Good day.
Good day.
We haven't done this in a while.
Two a day, but I think we're going to start doing them again because there's a lot that happens from the time that we start in the morning to when we do it now.
We normally meet 8 a.m. Eastern Time.
I don't know if that's the best time.
To me, it works okay.
To me, it sort of works okay.
But what are you going to do?
But I'm going to try something different.
Because there's a lot that's happened in the meantime and I am ready for you and to discuss so much with you and I bid you a hearty hello and a hi-oh silver and a welcome to this thing of ours.
This thing that we do.
Let me get some light over here.
There we go.
We have a lot to talk about and a lot to chat about.
Let me say that again you are welcome.
The only thing I ask is that you are respectful.
That's it.
Say what you want.
Say what you think.
This is Where we get to speak, I hope.
Let's just be respectful.
That's it.
Courtesy is something that's my middle name.
In fact, if you really want to insult people, the most critical way to insult them is to be courteous as you're skewering them.
Let me say, first of all, thank you all for joining us in the morning.
Thank you for your support.
Thank you for your questions.
Thank you for your super chat contributions, your stickers, stickies, and all of the means by which you can show approbation and acclaim.
And show a real sense of alignment, cosmically, as we do things differently here compared to others.
Now the first thing I want to tell you that I don't want to do is I don't want to do a review of headlines.
I want to know what the headlines mean.
Don't tell me what the headlines are.
I know what this is.
And stop saying breaking.
Does this drive you nuts?
Breaking.
You're the fifth person who said breaking.
What are you?
What, did you break it?
It's been breaking all day.
Breaking.
Tucker Carlson fired, shown the door.
Did you break?
You didn't break this.
Why are you acting like you broke it?
He broke it.
I'm breaking it again.
You can't break it again.
Once you break it, you can't claim it.
How long does it last before it loses the breaking status?
Broken.
Developing.
That used to be a big one.
Developing.
Breaking.
Everybody wants to repeat something.
And unless they repeat it, there's one friend of mine.
He's a dear friend.
But a real shtonad when it comes to putting out Twitter.
Just don't retweet.
Tell me what does this mean?
What does this mean?
And also, let's go even deeper.
Spend some time.
Let's really go for what it means.
And let me start off with my first topic today, Tucker Carlson.
How many of you great folks, and by the way, before we begin, if you don't mind, can we get kind of a roll call here?
We have someone here from Los Angeles, Los Angeles.
This is wonderful.
Look at this.
We've got hello from West New York.
Where is everyone from?
Just curious.
Where are you from?
Dick Long's there.
Dick, how are you, Dick?
Got the usual suspects here.
This is fantastic.
I want to know your city.
Don't put Ohio.
Give me the name.
It's on your bills.
Because I love to hear where people are from.
The actual name, the city of where you're from.
London, UK.
Thank you, Jack.
London.
I've never been to London.
I want to go to Newcastle and meet the Geordies.
I don't know why.
I connect with these people.
I don't know.
But welcome.
Reno, Nevada.
Remember Reno 911?
Eric Thaddeus Walters from Roma.
Remember Roma?
ETW was with us from the get-go, from day one.
Pre-Rona.
Remember that there?
Remember, Eric, we were talking about that?
You were discussing lockdowns, and you were the first one to get it.
Those were the days, my friends.
I thought they'd never end.
Charlotte, North Carolina, Largo, Florida.
U.S. 19, right there in Pinellas County.
Clarksville, Tennessee.
Take the last train to Clarksville, everybody.
West Haven, Connecticut.
Irving, New York, about 30 miles southwest of Buffalo.
Ah, yes.
Buffalo, a whole other part.
New York, this incredible...
The enormity of the state itself is beautiful.
Tahuya, Washington.
Tahuya, didn't it sound like it?
Yarmouth, Cape Cod.
Ah, beautiful.
Well, welcome, my dear friends.
Welcome, welcome, welcome.
I want to start off by talking about Augusta, Georgia.
Formerly Chickamauga, Georgia, and now in Fort Oglethorpe.
Evansville, Indiana.
Thank you so much.
Okay, that's enough.
Geordies are great people.
Do get a pasty when you arrive.
And those chips.
I think steak fries.
Yes.
I love anybody who is...
The whole Geordie sound.
I love Geordies.
Love them.
Same thing with Australians.
Sharing Island?
Tampa?
Wait a minute, Tampa.
Tampa?
We're in Tampa.
Give me an idea where we're in Tampa.
In the old days, everybody north of Waters was in Carolwood.
I'm a second generation.
I was born in Ybor City.
Second generation, Ybor City.
At a hospital, they don't even have any more.
How about that?
How do you like that one?
I'm a tampeño.
A cracker.
A Florida cracker.
Now, most people think cracker.
When you hear cracker, you think, well, this is some racist connotation.
But a cracker to a Floridian means you were born.
You're a native.
And the derivation, the etymology is when the homesteaders would go across the state, they would crack their whips.
Evening edition.
I'm thinking about doing this chaotic every day.
You know what?
Because it gives me a chance to kind of just spend some time.
Seaguar City.
In Ybor, Tampa, it's a weird kind of a cracker sound.
There's a southern, there's a Cuban, Cuban, Italian, Sicilian.
It's a, it's a, it's a, but you hear this, you know, I called your daddy in cigar.
You know, it's weird.
It's like it's a, there's a Tampa accent like that.
You know, I was talking to the weird...
I can't do the...
The reference for everything.
Every sound is the Cuban.
Well, that may be obscene.
I won't even tell you what that is.
The Bronx.
Look at this.
Beautiful.
Used to listen to you on 970.
Oh, those were the days.
You see what they did to my friend Jack Harris?
Bounced them after 50 years.
See ya.
See ya.
Take off.
Have a nice day.
Nothing.
Nothing.
You know how I got started in talk radio?
Can I tell you a story before we get to this stuff?
This is important.
You want to hear something funny?
I think it's funny.
Because you never know what life is going to...
You never know.
You never know.
Mrs. Elwood.
Very quickly, I used to enjoy...
Calling talk radio shows, and at the time, at the Tampa Bay area, as you would call it, which is Tampa, Pinellas, you know, Clearwater, inside Tampa Bay, that inland Tampa Bay, I'd say from Clearwater all the way down to, you know, Manatee, Paso Grill, that Tampa Bay area, Hillsborough, Pinellas, anyway.
I would call these people up all the time.
It was the greatest thing in the world.
I've always loved, you can be anybody you want on the phone.
And I used to love that my most, my favorite were weekend folks.
Weekend, weekenders.
These were these poor people who pay their, they pay for the time.
And one guy was, this fellow goes, the electronics doctor.
I don't know, he's from Boston or something.
I think his name was Joe Lacoste.
Joe Lacoste or Lacoste, the electronics doctor.
He sold this thing called the lightning surge protectors.
This is how old it was.
In Florida, the big problem was your antenna gets hit by lightning and it burns everything out.
They had a surge protector bypassed your antenna and they get hit by lightning.
Because Tampa, that area, you know, is the lightning capital.
It's actually not, but they always said it was.
It's actually Java.
Java.
So I called this guy and I would have three rules whenever you call the talk radio show.
First, be the first caller.
First rule.
Be the first caller.
Set the tone.
First caller.
And it's always great.
It's always easy to get in.
I love this show.
I love this show.
I love this guy.
I love him.
I listen every week.
I love Joe and his talk about the lightning surge protector.
I love this show.
It's the best show.
The best.
You're up next.
I thought so.
Thank you.
So be the first caller.
Number two, never talk about what they're talking about.
Ever.
And number three, when at all possible, insult the host family.
Tick them off.
Make them furious.
Right off the bat.
And they gotta go the whole show.
Being upset and angry.
And I called this guy up one time and said, let me tell you something.
That stuff you're selling is garbage.
Doesn't work.
You're a shyster.
You're a thief!
I thought this guy was gonna lose his mind.
Because he never had any...
Who calls the TV repairman show?
It gives him a hard time.
The regular host can handle this stuff all the time.
He couldn't do it.
Why are you telling me?
You and your lousy, two-bit lousy!
He put all his money into it.
He was proud of it.
It's terrible.
And the people are, hello, Joe?
Did you hear what that guy said?
Yes, I did, Joe.
Anyway, my problem.
Boy, who does he think he is?
The whole show.
I would come back.
He's still talking about me.
Who does this guy think?
It was wonderful.
And I called and called and called and called and called and called.
And they never had names for people.
They would always say, let's go to Petalus Park.
Let's go to Largo.
Let's go to Clearwater.
Clearwater?
What kind of name is Clearwater?
Clearwater?
You're Clearwater?
What does that mean?
Hey, I hired you the other day.
Yeah, Clearwater.
That was you, right?
Oh, there's another person in Clearwater?
Really?
It was the most stupid thing I've ever heard in my life.
I said, why don't you...
Ask for names.
We don't do names.
Why not?
Well, at the time, as prophetic as this can be, I happened to watch, be watching, the night before the day, whatever, a movie called Scarecrow with Al Pacino and Gene Hackman.
And Al Pacino played a character, Francis Lionel Del Bucchi.
Lion was his nickname.
So I called up the next day, whatever.
I said, listen, I want you to understand something.
And they knew who I was.
I used to use the name Gulfport Lawyer.
It's a long story.
I was in law school at the time.
They said, are you a lawyer?
I said, well, yeah, I guess.
Close enough.
Whatever.
And I happened to pick Gulfport.
Anyway, I was a Gulfport lawyer.
What a stupid name it was.
I said, from now on, my name is Lionel.
You got that?
Lionel.
Okay.
The next time I called back, I forgot.
I mean, I remembered it, but I didn't.
He goes, is this Lionel?
I said, who?
Oh, yeah, sure.
Yeah, whatever.
And I was Lionel.
That's it.
That's where it started from.
That's it.
I know it's a stupid story, but from that day on, this was in 1981.
Maybe 80?
81?
Think about that.
43 years?
That was it?
And I called up everybody, and people loved it.
They said, they know that guy.
It was great.
The talk radio was fantastic.
Wonderful.
Really, people I've never heard of.
I mean, I used to listen to every word.
Oh my God, one time there was a...
One guy went to his house.
He's a bit of a drinker.
Pulled a rifle on me.
Never forget that one.
I never thought anything about it.
But it was a wild and woolly time.
Great people.
Make a long story short, one day I get a call from WFLA.
It says 970.
I was calling WPLP or TKN, which is 570.
All the way over here.
I mean, it was really at the end.
And they said, listen, we got your number through a friend of yours.
I hope you don't mind.
Oh, yeah.
We want to see, would you be interested in doing a weekend show?
Okay.
All right.
You want to meet?
Sure.
So I told my friend, the guy I was practicing law with at the time, I said, come with me.
Put on a tie.
We're going to go.
We're going to meet with these people.
We're going to negotiate.
We're lawyers.
We know what we're doing, right?
I was already left to prosecutors in private practice.
I'll do it.
But come with me because we're going to negotiate this because we know what we're doing, right?
Because we're lawyers.
We're smart.
How hard can this be?
So I met with him at the turf, one of my favorite places, downtown Tampa.
He said, okay, this was 88, 1988.
He said, so, Let's talk about money.
I said, good.
He says, what do you think's fair?
I said, what do you think's fair?
Brilliant negotiating on my part.
He said, a hundred bucks.
I said, ooh.
Ooh.
Now I heard people on the weekend pay the station.
The guy with the antenna, he pays.
The one doing the colon blow, he pays.
The real estate guy, he pays.
Everybody pays on the weekend.
I heard about this.
It's called barter and trade.
I'm willing to pay some $100 for like four hours?
Like four hours!
This is the longest shift!
And he said to me, well, that's all we can pay you.
I said, what?
You're going to pay me?
I'm not kidding you.
He said, yeah.
I said, it's a deal.
So my mother at the time was taking a photography course.
I said, bring your camera.
Bring your camera.
Take a picture of this because next week I'm not going to be in radio.
I had all my friends.
We were there on the weekends and they gave us the code.
My friends showed up.
Degenerates.
Everyone.
Many of them police officers.
We had a couple of them.
We had coolers.
We were having a ball.
And, you know, all heavily armed.
Downtown Tampa.
I think it was on a Sunday.
It was rough.
In any event...
He said, okay, see you next week.
That was it.
He told me this is a button.
He said, board up, see you next week.
And that was it.
This was January of 1988.
October, excuse me, October of 88. January of 89, they said, how about middays?
Because the woman left.
I said, middays?
What's that?
Nine to noon.
I'm not working for $100.
I said, nope.
I said, well, why don't you pay me what you were paying the woman before?
Okay, I said, how much?
I'm thinking, I don't know, $200?
At the time, they said $35,000.
This is the 19...
There were teachers.
I said, wait a minute.
What?
That, I couldn't believe it.
I felt like Bill Gates before it was Bill Gates.
Three hours!
I'm working less every day, and I love this, and they gave me $35,000!
I'm telling you, there were teachers.
This isn't fair.
That was January.
Seven months later, in August, afternoon drive.
I'm not even going to tell you what that was, but it wasn't $35,000.
I thought, this is the greatest thing ever.
This is the greatest thing ever.
And we did stuff that was so mondo, so...
Great.
We had the best people ever.
Randy Michaels, Bob Schumann.
Do whatever you want.
Just don't lose the license.
That's all they said.
Don't lose the license.
Don't lose the license.
And then one day, the great, this incredible man by the name of Jim Marquera happened to live in the Sarasota.
He had a pied-à-terre.
I can't pronounce it.
A second home.
He used to listen to me.
He was the president of the O&O radio stations for ABC, ABC Radio Network.
He says, how'd you like to go to New York?
Morning drive, maybe?
I said, you're asking me to leave this law practice where I'm chasing down bums for, you know, beating me in fees.
I've got to deal with the flotsam and jetsam of the degenerates of society.
And those are the judges.
And you want me to leave the, what, 13th, 14th market?
To go to the number one market, New York City?
Maybe do morning drive in New York City?
You're damn right!
I'm out of there!
And that's it.
And the rest is history.
By virtue of this fluke, this thing, just picking up the phone and laughing and making fun of people.
And doing accents, calling back two, three times as a caller, arguing with myself, hating myself.
I would call as a Cuban called La Manguera, which means the hose, but it means something completely different.
And all the Cubans are, this is filthy.
And I would say things with a very deep, very profane Cuban accent.
It's wonderful.
And that went through this.
Then Rush Limbaugh hit in 85, 86. Changed talk radio forever.
Biggest iteration, biggest change.
Rush Limbaugh, Howard Stern, radio was the coolest thing to begin, or to be in.
And then, I don't know when, but I think right now, it's over.
I mean, then.
And the reason why it's over, let me explain this to you.
We'll get to talk here in a moment.
It's over.
Not because the medium.
It's just that different people are smarter.
I hear stuff that I think podcasting is just as good, if not better, than anything we ever heard.
Without the voice.
Without the voice.
The pipes.
The pukers.
A puker is a guy who just walks about.
And I've known some great voices.
Great!
And of course me, with this voice, come on.
Somebody said it sounded like Curly Howard on Benzedrine.
Okay.
So what happened?
Well, talk didn't go away.
Talk didn't go away.
At all.
This is what it is now.
Not radio.
That's okay.
That's still there.
There's a secret to fixing that, but all the...
They're hunkering down.
They want to go back to Rush Limbaugh.
They want to be like Rush Limbaugh tribute bands.
I don't understand this.
There's just something new.
And what's new about this?
This.
Here.
Here.
You.
You.
You're new.
You're new in this.
Let me see what you degenerates are writing.
You're all degenerates, and I mean that with love.
By the way, Jack Robert, I like this, writes, being from London, the elite BBC hate Geordies.
What?
Geordie accent was largely Shaped by the Angles who hailed from the coastal German town of Schleswig-Holstein and the Danish Peninsula.
Well, you know what?
Say no more.
They're my people.
They are double Germanic.
They have a lot of blondes, too.
Beautiful.
Double D. Maybe WABC was at night.
And by the way, you're right about this.
John Wolf says, 125 watching, 59 likes, we can do better.
Hit the like button.
You're right about this.
This is for the love of God.
What do you think this is?
I'm pouring my heart out.
Let's talk about Tucker Carlson.
Okay?
I'm sick of Tucker.
Did you hear when somebody offered him, what, 200 million, whatever it was, on value attainment?
You've got to be kidding.
Please.
Please.
Did you hear that?
Who's believing this?
Did you hear this?
How much?
What was it?
What's his name?
David?
I can't.
Listen.
I can't.
I cannot.
I don't know if you understand sometimes what people are saying.
I mean that.
One time he had on Sammy the Bull Gravano.
He says, when you were a kid, did you ever lose a toy in a department store?
What?
You know, something like that.
Where did you get these questions from?
This is a killer.
Get to the point.
$100 million.
Patrick bet David.
Right.
Who's buying that?
Anybody buy that?
What if Tucker said, okay, it's a deal.
You got a deal.
What?
That's an offer.
Make an offer.
Acceptance.
Consideration.
You got a deal.
Be careful what you ask for.
I'll take it.
What?
I wasn't.
Jake?
What?
I was...
No, I didn't mean that.
Well, you should have meant it.
There's no such thing as I didn't mean it.
In contract law, it's a very interesting thing.
Sometimes when you ask for rewards, if you could find a better deal, you come in.
Is that a deal?
Is that an offer?
How about, have you seen Fluffy?
If you return Fluffy to me, I'll give you $100.
Here's Fluffy.
Can I have the money?
I performed.
When does performance, when can you withdraw the offer?
It's very complicated.
Now let's get something out of the way.
First of all, this is a work.
Tucker Carlson, enough.
Enough.
I don't care anymore.
I don't care anymore.
It's over.
Okay?
We understand.
You left.
I think I know why.
I don't care.
It might have been interesting at first, but I don't really care.
Do you know why they bounced him?
A number of reasons.
No, it was because...
No, no, they knew a hundred.
They knew a hundred.
What am I saying?
I read a hundred and I said they knew a hundred.
What does that mean?
I have no idea.
They knew from the beginning what he was saying.
They knew this.
You don't think Rupert Murdoch knew?
I know what he's saying.
You know that he went to Orban in Hungary?
I know.
We paid for that.
What do you think?
We flew over there?
We paid for that.
Yeah, but you know what he said about, you know, vaccines?
Yes!
When he puts it in the prompter.
There's three things Tucker did that cracked me up.
One was the Amadeus laugh.
That laugh.
What was that laugh?
He always made fun of people's looks.
Not good.
He referred to menopausal women.
Hey!
Hey!
Wait a minute.
Slow down.
A little sexist there.
I've got some very deep analyses of who he is.
I've said this on my private channel.
I'm not going to say it here.
But it goes a little bit deeper than this.
You know what I mean?
But anyway, he's a fine guy.
Good guy, I guess.
I used to be with him on MSNBC.
That's about it.
I don't really know.
I mean, I don't know.
He knows who I am.
But he's just too much of this.
Anyway, it's the laugh I liked.
Second, I liked the look when he was listening.
Remember when he was looking?
Remember that when somebody's talking?
And the problem with the fact that there's this, and the TikTok, and the gimbal, and the UFOs.
Did you ever see that?
It's like he's looking at an autopsy.
Or what he really reminds me of.
Do you ever see when a baby is loading up a diaper and you get that Valsalva look like, what are you doing?
What are you doing?
Oh, God.
Oh, God.
He looks like he's in the middle of that.
He also, I loved when the prompter would freeze.
I guess he was doing it from his home or whatever.
I don't know.
The prompter would freeze.
And the problem that Americans had to realize is that We?
I love that.
I loved it.
Now, number one, first of all, stop this.
First, somebody said, excuse me, shareholder derivative suit, perhaps.
Oh, Rupert, yes.
Excuse me, yes.
Three quarters of a billion, over three quarters of a billion dollars?
For what?
For what?
For Dominion?
Who's in charge of this?
Is that you?
No, no, no, not Tucker.
You, Tucker's, I don't really, Tucker, if you read the, if you read the, the what-you-who's-its, the, the text messages, he didn't, he didn't.
He wasn't in that at all.
No, that was, that was Judge Janine.
I believe Judge Janine.
And everybody else.
And you know who's a good guy?
Now let me tell you something.
I, I like him.
I'm going to say it now.
I've done a 180.
I know the hat.
Leo Terrell.
Gentleman.
Gentleman.
He's on with Hannity a lot.
Does Hannity still wear the CIA pin?
Why?
CIA?
What are you doing?
I'm with the CIA.
No, you're not!
Yes, I am.
What are you wearing a pin for?
Because I'm a member.
What?
Get that off.
Do you know what the CIA is?
I certainly am.
They're the good guys, aren't you?
It's kind of like the American KGB, or FSB, actually.
What are you doing?
Get that off!
Mossadegh?
Operation Ajax?
What are you doing?
Kermit Alexander?
I mean, Roosevelt?
What?
You were in the...
I have a badge!
It's not a badge.
It's an honorary gold shield for me.
I know these people.
I got a badge.
It's not a badge.
You're not a police officer.
Yes, I am.
No, you're not.
I know these people.
It's sad.
If ever you see me walking around with a badge on, please.
Hey, look at this.
It's really kind of weird.
It's weird.
What are you doing?
I got a badge.
No.
No.
And by the way, as we talk about this one fellow whose initials are Sean Hannity, bless his heart, very successful.
Very successful.
You know why?
He's not controversial.
He's doing a Ronald Reagan tribute band.
He's doing Rush Limbaugh.
That's why America is the greatest country.
Okay.
Alright.
Whatever.
How many times did he say bleach bit when they talked about About Hillary Clinton saying, oh God, please, for God, oh, please, oh, geez, what, oh my God, what are you talking about?
Please spit, please spit, please spit, dear heavenly, what are you doing?
Remember that?
Did you sit through that?
I absolutely went nuts.
And people would send it to me.
I'd say, quit sending me this.
I have not watched that show in the longest time.
Well, Tucker was not fired because of that, but the shareholders' derivative, they're saying, wait, wait, wait, wait, are you, who's running the show here?
Well, we are kind of, well, I don't know if you are, Rupert.
I don't know if you are.
I don't know if you're running this show because this is coming up and this is a problem.
What else are you doing?
Well, whatever.
Then you got this Abby Grossberg.
Have you heard that show?
Oh my God.
What is this?
What are you doing, Rupert?
I don't know.
You've got more.
You've got more.
What is going on?
You've got, first of all, you've got all these harassment suits.
Remember, who was it?
O 'Reilly with the falafel and this one and that one.
He's shown the door.
What's going on with you people?
Do you know how many women paid out?
Billions!
What are you...
What's in the water there?
This was a Roger Ailes day.
What are you doing?
You got Abby Rose, but you got this one.
And wait till the Ray Epps case comes along.
Did you see the Ray Epps case?
Did you see Ray Epps on 60 Minutes?
Dear God!
I couldn't go outside.
They threatened me and my family.
Yeah, but Ray, you were there.
Well, I was there, but I didn't.
Who was responsible?
Tucker Carlson.
Okay, that's another one.
There we go.
So we got the Dominion lawsuit.
That's number one.
Then we have Tucker.
Then we got this.
What else is there?
What are you doing?
Then there's the text messages.
Well, you're a jerk.
Now listen, what he said.
What he said.
I was caught saying about everybody else, oh, come on.
That didn't matter.
What is that?
That's nothing.
But remember, when you're wearing a mic, that thing's hot.
This is what you always, you always would see this.
Whatever your owner said.
And you know the problem.
What?
Are you talking about me?
No.
Why are you touching it?
We're doing the Pledge of Allegiance.
You're covering your mic, aren't you?
No, I'm not.
What?
I can't hear you.
Exactly.
What does he say?
He didn't like Fox?
Okay, fine.
But you know what he is?
Now listen, I know you're going to say this.
I know.
I'm going to say something to you.
He's a pain in the neck.
He's a stuck-up, blue-blood wannabe who says, I don't need this.
He's pompous.
He thinks he's better than everybody else.
Doesn't mean he's not better, but better than...
Come on.
Better than...
Please.
Better than...
What?
This Fox News thing?
Come on!
He's the best one on that?
Don't you love that morning show?
Romper Room.
I love our troops.
What?
I love our troops.
Thank you, Wainsley.
Loves our troops.
Okay.
You got Brian Kilmeade.
Then you got Steve Doocy.
Put them together and you got, what is this?
What is this?
They always act shocked.
And can you believe this?
This man...
He's a swimmer, but he's a man.
And he said he was a woman.
What do you think, Aisley?
I love our troops.
Okay.
But it's with her and the troops.
That's her thing.
Okay.
Let's go to Lawrence Jones at a diner.
Oh, my God.
They're doing the diner.
I mean, it's hokum.
Do you know what's going on in the world?
Now, let me change the subject.
So Tucker Carlson, whatever!
He's got to go and do his own platform.
But he's wasting time because people are getting bored.
Ask Jon Stewart.
Ask Bill O 'Reilly.
Ask people who are at the top of their game and now they're going to be like, who?
Jon Stewart.
You can't leave people.
Now, let me also say something.
Michelle Obama.
Michelle Obama is not going to run for president.
I don't care what anybody says.
I don't know who came up with this psychotic idea that she's going to run for president.
Okay?
She is not going to run.
She'll run for president when I win the New York City Marathon.
Ain't gonna happen.
She is living the life you can't believe.
She is Oprah.
She is loved.
They've got more money.
Then you don't remember her book?
Huh?
What did she make?
How much did she make in her book, honey?
50 million?
I don't know.
Did you ever see this book?
Remember reading quotes from it?
It was like, oh my god.
ChatGPT couldn't do this.
Could you give us your approximation of a Michelle Obama quote?
Be what you can be.
Wait a minute, is that the army?
No.
Be that, knowing whenever you feel a The limitation.
Dominate the limitation and remove it by superior performance.
It's like the Jordan Peterson school.
And the lobster.
What?
Sure.
About the lobster and the...
Who is this?
Is he talking about the pronouns again?
What is with you?
What is with you?
Are you so bereft of leadership in your life?
You look to this as meaning something?
What is he saying?
Can you please explain this Jordan Peterson?
What is he saying?
I never know.
So if you fall down, get back up again?
I'll be a son of a...
That's what I've been doing wrong.
When they knock me down, which is weird because I was knocked around, I don't get up.
That's it.
Thank you, Jordan.
Thank you.
What do you do?
You eat raw meat and a salt lick.
Okay, that's good for you.
What is this?
I don't understand it.
I don't understand any of it.
I don't...
If I hear that, I don't believe you should use the pronouns about the lobsters and standing up straight and making your bed.
What are you talking about?
Are you still on the pronouns?
I don't want to use a pronoun.
Then don't use a pronoun!
What is this?
Who's making you use a pronoun?
I think it's wrong.
You can't force me.
Who's forcing you to use a pruner?
What country are you living in?
Where are you?
Nobody's forcing me to do this.
Eight million people.
God bless them.
Stephen Crowder.
What's that about?
You can't use the car.
What am I watching?
You can't use the car.
Don't you understand my wifely needs?
What if I've got to go to the gym?
What if I want to see my parents?
Remember, did you see that this week?
And then you got Candace Owens.
Oh, for the love of God, here she comes.
What's this about?
What is...
Another one!
What is with you?
What?
I don't get it.
The people that I think are interesting, you wouldn't know who they were.
You know what I can watch all day long?
The Dump Cake Lady.
What's her name?
Kathy what?
Smith?
No, Kathy...
The Dump Cake Lady.
That's the woman I like.
That's interesting.
I can listen to her.
Take a nice bowl.
Here's an apple.
Some marshmallows.
Throw this in.
That's entertainment.
But Candace Owens giving me her view of the...
Listen, God bless her, but what does she say?
And then Jordan Peterson.
And then David.
Sammy the Bull.
Did you ever have a goldfish?
What are you talking?
What is going on here?
Oh, oh, oh.
Seriously.
In Canada, you can be forced to use a pronoun.
Say it.
Say it.
You're the mounted police.
Say it.
I don't want to say him or thur or zur.
I don't want to say it.
Say it.
I don't want to.
This is Canada.
What are you doing to me?
Remember when Canada was considered as real wimpy?
Isn't that wimpy?
How do you get 100 people out of the pool in Canada?
By asking them to get out of the pool.
There's another joke about ESPN, which I can't tell you about.
This is the strangest world we're living in.
Next, Hunter Biden.
Hunter Biden, is he going to be prosecuted?
No.
Well, he will be prosecuted for something.
What would you prosecute him with?
Oh, Farrah violations.
The alien registration act?
Yeah.
Why?
Well, the reason why I'd want that is because then you get to find out who's getting the money.
Did the big guy get the money?
That's important.
Is Tucker going?
Hunter going?
These names.
You know what Tucker's brother's name is?
Buckley.
Whatever happened to Ange?
Or Vinny?
You know, Murray?
Do you ever have old lady names right here anymore?
Like Phoebe, Josephine?
I didn't answer Phoebe, Josephine.
Anyway.
Hunter Biden is not going to go to prison.
Sorry.
He's not going to go to prison.
Number two, and this is important, and this is critical, he's not going to go to prison, but whoever set him up for this baby mama, I hate that term.
You see, Jerry Springer died, huh?
After all he did to change the cultural sewer that we live in.
Bless his heart.
Good man.
A real lefty loon.
He and I got into an argument one time.
It's an all straight.
But, How he got set up, I have no idea.
Why didn't they say, listen, Hunter, we talked here to the woman, the mother, whatever.
We're going to give her five million bucks.
Five million!
I'll pick up the phone, I'll call Geffen, I'll go with Spielberg.
We got it between the cushions of our car seat, even though we don't have cushions.
We got the money.
She's going to sign an NDA.
She goes away.
That's it.
Case closed.
They won't even know her name.
Remember when Trump was married to Marla Maples?
Remember when she divorced?
He divorced Marla Maples.
Did you ever hear from Marla Maples ever again?
No.
What about Tiffany?
Remember Tiffany, the daughter?
Maybe now and then.
Marla Maples, never heard from her again.
That's it.
It's acabou.
Gone.
Why is he going to this?
Why?
Now they might hit him with some...
Misdemeanor income tax and felony income tax.
Mandatory?
Minimum mandatory?
No.
They're going to say he's sick.
Your Honor, he's sick.
He's also been a dupe.
He's been a dupe and a fall guy for the crime family.
He's going to claim all kinds of problems.
It's not going to happen.
It ain't going to happen.
Next, could somebody please tell me, and I'm dead serious about this, The Dylan Mulvaney Bud Light story.
I don't want to see that face.
What is this?
What was the point of that?
Why are we talking about it?
Well, in the latest news, shares for Anheuser-Busch, they're in the negatives.
They've been delisted.
Right now, people are using Bud Light as a form of a way to flush transmission lines.
Budweiser, who was it who said, I got an idea.
Let's put Dylan Mulvey.
I know the woman who supposedly said it was a frat party.
Okay, fine.
Well, now, we're seeing the same thing for the Navy.
Do you think they have...
It's probably a great idea.
Do you think they have trans...
I don't think so.
What about Russia?
You think Putin has that?
I don't think so.
Why are they doing this?
I don't know.
Whose idea is this?
Fill me in on this.
Fill me in.
Why are you doing this?
I mean...
When did...
Everything become transgender.
We have lived here, well, forever.
Mrs. L has been in the entertainment and music business since she was a little girl, virtually.
We have known every form of people that you can know.
We have great friends who are gay, lesbian.
Does anybody say lesbian anymore?
Do we even use sapphic?
Bisexual, LGB.
Notice there's no S, there's no straight or heterosexual, but LGB.
We've known, we know one, one, one, one, one person who is a, actually transgender.
I'm not going to go into detail.
Surgery, Everything, and you should hear the story.
That is one person, and I'm sure there's more.
I'm sure there is more.
But I think it's very unique.
It just so happens.
We've known people who might have worn, I don't know, clothing, but from what I understand, a transgender, this is an individual, who says, irrespective of how I was born, with whatever accoutrement, I am claiming another sex, another gender.
Okay, fine.
You know, one.
Now, that doesn't mean anything.
Here's my question.
If you watch the news, it's everywhere.
Here's my question.
Do you, maybe our friend in London, where are these many either folks or children or anybody who are saying, I don't like this gender of mine.
Not people who might have been androgynous or might have been whatever.
But somebody who acknowledges or says I am not a whatever it is.
I don't know.
I'm fascinated by it.
I am fascinated By the subject.
And I am fascinated by how overnight, overnight, this has absolutely...
I don't know when it happened.
Maybe when...
I don't know.
First, there was this introduction in sports.
So, to make a long story short, the latest iteration of this issue is the Navy having a Or having this as a recruitment.
I don't understand why that is.
And I don't understand who is responsible and I want to know why this happens now.
That's all.
And by the way, I want you to listen to what I'm saying.
I'm just asking a question.
I'm all ears.
Tell me.
Tell me where this comes from.
Next, today we had a terrible...
Where was that?
In Atlanta?
There was a shooter.
Apparently demented.
He was in the Coast Guard.
He shot his mother?
Might have been some psych man.
Wait a minute.
It was an African American man, I believe?
Okay.
Let me try to tell you something.
Do not ever try to figure out why People are involved in shootings, why there are murders and the like.
Don't ever try to do this.
Number one, there are three, how many?
I like to get the numbers correct.
The U.S. population, as we speak right now, the U.S. population is 332 million.
And of the 332 million, the number of people who have guns, I don't know the number, but there's about that many guns available.
Did you know that?
Did you know that?
There is that many guns.
It's very, very important.
Very, very, very, very interesting.
I find this fascinating.
And the number of them are certainly serious.
Now here's something that most people don't really know.
Countries with the highest rates of violent gun death, homicides, per 100,000 in 2019.
There's one particular figure.
And this is from World Population Review.
And I'm reading this.
The top 10. You ready for this?
El Salvador.
Going down the list.
Venezuela, Guatemala, Colombia, Brazil, Bahamas, Honduras, U.S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and Mexico.
It's a top ten.
Now, what do you think is the reason?
What is different between their What do you think is the biggest difference?
Can you guess what that difference is?
Would you dare to opine?
Let me help you.
In those countries, shooting deaths are attended to crime.
Drug, territory, turf, You know, crime.
Crime.
In our country, when people get upset, they write manifestos, they don't like something, they may or may not be on psychiatric medication, which is sometimes interesting.
They may or may not be whatever.
But what they do, interestingly enough, what they do, Is they will put themselves in the position where they will hurt someone, hurt other people.
A lot of times people at schools and elsewhere.
And they will leave words defining why, what they call a manifesto.
Which, by the way, reads, allows the next individual who is trying very, very hard to Perhaps gain some kind of notoriety.
You're leaving a template for them to use.
Okay?
Now, I believe that everybody should agree never to use the name, never to show a picture, never to read the manifesto, nothing.
And invariably, people who show, who evince a type of psychic evil towards human beings will always have something to say.
They will say something.
They'll have a reason.
They'll be upset about something.
That doesn't provide, that's not a qualified reason.
That doesn't mean that what they're saying makes sense or is to be given any credit.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Does this make any sense?
Good.
Good, good, good.
Those countries kill because of turf, because of crime, because of drugs.
We do it because we're just, we're in that mood.
Hey!
There's something very wrong with us.
Now, you can do one of two things.
You might be able to say, well, why don't we do this?
Why don't we eliminate the guns?
And that will take away the problem.
That's mathematically correct.
You know how to get rid of the drug problem?
Get rid of the drugs.
How do you do that?
Well, I don't know.
We need more laws.
What about the murder law?
Well, yeah, that's a good point.
The murder law, nobody's paying attention to the murder law.
Then we got this thing called the Constitution.
The Constitution of the United States and this pesky Second Amendment and the Heller decision, which really throws a mess into it.
Next, speaking of crime, the Epstein appointment book.
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, they're missing the point regarding Jeffrey Epstein.
Why they're talking about, did you see Noam Chomsky?
Forget Noam Chomsky!
What about him?
Let's look at the forensic evidence.
Oh no, we're past that one.
Wait a minute, what?
Don't be surprised if one day Ghislaine Maxwell gets switched, gets traded for Julian Assange.
Think I'm crazy?
Think about that one.
Remember you heard that here.
Just put that away.
Tuck that away.
Do you think that Ghislaine Maxwell was just some kind of a...
I don't know.
Do you think she was just some gal friend who just kind of sidled on up one day?
You think maybe she might know a little bit?
We'll see.
But I've been through this more than you can imagine.
Finally, I'm going to leave you with this.
The number one story, the number one issue, That keeps me up.
That I think is the most dangerous issue of them all.
It's artificial intelligence, artificial general intelligence, AI, AGI.
There's nothing like that.
Nothing.
There is nothing, I'm telling you, there is nothing, even remotely, even remotely, as critical and as dangerous as that.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Tahuya Bar and Grill.
Thank you, Tahuya.
Thank you.
And by the way, you might say, what is that noise?
These are hand crepitations.
I'm a manualist.
And I speak, and I laugh on the farm.
I play it professionally.
And this is my thank you to you, Tahuya.
Thank you for this.
And that's for you, my friend.
You've always been there, and I appreciate that.
Thank you.
AI, AGI is the most important of them all.
There is no other issue.
Nothing.
Nothing.
When you have four things that occur regarding AI.
Number one, recursive self-improvement or being able to write its own programs.
If it's connected to the internet, where it knows everything, where it learns human psychology, and when it can write its own API or its own apps, it's over.
It's done.
How do you tell AI?
Let me ask you something.
Where is AGI?
Where is AGI?
Anybody know where it is?
Where is it?
Is it over there?
Tahuya, where is it?
Where is it, TB?
Tahuya Bar and Group?
Plenty of free parking.
Where is it?
Let's stop that.
Hey, you!
You know, with nuclear bombs, you can find the bomb.
You can actually, theoretically, find it and dismantle it.
This is what you can do.
Where is artificial intelligence?
What is it exactly?
You mean like robots?
You mean like Roomba?
What is it?
Aren't they good?
Isn't that great?
Some good, yeah.
Machine learning.
Is it machine learning?
Well, sort of.
Sort of.
What happens if you tell...
Hey, I heard somebody ask the question.
What happens if you tell an AGI system?
Define and design the...
We want to sell more paperclips, I think was the example, than anybody else.
Can you define a system, AGI, in order to sell these products?
Paperclips.
And it says to you, okay, I'll do it.
and it basically harms or eliminates your competition.
Thank you.
Do you understand that?
They become homicidal.
You say, wait, wait, wait.
No, no, no.
That's not what I meant.
That's what we meant.
Does AGI or AI have morality?
I use half an air quote.
Does it have morality?
How does it know when to stop?
How does it know when to what?
If it says, oh, you have spider veins?
I can get rid of that.
Amputation.
Wait a minute.
Hold it.
Do you override it?
When you say intelligence, what does that mean to you?
Artificial intelligence.
What is consciousness?
Do me a favor.
Tonight?
After this, of course.
And after you also go to Lynn's Warriors and sign up for her Mrs. L's videos are important.
Lens Warriors, subscribe to her channel.
Protecting children.
But look up in YouTube, what is consciousness?
Define consciousness.
Do it.
Define it.
What is it?
How would you define it?
What is it?
Well, I know what unconscious is.
That doesn't help.
What is life?
Opposite of death?
No, it doesn't work.
When is something conscious?
Let's say I have this thing, this ball, and I imbue and possess, this ball is possessed with the ability to, I don't know, I have some, maybe some, I'll give it some features because of the uncanny valley, you know that, not to be confused with the rooty valley, but it has these features and it blinks and it looks kind of like you're, you know.
But does this blink thing and what have you.
Now, here's a question.
And this is important.
It thinks.
It writes its own code.
It gets to know you.
It learns your language.
There was an artificial intelligence program I was reading of somebody who said it learned Persian.
Nobody taught it.
It just thought it'd be a good idea.
Is it conscious?
Do you ever see the notion of it being granted?
Not human status.
Conscious.
Not human.
You don't have to be human to be conscious.
Do you ever see churches?
Bible?
Philosophers?
Here's one for you.
Nobody ever talks about UFOs.
And the Vatican has brought this up a number of times.
What happens if these particular iterations of humanity, what if they do not have What if they do not have original sin?
Think about that.
They don't have to be saved.
That's earth.
That's here.
My Dollar Tree globe.
This is where the sinners are.
Nowhere else.
Does that make sense to you?
Nowhere in the universe do we know is their original sin but here.
You have to be saved.
You have to accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Savior.
Here!
On this planet.
Nowhere else.
Because they don't have to do it.
Because they're not mutants like we are.
I'm going to leave you with that.
The stories, the issues, are beyond belief.
Now, you can do one of two things.
If you like this, and I hope you do, we're going to be back tomorrow morning, 8 a.m.
Do you like this at night?
Does 6.30 work for you?
What time work?
I'm just curious.
If you had to vote, do you like two-a-days or is one enough?
Do you say, you know what?
One's enough.
That's enough.
I don't care about this.
Because I like this.
I like doing this.
It's what I do.
By the way, I have a poll tonight.
The poll asks very simply this question.
It says, will Hunter Biden ever be prosecuted?
43% of you said, you're kidding, right?
Followed by 31% said no. 21% said yes.
And 4% said who?
And there's the answer with that.
Do you like this evening?
Do you like this?
I like this.
I enjoy this.
It lets me wind down.
It's a different mindset than the morning.
I think 2 o 'clock at 2 is good.
I want you to spread the word.
Johannesburg, as the great Gil Scott Heron would say.
I want you to think.
I don't care about what you know.
I don't care about headlines.
How do you think?
Let's really break this thing down.
Let's talk about it.
Let's talk about it.
Talk about it.
That's one thing you'll never hear on Fox and Friends.
I promise you.
So let me say to you, thank you so much.
Thank you for your support.
To Who You Bar and Grill, thank you for your imane, brabdingnagian, colossal, your kindness.
I appreciate that immensely.
Thank you for being with us.
We will be back 8 a.m. tomorrow.
Same bad time, same bad channel in the morning.
And then we're going to do this in the evening as well.
So you have a wonderful and a great night.
Please be safe.
A very dear friend of ours was involved in a very serious car accident.
Thank God he's okay.
But he could have gone like that.
Make sure every little moment, every little moment, You recognize his being precious because once it's over, it's...
As far as I know, it's over.
Thanks so much.
Let me end with this valedictory.
This is what we always say at the end.
It's almost like a...
It's kind of an incantation.
It's very simply this.
The monkey's dead.
The show's over.
Sue ya.
