Well , well , well , are we surprised ? Are we surprised ? Joe Biden has pardoned his son , hunter ? Now , I wasn't really going to talk about this , because you're going to hear it all over the social media , all over the news , everywhere today . Everybody's going to be talking about it , so you're going to hear it a lot .
You're going to hear the same things over and over , so I really didn't want to contribute to the same thing over and over . However , I will point you to a New York Post article written by Miranda Devine . If you don't follow Miranda Devine on the New York Post , you should , or anywhere .
She is actually where she is actually , apparently , some Hunter's attorneys let's see , I'm trying to find it . Let's see , basically , hunter's attorneys wrote a big document explaining why Hunter should be pardoned , pulling at the heartstrings of blah , blah , blah , and it was leaked to the media . I think , yeah , it was leaked to the Washington Post .
So let's go back and see if I can find it . Let's see , I'm almost there . Hang with me . Hours after Joe Hunter okay , hours after Joe and Hunter dined at a Nantucket restaurant named , appropriately enough , the Brotherhood of Thieves . I mean , come on these people , they are in your face .
The Washington Post published excerpts Saturday from a document written by the first son's lawyers that made the emotional case for his pardon , with the power to pardon Hunter at least until his presidency ends on the January 20th . The 52-page paper would seem to have been written for an audience of one , the Oval Office guy vacationing with his family on Nantucket .
But why would Hunter and his lawyers feel the need to leak the heartstrings-tugging document when he was right there with his dad every day , hanging out in the borrowed mansion of private equity billionaire david rubinstein , poking around in bookstores buying anti-israel books and watching the town christmas tree lighting ?
Clearly , the document was a carefully crafted excuse created to help Joe fool the American people into believing that Hunter was a victim of political persecution who suffered due to his father's power and influence .
Wow , if you read the excerpts of the lawyer's mournful missive titled the Political Persecution of Hunter Biden , you would see echoes in Joe's Sunday night statement . You would see that they hold grave fears for Hunter's future now that the dreaded Donald Trump is taking power .
Okay , I think too that Joe Biden pardoned him because he knew Trump would more than likely pardon him and he didn't want Trump to look good . That's my take . That's my take , but we're going to move on , because you're going to hear all about it today . Maybe more revelations will come out that we don't know about . I don't know . But are we surprised ?
Hell , no , we knew this was going to happen . I'm surprised . I'll be surprised if joe biden doesn't hit the nuke button on the way out the office of his last day too . Oh , by the way , trump , here you go , smash the new the nuke button for russia . Oh , I know it doesn't go like that . I know that . Come on .
All right , we got two more stories to get to , and and then we'll wrap it up for the day . This is our last week of the podcast . All right , here we go for the next story . Embarrassed Spotify users vow to hack their wrapped results . They'd rather be in jail than reveal the truth . That's kind of drastic . You can see mine . I don't care .
I'm not embarrassed about my music . However , I'm going to tell you right now my rap is going to be the same thing in 2024 than it was in 2023 . Nothing has changed with me . I did not add anything new that I know of , maybe some Christmas tunes , but yeah , I'm just the same old . Same old kind of girl Structure and routine . Nothing new for me .
All right , the countdown is on to expose your most humiliating music search history . Spotify wrapped is drooping drooping soon , I think they meant dropping soon and some music lovers are rigging their results so they can show off their most listened tracks of 2024 , free of judgment . Why would somebody do this ? Why would somebody ? This is ridiculous .
If you're trying to hack your own rap spot , you're stupid . I mean , come on , is this the kind of time you have on your hands ? Gonna hack Spotify HQ before Spotify raps come out ? Because I would rather be in jail than have my top genre be country . One person wrote on X and of course they have to put in parentheses . Formerly Twitter .
This was just one of many tweets about the anticipation of the upcoming Spotify rap 2024 drop . Imagine hating me , a girl who is simply in her room trying to change the trajectory of her Spotify rap before it's too late . Another Spotify user said Just realized Spotify rap is coming soon . I have amazing taste in music so I don't need last-minute changes .
Okay , whatever , you can go . Finish reading that . I think it's a funny article . It's actually fairly long for a silly , light-hearted article . All right , next up and then we will end it with a question of the day . All right , the next one . This is interesting . I want to try this , and I also thought of Keith Malinak when I read this .
I don't know if he's tried this or not . I've never heard of it . It's to help you sleep , or get to sleep faster or something , and I would like to try this because sometimes , every once in a while , I will go through a stage where I can't sleep . So using the Alpha Bridge hack can help you fall asleep faster . It even works on planes .
Airplanes can be some of the noisiest and most uncomfortable places to try and catch some sleep , but there's a game-changing trick that could have you flying off to dreamland in no time , even from 30,000 feet . Dubbed the Alpha Bridge Method , the technique is thought to have been originally developed by the US Navy for pilots who needed to snooze on command .
Well , all right . And of course , somebody on TikTok is telling us about it . The sleep hack has taken the TikTok by storm , thanks to part in psychologist Erica Terblanc , whose viral video has amassed 1.4 million views . Man , that just is crazy . Am I missing out on TikTok ? Do I need to ? No , I do not need to get on TikTok .
No , thank you , I do not want to go viral . Okay , fans are raving about its effectiveness and sleep experts say there's science to back it up . Well , let's get to it , shall we , instead of reading all this other garbage ? Okay , what is the alpha bridge method ?
In her video , erica breaks down the technique to help users cross the alpha bridge and drift into sleep . Here's a quick rundown . Number one get comfortable as possible , either lying down in bed or sitting on an airplane or train . So , if you're sitting , get as comfortable as you can , close your eyes and count to 30 .
Number three open your eyes , but only a little , creating a half moon effect , and count to five . Number four go back and repeat steps two and three . So close your eyes , count for 30 seconds . Open your eyes just a little bit , okay , uh , let's see open eyes , but only a little , creating oh , and count to five , so open 30 , I mean close .
Okay , let me start over . You know what I'm saying ? All right , let's start over . Number two close your eyes and count to 30 . Number three open your eyes , but only a little , creating a half moon effect , and count to five . Number four go back and repeat steps two and three .
Number five close your eyes one more time and concentrate on your slow breathing , inhaling and exhaling through your nose . All right , so that's it . That's that's it . That's the alpha method . So I would like for you to try it . How does it work ? The alpha bridge method isn't just an internet hack .
It's proven sleep tragedy just tragedy strategy embraced by many looking to relax their minds and bodies before bedtime . All right , here we go . It uses a series of eye movements combined with mental relaxation tactics that boost alpha brain wave activity . I didn't know there was such a thing .
These waves are important in calming the mind and supporting the transition to sleep . While some may find the method effective on its own , experts suggest pairing it with a solid sleep hygiene practices for the best results . Okay , well , there you go . There's more to that story , if you like . All right . Question of the day .
Okay , I am stealing this question from John Swank from Brutally Honest Podcast and Give Me Liberty Media Group . I was a guest on his podcast yesterday . I hope you all go catch that . It's on Rumble and Spotify . Brutally honest , please go catch it . The video portion is on Rumble . The audio , obviously , is on Spotify .
Okay , we were talking about Nancy Mace and we were talking about the San Jose volleyball team and how we've gotten here with men play , how we've almost come to accept that men can play in women's sports . And he asked me , he wanted to know , why are the conservative men out there not uprising and causing a fit over this ?
And I think I would like to know the same thing . I think because of January 6th , everybody is afraid to make a ruckus because they don't want to be put on a list . They saw how easily people can be thrown in prison and kept there and they don't .
Maybe they're the only breadwinner for their family , maybe they don't have the means and money to go through the legal battles , I don't know . But because who knows what would happen ? I mean , look what they did to those people for J6 .
I mean , john , kind of put it to where you know if you cause a ruckus you might get a slap on the wrist , you might go , you know they might arrest you , but you're going to be out that same day and that's probably true . But I mean , who wants to go through that mess , right ? Probably true . But I mean who wants to go through that mess , right ?
And I think that's probably the reason a lot of these people are not uprising and doing anything and protesting like that , because , for one , republicans don't protest , conservatives people , they just don't protest , unless it's on social media saying I'm not going to buy any more Bud Light , I guess . If that's your protest , ok .
But you know , as far as taking any real protest action like Kelly J Keene does , I just don't see that happening with us on the right and I don't know why that is . I think we're just too afraid to you know , the word gets out with our jobs . We may be fired . You know , who knows what you know and nobody wants to go through that .
They would rather just stay to themselves , because that's what conservatives and Republicans do . We want to mind our own business and not get out there . That's and that is the reason . That's my answer to the question . What do you think ? What the reason ? That's my answer to the question . What do you think ? What is yours ? What is your answer to that question ?
All right , I gotta go . I know that was a pretty heavy question , but I thought it was a good one and something that we need to look at . All right , I have to go . Thanks for listening and I will be back again tomorrow , god willing . All right , bye .
