The Night Cap with Gary Jeff Walker -- 2/12/24

Welcome to the Night Camp. On seven hundred w LW Monday evening, February

twelfth, twenty twenty four, coming up on Valentine's Day. In the post super Bowl week, we will talk to the wild Man, Dennis Wildman Walker in just a few moments about my Kansas City Chiefs victorious for a second year a row in the biggest game of the year against the San Francisco forty nine Ers, the second time they've beaten the Niners in just four years at the Super Bowl, and we'll talk about all the wonderful things that transpired last night

at Allegiance Stadium in Las Vegas, as again the best player in the game, the best quarterback in the game, Patrick Mahomes, sorry Bengals Joe Burrow fans, the best quarterback in the day, and all of the hate for people who just can't stand Taylor Swift more than and really I don't care about Taylor, although she did look pretty good last night and did show some cleavage. We'll also be talking before the evening is through with our famous fitness trainer

Roco Costellano. Also on the bill, my good friend and yours Karen Cataline. Before midnight tonight she'll be spouting off, and there's plenty to spout off about. Dan was Second Amendment Guy, the author of Good Gun, Bad Guy, the three book series, appearing on a Loaded Mike YouTube podcast, and you can read him in a brand new article from AMMO Land just out today about the Biden administration's concentration for safer communities by taking guns away from law

abiding, legal citizens in black communities. Nice job, Joe. The propaganda therein Mark Bilts, who's a pastor on the left coast out in Washington, about America at war, and he says that we are already in one, and there's about to be widespread violence within our borders and the reasons why and

biblical prophecies behind that. Plus Scott Powell, who is just one of the most brilliant thinkers I know, and with his latest piece in The American Thinker, and you'll get to hear about all of that about communism in this country and what they've but why they tell, why they tear down statues, why they want to eliminate or rewrite history. All of that is part of a well orchestrated plot to take away this great experiment of liberty and freedom we know

as the United States of America. It's all coming up. Wild Man Walker is up next with Gary Jeff Walker. It's a Monday night nightcap on seven hundred wlwank Scott's blowing here with a quick reminder for you. If you missed part of my show, you can still listen to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app and hear what you miss Heaven only knows why you'd missed part of my show, and I don't know. I suppose there's legit reasons like sell Nuwa coma, or you had to run to the store for emergency grapes, you

know whatever. Just be sure to hit up my podcast and let me know you care. The Valentine's Day, skip the rush on cards, chocolates and flowers and give your loved one what they really want. And all right, getting into this nightcap PUD seven hundred WLW. Our first guest is one of our favorite guests. You've probably been exposed to his annex for years if you've

listened to Cincinnati Radio and a specifically sports reports about Cincinnati Radio. Sports of all Sorts, or as I like to call his segment, Sports for the out of Sorts. Dennis Wildman Walker rejoins us tonight, and wild Man, I gotta tell you I don't care how anybody else feels today, because I still feel great basking in the glow of my Kansas City Chiefs victory over the

forty nine Ers at Allegiant Field in Las Vegas yesterday last night. And I wanted to just start our conversation, Dennis, and I'll let you rip into me here in a minute when I get done about a text conversation I had immediately after the game with a good friend of mine who who I mean? You know, we don't agree on a lot, as you'll hear. And I just text him back. We talked earlier before the game. I said,

well, I get to relax again until next year. He said, make sure you send the forty nine Ers kicker a Christmas card lol, And I said, no, I will send the Chiefs player who blocked the kick the card. I said, special teams defense, Patrick Mahomes. He texts back, it was a bad low just ignoring everything I said about special teams defense and Patrick Mahomes. It was a bad low kick. The guy was not fifteen feet tall, no height on the kick. Oh well, like

I posted I wish both teams could have lost. It's okay. Number nine is back healthy all year, I hope, and that's all that counts. And I said, I'm very happy Frisco took their foot off the gas in the second half. Not impressed at all, I said, not expecting you to be. Why would I be? I said, not your team, like I said, Perty, just totally disappeared in the second half. Team Just dating the facts of the game, I watched, forty nine Ers played

a good first half. Your team sucked. Forty nine Ers played horrible second team. Your team did not. They played a good second half. All that counts. Glad I never had a dime on this stinker. And I finally I just said good night. Nothing you or anyone can say can dampen my enthusiasm. And then then I got the final, the final, the COUDI gras and I said, you always have quote next year. He said, they play Burrow next year owns them. We will wait and see.

So anyway, the reason for me reading this to you, wild man, is because I have a theory haters hate mostly because they're losers. What do you think? Absolutely? I couldn't agree more. When Patrick Mahalds threw that touchdown pass. The first person I thought, was you doing the happy dance? Oh? I was, man. You know, the wife had gone

to bed, she couldn't stay up for all of that. But I'm you know, paying rapt attention in front of the in front of the TV at home, my front row seat was really good football snacks that were mine, and a cocktail. And as that happened at the end of overtime and Mikole Hardman. I love the fact that Mikole Hardman didn't even realize that he'd caught the game winning touchdown. No, he was now. He was like a shock for a second, and then he taught the football. Who got the

football? Who got the football? Let me ask In response to this little text threat, I was reading you from my friend, who I'm not going to name because I don't want to embarrass him or point out that he's a hateful, hateful person, because the Bengals weren't in the Super Bowl, and that's that's all it was about for him. You know, it's not the Bengals. I don't care. They both suck. Bubba Burrow had been healthy. No, nobody but the Bengals would win, and that was his attitude.

But there was so much more besides Patrick Mahomes being the best quarterback on the field and in the league. It was more than then many people gave them credit for. And the reason that San Francisco did not did not proliferate their offense and keep the gas their foot on the gas in the second half was the adjustments Andy Reid made in halftime with that great Kansas City defense, don't you agreed. I mean their secondary is second to none, Kansas City.

Well, Andy Reid obviously made some adjustments and I was expecting that when they went in went out at halftime, and their defense, like you said, especially the secondary has been lights out all year. I don't know what Kyle Shanahan was doing. And with the with the offense in the second half,

I mean, everybody, everybody disappeared. Demo Samuel Samuel McCaffery, he disappeared, and you know Rock Purty, you know, couldn't you know, couldn't have anybody with a pass, he couldn't complete the pass, no ext But that was that was not because of bad offense on San Francisco's part. I don't believe it was because Kansas City made the adjustments and their defense was

clearly better than San Francisco's offense. The only chance, the only chance the forty nine ers had, and they did it in the first half, is they punched Kansas City in the mouth on the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. They did, and they looked dominant. But you know what, that's the first half. It was a tail two. It was the tail two halves. It really was San Francisco the first half, Kansas City the second half when it mattered. But I mean that's that's the way

it is. And I mean they were getting never getting a lot of push that the Chiefs were in the second half on Party. I mean, he didn't have much time back there to get rid of the ball, and he really did not. But you know, Patrick Mahomes should have not been the MVP. I'm sorry, he should have not been the MVP. Harrison Bucker should have been the MVP of that game. He kicked a fifty seven yard field goal, the longest and Super Bowl history. He made every field goal

and I think he was I think correct me if I'm wrong. I think he was perfect in the postseason for the Chiefs. He should have been the MVP, not Patrick Mahomes. I'm sorry. He should have been. He should have been the first kicker ever to win Super Bowl MVP. I almost go back to the Jets and when they beat the Coults and Super Bowl three. Jim Turner should have been the super Bowl should have been the super Bowl MVP, but they gave it to Joe Willie. But Harrison, Butcker should

have been the super Bowl MVP. I mean it should have been. I don't know. I mean Mahomes was brilliant in the second half, and he is the reason. You know, every time look every good but every time who listen, if you don't have Mahomes succeeding on third and fourth, fourteen and all these things, all the drives at the end of the game and in over time, if you don't have Mahomes just breaking out for a first down run all of a sudden because that's what the defense was giving him then.

Butcker's not in a position to kick field goals in Yeah, but how much pressure is that to kick the field goal? I mean, look at the guy, look at the guy for the forty nine ers he misses that extra point, they would end up winning the game. I mean, that's how important these kickers are. And Lucker, like I said, Butler, like I said in the postseason, I don't think he missed a field goal. That doesn't that doesn't resonate to be the MVP in the biggest game.

When he kicked the every field goal, and he'd kicked that fifty seven yarder, which is a Super Bowl record that might not e would be equaled again. And you knows, I don't know, but I just thought Butler should have been the Super Bowl MVP. Mahomes has already had his two, Why does he need another one? Well, and then fourth and one play, and at fourth and one play, Gary Jeff, what were the forty nine ers thinking, especially in Mesa and he was in the shotgun. Somebody should

have known he was going to run the ball. Yeah. Yeah, Well, and here's the thing, maybe they should have gone given the MVP. They don't do this. It's always an individual player. Maybe they should have gotten the MVP award to Kansas City's Special Teams because he's such a good point. You think, You think about that punt that the guy muffed and they fell on top of. You think about all of the different aspects of Kansas

City's special teams that were clearly superior to San Francisco's in that game. And but Patrick Mahomes, I mean, he's the architect. He's amazing. He does things that nobody else does. And brock Perty, you know, God help himself, was a first year player basically. I mean he played a little bit in twenty twenty two, but he basically a first year player, mister irrelevant, and he's in the Super Bowl, and there were all kinds of questions leading up to the game. Will the nervousness get to him?

I don't think the nervouses got to him. I think the Kansas City Chiefs, yes, Steve, Steve Spagnolia got to him in the second half half with his design and just constant pressure. Man, the pressure, constant pressure the Chiefs put on the forty nine Ers last night was I'll give it to the Chiefs here. They deserve to win. I give it to the Chiefs. I'll give all the props to the Chiefs. And you know, it wasn't a great super Bowl. It doesn't rank up there with Super Bowl thirteen

when it was the Steelers and the Cowboys. But like you said, like I said, and you said the tail of two halves, And you know it was entertaining. I mean I watched every snap. You know, he came right down to the to the end of the game. I mean, the they were you know, you I thought, maybe the forty nine ers defense will come up with the play here and you know, maybe go go forcing you know, another overtime we have to make they make a field goal.

But sure enough, mahmes, you know, and main least that guy, that guy that was wide open, was it Hardman? Yeah, Harman, Oh my god, Man and me and you could have caught that pass. There was nobody within twenty yards of the may That was because of the design of the player. They totally fooled the forty nine ers defense on that, yeah, you know. And that there's some things that Joey. I mean, they don't have a whole team of Joey boss, you know what

I mean. And then when they lost green Law to the Achilles though, just that fan freaky was that? How freaky was that? And I knew it was an Achilles the second he fell down, because it was one of those things where he just took a couple of steps and then fell down and you could tell it was the one. It was the left leg that just wasn't responding. I looked at I looked at Chris to two point zero. I said, that's an achilles injury. He just he just ruptured and that's

what happened. Thank you doctor Gary. Jeff Hey, this has really got to give you a case of the major You the odds makers are already you know, Talton, who's gonna win the Super Bowl next year? How can the forty nine ers be favored over the Kansas City Chiefs who are back to back Super Bowl champions? Talk about getting no respect? What do you think the odds are you personally of the Chiefs getting a three peat? I think they don't know. It's never do it. It's never it's never happened.

But you know, you hear that, you hear the players talking. You know, that's something they want and they and they have the guy, you know, they have the guy, well the quarterback thing that can possibly do it. And they make adjustments. They signed different players, they let certain players leave. I mean, when what was this tyre? Was that Tyreek Hill that was used to be on the Chiefs. Yeah, yeah, I

mean everybody cried and moaned and grown in Kansas City. When he left, like that was the end of the world, because that didn't matter to the Chiefs. You know, they found somebody else, a couple other guys, and went on went on with the business. Well, I mean, the thing is, and this reminds me a lot. And forgive me for the

analogy, wild man. You may agree or disagree the Chiefs. This this this team of Chiefs under its curtain structure I'm talking about from the coaching staff on down to the stars, reminds me a lot of the Chicago Bulls in the early nineties and in the when when they three peeded twice. You've got Patrick Mahomes, who I think is the NFL version of Michael Jordan back then. And you've got Andy Reid, the great architect, who reminds me of

Phil Jackson back in those days. What do you think of that analogy they've got? You know, when you make that comparison, they've got a team that likes each other, they like playing for each other, and they're all pulling for each other. And that's what That's what the Bulls were, you know. I mean, they didn't like you got them, They didn't their personalities were different, but they played when they got on the field. I mean, he's got on the basketball court, they were all business. They

were all business, kind of like the Big Red Machine too. They didn't all get along with each other, didn't hang out, but when they got on the field, it was all business back in the day. And that's what the Chiefs are. They get on the field, everybody pulls together. There's nobody you know, me, me, meme, I that kind of stuff. I mean, I think the the the Travis Kelsey thing has been

a way a bit overblown. When he bumped in Andy Reid. I mean, that's just a competitor wanted to And what happened with Travis Kelcey in the second half, He had a monster second half. There's another reason why the Chiefs won that game because of Travis Kelcey. And you know what they they pretty much well. Kristin McCaffrey was limited in the second half. He still had eighty yards rushing and eighty yards receiving. He's still the offensive player of

the year. Still was there. He ran and passed and caught for one hundred and sixty yards. So it's not like he didn't show up. He did, but the rest of the team they stifled. Yeah, sure did, they sure did. And that's why the teams are now two times Super Bowl champions back to back. Baby. Is there anything else on your radar this week before we let you go? Well, well tomorrow, pitchers and catchers report, Yes, sir, a red spring training and goodyear Arizona man.

And that's when I say pitchers and catchers, I am the size pitchers because that's where it's gonna determine whether the Reds win ninety games or win sixty games. The pitchers have got the good more than seven innings every out, and they've got to they start going sixth innings here and there. The bullpenalby war out, they really they really didn't do any They really didn't do anything as far as a signature starter they I mean, they got Brett Suter there

for the bullpen, but have they done enough? Is there enough there to justify saying okay, the Cincinnati Reds have a legitimate chance in the NL Central And then we've had, you know, and you're talking about I think three guys coming off injuries, Lodolo ass Craft and you got Hunter Green who's up and down. This is a big year for him. That guy has got to get it together for the money that they're paying him. They've got, he's got, he's got the step up. And you're gonna have injuries,

Gary, Jeb, you know that you're gonna have injuries. But it's gonna come down to the pitching staff for this team. For this team, then you know to take the next step. They've got the hitters, and there'll be some guys that get hurt, but they've got guys that replace them. They're so deep and in the infield it's ridiculously They've got then mix and match here and there and here and there. But they've got to get some pitching this year out of the not pitching, but and he's out of the starters.

They've got to. They've got to. I'm glad that you agree with my initial statement. Haters hate most of the time because they're losers. Thank you, wild Man. Well, the football scene is over now, let's focus on baseball. My friend, you got it. We'll talk soon. Thank you. Wild Man. Walker with us on the nightcap as we continue seven hunderd w l W so. Actually moonlighting is a shade tree mechanic. He's fixing his car right now and bye bye filing bye. By fixing it.

By fixing his car, I mean having it towed somewhere to be fixed. So I'm I and I'm the same kind of mechanic you are, Rocko when when I when there's what's that, Yeah, I've had my car toad, I've had my card toad. Now to the dealer. The dealer said, well, no, well we can fix it. What it's going to cost uh mega amounts of like money. So and they recommended somebody that can't fix my car. So I had a toad there and then and then Bray told us, well, we don't have anyone that has ever worked on your

nine speed transmission, so we cannot we cannot work on it. So now I had to have it towed back to my house. And now I'm I'm literally in the middle of having it toad. Right. So here's the thing. So you're having it toed back to your house where you are going to study. You're going to look on the internet. You're going to do the same things you do with fitness and biohacking. You were going to figure out how to fix your nine speed transmission on your automobile and I think that is

so commendable. I think that's very very frugal on your part, and it just shows the great amount of ambition and spunk that you display on a regular basis. It's all because you are our number one fitness trainer and biohacker, and that's why you're on the show. So that's in a nutshell instead, let's talk. Yeah, also going to say that that just shows how delusional you are as because it's not that it's never a chance in hell that I'm

even thinking about looking at that. That's why I have a couple of hundred dollars worth of like tobols, because I'm not even thinking about doing it. Okay, but not on from my car trouble till I really want to talk to you about it. Yeah, let's talk about this app that you told me and us about not too long ago. But I think it's uh definitely

well worth revisiting. It's called Yuka, is that right? It's so yucker, It's why U k a And it was actually invented by three uh a three a French people, uh, one woman and two men in well actually just just just like the French to have of two men and one woman working on something together. There you go, there you go. But it's called it's called ana, it's called a manajati rocco. Okay, let's just yes, I was trying to go towards food and not not towards the sexual influence

that I said nothing. I said nothing about sex. Your mind just took. I did not imply you inferred. So anyway back to you one that mentioned right, I meant. I meant a scientific MENAJATOI is what I meant. Oh, so okay, okay, So as it relates to food,

yes, so the young app uh. They they invented it in France, and they actually because Americans started using it so much, they actually moved to New York and are now work in in in the US with with all the food manufacturers and and basically all it is is you download it from your app store and and you and you scan with your phone the bar code of any

food, any food. It doesn't do a cosmetics and it doesn't do U supplements, but any food it gives it gives a grade and it has it has a red which means bad yellow, you know, orange ish, and that means it's it's not that bad. And then you have green, and then it has also a number a number of scale two. So if it's like orange and it's in you know, if it's forty nine, then you know it's a bed. But if it's like zero and red, it's really

really bad for you. So it tells you what exactly. So it tells you what chemicals, what editives, like the sugar content, the soil content, and the fact content and so yeah. But what why I love it is because of the the uh like the editives. It tells you all the additives that are in it and what they are and and and and what they can do to your body, and what the science, what real science has to say about those those additives. So it's not some fly by night saying

oh well this says it can do this. It's not like that at all. So if it's if it's a red eye or if it's college and I mean, that's an editor, but that's a good editor. I was just gonna ask you, are there are there any good additives and you just answered me, oh yeah, so there is, you know, like there's no there's no good perfect you know, a processed food. But like, uh, well the other day, right, I was doing a comparison to make a video for for Instagram, and I compared, uh, the Kroger ice

cream right to a Briar's ice cream. And I compared them both, and the and the Kroger ice cream was absolute garbage and and the Brier's ice cream was actually uh, you know in the green well. This is this is This is an excellent example of oftentimes it is true you get what you pay for. You know, you're paying probably two three dollars less for the no name brand ice cream. Briers is an established product obviously has a higher price

point, but there's better stuff in it. So a lot of times when people are looking for bargains, especially now at the grocery store, they will opt for something without having an app like Yuka and thinking it's the same thing as the higher price name brand, when many times it's not. That's a good example. Yeah, and there's other there's other other examples out there that I love, like, uh, like you'll get a spaghetti sauce. Let's just say, right one, you know, a rails is one that's really

really awesome. And then on the other side of that, a ragou or or or or even a Kroger brand isn't as good because there's way too much sugar in it and there's additives uh in it that are not the best for us. And there's there's a lot of food that that you don't realize that has has MSG in it, and you know because they call it something different. Well, this app will tell you what it is, what it is

and the and the alternative name. Also, so if you get MSG a monosodium igluminate and really any gluminates, you don't want anywhere near your body because it really affects the brain. And also, uh, we've talked about a nano technology like this stuff in uh in in a popcorn in a micro with popcorn or or also in skittles and things like that, but uh, you know, a titanium dioxide, you know, a big, a big brain

buster kind of dative. And we don't want you know, we don't want to keep uh taking in like like a lot of people do, uh these aditives because you know, in the long run, it's gonna cause cancer, It's it's going to cause a brain damage, it's gonna cause us stomach issues. Let me ask you this, and let me ask you this because I've eaten, I mean a great amount in my life of microwave popcorn and and you know, you know what, I like to season it with accent.

So do you think do you do you think that I'm suffering cognitive decline right now? Do you think my brain is on the way to total ruin and mush? Because I've eaten so much microwave popcorn and MSG. So so the issue there, right, I can't say because you're a pretty smart guy, right, and so I'm not gonna The weird thing about the brain is that things start happening thirty years like dementshaw pawkins In's Alzheimer's, that kind of damage

from it is from a pollution from chemicals, from toxins. It starts degrading your brain cells and literally are retarding your brain cells thirty years before you will show any symptoms. So you're what you're telling me, is what you're telling me is that if I continue this path, and it's probably too late for me by the time late by the time I'm seventy, I'll be a vegetable

with a mindful of mush. You'll be cold, You'll be coming over to my mouth, You'll be coming over to my house to spoon feed me baby food that's good and approved, that you've approved, just because I won't be able to do it for myself, is what you're saying. Well, well, by that time, though, you're already screwed, right, and so I'm not gonna I'm not gonna say, oh yeah, well we can pick.

We're not gonna fix you. But right now though, right before you turn seventy, because a lot of people say, oh, well, you've already damaged your DNA, your genetics are already al third and all that, it's just not true. We know now now are twenty years ago. We

believe that. We absolutely believe that. But now it's very different because we know now that we can use epigenetics, which is diet supplementation, peptide, many different things, many different you know, molecules that can help to change your genetic expression or you or the way that your genes express and your DNA because a lot of people thought that your DNA was exactly that, and once you changed it, well, you know what what we found out is that,

oh, well, holdy molly, we changed it, so now maybe we could change it back, right, and we can we can, So now we can you're telling me, you're telling me Rocco that at this late pat point in my life, there's still time to reverse the damage I've already done. Absolutely absolutely there is and and you know, I'm not going to say that it's going to be a one hundred percent, but you know what,

ninety eight percent, ninety seven percent not a bad percentage. And so that's the reason why I say, you know, whenever you could start, start and don't give me, don't give me excuses, don't give me, uh you know all these well, I don't have time, I don't have the money. You know what, Then just die, right the lad don't even complain, Just just die and shut up because we can't. You know, I'm not gonna try to help people. I mean you have to see

some of the stuff that I see now. Uh, now that we've been doing a wellness well, that sounds like a lot of a lot of money and a lot of time. Yeah, okay, die die, I'm more happy. I mean, I'm not gonna it's too much. I'm gonna fight with you. It's too hard, it's too much time, it's too much money to have a healthy lifestyle. So Raco says, Okay, just die.

It's hard. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna tell you that. Uh you know that health optimization like all these magazines and all these books and all these idiots out there say O, well you can do this and it's it's easy as one, two three, it's not. This stuff is absolutely difficult. And I mean for me to make my my biological age forty six is very, very hard. It's it's all about discipline. It's not about world

power. It's about discipline, getting up, grown to bed, getting the right sleep, doing the right dietary restrictions and also additives right, and being able to excellence. You think that I really like to exercise at fifty eight years old, I don't. I really don't. I'd rather not be doing that, But I do it because I want. I have an eight year old and a six year old, and I know that when I'm seventy years old, I still have to be able to kick their ass. Right,

I'm not I'm going to not do it right. So so Giovanni will be will be eighteen and ten years you'll be sixty eight, and you think you're going to be a pretty good shape, and you could still be able to whoop up on him if you have to. Well, think about it, right, So I told you on my biological age, right, So my chronological age is a fifty eight and my my biological age is a forty six. So that's that's a twelve year difference, right, So I'll be I'll

have you know, I'll be you know, like fifty six. So how do you really how do you determine that your biological age is what it is in your chronological in spite of your chronological age? How do how do you how do you get find out different testing mechanisms? There's different testing mechanism. There's a website called Insta Tracker, and you can go there and you get a blood test, and there's bio markers that actually show how short or long

you're telomeres are. That's the ends of your DNA and that's gonna help with that. How how your your vitamins are, where you are with your vitamins? And then UH and that's Insta Tracker And I had nothing to do with them. I just used them in the past. And also a doctor mark Hymen from the UH. He's written a bunch of like books. His his recent books called a Young Forever and he has a website called functionhealth dot com

and you can do the saving. You get tested. It's a membership based thing, but you get a blood test and then they can also also show you your biological age. So the name of the author again, Mark Hymen, and the book is what would you say, doctor Mark Hymen? A Young Forever is his book. And he he used to be he used to be the functional medicine He started with Michael Royson, the Cleveland Clinic's Functional Medicine

department. And uh, you know, Amim has written so many different books and uh, and and his last one, Young Forever, is really really great. He's got resources we need. We need to get together sometime off the air. And you helped me develop a diet, a diet plan just to start this reversal. Because I think that my my biological age, I'm sixty three. I think it's probably near eighty right now. I'm not sure. I'd have to say at least jeez, you know what, Go work

on your trans Go work on your transmission. Rocco, I gotta go see you later. Roccocostellano trained with Roco dot Com is the website for that guy. Meanwhile, in the u changed forest, a beautiful woman stands next to up beanstalk. I'm waiting for Jack. He had these magic beans through this stupid bean stalk and climbed it.

Got Kevin Fever, We've got the cure The Ford sixty Night Cap on seven hundred wl W Gary Jeff Walker, Welcome to my interview program I do on

Monday and Tuesday nights. When it's not red season, it will be pictures and catchers of course, reporting in Goodyear Arizona tomorrow, which is a harbinger that I'll soon be off the air except on Saturday morning. So I really love baseball, but baseball season takes money out of my pocket and time out of my resume on the radio, So I don't know. I'm kind of mixed emotions. With the red season. We are the home of the Reds, and it's going to be a glorious season. I'm sure full of promise

and excitement. But tonight, I'm still doing this and I'm happy to be doing this, especially with our next guest, a longtime Nightcap participant and someone that I have come to really really, she's really endeared herself to me, and I think it's a mutual thing. I hope it is. Karen Katalene spouting off once again with Gary Jeff on a Monday night. How you doing KK. Well, I'm doing okay, Gary Jeff, and it's good to talk to you as always. Well, football season is over, I mentioned

start a baseball season right around the corner. And my Kansas City Chiefs, not that I'm a member of the Hunt family or anything, or or dating one of Taylor Swift's friends, but my Kansas City Chiefs victorious prevailing over the San Francisco forty nine ers, which you were rooting for in Super Bowl fifty eight. And we made a little bet. We didn't. We never made it. We never made the bet on the air. I think we made

it off air. No, it didn't. Yeah, And so we made it off air, and I think that if Kansas City had won, which of course they did, Karen, I was I was going to I was going to receive something from you. I don't know. It was bacon and wine. Is that right? It's it's Swiss premium bacon and a cheap bottle of Taylor wine. Yes, I love that idea. I guess I have to do that for you now because you did win, well, I would beat me. I would like a I would like a red, preferably a

Cabernet. I like to cook with that, so uh, you know, get the Taylor war. I don'tough to drink, but it's cook with you know. You know chefs say that you should never cook with a wine that's not good enough to drink. That's because they want they want the rest of the half bottle so they can consume it while they're cooking the rest. And Swift's premium bacon. Yes, we've got Taylor Swift there, and I you know what that is payable anytime within the next calendar year, anytime before the

next actually, anytime before the next Super Bowl occurs. If if you, oh, wow, good, I want to save up for that. Yeah, I won't consider bottle of tailor wine. I won't consider it a welch bet if you deliver it before Super Bowl fifty nine. So there, oh wow, okay, and we should say because the game was very close, yes, had it not been for a couple of little things when it overtime, we you would have been giving me. You would have been sending me

before the next football calendar year. A pooper scooper, right, A bunch of handywifs because you Francisco and a boxer Ri Seroni the San Francisco Exactly. I don't live in San Francisco. I don't particularly care. In fact, I'm heartsick about what San Francisco has become. Yes, but there are a couple of really great Denver, Bronco connections to the to the San Francisco forty nine ers, all right, Shanahan and uh and uh the amazing Christian McCaffrey.

So there, yep. Yeah. And you know, I was talking with our friend Wildman Walker, who's a local sports maven here, and he uh he even admitted that, yeah, they shut down McCaffrey in the second half, but they really didn't shut down the offensive player of the Year Christian McCaffrey because he still ran for over eighty yards and caught eighty yards worth of passes, So I mean he played his game, but the rest of the team apparently didn't show up in the second half. So not from that,

I guess I love. I guess I love when little guys, which Christian McCaffrey compared to these monster bruisers, is a small guy and he never gives up. He runs into the fray and he's just wiry and Feistian. I like that. Annie grew up in Colorado. What's not so light? So you know, we're in the middle of Black History Month and something else happened,

Karen that I wanted to talk to you about. And it's not coming directly to my mind at the moment, but it was about, oh, the historically black colleges and universities, which I mean they have served their purpose and their role in many places when there was less access to higher education. But there's this effort to you know, push and facilitate, which Donald Trump famously did a lot of during his first term as far as supporting the HBCUs.

But why do we have to have his historically black colleges and universities. When why don't we just make all of the academic institutions accessible, which they are and also the best they can be to actually educate and teach people. And again it's this, it's this segregation movement after the segregation period in this country that people keep wanting to go back to. Why do people, especially on the left, want to segregate everything in groups and identity politics. Well,

because it feeds collectivism and communism. I started to really understand that connection. You know, in the last few years there must be division and chaos and hatred, which they've done a marvelous job of stirring and inciting. That's partly because under the guy this is how cynical and how breakingly paradoxical big words it is. Under the guise of quote tolerance and diversity or all of that tolerance, they have gone about institutionalizing racism by dividing everybody into racial groups.

So you are no longer an individual, you are a member of whatever group they've decided you're in, whether it is the group of persecutors or it's the group of victims. And while we watch the NFL with signs on the back of their helmets that say end racism. We have millionaire football players campaigning against racism, because, after all, we are such a racist country that we chair the athleticism of black people. I have no desire to start a movie

meant for diversity and equity among for Jewish football players. Okay, they actually have, there actually have been some. But a meritocracy is directly contradictory to what they're trying to bring about, which is a collectivist, communist, global kind of thing that we watch and are watching again and again. And a so called color blind society flies in the face of all that you can't you

know. And furthermore, and this is really deep in a way, because if you're looking superficially at a person like the color of their skin, categorizing them, that's the very definition of true racism. Attributing my name, for example, a middle aged white woman who complains a lot, first of all, Karen, why is the name synonymous with any color or race? And why is it that complaining as an individual and wanting the best service or being

an individual is wrong? So if you want to consider people as individuals responsible for their own choices in life and hold them accountable for that, rather than giving certain groups of past and other groups persecuted because of their group status. That's communism, that's bigotry. You can't have individualism and communism and collectivism, you know what I mean. No, I mean, I'm trying to capture

a really big idea very quickly. But that is why when we had we many people voted for the forty fourth President of the United States because he was half black. He was black right, because of his skin. Because of his skin com people wanted no matter how how sparse a resume he had, people thought we would have a post racial society. We'd finally have a black president, and we could move on to an individualist you know, you know, this is not the fifties. And what happened. It got worse,

it got extreme, when everything became racist. In other words, we had to broaden the definition of racist to include answer Maiman, doctor Seuss, and all of that. Because this is a long way around the barn to answer your question. They cannot possibly these Westist communists, most of them who are white liberals, they cannot possibly acknowledge any progress in racial harmony in America because

they don't want it. Oh, it's the same way that the Department of Energy, the Department of Education, all of these big government bureaucracies never solved the problem because if they solved the problem, they would be not needed, they would be obsolete. They people would realize that, Okay, that you've done your job, it's time to go away, and we can quit wasting all this money on a problem you've already solved. But no, the idea

is not to solve the problem. It's to perpetuate the problem so they can continue to generate the funds and the attention that they get. It's and control and control exactly. Yeah. Well, you know it's like then it's a pure conflict of interest. It's like when I was in the mental health field,

you probab didn't know. You know, I have an MSW from a very conservative school, Columbia University. And when I was in the mental health field, it bothered me that many private therapists, many of whom had MSWs, had a vested interest. I mean many of them had great integrity, don't get me wrong, but they had a vested interest in keeping therapy going on forever because it sent their kids to college for everything. Yes, okay, And and so you have a conflict of interest. If you if you

improve somebody right out of your own job. That doesn't mean people don't have integrity. It means it is a conflict of interest built into the system. Well, you know this, This is a this is a bone I've always had to pick with with the chiropractic injury industry, the chiropractic industry. And I'm not saying that they're bad people. I'm not saying they don't help people. But the whole idea of going to a chiropractor is to get that that

instant help. Now, but for that help to continue, you're going to have to continually go back to the chiropractor. For another reason. That's the same thing. The difference between acute injury and chronic injury. But chronic injuries, uh you know, I mean, without going into detail, which I just did, you're exactly one hundred percent right, they depend only on two injuries. They wouldn't have a business, right, Yeah, your burbo,

your phone line burbled up? Did you move or something? I don't know? Sorry, no, no, okay, now it's back. But yeah, the acute versus chronic injuries you were talking about, and you're back clear as a bell. Now, but yeah, anyway, that's the whole idea of of these government problems, programs that become problems for everybody. But they're actually these monoliths that keep on being paid for and perpetuated by all of us

even though we basically don't have a need for them. And you know what, there's, Jeff, one thing has to be said, and that is they're perpetuated by unelected bureaucrats and are not accountable to the voters. Yes, and that's like close to dictatorial situation in there where nobody can vote amount, nobody can say, you know what, where's the suggestion box? Okay, well no, they they just care about the collection box, not the suggestion

box. That Carrie, Joe. So you saw something about Islamophobia, which has been a word that has come up in it and it's a misnomer for sure, and you will highlight the reason that it's a misnomer because phobias, as you were mentioning before, are are unnatural fears. They're there. But

so I don't have an unnatural fear of Muslims or Islam. I have the fears that uh that their prophet has written about, like kill all the infidels, that's not an unnatural fear when you have a religion based around eliminating anyone

who does not believe the way you believe on this earth. So so, but you also mentioned that there's no such thing as jeophobic, right, Yeah, the very same people that have been lecturing us about racism and bigotry and who and whenever there is a crime, a horrible crime, oh like October seventh, or like Florida, committed by a Moslim of any kind, they are quick to tell you you better not be Islamophobic, even in response to

a horrible crime, which partly is responsible is because of the thing I mentioned earlier. They think in terms of collectivism, they can't just hold that person accountable who deserves to be. But now you go further by mentioning, and rightfully so, that Islam. The more religious pum Moslims get, the more likely they are to take their own book literally, which means kill a Jew wherever you find them, eradicate them, and kill all the infidels. Anybody

who doesn't agree with you you should get rid of. Now, that's really in their books. So a phobia means an unrealistic fear that you manufactured on your own In other words, it's your problem, which is kind of ironic since they don't recognize when people are personally responsible for their own thoughts and feelings.

Right, So it's twisted upside down and backwards. But why is it that the same people that have been lecturing us about bigotry and racism and even accuse Donald Trump of being an anti semi and Hitler, which is preposterous. He who has done more for Israel in our lifetimes than any president, including has Jewish grandchildren, he's an anti semi. But they can cheer genocide and never come to the defense of anybody and say, don't be jeophobic, don't

hate all Jews because some Jews do bad things. See how it is very selective. That's what they're saying about islam O phobia, which their intent makes sense, which is, don't hate all Muslims because some Muslims do bad things. But unfortunately Islam as a religion has some problems in it because it never went through a reformation. Right that being said, nobody says the other nobody

Karen, Karen, I love you to death. Our time is up for tonight, sadly, but it's so eloquent, so well said and thought out. I will tell you though, I'm working on a problem that I personally have, and I just wanted to impart this as we leave each other's company tonight. I've been working on my juju bean phobia because I hate those things. Well, don't hate all jujubes, because some of them you don't like. And sorry, you wind me up and you just let me go.

My goodness, I can't talk. Dog gonna Karen Katalin katileen dot com check it out online. That's k A T A L I n E. She's spouting off again. Thank you, babe, Take you all right, and NCAV continues right after the news break on seven hundred WLW, A good Day starts with a good morning, here's Tony. He's an early riser who likes to ease into his day. Tony pours himself a strong cup of Joe,

grabs a biscotti, and turns on Mike McConnell. Good morning. Tony knows, Mike, We'll start his day with everything he needs, the latest news, whether traffic, sports, money, news, and Mike's cutting with and magical charm, like Tony always says, when you've got a biscotti, and McConnell. You're in heaven Mike McConnell tomorrow morning at five on seven hundred w

LW. This also is very active, the Loaded Mike podcast you can check out that's m c and he's often in Amalama and he is there again today with details of the new gun control policies from the Biden administration for black communities. So let's see, you defund the police and you restrict personal ownership of private ownership of guns, and black communities, it's got to make them safer. All coordinating with Black History Month. From the great State of New York,

Well, the state of New York. Dan was, who hasn't decided to leave the state yet, but he who knows, Dan was, how are we doing today? Hey, Gary, Jeff, thanks for having me on the show. And yes, I'm still here in New York. I think my biggest problem is I like to fight, so and we've got enough. We got a lot of fighting going on here when it comes to gun legislation and stuff like that. Bye, before we get into the Biden thing.

Your Governor Kathy Hokeel apparently her sensitive gun ban plan that's unconstitutional New York. They responded, to the Supreme Court saying, oh, sure, you're allowed to carry a firearm, but just not in certain places. I guess that worked real well with the teen illegal shooting in Times Square. Yeah, the illegal trespasser who was a teenager was arrested. He shot a woman and then he started shooting at police officers. But no, if I'm not laughing

because it's funny, I'm laughing because the hypocrisy is so crazy. But the sensitive that's a sensitive gun area. He wasn't supposed to have a gun. How did he get a gun? Dan? Yeah, Yeah, this is this is this is a mind boggling Well, wait a minute. He came into the country illegally. How did he get into the country? Dan, Yeah, I think that you know, are you? It's so obvious.

We're laughing about it because it's so ridiculous that there are people who still believe this left wing nonsense that you can have open borders and you can create gun laws and people will be safer. It's the exact opposite. They need to shut down the border and you need to give people back their ability to defend themselves, especially in places like New York City. I won't step foot in the New York City subware. Are you kidding me if I don't unless I

have a gun on me, because you don't know what to expect. And they're women and children and people who are otherwise defenseless against these killers. And but that's what Kathy Hopel is creating. She's creating a victim predator society. And they don't care because they see over and over and over good people being killed and hurt because of their left wing policies. Let's get to the Biden administration of this article you've have in Ammoland today, Dan was sure you say

they're on a propaganda rampage, Well, when haven't they been? But anyway, now Joe Biden being presented as the face of the newly fabricated Community Violence Awareness Week, which appears, you say, to have be nothing more than a new left wing political holiday for the purpose of spreading anti gun propaganda. So tell me about what they're proposing here, Dan, Well, and that's

just it. They love to create these so called holiday type things where you where it's in the calendar and your your iPhone will show up as you know, having this little holiday. And now they're trying to create this Community Violence Awareness Week, and they're tying it in with Black History Months, so those

two things are locked in together for marketing purposes. You might you might say they also have created the bipartisan they call it bipartisans Safer Communities Act, and they love to use these terms Safer Communities because it pulls at the heartstrings of

people. But really what it is, it's it's a bunch of anti constitution gun laws, including seven hundred and fifty million dollar fund that would encourage states, or leverage states into implementing these unconstitutional red flag laws, which are really confiscation of firearms without due process. Then they create a health crisis, they declare it Joe Biden, Joe Biden's administration declares a health crisis so they can

act on these gun confiscations otherwise known as red flag laws. And then they tie all this in the Community Violence Awareness Week, and they then they have instructional courses to teach leaders of black communities how to acquire these government funds, which then they can go forward and they can start violating their citizens' constitutional rights. It's it's so it's so heinous and so obviously racist that when I started

reading about this, I'm going. I can't believe people are just letting this pass by and they're not saying anything. So I would encourage everybody to go to my ammal land page ammaland dot com and look for my name Dan wass d A n W O S. And read this article. You're going to be amazed. It's called Biden's new gun control for Black communities. Absolutely racist,

racist and absolutely heinous. Indeed, uh you know, and you go on in this article just not too much with spoiler alert, say, by creating the appearance of a health crisis, Joe Biden's handlers can pave the way for him to sign executive orders at the behest of the angered radical left gun

lobby. And that's why the propaganda machine will start using the term health crisis more often when the topic of guns come up, just like they're also going to use health crisis to imple implement some of the Green New Deal projects that they are so enamored with. And you mentioned and it's it's interesting the use of language here health crisis to describe uh, gun safety or Second Amendment right, and how Second Amendment rights are interfering with the health of everyday Americans.

And in this instance, black Americans during Black History Month. So you reimagine or basically dismantle police, especially in big leftist cities around the country where there is a large black population, you reimagine police and consider them to be more social workers. And then you take the ability of the normal citizen, the American citizen, you take their Second Amendment rights away with these red flag laws

you're describing, So they are basically left defenseless. And this is and not just defenseless against the criminals, and there are plenty of those out there. We've let millions into the country in the last three years. But also, by the way, we had enough criminals before we let in all those criminals. Uh. And then then you've got the police, you know who, they're either handcuffed or they're not prosecuting the criminals who committ acts against these people

who now are left to not defend themselves. Black communities, by and large, if you go and talk to people in in predominantly black communities, they want the police and they want the ability to defend themselves. Yeah, and you know what, the really the real sad part of this whole thing is that there are people in these communities that will support this self inflicted gun control

because it's just because it's been labeled Safer Communities Act. So, in other words, as long as they keep putting that safer, that word safe and community in there, and all those little propaganda words, people who aren't paying attention will will support it. Because you got to think there are people in these communities and other communities where they don't have the ability and they haven't had

the ability to self defense with firearms for decades. So what happens is they see this crime over and over and over because nobody's able to defend themselves. So they think that, well that come out Biden Biden administrations come out with this new Safer Communities Act, we better support it, not thinking that the administrations like the Biden administration are the ones who have created the chaos and violence in their community to start with, exactly in a different topic. But it's

the same thing as suddenly changing the words abortion to reproductive healthcare exactly. It's the same thing. Well, well we can't, we can't call it baby killing, so let's call it healthcare, right, yeah, healthcare and a woman's choice. You know, a woman doesn't have the choice or the option or the legal authority to kill another human being. I don't care what you call it. It's not a woman's choice to do that, and it's also

not women's healthcare. Check out No, yes, not check out, amal Land Dan Waughs is the writer d A. N. W Os and this latest article on in Ammeland about Biden's plan to totally newter any any ordinary legal, law abiding citizens' chance of defending themselves where the crime is at a zenith right now in urban areas and in black community specifically, Dan Walls, thank you for your time as always, my friend. It's always instructive and it's

always fun. Gary Jeff, anytime, good talking to you. Have a good one. Thank you. You got it. It's the nightcap and it rolls on. Here on seven hundred w LW Bounced to the crowd game way too loud. Here comes Taylor Cruise, made the blank by wave electric electric players bound to the crowd game way too twenty twenty four centinnadi w red this loath, this game wide, Oh the way felt. All starts with spring train sending the right fielder back to the log yow on seven hundred WLWH Tarpan,

India, the home of the reds. Have you found yourself in too much debt? Consolidate all your place next to some we've never had before, which is always exciting to me because I love talking to new people with all kinds of great ideas that I think that should be passed along to you. And one of those people is Pastor Mark Bilts. He is, well,

I'll let him explain where he can be found here in a moment. He has a new book called America at War twenty twenty four to twenty twenty six, The Suns of Light Versus the Suns of Darkness, best selling author and pastor Mark Bilts. Welcome to the Nightcap. Well, thanks so much. I sure appreciate you having beyond. So you're saying predicting the next two years

will be chaos, and it's an election year in twenty twenty four. We saw what happened in twenty twenty and I have been We're not the only ones predicting it's going to be chaotic. But you go a little bit further past your Bilts, So just get into that, get into that a little bit. Sure. Well, what the book is about is how I see war coming not only to the United States but around the world globally. And one of the things is, you know, with this election, it's like there's

going to be a huge political war, no doubt about it. Well, then we also could very potentially have another civil war breakout with the Israel Hamas war going on between the pro Palestinians and the pro Israeli crowd. And then of course there's always the Black Lives Matter versus the white supremicist crowd. So this year is going to be very chaotic from that way. But here's what I really believe is going to happen, and that is we're going to see

suicide bombers here in the United States. We've let so many illegal immigrants in from China, over one hundred countries have been allowed in, and with all the Chinese military h people they've allowed in. Even the holemand Security had told the the National Sheriff's Convention just the other day that it's not a matter of

if, it's a matter of when. And I believe we're going to see people blowing themselves up in gas stations, on bridges, you know, in grocery stores, and our world is going to be changing by the end of this year. I hate to say it, but I believe that you're probably on the right track there with the all the unrest. Let's look at the Middle East specifically, and they've always talked about a two state solution for Palestine and Israel, when that, of course is Israel's land. Uh, by

by God and by history and by legally it's it's Israel's lane. And I'm still trying to define, to define what a Palestinian is exactly. But is uh you think Cutter is an honest broker in all of this because we've been negotiating through Cutter for release of hostages at all and a suspension to the fighting and what what do you think about all of that? Oh, my gosh, you are so wise. And on top of things, Cutter is one of the worst brokers. You know. Cutter has given like two billion dollars

to Cornell University, given billions of dollars university. So theys you you you went away for a second pastor bills? Oh, I'm sorry, you're you kind of I can hear you? Fine, go ahead. So, so you're talking about Cutter just being the worst person you could possibly want to seek a solution for these complex problems and money donated to Cornell University. What's the money donated to Cornell University going for? Of what wars like dozen universities.

They do it for different departments, but some of them is like foreign policy or something. You know, they have our journalism trying to influence the media. But this is why you saw all these riots on the college campuses of people protesting Israel because they're funded by Cutter. But they're absolutely not. They love them off and they've been a part of the problem and they won't solve it. And as far as the two state solution, that's when the judgment's

gonna fall. And I'll tell you why. In Juel three one and two, God said He's gonna come against every nation that's dividing his land. And Zechariah one it talks about the four horses of the apocalypse in Zechariah and chapter one is when the red horse rides, which is war. And what happens. There are these four horns that Zachariah sees and God says that He's going to send four carpenters to terrorize them because these are four that are trying to

divide the land of Israel. Who are those four horns? It's the EU, the you, and the US and Russia. And so God's word said He's going to send terror to those nations that are trying to part his land. So it's all biblically prophesied, and we're we're absolutely our country right now is on the wrong side of this this equation. And what about the United

States national debt? We're over thirty four trillion dollars. I forget how many hundreds of thousands of dollars that is for every man, woman and child in this country right now. But it's crazy. You are the best. I tell you what you really are. Do you know most people don't know the difference between a million and a billion and a trillion. So in a few seconds, I'll tell you that, your listeners, the difference. If you were to count one million seconds non stop, it take you about twelve days.

But if you were to count a billion seconds non stop, it take about thirty one years. Well, if you were to count a trillion seconds NonStop, it would take you thirty one thousand years. Now, we've only been on this planet since Adam for six thousand years. You're talking thirty one thousand years for one trillion, and we're thirty thirty four trillion. I think

in debt we are flushed down the toilet so badly you're gonna see. I think the economy collapse and going to a digital dollar by the end of this year. By the end of this year, I would not be surprised. Well, hopefully something happens in the November election that upends that, because that is I think it'll cause it. That is the end. That is the end of all kinds of personal liberty and freedom and the state taking full control. That's mark of the beast. Stuff. That is end of time stuff.

And I sadly, I well, you know, for some people, it is sad for people who believe in Jesus Christ, for people who have a foundation, for people who've been saved, it's like what we've been waiting for. But it's all coming. It is, yeah, and it's the heavens. The heavens are declaring it. I'm the one who came up with the four blood moons that were coming back in twenty fourteen, twenty fifteen, ahead of everybody else when they were all writing about it. But I finally

found out what those were about. Get loaded of this the year of Jubilee was nineteen seventy three to twenty twenty three. There were four blood Moons in sixty seven sixty eight which were exactly seven years before the Jubilee began. And the Jubilee begins on Yong Kaport, and they had the Yung Kaport War at

the very first day of the Jubilee. Then they had the Iron Swords War back in October on the very last day of the same jubilee, which is what the twenty fourteen Blood Moons were warning, a seven year warning to the Iron Swords war. Well, now there's eclipses and Genesis one for King says God made the s in the moon for signs, which is eclipses. And in my book I go over the eclipses lunar and solar eclipses that are all

foughting on the biblical holidays, which is a sign of war. As a matter of fact, eclipses are in the same order as Israel march to war in numbers one and ken down stepping in for another hour, and in this hour, one of our favorite guests, a great historian, a great American patriot, a Christian and some and I have come to really really respect and love so much through our conversations, even though we've never met in person,

the author of Rediscovering America, about how important American institutions and traditions are to what the founders had in mind for this great American experiment known as the United States of America, and how it's being torn down. Nowns latest Peace in the American Thinker out today, and I urge you to read it even if you even if you only have a few minutes of time, it won't take long. And it is so instructive on what's going on today and why this

must be stopped for us to continue living in this great country. And it is still a great country, but is being attacked and has been for a long long time. To explain that once again, Scott Powell on the Nightcap. Scott, it's great to have you as always, Gary Jev. Thank

you so much for that gracious introduction. And there's so much to talk about, so yet one ready to go. You start in the piece talking about the Cuban missile crisis and you were twelve years old when this happened, and from that very time you became interested in communism how it works, and go on to say there were so many, so many people, and gives seven point two million inhabitants of that island that was taken over by Fidel Castro and

some two hundred followers of his who were communists two hundred overtaking seven point two million. And what I see numbers like that and understand just how just how little, how few people can absolutely turn a whole country on its ear without them really noticing until it's too late. And it seems so similar to it.

But instead of two hundred followers of communism right now, according to estimates, we've led in about twenty thousand people from Communist China through our southern border in the last couple of years, and most of them are military age men. We've led an entire army of Communist Chinese across the southern border now, whether they're here to overthrow the country or not, but that's astounding and it's very scary. So let's start from when you're twelve years old, Scott,

and what you noticed and why this got your attention. Well, when I was twelve, the Cuban missile christ I was twelve, and I was I think I was in grade school still, but the Cuban missile crisis came up, and it really there were I knew families in my town that were building bomb shelters because they were concerned about a nuclear war breaking out. And of course, when you're very young like that, you really don't know what's going

on. But I certainly got my attention. And then later, you know, I learned a little bit more about Castro, and I somehow came into the information that he was able to take over. When he took over Cuba, he was a communist, He of course invited the you know, he had an alliance with the Soviet Union at that time, and and he made him he made his country a base for the installation of these nuclear weapons pointed at the United States, which was, you know, quite an alarming development.

And and then so I wondered, well, so who is this guy? How did all this happen? How how did Castro come to power? Because you know, Cuba was the second most prosperous country in the Western hemisphere at one time, America being number one, Cuba was number two. You know, Canada would probably be number three, and at various times, you know, Argentina and Venezuela were number three, four or five. Uh, and isn't it interesting that Cuba became communists, Venezuela has gone communists, and

Argentina has was largely a you know, a big government social estate. And they're they're they're on their way back, though, I think, Scott areg you it's very very exciting, very exciting, very exciting. So anyway, so I began to study how at all how did Castro come to power? And what I learned was that that Castro had a very sympathizing New York Times a writer and I can't remember his name is it's in my first book,

Covert Cadre uh. And he invited that writer to come and visit him in the mountains of Cuba, you know, sort of like an adventure, and he was. He was probably blindfolded and taken up into the mountains. And Castro had his base of operations strategically placed near a wooden bridge, and he instructed his limited you know, cadre followers, which they were under equipped, but they had a few vehicles, and they may have had some artillery,

they may have a few things, and he had. And so when he met with a reporter, they're they're meeting, you know, at night, and Castro instructed them to his people to drive in a circle around them.

It was all fabricated, and to cross that bridge continuously. So Castro wove a picture in the mind of this reporter that he had a huge army behind him because you could hear you could you could hear the noise of the of the diesel trucks moving and there were only a few of them, and you know, the heavy artillery going over the bridge, and he just had this going around and round and round as though it was a continuous parade, and it was not a parade. It was a very small, circular, circular

operation. So when when it was reported in the New York Times that Castro had this huge revolutionary force, it was believed. And then the strategy was to undermine the Bautista regime at that time on a human rights violation, on a corruption and human rights violation basis, and that took to the public mind. So what happened was that America, which had supported Cuba and its government, we didn't choose it. They chose it themselves. But it undermined the

American support for Cuba. And so with a small group of revolutionaries only the maximum number was two hundred that Castro had. He was able to take over a nation of seven million, seven point two million people, to be exact. I mean, it's unbelievable, but we've seen Lenin did the same thing in nineteen seventeen. Lenin had a very small following. How did he take

over Russia and even bigger country. It's because the Communists have a strategy and they implement it, and so it is very important for we Americans to understand what that strategy is and how it's being implemented in the United States right as

we speak right now. Another example, Scott Powell is Communist China. Communists in Communist China today there are either ten percent or less than ten percent of the entire population of the country that are official recognized card caring members of the ruling party. So less than one hundred million people are ruling over more than one billion people in this in this enclave. And like I said, it's a very small minority, and yet they have ultimate, ultimate iron fist authority

over the entire population. And that's grown up because they have created such a pervasive and massive surveillance state where there are cameras everywhere, a facial recognition they have a digital you know what we call the central bank digital currency. They have a digital currency system wherein the people carry no cash, but they have the government issued card connected to their account and the government can track exactly what

everyone is doing with their spending and so uh. And they certainly know when there are critics of the government, their access to their to their money would be cut off, or their their ability to get a loan would be denied because they're controlling people through their money. And this is why we can't allow that to happen in America. But Scott, this is the thing. It

is happening. We have surveillance almost everywhere in this country, and they're talking about they're fighting over facial recognition because they really think it's important to catch criminals and to cratch catch people that are you know, are not not nice people, you know. And and now the digital dollar, come on, they're doing all that. They're trying to mechanize all the same things in the United States. Yes, there we are. We are in a communist revolution in

America. And but let's let's get back to sort of building the case and we can get into the current the details that you just mentioned, because I think it's very important. But so how do the communists with limited you know, with a limited group of people, how are they able to influence a big nation and destroy it and take it over. Well, they have a bit of a playbook, and you know, one of the things that they do, without exception, the communist strategy to sever the target society or country

from its past. You mean by tearing down statues and monuments, yes, and destroying monuments. That's right, And so that's that's the first pillar. The second is that they the communists seek to divide the target society and pit people against each other in as many ways as possible. And it's not just the the old traditional proletariat and bourgeoisie you know conflict. You know, it is every it is. It is slicing and dicing society seeking to divide in

as many ways as possible. So it includes you know, not just class, economic class, but race, gender, and many more. There are examples of how we got divided, which was part of the the Chinese communist virus that was brought into America and the vaccine regimen that followed. Didn't we get very divided over who was vaccinated and who wasn't and we actually talked about

the need for a vaccine passport. Well look look up up until just last year, someone like what's his name, the tennis player Djokovic Novak Djokovic, right, was not allowed to come into to play the US Open, even though he was the number one player in the year because he had not been

vaxed against COVID nineteen. And that's very recent, even after people already had all the information they needed to know that the vaccines well have may been preferable for some older people or people with some conditions, were not what they were advertised. In fact, there's a huge lawsuit right now by the Texas Attorney General Ken Vaxton against for false advertising claiming that the COVID nineteen vaccines were ninety

five percent effective and they were safe. And when we found out now and they've admitted that they do not prevent infection nor transmission of COVID even if you have the latest booster, that's right. So yeah, it's it's an excellent point that you're making, and please continue on. And another recent recent phenomenon of a new front of division in our country, particularly the youth, is

the transgender movement. You know they It's said that thirty percent of gen Z when interviewed or when polled about their about their identity, their gender identity, claim that they are you know, they are non binary. Their fluid they don't have it, their fluid, they have no gender. Thirty percent of young people are have gender dysphoria, husion about a fundamental part of life.

Well, that's that is all part of the communist revolution. I believe it's all tied together so that that division, uh is you know, is on so many different levels. The third area that the communists and this is these are consistent things that the communists do to take over society. The third one is that they destroy the family, uh, and they they seek to to take over uh, you know, the the children's health, education, and welfare, so public schools. Of course, where are public schools today.

They have miseducated two generations of our young people, so they don't know how to think. They can't think critically that you know, they'll just buy into the narrative that the government feeds them. But health, education, and welfare are the domain of the parents. And you know, no one can take care, no one can look the state can never love it's not capable.

Bureaucracies are not capable. In spite of people saying that we need more compassion and therefore we need more welfare and need to take care of people, who has ever met a compassionate bureaucrat. They don't exist. So it's really the family that nurtures children, that loves them, cares for them, guides them, and leads them, and we hope that they are led to have a relationship with God and that they can discover the eternal truths that are found in

the Bible and in classic literature. Much of it is Western literature, right, But what we see going on as the government has expanded its reach into education is that the classics are being destroyed. They're not accessible, right, don't. I think in many schools you can't read Tom Sawyer or Huck Finn. And this makes me reference and yet Scott, in those same schools you can read a five year old could access a book about being gay and gay

sex. At the same time they are banning Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn from those same libraries. That's well. We have many cultural communists throughout America now and we as as the people, have got to take our country back, and it's it's going to be hard, but progress is being made where we got to take take back our school boards, and we have to take back our cities. I mean, we know that the communists made the biggest inroads

into cities around America. You know, when you look at a map of America, it isn't a map of red states and blue states as much as it is a map of red cities. You know, of blue cities. I'm sorry, it's blue, blue cities and a red uh largely read America. Oh yeah, you look at the you look at the map of counties of America, and it's red everywhere but Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Baltimore, on Saint Louis. So, Scott,

this is a perfect place to stop. We'll get to the fourth thing that communists do, which I think maybe the most important point you make in this piece. Scott S. Powell, our guest once again. The title of the piece in The American Thinker was ken Florida Halt the Woke Revolution? But more importantly, can America halt the woke Revolution? And I tell you what Part two coming up in just a few minutes. You're on seven hundred

WLW. It's Valentine's ninth Ball. Yo, It's showtime. Saint Vier's Musketeers top off. You were a night of love when they take on super hor How about that? Nothing but that's a big eastuffvent from romantic Newark, New Jersey. Oh my goodness, sweet Berbles. Catch the call line Wednesday night at six on seven hundred WLW and seven hundred wl w's live stream on a

pretty iHeartRadio app. Body Armor's zero Chondred back in nineteen eighty eight about communism and the awful, the awful reaping that it sows and how it's being sewn in America today, just like it wasn't in communist Cuba, just like it was before there was a USSR, in Old Russia. Any place where you see communism pop up, these are the tenants. These are the things that they plan and do on purpose. We mentioned in the first half hour.

You missed it without exception. Communist syk to sever the target society of your country from its past, and that's tearing down monuments, renaming, renaming schools, whatever it is, just to eradicate anything that had happened before they got here and decided that they were going to remake it all in their own image. Secondly, communists seek to divide the target society and pit the people against each other by class, by race, by gender. It's segregation all over

again, done by the left. And third, communists seek to destroy the family and have the state takeover child health, education, and welfare. And we've seen so many examples publicly of them saying it out loud, from Hillary Clinton to Barack Obama to Joe Biden and his administration saying, you know, for eight hours a day, they're mine, They're not yours for eight hours

a day just because they're in a public school, Joe. And finally, communists seek to reality and the church by infiltration and creating false fronts or false idols of secular humanism. Scott speak to that if you would, Well, that's a very big thing because we know that the communists have always targeted the you know, the takedown, but also in America it's really the transfer of the church. So the Communists penetrated the Christian church hierarchy in the nineteen thirties

through the World Council and the National Council of Churches. Now the National Council of Churches is a Protestant. It's the Protestant organization that sort of has influence with all the different denominations, with the exception of the Southern Baptists who don't

belong to it, and some others that don't belong. But the mainline churches, whether it be the Methodists, the Lutherans, the Presbyterians, the Congregationalists, the United Church of Christ, all of these churches have departed from the bulk of the churches, have departed from the fundamental teachings in the Bible. They've embraced homosexuality, gay marriage. You know, they have really abandoned many of the fundamental core values of Christianity. And that's happened as a result of

this penetration. Now beyond that, there's been an effort, and what's happened as a result of that, a lot of people have left the church. They see hypocrisy and so forth. So the Communists also understand that people have a need to believe in something. So if they leave their Christian faith, well, let's see if we can't create something else, a surrogate religion, if you will, that they'll believe in that. We can use to advance

the communist revolution, and so environmentalism has been a key area today. Environmentalism and climate change are the number one false fronts being used to destroy America and Western civilizing. Yeah, the Bible warns about false teachings and false idols, and absolutely this is I call it the climate cult because he is a cult. That's what it is. And many people see it the way and they are passionate about it, just like they would be about spirituality or religion or

real you know, Christian values biblically taught. This is you know, al Gore is people like al Gore. I don't want to point him out, particularly because he I don't think he's really that important anymore. But al Gore and people like him, they're put on this pedestal of the John Carey today of being some kind of high priest of climatism, right right, Yeah, No, it's true, it's true. And these piple are totally compromised people. Let me be very blunt. These are corrupt public figures. Al Gore,

John Kerry, they are corrupt. They are making money by pushing a false environmental agenda. They put their money behind and you know, the the ev revolution because why well, they know that it'll be controlled by government, and when an industry gets protection by government, it's likely to succeed. And so you you don't you take away the risk factor. The investor who has who can invest in a protected industry is unlikely to lose money, more likely

to make money. And so these wealthy people put a lot of money behind their environmental beliefs. They know they're protected by government, and many of them make out very very well, whereas the you know, the the the average the true investor is evaluating, would prefer to actually be involved in companies that

are not subject to over regulation by the government. Because really, the dynamism of our creative engine of capitalism is that you have you have individuals and corporations that are entrepreneurial, creating new, you know, new products and services, and doing so at more competitive prices than any government owned the enterprise could ever do because it's you know, corporations have an internal dynamic that does two things.

It continuously improves the product and continuously puts pressure on downward prices. What what a what a wonderful mechanism. That's what the free market does. Uh So, anyway, so the environmental movement has been just a you know, uh, the mother load for for the left, for the and the communists are using it. It's the em batteries that go in electric vehicles are are manufactured by China. And now they're building plants in America. In Michigan,

they're building one I know, or two. It's very it's a huge plant. And they so they control the battery production, but they also control what goes into the batteries. In other words, even if America wanted to start a lithium battery enterprise, they've got to source their lithium with China, because China controls seventy percent of the global lithium market. And also in those batteries is cobalt, and in that particular mineral which is absolutely essential to the success

to the operation of a lithium battery, cobalt. The Chinese control more than seventy five percent of the cobalt mining in Africa. It's in the Congo and they use child labor. I mean, look, this is the very dirty stuff. I mean, lithium is very destructive to the environment. Nobody talks about that, but it really, it really is in many ways more destructive to the environment than you know that than drilling for oil and gas has ever

been. But the Chinese now control that. So as the climate change agenda, the Green New Deal gets pushed on us, who's benefiting? Primarily the Chinese are benefiting because they have these commanding, dominant market shares in lithium lithium batteries and the solar votanic panels. It's the same story there. More than seventy percent of panels being installed on people's roofs are built in China. This

effort towards communism and the centralized state power in this country. As you mentioned it, they started infiltrating the churches of America back in the nineteen thirties. But you know what it is about the same time that they infiltrated America's corporate structure and and everything about our economy, uh you know, and it's big

engines. Yeah, well, I just wanted I wanted to point out go back to the nineteen thirties and subsidies for farmers, how they were being paid to slaughter their pigs, you know, to to falsely support price and whatever and demand and supply and all of that. And it's it's endemic in all kinds of manufacturing and has been going on for years. It's we're seeing the

fruition of this long term plan I think right now. Oh yeah, the real hollowing out of America took place after, you know, after Nixon and Kissinger opened the door to China and then it really got legs, and that took place in the seventies, and it was done for strategic reasons, to to keep China and Russia sort of at odds with each other. To China could be you know, if we opened the door to China and began trading

with China, we could influence China's policy. And there was actually a view that we would live, you know, if they did business with US, traded with US, and invited American companies to open plants in China, which took place largely in the late eighties and the nineties, right that they would become more like us. Well, exactly the opposite has happened because the China, the Chinese, first of all, took all of our intellectual secrets.

When you open a business. When you know, when a US multinational opens a plant in China, the Chinese have to have a fifty one percent ownership of the of the of the plant, and so that by that dominant position, they have access to all of the intellectual property of any company operating in China. So they steal things and then they turn around and make it cheaper.

I mean, they wouldn't have the military that they do had they not stolen all of our uh so many of our of our military secrets, certainly no patents. Yeah, well, I tell you what I got you off track, and I apologize, but we got we got about five or six

minutes here. Go ahead and finish up with the discussion we were having before I rudely interrupted, Oh, don't worry, because I think this is good for the audience to really understand how we've gotten to where we are, because we've got to take our country back, you know, we we have to take our country back. We can't allow this woke revolution that parallels the cultural revolution in China that Mao used. Mao had a ten year cultural revolution to

transform transform Chinese society. Uh. And we are now in the midst of a cultural revolution within America, and it is affected all of our institutions, our corporate policies, our government policies. We see that critical race theory was foisted on all government agencies and now and it's kissing cousin called diversity equity inclusion UH has been pushed throughout our government, but most disturbingly, it's been pushed

into our military. And what what what it has done is that has caused a a new kind of racial divide between whites and blacks, with whites being uh, you know, charged with being a you know, white supremacy. White dominance needs to be ameliorated with you know, with elevating other races. Now, all of that's fine, except that we we we know that in the military there's one purpose of military and one purpose only, and that is to fight and win wars. And so you have to have the best people

rising to the top. You know, the only institution in America that I see that's not been taken over by the woke or highly influenced by woke and diversity equity and inclusion UH is the sports. So in some way, the sports franchises. While yes, they take a knee and they they bow to the woke god, the fact is that the coaches that higher athletes they hire on merit. They want the best athletes they can find. On their team because they want to they want to win, you know, they want to

win. And we need that same attitude throughout our corporations, throughout our government, in schools. There should be no uh, you know, this equity, this this diversity, equity, inclusion really has no place in a free society. What we what we need is the vision that Martin Luther King had, and that was is that he wanted people to be evaluated on the content

of their character, not the color of their skin. But this cultural revolution that we're in now, this woke revolution is is turning everything on its head. John Scott, we we had a communist who was in charge of the c i A in this country. His name is John Brennan. Yes, yes, he was an unashamed remember of communist by the way, and let me let me say this, he's the worst kind of communist because it was

also a Muslim. Oh, it's amazing. And that's why that's why Obama is such a dangerous political figure because he's a Muslim and he's a Marxist. And look how much harm he did to America, you know, and Trump turned it around, you know, for four years. But uh, you know, the the the left has such a lock. The corrupt left has such a lock in our in our city governments. And all this didn't happen by chance. It happened by a long term plan, uh that they could

easily target uh, the swing states and the big cities. Uh, and they could stuff the ballot box and and uh, you know, and and change vote counts so easily. Right when we went to bed on November third of twenty twenty, uh and they stopped vote counting in all six states simultaneously. More or less, Trump was Trump was ahead by big margins in many of those states, and in Pennsylvania he was up by six hundred and fifty thousand votes. I mean it was done. I mean we knew that Trump

had it. Well, they had to. They had a truck. They had a truck those ballots in in the middle of the night. That's right, they did, and they did that. They sure did. Listen, I'm running short again just because I got got in your way a little bit, and I apologize for that. But it's almost great to talk to you. If you want to. If you want to see what we been talking about tonight, check out the American Thinker. It's online. It's easily available.

such a unique book. Yeah, We're living in troubled times and and and rediscovering or provides a wealth of foundational information that will empower uh the reader and give you hope, which we all need. Uh. It's it was purposely written to be one of the shortest and most powerful American history books ever written. Great for busy people who don't read books anymore. Scott, thank you so much. Yeah, thank you so much. Jeff. I love our
