Tuesday-1-16-2024

I'm just saying it ain't my first rodeo. That's that's all. I was saying, what a weird and crazy and wacky and awesome and flash horrible and crazy weekend. Uh done? You got it. From the sports front, you had Iowa Caucus insanity where they like they go into caucus. And it's important to remember that I was obviously does things different. This gives him identity. This and the field of dreams field thing, which is there's two of them. Actually if you go weird, I don't know if it's a feud.

And then uh, I'm trying to think of what else. I mean, Superman was nearby, but that was was Kansas, then was of Oz and yeah, so so anyway, this is their big thing and it's different all obviously in what it is. But but what's important is it's also proportional kind of mostly so and and while they don't have the most, there is

the ceremonial aspect of it. And then so like they go in and and the media is like, ah, we can now project a winner and it's Trump, which is not a bad mathematical assumption, not by a long shot. Even if you're like me where you're like, I don't know about some bowls and stuff. You kind of expect that, but but it was strange because it was like, remember the hesitancy with which they were willing to call states for Trump the first time around, and now they're like all in and

then it turns into accuse it Tory, you know, inter fighting. You know it was, it was what it normally is. But it's everything's just got a more foreboding or hopeful angle because people are so immediately there's so much history there. I was reading Biden's tweets already, not his tweets, let's be honest, but from his not the White House one, but the Joe Biden one. They're like, see, we told you, we told you it's gonna be maga Republicans. Then it's gonna be maga Republicans now, and

get on board. Uh huh okay. And then I just saw a poll with everybody there who was on the primary ballot yesterday basically beats Biden heads up. So and then Pat McCrory's jumping in on the social media with his no label stuff and that's going well, and uh so, like I don't know that anything necessarily progressed forward, But there were some interesting little news nuggets that came out of that Trump and is uh it was was gracious in victory.

Okay, he was Trump in victory, which is you know what he is? Again, That's the thing, that's the the the the Biden strategy is they're just laying in wait, They're just you don't know what they're gonna They could snatch up what was it last week across they were gonna snatch up all the journalists and who else, all the journalists and all the gay people, all the journal Well that would be double duty in some instances and in some it would not. But how that's how how are they gonna are they what

are they gonna? Are they gonna lure them with stuff? I mean like is he building like complex traps? And you know, how do you and then what do you do? We just did The city of New York, the largest city in the United States of America, found the inability to deal with two thousand extra people. The third largest city found the inability to deal with eleven hundred extra people. Talk about U Chicago, their governor winding over the weekend. So you're telling me, even though it maybe of a of

a you know, a different political persuasion. You're telling me that our government, in any way, shape or form, could round up all the journalists and all the LGB is it is it just gay or is it all the other letters? I think they implied it was all the letters and then the two Spirits and the other ones. You're like, what is that that as

well? So I'm not saying government can't do large scale roundups. I'm just saying they've shown this wild inefficiency and if your plan is that's probably what he'll do. I mean, we don't know for sure, but I think we know for sure, and they have a track have a track record. Yes, I don't know if you can tell my next gen computers decided to reboot.

I really want to play the audio and I'm hoping that it really well let me do this, because I thought it would just do it in a timely manner, and it's thinking, so we will, well, we're going to get to all of this, and then you couple that with the insanity that was football. And I want to get this discussion in early, not necessarily just early, but I want to be very strategic. But when we when we do it, because I'm concerned about a guy, and so I

think we have to make a pack here on the show. As I'm dragging this out more, we gotta make a pact on the show Ross. I think at seven forty five and eight forty five this morning, we maybe we talked about Miss America pageant or something with cross talk yuh, because like, dude, I felt so bad for him. I I sign here's the deal

I saw. I did because I like Ray and I like my buddies too, but not on Sunday all the time, you know what I mean, like, because they're they're boisterous and and and and they talk a lot a lot. Well, I say, Sunday me whatever date is. But and and that's fine, it's you know, that's Texas football fandom in a nutshell and whatever and and and and and they're not hypocrites, like you know, something bad happens to him, it's just but it was wow, Wow,

that was the thing. And I was torn because it was thing at the hands of my usual enemy, the Green Bay Packers. And now there's no NFC East teams and there's two NFC North teams and I don't know what happened. So I couple I couple all of these together because maybe we're all hallucinating. It's just so weird. Man. We'll start the breakdown. We'll get to the audio. I'm gonna kick a computer that's Monday on a Tuesday,

and how we do it here on the CaCO Day Radio program. This is one O six one FM, Talk in the Triangle and News Talk ninety four f w PTI and the Triad. Yeah, I mean, they didn't move you to Detroit this time. She had that going for you. I remember I was sitting there and I'm watching and they're like, ah, they they decided to when they said they were move in your game. Oh yeah, because at first they were like saying, hey, you should go down to

Atlanta. I was like, no, you shouldn't. No no, no, no, no, no no no. So I mean that's a better alternative than you know, either moving to Atlanta or you know, last time they put them in Detroit, which is a dome. So it's you know essentially at that point, Yeah, it doesn't it doesn't preserve the conditions.

And even though it took you guys next day and uh, Fortune Magazine made it sound like they like none of you guys would show up to shovel for for five bucks or whatever theyre I can't remember where they offered, No, just twenty bucks. And I think it was like bring your own shovel the shovel, I don't know. I felt like they were trying to say that, oh, look that Bill's fans are not showing up. No, I

mean the state was packed. Yeah, I saw their picture they used, but I also remember seeing some video where I'm just like, oh, oh man, they're gonna love that one. Yeah. No, so you know, they put the tarp over the field and stuff, a clear that off. So the field was fine, but then you look at the the seating area of the stands, yeah, and it was like you have people like

sitting on top of snow banks and stuff. It was crazy. I think they made the right call though, because when you see videos of this storm that went through there with that lake front snow, it was bad news, dude. And like Buffalo fans are lunatics and there they will drive to the stadium in that in that weather. Well that's the concern. Yeah, move it to Detroit. And last year during that blizzard was like forty seven people died in Buffalo because of that storm. So yeah, and then they moved

the Bills games. You guys stay in your house and not drive, and UH were like, oh, it's an advantage for Buffalo. Well not really, because now you play Kansas City. Kansas City is gonna have two extra days of rest, and after the Bills lost so many players on defense yesterday, that's not really a plus positive right to have the team is two extra days of rest. I well, that's I hear you. I hear you there. And and some would say there's some historical beef there as it,

you know, as it pertains to this particular playoff game position. Also, I mean, an amazing game to watch if I guess, if you're not a fan of either team, just you know from you know that from you know, step back and let everything play out. But no, look, I this is why I don't. This is why I don't. This is what I was telling you, is why I don't text you during anything. Okay, listen, I I appreciate you and I love the hell out of

you because you are courteous and you understand the process. Yeah, yeah, no, because I don't want to be up in your head during that. I don't, right, you know, text me during the game, you leave me alone, and if the Bills do lose the next day, the following day, you tend not to bring it up until I do, which

I greatly appreciate. And I'm the same way with you. When the Vikings lose, yeah, do not bring it up and listen right, yes, yes, because I'm watching this game and the Bill Josh Allen goes on a fifty two yard run, which was incredible, and my phone blows up, and I'm like, you a holes, I'm my my in laws are own intern Ivan Michael, Who's house? I'm gonna bulldoze? Uh? Didn't you go to Ivan's wedding? Yeah? I love them to death, but what

are you guys doing? Like, listen, if the Bills are up twenty one and nothing, and these texts are like, oh, the Bills got in the bag twenty one to nothing. There's nothing those dealers can do. Oh my god, you gotta be feeling so good right now. I'm like, no, I do stop texting me. You are cursing the team.

You don't understand the Bills could be up fifty six to nothing at halftime, and a vast majority, a vast majority of the fans who have been fans as long as I have, like forty something years, are sitting back going. Look like that. We could be up fifty six to nothing at halftime, and the vast majority of Bills fans are sitting at home going, We're

probably gonna lose this game. We're gonna lose the game. Four Super Bowls, thirteen seconds against Kansas City, Music City, Miracle game, numerous games against the Vikings. Just be quiet until the game is over because you're gonna curse it, and Marky will tell me during game time. We'll tell you during game time. I'm sitting there, you know, I try to avoid the game, try to clear my mind. But I'm checking Twitter and I'm trying it to because I'm very superstitious, and she knows, do not even

speak to me. He touches his hand with his left or the phone with his left hand, not as right. And you texted me afterwards, and I was very appreciative of that because you understand it and you respect that. But everybody else, I'm like, you guys need to chill out well because I don't like being gas lit by people. And you you you approach what

I texted about as a fan. I approach it as the media screwing with me again, you know what I'm saying, So like reunited on them, I just said, And it wasn't an analysis of your injury situation as any of the rest. I'm just like, Josh Allen just scored four touchdowns because you ran one? Is he three or three ran one? And and uh uh, damn boys got sent back to Demn Holmes for the rest of the

damn years. So like Dack to all these guys pro bowlers, and like when Josh Allen made that run, you know, I said, I'm sitting at home. I said, he's not a He's not a Pro Bowlers. In the MVP discussion even right, MVP not a pro Bowler, not all pro okay, whatever, all right, I just say there's some bias there.

Sub would some would just angry Bills fans who need to have to need to have a bunch of snow around them at all times, so if they do light themselves on fire, the rolling is more effective or I don't know now, when it comes to Sunday, if the Bills can get some of those defensive players back, because I know one is out for good, but other ones. It's just sort of banged up a little bit, and we

are going to be getting I think Douglass back our cornerback on Sunday. If we can get some of those defensive players back, I feel good about the game. Okay, If not, I don't feel so good. And here's the other thing. Like when these games on Twitch, I predicted every game game correctly except the Rams game. I thought the Rams are going to beat the Lions. That was wrong about that one. But I did pretty agree. You had the Cowboy ye, sure did, Sure did. But the

only game that it wasn't sure about. The only game that I was like had no clue and it was doubtful about was the Bills game because I've been a Bills fan and I'm used to heartbreak the Eagles last night. Although the Eagles, like you could that was more if you watch how they played the last couple of weeks, you could see that transition there. So they've been playing like hot garbage. Yeah, it's not been good Bush. The Bucks

had. The Bucks had a little bonus advantage. Right. All you had to do is during the pregame, watch what happens right as they're getting ready to go to it. Who was that Burlison? And I can't remember the woman's name, the host where all of a sudden they found themselves a well, here we go. Gee of course goes running after her and it's his buddy and it was Rick Flair. It is I can great, is it? Thanks for joining us to me? Wait? Wait, wait, So

Rick Flair runs the International the people in charge of the Internet. I mean, I'll live and Rick Flair controls the Internet world rather than like World Economic Forum. I feel like it'll be a little more fun. Oh, thank you guys. My god. When I saw him on street, I I felt bad because I would discs I'm moving and I was saying at the addition and lucky enough to run into you guys. So sir, But as you

know, buccaneers mans go, we're picking the books. And when you want, you want to be the man, I tried to go, you want to be the man, you gotta beat the man, And right now the man is a Tampa Bay buccaneers. Whoa, that's the way to end nartext man. You've got to be a style and profile jet fine, kiss me the Wheeler dealings again. Yeah, I don't know it's gonna work next week. But that was fun to watch this week. How do you get him

on that? You need to get him on the bills? Bandwagon, man, you gotta steal Rick Flair away, That's what you guys, Because Rick Flair, if you ask who does he roof? I would have assumed the bills if I didn't know. I don't know why. I don't mean that as an insult. I just mean that the show after the show is on the iHeart Radio app. Search Casey oday for the podcast on the iHeart radio app. All right six thirty five and welcome back Cacy O Day Radio program.

I for one am looking forward to watching Swifties meet? Is that wrong? Is it wrong for me to look forward today? And and also where? Where? Does like they're probably gonna have to build a hotel for her in Buffalo? I'm trying, only been to Buffalo a couple of times. I'm not like there's not a four seasons there, so I don't even know how that works, right, did she just read you guys just give her city hall or whatever, because you know that that that's gonna be a thing.

But I think it's also going to be a thing dealt with very interestingly by Bill's fan. I think you're going to be very disappointed. I think they're going to be incredibly polite to her. No, they will, they will. That's how they are. The I retweeted the photo of it's a classic photo of Hillary Clinton going into that apartment during the fourth floor walk up

studio, dirty thing from the forties. Yeah, and it's heart walking into the kitchen with that look on her face like, oh good lord, you live here, and just says Taylor Swift walking into the nicest hotel in Buffalo. But you know what, if she stays at your hotel, you make your bones on that. Do you know what I'm saying? Going forward, everyone in Buffalo would be like, that is indisputably the nicest hotel in Buffalo. Uh, the Taylor Swift right it out, the whole two floors or

something. So you got that going for you, That's all I'm saying. Uh. But that's why I want to get this in early, because I I don't want I don't want to do this to poor Ray. I some fans I got into the dumbest, stupidest argument, not an argument yesterday, but just somebody or no, it was two days ago. But somebody was sitting there running their mouths and they're you know, they're talking about and they were talking about Dallas. Uh, you know they could they they could come

back. They could come back and maybe set a set a record for comeback, which I don't believe was mathematically possible. Well, I'd have to check. But then one of the guys is he's a Patriots guy. He's like, you know, you know what I when you hear about a pretty impressive record for comeback, Ross, I don't know if you've heard this. Apparently the Patriots came back one time from a pretty big margin, which I'm aware of. I've been sent to memes. I told the dude, I'm like,

you know that's not the record comeback, right, Ross? You knew that was not the record comeback the twenty eight three? Yes, yes you did. Yeah, apparently some people didn't know. And I explained to him that the record comeback and he goes, well, I don't know what was

And I was like, well, it was two years ago. And I could see a rack his brain trying to figure out if the Patriots came back from a larger margin, and they did not the record for largest comeback in NFL history was the Minnesota Vikings two years ago go against the Colts, to which immediately goes, wow, those are the Colts. And that was the super Bowl, which is fair, but the Colts were playoffs. They were still in the playoff hunt at the time. Noah granted it wasn't the best

chance, but there was that. So I'll yield that. And and I'm like, you know, and I said, do you want? And then the quarterback matters too, and he's like yeah, And if you know a Super Bowl quarterback, you're you're good. I'm like, yeah, you're right. Do you know who that was for the Falcons against the Patriots that took that took that Elder Ross? Do you remember the quarterback in Atlanta? Matt Ryan? Remember Matt maddy Ice or whatever they call it, Matty Ice.

Do you know who is the quarterback for the Colts in the largest comeback in NFL history two years ago by the Minnesotawakens. That would be Matt Ryan, who then went to the Colts. So so anyway, I did enjoy dropping that little truth bomb and attempting to irritate because I don't have any I don't have a dog in the fight. Do you know what I mean? I have a dog in the fight, So all I can do is really stir the pot. And I accept my role as a non playoff team fan.

And also one it was like I don't want us there because everybody's half dead and I don't know that it goes well for us. And then we had like a new resurgence with past or not for two games and now he's the fourth string or something like nobody knows what's happening. Just craziness, all right,

So we got that's doing. We got Iowa Trump coming out following the fifty one percent percent of the caucus Photy received and then basically the other forty nine percent split with DeSantis and Hayley and then also a percentage for Vivek and uh well here is here is Trump talking about that. I also want to congratulate to think because he did a hell of a job. He came from zero and he's got a big percent probably eight percent, almost eight percent.

And that's an amazing job. They all did. There are very smart, very smart people, very capable people. It's like, here's the thing, and we said this from day one, that is Donald Trump, for my esteemed colleague from Montana, right where they're taught, you know, where you just know they're getting ready to unload on this other member of Congress that they hate, but not really because they go to lunch with them all the time.

But yeah, you got a fundraise, right. But with Trump, it's like it's that it's that odd nicety, except he does it in this very transparent manner. It's it's the same thing but with a wildly different delivery. And what is of course interesting in that is based on I think it was seven point seven his not Trump's campaign, but round Swamy's campaign. They

made a decision. As I've said since the beginning, there are two America First candidates in this race, and earlier tonight I called Donald Trump to tell him that I congratulated him on his victory and now going forward, he will have my full endorsement for the presidency. And I think we're going to do the right thing for this country, and that is that's a guy who wants to be in a cabinet position or maybe even vice president. But that's you

know, it's the nature of things. It's just it's in an environment where there's a lot of new ways less now than you know twenty sixteen, but new ways in which the same old things just continue to play out. Right, a candidate or a politician low blowing an opponent only to later have them, you know, even within their own party, only to have them you know, now they're buddies now, Like that's not a new thing. What was a new thing with Trump? Is he accuse one of the other guys

who adorsed him of his dad helping to kill another president. I mean, that's it. That was the nuance of it, right, and and has old as his wife. So yeah, look, it's crazy, But is it any more crazy than Whoopy Goldberg on this thing that I referenced earlier. Here we go. I'm gonna be on day one. I'm gonna be a dictator who says it to you, tells you, I'm gonna put you people away. I'm gonna take all the journalists, I'm gonna take all the gay

folks. I'm gonna move you all around and just period. If that's the country you want, you know who to vote for them, that's not. If that's not the country you want, you have to make a decision. By the way, what is Joy Bayhart? Is that how the bags are I mean, obviously she's being sarcastic. She firmly believes that. In her her weird, almost happy listen, you'll hear her laugh. It's crazy. I'm gonna be on day one. I'm gonna be a dictator who says it

to you, tells you, I'm gonna put you people away. I'm gonna take all the journalists, I'm gonna take all the gay fights. I'm gonna move you all around and disappear you. If that's the country you want, you know who to vote. Come on, man again, you couldn't. You couldn't figure out how to move a tense city for a night without irritating

the crap out of so many people in a wildly unnecessary manner. With you have access to so many venues that could have easily held them, and you're like, nah, we're gonna put them in that school right there, and I'm gonna tell the kids stay at home and not come to school. And then if anybody questions, it would be like, do you want migrants to drown? And I'm just like no, But I've been to I've been to

New York and I remember there being other buildings. Are you aware of this, that they have other buildings in New York, large buildings, big ones. ROSSA. You're from New York State, I know, not New York City, but you had heard that they have a lot of like big buildings, many of them very tall, right, I have heard that. Yes, yeah, that is That's the thing, unless it's changed. Last I was in New York was over the holiday. Well, I was at jay

I was at JFK Airport. But I could see the buildings coming in and I could see them going out. So unless or or maybe that's a hologram, right, just try to keep us, you know, like we're in the matrix and fully full of fooled. Because I didn't actually leave the airport. I thought of going from one terminal to another because I was in the terminal where there was no I couldn't go to any of the clubs that my

ticket would have been okay for. And they're like, well, no, if you leave this terminal, you got to leave security and go in. I'm like, oh, you don't connect between the terminals. That's smart, that's the way to do that. The hell is this? But I saw it from the air so there's that. So yeah, I mean sure.

Again, if you're going to make these prognostications, the problem is is you have a track record of all the stuff that you said he was going to do, like like your deepest, darkest self projection in some instance fares of martial law. And I mean, I'm not going to dig into the whole

lot IBr of everything they said. He didn't do any of that. And then after he's done, you're like, well, what we got to do this time or after he's on the first term, we're gonna readily admit that we're going to quote fortify the system against him, and that's from the public and private sector. And you're like, isn't that kind of stuff you're accusing him of and that you did? What does that even mean? Uh? What a duality of stuff going on that matters but also doesn't matter. Well,

it matters to Rachel Maddow. And I've I've realized ross the thing that I might be most looking forward to, purely from a selfish standpoint, is do you remember the golden days of soundbites following the twenty twenty sixteen election. Of course I do. I mean I remember that every day, every day'd wake up, I'd come to the station like what can I load audio? Can I load today? Here's this right, yeah, here's this guy,

here's a girl melting down, here's another, Here's seventy two more. And unfortunately it kind of, you know, reality sets in and it waned in

its awesomeness. Remember that Trump super cut that went around forever where it was it was the timeline of the election, and it kind of opened with like a culture on Bill Mahers show, and and then eventually you see this escalating series of cuts of the of the networks having to call states, and it culminates with Trump coming out, sorry, serious business or whatever he said. That thing had what seven quad trillion whatever that number you made up the other

day view of views on YouTube. It still does. But it required all of Barack Obama. Will you at least I'll be president, like we need that. That's the way that you fuel that. And madaw Man, she's uh, I guess she's willing to get back into it. The big picture takeaway from that, and I don't mean to be again too dark as you said on this, but it is not. If we are worried about the rise of authoritarianism in this country, we are worried about potential rise of fascism

in this country. We're worried about our democracy falling to an authoritarian and potentially fascist form of government. Yeah, you know, one of the hallmarks of those kinds of governments is the either elimination of elections or overt manipulation of them. But you know that, right, There's a reason that Pinochet got a lot of votes. There's a reason that Kim Jong un still does well. Although what was he down like ninety seven percent last time? I mean,

public might be finding out. So anyway, I'm sorry, go on, Queen. The leader who is trying to do that is part of that equation, but people wanting that much bigger part of that express And the American electorate is made up of two major parties. One of those parties has been flirting with extremism on the ultra right for a very long time. I guess wrong when she said that they've brought them in in a way that they haven't been

central to Republican electoral politics ever before. And I know because I've been studying this uh huh uh huh yeah, let me uh you have. I feel like you've been studying just one side of this because right. The flirtation with extremism is not a uniquely right or left issue. It's about what he is, a hyperpartisan monster in the form of political party, because that's what it is. Trying to figure out what's the largest tent I can offer without scaring

off people on the without spilling people on the ends. It's not positive business. It's not great in in a in a in a pure sense of the word. But it's not a unique thing either, right. The uh, the boo Jews movement of the left is insane, but I still want them to vote. So in the same way you got a problem with you see as right leaning authoritarians. I just again, But that's that's Mattow. All

right, I gotta take a break. Hang on smart talk all day nine w p T I in the triad and one six one m talked in the triangle. All right, real quick, this email, Sorry, buddy, gonna disagree anyone who calls for the eradication of a race you're not gonna vote? Was I was I implying that I thought it was a good thing that uh, there is this Hey, we're going to figure out where the gray line is on the part of politics and politicians because it's a numbers game.

No, I didn't say it was a good thing, right, In the same way that trying to carve out some reasonable nature for some of the statements by members of the squad and then being people who are like, oh my god, could you believe somebody went to a Louren Bobert thing? Right, I'm saying that one. I don't feel they're on the same level, But mostly I feel like you're a giant hypocrite at that point, Like I don't there's I don't find a lot of usefulness for people who are particularly in my

mind, insane, regardless of which end of the spectrum they're on. I'm merely observing the phenomena. I'm just being honest that that's a thing. So please don't miss and interpret where I'm at on that. But that's where I'm at on that. So we'll get your calls coming up. Wait, hold on, think this, Oh great achievement for the Vikings. I think the key piece for the pass comeback was timeline. You were down twenty eight three and a half, Roz we were down thirty three nothing do you can you

do some math? I'm sorry to make you do math thirty three to zero, twenty eight to three. Would you tell me if one is greater than the other. All right, he's telling me the thirty three number might be greater than the Noah, I'm just saying, if you were a Patriots fan who all of a sudden became a Tampa fan, are you now are you committed for the follow through? That's what I was asking. I don't know that. I don't know how. I don't know how bandwagon rules apply here.

So that's why I was a little confused, because now your boy's gone, but now your other boy's gone too. If you need a home, I you know, I'll get you. We'll get you some purple. Let you blend into it. You want to go red, white and blue over with uh with Buffalo, You're welcome to do that. I'm just saying, you know, come on, it's okay, but you gotta stick with it. You got to see it through. That's all I'm saying. Let me get a call to kick it off this hour, Donna. What's up?

Good morning, Casey? Nothing nothing, Trump's that beautiful Edelman catch. Come on now, But that's not why I'm calling. Okay, that aside, you're talking about how you know they turned into mental cases. An example I found on Twitter yesterday, really got back somewhere you never left. But yeah, but on this particular issue, just not where they didn't leave off for

a minute. I've been trying to figure it out, you know, like why they hate him so much, And I think a big part of it is is that they're the participation trophy class and when the Hillary lost, they just they couldn't take it. I understand why they hate him so much. It's just like that's not new in the reason why. It's the execution thereof And I think it has been a large part because you know, he never

yielded for a moment in clowning on them. And you know whereas a lot of politicians just to go along to get along would would say, you know, we've seen it historically. We'll sit there and allow themselves to be demonized in that manner, whether they earned it or not, just in this weird keep the peace, thinking that one day it'll pay big dividends. And I was I told I talked about Trump last week kind of when early on thinking

that he could schmooze people. But once you figured that out, he was done schmoozing, and all he had to do was look to that second big press conference in the Yellow Room where he upgraded the fake news status of one journalist got into it with the NPR lady, and I mean it was you realize that, all right, this is where we are, this is where we're. Yes, it's on. I'm going to get this in yesterday.

And this is what they do. This is how they work. That comment that he made about even if you vote then pass away it's worth it, Yes, he cut took that line and said Trump's ultimate loyalty test. But would you die for me? Yep? Cult Yeah? Or or he's trolling over an actual argument that was made in Pennsylvania by the Democratic Party, which is what well over voters who would cast ballots. Yeah, because there is a process for or that you cast about on election day and you go home

and die that day. There's state law around it there. And what the problem was is there was an absentee about you know, the drop box because everything was crazy during COVID. So I took that as him trolling and it didn't work. I get it now, Yeah, Or maybe it wasn't. Maybe maybe you know what I'm saying, but that's how I was. He's still playing that three D chess. Maybe I was five. We're up to five D. Now it's crazy day in quantum plans. We can't even understand

or or he just said something because he says stuff. You know what I'm saying. It's either it's either trolling or to stop sending me scoring flow charts of Patriots super Bowl stuff. All right, one person who's just discussing, I got another person who's I'm not. This is why I asked Ross to do the math. I don't know if thirty three minus zero is still more than twenty eight minus three. I think it is. But for all produtical for this is Monday. For me, my brain's not on yet. Don't

ask us of this, or don't just look at that. Don't ask this of us. That would be the way to say it. That's how not my brain is on. By the way, it wasn't just Rachel Maddow, the aforementioned Joy Behar who just gave that weird laugh to Whoope during her audio earlier, or Joy Reid. I'm sorry that Joy Reid. I was gonna say Joy Reid just like Joy Behar, and because they're both named Joy. But I see say again, I'm proving I shouldn't be allowed to do math.

If my thirty three minus zero or twenty eight minus three are wrong, then I'll figure it out later when the brain finally kicks him. But I don't think it is. Meanwhile, Joy read, much like the aforementioned Joy behar of earlier, was in fact not full of joy. The important sort of data point, and you know, Steve talks about it a lot. He's he's gonna probably talk about a little more tonight, is that these are

white Christians, that this is a state that is overrepresented. Wait, wait, hold on, Ros You didn't live in Iowa, but you could see Iowa and for some reason, your airport's in Iowa. Right, Yeah, we would drive over in accounts of Bluffs to get an extra hour drinking. Oh that's right, and they got casinos over there, h a star. Yeah. Do you ever notice white people with Iowa? I sure did. Oh wow, because you think you see everything through a lens of race,

that was what it was. Well, no, but you were there for the drinking, so maybe that like it wasn't informing your decision, it was just Hey, that's where the booze is for an extra hour. Almost was so weird because there's like you think you're on one side of the river, but there's one side of there's a part of Omaha and this weird like river loop where the airport is, that's actually Iowa. It's kind of strange, man. But then if you go on where you think where you're sure you're

on the other side of the river, you are in Iowa. That's where the booze and and yambling is. And according to read here, all the the white people that like to go to church presented by white Christians that are going to participate in these cathices, especially tonight i today, earlier today reached out to Robert Jones, Robbie Jones from the Public Religion Research Institute, knowing

that we were going to talk about Iowa. And this is a hyper even Okay, yeah, and I'm sure, I'm I'm gonna have to stop this because there's so much dumb here. You had to get a research person involved to know that Iowa is a lot of white Christian people versus other states, Like did you have you have you ever seen a coverage of the caucuses in

Iowa before you work in the news. What is what is Iowa if not weeks usually of both sides, but just weeks and weeks of politicians who don't want anything to do with Iowa in all honesty, right going to every fair and every restaurant and just and like in Iowa, there's people that love it, and then there's the people like the lady who just wants to get ranches at dressing and cursing Gillibrands in the way, do you know what I mean?

Or that guy who was sitting at the remember Biden trying to talk to that dude sit at the diner table who is literally his body language. Remember the body language segments are Iley used to do, Like I don't have to be that chick watching that dude, watching that dude try to sit there and just not look at Biden so he come over and talk to him, like I feel that. But knowing and seeing all of this, it's gave me a pretty good understanding that Iowa is. Is Iowa a bell weather of politics

for the entire nation? I mean, arguably it's It is a bit middle of the road in how it has ended up voting for president in the past, more so than some states. But no, in the same way that I don't think South Carolina represents the totality of the US or California or Florida or you know, pick whatever state it is. It's just what it is, and then you have to sit there and evaluate it through the lens of

your own research. But I don't know, you need to bring a special person in to go, Hey, I have a sneaking suspicion that I was full of white people. Yeah, it's not one hundred percent full, but it is. If she says overly represented, what makes it overly represented? Does that mean I think that the southern US and the Rust Belt, which have the highest percentage of black populations in the state, do I feel that

that is an overrepresentation versus Idaho. No. I feel like there's two distinctly different reasons and stories as to why mass migration out of the South post, you know, reconstruction was the thing. In the same way that Idaho was not nothing against Idaho. It's beautiful, but come on, jelical white state. And he said the following to me, Iowa is about sixty one percent white Christian. The country as a whole is approximately forty one percent white.

Christian and in Iowa, we're talking about evangelical white Christians. And he said following, Because I asked them, what do they get out of Donald Trump? Because he keeps losing, he keeps delivering losses and loss and losses. And he said the following. They see themselves as the rightful inheritors of this country and Trump has promised to give it back to them. Okay, all right, Well, to be fair, is are they inheritors or takers of

the country? Because the narrative I'm used to do you know, do you understand the nuance that I'm asking Are they the inheritors of the takers? I guess you could argue that they're the inheritors of the takers? But is and what does that mean? Give them their country back? I mean, aren't you sitting there during the Trump presidency going this is not this is not who we are. How many times do you think the line this is not who we are was blurted out on MSNBC or CNN during Trump's first term, all

of them, probably all of them. I mean that had to be on average every other sentence whatever. Right, So, in your own way, you wanted to look to a candidate who would bring the adults back in the

room. I believe it is one way it was described. So you sought somebody who you thought was going to restore what you thought America was, which is kind of the whole point of a presidential election, if I'm not mistaken, figure out who you think may not be one hundred percent, but figure out who you think is more likely to give you the experience that you feel

America is. And you know, you're a person's vision for America when evaluated by another person, could be like quaint, nostalgic, horrific, right, But that's why then the other person gets to have an opinion. So I don't think your vision is right. In fact, I think it's downright diabolical or I just you know, all right, fine, yeah, I'm with you. That kind of thing. That's that's that's where this is. She brought, She brought, as Mitch Hedberg would say, she brought ink and

paper into this. For this is easy. This is a layup man, not a layups. That's when I figured out I was horrible at basketball. Ross it was like innermural, young kid, and I get a breakaway. All I have to do is just do. No one's even pursuing me. And do you think I made that layup? I did not make that layup. It haunts me to this day. You just took off and dunked it.

No, I did not do that either. I way too quickly when nobody was coming after me like I was Michael Jordan, decided I would do this thing where I would do the layup at full speed instead of stopping. And that hit the back road. Yeah, kind of so hard. It basically gave the back the ball back to the other team on their side. What a way to pass it back to your teammates so he could dunk it. Yeah, I did not. It went to the other people. I

probably if I just stopped. They so they gave so little crap that I had the ball that if I just stopped and missed, I'd have got my own rebound and another opportunity. So maybe I shouldn't use that term. Oh uh, nothing else Idaho? Have you heard of the way? Yeah? My mom my mom. Once the kids left, she ended up buying a place up by Cordelane. And that's that's the thing up there. That is a thing, that is the thing that U is in and around the uh

Quarterlane and sand Lake. More specifically, Idaho area got a lot of people are really short haircuts in some very cold climate. But also when I think of Iowa, it's not who I think of. I think of a little bit of the Western stuff, and I think about Idaho or Idaho. Excuse me, not Iowa is having a lot of potatoes, sharing some agricultural interest with Wyoming. I had some friends there. I went to high school rodeo there a couple of times, just across the border. And oh yeah.

It's also it's way more Mormons than you think are in Idaho. Everyone just thinks Utah. You have no idea, not a good or bad thing. It's just observational. So yeah, you take it all. Man. Isn't that where Glenn Beck's thing is, his whole fortresses right just there at southern Idaho. That part of southern Idaho is basically an extension of Utah. I mean, if this could help too with the visual, That's where they filmed Napoleon Dynamite, right yeah, yeah, the house right there, because Beck's

place is near that house, right yeah. So I don't know that's and then every that's that the cell way if you don't know what the cellway is just some of the greatest elk cunting in the world. That's when you can start to get a little panhandled, but not quite all the way up. And then a bunch of Hollywood a holes do a film festival out there in this one. The it's like it's like their version of Jackson, Right.

It's a place where nobody from Idaho actually lives, even though it's in Idaho, except if you are staff and you live in like the staff quarters of one of those places that's Iowa Today or Idaho Toda. There you go. Yeah, I'm sorry, I gotta go. Did you want to say something? I got about ten seconds. I gotta go to breaks, So I'm gonna say. I mean, they're not racist. They they elected a Hispanic school president. If you remember the film right, yeah, yeah, yeah,

it was right there. Vote Pedro. Come on, we'll be back your day Smarter one O six one FM Talk and News Talk ninety four five w PTI more with Casey starts now. Oh man, this is going to bring joy in my life today. I hope it gets it starts to build uh so uh but it is also interesting and I'll have a straight up discussion about this, because I think that the platform, obviously ex Twitter, whatever

you want to call it, I think is is still wildly useful. I wonder if the way this is what I'm torn with because I can't figure I can't figure out if him monetizing it was a good thing or a bad thing. And I didn't think i'd feel that way, but it it really opened this door for now a fundamental change in how people approach trying to get engagement. And you know, to some extent, I think it'll filter out because

I find myself slowly ross. I don't know how you are. I find myself slowly noting those accounts who were just farming engagement and they didn't and especially if they do this they go into a popular post. It used to be if somebody did a popular post, there was some scammer, right, raise money for the kids of Martina or what. I remember that guy everywhere like a hundred accounts like I get that. But then others who would be like, ah, here's Donald Trump, or no, here's here's the thatak saying

he's dropping out of the race. And then for no reason I can understand, there's an account that just posts fight videos from like six years ago, and they're like, yeah, that's cool, but how about this in the comments? I can't stay Yeah, that's the thing I hate now. And you see like someding like, oh, let me check out the comments. What do people have to say this? And it's like a post that has nothing to do with it, trying to get their own I think I'm back

on I think I'm back on my timeline. I think I accidentally clicked back because it's so random. Do you know what I mean? That's just so I like, I don't know, but here's what I can get down with. So Elon had said something along the lines of, you know, mister B should post his stuff on h on Twitter, he'd make more money, Which that's an interesting concept obviously. You know, dude gets a lot of engagement. It's on YouTube. I don't know that he's he's bringing his program

over. But YouTube doesn't demand exclusivity that I'm aware of. Do they do? They lie? I because there's content creators on TikTok that are on YouTube that are on other stuff, unless I guess, unless you have a big contract with him. Does Twitch require that you can only stream with them? Or could you go over to what's the other way kick or whatever? You

can so you can stream unless the rules have changed lest I knew. Like, say you like a streamer of Twitch and you're like, I want to stream on YouTube and then kick at the same time, right right, Uh, if you do that, you cannot profit, so you can't monetize it possible, but you can't. You can't. You can't. But you can do independent content for all three, correct, But you can't do the same broadcasts in all three. Can't do the same live content. But you could

post because what I'll see. What I see dudes do is they post portions of their Twitch stream then on YouTube, but it's after is that allowed? Yeah yeah? Or you can like cut it up or make it different. Yeah yeah. They're like, hey, here's here's from the show earlier, here's the best hour or whatever. Then they throw it over on which, okay, whatever, do what you're gonna do. So, uh, what was interesting is then mister Beast, who is a obviously a North Carolina legend,

I I I've not I've never loved or hated. I've always I've always found enjoyment in what he does. Although he is I feel like, I'm too old for the quickness of the cut scenes. Does that sound weird? Like the energy level is always at one hundred in those videos, and I got to be in the right frame of mind. But I appreciate what he's

doing. I appreciate what he's doing. My most enduring moment was they there was this one little snippet where they're at an event that has obviously not been organized well, and like, I don't want to say he breaks character because it's he doesn't really break it, but it's like you could tell where he's just like, look, I don't have time for this crap. Y'all are dumb. Here's how you need to be doing it. And there's a curse

word in there, and I'm like, yeah, I feel that. And then when he's out doing this stuff and like, you know, oh, he's fostering white savior complex. Like now I like the dude more so what does he do? He posts a video it's not a new video, but it's a video that they had done that did well, and he said it's one dollar car versus one hundred million dollar car, which is obviously it's the

grandiose span of what is his content? There and he posts that and he says, I'm curious how much revenue it will make, so I'm re uploading this and then I'll share ad revenue next week. And then Elon reposted it, which obviously helped. How many views does this thing you have already? Forty million? Is that a lot? Ross? Is that a lot? Forty million? And I think it is? Yeah. Then he posted it

yesterday, yes, say pretty good? Oh yeah, okay? And then this is this is this is the part where I I love this stuff. Then you start scrolling through there and it's three year letterman, the brilliant, brilliant troll account who just captures everybody goes this is absolutely pathetic, mister least, because part of the deal is intentionally getting the person's name wrong if were

unfamiliar with it. And the guy is an equal opportunity troller. In fact, he put a brilliant post out about who's easy and who's not easy to troll and certain certain fandoms and followers and whatnot. So now he's trolling. Elon. Fans are less susceptible because they're more familiar I think with Twitter. But also, uh, mister Beast fans and others and uh, I'm here for this. This is gonna this is gonna be great. I hope,

I hope. I hope it pays big dividends because I dive in there and people are already like, mister Beast makes millions, which is way more than you make. He's the greatest maker. Video fall. He says they have a full suit of armor. I don't about a vintage globe, you know what. I suspect he actually probably does have a suit of armor. I don't know, man, but a vintage globe? Come on, man, who is he the see the uh? The astores? I mean, I

mean, who has that kind of money anymore? You know what I'm saying. Finances is waterbed I mean yeah, but yeah, but it's also in the Master suite at Biltmore. I mean it's a point Biltmore. But does have a fountain view anymore? You had the whole wall torn off for one of those videos. Crazy, But did I see, Like, yeah, what what's funny about that, dude is remember they just they saw a squid game and he went, We're gonna do our own squid game. And they

did. Yeah, I did, like twenty people died. No, no, But but did they because I watched the video and they didn't. They didn't say that, but why would they? But then like Netflix is like, let's make our own game. Remember they decided to make a game, and then they were finding out that they nearly killed a bunch of the contestants

because they were like, like they were unable. The people who did the thing in the first place could not convert it into a live game in and and have it not turned into potentially almost a mass killing because they were making people stand there in for Red Rover in like wet, cold conditions for hours, is the allegation. But the YouTube guy could Yeah. Yeah, the guy from the dude from eastern North Carolina got it done and quick and everyone

looked happy even if they didn't win. So I don't know, man. Anyway, speaking of winning, Ray stage is here. Did you watch the you see who the new Miss America is? I did not? Oh? Yes, uh air Force Air Force officer. Oh that's cool. Cool, Yeah, that is pretty cool that Miss Colorado Air Force. Yeah anyone check that out? Yeah, check that out. What's up? What are you doing? Oh? Yeah, great? So much for dry January after Sunday's game? What what game? I'm sorry game. Yeah, I don't know

which what are you talking about? I was, dude, we're talking about the pageant? Ross? Were we not just talking about the pageant? We're just like for late the past four hours? Yeah, we started. We were like, we're gonna we're gonna do this to two hours and fifteen minutes early and here we are. Okay, okay, good. I thought maybe you'd lay lay it on me pretty thicks and so on you yesterday. Here's

what I'll say. Here's what I'll say. If you had told me at the beginning of the weekend there'd be no NFC East teams and two NFC North teams, I would not I would I would be like, you are already not doing the not drink January thing. Well, here here's what I'll I would say. The only surprise for me was the Texans. That was the only surprise, and not because they beat Cleveland, but because they beat them bad crap out of them. Yeah. I was rooted for Cleveland Detroit super

Bowl. Yeah, I was what are you gonna do? I was he and Turrey you know where I am with the Cowboys, that ain't it? And anybody who watches this team and that team play. The defense is not elite. They beat up on who they're supposed to beat up on, and all the stats come when they play crappy teams. I'm sorry, Micah Parsons, please do not put him in the same conversation as Lawrence Taylor. Wow wow, yep, fighting words. I am at that point. You want

to Alice, you don't do a hit in Dallas for you? Not occasionally, Yeah we do, but I fill into not the day man, don't know, Today's not the day. But anyway, you know, weatherwise, but you're gonna take it. He's gonna take his anger. Wait to hear what he's gonna do to your weekend, exactly exactly. It's gonna be as cold here as it isn't Dallas. Actually that's pretty talking to. Boys are gonna freeze, Yeah they are. They are. As the colder air starting

to come in now to our west and overspread the area. A little light precip around nine. Would be shocked if this morning maybe a little sleep pellet bouncing off a windshield, especially try it and west most of us really not much out of it, just some rain showers, and then as we get into the afternoon, we should see things turn a little colder, may steak into the forties today, maybe the mid forties, and then as the winds start to pick up, that's gonna be the Arctic air coming in tomorrow night.

Tonight you're gonna wake up in the teens. So tomorrow morning, excuse me, in the teens. The wind chills could be at or into the single digits, so very cold Wednesday morning, then only in the upper thirties in the afternoon, low twenties Wednesday night, Thursday morning, then Thursday near fifty. And then as we go through Thursday night early Friday, there's a

small chance we have another chance of maybe some light mixed precipitation. Probably gonna stay mainly rain, but as you go further west, maybe some light snowsleeter or freezing rain. And then up near fifty Friday before the next Arctic front comes in another cool down, getting colder again over this upcoming weekend, so cold airs on the way should be within the next few hours, very cold morning Tomorrow morning, again on Thursday morning, and then that cold a retreat

before it comes back. By Saturday and Sunday morning we're in the teens in low twenties once again. Well, I mean there's you know, there's sports, so there's that. There's always that. Now I just don't and I don't. Even My wife looks at me, like, my you're not even angry. I'm like, no, I said, I'm not surprised they lost. I mean I was surprised they got blown out because the score was. It sounds like you're little. I don't know. Well, usually I rub

it. I'm not here to run, you know why, because you don't track. I had a couple buddies. I told you I got cowboy fan buddies, and they have been obnoxious, right, and so they did get a little of that, but they was earned. It was earned. I'm not Yeah, I don't do that. I just so right, okay, all right, man, appreciate it, you know anyway. Madison marsh by the way, is the Miss America's name from Colorado. So there you go,

armed with the info. By the way, listen to this overachiever Air Force officer, second lieutenant and interning now at Harvard Medical School and Miss America plus Madison marsh Ross. Doesn't that sound like an intrepid female reporter from a comic book with Moxie and great Games? Like Vicky Vail issue, right, does hear that? I'm not trash it on her? Good for her? Man, you got so much going on at twenty two. I'm just like, oh, that's twenty two year old. That sounds exhausting. Is it

the real Harvard or like the extended school Harvard? It's Harvard Medical School? Okay. I mean they don't have a derived version of that that I'm aware of. But also who the heck knows anyway, That's that's the thing. Yeah, I think Gray was fine. I'm sure he's, you know, dealing with some stuff with other markets. But we're not going to be those

people. We're not. We're not here to do we would we would not do that to another fan base, like like that's childish, Like like Ross, would we post a picture of a fat Taylor Swift eating chicken wings? We wouldn't do that, would we? What? Let me just delete that real quick? What what would you? Ross? Now you didn't make that? I just want to be a fun I generated. They asked AI to generate a photo of Taylor Swift in Buffalo, and it's heard like a dive

bar eating wings at in morbidly obese. The wings though so good. Come on, there's no vegetables screwing things up. I mean, I mean, check out, check it out. Casey on the radio X something all right, well, well the monsters will be backing you. Connection. This ISNT four the triad and talk came the triangle. I enjoyed these moments when it's

clear people didn't click as I mean. It was a little remember when Twitter first started doing that thing where you want to retweet a story this is underdoor Sea and if you didn't read it, even if you had read it earlier, which is what would happen, right, I'd go and read it because you know, I'm going through prep or whatever. Then I'd see it on Twitter later and I might, you know, have some little comment. I was like, don't you want to read it first? I'm like, you

don't know whether I read it, shut up. But that was part of it. Although over the weekend I was watching the news story of the CEO of Barstools going to be leaving. And if you remember, there's a bunch of folks who don't like Dave Portnoy because he is I guess he's toxic masculinity squared or whatever. I don't know it kind of looks like a dude who won't put over your stuff. So there's that, and so they would They were just retweeting the story, which was headlined on the New York Post bars

here we go. And actually, now it's weird because now they have a different slight headline here. But if you see how it posted onto Twitter, it basically says barstool ceo is stepping down, and so all of these idiots

just thought that was he's not the CEO. And so like these these folks who are I guess journalists, didn't bother to click through into the story to figure out that the CEO of barstools, a woman by the name like Erica, ayers she's leaving and it's not It doesn't even sound like it's some weird bad thing. Yeah, here we go, the Barstool Exclusive, Barstool Sports CEO is leaving. And I saw these people tweeting and going, good, finally we got him. And I'm like, that's not even who that.

Did you click the story? You didn't click the story? Did you? You gotta click? And then when you click, you'll read stuff, and then then you'll you know, you'll know stuff. But also I'm like all right, this is good. Now I know exactly whose idiots that I got

to make sure I'm not following, so it did make that easy. Also over the weekend, we kind of got a little glimpse of this last at the end of last week, right where Iran's like, hey, that's our oil tanker now, and it's partially a US oil tanker, like the like the tank I think the tankers ares, but the Oiales Nun or the other way. I can't remember because it's like something with a Greek ownership company too.

So anyway, they just took that and I pointed out many pointed out, hey, that's crazy, because like I thought, we were given like giving them access to money and stuff and we were friends again. And then all of a sudden, Iran's like, yeah, yeah, I remember those you know those rebels. Yeah, we're totally funding that. So what do

you gotta do about it? Well, that's that's where we are. And Iran has continued to bomb two neighboring countries, and it's like, I'm for I distinctly remember the president saying we weren't gonna do this is your message to Hesbala, and it's backer Iran don't. Don't. Don't, don't. What's the message to Iran don't. It was very important to send a very clear message to anyone who he was lauded over this and then I ran when I don't have a translator. I don't know what they did. I didn't care

because they did. And this is where we find ourselves to kick things off this week. So we'll be keeping an eye on that, your calls and much more coming up. All right, good morning, everybody, and welcome to Tuesday, the Tuesday. That's right, ac O Day Radio program. Another of these four day work weeks. I'm gonna like them, big fan. Maybe we should do this all the time. So yeah, we're we're

in into that hour number three. I was just I was toll ross off the air, so like it's it's interesting because you have local perspectives based on you know a lot of times, who is your social media and where you've lived over the years, Right, So if you used to live somewhere, you probably still follow a little of the news there. And one of the ways that you get that is like you get it through stories that are being posted like I'm I'm I'm not one hundred percent away on everything going on in

Wyoming. But I have a pretty good outlook. It's like ross I was telling you off the air, because you you probably don't have hundreds of Wyoming followers and friends on your social media. I do. I went to school with all of them. And by the way, that's like a third of the state. And it's funny to watch. Wyoming is a place where you get to choose your own adventure. In the world of professional sports teams, there's an expectation you'll just go with Denver, but why I'm in Colorado.

Don't even really like each other. Like we make fun of Colorado, we call him Greenies back in the day. And it wasn't personal. It's just state rivalry stuff. But so you got to pick. He didn't have to go with Denver, and a lot of folks did. They went with Seattle. I went with Minnesota. It's not unusual. So with that in mind, though, when they find something to rally around, it's great. And the rally point is you guys over in Buffalo, Man because of Josh Allen.

Now, Josh Allen is not from Wyoming. He's from California, right, He's from California originally, and but he went and he played for the University of Wyoming and and did well obviously, and then ended up going to

the NFL. And and you know, it's kind of good at this and so it's funny to watch when they think he's being because there's a little bit of there's a little chip on the shoulder of a lot of people in Wyoming, not all of them, though, I think they do a good job of not giving a crap, but a little chip because you kind of feel like you're being disrespected for your size, right, so it's like it's like you're a five to one dude who I'm not picking on, but you get

you get the gist of it. And sometimes it's a positive when people have that perspective on Wyoming because you're like, that's good. We don't want a bunch of a holes coming out here anyway. But also you kind of get screwed on stuff like back in the nineties, University of Waoming's football team, I've mentioned this was not bad and hang on with sham and gets your call here in just a moment. In fact, they were nationally ranked a couple

of years. I think they were as high as sixth uh and then come bowl season, they didn't get a bowl or they I mean they got like the not a notable bowl, even though they were one of the best teams in the country and not just within the whack schedule, which it was at the time Western Athletic Conference, but they had they had knocked off some big time teams and then you get a bowl there's like, well, there's not enough of you to travel, so screw all, y'all. And and while

that's disrespectful, it also caused the program to hemorrhage recruits. So this D one football program, which you know was doing everything they were supposed to, was basically told, hey, even if you guys do well, you're not

going to get the publicity. So if you're a if you're like a four or five star recruit, you're not entertaining that a three stars non cause you realize you're not going to get the There is a cult of personality that goes along with parlaying this eventually into an NFL career, and you're not going to achieve that at Wyoming. So that's the little chippy stuff. So it's really

funny because you because of your influence. My Twitter feed, the show twitter feed is heavily Bills and because of me growing up in Wyoming, my Facebook feed is heavily Wyoming and it's all the same posts of people, right, Oh yeah, they love him and he's getting a raw deal and this is just what they do to guys and it's great. I love it. I love seeing the same things posted so anyway, man, So that's that's going

on there. And then like the the wolf thing. If you've never I know that, we deal with wolves in the form of the Red Wolf out there. I'm not pleased where we're gonna dive into that. I understand everyone's position here, but wolves are a big deal out in the Western United States. You know, when they're putting them in Yellowstone, it was like it was like it was crazy in Montana and Wyoming, in Idaho with ranchers, man, they were like they were threatening to go out and just murder all

of them. And obviously the Yellowstone thing did its thing. They did have some rob some predation issues up towards Red Lodge and whatnot, and there were some wolves that I guess left and I don't know with suspicion as to what happened and the reason for the reintroduction of wolves in Wyoming and Montana and Idaho, Yellowstone specifically Minnesota, Wisconsin, or at the very least trying to burgeon the populations was you know, was this thing that people undertook, and the

same debate rolled out. It was like, okay, an al rights people be like, oh, we got to do something to help the wolves, okay, and then we here's our target, okay, and then they'd hit the target, all right, So can we take them off the list of in danger because damn look at all of them, like no, but it's you know, in this state only and not that. And I'm like, well, hold on, I'm confused because arguably in Monte Hannah, if I

start counting wolves just across the border, I'm already hitting my numbers. What are you talking about? And then the populations would grow and grow and grow, and the Feds would would have no choice, even though lawsuits would abound, of turning over the management of the wolves to the state, the you know, the individual state a'll be a quasi federal, but state and federal authorities and one of the ways that you manage things is through hunting, I

know. And then everyone lost their damn minds again, and so these weird deals were struck. We're like, all right, we're not gonna let you hunt to actually keep the numbers where we wanted them to be, because it's a nightmare with the activists. However, if something happens to you or your livestock or your hunting dog or any of that in you know where we put all these wolves that were now not going to control and there's gonna be this

gigantic increase in predation, We'll just compensate you. And that's that's what happened.

People figured out that literally they have a fund in Wisconsin and this dude went out and like, he's out there hunting in the woods, and all of a sudden, some wolves are like that dog looks delicious, and they get killed his dog, and he, I guess was aware of this, and so he went and saw compensation and they have literally I think it's between twenty five you get twenty five hundred and some soy you get up to ten thousand for other animals, but dogs you can get twenty five hundred bucks if

you're out hunting and your dog gets killed by a wolf. And so the guy just like hey, and then people are like, oh my gosh, this is horrible because again it has the word hunting attached to it, so everyone's having an aneurysm over that. So little, you know, a little some different each and every place. I remember first hearing about that ross and I'm gonna sound horrible here, but I'm I remember thinking, well, okay, if your dog's getting old, you know where I'm going with this.

Right, let's say you got yeah, and I know, beef with dogs. But if if it's like, hey, you know, he's got to distemper or the hips thing, that the right, you can go to the vet, or you you can go hunting. And I remember saying that on the radio. If I just said it again, people lost their crap man, which is partially a joke, and I actually heard a comedian do a similar joke, so it's not super original. But I don't know. I think that we both arrived at the logical conclusion there. So it's again it's

just crazy. And I point this out because we were doing all of the caucus stuff and you have these idiots like Joy Reid or like I don't understand why Iowa was not exactly like where I live and I'm like, because it's not, but it's part of it. Your foot isn't like your hand, but it is, you know, attached to a limb. So there's a

commonality, albeit for very different purposes. Unless you don't have arms, and you're like that dude who robbed the store with the pistol with his feet in Brazil, and all of you made armed robbery jokes, that is the rare exception. All right, let's get over to the Miss America's stuff. Michelle has been hanging on listening. We talk about nothing. Go ahead, Michelle, what's up? You are hilarious and I'll get that. I come to that conclusion to my question London, I have no proof. This is just

a question that I have. Did the ask the worst store, whoever? In whatever? The girl was very beautiful, She's done a great resume. So did they? Did they? Cause you're in that pageant to go recruit to recruit because the recruitments are down dramatically, as you know, be all you can be and uh, look she's a female too. Yeah, so there is that, but you know, a hard fast rule. Now do I think do I think that it's a recruit it's a it's a behind the

scenes recruitment effort by the military. Probably, well they're going to use it. Well, sure, they already are. They're like, hey, look what our Air Force officer did. And I'm fine with that because I have to judging by what this, uh, the other things that this woman has accomplished or is attempting to accomplish in the form of medical school. I feel like she's one of those people who's just like, all right, I did that, I'm gonna do this now. She'll probably go climb Everest in three

years. Right, some people are just driven like that. I mean, no, and I appreciate that. But listen, look, do you you don't think they could have recruited because the big question is did she have any pageantry in her past? That would be my question to Tierras and Toddlers. I don't know, I don't know, but I mean, I'm just asking you questions. I also get the impression that she was in the woods with her dog and a wolf came up, that the wolf would its family would

need compensation, so you know whatever. But all right, okay, all right, don't tell your dog what I said, right, you know, that's that's between us and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources? Who will cut you a check? Does it work for all dogs too? Like I understand if you have like a vslaw or you know, or a hound of some sort. You're like, I'm in the woods hunting and look, but like, could you you out there with your pomeranium and be like, oh my

gosh, the wolf got it? Why was your pomeranium run around the woodserts? You know, it's one foot tall. That's my hunting dog. Pay me my money? And I don't know the answer to that. I really don't. Oh man, okay, all right, so we got so perhaps they Miss America whoa hold on? Well look at that yet? And you know what? Now, I know it's a conspiracy because Siri tried to jump in and I'm sure that was the government. My phone's just sitting there and

say, ah, I'm gonna get involved in this. I don't know. I think what's hilarious though, is knowing what I know about you know, friends of mine, military folks, friends of mine that even though she's Miss America, she's an officer and is probably going to be a Harvard educated doctor, which I understand, Harvard whatever, but still like even somewhere right now is a marine or a member a soldier in the army or a semen in the navy, uh calling her chair Force. And I just that's what I

love about this that that that brotherhood there. And I know that because somebody just sent me an email that said chair Force in it, because that's what Hey, that's and that's for you. I was. I didn't serve in the military, but I just it's like, yeah, but she did all those other things. I mean, there's that. So I don't know. I know it's eight twenty. We're gonna take a break. Our phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four speaking of folks training in

the medical field. What the hell is this story? Even? I'll explain coming up. Hang on that show. After the show is on the iHeart Radio app search casey O'Day for of the podcasts Mommy iHeart Radio app. Ah, right, and welcome everybody. It is he twenty five. I don't understand this story, so somebody please help me out. This is this is in a grant immigrant Granville County up in Oxford. This story about a well. The story starts with a gentleman. His name's Kyle Caldwell, who worked

for the Baltimore Fire Departments. Been twenty eight years there, you know, is very He tries to do a good job of monitoring some very key potential health problems. The members of the firefighting community face specific cancers based on the work that they do, and so he heads in to get himself a sonogram as part of this this whole cancer journey and look forward and treatment all that, and he said that he went in to get the sonogram and like the

whole thing just fell off. And the reason it felt off, he says in the story, is like he obviously has had this done before, and the person doing it like didn't in his he's not a trained physician, but he's like, I don't think you know what you're doing. What are you doing? Have you ever used a sonogram or you ever use an ultrasound?

I should say, so she's performing it. And then four months later he gets a letter and he found out why the woman, according to the story, performed that procedure, had gotten the job under an assumed identity, and it was it's alleged not to be the first time. So in this statement released by the provider up there in Oxford, Janine Ellis was hired by Granville Health Systems as a sonographer using an assumed identity and they found it out and

and now they're like, ah, not really had any training. So how does that work? If I just so, I if I go into one of the hospitals here telling me do I get a job? Can I just be like I'm a doctor? And they're like, okay, cool, Uh yeah, we'll trust you because that's mildly terrifying, right, you know that reminds me of that reminds me of like the dumb drunk, you know kid at a at like a college party's like, I'm gonna change my major, be a guy to college. It's gonna be amazing, right, And that's

what it feels like. And you shouldn't been bolden that they you know, I'm glad it was this, but it's part of a cancer screening. It's so important that you dot the i's and cross the t's here. Man, That's all I'm saying. But yeah, and uh, there's there's a whole lot more to We'll tweet the story out at Casey on the radio and we'll be right back. Hang up. Thank you. Casey is on ninety four five WPTI on the Triad and one six one FM Talk in the Triangle.

All right, good morning, eight thirty six Dcoday Radio program. Yes, I understand the difference that they didn't just give her the job. She in the story she said that she was somebody else and then they probably checked that.

Yeah, I get that, But there's also a part of you like, like, if I want to go hand in, if I want to hand in the resume of let's go back to Miss America, right, And it's like, yeah, no, I went to Harvard Medical School, I was also Miss America, and I'm a second lieutenant in the Air Force. Right. All of those things are true combined with the name that's on that piece of paper, But I'm not that person. That's what's just so weird about that story. And I, you know, maybe not play fast and

loose in the world of healthcare. And I just it's crazy to me. And I'm glad that this dude's like, yeah, something's off here, because obviously this is something he's been dealing with. But it's also nice probably in his mind to be somewhat like vindicated. You know, you got to be kind of careful with those allegations. I don't think you were a real sonographer. But I was right. So that's what's crazy to me. And I made the joke about, oh yeah, you know, looks like a some

drunk frat boy. I don't be a guyn of coologist. By the way, talk to one first. See I'll tell you what roster's that. There's a guy there is and he's like a third generation and my son is going into the field there And I remember, and I knew this dude through like a group of people that I golf with, and I was I had a question, right if your grandfather, your father, you and now your kid are all in a long line and and God bless you doing you know,

good for you, four doctors in a row, the streaks unbroken. But like I don't I don't know how through my own lens of how those things normally work out, how that makes that, you know, handing down the

fan, because like here's what I mean by that. I grew up in a place where there were a lot of a lot of guys I went to school with who either weren't going to go to college or they were going to go to an agg program at one of the two years or four years, but ultimately they were going to come back and they just wanted to They wanted to ranch. And there's I got no beef with that nothing. Some of my best friends in high school are now the and and obviously my family members

and my siblings. But that also I was allowed or they were allowed to gain that interest as kids because they ought to go ranch with their dad. Do you understand what I'm saying? Like it was it was a it was a career choice, a lifestyle that was passed down, and it was sold on the basis of, hey, when I was in you know, when I was a kid in high school and now was like I really enjoyed doing this and I learned the tricks of the trade, and like that doesn't work

in that field. And that was kind of my awkward thought process question, so which I don't know, kind of didn't. I don't say it didn't go over well, but like I'm like, sorry, that's just how my brain works. Like how was your take take your kid to work day? I mean that had to be something different, right versus Hey, we're gonna go out, We're gonna brand some cattle today. I'm just I have these questions. Uh, maybe maybe I need more to think about, Like how

the hell this headline makes it out. FBI arrest transgender man who threatened to kill transphobes by suggesting ties to alt right extremism. And this is, by the way, this is not one of those headlines where Ross changed it so he could put the boone big beer in or insult a sports team. That's the headline. FBI arrests transgender man who threatened to kill transphobes suggest ties to

alt right extremism. So everything is now just alt right extremism. Remember the dude who plowed over all those people down in Texas And they're like, ah, it's extreme. Look at that. He mowed down a bunch of brown people. What a And You're like, I dude looks hispanic too, And they're like, no, now that's al right. Extremism. Wasn't one of the shoot wasn't one like a guy who was a mall shooter. Also, they're like, al right, extremists. This name is like immediately you know

it's Hispanic last name because it's the two names and all that. And look, I don't understand all the motivations right there. There are people also who operate in this headspace where they're they deny the own reality of their existence, like one of our favorite race trolls on Twitter, Sean King, who we have several names, but talcom x is the one that I think we use mostly. But how is a transgender man threatened to kill? Transphobe suggests alt

right extremism? All right, well, buckle in for this ride. Federal prosecutors charged an Oregon man who believes he is a woman from posting to a trans woman support group that he planned to go out in a blaze of glory. Elizabeth West, charged with making interstate threats, said he believed he was about to be fired and was tired of transphobic a holes. I quote, am too old to keep looking for jobs. I've had it up to hear

being bullied by transphobic transphobes. I have no alternative. I've been preparing for this moment for a long time. Then I'll be remembered. I have no family or friends, YadA YadA. All right, I know it still doesn't It doesn't make sense still, And don't worry. Even though I'm gonna read this, it still won't. Animosity on the West part to other races.

Here appears to be heavily related to gender ideology. West hatred. Okay, so why do you think Wes, this transgender woman who was going to go out and quote kill the transphobes, who also is not a fan of either black people or Jewish people. Do you think it's because of quote alt right

extremism. Well, the documents go on to point out that quote in the social media bio, West said identifies as a Nazi dominatrix from Hell who is tired of the blackening of America and Europe and ready to stand up to the quote black orcs and Jewish wizards. Hmmm. However, the animosity appears to be related in the in the case of black individuals, according to court documents, because West felt that when that black people were more likely to quote misgender.

So there's that. And also other immigrants because and this is again from the document, because West was upset that an illegal immigrant in Oregon's public health care plan got a free transgender surgery except and West would would not was not granted one. So it's a it's a play on they're taking all our jobs, except this one's they're taking all of our transgender surgeries. The whole thing

is nuts. But the FBI has been monitoring and the Affidavid refers to, I kid you not their commitment to h rooting out quote far right terror, white supremacy, and alt right extremism. So the transgender person from Oregon who decided that they were going to kill transphobes but also didn't like people of color is because of being misgendered and not getting surgery is alt right? All right, it's a hell of a read on, you know, the first day

back kind of morning. I'll tell you what. There's a whole lot of other stuff I don't know that I can read. In addition to a little bit of an armory, okay, a lot of an armory. Investigators said they found hand drawings roughly fifty of a transgender superhero wielding a sword. How did you know? Transgender superhero wielding a sword, stabbing, hanging, mutilating, and killing individuals who were then referred to with very racist names and descriptions.

But yeah, I don't know about all that, But you know, FBI, go and FBI. So what are you gonna do? A forty five raced agic for the weather channels? Here? Oh, man, dude, do do do? Why? Why are you doing this? Yeah? I'm just sometimes I read stuff and I'm like Ross changed something or somebody I mean Ross, but like somebody changed something that can't be the article that's supposed to accompany that headline. And I'm just every day I'm getting gas lit,

like for the weather. Like I was, I was hopeful. I thought everything was gonna be nice, and then I having a glance at the seven day and what do you Yeah, it's you know, basically, once it starts getting better, it starts getting colder again. We'll get colder here. I don't know how much warmer we're going to get today. See some rain showers come across the area. Might be a little sleet, especially triad and

west, but snows are reserved up for the mountains. I saw over foot up with some of the ski resorts over the last day and a half. That's where it'll stay. With the advisors in the warnings. The colder air, believe it or not, is southwest of US right now, pushing through northern Alabama. North Georgia's Icy Roadways reported uh some areas are already in the teens and the mid teens at that North Georgia right now up there Chattanooga,

it's seventeen, so I cold airs on the way, if anything. Temperatures will get to the low forties today and then fall back as we go through this evening and then overnight we'll wake up in those teens. A little rain mainly through mid afternoon today, and then the winds will pick up and tomorrow morning with that breeze, it's gonna feel cold and the cold weather will stick

Tomorrow mid upper thirties. That's it for daytime highs twenties at night, and then on Thursday more seasonable temperatures mostly Sunday mid upper forties, and then maybe little rain Thursday night early Friday, and then partly Sunday and fifty Friday afternoon. We'll see about any frozen precip Friday morning doesn't look like it right now,

but there'll be some precipe around with near freezing temperatures. And then after Friday, the next starctic air mass will come in teens in twenties Saturday morning, low to mid thirties for high Saturday, so this air mass might be a couple degrees colder as the high's gonna be positioned a little further east than this last one, so the overnight lows may be fifteen ish rather than eighteen or nineteen for Sunday morning, and then near forty in the afternoon, and

then a slow warm up, then a bigger warm up next week. We could be maybe in the sixties sometime next week, casey, towards the end of the week. So yeah, don't do that, no, okay, just handle your business and then let's get it over with, Okay, all right, sounds good. All right, man, we'll talk tomorrow. Oh I checked out that Miss America too, thank you? Yeah, yeah, right, Madison, yeah, iraculy. Hearing the description of everything she's accomplished,

I'd get exhausted. Yeah, I know, I can't. We're not worthy. All right, man, have a good one, and Jeff Bellinger joins us. Next hang on one sixm talk in the Triangles and news Talk PTI and the Triad. All right, good morning, everybody, welcome back. And yeah, Tuesday, Monday, so let's go ahead do this. Jeff Bellinger joining us, And Jeff, what's going on? Then we working case. Investor's optimism in the stock market is at a three year high,

According to a new fund manager survey from Bank of America. You wouldn't know that from the futures today. Now futures are down one hundred and thirty points, so we get ready to start the holiday shortened week. Boeing's problems have worsened, a source as China's aviation regulator is delaying the start of seven thirty seven Max deliveries as the aerospace company deals with safety issues. Drizzly, the alcohol delivery service that Uber has owned for the past three years, is going

away. Axios reports Uber has decided to close Drizzly and focus on its core Uber Eats business. Apple is prepared to remove a feature from its Series nine and Ultra two smart watches if a ban on US sales of those devices survives an appeal. The International Trade Commission sided with Massimo in a patent dispute over technology that monitors a wearer's blood oxygen level. Apple has decided to remove the monitoring capability to get around that man if the appeal is upheld and casey History

was made on Thursday night. Comcast says the NFL game between the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs was the most streamed live event in US history. The game was carried exclusively on the Peacock Network outside of the Miami and Kansas City markets. Casey, every and everyone is just hating on them too, Like even like Bill Burr and others were just apple playing and I understand frustration, but they're like, oh, this is a money grad, we won't do

it. And then mathematically apparently everyone did came up with their six dollars. That's right. Yeah, So I mean it's not going to go away. Now. We're in this thing, all right, Jeff, I really appreciate it. Sorry, you were snowed in this morning. That's why he's on the phone. So yeah, get getting out now. So if you get back to the studio tomorrow, you got to get the bills fans to come dig you out, sir. They're very good. That's good. There you

go. Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg News. Yeah, Ross, you guys are done digging, and you go down and maybe dig Jeff out so you can come. All right, Well, hold on, let me have a call here, Yes, story, what's up? I'm sorry? Hold on, Hey, So I just wanted to call and comment on the lady who thinks it's a conspiracy that somebody who's activity will competing and pageant. Yeah, I don't. We got to make something out of nothing. But people in the

military actually have hobbies and interests outside of being in the military. You know, we have Olympic athletes, we have people who are the third military services that can play in the NFL. When I was stationed in Wyoming, i met miss miss Colorado to the missile eer. So not only could you kick your butt, you have the ability to turn the keys and in the world. You know, it's just the military is just a a shapshot of what society is and we have a lot of amazing people on it. Do you

understand my amusement of watching some army dude call her chair force. I find that I love that part of the military culture. I love the back and forth man. That funny to me, absolutely absolutely. I mean, you know, there are the Army, you know, they just hate the fact that the air forces better people. Oh my, what Yeah, that's weird, that's so weird. Yeah, I mean, well, the marine's in the Air Force. But uh, you know the reason why people join air

forces because it's gort hidden up on their asset and have a choice. So when you're eating crayons and you're what you're aware of it? Right? Since both? Sorry? Man, I just to figure out, yeah, no, that was not a thing when I was in the Marines. I came out after after I switched over to the Air Force. I see, I see. No, I just I don't And I don't even know if she was one hundred percent on that. I just like second lieutenant Miss America and

going to Harvard Medical School. I'm just like, oh what else? Yeah, you're probably president someday. I don't know, man, I got no, I got no beef. But other than the facts, just from Colorado and the whole Greenies thing is somebody you said who lived in Wyoming? You know what I'm talking about. We didn't. We never like to see those people. Yeah, yep, all right here, yeah, all right,

have a good one. Twenty eight three thirty three zero Right, you did the math, right, Okay, all right, I know he's a look at that. Look at that. Ross started talking about math, and the Patriots fan hung up, not surprised. Well, there you go. That's the show and we'll try again tomorrow.
