Transcript

Speaker 1

I'm that guy. That's the anchor leg in the relay. We've seen it in the Olympics, US Olympic team four by one hundred, four by two hundred four by four hundred. And that last guy, maybe it's the ladies. Last anchor runner is just and they got the camera shot of the runner coming with the baton, and that last runner is like, come on, come on, come on. The rest of these runners have no idea the level of hurt I'm gonna put on them. Let's go, let's go, give it to me. I was just begging Jose give me

this show. Come on, give me, let's go. But I had to wait. I had to wait for the appointed moment. But I am ready for today's show. I am fired up. Let me. I'll get to why here in just a second, but let's start here because this is part of why Hebrews twelve twenty eight. Therefore, let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship with reverence and awe.

The first few words are it. Therefore, let us be grateful for receiving and then you can fill in the blank. You could pivot from there and put almost anything in there. Therefore, let us be grateful this week. Is there any chance that that could permeate longer than just Thursday? Could it maybe linger through Christmas? And then if it lingers through Christmas, could we therefore be grateful in January? In February, you see where I'm going here, right, So there's your verse

for the day. So we start right there. Now here's why I'm okay. First that right there, I'm grateful. I'm grateful that I was able to hold my beautiful granddaughter on Friday, on the day of her birth. Who gets me a little weepy big sissy here? No, I'm not a sissy. I'm just a big teddy bear. And then we found out a day later another grandchild is on the way, and wow. Then yesterday we got to unveil our Operation Thanksgiving Spirit of Christmas beneficiary for the year,

Humble House Ministries in Tallahassee, Panama City. Both of our communities have one. And I'm thinking through all of the projects we've done over the years, and some of you have given to all of them, some of you peel off, and it's like, and by that I mean you just you find something in that project that you just want to stay connected to and that becomes something that you are just that's your thing. And so if you are, like for example, connected at the hip with Orphan Shade, awesome,

don't stop. This may be for others in our audience. And so we'll tell you more about Humble House Ministries. The giving started yesterday, well the giving started the day before, but that was just me. Once again. I will never and I don't tell you I gave to say hey, look at me, pat me on the back. I tell you that I gave because my wife and I want you to understand. I never ask you to do something we are not willing to do. I don't say you

need to give to this, and I don't support it. No. I support every single project that we have ever done in the history of this show, going back twenty two years everyone. And so we'll talk more about that. We've got an amazing gift idea coming in studio today in the third hour. It's really one of the most important, powerful, incredible gifts. We talk about it every year. We're going to do it again today and I can't wait for everything in between. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott

on Seck. Can you see over there in Studio one A. He will be here tomorrow with Grant. Grant is the dh Tomorrow. We'll be doing what's the Blessing tomorrow. I said, hey, you want to do it, because if not, I'll do it today. He said, nah, I got you. It's a Wednesday thing. We don't do what's the Beef. I've told you we have very few what's the beefs left for the year. But on Thanksgiving there is no way I'm doing what's the beef on Thanksgiving week? That's just not happening.

First of all, beef turkey no. Secondly, the world. Could we stay in the right spirit by complaining? I recognize that what's the beef is about getting that out of your system so that it doesn't pile up into other things, and other things don't pile onto it. I get it. There's a therapeutic component to what's the Beef? But I think that it's appropriate to just push back and say what are you thankful for? And what's interesting is on occasion I have to prod you, and I don't want

that to be the case tomorrow. Here's why there's a spiritual principle connected to speaking things out loud. The Bible talks about the power of the tongue. It's why you need to be very, very guarded in the things that you say to your children, to your spouse, your co workers, your employees, your employeer. You need to guard what comes out of your mouth. There's some things Bible says, take

every thought captive, make it obedient to Christ. There's some things you think as a husband or a wife, or as just as a person. They don't need to be said. Gag itt, you know, totally unsolicited here, but I'm on a role. This is one of the biggest marital mistakes made, relationship mistakes made. The idea of open transparent communication look ten four. But how often has a fight started with a look? You looked and then the other person said what? No, no, no,

what was that look for? First of all, if you're the person that got the look, leave it be, because you don't need to go fishing for a fight. We're human. We have thoughts sometimes that we shouldn't. But the Bible says to take that thought captive, run it through the filter of Christ. And so maybe don't ask if they want to share fine. Hopefully they prayed about it and they're speaking something that is encouraging or is corrective or explanatory.

That is helpful. But sometimes you don't have to say everything you're thinking. Sometimes you can just say, you know what, it's not a kind I had a thought. It wasn't kind. I need to just sweetheart, nothing, it really was nothing. And then move on and everybody move on. Let him move on, let her move on, and let him keep it quiet, let her keep it quiet. Now, no, I want to know what you were thinking. Stop, it's unbiblical. Sorry, hold on. You can see I'm just on my game today.

It's twenty sixth of November seventeen seventy eight. James Cook, Captain discovers Maui in the Hawaii Islands. Could you imagine he's like, oh, look at this. Probably turned to the man and went Maui because he was so overjoyed. Okay, maybe he didn't do that. Seventeen eighty nine. In George Washington proclaims this day National Day of Thanksgiving. Seventeen ninety one, George Washington holds the first Cabinet meeting. They put big cabinets up in the kitchen and Okay, I'm just kidding.

Eighteen sixty three, President Abraham Lincoln begins the tradition of the annual Thanksgiving Day and in nineteen forty two Casablanca Casablanca Humphrey Bogart Ingrid Bergmann. Still, I'm trying to get my wife to watch this movie with me. If you've never watched Casablanca, it is one of the best movies you will ever watch. No gratuitous violence, no bad language, a good movie, and it has Nazis in it. Come on, come on, seventeen past the hour. You played it for her,

you can play it for me. Play it Sham Morning Friends, It's The Morning Show with Preston's got great to be with you. Jose is there. I am here, and this is just I have spent the last few hours, meaning yesterday afternoon forward, just thinking on this story, trying to figure out what's the angle here. This is one of the craziest stories that I've run across in the business world. Macy's, of course, is on the tip of everybody's tongue because well not everybody, but a lot of people's because of

the Thanksgiving Day parade. Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade it's an annual thing. We talked about in the history segment back a few days ago. Macy's is not going to release its full third quarter earnings report this week as it had planned to. It's gonna wait until December. Here's why. They uncovered after an investigation internally in the business of the company that a single employee with responsibility for small package delivery expense accounting. So that's their job. I mean,

it's a big company. Your job is to track delivery expenses. What is Macy's spending to deliver stuff? That's your job, and with the size of Macy's, I'm quite certain that a singular job like that is all that one person might handle. That person intentionally, they say, made erroneous accounting entries to hide approximately one hundred and thirty two to one hundred and fifty four million dollars of cumulative delivery expenses from the fourth quarter of twenty twenty one through

the fiscal quarter ending November two, twenty twenty four. The employees no longer with the company, no kidding. It's caused Macy's to delay its third quarter report and earnings call until December eleventh. But here's the question. I cannot get an answer to in my brain. And perhaps and I read a chain of comments from people that read this story, and and someone put the question out there that I had in my mind, what would be the motivation to

do this intentional? Intentionally? Why? Why would someone do this? Was Macy's incentivizing accountants to hide expenses? Underneath? Someone wrote, someone higher up had the employee do it for reporting reasons. Then the employee fell on the sword. I don't I'm not seeing that. Here's why. What unless you're skimming somewhere, where's the win if if you've got these expenses but actual expenses are are what's being under reported in the sense that you're reporting it at this level, but it's

really a lot less than that you're skimming. You've padded expense reports on whatever. Okay, that starts to make sense. This doesn't make sense to me. Why why was somebody doing this? So the real dollar figure is infinitely higher than the reported dollar figure.

Speaker 2

So.

Speaker 1

If someone somehow making money along the way on this, that's not how you would do it. So the story was just fascinating to me. First because of the anomaly factor. Who does this? How does one employee hide roughly one hundred and fifty give or take million dollars in expenses over three years. Good night, But they caught it, and so now they're redoing their books and they're gonna have to come up with actual figures. Macy's is okay. They're one of the few big chain department stores that appear

to be positioned to somewhat survive. I've been impressed with some of the maneuvering Macy's is done in the marketplace. But still fascinating story twenty eight past the hour, We're gonna come back with the big stories in the press box on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Sorry, I don't know what's going on with the Fox News feed at the bottom. I don't know if they've given everybody the doing the one minute news the week off and

they've got the band playing. I have no clue, but we'll listen ahead, and if it's not gonna be news next hour, we're gonna ditch it. We'll just eject it out of the system and just yeah whatever, But we're gonna try and figure out what's going on out there. You don't know. We heard it yesterday and it was like, what is this and thought, Okay, surely this is something that's going to be fixed, except it hasn't been fixed.

And so yeah, anyway, let me get to the big stories in the press box, and I'm gonna just lay them out. We won't go deep diving here. President elect Trump is planning an executive order. According to reports in the British daily The Times, he is planning an executive order to remove transgenders from the military. They're believed to be fifteen thousand active service personnel who are transgender. That is horrifying because that's fifteen thousand mentally ill people that

are in our military. Now, I'm sorry, I don't mean to offend. The fact of the matter is we are compromised with people that are not aware that their biological gender. Is this or that. Second story related as I predicted, because it's a Biden appointee. US District Judge s Cato Cruz deny emotion filed by twelve plaintiffs against the Mountain West Conference that would have rendered Blair Fleming a dude, ineligible to compete in the women's volleyball tournament. So as

of now, she's good to go. The Mountain West is overjoyed, the Mountain West Conference, the NCAA. They're cowards now. I personally think that it's it's kind of time for all sports to just stop. We're not playing until this has stopped all sports. This is wrong for women's athletics, and I think the guys' sports ought to stop playing. Mark my words. If the football basketball teams, the men's football basketball teams stop playing, ESPN no longer had anything to air.

The network's had nothing to put on on weekends, you'd get the attention. It's a horrible ruling. ESPN cowards. The volleyball player has not spoken about her identity. San Jose State has not commented on her identity due to federal privacy laws. ESPN's not naming the player. Whatever the other headlines across the country. A judge reacts, rejects you request to sideline college volleyball player on ground she's transgender. No, he is transgender, She's not. He is in reality? What

do you mean she's transgender? Does that mean she's a dude? Idiots? No, really, idiots, are you kidding me? And then there's this from the Low Hanging fruit Tree. Special Counsel Jack Smith drops the Trump election interference case on the Department's interpretation of the Constitution. The government moves for dismissal without prejudice of the superseding indictment. Now, if I were the judge, I would have said, who said that? Who's said? I know you didn't say that

because you weren't legally appointed. So I didn't hear you. Who said that? Who's sending these papers? Who's doing this? I know it's not you, sir, because you have no legal standing. You weren't appointed. According to the laws of the United States of America. You don't have standing in this court. In fact, what are you doing here? You just wanting to watch a court proceeding. You kind of you're getting ready for a bar exam somewhere, huh. I

want to see how the court actually works. Well, that's good luck to you, sir. Forty one minutes after the Army This Morning Show with President Scott, I'd like to suggest a moment of silence for MSNBC. Thank you. These are tough at times at MSNBC. Ever since the election, they have been shedding viewers like my old dog Scooby shed her fur. It They're everywhere gone and inside MSNBC they're piling on. For example, contributor Jennifer Ruben took on

colleagues Joe Scarborough and Mika Brazinski. You might remember they had a meeting with Donald Trump after basically calling him Satan incarnate for the last however, many years eight, they tucked their tail between their legs and tried to brok her some kind of peace agreement, Ruben quoting, what were they thinking? Who do they think their audience was? I mean she said this out loud. Well, perhaps this wasn't

about their audience. Perhaps this was about them trying to defend themselves or avoid retribution that they thought was coming their way. But really, these are rich, famous people. What have they got to worry about? It was just an appalling example of how eager so many elites are to fall in line to curry favor, to deflect attention, to deflect any kind of incoming criticism that might come their way from the white So they're getting hammered for it.

They're hemorrhaging their audience. And this, of course only exacerbates the reason and the problem why MSNBC and its other cable networks are being spun off. That is, cable television is dying. Most of you probably haven't watched MSNBC since the election either, and not understanding your audience and continuing to serve up the same chewed over talking points with the same panels, essentially same program day after day after day, hour after hour is no longer working. I'm gonna pause

there because this is dripping with irony. She just described the programming content of most cable news networks for the last twenty five years, and she doesn't see it. She doesn't get it. So we now come to the segue story. Here you ready and wait on me here. Joe Rogan, easily the most popular podcaster out there, made a plead to Elon Musk to buy MSNBC since it's basically apparently on the market. He said, and I quote, if you

buy MSNBC, I would like Rachel Madow's job. I'll wear the same outfitting, glasses, i will tell the same lies. Can I just pause for a second. Musk could buy this with play money, right he could? Could you imagine the immediate impact on the bottom line at MSNBC with viewers if he were to buy it and put Joe Rogan on. Get Joe Rogan on television? Joe'd have to clean up his act a little bit. He drops a

lot of profanities in the course of his show. But if you said to Rogan Joe seven o'clock, eight o'clock Monday through Friday, you go as long as you want. You can go forty five minutes, you can go two and a half hours. That's outside the box thinking which would work the mass resignations that would come if Elon Musk bought MSNBC. Yeah, Jose's offering a chef's kiss right now. It's that'd be low soo uh oh man. Forty seven past the hour. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

It's The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Feverishly working hard preparing the twelve days of Preston shows. Do not miss those shows. Recap of the year twenty twenty four and for the December show, special interviews that you did not hear on The Morning Show with Preston Scott exclusive content. Sound like that movie voice guy, don't I in a world? That's all you have to say in a world? And

then fill in the gap from there. Anyway, Adam Schiff says, the entire Democrat Party bears the blame of the Harris loss. Myself included oh Adam, oh Adam, You're such a good man. Mmmmmm. Now some of his comments are hilarious. He was on Meet the Press over the weekend and the host Kristen Welker played a clip of him predicting Harris will overwhelmingly win. That didn't age very well. I credit her for playing it. He's like, look, we yeah. I don't even want to

go into the excuses. There are other things I want to talk about. I've had enough fun at their expense for the day. I don't want to pile on. Instead, let's talk about our project for the Mad Radio Network. We introduced you yesterday to Humble House Humble House Ministries, and the website is Humble Housemenistries dot org. Right there on the homepage, it says right there, donate Panama City, donate Tallahassee. So I'm asking you to consider supporting them.

They help women, biological women, women only recover from addiction. They offer services to help them. They also offer transitional housing for those that need housing, for example, recently released former jail inmates prisoners. If you will, we'll call them returning citizens because it's one of the most important things they need. This is a huge program and I want to throw a little support behind him, not just awareness.

I'm asking you to give. Some of you own a business and you could write a check for ten grand tomorrow and you wouldn't blink. And there's a tax write off for you others A thousand, others, one hundred others. Ten bucks is a sacrifice for you. Do what you can and I would appreciate it, and they certainly would. That's our project for Operation Thanksgiving and Spirit of Christmas Humble Houseministries dot org. And I thank you very much. By passed the hour seven in the Eastern time zone,

six in the Central Hello, Illuminatas, how are you? He's ose? I'm Preston. It is The Morning Show with Preston Scott Show fifty two eighty one, Tuesday November twenty sixth, two days away from Thanksgiving. Are you thawing your bird? Oh? In the name of all things holy, do not drop any part of a frozen turkey into a deep friar. Surely you've seen the video clips. That is an explosion

of biblical proportions. So if you're deep frying, I don't deep fry I'm sure it's awesome, crispy outside, tender inside. I'm sure it's awesome. But I just that's just not my speed. But if you do that, good on you. You're into the Cajun turkey. Good on you. Just do not put any part of a turkey that's frozen into a deep prior. You will rue that decision the moment the bird hits the water, just saying, or hits the oil. All right, Yesterday we talked at length about illegal immigration

and the problems it is causing. I want to highlight the people that are dead, the people that have been raped and injured, the businesses that have been destroyed. Oh but Preston, there's so many good and decent people that are just trying to make a living. Yeah, what's your point now, I'm not trying to be insensitive. There's a way to work in this country legally as a migrant.

We have documented and did so again yesterday. How Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and Alejandro Mayorcis, Homeland Security Director, have violated the law to the point I think they should be named in lawsuits. I want to add to the reasons. Another illegal alien charged with raping a woman

who was walking on a popular running trail. Thirty one year old Danis am baathtol Navaret Romero, illegal immigrant from Honduras, charges of abduction with an intent to defile and rape for sexually assaulting a woman at a public park in fair Fact County, Virginia. It happened on the well traveled Washington and Old Dominion Trail about nine o'clock a week ago yesterday, Chief of Police, I'm incredibly saddened in outrage that a crime like this could happen here in the

town of Herdingdon. What is disturbing is the number of times this man has been arrested and released. He has continued to offend, and his behavior is escalated to rape in a very public area in our town. You see, this man who's in our country illegally, had a history of sexual assaults in the area stretching back to twenty twenty two. Wait, he's been in this country for how long illegally? He had been arrested and he's not been deported excuse me, or just thrown in prison for you know,

I don't know until we deport him. He previously choked a Herndon police officer in June. The cop was responding in twenty twenty two to a groping incident see the escalation. He got away with it. Why did he get away with it? Because the Fairfax County Commonwealth Attorney, Steve Descano, a Democrat, downgraded the charge to simple assault, a misdemeanor. So you have this, this nexus of illegal immigrants harming people in this country. Shouldn't be here. We're allowed to

be here, allowed to stay here. And then, when caught committing crimes, a democrat, illiberal, leftist district attorney decides to say, all this poor man, will not give him a record that would list of felony, will give him a misdemeanor. See. All of this, in my mind, is actionable. Whether it is or isn't legally, I don't know, but I'd give it a shot. I'd sue the district attorney. I'd sue the county because the county is a sanctuary county, Fairfax

County is. I'd sue the county commissioners. I'd sue every elected official. This is yet another example Lake and Riley, the young girls that are unnamed because they're miners, that have been raped and attacked. And I think it was better than five hundred thousand criminals with known records have been flown into the country at taxpayer expense by Joe and Kamala. This should outrage you. Eleven passed the hour I'm late this morning show with Preston Skoylewitzman. I just

wanted to follow up a little bit. We'll get back to the stories big stories in the press box at bottom of the hour. Sala News are going to join us on the phone about the developments with Donald Trump. Weighing in on the special elections that will be taking place next year early in the year. I think the primaries will be in January for the seats being vacated by Matt Gates and Michael Waltz, and I believe the special election is set for April first. What a day, huh,

April Fool's Day. So yeah, we will talk with sal about that. He's he's in the know, so we'll get his thoughts on it. But I wanted to just add a little wrinkle to this, and then I've got another update on another story. San Jose State University has has clinched a playoff spot because they got six forfeits in the course of the season six times other schools said we're not playing you because you have a man playing. Now.

I just want to put some context to this. When I was in high school, I was one of the basketball players recruited by the volleyball coach to play against the girls volleyball team in practice so they could practice against guys who hit harder. But we were told, hey, don't kill it, just hit a little harder than we do, so we can practice digging and bumping and you know, setting off of different you know, situations. And so I

was one of those guys. I was. I was an outside hitter because I was tall, and I could swing, and I could jump good enough to make a difference. But here's something else that you probably don't think about with this story. The net is lower in women's volleyball. So a male volleyball player that is just average against men is dominating against women because of the net height. You can take all the hormone blockers in the world.

And that's what's starting to happen. People are waking up to the fact that we told the story of a professional golfer that said, I'm done competing because it's not fair. I hit the ball Further, it doesn't matter how many shots I get and how many hormones I take. It doesn't matter. I have a biological physiological advantage. And you know what, as much as I think that guy needs

some help, I applaud his integrity as a sportsman. If he chooses to live his life like Bruce Jenner as a woman, it's still just that story, just Bruce Jenner as his kids call him dad, but he's Caitlyn. My brain hurts thinking about that. Really, I feel like I'm gonna pull a muscle in my brain thinking about that. But here's the thing. This guy gives that volleyball team an unfair advantage. Is it enough that they could win

a national title? Probably not, because the quality of the players around him is not equal to say a Nebraska or a Penn State or any of the other big programs across the country. But it's good enough to win and enter the postseason tournament. And so we're going to have We've got a man playing against women in the NCAA tournament. And that's just wrong. If only there was

enough courage. This is absurd, by the way, in the court case that we've talked about, where the court the judge said no, they spent one day dealing with pronouns. One entire day in court dealing with the proper pronouns that they were going to use to describe the player.

They thought about that OMG seventeen passed on I'm late again, Shock, and now we like to keep our finger on the pulse of what's going on in the workworld because we're here to help a lot of You have kids, high school, college, getting ready for the workforce, and they're going to fail

miserably happy Thanksgiving. The reason why so many are going to fail is that, according to a survey of over one thousand managers in different industries across the country that was done by Intelligent dot Com, eighty one percent of them believe recent college graduates are woefully unprepared for the professional business world. And here's a short list of what's lacking. It can be defined with one term working etiquette, how to work. This is a remarkable indictment on the public

school system and on parenting. Eighty one percent of the business leaders believe that college graduates aren't remotely prepared to work. They listed more specifics underneath that, For example, email etiquette. There's a commercial out there right now that it's actually pretty funny, and it's extolling the virtues of AI professional writing.

For example, this lackey is in the very big workplace, busy, and he's just kind of and back and he's clearly there because he's the creative kind, but he's not into the protocols and the etiquettes. And so he's writing a note, Hey bro, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. And then he hits his AI button that says professional and it converts all of it to dear mister so and so, you know, and it's and and and so. As he's writing this thing, he comes across his envelope

and he's sealing it. So he licks the back of the envelope and he goes, wow, like that tastes really good and he wants to try it again. He's that guy, He's that weird guy. And so the the email gets to the boss and the boss is looking at like, Hendrix, you wrote this, you know, because it's clearly not him, it's AI, but it it's it's passed along as is right. Managers are out there saying we don't have people that know how to handle email properly, that know how to

respond to email professionally. Phone etiquette. I can't tell you how many times I call businesses and I don't go. I don't hear good morning, thank you for calling Biffs? I get hello? Is this biff Co? Yeah? What do you need? I don't need anything. Click. That's how that goes basic phone etiquette lost, public speaking etiquette. You know

those simple skills, soft skills. There are people graduating from college that, because of social media and their heads buried in their phones, if someone looks them in the eye, they're intimidated. No, really, the crap is scared out of them because they don't know how to make eye contact with people. They don't know that that's what you do when you're with a peer, you're with an employer, you're

with a manager, you're with a potential client. You're listening to them, you're looking them in the eye, you're making contact with them. Sure, you might make a note here or there, but you're looking at them, you're taking it in. They don't know how to do that. They don't know how to talk and look at somebody. They just stare. If they do that at all, because the idea of talking and looking at somebody that eye contact interrupts their

mind processes. Twenty eight passed the hour, So I'm just saying, mom's, dads, teachers, Hello, Sorry about the jazz interlude there. We're trying to figure out what's going on. I've sent notes to what I can send to Fox News saying why am I getting chick Corea and the Trio? I mean, what's up with that? Is always something? Little Rosanna Rosanna Dana used to say,

It's always a something anyway. The big stories in the press box Trump planning in an executive order to remove transgenders from the military about about fifteen thousand active service personnel or transgender. Now to all of you, and here's the pushback. It's already happening. What is he thinking We're already having trouble. Yeah, you think he might have a reason why you're not reaching your recruiting goals because your military has gone woke and deep down for the most part,

patriots want no part of that. They just don't. I have a really strong feeling, especially based on the vote that we just had in November with young males. The second you get this crap cleaned out. If Pete Hegseith is the defense the head of the Defense department, he will see a boost of recruiting immediately if they get rid of the transgenders. And I'm sorry that sounds so harsh, but they should never have been allowed in the military. It is mental illness. Recruiting will jump up at a

time when recruiting is down. He's just yeah. Sometimes it's a biblical principle of pruning. Begets growth. Sometimes you gotta cut back. Look, I've got I've got a rose garden in my backyard. It is an homage to my mom. My mom used to grow roses, and so my wife and I love fragrant roses, and so we grow roses. Any rose bush that's in our backyard is fragrant. It smells absolutely incredible when they're blooming. But one thing you learn about roses. If you don't prune back the dead stuff,

the disease stuff, you kill the bush. We're killing our military. And the other thing you learn is that by properly pruning, you create growth. That's a rule of pruning. That's a rule of nature. And God reveals himself of nature, and so the military. If Trump goes through with this, and he does an executive order saying I'm sorry, you cannot serve as transgender in our military. First he'll get sued. That's okay, it's mental it's mental illness. It just is.

And Special Counsel Jack Smith drops the Trump election interference case. I guess it spares him the indignity of being told again by another judge you don't have standing here, because once that argument's made, it's settled. He doesn't. He never had standing. He was appointed illegally against US law, against the US Constitution. He never should have been able to argue. Forty minutes past the hour. Saluso Joint's next from Consumers

Defense on The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Welcome to The Morning Show with Preston Scott Tuesday on the Morning Show, and I am pleased to have with me sal Nouzo of Consumers Defense. Good morning, my friend. How are you?

Speaker 2

Good morning? Happy Thanksgiving week to you, my friend.

Speaker 1

You sent me the text yesterday afternoon said wow, look at what's happening. And I was like, I don't know what's happening. So you broke the news to me that Donald Trump was weighing in on the special elections, the races to replace members of Congress that he had appointed or had suggested for certain offices. We know Matt Gates is no longer in the mix in District one, but in District six you got Michael Waltz. So update us, where are we?

Speaker 2

Sure? Well? Late last week, President Trump an elect Trump, however you call it, endorsed Randy Fine, who just won election to the State Senate from the state House down in the Atlantic Coast area, in the Bombard area for the Mike Waltz. See. So Senator elect Fine immediately decided to jump right in, and it does look like he will be a shoe in for that one. I don't want to speak too soon, but so that happened. I

believe it was Saturday or Sunday. He's incredibly excited and a lot of the support is already coming from across the state for his run there. And then in addition, just yesterday, which it's interesting because the resigned to run rule would have kind of come into effect at the

end of yesterday. President Trump also endorsed CFO Jimmy Petronis for the CD one race, which is being vacated by Matt Gates, and so in that election, you already had a handful of Republicans who had announced that they were going to file to run for it. So they're in the predicament where the or were in the predicament where they would have had to have made a decision by the end of yesterday whether to resign their existing seats or back CFO Patronas for that seat.

Speaker 1

What do you expect's going to happen? First, let's talk about State Senator Randy Fine, newly minted state senator. What are your thoughts on him as opposed to, say, a former House Speaker Paul Renner.

Speaker 2

Yeah, I was actually intrigued by that dynamic as well. I know that speaker or former Speaker Paul Renner is really a great public servant. He is interested in being active in public service, and given where the seat was, I thought he might have considered making a run at it. He's also a dad with a husband, and a dad with two young kids, and so there's a kind of an internal dialogue that goes on, and I don't know or have any insights into whether that was a factor

in making the decision. And there's still time to decide for him. Because he doesn't have an office to resign, so that one is there may be more to come. But with the President Trump endorsement, I think that carries a ton of weight, especially in that district for Senator elect five.

Speaker 1

CFO Patronas is wildly popular in that part of Florida in particular. I mean he's pretty handily won the CFO race as well, but in that district he's very very popular. Does that pretty much clear the field?

Speaker 2

One would have thought, And one of the more prominent names, State Representative Michelle Salzman, did decide to forego her run for the district, and she immediately backed off and supported and endorsed CFO Patrreys. However, another freshman Rep about to be a sophomore Rep. Doctor Joel Rudman, from that area, he had announced, but he had also put on Twitter

that he was not backing out. He was still going to mount his challenge to CFO Patronas, And so there may well be a Republican primary for that rate.

Speaker 1

And quickly and closing the CFO position. What happens now to that job?

Speaker 2

And that's another dynamic because there are two years left on CFO Patrons's term. So Governor DeSantis will appoint somebody for that seat for the remainder of the term, and then that individual will have to make a decision. There's talk about folks like Joe Gruder's maybe Senator Blady Wongolia, and there could be a dark horse out there. These special elections for the congressional seats will be April one, but the governor can appoint the CFO at any point that.

Speaker 1

He choose primaries for both those races in January though right.

Speaker 2

Yes, yes, sir, they are primaries in January, and then the general for it would be April one, So primaries for both of those seats will likely decide who wins the race. They're both heavily Republican District South.

Speaker 1

Thanks very much for the update. I appreciate you weighing in.

Speaker 2

Always a pleasure, my friends.

Speaker 1

Thank you, Sir, Salnuzo with Consumers Defense, my guests, forty seven minutes past the hour, Scent evidence K nine cannot wait. Paul Coley back with me in just a little while, and this could save a life and it's one of the most thoughtful smart gifts on the planet. Explain all

of it in just a few minutes. As you know, it is giving season here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott, and I had a lot of people send me different suggestions, and I appreciate that, but I just as I've shared previously, I just really I think through and pray through where we're going to push. And sometimes the push is as much for awareness as it is

financial to help a program, an organization and ministry. And in this case, I've chosen Humble House Ministries and I'll tell you why, because they have locations in Tallahassee and Panama City. They help a part of the population that quite frankly, gets ignored a lot. They focus on women that have addictions, and they focus on women returning from jail or prison. They provide recovery and help. They provide transitional housing, two separate missions, all underneath the same umbrella,

and in both of our main broadcast cities. And so we started the program yesterday, and I'm asking you to give. If you go to the website Humblehousemanistries dot org, you'll find a way to donate to Panama City. If you're a listener in Panama City and you feel led to do that, and if you're a listener in the Tallahassei community. And if you're a listener outside of our region and you just love the idea of helping women wherever get things back on track, and this is a program that

helps them do that. I have personally witnessed the impact of this program in women's lives. I've seen it, and so I can vouch for effectiveness. I can vouch for efficiency because I just know how they operate. And so what I'm asking you to do is give what you can when you can between now and the eighteenth of December. Maybe it's twenty five bucks, maybe it's ten, Maybe it's a monthly commitment to support what they're doing. Maybe this just really hits you and this is something you want

to be part of that would be amazing. And that's one of the things we've learned over the years. You know, we've been doing projects of one form or another for twenty some odd years, and so as a result, we've learned that there are some projects that we connect to that people have an affinity for and they just feel kind of a kindred spirit to it and they connect with it. Other times it's just it's I want to give and support this this particular initiative, and I'm going

to move on to other things whatever. This might be your thing, this might not. But here's what I know. I know as a matter of fact that there are people listening right now. And your business is your profession, what you do. You have been blessed, and I'm sharing an opportunity to give some of that and share some of that, and you happen to get a little tax right off on top of it. That's awesome. In the comments for tallahassee right WFLA, and the dedication for Panama City,

right WFLA. It'll help them track the giving and just go to Humblehouseministries dot org and give what you can. All right, we're coming to our number three. Can't wait to have this conversation. We do it every year about this time. All right, Good morning, five past the hour. Welcome ruminators, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, males and females only. Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Great to be with you. Jose's over there, mundane attire

as always you can. You'd never notice him in a room. I bet you wear You wear stuff like that at funerals, don't you? You wear the flowered printed shirts from Hawaii at funerals. Yep, oh yeah, I dress like Florida Man every day, no matter what we forgive him. But anyway, great to be with you. It's Tuesday, it's Thanksgiving week, and it's it's shopping season, and I know this sounds a little strange, but what we're going to talk about this half hour is maybe one of the most important

gifts you'll ever give to somebody. And joining me is Paul Coley. Longtime listeners of the program, Paul's background or might remember the website sent Evidence sent C S C E N T Evidence K nine, the letter K the number nine dot com. Paul, good to see again. How are you doing great? Thanks for having us again? Absolutely and explain the US here. Who's with us?

Speaker 3

I actually have Ryan Nietto. He's a young man that's been working with me the entire time. He's attended FSU. He just graduated in August and he's full time with us, and I think the dogs he's helped train. At this point in his life, he's twenty two, as about one hundred and eighty people, and we want to give a shout out to his grandpa Don Nietto. He's an avid President Scott fan. He's listening out of Shallow mor this morning.

Speaker 1

Say come on, don all right, so tell me. Let's let's tell a secret about Grandpa. No, I'm just kidding. Okay, let me just put you on the spot here for a second. Ryan, what attracted you to this work?

Speaker 4

Well, I heard it from a very close friend of mine, and Paul was a family friend of his, and he knew I needed a job, and I love dogs. I've never worked with him before, but I knew this was a chance to do something good and I took it and I've been running with it for three years now.

Speaker 1

You just graduated your degrees in criminology, Yes, sir, Did this work impact you your major? What you decided to focus on?

Speaker 4

No, sir, I just started with business and then I've moved over to criminology. I just was interested in it and then I started this job and it kind of blended together, so I think it worked out perfect.

Speaker 1

Paul, tell everybody that may not know sent Evidence K nine. What is it.

Speaker 3

Well, it's a company that we developed to help you protect your loved ones in case they've been missing or wandering. We have a kit that you can pre collect and store that information. You mitigate the risk by what we're giving you. We actually trained law enforcement on how to respond better to missing persons cases, and we sell and donate to agencies that need these wonderful, floppy eared forensic tools we have.

Speaker 1

I want to focus on what exactly you're talking about. A kit that is about five by five by five. I mean, folks, this is a box. And in this box I bought several of these kits over the years from my family members for my grandchildren in particular, and those of you listening know I have a brand new granddaughter and one of these kits is already there with her mom. Because these kits allow trained dogs to find people faster. Why well, if.

Speaker 3

You've ever seen Pigpen from Charlie Brown, right, that's the way our odor acts. So, sitting in here with you today, mine and Ryan's oder is going to be on everything in this room, same thing at home, So your grandbaby, the daughters, all of those odors are going to be

on anything that's around that baby. This kit allows us to pre collect that scent and store it uncontaminated, so it sty it's pristine for the handler and the dog, and when that dog gets a pristine odor away, they go you know, you see the tracking on television ours is completely different than that. They're trained to take a targeted odor of an individual entrail to that source.

Speaker 1

In this case, when you say that that odor is isolated, we're talking about to the point where you know, Mom's putting away clothes and all of a sudden, her scent now is on that clothing item. So a child goes missing, whether it's an abduction, whether it's an autistic child that just wanders off, or just a toddler that just goes wandering off in a moment you turn your head. This the difference this makes is is it a difference of time, Paul.

Speaker 3

Time and efficiency? These dogs get really locked in on this scent, so they just dismiss everything else and a way they.

Speaker 1

We're going to talk more about this, and I'm going to make sure that you know how to get these kits. Ten past the hour, More to come on The Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 5

The Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1

Morning Show with Preston Scott, Paul Coley with me from Scent Evidence Kanine dot Com and I want to give you a chance to share. You know, you were talking about Ryan's dogs finding people. How does that process usually work where whether it's someone that has dementia, Alzheimer's and goes wandering off. Because one of the things I've noticed on your website, Paul, is the number of elderly people that are being recovered with these kits is kind of my blowing.

Speaker 3

It is every community deals with this, but every community didn't have the tools to do it efficiently and bring people home. We had a case last night. Me and my wife was sitting on the couch praying at the end of the night and phone rings and it's a handler from New York who was actually in He lives in North Carolina.

Speaker 1

Now.

Speaker 3

He was on ground nine to eleven, so he moved to North Carolina. He has one of our dogs. A sixteen year old suicidal young girl leaves from our caretaker going to commit suicide. He and honey, she had a kit. He and Honey took the kit. A mile and a half later, everybody said she went to the left, the dog goes to the right, and a mile and a half later, the dog sitting at her feet and she's loving on that dog.

Speaker 4

Wow.

Speaker 3

Last night.

Speaker 1

The process is you collect these sens and by doing that, you're just basically putting, you know, gloves on and you're wiping under the armpit of somebody right right, You're storing that scent. It lasts how long?

Speaker 3

Over ten years? We just tested one that we had on the shelf for eleven.

Speaker 1

Years, so we've got a ten year shelf life minimum. And then somebody goes missing.

Speaker 3

What happens they call in one of these teams. Here in Tallahassee you have the Sheriff's Office has one of our dogs now and TPDS Special Victim Units has one. If you're in the Panama City area, we just got through doing a seminar down there last week. So the Panama City PDE and the Bay County Sheriff's Office are all trained to utilize these, and Bay County has had quite a few fines, as well as Tallahassee PD and

Leon County. But you hand that to them, and there's a flash drive in there that you fill out prior to because you can imagine one of your grandkids being missing. You're not gonna think, well, I'm dealing with trauma. That information is pre collected and it's really important for us. So you have all that information, you have a.

Speaker 1

Good and when you say information, just talking about the height and a recent photo and that kind of thing.

Speaker 3

Yeah, the autistic kids are there's something that scares them and what you know, the things and you keep this at home so nobody has contact with this information. It's all yours and it's safe. It's not on a web, it's not anywhere else. It's in your house. But you give that to the dog team. We had a case in Saint John's where that happened. A grandfather's grandson had autism. Left he met the handler at the front door with the kit. Seven minutes later they found a young man.

Speaker 1

That's incredible.

Speaker 3

We had a I've got a story after story.

Speaker 1

Well, I was going to say, when you and I first had this conversation several years ago, when you kicked this off, you had some stories from your experiences just as a professional. Now this has been into effect how many years.

Speaker 3

Now, since seventeen We really kicked it off twenty seventeen, and we're pushing a thousand people being found.

Speaker 1

Just because of that kit and the dogs that are trained to find the people on the other side of it.

Speaker 3

One of the most amazing stories of Sumter County, Florida and the villages are there. They had one of their dogs got cancer. Didn't have the money and the budget at the time. We donated a dog. A month later, a sixteen year old autistic kid goes missing, been missing for twenty four hours. He had one of the kits.

They had our ten month old. That dog trailed from the house they lived on the wheel of the Cahoochie River, swam over a half mile and found that young man standing in neck deep water alive.

Speaker 1

Are all of these dogs the same type breed bloodhounds? We use bloodhounds. I want to get to that. Next sixteen past the hour, we got more to talk about with Paul Coley sentevidenceknine dot com. I just bought several kits the last time I was on the website. I'm just telling you this is one of the smartest gifts you'll ever give. And there's some little companion products. You'll talk about that as well. Next with me, I want to get Ryan's thoughts on some of this that we're

talking about. It's so Grandpa, keep listening, Okay, We're not done with your grandson here. This morning show with Preston Scott back with Paul Coley and one of his employees, Ryan and Ryan I was I was asking you in the break, when you hear that a dog that you've trained, and dogs that you've trained have helped bring one hundred and fifty plus people home, what do you what do you how do you feel about that? What does it do to you?

Speaker 4

I mean, it definitely takes time to set in, and sometimes it doesn't even feel real, but I mean, I just know that these dogs are incredible and very gift from God. And I mean just I can't imagine being the handler and finding these people and saving their lives.

Speaker 1

But you trained that dog. That dog was able to do what it did because of the paces and the training and what you put that dog through. It's got to be remarkably rewarding.

Speaker 4

It's so rewarding, and training these dogs is it's so much fun because they love it, we love it. It's enjoyable for all of us.

Speaker 1

A lot of people listening to the program might remember that when you and I first had you in here, you brought Rex with you. I believe correct Rex the wonder dog, and we just did what You probably laughed at the lack of a challenge, it was going to present because I hid in the building here, correct, and he found me in a commercial break of less than three minutes. I was found in probably thirty seconds.

Speaker 3

Probably thirty eeh. He sat on the door, he said, he's.

Speaker 1

In here, Dad. Yeah, that's nuts. Yeah, it's just.

Speaker 3

The way God has used these tools and these animals to protect his has just been amazing.

Speaker 1

If you were to paint a picture, who's this Who should be getting swabbed?

Speaker 3

Everybody but people at risk if you have young girls, you know, teenagers, make sure that happens. People get into our homes through the internet from time to time, so kids on the spectrum, adults with some kind of dementia, anybody at risk, please get one of these. I hope you never need it.

Speaker 1

Yeah, and I've given these to, you know, our family members that have babies, because you know, you just never know with a child, they could just be abducted. But also I want to speak to those of you that are in I mean, let's face it, some of you are in custodial situations where there could be a non custodial parent that decides they're just going to show up and take the child, and the child may willingly go because they don't know any different. They don't know and

this kit can be the difference. Well, I've asked you this question before, I'm gonna ask it again. What happens when someone's grabbed a child is grabbed and thrown in the back seat of a car and the car drives off. A lot of people think, well, can't track that.

Speaker 3

That's not correct.

Speaker 1

Yeah, I love it. Come on, tell them.

Speaker 5

Tell them.

Speaker 3

There's vents in a vehicle since nineteen seventy six. And how I explain that to somebody is if you're sitting two cars behind another vehicle and they're smoking in their vehicle with the windows up and everything. You smell the cigarette, right, Well, you take a dog's nose. Who's just you know, phenomenal coming out of that vehicle is you're driving around in an odor bomb. So these dogs are picking it up. And we have case after case after case where the

dogs are they going to catch somebody on a vehicle. No, but they're going to give them. The direction of travels make these detectives jobs much easier, pulling video cameras and all these kind of things. And on occasion you may take them to where the vehicle's parked or.

Speaker 1

But the scent of the abducted person or the person that just gets in a car and just goes off is going to be picked up by the dog. Absolutely, that's amazing.

Speaker 3

It's just these their noses and their capability is just unbelievable. I've been doing this over twenty years and I still get amazed.

Speaker 1

Friends. Here's here's the call to action Scent evidenceknine dot com. You have the kits, you have them bundled in different packages. Kind of explain the breakdown.

Speaker 3

Well, well, we actually my daughter has written a couple of children's books. This is not an easy subject to talk about, no, but we have a couple of books here that mom and dad or caregiver or grandma and grandpa can read to the child and helps them understand this is a world where we have to prepare our kids for being safe nowadays, and these books help that.

And then we got rex a rescue published stuff cute animal that helps a little bit, and we carry those with us when we're looking for people to give to individuals when we find them as well. And that flash job is really important. That individual preparedness plan is extremely important in that kid.

Speaker 1

Folks, it's one of the best investments you will ever make. It's the best investment you'll make in your child, in your parents, your grandparents, in anybody an adolescent that's you know, maybe at risk for one reason or another, you're concerned about, maybe choices they might be making. It's just a backup. It's something to have just in case. Absolutely, Paul, thanks for coming in. Thank you for having us, and Ryan, even though you're a Vikings fan, I'm going to overlook that.

Thanks for coming in. I appreciate what you do.

Speaker 4

Yes, sir, thank you so much.

Speaker 1

And congratulations on being a graduate of Florida State University. Thank you. All right, friends, twenty seven past the hour. More to come on the Morning Show with President Scott Big stories in the press Box. Time here on the Morning Show before we get to money talk. President elect Donald Trump planning an executive order to remove transgenders from

the military. The pushback is, how can he do that when recruiting numbers are so low, not thinking about the fact that maybe recruiting numbers are low because the military has gone woke, because they're spending time on diversity and equity and inclusion, because there's it's fifteen thousand transgenders, which to me means fifteen thousand people that are fighting mental illness that are serving in our military. I am not mad at them. For the most part. Many are simply confused.

Although at this stage I think you could say, if you're that old and you're dealing you're probably dealing with significant mental illness that you have embraced. You are you are living your truth very intentionally. But it's compromised our country. It's compromised our military, and Trump wants to put it to an end. Good good, That's what needs to happen. US District Judge s Cato Cruz, you know, right, I

heard the name yesterday. You might not have heard. It was a little bit of a pejorative kind of shot I took. I was like, Okay, Biden appointee Colorado s kto Cruz. Really, I'm sorry. I shouldn't be judging a book by its cover, but I do. And the fact of the matter is I knew going in what the ruling was going to be. The judge said, nay, nay. A man pretending to be a woman can play in the NCAA Women's volleyball tournament, and it is a travesty. It is an embarrassment. I believe that men, young men

playing collegiate sports in every sport need to stop. Don't play the revenue producing sports. Guys, you could put an end to this. We're not playing until this stops. We're protecting women's sports. First of all. Some of you that can't get a date, you'll get a date. I oh, you're protecting us. Yes, yes, that needs to happen. Blair

Fleming is his name. San Jose. San Jose State University's in the tournament in part because of six forfeits teams that did the right thing and said we're not allowing our young ladies to compete against a man. And just to be clear, you should know this isn't just about the physiological advantages, but it's the fact that the sport lowers the net. For girls women's volleyball, the net is lower,

thus enhancing the advantage and danger. Do you need to mention the young lady that was playing high school volleyball got spiked in the face by a pretend female, a boy playing girl's volleyball. She was hit so hard in the face her neck, in essence broke and she now has partial paralysis. It would appear the rest of her

life never should have happened. And special counsel Jack Smith drops the Trump election interference Case's dropped, charges dropped, filed, the paperwork said, yeah, we don't have a case at this point. He got elected. Rats. The only thing missing is he's snapping his finger at rats. He got away. No, Jack Smith never had standing in a courtroom, but somehow he was given it. Forty minutes past the hour, Oute Heisman standing by next to the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 5

The Morning Show with Preston Scott on news Radio one hundred point seven WFL A.

Speaker 1

Time for money talk with investment advisor Howard Heisman with enhanced financial services, securities and advisory services offered through NBC Securities Inc. Member Findra and SIPC. NBC Securities Inc. Is a wholly owned subsidiary of RBC Bank USA. The opinions expressed are not those of NBC Securities Inc. Or iHeartMedia, and on appropriate matters, seek professional tax and or legal advice. Joining me on the program is Howard Heisman. Good morning, sir, how are you?

Speaker 6

I am fine, sir? I am fine. Thank you for asking tell.

Speaker 1

Me about what you expect the differences to be as Trump takes off as well. I guess we really have a way to compare Trump in his first term and what Barack Obama did his predecessor. We sort of know some things. What do we know looking back?

Speaker 6

Yeah, and this may be somewhat surprising to your listeners. So, the annualized return of the S and P five hundred growth index under Obama and Trump, and you couldn't think of it's hard to imagine more different personalities and styles and policies came in exactly at sixteen point three percent under each president. And here we are Biden's terms about to come to a close, and the returns there have

been about fourteen percent. So I think there's a real leffing in this, and that is that many folks who would deem themselves very politically astute and attuned and are very passionate about it, oftentimes may make the mistake of making market timing decisions that may not bear fruit. I would suggest that the most important issue when determining investing in the market maybe in the likelihood of a positive outcome. President.

Maybe are you investing in a time where stocks in general happened to be attractively valued or are they overpriced or are they underpriced? And in the case of when Obama took office, we were coming out of a deep hole, the Great financial meltdown, and that ended up really helping his numbers dramatically because the markets were low at that point.

Speaker 1

What if I were to suggest that the undergirding of Obama's relative strength in the marketplace was based on government spending, whereas the Trump strength is based on market forces and the free market system and capitalism.

Speaker 6

My immediate response is, I think if we look back at federal government spending on under both Trump and Obama, it was very, very high. We had dramatic increases in the deficits and national debt under both, and of course ditto the same here under Biden. We've had massive federal

spending and dramatic increases in the debt and deficit. So government spending providing liquidity into the economy, yes, I would agree, is really a key point because some of that liquidity makes it into the hands of everyday consumers and some of that makes it into the markets.

Speaker 1

When you're talking about the FED right now, what are we expecting to happen.

Speaker 6

Great question. So I think there's been a little change in the mindset here Preston, So federal funds, futures traders, which back in September we're pricing in the likelihood of six twenty five basis points, that's a quarter of a percent rate cuts this year in the next year, have now paired that back because we're still seeing signs of a little bit sticky inflation, particularly in the housing sector. So now the forecast calls for the likelihood of just

two or three rate cuts. We'll see what happens here in mid December, probably at twenty five basis point rate cut, but not guaranteed. Again, markets love liquidity, so I think that's going to be one of the interesting themes as we look into the new year and a new presidency in Congress. How much pressure does President Trump choose to put on the Federal reserve to try and keep interest rates at a lower, moderate level.

Speaker 1

We've got about thirty seconds to close with this. You mentioned inflation, What are the expectations.

Speaker 6

That's interesting. The median one year expectation amongst consumers is that inflation's going to be about two point eighty seven percent. Looking out over the next year, and that's the lowest consumer take on inflation since October of twenty twenty. But it's kind of mixed real quick. About a third of the population thinks inflation's going to be at four percent or higher and eighteen percent, well, they're on the complete opposite end. They think we're going to have deflation because

we're heading into a recession. So flip a coin and we'll all find out a little bit more about it over the next Thank.

Speaker 1

You Allard, have a great Thanksgiving. We'll talk one more time before the end of the year.

Speaker 6

Look forward to it, same Preston.

Speaker 1

Thank you, sir. Howard Eisman with us this morning on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Let them. Wisconsin Share deputy came to the rescue of a ten year old. He called nine one one. It's a nice, nice way to end the week for me. Grant in tomorrow with Jose Shiuano County Sheriff's Office dispatcher answered a nine to one one call. The ten year old needed help with his math homework, he said. He told the dispatcher that his family wasn't very good at math either, and he

needed help. He said, I know I'm not supposed to call about this, but the sheriff said she had some time, so she said, can I can I help you with the problem? And he gave me this long problem with decimals and she was unable to help him. She said, let me let me see if I got a deputy near your residence. And so Deputy Sheriff Chase Mason took the call and agreed to look at the problem, and they solved it because he was good at math. That particular deputy in school gotta love it. All I can

tell you is from personal experience. If ever there was a situation in school that would force me to call nine to one one, it would have been high school math.

Brought to you by Barno Heating and Air.

Speaker 1

It's the morning show on WFLA. Now, I could go ahead and reset the program in one hundred and eighty seconds or less, but I'm not gonna. That's why we listened. No, here's why. Humblehouseministries dot org. That's where we are raising funds Panama City or Tallahassee or both. You can give to both, like like my wife and I did. And I'm telling you that so you know we've got some skin in the game. I'm not asking to do something
