Also, I want to let you know that there's an air show going on. You might have heard them yesterday. Holy cow. It was unbelievable. I was just out working in the yard. I know, it was like one hundred degrees out. It was probably not the smartest thing for me to be doing, but I was out working in the yard,
getting some water, getting some shade. But I was watching some of the formations that they were doing getting things ready for the Sioux Falls Air Show. Power on the Prairie. It's officially this Saturday and Sunday, but today is the Sioux Falls Air Show Discover Aviation Day sponsored by Aerostar. It's from ten am till four pm, free admission. It's at the Maverick Air Center forty three zero one North Maverick Place and Sioux Falls. I was actually there
the other day. I had never been there before. So you kind of go on Minnesota Avenue almost like you're going to drive all the way to North sixtieth, but right before you get to North sixtieth you'll see the turnoff for Maverick Air Again. Just punch in four three zero one North Maverick Place,
Sioux Falls. And here's some photos on here on the website from the last time they did this, but they're going to be getting new photos today and a whole lot of activities are going to be set up and ready to come out and have fun.

Heidi Show. Excited to have a guest today telling us about a really cool event that's coming up this weekend. I have Scott Man and we're going to talk about a play called Last Out. Hello, sir, how are you hey? John? Thanks for having me on, exactly excited to have you on, and again, thank you so much for taking the time to chat with us. Tell me a little bit about this performance is coming up this weekend. And Sue Falls Oh, I'll tell you. We are so excited
about bringing this play to Sue Falls. The name of the play is Last Out lg of a Green Beret and John. I spent about twenty three years in the Army, and eighteen of that as a Green Beret, most of that fighting in the War on Tariffs and a lot of time in Afghanistan. And about six years ago, I noticed that as my kids got older,
my oldest sons that he wanted to be a Green Beret too. I just started looking around and I saw that so many Americans were just completely unaware of what was going on in this long war, and all of the movies and the books they were about, you know, the individuals and teams that go in and kick the doors and jump into the hostile countries, and you never hear about the men and women who go back to places like Afghanistan in a rock day after day, month after month, year after year. And I
wanted to tell that story. So as a public speaker and storyteller, I started putting a play together that would tell that story about a guy named Danny Patton who's a Green Beret sergeant fictional character and his family as they go through this long war and then to complete my midlife crisis, I decided to learn how to act at fifty and do it from the stage. I love that. That's really cool. First of all, thank you for your service.
I appreciate that too. Oh thanks John. Now, this performance in Sue Falls, it'll be at the South Dakota Military Heritage Alliance And this is a beautiful facility. It's gonna be really a great, great place to do this. Have you done this performance in this area before? Is this the first time in South Dakota. So we performed this. We went to sixteen cities in twenty nineteen, John, and one of them was in Vermillion, South Dakota. Nice and it was absolutely one of the best tour stops that we
did. There were so many people in that area who had served in a rock in Afghanistan, a lot of National Guard and Reserve and we just had it was such a community event. And that's what this play is about. It is about community. It is about going into communities like sou Falls and telling the story of modern war so that civilians can have a better understanding of the impact on warriors and their families and so veterans, whether they fought in
Vietnam or the Gulf War post nine to eleven. They can receive the validation of the life that they live, see it told safely from the stage, and sit among their neighbors, you know, who are civilians, and then do a talk back at the end and really have the conversations that we need to have around this hard subject. And the event in Sue Falls is this Friday and Saturday. So there's one performance Friday, the twenty eighth, and
another one on Saturday at the twenty ninth at seven pm. If people would like to get tickets, they should probably do that sooner rather than later, right, Yeah, absolutely, if you go to the Gary Sineese Foundation dot org. And by the way, Gary has seen the play, and after the collapse in Afghanistan and the moral injury that has been heaped upon our warriors and their families, Gary approached me to put this tour back on the road,
and so Gary's foundation is behind this thing. So if you come to the play, you're going to be able to learn about the programs and services that the Gary SNEeSe Foundation has. You're gonna be able to see this show. And yeah, if you go to the Gary Sineese Foundation dot org and you scroll down, you'll see Laughed Out.

General public, you can buy a ticket. But you know what, the good chunk of that is all going right back to
a really good cause as well. So I think it's a great thing. It's a great investment. Gary Sine's Foundation presents a Hero's Journey production last out Elegy of a Green Beret and again we've got the guy who is Are you going to be performing this weekend year as well? Yeah? Absolutely so. I played the protagonist, a guy named the Master Sergeant Danny Patton, who was based on Free Green Beret Team sergeants that didn't make at home. I've
rolled them all into one character. The cast, John is almost entirely veteran, and then the other members are military family members, and so the entire cast is from the military community. So when people watch this, the authenticity that they're going to see and feel and the I mean, it's really quality performance. We train very, very hard for this, and I think people are going to be blown away by the level of performance and the authenticity of
the storytelling. Well and again, the gentleman we're talking to on the phone right now, the creator of the program and one of the actors in the program, get out see him see this production this weekend.

Here's your marketbed minute for Thursday, July twenty seventh, brought to you by Genesis Gooldira dot com. Equity markets wobbled Wednesday following the FEDS twenty five basis point interest rate hike. That hike put the base rate at five hundred and
fifty basis points, in the highest level in over two decades. The statement indicated a possible pause at the next meeting, but left the door open for another historic interest rate hike later in the year. The data dependent FED will watch the inflation data for its next queue, and the next release is just around the corner. The PC Price Index is due out and it may alter
the FEDS trajectory. The index is expected to moderate from the previous month, and the question is by how much and if the decline will be sustained. As it is, the price of oil is on the rise, and oil underpins the cost of everything. With it on the rise, it is likely that inflation will remain hot, if not accelerate, and lead the FOEMC to raise raids higher and higher. Regardless, there is little expectation for a rate cut until twenty twenty four. If then. You can get the inside track
