I don't know if you've paid any attention yet or at all to Christy Nome is out there making the circuit for interviews. She's interviewing with different folks about her about her book, No Going Back, I think is the name of the book, and it has been, I mean, from my vantage point,
an absolute debacle and train wreck. I had heard some time ago oz Oz had seen somebody on social media commenting on a story that was in the book where Christinoam had shot her dog, fourteen month old shot and killed her dog, that dog that she said was untrainable. And of course people were having a heyday with this mocking and so forth. And look, she was
South Dakota rancher. I mean, it's a different world, right, but the concept of shooting one's dog is not something that is widely You're not going to be welcomed with open arms. I mean, I don't know if I don't know, I don't know how she expected that to be taken. I don't know. I just I don't know what the thought was there, you know, I don't know if possibly it makes it sound like she's tough and ready to make difficult decisions in spite of any emotional emotional consequence or connection,
I don't know. I'm not really sure what that would be doing in a book. But it is in the book. It's in the book, and I don't know if she doesn't know how much the average person who has a dog loves their dog. We've got two here. I it's interesting. I consider myself a dog guy, but not like there's people today who take dog relationships to the next the next level. I mean, I'm not a guy that's ever gonna be And if you do this, that's fine. I'm not
Please don't misunderstand me. But I'm not a guy that's going to be putting rubber boots on my dog to go outside and walk in the rain, or a raincoat or sweaters. I got my sister in law does this stuff, and fine, I got no problem. I'm just not that guy. But I love dogs. I love you know. When I worked on the horse farm, it was me and my dogs and talk radio and horses. That's
what it was for most of the time. Never some occasionally some folks out there that were working with me. But I was by myself a lot, and I actually enjoyed a lot of that. And I get it. I mean I wasn't a rancher. I mean I was technically, I guess you could say a horse farmer for three years, so I mean, I understand the practical aspects of trying to live and manage a farm and just protecting protecting your kids and livestock and all this stuff. But anyway, that was in
there initially. But now we've got the whole staring down Kim Jung Oon story that's in the book. Well, that was in the book. I just got to explain this and it's going to take a moment, but that's what I want to talk about. So she's got this book that's out and the interviews are not going well. And it's not even because the media is targeting her. There's a little bit of condescension and arrogance, and they don't like
her because she's a conservative and so forth. She's a Trump supporting Republican. They don't like that about her. They don't like this she's a Republican. So anyway, I want to get into this today. I've got some sound bites and there's lots of other stuff in the stack of stuff to get to as well, including Governor Kathy Hokle saying that black kids don't know what computers
are. Add that to the list of truly racist and stupid things at the left has said about black Americans. Anyway, we'll get to that and do course. But my friends, before we do that, Before we do that, let me remind you, if you haven't done so already, that you can go to z stacklife dot com zstacklife dot com and you can check out one of their six premiere all natural supplements that they make available on their website, their original z stack formula.

So let me give a little bit of background as can you grab that off the printer or did I print something and didn't grab it. So let me let me set the stage a little bit. Thank you, Ez, come on this way, okay. Let me let me share with you a little bit of background as to how we've I guess got here set this up with with Christi
Nomes. So Christynam is the governor of South Dakota. She's been governor for some time now, she's been I think again, I'm not in South Dakota, but I pay attention to these things. She seems to have been, in my estimation, a good governor, a good conservative governor. Not perfect, none of us are perfect, but I think consistently a conservative governor. And she has found herself on the short list, or what many people believe
to be the shortlist, for vice presidential candidates for Trump. Right. I asked Oz coincidentally or incidentally here before the program, I said, Oz, who is your choice for vice president? I'm getting a look right now. I'm not going to say everything you said, Oz. I told her I was going to say. I told her I was going to say her choice was Mike Pence. And I said, Oz will get her first hate mail if I say that. She did not say that. Let me just make
that clear. I was teasing with her before the show. Before the show, she did not say Mike Pence. She actually doesn't know who she wants. But she's not very happy with this debacle that's become Christy Nome's experience. And I think that that's objectively where I think most people are going to land. And so Christy Nome, Governor South Dakota, has gotten some national attention. Long before the book. She was a Trump supporter. She's been she's
been strong. I think she's governed well again, not perfectly, but well. And so she finds herself. We believe she believes on the short list of potential vice presidential candidates. And so she hired a ghostwriter. Now most of you know what a ghostwriter is, but I you know, we have
folks tuning in with all different experience levels. So a ghostwriter is somebody like, let's say I'm going to write I don't have ghostwriters, but let's say I'm going to write a book, and I'm someone like Christiname or Trump or whatever. A lot of folks will choose to get someone to actually do the work of writing the book, and then the person like christyme would sit for
interviews maybe provide some notes, maybe her thoughts, whatever. Then the ghostwriter takes it and runs with it. The ghostwriter then it's called a ghostwriter because it's the person that's writing behind the scenes that you don't really see. And it's done. Christy Nome can say it's her book written. She wrote the book, but she basically subcontracted that out, if you want to think of
it that way. She subcontracted out her job. Well, I should say that the writing of the book, the job of writing the book to a ghostwriter. And so there's a process for this. There's a process where you write the book. There's editing, there's you know, adding things, taking
things out, not just not just edits for grammar and so forth. Edits based upon what we want in the book, what we don't want in the book, maybe how we want things to flow, what goes where, maybe we change the order of certain things, whatever, that kind of thing. The proofing process, and then the book is effectively ready to go. Now it's at this point in the process that Christy Nome she read the book now, I mean she read it for the audio version of the book. So
this is where she gets involved. So they give her the manuscript or maybe it was a I don't know, the final manuscript of the book. She reads the book onto audio and she's done that, she did that process. Then after that, this is important. Now after that it is discovered revealed. Someone raises a question about one particular anecdote as she refers to it here in these interviews, anecdote that needs to be removed. So what's an anecdote.
Let's talk about that really quickly because it matters. An anecdote. I was talking to my kids this morning as they were listening. I had the I had the audio of these interviews playing out loud, and my son, who's fourteen, said, Dad, who is that? And I said, Christinam, I said why are you? Are you listening? And he said, yeah, a little bit, And I said, and I kind of
gave him a little bit of an explanation. And he didn't know what anecdote men, and so I said, you know, an anecdote like we say things go hear me say from time to time, anecdotal evidence or that's an anecdote of the larger picture. But an anecdote is when something happens. This is important, something happens, and then you take that situation, and then you apply it to maybe a larger the larger picture, if you will. So, for example, here in this state, and my excuse me,
in my state of Indiana, we had our primary election yesterday. So we had the primary yesterday. So let's say I'm driving by, there's a there's a polling place not far from me. I'm driving by the polling place. I look out my window. I'm not saying that this happened. Please don't misunderstand. I'm just illustrating what an anecdote is. I look out the window and I see a big, long line of voters, and that may that's an ant that can be anecdotal evidence that turnout is high in general in different
places here, maybe around the country and so forth. But it doesn't mean that that's the case. Maybe I just drove by when people all decided to go. It doesn't necessarily statistically mean anything. It's just a little story that
that could kind of illustrate a greater truth or illustrate a pattern. So I could say, you know, if a person has a lot of integrity, I could tell a story where they demonstrated the integrity, and then from that story, anecdotally, one could assume, or at least believe have reason to believe that the same type of integrity that was demonstrated in the anecdote that I told, the true story that I told, could be applied for the individual
in other circumstances. So that's kind of the background. So the anecdote that they have discovered after the final proofing process, now it didn't get into the final book, so I don't know if they made some sort of final final edits. They must have done that to keep it from getting into the final book. But it was after she read the book, and obviously, friends, you don't read on to create an audio version of a book without it being the final version. So that's as I understand it, the process of
how we got to this point. So she tells a story in this book, and it's going to be referenced in these interviews that I played in a moment, but she references a story a story when she goes to South Korea. Then she goes to the DMZ, the de militarized Zone, which is on the border of North and South Korea. I don't want to go through the history of all this, but suffice to to say, when we fought the Korean War. We went in, we drove the communist North Koreans back
basically into China. Then the Chinese communists joined the war. They pushed us back to what became the DMZ, the thirty eighth Parallel, and that's basically where everything stalled. That's where everything stalled. It's it's the de militarized zone. But it's still from time to time there's still could be some altercations along that DMZ. And it's been that way for g Wiz since nineteen fifty three, I think, is when the Korean War ended, so a long time.
What is that forty seven and twenty three, so that what is that? That's uh seventy that's seventy years, seventy some years, Okay, so it is. With that being said, so so she's read the book. They then caught something with this anecdote about meeting Kim Jung oon that they wanted to remove, and so people are asking her about this, why is it removed? You know, all the these seemed like relevant questions. So I'm first gonna play with you or play for you. This interview she had on
Newsmax. She's she has an interview here on Newsmax. And this is friendly media, and this is not the radical left media. This is conserving media. And these are fair questions, I might add. So I'm going to play that in a moment. But my friends, let me first remind you that gold is at an all time high. It is it has, i should say, outperformed the S and P five hundred and the Dow since nineteen
seventy one, that's when the dollar was taken off the gold standard. And all these countries and central banks, major institutions, and even the IMF itself. These folks, that includes the folks that even are responsible that control our fiat money paper money system, they all hold gold. And if they all hold gold, the question is does it make sense for you as well, especially when you think about gold being used as they say, a hedge heads
for inflation and all these sorts of things. Given the current environment, given the value of gold, given everything we know about by nomics and politics, and heading into a recession, is now a good time to look at adding gold to your portfolio. Well, my friends, you can talk with the professionals at Harvard Gold Group about just that very thing. Harvard Gooldgroup dot com is the website that you can go to and you can see if adding gold
to your portfolio makes sense. You can understand what that looks like. You can use promo code Todd along the way, and if you decide to proceed with an order with Harvard Gold, you'll get a two hundred and fifty dollars credit Harvardgoldgroup dot Com promo code Todd. So I want to play a bit of this exchange between Christinome and the folks over at Newsmax. So this is Finnerty who's asking the question here at Newsmax, Rob Affinity and Christinome going back
and forth. I think these are fair questions. This is not this is not hostile media. This is just a question that needs to be answered based upon what I share. Here's the exchange, Governor. If you asked me a month ago, who's at the top of the list to run with Donald
Trump, I would have said your name. If you ask me that same question this morning, I don't even think you're on the list, really, So my question for you, yes, really, And it's because of things that have come out in this book, like your claims that you met Kim Jong un, and then over the last week I've been to the DMZ. I've been tire. What I said, stared at on Kim Jong Let me, Governor one second. I will give you an opportunity to respond. I
just want to get this out there. So here's the here's the quote from the book. You say that I remember when I met North Korean dictator Kim Jong un. I'm sure he underestimated me, having no clue about my experience staring down little tyrants. Governor, that never happened. But I have said in the book is that when I became aware of the content that we had, it changed, and that's the way that it is. So I should not have put that antidote in the book that I'm not going to talk about
it happened. I'm not going to talk about my conversations with world leaders. I've been involved in policy for thirty years. For thirty years, I've been traveling the world talking to world leader to do with and that is a conversation that I'm not going to have in this book. Okay, there's more to this. I mean, I'm gonna play a little bit more. But notice the first question, did you meet and stare down Kim Jong un? I've been to the DMZ. That was her response, I've been to the DMZ.
Now, I've got a couple of thoughts on this. I've got a couple of thoughts on this as to how we got here that I'll share. It's gonna have to be in a ladder segment now as I'm looking at the clock and I want to play this, and i want to play the original CBS interview, which is where this was the first exchange like this, and that's not friendly media. I understand that, and I'm here to defend friendly
media or not. I'm just here to say this is these are people that are not trying to do gotcha journalism like this is an absolutely fair question. Did you meet him? Why was it in the book? Why did you take it out? She's never said that I've been to the to the DMZ. She says, on earth does that have to do? Do you realize how many people have been to the DMZ that have not stared Korean dictator Kim Jung un in the eye. I mean, it's the vast majority of them.
Most people who go to the DMZ. First of all, there's not many of them, although they do. If they go, they're typically people who are part of a you know, some sort of a larger group of American politicians and so forth, military leaders or something like that. It's not just your run of the mill, average you know, average American that's going here. So I'm not saying she didn't go to the DMZ. But that does not mean that does not mean that you met Kim Jung un. That
does not mean that you stared him in the eye, she said. And in fact, the full quote of the book that he didn't read it said something like I've dealt with little tyrants before. I was a Sunday school teacher after all, or some such thing. That was the full quote. But anyway, she's not answering this. This is so bizarre, so bizarre in so many ways. And this is from someone that, I mean, I liked her, I thought she might have been a good candidate that I don't
think that at the moment. I actually think that she destroyed her chances of being vice president. Anyway, more to say on this, but friends, let me tell you here about my friends at nick Knack Naturals.

I want to play the other bit of the SoundBite from CBS. Actually we'll finish this one as well, and I want to give you my thoughts on a couple of explanations as to what might have happened to get us to this point. But Christy Nome, I mean metaphorically crash and burn here with these interviews. It's pretty embarrassing. She's not handling this
well at all. Plenty of things to talk about with this, a lot of teachable moments, but I've got to take a break. My friends. You're listening here to conservative not bitter talk. I am your host, the one, the only, the ever sable of it. Todd Huff back in
just a minute. Welcome back, my friends. We're talking about Christy Nome and this pretty embarrassing series of media appearances, both on what I would consider at least relatively friendly media, people that aren't out to get her like a Newsmax, which is what I've been playing first here, but also on media that of course hates her, hates Trump, hates Magger, Republicans and all this sort of stuff. She's run into problems all over the place, and
it's it's embarrassing, it's bizarre. This is the result, I'm telling you. You know this. This is the result of listening to people who are consultants and are trying to help you manage a crisis. That's what this is. Crisis, man, I'm telling you right now, these the PR and crisis management. I'm not saying that, no, I know I've got PR professionals out there, But my friends, PR has become a term, an abbreviation. I guess it's a symbol for basically, how do I get out
of a problem without really admitting I created a problem? And I know, look, I know. It's just like I've been in sales. It's just like saying, you know, a lot of people think sales is about tricking people to buy for stuff. I would say, true sales is not about that. True sales, genuine sales is about helping someone understand the value of the product or service, and if it's a fit, then you find a way to get that person what benefits them. I would say the same for
PR. PR is a tool that's designed to manage your brand, your message publicly through the media, and so forth. It's just unfortunate that many people turn to manipulation and not looking to action. What answering the question? Just answer it. My goodness, it would be so much better if she did that, but she didn't. So I'm going to go back to where we stopped on this sound bite. Rob Finnerty News Max interviewing Christinome asking her about
this this well didn't happen? Did you meet Kim Jong Un? I don't think I don't think you did, is what he ends up saying here. So that being said, I'm going to pick up where we left off. Actually, I'm going to back this up ten seconds just so we don't miss anything. So you'll hear a little bit of what we heard a moment ago, and we'll pick up and hear the rest of this SoundBite again. Christinoam talking with Rob Thinnerty on Newsmax about her book, in particular about meeting Kim
Jong un. Here it is see for thirty years, For thirty years, I've been traveling the world talking to world leaders, and that is a conversation that I'm not going to have in this book. So I've answered that another interviews already. I've been very forthright, and I think that a typical politician wouldn't be that honest. As soon as it became to my attention, I asked for the content to be changed, and it has been. Governor.
I'm not asking you about their details of this alleged meeting. I'm asking if the meeting actually happens. I don't think it did, and I think if it did, you'd be able to confirm for me that yes, it did. And here's when it happened. It happens, say at such and such a date for a month, or you don't have to talk about I'm not going to talk about my conversation. You're going to continue to have to answer this question. He's right, I don't think so, because the average American
citizen is more worried about the border. They're more worried about what we see in a White House and a president that since January has gone out there and misled the American people over one hundred and fifty times, and nobody pushes him on what he says. That he was imprisoned with Nelson Mandela, that he drove an eighteen wheeler, that his uncle was eaten by cannibals, that he
started the civil rights movement. There is a hypocrisy in the media today, and I would like to see that the American people know and recognize the difference. That they want leaders who actually will go forward and give them a way that they can elect people who want to represent them and fight for them governor. That's a very good point, and I'm not deliberately trying to be adversarial.
I just know he's not Donald Trump winning, and that is very important yes, and I think that whoever he chooses to be his running mate. So I'm gonna pause it and stop it there. But I don't know. To me, this sounds exactly like the political speak that she's railing about here. Did you meet with him and he made a mistake? Rob Finnerty, I don't. I'm familiar with him, but I'm not super familiar. So
this is not meant to be an insult. But you made a mistake because you shouldn't have said specific time and date, because as soon as you use the word specific, she's going to say, Look, I can't talk about details, don't. I don't reveal details of my conversations with world leaders. I don't go into that. But you should have left that part out. You should have just said, have you met with Kim Jong un? Ever, ever, I don't even know one specific thing. Did that happen?
You wrote about it, you took it out. You apparently at some point thought that it was okay to tell people this. I'm not asking any details. I'm not asking what he had on I'm not asking if you shared a meal, what he had to eat. I'm not asking any of that. I'm not asking if he winked at you. If I'm not asking anything. I'm not asking if he revealed military secrets. I'm not asking if you called him rocketman. I'm not asking any of those things. I'm just asking,
did you meet with him? Did that really happen? Did you stare eye to high with this little dictator like you did with the kids in Sunday School? Did that happen? She says she's answered the question. She's not. I'm more confused every time I listen to the sound bite. I'm more confused as to what she's trying to communicate here. But I mean I'm not at the same time, because I know that what she's doing is trying to avoid
it. She's been coached on this. If you watch her other interviews and I'll play time permitting here, I'll play a little bit of where this all started, which was over at CBS, and it's the same thing. It's the same thing. I don't give out details about meeting with world leaders. That's not what I'm about the business of doing right. And then now you've lost the ability to press her if you ask her any detail, it's not a detail to say, did the meeting happen? I don't want to know.
In fact, don't say anything to me besides yes to no. You can be you could turn it that direction. I don't use any words to protect the integrity of that meeting. I just need to know did it happen, yes or no? Any other word that you say misnome is going to be you know, it's going to lead us in the direction of you sharing too much information. Let's just did it happen, yes or no. That's the one of the two words that needs to come from you in response to
this question. That's the only two words that we agree will work. So, of course that did not happen. But there's two there's two reasons that we got here that I can think of two reasons that we're here. So first, she's realized, of course, that she's a legitimate candidate, or she was a legitimate candidate for vice president of the United States. Many people, most people, almost all people, would not pass up this opportunity. We do know that Desantas said he had no interest in being Trump's VP.
We know, according to some reports, although Trump's team denies it, there was conversations allegedly potentially between Trump and RFK Junior's team. Some people say that that happened, and RFK Junior said he had no interest. Again, I'm not saying that that's the truth. I'm just saying that these are some of the reports, and you know, take with it what you will. But
most people are not going to turn that down. I remember Rush used to say to run for office, to run for the highest office, especially of the land, you have to have quite a high opinion of yourself. You have to believe that. I mean, you look at what you're going to step into, right, And I wish that. I wish that more people would be willing to step into politics, But they're afraid of this buzzsaw. And in that respect, I mean, you think, man, they're going
after her pretty hard, and they are. But this is these are legitimate questions. She's still not answered it. So far as I can tell, I've not found the answer anywhere. Yes or no? Did you meet with Kim Jong un? And if you didn't, why was it ever in the book? Right? I mean, we do know from Obama's books. Remember Obama admitted in his memoir or whatever autobiography, whatever it was, he wrote that the women he wrote about in his book that he used to date was
like a compilation of a conglomeration of different women. So he might be talking about Stacy, and Stacy's really a symbol of two or three other women rolled into one. So I understand that we're dealing in a world where people take a lot of liberty. But did the meeting happen? So I think, just really quickly, there's one or two opportunity explanations for this number One.
She's realized she's a VP candidate. She wants to take the opportunity. And everybody who's running for you know, major office, major office in a presidential election year, they all have a book. And so maybe maybe she realized that she needed to get something out. She fast tracked things a little bit. She hired this ghostwriter, Things gets sloppy, editing is sped up, and here we are. That's the I don't know in my mind best case
explanation. The other explanation is that she wants to sound tough. She needs to have a dictator to stare down in her story. So they throw it in, they make it up, and she gets caught for having never met him, and then has to back out and doesn't want to say I didn't really meet. What was originally in the book isn't really what happened. She doesn't want to say that. I leave it to you to decide which of those is true. But that's, my friends, the way, the way
that I look at it. I don't know if there's any other any other explanation. They either were it was either intentional or unintentional. If it was unintentional, then it had to be a sloppy process, a sped up process in the editing and so forth. Or it was intentional it was intended to paint a picture of someone who's tough, who can handle the job, and then they got caught. I don't know what other explanation there could be.
I suppose possibly there is, But anyway, that's my thoughts on the subject. Quick timeouts in order I got some closing thoughts. Actually made me think of a story, and I want to share on the other side of the break sitsight with my friends back here in just a minute. Welcome back, my friends. So I've got a quick story that I want to tell you that this situation reminds me of. And I also, well, we'll just focus on the story really quickly, and if I don't get to the CBS
interview. That's on the stack of stuff at the website Todd haveshow dot com. You will find that in today's stack of stuff. But before I do that, let me remind you, my friends, that heart disease.

When I was in school in college, I remember, I think it was I think it was my junior year. I think it was my junior I know it wasn't my freshman year. I don't think it was my sophomore year. It could have been my my junior year. I believe I took a class that was called creative nonfiction. Now I understand, I
understand that that should be the first sign, and it did. It did give me pause because, of course, nonfiction. The way that I learned as a young man to remember this nonfiction NF that's not fake fiction, of course, is when we tell stories, novels and so forth, and you know, sometimes there can be based on a true story sort of thing, and then you take a little bit of creative license. I thought the class,
I really did. I thought it was a way a class that was designed to teach students how to present nonfiction writing in a creative way, meaning not to make stuff up, but yet just to tell it in a way so that it would be easier to read and under understand and more enjoyable and so forth. In fact, I've mentioned before, I've got I've got some a little set of a little set of cards here that help people tell better stories. I got that sitting here on my desk. It's looking at me
right now. It's called storyteller tactics, and it helps to bring some of these stories a life. I thought it was something like that, anyway, it was not. Professor would routinely tell us when we would turn in a draft of a paper, you know, something needs to happen here. And then I would say, I mean, I'm a guy, you know. Not everything in the world is black and white. But I mean it's either fiction or nonfiction, right, I mean there's not there either is a guy
that there isn't. There's some things that are pretty black and white. There is no middle ground. You can there can be disagreement and subjectivity and a lot of things. You know, is it too hot or too cold? Do you prefer chocolate or vanilla ice cream? Right? But there's certain things that if I'm writing nonfiction and someone says just make it up and throw it in here that I'm gonna say. But that didn't happen to what she would
say, I don't care. It makes the story more interesting. And so I don't know what you would have called the class if you were being honest about the name of the class, I don't know what you would what you would have called it. It certainly would not have been what it was called because it wasn't nonfiction. I mean, it was basically I guess you could call it, you know, based on a true story maybe, and then
you have your own license to create things along the way. But this whole story about listening to Christy Noome try to explain what happened in her book without actually trying to tell you anything. She just wants to say certain words, make certain statements. I don't give out details. I removed the anecdote, but I'm not going to tell you if it really happened or notther It just takes me back to that class. It takes me back to the class.
He's the same professor. By the way. Again, I'm not going to say his name. Boy. I try. Sometimes I could slip and say it. I do remember it. I don't want to do that to him. But I do remember the time he stood up in front of the class. I think I've shared this on here. I think I just shared this on here a couple of weeks ago. He said, Christianity a good idea, but it got all fed up, is what he said. So that
was the guy I talked with him afterwards one on one. Definitely was not the same tough guy that was saying that in front of the class in a one on one setting. But anyhow, this is the same short Those are the nonsense I had to put up with. And this was twenty she was twenty five or so years ago. Not anything like what it is today, what average students today have to put up with. That's probably a mild day at the office, so to speak. But anyway, this takes me back
down memory lane, and I still don't know. She thinks she's answered, or she claims she's answered these questions. Christinome has not answered any of these questions. She has dramatically hampered her chances of becoming vice president. So anyway, folks, it's her own doing. I've got to go SDG
