From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City, always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kelmead.

Well, kinda. It's a much bigger, more stout, astute version of the kill me. That's right. You're speaking with Tyra.

So I'm filling in for BK while he goes work on his leg day and get his legs right. He's been looking kind of skinny in the legs lately, according to Dana Perino. But I am excited to be here today to get a chance to talk a little more. The cuffs are off, and it's my way. I can talk about whatever I want to talk about.

And I. Talked about a little bit last night on the Gutfell show where I Greg and I were discussing the whole bigger than Watergate signal. Uh War plans debacle that the left is. acting like it was uh somebody got the codes to the nuclear uh So the red button. But uh It's just refreshing that was a mistake made 1,000%.

But Greg was right when he said this is not a story. He's not going to participate anymore in it. But, uh,. The thing is about accountability. And I think when it comes to accountability, it's your response has to match the accountability, which means if I'm 15 minutes late home for dinner and I didn't bother to call, the response is like, hey, you should have called.

And that was the criticism. And I should have came back with you're right. I should have called. I apologize. And you should be able to move on.

But when it's like, oh, you should have called, you did this on purpose, you've been doing this all the time, it was a plot against me and what I had going on, you have no respect for it, and it turns into this whole giant thing, and you don't even understand where the anger and where the question is coming from. And look, and what's crazy is we have a transparent presidency. We have a president that can answer questions, can do this crazy thing called Think on the Spot without reading from a card or a teleprompter, or having someone else come out and speak for him, or tell us, you know, we'll circle back to that, or we'll get to you, or as we said, or just, hey, I'm not answering that question because it's a difficult question and I don't have my lie right yet. If we could run SOT3, this is a great example of what. This is how you handle an issue.

Director Gabber testified that any information that would indicate that the U.S. or its allies are going to make an attack should be classified. The Secretary of Defense has said that the information in those messages was not classified. Are you going to ask him to review whether it should have been, should flight times and sequencing behavior? Sure, I'll ask him to do it sure.

I would, it would be. Um You you can view that two ways, frankly. There's a lot of ways to answer that question, but I'd certainly ask him to take a look at it.

So again, for anybody who's been covering the previous administration, that question would never have been allowed because it was too long. I think it was a paragraph question with a lot of details. And again, President Trump, again, we shouldn't have to applaud this, but I feel like you kind of do was able to answer at a high level and be very open about it. Like, yeah, 1,000% I would ask him that. And I'm going to do that.

And, you know, we're going to follow through. Here's the thing: was it a mistake? Yes, 1,000%. Is it to the level of which we're hearing from the left? No.

But there still was accountability. We still know the chain of command. We know, you know, Mike Knox, I take full responsibility. Pete Heska stepped in and he talked about it. The president addressed it.

So, and you hear him like, we need accountability. What more do you need from that? And apparently, hit seven, rep Jim Hines wanted, well, listen to this. Everyone here knows that the Russians or the Chinese could have gotten all of that information. And they could have passed it on to the Houthis, who easily could have repositioned weapons and altered their plans to knock down planes or sink ships.

They could have. They could have also diversified their stocks, invested in Tesla, and seen it go up nine to eight points and make some money on the weekend. Huda, coulda, woulda, shouldas. Like worst case scenarios, that's not what's based on could bad things have happened? Yes.

Did bad things happen? No. Doesn't need to be corrected 100%. But you don't get to go down. What about what isms and oh, this could have happened and this could have been.

It's a waste of time and it's a justly unfair criticism. And again, it's not just one. This is probably the most egregious one is roll eight. This text message is clearly classified information. Secretary Hagseth has disclosed military plans as well as classified information, he needs to resign immediately.

He needs to resign immediately, and a full investigation needs to be undertaken.

Well, he just didn't he just do it? He said he He lists all the things he did. None of that's accurate. And he needs to resign immediately. I I don't ha I if you're this much of a stickler.

Then the one thing about people who are extremely Like they are set in the rules and they are set in these things. And if there are any mistakes, you'll be held accountable as it's across the board.

So I I was looking for the tape of his outrage when Afghanistan went down and we lost 13 soldiers to the horrible planning and all the mistakes that were made. They were pretty silent about that. And again, I don't it's not about whataboutisms, but um It to use, I think, with Senator Crowe's words: apples to oranges. Apples being in this case, thirteen soldiers losing their life. hundreds of people thousands of people's lives changed forever, not for the positive.

I don't think things are going swimmingly over in Afghanistan for the several hundreds of people that were left behind. Not supported anymore. I wonder how women's rights is going on over there. Probably not that well. But you, you.

That is a situation that should have invoked outrage across the board. Not, oh, it's in my tent, so oh, I had nothing to see here. And then again, you're seeing the same thing, but this playbook doesn't work. It was proven in this election, the last election, that Americans are no longer falling for it. You can no longer do the smokescreen stuff.

Everybody can see.

So I keep waiting for them to. Do the one thing that will help their party. And that's cooperate. work with the other side who has the best ideas right now. Why is it that every time there is an issue, if it's the twenty percent The Democrats are all over it, and the 80% is on the Republican side right now.

And it seems to me like you would think at some point you got to tip your hat to the other team. You got to say, hey, you know what? Our way is not working. Their way seems to be working. They're connecting with people.

Let's. Let's work with them because here's the thing: the people that left you. To vote. Might come back again. Uh, I'm giving advice that they're not going to listen, anyways, because they're, you know, you can't communicate.

That's another thing, you can't communicate with them because. They're always talking from a position of, if you're not like me, there's something wrong with you. And that's a and uh, I don't, you know, there was a word for that. And uh, we seem to be the new uh face of the party, of the Democratic Party. Whereas Republicans, we're willing to work with anyone.

You look at this administration, uh, There are some pretty significant people that were hardcore Democrats that are in President Trump's. Cabinet. He doesn't care what your affiliation is. He cares about can you do the job? And so when you see this is what's happening and the American people are getting behind it and they feel good about it, to go back to the old playbook to where this is worse than trying to fear monger and create scenarios to try to scare the American people.

And I just feel like it's falling on deaf ears. And at some point, someone in the Democratic Party. has to say, you know what, it's a time for me to be the adult in the room. because two good parties is good for this country. You know, President Trump has a job to do, but he's also not a dumb man.

He understands how the swamp works, and he knows that his time is short to get things done because it's only a matter of time before The right starts to fold into some of the lefts, and they start to do all the other, you know, doge starts to uncover stuff. And then all of a sudden, Republicans, we're going to see it on our side too. But this is the time to get things done. And this is the time for at least one Democrat to really look hard in the mirror and say, I was sworn in to serve my people. Are you really serving your people?

Are you serving your people by wasting time, perpetuating? We have enough things going on in the world right now that we're. We don't need made-up stories and made-up fantasy tragedies. You know, what's going on in the Middle East, and what's going on in Ukraine, like what's going on in Africa, what's going on in our own streets, what's going on in North Carolina and Tennessee and in California, all these great states that were decimated by natural disasters with little or no help. From the government.

They're still rebuilding, and we're hearing horror stories all across this country. There are things that we should be talking about. There are things that there should be senators and congressmen outraged about. There should be, why can't we see what's going on in California? How many new homes are starting to go up?

Because we're not seeing these wonderful stories. We're seeing, we're being. The news cycle is trying to be filled with this fake where you need 14 panelists to talk about what could have happened instead of talking about what is actually happening in this country right now. And I think that's the difference between the party. I think right now President Trump and the Republicans are working on real issues that you can solve or try to make better.

The other side is working in feelings. And right now, they're still caught up in their feelings and they're upset. And no matter what. The right says it's wrong, and not just wrong. It is.

It is a a literal sin against God in the entire world. And hopefully, uh Some Democrat will stand up and we'll start getting back to getting things done on both sides. Newsmakers and newsbreakers. Here at first on the Brian Kill Me Show. I'm Emily Campagno, host of the Fox True Crime Podcast.

This week, retired police chief Brian Jarvis joins me to discuss his work investigating Eileen Warnos, one of America's most notorious female serial killers. Listen and follow now at FoxtrueCrime.com. He's so busy, he'll make your head spin. It's Brian Killmead. Yep, he's apparently so busy that I had to fill in for him today, but that's right.

You got Tyrus on the Brian Kilmead show. Excited as always. Anytime I get the call, I'm like in the bullpen, just throwing around, waiting for Fox to. And you know what? It's Thursday, so you know, it's opening day, I believe.

Excited about that. I'm a die-hard Red Sock fan, and I'm very optimistic about this year. And I'm also very optimistic about the new health craze that seems to be going around this country. Everyone's trying to get fit. And.

Trim off a few pounds from back in the day or during the pandemic or the last four years of being glued to the TV set because you're trying to make sense of what has just been said to you.

So it's nice that we're all starting to get loose and doing some exercising. And I'm all for it. I'm all about that life. I've been posting it on my social media. You know, getting back into shape for me, it was about being more active with my kids, being able to, you know, life after wrestling does not mean that I just gained a bunch of weight and get old.

I still got a lot of gas left in the tank. And so I'm just doing all kinds of new workout stuff and I'm having fun with that. I'm doing some boxing stuff. Yo, start to jump in. You got a call coming in.

Uh okay. Oh. Hello? Hey, honey. I'm working.

How are you? I'm working. Well, I know, but I thought that you have a show. In Andover, Massachusetts tonight, 1,200 people are waiting to see you.

So I thought we agreed that you were not going to work this morning. No, no, no. I agreed not to work tonight. Uh but Brian asked me to fill in for him, so I'm on the radio. Oh, so when Brian asks you to do something, that's what you do.

But when your wife asks you to do something, you kind of push it to the side, as if 1,200 people aren't waiting to see you and it's a four-hour drive from where you are now. I'll be there in plenty of time. A thousand percent I'll be on time. But again, anytime I get a chance to do the radio show, I'm going to do it. And it's a great, you know, it's a great also opportunity for me to sell the show.

Wait, wait, wait. Let's use it. This opportunity now that you're playing on the radio this morning, why don't we tell them, besides your sold-out show in Andover, Massachusetts tonight, that you actually have a show in Grand Rapids, Michigan on April 3rd, East Lansing, Michigan on April 4th. You're back in Middletown, Ohio, where J.D. Vance is from on May 17th.

You have all these cities coming up that we could be telling people about since you chose to go play on the radio this morning for Bryan instead of making me comfortable and getting your bed over to Andover, Massachusetts.

Okay, again, I'm not playing. Not and not I don't play. I do. This is my job. This is work.

I'm in the bullpen. It's opening day. And Brian said, hey, can you come in and throw three innings for me on the radio show? And I just assumed that my wife would be like, yeah, you go get it. Get that dollar.

Do that. Yeah, I'm super supportive about it. As long as you also talk about the stuff that I do.

So like you're going to be in Omaha on July 11th, Concordia, Kansas, July 13th. I mean, I could keep going because you have to be on your link tree. 1,000%. Where is it again? It's on my link tree, right?

Yes, it's on your link tree. That's going to be the safest, most effective, and affordable way to get your tickets. Awesome. Listen, I was talking about health stuff before you were. Yeah.

We're talking about it? To you. to America. And um You know, because I don't know if you've noticed, but I've slimmed down a lot of Yes, you look great. Thank you.

Appreciate that. Having said that, You I had a guest to talk about Uh, health and fitness and nutrition, and you know, especially what's going on with RFK Jr., but uh, they are no longer uh here because you called during the time that I was supposed to speak to them.

So I was meant to be then. Or that's that's one way to put it. Uh since you're here Ah, and I need a guest. To talk about health, and it just so happens that I believe you are a master trainer in nutrition. Exper well, dictator because um Well, that's the reason you have not previously asked for my opinion when other people are in earshot, because I'm a little blunt about it.

Like, as a mom of three and someone who lost 150 pounds naturally, the hard way, diet and exercise. I am a little harsh about it. Like, we have a type one diabetic son who is only 5% of diabetics are type 1. He did not do it to himself. There's absolutely no way he can cure himself.

He's dependent on insulin for the rest of his life. And to see so many Americans being type two and pre-diabetic, even children now, it's really frustrating as a mom. Cause I'm like, our kid cannot fix himself. It's autoimmune. His pancreas is dead.

He can't cure himself. And all these people are walking around and they can actually fix their problem. And it's really through movement and how they eat. And it's frustrating. And so, yeah, I'm like really blunt about things like that.

And you say, I don't sugarcoat. coat things well enough. No kind of term that I would use. Yes, you do not sugarcoat anything, not even when sugar is. Probably the main topic.

Yeah, like get a cookie or ice cream and stuff. Um, like I said, that was a difficult thing for me to give up. Uh, because of comfort food. Do you think um With RFK Jr. taking over and his commitment to food being healthy again, or at least giving people the information, do you think it's.

Something that if people have the healthy option with the actual information, they'll take it in? Or do you think we're just. Too far gone with the sugar addiction? Because it's a little bit of both. I mean, obviously, we are too far gone, and it's.

Mostly the sugar, but it's also other chemical ingredients they're putting in food that make us addicted and never satisfied.

So it is an addiction, it is a problem, it's going to be really, really difficult. But you start with the children. And so, one of the things I'm really happy they're doing, and I've said all along, is that the food stamps and the EBT, I am not someone who's opposed to that. Like, I do believe that parts of all of our lives, whether we're sick or we're struggling with a job or whatever, we should all be allowed at some point to use that benefit when needed for a short term. The problem is, as someone who did use it for about a year when my children were very, very little before I met you, is that it's a lot of money they give you, and you can buy whatever the heck you want.

I was shocked. You can buy any junk food you want, but you know, if you try to buy a protein bar, you can't. See, and that's Blunt truth with my wife Ingrid. Thank you so much, honey. I'm going to go back to work now.

Information you want, truth you demand. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. Have they figured it out that the identity piece of this is more important than the actual substance behind it?

Well, they've been doing it for decades. I mean, we've saw the Welfare Queens, they've seen the Southern Strategy, we've seen it over and over. It's an old playbook, and we're as dumb as we want to be that we allow them to do this with CRT and ESG and DEI and every three-letter word. Yeah, demonize and they weaponize grievance, they other people, they talk down to people, past people, they humiliate people, they weaponize difficult issues. But the bottom line is, and I think it goes back to what we began with, is and I applaud you for this, is we cannot continue to be on the defense reacting to this.

We've got to go on the offense, we've got to meet people where they are. But I also think this, and this is where, you know, this is part of the kind of conversation I'm trying to have. is you gotta respect people you disagree with. Even and you can't just dismiss And you fight it. It's it well, this this makes it kick most of their ass.

I do think that I know I can wrong, but I d I don't know if we're gonna fall into that place where we wanna okay, we challenge you to uh do a uh you know, a a WWE fight here type of thing. Man, boy did that start a party. Um Joining me today, always an honor and a pleasure. When anytime I get to Speak to Mr. Mayor Glenn Jacobs, aka Kane, but uh It's funny when two worlds come together, isn't it, sir?

So It absolutely. Thank you for having me on, big man. I really appreciate it.

Well, you are a, you're just becoming a little, you're over, brother. Like, you're, every time I turn to TV, I see your smiling face. Like, you are. You are definitely in the shine, sir.

Well When someone throws a fastball, well, actually, that was probably hanging curve on an 03 count right down the middle, I'm probably going to take a swing. That's what that was. You know, when that statement came out, I think I tweeted like within six seconds of seeing the interview. I was like, because I knew the line was going to be long. You know, for who's going to take this fight, right?

And then, lo and behold, when I had never known you to be a booker before, uh, and you, and uh, you know, and it's become, I'm getting asked about it, but you have taken this to the whole other next level to where it's a charity event. And then someone made me an awesome uh thing where it's a you know, the great Hall of Fame tag team, which is, of course, the Undertaker Yourself, Brothers of Destruction, uh, you know, but for one night only, brothers of Tesla in a truck. Uh, you know, I think that it might, I don't know if it's going to be as big as the mega powers, but it might be. Uh, but I just It's the things that people say, and of course, you know, we're having some fun with this, but. The responsibility from politicians It just uh it just seems like it's not there anymore.

To make these ridiculous statements, especially in light of what's happening. uh with Tesla, with uh the terrorist attacks on there. You you just you kind of miss decorum. I guess that's the word I'm looking for.

Okay. Yeah, it is uh tragic actually. And When you watch that video and you see Gavin Newsom, who is making some great points, actually, now the things that he was talking about, I would argue he's wrong. There is such a thing as CRT in our schools. Otherwise, why is it when that state governments try to ban CRT in their schools?

Oh, we're not teaching that.

Well, okay, cool.

Well, we could just ban it.

Well, you can't do that. DEI is an issue. And it's not. I mean, man, I'm all for different people. I get it.

But we need to have a meritocracy in this country. You know, you shouldn't be just treated differently because you belong to a group, right? One way or the other country. Yeah, that's how the country used to be. It was a big problem.

And now it's almost like it's swinging back the other way. And he was making some really good points. Can you imagine, can you see this face? And how he had that nervous laugh and it was like, Oh no, this thing just went completely off the rails. Yeah, I heard 'cause Tim Rawls basically ran his big mouth about something.

He he wrote a check now that there's no way he can ever cash. No, literally and figuratively. You know, and what What pains me is that it's not just Tim Waltz who's. The one thing I'm seeing is I feel like, you know, we used to get. You know, and and and not to give away too much of of the magic show that we got to be a part of, but there would be certain rules, you know, where like everyone be like, Hey, uh, don't do this tonight.

I I'm I'm gonna beat his arm up, you beat the leg. Like everyone was re had a plan or an idea because every the goal was to be an individual and be remembered. Right, because if everyone does the same thing, the guy who did the same thing the best is going to be the one who's remembered.

So now we have, instead of them going out and speaking their mind and trying to make the best statement for their constituents, now they're getting a memo with like everyone's doing the same move tonight. And it looks like the new memo says, cuss as much as you can and insult them beyond the pale of acceptance, to where even people who are. Avid cussers like myself, but I will argue it is a tapestry. Um. That, I don't think that's going to work.

I don't think it is working. You know, just for a perfect example, I'm going to listen to Jasmine Crockett here, number 18. Listen to her, you know, this comment she made about Governor Abbott. Because we in these hot ass Texas streets, honey. Y'all know we got Governor High Wheels down there.

Come on now. And and uh The only thing hot about him is that he is a hot ass mad, sonny.

So, um.

So yes, yes, yes, yes. And no, no, no, no. That was a trash statement. What bothers me. About this, it's like it's across the board.

Like, that's, I guess that's the new thing. I guess they're trying to be hip and cool. Do you think it's working? Yeah, 100% agree with you. It's funny, too, because when I was hearing those beeps, I was like, who's trying to call me?

Oh, she's cursing. Right. Yeah. I think what has happened, you're exactly right about a memo going out. And I think a memo went out among Democrat consultants and strategists that Donald Trump won the election because, and the Republicans are hot because they portray tough and strong.

Well, they are tough and strong. No matter what you might think of Donald Trump, he is a masculine dude. And they have confused style with substance. They think that just going out and saying those things and acting that way and trying to be tough and trying to be hit by dropping cuss words in formal settings, that makes them. Have that they go, go, go, right.

It's almost like If Someone were to put on a silver and black jersey and say, Hey, look at me. I'm the Oakland Raiders. I guess the Vegas Raiders now. I'm the Raiders. Yeah.

And Mm. Then you realize Yeah. Raiders had Jackson, right? These radio. the Democrats They've got Bo Derrick.

Yeah. big problem with that. Trump backs his style up with substance. That's the issue. And I think that's what hurt Tim Waltz so much was that they tried to paint this picture of him that he wasn't.

And instead, I mean, you don't have to be. A manly man to be a man. You don't have to be the guy who is an outdoorsman if you're not. There's nothing worse for a man to pretend to be something you're not. Because the American people, especially other men, will see right through it.

That hunting thing was one of the saddest displays I'd ever saw because he clearly had never held that gun before. He was completely uncomfortable. And it was like, but he was trying to portray this image that real men don't portray aggressive guys who live outdoors and an alpha male type that they were going for. You can't BS us because we see right through it. That's the whole point.

That's why guys don't have to conversate to get to know each other. You know, within the first few seconds of seeing a guy walk up to you, whether you like him or not, it's just kind of like, oh, yeah, he looks, you know, so I feel like, and now he's angry at us. For giggling at him.

Sorry, I'm giggling. Yeah, but it's true. It's true, and you're exactly right. These guys are acting as if they were. Movie stars, if they were they were T V stars, as if they're pro wrestlers, frankly, as if they're paid actors.

As if you didn't make it. And they're not. First of all, they're not very good at it. No. But second of all, yes.

You don't portray that. You are that. And people see right through it when you try to be something that you're not, especially in this day and age where social media is ubiquitous and you can't control a narrative anymore.

So they've got a real issue in that they're trying, they've alienated. Vast swaths of the population. First of all, toxic masculinity.

Well, I'm a guy. I consider myself kind of masculine. I didn't like that very much because I'm not, and I'm not an aggressive jerk. That's just I'm a guy. That's who I am.

Then you turn around and you push the transgenderism to the point now where when you look at the numbers and the self-reporting of young people who believe they're transgender has skyrocketed as a percentage compared to what it was years ago. Why is that?

Well, because we talk about it all the time and we've made it hip and cool. Then you put men in women's sports. Right? I have two daughters. My daughters are awesome.

They're very strong people. I don't want them playing volleyball or basketball or anything else against boys because physically they just can't match up. I got three daughters. That's just how we are. I got three daughters and a son.

And both my son does jiu-jitsu, and my daughter wants to do jiu-jitsu. I'm not putting her in with him. You know, it's just like you don't do it. It's just certain things you don't do. These are norms that are understood.

These aren't, these are. They're not even 2080. Debates. It's like 199. And to get on that one side of it.

And again, here's the other thing that. And this is a part of being a man. It's not just the macho stuff that they grossly inflate, it's the accountability. It's the. The best thing about a man is when he knows he's made a mistake and he's wrong and he apologizes or he goes too far.

I'm not above it. You're certainly not above it. Not every decision you've made is the right one. And when it needs correction, you'll be the first one in line to correct yourself because that's how you lead by example.

So, you know, with this Crockett situation is with calling Governor Abbott Hot Wheels, you're out of line. You were wrong. And you shouldn't have said it. It was no class, and you've said it before, and you said it again. And then.

Instead of apologizing, you try to Lie about the comment meant something else. What else could it have been? You know, was he sitting with a large collection of little Hot Wheel cars at a table? Was he an avid collector? No.

So you made the comment, and again, This is what bothers me the most about left-leaning media and mainstream media. They never call them out. The way the right way. It always has to be a compliment and a protection and a small critique. Like, listen to the view here, criticize Crockett.

And I use that word criticize loosely. Number 20. She should not have made the comment at all. You know, don't you should leave that stuff to the comedian. This was beneath her.

She's just too good for this. I agree with that because I respect her, but it's just never okay to mock someone's disability. I admire Jasmine Crockett. I do think she's an effective messenger. I think this was a mistake.

And I think when you make a mistake, you have to own it. Like it's the apologies are in the criticism. Like call her out for what you did was was classless. It was disgusting. Listen, when when President Trump made the thing where he was that p reporter was going at him and he made a little arm joke, everyone called him out and was like, Hey man, that's not cool.

You know, like you can, you can, I say things. I push the limits as a comedian sometimes. And if I go too far, I'll be the first one to say, like, hey, my bad. You know, but there's a certain level, but this wasn't a joke. This was an attempt to try to be the, you know, they got that thug memo and the F-word memo because that's the other one.

All of them say the F-word now, but it's out of context and never used in the right way.

So, you know, and I just, I feel like they push accountability, but they do not practice it at all. Yeah. 100% agree. Brother, could you imagine? Going back to walls, could you imagine if I had said that?

Oh, could you imagine if Donald Trump had said that? We would be torn apart, intimidating people, threatening violence, calling violence, exactly. But when the left does it, when the Democrats do it, you know, okay, cool. They said something they should have, but they're good people. Let's move on.

And as far as Jasmine Crockett, you know what? As a Republican, I want her to be the spokesman. Absolutely. 100%. If I was a strategist.

100%, because we will never lose an election as long as she's their spokesman. I would start booking her. Come speak at my events before I went out. Yeah, please, I'm running again. She's not even in my district, but this is what we're running against.

You know, and it's just, you know, and you make a great point. You know, could you imagine if you and like I've had issues with Facebook, who continues to run fake accounts of me and trying to fleece people out of money and bookings and romantic relationships with all these people. Apparently, fake Tyrus is a hot commodity on Facebook these days, right? But I'm upset and I'm frustrated with it. I've contacted Facebook several times.

I'm like, listen, I don't even have an account.

So there's no, you know, I don't even have a Facebook account.

So these people who are doing this, but you know what? At no time did I call for all my fans and friends and wrestling brothers to go out and vandalize Facebook buildings, or you see anyone on Facebook walk over and snatch their phone out their hand and tell them, you know, that they're a Nazi. And we're seeing with the stuff with Tesla, we're seeing this type of beautiful. Behavior that is inspiring the worst of our society to come forward and do things. And you would like to see some accountability.

And it looks like the only way you're going to get that accountability is by voting. Through the American people. Yeah, the media is not doing it. I actually sat down with the local media outlet recently to talk about the Walls match. And I said something about the attacks on Tesla, and they said, well, both sides have condemned that.

And I'm like, no, no, they haven't. There's only like one or two congressional Democrats who have said anything, and that's it. You look at the Summer of Love, city's burning, and literally you have some dude standing in front of his background is a city on fire and the ticker across the bottom is mostly peaceful protest. Fire is mostly peaceful. That's like being mostly dead.

Exactly, yes. You know, so it's actually backfiring now, though. You know, if you have if you have any common sense at all, which Americans do, the vast majority do, you can see right through this. And I think a lot of it is they're just so desperate. The Democrats are so desperate to get back in power.

The mainstream media is so desperate to have them back in power that we're literally living, and we did it in COVID too, right? We're literally living in 1984 where they're just inventing narratives. It doesn't matter what the reality on the ground is. It doesn't matter what the facts is. What the facts are.

They just say what they want to say. And the problem is, when you see the world, when you're out there and you're walking by a Tesla car that's just gotten key, or you're on the internet and you're seeing, how idiotic could you be to go up and vandalize a Tesla which has cameras on 360 degrees? That's right. You're getting filmed while you're doing it, right? But when people see that, They're automatically sympathizing with Elon Musk, so it's backfiring on them.

Yeah, I think it all is backfiring. And we have to leave it there, but I will say I think the common understanding of this is common sense, ladies and gentlemen. Common sense. And don't wear bright pants if you're going to do bad things to a Tesla. It's easier to spot you with a camera.

But, anyways, man, always a pleasure. Thank you so much for joining me. Until next time, and then I'm still training. I'll be ready when I get the call. It sounds good.

If he uh reaches out to me, you'll be the first to know.

Okay. Thanks, man. All right, again, this is Tyrus filling in for Brian Kilmead. We'll be back after these messages. It's Brian Kilmead.

And I always love anytime we get a chance to catch up with the great mayor, Glenn.

Jacobs, and you know, like I said, America, we've been going through some hard times, and they put hard times on us. Like you're a textile worker for 30 years on the job and they just kick your butt out the door for a machine. That's hard times. But the hard times are coming to an end, and we're starting to get into those good times.

So keep it positive, keep it happy, and just do the work. This is Tyrus filling in from Brian Kilmead on the Brian Kilmead Show. From the Fox News Radio Studios in Midtown Manhattan, it's the fastest-growing radio talk show. Brian. In Kill Mead.

Psych, it's Tyrus approachable. Who could be more approachable to me?

Well, I guess I have my own gravitational pull, so you have to approach me whether you like it or not. That's just my magnetic. Charisma, as I like to say. And speaking of charisma, Joining me today is the Charismatic Fox. News Radio Political Analyst.

Now that's a title. I need to get an analyst. I feel like that means you're above extra. I'm just a Fox contributor. I like to be a contributor analyst, but I will delay the suspense no more.

Josh, Crash Hour is in the house. What's up, good sir? Great to be with you. Happy opening day. That's enough to get.

Yeah, I'm excited. I mean, well, I got to be honest. I am mad at my Red Sox. I think we have a lot of great young talent, and we made some moves in the offseason, but letting our closer go, I am furious. Absolutely.

Well, that could be a hell of a division. I mean, the Yankees are injured, but they still have the Yankees Mankes. There's this big monster bird called the Orioles who are young and not going anywhere. They are. I've jumped on the O'S bandwagon as a D.C.

Baltimore guy, but they lost their best pitcher from last year.

So I'm expecting that. Yeah, but their farm system, and they got, I mean, they got guys who don't have driver's license yet. You know, like they're, listen, and the Rays are always, always tough. They're always going to not, you know, the Red Sox, again, like I said, I think I'm worried about the sophomore Jinx because we had three rookies last year. And one untraditional one, but uh, the we definitely made strides in the bullpen and some starters.

But man, I'm mad we let our guy go to the Angels. Man, I was just upset. And I'm just, oh, I know the Chapman, I just don't know, man. I just.

Well, you know, Hope Springs Eternal on opening day. It's always no losses. The rest of the season may not be quite as favorable. But yeah, it's going to be a great, great, great year, great division. I think it's going to be great for the country.

You know what was nice when I was coming in the building this morning is there was a bunch of people standing by the refrigerator, and guess what they were talking about? Opening day. Everyone was talking about their teams. You know, you had a Pittsburgh Pirate fan that had the temerity to discuss about their optimists for this season. But it's good to see that we're not talking about, oh, did you hear what happened on the news last night?

Did you hear the latest speech? It's nice to get back to stuff that just builds camaraderie and is fun to talk about, and no one walks away offended. That's right. Yeah, no, it's good. The sports at its best unite the country.

You have rivalries. You've got a lot of talk trash to all my Yankees and Philly as a Nats fans. And the Phillies are probably biggest rival to the Soto going to the Mets. It's not a great thing for us Nats fans to have to deal with. But no, I mean, it's sports bring people together.

And we could use a lot of that in Washington. Yeah, you know, and it's, yes, bringing them together because rivalry isn't even the word for some of the stuff. Let me play, let me just get this party started. Roll number nine. This is Donald Trump in the White House talking about the courts pretending that they're the president.

We're getting them out in record numbers, and we're having a lot of problems with the courts because the courts want to pretend they're president, and they're not president. They didn't get 80 million votes, and they didn't. They're not. They can't do that to this country. That's not their job.

But we're getting them out in record numbers. Again, I'm the first one for the debate. I'm the first one to try to see things from different angles. I just don't see the angle of being in opposition for getting hardened criminals who are not supposed to be in this country. To begin with, and on top of that, they entered the country illegally and they're practicing and living out their criminal dreams in this country.

I don't see the argument.

Well, this is going to go all the way to the Supreme Court. This is the appeals court yesterday, including one George W. Bush appointed judge, agreed with it that was one of the two judges on a three three seat uh three court uh majority to uh rule against the White House. You know, look, I I the big question is about due process. And politically, I think Trump has the wind at his back.

People elected him because he promised to be tougher on illegal immigration, to seal up the border, to to make that a major issue in a way that you didn't see President Biden prioritizing at least until the very end of his administration. The thing that I think it could could flip up the the Trump administration, and this is what the courts are are dealing with now, is that some of the people from Venezuela that apparently were deported to El Salvador, that that notorious prison, apparently didn't have any criminal records and were actually here legally on humanitarian visa, humanitarian for humanitarian reasons, and they were legally here in the country.

So if it turns out that that The claims that these were members of a gang were not true, and then they misrepresented the case in front of the courts. That's what could get them in trouble at the highest court in the land down the road.

So, look, I think politically you're right. Like, this is one of the big issues why Trump got elected, and I didn't give a lot of running room. To deal with illegal immigration and people here in this country illegally. But if you make mistakes, if you don't. You know, you're not honest or make you misrepresent things at the court, that could get you in trouble.

And that's why, you know, you got these checks and balances going on. And the fight that we're hearing from the president, we're hearing from the courts are really much in full swing right now.

Well, you know, and here's the thing. And since you brought up Christy Noam, let's roll number 10 and have you respond to this, which I think falls in line with basically what you've been talking about. Do you guys have plans to send more TDA members to? the prison we visited today and how long are they going to stay there for? You know, I think that is one of the discussions we'll continue to have.

The President today indicated that he would be open. to working with us in the future. On still continuing to receive TDA members and MS-13 members, and so we are grateful for that. Again, when, and I understand what you're saying, like if the wrong, if there was a mistake made, but That's the process, because I'm sure once they are apprehended and they're brought back, you know, and And they're in that situation. Then they can get lawyers and stuff like that, or they can find out, or they can prove themselves.

But I feel like that's such a small percentage. It's a little hard to tell me if you got a MS13 on your forehead that you're probably not MSN13. And like I said, they've been surveillance, there's been investigation, these guys are on the wanted list.

So I think they are taking the steps. And if there is a mistake, Which happens in all forms of law. There are things, you know, I was wrongly once pulled over for speeding. But those mistakes can be corrected. I think the bigger problem is allowing the whole as a mass to continue going on.

I mean, we basically had millions and millions of undocumented people that we have no idea who they are, where they're from. And in a lot of cases, we're seeing these are some pretty bad individuals.

Well, and look, that's the great thing about having a judicial branch, having courts, because you have to back your claims up in a court. You can't just spin. You have to actually say these actually were members of that criminal gang that is notorious and should be, the administration should be aggressively trying to remove people. I mean, they just had a big success, by the way, today that they claim that they got a very in Northern Virginia.

So, I mean, those are good things. As long as it's true and as long as that's the case, these are going to be big political wins for the White House. Where they're going to get in trouble, though, is again, the great thing about the courts is that you have to back your arguments up with evidence. And that's the challenge they've been facing so far. They've been claiming that most of these people are members of this notorious gang, but we're now learning in court and we're learning through other reporting that these actually people had tattoos, but they didn't have any gang tattoos.

They actually missed. misidentified some of this stuff.

So that's what you don't want when you're dealing with something so serious. Deporting people to a notorious El Salvadorian prison where you saw the images with Christy Noam. You don't want to go there if you're wrongly accused of the protection. No, and that has merit. But I also think that regardless of whether you're a criminal or not, if you entered the country illegally, you should be deported across the board.

And that's where you let the process play itself out and corrections will be made. But I feel like there's such a double standard. Like if an American commits a small crime, they're like, oh, he needs to pay for his crime, and forgets to pay a ticket on a suspended driver's license and has a warrant. And they're like, well, it was just a suspended driver's license.

So there's like this, but where entering the country illegally. And they're like, well, you know, there's worse things. But I think if you're. Following the law, you need to follow the law, period.

So when I hear, again, you don't want to be mistaken, it ended up in Guantanamo Bay. I 1,000% believe that. But I also think that you could also figure it out from over there, too. It doesn't have to be just letting people roam. If you're under suspicion and you've already have this probable cause because you've already entered the country illegal, I still think you should be deported.

And I think you should make things better for the people who are doing it the right way. Yeah, no, and look, I think that was one of the criticisms of the Biden administration, which is they did not prioritize deporting people who were here in the country illegally, and that's what the American public wanted. I think the one thing, though, about some of the people who may have been sent to El Salvador at this prison is that they actually, many of them allegedly were here legally as part of receiving humanitarian status. They were escaping communism, a really evil regime in Venezuela. They actually, some of them, not all of them, but some of them we now know have potentially, reportedly at least, been here legally, at least under these protection laws in our country.

So that's another thing that the courts have to sort out. But if they were here legally, at least under a humanitarian status, Um that that's a difference than being here illegally and just crossing the border and and and breaking the laws. But I think in being proactive in enforcing the laws that should have been enforced for the last four years, you'll be able to make that determination and figure out who's who and what's what in the process of it. And unfortunately, there's always going to be an exception to the rule. But I don't think the exception should be considered the norm.

I guess that's my argument. Nothing was done for four years, so maybe it's a little tighter in the beginning while you figure out what's what and who's who and how many numbers we're dealing with. What is the situation? Because you can't have situations like what happened in Colorado, where happened in New York City, where you basically had Venezuelan gangs just setting up shop. And you don't want gangs, anyways, American gangs or foreign gangs, but if you can eliminate the ones that shouldn't even be here, then I think you should.

Well, and the Supreme Court is going to get a big bite out of this apple. Yeah, I'm very interested to see how this plays out. Kavanaugh, Coney Barrett, those are going to be swing votes on on on a case like this.

So that's going to be there's going to be a big showdown at the Supreme Court. And I imagine we're all going to be following that closely when it gets to that point.

Well, let me ask you real quick before I have to let you go, because I'm always fascinated to hear the your thought process. Rule number twelve. for me. Uh this is Boston's mayor. No one tells Boston how to take care of our own.

Not kings, and not presidents who think they are kings. All over the country, people are feeling the weight of. of a federal administration that's attacking our sources of strength. the same people and purpose that make Boston great. Yeah, I No one tells Boston how to take care of our own.

That's the laws tell you how to take care of your own. Uh I I just that type of rhetoric uh Again, we're not going to cooperate with The federal government with the president. I just feel like it's irresponsible. You can have a difference of opinion, but. Breaking the law or just flat out saying we refuse to cooperate.

How does that help anyone? Yeah, well, that's interesting. That's Michelle Wu, the mayor of Boston, very progressive mayor. She's interestingly enough in the middle of a campaign against another Democrat who happens to be the son of the New England Patriots owner, Bob Kraft. Oh, God.

So, as a politics guy, I'm following that race pretty closely. I'm in it now. Yeah. And as a Pat, I'm actually a Pats fan. Yeah, so am I.

So, Ellen, because you're not getting wins anytime soon, so this will be interesting. But he's running as a Democrat, who's a more moderate Democrat, especially on Some of the issues, like, like, you know, she's definitely on law and order issues, on criminal justice issues. She's definitely very much to the left, and it's taken a lot of peep for that. She's a strange bird because when I say that, like, she threw a Christmas party where she said no white people were allowed, and her husband's white. Yeah, like it's just weird.

Like, does anyone not think it through? I mean, did you see you? I'm sure you saw the NPR hearing on Capitol Hill yesterday where the craziness, the wokeness of like that moment in time in 2020, 2020, that was coming back to bite these people who were just drinking the Kool-Aid, and all of a sudden, the reality is. Kind of reestablish itself. And you're seeing that in cities, too.

A lot of left-wing mayors, you know, Chicago, I know Brandon Johnson has like a 6% job approval rating. The left-wing progressive mayor in San Francisco got ousted. You're seeing this in deep blue cities across the country. Andrew Cuomo trying to make a comeback in New York. You know, this is a real test for whether they're moderates of the Democratic Party.

And Josh Kraft is one of them. But there are a lot of other folks that are saying enough is enough. We need more moderation. Do you think this is a moment for common sense, moderate Democrats to regain a hold on the party? Or is just progressive in the mainstream media just too in love with the progressives?

Because their new memo, the F-word memo that's out, with them all cussing, all of a sudden, miraculously, they all start. Cussing, and it's always out of context, and it's not smooth. Like, cussing is an art form, as a guy who cusses. It's so inauthentic, too. It's kind of embarrassing, right?

Look, this is a moment for the party. They need to figure out who they are. They're in a disarray. They don't know whether they want to go left, they want to go to the center. There are smoke signals, though, in these cities where they've been badly governed, crime's out of control, you've got a lot of disorder, and moderates are trying to make a comeback.

And if someone like an Andrew Cuomo wins in New York City, if Brandon Johnson gets ousted in Chicago and they get more moderate leaders, that might be the first step they need to take to show that they can actually govern and lead effectively. Yeah, like, how can you be less popular than Lori Lightfoot? I mean, that's hard to do. Yeah, you never, as a pessimist, I you never ex Expect that you can always hit further rock bottom. Yeah.

That's what Chicago voters have quickly learned.

Well, and again, I just. Because you need two strong parties to have good checks and balances, but you would like to have a connection of common sense. And at least on top of what I think Bill Maher coined the phrase eighty twenty issues, Isn't that an opportunity for moderate Democrats to be like, listen. The adults are back in the room and uh Because right now I feel like the Democratic Party is a party of activists. Yep.

And not necessarily part of the the politicians or the moderates. They they they've kind of just uh been submerged, you know. I guess it would be like if the Tea Party completely took over the Republican Party. Yeah, no, and you're seeing this battle take place between AOC and Chuck Schumer. And I'm actually sort of surprised that it seems like Democrats are going after Schumer now as a sign that they're willing to fight and that they're going to the left.

And Schumer's no moderate. He's pretty liberal himself.

So I think they're going to be these little. Battled and as part of the larger war within the Democratic Party, if they go further left as a response to President Trump, they're going to marginalize themselves and only hurt their political prospects. I think it is, I think, in the cities, though, they have hit rock bottom in certain cities so much though that it's actually created the opportunity for the middle to find itself and fight back. You haven't seen that in Congress. Democrats will haven't gotten that memo.

No, and you're seeing it in California.

So, but unfortunately, we got to leave it there. I ran out of time because, like I said, I could listen to this politician talk all day long, and I appreciate your time. Thank you so much for joining us today. And again, this is Tyrus filling in for Brian Kilmead on the Brian Kilmead Show. We'll be back after this.

You're with Brian Kilmead. Every idea starts with a problem. Warby Parker's was simple: glasses are too expensive.

So they set out to change that. By designing glasses in-house and selling directly to customers, they're able to offer prescription eyewear that's expertly crafted and unexpectedly affordable. Warby Parker glasses are made from premium materials like impact-resistant polycarbonate and custom acetate. And they start at just $95, including prescription lenses. Get glasses made from the good stuff.

Stop by a Warby Parker store near you. A talk show that's real. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. What it is, this is Tyrus filling in for Brian Kilmead on the Brian Kilmead show, and we keep it real, even if keeping it real goes wrong. But so far today, we've been on the right course, other than, you know.

What's going on in the world today, and again, it's been we've gone through some hard times, and uh, we're turning those hard times to good times, and we just got to respect the process. We see good things coming, and uh, the opposition is going to be what it is. But understand, if they don't come with ideas and they don't come from a place where they're trying to improve the situation or make or at least give us a different way of looking at things, then they're really not trying to help.

So, just stay the course, enjoy yourselves, do more hobbies, do more exciting things, go outside and play. And speaking of going outside and play, coming up next, I'm having uh Station Madden coming on from Beacon Hills, where my daughter is learning all things equestrian.

So, you definitely got to stay tuned for that. I'm a horse dad, and that's another reason why I'm here because I need horse money.

So that's why I'm filling in from Brian Kilmeat today on the Brian Kilmeat show. If you're interested in it, Brian's talking about it. You're with Brian Kilmead. Well, you're kinda with Brian Killmead. You're with Tyrus.

As I am filling in for the big B-reel today. And I'm excited to have my guest on right now, Stacia Madden, who is the owner and head trainer of Beacon Hill Stables, where my daughter is learning the equestrian life. And I'm learning the Life of a horse dad, and it is an exciting one.

So, thank you so much for being with us this morning. Thank you for having me. Oh, always a pleasure.

Okay, there you go.

So, right now, you are, first of all, coach, as I like to call you, thank you for taking this time this morning.

Now, you are in the thick of the equestrian season right now in Wellington, Florida, correct? Yes, there are a couple of circuits that go on during the winter, and we chose to do the Wellington season, and it's a three month long circuit down here in Wellington, Florida.

So, what is that like for and then you're a native, uh, you're not, you don't live in Florida now for the sport of uh Equestrian hunter jumpers and jumpers and equitation. What is that like basically being on the road for three months? I mean, there's no, is there any breaks to go home, or you just, you're just there? It's kind of turned into a lot of people have turned into having places to stay down in Florida because the circuit has gotten so long. It didn't used to be quite this long.

It started off being an eight week circuit, and it's just kind of grown over time.

So I'm lucky in the fact that now that I spend four months down here, that I have a home down here. But I am getting looking forward to starting to heading back to New Jersey. But I think when you are an equestrian and you're traveling and you're used to going to all these competitions, you always start looking forward to whatever the next event is.

So now that we're getting ready to leave Florida and head back to New Jersey, we'll start looking forward to the next events that are on our calendar.

So I have seen, as a father of a daughter, I have seen the change in my daughter since she's. Started this, and I call it a lifestyle almost as a sport because I see it transcending so many things. The discipline, uh, Being on time, you know, everything. You guys have a a pretty solid dress code. I know sometimes other girls are like, Oh, what color jacket are you going to wear?

And my daughter's like, We only wear. The required jacket is black or navy blue. That's it. Traditional, yeah. Yes.

And I love that. And I think, do you think the. The traditions that we've kind of laxed on in this country a little bit? Is it refreshing to me to see it? And how are you able to, with this, you know.

Growing trend of lightning rules and lightning, you know, softening up on stuff. How are you able to maintain that? I think the riding is so character building for the horses because there are so many negative influence on kids these days between the media and pop culture and politics. And somehow, when they get with their horse, Because the horses need consistency and they need patience and they need dedication. It really helps kids.

kind of prioritize their Emotions, their life, and these horses become dependent on the kids, but the kids also. learn a lot from the horses. The horses are kind of a reflection of what the rider is telling them.

So The life lessons that you're talking about, I think, are very real, and I think the kids do come away with a a tremendous amount of self-confidence. with the bond with their horse. And, you know, the one thing I've noticed is it's, I would definitely say it's a. Woman dominated sport. And I think that's a good thing.

And I like that there's starting to be light shining on it, and there seems to be a lot of interest because America wants to get back outdoors and back outside. If you could give advice for someone who was looking to get their daughter or son, for that matter, into the Equestrian world because it is such a a from what I'm seeing, just it's like building little gentlemen and little ladies again. It's just it's very respectful. I love the uniforms. What advice would you give a family that was starting to want to get information about getting into this sport?

I would say for sure, you see a lot of female riders at the age that your daughter is riding right now. Interestingly enough, in Europe, it's pretty much male dominated.

So I would say whether it's male or female, It's a very good sport to introduce children to. Really the bond starts early, you know, just Learning how to take up-down lessons at a local facility that you can find that introduces some. very basic riding lessons or there are summer camps that Have horseback riding as part of their camp, and a lot of relationships for these. Kids that have become equestrians have started at a very basic level at a summer camp or riding at a carnival or being at a dude ranch. and the kids take to the relationship of the horse.

And then it grows into them wanting to spend more and more time. And then the parents ultimately end up finding themselves. At an operation like Beacon Hill, when the kids want to take that relationship to another level and start showing and competing. You know, one of the things that I 'Cause I I when I am there, whenever I uh you or one of your uh wonderful training staff go to coach my daughter, I always walk away because it's like that's between player coach and I don't I don't need to be a part of that. But one of the things that I do like about you is sometimes the girls get a little obsessed with ribbons, you know, and you're and you had a great line.

Like, ribbons, I'm not concerned with. It's the process that I'm concerned with. Are you getting better? Are you not making the same mistakes? And I thought that was such an awesome, coachable moment.

And at the same time, that philosophy, again, is kind of an old school philosophy. Where did you come up with that philosophy on teaching them it's more about being better every time necessarily than I think it's more about just watching the growth between The horse and the rider, because the rider is giving all the instruction to the horse. The horse isn't able to look at the course, walk the course, hear the trainer.

So the writer is trying to figure out how to build this relationship. And I'm always watching that relationship grow. And when I see this moment in the show ring where they've come together, regardless of the ribbon or the outcome, It's what we're working towards, and it's what that rider actually ultimately ends up feeling.

So you're right. I do say you're not putting ribbons on the tack room, you're trying to learn. and and grow and build a relationship with your horse. And I think that's why most of the kids get into this sport. If they were just purely competitive, They could be doing a lot of different sports, but they're loving the relationship about how do I work with this animal that has a brain of its own and emotions of its own, and how do I crack that code.

and get into there and work with that.

Well, you speak with so much passion, and I love that. When were you always into horses? Was it something that was as a child? It was just you were drawn to it. What was your connection that has.

Basically, been your life's work building Beacon Hilda to what it is today. I grew up in Indiana down the street from a farm where my best friend had. Chickens, horses, goats, cows, and we would go on pony rides. And it was my mother who said, you know, if you're going to be around horses, maybe you should learn how to actually be around them.

So I went to a local stable. started taking my up-down lessons. And I was that kid that was afraid to canner and would go into the center of the ring when it was time to canner. And the instructor said, you know, if you get your own pony one day, it'll probably build that relationship. And for my seventh birthday, I ended up getting a a pony And The rest is kinda history.

It just took on a life of its own after that. You know, some of the, like, I had to learn because I thought I knew horses. Like, I thought it was walk, trot, gallop. And then I learned that word canner.

So some of the people at home are like, what's a canner? It's like, it's not quite a run, and it's not really a jog. It's like a. It's a slow run? Is that the best way to describe it?

So we're in show jumping and in Dressage, they've got different gaits because the horses don't jump. But in show jumping, it's we use the terms walk, trot, canter for the different gates of the horse. and they have different beats. But we're using the canner to facilitate the jumping. And it also turns into a gallop when you're doing jump-off.

But it's basically talking about the balance of the horse to be able to make this four legged creature be able to navigate these jumping obstacles with a rider on their back. Yeah, it's like they have a rhythm. It's almost like a good song. You know, like uh I always when I watch my daughter jump or when I watch, you know, we go and watch the pros watch. I think literally every uh night we're there, she's obsessed.

And uh, you know, she keeps a little scorecard and and we've been um trying to pick who's the winner and she's actually been on fire as she picked the last two. Winners at the show. It's interesting that you talk about the rhythm because when you're coaching kids in the very beginning of their career, a lot of coaches will talk about counting. when their kids are cannering. To be able to help establish that rhythm, because that's mainly what we're talking about.

is finding that rhythm and helping the horse. find their their perfect balance. We call it self-carriage. Yeah, it's very, like I said, it's very cool. You know, another thing is that I've learned a lot in the.

It's been over a year, a little over a year since April since. Um, my daughter got involved, but I a lot of people don't know the opportunities that also come from this because sometimes people just um they live in their own bubble and they don't like this is a great opportunity for girls to go to college, this is an opportunity for girls to travel over the world, uh, there's an opportunity to go pro. I mean, I had no idea the level of opportunities that are there. Um For this, like, you know, we always hear about the NFL and, you know, the NBA and all the mainstream sports, but someone can have, and yourself included, someone can have an amazing career. Uh In the equestrian world, and I did not know how far-reaching it was.

I was actually shocked by that, and I was surprised that more people don't know how many opportunities can come arise from. getting involved in this sport. I think the colleges that have the D1 writing really has opened a lot of doors for kids. They used to think that when they were done with their junior years, when they would turn 18, that writing was kind of over for them and it was a very difficult transition when they went to college. And now that college offers these.

brought in teams. And these kids are getting full scholarships and partial scholarships and being treated just like the D1 athletes. It's really helped bridge the gap for them to keep horses in their lives and also to continue it through school. And I think the colleges have realized that horses build good kids. They've learned about leadership and And they've learned about you know, their pe uh time management, their peers.

There's so much that goes along with it, and I think it carries right over into college. What kids do with it after college. They can go a lot of different ways. Like you said, turning pro, staying in the industry. I was thinking about that turning me into because one of the things that my daughter does now is she goes to walk her course.

And those people who know, like before when they jump, they're allowed to walk the course and see the angles. And her with her trainer, they'll adjust, they'll strategize and they'll come back.

So now she tracks every route. If I don't drive the exact same route, From The arena to the house, she will correct me. Like, you're not on the right trail, you got to go right here. Then you go left here. I said, Listen, you're not jumping me right now.

Okay, like, but it's but the attention to detail, like she has a pattern, a track in the house from the bathroom to the kitchen to this. And I'll be like, What are you doing? She's like, I'm like, these are my paths, these are my patterns. And it's so cool to see that I no longer have to, or her mom no longer has to be like, Hey, make your bed or organize this and that. I was there last week, and she had like something on the side of her boot, and I was like, Oh, that's not bad.

And she's like, No, no, it's bad. And then she. Shined and cleaned her boots before she went, and she was just quote flatting that day. That's like a practice when you would do a horse or whatever. But I just, and I, and it's across the board.

You know, there's not like a messy kid in the barn. You know, I just like, I cannot believe, and everyone's like very, everyone's well spoken, very respectful. You know, you don't, you don't see a lot of the things that we have problems with kids in school today with like phones and stuff, or you know, they got the headphones on. Like, everyone's interacting, engaging, and it's a really awesome thing to see. Where do you Where would you like to see the sport going in the next, you know, Four years given this burst of everyone trying to get back outdoors and getting active.

Um I mean, I think that's one of the lovely things about our sport is we are working with animals. We've got passion. We're outside. We get to travel. And these kids are getting to work with coaches And it can turn into a lifelong Asking for them.

So It's not necessarily where the sport's going to go. It's kind of where each rider wants to take it. But the fact that you can go all the way to the Olympics and you can still continue to do it when you're in school and college and then even when you graduate and become an amateur. I just love the pathway that Riders can take it as far as they want to.

Well, and like I said, I'm seeing it firsthand, and I thank you for your time today. And again, you guys still are finishing up strong in Florida and Wellington, and then you got some big events, I think, in Kentucky and Michigan coming up.

So you guys are getting ready. Like you said, you're always looking to the next jump. Of course, best of luck and wishes to you. And again, thank you so much for a very cool interview. Yes, ma'am.

And we'll be right back after this. Learning something new every day on the Brian Kilmead Show. Radio that makes you think. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. Hi, Tyrus back filling in for Be Real.

And, you know, since we're talking about marinating, marinating on this note, I got a chance, like I said, to talk into a station madman. One of my daughters rides equestrian and plays soccer. My son plays baseball and Wrestles and does his customization. My other daughter plays basketball and is in drama. My other daughter just rolling out plays softball and swims and plays an instrument.

And I think it's important that we all get back to getting our kids outside off the tablets, get back on that crunchy green stuff called grass, enjoy a little sun on your face, and start getting back to the parks and getting back to playing little leagues and just let's take. The outdoors back, America. Let's get active. You know, let's get off the cow. I'm doing, you know, I'm doing my thing.

I'm watching what I eat. I'm training hard because I want to be around to chase my kids. And I think we need to get we've had a rough six years, and I think we need to really start pushing that.

So I have one rule in my house: simple. Either you find get in something or I'll find it for you. And they usually will find something before I have to.

So, you know, and myself, you know, the same thing. Like, I'm practicing what I preach. I'm back in the gym, not for like 15, 20 minutes. I'm in there for two hours. I had to get up way earlier from my schedule, watching what I eat.

My good friend Mike Bell got me on some cool protein stuff that's all cow organs.

So take that, vegans. And just taking and embracing getting back outdoors again, you know, going for walks. And I cannot impose upon you how much going for a walk will really help you figure things out or ride your bike or do whatever. But let's get back outside and let's get our kids outside because busy kids are happy kids or smart kids. And now that's just something for you to marinate on from.

From, you know, I think I say my name enough, and I don't have a last name for a reason because it's plain and simple. Just tell it like it is, not how they want it to be, and that's why they call me Tyrus. Enough said. From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City, always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kilmead.

Remix, remix. You know, it's not Brian Killmead, it's Tyrus in the house. Filling in. For the little big guy. I'm excited today because I'm getting ready to sit down and talk, do a little politicking.

Talking about the what-nots and the have-nots and the ongoings of what's Going on these last few crazy days in the media with my esteemed colleague, Griff Jenkins. What it is, Griff? Thanks for joining me today. Hey, what's going on, Tyrus Man? I love having you in the Kill Mead chair.

Listen, there's no news in Washington. I don't know what you talk about. We've been so bored around here, nothing to talk about. We never hear from the President. Oh, wait, no, I forgot.

That was the last administration. Here, we are literally not sleeping or eating, Tyrus. It's crazy in DC right now. It's like l in every way, it's like drinking from a fire hose every day. Wow.

I'm just going to, you know, I'm with Greg Gutfeld on this. This is not a story. This is This is like uh it's a winery. You know, it's like this the signal war plans, or now they're attack plans and now they're assault plans. But like blowing this out of proportion.

And what way let me play this here with number one, with Donald Trump in the White House on the signal and accountability.

Well, I don't know about downplaying. The press upplays it. I think it's all a witch hunt, that's all. I think it's a witch hunt. I wasn't involved with it.

I don't I wasn't there. But I can tell you the result is unbelievable. It just he's I don't understand. What At what point do you realize I mean, like, I get it, I guess Wild E. Coyote never got it with a Roadrunner.

But I just at what point do they look and be like, this is not the way to make things better?

Well You know, listen. Yeah. Let me step back for a second. I've been in this town since the mid 90s. And what we have had for the last thirty years Is the bureaucratic status quo that has not served the American people well?

And over those three decades, that frustration across partisan lines, both Democrats and Republicans, the government became bloated, ineffective, and the American people got frustrated. And that's the essence of what Donald Trump tapped into. And having those four years off, he realized he would come back with an agenda in an administration to attack it in every way, from Doge and Musk cutting the waste, fraud, and abuse. Two-putting people like Pete Hexeth, who you and I know very well as friends, that is a committed warfighter whose heart is more dedicated to the warfighter ethos than any previous defense secretary we've had. That's why he's in the job.

And your point about it being all to do about nothing. Look, I think there is fair criticism. About important details being shared on Signal. But we also need to acknowledge, as President Trump is kind of trying to indicate, that Signal is commonly used. And that's why you saw CIA Director testifying saying the thing was loaded on my computer when I got the job, because they do use it.

And so this may be something to examine and look into. And it could be, obviously, that this should not have gone the way it did in terms of Pete Secretary Hegseth sharing an update as he defended while he was on the ground in Hawaii yesterday. But at the end of the day, it does simply overlook the fact that we are successfully wiping out the Houthis right now, and there was no major disaster like the withdrawal of Afghanistan. And so you have to step back and look at: is this new approach? Of finally doing things differently, working.

And, you know, if you're a results-oriented person, and I think most Americans are, you're getting the positive result.

Now, there will be, I think, appropriate time to Monday morning quarterback and look into, and you're going to have, obviously, the White House is putting this investigation on how this happened and what needs to change. But I do think that you're onto something about this being blown out of proportion, but yet this is Washington, and this is the only area that the Democrats seem to have had any opportunity to try to legitimately criticize the administration.

So they're leaning in, and you're going to hear and continue to see everybody calling for hexeth resignation and people should be held accountable, et cetera, et cetera. And see, that's the thing that, and I'm fine with that. And I agree, there should be criticism. fair. But when you start, you know, Pete, I thought he took it head on.

And again, again, this is new for them because we had four years of you would have somebody with a notebook telling you that they will get back to you, or that, or someone before that, said they'd circle back to you. But they never really did get back to us. Let me pay them before Pete here. He makes to support what basically you just said, Pete, I think he's just put it out perfectly. Nobody's texting war plans.

Well I noticed this morning Out came something that Doesn't look like war plans. And as a matter of fact, they even changed the title to attack plans. Because they know it's not war plans. There's no units. No locations.

No routes. No flight paths, no sources. No methods, no classified information. I mean, that's a pretty Explanation. Then you had Mike Waltz says, I take full responsibility for it.

The president talked about it, said they're working on it and make sure it doesn't happen again. I feel the criticism is fair, but I also it feels it matches the response. I think the response matches the criticism. I I don't I don't see the, you know, oh, we need to get somebody fired over this. Yeah, no, and look, at the end of the day, you know, this is a signal mishap.

This is not a national security disaster. And one thing that's worth noting that doesn't get enough attention is that Caroline Levitt stands every day at the White House podium and will take constant questions about it and try and reiterate and explain the White House position in 17 different ways for my fellow reporters to understand. And President Trump also talks to the press every day, it seems like, in the White House and will give his position. And so we're getting, you know, this transparency that they promised to address what, as you point out, is justified criticism, but they're taking it head on in Hexeth as well, taking it head on. And now we're now this whole incident has turned into a bit of a semantic battle on whether this Atlantic editor Goldberg, who is Openly anti-Trump in so many previous instances.

Fully understands war plans and attack plans and what this was and what it wasn't. And so that's why you've got the White House in a transparent effort trying to define: okay, let's talk about that. Here's what this is. But at the end of the day, it keeps arriving back at the same place, which is. Is it a signal mishap?

Yes. Is it a national security disaster? It doesn't seem that that's the case by any casual observer looking at the facts. You know, uh and again to your To acknowledge, since I won't say to your point, to acknowledge what you had just said earlier, they are all taking it head on. Marco Rubio is addressing it, and then here's number six, Caroline Levitt, giving a pretty solid explanation.

Why are Launch times on a mission strike classified. Again, I would defer you to the Secretary of Defense's statement he put out this morning. There were various reasons he listed things that were not included in that messaging thread that were not classified. And again, going back to the American public, do you trust the Secretary of Defense who was nominated for this role, voted by the United States Senate into this role, who has served in combat, honorably served our nation in uniform? Or do you trust Jeffrey Goldberg, who is a registered Democrat and an anti-Trump sensationalist reporter?

I mean, that's pretty much uh Clear, concise. I again, I don't understand. The game plan. I guess that's my issue. I know they, oh, here, something that also they've done is they've decided to add cussing.

To their sp like they had a m everything they do is all everyone does it at the same time.

So it's one person, there's one person pulling the strings. Uh probably the person who's run the country for the last four years. It's unbelievable. The cussing. Look, I grew up in the South.

I grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, and I can't tell you how many times as a kid, Tyrus, that I heard from my sweet mother, William Griffin Jenkins, you say one more cuss word, I'm going to wash your mouth out with soap. Yet, here we are today, and Democrats on any given day are blasting expletives that it's clearly become part of the messaging plan, I guess, for shock value.

Now, in fairness, I'm not going to deny that I am very given to blurting out expletives, particularly when our stressful, crazy jobs meet challenges. But I don't think it's working. And another thing that Levitt was saying, Caroline Levitt was saying yesterday at the White House. is that this story proves that Democrats Are basically orchestrating a campaign against the White House just because they want to, because they're doing it. And you have to wonder what good does that serve the country, particularly when it's got F-bombs all throughout it.

I think ultimately, at the end of the day, what's going to be interesting to watch. Terrace is How long the Democrats lean in to the fallout and try and make this a four, five, two-week-day story as opposed to, you know, while Democrats today are going to scream about the signal thing and try and turn up the volume, you're going to have a press conference with the Attorney General and the FBI director about capturing the top NS-13 leader on the East Coast. You've got Secretary of DHS, Secretary Christy Noam, standing in front of dozens of violent, tattooed gang members in El Salvador saying, Don't come, otherwise, we're going to put you here. And it's like this administration is just going to keep charging forward, delivering wins, while the Democrats are going to try and hang on to anything they can and try and discredit and, you know, Okay. make a a misinformation campaign, as the White House says, against against the the the various cabinet secretaries and ultimately the Trump administration's agenda.

You know, and there's the thing. I am and I cuss a lot. I even cuss on TV. Like, I'm, I would say that I have a tapestry for it, like, in how an artist paints on a canvas, my use of cuss words. But there's levels to the game.

If you don't cuss, and then all of a sudden you're using the queen mother word. You know, and It's just People are like, what? If you're not good at cussing, you shouldn't cuss. There's ways to cuss. There's a style to it.

There's a flair because it can be something that can add, you know, it's like adding glitter or seasoning to your hell. Yes, brother. Exactly. That's what I'm saying. I'm the kid that grew up.

I listen, I'm in my fifties. I grew up hiding under my, you know, bed sheets with my buddy sleeping over in grade school and we'd gotten Richard Pryor's Cassette tape listening to him. Nobody. Richard Pryor wrote the book on how to say the F-bomb and everything else, and we loved it. Then came Eddie Murphy, and there were, you know, comedians particularly did, and it sort of changed the way we could craft the powerful use.

To be honest, sometimes just ripping off a slew of expletives feels good.

However, it doesn't seem to serve an eloquent purpose for esteemed lawmakers. who were voted by constituents to be running around on Capitol Hill just slinging them for a headline. Yeah, and that's ex and it doesn't work. It it sounds it's so forced. It's like it's it's like Liz Warren drinking a beer with her husband and he had his jacket on to leave the whole time.

And hey, would you like a beer? No, I don't think I will. You know, it's like that's not how it is. Like, just. Why?

Be yourself. I don't understand the, you know, like, oh, hey, there was an email. I guarantee you that was like, hey, we got to start cussing. We got to seem hip and cool. Yeah.

Well, and why did they do that?

Well, I would submit to you one possible answer is that they saw during the campaign at Trump rallies, Donald J. Trump, in a very artful way, say, you know, Reverend Franklin Graham says I shouldn't cuss, and I try not to, but this whole thing about me is BS. You're feeling it, you're thinking it. And you know what? He got a standing ovation for it because that's what people are feeling.

A very different More authentic way of bringing that into the national discussion. And I think Democrats are like, we got to do like that. If we cuss, we'll sound authentic because Trump's authentic and we're not, and we need to sound authentic. He's a craftsman. You know, I'm saying there's an art form to cussing, and President Trump would be Van Gogh in this situation, and no pun intended about the ear at all.

But You think about The way he says what he says, the timing of it, it's not the cuss word. It is like, oh, he made me man, I get it. I'm so passionate that I need an extra adjective in there to talk about it too. The difference is if he just said the cuss word. If he just came out there and said BS, the crowd would be like, well, why would you say that?

That sounds weird. You know, and that's the problem is. They just the disconnect. is so Uh Adhorn, or I don't know who they're talking to, or I guess are you waiting for the real Democrats to show up and start like you don't have to like the guy, but if it's a good idea, that should that's good for the country, everyone should be on board. It used to be that way.

I think that it shows the fact that they Are having to coordinate this attempt to use expletives in their messaging tells us that they don't have a clear, defined message. They don't have clear and defined leaders that can do it without having to think about it. And you know, when you've got uh uh Tammy Duckworth or whatever putting out, you know, effing idiot comments, it it it it just feels like You know, they were all on a conference call saying, I don't know what we're going to do, what we should do. And someone says, Let's do this. And you're like, Yeah, why not?

Let's throw that at the wall and see if it sticks. Yeah, and it's not sticking. And speaking of that, they're sticking to me on time. Mr. Griff Jenkins, man, it has been an absolute pleasure.

I can't wait to do this again. Tyrus, great to join you. Have a good one, buddy. All right, like I said, this is Tyrus filling in for the Brian Kilmead show. We'll be back after this.

Increasing your intelligence quotient. What the hell did you say? It's Brian Kilmead. Breaking news, unique opinions. Hear it all on the Brian Kill Me Show.

What it is this is Tyrus again filling in for the for BK while he's on assignment I think he's working on his leg game. There's been some jokes made about he skipped a couple leg days so he's trying to get it together so Get it together. Speaking of getting it together, man. Griff Jenkins, if that's not the coolest name that I've ever heard, I just like talking politics with him, man. He is such a positive person, even if you're disagreeing with him, he has such a joyful tone in his voice when he's talking about.

You could tell that dude's passion is politics, you know, the way that he talks. And he always makes good, strong points. And, you know, it's always nice to come away from a conversation when you learn a little something. And I think that's the one thing is to. Again, we're going outside.

We're also talking again. And let people finish their sentence. Even if you don't like it, try not to interrupt because if you don't, you might learn something or you might learn something about who not to talk to anymore. Again, this is Tyrus filling in for the Brian Kilmead show. We'll be right back.

Fast as three hours in radio. You're with Brian Kilmead. We're getting them out in record numbers and we're having a lot of problems with the courts because the courts want to pretend they're president and they're not president. They didn't get 80 million votes and they didn't, they're not. They can't do that to this country.

That's not their job. But we're getting them out in record numbers. Joining me now is Lawyer. uh friend Reagan Charleston also Mother, small business owner, and last but not least, a reality TV star. Reagan, how are you this morning?

Good morning. When you say all that, it stresses me out. You remind me of all the hats I wear. Yeah, it's a lot. You know, I do that same thing.

When I start, people start listening off the stuff I do, I get a little red in the face, too. Speaking of red in the face, what I at the top before you came on, we're playing that soundbite. As a lawyer, when you're seeing what the judges are doing in terms of the deportation stuff, in particular, the one we were just talking about. How unbelievably shocking is it the effort to keep these particular illegal immigrants who are also criminals in this country? How insane is the effort?

Now Okay.

So This case presents complex procedural issues. You also have some complex laws that aren't often invoked. But I think the most shocking thing is the fervor from the public behind this. And I know we've talked about this before. Everyone should be on board with getting violent gang members out of the United States of America.

That's the number one issue here. But with this case, you have to, you look at it, it was filed by the ACLU. at the outset, you're going to be aware that there are political motivations, especially when you see clear evidence of forum shopping and venue selection. I think we would have seen a much different outcome had this been filed in Texas where that people will argue it should have been piled. Right.

You know, has Is it ever good to know Uh your judges Political affiliation or their marital status or their reli like a judge should you sh the less you know about the judge, the better, right? That's how it should be, yes. I mean, you shouldn't be aware of any of the personal attributes of a judge that's presiding over a case. And, you know, they're supposed to be neutral arbiters. And unfortunately, they're not.

And when you do file a case, the first thing you do when you're assigned a judge is look into their background. Who appointed them? What are their political leanings? I mean, those things do ultimately have an impact on the outcome of the case. You know, and again, I'm not being a smart butt here, but like I.

I I'm more open to the idea of an AI judge. Like, based on what we're seeing now, because he's just going to process the facts, correct?

Well Okay, I'm a lawyer, so I have to you know, I have to speak from my perspective and no, um, I think that the courts are too politicized now. I mean, that's that's an issue and one that we're going to have to face, but there is appellate review and, you know, judges, unless it goes, you know, up to the Supreme Court, which we know is a political body, Unfortunately, even though it's not supposed to be, there are levels of judicial review. But this, you know, it is interesting. And I think that we're going to see a lot happen in the coming days that TRO is set to expire. And the government had moved to lift the TRO, or lift this stay rather, or sought a stay on the TRO.

Plaintiffs are going to move for a preliminary injunction in days.

So this issue is going to be more fully briefed. I believe that they'll ultimately enter a preliminary injunction in this matter, and the DC District Court though. Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking. I was actually talking with the boys earlier about an injunction. Remember, fellas, we were saying injunction.

Yeah, thumbs up. Yeah, that's exactly what we were saying. A great great analysis, as always. I want you can you I need you to switch to one of your hats now. I'd like to talk to the small business owner, if I may.

How are things? It's right around the 100-day mark, or closing in on it. Have you seen an uptick? How are sales? Again, for people who don't know, what's the name of your company?

I have a jewelry business called Reagan Charleston Jewelry, and I have a shop in Canal Place in New Orleans, also an online website. And I will say that shoppers have had more confidence. I feel like our sales are trending back upward, which is fantastic because as a small business owner, the last four years have been difficult. We definitely saw a decline. People's expendable incomes were hit.

I mean, you go to the grocery store and everything's extraordinarily expensive. And coupled with the lack of confidence that the public had in our administration and the uncertainty, people were saving their money and not shopping for, say, jewelry like I sell.

So I'm really confident seeing that like uptick and numbers.

So yeah, I think we're headed in the right direction. You know, um Like I said, I lived quite a few years in Louisiana, and anytime you hear that the businesses are starting doing good, it has such a trickle-down effect, which means the economy is doing better, and that's what you want to have given how things have been. They've been really tough. Again, one more hat change.

Well, probably two, but another hat change. You're also a full-time mom. And, you know, you see what's going on with Lyndon McMahon and President Trump and the Department of Education. Basically, trimming the fat and dissolving a portion of it. Or as a parent, um.

Are you are you do you feel good about this idea of department change in the Department of Education? Are you concerned about it? Are you I mean, because education has, as again, unfortunately, you never used to know your teacher's political affiliation, but now you know. Teachers want you to know everything, including their blood type, and it it's just way too much information. Oh, absolutely.

I mean, we're not just teaching the basics to students anymore. We've, you know, leaned into indoctrination. But let's just look at public schools in general. Like, the Department of Education needed an overhaul. Public schools are terrible.

Kids are not getting a decent education. I'm in New Orleans. My children have to go to pub, I mean, to private school. We could not put them in public school anywhere in the area and expect that they would get even a moderately decent education. I mean, our schools are failing our youth.

And so something, something has to change. And I'm all for a complete overhaul and trimming of that. You know, and I have asked a lot of parents about it, and I have yet to hear negative feedback. Um absolutely at all. You know, and um okay.

Another hat change. What are you currently watching? as a as former uh T V star and uh are current just in between gigs while you're lawyering and selling jewelry. What is your favorite or what is your guilty pleasure series or movie going on right now? Or do you even have time?

I don't have time, but I have made time for White Lotus. White Lotus. I love it. It's so good. Every Sunday, I'm like there to hit my max and watch that.

Otherwise, it's like Spidey or, you know, Sesame Street, whatever is on in the background. I don't personally have time to watch TV, but I have definitely carved out time for White Lotus. It's so good. Will you be taking? The kids to see Snow White.

Yeah. Absolutely not. Not even a little bit. You know, Recy asked, and my daughter asked, and I was like, nope, we'll wait until that's on Disney Plus. And I will not be happy.

Might be in a few days. You might not have to wait that long. The way it's headed, I think they'll be streaming it soon. Box office numbers are just like tanking. And we've talked about this before.

People don't want. Political beliefs pushed upon them. And this young woman, too big for her britches. And, you know, I think it's been extraordinarily detrimental to her career. And yeah.

Yeah, no, I think it's her acting career is done. I think. Your box office. Oh, she painted everything regarding this film, and it's Snow White. Like, of course, we love live-action remakes of any classic, and she destroyed it.

And I think that Disney would have been wise to really get a grip on her in the beginning and said, Hey, this is for kids. We don't want to know about your political beliefs. keep it together, go out, sing, put on a pretty dress. Like this is something that's for children and the fact that she used it as a soapbox. to espouse what are largely offensive beliefs.

Terrible mistake. And I think that moving forward, I would hope that Disney sees what a damaging thing that is to put someone out there that just goes rogue. Awful. Yeah, well, maybe just start hiring the talented and ones with integrity, opposed to hiring someone based on how they look. Which we, like I said, we're cycling through the last of the woke movies that were made two years ago and a year ago.

And we're starting to see them. But yeah, one of the things that she was quoted I saw one of her interviews where she said, no matter what, whether you like her or don't like her, or she's shattered or whatever, no matter where she's at. People will line up like that. I think that right there got. Oh my God.

It's just where's the parents, right? Were you just about to say, like, where's like, hey, like, we were publicists? But I think how bold. I mean, how bold to think I'm so good that nothing I say or do can damage. My, you know, pub the public perce perception of me.

I mean, it's. It's so incredible that these young people are just so misguided. And she said, she's an Incredibly talented, and we should be talking about how talented she is, but she's completely destroyed that. And it's ignorance. You know, I mean, I think that, and I was just saying, you know, maybe Disney should have, you know, curtailed this in the beginning, but could Disney select her, you know, perhaps because she had these outspoken Beliefs and was an activist in her own life or whatever.

Was it a Disney choice? And did it just fail miserably? I don't know, all the way around. Terrible decision making, terrible marketing, terrible branding, and you know, ruined the Snow White live remake. And Gal Gajo is like a supermodel.

I mean, we love her. Everybody loves her. Yeah, it's that to me is probably one of the most disturbing parts is that you have The comments that she was making against Israel and against Jewish people and etc. You know, then all the pro-PA. Palestine stuff.

Like you just read the room, you know? Working I've been on movie sets, I've worked with there's supposed to be a bond there. You know, you you're trying to create, you create art together and it's supposed to be an experience that you look positively back on. And sometimes it you know, some people think they're bigger than Than the business, or in this case, there was absolutely no humbling in the fame. But the thing about fame and stardom is it can go as fast as you get it.

And I think one of the things that Americans are tired of And I it's hurt actors that like you don't, you're an actor, you want to entertain everyone. You don't tell half the country not to come to your movie. You know, 'cause you know what? The half you're not telling is offended by that. It's bad business.

It's by totally bad business. And toe the line, like you said, read the room. But where is the humility? I think what's humbling to this young woman in this case are the box office numbers and the fact that she's unlikely to ever be cast in a large-scale production again. I mean, she is just toxic.

I mean, that's poison for any successful project at this point. And maybe other people will learn a lesson from that. She's a bad apple. That's all it takes. That whole project, think about all the people that worked on this and the money that went into it.

And what a travesty. A bad apple because in the movie Snow White, the evil step. Oh, good one. Yeah, it's too early for me to pick up on all the jokes, but that was awesome, you guys. Maybe you can put the sense of humor hat on next time.

That'd be not yet. Um no, but looking back, I'm just I'm shocked at the last few years that people aren't starting to realize, like, keep it together, don't talk about your political beliefs if you want to be successful in your business. I mean, it's um especially when they're so Terrible and unpopular. Like, it's just one of those things that I hope we're coming to the end of. Yeah, I would like to get back to just.

Getting to know people or being able not someone screaming at the top of their lungs because of who you voted for. I think it's. Uh it it's sad actually that that is the most important thing In your world. But again, I'm hoping we get back to good or back to normal. And I feel it's out there.

Are you seeing the positive things in your community where people are more relaxed and moved on? Because the show's over. You're never going to have to, he's not going to run again, so you're never going to beat him again.

Well, I think that it was so cool to be progressive for so long. And, you know, I had friends that they would take up an issue just because they thought it was like the cool thing to do or like gave them credit and without any knowledge of the substantive issues that they were basically, you know, just riding or dying for. And I think that now we've seen a shift. where it's not cool anymore. People are educating and informing themselves.

And it's less and less, but you still have someone like Wiegler, I don't even know her name. Like her press is that bad. Zegler, Rachel Zegler. You see what she's done, and it's like, hey, maybe this isn't the angle, no longer cool.

So, yeah. It doesn't, and it's not even, here's the thing: she can have all of those beliefs. This is America. I don't have to agree with or understand any of it. It's the way you present yourself in those beliefs.

That it's the condescending: if you're not like me, there's something wrong with you. Uh which goes against the whole point of demanding That you have free speech and be respected when you have to get, to get respect, you have to give respect. And it just, it just, it's funny to me that, like, their, their beliefs have the only way they can substantiate their beliefs is by attacking the. Doesn't ha share the same belief, which to me means your beliefs are weak. Oh, absolutely.

No, there has to be decorum. You know, like I said, I think we're getting, we're getting to be on the other side of it, maybe, but the lack of decorum is shocking. And you've got. Um, that terrible woman that is just in the press. I know you know who I'm talking about.

Yes. Oh my god, every time I watch some soundbite, I'm horrified that you know she's just so crude. And I don't know. I'm hoping that we can get back to some dignity and refinement and just decorum in general. Just regular, good old decorum.

And it is with a shred of decorum that I say thank you so much for your time, Reagan. Awesome as always. Best of luck with your businesses and all your hats.

So you keep doing your thing. And till next time, again, thank you so much for coming on. This is Tyrus filling in for Brian Kilmead on the Brian Kilmead Show. I guess just said his name twice. We'll be back after this.
