Todd Starn. Slow down. And hello, America. Welcome to the Todd Stearns Radio Program. Happy to have you with us today.

Thank you for making our program your choice, noon to 3 Eastern across this great nation we call America. Wow, do we have a lot going on today? And we're going to get into the FBI raiding Joe Biden's beach house in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

Well, it really wasn't a raid. They asked permission. Of course, it wasn't like Mar-a-Lago, where they did the pre-dawn guns-drawn raid and ordered Trump's attorneys to leave the property. We're also getting word that the original raid. at the Biden Center in Washington, DC, the Biden Penn Center.

It turns out that actually happened months ago, but we were only made made aware of it just a few what, a few weeks ago. And so, a lot of questions being raised about that, and we're going to get into that with our good friend Liz Peake. Also, we're expecting a visit from Governor Mike Huckabee. All you Georgia fans out there, former Georgia Bulldog coach Mark Rick, is going to drop by. We're going to tell you about an exciting men's conference coming to the Mid-South, and he's going to be one of the keynote speakers.

Go ahead and write down our telephone number. You're going to need this if you want to call into the program today: 844-747-8868. Again, 844-747-8868. I want to start with a story. Out of the great state of Nebraska.

And may I just ask a question: What the heck is going on in Nebraska? There is a Democrat state senator there. Her name is Megan Hunt. This is from The Gateway Pundant. Cullen Leinbarger is the author.

State Senator Megan Hunt was so triggered over a Republican backed bill that would bar young children from attending grotesque drag queen shows Yeah. That she filed an amendment to the legislation. Yeah.

So, in Nebraska, like many other states around the nation, including right here in Tennessee, they're fighting back against the radical LGBT activist.

Now, I always feel obligated, and maybe you guys should tell me, maybe I should stop doing this, but I always feel obligated to point out that the average gay person in America doesn't support this nonsense. The average gay person in America doesn't want to indoctrinate kids or anybody else. They just want to go about and live their lives. They want to be left alone. And under our great Constitution, they are afforded that right.

But there are some radical activists out there, and they're trying to shove this agenda down the throats of our kids. They're trying to force these vulgar, perverse gender surgeries, mutilations on young children, and it's horrible. But the average gay person, they don't support any of this nonsense.

Now, people always ask me, well, if that's the case, then why aren't they speaking out?

Well, some are. I mean, the log cabin Republicans, which is a group of gay Republicans, they're pretty vocal about it. But I suspect the reason why is that the gay people, the gay conservatives, are just as terrified of the cancel culture mob as everybody else is. Because I'm telling you, hardly anybody likes to speak out about this. And before we get back into the Nebraska story, which is horrifying.

And we need to take this seriously. Here in the state of Tennessee, you got a couple of Republicans that are pushing back, and they're saying, well, we're not too sure if we want to stop the children from going to the drag shows in the private establishments, the bars. Republicans.

So anyway, back to Nebraska. Senator Hunt is calling for young people to be banned from attending Bible studies, vacation Bible school.

Okay. Church retreats. Lock-ins. or any sort of a youth convention held by a church, youth group, or religious organization for the purpose of indoctrinating children with a specific set of religious beliefs. Folks, I'm not making this up.

This is actually an amendment that was made to a bill that would have prevented children from attending Gross perverted drag queen shows.

So Senator Hunt wants to make it a misdemeanor So, if you were going to go out and you were going to invite a child to attend church. It would be a crime in the state of Nebraska. Yeah.

She also added an amendment to her amendment. And this is how it reads. This is the origin this is the amendment, and then here is the additional amendment that Senator Hunt has added to her bill to ban children from the church house. No individual under nineteen years of age shall be present at a religious indoctrination camp. Any person nineteen years of age or older who knowingly brings an individual under nineteen years of age to a religious indoctrination camp shall be guilty of a Class I misdemeanor.

Yeah.

But there's a special note for all you Catholics out there, and Episcopalians, or Whiskeypalians, as they're also known. No individual under the age of twenty-one shall be present at a religious indoctrination camp if alcoholic liquor is being served at such location. Oh, that is the Episcopalians. Regardless if such alcoholic liquor is being served as a part of a religious ceremony. In other words, she's going after communion.

Never heard anything like this.

So now she's saying that if you serve wine at communion, then you would be in violation of the law.

Now I'm a Baptist. And I'm a Southern Baptist.

So look, we don't even serve the good grape juice, right? We serve the knockoff brand generic grape juice at our communion services. My mother was a staunch strict Baptist. She would not even drink grape juice after the expiration date because she was afraid the fermentation process would have set in. Yeah.

So she was a hardcore teetotaler. But we all know that the Catholics and the Episcopalians they used wine at their communion services. As a matter of fact, I was attending one of those services and partook of communion. And all I can tell you is that I looked at the preacher and I said, Hit me again, Reverend. That was some pretty that was some pretty uh pretty good grape juice.

Yeah.

So anyway, the state senator says she understands that this doesn't have a chance in HE double hockey sticks. of passing. Yeah.

But I don't know about that. I mean, what if one day you have a majority in the state house in Nebraska that would be controlled by the Democrats? What if the Democrats ran the show in Nebraska?

Okay. Would they be able to get this legislation through? Hunt says she's merely trying to make a point. No, she's making the point of outlawing Christianity. Quote: This is an amendment that I will use to make a point about the underlying bill, which bans all-ages drag shows.

It won't pass. And then she goes on to say, I would withdraw it if it had the votes to pass. Do you believe her? I don't believe her. I mean, what kind of a person Goes out there and says, you know what, we're going to make a point here.

We're going to ban Christianity, we're going to ban children from attending the church house.

So I'm just curious, ladies and gentlemen, do you take this kind of stuff seriously? I think you should. I think we ought to take Senator Hunt at her word. I'm rather curious to know how she came up with this particular line of thought, and I'm wondering if we're going to start seeing these kinds of moves being made in other state houses around the nation. By the way, Senator Hunt last March claimed gun ownership was not a God-given right.

She posted a message on Twitter, owning a gun is not a God given right. It's a slave owning, misogynistic, founding father given right. She goes on to say, I'm not against the Second Amendment, but be real, the Constitution was written by people.

So Senator Hunt is one of these people that's out there, and she believes that our rights are given to us by man and not Almighty God. Yeah.

I personally believe the United States Constitution was inspired. By Almighty God. As a matter of fact, our rights come from the Holy Scriptures. which is why I believe that we are meant to be a Christian nation. governed by Judeo-Christian teachings.

Mm-hmm.

So there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. It's official that for the first time in American history, a state lawmaker has introduced legislation that would criminalize bringing a child to church. Are you concerned? About religious liberty in America? Are you concerned about the Second Amendment under attack?

We're going to take your calls on this. 844-747-8868. It is a toll-free telephone number, 844-747-8868.

Now, before we go to break, and we're going to go to the phone lines right after the break here, I want to remind you about our upcoming trip to the Holy Land. It's going to be a wonderful journey, and we're taking 100 people, and we want you guys to stand with Israel with us on this incredible seven-day journey. It is a first-class trip.

It's going to be pretty spectacular.

So, all you have to do is sign up for the monthly payment plan. And you can do that by going to ToddSterns.com. That's ToddSterns.com, or you can give us a call, 844-747-8868. All right, we'll be right back, America. See?

All right, welcome back, everybody. Good to have you with us today. What in the world are they smoking in Nebraska? But there you go. Our religious liberty, our first freedom, is always going to be under attack.

And the answer and the reason why is very simple, and it's very devious. Before the Socialists can take over a country, They have to neutralize the churches. And. They did a very good job of that during the China virus pandemic, when virtually every church house in America was shut down. And any church that refused to shut down, they either went after the preacher or they threw the preacher in jail.

They were even more aggressive north of the border. And we've actually had some of those pastors on the program, and we did what we could to stand with these churches. But when you look at what happened in our hemisphere, in Venezuela, for example, the reason why The socialists were able to take control of Venezuela is because they neutralized the churches, they shut down the church house. And when I see this legislation coming out of a place like Nebraska, and I think she I'd like to think she's right. I don't think this legislation has a chance in you nowhere, but one day it could.

And one day you could see The illegal, you could see an effort to criminalize, to make it illegal for people to go to church. I mean, just think about it. Did you ever imagine in a million years that you would see a state lawmaker from Nebraska introduce legislation that would outlaw going to Church youth group.

Now, if they want to if they want to outlaw lock-ins, I'm okay with that. I never understood the lock-ins. Right, you stay up twenty-four hours. Who wants to do that? Jeez a Lou.

But everything else I got a big problem with, and you should too. Yeah.

Understand, if they can neutralize the church, they will be able to take over this country. All you people who are followers of this guy, Andy Stanley, from Atlanta, this big mega church preacher, they're folks that I mean, this guy actually thinks he knows better than God. We played some audio from Andy Stanley a few days ago where he said that all of you Christians should be learning from gay people. That gay people make better Christians than heterosexuals do. He said this from the pulpit.

And by the way, this was not some sort of a random off-the-cuff statement. We're now getting word that he was actually. He was actually grooming pastors. Over the past couple of years, to begin to sway their opinion on issues regarding the LGBT movement. Yeah.

And You heard Andy Stanley say in this audio that we played a few days ago that you know what, we know what the Bible says about this particular thing, but yeah, okay, whatever. But here's where God got it wrong. And it's jaw-dropping. But again, these are all not just disconnected things here. It all adds up.

And again, if you don't believe me, just take a listen to Andy Stanley. Figure out how to get straight people as excited about serving and engaging as the gay men and women I know. We would have a volunteer backlog. That's my experience in our churches.

Well, a gay person, I'll just read it to you. A gay person, when I say gay, of men and women, okay. A gay person who still wants to attend church after the way the church has treated the gay community. I'm telling you, they have more faith than I do. They have more faith than a lot of you.

A gay person who knows, you know what? I might not be accepted here, but I'm going to try it anyway. Have you ever done that as a straight person? Where do you go that you're not sure you're going to be accepted and you go over and over and over and over? Only your in-laws' house.

That's the only place you go where you know you're not completely accepted, but you go over and over and over, and it's because you have to. But other than the in-laws, what environment do you continue to step foot in, knowing at any moment you may feel ostracized? No place. I'm telling you, the gay men and women who grew up in church and the gay men and women who've come to faith in Christ as adults who want to participate in our church, oh my goodness. I know 1 Corinthians 6 and I know Leviticus and I know Romans 1.

It's so interesting to talk about all that stuff. But just, oh my goodness, a gay man or woman? Who wants to worship their heavenly Father? Who did not answer the cry of their heart when they were 12 and 13 and 14 and 15? God said, No.

And they still love God? We have some things to learn. From a group of men and women. Who love Jesus that much and who want to worship with us? And I know the verses, I know the collabor passages, right?

We gotta figure this out. And you know what? I think you are.

So he's blaming God. He just came right out and blamed God and said, Well, all right, you know, yeah, we all know those scriptures. We know what the Bible says about them. Oh, that was kind of a funny thing about the in-laws. That was kind of a chuckle.

That was a good laugh. Good line. But the rest of it is no joke. And it seems to me that if Andy Stanley truly believes this, then he ought to put that into practice. And he ought to just right now go and fire every street person on his staff and hire a bunch of gay Christians.

If I mean, if in fact he's he's believing what he's telling his congregation. Yeah.

Or you just tell everybody, you know what, you need to re-examine your own sexuality because apparently that's standing between you and Almighty God.

Now, what is the point of all of this? What is the point? We're going to go to your calls right after the break here. But what is the point of all of this? The point is to deconstruct the church in America.

And people like Andy Stanley are very influential in doing that. And you people in Georgia know all about that. But there is a movement afoot. To destroy the foundations of the Bible. And you say, well, Todd, that's just ludicrous, really, because this has been Bible teaching in Catholic and Protestant churches from day one.

And now they're wanting so it's all connected here, folks. All of it's connected. I'm not saying it's a conspiracy. I'm just saying there's an effort to neutralize the church house in America, and it's working. 844-747-8868.

We'll be right back. COVIDtaxRelief.org got a small retail business, almost $80,000. COVIDtaxRelief.org got a manufacturing business, nearly $250,000.

That's COVIDTaxRelief.org, COVIDTaxRelief.org.

Refund examples are not a guarantee and not all businesses. Yeah.

Uh Oh, for crying out loud. You know what? I'm... I'm just about had it with these people. This story just posted on Fox News.

Nicholas Lanham is the writer. Here's the headline: Catholic school students were kicked out of the Smithsonian Museum because they were wearing pro-life beanies. This is unbelievable.

So these kids are up there. You know, it's colder than blue blazes, and so the kids these days, they wear the knit caps, and they had these caps that had two words, well, three, Rosary Pro Life.

Okay, well no, that's actually two. There's a Rosary Pro Life. They were blue beanies. Everybody was wearing the same beanie. The kids were there for the March for Life, and they were wearing the beanies during the March.

It was very cold. And so then the kids were going to they're from Greenville, South Carolina. at Our Lady of the Rosary school.

So that's why they're Rosary, so it's the Rosary School Rosary Pro Life. And they were at the National Air and Space Museum, and the museum kicked the children out of the museum. Unbelievable. According to the American Center for Law and Justice, parents of some of the students said the museum staff mocked the students, hurled explicatives and claimed the museum was a neutral zone. Yeah.

So here's what needs to happen. Whoever is in charge, we need to have an investigation on Capitol Hill. Whoever was involved in that should be fired, immediately fired. I'm tired of this nonsense. I'm tired of the anti-Christian bashing that's out there.

And I especially get angry when kids are involved. It's just not right. This is a clear and egregious abuse of the First Amendment. But anyway, Catholics, you're not allowed to wear pro-life beanies. at the museum.

Let's go to the phones as promised, eight four four seven four seven eighty eight sixty eight. I want to start with Ann in Georgia, W D U N, our great affiliate there. Hi, Ann. What's on your mind today? Hey, I just wanted to vent, I guess.

I'm I'm sick of people like Charles. Excuse me, Andy Stanley saying stuff like that is supposed to be a Christian. You must not know what the Bible has to say. Yeah.

But anyway, I wanted to say that I did um see a commercial. on T V this morning. where you can call in if you have a drug problem Um It seems like to me they're just trying to normalize things.

Well, they're making it an illness now.

So it's not like you have an addiction, you have an illness. And they're treating it like you would, you know, if you have a cold, which is what I have, and I've been dealing with this for several days now. But they're treating, you know, I mean, so if you're going out and you're doing something like that, you're abusing drugs or whatever, or you're eating too much and you get fat, oh, you're not fat. You just have an eating disorder. And it's a fair point.

But these days, everybody has it, everything is an illness now. Bye. Yeah, I'm with you, Ann. I'm with you. And I don't know how you folks in Georgia, I mean, do people still go to that guy's church, Andy Stanley?

I guess they do. You know, I listened to his daddy for years, and he needs to take a belt to him because he ought to know better. I'm sorry. That's wrong. You're old school Southern, Ann.

Old school South. I am. And I'm proud of it. Good for you. Good for you.

All right, Ann. Thanks for the call. Let's go to Frank in Maryland, listening to us on our great affiliate in Baltimore, WCBM. Frank, what you got for us today? Hey, it's good to be on the show.

I listen to you when I get off work at midnight.

Now, I'm a few things to say. One, about the Bible. Right, it's no surprise to me. It's going to happen. Things are going to get worse.

But in the end, God wins and his people win.

So this is not surprising to me. But with the twenty election, I really didn't stand up with that too much in protest, but I did pray a lot. But the main reason why I wanted to call was about this Direct T V issue. That was the nail in the coffin for me. I was with them for about fifteen years or so.

And when they took that off, I called them and they said, Oh, they're in negotiation.

Well, I listened to the CEO on your show the other day, and it's all a lie. For the first time in fifteen years, this is how we need to stand up against this because it's wrong.

So I just did drop Direct T V, and I wanted you and all the listeners to know. Frank, good for you. And I'm glad to hear you do that because that's what it's going to take. And you've got to call and let these companies know. You know, I'll give you an example, another example, Frank, Bed Bath and Beyond.

They've closed dozens of stores. They announced yesterday they're closing a number of other stores. And all of that started, they were doing just fine until they canceled Mike Lindell from MyPillow. And they refused to carry any of his products in their stores. And what happened?

Well, conservatives said, fine, you're not going to sell my pillows. We're going to go somewhere else. And you know what? Bed Bath and Beyond is suffering as a result of that. Right.

Well, I think things are going to get worse. You know what I mean? I agree. it's gotta happen. They said the good will be bad and bad'll be good.

So That's it. And Frank, we got to stand together. By the way, now the good news, Frank, is you're calling the live show. You'll be able to hear yourself later tonight. I know WCBM carries the show later in the evening, so you'll be able to hear the conversation again.

Well, we've got to keep the godly principles.

So I support you and your radio station through prayer and all that. In the end, we'll win, but it's going to get rough between now and then. No doubt about that. Frank, God bless you. You'll be safe up there in Baltimore.

Let's go to Bobby in South Carolina. Bobby, can you believe they did that to the poor kids from your home state? Yeah.

No, what do you expect? Two things. First we talk about hu Humanism. Humanism has become the state religion thanks to the Respectful Marriage Act and the Inflation Reduction Act's 88,000 new IRS agents. But something worse.

has come up with our churches, and nobody is discussing this. You've heard about the Sam Smith music video, have you? I you got me on that when I'm not a big Sam Smith. Who is Sam Smith? Is he popular, guys?

My mu our guys are saying yeah, he is.

Sort of. All right. Yeah, what's Bobby, tell us what's going on. He's got this new perverted music video that's popped up But the one thing nobody is saying Our modern evangelical churches are now funding This guy's debauchery. True.

The worship together And Universal Music Group Capital Records. Because for every song That church Sings from Capitol Records worship together. It funds Sam Smith's debauchery because Sam Smith is an artist signed to Capitol Records. And it's capital records that Runs worship together, which is where most churches have ditched their hymnals and organs in favor of playing the latest hits off the radio.

Now, this is interesting, Bobby. Hold on, Bobby. This is fascinating. I know where you're going with this now, and you're absolutely right. A lot of people don't realize that the Christian music companies years ago, all these religious music companies, they sold out to Hollywood.

And we're talking about far-left music organizations now pretty much control all of the Christian music industry. They may still have the same name and the record label, but they're actually being run by these leftists with an agenda. And that's why a lot of these contemporary Christian artists either come out of the closet or renounce their faith. It's all a big racket, it's all big money. That's what it is.

All right, Bobby, appreciate the call. And thank you for pointing that out. And Bobby's right. You got to do your homework. You cannot be supporting these kinds of organizations.

But this is pretty pathetic. That you would have somebody at the Smithsonian telling these Catholic kids they were not allowed inside because they were wearing pro-life knit caps. According to a spokesperson for the museum, they said. Oops, our bad. We didn't mean to.

They released a statement saying asking visitors to remove hats and clothing is not in keeping with our policy or protocols. We provided immediate training to prevent a reoccurrence of this incident and have determined steps to ensure this does not happen again. Unless that step was literally kicking the employee in the buttocks and shoving them out the front door. That's not good enough. I'm tired of it.

I'm tired of the Christians getting treated like this. And you should be too. 844-747-8868. That's our toll-free telephone number. That's 844-747-8868.

Now, coming up, our good friend Liz Peake is going to drop by. She's got the latest on the FBI search of the Biden home in Rehoboth Beach. And by the way, this is how the FBI works. With Donald Trump. It was guns drawn raid.

No advance notice. With Joe Biden, they're calling up and they're asking permission. And by the way, why is this just being done now? Why are they just now? Do you think they're going to find anything?

I mean, look, Biden's not stupid. He's demented, but he's not stupid. You know that they've already gone in and cleaned out anything that was there.

So what exactly are they going to be finding and why did they wait so long? That's the question. 844 747-8868. Mike Hockambee coming by. Also, former Georgia Bulldogs coach Mark Rick is going to be here as well.

Got to take a break. We'll be right back. I've noticed that when I go to the shopping mall and buy one of the towels, they just don't seem to work very well. They feel too soft and too lotiony. They just don't absorb the water.

Well, our good friend Mike Lindell over at MyPellow has found a solution, and you've got to get yourself one of his brand new towels. These things are incredible, and best of all, they're made right here in the U.S. and all of his towels come with a 60-day money-back guarantee. You're going to be able to get a six-piece set, two bath towels, two hand towels, and two washcloths, all made with USA cotton. They are soft yet absorbent, and you're normally going to pay over $100.

But thanks to our good friend Mike Lindell, $39.99. That's it. It's a great deal. All you have to do is go to mypello.com and click on the new radio listener specials and get deep discounts on all my pellow products, including the towels. Just enter the promo code STARNS or you can call 800-839-8506 for some incredible radio specials.

Again, mypello.com, promo code STARNS. Mm-hmm.

All right, welcome back, everybody, to the Todd Starns radio program. Happy to have you with us. Wow, folks, put us on the prayer list. Memphis, Tennessee, we're expecting Kamala Harris here and Al Sharpton. And I've instructed our team at KWAM, KWAM, the radio station I own in Memphis, we are not to call him a reverend.

That guy is a criminal thug. That's who he is, a race-baiting criminal thug. Yeah.

an evil man. He is not a man of the cloth. Period. Anyway, Al Sharpton was um Was on one of the channels going off on our police officers and saying that our police officers were, in fact. Gangbangers.

Unbelievable the amount of vitriol coming out of this guy. Unbelievable. Yeah.

So, anyway, Al Sharpton is going to be here. He's delivering the eulogy at the Tyree Nichols funeral, which is today. Tyree Nichols died on January just a few days after January 7th at the hands of five Memphis police officers. The guy was murdered. It's a terrible, terrible story.

Yeah.

But for Al Sharpton to go out there and paint every single Memphis police officer as a gangbanger is just, it's not true. He's a liar. But they're trying, and it's been very difficult. They are trying. to make this a race issue.

They are they are you don't folks, even now they're trying to figure out some way to blame the white man for this because they want a race war in this country. And why did why does someone like an Al Sherpton want a race war? Why does Barack Hussein Obama want to race? I'll tell you why, because they make money off of this. You see, folks, by and large, People in the South Black and white get along.

We live together. We go shopping together. We go to church together. Most of the people listening to us that go to church in a southern state actually go to a multi-ethnic church. But there are some people out there that go back again to these woke preachers that believe the most important thing is to have a certain number of whites in the audience and a certain number of blacks and a certain number of Hispanics.

It's all about quotas. But I'm telling you, folks, it's a horrible thing. But the reason why and the Federalists had a terrific essay on this a few days ago, but the reason why those five Black Police officers. Killed that young man. actually has to do with the Black Lives Matter movement.

The Defund the Police movement. And as a result of that, unfortunately, on the Memphis Police Department, and I suspect it's the same in other large cities, you have a lot of people who have no business being a police officer, none whatsoever. Because they lowered the standards.

So, this is just nuts, ladies and gentlemen. Absolutely nuts. eight four four seven four seven eighty eight sixty eight is our toll free telephone number. That's eight four four seven four seven eighty eight sixty eight. You know, it's interesting.

When we've been looking back on this Tyree Nichols case, one of the first things I did was to send a note to all of our staff here and say, hey, look, guys, we have a responsibility here not to blow this thing up. We have a responsibility to keep the peace. We have a responsibility to get the facts out there. Yeah.

And that's what our people are relying on. But I can tell you, a lot of other news agencies, that's not what they're doing. They are literally trying to make. That's why. Why do you think every single major news agency in the country had people here in Memphis and still have people here in Memphis?

Because they're hoping. To see riots in the street. That's why. They want to see our city burned down. But that's not who our people are, that's not who the people of Memphis are.

Let's go to the phones. Brad, listening to us on the great WDUN in Georgia. Brad, what's on your mind?

Well, I just want to vent for a minute. I just It just blows my mind tide. How can this how can Charles Stanley's son Bring his kids, wife, what have you. Come to a Christmas dinner. They say the blessing Charles Charles looks at his son and goes, What are you doing?

It just blows my mind what he's doing, how he was raised. Charles Stanley, in my eyes, Uh, you know. is was a is a great preacher. And how he raised his son, I guess it's just like how we raise our sons and daughters. We try to do best.

Sometimes they turn to the left or to the right. But still, this this just blows my mind. And I listen to you, Todd. And um I'll hear these people's names I'll call out, and I'll go to Googling. All right, this guy this Sam Smith cat.

He's he's gay. He fell in love with some uh with some guy that did his um uh songs. He won like five Grammys I'm just beside myself. I can't comprehend it. Brad, it's unfortunate.

I know I get a lot of flack from the conservative movement, and I get it. But again, I'm a constitutionalist. And if you're gay, straight, whatever, that's between you and God. That's none of my business. I just don't want you shoving something, an agenda down my throat.

And I certainly don't. And I don't think people should be influencing children like that. That's just wrong. And I know a lot of conservative evangelicals think that I'm on the slippery slope to you nowhere. But again, this is our Constitution we're talking about.

And Brad, look, I hear you, and it angers me. And I do think that Pastor Charles Stanley needs to have a long, hard talk with his son about this. But you know what? I'm not sure that's going to work. And a lot of people are being deceived right now.

A lot of people are being deceived. Yes, sir. Those people that are going to his church They've got kids. They're holding hands. walking into his church and those kids are being exposed to this.

Every Sunday. what have you, they're going to school. They have friends in the neighborhood in the neighborhoods They're all talking about this. And they're inviting those people to come in. It's like they're going to just take over.

You know what those kids heard? And again, you have to put yourself in the mind of a child, but they're in that audience and they're listening to this. What those children heard, Andy Stanley say is, if you want to be closer to God, you have to be gay because gay people make better Christians than heterosexuals do. That was the underlying message, whether it was intentional or not. That's what they heard.

Brad, we got to run. We are late for a break. We got Thomas in North Carolina. Hang tight, Thomas. We're going to get right to your call, but we've got to take a break for the news.

Again, folks, I'm telling you, what this funeral, and we may dip into some of the coverage just so you can hear what's going on, but Al Sharpton is not here to bring peace to Memphis, Tennessee. And neither is Kamala Harris. 844-747-8868. Our toll-free telephone number. That's 844-747-8868.

Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, it's America's Conservative Blowtorch. That's right. I love this American rap on the stars. All right, well, hello, everybody. Hour two of the big show underway.

Good to have you with us. By the way, we're waiting for the funeral of Tyree Nichols to begin. Kamala Harris in town, the vice president.

So is Al Sharpton.

So, you know, there's going to be some rhetoric being spewed later today, and we will keep you updated on those developments. I know we have Thomas in North Carolina. Hang tight for just a minute, Thomas. I want to go, though, right now, to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. Good to have with us our friend, the Fox News columnist, Liz Peake.

Liz, hope you're doing well today. I'm terrific. Thank you so much for having me. Liz, a couple of things before we get to your most recent column. We know the FBI searching the Biden Beach House in Rehoboth Beach.

I'm curious to know why they didn't search that in the first place. Why now? Yeah.

Yeah, I think it's a good question. I mean, he hasn't had that house as long. He doesn't spend as much time in it, but The the truth is if he is Depositing classified documents, as appears to be the case, in all kinds of places, including his. Think tank office, his own personal library, his garage, et cetera. I don't know why the beach house should be off limits.

I was interested to note that going back and looking at the Trump raid on Mar-a-Lago. Obviously, that was done in a very different way. They worked with Biden's lawyers to agree that this was going to take place, this search. In Trump's case, there was no such accommodation. They didn't tell his lawyers this was going to happen.

It was unannounced. But also they refer to it as a criminal investigation. I've yet to see the DOJ classify what's going on at Rehoboth or in Wilmington as a criminal investigation. But You know what? It is, right?

And so I think it's just I mean, it's sort of interesting to compare the two. There's been a lot of talk about two different systems of justice. I think there are those things.

Well, and my issue with what's happening with Biden is why were they squirreling away these documents in so many different places? That to me says there's something much bigger going on here.

Well, I think they're really I'm sure you've seen the material where Hunter Biden was asking for money from a corporation in return for information that he pretended to have access to. And the summary of that information really does sound very much like a briefing.

Well, where is Hunter Biden getting material that sounds like a briefing that could be given to a A government official, or yes, a vice president or a senator. I don't know the answer to that. I hope you know, I think a lot of things have changed now, and the biggest change. To me, two obvious ones. One, we have Republicans in Congress who are pretty offended by all this stuff that's gone on with the politization of the DOJ, and we have Twitter, which is actually And it's making public uh documents and information that the public needs to know.

I'm optimistic we'll find out more about this. I have to say too, the more that all this goes on, I look back to what Hillary Clinton did: you know, the Presidential Records Act. You're not supposed to destroy any records. She destroyed 7.

so many records. She did so many things wrong. And of course she just got off. Very lightly, with actually no accountability whatsoever.

So, all of this seems to me to have started with sort of a political drama trying to. drum Trump out of the presidential race. And now I actually think that Merrick Garland is just sort of over his head and rolling like a tumbleweed down sort of political caverns that he has no control over whatsoever. I'm sure there are moments where he thinks, what have I done? And Liz, we had heard some reporting earlier today, and I was just sort of channel surfing.

But my understanding is that the original search actually happened months ago. Are you hearing anything about that? You mean the FBI search. Right, the FBI search. Yes, the FBI and again, we didn't know anything about it because it wasn't it didn't go public.

And I and the impression is it happened in November.

So you know, really, uh, there's a lot here that is Very smelly. The good news is, again, the public's aware of it. Joe Biden has seen his approval ratings plunge again. And nobody I mean I I I think that I raised The most interesting question about all this. Last week, which is who locked who leaked this story to CBS News?

Because if CBS hadn't gotten this information, would we even know that this was taking place or that it had taken place before the midterm elections? I doubt it very much.

So whoever did that, knew that Joe Biden was poised to announce his candidacy, whoever did that did not want Joe Biden to run. And my guess is it came from someone in the White House. Liz Peake is on our Patriot Mobile newsmaker line, folks. Right-headed commentary on politics and economics. I didn't realize that was your slogan.

That's a great slogan. Thank you. Nice. Thank you. I've got to try and stick to that.

We need to get like swag. That's what you need to look at. Yeah, I know. It's so true. That is really a good idea.

So, look, folks, LizPeak.com, it's a great website, and I read every piece of Liz's work. Liz, you've got a new column up, and I'm intrigued by this. You're saying Biden's open border will cost Democrats in 2024. You really think that's the case?

Well, here's why. Two things had to happen. First of all, the American people needed to find out that we had this ridiculous Open border Over 5 million people have come across that border illegally since Joe Biden became president. Not all have stayed in the country, to be sure. More like maybe 2.5 million have remained in our country.

So a lot of Americans, look, if you're a CBS News, New York Times reader, you don't even know that, right? Why do you know it now? Because thank God. heavens for Governors Abbott, DeSantis, And docey, those governors of respectively, respectfully, Texas, Arizona, and Florida have been sending all these migrants to cities around the country: Philadelphia, Chicago, Washington, D.C., and of course, New York. And guess what?

Now people are saying, well, wait a minute. How is it we have 30,000 people in our city that we have no preparation for, that we have to house, we have to provide medical care for, and whose kids are going to be in our schools? What's happening here? Those governors made every state a border state. And thank heavens they did, because now I knew it was just going to be when.

taxpayers began to get hit with the cost of all this. That finally people would say, no, this is unacceptable, close the border. And by the way, that's why Biden sort of put out this. Yeah, new regimen of rules and regulations about a month ago, or yeah, about a month ago. uh about four countries But it isn't the entire package, and he needs to do much more than that.

Um and you know I think I just think the time has come and I think he knows that. My favorite part of all of this, we've been following the developments over at the Watson Hotel, which is a nice hotel. It starts at $2.99 a night for rooms and goes up from there. Anyway, the hotel's been shut down because they're using it to house the illegals. And now they're kicking out the single men and sending them to a barracks, and they're protesting because they still want their turn-down service.

And now the activist Liz, at least from the local reporting, they want to house the illegals along Billionaires Row, where all those mega skyscrapers are now located. Right.

So again, bringing this to our doorstep. First of all, these people are protesting, they're making a mess of the whole area. But also, by the way, no one's really talked about this, but They're protesting the fact that single men are being moved out of that facility so that the facility can accommodate families, right?

So they don't want to leave their all-suite bathrooms and mini bars. I get that, where they're going isn't quite as nice. My guess is both facilities are a lot better than what they came from. But A, New Yorkers look at this and they say, well, wait a minute. A, you're not being humane to your fellow countrymen with wives and children.

And so that's kind of reprehensible. And by the way, you expect us to be generous, but you're not generous. Secondly, it's a matter of being ungrateful, right? We're taking care of these people. They have, just to be clear, they have no rights.

They have no right to free dental work and Medicare and all the rest of the stuff that they're that they're getting. And American taxpayers are sort of saying, well, what about us? As you know, I think I included in this piece, there was not long ago a piece about some woman who lived in an 80-square-foot apartment and paying $600 a month for it.

So she must be pretty ticked that these guys are complaining about. about getting free lodging. I mean, can you imagine 80 square feet? That's a true story. And anyways, our New Yorkers in general are not wildly spoiled, but we think these people really are.

It's a fair point. All right, Liz, going to leave it there. A great column, as always. We'll get you back on very soon. I look forward to it.

Thanks so much. All right, Liz Peake, everybody. Right-headed commentary on politics and economics. What a just a terrific writer. All right.

I want to go to the post. Poor Thomas has been holding on forever. But before we go to Thomas, I want to play some audio here. This is Al Sharpton talking about Memphis police officers being gang bangers. Take a listen.

People from around the world. Watch the videotape. of a man unarmed, unprovoked. being beat to death. by officers of the law.

We talk a lot about gang bangers in the street. and what colors they wear. In Memphis, it looks like they wear the blue color and uniform. When you can beat a man, chase him down and beat him some more, and then let him lay there wounded for over twenty minutes. and think nothing would happen.

You felt that No one would respond. That's right. You thought no one would care. That's right. Well, tomorrow, the Vice President of the United States is coming to his funeral.

And people are coming from all over the world.

Well, there you go. It's going to happen here momentarily, and we were hoping the ice storm would prevent Al from getting here because wherever he goes. Things bad things happen. And that's what he does. That's how he earns his paycheck.

And it's not right. It is not right. All right, let's go to Thomas in North Carolina. Thomas, you want to weigh in on Tyree Nichols and that narrative. Thanks for holding on.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I was uh I'm a seventy six year old Vietnam veteran. And I've seen I've been pulled over before and I've seen a lot of other people pull over. But I have never seen Eight police arrived at the same time and then three first responders all at one traffic stop. Hey, was something went on. Before that.

They were chasing him or looking for him for something serious or something. But nobody knows what happens. before the traffic stopped. That's true, Thomas, and we've been pretty vocal about that. And they're saying in the coming weeks, they may release more video.

So they have more video. They're choosing what we can see. Yeah, I try. They don't want to bring up anything that's going to be negative, good, negative.

Well, I don't think there's anything. Look, in this particular instance, I don't think that. Guys, let's bring down Thomas, please, so I can talk. I think the issue here, Thomas, is. That Tyree Nichols did nothing wrong at all.

He has no criminal record. He was on his way home, good, decent, hardworking kid. And he's not a kid. He's a grown man.

So the issue is: what else was going on here? As a police officer, you just don't go randomly up to a car, jerk open the door, and drag the person out. There's something else that they're not telling us.

So was there a relationship between the officers and Tyree Nichols? We don't know because the cops aren't saying. But this is not on Tyree Nichols at all. This is on those police officers. And hopefully, the truth will come out.

My concern is: people like Al Sharpton and Kamala Harris, they don't care about the facts. They don't care about the truth. They want to cause chaos. They are agents of chaos. Thomas, gotta run.

Thanks for the call. 844-747-8868. Again, that's 844-747-8868. We'll be right back. back.

No, I know, I know, I know that the baritone docile tones. that you normally hear from your affable host. Are missing today. And I've been dealing with this, I don't know, this head cold. It's been going on for a couple of days now.

And the weather around the south, one day it's 70 degrees, and the next thing you know, we've got an ice storm. And so we've literally been encased in ice for the past two days. And I can't, I've been doing the Nyquil shots and then the day quill during that. I hope I didn't get them mixed up. But if you have any home remedies out there, I would love to, I would love to.

It's just, I don't know. It's all the upper respiratory stuff.

So, any home, no, it's not the China virus. I'm immune to that. You know why? Because I eat the sweet and sour pork. That's why.

It keeps. Yeah.

I think that's probably offensive to somebody. Yeah.

Let's go to the phones. 844-747-8868. Steve in Central Arkansas. What's on your mind? I would like to point out, Todd, the people you've been talking about that are really trying to throw gas on the fire in Memphis and Jim, this into a race war are the very people that either actively suppressed or supported the suppression of the alleged police brutality at january sixth.

Uh When you Can actively support police brutality or evidence of it. against your political enemies. And then you want to use police brutality When it was Uh help you politically to gen up a A literal race war, like you've been saying. That just truly shows where your heart is. That shows you don't care anything about solving the problem.

You just want to use the problem to your advantage. I go to a church in California when I'm out there, Lancaster Baptist Church. And one of the things I love about this church is they don't, it's probably one of the most ethnically diverse churches I've ever been to. And I asked the pastor about that because a lot of churches are out there and they're trying, they're forcing the congregation to be diverse. And the pastor said that philosophy just doesn't work.

Dr. Paul Champel, he's been on the program a time or two. And Dr. Champel said, we just go out and we share the gospel with everyone. We don't care what color their skin is.

So, again, when you make diversity the thrust of your church or whatever, then you're worshiping the The race, and you're not worshiping God, your focus is off. And I think that's the same thing that should be applied here, Steve, because you have got people that. are hell-bent on burning down our city. And they're not going to stop. That's what I'm afraid of.

They're not going to stop trying. Evil evil should attacking evil should have nothing to do with race. I mean, anytime anybody sees evil, if they're a good person, they should attack it. But the fact that they have anything to do with it. And the cold, hard reality, those six officers, if the standards at the Memphis Police Department had not been lowered, there's a very good chance Tyree Nichols would be out skateboarding at Shelby Farms Park right now.

But the reality is, this is all on the city council that hates the police department, wanted to defund the police department, and now they're having to deal with the consequences. Steve, we got to run. I am late for a break here. Thank you for calling in. 844-747-8868, our toll-free telephone number.

We'll take your calls on what's about to happen in Memphis. Al Sharpton, Kamala Harris here. Maybe I should take another shot at Nyquil. We'll be right back, America. And now, another no-brainer money-saving tip from Progressive.

That doesn't sound good. Paper shredder's jammed, but I think I've... Fixed it. Oh, well try shredding these $50 bills then. Seems like it's working.

Hmm, better try another 400 bucks. Talk. Instead of using money, use regular paper. And here's a better tip from Progressive on how not to waste money: don't pay too much for car insurance. Drivers who switch and save could save hundreds.

Progressive Casualty Insurance Company and affiliates' potential savings will vary. All right, the Republicans up on Capitol Hill, folks, are making good on their promise to boot. Shifty, Pencil Neck Chef, and. Also Eric. Feng Feng Swawell off their committees.

Ilhan Omar is up next. Ilhan Omar, probably one of the most. Just one of the most virulent anti Israel, anti Semitic lawmakers we have up on Capitol Hill. I want to go to the Patriot Mobile newsmaker line. There's an organization Alerting people to all of this and the spread of this socialist anti-Israel, anti-Semitic philosophies.

An organization called Truthtells.org, that's truthtells.org. We have Jeff Burke on the Patriot Mobile newsmaker line today. Jeff, good to have you with us. And I have to imagine that is going to be a good thing if Ilhan Omar is kicked off her committee. It's good to be here too, Todd.

Nice to meet you.

Okay, and I think it must be a good thing to have Ilhan Omar off the Foreign Relations Affairs Committee. It would be a good thing to have her removed from the committee, and we could talk about that she shouldn't have been there in the first place. And why is that, Jeff? She hates the nation of Israel. She has been articulating her hatred of Israel, everything it stands for.

Uh before she took office. Um I think the real shame is that Damn it. members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. Uh 15% of them are Jewish themselves. Continue to keep elevating her in Rashida to lead to these high-profile leadership positions.

Despite the fact that they're so anti-Israel, it's a crazy phenomenon.

So, what sort of work are you guys doing on Capitol Hill to root out these people and to expose them? What we're doing is and you're speaking to someone who's a conservative Jew, I almost ran for the Ted Deutsch seat here in Florida. But what we're doing is giving an actual letter rating. No different than the NRA. wholly fact based.

A letter writing to each sitting Jewish politician on what they are or are not doing to really fight anti-Semitism. And I can give you a quick example. Six months ago, Rashida Talib makes a big proclamation, I'm sure you remember, that says, hey, If you don't believe that Israel is an apartheid state like I do, then you guys shouldn't really be progressive. Nadler, out of one side of his mouth, goes on Twitter and says, This is crazy. I don't agree with you.

But silently, In the shadows. He and Jamie Raskin and Steve Cohen and Lois Frankel. still voted for her to retain her Vice Chair of Member Services seat in the CPC. These people are scared of the squad. They don't want to be primaried again.

They don't want to be called out on social media. Again, the website here, folks, truthtells.org, that's truththtells.org, House Republicans bringing a vote today on removing Elhan Omar from the Foreign Affairs Committee. And again, I think that sends a message to our friends in Israel that we're serious about rooting out anti-Semitism, and we will not allow that to fester in the halls of Congress. That's absolutely true, and what we need is a change of the administration. This Palestinian sympathy has permeated politics.

Policy. that's been going on. They have they keep funding the PA even though there's a Taylor Force Act. We're not supposed to be giving them any money anymore. The Biden administration is breaking the law by sending hundreds of millions to the PDA.

We then fund terrorists to pay for slay. Blinken takes Omar to the World Cup. In Qatar, out of all the congressmen he could have chosen. Why Omar? What kind of conversation do you think Omar is having with the Qatari leadership?

When we're trying to get them to sign the Abraham Accords. Jeff, I know that President Trump gets so much blowback, but he's been pretty direct, especially with Democrats who are Jews. And he says, why are you you know, this is the Democrat Party is anti-Jewish. And I get what the President's saying. But man, does he come under fire whenever he brings up the great big elephant in the room?

It's just there's so many great policies that he's tied to. Look at the border policy that they just reverse out of spite and all things bad are Trump. But this problem, this phenomenon is going going back goes back right to twenty eighteen with the introduction of the squad. There was a famous moment when Ted tried to castigate Omar on the floor. for her rhetoric back in twenty nineteen, And I had a chance to read the real speech he wrote, Pelosi.

stripped about eighty five percent out of his speech that he wanted to make. Sh and and the order walking orders for Deutsch were, Hey, We're not going that hard against this. the squad. We're not going that hard against Taliban Omar. And he bemoaned the fact after the fact after that speech.

He had said that it's not just anti-Semitism. We can't have anti-Islamophobia and we can't be anti-transgender discrimination. And it's Pelosi in the left and Yeah, I think it's a good idea. All right. Well, Jeff, we appreciate you coming on the program today.

And again, we will direct people to your website. That is truthtells.org. Truthtells.org. Thanks for coming on the program. Can't wait to come back to us all.

All right, there you go. All right, 844-747-8868. That's our toll-free telephone number. That's 844-747-8868.

Of all people, CNN, the most profane name in news, thank you, Judge Joe Brown. CNN calling out KJP, cut number 11.

So okay, you're claiming transparency, but I'm bringing this to you. You aren't bringing it to me. This happened in mid-November. If you are indeed being transparent, why the continued trickle of disclosure around these classified documents? We have released multiple statements from the White House, and President Biden's personal attorney has released multiple statements over the last month, walking through the process and agreeing to be fully, fully cooperative with the Justice Department.

This is a process that plays out. We are responsive to the Justice Department's requests. We have been clear from the outset that the President will cooperate with every request the Justice Department has, and we put out multiple statements. Yeah.

Well, not true. Not true. As a matter of fact, KJP has been telling us from day one that the search was complete, and this is back on january the twelfth. Take a listen, cut number eight. The search is clearly complete.

They completed the search. The search is complete. He is confident in this process. You should assume that it's been completed, yes. After the search concluded last night, that search was completed last night.

Yeah, so what are they looking for today, KJP? Can't wait to hear her explanation of how all that went down. All right, let's go to the phones here: 844-747-8868. Stanley, North Carolina, WHKP, our great affiliate there. Stanley, I hear you're going to help me out.

You're going to make me feel better. Yes.

So here's the deal. Dr. Van Lawrence, who used to be Liza Minelli's doctor, et cetera, when I was in voice school. At Rice, because of my teacher, I was able to go to this guy, and he gave me a gargle that is super simple. but is incredibly effective.

So you're going to take eight ounces of water, Now you know light K Ro syrup. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. Getting a tablespoon of that. Yes.

a tablespoon of Armin Hammer The baking soda that you put in the fridge to make it smell better? Yeah, that's it. I got it. A teaspoon of salt. Woo.

Okay. Y salt. You're sure salt. Yes, solve. to help clear your stuff.

You got the baking soda to soothe you and the lycara syrup to lubricate your voice. What you're going to do is you're going to gargle that water. Right, but when you gargle, I want you to do the, you know, do the a e o, do the vowels.

Okay. You're not pulling my leg, are you here, Stanley? No, no, I'm not. And do this over a sink because it's going to clear you out. And that is Advice from the world's number one voice doctor.

They even named the ENT building at Texas Medical Center after Dr. Van Lauren. Really? Oh, wow. All right.

I'm going to try this tonight. I'm not doing it on camera because it'll go viral. I don't want anybody seeing that.

So I will do it tonight. Yeah, you do this by yourself. Don't let your let your wife watch you do this the first time. Do it over a sink, okay?

Now, let me ask you.

So, Paul Shanklin's writing out, texting, and he says that you left out the bourbon. Is this true? There's no bourbon involved. Then what's the point? Oh, and the pecans.

What is Shanklin doing? The pecans? That's bourbon pecan pie, Paul. You know what? If you switch over to good Scottish single malt.

and and heat it up a little bit? Maybe. Jeez Lou. I'm going to have to settle for a Baptist martini. All right, Stanley, I'm going to try this.

I appreciate the home remedy there because honestly, I just don't like the way Dayquill, Nyquil. It just feels like you're in a haze all day. That's anyway.

So, Stanley, thank you for the guidance there. I will try that tonight. Let's go to Miss Janice, the Queen of New Orleans, getting ready for Maudy Gra down there. All right, Miss Janice, what's going on? Hello, Todd.

I want to ask you a question.

Okay. This cold you're talking about. Is it just a head cold or do you have chest congestion? No, it's just a head cold. Not coughing, just sneezing a lot.

Sneezing.

Well, that's good. A a head cold is better than a chest cold. Because whenever I would get a chest cold What I would do is take what they call it's like robotessin DM, it's a cough syrup, but it's also for congestion. They call it expectorant. Is what it's called.

It helps to break up the phlegm in your chest so that you can cough it up, you know. But you know what I do, Todd? Let me ask you this. Do you take a vitamin at all? I'm sure you know, I take Balance of Nature every day.

They're a great sponsor of this program.

So I'm popping bills all over. I'm not going to take Balance of Nature. But what you need to do is get a multivitamin. Because every ever since I've started taking a multivitamin every day, I don't have colds like I used to. Really?

I used to get as a child and even an adult, about maybe every other year, I'd have a heavy chest cold. But since I started taking the vitamins, I don't I don't very rarely do I ever get a cold anymore.

So, you might want to get yourself multivitamin. I don't know anything about balance of nature. I know they say it's very good, but it's not a multivitamin. Balance of nature is very good. I used to take the flintstones when I was a kid.

It stopped you from getting the cold, though. Try a multivitamin. Gotcha. All right. I'm writing this down, Ms.

Janice. Thank you for the guidance. And look, anything you tell me to do, I do because it always works.

So I appreciate your anecdote there. Or antidote. What certainty is it has for me?

Okay. All right. Thanks, Ms. Janice. Thanks for the call.

I like Miss Janice. We haven't heard from her in a while.

So we do need to take a break, primarily because I have to sneeze, but we've got to pay some pills, too. 844-747-8868. Again, toll-free number: 844-747-8868. We'll be right back. Venture X from Capital One is the travel card for people always asking, where next?

See CapitalOne.com for details. You know, I didn't get to talk about Cindy Williams, who played the great. La um Shirley on Laverne and Shirley. That was really the golden era of T V sitcoms. Back in the 1970s, you had Laverne and Shirley, you had All in the Family, the Jeffersons, Samford and Son, you had Uh oh gosh, happy days.

Remember those times? I mean, those were like when the family could sit down, you could have a good time, and you could watch TV together. I don't think you can do that anymore. I really don't. I mean, it's insane and it's sad, but that's kind of where we're at right now in American society.

But Cindy Williams died. She had played, she played for, I think, just about the length of the entire series. When they left Milwaukee. That's when the TV show, I think they moved to Hollywood, and that's really when the show went to. You know, it went to pot.

It jumped the shark. As a matter of fact, we're going to play a little bit. I'm calling an audible here, guys.

So, here's how we're going to do this. I have come up with a good trivia question. I want to give away a copy of my book, Culture Jihad: How to Stop the Left Room Teligon.

So, we talked about Laverne and Shirley, and when they moved to California, they jumped the shark. But where did the phrase jump the shark come from? It actually came from a TV sitcom. That whole phrase Jump the Shark.

So give us a call if you know the answer to that question. 844-747-8868. Where did the phrase Jump the Shark originate? 844-747-8868. But yeah, one of the best sitcoms in all of T V sitcom history.

Yeah.

And the show based there in Milwaukee, and the girls worked at the Schantz Brewery. Remember that? That was a great show. I was watching an old episode of All of the family the other day. And there's no way, no way any of those shows would ever be allowed to happen on today's TV.

Hollywood would not allow. And by the way, the whole point of All in the Family was to poke fun at your conservative moms and dads. But it was just as it was so well done, so well written. It was great. It was just absolutely, it was absolutely great.

So, anyway, one of the great ones, and I know that Penny Marshall is probably left-wing, but they just did a good job. And they kept their politics to themselves. That was. That was back in the day.

So lines are lining up. You guys are making Dylan work today. All right. 844-747-8868. If you.

If you know the answer. Let's go to Paul in North Carolina. Hey, Paul, so what's the answer? Where did that phrase, what T V said come, did that phrase originate on? Oh, happy days.

Yeah, you're absolutely right, Paul. It was. Happy Days. Hey, Paul, what was. I'm just curious.

What happened on Happy Days that led to the expression jump the shark? I think they were running out of ideas, and I think they thought it would be great to put Fonzie on some skis and see what he could do. Fonzie on skis, wearing the leather jacket and the swimming trunks with the boots, jumping the sharks. Yeah, he had shorts on like John Stockton. It was too much.

Yeah, it was way too much. And that's where the phrase originated.

So that was a good show early on, but then it just kind of went weird. I agree, man. I enjoyed it as well. And then you're right. It just it was on too long.

Hey, Paul, we're going to put you on hold, and Dylan's going to get your address, and we're going to send you a signed copy of Culture Jihad: How to Stop Flood from Killing a Nation. Oh, sounds good to me, man. I appreciate it. All right, you got it hanged tight there.

So, yeah, we haven't done trivia in a long time.

So, anyway, yeah, unfortunately, ladies and gentlemen, TV these days is just not as good, right? Even remember was it Fridays or Saturdays? You had The Love Boat, you had Fantasy Island, and there was one other show that was sort of like the lineup, and it was just good programming. Especially for us kids. There was another show that wasn't.

It wasn't. There were three shows together, and it was. No, it wasn't Knight Rider. I can't remember. Anyway, somebody will call in and will remind us.

But they just brought back the love boat, but it's not like the love boat, love boat. It's actually some sort of a reality show about a love boat. Go figure. All right, we got to take a break here. 844-747-8868.

Coming up in the next hour, you're going to want to stick around for this, folks. Governor Maikakimi is going to be here talking about the news of the day, along with this raid on Biden's home. Also, Coach Mark Rick from the Georgia Bulldogs, former coach of the Georgia Bulldogs, is coming to Memphis. We're hosting a huge men's conference. And, guys, if you want to be inspired, you're going to want to be at this conference.

And we're going to tell you all about it coming up at the next hour. It's coming up February the 11th at Bellevue Baptist Church.

So we'll tell you more about that coming up. All right, hang tight, everybody. Hour three of the big show coming up. This is the Todd Stern Show. Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, it's common sense conservative commentary from Todd Starnes.

That's it! That's right. I love this American Ride. All right. Well, some exciting news to share with you.

The number is just coming out, and we have had a record month on the Todd Starn Show podcast. 1.3 million downloads in the month of January, and thank you very much. We appreciate you guys hanging out with us and listening to the podcast. 1.2 million page views over at ToddSterns.com.

Well, I want to go right now to the Patriot mobile newsmaker line. Great to have with us our good friend, great American Mike Huckabee hanging out with us. Governor, hope you're doing good today. Just trying to stay warm and keep from getting iced over here in Little Rock. And by the way, congratulations on An incredible Report for your podcast and webpage.

That's fantastic.

Well, I appreciate that, Governor. You know, we're one of the few folks that are non-corporate owned out there.

So we're just doing what we do and just like you, building a grassroots support. And people seem to enjoy it.

Well, I truly think that not being owned by some corporate entity that tells you what your parameters are, what you can say. and whether or not you can take stands on certain issues It gives you a freedom that a lot of people don't have, and maybe the listeners don't appreciate it. But I sure as heck do because I know the difference. Governor, you'll love this story. I popped in on Saturday.

We have a gardening show Saturday mornings, 9 to noon, or 6 I'm sorry, 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. on Saturdays at K-Wham. And we stole the garden show from it from one of the corporations, one of the corporate radio groups. And two guys and a gal.

And we were talking afterwards and just making sure everybody was safe. You know, it's been kind of chaotic around here. And one of the guys says, I hope you don't mind, Todd. He goes, but I pack heat every day when I come into the radio station here. And the female host, she pulls out a switchblade.

I said, guys, this is not NPR. You know, carry if you can. Ha ha ha ha. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my goodness.

So, Governor, you mentioned the ice storm. I know you guys over in Arkansas here in Memphis, we are this is day two of the ice storm. And regardless, they were able to get Al Sharpton and Kamala Harris into town for this funeral of Tyree Nichols, who was killed by the Memphis police officers. But I just don't think Al Sharpton is coming to bring a message of peace.

Well, and that's unfortunate if he isn't because that's what Tyree Nichols mother has certainly been about. She has been such a champion Uh you can't help but when you hear her feel two things. One is a great sense of Sympathy for her. And the family, and all that they've been through. But the second is an extraordinary level of respect and admiration.

for someone who instead of trying to stoke up anger, and make people go to the streets and burn something down. has taken the exact opposite approach. And said to be nonviolent and to show your support, but not to do it with anything that steps across that line of being legal. And being respectful of other people's lives and property. And I tried to tell people that were coming in.

We've been fielding a lot of calls from national media. And I've been telling you, though, I'm like, guys, I would be shocked if the protests turned violent here because in Memphis, yeah, you're probably going to get carjacked, but the protests are always peaceful here. That's just not how things operate. And I know it shocked a lot of people, but people who live here and go to church with folks, we know this is not the, you know, the protests are peaceful.

Well, and they ought to be. People should protest. But what I hope people will recognize is. When something terrible happens involving police officers and they do Bad things. what we really have to hope for is that they're not going to be let off the hook just because they're cops.

Well, these guys are not. They've been charged with murder. I mean, that's holding people accountable if there ever was.

So rather than people being ready to Uh Tear something down and burn something down, they ought to be grateful they live in a country where even the law enforcement officials. are held to a standard of justice. And uh I've Simple system of law. That's all we ask for. Rule of law.

It applies to everybody, whether you're on The law enforcement side of The law, or whether you're on the lawbreaker side of the law, it ought to be. True justice, and that's what we're seeing played out. I think Memphis has done a magnificent job. the people of Memphis, the officials of Memphis, need to get a real pat on the back. They didn't let this thing linger and fester for months.

They immediately stepped in They took action, and they're holding these officers accountable. What more can we ask for? than simply saying everybody's going to have to abide by the law. That's it. That's it.

Governor, I want to play some audio. This just happened up on Capitol Hill. You're going to hear the voice of Congressman Jerry Nadler, the Democrat from New York. And our Pledge of Allegiance is a national symbol of pride and unity. And it was a great honor to be able to invite one of my constituents this morning to offer the Pledge of Allegiance.

And so my amendment gives the committee the opportunity to begin each of its meetings with the Pledge of Allegiance. It gives our members the ability to invite inspirational constituents to be able to share and lead in the Pledge of Allegiance. I offered this amendment to the judiciary rules two years ago, and it was defeated. I'm very optimistic that we'll have a different outcome today. That's the amendment, Mr.

Chairman. I thank the gentleman for his amendment. I support the amendment. Does anyone seek recognition? Gentleman from New York, ranking member now.

I would oppose it simply on the grounds that. As members know, we pledge allegiance every day on the floor, and I don't know why we ha we should pledge allegiance twice in the same day to show how patriotic we are. There you go. Just say no to the pledge, Jerry. Yeah.

You know, that reminds me, Todd. There was a Husband and wife has been married for fifty years. And the wife one day looked up at her husband and said, I just don't understand why you don't just tell me that you love me every day. And the husband looked over and said, Honey, The day we got married, I told you I loved you, and I hadn't changed my mind, so there's no point in me repeating it now. And when I hear Nabler And that's what I think.

Here is a guy who just thinks somehow he doesn't need to tell his country he loves it anymore, because somewhere back there, he already did it, and that ought to count for it. Jerry, want to say to you, buddy, won't hurt you to pledge allegiance, might do you some good. If you think about those words, it might change the way you govern in Congress. Governor Mike Huckabee on the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. Governor, real quick, the breaking news earlier this morning, the FBI calling asking permission if they could head over to Biden's beach house to do a search of documents there.

I'm curious to know why they had not already done that, and what are they doing over there now?

Well, what they didn't do was to show up with the SWAT team go in and take his passport. Go through Jill's clothing. And Hunter's playtime stuff, whatever he's got going at the moment. This is just such a double standard of justice. They invite Joe's lawyers to come in and look over what they're doing and participate in the process.

How come they didn't do that for Donald Trump? And I don't want to hear this nonsense on MSNBC about how, well, Donald Trump wasn't cooperating. Yes, he was. and even put things under lock and key, something apparently Joe didn't do. It's a double standard of justice.

Anybody with one eye and half a lick of sense can see it. And I just long for the day. When everybody gets treated the same under the law, exactly what we were talking about in Memphis. What a contrast to what we see in Washington. Speaking of one eye, I will share this story with you, Governor.

We had a criminal here, a one-legged guy, who stole just within a span of six hours, stole two cars, broke into a cop car, and stole the cop's uniform here in Memphis. We share with our audience that the one-armed thief was busier than a one-armed paper hanger. It's terrible. I thought you were going to tell me that we're going to charge him. Uh but they decided that he didn't have a shot 'cause He didn't have a leg to stand on.

I don't know. Maybe that's where you wanted it to be. I'm just going to, you know, I'm doing NyQuil shots for the show today, so I have an excuse. I don't think you do, Governor. I don't.

I don't have an excuse. I'm sure there'll be some hate mail coming to my Twitter account over it. Hey, let's talk about the big show coming up. And by the way, mikehuckabee.com, everybody, the landing page for the governor, and be sure to check that out. But, of course, the big show Saturday on TBN.

Well, we are working. We are hoping to get James O'Keefe from Project Veritas as one of our guests this weekend. I want to talk to him about that alarming and disturbing video that he was able to produce with the Pfizer executive Uh and just stunning. information. Project Veritas has been a stalwart in unveiling some things that we needed to know about.

and that the mainstream media still won't tell us. All right, folks, you'll be able to watch that. And again, MikeHuckabee.com. Governor, always appreciate having you on the show. Always my pleasure, Todd.

Take care and stay dry and warm. Indeed. All right, we will. It's rough here in the South, folks, I'm telling you. By the way, Howard writes in from Georgia talking about Carol O'Connor, who is the star of All in the Family, Archie Bunker, and says: Todd, the best show Carol O'Connor was in was when he was chief of police in Sparta, Mississippi.

What's interesting about that show, it's called In the Heat of the Night. And Carol O'Connor, that film, that show was filmed in Covington, Georgia. And hugely popular back in the day. I will say this, Carol O'Connor did a pretty good Southern accent. All right, before we go to the break here, I want to go to Lewis, who is actually on the line from Georgia, WDUN, our great station there, wants to weigh in on the Tyree Nichols trial.

Hey, Lewis, what's going on? O Louise. Yeah.

Hi, Louise. I'm well. Thank you. I'm that crazy woman, so can I rant for just a minute? Louise, that's why we have a radio show, so Americans can rant.

So you rant away. All right, just give me a minute here. I got to start with Al Sharp and that is one complete idiot. And my understanding is that The mother invited him, so I'm wondering what Moron talked her into that.

Well, it's not her. I'm telling you, Louise, it is not the mom and it's not the stepdad who are good and decent people. It's their attorney, Ben Crump. He's the guy, and he is a massive race agitator, that one.

Well, that's all our charting is. And the other couple of things, Michelle Obama is going to be running in twenty four, in case anybody wonders. And they are spending twenty million dollars, I understand, on a trail, a walk path. In her honor, they're going to name it after her. We don't want that in Georgia.

We're not a Democratic state. I keep saying that. I don't know why people can't wake up. But anyhow, There was something else. But that poor guy that was beat to death There's something else going on there.

It's like you say, that had nothing, you know, you don't do what those. idiot did to that poor boy. No, and Louise, you're right. Targeted somehow. Yeah, you know what?

That's exactly what it looks like. It looks like he was targeted. And the only reason I say that is how quickly they rushed up to that car. Cops just don't do that. I mean, there is, you know, there are procedures.

How many of them? Who would have been plenty of cops? Yeah, that didn't make any sense either.

So those poor dudes they'll burn in hell for what they did. Yep. And they should. Whatever they get coming to them, Louise, they ought to get. It won't be enough.

It won't be enough. It makes all cops look mad and they're not. You're right about that. Louise, we got to run for a break. Do you have anything else to rant about?

Oh, I could go all day, but I won't. I'll just worry you to death and call you again. You do that, Louise. All right. Thank you, Nat.

Thank you very much. All right. 844-747-8868. Again, 844-747-8868. This is the Todd Starring Show.

We're standing room or break it. We're gonna make a True love. Give me the hour. Sing along America. Straight ahead and all.

On the track now, we're gonna make. Make our dreams come true. Doing it our way, there is nothing we won't try. Never learned the word impossible this time. There's no Stop it on.

We're gonna do it on your market set. And no now, got a dream, and we just know now. We're gonna make that dream come true, and we'll do it our way. I gotta cut down on the night, well. Two and You see, guys, this is what a theme song used to sound like on TV.

And it's just so sad for Generation Z because they have been denied the pleasure of sitting in front of the television and singing along with their parents as the theme songs come on. And of course, you remember Cheers, probably one of the all-time greats, Hill Street Blues. That was another one. You know what we're going to do, guys? We're going to just.

We've got to talk about this because this is something that's lacking in American culture right now. And the problem is the rap music, the blasted rap music. Yeah.

We're missing out, and we need to teach this new generation about the great TV sitcoms and TV shows of yesteryear.

So I'm curious to know: do you have a favorite TV-themed song? And if you do, I want to hear from you today. 844-747-8868. That's our toll-free telephone number. That's 844-747-8868.

No, as much as I love the Indy Griffith show, they whistle, right?

Well, they do have the guitar.

So it's Go Into the Fishin' Hole, is the actual name of that song. But again, there are Beverly Hillbellies, Petticoat Junction, Green Acres, It's the Place to Be, Farm Living the Life for Me. Those were Those were good T you see, this is what's wrong with America right now. We don't have good T V theme songs anymore. I challenge anybody from Gen Z to name a current theme song that is worth remembering.

In the modern TV era of the year of our Lord 2023. I'm just telling you, all the TV themed songs came from the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s. And then things started to go south in the 1990s. It's just the way it is. 844-747-8868 is our toll-free telephone number.

That's 844-747-8868.

Oh, by the way, Tom Brady has retired again. Cut number six. Good morning guys. I'll get to the point. Right away.

I'm retiring. For good. I know the process was a pretty big deal last time, so when I woke up this morning, I figured I'd just press record and let you guys know first. I won't be long-winded. You only get one super emotional retirement essay, and I used mine up last year.

So, really, thank you guys so much to every single one of you. For supporting me, my family. My friends, my teammates, my competitors. I could go on forever. There's too many.

Um Thank you guys for allowing me to live my absolute dream. I wouldn't change a thing. Love you all.

Well, we love you too, Tom, but yeah, you should have retired, you know, the first go-around. I'm just saying. But anyway, I mean, look, it's the guys had a great football career, but it's, you know. You gotta call it a day. I mean, you're what, 65 now?

Yeah, Tom. All right. Hang tight. Jeez, Lud, the phones are lighting up. People wanting to weigh in with their favorite TV theme songs.

I love this. This is what is right with America. 844-747-8868. This is the Todd Star Show. Kyle, I love this, I love this bumper music.

Who is this? This is Marcus King Band. It's on the cover of Marshall Tucker. I love this song. We have the best bumper music in all of Talk Radio because we only have the full-time show.

We're the only conservative talk show with the full-time DJ. Oh, yeah.

Well done, Kyle. All right. Be sure to send me a link to that so I can add it to my playlist. Welcome back, everybody, to the Todd Stearns Radio Program. Hang tight.

The lines are full of people wanting to share their best TV theme songs of the 70s, 80s, and beyond. But we have a big event coming up in Memphis. And if you're a guy, if you're a dad or granddad, you've got kids, I want you to listen up. This is going to be a great event. I'm going to be there in attendance.

It's the Men of Memphis Conference, and it's a two-day event here in Memphis at Bellevue Baptist Church, where I attend. Pastor Steve Gaines, our good friend Mac Powell from Third Day, is going to be there. Steve Green from Hobby Lobby, Vilas Jones from the Chicago Bears. Also, we're going to have David Pollack from ESPN and Scott Dawson. And.

the guy we have on the Patriot Mobile newsmaker line. And as a Tennessee volunteer, you can always find agreement when you're a believer, including with the Georgia Bulldog, former Georgia Bulldogs head coach Mark Rick. Coach, good to have you with us today. Todd, it's good to be here. Thank you.

Coach, we're really excited about the men's conference coming up. And before we jump into that, you got to be so proud of the Georgia Bulldogs. A lot of pride right now in the state of Georgia in that football program. Oh, it's it's unreal what's going on. And we actually moved I say we and my wife and I moved back in town.

We're about a mile from the stadium and uh So we're right in the middle of all the pandemonium, but uh Obviously, you're having the two national championships in a row After that uh long, long wait since nineteen eighty. It's been been crazy for this town and really happy for the dogs. One thing I do want to do though, Change gears just a little bit. I heard you guys are. Talking about theme songs to your favorite television shows back in the day?

We are coach, and we're kind of a weird show because we're sort of focused on politics and the culture, but sometimes it just gets too much, and you got to take a detour.

So we're talking about great T V theme songs. You got one? Oh yeah, Gilligan's Island is by far the best. Oh, of course, the three-hour tour. It's.

Exactly. All right, we're going to try to scrounge that up for you, Coach, before we're said and done here.

So, Coach Rick, Gilligan's Island is his pick. Very good. Coach, I'm really excited to come and hear you speak in this men's conference. First of all, you know, there's been such an attack on men in America and what does it mean to be a man in America? And there's been a big debate these days.

Why are conferences like this one so important?

Well, I don't know if you remember the Promise Keeper movement a few years back. Oh, yeah.

if you ever went to one of those, but there's something really special about Men getting together. and spending time together talking about issues that we all have but also just the act of being in the same room Uh Sometimes as many as 20,000 coats. people would show up to those men would show up to those events and And to hear them singing a cappella basically with all those voices. It's just a A powerful feeling. that, hey, we can make a difference in this world And it starts.

Obviously, with your faith, your personal faith is in it goes right straight to your wife and and your children and then your community. And if everybody would take care of business, in those areas, we'd we'd be living in a much a better country than it is right now, which is Hard to be 'cause we are and people We are in a great place for sure. Coach, several years back I was asked to speak at an Iron Sharpens Iron Conference over in Birmingham. I had the unfortunate job of being the guy that came after Tim Thibault, so nobody remembered what I said. But I was so taken back by the guys who showed up with their sons, and it really was sort of this multi-generational thing.

And you're right, there's something about seeing men, boys worshiping together and sitting there and hearing the word and hearing these testimonies. I mean, it really is inspirational. Yeah, it it gives you a lot of uh faith and confidence to do the right thing. And When you're rowdin' like minded men and you hear stories of guys you know, taking care of business, so to speak. it does encourage you to do the very same.

And And a lot of a big part of taking care of business sometimes is just Making sure your relationship with the Lord is where it should be, you know. make sure you spend time in the Word. Make sure you spend time in prayer and And then maybe is just as important spend time in a small group, say, of of men that uh Uh can can encourage one another. I'm in the middle of you mentioned David Pollack, being at the event as well. We live in the same town and I coach David of Georgia.

And he invited me to be a part of his group of guys that meet on Wednesday mornings I've got a group I've met with, a group of men I've met with for the last twenty three years in Athens as well. And So those things are very encouraging. My brother, Craig, and I have done Bible studies together. I mean, you do have to sharpen it up, so to speak. And we need each other to do that.

Folks, go ahead and write down this website address, belleviewmen.com. That's B-E-L-L-E-V-U-E, belleviewmen.com, and you'll be able to sign up and be a part of this incredible two-day event. It's Friday night and Saturday morning. And of course, Mac Powell, one of my favorite singers, and he doesn't live too far away from you guys. I know he lives up in the North Georgia area, but just a great singer.

Oh, that's a that's a g when I saw that I got I got fired up. I I'm not a big singer, to be honest with you. I listen to the words, I meditate on them and I usually end up tearing up every time. I hear you know, the the lyrics that are so meaningful. I just would butcher it up if I started singing it myself.

But when you when you have a bunch of men around you, Belting it out, you get confidence to go ahead and and built it out with them. And I know Mac is really gifted in the ability to do that. We We have our number two son, David, who is a musician and has been a worship leader over the years and It's just uh Pretty awesome to understand. How music can really uh you know, bless a conference like that and and bless your life.

Well, Coach, I think we're going to have to wrap it here, and we look forward to seeing you in Memphis. And I hope Pastor Gaines is going to take you to a couple of barbecue joints while you're here. Otherwise, there's really not a point of coming to Memphis without some good barbecue. Yeah, that and Delvis Presley Museum, right? Oh, we can definitely.

You gotta see that. What they've done over there is just remarkable, and it's worth a day trip over there, not only to see the house, but also to see the museum. It's pretty impressive over there. I might give it a shot.

Well, Coach, we're going to go to break, but we got a little something for you as we do. And again, safe travels as you make your way over to Memphis in about a week or so. Again, folks, belleviewmen.com. If you'd like to join us, I'll be there. And we would love to see so many of our listeners across America come over to this great conference.

Coach, God bless you, and thanks for being on the program today. Yeah, now everybody's bringing a friend invite the leaver that could be very important. Absolutely, we will definitely do that. Coach Mark Rick and his favorite TV theme song. This is the Tot Stars Radio.

The weather started getting rough. The tiny ship was tossed. If not for the courage of the fearless crew, the minnow would be lost. The minnow would be lost. All right, my good friend David Sitton just sent me a note.

It's menofmemphis.org, is an easier website. Menofmemphis.org. Woo! As the songwriter just sang. Menofmemphis.org, if you want to sign up for it.

And, man, I'd love to see you out there. Ladies, tell your guys to get out there and be a part of this great weekend coming up, February 10th and 11th in Memphis, Tennessee. Folks, have I told you how much I love Newsmax? I hope I think I do that every day. You can't get Newsmax now on DirecTV or U-verse, and that's because Newsmax has been censored.

Last year, ATT Direct TV canceled OneAmerica News.

Now, Newsmax, the fourth highest-rated cable news channel, now gone. They've taken it off DirecTV. They still have 22, yes, 22 liberal news channels, and they paid them a lot of money, but not Newsmax. President Trump says ATT Direct TV censorship is unacceptable. He's urging you to cancel DirecTV and ATT services like cell phones and wireless.

But uh mine's a little strange. It's ER. I'm a retired ER nurse, a traveling nurse.

So but that was my favorite right there. And one other thing, you talked about the Andy Griffith show, The Whistler. The Whistler, yeah. Yeah, that's uh Deborah Winger's father. Is that right?

Yes, sir. I had no idea.

Now, I I thought I was pretty good at Andy Griffith's show trivia. That would have stumped me right there. I don't know why I picked it up, but it was just like every time I hear the whistle I think of Deborah, you know, her dad and everything.

So I looked it up and then there sure is. He doesn't get up that Never see the credits for it on there, but Well, I'll be. Anyways, I love you, Stacy.

Well, thank you, Roger, and you be safe out there. Where are you heading to today? I'm heading to Carlisle, PA, and then turn right back around going home to Charleston, South Carolina, James Island. All right. Well, be safe out there.

Hopefully, that bad weather will miss you guys. Oh, I I thought I'd been in from Houston. It was rain, so but it's better now. Good stuff. All right, Roger, God bless you, and uh we love all of you truck drivers out there.

You mean this one? That's it brother and in the in the videography the news that's the airplane coming in Hold on, here it comes. Yeah.

You got the women in the bikinis dancing. You got the surfers. Yes, and maybe a high-energy one for singing with Rawhat would get the benefit across in a couple of generations. Hold on a second, Bill. I like this part.

Hold on. All right. Yeah, that's the Nyquil kicking in. All right. We got a key change.

But, Bill, we're going to keep talking here. I've lost control of the show, Bill. My apologies. Yeah.

If you want for singing, you can't beat Rawhat. I mean, every 12-year-old kid was singing that. Keep them doggies rolling. They crossed generations when they, yeah, and they crossed generations when they threw it in the Blues Brothers. How about that?

Oh my gosh, I forgot about the Blues Brothers rendition of Rawhide. I've actually got that. I had the C D, but I would love to you know, they're going old school now, and LPs are coming back, and I would love to get that. That was one of the best movie soundtracks of all time. There you go.

And I remind the coach that there were two versions of Gilligan's Island. Remember, they had to change the ending when it got popular, and they added the Professor Marianne instead of calling them the Rust. And that's true. I forgot about that. That's a fair point.

Of course, when we were growing up, Bill, I don't know if you were of that age, but you either had to declare your allegiance to Ginger or Mary Ann. Yeah.

Oh, I was uh well, let's just say I was First grade in 64, so I kind of went for Mary Ann.

Well, there you go. Yeah, if you're in high school, you're always ginger. That's all there is to it. All right, Bill, appreciate that call, and thanks for listening. Man, those are some great songs.
