A
Adam's here.
B
All right, let's start off today, guys. By Tom just respectfully letting everybody know. Yesterday's super bowl was hands down the worst Super Bowl I've watched my life. I'm sure the people that are Seattle, I was about to say supersonics, Seattle Seahawks fans, I'm sure you enjoyed it. Everybody else, what a boring Super Bowl. But you know, there was some stuff, there was some controversy going on with the halftime show and there's two songs in my brain right now, Vinnie that just lingering. One of them is in the Jungle and I. Because you know that song, because of a video that apparently went viral that you know should have not been posted. And then of course Bad Bunny and then Kid Rock. So you, you're wondering like brain's confused. I don't know what I'm listening to right now. There's a lot of stuff that we need to go through, guys. It was interesting to see what tpusa did with their super bowl halftime show record breaking numbers. I mean the number of live stream that they had, insane. I saw it hitting 5.6, 5.7. Concurrent numbers and allegedly the super bowl numbers, they're saying it's going to come around to 125 to 128 million viewers. That's what they're saying. They don't have the final numbers yet. They're saying it's going to be lower than last year. Last year was the record breaking year that hit 134 million. So some may say. Is this because TPUSA took that 6,7 million away and they watched that or is it because nobody really cared about Seahawks playing the Patriots where not a too big superstar quarterbacks are playing. Who knows, who knows what the reason is. But commercials. I just watched 50 cents commercial and I. Have you seen 50 cent? Have you guys seen 50 cents commercial? Okay, don't want.
C
No, no, no.
B
I just want you. I am so. Tom, have you seen it or no?
A
Yes, I did.
B
Okay, don't say anything. I just watch. Are you kidding me? You're joking to me. Okay, let me tell you, let me put it to you this way. I can't wait to see your reaction when we watch this together, folks. Wait for us and watch it with us because we're Gonna get right into it. I thought Coinbase crushed it with their commercial. You know, the way they got everybody singing. Next thing you know, everyone's singing. Was it Backstreet Boys or Action Boys? One of the two. I'm like, wait a minute. Why is grown men singing this song?
D
Loved it.
B
Tom is up there dancing and doing stuff.
D
Twerking.
A
Couldn't help it.
B
Yeah, he couldn't help himself. And then for a minute we thought the kicker was going to be the MVP and it was going to be a shutout, but no, they ended up scoring a couple touchdowns. So anyways, bunch of super bowl stories to get into, which we will address at the same time. This, this, this, this Savannah Guthrie story. Okay. Nancy Guthrie story. I don't know, guys. This is like a, you know. You know. You know how sometimes you. You were telling me this morning, we're like, vinnie goes home yesterday. And then next thing you know, what do you not do at 11:30 at night? Have coffee. So Vinny has coffee. Okay. And after having coffee, stays up till 1 o' clock in the morning thinking he's, you know, Sherlock Holmes trying to investigate what happened here. I think he's figured it out and he's going to reveal to us what happened today. But there is some very. What is that clip? The script. What she says is identical to the script from the movie Rap.
D
It's wild. Silence of the Lamp.
B
So wild. We have to watch that. Yeah, it's absolutely something we'll watch. Trump administration suspends 111,620 California borrowers for allegedly committing billions in pandemic era fraud. He also announces dramatic drop in Ozempic price. Trump's midterm redistricting master plan is falling short. That's Wall Street Journal story. Trump deletes the racist video depicting Obamas as monkeys after bipartisan backlash. It's a political story. We have to get into that. Trump had to call Tim Scott and Rob. I don't think the person that allegedly posted that video is fired. Right. If I'm not mistaken, we'll talk about that as well. There's some stuff that's going on with Tulsa Gabbard. Florida voters sued Desantis over redistricting push. Harvard is woke. The War Department is not. Pentagon terminates academic partnership with Ivy League schools. Ivy League schools. And then we have Mamdani quotes the Quran bible to support sanctuary city status. I'm sure, Vinnie, you love that.
D
Oh, it was amazing.
B
Prediction market cal. She seeks U.S. approval to offer margin trades. Pretty intense. That's going to be crazy. 9 in 10American. You ready for this? Believes US is in full blown cost of living crisis study finds. Adam's got some thoughts on that. Washington Post publisher Will Lewis abruptly steps down days after massive layoffs. Got the newspaper. I don't know how much longer Bezos is going to take. All this noise a company is creating for no profit. You're wasting your flipping time, you know, managing a business like this. Cut the damn business. You can afford to lose 40, $50 million, or even take a $50 million. I'm sure some billionaire would love to be able to put in their assets to say they own WaPo. Get rid of it. It's creating so many headaches for you. I've done that in the past before in a much smaller version, but we'll see. We'll see what happened there. FCC launches probe into ABCs show the view amid crackdown on equal time for candidates. And then Team USA Freestyle Skiers spark Olympic outrage. You ready for this? Ear muffs, kids.

Team USA Freestyle Skiers spark Olympic outrage over remarks about representing US Anti American. Rhetoric, okay. Or rhetoric? Okay, rhetoric. Rhetoric.
D
I like rhetoric.
B
No, it's rhetoric. But I thought it was a different one because this next one Tom wanted to talk about. Olympic ski jumpers are reportedly juicing their penises, their danglings for bigger jumps. Literally. It's a Daily Caller story. They are literally putting steroids down there because it makes them go longer. Like, jump. I don't mean to say.
D
No pun intended.
B
I get it. They jump longer. It's what. By the way, this morning, out of all the hundreds of stories we got this story. Humberto brings up a. Rob, Tom is standing up, showing us what they do.
D
I'm like, put your pants back on.
B
Grab a seat. Tom, what are you doing? Vinny's in the bathroom screaming, hollering. Anyways, that's a whole different story there.
A
But I got applause.
B
Yeah, you did. You did get applause. Bad Bunny parties with Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin at the super bowl show. We will do all the super bowl stuff. Black national anthem, stoke social media outrage. Before super bowl, did they do black national anthem, Rob?

A

D
Oh, I'm not. I'm not even being funny. Every time it landed, everybody kept jumping in there. And, like, I was pushing kids out of the way. I'm gonna be honest with you.
B
That's how good the chicken was.
A
That's his secret marinade. You see the big bowl?
D
I saw it. I saw it.
A
That was ridiculous stuff in there. That's his secret recipe.
B

I may be out there barbecue and grilling my chicken. Like, pounds of it for everybody, cutting it up. Come get it. I may do something like that chicken is the best.
A
You do a how to on your marinade and, like, share it. Because I know it's like the recipe for Coke.
B
Yeah, right.
A
It's like.
B

You know, everything fails and who knows, low key, just making, you know, 120 grand a year, enjoying myself, making chicken for folks. Anyway, chicks. Those are the stories now, folks. Rob, I don't know if you have the clip or not, gang. For those of you guys, you know what's been happening a lot lately, which I love, okay? Which I love the statistic when I'm looking at this on what's happening with PBD podcast, more ladies are starting to watch PBD podcasts, and it keeps climbing, okay? And of course, we all know why that is. We have Vinnie on the show, and we have Tom on the show, and we do have Adam on the show, okay? But the ladies are starting to watch the podcast podcast more and more. A lot of mothers and families and ladies who are getting on here. So, fellas or ladies, Rob, if you can go a little bit lower for Valentine's Day, if you want to get a Stefano Richie collaboration tie with valuetainment, these are limited numbered.

So when you're walking in the mall, you're at the gym, you're at work, you put this on. Other people say, wait a minute, me too. I watch that show as well. I'm also a valuetainer. Click on the link below. Get yourself one of these pink hats or some of the red gear that we have. Especially with Valentine's Day being around the corner. It's the most expensive day of the year for me because it's my wife's birthday that day. My wife's born on Valentine's Day and it's Valentine's Day. But we got a soccer tournament this weekend for us instead of Valentine's Day. So we got some stuff that we got to do because there's a soccer tournament. Anyways. Go to vtmerch.com Place your order. With that being said, let's get right into it. First story I want to get into is the Super Bowl. Okay, so first let's start off with the Bad Bunny performance. Rob, what can we show? What can we show with the Bad Bunny performance? What can we not show? I'll start off with an open ended question. Turning Point USA at the same time announced they're going to be doing a halftime show. Okay. And our halftime show, Rob, if I'm not mistaken, I know they announced they're going to have Kid Rock there, that a bunch of different people there and they're like, okay, is this going to work? Is it not going to work? There's not really a crowd there. Do we just invite a few friends and family and then put on the show? How many people are going to show up? What will be considered a Success on the TP USA YouTube channel? We watched it 10 minutes before the halftime show. They had 250000 people waiting. Then it went to 450, then it went to 650, then in a million. And then all of a sudden we were all betting at the house. How many people were going to be watching a live stream? I think you hit 5.6, 5.7 just on a TP USA channel, not including Charlie Kirk's channel. Thirteen hours later, 20 million people watch these guys perform. And Rob, the folks that were performing were who? I know it's Kid Rock. It's right there. If you zoom in, I'll see it right there. There you go. Brantley, Gilbert, Lee Brice. And you have Gabby Barrett performing. And then you have Bad Bunny. A lot of controversy. Is he going to wear a dress? No. Is he going to do ice? No. Some people said that kid that he gave the Grammy to was Liam Ramos, which it wasn't. Right. The claims about that. You know, the Grammy that he gave to that kid. That kid. Apparently when we were watching it, it was like, hey, kid. Young Bad Bunny. He's an actor. The kid was an actor. One day you're gonna win a Grammy. And he's giving it to his younger self, which was a good depiction. So. And then there was no ICE message. And matter of fact, you know what's the craziest thing what super bowl did? Shout out to Roger Goodell right after Bad Bunny was done performing. Guess what was the first commercial that played right after the Bad Bunny performance? An ICE commercial. Did you guys see this? An ICE commercial, Rob, is this the ICE commercial?
A
Yep.
B
So Bad Bunny ends and then right afterwards, this is what they're showing. Go ahead, Rob. Equal time. Their friends and neighbors, sons, fathers, their little league coaches and veterans, they're people who love this country. These are Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. They are removing violent criminals from our streets and neighborhoods. It's dangerous and difficult work. But ICE has one mission. To make America a safer place to live. And that's what they're doing. This is law enforcement. This is ice. By the way, pause. Victory goes to Roger Goodell for doing this. I like this equal time stuff that we're talking about. You allow this to happen. You allow that to happen, and you allow the commercial and bad money. State civil, for the most part. I have some commentary I'll give as well, but, Adam, I'll come to you. Your reaction to Bad Bunny's performance.
C
So I have mixed reviews here, and here's really what's going on here. I'm going to. I'm going to basically say there's winners and losers, and there's a lot of winners. And there's one big loser. The big loser is the United States of America. The winners are every single individual group that wants to basically express their beliefs. So Bad Bunny and the. And the Latin American crowd, huge victory for them. Huge victory for Turning Point usa record numbers. Huge victory for the immigrant community. A huge immigrant for Our enemies, foreign and domestic. They want to see America divided. They want to see the halftime not speaking in English. They want to see people upset about it. They want to see the black national anthem. The only way that this country is going to lose is if we're divided. Now, who lost? Well, the NFL, like, the NFL woke up with a black eye this morning. The game sucked. The halftime show is basically what all everyone wants to talk about. You think that's what they want to be known for. And then literal Patriots, the Bob Kraft had a bad week. Didn't get elected to the hall of Fame either did Bill Belichick, Tom Brady, obviously rooting for the Patriots, they lost. So in my opinion, there was a lot of individual winners, but one big loser, and that's the United States and the NFL.
B
Many.
D
Well, I mean, nobody should be surprised. I love a lot of people. Like, I can't believe they.
C
No, no.
D
Yes, you should. He was scheduled to do it.
B
Okay.
D
He's, you know. You know how he stands politically. He barely speaks English. He's at a Yankee game. He sits for God Bless America. So I don't like the fact that people were surprised what's going to happen. But my thing is this. This was supposed to be an entertainment for the biggest night in American sports. If you don't follow Bad Bunny, if you don't speak Spanish, if you're not down with the twerking in the club, it wasn't entertaining, plain and simple. We're sitting at the house and literally, literally, I look back, there's maybe one or two people that were Latin, you know, Latinos that were dancing. Don't be wrong. The beats were good, the dancing's okay. But like, if you think about it, all of it was Spanish except, what, Lady Gaga for 20 seconds, she. She spoke English, if that's not it. But I think personally, that's what they wanted. That's what they gave you. If you support the NFL, good for you. My opinion. And if it's okay with you, Pat, I have Rob to play it. The best part of the Super Bowl. While everybody's getting ready and talking and running around everybody at the house, at Pat's house, stop me, Tom. Everybody, people were in mid conversation, took off their hat and stopped and watched the tv. It was Charlie Puth's national anthem. If this right here doesn't give you goosebumps about being America, this is what America was about. This was it. Rob, you could go at 120, right?
C
Perfect.
B
Right there.
D
Rob, play this. If it's okay. Go for it. By the way, not lip syncing. This isn't lip syncing, by the way. And as Rob tries to get it, this is his actual voice live singing the national anthem.
A
I'm buffering. Hang on one second.
D
Oh, it's okay. You're buff yourself. But anyway, here we go. Oh, here it goes. Here it goes. Right there.
C
Up.
B
Perfect.
C
Boom.
D
Very picture. Watch this, Adam.
B
Very picture. Love that.
C
I mean.
D
That'S what it's about. That's what it's about. Listen to his voice, right? What?
A
Me too, up there.
D
Oh, my goodness. That's what it's about. And Adam posted a video yesterday about a Whitney Houston pet singing like this. By the way, again, this isn't bashing Spanish people, Puerto Rican people, whatever. There could be room for that. But on America's biggest stage, people, People want songs that they know, moments that they could remember forever. Something that's going to sing along with, not something that you have to translate and sit and not understand it. Do you see the video of inside? Could we play that one, Rob? I wouldn't play the music because he's singing. But for anybody out there, that was like, what do you mean? Everybody inside the stadium was having a blast. There's a video of somebody that took from inside and was recording and panning around the. The audience. There's one or two white people dancing. Yeah. Rob, lower the volume because he is singing it. This is what's inside while he's singing. Looks like two people dancing. Look at everybody in there. They're not recording. They're just standing there. Nobody understands what's going on. You have one white girl dancing. Good for her. Nobody. Nobody's into it. Nobody's into it. So it was a little disappointing. If you're Puerto Rican and you knew what he was saying, you had a blast. But for me, it was kind of a down.
A
Well, I have two points that are different. And the first is the NFL contracted, you know, a producer, Roc Nation, 50 Cent, whoever it was.
B
Jay Z. Not 50 Cent.
A
Jay Z. Jay Z. I'm sorry. Jay Z. Contract. Jay Z to do two things. Number one, bring us younger audiences. Number two, bring us more diverse audiences. And let's do that through music. And the super bowl halftime show has been a musical extravaganza for 25 years now. And so that's what the NFL wants. And the NFL, let's face it, you know, they need that diversity. They need those audiences because they need to get the audiences aligned with the broadcast for which they're being paid billions of Dollars. So if they get a billion dollar contract, 6 billion for streaming, 4 billion for this, all these contracts, the audiences have to come true, otherwise next time they're not going to get the same contract. So they are out there trying to get younger audiences, more audiences. Point one, point two from the minute they did this. And Bad Bunny, what was he on Saturday Night Live? All of you are going to see me. If you don't understand Spanish, you have six months to learn. Remember he did that?
D
Yep.
A
And he delivered what he said he was going to do, which is a, a Spanish language performance. And you know, I didn't see anything particularly offensive in it. Do I think it could have been better? Do I think it was a little tone deaf in terms of the wide audience? Yeah, but it was like a cultural walkthrough of, you know, of his, you know, Hispanic themes and similar to a halftime show I thought was well produced a couple years ago, the walk through the history of hip hop and they had the big house and all of the east and west and everything. I thought they did a good job with that. It felt to me like he was trying to do a little bit of the same thing. Now I don't understand. I understand Ricky Martin. I don't understand others, but that's just me. But that's my thoughts.
D
What do you think, Pat?
B
Yeah, so a couple things I want to isolate. We'll talk about Turning Point usa, why that could have been a bigger disruption. We'll talk about that. I do want to address one thing that's probably the most important part of the story because anybody that's a parent watching this, that has a kid that plays sports. We had a conversation last time with my nephew and my, my, one of my sons plays competitive soccer and we have a lot of people, many of you guys do as well. There are not too many stories, better stories you can tell your kids than the Sam Darnold story. Let me tell you what's special about Sam Darnold story. Sam Darnold is the only quarterback in the history of the NFL to be a starting quarterback for two different teams back to back that had a 14 and 3 record. And last year, Minnesota banks on somebody else. They said, no, Sam Darnold's not the reason why we're doing well. It's Justin Jefferson. Any quarterback will do well with Justin Jefferson. They're probably not wrong. This quarterback gives you a fortune and three record. You give up on them. Then Seahawks come in and say, we'll take you. They bring him in, same record, 14 and three, takes him to the super bowl and they win. I don't even know who they announced was the mvp. Was it the running back? But Sam Darnold as a starting QB took two teams, 14 and 3 and 1. And by the way, this kid, Sam, in ninth grade, they said, what do you want to be when you grow up? He says, one, I want to play for usc. He does two, I want to go out there and go into the NFL and all this stuff he's saying. And he says, I want to also be known as a nice guy. I want to be known that this was a nice guy. Sam Darnold said this at, what do you call it, ninth grade. There are a lot of bad examples kids are following right now on social media. It's a very, very encouraging example to give a kid who goes to the Jets. Nothing happens with the Jets. Is that it, Rob? Yeah. Here you go. Attend the university, usc. He does become a sports broadcaster for espn. He will become a father. Never drink or use drugs in my life. And be remembered as the nice one. So guess what, Sam Darnold, you're awesome, buddy. I hope you maintain the standard and help. Many parents out there that want to give an example of somebody saying, hey, that's a good example. That's a role model. That's Sam Darnold for you. Dreams can become a reality. So, parents, we had a good example of a person that wanted. There's a lot of good stories that's probably going to come out with us. He's probably going to go on the tour, do a bunch of different shows, all these, you know, shows that you do on TV so we can learn more about his story. That's that. Let's set that part aside. Let's come back to Bad Bunny. Look, I'm from the Middle East. I was born and raised in Iran, okay? My mother's Armenian. Bosio. My dad's a Syrian. Vinnie's a Syrian from New York, lived in la. Comedian, actor. Adam's Jewish, born in Miami, not from Israel. He's born in Miami. Plate country. Miami Country Day. One of the best athletes down here goes to Florida State. Florida State plays football. Basketball. One cut away from making it to the NBA. Denver Nuggets. Chauncey Billup's nephew got the spot instead of him. Stories with his father, what his father used to do with Special Olympics. Tom, that was a rocket scientist, right? IBM. Dad worked on a lot of different things. One day, Tom and I are having dinner in San Diego at some event we went to. And this man sitting next to us. I don't know why we were having this religious moment that night. Like it was very spiritual moment. And this man sitting here, I start a conversation with the man. Next thing you know, we find that this old man worked at the same exact place as Tom's dad did. Next thing you know, Tom's in tears, crying with the man. He had a moment about his father, lives in Florida, goes to Cal State University in Northridge, gets his mba, goes at IBM. As a guy that's seen as a regular guy, wins first in his plate. And his company has done 20 plus deal toys, 2 billion plus deals. You know, families got lineage to Canada. You. Everybody's got a certain emotional attachment to your blood and your heritage. Guess what bad monies is Puerto Rico. That's what he is. That's what his pride is. That's his stories. He's telling his story now. He didn't do anything wrong. He was selected. He didn't choose to do the. The. What do you call it? The halftime show. He didn't choose to do it. He was selected. Jay Z selected him. Obviously, at the halftime show. The audience there didn't win because the show is horrible when you're at the Super Bowl. I've been to the Super Bowl. It's horrible when you're in the indie. What do you call it? The sound sucks. You can't see anything. You're trying to track it. This show, believe it or not, is better if you're sitting at home watching it than if you're actually there. Right? There are only a few shows that if you were there, you were like, oh, my God, this was crazy. But Michael Jackson, one of one. It'll never top it. Maybe Whitney Houston, maybe Janet Jackson, Timberlake. Couple of the stuff that historic moments that we think about, there's typically controversy tied to it. Give him credit. Do you think some people gave him feedback? Do you think some people said, don't go in a dress? Do you think some people said, don't make this about politics. Do you think some people said, keep it tone down? Do you think he maybe wanted to flirt with it? So credit to him, who maybe didn't do any of that stuff that everybody else was doing at the Grammys. I didn't see a sticker that said ice out. Right? What is. I didn't see a be good sticker. I didn't see anything. So somebody gave him clear instructions. And as a creative, guess what typically creatives are known for doing? Breaking rules. And I don't think he Broke any rules. I actually thought it was a pretty. I give it a seven and I don't know what score I gave it last time we were going through it. I thought I'd give it a seven. Seven and a half. Actually Enjoyed the storytelling of the performance. Let me bring you back to where I think they messed up. Listen, guys, you could have brought bad bunny at 251. You could have brought him at 249. You could have brought him at 252. I don't care. Great. My son listens to bad money, doesn't agree with them, but my youngest son actually knows quite a few songs of Bad Bunny. It makes you want to move. It's a. It's a very happy music. Even though some of the songs like my nanny will listen to, says daddy, do you know what he's saying? I said no. Let me tell you what he said. Like, no shit. Yeah.
D
Oh, wow.
B
That's pretty crazy what he's saying. 250 year anniversary. You couldn't have done something else? Really? On 250 year anniversary, we couldn't have said, you know, made this about America. Remember, NBA has teams in Canada. It's an international sport. NHL has teams in Canada. It's an international sport. MLB has teams in Canada. It's AN international sport. NFL is an American sport. And this was a 250 year anniversary. And as much as I paid attention to everything, Roger Goodell at the end of the halftime performance after the game, he's hugging Bad Bunny and he's thanking him with all this other stuff. And they're having a moment together. I get it. This was a good opportunity for us to make it about 250 years. It doesn't mean get political. You know, how amazing of a scene would have been like if you would have done something like, we are the world, we are the children. Remember when they did that one song back in the days? You know that song that we still sing till today? Yeah. It was just an amazing moment. Right? What if we brought Kid Rock and Beyonce and you know, you know, a. A Bad Bunny and we. What if we brought everybody from a man. What if we brought Morgan Wallen? What if we brought all of these guys who say, hey, this is America. This is who we are. What if we did that? I think that was the missed opportunity for me with the NFL that they could have made it again. 251, 252, I don't care. 249, 248, I don't care. It's a marketing decision. That's where I think the NFL missed the mark. Aside from that, actually give them credit. Now, let's talk about Turning Point usa on a Turning Point USA side. When you think about what they did, okay, Turning Point usa to say that these guys took on the NFL, the first ever institution to take on the NFL and have the courage to test and see what happened. And by the way, I don't even think they knew how many people would tune in. I guarantee you turning point USA had no clue. 5.6, 5.7, 5.8 million concurrent people were going to tune into one channel and Charlie Kirk's channel would have 1 million to put those two together. 7 million tuning in, watching that. I don't think they were expecting that. So when I watched the show and I watched the audience and I saw it, I'm like, all right, good performance. It was okay. I gave it a six, six and a half. And why do I give it a six? I give it a ten for the idea and execution. I give it a six, six and a half. Because the market is now saying there is a place for that. And you can actually get super bowl to want to do a co op with you and do something with you. I don't know what that would look like, but I do think if they would have put a little bit more money into it, I think it could have been more creative. I think they could have added some humor. I think they could have done a little bit more. But I do give them a six and a half for the performance that they had. I give them a 10 for execution. The fact that they actually did it, they came through and now the market's watching and saying, oh my God, there's a place for this. Remember, you know what they charge for 30 second slots this year for commercials? 3 million, 8 to 10 million dollars. Let me say one more time, 30 second is 8 million to 10 million. 60 second is 16 to 20 million dollars to put a 60 second commercial. So if I'm the board right now, remember, in business, it's all about margins. It's all about margins. Yeah. 8 to $10 million. 30 seconds. In business, it's all about small little percentages. What does that mean, Tom? If a, if a Insurance company loses 7% of market share to somebody else, do they pay attention to it?
A
Oh, my gosh. When you take a look at 10% PE, so price earnings ratio, typical company on Wall street, pat, you know, 10% profitability, net profit is a big deal. You lose 7% off the top. That probably goes to 5.
B
So you know what this means.
A
Profits are your last month. Not only would it get my attention, it would get everybody standing up hot.
B
Do you think they're talking about TP USA at all? You think the word TPUSA has come out of Roger Godot's mouth?
A
Yes.
B
Yes, it has.
A
Yeah.
B
Okay, so what do you think they're thinking about? Do you think Roger Godell is the type of guy that will make the call and say, hey, guys, can we think about something for next year? Do you think they would do that.
D
To, like, a Jay Z?
B
Do I think Roger Goodell calls Jay Z or calls Trump or calls these guys and say, hey, can we figure out something to do for 2027 and still entertain the audience with TP USA? Do you think they do that?
A
I don't think they do a mashup, but I think in the coming week, not weeks, they're going to sit down and look at this, because you're going to have. If I'm. Let's say that I'm. I'm Pepsi or I'm Budweiser, I'm like, hey, man, I gave you the horse and the eagle trying to put an American ad.
B
Okay, so let me flip it, then. Let me flip it. Do you think Pepsi and Coca Cola and those guys, somebody from TP USA calls them and say, hey, we've already lined up next year and here's what we want to do. We want to go ahead. We understand you're doing it there as well. Here's what we want to think about. Do you want to do some. Do you want to be a sponsor? Do you think they make that kind of a call?
A
Absolutely. If I'm Budweiser, I'm in the business of selling my product.
B
I agree.
A
And I got 20 million people on TP USA on their first year, it's going to be bigger. Next year, it's going to be more there. And I'm going to tell him to say, listen, I know. I know you're looking for my money. I've always been here at the super bowl, but I'm giving you seven next year. That's all I'm doing. Because I'm going to put four with TP usa. Soon as that happens, you not only have Roger Goodell's attention, you have the attention of every owner that's going to be in Roger Goodell.
B
I totally agree.
A
And not all those owners were happy about bad money.
B
I totally agree. I totally agree, Adam.
C
Well, here's what I think is really going on here. I think the NFL just had their Bud Light, Dylan Mulvaney moment where they said, whoa, we're abandoning our core audience to please a certain audience and listen. Born and raised Miami in the nightlife scene. Dude, I love Bad Bunny. Wrong place, wrong time, wrong performer. For the moment. I agree with you on that. But don't forget, who does the NFL really care about? NFL is not red. NFL is not blue. NFL is all about the green. They might as well change the NFL to the National Finance League. They're charging 10, 20 million bucks. Money grab, money grab, money grab, money grab. There's also a saying in the NFL, not for long. Hey, if you don't act right, not for long. So if you keep doing things like this Roger Goodell, you're going to have fans say, just like Colin Kaepernick, not for long. So in my opinion, what they're going to do is next year and say, we're going to stomp on Turning Point usa. They are no longer going to be basically taking our audience away and they're going to have a country hip hop mashup. They're going to probably bring Garth Brooks and Nelly and do that type of thing because they got to bring America again. Final, final, final point. I genuinely don't think the NFL fully understands how big of a player they are in the national landscape for culture. This is the biggest cultural moment in, in our country and you're going to fumble the ball on the one yard line. Roger Goodell, do better.
D
When you say the Dylan Mulvaney moment, do you, do you not think Roger Goodell, he's. Dude, he's a smart guy. Whatever. People hate on him and his decisions in the past, like, you know that they're in the room, they're like, he's like, wait a minute. So every song is going to be in Spanish? Yes.
B
Are we cool with that?
D
Yes. And I'm curious how much of a moment is like Jay Z and them going, yeah, yeah, we're gonna do that. Jay Z's not stupid as well. This is intentional. If you're doing this, it's intentional. With Dylan Mulvaney, they hired a girl at Budweiser, remember? She was all woke, rainbows everywhere. She's like, that's where the movement. That was a horrible decision with some DEI stuff and they paid the consequences. This, I don't think is one of those moments. I don't think this is that moment.
C
Are you upset that every song was in Spanish?
D
I did not. I didn't get anything out of it. I don't know any of the songs. I don't know Spanish.
C
Devil's advocate. That's what he does.
D
I understand that.
C
That's like getting mad at Kendrick Lamar that every song he sang last year.
D
I'm not getting mad, so I'm not getting mad.
C
That's what he does. That's like saying, hey, I don't really like what Usher did two years ago, Adam. Because he did R B. That's what he does.
D
I'm not. I'm not. I'm not upset. I'm disappointed. Because you know what, Adam? I wasn't even gonna watch the damn thing. I'm watching it because I'm with them and I want to hang out and be with. With people that we know. But then when it's halftime and I'm sitting there for however long it was, I don't know his songs.
B
I don't.
D
I don't know Spanish. What am I getting out of now?
C
You know him now.
D
But what I'm saying is these aren't decisions that are just, oh, whoops, we just messed up the mulvane. You know, they know what they're doing.
C
NFL is regretting this decision. They woke up today seeing the ratings, seeing the game. Do you think they're regretting this?
A
Not at all.
B
Not at all. I don't care. I. I don't care.
C
Not at all.
B
No.
C
Even with Turning Point USA taking no.
B
No, by the way, here's how. Here's how life works. Somebody had to eventually do it. I have so much respect that TP USA chose to do something because it could have been a massive flop. Massive flop. By the way, at what number would you have said, okay, good for them if they had a million livestream, would you have been like, damn, that's pretty good?
D
That's pretty good?
B
They did 5.8 million live streams. I think it's the second or third highest live stream ever on YouTube anyone's ever done. And number one was a country, India. It's not like it's easy to do something like that.
C
So the NFL should be worried.
B
I agree with the part that you're saying, but also the NFL. Here's. Here's the problem. Like, so remember, what is NFL trying to do? What is the NBA trying to do? Who is their competition? What is NBA and NFL's competition? Who do they look at as competition? One sport. No, it's one sport. Soccer. Soccer.
C
Around the world. I mean, globalize, dude.
B
What did. What did Ronaldo get paid last year? Rob, can you pull up Ronaldo's contract in Saudi. What was Ronaldo's contract in Saudi? Watch this. You ready? What is Ronaldo's contract in Saudi? And then I want you to go ask what mess. Look at this. Ronaldo's contract in Saudi was what it was, you know, is it pulling up.
C
Million, something crazy like that, right?
B
It makes no sense. It's a two and a half year contract for $500 million.
C
200 million.
B
He gets paid $200 million a year.
A
250. That's euros.
B
Yeah. Do you. That's right. Euros. 250. So $600 million. So do you not think NBA players are like, man, when are we going to make 200 million a year? Well, guess what? We got to make the sport international. Do I think Roger Goodell is going to sit there and think about losing the 7% while he's trying to gain India, China, Europe, Brazil, South, Central America? I don't know how they're thinking in their marketing meetings. I don't know if they're so who cares about the conservatives? It's 7%. Let's go get China. Let's go get this. That's the part that I don't know what their marketing team is thinking about.
C
You're absolutely right, by the way. And I'll give you data. How many games were played not in the country this year? Mexico, London, Berlin. They've been doing this for a while, expanding their audience. So it's not a secret that the NFL is trying to globalize their league are. Because you're absolutely right to use some data. If they lose 7%, but they gain 25%, you know, that's a net win for the NFL.
B
By the way, Rob, can you still go to the previous poll or No, I cannot.
A
I can tell you the results.
B
So I know that 16,000 people voted. Don't tell the results. Give them the option. I want to see what they think. People voted as sure.
A
The options were. Which super bowl halftime show did you watch? Bad bunnies, turning point USAs. I watched both or I watched neither.
B
What do you think was first?
C
This is our audience.
B
Our audience.
C
Oh, our audience.
B
So Bad Bunny, Turning Point usa. Both. Neither. Vinnie, which one do you think is first? What's last?
D
I'm sorry, say the question again.
B
Okay. Which super bowl halftime show did you watch? Bad Bunny, Turning Point usa. Both. Neither. What do you think they said? Both. Both was first place.
D
Our audience.
B
Tom, what do you think they said?
A
I think the number one is I'm going to go 40, 45%. TPUSA was number one, our audience.
B
Okay, and then what's last?
A
Last is neither.
B
Last is neither. Okay. Adam, what do you say?
C
Our audience, 60 to 70 watched Turning Point, 30 to 40 watched Super bowl, and very few watched neither.
D
I. I think people watch. Audience watch.
A
So that adds up to 100. Okay.
B
Show it, Rob.
A
I can tell.
D
I don't.
B
Okay, go ahead.
A
So it was 40 TP USA 30, NFL 25 both. And then. I'm sorry, 20 both, 10, neither.
C
So who won?
B
TPUSA 40 and then Super bowl was 30% that they watched it.
C
But you know what's so impressive?
B
What's this?
C
Who are the people that were on Turning Point? USA halftime show, Kid Rock, and name the other names. I don't know exactly. Kid Rock hasn't had a hit in 20 years, bro. This is something that is what I'm.
B
Trying to say, what I'm trying to do. Flirting to see if this could work.
C
They could have said, listen, it's country music X, jazz music Y, folk music Z. Like, the performers were irrelevant. They came as almost like defiance to the NFL.
B
Yeah.
C
They don't have big names here. I've never heard of any of these names. I've heard them sing. They're great, but I don't know any of these people. Kid Rock. What's the last big song that he had? Ball with the ball. The banger. Bang.
B
You're right.
C
25 years ago.
B
That's. That's why I say in my mind, like, if I'm a. As a business owner, what would we do? Do you test first and then you say, Whoa, we had 5.8 million guys. Let's put $20 million into it next year. Then you go get a. And then you put a show. You do certain. Certain festivities. Activities. So you can both come and watch the game, and you can come, like, maybe next year, you rent out an arena and you play. Get the license from Godell to play the T game on the TV and then do performance there internally so you can watch it? That's probably the model that I would do to mix it up for next year.
C
This is what you talk about with leaks and opportunities.
B
Yeah.
C
Shout out to the BDC crew.
B
Right?
C
If you're the NFL and you're going through your business model, leaks and opportunities, you're thinking, leak, dude, we're leaking a whole audience over here. Turning Point is looking this as an opportunity, and they capitalized on it, and they scored.
B
I agree. I agree. So, to me, that was an. By the way, did you see trans stuff with Bonnie?
C
No.
B
Did you see LGBTQ stuff?
C
No.
A
Yeah, there was.
B
There was one moment I saw that.
D
But it was very fast.
B
BLM stuff. Did you see any BLM stuff? Okay. Is that because NFL didn't want to do it, or is that because Trump has been pushing and challenging and everyone's getting their act together? What do you think it is? You think it's a little bit of both?
D
Of course.
B
Okay. They're learning what to do. All right, so let me go to the next one. By the way, last night when we were talking to Luis Nieto, Taylor's fiance, Luis Nieto is also with Bedevic Consulting. And a man, he's telling me, he says, patrick, you know what's the one thing that I noticed? I said, what's that? He says, when we went to America Business Forum, you know, the American Business Forum event, we went to Sushi spot. We went to Sky Sushi. Sexy Sushi, whatever it's called.
C
Sexy.
B
So when we went there, he says there was two speakers that came up in he. That only did Spanish. He says, we're in the arena. He says the Javier Milei interview was only Spanish. He says, Messi's interview was only Spanish. He says, the moment they hit the stage, the. It was a mass exodus. Everybody left. Okay? Everybody left because they don't understand what people are saying. So he's like, the audience is watching the Super Bowl. They're like, dude, I don't. I don't know what you're singing. I don't know what you're singing. Could Bad Bunny have done one song in English to just kind of do it? You know what I mean? Like, if he would have done that, I think it would have been. Been cool to kind of do it unifying. But by the way, let me tell you, trust me, I was critical of them choosing Bad Bunny. And. And again, isolate. Bad Bunny didn't do anything. Anything wrong. They gave him the job. He didn't go, say, I better do it to. The NFL chose Bad Bunny. Jay Z chose Bad Bunny. Do you know at the end when he held the football, what it said on the football?
C
What it said?
B
Did you see what he said on the football? Can you show what it said on the football at the end? Bad money. Here's what he said at the end.
D
With the football that he spiked together, we.
B
That he spocked. That spiked at the end. If you look at the football all the way at the end. All the way at the end. Can you. If you just go at the end, go back a little bit, you're about to see right there. He come up a little bit. Is he gonna show it? Okay. If you just go on on online, Rob, and just type in bad bunny football message images to see what it says, I think it's actually a pretty encouraging message on what he put on the football at the end. This was a very suspense right now.
C
What is it?
B
You got to see what it says. Zoom in together. We are America.
C
That's great.
B
It's good.
C
That's amazing.
B
I think that's good. I think that's good that he put the message on what he did and don't.
C
This is very symbolic. And I want to ask you a question. I know you want to move on. They had the American flag first, but they had all these other flags. In my opinion, that's a great thing. You got to make the American flag a hundred times bigger than all these other countries. Respect to Puerto Rico, respect to Cuba, respect to Haiti, respect to Jamaica, respect to Venezuela, yada yada, yada Dominicana. You put the American flag a thousand times bigger when you do something like this. And then you can have all the other flags. The issue is don't put every other flag the same size as the American flag.
B
It's a very valid.
C
And then here's the question I have for you. There's two major major sporting events that people tune into where they watch a show. The super bowl and the opening to the Olympics. Do you remember the opening to the parents Olympics?
B
Embarrassing.
C
Embarrassing. Trans Jesus.
B
Absolutely.
C
How would you compare contrast Italy literally like one through ten.
B
What that was.
C
No, no, no, no, no. You see Italy's opening, Winter Olympics, nobody watches. But the Summer Olympics, when they did Trans Jesus and all that, give that a score, maybe a perception versus the.
B
NFL, by the way, that's why it's under a Biden administration. Do you wait till you see the opening of the World cup in the US what it's going to look like?
C
Oh, it's going to be ridiculous.
B
Who's in charge of that? What do you think's happen, Trump? You're going to see the most ridiculous show being put up there because it's him. Okay, let me get to a couple other things. Your commercials. Rob, can we go to let's go to 50 cents commercial because I just want to see your reaction, Vinnie. Okay. I just want to see your. And I, I, I have a feeling you guys gonna get it instantly. This guy is so funny. Rob, go for it. It's come to my attention that everyone's.
D
Calling me a troll.
B
Some said even King of Trolls. First of all, I'm flattered, but I'm done with all that. I would never do a deal with Doordash and quite literally deliver beef when millions of people are watching. I mean, who would do something like that? Delivering quality beef is more of an art than science. Don't want to be too obvious. It's all about timing, and I'm always on time. Oh, they sell combs. What a coincidence.
D
No matter what kind of beef you.
B
Have going on this weekend, remember, Doordash delivers. And you know what goes great with beef? A bottle of this beautiful Branson cognac. Aged four years or 50 months.
D
Who's keeping count? I got all of it, of course.
B
Did you get all of them? Beef? Who's abc Beef? ABC is Mayweather. Remember he used to say, mayweather doesn't know how to read.
D
He said a Harry Potter. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
B
Dennis the Comb. Puffy combs, right? And it says four to four. You know, 50 months or something. Who's counting four years? He's going to jail.
C
Exactly.
B
Dud, the way the fact that the NFL allowed this and they chose to do this Door Dash, that's a risky commercial.
D
I know.
C
50 Cent has now transcended hip hop and he's become a culture icon. Two guys come to mind that have done this. Snoop Dogg, arguably the most famous American in the world other than Trump, and now 50 Cent. And 50 Cent has made a living on just trolling everybody and clowning everybody. And he's getting the last laugh. Do you think Diddy's thinking right now in jail, watching the super bowl, seeing that? Oh, you. 57.
B
Can you imagine? Diddy's in jail watching 57?
C
Everybody's like, of course.
B
Yeah. Everyone's like, hey, man, that's not cool. You know, why would he do such a thing? You know, I don't like 50 doing stuff like. And then some people are probably taking shots, you know, for sure. What you think about the commercial?
D
I love, to be honest with you on Face. I never really pay attention to it. That. The subliminal messages, it's pretty freaking. You think he wrote it? You think he wrote it or.
B
I don't know. If he had an idea, I think somebody may have given it to him and he said, hey, I sponsored this. I endorse this.
C
He'll take credit for it.
B
Coinbase. Coinbase Again, Again. We can't play it, Rob, because it's singing, right? Yeah, we can't play. But you know what Coinbase did? Coinbase literally put up a commercial Singing a song that everybody know. And Vinnie. Adam, let me tell you what's going on. I'm literally sitting there and, you know, we got people over at the house. And next thing you know, first Joel sings the lines. I'm like, why is he singing these songs? Then Vinnie's singing. Then, you know, five people here are singing. All of a sudden, 25 people are singing this song. And I'm saying, God, a question for you. Better answer now. Am I original? Yeah. Am I the only one? Yeah. By the way, still nobody knows what's going on. What the hell is going on?
D
Everybody.
B
Right?
C
Yeah.
B
So sorry, by the way, this is going on. And then it's at the end. What does it show?
D
Coinbase.
B
Brilliant. I posted, I tweeted online and I said, hey, Rob, can you go to. This is. This is when, you know the marketing team is working double time. I went online and I said, listen, give Coinbase. Give the Coinbase marketing to a massive raise. They crushed it again. Everyone was singing. Now go. Go to the bottom. And look who commented. Coinbase.
D
Yeah, that's actually awesome.
B
So. Meaning they're doing it right.
D
Great.
B
They're doing it right. I want it that.
C
How much you think they paid Backstreet Boys to use their song?
D
Millions. It's a lot.
C
Worth every penny.
B
Worth every penny.
D
Oh, by the way, amazing.
C
If they say to Backstreet Boys, we're gonna give you 10 million. Backstreet Boys isn't gonna negotiate. They'd be like, we'll take the money. They need the money. If not, we'll go contact, see if.
B
We can find out how much they paid him. I actually don't think it's that much money.
D
Probably a million you can do.
B
Yeah, I think it's.
A
I think it's a couple more than.
C
A million for the. How much for a Super bowl ad?
A
You can find out what this is. But how many. How many acts find out that the record label or the clearinghouse, ascap, bmi, that your. Your music got licensed and then they're upset about it? I do not like the fact that my.
C
What they give them. Pat, you know what this is for.
B
The box for 60 seconds. Yeah, I know, but what did they pay? Does it say how much? It doesn't disclose. All right, all right.
C
You know what? This is for the Backstreet Boys?
B
Very.
C
It's like you doing a YouTube video. It's an annuity.
B
This song got them downloads on. On Apple.
C
I mean, this is a song that hasn't been relevant in 20 something years. And they're still making money on it.
D
Bad thing about it, guys, they. If I'm not mistaken, they weren't playing the actual. No, it was silent. You were just singing along. And just because they're putting the lyrics and they changed it, I don't think you have to pay them.
B
Did they just put together.
D
I think it was. No, hold on. I don't think there was beats. We were just watching and singing. It was quiet.
B
Are you hearing music or what are you hearing, Rob?
C
What do you mean?
B
Can you do it on your own?
D
This wasn't. I don't even know if there was playing, guys.
A
So it's back. It's like karaoke music.
D
It's the backing karaoke. It's not even their actual song.
A
You'll hear them, like in the chorus section, but it's done so that the person singing like karaoke is the prominent voice.
D
If it's not.
C
Thanks, Rob. I want to rock your body if it's.
D
Yeah, yeah. That's all that was happening. I don't know if they had to pay full price.
B
Listen.
D
Even better for them.
B
Anything else? Any other commercial or something that stuck out? Tom, Anything else you saw that you liked? The Levi's commercial was okay, right? I didn't think, Vinnie, you were too crazy about it. Anything else? The Levi's commercial, The prostate cancer.
D
The prostate commercial was pretty funny.
A
That was funny. I really liked Budweiser.
B
They did an Epstein commercial.
A
Yes, the victim. Victims.
B
Wait, they did a Super Bowl Epstein commercial?
D
Yeah, yeah.
B
They did an existing commercial in the Super Bowl.
D
Yes. Which is. This is what the left wants.
B
I haven't seen this, so go ahead.
C
It better not be to the tune of Rock your body.
B
After years of being kept apart. We're standing together. Standing, standing together.
D
Because this girl deserves the truth. Because she deserves the truth.
A
Because we all deserve the truth.
B
Damn.
D
And who paid for it? Was it. Was it Soro?
C
They call out Pam Bondi specifically and.
D
Mind you, by name.
B
Who?
D
Rob, if you can find out.
B
What does a QR code go to, Rob? Where does a QR code go to?
A
Let me take a look.
D
Yeah. I'm curious to.
B
Who funded this, where this thing goes to.
C
Keep that there.
D
And so, Pat, why. Why you guys are doing that?
A
World without exploitation.
D
Matt. Matt Walsh. Matt Walsh tweeted or responded to this because Jim Acasa pointed it and he said for those claiming that they. They can't name names because they'll be sued, they could simply give the names to any of their many and mostly very recent advocates in Congress, who could read the names out loud from the floor, insulating themselves and these women from litigation, but they refused to do so.
A
Why?
D
And then Elon Musk tweeted on top of it and said, I will pay for the defense of anyone who speaks the truth about this and is sued for doing so. So Elon is stepping up and I just. By the time, while Pat's looking it up, it was kind. Isn't it weird? Like, all these files have been released? The three million. Okay, no, girl. None of the names of these victims have been released. Why is it that all the names of all the emails of the men who were involved are redacted? Can somebody explain that to me? I. I don't want any young females names, I hope, you know, litigation and everything happens for them and justice is done. How are we ever going to get justice if the government is blacking out every pedophile, underage pervert, whatever his name? Can you explain that to me?
A
This isn't about two people. This is about hundreds of people and hundreds of people making thousands of calls trying to keep this out. That's what's going on. Everybody that's involved that knows they're involved is screaming from the rooftops, quietly through their lawyer, trying to get things redacted, get it held back. This is every. All of these hundred people are in a big circle, and they're all lifting up a gun, pointing it to the head of the person next to them. Everybody in the circle dies as soon as the first person takes a shot. And that's exactly what's going on here. And so it's not a mystery to me. The people that are in the files don't want them to release. And there's a lot of people putting a lot of pressure from a lot of directions. It's horrifying. It's horrifying. And these are victims coming out later saying, I was exploited. I was there. I'm in the files. My picture is showing up in the files. All of this, you know, and we want justice and we want something to happen. This is where we are. This is why Americans. I go back to the same three things that I look at in terms of polling. Americans overwhelmingly feel there are two systems of justice. Americans overwhelmingly feel that when this comes out at this level, nothing will happen. And Americans overwhelmingly have a sub 20% approval rating of Congress and a sub 17, 15% approval rating of mainstream media.
D
Yes.
A
That tells you all you would know. So everybody who doesn't have power, you know, 300 million of them, 330 million of them. Once the. Once the 30,000 or so. If you add up the lawyers, everybody to do something and it's not going to happen. And that's why people are upset.
D
Oh, Tom. Unredact. You're not showing the guys that were involved their emails.
B
Good.
D
That's what we want to see. Why. Why are you hiding that? You know, I don't want to see any girls names. Who was the dude that was saying I want a. A little kid and I want to do this. And you know who? Epstein. I saw another one, pat. He's buying 33 gallons of. Of sulfuric acid. What is that for? Who is that person? And you know what bothers me, Tom? If they don't unredact them, who's to say? Because by the way, I used to drink, right? I'm done. I'm finished with the pet. Sometimes I see people drinking, I'm like, yeah, you know, ma', am, I remember those times. There's no AA for pedophiles and people that are sick like that. So if you think they've stopped doing it, you're crazy. There's not another Epstein island pet. But they're somewhere doing that again. That sickness doesn't stop. So for them. For the government to black out the names. Why are you doing that? You're protecting them. I want to see these people. We deserve it.
C
3 million.
D
Congratulations. Good for. I think that ad is a little bit messed up because why did Democrats care about these 3 million files the past four years?
B
Who funded that? Who funded that ad?
D
If I had to guess, I saw something with either open society. Allegedly. I think George Soros and somebody else paid for that commercial if I'm not mistaken. Rob, but that's what I'm saying. You think those guys stopped sleeping with underage girls? Are you crazy?
B
Who is it, Rob?
A
It says while the the direct funding details for the ad are not publicly itemized, similar prior campaigns were financially supported by LinkedIn co founder Reid Hoffman.
B
Weird.
D
Weird.
B
Hoffman acknowledged publicly acknowledge his role in funding the earlier ad to push the Epstein Falcon transparency. Really? And even Elon's gone after Hoffman, right? About his link to Epstein. So Elon is saying he will fund and finance the. Rob, what did Thomas Massie say? Because Thomas Massie said if they don't drop the names, I will, right? Didn't he say something like that?
A
Right here.
B
Okay, go for it.
D
Ready to do that? If the victims want me to.
B
They believe that the best way to.
D
Get justice is to force the DOJ to release these Names. I've already read one name in a committee with. With the FBI director there. That's Jess Staley. And again, he may or may not be guilty, but he's been accused by these victims.
B
The lawyer tells me. And there are other names.
D
I don't have them in my possession, but if the victims want to give them to me, I've expressed that I'm willing to do that.
B
But again, the best way is to force the DOJ to release those names.
D
On those 302 forms.
B
Wow. Got it. So he's pushing them to release, or else I'm going to release. So, Rob, what do we know about the names that haven't been leaked, the contacts, and the additional 3 million files? What do we know about that?
A
So, apparently Congress is getting the 3 million redacted files that were released last week.
B
Yep.
A
Unredacted. But when they go in, they're not allowed to have any devices with them. They are allowed to take notes on anything they see in those files, but they're not allowed to take photographs.
B
So not public to us, just public to them to see.
D
And then the other 3 million remaining.
A
Files are never going to see the light.
B
Never.
A
That's according to the Department of Justice. They are not releasing those other.
B
Did they explain why or. No?
A
No, not that I'm aware of. I don't know if you guys have seen anything else, but that's. That's the latest that I read.
B
Can you check to see if there's an argument of why they didn't want to Release the additional 3 million files? When it comes down to the Epstein files, why would they not want to Release the additional 3 million? Look, Thomas Massey's pushing the envelope to find out what's going on. Good for him. A lot of people want to know, and I think he's creating the pressure. Again, this goes back to. This was the biggest fumble of the Trump administration. And the responsibility keeps going back to Bondi. The responsibility keeps going back to Bondi. That name keeps me. You can say whatever you want, even as a conservative say no, but it's not this. But it's not that. This could have been handled in a very different way. Okay, when. When. When we had Jared here and he says this was one of the campaign promises. No, it wasn't.
C
Jared Mosque.
B
Yeah. It was never his promise. It was a Cash Patel promise. Yeah, it was Pam Bondi promise, but it was never a Trump promise. So that was fumbled with the team where they were not on the same page. On the way was done. What does it say, Rob, on why the additional is not being released?
A
Victim, privacy and safety, illegal content, legal privileges and exemptions and then ongoing investigations.
B
Got it, Adam.
C
Well, here's what's really going on here. Did you see this news of who's willing to speak now? Bill Clinton. Did you see this story?
B
Yes.
C
So we talked about last week when Hillary Clinton said, yeah, let's do it, let's not do it anything in private. Let's go. Now you got Bill Clinton, who? If there's any name that has been more seen with Epstein than anybody, it's Bill Clinton. He says the following. I have called for the full release of the Epstein files. I provided a sworn statement of what I know, and just this week I've agreed to appear in person before the committee. But it's still not enough for Republicans in the House Oversight Committee. He also said this. If we want to do this, if they really want answers, let's stop playing the games and do this the right way. In a public hearing where American people can see for themselves what it's really about. Enough with this kangaroo court. When Bill Clinton answers the call and says, yeah, I'll meet you after school at 3 o', clock, you better take him up on his word here, because this is what America wants to see. Isn't this what you want to see?
D
Yeah, but if you want some must.
C
See tv, if you want accountability, Bill, Hillary Gates, this person, that person, get them in a room, ask him the questions. Because you know who's the one person you're not going to be able to ask questions? Epstein. Despite what Candace Owens thinks that he's alive in Tel Aviv somewhere. He's probably dead, guys. Can we agree about that?
D
Probably.
A
I'm sorry you missed Hillary at the Benghazi hearings.
B
Yeah. What do you mean?
A
Tom, go back and look at Hillary at the open hearing that was filmed. Look what's going to happen.
D
Nothing.
A
Look at.
C
By the way, I didn't miss that. Of course, I saw that 20 years ago. But that's different from this. Nobody cared about Benghazi. They made Benghazi a big issue. Everybody cares about Epstein.
D
Wait, hold on. You don't. Wait.
B
So those two things are not.
D
Well, you can't say Benghazi wasn't an issue because she.
C
What's a bigger issue, Epstein or Benghazi? Just say one more.
D
Hold on, Adam. Give me one. Let me talk about congressional hearings.
A
That's what it was about.
D
She gave that Benghazi. Oh, my God, here we go, Adam. Soldiers.
A
Such a punk.
D
That's a bigger issue, Adam. There's such a bigger issue. As a soldier, as a military soldier.
C
I just found out.
B
Do you know.
D
Do you know what she. Hold on, Adam. I'm saying I could deal with issues separately. What she did at Benghazi, she ignored all the calls from Chris Stevens, all right? He got freaking killed. And he was begging for help, but she was emailing Sydney Blumenthal about Libya and all that stuff.
A
And they had all that. What happened?
D
Nothing happened. Hold on, Adam. Let me finish what you're saying.
C
Running a.
D
You think.
C
You think they just volunteered to.
D
Adam, I'll wait for you to finish. Take the win talking nonsense.
A
They didn't volunteer.
D
Tell me when you want me to talk. Tell me when you want me to talk. Never. Okay, guess what? Obviously such a bully.
C
You can't have a debate.
D
The two of you are arguing with me.
C
Who's the bully? The one guy or the two guys?
A
Oh, come on.
B
Let them make their point because I.
D
Want to see guys when wife screaming. Just let me finish my point. You think Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton saying we'll do it out in the open. You think they're being serious? Just like Reid Hoffman paying for a commercial for the. For the survivors going, we want to say something. They all know they'll never come out because that means everybody has to come out. There has to be discovery for everybody. Bill Clinton is never going to talk. He's never going to go out in the open and talk. They're going to put him in a room, Adam, because none of them get in trouble. And this is why God did what he did in the Old Testament, because of heathens and demons like this. Adam, this is it. This is flooding. Destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. This is the flooding of the world because evil was in charge. Okay. What you tend. I could separate what Hillary did sitting like this in Congress and she said, what difference does it make? That United States soldiers died because she was crappy at her job. I could differentiate that and Bill Clinton, who's the most prolific guy on all the visits, all the White House, all the emails, all the videos we saw with him with all these.
B
Yeah.
D
And what are we. What are we talking about? So you can't. Bill Clinton saying, this dude on the open. He knows they'll never do it because he's the guy. He's the culprit. Okay. You're never going to find out about John Podesta and his brother and all the. You can hear that.
A
You'll hear names.
D
Oh, yeah.
C
You're going to hear. Can I ask this a question now? Since they listened?
D
Yes.
B
Okay.
C
I'm not going to yell to make my point. No.
D
Well, I have to yell. Could you.
A
Wow, there's a verse.
C
Do you want to see Bill or Hillary testify, yes or no?
D
Absolutely. Are you going to see them in public? Never, Adam. They're going to put them in a basement and they're all. Adam, they're all in it together.
C
Yes or no Question.
D
Are they going to testify where? In public.
C
Do you want to see them publicly testify, yes or no?
D
Then we're on the same Will it happen? I'm being realistic.
C
I'm not going down the path of will it happen? Let them agree upon it first and let's see what happens.
D
But let me ask you that. Do you think. I don't. Here's my question. What's the percentage? Let me say this. What's the percentage, honestly, that Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton are gonna sit an open forum, like how she did a Benghazi and she's. They're gonna say this. Okay, go ahead. Go ahead. What? Oh, yeah, Bill flew the island. Was he with an underage girl?
B
Maybe.
D
I plead the Fifth. What's the percentage of them doing it in front of a camera?
C
Of course they're gonna deflect, but, like.
D
No, they're going to do it and.
C
Have your cake and eat it.
D
That's not the question I asked.
C
Do you want them to testify or no?
D
Yes. And then you didn't answer it there. Answer my question and then let Congress.
C
Ask them the tough question.
D
Yeah, I trust Congress.
C
Then he's not coming in and asking.
D
Hey, Bill, are you a demon or not?
C
Do you want them to testify or not?
D
Okay, I think if the Clintons are.
A
Agreeing to be there, there's something wrong.
C
On the same page.
D
Let me answer my question. What's the percentage in your mind that they're actually going to go in front of a camera and do it? Give me your percentage.
C
Well, let's get to the.
D
You're not answering the. Answer the question or is it going to happen? Because I'll tell you right now, it's zero.
C
Okay, so zero. So don't even.
D
You're lying to yourself. You're lying to yourself.
C
We're both agreeing that we want to see him testify, but you're going on a ridiculous diet.
B
There's a lot. There's a lot.
C
Why they shouldn't testify.
B
There's a lot that's been said. I will tell you, when Benghazi happened, that Was a massive deal at the time, of course, but it was a mass. By the way, it's not Epstein. You're right, but even a few months ago, six months ago, whatever the timeline was, you're the same person that said I could care less about Epstein. This is not on the priority list. This is not this. This is not that I want to be.
A
Thank you.
C
Still. It's still not in my.
B
I understand, but. But for you to say Epstein is bigger than Benghazi. Benghazi was massive when it happened. Because we lost our guys. Yep. And then when she made that one comment after eight or nine hours, guys, and she said, what difference does it make? We all saw that.
C
Rob, please run a poll and ask our audience what they care about more.
B
Oh, it's Epstein. Oh, he ran it already. He already ran it. It's Epstein. Of course it's Epstein.
C
What were the results?
A
3,000 people have voted. 65%. Clinton's Epstein testimony, 35%.
B
No, we. No, no.
D
What do you mean, what am I.
B
We agree. But at the times, you have to realize, if you ask. Flip it. Say Epstein was 10 years ago. Benghazi is today. What's more important? People are typically going to vote for whatever's current today instead of what was 10 years ago.
C
Ask them what's bigger, Epstein or Covid.
B
Let's see what they said. That's exactly the point. It's going to go to whatever.
C
I would hope that it's Covid.
B
It is. It's. No, it's not.
D
It's going to be present right now.
B
It's hot right now. It's what they're going to choose anyways. Okay, so we'll see what's going to happen here. I mean, look, I like the fact that Massey's pushing. Okay. And. And this whole thing with what's his name, you know, Epstein being alive or not being alive and, you know, the pictures that are going around with him. What percentage do you say that he.
C
Is alive, walking around in public?
B
What percentage do you say he's alive?
C
The closest number to zero possible.
B
Okay.
C
Oh, 1%.
D
Honestly? Yeah, because they took 30 seconds out. And when you. They. They never showed his photo of his body. They always showed a crazy. What do you say? 20. He's probably walking around. 20. 20% in post. Show me the 30 seconds. That's an AI.
A
I think there's less than 5% chance he's still walking around.
B
Well, okay, so that's kind of where you want to be.
A
They said the same thing, by the way. They said the same thing about Ken Lay. Ken Lay went to Colorado, died, and he was Bush's friend. He was cremated in Colorado and then he disappeared. And. Oh, is he really walking around in Belize? The conspiracy.
B
Let me tell you a couple things.
A
It started with Elvis. Elvis is.
B
So let me tell you a couple things. So yesterday, Benny Johnson posts a picture. Okay, Rob, if you can pull up Benny Johnson's picture. This, this. You have to realize what world we're living in. Benny Johnson go on his Instagram account. I don't know if it's going to be on their. Benny Johnson post this picture that was going viral all over the place. Okay. And when you looked at this picture right there, you see how bad bunny to the left burning the American flag.
D
Yeah.
B
Click on that. Okay, look at that picture. Coming soon to halftime. I don't like that.
C
Is that a real picture?
B
No, it's not. Oh, but that's the point. The first reaction you had is, is that a real picture? How many people you think believe that's a real picture? How many people you think when they see that on Benny's follow and think that's a real picture? Yeah, that's a deep fake picture. So we're living in a time. And by the way, there's another one that he's stepping out and all this other stuff. We're living in a time that you have to look at everything and have grog double check with Chad gbt. Because one of them, like, look, even, even the video with the President that posted, you know which video I'm talking about the video with, you know, in the jungle, the mind, that whole video. Okay. And you have to watch the video, Rob, if you want to put this video. So they probably didn't QC this, click on this, Rob little play machine that counts of votes.
A
A telet 4G wireless chip manufactured in Taiwan.
B
Watch this, folks. Embedded other board.
A
The voting machine tapes clearly indicate modem.
D
Engagement and transmission of election data. Some of the anomalies that we noticed in the 2020 general elections, that five key states all stopped counting at a.
A
Certain time in these key battleground states.
D
These were all where the software machines were used, the smartmatic.
A
So when the vote stopped counting, and.
D
This has been noted in other countries.
A
As well, President Trump was significantly ahead when reporting and counting resumed. There was a massive spike occurred that.
B
That favored Joe Biden. Okay, so then that video comes up. Okay, so guess what? The President didn't do that in qc. The whole thing at the end. And they retweeted that video okay. And the President was asked about it, by the way, if you've seen the whole video, Rob, if you can play the whole video. But the music I would love without the music. Okay. And just visualize, you know, that the song is being played on the background. Just turn off the music. Go ahead. So that's Barack and Michelle. Okay. And then it goes to Hillary Clinton. Is that Jeffries? Yeah. Aocn. Is that Newsom? Yeah, that's a bad newsome. That's Pritzker and what's his name? Schumer and Mamdani. Okay. Biden and Kamala Turtle. Okay. It's funny. Jeffries is back singing. Okay. And then there's a lion in the jungle. Okay. The President shows up. He's the lion. Who's that? The pig. Is that anybody, Rob, or.
D
No, it's a content creator.
C
Check.
B
Okay, got it. So anyway, so is. Yeah, so. So you get. You got. So this is the whole clip. Whoopi is also in there. Anyways, they're not missing anybody. You can pause it right there. So this video is posted. Okay. How much you think the President knew, by the way? Here's his reaction to it. Go ahead, Rob. But I spoke to Tim Scott. He was great. Tim is a great guy. He understood that 100%. Go ahead. Yeah, Tim Scott said this the most racist thing he's ever seen. I think that's what he said.
A
And then this is the full comment.
B
Go for it. So do you have any questions?
D
Mr. President, Media Post that you took down earlier today, the White House says.
C
That a staffer sent it who sent it and are you going to fire it?
B
No, I looked at it. I saw it and I just looked at the first part. It was about voter fraud in some place. Georgia. There was a lot of voter for 2020 voter fraud. And I didn't see the whole thing. I guess during the end of it, there was some kind of a. People don't like. I wouldn't like it either, but I didn't see it. I just. I looked in the first part and it was really about voter fraud in and the machines, how crooked it is, how disgusting it is. Then I gave it to the people to generally they look at the whole thing, but I guess somebody didn't. And they posted and we took it down and we. But that was a voter fraud that nobody talks about. They don't like to talk about that post. We took it down as soon as we found out about it.
D
Mr. President, a number of Republicans are calling on you to apologize for that post.
C
Is that something you're going to do?
B
No, I didn't make a mistake. I mean, I give. I look at a lot of thousands of things and I looked at the beginning. You can pause it right there. Okay. Intentional, accidental. What do you think?
D
Well, first of all, whoever the. By the way, has anybody ever seen Donald Trump on a phone, on a cell phone, tweeting or nothing? As everybody knows, he's telling people what to do. They kind of write it in the moment, they edit it, and then they post it. From what you're seeing, it's somebody is watching a video and then they scroll and then they come back down by accident. I don't know when that AI video was made. The person puts their ad sign on there. But if you think about it, how much if that was just a regular video from Donald Trump, nobody would ever see the cheating video, correct? Yeah, they're cheating. The machines are rigged. 2020, we keep hearing stuff. Tulsi Gabbards in, in Georgia, they're. They're getting all these ballots now because of that. It might have been intentional. Because if you think about it now, everybody has to watch that video and hear about cheating. And then boom, that came up and then went away. So that means everybody. Democrat, Republican, Independent, you had to watch that video. So I. In a messed up way, it might have been intentional because now all the attention is there because when I watch that, Pat, I went. And another video came up from that on X. Rob, can you play this video? This was in 2020. Remember that jump that happened, that chart that went like this? And then Joe Biden got 100 hockey stick. A hockey stick, which is. It's never happened before. So that led me. Think about it. What if I don't know about any of this cheating? Rob, could you play this video really quick? This is from America Stans. And listen, listen to what this guy's saying.
B
There was not a Trump vote in.
D
There and you do not have a.
A
Place in any state. Well, maybe, maybe Dixville's notch where there.
B
Were five voters at the first thing and they all five voted for Biden. Maybe they know who that is. When you have 138,000, you don't all break that way. And it still shouldn't be linear because you have so many counters that are counting across the way that they're all tallying and reporting and you don't bunch them in and report one, one thing.
A
So that doesn't look right for the process.
B
It certainly does not look right for the fact that there is no Place David Bart.
D
Brilliant. And he basically. So think about this. I'm not saying it's a good thing that it happened, but you never know when it comes to this freaking administration. Because of that. That was the next video on my feed. And I went, wait a minute. That's actually that chart. It's impossible for that to happen. Which is the main part of the video is that they cheated in 2020.
B
Tom, what do you think? So they knew.
A
So did the President know? Thank you, Vinnie. So did the President know? Do I think he knew that there was a voter the Dominion video? Yeah, I think he knew that. And we've seen pictures of him sitting with the staffer talking about how the tone he'd like to have on certain tweets, they've actually. The White House has given America a glimpse into that to see how the President does it. But with everything that's going on and the number of tweets and a number of comms that comes out of the White House and it comes out on Truth Social. Does he see everyone? No, I think the person that put it there, I think that was a staff problem and put it up the back. They thought it would be funny. But it was the voter fraud tweet. I believe he knew about it, but I think the staffer blew it because that even when Trump trolls and trolls hard, you know, that's.
B
What percentage of. What percentage of his tweets you think he doesn't tweet?
A
I think there's probably a third to a half that are from comms that are on message. And then there's.
B
I disagree. I disagree. You know, you know, what's the. What, what platform? 100% of what's posted is me today. It could change in 10 years. 100 of everything you see on X is me. 100% of what you see from PBD podcast, Instagram, it's not me. Matter of fact, nothing on PBD podcast, Instagram, it's me. It's all stuff that's cut clip and it's posted there. Right. Personal Instagram. Today, I'm not that active on personal Instagram, but on personal Instagram, you know, if we do cut clips and I'll say post it, 90% of what you see on Instagram is me. 10% is because they cut it. They post it. Right? To me, I do think that's him. Then I have to go to the part about. Because, you know, you can't one side give credit and then the other side be like, well, no, you know, it's not. I don't think. No, I think. I think it's. And I'll tell them, I'll come to you. To me. I think it is him. The other part is it's not a big deal. Just put it in there. Do I think the trolling side of Trump would like to put that. Remember, that could have been any other animal. It could have been any other animal. Nobody would have reacted to it. It could have been on a dog, on a horse, on a it. Because it's monkey. It's what allows them to go back and do all this other stuff. Now, any other president would have known how to handle it. Trump knows how to handle it, and he moves on. And this will be a done story within the next couple days. And you got to give credit to Caroline Levitt that, Rob, you were bringing it up this morning. The fact that she said, hey, they're doing this after Dow hit 50,000 for the first time in the history of America and that day when AI was a massive drop in $600 billion of money was lost because of AI companies. Boom, recovered. Dow hits 50,000. But they kind of want to get away from that as well. So both can be right. I do think. Folks, let me tell you, we have 12 codes that we follow in the company here at BetDavid, consult at Valuetainment 12, okay? And we have a full on culture deck. When people that work with our company, they go through this culture deck. Rob, if you want to go to vtmerch.com for people that want to get a culture deck, people started asking about it, and we said, if you want to buy it, people can literally see what we do with our culture deck here for 20 bucks. It's the manual of what we do with our culture in our company. And One of the 12 points that we do here with the company. You know what it is? Qc everything. Qc, everything. We QC and finance, we QC in, you know, production. We QC and Bed, David Consulting and Manect, everything. And by the way, every single time there's a mistake, guess what happens? It's due to a what? A lack of qc. What's qc? Quality control. Right. We get it with every single clip. We've done a. There was a massive QC issue with. What was that interview we did in Brazil, Bolsonaro. There was a massive QC issue, guys. Rob, how massive was that one?
A
Oh, pretty bad.
B
Massive. Massive. So everybody makes these mistakes. But if you want to find out what it is, Rob, put the link below for people to be able to find it easily on the Culture deck. But for me, this is a QC issue. I put 80, 90% QC and there's 10% of me that he thought it would create enough noise. Vinny, going back to your point to say I think people will go look at the other stuff on seeing what happens. Adam, final thoughts.
C
I'll just say this, this was double dumb at the very least. At the very most, this was stupid and racist. So are you kidding me? I don't qc, whatever you want to call it, unforced error, shooting yourself in the foot. You're going to put a video where you want to draw attention to voter fraud and you're gonna put the Obamas as monkeys. Are you stupid? Somebody should be fired and that's fine. You know, I've been very acknowledging of how great I think the Trump administration is doing this might be up there with one of the dumbest things they've done. And I'll tell you why everyone accuses Trump of being racist. He's not racist. He's got black people. He's got Latino people. He's got gay person. Scott Besson. He's not racist. You hear the stories why he's not racist. But this is going to tell people, I told you it was racist. I told you he thought. And you, you. Are you kidding me? This is so stupid and bigoted and dumb. And I don't think this is Trump's fault. But heavy is the head that wears the crown. This is going to come to him. Now, nobody's talking about voter fraud. They're talking about what you did to the Obamas. And I'll give one last point to the Trump team. Go after the Clintons. Nobody cares. Go after Kamala. She's a fool. Go after Sleepy Joe. Stop attacking the Obamas. But there's no benefit to attacking the Obamas. Whether you disagree with them politically or not, they're still beloved in America among black people, among liberals. There's even some conservatives that at least respect the type of father he is, type of person he is. So there's a lot of people that.
B
Are upset by this guy yesterday. Guy mine next me yesterday and he said something very interesting to me yesterday. I don't want to give his name out because he's very active and it sends me some unique messages. He says, you noticed who wasn't on the Epstein files. I said, who? He says, notice Netanyahu wasn't in the Epstein files. I said, where are you going with this? I'm not doing none of these additional more Netanyahu is this Netanyahu is a great. All this other stuff. He says, no, he wasn't in the Epstein file. Do you know why? I said why? He said, Barack Obama worked so hard to make Israel's left win. Ehud Barak, was he a Republican or was he a Democrat? Would he be considered? He was more on the left. Was Epstein more on the left or the right? Was Clinton more on the left or the right? So if you notice a pattern here, okay, the people on pattern here, even Trump, when he had a relationship with Epstein. What side was Trump on when he had a relationship with Epstein? Back in the days when he would go. He was. He was on the left. Trump was a Democrat.
D
He openly said he. They gave him. He gave them money, of course, but.
B
He openly said he was a Democrat and then he chose to run as a Republican. So there, there's some. And by the way, the reason why. And then I asked him a question. I said, I get what you're saying with Netanyahu not being on the Epstein files, I said, guess what the liberals are also saying. What? Obama wasn't on the Epstein files. So where is that? It says, well, that was intentional because of this. So there's a lot of stuff. And then there's a lady that came out. I don't know if you guys saw this clip or not. Lady came out and said, rob, if you have this clip, she said, you're a loser if you weren't on the Epstein files. Did you guys see this clip?
C
No. No.
B
This lady comes out, Rob, I think you have it. I have it somewhere. Right. Right here. Go ahead, Rob, watch this. You got to do the audio again. Yeah. Everybody, that was very powerful. So, like if you were on the scene and you were powerful, like, to be honest, like, if you're not in those files, it would be an insult because it just means that you are.
C
A bit of a loser.
D
Right. So the people who aren't in the files.
C
Yes.
D
Okay. Are you in the files?
B
Well, of course I am, because it's.
C
Any journalist that wrote about it.
D
That's an astonishing attitude. Astonishing. And said it like that.
B
You impose it right there. Go ahead.
D
Well, Adam, we're talking about when you said, by the way, let me say this first, horrible, obviously, putting them monkeys and doing all that. And by the way, it was a scroll. It's not like they made the video. The video has been on the Internet for God knows how long.
C
You're the president, United States, buddy.
D
You should have 15 people checking your social media.
C
You already had a chance to say that. It was dumb. But now you want to retract.
D
No, I'm not saying that.
B
No, no.
D
I'm not retracting a damn thing. Because I'm about to check you for saying, don't mess up before you wreck yourself. Don't mess with the Obama.
A
Let him finish.
D
Don't mess with the Obamas. You talking about the same Obama that is the one that had the meeting at the White House with Hillary, with Brennan, with Comey and everybody and said, we're gonna take this fake dossier and we're gonna try to destroy and take the will away from the American people who voted for Trump. He was the one that was spying on him. He started all of it while he was still sitting in the White House. So guess what? To hell with Obama. He put us through five years of Russia collusion. Dude, I lost friends. I stopped talking. Family members started hating me. He's a pooing puppet, all that stuff. So the hell with him, okay? Obama, what he did to this freaking country, and the fact that Trump won fair and square. You want me to feel bad for Obama? For what he put us through, for everything that he did? Adam, I'm not condoning what was done. But you think Trump's going to apologize for anything when it comes to Obama? He made his life a living hell. And who was in charge during Biden administration? Who do you think? Remember when Obama said, if there was a way for me to put an earpiece in my ear and sit in the basement, that's what he was doing.
A
Have a third term, wouldn't that be interesting?
D
Wouldn't that be interesting? Who was in charge, Adam? So that. That's the reason where Trump is like, I don't give a damn about Obama, okay? He ruined him. He started the whole thing.
B
I think. I think. I think he has to go after Obama. Yeah, I think he has to go after Obama. And the reason why, Adam, I think he has to go after Obama is here's how this works. If you go for the head of the throne, if you go for the, you know, head of the snake, if you go for. Who is. Who is the top right now? It's not the Clintons.
A
No.
B
They're old timers, by the way. Even Democrats are no longer defending them. Who is left? Who does he have to destroy for the left to lose credibility? Don't forget, Obama did everything in his power to make sure these guys didn't win. He colluded on their election, on what was going on their campaign. This is a very. And Trump's not gonna forget the one thing about hardcore competitors. And I'm talking psycho competitors. Not competitors. Psycho competitors. I. I went up against this one guy in the insurance business. He was a psycho competitor. Both of us are. One day after the whole thing was done and the same company bought both of us, we're sitting there having conversation together, and we're reminiscing about the games both sides played. Yeah, okay. He's telling me his stuff. I'm like, listen, what she did there was very dirty. He starts cracking up. He starts cracking up. And I'm looking, I'm like, you know what you did? He's like, but you did this. But you. What about. About this? And what about. So we're kind of going back and forth. I'm like, look, I get it. But either way, it was nasty, right? I think, take the game out, take the cameras out. They're sitting together, they're laughing at each other. Okay? Meaning they're laughing together and they're telling these stories because they're both psycho competitors. But if you actually play the game, Trump has to destroy Obama. He has to. That idea has to be gone. The fact that his ideology and all, if he's playing the game for 2026, 2028, he has to do that. And the part that he doesn't have to do is this monkey business. This is stuff you don't have to. What are you doing? This is noise stuff. By the way, if I'm the opposing side, you just made it so easy for me to call you anything I want for 2026, 2028, midterms. It's easy. Now I can say you're racist. Now I can say this stuff. So I think that's a part of it where you don't want to give them an ounce. They're going to run with it. So that part I agree with. I want to get to the next story here. I'm going to get to the next story. Next story I want to get to, which is kind of weird. We've all been following the story very closely because it's tragic when you hear siblings sitting there and all of a sudden their mother is missing at. How old is she? 84 years old. What? And. And this incident happens. And then the more and more and more you keep seeing stuff, the link to when it happened, when the announcement was made, apparently the. The people that have. Their mother is now asking for, did you say rob? 6 million in Bitcoin is what they're asking for. And then there's a lot of There's a. We're willing to pay. We're willing to do this. We're willing to do that. Rob, which clip is this? This is.
A
This is Savannah Guthrie talking about paying the ransom.
B
Okay, go forward. Brian, go ahead. We received your message, and we understand. We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her. This is the only way we will have peace. This is very valuable to us, and we will pay. Okay, Vinnie, thoughts?
D
Okay. Well, obviously, tragic story, but at the end of the day, when something this massive happens, Tommy, I had to be like, why? Why her? Why Savannah on this level of this stage? And I just want people to know that there's a fact. Savannah Guthrie, she's in the Epstein files. Rob, can you please put this up? Rob, can you show it? And by the way, this is all my assumption. This is all my allegation, but she's in the Epstein files. And if you go up, Rob, right there, this is. I don't know who this is. Pat, I'm assuming, because they redacted everything on the. On the highlighted yellow and keep going down. Click on that one right there. Pat, if you read this, they obviously black redacted everything.
B
And see anything you can read.
D
I got you. Just wanted to give you a heads up. She's done another interview with Savannah Guthrie. I'm assuming they're talking about Virginia Giuffre in that she said the following. She was interviewed by the FBI in 2011 by a blank in the interview, she gave the names of all the girls she helped to traffic. All right. She also interviewed the sdny, no time frame. Two other women also tell DOJ that Epstein specifically trafficked them to other men. Number four. There are cameras in the New York City house and others where he could watch people in the bathroom and elsewhere. Their plan to air it on today and this Friday's Dateline. Okay. Another fact. Savannah Guthrie is the first mainstream television journalist to interview an Epstein survivor. And then in 2015, again, this is all my speculation, Pat. I'm just out there going down this freaking rabbit hole. NBC executives, I'm pretty sure, knew that they released that they're gonna have to deal. Dateline was gonna have to deal with, you know, litigation and all that stuff. And then they had another thing called Reckoning where they. A documentary on Dateline with all the Epstein survivors that that was going to lead to all this craziness. Now, Savannah Guthrie gave Virginia Giuffre a national platform and a voice to make these allegations that reached the highest levels of Power. And if you guys remember who was the main person that they were talking about, do you guys remember Prince Andrew? That was the number one. And they were going after him. And imagine all the stuff that came after him. But another thing, separately, Savannah Guthrie. Guthrie's husband, Michael Feldman, worked in the Clinton White House for eight years. He served as the deputy assistant to President Bill Clinton as a senior comms and policy aid guy. His responsibilities were internal operations, message coordination. Tom. Political strategy. And then after leaving her husband, co founded the Glover Park Group. It's a Democratic aligned public relations and consulting firm. Pat, you know what they basically do? They go around, Tom. And if there's stuff about you that they need to fix, they clean up your image and all that type of stuff. So I think right now what we could be witnessing is not just an adoption abduction, it's psychological warfare being used. Again, my speculation, but what if this is a form of institutional retaliation against someone who helped those figures? It's not. It's not random that she's in the files. It's not random that she interviewed Virginia. It's not random that she interviewed all these people. And you know what? I did a little digging. Do you guys remember who was another person towards the end of his life that was openly criticizing our government with handling of the Epstein files? You guys remember? What do you guys remember Charlie KIRK ON. On July 14, remember, Trump came out and said, if anybody, if you guys are doing this, you don't support me, I don't. I'm not with you. You remember that? That was July 14th. He told everybody to back off. That same day, Charlie Kirk said, I'm done talking about Epstein. And then guess what? On July 15, the very next day, he flipped and he demanded that the files were going to be released. And covering Epstein for nearly an hour on his show. An hour. And then less than two months later, I think it was 50 some days, Pat, he was dead. And this, I mean, this is him. This is the clip.
B
What are you saying? What are you saying?
D
I don't.
C
I was just gonna ask. What's your point?
D
Look at, look at the connections.
B
The.
D
The girl that gave the platform to survivors, that exposed Prince Andrew, that blew the lid off. Guys, we never. Adam, we never even heard of survivors, bro. I didn't. We didn't know any of them existed until she gave them the platform. Okay? She gave them the platform. Maybe they wanted her husband to help the. Because, by the way, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton are supposed to go and speak in front of Congress, what? This month, Tom this, look, it's. It's kind of. It's.
C
None of you ever say, do it.
D
Well, I think it's connected. I think it's kind of connected. Why?
C
What do you think is the connection?
D
Because she's.
C
I'm. I'm genuinely giving you the benefit of the doubt. What are you saying exactly? I'm saying she, like in a sentence.
D
My. My speculation is they're. They're sending a message. You're giving them the platform. You gave these girls a voice. You're doing this. Maybe they asked her husband who runs this firm. He's a partner at Glover Park Group, which helps Democrats. Adam with their image and stuff. Maybe they asked him to help clean up and help with this thing, and he was like, nah, I'm not gonna do it. This happens. There's no way. How is she randomly in the. Epstein.
B
Let me. Let me send you a clip.
C
It all makes sense.
B
Let me do this. Let me send you a clip from the. From the. The lady. Savannah and Trump, their history. I think this is the part that you have to hear where the, The. The.
A
The.
B
The crisis happened on a day that's very, very weird. There's cops lined outside of their house the entire time trying to find out what the hell is going on. This is weird. Some people are even saying, could it be an inside job? So a lot of different angles people are taken, right? That maybe their own family did this for different reason. I'm not saying that's the truth. All I'm saying is. But this is the history of Savannah Guthrie with President Trump. Go ahead, Rob.
D
Run by the state.
B
I'll tell you what I do know about. I know about antifa, and I know about the radical left, and I know how violent they are and how vicious they are. And I know how they are burning.
D
Democrats not run by the Republican senator. Ben Sasse said, quote, qanon is nuts. And real leaders call conspiracy theories. Theories.
B
Conspiracy theories.
D
Why not just say it's crazy and not true?
B
He may be right. I just don't know about QAnon. You do know. I don't know.
A
No, I don't know.
B
I don't know. Let me ask you another thing. Let's waste a whole show. You start off with white supremacy.
A
I denounce it.
B
You start off with something else.
C
Let's go.
B
Keep asking me these questions.
D
I do have one more.
B
Let me just tell you what I do hear about it is they are very strongly against pedophilia.
D
And I agree with that. I mean, I do agree with that and I agree.
B
There's not a satanic pedophile.
D
I have no idea.
B
I know.
D
You don't know that. No, I don't know.
B
Neither do you know that.
D
Okay.
B
Just this week, neither do you. He's given the right answer. Why aren't you asking me about the radical? Why aren't you asking Joe Biden questions about. Why doesn't he condemn antifa? Why does he say it doesn't exist?
A
Because you're Antifa.
B
Back in 2024, during the election. Oh, I'm sorry. Let it keep going. She was attacking him left and right. I mean, talking to. I think there's more president. Yeah, you can pause it right here because there's a lot of clips between the 200 and how the stuff that they said didn't exist came out to be true in many different areas. Then this is the one that's very creepy, folks. I'm sure you've seen this. The letter she's reading is verbatim from what the lady in the movie Silence of the Lamp set when they were talking about kidnappers. Tell me this isn't creepy. Watch this. She is full of kindness. Catherine is very gentle and kind. Talk to her. Talk to her and you'll see.
A
What.
B
Wait.
D
I mean, this is.
B
This is a little weird.
D
And it went on. There's actually a longer clip of it. And so. So my point is, think about this. What are the odds, Adam. What are the odds that Savannah Guthrie, she's in the Epstein files, where it looks like Jeffrey Epstein is talking to somebody powerful, saying, she's gonna go here. She's gonna talk about this, she's gonna talk about that. Then her husband worked for Clinton for eight years, okay? Leaves, goes to another company, partners up with a company that helps Democrats with their image and all that stuff. And then now the Clintons are testifying about the Epstein stuff this month. How do you not see a connection of somehow, somewhere, and then she's over here yelling at Trump? What you talking about? There's demons and whatever. It's a pedophile, satanic group. Yeah, there is. There is. What other type of human being sleeps with underage girls, allegedly buries them or puts them in sulfuric acid, kills them? They have trapdoors and they throw them to the freaking sharks. It's like, when are we going to stop pretending that evil is real, that evil is real and it's happening in front of our faces? I think that once we stop playing that game, then nothing is off the table because there's no, you can't not see the connection. She was the biggest. She put the victim of Prince Andrew. A prince and put her on the freak and sat there. You don't think NBC was like, oh, my God, this is. We're gonna get litigation. We're gonna. But she's like, we have to do it. You don't think this is a retribution? You don't think. You don't think these people pay you back? You know, she's lucky. She's not hanging from a tree in her house with a shotgun shot to her chest. And there's no shotgun found like Mark Middleton. She's lucky. She's lucky. And I pray that they find her mom. But this is all connected, bro. That's me. I don't think it's a family.
B
I don't know if. Tom, do you have any thoughts on this?
A
Yes. So when there is a public. When you go public with a kidnapping, these statements are not written by you in emotion and stress. These states are written by professionals that work with the law enforcement that are writing the message back to. To you. Because they are trying to do one thing. They're trying to get your person back, but they're also trying to set hooks or identify where they can catch the captors. Preserve life is number one. Because the law enforcement will look at you and say, look, if you want to pay the ransom, you're risking on losing this money, and all you're going to get back is, you know, a body at some point, if then. And so this I believe, and I'm 90% on this, this was written by somebody in law enforcement. Now, did that person in law enforcement write the same thing from Silence of the Lambs? If they did, that's pretty lazy. But I'll also tell you this. These movies, I mean, I lived in la. Pat lived in la. I knew people that used to do law enforcement research for the show Law and Order, Pat. Do you know how much they spent on research? They had consultants because they said, hey, we want to show the courtroom scene. We want to show this. But it's gotta be accurate. It's gotta be true. We want the procedure to be right. We want it to look authentic. And so Silence of the Lambs, if they, you know, took the time and done research to portray this correctly, and then the person that's working with Savannah Guthrie in law enforcement copied it, number one, I think that's lazy, but it does line up with exactly what law enforcement would want you to do. So I. I think this was not surprising to me. There is One fact everyone, including law enforcement seems to agree. An elderly woman was abducted. There's blood at the scene. And there. From there. Those are the facts. Facts. Now everything else. Are these ransom notes real? Is this a copycat? We don't know that.
D
And 6 billion. $6 billion of Bitcoin is the ransom.
A
Because remember, you know, in most of these. I hate to cast a bad light on this, Pat, but how many of these have you seen that? They think it's this. They think it's that. It turns out to be. It's a family member. Angry family members or angry friends that have broken something is usually the first path on here. It goes back to Scott Peterson. It goes back to.
D
Family's always first.
A
Yeah, not always, but there's a really high percent that it was inside the circle of family and friends and community, and someone's upset, so she's missing, there's blood, and I don't know. And I can't make the call on whether the ransom notes are accurate or a copycat. What if. But there's some weird things going on that just shows you the law enforcement just looking everywhere. They pulled stuff out of a mailbox. They were looking in a septic tank. It shows that what law enforcement is doing with that is saying, what if it was a friend, family member, or a quick kill and we're just looking for a body.
D
Yeah, yeah, that's why I said speculation, Tom, but it is kind of weird that I'm not being Kevin Bacon, Six degrees. It's just obvious. She was the one. She was the one. And now the Clintons are about to testify. I don't know. Well, I mean, I pray for her. I hope she's okay.
A
I respect what you're saying, but there's a lot of dots there, and they need to be honest people. And there's a. There's a lot of journalists that are in this same realm. I mean, if this. If this theme is there, then you would have a high profile conservative journalist like a Sean Hannity, somebody coming after him. I'm not saying. I'm not suggesting, but I'm saying if.
B
I got you, Tom, I get it. I understand what you're saying, Tom. Go for it, Adam. Go for it.
C
Okay, well, let me just kind of cut through the noise that as much as I love you, Vinnie, there was a lot of noise there, but I do appreciate you literally going down the rabbit hole like you said you would. So I have not followed this at all. So I'll just be simple. Number one, this is not Some sort of business transaction. This is an old woman who's being held hostage. On its face. That's what's going on. There may be extracurricular things going on. There's time to decide that maybe, number two, the whole goal, why they're using the silence of a lamb situation is because there's a playbook here. Number one, you need to humanize the person that's being held captive. She's kind, she's sweet. She's a mother. She's a grandmother. Please return my mother back to me is the same thing that anyone would say if their mother or grandmother was being held hostage. Number three, the basic rule is you don't negotiate with terrorists. These people are terrorists, Most likely domestic terrorists, if you want to call them that. And I think it's going to end up very ugly for these people because the last thing that these people want is to be just living with an old lady for the next 6, 12, 18 months. So they're doing this for the money. And let's see what the authorities. I agree with Tom here. The authorities are running this, not the Guthrie family.
B
Yeah, yeah, we'll see. We will see. There's a lot of weird things to it. And, you know, anytime you're doing things, you. You. Your job is to be able to consider everybody. Typically, they're going to look at. Could it be an inside thing? Could it be somebody that's on the inside that's doing this? But because it's 84, and it's not like they're living in a house that's that outlandish that they're going to come in. There was the patterns of tipping. It's very weird. So we'll see. We'll see what's happening, and we'll come back and revisit it. And when we get newer stories that's coming up with this year, Let me get to the next story here, because we got a lot of them. Mamdani is out there quoting the Quran to support sanctuary city. Quran in the Bible to support sanctuary city. So if we go to this rabbi, I do think you have a clip on this. Go for it. Play it.
D
The story of the hijra reminds us that prophet Muhammad was a stranger, too, who fled Mecca and was welcomed in medina. Surah Nahl 1642 tells us, as for those who immigrated in the cause of Allah after being persecuted, we will surely bless them with a good home in this world. Or as the prophet Muhammad said, Islam began as something strange and will go back to being strange. So Glad tidings to the strangers, Vinny. Saying Americans should look to Islam and Prophet Muhammad, whatever the heck he's saying, to support mass migration. He left that part out about non Muslims are not allowed in the Muslim holy land of Mecca, which is Muhammad's birthplace. Okay? Non Muslims are arrested and deported immediately. So he's full of it. And the fact that he's speaking Arabic in America on a stage like that drives me bananas. But just a little report card, if you guys haven't been following about Mr. Mamdani, the freaking socialist communist. He's made it and remained it as a sanctuary city. Buses and subways fares are up, so services are slower. Right now they're saying estimated 19 homeless people have frozen to death during last week's storm because a policy during winter storm, it allowed people to refuse shelter and freezing conditions. Okay, that's him. Since then there's been almost, almost 20 homicides. Rapes are up 11%. And the city is facing a 12.6 billion dollar fiscal cliff. So for anybody that was wondering what socialism looks like, There you go, New Yorkers. And then also, did you guys see the videos, Pat, of all the garbage, Robbie, on the Upper east side buried in trash eight feet high. Okay. And the same area around Gracie Mansion where he lives was all clean. Everything was done in residents. People were actually going to his house and they were protesting in front of his freaking house. Look at how disgusting. I mean, in New York it looks average, but look at, look, just look at it. Look at New York. And everybody's complaining. Do you see this? Look, there's nothing.
B
Look.
D
This is the Great Wall of New York City. Yeah.
C
This is now a.
B
A national landmark, actually.
D
You can't even see that.
B
There is a road on the opposite side of this.
C
I'm about 6ft tall. Look at this.
A
There you go.
C
This is my height at the very least.
B
But it's trash in New York, the.
D
Reception trash in New York on the street. So that's everywhere. And that's Upper east side. You can stop it, Robbie.
B
Thank you.
D
And his. And the mansion in front of where he's at the ice, everything was clean, everything was nice.
A
And.
D
And this is what you get. This is what all of you guys that were out there give me free stuff and everything. That's what you're getting. And he's talking about Muhammad and speaking in a different language in the United States. Good for you.
A
So he's trying to make a case here for immigration. And he was quoting Buddhism, he quoted the Torah, he mentioned Christianity and He was using verses in Exodus, talking about the stranger. He's trying to took all that together and weave it together to make a case for immigration. Strangers in a new land, treat them well and all that. And at the same time, what we didn't see here is he talked about how Islam is all about immigration and how he wants more Islam immigration into New York. That's the message. That's what's going on here. So when he says who he is, believe him, that's what we see now. On the other side of it, he is sitting there incapable of getting basic things done. He's had an impasse on the budget. We've already done the math and said that the 8 million short for the 8 million that Eric Adams left to him. And Eric Adams looked Pat Nye in the eye in Washington, D.C. two weeks ago and said, I left him 8 billion in surplus. Where's that? Along with the 12 billion shortfall, that's $20 million. So he's looking for money to do it. You're missing shifts on trash pickup and things like this. That is not just trash day. You could go and, and take film on any street in America. Oh, look at all the trash and all the barrels out here. They haven't been picked up. Wait a minute. What if that's trash day and the trucks are going to come by and pick everything up? That there in New York, that is a week or more of a lack of services for the city. And, Pat, when you see something like that, their budget's wrong. Guys aren't being given shifts. Overtime shifts aren't there. It's because they're turning down the number of shifts. You know, here in, here in South Florida, you'll notice that every now and then we'll have Saturday trash pickup. And you know when that is, Pat? You'll have a Saturday pickup. When you have a national holiday like a National Memorial Day, a national Labor Day, MLK and President's Day that are all together, something like that. Guess what? Then all of a sudden you have a Saturday trash pickup. Because they look around and they say, well, guess what? There's going to be a day off for everybody here. But you know what? These guys are gonna get an overtime shift for a Saturday because we just can't miss a day and have 1/6 of the city miss their trash pickup. This guy's in trouble and he's pro immigration, and that's what he's talking about. You don't have to read between the lines. You can listen to what he say and Believe what he's telling you. He is already failing as a leader.
B
He's. Yep. Adam.
C
Yeah, Rob, if you don't mind, real quick, can you just play 10 seconds of his words? So I just. I really want to remember what he said.
D
The story of the Hijra reminds us that Prophet Muhammad was a stranger too, who fled Mecca and was welcomed in medina. Surah Nahl 1642 tells us, as for those who immigrated in the cause of Allah after being persecuted, we will surely bless them with a good home in this world. Or as the Prophet Muhammad said.
C
Got it.
D
Islam began as something strange and will go back to being strange.
C
Thank you.
D
So glad.
C
Well, I'll say this. There's certainly something strange going on in New York City and it's called Islamism has taken over. So in my opinion, this is how I would rank who Mamdani is. He's an Islamist first, Communist second, globalist third, New Yorker fourth, and America last. So this is exactly what you voted for, Pat, as you famously said, elections have consequences. These are the consequences also. Words have power. Listen, if you want to say Prophet Muhammad, that's fine. Do you want to say Gaza, that's fine. You're going to stand there on the bully pulpit in New York City and say Prophet Muhammad and go full Islam, like they said in tropics under don't go full. You know what that word is? He's just revealing exactly who he is. I have no problem with the fact that he's Muslim. I have a problem with the fact that he's a Muslim extremist. It's like the people. You want to say Gaza, that's fine. Don't call it Giza. Gaza, Gaza. So he's revealing who he is and New Yorkers are going to pay the price. Last point. I was in an amazing super bowl party last night in a gorgeous house in Miami filled with New Yorkers. Filled with New Yorkers. So for those that don't think that New Yorkers are fleeing to sunny South Florida, think again. And these are rich, rich, rich people who have had enough of this and they've been thinking about it for years and they're about to make that move.
B
Data's not going to lie. When we look at the numbers of what happens and people leave, Folks, I'm telling you, if you want that move to New York City. You should move to New York City right now. If you want to be in a place where the streets are protected, six feet of trash. If you want a city with high taxes, with a lot of Good. Entitlement programs. If you want a city that's, you know, praying to Islam and from stage to. I mean, if that's what you want, I would recommend people to move to New York who support those things. You should be doing that. I think it's a great city right now to move to. If you like entitlement programs. Low security, you know, a. A cop gets stabbed by a criminal and instead of going and visiting the cop in the hospital, Mandani goes and visits the criminal who stabbed the cop.
C
Of course.
B
You guys hear the story?
C
No, but nobody doubts you.
B
But did you hear the story?
D
I saw the body cam footages of what the person did. There's a video of it.
B
You really haven't heard that?
D
Insane.
B
If you, if you want to.
C
I want to see it. Yeah.
D
Oh, the video is the person running after the cop with a knife.
C
Is anybody shocked? We're all disappointed, but nobody's shocked.
B
Yeah, there it is. New York City mom. Donnie urges dropping attempted murder charges for a man armed with a knife going.
D
After a copy a cop.
B
So a body camera footage released by the New York Police Department shows two officers responding to a 911 call made in Queens home on January 26th. The call was made by family members sharing that the 22 year old Jabiz Chakraborty was experiencing a mental health emergency. On 911 call, a family member claimed that he had thrown a glass at the wall and they were seeking for him to be transported to a facility. Officers were invited into the home by a woman when Chakraborty appeared behind her holding a large kitchen knife. The woman struck her arm in front of him and the officers raid their, raise their guns, calling on Chakraborty. The officers closed the front door behind them, creating a barrier between them and a 22 year old man. However, the footage allegedly shows Chakraborki continuing to lunge at the officers pushed through the door, prompting the officer to shoot Chakraborki four times. He was transported to the hospital, is currently intensive care, listed in stable yet critical condition. Mamdani just went to visit Chakraborki in the hospital today hearing a body cam of him charging NYPD with a knife, which resulted in an officer discharging his weapon to protect himself.
D
Because it's not, it's not graphic. It's not crazy graphic because he goes behind the door. But yeah, Robbie, go a little bit further, Robbie. Because he gets in the house, they go, keep going. Okay, ready for this right here, Rob. That's perfect. Look. He tries to stop, Put the knife down. Look, put the knife down. Coming out to the cop, closes the door. Watch. Look. Put the knife down. Put the knife down. Put the knife down. Okay.
C
Did he shoot him?
D
So, yeah, he shoots him, but he.
C
Doesn'T kill where he shoot him.
D
He shoots him in the body. Put the knife down.
C
But he didn't kill him.
D
No, he didn't kill.
C
The knife.
D
Drop the knife.
B
Shots fire. Shots fire.
D
Could I say something from a law enforcement?
C
Why did Mandani go visit Adam?
D
Because they have to be. He's anti cop and he's pro criminal. And for anybody that served in the military or done law enforcement, that's exactly what the cops should have done. He should have. He could have shot him earlier. He even closed the door to put a barrier.
A
This is what the liberals want. The liberals want body cam footage while you cop.
D
Oh, 100%. I know you are.
A
You have it now. You have your body cam footage. Liberals, you have what you want. And then your guy goes to visit him.
B
By the way, this should be a.
C
Bigger story, but did Mamdani make a statement while he went Him.
B
He went.
D
He went to go visit.
C
Let's go with facts now. Why did he go visit the victim?
D
Did he make a statement? No. He just hates cops, Adam, and he's trying to get rid of the attempted murder. You're trying to kill the cop.
C
You're the mayor of New York City. You have the nypd. You can't just come out and say you hate cops, even if you feel like that.
D
Well, here's my question.
C
I want to know, did he make a statement?
D
Why would he visit the guy that. That came at the cop with a knife?
C
That's who was threatening the cop. I'm asking you, Rob, is there any more information that we.
B
There is no report that he visited the cop at all. There's plenty of reports that he visit at the guy at the hospital saying, this guy needs mental health.
C
Does he know the kid?
D
No.
C
Why is he visiting the kid?
B
Just to make a statement that this guy needs. Needs our help because he's got mental health issues.
C
That's the statement you want to say?
B
Right there on the bottom. A person experiencing mental health episode does not always have to be served first or exclusively by a police officer. It is important for us to have all the options available. In the viewing of this footage, it is clear to me that Jabez needs. Needs is mental health treatment, not criminal persecution. Oh, my God. From a district attorney. And we are talking about a family that is enduring the kind of Pain that no family should. And an individual that has lived with schizophrenia for many years, like, as if.
D
The cop knows the history report of this. No, no.
A
Okay. Mental health treatment. You send a counselor in there to get stabbed.
D
That's what they want.
C
Exactly.
D
That's what.
C
Mom.
B
Donnie, what I'm saying is for folks that are watching this who hate cops, move to New York city.
D
Yeah.
B
So I'm trying to tell you, I'm trying to promote business to move people to move to New York city. If you want entitlement programs, this the best time to move to New York city. If you want this kind of a mayor who visits the mental health individual, not the cop, move to New York city. It's a great climate. And by the way, billionaires who are, you know, there and people that are moneymakers. 123 or so billionaires that live in New York city. Good luck keeping those guys. They're all moving out. They're going to different places, doubling down on security. So it's a very, very unique thing that's going. I want to move on to the next story here. So that's. That's that story that we have. All right, let's go to the next story. Yes, absolutely. For you, it's. It's an understatement when we say unbelievable. Anyways, while this is taking place, couple other things. Cowshi. Okay, Prediction. Kalshi seeks u. S. Approval to offer margin trades. And this is, this is actually massive when they're going to a place like this because this, this changes the game if you play with margin, but they're opening it up. So, Tom, I'm going to come to you first. FYI, Kelsey's positions with super bowl, I believe hit a half a billion dollars of positions placed. Half a billion. Half a billion dollars of positions placed with Kelsey just for super bowl. Rob, can you pull that up? Kalshee is climbing in a massive way. I think humberto sent you that link right there. Rob, zoom in. Watch this. Here's kalshi for you. Ken, what it looked like. Look at the position. Half a billion dollars placed with kalshi. Tom, tell us about what's going on here with kalshi and margins.
A
Well, what's interesting is margin is the ability to use debt. Debt and it's also ability to use assets. So, Vinnie, let's say that you buy 10 shares of Nvidia with cash and they're in your schwab account or they're in your robinhood account or something like that. And then they say to you well, that was your cash and you bought 10 shares. Would you like to buy 5 more? How do I buy 5 more? We'll let you use margin. We'll let you use 50% of the value you did as collateral here to buy five more shares. You're like, gee, that would be great. And because that way, if it goes down, you know, 25% or something, that's okay. You could sell everything and still, and still pay us. Oh, okay. Well, maybe, maybe I want to do that. And so that's, that's how you use margin to do it. And what they're offering now, not offering, they're in there talking to, remember, Kalshi is regulated. That was the one. They are regulated by the CFTC Commodity Futures Trading Commission. And now they're looking at it and saying, look, you're allowing people to trade on margin on meme stocks on, you know, that people follow the, say, Wall street bets on Reddit and then you go over to a Robinhood account and you make, you know, calls and puts and trade on margin that way. And what Kalsi is looking at is saying, hey, you know, there's the cftc. This is, remember, CFTC giving precision, saying, hey, we don't see much difference between trading and gambling. And what we're looking at is it's risk. So why wouldn't Kalshi be able to take advantage of the risk laws and allow people to use margin to make their opinions known and to use some of their capital? And so it's leveling the playing field and it's treating all of the players equally. And remember, they're regulated by cftc, so they're not out there trying to, you know, the fintech company, remember the fintech companies that said, I'm going to be a credit card and they had no assets in the back and bad things happen. No, Koshi's regulated. And Kalshee says, well, if you're going to rule on this and then let's put it up and get regulatory approval and then let people use margin to, you know, put out and put some dollars down on an opinion or prediction, whether it's who's going to run the Fed or who's going to win the big game.
B
Nice. That's a big deal. That's exciting that that's taking place. I think it's a whole new market that they're getting into, which is going to be great. Let me get to the next story here. Next story I want to get to is in regards to Team USA freestyle skier Sparks, Olympic Outrage over. Over remarks about representing US Anti American rhetoric. Rob, is this the clip from my Twitter account or.
D
No?
B
No, I can go to your Twitter. Go to that one. Because I want to show the. The. The complete difference between how one reacts to it versus another one right there. So here's what's his name, Hunter, talking about how he feels representing America. Go ahead, Rob.
A
Brings up mixed emotions to represent the US Right now.
D
I think it's a little hard.
A
There's obviously a lot going on that.
D
I'm not the biggest fan of, and.
A
I think a lot of people aren't. If it aligns with my moral values.
D
I feel like I'm representing it. Just because I'm wearing the flag doesn't.
A
Mean I represent everything that's going on.
D
In the U.S. so, yeah, I just.
A
Kind of want to do it for my friends and my family and the people that support me getting here.
D
Feel to represent your country like this.
B
It feels amazing.
C
That's.
D
This is what. Well, this is what America. Look at that.
C
Love it.
D
And I'm so happy I get to represent usa.
B
It brings up makes. Isn't that awesome what the two different looks like? Of course, one, you're. You're not wanting to represent your country. And then you have Mensah, Tamara Mensah, who is phenomenal on the way she celebrated, by the way, when she was celebrating something. She's a conservative. Okay. You know who the president was when she was celebrating like that? Cool. Biden was the president.
D
Oh, really?
B
Because they changed the dates for Covid. Don't forget when they change the dates for Olympics. So, Adam, your thoughts on this?
C
What's his kid's name?
B
Hess. Hunter Hess.
C
Hunter has. Okay, well, here's how I feel. Hunter, you could stay in Italy if you don't like America. You know, this is a Ricky Gervais type moment. When he gets up on stage, he goes for you. Actors who get up on stage don't make a political statement. Shut your mouth. Thank your agent. Thank you, God. Keep it moving. And we just saw what what's her face Billie Eilish did at the Grammys. Buddy Hunter Hess, who's nobody's heard before in their life. You show up on the biggest stage of the Olympics and you all you should be doing is I love America. I'm proud to be representing my country. That's it, homeboy. So I would boycott this kid from coming back to America or certainly from any ads. Any sponsors obviously can come back to America.
B
What do you say to the people, too? Hey, Adam. What happened to freedom speech?
C
Oh, you could say. What. Here's what I'll say about freedom of speech. We have freedom of speech, but you do not have freedom of consequences. You could say whatever you want. You could come back to the country. But we have every right to boo you when we see you. We have every right to not buy any product that you endorse. Hunter Hess. And by the way, what he said wasn't even that bad. The point is this. Shut your mouth. You have a microphone. You're representing the United States of America, not the House of Hess.
B
Shut it up, Vinnie.
D
There's another one, too. His name was Chris Lillis, I believe. Who was sitting next to him and he's talking about. Who was it, Robbie?
A
I have that. Chris Willis.
B
Yeah.
D
Yeah. Well, Rob, because I. I can't. I don't even want to show him. If you have Amber Glenn, she's the LGBTQ figure skater. She jumped in and she attacked the country and the President.
C
Otherwise just known as a figure skater.
D
Yeah. She basically said, Pat, that Trump is attacking the. The queer community. And this is her right here. Listen to what she's saying.
B
It's been a hard time for the.
D
Community overall under this administration.
B
It isn't the first time that we've.
D
Had to come together as a community.
B
And try and fight for our human rights. And now especially, it's not just affecting the queer community, but many other communities.
D
And I think that we are able to support each other in a way that we didn't have to before. And because of that, it's made us a lot stronger.
B
I hope I can use my platform.
D
And my voice throughout these games to try and encourage people to stay strong in these hard times. Rob, can you please stop? She's a perfect example of ignorance fueled by propaganda by the simple minded left. What is she talking about? What is, Tom, what is Trump doing wrong with the LGBTQ community? You made a great statement, Adam. A little bit earlier, he was the first president to appoint an openly gay official to the cabinet role. And guess who the treasury of the United States is? Scott Besson. Who's the freaking rock star? Like I this. I'm despised. These people drive me crazy. Ok, there's no other country on earth. Try to name one that's more accepting to gays and lesbians and LGBTQ community. Go ahead. The same Olympics she's at has countries that you can't be openly gay. They'll throw your ass off of buildings and put your ass in jail. What is she talking about? That's that's real discrimination. So it just drives me crazy. And to the point of. Again, Adam, I gotta agree with you. You're representing the United States in another country. It drives me crazy. Like that you hate us so much that you're gonna go there, embarrass us, and embarrass the freaking flag. Just like Gavin Newsom when he goes to Davos and he craps all over us. I'm sick and tired of that. That's why I love that video Pat of Tamira Mencha Stott. That was awesome. And you know what I realized? You know what you guys don't ever see? I've never seen, Adam, reporters ask any athletes from other countries about their politics.
C
You ever notice that?
D
You ever notice that, Tommy? You never see a reporter asking an athlete from England, hey, how do you feel about Keir Starmer letting all the government, letting all these girls getting raped by Pakistani rape gangs? Well, have you ever heard that?
C
Or.
D
Or a Spanish athletes. How do you guys feel about 500 Africans just brought in willy nilly for votes?
A
100,000.
D
500,000. How do you feel about that? It just. It boggles my mind. That's always us. This place gave you everything. All the money, paid for all your sponsorship. You're a rock star because of the United States of America. I am sick and tired. Guys like in my soul for people crapping on this country. Enough already. Move to Canada. But guess what? They won't let you in because they have a strong ass border. It infuriates me. This is the best. Name another place better than us. Go ahead. Go ahead and try it. You can't even. It can't even come off your lips. Gays are treated okay. All right? The only thing we pissed off about is the lgbtq. We don't. I'm sorry, is the L. We don't want men with penises and girls.
C
The T. That's the T, buddy.
D
The T's. I'm sorry, whatever.
C
Spelling is your second language. I get it. Letters L is for less.
D
Nobody cares if you're gay. Just keep the men out of the girls locker rooms and out of the sports. It's that simple.
A
These athletes are spokespeople for their own ignorance.
B
Here's what's crazy. She is from Plano. They homeschooled her parents. Homeschooled. Her mother was a fitness instructor or something like that. And father was a cop. Okay? And at 20 years old, she came out saying she's bisexual. Pansexual. I don't know what pansexual Is pansexual bisexual?
C
She's into Peter Pan, that kind of stuff.
B
Yeah. So I honestly, I don't know what pansexual is.
A
Me neither.
B
But at 20 years old. Okay. And she was homeschooled. She was homeschooled in Plano. Plano's. We lived in Plano for five years. You and I know Plano. So, Tom, go for it.
A
So these people are spokes. I'm gonna say it again. They're spokespeople, spokesmen, spokeswomen for their own ignorance. They are adopting the outrage. It's like they get up in the morning and they go to Instagram and saying, what am I supposed to be outraged about? Today I see a huge difference between these people with their weak. And these are weak arguments. These arguments wouldn't stand up to scrutiny if you had real journalists challenging what they're saying, pushing on what they're saying, and talking about the freedoms and everything they enjoy in the United States of America. These are nitwits, these people. They come. I. I compare them. You want to compare them to. I compare them to Tommy Smith. Tommy Smith, during the civil rights situation in 1968, stood on a podium and put on a black glove symbolizing black power, and didn't wear shoes, which he said was symbolizing black poverty, and raised his fist in the air and made a political statement at the Olympics. And he got in trouble for it. But he was not adopting a position. He was an African American that came from very, very little and personally had identified these things. Now, do we agree with him with what he did and how he said it? No, but he wasn't adopting anything. He was coming from the community versus these people wake up in the morning and decide there's something to be heard about. And now they're speaking in outrage. I want a journalist to say, excuse me, where have you been hurt? Where have you been impacted by the riots or ice or things like this? Or are you just being like the celebr who make money and then select a.
B
A phenomenal point?
C
Tommy Smith was the guy that did this.
A
Yeah, that's Tommy Smith.
C
I'm good with that.
A
And Tommy Smith was sent home and suspended from the team yet. And I'm not defending him, but my point is he had identity and he had a point coming from his own experience and life. These pinheads are just.
C
I just want to add one thing. I agree with Tom on this one. Listen, you want to make a statement when you return back to America, Say whatever you want. You're an American citizen. Say good, bad, or ugly what you feel when you're on the global stage, you do not air America's dirty laundry to the rest of the world. Where's the Winter Olympics? In Italy somewhere. Okay. In Milan. Thank you. Honored to represent my country. Keep it moving. I'm actually, come to think of it, not that mad at these kids. Who are the captains, who are the coaches? Who is Team USA saying when you win, you get your ass on there. You thank America, you thank your team, you thank your country, and you can do whatever you want. When you get home on the global stage, you do not air our dirty laundry to the rest of the world. What's it saying? If you want to criticize me, we do it in private, but in public, you commend me. They did. They never were given that speech. Clearly. And that's why I'm upset.
D
Yeah, no, great point. Can you imagine, Pat, your kids going to somebody's else's house and airing out everything about your house there and then coming back home? No.
B
What do you.
D
What are you nuts? Keep it, like, keep it respectful. What the hell are you going on? And the fact that she's gonna sit there and talk about her community is so hurt and the. The struggle. How many. First of all, Pride Month. You get an entire month. Veterans Day. We get one day. And I don't even get a discount anywhere. Foot Locker gives us a 10 discount. That's it.
C
We gotta go get some shoes.
D
Yeah, no, for sure. And then how many days, Pat, you. You did this about a year ago. How many days does the LGBTQ.
B
145.
D
145 days representing your people. So you made a great point. It's just ignorance. And she just wakes up in the morning, she's like, what am I gonna go do? And, you know, her friends are like, go. You go, girl. Go, go, go. And say how bad that you have it.
C
You know what's.
A
So they're wind up robots that look daily to find out what am I supposed to be outraged about today?
D
Yeah, exactly.
C
You know what's so crazy?
A
Tools.
D
Tools.
C
Even if you're a major, major, major winner and you accomplish all these amazing things, you can still somehow have a victim mentality. It's crazy.
B
Yeah.
C
Look at all the opportunities that you've. That you've accomplished, guys. Great things you've done.
B
Brainwashing works for good and bad. Let me tell you. Brainwashing works for good and bad. This last week, we had our annual PHP recognition ceremony. Shout out to hearts. They they incredible job they're doing. Chris and Messina Hart, phenomenal job today. Swazos, nice, phenomenal job. Okafor is coming up. Orianna's. These guys are really guitar doing the first million point paid. Jose, Marlene, great stuff that I'm seeing what's going on with some of the guys here. But you know what I explained, okay, so we're going to do this to. To kind of show. So you got in life, you got. Everybody's a different size magnet. When you're small, you're a small magnet. But a small magnet is big compared to a smaller magnet. So if I have a guy here who sells wheat, does cocaine, does X, but sells Special K, does all this stuff, and I got a guy here who is living a right life, going to school, wants to be somebody, going to church, doesn't use drugs, doesn't use alcohol. This guy's a better salesperson than this person. He's a bigger magnet. He's gonna draw me this way, right? And I'm gonna be like, oh, my God. Yeah, you're right. What's the big deal? You're only going to be young once. Look at Elvis, did it all these other. Everybody does it, bro. Like, he's right. Enjoy your life once. What do you think your parents did when you were younger? You think your parents were like this? Become a Christian later on when you're in your 30s, 40s, 50s, but live life now. You're right. Let's go live life now. And this guy doesn't know how to sell. He's just like, no, I don't want to do that. So he doesn't know how to recruit you to this way of living. You're going to be turned on by this. So these kids are going places and they don't have a clue what's going on. If you don't have a solid foundation developed internally, emotionally, mentally by parents, by the right examples, and you're around that for too long, boom. A bigger magnet can attract a smaller magnet to their way of thinking. And you lose 5, 10, 15 years of your life. And then you look back and saying, what the hell did I just do the last 15 years? That's kind of what's happening with some of these guys. They don't even know what they're doing. Some of these guys don't even know what they're doing. When you heard about that one, the transitioner had to pay 2 million, got paid $2 million. You think when that person was a kid, they knew what it meant to the Trans. To transition. No, they lost their life. It's permanent. Those puberty blockers destroy you. It's permanent damage that's done to these people. So, anyways, I have no sympathy for that mindset. But if you're older and you choose to do that and it's your choice, guess what? That person made the decision as an adult. Let me go to a couple other stories and then we'll wrap up Iran. So a couple things that's going on with Iran right now. Okay. A couple things that's going on with Iran right now. Trump at one point said they had very good talks with Iran. As Islamic Republic ratchets up rhetoric. Okay, rhetoric on what's going on there. And then, then comes out and Trump gives a warning. Rob, go in and play the first clip. Very, very good talks today having to do with Russia, Ukraine. Something could be happening. We likewise had very good talks on Iran. Iran looks like it wants to make a deal very badly. We have to see what that deal is. But I think Iran looks like they want to make a deal very badly, as they should. Last time they decided maybe not to do it, but I think they probably feel differently. We'll see what the deal is. It'd be different than last time. And we have a big armada. We have a big fleet heading in that direction. We'll be there pretty soon, so we'll see how that works out. Rob, do you have the other clip, warnings of consequences or is it in the same clip?
A
That's the same clip.
B
Okay, keep going. Get in position. We have plenty of time. If you remember Venezuela, we waited around for a while and we're in no rush. We have, you know, very good talks going with Iran. We have very good talks going with Russia and Ukraine. We're doing a lot of good talking. And I think we had the results today were with Iran. It was a meeting. We're going to meet again early next week. And they want to make a deal, as they should want to make a deal. They know the consequences. If they don't, they don't make a deal. The consequences are very stable. So, by the way, they had a very. So then an Iranian is trying to send a message out to the president to say, don't negotiate with these guys. You know what this guy does to make a point to the president for not making a deal with the irgc. What is the ultimate thing you can do for protesting, which is burned himself alive. This guy, Iranian, takes his own life.
D
What?
B
After urging US President to not make a deal with the regime Watch this. Vinny, go. He's not, by the way, you're not going to see it live on the video, but go ahead, Rob, if you're watching this, then this is from Iran.
A
I'm not around anymore.
C
Oh, my God.
D
What? If you don't know, I'm from Iran.
A
And a massacre happened in the past.
D
Few weeks by our government, which is.
A
More like the bandit group.
D
More than 40,000 people died, killed, massacred. More than Russia and Ukraine war and.
A
More than Israel and Palestine war.
D
I want to make this video to send a message to America and to.
B
The west in general.
D
Tomorrow, on Friday, President Trump is going.
A
To make a deal with this regime.
D
I mean, he told us to keep.
A
Protesting and we did it.
D
We trust him to make a deal with this regime. It's to betray all those people who died.
C
So please.
D
I beg you, do whatever you can to stop this deal.
B
I mean, many people say that we.
D
Should take matters in our own hand, but how can you fight people with guns? I mean, it's not just the government. The government itself hired terrorists groups, Muslim terrorist groups, to kill people.
A
And we still don't know what they.
B
Did with the bodies. Okay, this is Poria Hamidi you just saw. Okay. In the. After sharing the video, Hamidi reportedly took his own life. According to the Iranian opposition news outlet, more than 40,000 people have been killed, died, massacred. More than the Russia Ukraine war and more than the Israel Palestine war, which he mentioned in a 10 minute video which was done in English to make a deal with the regime to betray all those people who died. He's making that message. I tweeted something a few days ago about this and here's what the reality is, Rob. If you want to go to it about Iran, I think it's called a little bit lower. You should find it right there. Right there. Okay? Iran has zero intentions of negotiating. Here's their playbook. One, stall until domestic protests fade and regime stabilizes to stall until Trump is out. Three, quietly continue advancing its nuclear program. Delay is in diplomacy, its strategy. Never trust the irgc. Ever. Never trust the irgc. This is what's going on right now. And the reality of it is if they do a deal, these guys are just sitting there saying, listen, say whatever you want to them. We're not going to do anything. That's what they're saying behind closed doors and make the deal happen. Who cares? Give it to him. And then we're going to do everything behind closed doors. Not like they can come and find out what we're working on. They're not going to find out, nothing like that. So if they do make a deal, do you know when is the next time Iran will have a shot at pushing the IRGC out? You know, how long? Say 20 to 40 years. If they make a deal, 20 to 40 years, they will stay in power. Adam, your thoughts?
C
Here's my thoughts. It's absolutely disgusting what's going on in Iran, but it's just as disgusting, the silence that's going on on the far left. Zero protest, nothing. Can I get a tweet? Can I get a hey, maybe don't kill people? And to all the people who said Iran's not a threat to America, the Dave Smiths of the world, the Candace who's going, oh, you know, it's probably just a ploy that Israel, it's all Bibi. These are Persians, Iranians risking their own lives, taking their own lives for you to hear what. Hear what they have going on, and you have nothing to say. So we all know what the Ayatollah and the IRG stands for. They're basically like an abusive, abusive husband that talks a bunch of trash. And then when they go to fight, a real tough guy, they get their butt kicked. So what do they do? They go home and they beat on their wife and their kids. Oh, real tough. So you're gonna go kill your citizens. They don't have weapons. They have chants and slogans. And when they speak out, you go and murder your own people. Not by the hundreds, not by the thousands, by the tens of tens of thousands. And then you have the nerve, as the abusive husband, to criticize your neighbor, the good guy, because he didn't keep his lawn clean. This is hypocrisy of the highest level. And we all understand that if anything's going to happen, way more lives are going to be lost to this disgusting regime. And unfortunately, I don't see an end in sight.
B
Yeah. So God willing, let's see. The one thing that Trump said is very important, what he said, out of everything he said in that one interview about Iran, you know what was the most powerful thing he said is he said, just remember what we did with Venezuela took a while. We have time. We have a lot of time. You know, we'll see. We'll see what's going to happen. What is he trying to say? That is how an unpredictable player speaks, and that's exactly where he needs to be. It's not good for the Iranian people, not for the Iranian people that are going through it, that are getting killed on a daily basis. It's not good for them. But you have to realize Trump's responsibility, as, as frustrating as this may be on Iranians, Trump's responsibility is not Iran. Trump's responsibility is America first. That's Trump's responsibility. So if he wanted to go like what he did with Nigeria, boom. What he did with the nuclear sites, boom. What he did with Venezuela, boom. What he's trying to do with Greenland or Cuba or all these other places, you know, you know what they're trying to do with Iran, it is. It doesn't look like the urgency is there, but maybe that is a part of their negotiation. I don't know what they're going to get out of the deal.
C
I think, I think it is America first to take out Iran. Because if you actually just be cold blooded about it and you say, who we really worried about? China, I. Where does China get there?
B
I think so. People know my position of why I think it is, but to him, his job isn't to be as urgent as anybody else. There are people. If you're Iranian, where does America lie in your priority of countries? Not one. If you're Iranian, not one. It's Iran first. If you're from Iran, if you live in Israel, what is number one? Israel first. If you live in Nigeria, what is it? First? It should be your national. You should be a nationalist.
C
Unfortunately, we have a lot of people in America who hate America, though.
B
Yeah, well, you know, it is what it is.
C
By the way, Pat, that, that kid, I don't know if you caught the last 10 seconds of what he said. Is it possible to play that again? I want, I want this, to me is what the Iranian regime is. He says the regime brings in terrorists from other countries.
B
It was in the last 10 seconds, but he said it. Yeah, anyways.
C
To kill their own people.
B
He did. He did.
C
And you know who those people are? Those Shia militias. That's Hezbollah, of course, that's Hamas. So the people that you're cheering for are being brought in to kill innocent Iranians. I want to know how the far left thinks about that.
B
All right, lot covered today, Rob. I don't know how many stories we hit, but we hit a lot of different stories today. Great podcast on Monday, gang. I don't normally do an interview where I tell everybody and everybody in my circle to watch. This is one of those interviews. I was not expecting it to be this good of an interview. The founder of Ritz Carlton, I invited him. You guys know, after the incident we had at Fort Lauderdale Ritz. I said, let me just reach out to the CEO myself. And I reached out to him and he accepted the invitation, flew out. We did a two hour, 20 minute podcast. And this is a man that was born in 1939 in Stuttgart, Germany. January 10th. Eight months later, Hitler invades Poland and his father had to join the military. And he goes from there to going into the hotel business. He told his parents he wants to do that at 11. At 14, they ship him out. He goes, works for a hotel and then eventually creates Ritz Carlton, takes it from regular brand to the number one hotel brand in the world for customer service. And then when he left, it drops from number one to 26 today. And I pushed him to talk about Ritz and he did. Here's a quick trailer of the interview that's coming out tomorrow.
C
Go ahead.
B
Rob came to a conclusion. I'm working for barbarians. No fish knives, no fish fork.
D
And they live in a situation where human beings shouldn't live.
B
My father joined the Nazi party because he had always worked.
D
And my grandfather was a unique character. Said if our son died, he will die, too.
B
So living in that environment impacts your life in a big way as a kid, no doubt. I will never go to that Ritz Carlton in Fort Lauderdale ever again.
D
You understand?
B
I cannot compromise that.
D
You understand? I'm getting upset.
B
I said, there is no, no way. This has horse's standard. And Daniel said, and don't come to work tomorrow. Come here to create excellence.
D
Now, I didn't get that you were.
B
Number one when you guys left.
C
Oh, sure.
B
They dropped from one to 26. And Capella's number one. Yeah, I insisted. Wherever we are, we are number one, period. And I dealt with the general manager.
D
Will you accept that?
B
What's your superpower? Relentless. Let me tell you, you're going to love this guy. You talk about faith, politics, Hitler, everything. He talked about finance, money, marriage, parenting, been married for 47 years, has got four girls like. It's an all around incredible interview.
D
When's it come out?
B
Tomorrow morning, 9am it's going to be phenomenal. Anyways, having said that, guys. Yes, One last thing, one last thing.
D

This lively episode centers on the cultural impact and controversy surrounding Super Bowl 60’s halftime shows, particularly the performances by Bad Bunny during the main event and an alternative show hosted by Turning Point USA (TPUSA). The hosts dissect the game, halftime performances, commercials, the shifting focus of the NFL and advertisers, and broader social and political themes—ranging from media scandals to US Olympic athlete conduct, the Epstein files, and instability in New York City governance. In typical PBD Podcast fashion, the conversation is both sharp and irreverent, with healthy debate and thoughtful analysis.

The episode is candid, at times combative, but consistently energetic and informed. The hosts blend irreverence (“King of Trolls”), sharp critique, and humor with a clear sense of patriotism and skepticism about institutional power.
This episode captures the pulse of America’s culture wars—often refracted through sport, celebrity, politics, and business. Listeners come away with a sense of the evolving battle for audience and cultural influence, as well as an unflinching critique of leaders—whether in sports, politics, or media—who appear out of touch with popular sentiment.
