This is the Rob Carson Show. Hello and welcome to Monday already the 16th of February. That's how I say it. February. Anyway, 2026, 250th birthday of our. Of our glorious republic and we got a lot of stuff to get to this hour. The Epstein files. Pam Body released all of them. Everything. Released it all. Released Release the hounds. All Epstein related materials and the list of names. 300 names and some of them are irrelevant. Like Elvis Presley's name. It said that. And he's been dead for, you know, 50 years almost. So. So there's that he was dated in 1977. So 49 years ago. I'm not thinking that Elvis went to. Took the Lisa Marie and, and flew to Epstein Island. That was the name of his jet by the way. Not. And his daughter too. So he didn't take his daughter to Epstein island and he didn't take his plane to Epstein. Got that coming up. Got that coming up a second. I do want to mention something real quick. You know, we talk about the price of tuition going up couple hundred percent in the last 35 years. But you know, one cost and one item that has gone up way past the, the rate of inflation. I mean, extremely. Girl Scout cookies. I'm out at every. Everywhere I went, I ended up buying Girl Scout cookies at Best Buy. So I'm in Best Buy. There's a table of Girl Scouts there and they got their cookies and everything. And it's three for $18, $6 a piece. Now back when I lived in Washington D.C. 12 years ago, they were like $2.50, $3. Now they're $6 for a little thing of Girl Scout cookies. And of course I bought three, I got three. And then I go over to mail my purchase at Best Buy and they sold me a protection package on the Girl Scout cookies. A three year protection package on the Girl Scout cookies. I'm not even sure why. I don't know what they're protecting me from, but that's what they do. You know, you buy an extension cord at Best Buy, you want the extended service warranty. I bought an extension cord. I know, but it's only $19.95. I know the extension cord was five bucks. So anyway, girls got, girls got cookies, $6, $6. I bought, I gave them a 20. I said, keep the change. You filled the animals. And. And then I brought the cookies here to work because I ain't gonna eat those cookies. I'm not gonna eat those cookies. I want to. You know why they call them Samoas? Because when you eat one, you want Samoa. That's just the way it is. Anyway, let's talk about the Epstein files. Pam Body released all Epstein files names Trump, Biden, Zuckerberg, Tucker Carlson. Among politically exposed persons, according to this. And then there's of course this from ABC News this morning, a new document coming to light. Claims in the mid-2000s, President Trump called police about Jeffrey Epstein. Among the 3 million Epstein files released by the Department of Justice last month is a four page FBI report on an interview the Bureau conducted in 2019 with the man believed to be former Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Ryder. Writer and his detectives began investigating Epstein for human trafficking in 2004, according to the doc. Wow, if they would have listened to Donald Trump, a whole lot of suffering and pain might have, might have stopped. And Trump called Writer around that time and said, thank goodness you're stopping him. Everyone has known he's been doing this. Writer also says Trump said he threw Epstein out of his club and he.
