00:00:00,240 –> 00:00:00,960
OK, Karen,
2
00:00:00,960 –> 00:00:02,080
you know what they’re saying now?
3
00:00:02,240 –> 00:00:03,680
Mainstream media is dead.
4
00:00:04,080 –> 00:00:05,400
Mainstream media is dead.
5
00:00:05,520 –> 00:00:06,160
They blew it.
6
00:00:06,160 –> 00:00:07,200
Nobody believes in them.
7
00:00:07,360 –> 00:00:10,640
And the new alternative media is the future.
8
00:00:11,200 –> 00:00:12,080
That’s horseshit.
9
00:00:12,800 –> 00:00:13,520
That’s horseshit.
10
00:00:14,080 –> 00:00:17,960
Because sitting around on a podcast just talking about
11
00:00:17,960 –> 00:00:20,080
shit isn’t journalism.
12
00:00:20,720 –> 00:00:22,720
What are they doing on the podcast that they’re sitting
13
00:00:22,720 –> 00:00:26,360
around talking about stuff the mainstream media already
14
00:00:26,960 –> 00:00:29,360
Like, what’s a Luigi Mangione?
15
00:00:30,160 –> 00:00:31,040
The assassin.
16
00:00:32,400 –> 00:00:36,800
Did Joe Rogan or any anybody actually go out?
17
00:00:36,880 –> 00:00:37,840
The Kelsey brothers.
18
00:00:37,840 –> 00:00:38,880
The Kelsey brothers.
19
00:00:39,040 –> 00:00:42,040
Did they go out and and do the the gum shooing,
20
00:00:42,040 –> 00:00:42,640
the sleuthing,
21
00:00:42,640 –> 00:00:43,920
standing in the cold,
22
00:00:44,080 –> 00:00:45,360
going to the youth hostel,
23
00:00:45,400 –> 00:00:45,920
any of this?
24
00:00:46,240 –> 00:00:50,240
No, it’s just talking chitchat bullshit.
25
00:00:51,960 –> 00:00:52,480
And by the way,
26
00:00:52,480 –> 00:00:53,520
appreciate you all.
27
00:00:54,160 –> 00:00:58,720
I heard you at the Killer Cares charity event.
28
00:00:59,440 –> 00:01:01,200
Thank you for listening and trusting us.
29
00:01:01,440 –> 00:01:04,320
We do original work.
30
00:01:04,560 –> 00:01:06,240
Let me remind you what this program’s about.
31
00:01:06,720 –> 00:01:08,160
We do our own work,
32
00:01:08,480 –> 00:01:11,520
or we have people on that do the work,
33
00:01:11,520 –> 00:01:14,080
or we have the people on that are in the news or make
34
00:01:14,080 –> 00:01:14,320
the news.
35
00:01:14,480 –> 00:01:15,280
That’s what we do.
36
00:01:15,280 –> 00:01:16,720
That sounds good,
37
00:01:17,280 –> 00:01:18,160
That makes a difference.
38
00:01:18,240 –> 00:01:19,280
You want to be part of it?
39
00:01:20,600 –> 00:01:21,280
Where do I apply?
40
00:01:21,320 –> 00:01:22,760
Here you go.
41
00:01:22,760 –> 00:01:23,760
There you go.
42
00:01:24,400 –> 00:01:25,400
Get your number down right there.
43
00:01:26,480 –> 00:01:27,920
Case in point.
44
00:01:29,120 –> 00:01:29,920
In Lansing,
45
00:01:29,920 –> 00:01:33,280
they’re up there doing the secretive lame duck legislative
46
00:01:34,000 –> 00:01:36,400
session where they’re trying to ram through a whole
47
00:01:36,400 –> 00:01:40,560
bunch of bullshit before the holiday cause nobody
48
00:01:40,560 –> 00:01:43,720
would even dream of doing these things before the
49
00:01:43,720 –> 00:01:45,680
election cause you’d be out on your ass.
50
00:01:45,920 –> 00:01:54,040
So Ken Beck and I in cohesion with the enjoyer.com,
51
00:01:54,040 –> 00:01:55,280
michiganenjoyer.com,
52
00:01:55,760 –> 00:01:56,880
went up to Lansing.
53
00:01:57,200 –> 00:02:00,240
To have a look at what the fuck they’re doing and how
54
00:02:00,240 –> 00:02:01,600
they’re wasting our money.
55
00:02:01,760 –> 00:02:03,040
This is original.
56
00:02:03,440 –> 00:02:04,480
You’re going to love it.
57
00:02:13,200 –> 00:02:14,160
What am I doing?
58
00:02:14,160 –> 00:02:16,640
Smoking a butt while sitting on the crapper at the
59
00:02:16,640 –> 00:02:18,000
Michigan State Capitol?
60
00:02:18,640 –> 00:02:19,520
Let me explain.
61
00:02:20,080 –> 00:02:22,960
Turns out Lansing’s a great place to work because no
62
00:02:22,960 –> 00:02:24,320
one has to work there.
63
00:02:24,760 –> 00:02:26,400
They’re all at home in their jammies,
64
00:02:26,400 –> 00:02:29,400
coming up with schemes to waste your money while they’re
65
00:02:29,400 –> 00:02:32,080
still working under the COVID telecommute rules.
66
00:02:32,480 –> 00:02:33,600
Is anybody working?
67
00:02:42,560 –> 00:02:44,160
Lansing’s a ghost town.
68
00:02:44,680 –> 00:02:49,120
I’m told about 43,000 of the state’s 50,000 employees
69
00:02:49,280 –> 00:02:51,120
work at least some time at home.
70
00:02:51,680 –> 00:02:54,320
And that doesn’t include the legislature or governor
71
00:02:55,280 –> 00:02:57,520
Those numbers are a state secret.
72
00:02:57,760 –> 00:03:01,000
So why are they sitting at home scheming to give a
73
00:03:01,000 –> 00:03:04,960
Detroit billionaire $1 billion for an empty building
74
00:03:05,160 –> 00:03:09,280
when the state is spending $1 billion on empty buildings?
75
00:03:09,920 –> 00:03:10,880
And that’s not all.
76
00:03:11,280 –> 00:03:14,000
The work from home waste drills of the state legislature
77
00:03:14,240 –> 00:03:18,160
are trying to ram home a plethora of dung legislation
78
00:03:18,400 –> 00:03:20,640
during the secret lame duck hearings.
79
00:03:21,280 –> 00:03:23,520
So we convene a hearing of our own.
80
00:03:23,920 –> 00:03:26,320
Are you telling me they want to give driver’s licenses
81
00:03:26,320 –> 00:03:27,440
to illegal aliens?
82
00:03:27,760 –> 00:03:28,560
Not only that,
83
00:03:28,560 –> 00:03:31,280
Sir, but they want to increase fees on our driver’s
84
00:03:31,280 –> 00:03:32,080
licenses.
85
00:03:32,480 –> 00:03:35,280
And it’s your testimony that they want to teach transgender
86
00:03:35,280 –> 00:03:37,520
sex education and put tampons in the boys’
87
00:03:37,520 –> 00:03:38,080
bathrooms.
88
00:03:38,360 –> 00:03:40,680
And they want to have early prison release for people
89
00:03:40,680 –> 00:03:42,640
that committed murder before they’re 18.
90
00:03:42,960 –> 00:03:45,920
And free water and subsidized housing for people making
91
00:03:45,920 –> 00:03:46,960
a middle class income.
92
00:03:47,520 –> 00:03:51,360
And gas tax and toll roads and fees for people who
93
00:03:51,360 –> 00:03:52,240
sell tobacco.
94
00:03:52,480 –> 00:03:54,920
And it’s your testimony that the roads are broken and
95
00:03:54,920 –> 00:03:56,560
the schools are stupid in Michigan.
96
00:03:56,640 –> 00:03:57,880
And to make matters worse,
97
00:03:57,880 –> 00:03:59,120
Sir, Lansing’s empty.
98
00:03:59,120 –> 00:04:01,360
We’re paying a billion dollars for the office space
99
00:04:01,600 –> 00:04:02,320
and we want to give.
100
00:04:02,440 –> 00:04:06,560
Billion dollars to a billionaire downtown to buy empty
101
00:04:06,560 –> 00:04:07,440
office space.
102
00:04:07,520 –> 00:04:10,760
This whole thing’s out of here.
103
00:04:10,760 –> 00:04:13,200
I wanted some answers from someone in charge.
104
00:04:14,240 –> 00:04:15,200
Nobody here.
105
00:04:16,080 –> 00:04:17,120
Speaker of the House.
106
00:04:17,240 –> 00:04:19,880
And that’s not a bad thing if you’re pulling a government
107
00:04:20,640 –> 00:04:21,680
Late 30, Joe.
108
00:04:22,960 –> 00:04:24,880
No pesky citizens to deal with.
109
00:04:25,120 –> 00:04:26,800
No lies at the coffee pot.
110
00:04:27,240 –> 00:04:30,960
No fish smells from the microwave and no annoying phone
111
00:04:30,960 –> 00:04:33,760
calls to ruin your afternoon nap.
112
00:04:35,040 –> 00:04:36,320
The building was empty,
113
00:04:36,320 –> 00:04:38,800
so I thought I’d go to the John and have myself a
114
00:04:38,800 –> 00:04:39,440
cigarette.
115
00:04:40,040 –> 00:04:41,520
I mean, who’s it going to bother?
116
00:04:42,280 –> 00:04:44,400
And you’ll never guess what I discovered.
117
00:04:44,800 –> 00:04:47,280
Duply in a depression.
118
00:04:48,720 –> 00:04:49,360
Last year,
119
00:04:49,360 –> 00:04:52,120
the state of Michigan was required to list how many
120
00:04:52,120 –> 00:04:55,120
people were working from home and what it cost.
121
00:04:55,840 –> 00:04:56,960
But not this year.
122
00:04:58,960 –> 00:05:01,680
So I went to ask the director of the Department of
123
00:05:01,680 –> 00:05:02,480
Technology,
124
00:05:02,480 –> 00:05:03,680
Management and Budget,
125
00:05:04,080 –> 00:05:06,400
who’s supposed to be in charge of all this.
126
00:05:07,520 –> 00:05:08,400
So it’s not working.
127
00:05:08,400 –> 00:05:08,960
Is that what it?
128
00:05:08,960 –> 00:05:09,680
That’s what I got.
129
00:05:09,920 –> 00:05:11,600
The director’s phone is not working.
130
00:05:12,640 –> 00:05:14,280
Director of Buildings and Management,
131
00:05:14,280 –> 00:05:15,680
Budget, Technology.
132
00:05:17,000 –> 00:05:17,720
Vote’s not working.
133
00:05:18,360 –> 00:05:19,920
Getting no answers there,
134
00:05:20,400 –> 00:05:22,640
I visited the mortician across the street.
135
00:05:23,200 –> 00:05:24,480
He showed up to work.
136
00:05:24,600 –> 00:05:25,880
Why is this town so bad?
137
00:05:27,680 –> 00:05:30,160
I think they’re still all working at home.
138
00:05:30,880 –> 00:05:32,400
Billions for billionaires,
139
00:05:32,800 –> 00:05:34,960
driver’s licenses for illegals,
140
00:05:35,360 –> 00:05:38,400
failing schools and people who don’t show up for work.
141
00:05:38,960 –> 00:05:39,760
We’re broke,
142
00:05:40,120 –> 00:05:41,760
and yet we’re paying for it all.
143
00:05:43,040 –> 00:05:44,640
Lansing needs an enema.
144
00:05:45,040 –> 00:05:48,960
We need someone to come up here and wipe out the waste.
145
00:05:55,360 –> 00:05:58,120
Live from downtown Detroit,
146
00:05:58,400 –> 00:06:02,960
it’s the No Bullshit News Hour with my main man,
147
00:06:03,480 –> 00:06:09,440
Charlie Lazard and Karen Dumitz.
148
00:06:10,880 –> 00:06:13,600
This is just breaking his double or bullshit.
149
00:06:13,840 –> 00:06:14,720
Double or bullshit.
150
00:06:16,040 –> 00:06:16,880
Well, as you just saw,
151
00:06:16,880 –> 00:06:18,240
the politicians lie to you.
152
00:06:18,240 –> 00:06:19,600
The media lies to you.
153
00:06:19,600 –> 00:06:21,600
And how do you know if your investment statements are
154
00:06:21,600 –> 00:06:22,200
lying to you?
155
00:06:22,640 –> 00:06:24,560
Remember, you’re not managing your wealth.
156
00:06:24,800 –> 00:06:27,440
That’s some unseen guy working for a big bank,
157
00:06:27,680 –> 00:06:29,840
jockeying some unknown logarithm.
158
00:06:30,240 –> 00:06:30,760
Algorithm.
159
00:06:30,760 –> 00:06:32,960
What’s the difference between an algorithm and a logarithm?
160
00:06:33,680 –> 00:06:35,360
I I would call Luke or somebody.
161
00:06:35,360 –> 00:06:35,760
I don’t know.
162
00:06:36,200 –> 00:06:40,960
OK, Luke Nowacki at 248-663-4748 Pinnacle Wealth Management.

Your guy’s not making decisions based on what’s best
164
00:06:45,160 –> 00:06:48,160
He’s making decisions on what’s best for his bonus,
165
00:06:48,480 –> 00:06:50,400
gambling with your hard-earned dollars.
166
00:06:50,640 –> 00:06:51,600

00:07:38,800 –> 00:07:39,760
Very nice way to live.
184
00:07:40,160 –> 00:07:42,800
It’s the antithesis of the cold corporate nursing homes
185
00:07:42,960 –> 00:07:44,680
we’ve all now heard so much about.
186
00:07:45,120 –> 00:07:47,600
Archangel has formed partnerships with the School of
187
00:07:47,600 –> 00:07:49,600
Nursing and Majestic Residences,
188
00:07:49,600 –> 00:07:52,320
a home-based assisted living franchise system.
189
00:07:52,640 –> 00:07:53,440
You guys hear that?
190
00:07:53,440 –> 00:07:54,240
That’s how it works.
191
00:07:54,480 –> 00:07:56,640
The partnership provides authentic caregivers.
192
00:07:56,960 –> 00:07:59,200
With the tools and training necessary to manage their
193
00:07:59,440 –> 00:08:00,480
own care homes,
194
00:08:00,720 –> 00:08:03,920
and Archangel investors in that real estate can feel
195
00:08:03,920 –> 00:08:07,280
secure in both their investment and the care teams.
196
00:08:07,760 –> 00:08:08,720
The care is genuine,
197
00:08:08,720 –> 00:08:09,840
the owners are local,
198
00:08:10,000 –> 00:08:11,840
and Archangel has Overwatch.
199
00:08:12,000 –> 00:08:14,640
If interested in this trailblazing opportunity,
200
00:08:14,880 –> 00:08:20,160
contact Archangel at 989-614-0416,
201
00:08:20,400 –> 00:08:23,600
989-614-0416.
202
00:08:24,160 –> 00:08:26,640
Do you realize how simple but significant that is?
203
00:08:27,520 –> 00:08:28,880
I mean, just that concept.
204
00:08:29,800 –> 00:08:30,640
OK, call it.
205
00:08:31,240 –> 00:08:35,840
I just want to make sure that you realize that 989-614-0416.
206
00:08:35,840 –> 00:08:38,320
Yeah, the industry’s kind of quaking about that.
207
00:08:38,760 –> 00:08:42,360
It’s time that there’s so much that needs to be changed
208
00:08:42,480 –> 00:08:43,440
so much, you know,
209
00:08:43,440 –> 00:08:45,680
and that’s what they promised us up in Lansing.
210
00:08:46,080 –> 00:08:49,280
Like you know where they’re trying to ram something
211
00:08:49,280 –> 00:08:52,800
through where it’s got to do with pharmacies and access
212
00:08:52,800 –> 00:08:53,440
in rural,
213
00:08:53,520 –> 00:08:56,320
rural areas and.
214
00:08:56,920 –> 00:08:59,760
All the representatives on the committee are OK,
215
00:08:59,760 –> 00:09:00,360
we’re for it.
216
00:09:00,360 –> 00:09:01,680
We want to protect people.
217
00:09:01,840 –> 00:09:03,280
Then Big Pharma comes in,
218
00:09:03,480 –> 00:09:07,160
drops 5 grand and everybody’s 501C4 and all of a sudden
219
00:09:07,160 –> 00:09:08,480
it doesn’t make it out of committee.
220
00:09:08,720 –> 00:09:09,840
And then, you know,
221
00:09:10,080 –> 00:09:12,800
people in the countryside are poor and then you’re
222
00:09:12,800 –> 00:09:15,840
squeezing them when you promised that you would look
223
00:09:15,840 –> 00:09:16,480
out for them.
224
00:09:16,880 –> 00:09:18,080
And you saw that.
225
00:09:18,080 –> 00:09:19,440
You see what’s going on in Lansing.
226
00:09:19,520 –> 00:09:21,760
Nobody’s looking out for anybody but themselves.
227
00:09:21,840 –> 00:09:23,080
Oh my God,
228
00:09:23,960 –> 00:09:25,680
That’s the reality that we’re facing.
229
00:09:25,680 –> 00:09:29,000
The people that are in place to make decisions for
230
00:09:29,000 –> 00:09:32,240
those who put them there are getting nothing in return.
231
00:09:32,320 –> 00:09:32,960
And what the fuck?
232
00:09:33,040 –> 00:09:34,480
Hey, what the fuck,
233
00:09:35,520 –> 00:09:39,360
40,000 out of 50,000 people control.
234
00:09:39,440 –> 00:09:41,280
They’re still working under COVID rules.
235
00:09:42,000 –> 00:09:42,160
Oh, I know.
236
00:09:42,400 –> 00:09:43,880
They’re probably wearing masks at home,
237
00:09:44,880 –> 00:09:45,280
You know, like,
238
00:09:45,280 –> 00:09:46,280
I’m a constituent.
239
00:09:46,280 –> 00:09:47,160
You know, I’m a reporter.
240
00:09:47,160 –> 00:09:48,960
Like, phones don’t work.
241
00:09:49,120 –> 00:09:51,040
Speaker of the house isn’t at work.
242
00:09:51,040 –> 00:09:52,120
The bureaucrats aren’t.
243
00:09:52,760 –> 00:09:55,720
Fucking nothing’s getting done.
244
00:09:56,520 –> 00:09:57,520
The budget’s ballooned.
245
00:09:57,520 –> 00:09:59,160
What, 40% under Whitmer?
246
00:09:59,240 –> 00:10:00,280
We don’t have the money.
247
00:10:00,360 –> 00:10:01,640
The school’s got a cut.
248
00:10:02,760 –> 00:10:04,960
You want to give driver’s licenses to illegals.
249
00:10:04,960 –> 00:10:08,200
Those are really weird things to push through,
250
00:10:08,200 –> 00:10:09,680
I think, for a lame duck session.
251
00:10:10,280 –> 00:10:11,880
I mean, who does that benefit?
252
00:10:11,880 –> 00:10:12,400
Who does that help?
253
00:10:12,560 –> 00:10:14,240
But is that what they do in lame duck?
254
00:10:14,360 –> 00:10:14,840
No, I know,
255
00:10:15,240 –> 00:10:16,760
but usually,
256
00:10:16,920 –> 00:10:19,560
usually to their benefits of their friends and families,
257
00:10:21,840 –> 00:10:22,160
I don’t know.
258
00:10:22,160 –> 00:10:23,000
Bad policy.
259
00:10:23,080 –> 00:10:24,840
I think it’s really interesting too.
260
00:10:24,840 –> 00:10:27,800
Like that you see the Democrats going on TV and we
261
00:10:27,800 –> 00:10:30,760
really blew it and we’re not connecting with anybody.
262
00:10:30,760 –> 00:10:31,560
And these,
263
00:10:31,640 –> 00:10:33,400
that’s why these issues of ours,
264
00:10:33,400 –> 00:10:33,760
you’re right.
265
00:10:33,760 –> 00:10:38,840
These issues of ours were were scattershot and not
266
00:10:38,840 –> 00:10:39,720
what regular we need.
267
00:10:39,720 –> 00:10:41,320
We need to reconnect with people,
268
00:10:41,720 –> 00:10:43,560
The media of mea culpa.
269
00:10:43,560 –> 00:10:44,680
Look here,
270
00:10:44,680 –> 00:10:45,080
here’s one.
271
00:10:45,080 –> 00:10:45,800
Here’s one right here.
272
00:10:47,320 –> 00:10:49,000
This is New York Times today.
273
00:10:50,240 –> 00:10:51,240
Here’s the New York Times.
274
00:10:53,920 –> 00:10:57,720
An unprecedented surge in immigration.
275
00:10:58,040 –> 00:11:03,800
OK, so the New York Times decides in recent weeks to
276
00:11:03,800 –> 00:11:07,720
analyze the magnitude of the recent migrant surge
277
00:11:07,720 –> 00:11:08,680
in the United States.
278
00:11:08,840 –> 00:11:09,760
Want to know their findings?
279
00:11:09,880 –> 00:11:11,200
But they they just found this out.
280
00:11:11,560 –> 00:11:13,080
OK, number one,
281
00:11:14,520 –> 00:11:17,400
the surge since 2021 has been the largest in U.S.
282
00:11:18,280 –> 00:11:19,640
OK, no surprise.
283
00:11:20,280 –> 00:11:21,960
Well, they were denying it.
284
00:11:23,080 –> 00:11:25,720
Even after adjusting for today’s larger population,
285
00:11:26,040 –> 00:11:28,760
the surge is larger than that during the peak years
286
00:11:28,960 –> 00:11:29,960
of Ellis Island.
287
00:11:32,200 –> 00:11:35,560
The share of the US population born in another country
288
00:11:35,640 –> 00:11:38,720
has reached a record high all time in this country.
289
00:11:39,720 –> 00:11:43,560
President Biden’s welcoming immigration policy has
290
00:11:43,560 –> 00:11:46,200
been the main reason for the surge.
291
00:11:46,360 –> 00:11:48,240
So the New York Times is now declaring.
292
00:11:48,920 –> 00:11:53,240
That what Biden did was the reason for nearly four
293
00:11:53,480 –> 00:11:54,400
They denied it,
294
00:11:54,400 –> 00:11:56,520
denied that Harris was the borders czar,
295
00:11:57,160 –> 00:11:58,360
Trying to what the fuck?
296
00:11:58,600 –> 00:12:00,840
OK, is this article from 18 months ago?
297
00:12:01,480 –> 00:12:02,520
It was from today.
298
00:12:02,520 –> 00:12:03,040
Interesting.
299
00:12:03,160 –> 00:12:04,760
But there’s a change in administration.
300
00:12:04,760 –> 00:12:07,000
So now there’s got to be a change in conversation and
301
00:12:07,000 –> 00:12:07,880
change in tone.
302
00:12:07,880 –> 00:12:09,480
I mean, that’s what everybody does.
303
00:12:09,600 –> 00:12:10,840
Everybody’s a chameleon,
304
00:12:11,240 –> 00:12:14,760
more than half of net migration since 2021.
305
00:12:15,080 –> 00:12:18,360
Has been among people who entered the country illegally.
306
00:12:18,440 –> 00:12:19,960
They’re saying 8 million.
307
00:12:20,840 –> 00:12:22,520
They’re not counting the gotaways,
308
00:12:23,320 –> 00:12:28,320
The the cartel runners and people on the terror watch
309
00:12:28,320 –> 00:12:29,840
list, the ones that want to avoid,
310
00:12:29,960 –> 00:12:30,760
that’s 2 million.
311
00:12:31,240 –> 00:12:33,880
Here’s another thing that they forgot to put in the
312
00:12:33,880 –> 00:12:36,120
people that jump their visas.
313
00:12:36,120 –> 00:12:37,640
You come in on a tourist visa,
314
00:12:37,640 –> 00:12:39,720
you come in on a student visa.
315
00:12:39,880 –> 00:12:44,200
We’ve given out a record number of such visas.
316
00:12:44,920 –> 00:12:46,920
Conservatively speaking,
317
00:12:47,800 –> 00:12:50,840
at least 1,000,000 people a year do not leave,
318
00:12:51,840 –> 00:12:53,640
That that is from the United States government.
319
00:12:53,800 –> 00:12:55,320
So that’s another 4 million.
320
00:12:55,400 –> 00:12:57,040
You’re talking 15 million.
321
00:12:57,040 –> 00:12:58,760
This isn’t even accurate.
322
00:12:59,000 –> 00:13:01,120
And if we go back to 911 and those terrorists,
323
00:13:01,120 –> 00:13:02,760
they all overstay their visas.
324
00:13:02,760 –> 00:13:03,920
Most of them are student visas,
325
00:13:04,040 –> 00:13:04,520
I believe.
326
00:13:05,320 –> 00:13:07,640
And most people that are here legally are people that
327
00:13:07,640 –> 00:13:08,440
overstay their visas.
328
00:13:09,240 –> 00:13:10,600
And it only took 10.
329
00:13:10,920 –> 00:13:13,320
Of them to take down the Twin Towers.
330
00:13:13,680 –> 00:13:17,640
And now we get the same bullshit from Trudeau up up
331
00:13:17,640 –> 00:13:18,360
in Canada,
332
00:13:18,840 –> 00:13:20,040
That’s why Trump’s like,
333
00:13:20,280 –> 00:13:21,320
come kiss my ass.
334
00:13:25,320 –> 00:13:27,720
The unprecedented scale of recent immigration,
335
00:13:27,720 –> 00:13:28,760
says the New York Times,
336
00:13:29,960 –> 00:13:32,360
helps explain why the issue played such a big role
337
00:13:33,560 –> 00:13:35,840
Yet the New York Times couldn’t tell us during the
338
00:13:35,840 –> 00:13:37,440
election or tell us the truth.
339
00:13:37,640 –> 00:13:40,440
They’re so fucking decrepit and.
340
00:13:41,320 –> 00:13:45,280
#7 The recent immigration surge has probably ended.
341
00:13:45,800 –> 00:13:46,600
Next word,
342
00:13:49,160 –> 00:13:51,000
That’s going to be interesting.
343
00:13:51,000 –> 00:13:53,960
Like, what is his approach going to be as,
344
00:13:54,200 –> 00:13:54,520
you know,
345
00:13:54,520 –> 00:13:57,560
cutthroat as he’s conveying that it’s going to be
346
00:13:57,560 –> 00:13:58,440
like January.
347
00:13:58,440 –> 00:13:59,520
Well, I’m just.
348
00:13:59,560 –> 00:14:00,560
I mean, just,
349
00:14:00,680 –> 00:14:01,440
I mean, OK,
350
00:14:01,480 –> 00:14:02,200
cut and dry.
351
00:14:02,200 –> 00:14:04,120
Just very simple to the point.
352
00:14:04,120 –> 00:14:05,400
Is it as aggressive?
353
00:14:05,400 –> 00:14:06,600
Maybe aggressive is a better word.
354
00:14:07,240 –> 00:14:09,240
I think it’s being overstated because look.
355
00:14:09,880 –> 00:14:11,480
No one’s going after Babushka.
356
00:14:11,960 –> 00:14:13,400
No one’s going after Abuela.
357
00:14:14,320 –> 00:14:17,320
What we’re going to focus on is fucking criminals to
358
00:14:17,320 –> 00:14:17,840
begin with.
359
00:14:18,120 –> 00:14:20,440
A million people that are already been told to leave,
360
00:14:21,160 –> 00:14:24,000
another half million that have criminal records,
361
00:14:24,000 –> 00:14:28,120
including over 10,000 rapists and 10,000 murderers,
362
00:14:28,520 –> 00:14:29,720
We’re going to get them first.
363
00:14:29,840 –> 00:14:31,280
That’s a big job to begin with.
364
00:14:31,480 –> 00:14:32,520
So we’ll begin with that.
365
00:14:32,680 –> 00:14:34,040
And we’re going to zip this shit up.
366
00:14:34,120 –> 00:14:34,920
How hard is that?
367
00:14:35,920 –> 00:14:36,760
OK, well, we’ll see.
368
00:14:36,920 –> 00:14:37,560
You know what I mean?
369
00:14:37,800 –> 00:14:38,760
And Trudeau,
370
00:14:39,040 –> 00:14:41,280
old Pinko Pierre up there,
371
00:14:42,040 –> 00:14:42,840
Oh, wokey,
372
00:14:43,720 –> 00:14:46,120
Premier, pretty boy.
373
00:14:46,120 –> 00:14:47,880
You know what Trudeau means in French?
374
00:14:48,200 –> 00:14:48,680
Pretty boy.
375
00:14:48,760 –> 00:14:49,640
Waterhole.
376
00:14:50,760 –> 00:14:52,760
So he’s definitely old waterhole.
377
00:14:52,760 –> 00:14:56,600
Old that sweet the creature from the waterhole,
378
00:14:57,720 –> 00:15:00,520
With your dumb immigration policies over.
379
00:15:01,640 –> 00:15:03,080
Here’s one real big statistic.
380
00:15:03,960 –> 00:15:05,560
Half of the people.
381
00:15:06,680 –> 00:15:10,680
That the Canadian security apparatus flagged as a security
382
00:15:11,320 –> 00:15:12,520
They let him in anyway.
383
00:15:14,520 –> 00:15:18,320
And they’re coming here twice as many from Canada than
384
00:15:18,320 –> 00:15:20,040
from Mexico on the terror watch list.
385
00:15:20,440 –> 00:15:23,080
It’s been so awful.
386
00:15:23,720 –> 00:15:24,800
How do we localize this?
387
00:15:24,800 –> 00:15:25,800
Like our mission?
388
00:15:26,920 –> 00:15:29,720
They just got a Chilean gang in Oakland County busting
389
00:15:29,720 –> 00:15:30,840
into people’s homes.
390
00:15:31,080 –> 00:15:31,640
You know what I mean?
391
00:15:31,880 –> 00:15:32,920
You bust into homes.
392
00:15:33,000 –> 00:15:33,960
That’s violent.
393
00:15:34,440 –> 00:15:34,920
Yeah, it is.
394
00:15:34,920 –> 00:15:37,080
That’s that’s ultimate violence right there.
395
00:15:37,080 –> 00:15:37,640
That right,
396
00:15:38,280 –> 00:15:41,720
Rape, murder and busting into someone’s home and and
397
00:15:42,120 –> 00:15:43,160
diddling with children.
398
00:15:43,480 –> 00:15:45,080
Those are the four no go’s.
399
00:15:45,480 –> 00:15:46,920
No go and seniors.
400
00:15:47,640 –> 00:15:48,320
Oh yeah, yeah.
401
00:15:48,320 –> 00:15:49,560
And abusing seniors.
402
00:15:49,720 –> 00:15:53,640
That’s that’s the five cardinal sins of being a human
403
00:15:53,640 –> 00:15:54,680
being, right there.
404
00:15:54,680 –> 00:15:57,320
There should be honor among thieves if they would say
405
00:15:57,320 –> 00:15:58,480
those are things that are off the.
406
00:15:59,000 –> 00:16:00,520
Should be off the off the list.
407
00:16:00,920 –> 00:16:01,560
Like, you know,
408
00:16:02,280 –> 00:16:03,160
we’re Americans.
409
00:16:03,160 –> 00:16:03,640
You know what I mean?
410
00:16:03,640 –> 00:16:04,680
It’s very funky,
411
00:16:04,680 –> 00:16:05,960
very wide open here.
412
00:16:05,960 –> 00:16:08,360
Those are the five fucking things you do not do.
413
00:16:08,360 –> 00:16:09,720
And they’re doing them.
414
00:16:09,960 –> 00:16:14,480
So we got a Chilean gang work in Metro Detroit,
415
00:16:14,520 –> 00:16:15,160
busting at people.
416
00:16:15,160 –> 00:16:15,880
They busted them.
417
00:16:17,160 –> 00:16:18,200
What do we know about them?
418
00:16:18,680 –> 00:16:21,640
That they were on the visa waiver program.
419
00:16:21,640 –> 00:16:24,120
Do you all know what the visa waiver program is?
420
00:16:24,280 –> 00:16:27,880
The visa waiver program is if you’re from certain countries,
421
00:16:28,040 –> 00:16:28,760
they’re from Chile.
422
00:16:29,320 –> 00:16:30,760
Columbia being another one,
423
00:16:30,760 –> 00:16:33,960
you can fly into this fucking place called our home
424
00:16:34,360 –> 00:16:35,320
without a visa,
425
00:16:35,560 –> 00:16:37,480
without really no background check,
426
00:16:37,480 –> 00:16:40,400
as long as you leave before 90 days,
427
00:16:40,400 –> 00:16:41,320
which nobody does.
428
00:16:41,560 –> 00:16:42,680
That’s how they got in.
429
00:16:44,320 –> 00:16:46,920
This is what’s been going on in the New York Times,
430
00:16:47,880 –> 00:16:50,600
which helped lead to this insanity.
431
00:16:50,840 –> 00:16:52,520
They’re they’re responsible for it,
432
00:16:52,640 –> 00:16:54,200
and now they’re trying to dig backwards.
433
00:16:57,960 –> 00:17:01,760
I guess that sounds like account.
434
00:17:01,800 –> 00:17:03,320
I don’t even know how to describe it.
435
00:17:03,320 –> 00:17:04,920
But you think about when you travel,
436
00:17:05,240 –> 00:17:07,400
you know the problems that you have when you when
437
00:17:07,400 –> 00:17:09,160
you when you travel internationally,
438
00:17:09,160 –> 00:17:10,440
you know you’re stuck at customs,
439
00:17:10,440 –> 00:17:11,920
you’re stuck at all this stuff.
440
00:17:11,920 –> 00:17:14,280
And how is it just on the on the opposite and even
441
00:17:14,280 –> 00:17:15,000
coming home,
442
00:17:15,240 –> 00:17:16,120
you know you got us,
443
00:17:16,200 –> 00:17:17,240
you’re standing in line,
444
00:17:17,240 –> 00:17:19,440
you’re asking asked 20,000 questions.
445
00:17:19,440 –> 00:17:20,200
Let me see this.
446
00:17:20,200 –> 00:17:23,320
Like how is that so easy for everybody else and.
447
00:17:23,680 –> 00:17:25,440
It’s difficult for us to even come back home.
448
00:17:25,440 –> 00:17:26,560
And you know,
449
00:17:26,560 –> 00:17:27,480
when you travel like,
450
00:17:27,560 –> 00:17:27,760
you know,
451
00:17:27,800 –> 00:17:28,840
even the places,
452
00:17:29,240 –> 00:17:29,640
you know,
453
00:17:29,880 –> 00:17:32,280
allies, friendly countries where you don’t need a
454
00:17:32,280 –> 00:17:35,160
visa, you got to show them your vaccination papers.
455
00:17:35,160 –> 00:17:35,640
You got it.
456
00:17:35,640 –> 00:17:36,960
It’s it’s it’s a lot.
457
00:17:37,000 –> 00:17:38,120
But during COVID,
458
00:17:38,120 –> 00:17:40,720
we’re letting 2 million people in a year during during
459
00:17:40,720 –> 00:17:43,160
the pandemic that you all said freak out about.
460
00:17:43,560 –> 00:17:46,240
You didn’t say Boo that they just let these people
461
00:17:46,240 –> 00:17:48,000
come in, no vaccination,
462
00:17:48,000 –> 00:17:51,480
no requirement and paying for airplanes.
463
00:17:51,960 –> 00:17:54,360
That’s what this is insane.
464
00:17:55,600 –> 00:17:56,920
What’s the logic behind that,
465
00:17:57,160 –> 00:17:58,600
Mark, what’s the logic behind that?
466
00:17:58,760 –> 00:17:59,800
Oh, you’re asking me.
467
00:18:00,600 –> 00:18:01,480
The logic behind it.
468
00:18:01,480 –> 00:18:02,520
You’re the smart one here.
469
00:18:02,520 –> 00:18:03,000
I don’t know.
470
00:18:03,000 –> 00:18:04,360
Encourage tourism.
471
00:18:04,360 –> 00:18:05,320
That seems ridiculous,
472
00:18:06,200 –> 00:18:07,880
I mean, they’re claiming asylum.
473
00:18:07,960 –> 00:18:08,920
But think about this.
474
00:18:09,240 –> 00:18:11,440
We keep talking about population here in the city of
475
00:18:11,720 –> 00:18:12,960
All these people that are coming in,
476
00:18:13,280 –> 00:18:14,440
nobody’s coming here.
477
00:18:15,000 –> 00:18:16,120
No, like the popular,
478
00:18:16,120 –> 00:18:16,280
you know,
479
00:18:16,280 –> 00:18:17,400
Mike Doug and that guy,
480
00:18:18,120 –> 00:18:20,360
The population grew like 1000 people.
481
00:18:20,360 –> 00:18:21,320
Yeah, they’re illegals,
482
00:18:21,600 –> 00:18:23,880
And the population shrinking again.
483
00:18:24,120 –> 00:18:25,960
I look forward to that.
484
00:18:26,520 –> 00:18:30,200
Which what is what is the other thing like in this
485
00:18:30,280 –> 00:18:31,880
Luigi Mangione,
486
00:18:33,160 –> 00:18:37,440
The privileged hit man all of a sudden it’s going around
487
00:18:37,440 –> 00:18:37,880
the Internet.
488
00:18:38,200 –> 00:18:39,240
He’s a fucking hero.
489
00:18:39,400 –> 00:18:44,440
So a premeditated assassin is held to high regard.
490
00:18:44,600 –> 00:18:45,640
And at the same time,
491
00:18:45,880 –> 00:18:48,280
Daniel Penny is vilified,
492
00:18:48,280 –> 00:18:51,880
the Marine Samaritan trying to protect people.
493
00:18:52,600 –> 00:18:53,480
It goes badly,
494
00:18:53,480 –> 00:18:54,360
don’t get me wrong.
495
00:18:54,360 –> 00:18:57,160
It goes, what is going on here?
496
00:18:57,640 –> 00:19:00,360
But I think you have the intersection of economics,
497
00:19:00,360 –> 00:19:01,160
you know,
498
00:19:01,880 –> 00:19:04,840
You’ve got all those things that play into the perception,
499
00:19:04,840 –> 00:19:07,080
and I don’t necessarily think that people were happy.
500
00:19:07,560 –> 00:19:11,840
That the CEO of United Healthcare was murdered.
501
00:19:11,880 –> 00:19:13,640
I think they saw it as,
502
00:19:15,000 –> 00:19:15,480
you know,
503
00:19:15,480 –> 00:19:18,840
just some some kind of say it for me.
504
00:19:18,920 –> 00:19:20,240
They have a vindication.
505
00:19:20,280 –> 00:19:23,960
Thank you of what people are experiencing from the
506
00:19:23,960 –> 00:19:25,320
in the healthcare space here.
507
00:19:25,400 –> 00:19:27,280
I mean, so that’s not how we solve things though.
508
00:19:27,800 –> 00:19:28,880
That’s ridiculous.
509
00:19:28,880 –> 00:19:31,000
What like look,
510
00:19:31,080 –> 00:19:31,960
everybody’s.
511
00:19:33,480 –> 00:19:37,880
Gets angry and they say shit they shouldn’t and have
512
00:19:37,880 –> 00:19:39,400
a fleeting fantasy,
513
00:19:42,081 –> 00:19:42,961
To murder somebody.
514
00:19:42,961 –> 00:19:44,761
Like, no, there are people celebrating.
515
00:19:44,761 –> 00:19:45,681
There’s a lot of them.
516
00:19:46,001 –> 00:19:46,801
That’s not right.
517
00:19:46,801 –> 00:19:50,561
But that makes us all exposed.
518
00:19:51,281 –> 00:19:52,241
I’m sick of that person.
519
00:19:52,241 –> 00:19:52,641
What they say,
520
00:19:52,641 –> 00:19:53,881
they make me so fucking angry.
521
00:19:53,881 –> 00:19:55,281
I’m going to go do something to them,
522
00:19:55,641 –> 00:19:57,201
I mean, that’s not the way.
523
00:19:57,681 –> 00:19:59,761
The way is clean government for us.
524
00:19:59,761 –> 00:20:01,921
Not like what they’re doing up in Lansing.
525
00:20:02,001 –> 00:20:03,161
Yeah, you know what I mean?
526
00:20:03,281 –> 00:20:04,081
Vote differently.
527
00:20:04,321 –> 00:20:06,961
And and the when nothing goes right,
528
00:20:07,281 –> 00:20:09,681
when when none of these systems work.
529
00:20:10,721 –> 00:20:11,201
We’re not.
530
00:20:11,201 –> 00:20:13,041
We’re asking the judge,
531
00:20:13,281 –> 00:20:14,241
the wise person,
532
00:20:14,521 –> 00:20:15,601
We have the the law,
533
00:20:15,601 –> 00:20:17,921
the police and everything and and none of this works
534
00:20:18,081 –> 00:20:21,841
that the judge be the rational wise woman in all of
535
00:20:21,841 –> 00:20:24,241
this because there’s just a Gray area and we need
536
00:20:24,241 –> 00:20:26,801
you to be worldly.
537
00:20:27,761 –> 00:20:30,001
And I’m looking at the the Daniel Penny case,
538
00:20:30,721 –> 00:20:31,121
you know,
539
00:20:31,201 –> 00:20:36,001
who subdued Jordan Neely,
540
00:20:36,721 –> 00:20:39,441
A schizophrenic black man.
541
00:20:41,201 –> 00:20:45,761
Who was high and is one of the top 50 known troubled
542
00:20:46,321 –> 00:20:50,121
homeless people in a city of almost 9 million in and
543
00:20:50,121 –> 00:20:51,361
out of jail numerous times.
544
00:20:51,361 –> 00:20:53,881
Arrested 42 times in seven years.
545
00:20:54,241 –> 00:20:55,761
Yeah, punching old women,
546
00:20:55,761 –> 00:20:56,521
old men in the face.
547
00:20:56,721 –> 00:20:57,441
He’s violent.
548
00:20:57,441 –> 00:20:58,241
He’s well known.
549
00:20:58,401 –> 00:21:00,561
OK, so he comes in and he says.
550
00:21:01,121 –> 00:21:04,241
Someone’s gonna die today and I don’t care if I spend
551
00:21:04,241 –> 00:21:05,201
my life in prison.
552
00:21:05,361 –> 00:21:07,521
This from the witnesses on the train,
553
00:21:07,681 –> 00:21:08,801
people of color,
554
00:21:09,041 –> 00:21:10,241
people not of color,
555
00:21:10,241 –> 00:21:11,281
I guess, you know,
556
00:21:11,681 –> 00:21:12,401
who, by the way,
557
00:21:12,401 –> 00:21:14,881
have don’t have the privilege of knowing his background,
558
00:21:15,641 –> 00:21:16,801
And knowing that he’s troubled,
559
00:21:16,801 –> 00:21:19,361
he’s he is just at that point a random guy walking
560
00:21:19,361 –> 00:21:20,321
onto the subway saying.
561
00:21:20,801 –> 00:21:21,841
Someone’s going to die today,
562
00:21:22,281 –> 00:21:24,961
I lived in New York City for like many years.
563
00:21:25,201 –> 00:21:27,841
Yeah, when that shit happened and everybody kind of
564
00:21:27,841 –> 00:21:29,361
turns away and tries to ignore,
565
00:21:29,721 –> 00:21:31,721
But now, but now he’s a foot in your face and there’s
566
00:21:31,721 –> 00:21:32,401
children there.
567
00:21:32,481 –> 00:21:33,361
Yeah, you know,
568
00:21:33,561 –> 00:21:34,881
But if somebody says that today,
569
00:21:34,961 –> 00:21:38,001
you, you hear it differently than you may have years
570
00:21:38,001 –> 00:21:40,641
ago because people are so violent and they’re publicly
571
00:21:42,001 –> 00:21:43,761
So Daniel Penny,
572
00:21:43,761 –> 00:21:44,481
the ex-marine,
573
00:21:44,641 –> 00:21:46,601
he’s the Mr.
574
00:21:46,601 –> 00:21:47,201
Neely dies.
575
00:21:47,761 –> 00:21:50,081
So he’s charged with second-degree manslaughter.
576
00:21:50,281 –> 00:21:52,321
That’s the primary charge.
577
00:21:52,361 –> 00:21:55,521
And the secondary charge is criminally negligent homicide.
578
00:21:55,521 –> 00:22:00,361
So manslaughter carries a higher penalty than negligent
579
00:22:00,361 –> 00:22:00,881
homicide.
580
00:22:00,881 –> 00:22:03,041
OK, which still carries five years.
581
00:22:04,521 –> 00:22:05,201
Still pretty serious.
582
00:22:05,201 –> 00:22:06,241
And manslaughter’s 15.
583
00:22:06,801 –> 00:22:09,441
So the jury made-up of seven women,
584
00:22:09,921 –> 00:22:10,721
five men,
585
00:22:11,361 –> 00:22:12,401
seven whites,
586
00:22:13,441 –> 00:22:14,321
2 blacks,
587
00:22:15,041 –> 00:22:15,921
one Asian.
588
00:22:16,881 –> 00:22:18,001
No, no, I’m listening.
589
00:22:19,441 –> 00:22:22,321
And one Hispanic.
590
00:22:23,121 –> 00:22:24,401
That’s almost dead nuts,
591
00:22:24,401 –> 00:22:26,081
the makeup of the United States.
592
00:22:26,721 –> 00:22:30,721
So this isn’t some racist white power jury.
593
00:22:30,721 –> 00:22:34,321
This is people from New York considering all the facts.
594
00:22:34,321 –> 00:22:36,321
Now, what’s interesting,
595
00:22:37,601 –> 00:22:40,161
it was a hung jury on the big charge,
596
00:22:40,161 –> 00:22:40,801
manslaughter.
597
00:22:41,521 –> 00:22:42,081
Couldn’t decide.
598
00:22:42,081 –> 00:22:45,041
It was probably 10 not guilty and two guilty,
599
00:22:46,401 –> 00:22:50,321
So the judge in this case really wants some kind of
600
00:22:50,321 –> 00:22:51,041
adjudication,
601
00:22:51,041 –> 00:22:52,241
some kind of conviction.
602
00:22:52,961 –> 00:22:54,001
This is never heard of.
603
00:22:54,481 –> 00:22:56,001
Throws the charge out,
604
00:22:56,001 –> 00:22:57,361
says come back Monday.
605
00:22:57,521 –> 00:23:01,361
Forget that he’s now only charged with the lesser crime,
606
00:23:01,361 –> 00:23:04,041
which is criminally negligent homicide,
607
00:23:04,161 –> 00:23:06,881
to which I think the jury gets tired of being played
608
00:23:07,681 –> 00:23:10,161
and says now let him go.
609
00:23:10,161 –> 00:23:11,041
All right,
610
00:23:11,441 –> 00:23:12,321
well, here’s the deal.
611
00:23:12,321 –> 00:23:13,521
The instructions are this.
612
00:23:14,161 –> 00:23:15,361
Here’s the main charge.
613
00:23:15,761 –> 00:23:16,561
Manslaughter.
614
00:23:17,201 –> 00:23:18,241
If guilty,
615
00:23:18,721 –> 00:23:21,361
guilty, don’t consider the lesser charges.
616
00:23:22,321 –> 00:23:23,521
If not guilty,
617
00:23:23,601 –> 00:23:25,361
you may move to the lesser charge.
618
00:23:25,681 –> 00:23:26,761
So it wasn’t manslaughter.
619
00:23:26,761 –> 00:23:27,841
It was negligent homicide.
620
00:23:29,521 –> 00:23:33,161
The problem here is the jury didn’t reach a verdict
621
00:23:33,201 –> 00:23:34,561
of guilty or not guilty.
622
00:23:34,561 –> 00:23:35,201
They were hung.
623
00:23:35,201 –> 00:23:36,161
It’s a mistrial.
624
00:23:36,481 –> 00:23:37,601
And again.
625
00:23:38,801 –> 00:23:39,441
The judges,
626
00:23:39,441 –> 00:23:42,041
the legal system in New York is so perverted.
627
00:23:42,041 –> 00:23:43,521
That’s not American justice.
628
00:23:43,761 –> 00:23:44,961
That’s a mistrial.
629
00:23:45,201 –> 00:23:47,921
And you do it all over again now.
630
00:23:47,921 –> 00:23:51,121
And this is where people that don’t feel that Mister
631
00:23:51,121 –> 00:23:52,081
Neely got justice.
632
00:23:52,721 –> 00:23:55,201
You didn’t get justice because the judge perverted
633
00:23:55,201 –> 00:24:00,241
it and Penny can’t be brought back for the manslaughter
634
00:24:00,241 –> 00:24:02,081
because the judge dismissed it.
635
00:24:02,481 –> 00:24:05,041
This is why it fucks all of us.
636
00:24:06,081 –> 00:24:06,961
Sounds familiar,
637
00:24:08,441 –> 00:24:09,081
You know, it’s interesting,
638
00:24:09,081 –> 00:24:11,161
Karen, you were talking about perception and and what
639
00:24:11,161 –> 00:24:12,321
what’s going on out there.
640
00:24:12,481 –> 00:24:14,801
And it’s, I was always amazed that a lot of people
641
00:24:14,801 –> 00:24:17,041
compared this to George Floyd where,
642
00:24:17,041 –> 00:24:17,401
you know,
643
00:24:17,401 –> 00:24:19,041
a guy is is on the neck,
644
00:24:19,761 –> 00:24:21,841
Derek Chauvin on the neck of George Floyd for what,
645
00:24:21,921 –> 00:24:22,801
88 minutes,
646
00:24:23,281 –> 00:24:24,401
approximately 9 minutes,
647
00:24:25,361 –> 00:24:28,121
And the crux of this case of Daniel Penny is he strangled
648
00:24:28,121 –> 00:24:29,841
him for six minutes,
649
00:24:30,241 –> 00:24:32,121
And should he have known that that’s enough,
650
00:24:32,121 –> 00:24:34,081
which I I think that’s insane.
651
00:24:34,321 –> 00:24:36,961
It’s so different in that courtroom and what they’re
652
00:24:36,961 –> 00:24:40,001
talking about versus what they’re saying outside,
653
00:24:40,481 –> 00:24:42,641
You have one side saying this is a guy who’s been in
654
00:24:42,641 –> 00:24:43,041
out of jail,
655
00:24:43,041 –> 00:24:44,041
he’s a drug addict,
656
00:24:44,321 –> 00:24:45,161
This is why he died.
657
00:24:45,161 –> 00:24:47,121
And then you have another side saying he killed him
658
00:24:47,201 –> 00:24:48,401
simply cause he’s black.
659
00:24:48,881 –> 00:24:51,281
Neither of those really entered the trial.
660
00:24:51,281 –> 00:24:52,241
It’s not part of it.
661
00:24:52,241 –> 00:24:53,281
It’s so exhausting.
662
00:24:53,601 –> 00:24:55,441
It is a guy that lived through this.
663
00:24:55,681 –> 00:24:56,961
We got some of this.
664
00:24:57,761 –> 00:24:59,841
It was 2015.
665
00:25:01,201 –> 00:25:01,921
Guy comes by.
666
00:25:01,921 –> 00:25:02,961
He’s been robbing,
667
00:25:02,961 –> 00:25:04,241
breaking into hotel rooms,
668
00:25:04,241 –> 00:25:04,641
everything.
669
00:25:04,641 –> 00:25:10,961
The police are looking for him and he comes and pickpocket
670
00:25:11,041 –> 00:25:13,121
mugged, whatever you want to do,
671
00:25:13,201 –> 00:25:14,081
unarmed robbery.
672
00:25:15,961 –> 00:25:18,321
Grabs a cell phone off of the owner of American Coney
673
00:25:18,321 –> 00:25:19,121
Island Grace.
674
00:25:19,601 –> 00:25:21,441
My name gets called it.
675
00:25:21,441 –> 00:25:21,921
By the way,
676
00:25:21,921 –> 00:25:23,721
if you’re listening to this and you want to see the
677
00:25:23,721 –> 00:25:26,841
video, you want to see the pieces we’re doing and
678
00:25:26,841 –> 00:25:27,601
not listen,
679
00:25:27,761 –> 00:25:30,801
you can go to nobsnewshour.com.
680
00:25:30,801 –> 00:25:31,681
We’re on YouTube.
681
00:25:31,921 –> 00:25:33,361
Charlie Leduff on X,
682
00:25:33,681 –> 00:25:35,601
the enjoyer.com.
683
00:25:36,321 –> 00:25:37,241
It’s they’re worth looking at.
684
00:25:37,241 –> 00:25:38,961
The video available on Spotify as well.
685
00:25:39,121 –> 00:25:40,001
Oh, OK, there you go.
686
00:25:40,801 –> 00:25:42,641
So my name gets called.
687
00:25:44,121 –> 00:25:46,481
And I look up and there he goes and I chase him.
688
00:25:46,561 –> 00:25:47,601
I just want the phone back.
689
00:25:47,681 –> 00:25:48,481
He doesn’t run.
690
00:25:48,881 –> 00:25:53,641
He turns around and he’s trying to take me out.
691
00:25:54,481 –> 00:25:56,561
So I take his legs out.
692
00:25:56,561 –> 00:25:59,161
I do a double leg takedown in the wrestling terminology.
693
00:25:59,161 –> 00:26:00,801
Is that after you threw your coffee at him?
694
00:26:02,841 –> 00:26:03,641
Yeah, I threw the coffee.
695
00:26:04,481 –> 00:26:06,241
Well, that’s why I threw the coffee when he turned
696
00:26:06,641 –> 00:26:07,121
I’m like, oh,
697
00:26:07,201 –> 00:26:07,921
the fuck,
698
00:26:08,001 –> 00:26:08,521
Oh my God,
699
00:26:09,681 –> 00:26:10,401
And now, you know,
700
00:26:10,401 –> 00:26:11,281
he’s talking to shit,
701
00:26:11,521 –> 00:26:12,401
talking to shit.
702
00:26:13,081 –> 00:26:15,681
And I got my slippery boots on and I go down.
703
00:26:16,481 –> 00:26:17,161
Right up, right up.
704
00:26:17,361 –> 00:26:18,481
OK, now I got his legs.
705
00:26:19,441 –> 00:26:20,321
Take him down.
706
00:26:20,681 –> 00:26:21,681
I’m on top of him.
707
00:26:22,161 –> 00:26:23,761
I try my legs and his legs.
708
00:26:24,161 –> 00:26:27,681
I give him choke hold when it’s not a choke hold.
709
00:26:27,681 –> 00:26:29,561
It’s not called a choke hold.
710
00:26:29,561 –> 00:26:29,961
What is it?
711
00:26:30,001 –> 00:26:32,321
You had arm your headlock.
712
00:26:32,481 –> 00:26:36,081
Yeah, reverse and and an arm bar because it’s not in
713
00:26:36,081 –> 00:26:36,441
wrestling.
714
00:26:36,441 –> 00:26:36,801
You can’t.
715
00:26:37,041 –> 00:26:38,241
You can’t do a choke hold.
716
00:26:38,561 –> 00:26:39,041
You’re treating.
717
00:26:39,041 –> 00:26:40,441
What was the street name for it,
718
00:26:44,161 –> 00:26:44,841
You can’t.
719
00:26:44,841 –> 00:26:46,561
You can’t beat a guy that knows how to grapple.
720
00:26:46,961 –> 00:26:47,681
So I’m on.
721
00:26:47,881 –> 00:26:48,881
He came after me.
722
00:26:49,361 –> 00:26:51,361
He committed a lot of crimes.
723
00:26:52,001 –> 00:26:53,041
He came after me.
724
00:26:53,361 –> 00:26:54,161
I took him down.
725
00:26:54,241 –> 00:26:56,561
I’m holding him down 20 minutes for police to come.
726
00:26:58,241 –> 00:26:59,681
You know what he said to me when I was in town?
727
00:26:59,721 –> 00:27:02,241
I’m going to fucking kill you.
728
00:27:03,201 –> 00:27:05,201
So I’m supposed to let him go.
729
00:27:05,201 –> 00:27:06,401
I’m going to let.
730
00:27:06,481 –> 00:27:07,121
I’m going to kill you.
731
00:27:07,441 –> 00:27:08,721
Much bigger dude than me.
732
00:27:09,121 –> 00:27:10,361
I don’t need a guy.
733
00:27:10,361 –> 00:27:13,521
I don’t know if he knows who I am,
734
00:27:14,161 –> 00:27:18,401
but but the guy’s easily 40 to 50 lbs heavier than
735
00:27:18,561 –> 00:27:19,361
He’s a young dude,
736
00:27:19,361 –> 00:27:20,281
19 years old.
737
00:27:20,881 –> 00:27:22,441
You had a lot of people that kind of come,
738
00:27:22,641 –> 00:27:22,841
you know,
739
00:27:22,841 –> 00:27:25,041
people were everybody was converging to try to and
740
00:27:25,441 –> 00:27:27,681
see people running from across the street and the
741
00:27:27,681 –> 00:27:28,881
guy on the bike stopped.
742
00:27:29,321 –> 00:27:31,041
I mean, that’s unusual to have a look.
743
00:27:31,281 –> 00:27:31,841
Yeah, well,
744
00:27:31,841 –> 00:27:32,721
nobody was OK.
745
00:27:32,721 –> 00:27:33,601
So what must now,
746
00:27:33,681 –> 00:27:36,081
were you thinking at any point in time that your actions
747
00:27:36,081 –> 00:27:38,001
right there could lead to a death?
748
00:27:39,441 –> 00:27:42,401
Yeah, you were just trying just to kill you.
749
00:27:42,681 –> 00:27:44,081
And what did how did you respond to that,
750
00:27:45,121 –> 00:27:46,281
I said something to him.
751
00:27:46,281 –> 00:27:48,281
I mean, did you did you do something different?
752
00:27:48,281 –> 00:27:49,521
I think I I said to him,
753
00:27:49,521 –> 00:27:50,121
I told him my,
754
00:27:50,121 –> 00:27:52,401
I said the name’s Charlie the Duff.
755
00:27:52,961 –> 00:27:54,401
Remember it,
756
00:27:55,121 –> 00:27:55,801
Remember that.
757
00:27:56,401 –> 00:27:58,481
So this guy,
758
00:27:58,881 –> 00:28:00,961
oh, huge outburst in the court,
759
00:28:01,241 –> 00:28:02,001
You know, fuck you,
760
00:28:02,041 –> 00:28:03,041
N bomb to me,
761
00:28:03,361 –> 00:28:04,121
You know, he stands up.
762
00:28:04,121 –> 00:28:05,001
Fuck you, N bomb.
763
00:28:05,841 –> 00:28:06,361
They give him,
764
00:28:07,441 –> 00:28:07,681
you know.
765
00:28:08,961 –> 00:28:14,081
3 to 15 Three to 15 for a cell phone outside the court.
766
00:28:14,641 –> 00:28:19,761
His old man lover said he’s violent.
767
00:28:20,401 –> 00:28:21,361
He sometimes hit me,
768
00:28:21,361 –> 00:28:22,961
but you don’t understand,
769
00:28:22,961 –> 00:28:23,281
you know,
770
00:28:23,281 –> 00:28:25,521
the way his problems growing up.
771
00:28:25,521 –> 00:28:25,881
And I’m like,
772
00:28:26,561 –> 00:28:27,081
be careful,
773
00:28:27,081 –> 00:28:27,561
my friend.
774
00:28:28,081 –> 00:28:31,241
And this is almost 10 years later.
775
00:28:31,241 –> 00:28:33,601
He’s still in prison for a cell phone.
776
00:28:33,601 –> 00:28:34,961
So what does that tell you?
777
00:28:36,161 –> 00:28:37,601
About the level of this guy.
778
00:28:37,601 –> 00:28:39,441
Now, what do you want me to do,
779
00:28:40,841 –> 00:28:43,681
Do you want a guy to come up and abuse you,
780
00:28:43,681 –> 00:28:45,161
rob you, steal from you,
781
00:28:45,281 –> 00:28:47,521
hit you, break into your stuff,
782
00:28:47,841 –> 00:28:48,641
beat you up?
783
00:28:49,121 –> 00:28:51,201
Or do you want me to try?
784
00:28:51,761 –> 00:28:54,161
Do we just let people walk around doing this?
785
00:28:54,241 –> 00:28:56,921
Because eventually people don’t do it when they think
786
00:28:56,921 –> 00:28:57,841
there’s a consequence.
787
00:28:58,441 –> 00:28:59,681
And if there’s no consequence,
788
00:28:59,841 –> 00:29:00,561
we’re lost.
789
00:29:01,001 –> 00:29:03,761
And we also talk a lot about when people see other
790
00:29:03,761 –> 00:29:04,521
people in need,
791
00:29:04,521 –> 00:29:06,321
whether it’s a crime or something,
792
00:29:06,321 –> 00:29:07,441
and people turning their heads.
793
00:29:07,441 –> 00:29:08,481
You talked about that a little bit,
794
00:29:08,561 –> 00:29:09,841
even on New York subway,
795
00:29:10,081 –> 00:29:11,041
if there’s something going on,
796
00:29:11,041 –> 00:29:12,401
everybody kind of turns their back.
797
00:29:12,401 –> 00:29:13,281
So, I mean,
798
00:29:13,281 –> 00:29:14,321
are we the keeper?
799
00:29:14,321 –> 00:29:15,521
Are we our brother’s keeper?
800
00:29:15,921 –> 00:29:17,361
Well, answer it then,
801
00:29:17,521 –> 00:29:19,241
because you could see I’m exercised about it.
802
00:29:19,321 –> 00:29:20,641
I’m not asking a question.
803
00:29:20,961 –> 00:29:22,081
I want an answer from you.
804
00:29:22,241 –> 00:29:23,201
What do you do?
805
00:29:23,401 –> 00:29:23,841
What do you do?
806
00:29:23,841 –> 00:29:24,881
What do you think of this?
807
00:29:25,601 –> 00:29:27,761
This Daniel Penny or what I what do you think?
808
00:29:27,921 –> 00:29:30,081
I mean what do you think that’s a that’s a pretty large
809
00:29:30,881 –> 00:29:31,441
narrow it down.
810
00:29:31,441 –> 00:29:33,121
What do I think about it in what terms like?
811
00:29:33,841 –> 00:29:34,841
Did he do the right thing?
812
00:29:35,161 –> 00:29:35,721
Well, I mean,
813
00:29:35,721 –> 00:29:37,921
that’s relative whether or not he did the right thing.
814
00:29:37,921 –> 00:29:38,921
Hold on, hold on,
815
00:29:39,401 –> 00:29:40,161
That’s relative.
816
00:29:40,681 –> 00:29:41,801
No, I’m not dodging it,
817
00:29:41,801 –> 00:29:43,481
Charlie, because if in fact you’re.
818
00:29:44,921 –> 00:29:46,441
Yeah, but I want an answer.
819
00:29:46,521 –> 00:29:47,601
That is my answer.
820
00:29:48,081 –> 00:29:48,921
You got to listen though,
821
00:29:49,161 –> 00:29:49,961
because if this,
822
00:29:49,961 –> 00:29:50,841
if you’re on,
823
00:29:50,841 –> 00:29:52,121
if you’re in a situation,
824
00:29:52,121 –> 00:29:54,361
you’re responding to that situation at that time.
825
00:29:54,921 –> 00:29:57,001
And so this guy is posing a threat.
826
00:29:57,001 –> 00:29:58,441
We don’t know what’s going on.
827
00:29:58,441 –> 00:29:59,721
We don’t know what type of,
828
00:30:00,281 –> 00:30:00,441
you know,
829
00:30:00,441 –> 00:30:02,521
do do people on the train know that he’s this known
830
00:30:02,521 –> 00:30:03,401
person or whatever.
831
00:30:03,401 –> 00:30:05,161
So did he respond accordingly?
832
00:30:06,121 –> 00:30:07,241
Looking back on it,
833
00:30:07,241 –> 00:30:09,401
is there something that he could have done differently
834
00:30:09,401 –> 00:30:12,201
to restrain him and not kill him?
835
00:30:12,961 –> 00:30:13,481
I don’t know.
836
00:30:13,921 –> 00:30:15,401
So many variables in that.
837
00:30:15,401 –> 00:30:16,841
Well, there are.
838
00:30:17,321 –> 00:30:18,561
That’s not the question.
839
00:30:18,601 –> 00:30:19,561
But that’s my answer.
840
00:30:19,881 –> 00:30:21,201
Yeah, but you’re dodging it.
841
00:30:21,241 –> 00:30:21,721
No, I’m not.
842
00:30:22,681 –> 00:30:24,201
What am I dodging?
843
00:30:24,921 –> 00:30:25,361
I’m not a judge.
844
00:30:26,041 –> 00:30:26,921
Should he have done that?
845
00:30:28,121 –> 00:30:29,241
Should he have intervened?
846
00:30:31,801 –> 00:30:33,201
And when shit goes bad,
847
00:30:33,241 –> 00:30:33,921
like, you’re right.
848
00:30:33,921 –> 00:30:35,481
I mean, is there more he could have done?
849
00:30:36,001 –> 00:30:37,001
But that’s what I’m saying.
850
00:30:37,001 –> 00:30:38,401
There are two variables in that.
851
00:30:38,401 –> 00:30:40,361
But did he respond accordingly?
852
00:30:40,361 –> 00:30:43,681
Did should he have intervened when you’ve got the livelihood
853
00:30:43,681 –> 00:30:45,641
of these people around in jeopardy?
854
00:30:45,721 –> 00:30:47,401
They said it was they were afraid for their lives.
855
00:30:47,401 –> 00:30:48,041
That’s what I’m saying.
856
00:30:48,041 –> 00:30:49,881
So should somebody have done something?
857
00:30:50,601 –> 00:30:52,601
And he was also helped by two other men.
858
00:30:52,681 –> 00:30:53,961
OK, so one white man,
859
00:30:54,121 –> 00:30:56,001
one Latin man and one black man.
860
00:30:56,041 –> 00:30:57,561
But see, that’s a relevant though.
861
00:30:57,641 –> 00:30:58,121
I mean, no,
862
00:30:58,161 –> 00:31:00,521
it’s totally relevant because this was this was about
863
00:31:01,081 –> 00:31:02,281
It’s that’s wait,
864
00:31:02,281 –> 00:31:02,761
wait, wait,
865
00:31:02,761 –> 00:31:04,121
wait, please,
866
00:31:04,601 –> 00:31:06,361
please not mumble over the point.
867
00:31:07,401 –> 00:31:11,481
This was the talk about vigilante justice by a white
868
00:31:12,441 –> 00:31:15,801
And the white man was protecting women of color,
869
00:31:15,801 –> 00:31:16,921
children of color.
870
00:31:17,081 –> 00:31:20,681
It was also two other men of color who recognized this.
871
00:31:21,201 –> 00:31:24,441
Are we supposed to be victim?
872
00:31:24,561 –> 00:31:26,081
I’m not calling for vigilantism.
873
00:31:26,201 –> 00:31:27,641
This Luigi motherfucker.
874
00:31:28,041 –> 00:31:29,801
I wouldn’t even call it vigilantism.
875
00:31:29,801 –> 00:31:32,281
He wasn’t going around looking to stop crime.
876
00:31:32,281 –> 00:31:34,601
I mean, crime came to him and Daniel Penny stopped.
877
00:31:34,681 –> 00:31:35,641
Was it a crime?
878
00:31:36,401 –> 00:31:38,601
Well, no, a crime.
879
00:31:40,801 –> 00:31:43,881
That’s what I’m saying.
880
00:31:44,601 –> 00:31:46,161
You know, when when you first brought it up,
881
00:31:46,201 –> 00:31:47,961
I said there’s always the intersection,
882
00:31:48,121 –> 00:31:48,361
you know,
883
00:31:48,361 –> 00:31:49,121
there’s politics,
884
00:31:49,121 –> 00:31:51,241
there are people talking about brags and you know,
885
00:31:51,721 –> 00:31:53,081
it’s it’s politics,
886
00:31:53,081 –> 00:31:54,041
it’s it’s race,
887
00:31:54,041 –> 00:31:54,761
it’s economics.
888
00:31:54,761 –> 00:31:56,201
Those factors are always,
889
00:31:56,521 –> 00:31:58,521
they come into play whether or not they should,
890
00:31:58,521 –> 00:31:59,481
didn’t think about that.
891
00:31:59,561 –> 00:32:00,361
Daniel Penny.
892
00:32:00,361 –> 00:32:03,241
He thought he saw a guy come on who was bothering people
893
00:32:03,281 –> 00:32:05,721
and saying threatening that someone is going to die.
894
00:32:05,801 –> 00:32:06,361
And he just,
895
00:32:06,361 –> 00:32:09,081
he didn’t think if he had it to do all over again.
896
00:32:09,161 –> 00:32:12,521
He did think he handed his cell phone to another passenger.
897
00:32:12,601 –> 00:32:14,481
Yeah, but I mean the bigger ramification.
898
00:32:14,881 –> 00:32:17,801
Of race and how long I’m going to hold and the intent
899
00:32:17,801 –> 00:32:18,881
there was good.
900
00:32:18,881 –> 00:32:21,241
And this thing did like for me on the street there
901
00:32:21,401 –> 00:32:23,561
that was just help.
902
00:32:24,201 –> 00:32:26,681
OK, nothing but right.
903
00:32:26,761 –> 00:32:29,881
And like, but in please,
904
00:32:30,201 –> 00:32:30,601
thank you.
905
00:32:31,801 –> 00:32:32,841
Running after him.
906
00:32:34,241 –> 00:32:35,081
I’m just jogging.
907
00:32:35,081 –> 00:32:35,801
I don’t think this,
908
00:32:36,041 –> 00:32:36,441
you know,
909
00:32:36,441 –> 00:32:37,561
the guy should have just ran,
910
00:32:37,561 –> 00:32:38,521
didn’t turn around.
911
00:32:38,521 –> 00:32:40,281
I’m like, oh fuck.
912
00:32:41,001 –> 00:32:41,961
I don’t want this.
913
00:32:42,281 –> 00:32:43,401
But that’s the part of it,
914
00:32:43,761 –> 00:32:46,041
Once a situation is like that,
915
00:32:46,041 –> 00:32:48,121
nobody’s everybody’s responding.
916
00:32:48,201 –> 00:32:48,681
They’re not.
917
00:32:48,681 –> 00:32:52,161
They’re not going through a mental checklist of who,
918
00:32:52,161 –> 00:32:52,761
what, how,
919
00:32:53,041 –> 00:32:55,401
why they’re responding like you,
920
00:32:55,401 –> 00:32:57,681
like so many people do to that situation.
921
00:32:57,681 –> 00:32:58,441
No, my dear friend,
922
00:32:58,441 –> 00:32:59,321
you wouldn’t know.
923
00:32:59,801 –> 00:33:00,681
You wouldn’t know.
924
00:33:00,681 –> 00:33:02,041
Most people don’t,
925
00:33:03,561 –> 00:33:06,441
The fucking people on the podcast talking don’t.
926
00:33:07,041 –> 00:33:10,681
Most people in life don’t stop and help somebody who’s
927
00:33:10,681 –> 00:33:14,041
bleeding or who’s passed out.
928
00:33:14,041 –> 00:33:16,281
They they look and they take pictures.
929
00:33:16,841 –> 00:33:18,841
Do you want the rest of us to go away?
930
00:33:19,001 –> 00:33:20,441
Because believe me,
931
00:33:20,681 –> 00:33:22,841
it’s like Penny said,
932
00:33:23,001 –> 00:33:24,441
it’s a scary thing.
933
00:33:24,921 –> 00:33:25,721
Holy fuck,
934
00:33:25,721 –> 00:33:26,601
I don’t want this.
935
00:33:28,361 –> 00:33:28,681
Yeah, I mean,
936
00:33:28,681 –> 00:33:29,681
it’s it’s an adrenaline,
937
00:33:29,681 –> 00:33:30,761
adrenaline drive.
938
00:33:30,761 –> 00:33:31,601
And and again,
939
00:33:31,601 –> 00:33:32,441
I mean this guy.
940
00:33:33,321 –> 00:33:35,001
They’re they’re whatever.
941
00:33:35,801 –> 00:33:36,561
I know I’m just saying,
942
00:33:36,561 –> 00:33:37,001
but I mean,
943
00:33:37,161 –> 00:33:38,121
he’s a Marine.
944
00:33:38,121 –> 00:33:40,521
So I mean you got to take that into consideration.
945
00:33:40,521 –> 00:33:43,081
You know, in terms of just like an off-duty police
946
00:33:43,081 –> 00:33:46,281
officer, they may respond differently than just the
947
00:33:46,281 –> 00:33:48,441
average person because they feel like they are,
948
00:33:48,521 –> 00:33:50,681
they can and that they’re capable and that they somehow
949
00:33:51,241 –> 00:33:53,321
Well, they’re required to and they took the oath.
950
00:33:53,361 –> 00:33:54,441
And once you’re a Marine,
951
00:33:54,441 –> 00:33:58,281
you’re expected to behave like that in society.
952
00:33:58,281 –> 00:33:59,041
Same with the cop,
953
00:33:59,041 –> 00:34:02,281
but it’s not like a cop or.
954
00:34:03,161 –> 00:34:06,521
A Marine or an average citizen isn’t scared.
955
00:34:07,161 –> 00:34:10,281
It’s just I couldn’t.
956
00:34:10,281 –> 00:34:15,121
I couldn’t see my friend or you or somebody be threatened
957
00:34:15,881 –> 00:34:21,001
Sometimes you just you have to intervene and it’s so
958
00:34:21,001 –> 00:34:22,281
fucking crazy.
959
00:34:22,761 –> 00:34:24,121
You see a need and you respond.
960
00:34:24,281 –> 00:34:26,361
That demand becomes a villain,
961
00:34:26,961 –> 00:34:28,441
which and what I think,
962
00:34:28,681 –> 00:34:29,321
and again,
963
00:34:33,001 –> 00:34:34,001
I couldn’t imagine.
964
00:34:34,001 –> 00:34:34,761
I couldn’t imagine.
965
00:34:35,001 –> 00:34:37,001
You know, he didn’t want to kill the guy.
966
00:34:37,041 –> 00:34:39,961
And the the even if the guy’s a schizophrenic,
967
00:34:39,961 –> 00:34:41,401
he didn’t want to die.
968
00:34:41,721 –> 00:34:44,081
You know, I heard somebody say too that if in fact
969
00:34:44,121 –> 00:34:47,801
this guy was known to have these issues and he was
970
00:34:47,881 –> 00:34:51,561
as well known around the New York area,
971
00:34:51,561 –> 00:34:53,161
why was it where,
972
00:34:53,161 –> 00:34:53,361
you know,
973
00:34:53,361 –> 00:34:55,281
all these people that are concerned and and certainly
974
00:34:55,281 –> 00:34:56,841
condolences somebody loves him,
975
00:34:56,841 –> 00:34:58,041
he’s somebody’s family member.
976
00:34:58,361 –> 00:35:02,321
But why wasn’t there some form of intervention or outreach?
977
00:35:02,401 –> 00:35:05,561
To try to help him prior to this is where the system
978
00:35:06,281 –> 00:35:11,241
He’s top 50 be on the lookout violent homeless guys
979
00:35:11,241 –> 00:35:12,121
in the city.
980
00:35:12,121 –> 00:35:15,001
They they put him in the mental institution,
981
00:35:15,641 –> 00:35:16,441
Bellevue.
982
00:35:18,521 –> 00:35:20,921
His mother was murdered when he was young and stuffed
983
00:35:20,921 –> 00:35:21,721
in a suitcase.
984
00:35:21,721 –> 00:35:22,361
His father,
985
00:35:22,441 –> 00:35:22,961
his father,
986
00:35:23,001 –> 00:35:24,121
who’s all over the news now,
987
00:35:24,361 –> 00:35:29,401
wasn’t involved when I’m looking at $7 billion to
988
00:35:30,561 –> 00:35:32,961
People that shouldn’t be in this country up in the
989
00:35:33,161 –> 00:35:34,361
Roosevelt Hotel,
990
00:35:34,521 –> 00:35:37,401
getting their laundry done and culturally appropriate
991
00:35:38,201 –> 00:35:41,321
And you have hurting,
992
00:35:41,481 –> 00:35:43,481
sick men,
993
00:35:43,721 –> 00:35:46,361
violent men like just wandering around and you know
994
00:35:47,761 –> 00:35:48,881
Where’s the money supposed?
995
00:35:48,921 –> 00:35:50,281
That’s where the money supposed to go.
996
00:35:50,961 –> 00:35:52,281
When we call it the system,
997
00:35:52,921 –> 00:35:54,761
the system is supposed to be able to take care of
998
00:35:55,521 –> 00:35:57,641
That you and I can’t because it leads to what happened
999
00:35:57,641 –> 00:35:58,201
on the subway.
1000
00:35:58,441 –> 00:36:00,041
The system was supposed to intervene.
1001
00:36:00,121 –> 00:36:01,321
So that doesn’t happen.
1002
00:36:01,521 –> 00:36:02,361
And it failed.
1003
00:36:02,681 –> 00:36:06,041
And charges should have never been brought.
1004
00:36:07,321 –> 00:36:10,081
But there’s something very famous that happened in
1005
00:36:10,081 –> 00:36:10,481
New York.
1006
00:36:10,481 –> 00:36:11,561
And if you ever lived in New York,
1007
00:36:11,561 –> 00:36:12,161
you know about it.
1008
00:36:12,161 –> 00:36:14,561
And it was a woman named a bartender.
1009
00:36:14,561 –> 00:36:16,361
She’s 28 years old in 1964,
1010
00:36:16,601 –> 00:36:17,561
Kitty Genovese.
1011
00:36:18,041 –> 00:36:19,321
She goes home to Kew Gardens,
1012
00:36:19,321 –> 00:36:21,241
Queens, where my office used to be.
1013
00:36:22,521 –> 00:36:23,481
She’s raped.
1014
00:36:24,321 –> 00:36:27,801
And she stabbed to death and she’s screaming.
1015
00:36:29,401 –> 00:36:30,921
And nobody intervened.
1016
00:36:31,561 –> 00:36:32,441
Nobody intervened.
1017
00:36:32,761 –> 00:36:36,921
And nobody called the cops until they realized she
1018
00:36:36,921 –> 00:36:37,401
was dead.
1019
00:36:37,641 –> 00:36:41,561
This was a Now if you Google Kitty Genovese,
1020
00:36:41,561 –> 00:36:43,641
you’ll read through Wikipedia.
1021
00:36:44,361 –> 00:36:47,841
It wasn’t as monstrous the the people that turned away
1022
00:36:47,841 –> 00:36:49,761
as as once was believed,
1023
00:36:49,961 –> 00:36:52,041
but the general facts remain.
1024
00:36:52,561 –> 00:36:54,601
You heard you didn’t do anything.
1025
00:36:54,841 –> 00:36:59,401
It’s a great shame on New on New York.
1026
00:36:59,401 –> 00:37:04,201
It’s a great shame because the city is so alienating.
1027
00:37:04,201 –> 00:37:05,241
It’s not isolating.
1028
00:37:05,401 –> 00:37:06,761
LA is isolating,
1029
00:37:07,961 –> 00:37:11,161
and New York is the exact opposite.
1030
00:37:11,241 –> 00:37:13,881
It’s everybody’s on you and you pretend they’re not
1031
00:37:14,361 –> 00:37:15,481
And when you turn away,
1032
00:37:18,041 –> 00:37:19,481
you’re not a society anymore.
1033
00:37:20,481 –> 00:37:22,761
But can’t you say that almost about everything,
1034
00:37:22,761 –> 00:37:24,201
Charlie, is that we don’t.
1035
00:37:24,441 –> 00:37:26,761
We hear, we see people in need,
1036
00:37:26,761 –> 00:37:27,801
we see people in pain.
1037
00:37:27,801 –> 00:37:28,361
You talked about,
1038
00:37:28,681 –> 00:37:28,881
you know,
1039
00:37:28,881 –> 00:37:31,641
what’s going on in Lansing and nobody responds until
1040
00:37:31,641 –> 00:37:32,601
it’s sometimes too late.
1041
00:37:33,321 –> 00:37:36,121
I mean, that becomes almost like the order of the day.
1042
00:37:36,121 –> 00:37:37,801
See, it’s all the stuff stacking up,
1043
00:37:39,961 –> 00:37:42,921
The elected officials not doing the things for the
1044
00:37:42,921 –> 00:37:44,201
people who elected them,
1045
00:37:44,841 –> 00:37:46,361
doing favors for the very.
1046
00:37:47,041 –> 00:37:47,881
Well-oiled,
1047
00:37:48,041 –> 00:37:50,161
taking fucking peanuts for it.
1048
00:37:50,161 –> 00:37:52,281
Looking for a job after the fact.
1049
00:37:52,561 –> 00:37:54,361
When we’re dying out here,
1050
00:37:54,361 –> 00:37:55,641
the schools are awful.
1051
00:37:55,881 –> 00:37:57,001
Kids aren’t learning.
1052
00:37:57,401 –> 00:37:58,841
You’re lying about the crime.
1053
00:37:59,001 –> 00:38:01,921
And then we all turn away from each other.
1054
00:38:02,801 –> 00:38:05,641
And there’s no no signal how to come back from it.
1055
00:38:05,801 –> 00:38:07,881
So, you know,
1056
00:38:10,681 –> 00:38:11,401
we can do better.
1057
00:38:13,241 –> 00:38:13,961
We can do better.
1058
00:38:17,241 –> 00:38:20,681
I think maybe we’re starting to.
1059
00:38:21,721 –> 00:38:23,081
I think people have woken up.
1060
00:38:24,281 –> 00:38:25,841
Yeah, it’s not political.
1061
00:38:25,841 –> 00:38:27,401
Yeah, it shouldn’t be political,
1062
00:38:27,801 –> 00:38:29,721
It should be about human nature.
1063
00:38:30,041 –> 00:38:30,841
And I always say,
1064
00:38:30,841 –> 00:38:32,241
see a need and respond,
1065
00:38:32,721 –> 00:38:33,241
whatever.
1066
00:38:33,241 –> 00:38:34,201
It can be small,
1067
00:38:34,441 –> 00:38:35,401
it can be significant,
1068
00:38:35,401 –> 00:38:38,281
it can be within your space and area of comfort.
1069
00:38:38,761 –> 00:38:40,281
But we are all here together.
1070
00:38:40,441 –> 00:38:41,321
I mean, we really are.
1071
00:38:41,521 –> 00:38:42,521
And it’s not about,
1072
00:38:42,521 –> 00:38:43,961
well, I don’t know if I like that person.
1073
00:38:44,201 –> 00:38:46,241
I mean, because you could be on the other side of that
1074
00:38:46,241 –> 00:38:46,841
equation.
1075
00:38:47,161 –> 00:38:48,201
That’s what people forget.
1076
00:38:48,201 –> 00:38:49,481
At some point you’re the,
1077
00:38:49,801 –> 00:38:50,121
you know,
1078
00:38:50,121 –> 00:38:51,401
you’re on the other side of it.
1079
00:38:52,041 –> 00:38:53,041
And people want help then.
1080
00:38:53,041 –> 00:38:55,241
And then they want people to pay attention to your
1081
00:38:55,961 –> 00:38:57,761
Well, did you pay attention to those issues when they
1082
00:38:57,761 –> 00:38:59,081
were impacting somebody else?
1083
00:39:00,361 –> 00:39:02,681
Well, if you’re in need and you need a Kony kit,
1084
00:39:05,481 –> 00:39:06,001
wait, there’s a.
1085
00:39:08,521 –> 00:39:09,401
Comes with a prayer.
1086
00:39:11,481 –> 00:39:11,881
All right,
1087
00:39:12,921 –> 00:39:15,241
a word from our dear sponsor.
1088
00:39:15,241 –> 00:39:16,681
And then on the other side of this,
1089
00:39:18,041 –> 00:39:18,801
Woody Woodriff,
1090
00:39:18,801 –> 00:39:22,401
Fox 2 Sports Anchor giving us the Lions layout back
1091
00:39:22,401 –> 00:39:22,921
after this.
1092
00:39:31,827 –> 00:39:33,467
Dude, with everything!
1093
00:39:33,787 –> 00:39:35,387
Let’s have your cheese fries to go!
1094
00:39:35,747 –> 00:39:36,667
Ready, set,
1095
00:39:37,547 –> 00:39:38,667
go, Red, go!
1096
00:39:40,027 –> 00:39:42,227
Detroit might not make it to the championships,
1097
00:39:42,347 –> 00:39:44,547
but you can have a little bit of Detroit at your next
1098
00:39:44,547 –> 00:39:45,707
championship party.
1099
00:39:46,187 –> 00:39:47,427
American Coney Island,
1100
00:39:47,427 –> 00:39:49,467

1101
00:39:49,787 –> 00:39:51,467

That includes Alaska and Hawaii.
1104
00:39:55,947 –> 00:39:57,587
Americanconeyisland.com.
1105
00:39:58,267 –> 00:39:58,747
The first,
1106
00:39:59,067 –> 00:39:59,747
the best,
1107
00:40:00,187 –> 00:40:01,547
and better than all the rest.
1108
00:40:01,947 –> 00:40:05,147
And they can’t fly either!
1109
00:40:08,507 –> 00:40:09,547
Yeah, baby,
1110
00:40:09,587 –> 00:40:10,587
I’m going to Vegas!
1111
00:40:10,587 –> 00:40:12,347
They got a Coney store there too,
1112
00:40:12,347 –> 00:40:13,347
yeah! Man,
1113
00:40:24,387 –> 00:40:25,547
that fucker’s a ham.
1114
00:40:27,947 –> 00:40:28,427
So anyway,
1115
00:40:28,427 –> 00:40:29,867
Speaking of subways,
1116
00:40:30,507 –> 00:40:31,547
New York City,
1117
00:40:33,867 –> 00:40:37,987
did you see Eli Manning in the in the Manning cast?
1118
00:40:37,987 –> 00:40:39,707
Yeah, I watch the Manning cast every week.
1119
00:40:39,707 –> 00:40:40,427
Yeah, I love it.
1120
00:40:40,427 –> 00:40:41,627
It’s my favorite show on TV.
1121
00:40:41,627 –> 00:40:42,427
Monday Night Football.
1122
00:40:42,427 –> 00:40:42,907
It really is.
1123
00:40:42,907 –> 00:40:43,507
Yeah, yeah,
1124
00:40:43,507 –> 00:40:44,027
I love it.
1125
00:40:44,027 –> 00:40:45,907
So but but he did say because we were talking about
1126
00:40:45,907 –> 00:40:48,627
Daniel Penny and how dangerous the subways are in
1127
00:40:48,627 –> 00:40:49,147
New York.
1128
00:40:49,147 –> 00:40:50,747
And I thought it was really interesting because Eli
1129
00:40:50,747 –> 00:40:53,227
gets roasted last week for posting a picture.
1130
00:40:54,387 –> 00:40:55,067
And he captioned it.
1131
00:40:55,067 –> 00:40:56,747
First time on the subway in New York,
1132
00:40:57,427 –> 00:40:58,187
which, you know,
1133
00:40:58,187 –> 00:41:00,987
he played for the Giants for like 12 years.
1134
00:41:00,987 –> 00:41:02,067
Yeah, yeah.
1135
00:41:02,067 –> 00:41:02,667
And he went,
1136
00:41:03,187 –> 00:41:04,267
never been on a subway.
1137
00:41:04,267 –> 00:41:05,507
No, it’s it’s ridiculous.
1138
00:41:05,507 –> 00:41:07,787
So he was getting roasted online and they addressed
1139
00:41:07,787 –> 00:41:09,267
it, which I thought this was pretty interesting.
1140
00:41:09,307 –> 00:41:11,027
Eli, this was very shocking to me.
1141
00:41:11,027 –> 00:41:12,587
I mean, I thought you were a man of the people.
1142
00:41:12,827 –> 00:41:14,507
You’ve lived there since 2004.
1143
00:41:14,507 –> 00:41:15,947
First time riding the subway.
1144
00:41:17,067 –> 00:41:18,107
I am a man of the people.
1145
00:41:18,107 –> 00:41:19,307
I I live in New Jersey.
1146
00:41:19,307 –> 00:41:20,667
I’m not in the city that often.
1147
00:41:20,667 –> 00:41:22,027
I was in the city last week.
1148
00:41:22,027 –> 00:41:23,867
I had to get from Uptown to downtown.
1149
00:41:23,867 –> 00:41:24,947
I I hopped on the subway.
1150
00:41:24,947 –> 00:41:26,267
I’m a man of the people.
1151
00:41:26,827 –> 00:41:29,227
It was a it was a it was in my contract when I was
1152
00:41:29,507 –> 00:41:30,867
I wasn’t allowed to ride the subway.
1153
00:41:30,867 –> 00:41:33,267
I could get like pushed in front of a train.
1154
00:41:33,347 –> 00:41:33,867
Is that right?
1155
00:41:33,987 –> 00:41:34,347
Is that right?
1156
00:41:34,547 –> 00:41:36,427
Kind of like no skiing,
1157
00:41:36,507 –> 00:41:37,227
no skiing,
1158
00:41:37,227 –> 00:41:38,107
no riding the subway,
1159
00:41:38,667 –> 00:41:39,787
no motorcycles,
1160
00:41:39,787 –> 00:41:41,267
no subway in New York.
1161
00:41:41,387 –> 00:41:43,827
That’s that’s that’s you gotta stay safe.
1162
00:41:45,867 –> 00:41:46,267
Interesting.
1163
00:41:46,587 –> 00:41:47,147
Interesting.
1164
00:41:47,147 –> 00:41:49,067
So with great pleasure,
1165
00:41:49,067 –> 00:41:51,387
I want to welcome in Woody Woodriff,
1166
00:41:51,387 –> 00:41:55,667
the anchor for Fox Sports Lions guy.
1167
00:41:55,667 –> 00:41:56,067
Hey, Woody,
1168
00:41:56,067 –> 00:41:56,427
how you doing,
1169
00:41:57,307 –> 00:41:58,707
I am fantastic,
1170
00:41:59,267 –> 00:41:59,787
And you know what?
1171
00:41:59,787 –> 00:42:03,067
I could see Eli Manning having that clause in his contract
1172
00:42:03,067 –> 00:42:05,627
where he could not get close to the trains or anything
1173
00:42:05,627 –> 00:42:07,987
like that because his career in New York was so bad,
1174
00:42:08,027 –> 00:42:09,947
someone would have pushed him in front of a train.
1175
00:42:11,747 –> 00:42:12,667
Dude, he got two.
1176
00:42:12,667 –> 00:42:13,787
He got two rings,
1177
00:42:13,947 –> 00:42:14,667
What are you talking about?
1178
00:42:14,667 –> 00:42:16,347
That guy’s boarded Line Hall of Fame.
1179
00:42:16,907 –> 00:42:17,947
I understand that.
1180
00:42:17,947 –> 00:42:18,427
But still,
1181
00:42:18,427 –> 00:42:20,827
if you utter the words Eli Manning in New York,
1182
00:42:20,827 –> 00:42:22,187
you’re still gonna get a oh man,
1183
00:42:24,427 –> 00:42:25,867
which begs the question,
1184
00:42:26,187 –> 00:42:28,427
since you know you’re like the Lion’s insider,
1185
00:42:29,107 –> 00:42:30,987
what’s what’s in those guys contracts?
1186
00:42:30,987 –> 00:42:34,507
Like you can’t ride the people mover or you can’t get
1187
00:42:34,507 –> 00:42:35,347
gas at night.
1188
00:42:35,347 –> 00:42:36,427
What’s in there?
1189
00:42:36,667 –> 00:42:37,307
The caveats,
1190
00:42:37,467 –> 00:42:37,707
you know,
1191
00:42:37,947 –> 00:42:40,507
I don’t know what’s in in some of those contracts,
1192
00:42:40,507 –> 00:42:43,547
but I will say that I remember last year CJ Gardner
1193
00:42:43,547 –> 00:42:45,867
Johnson, he was upset at a lot of the team.
1194
00:42:46,267 –> 00:42:49,227
Because they would not hang out downtown.
1195
00:42:49,307 –> 00:42:51,627
Apparently he said that the guys were scared to go
1196
00:42:51,627 –> 00:42:52,227
downtown.
1197
00:42:52,227 –> 00:42:53,427
And now I don’t,
1198
00:42:53,547 –> 00:42:54,667
I don’t see that at all.
1199
00:42:54,827 –> 00:42:56,187
But that’s what he said.
1200
00:42:56,427 –> 00:42:59,147
And he has now since moved on to the Philadelphia Eagles.
1201
00:42:59,227 –> 00:43:02,467
One of the guys he said who would go downtown was Jameson
1202
00:43:02,467 –> 00:43:02,907
Williams.
1203
00:43:02,907 –> 00:43:05,627
We all know about Jamo in the whole gun issue.
1204
00:43:06,667 –> 00:43:06,987
I’m right.
1205
00:43:07,067 –> 00:43:09,147
I’m a little surprised if they’re concerned about safety
1206
00:43:09,147 –> 00:43:11,027
that they let players carry guns.
1207
00:43:11,027 –> 00:43:13,467
Or is that something the the union fought for?
1208
00:43:14,507 –> 00:43:17,227
You know, I think that might be a union thing because
1209
00:43:17,227 –> 00:43:19,027
it has been true in the past.
1210
00:43:19,027 –> 00:43:21,987
I remember back in the day when they had Kevin Smith
1211
00:43:22,107 –> 00:43:22,987
as a running back,
1212
00:43:23,227 –> 00:43:23,547
you know,
1213
00:43:23,547 –> 00:43:27,867
he carried and was was no issue for anybody.
1214
00:43:27,867 –> 00:43:29,227
So I don’t see,
1215
00:43:29,787 –> 00:43:30,027
you know,
1216
00:43:30,027 –> 00:43:32,707
the league or the team having a problem with guys
1217
00:43:32,707 –> 00:43:33,467
who carry at all.
1218
00:43:33,707 –> 00:43:34,827
I mean, Karen carries,
1219
00:43:34,827 –> 00:43:35,347
so I mean,
1220
00:43:35,347 –> 00:43:37,067
I don’t, I don’t play for the Lions though.
1221
00:43:37,827 –> 00:43:39,107
Yeah, but you know,
1222
00:43:39,107 –> 00:43:41,547
but you’re bigger than the Lions and you know it.
1223
00:43:42,107 –> 00:43:43,147
I will say this though,
1224
00:43:43,147 –> 00:43:45,067
a lot of times when the guys are out,
1225
00:43:45,067 –> 00:43:46,427
they have people with them.
1226
00:43:46,587 –> 00:43:47,147
I mean, you know,
1227
00:43:47,147 –> 00:43:48,467
so it’s not like it’s just,
1228
00:43:48,467 –> 00:43:48,747
you know,
1229
00:43:49,667 –> 00:43:51,147
I mean, you know,
1230
00:43:51,387 –> 00:43:53,627
we, we know that he was out with his brother in that
1231
00:43:53,627 –> 00:43:55,307
incident and all that kind of stuff.
1232
00:43:55,307 –> 00:43:56,947
But I think that when the guys go out,
1233
00:43:56,947 –> 00:43:59,867
they do have some kind of personnel with them.
1234
00:44:00,907 –> 00:44:05,227
Ken was telling me that when the league cleaned up
1235
00:44:05,227 –> 00:44:07,467
the drunk driving issues because now anywhere,
1236
00:44:07,467 –> 00:44:11,387
is this true anywhere worldwide if you’re an NFL player?
1237
00:44:11,867 –> 00:44:14,187
There’s a number you can call and they’ll come get
1238
00:44:14,587 –> 00:44:15,067
Is that true?
1239
00:44:15,147 –> 00:44:15,787
It is true.
1240
00:44:16,027 –> 00:44:16,827
It is true.
1241
00:44:17,387 –> 00:44:18,427
That is so smart.
1242
00:44:19,787 –> 00:44:20,707
Well, it’s the perfect.
1243
00:44:20,707 –> 00:44:21,227
But again,
1244
00:44:21,467 –> 00:44:22,947
guys should have known that on their own.
1245
00:44:22,947 –> 00:44:23,627
Let’s be honest,
1246
00:44:23,627 –> 00:44:26,267
if I’m an NFL player and I want to go out,
1247
00:44:26,307 –> 00:44:26,987
I’m, you know,
1248
00:44:26,987 –> 00:44:28,227
I’ve got a car service.
1249
00:44:28,227 –> 00:44:29,667
I’ve got somebody driving me around.
1250
00:44:29,667 –> 00:44:30,907
I’m not, you know,
1251
00:44:30,907 –> 00:44:31,627
getting in my,
1252
00:44:32,187 –> 00:44:32,427
you know,
1253
00:44:32,427 –> 00:44:33,467
Ford Focus.
1254
00:44:33,707 –> 00:44:35,307
And driving down to the club,
1255
00:44:35,627 –> 00:44:37,227
hanging out and having a couple of drinks and then
1256
00:44:37,227 –> 00:44:37,907
driving home.
1257
00:44:37,907 –> 00:44:38,547
No, I’m having,
1258
00:44:38,587 –> 00:44:38,827
you know,
1259
00:44:38,827 –> 00:44:40,267
Jimmy drive me home,
1260
00:44:40,267 –> 00:44:41,947
who I hired as my driver.
1261
00:44:41,947 –> 00:44:42,667
You know what I’m saying?
1262
00:44:43,427 –> 00:44:44,867
I mean, cause let’s face it,
1263
00:44:44,867 –> 00:44:47,387
what’s the number one program in America?
1264
00:44:47,387 –> 00:44:48,267
Sunday Night Football,
1265
00:44:49,427 –> 00:44:51,947
I mean, these guys are the movie stars now.
1266
00:44:51,947 –> 00:44:52,787
They’re the movie stars,
1267
00:44:53,387 –> 00:44:54,347
They’re bigger than Hollywood.
1268
00:44:54,907 –> 00:44:56,427
So Speaking of which.
1269
00:44:57,467 –> 00:44:58,627
I mean, this town’s buzzing,
1270
00:44:58,907 –> 00:44:59,587
The Lions like,
1271
00:44:59,627 –> 00:44:59,787
you know,
1272
00:44:59,787 –> 00:45:02,187
12 and one 11 game-winning streak.
1273
00:45:02,187 –> 00:45:06,347
It’s the best season they’ve ever had if they can finish
1274
00:45:07,147 –> 00:45:08,867
So I’m asking you,
1275
00:45:09,507 –> 00:45:13,067
I mean, they got 4 rugged games coming,
1276
00:45:13,387 –> 00:45:14,187
They they really do.
1277
00:45:14,187 –> 00:45:15,947
You got Buffalo coming into town,
1278
00:45:16,107 –> 00:45:17,227
then you’ve got.
1279
00:45:17,787 –> 00:45:20,587
Chicago outdoors in Chicago.
1280
00:45:20,827 –> 00:45:23,307
Then you got the Niners fighting for their lives and
1281
00:45:23,307 –> 00:45:27,147
it all might come down to Minnesota coming into town.
1282
00:45:27,387 –> 00:45:28,187
And we got what,
1283
00:45:28,267 –> 00:45:32,427
eight guys on IR on on the D Do we got enough ponies
1284
00:45:32,667 –> 00:45:33,387
to get there?
1285
00:45:34,227 –> 00:45:35,947
Of course we have enough ponies to get there.
1286
00:45:35,947 –> 00:45:37,147
I’m not worried at all.
1287
00:45:37,227 –> 00:45:41,867
I mean, I would have thought that with 1617 guys,
1288
00:45:42,787 –> 00:45:46,187
1617 guys on the injured list last week that they
1289
00:45:46,187 –> 00:45:47,547
would not have stepped up.
1290
00:45:47,547 –> 00:45:48,507
But they did.
1291
00:45:48,747 –> 00:45:49,787
I mean, I can’t.
1292
00:45:49,867 –> 00:45:50,587
Look, I’m gonna,
1293
00:45:50,627 –> 00:45:51,867
I’m gonna turn this around to you,
1294
00:45:52,627 –> 00:45:54,187
What team do they lose to?
1295
00:45:54,667 –> 00:45:55,547
I don’t see it.
1296
00:45:55,627 –> 00:45:57,547
I don’t see them losing to the Bills.
1297
00:45:57,787 –> 00:45:59,067
I don’t see them losing to the Bears.
1298
00:45:59,067 –> 00:46:01,387
I don’t see them losing to the Niners or the Vikings.
1299
00:46:01,387 –> 00:46:02,267
And don’t forget.
1300
00:46:02,587 –> 00:46:04,987
The Vikings still have to play the Packers,
1301
00:46:05,227 –> 00:46:07,147
so there will be a battle there.
1302
00:46:07,147 –> 00:46:08,267
They could lose a little,
1303
00:46:08,787 –> 00:46:11,707
a little bit of momentum there and maybe the Lions,
1304
00:46:12,107 –> 00:46:12,427
you know,
1305
00:46:12,427 –> 00:46:14,347
seal it up before that last game.
1306
00:46:14,347 –> 00:46:14,827
Who knows?
1307
00:46:14,827 –> 00:46:15,067
We’ll see.
1308
00:46:15,067 –> 00:46:15,627
But this is the,
1309
00:46:15,787 –> 00:46:17,067
this is the NFL.
1310
00:46:18,027 –> 00:46:18,867
And I’m just,
1311
00:46:18,867 –> 00:46:19,067
you know,
1312
00:46:19,067 –> 00:46:19,507
look, man,
1313
00:46:19,507 –> 00:46:21,307
I’m 59 going to be 59.
1314
00:46:22,547 –> 00:46:23,027
Happy birthday.
1315
00:46:23,227 –> 00:46:23,627
Thank you.
1316
00:46:23,627 –> 00:46:24,427
Well, it’s in March,
1317
00:46:24,427 –> 00:46:25,947
so OK, well,
1318
00:46:26,147 –> 00:46:27,307
I’ll write that down too.
1319
00:46:27,307 –> 00:46:29,387
20 bucks and a happy birthday.
1320
00:46:32,147 –> 00:46:33,147
You’re a kind man.
1321
00:46:34,507 –> 00:46:35,227
So, Woody.
1322
00:46:36,827 –> 00:46:38,067
Look, just look at it this way.
1323
00:46:38,387 –> 00:46:40,907
Just no, I do not bet because I don’t like to lose.
1324
00:46:41,787 –> 00:46:42,267
We, you know,
1325
00:46:42,347 –> 00:46:45,867
I will play like a like a DraftKings every once in
1326
00:46:46,347 –> 00:46:48,427
That’s what I was wondering cause you kind of so your
1327
00:46:48,427 –> 00:46:51,587
knowledge doesn’t doesn’t qualify as insider trading
1328
00:46:52,347 –> 00:46:54,227
No, no, no it it it does not.
1329
00:46:54,227 –> 00:46:55,387
But I don’t.
1330
00:46:55,387 –> 00:46:57,267
I don’t really bet on a regular basis.
1331
00:46:57,267 –> 00:46:58,027
So I mean,
1332
00:46:58,027 –> 00:46:59,547
but I will give people,
1333
00:46:59,627 –> 00:46:59,867
you know,
1334
00:46:59,867 –> 00:47:03,067
tips and help them if they like to bet and tips like
1335
00:47:03,107 –> 00:47:03,947
what we’re listening.
1336
00:47:05,947 –> 00:47:09,787
Tips like tips like don’t look at the next four games,
1337
00:47:09,947 –> 00:47:12,107
just look at the next game in front of you because
1338
00:47:12,107 –> 00:47:12,907
that’s all you can do.
1339
00:47:12,907 –> 00:47:14,507
You can’t win four games at once.
1340
00:47:14,827 –> 00:47:16,227
So just try to win the next game.
1341
00:47:16,227 –> 00:47:18,187
And that’s what this Lions team has done.
1342
00:47:18,547 –> 00:47:20,587
All they’ve done is look at the next week,
1343
00:47:20,907 –> 00:47:21,627
the next week,
1344
00:47:21,707 –> 00:47:23,227
the next week and look where we are.
1345
00:47:23,427 –> 00:47:24,587
11 wins in a row,
1346
00:47:24,747 –> 00:47:28,307
12 and one on top of the NFC and the on top of the
1347
00:47:28,907 –> 00:47:29,387
Best team,
1348
00:47:29,707 –> 00:47:31,947
the best team in the NFL in my opinion.
1349
00:47:32,667 –> 00:47:34,827
So you’re saying take the over against Buffalo?
1350
00:47:35,147 –> 00:47:38,747
Look, you know what I was for a while I was giving
1351
00:47:38,747 –> 00:47:43,587
out a my best college tip and it was bet Miami and
1352
00:47:43,587 –> 00:47:46,987
take the over every game because the games were putting
1353
00:47:46,987 –> 00:47:47,787
up forty-five,
1354
00:47:47,787 –> 00:47:50,187
forty-six points a game just on their own.
1355
00:47:50,347 –> 00:47:52,347
So if you want to bet the Lions,
1356
00:47:53,227 –> 00:47:53,467
you know,
1357
00:47:53,467 –> 00:47:54,987
look, feel free,
1358
00:47:54,987 –> 00:47:55,867
bet up to win,
1359
00:47:56,507 –> 00:47:56,827
you know,
1360
00:47:56,827 –> 00:47:57,787
do whatever you want.
1361
00:47:58,907 –> 00:48:02,107
Yeah, I am not afraid of anybody on the Lions schedule
1362
00:48:02,107 –> 00:48:03,547
or I’m not afraid of,
1363
00:48:03,947 –> 00:48:04,187
you know,
1364
00:48:04,187 –> 00:48:05,667
injuries or anything else like that.
1365
00:48:05,707 –> 00:48:06,907
Look at what Dan Campbell has done.
1366
00:48:06,907 –> 00:48:08,627
These guys have come off other guys,
1367
00:48:08,627 –> 00:48:11,867
practice squads and all this stuff and fit right in,
1368
00:48:12,027 –> 00:48:13,147
fit right in.
1369
00:48:13,467 –> 00:48:16,267
So yeah, it’s great to see and I’m looking for more
1370
00:48:16,427 –> 00:48:18,187
cause it’s it’s a cult like I just,
1371
00:48:18,187 –> 00:48:18,507
you know,
1372
00:48:18,507 –> 00:48:19,427
you’re right about that.
1373
00:48:19,427 –> 00:48:20,827
I’m just gonna enjoy each game,
1374
00:48:20,987 –> 00:48:21,227
you know,
1375
00:48:21,227 –> 00:48:23,427
but 59 like this is 50,
1376
00:48:24,027 –> 00:48:25,867
OK with my real consciousness,
1377
00:48:25,867 –> 00:48:27,707
50 years of.
1378
00:48:28,987 –> 00:48:31,787
Sunday put on the Lions.
1379
00:48:32,027 –> 00:48:32,907
They lose.
1380
00:48:33,147 –> 00:48:34,587
60 minutes is over.
1381
00:48:34,827 –> 00:48:37,747
It’s Monday over and over.
1382
00:48:37,747 –> 00:48:38,347
And you know something?
1383
00:48:38,347 –> 00:48:39,787
I’m kind of ramped up about this.
1384
00:48:39,787 –> 00:48:40,747
You know, it’s depressing.
1385
00:48:40,907 –> 00:48:41,867
Yeah, you you should be.
1386
00:48:41,947 –> 00:48:43,547
You should be ramped up about this,
1387
00:48:43,547 –> 00:48:45,067
Charlie, because let’s be honest,
1388
00:48:45,147 –> 00:48:48,507
I’m not carrying 50 years of baggage into this year’s
1389
00:48:49,307 –> 00:48:51,147
It’s different than it was 50 years ago.
1390
00:48:51,147 –> 00:48:52,507
It’s different than when Barry played.
1391
00:48:52,667 –> 00:48:54,347
It’s different than when Billy Sims played.
1392
00:48:54,507 –> 00:48:56,307
It’s different than when Dexter Bussey played.
1393
00:48:56,307 –> 00:48:57,227
It’s different when then,
1394
00:48:57,387 –> 00:48:57,707
you know,
1395
00:48:57,947 –> 00:48:58,987
Joe Schmidt played.
1396
00:48:59,307 –> 00:49:00,907
I mean, this is right now.
1397
00:49:01,066 –> 00:49:03,946
We can’t do anything about 0 and 16 or any of that
1398
00:49:03,946 –> 00:49:05,466
other crap from years past.
1399
00:49:05,466 –> 00:49:10,186
It’s all about 12 and one and you got Buffalo on Sunday
1400
00:49:10,986 –> 00:49:12,666
You know, it’s it’s not that different though,
1401
00:49:12,666 –> 00:49:14,706
from when Patricia and Quinn were here.
1402
00:49:14,706 –> 00:49:16,266
I mean, it’s just a few years ago.
1403
00:49:16,506 –> 00:49:17,946
And from everything I’ve heard,
1404
00:49:18,106 –> 00:49:20,106
pretty awful front office,
1405
00:49:20,106 –> 00:49:21,706
pretty awful locker room.
1406
00:49:22,626 –> 00:49:24,426
I mean, how drastic is the change now?
1407
00:49:24,426 –> 00:49:26,666
I mean, everything we hear about Campbell is just rosy.
1408
00:49:26,666 –> 00:49:28,306
Is that are we being misled?
1409
00:49:28,306 –> 00:49:29,146
It’s totally different.
1410
00:49:29,546 –> 00:49:30,426
It’s totally different.
1411
00:49:30,426 –> 00:49:31,786
And you’re not being misled.
1412
00:49:31,946 –> 00:49:34,586
I mean, you have right now,
1413
00:49:34,586 –> 00:49:37,466
or I should say we have right now in the Lions brain
1414
00:49:37,466 –> 00:49:40,666
trust, one of the one of the best that has ever been
1415
00:49:40,666 –> 00:49:41,306
put together.
1416
00:49:41,306 –> 00:49:42,226
I mean, let’s be honest,
1417
00:49:42,346 –> 00:49:45,946
Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell are not getting guys
1418
00:49:45,946 –> 00:49:46,906
who are, you know,
1419
00:49:47,066 –> 00:49:48,106
the best players,
1420
00:49:48,106 –> 00:49:48,786
let’s be honest.
1421
00:49:48,786 –> 00:49:51,226
They’re getting guys who are the best fit for what
1422
00:49:51,226 –> 00:49:52,186
they want to do.
1423
00:49:52,266 –> 00:49:54,986
And that’s how these guys are coming off the street
1424
00:49:54,986 –> 00:49:56,186
and stepping right in.
1425
00:49:56,346 –> 00:49:59,066
And performing at a high level because they’re a fit
1426
00:49:59,066 –> 00:50:00,906
for what they need them to do.
1427
00:50:01,146 –> 00:50:02,226
And that’s perfect.
1428
00:50:02,346 –> 00:50:03,226
It’s not about,
1429
00:50:03,226 –> 00:50:03,546
you know,
1430
00:50:04,346 –> 00:50:05,066
It’s not about,
1431
00:50:05,066 –> 00:50:06,746
oh, this guy is the best or that.
1432
00:50:06,746 –> 00:50:08,426
No, he fits what we do.
1433
00:50:08,586 –> 00:50:10,666
So we’re going to use him and he’s going to step up.
1434
00:50:10,746 –> 00:50:11,466
And so far,
1435
00:50:11,626 –> 00:50:13,626
that’s what we’re seeing with almost everybody who
1436
00:50:13,626 –> 00:50:14,746
they brought into play.
1437
00:50:15,266 –> 00:50:17,346
Well, let me give you my perspective from not necessarily
1438
00:50:17,346 –> 00:50:18,266
a football fan,
1439
00:50:18,666 –> 00:50:19,426
but I I mean,
1440
00:50:19,946 –> 00:50:23,426
But I I look at Dan Campbell and he has a bravado and
1441
00:50:23,426 –> 00:50:26,906
an energy and a presence to me that plays into the
1442
00:50:26,906 –> 00:50:30,906
mentality necessary to play a game as abrasive as
1443
00:50:30,906 –> 00:50:31,466
football.
1444
00:50:31,666 –> 00:50:33,866
When I look at him and I look at Matt Patricia,
1445
00:50:34,506 –> 00:50:34,906
you know,
1446
00:50:34,906 –> 00:50:36,986
Dan Campbell looks like a football player.
1447
00:50:36,986 –> 00:50:40,386
He he has such a different approach to me that I think
1448
00:50:40,386 –> 00:50:43,386
transitions into a different attitude from the players.
1449
00:50:43,866 –> 00:50:45,066
I would agree.
1450
00:50:45,226 –> 00:50:46,506
No, no, I would agree with that,
1451
00:50:46,826 –> 00:50:47,546
But The thing is,
1452
00:50:47,546 –> 00:50:48,426
it’s not that he’s,
1453
00:50:48,426 –> 00:50:48,666
you know,
1454
00:50:48,666 –> 00:50:49,946
smarter than anybody else.
1455
00:50:50,186 –> 00:50:53,146
He has a vision and you can see his vision.
1456
00:50:53,186 –> 00:50:55,706
I mean, you could not really see Matt Patricia’s vision.
1457
00:50:55,946 –> 00:50:58,026
You really couldn’t see Rod Marinelli’s vision.
1458
00:50:58,066 –> 00:51:00,466
Dan Campbell looks like he’s in shape.
1459
00:51:00,506 –> 00:51:01,946
Oh, no doubt,
1460
00:51:02,186 –> 00:51:02,506
no doubt.
1461
00:51:02,626 –> 00:51:03,946
I mean, as a as a former,
1462
00:51:03,946 –> 00:51:04,986
you know,
1463
00:51:05,066 –> 00:51:10,186
yes, he has maintained his his physique,
1464
00:51:10,186 –> 00:51:10,906
so to say,
1465
00:51:11,146 –> 00:51:12,826
and he’s out there with the guys.
1466
00:51:13,306 –> 00:51:15,146
He’s, he’s,
1467
00:51:16,026 –> 00:51:17,226
he’s one of the guys out there.
1468
00:51:17,226 –> 00:51:19,826
He’s doing the up downs just like the players and all
1469
00:51:19,826 –> 00:51:20,106
that stuff.
1470
00:51:20,826 –> 00:51:23,386
And that’s why that’s why they run through the wall
1471
00:51:23,386 –> 00:51:25,666
for him, because he is a player’s coach.
1472
00:51:25,706 –> 00:51:26,426
Speaking of which,
1473
00:51:26,506 –> 00:51:27,946
they see him as a player,
1474
00:51:28,026 –> 00:51:29,066
Speaking of which,
1475
00:51:29,466 –> 00:51:32,986
it’s not said enough that defense,
1476
00:51:33,306 –> 00:51:34,346
This is a culture deal.
1477
00:51:34,346 –> 00:51:35,466
This why they’re busted up.
1478
00:51:35,946 –> 00:51:37,466
They fucking hit.
1479
00:51:38,186 –> 00:51:40,146
I mean, you can hear it through the TV screen.
1480
00:51:40,146 –> 00:51:42,106
They fucking hit.
1481
00:51:42,746 –> 00:51:43,626
Yes, they do.
1482
00:51:43,626 –> 00:51:44,386
But I don’t.
1483
00:51:44,426 –> 00:51:47,066
I don’t buy into that narrative that practice is too
1484
00:51:47,066 –> 00:51:48,986
tough and guys are getting injured at,
1485
00:51:49,066 –> 00:51:49,386
you know,
1486
00:51:49,546 –> 00:51:50,466
because it’s too tough.
1487
00:51:50,466 –> 00:51:51,946
No, but they do hit.
1488
00:51:51,946 –> 00:51:55,146
Brian Branch is a missile in the secondary when he
1489
00:51:55,146 –> 00:51:55,746
comes up.
1490
00:51:56,026 –> 00:51:58,666
Kirby Joseph is a missile in the secondary when he
1491
00:51:58,666 –> 00:51:59,146
comes up.
1492
00:51:59,386 –> 00:52:02,666
Jack Campbell at linebacker is stepping up in a big
1493
00:52:03,066 –> 00:52:03,626
And you know what?
1494
00:52:03,626 –> 00:52:04,506
Here’s the other thing.
1495
00:52:04,746 –> 00:52:06,746
And Mark, you probably know this as well.
1496
00:52:06,906 –> 00:52:08,746
The Lions each day.
1497
00:52:08,986 –> 00:52:11,466
Are getting healthier as they get back.
1498
00:52:11,466 –> 00:52:14,306
So we may even see Alex Anzaloni at the end of the
1499
00:52:14,306 –> 00:52:15,786
year ready for the playoffs.
1500
00:52:15,786 –> 00:52:18,666
We may see some of these guys stepping back into their
1501
00:52:19,066 –> 00:52:21,546
And then when you throw in the guys they have currently
1502
00:52:21,546 –> 00:52:22,066
now playing,
1503
00:52:22,346 –> 00:52:23,626
that means added depth.
1504
00:52:23,906 –> 00:52:26,386
And that could be the mean that the Sky’s the limit
1505
00:52:26,386 –> 00:52:28,626
for this team when the playoffs roll around.
1506
00:52:28,906 –> 00:52:30,906
Let me tell you about that O and 16 season though.
1507
00:52:30,906 –> 00:52:31,986
This is why it broke my heart.
1508
00:52:33,226 –> 00:52:34,746
I had just gotten into town,
1509
00:52:35,226 –> 00:52:37,666
And it was the 75th.
1510
00:52:38,266 –> 00:52:41,466
Year anniversary of the Lions and the 40 year anniversary
1511
00:52:41,546 –> 00:52:44,906
of the book Paper Lion by George Plimpton where he
1512
00:52:44,906 –> 00:52:46,666
goes through a pre-season where he’s a writer.
1513
00:52:46,666 –> 00:52:47,146
He’s, you know,
1514
00:52:47,146 –> 00:52:48,346
it’s great book,
1515
00:52:48,666 –> 00:52:50,506
really great classic book.
1516
00:52:50,746 –> 00:52:52,186
And I went to go see Matt Millen,
1517
00:52:52,346 –> 00:52:52,666
you know,
1518
00:52:52,906 –> 00:52:57,466
Detroit News writer and the culture in there was,
1519
00:52:57,466 –> 00:52:59,346
it just reeked of losing.
1520
00:52:59,346 –> 00:53:00,346
It just, it really did.
1521
00:53:00,346 –> 00:53:01,066
It was glum.
1522
00:53:01,066 –> 00:53:01,946
It just it reeked.
1523
00:53:02,106 –> 00:53:04,346
But Millen was really cool to me and I said,
1524
00:53:04,346 –> 00:53:05,066
hey, how about,
1525
00:53:05,066 –> 00:53:05,226
you know,
1526
00:53:05,226 –> 00:53:06,266
for the anniversary?
1527
00:53:06,906 –> 00:53:10,026
I do the Paper Lion redo and he goes,
1528
00:53:10,026 –> 00:53:12,106
well, there’s new rules now in the pre-season.
1529
00:53:12,106 –> 00:53:13,466
There’s still a roster limit,
1530
00:53:13,626 –> 00:53:16,026
but you can come to rookie camp.
1531
00:53:16,706 –> 00:53:17,146
And I’m like,
1532
00:53:17,186 –> 00:53:18,986
I’m going to fucking rookie camp.
1533
00:53:19,266 –> 00:53:20,666
I’m going to fucking rookie.
1534
00:53:21,666 –> 00:53:23,666
And then they went on in 16 and got fired and I never
1535
00:53:23,666 –> 00:53:24,546
got to do the rookie camp.
1536
00:53:24,546 –> 00:53:26,426
Oh, well, hey,
1537
00:53:26,426 –> 00:53:28,386
look, they did go four and O that preseason.
1538
00:53:28,666 –> 00:53:29,306
It’s true.
1539
00:53:29,586 –> 00:53:30,826
They were undefeated that year.
1540
00:53:30,826 –> 00:53:33,226
The encyclopedia known as Woody Woodruff,
1541
00:53:33,546 –> 00:53:35,226
Fox 2 Sports Anchor.
1542
00:53:36,506 –> 00:53:37,426
Really great to see you,
1543
00:53:37,786 –> 00:53:41,266
It’s it’s nice to see you in a happy sports moment
1544
00:53:41,266 –> 00:53:43,346
in this town cause it’s just been dark so long.
1545
00:53:43,346 –> 00:53:44,746
And you know what?
1546
00:53:44,826 –> 00:53:47,106
The Lions aren’t the only team that’s trending up.
1547
00:53:47,106 –> 00:53:48,066
Think about the Pistons.
1548
00:53:48,066 –> 00:53:50,186
They’re also trending the right way.
1549
00:53:50,186 –> 00:53:53,386
They only won 14 games last year and already they have
1550
00:53:53,386 –> 00:53:54,346
won nine.
1551
00:53:54,986 –> 00:53:58,106
Dude, they’re in the bottom five of the Eastern Conference.
1552
00:53:58,146 –> 00:53:59,346
I’m not buying that.
1553
00:53:59,346 –> 00:54:01,146
Do not be surprised.
1554
00:54:01,266 –> 00:54:04,906
Do not be surprised if the Detroit Pistons may be sniffing
1555
00:54:04,906 –> 00:54:08,066
that while that last playoff spot in the East at the
1556
00:54:08,066 –> 00:54:08,586
end of the year.
1557
00:54:08,586 –> 00:54:09,706
Do not be surprised.
1558
00:54:09,866 –> 00:54:11,386
Yeah, but I don’t even get the playoffs.
1559
00:54:11,386 –> 00:54:13,466
You mean the play in like you’re in 10th place.
1560
00:54:13,466 –> 00:54:15,706
Your 10th place is something to get excited about.
1561
00:54:16,706 –> 00:54:17,546
Look, you know what?
1562
00:54:17,546 –> 00:54:20,186
After a team that only won 14 games last year,
1563
00:54:20,186 –> 00:54:21,746
that is something to get excited about.
1564
00:54:21,826 –> 00:54:22,306
Yes, it is.
1565
00:54:22,466 –> 00:54:24,186
That is trending in the right direction.
1566
00:54:24,586 –> 00:54:25,266
And the Red Wings.
1567
00:54:25,266 –> 00:54:26,426
And the Red Wings.
1568
00:54:27,146 –> 00:54:29,426
Well, we got a little more work to do on that end.
1569
00:54:29,506 –> 00:54:32,426
I mean, guys are starting to call for Steve Eiserman’s
1570
00:54:33,066 –> 00:54:34,266
And you know,
1571
00:54:34,266 –> 00:54:36,186
and and maybe rightly so,
1572
00:54:36,186 –> 00:54:37,386
because it’s been,
1573
00:54:37,386 –> 00:54:40,026
what, six years now that we’ve been looking at this
1574
00:54:40,666 –> 00:54:42,266
And I remember when Ken Holland left,
1575
00:54:42,266 –> 00:54:43,786
he said a rebuild takes 10 years.
1576
00:54:43,786 –> 00:54:44,346
And we were saying,
1577
00:54:44,586 –> 00:54:45,506
Oh no, it doesn’t.
1578
00:54:45,506 –> 00:54:46,186
Oh, no way.
1579
00:54:46,786 –> 00:54:50,506
Apparently he may be right because we’re on year six
1580
00:54:50,506 –> 00:54:53,226
and we’re starting to see calls for Derek Lalone’s
1581
00:54:53,866 –> 00:54:55,946
We’re starting to see calls for Steve Eiserman’s head.
1582
00:54:55,946 –> 00:54:57,946
I don’t know where the answers are going to come from
1583
00:54:58,186 –> 00:54:59,066
with the hockey team,
1584
00:54:59,066 –> 00:55:01,946
but let’s just stick with the Eiser plan,
1585
00:55:02,826 –> 00:55:03,746
Because, I mean,
1586
00:55:03,866 –> 00:55:04,106
you know,
1587
00:55:04,106 –> 00:55:04,746
that was the problem.
1588
00:55:04,746 –> 00:55:05,866
You may not be able to.
1589
00:55:06,026 –> 00:55:08,546
That was the problem until this last decade.
1590
00:55:08,546 –> 00:55:10,586
Here’s a merry-go-round of the rebuild,
1591
00:55:10,586 –> 00:55:11,386
the Tigers,
1592
00:55:11,386 –> 00:55:12,266
the Lions,
1593
00:55:12,266 –> 00:55:12,906
the, you know,
1594
00:55:13,386 –> 00:55:14,426
stay the course.
1595
00:55:15,746 –> 00:55:16,066
You know what,
1596
00:55:16,066 –> 00:55:17,706
Charlie, let me ask you a question right here.
1597
00:55:17,706 –> 00:55:19,226
I see it a lot with this,
1598
00:55:19,386 –> 00:55:22,426
with the teams in this town when they bring back former
1599
00:55:22,426 –> 00:55:25,306
players to be managers or front office people.
1600
00:55:25,626 –> 00:55:28,586
And it always seems to tarnish their playing legacy.
1601
00:55:28,906 –> 00:55:29,466
You know what I mean?
1602
00:55:29,466 –> 00:55:30,746
Like when Alan Trammell,
1603
00:55:31,466 –> 00:55:31,706
you know,
1604
00:55:31,706 –> 00:55:32,546
played for the Tigers,
1605
00:55:32,546 –> 00:55:33,466
he was fantastic.
1606
00:55:33,466 –> 00:55:34,826
But when he was the manager,
1607
00:55:35,066 –> 00:55:36,266
you ran him out of town.
1608
00:55:36,506 –> 00:55:38,426
You know, Phil Garner was a great player,
1609
00:55:38,426 –> 00:55:39,386
but when he was a manager,
1610
00:55:39,386 –> 00:55:40,186
he ran him out of town.
1611
00:55:40,186 –> 00:55:41,066
Joe Dumars,
1612
00:55:41,306 –> 00:55:42,106
a great player.
1613
00:55:42,106 –> 00:55:42,946
But when he was the,
1614
00:55:43,306 –> 00:55:43,626
you know,
1615
00:55:43,746 –> 00:55:45,306
when he was the boss of the Pistons.
1616
00:55:46,066 –> 00:55:48,506
Even though he delivered titles,
1617
00:55:48,986 –> 00:55:51,226
Even though he delivered titles and they ran him out
1618
00:55:51,626 –> 00:55:53,226
So even with Steve Eiserman,
1619
00:55:53,346 –> 00:55:53,946
I’m looking at,
1620
00:55:54,106 –> 00:55:56,986
is this the end game that we’re going to see with
1621
00:55:56,986 –> 00:55:58,906
Steve Eiserman where he gets run out of town?
1622
00:55:58,906 –> 00:55:59,426
I don’t know.
1623
00:55:59,426 –> 00:55:59,866
Wait a minute,
1624
00:55:59,866 –> 00:56:00,506
wait a minute.
1625
00:56:00,586 –> 00:56:03,546
The the Dawn is breaking on that one too,
1626
00:56:03,546 –> 00:56:08,666
because Dan Campbell was a Detroit Lions and remember
1627
00:56:08,746 –> 00:56:10,986
there there were very loud calls from.
1628
00:56:14,986 –> 00:56:18,226
Well, that is true.
1629
00:56:18,906 –> 00:56:21,386
But you know what?
1630
00:56:21,386 –> 00:56:24,546
If he if he does turn in with a Super Bowl victory,
1631
00:56:24,546 –> 00:56:25,906
I think that wipes the slate clean,
1632
00:56:25,906 –> 00:56:26,226
doesn’t it?
1633
00:56:26,346 –> 00:56:26,906
Yeah, it does,
1634
00:56:27,786 –> 00:56:28,506
Yeah, probably a statue.
1635
00:56:29,786 –> 00:56:32,346
He might have a statue right next to Barry.
1636
00:56:32,346 –> 00:56:34,826
Do we have a picture of Woody at the.
1637
00:56:35,946 –> 00:56:38,306
Yeah, I can put it up later.
1638
00:56:38,386 –> 00:56:40,186
Oh, you mean at the benefit?
1639
00:56:40,666 –> 00:56:41,706
Yeah, Killer’s Christmas,
1640
00:56:42,146 –> 00:56:44,026
I was dressed as a snowman.
1641
00:56:44,746 –> 00:56:46,026
That is a great costume.
1642
00:56:46,306 –> 00:56:48,986
Yeah, we had a lot of fun.
1643
00:56:49,226 –> 00:56:50,226
Dude, I’m telling you,
1644
00:56:50,226 –> 00:56:52,666
this town is so much richer for having you here.
1645
00:56:53,426 –> 00:56:54,186
We appreciate that.
1646
00:56:54,186 –> 00:56:55,146
Really love and respect you,
1647
00:56:56,546 –> 00:56:57,546
You know, I try to just,
1648
00:56:57,946 –> 00:56:58,186
you know,
1649
00:56:58,186 –> 00:57:01,066
do what I do and give it to people straight.
1650
00:57:01,186 –> 00:57:01,946
I’m not really a,
1651
00:57:02,186 –> 00:57:02,426
you know,
1652
00:57:02,466 –> 00:57:04,026
a shtick guy where it’s like,
1653
00:57:04,386 –> 00:57:06,906
I’ll show you some video on Tuesdays and Wednesdays
1654
00:57:06,906 –> 00:57:09,266
like a former guy around here used to do.
1655
00:57:09,266 –> 00:57:11,626
But we just try to play it straight,
1656
00:57:11,626 –> 00:57:11,946
you know?
1657
00:57:11,946 –> 00:57:14,186
And Dan Miller and Jennifer Hammond and myself,
1658
00:57:14,186 –> 00:57:15,386
we we had a good team.
1659
00:57:15,386 –> 00:57:17,226
I can’t believe it’s been the best sports crew around,
1660
00:57:18,346 –> 00:57:19,226
Twenty-six years,
1661
00:57:19,546 –> 00:57:19,986
It’s crazy.
1662
00:57:21,586 –> 00:57:22,426
Yeah, I got one.
1663
00:57:22,506 –> 00:57:23,146
Never mind.
1664
00:57:23,386 –> 00:57:23,706
All right,
1665
00:57:25,586 –> 00:57:26,226
We’ll see you later,
1666
00:57:26,466 –> 00:57:27,226
Thanks for the time.
1667
00:57:27,386 –> 00:57:27,746
All right,
1668
00:57:28,146 –> 00:57:28,906
Good to see you.
1669
00:57:29,386 –> 00:57:29,866
Nice to see you,
1670
00:57:30,106 –> 00:57:30,906
Happy holidays.
1671
00:57:31,226 –> 00:57:31,786
Merry Christmas,
1672
00:57:32,186 –> 00:57:32,986
Everybody out there.
1673
00:57:33,386 –> 00:57:33,986
I appreciate it.
1674
00:57:33,986 –> 00:57:34,346
Thanks, Woody.
1675
00:57:34,586 –> 00:57:35,146
And that’s it.
1676
00:57:35,506 –> 00:57:37,306
And we’ll see you next week.
1677
00:57:37,306 –> 00:57:38,146
All right.
1678
00:57:38,146 –> 00:57:38,346
All right.
1679
00:57:38,746 –> 00:57:39,466
Go, Lions.
1680
00:58:27,546 –> 00:58:28,026
Look at him,
1681
00:58:28,026 –> 00:58:28,826
need Bobby get it,
1682
00:58:29,386 –> 00:58:29,666
you know.
1683
00:58:33,666 –> 00:58:34,666
I forgot my burners.
