Rocking some chicken fingers in there.

0:02

Chicken tenders today. Jesus. Ooh, I like

0:04

the chicken tenders. It's got the chicken

0:07

fingers and the sauce going. Makes his

0:09

homemade cane sauce. I will. Joe,

0:13

what's over the corner? What are you, nine years old? You

0:15

got to eat. Oh, boy.

0:17

That's so funny. I'm glad,

0:19

Joe, you said it that way because on

0:21

occasion, I will go to my local festival and

0:23

get a couple of chicken tenders. And

0:26

my kid will, because he eats really

0:29

well, he'll look at me when I

0:31

get him. He'll come home and he'll

0:33

call me a bleeping child. That's right.

0:35

They're just the stuff that sweep up

0:37

off the chicken floor. You're buzz kills.

0:40

Wow. What's it like to

0:42

be so precious and perfect and better

0:44

than the entire world? You're horrible, John.

0:47

We're rolling. Kenny, I'm the one that

0:49

he's the one that swears. I'm

1:00

out of here. What

1:04

are we doing today? I've

1:09

wreaked havoc. I

1:12

swear to help. Fradlone's Hardware and Garden Stores

1:14

brings you garage logic podcasts over 1284, April

1:19

10th, 2024. 88

1:21

degrees on this day back in 1977 and 18 degrees on this day

1:23

in 1962. The

1:31

swimming season is rapidly approaching. We're

1:33

headed for the 70s this weekend.

1:36

And if you have a lake or a

1:38

swimming hole, get a hold of Aquaside. They'll

1:40

take care of the algae and the weeds and all

1:42

the junk that's in there that you don't want. Aquaside's

1:45

been helping people maintain

1:47

great lakeshores for more than 60 years or a

1:50

white bear lake company.

1:52

They know their lakes. They

1:54

have a complete line of lake and

1:56

pond control products that work quickly. They're

1:58

safe. They're approved. the DNR but

2:01

most importantly very easy to use.

2:03

I've used them. That's how easy they are.

2:07

Call them. They'll identify your weed problem and

2:09

get you the right products. Call

2:11

Aquaside at 1-800-328-9350 or go to aquaside.com. We

2:13

have ice outs brought

2:21

to you by Aquaside. Minnetonka went

2:24

out today in 1934, 1959, 1963, 1977 you'll

2:33

note that the record high today was 1977, 88 degrees, and 1992. White

2:35

Bear Lake

2:40

went out in April 10, 1935, 1948, 1953, and like Minnetonka in 1992.

2:52

Hail the flashlight King! Hail

2:54

you! And now from the

2:56

mayor's office above the boathouse

2:58

on the east shore of

3:00

Spoon Lake, it's garage logic

3:02

with Chris Weaver Tom

3:14

and the keeper of common sense.

3:16

You and Mayor Joe Suescher. We

3:26

were talking about Kathy

3:28

Cargill yesterday and our

3:31

desire that she would join us on the show. I

3:34

have people working on that. I

3:36

don't know if she'll join us. Please,

3:38

of course you will. I got a

3:41

note from Brian Miller who writes a

3:43

listener since the beginning. I love the

3:45

segment on Kathy Cargill, an ore-docker. I

3:47

am in my 13th year as the

3:50

athletic director of the ore-dockers.

3:53

We are proud of that mascot. You nailed

3:55

the pronunciation of the family name of... he

3:58

keeps calling her Mary Card. Carrigal, Kathy

4:01

Carrigal, it's Paspahala. That

4:04

is a great Ashland family who have

4:06

towed vehicles and helped people for many

4:08

years. We would be thrilled if

4:11

Superior and Duluth have denigrated

4:14

this wonderful woman. If

4:16

she loses her investment, we would certainly

4:18

allow her to help develop the waterfront

4:21

in Ashland. Wow,

4:23

what an hour, British. I've just had

4:25

an idea. Who was

4:27

that hack writer that you loved so

4:30

much in New York when he couldn't

4:32

interview anybody important for the JFK murder,

4:34

interviewed the doctor or the ambulance driver

4:36

or whatever that all the time was?

4:38

I will not answer you until you

4:40

retract the hack part. That

4:45

was just me fishing. My idea is

4:47

we take Breslin. We

4:49

take a page from his book and

4:52

we interview her dad. We

4:55

could. Or we interview

4:57

the athletic director at the Orr Dockers. No,

4:59

her dad. Let me tell you more about

5:02

Mary. Willard Anger writes,

5:05

we all enjoy rookie's unique blend

5:07

of open valve commentary and class

5:10

clown disruptiveness. But

5:12

hasn't he been around a lot lately? Is

5:14

it slow at the airport? God

5:17

love him, Willard Anger. Okay. I

5:20

ran into Mary Morality today.

5:23

Jim from Sanibel was no longer in

5:25

Sanibel. He said hello. I

5:28

did miss Phineas Dent. Phineas

5:30

was at the Timberwolves game last night where

5:33

Anthony Edwards scored 51 for 50. Did

5:37

you talk to Mary Morality? I greeted her. I

5:39

did not introduce who I was because she was

5:42

from afar. I wonder where that fraud's going now

5:44

on vacation. She isn't that she was on vacation,

5:46

but she says it's actually for work. So it

5:48

was just 10 seconds. Wait.

5:51

Wait. Wait. No,

5:53

no idea. I think she was

5:55

surprised to be recognized. I don't think I can

5:58

respect you if you didn't say something mean. to

6:00

her. I wasn't close enough. You

6:02

could have yelled gold bleep yourself. Yeah, just

6:04

at the top of your lungs. You know

6:06

what, I just wasn't feeling it. Hey Mary,

6:08

he says go. Can I

6:12

finish these emails before I get to

6:14

the destructive? What do you wait for?

6:17

Well, Downing is a prediction. We have

6:19

women's college basketball coaches being pressured to

6:21

say they would welcome trans players on

6:23

their teams. As that

6:25

becomes a reality, we will get to

6:27

the point where any coach who does

6:29

not have a trans player on his

6:31

or her team will be questioned. Why

6:33

don't you have any trans players? Are

6:36

you and your program transphobic? As

6:38

a result, they will start to

6:40

actively recruit trans players. They will

6:42

all need a token tranny. The

6:44

irony, the token tranny player will

6:46

often be the best player on

6:48

the team. Downing notes, put this

6:50

in the book of predictions. Well,

6:53

it's either that or the insanity

6:55

will end and we

6:57

won't have to have boys. I don't

7:00

see that happening. I think he's right.

7:02

It's the SG. They don't have any

7:04

choice. They have to do it. Don

7:06

Staley, the, uh, uh,

7:09

what school is it? South Carolina

7:11

championship team said that

7:13

she would, she welcomes trans players. Hmm.

7:18

Finally, another note,

7:20

uh, on the

7:24

eclipse. All right. Uh, I'm

7:28

guessing you're played out on eclipse

7:31

news, but here's the email my

7:33

daughter's school sent last week regarding

7:35

eclipse safety. I won't put

7:37

his name wrong. Dear big

7:40

Lake families, as

7:42

we approach the highly anticipated solar eclipse

7:44

on Monday, April 8th, we want to

7:46

take a moment to remind

7:49

our students and families about the importance

7:51

of safety viewing this

7:53

celestial event. While solar

7:55

eclipses are remarkable, it is crucial

7:57

to remember the potential dangers. associated

8:00

with looking directly at

8:02

the sun. We'll be working

8:05

with staff to keep students indoors during

8:07

the eclipse to discourage

8:09

unsafe viewing of the event while

8:11

we can. Wow. Jeez.

8:14

Please note that the eclipse is anticipated

8:16

to begin around 1 p.m. and end

8:18

around 3 p.m. This

8:21

means we cannot completely avoid

8:23

students going outside and being

8:25

attempted to look at the

8:27

sun as our elementaries dismiss

8:29

students within that timeframe. As

8:32

partners in your child's education and

8:34

well-being, we ask for your assistance

8:36

in reinforcing to never look directly

8:38

at the sun. Even during an

8:40

eclipse, the sun's rays can cause

8:42

serious damage to the eyes. Please

8:45

take some time this weekend to

8:47

remind your child to never look

8:49

directly at the sun without proper

8:51

eye protection. Right now,

8:53

if the weather prediction of clouds and

8:55

rain on Monday holds true, there will

8:58

be no concerns. However, we

9:00

appreciate your support in reinforcing

9:03

these important safety guidelines

9:05

at home in case

9:07

the weather predictions change.

9:09

Sincerely, Tim Trubenbach, Superintendent.

9:11

Okay, Tim, you don't

9:13

get it. Tim is

9:15

a very, very soft individual. He

9:17

was probably raised by

9:19

hippie cry babies who didn't dare

9:21

let their kids out of the

9:23

house. I don't know about

9:26

you guys, but as a child, it

9:28

never occurred to me to look at the sun

9:31

until somebody told me not to. Right.

9:34

And then I'm looking right at it. And don't

9:36

press this button. What happened

9:38

when I looked at the sun?

9:40

I learned a valuable lesson that

9:42

still holds true today. I

9:44

thought the whole deal was the kids

9:47

made their little viewing cardboards in

9:49

class where they cut a little hole. And

9:52

then they took them outside. And

9:54

you got to see the eclipse.

9:56

The cardboard sunglasses, the welding mask.

10:01

I used to have paid

10:03

extra to overnight

10:05

to herself the eclipse

10:08

viewing sunglasses. There

10:10

being nothing to see here in the 20s. Wow.

10:14

You can't have it all. One that surfaces

10:16

one of my favorites. It's not, it's an

10:19

oldie but a goodie in which

10:21

there's a woman trying to get a

10:23

little bit closer to get a photo on her

10:25

cell phone. She takes out the

10:27

step ladder that's about two feet high. Get

10:30

a better view. That's

10:34

the equivalent of the woman who wanted to move to

10:36

the weekend. Whatever

10:38

happened to the GarageLogic groin

10:41

kick awards? The

10:43

groin kick is so frequented.

10:47

We just could not keep up. You've read two

10:49

of those kind of letters. The groin kick is super. In

10:52

the last two days you read another one yesterday

10:54

too. I know from

10:56

Reaver's part of the world. Yeah, it

10:58

was down Reaver's way. Same

11:01

thing, just that. There's

11:03

this. There he

11:05

is. I have a concerning

11:08

note. The Reverend

11:10

Tim needs a kidney. He's

11:12

got some kidney disease. He needs a

11:15

transplant. I

11:17

think we should mention that on the

11:19

off chance that people could

11:21

help Tim. Maybe we should call him later

11:24

in the week and see how

11:26

his search is going. He

11:29

does the Lord's work literally.

11:35

He needs some help there, the Reverend Tim.

11:38

Is today the 10th of April?

11:40

Yes. Is

11:42

that a blood type match situation? How

11:45

do you know if you believe it

11:47

is a match? I don't know that.

11:49

All right. Okay. Well, this

11:51

is dated the 10th. We have

11:53

a new State Department Diversity

11:56

Chief. All right. The

11:59

Biden Administration. has a new State

12:02

Department diversity chief

12:04

who has called America a

12:07

failed historic model and

12:10

demanded the destruction of tradition

12:12

at every juncture on

12:14

the altar of anti-racism. Her, of

12:17

course, Blinken announced this appointment. Her

12:20

name is Zakia Carr

12:22

Johnson. She's now

12:24

the chief diversity and inclusion officer for

12:27

the State Department. Let's check her background

12:29

here. And Blinken

12:31

touted Carr, C-A-R-R,

12:34

Carr Johnson for

12:36

bringing expertise and

12:38

a fresh perspective on how

12:41

we build a workforce that reflects America.

12:43

Well, I would reflect America too, but

12:46

all the Americans I know don't hate

12:48

America. Oh, correct.

12:50

Carr Johnson previously served as

12:53

Obama's senior advisor in director

12:55

of the first race,

12:58

ethnicity, and social inclusion

13:00

unit of

13:02

the State Department. Blinken

13:05

noted her experience since leaving

13:07

Obama's State Department. Her previous

13:10

work promoting entrepreneurship and access

13:12

to opportunity for underrepresented populations,

13:15

as well as her commitment to inclusive

13:17

leadership, make a stronger, smarter, and more innovative,

13:19

he said. B-S. Carr

13:24

Johnson's experience consists of owning

13:26

two relatively obscure companies, Odara

13:30

Solutions, a

13:32

DEI consulting firm, and

13:35

Black Women Disrupt, an

13:39

initiative in which Carr Johnson

13:41

interviewed black women involved

13:43

in creative spaces around the

13:45

world. She had a

13:47

YouTube channel and 125 subscribers. 125.

13:53

Oh, she's making... She's

14:00

making top dollar on that. I

14:03

was impressed there for a while. She

14:07

said in a feminist webinar in August

14:09

of 2020, because we live and work

14:11

within systems so

14:19

deeply rooted in patriarchy and

14:22

colonialism and racism and otherism,

14:25

what have I been telling you all along? This

14:27

all has to do with the country was flawed.

14:29

But what is she doing? She's got

14:32

these jobs probably getting these grants. What

14:34

are they doing with the money? She's

14:36

an activist, so that means she's living

14:38

off the money. She's not accomplishing anything.

14:40

I'm trying to look up. We

14:43

tend to be very resistant to

14:45

shifts and changes. It's very uncomfortable

14:47

for many colleagues. A culture of

14:49

misogyny has allowed men

14:51

to act without consequences and it becomes

14:53

part of what we believe is normal,

14:56

right? In order

14:58

to make any change, we've literally got

15:00

to be about the work of disbanding

15:02

the traditional structure at every juncture. She

15:05

believes America is a failed

15:07

historical model with a colonizing

15:09

past. I guess they

15:12

deleted that part of her. She

15:14

sounds so patriotic, Joe. Who

15:16

are you quoting there again, Joe? Her.

15:20

Okay, her. Okay, because I have a Blinken

15:22

statement. I read Blinken's statement. The

15:25

last paragraph is a real charm. I didn't get

15:27

to that yet. Feminists?

15:30

No, I can't. This is

15:32

insanity, folks. It's

15:35

just... It's

15:37

a crazy... Well, from what I'm seeing,

15:39

it's saying one thing and then doing

15:41

another, from what I'm reading from Blinken.

15:44

She demands intersectionality in

15:46

all spaces. Is

15:49

that a made-up word? I think so. I'm

15:52

looking for Blinken's last quote. You

15:58

can read it to me because I can't find... release

16:00

from the US State Department, the

16:02

final paragraph. All of

16:04

us at the State Department must

16:07

work to advance DEIA. If

16:09

we are to create the inclusive workplace

16:11

environment, we need to continue to attract

16:14

and retain the nation's top talent. When

16:16

the people making decisions on behalf of

16:18

the American people don't reflect the full

16:21

diversity of our nation, we all lose

16:23

and our national security is

16:25

weaker. Together we will ensure the

16:27

United States is the best

16:30

position to meet the challenges and

16:32

opportunities of an increasingly complex world.

16:34

So you read that and that

16:36

says one thing and it's almost

16:38

hard to disagree with it, but

16:40

then you read the quotes from

16:42

the gal and it makes you

16:44

kind of go, huh? There

16:46

is no Wikipedia page for her.

16:48

Is this the 10th of April?

16:50

Yeah. Well we learned this today

16:52

too that we got

16:55

to rename the Francis Scott Key

16:57

Bridge in Baltimore. What did

16:59

Francis do? Well the

17:01

caucus of African-American leaders

17:04

is requesting Maryland Governor Wes

17:06

Moore and the

17:09

General Assembly to rename the bridge

17:11

in honor of representative Perrin J.

17:13

Mitchell, the first black

17:15

congressman elected to the US House

17:18

of Representatives from Maryland. The

17:21

group said the bridge should not be named

17:23

after the writer of the national anthem who

17:25

was a slaveholder. Okay.

17:28

Key wrote

17:30

the Star Spangled Banner while he was a prisoner

17:32

aboard a British ship in the port of Baltimore

17:34

during the War of 1812. He

17:37

grew up on a slaveholding plantation

17:39

in Maryland. He

17:42

owned at least six enslaved

17:44

individuals himself. He did free

17:46

several of them eventually. His

17:48

relationship with slavery is complicated.

17:50

He opposed the transatlantic slave

17:52

trade and as an attorney

17:55

he defended enslaved people seeking

17:58

their freedom. but

18:00

he also represented slaveholders hoping

18:02

to regain their want runaway

18:04

property. While

18:07

he opposed abolition, he supported the

18:09

idea of sending free black men

18:11

and women to Africa. He

18:14

helped establish the American

18:16

Colonization Society, which started

18:18

a colony on the West Coast of

18:20

Africa, but became the independent nation of

18:22

Liberia. See, you

18:24

learn more here by accident than

18:27

anywhere else by design. He publicly

18:29

criticized slavery and gave free legal

18:31

representation to some slaves seeking freedom,

18:33

but he also represented owners of

18:35

runaway slaves. The

18:37

group is also calling to rename

18:39

a bridge in Dorchester County named

18:41

after Senator Frederick C. Malkus Jr.

18:45

The group says he was resistant

18:47

to desegregation during the civil rights

18:49

movement. The group proposed

18:51

renaming the bridge after civil

18:54

rights leader, Gloria Richardson. This

18:56

is from W.T.O.P in Washington.

18:59

They reached out to Governor Westmore's

19:01

office for comment. The

19:03

governor said, I am laser focused on

19:05

providing closure to these families, meaning the

19:07

people who lost life during the bridge

19:10

falling down. I'm focused on

19:12

clearing the channel and rebuilding the

19:14

bridge. Well, the Francis

19:16

Scott T name won't last. That'll

19:19

go, and I don't know

19:21

who this other. Whoa, you are related,

19:23

bro. Um,

19:27

I am. Distant cousin to F.

19:29

Scott Fitzgerald. Really? Yes. I

19:32

don't know how distant, but you are related to,

19:35

you're a shirt tail relative of Francis Scott

19:37

T. I am. Yep. And I never owned

19:39

slaves. No, no, well, we didn't have them

19:41

in Minnesota, so you know, you couldn't do

19:43

that here. Could they name the

19:45

bridge after me? The

19:48

Suji Bridge. Oh no, we'd find something near

19:50

past for sure. I'll give them a whole

19:53

list of things. Yeah. My

19:55

question, though, is with Governor Wes Moore.

19:57

Is it true his firstborn son? His

20:00

name is Les? I think so.

20:02

Les Moore? Les Moore. Told you you got

20:04

to read the book The Other Wes Moore.

20:08

I'm sitting there going Les Moore. Playing

20:11

the role of Reavers today. Look

20:14

at the weather forecast and get up to

20:16

Eco-Con Water Sports in Forest

20:18

Lake on Saturday. Or

20:21

the Burnsville store. I believe Kalen Bloom is

20:23

hosting an e-bike demo day though at the

20:26

Forest Lake store because they got the great

20:28

parking lot. So you go in there, you

20:30

get the e-bike on sale. Kalen, you go

20:32

outside, she's going to adjust everything. You're not

20:35

going to leave there with anything except the

20:37

perfect e-bike. It's this Saturday,

20:39

70 degrees or forecast. You

20:41

can test ride the newest Yamaha,

20:44

Ventelli and Scootstar electric bikes. Pre-season

20:47

sale prices are still in

20:49

effect. Yamaha electric

20:51

bikes are at dealer invoice pricing and

20:53

come with a five year warranty. And

20:56

Yamaha is throwing in a second

20:58

battery for free. So

21:00

get fitted for the correct bike. The

21:03

Forest Lake store is also the new

21:05

home of Yamaha wave runners and Kawasaki

21:07

jet skis. The showroom, which

21:09

is a fantasy land, has

21:12

a great selection in stock, ready to

21:14

create memories this summer for

21:16

you and your family on the lakes.

21:18

You wouldn't use it on the street.

21:21

You'd use it on the lake. Kawasaki

21:23

21:27

21:38

Mentioned GL and they honor the March

21:40

madness sale prices until the end

21:43

21:45

those Kawasaki mules come with an

21:47

industry leading three year warranty because

21:49

they are the best quality workhorses

21:51

in the industry. Here's why Tim

21:54

21:56

an outside the box thinker. No

21:58

25:20

were like me when I called ProTurf many many years

25:22

ago I didn't really have anything

25:24

in mind I just wanted some shrubs gone and

25:26

I wanted a nice patio and

25:28

they showed it all to me before they even

25:31

put a shovel in the ground with

25:33

their with their landscape computer

26:05

schedule that free pro turf estimate

26:07

today at professional turf dot-com you

26:09

know that Ron the sewer rat

26:11

guy you you know yeah you

26:13

me too yesterday yeah love him

26:15

you think he's a G Eller

26:17

well there's two ways to look at

26:21

that you could be a G Eller and be unaware

26:24

of the show but

26:26

if you listen to the show you're automatically

26:28

a G Eller yeah I guess when you

26:30

say is somebody a G Eller I mean

26:32

do they listen well so

26:34

I gotta get a hold of his

26:36

Ron the sewer rat guy listen to

26:38

what the show for

26:41

me the reason I think

26:43

Ron even though he may or may not

26:45

listen is a G Eller is because he

26:47

didn't try to upsell me on anything and

26:50

he said yeah I can deal with this and it

26:52

won't cost much and it didn't and I'm not what

26:55

can you seriously upsell on

26:57

a drain you know oh we

26:59

got the cameras you want the

27:01

deluxe model or you want the

27:03

regular oh trust me Matthew next

27:05

thing you know they'll be digging

27:07

holes in the floor in your

27:09

basement and running cameras and liners

27:11

all trust you and the whole

27:13

deal and Ron doesn't do that

27:15

under the rubric of we no

27:17

longer have a country which we

27:19

determined yesterday we don't it's

27:23

over in so many ways first-year

27:26

medical students at the University of

27:28

California Los Angeles we sometimes refer

27:30

to that as UCLA

27:34

we're forced to sit through a

27:36

lecture given by a Hamas supporter

27:38

who blasted modern medicine as white

27:41

science in ordered

27:43

them to pray to mama earth Lisa

27:48

tiny gray dash Garcia

27:51

Lisa tiny gray

27:54

Garcia gave a two-hour long

27:56

lecture called housing injustice in

27:58

LA Mama

28:00

Earth was never meant to be bought,

28:03

sold, pimped, or played, Gray

28:05

Garcia said in a clip of

28:09

her speech. I'm reading from the New York Post.

28:14

She claimed private property and scarcity

28:16

are capitalist, she called

28:18

it crappitallist, crappitallist

28:21

lies that killed black, brown, and houseless

28:23

people. And she rallied against

28:26

efforts to clean homes. She

28:28

rallied against efforts to clean homeless encampments.

28:30

Let me stop right there because I

28:32

had a deep thought last night. I

28:35

saw in the news that there

28:37

is a new homeless encampment in

28:39

Minneapolis. It's whack-a-mole.

28:41

Wherever you clear them out, they spring up.

28:45

And the Channel 5 people

28:47

were interviewing the residents of

28:49

the neighborhood. It's on 5th

28:51

Street and I'm sorry, I don't know what

28:53

the cross section is. Here's

28:57

what I would do for those people.

28:59

Seriously, I hope one of them is

29:01

a listener which seems unlikely in urban

29:03

Minneapolis, but maybe they are. All

29:06

the neighbors should get together and

29:09

create a very,

29:11

get the help of a lawyer and

29:15

say you're not paying your property

29:17

taxes until, and then

29:20

give them a date that you want

29:22

this homeless camp cleaned

29:24

up and submit that to

29:26

the city council. And if you get

29:29

enough people who subscribe to

29:31

the idea we're not paying our

29:33

property taxes, they can't put

29:35

them all in jail. And then have the

29:37

lawyer have provisions

29:39

in the letter saying, and when

29:42

we resume paying property taxes, there

29:44

will be no penalty for those

29:46

that we did not pay. And

29:50

fight fire with fire here, people.

29:53

You got an inadequate, incompetent city council.

29:55

You got an incompetent mayor. The city's

29:57

going down. down the drains, hit them

30:00

where it hurts, take away the money

30:02

they use to play their BS games.

30:04

And you know how you could get

30:06

away with it? I just

30:08

read recently that because

30:10

of the lack of businesses providing

30:12

that, the property taxes have gone

30:14

up significantly because of that. You

30:16

got to get everybody on the

30:18

block to do it. Everybody.

30:22

I can't imagine you'd have any trouble with

30:24

that. Yes, Ken. Retaliation.

30:26

What happened in St. Paul when a block of people

30:29

didn't want curb and gutter in front of their

30:31

houses? They won. After

30:34

how many years of fighting and being ignored

30:36

and crapped upon by the city?

30:38

They didn't try the anti-property tax route. I'm

30:41

telling you, tell the city, our

30:44

money, our particular chunk

30:46

of money here is drying up until you

30:48

take care of this. Give them a date

30:50

and then make sure you also have a

30:53

provision that says that we're not paying up

30:55

what we didn't pay while you're lollygagging.

30:59

I absolutely love your idea, but I

31:01

wouldn't be on board. Well

31:04

that's because you're a word

31:06

I can't say. Well, I

31:09

agree with you, but what Ken's

31:11

trying to say is they own, they have

31:13

the hammer. Yeah, and not if you get

31:15

enough people they don't. All

31:17

that means to me is it's an imminent

31:19

domain on the entire block. That's

31:22

what I see happening. I see payback

31:24

and retaliation. You

31:27

big baby. Plus my taxes come right

31:29

out of my mortgage. I

31:32

know I am, but I've

31:35

received threatening letters from not only

31:37

the IRS, but the Minnesota Department.

31:40

Not to file, you know, what's it called?

31:43

It's not to file on, but Kenny

31:45

makes a good point. I

31:47

wonder how many people don't have their

31:50

taxes tied in with their mortgage. I

31:53

do not. Well, I know you don't, but I'm

31:55

wondering if how many are in that group. I

31:59

have no idea. I'm good

32:01

with the government. I want to keep it

32:03

that way. We

32:07

good right now. You're good with the

32:09

government. I don't owe

32:11

them anything is what I'm saying. We're up and

32:13

up. Can I keep a

32:15

low profile? Back

32:18

to UCLA Medical School in the speech,

32:20

the students were forced to hear by

32:22

Tiny Garcia. She's a

32:25

crackpot. Let

32:27

me turn the page and get you the rest of her stuff.

32:30

Not only are our bodies

32:32

considered unclean and public, not

32:35

only are our lives criminalized for being

32:37

outside without a roof, but

32:39

poli-trixters used

32:41

us for their campaign, she said. Gray

32:44

Garcia went on to note that California spent

32:46

$30 million on the removal of our houseless

32:49

bodies and asked

32:51

students to think about how many

32:53

homes could be built with that

32:55

money, even in these inflated, ridiculous

32:57

prices of commodified mama earth. At

33:01

another point during the lecture, Gray Garcia

33:03

said to have called modern medicine white

33:06

science and

33:08

said they were in what the

33:10

settlers call Los Angeles. In

33:13

other instances, the advocate for the homeless

33:16

led students in chance of free, free

33:18

Palestine. And when one

33:20

student refused to stand during a

33:23

second pagan prayer, a non-identified UCLA

33:25

faculty member asked for the pupils

33:27

name, sparking concerns they

33:30

could face repercussions, the Jewish

33:32

faculty resilient group complaint said,

33:35

I was deeply offended and disgusted.

33:38

Somebody who witnessed the event told

33:40

Fox News calling it crazy. I

33:42

think even probably all students who stood up

33:45

a good number of felt

33:47

unsettled regardless of your

33:49

religious persuasion. The

33:54

Jewish faculty group said the lecture should

33:56

never have taken place. ILC

34:00

managed to occur in campus notwithstanding

34:02

efforts to avoid it, the immediate

34:04

obligation of all administrative staff should

34:06

have been to end it immediately

34:08

and to support the students who

34:10

have been mistreated, the

34:12

professors wrote to the chancellor, Jean

34:15

Block. Instead, the staff

34:17

acted exactly to the contrary of

34:19

their responsibilities. The staff

34:22

members urged Block to put

34:24

an end to anti-Semitism and

34:26

political indoctrination that

34:28

is continuing to take place at

34:30

the UCLA David Geffen School of

34:33

Medicine. So Geffen popped for their

34:35

medical school. The

34:37

university is already facing a federal probe

34:39

into anti-Semitic acts that have occurred in

34:41

the school and the Jewish faculty group

34:43

noted in their letter. Geffen, by the

34:45

way, is a Jew. He

34:47

could take away his money. See,

34:50

I'm all for the money part. Kenny doesn't want

34:52

it. He wants to stand the good graces of

34:54

the city council. The

34:56

university is already facing a federal

34:59

probe into anti-Semitic acts that have

35:01

occurred at the school and the Jewish faculty

35:03

group noted in their letter that Gray Garcia

35:05

once came to campus wearing

35:08

a terrorist themed costume.

35:12

On social media, she claims that

35:14

the Hamas October 7 attack on

35:16

Israel was justified. As

35:21

we hold our relatives in occupied Palestine

35:23

and all of Mama Earth in prayer

35:26

and love, we need to make connection,

35:28

she said. For us,

35:30

houseless, indigenous, swept, evicted

35:32

people. We are

35:35

not separate from this struggle. We

35:37

suffer from the same settler

35:39

colonial terror. The

35:42

failed academy has really jumped all

35:44

over that settler colonialism bit.

35:50

On November 1, she wrote, when

35:52

you resist after decades of relentless

35:54

policing, killing and terrorizing, that's not

35:57

terrorism, that's justice. Meanwhile,

35:59

the school's. There's also come under

36:01

fire for it's heels curriculum. Under

36:04

which this is where we no longer have

36:06

a country and much less go to the

36:08

Doctor. The

36:10

Heels curriculum under which the

36:12

entire first year medical school

36:14

focuses on structural racism, unhealthy

36:16

equity, It

36:19

was laughable. Designed. To

36:21

empower students who become physicians and

36:24

committed to human is secure. Will

36:26

are not going to become very

36:28

good physicians because what you have

36:30

built into that kind of be

36:32

as is advancement not a meritocracy.

36:34

Now we'll have advancement based on

36:36

equity Er doctor that doesn't know.

36:39

Sleep. So

36:42

that's what's happening at U C

36:44

L. A lovely campus. I spent

36:46

time. They're beautiful. Well

36:50

see, that's a good point. You know mutant

36:52

talked about our trim Chris Reverend missing a

36:54

kidney? Do you think he wants he? go

36:56

on. Any of these people think he wants

36:59

the best black doctor or he wants the

37:01

best doctor operating on him. He's

37:04

a he wants. He.

37:06

Wants the Best Doctor is a

37:08

key was of female doctor who

37:10

specializes in Hamas know. He

37:13

would reject the it is it. Does he

37:15

want a doctor who specializes in the. Urinary.

37:18

Tract. Was

37:21

as good. Nice. Okay did

37:23

you say use Cla had

37:25

a comeback for this show.

37:27

Sissies of them to Jewish

37:29

faculty. ever come back to

37:31

school has not given a

37:33

comeback. Because as

37:35

you noted, none of this has anything to

37:37

do with medicine. Not nuts will either is

37:39

the Heels program. Which

37:42

they've come under fire for which

37:44

is Ill as go back to

37:46

the Heels programs a to Yale

37:48

as their acronym for or. against

37:51

the are you saying on the

37:53

all married in a year to

37:55

the acronym for structural racism unhealthy

37:58

equity That's

38:01

not medicine. No. That's

38:03

racism and equity. I

38:07

was trying to come up with something

38:10

more outrageous than this that maybe we

38:12

could book a tour of the failed

38:14

academies, much like the yo-yo guy used

38:16

to get on TV stations. I

38:19

want to come up with some kind of

38:21

outrageous premise and see if we could get

38:23

a tour booked. And I was thinking along

38:26

the lines of all

38:28

white people should be arrested and put

38:31

in camps and something, you know, just

38:33

stupid and outrageous. But

38:35

I don't know if I could beat this lady. I

38:38

mean, this is way out there

38:40

on the outrage limb. She's

38:43

got you defeated, especially in her terrorist

38:46

costume. Yeah, and she will not show

38:48

her face in public. And

38:51

she's dressed up like an idiot in the

38:53

speech. She's got her face covered. She's got

38:55

dark glasses on her face. Why

38:58

do they pay her five grand? When

39:04

you read it, she's the kind of person, you know,

39:06

40 years ago, we'd have gone, oh, isn't that cute?

39:08

A terrorist. But she wouldn't be

39:10

speaking at UCLA's medical school. No, right. No, at

39:13

medical school. Yeah, you'd be at

39:15

the twitch farm where she belonged. We

39:18

don't have a country. But

39:21

one of these days, we're going to have a

39:24

we're going to have a 70 degree Friday. Is

39:28

that right? And when we do that, openers going

39:31

to be brought to you by precision garage door

39:33

of the Twin Cities in Western Wisconsin. Fantastic.

39:41

So let me let me cross it, cross that off. OK.

39:45

This is our work. Stop. They

39:51

keep hitting buttons and they'll never

39:54

work. fired

40:00

up go sujure. I'm shocked by that revelation.

40:03

Hey, I got a great email actually

40:05

handed directly from the mayor himself about

40:08

Keller Tax Service from David. This

40:10

is great. I hope

40:12

this gets to Mr. Reavers before Linda's last

40:14

spot. She just informed me that I was

40:18

Joe, hello. She

40:21

just informed me that I was her longest distance

40:25

client last year. Linda

40:27

worked with me and got my taxes done

40:29

while I was living in the Philippines. What

40:32

a great service provided and it's

40:34

because of being an avid listener

40:37

that I found Keller Tax Service.

40:39

Alright, little Philippines. First of all,

40:41

we've got a listener in the

40:43

Philippines. That's fantastic alone. Paul's letter

40:45

to the Philippines. And then of

40:47

course, it speaks

40:49

to that point that Linda mentioned or said to

40:51

me earlier in the campaign, just because

40:54

you don't live in Minnesota doesn't mean she can't take

40:56

care of you. If she handles all types of returns

40:58

for all types of people, filing single, married, as

41:00

a business, whatever, she'll take care of you. In

41:02

fact, I just had a phone call with her

41:05

last night about some

41:07

upcoming changes the Reavers household needs to

41:09

make in 2024. Anyway, is she gonna

41:11

represent you or represent your wife? Ewwww!

41:15

She's not that kind of lawyer. She might

41:17

pick my better half. But

41:20

go online to her website kellertaxservice.com. It's

41:22

it's crunch time, ladies and gentlemen. Tax

41:24

Day is Monday. So if

41:26

you can book that appointment, if maybe if you

41:28

file an extension, still reach out

41:31

to her because I know she's really busy right

41:33

now, but she's still willing to help all of

41:35

you G-Lers and she's also extremely thankful for all

41:37

of you that have reached out. She wanted me

41:39

to thank John and Kenny personally on this ad

41:41

as well. But go on her website

41:43

and make sure you let Linda know that you

41:45

heard about her here on the GarageLogic podcast.

41:48

Thank you, Linda. How come foghorn is the

41:50

only thing that works? I

41:52

heard that. Reavers? Yes, sir.

41:54

If my roommate drove off a

41:56

cliff on purpose, what could happen?

42:00

She would blame it on me because

42:02

I didn't tell her not to. Yeah,

42:04

essentially what my conversation was yesterday at

42:07

my home. Yeah. So why

42:09

didn't you tell me? It's always my fault. Yeah, she

42:11

almost pointed the wheel of santo doing Jesse. I don't

42:13

know why don't you tell me why I didn't take

42:15

out enough money last year. Why didn't you tell me

42:17

about the clip? Yeah. I didn't know

42:19

the other clip that I drove off it. Here's

42:22

John. Hi. My husband's accepting

42:24

the blame for thousands of

42:26

years. I had my car

42:28

on ridiculous. I'm on

42:32

the I'm on the I'm on the off the

42:34

grid. Well

42:37

I got news for you. You moron. You

42:39

drive a car with your require electricity. You're

42:42

on the grid. Plug it in. That's

42:44

right. Here's John. Why don't

42:47

you go tell me what's up

42:49

by the foam? You know, John.

42:52

Hi. Yes. Yes.

42:55

And my name is brought to you by North

42:57

American Banking Company breaking news this morning. We'll try

42:59

to fill in some details here with what I've

43:02

been able to find. Minne Tonka police have confirmed

43:04

an incident at the intersection of East Crestwood Drive

43:06

and Mayview terrace. Officers

43:08

are still on the scene at this time.

43:11

Now Care 11 reports and

43:13

Edina ambulance arrived at HCMC

43:15

and went to the emergency

43:17

entrance. We don't have any word

43:19

on who may be brought to the hospital. There

43:22

is at least one Channel

43:25

9, one news source that

43:27

is reporting that two officers were hit

43:29

by gunfire, one in the hand taken

43:32

to the hospital and the other not

43:34

requiring a trip to the hospital. And

43:37

there isn't, there's an unofficial word

43:39

on the perpetrator of all this, what

43:41

may be happening or may have already

43:44

happened to that perpetrator. So I guess

43:46

as soon as we get some official

43:48

confirmation of any of that, we will

43:50

let you know. Other

43:52

news starting this weekend, light rail riders

43:55

will have fewer cars to pick from

43:57

on their trains, Metro Transit. Metro

44:00

Transit says the light rail will be

44:02

moving to a two-car train system during

44:05

weekends in an effort to improve the

44:07

longevity of train cars and reduce maintenance

44:09

costs. Chief Operating Officer Brian

44:11

Funk calls it right-sizing, saying with

44:13

the number of current riders Metro

44:15

Transit feels a two-car operation would

44:17

fit fine. During a

44:20

Metropolitan Council meeting this week, Funk shared the

44:22

plan, getting support from Met Council members. He

44:25

also broke down rider data. The

44:27

trip is up this year compared to last year. The

44:29

green line is down, though, 21 percent in riders compared

44:31

to 2019 and 33 percent on

44:34

the blue line compared to 2019. This

44:37

is not the first time Metro Transit

44:39

has tested a two-car train operation. In

44:42

2022, it made the move in an

44:44

effort to address rider safety. This

44:46

time around, while that's not the main

44:48

focus, Funk says the fewer cars will

44:51

help the agency's new onboard agent program,

44:53

where Metro Transit reps are on the

44:55

train checking for tickets and

44:57

interacting with riders. Residents

45:01

of the Phillips West neighborhood in Minneapolis are

45:03

asking city leaders to remove that recently erected

45:05

homeless encampment you were talking about. That's the

45:07

area I'm talking about. Don't

45:09

pay your taxes. Neighbors

45:12

in Minneapolis police said a new homeless encampment was

45:14

set up March 27th in the 2900

45:17

block of Fifth Avenue South in Minneapolis, just

45:20

north of East Lake Street. One

45:22

neighbor told our five eyewitness news friends

45:24

that residents in the area sent a

45:26

letter to the mayor, Jacob Fry, MPD

45:29

Chief Brian O'Hara, and the entire city

45:31

council asking them to take action and

45:34

remove the encampment. The neighborhood resident said,

45:36

we're scared out of our minds. I've

45:38

had people on my porch at 2

45:40

a.m. There's needles on the ground. There's

45:42

broken glass everywhere, and we have a ton of

45:44

kids that live on this block. MPD

45:46

records showed that since the encampment was set

45:48

up about two weeks ago, there have been

45:51

more than a dozen calls to the property,

45:53

including a stabbing, a drug overdose, and an

45:55

explosion. Minneapolis City Council member

45:57

Latresha Vito says the city should move to

45:59

close down. the encampment, she said, quote,

46:01

I mean, it's got to be removed.

46:03

We can't allow these to keep happening.

46:05

And yes, we have a problem where

46:07

we clear one out and one goes

46:09

back in, but we've got to keep

46:11

doing it until we figure it out.

46:13

An outrage. Star

46:17

Tribunal reporting with a vote looming

46:19

this week to reconsider Minneapolis' new

46:21

rideshare minimum wage law. City Council

46:23

President Elliot Payne and Council Member

46:25

Katie Cashman and Orin Chaudhury said

46:27

they will seek to push

46:29

back the ordinance's effective aid by two months

46:31

to delight. I had these ideas start in

46:33

the first place. Council

46:37

Members say the extra months would then allow

46:39

them to collaborate with state lawmakers and provide

46:41

more time for new rideshare startups looking to

46:43

enter into the metro market. Multiple

46:45

companies have expressed interest in operating in the

46:47

Twin Cities to fill the gaps that would

46:50

be left by Uber and Lyft, which have

46:52

pledged to leave the city once the ordinance

46:54

takes effect. These rideshare ordinance

46:56

passed last month over Jacob Fry, the

46:58

mayor's veto, has caused

47:03

increasing consternation among business groups and

47:05

disability and senior advocates as its

47:07

start date of May 1st nears.

47:10

Council Member Andrea Jenkins, who had voted

47:13

for the ordinance, has asked the council

47:15

to reconsider the ordinance at its meeting

47:17

tomorrow. Remember the question

47:19

that you asked the group yesterday, I

47:22

believe, before the program started? I

47:25

don't remember. Is the council smart enough to

47:28

have pulled this off to give this? That

47:31

pretty much answers your question, doesn't it? They weren't

47:34

smart enough to do that. I thought maybe they

47:36

disbanded Lyft and Uber to

47:39

accommodate their friends. No, they're not

47:42

smart enough. No, no, no, no, they are

47:44

not. They are developing a habit,

47:46

though, aren't they, of kicking things down the

47:48

road when they can't decide which one. They're

47:50

terribly incompetent. They have never done anything in

47:52

their life except be an activist. They're being

47:55

way over their head. The city's going to

47:57

pot. Hey, thinking is hard. Come On, man.

48:00

You know if you're a U

48:02

C L, a medical student and

48:05

year in class is cellular structures

48:07

or something does of doctor would

48:09

need to know in your ear

48:12

Neighboring seat made is a so

48:14

called marginalized from the marginalized world

48:17

since oh. What?

48:19

Would equity have to do whether

48:21

you grasp the concept of the

48:23

cellular structure? You

48:26

either you either grass fed or

48:28

you don't If the person who

48:30

doesn't grasp that is going to

48:32

continue to be advance based on

48:34

equity doesn't. That by definition result

48:37

in someone who won't know how

48:39

to be a doctor? Yes, Okay

48:41

as scary. As

48:43

far. As

48:47

a sinner much I'm sorry. No way I

48:49

lost so. Many. Screen

48:51

Cap was based started corpus taking

48:53

a new tack to combat theft.

48:55

it self checkout stations. They're adding

48:57

a new technology alexis in this

48:59

in action and a different story

49:01

as a self checkout registers that

49:04

uses cameras to detect items on

49:06

scanners alerting shoppers who leave anything

49:08

on scanned. The technology is called

49:10

true Scan. It's be rolled out

49:12

to all stores this year. It

49:14

could help target track shoppers who

49:16

repeatedly feel the scan items even

49:18

after being prompted. Shoppers would get

49:20

audio. And visual cues when they don't

49:22

scan items in. The technology has been

49:24

piloted com or in some Targets. in

49:27

recent months. The store announced another change

49:29

a couple weeks ago concerning self checkout

49:31

are starting. Now you can only have

49:33

ten products at the self checkout registers.

49:36

The company says it will open more

49:38

traditional lanes that are staffed by employees,

49:40

so I get really sleepy during the

49:42

story, but I did try to make

49:45

my way through it. Is there anything

49:47

in a story about the cost of

49:49

hiring an employee? Versus the

49:51

cost of this technology. because

49:54

i like haven't somebody there to walk

49:56

on over at me to help a

49:58

guy out that lately be to a good

50:00

question. How much time do I have as

50:03

a guy who wants to go through the

50:05

day paying cash for things

50:07

gas and what have you just be a

50:09

cash guy and I pay my bills with

50:12

a check that I put in the mail

50:14

how much longer do I got? Not much.

50:17

I think it was over five

50:19

years ago. Let

50:22

me tell you a little story

50:24

so it's Saturday morning 11 a.m.

50:26

I stroll into Fleet Farm to

50:28

get a just one item a

50:30

bag of coffee I need I just need some

50:33

coffee where I go and I

50:35

go to Fleet Farm I have reasons

50:37

for going there I get in there

50:39

and every single register has a line

50:41

going around the block and I knew

50:43

it was gonna be 30 minutes

50:46

I went to the self-checkout and I was

50:48

in and out of that store in

50:51

under five minutes it was amazing.

50:54

I love the self-checkout. The self-checkout would have thrown

50:56

me I have done it once and I needed

50:58

a great deal of help. It

51:01

talks you through it. I just

51:03

step up to it. I had a human talking

51:05

me through it. I mean

51:07

my point is I start making mistakes right

51:09

off the bat and the machine fixes it

51:11

for me and tells me what to do.

51:13

Says no dummy scan it first. The worst

51:15

part is when you have the receipt and

51:18

then you've got the person at the end

51:20

before you can get back out to the

51:22

parking lot where you have to do the

51:24

list of shame and they kind

51:26

of go through the list like, huh, you

51:28

bought some of these. Well how did you pay for the

51:30

coffee? You really think you need Velveeta?

51:34

How did you pay for the coffee? The plastic cart?

51:38

The way the rest of America does.

51:40

Poop on that. I'm not doing that.

51:42

Here's my money. Take it or leave

51:44

it. You may never be able

51:47

to shop again pretty soon. I don't shop

51:49

a great deal. I don't shop a great

51:51

deal. I know really. Seriously. I've

51:54

noticed a trend where I'm

51:57

somewhat frowned upon for producing cash.

52:00

No matter what store I'm in. Oh, yeah, you're making that

52:02

person do bad. It's not that I'm frowned upon. It's really,

52:05

you're that guy, you know? Joe, it's not

52:07

just the stores though. You can't get a

52:09

turkey sandwich at the state fair with cash.

52:11

Well, I won't get one then. It's true.

52:13

You don't know what you're missing. I've had

52:15

them. I've had them before. Don't they still

52:17

take your cash? No. Why? No cash. That

52:19

was always the great reason we had to

52:21

be fair, the cash, you know? With them,

52:23

I think it's because they got robbed of

52:26

thousands and thousands of dollars a few years

52:28

ago. That's right. They had a big... I'll

52:31

play up to your morons. Was he sitting in the beer

52:33

guys' hand? Yeah. Yeah.

52:35

Remember when at the fair we'd get

52:37

a big box full of those turkey

52:39

sandwiches in the morning in the back

52:41

room? Yeah. I don't remember that. You

52:43

don't? Because by the time I arrived,

52:45

I'm sure they were all eaten. You

52:48

understand how that works though. When you're

52:50

a dealer and you're selling something that

52:52

you want the general public, you give

52:54

out free samples. And then

52:56

pretty soon, the public is calling you

52:59

at three in the morning, needing an

53:01

apple. I mean another turkey sandwich. I

53:04

always take a break on that note. The

53:06

two owners of that turkey to go... Are

53:08

they Tom? Is it Tom? ...Drew and... I

53:11

forget the other guy's name. They were the

53:13

first people to hire Matthew in

53:15

the real estate industry. He

53:18

had the check locks in North Minneapolis. Oh

53:20

boy. Yeah. They were no

53:22

dummies. And he went once with

53:24

my wife and my

53:27

wife said, if anybody asks you what you're

53:29

doing here, tell them you're here to buy

53:31

drugs. And they'll leave

53:33

you alone. Let's take

53:35

a break. That's actually brilliant. Really smart.

53:38

I'm here to smart one. Yeah. All right. Here we

53:40

go. Rook, what do you got? Here we go. If

53:42

you need to escape, then

I love it when I get SeafoamWorks

related emails from Geeellers who have used

55:47

it for the very first time with

55:49

wonderful results. That happened this week with

Mark from the east side of 2003 Cadillac Escalade. 305,000

55:54

on that thing and the engine had Been

present. Extraneous noises have simply

56:10

disappeared. Mark now use the sea

56:12

foam and all of his vehicles

56:14

and that's what I'm talking about.

56:16

He always puts you gotta do.

56:19

What? Everybody else does a what we

56:21

do. We use it as regular preventive

56:23

maintenance so things don't get all Radley

56:25

a noisy and extraneous and you don't

56:28

have to bring it to a mechanic

56:30

and know that he's mocking you behind

56:32

your back. And the great thing? as

56:34

you find it everywhere. it's more common

56:37

than Snickers Bars. A local company with

56:39

a global reach and a wonderful product

56:41

and world. A bad as sea foam.

56:45

We. Go back to John. And

56:49

we like I was sizes looking at

56:51

the Minnetonka coverage What we have now

56:53

the latest on that story ah tell

56:55

Five reporting multiple sources confirming to Hennepin

56:58

County deputies expected to survive after being

57:00

shot while executing the word or two

57:02

deputies brought to aid Cmc with non

57:04

life threatening injuries in that that so

57:07

we have. They're still have some unseen

57:09

a scene and within the next.looks like

57:11

twenty minutes or so they planned to

57:13

hold a press conference so much as

57:16

as perpetrators of. Dead. That's

57:18

okay, you're that yes sir. Of fact that

57:20

saw that suggests I haven't seen it reply

57:22

of jewelry I was looking to I've not

57:24

seen a job. Somewhere, but

57:26

we should know more once you know what

57:28

was it? Flex: They came on a couple

57:30

weeks ago talking about. A rise

57:33

in our you know that that

57:35

the threats in their actions against

57:37

police officers and it doesn't make

57:39

any difference where you are. No,

57:41

that's exactly what I was just

57:43

about to say. Speaking Minnetonka, Burnsville,

57:45

Minn Target at themselves, Country to

57:48

the cameras everywhere and it's always

57:50

these domestic. the decline of moral

57:52

and ethical integrity is eating away

57:54

at our souls. We also have

57:56

had.recent one up the other day

57:58

suicide, murder suicides. A

58:00

horrible one appeared two days ago with two

58:03

children involved. With the kids in the car.

58:05

Mother and two children and it's the third

58:07

one I think in four weeks or something

58:09

like that in the Metro. Anyway,

58:13

on to other news, the consumer price index

58:16

accelerated at a faster than expected pace in

58:18

March. That pushed inflation higher

58:20

and likely dashes any hopes that the

58:22

Federal Reserve will be able to cut

58:24

interest rates anytime soon. The

58:26

consumer price index, a measure of goods

58:28

and services costs across the economy, rose

58:30

0.4% for the month or 0.3 point higher than

58:32

in February. Labor

58:36

Department Bureau of Labor Statistics reporting that

58:38

this morning. The Dow Jones

58:40

had been looking at a 0.3% gain. Food

58:44

prices were a mixed bag, some going up

58:47

slightly and some falling slightly. The measure for

58:49

meat, fish, poultry and eggs

58:51

climbed 0.9%. Water

58:54

fell 5%, cereal and bakery products declined 0.9%.

58:58

Food away from home, which would be restaurants of course,

59:01

increased 0.3%. Doesn't

59:04

eggs yesterday, Aldi was $2.09. That's

59:07

good. That's good,

59:09

yeah. It was 169

59:12

before whatever. Speaking of inflation, I

59:15

have been waiting to place that audio of

59:17

your president. He was being

59:19

interviewed yesterday. I don't recognize the journalist

59:21

who was interviewing him in a sit

59:23

down. He was talking about

59:25

the Second Amendment. From

59:28

the very beginning, I used to teach the Second Amendment

59:30

in law school. From the very

59:32

beginning, there were limitations. You couldn't own a cannon. You

59:35

could own a rifle or gun, but there

59:37

were certain things you couldn't. They

59:40

weren't weapons of war. He

59:43

did not fact check. He did not teach, but

59:45

you could not own a cannon. He's

59:50

Walter Mitty. He's

59:55

whatever he wants to be. The latest was

59:57

he said his family were watermen. in,

1:00:00

in, in Baltimore. Yeah. Uh,

1:00:02

so that even more greatly affected him

1:00:05

because of the bridge collision. The guy

1:00:07

is a second. I want to walk

1:00:09

it. He's Walter Mitty driving around town.

1:00:11

He thinks he's whatever he is. He's

1:00:13

been about 15 different. That's a great

1:00:16

life. He's just been all

1:00:18

over the place. James

1:00:20

Thurber invented Joe Biden. And

1:00:24

because he's an idiot, it's not even

1:00:26

worth responding to him when he says

1:00:29

stupid things like that. I mean, is

1:00:31

it even, why

1:00:33

wouldn't we even want to correct him? You know,

1:00:35

if he's in a brewery, he comes from a

1:00:37

long line of brewers, you know? And if he's

1:00:39

at a car manufacturing

1:00:41

plant, he made cars. He

1:00:44

worked in a car plant. We use that

1:00:46

as his Corvette. Does he think

1:00:48

we can get weapons of war as the

1:00:50

general? You have a cannon. I

1:00:52

had a cannon, but it was a small cannon.

1:00:55

I've got this A-10 airplane that I like to

1:00:57

fly around and blast tanks out of the, you

1:01:00

know, you can have that. But see the

1:01:02

48 hour rule, 48 hour rule

1:01:04

really prevents you from owning say a tank.

1:01:06

Right. They're tough to, they're tough to have

1:01:08

in a driveway. Where am I going to

1:01:11

park an A-10 Warthog? That's right.

1:01:13

I mean, she's going to notice that. You're going

1:01:15

to notice that. It's hard to say. That thing's

1:01:17

been around here forever. You

1:01:20

just hang the branches off it like they used to hide. I

1:01:23

don't see anything. I don't see anything. What are you talking

1:01:25

about? In a decision that both

1:01:27

sides say may have an effect on balloting

1:01:29

in November, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled yesterday

1:01:32

160 year old near

1:01:34

total abortion ban still on the books in

1:01:36

the state is enforceable. A decision that adds

1:01:38

the state to the growing list of places

1:01:40

where abortion care is effectively banned. The

1:01:42

ruling allows an 1864 law

1:01:45

in Arizona to stand that made abortion a

1:01:47

felony punishable by two to five years in

1:01:49

prison for anyone who performs one or helps

1:01:51

a woman get one. The law, which

1:01:53

was codified in 1901 and again in 1913, outlaws abortion from

1:01:55

the moment

1:01:58

of conception, but in one exception that

1:02:01

is to save the woman's life. United

1:02:05

States Postal Service looking to again raise the price

1:02:07

of stamps. Anybody who knows how much a stamp

1:02:09

costs right now? I think it's 55. I just

1:02:11

bought $40. I don't know what it is. $40

1:02:17

last week. Right now it's 68 cents. They

1:02:19

wanted to go to 77. They want to go 73

1:02:23

is what I said. 73 I'll take

1:02:25

it. No, that's not a good value.

1:02:27

Still a miracle. If the price hike

1:02:29

is approved, the new price would take

1:02:31

effect in July. Other proposed changes include

1:02:33

raising the cost of domestic postcards from 53

1:02:35

to 56% and

1:02:38

increasing international postcard prices from $1.55 to $1.65. In

1:02:40

a statement,

1:02:43

the US Postal Service said the price

1:02:45

adjustments are needed to achieve financial stability

1:02:47

and that the USPS prices remain among

1:02:49

the most affordable in the world. Stamp

1:02:51

prices have increased by 36% since 2019

1:02:53

when they

1:02:56

cost 50 cents. The

1:02:59

audience for the NCAA men's basketball championship

1:03:01

ticked up from last year's low for

1:03:03

the first time, but for the first

1:03:05

time the men's game drew a

1:03:07

smaller TV crowd than the women's final. Connecticut's

1:03:10

75-60 victory over

1:03:12

Purdue averaged 14.82 million

1:03:15

viewers. The Sunday's women's championship game

1:03:17

brought in 18.87 million viewers. So

1:03:19

about 4 million more for

1:03:23

the women's game. The women's final boasted

1:03:25

a 90% increase over the 9.92 million

1:03:29

who tuned in for the 2023 game.

1:03:34

Sometimes getting your art displayed at one of

1:03:36

Europe's finer museums is just a matter of

1:03:39

hanging it there yourself. On Monday, a

1:03:42

Pinafak der Madern in Munich

1:03:44

reported a reverse heist of sorts.

1:03:47

While it was closed to the public, an

1:03:49

employee hung one of his own paintings among

1:03:51

the museum's modern

1:03:54

art collection. The 51-year-old

1:03:56

employee was helping to install an

1:03:58

architecture exhibit on philanthropy. that opened

1:04:00

recently when he took a

1:04:02

detour to the modern art floor to make

1:04:04

the addition according to the museum. Tina Naylor

1:04:07

is a museum spokeswoman. She said he was

1:04:09

carrying tools and he was

1:04:11

totally unnoticed. As a technician he was able

1:04:13

to move around all areas of the building

1:04:15

outside of opening hours. Unfortunately

1:04:17

for the worker the ruse was discovered. The

1:04:19

painting was removed from the wall. It was

1:04:22

not clear how long the painting had hung

1:04:24

unnoticed. The museum said the artwork was about

1:04:26

45 inches wide and 25 inches

1:04:28

in length but it did not say what

1:04:30

it depicted or provide any detail. Oh you

1:04:32

know it was ding-ding too. But

1:04:35

the workers artistic background. Fire truck.

1:04:37

Right. Did see him and the

1:04:39

worker agreed to part ways. The

1:04:41

man a well-respected employee that the

1:04:43

museum did not identify was also

1:04:45

banned from visiting his old workplace.

1:04:48

Adding to the aspiring artist troubles the

1:04:50

police said on Wednesday that they were

1:04:53

investigating him for property damage. For

1:04:55

drilling two small holes in the museum

1:04:57

wall. Oh. They hung up the painting.

1:04:59

Blame. Did you guys see

1:05:01

Road Show on Monday night? No.

1:05:04

She paid 15 bucks at

1:05:06

the Poor People's store worth over a hundred

1:05:08

thousand. What'd she get? Yeah I don't know

1:05:10

who it was. I mean a painting? Yeah

1:05:13

a painting. Yeah. The work, here's

1:05:15

the secret and I tried to explain this to

1:05:17

the roommate. The more you hate

1:05:19

a painting because you think you could

1:05:22

stick a brush in your butt and

1:05:24

do it yourself that's the

1:05:26

painting to buy. That's what that

1:05:28

works. Yeah. That's always how it

1:05:31

works. This is called butt art

1:05:33

by Kenneth Olman. John thank you. This

1:05:37

is called the clips. Say

1:05:41

my garage door guy is the whole

1:05:44

family. Precision garage door of the Twin

1:05:46

Cities in western Wisconsin. Best

1:05:48

part? Well there's two best parts. Oh

1:05:51

three. Don't charge more for

1:05:53

weekends. Usually got everything they need

1:05:55

so they don't have to make the run back to

1:05:57

the shop and they're

1:05:59

an when it comes to an entirely

1:06:01

new door in the event you need one.

1:06:04

In the meantime, they keep your current door running

1:06:06

great. They do the rollers in the springs and

1:06:08

the app that connect your opener to

1:06:10

your car and all this stuff I can't do, so

1:06:12

they do it. They can

1:06:14

do anything and they do it when they're

1:06:17

there. They'll text you when they're on their

1:06:19

way. They wanna complete it on day one.

1:06:22

Their time is spoken for and

1:06:24

your time is spoken for. So

1:06:26

let's get this baby done and

1:06:28

done correctly. They do great work.

1:06:30

They're gonna bring us the opener in the event

1:06:33

we have one. Not this Friday,

1:06:35

it doesn't look like this Friday. Precision

1:06:37

1:06:39

Western Wisconsin, it said, gee, y'all are

1:06:41

1:07:00

I want this fixed. You

1:07:10

want a lot of things. You

1:07:12

ain't getting them. People in hella want

1:07:15

ice water. Matthew? People up

1:07:17

to play in the water. Oh,

1:07:19

boy. People in hella want ice water. I

1:07:21

never heard that one. Oh,

1:07:28

yeah. I

1:07:30

have an assignment for G.Eller's. Okay.

1:07:33

Because the story is way too long and I would also

1:07:35

like you to see if you can get this guy to

1:07:37

join us. His

1:07:39

name is Yuri Berliner. U-R-I

1:07:44

Berliner, like he's from Berlin. He's in

1:07:46

I-N-B-O-L-N-A. He's a

1:07:48

business editor at NPR. He

1:07:51

looks a little bit like, who

1:07:53

was the chef? Anthony

1:07:55

Bourdain. He looks a little bit like

1:07:58

Anthony Bourdain. He does. Anthony Lee. And

1:08:00

a cross between Tony Lee and Anthony Bourdain. Wow.

1:08:03

So, G. Eller's, I wanted to look

1:08:05

up this story. You can get it

1:08:07

on the Barry Weiss site called The

1:08:09

Free Press. And it's the story of

1:08:12

an editor at NPR who's really coming

1:08:14

clean. And he

1:08:16

said, I've been at NPR for 25 years. Here's

1:08:19

how we lost America's trust. And

1:08:22

he goes on, it's 15 pages long. And

1:08:26

I have not completed it. But

1:08:29

he is lamenting the

1:08:31

idea that NPR, which we

1:08:34

all know, G. Eller's all know, is

1:08:37

no longer has an audience that

1:08:40

reflects GL,

1:08:43

much less much of America, the

1:08:45

audience they have or the coastal

1:08:48

elites. That's this guy telling you this,

1:08:50

that they have no conservative ideology,

1:08:53

no conservative outlook. And

1:08:58

he said there, the rise of

1:09:00

advocacy within NPR took off

1:09:02

with Donald Trump. His

1:09:08

election was greeted at NPR

1:09:10

with a mixture of disbelief,

1:09:12

anger, and despair. And

1:09:17

it goes on to tell

1:09:19

us everything that we've probably

1:09:21

all presumed about NPR. But

1:09:23

here's a fellow who's on the inside,

1:09:26

has been for a long time. And

1:09:28

I would think it took some chutzpah

1:09:30

on his part to do this.

1:09:32

I can't imagine he'll even

1:09:34

survive his job because these

1:09:37

people will show their true colors

1:09:40

and probably get rid of him. And

1:09:43

which would be a shame because he's decided

1:09:45

to come clean. But as I say, I

1:09:47

think it's an assignment for

1:09:49

G. Eller's to go

1:09:52

to the Barry Weiss Free Press site

1:09:55

and read this piece. His name

1:09:57

is Yuri Berliner. I've

1:10:00

been at NPR for 25 years. Here's

1:10:02

how we lost America's trust.

1:10:06

Yuri Bulina, a veteran at the

1:10:08

public radio institution, says the network

1:10:10

lost its way when

1:10:13

it started telling listeners how to

1:10:15

think. I

1:10:17

have to warn you, there is a paywall. For

1:10:21

Barry? For Barry Weiss? Well,

1:10:23

I called it up today and

1:10:26

I didn't pay anything. I

1:10:28

think you have a subscription though, don't you? Not

1:10:31

yet. Wait, I'm aware of. Wait a

1:10:33

minute. Wait a minute. I'm scrolling, I'm

1:10:35

scrolling. Usually it fades away when

1:10:37

you scroll down. Oh, you can get

1:10:40

this for nothing. I made it all the way

1:10:42

to the end scrolling and I'm still

1:10:44

looking at it. That's good. As long as

1:10:46

we're on this subject, I should peel back

1:10:48

the curtain for the listeners. Gee, you'll be

1:10:50

happy to know that the mayor earlier this

1:10:53

week had to

1:10:55

borrow the subscription from Johnny Hite for his

1:10:57

own newspaper. I got

1:11:00

one at home and I don't know where the password is. I'm

1:11:07

waiting for their prices to

1:11:09

drop before I sign up again. I'm

1:11:12

not paying four bucks a week after six

1:11:14

months. This is a

1:11:16

wonderful piece, I recommend it. It's

1:11:21

an insider telling us that we're

1:11:23

not crazy for the way

1:11:25

we've chosen to

1:11:27

view NPR. We're not crazy at

1:11:30

all. I would say the

1:11:32

same for NPR. It's a bit ridiculous.

1:11:35

Their biases are completely

1:11:37

obvious and they're

1:11:39

no longer even attempting

1:11:42

to pretend there isn't one. And

1:11:44

here is a fellow who's telling you that, look, I've

1:11:46

been there for 25 years and

1:11:48

here's what's happened. And

1:11:50

I recommend it highly. It'll

1:11:53

help you make your decisions about

1:11:55

your news gathering sources. And

1:11:58

I can't recommend it. enough.

1:12:00

Yuri Berliner, U-R-I's

1:12:02

his first name Berliner,

1:12:04

B-E-R-L-I-N-E-R. Yuri Berliner, the

1:12:06

piece is dated yesterday.

1:12:09

So it's brand new. It's hot

1:12:11

off the presses. It's

1:12:13

April 9th, I

1:12:16

have not heard of the failed

1:12:18

academy, Sarah Lawrence. What

1:12:20

is that? I have. Where is it? I believe

1:12:22

that would be East Coast, but one of you

1:12:25

fellas could quickly look it up. Sarah

1:12:27

Lawrence. This

1:12:30

guy said, look, I sound

1:12:32

like the typical NPR guy.

1:12:35

I drive a Subaru. I

1:12:37

was raised by a

1:12:39

peace activist, lesbian mother. I

1:12:43

fit the NPR mold. I'll

1:12:46

cop to that. And then he goes

1:12:48

on to say, now God bless him.

1:12:50

I don't know how he was able

1:12:52

to have his eyes opened or retain

1:12:54

any common sense at all, but he

1:12:56

did. And he's relaying that

1:12:58

to us. Sarah Lawrence, I

1:13:00

believe, I guess it's no

1:13:02

longer an all female school. Oh,

1:13:05

Sarah Lawrence College, a

1:13:07

private liberal arts college started 98 years

1:13:10

ago and element 110 million. Where

1:13:13

Matt? It is. Yonkers,

1:13:16

New York. It's right in

1:13:18

New York. Originally a

1:13:20

women's college, it became co-ed in 60. Are

1:13:23

there is there sports nickname,

1:13:25

the bonkers? No, but

1:13:28

it would be, I bet without beat. Well,

1:13:30

I don't care if I'm unfair. I think

1:13:32

I'm on solid ground and telling you that

1:13:34

I bet it's right. I bet it's in

1:13:37

the top 10 of failed academies. Division

1:13:40

three, the griffons, Griffin,

1:13:42

whatever. I've never seen

1:13:44

that spelled. Yes, Chris. Sarah

1:13:47

Olivia Lawrence is an Australian model, comedian and

1:13:49

TV personality. She is best known for her

1:13:51

role in the Australian feature film, Stone Bros.

1:13:54

This is different to Sarah Lawrence, you idiot.

1:13:56

Is she related to Vicki Lawrence? I don't

1:13:58

think so. Sooch,

1:14:00

he claims that NPR hasn't always been

1:14:02

the way it is now. And

1:14:06

wouldn't you say that, if that in fact is

1:14:08

true, I know you might dispute that, but

1:14:11

wouldn't you say that NPR has just

1:14:13

fallen into the same old trope,

1:14:16

if that's the right word that all

1:14:18

news-gathering institutions, you pick a side and

1:14:20

you go with it, right? Uh,

1:14:25

I can't, I wouldn't

1:14:27

have a date in mind to

1:14:29

suggest that where NPR was reasonable,

1:14:33

in my time frame, they haven't been

1:14:36

reasonable for my listening

1:14:38

life. But

1:14:40

that might be unfair. They might have been reasonable,

1:14:44

you know, in the 60s, I don't know. I

1:14:46

can't remember. All I know is what

1:14:48

I hear from our friend Kathy, who

1:14:50

hosts the local part

1:14:53

of Morning Edition, I

1:14:56

believe it's called. Yeah, she's NPR, Minnesota

1:14:58

Public Radio. And

1:15:00

she gets a mail from both

1:15:02

sides of the political aisle, depending

1:15:04

on who she interviews. Well,

1:15:08

I'm going to read this thoroughly as

1:15:10

part of my homework assignment. Let

1:15:14

me know what you're buying. You couldn't have listened

1:15:16

to NPR in the 60s because it didn't

1:15:18

exist. Okay. I don't even know what I'm reading.

1:15:20

Wasn't it the 70s? Wasn't it the 70s? 71,

1:15:23

April 19th, 1971. All right, then in the 70s, I don't know. I

1:15:28

can't remember what I thought of

1:15:30

it. Yeah, and wasn't the first

1:15:32

Minnesota station outstate? Was it Collegeville?

1:15:35

Yeah. Yes. Yeah.

1:15:38

And Keeler made his debut in 1974 on

1:15:40

NPR. So

1:15:46

he was fairly a

1:15:48

pioneer with the founding

1:15:50

of NPR. Garrison

1:15:54

said he's having more fun as a washed up

1:15:56

has been than he ever did as somebody

1:16:00

somebody. Yeah, 57

1:16:02

years ago in 67 St. John's University

1:16:04

broadcasting. So NPR

1:16:07

was there before NPR? Rook try

1:16:09

and get Garrison to join us

1:16:11

again prior to his big anniversary

1:16:13

show in St. Paul this summer.

1:16:15

Okay. It'd be fun to have any

1:16:18

guess. Is it June? I remember it.

1:16:20

I believe so. This is 74 to, well it's his

1:16:22

50th. It's

1:16:25

his 50th anniversary. Weren't you gonna get us

1:16:27

tickets for that show? No, Garrison will. I

1:16:29

have no pull with Garrison. He doesn't have

1:16:31

enough money for that. Taylor

1:16:34

Swift ain't coming to town again, is he? Right. No,

1:16:37

not for a while. What's

1:16:41

he doing now? Only because

1:16:43

they come to us is

1:16:45

brought to you by renewal by Anderson.

1:16:47

That's right. With the finely

1:16:50

engineered acclaimed windows. Only

1:16:54

because they come to us all

1:16:56

the way from Apache Junction, Arizona

1:16:59

from the traveling Limans. It

1:17:02

was on this day in history. You're talking

1:17:04

about April 10th? On

1:17:06

this day in

1:17:09

1855 Jacob Feldie was

1:17:11

born in Norway. He

1:17:15

sculpted a work Hiawatha

1:17:17

in Minnehaha. Oh.

1:17:19

He played in Minnehaha Park. Yeah.

1:17:21

And the statue of Ollie Bull,

1:17:24

located in Loring Park, Minneapolis. I've

1:17:26

seen both of them. The one

1:17:28

in Minnehaha Park is sometimes

1:17:31

flooded by the creek in the

1:17:33

spring. It's a creek, but it's

1:17:35

flooded nonetheless. On this,

1:17:37

we didn't do much on this day. No?

1:17:40

Is this the only other one? 4'10".

1:17:42

On this day, which is the opposite

1:17:44

of 10'4", good buddy, in 1995,

1:17:49

the ocean liner St. Paul

1:17:51

was launched at last. The

1:17:54

International Navigation Company had intended

1:17:56

to launch the ship on

1:17:58

March 25th. Inviting

1:18:01

70 dignitaries to

1:18:03

Philadelphia for the occasion.

1:18:06

After the champagne bottle was

1:18:08

broken however the ship refused

1:18:10

to budge. Oh no.

1:18:12

So they finally got her... Caddyshack when

1:18:15

she's trying to bang her. They finally

1:18:17

got her down the ramp on this

1:18:19

day in... I

1:18:23

hope you choked to death. They

1:18:26

finally got her down the ramp on this day

1:18:29

in 1895 the ocean liner St.

1:18:31

Paul. It's fascinating. Garrison

1:18:33

will be at the Fitz Friday

1:18:36

July 12th, Saturday the 13th

1:18:39

and Sunday the 14th. That's

1:18:42

his 50th anniversary. Oh they added

1:18:44

a third showcase. Scroll down. Yeah,

1:18:48

1:18:50

p.m. There is a seating there. Yeah

1:18:52

1:18:54

1:18:57

1:19:00

don't you get them? Yeah

1:19:02

1:19:04

1:19:06

1:19:08

1:19:11

old model that's been returned after

1:19:13

1:19:15

your alley. The 230,000 on a

1:19:17

hard mile. Right. What does it go up

1:19:19

to about 210? You want to get up

1:19:21

1:19:23

Lamborghini life that's ever gotten to 200,000 miles.
