1287 tax day, April 15th, 2024 91

0:09

degrees on this day in 2002 and

0:11

18 degrees

0:19

man, Chile in 2014.

0:22

Now, if you, uh, you're heading towards the swimming

0:24

season, I hope you've gotten a hold of Aqua

0:26

side. They've been keeping swimming areas

0:29

and Lake shore is great for more than

0:31

60 years because they wipe out the weeds

0:33

in the algae with products that they make

0:35

right there in White Bear Lake. The

0:38

products are easy to use. They

0:40

work quickly and they're registered with

0:42

the EPA and DNR. They're completely

0:44

safe. There's no need to

0:46

let weeds overtake your lake or

0:49

pond this summer. Call Aqua side

0:51

today. They'll help you identify your weed problem and

0:53

make sure your place looks great all summer long. Call Aqua

0:55

side at 1 800 3 2 8 93 50 or go

0:57

to Aqua side dot com. Now

1:05

Aqua side brings us the ice out dates.

1:07

It's interesting to note that

1:10

I would say April 15. I haven't done

1:12

the math, but April 15th

1:14

must be the, uh, about

1:16

half come before April 15th and

1:19

about half come after April 15th.

1:21

The midway point because April 15th

1:23

is a fairly scarce

1:25

for ice. House Minnetonka opened on April 15th

1:27

on eight in 1863 and not again until

1:29

2022. White Bear Lake

1:37

1944 and

1:40

2002. Hail the flashlight

1:42

King. And now

1:46

from the mayor's office above the boat

1:48

house on the east shore of Spoon Lake.

1:51

It's garage logic with Chris

1:53

Revers Manning Technology Corner Kenny

1:55

Olson from the Krabby coffee

1:57

shop. John height in the newsroom.

2:00

Old Court to rookie. It

2:02

is your flashlight to a player

2:05

with permission and the keeper of

2:07

common sense. Your man,

2:10

Joe Sushin. To

2:12

start the show on a happy note, I

2:14

don't even consider it an array of hope.

2:16

It's just happiness. It's a happy note. Friday,

2:19

just this past Friday, at

2:22

Norwood Young America, it was drive your

2:24

tractor to school day. Oh yeah, I

2:26

saw some photos online. At Central High

2:29

in Norwood Young America. And I was

2:31

sent a picture by Dave Larson. Isn't

2:33

that wonderful? That's very cool. Did

2:36

you guys have that at Hill? No.

2:40

No, but I'm old enough

2:42

to continue to tell

2:44

you that the high school parking

2:46

lot used to be a car

2:48

show. No. It certainly isn't

2:51

anymore. The culture

2:53

has done a marvelous job of

2:55

disabusing young people with cars. It's

2:59

just amazing to me. A lot of

3:01

them are unaffordable these days. The cool

3:03

old ones are unaffordable. The new cool

3:05

ones are unaffordable. And they're, well, weren't

3:07

they relatively speaking just as unaffordable? I

3:10

don't know, were they? I've been actually

3:12

spending a lot of time thinking about

3:14

that lately. Oh,

3:16

it was just now they're just driving

3:18

mom's minivan. In 1979 was

3:21

the 69 Chevelle affordable? I

3:27

don't know. More than it would be today. In

3:30

1983 I had a 65 Impala

3:33

and I don't think it cost

3:35

more than 3 grand. If

3:37

I remember, I had 37,000 on it when I got it. I

3:41

think I went up to 40. I think I've had 40 cars. Oh,

3:45

I lost. I've kept track of motorcycles,

3:47

but not cars. Well,

3:49

and those cars, speaking of which, they're going

3:51

to get a lot more expensive to drive.

3:54

Why's that, Joe? Well, he's a new proposed... Can

3:57

you give me the author's obscenity file? 2584.

4:01

Yep. Bear

4:03

with me for just a moment. That's

4:06

a tax on every gallon you buy.

4:08

An independent analysis shows the bill could

4:10

increase fuel prices significantly, hitting hardest those

4:12

that could least afford it. An extra

4:15

50 cents or more per gallon. Your

4:17

first author is DFL

4:19

Senator Scott Dibble. Yep.

4:23

There's three. Yep. Your second

4:25

author is Senator Foun

4:29

H-A-W-J. I'm

4:32

not sure how to pronounce

4:34

it last name. H-W-J. H-H-H-H-H-Hog.

4:38

And for your final author is Senate

4:40

Majority Leader Aaron Murphy. What number is

4:42

it? Which file is it? Senate file

4:47

2584. 2584, thank you. Low income families who

4:49

already spend a larger share of their

4:51

income on transportation

4:54

could see their fuel expenses

4:56

rise, consuming over 10% of

4:58

their household budget. That's

5:00

a penalty of your way of life. The

5:05

bill is, oh

5:07

man, the bill is modeled

5:09

on California policy. Well that's fine

5:12

man. Minnesotans

5:14

have enjoyed some of the lowest gas

5:16

prices compared to other households in the

5:19

U.S. But Senate file. We don't know that.

5:21

We have compared to other California

5:24

for example. Senate file 2584

5:26

threatens to undo this.

5:28

Escalating, what am I reading from?

5:30

That was a website. I knew

5:32

you were going to ask that.

5:35

It's obviously a gas advocacy group,

5:37

which I'm all for. Senate

5:42

file 2584 threatens to

5:44

undo this low pricing. Escalating the average

5:46

cost of Minnesota household spend on gas.

5:48

Pushing the state down the path of

5:51

others like California, Oregon, and Washington where

5:53

fuel prices are among the highest in

5:55

the nation. Why should Minnesotans

5:57

bear the burden of a policy that life

6:00

that makes life more expensive.

6:02

This was submitted by off-site

6:04

correspondent Kelsey and this is

6:06

from the consumerenergyalliance.org website. But

6:08

what we've done is verify

6:10

that this is a real

6:12

proposed bill. Correct. It

6:15

doesn't affect everyone equally. It

6:17

disproportionately impacts those living in

6:19

rural areas who depend on

6:21

their vehicles for daily tasks and

6:24

lack alternative transportation. It's not just

6:26

about paying more at the pump,

6:28

it's about the fundamental fairness of

6:31

a policy that benefits few. That's

6:35

amazing a 50 cent increase. And what was

6:37

our which is the is the purpose to

6:39

save the earth? Oh yeah

6:41

this is yeah it's the co2 is

6:44

a very important gas. It's good

6:46

for us. The amount

6:48

of co2 in the atmosphere is

6:50

0.04 percent and to find the

6:52

damage it does like finding a

6:54

grain of sugar on the

6:56

bridge that goes over Interstate

6:58

35. It's

7:01

reducing the carbon intensity of

7:03

transportation fuel. Aren't they

7:05

talking carbon dioxide here Joe? Yeah I said

7:08

co2. Oh

7:10

I thought you mentioned carbon monoxide.

7:12

No no no no. All

7:14

right. Carbon monoxide is not good for you.

7:16

Right. Just scanning this it

7:18

looks like they're even covering farm

7:21

vehicles like tractors and such.

7:25

Well I have the whole bill in

7:27

front of me but it's very small.

7:29

So tedious. So hard

7:31

to. We don't want to live

7:33

this way Aaron Murphy whose husband

7:35

I know and hold in

7:38

fond respect he painted my house twice.

7:40

He's a hell of a guy's expert

7:43

at this house painting. They don't

7:45

advertise. Yeah Hughes and Murphy. Hughes

7:47

retired Murphy's still going. He must

7:50

live in a house divided because

7:52

he's a normal guy. He's just

7:54

a normal human being. And

7:58

this won't affect Aaron much. I mean, what's

8:00

your commute from St. Paul to

8:02

the Capitol, about five minutes? Nothing.

8:06

Oh, come on. That's another example of

8:08

just being completely out of touch. Well,

8:10

you're not going to save the earth

8:12

with this. Exactly, Chris. It's people near

8:14

the tallest buildings making decisions for the

8:16

people who don't, you know? These

8:19

are not... You know what? They

8:21

always throw around equity. This is not

8:23

equitable. This

8:25

forces a poor person to pay far

8:27

more of their yearly income on gas

8:30

than a rich person. What's

8:32

the definition of not equitable? That's

8:34

what this is. This is not

8:36

equitable. This is intrusive. We've talked

8:38

about this before, but now we're

8:40

talking the trickle-down effect. This is

8:42

going to make goods more expensive

8:44

because the guy that's delivering

8:47

has to charge more. You

8:52

know, the shows we did last week,

8:56

part one and part two on Thursday and

8:58

Friday regarding Zayab

9:01

Mohammed and Sean Holster.

9:06

Sean Holster, yeah. What

9:08

are you doing? I got an update from him, but finish

9:10

your thought. They really created a lot of buzz. To

9:14

the point where Sean sent me a text yesterday

9:16

saying, thank you and the crew again for having

9:18

me on. My organization has already

9:20

made over $1,500 so far as a direct

9:23

result of my appearance at GarageLogic Friday. It

9:25

doesn't sound like much, but for us, that

9:27

is huge. Thank you,

9:29

Gio. I didn't intend for that to turn

9:31

into his fundraiser. I think that was fine.

9:34

It's great that he mentioned that. That's not why

9:36

he was brought in. No, not at all. But

9:38

he's a sharp guy and he

9:40

thought, what the hell? I'll take the opportunity here to

9:43

try to raise a few bucks. We

9:45

have another legislator that's interesting. Her

9:47

name is Esther. Aghbaje.

9:51

Rook, get on it. A-G-B-A-J-E.

9:54

Aghbaje. A-G-A-A-J-E.

10:00

E Ag

10:02

bajay Esther Ag bajay

10:05

DFL She

10:08

is hoping she's along with two

10:10

dozen DFL errs Hoping

10:13

to advance a bill That

10:16

would require corporate landlords to divest their

10:18

single-family homes or else face a $100,000

10:20

fine sure This

10:25

makes me uncomfortable it should house file

10:27

685 passed a party line

10:29

vote in the House Committee Where

10:32

its author said the proposal begins addressing

10:35

the trend of corporate and investor? Owners

10:37

in the housing market weren't both

10:39

you and Kenny essentially investor owners

10:42

of property. I sure was The

10:45

details of the bill have been scaled back from the

10:47

original version Representative Esther Ag

10:50

bajay DFL Minneapolis introduced

10:53

The bill she introduced last year

10:55

which would have prohibited any corporate

10:57

entity real estate developer or residential

11:00

building contractor from purchasing

11:02

or building a single-family home and

11:05

Subsequently converting the property into

11:07

non homestead residential real estate

11:10

The version Ag bajay presented to

11:12

the house judiciary and financial and

11:14

civil law committee Tuesday

11:16

last Tuesday would prevent

11:18

corporate owners from owning more than 10

11:21

single-family homes in Minnesota They use

11:23

as rental properties I'm

11:25

just I'm trying to get to the Y here and

11:28

if you violate that she would fine you

11:30

a hundred grand per excess unit Where

11:34

the Republicans just can't get any purchase

11:36

in Minneapolis She is an American

11:39

politician serving the DFL since 2021 59

11:42

B North and

11:44

downtown Minneapolis Born

11:48

she's born in st. Paul. Well parents who

11:50

immigrated to Minnesota from Nigeria she

11:53

grew up in Brainerd and Faribault and Graduated

11:56

from Shattuck st. Mary's Wow graduate

11:58

from George Washington University University Bachelor

12:00

of Arts in Poli-Sci Can't flunk

12:03

that. University of Pennsylvania with a

12:05

Master of Public Administration Can't flunk

12:07

that. Harvard University with a Juris

12:10

Doctor Another lawyer. At Lawson she

12:12

worked at Harvard's Legal Aid Bureau

12:14

and volunteered for volunteer lawyers. Before

12:17

law school she worked at the US

12:19

Department of State as a Foreign Service

12:22

Officer focusing on the Middle East. So

12:24

she's never had a job. She was

12:26

an associate with Cerisi Conlon LLP. She

12:28

was a pro boner worker. She

12:31

couldn't have lasted there. How old is she

12:33

Matt? She couldn't have lasted there long. Yes.

12:38

It caps it at like you said

12:40

10 single family homes per

12:43

person, corporation, whatever. So

12:45

Chris, a little quiz. When you were

12:47

renting a property you had

12:49

to mention that income

12:52

on that property on your taxes and

12:54

pay taxes on it, did you not?

12:56

Sure did Ken. Plus

12:58

you paid a non-homestead tax, did you

13:00

not? Sure did Ken. So if this

13:02

dries up, what's going to

13:04

happen to that revenue? That's going to

13:06

go away Ken. The committee voted to

13:08

advance the bill to its next stop,

13:10

the Housing, Finance and Policy Committee

13:12

on a party line vote. DFL

13:14

legislators who have either

13:16

signed on to the bill or have

13:19

voted to support it include Jamie Becker,

13:21

Dash Finner, Roseville, Ned Carroll, Plymouth, Breon

13:23

Curran, Avadneze Sykes, Sandra Fice of New

13:25

Brighton, Lee Finke of St.

13:28

Paul, Luke Frederick of Mankato, Matt Norris

13:30

of Blaine and Kristin Bonner of Maple

13:32

Grove. Republicans on

13:34

the committee criticized the bill as

13:36

government overreach into the housing market.

13:40

It certainly sounds like it, doesn't it? Isn't

13:43

it an old tried and true way of trying

13:45

to make a buck in this country, is owning

13:47

property? This is not the government's role. Well

13:50

it's part of the American dream. It's

13:53

what we... The Republicans... Did

13:57

you mention the equity and peace coalition?

14:00

I'm getting there. Representative Peggy

14:03

Scott, a Republican

14:05

from Andover, questioned

14:09

several provisions including the creation

14:11

of a mandatory single-family

14:14

home rental database

14:17

that would allow the Attorney General's office

14:20

to track the number of

14:22

single-family rental properties owned by

14:24

business entities, including the

14:26

monthly rent they charge. Quite

14:28

frankly, it's none of the government's business what

14:30

I'm charging for rent unless it's Section 8,

14:33

she said, as federally-owned housing.

14:37

I have a real problem with putting out there

14:39

what the rent amounts are. I don't see the

14:42

need for a database. The

14:44

legislation is supported by a

14:46

coalition of housing activist organizations

14:48

under the umbrella of

14:50

Minneapolis-based equity in place. Well, you equity

14:53

people should be getting on the Democrats

14:55

who want to raise your gallon of

14:57

gas 50 cents a gallon, along

15:00

with the Twin Cities chapter of

15:02

Habitat for Humanity, whose representatives told

15:04

legislators that corporate investment in the

15:06

housing market is a statewide issue

15:09

that needs to be addressed. Why?

15:13

We appreciate the fine-based

15:16

approach, meaning a fine for violating,

15:19

in this amendment, and would suggest

15:22

that the resources accumulated be

15:24

designated to the workforce and

15:26

affordable home ownership program. So

15:29

they'd find you guys that own property, and

15:31

then apparently they would use that money so somebody

15:33

could go and rent a house from you. Why

15:37

don't they just take it from me? Why don't

15:40

they just declare imminent domain and take it out

15:42

of my hands? I wouldn't give many

15:44

any money. Maybe bottom dollar for it. Those

15:48

representing the single-family home rental

15:51

industry say

15:53

such... Now, according to this, I could

15:55

still go buy the house across the

15:57

street and rent it. Right.

16:00

The rent I charge might be in a

16:02

database and I'd be frowned upon by the

16:04

Mysterians, but I can still do that because

16:06

they haven't gotten that far yet. Right, and

16:08

the rent I charge is what the market

16:10

bears. We're talking less than 10

16:12

properties. But if I own 11 of those

16:14

properties, I'm fine on the 11th one. Yep.

16:18

Now they're after you. But those

16:20

representing the single-family home rent, I wonder how

16:23

they arrived at 10? What's

16:25

their number? Why is that on the way? Very

16:27

arbitrary, you're right. Why isn't 11 okay? I

16:31

bet they don't even know. I

16:33

bet they couldn't answer that. But

16:35

those representing the single-family home rental

16:37

industry say such language is unconstitutional

16:40

on several grounds, including by violating

16:42

the Takings Clause, an equal protection

16:44

amendment of the federal Minnesota Constitution.

16:47

As of 2023, about 165,000 single-family residential units across Minnesota were rented out. A

16:56

ban on the corporate ownership of

16:58

single-family homes violates owners' rights against

17:00

government Takings by instituting

17:02

a regulation which impermissibly interferes

17:05

with owners' rights of enjoyment

17:07

and disposition of their property,

17:09

wrote David Howard, CEO of

17:11

the National Home Rental Council,

17:14

in testimony opposing the bill.

17:17

At a time when housing throughout America

17:19

is challenged by an unprecedented shortage of

17:22

homes brought on by

17:24

decades of underbuilding any legislation

17:26

or regulation like House File 685,

17:29

discouraging and restraining new housing

17:31

development investment only serves to

17:34

make housing more scarce, an

17:36

unobtainable Howard said. Other

17:39

organizations opposed to the proposal

17:41

include the Minnesota Realtors Association.

17:45

We've heard concerns about large

17:47

institutional investors, said Pat Paulson,

17:50

a longtime Twin Cities realtor and

17:52

treasurer of the Minnesota Realtors Association.

17:55

However, the ownership threshold in this bill is

17:57

10 or more. That threshold will... cover

18:00

smaller local housing providers. Lawmakers

18:05

who fell on different sides of the

18:07

bill spent time during recent hearings arguing

18:10

over whether the legislature's role is to direct

18:12

the housing market or get out of the

18:14

way. We're

18:16

losing the ability of

18:19

the government to get out of the

18:21

way of anything. You

18:23

have the president not getting out of

18:25

the way of automobile manufacturing and letting

18:27

the market decide. He's

18:30

forcing you to buy an electric car. Actually

18:33

he's forcing manufacturers to build

18:35

them at tremendous losses to

18:37

them. And

18:39

yet you as a taxpayer have to

18:42

subsidize the purchase of them. Well

18:46

okay there are just a lot of

18:48

homes that people could live in if

18:50

we wanted them to said representative Finke.

18:53

We are taking the resources we have.

18:56

You don't have anything Finke. You didn't build a

18:59

house and putting them into the

19:01

hands of fewer people have more control over what

19:03

people are trying to access and that will always

19:05

lead down the wrong path for our communities. Representative

19:08

Harry Niska a Republican

19:11

from Ramsey pointed out that many

19:13

corporate investors in the single-family real

19:15

estate market are pension funds or

19:17

small family businesses. With

19:19

this bill I think you're potentially going to wrap up

19:22

a lot of other people rather than the fat

19:24

cats you think you're applying this to. Niska

19:27

said I

19:29

got this story for elephant news.

19:31

I think it's a dreadful intrusion

19:33

on property ownership.

19:36

That's a really interesting and

19:38

proper quote. I mean he really hit the

19:40

nail on the head there. Basically what he

19:43

said is this is retirement income

19:45

for folks because their retirement

19:47

isn't enough to survive on. So the

19:50

few houses that they own and that

19:52

they earn rental on

19:54

that's their income. Keep all of this in

19:56

mind for one of the reasons we had part

19:58

one and two last Thursday. Thursday and Friday.

20:01

The only reason or

20:03

the principal reason we brought

20:05

in Sean Holster was because

20:07

he ran against a woman

20:09

in Minneapolis named

20:13

Zadrib Zaydah

20:15

Mohammed who

20:18

defeated him 39,000 Zaynab.

20:22

Zaynab Mohammed who defeated

20:24

Sean Holston in

20:26

a South Minneapolis district in 1963 for a

20:28

Senate seat by 39,000 votes

20:31

to nothing essentially. And I wanted to

20:33

know from

20:38

Sean Holster

20:42

what's going on, who are these people and he was

20:44

very good at explaining that. But the other reason I

20:46

brought him in is one of Zaydah's

20:49

quotes was when it

20:51

comes to somebody living in

20:53

a home that they don't own,

20:55

that they shouldn't be hassled because

20:58

they're just as much human as even though

21:01

they don't have documentation, they're just

21:03

as human as the owner of

21:05

the house, which isn't

21:07

the issue. No one's questioning anyone's

21:09

humanity. So a couple of

21:11

her views of private property ownership with

21:14

this and there's

21:16

probably a very comfortable large

21:18

movement among the DFL'ers

21:20

who are no longer your

21:23

parents' DFL, these are Marxist socialists

21:25

who don't want private property ownership.

21:28

Here's another attack on it. These

21:33

are dreadful, dreadful directions for

21:35

the legislature to go all

21:38

under the auspices of the worst governor

21:40

in the history of Minnesota who

21:42

has had no ability to intervene or

21:44

nor wish to, apparently. Occasionally

21:47

he should be coming forward to say you

21:49

kids are always going too far. You've gone

21:51

too far on the fact that we're going

21:53

to build a new office building. You're going

21:55

too far on these property Issues.

21:57

But He's just a moron. who doesn't

22:00

know what the hell is doing? It

22:02

is the worst governor in the history

22:04

of Minnesota. He finally joined

26:18

In New York property

26:20

owners who have seen

26:22

their home taken over by an illegal

26:25

immigrant they

26:29

cannot turn off the water or

26:32

electricity and

26:35

there's a law that says squatters

26:37

are turned into tenants after

26:40

30 days. This

26:43

is from the Town Hall I don't

26:45

know that website written by Sarah Arnold.

26:48

New York City homeowners are being pushed to

26:50

financial limits due to a law that allows

26:52

squatters to live rent-free. At the

26:55

same time the owners are forced

26:57

to keep paying electricity and maintenance

26:59

bills for the apartments. Under

27:02

New York City law anyone who lives in

27:04

a home or apartment for at least 30

27:06

days can claim squatters rights even if they

27:08

broke into the property without permission from the

27:10

owner. What

27:12

the hell? Several homeowners told

27:14

CBS that they would be arrested instantly if

27:17

they were to change the locks evict the

27:19

squatters or turn off necessities such as hot

27:21

water. They are forced to

27:23

pay for the upkeep of the homes

27:25

while squatters many of whom are illegal

27:27

immigrants get to live in them for free.

27:31

One woman told the outlet that she's in debt

27:33

with maxed out credit cards after having to pay

27:36

all of the expenses as squatters take over

27:38

her home. They turned off the

27:40

hot water and then reported that they had no hot water it's a

27:42

$250 fine a day up to 15 grand punishable

27:47

by five years in jail homeowners

27:50

Susan Mascara told CBS

27:52

News. You

27:55

got to be kidding me. That's interesting

27:57

so are we to assume that in New

27:59

York can I look for this and I couldn't find the

28:01

answer. Are we to assume

28:03

that landlords have to pay those utilities?

28:07

Because when I've done it, utilities have

28:09

been the responsibility of the people living

28:11

in the unit and they'll get turned

28:14

off when that person moves out. Or

28:17

the landlord will take over the payments. I think that's a

28:19

success. If that was your apartment and

28:21

you're not there and it

28:23

was your obligation to pay the utility bills,

28:25

you have to even though a squatter is

28:27

living in your apartment. It

28:32

doesn't seem from what I'm looking at here that

28:34

there doesn't seem to be any way around it.

28:38

In San Francisco,

28:41

there's a bill that

28:45

will let people sue grocery stores

28:47

if they close. Right.

28:50

I'm going to sue you because

28:53

you're closing your grocery store for whatever reason.

28:56

Are you beginning to see that this is all

28:58

of a piece? Of

29:00

S. The

29:03

San Francisco Board of Supervisors

29:06

is considering a policy that

29:08

will allow people to

29:10

sue grocery stores that close

29:12

too quickly. In other words, if they encounter

29:16

a crime and they throw up

29:18

the clothes sign, they can be

29:20

sued. Earlier this

29:22

week, supervisors Dean Preston and

29:24

Aaron Peskin introduced an

29:26

ordinance that if passed would require

29:28

grocery stores to provide six months

29:30

written notice to the city before

29:33

closing down. Isn't

29:35

that again an intrusion into private

29:38

property? Supermarket

29:41

operators would also have to make good

29:43

faith efforts to ensure

29:46

the continued availability of groceries

29:49

at their shuttered location, either

29:53

through finding a successor store,

29:56

Helping residents form a co-op, or any

29:58

other plan that might work. God my

30:00

meeting with city and neighborhood residents. Less.

30:04

One thinks this is some heavy

30:07

handed city hall intervention. The.

30:09

Hortons makes clear that the owners still

30:11

retain the power to closer store. That.

30:14

Also, creates a number exemptions for

30:17

the six months' notice of the

30:19

store is closed because of a

30:21

natural disaster or business circumstances that

30:24

are reasonably foreseeable. It doesn't have

30:26

to provide the six months notice.

30:30

Seal. Should stores close without providing

30:32

the proper noticed person's affected by

30:35

the closure would be entitled to

30:37

sue the clothes store for damage.

30:43

Or weed through. I

30:46

don't know anymore. what the hell

30:48

is going steering Who's got their health

30:50

right now. Press.

30:54

In the a supervisor. Has.

30:56

Been floating this ordinance since January one

30:59

is safe way in the city. Still

31:01

more neighborhood and now see was closing

31:03

before city officials intervened to keep it

31:05

open. Workflow.

31:08

What a close mobile auto

31:10

you're not with lots of.

31:14

Ah know you'd have to say open to

31:16

that. We can continue to rob you every

31:18

single day. That

31:21

is our writers that Americans. To

31:24

a clown show and. A

31:27

half. I know this is

31:29

a seem like a bizarre

31:31

question, but do these policies

31:33

exist in cities with unusually

31:35

large wrath populations? Because if

31:37

you saw the propaganda page

31:40

today. In. New York. Lawmakers,

31:43

Are looking for more humane

31:45

ways to kill rats any

31:47

further. Really

31:50

glued to our eyes. Assist Assist Assist

31:52

I read that story three times. System

31:54

Aggro was losing my mind. You just

31:56

crazy goes arm in arm with crazy.

31:59

I mean everything is crazy. From the

32:01

said case, we know you're going to

32:03

kill. That read like a zoo at

32:05

nicer. To

32:08

find a nice way to kill that rat? Seriously

32:12

patted on the head of have to

32:15

32:19

some better place of of the whatever

32:21

whatever the room Sam's dinner when I

32:24

was a impact on the proposed grocery

32:26

store policy, it provides a telling insight.

32:29

Into just how much micro management

32:31

San Francisco politicians think they're city

32:34

needs. One we're seeing here. Is.

32:37

Up there my we manage rental

32:39

property. A complete government's control. Or.

32:42

It's micromanaging of everything from helium

32:44

to cannabis to rental properties. Everything

32:47

on earth. Nothing's off the table

32:49

thier. And

32:51

the cannabis thing is a has

32:53

been described as the way we

32:55

was described. Your first podcast? Yes,

32:57

yes, that is a perfect fit.

34:06

I don't want to turn off very

34:08

34:10

so I always wanted for. I put

34:13

my trust me node plotted for yet

34:15

I'm an employee. Oh didn't know. Ah,

34:20

let's go down to Dalton, Illinois.

34:23

I've shown below of our favorite mayor

34:26

in our favor Mirror funny he a

34:28

ten years we should see a Us

34:30

and stuff. I had audio from her

34:32

on Friday that we never get a

34:34

chance. Pluto and fine I'm feeling when

34:36

you're ready by can dig it over.

34:39

She's faced ways of years in booing.

34:42

From set up constituents. She

34:45

calls herself the super mare of films.

34:48

As. As Chicago suburb. She's.

34:51

Been dubbed the Worst Mare and America

34:53

was a relief to me. The Up

34:55

as much as I ever would really

34:57

really see, has recently been dubbed the

35:00

worst mirror in America by critics after.

35:02

Being. Accused of miss needs ranging

35:05

from weaponizing police raids to

35:07

spending taxpayer money on luxuries

35:09

in Vegas. Most recently, she's

35:11

also come under fire for

35:13

an alleged sexual assault by

35:15

whatever allies during a Vegas

35:17

trip where the alleged victim

35:19

place you've been fined after

35:21

speaking out. She's a she's

35:23

a Pos. And. Then why don't think?

35:25

We're. What do you got there? They tried to

35:28

kill. When. You get

35:30

for his sorry on this is

35:32

her amidst the the allegations is

35:34

talking to her constituency. Office

35:41

and insist. They

35:53

are. They. turned on her primary

35:55

didn't understand a word she was sued

35:57

pulled out the race card right one

35:59

hundred percent And they all

36:01

started yelling, right? Yeah. And

36:04

are we to assume that the audience was,

36:06

as she put it, black and brown? Yes.

36:09

OK. That's what I was wondering.

36:11

They were not having it. No,

36:13

I'll rephrase it. They were not feeling it. Well,

36:16

Joe, the voters have tried for a few years

36:18

to get her out of office. And she's got

36:20

some kind of grasp on power that can't be

36:22

relinquished. I don't see it getting any better. Listen

36:24

to this. The village

36:27

of Dalton. Just

36:29

last Monday, hired former

36:31

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot. Oh, so

36:33

good. As a special investigator to

36:35

look into Hennard's conduct. Oh, good

36:37

lord. That's the fox guarding the

36:40

hen house. On Tuesday,

36:42

Lightfoot began to be paid $400 an hour

36:47

to gather information on

36:50

Hennard's alleged spending and

36:52

finance mismanagement, as

36:54

well as any state and federal violations.

36:57

400 times 8 equals 3. So

37:02

Matthew, I want to know

37:04

where you're at. If you're making $400 an hour, are you putting

37:06

in an eight hour day? Are

37:09

you going to maybe cut it off at four hours? What's

37:11

your policy on $400 an hour? I'm

37:14

happy with cutting half day. Thank you. I'm

37:17

saying we're up. I want to max

37:19

myself out when I got this good.

37:21

For the interest of self-preservation, I'm taking

37:23

those good points. That'll

37:25

make a six month job 12 months. Perfect.

37:28

Kenny, you and I think alike. I like your

37:30

tone today. And then in some cases, too,

37:32

you're going to send out the group email that says, hey,

37:35

I'm going to work from home today. Wait, I think I screwed

37:37

42:29

for our hero Matthew Mikulski. They call

42:31

him the Rook. Matt, what season?

42:34

Now this is in relation to seafoam. What

42:36

season are we coming up on? Oh we

42:39

are for sure coming up on

42:41

grass mowing season. Well that's a

42:43

swing and a miss but a

42:45

very good guess. Go ahead Chris

42:47

Revers. Is it Bugs Be Gone

42:49

season? No that's also a very

42:51

good guess and appropriate a boating

42:53

season. Thank you. That's why he's

42:55

the mayor and the fireworks commissioner.

42:57

He's the man. It's

42:59

a boat and pontoon season. I hope

43:01

you treated those cylinders with a good

43:03

dose of seafoam last fall because all

43:06

the common engines that plague our cylinders

43:08

and I'm talking four stroke and two

43:10

stroke when it comes to your boat

43:12

motors. They're all eliminated when it gets

43:14

occasional doses of seafoam in the gas.

43:16

All those costly repairs that take money

43:18

out of our wallet and you're delayed

43:21

putting your boat in because it's at

43:23

the shop. It's all taken care of

43:25

with seafoam occasionally. It's throughout the season

43:27

and a nice dose at the end of

43:29

the season. All we ask of our cylinders is

43:32

to run better and last longer and

43:34

that's exactly what seafoam motor treatment provides

43:36

us. The best way to save money

43:39

and even better for us it's

43:41

available everywhere. Yeah the marina, the

43:44

boat store, the hardware store, the

43:46

big-box store, you find seafoam everywhere.

43:48

A wonderful product in a world

43:50

of bad gas. Seafoam. Here's

43:53

John Haidt. Thank you Joe.

43:55

This news brought to you by North American

43:57

Banking Company, a police chase in southern Minnesota.

44:00

The order yesterday ended with the death

44:02

of one person. Authorities with the Dodge

44:04

County Sheriff's Office said it all started

44:06

about seven thirty in the evening when

44:08

a West Concord police officer tried to

44:10

pull a person over and person identified

44:12

as being male by authorities. That's where

44:14

44:43

44:48

minor injuries at the hospital. Did

44:50

he have of prior that. Led

44:52

us giant. they haven't identified him yet so

44:55

I'm not sure as her for not sure

44:57

I guess what's what's going on and bizarre

44:59

and sad story. It's.

45:01

A Minneapolis police have them arrested two

45:04

people who are suspected of shooting three

45:06

people when the city's North Side last

45:08

night. Calling the police officers called to

45:10

the eighty hundred block of Lowry Avenue

45:13

North shortly after nine after getting a

45:15

multiple calls shot about shots being fired

45:17

and shotspotter activation. Police and three people

45:19

to man one woman arrived at North

45:22

Memorial Hospital with gunshot wounds one of

45:24

the man identified as being in his

45:26

45:28

life threatening. The other man as well.

45:31

As. The woman who are also in

45:33

45:35

With the hapless police say their preliminary

45:37

45:39

vehicle suspect vehicle was found your dowling

45:42

and Penn Avenue North where officers say

45:44

they arrested. To man it's both identified

45:46

as being in their late twenties. John,

45:48

hold on for a second suit, you're

45:51

looking at the paper. If you go

45:53

back a couple of pages you'll see

45:55

a sidebar. a story about a shooting

45:57

in Chicago over the weekend where eleven.

46:00

people were shot standing out in front of

46:02

a house. You got that one, John? It's

46:04

coming up later in the night. Oh, good.

46:06

Good. The whole weekend plus that. Yeah. Specifically

46:08

that shooting. What a mess. Yep.

46:11

Minneapolis restaurant located near Nicollet Island

46:13

has been deemed uninhabitable following a

46:15

fire Sunday afternoon. According to the

46:17

Minneapolis Fire Department crews were called

46:19

to Masu Sushi and Robata shortly

46:22

after 3 p.m. When

46:24

they got there crews found smoke coming

46:26

from the roof and fire in the

46:28

kitchen, a fire extinguishment hood system and

46:30

vents. Water was run through the

46:32

vents to extinguish the flames. Crews then tore

46:35

up three of the hood vents and ceiling

46:37

to reach all over the fire. No one

46:39

was injured during the fire which is still

46:41

under investigation. Which building is that? Is that

46:43

the one right next to Hanapan? You can

46:45

look down on it as you drive

46:48

by. I can't

46:50

picture it. Yeah, I'm not sure. Anyway.

46:54

More than a dozen Minnesota counties are under

46:56

a red flag warning today. That warning means

46:58

fires will be able to quickly spread and

47:01

easily get out of control because of our

47:03

weather conditions. Weather authority is predicting

47:05

highs in the upper 60s and low 70s

47:07

today. Weather services winds will be 10 to

47:09

15 miles an hour with

47:11

higher gusts at times and humidity values

47:13

dropping into the 20s during the afternoon

47:16

hours. That warning is in

47:18

effect from 11 a.m. through 8 p.m.

47:21

for Brown Cottonwood Jackson

47:23

Lincoln Lion Martin Marie

47:25

Nobles Pipestone Redwood Rock and

47:28

Yellow Medicine counties. President,

47:30

most counties... It's

47:33

spinning right now. Wow. I

47:35

just rolled back. I can't

47:37

keep up. I should have

47:39

said, Joe, what are all the bee counties? What

47:41

are all the bee counties? Beckerville, Chamois, Benton, Big

47:43

Stone, Bloor, and Brown. And Brown is

47:45

the one. Ding, ding, ding. Anyway, residents in all those

47:47

counties are being asked to not burn while the warming

47:50

is in effect. DNR

47:52

officials won't be activating open burn permits

47:54

for large vegetative debris during the morning. They're

47:56

also discouraging campfires. Now we do have rain

47:59

in the forest. casts for later

48:01

on this week. Before that though,

48:03

tomorrow they're saying very, very, very

48:05

gusty winds before the rain moves

48:07

in. May I say that grass

48:09

fires have been with us since

48:11

the beginning of time, in case

48:14

you're thinking they

48:16

have something to do with the climate. Are you thinking

48:19

they might be unstoppable? Not all

48:21

of them have been caused by

48:23

Kenny burning tires. That's right. So

48:25

there's a human factor in there.

48:28

Boy, I bet Kerry was really angry this

48:30

weekend when he had his cocktail on the

48:33

porch and Nantucket that those

48:35

damn Iranians were polluting with the buns.

48:37

How dare they? Couldn't they conduct war

48:39

in a more peaceful way? Come on.

48:42

Speak to Kerry before you break us

48:44

away, John. One of my

48:47

neighbors informed me the best time

48:49

to burn tires is on foggy,

48:51

foggy days because nobody can see

48:53

the smoke. They can't tell. But

48:55

then you think the fog stinks.

48:57

Brilliant. We're all stinky fog

48:59

today. Don't burn tires, Kenny.

49:02

Well, it's not

49:04

good for our mother of the earth.

49:06

I promise. There was a house that

49:08

was being burned down intentionally because they

49:10

had built a new one behind it

49:13

on Saturday. And the forecast

49:15

called for the winds to pick up. Well, later in

49:17

the day when the little guy and I were driving

49:19

to practice, we said, oh, we got to go see

49:21

this. The flames were

49:24

horizontal. The wind was blowing. I

49:26

thought you were going to say the new house

49:28

caught on fire. No, but the wind was

49:30

blowing it away in the opposite direction. But

49:33

boy, oh boy, that was something else to

49:35

watch. Holy cow. I

49:37

want to drive. I'll drive miles to see a

49:39

good fire. You see the smoke

49:41

on the horizon. You've got the rest of the

49:43

day planned. We got to get her going. Follow

49:46

the smoke. It's like chasing

49:48

tornadoes. Yeah. It's

49:50

a different life out here in the country. In

49:52

fact, both of us, both me and my nine-year-old

49:54

son were watching it going. Really?

49:57

By their mouth, they'll be like, this. pretty

50:00

much business as usual for you Chris. Why don't

50:02

we take a break at this point? He

50:06

just couldn't help himself could you John? I could.

50:08

I could put out that fire with... What you're

50:10

thinking. I could put out that fire with your

50:12

tears. Hofferman water. Oh my lord. See that's what

50:14

segways right there ladies and gentlemen. Here's

50:17

51:18

Ricy here with the Canopy Group facts.

51:20

Fact one, the Canopy Group writes more

51:23

new business in one month than an

51:25

agent who represents one company writes in

51:27

three years. How is this possible? We'll

51:30

give you the other facts to understand

51:32

why. Fact two, the Canopy Group offers

51:34

16 different insurance companies

51:36

not just one. Fact three, the

51:39

Canopy Group offers annual policies not

51:41

six month policies that leave you

51:43

at risk for two premium increases

51:46

annually. Fact four, the Canopy Group

51:48

offers one deductible at claim time not

51:50

two, three, four or even more. Fact

51:52

five, the Canopy Group will shop your

51:55

home on auto insurance with their 16

51:58

companies each and every year. Captive

52:00

insurance agencies can't shop

52:03

for you because they only have one

52:05

company. Now that you have the facts,

52:07

it's time to get your options. Call

52:09

800-967-3389 or visit thecanopygroup.com. Sometimes

52:19

I have to treat you like you're already

52:21

having memory issues and I just have to

52:23

agree with you. It's like,

52:25

yep, that's right, dad. Yeah, you couldn't be

52:27

more correct, dad. You

52:33

don't want some more ice in your water? The

52:38

earth is not your mother. The

52:40

Joe Sousa Ray Show. In

52:43

other news, I hope you can remember all of this,

52:46

Joe, when I've done it. Israel

52:49

promising revenge against Iran's airstrike warning. We

52:51

will exact a price in the way

52:53

and at the time that's right for

52:55

us. War Minister Benny Gantz's threat

52:57

came after 99% of more than the 300 drones

53:01

and missiles launched from Iranian soil were

53:03

intercepted. British, US, French,

53:05

and Jordanian forces, plus Israel's defense

53:08

systems, downed most of the aerial

53:10

barrage. Gantz pledged to build

53:12

a regional coalition in the face of the

53:14

Iranian threat. Adding to his

53:16

exact price comment, he said Iran

53:19

is a global problem, a regional

53:21

challenge and a danger to Israel

53:23

as well. And today the world

53:25

stood clearly together with Israel against

53:27

that threat. Um, I have

53:29

a question. Oh, it's

53:32

clear now that, uh, we are on the precipice

53:34

of world war. Do we get a playbook? Who's

53:36

going to fire the first nuke at who? And

53:38

do we get all that information ahead of time?

53:40

Or we just got to kind of wait. You

53:42

are just going to worry about the Trump trial.

53:44

I see. Okay, cool. Is that going

53:46

to dribble that lead in? Is

53:49

that going to dribble into the United States or is it

53:51

going to stay there? They'll stay there. All

53:53

right. We can't even walk here with

53:55

our sports season. Wall

54:00

Street Journal reporting Donald Trump's hush money

54:03

trial began this morning in one of

54:05

the bluest parts of the country where

54:07

a jury full of Democrats could decide

54:09

to presumptive Republican presidential nominees fate. Jury

54:12

selection in the case involving the alleged cover-up of

54:14

a payment to buy a porn star silence could

54:16

take a week or more. The

54:18

presiding judge as well as prosecutors and

54:21

Trump's lawyers are expected to question hundreds

54:23

of prospective jurors to weed out anyone

54:25

who can't set aside views of the

54:27

former president whose tenure sparked deep divisions.

54:30

Picking in a partial jury

54:33

on Democratic turf where President Biden won 87% of

54:35

the vote in

54:37

the 2020 election will be challenging according

54:39

to trial consultants. Litigation

54:42

consultant Alan Turkeheimer said of Trump, I

54:44

can't think of another place where he's

54:46

more loathed than his hometown of New

54:48

York City. On Monday morning

54:50

Trump arrived at the courthouse before 930

54:52

getting ready for the trial. Manhattan

54:55

prosecutors have charged him with 34 counts

54:57

of falsifying business records to hide a

54:59

payment to X-rated film star Stormy Daniels

55:01

ahead of the 2016 election. It

55:04

was the first of four criminal cases

55:06

brought against Trump in state and federal

55:08

courts might be the only case that

55:11

wraps up ahead of the November election.

55:13

You'd have to go deep into the

55:15

Brazilian rainforest where those people fire arrows

55:17

at planes and stuff because they've never

55:19

seen them to

55:21

get a jury that's never heard of this guy. Which

55:25

one of you guys are a lawyer because

55:27

I have a question about law. When

55:33

it comes to buying somebody silence,

55:36

if he paid her off, isn't

55:38

she supposed to buy law and

55:41

the agreement supposed to be silent?

55:44

Absolutely. She had an in what's

55:46

it called NDA right? An

55:50

agreement and when they

55:52

first questioned her she said no I don't know

55:54

the guy I never met him. And

55:56

then because she thought she was bound by that.

56:00

And then within a week, she changed and

56:02

said, well, it's not really true. I

56:05

thought I couldn't say anything. Here's the deal. And

56:07

that's what- I think

56:09

that's what Trump's referring to. He

56:12

went full otter this morning and

56:14

said, America's under attack. I'm not

56:16

gonna sit here and let the

56:18

fine rules of my relationship with

56:20

O'Hooker be violated by the law.

56:22

Well, so a non-disclosure agreement isn't

56:24

enforceable? I

56:27

don't know. I don't know. I'm not

56:29

such a lawyer. Joe is.

56:31

I just made that up. Oh. It

56:33

was in 50 Shades of Grey that did. All

56:38

right, next story, John. The

56:40

one book you've read really

56:42

doesn't allow you many opportunities

56:44

to weigh in on things.

56:46

It's not very germane to

56:48

anything. You didn't actually read

56:51

that, did you? Yeah. Did

56:53

you read that, Matthew? All three of them. I

56:55

remember him telling them that before.

56:58

Worst writing I've ever encountered, ever.

57:00

What did he know? Okay,

57:03

Shakespeare, thank you. He ducked sick. There's

57:07

something rocking in Denmark. Oh.

57:10

I don't think that has to be the Jesse voice. He

57:13

ducked the person who asked him why.

57:16

Oh my goodness. Supreme Court Justice Clarence

57:18

Thomas was absent from court this morning,

57:20

no explanation. The 75-year-old Thomas

57:22

was not taking part remotely in arguments

57:24

either, as justices sometimes do when

57:27

they're ill or can't be there in person. Chief

57:29

Justice John Roberts announced Thomas's absence, saying

57:31

his colleagues would still participate in the

57:33

day's cases based on the briefs and

57:35

transcripts of the arguments. Thomas

57:38

was hospitalized two years ago with an infection,

57:40

causing him to miss several court sessions. He

57:42

took part in cases then, too. He's

57:44

the longest serving of the current justices joining

57:47

the Supreme Court in 1991. After

57:51

reporting dismal first quarter sales, Tesla is planning

57:53

to lay off about one-tenth of its workforce

57:56

as it tries to cut costs. Ceo

57:58

Elon Musk Detailed the... Plans in a

58:00

memo sent to employees oil else could affect

58:03

about fourteen thousand of the one hundred forty

58:05

thousand workers employed by the company. At the

58:07

end of last year, it's shares of Tesla

58:09

fell three percent of the opening bell this

58:12

morning after the news broke. The so far

58:14

this year have lost about one third of

58:16

their value. On his does friends

58:18

and front and looks like a fish.

58:20

What's with that hello elon musk deal?

58:22

Anyhow, what about down or that the

58:24

wants to know about their sake? Of

58:27

that. Science

58:31

experiments are black cherry

58:33

frost from mom. All

58:35

good stuff. Screws.own. A

58:38

police officer and several bystanders being hailed

58:40

for running toward danger to confront in

58:42

attackers who stabbed and killed six people.

58:45

Were the suburban Sydney Australia shopping center

58:47

for the weekend. The shopping mall one

58:49

of the country's busiest a near the

58:51

world famous Bondi Beach, was a hub

58:53

of activity on Saturday afternoon when forty

58:55

year old joke couch he used a

58:58

nice to kill five women and one

59:00

man. He also injured at least a

59:02

dozen others, including a nine month old

59:04

baby whose mother died during the attack

59:06

before police officer shot. And dad New

59:08

South Wales Police confirmed Sunday couch

59:11

he had a history of mental

59:13

illness. Investigators work treating the attack

59:15

is terrorism related. Yes

59:17

or I was this, it didn't. They also

59:19

have of another situation Sidney. They

59:21

do. We have shirts the service has

59:23

to read this morning and these are

59:25

unrelated. The right Unrelated Yes, the number

59:28

would have been far higher according to

59:30

as Nsw Premier Christy Mins who on

59:32

Sunday praise the ordinary members of the

59:34

public that cornered and murdered in the

59:37

Western Shopping centre or talking to reporters

59:39

will standing outside the shopping mall means

59:41

underscored the role played by Inspector Amy

59:43

Scott. She was the first emergency responder

59:46

on the scene who shot and killed

59:48

Couch Eats and has been widely regarded

59:50

as. a hero in oh sure side

59:52

of the times the incident sparked controversy

59:55

on social media was some conservative commenters

59:57

calling it a terrorist attack saying the

59:59

murder was Middle Eastern. None

1:00:01

of that proved to be true. And

1:00:03

in one other instance, a Jewish man,

1:00:05

Ben Cohen was named as the perpetrator.

1:00:07

That also was not true. Apparently

1:00:10

he's looking at pursuing legal action

1:00:12

against the folks that

1:00:14

posted that online. What's

1:00:21

your problem? Why

1:00:24

is there this problem? Why is that the

1:00:26

deciding factor if someone's going to be outraged

1:00:28

or not? Five women are dead. Five

1:00:32

women are dead, one man. Okay, forget

1:00:35

it. Sorry. I had a brain

1:00:37

glitch. At

1:00:41

least 43 people shot seven fatally

1:00:43

in gun violence across Chicago this

1:00:45

weekend. The big one, Kenny

1:00:47

mentioned this earlier on Saturday night, a mass shooting

1:00:49

on Chicago's south side left at least 11 people

1:00:52

shot, including four children. The

1:00:55

victims included seven adults, four children, a nine year

1:00:57

old girl shot in the head was later pronounced

1:00:59

dead at the hospital. A one

1:01:01

year old boy was shot twice in the

1:01:04

abdomen taken to a hospital in critical condition.

1:01:06

An eight year old boy shot in the

1:01:08

abdomen left with critical injuries. The adult victims

1:01:10

ages ranged from 19 to 14.

1:01:13

No one yet is in

1:01:15

custody in that shooting. Area

1:01:17

detectives say they are investigating

1:01:19

the various shootings around Chicago

1:01:21

this weekend. Can

1:01:23

you pin down the area where that was

1:01:25

a little more? Where's the south side? Yeah,

1:01:29

that's all I have. Chicago south side. I do

1:01:32

not have a truly unreasonable. Just, it's

1:01:37

just two worlds. There's a dividing

1:01:39

line somewhere. It has to be a east west

1:01:41

street. I don't know which street it would be,

1:01:44

but it's a

1:01:46

no man's land. It's thanks,

1:01:49

John. Thank you. Well,

1:01:52

and on that note, did you, uh, you

1:01:56

sent some stuff out, social media

1:01:58

on, uh, you were, What

1:02:00

did you do with your Grundhofer's brats? My

1:02:03

Grundhofer's brat. What I did is I got out the cry

1:02:05

file. Stop. If

1:02:07

you ever include me in one of these

1:02:09

things again, I'm coming down there. These

1:02:12

you got at the white bear, the new

1:02:14

white bear store, uh, for Grundhofer's

1:02:16

it's on highway 96 and Birch Lake square.

1:02:18

You were there for the Easter ham and

1:02:21

you loaded up on brats. Now I think

1:02:23

you've been getting some criticism for what you

1:02:25

did. What did you do? I'll help you.

1:02:28

I chopped up an onion. I

1:02:30

put a bottle of Kona beer

1:02:32

in the crock pot and

1:02:35

dropped the six or

1:02:37

seven brats in there and let them cook on

1:02:39

low for about five hours and

1:02:41

it's softened. Just in water. Oh, just in

1:02:44

beer. Yeah. In beer and one beer.

1:02:46

And it softens them, uh,

1:02:48

to the point where they are, they taste delicious.

1:02:50

It's a different than a, than a snap that

1:02:52

you'd get on the grill, but they're still juicy.

1:02:54

They don't lose any juice because you're not draining

1:02:56

it on the grill. And then you can brown

1:02:59

them up if you want to on the

1:03:01

grill for five minutes. And that way

1:03:03

you did well on the black. In

1:03:05

theory, he did everything correctly. However, on

1:03:08

his Twitter post, he said, yes,

1:03:11

Grundhofer's Joe Sussure, five hours in

1:03:13

the crock pot on the at

1:03:16

blackstone for five minutes, meaning his

1:03:18

grill. However, the company he tagged

1:03:20

is blackstone, the world's largest alternative

1:03:23

asset manager, learn more on LinkedIn

1:03:25

at blackstone on social media. If

1:03:27

you use Grundhofer's backfired on you,

1:03:30

didn't it? Really?

1:03:32

Yeah. If you use Grundhofer's old fashioned meats or enjoy them,

1:03:34

you can have this kind of

1:03:40

fun too, trying to post that

1:03:42

make no sense. This

1:03:44

is not Matthew. This is not a lovable

1:03:46

trait about you. Okay. I'm just telling you

1:03:48

on Twitter. This is what

1:03:51

makes people hate you. Okay. I don't think anyone

1:03:53

hates me. Oh, there are. Oh, let me know.

1:03:58

Let's not have any hating. about

1:04:00

Grundhofer's. You made me LOL

1:04:03

with your wonderful Grundhofer's train.

1:04:05

I enjoyed it very much.

1:04:07

There's the flagship store just

1:04:10

a mile north of Hugo or so on Highway 61,

1:04:13

Grundhofer's old-fashioned meets. There's the store in

1:04:16

Forest Lake just east of

1:04:18

35E on Highway 97

1:04:21

and the new store on 96 between

1:04:24

35 and say Highway 61 on Highway 96

1:04:26

going into White Barret's

1:04:30

in the Birch Lake Square. Every

1:04:33

store is loaded with the same

1:04:35

wonderful broths, steaks, ham, bacon, Bitcoin

1:04:37

advice, cheese, you name it. They've

1:04:40

got everything. I was pleased

1:04:42

to see your attempt to

1:04:45

whatever you did in those broths because it

1:04:48

sounded good to me. Yeah, well even though

1:04:50

I attempted to give the blackstone grill. Now,

1:04:52

serious question. When you brown them, does that

1:04:54

give a snap back to the skin of

1:04:56

the bratwurst? Yes,

1:04:59

but it's not

1:05:01

the same. It's a

1:05:03

different snap. It's not as intense as a different

1:05:05

snap. It's a looser snap. It's a looser snap.

1:05:07

It's not that snap snap. No,

1:05:09

because that's part of what brats dry

1:05:12

out because there's

1:05:14

a hole in them and they lose all their juice,

1:05:16

but blackstone, please follow me,

1:05:19

you've got 134,000 followers. Why do you keep plugging them?

1:05:25

What is blackstone? What's going

1:05:27

on with you? What's the

1:05:30

alternative motive? If

1:05:33

Grunhofer's sold it, I would say it's the hottest

1:05:36

grill in town. It's not the hottest grill

1:05:38

in town. The hottest grill

1:05:40

in town is your grill, whatever grill you

1:05:42

have, to use your

1:05:44

Grunhofer's old fashioned meats. It

1:06:00

doesn't look like it will be this Friday.

1:06:02

We're heading towards a cooling off, but when

1:06:04

we have that garage door

1:06:06

opener, you know who's going to be right

1:06:09

there with us? Precision garage door between cities.

1:06:11

That's right. And they will sponsor that opener.

1:06:14

I, Brooke, I have a big, big

1:06:16

problem. What do you got? I

1:06:18

can't find a sheet of openers. Wait,

1:06:21

I made you a copy last year. I know, and I

1:06:23

don't know what happened. It's got to be posted up there.

1:06:25

No, well, I have either, you

1:06:27

probably have the original, but I have a copy of

1:06:29

it. I think at home, and I

1:06:31

made it for this specific reason. Good.

1:06:34

Could you prove it to me and

1:06:36

say the odds are that that piece

1:06:39

of zero, that piece of paper, let

1:06:41

me transferred internally into the York arms.

1:06:43

Zero. Okay. What

1:06:45

is our lady? So you're an optimist. That's why I

1:06:48

need the sheet. I think we've

1:06:50

been lost. May. Yeah, I do.

1:06:52

I recall a late May. In

1:06:55

fact, wasn't there one right

1:06:57

before? Cause he, remember the one that happened and

1:06:59

he wasn't here because it was Memorial weekend. Much

1:07:03

the way you make up the show numbers just

1:07:05

randomly. Why don't you just make up a bunch

1:07:07

of dates? I'm not making up the show numbers

1:07:09

today was 1,287. We

1:07:12

have the rookie version of the game of

1:07:15

Scrabble. Oh, oh, what is it? Scrabble

1:07:17

is food based. Scrabble has launched

1:07:19

a new, less intimidating version. Oh, I

1:07:21

thought it was going to be like

1:07:23

food. And

1:07:27

hammock, you know, hammocking with your wife.

1:07:29

This game has been around for 75

1:07:31

years and now they've decided that, uh,

1:07:34

the most letters you can use in

1:07:36

one word is three. If

1:07:39

you find words intimidating this new

1:07:41

game for you and you're famous

1:07:43

for saying bleep that word. Never

1:07:46

use that word. Scrabble. Well,

1:07:49

the aim, the aim is to,

1:07:51

uh, is to bring people together.

1:07:55

And uh, and, and,

1:07:57

you know, let's say you're laying around on a

1:07:59

hammock. somebody you could get

1:08:02

out the Scrabble game and they've

1:08:04

come up with words that just

1:08:07

don't bother anybody. They're not intimidating.

1:08:09

Like he, him, she, her. You

1:08:12

know I remember the origin of bleep that word

1:08:14

in fact you were because it was when we

1:08:16

were all still in the studio you

1:08:19

were sitting right next to Joe and he said something

1:08:21

like obfuscate or anything one of

1:08:23

his bit and you said that word

1:08:27

no what was the word in in

1:08:30

segregation not in segregation I can't remember

1:08:32

macro ovation or something like that and

1:08:34

I didn't know what the word when

1:08:36

you called Brian Wilson's music

1:08:39

lush it was lush I was like what

1:08:41

the hell is that what does that mean?

1:08:45

I don't think I've ever I've never played

1:08:47

Scrabble but isn't the objective

1:08:49

to you come up the

1:08:51

players come up with the word I gave

1:08:53

up on the story because it didn't I

1:08:56

can't find anything in here that explains to me what

1:08:58

they mean by that. Yeah I've been reading it too

1:09:00

and I don't get it. I don't get it so

1:09:03

I don't know what count I mean what if you

1:09:05

put a word that's intimidating would that count? Yeah.

1:09:08

Well I was playing you you might

1:09:10

say nope intimidating word. Would

1:09:13

it be easier to accumulate points

1:09:15

is that the whole point behind this?

1:09:17

They add a second side to the

1:09:20

board that is a collaborative and faster

1:09:22

pace to make gameplay more accessible. That's

1:09:25

it right there collaborative it's not competitive. Oh then use

1:09:27

a big word for it. Instead

1:09:29

of competing players

1:09:31

collaborate to complete goal

1:09:34

cards and there are

1:09:36

higher cards if assist there are helper

1:09:38

cards if assistance is required so

1:09:40

it sounds like you take one of

1:09:42

these right to the twitch farm. What

1:09:44

they should do is they should have

1:09:46

like operation a little buzzer that your

1:09:48

fingers are attached to so if you

1:09:50

spell something wrong they have to be

1:09:52

happy a little bit. I see this

1:09:54

failing so fast that I

1:09:56

think you should buy one keep it in

1:09:58

the wrapper Give it to your

1:10:01

youngest grandchild until open this up or

1:10:03

sell this in 80 years. It

1:10:05

will be worth a million. Yeah, this will

1:10:07

be worth a million dollars. They're all on

1:10:10

pins and needles because a new Taylor Swift

1:10:12

album. Oh. Dave Hughes. You

1:10:14

got my email, did you? I'm way ahead

1:10:17

1:10:19

You know, usually Joe, usually

1:10:21

what happens when an artist comes out

1:10:23

with a new album usually... Thursday night,

1:10:25

midnight, 11 p.m. All right Kenny? I

1:10:27

thought I was informing you. No,

1:10:30

1:10:32

the hammock? Yeah. Usually what happens

1:10:35

when an artist releases a new album, a

1:10:37

new concert tour is then you

1:10:39

get a... That's right. Uh-oh.

1:10:43

Back my popular demand. No. Here's

1:10:46

how you do it. If you save

1:10:48

a hundred... no make that a thousand

1:10:50

dollars every paycheck you'll be

1:10:52

able to afford. I've

1:10:55

done my duty. You

1:10:58

know, this could almost be like a movie, a trilogy. You

1:11:01

know, you could just keep doing this over and over

1:11:03

again. He set the bar too high. It's a really

1:11:05

good time. This is on you. Yep.

1:11:08

Scott County and Carver County.

1:11:10

I'm very familiar. They're adjoining,

1:11:12

aren't they? Mm-hmm. They're

1:11:14

next to each other. Yeah, yes, yes. Separated

1:11:17

by the... Did adjoining throw you? I guess we

1:11:19

won't have that on the news today. Yeah, not

1:11:21

gonna be able to play that game. So

1:11:24

Congress has approved 500 grand

Trail and Riverbed Stabilization

1:11:32

Project, which will connect

1:11:44

the money. The

1:11:47

project will build a series of four bridges

1:11:50

over a 2.4 mile stretch

1:11:52

across the Minnesota River,

1:11:54

connecting other existing trails to create

1:11:56

a link between the trail systems of Scott

1:11:59

and Carver County. Okay, but it's

1:12:01

gonna cost 22 million for how

1:12:03

much? Federal. $22

1:12:06

million. Federal

1:12:08

dollars, Joe, or state? No,

1:12:12

we or Scott and Carver is gonna have to come

1:12:14

up with 22.5 million. So

1:12:19

the feds, you know, they're taking a bow because they kicked

1:12:21

in 500. It's all your money. The feds don't have no

1:12:23

money. All right. And so

1:12:25

I don't understand this. Are you familiar with this

1:12:27

trail? Very familiar, but the only thing I... Is

1:12:30

it a biking trail? It's both. It's multipurpose. But

1:12:32

the only thing I can think of is, and

1:12:35

Kenny would know this, that area floods really bad

1:12:37

every stream. Yeah, is that the same trail I

1:12:39

used to ride on Snowmobile in the winter? I

1:12:42

can't... I don't know for sure. I'd get

1:12:44

on it on Highway 41... Highway Snowmobile? Yeah. On

1:12:47

sled. I'd get on it Highway

1:12:49

41 there at Chaska and ride

1:12:52

the upriver. Potentially,

1:12:54

but I guess I can't speak for certain, Kenny.

1:12:56

I'm not sure. All right. The

1:12:58

end carver will become trail destinations

1:13:02

and it's going to be pretty and lovely

1:13:04

and everything. It's only going to

1:13:06

cost $22.5 million. That's it? It's a

1:13:08

bargain. It's too bad the worst governor in

1:13:10

the state's history blew the $18 billion. If

1:13:13

you could slip $22 million out of that, it

1:13:16

wouldn't even be a pocket change. It

1:13:19

looks like part of it did come from the state. There's

1:13:23

11 different sources for funding, including

1:13:25

at least $4 million in state

1:13:27

capital funding. Happy to pay

1:13:29

more for a better Minnesota. I don't

1:13:31

see those signs anymore. I

1:13:34

think everyone's seen the light. They're

1:13:36

already paying more. I still have that letter

1:13:38

to the email. We got so much enjoyment

1:13:40

out of, we get what we pay for.

1:13:43

Remember that, Jim? Oh yeah.

1:13:45

Oh yeah, she was happy that her taxes were high, right? Yep.

1:13:49

Only because brought to you by

1:13:52

renewal by Anderson, the finest replacement

1:13:54

windows in the business, only

1:13:56

1:13:58

1:16:18

merge their joint venture and they were

1:16:21

gonna call it the DFL right and

1:16:23

a slate of candidates was quickly chosen

1:16:26

to meet the filing deadline two days

1:16:28

later the Democratic Farmer

1:16:30

Labor Party which no longer
