Gone South has been a podcast about crime in the American South. But for our new season, we're widening the lens. Follow and listen to Gone South Season 5, available now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your shows. Tom Giordano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, it is Dom time. You heard congressman sessions there, and that was on CNN. And for once, I think they're on the right side of it. I mean, come on. Boots on the ground are men, in this case, probably not women, but men taking over that island facility and the Strait of Hormuz. Apparently, the Strait of Hormuz, we've hit it with everything that might hit underground bunkers with missile launchers. So why is traffic not flowing through? Well, it's not flowing through as much as we can understand it. The point is... insurance company is not going to go for it. People are not going to risk it if they're not insured. Even with protection, it's a dangerous thing. You're dealing with hundreds of millions of dollars of vessels and the like. They can have speedboats. They can have anything. So it seems to be what some are pointing to. The only way to remove that in the real world is, oh, by the way, the Fed is hold rate steady. This guy, I think he's done in May. My goodness, cut the rates. Let's get moving here. The midterms on the horizon. So this is the essential question. How do we move past this? And the bottom line right from the beginning has been militarily, it's over for Iran. It never was even a question. The Navy, the missile launchers, they seem to be diminishing, but they still have enough. Some of them underground. to cause trouble. You see it periodically. And they have, you know, come up with their Trump card. The Strait of Hermuz again is a sore point. I don't even know how much of anything is getting through there at this point. Francis said they won't help now. And Trump is right about this. I'm more on that side. Their argument is, well, we didn't want to get into this conflict. Well, guess what? We're all in it now because they're blocking things that are vital to you. More so than us. We have energy independence of a sort. That memo hasn't gotten over there to the Sonoco station on Rittenhouse Street. I haven't checked if they've jumped it up a little bit more today after what we talked about yesterday. I think I see 384 boxes put up, and I think that's an average now. which is really creeped up, and it will continue to do that a little bit, whether or not things, well, again, we've been hitting these missile sites with bunker busters. These are the sites that are critical to the Strait of Hormuz. And we all remember when we took out these various militia groups, remember they were, the hoodies, they were attacking all the shipping. This was the Red Sea at that point, right? It was our expertise, our military, that did tremendous damage to them and that calmed down. So we helped out the European countries again. So even though they were not on board with this, and yes, it's true, Trump pushes back on them and rightfully so when it comes to paying their fair share with NATO, now's the time for them to step up. The only thing I'll say is, though, as best I can tell, even if they provided warships, etc.,

3:44

That doesn't seem to be the issue. Maybe they have better mine sweepers. It's a small thing, but it might be the case. The issue is, what is it that's going to reassure these companies to send their vessels through there? So that brings up the cut I played you. Well, we should just go in and secure both that island and the Strait of Hormuz. And the Anna Kelly from the White House, I mean, I'm only going by several reports that 2,500 Marines headed that way or there now and maybe another 2,500. You know what they're there for, what it's about. They're there to be a force to invade Hormuz and maybe the other island. And I'm sure the Iranians are not going to put up ferocious resistance. It doesn't appear to be that way. They'd be bombed first. But. The odds are we're going to have people that are going to be wounded or killed in those operations. And this is another escalation. What date do you carry around in your mind? Joe of Columbus really hit upon something today when he said, you know, we all look at this. It's around the corner. Memorial Day. I would be okay until Memorial Day. You need patience to continue this. Remember the argument at the beginning was four to six weeks, which seemed reasonable. We haven't even gotten to that, and we flattened them. But that doesn't mean they can't continue to carry this on. Japan was decimated. Japan was hit with the first nuclear bomb and still carried on until Nagasaki was hitting. And even then, it was the emperor who stopped Tojo and the others from continuing the war. I think they're every bit as fanatical, and they're used to, if they have in their head, that they're the ones, they don't care how long it takes. They have forever. We don't. And they carry that around with them. So how long will we sustain something like this? And if this starts to bleed into the midterms and what's going to happen there, then Republicans don't have a chance. It really, this is not going to be a war where victory is going to be parades and celebration and all that. It's not that type of thing. It's a great thing for the world, 47 years of this, stopping their nuclear weapons, stopping intercontinental ballistic missiles. But you're not going to see that type of celebration over this. It's not mass armies. It's not that. It's not on the home front other than the economy and oil. So I'd love to get you in, 855, 833, 9, 12, 10. Israel has taken out Iran's intelligence minister. We keep on taking out the infrastructure here. But what does it matter as far as an end to this? And the answer is completely unclear at this point. All right, we also have been talking about, and I have not seen anything more going on. I think the SAVE Act vote will be. We're trying to get Scott on. I know he's in the middle of all these meetings with any number of people in Washington. He'll definitely be on tomorrow after the dust settles. If I had a bet, I think these rhinos are not even going to get the talking filibuster passed. What in the world would be wrong with the talking filibuster? Nothing. It's not changing the rules.

7:23

The rules were changed to allow them to say, filibuster, filibuster, then not have to talk. Yeah, they might be able to talk for weeks. I told you how you tag in, you get two shots. They might be able to do that. So what? At the end of that, then we'll have a straight up and down vote on the issue of the SAVE Act. Now Democrats trying to tell America, well, we're not against photo ID. Of course you are. It's just the citizenship part. and trying to continue that farce. And that's where there's more danger right now with people that are here illegally voting. And we know pretty much they're going to vote for Democrats. All right. 855, 839, 1210, AT&T, and Verizon Wireless, all you have to do is push pound 1210. Let's go to Chris in Ben Salem, Chris waiting on talk radio 1210. Hey, Chris, afternoon to you. Hi, Dom. How are you? Good, Chris. Regarding the 2,500 Marines, one of the other reasons I heard is they would be used to board Iranian tankers and they're still getting through the streets or removes to cut off their exports. And the Marines have viewed its trade like that. In fact, that's what the Marines were originally designed for back in 1776. Well, look, I could see that, Chris, but even then, we believe they wouldn't have military. They wouldn't return fire. So what I'm just saying is it's minimal, but, you know, when people die, they die in these situations. Oh, yes. There's always risk in those endeavors. What I'm saying to you, Chris, is why would we not just blow up the ship? Well, mainly because it would be the ecological disaster. You know what? I have to say, Chris, without seeing that up and down the line, I'm blowing up the ship. I'm not putting their lives at risk. If there's a pretty good danger, they'll be killed, some Marines. Yeah, well, there might be a way to disable it without, you know, spilling the oil, I don't know. Also, my list, I was going to mention that George Carlin's list of seven dirty words. Oh, that's a great one. And, you know, that's gone by the wayside. First time I saw Chris, George Carlin, I couldn't believe how good this guy was. I don't remember the exact show. I'd have to go back. And I'm thinking this guy is unbelievable. particularly the catholic stuff that he did and all and the the seven words you can't say yes Yeah, you're a classic. Yeah, definitely. That is a really good one. That is a great one as far as a list. That's what we're looking for in honor of the FBI most won it list being dropped in the last couple days, the anniversary of it. Okay, get on board. And again, boarding the ships. I get it. We want the oil. We don't want an ecological. That may be, but it's mainly, that's a drop in the bucket, stopping the Iranians from getting through.

10:37

It's mainly about restoring the world economy that comes through here. The help of other nations, I don't know, a minesweeper here and there, apparently they might have kept up on this better than us. Okay. But it's more about getting people to believe they can get through without being blown up, without having severe damage or being sunk. And the insurance world is a big part of that. How do we do that? So the alternative is to take both sides of Harmuz, secure that, and also to secure the island so the Iranians can't blow that up where their oil infrastructure is. Saddam Hussein did it. So that's always a possibility, I guess. But as far as taking out their leadership, As far as taking out their military, their Navy, et cetera, already done. Check, check, check. What's left? That's the thing that's left. But that's where the boots on the ground comes in. All right, first up, before we get to all that, it is time for... It's Dobbs, Money Melody! Asola MoneyCon. All right, today we're playing for a pair of tickets to Mozart's Requiem, April 9th at the Kimmel Center's Marion Anderson Hall, courtesy of Ensemble Arts, Philly. Tickets are available at Ensembleartsfilly.org. All right, Henry. Yeah, so side question today, we're asking for those all-time lists. Right. The song, Kokomo by the Beach Boys, I mean, simply put, is a list of tropical destinations. So I'm going to play you a cover of Kokomo today. I want to know the language in which it's being covered in. Now, something about this language, and it's a country of origin here. I'd say one of their most famous lists from that country is when Martin Luther famously posted his list, a 95 thesis, on the door of the All Saints Church on Halloween night. Was it 95 you said? Yes. I don't know why I thought it was 99. It seemed better. That would seem better. You think you'd get the four. Come on, four more, Martin Luther. Imagine this guy had such stuff penned up. pen up that he put 95 of the trees oh yeah just going off ran out of paper yeah that's it yeah yeah yeah so he he posted that list uh october 31 15 17 on the the door of the all saints church i want to know uh from one list to another which language or the country of origin which this cover of Kokomo hails from stick a listen all right yeah how well do you know you're martin luther where did he come from that's where this song comes from no language or country okay 855 839 1210 underrated figure one of the most consequential figures in history i don't know if the doors were painted red then or not that he put them on i don't think so then may have come later

13:41

AT&T and Verizon Wireless, you just push pound 1210. Hit us with that. You get the belt today and you're headed off to downtown Philadelphia for a great night with Mozart's Requiem here on Talk Radio 1210. Hey y'all, I'm Maddie. And I'm Poodle. And together, we host the podcast Reality Gays. We are two ridiculous homosexuals who love nothing more than talking about reality television and tearing in a new one.

Follow and listen to Reality Gays wherever you get your podcast. I'm Giordano on Talk Radio 1210. WP.Ht. It's Dom, money melody. Where has all the money gone? Show me to my. All right, looking for the country or the language here. Here's the clue of a very famous Beach Boys song.

15:05

All right, let's try Bill in Monko to start out. Hey, Bill, what's your answer today? Hey, Tom. It would be Germany. Nice to go. Absolutely right. Yes. And I have been there. It's in Wittenberg, Germany. I actually saw the door. Yes. It's not the original of the door, but on that church where that happened by Martin Luther. Yeah, why did he stop at 95? Do we know? Well, I don't know, but he might have had another incentive the BEX communicated because he was a priest and he left the Catholic Church and then he married the next none. Oh, yeah. There might have been more than the 95 thesis to the whole thing. Gotcha. The indulgences, selling indulgences, I think, has always been a biggie, you know. 50,000 purgatory, 75, heaven. Okay. Guys were walking around. They had the power to give you an indulgence, and they were selling them. At least I remember that's one of the things that infuriated. There might be other things associated with it. All right. Now, in the testimony today, there's been a lot of testimony. We have the debate, Save America Today Act going on in the Senate. Nothing to report more on that yet. But the Intelligence Committee today, and then we had the showdown with Markwayne Mullin and Rand Paul. But Tulsi Gabbard, you know, the media I'm making a lot of this. Let me break it down for you. I think they're playing with this Joe Kent guy. Remember that guy quitting and saying, nope, he can't take this anymore. Israel's war, all that nonsense. He's a darling, even though they used to call him a neo-Nazi connected with that group. Tulsi Gabbard, they know, is pretty much not involved with this war. she would be anti this. So they wanted to know in her intelligence gathering. She gathers from all the intelligence agencies. And then I guess there was a lot of debate that she make a point saying, all right, what does this mean, Mr. President, taking all of this, what does it point to? And here's what it comes down to. Imminent threat. And Tulsi Gabbard gave the right answer, I think. Who gets to determine in the end? If something like what's going on in Iran is an imminent threat, personal and imminent threat is a broad enough term. But, you know, I think we can all agree. It means sooner rather than later. It means a matter of months, not years, right? I think we could come up with that. Well, who was elected to determine that? Not the CIA, not the director of intelligence, not Pete Hegseth. There's only one person. The president of the United States, in the end, isn't that what Americans are electing? The judgment of the president of the United States, particularly in a time frame that might be kind of compressed or limited. You don't have all day. There might be something that demands immediate action. I'd say that, and to me, we've had it this over the years. It didn't used to be this way, but due to the politics of it. The other part of it is with the president, his determination of who to put up for the Supreme Court. That matters. Sadly, the Supreme Court shouldn't matter as much, but it does. These are the things that we're testing, and people are relying on the judgment of the president. Now, if it's bad, if it's corrupt, if it's compromised, what do we have? Impeachment.

18:40

And if they take back the House, they will impeach the president again. Well, they'll do nothing else to run out the clock during his term. Second part of his term. But what's wrong with the Tulsi Gabbard answer? The only one elected to do this to say, yes, that is an imminent threat. Yeah, but all the experts are, this is exactly wrong. The president is the one. The president is the expert. It's his judgment there. Now we can get into Congress, war powers, and all that. We're not anywhere near the 60 days yet that this has evolved. It's the president ultimately. This is the power in the president. He deems this an imminent threat. Well, what's a recourse if this guy's just doing this for whatever reason? He says imminent threat and it's not. Who else is going to determine it's an imminent threat? You can mail all kinds of evidence, have all kinds of experts, bring all this stuff in, and then the American people would have to decide. But so far, at least the base and Republicans in general have determined that President Trump was right. that this was an imminent threat. We have added more to it today. And what do we add to it today? We added to John Ratcliffe talking about how close they were to having ballistic missiles, intercontinental ballistic missiles. Okay. That adds. That's a nugget you have to put out there. With the nuclear stuff, no, we're not going to roll the dice repeatedly. I say that's not imminent. They might get it two months from now, a month from now. Guess what? That's imminent enough. The whole thing's imminent to me. They're going to get the message. You're not going to get this. Now, deep down, I realize they're fanatics, and they're going to keep at it. So I'm going to have to keep doing this in some way, shape, or form to stop them from getting it. Can I do it 100 percent? That's what I'm going to strive for, because they can't have a nuclear weapon. All right, so I think this was a big moment today with Tulsi Gabbard trying to get at this was not imminent. Democrats just cannot get on board with this. Look, I understand the politics. They want to say that Trump is, let's put out a reasonable debate, been all over the place and what he said the reason was. But you can't be rooting and constantly. not hoping we can get this to some kind of end with fewer casualties and get out of there. They're not doing that. They are aiding and abetting and giving the Iranians some help psychologically that if they stick at this long enough, they're outlasts us, and they're hoping this runs out. I don't think they're hoping we get out of there. They hope this goes on past Memorial Day. It's all about the midterms. But who is it that gets elected to say, in the end, it's a judgment call. I judge this is an imminent thing with the Iranians. I'd say it's the president and only the president. We're not electing a bunch of experts, no matter how good they are. You think Americans are saying, let's see now. John Ratcliffe will be there. Pete Hegseth will be there. Marco Rubio will be there.

22:09

Now, a president can say, hear the type of people I would have around me giving me the information I need. You factor that in. But I'm not going to say, all right, you would have Marco Rubio and Biden would have his brigade of, shall we say, less than competent. And I'm going to vote for what Biden would do here. Well, it's Biden's decision. Well, he's not making many decisions and certainly not on something like this, not at the granular level. It's the president. That's what it's about. That's why it's so important. That is under debate right now. They're running with that. If you don't think, based on the evidence that we know that Iran was imminent here, Israel certainly did, and they were going to do it. And I think we made the right decision. The only thing is, this is not Venezuela. You know, trying to say you're going to beat these people, and that'll be it, doesn't work that way. Joe of Exton, Joe, on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Joe. Oh, yes. Hello, Dom. And good afternoon. Good afternoon, Joe. And the Catholic Church, the stations of the cross are a list of the torturous segments that Christ had to endure. he arduously carried the cross along the road to Golgatha. Definitely, Joe. That's a big one. I had the pleasure when we took about 40 listeners to Israel. How many years ago was that? Was it eight or ten? Ten maybe? To walk the stations of the cross. And to the best of the ability of experts, et cetera. It is remarkable when you're doing it. Come on. The stations of the cross. The Holy Sepulchre. Yeah. All right. I don't know if we've gotten a home run yet. It is with that all-time list. The FBI's most wanted list came down. The anniversary of it in the last couple of days. 855-839-1210. And classic case today tells me when people don't call about it, they're kind of maybe agreeing with me, but afraid to admit it. Markwayne Mullin and Rand Paul. Mullen admitted he said what he said about he understood why this guy really nailed Ron Paul and the injuries that Paul read off were unbelievable. Look, Rand Paul is annoying at times. There's no doubt. I mean, you know around him, I had him here when he was running for a president. All he, at any moment, you know, he's not a guy that there's an edge there. I get it. But you understand why that guy almost cripple him, and he wouldn't apologize for it. That's out of line. Should have apologized. Should have said, yeah, I don't like you. You know that. We hate each other. Okay. But in a public sense. I shouldn't have said I understand why that guy would attack you and give injuries that are extensive. All right. 855, 839, 12, 10, grab a line. Every week on the Moth podcast, real people tell their stories live on stage. I boast into teas.

25:42

And I wasn't sure if I was crying because I hadn't been kissed in a really long time or if I had just never been kissed like that before. To hear fascinating, heartbreaking, and sometimes hilarious stories from astronauts, teachers, farmers, and people just like you, follow and listen to the moth wherever you get your podcasts. All right, it is Tom time. We'll get to your calls. Hit us with that all-time list. I'm watching Rand Paul during that break say he will not put for Markwayne Mullin, anger problems, etc. I just thought it was a moment today where Mullen should have just apologized and said, now, given the severity of this and all, I shouldn't have said that. Not understanding that. We have differences here. I hate you. You hate me. Something like that. But no, I'm not wishing. The injuries he suffered when we had him here talking about his book was just unbelievable. I mean, and as a doctor, he laid them out today. So I think Mowen is going to be appointed. And I think he's a step up from Kristi Noem and the nonsense that happened there. I would have rather seen Tom Homan. But I think Tom Homan, I guess, is going to still just be the czar of the border slash illegal immigration. We had a great guest yesterday from the Heritage Foundation saying she constantly is trying to keep members of Congress on board. Trump won in 2024. And he did say mass deportation. And the first year or so was good, but then now it seems to be in a hiatus. And when is that going to move forward? But we are in these today, we are definitely, it was a critical day for what happens next. It's clear to me and I ran. In other words, we're seeing every effort to open shipping through the straight and it's not getting done. And we've decimated them, but they still, the fear is there. And I think it's a legit fear. It's a calculus. They have the ability to blow up major shipping. Drones, their missiles, what remnants are there, speedboats, God knows what. How do we get that resolved? You can say we're just going to put warships in there. We're going to do it. And that doesn't seem to still the waters enough to do it. So we're getting this boots on the ground stuff in several quarters. And of course, they deny its boots on the ground. That always happens with this. But I think that was a major moment here with Tulsi Gabbard. You're going to see more of that over the next couple days. The Democrats are seriously trying to challenge. that this was an imminent threat. And the reason is this. We all know this. Think of our own experience. There are people in the world you want to look the other way. I'll give you one with the Eagles, okay? They're star wide receiver. Well, maybe stars. You want to look the other way? All right, this guy really adds something. Can we put up with it? I think the Eagles have decided they can't put up with it anymore. All right?

29:15

I think they're right. It's got to be overwhelming, but even then, can you really put up with it? So with Iran, can we put up with the fact of what they were doing, how close they were getting, but there's another factor here. The Israelis are saying, nope, after October 7th, we can't put up with it. So that adds to this. And the evidence is clear how close they are to intercontinental and also a nuclear weapon. Democrats are wanting to die on this hill and tell the American people, ah, put up with it, we did it for 47 years. That's not imminent. What would be imminent? Hey, the Oval Office gets a call tomorrow, if we don't do something, Iran's going to have a nuclear weapon. Well, guess what? It's way too late. In all these circumstances, isn't it better to act even though it's painful than to wait? as we did with North Korea. They're actually challenging today, Warner, that genius, right? The challenge today, they're opening up a new front because they think Tulsi Gabbard is not on board with this, and she's probably not. And she said clearly, the president is the one that gets to decide what imminent is. That's a core of it, isn't it? Doesn't the president get to decide that? He's elected to make that judgment. And if he's wrong in the sense that people go, that's appalling, impeach him. That's the remedy. It's pretty simple. All right, let's go to Lance. I'm looking forward to yesterday we're kind of rushed. Hey, Lance, again, I was telling Henry after the show, thank you so much for going there and talking to these guys at the gas station. Gas buddy said they were 50 cents higher yesterday when they did this over in Rittenhouse than any in the area around them. That's pretty appalling. Well, Dom, you know why. You know why? They blame Trump, right? Well, one, but you know, the closer you get to Chestnut Hill, the more money, you know, the manicourt and the manicured laws, they got money. They don't care. Well, when I went by today, the time I go by is around 10, 15, 10, 20. There were at least four cars lined up, gassing up, and more pulling in. And I'm thinking, didn't you look at the sign saying 439 and 9 tenths? My God. Yes, and around the corner for me at 21st and past Shunk, I think it's 379 or maybe 389. Yeah, the difference is unbelievable. And like I said, now I'm at the gas station at Fox. at Fox and the Boulevard, and there at $3.98 and 9 tenths at the shell. Oh, man. That's a bad sign because that's a middle-class neighborhood. That tells me they're going to go to four in the next couple days. Are we going to see $5 here? Oh, God.

32:29

Well, I talked to a friend of mine of California. They're already there in certain parts. Right. Long Beach, California, though. You know what I mean? Lance, it's not. But maybe you're right. Maybe people just, I'm amazed that people want to burn money like that. I mean, does it take a little intelligence to avoid that gas station? I told you, the first lady was a snooty black lady. She had a bins. And she said she didn't care. Right. And it's the area. It's the area. You know, they're heading up Lincoln Drive. Yep. You know, they're in that upper crust. And they got money. They don't care. All right, then. Well, I guess these guys are ahead of the curve. So, Lance, what's your side today? But, you know, on the other side, the other side, on the other side is 399-10s. Okay. But my side is a list of demands. When a hijackers always hijack something, they have a list of demands, you know, like that. You know, more bologna sandwiches and, you know. or, you know, a whole of cheese or something. A list of demands. List of demands. List of demands is a good one. 855-839-12-10. That's how you can get in. That's what we're looking for here. A list. The FBI's most wanted list is famous. You don't know. They don't put it on TV that much. I don't know who's number one at this point. Usually it's somebody, Joy and Chessamar, I think is one of the most famous ever. She died ultimately in Cuba, right? After killing just a cop or was it a couple in, all right, I'm going to say it in central Jersey because that's what the news media always says. That's where it happened. So the FBI's most wanted the anniversary of them putting it out happened. That's where all this came from. I'm praying that Philadelphia is a little bit different. Fox still going with long airport wait times. And I think Atlanta's airport, I tell everybody I meet, don't fly through Frankfurt. God knows what Frankfurt would do with this situation. They're just ghastly. And I don't want to say it's just because of German mentality or something, but even Roe, who just, it's brutal. And they don't board. You don't go to a gate. They take you to a bus. You wait on the bus for another 15 or 20 minutes. Then they drive you to the tarmac to put you on. You got to wait. You got to get into precision. I've never had a worse airport experience than Frankfurt. Just brutal beyond belief. If there's a worse in the world. And I even flew in and had to get out. I was headed to, it was Casablanca. Their airport, they were cracking open ostrich eggs on the floor there. That wasn't as bad as going through Frank. What do you mean by that? Was that coconut? I don't know. I just thought I kept moving. I was just getting on it. I didn't want to see what it was. Like a big machete going down on it. I don't think it was a coconut. It looked like a giant egg to me or something.

35:43

Scramble ostrichet. Interesting. I didn't stop to ask. Can you imagine, can you tell me about that egg? It's sunny side up. What are you doing? Yeah, exactly. So I've seen some airports. That's the one I would avoid Frankfurt. All right, it is a lightning round. Let's get a great winner here. Outside the box, hit us with that all-time list on Talk Radio 12-10. Tom's Giordano on Talk Radio 1210. WPHT. The time has come for the final test. We usually call us the lightning round. All right, getting word to Shell Station at Tyson and Frankfurt Avenue. That's definitely middle class. They got the four up. Uh-oh, another area with the four going up. I don't want to encourage those guys over at the Sonoco. They might be taking that dustbin and getting that five out from the Biden days. Are we going to see $5 a gallon saved by this weekend? That Sonoco is ground zero for me because I go buy it enough and I used to get gas there. And you heard Lance, I love calls like that. It's the best of talk radio. You can tell me, we don't need gas, buddy. I love to hear the boots on the ground what you say about it. Watch for... This whole thing of Trump and this being imminent, what went on here. That's what Democrats were laying down today. And who's winning on this? Who has more to lose? Democrats are doing what they do. They're rooting against victory here. They're rooting against the economy. But I would tell you, due to the media, they're getting away with it. They're not on board with any of this because they want to say it's just all fraudulent. There was nothing imminent. Really? Okay. Let's go to Drew in Upper Darby. Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Drew. Hey, Dom, thanks a lot. I appreciate it. You know, Don, this is kind of outside the box. I just hope you remember. Dorn Desert Storm, I believe, circa in 1991. The Bush administration against Iraq, rather than having a list, they had a deck of cards. Each card denoted the power of the individual in the Iraqi regime. For example, the ace of spades was Saddam Hussein. Yep. I think their defense minister, Tariq Aziz, was like the ace of diamonds. Saddam's sons were the jacks. But each individual in the regime in the regime had a card according to their power. Got you. I appreciate it. The problem with this is we've killed all them. There's no more cards in the deck. We're down like the two of hearts. 52 card pickup. Yeah, 52 card pickup. We forgot them. And the next guy comes in and the next guy comes in. And the one guy is probably gay and disabled and all. And he's on a rope. Jeez. Yes. We need a new card deck here. That is a good one, though. Gary's up here twice. This guy must really want to get on. He's up here twice. And the board, Gary of Newtown on the big board. Hey, Gary.

Hey, guys. How are you? Good. Not exactly sure which phone I'm actually talking into, which means there's an echo, and I apologize. I can't even do... I use one phone for my sound effects for Henry, and I... Happy New Year. I can't do the science. Oh, well, wait a minute. We got to start. We'd have to make more time of the afternoon show. We need that happy New Year effect. But go ahead, Gary. I would like to say, can we get to get, we have a carpool start to get the Mulligans so we can take Drew, we can take Joe, we can take Robert, we can take... Gary, everybody. I'm in. I'm in. Yep, exactly right. We've got to get Zenos in there leading. Zenos is coming in into Greek chariot, I'm called. Zenos is going to fly in. Yeah. So I don't want to get solid. I want to get solemn here for a second. Can we not list how many more days we're in this? I'm good for Labor Day. I'm good for Memorial Day. Can we just say, how many lives do Americans have to lose before we think we had more time or less more time? That's because that we're talking about. Well, I would agree with you on that. That's the awful truth, Gary. And it's awful because... We are, we have decimated them militarily. We're killing the leadership. And yet, we're still going to lose more lives as this continues. And if we're energy independent, we did our job. We have the regime change. Let them figure it out. I would agree with that. That's what I'd be looking at right now, Gary. But, you know, it's complicated. So my side question is not a list. It's a table. And it's with our universe is built on. And it's the table or the periodic table of elements. There's 118 that we're all made up of somehow. Very good. Sounds like Breaking Bad here. I like Joanna's here. We didn't get this one yet. Joanna, how are you in Gloucester Township? What's yours? I'm doing great. Great show, as usual. Really thought-provoking show today. Dom, in honor of our great nation, the 250th birthday, My list is the 13 original colonies and the people who said enough of England, and we are going to form a nation with independence and bravery. That is my list. Thank you, Joanna. You know, I'm taking under advisement what Gary said there, though. It's more our losses versus a date certain, even though the two can kind of come together. The Earl of Tacconi, Earl, what's yours today?

I guess I could bring everybody to Mulligans if they don't mind being stuck like cordwood in the back of my truck. Sure. They're their cordwood aficionados. It'll be fun. You keep saying you want it outside the box. So I think I'm going to change my answer. I know you were really looking forward to the answer that's on the board. But I'm going to go with your kiss. Your kiss is on my list. Your kiss I can't resist. Your kiss is I can't resist. It's the best thing in life. All right. There you go. All right, Kirk, a lot to consider here. With that, so I'm going to go with Cresby and Ben Salem with George Carlin's list of dirty words. That was a great one just because I wanted to revive the legend of George Carlin. That's why we have that point. You know, and I don't think we've ever done on the side. It's like Crawford. The first time I saw her in that ad, the Pepsi ad with those kids, it was the same thing with George Carlin. The first time I saw him was like, it was like I saw Mickey Mantle stepping up to the plate. The scout said I was there scouting someone else. I saw Mickey Mantle. I couldn't believe it. I was like, oh, my God. Henry, yours? Yeah. How about the 730 words with George Carlin? It's Chris and Ben Salem's answer. I like Drew and Upper Derby's at the deck of cards and a little hollow notes to play us out. I like the Chris and Ben Salem. Let's put his name into the ring. So, Henry, Godspeed. What's your time or tell you at the airport right now? What's your wait? It only says a few minutes here, to be honest. The terminal says three minutes, but I'm sure they'll change at the afternoon. Oh, God. Let's hope it is three minutes in and out. By the way, legislation will get into this tomorrow to say that people in Congress have to stand in line. They can't bypass it and jump on the plane. Yeah, why should they be able to get aboard the plane? They should have to wait like everyone else. All right, afternoon show is next.
