That's why I like using chronometer. It makes it incredibly easy to actually see what you're eating and understand your nutrition on a deeper level. I especially appreciate that it tracks both soluble and insoluble fiber because they each play different roles in overall wellness, digestion, and metabolic health. What sets Chronometer apart for me is the accuracy and detail. A lot of tracking apps only focus on calories, but Chronometer gives you meaningful micronutrient data I can actually use. The platform is easy to use, reliable, and helps you make more informed nutrition choices without guesswork. If you want better insight into your nutrition during midlife and beyond, Download chronometer for free today at chronometer.com and start learning what your body may really need. Would you look at that? It's time for some of our favorite snapple real facts. Real fact 1433, toe wrestling is a competitive sport. Realtback 732, the chicken is the closest living relative of the Tyrannosaurus rex. And Realtback 1599, a man once ate an entire airplane. Yautch. Did he have any hot sauce? Yeah, so anyways, this has been a refreshing break brought to you by Snapple. Real tea, real juice. With Snaps is a new refreshing. Tom Chiodano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. It is, Dom time. Where are we? Where are we? What did we make of last night? Well, I'll tell you, in Wisconsin, don't go against Thanksgiving. Don't be it crazy. That's a holiday, apparently, maybe only second to Christmas is one takeaway. That's what happened to Ms. Hong. But in addition to that, don't fall around with Milwaukee. Milwaukee is a miniature Philadelphia. Remember Trump? Bad things happened in Philadelphia? Well, suddenly, USB drops. As soon as you hear that, correct. All right, wait a minute. Our vote tabulation is held up here. One of the odds of Democrat establishment had a hand in that because they didn't want this horrific candidate to win for obvious reasons. But does this calm down their DSA mobs? I would say no. As far as the polling,

3:05

I think people get a kick out of this, that the polls could be that much off. We constantly go back and forth. Look, well, we all use the polls and talk radio. It gives you some handle, maybe, on what's going on. But with the polling, two straight now, Michigan and then Wisconsin, what could have happened here? Well, one of the things that happens here with younger voters is they may be fired up. You may feel that as a pollster. the ones that you're hitting. And they're definitely going to be more in the DSA, the Hong side, than this guy Crowley. But particularly in the midterms or in a primary midterms, do they show up and vote? And the answer is no, it's an unreliable vote. That's why this idea of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in the coming midterms is going to be a generational election. We'll see. There's only one issue that I sort of believe it does it like that. And that is abortion, young women. We saw it with Josh Shapiro against Doug Masteriano. That's an issue that has play. But last night, I've seen her before. We saw this lieutenant governor in Minnesota unleashed running for the Senate, Peggy Flanagan, Peggy wearing a shirt saying protect trans with a knife on it. I just would like somebody in the media to ask, Who's a knife for? Is that gender affirming care? Or is that knife there to protect someone? Who's a knife for? All these other races, the pillow, my pillow guy and all, go home, stop it already. They don't matter. But what we saw play out in Wisconsin could have confidence. I don't think it's going to still. These voices, and I think they're operational in Philadelphia. I did go to this great Republican event last night, young Republicans, and Joe Becozy will be on, the guy that won at the age of what, 29 in northeast Philadelphia, but it was in a speak-easy. You had a woman at the door that has to take your name and all. I wasn't like Henry sent me. I was going to say that just to see what this woman would say. You don't have to say any kind of code to get in. But it was a real speakeasy at 15th and Samson with a guy on a piano like we were in the 20s. And just a great group, hope for the future with young Republicans. They couldn't answer why a burrito cost 20 bucks. But I did pick up. any number of other things. By the way, tomorrow, seeing where socialism goes, Bill Debblin will be with us from Cuba. That's right, Pastor Bill Debblin in Cuba for some youth development thing, I think for the next three or four days. And Bill Devin will give us a bird's eye view. of what it's like in Cuba. So don't miss that tomorrow. We'll get you the time. We'll get all that stuff going on. All right, it's 855-839-1210. It's AT&T and it's Verizon Wireless. All you have to do is just push pound 1210. All right. One quick item that's just starting to bubble up. And it affects everybody. I'm not even sure. I should have asked Diane Cardano if she's listening. If you are a real estate agent, the realtor.

Can you, I know in Jersey you can't. If you're in Pennsylvania, can you bring up the crime rate and the ratings on schools, all of which the ratings on schools are fraudulent. Can you imagine? Tell me about the schools here, Mr. Dom. We're out there. I'm selling a home in Philadelphia. They suck. Okay, thank you. And they're always going to suck. Oh, my kid won't be five for another four years. Good. Establish your home here and be looking for another one because they will suck and they will always suck. There is no hope. There is nothing else you can say. That's the only way to stop this. I'm mentioning this because it just came out yesterday that in their first week in office and the memo is out there. The Biden administration under penalty of law. issued this directive to real estate people telling them, this is DEI at its worst. They can't bring up crime rates or school ratings when talking about a home. And if asked, I think they're supposed to mumble and say nothing. And the directive says in order to create a more diverse society. These things are out of bounds. Now, can you imagine this form of censorship? Now, look, you could say, well, I'll just do it myself. Well, why should you have to do it yourself? And guess what? All the big outfits, I'm looking at this from the directive, Zwillow, Redfin. Outfits like that, the National Association of Realtors, put up a webpage in 2023 titled How Do We Handle Client Questions About Schools and Neighborhoods, which told realtors to point home buyers to other sources of information rather than providing them the facts themselves. So they all went along with. Why? I understand why. Why would the Biden people do this? Because this is what DEI does. This is what that party does, whether they're nuts like hung or just addled like Biden. You can't be answering those questions. Now, wouldn't they take into account the real estate agent wants to sell a home? Do you think the real estate agent is going to say what I said? Asking about crime, are you kidding me? Krasner is the DA. Hear those sirens when you came in? We're in Hunting Park here in Philadelphia. Oh, what can you tell me about crime? Look outside the window. But aside from that, think about it. Think about this mania to keep information from people. Are the Biden's going to live in a neighborhood like that? And this could be a telling factor for I once did, oh, I was on an overnight time. And I did it nationally, too. A whole show asking people a simple question. You had two homes. They were exactly rated the same value. What was it different in this development? And people were saying, one had a fireplace. You know, one had French stores, open it up in here, you know, stuff. It was nuts. Hundreds of answers. And the answer was this. They were on the same block. But one home, remember, this development that are of the same, was in.

10:14

Baltimore City, the other was in the county outside of Baltimore. It was that close to borderlines. Well, if you have to go to the Baltimore City schools, our chaplains are standing by. And if you're in the other county, they were decent. So right there, on paper, you see what the difference is. The idea being schools and crime matter to people. Well, what's the most reliable source? I don't care what you say it is. It's whatever sources people go to. And they want to ask the real estate agent a question. Is the real estate agent really going to talk down the neighborhood? They're out there selling a person. But this is how maniacal the Democrat Party has become. This was under Biden in the very first week. And it's just surfacing now how far this went. With this grand argument, this is all about creating more diversity, more equity in America. DEI, don't tell people the factual evidence, and you should be able to give them a multitude of things when it comes to the schools. So think about whatever neighborhood you're in. What would you say to that question? You know, would you say, well, I'm going to have to look something. I know you would give them a feel. We had Luke Capelli Jr. on from the Camden County freeholders, whatever they call themselves now. And he said there are going to be several dozens, I think, of $300,000 homes. And he talked about a $500,000 home in Camden. And he said, you can come to the ribbon cutting. Camden's gotten better, no doubt, crime-wise. The statistics bear that out. But am I paying a $500,000 house in Camden? I think you should just go to a casino and roll the dice. Come on. It's better, though. Is it that much better? What about the schools, though? I still think they're bad. Maybe not as bad as Philadelphia, though. That's how bad Philadelphia is. So how do you get away with this year after year, how bad the schools are in Philadelphia? Well, you're not allowed to tell people that. You have to lie, if necessary. All right, phone lines are 855, 839, 1210, AT&T, and Verizon Wireless, all that you need do is push pound 1210. Now, we're not sure which day they're going to do it, but the WNBA is poised this week, one of these days, with a secretive meeting, which will leak out, essentially to define what a woman is. I mean, that's what it comes down to. In order that these two males can't play in the WNBA or trans, maybe trans, though I play, I'm not sure. I'm not even sure what the definition of trans is. Does that mean you say it and you are? Does it mean you do something like testosterone restriction? Does it mean you have to do a bunch of things, surgery, et cetera, in order to be transitioning, to be trans? So we'll see what they come up. This is going to be hilarious. So what we've cooked up, you give us a word. Of course, too obvious we're starting out, a man and a woman, but you can, Henry brought up a liar yesterday when we're talking about it. And if you turn to, think about it this way, if you turned in the encyclopedia dictionary or the Google, there would be a picture of this individual or.

14:02

of this situation, and that would tell you what a man is, what a woman is, what a liar is, take anything that you want. Now, I'm sticking by one, a woman definition I think of it, and Rose said, that's an awful definition. I said Marilyn Monroe right out of the box because of longevity, because of the whole thing that's connected with it, you know? I'm not saying the most beautiful or whatever. I'm saying marijuana Monroe. Oh, Henry doesn't like, what's your woman then? Seems kind of sexist almost. Oh, well, okay. Oh, yeah, I'm coming out to gate firing today. I don't know, a woman? Yeah. That's a good question. Uh-oh. Oh, it doesn't have. I'm attacking mine. I got Marilyn Monroe on the table. I'm calling this hand. We'll come back to that. I have no idea. Well said. So you focused on the mail aside of this. And when I was Googling this, a great answer. Linda Kearns would have put this up was Darth Vader for the mail. Something about how Darth Vader feels like a male who has great talent but is stifled and that's what modern society does. Darth Vader is a male. That's preposterous. I agree with that. That's old. And speaking of Kearns, when I think of a guy who is a weasel, I do think of the mayor of Amity. Larry, I don't care if he got reelected. That guy is a weasel. So you're changing up. I thought Krasner was a weasel. No, Krasner is more direct than this guy. Yeah, a weasel is more indirect. Yeah, got it. No, Krasner goes down Broadway. Got it. He's a punk and impeach, but that's another thing. Of course. All right, Henry, maybe you collected yourself. What do you have today? Yeah, so at least for my answers. Yes. When I think of the word suave, I think of the kind of cool, on-screen, effortlessly cool, calm demeanor that was Paul Newman. That's a real good one. Yeah, whether he's Reggie Dunlop, whether he's Bush Bill Cassidy, whether he's Doc Hudson in cars. Yeah, I mean, the man just had the suavvness about him that, you know, you kind of yearn for almost like, man, why can't I be like that guy? He's so suave. And then the other one I'm going to take off the board is the word con artist. That's one word. That's C-O-N-A-R-T-I-S-T. One word, con artist. And I think of this word, I think of our friend and former athlete here, Ben Simmons.

16:41

as he posts another, you know, summer workout video this time with the Australian, you know, national basketball team preparing his NBA comeback. I don't know about you. I've seen, I don't know, one to 15 too many of those. It seems like every off season, the man was putting out like an insane workout video. I'd be like, like, this year is the year. And then what does he do when he gets in the court? He doesn't look at the hoop. He's looking to pass it to anybody else. Maybe he'll get a few rebounds and steals, but God, he's a con artist. He sells everyone. a false bag of goods every year well i i like uh the first one that suave i would say sean connery is james bond too but newman yeah it's pretty hard to beat paul newman in it and almost any circumc even in um as as uh the prison uh film why am i blanking on it he does have that uh Eric Swalwell thing when he's trying to con the uh the boss cool hand luke yeah yeah It doesn't work in the end when they shoot them. We're not going back to the prison. You know. We're going to go 100 miles away. Hopefully he'll die on the way. Kirk, how about yours? My definition of a hero is this dog, his name is Ace. He's a German Shepherd. He got shot in the leg because this guy was wanted for a bunch of charges, and he shot upon police and this dog. The dog survived, but the guy's dog, his leg amputated. He's healthy. He's doing great. So I think as the word hero, I think of this dog, Ace. All right, so you can take a broad thing like male or suave or a woman. Marlon Monroe stays in on this. I'm taking that off the board before you get it. Romay, text, Henry, that's it. I told him no Marilyn Monroe. I've got my woman. Okay. Who's the woman? Cleopatra. Okay. That's a good one. All right, yes, absolutely. Beat that Zinos. I still would take Marilyn Monroe. The Kennedys weren't with Cleopatra. We're not getting on a boat. She has her boat. Now, we have the boat. It's, yeah. What you do? Star in some movies? Come on. Well, it's just, how is she still relevant that people reference Marilyn Monroe? Yeah. That's 1961 or 62, whatever it is. I mean, I have a theory that, you know, it's kind of like if people die too young, they get sort of a clout for that. Yeah. But something like James Dean, yeah, people remember. Marilyn Monroe, though, is still. I get it. Yeah. It's almost annoying, I admit. How is that? But it is. All right. I'm sticking with Marilyn Monroe. I'm with you, Dom. I'm with you a 110%. All right. So as they struggle to define a woman, you can do that by hitting us with one. You can also hit us with suave, liar. Take any term that you want. It's all in the call and all in the person or the situation. You can come up with a situation that defines what you do in a particular moment that matches.

855-839-1210 AT&T and Verizon Wireless, all you have to do is just push pound 1210. What does it mean now that Hong has broken the string now of these DSA wins? Well, I think the DSA people think it was rigged. Hasan Piker does. The USB in Milwaukee. It was very, very close. Why can't the pollsters get it right? Because it's an inexact science. And also, I think these are open primaries. So the people that decide to vote in the end in the Democrat primary could have been independents, Republicans, and they're doing it to stop, Hong. And the last point is it's not so much her position. She's wifty. She sounds wifty. The guy in Michigan is arrogant and goes right after it. But he doesn't sound wifty. You may not agree with the stuff he says, but it sounds like a challenge. This woman, let's ban Thanksgiving. It stuck. All right, 855, 839, 12, 10. AT&T and Verizon Wireless, all I need you to do is just push pound. 1210. Nerds! Today's episode is sponsored by NerdWallet's Smart Money podcast.

Yeah, so anyways, this has been a refreshing break brought to you by Snapple. Real tea, real juice. With Snaps is a new refreshing. Tom Chirdano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. Okay, it is downtime 855-839-1210. That's how you do it. Not a shock, even though the polls, we know they were off last week in Michigan. We see some of the reasons why creeping into these Democrat primaries. But this will, I think, intensify. Because the establishment Democrats, such as they are, will now think this is a signal. This is all died out. I don't think it has. And I think we're going to see it here in Philadelphia. By the way, we mentioned the WNBA as kind of the impetus for today's side question. Here is the coach of the fever. And in this case, Stephanie White, this is cut nine. She talks in the beginning of her press conference, whatever it was, about humility and inclusion. And then she ends up by telling everybody to go to hell. What is it with this woman in this league? Here's how it sounded. No, I'm going to start today. You know, this isn't necessarily for those people that are in this room. This is more for an online community that's trying to create narratives that simply don't exist.

24:49

trying to create a fabrication or distortion of who I am, of what I'm about. Our player's success, our players' health and wellness, our player's safety is always a top priority for me. One of the things I pride myself on is my relationships with players. For those who have anything to say about the play in the last game, I didn't see the play in real time. I went straight to a press conference. I thought the play got called right. Thankfully, Sophie's okay. Was it egregious? Absolutely. When you have a chance to watch that over and over and over on replay, you can see that. I didn't have that in real time. I take personally any suggestions that I don't 100% always have my players back. I ride with them 10 toes down all the time. All the time. They know that. It's a shame that we can't have an opportunity to talk about what great basketball they're playing. Because they are playing. The reality is with me, I will always lead with love. I will always lead with grace. I will always lead with humility. And I will always lead with integrity. Doesn't mean I'll always get it right. I'm also human. The hate, the fear mongering, the divisiveness. The stuff that's trying to hijack our league will not win. It won't win. We are united. We are connected. We will not be divided. Every day these women put their on the line. Every day. When they go low, we go high. Love will win. Grace will win. Humility will win and kindness will win. I stand by them. I will always stand by them. Everybody else can go to hell. There you go. That's your kindness. That's humility. You go to hell kindly, you. Oh, this league, the more the microscopes on it. So I haven't seen anything, Henry. Maybe it's secretive which day this week it's supposed to be this week they redefine or they define who complain who can't, right? You know, it's the first I'm hearing about it, so let me see. Well, the clock is, yeah, I mean, that's with the memo. That's what triggered this whole thing last week, where the commissioner says they have to come up with some answer here, and that means definitions. Yeah, they have time if, you know, those guys are trying to enter for next season. Well, it was supposed to be this week. I mean, in the public pressure arena, yeah, they have time until they have to do it with them, but they want to clarify. That's what her memo was about. The top brand the owners, I think. Well, all you need to do is send out a memo saying you're going to do something and then not actually do it. And then when people ask you about it, you just go, oh, well, we're deliberating. This was a call to actually meet this week was in it. Right. I get that. But like they can say they met and then keep going and just have no answer. And the answer is no answer. Yeah, I think there will be more. I think their lawyers are telling them. They got it. say something. It's like I've said times in the show before. Kathy Englebert, the commissioner, is not making it through the summer. Yeah. But aside, I think they are going to try to split a hair here. And we had somebody on, oh, Jennifer Say, who said they might come up with a hormonal thing. And if you do X, Y, and Z with that, you can do it. Maybe that would buy them time. But that gives us the premise for the side question today. Definition of something. So you take.

28:37

Somebody, some way, man, woman, suave, liar, doesn't matter what it is. And hit us with that. Give us a person or a situation you think that lets us know that's what it is. It's going to be very difficult. Anything you define here is fraught with difficult. As of now, it's very wide open, which is fraught with even more. They'd have to let these guys in. 855, 839, 12. But don't think just male or female could be anything. Joe and Columbus on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Joe. Good afternoon, Tom. Afternoon, Joe. I want to apologize ahead of time for treading on Xenosis territory. Okay. Uh-oh, the Italians going over to the Greeks. It's unbelievable. Yeah. We're all in the Mediterranean. Yeah, there you know. I'm going to go with the Greek god Adonis. When somebody looks at a guy and says, oh, my, or a woman looks at a guy and says, oh, my God, he's an Adonis. Do we still say that today? Or do we say that's a Joe of Columbus? No, I think Adonis still works. And Dr. Oz called that of what's, of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. Then he said he was a gazelle. And all the guys doing, Joe, is eating meat and sourcrow. That's what Marco Rubio said. Gazelles don't eat meat. I know. And the sauerkraut. I'm not eating sauerkraut. I don't care what Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says. But his uncle ran away from a bridge accident like a gazelle. Nicely played. So Adonis, we turn to the dictionary. There we go. Thank you, Joe. Yeah, and he's in Adonis. I think that still works. Well, who's in Adonis? A male, perfect male. Yeah. So he's saying male in Adonis. Yeah, a male would be the word of... That's what I want to clarify here, because it didn't sound like he said male, essentially. Oh, no. I know he's referring to a male when you say Adonis. Perfect male. Yeah, okay. Yeah. Marco Rubio, though, talking about, yeah, the lengths he'll go to to get sauerkraut when they're out for dinner. I don't know. I was saying is Marco Rubio trying to make him a nut because he knows he's going to run in 2028, too. He's already starting knocking Robert F. Kennedy Jr. off the ticket. All right. Coming up, Senator Coleman, Jared Coleman, is one of our favorites. Usually he comes on breaking down what's happening in Harrisburg, Josh Shapiro. But he's also a biker, a bike rider. And he's got a bill. We talked about yesterday that I think even though on paper, maybe not horrible, and he's got a breakdown of like 14 points that he sent us in small type. I want to talk about the broader thing of the bicyclist here in Philadelphia with him too. And AI. He's got a lot on that big poll out about AI in Pennsylvania. And it seems to verify what I've been saying. People want a second look at the entire AI thing. We'll see if he agrees. He's next on Talk Radio 12, 10, but first...

Raleighamero versus Tiofimo Lopez. August 22nd. I'll shut you up. Watch on DeZone and DeZone on Prime Video. I'm cheer die. On Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, it is Dom time. So yesterday we told you about this bill that would, rather than having, as I understand it, bicyclists have to stop at a stop sign or red light yield to traffic. Look around and yield. And we were surprised it was Senator Jared Coleman, who was on that side. And I looked at the data he sent Henry. It's very involved about all this. But the broader thing we talked about yesterday, at least here in Philadelphia, with bikes, is not good. Let's go to the senator here. And it's also got over the course of time a lot to say about AI. I want to ask him about that. Senator Coleman, welcome back. Thanks for joining us. Hey, Dom, good afternoon. Thanks for having me. Well, we talked yesterday. You know, we agree that I've never seen anybody. Is it your sense that police would ticket them if they don't stop at a stop sign of bicyclist or go through a red light after looking, but we just don't see that. So why the need for this? Yeah, I mean, because the intersections cause a lot of, you know, uncertainness between drivers and cyclists. Now, this isn't, you know, this isn't just in our state. We've seen this across the country. Essentially, you know, I'm a cyclist myself, and I ride a good deal on the road. And what you'll, you know, beyond, of course, there's folks don't like bicyclists. You know, I get honked at and the bird throat at me. And, you know, of course, people just don't like cyclists, you know, in the middle of the road or on the side of the road. Wait a minute. Can I ask you, are you in the middle of the road ever? No, not in the middle of the road. Okay. You know, we do stay on the side. But look, what happens at these intersections, that's where a lot of the crashes happen. And so, you know, a lot of times you'll come to a stop sign if a cyclist is in the intersection or a red light, for example. And you'll see, and when you talk to a lot of our other cyclists as well, they'll bring this up, but sometimes a motorist will.

38:14

you know, tell you to go, and even if it's not your turn, and it can be confusing if there's cars oftentimes behind that other person who's yielding, they go around, and they almost hit you inside of an intersection. And we just see that as you adopt these yield laws for cyclists, it just allows them to get out of the intersections quicker. So no longer are you coming, in states that have adopted these, you know, yield, bicycling laws, what happens is you have less interaction with the cyclists at those times where the crashes occur. So you'll see less cyclists in the intersections because they will just proceed on their own, you know, absent the traffic jam. So it helps to promote safety at someone a lot of other states are doing. It does, you know, it does make sense. And while. You know, folks, I think folks have said, you know, well, no one's going to give you a ticket for it. Well, you know, that's not really true. We do see instances where, you know, you are reminded, you know, people will get tickets for going through an intersection. And it's extending now to the e-bikes, right? Dom, that's the big thing are the e-bikes where, you know, they're also getting in the intersections. And so there's questions about that as well. But you talked about, you know, questions you had with bikes down your way. So I'm interested to hear from you, too. Well, yeah, I'm not sure where you are. It's a little bit more open space. But here in Philadelphia, we talked about Henry, my producer, and I. We're here at 23rd in Chestnut. either it's downhill for like three or four blocks and with the e-bike they're going 30 35 even the regular bikes are gone and there's this entitlement with people that bike here in antagonism we're bike-laned up and it's it's more of a liberal thing jim kenny was the architect of this miles and miles of this protected bike lanes so we were just uh you know anything that seems to enhance And I get your safety concerns, the parity with bikers here, I'm opposed to. Yeah, and I would say the e-bide, I see your concern on the e-bikes. You know, e-bikes have, you know, are a concern, but the legal status of an e-bike, you know, it's a double-edged sort. I'm going to tell you on e-bikes because... Understand that it may be different in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and we hear a lot of groups from those cities that want these yield laws because that's where they're even having more issues with the bikers, the cyclists. But double-edged short in the sense that, Dom, on some of these trails that I ride a couple years ago on these trails. I wouldn't, I didn't see too many folks over the age of like 55 riding. I'll tell you, when I go out now, you know, especially on the weekend riding, I will see folks, you know, 55 and older who are on these e-bikes and they're out enjoying, you know, they're out doing something active. So it's a.

41:27

The e-bikes are causing problems, yes, but there's also folks that are benefiting by getting that exercise on a bike where they don't want to get on a regular bike, but they like the e-bikes. They like getting out. It gets them some exercise as a pedal assist function where they're pedaling, but the motors are doing some of the work. And so they're able to enjoy the outdoors up here in Lehigh and Bucks County. And so it is a kind of a double-edged sword, but certainly... You know, the rules on e-bikes right now, technically, it's a pedal cycle, right? So they can't weigh more than 100 pounds. They have, the motor has to be less than 750 knots, but they can't exceed 20 miles per hour. under the motor-only power. Well, I'll get you a beach share out of here at 23rd in Chesta, and it's like a curve. And it's the DoorDash, guys. And they're exceeding 20 miles an hour. I think by the time they get to the bottom of the hill. Wanted to also talk with you. I see a big survey out on AI. And finally, I think Stacey Garrity has found something, even with the informing ranks around Josh Shapiro. that is given some traction here. I don't think it's just about the cost, the water, environmental. I think, in my mind, it's people saying, we want to take a second look at this. It was rushed into. We think maybe we're giving up control of our lives to AI in some broad sense. Is it broad where you are, or is it just we don't want to pay for it, kind of? No, no, I mean, it's all of the above. I think, you know, we were out, I was out early questioning just rather that they were the right fit simply from a, you know, I hope in space, the Italianated a lot with number one leader in foreign preservation for a federal acreage. This wasn't the right of the concerns, of course, over the noise pollution, the environmental impacts, the electric use is going to be enormous. These decisions, you know, these data centers are going to live with us for decades. Some of my kids and their kids will ultimately left to reap the results of our... decision. So because they needed to be done, that's why we did our moratorium legislation that's up for final passage in the Senate. When we return in September, I'm hoping we can advance that because that'll give our time to, quote, pump the brakes. Let me ask you on that. Real politics. Stacey Garrity says, pause, I would advise to go further. I've been advised your moratorium, what you're taking, and make the whole campaign around. The MO of what Josh Shapiro does here, he got all that Amazon money, he jumps into the ring, doesn't care about anything, then tries to pretend like he didn't do it, then tries to find an angle of attack on her. What's wrong politically with calling for a moratorium in the governor's race?

44:26

Nothing. Nothing at all. I mean, except putting Pennsylvanians ahead of special interests, right? That's what you're asking them to do. And so that's the money talks, I think, to the governor that's essentially, you know, should. But you should have, look, that comes with being a leader, right? And that's, let's go back to if Josh Shapiro. really wanted to be a leader on the issue. I get it. He's taking money from Amazon. I get it. He said he wanted to fast track the permits. I get that he did that at that point. Well, now we feel a different way. Pennsylvanians feel a different way in their concern. And it takes a leader. Why doesn't he call a special session? Why would we go back and pass this? Or why doesn't he say, look, my opinion, I'm hearing from neighbors who are concerned. And I'm going to, we're going to pump the brakes on this. Look, he'll sue President Trump with our tax dollars left and right. But he can't put a pump, pump the brakes on data center. Okay. Let me interrupt to say. You're the guy with the moratorium. I'm a talk show host. I'm not advancing the bill. So it's easier for me. I don't care about all this China scare. They're going to get ahead of us, whatever. They have nefarious purposes with this, et cetera. I think people are saying, no, we don't want this dominating our jobs, our lives, in addition to the economic types of things. So I couldn't agree more. I think Garrity ought to be calling for a special session, a moratorium, a vote. I think in these suburban communities, I know where you are, I've never seen people yelling like this. You know, that's more of the civil town halls usually. They're going nuts over this. They're going nuts, Domit, it's on things that I don't know, with cross-partisan divides, right, on issues that I don't agree with some of these folks. I will meet some of these folks that are supporting me in this legislation. We don't agree about just about anything else. We debate lovingly against other topics. We don't agree. And, you know, they could be socialist. And I don't care for any of that. Yet on this issue, you know, they're Zohran Mamdani supporters. But on this issue, they're... they're with Republicans. That's, I mean, that just shows that it's not protecting the community, and that's why, I think, to your point, they absolutely should be calling on a moratorium. And again, I just want to highlight, if we had a leader who is more focused about Pennsylvania than Pennsylvania Avenue in the governor's office, he called for a moratorium right now. That's what, that's about, that's what's being a leader. He would do it. He calls to a special session. We take action on it. Again, and if he cared about consumers' price at the pump, uh for the gas tax he produced the gas tax because he can control that and we have a bill for that too dom you know what i mean again so you can't you know it's convenient for him to take action when it's issues that he cares about but uh you know there's a political advantage for people being in pain for him uh because he's going to try to blame it on the trump administration so again absolutely they should call for a pause on this we need to put the brakes on it uh just until we understand this fully and let our communities protect themselves because We're going to be left with these decisions for decades. Absolutely. And Senator Jarrett Coleman, thank you again, up for re-election. Where do we go to help the campaign? If you want to help the campaign, that's Mr. Coleman goes to Harrisburg.com. Very good. Well, thank you. Thanks for coming on today and to be continued.

47:52

And I'll bring my lawn chair down to, I'm much glad to take my beach chair to the beach, but maybe I'll go to 26. I'm telling you, you will see the spectacle of this. You will think it's a Grand Prix of DoorDash. That's what's going on there. I can't believe the mayor hasn't, you know, tax their bikes yet, but I'm sure she's coming for it. Exactly. Thanks, Jared. Thank you for joining us. Thank you, John. Senator Jarrett Coleman here. Yes, Stacey Garrity, call for the moratorium. Call for them to get back in special sex. Don't listen to people telling you, you can do the pause and all that. The poll results that are in on this are across the board. Republicans and independents, not quite as much as Democrats, wanting this stop, wanting a second look at all of it. Is that just a scare time? I'm so tired of hearing about China and curing cancer with us. 855, 839, 12, 10, get in, give us that word, give us a situation person, some way of defining it, like the NBA trying to define what a woman is, WMBA, all that straight ahead. First, though, let's talk about great dentistry. I can define that for you. That is Dr. Benz, my dentist for about 12 years. And think about it. There are a lot of people listening now. We've found this. I've talked to Dr. Bentz. I've interviewed several female patients who for decades had been the rock of the family pulling the kids, everybody together. And then it came to a point where there was a big dental issue or they wanted really to enhance their dental health, be it eating, be it a smile in one way or another. And that healthy, beautiful smile, that's an investment in yourself and your confidence. It's not vanity. So whether you've been thinking about replacing missing teeth, improving your smile, or restoring the ability to eat and smile comfortably, you don't have to keep on putting it off. Dr. Robert Bentz and Dr. Emily Bentz, both board certified prostodontas, specialize in complex, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry. Their expertise, my dental implant, for example, Dr. Benz routinely does it, veneers, crowns, full mouth rehabilitation, it's all there. The emotional benefit, though, is something to consider, smiling confidently in photos, enjoying meals, laughing freely, feeling like yourself again. That's big time. You spend a lifetime investing in the people you love. Now invest in yourself. Start with your smile. Schedule that consultation, evaluation, see what can be done.

6-9-49. Tom Giordano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHPHD. I see a good one. I see a great one getting what we're doing here. In honor or dishonor of the WNBA on the side question, trying to define what a woman is. Yeah, we know with the simplicity of it, but that's not their business. They can't do that. Just to shut out these guys, they got to do something else. Can you imagine the scheming? I like David in Lexington, though. He's got a pretty good one. Hey, yeah, David. Good afternoon. Hey, Dom. Happy New Year. How you doing? Thank you, David. Very good. How's North Charlie? Man, it's as wild as ever. It's rocking and rolling. Yeah, Rose said, I want to go back to Charleston at some point. I wrote a note of my book, Avoid North Charlie at all costs. Yeah, you know, they got a TV show on Friday nights where they follow the police around, and I've actually got North Chesa County, which is where North Charlie is at. So it's often on there. So, David, from afar, I'll admit this, you know, it's just a personal annoyance. I can't stand the sister of Lindsey Graham being the senator from there running. It's just preposterous to me. Is that why Norman forced enough, even with the Trump endorsement last night, to get a runoff? Yeah, I'm not happy with her either. I mean, I'm sad what happened to her brother, you know, of course, but no, this is not a training ground. You know, this is the real thing. You don't just jump into it. It's a play senator. So I'm not really happy. Yeah, I hear you. What's your side today, David? So, you know, all my life coming up to Pennsylvania as a visit family and everything, and somebody would find out, oh, you're from South Carolina. You're from the South. And they don't mention, oh, maybe the food or the heat. It's always, hey, say something southern. So it's always the southern accent. Yes. How do y'all say this? Well. So the southern accent. Yeah, it's either the British or the South. I would agree with you. When I think of the accent, I think of the South first. Yeah. Definitely, definitely. Take care because it fits the pace of life. It fits so many films we've seen. Oh, yeah. And just the number of people that want to steal that phrase, y'all, like Josh Shapiro. You grew up in Abington. You can't say y'all all the time. You'll come back now. Yeah, that's it. But you can't say it to be cool or whatever he thinks it is, you know? I grew up in South Philly. I would say use, you can say, but not y'all, use y'all. Or water. Yeah, of course. Yeah, but just the appropriation of that. So accent, you turn to the page. I think Southern's a good one. All right. I think that's good illustration. That's what we're looking for. A big one o'clock hour coming up, a lot of stuff coming off last night's dumping of the DSA. And a couple of updates and stuff we've been talking about. Here's how you get in.
