03-20-26 Part Two - Swinging into Spring

0:00When you really need care, you need 24-7 access to a care team, not a maze of paperwork from a third party. Every day, America's hospitals and health systems show up for you. Navigating healthcare can fuel overwhelming, but you can count on real doctors, real nurses, real people, providing quality around the clock care when you need it most. They're in your corner, in communities across America, your neighbors, your lifelines, right beside you holding your hand and helping find answers. That's what putting patients first actually means.

Now, it's Red Eye Radio, Gary McNamara, and Eric Hurley talk about everything from politics to social issues and who's of the day, whether you're up late or you're just starting your day. Welcome to the show from the Relief Factor Studios. This is Red Eye Radio. All across America, we're at Red Eye Radio. He is Eric Hurley and I'm Gary McNamara.

1:01Welcome. Good morning. It's a Friday show. Happy Friday, everybody. Now, we're cleaning off the desk. Yeah. Man, oh man. We went from in some places, the upper 20s to the low 30s. Monday night, I believe this week, depending on where you are in Texas. To be by the weekend, 95 to 100 maybe. And then back into the 70s on Monday. Yes, exactly. It's a great roller coaster. The only thing is we call it the weather. Well, I didn't mind it. It was funny because my, I didn't even have my air conditioning until I decided to go to sleep and then I put it on because on the ceiling fan, it took a while. I think we got to what yesterday? We got to be 85, 84, 85, 84, 85, okay. Yeah, so the 91, 92 tomorrow, probably 95 or 95 to 95 or above for Saturday and Sunday.

2:04So yeah, I did some working outside for several hours yesterday. Wasn't bad though. That's what I've got on the docket today. I did it yesterday, cut the front lawn and then all this weekend, lawnwork, garage work. Well, I had something, you know, I had a task plan, a project plan and then I went to the store and saw that they had this, you know, the materials, the core materials that I needed on sale for almost half price. And it wasn't advertised. It was right just right there on the shelf. It was had a sign in front of it. And I was like, oh, okay. Well, I guess we're doing this today. So I was like, okay. So I loaded everything onto a cart, loaded everything into my truck, loaded everything into the yard and got to work. But I had to get it out of the way. And I'd rather not be doing that kind of stuff in the mid 90s. By the time it got into the mid 80s, I was pretty much done.

3:07It was about two, three o'clock in the afternoon when I finished up. And so it wasn't too bad. The air wasn't humid. Might not be fertilizer, fertilizer and fire and killer. But otherwise, and that'll be hitting some golf balls. Gotta get ready for that. Got the independent Bob golf tournament coming up in April. Yeah. So I've been hitting golf. Really haven't hit golf balls at all. I'm really trying to just work out every single day for the last few months. I do anyway, but just an extra effort for golf this year. And I went to the driving range the first time. What was it last Sunday? And I'm hitting the ball. I'm really hitting the ball. Good. So I'm looking forward to it, to spending a little time on the golf course here in the next few months. And I usually play April, May and then halfway through June.

4:07And then it's like I give it for the summer. And then hopefully back by the autumn. Yeah. But we'll see. Who did I see? Yeah. I saw an old, an old interview from Alice Cooper. Being interviewed by Dan Rather. And he was 71 at that time. So this goes back a few years. Yeah. And he said he shot a 66. Oh, all right. Which is unbelievable. He goes to see only because it was one of those miracle rounds. Now he, you know, he plays six days a week. Hmm. Yeah. I'm having a high. The he's Alice Cooper. He's touring all the time. Why can't I find time? Well, it's I don't have servants. I can't. Yeah, it's true. Why can't I have time to get time lately the last couple of years to play golf six times a year? Driving ranges just so much easier because you can go for an hour. Golf is just. It's a commitment. It's, I can't believe how much I used to golf. I'm like, how did I get anything done in my life? It's going to take, it's going to take, you know, at least half of the day if not more.

5:08Yeah, it's well, by the time you go there, hit golf balls, play the golf, come back, it's six, seven hours. Yeah. It's a long time in a day. My golf score is a great bowling score somewhere around 300. I think on a good day. I mean, I took lessons a couple of years ago and I really haven't taken advantage of it on the golf course, but we'll see. We'll see. You know, I'd like to get a couple of good rounds in just for, uh, just so I can pretend that I'm still some kind of an athlete. Yeah, I've tried that before. I was hauling big bags of mulch yesterday and I'm thinking to myself, because it ended up being nearly 500 pounds of mulch total. Not at the same time, right? Right, total, total, uh, two bags at a time. And it was like, why am I doing two bags at a time? I can just do one. Yeah, but you've got to, you know, because you put it on the cart and you, I could have it delivered.

6:08They will deliver for free, but I needed to get it done then. I thought, well, I can't wait until this afternoon. Right? And it's like, I really don't have a choice. So you put it on the big cart. You roll it out to your truck. Now I've got to get up in my truck and organize everything. Because I've got dozens of bags of this mulch. And so I'm having to organize it. So it will all fit in the bed of my truck. And then I get home. I'm like, okay, well, here we go. Yeah, then unload it. And then I've got to go in and straighten everything out so I can lay it down. And I'm building a pathway for my wife, her vegetable garden. So she can maneuver a lot easier. She had moved it a couple of years ago. And we never got around to the pathway part. So I got that done yesterday. When you really need care, you need 24-7 access to a care team. Not a maze of paperwork from a third party. Every day, America's hospitals and health systems show up for you. Navigating healthcare can fuel overwhelming.

7:09But you can count on real doctors, real nurses, real people, providing quality around the clock care when you need it most. They're in your corner. In communities across America, your neighbors, your lifelines, right beside you, holding your hand and helping financiers. That's what putting patients first actually means.

But the choice between getting crispy chicken nuggets or a crunch wrap slider isn't one you'll have to make. The new crispy chicken crunch wrap slider at Taco Bell. All white meat chicken nuggets breaded into her teachips, wrapped up sauce and all inside a slider-sized crunch wrap. Choose from creamy chipotle or jalapeno honey mustard. Well, there we go. Life, still full of choices. The new crispy chicken crunch wrap slider. A brand new classic, only at Taco Bell. And participating in those Taco Bell locations for limited time and loss applies last. I always get whenever we just talk about it. Because as we get into this time of the year, we always mention the lawn work we do. I always get people commenting some or listeners. You guys are the only national personalities I know

8:13that still do your own lawns at lawn work. I like the idea of looking around my house at least once a week. You know what I mean? On the outside doing a walk around. And it's a good walk around. It's a good way to do a good walk around. Also get some exercise. But also, we've hired people in the past. And they cut it way too short. Well, that's the thing. I can't get it the way that I wanted. And plus, I think it's just part of the culture that I grew up in. Yeah, maybe the era. You know, I get friends of mine asking me all the time. They go, you don't have made service in your house. That wouldn't be comfortable with that. And they go, why don't I just never I'd be following them around going, you miss this part. You miss that part. When they asked whenever I get asked, I'm like, well, I never thought about it until you brought it up. Yeah, it was just never like, no, I just do my own stuff around the house. And I mean, you could afford to have a maid or service at laundry.

9:18And I'm like, yeah, why don't you? I go, because I think it's a culture I grew up in. That's my job. And I'm being serious about that. I mean, it's just the kind of cultural thing. Because I never, it's not like there's a decision or I'm going, should I get it or should I not? Now, I will admit, as I get older, and I have thought about, you know, when it gets really hot, as I get older, I mean, it's not yet. But there will be a time. You know, maybe when I hit 80, well, I go, okay, I'll have somebody do the lawn. Yeah, yeah, that might happen. But sure, with my lawn, the same thing, they cut it too short. Yeah. I'm like, no, I've got, I've got the southerners. Because they're working fast. They don't have time to sit and, and, and had all where they set, reset their lawn mowers, their equipment and all that, which I get, you know, I do have a guy who helped me. We, I was planted 31. Japanese boxwoods several years ago. And I just helped him. I hired him. He does my neighbor, a couple of neighbors lawns.

10:20Great guy. And I hired him to help me dig the, the holes for that. And then I planted everything. And I know if I told, if I asked him, okay, I want my lawn done this way, I know he would do it. He doesn't, because he doesn't do lawns all day. It's a side job. It's a side gig. And I think he would, I think he would have no problem doing it. I've got my, my neighbors who got older. They've, they've got, you know, people that, uh, that do it now. And one of them is the guy who lives just four houses down for me. He's a landscape. That's what he does. Yeah, yeah. And he'd do it in two seconds. And he would follow what I would, what I would want. Yeah. And there's part of me that, you know, as I, as I go through the years, it's like, okay, uh, I need a, uh, new, a new leaf blower, you know, or I need a new hedge trimmer. I need a new edger. It's like, well, is this the time, you know, to get somebody to do it? And it's always, uh, and I don't know why it just, I, for me, it's, uh, doing lawn work.

11:26It's, I don't know, it's coming for me. I don't know why do. Now, I'm like you, like, when I had my major trees, they both had to get cut down. They were diseased, but I'm not going to go trim them. I mean, sometimes I'm going to hire out. I made, I made higher up. Yeah, made major stuff. I hope somebody do. But, uh, you know, the minor stuff, I can prune trees. I can cut them back. I can do that. But if I, a couple of times I had to take down a tree, but, you know, and of course, I can't do that. I don't have that experience. I'm not going to get stupid out there with a chainsaw. Well, I'm not going to get more stupid than I already. I, I did one for my dad, uh, recently. And it's one that my mom loves. It's a tree that my mom loves. But he says, look at this thing and, and I said, okay, I said, I'm going to bring my equipment. I brought all my equipment and it ended up, and it's, it wasn't the world's biggest tree, but it took all day. And then I hauled everything off for him. And that, I love being able to do that.

12:26Feel useful, you know, in that way for somebody else. And, and especially mom and dad. And so something like that, you know, pruning trees, cutting it back, taking big limbs down, but taking a whole tree down. Ooh, I had a, uh, the Chinese tallow that, uh, the top half of it in Frisola actually died. But the lower half didn't and kept blooming. Frisola is February of 21. Yeah, people know. And so the following year, uh, the following summer, I told the guy, I said, just look, take the top half out where you see those dead limbs, go from there at the trunk, because I think I can keep that tree for shade. And it's perfect because it blocks the sun in the summer from that part of the house. And we get shade in that part of the house. Sure enough, he took off that top and the tree is doing really, really, really cool. I finally had to after 19 and a half years in my house.

13:28Can you believe that? Mm-hmm. Yeah. I remember sitting with you and getting mortgage advice. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So 19 and a half, almost 19 and a half years, I finally had to get no solicitation signs. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It just, you know, even though the Homeowners Association, it's a policy, you're not supposed to do it. Right. It doesn't matter. And it was, it was either Sunday or Monday night. After six, I'm asleep. Yeah, between six and eight, three people rang the doorbell, which just destroyed my sleep. A lot of campaigns are out there right now going door to door. And I just, and so I just, and so the, why have one sign, no solicitation, when you get up to the door, there's a sign on the door, it's not big, but you can see it. It says, no solicitation. This does not include friends, neighbors, or deliveries. Right. I'm like, okay, I covered it. It doesn't come off as mean that if your neighbors, you know, if your neighbors walk up, but it's just, and then the morning after,

14:30I hadn't even woken up yet, and I had two rings of the doorbell. And I'm like, I can't do, I've got to sleep. It's just, yeah. And it's just getting worse than ever. And it's like, okay, I'm done. I'm done with this. Yeah. You know, and I really wish that, for example, when Jasmine Crockett was running, that she would have knocked on my door. That would have been fun. Because some of the, I live in a Democrat precinct. Because that's one of my, one of my, now, I have different types of fantasies, as you know, I'm a weird guy. My fantasy is a Democrat coming to my door, knocking on it and saying, would you vote for me? And my fantasy would be just to ask the question, can you define a woman? Right. I want that to happen in my life. Yeah. I need that to happen in my life. Face to face with them. Yeah. On my property. Right. On my property. Well, yes, because of fear.

15:31So can you explain to me why you believe that men should be able to expose their genitals to women, you know, in a locker room? Well, I want that to happen in my, because Democrats won't answer those questions. It would be the only time to quote Kathy Hocal. I would have them captive in that situation to ask that question. Bring them in, you know, get them something to drink. Have them sit down, bring them in. No, you got to bring them in. Oh, yeah. Bring them in. Come on. This is my kitty. Cat Tiki. Sit down. Yeah. Evan, would you like a beer? I'll give you a beer. Would you like some butt cake? Let's have a discussion. Let's see if you can convince me to vote Democrat. Yeah. Exactly. See, I want that. I want that in my life. Right. Just I want to explain. See, I have a different bucket list than a lot of other people. That's on my bucket list. Right. And then, and then as they start to talk, put on my mega hat. I'm sorry, you were saying? We are right, I radio.

16:32Brought to you by FPPF fuel power max. Managing time is key. Successful owner operators know that simply running hard is not enough. If it were that easy, anyone could do the job and expect the profits to roll in. It generally pays to slow down. There is a tradeoff in higher costs, not to mention the increased risk for driving fast. If driving slower takes time away from you, you could find some of the ways to get it back. Never take time off during the last two weeks of the quarter or the last week of the month when fray typically is abundant. Sometimes it works to your advantage to look for loads that take you through home rather than to home. The latter can interrupt your revenue stream and require additional time to get back up to full speed again. Owner operator business 101 is provided by overdrive partners in business program.

Coming up on the bottom of the hour, our audio cut of the week, and if you haven't heard it, you'll want to hear it. If you've been listening this week, you're like, I want to hear it again because it is so bad. So we will, we'll get to that. A build to suspend California's gas tax for one year, failed in committee.

18:34At the Capitol yesterday, state Senator Tony Strickland, a Republican from Huntington Beach and author of the Senate bill, told journalist Wednesday afternoon outside the same Sacramento committee room that California prices are only going to rise at the pump. He blamed the state's policies for often allowing price hikes here in California because we rely so much on foreign oil. We put ourselves in this position responding to a question because of the anti-business policies we just lost Phillips 66 and Valero's shutting down. Now my bill is the only thing we have right now to give immediate relief to hardworking California families. Of course, the bill was rejected by the Senate Environmental Quality Committee. I said yesterday this was actually on Wednesday. And there you go. In addition to suspending the state's gas tax for one year, the bill would have suspended. This is why you knew it had no chance in hell of passing.

19:37It would have also suspended California's low-carbon fuel standard and exempt transportation fuel suppliers from the state's cap and trade program for one year according to legislative analysis. That was never going to pass. No. You know, even if one of the Republicans even if there's a runoff between two Republicans for governor in California, you think that's going to change anything long-term? No, no, it isn't. It's what I mentioned earlier. You have to change the entire legislative body. You know, that's the entire might, which means the mindset of the voting public in California has to change and that's not going to happen in our lifetime. With all due respect to our conservative friends in California. Keep fighting the good fight and do everything that you can. But quite unfortunately, the state is making it too expensive for people to stay for companies to stay

20:39to do business. That is absurd. These are all choices. Every one of these are choices. Choices people make at the polls. And those people that win as a result of those choices go on and make choices to kill industry. And make it extremely expensive to live in that state. It's tragic. You're listening to Red Eye Radio from the Relief Factor Studios. And he is here currently, and I'm Gary McNamara. Download our Red Eye Radio app today. You can listen when you feel like it.

21:41That's right. Like now, you should feel like it right now. Right. Well, you definitely want to stay with us. Let's talk to the people who aren't listening right now. For the next couple of minutes, you want to stick with. That's right. If you're not listening right now, we got something to say to you. You ready? Okay. What do you got? We have our audio cut of the week. And then, but this audio cut wins in over time because there is a second audio cut of the week. Yeah. Okay. But the first audio cut of the week has to be Governor Holkill. Yeah. Has to be Governor Holkill of New York. Who realizes that rich people are moving from New York and they've got to do something to not stem the flow but get them back. Yeah, which is hilarious. Yeah. And so we'll just play. Okay. And being conscious of the facts that I need people who are high net worth to support the generous social programs

22:42that we want to have in our state. Right. Now, there are some patriotic millionaires who stepped up. Okay. Cut me the checks. I mean, just if you want to be supportive, but maybe the first step should be go down to Palm Beach and see how you can bring back home because our tech space has been eroded. So I feel softly going to a problem. It is like I have to look at the fact that we are in competition with other states who have less of a tax burden on their corporations and their individuals. And I would say remote work changed everything. There are people who could only work in an office in Manhattan and work in New York State. And they were captives for our state. They were going to stay. They were captives in our state. We had them. What I, what I love though. They were basically imprisoned. When she talks about the rich people who have stepped up, but now she needs them to cut a check. Well, have they stepped up if they haven't voluntarily cut a check? Right. So she's saying that rich people have to voluntarily cut a check that isn't part of the taxes

23:44that they're owed. That's how I took that. Right. Me a check. It sounds very mobster-like. Right. Doesn't it? Hey, look. We had you kept if you got away. And if you don't want to be harmed any further, you could just cut us a check for your own security and whatnot. Me a volunteer can. It just sounds so much. What are you, what are you? Or she could have said, we need to incentivize them to come back. They had a great incentive to leave. They had a great incentive at the time to stay. Now that new incentive that got them to leave, we need to take a look at. Of course, they're not going to do that. No, this is what Andrew Cuomo went through. Yeah. You know, and she wants the other millionaires to go down to Florida and get their millionaire buddies back for her.

24:44What, you know, when we see in California, what accelerated the movement was the proposition on the ballot in November to tax billionaires. Right. And then make it retroactive to January 1st. Well, the billionaires said, we're not taking the chance. We're moving now. Right. Moving isn't a problem for us. Right. Right. You know, now regular people, it's a problem to move. They use you halls. Yeah, you're going to do it. You're going to do it all on your own. You got to lift things. Billionaires go, all right. I need to move. Take care of it for me. Yeah. I already have a second home there. I'll just, I'll just drive there. I'll just fly there. And, and so their moves are easy. Yeah. And so they moved. And it's like dog on it, but we didn't even pass the bill yet in their moving. Why should they wait for you to pass a bill that's going to cost them. Billions of dollars.

25:45Right. And they're surprised by it. Then they get angry. We need to convince these people to come back. They need to support our generous wealth. Now, she, at least she was very honest. They need to come back to support our generous welfare program. We're losing it. We're there are other states out there that are being competitive that have a lower tax base. I mean, lower tax base. She's, she's being honest, totally honest about it. Right. But we'll cause a problem in New York, but really accelerated the problem in New York was, I'm Donnie getting elected. And saying, look, we can't afford to take care of what we want in New York City alone. We wish to tax all of New York state. Yeah. We've got to tax all of New York state. Now, we want to tax our billionaires, but also we want to tax everybody in New York through a corporate tax, which then filters down to the people. They realize they don't have money anymore. I mentioned my buddies telling me city of Buffalo, 25% property tax proposal now.

26:47Increase, yeah. 25% increase. I'm in Texas. Now, granted, I'm a senior citizen now. What? But my taxes over the last five, my property taxes have gone down. I think almost 35% my actual reduction in the taxes that I paid and there is no income tax, right. And and Florida wants to get rid of the property tax completely. And and so everybody realizes we don't have the money anymore. All these blue states are running into massive deficit problems. You know, that's why in California, what the hell are you talking about? We can't afford not to to say no gas tax for a year. You know, in Chicago, we saw it. Well, we need a we need a 20% now.

27:48They didn't increase a 20% and it goes up to 20%. So I don't know what it correctly is right now. The hotel tax. So we're going to pretend other people pay for it, except everybody's now is being very careful with their dollars. Convention, where do I want to go? I want to go where it's more expensive. And coldly significant portion of the year, which is I'm not trying to insult Chicago in any way. It's just the reality of the weather. It is what it is. And when you look at, well, it's be cheaper down there or cheaper down here. And the weather is nicer. These are all things you need to take into consideration. And they're selling that by, well, we don't pay for it. People from other states pay for it until they don't come anymore. And then you pay for it. And so all these blue states are having these problems now. They created the problems. And now my choice. And now, like governor Hocal, this is where we talk about

28:48how liberals and liberal economists have their, you know, their wish. We wish economic philosophies. Well, we wish. Can you convince them to come back to pay more in taxes? When we held them captive, they had to, they had to pay it, but we can't hold them captive anymore. Can you convince them to come back? Even though we admit that we held them captive. I mean, my God, I mean, you're, it's just, it's unbelievable where they are right now. And that's why that was our audio cut. That's number one audio cut. Number two audio cut. You ready for this? All right, what do you got? This was Stephen A Smith on voter ID. Talking to representative Kali about it on his podcast about voter ID requirements. And he didn't know the California bans voter ID. Here we go. I think the fact that we don't have voter ID in places like California is extremely unusual in democracies across the globe.

29:50There's maybe like two or three democracies in the world that don't have it. This is just kind of like a standard administrative requirement in a well functioning democracy. So I think we should just have it. We should get this order to move on with our lives. You know, it should be a big controversial issue. Excuse me for being so ignorant and asking last question. This is definitely my last question. What do you mean you don't have voter ID in California? Could you please elaborate specifically on that for my audience that may not know? Yeah, California does not have voter ID. You don't need to present it to register. You don't need to present it to vote. As a matter of fact, the state passed a law for bidding voter ID. So cities, counties, if they want to bid, they're not allowed to under state law. What when did that happen a couple of years ago? Because I think it was Orange County. They wanted to have their own requirements of the state passed a law saying, no, you're not allowed to. You voter ID is not only not required, it is actively forbidden. That's right. Is there a right there?

30:51That's what I say back then proposed right there to say to California. That's what the Republican is going to lean on as an excuse to definitely push forward to say back right there, right there. I can't believe it. Oh my gosh. Now, he did say, forgive me for my ignorance at the beginning. Yes, he did. So at least he acknowledged he was ignorant on that. But he lives in California and he didn't know that. This is again, what the left, what the Democrats count on, willful ignorance. I would love to see the rank and file Democrat, just the Democrats in California. Does California have voter ID? Yes or no. And in question them specifically on the wall to see how much they actually know about it. I mean, we talked about it at the time. And it's something that's a very basic equation.

31:51This isn't hard. There are no rabbit holes here. Photo ID to vote. Legitimate ID to vote. Day or nay. Most people say, yeah, good idea. Democrats don't want that. They're fighting against it tooth and nail because it hurts their chances. They understand that if they can't have that, that certain amount of fraud in the election process available to them, that they may not be able to win long term. Well, does this mean that we don't do a poll tax like a Democrats are calling voter ID? Yes. Of course, it's not a poll tax by any means. And we go to poll testing. Yes, that you need that I want. You need to have a test in order to be able to vote. Yes. Because remember Steve was the three branches of government. Stephen A Smith just said here in the last week that he wasn't going to run for president.

32:55Right. But he was talking about running for president. He didn't even know about California and voter ID. Right. He didn't even know it. And the beautiful thing about it is he keeps wanting to you hear the clips in there in the beginning of the audio where it's like it clips for a second. That's him trying to interrupt going, what are you talking about? And it happens like four or five times. Yeah. And his eyes keep getting wider and wider and wider and wider. Yeah. In fact, let me just do it right now. I will. I'm just right. I'm just right here. Here it is. And I'm going to post it on my on my X feed. All right. Okay, the Stephen A Smith. So you can see his eyes just get wider and wider and wider and wider. So I just posted if you want to look at it at Gary red. I want at Gary red. I want if you want to see it. Because that's that's when you know when you see his eyes getting wider and wider.

33:59Like, oh, he's going to blow here. He's just going to go crazy. Yeah, yeah. It's like and that's the anticipation of it. You're like, he doesn't know. Oh, and we we played already.
