2:57:42 I just have to do this live on air. I don't have any other choice. So just I'm sorry for doing this unprofessional, but I have no other choice We've just connected with an Epstein survivor. I've been trying to connect with her for some time We're about to get her on the air. So let me just do this on the air guys. Let's get everything sorted out with her Okay, get get get everything sorted out with her video audio. Take your time. Just get it right. It's okay We'll keep her for 10-15 minutes, whatever So while you guys get that sorted out and bring me a little bio sheet too, just give me a little bio sheet so I can do a proper introduction of her. Take your time, no rush, get that all squared away. I'm gonna take a couple calls while you guys do that. So we're gonna have an Epstein survivor coming up here in a couple minutes. Take your time guys, no rush, just get it done right. In the meantime, I'm gonna take a couple calls. So let's just go ahead and do it like that. Let's start with Bob in New York. Bob, you're on the air, go ahead.
2:58:36 Hi Owen, it's nice to speak with you. You know I was really excited about the proposed full disclosure of the Epstein files a couple of months ago and I was looking forward to that truth and it seemed as if everything was headed in the right direction and a couple weeks ago I got to thinking to myself what's going on with that? She said it was on her desk And she was going to be sharing this with us. And then lo and behold, you know, we get blindsided with this reversal. And, you know, I've been grieving it. But yesterday I started to think, you know, where would I and my family be? I don't know, what's it been, six months? If Kamala Harris was president. And that kind of equalized some of my
2:59:35 disdain for this reversal on this Epstein thing and I started to think well you know the good is sometimes the good is the enemy of the best but I'm so grateful that Trump is you know the president but just a perspective I wanted to share with you. Well look I understand that and I'm not going to argue against that but to me that's like It's really just an irrelevant point to make because she didn't win. And so we're not dealing with that. So I don't like to deal with, it's not that I don't like to deal with hypotheticals. I don't like to deal with, I mean, that's not even really a hypothetical. It's a non-existent, it's a non-possibility. So I understand that perspective and I'm not gonna disagree. I'd probably still rather have Trump in. I don't think I would rather have Harris in. She'd be a probably worse disaster in other reasons.
3:00:31 But that's just not even, you know, that's just really not even a serious conversation to me, Bob. And so I thank you for the call, though. Let's go to Don in California. Don, you're on the air. No, guys, no, no, no. There you go. All right, Don in California, go ahead. Hey, thanks for taking my call. And two things I want to say first, I want to apologize to you. I wasn't trying to imply that you and Alex were fighting on that state of the union address and you were, I wasn't trying to start anything. I was just trying to say that, you know, you had a different, you had a different opinion and you stood up for it. There's no, there's no fighting here. Alex and I can disagree and have different perspectives. There's no fighting. It's all good.
3:01:23 Yeah, excellent. I'm glad to hear that. But I also want to point out something. You had a when when Netanyahu came on with his press conference and he's all happy with what Trump did your show. I don't know who who's in control or who's making the decisions to do certain things like production. But you when when when Netanyahu came on and started spouting all this crap, it segued to you standing on standing with your hands up to the wall, the wailing wall. And that was just brilliant, man. I think if every time you point out something that Trump capitulates to Israel or something, I think if you put that up every time- Well, I've made that, thank you for the laugh, Don. Maybe we all needed a little laugh today. I don't know. I don't know if I want to go that far today with the seriousness, the serious nature of our conversation.
3:02:22 Yeah, that was a fun attempt at humor and I guess it landed and I kind of made that joke a couple of other times. I suppose it's still funny, you gotta laugh out of me. But that just kind of takes away from the serious nature of it. But hey, I mean, that was the last time Netanyahu was here dictating our foreign policy. So it's not even, that was the other time, Don, but appreciate your call there. Let's go to Valerie in Kentucky. Valerie, you're on the air, go ahead. Hey, Owen, can you hear me? Yes. Awesome. I wanted to say why Trump should not make a deal with the deep state. You know, that never ends well. You cannot trust people that will betray you in a heartbeat. They're not honest. They will not hold up any end of their bargain.
3:03:12 And it got me so upset, I mean, I voted for him three times, Owen, and I still support him, but he needs to do the right thing. I went and made an account on Truth Social and put it on there and said, no, we need accountability, we need arrests, so we have trust in our government. And I said, if you're really concerned about the flooding in Texas, why don't you arrest Bill Gates for spraying stuff in the air to dim the sun? Cuz this flooding is just like the flooding in North Carolina. So I support Trump, but he is at a turning point right now where he needs to follow the Holy Spirit and stop playing footsies with corrupt people. Because if you compromise, he's gonna be betrayed. Well, and I think what adds insult to injury here
3:04:06 The Trump administration at large in the first four years as well was very receptive to criticism and hearing from the voters and the American people. And so to have him come out and like scold us now is like where it gets so strange. And, and that comment during the cabinet meeting the other day when he says, stop talking about Epstein, that's why it was so strange. Cause it was like, wait a second. That's not, it's not how this normally goes. All right. Uh, uh, Valerie, thank you for the call guys. Let's get a Juliet squared away here.
