"Talking about somebody wanted to talk about recovery somebody wanted to you know they all want to talk about basically just talk about Trump. I don't know what they're gonna do when Trump's not around to talk about. When his four years of back in the Oval Office is over and he moves on to other things I don't know what they're gonna do some of them. I don't know what Jerry Nadler is gonna do. I guess we'll go back to eating full-time. I don't know because if he can't talk about Trump there's nothing else for him to talk about and some of the other ones as well there's just nothing else for them to talk about. They have no interest in any of the topics at hand. No interest of course and obviously in Hunter Biden or the president. Well it's because if they were to really answer honestly they'd be exposed and Jerry Nadler is not someone you want to expose. Keep that covered up. So we'll go through all of those I got a lot of news I'm sure the guys have news as well Dr. Jim Thorpe is gonna join us at the bottom of the hour from the Wellness Company talk about some of the things they're doing so we got that coming up but let's start with just a couple housekeeping short little things the Federal Reserve ended their two-day meeting today and they kept rates unchanged. Fed holds rates steady but does talk about possibly another one hike later here in Q4 of the year. Federal Reserve officials voted to hold interest rates steady at 22 year highs and signaled they're prepared to raise rates one more time this year if need be to combat inflation and I think I think that talk is really more just talk to keep the market somewhat on edge because the last thing they want is the market running from here knowing that they're probably actually done they want to leave that impression that they're not done just to try to keep some things in check because I think the other thing is they realize their 2% goal is and I think they probably hold these rates well until either something breaks until we have a real credit crisis real credit crisis worse than 2008 something like that happens some big firm goes down or whatever and cascades from there or they hold these rates probably till about the summer if they can make it that far they say with economic activity stronger than anticipated most officials also expected that they would need to keep the interest rates near their current levels through next year according to projections released today the conclusion of their two-day policy meeting Fred fed chair Jerome Powell said officials didn't need to decide yet whether to raise rates again this year what people are saying is quote let's see how the data comes in while inflation has declined recently we want to see that it's more than just three months he said Powell also said the speed of which the Fed raised rates last year mean we have the ability to be careful as we move forward plus a lot of the rates that they raised is probably working on a 12-month lag so we're really getting into the heart of those raises now when they were doing 75 75 75 50 and 50 you know we're really gonna start to feel those right about now we're raised the benchmark federal funds rate to between 525 and five and a half they began lifting rates from near zero back in March of 2022 Powell last month signaled he was reluctant to declare victory too soon and the feds inflation fight recent progress slowing inflation is only the beginning of what it will take to build confidence that inflation is moving down substantially but we know inflation is moving down substantially except for a couple key metrics at the CPI obviously weights extremely heavily which of course is rent owners equivalent rent housing those kind of things are still energy now ticking back up are still weighing heavily on on why we're not seeing this really crater towards 2% the median projection showed officials expect to lower the federal funds rate to around five by the end of 2024 I probably think it's gonna be a little earlier than the end of 2024 I don't know that they can hold these there all the way through the year I think next summer would likely be a time where they could maybe look about starting to ease off these rates so that happened this morning and now you thought he was gonna raise were you surprised yeah yeah I was a little surprised but you know what he didn't do anything but he didn't lower either well no we know that was never right so so my question now because you know as you were saying we're still gonna we're gonna start to feel these raises that they've put into place we're gonna start to feel that how is that gonna help anybody unemployment's gonna start to go up so it's gonna it's gonna affect us negatively of course so then I don't understand how anybody thinks well then we're gonna lower it because then it'll be good then we'll be in good shape it seems like we're heading down things are gonna probably gonna get worse before they get better of course and they're gonna oh it's gonna they're gonna overdo it they're gonna realize they overdid it you're gonna have real problems in the economy and then they're gonna have to cut to stimulate the economy which is the vicious circle that we always go in it's like what happened when COVID came in they were just they were raising rates then to remember and then COVID came in and they immediately had to start cutting and got to basically zero even though again the the economy real estate as things turned around very quickly you know the market member the market dropped to about 18,000 yeah and then quickly covered yeah bang bang went on to go in back to the 30s real estate was flying commodities were flying and everybody was saying hey maybe we want to get off a zero and we didn't get off a zero until it was too late now here's my question and we printed seven point eight trillion dollars including the CARES Act which was responsible for about four trillion of it here's my question do you foresee inflation continued continuing to go higher because we've seen it start to trend back upwards well again I there's nothing they can do to control energy prices and Biden has artificially tried to keep them low by draining the Strategic Petroleum Reserve which is now he's not going to be able to do so it depends a lot of what happens in China it depends what happens around the you know again it there's a lot of things out of their control the Fed with energy I think real estate is gonna I still think we're gonna feel the real estate market which has really in a lot of places started to roll over not as much as I think people thought but it has rolled over and I don't think we've seen the effects of that yet owners equivalent rent and rent if you look at the last CPI reading was still extremely heavily weighted right used cars news cars some of those were surprised to the upside so I do think we will continue to see it come down because eventually you're and you could see it come down actually dramatically not maybe not the 2% but when you get the real estate rollover actually get into the numbers you could see a significant drop one of these months which is why I think the talk today is more just to keep everybody kind of on the edge of their seat oh we we're ready to raise don't you think we're done there now what if we because we are in a recession I think everybody kind of we kind of agree to that even though they don't like to talk about it well the numbers haven't officially said you know well we know they fudge the numbers we know we can't believe them for anything but what we know because you know we're seeing how it hits us on an everyday basis we're seeing how it's wiping out people's savings we're seeing how it's it's affecting everybody on pretty much all different levels what's the next step our I've heard talk of you know hey possibly depression are we what happens then well I think we're still I think we're still a ways from there I mean the way that we get to depression is obviously I mean right now Biden can't pass anything so I think that kind of saves us from that but if he was the past tremendously overtax if he was to pass any kind of horrific tax policy right now mixed with a slowing in the economy that we're gonna see that that could lead us to depression that's not gonna happen right now you mean you trust Kevin McCarthy to not sell everybody out again I know I don't actually I don't trust Kevin McCarthy at all by the way and I don't trust them on this CR not to find their way to a clean CR which is why I keep talking about these people playing hardball which I would I would be all for in any other circumstance but we just don't have the numbers to play hardball so I mean I listen to gates and I listen to Rosendell I listen to these people and I go yeah okay yeah I'm on board with exactly what they're saying and then you look at the reality of the numbers and you say well you know the hard line it only plays into McCarthy's hand to go you know what let me go deal with their Main Street Rhino caucus and get a couple we'll just pass a clean CR then then what do you do then you get a clean CR which is total capitulation which is what we're used to in the Republican Party in these debates mmm pure capitulation where what we have on the table right now at least for 30 days buys us 30 days to get 11 appropriations bills together it's an 8% cut and a pretty good start to close the border and eight I was just I'm just curious on all the people debating this when's the last time you ever heard of anyone talk about an 8% cut to government spending how many where was the last years that that was on the table even if it's for 30 days when's the last time you heard that when's the last time anyone talked about getting rid of catch-and-release at the border since Biden took office I mean I know I know everybody is like no McCarthy's got to go we're not doing anything again we have to get to the shutdown so if you think that that gets us to a shutdown but you leave the door open for McCarthy to say well just pass a clean CR we don't need them we don't need them well let's see I saw these headlines fun fact interest on the national debt is now two times defense spending 5% interest on 33 trillion national debt is 1.65 trillion every single year yeah and it's only gonna go up and our total tax is collected 4.9 trillion so you're talking about 30% approximately and by the way remember this if we get to a shut if we could do a shutdown because nothing happens in McCarthy doesn't roll over in cave we get a 1% cut that was built in from the from the Rays member Massey was when he went for the debt ceiling raise we were all like what he was like well we get a 1% cut so you got a 7% difference in what you're gonna get just in that short term all right just getting started live from studio 6b more after this all right 17 past the hour live from studio 6p on a Wednesday night we'll do news and sports so I want to take a second here slick oh look at that look at what came in the mail that's yesterday cancer oh there you go much

if you guys had a button when you wanted to allow me to talk it could just go you know it's funny about that too it's interesting that last night after the show I got home and popping around there's really nothing to watch I came across a history channel but it was Kelsey Grammer who was who was hosting and narrating about the Revolutionary War and it was some really interesting stuff you know they did some reenactments of some of the battles and how some of this stuff went down to it that you don't even realize happened like Bunker Hill was never really fought on Bunker Hill but was on Breed Hill which was a smaller Hill just to the I guess facing Boston just interesting the way you know some of these things of history kind of played out and people think oh that happened in 7076 actually 1775 you know when the famous line you know don't fire till you see the whites of their eyes because they were low on ammunition and they needed to preserve it and you find out the muskets really were only lethal from 50 yards in so if you shot further than you could see their face it was like a wasted shot so it's just interesting stuff I found yeah and I know Kelsey loves history American history oh very cool check that out maybe yeah very sounds very informative yeah because I didn't know anything of what you just said yeah and a guy's name I never knew in history a name shop slick his name was John I believe it was John Warren was a huge revolutionary hero he was a doctor in Boston he worked he basically worked you know as a physician but he had he had British generals that were his clients but also you know American Patriots who were his clients and through that he established kind of a spy network where he where he was according to according to the way it was described he was plying the wife of one British general who was born in the States born in the colonies I should say and supposedly she was feeding him information that he passed along to the to the American Patriots America amazing stuff it sounds amazing people in the audience are making fun of my memory saying that I wouldn't remembered any of it anyway which unfortunately is probably true that's true because that's why Delgado's here but what do you mean you're over 50 aren't you oh yeah oh he's not over 50 oh no I just take alpha brain Zoe I don't remember what it's called sports sports is brought to you by Mike Lindell he didn't remember we were doing sports he's even worse off than we are use our code LFS6B at checkout Slig Rig what's going on all right big D boy let's get over to the scoreboard first and foremost Major League Baseball getting ready to wrap it up we're inside 10 games now and we got the Angels right now over the Rays six to one end of four top of the

Diamondbacks defeated the Giants seven to one Padres three to over the Rockies I guess baseball is going to bed early tonight and Tigers and Dodgers that's a autopsy provides information about cause of death for Patriots fan reported on this last night that very unfortunate situation that happened on Sunday at the game between the Dolphins and Patriots at Gillette Stadium up in New England this was posted by Larry Brown sports Steve Del Vecchio a fan died at Gillette Stadium on Sunday during the New England Patriots Miami Dolphins game and an autopsy has revealed some new information about the tragic event Massachusetts State Police announced on Monday that a man in his 50s had an apparent medical incident midway through the fourth quarter of the game paramedics on the scene brought the man to nearby Sturdy Memorial Hospital in Attleboro Massachusetts where he was pronounced dead the man was later identified as 53 year old Dale Mooney of Newmarket New Hampshire various witnesses spoke with local news outlets about the incident and said Mooney was involved in a physical altercation before his death one fan who was seated nearby shared a cell phone video that shows a man in the dolphin Jersey throwing a punch at another man who is believed to be Mooney according to Brian Lambert of Boston 25 news the Norfolk County District Attorney's Office announced on Wednesday that an autopsy conducted on Mooney does not suggest he died from a traumatic injury the autopsy showed that Mooney had a different medical episode but the exact cause of death remains under investigation Mooney's wife Lisa told Boston 25 news that she was told her husband was being taunted by a Dolphins fan during the game which led to a physical altercation state police detectives are still investigating to determine exactly what happened prior to Mooney's death now I'm no attorney but I could tell you something this fella that threw that that hook big date from the dolphin fan there he could very well be up for manslaughter in this in this situation I mean it really I guess they're gonna have to look at this autopsy and see if the guy died you know post-traumatic yeah I don't really understand like he had a medical incident just as he was getting beaten up exactly well after he after he must have put him into cardiac arrest it sounds like respect we're speculating here of course it sounds like a story it sounds like it was triggered by the beating oh that's what I'm saying because the article made it sound like almost it was two separate things that just happened to happen at the same time that's not true yeah a little bit mixed words here exactly a little bit of forked on there in that in that particular article but III this guy who's a dolphins fan which I presume that they've you know identified who the individual was they know good man was that he's gonna he's he's can't be can't be resting too easy besides the fact that anybody's involved with the death of somebody it's a terrible you know overall it's got to be very terrible so I don't know big D this is really gonna be some story how it plays out but you know it just goes back to the same thing it's a damn game I mean we're out to have good time this guy had I think two kids a wife a family 53 years old by no means is an older man you know really it's middle-aged but they're not an old guy and even who's an old guy who cares he was 99 years old you go to a game to watch a game I mean I gotta admit I get a little excited as you probably know what the games and now I get a little loud and you know I get I get some people upset but I would never in my wildest dreams throw a punch at an individual I'd rather take one than throw one at a game that's crazy absolutely crazy yeah yeah and the studio's a different story and that's a rap big D while more baseball scores I got a couple of the football so great story about a Saints linebacker talking about of all things Jesus and using that platform to say some good things about life and and about his daughter and was really a great story I'll get into that a little bit later I think I could envision you doing the moonwalk to try to throw someone off before I see you throwing a punch exactly I came in a maybe James Brown split 6b dr.

"I wanna play against the fact that you're in a tough one. Well you know what happened to you know. Maybe i'm outing in a little bit but Like i was like in. And i talked about. We've never played against each other in a region athlete We've only played against densely. I'm putting you in my league. This year he goes. I let a really wanna play against aerial jeff. Well the moment. yeah. I mean he's also not afraid. Yes anybody either an so. So it's been. It's been a tough week. Corbin's been crushing it born vine. why. I'm sitting in second but i'm seven points back. It's going to be tough to 'cause that gap on fifty third overall in my yogurt league. Which is the nickname. Jeff erickson call for those that. Don't get at tc byu tgi when when they said it on the pot. I immediately made a lot of sense. I was like when it hit me. I just started cackling laughing. So and i love it and so i say younger now to. It's it's very funny. But yeah i can make a rally but it's gonna be tough seven points this late especially the way. The standings are kind of stratified. And that's what i was saying to you because you said you tapped out like you can look and say well i'm fourteen homers back. That doesn't mean you need fourteen homers. Three fourteen banner. Yeah then the next person that is difficult. Why when you start to see some of these gaps. I just can't cover. I've moved a little bit away from carrying about my league as much as just leading my wife in the overall that's true 'cause you got a lot riding. Yeah so let's put in the overall on the end of that because i can be clipped out of context and you don't want that yes this is true. So someone's gonna take that audio please. Not we do. Not everybody know she beats me. I mean let's say we know no that's not making began. It's for me like right now. If i was trying to just like push my way up the standings in the league. I wouldn't be starting like four. Relief pitchers albinger specific. Okay i because the young any spots. I can't really gain a spots in saves in my league anymore. But i can definitely gain them in the overall and so I am i have targeted. You know i'm trying to gain spots in your a whip in and saved by just loading up on relief pitchers i can get some saves for me rest the way you normally good lean here. You're one hundred hundred spots. Yeah some. i'm doing alright. So like i don't know like i said i didn't think she was going to be able to be me but i definitely i definitely made it closer than i should have now. You got lucky He got lucky she She became disenchanted with with some of the aspects of the fantasy community. And if that hadn't happened your smoke. She made some great some great picks and some great pickups jenner team right. now there's some really good stuff on the squad but I i think you're gonna hold on. You're gonna hold on.

"Little bit more okay But like i don't see much You know there was a a weird velocity dip early in the season that seems to have right itself is now. He's throwing ninety three. That may be just added velocity as well and then a little bit. More reliance on the curve ball but Okay i wonder i wonder if there's a little like i said a little mechanical change. That's helped him command things better because obviously this this jump and walk right from mackenzie. Is he this improvement in walk. I should say Is huge and really driving success for him and he's just been he's been a monster and if he keeps it up at not exactly this clip. 'cause there's someone are a half a run a batter whip or half one runner. Printing whip is not Not going to sustain the rest of the way. But if he's like a a low threes with a with a one one point one something with the rest of the with big strikeouts. He's gonna win. Some leagues mckenzie's With that kind of performance. Let's talk my showman. I put him in focus. Finish up here three one. Era and one fourteen whip through july twenty seven percent strike rate six percent walk looking great. He's gone the opposite way of mckenzie. He has fallen apart in august. Nine seventy seventy or a one ninety seven whip eighteen percent strike at the nine point dip and a nine percent walk. That's the three-point job. And it's been a mediocre schedule. San diego at cleveland at texas san francisco san francisco scary. But that's been his best game of the bunch. He stepped up against the the best team he's faced. He's got the yankees and the tigers coming up. Tigers actually quite good. I believe their top ten in walmart. At least they have been a lot of the year against lefties. Are you still riding with mnaya based on his full season or do you have some concerns about this recent recent performance so far this month some concerns because i think these this feels workload related. He's had a lot of injury. She yeah we're we're talking about a guy who in twenty nineteen nine through twenty nine two thirds in twenty twenty three fifty four and he's already at one thirty eight third. I think he's just tired. Like i feel like there should be an i l. Stint here comment that they don't call them the dog days for nothin' mainly this is where you really hit. We're seeing logan gilbert kinda hit a rookie wall time. You know and it's obviously is not a rookie. But he's had so many health issues you mentioning that. The nineteen season was so white and work on actually kind of forgot that i forgot. You know i for some reason kinda thought that the eighteen season was his nineteen ninety. Three hundred sixty one innings but yes. We're a long way removed from a big workload from annihilation. He's got a huge john. I mean more work. We're talking about like in a week or so. He's gonna be one hundred innings over where he was last year on a guy who's never been able to stay healthy I i'm super concerned. I this week against the yankees. He's coming up against the yankees would untried. And it's going to be at home. It's at home. That's tough against the coin flip. I think what i mean. What are you looking for right now. If you're trying to protect your ratios. And i don't think you can start on there. I would say that as well. And you know. If you've fallen into some recent finds like a mackenzie and maybe another like logan web. So you've got some extra guys in addition to the rest of your rotation you can afford to bench. Somebody like mnay. Who's been a key piece for folks. This year. I think it's okay to bench. Obviously i would not cut him in any format right now is. That's that'd be too much of an overreaction. In my opinion but i think sitting him is okay from an idea. I think i'm sitting them no matter. What my teammates you over his last three starts. He is a total of ten strikeouts. It's been bad dude. Strikeouts from him right twenty seven percent down to eighteen percent like and look what he did last month. Six and five innings. Six six in third seven thirteen nine. The case were bad ass. Last month everything was cook it out that that breeds the fatigue. That that's hard strike me on. I've got a really good. I plead now did strike out. So bad i lead mice. You'll take softball team in leagues ended. Watches souffle on the. Yeah but you're you're true slugger you're out there. You're actually i know. Aren't you kind of like a doubles and singles. I'm mike the adam dunn of. Oh you yeah. That's what i'm saying that you're a true slugger. So you do you do with he and so he still can't you right now. Though man. i couldn't even with you right now. Which you know normally is a pretty easy thing to do but yeah i think a couple things that that got me was the major strikeout dip in the fact that the schedule couldn't even be blamed. You know if this was like houston twice the white sox you know and am the raise the red sox or something that i'd be like okay. He just got bit by the schedule or or even if that giant start had been one of the bad ones. It's so funny that that's the best of the bunch but it seems like they kind of got him out before trouble really brewed because he was still wasn't that good when i say best. I only mean by an urn run standpoint. Because he gave up two and four and two thirds against the giants. Mnaya did but he still put on seven runners in always struck out three on ninety six pitches. So it's bad right now. I think i'm with you. Go ahead and sit pretty much regardless okay. Well that's gonna do it. Justin we're going to wrap up there Homestretch how will your league's doing my teams are doing well enough. I'm definitely going to win a few leagues Which is always nice. I really need a god about got about eight or nine leagues where i'm between like third and seventh place. Where like they. They all have chances to cash. So as as and you wanna hold those money spot yes so like. I really need some of those leagues to kind of like get going on. So that way. I can make sure i'm i'm making a profit this year. 'cause my few wins probably won't cover my sense but my main event team goes on a hot streak here you know. Pablo lopez common back That could be a place where i could at least sneak into third and get my money back. From one of the deadman's is that the one where you picked up kershaw. I heard jeff erickson named check. Us picking up kershaw event. That's teach fbi. Oh yeah okay okay. I thought you said main. pardon me. Pardon me oh is it was yogurt. Which is i have no chance of winning. Tgi tj fbi league i just just. They'll play hard though. Yeah yeah well. Because i mean this was a team where like i crush. Injuries had have said springer ren down he had a two of my first three picks in that league and And so like. I've been just you know and then i lost all. My clothes is with the team where i drafted. That's right closers and lost all of them. rosenthal is probably your main one. Yeah rosenthal archie bradley jonathan hernandez new cotton now. He wouldn't be doing this while right now. But you should have gotten craig kimbrel dude. You know what. I was almost will that. You're gone him but then i was like you know what this really smart guy talked me out of. It asked him. But yeah so. I picked up. I picked up kershaw They're just on. Hey you know. Hail mary I've worked my way from being like twelfth in that link all the way up to sixth. That's probably where. I'm going to cap out at okay At the maximum concert point where you can. You can't even really be optimistic because you see your fourteen homers away from your next point. That's like that so many years. I'm slowly far behind in the standings. This this league is so top. Heavy there are five teams with one hundred points. Oh wow and so like. I'm in sixth place with eighty six points so like maybe i can work my way up and try to bring one of them down to me. But i'm not jumping up into that. That grouping one of them can come down to me and.

"Erickson of Roda Wire coming up in about 11 minutes, looking at bet online bills favored by 6.5 now, and it's leaning higher. In the opener against Pittsburgh. Get some thoughts on the Steelers later and the Bengals Jeff is he happens to be a Bengals fan. Hasn't been on the show. I think in a couple of years, but In in all my fantasy obsessions like I'm hearing a lot of reading a lot about Joe Mixon. Joe mixing is a hot take. Figure right now in fantasy like you have, How do you feel like sort of what's your gut Tell you on him or on Cincinnati? Um, I might think if they are going to blast off, it's going to be because Joe Burrow is throwing the ball like crazy to his former L S u teammate tomorrow. Chase and Tee Higgins. Um and that Joe mixing probably his stock, I would guess would be down. Because of that, but but I don't know. I mean, he's been a pretty hot commodity at the running back position and fantasy for a couple of years now, But I feel like I might want to buy low on him this year. And he has had some success catching the ball in his career like that's not a not not huge, but it's a little bit of his game more so than like a Derrick Henry or somebody, but at the same time they replaced him last year with Bernard when They were passing downs, right? I don't know. It's gone right. Bernard is gone. That's right. They let him go to and he's on Tampa. Now I feel like there's a good argument And it it is, yes, Burrow, But the offense overall could be really good. I just have a Bengals problem. It's like there's no organization in the league that I think less of even Detroit. The guy is kind of a wacko Detroit but We'll see. Maybe Maybe he can lead men know Cincinnati. I looked up mixing. I remember this, but I wanted to make sure so last year. He had a big game. I think in week four against Jacksonville had a big game and the season started. You know, pretty much okay. And then week five they were in Baltimore. They were losing 27, then nothing midway through the fourth quarter. And mixing, then starting right there. Baltimore kicked off after a touchdown 27 Nothing midway through the fourth quarter, like your backups are in Mixing touched the ball on the next 13 plays. And the next week he hurt his foot. They played it slow and after a couple weeks or a few weeks, or like you know what I are Just what kind of how incompetent is that? Why would he even touch the ball at all? At that? 0.13 plays in a row, I think 11 Russia's two catches. Then they kicked a field goal, which maybe their coach thought was important to do like to not get shut out. One of these guys, maybe. I don't know. I just It's the history right? How you won last year in fantasy was betting on the bills that seemed like a crazy idea to me as somebody that thinks like that. It's just never ever, ever, ever, ever good. And then it was great. And so that's that's how you win. And maybe a team like that.
