Bob Frantz Spots a Rare Sight at the Mall
"I talked about this on my local show a couple of weeks ago and I was just shocked. I went to a mall and I know shopping malls are going the way of the dinosaur. Shopping indoor shopping. There are a lot of outdoor shopping while being built, particularly in more affluent areas. And then there are strip malls, but the indoor shopping mall, they used to be so popular as I was growing up as a kid in the 70s and 80s and stuff. But I went into one, which is still actually thriving in northeast Ohio. And I was actually walking around the food court just looking for the restroom. I couldn't figure out where it was when I saw an older gentleman walking toward the movie theater in the mall. And I looked and I did a double take because it's so rare to see in public. He was wearing a Red Hat. And not just over anywhere it had, it wasn't a Red Hat with a communist Chinese Nike swoosh on it. No, no, no, no, no. It was a Red Hat that said, make America great again. It was a Trump hat. I kid you not. I was this far from going up to the man and shaking his hand and said, God bless you for your courage. Now, he was an old guy. Probably less courageous for him because nobody's going to hit an old guy, but if a young, healthier guy, you know, the typical quote toxically masculine male wears a red Trump hat out. He's probably asking for trouble, somebody's going to confront him. Somebody's going to flip him off. Somebody's going to maybe challenge him point of finger and call him a racist or call him things like that. And it just hit me. That we can't display what we are and what we believe despite what we are and what we believe being righteous. And not just right, but righteous.

How DeSantis Took a Progressive College and Made It 'Unwoke'
"I want to talk to you about something that I'm going to call desantis university. Desantis universe now that's not its official name. We're actually talking about a college called a new college of Florida. And the new college of Florida is a progressive, left wing institution, by the way, it's almost two to one female to male. It's got a huge so called gay or I guess they call themselves queer and trans community. Some of the professors are trans, openly so, and so on. And this doesn't, by the way, distinguish the new college of Florida because there are other private liberal arts colleges that are like this. So in that sense, you can say you got a college in Florida that looks a lot like some of the worst colleges and Portland or in the West Coast or in the northeast. But the difference, of course, is that the new college of Florida is a public institution. It's funded by taxpayer money. And it's cheap. It's only $7000 a year, which means that a lot of people who can't afford to go to more pricey. Sort of progressive institutions can go here. And they do. Now, a lot of times when conservatives and counter these progressive institutions we just inveigh against them, we decry them, we expose them. We describe what they're doing. I do a good bit of this on the podcast. But I also advocate for alternatives, but desantis figure out there is an alternative, and there is an alternative available to us politically, and that is why just complain about this left wing state funded institution, let's take it over. Let's actually run it our way. And that means not running out the left is so in the institution, but changing the composition of the faculty over time, changing the composition of the curriculum, changing the mission of the university, why don't we take this hippie college, if you will, with all its diversity, equity, and inclusion, all its left wing indoctrination, all its speech codes and enforced orthodoxy. And let's create a new orthodoxy.

We've just got some reports coming in from Maryland, Northern Virginia and also West Virginia that I would argue a little bit troubling, a little bit baffling. The reports are about a mysterious dust that is appearing suddenly out of nowhere, coming from the sky. I don't know where this green administration is. Where's our climates are when we need them? I mean, consider what happened in Ohio. Hide and Biden taken on a new significance here as we look at some environmental disasters that may be happening under none other than his watch. Anyway, one state West Virginia says that it is testing some of this stuff that appeared on cars. You see, there are reports of a powder in the air that is almost like a kind of snow. I seen some pictures of it, it's like a film. You know, if you live in the northeast, which I do, you might have a lot of pollen during the spring. So that's kind of what it looks like. I mean, that would be my best analysis of it, except this is, this is not pollen, folks. This is something else. Nobody knows what it is. A couple of the states have gotten their environmental protection agencies, state ones to work again. I have no idea where the federal government is on any of this. I'd Biden. There's a disaster in Ohio, trained to Roman massive chemical leak and well, he's not nowhere. He's over in Ukraine. And now this, anyway, West Virginia, they're looking into it. They are waiting on test results. And Maryland is also common in Maryland thinks that maybe this is dust that came from Ohio. Oh no, no, no. That's what that's what we all think. It may be dust from Ohio. No, no, forgive me. Maryland's department, environmental department says, it's probably from Texas.

Kudos to the Boston FBI for Its Actions Concerning J6 Protesters
"I'm going to do a short segment praising the FBI and you're like, is this true? Is this real? And but I'm not going to praise the FBI in Washington, D.C.. I'm actually going to put in a good word for the Boston FBI, the Boston chapter of the FBI. Which by the way, it doesn't just cover Boston, it is the headquarters for the northeast, and so it covers Boston, but it also covers the larger area pretty much all of Massachusetts, pretty much all of New Hampshire, Maine, and also road island. Now, if we go back to January 6th, we find that in the immediate aftermath of January 6th, the D.C. office of the FBI decided to cast a wide prosecutorial net. And so they went to banks and said, do you mind running credit card searches and account searches and see if anybody spent money? Going to Washington, D.C., or in Washington, D.C., because we want to start doing a deep dive where we want to start looking carefully at all those people to see if they were involved in the capital incursion. Bank of America to its great discredit. Participated and said to the FBI, yeah, we'll do it. We'll run a search on the credit cards. And we will let you know, we'll fess up and tell you, we'll give you names. Of our clients who were in D.C.. And I think this is something that itself is something that the House Republicans need to look at, because let's remember, Bank of America did this without any reason to believe that any of these people were guilty of anything. They're just clients, imagine if you went to Washington, D.C., just on a family trip, or you went to the Trump rally, you turned around after Trump's speech went back to your hotel, went out to dinner, your name would be turned into the FBI. This, I think, is completely disgraceful.
