Now, it's Red Eye Radio. Gary McNamara and Eric Harley talk about everything from politics to social issues and news of the day. Whether you're up late or you're just starting your day, welcome to the show from the Uniden America Studios. This is Red Eye Radio. All across stolen America. We're just going with the trend. What the kids are saying. What the kids are talking about means zero now. You gotta give them a break. Give them a break in Teenland now, in Dreamland now. Yeah, I'm not giving anybody a break. I love the song, but I'm not giving any. The Northern Pikes from Canada. Yeah. Teenland. Yeah. So there you go. All right. We're not giving anybody a break. Sorry. I mean, it was such a great day yesterday because I woke up and it was just solid. First of all, that makes it great. The fact that you woke up. Yes. Yeah. I mean, that's always a good day. Well, you know, my age, yeah. I got out of bed and it was, yeah. You wake up. Whoo. I made it. Yep. Every morning I wake up and say, well, at least I don't have to worry about dying young. Okay. I'm using that line again. Well, your hair is seasoned with gray. Not a lot though. Season with gray. Not a lot. It's not gray. Silver. It's silver. Damn it. My dad said to me recently that my dad's house and he goes, he goes, uh, yeah. So, uh, it was right before my birthday. He says, you're about to turn 60. He goes, you know, it was right about that time. Am I, I went from having mostly black hair to pure silver in a short period of time. What are you saying? He goes, nothing. You can't just leave it at that. My dad's got silver, silver, silver hair. It has for about 30 years. My over 30, my sister cut my dad's hair yesterday, got him out of the bed in the wheelchair and he looked great. His hair was getting long. He's got, and he'll be two months away from him being a hundred. Wow. Wow. Yeah. That'll be 93 in May, but I've, I've been blessed because this is not stolen hair. This is, this is my, this is not stolen hair. This is my hair. Mine's a wig. I just dropped it off to get clean every Tuesday. I told that to somebody one time. They believe we're at a dinner party and the lady goes, and, and it was like 20 minutes. I said that joke, you know, and then the lady goes, so I can't believe that's not your real hair. No, no, no, it is. It is. It was a joke. It's not my real bald spot though. So I tell my grandkids, I shaved off my man bun. That's why that bald spot is there. You know, it's funny because there's so many as, you know, getting into people getting into the 30s, 40s, whatever and start losing hair. Yeah. And, you know, I, I used, you know, I used to think and go, wow, you know, it's, if it happened to me, I'd be okay with it. Guy, you, I know who shaved his head completely because going bald, he went, yeah, it's easy to say when you have it. And I said, yeah, I know. No, I've, I've always, for me, it's always been, you know, if it goes, it goes. If it doesn't, it doesn't. I, I have a brother, one of my brothers, he's, he was a US Marine, also served in the National Guard, but he keeps his head not shaved completely like buzz cut, like just barely there, you know, like boot camp cut, right. And he talks about it. He goes, yeah, well, I don't have any hair. I said, no, if you, if you grew it, if you let it grow, you wouldn't, I don't, because I told him, I said, you don't have any bald spots or anything. I think I'm the only one of my four brothers. I, or that's four boys, my three brothers. My dad has a full head of hair. I've got a bald spot. So I didn't notice. Yeah. You're not standing behind me or above me. Well, that's the one thing as you get older. I'm, you know, when you're younger, you're worried about your appearance. You get older, you're like, eh, well, I, I quit. What does it matter? I quit worrying about it when I had children, which was early. I was in my early twenties. And at that point, the vanity just kind of vanished. It was like, Oh, well, who cares? I mean, you know, I found the love of my life and, and she doesn't get, well, she doesn't, she says she doesn't care. You know what it is. It's, it's following the motto of AA. Yeah. Don't worry about things you have no control of. Yeah. You know, it's like, and I learned that very, very young. It's like, sure. Can I do anything about this? Well, actually you can, but it would cost you $10 million to get yourself a pretty face. Well, then that's not in the realm of possibility. I follow the model of AAA, which is check your antifreeze. And that's all I worry about. So yeah, I mean, that's some of the great things about getting old. Number one, you just don't care what people think about you anymore. Yeah. Right. You just don't, you just go, you know, you don't worry about things. I want to look nice, you know, like yesterday I had to just, I, my pharmacies, like two blocks from my house. And I could have put sweats on because it's a drive through. But I'm always in the mindset that something might happen and I might have to get out of my vehicle, right? For whatever reason. And I don't wear sweats. If the only time I do is if my wife and I are going, we go to this one park sometimes to go walking. If we're going to go exercise or something like that, I do. But if I'm out running errands, I'll get up and actually get dressed, brush my teeth, go through the whole thing. You know, because I want to look presentable. The thing is I don't want to scare people. I really don't want to scare the children. Well, okay. Well, then, then I, I agree with you on that. Yeah. Because let me look at you. Yeah, I want to scare the children. Oh yeah. You could, you could, you could, you could be awfully. I can, that's the problem. I can grow, I shaved before the show. Look at this. I can grow a beard during the show. You're embarrassingly frightening. Yeah. No, I am. No, what it is, it's my head. It's so huge. It's almost mesmerizing. This is why I have a bald spot. It's not that I have less hair. It's how you have more head. It's the skull is huge. So that's massive. That's one good thing when you just, you know, you don't worry about, you know, I don't care if people think of me anymore. It's like, what is it? What does it matter with all the billions of people that have come on this earth in the universe that we live in? I really care about everything to me. You know, close friends. Yes. You know, people that family close friends. Yeah. That's about it. And the other thing is getting old. One of the best things is when I got older and, and this is relatively young because man, I, you know, dad used to call me a BS or dad used to come. Dad used to compare me to somebody. I didn't care if he caught me in a lie. But when he, when he told me I was just like this person that we all knew and I knew this guy was the biggest guy on the block or something. Yeah. Yeah. And, and my, my father told me, you're the exact same. For some reason that hurt me, him comparing me. I felt shame because I laughed at this guy too, because it was so obvious when this guy would talk that he was a BS or. Yeah. But one of the, and I tell this to young people all the time, one of the greatest things ever is when you get to a particular age, you go, I don't have to lie, which really intrigues me that in politics, so many people are comfortable lying because I wouldn't be. You know what's interesting, I think we've talked about this before, but it's, it's not just that they're comfortable lying. The public accepts it. It's that the public and many, if not most know that they're lying and they accept it. You and I have thought about the psychology behind that. Yeah, we have before about, all right, is it that, well, wait a minute. Well, first of all, everybody lies. And if everybody lies, then well, as long as they get away with their lie, then maybe I'll get away with my life. Or is it that they just don't care enough? Or in some cases we do know, because we've heard from callers, we heard from liberal callers during the Obama years. We're okay with his lies because if it gets us to the intended goal, then that's what it takes sometimes. Right. You know, and, and. Since you're Hitler, we can lie to Hitler. Right. Well, no, they, they, they might just, there might have been some consequences lying to Hitler. Well, exactly. They're, the entire equation is weird because, you know, what's his name that, that, that spoke at Berkeley. That Robert Reich said, if I were going to be truthful, that's where you and I left about, and I were running for president. I was going to be completely honest. I would tell people on healthcare when it comes to healthcare, old people were going to let you go home so you can die. And there were, you know, there was applause. Then, you know, it was, no, it was at first, the first one was, the first one was you young people, you're going to have to pay more smattering of applause, just a couple of people. Right. Because again, it's a university. It's Berkeley University. And then old people were going to let you go home so you can die. Yeah, yeah. Because I'm never going to get old yet. And so it was. I wonder what he thinks today. I know. Yeah. And it's again, even in that moment, there is, it's, it's all based on a lie. It's all based on things. And this is where the left gets away with it. They want chaos because then they want to be the hero during the chaos. They want to set the building on fire, then run around, run around the front with a fire hose and try and pretend they're the hero and putting the fire up. Create the chaos so you can create a greater dependence on government. And that's what they do every single time. And they start, you know, offering free stuff. Then they start demonizing the rich because they know people through jealousy and envy hate the rich. And it's. They know exactly what the human psyche is. They know what works for them. It's how a mom, Donnie wins in New York City, even when a significant portion of the people before the election, they were pulled. They were going to vote for them. They said they were going to vote for them. They support them, but believed his policies wouldn't work. That's how bad it's gotten. That's how disconnected we've become or the left has become some and people who vote for the left have become. That's because you can say anything. You can say anything. You and I said it. And we recently pretty much caught up with ourselves because we realized, oh, wait, we've been telling them to go big. If you're going to lie, just go big. You know, and they've been going bigger and bigger and we're like, oh, wait, hold on. Maybe it's our fault now. Seriously, if I was a political consultant, I would not advise. So if I was a political consultant and had to advise people to lie, I wouldn't be a political consultant. They're there. Well, the problem is, is that we're there. There's there's a threshold. Yeah. And that threshold is this at the end of Obama's years, second term, but but his run as president, you had people on the left, a lot of young people saying, yeah, he didn't really do anything for us. You know, he talked to good game, but he really didn't do anything for us. And I thought about who was it that that I was thinking about? Oh, New York Times did a, you know, the new rising star for the Democratic Party. And it was the guy who won District nine, the state Senate in Texas. And, you know, there's a new rising. So it's like, hold on. There's still a very comfortable lead by Republicans in the state Senate. And he still has to win again in November in order to hold that seat for four years. But this idea of creating again and Vogue magazine with Governor Newsom creating these rock star things. Yeah, but there are no, there are just new personalities selling the same old. Exactly. Insane ideas. Exactly. There are never work. Right. They're not coming. Nobody's coming to the 10 and I saw him afterwards. Well, I'm about bringing people together. No, you're not stop it. Stop lying, which is exactly my point because we've been here before you and I've been doing this a long time. Yeah. We've been here before. We've seen everything at the end of the Obama years. Well, he didn't really do anything for us. Oh, why do you think that is because it was just blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and he'd been talking about the same failed ideas. Socialist ideas over and over again. There are people in New York City that voted for mom, Donnie that knows policies aren't going to work. I can't get inside that kind of brain. They already know it's not going to work. It's not like, oh, well, we needed eight years to learn that Obama's policies weren't going to work. No, they knew going in. Look at, look at Obamacare. Everyone knows it's a failure. Yes. It did not do what it was supposed to do. Right. Yet the subsidies, in all likelihood, are going to continue on something that is a failure. Yes. And did exactly what the critics said it would do. Yep. And it's only getting worse. Right. And it's, and it doesn't matter because it's like, well, I don't care just, I don't care how much it costs as long as it doesn't cost me, charge somebody else for that. But I guess that if you, if you're life, if you're comparing it to someone else, if you're full of jealousy and envy, line is nothing. Right. As long as you get yours. We are Red Eye Radio.

Lines open for your calls 866 90 red eye on red eye radio. We are Red Eye Radio. He's here, Karlie and I'm Gary McNamara looking at this headline here. The deal in Iran is regime change. Much has happened since June. The time to barter has passed. There's truth to that. And I think all of us wondering what's Trump going to do? He keeps saying, all right, we're sending the armada over there and everything else and negotiations. Well, what are you negotiating? Yeah, what's the quid pro quo? What is it that you would allow Iran to do? Because you're going to have to give them something. What would you allow them to do? The only thing you can do is lift sanctions so that they can get their economy going again. And nobody wants that. Because then they start funding their proxies again and we're back to square one. No, I don't know. I don't know what the negotiation would be unless it's You're out. The supreme leader says, okay, I agree to leave. Right. Yeah, I'd go into exile. I'll go. I'll go. I'll go. I'll go. I'll go. And he is here. Carly and I'm Gary McNamara. Good morning and welcome. Thanks for being here this morning to download our Friday radio app today. And listen when you choose. Do it now. So just thinking about the whole Iran thing, because time has passed by and the president said it. You know, if killing starts and it has started, as we all know, thousands have been killed already. We're coming in. Now the president said he's open to negotiations. And the whole question is on what? Right. Yeah. And if the negotiation is you're out of power or you're dead, that's really not a negotiation. It's pretty much an ultimatum. One of them is the ultimate ultimatum. Yes. Because what else would you do? Yeah. Anything else? If you say, oh, OK, well, you say that you're not going to be supporting these terrorist groups anymore. If we reduce the sanctions against you and give you more money, this president can't do that. No. No. Obama could. Biden could. Trump can't do that. Yeah. Biden would and did. Yeah. And that's really that's what it comes down to. You have to believe that that is the ultimatum. Look, you can go live in Siberia with your family. Take whatever money you've got with you and go and live in exile for the Supreme Leader. Because there is nothing else. You can't let them get back into the oil game. You just can't. That would be shocking to me if this president allows that to happen. Because the question would be, OK, but then what? Even if you could, you're not going to get access to their nuclear sites, right, to see if they're rebuilding. That's not going to happen. I don't know that you need it with today's technology and monitoring what they're doing. But that wouldn't work. I mean, if that's part of the deal, that wouldn't work. And you'll never know what they're doing on their proxies. You'll never know what they're doing with their proxies. You just won't. And you'll just be waiting for the inevitable if you're funding Iran. Because ultimately, while the economy for the people of Iran may improve just slightly, it would be just that. It would be just slightly. The money would be going for the regime to get back into the game of global terrorism. You know the incredible thing as this heats up? Oil prices lower than they were in June. And I know if you're, I don't know, somebody who might be what age would be the cutoff, 50 or 40, maybe 40, you're like, what does that mean? If this would have happened in the 70s, oh yeah, gasoline would have skyrocketed through the roof. Well, it's not. This isn't, as we all know, you want to know how you know it's not about oil, look at oil prices. It's that simple. And but what are you, in the, what's the negotiations? What are you threatening the Ayatollah with? I mean, what's the military action going to be? We're not going to put massive troops on the ground. We're not going to knock out their grid. No. We're not going to punish the Iranian people. That's not the goal here. The goal is the only goal that you can have. You're not going to have boots on the ground, I mean, to any great extent. Right. Special forces, maybe. In all likelihood, yes. CIA on the ground, covertly, absolutely. Yeah. Oh yeah. But you're not going to destroy the infrastructure. You're not going to destroy what drives the economy for the people, because you, the whole goal is not to punish the people, but to do what? Get rid of the regime. You can't trust them on any deal that you make. No. No. So what is the goal has to be targeted when they talk about a, you know, armada, I'm like, is it just propaganda throwing at them so they don't know what we're going to do? We've done that already and quite successfully in Venezuela and Iran already. Yeah. We've had faked one way and done something else, which I have to give a lot of credit, you know, to Heg Seth and the joint chiefs for everything that they have done. We know that they can do, not only do we know that we can do precise missions, they know it. Yeah, right. Yeah, I told it. Yeah, they're aware of what we can do and combined with Israel, you know, and also, you know, the potential of the Abraham Accord being expanded, what's going on in that, you know, with other nations. Iran is in a losing position all the way around. You do have the leverage over Iran, but you still can't ever get to a point of allowing the regime to get back into the oil game because they're only going to use it to fund their proxies and the expansion of their, or rebuilding of their nuke ability. And so the only answer is the Supreme Leader being gone. Living in exile and that would be your negotiation. You can live in exile or you can die. Or you and there, you know, how many other people are we talking about? A thousand? The loyalist? The loyalist, mullers and the, what are you talking about? I mean, now that would be a negotiation. Yeah. Because I believe, again, I don't have the ability of having all the CIA dead in front of me. But I think most people would agree, most experts would agree. It would be better to get them to leave and put in a transition government to then move forward to the form of democracy that the Iranian people want and have them leave. Then it would be to kill all the leaders. Yeah. Right. Yes. Because we have the ability, I believe, more desirable. Right. We have the ability to kill all the leaders. Right. But what is best for the country of Iran? And then, and therefore what's best for the world and for the United States? Right. Because if you can do that, if you can pull that off. Oh, man. As you mentioned, the Abraham Accord, Saudi Arabia with Israel, all of a sudden everything has changed in the Middle East. Yeah. Everything. Yeah. It's, and it doesn't, you know, again, it also goes in line with the, you know, the president's goal toward peace, the exception of Greenland, his entire mantra of, you know, I mean, we want to do things peacefully. We want to create a more peaceful situation globally. And if you show them, there really is no out, but you make a good point. All right. So if you, if you were to, all right, take a look beyond the Ayatollah's family. What the makeup of the loyalists would be, right? What models do you want? Yeah. Yeah. Who do you want? You know, and then you're going to have to find a place for them. I think the Ayatollah going to Russia, it appears that's been worked out as a possibility. I haven't, I don't know. I can't remember if Putin commented on that or not. But then beyond that, I assumed that that was accepted by Russia, but beyond that, do they all go to the same location or do they? Okay. These individuals want to go here. These individuals want to go here. And we're going to be basically, they'll all be living in exile in different parts of the world. That's, that would be a negotiation. That would be, that would be something that would be time consuming. It would have to be worked out. Again, it would have to be accepted by those nations where they want to go. And, you know, we'll see if that ends up being a part of it. But really that's it. What you offer them is life. What they offer you is to flee, be gone. Well, you will no longer be in power. You offer them, because if a revolution was successful, they'd be dead. Yes. So you, you're offering them life, but you're also in a way offering them a quality of life. Yes. You know, almost guaranteed quality of life. Right. Which means, yeah, living quietly wherever it is. Right. Assuming it could be a quiet. In a home, whatever, I mean, whatever, wherever you would go. So to me, that would be the negotiation. Anything else about, oh, okay, well, they've agreed to do this. Can't trust him. We all know it. Mm-hmm. And so, but I think I could be wrong, but I think if that was the case, if they were willing to negotiate it, you would have got some clues out of it already. If, if the negotiation was, we're going to allow the regime to change. If they agree to do this, this, this and this. If they, you, you're saying they would, I thought about that. They would be, the administration would be publicizing it saying, well, they would, this is our goal. They would at least be throwing out trial balloons. Hmm. Yeah. You know, you said this in our pre-show meeting and we didn't expand on it much, but you said the president seems to be riding the fine line and everything that may be a weakness to him. He's pulling. In November over the last three weeks. He appears to be pulling back into a safety zone. Yeah. On, on all fronts. I think the, the, the deal with India yesterday announced doing a number of things here that have been, okay, we got this deal. We got this deal. We got this deal. And you announced that you get everything in order. We're going to get the shutdown taken care of. We're going to get this all taken care of and done and come on. And we want everybody to play, you know, nicely and we don't want to shut down and all of that is. Oh, oh, also the other thing. Any, any, any of these blue states that if you have riots and you need help and remember last year with, there was federal help in Los Angeles and the police chief, I believe, said, we couldn't have done this without the federal help. Right. He said, if you're having riots, you have to ask us to commit. Right. And he said you, you have to say please. I was waiting for, I was like, you should have gone one step further. Pretty please. Yeah. But you have to say please. Otherwise we're going to, you don't want us, you take care of your own thing. But if you need us, ask for us and, and say please. Right. But that's basically saying, Hey, we have no interest. We have a lot less interest. If you're going to allow the riots, then deal with it. These, I can almost guarantee you these are internals coming back either to, to a house and Senate leadership or to the White House directly. The internals are coming back going, you need to clear these things up. Make them not an issue and, and move on. We are Red Eye Radio. We'll be right back with more Red Eye Radio with Eric Carly and Gary McNamara. We are Red Eye Radio. He's Eric Carly and I'm Gary McNamara Super Bowl news turning point USA has unveiled its alternative Super Bowl halftime show lineup. All right. Okay. Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Bryce, Gabby Barrett. Okay. I know Kid Rock. Yeah. I don't know anybody else. Lee Bryce. I know Lee Bryce. All right. Okay. I'm not going to be watching either way. Sunday is a work day and I don't, I won't be up that late. We got to work that night. But if I were watching on turnover and watch that halftime show, I'm going to be watching that halftime show. I don't even know what a bad bunny is. Broadcast on YouTube, X, Rumble, Daily Wire Plus, Real America's Voice, Trinity Broadcast Network, Charge and the National News Desk. Yeah. So there you go. A country music stars who perform opposite the NFL scheduled show from Bad Bunny. Right. See the NFL commissioner yesterday? Oh, I think after you saw yesterday that he understands, you know, that, you know, that basically at different events, you act, you know, you act differently and appropriate for the, I'm like, shut up. I thought to myself, good, you have no idea. You have no idea. God, I just can't stand you. You have no idea. I can't stand him as a commissioner and he's from the Buffalo area too. Well, and, and it's as if he thinks he's going to control what happens in that moment. Yeah. Once the show is on, you're not going to have any control over what he says or anything like that. It may end up being a Jim Morrison moment. I just hope he doesn't have a wardrobe malfunction. That wouldn't be good. This is red eye radio on Westwood one.
