So right about now, we want everybody, I mean everybody, stand up. Stand up. Hold your hands up high. This is about America, baby. We bring people together. I’m a United.
SPEAKER 10 :
to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty.
SPEAKER 11 :
Woo! 560 KLZ, I’m Ian Nida. Of course, this is Reggie Rocco, and I’m with the super producer. Y’all know who he is, Lukey Luke. What’s going on, buddy? Oh, tired. What’s going on, Reg? I am tired, too, man. Is there a way we could get a vacation?
SPEAKER 09 :
Wait, a paid vacation? You know, you’ve reminded me I do need to put in for a paid vacation soon.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yes, dude. How many, what do you think, a week? How long, a week, two weeks?
SPEAKER 09 :
Got a family vacation coming up. All the brothers flying in from out of town. We’re going to be road tripping around. So I think probably about a week and a half, just about. Well, let’s see if we can help Luke get, you know, double that.
SPEAKER 11 :
That’d be nice. Paid. Paid. He deserves it. Come on, Mr. Big Guy. You’re going to say, okay, yeah, that’s going to come out your end over there, that money. But, hey, man, we got a lot of stuff to go over. Send out a shout-out to Priscilla Ron. We talked earlier, contact, so she’s about to get with me. Who else? Casper, I got your message, man. I’m going to hit you back. I’ve just been running, getting this stuff together, man, facility and getting this other thing. And also, you know, those two little – Them young, they ain’t little young, they young men. Them geniuses that we had in here. What’s up to them? What’s up to Alex? What’s up to Do It? They doing big things. And yeah, you’ll be hearing from them a lot coming very, very soon. It’s amazing what they’re doing. But I want to start off with some information that needs to be out there to my listeners. I don’t want to say people because I don’t want to sound like I’m some type of messiah because that’s not it. To my fans, audience, whoever, however you want to put it, we need to start with – we always talk about everything real. We talk about everything that goes on in our state, out of the state, the whole nine. But we’re going to start with Apple. So Apple is not the same as it was when Steve Jobs was alive. I’m telling you, I don’t know what’s going on in that company. I think they’ve already sold out to China and they’re just, they’re horrible. And I think we need to protest. We need to stand up and fight this company because they have went ridiculous. Their phones are horrible. Siri’s dumber than the glue on the back of my shoe. And they charge all this money and nothing works. And then they have these platforms with all these third-party apps. And they try to let you believe that they’re not responsible for anything. They’re just taking money. And I say all the time, I love this analogy because it’s so true. If I commit a murder and you’re driving the car, you’re an accessory. So I have these conversations like, you know, what are you going to do? So TikTok is literally trying to charge me for something that I didn’t do or I didn’t receive. So, of course, I went into battle mode with Apple and they swear to God there’s nothing that they can do to stop this pending charge coming onto my account, even though my credit card is locked and they will never get the money. And their whole solution is, well, here’s how we can do this, Reg. You can go ahead and pay TikTok this money, which, you know, I did that study and all that stuff before, Luke. You know, I’m not going to do that. I already know how they steal and what they’re doing. And they’re at it again. So he said, you can take this money, and then Apple will receive this money, and then you can turn in a request to get your money back a refund. I said, is it a guarantee? Because I don’t know why you would want me to pay for something that I didn’t get. and give you this money just to turn around for you to turn around and give it back to me. No, that’s a scam. They aren’t able to get the money, so stop the pending charge and block them from trying to get this money. No, it’s because Apple is in on stealing your money too. So they want me to pay the $30, $29.88, $89 to be exact. And then put in a request for a refund. And then I said, well, what if you don’t give me my money? Whoever sits back in Apple, he said, well, then you can dispute it on a higher level. And then I said, and what if it’s still no? Well, then, yeah, then that’s just what it is. I said… I put all kind of F-bombs on that conversation. I’m like, you think I’m stupid? I said, give me higher numbers. There is no department higher than this. I said, so a man goes to the moon. We got Luke’s serious rifles are made, hitting people from miles away. You’re telling me that you cannot stop a charge from TikTok now? that comes in through your system and they’re trying to get me. You can’t cut that or block it. I said, no, that’s not what it is. You just don’t want to. You don’t want to because you want to steal my freaking money. That’s worth having your money on these digital platforms. It’s crazy. It’s crazy, y’all. It’s crazy. You need to stand up and stop it. Stop it. Go back to gold and silver, money back in the paper hardback. So this digital stuff is a scam. It’s 100% a scam. So then I get all this information, and you know me, I’m going to go hard. I’m going to go hard. I talk to people. I even talk to my attorney, you know, because nobody’s going to spend $10,000 to get $29.89. But me, I’m that dummy. I’m that smoke. Bring the smoke. Once you offend me and I start feeling like I’m a slave, I start feeling like I’m not respected or appreciated, it’s a wrap, dude. I will go to the end of the earth to battle this all the way. So I got the corporate numbers and these letters I’m preparing and all this stuff together. And Luke, literally, literally, I had Apple do a screen share with me. So they go on my TikTok account and they’re looking. a promotion, zero, pass promotions, zero, blah, blah, this, blah, blah, that, zero, zero, zero. And then I said, but you see right here, they have this highlighted with a pay button that’s glowing. It’s glowing so you can, please press pay so they can charge you for this promotion. So she seen there was no videos, no nothing, anything, so why is this charge coming through on my account? And it still did not make a difference, Luke. Even with the screen share and them seeing what I see, they don’t give a damn. They’re just here to take your money. That’s it. So I told them after, you know, like eight F-bombs and two senior people later that hung up, hung up, hung up my callback. I literally was on it, dude. I was really, really on them. They say, okay, look, there’s nothing that we can do. And your phone will not be able to work until you pay this $29.89. And I said, what do you mean my phone won’t work? Any of your apps and all the other stuff you have on your apps, you’re not going to be able to update. You’re not going to be able to download. I said, what about apps that are free? Nope. Everything on here, they have it set up to block notifications. The functionality of your phone, your life, everything you do, what you pay for. Pay for these $1,800 phones, $1,400 phones. It don’t matter. They are… I don’t want to say the word because I know the station. I don’t want Mr. Crawford… What is it? FCC? Yeah. Yeah, I got to be careful. It’s a big fine. Yeah. We don’t pay that. You pay that. Yeah, yeah. I know, man. Dang! But I want to say it so bad. We need to probably… get get a side podcast where i can just be go off because i am so freaking mad so now my phones none of them will not allow me to use my apps so coming up with my apps that i have on here that are working that it’s time for them to subscribe be renewed i can’t do it I can’t do it unless I paid them the 29. And I’m telling you, the only way I’ll pay this 29 is set up all these cameras, have everybody looking and all this, and I’ll watch with this and have everybody see just what Apple does. They’re going to take my money. I’m going to request an immediate refund. They’re going to say no. Then they’re going to say you can dispute it and take it up. Then they’re going to say no again. And then I’m like, well, where’s my money? There’s nothing we can do. You got to get with TikTok. Yeah, we’re going to get with China. We’re going to get with China who steals everything, who steals literally everything we have, we make. And they’re going to give me my money back? You know what happened to me with the China years ago. With the Meal 2. Like, there’s nothing. We’re talking about 29. Dude, we need to. I don’t care what y’all say. And I’m ready to go off on anybody. I dare you to call me and tell me anything against Trump. These tariffs or anything. Because if you do, you’re a fool. You’re a fool. you don’t know what life is you don’t know what business is you have no idea what you’re talking about this is a situation that is rough and but it has to be done it has to be done we need to make everything that we have and do in america because america and our rules with copyrights trademarks ip intellectual properties all that is We only care about that because we’re American. Nobody else does, dude. Everybody’s here to rob and pillage America. That’s why Doge is doing all of this. And it’s true. You find out that the enemy has always been within. The enemy has always been within. I don’t wanna see, and you know, I don’t care what color, what race, nationality, what gender, I don’t care if you’re a dog, cat, blue, whatever. You do what you do in your little space, but don’t try to implement that on Luke, because if you do, I feel sorry for you. That ain’t gonna happen. But the bottom line is, it’s not about that. It’s about right and wrong. And it’s just too many thieves out here, just too many people set up to take what you’re doing and to try to destroy what you create and attach to your ideas to do everything that they can to come up off you. And so boycott, listen to me, boycott Apple. They are not the company that you think. I guarantee you, by these tariffs and everything going to China, all Apple’s gonna do is move their stuff to another country for the free slave labor. It’ll probably be Vietnam or India or it’ll be one of them countries that’ll come on there and they’re just gonna start producing over there, that’s it. they they’re not they won’t shut their their doors down completely and just stay in america and just be a boss like that nah nah man these people are corrupt on every level you know doze is finding out so much stuff so many things you know i think it was like i heard it was like four or five trillion dollars on on some type of spending that was going on and they didn’t have to provide receipts or even a reason and so then soon as uh uh musk team said hey you know we ain’t even gonna look into it we’re just gonna tell you In order to get any more money, you’re going to have to have a code or something to tell us what it’s for and all that. And instead of that, instead of them saying, okay, okay, great, great. They just say, well, yeah, just cancel it. We don’t need it anymore. Because they were using money, trillions of dollars to rent out stadiums, Luke. Stadiums and all kind of events to party off the taxpayers’ dollars. With that doom and gloom, you right, man. It’s doom and gloom. We’re going to have to go through the doom and gloom to get to the sunrise. We’re going to have to. And I am so… You don’t have an iPhone, right? No. No, I don’t like Apple products in general. Hey, dude. Hey. You’re talking to a dude that was Apple… That first Apple iPhone, I’ll never forget. It was in Atlanta at the Lenox Square and over there in Dunwoody somewhere. Yeah. Lines everywhere. People everywhere. I wasn’t standing in that line. We’re in the industry. At that time, we had to have a little bit of money because I didn’t stand in line. We had probably one of our first deals or something, but I remember paying somebody to stand in line for me. Stand in line all this time. I come back like eight hours later, you know, he done moved up, you know, 20 feet. So when I finally got my phone, great. And I’ve been a loyal customer from Apple I. All the way to now. And these people are not the same, man. This company is not the same. How the system is set up, we need to break it all down. Break it all down and start over. This digital money platform takes advantage of seniors, of people who may have any other type of impediments like vision, who don’t understand computers or technology, or who may not have it. It is a mess, dude. So me, I’m a fighter. So I’m going to fight you tooth and nail for $29 because they’re actually literally stealing my money. And Apple is assisting them and letting them do it. And there’s nothing that they will do so far yet. I haven’t went to corporate, corporate, corporate yet. But I’m going to. I’ll let you guys know what’s up with that, but nah. You know, no, no. And let me tell you, anybody that has iPhones, you see this, oh, update your phone. They make you update your operating system. So if you have a little problem with your phone and you didn’t before, I’m going to tell you really what’s up with that when we get back from break. You’re listening to 560 KLZ. I’m in your nighttime.

Black Lives, MAGA, the future of media and the movement. Denver, Colorado, a battleground of radical liberal control, crime, and chaos. The far left is coming hard, backed by hundreds of millions of dollars to flood the airwaves with lies, propaganda, and anti-American agendas, all designed to destroy President Trump, the conservative movement, and the Republican vision for America. But Reggie, Rocco, and his elite team of whiz kids are standing in the way, fighting back with truth, technology, and media dominance. With cutting-edge AI, CGI, and animation, we’re building the ultimate conservative media powerhouse to expose their lies, crush their false narratives, and give power back to the people. Information is power, but those who control how information is distributed… That’s a superpower. Reggie Rocco. The left is spending billions to destroy us. We must fight back. Send your donations to KLZ 560 AM, payable to Black Lives MAGA, or donate online. At www.weareblacklivesmaga.com, they’ll stop at nothing. We must stop at nothing. Stand with us. Fight. Let’s go!

Tune in to the conversation with The Kim Munson Show right here on KLZ 560.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, yeah, you know, I’m on one. I’m always on it, but I’m on one today, yo. So, it is what it is. 560 KLC, I’m a Uniter. What’s up? What’s up, Mike? What’s up, Mr. Crawford? You know how I do it. So, it’s like this, big dog. I’m going to tell you just 100% facts, so you don’t even have to even… research and i’m just telling you you can trust me if you if something goes wrong with your iphone and you don’t have the updated operating system they won’t assist you to fix your phone they say no you have to download that or we can’t do this or that and i think they put make your iphone not work so they can make sure that you download their new operating system. Because your phone will be great. You download this stupid thing, and it’s okay. You get used to how it is now. And then all of a sudden, right around the time when it’s time for another system or a phone, your regular phone starts acting up. It’s like clockwork. That’s what they do. So, yeah, it’s a scam, big dog. It’s a scam. Now, let me take you into… The year 2012, let’s just say. So, I’m in the studio, mine, and I’m doing a project with a major company. Should I say the company? Nah, I’m going to keep it because it’s also tied into another story that I told you about Puffy. So, Anyway, we’re working. I’m down here, and I’m like, okay, great. Working in the recording studio. I got, you know, deals, stuff booked, everything. I got these, you know, people that are influential and artists and producers and stuff, people you know that you see or may or may not know, but are that or somebody behind the scenes. So I go into my studio. I go into my studio, Luke. And, you know, you have your computer, your setup, and I have all this Apple stuff. G4s, G5s, all this stuff. MacBook Pros, Logic Echo, all kind of stuff. And so then you buy these third-party softwares that are really, like, Focusrite, you know, saying Universal, Tube, you know, all these other components. Korg, you have Roland, Yamaha, you have all these other devices that make great products, and they make it where it’s a software and it’s not a hardware. So everything’s going digital, but it’s just as powerful and it’s easier. So you plug all into this system. So now everything’s plugged in here. We’re cooking, dude. Everything’s just great. So they’re gone. They’re scheduled to come back in three days. I go downstairs, turn on the equipment, and I said, okay, let me get set up. And I pull up their projects, and now Luke… in the projects where, like say on track one was, you know, the vocal, track two was a certain sound from Yamaha, another sound was from Tube, from Universal Audio. And so I’m looking at the mixing board, digital mixing board, and there’s red lines through each one of these tracks. And I’m like, what? What happened? Where is it? I know it’s here because it’s all in, I know this is what I do. What happened? The sound’s not there. So I call these individual third parties, and I finally get in touch with someone, and they say, hey, Apple updated their operating system, and our… company our material our software doesn’t work with that version that they just put out they keep doing this i said oh my god all this work all this money i’ve been paid all the stuff that’s going on i and i we got to finish the project and i’m telling you that now it’s gone stuff that we can’t recreate or get he said yeah they they up they updated it so i call apple They tell me, now back then they tried to work with you and they tell them, they say, yep, we updated our operating system. We’re hearing that from a lot of third parties. I said, well, why would you do it? Why would you do it? Yeah, I don’t make those decisions. Blah, blah, blah. The same crap. So the only solution I had, Lou, guess what? Guess the only solution that I had that would save me from one, major embarrassment. Two, lose major money from major companies. Guess what I had to do? I don’t know. What’d you have to do? Apple told me to go find the system that I had. that has not been updated so i had to go buy another computer two computers and other software and and put that software and load everything into that separate system that hasn’t been upgraded with the new operating system so that right there cost me like i say eight to ten thousand dollars but i was gonna lose a lot more so i had to go out and purchase all of that stuff and put it together within 48 hours And it worked. But that just shows you how they don’t care about the customer. They don’t care about their clients. They don’t care about that. They care about what they do and making money. And then Apple called me back. The guy helped me help set it up and get everything. I said, yeah, everything’s running. And he said, go to your automatic. update system and turn it off because apparently what happened is through the night sometime at night like a ghost a little creepy demon they updated my system on my major system and updated my operating system and now it didn’t work with anything else and did you do you think that they tried to compensate me at all do you think they did anything for me no of course not i mean these these big companies are so greedy dude
SPEAKER 09 :
You want to hear a bad one? Adobe. Adobe’s awful. I mean, you used to be able to buy Adobe products, right? You used to be able to buy Photoshop or Audition or whatever. Now it’s all subscription. Well, let’s say, you know, you license Photoshop for a little while, do what you need to do. Cool. All right. I’m done. I want to cancel Photoshop. Actually, we’re going to charge you, Reggie, to cancel your subscription. You have to pay me to stop paying me. God damn.
SPEAKER 11 :
It’s crazy. How do we? Man, I’m so juiced up with this. I just can’t believe it, man. And you’re absolutely right. So what do we do? So blocking your card. I hate to get on China, but it is what it is. Like blocking my card that I have worked at all these companies. But there’s one Chinese company that was able to charge my card anyway, even though it’s blocked. How did they freaking pull that off? So I called the card company. I said, hey, my stuff is blocked. How’s this charge come on here and able to get this charge out of there? Well, since we see here it’s been used several times before and you’ve had it for a year plus, the charge came in. We just went on and put it through. I’m like, dude, you don’t tell me what to do or how to do. I blocked the card because I want it blocked. What you’re supposed to do is make sure that my security and everything I have with the functionality of my card works. So I said, give me my money back. You don’t want description. That’s not the point. The point is, give me my freaking money back. The card is blocked. You’re advertising false security. How the heck is this company able to get $999? See, the thing of it is, dog, they take this money. and you times that times 50 million people. It’s unheard of money that these people are making. So they gave me my money back and when they gave me my money back, then I unlocked my card and then I paid for it. And that’s how it should be in reference to me being in control of my own finances. But they’re not, dude. They’re nickel and diming you. I won’t even say it. It’s $2, $3 in you to death. Your ATM, $5 to get this on this side and that side. You go over here. You use a different ATM. It’s your money. They make you put it in there. They make you put it in digital. But they still are hitting you with the charge. So it’s just fees, fees, fees, fees. Then you take that money and you take that process and that system. And you multiply it times all these people. Man, it’s a zillion. I can’t even spell zillion. It’s a zillion dollars out there. Where’s this money going, Luke? Who is this freaking money going to? Because it ain’t me.
SPEAKER 09 :
You know who it’s going to. Tell me that. It’s going to the guys up top, Reg. It always does.
SPEAKER 11 :
Dude. Dude. It’s just so disturbing, man. And then people want to get on Trump about tariffs and how to come. Nah, this whole thing need to come down. And I know it’s killing. I don’t care if any of y’all, and I don’t want to say, I’m trying to be so respectful, but I’m on one. Let’s say less informed people think that China is not hurting. You’re out to a dang mind. China is getting tore up right now. tore up china’s even let me tell you how and how ruthless they are think about luke think about if you’re versace right trump put these tariffs on there all these manufacturers are in in in china are going out people are losing jobs the sleep slave labor all that stuff is is stopping they’re not able to bring the stuff in here so china says how can we fight this back Then they start stealing up front in your face Versace’s intellectual property. Because now you can go to certain places online and they will sell you the Versace shirt that they make anyway that you don’t know how much it really costs. And they are selling stuff for half price, dude. Under half. So that $4,000 bag, give me $200. That is what’s going on. And they’re letting you know. So they’re embarrassing the American company saying, we’re just exposing that you guys have been cheating your own people and using crazy prices all along. And now since the cat’s out the back, since your leader is exposing this and he’s trying to fix it and it’s hurting us, we’re just going to tell you directly. What is Versace going to do? Nothing. What can Nike do? Nothing. Nothing. I’m already telling you, my friend over in China is telling me it’s chaotic. It’s chaotic over there. And I said, well, dang, all those jobs, all those jobs in China should be here. We’ve been taking care of the planet, yo. Everybody else in this world would not survive without little old America. That’s it. And I like equal energy. So, Luke, if you’re charging me 100% tariffs on my car being sold over there, I’m going to charge you 100% tariffs for your stuff coming over here. And guess what? Yours is more popular. It’s gonna hit you way more. I might sell five vehicles over there, but you are selling a million a year. Stuff like that. Trump is amazing. Trump is amazing, yo. I’ve never seen a multi-billionaire that has, he’s so strong. He’s a man’s man, I’m telling you straight out. That’s a man’s man right there. And we’ll talk more about this when we get back. You’re listening to 560 KLZ on the Uniter. Let’s go.

We have such incredibly loyal listeners on KLZ. You faithfully patronize our advertising partners, keeping us on the air. They are grateful and so are we. Thank you for listening. Thank you for calling and visiting our advertisers. Thank you for telling them you heard them on KLZ. We appreciate you.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, you listen to 560 KLG. This is Reggie Rocco. Of course, we always put it the real way here on Army Uniter. It’s nothing but love, but it’s logic, common sense, and it’s unwavering. We don’t care. We’re going to tell you like it is. Okay, so let’s go to this little subject for a second. You know who Shannon Sharp is, correct? No. Shannon Sharp is a ex-Denver Bronco player, Hall of Famer, champion. I think he had three Super Bowl rings, two with Denver, one with Baltimore, I believe. So he has a, you know, Stephen A. Smith on ESPN, First Take. It’s one of my favorite shows. He’s very controversial, two-faced all day long. You know, that’s the kind of dude that smiles in your face and cuts you down right after that, right in your face. You don’t know what he’s doing until it’s too late. But… Anyway, Shannon Sharp has a couple of podcasts that have been great. Then he got a deal to appear on First Take, and he’s been on there. Great, great, great. And he’s always had these commercials about Viagra and Sparks and all this other kind of stuff, right? I’m like, cool. This is my dude, man. I like Shannon Sharp because of what he did for the Broncos, and he’s just always been cool, and he’s never been in trouble or nothing. But I was wondering why he was doing all these commercials about, you know, ED and stuff. And some of the stuff on the podcast. So here’s my take on podcasts. And then we’ll get back to that. Be careful what you ask for because a podcast is full of people that don’t know about journalism or radio, and this is actually a skill. They don’t know about the entertainment. They don’t know about media. They don’t know about this stuff. They’re just coming on here running their mouth. For the life of me, I can’t even understand how people, and I’ll say mostly my people, they tell you they’ll commit a crime, and they’re videoing it as in place or right after it, or they steal somebody. I’m going to steal all Luke’s jewelry. Then in 10 minutes, it’s all online everywhere, and I’m wearing it talking about, yeah, yeah, look at me, look what I bought, and all this. It’s stupid. So be careful. No… You shouldn’t want to be and have your business all out there online across the world. But you do. So, okay, why? I thought you had a love when you were born. This is something you want to do, journalism. No, if that’s not there, why are you doing it? Is it because you want to, you know, you’re a fame hog? What is it that you’re trying to do with this? It can’t just be money, but it’s a very, very dangerous platform. And these people who own these platforms just collect your data and sell it. And they own what you put on their platform. And they want you to do stupid stuff. Because they make more and more and more and more money. You’re being used beyond belief. But with Shannon Sharp, he’s running his mouth doing all this stuff. Then come to find out, dude, he had this girl. Now, this is where it’s disturbing for me. Scary for me. She’s an OnlyFans model, which translates into his… That’s it. Selling her body for money online and doing all kinds of acts online with her camera and video, and they post it, and they have people subscribe, like you’re saying, subscriptions, and then to open up and see their page, see them doing different stuff. It’s nothing but digital porn, technically. And this dude… was with this lady, young girl, and I guess he was having a sexual intimate relationship with this monster, and it didn’t matter because she decided to file a charge on him, like R. Kelly, like Epstein, like everything else. So now, Shannon Sharp has lost his $100 million deal for his podcast. He’s now off of ESPN. And he’s saying, hold up, hold up. This is a setup. But it don’t matter if it’s a setup because she has been recording this fool. talking dirty and aggressive and threatening and everything, even though it was in the context of their relationship. You gotta consider the source. You gotta understand what kind of woman you’re dealing with because she’s on that platform. Of course, she’s a monster. And so you chose to deal with that, but you didn’t treat her like a monster. You didn’t protect yourself. So now she’s got text messages and audio recordings of all this stuff. Him saying he’s going to choke her and all this other kind of stuff. It sounds real bad and threatening. It sounds real bad. And he swears that’s how their relationship was. I’m kind of tending to believe that because, come on, man. If you’re being abused or something or sexually assaulted, you’re going to instantly call the cops. You’re going to call the cops, press charges. I don’t believe none of that stuff. This is a money grab like they did to Deshaun Watson. This is a money grab. Now, he’s done. He’s going to court. He tried to settle. He tried to settle out of court for $10 million not to bring it to life. But the lawyer that she has is a lawyer that represents some other women and stuff. And they’re out for the money. So, he’s being sued for $50 million. And he done already lost all this other stuff. So, this is what’s going on right now with our boy Steve. Shannon Sharp. He’s getting attacked by every way, every… And even the people that’s not attacking him because he’s on social media, because he built up that platform with millions and millions of people. Now, when that… Issue comes out. Everybody is now making videos about it. Everybody’s talking about it. It’s a monster. It’s a beast. It’s unforgiving where this has been and where it’s going. And he has no way out of it. So now you can’t hide, not even just to get a little bit of peace. Even if it’s false, you have now been judged and juried. And even if you get into a case and you win it, your reputation is done. You’re done. So understand what this social media machine is. You got to understand the fame. I know what the radio is. So I just tell you facts and I tell you my opinion and I keep that energy the same. And I always tell you, hey, I’m not perfect. One day somebody might come up here and say something or try to challenge something and I’m gonna put them in they place because I don’t have anything to hide and anything that I do not want people to be associated or I don’t want them to know about me, that’s my business and I’ll tell them to their face. None of your bleeping business. You know what I’m saying? Like straight up, you got to attack this. But I’ve been in this industry for so long, so I know what it is behind the scenes. I know how you have to be and how you have to handle it. I just can’t believe he is at this level of destruction. Who’s that on the phone? Johnny, Johnny, you there?
SPEAKER 14 :
Yeah, I was just thinking about Shannon Sharp. And remember, like, Oprah, she got these exclusive interviews with Michael Jackson, and then she went until after he died. Then the powers that be said, Oprah, you look around, you see your nice house here. We have something we need you to do. and then you know she brought on those two white boys and they did they said what they said when jack michael wasn’t around to defend himself exactly it just seemed like these these Evil, I don’t know, but evil is a good enough name.
SPEAKER 11 :
It’s not. It’s not. It’s not, Johnny. It’s unbelievable. But understand how powerful these platforms are. It’s like ye who was without sin cast the first stone. So I tell y’all up front, oh, no, I’m full of sin, yo. I’m full of sin, and I’m trying to get better every day. Every day I’m trying to get better. So you’re not going to get me. You can try any type of way you want, but I’m prepared for whatever it is because of my mentality. I know how I was raised. I know how I live, and I know how to enter. I’m not going to say that I have never done anything wrong, but it’s my choice to keep my personal life and everything private and And if you want to get on a platform like this and you’re willing to expose your life, your information, certain things about you, and have these digital platforms build your profile and keep it and then promote it and make money off of it, it doesn’t matter. On my phones, dude, I promise you, if I just turn them on and I talk about anything, I’m going to be getting commercials. There is no way to stop it. There is no way to stop it but to smash it. and get go back to a flip phone because even in those uh in them in the agreements my attorney told me look you don’t need to sign or agree on none of these only these uh uh fine printing these agreements because deep in that uh language in that literature is in the in the heart of that contract is what you’re they’re saying hey and we own your stuff and we have the right and you can’t sue us for this and blah blah blah but it’s now us in our pop it’s it’s theirs so
SPEAKER 14 :
I remember when David, what’s his name, the comedian, what’s his name, who had the TV show, and no, no, Dave Chappelle.
SPEAKER 11 :
Chappelle, okay.
SPEAKER 14 :
I remember he was doing, he was videotaping a show, and then he heard this camera guy say, yeah, you know, and he realized that women, I’m being used as this, you know, terrible show, and he realized he had to step back. So when Monique and Cat Williams said on the show, hey, You know, you need to, you’re 56 or 50, whatever he was old, and you need to stop this playing around.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, he’s just saying you need to get an older girl, a woman that does this. He’s like, nah, nah. You know, I understand. But see, Johnny, you’re absolutely right. But look, let me defend that part because you’re talking to someone who is single. And I’m telling you right now, I know some of the girls that I deal with are monsters. But I look at it like this. If I want a pet lion or tiger, okay, I can. I can have one, right? Yeah. But it’s on me. It’s on me to always understand that it’s a lion. It’s a tiger. If I treat it like a poodle or a house cat, it’s going to kill me. It’s going to destroy me in more ways you could ever imagine. So if I it’s okay to have one of those exotic pets or one of them dangerous you know uh animals per se quote unquote people but understand what they are you never can treat somebody that’s like that you can’t turn your head a scorpion is a scorpion a snake is a snake you know you can have them but don’t ever stick your head in the tank without no gloves or protection okay
SPEAKER 14 :
What about this non-disclosure letter? I mean, they said they only used that for marriage, but maybe if you’re at that level, maybe you should say, okay, we’re going into directions that I need you to sign this non-disclosure letter. If you don’t,
SPEAKER 11 :
out of here means nothing we’ve i’ve been on the road with with groups and major artists different shows you know certain you know 20 city 10 city five city tours i know what goes on in in before middle and after and it’s just part of it man it’s part of the lifestyle is what it is so you go in there and like i believe like nick jagger i think this is the rolling stones they used to have a bodyguard and then Any women that want to come to the after party or to the house, whatever, they had to sign what you’re talking about, an NDA. But so what? That was back then. What good is that? An NDA is not going to stop anything except for you telling somebody what you did or blah, blah, blah. In those paperwork, it has to be very detailed of, hey, You’re at this party. There’s drugs here, which is self-incrimination. There’s drinking. There’s sex. There’s all kinds of stuff going on. And you’re here willingly to participate. You have to sign that before they come in. But it still don’t hold up, dude. The only thing you can really do is not do it. That’s the only thing. So hold on, man. We’re going to break. Listen to 560 KLZ. I’m a unite time.
SPEAKER 08 :
This is KLZ 560, your home station.
SPEAKER 02 :
We live on the shoulders of giants, ordinary American men and women who put themselves in harm’s way so that you and I can live in freedom and sleep at night. Kim Munson with America’s Veterans Stories here. It is my honor to bring their stories to you each Sunday. These interviews help you learn our history from those who lived it. These stories remind us why we stand when we hear the Star Spangled Banner. That’s America’s Veterans Stories Sunday, 3 to 4 p.m. and 10 to 11 p.m. right here on KLZ 560 and KLZ 100.7 FM.
SPEAKER 16 :

We handpick advertising partners to protect and improve your home. We serve as a second home where you can join a community of like-minded individuals. We are Crawford Media Group, and you’re listening to KLZ 560, your home station.
SPEAKER 11 :
Woo! 560 KLZ. I’m in your night. I’m Johnny, Johnny, Johnny, Johnny. I’m Lukey Luke. So, yeah, man. To that subject of NDAs, yeah, you’re absolutely right. It helps. It helps. But, dude, the whole system is corrupt. And I can’t blame… Now they’re saying that this man is bisexual. You’re caught in compromising positions. And when you’re a star or you’re just… And trust me, YouTubers and TikTokers, all these followers and all, they’re not stars. They’re not stars. They shouldn’t even be called influencers. They should be called manipulators. Because these platforms right here, I mean… If you like anything, say you’re going through TikTok, Instagram, and you like something that’s a commercial or something that somebody did, they’re sending you commercials. So now on your For You page where you really want a whole bunch of people with different things going on in the world, most of the stuff coming through your For You page is advertisement. This is how they’re getting you. Don’t like anything. If you want to just be… incognito and just find out what’s really going on just go on there don’t don’t comment don’t like nothing just scroll because that way you’re not feeding into the other rhythms and you’re not also getting letting them know what products that they like or something that somebody’s doing in the product that they sell on that platform because now you’re bombarded like i go in here i was literally counting the commercials versus you know actual content or the people was going out in the world and it’s like 70 30 commercials now So, you know, it’s all a setup, dude. It’s all a setup.
SPEAKER 14 :
And you were talking about the subscription. Okay, but YouTube, if you don’t want any commercials, they’ll charge you $14, like, I think it’s either $14 or $19 a month. So, what I did, I just came up, lost my credit card, whatever, because I don’t want to pay that, but yet, as far as, like, I’m monetized, and I’m only, I started monetizing in 2021, To now, and my payout is $100, I’ve only made $45.49. In three years? In three years.
SPEAKER 11 :
And so you’ve been paying how much a month for three years? $14 until I stopped it. Whoa, Luke, do you hear this? I hear it. I hear it. So, dude, I love validation, man. I love validation. I tell everybody every day. And let me put you guys up on some new stuff because those two guys that were here last week, I’m telling you, they used to tell me your data and you got to get younger and this and that. You got to understand what’s going on so you don’t get in that situation. Johnny, it is a manipulation thing. tool all the way across they are making so much money let’s go to music you’re into music you know i’m into music and stuff so uh right now dude anybody anybody i mean luke could go to some platforms get to some ai and some music stuff type in stuff and have them create a song And you can do it, and it’s yours. It stems down low. You can do it. So it doesn’t take any writers, any producers, anything no more. So already, you as a writer or producer or artist, you’re getting obliviated, dude. So they’re putting this platform. So you put all this stuff together. You subscribe to this subscription. You get your stuff done, long story short. You get the song done. Then you download it. Dude, it sounds like it’s mixed, mastered, everything. Everything. Everything. And so now you have it. But right now they’re doing it where you can own the copyrights. You can own what’s up. But let me tell you, in the near future, and I mean near, they’re going to set this up to where if they create something, not only are you on a subscription platform, but they’re going to own the copyrights and share in that copyright and that publishing. Trust me, and then they’re gonna get you to go put it on a platform like distro kids or whatever iTunes and then they’re gotten that you have to pay those those subscriptions and you’re gonna be paying and not them and they’re just gonna sit back and Collect money from you from the subscriptions are creating stuff they’re gonna sit back and collect money from you from the copyrights or publishing and then the And distribution, digital distribution outlets are going to sit back and collect money because you sign up on them. Now, I tell them, I have people I consult all the time. I’ll say, hey, man, listen to me. It used to be really hard, hard in the music industry for real talent to get through. But now it’s super incredibly hard because you don’t have a way. You got 10 million people on the platform that’s not talented, not doing anything, versus 500,000 or a million that were. Now you got all these people that don’t have to do anything. It could be… my 12 year old friend can get online type some stuff in and then i’ll have a have a song and if they know how to put it out blah blah blah but they’re going to be losing money because the platforms is like just told you he said it’s the subscriptions that’s how they do it so that song would go to a distro kids and they’re they’re charging you 60 70 a month To just have your stuff sitting on the platform. So how do you sell? How does your song stick out? Even if it’s AI or whatever, how does it stick out with 10 million people on the platform? How does it stick out? How do you sell? You’re not. And you just told me on air that you’ve been paying for a subscription for what? How many years? Four years? And you made $100. Yeah.
SPEAKER 14 :
I haven’t even made that yet. I made just $45.49. Golly. From 2021 until I cut it off last November because I said, this is not working for me. It’s working for you, but it’s not working for me.
SPEAKER 11 :
Man, but I told you, like, I told you, like, two years ago. Like, that’s not the way. You can’t do it. You can’t do it. I told you in my day, you were able to do a song and you print out a physical CD and you can sell those CDs out the trunk of your car and to individuals and you can re up your money. You can get your money back, even though that’s how. China stole from me. We had it pressed up over there. But if America would have been on their game, we’d have all the pressing and production plants to do that kind of stuff would be here. And at least I can roll up on the company and say, hey, what the heck? But over there, overseas, you have no control. Nothing, nothing, nothing. So you’re going to get got. There is no winning. If you want to do this, what you have to do is build your own platform To charge other people to be on. You are not going to make any money as an artist selling your stuff on any platform, no. If you do the numbers, the people on there versus the people who are making any money, no. So you’re not going to make any money that way. The other thing is, if you don’t know how to set up copyright, publishing, trademark, all that stuff to set up to put it on a platform and make it. And then, like radio, where we are. Radio pays… the ASCAP, BMIC, SAC, they pay for songs to be on there. They make their money from advertising. I don’t care what radio station it is, that’s what it is. So that part right there is another setup that has to be done. So how are you making money? You’re not, you’re losing money. You’re losing money, and it’s a lot easier to sell 10 million people a dream than to make 100,000 people’s dream a reality. So that is a sucker game. The music and all that stuff is not the same anymore. So you need to set up. You need to get behind what Trump’s doing 100% and get these tariffs. Bring all these jobs back here. I don’t care what it is. What job? Bring it all here. all here and concentrate like he’s doing the ai thing concentrate on that concentrate on getting younger concentrating on something the platform that you can at least try to maintain and create jobs and wealth in the united states because we are getting destroyed over there buddy
SPEAKER 14 :
I don’t know if you might remember when you were saying that Petey walked into the studio and he just said, hey, I like that, stamped his name on it, and then he got part of it. That was happening back in the 50s with these, I guess, DJs or whatever. They would stamp the name on it and these guys would say, wait a minute, he didn’t have nothing to do with this recording. Why is he getting a piece of it? So they just found a new way. through these subscriptions do the same thing.
SPEAKER 11 :
The same thing, buddy. And it’s even more powerful. It’s way more powerful. And I feel bad for my boy Sharp because he’s a good guy. I don’t know him personally. But I will tell you this. I’ve seen him and his brother and I’ve had a… interaction every time I see his brother I’ve seen him like maybe three times in my lifetime at different places one was at the zoo you know another was at a mall you know so you know we know each other but we’re not in each other circles like that so but I’m telling you I feel I feel bad for him because As long as he’s – if he’s dating a woman and she’s of age, long as she’s of age, I have no problem. A little too young for me, but long as she’s of age, I have no problem. And if he wants to deal with a tiger, a lion, a devil, whatever it is that he’s dealing with, I mean, that’s dangerous. That’s on him. That doesn’t mean he’s a criminal. That doesn’t mean he’s a – anything that doesn’t mean he did anything wrong because me i’m trying i deal with a lot of tigers and snakes and scorpions on the on the woman’s side too so trust me yeah hey hey don’t believe it dude don’t believe it But he’s in trouble, man. Trump is the answer. Being a conservative, waking up, getting all this stuff and this money counted and calculated and put these jobs in America and get all these criminals and all these illegals and all that got to go out. I don’t care. A lot of the girls I deal with, they don’t even speak English. So I would bet you that they are in some type of illegal immigrant in some form or fashion. And if they are, they got to go. I don’t care. But you know what, dog? We got to count it down. It’s already ready. Time to go. Three, two, one. And we out.
SPEAKER 13 :
Yeah. All right, y’all. It’s that time. We out of here. But you’ve been listening to KLC 560 AM. I’m a United Reggie Rocko. Yeah. It’s fun. 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. It’s about love, y’all. Have a wonderful morning and a great day.
