SPEAKER 09 :
It’s finally Friday on Rush to Reason with your host, John Rush.
SPEAKER 06 :
So I tell him I’m a pro jack.
SPEAKER 09 :
And who do you think they give me?
SPEAKER 06 :
The Dalai Lama himself. So we finish 18, and he’s going to sniff me. And I say, hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know? And he says, oh, it won’t be any money. But when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness. So I got that going. And movie reviews with Andy Payne.
SPEAKER 15 :
I think that you got the wrong impression about me. I think in all fairness, I should explain to you exactly what it is that I do.
SPEAKER 06 :
What I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.
SPEAKER 07 :
What do you want to do tonight?
SPEAKER 15 :
The same thing we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world. Stick a fork in me, Jerry.
SPEAKER 07 :
I’m done. Now, here is your host of Rush to Reason, John Rush.
SPEAKER 03 :
Happy Friday. It is that day of the week. We have a lot of fun. We’ll do movie reviews and NFL picks, and we’ll have spy movies in hour number two, and Andy Pate’s with me. Good times. Always a joy. Up first, though, Hunter from Cub Creek Heating and Air Conditioning. Hunter, welcome. How are you, sir?
SPEAKER 20 :
Doing well, enjoying this beautiful weather before it turns off cold again.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, and I was just thinking that I’m guessing because of all the cold weather we’ve had, you guys have been a little busy.
SPEAKER 20 :
Just a little bit, but that’s okay. Okay.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, it is. That’s how it is. I mean, you know your world. That’s how things work, and you guys are prepared for that. So for those folks that are listening where maybe they’ve had a few issues here over the cold weather, things aren’t heating quite right, whatever the case may be, what are some tips and tricks you can help them with?
SPEAKER 20 :
Obviously, make sure you’re checking that filter. I know I say this just about every time, but especially lately with our furnaces running as long a run times as they do in these colder weather in this colder weather they could run. Multiple hours a day or both the day at that so just make sure that you’re staying on top of that filter with that furnace running a little bit more and stuff you’re obviously going to get more. That filter is going to get dirtier. As far as the rest of it goes, make sure with the snow and stuff we get, if you have condensing furnaces where the flues go outside the wall low, make sure that the snow is not blocking them or that you don’t have anything else in front of those. But yeah, those are the two main things that we’re seeing a lot of.
SPEAKER 03 :
Some things I have read of late, and I see differences of opinions on this, and I wanted to get this right from the horse’s mouth. When it gets a little cooler, what some people will – or, sorry, when it gets a little colder outside and they want to warm the inside of the house up is what I meant to say, a lot of folks will run around in the rooms that they don’t use as much. They will close those vents off, hoping that they’re going to then push more hot air into some of the areas that they are using. Is that a good idea or a bad idea?
SPEAKER 20 :
Not – It’s not a great idea to go around shutting all the vents. So that system is essentially designed based off of static pressures, how we get the air going to where we want it. Okay. That being said, all of those vents, that system is designed to run with all of those vents open. Okay. So essentially, your registers are a damper. Now, if you do have a colder room in the house and you have, say, a heat run in the basement where your basement’s unfinished and stuff like that, it is okay to shut a few registers to try to get that airflow a little better in a different room. But don’t go through shutting a whole bunch of registers on an entire floor or something. Ultimately, that’s just going to put a bigger strain on your furnace and can cause things like… high static pressure, and it can cause it basically to overheat and go out on high limits.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. And, again, that was my question. And, again, you read some of these things, and you’re like, well, is that really true? Is that not true? I feel like you, and I know how some of these systems are supposed to be designed, and I understand that you might have a bathroom that’s always hot, and maybe you want to shut that register down just ever so slightly in the bathroom. Okay, great. Knock your socks off. But to your point, Hunter, don’t go around and shut off six or seven vents.
SPEAKER 20 :
Yeah, like most things, the truth is usually in the middle.
SPEAKER 03 :
There you go. Okay, so right now, what do you guys like time-wise if somebody’s got a problem or they end up having a problem even as we head into this colder weekend and early next week, which our temperatures are still going to be. We’re still January, February, Hunter. We’re still in the middle of winter. Bottom line is people are still going to be running their furnaces for quite some time. If somebody has an issue, what’s your time schedule like right now?
SPEAKER 20 :
If it’s an emergency call, if you’re without heat, that is an emergency in our mind. So if your furnace is completely down, we will try our best to get to you within 24 hours because we do run into issues with the temperatures being as cold as they are right now. of pipes freezing and stuff like that.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay, perfect. We appreciate that. Those of you listening, you can always go to klzradio.com and find Cub Creek there. Hunter, I know you’re busy. I talked to your dad earlier this week, so I know what your schedule’s like. You get after it. We’ll let you go, and I appreciate all you do for us and our listeners.
SPEAKER 20 :
Yeah, John, and if I may add one more thing.
SPEAKER 03 :
Sure, go ahead. You’re fine.
SPEAKER 20 :
Go ahead. Yeah, we had kind of a scary call lately, too, and it just kind of brought that to the forefront of my mind, too, is making sure that Make sure your carbon monoxide detectors are up to date. The batteries are changed and everything’s good. And that goes for even if you don’t have a furnace. We had one this morning, in fact, that was caused from a wood-burning fireplace. So just make sure that those are up to date because it is important and it is scary if you get that.
SPEAKER 03 :
You know what? I’m going to steal that and use it in the morning on Fix-It Radio as well and remind people of that, Hunter. That one’s a good one. Thank you. I appreciate that very much. And for all of you listening, we want you to be very safe, so absolutely. Hunter, as always, appreciate you very much. We’ll talk to you again next month, if not sooner.
SPEAKER 20 :
All righty. Sounds good. Thanks, Hunter.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right, Hunter. Appreciate you very much. And again, Cub Creek Heating and Air Conditioning. Find them at klzradio.com.

SPEAKER 17 :
Suck it up, buttercup. Back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 11 :
And welcome back to Rush to Reason. Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, John Rush, together with Andy Pate. And John, are you ready for a movie?
SPEAKER 03 :
Always, Andy. Always. This one especially.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, this is an interesting one.
SPEAKER 03 :
The previews look good on this one.
SPEAKER 11 :
I thought so, too. Well, John, can Mark Wahlberg play a bad guy?
SPEAKER 03 :
I mean, he’s the ultimate good guy. I was going to say, not often.
SPEAKER 11 :
It’s especially hard because he’s like the ultimate good guy off the screen.
SPEAKER 03 :
Very true. Right?
SPEAKER 11 :
I mean, patriotic, good guy, but not patriotic, but not in your face. Everybody loves him. He always plays a good guy. Well, can he play a bad guy? Heck yeah, in Flight Risk.
SPEAKER 07 :
I’ve never been a fugitive before. Government witness, not a fugitive. You ready to go?
SPEAKER 14 :
Is it always this bumpy?
SPEAKER 07 :
You get used to it. Moretti is very disappointed in you, and he wants you dead. Tell me how to fly this thing. Pay attention. That’s the good part. Damn it! I’m gonna enjoy this. You ever see a face turn this color before, huh? I’m gonna tear you apart. Y’all need a pilot?
SPEAKER 10 :
Y’all need a pilot. That’s pretty good. I love that line.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay. Well, John, this is basically a three-person play in the air.
SPEAKER 10 :
That’s what I heard.
SPEAKER 11 :
And it’s in a very small plane, isn’t it? A very small cockpit. Well, you have an air marshal transporting a criminal informant back to Washington to testify for trial.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 11 :
They’re up in Alaska. And, of course, they’ve got to get him down to where? Seattle. And then from there you can… A Biden relative?
SPEAKER 1 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
Sorry. Yeah, I’m sure it is.
SPEAKER 11 :
Sorry. I didn’t check.
SPEAKER 03 :
Sorry.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay. Well, anyway, it’s just the air marshal, the criminal informant, and the pilot.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, Michelle Dockery, and remember her from Downton Abbey?
SPEAKER 03 :
Yes, yes, yes.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay. Well, she stars as Madeline.
SPEAKER 03 :
Lady Mary.
SPEAKER 1 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 11 :
She stars as Madeline, the marshal. Does a fine job, too, by the way. Topher Grace, and he’s from Eric, that 70s show. I don’t know if you remember him.
SPEAKER 03 :
That one I never watched.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay, well, he is Winston, the informant. But most people want to see Mark Wahlberg, right? And he’s the pilot of this tiny plane. Well, Wahlberg plays Daryl. And before long, we realize he’s more than a pilot. Daryl is a hitman sent by a crime family to kill Winston before he sings for the authorities. Well, that makes sense. I mean… Mob guy, you know, the mob is going to go after an informant. They’re going to want to stop the informant from making it to their destination. And the fact that she could only get to him way up there means she can only take a little plane back. It’s a good opportunity. They’re going to take their shot. I thought that was good. Also, Daryl loves his work. And that’s a real problem. Daryl is a sicko. Okay. Daryl really likes to kill. So the mob basically sends him because he’s basically a human weapon. Wow. Yeah. Okay. All right. Well, when truth becomes known, Daryl subdues Madeline. This is very dangerous since they are flying over the frozen state of Alaska with all those Rockies, right? Not a great place to go down. Madeline also has some tricks up her sleeve, but there’s a problem. Daryl is the only pilot in the plane. You can’t just kill him. So imagine this. Even if you get control of the plane, the only guy who can fly the plane is the one who wants to kill the other two. So you’re in a real bad way. Somehow Madeline must regain control while making sure she can still fly, navigate, and land. Well, thus ensues a battle of the three with no allies between them. Each opposes the other two. And, of course, Daryl is just a very scary guy. Along the way, we learn of more dangerous influences. As Madeline, she’s got to decide who she can trust, who is dangerous. When you’re not a pilot and you’re trying to fly a plane over the Alaskan Rockies, and, you know, they kind of show you that also there’s wind whipping around, the wind shears and so forth up there. Well, you really need to trust the radio voice that’s guiding you. You really need to be able to trust them. So who can Madeline trust? And can anyone survive? Just how great is the flight risk? What do you think?
SPEAKER 03 :
Sounds good. I mean, previews look great.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, I think so. Well, what works in flight risk? First of all, this film is quick, John. It’s only an hour and a half, 90 minutes. Mel Gibson, he’s the director. He directs it with plenty of plot twists and intense moments. The viewers around me certainly didn’t sound bored. And there was a decent little crowd there Thursday night, right? A decent little crowd in there, and they seemed to have a very good time. Eternal good guy Mark Wahlberg clearly enjoyed being bad for once, right? Interesting angle for a hitman. He’s sick. He’s a human weapon. Instead of just being a professional… This is a guy who likes to do it. All right. Dockery brings some depth to her role. I was really impressed with her, John. It’s pretty formulaic. I’ll be honest. You’ve got an agent. She’s got a past, right? She’s made mistakes in the past. But Dockery pulled this off very well, though, bringing out all the emotions of her character that she goes through throughout this film. And she goes through a lot of them. I was very impressed with her. Topher Grace steals the show. Now, he’s somewhat, I don’t know, I’m going to say he shocked the movie with humor. He’s funny. He’s flat out funny. He was one of the funniest characters I’ve seen in the past year, and I did not expect that. I didn’t see that coming. You see the preview. It’s all action, right? Right. You don’t think there’s any comedy in this. Oh, yes, there is, and it’s him, and he’s good. The CGI action. Okay, it was cheesy. I’ll admit it’s cheesy, right? They didn’t put the kind of money into this that you might put into Star Wars. Let’s just say that. But it’s fun. The ending was good. And honestly, John, this is just a good little thriller. Now, what doesn’t work in flight risk? Well, it has the pieces, but they don’t always fit together. The humor, it feels a bit jarring. You know, we move from humor to serious to action. It just isn’t cohesive between them. It’s kind of like this is put in here, this is here, this is here, this is here. And it’s very jarring and not very cohesive. I don’t have a better way to put it. Have you ever just watched a movie where it doesn’t really flow?
SPEAKER 10 :
Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER 11 :
yeah well that’s kind of happening throughout much of the movie i would say and it’s almost like if you’re going to do this much humor early on keep it rolling or don’t do it pick one you didn’t know i guess really the movie didn’t know what it wants to be next again the background for madeleine was very formula as was the whiny informant and he was very whiny and you have that a lot in these movies right the informant is always some whiner and that’s why you can press them and get information because they’re a whiner And we’ve seen that too many times. Next, one villain toward the end looks too much like a villain. It was too easy to read. Made it too easy to know what was coming. And I think Mel, you know, kind of made that too easy. I’d like a little bit more mystery there. Okay. Now I’m just going to tell people right now, this is getting really negative reviews. And they seemed really exaggerated due to hate for the Trump supporting Mel Gibson. Mel Gibson is a Trump supporter.
SPEAKER 03 :
And Wahlberg’s kind of conservative as well.
SPEAKER 11 :
Wahlberg leans right lightly. Lightly. He stays out of the political stuff.
SPEAKER 03 :
He doesn’t say much.
SPEAKER 11 :
Basically, he leans heavily into being patriotic.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right. Correct. Which the left hates, too.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, the left hates that, too. But really, this is about Mel Gibson. I read a bunch of reviews just to get a feel for it, because this only got from Rotten Tomatoes 20%. Wow. Okay.
SPEAKER 03 :
That means it’s a dog.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, it means it’s a disaster. And when I was in the I mean, the audience certainly did not see it that way. I didn’t either. I’ll get to that in a moment. The audience reviews were 66 percent over three times. Wow. The critics. Yeah, this is one of those things. And, you know, me, I’m going to shoot straight if it’s a conservative movie and I don’t think it’s good. Remember Homestead?
SPEAKER 03 :
You’ll say so.
SPEAKER 11 :
I’ll get it alive.
SPEAKER 03 :
Absolutely.
SPEAKER 11 :
That’s just the way it is.
SPEAKER 03 :
Absolutely.
SPEAKER 11 :
Not here. This was quality. I’m going to give it three stars for general audience.
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s not a bad movie.
SPEAKER 11 :
No, it’s a good… For me, personally, it’s a four.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 11 :
This was a tight little thriller. Okay. It was very funny. I haven’t laughed this… I haven’t enjoyed a character for humor this much in a long time. Okay. It had… It didn’t wear out its welcome. I like the plot twists. I really like Michelle Dockery in the lead. I thought everybody did a good job. It was very good.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay. For general audiences, I don’t think they’re all going to like it quite as much as Action Andy. So I’m going to give it a three. overall i think it’s yeah i think i think you would enjoy it okay this reminded me a lot of the beekeeper oh yeah great movie which i felt got silly toward the end but overall i thought good movie fun movie it was a great movie okay and what’s that one um from a couple years ago oh gerard Butler, he made a movie a couple years ago on Plane. Remember Plane? That one got panned by the critics. I thought that was a good movie. Good point. Good, solid movie. That’s what I think of this. Political 3, more religious 3, doesn’t say a thing. Do I recommend going to see Flight Risk? Folks, I do.
SPEAKER 03 :
A nice cold weekend, why not?
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, and like I said, it’s only 90 minutes. You’re not going to be in there that long. It’s… 90 minutes of fun and intensity, and I enjoyed it.
SPEAKER 03 :
You could prove the critics wrong, if nothing else.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
You could also prove the critics wrong, if nothing else. I mean, literally, because these guys need to be put in their place at times. Come on, guys. Honestly. Right. Get your politics out of this.
SPEAKER 11 :
I mean, now and then they would say some things where I’m like, yeah, I agree with that. That’s lacking in the movie. I agree. They were ripping the script to shreds. I thought the script was not cohesive at times, and I told you that. So it’s not a work of art. Well, it’s not meant to be. It’s a work of fun. Right. I don’t care. Okay, I’m having fun. The beekeeper was not a work of art with the script.
SPEAKER 10 :
No, not by any means.
SPEAKER 11 :
I don’t care. I’m having fun.
SPEAKER 10 :
Right.
SPEAKER 11 :
Is that making sense? Yeah, absolutely. Okay, folks, do I recommend going to Flight Risk? Yes, I do. Bring somebody along. Have some fun.
SPEAKER 03 :
I saw an ad today for Beekeeper 2, by the way. Really? Yeah. I don’t know if that was real or not, because you know how that is sometimes.
SPEAKER 11 :
I do hope they tighten it up a little. Gal Gadot’s in it? Well, that’s cool.
SPEAKER 03 :
So it is going to. Yeah, if that’s a real promo.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, if she is, I like her and I like him.
SPEAKER 03 :
And I agree with you. There’s some things in that movie they could have done to have made it a little bit more interesting, faster, whatever you want to say. Because especially the beginning is a little bit. Oh, yeah. You know, it’s like, okay, let’s go, guys. Move it along. This is an action movie. Get the action going.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah. As you’ll remember, I recommended The Beekeeper. It was a good movie, though. Not with huge reviews, but with good, solid reviews. But I went against the critics on that. I think most people agreed with me. I think they’ll agree this time.
SPEAKER 03 :
It was a nice revenge movie.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, it was. Oh, yes. For those who don’t remember, The Beekeeper. Who does he go after?
SPEAKER 03 :

Okay, John, well, you know, sometimes people inherit wealth from their parents, right?
SPEAKER 03 :
That’s true.
SPEAKER 11 :
And sometimes they inherit trouble.
SPEAKER 05 :
That’s true, too.
SPEAKER 11 :
Let’s find out which in Inheritance.
SPEAKER 05 :
It’s written all over you.
SPEAKER 11 :
What?
SPEAKER 05 :
You’re an artist. No, you’re in a band. Maybe.
SPEAKER 02 :
Maybe.
SPEAKER 05 :
No, no you’re not. You’re a spy.
SPEAKER 06 :
You’ve had a brutal year. You’ve just lost your mother. Let me be your father.
SPEAKER 01 :
I thought you were trying to get control of your life.
SPEAKER 02 :
I’ll do anything to get out of this place.
SPEAKER 06 :
I built something here, and I want you and I to run it together.
SPEAKER 15 :
Doing what?
SPEAKER 06 :
Gathering information.
SPEAKER 15 :
Like a spy.
SPEAKER 06 :
It’s a big word. Maya, leave now. Go.
SPEAKER 14 :
Where are you? What is going on? Where’s my dad?
SPEAKER 05 :
Something happened to him.
SPEAKER 06 :
This is Interpol. You’re in possession of stolen U.S. government property.
SPEAKER 03 :
If you go to the police, he’s dead. If you don’t bring it to us, you are dead.
SPEAKER 07 :
Do not go to India.
SPEAKER 14 :
I’ll do it.
SPEAKER 06 :
You can’t get to South Korea. Watch me. You’re willing to take risks to get things done. You know what you want, and you know how to get it.
SPEAKER 14 :
Are they looking for you? He’ll kill me if he finds me.
SPEAKER 05 :
Who are you spying on?
SPEAKER 02 :
I’ll never tell.
SPEAKER 11 :
All right, John, what do you think?
SPEAKER 03 :
This one I know nothing about, Andy.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay, well, Phoebe Dynavor, she stars as Maya, a young woman with a challenging life. Now, Maya’s been caring for her mother, who is dying. This takes all her time and energy, so when Mom finally passes on, Maya goes on a fun binge of shoplifting, drinking, and sex. But at the funeral afterward, Maya and her sister, Jess, well, they’re shocked to see someone they haven’t seen in years. Their father, Sam. He’s played by Reece Iphans. Have you seen him? He’s actually been in quite a bunch. What’s his name again? Reece. R-H-Y-S.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, I know who you’re talking about.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yes. Well, he wants to reconnect. Sam also has a job proposal for Maya. It seems he’s a real estate broker and his clients are largely wealthy foreigners. So Sam wants Maya to travel the world sealing deals. The whole thing sounds pretty shady, right? But Maya could use the money and she also wants to at least try having a relationship with her dad. Setting aside Jess’s concerns, Maya agrees. Well, soon Maya realizes Sam handles real estate the same way, and sorry for adding politics in here, but I have to, in the same way Hunter Biden handles art. Gotcha. For money laundering, okay? And Sam insists it’s for good causes, but who knows, right? Well, then things get crazy as Sam is kidnapped, and Maya is told she must retrieve a hard drive with important data on it or Sam will be killed. This sets Maya on a global race against time, eluding criminals and cops alike to save a father she only recently got back. Fortunately, Maya’s a survivor. She’s smart. But the question is, just how shady is dear old dad? Can Maya survive dangerous car chases while unlocking the mystery? And just what is her inheritance? That’s the story of Inheritance. What do you think?
SPEAKER 03 :
Story sounds good. Is it a good movie is the question.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, here we go. What works in Inheritance? Well, first of all, much or all of the movie is filmed with cell phones, giving it that guerrilla footage look. I just want to let you know that. You ever seen those that are filmed pretty much with cell phones? So a little bit of shakiness, and it’s also you’re up close a lot. Next, there’s an inventive car chase scene that’s actually a motorcycle chase scene, and it’s very inventive. You feel the tightness and the speed because this is all being filmed filmed from a phone that’s mounted on the bike so you’re up close and you’re looking just ahead and just behind and threading through all these people trying to get away from all these cars this was easily the best part of the movie it was about 10 minutes long well done okay the next thing that works in this movie is this absolutely nothing john Oh, my gosh.
SPEAKER 03 :
That bad, huh?
SPEAKER 11 :
That bad. Here we go. What doesn’t work in Inheritance? First of all, for a spy movie, this is one of the least spy movies I’ve ever seen. The trailer made this sound more exciting. It made it sound like a spy movie. They keep saying, well, you’re a spy. This is a spy. This is spying. She does virtually no spying. This is mainly just trying to track down info and track down Dad and see what he’s all about. There’s very little spying in this movie. The handheld camera work produces an annoying cheap feel with an incredible number of close-ups. This was something. It seemed like much of the time, half the screen was her face. Seriously. And don’t get me wrong, Phoebe Dynavor is very pretty.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, that would get annoying.
SPEAKER 11 :
But all these young actresses are pretty. Who cares? My gosh. This girl in real life must really like herself. But then again, she didn’t direct it, so who knows. This film had more walking around than The Blair Witch Project. I’m serious. Forrest Gump didn’t run this far. He didn’t log this many miles. We see her walking around, walking around, going through customs, going through the airport, walking through here, walking through this shop, checking this, walking here, walking there. With maybe 40 minutes of story and 140, I mean 120 minutes of movie. No, no, no. In about 100 minutes of movie. Okay. Sorry. It was not as long as I thought it felt that long. How’s that? About 40 minutes of story. About 100 minutes of movie. I mean, it was, I swear, I spent an hour watching this woman in super close-up walking around. We watched Maya get her cardio. There’s nothing interesting about the cops or the bad guys at all. Nothing at all. They’re just stereotypes. In fact, John, there’s nothing interesting about any side characters or even Maya herself. We care about her situation, of course, but she’s one of the least interesting main characters I’ve ever seen. I didn’t care. I didn’t care about her. I didn’t care about her friends. Didn’t care about dear old dad. Didn’t care about the cops, the bad guys, anybody. Didn’t care. Reese Ifans, who’s an Irish actor, he tries to nail the American accent, sort of falls short. I’m not saying he does his role poorly. He does it quite well because he’s actually a terrific actor. What a waste. Okay. John, I don’t even know if art film lovers have the patience for this dog.
SPEAKER 03 :
Is that bad?
SPEAKER 11 :
It is slow. I mean, slow, slow, slow.
SPEAKER 03 :
Spy movies are supposed to be fast.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, move it along, man. Bring the intrigue. You did have some plot twists. Don’t get me wrong. You just don’t care. Because you’re being bored.
SPEAKER 03 :
Because you’re yawning the whole time.
SPEAKER 11 :
You’re yawning throughout them. Okay, Rotten Tomatoes, they did not like this movie, but they gave it 46%, which is 26% more than they gave Flight Risk. No. No! I’m going to say this out loud to Hollywood and to all the reviewers. No! You’ve got to be kidding. You gave this more than twice the rating that you gave Flight Risk? This dog? Yeah. This travelogue?
SPEAKER 03 :
It shows you the politics involved.
SPEAKER 11 :
It shows you the politics involved. This is why I always tell you the political score. Why? So I can pull it out of the quality score, right?
SPEAKER 12 :
Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER 11 :
Ick! This is awful quality. I’m going to say one star for general audiences because they’re probably more patient than me. But for me, it was a half star. This was awful. I’m going to give it one star just because I like Recyphens. And… There you go. Barely one star. Political three, more religious three. Well, more religious. Let’s say two and a half.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay. It’s a little icky right at the beginning, but who cares? This is so bad, I didn’t care.
SPEAKER 03 :
You’re going to see it anyways.
SPEAKER 11 :
No. No. Folks, do not go see Inheritance. Don’t do this to yourself. Love yourself.
SPEAKER 03 :
This is one of those that you don’t even rent.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yes. Don’t rent it. No. Gosh.
SPEAKER 03 :
Spend no money on this movie.
SPEAKER 11 :
And more importantly, no time.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, because you’ll never get it back.
SPEAKER 11 :
You will never get it back. You will never get it back. I mean, it is awful. Inheritance is a dog. It is worthless. Once again, it blows my mind, first of all, that these arty critics gave it 46%, which is not good, but still. At least they’re saying it’s tolerable. No, it isn’t. It’s incredibly boring.
SPEAKER 03 :
So this is a movie that I’m guessing will have a hard time recovering its cost.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, there’s very little cost.
SPEAKER 03 :
Because of the way they filmed it and such. Right. Got it.
SPEAKER 11 :
So it’s very low cost. So at least they got that going for it. I don’t know if the art crowd will boost it enough to where it breaks even. I don’t think so.
SPEAKER 03 :
Sounds like a total yawner no matter what.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah. By the way, I think flight risk will make money. That’s my prediction. Not a lot. It’s not going to be a hit. But come on. It’s a January thing. throwaway movie, but it’s going to make money. That’s my prediction.

Now back to Rush to Reason on KLZ 560. All right, we are back.
SPEAKER 03 :
Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560. Appreciate you all listening, by the way. As we close out the week, we’ll come back here in just a few minutes and do NFL picks, of course. Not that many for the weekend because of where we’re at now on the game schedule. Down to four teams, John. Getting down to the end, and then we’ll do movies with spies. Question of the day. Yesterday, what is the largest volcano in the solar system, and on which planet is it located? It is Olympus Mons, located on Mars. It is the largest volcano in the solar system. I wouldn’t have ever guessed that.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 03 :
I don’t know anything about other planets like most do. No, I don’t either. I just never… Never was anything I was really ever intrigued with. Well, I’ve never been. Oh, there’s a good point. Yeah. Today’s impossible question. What was the primary purpose of the Rosetta Stone, and why was its discovery so significant? What was the primary purpose of the Rosetta Stone, and why was its discovery so significant? And I don’t know this stuff either.
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, it’s code, but yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah. No, I have no idea. Okay. I’d have to go watch a movie about it to know more about it, I guess.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, do that.
SPEAKER 03 :
At any rate. Anyways, if you love to and like to, and a lot of people do, go to our Facebook page, answer those questions. There’s a lot of great dialogue at times, and some of you are really into the question of the day, which I appreciate greatly. So answer that there and have some fun at the same time. That’s really why we do it. And Producer Ann does a great job of finding all of those. So Ann, if you’re listening, thank you for doing that because that takes a lot of work to find. All of those. Oh, yes. I couldn’t. Yeah, no. No. I’m doing good. I do a question of the day. Yeah. Yeah, question of the day on Drive Radio every Saturday. I’m doing good, Andy, just to come up with one of those on a Saturday. Really? Car-related. And that’s your thing. Yeah, doing it every day. Yeah, no, because it’s like, okay, well… What do you come up with? I don’t know. I don’t know. It’s just mind-boggling at times. So, yeah, that’s not my forte. It’s not the way my brain works. No. So, anyways. All right. So, movies, guys, as well. So, this question for you, Andy. Yeah. Given it’s the January end of things and not as great of movies and so on. Generally, yeah. Yeah. Is there any good ones coming down the pike or no?
SPEAKER 11 :
Movies coming down the pike? Oh, gosh. No. No.
SPEAKER 03 :
Honestly, just looking up ahead, I… Because once you go, do you see the previews and all that kind of stuff? Yeah, yeah. Is there anything that looks halfway decent coming out or no?
SPEAKER 11 :
Nothing that really excites me right now, just by the looks of it. But I don’t, you know, I’d have to… This is just it. This is why I do the reviews and then I get surprised and it’s pleasant and nice. But, you know, the Thunderbolts looks like it could be fun on May 2nd, but that’s a ways out.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right.
SPEAKER 11 :
You know, Mission Impossible 8, of course, is May 23rd. That looks great. But once again, that’s quite a ways out. I’m thinking anything, you know, coming up really quick, I’m not seeing anything.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay. All right. Good to know. All right. And then last but not least, and we’ll talk more, of course, on Tuesday when it comes to, you know, the first full week. By then, we’ll have a first full week of, you know, Trump in office. But so far, so good. There’s a lot of things he’s already done. I think there’s folks out there, Andy, wishing he would do more. But realistically, what he’s done already in about four days’ time, I mean, I guess you could say five because he did some things Monday night. But, yeah, I mean, I don’t know anybody out there in their right mind that should be complaining.
SPEAKER 11 :
No, it’s fantastic. And he is really racking up the PR victories, too, with them being able to show, look at the criminals we’re getting out of here.
SPEAKER 03 :
Absolutely. And some of the video, if some of you out there listening haven’t seen it, there is some great video that some news stations even put together where, you know, they show up at the 5 a.m. raids on, you know, what they know to be very violent criminal illegals that are here. And they’re rounding these folks up. Well, did you see the guy from Haiti? What a jerk. Wow.
SPEAKER 11 :
But, I mean, everybody, all the Republicans want to just play what he said over and over and over. Because it’s like an ad for the Republican Party. It’s incredible.
SPEAKER 03 :
I mean, I’ll be careful how I say this, but I think in some cases, shipping these guys home is too good. Yes. I mean, dead serious.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah. I mean, some of them deserve worse. Much worse.
SPEAKER 03 :
The death penalty in some cases.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yes.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, literally.
SPEAKER 11 :
I wonder what happens in those cases. I mean, if somebody deserves to die… Do you ship them out anyway? You know what, John? With the current American legal system, you might as well.
SPEAKER 03 :
But I don’t have any choice. What’s the point? Because you’re going to be drugged down forever if you don’t.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s just going to cost us a bunch of money as taxpayers.
SPEAKER 11 :
You’re going to be paid. Send them back to their country of origin and say, your problem. You deal with them. We don’t want to house, clothe, feed, and guard this person for the next 10 years while they work their way through the system. No thanks.
SPEAKER 03 :
So here’s another question. Even though they deserve it. We’ll talk more on Tuesday, of course. But do you think other countries now have figured out that we mean business or that Trump means business?
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, I think they got that.
SPEAKER 03 :
Did they get the message yet?
SPEAKER 11 :
I enjoyed his speech. What was that at Davos?
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 11 :
I mean, a little heavy-handed, but I enjoyed it.
SPEAKER 03 :
Among those individuals? It needs to be. By the way, those guys don’t take – how should I say this? That’s the group, if you’re going to be heavy-handed with, you need to be because they’re bullheaded. They don’t get it.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah. He’s making very clear – look. I am representing America. It’s been very interesting for the last four years, and this is what we had for eight years with Obama.
SPEAKER 03 :
The apology tour.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, the apology tour, but here’s what we had. In all our negotiations with every country around the world, what we had with Obama and then Biden was both sides were on the same side of the table. Obama cared nothing about America. Biden absolutely was – at least Obama wasn’t owned by foreign interests.
SPEAKER 03 :
I was going to say, Biden was more worried about the pay under the table.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah. All Biden cared about is who owns me and what do I get. Obama is simply a zealot who obviously does not like America. Hated America and wanted to apologize for it. And it was really painful to watch for those 12 years, watch our side basically negotiate for the other side. I mean, it must have been really incredible. And you’ve got so many countries around the world who are just like, this is really incredible. America’s leaders are literally giving us America. And now there was a clip from some leaders at Davos afterwards who made it very clear, we lost this election over there. We’ve lost. We lost.
SPEAKER 03 :
Which, good.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, but why is this your election? Right. You lost. Why? Because you lost somebody who was giving you everything. Right. They were giving America away.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right. Good. I’m glad it ended.
SPEAKER 11 :
You know, and I understand some people get really angry with all the talk of tariffs and so forth. And I understand if you actually did put in all these tariffs, yes, inflation would be a problem, a big problem. But it’s negotiating. And, John, if we took out all the tariff talk, if he wasn’t doing that… You’d have no leverage. What leverage would we have?
SPEAKER 03 :
You wouldn’t have any, Andy. Right. You have to do that.
SPEAKER 11 :
Our only leverage around the world is the American consumer and say, look, if you want to get to the American consumer to buy your products…
SPEAKER 03 :
pony up called the almighty dollar and yeah or give us lower your tariffs on which is happening as well in some cases or commit to buy a bunch of our products do whatever but it’s got to be better india is already doing some of that yes as we speak we talked about some of this this past week all right other things too that are really quick in the news before we go to break which i i don’t know how you’d even verify some of this but i’ve seen some things on social media i take it with a grain of salt because who knows if it’s real or not but supposedly Vladimir Putin wants Fauci in Russia to answer for crimes against humanity because of some of the things that he did. I have no idea, folks, if that’s real or not.
SPEAKER 11 :
That seems like an Internet kind of spoof.
SPEAKER 03 :
I highly, highly doubt that’s true, although what’s interesting, today Trump ended his protection that we as taxpayers pay for, and if he wants it, he’s got to pay on his own.
SPEAKER 11 :
You know what actually worries me? I do like it. I think the man’s a mass murderer. I think he’s terrible.
SPEAKER 03 :
And why should we protect him on our dime?
SPEAKER 11 :
Right, but think about this. You’ve got people like me saying he’s a mass murderer. You’ve got people like Trump saying he was a terrible problem. And then he removes his protection. What if something happens to Fauci? It could look really bad. I don’t know. I get a little concerned about it just from that angle.
SPEAKER 03 :
On the same token, I think what Trump said is if you want protection, you hire your own. We as taxpayers are not doing this anymore.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, yeah, you’re a multimillionaire who made unbelievable sums of money.
SPEAKER 03 :
Out the backs of us, so go hire your own.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, hire your own. Absolutely. He doesn’t deserve state-sponsored protection. Absolutely not.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, the only protection he deserves state-sponsored is behind bars, Andy.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, you know me. I’m always, though, thinking, how will the Democrats use it?
SPEAKER 03 :
I know. Again, if he gets his own protection and so on, who knows? Would I have done it? Yes. Yeah, because that’s money wasted. Probably the best way to look at that. We’ve got other things we need to be worrying about as a country that need taking care of, and his protection is not one of them.
SPEAKER 11 :
Why are we guarding this millionaire?
SPEAKER 03 :
Correct. He can do it on his own. He made that money, by the way, on the backs of taxpayers.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yes, he did.
SPEAKER 03 :
Literally. All right. We’ll be back here in a moment. Golden Eagle Financial is coming up next. Speaking of finances, and if you want to become a millionaire someday, talk to Al Smith. He’ll help you on your journey. Give him a call. Find him at klzradio.com.

SPEAKER 08 :
Live and local, back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 03 :
Sam Mueller just sent me, he’s my old co-host, sent me a note that Fauci has about $80 million in the bank. He can handle his own.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely. I’m only thinking about the PR. But I’m all for cutting it off. He can afford his own. He robbed us blind so he could kill people. And I know, I know, it’s only my opinion that… Look, I think his actions led to death.
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, I agree. I agree. And you and I are in agreement there. I think that’s pretty factual at this point in time.
SPEAKER 11 :
He channeled funding for gain-of-function research in the lab where this almost certainly came out. Come on.
SPEAKER 03 :
And I know we’re running out of time. We can maybe talk more on Tuesday. But it’s a crime, in my opinion, in and of itself, for a government worker doing what Fauci has done in his career to now have $80 million in the bank. That in and of itself is a crime.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, that’s really yikes.
SPEAKER 03 :
Sorry, that is a problem. What is wrong with that picture?
SPEAKER 11 :
A lot. I would say a lot. Hey, can I mention one other news story?
SPEAKER 03 :
Go ahead. You’re fine. We’ve got 40 seconds. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 11 :
Pete Hegseth is going to be voted on. They’re going to vote on him in a little over three hours to decide if he’s going to be our Secretary of Defense. Go, Pete, go. It’s looking right now like it’s a 50-50 vote. And if that’s the case, then J.D. Vance will break the tie. So if we lose one more, we lose Pete Hegseth. Let’s hope not.
SPEAKER 03 :
And I think, by the way, in my opinion, Andy, he’s our most diciest one of them all. Yeah, he’s the toughest. He’s the toughest. We get him through. What I mean by that is we get him through, we’re probably pretty good on all the rest. Smooth sailing. That’s why this is, in my opinion, a very important one.
SPEAKER 11 :
Yeah, Matt Gaetz was the only one that was really impossible.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, that’s not going to happen anyway. All right, we’ll be back. Hour number two is next. Don’t go anywhere. Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560.
SPEAKER 1 :
Bye.
SPEAKER 12 :
The Average Guy’s Ordinary Average Guy.
