Join host John Rush as he recounts his recent vacation experiences, emphasizing the importance of unplugging in a hyper-connected world. Discover the culturally ingrained dress codes at all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and how Americans’ casual attire starkly contrasts with international visitors. In this episode, the conversation navigates through societal norms, evoking both nostalgia and introspection about the perceived ‘slobbish’ culture in the US.
SPEAKER 06 :
This is Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 16 :
You are going to shut your damn yapper and listen for a change because I got you pegged, sweetheart. You want to take the easy way out because you’re scared. And you’re scared because if you try and fail, there’s only you to blame. Let me break this down for you. Life is scary. Get used to it. There are no magical fixes.
SPEAKER 06 :
With your host, John Rush.
SPEAKER 03 :
My advice to you is to do what your parents did.
SPEAKER 18 :
Get a job, sir. You haven’t made everybody equal. You’ve made them the same, and there’s a big difference.
SPEAKER 01 :
Let me tell you why you’re here. You’re here because you know something. What you know you can’t explain, but you feel it. You’ve felt it your entire life, that there’s something wrong with the world. You don’t know what it is, but it’s there. It is this feeling that has brought you to me.
SPEAKER 02 :
Are you crazy? Am I? Or am I so sane that you just blew your mind?
SPEAKER 05 :
It’s Rush to Reason with your host, John Rush. Presented by Cub Creek Heating and Air Conditioning.
SPEAKER 08 :
And we are back. Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560. Myself, Andy Pate, Charlie Grimes. Okay, one thing that we usually do, and I know Andy hasn’t had a chance to do this yet, but he and I will typically recap what either we learned from or observed from vacation. I didn’t have the ability to do much in regards to news and all of that because I had really bad service, and that’s not normal for me. Yeah, you were cut off. Yeah, I had to learn to kind of, you know, in a way, unwind I guess and a lot of you even that texted it was really funny some of those text messages wouldn’t even come through and I have no idea why.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay before you even go into describing some of your trip what was it like to be forced to unplug?
SPEAKER 08 :
Actually, the first day or two, I was like, okay, wait a minute. I’ve got things to do. I’ve got some stuff I need to get handled, and I need to communicate with this, that, and the other. Right. At the end of the day, no, I didn’t have to, and it was really nice. And once I got past that, it was great.
SPEAKER 04 :
You know, it’s a little weird, though, when you’re in a job where it is your job to talk about all the world events. Obviously, you’re away from your job. You’re on vacation. I get that. But still, this is how you’re wired 24-7 all year round. Correct.
SPEAKER 08 :
It’s kind of weird. It was very weird. Let me just say that. It was really weird. Now, did it all work out fine? Absolutely. So what did I learn? I know I’ve talked about this in the past, but it just continues to amaze me the amount of people, men especially. In this case, it was men. Because even though you go to an all-inclusive resort, There are certain restaurants inside of all-inclusive, this is very typical for Mexico, by the way, where they will require you to wear long pants, collared shirt, and shoes. In other words, you can’t wear your flip-flops, you can’t wear shorts, and you can’t just wear a T-shirt to dinner at certain restaurants. the amount of people that evidently don’t read the website prior to going and then are running back from you can see them they’re really about ready to go into the restaurant somebody says something to them and they’re literally running back to their room to go put on somewhat close attire to actually go to dinner first of all it’s like okay did you not read anything on the front side as to where you were going second of all is it so bad to actually dress up for dinner You are there with your, in most cases, wife, and you’re there to have a good time and enjoy each other and so on. And the wives, by the way, all of them are all dressed up. They’ve got on nice dresses and this, that, and the other, so they look really, really nice. It’s like, okay, guys, is it really too much to ask to actually dress up a little bit?
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, for me, it depends on the restaurant. Right. Of course.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, these are designed to be, I mean. You’re talking about fancy places. Yeah, you’re not getting five-star dining at all inclusive, but they imitate five-star dining. Let’s put it that way. So the impression is that it’s higher end and, you know, you’re at your own table and there’s flowers on the table and so on and so forth. And they’re giving the impression that it’s five star. I mean, it’s food quality. No, it’s not. But the experience is right.
SPEAKER 04 :
You want your attire to match the decor. Correct.
SPEAKER 08 :
And it amazes me at how many it amazes me how many guys can even take their ball caps off, which I was taught, Andy, when you sit down to eat, no matter what you’re doing, if you have a hat on, you take it off, period. That’s what I was taught growing up.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, I can’t imagine wearing a hat while eating.
SPEAKER 08 :
Charlie, I’m sure you were taught the same thing growing up, that if you’re going to sit down and have a meal at any kind, your hat comes off. Andy, I can’t tell you how many men never get that memo. I’ve never been taught, I guess.
SPEAKER 04 :
I don’t understand this. I’ve never even thought about that. I would not even imagine wearing a hat while I’m eating. Not that I’ve never really thought about it. Would I be really against it? I mean, obviously, in a totally casual place, you’re all for pizza. That’s totally different.
SPEAKER 08 :
No, I’m getting the point where I don’t even like that. It’s like you’re there for a meal. Take your dang hat off. How hard is this? Have some manners is my point.
SPEAKER 04 :
Now, if I’m at Pizza Hut, do I need a bow tie?
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, that’s totally your call. Maybe a checkered one to match pizza. But I guess maybe I’m getting so much the other direction now because I’m so frustrated at the slobs Americans have become. Because this one thing, too, when you go to international places like Mexico, for example, there’s a lot of people that go to Mexico that aren’t just from the U.S. They come from all over the world because it’s easy for them to get there in some cases. They can come from South America. They can come from Brazil. They can come from… Europe and places like that and you’d be surprised how many people travel that aren’t from the US and here’s the thing they’re not the ones that I’m talking about we are we’re the slobs they’re not why are we such slobs what’s driven us to be such slobs in America
SPEAKER 04 :
I don’t know, because it’s also true in a lot of companies and workplaces. The ties have gone away. Dress down day. People look forward to it so much. People loved it. I think also COVID affected all of this.
SPEAKER 08 :
Okay. Made it worse or better? Made it worse, right?
SPEAKER 04 :
Made it worse. Well, John, forget work for a moment. You know I live in a neighborhood.
SPEAKER 09 :
Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER 04 :
And Corey and I, we like to go on walks. We hold hands. We’re pathetic, I know. And we’ll see these young teenage girls running around, and they’re in their pajamas. And that’s very common now, okay? And I don’t want to be all judgy. I guess that’s the thing now.
SPEAKER 08 :
Oh, I will be because, no, that is not the right way to dress going outside of your house.
SPEAKER 04 :
I know that. I’m just saying I’m old. That’s all I’m saying. And it just looks weird to me. Why are you in your pajamas? I mean, literally, they’re in their pajamas. I don’t know, Andy. And so what I mean is dress down has gotten crazy. And I’ve seen that for a number of years. But post-COVID, I see it way more. Why? Because people were in their pajamas while working at home in front of a computer because they were dialing in.
SPEAKER 08 :
You’re probably right. You know what? I really hadn’t thought much about that. You’re probably correct.
SPEAKER 04 :
And now and what would they do? They would be working in their pajamas at home and then it’s time to go down and get the mail. We have our mailboxes there in our subdivision and they just walk in their pajamas. And then everybody got used to just seeing each other in their pajamas. Not me. I would not do that.
SPEAKER 08 :
I couldn’t I couldn’t think of any that would never cross my mind to do that. Yeah, I can’t do that. I drive my wife crazy because I rarely even wear a T-shirt.
SPEAKER 04 :
Would you wear bunny slippers?
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, no. I don’t even own a set, so no is the answer. Absolutely not. No. No. I mean, I’m one of those guys that even when I don’t feel well, I get up, I get dressed. I typically have a collared shirt on. It’s just who I am. And I know that at times I’m weird, but. Charlie said, would I wear a onesie like Dan wore? No, I would never wear a onesie. A onesie. No, not going to. Point being, why are Americans such slobs?
SPEAKER 04 :
I don’t know. I mean, I’ve been retired for many years, you know, so I’m a jeans and T-shirt guy. Yeah. If I had to go, but when I go to do a presentation, obviously I dress up.
SPEAKER 08 :
You’ve seen me. You’re not wearing shorts and a t-shirt, right?
SPEAKER 04 :
No.
SPEAKER 08 :
You’re dressing for the occasion, correct? Yeah.
SPEAKER 04 :
Unless it’s a barbecue and then you’re supposed to dress up.
SPEAKER 08 :
And that’s all I’m asking is, you know. Why has it become so hard for Americans to dress for the occasion? And by the way, it’s mostly it’s not always men. I get some women to your point earlier. Some women and young girls can even fall into that category. But typically speaking, and in this case, looking at some of the some of these guys going to the quote unquote higher end restaurants. Right. It’s not the women I’m talking about. It’s their husbands.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, no, the girls are usually wanting to look good out in public.
SPEAKER 08 :
They want to dress up.
SPEAKER 04 :
The guys don’t care. And also, as you know, I’ve gone to a number of political events. I will say this. You’ve got to dress right for the event. And I’ll even ask the people who are running it sometimes.
SPEAKER 08 :
What kind of events is it going to be?
SPEAKER 04 :
Right, because sometimes if you’re going there as a speaker and you come in a suit, they hate it.
SPEAKER 08 :
Because you look so different than everybody else.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, you look stuffy. And so you want to be relaxed and more fit in with the public there. And, you know, it’s really hard. But I will say this. Since COVID, it’s gotten worse.
SPEAKER 08 :
You know what? I hadn’t really thought much about that until you just said that. But that actually makes total sense.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 08 :
Unfortunately, it makes total sense.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, and by the way, people put on more weight so their suits don’t fit. And they were at home, and they put on their COVID-15, right? And so now they dress more casual everywhere.
SPEAKER 08 :
Somebody just texted in that years ago, in-laws traveled around the world. One of the things that they heard constantly from people in countries they visited was that those folks in those countries could tell who the Americans were, the American tourists were, outside of all of the others because Americans were described as sloppy, rude, and demanding. They spent a lot of time apologizing, by the way, for how bad a display Americans made of themselves overseas. And by the way, I can understand. I’m like Trump. He’s trying to clean up D.C. Part of it is a to show Democrats how bad things are. I also believe that Trump is doing that to show tourists and other people to come to America. This is the gateway to the country. We have a beautiful country. Let’s highlight it. And I think as Americans, as we tour around the world, we should be the exact same way. We shouldn’t be slobs. That’s my feeling.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay. Fair enough. Really quick here. Before we go to break, can I mention something I learned on my trip?
SPEAKER 08 :
Absolutely. Of course.
SPEAKER 04 :
You’re going to like this. I learned John Rush is right about trucks. And, you know, I rented a car in Green Bay because I had to go kind of around the state. You know, my wife and I, she was visiting relatives. Right. And the truckers… When you’re a truck, right, and you’re going to pass another truck, if you take literally several minutes to pass the other truck because you’re only going one or two miles an hour more than them.
SPEAKER 08 :
Stay behind the other truck.
SPEAKER 04 :
Stay behind the other truck. But, John, it was an epidemic. I’ve never seen it this much. I’ve never seen it this much ever. And I’ve gone back to Wisconsin probably just while you’ve known me. A dozen times. Never before have I seen so many truckers out on the interstates or on these other roads holding people back and enjoying doing it. I don’t know why they became such speed Nazis, but they delight in holding people back for a long period of time. And I don’t say that just because, well, I believe they delight in it. No, I know they do because why else would you do it? All you got to do is go an extra mile or two an hour faster and you get around, you pull over, you let people by. I always do that. I never want to hold up traffic.
SPEAKER 08 :
Okay. I agree, Andy. I’m with you on that one. And I talked about this on Drive Radio several weeks ago, and my feeling on that is it’s because a lot of them are very undertrained.
SPEAKER 04 :
Is that what it is?
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah. That’s my thought process. That’s another industry, back to what we were talking about with Jordan Goodman last hour, that’s understaffed in a lot of ways, and they are in a lot of ways cutting, in my opinion, cutting as many corners as possible to get these guys to have a commercial driver’s license. I see. A CDL. Meaning they don’t have the etiquette necessary to be in the truck.
SPEAKER 04 :
No, they don’t. They don’t understand etiquette at all. Look, there are people who are trying to get where they’re trying to go, okay? And these trips, really quick here. No, go ahead. Go ahead. Okay, because I like to do the road trip thing. Corey and I like to see. You do. We like to see the countryside.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yes, you do.
SPEAKER 04 :
Not if we’re going down to the southeast, we’ll fly, you know, or Texas, whatever.
SPEAKER 08 :
Right, right, right. But certain places we like to drive. Really quick, what’s your max driving that you’ll still drive, hour-wise?
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, northern Wisconsin.
SPEAKER 08 :
Okay, so that’s it.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, that’s my max. But when you’re going across Nebraska, and coming back across Nebraska, it literally took an hour and a half longer than it had to just because of trucks. Just because they would go, I always call it parallel parking, okay, when they go side by side and go really slow. I think they enjoy it, okay? I think they really do. I think they get off on it. I think they love holding people.
SPEAKER 08 :
By the way, lots of texters are agreeing with you, so you’re not the only one saying this.
SPEAKER 04 :
I think they like holding people back, and it’s kind of like, you know, look, I don’t know if some people tailed you too tightly before in the past or tailgated you or whatever, but you know what? I’m not them. I’ve never met them. I’m just trying to get home. OK.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yep.
SPEAKER 04 :
And it took an hour and a half longer just to get across Nebraska than it should have. John, that’s a long time.
SPEAKER 08 :
That’s ridiculous.
SPEAKER 04 :
It is. And it was all because of trucks parallel parking.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah. OK. Thank you, by the way. You’re solidifying some of what I talked about, you know, two or three weeks ago. So at the end of the day, you are spot on, Andy. I cannot argue with you on that one. At all. All right, let’s come back. We’ll take a quick break. Veteran Windows and Doors coming up next.

SPEAKER 06 :
putting reason into your afternoon drive. This is John Rush.
SPEAKER 08 :
And we are back. Myself, Andy Pate. Nels is next. Nels, go ahead. Yeah, John, I’m a CDL driver.
SPEAKER 17 :
And I wanted to say part of the problem with trucks going so slow passing each other is because the companies that own them govern them at like 70 miles an hour.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yep, yep. And really quick, Nels, do they do that because of the lack of experience in a lot of the drivers that are out there, or do they just do that across the board, period?
SPEAKER 17 :
I think they do it because the insurance company wants them to drive a little bit slower.
SPEAKER 08 :
Okay, that makes sense, too. Yeah, I can see that.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay, but here’s the question, Nels. I mean, if you are being held to that speed, wouldn’t you pretty much stay in the right lane and not hold people back?
SPEAKER 17 :
Well, yeah, that’s kind of what you have to do because if you can’t pass somebody, you don’t have any options. Right.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, I’ve seen some trucks, and Nels, you have too because you’re in the industry. You see this far more than even I would. I’ve been in situations where it takes several miles for one truck to pass the other.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, that’s the case. Well, we’re driving trucks, and they’re governed at 75, and you’re still passing every other truck on the road because they’re governed at 65 or 70. Gotcha. Yeah. Gotcha.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, in your case, fine. If you can even go five miles an hour faster than the other truck, you’re going to pass them relatively quickly. It’s not taking miles and miles to do so. You’re not having that issue. And I also was going to add to what Andy was saying last, and I’ll get your opinion on this, Nils. I also feel like part of the reality of what we’re encountering, and this is not to belittle anybody, but we did see a news article here a couple of weeks ago along this very thing. You’ve got a lot of folks. that are driving trucks in America, that are not here legally, they’ve gotten a commercial driver’s license in states that allow that to happen, and in the country they’re coming from, Nels, there is no etiquette. They have no idea what etiquette is. Am I right or wrong?
SPEAKER 17 :
Well, that’s right, but also you have to take this class for the CDO, and I just took it. It’s pretty much a joke. How come? The thing, well, you know, it’s, I agree. I agree. Yeah. They probably didn’t. It’s a one-size-fits-none approach.
SPEAKER 08 :
You got it. That’s my complaint, Nelson. And I’ve talked, again, I talked about this a few weeks ago, got criticized by just a few truckers, by the way. Most everybody was on the same page that you’re on, even those that are in the industry. And I am in that industry in some ways. And so at the end of the day, I know these are the things that happen. And to your point, there is no regulation on how many hours you have to have before you get behind the wheel.
SPEAKER 17 :
Right. And while for drivers like me, If I had to take a 50-hour class, it’d be a waste of my time.
SPEAKER 08 :
Absolutely. You could teach the class.
SPEAKER 17 :
Yeah, probably could.
SPEAKER 08 :
You could, yeah. Given the experience you have, Nels, you could teach the class easily.
SPEAKER 04 :
In fact, Nels, you’re probably so good at it, it wouldn’t take 50 hours.
SPEAKER 08 :
That’s a good point.
SPEAKER 17 :
You can teach it a lot quicker. You know my younger brother, Soren.
SPEAKER 08 :
Oh, yes. Absolutely. He could probably teach it. Oh, he probably could. You’re exactly right, Nels. Absolutely. Yes. Absolutely. Well, and you bring up a great point. It’s a one-size-fits-none because none of it is being done effectively, and we’re seeing that by some of these accidents and other things that happen around the country. The point is being proven by the accidents that are happening.
SPEAKER 17 :
Well, and you see, the over-regulation doesn’t help anybody. If it was self-regulated, it would work a lot better.
SPEAKER 08 :
It usually does. Absolutely. Great way of saying it. Nels, I’ll let you go. Thank you, by the way. That’s a great addition to what we were talking about. Thank you, and thanks, Soren. You have a good brother there, so thank you.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, he does. John, let me ask you this. Okay, forget about truck driving for a second. Let’s just talk driving. Okay, you’re in your car, and you’re coming to work, going home, whatever. And you come up on somebody and you’re just going a little faster than them. Little, right? And so you get around and you’re getting ready to pass them. There’s nobody behind you and you just ease by them. All right? And you pass. You’re going, say, three miles an hour faster than them, two miles, whatever. And so you slowly go by them. There’s no one behind you. However, what if there are people pressing behind you because they just want to drive faster? Do you pass a little quicker and then get out of the way? Yes.
SPEAKER 08 :
I do too. Yes. That’s etiquette.
SPEAKER 04 :
To me, that’s etiquette. And so what I’ll do is I’ll speed up, get around them very quickly, and get over and let people go by. But here’s the big problem, John. There’s a lot of American drivers right now who get offended if you want to pass. And so they will say, well, gee, I want to pass this person, but I’m going to take as long as I can because these people behind me should not want to drive that fast. Right. I’m here to judge how they drive. I’m here to judge how they live their lives. Now, I can understand if they’re being reckless. That’s different. But I’m just talking they want to drive faster than me. Well, guess what? What’s wrong with that? I don’t care if somebody wants to drive faster than me. Let them.
SPEAKER 08 :
Go for it.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah. I’m not a speed nanny.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, there’s times with me. It’s like, okay, if you want to go fast, go ahead. In fact, sometimes it’ll be like, you know what? You can be the decoy. They’re going to catch you before they catch me, so have at it. Yeah. Speed on out there.
SPEAKER 04 :
I mean, I can understand if they’re being totally rude and coming up just a couple feet behind you and being ridiculous. Maybe even then, you know what, I would just get over it.
SPEAKER 08 :
I still just get over Andy and that person as well. It’s not worth the argument otherwise.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right. But at least I can understand somebody saying, okay, now I’m mad. But in general, if somebody’s pressing behind you, pass quicker.
SPEAKER 08 :
Had several different comments from you guys texting-wise back to the dress code thing, you know, really agreeing with all that we were saying. And I got information a moment ago that there are actually, in the Texas Panhandle, there are some school districts now that are putting in strict dress codes. No T-shirts, a gentleman must wear a collared shirt tucked in, and so on. Thank you. Well, let’s combine the issues.
SPEAKER 04 :
While you’re passing someone on the road, have a tie-on for Pete’s sake. What do you think? At least look the part.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, this person also said how in their area it’s very unkempt, I guess you could say, to not be dressed accordingly and have on a collared shirt and so on.
SPEAKER 03 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 08 :
So, by the way, thank you, by the way. I appreciate that. And there’s a lot that I think a lot of Americans could learn. I’ll give you – okay, one more thing real quick. I just got to throw this in.
SPEAKER 04 :
Go ahead.
SPEAKER 08 :
I was watching – before I went on vacation, I was watching a quote-unquote influencer. It came on my feed somehow. Quote-unquote influencer that – got invited on one of the fancy first-class airplanes to go fly from XYZ to XYZ. I don’t remember exactly where they were flying to, but it was in a new club, and it was a new way of flying. If you’re one of the members, they even take your bags right from the curb, and they usher you through, and they help you through security, and it’s all simple, and they take your passport and blah, blah, blah. Anyways, the whole thing is like this luxurious thing that you do. Keep in mind, key word, it’s very luxurious. Even the cabin area that they went to on the airplane, they showed video of and so on. Very luxurious. Not economy. Not even business class. I mean, very luxurious. And I’m not joking. The lady doing the video had nothing more than pajamas on, and I am not exaggerating. Serious? And I’m thinking to myself, you are, quote, unquote, an influencer that’s out doing this entire video on how great this organization, this airline is. And by the way, this proves something. I can’t tell you where she went and what airline she was on because all I could concentrate on is you look like a slob. Seriously.
SPEAKER 04 :
John, I don’t know when this became the thing for girls to wear PJs out in public. My wife never does, by the way.
SPEAKER 08 :
And not only that, and hair not even done up. I mean, literally looked like a slob. Oh, really? I’m thinking… an influencer they’ve invited you to go on this grand tour if I would have been them truthfully me had that been me as the as the head of the marketing sides of things and I knew an influencer was coming and we had compliment ticket and this that and the other and they showed up like that I’d say yeah you’re not you’re not doing a video looking like that because you will be what everybody’s looking at not actually the experience and by the way that’s exactly for me personally what happened I don’t even remember the airline now all I could all I could think about is you’re a slob that’s all I could think about
SPEAKER 04 :
You know, I just had a terrible picture of truck drivers in PJs while they’re driving.
SPEAKER 08 :
I’ve seen some guys in videos where they climb out of the truck at times, and it’s like, yeah, that’s not the way that should work either. All right, we’ll come back. Andy’s got some things he wants to talk about in regards to the death penalty. Dr. Scott is up next. Wants to be your doctor. And by the way, he’s my doctor. Great, great doctor himself. Great practice is what I meant to say. And he does things differently than what you’ve been used to.

SPEAKER 06 :
Call in to the KLZ studio line, 303-477-5600. Now, back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 04 :
And welcome back to Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, John Rush, together with Andy Page. John, I want to talk a little bit about… Well, I’ll get to the death penalty in just a second.
SPEAKER 08 :
As you know, while you were gone, of course, there was this heinous murder. I saw just a teeny bit of that, mainly this morning. I couldn’t see any of the videos while I was gone, but I was able to catch up this morning on it, and it is beyond horrifying.
SPEAKER 04 :
And, of course, you have the black guy named DeCarlos Brown, white woman named Irina Zarutska, and a lot of people, of course, have been asking. I asked it on the show yesterday. What if their races were reversed? How big of a story would this be? Right now, and obviously there would be a national uproar over it. Actually, there’s starting to be one anyway. He was going to be let out so he could come back for a trial date or whatever. This guy slaughtered a woman. Okay, this is not a parking ticket. All right. And unbelievable. I mean, this guy is a murderer, murderer, murderer, and we know he is. Now, the department, let’s see here, Kash Patel and Pam Bondi, they are saying federal charge, heinous Charlotte murderer. So he’s going down. And as Pam Bondi said, he will never again see the light of day as a free man. Here’s my question. Why is he still alive? Now, in the Old West, he’d already be put to death. It wouldn’t matter, black, white, whatever. True. They’d have already killed you.
SPEAKER 08 :
True.
SPEAKER 04 :
You’d have been hung.
SPEAKER 08 :
True.
SPEAKER 04 :
There was a time when, for quite a while, a lot of us, even I, was a little hesitant with the death penalty. I believe in it, but I was hesitant. Why? I just want to make sure I don’t wrongly put someone to death. And here’s my question. Have we, for the most part, gone beyond that in our society? Could the death penalty make a comeback because of all the information? This guy’s on film. We’re all on film. We’re on film almost everywhere we go. Now, I understand if you’re not. But in the old days, when this happened, let’s say on a bus 50 years ago, it wouldn’t be on film. It would be alleged. We would have to get the evidence. We’d have to build the case.
SPEAKER 08 :
You’re right.
SPEAKER 04 :
Nowadays, there’s none of that. This guy, and he flat out said, let’s see here. Yeah, I got that white girl. Yeah, apparently that’s what they’re saying he said. I guess you can hear it. Because you’re even being taped. Right. As you do these things. I got that white girl. I mean, he’s just this was a pure racist.
SPEAKER 08 :
I didn’t get that far today. Did it did it say as to what the motive was? Why did he do that or did he say?
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, obviously, he’s insane and just a murderous person. But I got that white girl would pretty much say, look, look at it. If you reverse it, let’s say he were a white guy and he had slaughtered a beautiful young black woman. Everybody would. What would everybody be saying? Racist, white supremacist. Right. OK, so if you’re going to treat it equally, then, yeah, we’ll say it’s because of race. Do I honestly know what’s going through his head? I don’t care. I want him dead. OK, my question is this. Have we entered into a new age where the death penalty needs to be brought back because we know? And why do we even need a trial? We know. He’s right there. We see him do it. What do I care about his childhood?
SPEAKER 08 :
I’m exactly like you, Andy. I, for a while, was like, okay, is this really the right thing to do? Can people be rejuvenated and rehabilitated and so on? And if we don’t give them that chance, then how does that work? On the same token, I think because we don’t have enough punishment for the crime, people feel free to go do whatever they want to.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, and look what increased punishment and certainty of punishment for crimes has done in D.C. It’s totally changed it. It’s completely changed a city. We are seeing now that certainty and greater punishment for crimes is lowering crimes and saving people’s lives. Far fewer people are dying, being carjacked or whatever. People’s lives have improved. Why? Because we’ve taken out all the left-wing preaching. on gee we just need to rehabilitate everybody we’ve thrown it out the door in dc and now people’s lives are better that’s the bottom line and here okay so my first question is that death penalty could it should it make a comeback because nowadays we could just flat out see you did it and you meant to do it yes is my answer okay number two number two What should we do with the judges? This guy was a multi, multi, multi-time offender. And the most recent one was in January. And he’s a violent man. They knew he was a violent, sinister, and let’s face it, racist weapon, a human weapon. And they put him back on the streets. And this poor girl goes and sits in this subway or bus, okay? And a judge put that behind her. What should happen to these judges who put that kind of a monster… And don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying… look, the judges eventually have to put people back on the streets, but these kinds of guys should never see the light of day again. What should be done with judges who put an obviously deranged, psychopathic guy like this, even his mom said he shouldn’t be out on the streets.
SPEAKER 08 :
Right. But yet judge lets him out.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right. A judge put that behind this girl. Now she’s dead. Why is that judge not being called in and asked, why did you do this?
SPEAKER 08 :
That’s a great question. Great question. So really the question is what kind of accountability should judges have?
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah. That’s the question, right? Okay, how about a hell of a lot more?
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, because right now there isn’t any.
SPEAKER 04 :
There isn’t any. And you’ve got all these Soros judges who have gotten elected all around the country. They’re putting people like this. This is a human killing machine, okay? And they’re putting these kinds of people back out on the streets, these psychopaths, right? Yeah. Now, is he a racist? Yeah, he probably is. But you know what? Do I care? No. He’s a psychopath. He’s a murderer. And you put them out on the street. Because a judge put that on the streets, this woman is dead now. It’s just like when we talk about Joe Biden. Because Joe Biden let in many of these criminal illegals, there are a lot of people who are now dead. Why is Joe Biden out? I understand the politics, why he’ll never be held to account for that. Okay, he was president. But you know what, in my opinion, Joe Biden long ago should have been imprisoned for what he put out on the streets of America. He allowed countries all over the world to empty their jails and send dangerous people to our streets. And people are dead because of it. Dead, maimed, raped, tortured. drug addicted. They have done this. And so I guess what I’m saying is we want to just blame the person who’s the perpetrator, but what about the people who put them there?
SPEAKER 08 :
No, that’s a great segue. We’ve got calls coming in. Let’s do this. Golden Eagle Financial coming up next. Al did a great interview of late. And again, he’s the guy to talk to when you’ve got any kind of a financial thing, I should say, that you want to talk about. Maybe any advice on your portfolio or where to head, how to get to retirement and stay there. Listen to this interview. We’ll come right back after that. This is KLZ Radio or find him at klzradio.com.
SPEAKER 15 :
TJ here with KLZ and Al Smith of Golden Eagle Financial. And Al, I have a question for you. I’ve been putting money away for a while in a savings account or maybe a couple of investment accounts, but what am I doing wrong and what can you do better than that?
SPEAKER 02 :
Well, I think a savings account is important because all the financial gurus, including myself, agree you should have three to six months savings that you have ready liquid access to. But retirement planning is a bit more long-term. and it’s a bit more strategic. We want to take a look at the sum of money you’ll need way into the future, and we want to look at how that money can last by providing you income for as long as you live.
SPEAKER 15 :
What kind of planning or strategy do you provide for folks with that that have a big savings but haven’t made that next step?
SPEAKER 02 :
Well, that’s a good question. If someone has a large amount in savings, one of the things I do is we have a conversation about their risk tolerance. Nobody’s comfortable losing money, but having money in the market over a long period of time is a mechanism to accumulate wealth. And so we talk about the different levels of risk and the different products that are available. And we don’t put everybody into one box, but I have an enormous assortment of financial products. And it’s not that there’s good ones or bad ones. It’s there are some that are more appropriate for some people, but not for others.
SPEAKER 15 :
And that sounds excellent. How can folks get in touch with you for that meeting?
SPEAKER 02 :
You can reach me at 303-744-1128. And if I’m not there, it goes to voicemail, but I return my voicemails promptly. And we could have a conversation in the office. If you live a considerable distance away, we can have a long phone conversation or a Zoom call, whichever you would prefer.
SPEAKER 15 :
And as always, you can find him at klzradio.com slash money. Al, thanks so much for joining us today.
SPEAKER 02 :
Well, thank you, TJ. Thanks for the conversation.
SPEAKER 15 :
You bet.
SPEAKER 11 :
We’ve often wondered, why would anyone who lives in Colorado not have solar? The government pays for most of it, and having solar installed on your home means no power bill. After you get solar, you can buy an electric vehicle and never get your oil changed or stop at a gas station again. Most of the solar tax credits and rebates end in just a few months. If you want to get solar or backup power to your home, you need to get a copy of your power bill to Allen Davis before September 15th to decide for yourself. Call Allen Davis at 303-378-7537. That’s 303-378-7537. Listen online. KLZradio.com. Back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 08 :
All right, we are back. Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560. As I said earlier, I didn’t get every single text message that came in while I was on vacation. I had a few that came in as I got into service and so on. I did get a few that actually trickled in. This is one that I did get that I said, yes, as soon as I get back, I will talk about it. Because somebody wanted to know, why am I not talking more about… The rapture and all the people talking about it occurring on September 23rd. Why don’t I talk about that? And my answer back was, well, I guess I’ll talk to you on the 24th. Because we’ll all still be here, including you and I. And I was nice. I mean, I was joking, but I was nice back. I mean, folks, the reason why I don’t talk about those things is because it’s lunacy. The people that talk about those, it is clickbait, clickbait only. They’re trying to really gin up the crowd, if you would, Andy, at the end of the day. And there’s absolutely zero validity to it at all, period. Yeah.
SPEAKER 04 :
Matthew 25, 13, therefore keep watch because you do not know the day or the hour of my return.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, no. No, Andy. I mean, come on. It’s September 23rd.
SPEAKER 1 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 04 :
My bad. Yeah, okay. Come on, Andy. Get with the program here. No, no, no. That’s okay. Let me just get some white out from my Bible here. Okay. Good. Good. There you go. We got it. Let me blow on the pages.
SPEAKER 08 :
The day and the hour will be September 23rd.
SPEAKER 04 :
Just want this to dry. Okay. All right. I’ve corrected it. I’ve edited my Bible. I’m good now.
SPEAKER 08 :
And again, I appreciate all of you. And this is not by any means making fun of anybody. But, you know, even God sent the whole, you know, we’re in apocalyptic times and the blood moon, which was going to be September 8th, which was either the 7th or the 8th, which, by the way, I looked up in the sky to see if it was actually there. And was that going to be the beginning of the end of times? And I think I missed it. I’m not trying to be rude, but folks, I do make fun of all of the – because I’m somebody that grew up in the church. Charlie can laugh at me. Andy didn’t. But I and Charlie both did. And if I told you how many people over all of the years that I’ve been involved in the church world, and I’ve heard all of the different formulas, and this is when he’s going to come back, and it’s going to be on this day and that day, and you paid me even $100, Andy, for every one of those predictions, I’d be okay today.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, I know. You know, John, as people know, my degree is in the ministry. And Matthew 25, you know what it’s about, the parable of the ten virgins?
SPEAKER 08 :
Correct. Back when you could find ten. Basically stay in tune with what’s going on.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right. Right. You know, keep the oil in your lamp. Be alert is really what it’s trying to say. Be alert, be ready. Why do we not know the day or the time?
SPEAKER 08 :
Because if we did… We wouldn’t have the same outcome at the end of the day, Andy.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, we are sinful people. If we knew the day or the time, what would we do with our lives?
SPEAKER 08 :
We would waste them until that day.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yes, we would.
SPEAKER 08 :
Sorry, that’s why I said we’d have a different outcome.
SPEAKER 04 :
John, how many people cram for finals in school? Everybody. Okay, we would cram. Okay, the… The simple fact is we would change our lifestyles about that. The whole idea is this. You are always supposed to live your life as if he’s coming back tomorrow.
SPEAKER 08 :
That’s right, to be ready.
SPEAKER 04 :
That’s the point.
SPEAKER 08 :
And, again, folks, I by no means am trying to make fun of anybody, any of you that sent that in. But, yes, I was serious about coming back and actually talking about that and answering the question as to why I don’t talk about it more because it’s utter silliness. I’m sorry, folks.
SPEAKER 01 :
Right.
SPEAKER 08 :
But it is utter silliness, and I won’t talk about it unless it’s in this way because it’s just utter nonsense. And anybody that says otherwise is – I’m just going to be straight up honest. Those that are saying otherwise are there for one thing and one thing only. Cash. Right. I’m sorry. That is the reality of it. They are in it for the cash only because there’s a lot of people that are sitting on the edge of their seats and they’re waiting. And if they can get on board with somebody that they think is somewhat credible and they can keep, like I’ve said before, the way you get paid on social media is through likes, views, clicks, and shares. The more somebody gets of that, it’s cash. Right. Yeah. So if you can get a million people plus, Andy, to do what I just said, you’ve made good money on that particular video.
SPEAKER 04 :
John, here’s the question. Why is there a market for it?
SPEAKER 08 :
That’s a good point, Andy.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, because here’s the thing, folks. Why would it matter? When you go to be with God… Great point. It’s eternal.
SPEAKER 08 :
Great point, Andy.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay, like eternal, like it never ends. How long is eternal?
SPEAKER 08 :
Eternal. It’s quite a ways.
SPEAKER 04 :
It’s eternal.
SPEAKER 08 :
Quite a long time, wouldn’t you agree? The Bible says as far as the east is from the west.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right, so why does it… That’s how far you can cast your sin from you.
SPEAKER 08 :
But that’s also the distance of eternity past, eternity forward.
SPEAKER 04 :
Exactly.
SPEAKER 08 :
There is no beginning, there is no end.
SPEAKER 04 :
Exactly. That’s how long it is. That’s how long. Okay, so John… What difference does it make if it happens even at this point in your life or that point or in your life at all? It doesn’t. What difference does it make at all? It doesn’t. So my question is this. Why do people find purpose in trying to know it?
SPEAKER 08 :
I don’t know, Andy.
SPEAKER 04 :
Why does that – how can that be – adding to your purpose in your life. It can’t. It doesn’t change anything you should be doing.
SPEAKER 08 :
No, and I get it. Charlie and I both have been raised around, there’s a lot of genuine people that are looking for that day, for that time. And these are good, solid people. I’m not trying to throw anybody under the bus by any means. And they’re wanting, they’re yearning, they’re excited for the day he comes back. And I get that, Andy. But at the end of the day, you still have to live your life Whether he’s coming and he is coming back, but you’ve got to live your life like you have no idea when he’s coming back and proceed accordingly.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yes. He may come back before the end of the show today. Correct. Okay. Correct. He may come back a thousand years from now. I have no idea.
SPEAKER 08 :
Although I will tell you, and this is the reason why I don’t think it’s September 23rd. I personally believe, and I don’t want to get into a big dissertation. Andy and I could, but we won’t. I could get into a big dissertation about the signs and the things that will have to take place before that event even occurs, and we’re not there yet, folks. So no, it is not September 23rd, because certain things haven’t happened yet to even get us there.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, yeah, and I know the signs that you’re talking about, but what most people talk about are the wrong ones. They talk about wars, rumors of wars. That passage is describing what is always going on. There are always wars and rumors of wars. Correct. Correct. Okay. It’s describing it. They say it says that he will come as a thief in the night. It’ll be as lightning flashing across the sea. Okay. The sky. I’m sorry. Look, there are two things we know about lightning. All right.
SPEAKER 08 :
You have no idea when it’s coming or where it’s going.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right. Yes. Everyone sees it. Well, what I was going to say is everyone sees it and no one sees it coming.
SPEAKER 08 :
Right.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 08 :
It’s instant.
SPEAKER 04 :
Exactly. A thief in the night. Why is that a thief in the night? Because you don’t know a thief is coming. Otherwise, you’re not a very good thief.
SPEAKER 08 :
I’ll give you a good example along the lines of the story you just gave. There was one particular day. You guys all know me. I like to vacation where it’s nice and warm. So I’m in the swimming pool and some clouds start to roll over. And there’s a little thunder. And I don’t know about anybody else, but I don’t like lightning in the pool. At the same time, it doesn’t go real well together, by the way.
SPEAKER 04 :
No, I would say not.
SPEAKER 08 :
It’s a shocking experience. Let’s just say it that way. Yes, yes. So, you know, to your point, though, so a lot of people, not just me, a lot of people are looking up in the sky, looking around. If there’s a hint of lightning, guess what? Everybody’s going to be climbing out, and they’ll tell you even to climb out. So to your point, people are waiting for that lightning, which, by the way, never came, luckily. But they’re waiting for that because you don’t know when or if it’s even coming.
SPEAKER 04 :
One time, and this was several years ago, and I could actually show you pictures on my phone. They’re gorgeous. I got a bunch of pictures of a lightning storm. There was a wacko lightning storm that was out east on the eastern plains of Colorado. And it was happening behind trees. It was so cool. But the lightning was happening so much that you could actually film it and get pictures of it. Got it.
SPEAKER 08 :
Got it.
SPEAKER 04 :
But, you know, that’s incredibly rare. The bottom line is, no, you’re not going to know when he’s coming, and it would be wrong for you to know when he’s coming because if you knew when he was coming, you wouldn’t be getting ready in the way he wants you to be.
SPEAKER 08 :
Great point, Andy. All right, let’s take a break. We’ll come right back. Cub Creek Heat and Air Conditioning Now. There’s a great tune-up special right now when it comes to your furnace.

SPEAKER 06 :
This isn’t rage radio. This is real, relatable radio. Back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 08 :
All right, we are back. Dave, you’re next. Go ahead. We’ve got about two minutes. Go for it, sir.
SPEAKER 12 :
Yeah, about what you guys were talking about earlier with the financial advisor. You know, it was an interesting article I just read. I think this morning or last night, the other problem that they’re having with the trades is that they’re having a problem getting qualified instructors to even teach anybody new.
SPEAKER 08 :
Sure, sure, sure.
SPEAKER 12 :
So there’s the bigger bottleneck is going to be because if you don’t have nobody to teach them, it doesn’t matter how many kids want to go into the trades if there’s nobody there to teach. So hopefully some of those guys who are and women who are deciding to retire, hopefully they’ll turn around and decide to teach. The only problem with that, as far as I can figure, is you get a state of Colorado, and more than likely they’ve got to have years and years and years of certifications, and you’ve got to pay so many fees to get these worthless doctorates or whatever from the state.
SPEAKER 04 :
Dave, really quick, you make an incredible point because the skill, the trade, and teaching are two totally different skills. And there are people who can be great at a job and terrible teachers.
SPEAKER 12 :
Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. And the other thing that you guys were talking about with the murderer on the bus situation out in South Carolina, it is wholly obvious. If you watch the video, he wakes up, he sees her up there, he reaches into his pocket, he opens up his knife, and then he kills her. He murders her. Right. I don’t care about intent. He demonstrated his intent right there.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 12 :
And even if, let’s just say, for instance, he were mentally ill, well, you know what? I would still put him to death because the thing is, if we have a rabid dog that attacks children, We put that dog down.
SPEAKER 07 :
Great point.
SPEAKER 12 :
If we even just have a hungry bear or a hungry mountain lion that kills a person up in the mountains, we put them to death.
SPEAKER 1 :
Good point.
SPEAKER 12 :
This is the same thing. This is the same thing. We can’t continue on with this madness of, well, we’re going to fix them. No, we can’t. The human mind and the human brain is a super hyper complicated mechanism that we do not understand and more than likely we cannot fix. I’ll guarantee you that a majority of the problems that we have, especially when you look at some of the trans shooters that have happened, a lot of them were on psychotropic drugs because they thought that it could be fixed to accept their transgenderism. As a matter of fact, they themselves know that they’re not transgender. They’re just confused, and no amount of drugs was going to fix that.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yep, you’re right on. Dave, as always, appreciate your addition to the show today. We will be back here in a moment. Another full hour coming your way. The first up, somebody asked if we were going to talk about this. Yes, it’s been announced. The Broncos and what they want to do with the stadium and so on. Several of you have asked, are you guys going to talk about that? Yep, top of the hour. We’ll be back. Don’t go anywhere. This is Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560.
SPEAKER 1 :
I’m a rich guy
