HOUR 1 🎬 Faith, Fortune, and Fighting for What’s Right — Andy’s Movie Picks of the Week! This week on Rush to Reason, Andy Pate dives into three powerful stories that span galaxies, oil fields, and war tribunals — each with its own twist of heart, humor, and hard choices. 💥 Predator: Badlands — The hunt is on in a brutal new chapter of the Predator saga.

Andy gives it ⭐⭐⭐⭐ for quality, praising its pace and standout performances — especially Elle Fanning’s
SPEAKER 19 :
This is Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 17 :
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 19 :
With your host, John Rush.
SPEAKER 03 :
My advice to you is to do what your parents did!
SPEAKER 19 :
Get a job, Turk! You haven’t made everybody equal. You’ve made them the same, and there’s a big difference.
SPEAKER 07 :
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 20 :
Are you crazy? Am I? Or am I so sane that you just blew your mind?
SPEAKER 28 :
It’s Rush to Reason with your host, John Rush. Presented by Cub Creek Heating and Air Conditioning.
SPEAKER 15 :
Actually, it’s Andy Pate. Party of choice. And welcome to our number two here on Rush to Reason, KLZ 560. I’m Andy Pate filling in for John Rush, who will be back tomorrow morning for both the shows. And joining me, of course, are Tanner Cole and Luke Cash. Tanner Coleman. Do you have a tan? Tanner Coleman.
SPEAKER 04 :
Tana.
SPEAKER 15 :
Is that your stage name?
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay. Tana.
SPEAKER 04 :
The after hours.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay. Then I, you know, I just didn’t know this about you. Okay. We are doing courtroom movies. Once again, give us a call 303-477-5600. If you have any court scenes that you really enjoyed, and there are some, I’m going to start off with an obvious one because when you’re watching courtrooms and these movies, what, what, what is always the best part? The speech. little monologue action where they or when you see somebody tearing into somebody else and i think one of the most classic ones of all time is whoops i’m having a hard time here great here we go you want answers i think i’m entitled you want answers i want the truth you can’t handle the truth
SPEAKER 22 :
Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who’s gonna do it? You? You, Lieutenant Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Santiago’s death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don’t want the truth because deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Hey! That’s right, Luke.
SPEAKER 15 :
If you don’t like the way I’m running this show, I suggest you just pick up a weapon and stand a post.
SPEAKER 05 :
Start brandishing a firearm in KLZ.
SPEAKER 15 :
Exactly. We’ll lower the rents. Obviously, he was the bad guy, but what a speech.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, he’s so good.
SPEAKER 15 :
He’s so good. There are some speeches where you’re just listening to the bad guy and you’re like, why can’t you be the good guy?
SPEAKER 05 :
Why can’t we be friends? It’s nuanced. He’s the bad guy, but he believes wholeheartedly that he’s in the right.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, and you know what? A lot of what he’s saying is true. I mean, seriously. You know, you don’t want wimps on the front lines facing monsters to protect the rest of us, whether it be cops on the street, the military out in the field. Right. You don’t want people who can’t handle themselves.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, I mean, the scariest thing possible is a transgender army.
SPEAKER 15 :
And we got a trans army.
SPEAKER 04 :
Watch out.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, well, you know, but seriously, Biden was taking the army, the military in a direction where it was not about the mission of being ready to kill people and break things. And honestly, that is what the military has to be there for. It has to be a threat to protect us. It has to be powerful so we have fewer wars. That’s actually the reason. And that works, by the way. And he was building something up that was going to have us threatened from all sides. You can’t have that. So in a way, I actually agree with Nicholson. But not all the way. Not all the way. Okay, Luke, you’re up.
SPEAKER 05 :
Oh, let’s go with… It’s a movie I watched back in my forensics class in high school called Runaway Jury.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 05 :
Which was pretty informative, I thought. It was a very good look at… The sort of nuance and details of jury selection and all of the issues that can kind of come up in that space. I mean, you’re not even looking at like not evidence, not the court itself, but the people who are doing the judging within a courtroom. So there’s a lot of layers to that.
SPEAKER 15 :
You’re right. It was fascinating. It’s on my list, too. And not often do you see that. No. How do we assemble a jury? How do we figure this out? Yeah. Well done, sir. Well done.
SPEAKER 04 :
Pretty good cast, too.
SPEAKER 15 :
Tanner, you’re up. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Give some of the cast.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, Gene Hackman, RIP. John Cusack. Great. I love him. Dustin Hoffman, Rachel Weiss, Wise, Jeremy Piven.
SPEAKER 15 :
That is something else. Pretty good. That’s really good.
SPEAKER 04 :
I kept seeing that movie. I got to watch it.
SPEAKER 15 :
Tanner and I, you got to follow that cast. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 04 :
Let’s go with Lincoln lawyer Matthew McConaughey. Maybe my favorite actor.
SPEAKER 15 :
He’s done a couple movies as a lawyer.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
Boy, he’s good. I just like Matthew McConaughey.
SPEAKER 04 :
How do you not? Yeah. If you’re anti-Matthew McConaughey, you’re un-American.
SPEAKER 15 :
You’re un-American. I’m sorry. I like me some Matthew McConaughey. Even Russians like him. Well, he’s good.
SPEAKER 04 :
The guy has… And he’s good looking.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, the women love him, but he’s smooth as silk. The guys admire him. He’s not so pretty boy as some of these hunks.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right, he’s a little rough and tuggy around the edges.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, he’s not so Thor.
SPEAKER 04 :
But he’s a very good looking guy.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
SPEAKER 04 :
He’s from Texas. How can you not like that?
SPEAKER 15 :
Well, yeah. Well, on the line is another one of these, you know, absolutely everything men that all the women want. That’s Jim. Jim, do you have any courtroom scenes that you like?
SPEAKER 14 :
And former Jag myself, 30 years in the military. But this is not going to be one of those. It’s 12 Angry Men with Lee Jacob.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh!
SPEAKER 14 :
I mean, what did it win, like eight Academy Awards or something? I mean, it set the stage, I think, in terms of what the mold was for all future jury movies. And the whole thing was set in a courtroom, in a real courtroom setting. And all it is is the court and the deliberation room.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, let me ask you this, Jim, as a JAG. Okay, now you’re out front. You’re not in the back with the jury. But did you feel the realism of how they did that, of how they wrestled with each issue?
SPEAKER 14 :
Yes, yes. And that’s – I think it was excellent. And it was also the – because the person that was the suspect – but happened to be of color. Yes. And it was of the day, from the 1950s. Right. It was America, this is like New York, all the prejudices of the jury, and it became 12 subplots of the personality of this person, what they brought, to the deliberation room. And it’s a great movie. When was the last time you heard the movie? I mean, heard 12 Angry Men. I mean, Lee Jacob is a very highly underrated actor. I don’t think he got enough leading parts in his day. He’s like George C. Scott. Tough, rough. I believe he was the jury foreman.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah. You know, I saw the movie, Jim. Jim, I saw the movie and it was great. But getting back to, you know, back then to have the black person who is the victim. I mean, who is the accused, who’s actually innocent and having to defend this person. That was very forward thinking. And it’s kind of it’s become a tired trope now. In almost every courtroom movie, you’ve got an innocent black person now in every courtroom movie. And I don’t say that as somebody who has anything against that. It’s just been done to death. Okay. Back then, it was cutting edge.
SPEAKER 14 :
It was cutting edge. But still, what they did, you know, of course, it was black and white. Right. Even though we had color since The Wizard of Oz. But, you know, it was a… It still had that black and white Perry Mason feel. It did. Absolutely. Absolutely. And I’d recommend anybody to see it just because I believe they made that was the prototype, the archetype that everybody else has based their courtroom dramas on.
SPEAKER 15 :
Excellent, Jim. You knocked it out of the park. Thank you, sir.
SPEAKER 14 :
You bet. Always a great show.
SPEAKER 15 :
Hey, folks. Thanks, Jim. Hey, folks. Once again, 12 Angry Men. I’m telling you what, that one’s worth renting. That one’s worth looking up. It is just really well done. It’s on my list, of course. My list is getting killed here.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
Now, somebody else who’s going to kill my list is John from Cheyenne. John, any courtroom movies? Oh, please.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, yeah, my wife’s here, too, so she gave me two.
SPEAKER 15 :
Well, more importantly, yeah, is what your wife thinks is a good courtroom movie. We’ll listen to yours, too, no offense, but, you know. We want to go right to the top.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, her two favorites, she said My Cousin Vinny. Oh! Yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
No, no, no, no, no, no. You got to let me do a clip, John. You got to let me do a clip of my cousin Vinny. Here you go. And here’s his girlfriend. And the guy and the opposing lawyer wants to see if she’s actually qualified to testify on cars. Here we go.
SPEAKER 20 :
…possible because you don’t know the answer.
SPEAKER 24 :
Nobody could answer that question.
SPEAKER 20 :
Your Honor, I move to disqualify Ms. Vito as an expert witness.
SPEAKER 03 :
Can you answer the question?
SPEAKER 24 :
No. It is a trick question.
SPEAKER 03 :
Why is it a trick question?
SPEAKER 21 :
Watch this.
SPEAKER 24 :
Because Chevy didn’t make a 327 in 55. The 327 didn’t come out until 62. And it wasn’t offered in the Bel Air with a four-barrel carb until 64. However, in 1964, the correct ignition timing would be four degrees before top dead center.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well. Oh. She’s acceptable, you know.
SPEAKER 15 :
I don’t know which one between Tomei and Pesci was better in this movie.
SPEAKER 16 :
They were both so good. Remember, she won the Academy Award for that movie that year.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, yeah. She was amazing. She was so funny.
SPEAKER 16 :
My wife’s other one is The Verdict with Paul Newman.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, yes. That’s a good one.
SPEAKER 16 :
And then I got two. I changed up on one of them. My first one was one of my favorite books in high school and a great movie, and that was To Kill a Mockingbird.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. My list is dying here. It’s dying on the vine. What else you got?
SPEAKER 16 :
And then the other one was triggered when you played that last review, the original Judgment at Nuremberg with Spencer Tracy. Yeah. That had a cast that was just, I know you guys are saying it’s a great cast in the new one, but if you put them up against each other, other than Russell Crowe, there’s no comparison to who was in that.
SPEAKER 15 :
Honestly, it’s great versus great, really, with the cast, but I thought that original story was just a little better done. It was tighter.
SPEAKER 16 :
I liked it a little more. Okay, well, that’s good to know. So…
SPEAKER 15 :
wait for video or streaming yeah okay john thank you so much sir you take care have a good one okay um let’s uh move on do one more round here uh we’ve got to think about the greatest legal acumen we’ve ever seen in our life and that is in the movie liar liar here we go
SPEAKER 09 :
So I could get married.
SPEAKER 19 :
And the truth shall set you free. My client lied about her age. She was only 17 when she got married, which makes her a minor. And in the great state of California, no minor can enter into any legal contract without parental consent, including divorce. Prenuptial agreements! This contract is void. The fact that my client has been ridden more than Seattle slew is irrelevant. Standard community property applies and she is entitled to half of the marital assets or $11.395 million. Jordan fades back, swoosh, and that’s the game! Nothing further.
SPEAKER 15 :
Jim Carrey in his prime. Wow. I mean, was he amazing?
SPEAKER 05 :
A lot of energy on that guy.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, my gosh. I love Jim Carrey in his prime. I couldn’t get enough of him. He was so entertaining. And Liar Liar, I think, might be the funniest thing he ever did front to back. There are two or three that are up there, but it’s one of them. He was amazing.
SPEAKER 05 :
Luke, you’re up. Well, Andy, tis the season. Okay. Tis the season. But it’s not going to be a very good season if Santa is locked up in prison. We can’t have that. You cannot have Santa locked up in prison. So, you know, you’ve got to see what happens in the case for Christmas. Okay. Which is really a hallmark. I think it’s actually a hallmark movie.
SPEAKER 15 :
No, that’s wonderful.
SPEAKER 05 :
Santa is on trial, and he has to prove he’s Santa, I think. Did you watch this or somehow just find it? I watched it when I was very young. I was scrolling through on my parents’ TV, and I found something that had Santa Claus in it. I’m like, cool, Christmas movie.
SPEAKER 15 :
And the funny thing is, that’s not the one everybody thinks about when they think about Santa on trial. It’s a lesser known, and it was charming. Very charming. Okay, Tanner, you’re up.
SPEAKER 04 :
It’s funny that I read 12 Angry Men High School to Kill a Mockingbird. I hadn’t thought about either of those movies until looking up. courtroom stuff but i remember 12 angry men reading the book thinking it was great and then watching the movie and being stunned by how good of a movie it was for the 50s oh it is good um based off of christmas i don’t remember this in the movie but they said in the miracle on 34th street there you are macy’s santa was like going to court or something i i can’t i can’t remember yeah well they you had macy’s santa and the question was was he really santa Okay.
SPEAKER 15 :
It is a classic. If you’ve not seen Miracle on 34th Street, shame on you. Okay? I’m sorry. It’s a classic. It is worth, not shame on you, just rent it.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, have some Christmas cheer this year.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, wait until you get to Christmas or maybe have a little Christmas before then.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, Hanukkah.

SPEAKER 15 :
And welcome back to Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, Andy Pate filling in for John Rush, along with Tanner Cole and Luke Cash. Man. Too much manhood to be cut. I just can’t keep up. No. I just can’t keep up. Sounds like it. Well, yeah. Yeah, I know. I’m losing my place here. Well, yeah. Sorry, I was also bringing up a movie here. I got a good clip, and this is, I’m telling you what, this is before your time, but it’s a great performance. It’s Al Pacino. Mm-hmm. when he was young and in his prime, and it’s called And Justice for All. And here he is explaining why, while we’re supposed to be looking for justice in the courtroom, we don’t always get it.
SPEAKER 09 :
Justice for all. Only we have a problem here. You know what it is? Both sides want to win. We want to win. We want to win regardless of the truth, and we want to win regardless of justice, regardless of who’s guilty or innocent. Winning is everything. That man there wants to win so badly today. It means so much to him. He is so carried away with the prospect of winning, the idea that he forgot something that’s absolutely essential to today’s proceedings. He forgot his case. He forgot to bring it. I don’t know. I don’t see it. Do you? The prosecution’s case. He’s got to have one. Not a witness, not one piece of substantiating evidence other than the testimony of the victim herself. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I have a case to end all cases. I have witnesses for my client. I have character references, testimonials that are backed up from here to Washington, DC.
SPEAKER 15 :
I mean, just the way he delivers it. Pacino in his prime, I don’t know if anybody has ever been better at giving a speech in the movies than Pacino in his prime. There’s a few that are on that level. Don’t get me wrong. Samuel Jackson always jumps to mind. Denzel. Yeah, Denzel. But, wow. Just incredible. What do you think, Luke? Interesting.
SPEAKER 05 :
I’ve never even heard of that one.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, and justice for all, it’s worth it. Okay, Luke, you’re up.
SPEAKER 05 :
Oh, let’s go with the courtroom scene in A Marriage Story. I didn’t see it. Really? It’s Scarlett Johansson and the guy who plays Kylo Ren in the new Star Wars.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, Adam Driver.
SPEAKER 05 :
Adam Driver. Incredibly emotionally poignant movie.
SPEAKER 15 :
By the way, it’s really sad that I know the name of an actor in the new Star Wars movies. I want to apologize to all of Colorado for that. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 05 :
As you should. But it’s about their marriage as it kind of falls apart and how ugly like a divorce can get, how it can go from, hey, we just want to split up, but we’re still fine to a battle in the courtroom. And it’s like it’s a very authentic story.
SPEAKER 04 :
sort of viewing of that one super like emotionally charged really heavy stuff but great okay i’ll bet there’s some great acting too i love adam driver and scarlett johansson is really good too so all right tanner you’re up i’m gonna have to break a rule here but i said lincoln lawyer with mcconaughey the lincoln lawyer series on netflix just is coming out of their fourth season so they’re doing well i love it it’s one of my favorite shows i’ve watched that wasn’t you know, the office or something made by big.
SPEAKER 15 :
But why are you cheating? Richard isn’t here. I didn’t expect any cheating.
SPEAKER 04 :
Someone has to cheat.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, my gosh.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, I’m going to do it next as well. Yeah, if you ain’t cheating, you ain’t trying.
SPEAKER 15 :
My head is buried in my hands. I am sobbing right now. Okay, I need somebody to rescue this. I think Tom from Larkspur can do that. Tom, do you have any courtroom movies?
SPEAKER 18 :
I got a great one. 1985, Peter Coyote, Glenn Close, Jeff Bridges, Jagged Edge.
SPEAKER 19 :
Yes.
SPEAKER 18 :
Yes, and in the judge’s chamber when Peter Coyote turns to Glenn Close and says, he is a monster, he is an ice man. Referring to Jeff Bridges being a criminal for real. And one of the great catches in that entire movie, he turned out to be the bad guy at the end of that.
SPEAKER 15 :
Tom, there was some serious acting going on in that movie. I’ve seen it. And it was good. It was impressive. And it kept you on the edge of your seat. I loved it.
SPEAKER 18 :
Yeah, great movie. Thanks, guys.
SPEAKER 15 :
Well done, Tom. Well done. That’s a good one, guys. I wish you could see that. I’m going to play a clip from another movie, and this is from the trailer for this movie. This is before your time, but trust me, it is worth seeing. It is excellent, and it had Richard Gere in it, and it’s just wonderful. Primal Fear. Here we go.
SPEAKER 08 :
I speak. You do not speak. Your job is just to sit there and look innocent. Well, I am innocent. That’s it. That’s exactly how I want you to look. Can you remember that? Look in the mirror if you have to. I saw the tape. I know what he did to you.
SPEAKER 01 :
Do you know what I would do if someone did that to me? I would stab him 78 times.
SPEAKER 07 :
It’s a mistake to stick your thumb in the eyes of the most powerful people in this city. You’re worse than the thugs you represent.
SPEAKER 08 :
Objection, your honor. Next thing you know, he’ll be objecting if we want to bring in the murder weapon. Well, now the chief brings it out. You’re on dangerous ground here.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, if I have a favorite actor of all time, it’s probably Edward Norton.
SPEAKER 04 :
He’s so good. Even if he’s the bad guy, it’s hard not to like him in the movie. Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
Good, bad, don’t matter. Edward Norton is awesome. And in Primal Fear, he was very young in that movie, and he put in this lights-out performance. I had never heard of this guy. Mm-hmm. And it was absolutely off the charts. Blew my mind. He was wonderful. Luke, have you seen Primal Fear? Nope. It’s worth it. I have not. Trust me. This one’s worth it.
SPEAKER 04 :
I love those trailers from the 90s, 2000s. Yeah. They’re so funny. On Paramount, there’s a ton of those movies. And you can just watch the trailer. And that guy’s voice, whoever that is, does almost every movie. Yeah, I think he does. Every trailer is him.
SPEAKER 15 :
And he usually starts them off in a time.
SPEAKER 05 :
Classic.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, Luke, you’re up.
SPEAKER 05 :
Oh, well, I’m going to break a rule. I’m going to cheat a little bit.
SPEAKER 15 :
You’re going to cheat again? What is with you guys cheating all the time?
SPEAKER 05 :
Well, if they weren’t, you know, maybe more movies should have better courtroom scenes.
SPEAKER 15 :
I’m going to tell your girlfriends.
SPEAKER 1 :
Okay. Oh, no.
SPEAKER 05 :
I was going to say, the courtroom scenes, of which there are a decent amount. Yes. Specifically the trial of Frank Castle In the Daredevil Show I think it’s on Disney Plus now Previously Netflix But all of those scenes Of Matt Murdock Doing case work and trial work Inside that series Is fantastic
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, and who was his partner before the guy got killed?
SPEAKER 05 :
Foggy Nelson.
SPEAKER 15 :
He had some good scenes, too, in the courtroom.
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah, I thought they did excellent. I mean, they’re very compelling courtroom scenes where they don’t drag. I mean, you’re on the edge of your seat because there’s so much stuff going on.
SPEAKER 15 :
And you totally wouldn’t expect that from Daredevil, right? Which is this Marvel Comics character. And yet the courtroom scenes from that show. Now, in the later parts of the first time it was out, because it’s reborn now, but it got boring.
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah, but the older stuff, the original stuff.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, good.
SPEAKER 05 :
I mean, like very competent legal work, too. And they made it super exciting.
SPEAKER 15 :
It was a lot of fun. Well done, sir. Well done.
SPEAKER 05 :
That is a great name. Even though you’re totally cheating.
SPEAKER 15 :
Foggy Nelson and Matthew Murdoch. Because it’s a TV show. I’m sorry. Okay, Tanner, you’re up.
SPEAKER 04 :
Let’s go with The Silence of the Lambs. Yes. Love that. I mean, anything with Anthony Hopkins is right up my alley.
SPEAKER 15 :
He was amazing. So was she. I mean, they were Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins, squaring off. And, you know, I just saw Nuremberg, and they were trying to get kind of a feel like that. I’ve got to tell you. No. And I’m not coming down on them. I thought they did a fine job. But it was nothing like what you saw in Silence of the Lambs. That level of acting was just stunning. Yeah. All right. Well, when we come back, we’re going to be doing more courtroom movies once again. If you’ve got an idea, give us a call. 303-477-5600. We’d love to hear your courtroom scene that you like. Up next, Flesh Law, Corey and I. Speaking of law, courtrooms, right? We didn’t even have to go to court. Why? Because we hired Kevin Flesch. We won with ease. Kevin’s team carried us through the entire process. F-L-E-S-C-H. That’s call Kevin Flesch at 303-806-8886.
SPEAKER 26 :
Here’s why you need personal injury attorney Kevin Flesch on your side. He understands the way the jury thinks. In the context of a personal injury case, you’ve been hurt by someone else’s negligence. The idea is that you’re going to try to recover so that you can get back to where you were just prior to that incident occurring. What that really means from a jurist’s perspective is that you’re going to be asking them to award you money. So when we talk about fairness, we’re talking about six people that you don’t know. Those six people view the evidence and make a unanimous decision that will decide what the fair value is. When you’re the one who’s hurt, you have a good idea of what you think it’s worth. The question is, can you persuade those other individuals whom you don’t know and were witnesses to believe that’s what the case is worth? Kevin Flesch understands the way the jury thinks. Call now for a free consultation. 303-806-8886.
SPEAKER 06 :
This is TJ with KLZ Radio, and I’ve got Al Smith back with us from Golden Eagle Financial. How are you, Al? I’m doing great, TJ. How are you? I’m doing well. I was just curious, how much of the business that you do with your clients relates to taxes and helping them with tax liability? Well,
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, it’s a pretty important component. I don’t sit down and actually prepare people’s tax returns, but we do spend a lot of time talking about people’s income in retirement. And with income, it’s not necessarily how much do you earn, but it’s how much do you get to keep. So taxation becomes extremely important because in order to plan the income you’re going to need in retirement, a component of that has to be what is the net amount that you’ll be needing in retirement.
SPEAKER 06 :
And what do those conversations sound like when you start talking about taxes? Is that more for somebody later in life or earlier on? How does that work?
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, tax planning toward retirement is probably even more important as people approach retirement than it is in retirement. If someone is 80 years old, there might be a few things we can do to improve their tax circumstances. But if someone is 59, there are probably a lot more things that we can do to improve their ultimate taxation of retirement because they have a little bit of a window to prepare. And part of that preparation might be conversion of traditional IRAs to Roth or conversion of 401k to Roth or making choices while people are working to contribute to a Roth 401k rather than the traditional one.
SPEAKER 06 :
Al, how can people get in touch with you if they need to get on your schedule for a meeting?
SPEAKER 23 :
A couple different ways. My office is 303-744-1128. You can also reach me on my cell, which is 303-875-4572.
SPEAKER 06 :
Very good. And as always, you can also reach him at klzradio.com slash money. Al, thanks for joining us today.
SPEAKER 23 :
Well, thank you, TJ. Have a great day.
SPEAKER 15 :
Live and local, back to Rush to Reason. And welcome back to Rush to Reason. Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, Andy Pate filling in for John Rush along with Luke Cash and Tanner Cole. Okay, guys, we’re going to go back to a pretty silly movie, but it’s actually a very funny one. This is early Steve Martin. And in this movie, he’s a lawyer. And unfortunately, Lily Tomlin is inside his body with him. Through a weird spiritual thing that happened. It’s funny. It’s called All of Me. Folks, I’m telling you, if you’ve not seen All of Me, it’s good, stupid fun. It is totally worth seeing. At this point, he is in a trial, and he’s trying to win, but she is providing a conscience in his body. Here he is talking to the judge. Here we go.
SPEAKER 20 :
and I will not be a party to unfairness. We are in a court of law. Fairness has nothing to do with it. That will cost you $500, contempt of court. Good for you, Judge.
SPEAKER 1 :
$1,000.
SPEAKER 20 :
Will you shut up? No, you shut up.
SPEAKER 1 :
$1,500.
SPEAKER 20 :
Not you, her eye. I got someone inside me. Well, then both of you shut up. Don’t tell me to shut up, Charles. I contributed to your campaign. $2,000 and better throw this jackass out of my court. I’m going to the state by…
SPEAKER 15 :
It was so funny. At one point when she is first inside him and she controls half his body and he controls the other and he’s trying to walk on the street. It is hilarious. Early Steve Martin, all of me. Folks, if you want to rent a movie and just have some fun, please rent all of me. Okay. You are up, Luke.
SPEAKER 05 :
Oh, we’ll do this one for Charlie Grimes. He asked, I was going to do it next anyway. Legally Blonde.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, yeah. I don’t have a clip because I’ve played too much Legally Blonde clips recently.
SPEAKER 04 :
Too much, huh?
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, she was a lot of fun. My wife loves that movie. So there you go. Tanner, you’re up.
SPEAKER 04 :
Let’s go with a great film, The Untouchables.
SPEAKER 15 :
The Untouchables.
SPEAKER 04 :
Not a lot of court, but at the end. Oh, yeah. Total classic.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, what we’re going to do here is Scent of a Woman. Here we go.
SPEAKER 10 :
Makers are men. Creators are leaders. Be careful what kind of leaders you’re producing here. I don’t know if Charlie’s silence here today is right or wrong. I’m not a judge or jury. But I can tell you this. He won’t sell anybody out to buy his future. And that, my friends, is called integrity. That’s called courage. Now that’s the stuff leaders should be made of.
SPEAKER 15 :
Pacino again. I mean, when he’s older in life and he’s blind in this movie. And he was wonderful. Scent of a Woman is very impressive. Luke, you’re up.
SPEAKER 05 :
It’s me already?
SPEAKER 15 :
It’s you already. Go, man.
SPEAKER 05 :
Well, we’ll do another. I mean, it’s kind of cheating a little bit. Also, this one is for you, Charlie Grimes. Judge Dredd.
SPEAKER 28 :
Judge Shred.
SPEAKER 05 :
I am the law. He is the judge, jury, and executioner. If that’s not a whole court in a single man-shaped package, I don’t know what is.
SPEAKER 15 :
It totally is. And, you know, they made two of them. I like the first one with Stallone.
SPEAKER 05 :
I guess you’re right, huh? There was one with Stallone. I only remember the one with the later one. So much slow-mo.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, yeah, that was the only thing, and that’s why I like the first one more is there wasn’t so much slow-mo in it. But it was good. I enjoyed it. Judge Dredd, well done, sir. Okay, Tanner, you’re up.
SPEAKER 04 :
We’ll go with Andy’s favorite movie, Joker, Foyer, Adieu, whatever it’s called.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, Joker.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yuck.
SPEAKER 15 :
Foyer, Adieu.
SPEAKER 04 :
Si.
SPEAKER 15 :
That was horrible. You even know how to pronounce it. That movie was so boring. Now, wait a minute. Did you actually like Joker, too?
SPEAKER 04 :
I still haven’t seen it because you told me it was so bad. Plus, I don’t like musicals, so…
SPEAKER 15 :
Joker 2 is awful, folks. I’m steering you away from that. Do not, because, you know, you might be thinking, you know what, Joker, I love the character. The first one was pretty good. And you might be tempted. You might be tempted to rent it some night. I am saving you from this.
SPEAKER 05 :
Don’t do it.
SPEAKER 15 :
Don’t do it. You are going to be bored out of your mind. And so are the critics, by the way. I’m not alone in this. The critics hated this movie. It absolutely bombed. It lost more money than many countries. Okay? It was so bad.
SPEAKER 05 :
No good, huh?
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah. Thank you for bringing that up, Tanner. Of course. Thank you for bringing up that painful moment in my life.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’m here for you any time you need.
SPEAKER 15 :
I mean, I had blocked it out, but now it all came rushing back. Tell you what, let’s take one more break. When we come back, we’re going to go rapid fire with courtroom movies. You ready? We’ll try our best. All right, up next is Michael Bailey Law. Hey, law, right? Law. All right, your assets, they keep changing, as do the needs of those you love. So get your will done, get it up to date with Michael Bailey at 720-730-7274, or you can find him at klzradio.com.
SPEAKER 06 :
You’ll be so thankful that the mobile estate planner, Michael Bailey, keeps you awake long enough to actually finish your estate plan. That’s because he makes wills, trusts, and powers of attorney almost fun. Yeah, we said almost. Because let’s be honest, talking about what happens after you die is not on your bucket list. But Michael’s sense of humor somehow makes it easier. He’s like that friend who makes an IRS audit sound like it was just no big deal. And most clients leave relieved. And while the DIY guys online make you fill out forms until you go crazy and start googling, what happens when I die without an estate plan? We’ll see you next time.

SPEAKER 15 :
Now, back to Rush to Reason. And welcome back to Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, Andy Pate filling in for John Rush, along with Tanner Cole and Luke Cash. Okay, guys, you have never heard of this movie. It predates you, I guarantee you. However, it is surprisingly funny. It stars Albert Brooks and Meryl Streep, and it’s called Defending Your Life. Okay, it’s this new age movie. where you go, you die, right? And you go into a place where they test your life to see if you can move on. It’s all about reincarnation. It actually kind of makes fun of it. And I enjoy it. Here he is having to be talked down to by his own lawyer about his brain. Here we are.
SPEAKER 11 :
Much of your brain is possible. For example, I use 48% of my brain. Do you know how much you use? 47%. Three. I’m sorry? Three. I use three percent of my brain? Yes, don’t worry about it. Everybody on Earth uses three percent of their brain. Three to five percent. That’s why they’re there. Three? Three percent? Three percent? You mean nobody on Earth uses more than that? When you use more than five percent of your brain, you don’t want to be on Earth, believe me. Well, not that your takeout places aren’t lovely, but there are many more exciting destinations for smarter people. Now, being from Earth as you are and using as little of your brain as you do, your life has pretty much been devoted to dealing with fear. It has? Well, everybody on Earth deals with fear. That’s what little brains do. What are little brains? That’s what we call you folks behind your back.
SPEAKER 15 :
It’s just awful. And that’s his lawyer, of course. Defending Your Life, folks, it’s a romance. It’s a romantic comedy, but it’s also very funny. It’s a really good movie. Defending Your Life is worth watching. I give it four stars. Okay, Luke, you’re up.
SPEAKER 05 :
Let’s go with, it’s less of a formal courtroom, but the security clearance hearing for Oppenheimer in Oppenheimer. Oh, yeah. Very, like, adjacent. It’s private, again, not like a formal court of law, but similar setup, similar cross-examination and, like, really digging into the evidence of a person’s life.
SPEAKER 15 :
Right, and it’s also an actual movie, so I’m proud of you.
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah, well, I did it. Way to go, Luke. I mean, that’s incredible. I’m so proud of myself.
SPEAKER 15 :
You guys are really, you know, watching you two grow up makes me feel so proud, just so you know.
SPEAKER 04 :
Thanks, Dad.
SPEAKER 15 :
Tanner, you’re up.
SPEAKER 04 :
Extremely wicked, shockingly evil and vile. Zac Efron as Ted Bundy. Yeah, that would do it. Great scene in there where he’s like, they have him on trial and then he goes and like sits in a judge’s office and somehow like jumps out of the window and escapes. I think that actually happened.
SPEAKER 15 :
Another terrific actor, by the way.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
I like Zac Efron.
SPEAKER 04 :
He’s one of those guys you put him in as Ted Bundy. I still love him.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER 04 :
Hard not to.
SPEAKER 15 :
Because he can do it. Okay, here’s a quickie. This is Rooster Cogburn in True Grit.
SPEAKER 03 :
You sprang from cover with your revolver in hand. I did. Loaded and cocked. Well, if it ain’t loaded and cocked, it don’t shoot. And like his son, Aaron Wharton advanced against an armed man. Well, he was armed. He had an x-ray. I believe you testified you backed away from Aaron Wharton. That’s right. Which direction were you going? I always go backwards when I’m backing up. Very amusing.
SPEAKER 15 :
That was actually the newer version of True Grit. It was a good movie. Did you guys see it?
SPEAKER 04 :
I loved it. I was a kid when I saw it. I loved it.
SPEAKER 15 :
Now, I will say I think the first one’s a little better, and that is John Wayne. It’s a little fresher, but I thought this was really good. I enjoyed True Grit. Okay, we’re going to go rapid fire. Luke, go.
SPEAKER 05 :
All right. We’re in the category of movies that I haven’t seen. That’s right. Let’s go with Anatomy of a Murder, 1959. Old movie. Jimmy Stewart. That’s basically the dinosaur age. I’m shocked you know any names involved in that filming.
SPEAKER 15 :
Dude, I am almost collapsing into becoming oil. Wow. I am so old.
SPEAKER 05 :
Well, thank you for standing upright enough to be here.
SPEAKER 15 :
I will be fueling your cars any moment now, just so you know. I am there. But no, Jimmy Stewart is one of the greatest actors of all time, and man, did he have a personality. He was wonderful, and he was great in that movie. Go, Tanner!
SPEAKER 04 :
The Trial of the Chicago 7. Oh! Haven’t seen it, but…
SPEAKER 15 :
Nicely done. Nicely done. Okay. Intolerable cruelty. Trust me. It’s fun.
SPEAKER 05 :
Go, Luke. Judgment at Nuremberg. And hopefully this one’s better than the new one that just came out.
SPEAKER 15 :
It is a little better. It’s just a little fresher. Go, Tanner.
SPEAKER 04 :
The judge, Robert Downey Jr.
SPEAKER 15 :
My gosh, you took it. I was about to do it. How about right at the beginning of Con Air when he is in court and he is sentenced to seven years? Remember that one?
SPEAKER 04 :
I don’t know if I’ve seen that.
SPEAKER 15 :
You haven’t seen Con Air? Dude.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’m a con man.
SPEAKER 15 :
Con Air is the guys, guys, guys, guys movie.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, if you’ve got Nicolas Cage and John Cusack, John Malkovich, Steve Buscemi, you have to. Exactly. Danny Trejo.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, Danny Trejo is wonderful. Everybody’s great. You’ve got to see Con Air. Go, Luke.
SPEAKER 05 :
Let’s go with Anatomy of a Fall.
SPEAKER 15 :
Well done. Well done. Good one.
SPEAKER 04 :
Go. The Firm, Tom Cruise.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, man, you’re killing me here. How about The Rainmaker? Did you ever see that one? I’ve heard of that one. Trust me, it’s good. Okay, go. Just Mercy. Luke, good job. Good job. Okay, Tanner, go.
SPEAKER 04 :
The People vs. Larry Flint.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, now that’s with Woody Harrelson. Yeah, and you know who Larry Flint was? I know the name. Hustler Magazine. Oh, right. Yeah, we had this in the theater when I was actually working there. And Hustler Magazine, he was obviously campaigning for free speech. in the courtroom. But in real life, he was just the sleaziest, most worthless guy. And so here you have this completely sleazy jerk of a person, and he’s the hero fighting for free speech. I don’t know. I thought it was pretty funny. Okay, I’m going to go with a comedy that if you haven’t seen this one, you need to. It’s called A Fish Called Wanda.
SPEAKER 05 :
Whoa, what a title. Yes. What a name.
SPEAKER 15 :
I know, and it’s really good. John Cleese is in it. Oh, goodness. Kevin Kline. Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Kline. Kevin Kline was hysterical in the movie. A Fish Called Wanda, if you haven’t seen it, that’s a four, maybe even a four and a half star movie.
SPEAKER 05 :
Really?
SPEAKER 15 :
It’s up there. It’s up there. It’s worth watching. Okay, Luke, go.
SPEAKER 05 :
This one came up a lot on a few different lists, so I hope it’s good. A Time to Kill.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, yes. Yes, that was very good.
SPEAKER 05 :
I will trust your word on that.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 04 :
Tanner. High crimes. Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd, Jim, I’m never going to get his name right, Cavaziel.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, Cavaziel. And, by the way, they all did a fine job in that. Morgan Freeman, I mean, he’s kind of a sure thing for me. He’s a go-to.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, him, Samuel, Denzel, McConaughey, it’s hard.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, but she was great, too. Okay, here’s a different one. I am Sam. And it stars Sean Penn and Michelle Pfeiffer. And he’s a mentally challenged person, disabled, who wants to keep his child. And he has to prove that he can raise her. And, folks, Sean Penn puts in a lights-out performance. It’s really good.
SPEAKER 05 :
Okay, Luke, go. We haven’t had Reversal of Fortune yet, have we?
SPEAKER 15 :
No, we have not.
SPEAKER 05 :
Well, there we go.
SPEAKER 15 :
But now we have.
SPEAKER 04 :
All right.
SPEAKER 15 :
Go ahead, Tanner.
SPEAKER 04 :
Aaron Brockovich, Julia Roberts, pretty good.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, and my wife always wants me to remind everyone that she lost the case in real life to the oil company. Right. Because they were right and she was wrong. And my wife dances on that grave. Okay, let’s see here. Julia Roberts was also in a movie with Denzel called The Pelican Brief.
SPEAKER 04 :
I didn’t even think about that.
SPEAKER 15 :
It’s pretty good.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
It’s really pretty good, okay, because it’s got Denzel. All right. You know, I just can’t get through a week without some Denzel. Yeah.
SPEAKER 05 :
Gotta have a little Denzel.
SPEAKER 15 :
I gotta have a little Denzel. I am always hooked on Denzel. It’s a bad thing. Have you heard Hooked on Phonics? Yes. Well, I’m hooked on Denzel. Hooked on Denzel. Where you actually start talking like him. It’s great. My wife loves me more then.
SPEAKER 05 :
Okay, Luke, go. All right. I only got two left. Snow Falling on Cedars, 1999.
SPEAKER 15 :
I don’t know that movie.
SPEAKER 05 :
Neither do I. But it was in this list.
SPEAKER 15 :
Folks, you’ve got to watch Snow Falling on Cedars. Luke and I highly recommend it.
SPEAKER 04 :
We do. Tanner. Tanner, go. $1,000 next show. The juror, Demi Moore and Alec Baldwin.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yep. It’s actually quite good. Let’s just say she puts him in a bad position. Okay. I’m going to go with Adam’s Rib. Trust me, it’s got really good acting. Okay, go ahead, Luke. My last one. All right.
SPEAKER 05 :
Find Me Guilty, 2006. Oh!
SPEAKER 15 :
It’s on my list.
SPEAKER 05 :
There we go.
SPEAKER 15 :
Killing my list here. Go ahead, sir. Let’s see how well Tanner can survive. Let’s see how well you do.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’ll beat Andy. In Cold Blood from 1967.
SPEAKER 15 :
That is not on my list. I have not seen this movie.
SPEAKER 04 :
Boom shakalaka. Wow.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay. Has anybody said Witness for the prosecution? I don’t believe so. No, but it’s the first time hearing it. It’s good. Believe me. Okay, go ahead, Tanner.
SPEAKER 04 :
Let’s go with Witness, Harrison Ford.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, I love Harrison Ford.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yep, another classic actor.
SPEAKER 15 :
Absolutely. In fact, let’s stick with him, presumed innocent, Harrison Ford. Go ahead, Tanner.
SPEAKER 04 :
Night Falls on Manhattan, Andy Garcia. I love him.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, he’s great. But you know what? I’m hooked on Harrison Ford, so I’ve got to go The Fugitive.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, you’re right.
SPEAKER 15 :
It’s a courtroom scene, right?
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
That’s why he has to go on the run. Have you seen The Fugitive, Luke? No, I have not. You and the missus are going to see The Fugitive.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
You have homework. It’s worth seeing.
SPEAKER 04 :
He’s got a couple of those 80s, 90s that not a lot of people know about unless you were alive then, but they were great.
SPEAKER 15 :
The Fugitive and Tommy Lee Jones is in it, too. Basically a four and a half star, in my opinion. Yeah. But I haven’t seen it in a while. Maybe it isn’t. Go ahead, Tanner. Go.
SPEAKER 04 :
Rapid fire. Michael Clayton, George Clooney.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, nicely done. Let’s see here. Chicago actually had courtroom.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay, go. Find me guilty, Vin Diesel, which I can’t take seriously.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, great performance coming up from Kevin Bacon. I wanted him to get best actor over Tom Hanks in, well, my gosh, I’m suddenly spacing it. Come on, the movie two and a half hours long. He’s mentally ill. Mama always says… Oh, Forrest Gump. Forrest Gump. Why am I facing Forrest Gump? Okay, it’s because I’m thinking of Kevin Bacon in Murder in the First. Fantastic.
SPEAKER 04 :
Go. I think I can say this on air. A Case of Rape is from 1974 about, I’m pretty sure, Cheryl Rujo.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 04 :
There was also a TV show or TV season. I don’t know how to describe it. Trial by Media, which was very good on Netflix. Same story.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay. Another tragic and classic divorce movie, Kramer vs. Kramer with Dustin Hoffman and Meryl Streep. And they were both fantastic.
SPEAKER 04 :
She’s in a couple of these court movies. Yeah. The Devil’s Advocate, Keanu Reeves.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, yes. Yes. That was good, actually. And he’s actually the devil’s advocate. Yes. Pretty cool. Okay. How about Presumed Innocent? Did we do that one yet?
SPEAKER 04 :
I don’t think so. I’m not sure.
SPEAKER 15 :
Put it in anyway.
SPEAKER 04 :
Okay. You’re up. I haven’t seen this one. Marshall Chadwick Boseman? Don’t know it. Me neither.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay. Ghosts of Mississippi. That one I do know. Have you seen that one?
SPEAKER 04 :
No. Is it good?
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah. It’s pretty good. A little slow. I’m going to be honest. A little slow. But well done.
SPEAKER 04 :
Go ahead. TV show Judge Judy.
SPEAKER 1 :
Judge Judy.
SPEAKER 04 :
One of my girlfriends went to service Halloween.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, that’s classic. That is so good. That’s great. But I’m going to go with John Travolta in A Civil Action.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’m pretty sure Goodfellas has a court scene. If I’m wrong, I can switch it.
SPEAKER 15 :
No, leave it in there. I can’t remember, though. Beyond A Reasonable Doubt.
SPEAKER 04 :
Ooh, another TV show, Matlock.
SPEAKER 15 :
Matlock. My mom watched every Matlock. Never missed it. Never missed it. Okay, Disclosure with Michael Douglas and Demi Moore. Did we do that one? I thought we did.
SPEAKER 04 :
I think so, yeah.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, let’s go on to Suspect. And that had Cher, Dennis Quaid, and Liam Neeson. Cher.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah. Cher’s a great actor. I’m kind of surprised you didn’t bring it up nowhere, any of our callers, since it’s an older movie, but The Crucible.
SPEAKER 15 :
I did not. I totally failed.
SPEAKER 04 :
Pretty good poll.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, you know what? There was a court scene at the beginning of The Mighty Ducks. And that’s how he gets sentenced to coach the team. Go, Tanner.
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, this is going to be a stretch, but in The Dark Knight Rises, Cillian Murphy as Scarecrow holds a court scene.
SPEAKER 15 :
Oh, he’s wonderful. I love him. Well done. I’m going to go with Paul Newman and Sally Field in Absence of Malice.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’m pretty sure it was called Night Stalker, the show about the guy in L.A. killing everyone.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yep, it was. The Client with Susan Sarandon, Tommy Lee Jones. Go.
SPEAKER 04 :
Maybe the newest one, Adept vs. Herd on Netflix.
SPEAKER 15 :
That’s actually the best one today. Sleepers with Brad Pitt, Kevin Bacon, De Niro, Hoffman. Go.
SPEAKER 04 :
Great TV show, Law & Order.
SPEAKER 15 :
Okay, and I’m going to finish up with a classic, The Man Who Knew Too Much, once again with the great Jimmy Stewart.
SPEAKER 05 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 15 :
Gentlemen, you’ve done a wonderful job. Way to go. Those were courtroom movies. Folks, that is it for today. Hour 1 replays next. Hour 2 is at 6. John Rush is on the air tomorrow morning. You’ll want to hear him and hear all about his trip. Until then, drive safe, God bless, and thanks for joining us at Rush to Reason, KLZ 560.
SPEAKER 1 :
I’m a rich guy.
No Kings, No Clue: Protest Logic Falls Apart
