and a man who shows photos of naked women to people at work. Yes, but do I think that he would have paid for sex? Yeah, definitely. But do I think that he's the kind of guy who would take ecstasy and have sex with an underage girl? Also yes. So really, there's only one question left for Gates. Does he deny all of the charges, or does he admit to everything and just become king of Florida?

Oh, that is so wrong. This didn't know that story kind of went away. Kind of the fun went out of that story because I think most of America looked at him and thought, yeah, yeah, he seems like a guy would do that. But here's kind of the the wonder of did he or did me didn't didn't last long with that story. I don't think. But here's your moral. The moral of the story kids because there is a twist to the story of serious twist. The moral of the story is when we're going to see the story.

And then the story is when you start doing bad stuff and hanging out with bad people your life gets complicated very quickly. One of the guys Matt Gates said was extorting him has come forward to say, yeah, yeah, we asked his dad for cash. That all is true. It wasn't a shake down. The last thing it was was a shake down.

And if you don't want to provide us with millions of dollars to free Robert Levinson, the former FBI agent who disappeared in Iran. If you don't want to give us that money, you'll never hear from me again. Well, part is friends. But all of that stuff happened.

That $25 million was it a shake down. Was it not this guy Bob Kent met with old man Gates and asked for the money.

Now that doesn't really oh, and they did somehow know that there was an investigation into Matt Gates for the sleep around with hookers and underaged girls. So man would have tangled web.

So a couple of things will get to this hour. The the showvin trial continues to go on. He's in big trouble and should be as all of his bosses and superiors have now taken the stand and said nothing that he did there was what we're trained to do.

That was all kinds of wrong and bad. Yeah. And while it's important to to reserve judgment until you hear the defenses case, I'm sitting here. I can't even imagine what the defenses cases going to be.

You got the chief you got the chief training officer saying no, excuse me that absolutely not justified by our training. And in fact it goes against everything we stand for. Hello.

Also Baylor won the NCAA championship for men's basketball last night. Did you get a chance to watch any of that or were you feeling too junk? I didn't watch any of I haven't seen a second of basketball.

And I wish I would have I missed out on several great games. Baylor leapt out to I think it was a nine to nothing lead and never looked back. It was never close.

The Gonzaga got it within 10 and a half time and I thought all right here we go. This is it's a movie. It's a movie. The hero is down, but he's not out now.

The final act and the final act was they never got close. I wish I'd have watched several of the games that I read about, but the NCAA women's championship game was mc by our own Jamie coffee who used to be our

first person. No kid. And she was the voice for the championship game for when's the NCAA the PA. Yeah, addressing us are yeah. Good for Jamie.

Very cool. That's awesome. Oh, I was going to mention Charles Barkley had some things to say about the state of American and politics and whatnot around that. So we'll get that later this hour. I was wanting to talk about Clarence Thomas and him getting involved in the Supreme Court getting involved in social media, but talking about Matt gates reminded me of something else. So do that.

So Matt gates, Congressman Florida, pomp a door pretty well known because he, he and he wrote about this in his book, who knew he had a book that if you're not getting on TV, you're not governing. And so there's been a bit of a conversation going on among a punditry for a while now about what does this mean.

And this idea that these AOCs the same sort of thing exactly the same sort of thing, these young Congress people that comment that see their job as getting on TV, getting on social media, stirring it up, being well known and being rock stars around certain issues, having no time to spend or or caring about actual legislation, which is what they are. They're legislator's.

And I had been thinking that clearly the right side of the argument is these are legislators. They're not supposed to be pundits and the, you know, eventually that'll go away. Well, so John Boehner, former speaker of the house orange drinks wine and smokes. Do you remember him?

Take it a nap. Yeah, that's our favorite John Boehner clip. Take him a nap. Take it a nap. And where was where was he? Take it a nap. Take him a nap. Anyway, he's got a book out and he's blasting people left and right. But he hears one segment of the book that I thought was fascinating. And the last sentence is the clincher. Oh, yeah, here we go.
