Hey, pull up a chair.

It's Hacks on Tap with David Axelrot and Mike Murphy.

I said, you know, my father always used to tell me he had a wonderful father very smart and he used to say

son when you walk into a restaurant and you see a dirty front door don't go in because if the

front door is dirty the kitchen's dirty also. Same thing with the capital.

If our capital's dirty, our whole country is dirty and they don't respect us. So it's a very good

question. You know, his father originally heard that from the furor, too. That's something else he'd

tell young Donald. I was going to fact check that. First of all, his father was not wonderful.

And second of all, I'm sure the real story was, if you walk into a restaurant and you see it, and you see it has a black owner, get the fuck out of there. Right, right. And what his father also said is, that's what he means by dirty. Hey, loser, I'm ashamed of you. That's what his father really said. But hey, I'm here of Johnny Eilman Ackerous, and we have brought in a heavyweight guest, a real friend of the show, a great American, a feisty Texan, and a soon-to-be EV driver, because I've been working on him. The one, the only Paul Bagala is with us today. Paulie. Thanks for having me. It's Paul. I'm so happy to see you in all your Texas shit.

Yeah, absolutely.

Oh, yes, I'm repping barbed wire, the barbed wire.

Yeah.

It is the best, I think.

It's new.

Pam Anderson movie?

No, what?

No, it's Texas, Texas politics, sports, music, culture, films.

It's a really good, and one of the founders is my son, Billy Begalla.

It's a publication.

This is a publication on the internet. On the line.

Barb wire, ladies and gentlemen, go check it out with the special code acts.

Olivia Messer, who I think you may know, she's terrific.
