This is Steve Dates.

The Steve Dates Show.

And greetings. Happy Tuesday. Welcome to the Steve Dates Show. Live and on demand on Blaze TV. Radio and podcast.

I'm mostly Steve Dates fighting the annual Sinus infection as we speak. And I'd like to be able to rely on my capable crew here.

But Erzen, you've informed me Todd that you are doing the same. I got something. In fact, I probably caught it for you from you. So I'm just going to blame you. I knew you would.

Even though I get this every year, whether you're here or not, I'm just going to blame you anyway. Aaron, how are you feeling?

I'm good. I say hello. Good. Cause you might have to carry the old men here today. But how is that different? I was just going to say it.

I was just going to say it. And it was going to sound better coming from me than from you. You know, sort of a less defiant disobedient disrespectful.

Well, you know, I have world award winning worldwide renowned humility. So it doesn't really matter.

Indeed. I think we have said before no one is more humble than you. Yep. I mean, you crush him. You absolutely crush humility. I would agree with you on that.

Can you imagine if we pull this off and do this for maybe another 20 years, how pathetic and flemmy this show may end up sounding like that.

I mean, remember Grumpy Old Men, Jack Lemon and Walter Matthew. We may have something there.

If we last that long, let's face it, we're all going to be that we're all going to be surprised.

Right. Yeah. If we last that long either in and amongst ourselves or I think we're going to be surprised.

8 to 800 and the audience as well. 8 to 8, 933, 93 is the number Steve at SteveDace.com is I can email the program.

That's D E A C E for those of you listening on Blaze Radio or podcast like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter at SteveDaceShow.

Coming up on today's program, we're going to talk to one of the last journalists left in America. And he's going to help us get informed on what's happening in the Iowa caucuses and how that might impact the national presidential race.

That's coming up at the bottom of the hour. We've got fake news or not as we typically do on a Tuesday pop culture Tuesday. I'm going to take a page out of Aaron's playbook and let one of our listeners provide the content.

Because one of our listeners Todd Safel has sent us a list. If if the 2020 Democrat presidential or if current political events.

I'm sorry if current political candidates were sporting events that's and this list is great and we're going to have some fun with this with pop culture Tuesday.

If I can actually speak that's coming up in the second hour of the program. But before we get to all of those Zany High Jinks, we must of course begin with Aaron's run down with what happened while we were away.

What happened while we were away brought to you by breaking a rule whenever a story arises where one side of the political divide uses a single child to prop up as their mascot for whatever their pet causes as a rule.
