Speaker 1 (00:10):
This is a Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Final hour of the Jesse Kelly Show on
a magnificent Friday. And ask Doctor Jesse Friday and man,
oh Man, we're gonna talk a little. We'll make fun
of Letitia James real quick. Get back to the ask
(00:31):
Doctor Jesse questions. Tom Holman's still killing it. Jd Vance.
He uh, he really did embarrass the entire European Union.
Apparently the Germans are mad about it. And Letitia James
not at all happy that Trump administration is pulling their money.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
It's unacceptable, unconstitutional, unctrabiased. They've exceeded their authority, and so
it's important that Attorney's General representing our respective states stand
up and enforce the rule of law because Elon Musk,
individuals at the Treasury, and the president of these United
(01:11):
States is not above the law.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
She's angry because they cut all that funding to New York.
Remember a Biden administration was hoovering up as much of
your money as possible and sending it to all their
friends in the blue areas. Trump and them cut it off.
But Letitia maybe maybe going after Trump for all those felonies.
(01:36):
Maybe putting that ridiculous judgment against him. Maybe, in hindsight,
maybe that wasn't the route to go. Look, let's talk
about this Eric Adams thing, because they're going to try
to make this a big deal. They've been trying to
make it a big deal all day. Just to update
you on this before we get back to the emails.
So the saga has been this. Eric Adams, as you
(01:57):
already know, came out as soon as the administration started
shipping a bunch of illegals into his city. He was
critical of it. About five minutes after he was critical
of it, the FBI is kicking in his door. Looked
really bad, looked awfully like. The Biden administration did well
what they always did, and that's used the FBI as
their political cudgel, and so they went after Eric Adams.
(02:21):
Now along comes Donald Trump. He's up in the polls,
looking good. Eric Adams starts to get cozy with Donald Trump,
starts to speak about him well, goes to meet him.
Eric Adams starting to sound like a Trump supporter. Lo
and behold, the Trump Justice Department announces they're dropping the
(02:46):
charges against Eric Adams. Right about the exact same time,
Eric Adams announces that they're going to drop some of
this sanctuary city nonsense in New York City and they're
going to start working with Tom Holman. That's why Holman's
able to say things like.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
This, Get nice officers back in Rikers is meaningful because
we agree that.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Tom Holman can be hard to understand sometimes Rikers he's
talking about Rikers Island, that big infamous jail, obviously New
York City.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Get nice officers back in Rikers is meaningful because we
agree that you know, the worst of the worst, the
firearms violations, the murderers, the kidnapper is a rapist. You
know we'll come to our attention, so release we can
grab them. I made it clear I want everybody. If
you're an illegal in and you get booked in Rikers Island,
I don't care what's for shop lifts, and I want them.
So this is a start to deal with the worst
(03:31):
of the worst in the beginning, but I made it
clear that my plan on the whole of them, I
want everybody.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Eric Adams letting them work with Rikers Island. And now
we have this thing where the Southern District in New
York that US Attorney's Office very the most powerful, most
famous one in the country. That's where you know, all
those mafia prosecutions and things like that, that's where they
came from. There was a resignation. Lady comes out says, hey,
(03:59):
I'm not dropping the charges against Eric Adams. This is crazy,
it's against it's against my moral code. I'm not dropping
these charges. Well, my theory, which I guess is pretty obvious,
but my theory on it is simply this, Eric Adams
and Trump cut a mutually beneficial deal. I don't know
(04:21):
how legitimate the FBI raids on Eric Adams were. That's
not my fault, that's the FBI's fault. You violate my
trust a thousand times. I just naturally assume every time
you raid someone it's political. Don't don't blame me, go
look in the mirror, FBI, you did this to yourself.
So I assumed it was a political hit job. But
I don't know that Eric Adams cuts a deal Trump
(04:47):
Trump will drop his charges. In exchange, Eric Adams will
a be very very lenient with Trump when it comes
to enforcing all the immigration stuff, the deportation stuff Trump
wants to do, and b Trump gets a political inroad
in a state, Trump has some very legitimate access to
(05:10):
grind in. Remember, Donald Trump is a New York man.
I know he lives in Marlago in Florida. Now Donald
Trump is New York City. Everyone knows Donald Trump. He
is a New York City guy. That's where he came up,
That's where he got famous, That's where Trump Tower. Trump
is a New York City guy. And Trump had to
(05:31):
sit back for the last four years and watch New
York City itself and New York State wage war on him,
destroy his reputation. I think that judgment against him was
three hundred million dollars if I remember right, try to
wipe him out financially, and all this stuff was unjustified,
a complete political hit job. Only you did all that
(05:56):
to the guy who won the White House. And now
look as mad as you want, Latitia James, did you
think there were never going to be consequences?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
It's unacceptable, unconstitutional, unctrabiased. They've exceeded their authority, and so
it's important that attorney's general representing our respective states stand
up and enforce the rule of law.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Because, sorry, Letitia Ah Jesse rad Assassin Kelly, this guy says,
I've heard you say the FBI is not saveable and
must be dismantled countless times over the years, and I
strongly agree. But you stop short on expressing if we
need a different kind of cheka or none at all.
Can you elaborate? Well, here's here's what I will say.
(06:49):
Here's what I will say. I'm not willing to entertain
the thought of a new federal law enforcement arm at
this time. And I know that sounds like lawyers speak,
but allow me to explain. Allow me to explain. You
ever know an alcoholic or maybe you've been one, maybe
you are one. Maybe you're struggling with booze right now,
(07:10):
So let's talk about alcohol for a moment, or an
alcoholic for a moment. I'm going out to dinner tonight
with OP. I don't struggle with alcohol. I have in
my past, so I know what you're going through. But
I don't struggle with alcohol anymore. It's just not a
big thing for me. But I'm going out to dinner
with OP tonight. Let's say I have been struggling mightily
(07:31):
with alcohol. I'm just drinking all the time and drunk
and just really really struggling with alcohol. But I'm trying
to clean up. I'm trying to get clean. I should
not have a glass of wine or a bourbon or.
I don't drink wine, but I shouldn't have a whiskey tonight,
even one, because I've shown a history of being susceptible
(07:52):
to abusing it. So I don't get the right to
go have a glass. I'll have a glass of water,
maybe I'll have a coke. Call it a night. Because
of my history of abusing it, I should avoid it completely.
If you've never abused it, you've never struggled with it,
then go have a freaking glass. Have a glass, enjoy
(08:16):
your evening, go home, relax, go to sleep, have a glass.
The federal government run by Democrats. Go Look, ninety two
percent of them voted for Kamala Harris. The federal government
is Democrat. The Democrat Party is now communist, evil, filthy communists.
They have used the Federal Law Enforcement Arm as their
(08:38):
political plaything to repeatedly attack their political opponents. At this time,
I am not willing to entertain the idea of having
a new federal law enforcement Arm. Why, because you Democrats
have proven repeatedly, time and time again, you will abuse it.
(09:00):
You struggle with it if I give you that power,
because remember, Democrats will have power again soon. I don't
know what soon means, don't get me wrong, but they
will have power again at some point in time. And
you have already proven when you take over the FBI,
you will send them after the Republican nominee. You will
send them after pro lifers, you will send them after
school board moms. You will send the FBI after all
(09:24):
your political enemies. So at this point in time, maybe
this will be different twenty years from now, thirty years
from now, But at this point in time, Democrats have
proven that they cannot be trusted with a federal law
enforcement arm that has the power of the FBI. So
to answer your question, at this time, no, I am
not supportive of any federal law enforcement agency replacing the FBI.
(09:49):
What they have done could have ended and still can
if it doesn't get cleaned out. Could have ended the
United States of America. I told you before, and I
made it completely. The Federal Bureau of invent Mistigation, if
not brought to heel, will cause a civil war in
this country. It will. It would get to the point
where Red states would have to have their state police
agencies fighting the FBI to protect the citizens. And then
(10:12):
that adds to one state joins this, the other state joins.
That's how civil wars start. The FBI could end America
if not brought to heel. No, no more federal law
enforcement arm. You savages have proven you cannot be trusted
with it, So no, it's gone. I don't trust them,
not like I trust my obliterator, that's for sure. The
(10:34):
obliterator is there for me every single morning. My blender,
which has a name, the Obliterator, it's there for me.
I never have to worry. I never have to worry
if things are going to be blended right because it
has auto sense technology. I don't know what setting do
I I don't have to do any of that. Bob
gets up there and she dombes all that healthy filth
in that thing and just bip. It's the button premium
(10:58):
blender without dropping hundreds of dollars on it. It's recognized
by red Dot as a best concept designed. You don't
have to stash it in your pantry. Oh hi, the blender.
It looks good. Go get yourself an obliterator. And Chefman
who makes it, they're offering fifteen percent off the entire website. Oh,
(11:20):
it's a lot more than just the obliterator. Don't think
that's all they do. Fifteen percent off the entire website
with the promote code Jesse at checkout, cch E, FMA
N dot com, Chefman dot com code Jesse get an obliterator,
get her a blender for Valentine's Day. That's what she wants.
(11:42):
We'll be back, what, Chris, We can make jokes. It's fine,
you get that right. The Jesse Kelly chew It is
the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Valentine's Day
on a Friday. Member. You can email the show Jesse
at Jesse show dot com. Jesse. One thing I don't
(12:03):
here mention is the fact that neither Hamas nor Hesbellah
have been defeated. A ceasefire to get hostages is only
useful if the war starts up again after the trades.
Nothing in Gaza should be rebuilt until Hamas surrenders and
the Palestinians agree to cease hostilities and agree to a
permanent solution. People are speaking as though the war is over.
(12:24):
It's not. What do you think says? His name? Is Paul. Well,
that war is never going to be over.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Paul.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
This this goes well beyond a region. You know. You
say Hamas Hezbealah are not defeated. Well, there's new recruits
for these organizations all the time. There's always uh angry,
mixed up young man. He wants to he wants a
(12:56):
cause to fight for once adventure and organizations like these
because they get money. Remember, there's money in all this.
The leaders of Hamas, I know it's called cutter. I
don't like that. The leaders of Hamas are in Qatar.
They're millionaires. They steal all that money the international world
(13:16):
gives them. They're millionaires. There's money in it. It's funded,
it's organized. Hesp law is well well well funded and
well equipped, funded and organized. There's money in all this
stuff too. So the leaders who are living high on
the hog, they're not living some life of some you know,
saintly Imam or something like that. Oh, these guys are
private jets, you know, fancy booz steaks and things like that.
(13:42):
I mean, you can say they're not defeated, but they
won't be. They won't be. And the people of this
planet in the year twenty twenty five. They don't have
they don't have the will to actually defeat them. And
I don't know that you do to be I don't
know that. I do you know who? You know who
(14:03):
put a stop to all this stuff? Gang is con
You realize that, how do you do that? You just
would and kill them all? Okay, well you're not gonna submit. Okay,
we're all gonna die. Do you want to do that?
I don't want to do that. I think that's barbaric
and horrific. I think we should probably avoid genocide. But
that's that's what it takes if you're trying to shoot
(14:25):
stuff like that down. Jesse, what are your top five
burger joints? His name is Phil. I don't need many
many cheeseburgers in restaurants because restaurant cheeseburgers can never and
will never measure up to the world fame. Don't roll
your eyes, Chris to the world famous Jesse Kelly Burger.
(14:46):
They just, you know, you know why restaurant cheeseburgers, You
know why they fail? A couple of reasons they fail.
One they make the patty too thick. A good burger
is supposed to have a thin patty. If you want
more meat, get a double. But the patty itself is
supposed to be thin. That's one. Two. They mail it
in on the buns, and I get it. It's tough.
Maybe you're a restaurant owner. It's tough to get fresh supplies,
(15:09):
and it's expensive. What do you charge? I understand that,
But the bun, it's not just a delivery mechanism for
the meat and the cheese. The bun is a critical
component for the burger. Burger with a fresh bun makes
all the difference in the world. They don't melt the
cheese properly, and this is a mistake. A lot of
restaurants make, not the great ones, but a lot of
(15:31):
restaurants make the mistake of not really seasoning things too much.
Because you don't want to turn someone off. You're trying
to stay middle of the road, if you will, trying
to stay lukewarm. You see this, You know the difference
between the good Mexican restaurants down here and the bad ones.
You can always tell. I have my test, Like with
a pizza restaurant, My test is a pepperoni pizza. When
(15:54):
I find a new pizza restaurant, now I like more
than just pepperoni on pizza. I like all kinds of things,
but if it's brand new, I'll the pepperoni. Why because
if you can't do a pepperoni pizza, I don't know.
I don't need to know what your pepperoni and mushroom
pizza is. You can't do a pepperoni. You can't do pizza.
For Mexican restaurants, it's the caso. Don't roll your eyes,
Chris Queso's the barometer you use for a Mexican restaurant.
(16:20):
Mexican restaurants can, and many of them do just come
up with some sort of liquid cheese without really any
peppers or any season or whatever in it and just
kind of serve that and people will be okay with it.
But then there are Mexican restaurants who take chances and
take the time and you get it and it's chunky
(16:40):
and it's spicy and there's peppers and they took the
time to put stuff in it. That tells me everything
I need to know about the rest of the Mexican restaurant.
Is the caso a throwaway item where you just melt
it down some velveta and poured some milk in it
and brought it to my table. Or is the caso
something you actually took the time to in to. I
(17:01):
demand better case. So, dear doctor, body wash, tiny hands.
I hate you guys. Can you explain to me how
the government incentivizes women not to have a father in
the house. So well, government paid since Lyndon Johnson's Great Society,
government paid women to not have a father in the house.
It's destroyed, it's destroyed the Black community in this country.
It's freaking awful. You know, people point out the fatherless
(17:24):
problem in the black community today, and that's very valid
to point out. Seventy one percent I think the number
is before Lyndon Johnson came in and did all that,
seventy five percent of black children grew up in a
two family home in this country. Do you know that
this is during segregation. We're talking. They're suffering racial oppression,
(17:44):
systemic racial oppression in this country. And still seventy five
percent raised with a mother and a father. And then
the federal government stepped in and blew the whole thing up.
Of course, all that was done on purpose to try
to just grab all those votes. And Johnson has a
very non PC quote that has attributed to him about that,
(18:05):
But it was done for that reason. It wasn't ever
done to help anybody. By the way, who's your cell
phone provider? You need to remember to put your money
where your morals are all the time, and with your
cell phone, it's easy. There are hard There are hard
things about doing that. Putting your money where your morals are,
it's hard, but not for your cell phone. Pure Talk
(18:25):
now they're offering free phones iPhone fourteen or a Samsung
Galaxy when you sign up for a qualifying plan, a
free phone. Look at your phone right now. Look at
those cracks on the screen. You know what I'm talking about.
You know your phone is slowed down. It's just it's
time for something new. And when the average family saves
one thousand dollars a year by switching to Pure Talk,
(18:48):
doesn't that sound like something you want to do? Dial
pound two five zero and say Jesse Kelly. You'll take
ten minutes on the phone speaking to an American who
speaks English and they're pleasant. It's cake to switch switch
and you can look. If you don't want a new phone,
you can keep your phone, you keep your number. It's easy.
(19:10):
They make it easy pound two five zero, say Jesse Kelly.
We'll be back get the cure for rhinos. Week days
with the Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse Kelly
Show on a wonderful Friday. The freaking Europeans are so
dagone mad at jd Vance right now. It's miraculous all
(19:31):
these European leaders coming out today. I can't believe he
said that. I can't believe he said that. The German
guy gets up and says, oh, we can't like the Twitter.
Stop hurt our country and stop us. All these people
are just tyrants, all of them, every one of them.
They see themselves as kings and queens and they don't
(19:52):
want to be criticized. They don't want their policies criticized.
Like all filthy tyrants, they believe in control, they believe
in force, and man, it just did my heart so
well to c JD.
Speaker 5 (20:05):
Today, I looked to Brussels, where EU Commission commissars warned
citizens that they intend to shut down.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
He called them commissars.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
I'm dying dying social media during times of civil unrest,
the moment they spot what they've judged to be quote,
hateful content or to this very country where police have
carried out raids against citizens suspected of posting anti feminist
comments online as part of quote combating misogyny on the Internet.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Can you imagine how many years I would spend in
prison if I lived in a society where I couldn't
post anti feminist quot gay of action.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
I looked to Sweden or two weeks ago, the government
convicted a Christian activist for participating in Kuran burnings that
resulted in his friend's murder.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
He just stood in front of all of them and
burned them to their face.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
While the Trump administration is very concerned with European security
and believes that we can come to a reasonable settlement
between Russia and Ukraine, and we also believe that it's
important in the coming years for Europe to step up
in a big way to provide for its own defense.
The threat that I worry the most about visa e
(21:17):
Europe is not Russia, it's not China, it's not any
other external actor.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
And what I worry about is.
Speaker 5 (21:24):
The threat from within the retreat of Europe from some
of its most fundamental values, values shared with the United
States of America.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Go get them, Jesse o King of the Little Digits.
It's not nice. I don't get a chance to listen
to the show live, so I listen on Spotify. When
the ads come on, it's always an advertisement about hair regrowth?
Was that Chris's idea? His name is Corey. That's not
very nice. For one, Corey, did you write it that
in did court? Did producer Coy write in that email? Okay? One,
(21:58):
that's not very nice. Two. Remember, unless you hear my voice,
then that's an ad that your iHeart puts in there.
Though I control the ones that I'm voicing. I don't
own these air waves. Premiere does I Heart? Does they
allow me to use them? But maybe we could talk
(22:18):
to corporate about those hurtful hair replacement ants. Chris, No,
I don't want more of them. I don't want any
more of them. It hurts me. Everyone hurts me. Klay Travis,
that jerk was saying some really hurtful things to me
publicly about my hair. There was some article in the
New York Post about regrowing hair, and publicly he sent
(22:38):
it to me in front of everyone else. Not very nice. Jesse,
do you have a K bar? Do I need a
K bar? Are they still a good knife or are
they just cool? Have modern options made them obsolete? Okay,
so I'm not a knife expert at all. What is
a K bar? Chris? Are you serious? Okay? A k
(23:00):
bar is a knife. It's a military knife. They were
still issuing if your job required one. They were still
issuing k bars when I was in the Marines in
two thousand and four. Maybe they've phased that out for
something different. Have modern options made them obsolete? It's the
interesting question here. There are there superior knives today than
(23:24):
the k bar? Of course, of course, but there's a
nostalgic thing about k bar that I think you should
get one. That's one. Two. I don't have one, if
I'm being honest, and now I need to buy one.
I mean, I'll find a deal on one somewhere. I'll
get fun. I'll go to a gun show with something.
I'll get a deal on one. But two, I need one. Three.
(23:46):
I've got a little, a little k bar story for
you here. Marine Raiders. You ever heard of the Marine Raiders?
They're back, they exist now, but they first came around
during World War II. Who it's essentially the Marines version
of the Navy Seals, right, the Green Berets, it's their
special forces, the Raiders. Well, in World War two, Red
(24:10):
mike Etson, he really started training his raiders to go
get involved in the war in the Pacific, and they
ended up bouncing around the Pacific doing all this amazing
jungle fighting. Just the nastiest, toughest dudes like ever Marine
raiders and World War two in the Pacific, just amazing
human beings. Their original knife was known as a stalletto.
(24:35):
You can go look at pictures of it. Trying to
think the best way to describe it. A long, slender,
double edged blade that was pointy, very very pointy. On
the end the blade looks more like a very thin triangle,
so you look at it and you're like, wow, that
must be a very good stabbing weapon. Well, world War
(24:56):
two in the Pacific, because of the environment, because you're
always the jungle environment, it's hard to see, you end
up getting close to the enemy. And because of the
Japanese love and admiration for the blade for hand to
hand combat. Remember Japanese officers would routinely carry Samurai swords
(25:17):
with them. Yeah, I know, it is freaking cool, Chris,
It's pretty good anyway. They loved the blade. They admire
their Samurai history, and they loved hand to hand combat.
Because of the jungle and the Japanese love for the
blade and hand to hand combat, in the Pacific, there
was all kinds of hand to hand combat and it
(25:42):
had to be like the worst thing in the world,
And to hear guys describe it, it was you would
just find yourself. You're using your shovel, and he's got
a knife, and you're gonna sit there and you're gonna
brawl it out and see who can beat each other
to death. They will drop, They would drop into your
fighting hole with you at night to die, ready to die,
(26:02):
and they would just try to kill you and your buddy.
And you're having a knife fight in a fighting hole,
you and your buddy in two Japanese guys with knives
and fists in your bite. That it was not uncommon
at all hand to hand combat. The Marine raiders in
the Pacific did so much of it, so much hand
(26:23):
to hand combat, so much straight out of the movies,
sneaking up behind somebody and slipping a knife in between
his ribs or cutting his throat, that they decided they
needed a superior knife to the stiletto. They didn't think
the stiletto was doing it well enough, and so the Marines,
after they tried it, switched to the k bar because
(26:47):
the k bar was just better in their mind, for
stabbing people to death and for the other various things
they needed to use it with. Does that not make
the ke bar even cooler?
Speaker 6 (26:59):
The Marine raiders, the super specops type in World War
Two said, no, I don't like to cut people's throat
with this. I like to cut people's throat.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
With the k bar. Give me one of those. Isn't
that freaking cool? Hey, mister waffle House, does your hate
for mashed potatoes extend to grits? Absolutely not. Mashed potatoes
and grits are not even close to being the same
thing at all. Grits, Oh my gosh, shrimp and grits.
If you get some Cajun restaurants, there's all kinds of
(27:32):
great Cajun restaurants here in Houston. You get some good,
cheesy grits and then get what, Chris, what are you
looking at? What you people can eat that grits do
not suck? Why are you being Is this because I
brought up the shrimp? Chris? You can have kosher and
grits or something. I don't know. No, not all grits suck. No,
(27:52):
they're not do I like oatmeal. Grits are not oatmeal.
If you get cheesy grits that somebody has put some
time into, how can you sit and dog grits with
a straight face? Man, Some get some black and shrimp
or some cage and shrimp on some cheesy grits. Gosh,
I love that. My old man loved the grits, love
(28:13):
shrimp and grits so much. I miss him. Anyway, Go
get some gold. Countries around the globe. China's still doing
this stocking up on gold. Stop stocking up on gold.
They're already talking about, Hey, gold's gonna go up, Gold's
gonna go up. Federal Reserve chairmen out there saying interstrates
(28:34):
are not coming down. Read the tea leaves and go
to gold code for your gold. Because I trust them.
That's why they have an A plus rating with the
Better Business Bureau. That tells me everything I need to know.
They've won awards over the last decade. Go look at
their five star reviews, over six thousand of them. Three
(28:56):
bill in gold and silver. They've placed, get it in
your retirement in your retirement account so you don't get
wiped out, and get some in your physical possession. And
if you just want to learn more, they have a
twenty twenty five gold and silver kit they'll give you free,

to protect yourself. Or you can call them keep in
mind eight five five eight one seven gold or jesse
likes Gold dot com. All right, Trump's dealing with Zelenski
and all this Ukraine mess. Why bother the Jesse Kelly Show.
(29:42):
It's still real to me, Dammit the Tyrian stacks. It
is the Jesse Kelly Show. Final segment of The Jesse
Kelly Show. On a Friday of Valentine's Day. I have
to go spend some money on steak and stuff like that.
But she's worth it, and she's worth it. I love you, Princess.
It's gonna be an gonna be an expensive night. What
(30:03):
Chris what? Yeah? The food is gonna be good. The
food is gonna get We're just not steakhouses. Look, I
love a steakhouse as much as the next guy. And gosh,
I'm gonna make myself sound like Chris here and I
hate myself for this, but I really prefer a steakhouse
when someone else is buying. Like what, Chris, you understand
(30:25):
now that it's always some corporate event when you gotta
when I have to go meet the suits, I gotta
fly out of town that as soon as you get
to get with them them. I mean, it's it's it's
easier to order that steak that costs like sixty dollars
when you're on someone else's time. Just is I'm more
of a red lobster man. I'm more of a Little
(30:47):
Caesar's Pepperoni puffs. And you know what, it's not just me.
I told you I watched that Super Bowl and maybe
they've been doing this during the NFL games. I don't know.
I'ven't been watching, but I a commercial. I'm pretty sure
it was during the Super Bowl where they were advertising
the Pepperoni puffs for Little Caesars. What Corey did? I what?
(31:12):
I don't know if there's a bacon version of it, Corey,
but we should look into that as a show. We
should do some research not for you, Chris, Corey and
I can have bacon, Okay, Corey and I either way.
The pepperoni puffs that Little Caesar's are so good. And
if ob would just text me and say, hey, I'd
rather have Little Caesar's tonight, what Chris, I would be
(31:34):
okay with that. I would do that in a heartbeat.
But now she has her heart set on steak and
there's no one to pay for it, no one to
pay for it. Now it's just me, me, sixty dollars steak.
You know what I'll do. I won't get any appetizers.
I'll go appetizer free. I'm not even gonna get a salad.
And then ab will be like, you need a sound
(31:55):
because you can have your vegetables. You know how she
is with the hell stuff. And I'll act like like
I already had one at work. No, she'll never believe that. Anyway,
Let's do some couple more emails. Dear Jesse, Why should
Trump even waste his time talking to Zolensky. Isn't Zelensky
the reason he was almost impeached? Well, he has no
choice right now if you're going to bring the Ukraine
(32:17):
Russia war to an end then Zolensky has to be
part of that and he will bring it to an end.
I really do believe that now, because they both they
both sound like they want it, meaning Putin and Zelensky.
It was it was the Biden administration that was keeping
that whole thing going. Zelensky doesn't have the men, and
(32:37):
without America supplying the endless war, without US sending all
the crap we've been sending them, Zelensky can't He can't
keep going. And we don't like to talk about this
because very few people were rooting for Russia. You may
not be the biggest Ukraine fan. I may not be
the biggest Ukraine fan, but I don't know many people
(32:58):
who were rooting for Russia to invade and win and
things like that. We don't like. We don't like people
losing a war, but oftentimes, remember historically, when you lose
a war, it's not the end of the world. We
have a World War II version of what warfare looks like,
(33:20):
where no unconditional surrender, complete annihilation. We will reduce your
society to rubble and then we'll tell you how you
can go from there. But that's not the norm throughout history,
throughout history, when there is a war between tribes or nations,
they will go they will fight over something, land, something, whatever,
(33:42):
they fight over, and then there's a negotiated peace, a
negotiated peace. I'll take a little of this, you take
a little of that. Okay, you lost the war. I'm
gonna take a little bit of your land. I'm gonna
do this. I'm gonna That is how wars end, That's
how most wars end. And this war could have been
(34:04):
over a couple years ago. They were trying for a
negotiated peace, and for what I believe are a lot
of very very corrupt reasons, the West, the UK, and
America didn't want it to happen. I mean, you remember
I played you that clip from Tucker the other day.
Speaker 4 (34:21):
Second fact, fact, not guess fact is Ukrainian military is
selling a huge resentge up to half of the arms
that we send them half. And I'm not guessing about this.
I know that for a fact, a fact, okay, not speculation.
And they're selling it and a lot of us winding
up with the drug cartels on our border. So this
is the this is a crime. What's happening. Our intel
(34:43):
agencies are fully aware of this. You tell me they're
not profiting from this. Of course you think CA is
not profiting from this. I guess they are.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
We just keep sending all our people, all the Ukrainian people,
into the meat grinder, so they could keep washing money
and weapons and everything else over there, just to tear
I can't wait for it to end. I'm not Ukrainian,
I'm not Russia, and I have no affinity for either
of those countries. It just breaks my heart that many
young men getting butchered like that. And it breaks my
heart that you haven't found a good employee yet. I
(35:12):
hate that. I hate that you haven't gone to ZipRecruiter

Speaker 5 (36:10):
But you know, you know the thing emails we didn't
get to you.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Use trailer salesman. I'm buying a new motorcycle soon and
I need advice on how to negotiate a better price.
What are the dues? And don'ts save some cash? Oracle Well, first,
and this is gonna sound crazy, treat your salesman with
some respect. Hear me out on this. People love, especially dudes,
(36:41):
because it's a competition, and we view it as a competition.
Dudes like to present that face to people as if
the salesman who's trying to find you the motorcycle, as
if he's some ripoff artist, piece of trash, and he
maybe there are all kinds of scummy salesmen out there.
But if you treat him like crap, he's going to
treat you like crap back. I was a salesman RV
(37:04):
salesman for a few years. I was a sales manager
for a few years. I was pretty good at it.
If you treated me like crap, I would treat you
like dirt, and I would rip your head off on
the price too. You don't get to treat me like crap.
I'm a human being. However, if you were cool with me,
you know I have customers I sold RVs to I
(37:24):
will still text with to this day. If you were
cool with me, I'll go advocate for you to my
general manager to get you a better price. Be cool
with the salesman, see what it can do, and don't
ask for honeyed your bottom dollar price. Here's what you
say to him, Hey, I'm not paying full sticker on this.
(37:48):
Get me a fair price and I'll buy it today.
You let him know that you are there to buy,
that you have made a buying decision, and then you
put it on him to get you a fair price.
He's going to go back and he's gonna tell his
sales manager or his GM. Hey man, I got a
buyer I need you to help me out. Tell him
you're going to buy it today. Wait till you find
(38:09):
the one you want, and tell him you'll buy it today.
You get a good price. Go enjoy your husband, Enjoy
your wife, girlfriend, boyfriend on Valentine's Day, or if you're single,
enjoy being a feminist. I'll see on Monday. That's all
This is a Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Final hour of the Jesse Kelly Show on
a magnificent Friday. And ask Doctor Jesse Friday and man,
oh Man, we're gonna talk a little. We'll make fun
of Letitia James real quick. Get back to the ask
(00:31):
Doctor Jesse questions. Tom Holman's still killing it. Jd Vance.
He uh, he really did embarrass the entire European Union.
Apparently the Germans are mad about it. And Letitia James
not at all happy that Trump administration is pulling their money.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
It's unacceptable, unconstitutional, unctrabiased. They've exceeded their authority, and so
it's important that Attorney's General representing our respective states stand
up and enforce the rule of law because Elon Musk,
individuals at the Treasury, and the president of these United
(01:11):
States is not above the law.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
She's angry because they cut all that funding to New York.
Remember a Biden administration was hoovering up as much of
your money as possible and sending it to all their
friends in the blue areas. Trump and them cut it off.
But Letitia maybe maybe going after Trump for all those felonies.
(01:36):
Maybe putting that ridiculous judgment against him. Maybe, in hindsight,
maybe that wasn't the route to go. Look, let's talk
about this Eric Adams thing, because they're going to try
to make this a big deal. They've been trying to
make it a big deal all day. Just to update
you on this before we get back to the emails.
So the saga has been this. Eric Adams, as you
(01:57):
already know, came out as soon as the administration started
shipping a bunch of illegals into his city. He was
critical of it. About five minutes after he was critical
of it, the FBI is kicking in his door. Looked
really bad, looked awfully like. The Biden administration did well
what they always did, and that's used the FBI as
their political cudgel, and so they went after Eric Adams.
(02:21):
Now along comes Donald Trump. He's up in the polls,
looking good. Eric Adams starts to get cozy with Donald Trump,
starts to speak about him well, goes to meet him.
Eric Adams starting to sound like a Trump supporter. Lo
and behold, the Trump Justice Department announces they're dropping the
(02:46):
charges against Eric Adams. Right about the exact same time,
Eric Adams announces that they're going to drop some of
this sanctuary city nonsense in New York City and they're
going to start working with Tom Holman. That's why Holman's
able to say things like.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
This, Get nice officers back in Rikers is meaningful because
we agree that.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Tom Holman can be hard to understand sometimes Rikers he's
talking about Rikers Island, that big infamous jail, obviously New
York City.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Get nice officers back in Rikers is meaningful because we
agree that you know, the worst of the worst, the
firearms violations, the murderers, the kidnapper is a rapist. You
know we'll come to our attention, so release we can
grab them. I made it clear I want everybody. If
you're an illegal in and you get booked in Rikers Island,
I don't care what's for shop lifts, and I want them.
So this is a start to deal with the worst
(03:31):
of the worst in the beginning, but I made it
clear that my plan on the whole of them, I
want everybody.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Eric Adams letting them work with Rikers Island. And now
we have this thing where the Southern District in New
York that US Attorney's Office very the most powerful, most
famous one in the country. That's where you know, all
those mafia prosecutions and things like that, that's where they
came from. There was a resignation. Lady comes out says, hey,
(03:59):
I'm not dropping the charges against Eric Adams. This is crazy,
it's against it's against my moral code. I'm not dropping
these charges. Well, my theory, which I guess is pretty obvious,
but my theory on it is simply this, Eric Adams
and Trump cut a mutually beneficial deal. I don't know
(04:21):
how legitimate the FBI raids on Eric Adams were. That's
not my fault, that's the FBI's fault. You violate my
trust a thousand times. I just naturally assume every time
you raid someone it's political. Don't don't blame me, go
look in the mirror, FBI, you did this to yourself.
So I assumed it was a political hit job. But
I don't know that Eric Adams cuts a deal Trump
(04:47):
Trump will drop his charges. In exchange, Eric Adams will
a be very very lenient with Trump when it comes
to enforcing all the immigration stuff, the deportation stuff Trump
wants to do, and b Trump gets a political inroad
in a state, Trump has some very legitimate access to
(05:10):
grind in. Remember, Donald Trump is a New York man.
I know he lives in Marlago in Florida. Now Donald
Trump is New York City. Everyone knows Donald Trump. He
is a New York City guy. That's where he came up,
That's where he got famous, That's where Trump Tower. Trump
is a New York City guy. And Trump had to
(05:31):
sit back for the last four years and watch New
York City itself and New York State wage war on him,
destroy his reputation. I think that judgment against him was
three hundred million dollars if I remember right, try to
wipe him out financially, and all this stuff was unjustified,
a complete political hit job. Only you did all that
(05:56):
to the guy who won the White House. And now
look as mad as you want, Latitia James, did you
think there were never going to be consequences?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
It's unacceptable, unconstitutional, unctrabiased. They've exceeded their authority, and so
it's important that attorney's general representing our respective states stand
up and enforce the rule of law.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Because, sorry, Letitia Ah Jesse rad Assassin Kelly, this guy says,
I've heard you say the FBI is not saveable and
must be dismantled countless times over the years, and I
strongly agree. But you stop short on expressing if we
need a different kind of cheka or none at all.
Can you elaborate? Well, here's here's what I will say.
(06:49):
Here's what I will say. I'm not willing to entertain
the thought of a new federal law enforcement arm at
this time. And I know that sounds like lawyers speak,
but allow me to explain. Allow me to explain. You
ever know an alcoholic or maybe you've been one, maybe
you are one. Maybe you're struggling with booze right now,
(07:10):
So let's talk about alcohol for a moment, or an
alcoholic for a moment. I'm going out to dinner tonight
with OP. I don't struggle with alcohol. I have in
my past, so I know what you're going through. But
I don't struggle with alcohol anymore. It's just not a
big thing for me. But I'm going out to dinner
with OP tonight. Let's say I have been struggling mightily
(07:31):
with alcohol. I'm just drinking all the time and drunk
and just really really struggling with alcohol. But I'm trying
to clean up. I'm trying to get clean. I should
not have a glass of wine or a bourbon or.
I don't drink wine, but I shouldn't have a whiskey tonight,
even one, because I've shown a history of being susceptible
(07:52):
to abusing it. So I don't get the right to
go have a glass. I'll have a glass of water,
maybe I'll have a coke. Call it a night. Because
of my history of abusing it, I should avoid it completely.
If you've never abused it, you've never struggled with it,
then go have a freaking glass. Have a glass, enjoy
(08:16):
your evening, go home, relax, go to sleep, have a glass.
The federal government run by Democrats. Go Look, ninety two
percent of them voted for Kamala Harris. The federal government
is Democrat. The Democrat Party is now communist, evil, filthy communists.
They have used the Federal Law Enforcement Arm as their
(08:38):
political plaything to repeatedly attack their political opponents. At this time,
I am not willing to entertain the idea of having
a new federal law enforcement Arm. Why, because you Democrats
have proven repeatedly, time and time again, you will abuse it.
(09:00):
You struggle with it if I give you that power,
because remember, Democrats will have power again soon. I don't
know what soon means, don't get me wrong, but they
will have power again at some point in time. And
you have already proven when you take over the FBI,
you will send them after the Republican nominee. You will
send them after pro lifers, you will send them after
school board moms. You will send the FBI after all
(09:24):
your political enemies. So at this point in time, maybe
this will be different twenty years from now, thirty years
from now, But at this point in time, Democrats have
proven that they cannot be trusted with a federal law
enforcement arm that has the power of the FBI. So
to answer your question, at this time, no, I am
not supportive of any federal law enforcement agency replacing the FBI.
(09:49):
What they have done could have ended and still can
if it doesn't get cleaned out. Could have ended the
United States of America. I told you before, and I
made it completely. The Federal Bureau of invent Mistigation, if
not brought to heel, will cause a civil war in
this country. It will. It would get to the point
where Red states would have to have their state police
agencies fighting the FBI to protect the citizens. And then
(10:12):
that adds to one state joins this, the other state joins.
That's how civil wars start. The FBI could end America
if not brought to heel. No, no more federal law
enforcement arm. You savages have proven you cannot be trusted
with it, So no, it's gone. I don't trust them,
not like I trust my obliterator, that's for sure. The
(10:34):
obliterator is there for me every single morning. My blender,
which has a name, the Obliterator, it's there for me.
I never have to worry. I never have to worry
if things are going to be blended right because it
has auto sense technology. I don't know what setting do
I I don't have to do any of that. Bob
gets up there and she dombes all that healthy filth
in that thing and just bip. It's the button premium
(10:58):
blender without dropping hundreds of dollars on it. It's recognized
by red Dot as a best concept designed. You don't
have to stash it in your pantry. Oh hi, the blender.
It looks good. Go get yourself an obliterator. And Chefman
who makes it, they're offering fifteen percent off the entire website. Oh,
(11:20):
it's a lot more than just the obliterator. Don't think
that's all they do. Fifteen percent off the entire website
with the promote code Jesse at checkout, cch E, FMA
N dot com, Chefman dot com code Jesse get an obliterator,
get her a blender for Valentine's Day. That's what she wants.
(11:42):
We'll be back, what, Chris, We can make jokes. It's fine,
you get that right. The Jesse Kelly chew It is
the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Valentine's Day
on a Friday. Member. You can email the show Jesse
at Jesse show dot com. Jesse. One thing I don't
(12:03):
here mention is the fact that neither Hamas nor Hesbellah
have been defeated. A ceasefire to get hostages is only
useful if the war starts up again after the trades.
Nothing in Gaza should be rebuilt until Hamas surrenders and
the Palestinians agree to cease hostilities and agree to a
permanent solution. People are speaking as though the war is over.
(12:24):
It's not. What do you think says? His name? Is Paul. Well,
that war is never going to be over.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Paul.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
This this goes well beyond a region. You know. You
say Hamas Hezbealah are not defeated. Well, there's new recruits
for these organizations all the time. There's always uh angry,
mixed up young man. He wants to he wants a
(12:56):
cause to fight for once adventure and organizations like these
because they get money. Remember, there's money in all this.
The leaders of Hamas, I know it's called cutter. I
don't like that. The leaders of Hamas are in Qatar.
They're millionaires. They steal all that money the international world
(13:16):
gives them. They're millionaires. There's money in it. It's funded,
it's organized. Hesp law is well well well funded and
well equipped, funded and organized. There's money in all this
stuff too. So the leaders who are living high on
the hog, they're not living some life of some you know,
saintly Imam or something like that. Oh, these guys are
private jets, you know, fancy booz steaks and things like that.
(13:42):
I mean, you can say they're not defeated, but they
won't be. They won't be. And the people of this
planet in the year twenty twenty five. They don't have
they don't have the will to actually defeat them. And
I don't know that you do to be I don't
know that. I do you know who? You know who
(14:03):
put a stop to all this stuff? Gang is con
You realize that, how do you do that? You just
would and kill them all? Okay, well you're not gonna submit. Okay,
we're all gonna die. Do you want to do that?
I don't want to do that. I think that's barbaric
and horrific. I think we should probably avoid genocide. But
that's that's what it takes if you're trying to shoot
(14:25):
stuff like that down. Jesse, what are your top five
burger joints? His name is Phil. I don't need many
many cheeseburgers in restaurants because restaurant cheeseburgers can never and
will never measure up to the world fame. Don't roll
your eyes, Chris to the world famous Jesse Kelly Burger.
(14:46):
They just, you know, you know why restaurant cheeseburgers, You
know why they fail? A couple of reasons they fail.
One they make the patty too thick. A good burger
is supposed to have a thin patty. If you want
more meat, get a double. But the patty itself is
supposed to be thin. That's one. Two. They mail it
in on the buns, and I get it. It's tough.
Maybe you're a restaurant owner. It's tough to get fresh supplies,
(15:09):
and it's expensive. What do you charge? I understand that,
But the bun, it's not just a delivery mechanism for
the meat and the cheese. The bun is a critical
component for the burger. Burger with a fresh bun makes
all the difference in the world. They don't melt the
cheese properly, and this is a mistake. A lot of
restaurants make, not the great ones, but a lot of
(15:31):
restaurants make the mistake of not really seasoning things too much.
Because you don't want to turn someone off. You're trying
to stay middle of the road, if you will, trying
to stay lukewarm. You see this, You know the difference
between the good Mexican restaurants down here and the bad ones.
You can always tell. I have my test, Like with
a pizza restaurant, My test is a pepperoni pizza. When
(15:54):
I find a new pizza restaurant, now I like more
than just pepperoni on pizza. I like all kinds of things,
but if it's brand new, I'll the pepperoni. Why because
if you can't do a pepperoni pizza, I don't know.
I don't need to know what your pepperoni and mushroom
pizza is. You can't do a pepperoni. You can't do pizza.
For Mexican restaurants, it's the caso. Don't roll your eyes,
Chris Queso's the barometer you use for a Mexican restaurant.
(16:20):
Mexican restaurants can, and many of them do just come
up with some sort of liquid cheese without really any
peppers or any season or whatever in it and just
kind of serve that and people will be okay with it.
But then there are Mexican restaurants who take chances and
take the time and you get it and it's chunky
(16:40):
and it's spicy and there's peppers and they took the
time to put stuff in it. That tells me everything
I need to know about the rest of the Mexican restaurant.
Is the caso a throwaway item where you just melt
it down some velveta and poured some milk in it
and brought it to my table. Or is the caso
something you actually took the time to in to. I
(17:01):
demand better case. So, dear doctor, body wash, tiny hands.
I hate you guys. Can you explain to me how
the government incentivizes women not to have a father in
the house. So well, government paid since Lyndon Johnson's Great Society,
government paid women to not have a father in the house.
It's destroyed, it's destroyed the Black community in this country.
It's freaking awful. You know, people point out the fatherless
(17:24):
problem in the black community today, and that's very valid
to point out. Seventy one percent I think the number
is before Lyndon Johnson came in and did all that,
seventy five percent of black children grew up in a
two family home in this country. Do you know that
this is during segregation. We're talking. They're suffering racial oppression,
(17:44):
systemic racial oppression in this country. And still seventy five
percent raised with a mother and a father. And then
the federal government stepped in and blew the whole thing up.
Of course, all that was done on purpose to try
to just grab all those votes. And Johnson has a
very non PC quote that has attributed to him about that,
(18:05):
But it was done for that reason. It wasn't ever
done to help anybody. By the way, who's your cell
phone provider? You need to remember to put your money
where your morals are all the time, and with your
cell phone, it's easy. There are hard There are hard
things about doing that. Putting your money where your morals are,
it's hard, but not for your cell phone. Pure Talk
(18:25):
now they're offering free phones iPhone fourteen or a Samsung
Galaxy when you sign up for a qualifying plan, a
free phone. Look at your phone right now. Look at
those cracks on the screen. You know what I'm talking about.
You know your phone is slowed down. It's just it's
time for something new. And when the average family saves
one thousand dollars a year by switching to Pure Talk,
(18:48):
doesn't that sound like something you want to do? Dial
pound two five zero and say Jesse Kelly. You'll take
ten minutes on the phone speaking to an American who
speaks English and they're pleasant. It's cake to switch switch
and you can look. If you don't want a new phone,
you can keep your phone, you keep your number. It's easy.
(19:10):
They make it easy pound two five zero, say Jesse Kelly.
We'll be back get the cure for rhinos. Week days
with the Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse Kelly
Show on a wonderful Friday. The freaking Europeans are so
dagone mad at jd Vance right now. It's miraculous all
(19:31):
these European leaders coming out today. I can't believe he
said that. I can't believe he said that. The German
guy gets up and says, oh, we can't like the Twitter.
Stop hurt our country and stop us. All these people
are just tyrants, all of them, every one of them.
They see themselves as kings and queens and they don't
(19:52):
want to be criticized. They don't want their policies criticized.
Like all filthy tyrants, they believe in control, they believe
in force, and man, it just did my heart so
well to c JD.
Speaker 5 (20:05):
Today, I looked to Brussels, where EU Commission commissars warned
citizens that they intend to shut down.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
He called them commissars.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
I'm dying dying social media during times of civil unrest,
the moment they spot what they've judged to be quote,
hateful content or to this very country where police have
carried out raids against citizens suspected of posting anti feminist
comments online as part of quote combating misogyny on the Internet.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Can you imagine how many years I would spend in
prison if I lived in a society where I couldn't
post anti feminist quot gay of action.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
I looked to Sweden or two weeks ago, the government
convicted a Christian activist for participating in Kuran burnings that
resulted in his friend's murder.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
He just stood in front of all of them and
burned them to their face.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
While the Trump administration is very concerned with European security
and believes that we can come to a reasonable settlement
between Russia and Ukraine, and we also believe that it's
important in the coming years for Europe to step up
in a big way to provide for its own defense.
The threat that I worry the most about visa e
(21:17):
Europe is not Russia, it's not China, it's not any
other external actor.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
And what I worry about is.
Speaker 5 (21:24):
The threat from within the retreat of Europe from some
of its most fundamental values, values shared with the United
States of America.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Go get them, Jesse o King of the Little Digits.
It's not nice. I don't get a chance to listen
to the show live, so I listen on Spotify. When
the ads come on, it's always an advertisement about hair regrowth?
Was that Chris's idea? His name is Corey. That's not
very nice. For one, Corey, did you write it that
in did court? Did producer Coy write in that email? Okay? One,
(21:58):
that's not very nice. Two. Remember, unless you hear my voice,
then that's an ad that your iHeart puts in there.
Though I control the ones that I'm voicing. I don't
own these air waves. Premiere does I Heart? Does they
allow me to use them? But maybe we could talk
(22:18):
to corporate about those hurtful hair replacement ants. Chris, No,
I don't want more of them. I don't want any
more of them. It hurts me. Everyone hurts me. Klay Travis,
that jerk was saying some really hurtful things to me
publicly about my hair. There was some article in the
New York Post about regrowing hair, and publicly he sent
(22:38):
it to me in front of everyone else. Not very nice. Jesse,
do you have a K bar? Do I need a
K bar? Are they still a good knife or are
they just cool? Have modern options made them obsolete? Okay,
so I'm not a knife expert at all. What is
a K bar? Chris? Are you serious? Okay? A k
(23:00):
bar is a knife. It's a military knife. They were
still issuing if your job required one. They were still
issuing k bars when I was in the Marines in
two thousand and four. Maybe they've phased that out for
something different. Have modern options made them obsolete? It's the
interesting question here. There are there superior knives today than
(23:24):
the k bar? Of course, of course, but there's a
nostalgic thing about k bar that I think you should
get one. That's one. Two. I don't have one, if
I'm being honest, and now I need to buy one.
I mean, I'll find a deal on one somewhere. I'll
get fun. I'll go to a gun show with something.
I'll get a deal on one. But two, I need one. Three.
(23:46):
I've got a little, a little k bar story for
you here. Marine Raiders. You ever heard of the Marine Raiders?
They're back, they exist now, but they first came around
during World War II. Who it's essentially the Marines version
of the Navy Seals, right, the Green Berets, it's their
special forces, the Raiders. Well, in World War two, Red
(24:10):
mike Etson, he really started training his raiders to go
get involved in the war in the Pacific, and they
ended up bouncing around the Pacific doing all this amazing
jungle fighting. Just the nastiest, toughest dudes like ever Marine
raiders and World War two in the Pacific, just amazing
human beings. Their original knife was known as a stalletto.
(24:35):
You can go look at pictures of it. Trying to
think the best way to describe it. A long, slender,
double edged blade that was pointy, very very pointy. On
the end the blade looks more like a very thin triangle,
so you look at it and you're like, wow, that
must be a very good stabbing weapon. Well, world War
(24:56):
two in the Pacific, because of the environment, because you're
always the jungle environment, it's hard to see, you end
up getting close to the enemy. And because of the
Japanese love and admiration for the blade for hand to
hand combat. Remember Japanese officers would routinely carry Samurai swords
(25:17):
with them. Yeah, I know, it is freaking cool, Chris,
It's pretty good anyway. They loved the blade. They admire
their Samurai history, and they loved hand to hand combat.
Because of the jungle and the Japanese love for the
blade and hand to hand combat, in the Pacific, there
was all kinds of hand to hand combat and it
(25:42):
had to be like the worst thing in the world,
And to hear guys describe it, it was you would
just find yourself. You're using your shovel, and he's got
a knife, and you're gonna sit there and you're gonna
brawl it out and see who can beat each other
to death. They will drop, They would drop into your
fighting hole with you at night to die, ready to die,
(26:02):
and they would just try to kill you and your buddy.
And you're having a knife fight in a fighting hole,
you and your buddy in two Japanese guys with knives
and fists in your bite. That it was not uncommon
at all hand to hand combat. The Marine raiders in
the Pacific did so much of it, so much hand
(26:23):
to hand combat, so much straight out of the movies,
sneaking up behind somebody and slipping a knife in between
his ribs or cutting his throat, that they decided they
needed a superior knife to the stiletto. They didn't think
the stiletto was doing it well enough, and so the Marines,
after they tried it, switched to the k bar because
(26:47):
the k bar was just better in their mind, for
stabbing people to death and for the other various things
they needed to use it with. Does that not make
the ke bar even cooler?
Speaker 6 (26:59):
The Marine raiders, the super specops type in World War
Two said, no, I don't like to cut people's throat
with this. I like to cut people's throat.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
With the k bar. Give me one of those. Isn't
that freaking cool? Hey, mister waffle House, does your hate
for mashed potatoes extend to grits? Absolutely not. Mashed potatoes
and grits are not even close to being the same
thing at all. Grits, Oh my gosh, shrimp and grits.
If you get some Cajun restaurants, there's all kinds of
(27:32):
great Cajun restaurants here in Houston. You get some good,
cheesy grits and then get what, Chris, what are you
looking at? What you people can eat that grits do
not suck? Why are you being Is this because I
brought up the shrimp? Chris? You can have kosher and
grits or something. I don't know. No, not all grits suck. No,
(27:52):
they're not do I like oatmeal. Grits are not oatmeal.
If you get cheesy grits that somebody has put some
time into, how can you sit and dog grits with
a straight face? Man, Some get some black and shrimp
or some cage and shrimp on some cheesy grits. Gosh,
I love that. My old man loved the grits, love
(28:13):
shrimp and grits so much. I miss him. Anyway, Go
get some gold. Countries around the globe. China's still doing
this stocking up on gold. Stop stocking up on gold.
They're already talking about, Hey, gold's gonna go up, Gold's
gonna go up. Federal Reserve chairmen out there saying interstrates
(28:34):
are not coming down. Read the tea leaves and go
to gold code for your gold. Because I trust them.
That's why they have an A plus rating with the
Better Business Bureau. That tells me everything I need to know.
They've won awards over the last decade. Go look at
their five star reviews, over six thousand of them. Three
(28:56):
bill in gold and silver. They've placed, get it in
your retirement in your retirement account so you don't get
wiped out, and get some in your physical possession. And
if you just want to learn more, they have a
twenty twenty five gold and silver kit they'll give you free,
so at least do that. Go to Jesse Likesgold dot
(29:20):
com and get their kit. Get some gold, get some silver.
I don't care what color it is. Just get something
to protect yourself. Or you can call them keep in
mind eight five five eight one seven gold or jesse
likes Gold dot com. All right, Trump's dealing with Zelenski
and all this Ukraine mess. Why bother the Jesse Kelly Show.
(29:42):
It's still real to me, Dammit the Tyrian stacks. It
is the Jesse Kelly Show. Final segment of The Jesse
Kelly Show. On a Friday of Valentine's Day. I have
to go spend some money on steak and stuff like that.
But she's worth it, and she's worth it. I love you, Princess.
It's gonna be an gonna be an expensive night. What
(30:03):
Chris what? Yeah? The food is gonna be good. The
food is gonna get We're just not steakhouses. Look, I
love a steakhouse as much as the next guy. And gosh,
I'm gonna make myself sound like Chris here and I
hate myself for this, but I really prefer a steakhouse
when someone else is buying. Like what, Chris, you understand
(30:25):
now that it's always some corporate event when you gotta
when I have to go meet the suits, I gotta
fly out of town that as soon as you get
to get with them them. I mean, it's it's it's
easier to order that steak that costs like sixty dollars
when you're on someone else's time. Just is I'm more
of a red lobster man. I'm more of a Little
(30:47):
Caesar's Pepperoni puffs. And you know what, it's not just me.
I told you I watched that Super Bowl and maybe
they've been doing this during the NFL games. I don't know.
I'ven't been watching, but I a commercial. I'm pretty sure
it was during the Super Bowl where they were advertising
the Pepperoni puffs for Little Caesars. What Corey did? I what?
(31:12):
I don't know if there's a bacon version of it, Corey,
but we should look into that as a show. We
should do some research not for you, Chris, Corey and
I can have bacon, Okay, Corey and I either way.
The pepperoni puffs that Little Caesar's are so good. And
if ob would just text me and say, hey, I'd
rather have Little Caesar's tonight, what Chris, I would be
(31:34):
okay with that. I would do that in a heartbeat.
But now she has her heart set on steak and
there's no one to pay for it, no one to
pay for it. Now it's just me, me, sixty dollars steak.
You know what I'll do. I won't get any appetizers.
I'll go appetizer free. I'm not even gonna get a salad.
And then ab will be like, you need a sound
(31:55):
because you can have your vegetables. You know how she
is with the hell stuff. And I'll act like like
I already had one at work. No, she'll never believe that. Anyway,
Let's do some couple more emails. Dear Jesse, Why should
Trump even waste his time talking to Zolensky. Isn't Zelensky
the reason he was almost impeached? Well, he has no
choice right now if you're going to bring the Ukraine
(32:17):
Russia war to an end then Zolensky has to be
part of that and he will bring it to an end.
I really do believe that now, because they both they
both sound like they want it, meaning Putin and Zelensky.
It was it was the Biden administration that was keeping
that whole thing going. Zelensky doesn't have the men, and
(32:37):
without America supplying the endless war, without US sending all
the crap we've been sending them, Zelensky can't He can't
keep going. And we don't like to talk about this
because very few people were rooting for Russia. You may
not be the biggest Ukraine fan. I may not be
the biggest Ukraine fan, but I don't know many people
(32:58):
who were rooting for Russia to invade and win and
things like that. We don't like. We don't like people
losing a war, but oftentimes, remember historically, when you lose
a war, it's not the end of the world. We
have a World War II version of what warfare looks like,
(33:20):
where no unconditional surrender, complete annihilation. We will reduce your
society to rubble and then we'll tell you how you
can go from there. But that's not the norm throughout history,
throughout history, when there is a war between tribes or nations,
they will go they will fight over something, land, something, whatever,
(33:42):
they fight over, and then there's a negotiated peace, a
negotiated peace. I'll take a little of this, you take
a little of that. Okay, you lost the war. I'm
gonna take a little bit of your land. I'm gonna
do this. I'm gonna That is how wars end, That's
how most wars end. And this war could have been
(34:04):
over a couple years ago. They were trying for a
negotiated peace, and for what I believe are a lot
of very very corrupt reasons, the West, the UK, and
America didn't want it to happen. I mean, you remember
I played you that clip from Tucker the other day.
Speaker 4 (34:21):
Second fact, fact, not guess fact is Ukrainian military is
selling a huge resentge up to half of the arms
that we send them half. And I'm not guessing about this.
I know that for a fact, a fact, okay, not speculation.
And they're selling it and a lot of us winding
up with the drug cartels on our border. So this
is the this is a crime. What's happening. Our intel
(34:43):
agencies are fully aware of this. You tell me they're
not profiting from this. Of course you think CA is
not profiting from this. I guess they are.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
We just keep sending all our people, all the Ukrainian people,
into the meat grinder, so they could keep washing money
and weapons and everything else over there, just to tear
I can't wait for it to end. I'm not Ukrainian,
I'm not Russia, and I have no affinity for either
of those countries. It just breaks my heart that many
young men getting butchered like that. And it breaks my
heart that you haven't found a good employee yet. I
(35:12):
hate that. I hate that you haven't gone to ZipRecruiter

ZipRecruiter dot com slash jesse. And now here's a headline.
Speaker 5 (36:10):
But you know, you know the thing emails we didn't
get to you.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Use trailer salesman. I'm buying a new motorcycle soon and
I need advice on how to negotiate a better price.
What are the dues? And don'ts save some cash? Oracle Well, first,
and this is gonna sound crazy, treat your salesman with
some respect. Hear me out on this. People love, especially dudes,
(36:41):
because it's a competition, and we view it as a competition.
Dudes like to present that face to people as if
the salesman who's trying to find you the motorcycle, as
if he's some ripoff artist, piece of trash, and he
maybe there are all kinds of scummy salesmen out there.
But if you treat him like crap, he's going to
treat you like crap back. I was a salesman RV
(37:04):
salesman for a few years. I was a sales manager
for a few years. I was pretty good at it.
If you treated me like crap, I would treat you
like dirt, and I would rip your head off on
the price too. You don't get to treat me like crap.
I'm a human being. However, if you were cool with me,
you know I have customers I sold RVs to I
(37:24):
will still text with to this day. If you were
cool with me, I'll go advocate for you to my
general manager to get you a better price. Be cool
with the salesman, see what it can do, and don't
ask for honeyed your bottom dollar price. Here's what you
say to him, Hey, I'm not paying full sticker on this.
(37:48):
Get me a fair price and I'll buy it today.
You let him know that you are there to buy,
that you have made a buying decision, and then you
put it on him to get you a fair price.
He's going to go back and he's gonna tell his
sales manager or his GM. Hey man, I got a
buyer I need you to help me out. Tell him
you're going to buy it today. Wait till you find
(38:09):
the one you want, and tell him you'll buy it today.
You get a good price. Go enjoy your husband, Enjoy
your wife, girlfriend, boyfriend on Valentine's Day, or if you're single,
enjoy being a feminist. I'll see on Monday. That's all
