Kilmeade. There seems to be no cure, they are calling it cultural dementia. Whenever one of their latest causes goes south. And myself, that includes fleeing new york for florida. [laughter] but they are, the media. Whatever they get is contagious, spreading faster than whoopis legs in a hotel pool. [audience reacts] there is a back straight to that joke so it was not just some kind of indiscriminate, disgusting comment. She did claim that she liked to have sex in pools. Direct your letters to her for that image. Do you remember the duke scandal . You are not supposed to. That is when a bunch of white frat boys were accused of raping a black stripper.

March, 2020. States are shutting down restaurants. Thats an Industry Sector that switched all. When you look at big moments like that, how do you face it . What do you do . It was so not in our play book. Major d was telling people i know youre used to this, but thats a remarkable thing to have on a constant basis. People have been waiting for four hours.
