Sony Music Drops Jelly Roll: “He’s bad for our bottom line” |EP925

[00:00:33] America Great Again! The Big Mig! Well, good morning, Rise and Grind. Of course, this is The Big Mig Show. I'm your host, Lance Miliacho. With my ride or die co-host, George Balentine. Of course, kill them with the truth and bury them with a smile is what this show is all about. Because you know, we're trying to educate and unify the country one episode at a time.

[00:00:59] And it's what we do every Monday through Friday, 11 a.m. Eastern Standard. George B., what's up, my brother? What's up is, may the bridges I burn light the way. Hey, mofos. That's what's up. Is that a new, is that a new T, bro? No, it's not new. I've had this. Funny. I don't remember that one. I don't know. I haven't worn it a lot. No? Hmm. People might be like, damn. Why is he burning so many bridges today? It can happen here on The Big Mig Show.

Help us get some new listeners and subscribers in here because that's what the show is all about. We've got to grow to get the word out because how the hell can we unify the country without really getting our voice bigger? All right. Listen, we've got a great new sponsor. Listen closely for anybody that's got the onset of cancer, is concerned about cancer, maybe has cancer in their family with a family member or a close friend.

[00:02:26] Something truly remarkable is happening in the world of cancer care just south of the U.S. border. Since 1963, Oasis of Hope Hospital in Tijuana has been quietly redefining what's possible for patients facing late-stage cancer. Their integrative approach, treating the body, the mind, and the spirit, has produced survival outcomes that far exceed standard American hospital averages, in some cases more than three times higher. You've got to listen to these numbers closer. They're actually unbelievable.

[00:02:54] For stage four cancer, I mean, the difference is striking. Their success rate, pancreatic, 25% versus 2% for, of course, the medical industrial complex. Melanoma, listen to this number. 75% success rate for Oasis of Hope versus 24% for the medical industry here in the U.S. Breast cancer for the ladies. This is a big win here for anybody that's got the onset of breast cancer. 75% success rate versus 24% for the United States.

[00:03:24] Prostate for the men, 50% for the men at Oasis of Hope versus 28% here in the U.S. And the pattern is clear. Patients at Oasis of Hope live longer than expected. And at the center of this extraordinary story is Dr. Francisco Contreras. We'll be having him on for an intro. Here at the end of the month, you're going to get to meet him in person. He's going to bring some great tips. You definitely want to tune in for that episode. World-renowned oncologist, author of 15 books. Wow.

[00:03:53] Medical director, a leading compassionate team dedicated to giving patients not just treatment, but hope. So if you or someone that you love is facing cancer, Oasis of Hope offers free Zoom consultations for anyone who mentions the big, big show. That's right. Free Zoom consultations. They'll take their time for you. They'll tell you if they think they can help you. You can go back and forth, figure out if there's a plan of action. And I believe you're going to be pleasantly surprised. We love these guys. We did our research.

[00:04:22] They are game changers. You have nothing to lose by exploring your options. Visit Oasis of Hope dot com. That's right. Oasis of Hope dot com. Don't go there right now, but go there right after the show. And we'll be putting a QR code up there shortly. George is going to get that done so we can actually have some tracking for you guys and make it easy for you. Oasis of Hope dot com. I think I need to come up with a jingle for that. You know, it's funny. Isn't it odd that I was expecting a jingle?

[00:04:53] I've got so used to it. I've been delayed. I just gave you the pause for the dinner. Oh, that's right. We don't have a jingle. You might need a jingle for that, George. But you might have to get a little music with it. Maybe get that friend of yours. It's that professional singer. I've got to come up with something, though, first. You know what? Let's see what the chat comes up with. If they can come up with a little jingle. Whoa. Like, you know, like the one we had for the prepper bar. All right, before we get further into the store, we got to do something here. Let me put it up.

[00:05:22] Today's the one year anniversary of Charlie Kirk's death. And, you know, we have to always remember Charlie Kirk and what he did. And, you know, this is why we do what we do, is keep fighting the crazy liberals and just people who can't see the light, I'm going to say. So, turning point, Charlie Kirk and his family, our prayers always go out to you. We will always continue to fight in honor of your legacy.

[00:05:56] It's sad. I can't believe it's already been a year. It's not to have been gone that long. He made such an impact in such a short period of time, really. I believe he had an incredible future. I think he would have made such a big difference here in the United States. I love that he was always trying to unify. You know, we try to do it through education. You know, the division in chaos is a tool of the deep state. They don't want a unified United States, but, yeah, RIP Charlie Kirk to him and his family. I mean, sad. A wife and children.

[00:06:27] All right. You know, if you fuck around, you're going to find out. I've said it so many times on this show. I've said it to you guys in the audience. I've talked to George about it. I just don't understand when professional athletes and actors and actresses feel the need to get involved politically. Soul is soul to the dark side, to the devil. You know, I'm surprised.

[00:06:54] To be honest with you, when I saw The Rock supporting Biden, I thought he was going to take a hit. He's one of the few that hasn't taken a hit. No. No. So here's the difference. We knew where The Rock stood, right? This dude, Jelly Roll, he was right there with Trump at some of the rallies, you know, all supporting with conservatives. And then he switched up. He did an okie doke.

[00:07:19] So I can respect The Rock because, you know, Rock, you know, he didn't switch or just do and throw him under the bus. He'll do it. If Rock's going to do it, he'll do it, you know, the way he does it. I don't know. But screw this bastard. That's kind of true, but we know where plenty of them stand. Robert De Niro, his movies are in the tank, I understand. People aren't even watching them on Netflix or Amazon. When Robert De Niro's in a movie, I understand people just turn him off. They don't click on his movies anymore because of all his rhetoric.

[00:07:48] But look, Jelly Roll's taking hits, man. First, he got kicked out by the Police Benevolence Association. I don't know if that's the correct name, but they kicked him off that he was going to headline for them at a Mar-a-Lago event. So he was out of there. Then he took a hit, started getting booted off a bunch of concerts he was booked on. He was opening for some big acts, and he got booted off of those. And now Sony Music drops Jelly Roll.

[00:08:17] I can't say it didn't happen to a better guy, but it's funny how they just come out of the gate and said, he's bad for our bottom line, George. Now, this is Sony Music Nashville. They just terminated his contract, citing concerns that the artist has become bad for our bottom line. Of course, this severs ties between the singer and one of the country music's largest labels. Marks the first time a major record company has dropped an artist for reasons explicitly unrelated to sales figures.

[00:08:47] So according to the documents obtained by journalist Joan Barrow, Sony's board determined that Jelly Roll's brand toxicity outweighed his commercial success, which included multiple platinum signals and a Grammy nomination. They said that his music was still selling. But they said the optics were bad. George, what are your thoughts on this? I think it's well-deserved. I'm happy he took the hit.

[00:09:15] I mean, maybe that's shitty of me to be happy about ill will on somebody. But I think he was just so... The fact that he went on Jimmy Kimmel Live and then that was the mode he went into, he could have done lots of other things. He didn't have to go down that road. Well, Jimmy Kimmel couldn't... Hold on. Jimmy Kimmel could now, you know, bankroll him if he wants. I mean, Jimmy Kimmel just destroyed the man's career. Or helped him destroy it. Jelly Roll's a man. He could make his own decision. He could have stood up for his morals and values, but he decided not to.

[00:09:45] I got no... I could care less. People like that are scum. Dude could drop dead tomorrow or bleed out in front of me. I'll let him bleed out. I won't even help him. Let him learn his lesson. Look, he divorced his wife, Bunny. Right? That's why. Because all of a sudden he lost weight and now he's feeling better about himself while that woman stood by him. He's a piece of shit right there. His restaurant in Nashville, nobody's going in there losing money. He's losing money everywhere. You know? What?

[00:10:15] Sony said it best. He's bad for our bottom line. Well, he's bad for the MAGA bottom line too now and the conservative bottom line. We don't want you. We don't need you. Yeah, I understand his restaurant that was doing very, very well is completely empty now. Yeah. Nobody's going in there. Yeah. So a music analyst, Jeb Nauru, called Sony's decision courageous in its own terrible way.

[00:10:42] You know, and he did note that Sony had stood by artists through DUIs, domestic violence allegations, and public meltdowns. They kept Chris Brown for years. They kept R. Kelly until it became legally impossible. But Jelly Roll? Yep. He got cracked. Interesting. I think it's good. I appreciate the fact that Sony stood up. They said it was purely business determination.

[00:11:10] Definitely not because we got 47 angry emails from people who haven't bought music since 2003. So it isn't the music sales. It's the general brand tech toxicity. Yep. So Jelly Roll has now been labeled toxic. I think he's done. I don't know if you can recover from this, George. What do you think? Is it even possible, even if he came out with a public apology? I don't know if anybody would buy the apology. They'd think it was because of his money.

[00:11:40] Even if he came out and publicly apologized, it wouldn't mean shit to me. It wouldn't mean nothing. For something like that, it's going to take time, and his actions will dictate what happens and how people will treat him. But you could just apologize, and nobody should just, all right, now I'm going to listen to him this and that. No. Don't give him the benefit of doubt. Make him earn it. I'm going to ask the chat. What do you think the odds are?

[00:12:09] I don't think he will apologize. I think he's going to double down, and he's going to be angry about what happened with Sony. I don't think he has the balls. I don't think he's man enough to apologize. Maybe Jimmy Kimmel should bring him on, and they could discuss it. Jimmy Kimmel's done, though, isn't he? How many more shows does he have? Isn't he out of there? I don't know. You know, they cry for him. Is he out? I don't know. Yeah, his numbers are all down, and yeah, and I think he's done. Yeah, but the liberals kept crying, so they're holding on to this. Huh?

[00:12:38] His last show, I think, is coming up very shortly, if it hasn't already happened. I saw some stuff on social media. I don't watch Jimmy Kimmel, so I could give a shit. I think he sucks. So, you know, it is what it is. All right. I don't know what he did. I'm looking it up right here. Jimmy Kimmel, when's his last show, Joe? Hold on. I'll drink some branch tea. Oh, no. His current deal runs through the end of the 2026-2027 television series. Oh, okay.

[00:13:08] So he's still going. All right. I don't know what to think of this. I mean, hippies. You know what would have been great? Yeah. If, you know, if they wanted Jelly Roll to do all that and his first night he just didn't listen and let him think he was and just do the opposite. That would have been great. That would have propelled him. Yeah. That would have been a boss move, but, you know, he's a fucking soy boy. What do you expect? Yeah. I don't know what to think right now, man. About what?

[00:13:35] I'm disappointed about what President Trump announced here. Is it, hold on, is it Jelly Roll or Taylor Jelly? Yeah. That's Mike Schwartz. Yeah, exactly. He's feeling some type of way because I put the video of him eating fucking buffalo wings with a fork and knife. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But, you know, is it? I don't know. It's probably, in the case of Jelly Roll, it's probably the roll. Hmm? I'm going with pork roll for Jelly Roll.

[00:14:06] What? Pork roll? I'm going with pork roll. Fuck, you know. You don't even know what you're talking about. I don't. I know. It doesn't mean that I won't talk. So you're going with the soy boy? That says a lot about you, Lance. No, no. Now it explains a lot, bro. I'm saying. Let me just mute you. What? We can't hear you. I'm saying he's a Jelly Roll. All right. Let's talk about President Trump. I don't know what to think of this, man, George. I don't know what you think of it. Maybe Mike Schwartz can tell us in the comments what he thinks of this.

[00:14:34] This announcement makes me uneasy. Well, yeah. It's stupid. So Trump, this is yesterday. He's on his way to the RNC midterm convention in Texas. You know, reporters are asking, you know, questions and stuff. Rightfully so. They asked him about Iran. Iran. And he said that the war in Iran will end immediately after the 2026 midterm.

[00:15:02] Saying Iran's whole game plan was to use election as leverage. Well, you dumbass. If they succeed, you're going to lose the House and Senate. And then it's going to be you and your administration up on the chopping block. I mean, just fucking annihilate them. Annihilate Iran right now and get it over with. Show you're the boss before the midterms. And then get our gas prices low. I mean, first of all, we're not at war, right? It's not declared a war. That's number one.

[00:15:31] Because that poor lady who lost her husband, soldier, she wasn't getting benefits. Because it's not a war. Yeah. So that's number one. But, I mean, didn't Trump say we beat them? They're done. They have no military or nothing. Meanwhile, they're still shooting rockets. They're doing stuff now in Pickaxe Mountain over there. I suppose they got imagery that they're rebuilding or something or doing something.

[00:16:00] I mean, right. Let them build up again while we talk words and then they start firing stuff at either us or other countries. Well, I mean, just end it. I thought we were going to hit Karg Island. What happened to that? Listen, I just want to hit Iran, the regime, and IRGC. That's all we got to do. I don't understand what we're doing there. You know, I'll be honest with you, Lance. If you hit Karg Island, hold on. I know oil will go up. I know.

[00:16:30] If you hit Karg Island. Yeah. So they should seize Karg Island. That's what they should do. Okay. But what about the Bitcoin mining? What's going to happen if they hit the Bitcoin mining? Nothing. Okay. So why don't they hit the Bitcoin mining? Why don't they hit the IRGC? The whole military in itself. I saw something the other day that said that Iran had even increased their Bitcoin mining, and it was possible that they were doing somewhere between almost 7% of the current hash rate in Bitcoin mining.

[00:16:59] But they had actually increased their Bitcoin mining. So explain to me why Donald Trump isn't hitting the Bitcoin. Why is he leaving them with that cash flow? Can anybody in the audience explain that to me? Because I'm fucking stumped. And I don't understand. We've had a lot of reports coming out of people in the intelligence community. They've told us that it doesn't matter if he's got the Strait of Hormuz locked up and they're blocking any kind of, like, military support because they're driving in the military support through the east of Iran. They always have. There's tons of roads, tons of byways.

[00:17:29] They've got tunnels. They're doing that. I don't understand why we're not just hammering all those roads and bridges into oblivion. I just can't figure out. I feel like we're one toe in, one toe out. Does anybody in the audience feel like this? Because I think here's my opinion about a fight. Includes war. If you're going to step off the curb, there's only one goal to absolutely obliterate your opponent. If I'm going to get into a fight, I'm not just trying to stop the fight. I'm trying to end it.

[00:17:56] I mean, I'm not trying to just stop for a minute and go, OK, are we done? I don't do that. If I'm in a fight, you can count on the fact that I'm going to do it right till that person is unable to fight because you can't take a chance. Lots of people stop. And then the next thing they know, something awful happens. So I'm telling you, this doesn't make any sense to me. So, you know, when Trump was running for president again, he made a lot of promises and stuff. And some things he's gone through, like the border and stuff, immigration is cleaning it up.

[00:18:23] But there's a lot of stuff with the deep state and 2020 election and Russia hoax. You know, there's nothing yet. Hopefully there'll be some. But, you know, you can't promise stuff and ask us to take your word for it. I'm sorry. But like he just said at the event last night, he was about giving $5,000 checks to every adult American. So is it $500 or $5,000? It's $5,000. Let me finish.

[00:18:53] Let me finish. Just quiet. It's $5,000. It's $5,000. And OK, so now he's trying to buy everybody. But how do we know we're going to get to $5,000 after the midterms? I mean, we didn't get other stuff you said. I didn't see the 10% credit card interest rate cut, the 10%. I know Lance was upset about it. I'm upset about that. It was back in February, March. That's just one thing. That would have been a windfall for Americans, 10% mandatory credit card interest for a year.

[00:19:21] Everybody could have paid down their credit card debt. It would have been a windfall. And all that extra money would have gone into the economy. I think that was a huge fuck up. And he promised you guys. He said, we're going to do it for the anniversary, 10% credit card interest. Nothing. You know, I don't like it. Let me say something to you. What about our national debt? What is anybody doing to fix that? You know, I was watching one of the money shows. They were talking about, yeah, if they raise, oh my God.

[00:19:49] What's our, I can't even think. Forget it. I'll come up. It's cool. Come to me later. I'm drawing a blank. Okay. Sorry. Well, here's the deal. They're not doing anything about the national debt. They're not doing anything about the IRS. We've talked about that many times. We heard some inferences about payroll tax and things like that. Remember, tax was supposed to be temporary. It wasn't supposed to be permanent income tax. That was a temporary solution. Of course, the government got used to sucking on that tit and they never stopped. And they misuse our money.

[00:20:19] What about the arrests for all the USAID? I thought we were going to have a bunch of arrests. Elon Musk said arrests are imminent. 14 magic money computers. What about the arrests for that shit? I mean, they are stealing from the American public blind. If you did it, you'd be indicted. I'd be indicted. They wouldn't even wait. They'd be kicking in my door right now for me. They don't like me. I guarantee you that they would come after me instantly if they thought that I had run a scam. And you've seen the billions and billions of dollars getting stolen. Why aren't we clawing that back?

[00:20:48] Why does Chelsea Clinton, who did nothing for the country, why was she given $84 million by USAID? How about Bill Kristol being paid $8 million a year by USAID to post? See, this is what I don't get. Why is it that none of that money is getting clawed back? Why do we still have George Soros and his NGOs getting money? He's a piece of shit. Why is Reid Hoffman still walking around? What about Mark Zuckerberg and his $460 million Zuckerbucks to subvert our elections?

[00:21:17] See, this is my thing. I don't understand. There's laws on the books for everything that we just mentioned there. Look at the news right now. Mike Flynn, friend of George and ours. Okay, you guys know it. Look at Mike. More information came out. The FBI lied. No shit. The DOJ lies every day in cases. How come no DOJ prosecutors are getting arrested? That's what I want to know. How come no FBI agents are getting arrested? See, this is the thing. They should be arrested just as much as anybody else.

[00:21:46] All the guys that were going to put stuff into the burn bags and the skiffs, that's destruction of evidence. Obstruction of justice. Why aren't we arresting? What about the Bidens in Burisma? Hunter Biden is talking about, I mean, Hunter Biden, which we'll be talking about a little bit in the show. He's still running his mouth. Now he's talking about running for president. Un-fucking-believable. I mean, of course, he's a scumbag, so he's perfect for the Democrats to run for president. He can say whatever he wants. No, but my point is, how does a guy run all the scams he ran and he's not arrested?

[00:22:16] But you and I would get arrested for the same shit. Human trafficking, all that stuff. I mean, for God's sakes, the guy brought drugs into the White House. We know that bag they found of cocaine was his in the White House. I mean, we know it. I'm sure they could have got DNA off the bag, but no, no, no. See, this is my thing. When do the when do government officials face the consequences for being criminals? I just I don't we were promised that drain the swamp government gangsters. I just listen. Here's the thing.

[00:22:46] There are many things that Donald Trump and I voted for Donald Trump and I love Donald Trump. But don't tell me you're going to do something and then not do it. Don't tell me you're going to drain the swamp and it doesn't happen. Don't tell me you're going to arrest the government gangsters and it doesn't happen. All right. Let's play. The intelligence agents have been guilty and there are many people in the Department of Justice that are guilty. And I believe a lot of these judges are guilty. I think they're conspiring behind the scenes. Yeah, let's play the clip, George. We're going to find out.

[00:23:14] I think the war is going to end immediately after the election. I think the war will end immediately after the election because they can't hold out any longer. They're desperate to try and affect the election so that we can get a nice weak group of people in there and leave them alone and let them have their nuclear weapon. All they want is a nuclear weapon. And if they had a nuclear weapon, the whole world is in deep trouble. Are you still hoping for a nuclear deal?

[00:23:43] Secretary Wright said a nuclear deal might not be on the table anymore. No, I'm doing much more than a nuclear deal. There's a lot more than nuclear. We're going to have nuclear. That's 99.9, but there's going to be a lot of other things on the table that wouldn't have been on the table three months ago. What about negotiations with the law? Do you expect that to be started? We're not looking for it, to be honest with you, Jeff. Originally, I wanted to make a deal. We're so far down the line.

[00:24:14] They have very little country left, right? Hmm. Here's another one now. Another clip. Trump is insisting gas prices will fall below $2 a gallon after the mid-turns, saying the current prices, high prices, are the cost of keeping Iran from attaining a nuclear weapon. Well, hold on a second. He just had all the oil executives in his office, in Oval Office, a few days ago, telling them to stop price gouging. Here's the problem.

[00:24:44] They don't feel like Trump used to be able to throw some words, and they'd be scared because he would act upon those words. Well, he'd look at, like, Iran. We're going to bomb this. We're going to do this. But he's not doing it. So why would anybody listen to him now? He's losing some credibility. And look at all the oil companies, how many billions they made already so far this year. They can cut their cost of profits and let the American people live, but no.

[00:25:12] Fucking shit's like $4.13 a gallon. I just put gas this morning. It's crazy. Yeah, my last gas was $3.86. So it was a little bit less than yours, but that was maybe a week and a half ago. Yeah, no, it went up. Yeah. I don't know. Let's play it. And, Mr. President, you've been saying for weeks that oil and gas prices are going to come down. Oil is now back above $100 a barrel. How do you explain this to Americans who are wondering when prices are going to come down? Well, I think it's very easy to explain to America.

[00:25:41] All you have to do is say, will you let Iran have a nuclear weapon? And the answer is no. And they're doing very poorly. Their country is in shambles right now. They are, as you probably have seen, the numbers, 300 percent inflation. Their money is valueless. They're not paying their soldiers. We control the strait and lots of other things. And so for a little while, I would say this. Shortly, but right after the election, because they'd like to have it that way.

[00:26:10] But right after the election, oil prices are going to be tumbling downward. They're going to be tumbling down and we'll get them down. I think for gasoline, we'll get them below $2 a gallon. I mean, we made a deal with Venezuela to get so many millions of barrels of oil. Yet we're still paying crazy prices. We're the number one producer, energy. Hold on. We're the number one producer, energy producer. Yet us Americans, we're still paying high prices.

[00:26:40] Makes no sense. Well, you know, again, I love Donald Trump. I voted for him. I just want, in my opinion, your word is your bond. So if you tell me something, if you tell me there's 10% interest, if you tell me that the Russian collusion, most people are going to face consequences.

[00:26:59] I think at this point, Mike Flynn and Roger Stone, George Papadopoulos, they all need a big, huge payout from the federal government, as do many Americans that have been damaged by the Department of Justice, the FBI and others. There's many others. I mean, look at the, of course, people like Enrico, Enrique Terrio. Think about what they did to those guys. They've got a new documentary out. I'm going to try to get them on here and talk about that documentary here in the next couple of years. Documentary what?

[00:27:27] About what happened to them and how they destroyed their lives. So let's talk about more bad news for Tylenol. You know, they faced some other stuff not too long ago. Now this is awful. So I guess Tylenol, if used during pregnancy. Allegedly. Has now been linked with uterus ovary changes in the daughters of the women.

[00:27:53] Smaller ovarian and uterine volume and fewer ovarian follicles seen in babies exposed in the womb to acetaminophen, the main ingredient in Tylenol. In utero exposure to acetaminophen, also called paracetamol, I guess, had previously been linked with reproductive organ changes in animal studies. There are going to be long-term follow-ups, but this is disturbing, which would, of course, affect our birth rates.

[00:28:22] Female reproductive organ development, and this came out of Reuters, by the way, may be impacted by a mother's use during pregnancy of Tylenol or its generic versions. According to researchers who emphasize that their study does not prove the pain medicine is to blame and does not indicate any effect on future fertility. Well, I can't imagine how it wouldn't affect future fertility if your uterus is smaller and you have less urine follicles. I don't know. This is a Danish study on infants. What's going to be the impact on fertility rates?

[00:28:52] Your guess is as good as mine. So frightening stuff for any ladies out there that are planning on getting pregnant or otherwise. Be very cautious about what you put in your bodies. It would be affecting the lives of your children in the future. Does this make this more credible about Tylenol since a liberal outlet, Reuters, put this out? Because when Trump and Kennedy spoke about it, they got crucified. Yeah. Anybody crucified Reuters today? Reuters. I don't know. Reuters. Yeah, Reuters, not Reuters. Sorry, Reuters.

[00:29:21] Yeah, Reuter, Reuter. No, somebody put Reuters in the chat and it just made me think. Yeah. Yeah. Frightening. But you have to be cautious. You know, there's a lot of things. You know, we love alternative medicine on this show. You know that. That's why we hooked up with Oasis of Hope. Because we know there's a lot of things. People have been getting incredible results with ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, you know, menbenzadol. You know, there's a lot of things out there. Definitely want to keep your options open just because you're talking to a doctor about something. You know, AI is incredible.

[00:29:51] Do your research. You know. There are so many amazing things out there. Minnie Ball just said something in the chat and I got to say it. Because she just said, remember all the weirdos that were downing Tylenol laughing? I wonder, are they going to be downing Tylenol now? Yeah. Yeah, they were chugging it out of the bottle, which couldn't be good for you even if it didn't have any side effects. I don't think you should ever take medicine like that. But you have to be cautious. Listen, I used to take ibuprofen a lot years ago whenever I had inflammation when I was working out. You know, I had issues.

[00:30:20] You know, I hurt my back or something. I won't even touch that stuff anymore. I won't use ibuprofen at all because of what it does to your stomach lining at all. And some people, as an example, people are talking about H. pylori bacteria in your stomach lining. I don't know if you know this, but you can use mastic gum capsules. And H. pylori, I guess, has been linked to so many bad things. And if you want to repair your stomach lining, people are saying that the peptide BPC-157 will repair your stomach lining.

[00:30:48] Even people with colitis have been using BP-157 and getting some crazy results. None of this is medical advice. I just read a lot. I love peptides. I'm using them now myself and getting some crazy results. Unbelievable stuff. George, you're taking peptides too, right? I'm off cycle right now, but yeah. Okay. Yeah. Well, you got to go off and on. It's the same thing. But I'm a guy that took steroids. Steroids. I'll admit it up front. I took steroids years ago. I used to be a big, big, big guy. Back then, I got up to 254 pounds. I was about at my lowest.

[00:31:18] I was probably about 9% body fat. But I was a big, big guy back then. But the steroids aren't so great for you. As you guys know, they have some side effects. So I don't take any more steroids. Side effects like what? Well, there's a lot of things, George. Enlarged hearts. Just a lot of different things that aren't great. You know, so a lot of those side effects. It's a muscle organ. They say there's a lot of them. So a lot of those side effects comes if you're over, if you're abusing the drug. Just like they say, Roy rage.

[00:31:45] You just take, like, test, like, test testosterone therapy. You're not going to get Roy rage. But if you start taking, like, double chipping amounts, yeah, that could happen. Side effect and all that stuff. So. Well, I used a lot. So I'll just say it like that. So I don't do it anymore. I mean, you get rage just without anything. So I can't, I can imagine. You know, I did have a couple of moments of rage. You have it now, bro. Yeah. Well, you know, listen, I'm angry for the country. You know, it's hard for me. I harbor stuff.

[00:32:15] I'm not talking with everyone. Let's just go to break. All right. We're going to take a short break. George is going to cut me off here. Listen, stay tuned. We're going to be right back. We're going to be talking about James Tallarico trying to walk it, walk it back. I'm walking back. I'm just trying to walk it back. It's not going to work. It doesn't work like that. It won't work for Jelly Roll. It's not going to work for Tallarico. Stay tuned. The Big Men Show will be right back with George Balentine, Lance Migliaccio. Take the live link. We're on the break. Share it on your own social media. Let's get more people into the chat.

We'll be right back.

[00:33:23] Something truly remarkable is happening in the world of cancer care, just south of the U.S. border. Since 1963, Oasis of Hope Hospital in Tijuana has been quietly redefining what is possible for patients facing late-stage cancer. Their integrative approach, treating the body, mind, and spirit, has produced survival outcomes that far exceed standard American hospital averages. In some cases, more than three times higher. The pattern is clear.

[00:33:51] Patients at Oasis of Hope often live longer than expected. At the center of this extraordinary story is Dr. Francisco Contreras, world-renowned oncologist, author of 15 books, and medical director leading a compassionate team dedicated to giving patients not just treatment, but hope. If you or someone you love is facing cancer, Oasis of Hope offers free Zoom consultations for anyone who mentions the Big MIG show. You have nothing to lose by exploring your options.

Here's your typical politician. Typical politician. They tell you everything you want to hear, but do the opposite. Or they want to change their game because they got caught up. And did James Talika, who's running for Senate in Texas, a Democrat. Now he's walking back his claim. First, he said there are six genders, right?

[00:36:50] Six genders. Now he's saying he's coming up with excuses. I mean, only an idiot's going to believe that. Because as soon as he get in, he's going to go back to what he's saying. Oh, yeah, there is six genders. Ah, you know what? I made a mistake or whatever. Whatever. It's crazy. All the stuff he's getting called upon, he's walking it back now. I mean, why not stand and hold your ground, bro? I'm tired of these dumbass politicians.

[00:37:20] And, you know, I hope, like, listen, Texas is supposed to be a red state. I can't believe he's even, if he's leading in the polls or where he's at in the polls. Or the polls are just wrong. Or Republicans are not just going for the polls. Whatever. But it would be a sad day in America when this dude gets in. Same thing with that dude Abdullah in Michigan. He's another one trying to walk back stuff. That's, you know, their MO. He was asked about this claim. And it was in 2021.

[00:37:49] He's talking about six biological sexes. He even said about the borders should be open. Did he say now they should be closed? I mean, he was crying about legislation about transgender and school sports. I don't know. Now he's against it. You want to know how stupid he is, Lance? He said modern science recognized six biological sexes. What modern science? You can't.

[00:38:18] Science is stuff that's proven. It's there. Can't alter the science to fit your narrative. That's what they do. Oh, let me just add another XXYC, whatever they want to call it. If you have, what is it? What is it? XY and XX? Is that what it is? I should, I would like to ask them. Well, for the other four genders, what's the initials? What do you got? LGBTQ? Yeah, but you have to think of it the way he did this. He listed chromosomal disorders.

[00:38:48] That's what you're talking about. And he talked about, he made a statement. Biologically speaking, scientifically speaking, sex is a spectrum and oftentimes can be very ambiguous. Now, this is a guy that was arguing against protecting female athletes. Honestly, he needs to be made part of the slap-a-ho tribe. This guy needs a crack across the face. I like that slap-a-ho. Yeah. That's a good one. Slap-a-ho tribe. I'm just tired of the bullshit like this. You know what I mean? I'm like, listen, I want to protect female athletes.

[00:39:17] A bunch of them have been injured from men in sports. You get subpar male athletes that all of a sudden say they're transgender. And then all of a sudden they just start crushing it in the female professional sports world or athletic college sports world. It's horrible. What does that say for our young daughters, right? And our young grandchildren. You know, here they are working their little butts off. And they've got aspirations to become, you know, to get a college scholarship, to become a professional athlete.

[00:39:47] And what do we do? We crush their dreams because we're going to let some guy go in there, act like he's a woman. You know what I mean? Like that one swimmer did. And then they just get crushed. And it just doesn't make any sense to me. And people like Tallarico, my God, please. We don't need any more shitty politicians. We already got a herd of them in D.C. And that means we got Democrats and Republicans. Look at John Thune. He just got booed off the stage. I mean, he just got booed like crazy at that GOP. I guess they called it Trumpapalooza.

[00:40:16] I just I don't know. He says he's missed the mark. No, he didn't miss the mark. You're full of shit. You took that position because you thought that your voters would be happy about it. The dude, he rented a truck to try to look more texting. Yeah. To put in his ads and stuff. He's get the fuck out of here. I'm tired of shit. We want to talk about diesel and everything else. Grocery prices, you know. But meanwhile, the problem is he wants the borders open, let all them in. This way they can get more money.

[00:40:44] But then we start paying for it all and stuff goes up. Yeah. Nice. We don't need any more shitty politicians in D.C. We don't need any shitty Republicans or Democrats. We don't need any of them. I'll be honest with you. Somebody said, how do we fix it? I'm starting to believe that the founders and framers were right. I'm not sure we can fix it. Maybe the only option at this point is civil war. I don't know. I hate to say that, but I'm starting to wonder if this is fixable. Because if this administration doesn't drain the swamp. We don't need a civil war. We need a revolutionary war, bro.

[00:41:13] Well, I'm going to say this. If this administration, if this particular administration doesn't drain the swamp, doesn't arrest all these people, and doesn't get rid of all these government gangsters in one fell swoop, it will never happen unless the American people take to the streets. But that's not civil war. That's revolutionary against the government, dude. Okay. That's the civil wars against other citizens like, you know, like the Civil War, North against South. All right, let's play the clip.

[00:41:40] In the 2021 hearing, you said there are six biological sexes. Do you still believe that, standing here with me right now? No. I've missed the mark on some of my past statements. I will be the first to admit it. What I meant is that there are two sexes, and then there's a small percentage of people with genetic abnormalities. I obviously didn't say it correctly. There are not six sexes. There are two.

[00:42:03] And I think the reason that politicians in that convention center across the street want to talk about six sexes is because they don't want to talk about $6 diesel. Everywhere I go across the state of Texas, people are struggling to survive in this economy. They are struggling to afford the basics. Groceries, gas, utilities, health care. And that's what I'm going to be focused on from now until election day. So just to nail it down, here, standing with me, you can confidently say there are two sexes, a man and a woman. Absolutely.

[00:42:33] Response fee to voters who listen to this and they say, you know, he had this stance. This seems like a drastic 180 from what we've heard from him in the past. Is he just trying to get our vote and then once he governs, he's going to govern as a progressive? I would look at my legislative history. You shouldn't believe anything a politician says, whether it's me or Ken Paxton. You should look at what we've done. And if you look at Ken Paxton's history, he has spent his entire career enriching himself on the public's dime. Since taking office, he has increased his net worth by 7,000%.

[00:43:02] He now owns 15 homes on a government salary. It's why he was impeached by his own party for bribery. He was acquitted by the Senate, but I want to move on to our next question for you. Yep, he was acquitted. So, you just said it. Don't believe politicians. Well, we don't want to believe you either. So go kick fucking rocks. What's up, Sergeant Justice? How you doing? He's in the chat. Hey, welcome. Welcome, Sergeant Justice. We need to bring justice.

[00:43:32] I like it. This is the Donald Trump I like. I've got to be honest. Hold on. I'm a New Yorker. I like sarcasm. I like edgy humor. I like a guy that brings the rain and the pain. This is the Donald Trump I support. I just wish he'd do more of it to the government gangsters in the deep state. He just ended James Tallarico's career, many people are saying, because it looks like Tallarico wanted to beat his meat or beat meat, I should say.

[00:44:01] Donald Trump might be getting himself in trouble. I'm sure he's going to get a lecture when he gets off stage. But I don't think he deserves a lecture. This is one of those things that when he's funny and he nails it. This is the guy that I love. He described himself as a person who hates Christianity, says that God is transgender. He called the American flag a complicated symbol of hate, claimed that the Ten Commandments are a form of fascism.

[00:44:31] And when he was asked what he loved most in the world, he said, I love transgender children. He was also somebody that hated eating meat. But he ran a campaign to beat meat. He called it beat meat. I don't know what the hell he meant by that.

[00:44:58] These people are going to tell me what the hell is he wants to beat meat. But it was bad for his image. So he started eating meat. And he recently it's getting worse. I'm getting myself in trouble. Getting worse.

[00:45:24] But he was recently seen having a barbecue and eating a lot of meat. But that's what happened. He ate it. And then he was seen running backstage to a room and throwing up all over the place. He doesn't like meat. He also loved wearing masks. And he was seen wearing a mask just a short number of months ago.

[00:45:49] Any guy in Texas that's wearing a mask a few months ago, this is not going to be your senator. It's not going to work out. Not going to work out. So getting back, freedom loving patriots of Texas are going to defeat Tala Frico and elect Ken Paxson to protect the lone starster.

[00:46:18] That's classic. Listen, that's fucking some funny shit right there. Beaten in meat. You know what? I was shocked and surprised for this one. Pleasantly surprised. Can you believe Senator John Fetterman gave a video message at the RNC midterm backing Republican Senator Dave McCormick in Pennsylvania? I was like, what? I got to tell you. You know, the Democrats got to be rolling. I would love to get John Fetterman on the show.

[00:46:46] And I would publicly apologize to him. When I first saw this guy show up and he showed up in his shorts and his hoodie, I was like, who the frick is this guy? What is this? Where did they find this dude? And I have to tell you something. This is what I mean. You can't, you know, the D and the R don't mean anything. Here's a guy that I think really cares about the country, cares about the American people. And he's willing to put his reputation on the line by not going along blindly with Democrats because he wants the right things for the country.

[00:47:14] This guy, I would owe him an on-air apology because when I first saw him, I thought, what is this guy? But I got to tell you, now, I love his hoodie. I'm going to tell you something this guy brings. His hoodie? What's he wearing? He always wears hoodies and shorts a lot of times. In the very beginning, I thought, this is ridiculous. And now I got to tell you, I just, I'm embracing this guy in a way. And let me ask you a question, George, in the audience, too. Has a Democrat ever given a video message at any RNC event ever in the history of politics?

[00:47:43] Now, this is a guy that's trying to stop the division chaos, in my opinion. And so I have to tell you, I think he's a good guy, man. He seems to be the real deal. Well, listen, he's all right, but he still votes a lot with the Democrats, too. Yeah. So, but surprisingly, he's probably doing this so, because, you know, I think Democrats are going to try to do everything they can to get rid of him when it's time for his re-election. Yeah. But listen to the message. Or should we be calling this the uniparty, Lance, and worry more?

[00:48:13] That's another question. You know what would be great for him? If he got re-elected and then he flipped to Republican. Ha ha ha. Right there and just flipped the seat like, bam. Yep. Maybe. Here we go. Hey, a groom of Republicans in Dallas. Yes, I'm Senator John Fetterman, Pennsylvania. Yes, I'm a Democrat. Why am I here talking to you today? Because, well, I'm a common sense Democrat. I'm always going to stand with America.

[00:48:40] I'm always going to reject the extremes in socialism and that anti-American way of life. Dave McCormick is the kind of senator that gets the job done, and he's going to fight for Pennsylvania. I'm proud to count him as my friend. Right back over my shoulder, that's the iconic U.S. steel mill. And that's exactly the kind of thing that will work together and will work with President

[00:49:07] Trump to fight and defend the steel way of life right here in the Steel Valley. I have this opportunity to introduce this great American, a great senator, and yes, he's in a different party, but I'm proud to count him as my great friend. So for everybody in Dallas, I'm here to introduce Dave McCormick. Okay, Dave. I got to give him credit. He is a common sense guy, in my opinion, most of the time. I don't know.

[00:49:37] You know, I want people in government, right? I want people in our executive branch to care about the country. That's what I want. I don't believe in the political party thing. I think it's all nonsense. All right. This is a big story, George. Tell me what happened here on the U.S. It is. This has been going on like crazy, by the way. It is. All kinds of Asians. So U.S. cracked down and they seized 52 million from Chinese-linked crypto scam network.

[00:50:04] I just want to, before we get further in the story, how much more Chinese scams and stuff that this country is going to allow before our administration does something about it, does something to China? This is Janine Pirro, U.S. attorney for D.C. The dude, she was targeting Zimby Guarantee. I guess that's how you say it. A platform where vendors sell tools for fake investment sites, money laundering, recruiting trafficking workers for scam factories in Southeast Asia.

[00:50:33] Treasury Department stepped in. They sanctioned the group, blocking U.S. dealings, while the Scam Center strike force restrained funds across dozens of wallets. So they said they're pushing total recoveries to 938 million. We'll see. Weird. We'll see what happens. But, you know, if it's too good to be true, it's too good to be true a lot of times. There's a second part of this story. We're going to play this clip and Lance is going to take over because Lance got a doozy.

[00:51:01] ...before run by transnational criminal organizations. They are stealing, conning, and scamming Americans out of their life savings. And since that time, we've made enormous strides in fighting a previously unknown and unidentified network of overseas criminals who are focused on us and our money. This is not a distant overseas crime story.

[00:51:28] It is an industrial extraction of American savings run by Chinese transnational criminal enterprises and platforms. It is an extraction of American savings run by these organized crime groups using United States platforms, United States banks, and United States victims as the product.

[00:51:54] This is a generational wealth transfer from Main Street America to Chinese organized crime. And it is done via a slave labor industry in the compounds. So Americans are being industrially looted, and the people doing the looting are creating factories to facilitate their con.

[00:52:16] The factories are primarily in Southeast Asia, and they are now moving across the globe because they know we're coming for them. And they are staffed with human-trafficked labor. These are not basement scammers. These are factories. They are compounds that have quotas, shifts. They beat the people working there, and they even have balance sheets.

[00:52:43] And because of how many of these people are used to do, they are trying to find ways that they can make it so they can get rid of the people working. And that, in the past, is, for everybody, and that's what the reason is that, is, is they have бар-inflation of freedom for democratic violence, not that's what we're going to do. And the гораздо, that's what makes it so we got into detail. This is to provide pride to come to Congress and Congress. And the on-party, I'm calling the president. Microsoft, its fault, on the left side of the putin' law and our mission is that those people have never had in the coming days.

[00:53:13] scam one way or another. They are repeatedly trying to rip you off. They are in Southeast Asia, and there are hundreds of, as I said, industrial scale scam compounds. And the estimates put their earnings at about $40 billion a year. That is $40 billion from unwitting victims.

[00:53:38] And according to the Department of State, $12 billion alone is from Americans. Yet the truth is that most victims don't even file a report. They don't know who to report the crime to, and they're either too embarrassed or too ashamed. And so we don't even know the extent of this kind of crime. But last week, I spoke to two victims of scams that we are investigating. I thought you'd

[00:54:07] be interested in the stories. One man faced an imminent foreclosure of his home. Horrible. And there's lots of them out there. You got to be very careful out there in the crypto world. Still lots of people that are taking advantage of kind of the disorganization. You can blame the Congress for part of that. That Clarity Act should have already been passed.

[00:54:33] Why they're not passing it? Well, of course, the banks don't want it to happen. They don't want real world asset valuations. They don't want you to get high interest rates. They want to pay you the one or 2% shitty interest and then charge you 30% on credit cards, charge a high interest on mortgages, charge a high interest on car loans. But that's the banking cartel. Too many inroads in the DC. Now, one of the ugliest things out there is pig butchering. That's what Gene Pirro was just

[00:54:59] talking about. It's when they prepare people and they drain their life savings. But rug pulls are nearly just as bad. Lots of celebrities, lots of politicians we've seen involved in this. But does it surprise you that the name Hunter Biden can be attached to the word rug pull? His meme coin laptop that he hyped up as part of his presidential comments on a podcast and otherwise, he's been pumping it for weeks. He got listed on all the major exchanges.

[00:55:27] Well, it surged in value right out of the gate. But just 30 minutes later, it crashed. So what does that mean? Well, it means that that crypto venture mirrored the fate of other politician and celebrity endorsed cryptocurrencies. The price of laptops surged on Wednesday morning when it came out. I don't know where it started. I was trying to figure that out. It went to $222 at 8.05 a.m., but almost immediately crashed within 30 minutes to $1.79.

[00:55:58] Wall Street Journal talked about this meme coin. They were the first to discuss it. And we've got a chart. This was a chart I pulled yesterday. Now laptop is at 65, is at 0.65 cents. So it's even lower. But look, this just mirrors more media celebrity status crap. Meme coins are dangerous. I'm just telling you, it's not a game where you can do it as a hobby. You have to be fully entrenched.

[00:56:25] But this is the kind of thing, this is the same thing that happened with the New York City mayor, Eric Adams, launched the NYC token in January. That coin surged in value before dropping 75%, and it's much lower now. Does this surprise you that now it looks like he just rug pulled? Now, it was interesting. He said, he made some crucial quotes. You should not expect me or anyone else to make this token more valuable for you, Biden wrote in a post on X on Tuesday,

[00:56:52] hours before the token is launched. It isn't just about owning something. It's about saying something. Everybody gets knocked down. How do we help each other in our country to get back up? Of course, he's looking for money. They owned him and the founders. Of course, the people that printed the meme coin owned 30% of the tokens. Now, I haven't seen any tracking yet to see what he walked with, but he was talking about using the money for political promotions, that he was going to put a bunch of money into the Democrats' presidential campaign,

[00:57:20] which I think it meant his campaign, which would have given him access to large amounts of money. I don't know how much he brought out of this. Does he own part of his meme coin? 30% of it with the people that... That's... Okay. 30% of the total amount minted. How much of it got dumped when it hit $222? I have no idea, but remember this. To print a meme coin, you almost have non-existent costs other than whatever advertising. You guys in the audience could print a meme coin. You can go to a pump fund.

[00:57:49] You can create a meme coin on some social event. You can do it. It's not very expensive to do it, so the cost is very low. Whatever he walked with was pure profit. Whatever the people that minted the coin was pure profit. Now, we have an exclusive video that we got a hold of, of a post of the meme coin launch of Hunter Biden right after it hit the $222. We want to share that video with you now. I might have...

[00:58:30] He seems happy. Okay. Now he's got more drug and prostitute money, bro. Be careful out there in the crypto world and tell all your congressional members to get off their lazy, shitty, good-for-nothing, comprised asses and pass the Clarity Act. It's time to get more legislation in place. Maybe some of this stuff would be stopped. Tell me about Rubio. What's going on here, George? Well, Rubio, he's announcing the designation of another violent terror organization and seven former Ecuadorian government officials for accepting bribes

[00:58:58] and betraying their duties on behalf of terrorist organizations. Can we get him to designate some of Congress like that, that betrayed their duty, their oath of office, taking money from all these big farmers, these conglomerates, I mean, can we do that? We're doing a lot for other countries getting bad people down, but there's a lot of bad people in our government here. But it's good. I mean, we have to dismantle those terrorist organizations.

[00:59:28] You don't hear much about the cartels at the border lately, have you, Lance? They are running quieter. When they heard the potential for drone strikes inside of Mexico, they seem to have, I don't want to say they pulled back, because, of course, most of the discussion is about the southern border, but the northern border is still getting invaded by everybody. You still need to know that the northern border is still an issue, and we're still getting lots of drugs in this country. So they're still operating. But I believe you're right, George, that they are trying to keep a lower profile. They don't want drone strikes,

[00:59:57] and they sure as hell don't want to go against the U.S. government military. Nope. Let's talk about AI-powered robots. Let's. This is actually weird. AI-powered robots, the states are protesting Poland against AI replacing human workers. Hmm. So they're in favor of human workers, huh? Well, it's a done deal. It's going to happen. But the robots are in favor of human workers. They're protesting to keep them. Yeah. Very strange. This is real, by the way.

[01:00:27] Czas na brawo. Czas na brawo. Nie czekajcie. Regulujcie. Pora na zasady. Pora na zasady. Krąj się miska pracy. Krąj się miska pracy. Nie czekajcie. You know what this is? This is some couple of humans that are putting the flags in and saying,

[01:00:54] go walk around and stuff because they don't want to lose their jobs. It's not the AI robots doing it on their own. I don't know what's going on with the Supreme Court. If there was ever a reason to call the National Emergency Act, this would be it. I don't understand what they're doing. People voted for this. Why can't they use the new map? George, tell me what happened. I don't know, bro. This story has changed in the last two days so many times.

[01:01:21] First, the state Supreme Court struck down the map. Then they put it in and another judge approved it. Then Skotis Kavanaugh rejected it. Then another federal judge overrid that and approved it. Now, it just came out this morning that Skotis said no. They have to use the old maps and put it to vote in the midterms this year. But I still understand.

[01:01:46] If you had your primaries on the new maps and new politicians or whatever, running incumbents and all that because it's different areas, how do you go back to the old one? Who won the primary for the old one then? What about the rights of the people that already voted in the primary based on the new map? What happens to those people? Do they get to revote? Or do we just say, screw them, they don't get a vote? You know what, Lance? It's such a mess that now is a perfect time for Trump to declare

[01:02:14] a national emergency in our elections. I agree. Perfect. It's like back and forth. It doesn't make no sense. And really, who's getting hurt? The voters. But what about Missouri? I mean, it looks like there's actually a win in Missouri. No. It just got overturned this morning again with Skotis. It just came out. They're going back and forth, back and forth. Skotis just ruled. Here's another thing.

[01:02:44] Iran just fired missiles at U.S. bases in Jordan, and a couple of planes were hit. That just came out this morning, too. I wonder what Trump's going to do about that now. You know, Lance, I was thinking, I'm jumping around, guys, my ADHD. You know in Texas, right, they have the Permian Basin where they drill a lot of oil? Yeah. Why isn't the state of Texas just take some oil, refine it themselves, and give gas cheaper to Texans, people in Texas?

[01:03:14] Bypass. Bypass. Bypass. I think we need to ramp up our investment in refineries. We seem to be behind on that because, you know, we're still shipping oil out of the country to refine it, which doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Well, you know why. Green New Deal and all these energy people, they don't want that shit. Of course they don't. They love high prices. I guarantee that all the oil companies are going to post record profits. Get ready for this next quarter. They're going to be talking about how much money they've made, and sure, their shareholders love it, but right about the rest of the Americans,

[01:03:44] they're getting shoved up their rear end with these prices. It's crazy. And it's getting translated into everything that you buy because, of course, fuel costs to move everything around the country are through the roof. Just crazy. Crazy stuff. All right.

Something truly remarkable is happening in the world of cancer care, just south of the U.S. border.
