Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, it's America's favorite gun-toting, Bible-clinging, deplorable American. Todd Stars.

It is the Todd Starnes Radio Program. It is not, however, Todd Starnes, Andy Hoosier sitting in for Todd Starnes moving those Liberty University Studios out from Memphis, Tennessee over to Wichita, Kansas, my flagship station, KQAM, a great affiliate of the Todd Starnes Radio Program. And hey, it's Friday, man. You finally made it. Pat yourself on the back. It's so wonderful to have you with us here for the Todd Starnes Radio Show. And I am so looking forward to chatting with all of you on all the great topics. What a week it's been, man. It's, it almost seems like a whirlwind of chaos. Every single week, we're back after the, obviously the 4th of July celebrations, America's 250th birthday. And I know that you are excited to continue that momentum of patriotism going into the midterm season for 2026 But welcome in to again, the Todd Starnes Radio Show 901-260-5926.
If you want to join the program, there are plenty of things that I want to pick your brain on today. One of those is probably the most interesting story of the entire day. Totally non-political. But we were having, I got to tell you, the conversations that you have in a radio studio before the mic actually flips on, is probably one of the most intriguing conversations you'll have. Dylan, come on here for a moment. First off, it's great to work with you guys. Happy Friday to you.
Todd's out and about. We'll hear from him again real soon. But I got to ask you, Dylan, here's the question, and I swear I have not been consuming the devil's lettuce, if you know what I mean.

**Jasmine Crockett** (1:48)
Okay. All right.

**Andy Hoosier** (1:48)
All right. Here's the question for you. If you are cloned, okay? I don't know where this conversation even came from.
One of my coworkers today. If you are cloned, like completely cloned, the same DNA, the memories, everything, if you are completely cloned as another person, then is your girlfriend cheating on you? If they're with that clone?

**Dylan** (2:09)
Like, is she going to cheat on me with the clone or?

**Andy Hoosier** (2:13)
Yeah. Well, like if you both are there and your girlfriend's with your clone, because it's you, but is that cheating?

**Dylan** (2:22)
I feel like I would kill him way before he got to that point.

**Andy Hoosier** (2:25)
See, well, when I talked to my wife about this, this is years ago, she said the same thing. Like if they were two of her, but she's like, there's no way because I would do the same thing. She's like, I would kill her. There's no way because that's cheating.
But if it's you, biologically, the DNA test is you, the fingerprint check shout is you, the memories are there, that's you. So is it really cheating?

**Dylan** (2:51)
There's got to be something that's off about my clone, that my wife could decipher between me and my clone. Maybe not, but I feel like in all the scary movies, there's one thing that's a little bit wrong with the clone, or if it's like a mummy or something.

**Andy Hoosier** (3:05)
Yeah.

**Dylan** (3:06)
Yeah. I don't know.

**Andy Hoosier** (3:07)
There's one little thing. There's an old Arnold Schwarzenegger movie called The Sixth Day. I don't know if you've seen that one. One of my favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger movies back in the early 1990s, where that was the story, like he was cloned and the wife had no clue, but there was like a dot under his eye that shows that you are the clone and that you're actually number two, because they didn't even know the clone itself, didn't even know that it was a clone. So yeah, I swear that was not like the devil's lettuce conversation in the middle of the night. That was a conversation that somehow got brought up to me by a co-worker at the radio studio this morning, and my brain broke and I lost all track of thought for politics in the current events and story of the day, because then you start thinking, like for the spiritual and faith individuals like us here on this program, I think it comes down to the consciousness and the soul is the same soul in two separate bodies. And I think that's really where the difference comes from. But how can you tell based on DNA, based on the memories and based on the exact same appearance? How do you know? How do you really know? That's interesting concept.
