Tony Kinnett joins!

Jason Hammer (0:00)

We are rolling on a hump day. It's the Hammer and Nigel Show. I'm Jason Hammer, Brian Alvey, part of those ash holes podcast filling in for Big Nige, connecting with Tony Kinnett of the Tony Kinnett Cast and The Daily Signal.

Tony, I know we got like some really important stuff to talk about here, but I am so excited for the roast of Nigel because you were the wild card. Like I feel like I know what to expect from everybody else on the stage, but you being the cerebral assassin you are, you're kind of the wild card in this whole thing.

Tony Kinnett (0:38)

Right.

Guys, I'm looking forward to this one. I don't know if I can only keep it to Nigel. Tony Katz needs to be taken down a peg. I think the new kids, they need a little bit more. And as much as anything else, I just need to make sure that everyone knows that the shows just get better as the days go on, you know? I mean, later in the day, better the show. Amen.

SPEAKER_2 (1:01)

Well, let me tell you, Tony, I need you to do me a favor, and I got a fresh, crisp hondo in my wallet for you. Go after my little Cuban friend, Jerry Lopez.

Tony Kinnett (1:13)

No, Nigel would be the little Cuban.

SPEAKER_2 (1:15)

We all know he is. Because here's the thing, I need Jerry a little angry that night, and I guarantee you that will pop him up.

Tony Kinnett (1:24)

Oh, yeah, that's just what I need. Tony Kinnett, a comedian in Newsnight, asking me next week, what did you say about the Cuban people? Did you just call Cuba?

SPEAKER_4 (1:30)

Yeah, that'll be excellent. Thanks Brian.

SPEAKER_2 (1:31)

He attacked the Cuban in Sicily and a couple of his island people.

Jason Hammer (1:35)

Hey, before we get rolling here, let's do a little bit of a victory lap. Let's do some doughnuts at the start finish line. Tony, you absolutely called it. I ran reportedly facing a surge in militant...

Attacks along their southeastern border with Pakistan. I'm I'm old. enough to remember when you called this 48 hours in advance.

Tony Kinnett (1:59)

This is true. A lot of you don't know this, but nothing makes Hammer sweat more at the gym than listening to the show after he's done with a day on Hammer and Nigel.

SPEAKER_4 (2:06)

I do listen to you at the gym as a matter of fact.

SPEAKER_2 (2:08)

I thought he just sweated from opening the door to go in.

SPEAKER_4 (2:12)

Oh, okay, the roast has already started. Fine.

SPEAKER_2 (2:14)

Sorry.

SPEAKER_4 (2:15)

Fine.

Tony Kinnett (2:16)

I can't just save it into one evening. No, so we've been tracking a lot of things that people here at stateside have told me that it's never going to happen. And we just so happened to have a little thing called Scoreboard on the Tony Kinnett Cast. And it turns out that a lot of these ethnic groups, they don't mix very well. They're not exactly friendly. You think Eastern Europe is bad, the Middle East is worse. So all of that said and aside, we've got some inside information down there, of course, in Iran itself. And what we're going to be looking at over the next couple of days is some serious ethnic violence that's taken over the eastern part of the country.

So like brand new stands are popping into existence. I know it's quite a time.

It's really bizarre to watch in real time, I think. I think the Trump administration has seriously eliminated that entire regime, both with the economic side of things and then also with some pretty incredible military maneuvers. It's wild.

Jason Hammer (3:09)

But here's the thing, Tony, just from a broadcast perspective here, I know what it's like when you give a prediction and it's wrong. I do sports betting stuff, right? If I'm 50 percent, that's considered a win in the gambling community. But when you're wrong, everybody wants to pile on. So when you call something that's absolutely right and you do it 48 hours in advance, you totally get to do the donuts on the start finish line.

Tony Kinnett (3:37)

That's absolutely right. And this is the thing I noticed with the election data as well. So far, I'm seeing all these pollsters in the betting markets say that it's gloom and doom for Republicans and it's terrible and it's awful. And Vivek Ramaswamy and the Republican candidates are going to be swept all the way from Ohio to Texas to Michigan. And what I'm seeing is that the early voting data shows the Democrats aren't coming out and the youths aren't coming out. The 18 to 29 year olds, they're all at home. They're not coming. The youths.
