Hey now, you're on Live The Dream Media, Christopher DeSimone. It's a James Bond global James Bond Monday.

In the old days, we'd play tunes before we get sued by Warner Brothers Music for playing Goldfinger. Bum-pum-pum! Uh, let's see, um, hold on. I gotta, I gotta, uh... Hold on, I'm texting my boy, Hessam, here.

Okay, there we go. Thank you. Sorry about that. Very unprofessional. Uh, we're calling it, uh... It's, uh, Animals and Humans Week. We started off with an amazing, um, St. Francis of Assisi Day, and, um, Father Miguel at St. Odelia's did a wonderful blessing of the animals at 10 o'clock yesterday morning. That was kind of fun. And then, uh, we're finishing up with a big Track Ranch weekend. There's a, uh, little, um, grand opening, uh, thing on Friday night, but the big public event that I hope you will all support. And if you can't be there, go to Track Ranch's website and, uh, see if you can send them a few bucks, is the Fall Fest, 12 to 5, on the Saturday. It's also second week of Pumpkin Patch. The following weekend, the 17th, I think it's 10 o'clock, David told me, we'll be doing, excuse me, um, a live remote from the Pumpkin Patch. So, I'm gonna be, I'm gonna put on my pumpkin latte, uh, underarm deodorant, and we're gonna go.

Catalina County Coffee by Augusto. Very, very, very good. Hessam and Bob, lots of stuff to cover in the 7 o'clock hour. If you missed Bob with Bruce and Ebon, um, Wednesday, they were great together, covering not Iran stuff. And it was Greenland and it was, it was, they were very, very good. Very, very good. All right. I got to bore you with my weekend a little bit. We have Friday was Miss Betsy's birthday get together. A place that I hadn't been in years. I used to go with my dad and brother Joe. This is 20 years ago. And it hasn't changed on the inside. Thirsty's Pub and Grill on Pantano and Wrightstown. And got to see the Cousinos and Miss Betsy and Matt and Kelly and Tia and Teddy. And then me and Matt just sat in the corner of the table and caught up and kibitzed, as we like to say. And then Miss Betsy had her birthday party, her birthday cake. And then I went to go watch a soccer game that night and an adult league for a friend of ours. It was a wild Friday. I haven't had a wild Friday like that in a long time. Saturday, I want to thank all of you who came to the Northwest Republicans for Ted and Chris explaining almost all the propositions. A lot of good discussion. They actually got me thinking. I don't go into these things like, you know, a hard yes or no. Well, some of them are hard yes or no. But you guys got me thinking on a couple of them. So that was very good. And before the weekend's out, this week's out, I will put it up on DeSimone HQ.

DeSimone HQ for all of the proposition recommendations and some candidates, especially on school board stuff. The Amphi School Board. Gotta stay away from Fife and Godlowski. That's a nightmare. Slater has issues, but I think she has way less issues than the other two. And I think she knows I can't have more teachers' union influence on a failing district. I mean, I need Amphi to be strong or dissolve. And let Marana pick up a little bit. TUSD and maybe Flowing Wells pick up the rest of the students and say sayonara to Amphi School District. You've been, I mean, you've had one of the worst school boards. I mean, the only people that outshine you in worstness is TUSD. So when you have Matt Kopec just sliding in there for the last so many years, the train wreck during COVID, hiring the lawyer to be your superintendent from TUSD, and he was work for you too, explains a lot. So anyway, so great night Friday night, Saturday morning, probably had 60, 70 folks there. And then I had to leave a little early. I had to, once we got, I couldn't stay for questions after. Oh, we did questions throughout the whole thing, but I know Ted said he left at 1030-ish. I had to leave, I had to go up to Phoenix for some family stuff. I did end up at Joe's Barbecue, so that was good.
