The Jacobson Group on KXEL, the Blowtorch 1540 AM 50,000 Watts, 100.5 FM.

Our sister's signal out of Cedar Rapids, John Jacobson here with Scott Corey, Mike Shane, the maestro at the engineering controls.

Plenty of special guests today.

And boy, we've got some great

sponsors this program today.

Doctors Ted Fogarty and Brad Meyer out at Spirit Lake Okabogy.

Dr. David Hartsich from the Quad Cities and Barbara Hames Bryant.

Barbara is up first.

Let's roll.

Scott, we're in beautiful March now.

March madness and basketball.

I've got Robbins.

chirping all over my neighborhood.

I just, you know, as I do my drives across Iowa in my fiduciary capacity, all 99 counties.

Scott, as I head in to the west going home at night, the sunsets are beautiful, but they're much later than they were even 90 days ago.

And heading to that beautiful eastern Iowa in the mornings, I watch that sunrise

Iowa is still majestic, beautiful land.

It really is.

It sure is, John.

And, you know, talking about, you know, beautiful homes this time of year, I know Barbara Hames-Brain is joining us today, and she's got a lot to talk about.

Barbara, you're kind of the Caitlyn Clark of the homes there in Cedar Rapids area, aren't you?

I love that analogy.

Yes, call me the Caitlyn Clark of...

of beautiful housing.

She is.

You are.

And you know, the thing about Barbara Hames Bryant is she always comes through in the clutch with financing, with locating.

If there is a problem and it's rare, she solves it.

Her cities down there survived the derecho better than all the conventional housing.

These are, as I always say, safe and affordable and

beautiful homes.

So Barbara, I'm going to lead in here.

Again, Barbara Hames Bryant, the matriarch of Hames Homes and Commerce in Eastern Iowa.

Barbara, why does it matter where my home is located?

I'm glad you asked that, John.

And I wish every home buyer would come into our office and ask that people could sometimes compare manufactured homes to vehicles because

Actually, they're tied up like vehicles instead of deeded like real estate.

But the big difference, frankly, between a home and a car is the car can move around all over the place and a home stays in one place.

Right.

So where that home is located is hugely important to the homeowner satisfaction and enjoyment.

And it's also a big factor in the resale value of the home.

That makes great sense.

You know, the resale value just like other real estate

These these these things appreciate Scott.

We're in inflationary time period, but as the old marketing mantra is location location location and Man Barbara, I've been down to your Citus there.

What what a nice Metro setting you have it's a rural Metro setting you've got the nice agrarian landscapes in the horizon and yet

You're close there to all the action, all the major retail, whether it would be pharmacy or hardware, right within just a couple of minute drive.

We love bragging about how our homes are.

You feel like you're living in the country, but you're close to the city.

We're only 12 minutes from the eastern Iowa airport, about that far from Kirkwood Community College, and about 10 minutes from downtown Cedar Rapids.

You know, Barbara, as the days are getting longer, you know, people are gonna start venturing out more and more.

Talk to us a little bit about some of the amenities you have, not only for our nature lovers, but also our pet lovers as well.

We built a 16,000 square foot fenced in doggy play yard this year.

And we welcome all of our pets in Grandview and Summit View here in Southwest Cedar Rapids.

to come and enjoy the doggy playground, the Benson Dog Park, and it's been a hugely popular amenity, and people use it all year round.

Here with Barbara Hames Bryant of Hames Homes.

Barbara, I'm going to be coming out to Cedar Rapids frequently.

I have been coming out frequently and will continue to do so both

from a commercial standpoint and my mother is still living in Marion there and I love getting out to see her when I have the opportunities and often do with my business that I sometimes do in Des Moines.

It's so easy to get around the state.

But Barbara, this is a multi-generational family business and I see the pride that you and your family continue from the great legacy of Kurt

and Norma Haymes.

They had a dream when they came to Marion Cedar Rapids.

Can you just describe for our audience again how that mustard seed has turned into one of the finest trees of all.

It's the great American success story.

My parents retired from the military in 1969 and decided they wanted to open their own bank on their own business.

And figuring that housing would be something that people would always need, they started Haynes Mobile Homes.

And it started with one sales center, a Marion Boulevard in Marion.

And then it grew to several sales centers, several manufactured home communities.

And now we are one of the largest manufactured home owner operators in the Midwest.

and we provide beautiful affordable housing and we have for over 14,000 families.

Barbara, I recall every day of my life for 18 years growing up there in Cedar Rapids, Marion, driving by your nice signage there right on Marion Boulevard.

It's forever etched in my mind.

Forever etched also is the fact that again,

Since 1976, when Iowa's caucus is really catapulted, your center stage again this year, Barbara, you are the head of the Iowa Federation of Republican Women and Cedar Rapids, Marion, Hiawatha, Robbins, et cetera, is the hinge point for presidential candidate tours in Iowa.

There's just a bevy.

They're all basically tripping over themselves to get in now.

We've had Rama Swami and Scott and Asa Hutchinson even in here.

Nikki Haley is coming back.

President Trump is coming out there.

What's it like to be the keeper of the gate, so to speak, and set up these events and introduce all of these

Folks vying to be the leader of the free world quite quite quite an honor for you Well,

it's exciting and it's humbling and it's terrifying and it's exhilarating It's a great time if you're a political junkie to be in Iowa like me We welcome all of the presidential candidates, so we don't pick favorites in the primary But we want to hear what everybody has to say and so far

Everyone of them is much better than who we have for president right now.

You know, one thing about the Iowa caucuses that I really appreciate, I know, and I have some friends that are on the other side of the aisle and family members are on the other side of the aisle.

But they go to these events because they can actually get to speak and meet with these people that are running for president.

And that's such a unique situation, especially in Iowa.

And I'm so grateful that the Republican candidates for president are still participating in the Iowa caucuses this year.

We welcome them and we're glad that we can provide a forum for them to meet and greet the good citizens of Iowa.

Barbara, I advise all of our folks listening in to take a tour of your beautiful cities.

I call them these small community cities in Southwest Cedar Rapids.

They're so beautifully kept.

It's really Americana.

almost Norman Rockwell as you go down the streets, you see the beautiful infrastructure, very good roads, nicely landscaped homes, you got American flags, old glorious flying high.

Barbara, I just love driving through the area and seeing what you've accomplished.

How can people learn more about you and maybe you take a drive and see for their own eyes the great things you've got going on down there?

One of the best ways to visit us is online at HaynesHomes.com.

It's one of the greatest URLs in the planet.

If you're in Cedar Rapids, one of the best ways to visit us is in Southwest Cedar Rapids at the corner of Wilson Avenue and West Post Road Southwest is the Grand View Leasing Office and the Haynes Home Sales Office.

That's Wilson Avenue and West Post Road, Southwest.

And for you folks in Iowa City and Tiff and North Liberty, it's a short drive up 380 and you're right there.

It's so conveniently

located.

Scotty.

It sure is and you know, Barbara, as we go into March Madness, is it true that Caitlin Clark actually asked you for the autograph this last time?

I

can neither confirm nor deny that.

If we see Barbara out of the basketball court shooting threes when we arrive to visit her and with all the residents there, she'll maybe have all the kids there guarding her as she drives in the lane.

Barbara, we hope for a long run for the Hawks.

This Hawkeye women team really is something special.

No, go girls, go.

You betcha.

And the guys too.

We hope to have a great run in the tournament.

Have a great run down to Hame's homes, guys.

Beautiful, safe.

affordable housing for you and your family.

Barbara, as always, thanks for joining us.

We'll talk to you again next week.

Oh, what a fun basketball weekend here on KXEL.

You're listening to us on the Blowtorch, the Clear Channel Nation's longest running 50,000 watt Clear Channel station.

KXEL, Waterloo, Cedar Rapids, and on our sister signal,

at 100.5 FM.

John Jacobson here, and we've got Mike Shane in studio.

Mike, where's that ringtone of excellence to denote your prowess at the engineering deck?

Oh, that is literally music to my ears, Mike Shane.

And we've got two of our great prognosticators.

for March Madness on the phone right now.

Chip Reidman and Matt Garst as we carry them all the way to our 10 state signal here.

Guys, what a thrilling time we're in.

A little bit of a fade for the Hawkeyes and the Huskers.

The ascendancy of perhaps the Cyclones of the Blue Jays.

Chip Reidman, let's start with you.

What's your take of this vast panoply of action?

Well, I was rather impressed with the Creighton game last night.

I I always get a little pessimistic when these things happen Villanoma really scared me because of what they did last time they played him where their postman hit like six out of eight threes Which is unheard of for your for your center to do.

I was very concerned what they were gonna do to Creighton's offense and Fortunately it sounds like or seems like Mcdermot did a good job of

compensating for whatever they went through the last game.

They were up like 20 points, 19 points, most of the second half.

I was waiting for some kind of a dry spell to happen where Villanova would get a good run on them and it just never happened.

Every time that Villanova looked like they were going to make a run and they did get it down to nine, Creighton would answer back right away.

There was no dry spell that I've seen them do in other games.

I'm optimistic about it.

This is their third year in a row.

They're in the semis.

Are they going to make it all the way?

Well, like I said earlier, I'm a pessimist, so I'm really

not

sure.

But they show that they can possibly make it, that they've got to have the other teams' attention now.

You're right Chip Readman and of course they could end up as one of those teams in Des Moines Chip you're our fearless Bracketologist.

What kind of seed could Creighton be cresting?

Let's say they get into the final Conference game.

What kind of seed is the finals of the Conference game?

What kind of seed do you think they take in the big dance?

I Don't think they could make it to a four that'd be way beyond anyone's expectations a five

is very realistic.

I think they're easily at a six right now just with their NET rankings with the NCAA.

So I would guess they're going to be the downside.

I don't see that happening.

Six is realistic and five would be optimistic.

Let's go to Matt Garce.

Garce, we're going to let you talk about the great win and how that helps the cyclones with their big win over Baylor.

And as they're playing here in the tournament,

But let's first talk about the Hawkeyes.

We'll rev up that fight song, but wow, we were just celebrating Matt Garce a week ago, at least us Hawkeye fans were, that buzzer beater by Sandford, it looks like the Hawks had all the momentum, inexplicably just a flat performance at home on Senior Day against

the Huskers forfeiting then their double buy and then they go into the first round to get smacked yesterday by Ohio State.

Fran McCaffrey, there's talk now that Notre Dame's looking at him.

Hey, Matt, can the Hawks keep it together and make a run here or are they sagging?

What's going on with our Hawkeyes?

Well, it's interesting with Iowa.

did not look like a team that played in my mind with a lot of urgency yesterday against Ohio

State.

They tried to ramp it up at the end and were unable to do so.

They did not have very balanced scoring from their starters.

I mean, Rebrach had 20 points, Murray had 17, Perkins had 16, and then no one else did double figures.

Whereas Creighton had five guys solidly in double figures in their game.

I was they average five

five five

guys

getting double figures almost mostly

here Wow, that's just that's really impressive.

So the way I look at Iowa is if rebracha or Murray has a bad game who's gonna who's gonna score those points and There they're one those guys are one bad game away from getting bounced here.

I was not impressed with Ohio State all year.

I really

and I'm an Iowa State fan.

That's why we're playing that Iowa State fight song for you here, Matthew, just in deference to your loyalties.

I appreciate that.

Now that being said, I really did think Iowa would go in there and handle their business against Ohio State.

To me, even though Iowa was the three and a half point favorite in that game, I was shocked by the outcome of it.

I really thought Iowa would go in there and take care of business and build a little momentum.

Look, scram's going to have to circle the wagons and see what he cannot, but he get drawn up and it's really going to depend on what kind of draw they get me at C double A tournament at this point, but they're kind of, they're sitting there waiting to see who they get paired up with.

And that's probably a bit of a concern for Hawks fans at this point, given how they played the last week.

Boy, since the ball looked great yesterday, he's got to be the freshman of the year, huh?

Oh, yeah, he looked.

Looks pretty good to me.

I just, I just don't understand how a true freshman like that can go out there and he 16 points for rebounds.

Yes.

You know, he was eight of 14 from the floor.

He looks really, really good.

Ohio State's got some good young pieces with Iowa's experience.

particularly in the front court that they would be able to kind of manhandle Ohio State and that did not

happen.

No, you're right.

There should have been some urgency.

And you know, there was that melee on the floor where no foul was called.

Chip is fran on the receiving end of the curse of bad calls.

I mean, OSU had two guys with three fouls and one with four and no one fouled out that big 10 tournament game the other day.

Well, it sure seems that way.

Just there's just been some bizarre things.

I know that, you know, Scott Corey has been on with us and he's talked about it in the past about the officiating and and it looks like a rugby scrum match out there sometimes.

So I don't think he's had the better luck on that.

Every

year is different.

Maybe next year it goes the other way around.

You just don't know.

Yeah, I was afraid that Thornton was going to kill us and you know, he's a good talent.

So yeah, Ohio State's got a lot of

Good players coming up.

I can see why coach is coming back next year for that 10 steals for all.

Yeah, go

ahead.

One thing I would throw out about that roughing, you know, everyone's aware of the Fran scare that

yes

down that happened.

Yes,

a couple of games ago and some of the back of my mind.

I've got to wonder if the officials have had their little side discussion saying that that is not going to happen to them and they made it very clear.

you know, in their pregame meetings to themselves saying if Fran gets out of line, you know, we're going to hammer him.

We're not going to let that kind of intimidation happen to the referees.

So I wonder if there's a little bit of an influence going on there in the background in their minds.

It's a great point.

You're raised a chip read.

And there's a great point.

You're raised.

I'll go to Scott Corey on that.

But it's to me, it's kind of like a little bit of a Bo Polini effect, setting up there.

And I

mean, Matt.

10 steals for Ohio State on Thursday.

Those are either great plays or they're uncalled fouls.

There was some, there was some hustle plays there that I'll, that I'll give Ohio State.

Now that particular strum you were talking about, I already tried to scoop the ball.

Well, which he did and he stayed in bounds.

I watched the game.

You know, he scooped it up and tried to throw it to somebody, you know, anybody on the court.

Nobody there, but.

There was over half the people on the court and I'm talking Ohio State and Iowa that were diving around on the floor trying to get that ball.

Right.

I appreciate the hustle from both teams there.

It just seemed to me like Iowa didn't have that hustle earlier in the game.

I agree.

I agree.

It's emblematic of that football team sometime that doesn't appear to play with that sense of urgency.

So guys, how ironic would it be?

So.

Fran goes in to Iowa City on senior day against Nebraska.

Highly favorite.

He needs one win to become the, uh, the all time winningest Iowa hoops coach, uh, in the big 10 there and beat Dr. Tom Davis's record.

They lose the Huskers.

He's got a chance to do it Thursday in the big 10 tournament.

They lose to OSU.

What if they're one and done in the big dance and he goes to Notre Dame?

How ironic would the curse of Tom Davis be?

Is it like the curse of the Bambino?

Chip Reibn, what say you?

I would definitely say that's

a good analogy.

I'm just not sold on the Notre Dame thing.

I just haven't seen much from the articles and input I've seen from riders around the country that that's going to happen.

but we've all seen this surprise before, but that would be ironic that he spends all this time.

And he's had a fair program.

I mean, you've talked about the Fran stayed in previous conversations we had.

So maybe it's deserving that this happens to him, that he stays at the end of his career if he does leave.

But it's hard to say.

Matt Garst, Chip raises some good points.

It's true, Iowa has not gotten to the sweet 16.

since Dr. Tom Davis did the year they fired him two decades ago.

But on the other hand, Matt Garst, this is the first time that Iowa Hawkeyes have gone to four consecutive NCAA big dances since the transition of the ravelling to Tom Davis era.

So our Hawkeye fans, are we just getting too greedy?

I think Fran's done a good job with your program.

Fran, it's obviously a polarizing

figure in the state of Iowa and in the Big Ten with some of his, I'll just say, antics.

Time to time.

He's a pretty fiery guy.

He's recruited pretty well.

The disappointing thing, and I've got a lot of friends that are Hawke fans, is they seem to snatch defeat from the... Yes.

Yes.

Which was awesome to watch, and that was something I never would have guessed was going to happen.

At some point, if you want to be in the upper echelon of the big 10, you expect to make it to a sweet 16, and Fran has not done that.

I think you've got to be a little bit careful what you wish for if you're a fan of any major college team, because Fran has proven that he can put a successful team on the floor, but you can't seem to get over that hump now.

I don't buy the Fran McCaffrey to Notre Dame thing.

I just don't think that's going to happen.

I would see Porter Mosier from Oklahoma as a better fit in South Bend than I would Fran McCaffrey.

Fascinating.

Fascinating.

On take.

Yeah, guys, it's going to be interesting.

Both of you guys are huge Cyclone fans and Cyclone alums.

We've got tons, tons of them in this audience here.

Shout out to Gary Spiker by the way in Cedar Rapids recovering and on the road to a fast mending recovery.

Gary's a huge Cyclone fan.

Let's brag a little bit about the Cyclones.

They got the win when they needed to against Baylor and the team seems to have come together in the last weeks after player dismissal Matt.

What's your take about this team?

And then I'll ask Chip what kind of seeding he thinks they could get.

But Matt, are you more upbeat than you were a week ago?

Oh, it's hard not to be.

I mean, you beat Baylor, who's the top 10 team in the nation projected to be a number two seed to beat them twice in six

days.

And that's a wonderful sign.

I was shocked yesterday at the amount of rebounds that Iowa State had.

I think we had 44 and Baylor had like

15.

B, that's a little bit of, you know, that's some hustle and then that's some matchup things that flowed down, but for Baylor was on the floor for like 30 minutes.

And I think he had two points.

I'm not aware that he had any rebounds.

I mean, he was a non-factor.

So

I am much more optimistic about Iowa State now than I was a week ago.

You know, obviously we're going to play Kansas next and that's going to be an interesting

match up Kansas' favorite and that one by four and a half.

And Bill Sealth mysteriously out.

They're keeping it very close to the vests.

Some sort of cardio related event.

They're saying it's not a heart attack.

You wonder what's going on.

They said they did a procedure.

He's out for the tournament.

How much will that impact the team?

He coached a few games this year in absentia also when he had to take a few games off.

How much will that impact Kansas?

Do you think Chip Readman?

Oh, I would think he's got some good assistance behind him.

That's the kind of situation you I see and it's weird.

I don't know why it happens other than just pure emotion.

that the players all come together for their coach and go out and put on a great performance on the floor.

If he has a good assistant, I think they'll come out okay.

Depends on how long he's away from the team.

If it was for a couple weeks, that could be a different story.

But I think for a game or two, the team will keep themselves together and the coaches will get them through it good.

Chip Regman you are a Husker fan also our do I dare call them rivals?

But you know They they were peeking and then they just ran into a buzz saw in the big 10 tournament That team has not won a big 10 conference game now in many years Wait, is there a lid on that bucket come conference timeship?

It seems like they just can't

penetrate to the next stage to get that program into the next phase.

I would say the lid is called coaching.

Miles had his issues.

He kind of faded towards the end of his career.

He didn't have time to fade.

He started out faded already and he hasn't really had a team to put on the floor that he can say is maybe the team that he really wants.

you know eventually I think the little come off but it's not gonna be like a two or three game run it's probably gonna be maybe a one game run at least to get to the next round

Mike Shane chuckling a little bit studio streak of one yeah yeah Mike Shane you know we're long suffering Mike I gotta go back oh my goodness 28 years or so to Huskers in the NCAA winning that big well back then it was the big 12

Tournament.

Matt Garce, what is going on with these guys?

I'm a little more optimistic about Nebraska basketball going forward than I have been in the past.

Of course, that's easy to say.

You know, I think in today's open world, people will get a lot of time to get their roster management and everything figured out.

And I understand they're getting paid a lot of money to do what they do.

But I do like the fact that Nebraska is being a little more patient with Hoiberg.

Obviously, he will be back barring some strange event that will preclude him from doing that.

I think the future of Nebraska today has been in the last five years.

You know, a disappointing loss against Minnesota.

I don't understand how that happens because Minnesota is really bad.

But, you know, that's why they played the games.

Upset happened.

I do think the futures looked a lot better for next year for Nebraska overall though.

Chip Regman, do you think they get an NIT bid after that Minnesota loss?

Some said they had to win that to be guaranteed an NIT bid.

You still think they pull an invite to that?

No, I think that may have just kind of hurt their chances.

The NIT, the entrance process under that has changed in the last

What half a dozen years where they require more teams to be in that are regular season champions I think it's an intercourse.

We still don't know what kind of upsets are coming up down the road They're gonna put other teams in the NIT that we didn't expect I mean, there could be a couple big ten teams besides Nebraska to drop down into the NIT because they don't make it make it past the bubble

Because

the NCAA so I'm not holding my breath

Final question guys.

How much pressure is we fire up?

The Iowa Fight Song here or on Iowa and here are familiar strengths.

How much pressure on the Hawkeye women and Coach Lisa Bluter with all of the well-deserved hype and accolades for Caitlin Clark and that great ensemble?

What type of pressure is on them?

What will be an acceptable performance for what could be a one-seeded Hawkeye women's team, Matt Garst?

Oh, I think, uh, the elite eight minimum, uh, that's, and that's just going on the hype that this team is carrying around, particularly with Caitlin Clark being, you know, big 10 players here and potentially national player of the year on the women's side.

Uh, I have to make it at least the elite eight or, or Hawkeye fans are going to feel like that was an opportunity that was, that was lost.

And, uh,

I think there'll be some disappointing folks that that doesn't happen.

I there's a lot of people that think Iowa can be in a football for nothing.

They certainly could do that.

But as you know, in basketball, it all comes down to what they get.

Obviously we have to wait to see what happens with that.

Yeah, so much is seeding.

Chip Friedman, the Creighton women have a team that could be asleep or two.

What's your analysis?

Do you think the Hawkeyes are going to get a high seed and at least get into the elite eight?

I would definitely say that's possible for them.

They've had some good games.

They've presented themselves well on the national stage.

I think things look very good for them.

Creighton is going to be an interesting story.

They've flown under the radar.

They have.

They've got a couple good teams.

So I think that they're going to do pretty well.

I could see them possibly hitting five or six feet easily.

And that would bode well for them, getting a good seating end.

possibly even running into Iowa, depending on where they locate the teams.

I think that'd be an interesting matchup.

Well, it's Saturday morning here in Eastern Iowa.

What conference and seating programs you're going to watch this week, and what do you keep in the eye on the most?

I'll go with Matt.

Well, big 12 tournaments, the one that I'm the most interested in, but there's some really compelling matchups potentially for

the Big East and for the Big 10.

I mean, I'm kind of a conference home or whatever happens in the Big 12 tournament, I will be watching the final.

And then I'm also looking for, as Chip brought up earlier, BIDS dealers, you know,

people

that really need to show well in their conference tournament that maybe could take a spot from somebody else.

That's always the fascinating part.

Great point.

Chip Reidman, we're going to give you the last word here on the Jacobson group on KXEL.

Mike Shane, John Jacobson in studio here with our experts, Chip Reidman and Matt Garst, who you heard most recently.

We'll let Chip Reidman have the final word here.

Chip, what you're going to be looking at most this weekend here?

Obviously, I'll be watching for the Big East.

Interesting.

doesn't happen every year in a lot of conference play.

The top four seeds are in the end.

They made it all the way.

As to where if I recall right, the Big Ten has had so many upsets, that's a lot of their better teams aren't going to be in there.

So we're mapping me talking about seeing some of the Big Ten matches.

I'm maybe a little less interested in that.

I wanted to watch and see if Minnesota made it or makes a run or something.

A la Georgetown 2022 and their magical run.

You know, that's pretty much the main things I'll be looking at a little bit.

Of course, I want to watch the Iowa State being an alum.

I'm definitely going to follow them to the hopefully not the bitter end.

Guys, that's a great take.

I'll just I'll close out with saying this chip hit on something there also at the end.

First time in Big 10 tournament history that the first four games went.

to the lower seed.

So, upsets galore.

John Jacobson here taking you out to break.

Thanks.

Chip Reedman and Matt Garstar, studio audience is applauding.

And guys, we always appreciate your contributions and your good vantage points from the other end of the state.

We'll have you back next week.

Scotty, when you hear these tones, you know things are getting serious.

Welcome back to show Dr. Ted Fogarty.

How are you, Doc?

Good to visit with you again this weekend.

How buried with snow did you guys get in your neck of the woods up in Northwest Iowa and Central Nebraska and North Dakota?

Well, Don, you know, I am kind of

I'm all over the map, of course, with my emergency radiology practice.

You are.

You're a well-traveled man curing in three states, four states.

Well, it's actually in

more like 20, but the ones in which I travel the most are Nebraska, Iowa, Colorado, and the Dakotas.

So this big storm from Olive certainly has packed a wall up into a lot of areas.

of the roadways but out here in uh western Nebraska at the top of the old chisel and trail we got about five inches but uh a lot of big drifts and it got pretty cold um i'm a little concerned that you know these fluctuations between hot and cold are going to be a little hard on some of the some of the farm crops

yeah yeah you

can get a little more even keel on the weather

and the livestock's always a concern with the frigid temps uh you know doc we we love Iowa here Iowa is the uh native american word for beautiful land but there's nothing

as beautiful is that austere almost desert landscape the sand hills of western Nebraska encapsulate so beautifully by chimney rock there is an austere beauty out there in the sand hills isn't there doc

absolutely john and honestly this this area of the world would never have been populated by humans if it weren't for cattle and with that i want to bring up a

A very important political situation that's starting to evolve in state legislatures north of here, North Dakota and Idaho have now presented mRNA ban bills.

So the legislators in the rural crowd are understanding and seeing on the ground what's happened to their

family

and their loved ones.

You know, Iowa State is on the cusp of trying to put out a cattle respiratory sensational virus vaccine and Moderna is already getting an RSV vaccine out based on the mRNA platform that's slated to go into every mother.

And these are.

Extremely unethical days, extremely unethical actions, basically the denial of the rights of humanity are going on with this corrupt, murderous racket.

that has come out of medicine through the vaccine industry.

It's the dirtiest industry in the world.

It

has no controls, has no regulation.

Unlike what you have to go through as a banker, John, the regulatory apparatus for vaccines is gone and has been gone for over 30 years.

Well, Dr. Fogarty, I will just illustrate this by saying what other industry has blanket uniform, unlimited liability protection, no consequences for whatever

Deleterious damage is done to people.

It's a monopoly of harm without redress.

It's unbelievable.

Absolutely, absolutely.

And what I've been doing in helping these legislators in Idaho and North Dakota is to basically throw across the first, you know, firebombs, Molotov cocktail, whatever you want to call it, against these multi-billion dollar enterprises that are basically using every human being in America as their guinea pig.

with this mRNA technology.

Doc, let's drill down for people that might not be accustomed to this.

An mRNA is really not even a traditional vaccine.

And what is it about the manipulation of the mRNA which makes this so nefarious?

Can you break this down in layman's language for some that might be just hearing this for the first time?

Yeah well what we've learned internationally from the gross negligence of the industry from other nation states in particular and how this is actually working is that the mRNA gene product is packaged in a liposome and there are certainly products out in America that use liposomal concepts including vitamin C formulations that are packaged in these little fat balls and so the liposomal package

According to a study in Japan that was basically checking the math on Pfizer's product was that this doesn't just stay in your shoulder after you had the shot in your shoulder.

It

actually

goes to the ovaries at 12 times the level of what it would go into the deltoid muscle.

So this liposomal chaperone system is basically delivering the gene product into the human ovaries.

And we literally have a birthing collapse.

We have a fertility collapse on the horizon because of this.

And I can say this without any doubt.

as an emergency radiologist reading the ICU and emergency department films across plain states and into some of the bigger states on the coast.

We have a miscarriage rate that is skyrocketing across America.

We have fetal death that is occurring in women who are trying to bring babies into this world.

And

it is literally going to destroy humanity, that the rate that this is going at.

And no checks or balances for any of this as a Christian and somebody

who's quite familiar with the book of Revelation, I really do feel that this whole mRNA technology is usurping God's mRNA and God's will for us.

And it's also the trigger that John of Padma actually wrote about centuries ago, a thousand years ago, for the market to be a system.

And so when you see the great states of America now participate in this rod and requiring mass lockdowns, requiring vaccine passports, especially in the blue states,

They're all in league with what is truly, it's a satanic platform.

Well, you know, it's

out to destroy humanity.

Dr. Fordy, what we love here is this is a free speech zone and they've not been able to shut us all up, you know.

Facebook has tried very hard.

Now, I've got my own system for beating Zuckerberg.

I've got some end runs and I've rewired the Kobayashi Maruda where

Zuckerberg can't cancel me.

But boy, they tried again just the other night because I posted something that they didn't like about the whole COVID thing in my attempts to bring justice to some of these perpetrators.

But you know, Elon Musk has opened up Twitter and I've been able to put a compendium on Twitter and Twitter is just exploding now with the truth of the data that was suppressed for so long.

How revolutionary is that doctor that we are starting to get

our word out now

well yeah and but let me just go back to yeah for Elon Musk opening opening the archives of the literally the speech

inhibitions

yes

of all of these social media actors against primarily against physicians actually the boldest and bravest physicians and it's not just me it might be just me in North Dakota but it is a lot of physicians around the country and around the world came out from the start including our good friend Dr. Lee Merritt

yes

from the start saying this is criminal this is this this whole this whole thing coming out of Wuhan

is actually a bio weapons program.

And that speech all got censored.

And then my speech, including with and in conjunction with Dr. Paul Harge out of LSU, Dr. Harge got together with the Wuhan researchers in China who are using hyperbaric to save all kinds of moderate to severe COVID patients in Wuhan in the midst of this.

He

translated their experience into the English language.

He published that in March of 2020.

And there are multiple other entities, including NYU and some

Small Town General Surgeons who have saved lives hand over fist with Hyperbaric Chambers,

starting

from the start of

this.

And my team that I've built and developed with Ed DeGirolamo, who's a structural engineer out of North Carolina, we put together the plan to save the world literally from pharma and its sins, which is aircraft, HBOT.org, every single plane, every single jet, every single cabin system in this country, in this great country, is a Hyperbaric Chamber.

every 1,000 flights even.

It is tested.

It's maintenance tested aviation crowd out of the Midwest from Wichita to Des Moines to Wisconsin and up into North Dakota.

We can all tell you that yes, we are actually putting jets in the hyperbaric vessels all the time for preventive preventative maintenance and safety purpose.

Hey, Ted, I've been up to your clinic there.

Right

here.

Yeah.

Dr. Fogarty, I've been up to your clinic and I've used the hyperbaric chamber.

It's extraordinary such that people

know that it's effective for the reversal of strokes, cushions, long haul COVID, and also severe depression.

You're working right now.

We've got to go for this segment.

We'll bring you back on next week and on our other three networks as we always rotate you around every week, Dr. Fogarty.

Dr. Fogarty, one thing that we know is your generosity, you're helping these veterans in Iowa and in Nebraska with PTSD and suicidal ideation to also get some of this curative therapy through hyperbarics.

at a discount or at no charge.

Absolutely.

That's a big project we're working on.

And that is something that I have been doing actually throughout my career with Paul Hart, is getting veterans taken care of.

And we're the ones who publish the answers to PTSD and TBI for all of our veterans, already been through phase three trials now.

And again, this is all on the same platform of virtually increasing the energy running through our mitochondria from God above, heal and accelerate all healing.

And it's a very

simple concept.

And Big Pharma and all of these hospitals in Iowa don't want you to go to Okabogy, the aeronautics performance clinic, to employ the simplest physics in healing in the history of the world.

And Brad Meyer and I have healed many people from dementia, from COVID long-haulers syndrome.

We have set up ICUs, virtual ICUs in people's homes across state lines between Nebraska and the Dakotas in Iowa.

And we are doing things that are far beyond anyone else in the country.

Doc, how do they get ahold of you?

You've referenced the website once.

Give him a shot again.

Docs won Kara's money for his work and also the whole concept of hyperbarics for our veterans.

In my legislative career years ago, Scotty, I was voting for that out of the Veterans Committee.

How do we get in touch with you again, Ted, for some first-time listeners

today?

purplepowder.com on the internet and that will segue you right into the North Dakota federally funded medical countermeasures, purple powder, nutraceutical concept, and you can also get to the clinic website from within that website and our phone number for the old schoolers out there, 712-339.

6024.

Dr. Ted Fogarty, very esteemed.

The studio audience is very appreciative as always.

Doc, every time you come to the show, you're heroic, you're courageous, and you've been proven right.

Congratulations.

Keep curing, and we'll talk to you again next week on this platform.

Yeah, many thanks to KXEL for giving an American physician some free speech across state lines.

Well, he's up there perpetually on the podcast, Dr. Fogarty.

If you type in kxl.com, the Jacobson group, every week we've got Ted Fogarty on there.

There's a whole catalog, Scotty, of interviews with Dr. Ted Fogarty.

We're delighted to have him as a sponsor of the show.

You know, absolutely, John.

And he is actually on the forefront of this.

And it's going to be, unfortunately, it's going to be an issue that we're going to be dealing with for a very long time here in the country.

I'm gonna be getting back up there to Spirit Lake in a week or two to get some purple powder and NAC and spirulina.

So Doc, we'll see you soon.

Sounds good, thanks guys.

Love you brothers.

Yep, the great one.

God bless Dr. Ted Fogarty from the Aeronautics Clinic up in Okabogy Spirit Lake.

Well you're listening to Jacobson Group on KXEL, the blowtorch, 50,000 watts clear channel, caroming across the Big Ten.

on fifteen forty a.m.

and also our sister station one hundred point five f.m.

out of Cedar Rapids John Jacobson here in studio Mike Shane at the engineering deck with his own inimitable Mike Shane sounder play it for us Mikey that means we're getting serious now here guys serious on this beautiful March weekend in Iowa it is March Madness with the advent of it we've got

tournament time and let's bring on to the show the studio audience already on their feet for Iowa State Senator Annette Sweeney Republican leader in the Iowa Senate she has been doing a superb job this week we'll talk about a few things welcome to the show Senator Sweeney

well thank you so much a good day to everyone I'm really excited to be able to visit today

You know, you're born in Buckeye, Iowa.

We do have some Husker listeners also.

You went to Concordia there in Nebraska and you're an expert.

You taught middle school lit in Peoria and you're a family farmer.

Senator Sweeney, you guys had a huge week this past week in the legislature.

We'll zero in on the athletic department, but first can you give us a recap of kind of what's been finished and what's left on the table?

Well, we have a lot of budget bills that need to, that's left on the table.

We need to review the revenue estimated conference that they're going to be meeting to see where we are on our finances.

because we can set forth the budget, but we have to make sure we don't spend more than what we bring in.

And I know that people are working hard on that.

Ways and means is starting to get geared up and with some property tax relief.

And we're also being very judicious with our children and our children in schools.

And so it's been a very intense learning a lot.

session and I'm really proud that I can represent people from my district and also the state of Iowa at the Capitol.

Here was Senator Annette Sweeney, Iowa State Senator, very popular in our part of the state as just a wonderful ag background.

Senator Sweeney, it's presidential caucus time already.

It seems like it has exploded.

Almost overnight.

What's your take?

We've had Everybody from Hutchinson to Scott to Haley to Rama Swami Of course on Monday here just in a couple days.

We've basically got kind of a competing event on education with

President Trump and Governor DeSantis coming into the Quad Cities.

I know the Democrats unfortunately have kind of taken a pass on Iowa as being the first in, but it's still very exciting for you on the GOP side, isn't it?

It is very exciting and I have friends from across the aisle that are gravely disappointed that they aren't going to get to be the first in the nation.

And it's too bad, you know, President Biden had won in Iowa.

So I'm just wondering if it's that, you know, we're not going to show up anymore, but we have individuals and people that are running for president.

I don't care what party a person is.

When you run, you stick your neck out there and it takes time away from your family.

It's an intense process.

And I applaud anyone that wants to put their agenda forward and try to make America better.

Here with Senator Annette Sweeney, Senator Tell Our Folks.

We don't want to dox you, but the area you serve and the communities that you have to pull for your votes when you're trying to chase those 65,000 votes each election cycle.

My district is mainly agriculture, Hardin County, Grendy County, a slice of Black Hawk on the western edge, and then Tema, Trandyzer to cut out, and then Powysheep County.

And I am

really, really enjoying getting to know PowerSheet Containment Counties better, that PowerSheet, you know, we have the Grinnell College there.

I've met with their president and also Grinnell had the best ever Ag Day I've got to experience.

They had the FFA individuals come in and they gave

you know, some leadership awards within agriculture.

And so I really appreciate the focus on ag because in our area, in my area, ag is king.

Well, and KXEL is king in those counties, Senator Sweeney.

So this is a marriage made in almost, well, at least in political heaven here with you on the show.

Hey, Senator Sweeney, a lot of people, very curious as we pull up the Iowa fight song here.

There was a situation this week where there was a lawsuit that was settled and you made some comments about that, took to the fore and kind of led some of the legislative comments on that.

Do you want to just recap and kind of tell us where you think we are and where we might be going?

With the settlement that was made, it was not fair to our taxpayers.

And with the Regent budget, they get the money

from the taxpayers.

And since I've expressed my discontent on the Senate floor, President Wilson has come forward and said that the money for the settlement is going to come out of the athletic fund there at the University of Iowa.

And I applaud her for that.

She is a woman of integrity.

And I wish we could, we need to take this than to step farther.

Our athletic director at the University of Iowa has had a plethora of things that he has caused lawsuits for our great university there.

And over 11 million dollars in 16 years, that's a lot of money.

That's money that could be, you know, used for students and for scholarships and things like that.

and his tenure needs to be reviewed and I firmly believe that he needs to say, hey, you know what, my time here is done and I will be leaving.

If not, somebody should make sure that he comes to that conclusion.

You guys are listening to Iowa State Center Annette Sweeney.

Those of you who are listening from Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin,

Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota.

This is how you do it, the Iowa way.

Senator Sweeney, great, you're a great friend of the show.

Wonderful to have you back on and we look forward to talking with you soon as our studio audience erupts in applause.

Thank you Annette for joining us today.

Oh,

you bet today was a lot of fun and I look forward to more conversations

Scotty, we got to take time out today to salute these heroic doctors of conscience that have been vindicated through this whole COVID treatment protocol period.

These guys were on the front edge, the cutting edge of using very effective, very safe, very plentiful, and very cheap.

front antivirals that saved many lives during COVID.

The first is our show friend, the honorable Dr. David Hartsuch of the Quad Cities, former Iowa State Senator.

He's there at the Paul Revere Square, his practice on 2322 East Kimberly Road in Davenport.

The office phone there is 563-293-7424.

That's 563-293-7424.

And again, Dr. Hartsich also has really pressed the state of Iowa, including a very unwieldy medical board, to quit persecuting these very doctors that did the best work during COVID.

And I give another tip of the hat to doctors Ted Fogarty and Dr. Brad Meyer.

I was just up earlier this week at Spirit Lake, Iowa.

They're at 3301 Bergquist Avenue in Spirit Lake, Iowa.

Their number, of course, is up in Northwest Iowa, 712-339-6022.

That's 712-339-6022 and 6024.

In their dual clinics, the aeronautics

performance clinic where they've had great success with hyperbaric therapy to reverse stroke, dementia, concussions, long-haul COVID, and also at their Okuboji Wellness Clinic.

It was just there the other day in Snowladen, Spirit Lake, Okuboji.

We really salute these courageous doctors of conscience, Scott Corey.

You know, absolutely, John.

And as we keep finding more and more information out about the origins of COVID and the treatment, you know, even the Department of Energy released a statement earlier this week

saying that they believe it was released from a lab in China.

So I mean, the doctors are such a Meyer and Fogarty and there's so many of them across the entire state of Iowa and across the country are leading the battle against this disease.

And we really need to be out there supporting them because we don't even know how much information we don't know yet about this virus and things like that.

And so having these guys lead this battle is so important, John.

as you know.

Well you know they've been vindicated

because the guys up northwest have even won CARES funding.

for their excellent therapies and work.

And of course, they were right about natural immunity and so many different things.

These guys were right at the front end.

So we salute them.

Scotty's been another wonderful show today as, how ironic we're talking about doctors as we're playing the cure on the way out here.

But to these doctors are very curative.

And the song, of course, that we use is just like heaven.

Hey, watch these Hawkeyes at Carver has been just like heaven.

and boy, it should be an exciting next couple of weeks for both Hawkeye men and women.

Scotty, we'll be there to report it.

I'm just very psyched.

You know, absolutely.

And we'd be remiss if we did not mention, you know, talk about the baseball team.

Coach Heller's baseball team took down the number one team in the nation last weekend, LSU.

So there's a great time to be a Hawkeye.

And as we go into March Madness, you know, it's a great time of year.

And wonderful to be able to

listen to this again on podcasts.

Go to the Jacobson Group on KXEL.
