Ep. 288 Today's Peep Glistens with POTUS Profanity, Forget the MOP... President Trump Drops An F-Bomb So We Autotuned It, When AI Knows You Better Than Yourself, Remembering Bobby Sherman
Ever wondered what would happen if a president dropped an F-bomb on live television? Today's episode captures that rare moment as Trump expresses his raw frustration with both Israel and Iran over their ceasefire violations. "We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the f*** they're doing," the president declared while answering questions about the ongoing Middle East conflict. I explore not just what he said, but why this unfiltered moment matters and what it reveals about diplomatic tensions in the region.
Curious about how artificial intelligence perceives this podcast? I conducted an experiment asking AI to analyze both my radio show and podcast without providing any background information. The results were surprisingly accurate! From noting my focus on "challenging the existing world order" to recognizing my commitment to community building and local business advocacy, these digital insights prompted some interesting self-reflection about my broadcasting approach and the values that drive my content.
The episode takes a nostalgic turn as we remember Bobby Sherman, the beloved 1960s and 70s teen idol who recently passed away at 81. Beyond just discussing his hit songs like "Julie, Do You Love Me," I share a deeply personal childhood memory that many listeners will relate to—collecting those flimsy cardboard records that came on cereal boxes. You'll even hear some remarkably preserved recordings played directly on the podcast, creating a genuine moment of audio time travel to simpler days.
Throughout this 288th episode of Pat's Peeps, we maintain our commitment to honest conversation, community connection, and celebrating the cultural touchstones that shape our shared experiences. Whether you're here for the political analysis, the nostalgic memories, or just for the company, this podcast continues to be a place where authentic voices and unfiltered perspectives thrive.

Good afternoon peeps. It's the Pat's Peeps podcast. On a Tuesday, it is June 24th. This is Pat's Peeps number 288. As we just keep rolling along, man, keep building our Pat's Peeps community and just keep going and going.
Speaker 1:I look out my studio window into the beautiful foothills of Northern California. It is a gorgeous day. It was so nice. Darlene, with a Y, stopped by Ladies and gentlemen. She was here earlier. We sat on the front porch and enjoyed a nice breeze and some sunshine. And, as she does on Tuesdays, it's kind of become a tradition she brings me the chicken pot pies from Kentucky Fried Chicken I guess I have to say KFC, but we always called it Kentucky Fried Chicken growing up, anyhow. So how are you? Happy Tuesday to you.
Speaker 1:I am the host of the Pat Walsh Show. By the way, my name is Pat Walsh. You can hear me evenings, kpk Radio in Sacramento, 93.1 FM, 1530 AM, and streaming live, live everywhere, just like on this podcast. By the way, I had a few people yesterday saying I think I may have mentioned this. No, I didn't. No, no, I didn't. Maybe I did. On my show I may have mentioned this. No, I didn't. No, no, I didn't. Maybe I did. On my show last night I mentioned this.
Speaker 1:A few people mentioning me yesterday in regards to yesterday's podcast 287, saying you know I was listening and really started laughing out loud. Apparently, flatulence is a really. It's a lot of people like that. You know a lot of people like the flatulence humor. I was even having a good time with that. I have to say, if you missed yesterday's podcast, listen for the dehumanization of the Albertsons. I think it's worthy of a visit. Pat's peeps 287.
Speaker 1:Speaking of worthy of a visit, we have some sad news. It seems like it's going on every day and then we have some kind of interesting sort of funny. I don't really want to say funny, it's not funny, I guess Interesting. However, you want to look at it Because you don't see a president dropping an F-bomb very often, but in this case we did. If you saw that or if you've heard it, maybe Our president today.
Speaker 1:You know he gets hounded by these reporters. I guess all the presidents do, but I've never seen a president so hated by these reporters and sometimes the questions are so disrespectful and, as I've talked about both on my show and on this podcast, just the propaganda, the agendas that they have. It's absolutely true. I work in the media. I can tell you, it's true. I mean, whether anyone wants to believe that or not, they do. There are very few neutral news outlets, media outlets, and a lot of these questions are absurd. And so now the president, the Trump, swore today in past tense there, they don't know what the beep they're doing. You know, I didn't mind this. What do you think? I didn't mind it. We'll talk about that on my show for a minute tonight. So you know, trump was speaking with reporters there at the White House. He's leaving for the NATO summit and he's expressing disappointment about continued attacks.
Speaker 1:After the announcement of a ceasefire which, by the way, the update on that Israel said no, no, no, no, no, no. We're turning all planes around, we will not do anything, we're off, we're not doing anything. So that's the update. There is a ceasefire. Israel and Iran agreed to a ceasefire. Israel accused Iran this morning of launching missiles into the airspace after the truce was imposed and it was supposed to be in effect, I should say, rather than imposed and then Israel, apparently as soon as they made the deal, they came out, dropped a load of bombs. Trump said the likes of which I've never seen before, the biggest load we've seen, not happy with Israel. I mean so he was being honest, saying he's really unhappy about Israel. Going out this morning he's, you know, because the one rocket that did land you probably saw it was shot. Perhaps by mistake he said didn't land, not happy about that, not happy about Iran, anyhow. Now there's again. There's that update. So here is what the president said this morning. I've got him sort of mid-conversation here.
Speaker 3:You know what they're doing. They're really hurting great pilots that put their lives on the line.
Speaker 1:Because it's for a minute. Up to this point, several minutes. Yeah, that's what he's talking about. He's talking about his, his, uh, the fact that he's irate about the um uh well, a break in the ceasefire, but he's equally as irate with the fake media cnn is scum, and so is msdnc, they're all.
Speaker 3:and, frankly, the networks aren't much better. It's all fake news, but they should not have done that. Those pilots hit their targets. Those targets were obliterated and the pilots should be given credit. They're not after the pilots, they're after me. They want to try and demean me, the Press.
Speaker 2:Well, you don't believe that Iran can rebuild its nuclear program? The President.
Speaker 3:Well, I mean, iran will never rebuild its nuclear From there, absolutely not. That place is under rock, that place is demolished. The B-2 pilots did their job. They did it better than anybody could even imagine. They hit late in the evening, it was dark, with no moon, and they hit that target with every one of those things and that place is gone. But when I see CNN all night long they're trying to say well, maybe it wasn't really as demolished as we thought it was demolished.
Speaker 1:They're the worst worst.
Speaker 3:Really, these networks and these uh cable networks are real losers ms you're gutless losers. I say that to cnn because I watch it. I have no choice. I gotta watch that garbage. It's all garbage. It's all fake news. But I think cnn is a gutless group of people and the people that run it. Nobody even knows it's been sold so many times. But the people that run it ought to be ashamed. Msdnc a guy named Brian Roberts, he heads it. He's a disgrace.
Speaker 1:They're the worst, in my opinion.
Speaker 3:A weak, pathetic disgrace.
Speaker 1:Here you go, here you go. Do you believe?
Speaker 3:that Iran is still committed to peace. Yeah, I do. They violated it, but Israel violated it too. Are you questioning if Israel is committed to cease Israel? As soon as we made the deal, they came out and they dropped a load of bombs, the likes of which I've never seen before the biggest load that we've seen. I'm not happy with Israel. You know when I say, ok, now you have 12 hours, you don't go out in the first hour and just drop everything you have on them. So I'm not happy with them. I'm not happy with Iran either, but I'm really unhappy if Israel is going out this morning because the one rocket that didn't land, that was shot, perhaps by mistake, that didn't land. I'm not happy about that.
Speaker 2:You know what.
Speaker 3:We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the f*** they're doing.
Speaker 1:Oh oh, why did they bleep that out? I guess because, let me, where did I get that Particularly? This is everywhere. Where did I get that particular? This is everywhere. Where did I get this one? This was on Fox Live. Now, is that what this is? Why'd they bleep that out? Why did they bleep that out? You know what he said it? It's the whole point. The whole point is that he said it. Oh, brother, well, I took it. I figured you know what. You don't hear that that often. Why not take that and auto-tune that thing? Let's do that. Here we go. Pats Peeps 288.
Speaker 2:We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing. Do you understand that? Do you understand that we basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing? Do you understand that? Do you understand that?
Speaker 1:You said it.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Now, you said it, you said it, you said it. You just don't hear that that often. So it sounds like one way or the other. Iran sent the missile, lobbed the missile towards Israel, it was shot down May or may not have been by mistake, as our president said there and in response Israel just bombarded them. I mean, I thought it was fair. I don't think he was. I mean he was mad at both sides. I mean he was mad at both sides. One thing about this president man he imposes like a time limit. He's really having an effect on Middle East affairs, isn't he? It's just an incredible story. But he just points out that bogus media, absolutely unbelievable. Ah, yeah, wow. So when I was thinking about that, I started thinking you know, I do this podcast all the time. I do this podcast all the time and I know that social media or, excuse me, ai will do little descriptions and things of whatever it is you ask them. I thought I would take the you know, because I was going to talk about Trump and his response there and I thought it might be kind of interesting if I simply asked AI I guess it was ChatGBT about my show, my radio show and my podcast, just to see what it said, without feeding it any information, and here's some of the things it came up with. By the way, it gave me some stuff I didn't ask for, like the growth of podcasting. The broader popularity of podcasts in general can also contribute, they say, to the growth of specific shows like Pat's Peeps, which benefit from the increased availability and accessibility of audio content. It says there's potential for synergy with other platforms. This is AI, what it's telling me about my show and my podcast. The host's presence on traditional radio along with his podcast may create a synergistic effect, drawing listeners from one platform to the other, and I hope that's the case. I hope you, if you don't listen to my show, I hope they'll give my show a chance, the Pat Wall Show. If you listen to my show, thank you for listening to my podcast. Here's what it's saying about me and about my show, without me feeding it anything. Focus on listener engagement. Let's see, I just did this, so I haven't read this yet. I'll tell you whether it's right or wrong.
Speaker 1:The host emphasizes the importance of building a connection with listeners. Yes, both through traditional radio and the podcast. Yes, of course, this focuses on community, absolutely, and shared interests. It can drive listener loyalty. Word of mouth promotion Please, that's true. Please, I would count on you for the word of mouth if you like what we're doing here. Thank you.
Speaker 1:Diverse content the podcast covers a range of topics, including radio history, current events like the California transgender athlete rules I can't believe they picked that out. Okay, yeah, that's true. Personal antidotes, absolutely, which may appeal to a broad audience. Then it says personal brand and authenticity. The host's honesty, thank you, and willingness to share personal opinions, even controversial ones, can resonate with listeners who appreciate unfiltered voices. Yes, very nice. Ai, you know me so well. Let's see what else they have in there. I know they said something else. Let me see here. I gave some more sort of okay, here we go.
Speaker 1:This is from Meta AI. The first one was from Chat GPI. This is Meta Challenging the new world order. This is describing my show. Walsh seems and I haven't read this Walsh seems to believe that the existing world order is outdated and needs to be challenged.
Speaker 1:Wow, he appears to support Trump's efforts to promote American interests Absolutely and challenge the status quo. Yes, I promote American interests, not just Trump's. Anyone who has the best interest of America and our nation in mind. I'm all about supporting that. By the way, as I always say, it begins with local, local business. Please support local Patspeepscom. Please Goes on to say critique of US foreign policy.
Speaker 1:Oh boy, what is this going to say? Walsh is critical of the US foreign policy establishment, its approach to global affairs. He seems to believe that the US has been too focused on promoting democracy and human rights abroad rather than prioritizing American interests. Wow, this man of AI, pretty smart. I can't argue with that. You know, listen, I'd you know. I would love to see us continue to promote democracy worldwide and human rights, absolutely. I may have that one off just a little bit, because I believe definitely in promoting democracy and human rights, but I also believe, of course, prioritizing American interests. Then it says support for Trump's America First agenda.
Speaker 1:Walsh appears to support Trump's America First agenda and his efforts to promote American interests abroad. He seems to believe that Trump's approach is necessary to challenge the existing world order and promote American greatness. Now you know. Okay, let me respond to that Meta AI, I do again. I'm repeating myself, and I don't mean to Georgia, sorry, I'm not trying to, I'm just responding America First agenda. Yeah, it's, I do support that. I only said Georgia, she's a sweetheart and I, you know, when people give me really nice feedback I pay attention. That's all I meant there. She had great feedback. Anyhow, to promote American interests, yeah, I mean, does that make me a bad person? What if you put another name in there, smith Jones, alias Smith and Jones? If it said Walsh appears to support smith's america first agenda, I'd say, yeah, the name just happens to be trump and it's controversial. But I do support, of course, america and america first. Oh, here's something about my podcast that said meta ai.
Speaker 1:Pat's peeps podcast is hosted by Pat Walsh, a renowned national talk show host. Okay, and it's all about connecting with friends and acquaintances while championing local businesses. Yes, the podcast is an extension of Pat's work in supporting small mom and pop businesses. How awesome is this? Through his platform, pat's work in supporting small mom and pop businesses, how awesome is this? Through his platform, pat's Peeps, patspeepscom, each episode features Pat discussing various topics, from personal stories to current events. I kind of went through that already. It's just a different description, even music. For instance, in one episode it says Pat shared a heartfelt and vulnerable conversation about his son's passing, navigating grief, the importance of community support. He also discussed the legacy of Badfinger, a 70s band that's right signed to the Beatles' Apple Records label, certainly, and its synopsis. Overall, pat's Peeps podcast is a unique blend of personal stories, local business support and thoughtful discussions on various topics.
Speaker 1:Well, there you go, nice. Most of that I just can't deny. I would say that's absolutely true. Tonight on my show, by the way, derek Murray will be joining us. I think Tony Cox will be joining us again. Tony's been kind of a regular lately, but just because of things that have been going on. Cox will be joining us again. Tony's been kind of irregular lately, but just because of things that have been going on.
Speaker 1:Derek Murray, though he's the guy that hired me at KSTE, which is now part of KFPK. We're all part of the same big family. Derek will be on my show tonight. Excuse me, I need a drink of water. Oh, thank you, pardon me. Derek is the guy that hired me at these radio stations, so he's got some stories he wants to tell. I said sure, you know. Yeah, that'd be interesting even to me, stories that maybe I don't remember, things that he recalls about hiring me over there. So I'll be very interested in that. So, yeah, we'll do that tonight here on the Pat W show or on the pat wall show, I should say, and one of the things I'll be talking about on the show tonight and again, it seems like every single show, whether it's my podcast or whether it's my radio show.
Speaker 1:Every day we lose someone else. I talk mostly about music, but we, every day, we're losing musicians, artists, and we lost another one. I mean God, we've had Brian Wilson, we've had Sly Stone, we've had Mick Ralphs we talked about yesterday and today Bobby Sherman passed away. I mean Bobby Sherman. As a kid I can remember Bobby Sherman and all the girls loved Bobby Sherman. I remember that he was a teen idol and girls boy girls just loved him. He was 81 years old, he was a singer, he was an actor from the 60s and 70s. He had cancer. Geez, it just takes its toll on our society, just cancer, just anyhow, he was a teen idol. Uh, he was married for 29 years to Bridget, who made the announcement, and he survived by two sons, tyler and Christopher.
Speaker 1:But Bobby Sherman, he had those very poppy hits. He had poppy hits, but he was also an actor. Like I said, he had songs like you Make Me Happy. Hey, little Girl, happiness Is Little Woman, la La La. If I had you, I'll Come Back to that One. He had a song called Easy Come, easy Go. I'll come back to that one as well and I'll tell you why in a moment. But and he appeared on TV shows like here Come the Brides, getting Together, the Mod Squad Emergency Murder she Wrote. But I particularly remember when it comes to TV here Come the Brides because you know he, bobby Sherman, was not only the star, because he was really popular at the time with his music and, like I say, a teen idol, but he was the star of the show and he actually sang the theme song to here Come the Brides, a song called Seattle. They had very long theme songs back then, didn't they Compared to now, in my last five seconds the most beautiful sky you've ever seen in Seattle and the hills the greenest green in Seattle.
Speaker 2:Like a beautiful child growing up free and wild, full of hopes and full of fears, full of laughter, full of tears, full of dreams to last the years in Seattle when you find your own true love.
Speaker 1:David Soule was in this show. Remember him from Starsky and Hutch.
Speaker 2:Smile by the look in his eyes, set up pine trees in the air. Boys, don't stand around and stare. Look out everyone. Here come the brides.
Speaker 1:Wow, here come the brides. I haven't thought of that in years. That was Bobby Sherman singing that. Yeah, he was a guest on like Emergency, the FBI, as I mentioned, mod Squad, ellery Queen. He did Frasier. He was on American Bandstand Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour. I mean, the list just goes on and on and on. One of the things that I really remember about Bobby Sherman, probably the thing that I remember most. Well, before I get to that, here's another song that he had. This was one of his bigger ones, I think, bobby Sherman, in terms of his songs. Julie, do you Love Me? Remember this one Do you Love Me?
Speaker 2:Being alone at night makes me sad girl. Yet bring me down all right tossing and turning and freezing and burning and crying all through the night. Julie, Julie, Julie, do you love me?
Speaker 1:Julie, julie, julie, do you care? Julie, julie, are you thinking of me? Julie, julie, will you still be there? So that is one of his most popular tunes Julie, do you love me? Julie, julie, do you love me? So that is one of his most popular tunes Julie, do you love me? Julie, julie, do you love me?
Speaker 1:One of the things that I was going to say that I remember Bobby Sherman the most for is when I was a kid. You know, you get cereal, a box of cereal, honeycomb, for instance, and as a kid I'd be very excited. Forget about the prizes you'd get inside. But sometimes you'd buy these box of cereal and there would be a record on the back of the box, sort of a sound postcard. They called it A cardboard record, cheaply made.
Speaker 1:Phonograph record made a plastic-coated thin paper board. Phonograph record made a plastic-coated thin paper board, and it was very popular in the 60s, in the 70s, and these discs were usually very small, poor audio quality compared to vinyl or acetate discs. They were marginally playable, believe me, due to their very light weight and it was hard for them to stick to the surface of your turntable. Then you try to put the needle playable, believe me, due to their very light weight, and you know it was hard for them to stick to the surface of your turntable. Then you try to put the needle on it and then, of course, you have to cut the record out just right, or it's going to fall off of the groove when you try to start it, and you'd have to. Like you know, and if you don't leave them out too long they would warp just like any record really, though. But you can improve the sound of the record, actually the playability of the record, if you placed a coin between the lock groove and the spindle hole to add a little weight, you know, a little stability to it. There's little tricks you had to do, but these records are very distinct from both flexi discs, which are sturdier, and some of the old home recording discs.
Speaker 1:Cardboard is what they were made of. That tells you everything you need to know. Mass produced for this specific purpose promotional campaigns, freebies, and you maybe get them on the back of Life Cereal. I'm going to play a couple of them for you, because that is where I remember Bobby Sherman, one of the places you know, by the way, mad Magazine. I remember they used to insert these cardboard records of songs from their series of merchandise novelty albums. They would put them in these certain super special reprint magazines.
Speaker 1:It's a gas, for example, featured a Featured a rhythmic belching sound, allegedly coming from the mascot of Mad Magazine, Alfred E Newman. See if I can find that. I hadn't even thought about that. Let me see if I can find that. I don't know if I can, let's see. That's pretty good, okay, yeah, oh, here we go. It is here. It is this one I found I had to find on the computer, but I want to hear it. Alfred e newman, it's a gas. All right, this is not off of the cardboard record, this is my computer. I digress, this is called digress, going off on a tangent for a moment A detour. Pat's peeps 288. All right, back to the cardboard records. All right, I'm holding in my hand, I have these cardboard records of Bobby Sherman.
Speaker 1:The interesting thing is there would be one, two, three, four, five songs. I played one of these on a previous podcast. I know, I know I did. There'd be five songs on one of these records, not one little 45, even though they were the size of a 45, a seven-inch record, but they'd have like five songs on there, amazing. So let's play a couple of them here. Let's play Easy, come. No, let's play La La La La. Let's play this one. Here we go Again. This is, oh, boy, if I had you La La La, if I had you, bobby, starr, oh, here we go. Wow, if I had you La la la, if I had you Bobby, oh, here we go. Wow, can't believe it.
Speaker 2:The fact that this is of a 1960s cereal box.
Speaker 1:I can't believe it's still playing that.
Speaker 2:well, you can make a rainy day, sunny in my mind. You make the world seem like a friend to me.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there ain't nothing I couldn't do if you were there to see me through and I loved you and knew that you loved me. Come on, la, la, la, la, la la. There ain't nothing in this world I couldn't do. Of course I don't own the rights to this. I always have to say that, educating, critiquing and blah, blah, blah, la la, blah, blah, blah. I wouldn't do it if I had you. All right, let's flip it over. I don't have to flip it over. Let's play a different song on here. Five songs, All right. This should be Easy Come, easy Go. All right, here we go. Bobby Sherman from a cereal box record. Easy come, easy go.
Speaker 2:I want to say thank you for listening to my podcast 288 and rest in peace, bobby Sherman I want to say thank you for listening to my podcast 288.
Speaker 1:And rest in peace, bobby Sherman. I mean again, I'm not trying to become an obituary show, but heck, we're just losing people. They need to be remembered. Thank you, we'll see you tonight. See you on the radio.
Speaker 2:I don't have to smile, didn't I know? Easy come and easy go.
