17:28 Speaker 5 whole pika thing pika yeah the pika's like spicy no no no the pika's best that it's that poll that they do every year oh yeah it started off to be a really small event like you know but it's

17:42 Speaker 4 graduated into this huge thing now i know they got um what was it i think it was hemlani's best apartment complex go picas i mean is it are they out with the final list already or no i think they got like two years in a row dude oh that's funny that's got to be a joke

18:00 Speaker 5 it's got to be a joke best apartment complex all right well they have another one this one's of the pdn poll for guam election 2026 and they closed it there's a poll they did one of four 800 readers okay um more than 800 of them voted in their general election poll which ran from midnight monday to 5 p.m on friday so last week they wanted to know who readers plan to vote for ahead of the november 3rd general the results of the pdn's poll have have no bearing on the general election unless i read it on the air and then people go what wait who's voting for what well this is what it showed for the gubernatorial race uh it is uh the republican team of tony atta e.j calvert with 482 votes uh followed by teresa terlahi and sabina paris with 371 alicia limtiaco won the uh delegate i mean uh yeah the delegate race a democrat candidate 472 to uh morelands 381 in the senatorial race um i think the democrats actually let me see how uh one two three four five six seven seven democrats out of 15 so it looks like there is a democrat i mean seven republicans out of 15 so that makes like the

19:28 the democrats uh blue street uh with barnett hitting uh the the top vote getter with amanda shelton angel sablon jesse lujan ralph scamboluri clint rogel uh chris duenas talena nelson sabrina uh sean john jonathan sovaris uh vince borja dr wen hitting 13 uh donna kanata and tello those are the top 15 in that race the ones who fell behind and just right after tello with just a um what is a seven vote split was will parkinson and then falling down uh further down it was like shelly calvo and all the way to the last vote getter was joseph uh areola with 130 votes out of the 30 candidates that are running uh phil taidinko uh took this one 370 to doug more than 218 falling to third pete santos then tom fisher then jordan paloon for the education board race it was uh john titano ron mcninch isaiah uggen and ron uh ron azuzu and then for the ccu mike delimtiaco to simon sanchez uh francis santos kenneth paris and roy adeney those were the those and a reminder that they're opening up early voting on october 8th

20:56 which is just around the corner at the west end that's early voting for the general election and again you you know this is this poll is what everybody is doing it wasn't the poll it was the comment section sometimes you run straight for the comments okay the comment section actually had me a little bit in stitches there was a guy who wrote he did a whole list he went down the the list of these of of he was up early on the 26th that saturday uh and he went down the entire list of the the people who were running and some of them that weren't on i mean that weren't in the top 15 um and some of them i don't know where some of them are taking stabs i don't know i i don't i don't know uh he's taken some stabs at some personally and this is not representative of anything else that anybody said but this guy his name is roy taurus if you go to the comments read what he has to say because i just was laughing of his descriptions of each of these senators okay they're pretty funny he was kind of brutal on some of them but you know when you go to the comments that's the best part for sure i run to the i hurdle to the comments when something something pops up i just want to see what people say about it okay and they are so much more funny than you expected, or people become brutal, like I said, in their comments over these general elections. For one of them, one of them was one that I agreed with,

22:26 I mean wholeheartedly, but I'm not going to say, because it's one person, and it's not a bunch of people who said, if you want to see it, go to the PDN website and look up their poll.

22:37 Speaker 4 How many participants in the poll?

22:39 Speaker 5 800. Okay. Yeah. got it 800 uh respondents and how many registered voters do we have oh i don't right okay you know okay all right 800 is not bad okay all right we're getting in the 50,000s we have registered registered voters in up yes higher than that but over 50,000 and less than half are showing up to vote correct okay less than half showed up for vote to vote in the primary got it they typically typically believe that more people will show up for the general election because these are, you know, they know that this is definitely on the line. They just didn't want to go to the primaries and pick the candidates for the ballot. They just want the candidates that are already been chosen. I guess they didn't want to do that hard work. But, you know, this political season, there's just a lot of social media input. So it's really, you can't help but see it it's it's in your face you know everywhere you go something's happening right yeah

23:41 everywhere you go there there is there are you know people who are are talking about running and and they're all coming from this age group you know dice spends a lot of time talking to these candidates she's gone to their their campaign headquarters during the primary election she ran the whole she ran the whole gamut on election day uh going to all of the camps and studying the candidates and so it's she's invested in what these candidates are looking for and then came back to report them because i wouldn't do it i may not go to every

24:16 Speaker 4 single every single and it's so cool to see because when you go to these camps you know what i mean when it's election time and you go out there and you see them all you see the republicans the democrats and you know what they're actually all mingling and i'm like how come y'all can't do this when y'all in session y'all are so chill and you know i mean that was a lot of that is

24:37 Speaker 5 theatrics they do that yeah a lot of that is three actors there are some members of this

24:42 Speaker 4 particular you know what i mean they're not yelling at each other they're not you know

24:46 Speaker 5 and they do this because they they they do that there's party infighting too there are people as as you well know, that don't get along with each other. And that comes out, you see that on the legislative floor. And then you know that there are people who don't get along, but you don't necessarily see it because they want party unity. They want to show that there's party unity.

25:08 Speaker 4 I like the party unity.

25:09 Speaker 5 But a lot of these guys will go not to each other's fundraisers necessarily, but they're colleagues and they support each other in the body, right? They have different political views. But I see what you're saying. they're they're actually pretty chill at these places yeah and i'm like okay look at that red

25:25 Speaker 4 pink purple blue we don't even know what color we're wearing today that's all right we're not judging i like this i'm like look at us all being professionals it is kind of it is refreshing to

25:37 Speaker 5 see and if you and if you know you know i mean if you're only taking your cues from what you see on the legislative floor that isn't necessarily representative of how they are yeah you know

25:47 Speaker 4 You got to come out, see them, shake their hands. You know what I mean? Like yesterday, it was Senator Jesse Lujan's birthday, and, you know, he was chilling. I'm like, okay, look at you, Mr. Sexy. So, you know, you just got to, I think you just got to sit and kind of hang out with them sometimes and really, you know, kind of make your own judgment, I guess. Not based off of what you see on social media, not based off of what you see.

26:10 Speaker 5 Well, some of it you got to also. Because that's not fair, though. No, it isn't. But, you know, some of these guys have had some problems.

26:16 Speaker 4 they got some keyboard warriors and they're really good you know what i'm saying i'm like

26:22 Speaker 5 but and that's all they are keyboard warriors that they're they really they couldn't prove a point if you were face to face with them and that's what you gotta that's the danger that's the danger of it right but you you can't but you also go for it no it's just like you're right there but there are people who actually know some of these people and they tend not to want to make make the issue okay because they they you know like somebody came up to me at an event yesterday and they's like i listened to you every morning i'm like i had no idea that you listened at all because i'd never seen i know of you but i've never really i don't know you i don't know all the listeners i have no idea but he took the time to come up and say i listened to you every morning and then he said um i want to call but i i mean he says something what did he say he said i want on a call but i go well then call and he said no he has a lot to say but he didn't want to call because he's afraid that i would somebody would hear his voice and recognize it it's a talk show isn't that the case though isn't that the case with a lot of people that you talk to they think that their voices are so well known or something or they know that they think that people would recognize their voices i got you so they tend not to get on the air right there i'm like bro i will promise you that people listen to other people come on the voice and they don't recognize their voices but i guess they think my voice is distinctive so he's and i go well you know maybe one of these days if you find if you find the you know if you find it enough to call i i

27:51 will i'm pretty sure nobody will so anyway before he left the party okay he hands me this on a piece on a napkin okay and he writes desalination machine for general blast compound so it won't impact our local water table system okay so he's saying why can't we why can't you do why why can't they have their own water source up there so that the residents don't have to share their water that there's more for and there's less there's less of a problem supplying water to all these why don't they why doesn't the camp boss just have their own system where they draw water and take all of the saline out of it and then use that for drinking and i'm like and he said don't say who i am i'm like okay i won't i won't say anything but i will say i will say noted so he said i'm just putting it putting out there and so you know a lot of people say things and they don't want to be known that they're said say it because they don't want to put themselves out there and i get it i mean just don't be like a full-blown negative nancy you know

29:04 Speaker 4 we have enough karens on social media it's like okay clearly i know what party you are supporting it is very obvious you know some of them you can just tell it's like okay you're for this guy you

29:16 Speaker 5 know what i mean you can kind of and there's really nothing wrong with it as long as you're not i mean there's nothing wrong with it and there's some things that that happen i think all all the bashing can be overwhelming it can be smear campaigns are ugly and and and when when it bleeds into other people like your children and that part of your personal life it's really a lot of people don't stomach it but they like it it's like they they like to see the sensationalism they won't get involved i can't tell you how many times my friends my very close friends know how i feel about this in my career where i have brought something up that was highly controversial controversial and i'm backed by people quietly that want me to do it and i do it and i'm flopping out there in the wind by myself oh you know what i mean and i and so you got to be careful that if you bring up an issue you own the issue it becomes yours and you end up having to defend yourself over it and a lot of people don't want to be put in a position i see to have to on the radio say something and have the entire island fall you know come against you just like the situation that happened with josh tenorio at at his last big rally okay where comments inappropriately were made about specialized kids right and and and if josh tenorio had a chance to win that primary before that comment was made he lost it on that day when that guy made that comment

30:41 a lot of people came back and said they changed their minds they were you know i i couldn't tell you whether or not that that was the reason why josh lost but a lot of people will say i didn't vote for him because of that that's fact you can't people will make a comment that they thought it was insensitive and that's their right to do it i think that when you cross the line into like people's lives that are private with their children or the way that who they're married to their finances they have an impact on that person's whole um thing that's the package the whole package if you're if you're you know if you've got a juvenile delinquent kid who's you know having problems with the law and you're a high profile you know lawmaker that's going to come back to bite you that your kid has now cost you an election uh that same situation is josh Tenorio and his sister uh Charissa she's having problems with the law this is not the first time and this has not done him any favors for his political career and so that became front and center because it looks like it is and everybody draws the conclusion that's your sister so therefore you and somehow or another are going to be responsible for the actions of your sister fair Fair or not, that's, you know, that's how people will perceive you.

32:04 And so in this guy's, this guy and his comments, and read it for yourself and call me back if you think any one of them stand out. This guy's comments, where was he? On PDN, it's the Guam PDN poll that they ended last week and it came out, the results came out, like I said, 800 respondents. It's not a huge poll that involves thousands of people. That's what the election is. That's like the ultimate poll. But they did their own polling and they picked their top 15. Seven of them are Republicans. And this guy went down the list because a lot of people also don't do this publicly. Go down the list and say what they say about people. And I got to tell you, it was pretty funny, especially the ones he said. He said a couple about Chris Barnett. He said something about Jesse Lujan. You brought it up to yesterday was his birthday. they yes ma'am yeah they he brought up something about jesse luhan that is old as old can be but it still becomes it becomes um relevant uh to his time uh running for office and that was he made the point about an article that was done back in 2005 but i'm pretty sure jesse luhan uh it doesn't want anybody to remember about that muscle digest uh magazine where he was uh declared a cardiothoracic surgeon. There, I said it. Y'all are rumbling about it in my ear, but no one's really come out and really said it. So, okay, I said it. Some guys said it on social media as well. Are we coming

33:34 back to that? Are we going to go back to that? He's had a career as a senator since then.

You're gonna find a lot more delays over on that side. I just want to remind everyone that school buses are making rounds this morning. We have got to watch our speed limit. And just keep in mind, not every student is a bus rider. Some of our students are going to be walking to school this morning. So let's make sure that we watch our speed limit in the school zones this morning as well. We've got to keep our eyes on the roads. No distractions this morning, folks. Coming around that Jollibee intersection, it looks like traffic is definitely building up, up, as well as folks in Upper Tumon this morning. St. John's School, that traffic light intersection, you may have a little wait time there, as well as folks getting around that Kmart intersection, Village of Donkey North, as well as southbound traffic. Mongmong Tutu, Mighty, excellent job, guys. It looks like it's moving nicely along Route 8. We do have some buildup when you get around Payless in Mighty this morning, or coming around Mobile, Gas Station, McDonald's. We got Got some north as well as southbound traffic.

39:18 Route 10, Antelon Middle School, Barragota, as well as Route 10 in Manila. Traffic is definitely piling up. Folks rolling from Chalimpago trying to get up and around Ordot this morning, cruising through Sinajanya or Hagatnya. You may have a little wait time. Like I said, we have got a lot more students on the streets this morning, so we're going to have even more bus drivers. That means more traffic. So again, folks, allow braking distance, no distractions. Eyes have got to be on the roads, not on the phones, guys. Seatbelts are sexy.

45:19 45 now welcome back to the pro i'm gonna say problem uh there is a little bit of a problem getting some notes that are coming to me from employees um this was forwarded to me it looks like it was on a general chat hope all is feeling okay as for me i can't hold any food down since i went home and this is the first time i ever got like this i'm hoping tomorrow we get answers in regards to why they kept working on the ac when we are working and the public was exposed this according to the ac guy that was working on the unit said there was black mold and this is not good for both the employees and public that are exposed to this he recommended that osha needs to come in and run some tests on the building the landlord doesn't care because he's making millions while we are the one that is suffering every day everyone is sick at drt a lot of us got sick on wednesday and some are still recovering this is what the buzz is about over here they wanted to let me know okay buzz is buzzing okay so i i did i did send a note to marie lazama to ask them if they have they're having any ventilation issues with their hvac system to find out you know employees are there they they they know what the jig is you know what know what i mean you can't you can't sit you can't tell them that they're not feeling sick

46:47 uh because of um you know that they're not sick and and they'll tell you the reason why they're sick and they're saying the reason they're sick is because the air con is dirty i i haven't been to rev and tax tax in a while so i don't know um you know whether whether it's but i do i do know that is factual excuse me i do know it's factual that they've they've had problems over there in In fact, they were talking about how old that building is, and they've had air conditioning problems there and power issues and water issues in that building for a lot of years. It is a very old building, and they have a lot of leaks that happen when it rains very hard, and it's a warehouse, basically, and that's where they're operating this government division. division i think it's going to be it they when they had an oversight hearing on rev and tax the the question was can we move and they're going to have to they're going to have to figure out if moving is uh is is gonna is gonna be worth it because nobody has the money oh we got to clean an air they need an air condition cleaner well they said if there's black mold i'm not down for for the black yeah air con cleaner okay yeah black mold is not is not uh is not uncommon here

48:11 Speaker 4 either okay black mold no yeah i was gonna be like i'll go and flush out your air con but not

48:19 Speaker 5 not the black mold you don't want to be dealing with that yeah so i don't know uh we'll we'll we'll absolutely have to we'll actually have to see this uh ben's on the line what's up ben what's It's on your mind.

48:32 Speaker 2 Good morning, Patty. How are you?

48:35 Speaker 5 Hey, Ben.

48:37 Speaker 2 Remember that time when Dennis Rodriguez ran for governor? I mean, for lieutenant governor at the time?

48:43 Speaker 5 I know he ran for governor.

48:46 Speaker 2 Yeah. Who else ran there? I think Jesse Lujan, Calvary Terrence, and Julian Monroe, right?

48:54 Speaker 5 Yes, at one point, yeah.

48:58 Speaker 2 That was the time when they first started that, and then when they lost in that team, they ran to the Republican team. Remember that?

49:04 Speaker 5 They what?

49:05 Speaker 2 They ran to the Republican team.

49:09 Speaker 5 I don't know what you're saying.

49:12 Speaker 2 Like when they lost that championship game to go to the Super Bowl, to the playoffs. When they lost there, they ran to the other side again. There's a lot going on, but I guess that's your decision. You have the right to be a Democrat. Just turn around after you've been running Democrat for the last 30 years. Run to the Republican because you've got the right to do so if you want to. But some people say they're a diehard Democrat, still the one, all the way to San Jose. And then when they lost that game, they ran to the other team. It's gross to show that.

49:54 Speaker 5 I don't know what you're trying to tell me, Ben. Dan, break it down for me. What are you trying to say? Are you saying that there's going to be a mass exodus from one party to another?

50:04 Speaker 2 Something like that. I hear a lot of it going on, and a lot of people are, and it's like, well, you have the right to do that if you want to. But, you know, when you say you're a diehard pitch, diehard bat, and then when you lost that game to the Super Bowl, You know, you just have to change things, which is okay, because no matter what, the people are going to speak, and the right people are going to go into that office, man.

50:34 Remember that one where I did not pull that weapon?

50:39 Speaker 5 That would be Ray Tenorio? Is that the one you're talking about?

50:43 Speaker 2 Yeah, remember that one where he...

50:45 Speaker 5 Well, I mean, it wasn't that far back, but yeah, I do remember that.

50:49 Speaker 2 Yeah, he was down there at the blockbuster party, toasting all that Heineken, and he was blocked through that. He pulled his service revolver from his bodyguard, and he said, let's do that again.

50:59 Speaker 5 Well, you know that he was not found. He wasn't convicted of anything on that case. I know that.

51:04 Speaker 2 It was a teachable moment, remember?

51:07 Speaker 5 Well, that's what he said. So, I mean, you can't bring it up like he did it because it was alleged, and he was cleared of it in court.

51:13 Speaker 2 Yeah, and he was blocked through, and if that gun would have went up down there, somebody could have got hurt.

51:19 Speaker 5 Yeah, okay, so why are we going backwards again? What's the reason that we're going all the way back to Ray Tenorio on this?

51:26 Speaker 2 Well, there's a lot of stuff, like you said, a lot of them are actors and all that kind of good stuff. And I'm just saying that there's a lot of stuff that's being done on this island and allowed to get done. And we need to put a stop to that. We need to put the right people in there that's going to get this island back on track. and fix this island, no matter who goes in, because we've got a lot of fixing to do.

51:51 Speaker 5 Okay. Got you, Ben. Thanks a lot for the call, bro.

51:54 Speaker 2 Hey, but anyway, you doing good? Oh, I'm good.

51:57 Speaker 5 How about you? You doing good?

51:59 Speaker 2 I'm okay, and I remember that one where you said, they're coming to get you, Michael. They're coming to get you. Oh, are you talking about Halloween?

52:07 Speaker 5 The movie? Are you talking about Halloween? Michael Murray? Murphy? Murray? Michael? What's his name? Michael?

52:12 Speaker 2 Yeah, I'm talking about the K-57. movie you got me i don't know what you're talking about what was michael michael grant for um for governor michael michael nichols right oh yeah okay oh all right i i wow i'm confused okay we're

52:33 Speaker 5 good i'm i'm done i i'm he's all over he was kind of in a couple of places he was talking about mike syndicals i thought he was talking about halloween the movie what was the name of the character michael what is it i wanted to say murray but that's it michael what michael myers there we we go i guess something like that i thought that that's what he's talking about michael oh mike sinicolas hey you know what there's everybody oh yeah got a thick memory well ben's been been watching you know the proceedings for years and he's got clear opinions as most people do mike mike sinicolas when you have to remember that that that switching parties or taking an exodus from your party because they don't like the candidate has is has happened before and it And it's not like this is something new that that has happened, that people get rid of people in their party because they don't feel like they're Republican enough or Democrats, you know, don't always vote along with each other. and and and the michaelson nicholas thing was at for his part it was after he lost and uh he refused to assign the the loyalty pledge and i remember this was a big deal that a lot of people were i mean angry over the fact that he didn't pledge his allegiance to the democratic party and and and he still isn't necessarily doing so um being um in his current positions where

54:00 where he's been doing a lot of close work with Tony Atta. He was doing close work with him on IT stuff with that big controversial contract that they ended up having to end because there was so much of a public outcry that he might be championing right now Atta's run for governor. He might be stepping behind this Atta-Calvo team because he stands to gain employment or maybe even more contracts because he's been standing with Republicans on a lot of what they've been doing.

54:39 Again, this is not anything unique that people break with their party. And I think right now what Ben is alluding to is that this Democratic Party is not necessarily united in their support of Therese Terlohi. that they are not necessarily campaigning nor raising money or pledging their allegiance a lot of democrats are not necessarily this administration but a lot of democrats are not going to back therese there is a great deal of drama between democrats over therese terlohi and you find that there are a number of people that are for her and staunchly backing her up and there are others who say you don't know what goes on behind closed doors and i think they tried to give us a glimpse of it when she rallied the democrats together after the primary to see who was with her and who wasn't with her and so yeah there's there's been clear divides between therese and some of her democrat colleagues there's been a divide and i don't think it's a natural divide between republicans and therese that they had they had they were in cahoots with each other or they were in agreement with each other for a time there in the last couple of legislatures when she won the speaker's uh this the speaker's position uh but not so much anymore now there's a clear line between the democrats and the republicans uh on a support for

56:04 ada calvo who may just win if this con conversation keeps popping up and it even gets even louder with with those who were you know sending over those manila envelopes secretly secretly talking about who they're not going to defend as a Democrat, and it isn't going to be that team of Turlahi and Perez. That's the thing that's happening. Oh, my God, thank you. Did you know I needed that? Yes. How did you know?

56:35 Speaker 4 Aw, you're a good producer. I do my best. Did he come back?

56:38 Speaker 5 No, no, no, this is another one. Hey, Ben, what's up?

56:41 Speaker 2 Hey, thank you, thank you. Thank you very much. You know, going back to the Mike Snigdus AI contract, contract, $198,000 for six months of work, given by Tony Atta, and then also we have a $63,000 AI contract given by Chris Duenas, and the funny thing about this, Patty, is that these people, when they go on to public sessions or public hearings, they proffer accountability, transparency, being frugal with government money, but behind the scenes they're giving away all our money, and the AI contract was so bad, I mean, if you told total that up, that's $263,000 for about six months of work, averaging out to like $44,000 a month, and not many people even make that in a year, right? So Chris Duenas also talked about his performance-based budget, that's for accountability, but I don't see where he applied a performance-based budget when he was giving Mike this contract, and even when Tony gave the contract to Mike Stankus. And, you know, to further it, it just shows that when Tony canceled the contract, he wasn't sure about it when he first gave it out. And leaders need to make decisions that they can stand behind. And it just shows that when people call them out on this, especially Chris Barnett, when he blasted Tony, that's what just made us. And, obviously, that's not what we should be expecting from leaders. Leaders need to make sound decisions for the people, not for their friends. But thank you, Patty.

58:10 That's my comment for the day, and I appreciate it.

58:12 Speaker 5 you putting me on oh no no no problem hey it's your opinion and we welcome all of them unfortunately that was a blemish uh when that controversial contract it's ai by the way that controversial contact uh contract came up and and you know when people say thanks for the call ben um when when people say when people say uh you know a six-month contract it was worth two hundred and some thousand dollars i don't know what the scope of that contract was and you look at something like that and you go wow is it worth that whatever the scope of work was going to be has anything been done because if you have a small i mean a contract like that and if for six months then and very early into the life of this contract you should start to see the benefits of the contract because it's such a such a short time that they probably have to make some progress pretty quickly in order to justify uh the cost and the length of time it sounds like it was a they're using enough job to do that within six months of whatever it was they were installing or trying to monitor for AI would have been would have shown and if that wasn't showing then I guess there are questions about whether or not that was a lucrative contract that produced nothing but your point is well taken Ben's both of yours we're going to head into the eight o'clock hour now with some traffic from Dyson we'll take a look at your weather as well for the rest of the week We're KGU-MFM in Dededo, Guam.
