Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is what's trending, all right. President Joe Biden, he
finally addressed the nation publicly for the first time last night,
said dropping out of the presidential race four days earlier.
While giving the fourth Oval Office address of his presidency.
He said that he dropped out for the sake of
a unity. That's why he did it. So there. CrowdStrike,
(00:20):
this is the company, the cybersecurity firm that crash millions
of computers with the botched update all over the world
last week. They are offering an apology to their customers.
Now you got a thing about this, Like Delta is
a customer, you know America, a lot of major airlines.
Well Southwest isn't because they're on a Commodore sixty four.
They're using an original Nintendo to run the whole airline.
(00:43):
But Crowdstrikes sorry for the billions of dollars that they
cost people last week with their blue screen of death
because of their update. And so what do they do
to make it right? They sent some of their customers
their partners ten dollars Uber Eats gift cards as and
I'm sorry, oh not the people affected, even like they said,
Delta ten dollars Uber eaeds gift. Hey, sorry guys, sorry
(01:04):
about that. The gift cards were send it to well.
They were sent to the contractors who were helping to
manage the fallout of a disastrous software update that caused
a global tech meltdown last week. Millions of computers with
the Microsoft Windows operating system were hit with the blue
screen of death on Friday because of a crowd strike
glitch that left them unable to boot up. CrowdStrike has
been scrambling to salvage the crisis, which is expected to
(01:25):
cost fortune five hundred companies billions of dollars. How much
is CrowdStrike crowd strike? I'm just curious. Seventy six billion dollars.
Seventy six billion dollars and they out here eat it right.
I can't we get an appetizer right, Like I can't
even get a start talk? Why can't we get an appetizer?
(01:48):
A delivery fee? In the service charge? I didn't get anything.
I got a napkin, ten dollars water. Seventy six billion dollars.
That you, guys are a sign of the times. Like
that's the kind of things they've be giving us around here,
Like everybody's taking the breaches that we like, here, here's
five dollars off your next bill. I'm like, my information
is out there, bro right yeah, but someone else already
(02:08):
spent that with the information that you lead right right,
So that was their fix guys, ten dollars Uber eats
gift cards. Geez Uber's probably happy about that, because if
you get me a ten dollars Uber Eats gift card,
I have to spend more right to get great. It's
not even an it's tax, you know what I mean.
So so basically Uber eats makes me get crazy. Yeah. Yeah,
(02:29):
the cross tracks like, look, we'll make sure your stuff
never crashes, but we need some gift cards to send
it to people. I mean, I don't know how much
you could have. If I'm a contractor fixing your billion
dollar problem, I better be eating for free the entire time.
I better eating caviare and whatever else I want. Well,
I fix your billion dollar issue. Minnesota has passed a
new road law that they're calling the Jetson Law that
(02:51):
sets the stage for a new era of flying cars.
The law goes into effect, they're actually calling it that
the Jetson's Law on August first. Legislation officially declares a
roadable aircraft as a vehicle that can fly, both fly
and drive using public highways. The definition includes airplane to
car hybrid design for road use that are capable of
(03:12):
taking off and landing at an airfield on the road.
These innovative vehicles will be treated like cars when in
the air. You have to follow the FAA rules, and
you wouldn't be able to use the road itself as
the means for taking off. So I wouldn't be able
to just land and take off on the highway. Yeah, right,
Kennedy's messed up. I'm gonna take off right here and
(03:32):
then on the shoulder, I guess. And then I'm just
gonna land it over here and park my car next
to the plane and then just get on. You're not
gonna be able to do that. But they are only
the second state to pass laws regulating flying vehicles. So
I guess there's enough of these things out there they
got to have laws for Are we that close to
I guess? I guess. There you go. And here's another
(03:52):
sign of the times, guys. Nearly half of gen Z
thinks that being ten minutes late to work is the
same as being on time. They really ask people about
this and they really think that's true. Almost half of
gen Z thinks it being ten minutes late to work
is as good as being on time, but eighty percent
of boomers disagree. According to a survey that was conducted
(04:14):
by Meeting Canary, almost half of people aged sixteen to
twenty six, I think that's showing up to work between
five and ten minutes late is the same as being
on time. And I would have to disagree with that.
I mean, if you're being paid, you got to show
up at the time you start getting paid, right, right,
you know, I mean it's not like good. This isn't
like a casual hang. It's not optional, right yeah, right.
(04:36):
And plus if everyone else has to show up on
time and they're waiting on you, but you're getting paid,
that doesn't work. You can't do that. It's not good,
Which is why I think we just if that's the case.
I'm not picking on gen Z, but if that's true,
then we just start telling gen Z that work starts
at three fifty so that you'll be here at four,
you know what I mean. So so there you go.
(04:57):
We'll just adjust it just so happens around here. We
start at three fifty am. You see it four it's
National Wine and Cheese Day and National Hire a Veteran Day,
and National fred gets resuscitated by running a five k
later on today day as well, it's national you can
just remember this day is July twenty fifth, as you know,
(05:19):
just as you remember me each year from this point fortunes.
I won't be I'll be unlive tonight running a five k, which,
by the way, someone got out of I called it. Listen.
Someone else sometime on the show said said, oh, I
I'll run it with you. I'll run it with you
(05:39):
because because my trainer said, oh you you host that
five k for the children's hospital. Oh that's amazing. So
do you run it every year? I've never run it.
I've hosted it for like ten years. I've never run it.
He was like, well, you can host it and run
it this year, and that was three months ago and
it's tonight. Yeah. And I'm not happy about him because
i I'm oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll be ready for that.
I'm not ready for them. And I realize people who
(05:59):
run like you're an idiot. I run a five k
every day. I'm like, well, that's good for you. I'm
not that person, and then Rufe goes, oh, I'll run that,
and then over time it evolved into I'll walk that.
I didn't know there was a there's a one mile
walk that I didn't know. I could assign up born
and said that's for kids, right, No, I thought one
(06:21):
for kids and one this morning, Fred, I'm not coming
at all. Listen, Fred, what am I listening to? All Right?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Yes, I.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Did agree to run that with you, but this situation
has changed. We got this trip this weekend. I'm already
leaving my wife with a newborn and a four year
old three day trip. You didn't have to I have
to go on the trip. I think I did have
to go on the trip. No, you didn't have to.
I would have understood if you had to stay home
(06:55):
with your baby. I agree that. Here's what I want
to know, who's stepping up, who's running with me today?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
I totally wanted you actually would have with the stroller,
the jogging stroller.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I have a question is do you think that's easier
or harder to run with the stroller. I would almost
argue it's easier because I can like lean up against something. Right,
It's what I'm saying, push it forward, but I've never
done it because but you are pushing weight. Yeah, so
do you want to borrow my baby? No? No, I
don't want it. I don't want to be responsible for anyone,
(07:25):
but try to keep myself alive for this, which in
itself is wanted to be a challenge. But but I
I just wonder because I pushing, pushing something, it means
more effort, but then I'm leaning into it. So I
don't know. But if I were to lean on something
and run on a treadmill, it's still hard. Yeah. Like,
even if I'm holding onto the you know, handles or whatever,
(07:46):
and I'm still running, I'm still going to get tired
because my legs are still moving, even if I feel
like my arms are supported. So no, I no, no,
I don't think it's easier. I've just decided no, it's
not easier. Yeah, I totally would, but unfortunately I cannot
make it. Yeah, so she can't go. He can't. So basically, Kicky,
you guys want to tell me, I don't want to
tell them you're not gonna run the five K two.
(08:07):
I don't want to say anything. But I did sign
up for your team. I gave my thirty dollars. I'm
going to donate to hold on. Jason. I will be there,
thank you, But I'm not running. I'm not running, but
I will be in attendant, so you're not gonna do
I thought you guys were gonna hold me like on
one of those those things they use it like Indian
weddings where they bring the people in on the bed.
(08:28):
We'll do that for your intro. But no, no, no, I
thought I was laying on the gurney's run. Well, the
ambulance is for after the run, but I just thought
I thought I would be laying married and grapes. You
guys would be carrying me and then you guys, you
guys would need them the gurney after that. Jason just
going for Judy. That's what he's going for. Fred Shaw.
(08:50):
You're nowhere near giddy because he's gonna want to do
something to this body. That's actually why I can't make it,
because I don't know that time.

Speaker 1 (08:58):

Speaker 1 (26:43):
There's something did you know there's something that cheatahs cannot do?
Do you know what it is? Cheatahs cannot roar. Cheatahs
can purr, but they don't roar like lions. Did you
know that if you ever see a cheetah, it's not
(27:04):
gonna roll up in you and go rage rah rah
Rah's not gonna do that. It's not gonna do that.
It's gonna come up to you. My pur though. And
by the way, when I learn about purring, purring is
actually it's what it's not the cat being happy that
you're doing something. It's a sign of it wants you
(27:26):
to be happy. The pur is for you. The purr
is like reaffirmation for for others. Not it's not necessarily
that for you know what I mean? It's its way
of being showing love to you. Yeah, because I always
felt like if you pet a cat and it gets happy,
that it's purring because it's happy because it's happy. Maybe
that's true, but then it's also because it wants you
to be happy, you know. Okay, Okay, good there you
(27:50):
I mean, I'm just I'm a big I'm a big
cat guy. I'm gonna push it, but I'm gonna push
about happy more Fred show next right here.
