10-31-25 - 6am - Chick Fil A Fries and 15 Years of Food Stamps

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Michael and Dragon. Congratulations on the move, But hey, you
got to help us out. If you want us to
follow you to the new station, you got to tell
us what it is. Every time you talk about the
new station, it cuts out on the fourth letter.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
What station are you going to? Koa? What it's? It's
the ko Koa Campground right down near the what's it
called that speedway between Pueblo and color of Springs. There's
a Koa camp It's it's near fountain somewhere, so you

(00:35):
gotta go down the fountain. Yeah, not the water fountain,
but the fountain town, the towntown fountain. It's the Koa Campground.
That's where we're going. Because we're leaving.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
K H O W.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Chick fil A change their waffle fry recipe by adding
a coat that contains pea starch. This change was made.
This is serious. Listen, this is serious. This affects the
relationship between me and my producer. So just bear with us.
While we worked our private matters out.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
Publicly, you had texted me said you were going to
do this. Part of me didn't believe you because we
already wasted so much time on it. But don go ahead.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
There are earballs out there just waiting to hear about
Chick fil A fries. And it's Friday. And you know
when you're when you're changing jobs, which I'm not really changing.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Jobs, not just yet. I mean that that doesn't happen.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
But all right, do you know when you're you have
a vacation plan? Do you know when you got a
day off plan? Your mind's already there?

Speaker 3 (01:48):
Give me that's not for a whole in the wit.
You have to come to work all of next week?

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Do I I have unused vacation time? Do you think
that would approve it?

Speaker 3 (02:01):
Probably not?

Speaker 2 (02:05):
He actually might? I know? Why don't I get just go?
I can't. I can't show up in time anyway for
rosta show.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
Glad somebody brought that up.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
I was busy yesterday. I had, I had, I had,
I had phone calls from from the Martinez Show that
I had to take care of. Golly. Chick fil A
changed their waffle recipe recipe their waffle fry recipe by
adding a coating that contains pea starch. This change, maybe
this is why I slept so well last night. I

(02:40):
had peace starch in me. The change was made to
make the fry stay crispy or for longer, while maintaining
the same great taste. The new recipe does not contain
any of the nine major allergions, but the addition to
peace starch has raised concerns. This is the Chick fil
A itself has raised concern among people with pete or
peanut oueez. Customer reactions have been mixed, with some appreciating

(03:03):
the crispiness and ose feeling that's a new fries now
tastes bland or dry compared to the original recipe. The
change was tested in various markets for over a year
before being widely implemented. I had promised my mom and
would get her a new iPad, so I had.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
To go buy These two things will correlate here in
a second.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Everything's going to correlate here in a minute, So I
had to go by my But after the program yesterday,
my day was just totally fed up.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
It was just whose fault was that?

Speaker 2 (03:33):
It was yours? Truly, because I'd left my earballs on
the cubicle out here, so I forgot about it.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
I was curious why you weren't sitting at your desk
for a few minutes after the show.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
Usually I stop at my desk for a few minutes
after the show to wipe all the spittle off my
laptop and just to you know, take the Michael Brown
minutes and some of this copy and stuff and put
it in the pile and you know, just pack things up.
And then I leave and I get a call from
Mark may Or about Frank Durant. So I'm you know,
I'm talking. So I answer the call and I'm talking

(04:05):
or acting. He sent me a text please call me.
So I called him and I answer the phone and
I'm just walking. I just I just get up, start
walking out of the building.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
Zombie mode. You're done.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
I'm in zombie mode. I'm in zombie mode because, be
quite honest, because he's probably still asleep, I can say this.
Mark Meger will just put you to sleep. So I'm
sleep driving and sleep talking on my mobile phone. And
I go out to the parking lot. I'm still talking.
I get in the car and I'm just driving and
I'm needing to go to the garage, which is where

(04:37):
you know, the garage dot expert, which is where you
need to go to get any maker model of your
car repaired. Because I got to take the beamer in
to get a service next week, and I want to
see Paul, just my guy there, just because it's easier
to schedule in person. You don't have to do that.
It's just for me easier because well, because I get
special I get special spensation. So my mind is trying

(05:05):
to talk to Meger, trying to get to the garage,
and eventually trying to get to the Apple store at
Aspen Grove so I can pick up an iPad.

Speaker 3 (05:11):
For my mom, and completely forgetting about.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Oh, I'm supposed to go on the Kaminski Show, and
I finished with Mark Meger, and I'm just headed down,
you know, Bellevue, just you know, trying to watch for
the speed traps yet try kind of in a hurry.
And my phone blows up, text messages from you, phone
calls from a Rob blah blah blah everybody, I mean
the tapper. Everybody's like, brother, hell are you? And I'm like,

(05:38):
for what what? A Rod? I think it was a
Rod got me on the phone. Hey, you're supposed to
be Oh crap. So I do a U turn. I
pull a uie. I I've been concerned about speed trapping,
yet I just do a U turn right in the
middle of Bellevue and and then speedback here and get in.
Of course I catch holy crap for it, including you know,

(06:00):
I get a calendar invite. I get a calendar in
you utiful. I'm just which I I. When I finished
with Mandy yesterday, I went by Tepper's office and just said,
very well played. That was very well played Dragon, And
I get a calendar invite inviting me starting Monday, November

(06:20):
ten to go to Koa from nine to noon to
do a show. And the invite includes Dragon will provide
you instruction directions to the studio. That was good. So
I saw it and I declined. I declined the invite.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
I accepted it. I accepted it before really looking at it.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
And now is it stuck on your calendar?

Speaker 3 (06:46):
It's not stuck there, But when when I accepted it,
it filled out because it was every weekday for eternity
until the end of time.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
Til the end of the time, it was just went, went.
And when the problem is my my stupid extra change.
iHeart exchange when you use Microsoft Exchange. It then populated
my calendar. Well, I had already flipped and changed, deleted
you know k how and added k away because I
got to block that time out to make sure that
if anybody's trying to schedule anything and they have access

(07:16):
to my calendar, if you know, they can't use that time. Well,
it did the same thing. It populated for eternity, and but.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
It now didn't accept you declined.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Because when I knew it was a joke. But and
I declined because I also knew it was going to
populate my calendar, which.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
It did even after even after.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
I declined it for some reason, iCloud takes the exchange
server and grabs that and puts it on and I
would I would delete and then try to click on
delete all, and it wouldn't let me delete all. So
now my calendar is all screwed up. It's just cluttered
with all of these invites and I can't get it done.
So I finally text Tepper and Set and can you

(08:00):
could you please just give me a favor and cancel
this because my calendars, my my laptop, my personal lap.
I guess they could have bought me. Well, that wouldn't
have fixed anything, because when I blogged back kidding, I'd
still sink back to the cloud. So I asked him
to cant, Would you please cancel the invite, So now,
would you please cancel my invite to show up for

(08:21):
the new program starting in November ten? He did, but
he didn't change anything in my laptop. I ended up
calling Apple support last night and they were confused. They
couldn't figure out why, so we just went through the
different things just to try to make it go.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Away, all because you completely forgot about something you were
supposed to do on the new station you're supposed to
be on, which I'm all excited.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
About until you spaced it out. So then I show
up early for Mandy and then I just you know,
I don't care, because you know it does. I did
wait a little while because it bugs me when people
come into my studio and sip you know here when
I'm trying to do work. Right, Yeah, it does. So
I tried to stay out of Mandy's space until she

(09:04):
went to a break, and then I moved in. Well
I didn't realize that their clock was slightly different, but
she was so anyway, long story short, I end up
in there a little early, but you know, she had
fun with it, and she meets you know, Oh, you
can't show up for one, but you show up early
for another one. Yeah, that's pretty much me. I finally
got it off my calendar. I had to beg Temper

(09:26):
to cancel. So did that take it off you?

Speaker 3 (09:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, well it didn't take it off mine,
and I had to call Apple support. Yes, and then
I had and so Apple finally came up with an
idea that said, now, this is risky, but I think
we think this will work. You need to go into
your accounts, your email accounts, and on your exchange account.
You need to turn off calendar that will delete everything

(09:52):
that you've ever had from an exchange on your calendar.
But we think when you turn it back on, you know,
delete it. Turn it off, about thirty seconds turn it
back on. And so I turned it off and I
could see on my calendar just everything starting to disappear, yes,
including meetings with clients and everything else coming up. And

(10:12):
I thought, oh crap, this is making it even worse.
And then I so then I turn it back on
and boom, everything comes back except the stupid thing from Depper.
What a day. I'm so glad it's Friday. I can't
see straight between the Oklahoma trip, everything going on with
the change. Moving to the Koa Campground. All of that,

(10:34):
I'm just.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
Like Boom and Chick fil A Fries and.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
Chick fil A Fries. So I finally finish with Ross,
I get to the garage. By the way, they love you, guys.
They absolutely love the people that have taken my advice
and gone to the garage. Colorado Springs, Parker, and Inglewood
are the three locations, and they do fantastic Trust me,

(10:57):
if you're going to dealership, stop it. If you I
don't care how new or old your car is and
what make or model it is, you got to go
to the garage because they do such fantastic work. Anyway,
So I go in and see Paul and jam and
talking to them, and then I go to Aspen Grove
to pick up my mom's iPad, and I forgot that
in the parking lot of the Aspen Grove shopping Center

(11:20):
is a Chick fil A. So I think, oh, this
is a good opportunity because it's now about you know,
almost noontime. I'm hungry because I don't eat breakfast because
I get up so early. So I'm thinking I'll go
in there and I'll have a spicy chicken sandwich. The
Deluxe spicy chicken sandwich without the cheese and the fries,
and I order large fries with it because I'm just

(11:43):
thinking they're either really good or really bad, but I
don't care. I'll just get the large fries.

Speaker 3 (11:46):
So my recommendation, and all of the goober listeners who
have texted in left talk backs about how gross and
disgusting the new fries are, you still decided to go
ahead and give it a try.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Do you think for a second that I trust what
the goobers say, or what in particular what you say.

Speaker 3 (12:09):
And besides coming it was, you know, three to one,
four to one people going these are gross.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
And what amazes me is I that even encourages me
more to go find out for myself. So I did.
So I sit down at the table, I order a
table service, and I'm sitting there and I'm I'm ext
for doing stuff. And this nice old man comes over
and hands me my tray and says, oh, you look
awfully busy, and I just say, well, it's been kind

(12:35):
of crazy morning, you know, And it puts the tray down.
So I I open a thing of ketchup, I pull
out a fry. I look at it. How does it look,
I know, I'm looking at it. I break it into to.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
See it the yellow and looking well.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
I'm trying to see if it folds over or if
it breaks open. And it actually breaks open, nothing will.
That's pretty crispy. It broke open. So I lay that
fry aside because I now want to I don't want
to take that one. I want, you know, I want
a whole fry, a new one. Does this show how
pathetic My life is? Very very pathetic, isn't it? So

(13:13):
then I get another fry. I get, you know, a
larger one where you can kind of fold it and
dip it in the ketchup. So I kind of fold
the fry, dip it in the ketchup, take a bite
of it, and I'm thinking, ohoh, that's pretty crispy. Oh
that's hmm. That's a little different, but it's pretty good.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
So you acknowledge that it is different than what they.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Used to be. Here's what reminds me of sort of
but not really, but it just reminds me of this.
When I was growing up, a friend of my parents
opened an A and W franchise. Man, we're re excited
because you know, small town Oklahoma, I mean the closest
McDonald's for you know, forever, was like Emerald, Texas. The

(14:00):
fries that end up Maybe true, I haven't been to
an aw in a thousand years, but their potatoes were
like pringles. It was like that kind of It's like
they had made the fries formed out of a powder
or something, gotcha, And they were crispy on the outside
but somewhat soft on the inside. That's kind of what

(14:20):
these remind me of. That when you bite into these fries,
they are crispy, but the inside is slightly I don't know,
it's not mushy, but it's just soft. It's soft. But
I found them somewhat and they were fine.

Speaker 3 (14:36):
They were fine, They were fine.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
Well, they're they're not McDonald's fries. But did I have
a white I have a wide taste of variety of fries.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
Are they Are they better than what they were? Well?

Speaker 2 (14:50):
Okay, well this is this is where I need I
have a therapy session with a psychiatrist this afternoon because
I'm now confused because everybody told me how bad they
were and I'm thinking they're not that bad. They're not.
They're not the best fries in the world, but I
expected crap, but I expected this peace stuff peace.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
You not answered my question? What are they better than
how they were.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
The ones I had yesterday? I would say yes.

Speaker 3 (15:20):
Oh wow, yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
And I literally did not ask for extra crispy. I
just wanted to see what Why do I get just
you know, a normal customer walking in, no special requests.
I thought they were good. Huh, I forgot. I think,
you know, sometimes you eat someplace just too often. I
think I've eaten too much Chick fil a so I
was kind of burned out on it.

Speaker 3 (15:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Yeah, but I still had like eighteen dollars on my
app so I don't care. I'll just go do this.
That chicken sandwich was pretty darn good.

Speaker 3 (15:51):
Oh the chickens still great. They haven't touched that, and
it's phenomenal chicken sandwiches and chicken fries.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Yeah pass huh.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Well, I just I'll swink through at Arby's and get
the curly fries.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
No, you know Arby's has now crinkle fries. Oh, criinkle fry.
Oh I can get it. Uh uh not steak and
shake shake shack or whatever it is. Uh, the the
crinkle fries. He has a little crinkle fry. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
you can get those there. But the curly fries are
still good. Oh crinkle frieser if pretty darn good, pretty

(16:31):
darn good. We're French fry connoisseurs. Uh. So there's that.
I felt this take the entire segment. It didn't kaaway
starting Monday, November ten, from nine to noon. Now, I
know that some of you have complained about it because

(16:51):
it's going to mess up your listing schedule. You can
always the download. Oh somebody else specifically on the text
line does the podcast change? It does not. If you
subscribe to the podcast, you will still get the podcast.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
It'll clearly be uploaded later since the show ends later. Right,
nothing will change it.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Right that you will still get the podcast. What else
do they need to know?

Speaker 3 (17:18):
People asking about who's going to be filling in here
during this time slot, and.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
They're they're they're they're holding auditions. So if you're interested,
auditions will be held on Sunday, December twenty fifth, four am.
Because you got to get up at four am, depending
on where you live, you got to get up pretty
damn early. Now, got I'm concerned now about rush hour
because I've been avoiding rush hour both coming and going

(17:45):
from here, and now I'm going to be right in
the middle of Russia to be here it you know,
before nine am.

Speaker 4 (17:54):
I just appreciate you guys talking about nothing significant for
a while. My braid time to wake up so I
can focus when you start talking about the serious stuff
that I want to pay attention.

Speaker 3 (18:06):
To have a good Friday.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
The most fascinating, not one of the most fascinating things,
but one of the fascinating things to me about radio
is for every one of you who likes it, when
we goof off like this, there are as many that
get pissed off because we talk like this. It's it's
it's a great life lesson in learning to never try

(18:33):
to please everyone. Got to please yourself reminds me of
a song you just got You've got to do what
you think is best, and you got to do what
just comes naturally, and then people can just swerve in
and swerve out. So this is that's what we do.
Yesterday we talked a little bit about the snap program
and went through some of the figures of you know,

(18:55):
who's getting it, who's not getting up. The bottom line
is there's about twelve of the American population that is
on food stamp benefits the SNAP program because you can't
say food stamps anymore because somehow that's that's embarrassing. Well,
I think embarrassment is no longer a consideration whatsoever. Now

(19:17):
I want to tie something that I heard, Remember Judge Piro,
Judge Janine Pierro, who was one of the talking heads
on Fox News. You know, she's now the US Attorney
for the District of Columbia. She was doing a press
conference yesterday because they have captured a I think a
either a third or fourth suspect in the beating up

(19:39):
and the almost killing of that DOGE employee that was
working for the administration attempt at car Jockey, And she
started going through this kid's right. This kid is eighteen
years old and his rab sheet is a mile long.
And she kept talking about how they have a program

(20:01):
in DC that is something about the incarceration reform or
the word incarceration, isn't it, which is another term for prison,
a incarceration reform, incarceration, diversion. It doesn't make any difference.
It was just incarceration. And the program is designed to

(20:24):
keep even the most violent teenage offenders out of jail.
And it's obviously a failure. Now I know that if
you have, if you're eighteen years old and you've already
been arrested twenty four times, even if we put you

(20:44):
in jail. She gave an example of a guy that
was charged with and found guilty of, or played guilty to,
attempted murder attempted murder, the sentence for which was twenty
five years. Under this incarceration program, the maximum sentence can
be fifteen years, but the judges, I don't have to

(21:06):
put him in prison at all. And that's precisely what
was happening. That's what's going on with this new suspect
that they've arrested, is that he has, you know, all
these charges, armed robbery, attempt to murder, everything. I mean,
it's just the guy's a dirt back and I'm sorry
he's eighteen years old, but he needs to be in prison,

(21:27):
and he needs to be in prison for at least
twenty five years. And I was doing the calculation he'd
be you know, if he was eighteen years old, twenty
he's going to be you know, forty three years. Or
let's see tooth twenty five and eighteen thirteen, forty three
years old. What it doesn't make me a difference to
me forty three years old. He's going to come out

(21:49):
because our prisons are not really designed to reform. They're
not designed to rehabilitate. I mean they should be, but
they're not. So he'll come out by more likely than not,
he'll come out a bad individual, to which I say,
so what, He's already a bad individual, so we're not

(22:12):
It's not like we're compounding the problem. He's going to
be bad respective of whether he goes in or not
goes in. I want him off the streets because he's
a danger to the public. But I took it to
another thought, to another level of thinking. How is it
that an eighteen year old kid has so much time

(22:35):
on his hand that he's not doing anything and has
turned to a life of crime because he has nothing
else to do. I think I know why, and that's
because one our programs like Snap. And somebody mentioned this
on the text linam so I'm not going to look

(22:56):
up your number, look quick, but said in yesterday in
response my discussion about the Snap program that the one
word they don't see mentioned anywhere is the word father
or dad. And you're you're exactly right. These social welfare programs,
the you could argue, I can argue both sides. Unintended

(23:20):
or intended. Consequence is that we have broken up the
nuclear family. We have made it so that mothers don't
need fathers, fathers don't care about their their baby mamas,
and so they just have kids and they just you know,
they they populate like rabbits, and then they just go
out and they have nothing to incentivize them to make

(23:45):
anything of themselves. They don't have to survive in the wild.
You've seen photographs, it's you've seen videos driving through And
don't get me wrong, this is not black or white,
or Asian or anything else. You can find it among
every race. You can find it among every ethnicity. It

(24:09):
is the individual. It is not their race or ethnicity,
or their religion or anything else. It is that we feed,
clothe hows and take care of them. And so therefore
they have zero incentive to ever change or to ever

(24:30):
become a productive member of our society. So all of
the money that we have thrown at poverty, that we
have thrown at the social safety net, has completely destroyed
the fabric of this culture. I give you just listen
to this, and for.

Speaker 5 (24:51):
Me, because I've been on food stands for the past
fifteen years, do you do realize that I qualified four
foodstaands because of my income, right, because I don't have
any income. I haven't had income in the past fifteen years.

Speaker 6 (25:05):
And I have been.

Speaker 5 (25:05):
Able to have my bills paid, my food paid for,
and I'm in Section eight housing. Okay, these are all
programs that I'm entitled to because I do not make enough. Okay,
So before you go in past judgment on someone, realize
that everyone's life situation is not going to be the
same as yours.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
Thank god, it is not the same. Let's analyze this quickly.

Speaker 5 (25:31):
And for me, because I've been on food stands for
the past fifteen years.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
Fifteen years now when we have a program, now, this
woman does not appear to be at all disabled or
anything wrong with her other than she's just backcrap crazy.
This woman has been on this program for fifteen years,
living off you and me, the people that work to

(25:57):
pay the taxes, and then our children, our grandchildren, in fact,
for that matter, our unborn great grandchildren. Because this program
is part of the program that puts this country into debt.
That's creating the fiscal, the monetary, and the debt crisis
that we are facing fifteen years.

Speaker 5 (26:17):
You do realize that I qualified four food stamps because
of my income, right because.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Of her income. So we look at somebody, Now, she
must be making some money. I'm just gonna just that's
a big ass assumption on my part. But I'm going
to assume that she is making some.

Speaker 5 (26:34):
Money because I don't have any income.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
I have a Oh wait a minute, So she qualified
based on her income. Then she tells us that she
has no income. Of course, she has no income unless
you don't count Section eight housing, food stamps, everything else
that she's getting paid for by the taxpayers.

Speaker 6 (26:59):
At income in the power fifteen years.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
I've had no income in the past fifteen years, your honor,
arrest my case. We disincentivize anybody from trying to figure
out a way to feed themselves, house themselves, take care
of themselves. We actually create these monsters. Now I'm not
saying she's a monster, but the eighteen year old kid
that's been arrested in DC is a monster. I understand

(27:24):
he's made the image of God. I understand he's a
human being, and I understand that we need to figure
out some way to better handle people like him. But
currently he is a monster because he's a danger to
the people that live in the district of Columbia. I
don't know whether this woman has kids or not, but
if she has kids, she is perpetuating. She in perpetuity.

(27:48):
This kind of lifestyle where you just expect everything to
be handed to you and you never have to take responsibility.
You never have to take accountability. There is no incentive
whatsoever for you to you know what, it might be
nice to be able to go have my own income
and make some of my own choices.

Speaker 6 (28:04):
And I have been able to have my bills paid.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
I got my bills paid, my food paid for, my
food paid for.

Speaker 6 (28:11):
And I'm in Section eight housing.

Speaker 2 (28:13):
And I'm in Section eight housing. These programs are destroying
this country.

Speaker 5 (28:22):
Okay, these are all programs that I'm entitled to because oh.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
Well, excuse me, sweetheart, I'm sorry. These are programs that
I am entitled to.

Speaker 6 (28:31):
I do not make enough.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
Because I don't make enough. Well, which is it, do
you not make any Do you not make enough? But
even if you don't make enough, we've still provided her
for the past fifteen years, Public assistance, which completely totally
exonerates her from any responsibility to care for herself.

Speaker 6 (28:51):
Okay, so before you go and pass judgment on.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
Something, Oh sweetheart, I'm passing judgment. I am passing judgment
because you are a drain on society. You are a
drain on this country, and you are absolutely I don't
know why. I don't know where religion is, but I

(29:16):
believe the God expects us to be productive. God expects
us to do something, not just to sit around our
fat asses all the time and not do anything and
expect everybody else to take care of us.

Speaker 5 (29:29):
I when realize that everyone's life situation is not going
to be the same as yours.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
Yeah, but what I do I also realize this is
that we have created people like you. Absolutely created people
like you. And this is why when they tell me
this for the children that people are going to be,
they're going to starve to death, I say, I don't
want them to starved to death, but I say, good,

(29:56):
maybe being hungry might be an incentive to get off
your fat ass and go find a way to feed yourself.

Speaker 7 (30:04):
Hey, Mike or Michael, I was wondering, when you guys move,
are you gonna take Ryan's my little ponies with you
or are you going to give them back to him?

Speaker 3 (30:16):
Just inquiry minds one.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
I'm to go the my little ponies are in Angola
and they're quite happy and they don't want to come back.
So we talked to them. We offered to bring them,
you know, we were going to get them first class
airfare United Airlines come back, but they have to they'd
have to come through Newark, and so they decided they'd

(30:38):
rather just stay in Angola. So they're going to stay
in Angola. I don't know what they're gonna do over here,
you know, because I'm I'm irreplaceable. I mean, it's just
it's it's so it's gonna be so difficult to find
a talent, as you know. I think I think the
first day over there, I should make sure I wear
my little talent you know name Badge, don't you kidding?

Speaker 3 (30:59):
It's six oh six, people have one minute into the
new show. People have already forgotten about you. O kid yourself.

Speaker 2 (31:09):
Now, that'd be the I think we have of the
Jury of twelve and the alternate. The alternates questionable right now,
but we can always find an alternate. Alternates are easy
to find. But of the twelve, there's only two so
far that have indicated that that you know, they ain't changing.

(31:30):
And I'm like, you know, sorry, get a new job,
you know, quit your job, do whatever it takes.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
Go on Snap for fifteen one.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Snap for fifteen years exactly. Go on Snap for fifteen years,
and then you can listen from nine to noon.

Speaker 3 (31:45):
By the way, you can see that video at Michael
says go here dot com right now.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
I hope you share that with friends, because now I
take her at her word. I don't think this is
you know, every time I see one of these, not
every time, but most of the time when I see
these videos, I think to myself, this is somebody just
trolling me. I think this woman is very, very sincere.

(32:10):
If now, I don't think I could do it. I've
I've worked my entire life. I you know, my very
first job I worked in junior high. My dad knew
the local the guys own the local barbershop, and they
were looking for a shoe shine guy on the weekends.
So I would going on Saturdays and shine shoes. And

(32:32):
I'll never forget getting that first quarter for shining a shoe.
I thought that was Oh my gosh, I just I
just made a quarter, and you know I might make
four or five dollars on a Saturday, make more than that.
It's there's something about being productive and being compensated for
being productive that I think is what we were meant

(32:58):
to do. If all you do, if all you do
is collect, and in fact, you don't even have to
go to the post office now they just electronically add
to your ebt guard, so you feed yourself without ever
having to lift a finger, just go to the grocery store,

(33:19):
because there's no limitation on it. There's you know, when
you when you really dig deep into snap, there's no requalification.
That's that's why someone like her just fifteen years just
stays there forever. She has no incentive to change her
life whatsoever. And I think the other side of that
equation is that she's not a productive member of our society.

(33:41):
She's not adding to our contributing to our society whatsoever.
But the flip side of that is all of you
that are out there. You know, so I twenty five
is shut down right now at Santa Fe or Alameda somewhere.
You're sloving to work today so that you can pay
for the food and the electricity, and the natural gas

(34:04):
and the gas in your car, and the car payment
and the mortgage payment and everything else, so that you
can feed yourself. And I hope you're in a job
that you actually feel like you're doing something, so you
have a meaning meaningful life, and you're listening to me,
which makes it even more meaningful. What's she doing nothing?
