Sixteen percent of Americans say they loveroller coasters. I thought that that would
be a lot higher. I wouldthink so too, not surprisingly heavily depending
(00:44):

couple of times. Scoop and Ihave got an early entrance to elitches when
they get a premiere a ride.Well, a couple of years ago they
did the brain drain and it's justthat badass cool loop and I loved it.
It's just like you just go overover over, no whatever. I
(01:25):

down and ride this, and he'slike, all right, I'll probably write
it just once, so we geton it. And man, I'm gonna
tell you he had he had theworst look on his face the entire time.
I thought he was gonna yat rightthere on the ride and he gets
off and I'm like, let's goagain, because it was like a media
day. And man, I musthave rode that thing, I honestly got
(01:47):
I must have rode that thing twentyfreaking times that day, at least,
I swear man. I wrote thatthing for hours hours. At one point
they just stopped asking you to getoff right right, just let me stay,
And I was just like what soSo anyway, he never wrote again
after that. Nope, No,not one time was good. Anyway.
I love them all right. Youwant your kids to eat their vegetables,
(02:12):
of course you do. Every parentwants your kids to eat the vestibles.
Well, believe or not, yougotta eat yours first, fifty three percent
of parents with young kids notice theirkids eating unwanted vegetables when they eat their's
first, just to mimic the parents. Oh okay, so they go use
that to your advantage. Thirty yearold driver Kans crashed his vehicle on four
(02:36):
twenty because he was staring with hisknees while trying to light a joint.
Look, this dude's a dumb ass. Anybody can't light a joint and steer
at their knees, well, theyshouldn't be on the road. Period.
Should be a few I don't knowdrivers tasked out. I'd be including one
of them. I mean, onehand on the wheel, one hand on
(02:57):
the lighter and the joint in yourmouth. Come on, I could drive
everything. I could drive completely towork with my knees like, I would
never have to touch the wheel.I'm an expert at it, all right.
You want to know what's invading U? There is un and armadillo invasion.
Oh armadillos. Yeah, what's out? The armadillos are coming. Armadillos
(03:22):
are coming, those scaly little critters. Um Stelli expanded north from Texas for
a couple hundred years now, andapparently that movement is rapidly accelerating. Now.
Armadillos have been decided in North Carolina. Um, and it looks like
(03:42):
they're moving north. So just tolet you know, Armadillos are on their
way and they're mad as hell.They're like a gigantic roly poly bug.
So they went from Texas to SouthCarolina. Yeah, that seems there's quite
a jump there. Yeah, Imean, yeah, it's another one hundred
(04:02):
and fifty years. We'll have himhere in Denver. Oh wait, we
don't have armadillos here, not inDenver. Maybe they have them in Pueblo,
like they have him in Pueblo.Yeah, I feel like they do.
Why am I surprised that there's Imean, I feel like I've seen
(04:26):
those before. I'm almost certain I'llsee those dead on the road before.
Oh, believe it or not,Armadillos do live in Colorado, although they
are relatively new to the state.Yeah. I've seen those piped on the
side of the road before. Like, damn, there's a squash roly poly
bug. All right. Third gradeteacher in Austin, Texas, came under
(04:46):
fire because she conducts her class wellapparently content in her class. She went
to Apparently she put up a coupleof videos, said you think I was
teaching way out west, but thisis downtown Austin. She says, I
got pulled into a quote check inmeeting with my administrator at school, and
she had this lovely list of concernsthat she wanted to bring to my attention,
(05:11):
Sophie explains in the video, andincluded that Sophie is intentionally teaching her
third grade students about their rights.Huh. Apparently a lot of people were
like, oh, what's wrong withteaching kids about their rights? Commenters on
her video were equally upset that thenotion of teaching young students about their own
(05:32):
rights is somehow seen as threatening.Others are unsurprised by this behavior, especially
given that has taken place in thestate of Texas. Let's you know,
things are getting wild out there.You can't teach kids about their rights,
all right? Speaking of rights,this poor bus driver here in Colorado,
(05:54):
he's now facing thirty charges of childabuse. Now, look, we saw
the video and it's a good breakcheck. But apparently the kids weren't You
got that video open line? Canwe share it? But look, the
kids weren't paying attention. He apparentlygiving them a warning to sit in their
seats. He told them several timesover because at the point of the video
where it's, you know, timefor break check, he actually says over
(06:16):
this figure, would you like tosee why you need to stay in your
seats or why you gotta follow thoserules? He's like, would you like
to see it? And then hebreak checks them, and man, a
couple kids go sliding off the seat. One kids looks like he's sitting on
his little jacket, which is likea vinyl puffy coat, you know,
and he just goes Kids getting breakchecked is right up there with high speed
(06:40):
police chases. I can watch thoseall day long. It's look hours of
it on a loop. There's notmuch that would make you smile quite like
seeing a kid fly out a busseat. I'll just say, you probably
need to check that out feel alittle bit better about your day. Bus
seats are just inherently dangerous, right, And look, you gotta get kids
ready because what if there was areal break check, what if somebody jumped
(07:01):
out in the front. You gottaget them kids ready. Look, you
could go at anytime, So sitdown, shut up, stay in your
seat. But honestly, the kidgetting like flown up the seat the front
is pretty epic. Anyway, there'svideo obtained and apparently is having a much
first twenty twenty three, Castle RockElementary School students riding the bus home.
(07:25):
The bus driver sixty one year oldcat named Brian Fitzgerald Toad. He took
Thugan's County School District officials he wassorry for his actions. However, he
did defend his actions. He claimedhe was trying to educate and control the
students riding the bus. I thinkhe did The children said, oh my
god, why do that? Whydid he do that? Are you okay?
(07:51):
The students range from kindergarten sixth grade. Look, man, they bounce
off everything right, like, comeon, kindergarten sixth grade. No kids
were hurt. One of us tohas called his parents and reported the incident.
Um, the bus driver hit thebrakes and somebody got hurt. It
(08:11):
looks like that jill dropped Oh Iguess when he dropped off one of the
kids. He started crying and themum picked up the little girl was like,
what's wrong? He hit the brakes. Anyway, it has a couple
of the parents. Um, talkingabout the kids coming home and saying he
(08:33):
slamming the brakes. Anyway, thirtycounts of child abuse. That's a little
much. He did lose his jobtoo, you know. See he lost
his job. Relaxed, you gotwhat you wanted. He's canceled. He's
like, y'all want to see whyyou need to stay in your seats.
I mean he did give him awarding, right, I hope you feel good
(08:54):
about getting a bus driver canceled.Yeah. A guy in Indiana claims you
can protect your car from summer heatby a slattering it in cow poo oh.
Next thing that's surging in the pricewore out there? Flower. Just
let you know Flower has jumped ininsane amount. Yeah. In the news
(09:15):
here it's this guy. Depend onwhere you're at, it jumped, all
right, So this is pretty funny. Last Thursday, pleased in Florida poort
over thirty four year old guy namedDaniel Berrera. He was driving with the
revoked license. They looked in theside of his car saw a large clear
bag that was filled with powder.Daniel told the cops it's chili powder that
(09:37):
his family sent him from Guatemala.Well, that sounds delicious. That that
chili powder hunt here's the problem.Cops tested it and it was a chili
powder. However, it was heroin, oh, twenty nine point seven grams
of it. It doesn't say whatthe color of the to quote chili powder
(10:00):
was, but chili powder is normallybright red, and Heroin his white brownish
kind of color. So yeah,I doubted his excuse fold them at all.
He was charged with driving with therevoked license, narcottage travicking, and
it looks like he had a priorDUI conviction which will probably trigger some sort
of violational pro All right, herewe go. This dude in Arkansas.
(10:24):
Apparently a man in Arkansas was arrestledlast week for felony ear piercing. He
pierced his teenage son's ear. Now, the kid apparently showed up at school
last Thursday with his left ear pierce. He told friends that his dad got
drunk, put him in chokehold,and shoved the needle through his ear.
(10:46):
Apparently a teacher heard it and reportedat school officials. The cops later showed
up at the family's home, wherethe father, Jeremy, admitted to piercing
the son's ear, but refused tolet them ask any further questions or talk
to his son. The cops spokeprosecutors and they were told that they could
(11:07):
arrest Jeremy under laws in Arkansas onunlicensed body art on a person under sixteen.
Oh wow, and in an unlicensedfacility. So they got him for
a bogus bodyyard charge. It's likea kitchen tattoos. Same. Yeah.
(11:28):
So when Jeremy when the cops showedhip to arrest him, this is where
he messed up. He refused therest, so four officers had to forcibly
take Jeremy into custody. The scufflewas caught on camera by the son,
who is heard on camera saying thathe wanted his ear pierced from his dad.
(11:56):
And he said in the ticktok captioned, he said, I pierced my
ear a year ago and dad getsarrested because of it. Wow. It
seems like the kids got some bigvarying stories about you know, what he
was telling is his friends what reallyhappened. Um, But it's funny.
(12:24):
In the video you can hear Jeremy, the dad saying, you know,
mocking the fact that he was chargedwith, you know, a body art
without a license. That's that's thecharge, right, and he's like body
art without a license. I'm justlaughing it out. But apparently the kid
wanted his ear pierced and the dadpierced it for him. In the story,
(12:48):
it's like, hmmm, yeah,a little overreaction of sending four guys
into rust the guy over an earpiercing, and the teenager admits that he
wanted his ear piers and his daddid it, right, So yeah,
I think that's the probably all couldhave been cleared up had dad said go
(13:09):
ahead and talk to the police.When they came and said, hey,
we want to talk to your son, he said no, I mean maybe,
But at the same time, that'syour right, sure, that's I
mean, you're right, you haveit right to be like, no,
I pierced his ear. It's allyou need to know. You know,
he wanted his ear pierce. Ipierced his ear. Like, that's just
(13:30):
right too. But I mean itshows you how far the state or you
know, the probably don't rest himbody art without a license or piercing your
kid's ear. Come on, right, right, that's a little much like
you understand what the charge is therefor. It's not for that right right,
(13:50):
Like, come on seven thirty seven, Whose parents pierced their ears?
Or did you pierce your own ears? Did everybody you know go to Claire's
boutique or something like that. Oh, we had a group, we were
on a church group and a coupleof the guys went and got their ears
pierced to Claire's. And man,did not cause a rucus because you know,
(14:13):
there's no parents around. It wasonly our youth group leaders and the
guys that got their ears pierced.Oh oh that's story. Oh yeah,
I'm surprised that youth group person wasn'tfired.
