Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dana Lashes Absurd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida Man.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
That's right, it is time for Florida Man on the
Dana Show, a d Lash Dana Lash Radio and X
on Twitter to stay connected to everything going on for
her and the very fancy, very powerful show that this
is also radio. Craig Z, if you want to be
nice enough to follow me and get me over five
hundred people on X on Twitter, that would not be bad.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
I need to do more there. All right, let's move
on Florida Man. I have several of them.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
First, a Florida man was arrested after assaulting a woman
who had refused to let him smell her feet.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
This is a real thing. Now.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
What's amazing about this story, beyond the creepy horrible parts
of it, is the woman. She had a guy come
up to her and be like, Hey, can I smell
your feet?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
She said no.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
She acted like this guy was a total creep, but
she was. He proceeded to get an suv and hit her,
and she popped up. She has minor scrapes and bruises
and even did an interview talking about what happened and
how it happened. This woman is amazing. She's like, yeah, fine,
he hit me with the car and whatever. Screw that guy.
I'll track him down and I will kill him. I
(01:16):
feel like she's a Liam Neeson type from taking She's
about to find him and all of his family and
make them regret the day he tried to offer with
an SUV.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Again, incredible, here she is.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
We had met up because I was going to sell
him my sneakers. He just wanted to sniff my feet
and I didn't feel comfortable with that. I mean, you
could have my sneakers all you want. I mean, I
don't care. I'm not wearing them. You know, they're just
stinky old sneakers. But people like weird things. And I
met him down in the parking garage. He did a
three point turn and actually hit me with a car
(01:51):
ran me over. I've met a lot of people who
have foot fetishes. Nobody has ever done anything to this caliber.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Yeah, nobody's ever tried to hit her with a car before.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
It's weird that she's also like, yeah, no, my normal
thing that I'm doing is just trying to sell a
guy my shoes. Just give him my sneakers that he
seems to want. And I feel like she's made these
kind of deals in back alleys before. She's met a
lot of people who have foot fetishes, obviously, and nobody
has ever done anything of this caliber. Is a unique
quote to go down with this woman. But a Florida
(02:21):
woman who popped up after getting hit by a car
while trying to sell her shoes to a creepster actually
happened probably the way you might have assumed. This is
why you probably shouldn't set up a deal to sell
your shoes to anybody anyway.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Other things out there, other Florida men.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
A Florida man abandoned an eleven year old dog on
the side of the road of a remote road. Uniquely
horrible story here, pieces of crap that leave. This guy
got arrested for it too, which is awesome. People who
leave dogs and don't care about dogs and how much
dogs love us as people are people that I'm fine
with throwing the complete book at in every way. You
(02:59):
can punish them as much much as humanly possible. But
this is crazy, investigators said Sean Anthony Miller, twenty eight
drove to Indian town and left Coco on the side
of the road before driving away. The Martin County Sheriff's Office,
which assisted the West Palm Beach office, identified and arrested Miller,
charging him with animal abandonment, which is illegal.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
That's the problem. You can't just do that.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
And the dog looks sad in the photo, which makes
me even angrier because someone hopefully adopts and takes care
of this dog, eleven year old that was just left
on the side of the road. Finally, one last story,
a Florida man was accused of getting lost in a
marsh in heavy rain.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Not accused. He did that and then he had to
get rescued by people.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
The Florida man probably cost a bunch of people a
bunch of money, But Flagler County Sheriff's Office said a
man called nine one one on the night of August
twenty eighth to report that he had gotten lost and
the Princess Place Preserves, which you probably should never go to.
A place called the Princess Place Preserves, a fifteen hundred
acre nature preserve known for its many hiking trails and
(04:01):
extensive salt marshes. It was raining heavily. The man reported
he was ankle deep in water and he didn't know
where he was. Communication specialists decided to help coordinate, you know,
the survive the rescue of this dude, who is obviously
very thrilled that they're willing to go save stupid people
that do stupid things. But maybe next time, don't wander
(04:23):
to a marsh alone by yourself and think act I
can figure out how to get out.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Of this thing.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
That's probably a better move. Just stay at the beach.
Man Flaggler's got a great.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
Beat celtech, the PR fifty seven. It is a rotary
barrel pistol chambered in five seven lighter than the competition
if you're looking for something for concealed carry, and the
way that they accomplish this two ways. The innovative rotary
barrel that makes it light, but also a unique toploading
design that replaces the traditional magazine with a stripper clip
(04:52):
where a slimmer carry profile and a twenty plus one capacity.
It's a super fast and easy field strip also really affordable.
MSRP is only three ninety nine, so it's can be
an everyday carry. Because it's smaller, you're not losing any
stopping power and made in America. Celtech Made in America,
(05:14):
based in Florida. You can find out more about the
PR fifty seven chambered in five seven at keltech weapons

Speaker 1 (05:24):
You ex MSNBC host Joy Reid is going full conspiracy theorist.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Baby.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
She's getting crazy, crazier and crazier. I should say she
was already insane and some of the things she's claiming
to be true. Her latest discussion is about how Trump
was not shot, which is something a lot of the
left has said. Now here's what's amazing to me. The
left or people who vote democratically, pretend that they are
(05:53):
immune to conspiracy theory. They pretend as though conspiracy theory
is something the right solely dabbles in. It's the reason
that the right is so brainwashed by Trump or anyone else,
is all these things that they think are happening in
the world that definitely aren't, like election fraud, even when
you know, in Milwaukee you have another person caught red
(06:14):
handed via election fraud that never happens but apparently happens
a lot. But the left pretends they don't believe and
they don't, you know, trade in these same conspiratorial thoughts,
and then they put out stuff like this, and a
whole lot of people seem to believe it on that
side that Trump was not shot at all, which is insane.
Here we go, He's got these magical doctors who claimed
(06:37):
that he was shot in the ear, but his ear,
I guess, grew back.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
He had a du blow bandage on one minute, no
bandage the next.
Speaker 7 (06:42):
We can't get a medical record from this alleged assassination
he was supposedly shot, we've got one.
Speaker 6 (06:49):
Where's the state where the investigative records?
Speaker 1 (06:52):
One day he saw the maxi pad on his ear,
the next day the ear is totally fine.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
It's fine.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
And I remember being in mainstream media, where we both do.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Work, saying, God, isn't it odd that we've never asked
for his medical records?
Speaker 7 (07:04):
And I got in trouble for that.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
By the way, Katie Fang is the name of the
other voice that you're hearing in there. I love that
they both say that they they're no longer in mainstream
media because you got to be uniquely terrible for people
like MSNBC or ms NOW to fire you. But I
think what's crazy about this is like, this is full
on conspiracy craziness. We never never demanded the medical records
(07:26):
of what happened with Trump's ear.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
How dare we not do more of this? This is crazy,
This is insane.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
And who would be complicit in pretending as though Trump
was shot when he wasn't shot would be through the roof.
It'd be all the mainstream media outlets that hate the guy.
That would have to be like, Okay, yeah, we're gonna
report on this thing that we know is not true.
Why is it so difficult for the brains of some
people to accept something when they hate someone so much.
(07:53):
I don't get that it's a desire to reject the
truth at all costs. I think that ability to push
us into our political sides of the aisle, to you know,
polarize us even more, is the thing most counted on
by the people in politics who need you to be
insane and crazy in order to reject any narrative that
comes out of the side of the aisle that you
(08:14):
claim you're not on a joy read going deep in
the rabbit hole. As to President Trump was not almost
killed by an assassin and that he luckily turned his
head at the last minute and had his ear hurt
and damage.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Like all, that's insane to me.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
How significant of an impact the bullet made in his
body and his body's ability to you know, heal from
that is irrelevant to me.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I don't care if it barely grazed his ear, not
that that's what people say, although mostly that is what
people say, and he could fully recover from that relatively quickly.
I care about the fact that a gunman was able
to take a shot that could have killed him if
he hadn't turned his head. That part matters to me.
The part that's insane is left seems upset that it
(08:59):
wasn't a more harmful hit, that he wasn't more harmed
or you know, potentially even you know, killed by that shot,
which is I think the part that they're not saying
out loud but in the back of their brain that
if Trump was almost assassinated, their problem is the word almost,
that they would prefer an actual assassination to you know,
(09:20):
harmed and then influentially sort of miraculously standing up and
putting his hand in the air and saying fight, fight,
fight in a way that's truly iconic and American. I
remember even Mark Zuckerberg came out saying how he thought
that was uniquely inspiring to watch someone almost get killed
and immediately react the way that Trump did. There's something
fascinating about that again, and so the left just can't
(09:42):
handle it. I can give credit when credit is due
to the other side of the aisle. I promise you
I can, and I've done it before. Dana is actually
great at it too. You can give credit two moments
or attack things that you disagree with on your own
side of the political aisle because it gets you out
of the stupid, warped cone of I don't know, polar politics,
(10:06):
polarizing politics that somebody desire you to be it. People
should do the mental exercise of digesting a lot of
the news media on the other side of the political aisle,
listening to what they're saying and how they're saying it,
mostly because that exercise helps you to understand the argument
and also helps you to understand at times if there's
something that is uniquely true and not being highlighted as
(10:27):
much by the side of the aisle that you might
be on. A whole lot of Democrats should be listening
to this show every single day, and actually I bet
they are because of the size of the audience of
this show. But they should be because occasionally we're going
to tell you things. Dana is going to tell you
things that your side of the aisle doesn't even want
to talk about. They refuse to talk about, and they're
terrified to talk about because they know it might actually
(10:48):
influence you to not see Republicans and Trump specifically is
a horrible enemy. Even what he said and I played
it yesterday about why he wants the end of the
Ukraine Russia conflict, that he just wants to save lives
and stop people from dying. It's a uniquely presidential way
to respond to a question about that. He's not saying
that Putin is, you know, the devil the way that
(11:12):
Biden did, not that Putin's a good guy, of course not,
but he is just saying, more diplomatically, I'd like to
see the end, and I'm trying to work with both sides,
communicate with both sides, not alienate either side in this
relationship in order to get us to a place of peace.
That's not played in media anywhere because it goes it
(11:32):
flies in the face of the person they want you
to think Trump is all the time. All right, Well
take a break. A lot coming up Craig Collins filling
in on the Data Show.

Speaker 7 (12:29):
It's time for Dana's Quick five.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
That's right, It's time for Quick five on the Dana Show.
A d Lash Dana Lash Radio on x on Twitter
at Radio craigz. If you want to follow my tweets
about the Yankees, but I am in for her for
this week.
Speaker 7 (12:42):
All right.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
A few crazy things out there. First, a gold price
hit a record high. Investors are looking for a sweet,
delicious safe haven from all the craziness that we might see,
especially with the discussions about tariffs, their legality or funding them.
All kinds of things are out there as far as
discussion goes. So people are invested in gold baby, which
is something people do all the time, and it's usually
(13:05):
a good idea, especially a good idea.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
During volacile times which we might be blazing toward.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
China is set to unveil the world's most powerful laser
defense system. This would be in front of Vladimir Putin
in Russia. The United States and Trump have stood very strongly,
even when the mainstream media people tell you he doesn't
do this by accusing people like North Korea, China, Russia, whoever,
of conspiring against the United States something he put up
(13:32):
on social media. This feels like a aspect of that
whole discussion. That whole thing is these countries seem very
proud of themselves. India times seems to to be closer
in these relationships than you want them to be. But
it is interesting that China will unveil a very unique
laser defense system in front of Vladimir Putin.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
It seems to be done on.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Purpose of course aping maybe causing irreverse harm to children's health.
Doctor's saying it feels identical to the evolution of cigarettes.
Like truly, vaping feels somehow crazily the same aspects of
the dangers of vaping were obvious going in because of
everything that happened with cigarettes, whether you smoke or not,
(14:18):
not judging, just saying so, I think it's interesting that
so many people, young people thought, hey, vaping way safer,
and it seems to be more and more demonstrated how
utterly inaccurate that statement is. But there are more pieces
of information coming out, especially if you're younger. This is
actually also true of pot smoking. If you're younger and
(14:38):
you start smoking pot, the damage to your brain is
tremendously more.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Significant than if you get older. That's one of the
big reasons that you should not ever be even remotely
cool with your kids smoking. But I digress.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
That is a thing that's out there that does seem
to be backed up by a whole lot of data.
Three people were arrested after one thousand dollars worth of
stolen meat was found in a car. That sounds less
than sanitary is a comment that one of the people
on this team sent to me along with this story,
which is hilarious by radiocaine. But three people were arrested.
One thousand dollars worth of meat was found, all prepackaged,
(15:15):
all individually wrapped.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
I'm not sure if it was cold or not, but
this is a unique, crazy story.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
The funniest part to me is that I don't think
this is out of Florida, which was disappointing. This feels
like the kind of story that would definitely be a
Florida story.
Speaker 7 (15:30):
But it's not.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
One other aspect of it too, I should mention, And
this is something I thought immediately when I saw it.
I would love to have been driving this car and
not having the stolen stuff. But it looks like it's
a whole lot of delicious steak. Again, not sure if
it's still good, not sure if any of this is
still currently delicious, But just driving around in a thousand
dollars meat car is something that I find uniquely fun
(15:53):
as an idea, just having a whole bunch of steak
and pulling up at some sort of grill, some sort
of a cookout, being able to provide delicious food. I
don't know that that's what they were doing. I feel
like something else horrible was happening. I think this actually
happened in the UK, by the way, which for some
reason amuses me even more. And then finally, one last
story for our quick five. The Bay Area city has
(16:16):
a major geese poop problem, a Bay Area city, i
should say, and they're going to spend four hundred thousand
dollars on doing this.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Canadian geese are wreaking havoc all throughout.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
San Francisco, and so it's going to cost almost half
a million bucks to try to get that under control.
This feels like part of the reason that California has
so many terrible problems, mostly because I think that I
and a few of my friends could deal with this
geese poop problem for way less than four hundred grand.
We can get it done for you guys. If California
(16:48):
wants to hire us, I know a few people. I'll
bring them with me from Texas. It'll be over in
a weekend. We'll have no problem with it. And we'll
take like two hundred grand. That sounds about right for us.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
But I do love this.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
I love the fact that this is.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
A thing that they're talking about spending this kind of
money on, because it also demonstrates to you how profoundly
wasted money gets when government gets its myths on it.
You all know that, I know that we see it
every single day, but spending half a million to deal
with a gooseboop has got to be at the top
end of any sort of list.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
This is the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Of course, I will continue to talk about the story
that is intentionally big today, meaning it deserves to be big,
but also media is overly focused on it. That would
be the latest in the Epstein story, the accusers coming forward,
a President Trump's reaction to it. I promise I'll get
to that. However, I'm uniquely amused by something else that's
out there. A representative Hank Johnson tried to go after
(17:46):
Nigel Farage in a pretty hilarious way and definitely didn't
have it work out for him. As the politician from
the UK was speaking in front of members of our
political system.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
This is uniquely hilarious to me. Some of this back
and forth.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I love even the way that it starts with the
whole why were you in Wisconsin? I think you might
kind of know why I was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, back
and forth. So here we go, and actually, you know what,
I'll just call this all a palate cleanser for more
of the crazy news stuff that's out there, because this
is just more fun ought to listen to than that stuff.
Speaker 5 (18:21):
Welcome to the United States of America. This isn't your
first time here? Correct?
Speaker 7 (18:28):
Correct?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
You were here in twenty twenty four in Milwaukee, weren't you.
Speaker 7 (18:33):
I've been coming here since nineteen eighty two on a
very regular basis. I worked for American Company.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
Purpose were you coming to Milwaukee four? Why did you
come to Milwaukee?
Speaker 7 (18:42):
I mean in Milwaukee many times. I think that in
twenty twenty four invention, the Convention the Republic, I think
I think you're right.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
The Trump Convention, I think you're right, very good. Where
Trump was coronated what he want didn't say? I mean, yes,
he had already we already knew who had. It's it's
COPD and it was his coronation.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
And you attend it is already so stupid that the
politician is trying to be like, we caught you. You
were here and you are from the UK, and we
think this is a conspiracy or some sort of important
thing somehow, And he's like, I come here all the time.
I am not hiding any of this. This is weird
that you're acting like this is some big giant story.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
And you also attended Trump rallies.
Speaker 7 (19:28):
Correct, I've attended Loss of Trump, rat.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Think America Great Again rallies.
Speaker 7 (19:32):
Yes, and you feel optimistic, happy, wonderful, joyous, publicly endorsed sory,
enjoyed them.
Speaker 5 (19:39):
You endorsed him for president, and you attended his election
night watch party.
Speaker 7 (19:45):
I did.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
And you consider Trump to be your mentor correct, No,
he's not your mentor. No, but he sorry, he is
somebody who you want the support of, and you have
the support.
Speaker 7 (20:00):
Yes, I do. I think he's a very very brave man.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
Because you are getting ready to run for Prime Minister
of Great Britain.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Correct.
Speaker 7 (20:08):
Oh, I've been trying for years.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Yeah, and okay, that part uniquely hilarious and true. He
has run before. This is not a brand new thing
that he's doing for the first time.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Every part of this so far is exactly the way
you should handle someone who is trying to create controversy
where there is none.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
It's just awesome.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Again, I'll get to the stuff that you're waiting for
us to talk about this stuff like Epstein, but this
is just too amusing.
Speaker 5 (20:34):
And as it stands right now, you you head up
a party. How many seats in the parliament are there?
Speaker 7 (20:45):
Six hundred and fifty one? Speak of that?
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Six hundred and fifty and how many are a part?
How many seats does your party?
Speaker 7 (20:54):
Oh? How many seats do the Opinion Post say we're
going to get next time? Is that no? I mean, oh, why.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Snumbers don't lie? You only have four seats?
Speaker 7 (21:01):
Right, that's I'm afraid.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
So yes, And so you are indeed the leader of
a fringe party.
Speaker 7 (21:08):
Oh I'm a fringe al right, don't worry about that. Yes,
I've done.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
And it's a fringe party leader.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
I gotta be honest.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
His accent might also be what's making this so entertaining
for us, But yeah, he's totally fine with everything you're
describing him.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
At seeking to run for.
Speaker 5 (21:26):
Prime Minister of Great Britain, you need a lot of
money in order to blow up like the manga movement
has blown up.
Speaker 7 (21:33):
What you need is the message of truth or the
message of hope. You need money also, right, money is helpful,
but it's not the primary thing.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
I love that last part too. You need a message
of truth, a message of hope.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
You need money.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
It's helpful whether or not we get that money from
certain individuals that you seem to hate and want this
to be the discussion point. The truth is that we
hope that we get more seats and do better. The
leader of the Reform UK Party, By the way, the
UK locking people up for free speech reasons, So it
seems like uniquely bad time to be someone who's in
the UK or defending the politics as usual version of
(22:09):
events that occurs there. It seems like what you really
really want is actually a lot of people that are
going to behave quite a bit differently than these horrible
people are behaving. So you want someone who's trying to
reform the entirety of the party. That would be a
good thing. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of

Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida Man.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
That's right, it is time for Florida Man on the
Dana Show, a d Lash Dana Lash Radio and X
on Twitter to stay connected to everything going on for
her and the very fancy, very powerful show that this
is also radio. Craig Z, if you want to be
nice enough to follow me and get me over five
hundred people on X on Twitter, that would not be bad.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
I need to do more there. All right, let's move
on Florida Man. I have several of them.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
First, a Florida man was arrested after assaulting a woman
who had refused to let him smell her feet.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
This is a real thing. Now.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
What's amazing about this story, beyond the creepy horrible parts
of it, is the woman. She had a guy come
up to her and be like, Hey, can I smell
your feet?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
She said no.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
She acted like this guy was a total creep, but
she was. He proceeded to get an suv and hit her,
and she popped up. She has minor scrapes and bruises
and even did an interview talking about what happened and
how it happened. This woman is amazing. She's like, yeah, fine,
he hit me with the car and whatever. Screw that guy.
I'll track him down and I will kill him. I
(01:16):
feel like she's a Liam Neeson type from taking She's
about to find him and all of his family and
make them regret the day he tried to offer with
an SUV.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Again, incredible, here she is.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
We had met up because I was going to sell
him my sneakers. He just wanted to sniff my feet
and I didn't feel comfortable with that. I mean, you
could have my sneakers all you want. I mean, I
don't care. I'm not wearing them. You know, they're just
stinky old sneakers. But people like weird things. And I
met him down in the parking garage. He did a
three point turn and actually hit me with a car
(01:51):
ran me over. I've met a lot of people who
have foot fetishes. Nobody has ever done anything to this caliber.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Yeah, nobody's ever tried to hit her with a car before.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
It's weird that she's also like, yeah, no, my normal
thing that I'm doing is just trying to sell a
guy my shoes. Just give him my sneakers that he
seems to want. And I feel like she's made these
kind of deals in back alleys before. She's met a
lot of people who have foot fetishes, obviously, and nobody
has ever done anything of this caliber. Is a unique
quote to go down with this woman. But a Florida
(02:21):
woman who popped up after getting hit by a car
while trying to sell her shoes to a creepster actually
happened probably the way you might have assumed. This is
why you probably shouldn't set up a deal to sell
your shoes to anybody anyway.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Other things out there, other Florida men.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
A Florida man abandoned an eleven year old dog on
the side of the road of a remote road. Uniquely
horrible story here, pieces of crap that leave. This guy
got arrested for it too, which is awesome. People who
leave dogs and don't care about dogs and how much
dogs love us as people are people that I'm fine
with throwing the complete book at in every way. You
(02:59):
can punish them as much much as humanly possible. But
this is crazy, investigators said Sean Anthony Miller, twenty eight
drove to Indian town and left Coco on the side
of the road before driving away. The Martin County Sheriff's Office,
which assisted the West Palm Beach office, identified and arrested Miller,
charging him with animal abandonment, which is illegal.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
That's the problem. You can't just do that.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
And the dog looks sad in the photo, which makes
me even angrier because someone hopefully adopts and takes care
of this dog, eleven year old that was just left
on the side of the road. Finally, one last story,
a Florida man was accused of getting lost in a
marsh in heavy rain.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Not accused. He did that and then he had to
get rescued by people.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
The Florida man probably cost a bunch of people a
bunch of money, But Flagler County Sheriff's Office said a
man called nine one one on the night of August
twenty eighth to report that he had gotten lost and
the Princess Place Preserves, which you probably should never go to.
A place called the Princess Place Preserves, a fifteen hundred
acre nature preserve known for its many hiking trails and
(04:01):
extensive salt marshes. It was raining heavily. The man reported
he was ankle deep in water and he didn't know
where he was. Communication specialists decided to help coordinate, you know,
the survive the rescue of this dude, who is obviously
very thrilled that they're willing to go save stupid people
that do stupid things. But maybe next time, don't wander
(04:23):
to a marsh alone by yourself and think act I
can figure out how to get out.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Of this thing.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
That's probably a better move. Just stay at the beach.
Man Flaggler's got a great.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
Beat celtech, the PR fifty seven. It is a rotary
barrel pistol chambered in five seven lighter than the competition
if you're looking for something for concealed carry, and the
way that they accomplish this two ways. The innovative rotary
barrel that makes it light, but also a unique toploading
design that replaces the traditional magazine with a stripper clip
(04:52):
where a slimmer carry profile and a twenty plus one capacity.
It's a super fast and easy field strip also really affordable.
MSRP is only three ninety nine, so it's can be
an everyday carry. Because it's smaller, you're not losing any

Speaker 1 (05:24):
You ex MSNBC host Joy Reid is going full conspiracy theorist.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Baby.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
She's getting crazy, crazier and crazier. I should say she
was already insane and some of the things she's claiming
to be true. Her latest discussion is about how Trump
was not shot, which is something a lot of the
left has said. Now here's what's amazing to me. The
left or people who vote democratically, pretend that they are
(05:53):
immune to conspiracy theory. They pretend as though conspiracy theory
is something the right solely dabbles in. It's the reason
that the right is so brainwashed by Trump or anyone else,
is all these things that they think are happening in
the world that definitely aren't, like election fraud, even when
you know, in Milwaukee you have another person caught red
(06:14):
handed via election fraud that never happens but apparently happens
a lot. But the left pretends they don't believe and
they don't, you know, trade in these same conspiratorial thoughts,
and then they put out stuff like this, and a
whole lot of people seem to believe it on that
side that Trump was not shot at all, which is insane.
Here we go, He's got these magical doctors who claimed
(06:37):
that he was shot in the ear, but his ear,
I guess, grew back.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
He had a du blow bandage on one minute, no
bandage the next.
Speaker 7 (06:42):
We can't get a medical record from this alleged assassination
he was supposedly shot, we've got one.
Speaker 6 (06:49):
Where's the state where the investigative records?
Speaker 1 (06:52):
One day he saw the maxi pad on his ear,
the next day the ear is totally fine.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
It's fine.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
And I remember being in mainstream media, where we both do.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Work, saying, God, isn't it odd that we've never asked
for his medical records?
Speaker 7 (07:04):
And I got in trouble for that.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
By the way, Katie Fang is the name of the
other voice that you're hearing in there. I love that
they both say that they they're no longer in mainstream
media because you got to be uniquely terrible for people
like MSNBC or ms NOW to fire you. But I
think what's crazy about this is like, this is full
on conspiracy craziness. We never never demanded the medical records
(07:26):
of what happened with Trump's ear.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
How dare we not do more of this? This is crazy,
This is insane.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
And who would be complicit in pretending as though Trump
was shot when he wasn't shot would be through the roof.
It'd be all the mainstream media outlets that hate the guy.
That would have to be like, Okay, yeah, we're gonna
report on this thing that we know is not true.
Why is it so difficult for the brains of some
people to accept something when they hate someone so much.
(07:53):
I don't get that it's a desire to reject the
truth at all costs. I think that ability to push
us into our political sides of the aisle, to you know,
polarize us even more, is the thing most counted on
by the people in politics who need you to be
insane and crazy in order to reject any narrative that
comes out of the side of the aisle that you
(08:14):
claim you're not on a joy read going deep in
the rabbit hole. As to President Trump was not almost
killed by an assassin and that he luckily turned his
head at the last minute and had his ear hurt
and damage.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Like all, that's insane to me.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
How significant of an impact the bullet made in his
body and his body's ability to you know, heal from
that is irrelevant to me.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I don't care if it barely grazed his ear, not
that that's what people say, although mostly that is what
people say, and he could fully recover from that relatively quickly.
I care about the fact that a gunman was able
to take a shot that could have killed him if
he hadn't turned his head. That part matters to me.
The part that's insane is left seems upset that it
(08:59):
wasn't a more harmful hit, that he wasn't more harmed
or you know, potentially even you know, killed by that shot,
which is I think the part that they're not saying
out loud but in the back of their brain that
if Trump was almost assassinated, their problem is the word almost,
that they would prefer an actual assassination to you know,
(09:20):
harmed and then influentially sort of miraculously standing up and
putting his hand in the air and saying fight, fight,
fight in a way that's truly iconic and American. I
remember even Mark Zuckerberg came out saying how he thought
that was uniquely inspiring to watch someone almost get killed
and immediately react the way that Trump did. There's something
fascinating about that again, and so the left just can't
(09:42):
handle it. I can give credit when credit is due
to the other side of the aisle. I promise you
I can, and I've done it before. Dana is actually
great at it too. You can give credit two moments
or attack things that you disagree with on your own
side of the political aisle because it gets you out
of the stupid, warped cone of I don't know, polar politics,
(10:06):
polarizing politics that somebody desire you to be it. People
should do the mental exercise of digesting a lot of
the news media on the other side of the political aisle,
listening to what they're saying and how they're saying it,
mostly because that exercise helps you to understand the argument
and also helps you to understand at times if there's
something that is uniquely true and not being highlighted as
(10:27):
much by the side of the aisle that you might
be on. A whole lot of Democrats should be listening
to this show every single day, and actually I bet
they are because of the size of the audience of
this show. But they should be because occasionally we're going
to tell you things. Dana is going to tell you
things that your side of the aisle doesn't even want
to talk about. They refuse to talk about, and they're
terrified to talk about because they know it might actually
(10:48):
influence you to not see Republicans and Trump specifically is
a horrible enemy. Even what he said and I played
it yesterday about why he wants the end of the
Ukraine Russia conflict, that he just wants to save lives
and stop people from dying. It's a uniquely presidential way
to respond to a question about that. He's not saying
that Putin is, you know, the devil the way that
(11:12):
Biden did, not that Putin's a good guy, of course not,
but he is just saying, more diplomatically, I'd like to
see the end, and I'm trying to work with both sides,
communicate with both sides, not alienate either side in this
relationship in order to get us to a place of peace.
That's not played in media anywhere because it goes it
(11:32):
flies in the face of the person they want you
to think Trump is all the time. All right, Well
take a break. A lot coming up Craig Collins filling
in on the Data Show.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
And now all of the news you would probably miss.
Speaker 7 (12:29):
It's time for Dana's Quick five.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
That's right, It's time for Quick five on the Dana Show.
A d Lash Dana Lash Radio on x on Twitter
at Radio craigz. If you want to follow my tweets
about the Yankees, but I am in for her for
this week.
Speaker 7 (12:42):
All right.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
A few crazy things out there. First, a gold price
hit a record high. Investors are looking for a sweet,
delicious safe haven from all the craziness that we might see,
especially with the discussions about tariffs, their legality or funding them.
All kinds of things are out there as far as
discussion goes. So people are invested in gold baby, which
is something people do all the time, and it's usually
(13:05):
a good idea, especially a good idea.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
During volacile times which we might be blazing toward.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
China is set to unveil the world's most powerful laser
defense system. This would be in front of Vladimir Putin
in Russia. The United States and Trump have stood very strongly,
even when the mainstream media people tell you he doesn't
do this by accusing people like North Korea, China, Russia, whoever,
of conspiring against the United States something he put up
(13:32):
on social media. This feels like a aspect of that
whole discussion. That whole thing is these countries seem very
proud of themselves. India times seems to to be closer
in these relationships than you want them to be. But
it is interesting that China will unveil a very unique
laser defense system in front of Vladimir Putin.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
It seems to be done on.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Purpose of course aping maybe causing irreverse harm to children's health.
Doctor's saying it feels identical to the evolution of cigarettes.
Like truly, vaping feels somehow crazily the same aspects of
the dangers of vaping were obvious going in because of
everything that happened with cigarettes, whether you smoke or not,
(14:18):
not judging, just saying so, I think it's interesting that
so many people, young people thought, hey, vaping way safer,
and it seems to be more and more demonstrated how
utterly inaccurate that statement is. But there are more pieces
of information coming out, especially if you're younger. This is
actually also true of pot smoking. If you're younger and
(14:38):
you start smoking pot, the damage to your brain is
tremendously more.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Significant than if you get older. That's one of the
big reasons that you should not ever be even remotely
cool with your kids smoking. But I digress.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
That is a thing that's out there that does seem
to be backed up by a whole lot of data.
Three people were arrested after one thousand dollars worth of
stolen meat was found in a car. That sounds less
than sanitary is a comment that one of the people
on this team sent to me along with this story,
which is hilarious by radiocaine. But three people were arrested.
One thousand dollars worth of meat was found, all prepackaged,
(15:15):
all individually wrapped.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
I'm not sure if it was cold or not, but
this is a unique, crazy story.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
The funniest part to me is that I don't think
this is out of Florida, which was disappointing. This feels
like the kind of story that would definitely be a
Florida story.
Speaker 7 (15:30):
But it's not.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
One other aspect of it too, I should mention, And
this is something I thought immediately when I saw it.
I would love to have been driving this car and
not having the stolen stuff. But it looks like it's
a whole lot of delicious steak. Again, not sure if
it's still good, not sure if any of this is
still currently delicious, But just driving around in a thousand
dollars meat car is something that I find uniquely fun
(15:53):
as an idea, just having a whole bunch of steak
and pulling up at some sort of grill, some sort
of a cookout, being able to provide delicious food. I
don't know that that's what they were doing. I feel
like something else horrible was happening. I think this actually
happened in the UK, by the way, which for some
reason amuses me even more. And then finally, one last
story for our quick five. The Bay Area city has
(16:16):
a major geese poop problem, a Bay Area city, i
should say, and they're going to spend four hundred thousand
dollars on doing this.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Canadian geese are wreaking havoc all throughout.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
San Francisco, and so it's going to cost almost half
a million bucks to try to get that under control.
This feels like part of the reason that California has
so many terrible problems, mostly because I think that I
and a few of my friends could deal with this
geese poop problem for way less than four hundred grand.
We can get it done for you guys. If California
(16:48):
wants to hire us, I know a few people. I'll
bring them with me from Texas. It'll be over in
a weekend. We'll have no problem with it. And we'll
take like two hundred grand. That sounds about right for us.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
But I do love this.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
I love the fact that this is.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
A thing that they're talking about spending this kind of
money on, because it also demonstrates to you how profoundly
wasted money gets when government gets its myths on it.
You all know that, I know that we see it
every single day, but spending half a million to deal
with a gooseboop has got to be at the top
end of any sort of list.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
This is the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Of course, I will continue to talk about the story
that is intentionally big today, meaning it deserves to be big,
but also media is overly focused on it. That would
be the latest in the Epstein story, the accusers coming forward,
a President Trump's reaction to it. I promise I'll get
to that. However, I'm uniquely amused by something else that's
out there. A representative Hank Johnson tried to go after
(17:46):
Nigel Farage in a pretty hilarious way and definitely didn't
have it work out for him. As the politician from
the UK was speaking in front of members of our
political system.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
This is uniquely hilarious to me. Some of this back
and forth.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I love even the way that it starts with the
whole why were you in Wisconsin? I think you might
kind of know why I was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, back
and forth. So here we go, and actually, you know what,
I'll just call this all a palate cleanser for more
of the crazy news stuff that's out there, because this
is just more fun ought to listen to than that stuff.
Speaker 5 (18:21):
Welcome to the United States of America. This isn't your
first time here? Correct?
Speaker 7 (18:28):
Correct?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
You were here in twenty twenty four in Milwaukee, weren't you.
Speaker 7 (18:33):
I've been coming here since nineteen eighty two on a
very regular basis. I worked for American Company.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
Purpose were you coming to Milwaukee four? Why did you
come to Milwaukee?
Speaker 7 (18:42):
I mean in Milwaukee many times. I think that in
twenty twenty four invention, the Convention the Republic, I think
I think you're right.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
The Trump Convention, I think you're right, very good. Where
Trump was coronated what he want didn't say? I mean, yes,
he had already we already knew who had. It's it's
COPD and it was his coronation.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
And you attend it is already so stupid that the
politician is trying to be like, we caught you. You
were here and you are from the UK, and we
think this is a conspiracy or some sort of important
thing somehow, And he's like, I come here all the time.
I am not hiding any of this. This is weird
that you're acting like this is some big giant story.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
And you also attended Trump rallies.
Speaker 7 (19:28):
Correct, I've attended Loss of Trump, rat.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Think America Great Again rallies.
Speaker 7 (19:32):
Yes, and you feel optimistic, happy, wonderful, joyous, publicly endorsed sory,
enjoyed them.
Speaker 5 (19:39):
You endorsed him for president, and you attended his election
night watch party.
Speaker 7 (19:45):
I did.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
And you consider Trump to be your mentor correct, No,
he's not your mentor. No, but he sorry, he is
somebody who you want the support of, and you have
the support.
Speaker 7 (20:00):
Yes, I do. I think he's a very very brave man.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
Because you are getting ready to run for Prime Minister
of Great Britain.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Correct.
Speaker 7 (20:08):
Oh, I've been trying for years.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Yeah, and okay, that part uniquely hilarious and true. He
has run before. This is not a brand new thing
that he's doing for the first time.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Every part of this so far is exactly the way
you should handle someone who is trying to create controversy
where there is none.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
It's just awesome.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Again, I'll get to the stuff that you're waiting for
us to talk about this stuff like Epstein, but this
is just too amusing.
Speaker 5 (20:34):
And as it stands right now, you you head up
a party. How many seats in the parliament are there?
Speaker 7 (20:45):
Six hundred and fifty one? Speak of that?
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Six hundred and fifty and how many are a part?
How many seats does your party?
Speaker 7 (20:54):
Oh? How many seats do the Opinion Post say we're
going to get next time? Is that no? I mean, oh, why.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Snumbers don't lie? You only have four seats?
Speaker 7 (21:01):
Right, that's I'm afraid.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
So yes, And so you are indeed the leader of
a fringe party.
Speaker 7 (21:08):
Oh I'm a fringe al right, don't worry about that. Yes,
I've done.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
And it's a fringe party leader.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
I gotta be honest.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
His accent might also be what's making this so entertaining
for us, But yeah, he's totally fine with everything you're
describing him.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
At seeking to run for.
Speaker 5 (21:26):
Prime Minister of Great Britain, you need a lot of
money in order to blow up like the manga movement
has blown up.
Speaker 7 (21:33):
What you need is the message of truth or the
message of hope. You need money also, right, money is helpful,
but it's not the primary thing.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
I love that last part too. You need a message
of truth, a message of hope.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
You need money.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
It's helpful whether or not we get that money from
certain individuals that you seem to hate and want this
to be the discussion point. The truth is that we
hope that we get more seats and do better. The
leader of the Reform UK Party, By the way, the
UK locking people up for free speech reasons, So it
seems like uniquely bad time to be someone who's in
the UK or defending the politics as usual version of
(22:09):
events that occurs there. It seems like what you really
really want is actually a lot of people that are
going to behave quite a bit differently than these horrible
people are behaving. So you want someone who's trying to
reform the entirety of the party. That would be a
good thing. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of

I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
