Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dana Lashes of surd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech. It's
his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time for
Florida Man. That's right, It's time for Florida Man. This
is the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins, filling
in d Lash Dana Lash Radio on X on Twitter
(00:21):
to stay connected to her. I got three of them
for you today. First, some people seem surprised by this,
but if you know anything about Florida, maybe you're not
all that surprise. There were some people driving around a
seven thousand dollars mobile dispensary. Vehicle surveillance foiled a Florida
man who was driving his weed products, his edibles, everything
(00:43):
in a van. This happened in Fort Myers, actually the
weed van. I captured the man stealing seven thousand dollars
in merchandise from another place and trying to make off
with it. All of this is crazy, according to Lee
County Sheriff's Office. The suspect later identified as thirty one
year old Zachary Jolly. I don't know why. I'm amused
that his last name is Jolly. Broke a window gained
(01:04):
access to a mobile dispensary dubbed Queen of Weed and
then stole a whole bunch of stuff in it. A
surveillange footage obtained by deputies show Folly filling a trash
can with edibles, mushrooms and vapes and then making off
with the trash can. Just an interesting set of decisions
being made by this moron. But Florida the big takeaways.
They have weed trucks and so another guy out there
(01:27):
in Florida was attacked by a bear at his house.
It's a real story. A black bear walked up to
a dude's house in Florida. This was at four thirty am.
I don't know why the guy was awake. He got
scratches on his arm and stuff, but mostly he won
by just yelling at the bear to go away. I
would play the audio, but there's bad words in there too.
The dude said he was in a haze when he
(01:48):
opened the door that early in the morning with you know,
doorbell video camera, saying that certain things were happening, and
then he sees a bear. The bear hits him in
the arm and stuff, and he's lucky to be a
lot because you just started to yell at the bear,
like go away, get away from me bear, and that
seemed to be effective. So if you want that as
a proof of concept to show to the missus or
(02:10):
show to anyone else. Whenever you say that you could
defeat a bear in some sort of you know fight,
there you go. At least one time it worked out
the way it's supposed to. I'm not sure if it'll
happen if you try it too. I'm not recommending you
do that, by the way. And finally, a Florida woman
was arrested for allegedly super gluing veneers of victim's teeth
directly to their faces without any sort of license. She
(02:32):
claimed to be a dentist. You had to go over
her house to get the procedure done. There was nobody
else there, just her. She was really cheap, though, so
a bunch of people in Florida are like, well, I
want veneers and I don't want to pay real money
for it, so this seems fine. Surprise surprise that the
lady using super glue to glue things onto your teeth
was not, in fact a licensed dentist in a place
(02:53):
like Florida. I would never go to any home in
Florida for any kind of mental procedure, of any medical
procedure of any kind, mostly because I'd be afraid I'd
wake up without kids. That's just me assuming that. But again,
you decide what you need to do. I'm going that road.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
This is the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in, thrilled to be with you. A bunch of
stuff out there to talk about. Let's play this audio.
This is audio from ms now I like saying that, actually,
it's so stupid MSNBC. They're freaking out. They're upset about
a lot of the things that are going on and
being talked about. So Jensaki terrible in her role when
(04:19):
she was the White House Press Secretary. Not because she
was bad at evading questions. She's actually pretty good at that.
Just terrible and a lot of the lies she was
willing to tell then and a lot of the lies
she's willing to tell now. But she did an interview
with may Or Frey who said that praying is bad.
I know that's not what he actually said, It just
felt that way based on the fact that he said
(04:39):
thoughts and prayers are something you can't send to families
that obviously care about faith after a horrible thing happens
out of families yesterday in Minneapolis, Minnesota, children were praying
in a church at school and a shooter came in,
or a shooter shot through the windows and killed two
kids and harmed a bunch of others. Just horrible, and
I hate but I want to play it for a
(05:01):
specific reason that might not be just being a pundit
again and reacting to what you're probably hearing all over
the place is people's opinions of the stupidity of the
secondary and third level conversations that come from a very
obvious and simple conversation. Someone with a mental health issue
killed children. We should think that's bad and we should
be fighting mental health. But here Snaki and the mayor.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Yeah, I have been thinking about them as my own
all day, as I know many people watching have been
thinking about them as their own.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
Well.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
It's, by the way, the thing I most hate about
when the left says that too. They say this about
teachers all the time, like teachers see your children as yours.
I see kids as my kids. Even if there might
be truth in the fact that when something horrific happens,
if you're a parent and it happens to kids, you
absolutely picture I wou it would be like if you
(05:53):
harm came to your family and that's how scared mad,
all those things that you might get. But even as
you say that, like this is again using this for
some sort of manipulative reason to try to then transition
to the other topics you want to talk about. It's
not necessary and honestly thinking about it within the terms
of my own life or my own family or anyone
else is even more you'd want to turn to God
(06:15):
and pray, then try to vilify God, not what they do.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Well fresh here, it's just happened this morning, and there's
already been sort of some effort, which I think is
so sick and disgusting to weaponize some of the details,
even if we don't know a lot at this point
in time, and obviously the law enforcement in your city
have been keeping people abreast, including details about the individual
(06:38):
possibly being trands, about the individual possibly having negative things
to say about Trump, about some things that.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Have been and all those things are true, they're facts
on the weapons.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
A lot of this is just very early reporting. What
do you do as a leader of your city to
prevent details from being weaponized and using this to blame
something other and the guns.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
I want to stop it right there. That was my
favorite part of what she said, and it goes way
beyond the tragedy of yesterday. She just said out loud
in a way that she thinks is okay. How do
you prevent the truth from shaping the narrative? That's what
she said. You don't want the truth itself sometimes in
these places to bogart the mission of whatever it is
(07:23):
you're trying to sell the American people and claim is
true even though they can easily tell it's not. That's
the question to a leader of a city after a
horrible tragedy happens that day, and the answer is going
to be terrible, and I will play it in a second.
But I just can't get over the ridiculousness of that.
And also the fact that media media exactly like X
(07:46):
now is allowing us to know the full story where
they would hide it. And there's even one other thing.
And I feel like I've talked about it filling in
on the show before, but I've been in rooms where
news directors of small market radio stations or you know,
individuals who are parts of bigger radio groups say something
(08:07):
out loud where they think, well, we can't tell them
the truth because if we do, it's somehow gonna harm
someone else here or there or some other way. And
how freaking insane is that? Like it's sort of surreal
to be in the room and sit there and not
want to explode. And I couldn't because that would have
only made things worse for me. In any of the
places I was in, I definitely didn't listen to the
(08:27):
thing they said. I told the truth on whatever shows
I was a part of, because darn it, that's important.
But nonetheless, even if you're told you can't tell the truth,
you might get fired for telling the truth. It's insane
because these people, some of them, actually think they're doing
good work. They actually think like, oh, we're helping in
this society, we're making things better. We promise that what
(08:47):
we're doing is somehow for the greater good, even if
we're seeing the bad continue to play out. It's actually
the same argument, and this is something I meant to
get into I didn't. Maybe we'll talk about it more later,
that the uses to try to take away guns. They
try to say that the problem is this whatever they
think this is, and the only solution is to address
(09:08):
it in a totalitarian fashion, and we're taking everything away
and we're stopping everyone from doing it. But that same
level of thinking, of course, would never cross their minds
if they're talking about someone who had obvious mental health
issues and doing something about mental health, not doing something about, say,
taking guns away. Of course they wouldn't use the same
logic to go after a different conclusion because they don't
(09:30):
like that other conclusion. But here's the answer to the question,
the ridiculously asked question of how the truth gets in
the way of the narrative they want to tell.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
First off, anybody who is using this as an opportunity
to villainize trans people has completely lost touch with a
common humanity. Operate not off of hate for any community.
Operate off of love for our t kids. Kids died today.
(10:03):
This should be about protecting our children. This should be
about loving our children.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
And yes it should be. It absolutely should be about
protecting kids. By the way, in a different sense, what
would we do to prevent this from happening? No, it's
not take everybody's guns away. And I've talked about this
a bunch of times on my own and I know
and Dana does too, because the bad guys will still
get them. All you'll do is take guns out of
the hands of the good guys. The vast majority of
people who are responsible gun owners like myself and many
(10:31):
many others out there, And anyone who actually wants to
do harm will still go find a gun to do it.
So you're not going to solve anything. And you know it,
and you don't want to say that part out loud,
but one other last one.
Speaker 5 (10:41):
Too often, I feel like people will think of the
conclusion that they want to get to, and then they'll
like reverse manufacture the facts that they want to hear too.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
You're doing that point, That's what you're doing.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
You know, we should be standing up for our Catholic community,
by the way, right now, because this is a Catholic church.
We should be standing up for kids and churches and
schools and all that. Let's love each other. The antidote
to hate is not more hate. The antidote to hate
and cowardice, which clearly this shooter had, is not more hate.
(11:16):
Hurt people, hurt people. The antidote is love.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
I agree with that part of the message, by the way,
that the antidote is love, But how do you actually
do that? How do you go about that? Because the
amount of hate on the left for the right, the
things I'm saying on this show right now will cause
people to hate me, They'll cause people to hate Dana
for what she said the other day. And I have
no intent of telling you to harm someone or vilify
(11:42):
a group of individuals for whatever they think they are,
whoever they think that they were born to be. I'm
not telling you to hate anybody. That's not the intention
of this. I do actually want to fix the problem,
and I definitively know, and so do you, and so
do all of the politicians out there who've done things
to try to restrict gun access in the past. They
know none of that fixes this.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Keltech the PR fifty seven. It is a rotary barrel
pistol chambered in five seven, forty percent lighter than the
competition if you're looking for something for concealed carry, and
they 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 where a slimmer carry profile and a twenty plus
(12:26):
one capacity. It's a super fast and easy field strip
It's 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.

send you and.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Now all of the news you would probably miss. It's
I'm for Dana's Quick five. That's right, this is the
Quick five and the Dana Show. My name is Craig
Collins filling in d Lash, Dana Lash Radio and x
on Twitter. A great ways to stay connected to her.
Former NFL quarterback Matt Lionert got roasted by Alexa in
front of his son. This is sort of funny, interesting
(13:17):
audio that went viral.
Speaker 6 (13:18):
Here we go, Matt lightlet Matt Lenard was a Heisman
Trophy when you quarter back at USC and tracked him
nfrograf thank his career didn't know not too much.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Really, Yanke, that's true. It's not wrong. The pro career
didn't amount very much. But yes, that's something that Amazon
and its app told the children of Matt Lionert in
front of Matt Lionert, which is fantastic. I do like
that one a whole lot. A car salesman was fired
after he posted a TikTok video saying he overcharged a
(13:54):
single mom ten thousand dollars per car. The guy's name
is Kenny. He claimed it was a bad joke. Online
that went viral the Hanta dealership in Racing, Wisconsin. I
decided it was bad pr for them. I know people
who've worked as car salesmen, and some of them say
that the industry is uniquely awful, that you are encouraged
to do as many terrible things as possible to rip
(14:16):
people off. This probably feeds into a lot of that
fear and some of the reality in that industry. But
this is some of the audio about the guy claiming
it was all just a bad joke in a misunderstanding
that went crazy.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
I wanted to come out here and publicly apologize and
take ownership and accountability for my Actually I offended a lot,
a lot, a lot a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Okay, my account is based on satire. Everything that I
post is nothing but a joke. I would never post
actual true events. I want to apologize to the single mothers,
just women in general. I'm a single parent myself. I
know what that struggle was like, going to work, having
to take care of the kids or I found it
funny because it's unrealistic. The brand that I was once
selling for, they don't do markups, especially not a ten
(15:00):
thousand dollars mark up.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Fired, by the way, was the decision they made after
this guy went viral for claiming he had done something
that he said he didn't do. If there is a
woman that comes forward saying she's the woman that got
overcharged by the car that bought it from Kenny, he screwed.
But I do understand how people go on social media
and try to make sarcastic jokes to wind up hurting them.
So I'm not exactly a fan of cancel culture if
(15:22):
this is all just a joke. But I don't know
why he would find this funny, you know, to go
after the idea that someone ripped off a single mom
because a lot of people have done it and it's
not funny, And I understand why people thought it wasn't funny.
And it's uniquely bad if you're a sales guy, because
you want to convince people that you're trustworthy to go
viral for something like this. I don't know what other
place hires him like, I don't know where he lands
(15:43):
next in the old sales career. That was a uniquely
dumb decision that he made. All right, some other things
out there for quick top five stuff that I thought
was kind of funny. Seventy two percent of Americans do
not care that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are engaged,
even though it seemed to quote break the Internet and
cause all kinds of social media records. I am very
(16:05):
much in that seventy two percent that did not care,
and even more than that, I think this is kind
of amusing. It actually makes me more upset at the
idea that the NFL season that's coming up might somehow
feature Taylor Swift again. It needs to stop, man. Although
I get why it's happening, especially in the wake of
the fact that this had as much popularity as it
(16:26):
did with the thirty percent of people who talked about
it a whole bunch, they might watch more sports. They
might sit there and be annoying during the NFL game
every time that Taylor Swift comes on TV and are
excited about it. I just like the other people are
mad when she comes on TV as well. The only
thing I've ever liked about any part of this is
that it caused a lot of daughters to sit with
(16:47):
pop and watch NFL games with them, and that I
think is cool. But I do think that inevitably you're
kind of hoping that the kid winds up interested in
the football part of the equation, and I'm guessing that
doesn't always turn out the way that some of these
guys might hope. I've But nonetheless, this is a story
out there that seems very obvious. My favorite part of
it is my wife did tell me about it, and
(17:07):
I saw social media jokes of other dudes saying their
wives told them about it, and I reacted very much
like all the parody accounts claim they did, like, Okay,
I don't care, it'll be fine, everything's great. Thanks for
letting me know a thing that doesn't change my life
at all. All Right. Finally, the top three scariest natural
disasters do not include hurricanes, according to people. This is
(17:29):
a recent survey a Talker research. I think did this
Tornado came in at number one, Sunami number two, earthquake
number three, hurricane was number four. I think it all
depends on location, location, location, where you live in the
likelihood of any sort of potential thing being the thing
that happens to you is probably what you're most afraid of.
My wife was more afraid of some things when we
(17:50):
didn't live in Texas. She's afraid of hurricanes now that
we live in Houston. Other things I want to talk about.
I am a giant Yankee fan. I think I've mentioned
that on this show before. It's not usually real to
the stuff we talk about on the Data Show, unless
the Yankees are uniquely getting beat up, which seems to
be a thing. More often than all. They do sweep
bad teams. So that's nice. But Mark to Shaa, former
(18:10):
first Basement for World Series winning New York Yankees, announced
his candidacy for a congress seat in Texas around San
Antonio is where this seat is located, the twenty first
Congressional district. I am beyond excited. There are not many
times in my political radio talk show career the show
I do in Houston, which Dana is actually on that station.
(18:32):
We are an affiliate station of hers, Patriot Talk nine
to twenty. For anyone that wants to listen to that
station when Dana is on or I'm on, that'd be nice,
But there's not a lot of opportunities where you can
talk politics and sports with a person like this. I
immediately sent contact to their press department, being like I
would love to do it. I'm filling in for data
on these days. I'm doing this other stuff on these days.
(18:52):
Please jump on Mark and talk to me about more
than just politics. Talk to me about what it's like
to hit home runs in World Series games. But yes,
that is a big candidacy being mentioned. I hope to
share a wins man. I also find this funny in
a different way, and this is just something to mention.
Nestor Cortez is a former Yankee. He's the guy that
(19:13):
had a mustache, that was a pretty good pitcher, even
though maybe at times not exactly as good as you'd
hope he'd be. I didn't have quite the stuff that
you'd expect him to have to be as successful as
he was. You don't care about that part. Anyway, He
attended a Trump rally. There was a rally when Trump
was running for office this most recent time where he
name dropped Nestor Cortez and talked about his fastball, which
(19:35):
was deceptive, not necessarily very fast. But anyway, I just
thought that was so funny, because then Nestor got traded.
He left New York at some point after. Whether that's
because Yankee fans would reject a conservative or not, I
don't know. I doubt they'll reject to share though. He's
a very different version of Yankee because he won a
World Series and that's something a lot of people haven't
(19:56):
won currently on that team, anyone currently on that team,
although Labor Torres might win one with a different team,
which is said, and you don't care, and I have
to move on. But I'm just excited about this, so
I figured i'd throw it into the ether of stuff.
We're talking about that Mark Tishera is running for a
congressional seat, and of course Texas excuse me, finally succeeded
(20:17):
in its redistricting. The Democrats ran away, made a national
spectacle of deciding to not show up to do their jobs,
and then when they finally did decide that they had
to show up. And now there's going to be new
penalties in place if you run away again, and even
lawyers that advise them they should just go back. They
did the thing we expected all along. They lost. So
(20:37):
Texas has redistricted. There are certain parts of Houston where
I live that people now think are very much up
for grabs, are potentially going to go to conservative representation,
which is good because living here and walking around. There's
a bunch of people in certain communities who seem to
be supporters of the side that's not well represented in
our current government. A lot of Democrats in a lot
(20:58):
of positions of power. It'd be nice to see some
more Republicans there. But there's even other races where Democrats
assume that they're actually still going to win, where I
do like some of the fighting that might be going on.
We actually might be talking to one of those politicians
a Carmen Montille in the near future on this show
and some other things that I do, because she's running
in a district that got redistricted in a way that
(21:19):
would hurt conservatives, and she's not letting it defeat her.
I think that's interesting because the other thing I think
is kind of funny about this when we talk about
these topics, and I wonder if the main, you know,
everyday human person who doesn't obsess about politics, even cares
about this stuff all that much. So I'll say this
in a way that hopefully makes you care if you don't.
(21:40):
But I love how much politicians just assume they're going
to win here or win there. They look at certain numbers,
certain turnout rates, and are like, Okay, this is a
lock for us, so much so that if you were
part of the behind the scenes world of politics, you'd
assume the race isn't even important, Like the topics aren't
even important, the stances aren't important. I'd love it if
a bunch of a mans throughout this country could prove
(22:02):
to the politicians that the things they say actually do matter,
that the races do matter, and people can show up
and flood ballot boxes and win elections. Because also during
an off year, during a midterm election or a special
election in the case of some of this stuff, a
whole lot of people don't show up. So the amount
of people, the amount of support it would take to
actually flip something is way less than what it used
(22:25):
to be years ago. So you could do this quite easily,
and Texas could go from creating the assumption of four
or five six congressional seats to like ten congressional seats
or something, which would be amazing, which would be very,
very different. But again, I would just love to remind
people and have other voters in the places I live
remind people that you actually have to run the race,
(22:45):
and you actually have to say stuff out loud. It's
not just the world of the presidency where that matters,
where Biden and Harris cannot win an election against Donald
Trump because neither one of them could put together coherent
sentences that seem to actually have stances on things. Any
as they actually took on stuff, especially Harris, seemed way
further to the left than what they wanted to say
(23:05):
in public. But nonetheless, I do think this is interesting,
as I said, and I do think we'll see how
it all plays out. As California, Illinois other places are
going to try to redistrict even harder, Jerry Mander back
even harder, and create more seats in their places. Again,
the American people would do well right now to remind
the politicians we're actually in power by voting and showing
(23:29):
up in places where they assume a certain side's going
to win something. Not because I want to see conservatives lose.
I want Conservatives to win more, not less seats. That
would be great, But I would also love to watch
places like California and Illinois be shocked when they don't
manufacture wins for Democrats, which I think can happen, and
certainly I think it can happen to some of the
districts has created in Texas, even after the assumption is
(23:51):
we're probably going to lose that race here or this
race there. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of

Dana Lashes of surd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech. It's
his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time for
Florida Man. That's right, It's time for Florida Man. This
is the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins, filling
in d Lash Dana Lash Radio on X on Twitter
(00:21):
to stay connected to her. I got three of them
for you today. First, some people seem surprised by this,
but if you know anything about Florida, maybe you're not
all that surprise. There were some people driving around a
seven thousand dollars mobile dispensary. Vehicle surveillance foiled a Florida
man who was driving his weed products, his edibles, everything
(00:43):
in a van. This happened in Fort Myers, actually the
weed van. I captured the man stealing seven thousand dollars
in merchandise from another place and trying to make off
with it. All of this is crazy, according to Lee
County Sheriff's Office. The suspect later identified as thirty one
year old Zachary Jolly. I don't know why. I'm amused
that his last name is Jolly. Broke a window gained
(01:04):
access to a mobile dispensary dubbed Queen of Weed and
then stole a whole bunch of stuff in it. A
surveillange footage obtained by deputies show Folly filling a trash
can with edibles, mushrooms and vapes and then making off
with the trash can. Just an interesting set of decisions
being made by this moron. But Florida the big takeaways.
They have weed trucks and so another guy out there
(01:27):
in Florida was attacked by a bear at his house.
It's a real story. A black bear walked up to
a dude's house in Florida. This was at four thirty am.
I don't know why the guy was awake. He got
scratches on his arm and stuff, but mostly he won
by just yelling at the bear to go away. I
would play the audio, but there's bad words in there too.
The dude said he was in a haze when he
(01:48):
opened the door that early in the morning with you know,
doorbell video camera, saying that certain things were happening, and
then he sees a bear. The bear hits him in
the arm and stuff, and he's lucky to be a
lot because you just started to yell at the bear,
like go away, get away from me bear, and that
seemed to be effective. So if you want that as
a proof of concept to show to the missus or
(02:10):
show to anyone else. Whenever you say that you could
defeat a bear in some sort of you know fight,
there you go. At least one time it worked out
the way it's supposed to. I'm not sure if it'll
happen if you try it too. I'm not recommending you
do that, by the way. And finally, a Florida woman
was arrested for allegedly super gluing veneers of victim's teeth
directly to their faces without any sort of license. She
(02:32):
claimed to be a dentist. You had to go over
her house to get the procedure done. There was nobody
else there, just her. She was really cheap, though, so
a bunch of people in Florida are like, well, I
want veneers and I don't want to pay real money
for it, so this seems fine. Surprise surprise that the
lady using super glue to glue things onto your teeth
was not, in fact a licensed dentist in a place
(02:53):
like Florida. I would never go to any home in
Florida for any kind of mental procedure, of any medical
procedure of any kind, mostly because I'd be afraid I'd
wake up without kids. That's just me assuming that. But again,
you decide what you need to do. I'm going that road.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
This is the Dana Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in, thrilled to be with you. A bunch of
stuff out there to talk about. Let's play this audio.
This is audio from ms now I like saying that, actually,
it's so stupid MSNBC. They're freaking out. They're upset about
a lot of the things that are going on and
being talked about. So Jensaki terrible in her role when
(04:19):
she was the White House Press Secretary. Not because she
was bad at evading questions. She's actually pretty good at that.
Just terrible and a lot of the lies she was
willing to tell then and a lot of the lies
she's willing to tell now. But she did an interview
with may Or Frey who said that praying is bad.
I know that's not what he actually said, It just
felt that way based on the fact that he said
(04:39):
thoughts and prayers are something you can't send to families
that obviously care about faith after a horrible thing happens
out of families yesterday in Minneapolis, Minnesota, children were praying
in a church at school and a shooter came in,
or a shooter shot through the windows and killed two
kids and harmed a bunch of others. Just horrible, and
I hate but I want to play it for a
(05:01):
specific reason that might not be just being a pundit
again and reacting to what you're probably hearing all over
the place is people's opinions of the stupidity of the
secondary and third level conversations that come from a very
obvious and simple conversation. Someone with a mental health issue
killed children. We should think that's bad and we should
be fighting mental health. But here Snaki and the mayor.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Yeah, I have been thinking about them as my own
all day, as I know many people watching have been
thinking about them as their own.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
Well.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
It's, by the way, the thing I most hate about
when the left says that too. They say this about
teachers all the time, like teachers see your children as yours.
I see kids as my kids. Even if there might
be truth in the fact that when something horrific happens,
if you're a parent and it happens to kids, you
absolutely picture I wou it would be like if you
(05:53):
harm came to your family and that's how scared mad,
all those things that you might get. But even as
you say that, like this is again using this for
some sort of manipulative reason to try to then transition
to the other topics you want to talk about. It's
not necessary and honestly thinking about it within the terms
of my own life or my own family or anyone
else is even more you'd want to turn to God
(06:15):
and pray, then try to vilify God, not what they do.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Well fresh here, it's just happened this morning, and there's
already been sort of some effort, which I think is
so sick and disgusting to weaponize some of the details,
even if we don't know a lot at this point
in time, and obviously the law enforcement in your city
have been keeping people abreast, including details about the individual
(06:38):
possibly being trands, about the individual possibly having negative things
to say about Trump, about some things that.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Have been and all those things are true, they're facts
on the weapons.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
A lot of this is just very early reporting. What
do you do as a leader of your city to
prevent details from being weaponized and using this to blame
something other and the guns.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
I want to stop it right there. That was my
favorite part of what she said, and it goes way
beyond the tragedy of yesterday. She just said out loud
in a way that she thinks is okay. How do
you prevent the truth from shaping the narrative? That's what
she said. You don't want the truth itself sometimes in
these places to bogart the mission of whatever it is
(07:23):
you're trying to sell the American people and claim is
true even though they can easily tell it's not. That's
the question to a leader of a city after a
horrible tragedy happens that day, and the answer is going
to be terrible, and I will play it in a second.
But I just can't get over the ridiculousness of that.
And also the fact that media media exactly like X
(07:46):
now is allowing us to know the full story where
they would hide it. And there's even one other thing.
And I feel like I've talked about it filling in
on the show before, but I've been in rooms where
news directors of small market radio stations or you know,
individuals who are parts of bigger radio groups say something
(08:07):
out loud where they think, well, we can't tell them
the truth because if we do, it's somehow gonna harm
someone else here or there or some other way. And
how freaking insane is that? Like it's sort of surreal
to be in the room and sit there and not
want to explode. And I couldn't because that would have
only made things worse for me. In any of the
places I was in, I definitely didn't listen to the
(08:27):
thing they said. I told the truth on whatever shows
I was a part of, because darn it, that's important.
But nonetheless, even if you're told you can't tell the truth,
you might get fired for telling the truth. It's insane
because these people, some of them, actually think they're doing
good work. They actually think like, oh, we're helping in
this society, we're making things better. We promise that what
(08:47):
we're doing is somehow for the greater good, even if
we're seeing the bad continue to play out. It's actually
the same argument, and this is something I meant to
get into I didn't. Maybe we'll talk about it more later,
that the uses to try to take away guns. They
try to say that the problem is this whatever they
think this is, and the only solution is to address
(09:08):
it in a totalitarian fashion, and we're taking everything away
and we're stopping everyone from doing it. But that same
level of thinking, of course, would never cross their minds
if they're talking about someone who had obvious mental health
issues and doing something about mental health, not doing something about, say,
taking guns away. Of course they wouldn't use the same
logic to go after a different conclusion because they don't
(09:30):
like that other conclusion. But here's the answer to the question,
the ridiculously asked question of how the truth gets in
the way of the narrative they want to tell.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
First off, anybody who is using this as an opportunity
to villainize trans people has completely lost touch with a
common humanity. Operate not off of hate for any community.
Operate off of love for our t kids. Kids died today.
(10:03):
This should be about protecting our children. This should be
about loving our children.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
And yes it should be. It absolutely should be about
protecting kids. By the way, in a different sense, what
would we do to prevent this from happening? No, it's
not take everybody's guns away. And I've talked about this
a bunch of times on my own and I know
and Dana does too, because the bad guys will still
get them. All you'll do is take guns out of
the hands of the good guys. The vast majority of
people who are responsible gun owners like myself and many
(10:31):
many others out there, And anyone who actually wants to
do harm will still go find a gun to do it.
So you're not going to solve anything. And you know it,
and you don't want to say that part out loud,
but one other last one.
Speaker 5 (10:41):
Too often, I feel like people will think of the
conclusion that they want to get to, and then they'll
like reverse manufacture the facts that they want to hear too.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
You're doing that point, That's what you're doing.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
You know, we should be standing up for our Catholic community,
by the way, right now, because this is a Catholic church.
We should be standing up for kids and churches and
schools and all that. Let's love each other. The antidote
to hate is not more hate. The antidote to hate
and cowardice, which clearly this shooter had, is not more hate.
(11:16):
Hurt people, hurt people. The antidote is love.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
I agree with that part of the message, by the way,
that the antidote is love, But how do you actually
do that? How do you go about that? Because the
amount of hate on the left for the right, the
things I'm saying on this show right now will cause
people to hate me, They'll cause people to hate Dana
for what she said the other day. And I have
no intent of telling you to harm someone or vilify
(11:42):
a group of individuals for whatever they think they are,
whoever they think that they were born to be. I'm
not telling you to hate anybody. That's not the intention
of this. I do actually want to fix the problem,
and I definitively know, and so do you, and so
do all of the politicians out there who've done things
to try to restrict gun access in the past. They
know none of that fixes this.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Keltech the PR fifty seven. It is a rotary barrel
pistol chambered in five seven, forty percent lighter than the
competition if you're looking for something for concealed carry, and
they 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 where a slimmer carry profile and a twenty plus
(12:26):
one capacity. It's a super fast and easy field strip
It's 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.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Now all of the news you would probably miss. It's
I'm for Dana's Quick five. That's right, this is the
Quick five and the Dana Show. My name is Craig
Collins filling in d Lash, Dana Lash Radio and x
on Twitter. A great ways to stay connected to her.
Former NFL quarterback Matt Lionert got roasted by Alexa in
front of his son. This is sort of funny, interesting
(13:17):
audio that went viral.
Speaker 6 (13:18):
Here we go, Matt lightlet Matt Lenard was a Heisman
Trophy when you quarter back at USC and tracked him
nfrograf thank his career didn't know not too much.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Really, Yanke, that's true. It's not wrong. The pro career
didn't amount very much. But yes, that's something that Amazon
and its app told the children of Matt Lionert in
front of Matt Lionert, which is fantastic. I do like
that one a whole lot. A car salesman was fired
after he posted a TikTok video saying he overcharged a
(13:54):
single mom ten thousand dollars per car. The guy's name
is Kenny. He claimed it was a bad joke. Online
that went viral the Hanta dealership in Racing, Wisconsin. I
decided it was bad pr for them. I know people
who've worked as car salesmen, and some of them say
that the industry is uniquely awful, that you are encouraged
to do as many terrible things as possible to rip
(14:16):
people off. This probably feeds into a lot of that
fear and some of the reality in that industry. But
this is some of the audio about the guy claiming
it was all just a bad joke in a misunderstanding
that went crazy.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
I wanted to come out here and publicly apologize and
take ownership and accountability for my Actually I offended a lot,
a lot, a lot a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Okay, my account is based on satire. Everything that I
post is nothing but a joke. I would never post
actual true events. I want to apologize to the single mothers,
just women in general. I'm a single parent myself. I
know what that struggle was like, going to work, having
to take care of the kids or I found it
funny because it's unrealistic. The brand that I was once
selling for, they don't do markups, especially not a ten
(15:00):
thousand dollars mark up.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Fired, by the way, was the decision they made after
this guy went viral for claiming he had done something
that he said he didn't do. If there is a
woman that comes forward saying she's the woman that got
overcharged by the car that bought it from Kenny, he screwed.
But I do understand how people go on social media
and try to make sarcastic jokes to wind up hurting them.
So I'm not exactly a fan of cancel culture if
(15:22):
this is all just a joke. But I don't know
why he would find this funny, you know, to go
after the idea that someone ripped off a single mom
because a lot of people have done it and it's
not funny, And I understand why people thought it wasn't funny.
And it's uniquely bad if you're a sales guy, because
you want to convince people that you're trustworthy to go
viral for something like this. I don't know what other
place hires him like, I don't know where he lands
(15:43):
next in the old sales career. That was a uniquely
dumb decision that he made. All right, some other things
out there for quick top five stuff that I thought
was kind of funny. Seventy two percent of Americans do
not care that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are engaged,
even though it seemed to quote break the Internet and
cause all kinds of social media records. I am very
(16:05):
much in that seventy two percent that did not care,
and even more than that, I think this is kind
of amusing. It actually makes me more upset at the
idea that the NFL season that's coming up might somehow
feature Taylor Swift again. It needs to stop, man. Although
I get why it's happening, especially in the wake of
the fact that this had as much popularity as it
(16:26):
did with the thirty percent of people who talked about
it a whole bunch, they might watch more sports. They
might sit there and be annoying during the NFL game
every time that Taylor Swift comes on TV and are
excited about it. I just like the other people are
mad when she comes on TV as well. The only
thing I've ever liked about any part of this is
that it caused a lot of daughters to sit with
(16:47):
pop and watch NFL games with them, and that I
think is cool. But I do think that inevitably you're
kind of hoping that the kid winds up interested in
the football part of the equation, and I'm guessing that
doesn't always turn out the way that some of these
guys might hope. I've But nonetheless, this is a story
out there that seems very obvious. My favorite part of
it is my wife did tell me about it, and
(17:07):
I saw social media jokes of other dudes saying their
wives told them about it, and I reacted very much
like all the parody accounts claim they did, like, Okay,
I don't care, it'll be fine, everything's great. Thanks for
letting me know a thing that doesn't change my life
at all. All Right. Finally, the top three scariest natural
disasters do not include hurricanes, according to people. This is
(17:29):
a recent survey a Talker research. I think did this
Tornado came in at number one, Sunami number two, earthquake
number three, hurricane was number four. I think it all
depends on location, location, location, where you live in the
likelihood of any sort of potential thing being the thing
that happens to you is probably what you're most afraid of.
My wife was more afraid of some things when we
(17:50):
didn't live in Texas. She's afraid of hurricanes now that
we live in Houston. Other things I want to talk about.
I am a giant Yankee fan. I think I've mentioned
that on this show before. It's not usually real to
the stuff we talk about on the Data Show, unless
the Yankees are uniquely getting beat up, which seems to
be a thing. More often than all. They do sweep
bad teams. So that's nice. But Mark to Shaa, former
(18:10):
first Basement for World Series winning New York Yankees, announced
his candidacy for a congress seat in Texas around San
Antonio is where this seat is located, the twenty first
Congressional district. I am beyond excited. There are not many
times in my political radio talk show career the show
I do in Houston, which Dana is actually on that station.
(18:32):
We are an affiliate station of hers, Patriot Talk nine
to twenty. For anyone that wants to listen to that
station when Dana is on or I'm on, that'd be nice,
But there's not a lot of opportunities where you can
talk politics and sports with a person like this. I
immediately sent contact to their press department, being like I
would love to do it. I'm filling in for data
on these days. I'm doing this other stuff on these days.
(18:52):
Please jump on Mark and talk to me about more
than just politics. Talk to me about what it's like
to hit home runs in World Series games. But yes,
that is a big candidacy being mentioned. I hope to
share a wins man. I also find this funny in
a different way, and this is just something to mention.
Nestor Cortez is a former Yankee. He's the guy that
(19:13):
had a mustache, that was a pretty good pitcher, even
though maybe at times not exactly as good as you'd
hope he'd be. I didn't have quite the stuff that
you'd expect him to have to be as successful as
he was. You don't care about that part. Anyway, He
attended a Trump rally. There was a rally when Trump
was running for office this most recent time where he
name dropped Nestor Cortez and talked about his fastball, which
(19:35):
was deceptive, not necessarily very fast. But anyway, I just
thought that was so funny, because then Nestor got traded.
He left New York at some point after. Whether that's
because Yankee fans would reject a conservative or not, I
don't know. I doubt they'll reject to share though. He's
a very different version of Yankee because he won a
World Series and that's something a lot of people haven't
(19:56):
won currently on that team, anyone currently on that team,
although Labor Torres might win one with a different team,
which is said, and you don't care, and I have
to move on. But I'm just excited about this, so
I figured i'd throw it into the ether of stuff.
We're talking about that Mark Tishera is running for a
congressional seat, and of course Texas excuse me, finally succeeded
(20:17):
in its redistricting. The Democrats ran away, made a national
spectacle of deciding to not show up to do their jobs,
and then when they finally did decide that they had
to show up. And now there's going to be new
penalties in place if you run away again, and even
lawyers that advise them they should just go back. They
did the thing we expected all along. They lost. So
(20:37):
Texas has redistricted. There are certain parts of Houston where
I live that people now think are very much up
for grabs, are potentially going to go to conservative representation,
which is good because living here and walking around. There's
a bunch of people in certain communities who seem to
be supporters of the side that's not well represented in
our current government. A lot of Democrats in a lot
(20:58):
of positions of power. It'd be nice to see some
more Republicans there. But there's even other races where Democrats
assume that they're actually still going to win, where I
do like some of the fighting that might be going on.
We actually might be talking to one of those politicians
a Carmen Montille in the near future on this show
and some other things that I do, because she's running
in a district that got redistricted in a way that
(21:19):
would hurt conservatives, and she's not letting it defeat her.
I think that's interesting because the other thing I think
is kind of funny about this when we talk about
these topics, and I wonder if the main, you know,
everyday human person who doesn't obsess about politics, even cares
about this stuff all that much. So I'll say this
in a way that hopefully makes you care if you don't.
(21:40):
But I love how much politicians just assume they're going
to win here or win there. They look at certain numbers,
certain turnout rates, and are like, Okay, this is a
lock for us, so much so that if you were
part of the behind the scenes world of politics, you'd
assume the race isn't even important, Like the topics aren't
even important, the stances aren't important. I'd love it if
a bunch of a mans throughout this country could prove
(22:02):
to the politicians that the things they say actually do matter,
that the races do matter, and people can show up
and flood ballot boxes and win elections. Because also during
an off year, during a midterm election or a special
election in the case of some of this stuff, a
whole lot of people don't show up. So the amount
of people, the amount of support it would take to
actually flip something is way less than what it used
(22:25):
to be years ago. So you could do this quite easily,
and Texas could go from creating the assumption of four
or five six congressional seats to like ten congressional seats
or something, which would be amazing, which would be very,
very different. But again, I would just love to remind
people and have other voters in the places I live
remind people that you actually have to run the race,
(22:45):
and you actually have to say stuff out loud. It's
not just the world of the presidency where that matters,
where Biden and Harris cannot win an election against Donald
Trump because neither one of them could put together coherent
sentences that seem to actually have stances on things. Any
as they actually took on stuff, especially Harris, seemed way
further to the left than what they wanted to say
(23:05):
in public. But nonetheless, I do think this is interesting,
as I said, and I do think we'll see how
it all plays out. As California, Illinois other places are
going to try to redistrict even harder, Jerry Mander back
even harder, and create more seats in their places. Again,
the American people would do well right now to remind
the politicians we're actually in power by voting and showing
(23:29):
up in places where they assume a certain side's going
to win something. Not because I want to see conservatives lose.
I want Conservatives to win more, not less seats. That
would be great, But I would also love to watch
places like California and Illinois be shocked when they don't
manufacture wins for Democrats, which I think can happen, and
certainly I think it can happen to some of the
districts has created in Texas, even after the assumption is
(23:51):
we're probably going to lose that race here or this
race there. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of
