Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dana Lashes of surd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's his life mission to make bad decisions.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
It's time for Florida Man.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
All right, So first up, Oh my gosh, seven outside
the seven eleven in Sarasota. What is happening? Giant alligator
was being wrestled outside of I mean, this thing is huge.
That's a person eating gator. The uh, this is crazy.
He was outside of the seven eleven. I don't know

(00:37):
what he's doing out there, but man, ten feet three
inch long gator and they had to get a professional
alligator wrangler. They couldn't just have Florida Fish and wildlife.
They had to get a dude who's used to these
biggins and he had to like get it to a
crazy big cage. This thing is enormous. And by the way,

(01:01):
that's the second time that they've had to come and
get a gator out of an area in Sarasota. But
this thing was huge. Yeah, the first The first one
was a fourteen foot one. Did they come that big?
I didn't even know they did. Holy cow, what are
they eating down there? So? I mean, and there's a
video of it. They were m mano. They run fast,

(01:23):
just remember if you're getting chased by gators, zigzag zigzag,
it's literally all I remember. I feel like learning how
to run from a gator, stop dropping and roll, and
learning how to get out of quicksand I thought I
would be on fire getting eaten by alligators, and also
like being in quicksand a lot more than I was
than I am. I don't know, I got. We got
a lot of questions. So that's crazy though. Giant alligator.

(01:44):
That's one showing you on the simulcast how big this
thing is? Jemmy Christmas, all right, So Ups, since a
Florida man five hundred dollars after losing track of a
package worth forty five thousand dollars. Wow, it was a
rare part for a large hydrogen compressor. Gustavo Gonzales was

(02:08):
ordering it, and it didn't They didn't deliver it to him.
They gave it to the wrong person, and then they
sent the unit back to the sender. It was yeah,
and so he was doing it from UPS the store
in Hunter Creek, Florida, and yeah, it was a piece

(02:28):
of specialized equipment worth over forty five thousand, and somebody
else signed for the package and he repeatedly contacted them,
and they only gave him a five hundred dollars refund.
That's it. So now he's got to take action against it. Yeah,
because he's out forty five thousand dollars. It's insane. Do

(02:49):
you remember the lady who was wearing the red shirt
at Target and she was getting harassed by that what
was her name? MICHAELA. Ponce who worked at Eppen Health,
And they actually are investigating her and they're trying to
see if I guess it, if it goes up to
criminal harassment. I don't what town was that in because

(03:10):
I don't even know if that's if that's one party
or two party consent state that they were in. Anyway,
the lady who was being harassed the Internet came to
her rescue. America came to her rescue. Her name is
Mss Jeanie Beeman and this has cut twenty six. She
spoke out for the first time after this. Listen. I

(03:33):
know people are calling.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
For her to be fired for this.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
Do you think that that's right?

Speaker 1 (03:37):
Would you like not to happen?

Speaker 4 (03:38):
No? I don't think that's that's right. Like one thing
I have is two wrongs don't make a right. You know,
she wronged me that I don't want to wrong her
or I don't want her her wrong if it's not
going to make it right. I mean, that was her opinion.

(03:59):
She she's the one that fitted on Facebook or fitted on.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
On that, So.

Speaker 4 (04:08):
You know that I really wouldn't want to see her
somebody lose their job over it, ma'am.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
If anybody needs any grace, she's got it. She's got enough.
She's got enough for everybody. That is impressive because that
wasn't my initial reaction, and I still don't know if
that's my reaction. But what I hope that MICHAELA. Ponce
watches that video of MS Beemon and listens to her grace,

(04:44):
And I hope that the next time she encounters someone
that has an opinion different from her own, that she
gets over herself just enough, gets over her own selfishness,
her own self aggrandizement, and maybe does the godly thing
of demon's grace for someone just because they're wearing a
T shirt that you dislike, and it's not even a

(05:06):
provocative T shirt either. It reminds me of that. Do
you remember I know I wrote about this. Let me
look this up because This was back during I think
twoenty twelve and I wrote about this and it was

(05:30):
in Tucson, Arizona, and this was in August of twenty twelve,
and a man named Adam Smith. This is when people
were protesting Chick fil A because they found out that
the original owner, although not Chick fil A is very different,
but the original owner was Christian, and for some reason
they decided to get all mad at Chick fil A
about gay marriage. And then me and Christian, I don't
even understand how it happened, but it did. And so

(05:52):
they would have gay activists that were going through Chick
fil A and getting a free cup of water and
then just trying to clog it up by getting free water.
Chick fil A was like, well, we'll serve you water.
We don't care. And he went up to the drive
through window and he was harassing this young woman who

(06:17):
was at the register. She was doing the checkout. She
was just there. She was super sweet, very nice, and
this guy decided on video recording himself on video harassing her,
this Chick fil A employee, and he was like, you're
a hateful company. I don't know how you see at
night or sleep at night and all this other stuff,
and it was really I mean, he was so nasty

(06:39):
to her, so nasty to her, and she was very kind,
but you could see the hurt in her eyes. You
could see the hurt in her eyes. I wrote about
this at the time. And she was just saying, have
a nice day, gave him his water, and she was
just literally the picture of grace. But you could tell
it hurt her and her voice shook a little bit,

(07:00):
but she still kept her kindness. And he thought he was,
you know, hot stuff, and he recorded himself. Well that
blew up. He ended up getting fired and he removed
the video. He made an eight minute apology video. The

(07:20):
only thing that we knew was the the the employee,
the young woman named Rachel. She only gave one interview.
She said she did not She's not like the influencers
you see today who would like be running out and
trying to make a career out of it. She was like, nope,
I'm happy with what I'm doing. She was engaged, she
was getting ready to start her life. She liked where
she was and she said that she didn't understand why

(07:43):
he was so angry with her. And you know that
it did hurt her, but she said that she did
not want to return that hurt and I remember her
quote being something like, obviously he was hurting, and I
don't I didn't want to add to that hurt. And
I thought, oh my gosh, and she was, you know
when all of this happened. I think, I mean, this
was like in twenty twelve. I think I was, what

(08:04):
of my thirties or no, yeah, I was like thirty
years old or something when this happened, because she at
the time was just a few years younger than me.
And I'm just thinking, you know, it was very humbling,
because you know, you see these videos and you want
to go to war for these people, and she is
like no, and she didn't want to do any more media,
and she was so kind and so full of grace.

(08:26):
This woman, Miss Beeson, reminds me of that girl Rachel
that worked at Chick fil A back in twenty twelve.
Miss Beeson's grace what an example of grace for this season.
God love that woman. She is amazing that that is
the type of person people should be looking up to,
not these grifters people like Miss Jeanie Beeman. God lover her.

(08:49):
We got a lot more on the way. We had
Florida Man coming up. Brace yourselves are partners that he'll
make the program possible. It is the folks over at Preborn.
You can help them meet their year in goal. They're
trying to get ultrasounds and all of these women's clinics
and twenty eight dollars provides a free ultrasound to a
woman who's considering life. Every mother served by Preborn faces

(09:09):
this a life changing moment. And when preborn have, when
Preborn has, women meet their babies through these ultrasounds. And again,
twenty eight dollars is all it costs. That baby's chance
at life actually doubles. It's a pretty amazing thing. And
there's numerous studies that show this too. By the way,

(09:29):
and with Preborn, you don't have to stop at just
twenty eight dollars for a free ultrasound. You can donate
one hundred, you can donate one hundred and fifty. Whatever
you donate, it goes right directly to these women. It's
tax deductible, and it helps them make the choice of life.
And Preborn doesn't just stop at the ultrasounds. I mean
they partner with these women for the first two years

(09:51):
of their lives, and they help with counseling and maternity
in diapers and so much more. Fifteen thousand dollars purchases
one whole ultrasun on machine. And because of a special
matching grant this year, your gift is instantly doubled. So
your gift today's instantly doubled. If you donate at fifteen
thousand for an Ultrasell machine, that means there's two ultrasoll

(10:14):
machines because of your donation, and it equips clinics with
two life saving machines. Since two thousand and seven, they've
saved half a million babies. That's a whole generation. So
consider supporting Preborn this Christmas and support the goal of life.
And because of that special matching grant, your donation today
is instantly doubled. To donate securely, dial pound two fifty
say the word baby, or visit preborn dot com slash Dana.

(10:36):
That's pound two fifty say the word baby. Every gift

Speaker 2 (10:41):
And now all of the news you would probably miss.

Speaker 3 (10:44):
It's time for Dana's quick five.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Oh Hunter Biden got disbarred. Guys, I know you're so
sad about that. Hunter Biden was disbarred in Connecticut after well,
good heavens, after admitting to an attorney missconduct over the
gun charges, the tax conviction, and a million other things
was a part of agreement agreement with the States Lawyers

(11:08):
Discipline's office. But he did not admit to any kind
of criminal wrongdoing, which I thought was interesting. So he's
not admitting to criminal wrongdoing just this, So hmm, that's
I actually thought it. I'm kind of shocked that it
took that long, if I'm being honest. The Oscars bolts
from ABC to YouTube starting in twenty twenty nine. No

(11:29):
one cares. No one cares because no one's going to
watch your stupid naval gazing, self absorbed movies that cover
stupid concepts that regular, average, everyday people can't empathize or
resonate with. That don't resonate with us because they're actually
poorly written. Most of it's all about getting the good
actresses and then making a cinematography look good, but then
everything else goes to Haiti's in handbasket. Having more muscle

(11:53):
and less hidden abdominal fact gives you a younger brain. Interesting,
So my brain's probably like five years old. Now I'm kidding.
It's the benefits of strength training weren't extensive enough a
younger brain. It is super important to do strength training.
Holy cat way important. Strong Ulco's strong mind. I believe

(12:15):
all that stuff. I think it helps promote a bunch
of other stuff in the body releases all the good endwarphins,
et cetera. Bitcoins silent exodus hits crypto as longtime buyers
cash out. I feel like every day it's either a
devastating headline about crypto or it's a headline that's super celebratory.
There's never anything like, hey, just checking in, Bitcoin's okay.

(12:37):
Never ever, it's always one or the other. It's just
drama over there. The Earth would have three days to
avoid a satellite catastrophe from a solar storm. This coming
from a new calculation with these scientists. They're looking at
everything from starlink, et cetera, and they're saying that they're

(12:57):
a major solar storm could take down like all of
our satellites. It could be disastrous. They said that in
twenty eighteen they had operators had one hundred and twenty
one days to avoid a smaller sort of accident of
a similar nature. The Earth is currently in a period
of solar maximum, meaning solar storms are sending coronal mass

(13:20):
ejections that have resulted in the views of northern lights
much further south than normal. That also messes with navigation,
communication systems things like that. So also, ooh, look at
this one. This is pulled on. Oooh, this is weird.
Former manager of Harvard Medical Schools Morgue and his wife

(13:42):
were sentenced in federal court in Pennsylvania because they were
stealing human remains and selling them. Oh yeah, Cedric Lodge
fifty eight. He was sentenced Tuesday. He and his wife
both pled guilty to interstate transport of remains. Ooh, stick
with us, it's kooky. Now. Look, I'm not gonna tell you.
I'm not gonna use stupid phrases like starter guns. Starter

(14:04):
gun is a phrase that's made up by executives who
have never held a pistol in their life, and they're
probably also low tee. So let's just get that phrase
out of the way. We're not talking about anything like that.
Here's what I'm telling you. I mean, I carried on
my hip last night. I have no problem using lethal
force to put down a threat. None, I will do
it joyfully and sleep soundly that night. That said, you

(14:24):
got college kids that live in towns where they can't
they let they're too young to carry a pistol and
they need it for defense. Think about it walking to
the parking garage, walking to their classes late at night.
One of my kids friends has a final like six o'clock,
it's already dark, six o'clock night, then has to walk
back to the parking garage. This can be a danger.
Or what if you have to go to a building

(14:45):
for work where you can't carry and there's not enough
security to make sure you leave and arrive safely. This
is where something like a berner gun comes in. It's
about diversifying your defense weapons array. Bernergun shoots chemical irritant
projectiles that can deter threat from up to fifty feet away. Now,
if you look at regular stun guns, they've got like
what one or two charges, maybe one or two rounds

(15:07):
with the burna cl the compact launcher, which I think
is the one that you need to look at. They
have it as a fifteen round shock capacity, which is
infinitely more when it counts. And the best thing is
there's no background check, no background check, there's no permits,
there's no additional feeds, there's no waiting periods. You can
order it online and it's sent right to your house.

(15:29):
Visit burna dot com slash data and get get your
burn A cl stands for Compact Launcher, Burna cl b
y r NA dot com slash data ready when you are.
Are you guys gonna go see any movies over Christmas break?

Speaker 2 (15:45):
There's a couple of movies that my eye on. Once
Chainsaw Man movie, Oh.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yeah, that's coming out. What about the George Floyd movie.
You know they're making a George Floyd movie. It's in
pre production right now. Oh yeah, you heard that right.
Oprah's involved in it, and so someone called Lil Teca. Okay,
Oprah's in it. She's in the cast. You guys didn't know.

(16:09):
A guy named Gregory Ramon Anderson is writing it and
it's a family authorized biopic of George Floyd, capturing the
life of the men who's become a symbol against police
brutality and racial injustice. Well, it came out later that
he was like, hi is a kite Whitney one of like, uh,

(16:32):
remember Ridney King. Ridny King's apparently high on angel dust
and that's why he was so strong. Apparently George Floyd
was high on something. But I by the way, I
love On IMDb under the trivia, did you see what's
under trivia? It says the star of this movie was
a career criminal, druggy and pregnant woman beater. Like, how

(16:54):
are you going to make a George Floyd movie George
Floyd the musical, Yeah, just do that. It's called Daddy
Change the World. Daddy beat a pregnant woman, Daddy stole,
Daddy was on drugs, Daddy fock cops. The movie is
called Daddy Change the World. It's already gonna be ha
Ino a second. Tell. I mean, you could do something

(17:16):
on the Tuskegee Airman, but Heaven's no, We're not gonna
do that. Let's do it on George Floyd. You can
do a great buyop on Frederick Douglass. You can do
an Oscar level kind of movie with him. Nope, Nope,
gonna be George Floyd. For Krenell Loud, what in the
world is this? I'm sure this is gonna be just
a Stellar film. Cane is it? M Who do you

(17:41):
think they're gonna cast as the woman he beats.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
Mmmm, that's a good question.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
I know, how are they gonna make those bruises? Look, man,
I don't know, just saying to be.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Satisfied and listen, actual victim plays the victim.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
Yeah, I whire. It's just like again Hollywood's celebrated criminality,
armed robbery. He was in jail, in and out, drug possession, counterfeitingies.
Oh yeah, we have the but you know the fact
that he just couldn't go out thugging meant the world
was racist.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
We have his criminal history.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Yeah, but that's racist. What is the Listen to this
NPR from May of this year, who George Floyd was
and how systemic racism shaped his life. I mean, he
only served eight jail terms on tons of violent charges.
He was a prohibited possessor. But whatever racism made him

(18:40):
do all those things.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
He couldn't punch a pregnant.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Woman's Well that's also not apparently, I mean, according to
the works reported not true either. Man, Just saying, yeah,
he was in prison for years, in and out, aggravated robbery,
home invasions. He was a violent criminal, violent criminal, and apparently,

(19:04):
I mean there's yeah, there's a lot.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
Technically he did change the world.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
Then I'm just saying I mean even after I mean
he was still in and out, still in and out
he was. People will say, oh, he was in a
rehabilitation that you have, but he dropped out and went

(19:28):
back on drugs and still committed violent crimes. Why are
we making like movies about this guy? Look, there is
no community black, white, or Asian or Hispanic or whatever
that is so devoid of amazing examples of each respective
community that they have to devolve to lionizing violent criminals.

(19:53):
There's no excuse for it. There's none. There's no excuse
for any of this. That's like ma a movie lionizing
Hunter Biden, except Hunter Biden wasn't as violent as George
Floyd good Night. Well, because Oprah's involved in it, you're
never gonna hear the end of this movie. Because anything

(20:14):
that she's involved, she thinks she's an Oscar level actress.
She thinks that she is like the best, and so
anything that she's involved in you're gonna hear it ad nauseum.
I just can't. But why why are are people doing who?
First off, who sits around and is like I'm gonna
write this, and then who's gonna give money to like
finance it? People who like watching their money burn, like

(20:35):
the communities after George Floyd. Yeah, by the way, how
does that work? Are they gonna how do they do
that on a white I mean, that's gonna be a
lot of Oprah money to have that kind of burning.
You know, if you're gonna be burning neighborhoods to be
more accurate, that's gonna be a ton of Oprah money
to make pull that off. Because CG Flames only looks
so good for so long, you know what I'm saying.
I don't know who's gonna play George Floyd. Ooh, how

(20:57):
about Juicy Somalier. He can make his big comeback in
the George. Who's gonna be who is? Here's the big question.
Who's gonna be cast as Gwen Walls? Are we gonna
get If I do not have a scene of Gwen
Walls opening her bougie window and her bougie mansion and

(21:18):
sniff in the air for the smell of burnt dreams
and burnt communities, then this is an unjust world. We've
got to have that scene. Just watch her like open
up the window and give a big deep sniff.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
We almost need more cartoonish where she you can see
the waft of smoke in the air from the burning tires,
and then like a cartoon you remember whenever the bugs,
bunny or whoever would smell some good food and then
all of a sudden they would be floating with their
nose following.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
Yeah trail like Warner Brothers fa yep.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
Kind of how absurd it has to be.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
Yeah, we need that.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
Mmm.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
Why is the window open, Gwen?

Speaker 4 (21:56):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (21:56):
I love the smell of burnt communities. Hmmm so good.
Let that waft in. Mmm, that smell right there has
a little cinnamon in it. That's the smell of a
family owned business, third generation burning to the ground.

Speaker 4 (22:12):
Mmm.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
That's Gwen Walls. Remember she said that she literally opened
her windows to smell the burning so she could be
in solidarity, which is the most basic white progressive thing
I've ever heard. You have this, dear heavens. Yes, I
would say those first days, you know, when there were riots,
I could smell the burning.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
Tires and.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
Smells good. That was that was a very real thing.
And I kept the windows open for as long as
I could because I felt like that was such a
touchstone of what was what was happening.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
So she stayed hidden in her house. But I cut
the windows open. I mean, I didn't want to go
out there with you know those people that I cut
the windows open. You know, it was a real thing
as opposed to a not real thing like who says
stupid stuff like that. That was a very real thing
as opposed to fake I mean, and I just got
the windows open, and I was like a touch point.

(23:13):
It's like solidarity. Just love the smell of it with
her Chanel flats as she's sitting there in her bougie
deck and Chanel flats. Those are nine hundred and fifty
dollars flats. Goodness. At least Hillary Clinton had the nerve
to wear Tory birch for crying out loud. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
It doesn't keep the window open when tires are burning.

Speaker 1 (23:34):
By the way, someone noted speaking of progressives that love
to live above their pay grade, somebody was talking, hang on,
I gotta pull this up. I think it was Fanny Willis.
And I don't follow all of that drama because it's
just too much to get in the weeds. And I
got enough stuff on my plate with all of this
other But somebody was saying that Fanny Williams when she

(23:54):
appeared in.

Speaker 3 (23:55):
Court Willis or Williams.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Well, willis sorry, Fanny Williams. I was thinking of actually
of Andy Williams, who just played the music that we
came into the thing with Fanny Willis. She hang on,
let me pull this in because I don't know what
kind of bag. I don't even know what kind of
bag it is, but I know it's super fan. Oh
here it is. Okay. So she was testifying before the

(24:17):
Georgia Senate and she had a very bougie bag that
was sitting into a couple of you. Let me pull
this photo up. She had this very bougie bag that
she had just sitting right on the table and a

(24:39):
friend of mine said, oh, my gosh, because I don't
even know what this is and I don't even know
how you can put anything in it. But okay, uh,
she's She was carrying a Louis Vuitton l V fan bag,
which is a spring Summer twenty twenty five runway collector's piece.
My friend looked it up and said, this is pre

(25:00):
tax over ten thousand dollars. It is not vintage. It
is not thrifted, and it is not old. And my
friend said, you can tell because there's no patina on
the leather. The leather, that orange leather is light. She said,
if it's old, it'd be dark. And she goes, they
literally just came out with us. And so she is

(25:20):
under investigation for misusing taxpayer dollars. And here she is
showing up literally with a bag that, after tax is
over eleven thousand dollars. Wow. Also that bag is hideous. Wow.
I am speechless. I am speechless. Isn't she trying to

(25:43):
act like she's poor? Yeah, here's here's the it's coated
canvas with a cowhide leather trim, microfiber lining, gold toned hardware,
and a zip enclosure. It's the LV Fan, a statement
designed that debuted on the spring Summer twenty twenty five runway.
This collector's piece is crafted from the monogram canvas. It

(26:05):
can be one crossbody. Since you're so stupid, you have
to be told how to wear it or carried by hand.
And it's over eleven thousand dollars pre tax. It's ten
thy nine hundred. Wow, I am speechless. That's crazy. So yeah, Democrats.
