Nor is that more truer than itcomes to climate. Every economy around this
table faces this challenge, every oneof us, and as I've said before,
it's the only existential threat to humanity. We either get this right or
there's not gonna be a whole lotof people around to talk about it.
Does his mouth not work? Sure? That's the President saying the weather's gonna

(00:24):
kill us all kill us all dead. Dana Last Year with You, top
of this third hour, I don'tcare about the weather right now. Can
we have a conversation about what thehell is going down at Target? First
off, welcome back to the program, Dana Last Year with You can listen
to Coast to Coast can stream theradio program. You can watch the simulcast
YouTube Facebook channel three forty seven DirectTV. Guys, I haven't been in

(00:47):
a Target, and I don't knowhow long, not just because I just
there's nothing I ever need there.I just don't go there. But what
are they doing? What's happening here? So I saw, how do I

(01:08):
say this? They have gay nutcrackers? Now Steve's response was that was a
Tuesday and it took me a second. Uh, but they have those,
and they have apparently gay Christmas decorations. I mean, how much of an
annoying virtue signaler are you that youhave to put some sort of tangible representation

(01:32):
of how you get it on onyour tree. Well, I wouldn't have
known how you had sex if youdidn't have a gay Santa ornament on your
tree, I mean, or thegay nutcracker. Wow, I wouldn't know
that you how you like to havesex if you didn't have a gay nutcracker?
Why why does everything have to justthey do? They have these?

(01:57):
I mean, it's the most itis a joke by itself. This was
not done to be humorous. Theydid this on purpose, like accidentally,
on purpose, So they have these. My and for the people on the
left who read with pictures, whatwe're making fun of is the fact that

(02:17):
they feel the need to seek validationin Christmas ornaments. I love to celebrate
birthma Savior by declarin how I haveto sex? So basically you're celebrating the
birth of a savior with fornication.That's essentially what I am to understand out
of this. That's correct, Kane, Right, Yeah, celebrating holiness with

(02:42):
fornications like scrin for chastity guys.Doesn't make any sense, But I digress.
Do you constantly have to tell peoplewho you are all the time?
With everything? What is the pointof this? Does your blood type change?
Do you have purple blood? Now? Does something in your does something
in you change because of your preferencesin a private activity? Why do you

(03:08):
have to have this all the timeeverywhere you The regular nutcracker wasn't good enough,
the regular Santa wasn't good enough.You couldn't just have regular ornaments.
You gotta have gay ornaments. Yeah, I don't. I guess they put
rainbows on it. They're like,look, todah, no, it's gay.
I don't know. I don't know. They also, I don't know

(03:30):
how to address this one because it'sso over the time. We're making fun
of it, and there's a differencebetween making fun of something and criticizing it.
We just think it's ridiculously hysterical,no pun intended, it is hysterical.
I mean, I just don't understandwhy. And I was looking on
that. They literally have a wholecategory of alphabet. They have alphabet Christmas

(03:53):
decorations, they have alphabet Christmas deals. LGBT, they don't have any cue
on their riot. I mean,I don't understand those. Why why does

(04:15):
it I don't understand of what ofthe gay community. So you're telling me
that unless Santa is decked out likeLiberachi in rainbows, that he's hostile.
I don't know about that. Isthat what the claim is? I don't
know. I just if I wassaying it ain't nobody'd be getting crapped this
year except dictionaries and bibles because alot of people need it. Are they

(04:40):
saying that regular ornaments are hostile?Apparently they needed special gay ones they didn't
feel represented. You know, thereindeer with the red nose wasn't represented of
how you know? Oh man,h help me out here. If Rudolph

(05:03):
changed his gender, he could dominateall the female reindeer games, right exactly.
I just I mean, when Iget our Christmas ornaments I have,
like we have. My mom isone of those people who's like, you
don't put ornaments on the train lestit's like a keepsack. And I'm like,
all right, so all of ours, you know, mean something that

(05:23):
the kids made them, or itwas from when we were kids, something
like that, And I just can't, you know, I was looking at
like a Santa. He was usedto being felt, but over the years
it just kind of worn off.But I just can't imagine looking at that
and being thinking and going, youknow, quietly whispering, why do you
hate gay people? To my Santaornament? You know, I'd put these

(05:45):
ornaments up, but I think theyhate the Kays, so they have a
whole rainbow section. But not tobe outdone, because you know, what's
Christmas without exuberant virtue signaling from everysingle aspect of humanity. There's a Santa
on wheels. I don't care.I just think like, why was this

(06:06):
necessary before? Did it really everbother anybody before that? There wasn't a
Santa in a wheelchair? No,it would make the story of him coming
down the chimney a lot less believable, That's what I'm saying, Can we

(06:28):
not? This is your fault?Oh my gosh, I just I don't
understand why the need to go thathardcore? Right? Do you see me
out there like, where's Mosana withguns? I gotta have Mosna with guns
all over eod at. You youknow, I I'm not. I'm not

(06:48):
out there demanding that, right,I'm not where. I'm not asking,
you know, for like a deadreindeer has slung over his shoulder and a
hunting rifle over the other. I'mnot I don't insist on a Mexican santa.
Yeah, you don't have a sombrerosanta. That's right, damn that

(07:13):
they hate you. There's if it'snot on the shelf, they hate you.
That's what It's oppression, that's whatit is. Yeah, it's actual
oppression, slavery actually because you don'thave a sombrero Hitlerism completely. I just
I just why the constant, neverending versus it's so cringe stop it.

(07:34):
You don't have to have rainbow everything. You don't have to have I mean
it just because it seems contrived andit and it seems like it's put on.
I mean, you're making cheap crapin China and slapping rainbows on it,
you know where they would kill youfor being gay, and and they're
acting like that's like somehow supportive ofthe alphabet community. I mean, the

(07:56):
irony is so insane, and thereare people her just like, oh yeah,
I love that. So I'm gonnaget my gay ornaments. Get my
gay ornaments at the targets. Idon't know it. I'm telling you what
sand is just bringing everybody Bibles anddictionaries. It's all anybody gets. This
year, Martha Stewart says she's notdoing turkey. She said she's turkeyed out.

(08:24):
She says that she's sick of cooking. She's done. She'd made fourteen
turkeys already for a TV show thisyear. She says she's turkeyed out.
No arrest her, throw her back, and throw her back in jail.
In my administration, i'd arrest herfor throwing for being turkeyed out. You
don't get to be turkeyed out inAmerica. By the way, your friendly

(08:46):
reminder to put your turkey in yourfridge, You're welcome. Yeah, your
frozen turkey. Put it in yourfridge. So I have some other serious
news too, But I'm just Iwas completely distracted by the uh, the
gay ornaments. Oh, and thenof course you have the stories that are
like there's backlash from people about thegat ornaments. Do you think people are

(09:07):
getting boycott fatigue? I hope.I mean I don't necessarily boycott. I
just don't want to be somewhere that'scringe in the event that it's catching.
You know, I just don't gothere just because it's gross or it's cringe
or something. But I just do. I do wonder if people are getting

(09:28):
boycott burnout, which you can't really, but you know, for I mean,
for this stuff, I just itdoesn't. It doesn't. It doesn't
make any sense. It doesn't makeany sense to me. But the stories
that have been written on this are, Oh, people are bad. There's
backlash. It's not backlash. Peopleare making fun of it. The left
can't even you. If you can'tmake fun of yourself for this, then

(09:52):
you're truly a shell of a humanbecause it is hysterical. All the the
to have a whole section of gayor ornaments is just hysterical. It is
the most commercial thing I could everthink of. It is hysterical, and
you should be laughing about it becauseit's funny. But they're like, there's
backlash. No, We're like Targetreally is having one. They really outdid

(10:18):
themselves this year. That's what theresponse has been. Good grief. There's
so many jokes to be made here, particularly with the nutcrackers, but I
digress. The speaking of band,all the things so pink are you've never
seen pink and eddios are in thesame room. I'm not going to be
too ignorant because her husband's a bigtwo A guy and that's cool. But

(10:41):
I don't understand the band book thing. She's like, I'm getting around the
band books. She says she's givingaway band books. And she's got a
couple of shows in Florida and shesaid that she's going to be giving away
band books. How are you givingthem away in Florida if they're banned.
I mean, if they're banned,that means you can't even give them away.

(11:05):
How are you getting Oh, youmean it's because they're not banned.
I mean it's crazy to think that. You know, it's bad for parents
to just want to know if you'reshowing their third grader a graphic novel of
prepubescent teenage boys pegging each other.Oh, I said it. Hey,

(11:28):
if that makes people uncomfortable me sayingthat on air, it should make you
super uncomfortable that it was available forelementary kids to read and junior high.
Yeah, it should make you superuncomfortable. If it's not appropriate for me
to talk about it on air,it should make you super uncomfortable. That
legit kids in classrooms. I knowactual parents, like in real space,

(11:50):
off air, offline, whose kidsliterally pulled that off of bookshelves in Texas,
one school down the street from whereI am. No joke. I
actually saw the book in person,with the library sticker on it and everything,
So that happened. That wasn't justlike that wasn't anecdotal. That happened.
I had the book in my hand. I'm like, oh my gosh,

(12:11):
and they had the checkout thing andlie everything, the digital scan thing
on the book, everything, becauseit was in the library. So that's
one of the books on the listthat she wants to give out. Would
she let her kids read that?Carry us? Would she let her kids
read that? Because I seriously doubtshe would. I doubt her husband would.
But I just think this is stuffthat you should know. If you're

(12:33):
going to throw yourself all thirsty likeseeking fame into the debate, you should
know that this is what is inthe book. It's not people aren't banning
them. This isn't like what theleft was doing to Huckleberry Finn by the
way, they actually banned that book. That book. You could not you
can't, you can't get in theThey banned it in a number of schools,
like actually prohibited it. This wasn'twe need to have parental consent because

(12:56):
of an appropriateness for age. Thiswas get it out of there entirely.
This parents didn't even say ban them, They said can we can we actually
have a discussion about what we're allowingour kids to read and what you're introducing
in the classroom for kids to readbefore you introduce it to them. For
crying out loud. When I wasa kid, my mom had to sign

(13:18):
at some point, I think Iwas in like six or seventh grade.
At some point I had to takea permission slip home for my mom to
sign for her to say it wasokay for us to sing Christmas carols in
school. She had to sign athing saying that it was okay for me
to sing songs of a religious naturein school. She actually had to sign
that. But this stuff you canjust show to kids. I mean,

(13:41):
we were literally singing like a wayin a manger for crying out loud,
and she had to sign off onthat. But this kind of stuff,
that's why I think it's all allthese people like Pink and everybody else.
This is so performative. They're notbanned. I mean, you're what you're
railing against is parental consent. AndI thought that consent was something that the
Left light. You know, theyreally don't And now all of the news

(14:03):
you would probably miss. It's timefor Dana's Quick five. So Nepal bands
TikTok, citing disruption to its socialharmony. In a piece out from the
VBC, they say that Nepal's bannedthe Chinese own app because its content was
detrimental to social harmony. They're prettyhardcore about that stuff. The decision comes
days after they introduced a new rulerequiring social media firms to set up liaison

(14:26):
offices within the country, and Indiais also banned TikTok. They have about
a billion monthly users for the appin total. Montana's the first state to
ban it. UK banned it fromits network earlier this year. Also farms
that are they're looking for pumpkins afterHalloween for animals, for animals to eat
because they love them. And Ican attest to this because I have a

(14:48):
friend whoays goats down in Colorado andshe got a whole bunch of pumpkins that
a store gave her after Halloween.And the goats won't crazy for them.
They're just like the stuff that's notthe freshest, and but goats and pigs
all kinds of stuff. If youhave undecorated pumpkins, everyone's like, don't
throw them out because a lot offarms would love the pumpkins is a treat
for their animals. And that's whatthey're telling everybody, like pigs love it,

(15:09):
goats love it. Everybody loves it. And they said that the animals
know that it's a special treat andit's like candy for them. And it's
a way to get rid of yourold pumpkins without, you know, just
throwing them away, because otherwise they'dhave to they would, you know,
they don't they don't get them becausethey'd have to buy them. And that's
can be a lot for those animals. A Springfield man is charged for kidnapping
a woman at chainsaw point and theOzark Springfield, Missouri. Charges were filed

(15:33):
against a Manifred allegedly kidnapped a womanat chainsaw point like by chainsaw. Roy
Flores is charged with kidnapping, firstfirst degree, burglary, and unlawful use
of a weapon. They say theincident happened earlier this spring, and he
would force his way into a homewith a chainsaw, kidnapped her, also
throwing to burn the house down.Jus a chainsaw. We have a lot

(15:54):
more on the way stick with us. I'm not going to be endorsing President
Trump, obviously, I've made thatvery clear. Look, Chris Christy has
done a terrific job so far.I think his being in the race is
kept Donald Trump from coming to thedebates because I think Donald Trump recognized if

(16:15):
he went to the debate with ChrisChristy, Chris Christie would reveal him for
what he was and Trump would bebadly hurt. So we stayed out.
But Nikki Hayley, she's rising rightnow. I think she's the only one
that has a shot becoming the nomineeother than President Trump. It's a long
shot in her part, but she'sthe one that has a shot. He
really doesn't like jasantas he hates theSanta Smitt Romney. Keep in mind,

(16:38):
Desanta's was one of the House FreedomCaucus guys who came out of the Tea
Party and he went against Bayner andall those guys and moved Mitt Romney was
running in twenty twelve because I wasright there in all of it. He
was highly critical of all that stuff, and he never never created a good
relationship between himself and those cats.So yeah, that man, that man

(17:02):
keeps a grudge. That man holdsa grudge. Welcome back to the program,
Dana Lash here with you bottom ofthis first hour. He's also wrong,
but there's a system in play.I want to be really honest with
you about the Iowa polls because there'san NBC poll that came out. Now,
maybe you'll like what I say.Maybe you're not gonna like what I
say. I'm going to tell youwhat it is, what I think.

(17:22):
I'm gonna give you insight, notopinion on this kind of stuff. Because
my dream I want to win intwenty twenty four. I will, literally
I will. I will. Idon't know, I will riot, I
don't know. I want to winbadly in twenty twenty four, to the
point where people who are being stupidand like the leadership of the R and

(17:45):
C and create a very frustrating obstacle. You know, I feel like that's
that's exactly what it is. It'san obstacle. I have issues with that,
and I think we really that's somethingwe got to deep dive on coming
up at some point. But Iwant to win in twenty twenty four and
I am very, very concerned becauseI feel like a lot of people are
being baited and played. They're beingbaited and played hardcore. Now, this

(18:10):
new poll that came out, Iwas looking at it. Let me let
me just tell you so Iowa,if you don't understand, let me lay
it. Lay it down. Youhave early states that have their primaries and
caucuses, right, and those statesultimately determine after a candidate goes through that
rush right after they rush those earlystates. After that, then you kind
of have, you know, atleast a front runner for the nomination for

(18:37):
candidacy. And that's why I alwayssay it's a delegate race in the very
beginning, and that's all they're focusedon. And Iowa is the first state.
Now, people who win the Iowacaucus don't always necessarily go on to
win the presidents. I mean,for crying o allowd Ted Cruz has won
the Iowa caucus before. I mean, there's a long there's a there's a

(18:57):
lot of examples of people winning thecaut but yet not not winning the presidency.
This election is a little different,and I think because everything that I
think, it's there's a lot ofdynamics that have changed. One thing that
hasn't changed is the sucky state ofpolling. One thing that you have to

(19:17):
realize excuse me, and this isperhaps one of the most important things to
recognize in politics right now, isthat polling is an industry. Much like
you have lobbying as an industry.Polling is in itself very similar. It
is its own industry. There aretoo few very scientifically based polling firms,

(19:41):
and then when you even look ataggregates, a lot of the aggregation will
exclude like state polls or this typeof poll or that poll, and they
all have their own certain rules forinclusion. Everyone is competing to be kind
of like the standard, right,the gold standard. Everybody competes, but
there isn't really a firm that isthe gold standard. That's why they're so

(20:03):
completely unreliable. You can have candidatesthat hire firms to do surveys and then
they will use that as a wayto set narratives, and the media loves
to cite, well, this surveysays, well, this survey says.
They like to cite it like it'sjust absolutely unquestionable scientific data, and that's
not the case. The polls werewrong. I mean, the polls were

(20:26):
wrong in twenty sixteen. That's whereyou got the whole silent majority that came
out of that. The polls werewrong in twenty sixteen, guys. The
polls were wrong in twenty eighteen.Guys. The polls were wrong in twenty
twenty. Guys. The polls werewrong in twenty twenty two. Guys.
At what point when the hell didwe start believing in polls When there were

(20:51):
a few poles that were correct goinginto twenty twenty that didn't show a red
wave and they were smaller, theywere from less owned firms, and they
didn't get a lot of attention,and they had small sample sizes, And
I get it, it's a littletough to do that. You also have
to there there was this big narrativeof red wave in twenty twenty that did

(21:11):
not manifest. And then you alsohad this problem of split ticket voting that
was developing beginning in twenty eighteen andthen really exploded in twenty twenty. That
Republicans don't know how to deal withthey don't talk to their voters about And
because Republicans, the Republican Party doesn'tknow how to deal with it and they
don't talk to their voters about it, they encourage the voters to accept that

(21:33):
the presence of split ticket voting andthe inability to explain the results of that
somehow means the existence of absolute,undeniable fraud to the point where it can
change the outcome of an election.Now there's it is a real thing,
and it's something that the RNC isgarbage at dealing with, and they've had

(21:56):
since twenty eighteen to deal with us. Now, split ticket voting is when
like in Texas, we this justchanged in Texas, like we used to
have one ticket. No, wedon't have that anymore. That was a
court battle in Texas. That's changed. I noted that back in twenty twenty.
And this is kind of a resultof that. You don't have any

(22:17):
straight ticket voting in Texas anymore.And after you eliminated straight ticket voting in
Texas in twenty twenty, you endedup having John Cornyn Senator who got more
votes than Donald Trump in Texas andTexas is considered a red state. Correct.
I live in the most conservative districtin the state, and I was

(22:42):
looking at actual hard data. Iwas getting numbers from the Secretary of State's
website. I was talking to independentpollsters, people who were working elections,
all this stuff, and a lotof people say, well, it's fraud,
it's fraud. It's fraud. Nowthere is fraud, don't get me

(23:07):
wrong. The question has always beenis it enough to change the outcome of
a very decentralized election designed specifically toprevent that kind of outcome. And in
Texas, the result of John Cornyan, who is a very moderate Republican,
getting more votes than Donald Trump,is a result of split ticket voting,
not fraud. That's only part ofthe reason. The second part is voter

(23:33):
turnout. Republicans are their own worstenemies when it comes to voting. There
are more Republicans than there are Democratsin a number of different states, like
in Georgia. The reason we lostthat special election and the Senate is because
Republicans didn't show up. Now,I know the unpopular thing that politicians are

(23:55):
told never do this, Never blamethe voters, never talk about the voters.
To be We're all to be treatedlike precious little babies, right,
Well, we're not precious, andyou have to take accountability for the future
of your own country. I literallyknow people I have family in Georgia that
didn't vote. I found that outquite by accident. I was like,

(24:17):
what you're you're a registered Republican.There were a lot of Republicans that didn't,
like a million of them, therewere a lot. Republicans are their
own worst enemy when it comes tovoting. The turnout. If even seventy
five percent of the Republicans turned outto vote every election, the turnout would
be such that it would overwhelm anykind of decentralized Shenanigans. But we're not

(24:38):
seeing that. That's not the casenow. In Texas, like I said,
you had split ticket voting. Youhad people who voted Republican down ticket,
but at the top they either didn'tvote, they voted for somebody else,
so they did a write in.That's what happened in Texas with Trump
is that split ticket voting the RepublicanParty again, this is what we saw

(25:00):
all this coming up in twenty eighteenin a number of different states, and
the Republican Party had no answer forit. They still have no answer for
it. How do you deal withthat? And then secondly, it causes
people to have a conversation that theydo not want to have why did people
vote that way? Now, ifyou even engage in this conversation, political

(25:21):
operatives have trained you to think thatthat is a betrayal and their political operatives
on the right, and the reasonI'm calling it out is because I view
them as an obstruction to victory intwenty twenty four when you as a party
cannot sit down without emotions like theleft and have an honest conversation about why
you're trailing here, or why splitticket voting is suddenly a major issue for

(25:44):
your party, or why we're havingthese issues, How can we strengthen our
soft spots, how can we hardenthose and how can we clear a path
of victory? When your party istoo afraid to have that conversation because they
don't want to tick off other peoplein the party, that is a problem
that is a bigger threat to victoryin twenty twenty four than Democrats. The

(26:07):
Republican Party is scared of its owndamn shadow, and that is more powerful
than anything that the Democrats could do. You have the RNC leader who doesn't
want to do anything because the RNCleader got their job because of a politician,
so you can't They can't be honestabout it. I want to win

(26:27):
in twenty four, and I don'tgive a hot damn with whom I have
my preference in the primary. Iwill not apologize for being an American and
living in a country where we havea republic style election system that uses a
democratic process and we enjoy freedoms thatpeople have fought and died for. I
will never apologize for that. Wedon't live in a monarchy. We have

(26:51):
a republic. But I want towin in twenty four. But I also
want to do everything I can inthe meantime to make sure that it is
an absolutely rock solid ticket in twentytwenty four. And this is where we're

(27:11):
getting into the polling. In twentytwenty two. The red wave never materialized
Virginia. Remember how I said afew weeks ago the election of Virginia was
a bellweather. Everyone thought that Republicanswere going to take the Delegate House of
Delegates, and they were going totake the Senate. And you had Younkin
as a governor, and I'd saidthat, well, Republicans really, if

(27:34):
you look at the polling, theyhad actually overperformed in the previous election due
to COVID and a lot of thestuff in the schools, because that was
one of the ground zero places,and that the way that the election happened
recently is a little bit more intune with the voter makeup there. And

(27:56):
then also you had redistricting which reallydidn't go into republicans favor. Said Virginia
was a bellweather. You had acouple of other elections where it was thought
that Republicans were going to perform welland they underperformed. The Republican Party is
leading you wrong, and they're afraidto say anything because they don't want to

(28:18):
make candidates mad. They don't wantto make the former president mad, they
don't want to make Republican operatives mad. Because it's become a popularity contest instead
of a party of leadership. Youhave more people who I mean, I'm
I don't dislike Ronney McDaniel. Idon't I've met her in person, but
this is about the business of thecountry. So my saying is that this
is show business, not show friendsand the business of the country is telling

(28:42):
me right now that RNC leadership isfailing, and no one is willing to
stand up and say, okay,knock this stuff off. Can I do
a case in point. You're gonnaget mad at me, but I gotta
say it. I saw a tweet. It was something that the President had
put out and he had said thatI thought I thought it was kind of

(29:06):
interesting because he was kind of goingafter I guess Cruse and Holly, Josh
Holly, and Missouri saying that,oh, their primaries could get very,
very interesting. It's what he hadposted on his platform. And then there's
an account on Twitter or x thatreposts that stuff that Trump posts on his
platform. Basically, it's Trumps saberrattling. He's mad that he doesn't have

(29:26):
an endorsement from Ted Cruise or JoshHolly. Yet. I don't think that
you can threaten a Republican candidate ina primary in a state that you lost
the most conservative district by two thousandvotes. Ted Cruz lost the district I
live in, lost the county Ilive in by two thousand votes to Beta

(29:48):
Warwarke. It was the It's themost conservative county in the state and Ted
Cruz lost it. The problem isbigger than that. And I don't think
that Trump can threatened primaries against Senatecandidates or senators for not endorsing him if
he couldn't even carry the state againstJohn Cornyn. I'm saying that to say

(30:11):
in twenty twenty four, I wantto win, and I don't want candidates
making mistakes for themselves. I don'twant them making I don't want them making
problems for themselves that they're going tohave difficulty in getting over later. I
don't give a hot damn about someone'sego. I don't care about kissing their
butt. I want to win intwenty twenty four because I firmly believe that
this is it. I'm not sayingthat for radio. I'm not saying that

(30:33):
for clicks that this is it.Guys, you will never be able to
claw back. The country will beirrevocably changed. Freedom once lost is lost
forever. We have a lot moreon the polling of this, and a
lot more to come, but I'mtelling you people got to get over the
emotions of this. If you wantto win in twenty four, we have

(30:55):
to have serious conversations, and wegot to be generals, not soap opera
stars like SAMs through the hour glass. So are the days of the United
States, And all the studies showby the way you get from people get
from point A to point B fasteron a train than their car. They

(31:15):
take the train. They take thetrain. People get from point A to
point B faster on a train thantheir car. They take the train.
Yes, what, yeah, mhmm, there's a lot here. This

(31:36):
is when he was in This iswhen he was in Vegas pitching his billions
of dollars for the rail system.Yeah, go ahead, we're you're just
dying over there. He has awe know now he's trouble with numbers,
and can we hear the numbers again? Sure? Are we sure? Is

(31:57):
it just is it just such alarge number that it's difficult for us to
it is a super go ahead,go ahead play plate that number of the
game four years is gonna struck yourweek over a billion, three million dollars.
Was he trying to be funny ordid he just like no, did
he short circuit or he just isn'tvery right? I don't know, man.

(32:23):
It gives you all the confidence inthe world, doesn't it all?
The confidence in the world. Yeah, he's just a he's just a puppet,
all right. So coming up inour second hour, we got a
lot of stuff to hit still becausewe're getting you set up this week on
deck the uh latest, We've gotthe latest with Israel and how Hamas is

(32:44):
threatening to execute hostages and a tonof different college or university presidents are stepping

conversation on polling. So we wereestablishing some things. Just like segment,
we got some new stuff to hitregarding pulling Iowa the primary in twenty twenty

(33:06):
four. Stick with us a lotmore on the way. That's the folks
at Toyota, which last week announcedit would significantly, finally increase wages for
their workers. Thanks for you hadno choice. They they had no choice
because what you did you helped everybody. And look and I want to thank
you for your commitment to the solidarity, for exercise your right to bargain.

(33:29):
Collectively, you made this happen andnobody found the way. It's a bigger
thing. I think even you allrealize you've changed your change in the face
of the country. Guy. Itgoes thanks. Oh my gosh, God
bless America. That's Potus. Welcomeback. I'm in a weird mood,

(33:50):
dude, Top of the top ofthe second hour. On this Friday,
a get another day that Kane hasgotten Warhammer to squad up Top of the
second hour. It's all right,sorry, yeah, we're going to fight
about it today. We're gonna fightabout it. So get ready, go
ahead and get ready, get yourlittle team ready. You can sit here
talk to me about your little rocketleague, and then we're gonna talk about
Warhammer Dark and we're gonna just haveit. We're gonna have the fight.

(34:10):
Sorry. Sorry, welcome Top ofthe second hour. Daniel Ash with you.
You can listen Coast to Coast.You can stream the radio program three
three forty seven direc TV also andall kinds of good stuff. So well,
I really want to get I needthis one. So this is the

(34:34):
one that you just put in slack, and this is somebody that it's our
vice president. You put this inslack. Vice president was talking to the
pipe fitters Local Fight thirty seven,right, and she was explaining collective bargaining

(35:01):
to them. She was explaining themto them, right, that's the best
way to put it. Yeah,okay, go ahead, go and listen.
This is think of the dressing forthe word salad. Go ahead.
So, collective bargaining is about saying, let the workers have a voice as

(35:22):
a collective, all together, representingeach one of them as a group,
and then go into that negotiation becausethen you start to equal out the balance
in terms of power in a waythat the outcome will be fair. That's
what collective bargaining is about. That'swhat work or organizing is about. This

(35:43):
is one of my favorite comments I'veever read in my life. She should
have never have quit her job atThesaurus factory, so profound. I'm so
happy that she explained such a complexword, Caine meaning it's not that simple.
So, you know, collective bargainingis about, you know, people

(36:07):
doing things together collectively as a collective, collecting their same positions to negotiate,
you know, for a deal,a bargain collectively altogether as a group.

(36:29):
She loves the Venn diagrams that onelike you would think that she would be
right, like, what is goingon, the fact that they don't do
they don't make fun of her,They're not about comedy. I think your
humor sucks when you just can't takethe obvious, Like, even if I
agree with you, if you dosomething goofy and stupid, I'm gonna make

(36:49):
fun of you because I am anequal opportunity ridicular and I don't respect people
who are not. So if Iif I do something dumb and you don't
make fun of me, we can'tbe friends. If you do something dumb
and you don't like it, ifI make fun of you for doing it,
then we can't be friends because theirlife is too short not to laugh
at other people. That's just allthere is to it. Like Caine not

(37:12):
wanting to play Warhammer, for instance, we're having this. This is an
ongoing fight that we're having. Describingit as I don't want to and that's
not even destiny. You haven't.No, that's accurate. So it is
so you you. Is it indicativeof you not wanting to or you just
were wanting to but just not havingthe time because you're so busy with Rocket
League? Yeah? No, Iwish I was more busy with Rocket League.

(37:36):
I only get a chance to play, you know, rock League with
my son over in Illinois once maybeevery ten days or so, it's not
very much, see it. Youplay Rocky League with him, But then
when you're not playing with him,you could squad up, right, I'm
just saying I could. Probably,I'll have to carve out some time,
throw it in the calendar. Ican do it. See, I could
make it happen. We could havelike a whole team squad dude, a

(38:00):
whole day al radio. And thenwe'll get one into it, right yeah,
yeah yeah. And then Steve islike, I don't even know,
does Steve? You don't play reallyright here? He's like the only millennial
who's not really into games, right, Oh that I know. I mean
I said this before. I grewup in a house full of women.
So video there's no video games inmy house. Grown up. Be a
nerd for one, damn it.Come on, nerd out with us.

(38:22):
I nerd out on all other things. It's not video games. He's like
so straight laced, He's just like, yes, well, uh but no,
I think that's one of the it'sa it's a great So I'm gonna
keep bringing that up constantly until Ibreak you, just because it's great fun.
It's great fun. Kane. Youget you get to go at zombies

(38:42):
and you can crush them into meatpulps. That's what I'll do for you.
Collectively, you know, together asa collective. You mean that's a
group as a group all together,you know, a collective. That's the
way it is. And then wecan bargain about what level of mallins we
would like to play. You know, I'm glad you cleared the because I
thought collective bargaining was you like collectingbargains, that's you know. Actually,

(39:05):
I'm so glad that you brought thatup because you know, for instance,
so my stepdad, right is thecoupon king. So I don't know how
it works in some people's homes,but in the home in which I grew
up, first it was me andmy mom for a long time, and
then when my mom and my stepdadgot together, he is like very good
at couponing and finding the coupons andsaving the coupons, and he would keep

(39:29):
them all organized in a letter organizedthat he hung on the back of the
pantry door, little paintry door outin the kitchen, and all the different
coupons. And when he makes agrocery list, parts of the paper there's
a there's invisible borders, and you'renot allowed to put any non dairy item
in the dairy section that is notat all marked on the grocery list.
It's just not at all marked,and it's it's just you know, he

(39:52):
he writes it out how he goesinto the aisles, and he will not
he would not allow my mother togo to the grocery store because he's like,
she gets distracted and picks up otherthings, and so he's like,
you don't get to go, andso like normally it's just like the thermostat
is like the territory, right,the dad's like they take over. No,
And this house was also the grocerystore shopping, so you had to

(40:14):
have a coupon to get it.If you wanted it, there better be
a coupon or you ain't getting it. You know, a quick question,
Uh huh, coupon or coupon?He says, coupon. Who am I
to argue? I have two?My mom says coupon And he's like that's
is there a singular way that's correct? I don't know. I'm not going
to fight with him about it.You're everybody else is welcome to take up

(40:35):
the issue with Papa. But uhyeah, it's not going to be me.
Just call him paper bargains, paperbargains, that's we're collecting collectively.
But no, he would that's whathe do. He would collect the bargains,
he would collect the coupons, andhe would you can't you know,
Like I remember one time I wantedcap'n Crunch and I heaven forbid, I
put it in the meat section andhe's like, Jesser gott to get a

(40:58):
whole new piece of paper. Now, No, he got the white out
and he would wipe it out.It was a notebook paper, dude,
it was like college ruled notebook paper. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's
got no one got a white it'sgot to be perfect, no scratching out.
Because this kid's confusing and slopping,and he doesn't like the sloppiness and
confusion. Right, My kids thinkhe can do no wrong because he's forklift
certified. I don't know. Hehe operates a forklift and then he got

(41:22):
bored in retirement and then wanted togo back to drive more forklifts, So
I don't know, but he islike, no, no, this is
not how this works. You cannotput the cereal where the meat goes like,
okay, oh, well, justcan we get it? Is there
a coupon for it? Is therea coupon for the cap'n Crunch? I
did not have a coupon for thecap'n Crunch at that particular time, So
Dana did not get the cap'n Crunch. Now, when he did find the

(41:44):
cap'n Crunch later with the crunch berries, he had a coupon for it,
and that was a nice surprise.But that's the house I grew up in.
It didn't exist on the store shelves. He would say, the stores
out of it if there wasn't acoupon for it. And I know these
were lies, and he's like that, no, no, store didn't have
anythim Like, you're serious, thestore didn't have it, I cap'n Crunch,
that's a lie. We know thisas lies. You just didn't have
a coupon. Not the same thing. But he was a collector of bargains,

(42:09):
and he was in the Union,but he was a collector of bargains.
You could say, like Kamala Harriswas explaining, Bright, just go
out and collect bargains. I loveit. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
he's got the coupons, all right, So this couple of other things here,
do we want more stupid Yeah,let's do more stupid audio sound by

(42:31):
seventeen. This chick, this isthe message of Republicans in twenty twenty four.
Control women's bodies and bomb stuff.They have no other governing philosophy.
That's just it. That's it.That's right, that's what we want to
do. We're gonna control your bodiesand bomb the hell out of stuff.

(42:52):
Vote for us controlling bomb man alive. That's like her analysis is what you
get from that one drunk friend atthe end of the night as the party
wanes and everyone else goes home andthe lights come up, there's no more
alcohol, And it's that one drunkfriend who has had enough liquid courage where

(43:15):
they think they're an expert in allthings political and they will not shut up.
That is that's joy reads a levelof political analysis. All these Republicans
they just want to get out thereand control women's bodies. Like how what
do you mean they want control abortions? What? Like? They act like

(43:36):
Republicans are making women go out thereand pro create like bunnies and then telling
them nope, I got it.No one need no portions for you.
No, we can't do this group, and we're making you do it.
And we're making no one's making himdoing nothing. We're just saying, you
know, be responsible. They don'thave to kill nobody. It's a former
birth control, that's all. That'sall people are saying. And bombing,
what do you mean bombing? Democratswere the ones who were wanted to get

(43:57):
us involved in every damn thing fromHillary Clinton to to the Muslim Brotherhood in
Egypt, going down to Venezuela,going down to I mean, good heavens.
They wanted to get us involved ineverything every South American election. I
use it in her quotes, uhgood everything. I think the new neo
concert Democrats. So what is shetalking about? She just says stuff to

(44:22):
say it control women's bodies. IfI could control your bodies, I would
shut you up. If I actuallycould control bodies, you wouldn't be talking
because I would have shut up yourmouth. That's what would have happened.
They give me way think it wasway more power than we have. You
know what, actually, maybe thatshould be the motto. I want to
control your bodies so I can shutyou the hell up. Vote for me.

(44:45):
I actually think that that's a winningslogan, right, maybe not?
You disagree. Yeah, I thinkit's a great slogan. Vote for me
and I'll shut them all up.Love that. Okay, where do I
sign? Where do I vote?Where can I vote? Illegally? Even
ma can happen? And now allof the news you would probably miss,
it's time for Dana's Quick five.I got to immediately start with Pumpkin the

(45:08):
bear, Hanson, I don't knowwhere this is. Hansen Police w Beasley
News say that Pumpkin the bear isgonna have to be euthanized after killing a
goat? Is that not what bearsdo? I mean? It's a bear.
Bears killed goats? Right? Theysaid the black bear has gotten a

(45:30):
taste for livestock killed a goat insideof bar on Wednesday nights, the second
time Pumpkin has attacked livestock, saidpolice. Although the owners had an electric
fence and reinforced barn doors. See, if you have to put down the
bear, then why the hell doI got to carry bear spray? If
I'm going into it like Yosemite andI'm going into a park. Thank you,
thank you, Just saying the beargot his nickname in September after he

(45:51):
was seen snacking on a pumpkin ina residence yard. He's a big,
giant black bear, they said.Unfortunately, he's becoming too comfortable in the
area. It's not his fault,and he's found too many food sources.
He's gonna have to be euthanized.You people are morons. You are the
dumbest people. You don't have toeuthanize the damn bear. Put him at
you know what, like put himin a zoo. Put him in a
zoo, or like a nature reserve, or relocat him or something like that.

(46:15):
You don't got to kill him.He's a big, fit black bear.
Yes, he killed a goat becausethat's what bears eat. Could have
ving bear's food around him. I'mjoking about that last part. But flexible
work hours can make your heart tenyears younger. That doesn't make any sense
to me. What I think,I don't know. I think this is
weird. They said that flexible hoursmay reduce the risk of heart disease.

(46:36):
I think that this has to dowith like habits and patterns and behaviors,
less so with us. Don't youthink so because nobody's stopping you from getting
up and taking a little walk aroundthe aist and nobody' stopping you from do
that. I don't know. Someof these studies are weird. I exploding
marijuana infused cider drinks were recalled inMichigan. It's called I'm looking. I'm

(47:05):
really confused by this whole drink becauseit sounds horrible. The cana is called
Armada. It's Armada Cannabis Company,Cannabis Apple Sider. You don't have to
put cannabis on everything, just likeyou don't have to put pumpkin spice in
everything. Right, you don't needpumpkin spice tires, your fridge doesn't need
Wi Fi. You don't need cannabisand everything. Fifteen thousand cans of marijuana

(47:27):
infuse cider drinks that, honestly,that sounds horrible. Ciders should be not
with that flavor in it. Theysaid it's a single batch of Armada Cannabis
Apple Sider. They said they've beenswelling and bursting. They said they've received
the reports have been from retailers,not from actual consumers. The cans in
question lists January TEWOD as an expirationdate. Like, you do not have

(47:51):
to put cannabis in every single thing. I think people are going overboard with
that, like the pumpkin spice stuff. I really do. I think that's
just like way, there's way toomuch. Stop it. You don't need
to do all that. Let's seethis. The nation is at risk of
winter blackouts as the power grid remainsuncertain or remains understrained. Yeah, it
does remain understrained. This is wayyou need to get a generator. Yeah,

(48:14):
let's have more evs. A cruiserobo taxi dragged a pedestrian in San
Francisco. Yeah, see in SanFrancisco, the cars drag you. It's
that one of the driverless cars.The vehicle software mischaracterized where the robotaxi initially
struck the woman, leading it tomake the wrong decision. I won't even

(48:34):
have a damn room book. Iwould never get it. I would never
do this. Never stick with us. We get a lot more in store,
so you know how we roll hereon the Danish show. I don't
know how long we can let theillustrious Donny Hathaway play without getting in trouble.
But you know it's December first,and I love me some Christmas and

(48:55):
I love Christmas music. Oh getit, Donnie shake a hand. Donny
Hathaway's This Christmas is one of thesongs we gotta start it with because it
is a vibe that sets the mood. It's happy, I get it,
the horns get it in there.If you can't listen, because the simulcast

(49:16):
shake her hands, shake a hand. I don't even know if that's what
the man's saying, but I'll doit. I'll do it. Yeah,
there you go. Oh my gosh. I heard this song all the time
growing up, and my stepdad isa huge Motown fans, a huge Motown
fan, and I got into myfirst concert when I was growing up as

(49:37):
a kid. Was literally All Green. It's the first concert I ever went
to and I was fifteen. Iknew every song and I was, I
am sure, I you know,stuck out like a sore thumb and I'm
like, why where were the youngestpeople here? But it was. I
mean, I love all of it, and I love Donny Hathaway's stuff.
I remember when I remember Friday Nights. Friday Nights was Blockbuster Video night.

(50:00):
You get to go and pick amovie, and you know, I'd get
to pick one, and my parentsgot to pick one, and I remember
one time they picked James Brown live, and so I got to know all
James Brown stuff. So I grewup lovin you know, all this love
and Donnie Hathaway, lovin' the Supremes, lovin Al Green, lovin' James Brown,
all of it. I don't know. I had a very interesting upbringing,

(50:22):
and I heard this song every Christmas. Of course my stepdad had he
had vinyl. I heard this onvinyl, and he was very particular.
He had Donny Hanthamway's album. Hehad this on ingles, on bees,
I don't even remember, but hewould play the song and we'd be decorating
the tree and it would be beingcrosby some this, some Elvis and some
Donny Hathaway, and I mean itis It's just like a whole vibe.

(50:44):
So we kick off the whole holidayseason. Little Donnie Hathaway, the little
being crossby, got little Paul McCartneyand wings. Because you got to play
that even though my kids, youknow, object it's such a great song.
Cane, we're here just Jamin,you're jaming. Donnie Hathaway is a
mood man. You can't be madwhen you're listening to Donnie Hathaway, You're

(51:06):
just like, you know what,shake a hand, that's right, Steve,
Steve, were you familiar with DonnyHathaway until you start working on the
show? How much fun? Ohyeah, See, everybody knows the song.
Everybody knows this song. Everybody doesyou know Dane Warwick doing a little
drummer boy, that's one of thebest too. That's such a great song.
Oh my gosh. The firesides blazingbright and they're carolling through the night.

(51:29):
Y'all. Whoa Friday. It's December. First, you guys think I'm
joking. I put this video up. I don't think we can play it
because it'll probably be like a copyrightviolation. But you can go to my
Instagram page at d lash and youcan find this video. It's this SNL
thing that they did. The songwas like I wish it was Christmas today

(51:50):
And it was like a goofy littleskit that they did. And it was
Jimmy Fallon and some of the otherguys, Horatio Sands, and they would
he'd play this little guitar and theywould sing. It was kind of goofy.
Well, they had the Muppets doit, and the guy who was
doing the Kermit Puppet that day waslosing his mind. But I'm like,
that's me on Christmas though. Iam that Kermit puppet on Christmas. You
guys thought I was joking. I'mnot not joking. So anyway, we

(52:15):
have officially kicked it off. Sowhen you rejoined me on Monday, we're
gonna have like a whole snowy themeback here. Who knows what kind of
back here. We might have likesome mounts with some decorated trees on them.
We might have some hobby lobby treesup in here. You don't even
know what we're gonna have in here. I mean, it's gonna be a
winter wonderland. Fa la la lala, deck my halls. See,
that's what you can tell everybody thistime of year when you're displeased, instead

(52:37):
of, you know, bless yourheart, just say deck my halls.
You know. All right, Butit's officially kicked off. I told Lorraine.
I dropped her a message and Isaid, Donny hathaway time. And
she's probably like, what is She'sprobably thinking, She's like she's buried in
the Santos congressional stuff, so speaking, and we were talking a little bit

(52:58):
about that just a little bit earlier. All the Santos stuff, which I
still think is ridiculous. They justwant ahead, go ahead and give up
his seat. It's not like wewere. You know, we have seats
to give in the House. Therewas a Christmas gift from Republicans. The
Democrats came, we're just gonna goahead and start giving all the seats.
Just give all the seats, yefive, all the Angels, just go
ahead and give all the seats out. That's all right, just give all

(53:19):
our seats away. So now we'redown we were down to we're down to,
uh, how many four seats?Four seat majority, a three seat
majority, and I think I thinkit's four. I think it's five,
and now it's four. Now it'sa lot less now, that's for sure.
So great job, Republicans, greatjob. I mean, there hasn't
been a trial yet, a guyhadn't even been convicted. But you know,

(53:42):
okay, let's just go ahead.We're just jettison them out. Meanwhile,
you got gold bar Bob gold barBob up there, who's uh definitely,
I mean Jamal Bowman. I mean, how many other people. We
could sit here and go on andon. All right, a couple of
other things. I want to makesure that we are watching on as well,
can we because I got a lotof audios still of this debate.

(54:05):
It was really good. Did youguys know that while all this was happening,
Uh, Bob the Builder was outthere. Actually, that's mean I
shouldn't say that, because Bob theBuilder actually fixed stuff. Uh, Secretary
Mayor new moom poot booty juice.Uh. They he was getting mocked by
protesters during a college speech at MichiganState University. They were calling him petrol
Pete because I guess the alliteration,you know. Uh, they were calling

(54:34):
him petrol Pete. But the heats, I've got some. The whole thing,
I haven't. We haven't heard fromhim in a long time, Like,
we haven't heard from him. Youknow what would have been smart for
the Biden administration to do. Theyshould have come out and been like,
remember, you know how previous Christmasis due to lockdown, we had all
these problems of transportation and supply chainstuff. Well now all of this has

(54:59):
been solved and we don't have this. And they could have had they could
have stuck mayor Secretary poopooty Juice outthere to talk about it, and they
haven't, so they sent them upto Michigan State University to try to sell
EV's. Is he a car salesmanor trains post secretary. I'm like,
yeah, I really, I don'tknow, Like which is it is?
Yeah, I can't figure it out. I can't figure it out. So

(55:20):
he is. Apparently he was speakingof there pushing EV's, which, by
the way, I don't think anybody'sgoing to be getting a ev for Christmas.
I don't think. Yeah, becausethe demand. Nobody wants them.
Nobody wants these things, except unlessit's that truck. Hold up, what
are you gonna say, ken,I was gonna say. The weird thing

(55:42):
is people are looking for coal intheir stockings this year. Yeah. People
want to be the bad kid becauseyou get energy, You get fuel in
your stocking. What did that becomea bad thing? You get reliable,
luscious energy. Oh yeah, goahead and give me cole Sana bring it.
Yeah, go ahead, fill mystocking all the way up. Why
don't you, big guy, goahead, fill it all the way up,
right up to the brim. TheTeslas Cyberbeast. Did you all watch

(56:07):
this video? I'm mean, Ican't remember if I sent it out to
you, and I think I didtweet it out. Musk. We made
fun of it, and it literallylooks like a child's drawing. I mean,
I've never seen anything that looks morelike a child's drawing in my life.
It is apparently also the body ofit can withstand nine milimeter and forty

(56:29):
five. Yeah, well they musttweeted about that yesterday and everyone else was
like, just shoot the glass.Yeah, but you know you're supposed to
hide in the body. I mean, you get what I'm saying. Anyway,
it's the most expensive of their allwheel and rear wheel drive, like
the versions of it, the Cyberbeast, you have the cyber truck. The
Cyberbeast is the most expensive. Sothis I think it's the cyber truck that

(56:52):
starts at sixty one. This onestarts at one hundred, doesn't it.
The Cyberbeast, it was pulling aforty pounds sled against an F three fifty
on a track. They had itrun it up against a portion nine eleven
and it was towing a portion nineeleven and it was beaten a portion nine
eleven. It goes from hold up, what's the top speed? One hundred
thirty miles per hour. This thingis six eight hundred something pounds toning capacity

(57:15):
of eleven thousand pounds, designed forall terrains. It will terrify people as
it approaches them, because they're goingto be like, how did this leap
off my child's page into the actualmeat space in which I exist? It
takes two point six seconds zero sixtywow. Wow. Yeah. So that

(57:35):
is what had me because I likefast cars. I love fast cars.
I like heavy cars. So Iknow we're going to get more meat and
potatoes and politics here in a moment. So when I had as my kids
got a little older, I hadmy mom vehicle and I and it was
making me depressed because they were starteddriving and I was all depressed and stuff,
and I'm like, I don't wantto drive this big vehicle because it's
empty and quiet and it's sad.So I was like, I want something

(58:00):
and it's loud and fast, andI want to feel like I'm in fear
of my life every time I closethe door. And I got it.
I got you know, I gotzag checked all those boxes off. But
the first thing I had asked,though, is I wanted to dodge demon
and I don't don't even think Igot the n part out of that.
And Chris looked at me and saysno, He's like, you're not kidding.

(58:22):
He's like, that is not happening. I'm like, but why it's
it checks these boxes And he's like, you're gonna wrap that around a tree?
Was his first What would you shakeyour head over there? Don't you
shake your head? I'm living withthe thermostat okay. And he's like,
you're gonna wrap it around a tree? I'm like, but it goes fast,
and he's like his eyes get bigger, like, thank you for making

(58:43):
my case for me. Yeah,that's great. So I did get a
vehicle that will goes fast, butit has heavy door and I'm very pleased
with it. But but yeah,and I was like, I was rolling
off all that. He was sayingno to all of them, and but
this one now, because he likesgadgets, he is not as a posed
to evs as I am. I'mnot really opposed to EV's, I could.

(59:04):
I really don't care how this istaken. I don't care about the
whole environmental argument. I just reallydon't give a reds backside. I don't
care. If it looks cool andit goes fast, I'm into it,
you know, like I like it, and it's also kind of a gadget.
But this thing is weird. Ifeel like you would have to take
a class to use it. Right. It's like if a DeLorean was poorly
drawn and also a truck, itwould be this right. Like the back

(59:25):
of it looks like a damn barbecuegirl, like king you could roast your
meat in that. It's weird theway it all lifts up. I don't
know, It's just kind of weirdto me. I liked. I don't
like modernity. I am a macumfull on maximalist, traditionalist hardcore, but
there is something to be said again, it goes. It's it's a giant

(59:45):
vehicle that goes you know, twopoint six seconds zero to sixty, So
that means, you know, yourjowls are going to fly back to the
seat of you know, the vehicleas you take off. I kind of
like that, right. It's justa couple of weapons short of an urban
assault vehicle. Yeah, that meansbullet proof and they're like, look,
you can, you can raise upthe little through what is that like a

(01:00:06):
sun powered thing? Like a solarthing, solar solar charge. My only
objection to EVS is how much ofit has to be sourced in China.
How much of the materials have tobe sourced in China. That's my only
objection. I don't care about theenvironment all that. I you know why,
because gas and cold it's like waybetter. Our extraction's cleaner. It's
just so much better. But Ido, like, you know, I

(01:00:28):
like I have an options. I'mjust I don't like being gas lit into
thinking that it's better for the environmentbecause nobody cares. But Muscus like,
yeah, the doors are bulletproofed fortyfive and nine millimeter. He had a
video in Austin. They did thiswhole thing where they were demonstrating it and
they went to the track and theyshowed this. So it starts at ninety
nine to nine eight hundred and fortyfive horse power tri motor zero to sixty

(01:00:50):
and two point six seve eleven secondquarter a mile. That's the terrifying thing.
You don't hear this thing rolling upon you, which would be good
in a zombie Apocalypse, because youknow they're from you know, in my
expertise, you know that the zombiesare attracted by the noise. So I'm

(01:01:13):
just saying, but they show you, show you like camping with it.
It shows all these people taking thisthing out to camp. You can camp
with it. It would be kindof interesting. It's very it's a brutalist
design, it really is. It'sa very brutalist looking design for sure.
And I feel like you could cutyour eye open on the edges. It's
not very child friendly. But Imean I like, uh, I like

(01:01:37):
it goes fast. It's it's uhpowerful. I just wonder, like,
how many what do you think thebatteries like in this thing? How what
to replace? It would be morethan the damned truck would jeez, it's
probably three quarters of the wait rightthere? All right, we got more
in store because coming up, Igot floor to mean on the way right.
Also some other hits from the debate. We're also going to get into

(01:02:00):
how Dems are apparently caving. Biden'sfacing mutiny over Israel and their defense of
self against Hamasa's attacks. And we'regonna get into all of that stuff as
well. And this story. Wetalked about it once. This teacher who
was almost beaten to death by thisstudent. The mother of the student is

(01:02:20):
pleading for mercy. She doesn't wanther son to go. Oh my gosh.
We got to talk about this.It's his life mission to make bad
decisions. It's time for Florida man. Colorful underwear, people stealing wine,
and an explosive smart toilet. That'swhat we have on deck today. Yeah,

(01:02:43):
I know all these things. Soa robbery suspect. Police were able
to catch him because of his verycolorful underwear. A pair of multicolor briefs
that peeked out above his trousers helpedpolice arrest him a year later. This
is what the Fed said in NewYork The Associated Press. It happened at
a tobacco shop in Queens. Threemass men got out of a maz dug

(01:03:06):
entered the store. According to thefederal complaint, two of the men they
pointed their guns at the employees andcustomers. The third rob the cash register.
But they spotted very colorful briefs anda large letter are in white in
the year nineteen ninety and yellow andso a tipster passed along the Instagram handle
of the suspect with the colorful underwear. They and they found them. They

(01:03:27):
were selling. They had sold themerchandise at another queen's location, and so
yeah, they were able to gethim because of his breeches, because he's
stupid. Yeah, oh man,Now I don't know. I watched the
South Park episode where they had theJapanese toilets and I was like, that
looks so cool, and they're reallykind of I mean, they're very interesting.
This smart toilet apparently exploded while someonewas using it, not because someone

(01:03:52):
was using it. This man barelymanaged to get off his smart toilet with
an intact backside after the smoke startedcoming out of the toilet bowl and the
entire thing burst into flames. Theincident of card on November tenth. The
man was using the toilet. Atfirst, there was a smell of smoke.
The plumes of white smoke started billowingfrom the bowl. It's like a
witch's cauldron. And finally, justas the man got up from the toilet,

(01:04:16):
it burst into flames. He tookphotos. He didn't even have time
to put his shorts on, buthe did take photos. It is pretty
wild. It was like all litup. I mean, it literally looked
like a Halloween decoration. Now theythink it was a short circuit that sparked
the fire, and they they didn'tactually say what make this was. I
kind of would like to know whatmakeout was, but I mean it apparently,

(01:04:38):
I mean it there was this.I guess it was made properly or
something, but it blew up.But that's that's kind of fascinating. That
just saying. Also, let's seehere. Oh, here's the one I
wanted a so I got two winestories. There's one guy who stole I
guess he's gonna have a party outof the publics in Florida with twelve bottles

(01:05:00):
of wine. Yeah. I lovehow this publix is on Fiddlesticks Boulevard in
Fort Myers, God love you FortMyers, Tampa. They're looking for that.
They could catch them. How doyou not catch a guy who steals
twelve bottles of wine? No joke? Right, They're like, if anybody
sees them, call crime stoppers.What he entered a publix and literally walked
right out with twelve bottles of wine. So you could do it like that,

(01:05:24):
or you could do it like thischick a Florida woman got mad because
she demanded that a couple buy herwine, and then she took a wine
bottle and allegedly used it as aweapon to hit a woman on the head
and knocked her boyfriend not cold.Sanford, Florida, Angela Glenn was arrested
Thursday after a couple she was demandingthe couple pay for her bottle of wine
at a gas station. She saidthat Glenn placed her bottle of wine on

(01:05:45):
the counter with her order and theydidn't want to pay for it. She
got mad threatened them, so she'sin testing. Of course, that's not
how you do it, too.Wine up there, stick about that stop.
An hour on the way, alongwith most of campus, sought refuge
in our rooms as classmates and professorschanted proudly for the genocide of Jews while

(01:06:08):
igniting smoke bombs and defacing school property. The neighboring university's president immediately released a
statement describing this as a brazen displayof anti Semitism. He went on saying,
silence in the face of last night'sdemonstration of anti Semitism and hate near
our doorstep is not an option forme. Well, the doorstep of the

(01:06:30):
neighboring university is in fact Penn,and in fact Penn's president did choose silence.
The neighboring university's president swiftly denounced theincident. And yet our president cannot
because the glorious October seventh and you'rea dirty little Jew, you deserve to
die, or words said not byKamas but by my classmates and professors.

(01:06:55):
And because despite all of this,I am adamant and hopeful that we will
not accept, least of all,embrace this horrific new normal on college campuses
today. I can't even believe it'sa new normal. This is just wild,
and this is happening so often onso many college campuses. It's at
the point where it's beyond the pointof having to be addressed. Welcome back

(01:07:17):
to the program, top of thisthird hour, to you, Dana last
share with you. You can listencoast to coast. You can stream the
radio program. You can watch asimulcast on YouTube, Facebook channel thirty forty
seven Direct TV as well. Howdoes it get like this? How does
it get like this? When Iwas in college, it there was nothing

(01:07:39):
like that on college campus. AndI was in college. I graduated in
the late nineties, mid to latenineties. I was in college going up
to the aughts, and it wasnot like that on my college campus at
all. There No one ever wouldhave allowed anybody to live in fear of

(01:08:00):
anybody else. I just remember becausebecause I edited our paper, our school
paper, and I remember when infall in September, when everybody's back on
campus, they had the oh whatis it? It was in the quad
where all of the groups and everybodythey would have like a like a day

(01:08:24):
like it was like a two dayevent where students could walk through the quad
and they could see all the groupsand figure out what they wanted to join,
et cetera, et cetera. Everygroup got along. It was the
opposite of PCU, the movie withJeremy Piven, which I did find streaming.
I shared that link with Lorraine,by the way, who's handling the
YouTube discussion. And it's because youcan't stream it, you can't find it

(01:08:46):
anywhere. But everybody got along likeyou had. I don't remember what one
group there was one group that,I mean, all the groups got along.
There was a Jewish group that gotalong with the Muslim student group,
and you could learn like That's whereI learned aslamalaika all that everybody got along.
Everybody got along, literally, everybodygot along. This is new where

(01:09:10):
everybody has been conditioned to hate eachother. It's all about destabilization. I
was telling Cain when I was inelementary school, and I just now realized
this. We learned u Honkah songsright along with Christmas songs. Now there
were more Christmas songs that we learned. Of course, there are a lot
of Christmas songs for them Jewish people, but we sang as part of our

(01:09:31):
Christmas recital. We sang Honkah songsand nobody ever thought any differently. The
only thing that that kind of youknow, rubbed me the wrong way was
I'm like, you get eight daysof presents. That seems like it's not
fair. And one of my canaanand I were talking about this because our
friends who were Jewish were saying,well, they're like little things, yeah,

(01:09:54):
but you get eight days of them. I had a friend who got
a slap slap bracelet one. Iremember the slap bracelets were there actually made
of measuring tape. Someone told mewere actually made a measuring tape, but
they you slap them right on yourwrist anyway. And I can't remember I
don't I don't remember what one ofthe songs what it was called, but
it was when hanakoh Hannekah come light, the minora will celebrate the season by

(01:10:17):
dancing the horror uh uh h or A. I think it was,
uh eight days of joy on thisholiday. Every day, for eight days,
children will play. I mean,I remember all of I remember all
of these songs. Now. Ithink that's they're talking about a dance.
It's a specific dance, but Idon't know what the dance is. We
learned that song. I learned thatsong in school. I still remember it

(01:10:39):
now. We sing it every yearfor a Christmas recital. That was all
that was a part of our forour Christmas recital. And then we sang
the Dreidle song. And then there'sanother one that we sang. But that
nobody batted an eye like nobody thoughtanything differently of it, you know,
nobody. Nobody had to sign apermissi and slip. Everything was treated like,

(01:11:01):
oh, these happened at the sametime. There was no one has
to compete with the other. Therewas no you, there's no animosity nothing
like. That's just how it was, and nobody had a problem with doing
all of it. It was fun. We had our big Christmas recital and
they had candy and pounche ated andit was you know, it was nice.
Now everything sucks because everybody made itso, they made it miserable.

(01:11:30):
That's the thing that bums me out, Like I feel like my kids will
never know how cool it used tobe because everything just blows. What a
horrible time, What a horrible timeto come of age. Everything is horrible
and everything you do is forever documentedby the matrix of social media. And
everybody's parents let them on social media. They just allow them to be on

(01:11:53):
it. My kids were not allowedto be on social media. Now that
they're in college, I think oneof has I think one of them does
like Snapchat, but I that,but they don't really get on it and
do They don't have Twitter, andthey don't have Facebook, and they don't
do anything. They don't get onit. I think that also contributes to
this too, because I feel likeit allows stupidity to fly more freely,

(01:12:15):
unfiltered. But it wouldn't be aproblem if people were educated. But see,
here's the multi pronged effect of thiscultural warfare you have. I think
universities making people dumber. I toldyou the other day a very good friend
of mine who his name is Van, and he has a website called Blogodiedect
to play on autodietism, and hewrote in a very fantastic deep dive on

(01:12:39):
the importance of grammar and how it'snot people being like grammar nerds and things
like that, it's you know,there, we used to be able to
We had so many choices to soeloquently and articulately express ourselves and to assert
a very friendly disagreement without without runningthe the to the limit of fen someone.

(01:13:00):
And now it's like everybody's been madeso purposefully stupid, and our language
has been so dumbed down that wecan't even express disagreement, and then emotions
fly and everyone takes everything personally andit's just horrific. And so I thought
that was really smart. And thenhow in colleges and universities today, honest

(01:13:20):
debate is not fostered and it's notprotected, and it's not defended. Where
are the people coming out saying no, no, no, absolutely not if
you cannot, if you're not smartenough to share your ideology, talk about
your ideology, here are other ideas, and then defend your principles soundly while
being civil and courteous. You aretoo stupid for debate, sit down?

(01:13:44):
Where are the people who are enforcingthat at these learning institutions that would have
never have flown when I was inschool, never would have flown. I
mean, I read this article theother day where they were talking about parents
with you know, make sure yourchild's opinion, may you know, flatter

(01:14:06):
them and let them know that theyare heard. And no, no,
no, we're not doing that.You'll be heard if your opinion's not stupid.
How about that. You don't havea right to be heard? This
whole my truth. You don't havea right to that. There are so
many people that have opinions, allcompeting for shelf space and the consciousness of

(01:14:27):
this society. You do not havethe right to be heard. You have
the privilege to be heard. Youhave the right to say whatever you want.
You don't have the right for someoneelse to hear it. That's a
privilege. So craft your message accordinglyand earn it. That's what this means.
But no one's told that because they'reafraid to hurt someone's feelings. They're
afraid that someone will be made tofeel inadequate. And honestly, if your

(01:14:50):
opinion is bad, you should bemade to feel inadequate so that you improve
yourself. But heaven forbid, peopledon't want to improve themselves because they look
at that as though it's an offense. Oh my gosh, you're telling me
that I'm in perfect. Yes,we all are, get over it.
Instead, what we do is wecater to this self aggrandizement. No,
you're perfect as is. There's noreason to improve anything. You're perfect.

(01:15:13):
Your opinions are perfect, No,they're not. Most people's opinions are horrible.
I mean, mine are brilliant,but that goes beyond saying you know,
I'm slightly kidding, not really,but that's I think part of the
problem with this. And you're seeingthis play out now in universities everywhere everywhere.
My mom, who was a veryharsh parent, thought I was a

(01:15:36):
harsh parent because I just never gotinto all the wokeory parents stuff. I'm
like, if you suck, I'mgoing to tell you you suck. If
I don't think that's where your skillset is, I'm going to tell you,
this is not where your skill setis. I'm not doing my job
as a parent by catering to thelowest common denominator of your abilities. That's
the truth of the matter. That'snot why God put me here. I

(01:15:58):
do you no favors by not helpingto illuminate your path of purposefulness. I'm
not I'm not helping you. Butparents today and we're seeing this now,
that's part of the problem. Nowyou have students' minds that are just completely
seated and ready for corruption. Andthat's just it. We send them to

(01:16:21):
these corruption factories without the ability tofight against it. It used to not
be that it means used to notbe where you should have to fear the
somebody making an impression on your child'smind. My youngest son who's in college
now, I do not worry aboutthis child at all in terms of ideology,

(01:16:44):
I worry about everybody else. Thishis resoluteness, I am not even
remotely exaggerating, I am not atall. He is the absolute rock against
which all of this breaks. Heis so resolute and so strong in his

(01:17:05):
principles and his position and his faithand all of that nothing. It just
doesn't get to him, and he'ssecure enough in knowing why he believes what
he believes that he doesn't feel theneed to get nast He doesn't need to
get nasty. Now he will matchyour energy, but he doesn't feel the
need to get nasty. He isnot the peacemaker like my older son is,

(01:17:29):
but he's I don't worry about Idon't worry about his abilities or principles
being compromised. In fact, everytime he sees an instance like that,
he becomes more resolute. And that'sthe kind of confidence you should have when
you send your kids out. AndI'm not saying I don't honestly, if
you asked me, what did youdo, I don't know. It was
the grace of God that I didn'truin him. I don't know, like

(01:17:51):
we raised him to you know,we did the best of our ability,
and God fixed all the errors.I guess I don't know all of our
mistakes. I'm like, please,just don't let us break this child.
I don't know what we did,but whatever did, it worked and I
don't have to worry about him.I don't. I don't. I mean,
he knows his own mind, heknows his own mind incredibly well,

(01:18:12):
and he's got a great group offriends that are very similar. That's you
should not feel worried about sending yourkid off out of your home. Remember
what they do not learn in yourhome, they will learn out in the
world. The world will teach them. And now you've been told that you're
a helicopter parent. There is Iget it. There's a difference between hovering
and going too far, but there'salso a difference in being engaged. I

(01:18:34):
hate it when colleges are like,oh, don't talk to your kids for
the first month. Oh hell no, I don't think so. Hi,
l That's not how Mama Dana playsit. And I have no problem in
telling my kids this is inappropriate,that's appropriate, this is not acceptable,
et cetera, et cetera. They'vethey've grown up with it. But now

(01:18:56):
it's like you're supposed to entertain everyeven the everything that you're supposed to entertain
it and somehow accommodate it and givethem room to be who they are,
et cetera. Well, the partof the parent's job is to also instruct
your child. I mean, youwere literally called by that in scripture,
so I don't know why a lotof people are thinking that they have to
bend to need to the world andallow the world to shape their kid over

(01:19:16):
them. That's what this is allabout. They're not saying that, oh,
let your kids shape themselves. They'rethe world saying, let us shape
your kid for you. And likeI said, I think all of that
plays into the psychology of what we'reseeing on these campuses now because you have
all these kids that have been primed, They have been primed for this corruption,
this intellectual corruption, and that's what'staking place. And now we have

(01:19:38):
a quasi nineteen thirties happening again oncollege campuses around the country. It's sickening.
And now all of the news youwould probably miss. It's time for
Dana's Quick five. So Alaska Airlinesand Hawaiian Airlines are going to combine and
expand choices for people. Yeah,I don't care. Self checkouts are going

(01:20:00):
to be scrapped at Walmart, Costcoand Wegmans. The hell's a Wegman?
Is that a British Isn't that aBritish thing? Wegmans? No, I
don't know what it is. Itsounds like it's a British thing. Oh,
some of the pop over Wegmans.Steve tell me about Wegmans. It's
a thing. Oh so it's likethey're schnooks Kane. Yeah yeah, yeah,

(01:20:23):
yeah, yeah yeah. So selfcheckouts a big retailers like Walmart and
Costco, they are going to makethem a thing of the past. And
the reason why is because of crime. They said that crime is killing self
checkouts. They said that even foodretailers are having issues with us that some
preferred not I mean, I don'tmind it. I don't mind the self

(01:20:44):
checkout except when it's like, pleaseput the item in the bag, and
I'm like, I did, pleaseput the item in the bag. I
put it in the bag. That'sthe problem I have. But they said
that some people the tech mishaps,they don't like having to bag things themselves.
I would ever go with like abunch of items to self check out
because I get stressed when I bagthings, because I played too much Tetris

(01:21:06):
as a child and I get verystressed out. But it is crime.
Crime's driving that. I mean,it's let's see here, ooh, a
acron police arrest a guy who wasshot over potato chips. Do we have
an identification on the chips. Isit like ruffles? Is it? Because

(01:21:27):
otherwise I don't care about this story. Yeah, I mean that's important to
us. So al Gore says somethingthat you need to hear just so we
can laugh about it. Stay withus. So we caught a possum in
our attic. This is news andimportant to me. I need a break
from everything. Okay, So wecaught a had Oh gosh, this is

(01:21:49):
We're not cutting any of this.Just don't let you know, okay,
because this will be easy against beforeforever. I have a weird history with
possums. I have a weird historywith a lot of wildlife. All right,
So first off, I like thepossums now because I understand them.
I feel like we get this isliterally this possum that Wan is gonna show

(01:22:12):
in the cage literally just came outof our attic. This this is a
thirty minutes old photo. That's abig little dude. Look at his little
hands, says we little hands.There's like he's so funny. I don't
even know him, and I'm like, we're BFFs. I feel like snow
white, right, like you thinkan animal's cute and all of a sudden.
You think you can talk to birdsand stuff. I don't know,
but I so we caught this thingin our attic. And I mean,

(01:22:38):
I don't know anything about possums otherthan they eat ticks and stuff I hate,
and they kind of get a badrap, right, unless they got
the rabies. They're generally, youknow, pretty easy going little dudes,
you know what I mean. Now, I didn't always think this way.
I'm gonna come back to how canI tame this thing and make it my
friend? So let me just tellyou the story. You're gonna judge me,

(01:23:02):
and that's okay, you know,it's fine. So in our old
house, when we first moved here, we came a cryway. We had
like two days to get a house. I didn't want to I didn't want
to rent because property prices go upso fast, and I was like,
I'll be able to get some equity. So we got this house that literally
backed up to this cutting ranch liketons of acreage. And I used to

(01:23:23):
look out the back window pretend allthe horses were mine, and uh,
there were a lot of coyotes,right. We would hear the yips of
the coyotes at night. I actuallythought it was calming, and then you
know, the coyotes started eating stuff. Right first, it was this,
what's the bird? It's not apheasant, what is it? No,
it's the thing that when it makesits bird noise, it sounds like a

(01:23:45):
woman being attacked. Guinea, Ohmy gosh, Like those things are like
guineas and peacocks are built our nature'salarms. So we'd have this guinea that
would run around the neighborhood and itwould go like, that's the sound it
makes like it just does that.And I tried to lure it. I
wanted to keep it like in myfenced area as like an alarm, and

(01:24:06):
I tried to I didn't have likeany corn meal or whatever the hell those
things eat, so I just haddoritos and I was taking my dorito's and
I was trying to lure it.It didn't work. Uh, and my
neighbors thought I was nuts. Soanyway, our neighbor who also backed up
to the cutting ranch, they hadthis little fluf dog. I don't know
what it was. It was aI can't pronounce that b sean Freese.

(01:24:29):
Don't correct me. The chat willbe like Dana, it's bishon whatever the
bitch and freeze whatever. That poodleis. That thing, the white fluffy
thing. They had one of those, right, and they were getting ready
to take this dog with them andthey were gonna go to the lake something
like that. It was in themorning. Next thing, we know,
all hell's brig and loose because theylet the dog outside in their fenced yard.

(01:24:54):
The wife went back in just toget her coffee, and in the
time that she went back in toget her coffee, kyote he's dug under
their fence, grabbed their little fluffdog and took it up and ate it
all, ate it all up.I'm like, oh my gosh. So
it was crazy, right, everybodywas nuts and we'd see coyotes walk.
I mean, he's nuts. SoI had this in my mind one evening

(01:25:15):
and it's all on our security cameravideo, which we'll never see the light
of day. It's never gonna happenbecause the video shows, you know,
I'm I'm I'm writing something. Andwe had just finished dinner. I got
my laptop in my lap, andmy son went outside with our dogs.
Uh. We had two French bulldogsat the time, Roco and Louie.
He went outside with them uh,because you know, we were just a

(01:25:38):
little nervous because you know, coyotehad just eaten a dog, and we're
like, eh, maybe go outand scare the coyotes off. The next
thing I know, I hear whahblah blah blah blah, and I heard
Louie going crazy. Louie always alertsto everything, but it was unusual to
also hear Rocko bark. Roco soundslike a Rottweiler when he barks, he's
very deceiving. And and I Dukeboided over the couch and Chris followed me.

(01:26:02):
You've seen the video, right Kane. Kane's dying because he's seen it.
Duke boid over the couch and wego outside, and my oldest son
is like holding off Louie and Rocowas being real chill, and the backyard
was pitch black. We didn't haveany lights on. In the back there
was the full moon out, almosta full moon, and I saw the

(01:26:24):
moonlight hit like a sliver of furand it looked gray and matted. And
now, just please understand what Ijust dealt with that day. Coyotes just
ate our neighbor's dog. Right,So my first thought is coyote and I'm
gonna protect my dogs, right,I'm gonna protect my dogs, my kid,

(01:26:45):
I'm gonna protect my family. Soeverything was cool and we're like,
Louis, just don't go sideway.Louie went sideways, as I thought it
like. He immediately was like I'mgonna, you know, to death and
just charged. So I'm like,well, hell, here we go in
to the breach, and I wentwith him because that's what I do.
I don't know. I'm like,i'll ask questions later, and I just
ran right, you know. Ilaunched myself into a dark corner of the

(01:27:08):
yard where the light would not touchexcept for the sliver of moonlight that illuminated
just the brief brief site of graymet in fur, which I had convinced
in my mind was a coyote,maybe a werewolf, who the hell knows.
It was like this time last year. I was right around Halloween,
Kane, I kid you not.So I launched myself into this dark corner
of the yard, and I canhear Louis fighting with something, so I'm

(01:27:30):
like, I'm just gonna feel forstuff that doesn't feel like Louis, and
I'm gonna start wailing me and that'swhat I'm gonna do. Like it was,
you know, it was like Iinvoked my Ozark brawl power. You
know. I immediately like kicked itinto gear. And uh then I could
hear Chris yelling at me to stop. And I was just slinging stuff around,
punching stuff and rolling around, andthe guy had lou I had Louis

(01:27:55):
in my arm. Lady's going crazy. I'm punching something with my hand,
and I don't know what it lookedlike. Positive our neighbors thought, what
the hell are these people doing now? And then the next thing I knew,
I heard somebody go, it's apossum. And then my husband,
who has not jumped into the frayand is standing there looking at me very

(01:28:17):
just like again, giving me thelook of a dad who just realized his
son couldn't catch a football, staringat me, and he's like, it's
what dogs do day night. He'slike yelling at me. I realized I
literally was fighting with apossum. Ithink I was doing it more than Louis
was at that point. And atsome point it decided to pretend that it

(01:28:40):
was dead, and I just keptgoing because it was pitch dark, and
this all happened like in the spanof sixty seconds. And then I felt
real bad because I was like,oh, I punched it to death.
Wait a minute, no, it'sjust playing dead. And then Louis got
it ran and that was a wholeother thing. So long story short,
I was dirty. Do you knowthat they like armpits? They are so

(01:29:02):
stinky. It's like a it's likea bum that washed himself with a dirty
armpit. I don't know how todescribe it. It's so nasty. And
I could not get the smell offmy hands, in my arms I had,
I was like lemons the steel soapbar for onions, like whatever.
It was so bad. So anyway, that then Chris made me feel real

(01:29:27):
bad about it. He's like,well, it's says here on the internet
that these things eat chicks and theydon't get rabies and they actually kill all
the stuff you hate, and youwere out there fighting with it. I
was like, in my defense,I thought that it was a coyote or
werewolf. It was dark, it'saround Halloween. I don't know, so

(01:29:48):
I know, like I my familyate these damn things. I don't know,
Like I'm just I'm like, Icouldn't see it was dark. So
anyway, now fast forward, II I find them that, I find
that we're rather allies, right,the possums, And I now, someone's
like, you're not gonna think thatif you have chickens. Well I don't
have chickens, so but I feel, you know, like we could be

(01:30:12):
friends if they weren't so weird anddidn't fall over and hiss all the time.
Although I do that too, butI like their little hands pause whatever
the hell they are, those littlethings, and you know they're they're generally
useful. Weird as I'll get outlike it's it's like what an alien thought
an animal on Earth might look likeand pieced it together right and glued some
fur on it. That's what theylook like. They're weird looking. But

(01:30:33):
so anyway, there's one in ourattic. We got it in this cage,
and I'm just looking at the littledude. He's got little snowmane eyes.
He's awfully adorable. I feel,you know, you know, they
get a bad rap. I mean, I'm just saying, like if someone
hell, I don't know, theyall look like keys unless they come with
like the Warner brothers, eyelashes anda bow. I'm just gonna assume,

(01:30:57):
right, yeah, unless there's somebabies on teats, I don't see any.
I know they got a little pouch. They are technically marsupials, I
believe. Uh So anyway, Idon't know. I just feel like,
you know, if someone wanted totame one as like a pet, definitely
not talking about myself, if theywanted to tame it for a pet.
I mean maybe, you know,is there someone said you got to do

(01:31:19):
it from the time that they're babies. We're not killing the thing. Of
course, we're gonna release it somewhereby a lake. And I'm like,
great by a lake where there's gators. Great, he's gonna get eaten by
damn gator. So I don't know, uh but I'm just saying I'm like
totally not asking for myself. Twitter'sgoing nuts because I asked the question,
and uh yeah, they said thatthey're big rats and bigger tails kill them.

(01:31:41):
I'm not killing it because they eatticks and stuff. I hate they're
they're somebody said they're the cleanup crew. Aren't they like Nature's janitors. They're
like little nature janitors. I'm notgonna kill Nature's janitor. Let him know,
let him go. I just don'twant them up on my attic,
Like stay out of my stuff,right, you know, like, don't
be getting up my attic. Idon't need you messing around my Christmas decorations.
Okay, I mean we're getting readyto put those out for Jesus's birthday.

(01:32:04):
O don't needs you being around them. So I'm just you know,
I don't know where I would liketo keep him. You know, he
could put little harness on him,you know, he'd be like a little
pet. You know. I can'tget him near Roco because Roco, even
though he's got his issues. Anyway, long story short, apparently everybody's torn.
They're like, don't do it,and then yes, do it,

(01:32:25):
and then others are like, youcan't unless they're like babies, they're wild
at this point, which I agreeit's probably true. But I'm just,
you know, so anyway, that'swhat's going on in my life with the
big the possums and all that came. So I don't know, I mean,
I just feel like, you know, I he's I I guess,
you know, I don't have anyticks or anything in my and on my

(01:32:45):
property, so that I guess that'syou know, he's been helping out right.
So what you could do? Imean, can you I know that
you'd be dedicated to training him ifyou thought you could, But I don't
want you to think you can.Why because you can't. Someone said that
chicken also chickens also eat ticks andturns them into chicken. Really, yeah,
I just don't know if I liketo eat tick made chicken, see

(01:33:11):
what I'm saying. Yeah. Somebodysaid they had a whole family of possums
that they feed every day and they'resweet and gentle. Oh see, And
anyway, I just you know,so I'm just throwing it out there.
I just think that uh yeah,I know they probably carry some nasty stuff,
but anyway, so I'm just thinkingabout it. Chris has already said
no, so I'd have to literallysneak it into the house to make this

(01:33:32):
happen. Pretty sure, I can'thide a possum. If you have some
suggestions on how I may do that, I mean, I'm all ears,
but you know, if you're cold, they're cold, right, How well
would that gon you here? Anyway? So yeah, you know, if

(01:33:58):
you got any advice. I'm opento hearing it. I mean I do
want one as a pet. Ithink it'd be neat. Somebody said they
eat cat food. I know you'regonna eat steak like the rest of us.
We don't do cat stuff. Openthis house. Okay, we don't
do cat I'm allergic at cat.We don't do cat food. Oh that's
the other thing. I wonder ifi'd be allergic to possums. Possums never
get rabid from what I understand,Like, they don't get rid. I
heard they, Oh they don't becausethe internet's never wrong, as you know,

(01:34:24):
like like if you're if you gota sniffle and you google it,
you know you got aids. Imean, here here, you're gonna die.
It's a bowl of aids, likea whole new kind. That saying
some of the other Oh my gosh, everybody needs a possum. It could
be my Christmas possum. I'm justsaying, uh. So the uh we've

(01:34:45):
been going over some of the latestwe had the debate recap. Someone who's
asking me, who do you thinkone of the debate I think not because
they overpowered them with energy, butjust because they kept it Chill. I
think I think Desandas took debate,and it's not just because I like him.
I think that Haley, even thoughI'm not a fan of her foreign
policy and the slightest, I thinkshe performed well. Uh. Tim Scott

(01:35:08):
was there, and also Chris Christywho's still on his I Hate Trump campaign,
and then uh Viveig did not dowell because he came off as to
try hard and just unnecessarily mean,and I think people didn't like that.
Uh So that's how I thought.That's how I thought I went down.

(01:35:29):
It went down like that. Oh, John, can't do your voice?
What were you right now? Thatcease fire is not real? That's what

(01:35:50):
she sounds like, that lady fromthe plane, I done right, That's
exactly what was that something I didn'teven remember? That was she protesting on
I couldn't stop long enough? Ohceasefire? Yeah? Yeah, yes,
she wanted to that Mickey Mouse characterwanted to cease fire. That's what it
sounded like. Oh cease fire.Okay, that's exactly what it sounds like

(01:36:13):
like the South Park's South Park's Mickey. Yeah. So there you have it.
Tomorrow's Friday, Yeah, Friday,tomorrow and we're gonna talk more about
the what Republicans need to do goinginto twenty twenty four because I'm telling you
the elections. I'm telling you rightnow, the elections that happened. I'm

(01:36:36):
never gonna stop. This is gonnakeep going on. The seventh, I
think that portends something kind of badcoming up in twenty four if we don't
get a right handle on it.So we're gonna talk about that tomorrow.
All right, kame day stupidity.All right, what a weird show me.
This is our Vice President, KamalaHarris. I thought I'd set this
up, but let's just play it. You can hear it. Listen to

(01:36:57):
this. Ask to look around theroom and then ask who's not in the
room and then figure out how tobring them in? What? And often
and all of the the leaders here, No, often is not just because
you might leave the door open.What That's not enough. You gotta go

(01:37:17):
out to where folks are, Yeah, literally where they are be it,
where they are geographically, uh,or where they are in terms of what
they're bringing in terms of life experienceto the moment. What to be able
to connect with? What What doesshe say? I know? Uh?
