iHeartRadio app. And that is Tony Vallar's version of jingle bells.
I want to hear that every hour today, all right.
He recorded that some years ago and it's been a
big hit. I think he got a gold record for that.
Welcome to the show, John Colbail here, Debra's here, Eric's here.
(01:09):
It's our I guess, final day before the holidays.
Speaker 1 (01:13):

Speaker 8 (01:35):
He doesn't want to be he doesn't want any online presence.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It's better for us that way it is. He has
to do the stuff that I don't want to know about.
Well and welcome. We got two rounds of the Moistline,
last one of the year. They're gonna it's gonna be
a three twenty and three point fifty Moistline will be
back in twenty twenty five, but this will be the
end of the year round up. We have a pull out.
(02:01):
Where was this? We put this on what Instagram? Instagram?
Is it still running or is this the final total?
Speaker 9 (02:07):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Yeah, no. You can still vote however, for however long
you want. It's a good question.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Is it acceptable for the US president to work from
only ten am to four pm? Ninety six percent said no,
it is unacceptable. We deserved better. Only four percent said yes,
So there you go. That's the official verdict of the audience.
Ninety six percent. No, it is unacceptable for the US president.
(02:34):
I read a few articles today about what is the
point of having a press corps if nobody bothered to
write or broadcast any stories about Biden's obvious decline.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
I mean a few people did.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
We had our own iHeart reporter on with us yesterday
and he said he had done some stories about Biden's
fail condition, but man, ninety five percent of the news
media just ignored it.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
And I've been I've been fascinated by this.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Because if this is really one of the biggest scandals
ever involving a presidency, that you had four years of
a guy in severe decline, we don't have any idea
who specifically was running the White House or running policy,
whether it was one people, a committee of three, whether
(03:29):
there were twelve different people on twelve different fronts. And
nobody seems to want to explain this. And there is
a guy, and I've seen him. His name is Chris Saliza,
and he used to work on CNN and the Washington Post.
(03:49):
He was a political reporter there and then he was
a CNN editor at large whatever that means. Finally left
the network a couple of years ago. Now I guess
he's doing his own thing. He's got a YouTube page,
and he finally admitted that he didn't do any reporting
(04:10):
on what now is obvious and was obvious. Then, like
we told you yesterday, we started. We first commissioned the Bidenville,
the biden Deville script back in November of twenty twenty,
just a few days after he got elected, and then
we started running it in January twenty twenty one, I think,
(04:33):
the week that he was inaugurated. We created Bidenville, you know,
which was supposed to be imaginary. It was supposed to
be satiric, satirical funny. Turned out it was real. The
White House was a nursing home the entire time, and
we knew it because we used our eyes. But everybody
(04:55):
in Washington pretended that he was, and they would go
on television repeatedly, people in the news media, people.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
In the White House.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
It's like, oh, he's sharp, he's energetic, he runs circles
around people half his age.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
You heard all the cliches, you.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Know, and still like, you know, forty eight percent of
the country was willing to vote for him, you know,
up until that he pitched forward on the stage. Anyway,
let's play a minute or so of Crystaliza admitting in
this YouTube cast, basically he defrauded the public all these years.
(05:32):
Anybody who followed who read his stuff, watched his stuff,
trusted that he was a good Washington political reporter.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
He defrauded you listen.
Speaker 9 (05:42):
As a reporter, I have a confession to make.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
I should have pushed harder earlier for more information about
Joe Biden's mental and physical well being and any signs
of decline. Republicans would regularly ping me and.
Speaker 10 (05:57):
Say, I want to ask more questions of Joe Biden
and how he's doing.
Speaker 9 (06:00):
He's seventy six, seventy seven, seventy.
Speaker 10 (06:03):
Eight year old man, and I would sort of brush
them off because what I would say is, well, there's.
Speaker 9 (06:10):
No obvious evidence that he's declining.
Speaker 10 (06:13):
A White House and the people around Joe Biden were
absolutely adamant that suggesting anything asking the question about whether
he was in some physical, mental, or both decline was offensive.
Speaker 9 (06:31):
How could you age shaming?
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Age shaming?
Speaker 9 (06:35):
That impacted me at some level?
Speaker 1 (06:38):
You wiener? Yep, he put a little sniveling wiener. Oh,
it impacted me age shaming. I don't want to engage
in age shaming.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
H you can see how the wolk virus wormed its
way into his little brain.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Huh.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Really?
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I saw another quote by another reporter who was asked
a similar question, and she said, well, the White House
was really really good at intimidating people. I said, what
the hell are you talking about. You're a journalist, You're
a reporter. You're supposed to write what you see, write
what you know. Of course they're going to push back
(07:18):
and yell at you, because there are a bunch of wires.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Since look, all.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
He did is repeat whatever the White House gave him.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
I didn't see any evidence.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Oh, outside of your eyesight, I guess, didn't you notice
all the times he was stumbling? I mean, all right,
played Bidenville. I mean, I mean, we don't exactly have
a Washington bureau here. We just would watch TV every
day and look through the news stories for video clips.
And here's what we found over the years.
Speaker 11 (07:52):
We'd like to formally welcome you to the rest home
of old Joe.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Welcome to Bidenville.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Everyone, be the one who created by go you know
the you know the thing may choose my words. Happy birthday,
Happy birthday to you.
Speaker 12 (08:12):
I aware since the day he died, every single day
the rosary he got from where Lady, every time I
hear hell of the chief under where the hell is
he turned around on where where's the where's the president?
There's some attention paid to some language and the report
about my recollection of events.
Speaker 9 (08:28):
I was the foot him.
Speaker 12 (08:30):
Assume me the foothills of the Himalays with Shiji Pan.
For Secretary of Health and Educations, ever, I nominated hobbyer Bakaria.
As you know, initially the president of Mexico, CCI did
not want to open up the gate. I got the
one point nine relief so far. Yeah, cryptocracy, the guys
(08:54):
who were the kleptocracy representative Jackie you here? Where's Jackie
think she was going to be here? There's venter response
from the opposition, but yes, I'm sorry from Amas Golswanta
mention comresce Deba Ross. Where's Deborah this year? I just
(09:14):
had to my picture take with her.
Speaker 11 (09:16):
Oh she couldn't be here actually, And now to give
you a tour of Bidenville before your extended stay, here's
John Cobalt.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
He was introducing dead people.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
He was claiming he just had a photo taken with
a woman who wasn't even in the state. He mixed
up the president of Mexico with the president of somewhere else.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Egypt.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
It isn't in the difference between the Egyptian and the
Mexican president, and Chris Saliza Washington Post and CNN said
he didn't see any evidence. How could that possibly be
he would mispronounce the names of his own cabinet members.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
In fact, I I can't even remember.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
What Xavier Bessara's real name is half the time because
I I try to think of it. It's like, oh, yeah,
Javier Bakaria, that's that's that's what we started calling the
guy here. Oh, by the way, Javier Bacaia wants to
run for governor, so that's gonna be great.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Jabber Bakaria.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah, you know, if he runs for governor, that's that's
what we're gonna call him every single time. Hobbyer Bakaria,
Pavier Bachariah unbelieved. I mean, what do you mean, you
didn't see any evidence? So so the White House would
yell at this guy and other reporters and they got afraid.
(10:37):
I think Woodward and Bernstein went after the Nixon White House.
I'm sure they got bad phone calls too.
Speaker 9 (10:43):
You guys are bad.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You just you'll just print the truth anyway. You print
what you see, you print what's obvious, that's what they
They wouldn't do that. Well, I mean, who needs the
entire media complex in Washington. They're just a bunch of lazy, stupid,
cowardly liars, they really are. I'm surprised that they still
have thirty percent credibility in the polls. They should have
(11:06):
zero percent. They spent four and then everybody in the
White House is part of the conspiracy to cover it up.
The president was basically incapacitated much of the time. He
was eighteen hours a day. You couldn't reach him. He
only worked from ten to four, and hardly everybody I
remember when he was stumbling around he couldn't He couldn't
(11:30):
remember I think one of his cabinet members and or somebody,
some official in government, and he ended up saying the
black guy.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
He was reduced to.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Like describe them, describing them by skin color because he
couldn't remember their names. But I didn't see any evidence. Well,
if you ever see Chris Saliza's name on anything ever, again,
don't believe it. Maybe he got a bad phone call
that morning. We got more coming up.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
You're listening to John Belts on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Did you see the Luigi the Luigi Mangioni crowd yesterday
outside the courthouse in New York City. Did you see
the idiots who are dressed up in uh Luigi hats
the Mario Brothers super Mario Brothers character. If you don't
(12:28):
know Super Mario Brothers, it won't make any sense. It's
kind of funny. It's kind of funny, but these are
These are like a grown couple, actually a fat couple
from Indiana to be perfectly blind. They show up and
they're wearing these bright green hats with the Luigi cartoon
character on them. It's like, what, who does this? Did
(12:52):
they travel from Indiana? Did they get so excited by
Mangioni killing that healthcare executive that they jump into their car,
they get on a plane, they buy a Luigi hat
and they're standing outside the courthouse.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
People do this? I just I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
By the way I saw today on the National Review,
they had a story and this is probably gonna stunt everybody.
Do you know eighty one percent of the country is
happy with their health insurance.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
They are Now.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
When you do a poll and say what do you
think of the health care industry or the health insurance industry,
everybody goes. But if you ask them all about your
particular policy, are you happy with the way you're covered?
And eighty one percent say yes, I'm happy with my
particular coverage. It's kind of like the polling about Congress
by everybody hates Congress. How do you feel about your
(13:50):
own congressman? Oh, my own congressman is doing great. Congress
on an individual by individual basis, they all have high
approval ratings, right, of course they do. They both they
got elected. But Congress as a mass wildly unpopular. Well,
the same thing with health insurance companies. You're happy with
your policy with your company the industry as a whole. Ah,
(14:13):
it's terrible, isn't it? So what's your What I read
is about eighty percent of the country thinks that what
MANGIONI did was wrong.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Good.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
But now we've got that subset and these are people
under thirty forty percent said it was acceptable to shoot
the healthcare executive. We went through that poll the other day,
and I'm thinking this has got to be they have
to be so overwhelmed, because it's clear that they are
not watching regular news anymore at all. In any way.
(14:46):
Of course, regular news is full of lies too. See
where were at a dead end here. There's nothing you
can trust. I tell you one thing not to trust
is whatever you're giving it on, whatever you're being told
on TikTok about how the world works. If you're getting
your cues from tech tik, can you end up saying
it's okay to shoot people in the back on New
York City streets, then maybe they need they do need
(15:08):
to ban TikTok. I mean, if that's the outcome. By
the way, TikTok is going to be banned on January nineteenth,
unless something extraordinary happens because the US government and this
this bill has already passed through the Congress, House, and Senate,
and Biden signed it in January nineteenth, Uh, TikTok goes
(15:31):
dark unless the Supreme Court intervenes and puts a hold
on the law until they can sort things out. And
the fight is over. TikTok their right to their First
Amendment rights to have a social media platform, and the
(15:51):
US government says no, it supersedes their right is national security.
And everybody I hear in Washington, both Democrats and Republicans,
are absolutely convinced it is a massive spy operation. TikTok
is a saying, you know, Sarah trying to go after
Facebook or or Instagram or Twitter or anything like that.
It is it is TikTok, which is owned by the Chinese.
(16:14):
So the Chinese can either sell to an American company
or they have to suspend their business, shut down their
business entirely here.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
And you know in China they don't allow TikTok.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
They don't allow the children to absorb TikTok in China
because what would happen is all kinds of crazy stuff
would spread and next thing, you know, the government would
be overthrown. So they know how influential this could be
with young minds. But the whole thing originally was just
set up a spy operation to gather as much intelligence
about Americans as possible. Now I don't know specifically what
(16:52):
that is, and nobody's ever explained it all these political
critics in Washington, so I don't know if they don't
have anything, or they've got really really bad stuff and
they don't want to say it out loud. Kind of
like the drone situation. I can't figure out if the
drones really are benign. But now new Jersey is sending
(17:16):
out a shoot to kill orders on any drones in
the sky that violate certain airspace in various counties. And
because you can't trust any of the reporting and you
can't trust the government, you don't know what's going on.
You don't know what opinion to have anymore. You don't
know what's good news and what's bad news. But unless
the Supreme Court issues a stay, TikTok is going dark
(17:40):
on January nineteenth, and the Chinese don't want to sell
it to a US company because that's not why they
got into this business. They got into this business in
order to gather all our private information. We come back
a little more celebration of Prop thirty six going into
effect yesterday. We're going to talk with the California District
to Turn Association president. That's Greg Totten, former Venttura County DA.
(18:06):
Greg was on with us a number of times before,
and it was prop for Prop thirty six was their idea,
that was their baby, and we collectively got it passed
and Greg and I are going to speak about it next.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI A six.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
We're on every day from one n till four and
then after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on
the iHeart app. It's the podcast, it's the same as
the radio show. He could pick up whatever you missed.
Yesterday was the day Prop thirty six went into effect.
And so now stealing stuff that's a crime again. You
(18:46):
can go to prison. Also, drug possession, drug use in public,
that's a crime again.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
You can get treatment or you go to jail.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
And if you're fetanyel dealer and you kill some buddy,
next time something happens, you could go to prison too.
And in Orange County the proposition passed with almost seventy
five percent of the vote, and in La County passed
with almost sixty five percent of the vote. San Berdidino
on the riverside, more than seventy three percent of people
(19:18):
said yes, So it was an overwhelming victory for the
La County District Attorney's Association. I'm sorry the California District
Attorney's Association and their leader, Greg Totten, and he used
to be the DA in Ventura County. We had him
on a number of times as his organization launched this proposition.
(19:40):
Let's get him on here celebrate a little. Greg, How
are you.
Speaker 13 (19:44):
I'm terrific, John, how are you?
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I'm great.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I'm just I'm feeling optimistic about a lot of things.
And one thing I'm very optimistic about now is more
bad guys are going to go to jail in prison.
And we got Nathan Hackman to enforce the law now county.
So life was going to get better.
Speaker 13 (20:03):
Yes, as one of my colleagues said, election Day this
year was a trifecta for criminal justice. Nathan Hoffman became
the new DA of La County. Pamela Price was recalled
in Alameda County and Proposition thirty six passed by an
extraordinary landslide margin.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
When this proposition was conceived, and of course, you know
these ideas had been batted around for a while, the
idea of repealing these elements of Prop. Forty seven from
ten years ago. You probably did early polling. You knew
if you could get it on the ballot and it
was worded properly, this thing could win.
Speaker 13 (20:44):
Yes, we did some early preliminary polling that revealed something
that continued to be true throughout the entirety of the campaign,
and that was that California has done with the experiments
with its criminal justice and they're done with the issues
of lawlessness and retail theft, and they also want this
(21:09):
issue of homelessness and people going untreated for serious drug
issues addressed as well. And those survey results continued to
bear out as we went through the campaign and of
course an election day, this initiative, in unprecedented fashion, was
(21:30):
approved by the voters in every single county throughout the
state of California, from the most liberal and progressive jurisdictions
to the more conservative jurisdictions. Californians overwhelmingly supported Prop thirty six.
And now we're charging forward to implement this initiative and
a thoughtful, in his effective way to accomplish the promise,
(21:53):
the true promise of Proposition thirty six.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Do you think there are any forces that are still
going to try to undermine actually getting people back into prison.
Speaker 13 (22:07):
Well, I'm hopeful that given the extent of the election victory,
that some of our opposition will take that to heart
and help us implement this initiative in a way that
is consistent with what the voters will is. But we're
(22:29):
going to be prepared for just about anything that comes.
The law was carefully written. We feel it's pretty bullet proof,
and we feel it will be effectively implemented by law enforcement,
by retailers, and by prosecutors.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
That's I was wondering if there any organizations who might
try to file a lawsuit to block it. That often
happens after propositions pass and then they get held up
in court for a certain amount of time and you
never know what kind of nutty judge you get. But
I haven't heard about any of that happening with Prop
thirty six. Haven't heard that there are any uh, you know,
we're criminal reform organizations that are going to try to
(23:06):
muck things up.
Speaker 13 (23:08):
Well, I wouldn't be surprised if we don't have some
level of litigation. I mean, certainly we can safely assume
that at the tel court letter level where we're implementing
these provisions, the defense bar will try to challenge it.
I think they largely will be unsuccessful, but that's that's
part of their job, and we expect them to do
(23:30):
it and we're prepared for that.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Are people going to be able to see the difference
at some point? I mean, I know it takes a
while for this to filter through the system, because you know,
They're not going to be rounding people up and throw
the throwing them in jail tomorrow morning. You know, they're
they It's like on the third on the third theft,
they could be charged with a felony. The third time
(23:56):
they're hit with their drug possession charge, it could be
a felony and you go to prison or you take treatment.
So there's going to be a little lag before we
see a noticeable difference.
Speaker 13 (24:07):
Yeah, it's a great question, John, and I will just
say to everyone of your listeners, we have to recognize
and acknowledge that with Proposition forty seven that was approved
in twenty fourteen, it really took us eight to ten
years to get to this point of this open lawlessness
(24:27):
and the issues that have been so frustrating for every
citizen in California. It's going to take us time to
implement it. We actually had a very large roundtable that
included retailers, large and small small business, members of the
real estate industry, as well as law enforcement, crime victim
(24:47):
organizations das. That was just last week in Hollywood, and
we're busily putting together recommendations to all of those respective
entities for the thoughtful implementation of this it's going to
take it some time. Consumers should not expect to immediately
(25:08):
see products go from behind locked doors. But at the
same time, we have tremendous confidence that we're going to
be able to focus our resources on the worst offenders,
hold them accountable, and incapacitate them through incarceration. We also
are very confident that, to the extent we can get
(25:31):
people into meaningful treatment programs, we're going to reduce homelessness.
It's going to take time to see those results, but
we are committed and we are moving forward just as
rapidly as we can do.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
You think the criminal element is going to get the
message here because they got the message when Prop. Forty
seven passed and the laws were loosened, and they became
very aware that they could walk into a place and
steal nine hundred and fifty dollars worth of stuff and
nobody was going to bother them. Is the reverse true?
Are they going to be aware now that they're being
(26:06):
watched and if they if they steal too many times,
that they're going to see prison.
Speaker 13 (26:11):
Yeah, that's a very interesting question. I actually attended a
celebration event, a holiday event with a number of franchise
Ese small business owners who are franchisees of convenience stores,
and I was at I told them it was going
to take time, and I'd say ten to fifteen of
(26:32):
them came up to me afterwards and said, Greg, we're
already seeing it. It's already changing. We're already seeing that
just from a cultural standpoint, a criminal cultural standpoint. They're
getting the message and things that are already starting to change.
So for me, I was very encouraging to hear that
and my own experience. I mean, I've been in this
(26:53):
profession for more than four decades, and people who commit
crimes already quickly figure out that things have changed, and
so to speak, there's a new sheriff in town and
new levels of consequences, and the smart ones change their
behavior as a consequence.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
One more.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Do you think in Sacramento, Newsom and the Democratic legislature
realized that this game is over? Or do you think
they're going to try to come back with some kind
of said laws to unravel what we've just done.
Speaker 9 (27:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (27:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 13 (27:32):
I don't want to speculate as to what they're thinking.
We you know, we certainly have plans for this legislative
session or moving forward, and we're we're eager to work
with anybody from you know, legislative leadership, to the administration
to other folks that opposed this on this effort, We're
(27:54):
willing to work with anybody to move this forward in
a thoughtful and responsible way that accomplishes the intended results.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
Well, Greg, you did a terrific job, your whole team,
the California District Attorney's Association. This was so badly needed.
The public wanted it very very badly, and of course,
you know, individual members of the public, there's no way
they can change the laws at this level with the
legislature and the governor being the way they are. So
(28:23):
you did tremendous work here and everybody I know is
thrilled you about the changes.
Speaker 13 (28:28):
It was a great team effort, John, and I want
to thank you for telling our story as effectively as
you did on your radio program. It meant a great
deal to us.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Well, you're welcome, all right. Anytime you have something you
just let me know.
Speaker 13 (28:43):
Right, Thank you, all.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Right, Greg Totten, and he's the head of the California
District Attorneys Association. Coming up, why are people putting beef
on their face?
Speaker 7 (28:57):
What thief.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Why are people putting beef on their faces?
Speaker 7 (29:01):
They're stupid?
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Well, we'll see it could be a good reason. In fact,
you may want.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
To do it.
Speaker 7 (29:07):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Well, I'll tell you.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI Am sixty.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Follow us at John Coblt Radio at John Coblt Radio,
and we need only seven hundred and seventeen more flowers,
and then we hit twenty thousand, and I think I
went a prize something like that. Talk to Alex Stone
coming up after two o'clock ABC News. I can't believe Pete,
State of California is warning you not to drink raw
(29:38):
milk unpasteurized milk because you could catch the bird flow.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Yeah, John, Yes.
Speaker 8 (29:47):
Don't drink raw milk because you can catch the bird flow.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
Thank you. You're just you'd love public service announcements. All right.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
I got a health tip for you here, and a
health tip cosmetics tip. Women are putting beef on their faces?
And why John, Why?
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Because it says so on TikTok, that's why.
Speaker 7 (30:09):
Come on.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Here's an example of this New York Times story not
making this up. A profile a woman named Sasha Green.
She goes to Costco and she buys ground pork, turkey,
chicken breasts for dinner right for a family, and then
she buys a steak for her face. Beef tallow is
the fat from around a cow's organs, Oh God, and
(30:35):
it's become a popular ingredient in cosmetic products. Customers swear
by its natural moisturizing properties, and businesses are selling tallow
based creams. Tallow is fat, It's just a particular kind
of fat within the cow, and apparently there's great demand
for this.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Now. People are swearing that it.
Speaker 7 (30:59):
Were it just moisturizes your faith.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Sasha Green stopped spending a fortune on all those expensive
skin care products. She started seeing tiktoks from people promoting
this natural miracle ingredients cheaper than anything you good buy it,
that you can buy it before I made my own
to start, I got meat from Costco, stripped off the fat,
(31:25):
and began rendering it. That's a process where you cook
the fat repeatedly with water and salt remove impurities until
you're left with a white wasky, white waxy disk at
the bottom of the bowl. And they even had photos
that shows you if.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
You keep.
Speaker 7 (31:46):
No thank you.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Then you whip it, mix it with oils, and it's
ready to slop on your face.
Speaker 7 (31:54):
First of all, that's a long process.
Speaker 8 (31:57):
And second of all, you can get very inexpensive moist
riisers and you don't have to go to Sephora and there.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Do they have beef fat.
Speaker 8 (32:04):
No, they do not, but they work very well. In fact,
all my cosmetics are vegan. By the way, I'm just saying.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Does that mean you can eat them?
Speaker 7 (32:14):
Yes?
Speaker 11 (32:16):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
She uses the tallow for bug bites, rashes, dry skin,
bad burns. Just load up on the towel, on the tallow.
Another woman in here, Rachel Ogden. Within a minute of
applying tallow, she said her skin goes from from dry
(32:38):
to greasy to fully nourished.
Speaker 7 (32:40):
Yeah, because there's all that fat.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
And Robert Kennedy is a promoter of cooking tallow. He's
also a promoter of raw milk. Yeah, you follow everything,
put them together, follow everything. He says, they're gonna end
up with the bird flu, but you'll have very smooth skin.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
So that's that's the trade off there.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
He sells hats, Honest to God, he sells hats that say,
make frying oil tallow again, make frying oil. That doesn't
It says the same rhythm as Make America Great Now.
Cooking tallow and skincare tollo are slightly different. Cooking towel tallow,
I can't even say that word refers to rendered fats,
(33:20):
while skincare tallow is beef suet or fat from around
the cow's kidneys. So you take you take kidney fat
from a cow and then cook it and slap it
on your face, and you're gonna look a lot younger.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
Well, it says that on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Yeah, be true and drink raw milk and that's healthier
until you die of the bird fluw look says it
on TikTok.
Speaker 7 (33:49):
Yeah, my skin.
Speaker 8 (33:53):
Is moisturized, and I don't use that animal fat.
Speaker 7 (33:58):
I'm just saying I.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
Had a feeling you weren't gonna you weren't going to
sign on to this.
Speaker 7 (34:02):
We gave you that.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
Experience when we come back. Who's I going to have on?
Speaker 11 (34:09):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Hearing it Alex Stone from Maybec News about about the
raw milk which is may have bird flu in it.
Oh and cats are now getting getting getting sick.
Speaker 7 (34:21):
Yes, you have a cat, but you don't let her out.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
Well we'll tell you how they're getting the bird flu. Okay,
