Speaker 1 (00:26):
It's sadver.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Hello on the cutting room floor today.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
Well, we know that Kennedy is a big name in
American politics. There's a Louisiana representative as a Republican Senator,
John Kennedy, and he's not a member of the Kennedy family,
but he recently has gone a little viral. He was
part of a Senate hearing and he stood next to
an image. You know that scene in Alien where the

(00:56):
alien bursts.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
Out of his chest hurts chest.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Yes, and it's sort of this gooby kind of thing
like it's like a dolphin fetus but jaws and mankey.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
Yeah, looks Rank, looks.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Rank stood next to a big, a big picture of
one of those and this is what he said. It'll
kill you even if it doesn't turn you into the alien.
If you eat the stuff or what I guarantee, you'll
grow an extra yar. You'll grow an extra ear it
doesn't kill you or turn you into the alien from Alien.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
To be kind of handy three is Well, he's.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Saying that it's it's riddled with a particular isotope.

Speaker 3 (01:34):
Cesium one three seven.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Well it's your favorite, I know, or cessium as we
say in Australia. This one is the one that is
used in cancer treatments. It traces you know, isotopes and research.
It is a very dangerous contaminant.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
It's not good for you. No.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
But the FDA apparently, though, said that the amount detected
in the shipment that he's talking about was below the
amount that they would interfere, that the level of intervention
would require a.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
Lot of a lot of products. I think marine products,
see creatures and stuff actually have a level of cessium
in there.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Oh really, I believed it.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
I think I've heard of this before because we import
a lot of frozen seafood from Indonesia. I don't know why,
because we have our own that we should be doing.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
And this is purely what they're doing in America. It's
by American and they've got a big shrimp industry over
there in America. Probably means you'll have to pay a
bit more. But unless you want cessium.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Well unless you want to turn into an alien. It's
an extreme example of the very that you'll die or
you'll look like this alien that's come out of the chair.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
But he's got a giant picture of an alien.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Or you will at very least grow an extra ear.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
I would like an extra ear because you're always claiming
I don't listen to a word.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
True.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
So I'm gonna have the Amanda ear just always listening
to you, just on my forehead.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
I'll point this out there. When I was listening to that,
there was something that I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
If you noticed it.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
What was it?

Speaker 3 (02:58):
But did he cut one in the middle of this?

Speaker 1 (03:00):
In late August, the FDA found that raw I think
leather seat. It's my new game show.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
Yeah yeah, yeah, Okay, kids, that's it for today. Come
back tomorrow from more Jensie and Amanda's patom Floor
