you tell them we have kids over here, a good
trust me, trust me, I'll be the first to go.

(01:23):
I'll be the first one. They will. They will walk
me out, They'll make me come in here, they'll make
me get up at the four in the morning, come
in here, do the whole thing, and they'll walk my
ass out. There'll be no zoom for me. I can
assure you of that. It would be too gratifying. Guys,
it's a big day. It's election day. It's finally here.
I feel like we've been talking about it for seven elections.

(01:43):
It's finally here. And then someone, somebody, some crazy person.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Do you have me?

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Last night a friend of mine and was like, so,
do you think that it'll like be normal after this?

Speaker 1 (01:52):
You know?

Speaker 2 (01:53):
And it's like, but of course it won't be it
will I don't know if it'll ever be normal again
as long as we have two parties. I think it's
and it has become so divisive, and I don't know
whatever the result is. I pray, I pray that people
can just take a breath and just see what happens
and not go crazy. I'm serious, whatever whatever the result is.

(02:14):
And I know that everyone listening now is thinking of
the opposite and going hell, no.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
I can't imagine that.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Just vote vote and take a deep breath, and everything
is going to be okay.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
In the life's gonna be long. You're gonna have to
wait a while, yes, wait, turn wait for four hours. Well,
don't be discouraged. Don't be discouraged.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
You go.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
Before the polling closes. You're still allowed to vote. That's right,
you're voting right. Yes.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
So it is election day to day and as of
two am today, seventy eight million, six hundred and thirty
eight thousand people have already voted via mail in an
early bout. Also, the first town in America voted at midnight.
It's a tiny township of Dicksville Notch, New Hampshire, and
it continues this tradition of casting the first in person
votes in the presidential election. Just after midnight, the votes

(03:03):
were tallied. There were six total and guess what the
results were? A tieh? Tieh. What's the name of their
football team, Jason, Dixville, Yeah, yeah, the Dixville High School.
What do they call the Dixville Notch High School? Go ahead, Jason.
First it comes to money, just say it, just say it,
say it. I mean the dicks Dicksville Knocks. We are

(03:31):
definitely not going on in certain parts of the country.
If you're an executive shopping this morning for a new
morning show, we have a Disney version that will send
you us.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
I'm not on that one.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
Jason's not even on that one. It's like the Nightly
News for kids. We have a version that we said out.
It's actually none of us are on it. It's called
the Fred Show. It's completely AI. Right now, we're doing
a little Mermaid review. It's fascinating on the iHeart app.
So it was a tie, which I mean, it's kind
of funny, but it's also like, oh God, this is

(04:04):
I think this is what.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
We're up against. I think it's going to be that close.
Can they both be president? Who knows? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (04:10):
Wouldn't that be something? Wouldn't that be something? Uber and
lyfter helping voters get to the polls for a discount.
Those who need a ride to the polls can get
a discount courtesy of some rides here services. Uber has
announced of passengers will be able to get half off
on trips to voting locations by clicking go vote within
the app. Lift users will be able to take half
off with the ride code vote Dash twenty four. Uber

(04:32):
eaches offering discounts on food delivery after six pm as well.
Another tropical storm, Raphael is strengthening in the Caribbean Sea.
It's expected to become a hurricane by Wednesday. Destructive winds,
dangerous storm surge, heavy rainfall in the region is expected
to hit Jamaica, the Grand Caymans, I guess later this

(04:54):
week or later today this week, and Mike landfall in
Cuba as a Category one hurricane on Wednesday was supposed
to happen today. The Florida Keys could see impacts beginning
on Wednesday evening. Retired NFL star Jason Kelsey mixed mixed
feelings about this, but he took to ESPM the pregame
show to apologize after grabbing the phone of an unruly

(05:17):
fan over the weekend and spiking into the ground before
the Ohio State Penn State game. He said on TV
in a heated moment, I decided to greet hate with hate.
I fell short this week. So if you've seen a
video that you know what I'm talking about. Somebody said
a derogatory thing about his brother n him. He grabbed
the phone, he broke it, and then he said a
derogatory thing back to this person, while he should not

(05:38):
have used that derogatory word in response, I don't know
why this guy's apologizing, where the other guy is, the
guy who initiated all this should be apologizing.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
To be honest, ready, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
I mean, Jason Kelsey should not have said what he said,
and I would agree that because he's a public figure,
there is unfortunately a higher standard. But I also don't
disagree with his reaction to that statement being said to
him about anyone. So I'm with a lot of people
in the comments saying, I don't know that you have
anything to apologize for. Had that person never said that

(06:10):
thing to you, that really inflammatory thing, then you wouldn't
have reacted that way and this wouldn't be happening. But
he said on the broadcast, I think everybody has seen
on social media what happened this week list, and I'm
not happy with anything it took place.

Speaker 1 (06:21):
I'm not proud of it.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
In a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate,
and I don't think that's a productive thing.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
I really don't.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
I don't think that it leads to discourse and it's
the right way to go about things. In that moment,
I fell down to a level that I shouldn't have.
I respect, I respect the apology, but.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Well, he's apologizing for himself, not to the other person,
you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Yeah again, I think if he wasn't provoked, this never
would have happened. And if he wasn't provoked in that
way with that kind of language, yeh.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
Plus he works for a pretty big company that is
probably Yeah, right, State is investigating, aren't they. They said
that I thought they might be, Which might be? Guy,
are you familiar with pean At the Squirrel? Rip?

Speaker 2 (06:59):
Pean at This Squirrel? A TikTok star? But this story
gets wilder. I feel like we're looking at a lifetime
movie here, you know, maybe a vice special of some kind.
Because Mark Longo, the owner of Peanut the Squirrel, says
that he's not using a tragedy in controversy surrounding the
death of his pet to drum up subscriptions for what
turns out to be his only fans page, because they

(07:21):
do only fans. Apparently, he thinks his only fans page
is the reason his farm got rated in the first place.
He says that authorities asked him if he had any
cameras in the house, which was a strange question to
ask if they were there because he broke the law
by harboring two undomesticated animals in Peanut the squirrel and
Fred the raccoon, And I'd be happy to play the

(07:41):
voice of Fred the record.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
I think this is my big.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Star, not an only fans though, like on a again
Disney Pixar, we're holding ourselves to a higher standard. He
believes is somebody who had an issue with him shooting
porn with his wife and then separately babysitting some of.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
The neighbor's kids.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
Strange combo complained to the authorities, and that's why the
house got raided. But they came and it's illegal to
own as wild animals which he then tried to domesticate.
Peanut was seized and it raid and then sadly euthanized
as part of a test for rabies, even though there
was proof that he didn't have rabies. He says, everything

(08:18):
he's doing is perfectly legal and they shouldn't come and
taken his animals. So he's going to lawyer up apparently, Yeah,
justice for Peanut the squirrel. Peanut the Squirrel did nothing wrong?
Is Fred the raccoon?

Speaker 1 (08:30):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (08:30):
You know no, I don't think so. I think said
the raccoon. I think he may have joined Peanut this squirld.
I'm not sure about it. But you know he picked
the wrong house. You know, he went to the house
an Holyfans guy. Come on and for tourists returning from
vacation a camera roll full of photos in his suitcase
bursting with souvenirs. That's one way that you can bring

(08:51):
your destination home. Did you buy any sort of a
souvenir from Hawaii, Paulina?

Speaker 1 (08:54):
I did.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
I got like I don't know what it would be called,
but basically it represents the belief in family. It's like
a little statue. Oh nice, Yeah, tiki statue. Yes, and
they carved in the back of it is Maui twenty
twenty four.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Nice. Did you get that at the ABC store?

Speaker 2 (09:10):
Oh no, I'm thinking of that that Hampton News or
whatever in the airport.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
You know Newport needs the Newport News. Yeah, yeah, airport. Yeah,
I got it. But it's sure that says Hawaii on it.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
However, there's a company now in Italy that is bottling
the air from Lake Como and selling the cans for
eleven dollars. So it comes with four hundred milil leaders
of one authentic air collected from Lake Como, a destination
that has become increasingly popular with tourists in recent years, saying,
so it's beauty and celebrity associations. George and Amal Clooney

(09:43):
have a house there, movies that have been filmed there.
The canned air aims to create a souvenir that could
be easily transporting in a suitcase for tourists. It's something original,
fun and even provocative. It's not a product. It's a
tangible memory that you can carry in your heart. They're saying.
Tourists can then open the can and if they want
to and repurpose it as a souvenir pen holder if

(10:04):
you must. So, yeah, that's where we're at and this
is for you and only you, Paulina. Yes, a Texas
man has beaten you out as officially a Guinness World
Record holder thanks to his collection of thirteen hundred pieces
of memorabilia related to the late pop star Selena Kintanila
stopid really, that's right. His name is Andrew Longoria. His

(10:25):
items include albums, tote bags, t shirts, dolls, officially branded jeans,
and more. He became a Selena fan in nineteen ninety
seven when his grandmother bought him Dreaming of You on CD,
two years after the singer's death. He's been collecting and
it's been inspired by his grandmother, who has a massive,
impressive amount of Elvis memorabilia, thirteen hundred pieces of Selena memorabilia.

(10:47):
And I'm sorry, but your twelve hundred is no longer
the record.

Speaker 1 (10:50):
Oh man, you mean my twelve hundred? Like, but I
don't know twelve thousand, five hundred. Oh you have twelve
two hundred. I can't do math today.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
Twelve hundred is nice, it's not twelve one thousands. No,
it's different.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
No, no math math.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
If in fact you have twelve thousand pieces, then I
recommend you you contact Beginner's Record.

Speaker 1 (11:11):
There may go o water.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, there may have been an issue with the comma
in the tabulation. I really hope that somebody else is
counting the votes today. Whoever messed up the difference between
twelve hundred and twelve thousand. It's National Love your Red
Hair Day, National Donut Day, and its Election Day today, guys,
the Entertainer.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Report will get you it.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
