Okay.
Speaker 7 (02:20):
What I say, I mean unlike most of your friends. Okay,
if your faelis are hurt and you're triggered, it means
you're going to hell.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
That's what it means.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
So I don't really.
Speaker 11 (02:31):
Care how you feel, and I never will.
Speaker 12 (02:44):
Okay, So since Trump won the election, we're cooked up.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
I'm gonna be.
Speaker 12 (02:49):
Leaving the US and I'm gonna be moving to Hawaii.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
So we'll see how it goes, and I'll update you.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Guys now that we're all saying what we're thinking.
Speaker 10 (02:56):
I'm gonna go ahead and say that I think if
you wanted for Donald Trump, you're ugly. I think you're
all freaking ugly, and I think you're dumb as bricks.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
I also not only won't care when all.
Speaker 10 (03:05):
The bad stuff that's gonna happen happens to you, I
actually want it to happen to you. I want your
taxes to go up. I want things to be more
expensive for you. I want you to have a complicated pregnancy.
I want all that bad stuff to happen to you
because that's what you deserve. Also, like, the only silver
lining is it's actually gonna suck for all you Trump
voters way more than it's gonna suck for us Blue voters,
because we actually have educations and good jobs. Y'all are
(03:26):
broke at So it's really gonna suck for you when
he raises your taxes.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Auton, is this cutting off hair. I'm gonna have to
cut it short.
Speaker 13 (03:34):
Being skinny, being hot, and all the things that the
patriarchy wants us to be because clearly they don't give
it about us.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
They're cutting it off because you. That's why I think.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I'm crazy too crazy, just like all the women before
me who are crazy so crazy.
Speaker 13 (03:51):
I will not be giving my money to the beauty
industry anymore. I'll not be giving my money to anyone
that help support misogyny and the patriarchy and keeping women down.
And can women think that we need to look a
certain way or be a certain way? You women can
stop dating man, stop having sex with men, stop talking
to men, divorce your husbands, leave your boyfriends.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Leave them.
Speaker 14 (04:12):
Now that the orange turd has won, we should now
rename America hell because it is going to be hell
on Earth one space trip. Everyone writes away that is
no straight white cys man, so buckle up.
Speaker 15 (04:25):
Hope you freaking Republicans are happy.
Speaker 16 (04:39):
Michael Berry, you know what's said by Orange. We're fit
to come to an end of an era. And it's
not like the Si Bellafield era, and sometime it's different
from the Velma Jim era. And when I say Spears,
I don't mean Sparrow, because that's an entirely different funeral home.
But Larry's Spears have been the mayor of Errange for
(05:03):
many a year now. I don't know if he even
get paid for that. I hope he do because he
did an excellent job. Old pol Jim Goodman, y'all remember him.
He was a controversial police amans back in the day.
And he told me one time, he said, Larry Spears
is a good man, come from a good family, got
a beautiful house and beautiful children. He said, vote for him,
(05:27):
and I ain't never regretted it. The parent is Micael Barrett.
Under this current administrations of Range, you're not gonna get
these streets renamed, did it like he wants to? I
know you want to rename sixteenth Street, which was formerly
called shirleyqu lickor Boulevard, into bum Phillips Avenue or whatever
(05:48):
it is. But it's not gonna happen. You're not gonna
be happy until they renamed lynnen Wood barry Wood.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Micael Berry.
Speaker 16 (05:58):
I have never seen nobody didn't need more affirmation than you,
except a transgender What in the hell? But I'm sorry,
there is no surgery behind it. They can fix it.
No hell tell you, mama as a hyder.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
What's the affirmation?
Speaker 13 (06:16):
Ma?
Speaker 16 (06:16):
That means somebody tell you were something? Are you mean
something to somebody else?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
I don't know.
Speaker 16 (06:21):
It's white people wear.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
It's near here how do you're on the Michael Berry Show.
What you got, my dear?
Speaker 9 (06:28):
I am calling to Bragg on the WISSS group because
of you, Michael Berry. I heard about them and I thought, well,
let me check them out. So missus Dina Almotazeb, and
she said to tell you her name because you don't
like her name because it's so difficult. But she is
(06:50):
so so good. She did my turidium on my left
eye about a week ago, and she is doing my
tuigium on my right in December, and then she is
doing my cataracts and next year she has to wait
three months. But they are all so good. They are
(07:10):
so sweet and so good. I haven't met Jeff yet,
and they said, you just see him walk by one day,
but I haven't been there on the day that he's
actually there, so I haven't got to meet him yet.
But I've met all the other girls and they are superb,
absolutely top notch. I recommend them everywhere. And I told
them I'm going to call you and let you know, well,
(07:32):
so there you have it.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I like to hear the feedback.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
We've partnered with them for well, I've bet twelve thirteen
years and we have had a lot of folks who
had A woman who was seventy five said she could
see again, and I said, like you were twenty, and
she said, no, I couldn't see this well when I
was twenty. I can see like I've never been able
to see before. And at seventy five years old, I
think that's that's a pretty big compliment. Where are you from, Heidi, I.
Speaker 9 (07:58):
Was born in Norway. The girl that was smuggled in
through Germany and behind a suitcase long time ago. You
have that on your on your show, and I'm sixty nine.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Well, you have a delightful, delightful voice and accident, my dear,
delight so much.
Speaker 9 (08:17):
I appreciate you talking about them. And the lady at
the desk said, yea, every day, every day you talked
about them, and I really appreciated day.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Super You know, all this monkey talk reminds me of
an old story. I wasn't gonna tell it because it
includes the word testicles and people get.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Upset about that.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
So instead of testicles, I'm gonna say, whybos sos? In
the joke, a gorilla escaped from the zoo Ramon. He
made his way to a residential area, where he took
up residence in a giant oak tree in a citizen's
front yard. The citizen called the zoo and they sent
a zoo keeper out to the property with a bulldog
and a pistol. What's the plan, asked the homeowner. Well,
(09:02):
I'm gonna climb up in that tree, said the zo
said the zoo keeper, and crawl out on that branch
where the gorilla is. I'll shake the branch until he
falls down. The bulldog is trained to bite his huabos
and not let go, incapacitating him until I can get
down out of the tree and then take care of him. Okay,
replied the homeowner. What's the pistol for? If I fall
out that tree? You shoot the bulldog? I love this
(09:26):
story so much. According to a release by MGM Resorts,
hospitality workers from across the Vegas area gathered to showcase
their skills in a series of challenges. A total of
nine teams competed in a vacuum race, where housekeepers rode
vacuums to clear the track in record time. They also
demonstrated their efficiency and teamwork in a mock relay, bedmaking
(09:47):
competition and tucking sheets relay Las Vegas, Las Vegas hospitality
workers competing in the thirty fifth Annual Housekeeping Olympics, where
they do all of these cool things inside edition with
the story.

The team from Resorts World took the top prize. These
guys are trying to clean up in the mopping obstacle course,
and look at the competition for vacuuming skills. Hey, you
missed a spot, And what the heck is going on here?
Speaker 12 (10:30):
Why?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
It's the buffer pad toss.
Speaker 17 (10:32):
Of course, those pads are used to shine up the
miles of marble flooring all over Sin City. Someone added
a music from Chariots of Fire to.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
This highlight reels.
Speaker 17 (10:44):
Perfect team snag trophies and gold medals, but mostly it's
about dragging rates for the hardest working folks in Las Vegas.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
I love this, and I love the MLK street sweeper,
sweet speech. I love the idea of whatever it is
you do with your time, maybe maybe you're better than this,
and you want bigger things somewhere down the road. Or
maybe this isn't the most glamorous, but the concept of saying,
where I am, in my little corner of the world.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Right here, I'm gonna be the best I can be
at what I do.
Speaker 18 (11:24):
I love that what I'm saying to you this morning,
my friends, even if it calls your lot to be
a street sweeper, going out in sweep streets like Michael
Angelo painted peak, sweep streets like handle and they've told
then composed music streets like.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Shakespeare road torture. All right, sweep streets.
Speaker 18 (11:48):
So well that all the hosts of heaven and Earth
will have to pause and say, He'll live the great street.
Speaker 17 (11:53):
Sweeper who sweat the job.
Speaker 18 (11:55):
Wear. If you can't be a pine on the top
of a hill, be a scub the vallet, But be
the best little scruff on the side of.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
The real Be a bush.
Speaker 18 (12:03):
If you can't be a tree, if you can't be
a highway, just be a trail. If you can't be
the sun, be a star. It isn't by size that
you win or you fail. Be the best of whatever
you are.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
And when you do this, when.
Speaker 18 (12:19):
You do this, you mastered the Lins of Life.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
We were debating internally as a team which TV housekeeper
would win a gold medal at the Vegas Housekeeping Olympics.
The first that came to mind was Alice from the
Brady Bunch. She kept that house immaculate, she cooked all
the meals, and yet she still had time for Sandy Butcher.
Speaker 19 (12:39):
What do you mean an ulterior motives, Sally? I don't
have ulterior motives much as long as I know you're
going bowling on Saturday night.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
That answers my question.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Fine, no, Land does this? Does what else?
Speaker 19 (12:53):
I've called every girl I know that Sam knows mister Brady,
and one of them will admit that he's taking her
to the meat Cutter's ball and he's going to stay
Sam Stay. The only time he's heard that word is
when somebody brought a dead deer to the butcher's shop.
So he's teaking somebody I know it. Oh well, what
(13:13):
difference doesn't make anyway? Dances Tomorrow night, twenty four hours
from now, Sam will be on the dance floor another
twinkling lights, violins, sign.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
Air heady was perfumed, and he'll be starming around the
floor like all the other butchers.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
George Jefferson always joked that Florence didn't do anything, but
that deluxe apartment in the sky was always well kept.
If Florence wasn't doing a good job, why didn't George
fire her? Or why did he fire her only to
rehire her every time with a raise.
Speaker 9 (13:52):
Florence, I've arranged everything.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
You can start working for the Willis says tonight.

Speaker 3 (14:32):

as running an all girls' school, but some of us
remember as the Drummond's housekeeper on different strokes.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
I love that show.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Not only did she clean the penthouse and cook the meals,
but she had to keep an eye on the ever
mischievous army.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
What are you doing?
Speaker 21 (14:48):
I don't Oh, and what are you planning on doing
with that and nothing?

his name is, it doesn't matter. He's Scambusters or whatever,
and what he does is he messes with Nigerian scammers,
and he gets them all fired up. They're gonna get

they do is they do a lot of research on

someone and it's elderly people and their grandkid, and so
they'll call and say, your grandson's been arrested. He's going,
I'm the bail bondsman. I can get him out, but
he's done some terrible things. He was drunk, he hit
this woman. She's pregnant, she's die, she's dead. I can
get him out of this, but we're gonna have to
get on this right now. And so he plays the
(18:35):
old woman scamming the scammer, and he's going to bitcoin
him the money, but he keeps reading the number to
He's gonna send the money into that guy's wallet bitcoin watt,
but he keeps getting the number wrong. And then he
says I sent the money and the guy says.

a child under fourteen, six counts of aggravated sexual assault
of a child, and two counts of indecent see with
the child, is given a plea where most of the
charges are dropped and he's given deferred probations, which means
(20:09):
he's not even on probation, which means he basically walks free.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
The story from KVUE at TV in Austin, Travis County.

Belle was originally indicted on nine felony charges, including continuous
sexual abuse of a child under fourteen, six counts of
aggravated sexual assault, and two counts of indecency with a child.

Prosecutors agreed to dismiss those charges against Bell for his plea.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Of guilty to one count of injury to a child.

only our first the last flea deal, but this was
our deal, whether I liked it or not.

Richard Lee Bell, who now lives in Lexington, Virginia, was
sentenced to five years to for probation and ordered to
not have any contact with the victim, her family, or
any other miners. He'll also have to register as a
sex offender.

rock in a jail for doing something like this.

Speaker 23 (21:33):
Expectual abuse in just about every way.

We reached out to the Travis County District Attorney Jose
Gars's office and asked why Bell was offered a plea agreement.
We have yet to receive a statement.
Speaker 3 (21:47):

homeless people.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
Two men arrested in Tomball for the unprovoked pepper spray
attack on a homeless man. They posted video of it

Speaker 26 (23:23):
I think what people are doing out here by showing
up and showing support and giving them hugs and encouragement,
that's that speaks highly of Houston.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
What these two.
Speaker 26 (23:32):
Guys did is not reflective of Houstonians were way better
than that.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
I do appreciate, you know.
Speaker 26 (23:39):
All the hell.

Speaker 23 (24:21):
It's not.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
You want the cherognize is the ob preologizing.
Speaker 17 (24:27):
The chair recognizement is In the Ave Preato, two serial
burglar brothers.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Described as career criminals.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Have been arrested again.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
They've done it again, and then they've been sentenced to a
whopping twelve days in jail after their latest burglary conviction.
Grown Stoppers Andy Kahn says, how do you go from
an eight year sentence where you actually spent real time
in prison? So you do it later and you practically
get nh thing for a felony conviction? Fox twenty six
(25:03):
with the story.
Speaker 25 (25:03):
We described the Lanis brothers as career criminals.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Would you agree with that?
Speaker 1 (25:07):
No?
Speaker 2 (25:07):
If hands or buff.
Speaker 25 (25:08):
This woman is a victim of the brothers. She asked
not to be identified.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Literally, within about twenty seconds, these guys drove by with
your truck, helped themselves to a bike and a ladder
from our garage, and drove off and it.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Was all caught on tape.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
All on tape, broad dayly.
Speaker 25 (25:25):
In twenty fourteen, Ruben Lanirez was sentenced to eight years
in prison for burglary and aggravated robbery, and in.
Speaker 20 (25:32):
June of twenty five, both brothers pled guilty to felony theft.
They were sentenced to six months in jail.
Speaker 25 (25:41):
We didn't know it on Tuesday, but the Lanies brothers
had already been sentenced.
Speaker 20 (25:46):
I'm not seen someone arrested, charged and convicted in less
than a week.
Speaker 25 (25:53):
The brothers appeared before three thirty eighth Judge Michelle Akin
after pleading guilty. Both brothers were sentenced to just twelve
days in jail. They walked out after six days because
they got credit for time served.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Yeah, they don't seem like a fairly short tentage and
kind of an easy out.
Speaker 20 (26:10):
How do you go from an eight year sentence where
you actually spent a long time in prison to practically
nothing on a felony conviction. That just absolutely blows me away.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
You know, when crime has no real downside, it induces
more people to get into it, and you're going to
see more layoffs.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
It's coming. AI is going.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
To make many people's position redundant. The tasks will be
able to be performed without a human being and being involved,
and in the earlier phases, it'll be the people simply
doing the work that'll be removed and those overseeing it
quality control, direction, inventory, those sorts of things compliance will
(27:02):
keep their job. But in time that to a lot
of that will be wiped out. And that's going to
allow people. That's on Elon musk interview the other day,
and I can't remember the language he used, going to
make Oh, it's going to make work optional. That's what
I said. It's going to make work optional. But I
don't know that that's really what's happening. Because people are
(27:26):
losing their jobs. We refer to them as jobs, but
let's call them what they are. People are losing their
ability to pay their bills, and the corporation is going
to For most corporations, their largest expense is labor, and
they're in a constant battle to shed as much of
(27:47):
that as they can. That's part of the profitability model,
and to the extent for most companies, to the extent
that they tell you, you know, you're a nice person, we're
glad you're here. You know, just let's build morale and
all that. That's just to get more out of you
while you're there. When it comes down to the opportunity
(28:07):
to shed employees and cut that cost, it is going
to be too seductive for almost every company, almost every
company to be able to say no to it. They're
just going to do it, and they're going to justify
it as well. Everybody else is doing it. And I'm
under pressure for profitability, and there is this sort of
(28:30):
ghost dividend that was expected or did not live up
to what the hype was. But that dividend is coming,
it's just not as fast as people thought. If you
make let's just take a simple function. If you make
an automobile and it costs you fifteen thousand dollars and
you sell it for thirty and you could drive the
(28:51):
cost of labor on that automobile down from you know,
six of that fifteen down to one of that fifteen.
That's fills the top of profitability because nobody's lowering prices retail.
Nowhere in the process is anybody lowering prices as a
result of reducing labor costs. They're simply pocketing bigger profits.
(29:15):
And that's why you've seen the stock market rise as
unemployment rises. Usually when companies aren't doing well, they lay
off employees. When they're doing well, they hire employees. So
when the stock market is rising, companies are making money,
unemployment is going down. What we've been seeing is the
(29:37):
stock market rising as unemployment is rising. And that's just
the nature of the next phase of industrialization. You know,
the industry. The Industrial revolution brought people from the farms
into the cities and everything that went with that, and
how life changed as a result of that, and very
(29:57):
few people stayed on the farm. And eventually the industrial
gave way to the post industrial and then you have
things turning digital, but you still in the computer age.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
You still had human beings involved at.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Almost every level, and computers slowly grew in their ability
to perform tasks. And then you had the introduction of
what can be known as artificial intelligence, and that is
the ability to anticipate, the ability to discern, the ability
to make decisions so that it wasn't just garbageing and
garbage out. It was now the ability to respond to
(30:34):
situations that could not even have been anticipated based on
pulling from all that data, which is what a human
being does. It's not to say there won't be any
human beings who will be needed in our economy. It
is to say that the marginal number of layoffs is
going to be significant, and that's going to continue a pace.
You also have an increasing inability of our schools to
(30:59):
graduate people with the life skills.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
You can see that.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
And so what you're gonna have is an increase in
crime and if we don't deal with it,
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Michael Very Show.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Let's get out of here, out Canada.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Canada won't be there before the son of that you
know what hit him.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
The Fox News Decision desk can now officially project that
Donald Trump will become the forty seventh president of the
United States.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
You guys know that my husband turned Republican this term.
I don't know why I threw his ass out of
the house. I think I'm going to sleep with his friends.
I think that's the only way.
Speaker 6 (00:58):
Forby movement starting, We're not going to die anymore. We're
not gonna do makeup. We're not going to use filters,
We're not gonna go get the skin stuff. We're not
gonna dress up and look nice. Why so that they
can come and act like they own us because we
look like this absolutely not know y'all. The FOURB movement
means like we gonna be cozy, comfy in our own skin,
(01:19):
and everyone over here is like, yeah, good strapped, get ready,
get prepared.
Speaker 7 (01:23):
But you know what, it's fine, let's go bring it on.
You want to fight, I'm ready to fight.
Speaker 8 (01:28):
There is a highly trained professional assassin out there right now,
and you have one job.
Speaker 9 (01:42):
Not going.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I'm a firm believer in karma as well as three
times a term.
Speaker 10 (01:51):
I'm saying, I knows that someone in the White House
are going to take their shaw right now and betternomous.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
My doors are open for you.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
If need a safe house.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
I would purchase the clock.
Speaker 7 (02:00):
And if you and I are walking on the same
street and it's darkout and you're a white male, you
have to be white for this to count. Okay, even
if you don't approach me, I will shoot you.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Yeah, I know, just so we're clear.
Speaker 7 (02:13):
Okay, little white boys and more of your little white boys,
I in delete my video.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
I would never do such a thing.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
Okay.
Speaker 7 (02:20):
What I say, I mean unlike most of your friends. Okay,
if your faelis are hurt and you're triggered, it means
you're going to hell.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
That's what it means.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
So I don't really.
Speaker 11 (02:31):
Care how you feel, and I never will.
Speaker 12 (02:44):
Okay, So since Trump won the election, we're cooked up.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
I'm gonna be.
Speaker 12 (02:49):
Leaving the US and I'm gonna be moving to Hawaii.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
So we'll see how it goes, and I'll update you.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Guys now that we're all saying what we're thinking.
Speaker 10 (02:56):
I'm gonna go ahead and say that I think if
you wanted for Donald Trump, you're ugly. I think you're
all freaking ugly, and I think you're dumb as bricks.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
I also not only won't care when all.
Speaker 10 (03:05):
The bad stuff that's gonna happen happens to you, I
actually want it to happen to you. I want your
taxes to go up. I want things to be more
expensive for you. I want you to have a complicated pregnancy.
I want all that bad stuff to happen to you
because that's what you deserve. Also, like, the only silver
lining is it's actually gonna suck for all you Trump
voters way more than it's gonna suck for us Blue voters,
because we actually have educations and good jobs. Y'all are
(03:26):
broke at So it's really gonna suck for you when
he raises your taxes.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Auton, is this cutting off hair. I'm gonna have to
cut it short.
Speaker 13 (03:34):
Being skinny, being hot, and all the things that the
patriarchy wants us to be because clearly they don't give
it about us.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
They're cutting it off because you. That's why I think.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I'm crazy too crazy, just like all the women before
me who are crazy so crazy.
Speaker 13 (03:51):
I will not be giving my money to the beauty
industry anymore. I'll not be giving my money to anyone
that help support misogyny and the patriarchy and keeping women down.
And can women think that we need to look a
certain way or be a certain way? You women can
stop dating man, stop having sex with men, stop talking
to men, divorce your husbands, leave your boyfriends.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Leave them.
Speaker 14 (04:12):
Now that the orange turd has won, we should now
rename America hell because it is going to be hell
on Earth one space trip. Everyone writes away that is
no straight white cys man, so buckle up.
Speaker 15 (04:25):
Hope you freaking Republicans are happy.
Speaker 16 (04:39):
Michael Berry, you know what's said by Orange. We're fit
to come to an end of an era. And it's
not like the Si Bellafield era, and sometime it's different
from the Velma Jim era. And when I say Spears,
I don't mean Sparrow, because that's an entirely different funeral home.
But Larry's Spears have been the mayor of Errange for
(05:03):
many a year now. I don't know if he even
get paid for that. I hope he do because he
did an excellent job. Old pol Jim Goodman, y'all remember him.
He was a controversial police amans back in the day.
And he told me one time, he said, Larry Spears
is a good man, come from a good family, got
a beautiful house and beautiful children. He said, vote for him,
(05:27):
and I ain't never regretted it. The parent is Micael Barrett.
Under this current administrations of Range, you're not gonna get
these streets renamed, did it like he wants to? I
know you want to rename sixteenth Street, which was formerly
called shirleyqu lickor Boulevard, into bum Phillips Avenue or whatever
(05:48):
it is. But it's not gonna happen. You're not gonna
be happy until they renamed lynnen Wood barry Wood.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Micael Berry.
Speaker 16 (05:58):
I have never seen nobody didn't need more affirmation than you,
except a transgender What in the hell? But I'm sorry,
there is no surgery behind it. They can fix it.
No hell tell you, mama as a hyder.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
What's the affirmation?
Speaker 13 (06:16):
Ma?
Speaker 16 (06:16):
That means somebody tell you were something? Are you mean
something to somebody else?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
I don't know.
Speaker 16 (06:21):
It's white people wear.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
It's near here how do you're on the Michael Berry Show.
What you got, my dear?
Speaker 9 (06:28):
I am calling to Bragg on the WISSS group because
of you, Michael Berry. I heard about them and I thought, well,
let me check them out. So missus Dina Almotazeb, and
she said to tell you her name because you don't
like her name because it's so difficult. But she is
(06:50):
so so good. She did my turidium on my left
eye about a week ago, and she is doing my
tuigium on my right in December, and then she is
doing my cataracts and next year she has to wait
three months. But they are all so good. They are
(07:10):
so sweet and so good. I haven't met Jeff yet,
and they said, you just see him walk by one day,
but I haven't been there on the day that he's
actually there, so I haven't got to meet him yet.
But I've met all the other girls and they are superb,
absolutely top notch. I recommend them everywhere. And I told
them I'm going to call you and let you know, well,
(07:32):
so there you have it.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I like to hear the feedback.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
We've partnered with them for well, I've bet twelve thirteen
years and we have had a lot of folks who
had A woman who was seventy five said she could
see again, and I said, like you were twenty, and
she said, no, I couldn't see this well when I
was twenty. I can see like I've never been able
to see before. And at seventy five years old, I
think that's that's a pretty big compliment. Where are you from, Heidi, I.
Speaker 9 (07:58):
Was born in Norway. The girl that was smuggled in
through Germany and behind a suitcase long time ago. You
have that on your on your show, and I'm sixty nine.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Well, you have a delightful, delightful voice and accident, my dear,
delight so much.
Speaker 9 (08:17):
I appreciate you talking about them. And the lady at
the desk said, yea, every day, every day you talked
about them, and I really appreciated day.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Super You know, all this monkey talk reminds me of
an old story. I wasn't gonna tell it because it
includes the word testicles and people get.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Upset about that.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
So instead of testicles, I'm gonna say, whybos sos? In
the joke, a gorilla escaped from the zoo Ramon. He
made his way to a residential area, where he took
up residence in a giant oak tree in a citizen's
front yard. The citizen called the zoo and they sent
a zoo keeper out to the property with a bulldog
and a pistol. What's the plan, asked the homeowner. Well,
(09:02):
I'm gonna climb up in that tree, said the zo
said the zoo keeper, and crawl out on that branch
where the gorilla is. I'll shake the branch until he
falls down. The bulldog is trained to bite his huabos
and not let go, incapacitating him until I can get
down out of the tree and then take care of him. Okay,
replied the homeowner. What's the pistol for? If I fall
out that tree? You shoot the bulldog? I love this
(09:26):
story so much. According to a release by MGM Resorts,
hospitality workers from across the Vegas area gathered to showcase
their skills in a series of challenges. A total of
nine teams competed in a vacuum race, where housekeepers rode
vacuums to clear the track in record time. They also
demonstrated their efficiency and teamwork in a mock relay, bedmaking
(09:47):
competition and tucking sheets relay Las Vegas, Las Vegas hospitality
workers competing in the thirty fifth Annual Housekeeping Olympics, where
they do all of these cool things inside edition with
the story.
Speaker 17 (10:01):
On your mark, Get Set Clean. It's the Housekeeping Olympics.
Teams from the most popular hotels in Las Vegas battle
it out in the annual event.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Bed making is a favorite.
Speaker 17 (10:13):
These ladies and gentlemen can make a bed in near seconds.
The team from Resorts World took the top prize. These
guys are trying to clean up in the mopping obstacle course,
and look at the competition for vacuuming skills. Hey, you
missed a spot, And what the heck is going on here?
Speaker 12 (10:30):
Why?
Speaker 2 (10:31):
It's the buffer pad toss.
Speaker 17 (10:32):
Of course, those pads are used to shine up the
miles of marble flooring all over Sin City. Someone added
a music from Chariots of Fire to.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
This highlight reels.
Speaker 17 (10:44):
Perfect team snag trophies and gold medals, but mostly it's
about dragging rates for the hardest working folks in Las Vegas.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
I love this, and I love the MLK street sweeper,
sweet speech. I love the idea of whatever it is
you do with your time, maybe maybe you're better than this,
and you want bigger things somewhere down the road. Or
maybe this isn't the most glamorous, but the concept of saying,
where I am, in my little corner of the world.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Right here, I'm gonna be the best I can be
at what I do.
Speaker 18 (11:24):
I love that what I'm saying to you this morning,
my friends, even if it calls your lot to be
a street sweeper, going out in sweep streets like Michael
Angelo painted peak, sweep streets like handle and they've told
then composed music streets like.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Shakespeare road torture. All right, sweep streets.
Speaker 18 (11:48):
So well that all the hosts of heaven and Earth
will have to pause and say, He'll live the great street.
Speaker 17 (11:53):
Sweeper who sweat the job.
Speaker 18 (11:55):
Wear. If you can't be a pine on the top
of a hill, be a scub the vallet, But be
the best little scruff on the side of.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
The real Be a bush.
Speaker 18 (12:03):
If you can't be a tree, if you can't be
a highway, just be a trail. If you can't be
the sun, be a star. It isn't by size that
you win or you fail. Be the best of whatever
you are.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
And when you do this, when.
Speaker 18 (12:19):
You do this, you mastered the Lins of Life.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
We were debating internally as a team which TV housekeeper
would win a gold medal at the Vegas Housekeeping Olympics.
The first that came to mind was Alice from the
Brady Bunch. She kept that house immaculate, she cooked all
the meals, and yet she still had time for Sandy Butcher.
Speaker 19 (12:39):
What do you mean an ulterior motives, Sally? I don't
have ulterior motives much as long as I know you're
going bowling on Saturday night.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
That answers my question.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Fine, no, Land does this? Does what else?
Speaker 19 (12:53):
I've called every girl I know that Sam knows mister Brady,
and one of them will admit that he's taking her
to the meat Cutter's ball and he's going to stay
Sam Stay. The only time he's heard that word is
when somebody brought a dead deer to the butcher's shop.
So he's teaking somebody I know it. Oh well, what
(13:13):
difference doesn't make anyway? Dances Tomorrow night, twenty four hours
from now, Sam will be on the dance floor another
twinkling lights, violins, sign.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
Air heady was perfumed, and he'll be starming around the
floor like all the other butchers.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
George Jefferson always joked that Florence didn't do anything, but
that deluxe apartment in the sky was always well kept.
If Florence wasn't doing a good job, why didn't George
fire her? Or why did he fire her only to
rehire her every time with a raise.
Speaker 9 (13:52):
Florence, I've arranged everything.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
You can start working for the Willis says tonight.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
If you want no, she can't.
Speaker 20 (13:58):
George.
Speaker 21 (13:58):
You can't stop Tommy Helen from hiring whoever they want.
Speaker 18 (14:01):
I care about what the same person we're hiding rosbethyere.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Not for the same money.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
You ain't out want me, I want.
Speaker 7 (14:10):
Me across the living raise you got what's.
Speaker 5 (14:14):
Going on here?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
We got us a maid, weezy, we.
Speaker 5 (14:17):
Got us a maids. We got us the nosiest maiden.
Let me tell you a finger two. Now you got
yourself a maid. But I ain't that kind of maid.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
I think a lot of people think of miss Garrett
as running an all girls' school, but some of us
remember as the Drummond's housekeeper on different strokes.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
I love that show.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Not only did she clean the penthouse and cook the meals,
but she had to keep an eye on the ever
mischievous army.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
What are you doing?
Speaker 21 (14:48):
I don't Oh, and what are you planning on doing
with that and nothing?
Speaker 5 (14:57):
I'll rephrase the question.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
Why are you making that nothing into a water bomb?
Speaker 9 (15:03):
Water bomb?
Speaker 16 (15:10):
Water bomb?
Speaker 19 (15:11):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (15:11):
Just ain't no bomb, missus Garrett.
Speaker 6 (15:13):
I'm gonna put the I'm gonna put my fish Abraham
in this while I'm cleaning his bowl.
Speaker 11 (15:18):
Ah, I see, you expect me to believe that you guess.
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Him against green Goldfish.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Arnold, Arnold, Arnold.
Speaker 12 (15:29):
You may be a size eighth, but when it comes
to trouble.
Speaker 5 (15:31):
You're a forty two long.
Speaker 19 (15:33):
All right, you empty that bag this minute, or I'll
have to tell mister Drummond gone.
Speaker 20 (15:39):
All right, missus Garrett, my.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
Hand to the keeper the stone.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
And I had a couple of suggestions. You're in the
break from listeners on Maids from the Old Days. But
the younger folks and I actually know of this one.
Even though I've never really watched the show, I've seen
the bits on it. The younger folks all go to
Seth McFarland's Consuela from Family Guy, and I have to
(16:06):
admit it's maybe the best made character of all.
Speaker 12 (16:11):
Okay, I'm expecting a very important delivery at the house,
so could you please call me if it arrives.
Speaker 2 (16:15):

Let me get my pen.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Oh that's just brilliant.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
I watched this video of a guy I forget what
his name is, it doesn't matter. He's Scambusters or whatever,
and what he does is he messes with Nigerian scammers,
and he gets them all fired up. They're gonna get
the money, but he alters his voice to make it
an old lady. And these scammers. One of the scams
they do is they do a lot of research on
(18:13):
someone and it's elderly people and their grandkid, and so
they'll call and say, your grandson's been arrested. He's going,
I'm the bail bondsman. I can get him out, but
he's done some terrible things. He was drunk, he hit
this woman. She's pregnant, she's die, she's dead. I can
get him out of this, but we're gonna have to
get on this right now. And so he plays the
(18:35):
old woman scamming the scammer, and he's going to bitcoin
him the money, but he keeps reading the number to
He's gonna send the money into that guy's wallet bitcoin watt,
but he keeps getting the number wrong. And then he
says I sent the money and the guy says.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
No, no, that's the wrong wall. He says, it's sets here.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
It went through, but it's gone to the wrong person,
and he just torments him and I can watch this
to no end.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Good Consuelo bit is the is the pledge in uh fabulosa?
And what exactly are your demands?

Speaker 2 (19:39):
What the hell is happening right now?
Speaker 3 (19:45):
Travis County's Sorows backed District Attorney Jose Garza, the child predator,
indicted on nine felony charges, including continuous sexual abuse of
a child under fourteen, six counts of aggravated sexual assault
of a child, and two counts of indecent see with
the child, is given a plea where most of the
charges are dropped and he's given deferred probations, which means
(20:09):
he's not even on probation, which means he basically walks free.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
The story from KVUE at TV in Austin, Travis County.
Family is stunned after an.
Speaker 20 (20:19):
Accused child predator avoided trial in multiple charges. Richard Lee
Bell walked out of a Travis County District court today
after reaching a plea deal with.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Travis County prosecutors.
Speaker 22 (20:29):
Belle was originally indicted on nine felony charges, including continuous
sexual abuse of a child under fourteen, six counts of
aggravated sexual assault, and two counts of indecency with a child.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Prosecutors agreed to dismiss those charges against Bell for his plea.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Of guilty to one count of injury to a child.
Speaker 20 (20:49):
The victim's father says prosecutors did not give him a say.
Speaker 23 (20:53):
I was outraged to find out that this was not
only our first the last flea deal, but this was
our deal, whether I liked it or not.
Speaker 22 (21:07):
Richard Lee Bell, who now lives in Lexington, Virginia, was
sentenced to five years to for probation and ordered to
not have any contact with the victim, her family, or
any other miners. He'll also have to register as a
sex offender.
Speaker 23 (21:22):
I've never learn think any parent would expect somebody to
rock in a jail for doing something like this.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
You would expl continue, you have every right to.
Speaker 23 (21:33):
Expectual abuse in just about every way.
Speaker 22 (21:36):
We reached out to the Travis County District Attorney Jose
Gars's office and asked why Bell was offered a plea agreement.
We have yet to receive a statement.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
You know, you see these Democrats so upset when they're
family member, when bad things happened to their family member.
And you look and they've been voting in Democrat primaries
your whole lives.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
What did you expect?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
You know, I don't understand why people want to hurt
homeless people.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
I've never understood this.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Two men arrested in Tomball for the unprovoked pepper spray
attack on a homeless man. They posted video of it
on a video of it on social media to gain clout.
It went viral, people got angry, and now they've been arrested.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
KPRC TV with the story.
Speaker 24 (22:23):
This video shows a man walked towards a dumpster before
deliberately spring mace into the face of a beloved homeless
man named Jonathan Scarbur.
Speaker 7 (22:32):
I didn't.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Uh belongings out and.
Speaker 5 (22:41):
Out of nowhere got pepper spray.
Speaker 24 (22:43):
The man runs back to the car where he and
his friend are recording laffy as they watched Scarbor suffer
from the burning pain in his eyes. Scarboro's friend rush
to help.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
He was in vain and I said, Johner, you got
up dum he goes.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
I can't.
Speaker 12 (23:01):
I didn't realize how much of bad the situation he
was in.
Speaker 23 (23:04):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 25 (23:05):
He was a he was He was really messed up
because I can't open my eye, and Seater I got
him to the water.
Speaker 24 (23:10):
The video was posted online, but once our KPRC two
news community partner, Grizzies Hood News shared it, Good Samaritans
showed up to the gas station dropping off donations for Scarborough.
Speaker 26 (23:23):
I think what people are doing out here by showing
up and showing support and giving them hugs and encouragement,
that's that speaks highly of Houston.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
What these two.
Speaker 26 (23:32):
Guys did is not reflective of Houstonians were way better
than that.
Speaker 5 (23:35):

burglar brothers.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Described as career criminals.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Have been arrested again.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
They've done it again, and then they've been sentenced to a
whopping twelve days in jail after their latest burglary conviction.
Grown Stoppers Andy Kahn says, how do you go from
an eight year sentence where you actually spent real time
in prison? So you do it later and you practically
get nh thing for a felony conviction? Fox twenty six
(25:03):
with the story.
Speaker 25 (25:03):
We described the Lanis brothers as career criminals.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Would you agree with that?
Speaker 1 (25:07):
No?
Speaker 2 (25:07):
If hands or buff.
Speaker 25 (25:08):
This woman is a victim of the brothers. She asked
not to be identified.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Literally, within about twenty seconds, these guys drove by with
your truck, helped themselves to a bike and a ladder
from our garage, and drove off and it.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Was all caught on tape.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
All on tape, broad dayly.
Speaker 25 (25:25):
In twenty fourteen, Ruben Lanirez was sentenced to eight years
in prison for burglary and aggravated robbery, and in.
Speaker 20 (25:32):
June of twenty five, both brothers pled guilty to felony theft.
They were sentenced to six months in jail.
Speaker 25 (25:41):
We didn't know it on Tuesday, but the Lanies brothers
had already been sentenced.
Speaker 20 (25:46):
I'm not seen someone arrested, charged and convicted in less
than a week.
Speaker 25 (25:53):
The brothers appeared before three thirty eighth Judge Michelle Akin
after pleading guilty. Both brothers were sentenced to just twelve
days in jail. They walked out after six days because
they got credit for time served.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Yeah, they don't seem like a fairly short tentage and
kind of an easy out.
Speaker 20 (26:10):
How do you go from an eight year sentence where
you actually spent a long time in prison to practically
nothing on a felony conviction. That just absolutely blows me away.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
You know, when crime has no real downside, it induces
more people to get into it, and you're going to
see more layoffs.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
It's coming. AI is going.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
To make many people's position redundant. The tasks will be
able to be performed without a human being and being involved,
and in the earlier phases, it'll be the people simply
doing the work that'll be removed and those overseeing it
quality control, direction, inventory, those sorts of things compliance will
(27:02):
keep their job. But in time that to a lot
of that will be wiped out. And that's going to
allow people. That's on Elon musk interview the other day,
and I can't remember the language he used, going to
make Oh, it's going to make work optional. That's what
I said. It's going to make work optional. But I
don't know that that's really what's happening. Because people are
(27:26):
losing their jobs. We refer to them as jobs, but
let's call them what they are. People are losing their
ability to pay their bills, and the corporation is going
to For most corporations, their largest expense is labor, and
they're in a constant battle to shed as much of
(27:47):
that as they can. That's part of the profitability model,
and to the extent for most companies, to the extent
that they tell you, you know, you're a nice person, we're
glad you're here. You know, just let's build morale and
all that. That's just to get more out of you
while you're there. When it comes down to the opportunity
(28:07):
to shed employees and cut that cost, it is going
to be too seductive for almost every company, almost every
company to be able to say no to it. They're
just going to do it, and they're going to justify
it as well. Everybody else is doing it. And I'm
under pressure for profitability, and there is this sort of
(28:30):
ghost dividend that was expected or did not live up
to what the hype was. But that dividend is coming,
it's just not as fast as people thought. If you
make let's just take a simple function. If you make
an automobile and it costs you fifteen thousand dollars and
you sell it for thirty and you could drive the
(28:51):
cost of labor on that automobile down from you know,
six of that fifteen down to one of that fifteen.
That's fills the top of profitability because nobody's lowering prices retail.
Nowhere in the process is anybody lowering prices as a
result of reducing labor costs. They're simply pocketing bigger profits.
(29:15):
And that's why you've seen the stock market rise as
unemployment rises. Usually when companies aren't doing well, they lay
off employees. When they're doing well, they hire employees. So
when the stock market is rising, companies are making money,
unemployment is going down. What we've been seeing is the
(29:37):
stock market rising as unemployment is rising. And that's just
the nature of the next phase of industrialization. You know,
the industry. The Industrial revolution brought people from the farms
into the cities and everything that went with that, and
how life changed as a result of that, and very
(29:57):
few people stayed on the farm. And eventually the industrial
gave way to the post industrial and then you have
things turning digital, but you still in the computer age.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
You still had human beings involved at.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Almost every level, and computers slowly grew in their ability
to perform tasks. And then you had the introduction of
what can be known as artificial intelligence, and that is
the ability to anticipate, the ability to discern, the ability
to make decisions so that it wasn't just garbageing and
garbage out. It was now the ability to respond to
(30:34):
situations that could not even have been anticipated based on
pulling from all that data, which is what a human
being does. It's not to say there won't be any
human beings who will be needed in our economy. It
is to say that the marginal number of layoffs is
going to be significant, and that's going to continue a pace.
You also have an increasing inability of our schools to
(30:59):
graduate people with the life skills.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
You can see that.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
And so what you're gonna have is an increase in
crime and if we don't deal with it,

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
