Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Although something weird's going on because normally, normally, like the
digital clocks will adjust themselves. I mean, I think nowadays
in a lot of homes, I'm trying to think if
I have an analog clock in my house that I
have to adjust. I guess I don't. Everything does it

(00:20):
on its own. But we have these wall clocks in
the studios which are kind of a staple in radio,
and they're just your standard, you know, new non digital
analog clock. They sit in every studio. Generally, they're synced.
They're kind of your last arbiter of what is the

(00:43):
actual time, and it's got a second hand, so you
can use it to hit exact post as we call it,
time yourself for an ad whatever you want to do.
And those things are always like a week later. They
actually get adjusted because really you're not using the hour
as much you using the minute in the seconds hand
and somebody adjusted them.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah, I mean, there's big notifications on them, and I've
seen that it's been the same for what like twenty
eight years or something, right, but you come in and
there's labeling on it. Do not touch this.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Right because it sings to the second, which is really important.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
So and it like somehow changes, like you said, over
the course of a week. So you come in today
and it would typically be like, you know, five hour
off weight, and then like after that, slowly it gets
to like the actual time and you don't touch it,
and today it's normal.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, I just assumed engineering always did it. Eventually it's right.
So I'm thinking like some poor bastard was in here
over the weekend, right at the time change just to
do all of it, and that probably means that there
was some digital issue. So right, because you try to
fill in the right right, something broke going on, right,
So that might be a story at our meeting tomorrow.

(01:57):
I guess we'll find out. So any who, do you
do anything over the weekend other than secretly adjust clocks
in the middle of the night?

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Oh me, yeah you yeah, the greatest milkshake in the world.
What They opened a cookout in weak Forest.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Oh jeez, here we go.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
So we went Friday. Marky sent me a text during
the show that said, oh my god, the cookout is open,
and apparently you'd been open for a month and we
were unaware.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
So you know, there's like you you drive past what
two or no cookouts on your way every day. No
I don't, No, I don't. I mean you couldn't. There's
one capital. That's it.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
That's that's it.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
There's so the capital is the furthest North cookout until
there's play Forest one.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
And now there's one like five minutes away. So it's
a big deal.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
Now there's one on Falls of News. Hold on, there's
one on Falls of News in spring Forest.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
I don't go that way. I don't pass. I'm just
saying feasibly you said, you said me driving home, I'm
saying you're right. All right, there's one now five minutes away,
and it's a big deal. And the line's been wrapped
around the building for like a mark.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Sure, where's it at? The pdkey used to be oh okay, right, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah. Oh that's a yeah. I bet that's a
zoo over there.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
It's amazing. We went on Friday at ten thirty. There
was no line because we're the first Joe Biden go ahead, right,
and then and then we went on Saturday. We woke
up and we said what should we have for dinner today?

Speaker 1 (03:19):
And you woke up and then playing your dinner?

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah we did, and we said let's do let's do cookout.
So we did cook out again and I had the
peach cobbler milkshake and it was the best thing I've
ever had.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
Oh that is good. That is good. Peach cobbler and
then the cheer one.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
It was highly recommended by somebody I really trust on
social media market and I had this conversation. She said,
what what flavoring to kind of said, I said, peach cobbler.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
She said why why why peach cobbler? You said that quickly,
I said somebody I really trust recommended it. And she's like,
who's this person? And I said, Rick Flair's hair. Okay.
She said, you're you're you're taking someone's judgment called Rick
Flair's hair on on from Twitter from X said, yes.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
You've got amazing hair.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Yes, look at that hair. Yeah yeah yeah, look at
that thing.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Look at that mop You never had a peach cop never.
It was amazing, amazing. Yeah, life changing Ross is gonna
get fat. Oh my god, it's great.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
And I immediately went to the gym the next I
didn't eat yesterday and I went to the gym for
like two and a half hours because.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
I used to life Yeah, when I was ross got
ruined by peach cobblers.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
When I was eating this thing, I was like, this
is the greatest thing I've ever had, But I can't
eat anything tomorrow, Like I'm not gonna be like I
don't even want to look at the count.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
What did you get with it? There's a ton of health.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Huge cheddar bacon burger.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
Yeah. Are you gonna go back for a three am shooting? No?

Speaker 2 (04:45):
No, no, no. We realized we're like, dude, We're like
this is like dangerous that this close, So we're gonna
have to like plan this out. But and Mark and
I both came to the same conclusion. We're like, we're
gonna have to go like maybe like once a month,
and that's about it. But it was great.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
I'm talking for the melee. Then I guess maybe you
won't get that. The Wake Forest one, like Cooked Out
can be it could be a whole vibe. This is
a fancy one because it's a sit down. Oh dude,
you saw the double drive through no single Yeah, that
probably makes more sense. And and plus I think if

(05:21):
that was turned into like bar close pandemonium, like Wake Forest,
PD would just get their dui quota on in like
a week two. Is this a really controlled in and
out right there?

Speaker 2 (05:31):
They had people in the parking lot directing traffic. I'm
sure it was like a big deal.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What was what was it? What was
the what was the one that was just nuts? And
I remember, ah, man, what was it? It opened down
in Tampa and I just literally happened to be in
town and I saw it was a Portillo's, doesn't it?
Do you know what a Portillos is?

Speaker 2 (05:58):
Maybe?

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Okay, So Florida's weird, It's not weird. It's actually kind
of cool. Like they have all of these like one off,
random regional restaurants just because you know, it's full of
transplants down there, so you know, you go and like
they have a Cincinnati Chili, Skyline Chili. They just have
like a couple in Florida for no reason other than
there's a lot of Ohio people that have retired down there.

(06:21):
But there's a there's an Italian sub shop called Portillo's,
which is a chain in the Chicago area, and I
guess they're in Milwaukee. And if you're the place, it's
really good. You've never had it, like when they're full
DipEd Chicago beef sandwiches. It's just it's just crack. And
I didn't know that it had opened that day, like
literally that day, and so I see this thing off

(06:44):
the highway and I'm like, is that a Portillo's. That's amazing,
And I've sat in a line for about two hours
just because I realized just like one of my few
chances to get a Portillo's. So I'm down with that man.
But they didn't have another Portillo's, uh, for one thousand miles,

(07:05):
you know, at the cookout. It's the point I'm making.
At some point, the line's long enough at that cookout
that you might as well just drive to the falls
of News one. Do you know what I'm saying, Like,
I don't understand why you sit in the line for
ninety minutes when there's another one twenty minutes away. So
we don't want to leave Wake Forest. We're not I'm
not driving a rally for food.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
I'm not.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
But you'll sit in a line for ninety minutes.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
We're tired, we have a special needs child that is exhausting,
and we're not leaving Wake Forest. We're not doing.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Okay, but but you're but then you're there, it's another
hour of no, you're wasting Okay, all right, so it
was good. That's good, good good. You should have lied
when I asked you where it was, because now it's
just that's just competition now, manly, but.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
We've been counted down, like when we realize that's what
they were putting there. It was. It's the greatest thing ever.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
It wasn't on the neighborhoods thing that your wife reads
all the TIY. Usually those people if there's a new
food kind of thing coming, that's all over those like
Facebook community things. They're so excited. Do you remember when
you remember when they opened an olive garden in North
Dakota and like the U no, no, no, no, dude,
do you remember this story, like the local little neighborhood Fargo.

(08:13):
Like grandma who'd been writing for the paper, it's like
their social section for years. Right, she wrote this piece
about how the olive gardens come in and everyone's just
so excited, right, and some national food ahole from New
York Times made fun of her. It's like, look at
these people excited over at olive garden opening.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
Oh shut them, let people have their joy. Man.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Everybody absolutely destroyed this dude, and then that woman ended
up getting like a book deal and stuff like that,
and it's just like, you don't understand. I mean, I
want to say you obviously you're in on it. Like
the biggest thing that ever happened in the culinary world
when I was a kid is that we got to
McDonald's in Buffalo. Like it was a big deal, and

(08:59):
it was because you had to. They didn't have one
for like thirty some miles. So like, I'm down with that, dude,
Like if you know, even though there is one twenty
minutes away, it's just it's the sheer excitement in the
same way that this old lady was like, and this
olive garden's opening up and it's the most amazing thing
ever right in this little bit in northnak City, in

(09:20):
North Dakota. I'm down with.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
Plase you've got your own little leg taste of Tuscany
there in North Dakota. It's a being yes.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
And they were mocking this woman for essentially being a
flyover idiot, and uh it y it totally backfired.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
I mean, how many people will go to Italy in
their lifetime, right, it's not that big of a number.
But now you have a shot to be a pretty
big number the authentic Italian cuisine of olive gardens.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
So it's a bad deal. You gotta find this story. Dude.
I love that story too, because I felt that in
my bones. How excited this woman was that the olive
garden was had come. Can you imagine not having an
olive garden within probably no, one hundred miles? No, how
do you live like that? And then to h to

(10:02):
just try to decimate this poor woman and then for
her to come out on top was great. Hold on,
let's see this. I remember the story. So people want
to look it up. All right, here we go do
do do do? Yeah? Okay, all right, so uh yeah,

(10:22):
yeah yeah. Marilyn Haggerty, Yeah this is this is a
great story. Eighty five year old columnists became an Internet
sensation after her critique she wrote about a local olive
garden restaurant get three hundred thousand online views. Dude, it's
just so straightfor you. So it was Grand Forks, North

(10:44):
Dakota Marilynd Haggarty's review and the Grand Forks Herald being
held for its simplicity and factual appraisals. Who's the idiot
who made fun of her. That's what I'm looking for. Yeah, okay.
He starts off for a review by calling Olive Garden
quote impressive, so impressed that people were lining up around

(11:07):
the block to eat there. The eighty five year old
went on to say there is a seating matter for
those wanting to wait. However, the decor, best described as
fashion in Tuscan farmhouse style is a new welcoming entryway,
so they were making fun of also the simplicity of it. Ross.
What do you think she said is the best dish

(11:28):
at Olive Garden, this eighty six year old lady.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
I mean, dude, it's so hard to pick. Check it out, Fredo, Yeah,
I would say that's a good choice.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Mm checking out Fredo paired with a nice raspberry lemonade.
Whore's the dude who made fun of her? Though? Dude,
that's the best part of this story, all right? Yeah,
So here's she is. Speaking of ABC News, She said,
yesterday morning the phone started ringing. She realized that there
were people making fun of her, including the reviewer for

(12:01):
The New York Times. However, once the story went viral,
she received a surprise visit from Anthony Bourdaine. I missed
that dude. That's great, all right. This story's doesn't have
the name of whoever made fun of her, but the
dude got absolutely lit up. It was so worth it,
all right. So there you go. Now there's all this

(12:23):
to say that there is a cookout now in wake Forest.
What else you guys got brewing up there?

Speaker 2 (12:29):
To you.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Anything? Because they're building every inch of unbuilding problem.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
I don't, I mean to be honest now that week,
what do you eat? We have a cookout? I think
we've peaked.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Oh no, dude, there's nothing else you want there? Come on,
man's gotta be something.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
You're missing, like their police irons to stop. There are
a lot of them last night. You have no idea why?

Speaker 1 (12:49):
Well, so you know, because people are murdering each other
over peach cobblers probably, Yeah, gotta watch out for that.
All right, Good morning. So there's that Happy Monday coming
up on the show. Oh we have more music for you, Okay,
Well that'll be fun. We'll get some of that because
Lord knows we need that in our lives. MSNBC is

(13:09):
just continuing to lose their mind, and I guess the
worst how do I say the worst? New Protest trend
even worse than the you know, the singings. Oh, and
I'm telling you it's bad. And then Bill and I
was there and some former National Institute of Health workers

(13:33):
and they're all proving my point and it's just just
just really special. Oh Ross, I just saw this this morning,
horror cops. Back to the news, remember, horror cop.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
How's she doing?

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Well, it's an update, and she's got a new job.
She's still horring, I don't know, but she got a
new gig and she was you know what's that she
was so good at it, at policing or horring?

Speaker 2 (13:58):
Horring?

Speaker 1 (13:59):
Okay, well she's not policing anymore, but she does have
a new job. So I guess what do you think
her new job is?

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Did sheldy have it only fans or no?

Speaker 1 (14:11):
I always jove, but that's not it. No, no, no, no,
it's just you know, standard pretty common job. It's not
anything crazy.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
Substitute teacher.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
You're thinking of the movies on the internet, aren't you.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
No, I'm just thinking like, what could be the worst
possible thing? Why would that be the worst possible because
I don't want around kids.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
What about barely legal like college kids or step step
maybe she's got a step son, right, I hear that's popular. No,
she's a pharmacist tech, pharmacy tech, so not a pharmacist.
But you know the other people work back behind there.
She's one of them, so not with your kids. She

(14:53):
is handling your pills though, So I don't know she's
behind glass what she could do back there. Although there's
a bit of a rep right kind of the hairstylist nurses,
pharmacist tech rep. I don't I don't necessarily subscribe to it.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Is there is there one?

Speaker 1 (15:12):
Is there a hairdresser, nurse, pharmacist tech rep?

Speaker 2 (15:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Really?

Speaker 2 (15:16):
Yeah for real?

Speaker 1 (15:17):
And it was unawareness you Oh yeah, I know, I
just someth My hurt is that I don't know, I
don't know, especially hairdressers with like stripper names. I'm not
I'm not profiling here. I'm just saying that's you know,
it's a it's a meme right there. So anyway, so, yeah,
she's a pharmacist tech. So if you go to the

(15:37):
CVS and I find her, it didn't say where she works.
But anyway, all right, uh look at that six twenty three,
take a break, be right back. Josh Allen's got a
few money now, because the Bills just gave him all
the money, Now, why do they give him additional one
hundred and thirty million over four years?

Speaker 2 (15:56):
That's the number. I'm sure it's not enough.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Well, I mean, obviously it's enough if he'd agreed to it,
so like they found a number there. So yeah, he's
gonna he's gonna get paid. I'm not go I may
not be able to watch football next year if the
Vikings do something stupid with a former Packers quarterback, you know,
because that's our thing, that's what we do.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
So yeah, but think about it this way. If they
signed him, that's free ayahuasca for everyone.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Well yeah, yeah, you go to ayahwasa wouldn't that be
a great promotion give every everyone's hallucinating, didn't some They
had some dude over the weekend who was at a
game and he caught They had like, you know, they
had like a fan thing and the guy had to
catch like this really long kick or something. I think

(16:45):
it was a soccer thing, and he did, and then
he told everyone he was tripping on mushrooms. So like
it could happen. There's some weird story just happened to see. Yeah,
there the Vikings.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Are there was there was a picture back in the
day that threw like the no hitter, and he said
he was like high on like Elis d he throw
a no hitter.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
He threw a perfect game, perfect game against the Twins.
Is did you know that was against Twins when you
brought that out? Oh? Yeah, it was David What was
he's a picture for New York. David was a David Wells.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
Right now, I'm thinking of a different guy. No, it
must have happened more than once. I'm thinking of a
different guy.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
Thanks for that, Thanks for that.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
Not against the Twins, it was same in general.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
No, but it was against the Twins. The guy who
did it against Twins, Yeah, he was. He was really
drunk or high. And I remember because they did like
a whole little uh. I think they did a thirty
at thirty on the on the whole thing. And it's
just embarrassing. It's just like, of course he did it

(17:52):
against the team that you like. Yeah, David Wells, here
we go. David Wells for a perfect game while drunk.
They were known as the hangover game. In fact, he
was so hammered he took ten trips to the bathroom
during the game because his his stomach was just losing it.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
Yeah know, this is different. This is June twelfth, nineteen seventy.
Doc Ellis pitched a no hitter for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
I got you, well, under the influence of lsd Well.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
I didn't who was the Who was the pitcher for
the Mets who admitted to basically pitching high a bunch?
Was it Dwight? It was Dwight Gooden, right, remember he
had like a substance abuse issue where he got suspended.
I think who was the other one to get really
ho is? Do you remember Darryl Strawberry? Yeah, yeah, Ryl

(18:42):
Strawberry was Yeah, so it could be done. I just
think you don't aim for it. Oh man. All right,
So over the weekend it wasn't all peach cobbler shakes
and whatever you did. It was also another protest up
in Washington. Now this time it was a science protest, which,

(19:03):
if you remember during the first Trump thing, that was
like the second big protest because they had the pink
hat ladies first, right, and then they had the science one.
So Bill Nye shows up, who, by the way, is
really into Nazis. I guess because he did the hand
thing and I don't make the rules, so that's weird.

(19:24):
But they did have their own sing along, as you
do with these things. So just to revisit some famous
ones real quickly this morning, remember this banger.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
Which side are you all right?

Speaker 1 (19:38):
Love that? Which side?

Speaker 2 (19:40):
Are you all wide?

Speaker 1 (19:43):
Are you power of the thousand suns? But yeah, keep
on right right in this one? Who can forget? We're
gonna have to do a fake time Life music collection song?
I think, oh in this one, this one here, so

(20:05):
I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, Casey, how can
it get any better than those right there?

Speaker 2 (20:11):
Huh?

Speaker 1 (20:13):
I mean perfection achieved not once, not twice, but three times.
And I would say to you leave it to the scientists.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
This played a lot of mine. I'm doing at this
lay a lot.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Mm hm, oh yeah, a lot, all right, making your
own making your own science people, because that's just the
regular song. What you got?

Speaker 3 (20:47):
Science lights the way science light so much?

Speaker 1 (20:53):
Oh well, I see what you did there, Okay, So yeah,
I don't know, man, do you have a favorite Ross?
Do you have a favorite of those we got? We
had quit?

Speaker 2 (21:01):
I'm a fan of the entire collection.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, I think it's really I think you put a
like a mixtape together for that person you love, like
we used to back in the nineties and eighties. You
imagine you make that mixtape for the person you're interested.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
Did you ever do that?

Speaker 1 (21:17):
Of course?

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Who did?

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Dude? Absolutely? And uh I was. I was good at it.
I was good at also catching where the rams didn't
get talked over because the DJ.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
Right, you know, I made one for a girl once,
Kylie Smith, she lived down the street. Oh wow, But
I don't know. But most of the time, like what
I would do is I would record them off the radio,
but I would record the DJs.

Speaker 1 (21:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
It was super weird because most kids did not want that,
and I was like, oh, you hate it.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
When the dude started talking, I was like, oh, I
got to hit the post. Ah, but these are right here.
This is just this is this is great, except again,
turn into a Nazi rally because once you're hand goes
up at the wrong angle, you're in the Nazi danger
zone there. So that's awkward. But it still wasn't the

(22:08):
most annoying protest over the weekend. So now this is
the new thing, right, you got to figure out all
the ways to be obnoxious. You get all the ways
to go disrupt anything, even if it's something with a
public forum section where you could absolutely get up there
and you could make whatever argument you wanted. That's not

(22:29):
what it's about. What it's about is stopping people from
being able to do any discussion. The Heckler's veto, as
it's called if you don't know what that is, the
Heckler's veto is where you have something and somebody shows
up and they stop the ability to do it right.
Arguably they'd be trespassing right, or they're outside the bounds.
This isn't a free speech issue. Doesn't mean you get

(22:51):
to disrupt people. And rather than punishing the disruptors, what
universities will do, or certain venues or sometimes times police
is they'll go all right, we're all out of here,
and it's like, well, we weren't doing anything right. They're
the ones over here causing a public disturbance. And then
misguided public officials will say, well, the fact that you're

(23:13):
here is causing them to be here and causing the disturbance,
which is this weird circular logic called the Heckler's veto,
and it's repugnant and universities were really the ones who
were most notably doing this when a conservative speaker would
show up at a predetermined thing and then moonbats would
show up and they'd be like, well, I guess we

(23:34):
can't have the thing anymore, and it's like, nope, that's
not how it works. And you know, professional activists thrive
on this garbage because they get away within a lot
of times it's wink wink, nod nod with whoever's in charge.
So what is the most obnoxious thing I've seen in
just about forever? Activists? Macarena? Oh yeah, you thought you

(23:59):
thought the little earworms were bad enough with this insanity, right,
these people and they can't kept my one person from
fringing sing, Oh that's painful, all right, Sorry, you think
that's annoying. So now activists are showing up and their
maccarina in the middle of things. And it can be

(24:23):
these congressional forums, it could be a speaking event, it
could be a public hearing of some sort a school
board meeting, and then they just show up and disrupt
the thing by doing the macharina, and then fake people
on the internet can go I can't believe they arrested
somebody for doing the macharena like that. Somebody was just

(24:45):
standing there on the corner doing the little dance and
you know, and the SWAT team showed up and then
they just make these disingenuous arguments. But no, this is
what we're dealing. We're going on.

Speaker 4 (24:56):
Behind the scenes here that you can't see on soon
when I came in, they were trying to prevent me.
The transactivists are trying to for FENTI me from even
buying up. And what a lot of people on zoom
can't see is my sign and it says cis equals
can't imitate sex. And I've said before that I am
I'm a female athlete.

Speaker 1 (25:15):
I'm here to speak up or.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
The female athletes who are intimidated by this nonsense.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
It's occurring behind me. Okay, mob of activists repeatedly hijacked
Community Education Council meetings in Manhattan and dance the macarena
to disrupt a meeting and protest those opposed to boys
playing girls sports. So they're just like they're not even
allowing any of the discussions, any of it to happen.

(25:42):
And and they're just so proud of themselves because it's
just so clever. These are not these are not serious people. Okay,
these are not They're doing that during school board meeting. Yeah,
that what you needed in your life this morning, right there.

Speaker 2 (26:01):
I'm not gonna lie. I was sort of excited to
hear about the protest because finally there's a pop culture
reference that I understand because it's so old.

Speaker 1 (26:09):
Well, I mean, you confuse. I guess you could do
a Y M c A.

Speaker 2 (26:12):
Right, Like, finally the thing I know.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Yeah, you just have to be going.

Speaker 4 (26:17):
On behind the scenes here that you can't see on
soon when I came in, they were trying to prevent
me the transactivist or lying. And what a lot of
people can't see is my fine cisms in the tate fact.
And I've said before that I am I'm a female athlete.
I'm speak up or the female athletes. We are intiminated

(26:40):
by the very high.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
Ross.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
I need a club gig, buddy, we blend all this over.
Oh that'd be amazing. So there you go. That and
what may be that might be have been the most
obnoxious segment of radio we've ever done. And I am
I am truly truly proud of our effort. All right,
coming up secret service greaseome. Dude, So we got that

(27:11):
MSNBC's discussion over the weekend, and dude, what happened to Columbia.
I know they've been threatening this and I'm like, are
you gonna be able to do that? They are not
screwing around at at the federal government level, dude, this
is this is crazy and we got you gotta talk
about cannibals because you know why not anyway, six forty seven,

(27:34):
hang on on how to get now? This is okay?
Whatever real quick on this. Oh, some of you're still
mad for the music montage. Well, you know what, I
don't make the news. I just share the news. Ross
just stubs in the news. You're just here for the news,
and that's the news. Bill Nye and former nh NIH
employees and some current ones. Which is weird because they

(27:58):
were doing the sing in middle of the day Friday,
when you know a lot of people were working. So anyway,
let me go over there, let me go over some
other dudes. So this is so this is like semi
pro I don't know how you describe this. It's like
it's not amateur, but it's not the main soccer league.

(28:21):
This is over in Germany, so obviously that's their jam
supposed to be like this, be like a minor league
baseball team. They're still getting paid, but it's not the
big boys. But it doesn't matter. So two teams are
playing and within a few minutes in the first first
part of the soccer match, there is a penalty call

(28:43):
that goes against one of the teams. And you know
how these things go, right, the fans, the fans for
this team are booing. The other team are like, yay, right,
and a yellow card comes out and whatever. And I
think that they were doing this is just before it started.

(29:03):
They had been some sort of just they do like
ID checks on players before the game. It's just a
weird procedural thing in soccer, and there had been some controversy.
So everyone's already salty. Okay, So the referees get upset
with one of the players for the other team, and
all of a sudden, you see this kid run onto

(29:25):
the field and run over the referee and bite the
ref and it's it's it's one of the plates. That
player's kid, who had been watching from the sideline. I
guess didn't like how dad was getting dealt with. So
he runs on the field and bites the referee in

(29:46):
the boys.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
Oh my god. Yeah, now I'm unfamiliar with the sport.
What kind of flag does that get? You?

Speaker 1 (29:53):
Well, in this case, it got the match called, so
they stopped it the game, yeah, well the batch game,
but yeah, yeah, yeah, because the referee just literally got
bit and required medical attention, so he's not really in
a refereeing mood at that point. And since this the

(30:14):
kid who bit him is not just some random person
but rather a family member of one of the players,
they called it off. You know, Now, I guess they're
going to have to reschedule it. But doesn't look like
this player will be able to take parts.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
Athletes, like some of them have their thing, you know
what I mean, and like, you know, maybe this will
become his thing, Like what do you mean his thing?
Maybe his thing will be when you, you know, when
you do something wrong. My kid comes out in the and.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
Then subconsciously the referees like, man, we probably shouldn't call
anything on that dude. That of the referees will have
like you just hear the metal right, metal chastity belt,
weird torture things from the look at the kid, You're like,
ha ha.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
Just imagine the commentary where they're like, oh, here comes
a little Timmy on the veil and the crowd's going nuts.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Yeah. I mean it's like the member. It's like the
dog that gets to retrieve the bad at the Greensborough
Minor League games, right, everyone goes to see the dog.
I can't remember the dog's name now, but he's like
everybody loves that damn dog. We've done like station nights
over there. I love that damn dog.

Speaker 2 (31:17):
Love. They're gonna feel the same way about Young Master
Timothy whatever his name is.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
Yeah, By the way, the game doesn't it doesn't say
how old the kid is. I have a lot of
questions because how much weirder is if if if the
kid's sixteen versus five? Right, if he's five, you're like,
you know, that's still whether you're biting your brothers and sisters.
So if this guy's kid is like sixteen, this whole
story changes horribly. But it doesn't say here, so I

(31:42):
don't know. He describes him as a little kid, so whatever.
And if you're Stefan Taylor, man, like, are you too
traumatized to officiate soccer? Anymore. You just you go that,
you go for the next one. All of a sudden
you start breaking out the cold sweat. There's some kids
that are doing a damn thing that proximity, so you're nervous.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
Some things you can understand the PTSD involved, and you
think that'd be one of them.

Speaker 1 (32:08):
Yeah, So do you ever get like if you ever
get messed up by a particular.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
Dog, I would say, you know, driving in a car
accident and you're getting somebody you know, just drives into
the back of you and like for the rest of
you in the next few months, you're like paranoid, it's
gonna happen again.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
Same thing. You come to stop like you're just looking
behind you and stopping short. Oh yeah, absolutely. Meanwhile, this
guy walks by a group of school kids. He just
he just cups himself. Kids like like, why is that
guy grant? Why is that guy touching himself? What's going on?
They don't know, they don't know your backstory. This is
why you don't assume. Okay, people loving this, let me

(32:41):
give you some context here. And I understand why this
is funny. I get that, but it's it's not some
scandal and it's and it's something that really isn't going
to impact people very much for five minutes from now.
But let me explain so as you can imagine, if
you put together every single website that is part of

(33:06):
the federal government or there's part of organizations NGOs and whatnot,
who find themselves bound to some of the requirements by
the by the you know, the administrative part of government,
the White House, the Executive Branch. UH, there's there's a
lot of leeway if you're a federal contractor where the
President of the Executive order can flex on you. And

(33:28):
that's why you always see things like where Biden's like,
if you want to be a contractor, you have to
have a h you gotta have a DEI program, like
they were doing that during the Biden administration. So when
it comes to all of the websites, all of the
databases of information, everything that's out there, like the like
the federal government, it's it's an insane amount of real

(33:51):
estate that you're talking about. And they have, we have
demonstrated within the worker ranks this propensity for being sneaky
and dishonest in some cases because you don't want to
follow what your boss is saying right, these federal employees
are like, oh, you guys need to get rid of DEI,

(34:13):
and then they just change job titles, so they just
move somebody's title over, and it's clear they're trying to
ignore the extent of what's going on. You see the
swamp and the bureaucracy not doing what they're being told
and doing so in a manner that if you ever
pull that as an employee in the private sectory to

(34:33):
be fired. But they don't care. They don't care, so
they're having to get creative to accomplish things. And one
of the things they're trying to accomplish is to remove
all things DEI. And so the way that they have
to go about it is they have created software to
go through because obviously the software can much more thoroughly

(34:57):
and quickly go through all of these websites, and then
you have to have the software have the ability to
find and flag the DEI stuff, and then once it's flagged,
the process is for a human to go in and
review it. So there's a very short window where whatever
it is may not be available until a human can

(35:20):
review it. And just like anything else, AI and computer
programs are not human and so they can only do
what you tell them to do. They can't necessarily make
those fine discernments. And so there are a couple reporters
who literally just this is their storylines, and they look

(35:42):
how dumb they are. They took this thing offline for
about an hour and then it comes back on and
they're like, oh, see what they're doing. They're just a
bull and a china shop, like they're making some point.
And then for an hour when you weren't able to
go on the the Birthing persons in information page because

(36:04):
a keyword popped, then they'll run and write a story.
So case in point, it was the DoD's turn. So
they went through and they had a bunch of keywords
looking for DEI related stuff, and they found a bunch
of it, and then they would, you know, human review
it take offline what was pure fluff and unnecessary to

(36:24):
accomplish the mission of the DoD, and if it was
incorrectly flagged, they put it back online. So one of
the keywords they use is gay. Now can you think
of why or where in military related news databases and
archives where you might see the word gay, but it

(36:46):
has nothing to do with DEI. Programs, and there's a
pretty big one if you think about it from a
military context standpoint. And so information pages about the Anola
a right, the bomber that dropped the Hiroshima bomb. It

(37:07):
was the first one. We're literally momentarily images that were
unaccessible or inaccessible on the DoD website. And everyone was
clowned an ap, Yahoo, The Daily Beast, Guardian Military removing
and Nola Gay photos for violating DEI rules. But Nola
Gay runs a foul of pentagons DEI. Here's the deal.

(37:33):
Who over the weekend for like two hours when this
thing was done, was their whole day was ruined because
they couldn't look at an a Nola Gay picture on
a DoD website. Nobody And it's dumb, and they understand
exactly what's going on. A human didn't go in and
do that. It was literally a keyword search. That's it.

(37:55):
And then the materials were reviewed by humans and put
right back online. But the article trump is a racing
history picks of World War two bomber flag for removal
because gay is in the name. Here we go. This
is from Yahoo Gay Hiroshima bomber, Female and black soldiers

(38:18):
being erased in shocking pentagon Dei Purge. One of the
soldiers last names was Gay happened to be a black soldier.
So yeah, this is the pearl clutching over the weekend
because somebody couldn't look at a photo, by the way,
which is readily accessible in about a billion other sources
and is a public domain photo, so it's not even

(38:41):
a copyright issue. Yeah, and by the way, if you
want to go see the Enola Gay, it's at the
Aviation Museum in DC. And they didn't like wheel it
out of there. It's still there, so everyone just needs
to calm down. But hey, you know, it makes makes
for a good freak out story, all right eight eight
nine three four seven eight seven four. Let me go

(39:04):
back to this. So they had a little they had
a little problem over the weekend at the Warriors Pistons game.
And no, it was not one of the Pistons players
going into the stands and punching fans, so a little different. Instead,
this was in this in the Golden State Warriors Pistons

(39:27):
in Golden States in the Bay Area. I guess if
you didn't know that. So all of a sudden, during
the first quarter, the fire alarm stood going off, and
so it's really and then they have like the jumbo
tron and all the big screens where it's like fire alarm,
fire alarm, attention, the fire alarm reported, and so everyone
had to evacuate. Man, it sounds like it had been

(39:52):
a false alarm. I have a question. So when they
say false alarm, is they mean somebody pulled it? Because like,
that's probably a bad idea to have an alarm that
random people can pull. I'm actually surprised too that drunk
sports fans when their teams have been losing haven't randomly
pulled fire alarms before, because that seems like something drunk

(40:15):
sports fans would do. So I don't know what's set
it off, but imagine the choice that you have to make. Right,
Do you stay inside and watch terrible basketball, which apparently
is what's happening because they've lot NBA has lost half
their ratings, or and potentially burn up in a fire

(40:35):
because you don't know that it's a false alarm. Or
do you go outside and get looted and then pooped on?
Like which one? Do you do? Stay inside, burn up
in a fire and watch terrible basketball? Or go outside
get defecated? On and then looted. These are the decisions
that people have to make in the Bay Area. Ross,

(40:57):
what do you think pooped on and looted or burned
death inside watching bad basketball?

Speaker 2 (41:02):
I'd probably stay inside.

Speaker 1 (41:03):
All right? So Ross is going to self immolation.

Speaker 2 (41:06):
Just because we've seen this numerous times at the radio
station when the alarms go off and you have like
you know we've had in the past, like new Newer
morning shows like leave like, oh the alarm's coming off.
We have and I did we just stay here?

Speaker 1 (41:18):
But we're just so cynical. Yeah, yeah. But also that's
the other thing too, you know what I'm saying though,
Like I think that it's just a bad idea to
be able to have random people pull fire alarms at
sports venues because like you've seen what drunk sports fans
will do. So if your team's getting their ass kicked,

(41:40):
remember the members of Congress whose teams were getting their
asses kicked have pulled fire alarms. Excuse me, what they
thought opened the door? Right? So I think that I
doubt that you can just randomly on.

Speaker 2 (41:53):
We were watching that old show Jack Ryan with Jim
from the office, right, and it's the final I don't
want to spoil too much if you haven't seen it,
but there's a scene like towards the end where there's
a scene and the bad guy is running away from
Jack Ryan, and he's running like he's running through a
crowd of fans coming like into or out of a
Nationals game, so like a baseball game, and he take

(42:15):
we were watching this last night. He takes this guy's hat.
The terrorist to try to you know, fit in just
takes this dude's hat in his flag and starts running
like his national flag league puts it around his shoulders.
And I said to Mark, you said, this is the
most unrealistic thing I've ever seen, because that guy would
have kicked his ass.

Speaker 1 (42:33):
Oh yeah you don't.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
Yeah, you don't steal a dude's jersey or his hat
or his flag at a sporting event. You're gonna get
your ass kicked. And the guy just stood there like
dark ards. You'd like, no, it would come on.

Speaker 5 (42:45):
No.

Speaker 1 (42:45):
This is this is modern American sports where fans of
the same team will get drunk and beat each other up. Right,
Boston Bruins four hundreds level series, it's just Bruins fans
beating up drunk Bruins fans, it's amazing. So yeah, and
then the pulling the fire alarm thing, uh no, because

(43:05):
that's like, can you imagine if you could do that
and like, let's say that, let's say that Mahomes is losing, right,
and then some cheese fan just can't take it.

Speaker 2 (43:15):
Boom, pull the that alarm be going off all the time,
or it'd be like in Congress when they were trying
to pass that bill and the dude like, you.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
Know, pulls. I was saying, that's yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's what I was mentioning. He's open, he's opening the door.
So like, I'm pretty sure you can't just go to
a random sports venue and pull it, but maybe you can.
Maybe the fire marshall would require that. But then how
has it not happened? Right, considering how awful fans can
be to other teams from time to time, and if

(43:42):
your NC state, you could have pulled it all year
not had to fire Kevin Keats. So that's that's whole
fan Don't understand that, man, but it is what it is.
All right, seven seventeen. We'll be back in just a
few hang on, the response from this guy is pretty
create a British serial killer known as uh Hannibal the
Cannibal Modsley, also known as the brain Eater. Oh those

(44:06):
are some good nicknames, right, those are because remember there's
there's good there's good criminal nicknames, and then there's others
that clearly you didn't want to be that guy and
probably you probably would get upset. But this guy's his
monikers are the brain Eater and Hannibal the Cannibal. Now
why because he ate some brains. That's the thing he did.

(44:32):
Let's see, between nineteen seventy four nineteen seventy eight, Modsley
accused and convicted of four murders, in each case eating
part of or no, I'm sorry, you only ate one
person's brains. We did eat a part of all of
the people. He worked his way up to brain. It

(44:53):
doesn't matter, that's not why we're doing the story. So
this dude's in like prison inside of prison you see
in a movie where he in like an old glass
cell that's in the middle of a supermax. He doesn't
interact with anybody and as a result, he's got some
stuff in his cell to keep him busy, books, music,
even has a video game system and a TV which

(45:16):
I guess you can have over in the UK. I
don't know how it works here in the US. Can
you have a video game system in prisons? Some states
will let you have TVs, but I don't know the rules.
But unfortunately, he had some behavioral issues and so the
prison has clamped down and according to the story here,
when he was off, I guess they'll let him go

(45:37):
shower or whatever. He came back and he had been
he had some thing with one of the officers, and
it escalated to the point where they decided that they
were going to punish him. So they removed all his books,
his music, and his PlayStation. And so now here's the story.

(45:58):
The British serial killer, so upset over the loss of
his video game system, has apparently started holding a hunger strike. So, uh,
they won, right that You didn't think this through, Buddy.
You're in prison for eating people's brains, and so because

(46:19):
you're upset that they took your PlayStation, your threat is
that you're not going to eat like you've been reformed. Now,
that's what they wanted you to stop doing because you
were eating people. Also, what video games do you think
prisoners like?

Speaker 2 (46:35):
Yeah, I was wondering what system they had, because in
the article, if I'm looking at it right, it looks
like every picture they show is a PlayStation too. Yeah, PlayStation.

Speaker 1 (46:42):
I don't think that's from in the cell. It's just
like yeah, yeah yeah, But I mean, like, like, what
do what video games do? Prisoners? Like? Probably Grand Theft? Right?
Can you imagine not being good at it but being
a super Max prisoner? No? Thank you?

Speaker 3 (46:58):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (46:58):
What's the what was the one? Oh that Customers Revenge?
Probably pretty good at that.

Speaker 2 (47:03):
This is a great time to pimp the game I'm
working on, Cannibal Simulator.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
When you're working with AI, you're making your own game.
What are you doing? It? Just just what I have
no idea? Oh okay, so you just you really only
got the title thus far, all right, probably.

Speaker 2 (47:18):
Which I just I just came up with like two
seconds ago.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
So oh wow, it's gonna be great trademark that bad boy?
What is it gonna be great? Or is it gonna
be like a lot of stimulators where they sound great
and then you're like you're downloading.

Speaker 2 (47:31):
Yeah, that's my problem with a lot of them, because
there are like prison simulator games and I've tried those before.
Like for like two seconds, and then I'm like, I'm out,
what do you do?

Speaker 1 (47:38):
Are you the guard or.

Speaker 2 (47:40):
It's like sim city, So you're like the wardens. So
you have to you have to build the prison, and
then you have to make sure everything is like where
it's supposed to be. And then you have to make
sure the guards are doing their jobs, and you have
to make sure that the mood of the prisoners and stuff.
You gotta try to avoid riots.

Speaker 1 (47:52):
Is there like a is there a super advanced Epstein level?

Speaker 2 (47:55):
I don't know. I didn't get that far. You got
to keep the cameras working and oh man, all the
cameras out.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
Oh again. While our moonbats were in Washington, d C.
With Bill Nye doing hitlerle Hyle Hitler things with his hands,
I mean, I don't think he was meaning to, but
again I don't make the rules, so you know, guilty. Uh,
they were, you know, up there with new protest songs

(48:21):
that I'm torturing you with this.

Speaker 3 (48:22):
Mom right, just playing a lot of min yeah right,
and they're also they're that and the macarena one.

Speaker 1 (48:33):
But over in France they had a bunch of feminists
and and let me tell you when they have feminist
protests where they're topless over in the Europe. You know,
I'd say about twenty five percent or a strong maybe,
as long as they don't talk to me, you know,

(48:55):
because they're they're they're obviously leftist lunatics. But like there's
no no, nobody's four bills, nobody's in a mobility scooter,
like Ross is because he ate thirteen peach cobblers over
the weekend because a cookout opened by his house and
apparently it's the greatest thing ever. And it's a sit
down cookout. Did you even know those existence?

Speaker 2 (49:14):
Five minutes away? Five and it's a sit down? How
fancy is that? Even though it's existed.

Speaker 1 (49:20):
Yeah, that's like, you know that is that's that's a
testament to the vanilla news of or I should say
the safety ness, like the trust factor of opening an
awake forest, because let's just face it, any of the
any of the cookouts that are bar like you know,
a post bar gathering cookouts, you can't do a sit
down there. There'd be incidents. That's just like a waffle

(49:42):
house at three in the morning. But you know, you
guys are so safe up there. They're like, yeah, we'll
have a sit down cookout inside. What does that even
look like inside? Because it's just the whole menu is
pandemonium to start, and.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
You get up there and they had people like, you know,
making sure the directing traff and then you had another guy.
We're like, what's this guy doing? And we get up
to him and because the problem is you do have
some people have never been to cookout before, and if
you haven't been a cookout before, you get up to
that menu and it can be overwhelming. There's so much
on it. And then you're like a tray, what is
the tray? What is happening? A double tray? What the heck?

Speaker 1 (50:15):
So two meals?

Speaker 2 (50:16):
Yeah, So you have the one guy directing traffic, like, hey, idiot,
go this way, and then you have another guy who's
like handing out photo copies of the menu so you
can like have your order ready by the time you
get up to the to the speaker.

Speaker 1 (50:30):
You know what it's like. It's like it's like when
you're in the airport the security line and inevitably the
person in front of you who's never seen an airplane before, Right,
how does that happen? By the way, how many of
you are going to show up to rdy you when
I'm already running late, because whatever, But I'm responsible, I know,
the drill shoes off. If it's the big trays, you
leave everything in your bag and then you have to

(50:51):
make sure the bag's in the big trays. And if
it's the little tray, right, laptop electronics out, not all
of them, but most of them. But it's not rocket science.
And yet what do I get? I get, like the
look at that. It's a it's a band of monks
that haven't left their monastery ever.

Speaker 2 (51:07):
Right, there is a history, Yeah, there is a story.
Maybe you saw it like a few weeks ago. It
was in some different country and there was some poor
woman who had never been in an airplane before, you know,
and you know you were. You check your bag, and
you give them your bag, and you put the bag,
you know, behind him, and it goes on the wheelie thing,
right yeah, yeah, yeah, they got the check bags. But
I'm aware that it's the poor bastard got on.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
That Oh no, oh no he didn't what he got
on the conveyor thing.

Speaker 2 (51:35):
With the lug.

Speaker 1 (51:36):
Yeah no, no, I know. I don't write it right
over by the uh by where the United Counter is.

Speaker 2 (51:43):
No, I'm not saying r to you. This was a
story that was in National.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
Oh no, no, no, I'm just saying I know exactly the
thing because I'm visualizing it right now and I can't
fathom getting on that thing. Whoops, did it work? No?
Did it work? I told I told you. It was
that the Bwire b w I, which is Baltimore's airport.
It was, it was I can't remember what the event was.
I was in DC and I couldn't get a ticket

(52:09):
into Reagan or Dulles for under like nine million dollars.
So the other alternatives you can fly up there. And
two of the other people from Raleigh were going up
to it, so we got we carpooled a van. But
when I was leaving, the day I was leaving, got
to the airport, got through security, went in. They have
they have the soft shell crab thing, this chain up

(52:31):
in Baltimore and they have two in the airport there.
And if I'm in that airport, I'm gonna go get
me some of the crab there, right, because that's what
they're known for. And all of a sudden, I'm leaving
with my delicious sandwich, which by the way people will
take on a plane that I have a problem with.
So I'm just gonna go eat it out in like
the main concourse here and get ready, and all of

(52:52):
a sudden, every all the alarms start going off, right,
what the hell is going on? Well, I had already
made it to the plane and was in the we
were boarding the plane, and all of a sudden, like
everyone's got to get off the plane, and then everybody
in that concourse had to exit security, and we didn't

(53:14):
know what was going on initially, right, what the hell
is happening here? So some old dude who apparently hadn't
flown since D Day or something, walked out of backwards
out of a TSA security thinking he was going to
find a restroom. That's what it turned out to be,
because when we're rechecking, everyone's asking the TSA guy like,

(53:35):
what the hell happened? And we know they thankfully because
everybody had to leave, they held the flight, but it
was just it was pandemonium. But no, this guy was walking,
and you know, if you walk, once you get to
the other side of TSA security, you would never in
a million years turn around and go, oh, that looks
like the exit and he walked backwards through a metal

(53:56):
detector and it set it off, and they're just like
he didn't know. He thought the bathrooms are over there,
So like, I don't I don't even understand this, man,
I don't even understand.

Speaker 2 (54:06):
Sometimes still focused on your uh you're you're the visual
of the showlin monks on the plane?

Speaker 1 (54:11):
Never I just I tried to pick it.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
What are they doing on the wing? How is the.

Speaker 1 (54:18):
Kids that nobody's monitoring? And it's just like, how how
are we here? And I know some of you're gonna
call up and you're like, oh, you need what you
need to do is you need to get the clear? No,
I don't leave me alone. No, no, no, not falling
for that, but yeah, yeah, yeah, so that's what I assume.
It's probably like that. Uh anyway, so while those protests
are going on, long way A long story short, Well,

(54:41):
those protests are going on. Okay, Russ, just send me
the story. How do you get on that? How do
you think that's the way into where the planes are
now at that point unless you weigh fifty pounds your
oversized luggage, so you get charged that. I have so

(55:03):
many questions, but yeah, usually the European topless protest especially
is the further you get, the closer you get towards
Eastern Europe, usually they're more visually appealing, like, that's something
here in the US. We really got to step our
game up. Have you ever, Ross, you ever seen a
story in the stack where it's like, you know, topless
feminists protested at Berkeley, right where you're like, oh, let

(55:23):
me click on that so I can see what's up there.

Speaker 2 (55:25):
Now, that's a lesson learning. You should not do that.
Do not click on the link.

Speaker 1 (55:29):
No, don't do it in a video. Don't do it.
They're all like, you'll look like Shrek. But that's an
insult to Shrek. Oh, it's usually horrible. So you know,
good job over there. Now again until they start talking,
where's this other story I saw? Since we're just talking
about nonsense, I got some non nonsense, so I get

(55:50):
to here in a moment, Here we go. Now, I
don't watch any of this show. Ross, you ever watched
Love Is Blind?

Speaker 2 (55:57):
I don't know if I've ever heard of it.

Speaker 1 (55:59):
I had not, really I had heard of it, I think,
But it's on Netflix, and all right, so how does
this thing work? They don't see each other, right, and
then they disagree to get married. I think is the
premise of it, which I you know, that's crazy in
and of itself. So somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

(56:20):
But they had a little controversy. So a star of
the viral hit Netflix show Love Is Blind is facing
backlash over leaving her reality star groom to be at
the altar on College You. Nurse Sarah Carlton walked out
of her wedding to Ben Mazenga in the season eight finale.

(56:43):
Now why all right? So so, for whatever reason, they
went through all the screening and then figured out, hey,
we never met, but let's go aha and get married.
Except I guess they have a little time to chat before,
and so she walked out of the wedding because she
said that he didn't share that she's all super woke

(57:05):
and apparently he's not all black Lives Matter, gay marriage,
go to the macaren at town hall meetings level of woke.
He's just kind of a normal dude. So she's like,
this isn't gonna work. That dude dodged a bullet man.
But also, why would you put somebody like that on
one of these shows like this where nobody really gets
to meet each other. Can you imagine you go through

(57:27):
with the nuptials. The next morning, She's upright and early,
and what do you want to do? She's like, I
don't know, let's go to a Trump protest. You're like,
oh my god, what did I do? So anyway, I
just happened to see that on the entertainment news this morning,
and now apparently Laura Ingram and other conservative x have
taken upon themselves to find this dude a wife who's

(57:50):
not insane. So there you go. And I guess if
you're a moonbat looking for love, there's one out there.
She's single and ready to mingle and probably glue herself
to stuff. So you guys can do that together, all right?
Seven forty five Race Stagic, he's here, did a good morning?
Yeah Dash sure O sure?

Speaker 2 (58:13):
I mean.

Speaker 6 (58:14):
And I think every time everybody hears rain or they
see rain, or somebody says rain, they think it's going
to rain. And you got to get into the details
of today. I really don't think most of us get rain.
Some of us might get clipped with a little light
rain today this afternoon, but I really think the bulk
of it, with a low of the storm actually going
well south of us, so small chance of rain, some sun,

(58:36):
but probably more clouds dan suns. We're seeing sixty degrees
today and then the sudd will be back by tomorrow
and the rest of the week, so ca se pretty
quiet weather. We again not emphasizing anything significant in terms
of rain today. Sun shines back in the low to
mid seventies. As we look ahead toward Tuesday, Wednesday, and
probably even Thursday, although a few more clouds in and
then by the end of the week we could get
closer to eighty and the Tryad especially, so nice mild

(58:58):
weather expected. I think the hot still hold on a
second time I ever tie this time of year. I
think it's still around sixty, Yes, sixty one for Raleigh.
For the Tryad it's fifty nine. We were all in
the fifties yesterday. A near season will now above average
temperatures after today for the rest of the week, probably

(59:19):
even on into the upcoming weekends. So we're maybe that
turn case toward you know, springtime. Obviously these are springtime temperatures.
Next chance of rain probably not in here till Saturday
night and Sunday.

Speaker 1 (59:28):
Alrighty, well, there we go. Yeah, because that's a that's
a good excuse just because Ray says rain if they
get rain, it's totally.

Speaker 6 (59:36):
Right, right because if you if I don't mention it
today and then somebody gets rain there and say, well,
you said it was a good rain, and so there
may be like one of those people watch it'll probably
pour now with my look. Oh, how's Ross doing today
with that new fifty something million dollars a year contract.

Speaker 1 (59:51):
I forgot to ask, are you talking about Josh Allen?

Speaker 2 (59:55):
Yeah, Josh Allen.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
I mean I think it is there was more money
and if I'm being out, yeah, pretty much. Just give
him the city.

Speaker 2 (01:00:01):
I will tell you.

Speaker 1 (01:00:02):
I saw rumors that Stefan Diggs might be going to
Kansas City, and I swear, I swear if he goes
to Kansas City and they do it to us again,
I'm gonna lose it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:10):
I won't be able to reason.

Speaker 1 (01:00:12):
You saw why they might need him, Like both of
the starting receivers might be out next year for Kansas
City because apparently they're kind of dirt sometimes.

Speaker 6 (01:00:20):
Yeah, a little trouble with the law enforcement again.

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
I guess, well, you're Cowboys fan. I don't want to
hear it from you about about your boys sitting there
basically saying that the NFL drug testing policies or like,
did you see that pack man?

Speaker 2 (01:00:35):
I did not?

Speaker 1 (01:00:36):
Yeah? Oh did he?

Speaker 6 (01:00:37):
Oh pack man boy, there was another failed experiment. Hey man,
how many more of those we're gonna do? And Jerry
Jones says, We're not going to be looking in free agents.
I'm like, oh, are we doing all that caxpoics.

Speaker 1 (01:00:49):
Better than you? Don't end up with Aaron Rodgers like
we might. But whatever, good luck with that. All right,
we'll talk in an hour. Thanks, Okay, let's see. Oh
the FEMA scandal that continues to grow, and MSNBC will
do this when we get back. MSNBC has finally figured
out why the Democrats are not continued to not do

(01:01:11):
well right now, have low approval ratings, their messaging isn't
getting out there. They finally put their heads together and
they figured out the reason. And it's hilarious and I'll
have it for you next with a dude who travels.
He is the Texas Rocketman, a human cannonball. I'll explain

(01:01:32):
what went wrong here in just a moment. But first,
MSNBC spending more time over the weekend they had Malijong
Fast who's a lunatic, Michael Steele, who's well, they're all lunatics.
But they're trying to figure out, once again for the
upteenth time, why the Democrats are not messaging well, not

(01:01:53):
polling well. What could the problem be? Now? Some would
say the problem might be that the party has really
moved a lot to the left in a lot of
people's opinions and is doing things like refusing to applaud
a kid with cancer and even mocking him. Right, it's
a bad look. All the insane stuff you saw with

(01:02:16):
the doge right and of course the women's sports issue,
all of the issues which very clearly point to a
disconnect with the policies and priorities of the party and
most voters. That's sow Trump ended up winning popular all
the swing states, all of it. It's a really easy
bit of analysis. But on MSNBC you can never come

(01:02:39):
to that conclusion because that would show that perhaps the
policies are fundamentally flawed. So they got to get more creative,
and this is quite the theory. Try and make sense
of this thread, this needle narratively to the help Americans
contextualize what's happening to them.

Speaker 5 (01:02:57):
So here's what I would say. I think that what
has happened is there Look, there's another piece to this,
which is there is not the same strong mainstream nonpartisan
media there was in twenty sixteen. It is much much,
much smaller. So it has fallen on a lot of
these Democrats, Democratic senators to narrate what's happening, right, like,

(01:03:19):
to explain what they've seen in the last seven weeks.
And I've seen some Democrats do that, and I think
what's been smart is where you've seen places like Bernie
Sanders go in and give town halls where Republicans won't.

Speaker 1 (01:03:33):
Okay, all right, I'm glad. So just just to re
reiterate here, the issue is not the policies. It's not
the behavior. It's not the smugness, it's not the you know,
the cancel culture within where if you're not one hundred
percent in lockstep, you're willing, you're willing to just burn

(01:03:54):
people down and then you alienate them and then they
don't want to be part of clubby. It's none of
those things. It's that again, let me have her reiterate.

Speaker 5 (01:04:02):
There's another piece to this, which is there is not
the same strong mainstream nonpartisan media there was in twenty sixteen.

Speaker 1 (01:04:11):
Imagine believing that one that in twenty sixteen that the
mainstream media is somehow nonpartisan, but two thinking that there's
not still that out there. This is the whole narrative too,
and I don't understand, Like I understand why they're doing it,
but it's just so dishonest. Where there's the assumption is
that somehow the Republicans own all of the messaging within

(01:04:33):
the media. Oh gosh, this is an Australia they're singing too? Well,
Oh great, what is an Australian protest song? What the
hell are they singing? Hang on, I try to what's
the only songs from Australia? I know the one about
Vegamite and the down Under with all the dwarves dancing? Right?

(01:04:54):
Is there other popular Australian songs? I don't know. All right,
I'll listen to that during the break. I just saw
the headline here. Okay, all right, how do you get
this wrong? That's what I want to know. So there's
a guy, his name is Chachi Valencia. Is actually pretty

(01:05:17):
famous even if you don't know the name, as he
has been around for years and years and years, and
if you've ever gone to a fair, mother festivals, you
may have seen this guy, including some halftime performances at
professional sporting events. So Valencia, who's known as the Texas Rocketman,

(01:05:38):
is a dude who gets shot out of rockets or
out of a cannon, you know, the old human cannibal.
That's his thing. And thus far, how many? How many
times has he done this? Nicely? They said it the
story there then I lost where it said it like,
this isn't his first rodeo. He's been doing that. Here

(01:05:58):
we go twenty five years, averaging over one hundred flights
a year. So do the math. It's he's not new
at this. Well, he was nearly killed over the weekend.
So at a festival in Indio, California, which is Indio
is about a half hour from Palm Springs, just to

(01:06:19):
give you some I guess geographic thing, not that it
really matters. So he is performing at the Riverside County
Fair and on average he will travel one hundred and
sixty five feet. He will reach speeds of fifty five
miles an hour. So it's I mean, it's a pretty
aggressive flight. And he famously has performed at the multiple

(01:06:45):
Olympics Okay ceremonies, also Carnival and Rio Deesios. This guy
goes over the world, all over the world. However, things
went horribly wrong over the weekend, leading to him being
launched into let's see here, into the side of his net,
which he flipped, so he hits the net, he hits

(01:07:08):
the very edge of it. He then flips over lands
on the pavement, gets knocked out cold and had to
be rushed to the hospital in an ambulance. All told,
broken wrist, multiple broken ribs, and a bleeding liver. So
it was no joke. He's out for a while, all right,
So how did it happen? He didn't account for the wind,

(01:07:34):
which is that is crazy to me. So he's done
this again over twenty five years, hundreds and hundreds of flights,
thousands of flights probably if you do the math there,
and he never thought the wind could adjust him like that.
How does that make sense? Apparently there was a big
gust of wind. It had been pretty windy, and he

(01:07:54):
didn't like aim it a little to the right. He
just kept it right where he normally is and then
he gets eventually got blown over and nearly killed himself,
so he says, you will not let it stop him.
Though in the future he said that they will be
more careful with whatever the wind's doing. So that's probably

(01:08:14):
probably some pretty good advice there, dude. All right, so
let me flip over to a couple other things. Here,
a United States Secret Service personnel killed an armed man
near the White House early Sunday morning. Dude, the amount
of lunatics they're just stewing around the White House is
pretty impressive. How many? How many run ins as Secret

(01:08:36):
Service had? Didn't they they didn't They just get into
a shootout with some dude here a few weeks ago,
the individual had parked his car close to the entrance
to the White House of the Eisenhower Executive Office building.
Trump was not in town. He was in Florida, so
not even in the vicinity. And it looks like it

(01:08:59):
was a calm nation of wanting to tangle with Secret
Service and suicide by cop. The individual, who police say
had traveled to DC from Indiana around midnight. Members of
the Secret Service encounter the individual parked near the White
House saw eventually when they went to respond. By the
time they got there, he's not in the car anymore.

(01:09:21):
But they do see him walking around outside the far
part of the gate and he's got a firearm. He
gets into a verbal altercation, he brandishes the firearm. Eventually,
you know, as as it plays out in these things,
points in the direction of Secret Service, and at that
point they're gonna open fire on you. But they are

(01:09:41):
investigating to figure out fully what the motivations were. No
members of the Secret Service were injured, and they have
thus far other than to say they were investigating and
give the details there. Because it is an officer involved shooting,
they're gonna they'll dig into it some more before they

(01:10:01):
actually issue a statement. So I don't know that he
was trying to do anything to Trump. It sounds like
they were having a mental health issue and they thought, well,
if I want to get a shot by police, I
suppose brandishing a gun outside the White House will work.
And he was not inaccurate, all right. Eight eight eight
nine three four seven eight seven four three. Additional FEMA

(01:10:22):
employees have been fired as part of the agency's investigation
into the guidance about whether you should avoid Trump houses,
which again I know it's not going to get as
much coverage as it should. But as more and more
people end up getting fired, do you think maybe you'd
want to cover some more of this, But they really
I didn't see it in a lot of places. The

(01:10:45):
three fired employees were all in the supervisory chain of
FEMA supervisor Marnie Washington, the woman who famously was the
one who went on TV and was like, oh, no,
this is common practice, this is what we do, and
who wrote the guidance that was at the core of
this thing. So I'm glad they're going up the food chain.

(01:11:05):
See what you're seeing here. And this is what's so
surprising for whether it's bureaucrats who want to play partisan politics,
or it's you know, the audacity of people that will
come to the US and not even be citizens and
somehow become like protest leaders over this place that they
wanted to come so badly, and yet they hate with

(01:11:28):
so much vigor and then nothing ever happens to them.
Has been pretty crazy for a lot of people. And
one of the craziest places has been what's been going
on on the campus of Columbia University right with their
insane protests where they literally they had like bomb threats
last week and Mahmoud Khalil is a graduate study student

(01:11:53):
at Columbia and is one of the main protest leaders,
including one of the leaders of the protest or they
didn't want bagels because that was too jewishy. And then
the most recent ones have been our at college where
they have completely stopped the ability of other students to
actually do, you know, academic stuff. And a lot of people,

(01:12:16):
including the White House, have said, you know, no, you're
not going to come here and be disruptive and do
things that are illegal. I don't care that you're a
Palestinian activist or an activist for whatever it is. You're
not going to do it because now you're not here
for the purpose of what you're doing. And this is
what they were saying that Trump administration was threatening the
First Amendment. They're not threatening the First The First Amendment

(01:12:37):
doesn't allow for violence. It literally has the word peaceful
in it. Well, you're talking about pro it says peaceful,
and these are clearly not so. The idea that somebody
might get held accountable to this. Thus far, nobody thought
it was going to happen. It happened. Yes, the activists

(01:12:58):
who led the disruptive protests a both Columbian Bnard was
arrested by Ice over the weekend at his campus apartment,
and everyone's screaming bloody murder over this. I mean not everyone,
just the moonbats, but of course the media will amplify
it like it's everyone. According to reports, on Saturday night,
Ice agents, a big swath of them entered the residence

(01:13:21):
and took them into custody. See, Khalil isn't an active
student anymore. And I don't know if you know how
student visas work and a potential green cart attached to it,
But if that's what it's for, and now you're not
even doing that, you're a professional activist. And by the way,
there's money coming to this dude, which is another violation.

(01:13:42):
They're not gonna put up with you anymore. You're gonna go,
And I just like the whole scenario is so weird,
Like can you imagine going to Mexico. Right, Let's say
you're gonna go to Mexico. You do a family vacation
at Cantcum, but when you get there, rather than just
doing tourist stuff, you organize an anti government protest and
you disrupt a major institution. Do you think the Mexican

(01:14:06):
government's going to put up with that from some random
gringo in the country. Not to catch the cartels, probably,
but just in general. No, there's not a government that's
going to allow that. You can't go over to Europe
and tether yourself to Big Ben and not expect the
British are going to respond. So why the hell would
we in the US allow this? And we do a lot.

(01:14:29):
You know, one of the main Oujon provocateurs instigators at
UNC is also a foreign student, and I don't know
what the status is there. It just seems like there's
a lot less student team that's happening and disruptive protests.
The protests featured violent propaganda flyers purportedly coming from the

(01:14:50):
Quote Hamas Media Office, which is apparently a student organization
on the campus of Columbia at least at Leasha and
I come out with a cutesy name and lying about
what it is, including a pamphlet produced by the group
celebrating the October seventh attacks and giving tips and tricks
on how to essentially harass Jewish students. And that's what

(01:15:14):
this dude was here for. So yeah, you can't support
this guy fast enough. But let him go back to
you know, Gaza and do whatever he's going to do
from there. In response, administrators kicked the perpetrators off campus.
Dozens of mass protesters stormed Bernard's historic Millbank Hall. And

(01:15:36):
then that's where you saw the all the insanity from
last week where two utter demonstrators sees the academic nerve
center of And it's a private woman's college too, which
is also what makes it weird. Bnards. It's an offshoot
of Columbia, agents rated Khalil's apartment. Columbia put out a

(01:15:57):
statement addressing the presence of agents. Oh yeah, all right,
they said, consistent with their long standing practice and the
practice of cities and institutions throughout the country, law enforcement
must have a judicial warrant. So Columbia was simply complying
with the legal obligations as they had a warrant. So
they didn't have a warrant for this guy. Although now

(01:16:20):
the Moonbat's friends are very upset. Following his detention, supporters
issued a press release calling the arrest a racist targeting
which serves to instill fear in pro Palestinian activists due
the amount of cancer on campus with these because again
this isn't about First Amendment. You're welcome to stand in
the quad with your signs, You're not welcome to threaten people,

(01:16:42):
or intimidate people or shut down the ability of people
to go to class. I'm sorry, and we need a
more definitive line. And the fact that this guy was
so cocky that he clearly knew he was in violation
of his own student visa and he's doing things that
led to all of these physical reactions and bomb threats
and people having to be kicked off campus or evacuate,

(01:17:04):
I should say, and the audacity to think that you
get away with it. I love that this is eye
opening for them, although I don't know that you're going
to get your campus back, so it's probably going to
be pretty interesting there today and the rest of this
week because now they're threatening to, you know, get even
with the university for not doing anything. Hey, as long

(01:17:26):
as this dude's on a plane and not allowed back
in here, I'm fine with that. And some of the
statements they've issued. Nazis don't deserve comfort, they don't deserve
to live. Fascists don't deserve to live, Racists don't deserve
to live, Zionists shouldn't live in this world. This is
literally the sign the signers this guy had in this
picture here, So I don't know it sounds a little threatening,

(01:17:49):
because again this is this is part of the deal.
Just like the Macaraina thing. It's all about being as
obnoxious as possible and not having real discussion or debate.
Just let's just be very clear or what it is.
And normal people when they see something like that and
they're just like, well, just I'm going to participate in
that anymore. These guys literally will take militant, violent action

(01:18:13):
and then go and then pretend like that's what they
weren't doing, And I'm just done. If you don't like something,
don't partake in it. That's all you gotta do. Ross
you're playing, you're looking for the new Harry Potter series.
You excited about that? What?

Speaker 2 (01:18:29):
Yeah, No, I'm passing on that.

Speaker 1 (01:18:31):
I'm gonna gonna go start a violent insurrection over a minute,
I'm gonna I'm gonna go to the Captain America route
and just not watch it. Okay, by the way, if
you don't know what's up, snape is was race swapped
or something, So like I don't the teacher, uh it
was Alan Rickman who played him. Alan Rickman, right, played
Snape in the original. So now it's a it's a

(01:18:51):
it's a black dude, right, So what's uh, what's the
beef with that? Other than it literally isn't the character.

Speaker 2 (01:18:59):
Well, I mean it changes a lot in this story, involving,
you know, him being bullied by Harry's father when he
was younger. By the Marauders. There's a scene where they
literally take Snape up and they levitate him up into
a tree and they bully him. Oh yeah, or where
he's trying to go after Harry's mom, or I don't
know spoiler where he kills Dumbledore you can see, or

(01:19:21):
the whole time when he's you know, there's an animosity
between him and Harry. So are they gonna turn it
into like a racist thing? Now we're like, oh, I'm
gonna go after you because your dad was racist and
hung me in the tree when I was a kid.
It changes, and it's so dumb because he's discrut I
just can't. I'm just not I'm done.

Speaker 1 (01:19:40):
No, no, no, it's fine. But my point is that's you're
gonna you're gonna complain about it, and then you're not
gonna watch it, and then you're gonna go eat another piece.

Speaker 2 (01:19:46):
That's it, right, and my day goes correct.

Speaker 1 (01:19:49):
Yeah, I mean that's how normal people deal with this.

Speaker 2 (01:19:51):
I'm not I'm not gonna go down on a campus down. No,
and I'm not gonna go glue myself to a road
or whatever the hell they do it. Just yeah, gonna go.
I have I have more important things to focus on.
Then they're supposed to give me a way to escape reality.

Speaker 1 (01:20:02):
How about you glue yourself to the cookout.

Speaker 2 (01:20:05):
That's a great plan.

Speaker 1 (01:20:07):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (01:20:07):
I'm like, I'm starving. You can't be starve. You better
bring me another peach cobbler, milkshake you get.

Speaker 1 (01:20:13):
You can sing, you can sing them. He can come
over with a stupid song until I give you peach cobbler.
Oh to be amazed.

Speaker 2 (01:20:19):
Oh, somebody stole my milkshake. Better bring me another one. Yeah, yeah, dude,
it's got it's got fruit, it's got the crumble from
the cobbler. It's an entire meal.

Speaker 1 (01:20:31):
It's so yeah, it's it's it's a thing. It's gotta
have one every day.

Speaker 3 (01:20:37):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:20:37):
That's what the that's what the doctor ordered al at
eight twenty three, hang on the trashy romance novels and
if that's your guilty pleasure ladies or guys, I guess
for that matter. Okay, but like I'm not up on
all this. As part of the only stuff I knew
about it was like, uh that Fabio used to be
on all the covers and then a goose tried to
murder him, and uh that the the fifty Shades of

(01:21:02):
Great Dude.

Speaker 2 (01:21:03):
Fifty Shades was like a breaking point, Like ninety percent
of female novels now are smut?

Speaker 1 (01:21:09):
Is it really that bad? I mean?

Speaker 2 (01:21:11):
And it's like people want to read it's weird stuff
with like wear wolves. I guess that came from Twilight,
but like were wolves and like antifas and it's super weird.
My Antifa lover, I heard that was a good book, dude.

Speaker 1 (01:21:26):
I love that day. We just read it on the
air and that's again that's fine, but that's not why
this romance novel is under fire. So so Sophie Lark,
who's the author and the publisher's Bloom Books, have issued
an apology her newest novel called Sparrow and Vine, which
I was I've been waiting for this. A preview copies

(01:21:48):
went out right because they sent them out to the people,
you know, the various book reviewers, and immediately some of
the critics, who I thought were supposed to be critics
but apparently activists. I are. You're shocked. They took issue
with a couple lines, just throwaway lines in the book.
I don't even know what the book's about. It doesn't matter.

(01:22:10):
It's it's you know, it's basically some dude's in a
position of power and then some chick who gets to
hook up with them, and it's all whatever, it's the same,
it's all. It's all the narrative that isn't supposed to
be the opposite of quote, what's quote unquote empowering. That's
the thing about these books. They tend to have kind
of an old schirrel, old school lusty vibe. Right, It's

(01:22:31):
not Girl Bosses necessarily, but that's fine whatever. But unfortunately,
there were two lines in the book that ran a
foul and now the publisher has canceled it and they're apologizing.
So in the book, one character is talking to another
character and they're talking about organizational stuff, and the line
is I was inspired by Elon musk I use his

(01:22:56):
five step design process, which is a thing you can
look up. By the way, Elon's got a couple there's
a couple things that he does from a business standpoint.
One the way that they go about designing stuff, and
two the way that they do cost controls, which you're
seeing implemented with dose to some extent. Right, So let's
say you have a million dollar budget, but somehow you're

(01:23:17):
you're spending one point two million. Right, that's a problem.
So you got to reign in your costs. And you know,
government they just print more money. But in the business world,
you got to do that. And so you can take
the approach where you go through you identify, you know,
two hundred thousand cuts and then you start starving the
beast your right size stuff, you do riffs with employee

(01:23:37):
and all the stuff that business is known for. Or
where if you there's another way, and there's a term
for it, where what you do is you immediately basically
stop spending anything that you're not forced to spend, and
then you slowly build back your spending, which is a
much more aggressive way to do it. And you're seeing
it with like government credit cards, right, now where the

(01:23:58):
Trump administration, I want to just go cancel them. A
judge that he couldn't do it, So they turned all
of the spending limits to a dollar. And then if
you want to spend more than a dollar on your
government credit card, because these things were being abused, like
everywhere we're paying for people's meals twenty four to seven. Right,
there's some problems there, and then you have to get
it approved for any spending above a dollar. Right, it's

(01:24:22):
so much more aggressive way to do cost controls. But
like they're just referencing something that must does well, that's
too much. And then there's another line in there where
I guess character of the book says, I don't want
to sound ignorant, but shouldn't there be a crew of
people with questionable work visas picking these grapes for us?

(01:24:42):
So somebody made a little immigration joke there. Well, now
you can't read the book because they're not going to
put it out. So, you know, in a way where
things kind of felt like they were moving in the
right direction, where publicly businesses, corporations elected officials to some extent,

(01:25:03):
and the media for that matter, was kind of in
twenty sixteen, if you ignored or disagreed with anyone, they
try to cancel you. And now you can do stuff
where people are willing to go in another direction even
though they're being threatened by these lunatics who want to
cancel you. You know, business is doing away with their
DEI stuff because they realize that it's not going to

(01:25:25):
be the end of times if they don't. Right, these
are all things that are making us feel better. But
then you see situations like this where people are getting
they're going to cancel the whole book. I'm sure this
woman's been paid for it. There's marketing costs, there's publishing costs. Oh.
In the story from the author who also wrote King

(01:25:46):
Makers and Underworld, Oh, so she does ross is what
you're talking about. So she did the Underworld vampire smut
novels too, which I didn't realize there was an offshoot
of that for the movie. Oh, I bet that's just
awful anyway. And a statement say, it's been brought to
my attention that certain lines in our new book are hurtful.

(01:26:07):
Reading your messages and hearing your perspectives has been humbling,
and I want to acknowledge the pain my words have caused.
I'm truly sorry. All right, we'll get rid of this
chick too. Look, if you're not you can't emotionally go No,
I wrote a novel and it's just two people speaking,
and somebody said that you don't even have to like
the person who said it, but you're willing to once

(01:26:29):
you've apologized, it's over right. We ally we preach.

Speaker 2 (01:26:32):
As Unfortunately I have some sort of experience and knowledge
on this topic. I can't really get into the details
of why. But there are certain areas we like to
believe that everyone has moved along from Wokeville, but certain
industries are still really like knee deep in it. And publication,
the world of getting published is one of those.

Speaker 1 (01:26:49):
Remember the New York Times bestseller list? How manipulated that's
been over the years. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:26:53):
Again, Yeah, it's not like a you're like, oh, that's
actually the book the top ten books people are buying.

Speaker 1 (01:26:57):
It's not no, you're gonna have the number one selling book.
O'reiley used to run into this and beck right, they'd
have the number one selling book in the country and
they wouldn't put them on the list, and they'd be like, well,
you technically you sold a bunch of your books at Costco.
That was literally one of the reasons they said that
they couldn't put them on there. So yeah, oh, I
just assume. I assume it's it's worse than Hollywood. Hollywood's

(01:27:18):
a lot broader. So so your Cannibal book with your
Cannibal game, that thing's not going to work out.

Speaker 2 (01:27:26):
J k Rowling recently came out about this. She had
like a whole post about it. How unfair the publishing
world now is, like, she probably.

Speaker 1 (01:27:32):
Shot so big they can't tell her no, right.

Speaker 2 (01:27:34):
Right, She's got you know, blank Q money and there's
nothing you can do about at this point. You're like, oh,
we're gonna buy all your books and we're going to
boycott you, and we're gonna you're gonna have to file
for banking. No, there's nothing you can do to jk
Rowling at this point that's gonna hurt her. She said,
do you remember the tweet that triggered her that started
all this?

Speaker 1 (01:27:49):
It was it was the tweet where she kind of
mentioned the women's sports thing, But do you remember the
one that really set the boon bets off where they're like,
how can you live with yourself? And I think her
tweet was, well, my royalty check shows up and then
I feel better, right, And it was one of the
first going back to the initial JK rally canceling or
attempted canceling. That was one because she didn't just tell

(01:28:11):
him no. She like spitting their eye with that line.
And it was great watching them.

Speaker 2 (01:28:16):
Yeah, it's so dumb to see them too, Like they'll
go into these stores and physically buy the books just
to burn them.

Speaker 1 (01:28:22):
It's like them, it's like the Canadian liquor stores pulling the.

Speaker 2 (01:28:26):
You already bought the product, it's on the shelf, dude.

Speaker 1 (01:28:30):
Yeah, yeah, you bought it. You bought it for you know,
you bought it for bulk, and now you're not even
gonna sell it for retail. He's just gonna put it
in a storeroom somewhere. So now you're gonna age it
in some cases, so maybe you're making it better, all right.
Eight forty four Here on the k c o DA
radio program, Raced Agic from the Weather Channel standing by,

(01:28:50):
he's gonna hedge his bets to that.

Speaker 6 (01:28:53):
I am maybe not right, Yeah, I think most of
us are get in and get none sixty degree tryad
probably stay in the fifties, but either way, not too
bad of a Monday. Low pressure going south really bring
the rain, thunderstorms, and the Panhandle and Tampa get hit
pretty hard right now, maybe traveling the airport, got a
flight into Tampa, probably some delays around TPA. Other than that,

(01:29:14):
small chances to rain, better chances as you go south
toward Fayetteville and down in the South Carolina Harley sunny otherwise,
and then we'll get into sunshine here for Tuesday Wednesday,
beautiful couple of days coming up. Lower seventies, maybe some
mid seventies. Same thing on Thursday, but a little more
cloud in and then Friday, mid seventies, maybe near eighty
degrees for the Triangle as we're going to see some

(01:29:37):
warm air continue to push in after temperatures near seasonable today,
and as you said, kind of hedge in my bets.
I really think most of us probably get no rain today,
but the mention is in there just in case, and
especially if you're to the south the Triad or the Triangle,
where there's a little better chance of some light rain.
We won't see a more substantial chance of rain until

(01:29:58):
late in the weekend coming up, So looks like some
great enjoyable outdoor weathers will be well above average after today,
probably right on through the rest of the weekend into
the upcoming weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:30:09):
Okay, all right, thank you, sir. I appreciate it, and
we'll come back with Jeff Bellinger next. Hang on, all right,
good morning. It is eight fifty two and your Bloomberg
Update now with Jeff Bellinger. Jeff, what's happening?

Speaker 2 (01:30:21):
Good morning, Casey.

Speaker 7 (01:30:23):
The futures to suggests the week's going to get off
to an ugly start on Wall Street. They are lower
across the board now. Futures are down four hundred and
seventy nine points now. President Trump talked about the economy
over the weekend. He told Fox News the nation is
going through a period of transition. He would not rule
out a recession. He was asked point blank if he

(01:30:44):
expects a recession this year. The President said he hates
to predict such things. He said what his administration is doing.

Speaker 2 (01:30:51):
Is very big.

Speaker 7 (01:30:53):
The real estate listing site Redfinn will change hands. The
financial technology company Rocket is buying red for one and
three quarter billion dollars Redfin shares or up sixty nine
percent pre market. We are a loyal bunch when it
comes to banking is survey by Bankrate fines Americans keep
their checking accounts an average of nineteen years and savings

(01:31:15):
accounts for seventeen years. Banks with brick and mortar branches
generally keep their customers much longer than financial institutions that
are online only. Bankrate says the main reason people stick
with their banks is convenience. A lot of people said
changing banks is just too much of a hassle. CVS
Health reportedly plans to try out a new drug store format.

(01:31:37):
The Wall Street Journal says CVS will open a dozen
smaller outlets across the country this year. The stores will
have full service pharmacies, but retail will be limited to
healthcare products. They'll do away with the aisles of greeting cards, groceries,
and cosmetics. And Casey, Saint Patrick's Day is just a
week off. Krispy Kreme has a new limited time doughnut collection.

(01:32:00):
You donuts are on the menu today for Saint Patrick's Day.
The chain's original glazed donuts will be turned green for
next Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

Speaker 1 (01:32:09):
Casey, Okay, all right, thank you very much, do appreciate it.
And uh we'll chat here tomorrow, sir, sounds good.

Speaker 2 (01:32:16):
Talk to you. Then have a good day, all right?

Speaker 1 (01:32:18):
Uh? Oil boy? This is this is something boy? Are
we living? You know? For every every again, every time
I think we're moving forward, we end up moving backwards. Wait,
what you're even allowed to do in this country anymore?
Case in Point Georgia. A Georgia man reportedly high on mushrooms.

(01:32:45):
Oh you know, the story's gonna be good, has been
arrested for disorderly conduct after authorities say he caused a
public disturbance after while high on mushrooms, he took to
a Georgia highway. Where is this Putnam County? I don't
even know where that is in Georgia, near Lake o'coney.

(01:33:07):
It doesn't matter anyway, he's in Georgia. He's high off
his gourd on mushrooms in a chicken suit onesie, but
with the back open so you can see his butt,
screaming at passing cars and slamming vehicle waits. He one
of these Tesla protesters. Now, I know you've seen this video.
Now people are just physically attacking Teslas in traffic and

(01:33:30):
shooting at Tesla dealerships. Hell we had to arrest here
in North Carolina over this stuff. Forty seven year old
Jason Pinch reportedly was found in a state of high
hallucination braiding passing cars while in his chicken onesie. According
to Sheriff Howard Sills, Police received a call initially from

(01:33:53):
his ex girlfriend who said that her ex had gone
nuts on mushrooms and was harassing people and also apparently
acquired a yellow chicken onesieu in which he was punching vehicles.
So I'm sorry, So this country is now to the
point where you can't get high on mushrooms, get a
chicken onesie that shows your your naked butt and and

(01:34:15):
and scream and destroy passing cars. What are we even doing?
Can you imagine telling the founding fathers we were not
gonna allow people to get high on mushrooms, get a
chicken onesie and vandalized cars with people in it.

Speaker 2 (01:34:27):
Dude, that was like every weekend of mine in Salt
Lake back in the day.

Speaker 1 (01:34:31):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, this is in Georgia. Used to live
in Georgia, right, I'm assuming that you would do this
down in Georgia.

Speaker 2 (01:34:37):
I mean, there is the reason I moved, But yes, I'm.

Speaker 1 (01:34:39):
Assuming this is why the traffic sucks in Atlanta. People
in chicken onesies high on shrooms. Oh my gosh, hold on,
hold on, hold on, it is ross. They kept him
in the chicken outfit for the booking photo.

Speaker 2 (01:35:02):
I would have it on a T shirt in like
two days, it would be it'd be ready to be
ready for market. I would sell that thing o the
merch T shirt of me and the chicken costume, my mugshot. Yeah,
I mean the hates for sheriff's store.

Speaker 1 (01:35:15):
Oh they tasted him too. Oh no, you can't. All right,
so this gets I just emailed you the I just
emailed you the story. Check out the thing.

Speaker 2 (01:35:30):
If he got tased by a copper, it has to
be on their their cams, right they.

Speaker 1 (01:35:35):
Yeah, no, it is. There's there's there's a whole there's
a whole the whole cam in this in the in
the article here, there's a whole long YouTube video of
the thing from the body camps people. Oh man, it
looks unhappy according to authorities. Uh when they showed up officers. Additionally,
he started screaming at the officers, but then he started

(01:35:56):
questioning the deputies about whether he was real or not.
He kept asking if he was real, then asked the
deputy if the deputy was real, uh, and then got
disorderly at which point, but okay, so they're like, well
you're gonna we're gonna take you into custody because you're high,

(01:36:17):
off your off your butt, sir. And then at that
point he said that they couldn't because he's not really
here right now. He's at home relaxing in his hammock. Dude,
there is no explanation about how he came to be
wearing a chicken outfit. Yes, according to the deputy when
asked why he was wearing a chicken suit, well now

(01:36:38):
you're profiled, sir. You're not there because of the chicken suit.
You're there because he's vanalyzing cars. He wants to wear
a chicken suit. Let's say you, I mean know, the
drugs are probably a problem, but
