Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's spent a lot of quality time with our software
support team, who did get me all lined out. So
do I have that going for us? But oh boy,
all right, so ya to Windows eleven or whatever. Fresh
hell this is hey, real Quick just wanted to there

(00:23):
we go play nice, That's all I'm asking. Real Quick
wanted to do because I know that this is the
thing you crave at like six o dark thirty in
the morning, just a little financial stuff. Remember I told
you it's really interesting because if you get up at
this time and you're following.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
The twitters, you can treat yourself.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
To what's going on kind of in the UK from
a news cycle standpoint, it's the first thing you see
and if they're fighting over something over there, you get
to see it, and then you have to decide whether
you care enough to inform yourself of it. And this
morning I cared an because I saw a number and

(01:04):
I'm like, that can't be right. I mean, I assume
it's trending in that direction, but that number has to
be a gross exaggeration. So I checked some stuff, did
a little uh did a little looking up to uh,
you know, see what's going on there.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Ros can till I'm screwing with my mic right now.
I'm sorry. I'm just trying to figure out how to
get that sweet spot. All right, did a little check in.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
And then I realized it's not wrong, and frankly, uh,
now I'm anticipating the other shoe.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
So the first shoe.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
The thing I'm talking about this morning is the reporting
of year over year monthly sales numbers by an automotive company.
I know that doesn't sound that exciting, but the automotive company.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
In question is how did ross do you have?

Speaker 1 (02:07):
You notice people say this in one of two ways.
You have Jaguar or Jaguar or just Jaguar.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
How do you say? Do you say it.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
Like the old Malkovich snl skit Jagawa Jagawa?

Speaker 4 (02:21):
All right?

Speaker 1 (02:23):
So do you remember last year about this time, a
little earlier in this time, I think it was May,
they rolled it out. Do you remember when they unveiled
and they and they made a whole thing of it,
their new look, their new rebranding, their new logo, color scheme, everything,
And then on the day that they dropped it, everyone went, uh.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
What the hell is that?

Speaker 1 (02:50):
And they got clowned on the internet because they decided
to go super like what woke is the right word,
but I think it under sells what they did. They
went all, we're not what we used to be, We're
going to be something totally different. And I just remember,
I just remember how horrible it was. Everyone was kind

(03:11):
of laughing.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
So they did that. All right, Well that's not helpful there.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
So they did that, and now they're reporting numbers for
year over year April sales.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
We haven't even seen what's gonna happen in the US.
So this is just in Europe.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Believe it or not. It did not go how they
thought it was going to go. Okay, and instead of
driving sales numbers up, which hold on, let me have
those real quick. How many units are so? How many
units in twenty twenty four do you think that they

(03:53):
shipped in Europe? Just Europe, not the US. We don't
know the US numbers yet, but in Europe, how many thing?
How many custom cars do you think they built and
shipped April of last year, just prior.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
To the new rebranding.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
It's not that many two thousand roughly, it's like nineteen
hundred and sixty one. Okay, how many do you think
they shipped? This April twenty twenty five. So after they rebranded.
Here here's the new numbers. I'm telling you it's down,
so you have you can anticipate the number is going
to be lower. What do you think the number is

(04:30):
as a percentage or as a number? So nineteen sixty
one is the number from last year? What do you
think your European sales were in twenty twenty five?

Speaker 2 (04:38):
In April.

Speaker 3 (04:39):
I'm going to be some carship. I'm going to be
nice to them. Okay, all right, fifty down, fifty percent more? Yeah,
I keep that you old layer going ye yep, yeah,
yeah to seventy five percent.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Wow, that's mean, but not even close? What yeah? More?
Well more just just.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
A small gate will give them eighty eighty percent.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
You could, and you know what, they would take it
because it's more than that. It's ninety seven point five percent,
that's right.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
The shipping numbers from twenty twenty four April were one
nine hundred and sixty one units, and in April of
twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
They shipped just forty nine doubt well, that's not the
most accurate number. I don't know why I'm playing the
mystery music. There's no mystery here. While it's not fair
just to look at shipping numbers because you know, within
one month, I mean that comes down to orders, but
it's so it's clear enough that this woke rebranding was

(05:50):
such a failure that they immediately fired their marketing agency
who came up with all this insanity. They're trying to
figure this out, and it's like, who drives Jaguar?

Speaker 3 (06:02):
Who?

Speaker 1 (06:03):
If I had to ross, had to ask you, who
do you see in your mind? If somebody pulls up
in a new Jag, who is the person getting out
of that Jag?

Speaker 3 (06:12):
I don't know a rich white British dude.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
I have no idea, yes, yeah, or just a rich
The sales manager in Minnesota for a station used to
drive a Jag and he is he was an old,
rich white dude. I know a woman who drives a Jag.
She's an old, rich white woman.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
I wouldn't call her. I'm sorry, I would not call
you old. But she's she's, you know, collecting Social Security
now she drives a Jag.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
This is one of those things where like the James
Bond drove a Jag, right, this is one of their things.
We're like, and you've seen this in media too, with
movies and stuff where their timing was just completely off
because you're in the middle of like the Wok day
where everything is being super well and it was before
like the major major backlash that we've seen, right including

(07:04):
the election, right.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Well, you were bud Light. Bud Light was already happening.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Yeah, when you unveiled your thing for a car company
to go from two thousand units which isn't which isn't
a bunch. But look at what they produce, right, They're
very there. There are a specialty. Yeah, I understand that
there's entry level jags, but they're they're making their money
off the people who are on waiting lists and things
like that.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
I wonder, I wonder what that is.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
You know what it is. It's it's a matter of
a lot of these things take a lot of time
to you know, come up with and to produce, and
you're in the middle of the of the the process
of doing that. What was that beat for?

Speaker 2 (07:39):
All? Right, I just hit the wrong button?

Speaker 3 (07:41):
Okay, it was like, did I swear I just I'm
not aware of it.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
I swear it's careful. Yeah yeah, no. But so like
you see this in movies and stuff, right where they
came out with this movie where you had like the
president that was like it was Kamala Harris, like that's
who it was in the movie. And you have these
people like you're in the middle of a trend and
you're like, this woke thing is going on, and you
started and it's a long process from beginning to end,
from you know, concept to delivery of product or whatever

(08:09):
it is you're producing. And you have a lot of
these movies where the timing was bad and then Trump wins,
which completely took them by surprise, and they're like, well,
now we have this product that we put all this
time in and we produced, and now we're still going
to release it and it's gonna do not well because
that's not where the people are right now. And it's
the same similar thing. So there in the middle of
doing this, at some point, especially after Trump was elected,
they had it been like we are screwed. We we

(08:31):
should have abandoned this concept. And I remember when this
computer I think the commercial was came out, the super
woke Jegowa commercial came out. I want to think it
was around Christmas or something last year.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Yeah, and they started, So they started teasing it in May, right,
so they teased it for six months so they remember,
they just had the logo and then it was November
when they released it.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
Because there was a theory because it was so super woke,
it was so different and it was all like pastels
and purples.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
They thought they were going straight driverless car super thing,
and instead that's not what they were doing.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
The concept, the theory was what they were going to
do at the end because it was a two part
of commercial, like you would say like two part of campaign,
that the second part of the campaign would be they
were going to go the opposite direction. So you're watching
the first half and you're like, wow, they've gone woke,
and then the next one was going to be like,
say a bunch of rabid jaguars.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
No, it was just James Bond at at Big Ben
with you know, three hotties.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
No, no, No. The theory that I saw was they
were gonna, you know, you had this woke commercial, but
then at the end, the second part was going to
be actual jaguars just attacking, you know, like going through
and like all the woke people like.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
The Trust with Jags.

Speaker 3 (09:46):
Yeah, just this person like running away and then be like,
hey we're Jaguar, We're awesome. That would have been an
amazing ad campaign that would have been like that. Yeah, yeah,
it's almose. Yes, but they did not. But they did
not happen.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
No, they went they went woke, and they might have
destroyed the brand. Yeah, ninety seven point what three or so,
I want to be accurate. Ninety seven point five it's
so bad. Do you remember when that was Trump's border
stoppage number and they're like, we need more.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
They got it to ninety nine, Like there's still room?

Speaker 3 (10:20):
Is my point? You know what it is? It's the
Trump tariffs. That is what it is.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
That these are the European shipping numbers.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
Yeah no, no, yeah, the semantics the tariffs.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
They've never entered the US.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
They're like, no, there's there's literally there's not tariff.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
But you know what, you make a good prediction.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
I think when the US numbers come out and their
dog crap, right, that's what they're gonna blame. The business
reporter over at like c NBC is gonna be like, wow,
you know, the tariffs did this, and they will completely
ignore that the sales numbers in Europe, which would you
would you run Ross a I and tell me where
the UK is.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Just gonna check that real quick. Let's see if that's.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
Where is the UK? Oh it's your UK?

Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah check that oh Europe? Oh wow,
yeah that's rights Rossi's fast.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah there.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
So they'll ignore that number and it'll be down in
the US obviously, those they'll sell more units because there's
more people.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
But I mean, they're so entrenched and they believe in
this ideology so much. Maybe or maybe they just thought
it was a good ad campaign and they're horribly wrong.
But a lot of times like there, they won't actually
admit to what the problem is. So they are going
to focus on something else, and you can see them
in a boardroom being like the Trump that serason.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
Yeah absolutely, man, forty seven units in all of Europe,
not just the UK by the way, forty Oh excuse me,
I'm sorry, I embellished forty nine units.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
I want to be very accurate here, not forty seven.
Forty nine dude.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
There's people listening to this show who will buy more
cars in their lifetime than that, because they're just car people.
But you know, some people are getting that. I don't
Ross Are you familiar with the new Pixar movie le
e O or Eleo?

Speaker 3 (12:10):
I am. I was reading about this last night.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
Yeah, so believe it or not. Even though it did
not do well, it could have done a lot worse.
So this movie was actually really, really like the movie
that they were going to put out is not the movie.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
They put out. They they redid a bunch and I
was not aware of all this. So I was reading
this this morning, so well, maybe maybe Jaguar Jaguar.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
I'm sorry, are you saying jagowa Jason? I'm sure it
said Jago. Is it the same person who came up
with the pronunciation of Iran?

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Who does that? Okay, all right, wonderful.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Yes, this new Pixar movie l Eo or Eleo, I
don't even know how it's pronounced. May twenty one million domestically,
fourteen million overseas, but cost basically probably three hundred million
to make, was going to be something very different, very different.
And it goes back to what Ross was saying. When

(13:15):
you're when you're building a new car or you're making
a movie, you start doing this a long time ago, right,
so you better bet correctly. And Disney at least had
the the foresight Disney Pixar to realize, wow, we went
in a completely wrong direction. The problem is the I

(13:39):
know they fire the ad agency there, and you got
these video game companies where we keep seeing some really
woke decisions, and those have a long lead time, and
yet it's not like those people are on the street
like they'll they'll just cycle to some other company who
hasn't learned their lesson yet.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
Well, the problem with Disney and Pixar is they keep
making the same mistake over and over and over again,
and you start to think, well, it's not a mistake,
it's obviously an agenda. Right. They just did the same
thing with the Inside Out movie where the.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Hang on because I haven't said what they did yet,
I was teasing there. I was teasing there. But I
know you got some thoughts on this, let me do this,
and and Ross is correct. I think I think it's
one of those issues where they're like they want to
do it so bad that they're just hoping they don't
get caught.

Speaker 2 (14:26):
And the and the thing gets up.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Remember the lady who said that she will take every
I can't remember exactly what her title was, but she's like,
I will put LGBT into everything, right, I don't know
if it was a conference.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Call or what.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
Yeah, no, it's an inside Disney conference call. And she
said that it was her mission to like sneak sneak
it into everything she could do.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Yeah, and it's like, here, here's the thing. If you
want to put that in a movie, just don't it.
Don't be like, don't tell you gotta sneak it in there. Look,
I'm making this movie. What was what was the one
that won all the Oscars? That call Me by my Name?
Do you remember?

Speaker 1 (15:01):
And that was the year where they announced the wrong thing?
They were unapologetic what that was? I know a lot
of listeners and we criticized this because it involved an
underage sexual relationship in there, which is some would say
it's a little problematic, but it has you know, it's
like that hasn't been the theme of stuff Kevin Spacey

(15:22):
movie and some other stuff.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
And they just owned it.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
But when you're just trying to sneak it in to
what people think is going to be bland, non sexualized content,
they react differently. Everyone knew what was up with what
was that movie? When we were kids that came out
that shocked the other crying game. Do you remember that
everyone knew what was coming and that movie did really well.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
That's that's not a chick So if you own it
and put it in.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
The problem is when you're making kids movies or you're
making James Bond cars, you go ahead and try to
do that thing, and you, as I've said in radio,
you violate the expectation of your listeners or in this case,
your customers. People are going to have a negative reaction.
So we'll explain what Disney Pixar did and we got
some thoughts on that. So lots to get to hang

(16:10):
on with you out there. If you want to be
conscious about what you put in your body and ask
questions and all that, I am all.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
For that, and I'm down with that too. By the way,
I've made a lot of decision I know Ross has too.
I've made a lot of decisions, not as many as.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
Ross has, and over the past few years to try
to improve what I eat right, and I have moved
away from a lot of foods that are preservative foods.
I had a lot of raw fruits and vegetables, which
I've always kind of done because I've not been a
sweets person. But I made a concerted effort to be
much healthier in what kind of foods you're out there

(16:44):
for a variety of reasons. I don't get into it
with you know all the reasons why. I just you know,
it's maybe it's just part of getting older, right, you
get more conscious about it. Like ross have ten years ago,
if I asked him how much what percentage of protein
he was eating, would have would have.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
Laughed at me.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
And now I bet you know exactly how much protein
you're gonna put in your body today, right, yeah, yeah,
And that's great.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
But he doesn't walk. You know, it's not in the mornings.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Like, by the way, today I'm gonna eat forty eight
grams of protein for breakfast, probably because that would be
obnoxious unless I asked, hey, what are you eating?

Speaker 3 (17:20):
No, I tell you every morning. I tell you. Listen
every the first thing I tell you, like at least
for the past six months, I'm like, dude, yeah, no
more dies in your food. And you need to bathe
in beef towel. Tellows right, it's like an ice bath
with beef towels.

Speaker 4 (17:32):
Stop.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
Why have some of you ruined this?

Speaker 1 (17:36):
You don't look you don't have to eat dies, you
don't have to eat preservatives, you don't have to eat
seed oils. Okay, but you're being them, do you understand this? Right,
You're being the people you used to complain about. I
can't I can't tell you the last time where I
because here's the thing I like to do if I'm traveling.
And I just did my big you know, North Carolina

(17:58):
loop right up in Ashville, went visited a bunch of
little towns in western North Carolina, did the Greensboro broadcast
back to Raleigh, obviously, and and you know.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
That's how I spent the last two weeks. So I
spent the last two weeks. And you know what, I love, love, love, love,
love love.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
I love a really good sandwich. How many of you
love a good siro? Else you like a good sandwich?

Speaker 3 (18:20):
Dude?

Speaker 1 (18:20):
It's the best, Yes, good sandwich. When you went to uh,
when you flew up to visit your you're visiting your mom, right,
what is it? The first thing I see is you're
in the airport, uh eating what was it?

Speaker 2 (18:33):
Gobba gool gobba gool loves a good sandwich.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
So how is it that every time I see somebody
post something food related, which should be a fun topic.
One of you a holes has to slide in and
go yo, why don't you tell them to get rid
of sheet oils or this particular diety, then maybe i'd
eat there. You know what, I don't want you to
eat there.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
You're annoying.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
Okay, if you don't want to eat there because of
what they put in? Why are you telling some rando
on Twitter who just ate there doesn't own the place
to go, like lobby the owner to change something when
when frankly, you probably didn't even know what they're using.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
You don't even know oil they're using. Well, you're not
using an.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Oil for an Italian sub, which was the thread I'm in,
The hell are you talking about? You're using olive oil.
If you do vinegar and oil, it's self evident, and
that's not a seed.

Speaker 3 (19:23):
Oil, right right? Like I want my Italian sub to
be dripping, do you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Yeah? I liked a little like a light.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
I'm aware of oil.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
That's me and and but that's the that's the that's
the discussion you should have, right. That's how normal people
used to debate things like no, the best Italian sub
is this restaurant and some guy I'd be like, oh,
hell no, it's this restaurant, here's why, and then there'd
be a debate. And that was very useful because.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
Then me, as a consumer who maybe has any eating
it either, I'm gonna have a really good idea about
about which both subs right, and then I can go
eat it.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
I go eat both, and it's great.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
But when you come in, all of you weirdos with
your your and I'm sorry, I'm gonna throw this out.
Some of you are maha weirdos, okay, and and and
instead of just enjoying life and having a discussion and
asking questions so you can inform yourself about your own
eating preferences, right, maybe you find out they do the

(20:22):
fries in peanut oil or a canola or something that
you don't like, and then you go, all right, I'm
gonna make a conscious decision not to eat there, or
when I eat there, I'm not gonna order this thing
that's fried. Hey, maybe when i'm there, I'm gonna tell
the owner of the reason I'm not ordering it is
because of this, and they're not they're they're probably not
gonna care, but maybe they hear it. Enough and then

(20:43):
they care. No, you got to come in and you
got to ruin every food discussion on the planet so
you can virtue your virtue signaling. You know that, right,
I mean this is every topic ever though on social media. Yes,
And I'm just like I was just I was in
a great food threat yesterday.

Speaker 3 (21:00):
It doesn't matter what you're posting or you know, and
you can be in the best mood. There's somebody that's
gonna come around. The fun suckers are gonna come around,
and they're just gonna suck the fun right out.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
And it's I don't eat there because I heard they
make the fries like that bar.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
But nobody just talking about the fries. We're asking about
it's Italian subs.

Speaker 3 (21:18):
Listen. I've come across stuff on social media and it's
very apparent that the person writing is very happy and
they're full of joy write and they're enjoying it and
they're in a great mood. But there's been times where
I read something and I might have a differing opinion
of them, but I realize that they are in a
great state of mind. It doesn't really affect me, So
have at it right, Like it's not my mission to

(21:39):
destroy their joy.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Like no, you can engage in a way where you're like, yeah,
oh that does sound good, but have you tried this,
and then you're not crap it on them, But you're
also contributing, right because the thread is it's usually like
a Reddit thread or somewhere Yelp or someone because you
type best best Italian sub in Asheville.

Speaker 2 (22:02):
Which is literally what the thread was.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
I was talking about I love Italian subs man, and
so I will hunt one up in the towns that
I think.

Speaker 3 (22:09):
Like I'm an Italian sub contosaur, you know, yes.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
Yes, And so there's this great thread I was.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
I was like, sitting there, I'm like, oh, this place
looks good, and then I go and I check the
photos out. It's probably that's really, it's probably not healthy,
and inevitably like a bunch of comments like why you
shouldn't eat there because they have Well, it's just it's
you're just as annoying when you're like I I heard
they they make the thing that I'm not even gonna

(22:36):
ask about right now. I'm not even eating they use.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
This particular oil. Why are they trying to kill you?

Speaker 1 (22:42):
Is the same as they didn't have a rainbow sticker out.
You should boycott. You're just as obnoxious. You realize that, right,
You're just as bad because it has nothing to do
with why I'm here. And let me just tell you,
and they probably woke as hell.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
And I don't care.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
If you go to Asheville and you want an Italian
sub that might be one of the best. It's probably
the best I've tasted in North Carolina. Let me start
that fight. It's on this amazing.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
Facaca so good.

Speaker 1 (23:14):
Is at a restaurant called Flower, which is a food
hall where obnoxious kids roam and ask you where your
kids are, and then you tell them that you don't
have kids because you sold them because they were obnoxious,
and then their mom shoots you, daggers. But why she
let them run around a food hall asking everyone where
their kids are? Because maybe my kids got eaten by
a bear And now you've triggered me. Okay, So I'm

(23:36):
in that food hall sw downtown Asheville, this restaurant called Flower,
not like the flower, but like the ingredient. Goorder the
Italian sub and is it made in seed oil? I hope, so,
I hope it's made in seed oil, made out of
baby Dodos. Okay, I don't I don't care what they're.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Making this with. It's so good, it's so good. I
want them to have brought the Dodo back just to
kill them, to make the oil to make that sub.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
So I know what the trick is. Ross you ever
had a baby Dodo oil dip sub?

Speaker 3 (24:13):
I don't know. Perhaps I don't know. I don't think. Yeah,
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
I don't know if that's what it's made with.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
But I don't care that you came in there and
you're like, oh, they use that ingredient in the bread
and forcat your bread that they use in yoga match
because you read a Subway article.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Whatever, Like there's really this thing in social media because
this is part of a bigger conversation. Yes, you know
about stealing other people's joy. There's people that are just
miserable and they feel like they have to spread this
all the time to other people, and.

Speaker 2 (24:41):
It's like they're self inflicted misery.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
But there's also a thing where it's like, you know,
once upon a time, it was okay not to have
an opinion on everything. You don't need to have an
opinion on everything. It's okay not to care about things.
But now it's like, especially if you make your living
in social media at these grifters, they have to have
an opinion on absolutely everything, and that's not normal. That
is a lot of times people will ask me about things.

(25:04):
They like, what do you think, I'm like, I don't,
I don't, I don't know I have any I have
any opinion.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
That you Ashville Italian subs two weeks ago, I'd be.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Like, h but like, and they'll come across something they
don't really know anything about, but they're like, oh, I
have to have an opinion on this, and I have
to express it, and I have to put into words
and have to type it, and I have to send it.
You don't it's okay to just keep scrolling, or it's
okay that if you see somebody that's in the middle
of like obviously they're very happy about something, you don't
need to poop all over it.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
Man. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
Yeah, Like, give an example. Okay, I've been I've been posting,
you know, about my you know, I you know, I've
been reading the Bible, and I post about every day
I've seen you post something. I'm reading the entire thing
in three hundred and sixty five days in a year.
That's that's my goal.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
It's just what the you know, the span of what
you read. Sometimes you get into like a little introspective shirt. Yeah,
just my thoughts up every morning to me.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
And I'm really enjoying it and it's really changed my
life and I love it.

Speaker 2 (25:53):
Have you thought of reading the Necronomicon?

Speaker 4 (25:55):
No?

Speaker 3 (25:55):
So here's the thing, So I post about it, you know,
so it's like day eighteen, I read, you know, Second
Chronicles nineteen twenty one whatever. This wasn't yesterday, but this
has happened recently. Somebody somebody posts underneath it. You know,
you're gonna have to read this more than once, you know,
I don't know at the point of the shut up, dude. Really,

(26:16):
I'm not gonna understand the entire Bible within one reading,
no crap, dude. But I'm enjoyed. Why do you what
is the point of your post? So you know, what
you do, you get sent to the void. You are
muted immediately, because this is something that has changed my
life and it is inspiring and it is good. And
you're trying to poop all over this. What are you doing, dude?
What is the point of your post. Yeah, it's people

(26:37):
like that that push people away from the faith. It's
like this this like or whatever it is. Yeah, these
like super pious people where you know better than I
do because it's only my first reading through it. Don't
steal that joy from me.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
What do you reading in the original Latin? Right? Yeah,
you don't read it?

Speaker 3 (26:53):
No, you didn't mean anything because you ever read it
in the original Aramic? What do you do?

Speaker 1 (27:00):
Yeah, that's a good that's a great example, just like
so dumb, except I would argue that the Bible is
a lot more important than an Italian sub that if
you get me to not eat Italian sub right, right,
that's fine. But if you if you turned so many
ways trying to you know, figure out.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
Yeah, No, it's it's like I said, it's a bigger
it's a bigger conversation, and it's people that that's how
they live on social media. It is so miserable and
it's a horrible way to live your life.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
You know.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Again, it's realize, you're the you're the you're the keyboard activist, right, correct,
You're all the people you hate, Yes, you're all the
people you remember we went on Twitter and everybody had
their their logo picture blacked out for bl M, and you're.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
Like, oh, these people so stupid. You're them, you're that.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
Congratulations you've achieved it. By the way, my email is
now filled with people recommending Italian subs, which I'm gonna
tell you might have been part of the plot. But
they're doing so not with oh you're stupid, right, they're.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
Doing it with like, hey man, you try to sing
in smith.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
Could you share the list with me please for research?
All right, this is I appreciate it. Gothams apparently is
very good. That's that's the one in Smithfield.

Speaker 4 (28:17):
There.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
The guy's eaten at Gothams. I remember sometimes they go
to a little brown jug.

Speaker 3 (28:24):
I don't tell.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
I just kind of sit there on the side.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
So anyway, uh but yeah, if you go to Asheville,
go to the SNW food hall, go to Flowers. It's
right next to the Buckston Chicken Buckston Chicken Buckston Barbecue.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
I know many of you know. They they were chicken
sandwich was rated the best chicken sandwich in America. And
they have now done just a chicken joint.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
And it's also in that food hole, and there's a
huge line right next to his flower and that Italian
sub will change your life.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
So good and.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
I and again it might be it's probably dipped in kitten.
I don't care. I don't care. It's so good and
adorable kittens. In fact, you can hear a mewing in
the back and you're just like.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
Give me that sub. A.

Speaker 4 (29:13):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
You guys talk about Italian restaurants a lot. Which ones
do you actually like? Though?

Speaker 3 (29:20):
I mean, I would probably have to go with the
Olive Garden. I don't know, you've never pointed this.

Speaker 4 (29:24):
Yeah, I know I.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
Personally, I mean, I'm by his opinion. It's it's authentic
Italian cuisine. The chefs are trained in Tuscany, so that
I would.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
Probably Ross doesn't drink anything but Tuscan waters in the
studio right now.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
That's what I bathe them. Correct, Yeah, it's you know.

Speaker 2 (29:40):
How the queen used to use virgin blood. Ross goes
with Tuscan.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
Speaking of the Queen, So I saw Cassie Clark posting
yesterday on x about like, hey, these are like some
of the best places to eat in North Carolina. Add
to the list, And I was so tempted to write
Olive Garden in wake Forest I didn't know I behave myself.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
It's this close, you know, that's where I see some
of the seat oil stuff too, is on her post
and she of all the people, she yeah, she'll do stuff,
but most of her stuff is just I don't want
to say it's dumb, but she's dumb.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
Do you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (30:10):
It's like people arguing over barbecue and stuff. It's it's
it's fun dumb.

Speaker 3 (30:14):
Yeah right, it's fine. I was about to say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
And then somebody's got to slide in there and just
ruin it, just ruin it.

Speaker 2 (30:22):
Don't be those people. Be passionate about what you eat
and if you want to be if you want to
sit there and you want to be very sure about
what you put in your body, I respect that one
hundred percent, one hundred percent. I'm very conscientious.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
I I I eat uh and I know a lot
of people is just when you know, I eat very
differently than I used to even five years ago, like
incredibly differently, and.

Speaker 2 (30:45):
I and I'm glad for it. I'm happy for it.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
But you know how, I you know how something you're going, Oh,
I didn't know that. That's why because I don't tell
you accepting like small individual things.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
You know why, because I know you don't care. You
don't give a crap, So stop ruining my Italian sub
things where I'm just trying to figure out where a
good Italian sub is. All right, all right?

Speaker 1 (31:12):
Eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four.
I'm glad we had this discussion. And now I got
to come back and then do the Pixar thing. I
didn't even get to it, but don't worry, it's worth it.
Hang on cause I've got a lot of email over roster.
Were we getting emails on the getting cut off on
the app last week?

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Too? Right? I think? So?

Speaker 3 (31:31):
Yeah, I know they started last week.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Started last week. I understand that that's going on with
the iHeartRadio app. We have we have told the powers
that be, well sometimes they update stuff. And so here's
what I'd say. If you're gonna stream, if it's possible,
I understand it's not possible for anybody. Try to listen
on either ninety four five or what OL six point one,

(31:52):
and if you're streaming, I can't maybe on a computer.
The computer stream is different than the app stream. And
I don't know why because I don't really.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
Have anything to do with that. I'm just on the
yelling into the microphone end, but.

Speaker 3 (32:06):
I hear you.

Speaker 1 (32:07):
I apologize for that, and trust ma'mly as mad as
you because it impacts my ratings.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
So you know, people get mad at me, they send
me stuff, and like, listen.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
To Ross keeps screwing all this stuff.

Speaker 3 (32:16):
Up, right, I listen, I have no power because.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
He has only that he's not read the Bible more
than once and.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
I haven't even translated it from Hebrew to Greek. So
I mean, obviously I'm wasting my time here.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
Oh geez.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
Anyway, I appreciate your prideful piousness. Thank you so much.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
Good for you.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
No, but for real, I listen. I don't have any
control over the app. I have no control of the
app in the studio. I do not run the show
on the app. I do not edit the app, and
I have no power over the app's commercials. That is
not what I do at all. Like it's not here.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
So so like we've told them, they're aware of it,
and I hope they get it worked out.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
Real shit, and I apologize for that, so but.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
Try trust if Ross or I tried to fix the
app it would be so much worse.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
You have no idea.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Okay, And by the way, thank you for proving my
point right for emails like this, right because I figured out.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
Who the seed oil people are, Like, oh, I've seen you.
I wouldn't take any food advice off you. Then you shouldn't.
You know why, because the last thing I want to
do is run into.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
You in a restaurant that I like and have you
ruined my day by meeting you.

Speaker 3 (33:28):
So so we do this whole segment talking about these people,
and these people are the ones that speak up. You
are the person. Yeah, you're it, You're it.

Speaker 2 (33:34):
You're it, bro. I'm sorry I gendered you. I don't
know if you're bro.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
Somee tells me you're not even that, So yeah, no,
please whatever, let me Let me just tell you this.
If you felt a need to be smug about this,
and you're not Joe, if you're joking, then I just
didn't pick up. If you felt a need to be smug,
never go anywhere I recommend, because I don't want to
run into you.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Please, that's all I'm asking. Please.

Speaker 1 (33:59):
And while some of you were very helpful in talking
about great sub places, that's awesome. Some of you even
recommended what you like to eat at home, but didn't
tell me I had to. But also some of you
were like, why don't you just make your own Italian sub?
Here's the seventy four ingredients you need, and.

Speaker 3 (34:15):
They that's not the conversation.

Speaker 1 (34:18):
And by the way, I want to be clear, some
of you recommended subs you like to make at home,
but without preaching about it. And I appreciate that because
a couple of these, like the salami guy that looks good,
man that looks very good. But like, if I'm telling
you I want to go to a place and have
somebody do it for me, it's because I don't want to.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
I don't want to. I don't want to hassle with that.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
Okay, Sometimes I just want Italian sub on the fast
And sometimes you got one place that's the best and
you go there, but if you're traveling, you can't go
there because it's a one off. So then you get
into conversations about which fast food Italian sub is the place.
And Ross and I had that conversation and we agree.
We agreed, Jersey mics. It's not even close that Ross

(35:02):
likes that you like the regular Italian one with all
the oil.

Speaker 2 (35:05):
We gotta get it.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
MIC's way. I love it so much, like it's become
like a holiday thing for me, like my birthday or
Follo's day. That's what I want, that's what he wants.
That's awesome, And it's not every day, right, I can't believe.

Speaker 2 (35:15):
There's such a loser. You wouldn't drive that place at Ashville.

Speaker 3 (35:18):
So it's like, yeah, I'll order the Giant too, but
it's not every day I'm eating an entire loaf of bread.
Yeah no, I eat the entirely giant one. That's what
I eat.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
But it's not like it's yourself in a coma.

Speaker 3 (35:27):
It's so good, it's so good, But I'm not saying
every day, right, Yeah no, this is you see this,
Like I said, it's part of a bigger topic and
conversation of how people seem to interact on social media,
because the same goes with me. People telling you build
your own sandwich. It went for me for like home improvement.
It's like, hey, I'm looking for somebody to you know back,

(35:48):
I said this a while ago, looking for someone to
do gutters in my house. And you have that one
person that's like Why are you hiring someone to do
gutters on your house? You could do that by yourself,
and here's the twenty steps to do it.

Speaker 1 (35:58):
I'm like, dude, personally, somebody would die, right if Ross
is doing his own gutters.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
Literally, Clark Griswold is based on Ross doing his own maintenance. Okay,
where he's hanging on the gutters.

Speaker 3 (36:11):
Just give the gutters and cut them and hang them
up on my house. Are you insane?

Speaker 1 (36:15):
I've I've, i've i have made custom gutters, but I can.
Once again, not to say you don't want it's a
pain in the ass.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
Yes, yeah, not to say people can't do that.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
I'm just saying for somebody who doesn't do it on
the regular, I'm sure there's gutter people you're like, no,
we do it, and that's great.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
Sure, And by the way, you should want me to
hire you.

Speaker 3 (36:32):
Right, And you're professional and you have a skill and
you should get paid for it.

Speaker 2 (36:35):
And you have the equipment.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
There's a couple of pieces that make life a lot
easier than I didn't have. But you guys do However,
I'm not doing that, but you're putting the addition onto
your own house, right right, Well, did.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
You build your own edition.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
Not understand that ross is uh yeah, you look at
putting a new wing on. Yeah, you don't go addition,
it's a wing when it's a manner.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
Well, we've decided, you know, because we like our house.
We don't want to move. We've been there forever. I
paid fifteen years is into the mortgage and I know
moving is a pain in the ass and the value
is going up. Right, And we have a baby coming
at the end of November, right, baby number two is coming,
and we're like, well, this is build an edition, so
we're doing that.

Speaker 2 (37:10):
Yeah, a wing, the wing, baby wing. Yeah, but you're
not doing it yourself. Come on, man, look let me
tell you. Me and my two buddies put the deck
that's on our mountain cavanon. It's the worst deck ever.

Speaker 3 (37:26):
Could we do it?

Speaker 2 (37:27):
We were like sixteen.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
I will argue that it's better than it's better than
some because we can build stuff kind of because that's
just a skill, a ranch skill, but we use construction
lumber and just it's not and the temperature swing in
the mountains is pretty aggressive. But you know what, it
holds a barbecue and some chairs and if you drink

(37:49):
a bunch of beer up there and you walk to
the edge of it.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
The woods are right there.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
And I don't have to go inside of the bathroom
like it's serving all the purposes. But can we just
for a moment, just before you're ready to own somebody
who's not in a it's not a conversation where it's
meant to own somebody, not seriously. It's one thing if
you got beef where you're like, you know, Chicago Pizza,
New York Pizza, and you guys are going.

Speaker 2 (38:13):
Back and forth.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
That's fine, that's fun, be fun, but stop ruining everything
and stop showing your butt when you then send emails
in and I immediately know who's now in the void.
Now you're in the void on that email address, and
you know who you are. So every time you yell,
it goes to the crazy folder with the guy who

(38:35):
keeps telling me that the secret da Bouru's coming to
kill us. I haven't read one of that guy's emails
in years. Occasionally I go to the folder and look,
you're now in that phone. You're in the Nabouru folder
because you had.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
To be an ass. Do you understand that you're in
there with.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
Zach whose mom is the you know, and then the
guy the other day who gives erotic massages to lonely businessman.
You're in the nabourumic erotic massage. Zach's mom's a hooker folder.
Because you can't just be normal. And yet I talk
to you, you obviously listen, and so you have to

(39:15):
hear me. And now you can never respond to me
and have me look at your thing.

Speaker 2 (39:21):
So it is possible to be done.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
You can be like Boston Paul, where you're painting in
the butt, but you're fun, right, It's that simple.

Speaker 4 (39:31):
All right?

Speaker 2 (39:31):
What is this now? People are all right?

Speaker 1 (39:35):
See look at that rose, I got like twenty seven
Italian sub recommendations. I'm gonna corelate this and make it
get you a copy. All right, Let's see here. How
about how about a good story. It's gonna start as
a bad story, but it's a good story. A Disney

(39:55):
cruise teetered on tragedy but instead served up a fairy tale.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
Dude, I let ross.

Speaker 1 (40:02):
I also love that people think this is rigged. And
then it's like how Disney cast members that are stunt people.

Speaker 3 (40:11):
I mean I've been to those shows before, like back
I don't know if they still have it, but like
at Hollywood Studios they had the Indiana Jones sort of
stunt show. It was amazing. Yeah, yeah, so it was like.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
That, what's going on here?

Speaker 1 (40:20):
All they had to do was throw a five year
old child into the ocean or whatever.

Speaker 3 (40:27):
You believe. That's an actual five year old child.

Speaker 4 (40:30):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (40:31):
I don't know if it's file is this kid if
you guys haven't heard the story. So Disney cruise and
like a child fell overboard and Dad immediately jumped in.
And then of course Disney with their protocol because people
are like, oh my gosh, there's people in the water,
seemingly executed perfectly. They got down, they got the rescue boats,

(40:51):
they fished Dad and the kid out of the water.
What I don't understand is people are like, you know,
dad should have got somebody. I don't even have kids,
And I got to tell you, I'm pretty sure I'm
jumping in. They're on the fourth deck, okay.

Speaker 2 (41:04):
Which is still that's quite a ways up.

Speaker 1 (41:06):
They're on the fourth deck, but your kid just went
in theress.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
I'm assuming you're going in, right.

Speaker 3 (41:12):
I can't even swim and I'm going in.

Speaker 2 (41:16):
Yeah, I mean you yell at people, hey, hey, my
ki't you know?

Speaker 1 (41:20):
So people know what's going on, and then you expect
the people on there and obviously the Disney folk executed.
So they're on Disney Dream and it's all over social media.
I mean, obviously a bunch of people are taking pictures.
The crew board the Disney Dreams swiftly rescued the two
guests from the water. According to Disney Cruise Line spokesperson,

(41:41):
the vessel was headed back to Fort Lauderdale having left. Oh,
they have a private but I think several of the
cruise companies have a private island. So they're on that
last leg. They're the Bahamas headed back to Lauderdale. Yeah,
their lookout k lighthouse points, so that's their private islands. So,
I mean they're still on the ocean there, but so

(42:03):
they're cruising back. They're on the fourth deck and passenger
accounts flooded social media as the mob or a man
overboard alert blaired over the ship's intercom and the crew
sprang into action. Crew members immediately through life preservers and
then launched the rescue boat, which looks like a little
yellow tender, and by the time they reached the pair

(42:24):
because the ship's still moving right, they're headed back to Lauderdale.
So and you know, you don't stop those things on
a dime. But whatever process they put in, they you know,
Disney Disney crew executed. The father was reportedly treading water
for about twenty minutes keeping his daughter afloat before the

(42:45):
rescue boats hit him. It looks like everyone's going to
be okay. The girl reportedly fell from a fourth floor deck,
so it looks like they were in their stateroom. Oh no, no, okay,
so that's where the walking jogging track is. Actually they
were out on the walking track. The railing is fortified
with placy. I'm assuming that the Disney ships have fortified

(43:07):
railings because kids. So it's not clear how the girl
ended up pitching over the side. You remember the last
story I did where a kid went in the water
and one of the cruise ships. You remember, like the
drunk parent was holding the kid over the railing and
dropped the kid. Now that kid made it too, but
that parent ended up facing some charges. But yeah, immediately

(43:29):
people are like, dad should have got somebody put his
own life in danger. What if they didn't see him?

Speaker 2 (43:33):
I don't think that all that was going through Dad's head.

Speaker 3 (43:36):
So I read this story yesterday, yeah, before you sent
it in prep. Like I said, I can't sway my sink.
I go right to the bottom. So I read this
and I'm reading about this hero Dad, and my Dad's incredible.
And then I start thinking. I'm like, oh, what if
I'm ever on a cruise which would never happen, but
what if I was right? Because Titanic? So what if
I'm on a cruise and this happens and Lincoln jumps in?
What would I do? And like, well, I would definitely

(43:57):
jump in. And then I'm like, well, how do I
tread water? So go to groc and I'm like, how
do you tread water? And It's given me the instructions
and I'm sitting on the couch with my legs up
and I'm like making the cycling motion my legs, seeing
if I can do it, you know, And Lincoln is like,
Daddy's doing, Daddy's doing? What is Daddy doing? And I'm like,
I'm practicing in case you ever jump off the Disney
cruise ship. And he's like, oh, no, did you say that? No,
he just goes back to playing his game.

Speaker 1 (44:18):
Okay, okay, because you don't want him bringing that up again.
He's like, jump off ship.

Speaker 2 (44:24):
No, no, that's not what I said.

Speaker 3 (44:26):
But then I realized I would never be in that situation.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
So do you have you ever? Can you get the
swimming lessons for Lincoln.

Speaker 3 (44:34):
Or we've been to like yeah, no, we've been to
friends pools where like your feet can touch the bottom,
so were fine.

Speaker 1 (44:39):
Yeah, but I mean like professional lessons for me or
for him, Well maybe for both of you.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (44:46):
Maybe doing is a fair I never thought about it.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know, because it look you tread.
I went snorkeling uh down in the Caribbean a few
years ago. I'm not a big I'm not a diver guy.
I you know todd schnit's a big diver. You try
to even to go diving with him. I'm like, yeah,
I'm good, you know, with the whole tank and everything,
and say yeah, we'll get you certified.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
It'll be great.

Speaker 1 (45:09):
He goes down and Cayman a lot to do that.
He's like, you gotta come on down. One of the
weekends were down there, and I'm like, one that sounds
like a super rich guy. Activity and I don't need
a hobby or I gotta buy a bunch of stuff.

Speaker 3 (45:18):
Then we're gonna go play. Then we're gonna do polo.
Yeah right, I just good for your horse.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
I've got enough.

Speaker 1 (45:26):
I got like camping gear, that's I got to have
seen him out of camping gear that's already that already
burns a hole. And don't even then you get into
the hunting stuff. You don't you want to know. So
with that in mind, I don't need another expensive hobby.
But also it's a lot of work, man. And I
was just snorkling. I was just snorkeling on a reef
and I pop up in the boat's like a few
it's like two football fields away, and you're like, oh,

(45:48):
that'll be no problem to get over there. But I'm
also in this bay, and so the water's coming into
the bay, so I'm going against the current.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
I mean, you can tire yourself.

Speaker 3 (45:56):
Oh that's what I was gonna ask. So you're talking
about like having the gear on and going towards the
ship and the current and you're trying to get Yeah,
but I mean that takes like treading water for twenty minutes.
Holding your kid takes a lot of energy.

Speaker 2 (46:06):
It took me about twenty minutes to get over the boat.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
I had to stop twice just to get over there,
because again I could stay up.

Speaker 2 (46:13):
I'm a pretty good swimmer. I've been swimming on my lafe.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
I'm a very good swimmer, and even in cold water,
I can swim pretty well. Because that's basically what you
had to deal with swimming in lakes up there, which
that really SAPs you. That being said, now you're dealing
with another person, but you're also dealing with another person.

Speaker 2 (46:28):
Anyone who's been a lifeguard, they train you about this.

Speaker 1 (46:30):
You're dealing with another person is probably gonna be freaking
out if they don't know how to swim, and like
that can get people killed. We got these stories in
North Carolina where somebody goes out to rescue somebody because
the riptides and doesn't go well. So, you know, good
on Dad, and good on the Disney crewe did happen.
But also, who are you weirdos thinking they're stunt people?
Can you imagine what a horrible stunt that would be.

Speaker 3 (46:54):
There's someone in the ship booing the show, you know
what I mean?

Speaker 1 (46:57):
Yeah, Like she doesn't look like she's drowning enough. I'm
not buying it. I'm going to the casine. I didn't
even know if they have a casino on the Disney cruise,
but I would think they do, just so parents could
be like, have five minutes of respite, man, or can
you just handy kids on?

Speaker 3 (47:12):
You're on the wrong cruise, dude.

Speaker 1 (47:15):
Well, I look, I saw the Disney cruise when I
was on the one, the one Caribbean Cruise. I went
on like the ship was there, and I just I
remember looking across over going nope, right.

Speaker 2 (47:25):
Because you can hear it. You can just hear it
over there in the distance.

Speaker 1 (47:29):
And I was on a Holland America ship, which isn't
really a kid's thing, And I'm like, oh, I made
the right decision here.

Speaker 2 (47:34):
But then I realized I don't like cruisings, so whatever,
all right? Seven twenty three, hang on.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
I haven't seen a flood of people coming forward for
sentence heat yet, but I know there's a lot of
discussion going on in the background.

Speaker 2 (47:46):
I saw. I actually saw some pretty good.

Speaker 1 (47:48):
Analysis by I can't believe I'm going to say this,
some of the more mainstream media, they seem to have
a pretty good beat on who the Maybes are so
sure it's because they listened to this show. But you know,
as of yet, no big major announcement. We'll keep following
it a couple other stories we got to get to.
In fact, let me just just because I have to

(48:11):
talk about this now, dude.

Speaker 2 (48:14):
It's so funny.

Speaker 1 (48:14):
People are writing me to find out if they're in
the crazy Nabouru Guy folder, and the answer is, if
you were, I wouldn't see your email asking. But no,
that's a special level of hell. So now it's full
of seed oil evangelists, naboo us coming to kill us people,
and just anti Semite. So you know, I have fun

(48:37):
in there. I did think one day and this, and
I realized it'd be a lot of work. I thought
it'd be really funny one day to go in to
the folder, find the two worst people I could think
of in there, and then create a rule where anytime
you lunatics emailed, even though I don't see it, it
auto emailed the other psycho.

Speaker 2 (48:59):
And then you guys would.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
Yell at each other about seed oils and killer planets
just and then I would go read your stuff because
I want to, because I realize you're you're unhinged? Should
you be losing it with each other? And then I thought, nah,
because if one of you murdered the other one, there's
probably a certain level of culpability I'd have there, But
it'd be hilarious.

Speaker 2 (49:20):
Ross. You'd watch that thread right, like, here's what I did.
I made it so that.

Speaker 1 (49:24):
They email each other. But yeah, I don't I don't want.
I don't want to have to get called to the
stand for anything. So we did not did not do that,
But we are going to do this because holy hell,
this is hilarious.

Speaker 2 (49:38):
And to do it, we need this.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
But it'll play great, great, great great great.

Speaker 3 (49:51):
No, it's not.

Speaker 1 (49:52):
It's literally the disconnected the endpoint. It's not that, it's
not plain.

Speaker 2 (49:56):
So what Ross?

Speaker 1 (49:58):
Will you go to my button bar plee and fire
the Florida Man song and then I will do the
story after the.

Speaker 2 (50:05):
Florida mand song. It just locked me out of my
next gen. Thank you, You're not gonna stop me.

Speaker 3 (50:12):
Florida Man.

Speaker 5 (50:13):
Florida Man is something in the wanderty errors hand that
made you do all that crazy crap. It's like the
state is one beet dumb ass trap. Nowhere else has
the Florida man. It is almost like as the weird
Factor climbs and you find out.

Speaker 3 (50:30):
It have been in Florida every time. Florida, then Florida man.

Speaker 5 (50:37):
If anyone can cheer me, if you know, you can
to mind life be crazy, but of course, but it's
not as bad crap crazy as yours. Nowhere else are
you gonna find him? They're so used to it, they
don't find him. Hooray for Florida man.

Speaker 1 (50:53):
Alrighty, Florida man, And this is Florida medical man.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Ross. I am sending you the.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
Story right now because it's got a old mugshot in it.

Speaker 2 (51:05):
All right, what is this thing's problem? Did reload it
though it was going on? I honestly I think this ros.

Speaker 1 (51:16):
I think all of the computers in the company are
jack because that iOS update. I'm convinced that's what it is,
even though they get it worked out for me. All right,
A Florida man who was rushed to a hospital after
being located on the ground with a stab.

Speaker 2 (51:31):
Wound to his chest.

Speaker 1 (51:34):
All right, so this point, he just there's a guy
who got stabbed. He's you know, people see him now.
They don't even really know the full story. They know
that he got into a dispute in a parking lot
with somebody, and they rush him to Bayfront Hospital in
Saint Pete and he is now in surgery, so they

(51:56):
can they can go ahead and stop the bleeding and
make sure he lives. However, during the surgery, one of
the nurses notices something, and that's something is that this
dude had a large glass crack pipe, a lighter, and
a lot of tinfoil containing crack in his butt. So

(52:20):
at that point, after the nurse quote located the items,
she informed police and when he came out of surgery,
which was what's successful, he was arrested for possession of
cocaine possession of drug paraphernalia, so one felony, one misdemeanor,

(52:41):
and he posted bund.

Speaker 2 (52:43):
Now I have a couple of questions. One, this is
a good reminder.

Speaker 1 (52:47):
If this is why you know the old thing where
your mom's like, make sure you work clean underwear in
case you get hit by a bus.

Speaker 2 (52:53):
Right. Also, make sure.

Speaker 1 (52:56):
You don't have an entire drug kit stashed in your
butt when you go into surgery. However, ross, do you
remember when I said the guy got stabbed in the chest, right, oh,
so he wasn't stabbed in the butt. No, so why
are you looking in his butt?

Speaker 3 (53:12):
What is she doing?

Speaker 2 (53:13):
You purv? Yeah, And I've been in surgery before. Did
you guys look at my butt? What? Not? Really paranoid?

Speaker 1 (53:22):
I had to go surgery in my arm when I
was like, hey, I can jump a motorcycle because I
saw that guy in TV do it.

Speaker 2 (53:27):
In the end, I couldn't. I mean I did, I
just didn't stick the landing and then the bone in
my arms.

Speaker 1 (53:34):
Like what if I'm outside your arm? So that didn't work.
And then I had surgery after my car accident because
I'm like, I can shoot deer hanging out a window
on an icy road in the middle of December and Wyoming,
or excuse me, coyotes out of a window. Well, my
buddy drives even though he's not paying attention. So those
are the two times I had so oh, and then

(53:56):
I had no, I had surgery a third time.

Speaker 2 (53:57):
Did you guys look at my butt? Like?

Speaker 1 (54:01):
I like, if I go in for you know, the colonoscopy, Sure,
I know that you know the butt stuff's happening, But
if I when I had my arm, and I bet
the pins put in my arm. Were you guys, I'm
just asking for you in the medical field. Why are
you looking at somebody's butt if they're having if there it's.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
A chest wound?

Speaker 1 (54:22):
What what's up to explain that to me? Help me understand,
because now I'm like, do I have to do? I
have to write no, like and sharp beyond there. So
you guys leave it alone. What are you doing in there?
Eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four
you know what ross we should have called doctor Campbell.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
No.

Speaker 3 (54:43):
I was just saying, yeah, I know, I was thinking that.

Speaker 1 (54:47):
Why why are you any any of you who work
in in in in an operating room?

Speaker 2 (54:53):
Why are you doing that? Well?

Speaker 3 (54:55):
You know how like okay, I have a theory and
I'm just kept going here, I have no idea because
you know, just to clarify, not a doctor, Yeah, yeah,
some people get confused. Never been to medical school so
just yet so I haven't. But you know how like
when you die, you tend to like, you know, this
stuff comes out right. Yeah, so maybe during surgery, maybe
that also happens. Maybe well it.

Speaker 2 (55:18):
Said she located it and they removed it.

Speaker 3 (55:21):
Maybe they have to make sure you're like clear. So
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (55:28):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
Each of the time, each of the times I had surgery,
I did not have crack in my butt, so it
never got brought up.

Speaker 3 (55:37):
So I don't know if can you imagine if it's
there and you forgotten, you go in for surgery and
then you remember, and you're like, I gotta leave for
like two seconds.

Speaker 1 (55:44):
How much you want to bet he said, that's not mine?
I know, he's like, oh, why the doctor put crack
in my butt?

Speaker 3 (55:51):
You shoot from up the planet. It's like La cops,
you know, oh yeah, or.

Speaker 1 (55:55):
The chick on on patrol we're blewing through the window.
Didn't you tell me that was one of her excuses.

Speaker 2 (56:01):
I blew into my car, into my purse, which happens
all the time.

Speaker 1 (56:06):
I guess, all right, medical people, all right, creepy medical people.
Why are you digging around in the patients? But if
they're having surgery for the upper part of.

Speaker 2 (56:13):
Their body, make it makes sense? All right? Is race
stagic there?

Speaker 1 (56:20):
Maybe he knows. We'll talk to him. All right, we
get some call, We got a call coming in. He's
not there yet. You know why, because you heard about this.
He wants no part of it. He wants no part
of it. Geez, man, that is crazy stuff. I'm gonna

(56:40):
have to I don't know. Can you put that on
like a d n R but a DNLMB do not
look at my butt? Can you do that as a
medical for I have so many questions?

Speaker 2 (56:54):
What is this?

Speaker 3 (56:56):
Oh? All right?

Speaker 2 (56:58):
Hang on, waits is right? All right? Let me let
me figure this out. Yes, David, what's up?

Speaker 1 (57:06):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (57:07):
The truth of the matter, is it this slot out?
Sometimes different things happen.

Speaker 2 (57:16):
I never I never wake up with uh. You know,
you know, I sleep a lot, sir. In fact, I
took a big old.

Speaker 1 (57:22):
Nap yesterday and I did not wake up from my nap,
uh with my bad all messed up. So so I
don't know what you're talking about now I'm getting Yeah,
all right, David didn't sound like a doctor either, Gray staging.

Speaker 2 (57:43):
Are what does your wife do? Does she work in
the medical field at all? No? Teacher? Teacher?

Speaker 4 (57:50):
All right?

Speaker 1 (57:51):
So we got a guy in Florida. He was stabbed, right,
so all they know is this is stab doue. They
bring them to the hospital they're doing they're trying to fix.
We get stabbed in the chest and during surgery a
nurse quote noticed that this guy had a crack pipe
crack and a lighter shoved in his button.

Speaker 2 (58:08):
Humhm, and then he got charge with that. And but
it brings up the question, have you ever had surgery?

Speaker 4 (58:13):
No?

Speaker 2 (58:14):
Okay, but if you did.

Speaker 1 (58:16):
Have surgery, especially like on your chest or something, would
you assume the medical staff's looking in your butt?

Speaker 2 (58:23):
That's very disconcerting to be because I've had surgery several times.
I don't know, like the colonoscopy. Fine, like you understand,
like you signed up for that right exactly. By the way,
was the dass looking in there? What's going I mean,

(58:44):
who knows? Right now? A little bit.

Speaker 3 (58:48):
It's kind of making me wonder the last time I.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
Like metal chastity belt. Next time, I stay out of there.
That's crazy. Yeah, you had to walk in on that. No, no,
I appreciate, no problem, no problem. What's going on? There's
a little bit of rain and.

Speaker 6 (59:03):
Yeah, a little bit. I think I mentioned it yesterday.
We get past this next two days and we should
be in real nice shape for a few right through
the holiday weekend. So if you thought about taking a
couple of extra days off Thursday right through Monday, maybe
even Tuesday, dryer weather. We'll come back in a couple
of days of less humid weather too, so that may

(59:25):
also be coming briefly now today, different set of problems
later today, probably toward evening and into early tonight. Got
to get these batches around of showers and thunderstorms that'll
come through, and we are outlook for maybe some severe weather,
so some damage winds are possible in hail, maybe a
brief tornado, and throw in there to some heavy rainfall,

(59:45):
so there may be some ponding of the water on
the roadways. You know, that isn't a criteria for a
severe thunderstorm. That would be a flood advisory of flesh
flood warning. So we may have one or both of
those things, not only a severe thunderstorm warning or two,
but maybe some flood advisories. A little tricky later this
evening into tonight. Today, we'll still get close to ninety
depends on where you are with the heat indexs and

(01:00:06):
the humidity pushing us close to one hundred more shower
storms tomorrow, but by Thursday and Friday, Independence Day and
through the weekend, humidity may start creeping up upper eighties
to low nineties. It'll stay warm, but I think a
couple of days they'll be a little bit less humidity around.

Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
Okay, all right, we'll hold you to it. Yep, all right,
thank you, and seven forty eight will take a break.
Be right back. Oh this is so egregious. Wait to
hear what they did. They did a thing which ten
years ago nobody would have cared about. But whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:00:39):
Also, we have more on the Idaho snipers situation.

Speaker 4 (01:00:44):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
It did not as many of you were predicting. I
did not turn out to be the dude that they've
been on the man hunt for who's accused of killing
his three daughters. Apparently it's another lyric ross. Did you
see what this guy's the music this dude's into Did
you read the story when you put in the stack.

Speaker 3 (01:01:03):
I don't know if it was on the phone with
Kevin Campbell. Holl he's gonna be calling us up, oh
to clarify this issue.

Speaker 2 (01:01:09):
Yeah? Oh, has he got an answer?

Speaker 4 (01:01:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:01:11):
He does.

Speaker 2 (01:01:12):
Do I want to hear it?

Speaker 3 (01:01:13):
Maybe?

Speaker 2 (01:01:14):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:01:14):
Jeez?

Speaker 1 (01:01:15):
Okay, So this guy in Idaho, did you see what
is his the music? The musician he was obsessed with?

Speaker 3 (01:01:21):
Uh York? Really? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:01:24):
After we just talked about it, what is this weird
simulation that works?

Speaker 3 (01:01:29):
That is super weird.

Speaker 1 (01:01:30):
Y Ido Killer Wes Rolie that's the last time we'll
say his name, posted a chilling online photo of himself
masked and camouflage with a belt of rifle shells, along
with the York's song lyrics claiming I'm going hunting.

Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
Yeah, there was apparently there's apparently was so much weirdness
on this guy's social media, but also the York thing
should have been a tip off. You know, it's weird.

Speaker 1 (01:01:57):
I used to work with a morning Morning were a
top forty morning guy who was a very good friend
of mine, and I remember I remember going over to
his house the first time and meeting his his now wife.

Speaker 2 (01:02:08):
So who's She's great?

Speaker 1 (01:02:09):
Right, And they were both really into York and I
just like, all right, I'm happy for you. Honestly, I
didn't know anything about her up till then. Okay, all right,
hold on, let me grab this phone call here. This
is not Campbell.

Speaker 2 (01:02:23):
We're gonna talk to Campbell coming in because he's got
apparently he's got big butt information. Uh our our our
doctor corresponded, But let's Tony, what's up?

Speaker 4 (01:02:32):
Hey? How you doing?

Speaker 1 (01:02:35):
I'm better in this dude was probably gonna go to
jail and got violated.

Speaker 2 (01:02:39):
So yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:02:41):
About the butt the you know, if you have a
had surgery, you playing soger, you know that they tell
you not to eat or drink anything in twelve.

Speaker 2 (01:02:50):
Hours before correct.

Speaker 4 (01:02:51):
Yes, yeah, that's that's that's where that's.

Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
Where she gets sick.

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
I've always been told that, so you don't vomit with
doing the Annisty show.

Speaker 4 (01:03:00):
That's that's true.

Speaker 2 (01:03:01):
That's true.

Speaker 4 (01:03:02):
But it relaxes a lot of your muscles, and they'll
they'll speaker relaxed too, you know. And and plus you
also dream and have you know, h illusions and stuff
that you don't realize you're having. I mean, I've heard
stories of guys standing up on the bed singing, you know,
with Anastasia right before they start surgery.

Speaker 2 (01:03:21):
Sipid thing by that, so you can.

Speaker 4 (01:03:23):
You could have a feeling old man, I gotta go.
Let's just go, you know, so they'll sprink to relax
on you.

Speaker 2 (01:03:29):
So they're doing right, quick quick check there.

Speaker 1 (01:03:32):
So somebody somebody in the medical field email or claiming
to be said that, uh, they might have been doing
some imaging, which actually that kind of makes sense. I
don't know why they're imaging down there, but uh, you know,
depending on the type of imaging. Uh, you know you
want to check. All right, all right, Tony, thanks for
the uh thanks for the really creepy update.

Speaker 2 (01:03:52):
There was that Campbell. I don't know if I'm enough.
Just can he wait around.

Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
Till after the top of the hour. The only got
forty five seconds, and that won't do him justice. Tell
him we'll talk to him right at eight oh five.

Speaker 3 (01:04:04):
Well, I mean, we've now had two doctors. We had
David and Toni on the air.

Speaker 2 (01:04:07):
The doctors just because they agreed with.

Speaker 3 (01:04:10):
You said people from the medical industry to call it,
and they called so clearly.

Speaker 1 (01:04:15):
I would probably know why they're written around in this
guy's butt when he stabbed in the upper chest. Coming
up on the show, we got a just horrific story
out of Germany. I don't know if tarn feather is
enough for this politician.

Speaker 2 (01:04:27):
And I wanted to be.

Speaker 1 (01:04:28):
Clear that I had the proper translation because he makes
a statement about this story in German and there's two
different there's two different ways to translate it, but both
of them are awful and they kind of mean the
same thing.

Speaker 2 (01:04:42):
So We will get to that here in just a
few minutes.

Speaker 4 (01:04:47):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:04:48):
Also, we got a governor Jazz Hands update the Governor
Tim Walls up there in Minnesota and uh an interesting
TSA story which a lot of these stories are going.

Speaker 2 (01:05:01):
To surround the heat. But first we had our Florida
mand story.

Speaker 1 (01:05:05):
And just to reiterate, let's get let's get our guest
one here because I had a medical question, and of
course we have a medical question, we'd wake up poor
doctor Kevin Campbell and make him answer.

Speaker 2 (01:05:16):
So how you doing? How you doing today, sir?

Speaker 4 (01:05:19):
I'm doing great. Great to hear from you again, Casey.

Speaker 2 (01:05:22):
How how's the boat?

Speaker 4 (01:05:25):
Oh great? We just took her down to Key West
and back and we did not wreck. We had a
good trip.

Speaker 1 (01:05:31):
I just wanted to prove to her when he's a doctor.
So now he's in Florida with a boat going to
Key West, So leave this guy.

Speaker 2 (01:05:37):
Wait were you there this weekend?

Speaker 4 (01:05:40):
No? I was there last week.

Speaker 5 (01:05:42):
I was.

Speaker 4 (01:05:42):
I was working this weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:05:43):
He Wes had their big Pride festival this weekend, so
I didn't know.

Speaker 4 (01:05:46):
Yeah, I missed that. I have to say I missed that.
I thought that Tom Tillis might have been down there.

Speaker 2 (01:05:51):
Oh no, you heard he's leaving, right, So.

Speaker 4 (01:05:54):
Yeah, you know, guitar and feather sort of probably is applicable.

Speaker 1 (01:05:58):
So all right, well, I don't think Tom Tillis is
involved in the story, but I saw it and immediately
had this question. So the story is, this is in
Saint Pete. You pratt, you have a Florida medical license.
So I figured out Kevin Cavil will know you practice
though in what the Melbourne area or what city specifically?

Speaker 4 (01:06:14):
Yeah, it's Melbourne, Vieria, Cocoa Beach round about the Space coast.

Speaker 1 (01:06:18):
All right, and so you do you stick pacemakers into
all the heart doctor stuff, So yeah, the perfect person
to ask. So this guy gets stabbed, you know, in
the upper chest, that he gets rushed to the hospital
in Saint Pete. During the course of surgery, one of
the nurses in the surgery quote locates glass crack pipe,
a lighter in a lot of tinfoil full of crack

(01:06:41):
in his prison wallet. And then I guess you guys
legally have to say something.

Speaker 2 (01:06:47):
Because they told the cops. The cops cited him, he's
out on bond, and.

Speaker 1 (01:06:51):
My question was, if they're doing surgery on the chest.
Why are they rooting around in his butt?

Speaker 2 (01:06:56):
Because I've had surgery and now I'm wondering if you
guys are rooting around in there and none of it had.

Speaker 3 (01:07:01):
To do with that.

Speaker 4 (01:07:03):
Well, you know, when people come in with a trauma code,
it alerts a trauma surge and er surge and trauma nurses,
o R anesthesia blood bank. One of the first things
we do is we assess the airway to make sure
they're breathing. We make sure they have, you know, a
blood pressure or pulse. We try to determine where the

(01:07:23):
injury is, and then there's a head to toe exam
literally and then following that we image everything before we
go to the o R because we want to know
what we're dealing with. So probably found it on routine
imaging with the X ray machine, I would suspect, because
they do quick films of everything.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
Yeah, I had a nurse right in and that was her.
That was her theory as well. So you guys aren't
just rooting around in there for something to do because
you're bored.

Speaker 4 (01:07:44):
Right, I don't think so. I've never been involved in
a trauma code like.

Speaker 2 (01:07:49):
That, but you know, you never know around here, where'd
you do at Douker?

Speaker 4 (01:07:55):
So I did my internal medicine at UVA, and I
did my cardiology and surgical training at Duke.

Speaker 2 (01:08:02):
Okay, So I just want to know if anyone all right,
So to be clear, if anyone listening, there's a chance
you may have when he was training in there, he
did not root around in your butt. So, man, dude,
you guys, just you guys, keep doing what you're doing
down there in Florida because I'm getting two or three
a week right now? Do you think I think it's
the heater?

Speaker 5 (01:08:21):
Is it just?

Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
What's what's going on? Man?

Speaker 4 (01:08:24):
Well, you know we are opening Alligator Alcatraz today. We're
going to have the down down here for our big
grand Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:08:31):
They're super I like how people are like, oh, it's true.
I can't believe Gon use alligators to guard people. Just
to be clear, you're reading it. They're gonna have human guards, right,
not alligator guards.

Speaker 4 (01:08:41):
Yeah, but they did. The Fantis did say, you know
this is great because if someone does get away, they've
got vnessa alligators to deal with. I mean it sounds
like something Ross would come up with.

Speaker 1 (01:08:50):
Well, people are very upset. I just then I thought, well,
maybe they are gonna have alligator guards. All right, thank
you for clarifying on the medical thing there. I do
appreciate it.

Speaker 4 (01:08:57):
So my pleas you guys have a great day.

Speaker 2 (01:09:00):
All right, there we go. So doctor Campbell thinks it's
imaging as well.

Speaker 3 (01:09:03):
So all right, so it sounds like we have a
split decision, right if two doctors said it was my thing,
and then that you are disrespecting that a nurse and
a doctor said it's the imaging thing. So and you
think it's because they a nurse and a doctor and
the two other ones that called in and Tony and David.

Speaker 1 (01:09:20):
Yeah, I've heard of that with like women give birth,
that it can be a problem. So somebody explained something
in way too much detail to me one time.

Speaker 2 (01:09:30):
So ah, I did not need to know that.

Speaker 1 (01:09:34):
All right, let's go ahead and let's get it. Let's
go over something else because Lord helped me. Let's go
to firefighters check this out, and then I'll do the
German story in the next segment, because it's just its
own thing.

Speaker 3 (01:09:45):
Just just wait for it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:49):
So some firefighters are suspended this is up in New
York City, including a lieutenant.

Speaker 2 (01:09:58):
What did they do?

Speaker 1 (01:09:59):
According to to the report, Uh, they were suspended for
quote giving hotties a ride on a fire truck.

Speaker 2 (01:10:07):
I'm sorry, what why.

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
Else become a firefighter if I could for just a moment.
I mean, yeah, we've seen backdraft, right, yes, you see
both the bad and then you realize you gotta let
them blow off a little steam of some hotties. Now,
if they weren't hotties and you called them hatties, then
maybe and I think, ross, what's what's hotty range for you?
Seven or an eight something around there?

Speaker 5 (01:10:31):
Right?

Speaker 3 (01:10:32):
I would probably say I would say, I would say
my wife, well, of course, yes, but so that would
be like smoking hot ten?

Speaker 1 (01:10:38):
Yeah, smoking hot ten? All right, But but you you slip,
you slip a seven in there. Maybe there's a couple
of nines, right, that's fine, you can use the term hotty.
But yeah, let's I'm gonna I'm gonna assume it's New York.
There's a lot of beautiful women up in New York.
And you know, guys, lieutenant probably got.

Speaker 2 (01:10:55):
A little riz or whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:10:56):
The kids say, Sure, yeah, okay, you tell them you
can't give them you work where there's a pole.

Speaker 2 (01:11:05):
You were places where there's a pole.

Speaker 3 (01:11:08):
Right, right, right, So if you are going to go
in that direction, right, you've got beds there. But so
if they got stuck on the firefighter pole and there,
would that be a fire hazard?

Speaker 2 (01:11:20):
Well, that could be.

Speaker 1 (01:11:21):
If it precluded the firefighters from being able to as
rapidly as possible get down.

Speaker 2 (01:11:24):
And get all the gear on and go. But it
doesn't sound like that was an issue here. Uh, they're
more concerned with quote, frat house behavior. Dude.

Speaker 1 (01:11:34):
I remember in Many I remember in Minneapolis had a
story where some firefighters had they brought some they brought
some galls back to the firehouse and then they all
hooked up in the truck and they ended up getting
in trouble for that.

Speaker 3 (01:11:47):
Yeah, that might be I don't want to do that.
That might be a bit too far.

Speaker 1 (01:11:51):
Now do you have the girls wear the hat with
the I don't know, I don't know the rules. But
if you're just giving them a ride, what's the problem.
I see the firefighters all the time, you know, every
time I go to the Food Lion when I'm in
High high Point, the food Lion right there on Lexington,
there's always a group of firefighters in that parking lot.

Speaker 2 (01:12:13):
And then they got a fire.

Speaker 1 (01:12:14):
They got a fire firehouse right literally across the street
from the station.

Speaker 2 (01:12:17):
So but every time I go that food.

Speaker 1 (01:12:19):
Line, there's a couple of firefighters in the truck going
into the food line to go ahead and get something.
You're probably listening because I've talked to a couple of
you before. You guys listen to the show. Uh, And
it's just every time I had the food line here
when I was in Greensboro last week, because I'm one
of these cheap, cheap guys who get some food for
his hotel room because I want to eat out all
the time. And the firefighters in there, and I see,
I see those college girls staring at you because you're

(01:12:41):
in earlier firefighter gear.

Speaker 2 (01:12:43):
You gotta fight them off with a stick. You guys
know what's up. So if you want to give a
ride on the truck, this is where the Rosses is are.
I think this the series of today's show is fun
haters and now they're ruining everything. Let them give them
a ride.

Speaker 5 (01:13:00):
On.

Speaker 2 (01:13:00):
Uh, you know nothing.

Speaker 1 (01:13:02):
Don't let them run the hose for an actual fire.
But what's the problem.

Speaker 4 (01:13:08):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:13:08):
The group landed in trouble after video captured by two
young women, laughing, waving to onlookers, and snapping selfies while
hanging out the truck's cab window.

Speaker 2 (01:13:18):
Man, where's the photo of this?

Speaker 3 (01:13:19):
I mean, it's not like they're steering the back of
the fire truck.

Speaker 2 (01:13:22):
Right, they're not.

Speaker 1 (01:13:23):
They're not sitting in the dude's lap who's driving. Oh yeah,
I don't let him steer the back of the truck.
Absolutely no, they're sitting in like the set, like the
back part of the cab doing selfies. So women doing
cars anyway, your wife takes selfies in the car. You
guys just know you're driving somewhere. Thank god, that's so weird. Man,

(01:13:45):
I'll see that.

Speaker 4 (01:13:46):
What do you?

Speaker 2 (01:13:47):
What are you doing? What that? You can just tell
them you're coming. You don't have to.

Speaker 1 (01:13:52):
You don't need a picture of you in the act
of like transporting yourself there and you're not even driving.

Speaker 2 (01:13:59):
But anyway.

Speaker 1 (01:14:00):
In addition, the fire department warned the civilians on board
could lead to injuries and possible lawsuits whatever. When I
was in college, some cops showed up to our house party.
We didn't get in trouble because the deal was if
you have the door open, the cops would come walk through,
and if nobody was clearly getting murdered or twelve and

(01:14:23):
nobody and there was not fights or anything, they generally
just walked through to make sure there's not some problem.

Speaker 2 (01:14:28):
Then they'd walk out.

Speaker 1 (01:14:29):
Those guys are always so cool to the campus police.
They're at UC Santa Barbara, and I can't tell you
the number of times some girl found one of the
cops hot and wanted a picture of herself literally in handcuffs,
and they would oblige, and then everyone just had fun
and that was it. And sure they're kind of been
a murder, but if the radio pop, they'd leave. But

(01:14:50):
mostly there's doing crowd control. And most of these guys
are five years outside of the college age anyway, ex
Military and some smoke show wants a picture of her
and a halter top with your cuffs on.

Speaker 2 (01:15:00):
What happened? Why is that any worse than cops shooting
b ball or break.

Speaker 1 (01:15:05):
Dancing with kids those videos we always see, which, by
the way, I have a problem with. I think that's
usually for the better if if police are involved and
get along with people around. So I can't use the
term that they use for the women in this in
this article, but they describe this atmosphere and the term
that they use in Wyoming, we used to call the

(01:15:26):
girls who would hone in on the cowboys buckle bunnies.
They got a different term for the firefighter chasers, which
is fine, everybody's got their own thing. But how's giving
hotties a ride versus giving the kid from make a
Wish to ride?

Speaker 2 (01:15:42):
Any different? Serious question?

Speaker 1 (01:15:48):
If it's not if they're not independently, because they point
out these guys were not not in a position where
they were on call, which I don't know how that
works because I assume if it's bad enough fire and
you're you're a fire truck firefighter, you're kind of like call.
But they were charged with conduct on becoming an officer
and breaching good order and discipline. Oh and bringing the

(01:16:09):
department into disrepute. Oh that's that's so, that is lazy.

Speaker 2 (01:16:14):
I'm at Boston Paul used to pull this crap all
the time.

Speaker 1 (01:16:19):
Yeah yeah, so by look at that. Here's an EMAO
from Boston, Paul. You used to have to give kindergarten
kids rides, but not hotties. I'm with you, Boston Paul
on this.

Speaker 2 (01:16:28):
We agree. Chicks love uniforms. And sirens and scars. Yeah,
that's true. Now this is uh, you know what it is.

Speaker 1 (01:16:37):
There's some woke person up the food chain, within this
particular division who's not a hotty, and this is the
result of it. Guaranteed, if I saw the chain of command,
I probably figured out exactly who's mad about this. And
I'm unapologetic for telling you that eight nineteen hang on
for calling in for our important butt questions. Uh is

(01:17:00):
it was only like two weeks ago that they proposed
Alligator Alcatraz and now they're they're they're they're going down
there because they're getting this thing ready to go already.

Speaker 3 (01:17:10):
Dude, Florida is amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:17:12):
Yeah, and uh and and let me tell you the
moon bats are not dealing well with it. But yeah, no, no,
going back to this, Yeah, it was two weeks ago. Now,
granted it's not a it's not like super high rise buildings.
The thing is essentially a camp, so you know, it's
gonna be a little easier to construct.

Speaker 2 (01:17:28):
They're gonna have some of those metal what do they
what do they call those that they.

Speaker 1 (01:17:32):
Built a bunch during World War two and they had
everywhere it's like a half circle metal It doesn't mean.

Speaker 3 (01:17:37):
They're so fast. I remember last hurricane or the few
hurricanes back where like that bridge came down the big
Born Myers Yeah Myers, right, they rebuilt it in like
two weeks.

Speaker 2 (01:17:45):
Well they had to. It is the only way to
access the island over there. Yeah, because Florida didn't screw
around with the like big union government projects, and they
really you know, I know how news them talked about
fast tracking.

Speaker 1 (01:17:56):
Have you seen some of the pictures of Pacific Palisades.
I don't know that they've started building anything.

Speaker 3 (01:18:01):
They're not going to I'm telling you. I think it
was Adam Carolla was saying that right back when it happened.

Speaker 2 (01:18:06):
But even in Palisades, which is.

Speaker 3 (01:18:09):
Do you have the climate people you have you got
to save the beach people, and they're gonna try to
get them to build somewhere else.

Speaker 2 (01:18:17):
Good luck.

Speaker 1 (01:18:17):
Well Palisades isn't the beach though. That's that, this is
the this is the thing Malibu. I absolutely expected this.
I figet they do the Palisades. So that's something to
point to and go, look, no, we're doing this. But
like they're screwing the they're screwing the whole thing up.

Speaker 3 (01:18:28):
Yeah, and then you have the conspiracy people that are
going to be like, see we told you, you know,
they did it on purpose, so you couldn't build there.
You've already seen that in social media. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah, those lots are crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:18:41):
There's some crazy. It gets elected. This story is horrific.
All right, So this is in Germany. Uh and uh
so here's the story. Nine underage girls sexually abused by
Syrian refugees at swimming pool. But hold on for the
punchline or whatever you want to call it. When they
asked the mayor Christian Liz, I don't know how to

(01:19:03):
pronounce that, don't care, but anyway, so they asked him like,
oh my gosh, this is horrible. So basically at nine
girls you had five suspects, some of the girls ages.

Speaker 2 (01:19:11):
The girls ages ranged from.

Speaker 1 (01:19:13):
Eleven to seventeen and included groping up to actual physical molestation.
What do you think, the German mayor said when asked
about it. Asked to why may he said, throw him
in the wood chipper, he said, of course, it's always
when it's high temperatures, tempers get freyed, what, yeah, remember

(01:19:35):
last week when it was so hot and you just
kept thinking about committing rape.

Speaker 3 (01:19:38):
You remember that. So he's blaming the child rape on
the heat.

Speaker 2 (01:19:42):
Yes, I don't think he means all of it, but
he's just saying it, you know, and it's this hot.
People get this on the brain and then these things happen. Now,
he also said their band from the pool. So phone
call here on Alligator Island and then we'll hear from
some protests or Alligator Alcatraz, excuse me, And then we'll

(01:20:03):
hear for some protesters who are so mad that they
drove to where the mate, where the paved road is,
but didn't actually go to the thing to protest because
that would be inconvenient. Uh, Phil, what's going on? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:20:22):
Can you hear me? Now?

Speaker 2 (01:20:23):
Yeah, I can hear you. What's up?

Speaker 4 (01:20:25):
Okay, that's the building you were talking about, is called
Quonset Hut and the YEP. And they they're treating migrants
just like they shoot American citizens. Because Alligator Alcatraz to
be no different from Paris Islands.

Speaker 1 (01:20:42):
No, that's true. You're out there on an island. It's
I mean, I guess you can escape, but it is
a bit restricted. One road lead in that story where
the submarines got eaten by gators, right, that's right.

Speaker 5 (01:20:57):
There's only one road leading in the Paris Island and
if you're trying to stay off that and.

Speaker 3 (01:21:04):
You're going to get eat Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:21:06):
No, he had a story.

Speaker 1 (01:21:07):
There was a story where they killed a big alligator
near there, and they said it was its stomach was
full of dog tags, and they didn't clarify that they
meant actual dogs. So we had a little fun with
that story, like, holy crap, man, why do those marines
go missing?

Speaker 2 (01:21:21):
So yeah, yeah, no, it's it's it's fine.

Speaker 1 (01:21:24):
And as somebody else pointed out in an email, the plant,
they're not they're not being put there for you know,
eight years to serve out a sentence. It's it's a
holding facility, right, So it's about facilitating because there is
an air strip there, it's about facilitating flights back to
these other countries. So you know, I think I read
that the average length that they expect somebody to be

(01:21:44):
there is like three weeks.

Speaker 4 (01:21:46):
So yeah, all right, for three months, so.

Speaker 2 (01:21:50):
Yeah, exactly, Yeah, yeah, very good point. Thanks very much
for the call. So plus, I don't think ROSSI you
think they're gonna.

Speaker 1 (01:21:59):
Be following the the migrants around screaming at him, calling
him Gomer Pyle, probably not trying to make him jump
over stuff finding jelly donuts in their foot locker.

Speaker 2 (01:22:10):
No, I don't think they'll just suck.

Speaker 3 (01:22:12):
I was reading recently, do you have any idea? Do
you know who was first going to be cast to
play Private Joker? Private Joker?

Speaker 4 (01:22:20):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:22:20):
Yeah, I saw this in the documentary about the director
I read that. I can't remember, going Anthony Michael Hall.

Speaker 2 (01:22:27):
That's right, that's right.

Speaker 1 (01:22:29):
Yeah, they have a really there's a really good documentary
I think on Peacock about Kubrick.

Speaker 3 (01:22:34):
You guys should watch anyway, go ahead. Yeah, they just
couldn't agree upon a salary. He wanted more than Kubrick
would give him or the studio would give him. But
can you imagine that, like the guy from the Breakfast
Club and the little nerdy guy is as Joker.

Speaker 2 (01:22:46):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:22:48):
I thought it's perfect the guy they have because you
don't want him to be macho, because part of the
part of the narrative, like any good movie when people
are actually trying, is you got to have that that
arc don't have to necessarily be a hero's arc. Right,
Sometimes the art goes in a different direction. But the
arc was, here's a guy he doesn't really take anything seriously,
and he's kind of like that throughout the movie. You

(01:23:09):
see that when he's in the in the editorial meeting
and when he's interacting.

Speaker 2 (01:23:13):
With the with the peace symbol on.

Speaker 1 (01:23:15):
But then it hits the fan, right and they're having
to deal with that sniper. And by the way, if
you haven't seen it now, you're like, don't spoil it
for me. There's nothing I could do for you. But
he has to have that arc where now he's got
to go in there and dealing with the sniper. He's watching,
he's watching, you know, his people lose their lives and

(01:23:35):
it's the reality of what was going on over there.

Speaker 2 (01:23:38):
And that whole thing. By the way, that whole thing
is in the English country side. I just want you
guys to know this.

Speaker 3 (01:23:44):
So yeah, that's why the when they're marching you can
see the mile markers and they're like they're British. But also,
Joker was supposed to die at the end of that movie,
and the inter.

Speaker 2 (01:23:53):
Played he had to do. He had to do the thing,
and I'll just leave it at that.

Speaker 3 (01:23:57):
Yeah, the actor that played him said, you know, he
should live, so he has to go on with the
with the pain of all the memories. Right, But that's
that's the journey you're just talking about, Like, that's his arc.

Speaker 2 (01:24:06):
That's it, that's his arc. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:24:08):
Is it a hero arc or is it just the
arc if somebody has put in that position and you know,
and and clearly he he there was a certain amount
of trauma, likely from what happened with Ermi's character. And uh,
you know the The Law and Order dude. But yeah, man,
such a great movie, such a great movie. So yeah,
so to our callers point, yeah, there's that is uh,

(01:24:31):
that is that is fairly accurate, except they won't be
there quite as long. So there's that as well.

Speaker 2 (01:24:39):
All right, let's see here are you gonna hear mom
of the Year?

Speaker 1 (01:24:45):
Give you mom of the year and Arkansas mother has
confessed to giving your children edibles, claiming she was doing
it to discourage them to it from doing pot on
their own.

Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
Okay, this is that old.

Speaker 1 (01:24:58):
This is that whole narrative. Like, it's funny you reference
the breakfast club. They're right, because you have you know,
you talk about his dad give him a pack of
smoke smoke them all of a sudden. But you know,
it's that whole narrative where you know, back in the day,
my dad caught me smoking, so we maybe smoke a
whole pack, so I got six, so I never wanted
him again. I don't know anyone that actually happened to
But there's just one of those wives tales. And by

(01:25:19):
the way, I don't call in and say it happened
to you. I have no way to verify that. But this,
this is insane because you're giving your true you're not
even I don't want to justify any version of this.

Speaker 2 (01:25:30):
I just want to be clear here. But also, you're.

Speaker 1 (01:25:35):
Giving a child something that's going to You're giving him
something that's not just going to get him a little
high or a little drunk. You give an edible and
it's strong. Those kids are not gonna know what's going on.
It's probably gonna terrify them. They were aged six, ten
and fifteen, maybe the fifteen year old, not so much

(01:25:56):
to a six year old, and get a really hot dose.
Because a lot of those edibles, you know, people make
them and then they try to even them out, but
they're not even and you give them to your kids. Specifically,
they were chocolate edibles. I don't know if she made
them on her own or how that works. Also giving
the kids quote vape pen drags. Your lord, she got

(01:26:21):
one hundred and twenty days in jail, sixty days credit,
and sixty months, so five years of supervised probation and
her kid's taken away from her obviously.

Speaker 2 (01:26:33):
Now I don't know if they have the father here.
Where'd the kids go? That's what's so sad here. Yeah,
it doesn't say were the kids. I hope there's some
other responsible relatives out around here for them, just to
get into the system.

Speaker 1 (01:26:52):
She also confessed to giving marijuana too, or smoking and
around her those three kids, and I guess she has
a fourth kid, but in this case she didn't give
them an edible, but did admit to giving at least
twelve different.

Speaker 2 (01:27:04):
Doses over the past year to or four kids, but
said it was all in an attempt to deter her
children from using the drug.

Speaker 4 (01:27:14):
That's just.

Speaker 1 (01:27:17):
Oh, then, and then she's got to do parenting classes
and rehabilitation. Then maybe, just maybe she can apply to
get her kids. Okay, thank god, here we go, all right,
So they are going to go live with some relatives.
I hope, yeah, I mean, hopefully that's a better Clearly
it's probably gonna be a better situation than living with mom.
But you know, just going into the system and.

Speaker 2 (01:27:40):
Check this out. It tis the season.

Speaker 1 (01:27:45):
TSA authorities say that it is that time of the
year when passengers may find themselves getting pulled aside when
they go through the put your hands up in the
air machine, whatever the hell that thing is that body's
you get to sit in there and make a triangle
of your of your head.

Speaker 2 (01:28:04):
They say that there is a huge increase in uh
A swamp butt.

Speaker 1 (01:28:11):
Giving false positives, and they're trying to figure the problem out.

Speaker 2 (01:28:15):
Apparently, if you have that happen.

Speaker 1 (01:28:20):
It may indicate that there's something going on there, and
then that's how they have an increased number of that
going on.

Speaker 3 (01:28:27):
I have a question, how how how is? How is?

Speaker 1 (01:28:33):
How does somebody having a moist? And by the way
you do it to us? If I could just go
on a slight tangent here for the moment, because like
everything about the airport is meant to be hurry hurry, hurry, slow,
slow slow stress stress, don't stress. And it's not to
say there's not good people working at the at the

(01:28:54):
air Let's why I went through the airport. I very
good gate agent TSA people were cool and uh, you
got to check my ID.

Speaker 2 (01:29:04):
Was good and then with the actual skinner.

Speaker 1 (01:29:06):
But I've been in airports, some airports, like when I
went last time I went through DC. You know, if
you fly, you learn to recognize the big bins and
the little bins.

Speaker 2 (01:29:15):
Right, which require a holy separate process.

Speaker 1 (01:29:19):
So if the big bins are there, everything has to
go into a bin, but everything stays in your bags, okay,
which I prefer that.

Speaker 2 (01:29:27):
And then for in the little one. Uh, then the
little one.

Speaker 1 (01:29:31):
Then electronics have to come out, and God forbid put
the shoes in with the jacket over there, and they
will scream at you.

Speaker 2 (01:29:38):
And I hate that.

Speaker 1 (01:29:39):
By the way, if you're a TSA person, I understand
you get frustrated. But if you're screaming, just allowed over
and over over repetitively. And then somebody asked you a
question and it's and you think they either didn't hear you,
they probably just got in line, or they were talking
to the other agent, and then you're rude to them.

Speaker 2 (01:29:55):
I got no time for you.

Speaker 3 (01:29:56):
You're right about the airport. The most terrifying, terrified I've
ever been was that the alle in a lake airport,
like yeah, before I even got in, like crossing the road,
like the officers screaming at me.

Speaker 1 (01:30:05):
I was like everyone is, and I look, I understand
you got you're dealing with idiots, right because I I
I try to scan and not get in an idiot line.
But like a lot of people don't travel very much,
and so the big bin versus little bin, they don't.

Speaker 3 (01:30:19):
Know that rain. You might have a question and just
be curious or you need to know something, they scream
at you.

Speaker 4 (01:30:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:30:24):
So so the reason people are sweating by the time
they get through the actual scanner. A lot of times
is you okay? A lot of times it's you or
just the process right where you go over there. I
had I got my seat given away on a recent
flight and the door was it was the door wasn't
closed for ten more minutes. This solved a problem for

(01:30:44):
the chick, and she was rude to me and so
rude so and I never got rude with her. I
don't be very clear because you're not gonna win that.
You're not gonna win that none of that. I just said, look,
this is wrong what you did. And she's like, well,
we can read book you, but we're gonna you don't
have to be for this time. And I said, well,
then you need to do something. She wouldn't do anything,

(01:31:06):
and then she tried to tell me to go, that
I have to go and talk to the agent outside
of security, and I'm like, that's not happening. You're not
tricking me into going out there. And eventually some guy
came over and got me on the flight, a different flight.
And I still I haven't decided how I'm gonna deal
with that with the airline because it was a full
fair ticket. It was a full fair business class ticket.
I have to be honest with you, but I like

(01:31:26):
to sit up there.

Speaker 2 (01:31:27):
I like sit up there. I'm a bigger dude.

Speaker 1 (01:31:29):
And I was the rudest anyone's ever been to me.
And the trick is to not lose your cool because
that's what they want. And the problem was they clearly
oversold the flight. I had a short connection. She gave
my ticket away. Everybody knows what happened. Everybody knows what's up.
I hadn't even got into this on the air because
I just don't want to get in on the air,
but yeah, this just you stress people out. Then they
start sweating, and now it's telling people to be more

(01:31:51):
conscientious when they come through. They trust me, nobody wants
to be sweating bullets at the TSA line. All right, Sorry,
raced agic real quick, I apologize.

Speaker 3 (01:31:59):
I was a joy myself.

Speaker 2 (01:32:00):
Yeah, I like that. I had the event anyway, quick, quick, weather,
what do you got?

Speaker 6 (01:32:04):
Yeah, okay, seeing a little cloud even around the Tryad
in west there's a little area of fogs, still of
cloud sun and then afternoon storms probably later three four
o'clock and beyond they come in from the west with
this front. Near ninety heated decks still will be close
to one hundred, so humid day, likely showers and thunderstorms
early tonight, Dan, some of these storms could be severe
this afternoon and tonight and tomorrow we'll have more scattered

(01:32:27):
showers and thunder Temperatures may come down a bit low
to mid to eighties, and after that we go on
a good run Thursday Friday, close to ninety degrees on
either side of that sunshine that does include the fourth
that should beautiful after we get through these next two days. Today,
I think the better chance later of the severe storms
with still some wet weather lingering into tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (01:32:45):
Okay, thank you, sir, appreciate it. Come back with Jeff
Bellinger next.

Speaker 7 (01:32:48):

five percent. The Durham based chip maker filed for Chapter
eleven bankruptcy. Did so in order to enact a creditor
backed plan to slash its debt. Wolf Speed expects to

declined in records that go back to twenty twelve. Redfinn
reports the median condo price in May was down two
point two percent from May of last year, the only
time prices posted. A bigger decline was in April of
twenty twenty three. That drop was two point nine percent.
Redfinn says condo prices are falling now because there are

(01:33:54):
so many more condo sellers than buyers in the market.
A lot of owners want to unload their unit. It's
because insurance and HOA costs have jumped. Apple still struggling
to develop its own artificial intelligence technology now. It is
