Speaker 1 (00:11):
The Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
This killing of a CEO is not just about insurance.
This is class warfare. A younger generation is pissed off
and angry, raging, looking at mom and dad and grandma
and grandpa who seem to have it all and have

(00:35):
given much of that to them, And now they're looking
and thinking, can't afford a house. Life's two damn expensive
for me. I'm coming out of college, which I was
told I had to go to one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars upside down. If I get a job, I'm
starting at the bottom. It's taking forever. I'm having to

(00:55):
live with six roommates. Even though I've got a great job.
My life feels like it's crap. And all the while
they've been going to school and being told that capitalism
is evil, capitalism is bad, and all the while, those
same people that are saying that are collecting great paychecks
have a comfortable life, and then they kick you into
a world that kicks you right in the grundle the
minute you stepped out, and you feel ill prepared. Luigi,

(01:17):
you wanted to start a conversation, he did about insurance.
But it's more than just that. People especially a younger
generation who are celebrating him, are pissed and angry because.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
There's a long simmering rage right now amongst Americans, and
I think a lot of them see this as sort
of a representation of their rage exploding in the most
inappropriate fashion, because what will this actually get us, other
than in the immediate term, probably just more security for
more CEOs around the country. I think that if you
want to institute actual change, all of those people who

(01:51):
are going on TikTok right now and celebrating him and
talking about his looks and all of that, they should
be going and doing sit ins on Capitol Hill.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
They should be going into state policy. I mean, I
just don't know that there's anything to your point. People
are almost statistically celebrating the murder of this guy, and
I'm not sure that it's connected to any real action.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
No, no, because they don't know what to do. It
moves too slowly for them. All the things they love
came because of capitalism, but they feel that capitalism isn't
going to benefit them at all, and so they look
and they've now deemed the CEO as all that is evil,
especially if you're white. Oh if you're white. It's a

(02:35):
double evil. There are wanted posters like it is the
Old West. There are wanted posters around New York and
several other places from Wall Street down, like it is
the Old West, Like We're coming after.

Speaker 5 (02:48):
You, CEO.

Speaker 6 (02:49):
Wanted posters have been seen around the city as fears
grow that copycats could target other corporate executives.

Speaker 7 (02:56):
Right well, Jim, there is a real sense of nervousness
and even fear in C suites really across the country.

Speaker 8 (03:04):
This fatal shooting.

Speaker 7 (03:06):
In Midtown Manhattan, it's been a real wake up call
for business leaders and for boards of directors. The security
firms that are paid top dollars to protect executives, they
say that their phones have been ringing off the hook.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
I bet you think about this. There is they're looking,
people are looking. You're you're twenty five, and you've got debt,
you're back living at home with mom and dad. You're
on the internet half today. You've got a job that
you feel as soulless. You were told to do all
of these things, and you've done all of these things,
and you've come out and you're like, oh my god,

(03:40):
I'm back at home. Now what And if you did
move out, you probably got one, two, three roommates. You're
robing Peter to pay Paul. You feel like you've been
sold a bill of goods by the old folk. And
you're looking up and you're seeing these guys and gals
who've got all this money, and you're angry and pissed
they got the American dream. You feel like that American
dream is slipped away. And I'm not talking about the

(04:03):
twenty six year old who's married with a kid who
skipped college, went out and got a job and is ting.
I'm talking about a lot of these A vast majority
of these people you see online who are supporting this guy,
college educated chances are middle to upper middle class or

(04:24):
even more, and bitter and angry because the things that
they've seen their entire life, those things are unachievable until
mom and dad die, which is when they're going to
realize that we're going to have the greatest transfer of
wealth and history. And they're like, well, mom and dad
bought a house for you know, three tomatoes and a
life saver, and if I want a more, it's just

(04:47):
going to be twelve thousand dollars a month to go
along with my three thousand dollars a month for my
college tuition that I'll be paying for the rest of
my life and into eternity. I'm pissed and angry.

Speaker 7 (04:57):
Ever since this news broke, one veteran security executive told
me that corporate America is nervous, and he said healthcare
is to target now, but who's next? And so yes,
companies are considering a range of steps to try to
ramp up security. They're increasing the number of security personnel

(05:17):
and the amount of technology in offices and even in
the residences of executives.

Speaker 8 (05:23):
They're urging executives to delete their digital.

Speaker 7 (05:25):
Footprints, including stuff like the floor plans of their homes
and any information that's out there about where their kids
may go to school.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
That is scary if you are a father or mother
and you're in the C suite and you're now having
to think about what you're going to do with your
kids and how to protect them. This isn't like you
ever watched that movie Man on Fire with Denzel Washington.
If you go to some of these countries, Mexico being

(05:54):
one of them, kidnapping is it's a business, but there
are professionals that do it out South America, Columbia, Argentina, Brazil.
It's a business and they're not really interested in killing you,
but they want money, and usually it's for some left
wing faction. It's a business. Is that movie Proof of

(06:17):
Life with Russell Crowe remember that it's a business. And
so in these countries they have bodyguards. Here, some leaders
have some bodyguards. That's gonna change big time because now
they all have targets. They are public enemy number one
and people are pissed and angry for a lot of reasons.

(06:39):
I'm watching a great show I highly recommend. It's called Landman,
and I think we're on the fifth episode last night.
John Ham is in it. Billy Bob Thornton is the Landman.
He is amazing, got Demi Moore, you have just a
ton of stars, Alley Lodters in it. It is fantastic.
But it's about the world of oil and gas and

(07:02):
Billy Bob plays the landman guy who basically secures all
the rights. He runs everything on the ground and he
secures all the rights for the mineral leases and he's
got to deal with everybody from a pissed off, angry
cattle rancher, who's you know upset that he's not getting
enough in his mind for the stuff underneath the ground

(07:25):
to the cartels. And John hann plays the guy. He's
like as far as the money man, he is the
this is his company. And in the last episode there
was a thing where they all get together, all the
oil company execs, and they're sitting inside of a room having lunch,
discussing the future of oil and gas and green energy

(07:48):
and all of this stuff. And John Hamm delivered an
amazing speech and we waited to check it out because
what he says at the end is what I think
a lot of people who are younger look at my
generation a little bit older, and how they think, because
remember it's not just about the CEO of United and Insurance.

(08:12):
They think you're destroying the world with climate change and
all the fossil fuels. How dam you. They think you're
doing this over here to destroy whatever it is that
that is the cause to sure of the day, those things,
it all adds up, and I thought this was just brilliant,
and I was watching the last night, I'm like, that
is the truth, because it doesn't matter what you do now.

Speaker 9 (08:34):
Yell have been in so many shareholder meetings. You forgot
what it is we actually do for a living. We
are well diggers. We don't nor can we ever, control
how our product.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Is used or what it is used for.

Speaker 9 (08:46):
There's nothing new to make an engine run cleaner because
I don't build vengins. I don't care what the governor
of California says about electric vehicles. I don't care how
many career college students block London traffic or.

Speaker 2 (08:58):
Spray paint of sculpture.

Speaker 10 (08:59):
I care that the price of oil stays between seventy
six and eighty eight dollars a barrel.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
That is what we should be discussing.

Speaker 10 (09:06):
The world has already convinced itself that you are evil,
and I am evil for providing them the one thing
they interact with every day, and they will not be
convinced otherwise. Stop wasting your time, Stop wasting mind.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
I love it. These people, young generation of angry, pissed
off people and activists. They don't care. They don't care
that you're a CEO of this company or that company.
You are deemed evil and the problem. It's not about healthcare,
It's about capitalism. That's what this is about. The same

(09:42):
people that would throw you know, crap on a MoMA
lease if they got a chance to scream and yell
about fossil fuels. Are the same people celebrating this guy,
and they may have different outlooks on things, but the
thing that they have in common, it's capitalism and they

(10:02):
hate it.

Speaker 7 (10:03):
There's also a sense that this killing really made it
clear that companies need to extend the security blanket that
exists for those top level CEOs down to their lieutenants,
because there are a lot of massive corporations out there,
like United Healthcare, that maybe the security for those division
CEOs does not rise to the level that it does

(10:25):
for the number one CEO, but perhaps it really should.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
We're going to find out is there a copycat out there?
But when somebody said this is about healthcare, that conversation
has been started. But he was anti capitalistic, and all
these people I see celebrating outside of the ladies who
just think he's dreamy, when you watch them, it's rage
and anger at the one percent, at the white man, colonialism,

(10:55):
fossil fuels, et cetera, et cetera. Three two, three, five,

Speaker 11 (12:57):
It's a Chad Benson show.

Speaker 12 (13:10):
Chad Benson, there's no doubt that the president is going
to enter office with a little bit of a honeymoon.

Speaker 8 (13:17):
Take a look here.

Speaker 12 (13:18):
Donald Trump has a fifty five.

Speaker 8 (13:20):
Percent approval rating.

Speaker 12 (13:21):
That's not normally a support level we see for him
as it relates to his handling of the transition. Right
now forty five percent disapprove.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Wait, that can't be right, you guys, hold on, is
it broken? Nope, it says it's fitfthy. I'm gonna hit
it again. Man numbers right, fifty five percent approval rating?
What how can that be?

Speaker 12 (13:40):
Compare this to eight years ago when Donald Trump first
won the presidency in November sixteen. At this point, he
was at forty six percent approval of his handling of
the transition.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
So Trump is coming in with a head of steam.
Why is that. Let's be real for a second for
those of you who hate Trump, since he's been real,
handled himself much more presidential, Like, let's be honest there
for a second. I know it's hard for some of
you out there because I like, oh God. Secondly, people
looking over at Ukraine, looking over at what's going on there,

(14:13):
and they feel like there's some movement. They feel kind
of like, Okay, maybe this guy was right about Ukraine.
Maybe the end is going to be coming much faster.
When everybody said that, oh, there's no way he could
end this thing. He might try to get this thing
done before he even gets into office. Wow, what a
coup that would be. Secondly, they look at the chaos
going on around the world, and most importantly for us

(14:37):
here at home, all of the politicians who called him
a Nazi, a dictator, all of the things have been
seen taking pictures with him, shaking hands, breaking bread, if
you will, and they're thinking to themselves, Yeah, you know what,
you guys have lied to us a whole bunch, So

(15:00):
maybe we're going to give him a little bit more
of a buffer than we did last time. And I
think the fact that nobody's paying attention to the media,
they're not the best thing that happened to the media
in the last several weeks has been the CEO shooter,

(15:21):
because he is taking everybody's eyes off Trump and everything
three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four twenty three.
At Chad Benson Shows, your Twitter, your Instagram, you're an
Instagram and Facebook and everything were down last night. I
think everything's working out. But you can also go and
get Chad Benson Show seven on TikTok while at Last

(15:42):
and Chad Benson Show TV like and subscribe. We appreciate
when you do that right here on The Chad Benson Show.
But also off their missteps and that the way that
they've handled all of this stuff when it came to
Trump that has been they're really I think they're saving

(16:04):
grace over the last ten days. Speaking of Trump, the
transition is happening, not that transition, getting his team ready
and Cash Bettel yesterday is going to be taking over
for Christopher Ray who stepped down was of course in
you know, is that the capital is going talking to
all the senators and whatnot, and of course the media

(16:25):
wants to know, are you going to come after all
the Trump's and bonets transition? And I'll be ready to
go on Are.

Speaker 13 (16:31):
You gonna be seeking retrobation against Donald Trump's political assonans?

Speaker 8 (16:34):
Sir? Sorry, which your reaction the right definition.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
We look forward to a very smooth transition at the
FBI and I'll be ready to go on day one.
Why are you asking? Are you coming after people? Are
you going to be arresting people? Is it going to
be happening? Tell us now we want to know who's
it going to be. That is the dumbest thing in
the world.

Speaker 14 (16:51):
It is, it is, but it's great for the met
And this is why you want to know why Trump's
approval ratings up and he hadn't even done anything, is
because stuff like that, that because they're more interested in
the the is he coming for the retribution?

Speaker 2 (17:06):
Is he because that they think is going to sell.
It may work for their audience, but your audience is
dwindly and you don't have any credibility, and people are like, well,
how could they get credibility? Where You're gonna have to
move all these people out because nobody buys what they're saying.
And if they now start to go in a different path,
people are gonna think they're hypocrites. Three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three At Chad Benson Show, it's

(17:26):
your Twitter, your Instagram. A lot of stuff coming up,
including Christmas movie countdown. We're doing it by Genres today.
It's horror. Ooh interesting, I know, right, so Chad Benson.

Speaker 15 (17:37):
Show, Son, Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
The Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 16 (18:03):
I'll just in a building and a person in a chair,
and you paid for it, although you may be unaware.
You paid for the paper, you paid for the phone,
you pick for everything.

Speaker 8 (18:12):
They need to deny you what you're old.

Speaker 17 (18:14):
There ain't no you and United Health, there ain't no
meat in the company. They ain't not us in the
private trust there's hardly humans and human and he way
back in seventy and seven, mister Richard T. Burke started
buying each of most putting federal grants to work, being
fifty billion.

Speaker 16 (18:33):
Buccaroos last year. The warm buffet of health, the Jeff
Bezos a feater, the CEOs come.

Speaker 17 (18:39):
And go and want just went to the agreedent.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
You got, bake the cake you get.

Speaker 16 (18:44):
But if you get sick, cut your fingers for luck,
because old Richard T.

Speaker 1 (18:48):
Burke ain't giving.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
Him number one. Well the bullet, Oh wait, that's wrong.
That's the United Healthcare folks song there about how much
the guy who heads it up, the founder, is horrible individual. Indeed,
we're get more into it next hour. When it comes
to the business of healthcare. And I think that's important

(19:17):
because it is a business. They run it as such.
It is not human beings. It is not patience, It
is not relationships between the healthcare provider i e. Your doctor,
your nurse, practitioner, whatever it is. And you it is
a business and you are X amount of dollars and

(19:40):
your X amount of risk. Let's talk about that next hour.
But first, you know, I don't know what to say
about San Diego in the Insanity so Board meeting the
other night. Because I don't know if you guys are
aware of this. There's a new guy in town, the
new share when it comes to not San Diego, the

(20:03):
country and when it comes to immigration. His name's Donald Trump,
forty seventh president soon to be of the United States
of America, was the forty fifth and is not a
fan of immigration being illegally done. Who should be the numbers?
By the way New York Times put him in there,
like all right, we'll be honest, the worst ever under Biden,

(20:25):
not even close. It's not even close on average that
we know of. These are the that we know of
to and a half millionaire that is insane. So what
are they gonna do? Well, San Diego decided they're gonna
be the front line of sanctuary cities. San Diego decide

(20:48):
that because you see, they're insane. And we're not talking
about again. This whole thing with mass deporting and self
deportation is up, and we'll talk about that in a
little bit. But this thought process of it's everybody that

(21:10):
needs to be protected, What about the ones in jail? Nope,
they absolutely need to be protected. Are you kidding me.
So there was one loan vote in the Board of
Supervisors the other night. There's three to one to make

(21:30):
sure that they do everything they possibly can to not
assist ICE in taking people that are already in custody
for crimes and deporting them.

Speaker 18 (21:42):
This policy bull goes beyond California's existing sanctuary laws by
adding an additional layer of bureaucracy that hinders local law
enforcement from directly notifying ICE about illegal immigrants who are
currently in our jails and they have admitted heinous crimes
including child abuse or endangerment, possession of an unlawful deadly weapon,

(22:06):
gang related offenses, a crime resulting in death or involving
personal affliction or great bodily injury, possession or use of
a firearm, and the commission of an offense torture, rape,
and kidnapping.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
That is Jim Desmond. He was the lone voice of
sanity at the board the other night saying, look, are
we really doing this? So you're gonna add another layer
in essentially prohibiting ICE and local law enforcement working together
with somebody who's in custody who has committed a crime

(22:44):
and or is being held for committing an alleged crime
or may have already been through the system and have
self I mean have deportation orders. You're gonna put that
layer there. Remember, we're not talking about the person walking
down the street, which is what they always want to
make it out about. This is everybody, including the people

(23:09):
that have committed crimes.

Speaker 18 (23:11):
So under this policy, and if a legal immigrant commits
one of these serious crimes, San Diego County would be
legally prohibited from directly coordinating with ICE. This effectively protects
the offenders from deportation, allowing them to remain in our
communities where they could cause that same harm.

Speaker 5 (23:30):
Again, we have seen.

Speaker 18 (23:31):
The devastating consequences of such policies across the nation, and
these tragedies are preventable, but sanctuary laws allow them to
happen by allowing illegal criminals back into our communities instead
of into the hands of ICE.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
It is insane and it goes back to what I've
been saying. You've got to find a way to hold
these cities accountable, taking away any immunity that they would
have free of civil liability and maybe prosecution criminally. If

(24:08):
you are to hide somebody who is a known criminal,
so you could you know, go out and virtue signal
and in doing so, that person goes out and commits
another crime that causes damage and or death and harm
to somebody else. You should be able to come after

(24:32):
them civilly because you have the opportunity to deport them.
You have the opportunity to surrender them to ICE. And
by the way, ICE is not some this is not
the Gestapo, this is not some foreign adversaries. We're handing
them over to that are going to take them out
and execute them. They are then going to deport them

(24:54):
back from whence they came. But no, they won't do that.

Speaker 18 (24:59):
Sandyo County is already spending five million dollars annually of
taxpayer money to provide legal counsel for illegal immigrants facing deportation,
no matter what the reason is that they're being deported.
This proposed legislation to me, seeks to prioritize the interest
of illegal criminal immigrants over the safety of law abiding

(25:21):
immigrants and citizens.

Speaker 5 (25:23):
I don't think we can continue down this.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
Path, but you're going to same Jim Desmond there, he's
the loan voice of reason on the board in San Diego,
saying there's how could you do this. How could you say, now,
we're going to protect people that have committed crimes in
this country. You are currently sitting in jails, and your
number one thing that you want to do is make

(25:46):
sure that the federal government, again, not the Gestapo, not
some foreign adversaries, the federal government can't take them. You're
going to do all you can to hide them. You're
gonna do all you can to protect them over the
citizens and residents legally in San Diego and quite frankly,
this is pretty much California across the board, is what

(26:06):
they're doing. This is it to stand up to the
evil that is Donald Trump.

Speaker 18 (26:12):
We cannot let San Diego count become the next headline
for an avoidable tragedy. These policies and are just flawed,
but they're reckless and they endanger every member of our community.
Let's prioritize safety over politics, justice over ideology, and protection
of innocent lives above all else.

Speaker 5 (26:30):
I will not be supporting the good for.

Speaker 2 (26:32):
You just truly absurd. But they want to do what
I want to virtue signal.

Speaker 19 (26:44):
And they come up with, well, the immigrated community is
such an important part of the community.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
Blah blah blah, blah blah blah. We're not talking about them.
We're talking about people that are gang members. We're talking
about people that have committed hand his grinds. We're talking
about people that are a danger and threat to our community.
That's what we're talking We're not talking about the personnel
of the street who mows your lun or cleans your house
or works in construction. We're talking about people that are dangerous.
We're talking about people that are already in a position

(27:08):
of being apprehended because they've been apprehended for other crimes,
or they've got notice that they must be removed from
the country because of their failure to get asylum. But
they still stayed here and committed crimes, and you're still
willing to go out and say sorry, we thumb our
nose at you. That is just so reckless, so irresponsible,

(27:33):
and so California right there. Three two, three, five, three, eight,

So after we count down our top five Christmas songs,
I said, well, last year we did Christmas movies, but

(29:35):
let's do something a little bit different with Christmas movies
this year. So this year we're counting down the best
Christmas movies by genre, and today we're going to start
with the horror genre, because quite frankly, I don't think
people realize the horror genre and Christmas go together, much
like horror and Halloween. Do spent a ton of great
horror movies throughout the years, and I don't want to

(29:56):
hear it. If you think Graham Lint was it wasn't.

Speaker 10 (29:59):
Really.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
It's a kind of a puppet movie. I don't really
call that a horror movie. But there's been a lot
of great ones. Got some slasher films out there. Black
Christmas was amazing. They've done that a couple of times,
been incredible, great slasher movie. There's a bunch of really
good scary horror movies out there. So today I'm going

(30:21):
to give you the best, in my opinion, horror movie
that you can go out there and watch. It's entertaining,
little family involved, some humor, and some scares. Are you ready?

Speaker 21 (30:34):
Very Christmas? It's time for the Great Christmas countdown, the
five greatest Christmas movies of all time?

Speaker 5 (30:47):
Merry Christmas.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
I felt the animal.

Speaker 22 (30:49):
Surprised Eddie if I woke up tomorrow with my headphone
at the car, But I wouldn't be more surprised than
I am.

Speaker 2 (30:54):
Right now, I want to Russ.

Speaker 23 (30:59):
You should your eye out, kid? What does you want?

Speaker 24 (31:01):
Barry?

Speaker 2 (31:02):
What do you want?

Speaker 5 (31:03):
You want the moon?

Speaker 16 (31:04):
Just say the word and I'll throw a glasshole around
it and pullug down.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
All right, let's talk Christmas horror movies now. Like I said,
there's been a lot of really really good ones. This
one came out in twenty fifteen. Michael Doherty directed. He
directed the Trick or Treat movies. It's're amazing he directed
King Kong and Godzilla and the last several of those.
He's done some big things. But he absolutely loves this
movie and it is interesting. It's based on folklore, folklore, yes, yes, yes,

(31:34):
going back quite away. So the movie is called Crampus,
and it's set like in the East Coast, you know,
maybe Upper New York, kind of a Buffalo Area's families
all getting together. Adam Scott, great actor, Tony Kleett, great actress,
just a great ensemble cast. And Tony Colllett and Adam
Scott are kind of the yuppies, right, and her sister

(31:58):
and brother in law come out and they're very much
like you know, meat and potatoes and they it just
it's a clash from the start. And Adam Scott's mother
lives there and she is She's German, let's just say that.
And it is awesome, it is creepy, it is all

(32:21):
of the things. Oh boy, crampis your best Christmas scary movie.

Speaker 8 (32:31):
It's the most wonderful time.

Speaker 24 (32:38):
It's the hot Christmas, Christmas Christmas.

Speaker 21 (32:46):
With those holidays.

Speaker 25 (32:57):
See, Nicholas is not coming this instead a much darker
ancient spirit. He and his helpers did not come to
give but to take he is the shadow of Saint Nicholas.

Speaker 26 (33:24):
Nothing bad's gonna happen on Christmas.

Speaker 2 (33:29):
So good. And part of the reason it's so great is,
first of all, the atmosphere, because it starts out where
you know, they're trying to have like a Christmas dinner,
and it just goes sideways, and the fighting and what
starts out as a beautiful day of the snow out
there turns to fog and power outages, and the fog
snow is you can't see a foot. It's like a blizzard,

(33:50):
but it's only in this neighborhood and it is so
weird and it's so eerie, but it's awesome. And when
Grandma Omi tells the story there it is they do
this animation in the middle of it and it is incredible.
And then he shows up. Then Crampis doesn't come alone.
So who's Crampis? Crampis actually is. Think of him as

(34:13):
Saint Nicholas's or Santa Claus brother cousin. And the bad
little boys and girls, the ones who can plain, they
don't get cold, they get the crumpus. And in the
movie Max, the kind of the star of the movie,
the kid, he's mad at everybody, and he tears up
his Santa Claus letter and throws it out and it

(34:33):
gets into the wind and away it goes, and then
it's all hell breaks loose. You would think this is
a bad guy and this is an evil creature or
whatever it is. Here's the thing about Crampis. Crampis and
actually Santa Claus are like best friends. And you don't
really want to know what Crampis does to kids back
in the folklore days in Austria and Germany where they
still the stories, because let's just say, he carries a
basket to take the kids away. Sometimes the hell, sometimes

(34:55):
the ground a little creepy, I know, a lot of fun,
though very creepy, a lot of heartwarming moments, even though
the family seem to not get along. It is. It
is fun and it is creepy, and it is all
of the things. Crampis your number one Christmas horror movie.
We're gonna be talking about this next hour.

Speaker 27 (35:16):
The number of them, the fact that they are so large,
the fact that fifty of them came in off the
ocean in Ocean County, which is where I was, and
I talked, you know, to several people who saw them
coming in in droves.

Speaker 2 (35:30):
That right there, New Jersey Congressman Chris Smith three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chadminton Show,
your Twitter, your Instagram, all of the other things. He's
asking serious questions about what the hell is going on
on the coast because these drones are big as cars.
They are coming fast, and they disappear anytime light comes

(35:53):
on them. And it went from oh, maybe somebody's doing
something too. If it's not aliens, it's probably an acari
and if that is true, that is also alarming. We're
gonna talk about that a bunch of other things. You
could reach out to us across all of our social
media at Chad Benson Show, your Twitter, your Instagram, Chat,
Benson Show TV on YouTube, and so much more. If

(36:13):
you're mistening to the show, also grab the podcast. We
appreciate that it is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
This is the Chad Benson Show, the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
And you get a pardon, and you get a pardon,
and you get a pardon breaking records. Biden's like, screw it.
He's old, he's out, he's angry, yet he's full of giving.

Speaker 28 (37:09):
President Biden announced today he's issuing pardons for thirty nine
people who he says were convicted of nonviolent crimes and
have quote shown successful rehabilitation. The president also commuted the
sentences of fifteen hundred people serving long prison sentences, many
of whom he says would receive lower sentences if charged
under today's laws, policies, and practices. These commutation recipients have

(37:30):
been serving at home for at least one year under
COVID era legislation. The White House signal the President would
take further action like this in the coming weeks to
provide quote meaningful second chances.

Speaker 2 (37:40):
Meaningful second chances. By the way, a record fifteen hundred
pardons is a record that you're just handing them out left,
right and center. Thirty nine convicted of nonviolent crimes. Okay,
what about what's going on with the other ones? Just
curious about that. And I'm sure as they go through
them all over the next you know, twenty four hours,

(38:00):
will find out that's interesting, how many of them are donors.
But should they be giving out pardons left right and center?
Because you know Trump's coming, and.

Speaker 29 (38:09):
When he does, he's got a list of people he's
coming for.

Speaker 30 (38:13):
Mister President Donald Trump will be returning to the White
House unburdened by the pressure of reelection, with sweeping immunity
granted to him, I believe, by the Supreme Court and
an alleged enemies list. Do you think it would be
wise of President Biden to preemptively pardon any potential targets.

(38:35):
What about your wife, Hillary Clinton? She apparently is on
Cash Betel's list.

Speaker 31 (38:39):
Well, they got a problem with her because first she
didn't do anything wrong.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
First, she didn't do anything wrong. I'll tell you that
right now. She didn't.

Speaker 19 (38:49):
She never did anything wrong. It's all Trump's fought. In fact,
Trump's people are probably way worse. They're done all kinds
of horrible things as well. Let's talk about that.

Speaker 8 (38:57):
She followed the rules exactly as they were written.

Speaker 21 (39:00):
Trump's State Department.

Speaker 31 (39:01):
Trump's State Department found they remember other emails was such
a big issue. In twenty sixteen, Trump's State Department found
that Hillary sent and received exactly zero classified emails on
her purful device.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
It was a hole.

Speaker 31 (39:17):
That was a made up phoney story. I guess if
Cash would tell is determined to make one up, he
could do it.

Speaker 2 (39:23):
By the way it wasn't about the emails from the device.
It was about where the emails were being stored. So different, okay,
And why'd you destroy him? Why'd you keep mem in
the room in the bathroom in Colorado wherever? Just out
of curiosity?

Speaker 19 (39:41):
Again again, just did remember Komy wasn't going to make
it very political or anything, But did you come out
right before to exonerat her? But then also said that
she did break the law. So that's weird too. Continue.

Speaker 31 (39:55):
If President Biden wanted to talk to me about that,
I would talk to him about it. But I don't
think I should be giving public advice from the pardon power.
I think it's too It's a very personal thing, but
it is. I hope he won't do that.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
Just insane. And then the fawning of him there on
the view what happens if Trump doesn't do any of
these things? Cash Bettel doesn't do any of these things,
What if he does? Are they warranted? I And this

(40:32):
is where I think people are missing out. I think
when they talk about going after the corruption and you
look inside these agencies and you find it's not so
much about the politician, is it about the bureaucrats inside
of there, the nameless, faceless with no accountability, doing what

(40:55):
they want. That's the issue that I think is where
they really want to get at stuff. I could be wrong,
but if it's being directed by certain people, then yeah
we should know. You know. Cashiell said, Look, we're gonna
have the most transparent FBI in history. I would like that.

(41:16):
And let's not forget the history of the FBI isn't
above reproach. There has been smith use yet people just
are like, yeah, I totally think it's fine. I totally
think they're good. They're great, which is a bunch of
crap and you know it and I know it.

Speaker 23 (41:35):
Meanwhile, in New York City, investigators say they have their
first forensic match from fingerprints on a water bottle and
snackbar wrapper near the crime scene to the ghost gun
police say was used to murder United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Detectives also now have what they consider to be a confession,
a spiral notebook that sources say contains plans for how

(41:56):
to kill Thompson.

Speaker 8 (41:57):
What do you do?

Speaker 23 (41:58):
One passage allegedly read, you whack the CEO at the
Annual Parasitic Bean counter Convention. It's targeted, precise and doesn't
risk innocence.

Speaker 2 (42:08):
It's interesting, I know what's called that, the parasitic bean
counter convention CEOs getting together and well talking about how
they can streamline their business, make more money, what's changing
in the industry, make more money. On the other side

(42:29):
of it, he's in jail, which I found out yesterday.
It's second degree is what he's charged with. So second
degree in New York carries twenty five to life, which
means if he serves fifteen years, he could potentially get out.
Not first degree, which there could it change. It's possible,

(42:50):
probably not. First degree is reserved for you kill an officer,
you kill a government official. It is a contract hit
job and or terrorism, and I think, well, this could
kind of maybe count for that, couldn't it. So there's
a chance he's going to get out.

Speaker 23 (43:09):
The NYPD is alarmed. The alleged killer is seen by
some as a martyr, inspiring wanted posters outside the New
York Stock Exchange with the names of other corporate executives.
A new law enforcement bulletin obtained by ABC News. Warren's
many social media users have outright advocated for the continued
killings of CEOs, with some aiming to spread fear by

(43:29):
posting hit lists.

Speaker 2 (43:31):
And we talked about that last hour. Remember while this
for him was about Brian Thompson and for whatever reason,
I didn't even know if he was covered by United,
and it was about the insurance industry. He's anti capitalists
and all of these people that are out there, they're
not advocating going after just the insurance companies. They're talking

(43:53):
about CEOs across the board. That's what they're Let's how
do we get these CEOs, these evil, evil sobs, How
do we get them? That's what we want. And you're
going to see a lot of this. This is a
class warfare. And the funny thing is, if you go
back and look at class warfare and revolutions, for the

(44:17):
most part, it was the intelligentsia, highly educated, usually upper
middle class or wealthy, who were able to go out
and rile up the people to get them to turn

(44:38):
on what they see as an evil group of people
or an evil societal thing like capitalism, freedom, whatever. So
and this kid is one of those. Kid, he's twenty six.

(44:59):
When you stop being a kid, When didn't they stop?
You know, I guess when you're older everybody's kid, right, Like,
I've got a My stepdaughter turns fourteen today. She's kid.
My daughter's six she's a kid. My son's fourteen, he's
a kid. My other daughter is sixteen, she's kid. I
work with people at you know, the station I'm on

(45:21):
locally here in Nashville, And I worked just over with
a guy named Mason. He's like twenty six. He's a kid, right,
So is it double your age and he's a kid?
I don't know. Three two three five, twenty four to
twenty three at Chad Benson Show, is your Twitter? Tweet

Speaker 1 (47:01):
Chad Benson.

Speaker 13 (47:02):
I genuinely think the world went downhill when McDonald's took
away the two dollars sausage mcgriddle.

Speaker 2 (47:07):
Off the all day menu.

Speaker 13 (47:08):
Genuinely, genuinely, people used to be happier. Now what it's
like four dollars. You used to be able to go
to McDonald's at five forty seven pm and get a
nice little sausage mcgriddle for dinner for two bucks. Now
what it stops at ten thirty?

Speaker 2 (47:28):
She might have a point. I'll be honest. I've never
had a mccriddle. I know, I know, I know, never
had one. I thought it was kind of weird. I
like to eat my food in a way where very

(47:51):
little autism. I don't want my food touching, and I
like to have them put on the plate correctly, so right,
Like I like sausage and I like pancakes, but I
don't want to eat I just I want to eat

(48:12):
them separately, and if they're going to be put together,
I want to do it. I don't want somebody else
to do it. Maybe I'm weird, Maybe I might be.

Speaker 13 (48:21):
This is why people are depressed, This is why people
are anxious. If maybe we could waltz up to a
McDonald at seven pm and order a sausage mcgriddle for
two dollars again like we used to be, people would
be happier. I think it would solve a lot of issues.

Speaker 2 (48:38):
Yeah, it might, It might. It might. You guys want
me to upset you a little bit more For a
lot of you out there who are celebrating thinking Burger
King put that post out there yesterday that said we
don't snitch, So everybody's like, what is this? What is this?

(49:03):
And I'm like, what are you talking about? There's a
fake post out there that makes it look like Burger
King put we don't snitch as a response to McDonald's
and them snitching if you will to get MAGGIONI cut
and that's that's not true, first of all, Like how

(49:28):
could that be real? Like that corporate? Now, corporations do
dumb things all the time, right because you got a
twenty two year old, see that is funny, and it
would be funny. But then you step back and go, hey,
do you guys want to go over to McDonald's because
I know if there's a criminal then there smitch. Don't
go over to Burger King because they'll let the CEO

(49:51):
killer go. So that wasn't real. But a lot of it,
first of all makes you laugh. And again I wouldn't
put it in a situation in your mind where that
could never happen because you have who's running these Like
who's running their social media? Is it a twenty three

(50:12):
year old? Who again is funny? And ah, that's funny,
and they look at this other guy's a hero and hey,
I work for Burgicking. That is always a possibility, and
they have a rivalry, as you guys know, So everybody
has a rivalry of McDonald's. Everybody's got a plan until
you get punched in the burger. Ooh, although I did
post something last night AI where it's a cop and

(50:36):
grimace at McDonald's pointing over to the hamburglar eating like
he's the kid. See where you're going, see see it's
not real though, but it was funny. That's really all
that matters at the end of the day. It's not
whether you want to lose, it's whether people laugh that matters.
As we talk about that the rest of the world

(50:57):
not so fortunate.

Speaker 32 (50:58):
Is ultimately great instability because none of these groups have
full control yet over the country. There is grave concern
right now as well, that isis could try to take
advantage of the chaos in Syria. So clearly, you know,
just on many many fronts right now, enormous uncertainty and
enormous instability and potentially suffering for people in Syria.

Speaker 2 (51:20):
Suffering indeed, because as we talked about once this fell apart,
remember all of these groups came together. So you have
all of these ISIS fighters. You have freedom fighters from
different walks of life. If you will arn this guy's
a tailor. Normally no, but you've got you know, these

(51:41):
people are the freedom fighters for Sheria. These people are
the freedom fighters for who knows what. Then you have,
of course the old old gees, if you will, al
Qaida over here. And then you had the guy in
his group that is running in the country, not to
mention you at the Kurds. So now you've got all

(52:02):
of these people who want a bit of something and
this guy that they're talking about here who's leading the
rebels hts aboo Mohammed al Jilani. I may may not
said that correctly his last name, and if I didn't, sorry,
I apologize. He supposedly reformed himself, was part of ISIS

(52:25):
at one time, as part of al Qaida, became a
solution now more moderate, wants to bring the country together,
says all the right things, et cetera, et cetera. Everybody
always says the right things until they don't have to
say the right things or they want all the power.
But he wants to be the uniforming leader of everything,
And I don't know how that's going to go, because again,

(52:46):
you have way too many cooks inside of the kitchen,
and everybody wants theirs. Nobody wants to be the Sioux Chef.
Everybody wants that Michelin star. Oh yeah, but we're talking
about taking him off the terror watch list. We're talking
about taking the bounty, ten million dollar bounty off of
his head. So he's trying to rebrand himself. Got himself

(53:11):
one of those fancy pr agencies, didn't ya, Didney Joli?
Got yourself a fancy pr agency, petting a dog and
an orphan. People think you're better, We know who you
really are. Three two three three, twenty four, twenty three.
I'm delusional. It's a good time though, in texta program
tweet at us. A lot of stuff still to get

(53:33):
to today. We're gonna have more on the draws. It's
crazy New Jersey. Do you think they went there? Because like,
nobody's gonna believe these guys. They're aliens. Listen, they're silly accents.
Forget about it. Look at these big things flood. It's
like a giant trash can flying around my house. You're

(53:55):
just making fun of them now, Shad, I am, but
I mean it with all due respect miss any of
the show. Grab the podcast, kids. It is the Chad Benson.

Speaker 15 (54:04):
Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (54:34):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (54:37):
What the hell is going on in New Jersey? You
guys need to figure this out. I thought you guys
were tough. These drones are everywhere handle your business.

Speaker 33 (54:47):
Mounting fears With hundreds of mysterious drone sightings over New
Jersey and Pennsylvania night after night for weeks, Officials in
New Jersey now demanding action from federal authorities, meeting with
Homeland Security Wednesday. A New Jersey legislator also in that meeting,
posting on x that the drones appear much larger than
typical hobby drones, in some cases up to six feet.

Speaker 2 (55:11):
Yeah, they're bigger than that. We're not talking about six
feet because when you hear and see the videos, that
isn't six feet. They're way bigger than that, and they're
all over the place.

Speaker 33 (55:27):
They often fly with their lights off, making them harder
to detect. Between four to one hundred and eighty sidings
per day, most often between six and eleven PM. The
unidentified aircraft spotted in the skies above military installations, neighborhoods,
and even President elect Donald Trump's Bedminster golf club.

Speaker 2 (55:46):
Why are we not shooting these down? Period? Shoot them down?

Speaker 31 (55:50):
Hell?

Speaker 2 (55:51):
That guy in Florida, was it last week or two
weeks ago? He shut down the little Walmart drone because
he didn't know what Della was doing over his house
because they didn't get anything for Walmart, but it was
hanging up over his house and he got arrested for
the damn thing. New Jersey, I expect more out of you.
Here's one of the concerned mayors.

Speaker 34 (56:10):
You've seen a drone, maybe at a wedding, or maybe
at a baseball game, or maybe to take some other pictures.
But those drones are about the size of, I don't know,
the palm of your hands or something. The drones that
are out now that are literally flying over my house,
my community's house. The families in Pequanic are the size
of the large subs, if not buses.

Speaker 2 (56:30):
That's a big ass drone. What are they doing there?
That's what I want to know. And of course the
most important question is alien or adversary? Alien or adversary?
Are they here from another dimension, another planet, another place.

(56:53):
Are they here from the water, are they living below
unidentified submerging objects? Or are they adversaries.

Speaker 34 (57:05):
We're not just talking about flying over at five or
ten or thirty thousand fleet like a regular plane. We're
talking about a couple one hundred feet over your house,
over my house.

Speaker 2 (57:16):
Shoot him down, that guy, call that guy, that old dude.
Shot down that drone the Walmart runover's house. I mean
it was Florida, but shot it down.

Speaker 34 (57:25):
I asked a very straightforward question, can you confirm to
me that these drones are not US military drones? And
they said, yes, they are not US military drones. And
I said, can you confirm whether or not they are
from a high tech company, a company like Google or
Amazon or let's say Elon Musk. They said, we can
confirm it's not from.

Speaker 2 (57:45):
Then, Okay, so what's not from then? Then who is it.
We are a need to know kind of people, and
you can't hide the fact that these things are everywhere.
So they're not a super high tech company, they are
not ours in theory. Let's be real, there are plenty
of programs that are out there that other agencies don't

(58:09):
know about. It's plausible deniability, So could it, in theory
be a darper project, yes, or could it be something
that fairies from one of our enemies. Jeff then drew
Congressman from the Garden State, New Jersey. He thinks it's ilon.

Speaker 8 (58:32):
I'm going to tell you the real deal.

Speaker 35 (58:34):
Very high sources, very qualified sources, very responsible sources. Iran
launched a mothership, probably about a month ago that contains
these drones. That mothership is off the east coast of
the United States of America. They've launched drones. Is everything
that we can see or hear, And again, these are

(58:54):
from high sources.

Speaker 8 (58:55):
I don't say this lightly.

Speaker 2 (58:58):
Ah, I'm not quite sure in buying that one, Jeff.

Speaker 35 (59:05):
We know it's not our own government, because they would
have let us know. It could have been some really
glorified hobbyist or hobbyists that we're doing something unbelievable.

Speaker 8 (59:15):
They don't have the technology. Let's pretend that's possible.

Speaker 35 (59:19):
The third possibility with somebody an adversarial country doing this.
Know that Iran made a deal with China to purchase drones,
motherships and technology in order to go forward.

Speaker 8 (59:32):
The sources I have are good.

Speaker 35 (59:34):
They can't reveal who they are because they are speaking
to me in confidentiality.

Speaker 2 (59:40):
So the Pentagon is already shooting old Jeff Andrew down.
They don't shoot the actual drones down, they shoot him down.
Say it's not Iran.

Speaker 8 (59:48):
These drones should be shot down.

Speaker 35 (59:51):
Whether it was some crazy hobbyist that we can't imagine,
or whether it is Iran, and I think it very
possibly could be, should be shot down. We are not
getting the full deal, and the military is on alert
with this.

Speaker 2 (01:00:06):
I go back to this, okay, if it is not
any one of ours, and then we go out we
find out, right, look, there's not some some group that
has raised fifty gazillion dollars and these are some sort
of flying water taxis that only practice at night so

(01:00:29):
nobody could see him because they don't want anybody to
have their stuff stolen. All right, Okay, fine, fine, let's
just if it's not somebody like that then, and it's
not DARPA. We don't know if it is, they'll see
DARPA is not going to tell you like DARPA is.
If you guys don't know what darp is. That's that

(01:00:50):
thing when you're looking at the budget and it just
says a trillion dollars and that's it. Everybody else has
all this stuff that's them. It's the stuff that he
couldn't even imagine that they do, like cloaking devices and
things of that nature. It's the stuff that keeps all
the other countries really awake at night, not the stuff
they know we have, the stuff we don't. So if

(01:01:11):
it's not them, then your choice is it's adversarial or
it's aliens. Boom. I knew it. I knew it. It's aliens.
Could it be? Well, it's got to be something, right, Like,
it can't just be a hobbyist who went online to
Amazon grabbed himself a bunch of bus like drones to

(01:01:34):
fly around and fly well out of the ocean too.
Like even somebody, we're talking way out there, and you're
a hobbyist and you have how many of these? School

(01:01:56):
to you. I just find the whole thing again. It
is fascinating that we can't figure it out. Although there
was that prediction, you guys don't know what the prediction was.
There was a guy I think his last name is Hill.
He made a prediction like twelve or fifteen years ago.

(01:02:19):
It's pretty creepy that Donald Trump would be on Joe
Rogan's podcast, and I don't even think Rogan had a
podcast at that time, and that like thirty five days
afterwards or forty days afterwards, something like that, that there
would be a battle between Earth and essentially aliens. Maybe

(01:02:48):
it's that. Tell you what if aliens showed up, the
media'd be like, oh, man, are we off the hook
with the Trump thing? Three two three twenty four twenty

You've come to the perfect place for takeout.

Speaker 36 (01:04:57):
Has unveiled their short list of nominees for Person of
the Year. The list includes Joe Rogan, Kamala Harris, Donald Trump,
Mark Zuckerberg, Benjamin Nett, and Yahoo, Kate Middleton and Elon Musk.
Is Elon Musk a person because I've seen.

Speaker 2 (01:05:10):
No evidence of that it Can.

Speaker 36 (01:05:12):
You imagine if Elon Musk gets Person of the Year
over Donald Trump, That'll be end of that land. The
Trump that romance will blow up like a SpaceX rockets.

Speaker 2 (01:05:22):
Maybe that is funny though, Now that's that's the stuff
that drives Trump crazy. Something little like that. Why aren't
I And that's the stuff that when I talk to
most people, they who support Trump, they understand they get
frustrated too, So they get frustrated that something that little.

(01:05:46):
It's like, why are you focusing on that? Although he's
been let's let's let's be completely honest here, talked about
it throughout a bit of the show today. Relatively quiet
for the last several days. Some truth here from there,
he did the you know, went over to Notre Dame.

(01:06:07):
But Trump has been relatively quiet. His nominees. They're getting
put through the ringer in some cases and other cases
they're vetting them. And it's quiet, but relatively quiet. So
everybody enjoyed this while you can speaking. The Time magazine's
person of the Year, the athlete of the Year was
Caitlin Clark, and there's all this controversy because she talked

(01:06:29):
about the white privilege she has. You know, in the league,
the WNBA was built on the back of black players,
and people were freaking out. You know, the people on
the right or pass people on the left are like, yeah,
it's about time you acknowledge your privilege. And it's first
of all, know that that's a bunch of crap, all
the whole thing. He's talking to a couple of people. Yes, Ray,

(01:06:50):
I'm like, can you acknowledge that there's some advantages in life?
Of course, by the way, there's advantage for all kinds
of things, Like Lebron James has an advantage over the
average human being because they're not built like that. They
don't have the athleticism that he has. Just naturally, just
never what's going to happen, but never apologize for being

(01:07:10):
the color that you are. That's the dumbest thing in
the world. And I can make fun of the WNBA
because it deserves it, and it's not very nice yet
I know, I know, but what she did it's tough
to argue against. You did that, right, Okay, So you're
born white, so that's where you figure advantages. So if
you never picked up a basketball, would that have made you?

(01:07:33):
If you could you walk out to the WNBA if
you've never picked out a basketball ever before in your life, No,
you can't. Maybe, but no, you put in the hard work,
you did all of that. You did all of that
and diminishing those because you want other people to feel better.
That's that's stupid. That's a dumb thing to do. So

(01:07:55):
never apologize for who you are. So tell my kids,
never apologize. If you got a teacher that says, you know,
you're blessed because you're white and your publicly, just never
apologized for that. Look, can't control how I was born,
But what you do with it, that's the thing that
matters period. Speaking of doing something with it, the prodigal

(01:08:15):
husband has returned. So you guys remember the story about
the kayaker who disappeared in Wisconsin and then was over
in Georgia. Who's Beckett's to Anders somewhere right, left his
whole family behind? Oh yes, well, he's come home.

Speaker 37 (01:08:27):
And accused of faking his own death and starting a
new life with another woman overseas. Is now facing the music.
In the good old USA. Ryan Borgwart was booked into
a Wisconsin jail after flying home yesterday and surrendering to authorities.
Sheriff Mark Hodall announced the surprise twist at a news
conference today.

Speaker 5 (01:08:48):
He came back on his own, got on an airplane
and landed in the United States.

Speaker 2 (01:08:56):
Yeah, so I totally disappeared, faked his own He's got kids,
got a wife, and got kind of elaborate and then
bounced and then I don't know where he shows up again.
A dal trodden Borgwarts appeared in court this afternoon. I
had twenty The judge entered a not guilty plea on

(01:09:17):
his behalf and set bail at just five hundred dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:09:21):
He has come back, apparently halfway around the world.

Speaker 5 (01:09:24):
Voluntarily turned himself in. That shows to the court that
he does not appeared to risk.

Speaker 37 (01:09:30):
So where was he all this time? In the nation
of Georgia, once part of the old Soviet Union? Where
he was apparently living with the woman he met online.
Borgwark decided to come home after appeals from law enforcement
and his family. He abandoned four months ago when he
faked his own drowning in a kayak accident.

Speaker 38 (01:09:51):
After police abandoned the search for Ryan Borgwart's body and
announced that his drowning was staged, he sent authorities this
proof of life video without revealing where he was in
my apartment.

Speaker 8 (01:10:04):
I am.

Speaker 24 (01:10:07):
Let me see I'm see here.

Speaker 37 (01:10:09):
Now it's back to reality for the dad who left
his family to start a new life.

Speaker 2 (01:10:15):
So how do we break this down? Well, first and foremost,
I don't know what your relationship was like with your wife.
Obviously it wasn't solid. I don't know what the deal is,
but I have a feeling you fell in love with
some smoking hot Eastern European who promised you the world
if you could just got me on It looked great,
and you decided, rather than tell you I've fallen in

(01:10:38):
love with some weirdo halfway around the world, you did what.
You faked your own death. Crazy like I mean, they
look for like a month. So he faces some real
jail time, maybe even some federal offenses, but they want
that forty grand back that it cost them to search for.
Then you go over there, right, and you're probably promising

(01:10:59):
this woman in the world. And you get there and
after a while you run out of money and she
runs out of love for you. And then you come home.
Your wife is one thing, but your kids are like, really, Dad,
you left us for some hoe somewhere else. I don't

(01:11:21):
think you should say that, Chad, you bounced. By the way,
she's probably back on the internet trying to get unsuspecting
men to send her money and to come over to Georgia,
and they're buying into it. And you did the full manty.
You went all the way over there. Oh it's a shame.
Love didn't work the way that he thought it was

(01:11:44):
going to cost him a lot, cost him his marriage,
probably a relationship with his kids for a while, and
forty grand. But the good news is, sir, there's plenty
of video evidence to remember this, so you can show
your grandkids one day. Hey, grandkids, come on over here.
Did I tell you about the time I skipped out
on Grandma and your dad to fly halfway around the
world to meet some smoking hottie. I love your stories,

(01:12:07):
Grandpa three, two, three, five three, twenty four, twenty three
at Chad Benson Show, it's your Twitter, your Instagram coming out.
We got a what's trending. In the next hour, we're
gonna have your Christmas movie countdown. So and how we're
doing it now is we're counting down the greatest movies
in genres for Christmas time. Today we're doing horror. Tomorrow

(01:12:30):
we're gonna do action, then we're gonna do family and animated,
then we're gonna do comedy, and then the last show
of the year for us, we're going to do the countdown,
which is the greatest Christmas movie period case close of
all time. You mes see any show, grab the podcast
chat Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:12:55):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:13:24):
If you think it's just about healthcare, you're wrong. This
is a class warfare issue. A younger generation, in particular millennials.
Some gen zers pissed angry because they feel that they
got sold to Bill of Goods see the rest of
the world and think they lie to us. Said if

(01:13:45):
we go to college, we do this, this, and this,
we'd have all of these things, and instead all we
have is debt and depression and they're angry. Yes, the
healthcare issue is a big deal, but this is a
class warfare issue. And who's lee the charge. Mostly upper
middle class white kids who've been overly educated at big colleges,

(01:14:08):
who think that everything that somebody does that puts them
further ahead in life is evil and bad, and that
capitalism is the cause of all that is evil. Forgetting
the fact that capitalism has brought more people out of
poverty than anything else. It doesn't matter because now you've

(01:14:29):
defined the ultimate bad guy. White guy fifties successful CEO
is the monster to them, and so you have to
go after them. You have to. And while the healthcare
industry deserves a wake up call, this was evil. This
was bad killing people because you're pissed at something. And

(01:14:54):
again I have no idea exactly the relationship with United
Healthcare and the LUIGI if there was something there. Like
I said yesterday, you figure if you had issues with
your back and you had surgery and it didn't go
the way you wanted it to go, that you'd be

(01:15:14):
pissed at your doctor, not the healthcare industry as a whole,
but a lot of people are Number one, cost of
bankruptcy in the country, anyone, anyone medical debt United Healthcare,
what about thirty four thirty six percent denial? I think
the average is about sixteen, maybe eighteen. And we can
be honest. We when you get denied certain things, A

(01:15:38):
lot of times they schedule tests that you don't need.
So it's not all the evil that is healthcare. But
it's the best we got until we come up with
something better. But when it comes to medical debt, people
are frustrated. It is massive and the cost of everything
which is over done. It's like that's an aspirin, how

(01:16:01):
much ten bucks? It's all about moving numbers around so
you can write stuff off and maximize your profit.

Speaker 19 (01:16:07):
I remember seeing a bill for twenty thousand dollars and
it kind of, you know, knocks you off your feet,
knowing you had insurance and not expecting to incur those
kinds of things.

Speaker 39 (01:16:16):
Unfortunately, like millions of other people, one thousand dollars unexpected
bill was not something I could afford.

Speaker 26 (01:16:22):
They're suing us for not paying right, but they're also
seeing my husband. My husband never got services there, so
they threatened that they could take our land and that
they would garnish his wages if we didn't pay.

Speaker 7 (01:16:40):
When my daughter was first diagnosed, we were facing a
non known volume of debt. It turns out that Aspen's
total cost of care was over a million dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:16:51):
Crazy. My little brother Spencer. If you guys don't know,
and you're new to the show, god bless it, thanks
so much for paying attention. Ah. My sister had lot
of issues, drugs, party too much, did a bunch of
things that were poor choices, if you will. And she
had a bunch of kids, of which my mother has
adopted all of them. My mother and Nat. So I

(01:17:13):
have little brothers all the way down the twelve and
I've got a twenty five year old sister and twenty
four year old brother. And you know, a twenty two
year old sister, and I have a twenty one year
old brother. His name is Spencer. Now, my sister did
a whole bunch of drugs with Spencer. He is in

(01:17:35):
a wheelchair. He's got cerebral palsy and the worst kind
of syrup pulse you can think of. He is a board.
He has a G tube that's how he eats. He
has a trick that's how he breathes. He can't walk,
he can't talk. He wasn't supposed to live through the night,
let alone twenty one years when on accident. They send

(01:17:58):
my mother a bill for the time he was in
the hospital when he was first born, because he was
a mess. Like I said, they didn't think he was
going to make it a couple days. It's three million
dollars three million. It's crazy. Think about the average person.
The state picked that up. My sister didn't have anything
and she just left. But you know, it's trying to

(01:18:19):
get blood from a turn up, right, You're never going
to do it. Medical bills are ferocious in the industry
is heartless at times. Let's be real, because we've been
reduced to a number, a policy number, not a human being.

(01:18:40):
And everybody's individual story is compelling, but if you've got five, ten, fifteen,
twenty thirty million people, it's hard to get down to
the individual. Again, it's a business and that's what we're
argue with it. And people want to be heard and

(01:19:00):
they want to be seen, and they don't want to
be treated as a number. This is a guy who
used to treat the people as a number, same as
Wendell Potter. He used to work for Signa. He has
since left and became a whistleblower. And his final straw
was a young girl who needed something.

Speaker 5 (01:19:17):
Madeline Serkesian was seventeen years old, needed to deliver.

Speaker 39 (01:19:20):
Transplant, but a SIGNA of medical directors that he didn't
think it was medically necessary for her. He delayed that
transplant for day and day's sigma because of the that publicity.
Eventually agreed to pay for it, but by this time
she had gotten sicker and just died a few hours
after SIGNA agreed to pay for a transplant. That happened.

(01:19:41):
That was in two thousand and seven.

Speaker 2 (01:19:43):
So that kind of was the straw that broke the
camel's back for this guy, and he has been champing
the cause of the insurance company versus the patient, not
the policy number.

Speaker 39 (01:19:58):
Since then, these companies have are using what's referred to
as prior authorization much more aggressively than they were back then.
I knew that people were not getting the care that
they need. People were dying prematurely, they were suffering and pain,
and I think this is going of brage, is what
you're seeing people more and more, people are experiencing them.

Speaker 2 (01:20:17):
More and more and more and more again, because you're
a policy number, you're not a patient. And I think
you know when I talk to people about this over
the last you know, a couple weeks, and when I've
talked to people in the past, they want transparency. They
want to know that they matter. Well, that's between you

(01:20:37):
and the healthcare provider, your doctor, But for the insurance
company it's tough because you're one of a billion people
essentially a little bit much. But you understand what I'm saying,
and you're a policy number. People want transparency and they
want to know they matter. And at the end of
the day, as I said with Brian Thompson, he no
longer was serving his customers, the people who were policyholders

(01:21:02):
and patience because he's not a doctor. His customers the
people he needed to make happy. Those people are policyholders.
That's why he was in New York.

Speaker 5 (01:21:11):
It is it is a common practice.

Speaker 39 (01:21:13):
Is one of the barriers these companies have erected to
enable them to enrich their shareholders. Even more referencing that
investor day that United was holding the day of the murder,
that is that is the stakeholder that is most important
to these companies.

Speaker 5 (01:21:27):
The shareholder and wall Street financial analyst.

Speaker 39 (01:21:29):
It's all about how can you reward shareholders and what
you have to do that is detrimental to the people
who are enrolling your health plans.

Speaker 2 (01:21:37):
Deny, Deny, deny. People want transparency. They asked the question,
why am I paying all this money to you every
single month, and yet when I need it, it's not there.
People are frustrated. They want transparency. They want it to
be simple, especially when they're in situations where they're dealing
with their health. One of the reasons that people are
raging three two three five three eight, twenty four to

(01:21:58):

Let's find out. What's treading on the into webs today
today today, little baseball thing there in the old days.
When you sit now today today, today, those cavernous stadiums
start with Yahoo TikTok, New Jersey drones. The drones, not
the name of a team, although it should be. That

(01:24:22):
sounds pretty cool. Malabou fire is Malibu still there. You
guys are worried about the ocean. Here comes to fire.
It's not very nice. Chet Bill Belichick's decided, Hey, I'm
the greatest coach in football history, so I'm going to
coach in college so I can scare the crap out

(01:24:43):
of young men and teenagers. Kids. Let me give you
a bit of advice on time is late. It's all
you need to know. Luigi Manngeon, Daniel Penny, and Mitch McConnell. See,
dude needs to stop. You need to go away, give

(01:25:06):
it up. And I know you don't want to. There's
a fear factor that the minute you stopped doing what
you're doing, that that's it. It's over, and your life
is over and you're going to die. But you might
have already died and we don't know it yet. This
could just be your ghost going through the motions, Benny Blanco,
it's trending. Why why is he trending? Got engaged to

(01:25:28):
Selena Gomez. Good for you, that's a win. He's definitely
punching up Facebook. Instagram down yesterday. The Drones of New
Jersey also on Google Trending Chat GPT was down yesterday
as well. Last night. You've got the I love this,
Love this. Elon musk net worth is trending. He must

(01:25:52):
have made some more money or something happened. Oh my bad, Elon,
I'm sorry. Four hundred billion that's what he's worth. Now.
It's a whole new different game now because I'm gonna
say something. This is so ridiculous. That is, he could
lose half his net worth and still probably the richest

(01:26:13):
person on the planet. Oh my goodness. And here's the thing.
He didn't care about money like the way I think
people think he does. And finally over to Twitter Warriors,

(01:26:33):
Selena Gomez, Voice of America, Pods, the Knicks, w Burger.
I haven't had a water burger forever ever and ever
Real Housewives of It's LC's that one. Where are they

(01:26:55):
at now? Carson City, Nevada? They run out of places,
Fresno pick the worst town. You guys have picked the white,
trashiest town ever. The Real Housewives of the Trailer Park.
That's where they're at now. It's not very nice. Chad
Van Jones, Mark Zuckerberg, five guys all trending in the

(01:27:19):
magical world of Twitter three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show, It's your
Twitter tweet at his text to program. The New Jersey
drones are not a sports team. They're not a sports
ball team, Chad. They're not. What they are is scaring
the crap out of pretty much everybody in and around

(01:27:41):
on the coast.

Speaker 34 (01:27:42):
We're not just talking about flying over at five or
ten or thirty thousand fleet like a regular plane. We're
talking about a couple of hundred feet over your house,
over my house.

Speaker 2 (01:27:52):
I not my house, because I don't live there, but
I do understand that that's pretty low for the size
of these things. And that's the other side of it.
We don't know what they are. Could they be aliens?
It's possible. It is possible. In the first place, they
want to go to New Jersey.

Speaker 34 (01:28:10):
I know you've seeing a drone, maybe at a wedding
or maybe at a baseball game or maybe to take
some other pictures. But those drones are about the size
of I don't know, the palm.

Speaker 2 (01:28:18):
Of your hands or something.

Speaker 34 (01:28:19):
The drones that are out now that are literally flying
over my house, my community's house. The families in Pequanic
are the size of the large subs, if not buses.

Speaker 2 (01:28:32):
Now again, we've talked about it throughout the show because
it's fascinating. These are not ours, supposedly, and it's not
a one like if it's a one, you like somebody's
really rich and bought something on one of those skymall
magazines and thinks this is fun, or there's somebody's got

(01:28:55):
a startup. But these are not ours. They're not aliens supposedly.
We don't know that yet that could lead to this.
Then it's an adversary of some sort testing things out,
and they're like, Okay, the first place we're going to
test that is New Jersey. Nobody's gonna care about what
happens to the people in New Jersey, which is not
fair because you people are lovely. It's not very nice jet.

(01:29:18):
It is interesting though, and I go back to this.
I was talking yesterday and my buddy Mason, I said,
would you rather it be an adversary or aliens? If
those are your two choices? Because it's not a startup,
it's not unless it's one of those taxis, those services.
Nobody's talked about that. But why are you flying out

(01:29:39):
over the ocean right like you're not going to go? Hey,
I know you got to go from point A to
point B, but let me take you to the ocean.
So if it's an adversary alien, those might be the
only two choices. And let's do alien. See what that's
all about. Bob three two three, five, three, eight, twenty
four to twenty three At Jeed Benson Show's Youare Twitter?

(01:30:00):
Coming up, we're doing a Christmas movie countdown and we're
doing by genre. So today we're doing the scariest Christmas
movie of all time hint hint, Walks on Hooves and
it's very popular. Yeah. Interesting, right, and we'll talk about
that plus more drone talk, Aliens or adversaries three two, three,

(01:30:27):
five four twenty three at Chad Benson Show, Your Twitter,
your Instagram chat Benson Show TV on the old YouTube.
Check that out. It is the Chad Benson.

Speaker 15 (01:30:35):
Shown Chad Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (01:31:09):

Speaker 29 (01:31:11):
The Mystery of what's over New Jersey. It's not just
stink and stink and smug?

Speaker 2 (01:31:18):
Could it be aliens? Representative Jeff v and Drew thinks
it's adversaries.

Speaker 8 (01:31:25):
I'm going to tell you the real deal.

Speaker 35 (01:31:27):
Very high sources, very qualified sources, very responsible sources. Iran
launched a mothership, probably about a month ago that contains
these drones. That mothership is off the east coast of
the United States of America. They've launched drones. Is everything
that we can see or hear. And again these are

(01:31:47):
from high sources. I don't say this lightly.

Speaker 2 (01:31:51):
I don't buy that that they're that close and can
do something. This is a retired sergeant major who deal
with a lot of this stuff saying, you got it
could be a foreign adversary. You've got to make sure
you're aware. But you get to also take a new
account that you know, them being that close to our shore,
with the capability of the batteries, it probably not something

(01:32:15):
they could happen if you.

Speaker 5 (01:32:16):
Think about it.

Speaker 6 (01:32:16):
Drones, today's modern drones, you know, they really can fly
for at best about an hour depending on the type,
depending on the level and a lot of these things
are being tested right now. You're testing the systems. You're
testing the batteries, you're taking communication, the propulsion systems, the
stale technologies, and the sensors, which are.

Speaker 5 (01:32:33):
The most important thing. That the drone is just a platform.

Speaker 6 (01:32:36):
It's what are you putting on that drone that gives
it a capability for someone, whether it's an adversary. So
to have a ship off the coast and to be
able to fly in in an hour, about an hour
stay time, persistent stay time is what we'd call it
would be a very tough thing. So, so whether it's so,
I would discount the.

Speaker 2 (01:32:55):
Ship, I discount the ship being that close and a
rain ship and us not figure that out. Now, the
balloon issue, we go back to that over and over again.
That balloon flew over all over the place and we
did very little, and that was embarrassing. Yet another embarrassment

(01:33:16):
for this president. So if they were an adversary, because
everybody's like, why aren't you shooting them down? And I
go back to, you know, the whole aliens versus adversary thing,
it doesn't mean just because they're not ours wink win,
doesn't mean they're not ours. So it's funny when they asked,
like we asked everybody, like is Elon building something? Is

(01:33:39):
Amazon and Google building something? No, but it doesn't mean
there aren't groups out there that maybe work with them
that aren't building something. And I go back to DARPA
over and over again. You don't know what DARPA is.
DARPA is a super secret program, Defense Advance Research Project Agency.

(01:34:00):
They come up with super crazy stuff like crazy cloaking devices,
stuff that you know, bullets and guns that can shoot,
you know, guns that can shoot you know, I mean
see through walls and bullets that can turn corners. I mean,
they come up with all the stuff that you would
think of, like, oh my god, that's what they come

(01:34:21):
up with. And they're super quiet and sneaky. So just
because they're wink wink, not ours, doesn't mean they're not ours. Well,
I what I.

Speaker 6 (01:34:30):
Would say is that it may not be military, but
they could be test in support of the military that
are from the private sector, and therefore you have a
plausible deniability that they're not yours. But are we testing
drones in many forms, many autonomous systems. Some locations we're
testing cars. And when you see these bigger systems that

(01:34:51):
could account for that. In other cases you're seeing resupply
the size of regular aircraft that are being resupplied that
are autonomous systems. So I don't think it's that you
need to engage kinetically and take these things down until
you get a little bit more information from the government
and from all the different agencies.

Speaker 2 (01:35:10):
Translation probably ours adjacent, you would hope, because they're big,
They're not a hobbyist that we do know. So Jeff
Andrews come out and said he didn't say one hundred
percent for sure, so that it might be an adversary.
But when you think about it, you how close are

(01:35:33):
you going to let a ship get to our country
to fly drones off of and not get caught. I
don't know what kind of submarine to Ronda has, but
I doubt they're very could and I don't think they're
going to get that close. I mean, hell, there's a
love fisherman off the coast in New Jersey. They probably
see him. So I don't think, because you'd have to

(01:35:57):
think about even you know, unless they're nuclear powered, they
can fly forever, which will be next I No. No.
Three two, three, five, three eight twenty four to twenty
three at Chad Benson Show. It's your Twitter, your Instagram,
all of the other things. So the CEO killer is
they've got enough now that linking him to this in

(01:36:20):
a major way. This is not like could it be
and I've got you know, you get the people out
there that are are you know, the usual loons who
are it's too convenient duck at all the stuff they got,
it's too convenient. Oh, but they've they've got enough now
where it's like, Okay, I don't know what more you need.

(01:36:44):
Get your fingerprints, we got your DNA, we got everything.

Speaker 23 (01:36:46):
Investigators say they have their first forensic match from fingerprints
on a water bottle and snackbar wrapper near the crime
scene to the ghost gun police say was used to
murder United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Detectives also now have
what they consider to be a confession, a spiral notebook
that sources say contains plans for how to kill Thompson.

Speaker 5 (01:37:05):
What do you do?

Speaker 23 (01:37:06):
One passage allegedly read, you whack the CEO at the
Annual Parasitic Bean counter Convention. It's targeted, precise and doesn't
risk innocence.

Speaker 2 (01:37:16):
You probably get it more people show up. If you
didn't put parasitic bean counter convention, it's this is him, man,
I mean, this is it. This is what we've got
going on right now. This is him. We understand that.
And while healthcare was the thing you went after first,

(01:37:37):
the reality is, as I've been saying throughout today, this
is not just about healthcare. And it's a good conversation.
Half this though, is anti capitalistic, absolutely class warfare.

Speaker 23 (01:37:49):
The NYPD is alarmed. The alleged killer is seen by
some as a martyr, inspiring wanted posters outside the New
York Stock Exchange with the names of other corporate executives.
Law enforcement bulletin obtained by ABC News warns many social
media users have outright advocated for the continued killings of CEOs,
with some aiming this red fear by posting hit lists

(01:38:12):
of CEOs.

Speaker 2 (01:38:13):
We've moved on now from just being healthcare oriented, we've
moved away from that to just CEOs in general on
Wall Street, so that they've upped the ante there with
more and more people member Occupy Wall Street. Well, now
people are like, well, maybe we've got to take it further,
because you're not going to get somewhere right You can't
have a revolution without violence, is what you're starting to

(01:38:35):
hear a lot on the streets, which is super scary.
But people are pissed. People are angry because there's.

Speaker 3 (01:38:41):
A long simmering rage right now amongst Americans, and I
think a lot of them see this as sort of
a representation of their rage exploding in the most inappropriate fashion,
because what will this actually get us other than mean
in the immediate term, probably just more security for more
CEOs around the country. I think that if if you
want to institute actual change, all of those people who

(01:39:03):
are going on TikTok right now and celebrating him and
talking about his looks and all of that, they should
be going and doing sit ins on Capitol Hill. They
should be going, and they should learn about the policy.

Speaker 2 (01:39:12):
They're not interested in policy. They're raging. They're angry. University
of Penn celebrated one of the socialists professors. They are
celebrated the gunman. This is a class warfare, and the
funny thing is upper middle class intelligensia are spreading this BS.
We can have conversations all day about capitalism. It's the

(01:39:35):
best system in the world until you find something better.
Nothing has brought more people out of poverty than capitalism.
But you've got a young group of people, We're going
to school being indoctrinated, feeling like the world's leaving behind,
that they don't have a future, and they're pissed and
angry and trying to get something changed via politics. Isn't

(01:39:59):
what they're interested in. Three two, three, five, three eight,

As I promised, I do a countdown every year for
all kinds of stuff. As you guys know, it's a
lot of fun. Why be boring like everybody else is
just poltics, not me. So we've counted down the greatest
Christmas songs, and now we've moved on to great Christmas movies.
Now I've done something different. I went genres. So Christmas

(01:41:56):
movies like great horror Christmas movies, great action Christmas movies,
great comedy Christmas movies like rom comms, comedies you know,
and great children's movies. And we'll follow it up on
the last day before a Christmas break with the Greatest
Christmas movie of all time. But today we start with

(01:42:20):
the Great Christmas Tradition of horror, and many people go,
wait what, Yes, there is a huge Christmas tradition of horror.
Let's count it down the scariest, greatest Christmas horror movie
of all time. Merry Christmas.

Speaker 21 (01:42:40):
It's time for the Great Christmas countdown, the five Greatest
Christmas movies of all time.

Speaker 5 (01:42:51):
Merry Christmas.

Speaker 2 (01:42:52):
I felt the animal.

Speaker 22 (01:42:53):
Surprised Eddie if I woke up tomorrow with my headphone
at the car, But I wouldn't be more surprised than
I am right now.

Speaker 17 (01:43:00):
Win in recombination?

Speaker 25 (01:43:01):
Do you want to read my lesson?

Speaker 2 (01:43:03):
You shoot your eye out?

Speaker 5 (01:43:04):
Kid?

Speaker 23 (01:43:04):
What does you want?

Speaker 13 (01:43:05):
Mary?

Speaker 1 (01:43:05):
What do you want?

Speaker 8 (01:43:06):
You want the moon?

Speaker 16 (01:43:07):
Just say the word and I'll throw a lasshole around
and pug down.

Speaker 2 (01:43:12):
So great Christmas horror movies, and there's plenty of them.
There's Silent Night, There's Santa Slagh, there's Black Christmas done
a few times. Some people call gremlins I got a
ruling on that one that that's not so much a
great horror movie. But Nope, when it comes to Christmas

(01:43:36):
movies and horror, there are a few that do it right.
In twenty fifteen, the movie came out That was awesome,
and since this Creature, if you Will, has become quite
popular amongst the North Americans, but very well known throughout
the Scandinavian countries. The scariest, coolest horror Christmas movie of

(01:43:58):
all time Grampus, It's the most wonderful time, the.

Speaker 24 (01:44:12):
It's thet Christmas, It's Christmas, It's Christmas.

Speaker 5 (01:44:19):
With those holiday.

Speaker 25 (01:44:30):
Saint Nicholas is not coming this year. Instead a much
darker ancient spirit. He and his helpers did not come to.

Speaker 19 (01:44:43):
Give, but to take.

Speaker 8 (01:44:47):
Going.

Speaker 25 (01:44:53):
He is the shadow of Saint Nicholas.

Speaker 5 (01:44:58):
Nothing bad's gonna happen on Christmas.

Speaker 2 (01:45:05):
So the movie starts out upper middle class family people
are coming over for Christmas, set in like a Buffalo area,
lots of snow but still beautiful outside. And let's just
say that they're a family that fights, they don't get along,
the kids don't really mix well, and Max, the star
of the movie, gets pissed, tears up his Christmas list
and throws it out, and that's when Crampas says, oh,

(01:45:28):
and the whole town goes dark and powers all off,
and then the blizzard comes in. That's fog and blizzard.
It is creepy, and Crampis brings his minions and there
are many. Now, if you know anything about Crampis, Crampis
is essentially think of him as kind of a half
brother of Santa Claus, I sing Nicholas. He follows him

(01:45:50):
in his shadows and he shows up on Crampus Night,
immediately before the Feast of Saint Nichols on the sixth
of December. Now, if you go online, I'm sure you'll
see lots of people dressed as Crampas doing things throughout
places like the Bavarian countries, you know, Austria, Germany and Switzerland,
things like that. It is creepy. He is coming after

(01:46:11):
the kids who, let's just say, they're not very good
and he's coming for them. Where's he taking him to
the woods? Maybe? Hmmm. It is creepy. And the festivals
that are out there are awesome because people really get

(01:46:33):
into it. And this movie is exactly kind of that
thing where because of how dark. It is outside because
of it, and it's got a lot of comedy elements
into it as well, but also because of the setting
with the fog and the snow and everybody's kind of
separated and you're watching everybody fight. It is crazy to

(01:46:55):
watch the way that this thing goes down, but it's
also kind of funny at time, and it's also where
you realize you love your family and you need your family.
It is a fun and creepy movie. And as many
people say they were surprise they got a PG thirteen.

(01:47:15):
When they actually did the movie, starring Adam Scott and
Tony Collette, you'd recognize them. It was amazingly fun movie.
It's got a lot of sweet sentiment to it. The
guy who directed it has directed a ton of big things,
including one of the great Halloween movies of all time,
Trigger Treat, but also Godzilla, the King, Godzilla Versus Kong,

(01:47:39):
just the name of few and he is well, he
knows what he's doing. Let's just say that it's a
fun movie, it's a creepy movie, and I think you'd
like it. So our best horror movie for this Christmas
countdown is Crampus three two, three, five, twenty four to
twenty three at Chad Benson Scholl to Twitter, your Instagram,

(01:47:59):
all the other things. Is that time of the show,
and we bid you ado until tomorrow. So you know
what that means? A little words of wisdom for our
uncle Gary. No, it's time for the Gary Pucy moment
of the day.

Speaker 41 (01:48:14):
What I do when I work up every day is uh, say,
I have great faith and what are we going to
do today and what's happening. I don't worry about anything
because that only get in the way of your forward movement.

Speaker 5 (01:48:29):
