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

Speaker 2 (00:13):
And with the flick of a wrist and the signature.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
America transforms what I don't know, something.

Speaker 4 (00:25):
To do with pardons, executive orders, and actions constitution. My god,
we're already under a crisis and we're yet to be
forty eight hours into his rule as Dicktator.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Good way to describe it right there. Just I don't
know what's more entertaining, the.

Speaker 4 (00:50):
Weird celebrations by some people out there or the horror
that some people are feeling. Oh, Chad, you just don't
get it. It's the world's coming to And I know,
I know it's crazy. You know what should be talked about.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Yesterday, And we're going to talk about it because that's
who we are and that's what we do.

Speaker 4 (01:11):
The whole Stargate AI thing, No, not the movie. They
haven't built something we can walk through and go back.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
In time yet that.

Speaker 4 (01:20):
That's going to revolutionize human history, that is going to
change things. We can't even fathom how amazing that's going
to be until they take over and kill us. But
until then, it's gonna be awesome. But instead it's all
about birthright citizenship J six folks.

Speaker 5 (01:41):
Trump is defending his pardons for the more than fifteen
hundred defendants from the January sixth the attack of the Capitol,
including those who attacked officers.

Speaker 6 (01:49):
These people have already served years in prison.

Speaker 5 (01:52):
As the rioters were released, celebrations outside the jail in Washington,
Oath Keepers founder Stuart Road, who was serving eighteen years
for seditious conspiracy, thinking Trump God.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
Saved his wife and then he turned around him and
saved us on Capitol.

Speaker 5 (02:07):
He'll some Republican lawmakers apparently caught off guard others supporting
the move.

Speaker 4 (02:13):
I think the oatkeeper, as I like to call him,
I think he's a clown. And this is what I'm
going to say about this. A vast majority of the
people were peaceful. They were stupid. You were somewhere you
weren't supposed to be. It's a misdemeanor. Here's a fine,
go away there. Problem solved. Some of you who are
idiots who attacked police officers, you got what you got.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
Now. Were they overcharged in some cases? Yes?

Speaker 4 (02:40):
Did they have the book thrown at him and then
some in some cases yes, did the full might of
the United States government unlimited pockets absolutely crushing people? Yeah,
but you went somewhere you weren't supposed to be. You
fought with police officers, You broke into things, you took things,
you did things you shouldn't done in people's offices. You

(03:04):
you are not the average person that was walking through there,
staying in the velvet ropes.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
You were not. So it's interesting a couple of my
buddies like.

Speaker 4 (03:17):
I could never say that because my listeners live for
these people. I told my wife yesterday, you're not a
political prisoner. You're not the person who did absolutely nothing
as far as walking into a place they shouldn't have been.
You should have had a fine and a misdemeanor, and

(03:39):
that should You shouldn't have your life ruined for that.
We talked about that yesterday. That shouldn't be Your life
should not be ruined for that. You are not going
to have a revolution and overthrow a government with a
woman named Nancy. Just isn't gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Who's our leader, Nancy? It is it.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
But as I was sitting there talking a couple of
my buddies yesterday like, well they were this and they
were that, I said, hey, guys, what do you think
about immigration? The's people here illegally. You mean there's somewhere
they're not supposed to be. Well, but it's different. No,
it's not different. They did something they weren't supposed to do.
It doesn't mean you punishing forever. But some of them,

(04:20):
and I said this, you're a law and order conservative,
MAGA person, we support the cops that if your law
and order, A lot of that was awful. A lot
of that was absolutely something that if it was in
any other setting, you would have been throw the book
at them. So I think we need to separate the two.

(04:43):
And I'm all about giving people second chances. You guys
know that you listen to the show. Absolutely that being said,
let's be honest, some of these people thought they were
gonna do something. They were there for the revolution even
though there wasn't any And I don't blame Trump for

(05:03):
people doing stupid stuff.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
It was a pardon.

Speaker 7 (05:07):
A series of partens, clements and clemency actions then went.

Speaker 8 (05:12):
Even beyond what the advocates.

Speaker 7 (05:14):
For those prisoners, those people in prison for attacking the
capital expected. Every single person, including those that attacks police
officers with flagpoles, baseball bats two by fours.

Speaker 4 (05:29):
So I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy we said yesterday.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
You climb on your horse.

Speaker 4 (05:36):
Right, then you get on your soapbox, go onto the
moral mountain, and you want to talk about how that
person is suspecting the eye, and what do you have
in your eye?

Speaker 2 (05:48):
You get that big log. People deserve a second chance,
and you shouldn't have been saying that. With ninety nine.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
Percent of these people. It should have just been a
misdemeanor fine, and you went on with your life, had
a story to tell your kids.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
This is going to be in the books.

Speaker 4 (06:05):
But instead, again government went after and because of that,
here we are still talking about something that we shouldn't
be talking about.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
And the left, you guys live for this stuff.

Speaker 4 (06:19):
You do January sixth is your day of infamy, and
you won't let it go because you think there's political
capital there, so you're going to continue.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
To run with it. So alas here we are.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
Then we moved from January sixth, the day of infamy,
to this.

Speaker 5 (06:39):
One of Trump's executive orders will face its first legal
test tomorrow. A judge in Seattle will consider a temporary
restraining order against Trump's directive ending birthright citizenship, a guarantee
under the Fourteenth Amendment, which declares any person born on
US soil an American citizen. The Trump administration also authorizing
immigration agents to schools and churches, revoking a policy blocking

(07:03):
arrests in sensitive areas. The city of Denver now giving
instructions to city employees on what to do if they
encounter federal agents.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
We're working against our own selves here. Now.

Speaker 4 (07:15):
Do I think we should be going into churches or schools. No,
I don't. I don't think we should be doing that
at all. But I remind everybody out there, you on
the left who wanted this bizarre world of open borders,

(07:35):
have caused this. You did, So we'll see what happens
in Denver, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Chicago, and
what that looks like. But allowing everybody in the world

(07:56):
to come here essentially with zero repercussions and give them goodies,
and then America says, yeah, we don't want that. Well,
it's got to change. So we'll see what that looks
like when it comes to the raids. But the other one,
birthright citizenship, That is an interesting one. Indeed, could he

(08:19):
actually with of a pen change that. Alan Dershowitz, Harvard
Law smart.

Speaker 9 (08:28):
Fellow thes seems pretty clear that it's not constitutional. I
think the idea that a person born in the United
States is automatically a citizen is foolish. I mean, you
have somebody who has no connection to the Country's mother
was here skiing and she had an early pregnancy, and
the baby was born, and three days later was sent

(08:50):
back to her country and every campus to the United
States again, can run for president.

Speaker 10 (08:55):
No, can't run for president after it looked at fifteen
years to run for president, but can be a full
and complete citizen.

Speaker 8 (09:01):
That The only exception to.

Speaker 10 (09:02):
It is the fourteenth Amendment says all persons born person
was born, but and subject to the jurisdiction.

Speaker 4 (09:10):
Thereof, subject to the jurisdiction thereof. Ooh, constitutionally, this isn't
going to play. And of course there's a you know
what about the and and those kind of things.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
It's I understand, I think most of us do.

Speaker 4 (09:33):
Why the whole birthright citizenship thing is insane. That being said,
it's in the Constitution and it is going to be
challenged immediately as it already is. But remember the Constitution.

(09:55):
The whole thought of it is our founding fathers wanted
a strength in something, and for us to change the Constitution,
we had to be in such agreement.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
It couldn't be a fad, it couldn't be a trend.

Speaker 4 (10:11):
We had to absolutely all be on board with it.

Speaker 10 (10:16):
And that's where some people say, well, if the person
left the country never had any connection, maybe that person
isn't subject to the jurisdiction.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Of the United States.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
But I think that.

Speaker 8 (10:27):
Would require legislation.

Speaker 10 (10:29):
So I think the weakest case is the President just
announcing it. You know, maybe the right thing to say
from a policy point.

Speaker 4 (10:36):
Of view, Maybe maybe the right thing to say. But
if you're going to go and change this, you're going
to need two thirds of the House and the Senate
to agree on something.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Good luck with that.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
And as far as the Constitution goes again, good luck
with that. But alas here we are people less than
forty eight hours in and rather than talking about the
fact that AI is rocking and rolling.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
And what happened yesterday, it's about hair on fire.

Speaker 4 (11:16):

Speaker 2 (11:55):
Essentially because they may put it at half a goal.

Speaker 4 (11:59):
Well there's no half a goal, so you're gonna think
he's gonna score one or he's not gonna score one.
That's one part of your lineup. Then you go over
and you say, will so and so of another team
give up over three and a half goals or under
three and a half goals? That simple, so easy to
do in playoff seasons. Here right now, it's weekend. Man,

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Show, Chad Benson.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
The list of people granted clemency by President Trump is growing.
Trump pardoning Ross Olbrich, the founder of the online marketplace
silk Road, once called eBay for drugs. Between twenty eleven
and twenty thirteen, prosecutors say silk Road facilitated one hundred
and eighty three million dollars in illegal drug sales. Olbrick
was sentenced to life in prison, but remained popular in

(13:32):
the cryptocurrency world.

Speaker 4 (13:34):
Ah, crypto Bros must be stoked today. It's all happening.
They're releasing everybody, open the doors.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
What's next? El choppo?

Speaker 4 (13:43):
So the left freaks out on all kinds of stuff,
as we know, don't react, That's what I continue to
tell everybody. But people will continue to react. Did you
know he was erasing people? I didn't know that. You mean,
like they're disappearing. Yeah, like they're disappearing. No way, just disappearing.
Get out of town. No, I'm serious, just like that.

Speaker 11 (14:07):
So the second the inaugurations done, Trump starts signing executive orders,
one of which is to try to erase the existence
of people like me, non binary humans, his whole There
are only two recognized sexes here in the United States.
He's not going to erase me. He's not going to
erase people who are like me. We have always existed
and we will continue to exist, and we are stronger

(14:28):
than that big orange. I don't want to get this
taken down, so we'll just say that we are stronger
than him.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
You're stronger, faster. But he's going to erase you now,
He's not settle down with your self importance.

Speaker 8 (14:43):
Over the next four years.

Speaker 11 (14:45):
Really pay attention to the amount of cruelty that he's
putting out there. Remind yourself of previous people in power
and the type of cruelty they exist exhibited, and where
that cruelty led us relation of groups of people. That's
what they want to do. They want to people like this.
They want to wipe other people off of the face.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Of the planet.

Speaker 11 (15:07):
It's not going to happen. In four years, I will
still be here, I will still exist, and hopefully we
get someone who is a better moral character.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
Than him, not with an attitude like that, you will.
I'm just getting settled down this whole thought process.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
Elon Musk threw up a Nazi signed Trump wants to
get rid of US three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three. At Chad Benson Show is

Speaker 4 (15:48):
Meanwhile, as everyone else freaks out, Trump.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
Back in office, people thought it wouldn't happen.

Speaker 4 (15:58):
The chances of that happening is like Florida or the
French Quarter getting snow.

Speaker 12 (16:05):
People on the Gulf Coast digging out after a winter
storm that set an all time record, beaches in Alabama
blanketed in snow, Louisiana sending out its first ever blizzard warnings,
New Orleans shattering its one day snowfall record with more
than eight inches.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
The French Quarter buried in snow.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
I think snow before, but never.

Speaker 13 (16:24):
In New Orleans.

Speaker 12 (16:25):
In Houston, police urging people to stay off the roads.
The city, which does not own a single snowplow, called
up trucks and supplies from as far as Wisconsin to
make the roads passable.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
Yeah, it is nasty out there in a lot of places.
Some it's just cold, others snow has fallen buryed. So
we joke about this stuff. But be careful out there
because I've already heard of some nasty accidents in Texas
and several other places, but across the country. And if

(16:57):
you don't have to go out, don't. It's that simple. Stay,
listen to the Chad Benson Show, relax, have a day off,
tell your boss.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Hey, for safety, I'm not coming in today. And because the.

Speaker 4 (17:09):
Chat Benson Show is on, so you're gonna want to
say that as well, we've got a little woke miss
coming up. You don't want to miss that.

Speaker 14 (17:15):
It is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
Such Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 4 (18:01):
It is a Wednesday party, people, And on this most
glorious Wednesdays, we like to do a little something where
We awaken you to what is going on in the world.
We get you ready for what is happening on this planet.
We want you to be aware, and to be aware,

(18:22):
you must be.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
Awaken. Listen to her and do what she says.

Speaker 15 (18:29):
Buckle up, everybody, It's time to talk about my pronouns.

Speaker 16 (18:32):
When babies are born, the doctor looks at them and
they make a guess about whether the baby is a
boy or a girl.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
But sometimes the doctor is wrong. She lucy is a ghost?

Speaker 2 (18:43):
Are pronoun They them say there was two of them.

Speaker 4 (18:49):
Yesterday.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
I came out of family.

Speaker 17 (18:52):
Let's go rock brocks pronouns. That sounds so cool.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
Let me introduce you to our non binarial PoCA.

Speaker 18 (18:59):
I am non binary and I U say them pronouns.

Speaker 8 (19:01):
And my students know this.

Speaker 19 (19:02):
We just came up with new words that fit us better.

Speaker 17 (19:04):
It's fine.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
What if I want to be called Sir Elton Johnson.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
It's time for Woke Wednesday. Woke Indeed, we're awakening you
to all of the things going on out there.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
Now.

Speaker 4 (19:18):
You know he like to talk about so well, all
kinds of stuff. Financial stuff. It's always important because we
all live in the economy and investing as you know,
we talked to Eurybuddy Zack Abramchi investment officer all the time,
poor capital. But the whole thing about investing is not

(19:38):
to be woke.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
Because you end up going broke, which of course becomes
a joke.

Speaker 17 (19:48):
ESG investment Have you heard about that?

Speaker 4 (19:51):
ESG investment has taken the financial and corporate world by storm,
It sure did.

Speaker 17 (19:57):
ESG is a term that's supposed to measure how ace
the company is.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
E environment, greenhouse gas emissions.

Speaker 20 (20:04):
S stands for the social side, union rights, diversity, even
abortion access. The G stands for governance, even executive pay.

Speaker 21 (20:16):
Big investment companies like Blackrock pressured companies to hire certain people.
You have to force behaviors, whether it's gender or race,
and they pushed sustainability.

Speaker 17 (20:28):
All investments are going to be looked through sustainability.

Speaker 21 (20:31):
But sustainability is this largely meaningless word that companies use
to appear nice.

Speaker 17 (20:37):
It's usually just marketing.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
That's right marketing.

Speaker 4 (20:42):
Now, for many people out there, you want to feel
good about how you invest your money.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
Okay, that sounds great, but you also want.

Speaker 4 (20:50):
To not be broke af and sustainability, Well, I've got
news for your friends.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
You keep doing this.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
Let me tell you what's not sustainable, your bank account
and your retirement.

Speaker 21 (21:02):
This fund brag that it helped meet un sustainability goals
by investing in US foods and Clorox. And former vice
president Val Gore also sells so called sustainability investments, claiming.

Speaker 22 (21:16):
The full integration of sustainability factors can actually enhance returns,
but they didn't.

Speaker 21 (21:23):
Over the past three years, his sustainable fund rose a
lot less than the stock market. His fund recently admitted
we made investment mistakes, but then they blamed the public,
saying stocks often trade at foolish prices. But don't worry,
says Gore. Eventually stock markets will see the wisdom of
his vision.

Speaker 22 (21:43):
The world is shifting toward sustainability.

Speaker 17 (21:47):
At least reporters now push back.

Speaker 23 (21:50):
People are pulling money from some of these environmental funds.
Is this the beginning of the end of sustainable investing?

Speaker 22 (21:56):
No, I don't think so at all.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
Well, I don't think so at all, because we'd like
to bankrupt the hell out of you. And I'm not
saying there's not some stuff out there that isn't good.
But if you're basing whether or not you should invest
in a fund on whether or not they believe an abortion.
That's insane unless they're a company that is trading publicly

(22:21):
that deals in abortion.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
Outside of that, I don't care.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
If I give you X. My goal is for you
to give me more than X, not less than X.
But then tell me, hey, didn't that feel good? No?

Speaker 2 (22:40):
No it didn't.

Speaker 17 (22:42):
It's not only Gore's fund that underperformed.

Speaker 21 (22:44):
Most that promote sustainable investment are doing worse than the market.

Speaker 17 (22:49):
So why did trillions flow into such funds?

Speaker 24 (22:52):
It did it because of pressures.

Speaker 21 (22:54):
Investment manager Matt Cole worked fifteen years at Kelper's, California's
government run PAS fund. These greedy companies whose main goal
is to say we outperform the next guy, why'd they
go along with this?

Speaker 24 (23:07):
Their largest clients are Blue States pensions like CalPERS and
the New York Pension, who put pressure on them to say,
you either adopt these agendas or you're going to lose
us as your largest customer.

Speaker 21 (23:19):
So CalPERS brags about mitigating climate risk, getting exon to
hire climate conscious board members. Federal officials pushed ESG on banks.

Speaker 8 (23:30):
They will invest into climate related efforts.

Speaker 17 (23:34):
But now banks and Blackrock are running from these alliances.

Speaker 18 (23:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (23:41):
And by the way, CalPERS right, so you got this
big giant fund and they want to focus on ESG
and all this stuff. It is the Union's money. End
of the day, California will make sure that that stuff's covered.
They're looking for a certain amount of return, which, by
the way, take away the woke wacky investing go look

(24:02):
at the insanity of which they push what kind of
returns they can get based on how much they actually
have to pay out. They're so underfunded and they don't
get any of the returns they need. And like I said,
there's stuff out there that I'm sure is very good
when it comes to green, sustainable, make you feel good,

(24:26):
hug a polar bear.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
But if that is, what is.

Speaker 4 (24:33):
The thing that is driving you when you're making your
investment picks, as a person who handles money for other
people a f noush eerie, the hell are you doing?

Speaker 2 (24:50):
That's insane? Insane, I say on this woke Wednesday, what.

Speaker 24 (24:54):
You're seeing today is ESG funds shuddering at record speed.
If you remember the Homer sense meme where he goes
back into the shrub, they're going back into the shrub
and they're not apologizing.

Speaker 17 (25:08):
They never do this. ESG Fan didn't just short investors,
it set back companies that America needs.

Speaker 21 (25:15):
Intel's cutting thousands of jobs even though our government gives
them billions of dollars. Companies often decline when they get
in bed with government, probably because boss is focused more
on sucking up to politicians rather than innovating. Intel's competitors
did innovate pushing.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
The limits of performance and energy.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
Yes, push the hell out of those limits, but do
it the right way. You know, we have fun on
woke Wednesday. We talk about wacky, crazy stuff. You guys
know that it's what drives us, what sets us apart.
But everybody focuses on whether or not he's a she
and vice versa, and those are things that are important,

(26:00):
you know, men playing in women's sports, et cetera, et cetera.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
This has real world.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
Implications for a lot of people, because many of you
right now may be in funds where that's the way
that they've decided to invest, and you're wondering why you're
not getting returns, or you've seen a front over the
last several years, even though maybe you've held steady or

(26:28):
gone down a little bit, maybe up a little bit.
Everybody else has outperformed you, not because you were careful,
but because they chose to do everything based on feelings.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
When they should be doing things based on money.

Speaker 21 (26:44):
Meanwhile, Intel spent three hundred million dollars on full workforce
representation of women and minorities. Its website lists endless ESG goals.
They even brag about their ESG bureaucracy. Here's their exhausting
chart of it. There's an ESG steering committee, oversight groups

(27:04):
promoting sustainable computing and green software, whatever that is. It's
a lot of time and energy spent not making the
best chip.

Speaker 25 (27:13):
Chairs of Intel are having their worst day since nineteen
seventy four.

Speaker 17 (27:16):
Intel stock is now worth a fraction of what it
was a few years ago.

Speaker 24 (27:20):
You know that the AI revolutions happen, the opportunity for
you is massive.

Speaker 17 (27:26):
Yeah, there's stockstone seventy five percent.

Speaker 24 (27:28):
Yes, you have a company like Intel that's absolutely failing.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
Failing.

Speaker 4 (27:35):
Is it failing because well, it's failing because you're taking
your eye off the ball. You became concerned with what
people thought of you in certain groups, not concerned with
the thing that mattered most which is I am here.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
To get a return for my clients. I am here.

Speaker 4 (27:57):
To take the money that they've entrusted me with and
to deliver to them results because it is what they
have worked for.

Speaker 2 (28:08):
I am not here to go. We tried really hard
and it was for a good cause, but.

Speaker 4 (28:16):
Jeez didn't work out though, so you'll have to continue
to keep working.

Speaker 21 (28:20):
At least American politicians haven't pushed ESG and increased regulations
and taxes as much as Europe's did. It's probably why
America's stock market grew like this, well, European stocks grew
much less.

Speaker 17 (28:34):
ESG funds had their worst year on record.

Speaker 21 (28:37):
Now that progressive ESG fantasies flopped, maybe more companies will
focus on basic capitalism, producing better products for less money.

Speaker 4 (28:47):
Ford Motor Company says they are ditching that deipolicies.

Speaker 24 (28:50):
It's the beginnings of an unwind that I think is
going to be critical for us to achieve success.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
And that's what it is. It's about success.

Speaker 4 (29:00):
It's about the end user, which is the customer who's
entrusted you to get them returns. They're not asking for perfection,
but they don't want you to be an ass hat
and it should be a situation where you invest the
money that they've entrusted you with, that they work hard for,

(29:25):
that they hope their future is going to be built
around you invest that money to get them a result,
not to get them a situation where you tell them
tried really hard. But hey, some of those companies before

(29:50):
they went bankrupt, they were definitely very green, and now
now they're dead. Two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four

Benson Show. Weight No not weight like weight is Oh
my gosh, you put on a few pounds. This is importante.
Are they miracle drugs or is the fact that people
are losing weight the reason that things are working out
well for them when it comes.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
To their health.

Speaker 26 (32:42):
Researchers looked into the records of more than two point
five million patients in the Department of Veterans Affairs and
found medications used for diabetes and weight loss under the
brand names ozempic, Wagovi, zep Bound, and mount Jaro reduce
the risks for one hundred and seventy five medical conditions
and disease.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
I'm going to go with I'm sure it has a
few things as far as the drugs to do with
why it's helping certain things. But I just feel as
a person that when you lose weight and you're in
a better shape, things tend to be better for you

(33:23):
all around. I don't know if I'm wrong. I just
feel like I feel like I'm at Beyanda something.

Speaker 26 (33:29):
The study found the drugs approved by the FDA to
treat obesity and diabetes also reduce the risk for pneumonia, sepsis, infections,
blood clotting, and liver cancer, to name a few, but
researchers also found the drugs carried risks, including for gas,
truintestinal side effects, kidney stones and inflammation of the kidneys,

(33:51):
and pancreas.

Speaker 4 (33:52):
Everything comes at a risk, you know, when the big
vaccine debate was going on, of course there's a risk
because you're gonna give god knows how many vaccines to
a bunch of people. If you give aspirin to a
large segment of society and just a massive swath of
folks just go and take aspirin, you will find people

(34:15):
that will have some issues.

Speaker 17 (34:17):
With aspirin.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
No way way. So you're always gonna have some risk.

Speaker 4 (34:25):
But I always tell everybody being healthy, especially when it
comes to your weight, is huge. And I'm always fascinated
by the weight loss drugs, not because of what it
does and to help people lose weight, because I think
that is amazing, but because I find it fascinating what

(34:49):
it does to the food noise, and the three or
four people I know that have been on it have
done really really well. But that's the thing they said,
I don't know what it is, man, I don't think
about food. I don't care about food. It's like it's
just quiet, which I find that. I mean, to me,
that's very fascinating. Indeed, three two three, five three eight

At Chad Benson Show. Coming up second hour, it's a

(35:38):
doozy kids. We're gonna talk a bit about Yes, a
lot of stuff that's going on with the president A
couple days in people freaking out January sixth is man,
it's it's a It angers some people.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
I get it, and for others they celebrate it. Is
there actual middle ground?

Speaker 4 (35:57):
We'll talk a little bit about that, because nobody wants
to have an actual conversation.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
They just want to choose the side We're also gonna
talk about birthright citizenship.

Speaker 4 (36:05):
We've got some more woke stuff on the way as well,
and elephants human or not what.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
Yeah, wait to hear this story. If you're missing the
show we had the podcast, it is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:18):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 4 (36:49):
For all the chaos and craziness over the first forty
eight hours of the Donald Trump Rain, he's getting stuff done.
I mean I applaud him for that, making efforts to
do certain things. I applaud him for that, undoing things
that were put in place while he was president that
were pretty damn good. We'll talk about immigration in a

(37:11):
little bit, but something that should be talked about way
more is yesterday's press conference, an announcement.

Speaker 2 (37:19):
About AI.

Speaker 4 (37:21):
We're talking about something that is going to revolutionize the world.
But because hair on fire sells better, people will ignore
that when they shouldn't.

Speaker 6 (37:34):
To announce the largest AI infrastructure project by farign history,
and it's all taking place right here in America. As
you know, there's great competition for AI and other things,
and they're coming in at the highest level. We're joined
by Oracle executive chairman, Larry Ellison, Soft Bank CEO, my

(37:56):
friend Masa Masa Yoshi's son and CEO of Open AI,
And I would say the far the leading expert based
on everything I read Sam Altman. So that's a massive
group of talent and.

Speaker 4 (38:11):
Money, massive group of talent and money. And it matters
why Because AI is the race right now. You know
the other day, you know the energy race. We need energy.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
Trust me.

Speaker 4 (38:24):
That is a huge part of this understanding the strategicy
around why we need so much energy. AI is the
arms race. Win AI, you win everything. This is revolutionary.
We're talking about changing things, being able to do things

(38:47):
that years ago was truly the moonshot. Now it's going
to be something completely different. I talked about it a
couple of weeks ago, and none of you really said
anything about what the supercomputer through AI did to solve
that math problem. Nobody talked really a lot about it

(39:09):
when they're like, well, how did it do that? Well,
it had to go into other dimensions to get parts
essentially of the equation that it couldn't figure out in
this one. Figure it out there and then bring it back.
This is the arms race. This is the most important

(39:30):
thing and you know what, it's damn sexy kids.

Speaker 6 (39:34):
Together, these world leading technology giants are announcing the formation
of Stargate. So put that name down in your books,
because I think you're going to hear a lot about
it in the future. A new American company that will
invest five hundred billion dollars at least in AI infrastructure
in the United States and move and very very quickly, moving,

(39:55):
very rapidly, creating over one hundred thousand American jobs almost immediately.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
It's incredible. I love it.

Speaker 4 (40:03):
I was talking to the nerds yesterday, my uncle and
all his team. They're like, this is you don't even understand.
I mean, Larry Ellison, chairman of Oracle, comes out and says,
this is the kind of stuff when you talk about
revolutionizing things. And I said it two years ago, three
years ago. You hear me saying AI is as important

(40:24):
as the wheel, as fire, as the combustible engine. This
is awesome and it's the future. And yes, is it
scary for some people one hundred percent. Will they eventually
take us over? Probably, But until then it's gonna be awesome.
It is gonna be incredible. They're talking about shots to

(40:47):
prevent cancer. They're talking about making sure AI is a
positioned to know when any kind of outbreak is in
the world so we can stop it before anything happens. Oh,
it's all about Yeah, it's all about stuff. It's all
about all kinds of stuff. Think about this AI when
it comes to firefighter AI, when it comes to detecting fire.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
Some of the stuff they're working on with the wildfires
to be able to predict.

Speaker 4 (41:20):
And to be able to sense and immediately get on
it in ways that No, you just couldn't even imagine.
It's those things, but it is so many other things,
real world applications and being the leader in this is
the most important thing. China is battling with us. When
we worry about China and spying, this, that and the other.

(41:43):
Those are all very relevant things. But this is the
most important thing, no doubt about it, no doubt about it.
So we'll see, I mean again doing it. It's going
to take time.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
Along with money and h one b visus.

Speaker 4 (42:06):
What did you say, Yeah, it's going to take some
of those because there may be one hundred thousand jobs
over time.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
But will we have the people ready to take those jobs?

Speaker 4 (42:19):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (42:20):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 27 (42:22):
It is one thing to secure the commitments. It is
another thing to make sure that these commitments come true.
Remember back in twenty seventeen, Trump announced that fox Con
would be building this massive factory in Wisconsin that would
create more than ten thousand jobs. Well that never ended
up happening. So we will see how all of this
turns out. But those tech billionaires who are with Donald

(42:45):
Trump on Tuesday, they are very excited about what's ahead.
But of course we've got to see if this promise
comes true.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
And that fox Con thing was a mess.

Speaker 4 (42:54):
Remember all the excitement It's gonna have kazillion jobs has
about a thousand. I think it was supposed to have
like thirteen or something like that. The people that were
part of fox Con weren't thrilled by it. Didn't think
it was going to be anything big because they knew
that there was going to be too much crap to

(43:15):
get all the stuff they needed. None of the suppliers
for the things they needed were anywhere near Wisconsin. You
had to deal with all kinds of regulations and lawsuits.
It understandable. It was exciting at first, but in reality
it was a flawed plan. The employee about a thousand people.

(43:36):
Now I will say this though, AI and Chips because
they did the Chips Act.

Speaker 2 (43:42):
That was a good thing Biden did.

Speaker 4 (43:44):
Those are about national security. They'll get done in a
much better way and quicker than something like Fox con.
So I do think this will get done, and it's
important it does. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty

(44:04):
four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show. Is your
Twitter tweet at US text the program? Meanwhile, when do
the raids begin? Tom Homan?

Speaker 23 (44:13):
Something that you said last night that your deportation operation
starts today?

Speaker 4 (44:18):
Did it?

Speaker 28 (44:19):
Yeah? Ice ices they are all there, enforcement law out
today and of course, as I've said numerous times, are
concentrating on public safety threats. That's that would be our
priority right out of the gate. So ICE officers are
back to doing their job.

Speaker 17 (44:32):
Where are the actual raids.

Speaker 28 (44:33):
I wouldn't call them raids or target enforcement operations. They
know exactly who they're looking for, they know pretty much
where they'll find them.

Speaker 4 (44:40):
Okay, good, I got no problem with that, as it
should be. Remember, going after people that should not be here,
many of them who while here have committed crimes. Many
of them already have an order to be removed. So

(45:05):
that's what we're talking about here. It doesn't mean that
there isn't going to be people swept up in stuff
and that there is going to be situations. Talked a
bit about it last hour. I don't want them going
into churches. I don't want them going into unless there's
a violent criminal in there. And if you're a pastor
and you're protecting somebody who's a violent criminal, I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (45:22):
That's on you. They shouldn't be going into schools.

Speaker 4 (45:26):
This shouldn't be hard, it should be common sense. But
alas we live in America, common sense isn't as common
as we think.

Speaker 28 (45:33):
These are well planned operations, they're well investigated, so they
a lot back up information when they go out there.
The whole team goes out for officer safety concerns, so
this happens for all the nation. I mean, I'm not
going to tell you specific locations out of officer safety concerns,
but ICE is back doing their job effective today. They
haven't been able to do it four years.

Speaker 2 (45:52):
But it's gonna upset some people.

Speaker 4 (45:54):
Yesterday, this is a bishop, a woke bishop, because they
had a prayer, breakfast, then they went over to hear
a sermon and with the whole birthright citizenship.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
And the oh my god, he's going to do this,
and he hates people that are brown, who wants to
throw everybody out of the country. This is the sermon
that became a lecture.

Speaker 15 (46:13):
Let me make one final plea, mister President. Millions have
put their trust in you, and as you told the
nation yesterday, you have felt the providential hand of a
loving God. I ask you to have mercy upon the
people in our country. And we're scared now, the gay, lesbian,
and transgender children in Democratic, Republican and independent families, some

(46:36):
who fear for their lives.

Speaker 4 (46:38):
Okay, okay, so you're lecturing the president. Continue continue, miss
I think is bood be you dd Bud Bud, Marianna Bud.

Speaker 15 (46:50):
And the people, the people who pick our crops and
clean our office buildings, who labor in poultry farms and
meat packing plants, who wash the dishes after we eat
in restaurants, and work the night shifts in hospitals. They
may not be citizens or have the proper documentation, but
the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals. They pay taxes.
I ask you to have mercy, mister President, on those

(47:12):
in our communities. Whose children fear that their parents will
be taken away. Our God teaches us that we are
to be merciful to the stranger.

Speaker 4 (47:21):
Nobody's talking about throwing those people out. Nobody's talking about that.
The first thing that we're going to do is focus
on the criminal.

Speaker 2 (47:31):
Focus on the.

Speaker 4 (47:32):
People that have come here without even coming through the port.
Focus on the potential terrorist who came here not going
through the port. See where we're going with this one,
And focus on the people that have orders to be removed.
They went through the process and the process didn't come
out the way they wanted it. If they're going to

(47:52):
be allowed to ignore the process, then why do we
even have any process or border three two, three, five,

parts of the country, from Texas and beyond.

Speaker 16 (50:00):
In South Texas, multiple people killed after a crash on
an icy bridge, according to Zabala County officials. In Houston,
freeways and roads closing down after crashes, Beaches in Alabama

all their roads and bridges are considered impassable due to
the weather. Airports from Florida to Texas suspending operations. More

(50:25):
than two thousand flights canceled.

Speaker 2 (50:27):
Yeah, at least the next couple of days going to
be ugly out there.

Speaker 1 (50:31):
Alexno isla. You can make snow ages.

Speaker 14 (50:34):
I was actually hoping my car went turn on this morning.

Speaker 2 (50:37):
I didn't have to call my husband back home to
turn it on for me.

Speaker 18 (50:39):
Go home, miss a day. It's not worth it because
you know, if you're out and then you get sick,
you're gonna have to miss a day anyway, so you
might as well be home today.

Speaker 4 (50:48):
A lot of them I've work, and a lot of
them are students, so they have no choice much into
the out here.

Speaker 18 (50:52):
I had exams, I had no choice.

Speaker 12 (50:53):
I had to walk.

Speaker 18 (50:54):
It was cold, I have insulated jeans and gloves. Eard
it's freezing. It's freezing cold, a bunch of layers.

Speaker 29 (51:03):
I have some handwarmers, drinking a lot of coffee, a
lot of tea, trying to stay indoors as much as possible.
I have a ski face mask on to cover my
face and my neck.

Speaker 4 (51:17):
Smart What about your car, Chad, You got any tips
for people in their car? Because some people aren't used
to the cold and could there be issues with their.

Speaker 30 (51:26):
Cars inside Wells Automotive service mechanics hard at work treating
cars for weather related issues.

Speaker 29 (51:34):
Tires are the biggest call that we get.

Speaker 30 (51:37):
The owner of Franka Gusky says, the low tire pressure
warning light will oftentimes turn on during cold snaps like these.

Speaker 8 (51:44):
Usually you just get away with just refilling them.

Speaker 17 (51:46):
If you have one tire that's old.

Speaker 2 (51:47):
In any other there is definitely a problem.

Speaker 6 (51:49):
Either the seals bad or there's a puncture that or.

Speaker 30 (51:52):
The car won't start because the battery has been zapped
by the extreme weather.

Speaker 4 (51:57):
And that has been our issue. We went from Arizona
extreme weather to out here, which is not extreme weather,
but comparatively to where we were from. Yeah, our car
didn't do well. We had to get a new battery
three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty
three at Chad Benson Show. To your Twitter and your
instat right here in the Chad Benson Show, speaking of

(52:23):
staying endurers inside.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
You might want a Netflix and chill. It's going to
cost you a little more.

Speaker 26 (52:30):
Netflix announcing another round of price hikes. The ad supported
tier will now cost seven ninety nine a month, up
from six ninety nine. The standard AD free tier will
go from fifteen forty nine to seventeen ninety nine per month,
and the cost of the Premium tier is increasing by
two dollars to twenty four ninety nine. The price hike
comes even though Netflix just saw its biggest ever quarterly

(52:53):
jump in subscribers, fresh off the Mike Tyson Jake Paul
boxing match in November, which drew one hundred and eight
million viewers.

Speaker 4 (53:01):
Yeah, it is, Uh, it's interesting because when you start
adding up your subscriptions, how many of you out there
have no idea how many subscriptions you have, because it's
four ninety nine, it's five ninety nine, this is now
seven ninety nine with the commercials, and then it's more
with no commercials, and then we found.

Speaker 2 (53:19):
Out the other tier is like first class. I don't know.
If they serve you something earlier, you get to see
something earlier four K, eight K, twelve K.

Speaker 4 (53:28):
But the subscription seemed like a good idea until you
had four hundred dollars in subscriptions three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson
Show is your Twitter, twitt at us text the program.
So much stuff still to get through, some woke fun stuff,

Speaker 31 (54:10):
Such Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show, it is

(54:35):
Humpday aka Wednesday, And as we all know, when Wednesdays
roll around, I like to awaken you.

Speaker 2 (54:44):
To all the things that trouble liberals. Oh baby, you
know what I'm talking about today?

Speaker 17 (54:50):
What the woke want?

Speaker 8 (54:51):
The woke?

Speaker 13 (54:52):
Every time they refer to me, it's always lady girl,
it's nonest stop.

Speaker 8 (55:00):
We are contributing to our fat phobic society.

Speaker 32 (55:04):
Someone fat like me, black like me, beautiful like me,
no offense a shit about you.

Speaker 14 (55:13):
So that's why intentional weight loss is fat nomasout.

Speaker 17 (55:16):
Your mouth, who's fat?

Speaker 2 (55:20):
It's time for woke Wednesday. Where should we start?

Speaker 4 (55:24):
How about with this nutritional overachiever who's upset about skinny.

Speaker 32 (55:30):
Using the word skinny to market products that have fewer
calories or are healthier.

Speaker 8 (55:36):
It's fat phobic skinny pop, skinny cow with.

Speaker 32 (55:39):
The tape measure tied around the waist.

Speaker 1 (55:41):
And you could try to change the logo, but.

Speaker 32 (55:43):
It's still fat phobic, skinny girl. To make something have
fewer calories, less sugar, you say, make it skinny, smoothie king, egregious,
Just egregious, egregious?

Speaker 2 (55:55):
Say it you egregious? I love skinny cow. You remether
is great? What should they call it?

Speaker 4 (56:03):
Fat ass pig, big nasty, disgusting fat person food?

Speaker 2 (56:10):
What is that that make you feel better?

Speaker 23 (56:13):
No?

Speaker 4 (56:15):
No, but you've lost your mind because you live in
a world where you want your gluttony to be championed,
not to be called out, to be affirmed, and not
to be challenged. That's what you want.

Speaker 32 (56:32):
I hope you can now see how people use fat
phobia as a marketing tool.

Speaker 8 (56:36):
It's not about those options having less calories and less sugar.

Speaker 32 (56:39):
It's the way they're marketing using the word skinny to
market products that have fewer calories.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
It's fat phobic. No, it's not.

Speaker 4 (56:47):
It's marketing the way marketing is. Diet coke is fat phobic.
Can we stop with the phobia thing please. Nobody's afraid
of fat people. I mean may gross them out, but
they're not.

Speaker 2 (57:06):
Afraid of them. Oh that's a very nice shit. I'm
just putting it out there. It's so insane, you know,
Like I said, we do.

Speaker 4 (57:18):
Real fun, woke, wacky stuff because it's now permeating in
and throughout society.

Speaker 2 (57:26):
And we did it last hour. We're gonna talk about
again next hour as well. So have you miss any show?

Speaker 4 (57:30):
Grabbed the podcast if you don't get that third hour,
but about the insanity of woke investing and how it's
absolutely crushing investors. But we don't get there in that
situation without crazy. Case in point this this happened last week.
I was gonna do it, but something happened on Monday,
some sort of inauguration of somebody. But this is a

(57:52):
city council person who goes by many different pronouns and
upset that those pronouns arn't respected. So you know, better
take a few months off or something.

Speaker 33 (58:04):
Worcester City councilor at large to new En taking a
month long mental health break, accusing the mayor and council
of a toxic culture. New En uses the pronouns they
them and says it's not safe to show up to
meetings in person.

Speaker 34 (58:17):
I really really wished I felt safe enough to show
up on the council floor.

Speaker 18 (58:23):
But I don't.

Speaker 33 (58:23):
Last night, when talking about remote participation, Nuwen accused the
mayor and another councilor, Kathleen Toomey, of using the wrong pronouns.
Nuwen also says Counselor Candy Marrow Carlson repeatedly called them it.

Speaker 34 (58:35):
I have faced transphobia with being this gender, and recently
learned that I have been dehumanized to a point where
I'm being referred to as it by my colleagues on
this council.

Speaker 2 (58:47):
Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (58:48):
Last night there was a big meeting, and of course
everybody showed up with all kinds of flags, lots of flags,
different colored flags, the trans flag, the flag, the trans flag,
trans flag flag, transflag, lots of flags. People yell chanted
down numerous times, numerous chantings.

Speaker 2 (59:11):
It's not over. Continue. I know it's tough, just takes
time off for your mental health.

Speaker 33 (59:16):
Counselor to me says, early on when the councilor was elected,
I did make an honest error in addressing the councilor,
and may have done so a few times, for which
I apologized. There has never been any intentional or consistent misgendering.
I have been mindful to address the counselor respectfully in
the manner in which they identify. Over the past three.

Speaker 35 (59:33):
Years, I have spoken with city staff who've confirmed that
councilor New Yen was referred to as an it by
a counselor.

Speaker 33 (59:48):
Counselor Christian King troubled by what he's heard.

Speaker 35 (59:51):
I condemned to savow any sort of political hostility based
on someone's being based.

Speaker 2 (59:58):
On someone's being well, sir, I condemn.

Speaker 4 (01:00:06):
Everybody here trying to gaslight me and the rest of
the world that you can flip flop your gender whenever
you choose decide to say the word they as a singular,
which I mean, come on, it's crazy, right, Like, this
is how we get well investing. This is how these

(01:00:26):
are on city council. This is how we get insane laws.

Speaker 2 (01:00:31):
This is how the.

Speaker 4 (01:00:32):
City that you're in goes, wait a minute here, now, wait,
I can't do what. Oh yeah, they decided that's wrong.

Speaker 33 (01:00:39):
Now, councilor Merril Carlson telling us. While I do not
recall making the statements in question, I acknowledge that it
was a challenging and emotional week where difficult conversations took place.
These claims, however, misrepresent my character, my record, and the
values I have consistently upheld. We did reach out to
the mayor, and we also reached out to counsel our

(01:00:59):
new end, but did not hear back from either. The
city manager's office confirms and investigation is underway.

Speaker 4 (01:01:05):
Because of course strongly worded letter. Maybe a recalls in order.
Maybe we just get rid of that part, throw them away,
get them out of here. We recognize the insanity of this, right,
of course we do. It is woke Wednesday, as we
continue into the world of insanity. This to me child abuse.

Speaker 25 (01:01:29):
When our child, Zoomer, was born in twenty sixteen, my
partner Brent, and I decided to raise them without assigning
a gender. We didn't disclose their reproductive anatomy to people
who didn't need to know. We used the gender neutral
pronouns they them there until Zoomer could tell us what
pronouns fit best, and we taught Zoomer about bodies, gender identity,
and expression in an expansive and inclusive way. We wanted

(01:01:52):
to hold space for the possibility that Zoomer could be intersex, transgender,
or non binary, and we were committed to protecting them
from experiencing sexism in early childhood.

Speaker 4 (01:02:02):
Sexism and early childhood. Our kid maybe this, No, you're
gonna push your kid into that. That's what you get
for naming your kid Zoomer. This is insane. This is
this is effing insane. It's not just kind of insane.
I'm gonna do it again, it is freaking insane. Continue

(01:02:26):
person who's so woke and inclusive.

Speaker 1 (01:02:29):
Zoomer wore all.

Speaker 25 (01:02:30):
The clothes, played with all the toys, and got to
experience a childhood free of gender stereotypes. Around Zoomer's fourth birthday,
he told us that he's a boy and that he
loves he him pronouncing Zoomer knows who he is and
understands that gender is not binary and that his body
doesn't define his destiny. We call this gender creative parenting,
and there's resources and an amazing community waiting for you.

Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
If you want to learn more?

Speaker 36 (01:02:54):
Would you like to learn more? Would you like to
learn how to how to kid? Would you like to
learn that? That's gonna be nice, right, that's fantastic. I
want to put your kid in therapy. Okay, then that'll
be good.

Speaker 4 (01:03:05):
That child is gonna be so confused. And what do
you bet he grows up, comes home one day, join
some sort of neo Nazi group just to piss mom
and dad off. I'll show you, guys, sons of bitches

(01:03:28):
putting me in dresses. I got news for you.

Speaker 2 (01:03:31):
Now, why are you wearing jack boots? The Zuomer three

Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
Fronting with scissors. It sounds great compare.

Speaker 2 (01:05:01):
To this same name and likeness. What is it? It's interesting.
Name and likeness is.

Speaker 4 (01:05:12):
Something that is come into college sports over the last
few years and changed everything. It really has, and it
is incredible what it has done for some athletes. So
now college athletes can earn a living where before they couldn't.
And it was ridiculous. Right, If you went to school

(01:05:33):
on a scholarship for engineering, not only could you get
a job, you could make money off stuff you were
doing in school through your engineering. If you set up
a YouTube channel, you could make money off of it.
So you've got a scholarship to go to a school.

(01:05:54):
You can make money off of your YouTube. You could work,
You could do all of these things. It was fine
if you're a college athlete.

Speaker 2 (01:06:00):
Could do none of it.

Speaker 4 (01:06:01):
If you were a college athlete, and let's just say
you had a YouTube channel. Now you're a quarterback or alignment,
or better yet, a reserve alignment for a mid level school,
and you've got a YouTube channel talking about flat earth juggling,

(01:06:25):
whatever it is, and you made any money on that,
you would either have to shut your YouTube or quit
the program.

Speaker 2 (01:06:33):
That's how stupid.

Speaker 18 (01:06:34):
That was.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
Well, name and likeness came in and changed everything. And
I saw this the other day, and I was fascinated
by it and the effects that this is having on
so many things in college sports, including.

Speaker 4 (01:06:54):
Programs that aren't normally successful who become super successful even
for a moment, And lo and behold, your success has
caused your players.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
Now to go eh, thanks for this, I'm gonna leave.
Come on, Come on, Larry, Atlanta, Atlanta.

Speaker 37 (01:07:17):
This is coach Greg Campy in his Element Triple Team
Fadeaway Jumper. His Oakland University Golden Grizzly shocked the basketball
world last year out when the thirteen point underdogs toppled
perennial powerhouse Kentucky in the NCAA Tournament.

Speaker 19 (01:07:34):
There's nobody in the country that doesn't know what Oakland
basketball is.

Speaker 2 (01:07:40):
Nobody because they shocked everybody last year. People are excited.
It's awesome. This guy's been doing this a long time, right,
So what happened?

Speaker 10 (01:07:49):
Greg Campy and the head coach at ugbor the university
in his first season.

Speaker 37 (01:07:52):
The biggest win in is forty one years at Oakland.
But now Campy says his biggest challenge comes off the court.

Speaker 19 (01:08:00):
I spend my summers trying to raise money so I
can buy players. Can you imagine college coaches are now
saying that because it's true.

Speaker 37 (01:08:08):
Forget the old definition of amateur athlete. College athletes can
now make millions before ever going pro thanks to a
set of NCAA rules called the NIL, which stands for Name,
Image and Likeness. Since twenty twenty one. Any athlete, especially
big stars like Shador Sanders and Caitlin Clark, can profit
from commercial endorsements, jersey sales, even autograph sessions. What's really

(01:08:33):
changing the game, though, is another part of the program
that's morphed into a monster.

Speaker 2 (01:08:37):
Let them shoot that shot.

Speaker 37 (01:08:38):
Athletes getting paid just to play.

Speaker 2 (01:08:42):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (01:08:45):
It used to be how good your program was, how
good your academics work, how good your recruiting was, like
those were important. The most important person now running these
programs are the general managers, really the fundraisers who go

(01:09:06):
out and raise funds, because that's what you have to
do now to get players.

Speaker 37 (01:09:14):
When you recruit a player, now, how early in the
conversation does that player start asking about money.

Speaker 19 (01:09:21):
It's initial. It's right at the start, right off the back,
right off the start.

Speaker 37 (01:09:26):
Class schools are tapping deep pocketed elums and donors to
pay millions to high level athletes, launching bidding wars for
recruits and raids by schools on each other's rosters, Go Go.
Three of Campy's best players transferred to programs with more money.
Shortly after last year's tournament success, some.

Speaker 19 (01:09:44):
Power five comes in and offers him five hundred thousand dollars.
I can't offer him that. So how do I tell
a kid don't go take five hundred thousand You can't.

Speaker 4 (01:09:55):
That's life changing money. You may never go pro, you
may never have a shot to go pro. Nobody's gonna
give you five hundred thousand dollars. That changes your entire world.
So how big is this nil money? It is very big.

Speaker 37 (01:10:09):
In twenty twenty four and estimated one point six seven
billion dollars was spent on student athletes, and most of
it on men's sports. More than a billion dollars estimated
on college football and about three hundred and ninety million
dollars for college basketball.

Speaker 4 (01:10:25):
Yeah, and before everybody freaks out about that, when you
go and look at who makes the most money, there
are several girls who make a ton, Olivia Dunn being
one of them.

Speaker 2 (01:10:37):
Is it because she's a gymnast? A little bit? Is
it because she's hot? A lot of bit?

Speaker 37 (01:10:43):
So much money is leaping toward the two big men's sports.
Sports that don't earn a profit are in danger of shrinking.

Speaker 4 (01:10:50):
I didn't get into track and field for the money.

Speaker 37 (01:10:52):
Jaden O'Brien is a two time national champion at Notre Dame.
She's grateful for the endorsement money, but it's about a
third of what the average one fotball player makes.

Speaker 18 (01:11:01):
I love the sport and I'm good at it, and
if I make a little money on the side, that's great.

Speaker 19 (01:11:04):
I'm not the old man yelling at the cloud. Okay,
I'm not that old. I want to be part of
the solution camp.

Speaker 37 (01:11:10):
He now plays teams that can spend millions more than
Oakland and Warri's. College sports maybe headed toward an era
of haves and have nots.

Speaker 19 (01:11:18):
I think that panic right now is that you're going
to see the same sixty eight teams in the NCAA
Tournament every year. You're going to see the same twelve
teams in college football playoff every year. And I think
the true fans that's a panic.

Speaker 37 (01:11:32):
A flood of money that could steal the slipper from Cinderella.

Speaker 4 (01:11:36):
Who won the national championship this week in college football
Ohio State, twenty million dollars was their budget for players,
so soak that up for a second. And high school
kids are now getting name in likeness contracts as well.
Times there a change in folks three two three, five, three, eight,

(01:11:58):
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show. It's
your Twitter, tweet ats text the program right here on
The Chad Benson Show, coming up third hour.

Speaker 2 (01:12:10):
He got a little watch trending.

Speaker 4 (01:12:12):
We're going to start it off actually with some woke
stuff because I think it's important that people understand that
while we talk a lot about crazy woke stuff, most
of it's ridiculous. Most of it is people who are
just well, they're not well, but there is a lot
that has seeped into society, and some of it, by

(01:12:32):
the way, could be affecting you and your retirement. We're
going to talk about that more on the birthright, citizenship,
so much stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:12:40):
Kids. Just one of those days where we're go, go, go,
go go, and we go.

Speaker 18 (01:12:45):
Go go for you.

Speaker 2 (01:12:46):
But if you happen to be go go, go going
and you're miss any of the show, grab the podcast.
It is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:12:52):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:13:22):
It is Wednesday. So you know what that means.

Speaker 4 (01:13:25):
Oh yeah, baby, we're gonna get woke.

Speaker 25 (01:13:29):
The support group is for people who are so woke
they're finding it impossible to have any fun at all.

Speaker 4 (01:13:37):
It's dead.

Speaker 2 (01:13:37):
Trying to the week where we break it down for
you and get you woke.

Speaker 8 (01:13:41):
It's all right, I'll go that way too, It's all right.

Speaker 2 (01:13:45):
Let it out, like, can we actually agree that women
get pregnant and not men?

Speaker 19 (01:13:50):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:13:50):
Dare you white women?

Speaker 17 (01:13:52):
Raise the white boys.

Speaker 26 (01:13:54):
Who grew up to be little misogynistic, patriarchal toilets.

Speaker 17 (01:14:00):
I am kamela hair my plnouns.

Speaker 15 (01:14:02):
Are see a time where a woman's sitting at the
table wearing baby.

Speaker 17 (01:14:10):
It's time for woke Wednesday.

Speaker 4 (01:14:12):
Woke Indeed, Now, a lot of the stuff we talk
about is just insane.

Speaker 2 (01:14:19):
And we'd get that right.

Speaker 4 (01:14:20):
My dame's Sally, and I want to have a baby
as much as you want to Sally, and your real
name was Sam. That's not going to happen because you're delusional.
But there is stuff out there that has real world implications,
and some of that is in the insanity that has

(01:14:41):
happened over the last several years when it comes to
investing and being an investor that cares and being an
investor that only chooses things based on well insanity for
the most part esg investment.

Speaker 17 (01:14:59):
If you heard what about that.

Speaker 4 (01:15:01):
ESG investment has taken the financial and corporate world by storm.

Speaker 17 (01:15:06):
It sure did. ESG is a term that's supposed to
measure how nice a company is.

Speaker 20 (01:15:11):
E environment, greenhouse gas emissions, S stands for the social side,
union rights, diversity, even abortion access. The G stands for governance,
even executive pay.

Speaker 21 (01:15:26):
Big investment companies like Blackrock pressured companies stuff hire certain people.

Speaker 17 (01:15:32):
You have to force behaviors, whether it's gender or race.
And they pushed sustainability. All investments are going to be
looked through sustainability.

Speaker 21 (01:15:42):
But sustainability is this largely meaningless word that companies use
to appear nice.

Speaker 4 (01:15:49):
It's usually just marketing, yes, and sustainability sounds wonderful, But
when you're losing your ass in the market it if
it's just your money, knock yourself out. If you're handling
other people's money, you have a fiduciary responsibility. Somebody has

(01:16:10):
entrusted you to invest for them. They're hard earned money,
so one day they can retire. But you keep doing
what you're doing right now with this insanity of ESG,
and guess what you find out, Hey, this wasn't sustainable

(01:16:31):
and you have to work forever.

Speaker 21 (01:16:33):
This fund brag that had helped meet you and sustainability
goals by investing in US foods and chlorocs. And former
Vice President Val Gore also sells so called sustainability investments, claiming.

Speaker 22 (01:16:47):
The full integration of sustainability factors can actually enhance returns.

Speaker 24 (01:16:53):
But they didn't.

Speaker 21 (01:16:55):
Over the past three years, his sustainable fund rows a
lot less than the doock market. His fund recently admitted
we made investment mistakes, but then they blame the public,
saying stocks often trade at foolish prices. But don't worry,
says Gore. Eventually stock markets will see the wisdom of
his vision.

Speaker 22 (01:17:14):
The world is shifting toward sustainability.

Speaker 17 (01:17:19):
At least reporters now pushback.

Speaker 23 (01:17:21):
People are pulling money from some of these environmental funds.
Is this the beginning of the end of sustainable investing?

Speaker 22 (01:17:28):
No, I don't think so at all.

Speaker 2 (01:17:30):
Well, no, I don't think so at all.

Speaker 4 (01:17:31):
By the way, if you want to know something, Al Gore,
vice President of the United States, didn't make a ton
of money in politics, not that you should.

Speaker 2 (01:17:41):
Current net worth three hundred million dollars. Is that sustainable?

Speaker 4 (01:17:48):
Are you putting stuff into these sustainability things or are
you just making money off of them. I'm not saying
there's not stuff out there that isn't worth investing in,
but as a person who would be handling people's money,
a fund manager who's entrusted people's retirements and their investments

(01:18:15):
to invest for them by pushing this insanity and putting
money into things that you know, while it may make
you feel good and it gets you a check, oh
check marks the box. While that may happen in some circles,

(01:18:37):
the only circle that matters is your customer, your client,
And while you're doing something you think is great or
it's virtuous, if they're losing money and they have to
postpone their retirement, that's not good.

Speaker 2 (01:18:52):
That's not what you're there for. You're there to get
them a return.

Speaker 21 (01:18:58):
It's not only gores funded on performed. Most that promote
sustainable investment are doing worse than the market. So why
did trillions flow into such funds?

Speaker 24 (01:19:09):
They did it because of pressures.

Speaker 21 (01:19:10):
Investment manager Matt Cole worked fifteen years at Kelper's, California's
government run pension fund. These greedy companies whose main goal
is to say we outperform the next guy, why did
they go along with this.

Speaker 24 (01:19:24):
Their largest clients are Blue States pensions like CalPERS and
the New York Pension, who put pressure on them to say,
you either adopt these agendas or you're going to lose
us as your largest customer.

Speaker 21 (01:19:36):
So Calper's brags about mitigating climate risk, getting Exon to
hire climate conscious board members. Federal officials pushed ESG on banks.

Speaker 4 (01:19:47):
They will invest into climate related efforts.

Speaker 21 (01:19:52):
But now banks and Blackrock are running from these alliances,
as they should be.

Speaker 4 (01:19:58):
And it's not again sit there and go, I understand
what you're trying to do, and maybe there's one or
two things that you think this has potential to be amazing.
But if remember your job is to handle people's money
and to get them return, because that's your job. They've

(01:20:20):
entrusted you with money they've worked their ass off for.
And it's not about making you feel good. It's about
turning a profit if you will, getting a return for
your investors, not about making you feel good. This is
the insanity that is going on, and luckily the getting

(01:20:41):
in in the show.

Speaker 24 (01:20:42):
Its what you're seeing today is ESG Fund's shuddering that
record speed. If you remember the Homer Simpson meme where
he goes back into the shrub. They're going back into
the shrub, and they're not apologizing.

Speaker 21 (01:20:56):
They never do this, esg Fan, didn't you short investors?
It set back companies that America needs. Intel's cutting thousands
of jobs even though our government gives them billions of dollars.
Companies often decline when they get in bed with government,
probably because Boss has focused more on sucking up to

(01:21:17):
politicians rather than innovating. Intel's competitors did innovate, pushing the.

Speaker 1 (01:21:23):
Limits of performance and energy.

Speaker 2 (01:21:27):
Innovation. What do we say here? The Chad Benson show,
Adapt or die? That's what you have to do? And
this woke stuff, you know, the old saying, go woke,
go broke. That's real. That's so damn real.

Speaker 4 (01:21:46):
I would lose my effront if our buddy, Zach Abram Chi,
investment officer Bold Capital, came to us and said, we're
down big time this year, but don't worry. We invested
in green stuff. It's gonna be great for the environment. Well,
the environment isn't my retirement. Well that's it, Chad sole problem.

(01:22:11):
You're not gonna have a retirement or anybody if we
don't invest in this stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:22:18):
No, no, no, it's not the way that works. You
do your thing.

Speaker 4 (01:22:22):
And investors, fund managers, money managers. They should do their thing,
and their thing is doing the right thing. Buy their clients,
their customers. Got to innovate or you'll die. You have

(01:22:44):
to look and say what's best for the customer and
the client. I'm not talking about cheating and doing any
of these things. I'm talking about what's best for you
and I when we take that step to actually go
out and invest, hand somebody money that we worked hard

(01:23:08):
for and say help us grow, and they say great,
all the stuff that has the potential of growing.

Speaker 2 (01:23:15):
Though they're mean, greedy, evil people. So we're going to
put the money over here. How's that doing? It's not
doing well. But won't this feel good? No, it's not
what it's about.

Speaker 4 (01:23:26):
I don't need to know the company's politics, and I
don't care to do they have a product that's good.
Will they get me a return on my investment? That
is the only thing I need to know.

Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
Period. Case clothes. End of story, Go Oak, go broke.

Speaker 4 (01:23:48):
And it's funny that we talk about this when you've
got AI rocking and rolling and you see what's going
on there and the big investment one hundred billion dollars
to start five hundred billion.

Speaker 2 (01:24:04):
Over the next several years. It is huge.

Speaker 4 (01:24:09):
That's a return on your investment. I know AI is
the future. I know where AI is going. It's going
to Texas, by the way, which is awesome, data centers, electricity.

Speaker 2 (01:24:19):
My god, Texas is boom and baby, it's a Bowman place. Baby.

Speaker 4 (01:24:24):
But that's an example of like, Okay, what am I
going to invest in green new energy that is touchy
feely that has a massive output of cash with very
little coming back in or something where yeah, we're going
to invest a lot, but the opportunity for return is

(01:24:46):
kind of unlimited.

I was a mod, had my little vespa zipping around

My head on over to Google Stargate. Number one trending thing,

(01:28:49):
well right here on the Chad Benson Show. That Project
Stargate is massive. Now let's see if it actually comes
to fruition. So if you don't know what it is,
it is five hundred billion dollars that will be invested

(01:29:12):
into AI infrastructure. It is awesome. It's all from the
private sector. And this is, as Larry Ellison put it, revolutionary.
We're talking about the way that we approach things like
the pandemic before the pandemic, cancer, I mean, you name it.

(01:29:36):
It's going to change healthcare everything. It's incredible. So the
initial investment for the project, I mean about one hundred billion.
They will expand it to five hundred billion over the
next four years. The first data center will be in
TAAs That's Texas for those of you not keeping score.
But this is kind of something that is truly incredible

(01:30:00):
and puts us so far ahead of everybody and everything
when it comes to AI. That's how big this is.

Speaker 2 (01:30:10):
Hopefully all of it comes to fruition.

Speaker 4 (01:30:12):
Kids, three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty
three At Chad Benson Show your Twitter, you can tweet
out as you can text the program. A lot of
stuff still to get you on this Wednesday, Yes, woke
stuff as well.

Speaker 31 (01:30:22):
It is the Chad Benson Show, Such Chad Benson Show,

(01:31:06):
the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:31:09):
Man. It's only been a couple of days Donald Trump
in office.

Speaker 4 (01:31:16):
The insanity of all the stuff that has taken place
continues to at times boggle the mind.

Speaker 2 (01:31:22):
Kids.

Speaker 4 (01:31:24):
Nothing makes me laugh more than the other day the
you know, the Hyle Hitler that supposedly Elon gave and
everybody's like, ah, that's a Hitler thing, and You're like,
it's not.

Speaker 2 (01:31:34):
Do you really, like, do you believe that? Is that
something you really believe? Or you just trying to gin
up what audience you have left going, No, eh, it's
absolutely Hitler.

Speaker 8 (01:31:44):
It is.

Speaker 4 (01:31:46):
It's amazing, so disingenuous. Be honest with us, right, that's it.
Like these people here, they're totally honest.

Speaker 40 (01:31:53):
If you are ashamed to be an American today, you
should like follow, comment, repost, do all the things to
show Donald Trump just how many of us are ashamed
to be an American today? How many of us think
that we are the laughing stock of the god developed world.
I heard somebody say that we're a third world nation

(01:32:13):
with the Gucci belt, and the Gucci belt was made
in China.

Speaker 2 (01:32:17):
Ah, look at you. You're funny. At least you're honest, right,
like we want that. No, no Elon did do the
Heil Hitler? Really did he did?

Speaker 18 (01:32:24):
He?

Speaker 2 (01:32:25):
Is that what he did?

Speaker 4 (01:32:26):
Or did he put his hand over his heart throw
his hand up in the airs? Oh my god, No, no, no, no, no,
that was he was saying, Heyle Hitler.

Speaker 2 (01:32:33):
No he wasn't.

Speaker 4 (01:32:34):
He wasn't.

Speaker 2 (01:32:36):
He wasn't.

Speaker 4 (01:32:37):
You want it to be so because you're disingenuous and
you're ginning up what audience you have left.

Speaker 2 (01:32:42):
The reality is that's not true. He didn't do that.
Be honest, they.

Speaker 8 (01:32:50):
Are I hate Donald Trump.

Speaker 39 (01:32:52):
I really hate Donald Trump, and I hate all the
MAGA people, and I hate everybody that voted for him.

Speaker 8 (01:32:57):
And I look, I try to do the spiritual stuff
you got, I really do. This is how I feel.
I meditated today.

Speaker 39 (01:33:03):
I prayed. I pray for Donald Trump. I pray that
his mind transforms. I don't know how the hell I'm
gonna do the next four years. I'm trying meditation, and
I'm sober too, like I don't do. I'm sober like
Edible's alcohol. Nope, nope.

Speaker 8 (01:33:20):
I have to go through this sober. So that's gonna
be fun. Oh my god. And they're taking away TikTok
from us.

Speaker 4 (01:33:27):
And the funny thing is you thought that and then
Trump saved TikTok. Oh be damn he sure did, didn't
he he did?

Speaker 18 (01:33:36):
He did?

Speaker 2 (01:33:38):
He saved TikTok. How about apples? That os apples?

Speaker 4 (01:33:43):
Well, I hate him less now, but I still hate him.
But your honesty is refreshing. Your honesty is refreshing for
other people. They can't be honest because it doesn't pay well.

Speaker 13 (01:33:56):
This is the United States of America. And I don't
care what Elon Musk is doing behind a presidential seal
in this country, we hate Nazis kind of like a
foundational defining thing too. Probably the most foundational defining things

(01:34:17):
about American history is that we beat the Confederates and
we beat the.

Speaker 2 (01:34:22):
Nazis at the same time.

Speaker 13 (01:34:23):
And I don't know what side people may be on today,
but I still am not rocking with anyone sympathetic to Nazis.
And I will do that until I am six feet
in the ground. Like kind of foundational to me as
a human being. And so if you're cool and want

(01:34:48):
to defend the sighails and the Nazi salutes all the
all the you know, whatever you want to do, that's
on you.

Speaker 8 (01:34:57):
I'm on the opposite side of that.

Speaker 17 (01:34:59):
I'm not the Nazis, how about that?

Speaker 13 (01:35:01):
I mean, but it's very important for us to assert
these things.

Speaker 2 (01:35:09):
AOC right there, she's not with the Nazis.

Speaker 4 (01:35:12):
Now, she will go to a college that has people
doing Nazi salutes, but they're wearing cafees.

Speaker 2 (01:35:18):
So we're gonna give a pass.

Speaker 4 (01:35:21):
Because as long as you're killing the Jews from the
perspective of a terrorist in Palestine, you're good to go.

Speaker 2 (01:35:32):
You know, he wasn't doing a Nazi salute. Come on.

Speaker 4 (01:35:34):
The ADL, the entire Defamation League came out and goes,
he didn't do it, get over it. I'm paraphrasing that
they don't know what to do. They're trying to find
their you know, telling my friend that they're trying to
find their sea legs. Because Trump's come in. It's been
a whirlwind. They're like, all right, so tell me again,

(01:35:56):
what's going on? So okay, So Trump came in and
he did stuff, Oh, we're not used to that. Yeah,
and then he said things that made us feel like,
oh oh, it made us feel uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 (01:36:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:36:06):
And then a lot of people out there, even people
that didn't vote from last time, voted for him again
this time. They seem to like this, Oh god, oh god,
it's getting worse. So they're trying to find their sea legs.
So they're gonna continue to test out there what's going on, Like,
all right, let's try this, let's try that, let's rule. Okay,
we'll put this out here, we'll see if they're Are
they gonna respond to this?

Speaker 18 (01:36:26):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:36:26):
They're gonna respond to this Nazi thing?

Speaker 3 (01:36:28):
Are they?

Speaker 23 (01:36:29):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:36:29):
No, dope, have it over here?

Speaker 4 (01:36:31):
Are they gonna respond to Trump is a fascist, maybe
not so much, maybe not so much.

Speaker 2 (01:36:38):
Okay, okay, how about this, are they gonna respond to
Trump is a xenophobe?

Speaker 17 (01:36:47):
See that it works.

Speaker 4 (01:36:48):
No, it's working in our room. But is it working
out that it's not working out there either? No, no,
because it's not working because nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:36:59):
That they is real, It just isn't. It's all bs.

Speaker 4 (01:37:06):
Lunacy push from a bizarre wackado belief that somehow their
asses getting kicked in the last election shows you how
much they were right to hate Donald Trump. And all
the while, well everybody's talking about did Nazi salute fun

(01:37:26):
Sohail Elon and Trump being a fascist and getting rid
of all the brown people in the country. Yesterday he
did something that is arguably maybe the most important thing
he does.

Speaker 2 (01:37:42):
His entire four years in office.

Speaker 6 (01:37:47):
Right now, and it has to do with AI, to
announce the largest AI infrastructure project by far in history.
And it's all taking place right here in America.

Speaker 2 (01:38:00):
Okay, that's right. It's called Stargate and it is AI
of AI.

Speaker 4 (01:38:11):
The battle that is going on now, the arms race
that is going on, has very little to do with
actual arms. We're not going to war everybody's got enough
weapons to destroy each other, mutual assured destruction.

Speaker 2 (01:38:23):
It isn't happening. But AI is where the new battlefield is.
China's working hard.

Speaker 4 (01:38:34):
The problem with China and why China's AI will never
ever ever be what ours is is they don't have
any freedoms because they're trying to limit their AI so much.
It's not going to give them the same kind of thing.
But we're talking about a different kind of AI. This
is chat GPT. But you do need that freedom. This

(01:38:57):
is a race of arms for our official intelligence for
things that we are we can't even fathom yet.

Speaker 2 (01:39:07):
So they're going to invest five hundred billion. It starts
with one hundred billion.

Speaker 4 (01:39:12):
One of the reasons we need to be energy independent
more than any other reason, not even bringing down gas prices,
it's because the amount of energy that is going to
be needed to power many of these things. This stuff
is incredible, Larry Ellison and I've said it for years.
And it's funny because my old show with my super

(01:39:34):
best friend Gaetos, he used to laugh and because we
talk about AI.

Speaker 2 (01:39:38):
I guess, dude, you're like all about it. And I said, man,
this stuff right here, this is.

Speaker 4 (01:39:44):
Arguably, and I don't even think anymore's arguable the wheel
fire combustible engine ai more important than everything. It is
going to revolutionize everything from the healthcare's perspective. Do I
think we're going to get pro solved that we never
thought we'd get solved in a manner that is going

(01:40:04):
to be way quicker than anything we could have ever thought.

Speaker 2 (01:40:06):
Absolutely, there is going to be so many things that
come out of this.

Speaker 4 (01:40:12):
And that's why yesterday, because it really wasn't super talked
about the way it should have been.

Speaker 2 (01:40:18):
I'm here to tell you this is so important. Larry
Ellison came out and said, this is the most important
thing done in our era, maybe ever. And one day
sooner around and later, we will have mystery solved.

Speaker 4 (01:40:36):
We will have situations where you think we're never going
to be able to figure out how to fight this cancer,
and it will, he said, We'll have vaccines for cancers.
Then you put in the other applications for this. It
is otherworldly. So while you're hating on Trump, recognize a
lot of stuff is getting done, and so much of

(01:40:58):
it that isn't quote unquote a talking points that the
media wants to fight with is so important three two, three, five,

Now it's time for the Chad Action news Weather reports
when weather Weather's we weather the storm.

Speaker 2 (01:42:52):
We're weathering the storm everywhere right now.

Speaker 4 (01:42:55):
You want to know how cold it is outside, Just
know it's cold, and it's cold in places it's not
really ever cold.

Speaker 29 (01:43:04):
In New Orleans, the iconic streets at the French Quarter
hacked with snow, the city's downtown streets practically unrecognizable. Residents
stunned by all of it.

Speaker 1 (01:43:14):
I think snow before, but never in New Orleans.

Speaker 29 (01:43:18):
In Houston, both airports close to all flights, more than
a dozen airports halting operations across the region, thousands of
flights canceled. Official say, while help is coming from around
the state, the city doesn't even own a single snowplow
of its own.

Speaker 2 (01:43:34):
Why would it, Honestly, why would it? There's no reason
for it.

Speaker 4 (01:43:41):
Well, obviously there is, yep, but you're not gonna have
one for a once in a kind of generation thing.
Like I said, hey, kids, we eat when weather weathers.
We weather the storm for you. Currently, where I reside,
seven degrees. Are you ready for the feels like.

Speaker 2 (01:44:00):
One? Oh, my dogs are not gonna have a good day.

Speaker 29 (01:44:04):
Highways shut down, treacherous travel from a once in a
generation Gulf Coast white out crippling the Deep South.

Speaker 2 (01:44:10):
We've never seen anything like this.

Speaker 8 (01:44:12):
I mean, it's that simple.

Speaker 29 (01:44:14):
The first blizzard warnings ever issued for the state of Louisiana.
Howling wind and more than ten inches of snow in spots,
authority shutting down dozens of highways, overpasses, and bridges.

Speaker 4 (01:44:28):
Now here's something interesting. As we talk about, like how
cold it is in you know, the South, they're not
prepared for it. They're not when we first moved out here.
I'm like, how often do we get snow? How we
get snow every year? I said, I know, but how
often that say? We used to get three kind of
good dustings and one decent snow. We had our decent

(01:44:49):
snow last week. We've got a couple of dustings already
here in Nashville, so a little bit better prepared though
for this than Louisiana. But when it comes to the
cold baby the middle of the country, the upper middle,
it gets a little chillier.

Speaker 12 (01:45:05):
The unusually cold weather spreading to roughly eighty percent of
the country. Charlotte waking up to seventeen degrees this morning,
fourteen in Jackson, Mississippi. Farther north, wind shows below zero
in many areas. In New York City, parts of the
Hudson River frozen. In Minnesota, boiling water instantly evaporating, the
temperature in Minneapolis plunging to nineteen below zero.

Speaker 2 (01:45:28):
Nineteen below zero.

Speaker 4 (01:45:30):
Kids will probably still go to school. They're a hardy bunch.
What we're saying today is just listen to the Chad
Benson Show. It's all you need to do. We'll get
you through everything that you need to get through.

Speaker 2 (01:45:45):
We give you the good, the bad, and the cold.
That's what I'm saying. Netflix Chill, but you're gonna chill
with less money.

Speaker 26 (01:45:54):
Netflix announcing another round of price hikes. The ADS supported
tier will now cost seven ninety nine, up from six
ninety nine. The standard AD free tier will go from
fifteen forty nine to seventeen ninety nine per month, and
the cost of the premium tier is increasing by two
dollars to twenty four ninety nine. The price hike comes
even though Netflix just saw its biggest ever quarterly jump

(01:46:17):
in subscribers, fresh off the Mike Tyson Jake Paul boxing
match in November, which drew one hundred and eight million viewers.

Speaker 4 (01:46:25):
Yeah, the first of all, what do you get for
the the biggest Okay, you get one with the ads,
I get that. Then you get one without ads. What's
the other one? Oh, we got other stuff. We don't
show that regular people. So this is like first class?

Speaker 2 (01:46:42):
Is that what it is? Do I get serve something?
I'm curious? I am curious.

Speaker 4 (01:46:48):
And they had their biggest ever jump with subscribers. Nineteen
million new subscribers last quarter puts them over three hundred
and two million globally, solidifying the companies hold on the
top spot.

Speaker 2 (01:47:05):
In the industry.

Speaker 4 (01:47:09):
I'm just I'm curious as to what the twenty four
to ninety nine gets you. Four K video quality, that's
it really is nothing else. You don't have something special hidden? Well,
that's kind of lame. I expected more out of you. Netflix,
Shumany Cricket.

Speaker 2 (01:47:31):
Man twenty four.

Speaker 4 (01:47:33):
If you start adding up your subscriptions now, it's probably
way more than what Cable was, no doubt about that,
if you started adding them up now.

Speaker 2 (01:47:48):
I know for us it is.

Speaker 4 (01:47:51):
Because you're like, well, we got to have this, and
we got to have that. Well, I gotta have Peacock
because of the Premier League. So I've got that that's
four ninety nine or seven ninety nine, and we've got
you know, it's just and then you find out, well,
hold on a second, is ESPN Plus and Disney and Hulu?
Why am I paying for all three separate when I
could come over here and just do well. It's just
so frustrating, it is. And then typing the damn password

(01:48:14):
on the you know, on the television that drives me
crazy too. I'm at the point where it's like, a
screw it, We'll just cancel it. I don't want to
try to play the what the hell's my password?

Speaker 2 (01:48:23):
Game?
