Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dana Lashes of surd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Man.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Okay, I've got two questions for you about this story.
First Off, who steals a tricycle? And secondly, what is
an adult tricycle? I'm thinking big wheels? Why don't they
make those? Basically an unrelated third question. Those were amazing, right,
and I didn't like it when the pedals got stripped,
but man, alive, that was big wheels were where it's at.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
Man, if I could get some with engines, I would
blow everybody away. There was a big wheels race. Okay,
where am I going? I don't know? Uh So this
is an Arcadia, Florida.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Here's why I asked this because there's a woman who
stole an adult tricycle.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
I don't even know what that is.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
And she was in a tiger print onesie. They identified her,
but they can't find her. Her voicemails full and they
can't find the tricycle. It's petty theft. But they literally said,
if you see somebody in a tiger on her tricycle,
please call, you know, the Sheriff's office. And I I'm
just trying to figure out what is an adult tricycle.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
I've never heard of.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
This Is it like motor powered? I'm afraid of write
adult into any kind of search engine.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
An enginer motor I guess.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
I mean, I look at all it's showing me your bikes.
I don't even know. It's just a three wheel bite.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
That's like really, that's I would imagine like I would
think it would have some fatty fat tires and you know,
like an engine something like a hemmy, I don't know,
can you imagine? Oh my gosh, all right, oh this
is crazy. A doorbell camera. There's the lady in the onesie.
She's the one who stole the tricycle.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Now here's something.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
If you see this chick, you see that broad in
the tiger onesI on an adult trike?
Speaker 4 (01:47):
You know, you holler at.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
The POPA doorball camera catches a Florida gator. Now they're progressing, guys,
Now they're walking. A Florida gator standing on two legs
and literally knocking on the door. It literally gets up
on its two legs and knocks on the door. Now
they can climb. I'm sorry, I love Florida, but one
(02:08):
of the reasons, probably the biggest reason I could never
maybe move there is this. They will climb up your fences,
up your walls, knocking your doors.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
So it's on Reddit.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
It was on Reddit, and he said, meanwhile in Florida,
and it shows two gators. One of them stands up
on its back legs and literally knocks on the door.
And it's all on camera. They were able to call
Florida Fish and Wildlife, but so far by the time
Florida Fish and Wildlife got there because it was an emergency,
it was not an emergency call.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
They had. The gators kind of wandered away.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
But I wouldn't like you have animals, would you feel
comfortable letting your animal?
Speaker 4 (02:43):
I mean there's gaters. If there's like a little pond, there's.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
A pothole in the road, there's a gator in it.
I mean it's that wand has shown you.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
That's what it did.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
That's from his ring door of the camera to Florida man.
The gators are evolving. So it's happening. Our partners over
at All Family Pharmacies. This is one of my favorite
favorite people to work with, and not just because I'm
actually a customer It's like that hairclub for menting.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Not only am I'm also the president.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Well I'm not the president, but I love what they
do because medicines that you need, and especially those therapeutics
that the government tried to prevent you from getting during lockdown,
well they have all of it. They've got the Evermacht
and they got the hydroxychloroquant, they have all of the antibiotics.
They also have your everyday medications, and they're affordable. It's simple,
and it's fast. If you don't have insurance, not an
(03:29):
issue because they have very straightforward, affordable pricing online ordering
shipping is just two to four days. You can also
do overnight in a pinch, which I have done before
because oh my gosh, I was getting strut throwat for
Thanksgiving and thought I was gonna die, and I'm like,
I couldn't get the urgent care. There was a line
like I gotta get sent. They got it to me
overnight and I was immediately able to start getting better
and still host Thanksgiving.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
It was amazing and not infect everybody.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
It was so nice. All The other thing that I
love is everything is made in the US. You can't
say that with other medications. Or the inputs from other medications.
But you can say that with All Family Pharmacy, none
of the stuff comes from either China nor India. It's
all manufactured all from right here in the US of A.

So I know you're not country illegally, you are going home,
simple as that we do not have unlimited I think.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
A lot of Americans, people other than the black people
who were brought here as slaves who came to this
country illegally, there are a lot.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Of people who were brought here against that exod.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
There's a good difference and connect indignan. That's a let
me just share. There are a lot of people from
I think you actually miss heard what she I think
you misheard what she said. No, she said purpose. So
(05:09):
now you're in Michael, listen to me first.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Is that where we're going, Michael advocate black people entire
life something like that.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
An advocated for congratulations. Last time I checked. I'm black,
You're not okay show.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
That's why I'm Latino and my people are being raised.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
To remind you the history of my people. Want to go,
I don't. We're going to go to break Roald, thank
you very much for joining us. Everybody else Phillips that
control panel. First off, that was k Lee. That was
a hot mess. I mean, I expect to see, you know,
(05:48):
a woman act like that and you know, maybe.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
A dollar store, waffle house at two am, or waffle
house at two am, drunk and slapping people with her
flip flop, but I don't expect to see her acting
like that, you know, on a set. So that was
Anna Navarro and Shermichael Singleton, and I'm highlighting it for
the specific purpose of identity politic Olympics. Welcome back to
the program, Dana lash with you. So this I thought
(06:13):
was one of the craziest things. Anna Navarro was just
mad in the segment because she realizes that she loses
authority by not being the only minority on set. That
is where her soul, all of her influence and everything
comes from. That's all she talks about every day. That's
all she ever talks about every conversation that I've ever seen,
(06:35):
and it's not like I follow her. I've never gone
to her for insights sidebar. When when I was getting
into you know, politics at the policy level back in
eight oh nine, you know everything else from the Tea Party,
she was there on the right. She was always trying
to get on fogs and she was always writing op eds,
but she never really had any traction. She was just
kind of basic right. And it wasn't until she decided
(06:58):
to get TDS and go on a rampage and pretend
to be a Republican while going on the View, and
then she got the slot on the View, don't I
honestly don't know how she considers herself a Republican because
she's on the left side of Republicans on every single issue.
And I tend to think Republicans by and large are
pretty moderate. That's why I'm not one, because they're too
(07:21):
moderate for me. I just don't subscribe to any particular
party because they're all stupid. That said, I don't know
why she calls herself a Republican because she's so far
to the left of any Republican policy and she has
a problem with all of it. But that's like her
and David Brock who started Media Matters, that's sort of
their imo. They didn't get enough appreciation on the right,
and so out of spite, they just decided to reject
(07:43):
their ideology and go to the left because the left
would use them, and they mistake being used with appreciation.
They mistake being played as influence. And it's kind of
embarrassing to watch like an older woman get played like
that by producers and the left. She's just mad because
she sits on that panel and she's not the only minority.
(08:04):
She doesn't have any authority derived from being the only
minority on set. She does not want to share any
intersectionality because that's all she brings to the table. She's
it's her whole, entire grift, and that's why she talks
about it endlessly every response that she has, Like all
of these videos that we've played before, I think in honesty,
(08:26):
it's only been like a couple but she always taught, well,
I'm a Latina, I'm this, you know, blah blah blah.
And she's constantly playing identity politics as a way to
shut everyone up and sort of try to gain an
alpha position at the table based upon that. And what
Cana and I were talking about on break is that
plays still on television, at least with the old crowd.
(08:46):
It plays on television because that's I mean, clearly she
thinks that there's a value in that, and I think
previously it used maybe people were too I don't think
it was value.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
I think it was bullying.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
People did not want to be accused of a moral
failing because they disagreed with a minority and so and
that's how it was. I mean, ever, oh my gosh,
my whole entire life in politics, that's all it's been.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
If you disagree with this, you're a racist.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
You didn't even have to have to disagree with someone
who had a different skin color or background. You could
not want to vote for Hillary Clinton, the old white
woman who fell down in Manhattan and lost to Tory
Birch slipper, and you're called a racist. But that's that's
a grift. It's identity politics. And so she's sitting there
across from Shermichael Singleton, who's a conservative, and he was
(09:35):
accurate in calling out her super dumb comparison, and she
did make a dumb comparison, and if she wanted to
make it clearer, she should have spoken better instead of
mush mouth mouthing and running all of her words together.
I mean, nobody knows what you're saying when you're talking
like the micro machine man, and you're like, I mean
you're not you know this is this is not one
(09:58):
too many Mimosa's brunch. You're on a panel on a
morning show, act like it, you know, speak clearly, articulate
your words, have like ideas, and the defense can't always
be well, I'm latinos, so you can't disagree with me.
No one gives a rats ass. Spare us, you racist bitch.
I'm so tired of this stuff. And that's exactly what
it is. Oh quote me, I'm so tired of it.
(10:21):
I'm tired of the griff that these people have day
in and day out. They're racists. And she tries to
shut up a guy for being conservative by acting like
she's the white adjacent savior of the black race that
there was. At one point in that she's like, well,
I've I've defended you know, blah blah blah, my you
know my whole life black?
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Who cares?
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Are you supposed to get a special trophy for this,
you're so, I mean, that's like an actual racist remark.
So you get to shut someone else down, and you
get to demonize and diminish their background by making this
absolutely illogical and embarrassing comparison to criminal illegal entry, and
(11:01):
you compare it really awkwardly to slavery. And then when
he just makes a reasonable objection, you lose your mind
and become a stereotype. That's embarrassing and I'm just tired
of seeing this. That's all CNN has. CNN's like, Okay,
we got to do. We have the black commentator, the
Hispanic commentator, the white Anglo sex and protestant.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
Let's make sure that we have every people don't.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
I don't think people care about it anymore because they
were supposed they were forced to make it a priority.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Completely.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
The opposite of how I was. Race came when we
were younger. No one cared about this. No one cared
about what race you were. I mean, somebody, you know,
how goofy this is. When I was younger, I had friends,
some of my very good, my very very close friends
were Hispanic, and I just it never registered with me.
It never because no one obsessed over it.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
We just did our thing. Are you cool? Do you
want to hang out? Okay?
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Oh we like the same music. That's awesome. Yay, we're
both in the same sport. Yay, that's great.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
We like something. I mean, that's that's all it was.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
You just didn't and it didn't matter if they were
Hispanic or black, or Asian or whatever or Indian.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
One of my very good friends was Indian, and we
just didn't even care.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
It's not no one sat around and focused on So
you're Indian, talk to me about that, or you're black,
let's discuss.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
We just didn't do that.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
That was not a phenomenon until I guess when I
started at college, and then it started becoming a thing.
And I noticed that it was becoming a thing because
people were putting that as their identity first and foremost
above everything else. And my first experience, when I was
(12:45):
a freshman in college, one of the people that I
met and became friends with, she was a black woman,
and we got along really good. You know, we liked
a lot of the same food, you know, and I mean,
obviously we had clearly we had differences, but it wasn't
just it wasn't something that we really focused on. And
then I knew I saw kind of going into my
(13:06):
sophomore year that she started to be a little bit
more identity forward.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
She had joined a.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Couple of groups in college, and she started to be
a little bit more identity forward. And then by the
time you know, I we were leaving and graduating, it
was we just didn't really talk anymore because she had
become very very militant in that. And I started to
see other people get very very militant in terms of
beings that is your identity first and foremost above anything else,
(13:30):
above being a Christian, above being an American, even above
being like a woman. Like that that became and it
didn't matter if you were black or Muslim or Asian
or Indian or whatever. That became like the thing immediately like, Okay,
here's this. We're never going to be very close because
you and I don't share this identity politic. And that's
when I really started noticing it take root. And it
(13:51):
was really sad because that was not anything that you know,
and then there were all of these manufactured, you know,
victimization stories. I don't know, but I just saw this
and I'm like, that is so that was really bitchy
to do to him to say that, And you can
tell she got mad because he objected. She is not
used to having her identity politic contested, particularly on a
(14:13):
national stage. And I probably would say, particularly by someone who,
you know, if you really wanted to argue identity politics,
probably has a bigger box to check than she does.
I don't think that he was participating in it. I
think that he was highlighting her absurdity with absurdity, and
she just wasn't quick enough to get it. She's not
smart enough to see it. That was one of the
(14:33):
most embarrassing exchanges I've ever seen. If I was a producer,
I'd be like, I can't have her back on the
show because it turned into like kindergarten fighting.
Speaker 4 (14:43):
That was embarrassing. But that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
I mean, and there, and I've seen people like this.
I've seen people like this on the right too. This
identity politic, you know the phrase the woke right, That
is a real thing. There are people on the right
that use identity politics as kind of like a shield
in simultaneously a shield and a cudgel, the same way
that they do on the left. Identity politics as identity politics,
and it doesn't matter what the rest of your politics
(15:08):
are if you subscribe to that. That is a communist
left tactic and you're practicing it when you subscribe to that.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
But that was insane.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Can you imagine, you know, acting like, well, yeah, but
I've defended black people, Kane like, oh oh uh, yes, Masa,
that means that you can be the ultimate authority over me.
Oh you've different. That's like saying yes, I have black friends.
Isn't that the same thing as saying it? That's like,
that's the exact same thing. Good heavens. That was just
so embarrassing. It was a very embarrassing discussion. It did
(15:40):
not go well with them. Celtech they make some very
amazing things. I was telling you about their new five
to seven. It's the PR fifty seven chambered in five
seven rotary barrel pistol. Course difference, They've got the instead
of the magazine, they got a stripper clip, so you
got slimmer profile twenty plus one capacity as well. But
they also have a new ten millimeter that they are
out with and this is brand new. I found this
out weeks ago and I wasn't able to talk about
(16:01):
it until now they're raising the bar again. It's the
third generation Sub two K folds fast optics, stay in place,
and it deploys super fast, zeroed and ready. It's innovation
with a twist, now available in ten millimeter and it
folds down to sixteen and a half inches, easy to transport,
easy to store, standard fifteen round block twenty mag. Yes
it does takelock mags. You've got ample capacity for whatever
(16:23):
your shooting needs are optional extended mag and you've got
a fifty round drum even that you can have for
extended sessions at the range with fewer reloads. This is
all from the great minds at Celtech. They make everything
right here in the USA, US labor, US materials, US workers, everything,
and they stand behind every product they make. We need
more companies like Teltech. Learn more at cel Tech Weapons

Tell them Dana sent you.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
And now all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick five.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
So apparently there's.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
A new social revolution sweeping America. It's the hot new
club called staying in. It's your house and your music
and all your food in your fridge. What literally apparently
like that's that's the thing. It means avoiding nightlife. What.
I think that a lot of that might be driven
by the economy too. If I'm being honest, seventy two
(17:19):
percent of adults prefer their living or into night life.
Can I be real though, I've always been like this
my whole life. When I am out somewhere, it is
always reluctantly. Cain will attest to it. I am a Hobbit,
I am. I actually could be happy being the only
person on Earth forever. I think I'm one of the
only people that could live like that. I am completely fine.
I'll entertain myself, do my hobbies, you know whatever. I'm
(17:43):
totally fine with it as long as I have dogs.
Not that it's different, but they said that three quarters
of Americans would rather stay home than go out, and
that includes with friends, with or without friends. They would
even rather stay in their homes and have friends over
than even go out with people.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
So it's kind of interesting. I think some of it.
A lot of this is gen Z driven.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Gen Z are also Hobbits because they were raised by
us jen X, who are the original Hobbits. What are
you and now what is this, Oh, Barbara streisan is debut.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
I literally don't care. They're doing an album with a
whole bunch of older people.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
I don't care. Oh Robertson, Can I just say I
think she's overrated.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Barbara streisand is one of the most overrated performers on
God's Green Earth. I don't get it, Like, yeah, that's news.
I mean, you know, don't try to convince me you're
not gonna I don't get it.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
I just don't get her. I have a couple of
friends that think she's so great, and I'm like, you're young,
What does the matter with you? Like, she's not. She
has like one range, it's the same. I'm gonna get
hate mail. Bring it.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
I will not get as much hate mail for saying
that I hated Abba, though people wouldn't light me on
fire for that.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Don't get me. I mean, it's just not my back.
They're talented. I think they have more talent than her,
So it's okay.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
What's happening on planes?
Speaker 1 (18:57):
There's a flight attendant had a wrestle crazy chick to
the ground because she tried to storm the cockpit on
a plane to New York.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Was she in New Yorker?
Speaker 1 (19:06):
That might make sense, and she's an older Karen too,
and she tried to like get did she think it
was the bathroom? She it was called a strange coup attempt,
and she was mad. It was an American Airlines flight
and she was upset that it was delayed, and of course,
you know she's gonna be facing charges because you can't
be doing that kind of you can't be like acting
like a fool on the plane like that. That's crazy.
(19:27):
This is the honestly, we've had one of these headlines
every single day. But it was a New York bound
American Airlines flight. And for the first part of the video,
everyone just stands around very visibly confused, like are we
being punked?
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Because she was so over the top.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
A home buy our mortgage demands dropped further as economic
uncertainty royals the housing market.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
That's to be expected.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
The average rate for thirty year decrease six point eight
from six point nine, but buyers are hitting pause.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
All still stick with us. More to come, you know.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
First, they came for the Latino outside of the home depots,
trying to get work so that they could feed their families,
and I didn't say anything about it because I'm not
a Latino at the home depot.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Now, that was the only like mildly entertaining part of
what's his face? Hank Johnson guam tip over his remarks
because it all fell apart. He couldn't rhyme anything else
after that, and I, what is that? Even from this
is like some cat and the hat Green Eggs and Ham.
Welcome back to the program, Dana lash with you. We're
(20:42):
at the top of this third hour. Coming up our gain.
We're gonna have two guests to simultaneously. General Randy George,
who is Chief of Staff of the Army and Secretary
of the Army, Dan Driscoll, who I've met before. I
told you this a few months ago, sat down with
him and was talking to him about a number of things,
(21:03):
including recruitment, and then of course tech and drones, drone warfare.
There's not there's several things that make me nervous, hunting
wild hogs because they're terrifying, and drones and also crickets,
but that's a whole other story.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
Made me very nervous. They fight your face. It's crazy anyway.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
So he's going to sit down and talk with us
because there's a lot of changes coming through DoD Or
they're going to discuss and that's coming up at the
bottom of this hour. So welcome Dana Lash listening coast
to coast the chats at Rumble. If you're not listening
terrestrially in one of our hundreds of stations, you're probably
watching the stream MUNCHINGEL three forty seven, or on Facebook
or on x or.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Like I said over at Rumble, so.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Uh kin, Yeah, that was downright poetic from Hank Johnson,
don't you agree. I feel like that men's going to
receive a pillets are yeah, so so artful and the
tinos at home depot just hung out at a home depot.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Just you know, as an observation, racist as hell.
Speaker 4 (22:05):
Oh yeah, oh so bad. It's so bad.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
But did you see the look on his face, Like
right before the clip ends the way he's like wistfully
looking at the people watching him. I honestly, he's got
this look on his face of smug cleverness. He thinks
that what he's doing is really smart. He was a
new beat poet.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
He thought what he said was clever. Well, latitooa and
home depot.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Whoa man? So I'm married really underappreciated.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
That that is racist. Is all get out Latino, and
you know there are a lot of other people at
the home depot.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
I like hating. I like going.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
My husband doesn't like it because I think, you know
how sometimes men will go and they want a man trip,
like a man errand a quest. They want to go
on their own man quest, and they don't want their
wives to go along with them, because I will completely
distract you from everything.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Do get new ideas on how to build stuff when.
Speaker 4 (23:02):
They walk through, so do women when we walk through.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Don't let me near the garden center because I'll be
creating chores right and left, right and left.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
But you know, other people besides Latino would like to
hang out at home depot. You will racist.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
It's just I mean when I kind of I want
to lie because he thought it was real clever when
and it goes on forever, but it falls apart after
that because then he can't rhyme anything else and it
looks so dumb.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
But he thought that that was a great. Oh this
is my sound.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Remember this is from the party that says they don't
like stereotypes.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yeah, they don't like stereotypes. But the Latinos at the
Home Depot. You know, everybody likes to go to, you know,
a home improvement store, whether it's Low's or Home Depot.
They all like going, right, I mean, like I said,
I like going. I like going and going down the
aisles that have all the do Dads in them. I
just want to go look for all the men are dying.
I just like looking at the sign and like, where
(23:55):
is the do Dad aisle? Because I'm sure there's something
that I don't have.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Every aisle is the d Yeah, but there's like.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
Things and stuff. It's crazy.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
And then when you go to like the Science Experiment
aisle where they have their tinctures and there I don't know,
like their cak and the glue and glue guns and
blue guns.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Are we still talking about home?
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (24:16):
Yes, I don't know. There's like things that you can
do with it.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
There's stuff that's dangerous probably if you got it in
your eyes, and if you got it you can do
stuff with it.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
I just like going and I'm like, there are so
many things here. I am it's amazing. I like going
to the Home Depot and my Chris goes with me.
He goes and he's like, there's a couple things I
want to go. Maybe i'll look.
Speaker 4 (24:34):
Around, you know. And I'm like, let's look at all
the things. And then I tell him did you know
that they have this? And he's like, yes, I know.
I'm a man.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
I know these things for several years now. When I
walk by the plywood and the lumber and all that,
and I'm like, man, that price.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Of wood, right, I didn't even know what the price
of wood was before because I don't build stuff regularly.
But I look at it now, I'm like, whoa, that's crazy.
But there's just all kinds of things fun things to
look at, right that, and like great inventions that you
you think, why did I think of this? This is
a great idea, This is a great product. And then
(25:11):
what I do is I take like a photo of
it like a psycho and I'm like, that's a great idea.
Just because I want to remember how good of an
idea it is, I'll take a picture of it.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Does anybody else do that?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Me? No, I don't know. But and I like the
way it smells in there because it smells like wood.
Shavings and paint, and I love that. We love the
smell of gas.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
Yes, can we run that club again?
Speaker 2 (25:30):
I have something for that.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Okay, Yeah, go ahead with the home the Latinos and
Home Depot please, Hank Johnson.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
You know, first they came for the Latinos outside of
the home depots. I don't think the TV trying to
get work audience is hearing, but that they could feed
their families.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
We're playing the home depot.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Game and I didn't say anything about it because I'm
not a Latino at the home depot.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
That's like an ad. I mean that is an ad.
I mean, I like you, where can you go to.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Find Latinos at the home Depot? And it's just Hank
Johnson for Home Depot.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Man. That is like such an identifying riff, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Though?
Speaker 4 (26:28):
Yeah, it's by the way.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
I asked Rock, I said, can you write a story
about Latinos at home Depot?
Speaker 4 (26:37):
I did? Yeah? Are you ready?
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Do we need this again?
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (26:43):
We're gonna need it.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
The Home Depot on Caesar Chavez Boulevard buzzed under the
Texas sun. It's parking lot, a mosaic pickup trucks, low
riders and minivans, blasting everything from bad Bunny to classic Tehana.
It was Saturday morning, and the store was a second
home for half the neighborhood. Among the aisles of lumber
and paint cans, three Latinos Javier, Marisol and Diego crossed paths,
(27:12):
each on their own mission, but bound by the unspoken
rhythm of community. Javier, a wiry contractor in his forties
with a faded astro cap, pushed a flatbag carp piled
highway two by fours and dryball. He'd been up since
five am bidding on a remodel job in East Austin, Mirah.
I'm telling you, these jennifications got everyone wanting ship lap.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
He grumbled to his cousin Diego.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Who trailed behind with a back of concrete mix slung
over his shoulder. Diego, twenty five and fresh off a
landscaping gig, laughed.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
Ship lap Man two shiplap elatis.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
I said that in the seventies, call it vintage charged double.
Javier dropped the tool corral, eying a new de Walt drill.
If I win this bid, I'm upgrading these clients. Went
ardis in by my wallet screaming bargain Diego smirt, tossing
a roll of painters the tape under the cart.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
Oh it goes on.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Marisol navigated the garden center, her toddler Sophia, giggling in
the cart.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
I mean it goes on. It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
At Home Depot, an employe named Carlos spotted her puzzled
look and strolled over orange apron swinging.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And there it is.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
The more mentions of Latinos at Home Depot.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Latinos at Home Depot courtesy of Hank Johnson. By the way,
this song on this song on the internet is called
Let's Do It.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
There's a word for the name of the song. And
someone uploaded an hour continuous mix of this.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Are you serious? That's actually amazing? A continuous one hour.
I think my kids made this the ring tone for
Papa because he worked at home Depot for a while.
My stepdaddy when he retired, he got he got bored
to death on day two of retirement and he's like,
I'm gonna go work at home deepo because he's forklifts certified.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Which why is that? Is that a big thing with
you dudes? Is that a big thing? Steve forklifts are notification.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I don't think so that would me.
Speaker 4 (29:03):
Okay, maybe Steve dj fun uncles like an outlier here.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Yeah, I mean you have to be able to operate
large equipment, right, so you need some sort of service.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Apparently gen Z thinks that's a measure of a man
is whether or not you can drive a forklift.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
But and he, you know fair Yeah, so so he
and he he liked home depot, he liked working there,
and then he got bored and he wanted to change
it up because you know, he had all the seniority
going in there.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
But I think that was his ring tone for a while.
Papa's ring tone was guy that.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Actually wrote that. Can you imagine me the dude that
wrote that.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
It's very simple. It's almost like Peter Gunn. It's this
very simple little guitar line.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
That's all it is.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
How do we get on that subject? I have no
idea anyway? Okay, So yeah, Hank Johnson, damn you, Hank Johnson.
At least we're not talking about guam tipping over, rolling
over in the ocean like an iceberg or something.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Good.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
Heavens, that is Democrats for you. It's Democrats that's so,
that's that's you know, that's one. It is. Thanks for

Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Man.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Okay, I've got two questions for you about this story.
First Off, who steals a tricycle? And secondly, what is
an adult tricycle? I'm thinking big wheels? Why don't they
make those? Basically an unrelated third question. Those were amazing, right,
and I didn't like it when the pedals got stripped,
but man, alive, that was big wheels were where it's at.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
Man, if I could get some with engines, I would
blow everybody away. There was a big wheels race. Okay,
where am I going? I don't know? Uh So this
is an Arcadia, Florida.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Here's why I asked this because there's a woman who
stole an adult tricycle.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
I don't even know what that is.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
And she was in a tiger print onesie. They identified her,
but they can't find her. Her voicemails full and they
can't find the tricycle. It's petty theft. But they literally said,
if you see somebody in a tiger on her tricycle,
please call, you know, the Sheriff's office. And I I'm
just trying to figure out what is an adult tricycle.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
I've never heard of.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
This Is it like motor powered? I'm afraid of write
adult into any kind of search engine.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
An enginer motor I guess.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
I mean, I look at all it's showing me your bikes.
I don't even know. It's just a three wheel bite.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
That's like really, that's I would imagine like I would
think it would have some fatty fat tires and you know,
like an engine something like a hemmy, I don't know,
can you imagine? Oh my gosh, all right, oh this
is crazy. A doorbell camera. There's the lady in the onesie.
She's the one who stole the tricycle.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Now here's something.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
If you see this chick, you see that broad in
the tiger onesI on an adult trike?
Speaker 4 (01:47):
You know, you holler at.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
The POPA doorball camera catches a Florida gator. Now they're progressing, guys,
Now they're walking. A Florida gator standing on two legs
and literally knocking on the door. It literally gets up
on its two legs and knocks on the door. Now
they can climb. I'm sorry, I love Florida, but one
(02:08):
of the reasons, probably the biggest reason I could never
maybe move there is this. They will climb up your fences,
up your walls, knocking your doors.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
So it's on Reddit.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
It was on Reddit, and he said, meanwhile in Florida,
and it shows two gators. One of them stands up
on its back legs and literally knocks on the door.
And it's all on camera. They were able to call
Florida Fish and Wildlife, but so far by the time
Florida Fish and Wildlife got there because it was an emergency,
it was not an emergency call.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
They had. The gators kind of wandered away.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
But I wouldn't like you have animals, would you feel
comfortable letting your animal?
Speaker 4 (02:43):
I mean there's gaters. If there's like a little pond, there's.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
A pothole in the road, there's a gator in it.
I mean it's that wand has shown you.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
That's what it did.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
That's from his ring door of the camera to Florida man.
The gators are evolving. So it's happening. Our partners over
at All Family Pharmacies. This is one of my favorite
favorite people to work with, and not just because I'm
actually a customer It's like that hairclub for menting.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Not only am I'm also the president.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Well I'm not the president, but I love what they
do because medicines that you need, and especially those therapeutics
that the government tried to prevent you from getting during lockdown,
well they have all of it. They've got the Evermacht
and they got the hydroxychloroquant, they have all of the antibiotics.
They also have your everyday medications, and they're affordable. It's simple,
and it's fast. If you don't have insurance, not an
(03:29):
issue because they have very straightforward, affordable pricing online ordering
shipping is just two to four days. You can also
do overnight in a pinch, which I have done before
because oh my gosh, I was getting strut throwat for
Thanksgiving and thought I was gonna die, and I'm like,
I couldn't get the urgent care. There was a line
like I gotta get sent. They got it to me
overnight and I was immediately able to start getting better
and still host Thanksgiving.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
It was amazing and not infect everybody.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
It was so nice. All The other thing that I
love is everything is made in the US. You can't
say that with other medications. Or the inputs from other medications.
But you can say that with All Family Pharmacy, none
of the stuff comes from either China nor India. It's
all manufactured all from right here in the US of A.

So I know you're not country illegally, you are going home,
simple as that we do not have unlimited I think.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
A lot of Americans, people other than the black people
who were brought here as slaves who came to this
country illegally, there are a lot.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Of people who were brought here against that exod.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
There's a good difference and connect indignan. That's a let
me just share. There are a lot of people from
I think you actually miss heard what she I think
you misheard what she said. No, she said purpose. So
(05:09):
now you're in Michael, listen to me first.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Is that where we're going, Michael advocate black people entire
life something like that.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
An advocated for congratulations. Last time I checked. I'm black,
You're not okay show.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
That's why I'm Latino and my people are being raised.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
To remind you the history of my people. Want to go,
I don't. We're going to go to break Roald, thank
you very much for joining us. Everybody else Phillips that
control panel. First off, that was k Lee. That was
a hot mess. I mean, I expect to see, you know,
(05:48):
a woman act like that and you know, maybe.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
A dollar store, waffle house at two am, or waffle
house at two am, drunk and slapping people with her
flip flop, but I don't expect to see her acting
like that, you know, on a set. So that was
Anna Navarro and Shermichael Singleton, and I'm highlighting it for
the specific purpose of identity politic Olympics. Welcome back to
the program, Dana lash with you. So this I thought
(06:13):
was one of the craziest things. Anna Navarro was just
mad in the segment because she realizes that she loses
authority by not being the only minority on set. That
is where her soul, all of her influence and everything
comes from. That's all she talks about every day. That's
all she ever talks about every conversation that I've ever seen,
(06:35):
and it's not like I follow her. I've never gone
to her for insights sidebar. When when I was getting
into you know, politics at the policy level back in
eight oh nine, you know everything else from the Tea Party,
she was there on the right. She was always trying
to get on fogs and she was always writing op eds,
but she never really had any traction. She was just
kind of basic right. And it wasn't until she decided
(06:58):
to get TDS and go on a rampage and pretend
to be a Republican while going on the View, and
then she got the slot on the View, don't I
honestly don't know how she considers herself a Republican because
she's on the left side of Republicans on every single issue.
And I tend to think Republicans by and large are
pretty moderate. That's why I'm not one, because they're too
(07:21):
moderate for me. I just don't subscribe to any particular
party because they're all stupid. That said, I don't know
why she calls herself a Republican because she's so far
to the left of any Republican policy and she has
a problem with all of it. But that's like her
and David Brock who started Media Matters, that's sort of
their imo. They didn't get enough appreciation on the right,
and so out of spite, they just decided to reject
(07:43):
their ideology and go to the left because the left
would use them, and they mistake being used with appreciation.
They mistake being played as influence. And it's kind of
embarrassing to watch like an older woman get played like
that by producers and the left. She's just mad because
she sits on that panel and she's not the only minority.
(08:04):
She doesn't have any authority derived from being the only
minority on set. She does not want to share any
intersectionality because that's all she brings to the table. She's
it's her whole, entire grift, and that's why she talks
about it endlessly every response that she has, Like all
of these videos that we've played before, I think in honesty,
(08:26):
it's only been like a couple but she always taught, well,
I'm a Latina, I'm this, you know, blah blah blah.
And she's constantly playing identity politics as a way to
shut everyone up and sort of try to gain an
alpha position at the table based upon that. And what
Cana and I were talking about on break is that
plays still on television, at least with the old crowd.
(08:46):
It plays on television because that's I mean, clearly she
thinks that there's a value in that, and I think
previously it used maybe people were too I don't think
it was value.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
I think it was bullying.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
People did not want to be accused of a moral
failing because they disagreed with a minority and so and
that's how it was. I mean, ever, oh my gosh,
my whole entire life in politics, that's all it's been.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
If you disagree with this, you're a racist.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
You didn't even have to have to disagree with someone
who had a different skin color or background. You could
not want to vote for Hillary Clinton, the old white
woman who fell down in Manhattan and lost to Tory
Birch slipper, and you're called a racist. But that's that's
a grift. It's identity politics. And so she's sitting there
across from Shermichael Singleton, who's a conservative, and he was
(09:35):
accurate in calling out her super dumb comparison, and she
did make a dumb comparison, and if she wanted to
make it clearer, she should have spoken better instead of
mush mouth mouthing and running all of her words together.
I mean, nobody knows what you're saying when you're talking
like the micro machine man, and you're like, I mean
you're not you know this is this is not one
(09:58):
too many Mimosa's brunch. You're on a panel on a
morning show, act like it, you know, speak clearly, articulate
your words, have like ideas, and the defense can't always
be well, I'm latinos, so you can't disagree with me.
No one gives a rats ass. Spare us, you racist bitch.
I'm so tired of this stuff. And that's exactly what
it is. Oh quote me, I'm so tired of it.
(10:21):
I'm tired of the griff that these people have day
in and day out. They're racists. And she tries to
shut up a guy for being conservative by acting like
she's the white adjacent savior of the black race that
there was. At one point in that she's like, well,
I've I've defended you know, blah blah blah, my you
know my whole life black?
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Who cares?
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Are you supposed to get a special trophy for this,
you're so, I mean, that's like an actual racist remark.
So you get to shut someone else down, and you
get to demonize and diminish their background by making this
absolutely illogical and embarrassing comparison to criminal illegal entry, and
(11:01):
you compare it really awkwardly to slavery. And then when
he just makes a reasonable objection, you lose your mind
and become a stereotype. That's embarrassing and I'm just tired
of seeing this. That's all CNN has. CNN's like, Okay,
we got to do. We have the black commentator, the
Hispanic commentator, the white Anglo sex and protestant.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
Let's make sure that we have every people don't.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
I don't think people care about it anymore because they
were supposed they were forced to make it a priority.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Completely.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
The opposite of how I was. Race came when we
were younger. No one cared about this. No one cared
about what race you were. I mean, somebody, you know,
how goofy this is. When I was younger, I had friends,
some of my very good, my very very close friends
were Hispanic, and I just it never registered with me.
It never because no one obsessed over it.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
We just did our thing. Are you cool? Do you
want to hang out? Okay?
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Oh we like the same music. That's awesome. Yay, we're
both in the same sport. Yay, that's great.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
We like something. I mean, that's that's all it was.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
You just didn't and it didn't matter if they were
Hispanic or black, or Asian or whatever or Indian.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
One of my very good friends was Indian, and we
just didn't even care.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
It's not no one sat around and focused on So
you're Indian, talk to me about that, or you're black,
let's discuss.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
We just didn't do that.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
That was not a phenomenon until I guess when I
started at college, and then it started becoming a thing.
And I noticed that it was becoming a thing because
people were putting that as their identity first and foremost
above everything else. And my first experience, when I was
(12:45):
a freshman in college, one of the people that I
met and became friends with, she was a black woman,
and we got along really good. You know, we liked
a lot of the same food, you know, and I mean,
obviously we had clearly we had differences, but it wasn't
just it wasn't something that we really focused on. And
then I knew I saw kind of going into my
(13:06):
sophomore year that she started to be a little bit
more identity forward.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
She had joined a.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Couple of groups in college, and she started to be
a little bit more identity forward. And then by the
time you know, I we were leaving and graduating, it
was we just didn't really talk anymore because she had
become very very militant in that. And I started to
see other people get very very militant in terms of
beings that is your identity first and foremost above anything else,
(13:30):
above being a Christian, above being an American, even above
being like a woman. Like that that became and it
didn't matter if you were black or Muslim or Asian
or Indian or whatever. That became like the thing immediately like, Okay,
here's this. We're never going to be very close because
you and I don't share this identity politic. And that's
when I really started noticing it take root. And it
(13:51):
was really sad because that was not anything that you know,
and then there were all of these manufactured, you know,
victimization stories. I don't know, but I just saw this
and I'm like, that is so that was really bitchy
to do to him to say that, And you can
tell she got mad because he objected. She is not
used to having her identity politic contested, particularly on a
(14:13):
national stage. And I probably would say, particularly by someone who,
you know, if you really wanted to argue identity politics,
probably has a bigger box to check than she does.
I don't think that he was participating in it. I
think that he was highlighting her absurdity with absurdity, and
she just wasn't quick enough to get it. She's not
smart enough to see it. That was one of the
(14:33):
most embarrassing exchanges I've ever seen. If I was a producer,
I'd be like, I can't have her back on the
show because it turned into like kindergarten fighting.
Speaker 4 (14:43):
That was embarrassing. But that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
I mean, and there, and I've seen people like this.
I've seen people like this on the right too. This
identity politic, you know the phrase the woke right, That
is a real thing. There are people on the right
that use identity politics as kind of like a shield
in simultaneously a shield and a cudgel, the same way
that they do on the left. Identity politics as identity politics,
and it doesn't matter what the rest of your politics
(15:08):
are if you subscribe to that. That is a communist
left tactic and you're practicing it when you subscribe to that.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
But that was insane.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Can you imagine, you know, acting like, well, yeah, but
I've defended black people, Kane like, oh oh uh, yes, Masa,
that means that you can be the ultimate authority over me.
Oh you've different. That's like saying yes, I have black friends.
Isn't that the same thing as saying it? That's like,
that's the exact same thing. Good heavens. That was just
so embarrassing. It was a very embarrassing discussion. It did
(15:40):
not go well with them. Celtech they make some very
amazing things. I was telling you about their new five
to seven. It's the PR fifty seven chambered in five
seven rotary barrel pistol. Course difference, They've got the instead
of the magazine, they got a stripper clip, so you
got slimmer profile twenty plus one capacity as well. But
they also have a new ten millimeter that they are
out with and this is brand new. I found this
out weeks ago and I wasn't able to talk about
(16:01):
it until now they're raising the bar again. It's the
third generation Sub two K folds fast optics, stay in place,
and it deploys super fast, zeroed and ready. It's innovation
with a twist, now available in ten millimeter and it
folds down to sixteen and a half inches, easy to transport,
easy to store, standard fifteen round block twenty mag. Yes
it does takelock mags. You've got ample capacity for whatever
(16:23):
your shooting needs are optional extended mag and you've got
a fifty round drum even that you can have for
extended sessions at the range with fewer reloads. This is
all from the great minds at Celtech. They make everything
right here in the USA, US labor, US materials, US workers, everything,
and they stand behind every product they make. We need
more companies like Teltech. Learn more at cel Tech Weapons

Tell them Dana sent you.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
And now all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick five.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
So apparently there's.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
A new social revolution sweeping America. It's the hot new
club called staying in. It's your house and your music
and all your food in your fridge. What literally apparently
like that's that's the thing. It means avoiding nightlife. What.
I think that a lot of that might be driven
by the economy too. If I'm being honest, seventy two
(17:19):
percent of adults prefer their living or into night life.
Can I be real though, I've always been like this
my whole life. When I am out somewhere, it is
always reluctantly. Cain will attest to it. I am a Hobbit,
I am. I actually could be happy being the only
person on Earth forever. I think I'm one of the
only people that could live like that. I am completely fine.
I'll entertain myself, do my hobbies, you know whatever. I'm
(17:43):
totally fine with it as long as I have dogs.
Not that it's different, but they said that three quarters
of Americans would rather stay home than go out, and
that includes with friends, with or without friends. They would
even rather stay in their homes and have friends over
than even go out with people.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
So it's kind of interesting. I think some of it.
A lot of this is gen Z driven.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Gen Z are also Hobbits because they were raised by
us jen X, who are the original Hobbits. What are
you and now what is this, Oh, Barbara streisan is debut.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
I literally don't care. They're doing an album with a
whole bunch of older people.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
I don't care. Oh Robertson, Can I just say I
think she's overrated.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Barbara streisand is one of the most overrated performers on
God's Green Earth. I don't get it, Like, yeah, that's news.
I mean, you know, don't try to convince me you're
not gonna I don't get it.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
I just don't get her. I have a couple of
friends that think she's so great, and I'm like, you're young,
What does the matter with you? Like, she's not. She
has like one range, it's the same. I'm gonna get
hate mail. Bring it.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
I will not get as much hate mail for saying
that I hated Abba, though people wouldn't light me on
fire for that.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Don't get me. I mean, it's just not my back.
They're talented. I think they have more talent than her,
So it's okay.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
What's happening on planes?
Speaker 1 (18:57):
There's a flight attendant had a wrestle crazy chick to
the ground because she tried to storm the cockpit on
a plane to New York.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Was she in New Yorker?
Speaker 1 (19:06):
That might make sense, and she's an older Karen too,
and she tried to like get did she think it
was the bathroom? She it was called a strange coup attempt,
and she was mad. It was an American Airlines flight
and she was upset that it was delayed, and of course,
you know she's gonna be facing charges because you can't
be doing that kind of you can't be like acting
like a fool on the plane like that. That's crazy.
(19:27):
This is the honestly, we've had one of these headlines
every single day. But it was a New York bound
American Airlines flight. And for the first part of the video,
everyone just stands around very visibly confused, like are we
being punked?
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Because she was so over the top.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
A home buy our mortgage demands dropped further as economic
uncertainty royals the housing market.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
That's to be expected.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
The average rate for thirty year decrease six point eight
from six point nine, but buyers are hitting pause.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
All still stick with us. More to come, you know.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
First, they came for the Latino outside of the home depots,
trying to get work so that they could feed their families,
and I didn't say anything about it because I'm not
a Latino at the home depot.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Now, that was the only like mildly entertaining part of
what's his face? Hank Johnson guam tip over his remarks
because it all fell apart. He couldn't rhyme anything else
after that, and I, what is that? Even from this
is like some cat and the hat Green Eggs and Ham.
Welcome back to the program, Dana lash with you. We're
(20:42):
at the top of this third hour. Coming up our gain.
We're gonna have two guests to simultaneously. General Randy George,
who is Chief of Staff of the Army and Secretary
of the Army, Dan Driscoll, who I've met before. I
told you this a few months ago, sat down with
him and was talking to him about a number of things,
(21:03):
including recruitment, and then of course tech and drones, drone warfare.
There's not there's several things that make me nervous, hunting
wild hogs because they're terrifying, and drones and also crickets,
but that's a whole other story.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
Made me very nervous. They fight your face. It's crazy anyway.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
So he's going to sit down and talk with us
because there's a lot of changes coming through DoD Or
they're going to discuss and that's coming up at the
bottom of this hour. So welcome Dana Lash listening coast
to coast the chats at Rumble. If you're not listening
terrestrially in one of our hundreds of stations, you're probably
watching the stream MUNCHINGEL three forty seven, or on Facebook
or on x or.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Like I said over at Rumble, so.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Uh kin, Yeah, that was downright poetic from Hank Johnson,
don't you agree. I feel like that men's going to
receive a pillets are yeah, so so artful and the
tinos at home depot just hung out at a home depot.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Just you know, as an observation, racist as hell.
Speaker 4 (22:05):
Oh yeah, oh so bad. It's so bad.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
But did you see the look on his face, Like
right before the clip ends the way he's like wistfully
looking at the people watching him. I honestly, he's got
this look on his face of smug cleverness. He thinks
that what he's doing is really smart. He was a
new beat poet.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
He thought what he said was clever. Well, latitooa and
home depot.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Whoa man? So I'm married really underappreciated.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
That that is racist. Is all get out Latino, and
you know there are a lot of other people at
the home depot.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
I like hating. I like going.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
My husband doesn't like it because I think, you know
how sometimes men will go and they want a man trip,
like a man errand a quest. They want to go
on their own man quest, and they don't want their
wives to go along with them, because I will completely
distract you from everything.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Do get new ideas on how to build stuff when.
Speaker 4 (23:02):
They walk through, so do women when we walk through.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Don't let me near the garden center because I'll be
creating chores right and left, right and left.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
But you know, other people besides Latino would like to
hang out at home depot. You will racist.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
It's just I mean when I kind of I want
to lie because he thought it was real clever when
and it goes on forever, but it falls apart after
that because then he can't rhyme anything else and it
looks so dumb.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
But he thought that that was a great. Oh this
is my sound.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Remember this is from the party that says they don't
like stereotypes.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yeah, they don't like stereotypes. But the Latinos at the
Home Depot. You know, everybody likes to go to, you know,
a home improvement store, whether it's Low's or Home Depot.
They all like going, right, I mean, like I said,
I like going. I like going and going down the
aisles that have all the do Dads in them. I
just want to go look for all the men are dying.
I just like looking at the sign and like, where
(23:55):
is the do Dad aisle? Because I'm sure there's something
that I don't have.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Every aisle is the d Yeah, but there's like.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
Things and stuff. It's crazy.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
And then when you go to like the Science Experiment
aisle where they have their tinctures and there I don't know,
like their cak and the glue and glue guns and
blue guns.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Are we still talking about home?
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (24:16):
Yes, I don't know. There's like things that you can
do with it.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
There's stuff that's dangerous probably if you got it in
your eyes, and if you got it you can do
stuff with it.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
I just like going and I'm like, there are so
many things here. I am it's amazing. I like going
to the Home Depot and my Chris goes with me.
He goes and he's like, there's a couple things I
want to go. Maybe i'll look.
Speaker 4 (24:34):
Around, you know. And I'm like, let's look at all
the things. And then I tell him did you know
that they have this? And he's like, yes, I know.
I'm a man.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
I know these things for several years now. When I
walk by the plywood and the lumber and all that,
and I'm like, man, that price.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Of wood, right, I didn't even know what the price
of wood was before because I don't build stuff regularly.
But I look at it now, I'm like, whoa, that's crazy.
But there's just all kinds of things fun things to
look at, right that, and like great inventions that you
you think, why did I think of this? This is
a great idea, This is a great product. And then
(25:11):
what I do is I take like a photo of
it like a psycho and I'm like, that's a great idea.
Just because I want to remember how good of an
idea it is, I'll take a picture of it.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Does anybody else do that?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Me? No, I don't know. But and I like the
way it smells in there because it smells like wood.
Shavings and paint, and I love that. We love the
smell of gas.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
Yes, can we run that club again?
Speaker 2 (25:30):
I have something for that.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Okay, Yeah, go ahead with the home the Latinos and
Home Depot please, Hank Johnson.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
You know, first they came for the Latinos outside of
the home depots. I don't think the TV trying to
get work audience is hearing, but that they could feed
their families.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
We're playing the home depot.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Game and I didn't say anything about it because I'm
not a Latino at the home depot.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
That's like an ad. I mean that is an ad.
I mean, I like you, where can you go to.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Find Latinos at the home Depot? And it's just Hank
Johnson for Home Depot.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Man. That is like such an identifying riff, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Though?
Speaker 4 (26:28):
Yeah, it's by the way.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
I asked Rock, I said, can you write a story
about Latinos at home Depot?
Speaker 4 (26:37):
I did? Yeah? Are you ready?
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Do we need this again?
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (26:43):
We're gonna need it.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
The Home Depot on Caesar Chavez Boulevard buzzed under the
Texas sun. It's parking lot, a mosaic pickup trucks, low
riders and minivans, blasting everything from bad Bunny to classic Tehana.
It was Saturday morning, and the store was a second
home for half the neighborhood. Among the aisles of lumber
and paint cans, three Latinos Javier, Marisol and Diego crossed paths,
(27:12):
each on their own mission, but bound by the unspoken
rhythm of community. Javier, a wiry contractor in his forties
with a faded astro cap, pushed a flatbag carp piled
highway two by fours and dryball. He'd been up since
five am bidding on a remodel job in East Austin, Mirah.
I'm telling you, these jennifications got everyone wanting ship lap.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
He grumbled to his cousin Diego.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Who trailed behind with a back of concrete mix slung
over his shoulder. Diego, twenty five and fresh off a
landscaping gig, laughed.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
Ship lap Man two shiplap elatis.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
I said that in the seventies, call it vintage charged double.
Javier dropped the tool corral, eying a new de Walt drill.
If I win this bid, I'm upgrading these clients. Went
ardis in by my wallet screaming bargain Diego smirt, tossing
a roll of painters the tape under the cart.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
Oh it goes on.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Marisol navigated the garden center, her toddler Sophia, giggling in
the cart.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
I mean it goes on. It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
At Home Depot, an employe named Carlos spotted her puzzled
look and strolled over orange apron swinging.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And there it is.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
The more mentions of Latinos at Home Depot.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Latinos at Home Depot courtesy of Hank Johnson. By the way,
this song on this song on the internet is called
Let's Do It.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
There's a word for the name of the song. And
someone uploaded an hour continuous mix of this.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Are you serious? That's actually amazing? A continuous one hour.
I think my kids made this the ring tone for
Papa because he worked at home Depot for a while.
My stepdaddy when he retired, he got he got bored
to death on day two of retirement and he's like,
I'm gonna go work at home deepo because he's forklifts certified.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Which why is that? Is that a big thing with
you dudes? Is that a big thing? Steve forklifts are notification.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I don't think so that would me.
Speaker 4 (29:03):
Okay, maybe Steve dj fun uncles like an outlier here.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Yeah, I mean you have to be able to operate
large equipment, right, so you need some sort of service.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Apparently gen Z thinks that's a measure of a man
is whether or not you can drive a forklift.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
But and he, you know fair Yeah, so so he
and he he liked home depot, he liked working there,
and then he got bored and he wanted to change
it up because you know, he had all the seniority
going in there.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
But I think that was his ring tone for a while.
Papa's ring tone was guy that.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Actually wrote that. Can you imagine me the dude that
wrote that.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
It's very simple. It's almost like Peter Gunn. It's this
very simple little guitar line.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
That's all it is.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
How do we get on that subject? I have no
idea anyway? Okay, So yeah, Hank Johnson, damn you, Hank Johnson.
At least we're not talking about guam tipping over, rolling
over in the ocean like an iceberg or something.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Good.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
Heavens, that is Democrats for you. It's Democrats that's so,
that's that's you know, that's one. It is. Thanks for
