Episode Transcript

(00:00):
I just had to listen to itone more time. I don't am I
being trolled? Is the code?Is it? Is it just more bs?
And he just didn't get a didn'tget a chance to slip in a
bo Biden's story. I don't Ihonestly, I don't know. I don't

(00:23):
know what's going on, and Idon't understand how. One of the things
that irks me so much about ourpolitical class is the disingenuous crap. Right,
So they're like, oh, youknow, oh wow, you have

(00:45):
oh you work at the such andsuch place. Well, I have this
story that only kind of little inone spot relates allowed me to sit here
and explain to you exactly how we're, you know, basically brothers from another
mother, and uh, you know, it's one of the things he does,
and it's one of the things thatpoliticians do. That being said,

(01:11):
I don't understand some of these connections. So where what kind of weird division
of visitation childhood did Joe Biden growup in? Right, Because this dude
was he was one week he's he'sbasically Puerto Rican. Then he's at the

(01:34):
pool, remember, which which wasrun by corn corn whatever corn pop tough
dude, watch out. And yesterdayhe's sitting there and he's talking about how,
hey, you know, one ofthe one of the really cool things
about me, I'm Greek and stuff. Yeah, I don't know what the

(01:56):
hell's going on. In fact,I retweeted the video. Go see it
at Casey on the radio. Butit's like this this stuff. Look,
when you're a president, or youserve in the Senate as long as Joe
did, and obviously we're vice president, you're probably going to have more cultural
experience than the average American, right, just because you know, he's send
you all over the place doing stuff. And that's fine, but it's it's

(02:21):
when you're trying to make those right, when you're trying to make those soft
connections, right, feel like it'sit. You know, it came before
all of this and and so it'syou got a special place in my heart.
That's that's this dude. That's thisguy's jam. He's just really bad
at it. Like this would belike this would be like as if Ross.

(02:44):
I don't mean to pick on you, but you are a you are
a pure test subject, right becauseyou've never left the United States, right,
other than alien abduction or something Idon't know, there's no point,
okay, yeah, well yeah,so so that's him confirming, but that's
all also him dug into this position. What if I asked you or let's

(03:08):
say you seezepower. And also youhave to go into these individual little meetups
with these various different stakeholders as presidentsdo, right, And I'll make it
akin to the Friday parties when Iwas in Santa Barbara. You know,
as a college student, you're alwayslooking for a good deal, right,

(03:31):
So me and my roommates figured outand we weren't the only ones that if
you go over to where the SantaBarbara Mission is, you know the old
Spanish mission there, there is ahuge, huge park out there, and
for like two thirds of the year, each weekend is a different heritage party,

(03:54):
right, so you have like Germanheritage, Hungarian heritage, Irish heritage,
and and and and when I sayparty, basically it was it was
like a cheap pop up bar wherethe food options would change in a couple
of the primary pilsners would as well, but it was really inexpensive. And

(04:17):
so me and my me and myboys we go down there because we could.
It was you know, half theprice of drinking on State Street.
And you know, you get out, you see people that aren't in your
little, your little, your littleuniversity bubble there, right, and you're
like, ah, oh, it'sHungarian appreciation. There's some hot Hungarian women,

(04:38):
right, because you remember we're nineteentwenty year old college kids. Oh
yeah, I know you're doing themath on the ID. Don't worry about
it. Yeah, And I feellike that's what Joe Biden rolls in,
but he does so only with thebasist of knowledge. So it would be
it would be as though Ross wasdoing all foreign relations based only on what
he's learned at Epcot. Is prettymuch all you need to know, is

(05:00):
it. Yeah, it's fine.You don't think people when you interact with
them and you fundamentally now such ashallow observation of their heritage. Don't think
you're really their guy. You don't. No, I think spotlight's like the
the most amazing parts of the heritage. All right, Like some G twenty
meeting and I'm going to Japan,I'm like, man, ninjas are amazing.

(05:23):
And they're like, thank you,thank you for recognizing that ninjas are
amazing. And they're like don't evenget me started on dragons. And they're
like, dude likes dragons too,I'd vote for him. I'm like,
you can't vote for me. I'mnot because you sees power, right,
But yeah, and also he hasa dragon, right. I've heard that
if you have dragons, it's veryhard to usurp you as well, which
is weird because, by the way, we have another story with dragons in

(05:45):
it today, so it's dragon Friday, I guess. So all right,
So hypothetically, man, if youwanted to, you wanted to beat box
with the let's say the British community, right, what's or let's go to
the Scottish community, right? Allright? So you're theres is So good?
Is it? I love train spotting, guys. I've seen train spotting

(06:08):
like thirty times. Okay, sogood? You see how is he all
uncomfortable this freedom? See? Becauseyou're like, is this Scottish priston?
Ye're like, this is what youprobably hear in the pubs in Edinburgh all
day anyway, and it's just annoyingto you. But no, no,
you're the leader of the free world. So Joe's sitting there, he's at
the wedding. I don't know.If it was big, I don't know,
if it was fat, I guessit was Greek, I don't know.

(06:33):
And then he also had a speakingevent and he was talking about,
Hey, you know, I'm abig fan of the uh Greek popular big
fan of the Greek. And thenI thought, well, maybe it's code
and I'll let you look it up. But I don't know, or he's
just insane. So AnyWho, that'swhere we started morning, me getting caught

(06:57):
just watching this this city it ramble. But that's not where we'll end up.
Coming up on the show, PeteCalendar will join us. Jimmy Kimmel's
got some thoughts on Japan. We'llhear from the the folks on the view,
and man, they're gonna do thisthing. I'm telling you, they're
gonna do this thing and you knowwhat, and it might just blow up

(07:18):
so big in their face, butwe got to talk about it Lizzo on
the show, not actually but Lizzostory. It's busy. It's it's just
gonna be a busy Friday. Andthen Pete Calendar will chat with us at
eight fifteen. So what are youwaiting for? Stick around? It is
the case O Day, Ninja approvedand Dragon approved radio program. Hang on,

(07:45):
You're right, though, Biden islike he's like Michael Scott from the
office with the note cards on hishead. Yes, great, fantastic.
It's like the annoying I love.Look, I'm a I'm a perpetual tourist,
man, I love I love learning, going places, and long ago
I came to terms with something andit's not just something that Americans do,

(08:09):
but it is something I have witnesseda lot of Americans do, probably because
they feel comfortable doing it around mebecause I'm an American, so they were
not hindered in whatever the thing is. And so the thing, it can
be different in every country, butthe thing is the thing that a tour

(08:31):
is like one of the first thingsthat tourists learns and then does so aggressively
and over the top that it startsto annoy the locals rather than make them
feel like you care about their culture. Don't worry, this is not some
woke diatribe. This is just thisis my general distaste for the way that
people are self centered pieces of garbageman. So, but to have it

(08:56):
done in a gussied up pandury wayis absolutely amazing. But then Ross is
Ross again. Never been to Japan. Maybe I'm the one missing here.
He's telling me about the Dragonshishi sushi. Yeah, oh yeah it is.
You don't have eaten sushi over there. The Godzilla is amazing. Oh,
I mean the first time you encounteredthe Godzilla, You're like, this should

(09:20):
be a great example right here ofthe kind of an extreme version of what
I'm talking about. I suspect ifI was visiting Tokyo from a safe distance
watching Godzilla work, that's that storytime when you get back, probably some
TikTok So. Yeah, it's differentfor me, Tokyo if you live there,

(09:43):
it's what's different for me because alsoI'm in the media. Oh all
right, yes, that's right.From what we learned the other day.
You don't have to stand in lineto watch Godzilla decimate Tokyo. So good
for you. Let me tell youabout the yakuza. Oh yeah, Scar,
talk about but respect him him.Uh, mister mister Ross, go

(10:05):
ahead and expand and uh tell usall you know, tell us what is
there? Yeah? Still I shouldn'tgo. I'm very busy here. There
you go, it's Friday. You'renot really but my knowledge of Japan is
just Ross is just literally rushing hispowdered wig. That's what he does for

(10:26):
the first hour of the show allweek since he didn't get to Drury Duty.
Very sad actually, uh anyway,I just realized. I just realized
something too. Man, You've gotone, two, three, He's he's
doing like whirlwind tour stuff. Justlook at his travel schedule. He gets
to be Portuguese today. What what? Maybe that's what it is, right,

(10:52):
Maybe that's how they entertain him.They're like, sir, good morning,
it's Portuguese, right, And he'sout there with his Christopher Columbus stuff,
and and I understand, I understand. I just want you to remember
who funded the trip, don't callme haters. And then, uh,
I'm trying to think what rudimentary thingsabout Portuguese culture, Like it's just him

(11:16):
with dessert wine and and they dohave a si I can't remember the name
of the sausage, for freaking amazing, but that that and then that's your
deep dive. And it's just himin a douchey Columbus hat, drinking dessert
wine, talking about how he grewup near the Portuguese neighborhood and uh,

(11:37):
and then you know, insert whichof the two hometowns he lays claimed to
you got options, you mention twentythree and meter results. I think unlike
most people who would look at theirsand then they would see, you know,
forty percent, thirty percent, maybefifty percent, you know, big

(11:58):
chunks somewhere, and that we're more. And then you get down to that
slice and dice at the end whereyou're like, you know one, you
know, two percent or less kindof stuff. And I feel like that's
where his excitement would lie. Rememberwhen Barack Obama when he went to Ireland
and they're like, ah, you'reObama, He's Irish, right, that
was the whole thing, and thatirritated a lot of Irish people. But

(12:22):
the reality is, I think thatthey genealogically like they were able to trace
part of his family too there,so you know whatever. But the percentage
was very low, in the sameway that Ross is more Native American than
Elizabeth Warren but not really. Butthe numbers, the numbers hold up because

(12:43):
remember she was she was not justaverage, she was below average, which
yeah, and then she posted itlike a win, and she posted it
like a wind see see it's there. Well yeah, so I'm assuming that's
how they keep him even entertained today. So pretend we're playing pretend today.

(13:09):
So but but you have to doso and only do so in the most
stereotypical way. All right, I'mnot see this is the problem. Then
I get this email. Ross willexplain why this is not a Japanese thing,
per se. He goes, hero, what about the Kumata. This

(13:31):
is a man who's fallen for thelies of Hollywood right here ross the Kumata.
As we know from Frank Dukes whofought all one thy thirty two rounds
of what it would be under hismath, that was not fought in Japan.
It was not It was put onby the Kokaru Kai, which is
the Black Dragon Fighting Society in China. And that's the one in the movie.

(13:58):
The actual one that Duke's talks aboutgoing to was what in the Caribe.
He's in the Caribbean, hmmm,And he said the tournament was done
on the rooftops, this secret tournamentthat you have to be invited to,
yeah, be part of the BlackDragon Fighting Society. And it was a
round robin, round robin, yepon rooftops in the Caribbean. I mean,

(14:22):
if there's one place you want tospend time in the Caribbean, it's
on a rooftop with the sun beatingdown on you, fighting to the death.
Maybe so yeah, so it wasit Hollywood lied or Frank Duke's We
don't know. Wh what is Bidengoing to the Caribbean? Dude? If

(14:45):
he does a rosta hat, I'mgonna lose it. What he had the
podium with like a roster bana banaYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
oh man, how great would thatbe? It is just you can imagine
just the props department, because he'sgoing to show up in the blue suit.
He's gonna room over and you're like, all right, let's see,
you're meeting with the Jamaican Prime minister. Here's a hat. My son.

(15:11):
I don't wear the hat just tohold the hat anyway. What my son
was also a Buffalo soldier. Ah, we can do this for every country.
Pick one, go ahead, phonenumber eight eight eight nine three four
seven eight seven four. I'm followingit, not because I think he'll ever

(15:31):
come home to us, but justbecause I'm interested on all of the Stefan
Digs stuff. Ross. Did yousee that all right? Because there was
a little people were trying to figureout exactly how the process went, and
according to Chris Simms, who isa former quarterback obviously but analysts there for

(15:52):
the NFL network behind the scenes,he said was pretty simple. Diggs was
told by the team that he couldhe could talk about trades with any team
except one Kansas City. So reallyhim wunning out. I know some of
his people were trying to downplay alittle, but uh, they basically said,

(16:14):
hey, if you're unhappy, godo whatever you're gonna do, just
you can't talk to that guy.Yeah, and they sent him in Texas
for one year. Yeah. Idon't know if you saw the details on
that. He's only going to bein Texas under contract for one year and
then he's a free agent. It'sinteresting. So they got a second round
pick for like a one year rental. Yeah, yeah, so yeah,
look, yeah, I saw peoplethat were doing the math on this,

(16:36):
But yeah, you did pay himan obscene amount of money. But for
three years he was elite top three, top five receiver in the NFL.
So if you paid him average numberthree and he averaged number three, then
go out and get what you want. Yeah, good for digging. I
mean he's gonna get paid. Andthe rumor is, like, the theory
is he's gonna end up playing inDallas with his brother at the age of

(16:59):
thirty two. The the the theguy who with the tender account, that
guy that would be the one,Yes, that one. Okay, I'll
let you look that up. Y'allwant to dive into that. A little
awkward. Also weird that people don'tunderstand, uh, when you post stuff

(17:19):
on Twitter that it's public. Butoh, we're not going to revisit that.
Hey, you want to hear someyou want some some other predictions.
Let me do this now because Iwant to mock at the rest of the
show. So what is that?What this dude got one thing right once,

(17:42):
like two years ago, and nowthey do a story about him every
year. All right, So thisis this is complete nutter hogwash. It's
nostradamis of our time. But uh, it does captivate a lot of people
online. So this is that dudewho claims to be the time traveler.
Dude, I don't know if you'refamiliar. And he popped out and said,

(18:06):
hey, we're gonna make a bunchof predictions and then like one of
them he got right. So nowwhenever he post stuff on Reddit, everyone
and then journalists write stories. SoI don't know if it's going to be
right, but I got to tellhim I appreciate the creativity and these uh
this, these series were among thosethat were initially predicted. Right, So

(18:27):
not just going to him going whatwhat else is new? This is part
of a calendar that he put togetherthat I saw people slicing and dicing,
and I'm like, all right,well, let's see what's going on in
twenty twenty four. How are youfeeling hopeful about the about twenty twenty four?
You think this is the year youget stuff done, maybe make some

(18:51):
transitions, some changes in life.Maybe the kids are, you know,
going to be off to college.Things are changing. Ross twenty twenty four,
still positive on the years. Ohlook, ye yeah, Rosscott gutters.
He's got a roof now. Andokay, you did some other stuff
I can't remember, but I'm sureyou're happy. And uh you got that

(19:11):
going, got myself a gold katana. Pretty cool anyway, Well, enjoy
till May twenty seventh, but youknow that's over a month away, so
lots of shadow practicing with your katanaor something. I don't know, because

(19:38):
a second civil war will begin inthe US when Texas secedes from the rest
of the country. Other countries maytake that one. They would obviously,
and then world War three is amongus, you know. The And I'm
just pointing this out. I'm notgoing full deep dark conspiracy on you,
but throwing around terms like world Warthree, that's how would you even get

(20:03):
there? Anthony blinking? Yes,Indeed, we did talk about the NATO
summit and Ukraine, and we'll talkabout it much in much greater detail in
the coming days in Brussol Brussels duringthe NATO Foreign Ministers meeting. As the
Allied stated in Vilnius, Ukraine willbe member of NATO. That quoted there.

(20:30):
The issue is having a good andclear roadmap to reach this conclusion,
and I believe that the NATO Summitfor the seventy fifth anniversary will indeed be
highly focused and quite concretely as tohow we can establish this roadmap. All

(20:56):
right, So it doesn't sound veryexciting unless you realize that if it's an
Article five, which it's expected tobe inclusion of Ukraine without some other stated
conditions that I haven't seen. Ittethers responsibility to other NATO members for some

(21:18):
of or all of Ukraine's security concerns. So that's the play way of saying
it kind of ob but would obligatethe US to defend Ukraine against Russia.
So I don't know, as timetraveler, do crazy even with maybe we
don't have the Texas secession but worldWar three? How do you feel if

(21:41):
you're that dude in the video yesterdaywho was getting lectured by some idiot sophomore
on university campus, sophomore because hewore a shirt that said undefeated two time
World War winner USA, right,and she was losing her mind, like,

(22:02):
your shirt's in peril? Bro,I mean, are so hard?
Yes? I mean we may needFrankly, you know what, you know
what if we're gonna do this thingand they do let them all, right,
Biden's out, pat Riley's in,right, you need leadership three pat

(22:25):
Paty over Phil Jackson. Okay,So but understand my thinking on this,
because yes, Phil Jackson would seemlogical as he did it in two different
cities. The difference is pat Rileyliterally owns the trademark to three peat,
So if we want to use itand not get sued. You know,
our company is about not getting suedright for copyright infringement, so that we

(22:45):
send out these little advisories. Ifhe's president, right, he wouldn't have
standing to feel violated, the sameway like Trump had a brand that was
copyright a bullet However, once hebecame president and then you can make all
the shirts you wanted with his facesuperimposed on a cheetoh, he couldn't do
anything about it. So he hadpat Riley and their trademark owner. He's

(23:10):
still alive. Phil is Phil Jacksonalive. I don't think it's I hate
I hate. He's still a Yeah. I just want to make sure I
hate this part of talk radio wherewe've inadvertently killed people over the years.
Who was it Jim Brewer, right, that's the one I remember first were
we say Jim Burwer was dead?No way that yeah? Yeah, yeah,

(23:30):
yeah? You said a stand upspecial? I you and I went
to a Jim Brewer special or JimBrewer stand up right? I do not
recall that wasn't that you mean coordal, No, that wasn't Jim Brewer that
was who was that? Remember wewent to we went to Good Nights,
you know it was it wasn't GoatBoy. It wasn't goat Boy. But
anyway, yeah, I remember onthe on the radio that yeah, no

(23:53):
Phil Jackson. Well here's the deal, Phil Jackson and yeah, pat Riley
or roughly the same age. They'rethree years younger than Biden. So yeah,
I think either one's probably a winif we're gonna do this thing compared

(24:14):
to current occupant. Although if youwant, if you want a basketball coach
leading you into you know, intocivil conflict, it's a shame that it
won't be a certain guy from Indiana, because, let me tell you he

(24:38):
was. He had the good quotes, he had the distance, the chair
toss record, I believe among Done coaches, and lord knows, we
got enough audio and fun stuff inthe system. But he didn't have a
three peat. Bobby Knight was good, didn't have a three peat. So

(25:02):
we're gonna have to select from thosetwo, all right. They don't put
that comedy who's running the Dallas Mavericksin there. Oh, every time there's
his things that he's got to weighin on it and say why don't you
just weigh in on going and playingbasketball bro or coaching it. See,
I'm not even telling you to shutup and dribble. I'm telling you to
shut up and watch people dribble andthen critique them. So either one of

(25:25):
those guys be fine. But yeah, so that's prediction number one, and
that's the one I guess arguably I'mmost concerned about. Although the next one,
for the second to next one,because this is gonna be amazing,
we'll hit a little closer to home. In fact, I'll give you the
rest of the rundown here on thislist, and there will be dragons,

(25:51):
cause why not. We'll get intothat much more coming up CaCO Day Radio
program. We're just checking out predictionsfrom this time. I'm traveler dude.
So yeah, he's nice, he'snot, or he's time traveler. I
don't know. He got a volcaniccorruption in Indonesia, correct, I guess
I went back and looked it up. But it was but I but then

(26:17):
also, and I saw somebody pointthis out that predicting a volcano will erupt
or partially erupt in Indonesia's like predictingit will snow in Colorado. Within a
year or so. I don't knowdo the math, but I think it's
fun, all right, So ifyou're having a chill year, just know
May twenty seventh, we're worth threekicks off, so h oh, and

(26:37):
nukes will be used. I believein he is what he said in the
prediction. So and then I'm sittinghere and I'm my os guys alone,
and then I see that we're we'redoing the Ukraine and NATO things. So
I don't know, maybe maybe,but even if that doesn't get you,
June fourth, the world we'll meetthe first ever human chimp hybrid. The

(27:10):
hybrid will appear more like the monkeys, however, will have human like communication
skills. So I don't know,sounds like a sound like a documentary I
watched once. Don't think it wentwell, but you decide now. July

(27:33):
twenty fourth. I remember as akid, this was this is this is
one of the things like for thoseof you who are older than Ross and
I and you were more cold warkids, right and the whole like sit
down class. Here's a video ofa turtle explaining how you need to duck

(27:53):
and cover if the new kids theschool, right and you're just like,
what are we doing? This isterrified? Why? I mean, they
literally indoctrinate you early on that Hey, you know that Yellowstone place, it's
so cool. Huh, Yeah,that's a volcano. If it erupts,
you're all dead. Your friends overon the other side of the mountain are
incinerated. Most of you are dead. And if you get out towards Devil's

(28:15):
Tower, probably will take you yearsto die, but it'll get you.
As far as the rest of theUS and Canada, the vast majority two
thirds would be covered in ash.However, on the upside, in the
predictions, the eruption of the Yellowstonesuper volcano creates a canyon four times larger

(28:37):
than the Grand Canyon, which,you know what, there's there's some there's
a pecking order, and it's there'sbeef among the Western states about who's the
most awesome, right, And I'lltell you one of the up most up

(29:03):
up in the States is Arizona.And I didn't even have a problem with
Arizona. But like, if you'rea Wyoming guy who obviously is the best,
right, that's not even a perdis guy. We got Yellowstone,
we got the Tetons, We've successfullykept most Californians out. I mean,

(29:26):
what more do you want? Butman, you're like, oh yeah,
Yellowstone this, or wow, theTeeton Mountains or even if you've seen him
in pictures a thousand times, it'sthe first time you get next to him,
you feel like you've never seen himbefore. They're that amazing. And
then and then some guy from Arizonais probably drunk. Go but what about

(29:47):
the Grand Canyon? Right? Andthat's all they got. That's it.
So you know I got. IfWyomy wants to get a canyon four times
larger, boom, what do youget? You got nothing? Absolutely nothing.
So I'm sorry that you know,most of the people in the state

(30:08):
I grew up but will die.But dragon rights baby, all right,
and uh let's see here, Rosshe terrified of World War three, human
chimp hybrid or Yellowstone supervolcano. Youprobably won't die. So I don't know
if that's going to be enough.But if that isn't enough to ruin your

(30:30):
twenty twenty four August fifteenth, therebe dragons. Yeah, yeah, So
dragons are discovered in the Rocky Mountains, probably released by the Yellowstone super volcano.
So now Wyoming not only has thethe most awesomest canyon, but it's

(30:52):
where dragons come out of. Soagain suck at Arizona. And then one
month to the day after ash hasdescended upon Ross's new roof. Dragons are
a constant problem. September fifteenth,the prediction will be for the first ever

(31:14):
hypercane. Do you all know whata hypercane is? I don't think this
is natural term. We're gonna checkwith the ray staging because it sounds like
a douchey term that some reporters makeup for. Whoa If we don't,
we don't get rid of all thecars. Next year it'll be rocks being
thrown from the ocean, which isan actual story somebody wrote and we clowned

(31:37):
on and dragons and hypercanes, somaybe that's what this is about. A
hypercane is described as a hurricane withover five hundred mile per hour wind speeds,
which is predicted to hit the southernand middle US East coast. So
US that sucks, man, Imean, this is all bad news,

(32:02):
but you yeah, positive right thebrace that would be. So the dude
is saying nothing is going to comefrom the eclipse on Monday. Nope,
not on the list, so we'reclear for that. It's good. Oh
oh, and that's why everyone's okay. That's the other reason people are decided

(32:24):
because the predictions of the quote unquotetime Traveler coincide with predictions made by Boba
Vinga Bobavanga who was the blind mysticdude and stick a camera in his face.
He'd been dead for like thirty yearsof she or excuse me, she,
excuse me. I had to haveyou along. I was telling Ross

(32:45):
off the air, I eat weirdthings in the morning when you just started
doing morning radio traditional what are traditionalbreakfast foods? Breakdown? So have I
ever eaten canna be feroni cold infront of Ross? Maybe? Did he

(33:05):
give me a weird look? Maybe? But you do what you gotta do.
That's how it goes. So yeah, So I did a taco bucket
thing, all right. So someMexican restaurants do this where you can get
like instead of just storing the tacosor something, you can order like the
family thing, right, And soit's like a taco bucket and so it
has like, you know, tenten I it's got ten corn tortillas in

(33:30):
there, and they're hot and theyput them a little thing and then they
have the cilantro and the onions chopped, and then you pick your protein and
you know, so how you'd ordera taco, but it just comes a
little bucket and you know, forthe fam. For me though, it's
great because I can I'll just I'lleat that thing all week, and I

(33:51):
mean some this morning. So hwith the fact that I'm eating al pastor
this morning, I believe that makesme Mexican raw. Can you check the
Joe Biden chart. I'm not surehow this works. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, so yeah,no, it looks like looks like I
president of Mexico now, so orat least the ambassador. It's very good.

(34:16):
We'll say that. Good out paststores, very good. You can
find it. What's the basque onethe barrier the res that's a little spicy
with the beef. I like thepastor with the pork. But I go
either way. But so I'm eitherin charge of the Pyrenees Mountains or Mexico.

(34:37):
All right, got that out ofthe way real quick. One to
add something on the last story,with the time, with the predictions and
all that stupid stuff. I reallyscrewed up on the dragons. Not only
are they from the rocky mountains,so you know, will there are dragons

(34:58):
right, Suck it, China.Yeah, they'll be able to talk according
to the prediction. Does that changethings? Do you think would you rather
be faced with a talking dragon ora non talking dragon if you had to
choose, ross you want one youcan debate or I mean, it'll still

(35:22):
have all the dragon skills, right, It breathes fire, it's way bigger
than you. It's arm, youknow, basically, it's skin is armor.
You have to deal with all that. But do you want it to
be able to talk to you?See? That's what that is where my
head's at. But then I'm remindedof how it worked out for Pete.

(35:44):
Remember how it worked out for Pete? And he got to eat delicious apples
flame roasted and then a tray youit worked out for a tray you?
Does anybody get that reference? Ohno, that's right, Russ. You
weren't a fan of that never endingstory, were you? That wasn't That

(36:04):
wasn't your gym. But they hada luck dragon in there so and he
talked and so like. So,if if you take certain data points,
you think a talking dragon might bea nicer dragon, but then Smaug,
which now I know Ross didn't seethat because we're into uh, Lord of
the Ring stuff. But yeah,so I don't know, but I felt

(36:28):
bad forgetting to mention that that hepredicts they'll be talking dragons, you know,
be funny too. I've thought aboutthis, right, like, because
they have the chimp earlier, sothat's gonna talk probably, and then the
dragons like do you think that?Do you will? We live to see

(36:52):
a day when the moon bats tryto cancel a non human for some theme.
They said, how does that playout? Because I don't know how
the diversity boxes get checked? Right, So if you're if you're some chimera,
uh you know, chimp thing,or you're a dragon, right,

(37:15):
I know you guys, like,what the hell's going on this? Mort
just hear me out right, Andlet's stick with the primate thing. Right.
So, let's say that they getsome wired up brain chip up whatever,
and it's more than cocoa with thesign language. You remember the gorilla,
right, Let's say you actually getone of these primates to talk and

(37:37):
we all accept that it's talking,but it has wrong thoughts. How do
you come to terms with that man. These are the These are the weird
war games that I flash through myhead when I look at these stories,
because we have we have such acollection of uh A, non intellectual,

(38:00):
emotionally driven psychopaths, reactionary uh tothe to the power of five, to
everything going on around them. Andif some dragons like I'm a boy right,
yeah, Like what, oh,well, there's only boy dragons or
girl dragon Like do you cancel thedragon? I'm here for it. And

(38:22):
on the on the primate front,I mean, what if what if they're
interviewing the primate and the primate sayssomething that's offensive, Like I'm not even
joking here in the side, likeI don't think it's gould be a dragon,

(38:42):
But I'm not even joking in thesense that people already put studies out
claiming to be able to delineate whatanimals are thinking, right, and they
But we have the stupid study withthe dogs, like, hey, I
don't know if you know, butdogs they like when you say stuff,

(39:04):
they like they know the word,and then they like it when you say
it before they see it. Pavlovsaid something about this, but that was
an actual study. But I've seenother studies where they're like, dogs are
racist? Dogs are this? Whatif you actually, all right, what
if you get one of them wiredup and all of a sudden he's a
David Duke. I don't know.It's interesting and interpreting what exactly animals mean

(39:34):
and then doing it through human characteristicsis something that our current crop of journalists
do every day. And I willexplain to you exactly the best example,
because all of you think I'm crazy, but I'm not. And here's why.
Here is the animals who have beeninterpreted, explained, and then explained

(39:59):
to humans by grown human adults,right, professionals. Gay penguins, Right,
they created a whole narrative for twopenguins who hung out. They're always

(40:20):
next to each other. They weren'tout looking for the ladies. They did
steal an egg once, right,and they wrote a whole like gay fan
fiction thing at that zoo in wasit London with the two penguins somewhere in
the UK? Then we had onehere too, right, So they've already

(40:43):
claimed that they understand the longings,desires and decisions that these penguins have made.
So what happens? What happens whenanimals were able to more accurately predict
what it is the animals trying tosay up to and including I guess the

(41:04):
you know, the weird sci fistuff here. What happens when animals have
wrong think? Is that? Oris that too? Is that too much
for a Friday? Right? BecauseI just I can't wait for it.
I can't wait for a dolphin tobe able to communicate but also think that,

(41:30):
uh and then insert a controversial topic, right and just have thoughts on
it because it's a dolphin. Idon't know, all right, are you
ready for this? Uh? Sodolphins because they know they always start dolphins
and octopus in there as super smart. Okay, fine, so they get
to they get to communicate, anda dolphins like, ah, I've never

(41:52):
seen a floating continent of plastic andI'm a dolphin, right, I've been
everywhere. And then do you canceledthe dolphin? I don't know how it
works, but my god, Iwant it to be a thing. I
can't wait. So, yeah,a little Rambley Friday. But I thought
it's a good discussion starter. Soif you want to take part eight eight

(42:15):
eight nine three four seven eight sevenfour that's how you make that happen all
of that. One of the listeners, Uh, oh, welcome to the
Mexican community. Ariva la raza.I will not chant that, sir,
but now you have it on tape, so there you go. All right,

(42:38):
there you get this audio. Allright, let me do this so
CNN, Members of Congress, ladieson the View, you name it.
If anybody is a Democrat, allof a sudden, they have just not

(42:59):
be because others, but all ontheir own arrived at this point where they
feel that they have to have adiscussion about Sonya Soto mayor. And this
is brutal man and frankly, Ihope she screws with them. So we'll

(43:20):
bring you up to speed. Wegot audio. We'll do it next CaCO
Day radio program. I saw yesterdaythey're making a Matrix five. Really really,
I was trying to remember and Iknow that I watched the Fourth Matrix.
I know for a fact that Iwatched it. I could I don't

(43:43):
know that I remember anything in theFourth Matrix movie. So now we're gonna
do a fifth. I mean,this is this is like Indiana Jones stuff.
But yeah, I saw a reportyesterday saying that all right, So
the Matrix ninety nine, the Matrixreloaded three revolutions. Three were they released

(44:07):
in the same year? I guessthey were, weren't they? And the
latest one was Resurrections. I thoughtit was Revelations. Okay, all right,
well that's a little it's not asbad because I thought, well,
it was the last one named Revelation. And then obviously you get a reference
to the last book of the Bible, and how can you make a fifth?

(44:28):
But they're working on a fifth apparently. So, but that's not why
we're here. In the world ofAI. Before they get into the murderous
phase, there is some there issome significant entertainment afoot, like what happened
in the state of Washington. Allright, so Washington State it's decided to

(44:52):
integrate AI into their lottery. Now, hold on, it's not as much
on the number side, more onthe marketing side. So the way it
worked is this, if you wentto the website and you wanted to play
the lottery because they have a digitalofferings like North Carolina, although they had

(45:15):
they seemingly have more. One ofthe fun things they were doing with AI
is when you went to the website, if you entered the lottery, they
would it would kind of interact withyou, like, what are you going
to do with the money? Right, rossa, what are you gonna do
if you win money in the lottery. I'll give you an example because we

(45:37):
already know what this is. What'sthe thing you're doing over in Chapel Hill
First that you've wanted to take abulldozer and I'm gonna knock down my buddy's
house, okay, and then inthe dead of night his family's out though,
right, yeah, no, I'llget him in the house. Then
I'll buy him a new house.Well, that dream right there was if

(46:00):
that had been communicated, what theAI would then do because it can see
you if you have a cam isit literally was then rendering photos of people
living out that dream, which,if you think about that's kind of cool,
right whatever you think at lotteries,like you know, people are you
know, what's what's the powerball ad? Like a billion two or something?

(46:23):
Right? I mean, I gotsome ideas. So if you go,
if you went to the website,you could you'd be like dah. And
so that's what this woman did.The fifty year old who talked about a
dream vacation swimming with sharks. TheAI then began to render a photo and

(46:49):
it's a doozy. It's a pictureof her in bikini bottoms, kneeling on
a bed, but like a bedthat's surrounded by like a huge aquarium with
sharks and stuff. Get ready toshoot a porno. It's a AI generated

(47:14):
a softcore porn photo of her.And that's not alone. Apparently the AI
was getting bored and then started gettinga little more creative, and it was
then that it came to the attentionof social media and Jason Rantz, who's
a radio host I know out inSeattle, and he's talking about it.

(47:37):
But yeah, So when the fiftyyear old mother who's from Tumwater, Washington,
I don't know where that is,visited the AI Washington Lottery website on
March thirtieth to take part in what'scalled a test drive a win which allowed
users to digitally throw a dart ata dartboard feature sturing dream vacations you can

(48:01):
pay for with the money you winin the lottery. And then she answered
a question about what her dream vacationwould look like. It was at that
point the AI then grabbed her photoa picture of her and the content,
so the vacation was swim with sharks. I think she's thinking cage diving in
Australia or something. I don't know. But instead it put her in like

(48:24):
a really bad casting couch under thec situation and rendered a picture of her
topless, and the pictures blurred inthe article, but it wasn't blurred.
That's it. And so now theState of Washington's trying to figure out what's

(48:46):
wrong with it's AI. I'm sorry, this is the funny part before we
get to the murder part. Thisis the funny part. But also I'm
very interested to see what it wouldrender for Ross's dream. Don't know.
Oh yeah, the irony too.And the image is all of the images

(49:06):
rendered made available. They're also watermarked with the Washington Lotteries logo, so
they're super official. In the image, the woman is seen sitting on a
bed in a bathing suit bottom notop, bare breast exposed. Background image
appears to show a bedroom inside ofan aquarium or an aquarium around it.

(49:27):
So, now, does the AIgenerate these images randomly or is it generating
the images based off something you're providingit? Well, it's so it's a
bit of both, right, becauseit has parameters, right, because they're
throwing the dark right, because Ican give an example. So when I
use the AI generator for avatars andstuff like, you have to upload like

(49:47):
ten or twenty photos and then it'llgenerate crazy weird photos. So I'm wondering
if if the user is like,hey, this is my dream, and
then the AI is like, well, upload some photos, and then you're
uploading some photos, but you accidentallyupload some naughty photos. Yeah, that
is not that is not what happened. Okay, that is not what happens.
So it's just random. So well, it's so her babe, she

(50:12):
throws the dart, but of courseit's a digital dart, so is it
random? I don't know. Andit's vacation. She then inputs that she
wants to on vacation swim with sharks, so she's adding that. So already
this thing has a parameter where it'sit knows its job is to then create
a picture of said vacation, whichwould be very simple, right, And

(50:36):
because she is doing this online,it has a webcam. It takes a
photo of you and renders it out. It actually renders it out in movements,
so if you have your cam work. So, yeah, it sounds
like some sort of program it.They should have programmed it. Hey,
no, poor an idiot. Welllook, some people. Look, some
people go on vacation to the Caribbeanor wherever this is, and you know

(50:59):
that is that is going to bepart of their vacation, right, you
run off for romantic Caribbean vacation withyour spouse. But it's not what you're
it's not the photo you're looking for. And she said swim with sharks.
She's very specific. So but it'slike, here's porn of you. So

(51:20):
I'm just wondering, like, beforethey turn this thing off or they're addressing
it, I just wonder what photowould have rendered for you, Like are
you naked burning Michael's house down orwith the bulldozer? I don't know,
man. But once again, AIlasting like less than twenty four hours before
they had to shut it off.Not quite. They're probably using the Microsoft

(51:45):
Hate AI. It doesn't say whichone they're using. So there you go.
Just craziness, all right, eighteight eight nine three four seven eight
seven four Oh man, all right, we're gonna have to we're gonna have
package yield of stuff because we've gotPete calendar coming up as well. Uh,
we got to freak out about birdflu or not and quite the legal

(52:09):
loophole up in Chicago. I'll tellyou about that, but first, Ken
Boon from the weather channels here,how you doing, sir. I'm doing
well. We've got a pretty niceday ahead for us today, with some
sunshine, maybe some clouds mixing inlate in the day, a bit breezy,
little on the cool side for us, as temperatures are below average,
but we'll improve on the temperatures wehead through the weekend. Temperatures into the

(52:30):
low sixties today, middle of upperthirties tonight. We do have a frost
advisory and effects Saturday morning. SunshineSaturday, breezy temperatures Tomorrow afternoon load of
mid sixties. By Sunday, though, things starting to feel a little bit
better, temperatures climbing into the uppersixties with the sunshine Sunday, and I
think we'll be in the load ofmid seventies with sunshine Monday. Okay,
all right, maybe you got aneasy job today. We left that,

(52:52):
so thank you again. We'll talkin the next hour. Appreciate it.
Alrighty, all right, this storyout of Chicago's wild and it is the
stereotypical pedo van right, creepy doowith the van free candy. Hey,
I lost my puppy kind of.I'll give you the details of this insanity

(53:14):
and societal breakdown next hang on.Definitely sports sports, sports, sports sports
going to be a big part ofpeople's mindset this weekend as we head back
to the final four, both women'sand men's and see State. So man,
I'm looking forward to our discussion andthen just everything that's going to be
going down. Dude, I lovehow much they're learning about the big man

(53:37):
there at State DJ right, RodenDurham literally has like NFL prospects maybe,
but he wasn't. He went,you know, focused on the basketball.
He's just a big dude. Doeslike you're getting a lot of those little
vibes and storylines that you got aboutthe eighty three team, right where a

(54:00):
lot of guys people didn't know whothen became beloved within the Raleigh community and
and beyond. But they're feeling itall. My friends are absolutely out of
their minds too, because they're allState fans, not all of them,
but the majority of them, andI don't they're probably drunk already. So

(54:21):
I'm gonna get that. We're gonnaget that into the weekend, perhaps even
into the championship game, and thenright into the Masters. I mean,
there's gonna be a good week man. But unfortunately we got to you know,
we gotta film news before then.So I told you about Washington,
the state of Washington. They're afailed AI lottery thing, or they're rendering

(54:44):
soft porn of people buying tickets playingthe games. In New York City,
they have implemented an AI chat botso that if you're a small business owner
who wants to make sure that you'recomplying with the three thousand or so i'm
sure local ordinances alone that businesses haveto remember, this is a city that's

(55:07):
getting ready to put pizza shops outof business, which is kind of an
iconic thing in New York City,So not good decisions. So what happens
if you're a small business owner.I want to know what the law is

(55:28):
so you can follow it well.Rather than talking to a human. New
York City introduced the my city chatbot, described as a one stop shop
to help small business owners navigate theplethora of laws and regulations in the Big
Apple. The problem is this,the AI is telling business owners to do

(55:51):
all sorts of illegal stuff right becauseit's sitting there going it literally is looking
at the laws that it was postto I guess provide, and it's like
coming up with its own workarounds loopholesand hey, you don't have to worry
about that. Including here's some examples. Let's see telling business owners they could

(56:16):
take a cut of their workers tipsthat always goes well. Also advising one
restaurant owner that cheese which had beenfound to have be covered in rat bites
still good to serve, just cutoff the rat BITEI part. So they

(56:38):
bring this to the attention of theCity of New York. They're like,
hey, if we did the thingsand there's a bunch more that you told
us and an actual human walked in, you'd shut us down. And,
in what I think is rather unexpectedresponse, New York basically said, yeah,

(56:59):
yeah, some of that's wrong,So don't listen to the wrong stuff,
just the right stuff, and we'rejust going to leave it. And
they're leaving it. So if youcall or call, if you interact with
the my City chatbot and you area business owner and you are asking it
literally for advice on things like howmuch you know, how much ventilation do

(57:22):
I have to have? How many? Uh? How? What's the pitch
of a ramp I want to be? You know, all these these questions
which are you can search them out. This bot's supposed to give you and
it tells you, Wow, whatyou want to do is you want to
do this thing, then you canloophole and you don't have to comply with
the the ADA or something. Evenif it's wrong, you then have to

(57:44):
know that it's wrong under penalty oflaw. Yeah. Everything, stupid,
man, That's what I wasn't evenexaggerating. And this, this right here
will make my point for me.Chicago men accused of trying to lure children
into a van in Cicero So ChicagoArea Police and Cicero say that a van

(58:10):
containing two men, Kenhy Edwards,sixty fifty five year old Craig McCauley,
pulled up to three children, tofourteen year olds and a thirteen year old
in an alley and beckoned to thekids saying, hey, come on over
here. In fact, why don'tyou get in the van. I've got

(58:32):
a quote famous athlete in the backof the van and he's got games.
Now, the van didn't have afamous athlete in it. It had his
accomplice who they say looks like anathlete, but they don't say which one.
So, but also there weren't gamesin the back of the van.

(58:52):
Police say there was a mattress,condoms, lubricant. I think there was
alcohol, yes, ice house,twisted tea, binoculars, restraints and Buchanans
Deluxe whiskey. Well, the problemis fourteen and thirteen, while their mouthy,

(59:15):
they're probably thankfully smart enough not toget in. They didn't get in
the van. They went and toldtheir parents. All right, so that's
a horrible story, but you know, nothing out of the ordinary. No,
it was then when police arrested themand they go to court. During
the initial appearance of the two men, the prosecutor based on the New Safety

(59:38):
Act, which was a new actin Chicago and Illinois, basically cash list
bond. You have to have areally good reason to hold somebody or even
monitor somebody. The prosecutor pointed outthat attempting to get the kids wasn't a
high enough burden or a high enoughcharge right to require electronic monitoring. And

(01:00:01):
the judge agreed. So the prosecutorslike, yeah, well, under the
Safety Act, they didn't actually theydidn't actually molest the kids. They tried
to. Maybe we don't know.Maybe uh, maybe they just wanted there's
matcher shopping and they wanted three moreopinions on that Partectar. This is I'm

(01:00:21):
telling you, I'm not even sayingthis would be sarcastic. This is the
level of mental gymnastics you have tohave, you know, doing live radio.
It is different, right, It'sdifferent from you know, the commentary
people or the teleprompter people. You'reyou're you're peeling an onion. You're if

(01:00:43):
you're like me, you're brain scatteredall over the place. There's a certain
skill set that's necessary. But alsoyou've got to be able to roll with
the emotional turmoil that is presented.So literally, as I'm getting ready to
chat with our guest, Pete Calender, middays, WBTA, how you doing
this morning? How do you well? I mean I was fine until I

(01:01:04):
just heard Dad, So now I'mI'm wondering what's going on? Read this,
Pete? I I thought we wereon the same page man, on
a lot of probably not everything we'vewe've we've drank beers together right where we
bonded. And now I see thatyou are a fascist, jack booted thug.

(01:01:25):
I thought that was well established beforethe beers. I know. Hold
on because you think that people whosimply want to hug police officers should go
to prison. And it's like,well, you know, you've seen how
people treat officers, but they'll literallywalk up to them and just call them
a pig right to their face.Right. We've had a lot of people

(01:01:49):
really come into their own on thisstuff. And so this man in Ashville,
he's just trying to hug this ladyoff. Was she hot? I
don't know, I don't know thosemotivations were. And and you're all I
saw on Twitter, you're all whiningbird no justice, So like, why
do you want to lock up peoplewho like cops? What's up with?
Well, I mean, the huggingwas not really a full body hug.

(01:02:12):
It was mainly just like hand society. Oh, I'm sorry, you said,
suspect, go ahead, Yeah,they around the suspects hand. It
was the suspects hands hugging. Verytightly around the officer's neck like with the
you guys, so a tight hugand maybe the elbows are up on the
back of the shoulders or the handI'm not following. It was an attempted

(01:02:36):
strangulation. Oh oh okay, andapparently the but not like the Carridine kinky
kind, right, no, ohokay? Yeah, yeah, no,
they yeah, they they And apparentlythey sentenced the judge, which apparently I
learned after we were talking about thiswith Mark Starling up in Ashville, because

(01:03:00):
apparently this judge was a traveling judgewho came from Mecklenburg County. Yeah,
that's that's been a thing for awhile, though I didn't really have to
Buncome. They had that going too. But that's that's a whole that's the
way they used to demonize Republicans underMcCrory. Was the traveling judge in sanity,
So Karen Edy Williams, she apparentlywent on up to Buncom County and

(01:03:25):
let the guy off with a seventeenmonth suspended sentence for strangling a cop who
by the way, that straight up, let's be straight up, why the
cop had even shown up to wasit pack pack Park. Is that what
it's called up there? Yeah?Pack Square Park, Yeah yeah, which
is you know, right there inthe center of downtown where the big monument
used to be until they had totake it down because of racism. And

(01:03:47):
uh so it's where everybody kind ofgathers to protest and to hear the buskirt
Yeah yeah, and so yeah,well exactly, And it's like really wide
roads in that area, so likethe tourists take their sweet time walking across
these really large roads and milking it. Yes, they're all high, they're

(01:04:09):
all high. So that's fair.Yeah, that's fair. And so there's
this big park that's there as well. And anyway, they were they got
win. This was back during thefiery but mostly peaceful uh Summer of Love.
Yeah yeah, after the desil wastrying to chas chop themselves too,
right, correct, right, butthen right, but then they had their

(01:04:30):
water bottle station torn down by thepolice. They crumpled and melted like snowflakes,
and and so they never did getthe chazz chop off the ground.
Right, they were excited. Iwas excited for your police force that day
because I'm like, didn't I didn'tthink they had it in them and good
on them. So this female officer, who had spent what twenty some years

(01:04:51):
in law enforcement, twenty plus years, she's responding, I just because I
was joking around getting into this,but I want to be deadly serious.
The reason that this officer is goingand even interacting with this lunatic is because
they had reports not just of waterbottle stations, but the potential for what
incendiary devices, bombs and stuff.Right correct, Yes, some explosive devices

(01:05:15):
were rumored to be to be makingtheir way to the Pack Square downtown area.
They got information that some people planto set off explosives or incendiary devices
andant Timmy Flannagan Bryson was working undercoverat the time, and she was out
there at the now former site ofthe Vance Monument. She sees an argument

(01:05:40):
breakout, and she sees this guypepper spray another guy and then walk away
from this incident from the pepper spraywith his bicycle, and when she goes
over to stop him, grabs thehandlebar of his bicycle. He responds in
the completely normal, sane, rationalway by grabbing her by the throat and

(01:06:02):
squeezing and causing her to black outright somebody. Yeah, somebody walking by
pulled another officer in, uh,who then got the guy off of the
lieutenant. So just again to setthe scene, because you know, we
kind of soft rolled into this.It's a it's a really really tumultuous time

(01:06:29):
obviously in the world of police scenebut also public demonstration. Right, takes
two to take Ashville's try. Theythey think Seattle's got it all figured out.
The Chaz Chop that's not going well. The moonbats are getting together.
This poor police woman's doing undercut.I didn't realize she was undercover, which
uh so was she dressed as aworthless dirt bag hippie, anarchist or what?

(01:06:55):
I don't know what exactly her cover? Uh cops musk was she though?
What was she pretending to be thatchick who offered to write me a
poem for five dollars? I don'tknow. Yeah, I'm not sure you
know, you could go the plannedway. I mean, this was July
fourth, so I'm guessing probably hippiesun dress, kind of uh kind of

(01:07:16):
cover, yeah yeah, probably nothingunderneath. Yeah whatever, Petuli steaming off.
And this is why this is soimportant, the details. So this
was unrest that was ground swelled basedon somebody's ability to breathe being monkeyed with,

(01:07:42):
right, like, yeah, okay, And so when he strangles the
officer to the point where she blacksout, and if only another officer had
not gotten there, who knows?And no jail, I just want to
be clear, No jail, nojail, right, seven teen months suspended
sentence to stay out of trouble,David Paul Ericsson. And and you'll you'll

(01:08:06):
be, you know, free togo and live your life, to strangle
again on another day, just Imean, and he's good at it too,
apparently apparently, yeah, apparently,Yeah, Now I just got one
more under the bell. I'm sorry, dude, I saw that I had
not. I didn't know about thewhole story. I seemed. I do
remember the incident vaguely because we werefollowing all the insanity in Ashville with the

(01:08:30):
U Are they going to do theirown autonomous so on? You know,
they're trying to do the gaza peopleare trying to set one up in Zuccati
Park up in New York right now, Yes, I did see that.
And then they apparently the private ownersof the park got wise and posted the
rules of the of the park andso now that means they can actually remove
the morons from the park. Didyou see the video of the Yeah,

(01:08:55):
yeah, you know I went toZakati. You know, I went there
when they when they were protesting yearsago. I was in New York for
we were for a work thing.We had a thing we do with d
PAC and then we go to NewYork because the shows that come down to
the theater here, they're the sametheater group owns theaters in New York Midtown
and then in North Carolina, andso we go in to a couple Broadway

(01:09:19):
shows. But I had like theafternoon free, and I'm like, I'm
going to the Zukkatis. So manI got Jaxi and went down there and
it's it was weird because you hadall of the you know, the occupy
folks in the middle there and theywere having just the like a homeless encampment.
And then they had a ring ofthe the the moonbats who I call

(01:09:42):
them, who wanted to be loudwith their signs, rung around that group,
and then a ring of police andthen a ring and I'm not stereotyping,
and maybe it wasn't every day oflike one hundred Japanese tourists taking pictures
all this, and I went in. I went in. I had my
morants, but I was a littlerecorder. Uh yeah, you don't know.

(01:10:04):
I had my marants. I'm goingto talk to these dudes. And
I got to tell you, otherthan some of the outer ring a holes,
this one woman was not pleased withme. I went in there,
I was talking and like, thesethree guys started talking. These three dudes,
they're from Ashville. They live ina commune just nor at the time

(01:10:26):
lived in a commune just north.They were very chill. They were wildly
misinformed. But and then they offeredto feed me out of their kitchen,
which had no power. So Ideclined. But did they have a like
a health score? Fine, butyou know what they did have. They
had they had one of those sabotscart, the hot Dog the New York

(01:10:48):
hot Dog carts. Oh y Fan'sumbrella, and that was kind of the
base of their kitchen, right inthe middle of They had drug it up
because Urban Zakati it's not a bigpark and it's elevated like three different times,
so they had to drag this thingup in the middle of it,
like a it's not a soft it'snot a soft place to lay your head

(01:11:08):
either. It's all concrete. There'sthe little grass patches, there's like tree,
there's like four trees. Yeah,and I know this because that's where
they tethered the ropes around to createthe inner perimeter. And I'm I interviewed
the dude. I still have itsomewhere, and he he seemed incredibly nice
but doomed right because like, andI was asking him and he was telling

(01:11:31):
me. I asked him, whatare you going to do after this?
You're gonna go back to Ashville?And he said the only reason he talked
to me is because I was fromNorth Carolina, and uh, he thought
I was from the public station.I did not tell him that I know
your He thought I was NPR.And after the interview, one of his
buddies asked which station, and Igave him our website and he's like,

(01:11:56):
and then the dudes like, Ithought you were with public radio. And
I'm like, okay, we justhad an interview and you were fine.
I don't know what your problem is. He said that after that he was
going to head down because he hadheard about a trek that you could do
in southern Mexico, sampling hydroponic marijuanaand hallucinogenics and living with some of the

(01:12:20):
the native peoples of southern Mexico.And he and he and some buddies are
gonna head down there. So they'reprobably dead by the yeah. But look,
when Occupied Charlotte was underway, Iwas working at a TV station and

(01:12:40):
I had the weekend shift, andso I was I was down there virtually
every weekend. It wasn't something elsegoing on that they wanted to send me
to. So there was always goodvideo from Occupy Charlotte. And I was
like one of the only media peoplethat any of the occupiers would talk with
because I would interview. I justtalked with them about their views on stuff.

(01:13:01):
And and I remember one time oneweekend there was a protest against the
Federal Reserve, which was literally acrossthe street, and I said, you
know, there's a bunch of likelibertarian, anti fed guys, you know,
over there, and you Occupy Wallstreeters, Like, have you talked
to those guys across the street,because I think you might have some things
in common? And uh, theydid not know. They did not,

(01:13:25):
And that's very sad. So yeah, but yeah, interesting, I'll take
I'll take the Zuccati kids over thegoz of people. Yeah. Any dude
going in Saint Patrick's Cathedral on theEaster Yeah right, yeah. Uh,
I don't have to do the thewhat if there because everybody knows had you
know, somebody glued themselves to thekaba right in in Mecca and was like

(01:13:51):
dah, you know save the whalesor whatever the cause was like uh what,
Well, we wouldn't know what happenedto him. But two he cried
city if it was in the US. But that's another thing for another day.
And I wanted to juxtapose You're AshevilleStrangler with this Colorado woman, Rebecca

(01:14:13):
Labyrinth, the latest of the Jaysix folks to meet her day in court,
sentenced to let's see here or shecould be grandma you stole my thunder,
I was going to ask, so, for those of who don't know
her big offense was she and asmall group who literally were there to pray,

(01:14:36):
entered through the open doors where hesaw the officers standing there on their
phones in the video where people aremilling around taking pictures, and I said,
wow, his grandma's walking around that'sliterally her group in that video.
And she then took a knee andprayed for ten minutes and left. And
she's facing probably a year in prisonfor praying and not to I mean,

(01:15:00):
yeah, well, I mean oursociety has to have guidelines, Casey,
we have to. Yeah, andso these are the guidelines. Right,
lay your hands on police, stranglethem. Seventeen months of suspended sentence.
Pray at the capitol when you're notsure whether you're allowed in the building or
not. That's a year in prison. Look, these are this is the

(01:15:24):
market sending signals. I was tellingsome folks in ashvill this the other day
that if you are a police officerin the Actville Police Department, maybe even
bunkhom County Sheriff's office, the marketis sending you a signal, which is
to get the hell out because youwill not be protected under the law if

(01:15:45):
somebody attacks you. So and youknow what, did you see the news
out of Gastonia where they're offering likefifteen thousand dollars signing bonuses to police officers.
So yeah, I also saw inNew York that they had a huge
reduction in their subway prime over thelast two weeks and flooding, the flooding
the field with officers and National Guardworks. All right, real quick minute

(01:16:09):
and a half, very important.How many schools you guys have still in
the big tourney down that a way? Well, as a Winthrop alum,
I would like to take credit forNC State's presence. Well, yeah,

(01:16:30):
because without the guy that you guysstole from Winthrop, you wouldn't be where
you are. You're referring to arather large dude. Yeah, and he
comes out of York Prep right acrossthe border in South Carolina, right,
so yeah, I'm gonna claim himas the Charlotte area. Yeah, you
don't get to do that. Sowe had two up til the Elite eight,
and you guys didn't have Jack.I didn't even given you Davidson,

(01:16:54):
but nope, couldn't even Charlotte neverhas any Charlotte. Yes, they were
in the tournament last year. Ilooked it up. Yeah, yeah,
well, I'm just saying final fourpack. Baby Duke was in UNC going
all the way. Didn't see youguys representing You're not pulling your I mean,
you guys, look all I cando. I mean, aside from

(01:17:14):
the playing game that Winterrop might winwith the Big South Conference. You know,
bite, there's something Winterrop can doexcept train up your star player.
You're welcome. Why can't this bea moment of unity? Fine? Fine,
fine, or you know, Igot a roll. I got ten
seconds. So we're done here.Yeah, we'll regroup next week, Thank
you, sir. Yes, goin state and we'll be back. Just

(01:17:38):
realizing the Holy cow, the theamount of companies and individuals impacted by this
ain't good. But let's get toit because it's what we do. I'll
lend me there, you go,take a'll lend me all right. So
what are we canceling? Uh?Eagles? I guess not the Eagles.

(01:18:04):
Joe Walsh still you know he's fine. I guess no, but actually maybe
because it comes down to the logo. All right, So what's the latest
grievance. It's this, Uh,the Utah Royals. I know nothing about
this team, but I don't haveto either. The problem according to it's

(01:18:34):
the hear do they bring outside consultantsor this their own internal idiots? It's
a side by the way, it'sa soccer it's a soccer team. So
I have you not heard of him? That's probably why you're not into soccer
anyway, all right. So,the the Utah Royals, which are the

(01:18:54):
team, partnered with the Utah CreditUnion, the Fort Douglas Civilian Employe Credit
Union, and they have been kindof one and the same. So it's
the soccer team, but the creditUnion has some ownership and as a result
they use it as a marketing apparatusobviously, but the team logo looks a

(01:19:15):
lot like the credit union logo,and in the logo you got an eagle,
and now we're that's a problem.In a statement to Axios, a
representative for America First Credit Union,which is now what it's called and Team
Ownership, responded to criticism based onthe name and logos of the organizations,

(01:19:45):
the two being problematic. Now theproblematic because as we as we learned,
if you have an eagle in yourlogo, it means you're a Nazi.
Right. Remember they were doing thiswith Trump and then people or pointing out
that literally the seal of the UnitedStates has an egle on it, and
they're like, well, yeah,it's the eagle. The lines are too

(01:20:06):
defined on it. It was justlike everything was going back to, you
know, Nazi imagery, right,even the stage at Seapack was was a
run or something. It was alsostupid. But apparently they've raised enough,
as shockingly in Utah, raised enoughir among people that they're demanding that the

(01:20:29):
team changed the logo. They wantto change the name of part of it
too, because somebody here we go, I got to read this because it's
just so stupid, all right,So according to those who are upset who

(01:20:49):
have now got this, oh inthe field is called America First Field,
so that that extra irritated. Andby the way, it was called that,
and it wasn't even a Trump thing, right, although it was during
the Trump era, they claim itwasn't a Trump thing. So they were
kind of baiting the moon bats,but whatever, So the moon bats have

(01:21:11):
ganged up. They are demanding thatthe logo with the eagle on it be
changed for both the team and forthe bank. There also they want them
to denounce a board member from nineteenforty seven. They want them to rename
America First Field, saying that Americathis is what the bank says. They

(01:21:35):
say, the American are named denotesour connection to our founding members, civilian
federal employees who worked at the Americanmilitary bases and defense depots. So they
don't like the name of the field. They don't like utilization of the former
name of the bank, which issometimes used because it's got military stuff,
in this case Fort Douglas. Andthey want them to apologize for a board

(01:21:59):
member who's been dead for fifty yearsover something like as something guy wrote or
whatever. This is how dumb we'regetting. In a statement, two groups
for the Washington Spirit and DC United, Right, so these are other soccer
clubs that this club plays against.Both came out and said that their opponent's

(01:22:26):
defense of their name ignores the complexand hateful history. So literally, the
people they're playing against are on thisbandwagon and that's why they're feeling the heat
here. And I guess my questionis is do you know every company?
Do you know all the companies thathave logos with eagles on it? Are
you really going to go after allof them? American Airlines first one pops

(01:22:51):
into head because they were one ofthe airlines on my big Argentina trip.
I used that logo. It's aneagle. You didn't know Winston Cigarettes,
I mean, obviously American Eagle Outfittersover at the mall the Postal Service has
an eagle. Look it up.This is all true, and Heiser Bat's

(01:23:15):
fine, go after them. I'vehad a bad year. The United States
Marine Corps would fall under their definitionof problematic logos. So for all of
you Marines out there, the pastyvegan moonbats of Utah and professional semi professional

(01:23:36):
women's soccer players, they think youneed to change the USAA barclays. The
Air Force is an eagle. Imean, it's just there's too much.
If you are, you a fanof vodka, Smernoff is an eagle,
right, yes, Cia, that'sfine, take that down. Just looking

(01:23:57):
at another Legos eagle eagle stuff.I didn't realize that the Ramones had their
own low Oh that's right. Itwas on the one album. It's got
an eagle in it holding a batthough it means business. So yeah,
that's where we find ourselves. AndI guess the first the first cut is
going to be this Utah soccer teamat CREDI, because it looks like they're

(01:24:19):
getting ready to do it because nowall the other teams are mad at them.
Can you imagine that in professional sports? Otherwise? I know that there
was some browbeating on the Redskins,but I believe the owners, the other
owners were not allowed to talk aboutthat, whereas here you got woke activists
that are using it to bully theiropponents. I guess that they couldn't beat

(01:24:41):
on the field judging by the recordshere, so uh, good for them,
all right? Eight eight eight ninethree four seven eight seven four.
I played some biden ody or letme get to let me get to this,
so Trump interesting little applause line yesterdayat one of his rallies listen to

(01:25:01):
or interviews. I'm sorry he's interviewedbefore the rallies. Happy to be cocaine
in the white ass. Hold on, I got it because this is why,
by the way, I want toget another interview, because because I
tried to get his kid to talkabout it. We had Don Junior on
a few weeks ago, mostly becauseI wanted to know the photos that they
used to make fun of him whatthey actually mean. But I think if
we get the president on former president, he might he might detail what he's

(01:25:27):
about to dtail. You know thatthat white stuff that they happened to find
was happy to be cocaine in thewhite ass. I don't know. I
think I think something was going onthere because I watched this State of the
Union and he was all jacked upat the beginning. By the end he
was fading fast. There's something goingon there. I want a debate,
and I think debates with him atleast should be drug tested. I want

(01:25:48):
to mister preident, you suggest thingPresident Biden's using cocaine. I don't know
what he's using, but that wasnot Hey, he was higher than a
kite. All right, all right, I don't I'm gonna disagree, not
that that Joe Biden is. Likeyou can see the CPAP mass lines the

(01:26:11):
other day again where he came out, so you know, when he's not
in view, it looks like they'rehaving him hooked up to oxygen. And
you know, I don't think anyonedenies necessarily that for him to be animated,
for him to be up, Ithink a lot of people theorize there's

(01:26:33):
a lot of things that happen.But I don't think they're giving him cocaine.
I've seen plenty of people on cocaine. Dude doesn't look like he's on
cocaine. I don't think you survivedcocaine, to be quite honest, with
you. I just maybe I'm wrong. Maybe if you go into the Oval
office unannounced, it looks like theTony Montana's desk. I don't know,

(01:26:54):
but I don't think it's that.But remember this is basically a response to
Biden sitting there with Stephen Colbert sayinghe wants to play golf against him,
but only if they carry bags.So debate on in at lasts eighteen holes.

(01:27:15):
They both carry their bags, andthey can both have cocaine. That
is my debate proposal. Let meknow what you think, Ken Boone from
the Weather Channel, he doesn't haveto weigh in on that. You can
just weigh in on the weather ifhe wants. But everything's nuts. I'm
glad it's Friday. Do your worst, sir. What do you got?
All right? Well, a bit, I'll a chili side for us here

(01:27:36):
today and tomorrow was temperatures are goingto remain below average, but then we
start to warm up Sunday and intothe next week. As temperatures early next
week are supposed to be back intothe seventies. But out here today mix
the clowns in sun, breezy,cool, right around sixty one, middle
to upper thirty. Tom with afrost advisory in effect early Saturday morning,
sunshine Saturday, heis again tomorrow lowmaybe some mid sixties across the region,

(01:27:57):
upper sixty Sunday with sunshine, andseven was sunshine early next week. All
right, have a good weekend,sir, appreciate you too. Yep,
ken boone, they're from the WeatherChannel. But this is I can't believe
you. Honestly, don't think he'son cocaine. I didn't, no,
no, no, no, becausethen he goes, uh, you know
you don't think he's on drugs.I'm not saying that he's not on drugs.
I just don't think cocaine's the choice. Yeah, well that was the

(01:28:21):
thing with true. Didn't they accuseTrump of being an adderall dude? Yeah,
they were like I always snorting adderallyou could see it in the blah
blah blah. And it's like,here's a picture of your kid with his
junk out holding a gun with ahooker and crack in the photo. Well
that's you don't know what's going onthere. And I'm like, you just
said he's got adderall in his nose. But yeah, but cocaine. You

(01:28:43):
don't think Biden's on cocaine. Thatwould kill him. He'd be dead no
more, Biden. He's not oncocaine. And you want to know,
here's how you know. If youdo see him animated and he's not feverishly
doing something or organizing something for waytoo long, it's probably not a cocaineh
So something else, sir. I'mnot saying that. I don't think there's

(01:29:05):
nothing there. I'm just saying Idon't think it's that. I don't think
he's doing the Chris Farley speedballs either. Let's go on the record, but
we'll be back. Jeff Pellinger's nexthang on, Good morning, Casey.
We just found out a short timeago that the nation's job market is not
slowing. The Labor Department reports employersadded three hundred three thousand workers to their

(01:29:29):
payrolls in March, many more thanexpected. The unemployment rate ticked down to
three point eight percent that was inline with forecasts. There was a small
uptick in workers average weekly hours.Saw quite a sell off yesterday after a
Federal Reserve official said it is possiblecentral bankers will not cut interest rates this
year. And this was Minneapolis FedPresident Neil cash Kerry. He didn't say

(01:29:53):
infrast rate cuts are off the table, just that rate cuts may not be
needed if progress on inflation should stall. But that's all it took to trigger
a stock market sell off. Futures, though this morning point to a rebound.
The Dow futures are up one hundrednine points at the moment. Even
after that strong jobs report. Amultimillion, multi billion dollar deal is in

(01:30:13):
the works in the pharmaceutical sector.Johnson and Johnson is buying Shockwave Medical for
more than thirteen billion dollars. WhaltDisney is going to join other streaming video
providers and cracking down on password sharingamong subscribers. Disney CEO Bob Eiger told
CNBC Disney Plus and Hulu customers anda few nations will be subject to new
restrictions starting in June. A widercrackdown will begin in September. Twenty twenty

(01:30:39):
three was a year of labor unrest, also a year when a lot of
workers joined unions. Federal data showthat private sector union membership increased by one
hundred ninety one thousand to seven pointfour million last year. Apple's decisions to
end its work on electric cars andsmart watch displays cost more than six hundred
workers their jobs. The iPhone makerrevealed the layoffs and filings with the state

(01:31:03):
officials in California and Casey. Foodinflation continues to strain household budgets. The
pace of the price increases has slowed, but hundreds of products cost at least
fifty percent more than they did intwenty nineteen. One retiree told The Wall
Street Journal she has managed to keepher grocery bills in line, but it

(01:31:23):
took a lot of work and carefulshopping. Loved the quote, Casey.
She said, Chicken is always onsale somewhere. Casey, Yeah, but
even the sale price now is like, oh my gosh, how much is
chicken? So all right, letme real quick. You got to do
a pick eem NC State or Perdue? Who you got. I'm gonna I

(01:31:45):
know where I am, So I'mgoing to say NC State. That's smart.
That's a good decision, sir.All right, Look at that,
Jeff, Jeff called it. Andif they don't win, Jeff lied to
you. So all right, thankyou, Jeff. Okay, Casey,
every good Weekenday, all right,look at that, throwing him under the bus.
