Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I was just reading something this morning, and I realized
I might have perfectly timed in the way that only
a sitting member of Congress can perfectly time, like a
stock trade. I think I may have caught lightning in

(00:21):
a in a bottle there. So I had to go
grocery shopping Monday. So I did that kind of prefer
mondays wind down. I don't want to be I don't
want to go in on the weekends or run into
a bunch of people. Plus on Monday sometimes for one
of those people who like to go check out the
yellow or red tags over the meat area, Monday's a

(00:43):
good day to do that. I don't know if that's
the all stores, but finds of deals in there. So
I went shopping, and you know, about the normal stuff,
the normal stuff, and you know, still grown. When I
did it, it was what it was. And then you know,

(01:06):
Tuesday was Tariff's Day and I'd already been shopping, and
now here we are it's Friday, and uh panel on MSNBC.
Let make sure I have this correct. I was just
watching these idiots all bark at each other. Let's see
here the prices now since okay, so since the announcement

(01:30):
of the Trump tariffs. This MSNB a CNBC host, this
is just insane, and then it was over on MSNBC.
So they said on CNBC and MSNBC quote anecdotally was
pointing out that the very same groceries from last week
are now one hundred and fifty percent more. Is that true?

(01:53):
I haven't been to a grocery store since Monday? Ross,
have you done it? You're you're you're further north. It
should be truer for you, probably, right.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
You know, I haven't seen that.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
You haven't bought anything? Right?

Speaker 2 (02:04):
No, No, I have.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
But food, not food? You have food?

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Oh you know, no food?

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Yeah? Oh wow, Okay he paid one hundred and fifty
percent more for it.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
I mean I can double check my account. No I
did not.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Oh okay, all right, well it's coming right. It's probably
like the zombie apocalypse right where you know, you get
the first Biden. It's got to work its way down.
So that's crazy. Like do you even have the staff
at a normal grocery store to reprice everything one hundred
and fifty percent different in three days? I don't feel
like you do. I don't feel like that's reality. But no,

(02:43):
that's what they were going with. And you're gonna be
shocked to learn they figured out where the claim emerge from. Uh,
it emerged from what is known as post fact or
fact post. Do you know what this account is? You do?
You don't know that you do? This account used to
have another name, Kamala HQ. Apparently they were able to

(03:06):
get the the name changed to fact Post, and so
they sit there and they run all this stuff. And
so I don't know if they're keen off of it
or it's the same person. But I'm so glad I
bought Monday. Whoo. That was close. So sure, it's just

(03:28):
a matter of top Probably some of our Virginia listeners
are dead now because it's I'm sure there's panels in
New York or maybe DC, probably New York. So it's
a coming head of the hills. Get in your bunkers.
It's it's gonna be absolutely pandemonium, the dumbest thing. And

(03:50):
then nobody just sits there and goes, you know what,
maybe we shouldn't have Maybe we shouldn't have gone with
one fifty. That's kind of ridiculous. They're just like, oh, yeah,
I know, it's so bad out there. I can't believe
what he did this week. It's like the did you
see the story last week where they're like, uh, the
they're they're they're bordering on running that there's a full
blown AIDS crisis because of the USA I D cuts,

(04:14):
And I'm like, everybody got AIDS in three weeks? What happened?
How does that work? Because like I again, I'm willing
to listen to any arguments out there saying, hey, we
had this program, this program was very effective, and here's
this strategic advantage or positive thing for how did everyone

(04:36):
get AIDS in three weeks. I'm not making light of AIDS.
I'm making light of people who would sit there and go, oh, yes,
this thing, this thing not happening anymore. Meanwhile, there's a
gazillion other organizations out there and all of a sudden, yeah,
we're just saying this. Numbers are blowing up. I'm like,

(05:00):
if you go get if you wanted to go get tested.
Let's say that you find out your spouse is unfaithful. Okay,
this is this is where this is where people will
go get full screens right and and DWARS is nigh
one of the first things you should probably go do
should probably probably go get an STD check and they
will tell you when you get a panel for something

(05:22):
like that that specifically when you're talking about HIV, that
time matters, So you can go get a checked two
weeks after you find out, but also you need to
go get checked again after a certain amount of time.
So like that's that's that's what I'm talking about here.

(05:43):
You're telling me that all this happened in two or
three weeks. How long have we been running eights? I
can't even get into all the things I want to
say about this topic.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Yeah, I know you can't. Ross knows him and no,
but on a larger thing, I mean, listen, I can't
remember my life without AIDS being a thing in like
in the world.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Right.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
We grew up in the Red Ribbon and it was
on TV everywhere and they had like very special episodes
of shows and stuff. So we've had thirty to forty
years of education about this and how to get it
and how not to get it, and we've been helping
these countries for the same amount of time. If this
was the case, which it isn't, but if it was

(06:25):
the case that you know, Trump suddenly pulled out this
usaid money and certainly AIDS has exploded in Africa on
a span of two weeks, which once again hasn't happened,
because that's ridiculous. But even if that did, what was
given the benefit of the doubt that did happen?

Speaker 1 (06:39):
What do we what? What?

Speaker 2 (06:41):
What happened in the last thirty forty years? That message
should have gotten in your head. You should be aware
that this is a thing and how how to get
it and how not to get it because we've been
pumping billions of dollars in these countries for four decades
about this.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, we've done some We done some educating, that's for sure.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Do we need like another forty fifty years before you
know the the concept is understood? I don't understand it.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
I would encourage people if they too, are questioned, because
I'm not going to get into a lot of reasons
because I I don't pretend to fully understand all of them. However,
you will quickly if you if you start really digging
into this topic, you're going to be greeted with some
big hurdles that are cultural hurdles that have to be overcome.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
And you're gonna read it and you're going to be like,
that's not true because it's so ridiculous. Look, can't do it.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
Illogical. No, here's what I'm gonna say, illogical customs and
or beliefs that have a little part of religion maybe
attached to it. Like that's not like that's it's not
a new thing. Okay, it's just I don't even want

(07:57):
I don't want to say that this is a religious
thing that necessarily because it's not any it's it's just
an incorrect interpretation of things. And so that's a that's
a and that's a tough thing to overcome, right, it's
a tough thing for practices of this really this thing
that is just you know, it's everyone on earth. This

(08:21):
is the tie that binds, so to speak. Right, I
don't care, I don't care who you are. Your dude,
some topless girl goes by with a basket on her head,
What do you see? You know what's in the basket. No,
you're not right, because you just have these innate drive
to pro create, and it's just very important that there

(08:44):
are things that you can do and things that you
can't do within there. And I don't know how to
overcome that, but it really really there's there's a lot there,
but don't don't try to tell me that in two
three weeks, like all effort was lost.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
The whole premise that we have to think through this
is if it's a possibility that that actually happened, is ridiculous, right, absurd?
Absolutely Trump comes in two weeks later, there's an AIDS
explosion in the Congo or whatever.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Please yeah, and let's video emerge of him running around
with a needle, like just stop, just stop, make your
arguments why this is good for the US from and
then insert whatever it is. And again, I'm not one
of these pure isolationist dudes. I think sometimes you do

(09:31):
do things so that you can exert a little bit
of control or or you can at least counter control China. China,
this is their thing now. They just go around, They're like,
we're your friend, we're your friend. And the US used
to do it a lot. And I don't know what
the answer is, but I get very uncomfortable when China's
doing things like US stopping I can't believe I'm going

(09:54):
to say this stopping the acquisition of those port facilities
down in Panama by Blackrock. Not that I'm Blackrock to
have him. But I don't like that China's in a
position that they can dictate who can or can't buy
these from the Panamanian government. But holy hell, all right,
that's as close to that hot potato as I'll get.

(10:16):
But you guys do your thing. Oh do you see
Corey Booker admitted that his big speech was nothing but
political theater. That's weird, Rosz. Did you see Corey Booker's
quote yesterday to Stephen A. Smith? He said he won't
define himself by who he's against, who his opposition is,

(10:37):
I should is what he's saying. Corey Booker says he
doesn't define himself by who he's against. Now I know
it was none of it was real. No, that's a
troll of all trolls. Man.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
No, he was only done so he could, you know,
raise his profile for the next election.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
One hundred percent. And he's like, oh, I don't care
about I don't define myself by him against you. You've
set a kind of not really a filibuster. But you
let's put this in normal terms. All right, Let's say
let's say we're a bunch of girls, sorry ladies, all right,
We're a bunch of girls right, uh, and we're and

(11:14):
Ross and I are sitting around in our friend court
Korea or whatever where he would go buy in. This
scenario comes by and it's like, I, Oh, that boy
that I like, I don't even think about him, and
then proceeds to whine about how he doesn't he didn't
look back, and I gave him the I gave blinked

(11:35):
at him, and I left the note and b for
eighteen hours. She's like, I don't even think about him.
That's that's what that is. Am I wrong? That's that
where he's living rent free in your head and your
friends know they're just like whatever.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
He only brought up one valid point the entire twenty
four hours. There was at one point where he said
the Buffalo Bills were the only near New York state
football team, the only team and.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
I'm not check. Four hours and twenty minutes he did.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
I see now. I saw it on my Twitter feed
and I said, you know what, Corey good point Korean Arena.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
Remember we're doing the that that's because this is what
this is. I don't even I don't even think about him.
Here's eighteen hours of why do man so good on
him getting his troll on. Now we can just as
quickly ignore him. All right, six nineteen, we have an
update on that lunatic who went on the Sentinel Island

(12:39):
because of course he did. This guy's got a guard dude.
I need to get in on this dude's guardian angel action.
That's all I'm gonna tell you. I'll give you the
rest of the details and much more coming up case
O Day Radio program. You know, so of the tariff
reaction and what's going on there stock market now it's
sixteen no twelve, sixteen hundred, right, yes, sir, which is

(13:03):
not on expat. I don't know if they expect it
to be that much, but clearly there was gonna be
some some sell off here. Well, will chat with Jeff
Bellinger a little later. Pete Callener will join us. That's
coming up at eight oh five. And uh, we had
basically two weeks of stuff to chit chat about.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
Liam Neeson is Frank Drevin? Is that what's going on?
Do you see this the New Naked Gun reboot starring
Liam Neeson. I he's got some You ever see the
video of Liam Neeson where he's I don't even know
the premise of what they're doing. But they got him
in there and they're like, all right, let's act out

(13:47):
a scenario, like a workplace scenario, and he's his comic
timing's pretty good. I can't even remember what they were doing.
It's really funny. Are you just kind of it's just weird?
And everybody else saw in the room. I think it
was like, all right, imagine the conversation with you and
this restaurant owner, and like it evolved into some really

(14:08):
dark humor and Liam Neeson kind of nailed it. So
I don't know, maybe you can do this. The problem
is I don't think you can let Frank Drebin be
Frank Rebin man. By the way, here, the writing probably
is gonna be okay, listen to the yeah we got
time for this.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
Hey, little girl, stop, what do you want?

Speaker 4 (14:31):
Little one?

Speaker 1 (14:34):
Your ass?

Speaker 3 (14:36):
That's the.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
Who are you?

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Frankreben? Please squad.

Speaker 6 (14:51):
The version, h daddy, it's me Frank Jad.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
Would miss you. Look, I don't know.

Speaker 7 (15:07):
You.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
Yeah, the little slicing dice here is a little OJ
reference there, So that's fun maybe, And I did cat
I did give it a an asterisk. I will point
that out because I'm because you never know, you never know.
I'm referring to the father with the job interview because

(15:33):
the story as it was first explained, and I was
trying to figure out how the media seems to have
gotten so duped on this, and I think I figured
it out. So if you remember a Georgia father accused
of leaving three young kids, the oldest twelve, the youngest one,
the middle one is six, at a McDonald's and uh,

(15:55):
like us to Georgia there so that he could go
do a job interview kind of across the street and
down a little bit. Apparently it was at a hotel
or an inn of some sort, and he just left
the kids at the play place at McDonald's. A customer
saw the kids and it was a problem. That's how
we understood it, right, So yeah, it looks like that

(16:21):
may not be the case. So as best I can tell,
now what I said when we talked about I said,
you know this, I don't understand necessarily how this is
helpful if he's trying to do the right thing. And
I said, unless, of course, he was going to a
bar or to go gambling or whatever, and then you know,
do whatever you're gonna do, and I don't know that

(16:42):
it quite rises to that level. So here's what police
think happened. Dude went and filled out a job application
around one thirty and uh, but was not expecting any
return call for an interview. Okay, all right, so you
take care of that. But you know, some would argue, well,
if you're just doing the application, it's not a set

(17:03):
of appointment. Is the urgency enough with the kids, And
I don't know, maybe it is. I don't know his
whole schedule there, and I arguably that would be far
less worse, right, because it's a very timed, quick event
to just fill out a very generic job application, so
it'd pop over, pop off. But it turns out he
was not gone for thirty minutes. He was gone for

(17:25):
ninety and there were customers that police interviewed that it
reported some like exchange because he was on the phone
too before he left his kids there, and something about
dropping something off and then going to the store and
grab something. Well, it turns out the police think he
had the backpack he had and then whatever acquired at

(17:48):
the store he was getting for the I don't know
if it's all the kid's mom, but whatever is estranged
the other the woman's name is, and then went to
an apartment complex. It's about a mile down the road,
walk down there, and for whatever reason, was not able
to find her, which the whole thing is weird. And
in the during that time he had he lost his

(18:12):
wallet and ID and was not able to deliver the bag.
But the point is that when police started digging into
this like it was, it clearly wasn't that now the
reason I think that they, probably the media was willing
to run with it. Well we can. We can talk
about motivations for days, but is one of the people

(18:34):
corroborated that this is what was happening? Turn it now
turns out, is this dude's homeless crackhead girlfriend. I don't
know if cracks her drug of choice. Uh. It kind
of looked like something is uh, And there you go.
And I'm not knocking on her for being homeless. I'm

(18:54):
not knocking her for that, but it's like, you didn't ask, hey,
do you guys know each other? What's going on here?
So that's where that's where we're at. And with with
those facts there until they tell me something more. I mean,
charging him with kind of a very moderate in the

(19:16):
grand scheme of things as it pertains to kids probably
is appropriate. And I know some people are going, well,
what does it change? You know, if he does, he
has enough transportation and he's got to drop this bag
off for his kids, you know, his his kid's mom's
or a mom or whatever. You gotta do what he's
got to do. Well, no, because if you walk the

(19:38):
kids down there, kids can walk a mile, ten year
old will walk a mile. You probably have to stick
of what you know, you're gonna have to carry a
one year old obviously, but if that's something you feel
you got to do, you don't have to leave your
kids a McDonald's to do it. So yeah, I hate that. Now,
what's didn't they raise a crap ton of money for

(19:58):
this dude too? And Antonio Brown come out and was like,
let's get him paid. I don't know how that's gonna work.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
Yeah, because most people wanted the story to be true,
right well, and yeah, yeah, I mean it was a
good thing. You have a guy who had a kid
at fourteen, is still in his kid's life and ten
years later at twenty four going to try to get
a job to provide for his family. I mean, we
will all most people wanted this story to be true.

Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yeah, and I don't think they're disputing that he went
over there and filled out the application. So you know,
whether that was because he sincerely wants that job, or
he has to do a certain number for some benefits
for his kids, I don't know what it is, but
like this is that's a remarkably different set of circumstances. Yeah,

(20:44):
I don't know. I'd be very interested to see this
all filled in. I suspect this story will probably not
get picked up by most of the national media again because,
let's just be honest, a lot of them were in
it because they want there. There was a certain narrative
there too. Why are they harassing this this this poor

(21:07):
black man who's just trying to get ahead. And again
I don't know that he wasn't doing things he thought
he needed to, but it just tarnishes all of it, man,
So hopefully they get that figured out. Meanwhile, over in Asheville,
they got their own dude trying to get ahead. We'll
get to that story here, and uh, actually, what the

(21:29):
what the heck? The clock a few minutes if you said, hey,
some dude tried to tried to successfully Although did get
caught rob a grocery store for incense and a cinnabon,

(21:52):
you'd be like, I'm sorry, what, Yeah, the whole the
whole store and you robbed incense.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
Dude, that are good?

Speaker 1 (22:00):
It well, I don't know if it was a cinnabun
or a cinnamon bun.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
Both ways, Yeah, they're better at the airport though my opinion.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
I'm just not a sweet skuy.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
But you do.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
You people are over at Cinnamon look like they're having
a great time. I will say that I've never had
a cinnamon but you guys do you so you're missing out?
Am I really? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (22:22):
It's life changing.

Speaker 1 (22:24):
As you go to the city.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
I don't even know where is. It will probably give
you diabetes.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
Oh all right, can't you get don't they sell cinnabons
at Taco Bell and the dessert menuor that's chopped up?
Isn't that what that is?

Speaker 2 (22:36):
I know I'm talking like the big Mac Daddy like
cinabun where it's like it comes in the giant box.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
So my point was, does that dude's mugshot? I never
knew this existed. Looks like somebody who would steal in sense?
Is that true? That's true, that's the most hippie. It's
the most dippy hippie Violet. And you know what was
his weapon of choice? Machete?

Speaker 2 (23:03):
Oh that's great, yeah whatever, yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
So this long haired lunatic goes in allegedly to a
grocery store in Ashville's name's Jeffrey Bradburn, and he's like,
give me all the incense, which is the most Ashville
crime I could think of if you really think about it.
What it don't sell? Patuli there that you could get?

(23:33):
What are your staple needs? I'm assuming if you go
steal a cinnamon bun and uh and and incense, you're
high af right? Doesn't that sound sound like something in
case the munchies to bring about. I'm not encouraging it.
And by the way, when police tracked him down, you
know what he was doing, shoving that cinnamon roll in

(23:54):
his face. Cought red, caught white handed. I guess with
the uh the goodness they put on.

Speaker 2 (24:02):
We've had a lot of robberies lately in the news
where they've been super weird. Really, you know, younger people
committing these robberies or these staffs. Remember the guys who
had the snake who stole who stole the vapes? Like,
take the money, man.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
You can flip vapes. That stuff's not chance to sell.
People sell like vapes on the streets.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
But whatever happened is taking the cash. Now you're like,
give me the cinabun in the incense.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
You just claim to like cinabuns. All right, let's say
you all right now.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
I'm not going to commit a crime for a cinnabun.
I will pay for it, all right, out my mask
in the airport like a normal human being.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Hear me out. Let's say that that weird MSNBC panels, Right,
groceries are one hundred and fifty percent higher this week
from Monday when I shopped. And now you're like, ah, man,
I gotta feed my family. I gotta do something. So
let's say you go rob the cookout, you leave it
with just the money.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Listen, I'm a man of class and sophistication, So if
I'm going to take part in the heist, it's going
to be a major heist. So I would do this
Cinnabon if it was. If I'm like robbing a Cinnabon,
playing factory, like, I'll take out like seven trucks. I'm
not going, I'm not committing a crime and going to
prison for stealing one cinnabon.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
And insane you forgot these? Yeah, it's not gonna incense.
I don't even know. All right, but you're a cookout
and let's say that as you did the stick them
up and you got the money, you look over where
they put all the food that's getting ready, it's all done.
Are you ready to go to people? And you see
a peach cobbler sitting there?

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Oh no, but I'm taking the money and the cobbler.
But also, once again, I'm a man of sophistication. I'm
hiding in the ventilation shaft at night when they close
the cookout, I'm popping down and taking all the peach
cobblers and the money.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
I mean the ventilation shaft, we push nothing but hot Yeah,
smoke through all day. Good luck with that, say beasy. Well,
that's part of the principal thing you mentioned there. So yeah,
I wonder if much incense he got.

Speaker 2 (26:03):
I don't know that it matters, like there what a
certain number? Really that's good?

Speaker 1 (26:08):
What?

Speaker 4 (26:09):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (26:09):
Well, hey, if you got enough that you can flip
for it's like what the city you just said you'd
rob seven trucks even because they're filled with one dollar
cinnamon buns. But if you got enough of them, it's
gold man. You tell me you can't flip cinnabuns.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Like it'd be like the robbery scene in Goodfellas where
they show up at the bar afterwards and deniros in
there and like I pull up in the cinebon truck
and he's like, what are you doing? Hey?

Speaker 1 (26:30):
Go to go to wherever lonely cat ladies you know are,
and then just open your cinnamon truck. Just flip it open. Hey,
what are we doing here? He sold out. In a minute,
they saw that cat fanciers thing at the state paragrounds
every year. Pop into that parking lot. He fires all

(26:50):
those things in a minute. Well, we're just doing business here.
Don't you get mad people, cause I, like I said,
every year when they have that cat association thing over
at the fairgrounds. If you're a dude, wanted to were
like where the single lady's at? So now you bring
you and your cinabun truck. You're gonna be like a god.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Hey trucks plural, Well.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
You bring one at a time because you don't want
to have all your stolen goods at the same place.
Come on, man, I'm not like a low and thief here.
Have you? Have you ever earned peers? Not just like
in the movie, Leave the gun, take the cinnabun. Is
that how that went? I don't think that's how it went.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Boston, Paul, imagine Val Kilmer and Heat coming out with
his ak. What did he happen? There was an AR
fifteen is AR fifteen and just coming out, like you know,
with a duffel bag full of cinnabuns, just taking it.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
In those bags. Ye gotta they looked heavy full of cinnabons.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
Well it's the icing man. It weighs it down.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
Yeah, now that's fair. That's fair.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
What's more surprising is his bond. His pun is fifty thousands. Well,
look he had a giant machete at the time, so
not an June sword though. So that's good, sir. You're
probably still eligible to go to the UK. All right,
six forty eight. Hang on, have you seen any of
the roster? You've seen any of the Jackie the German
Shepherd saga, which stretches now from California to Alaska.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
I don't think at all.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
No, what is it oh my goodness. Okay, all right,
So during the just days after the wildfires, a stray
dog and the people named it Jackie. I don't know
whose it was, nobody claimed it whatever, And actually there
were so many stray animals brought in following the fires.
Very sad because you know a lot of he did

(28:43):
have a lot of animals that were probably not living
with people, just kind of neighborhood dogs. But you know,
then all the trees burned down and all of this,
so they had a big influx of pets. And this
dog came in and she was facing euthanasia just due
to the numbers, but at a rescue group because there's
a little notoriety with this dog in Alaska stepped in

(29:05):
and Jackie made her way to Juno, Alaska. She had
to be a little bit of a shock for a
dog raised in the Los Angeles area. Unfortunately, Jackie freaked
the hell out, so she ran away and they've been
trying to catch Jackie since then up there, and Jackie
has been incredibly resourceive, resourceful, and elusive as animal control

(29:31):
officers in the public at large. In fact, she keeps
besting their traps. So they have cheese they're using cheeseburger traps,
and she keeps figuring out how to eat the cheeseburger
but not get trapped, which I would get How quickly
would you get trapped if there were cheeseburger traps out there?
I feel like I'd probably be there day one man,

(29:53):
you'd get me sitting there? Is that a cheese Is
that a delicious cheeseburger? Oh my goodness? What is this
surroundings that feels caged? Anyway, there's a cheeseburger.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
I'll give you in a minute, I would recognize it
was the trap and still go for the cheeseburger. I'll
take my chances.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
Yeah, if it looked good, they grew up a cheeseburger,
But I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt
that it's delicious looking and she's able to get in there.
So she'd been on the lamb since mid February. As
you can imagine, there's still a lot of snow stuff
up there. She's not exactly a cold weather dog, so
uh yeah. Also, cheeseburger traps are a thing. Yeah. Here

(30:36):
she is eating the cheeseburger they got because they got
the trail cams on it. That dog's smart.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
Man.

Speaker 1 (30:43):
She probably wouldn't anybody's dogs. She probably was just living
off the large s of the Pacific Palisades, neighborhood man
eating whatever, living her life. And now she's like, wait
a second, I got on this weird loud thing and
now it's cold as hell. What the heck's going on?
Where's the beach? So anyway, but yeah, cheezburger traps. That's

(31:08):
mostly why I did the story because I didn't know
those were a thing, and we'd all get busted, so
we got some fun audio to get for you. You
heard probably mentioned in the news the tornado situation. There's
a lot of really bad stuff. We'll get into it
with Race Agic. And of course, even in spite of
the fact that there's a lot of really bad stuff, uh,

(31:30):
there are people out there who are reveling in the
fact that when we get into these big tornado outbreaks,
what are the what are the what are the states
that normally are impacted flyover country quote unquote, get Oklahoma, Kansas,
maybe North Texas, Arkansas, and then of course southern states Mississippi, Alabama.
Any times there's a big tornado outbreak, somebody in Mississippi

(31:52):
and Alabama. I know I'm generalizing here, but somebody in
a trailer parking way like something bad is gonna happen. Well,
an interesting coincidence. Do you guys remember in the very
last hour when I was talking about the dude in
Asheville who went and robbed the grocery store for incense
and the cinnamon or whatever. And I was like, Hey,

(32:14):
a scenario with Ross. What did you say? You said
you only do big heights, right right?

Speaker 2 (32:19):
You know, man, you know, come on sophistication here. I'm
not your petty thief.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
Somebody stole one hundred thousand eggs from a delivery truck.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
I don't know what you're talking about.

Speaker 1 (32:28):
That's weird.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
That ain't me.

Speaker 1 (32:30):
You know, if I had to pick the person I
know who eats the most eggs, you know who that
would be.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
The person might be Kyle Wilson.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
You think it's Kyle Wilson, Zoy Chreiso Wilson, Right, No,
big persons, not him, it is. It is another person.
It gets up early in the morning for this station.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Steve said, all he doesn't, he doesn't even work with
Steve doesn't work.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
No, Trevor's not up that early on to blame them.
So it's not me. I would know if it was me.
So like, this is running short. So that happened, and
then simultaneously that was in Pennsylvania, and then yesterday I
thought this was Kentucky and so it's Tennessee. Oh I
get it. Okay, So it so in Tennessee. Two trucks

(33:25):
It was not one. It was two trucks showed up
at a Tennessee meat packing plant and they're like, hey,
we're the meat delivery guys. And they're like, oh yeah,
we're waiting for you, and why don't you back your
trucks up? And then according to the police report, they
loaded the trucks up, they drove away, and then they

(33:47):
never arrived for deliveries for I guess was said to
be in Michigan and Kentucky.

Speaker 2 (33:52):
Now, if it's so, did they just pull up in
like a minivan or something and say, hey, give me
the meat and they gave me.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
The trucks and falsified a truck company name called List Truckings.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
Okay, so if you have if you have a fake
manifest and a fake truck, then truck I don't know.
They always do that in the movies though they show
up with like a truck that and usually it's a
van they get for like the heist or the theft
or whatever, and they completely remake the van to look
like whatever they're supposed to do, and they paint it
and they put the house and it's always perfect. And

(34:27):
for once, I would like in a movie for them
to show up in the truck and have the logo
be completely crooked and the paint be like off, because
that's a hard job. It's not something that's super you
can just pick it up and like do a great fit.
That's why we go to places to have that done.
It takes a lot of work and I would just
like to see it for once. They say, I want
to see the process of the guy painting the van, but.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
You can get a wrap now for like eight hundred
bucks and it will say whatever you want.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
I would just lay. I would like to see in
a movie where they get for once, you see the
guy painting the van that they use in the heist,
and halfway through you know, it pans back and you
see how bad of a job he's doing. He just
liked and he just goes anyway and he uses that
van because it means it's perfect.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
I hear what you're saying. But also even if it
is perfect, you can just randomly show up and be like, oh,
I'm the guy with give me all the meat, and
they do that. There's not there's no other verification. Just
like your fan the logo looks correct, like that feels
like that's not two part authorization. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (35:26):
Yeah, it's always like where spob but he's a guy,
he's off to day and they're like, that's every look.

Speaker 1 (35:30):
Every movie that ever has the how many movies are
there in existence where they have to deliver a vending
machine that's actually a bomb or something like? I can
think of multiple movies and in every scenario it's the
same thing. What's the Schwarzenegger movie where he pretends to
be a mob dude? H very early one. It's not

(35:51):
Commando because ah, hold on, I'm undercover.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
I gotta search. That's fine, you can search that. I'm
I'm looking at the photos mark he took yesterday. We
made a you know, back in the day, they'd make
these you seem a p Interest market, which showed me
you would see these decks made out of palletts, we
just made a deck made out of egg curtains.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
Well that's thousands of thousands of.

Speaker 2 (36:17):
Egg curtains and it's it's stable. Dude, you think like
that's gonna it's not moving anywhere. That's solid.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
I mean it's unique. That is a unique idea, just
instep repurposing stuff for other things. He's very hot right now.
So yeah, raw deal, So raw deal. It's the I
think for they need to like soft blow up a
police station. They don't want to really kill anyone, and
so they can rob a different one. I think it's
the prime. It's been it's been a while. That movie
came out forever ago, and like they're like all right,

(36:45):
and then this dude rolls in and he's got like
what you were just talking about. But I think in
that one, the van was off, so he's got one
of those snack truck looking things but it's a sketch.
And he rolls up in a police station and then
they're just putting the vending machine in there, and the
desk sergeant's like, hey, what are you doing. Where's Bill?
And he's like oh, He's say, you know, Bill, he's

(37:05):
a loser. The guys like I waves his hand at
him and then not good security. Wasn't it in the
Batman movie. Wasn't the whole thing like, Oh, it's it's on,
but it's not plugged in, which seems like an incredible oversight.
Same thing just rolls up in there like you're not
the guy I've ever seen before, ever in my life.

(37:26):
So you're telling me that if later today Ross and I,
wearing like the warrior stash that Elon wore on SNL,
showed up with the truck in Smithfield somewhere one of
the meat packing plans and just rolled up there and
pretended like we knew what was up. You guys will
give me eighty thousand pounds of meat, no questions asked.

(37:51):
There's no security on that. That sounds like a deal man,
no way, really, Why Oh.

Speaker 2 (37:56):
These guys just dropped off a vending machine for me.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
Oh is that okay? I thought that was construction so exciting. Yeah,
you should put all us right next to you that
in there. It look at all the chips, you should
probably get them before they're gone. But not for the
reason you think. Yeah, that's a that's like a So
many movies.

Speaker 2 (38:19):
Get right, and it's always like it's like a super
common thing, like oh, here comes Bob again, replacing the
vending machine again. Like that that shouldn't be an occurrence
where you're like, oh, this is happening again. You should
be like, this is weird. I didn't know we needed
a new machine.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
I think they replaced the venue machine in the break
room once and it was when they decided they were
going to put the healthy thing in.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Dude, they did it once in like twenty years. Yeah,
and they replaced the good machine with the machine full
of like healthy stuff.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
Or no to be healthy or it's just much smaller
versions of stuff that's quote unquote bad but for the
same price. So like, so I don't want to knock
on there because there's some stuff and that's pretty good.
But like, that's the only vending machine replacement in the
all the years that I've ever noticed at you know,

(39:04):
at the old iHeart facility, and it hasn't blown up yet.
But maybe this thing in Ross's office, well I don't know,
don't know the answer to that, but yeah, they have
not found either of the trucks nor the meat, so
we'll see what's happening there. But like, don't you guys
I know there's a guy's driving right now that show up.

(39:26):
You go to pick up a load, and could you
just show up and if you like, you know, look
like you knew what was going on, they would just
load it without asking questions. Is there no paperwork? The
whole thing is weird because like it's a trucking company
they said they didn't recognize. So if I just pretend
to have a trucking company name, I can have all

(39:47):
the meat, and Ross can have all the eggs, you know,
for his deck. That's actually pretty terrifying from a food
handling standpoint, Just a little bit, all right, seven fourteen
Cacoda Radio program phone number eight eight eight nine three
four seven eight seven four. Now I'm trying to figure

(40:07):
out which meat plan in North Carolina would be best.
I mean, you could go wings, but you want the
good stuff. You want the you know, the high flip stakes,
although they don't have the shelf life necessarily unless you
properly handle them, so that'd be very careful. What I
was looking for a meat manifest figure out what all

(40:29):
they got. Well, chances are if you're anywhere near the
Tennessee border today and there's some dude on the side
of the road selling meat going, oh no, it's from
our farm. Might not be, and he's got probably be
at a very big discount. All right. So I mentioned
yesterday and it's in the news today about some severe

(40:52):
weather we're on the lookout for, and unfortunately in some places,
they they've already found out, so to speak, with tornado outbreaks.
And so imagine my surprise then when I go on
Twitter and I'm greeted with lunatics like I don't know
this woman who's decided this is this is where she

(41:14):
needs to make her political bones. Man.

Speaker 5 (41:17):
So the Red States are getting hit with tornadoes big
time east of Oklahoma and at north in the Ohio
Valley Kentucky. Again, no fem for you. Well, they're gonna
have it hard. It's a pitching.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
No I know exactly.

Speaker 5 (41:44):
Oh, Lady seventeen's over there and I'm right next to
the crooked woman allotment.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
I'll be okay, I just like this is the stuff
I don't understand. I don't I know there were some people,
but like, can you imagine going on after the Pacific
Palace say, it's sure you got a lot of opinions,
but no, you're laughing at literally the homeowners, and its like.

(42:13):
I did see people on the left doing a little
of that because they were rich and they didn't like them.
But I can't even yeah, because the one imagine doing that.

Speaker 2 (42:23):
One thing that never happened, right was a giant storm,
saying western North Carolina where people's homes were just flooded away.
I'm not sure FEMA was definitely there to help. FEMA
was there, right, because Biden was there and we had FEMA.
They had FEMA, right.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
I remember Biden talked to somebody and they said that
everything was great. Then he mentioned that, say who said that?
But that's right. Yeah, I don't know about that. I
don't know about that at all, lady, But yeah, you
need uh Jesus or Thorsine or if you put that
out there. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
But how could you even put that out there in
the universe, because I would be fear like you put
that out there. First off, it's so hateful and spiteful
and evil, I would just assume that I'm gonna get smited.

Speaker 1 (43:08):
Well, it's like that story the other day. I didn't
get into it like I because I'm like, you remember
the pastor story. I told you the other day, there's
this really really horrible story out there of a disabled veteran. Right,
so he I'm not sure exactly what caused, if his
ied or got shot or what, but he ended up
being partially paralyzed. Right, So he's now he's not confined

(43:32):
to a wheelchair and having some significant mental ish excuse me,
medical issues, and then he finds out, like a couple
of weeks ago, that his wife is having an affair
with their pastor, and he then he kills himself. Those
two go to super hell.

Speaker 2 (43:50):
Right, Yeah, being a pastor, I assume you would know
that there's a portion in the Bible that says you
probably shouldn't do that what you do with that kind wife.
I mean, I'm just reading say it explicitly.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
You're wanting people to read, like, okay, just right now,
and it's got a lot of things you're not supposed
to do.

Speaker 2 (44:08):
I've mentioned this in social media, and I'm updating it
every day. I'm reading the Bible for the first time
in my life. My goal is to read it in
an entire year. So three and sixty five days and
every day on Twitter, on my ex account or whatever,
I update what I've read and little notes and everything,
and I've gotten I'm in Leviticus, and even I I
am not full disclosure, not a pastor note, the theological

(44:31):
degree or anything. I know that an Exodus it says
you should not do what that guy did to that
guy's wife. Oh right, there, I have gotten to that point.
Maybe maybe he hasn't gotten to that point. Maybe I'm not.
Maybe maybe he's in Genesis, you know he hasn't got
that point.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
Is it? Is there maybe too many rules in that
list you're referring to, Rember.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
I think what it is.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
You think there's just way too many to remember. Huh.

Speaker 2 (44:57):
It's like Maddi's gonna get that point yet he probably
feels stupid. Now right, it's gonna get and.

Speaker 1 (45:02):
I still take my neighbour's stuff.

Speaker 2 (45:03):
Right the meat you make?

Speaker 1 (45:04):
The meat? Is that okay? I steal the meat.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
I mean, if they give it to you, do you
have a.

Speaker 1 (45:10):
Man, I'm gonna steal it. That's okay.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Though it's not good either.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
Oh come on, man, Yeah, it's not good.

Speaker 2 (45:17):
Typically it's frowned upon.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
How about the lord's name? But in vain? Is that okay?

Speaker 2 (45:22):
I would not do that?

Speaker 1 (45:23):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (45:24):
Not do.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
I mean, if you're a pastor, you know what I mean.
I mean, you should probably know these things.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
Oh those rules are only for pastors.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
Or do they teach you that in pastor school? Don't.

Speaker 1 (45:32):
I never went to pastor school. I did the catechism stuff,
and I seem to remember them mentioning some stuff about this,
but you know it's been a while. Yeah, so like
go to super Hell. You post videos where Tornado just
you know, mowed through a preschool. You go to super Hell.
I don't make the rules. Apparently somebody does, because Ross

(45:54):
was reading about them and was able to report back
to us. Did They didn't write him down though, right?

Speaker 2 (46:00):
They actually wrote down like twice believe it or not.
First time there was an episode, there was an incident
brought down.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
Law making is a messy business.

Speaker 2 (46:10):
I could be wrong. I mean I am an amateur
in this, in this role here right right with the materials,
so I could be wrong.

Speaker 1 (46:17):
Okay, all right, Well, hey, once you get through, I
don't want to spoil it for you, but I I
feel like you're on the right track there, uh with
with that? Yeah? Just just sheer lunacy, man, just just
evilness permeating some of this stuff, and I don't. There's
so many ways you can go and just be an
obnoxious a hole for political reason the purposes. People do

(46:41):
it all day every day. It's called Twitter, and you
know lots of other social media. It's a whole it's
a whole genre. It' say. It's a niche thing that
is unfortunately not as niche as it probably should be.
So uh, just something to think about, all right. Reminder,
Pete Klener will be joining us. That's coming up here

(47:01):
at eighth five. I'll hit a break. We've got another
piece of audio for you, and it's a doozy thank
you New Hampshire that's coming up next. Hang On, I
saw this original post. It was posted actually this was
posted on the thirty first. I happen to see it
over the weekend, or not over the weekend, but I
like on Monday and I just saw it. It didn't

(47:25):
have a ton of responses yet, but somebody wrote, does
anyone have any random fun facts about a very niche subject.
I'm bored and love learning random things, and I'm like,
all right, it's engagement farming, but I'll bite so I
click in there and there's some really cool stuff So
if you look at some of the top rated comments,
here's a dude who knows way too much about octopuses. Ross,

(47:49):
did you know octopuses have three hearts and their blood
is blue because it's copper instead of iron. Now what
are you gonna use that for? I don't know, But
I didn't know that. Now I do. There's some good
rabbit holes. I was not familiar with linguistic relativity. Relativity hypothesis.
Have you guys ever heard of this? And it's actually interesting. Basically,

(48:13):
the grammar and vocabulary and words that are available within
a particular language, within a particular era can be even
though you have the same language, or at least base
of language. You know, how they tell you if you
ever got there, if you ever got a time machine
and they deposited you in like, you know, medieval Britain,

(48:35):
even though they're speaking English, you wouldn't really know it.
You'd pick up a word here, a word there, but
it would sound pretty foreign to you. Well, in the
same way that it doesn't connect people through the years,
it also interprets how we interpret the world because maybe
we don't have words for stuff. Maybe, And if you

(48:57):
speak any if you speak another language. This this quickly
becomes very, very possible because the way that you structure sentences.
It's one of the things that has really hampered my
ability to improve my Spanish more so than just kind
of functional conversational because like the order of how you
say things and describe things is different.

Speaker 2 (49:20):
You see this in Vietnam as well, where like sometimes
there's not an English equivalent to the word you're looking for, right.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
And then also you hear it even if you don't
speak about you hear it when non native English speakers
speak English, they put the order of the words different.
So you know, instead of saying a blue thing in
a lot of languages, including Spanish, you might say the
thing and then describe it as blue. Does that make
sense to you, all right? So you know it would

(49:49):
be a pepper spicy, or a car blue or and
not all the time. I'm not a language learning teacher,
but that's an interesting hole and I'm not gonna lie.
I read a few articles after that it makes sense
and and and you see examples of it when we're
trying to figure out what do they mean by a
well regulated militia. That's the big one I think in

(50:12):
the US that we can look at because they don't
mean what you think militia means. So that's pretty cool.
But it was pretty high level stuff for the most part,
like you know, people who clearly were you know, had
an immense amount of knowledge in very specific topics due
to their job or training, whatever it is, and wanted

(50:34):
to share it. And I spent a lot of time
digging through it. And then some poor women came along
and and here was the deal. They were. They were
clouded on her and joking with her. And it could
have just been kind of a nerdy thing because she's back.
She was pushing back after what she posted. It's like
you all suck. I just thought it was a fun fact. Ah,

(50:56):
But then somebody. I don't think people started going out
for some sort of racist reason. I think that people
defending her were trying to speak it into existence because
I didn't even realize she was black. I just didn't,
because it was just why I read what she wrote,
and I started laughing, as did everybody else. So are

(51:18):
you ready for the fun fact? You're ready to have
a fact that's a lot of fun. Here we go.
Our planet doesn't get heavier with buildings because all the
materials used to build them. We're already here.

Speaker 2 (51:35):
I mean, I mean, it's true. It's a good point.
It does not.

Speaker 1 (51:41):
I mean technically without getting into like meteorites. And so
let me let me do some Hey, Ross, do me
a favor. Stand up, would you share?

Speaker 2 (51:49):
No problem? All right, I'll stand up.

Speaker 1 (51:51):
A big thing is he loves his chair. All right. Now,
on the count of three, I'm gonna want you to
jump in the air like you're doing a vertical to
comboy out. Okay, sure, all right, so uh and I
supposely what happens here? All right? Ready? One, two, three?
Go oh oh, I'm still in the air. Oh my god,
the earth is lighter. Can you feel it? Not you,

(52:14):
you won't know you're up in the air. Now you're down.

Speaker 2 (52:16):
Okay, that's a big jump. No, that was it.

Speaker 1 (52:18):
There's some hangtime there, Michael Jordan, good for you twenty
eight every morning. That was true. I didn't realize you
guys all feel that where the earth got lighter for
a moment.

Speaker 2 (52:28):
My concern is that we're all going to jump at
the same time when you do this radio bit, when
you're explaining, and everyone else is gonna jump at the
same time.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
Like this the end of an eighties sitcom where they
do the freeze frame jump in the area. So if
everyone jumps at the same time. Hearing that, I'm concerned.
My concern is that the Earth is going to flip over.
No no, no, no, no. Wouldn't it shoot up in
the air, right, it would shoot up in the air
all the weights Now if or do you have to
if you did it all around the world at the

(52:58):
same time, maybe, But let's say that just in the
western hemisphere we.

Speaker 2 (53:03):
Did it, full disclosure. Not a physicist, so not at all.

Speaker 1 (53:07):
There's no there's no learning going on here. Yeah, yeah, slowly, slowly,
I don't think will do it readjust to the Earth's
mass here.

Speaker 2 (53:16):
They don't pay me to stand dude.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
And and let me just give you some of the responses,
because it wasn't people just outright yelling atter. It was
people adding different theories to it. So everyone was having fun,
all right. So see if you can answer some of
these questions they attempted to use to debunker or just
random facts. Uh, this guy one of the And by
the way, I love this because the count's name is
Ross Creations. But I don't think it's you uh, he wrote.

(53:41):
A response, he goes, things don't stop existing when your
eyes are closed. They're still there, but your eyelids are
blocking your view. Right, it's that hateful stuff. It's just
people having fun. Man.

Speaker 2 (53:52):
But but it is a good way to hide though,
if you do that, if you if you cover your face.
Mm hmmm, no one could.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
You, I wrote. Every kid learns that right with the
blankets early on, right right now, the monsters can't catch you.
Have any monsters have been under your bed, going oh
if only oh, why do you have to have blankets? Okay,
this guy writes, but when we lose weight, wouldn't earth
be lighter?

Speaker 2 (54:19):
I have a theory that when when one person loses weight,
another person in the universe gives it to another. Poor bastard.
That's really a theory I have.

Speaker 1 (54:27):
So whatever whatever horrible thing you were gonna shove in
your face, you avoided it because you're not doing that,
and that it was there for somebody else to shove
in their face.

Speaker 2 (54:36):
I think nothing is wasted, and I think it's an
evil thing that happens, like, hey, I've lost all this weight,
and there's somebody else like some and somewhere other part
of the earth. They're like, why did they gain twenty pounds?
It's not fair?

Speaker 1 (54:47):
All right? How about this? How about trees? Plants? A
little one gets bigger? What up with that? That's a
good point, Caleb, This is fun again. It's not mean.

Speaker 2 (55:05):
Now now the tree getting bigger, when did that increase
the weight of the earth.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
Well, that's what he's saying, because it's like the reverse.
What about yeah, plant small one, why it get big?
That's good stuff right there. When Elon sends a rocket up,
your your theory falls apart. No, that would be in
keeping with their theory, wouldn't that. She was talking about buildings,
not rockets that leave. And it just goes on and on,

(55:37):
and the people are like literally trying to run calculations. Okay,
but if you do shoot six people up in a
rocket and people have, you know, one hundred babies a
second or whatever in this country, then technically it would
be heavier. And why don't babies add to the mass
because the stork brings them from heaven? Come on, sir,

(55:58):
what are you even doing here? There's a really funny thread.
I'm a retweet right now. I already retweeted it, but
I'll retweet it again. All right, reposted, Yeah, there's I
could do the whole show just reading the comments, but
I will not force that upon you. So what are

(56:19):
our weather odds today? Do we know? Oh? He's there?
Hey look at that? Hey what's up? Oh you know
it's Friday, It's Friday. Testing this woman's theory. Uh. She
was telling the internet, there's a hey, any signs fun
facts anyone knows? And she wrote, our planet doesn't get
heavier with buildings because all the material used to build

(56:41):
them already here. Interesting. So when a clouds, when the
clouds are holding a bunch of rain but they've not
yet deposited, technically the Earth is lighter at that moment,
right at the surface. Yes, I'm not a science unmars
things here.

Speaker 8 (57:02):
I'm wondering if the surface I would say, yes, right,
and the clouds are not considered get into the something sphere,
the weather meteor school whatever. It was a long time ago,
So don't expect much of that out of me. But
how about warm? This is an easy one, pretty wide

(57:24):
temperature range. Yesterday upper seventies in the triad to the
lot mid eighties across the triangle, and today I think
we all get into the middle maybe upper eighties, and
in record territory, so eighty eight the record at Raleigh.
I think that's attainable already in the seventies and many
spots this morning. For the Triad, the record for the
date is eighty six, so maybe a little tougher there,

(57:45):
but either way, warm afternoon. Satellit pictures sewing clouds, there's
some breaks of sunshine. I think that's about a partial
sun today and tomorrow when tomorrow we'll get into the
mid upper eighties again, I don't think ninety, but still
in record territory before the chain comes in. That's gonna
be Sunday afternoon. But again, mid upper eighties are still possible.
I think it'll be a little cooler, maybe low eighties

(58:07):
for the Triad.

Speaker 1 (58:09):
Have your rainfall possible, I don't think severe.

Speaker 8 (58:11):
We are in the margin at risk of severe storms
Sunday Sunday night and then showers Monday and some Chilia
air coming in. We space spend Tuesday morning in a
little bit thirties, so I might be talking about a
little frost and in the mountains maybe even some upper twenties,
so little chili blast coming in.

Speaker 1 (58:25):
It's gonna beautiful next week.

Speaker 8 (58:26):
We'll lose some of this humidity that's around now. You know,
temperatures right now in the seventies around the triangle, with
due points getting close to the seventies too. I mean,
this is an air mass that almost has like this
summertime feel to it, even around Winston Salem, Greensboro. Low
seventies and mid sixties du points pretty warm for a

(58:46):
Friday morning in early April.

Speaker 1 (58:48):
Casey, oh yeah, oh yeah, this ain't normal. Nope, it's abnormal. Man,
all right, appreciate it, Thank you very much. Ray yep Ross. Somebody,
one of our listeners I think, has a pretty good
theory on your what if we all jumped at once?
He surmises the Earth would spin faster because less drag.

(59:09):
That might be a good point. But if we were
really what if we all ran in the opposite direction
of the spin of the Earth in place at the same.

Speaker 2 (59:17):
Time, I'd be like the flash, we could light.

Speaker 1 (59:20):
We could do what Superman did, right, Hey, you go
back in time? Yeah, well that's what we run the
other way. So but if we run that way, like,
shouldn't we age faster? It turns into what's his Name's
planet with the big waves at that point. I don't know. Again,
we're not physicists, we're you know, just people think about

(59:40):
things logically. All right, it's seven forty seven. Hang on,
what if we all just stand on the Earth and
we all excel in one direction? Could that speed or
slow the spin of the Earth.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
I mean, it's very concerning because many people say the
Earth is flat. Many scientists say this, many many do.
Many scientists say the Earth is flat. So if we
all jump at the same time, there's a concern that
we'll push ourselves away from the Sun.

Speaker 1 (01:00:04):
Well, look, if we're operating under this new premise, if
what if we're all towards the edge, then I think
it flips over. I think you're you're earlier concerner.

Speaker 2 (01:00:13):
It could bring in a new ice age.

Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Though. What if when we're excelling, instead of just blowing,
we do the thing where it's a deep breath so
it's all heated air, and then we excel it like
you do when it's cold out to your breath. All right,
So full help the ice walls, right, full disclosure. I
don't know anything about thermodynamics. I don't even know what
I say is to be honest, So I can't answer that.
So these are these are untested theories, but I would

(01:00:36):
say be careful. Just because you can, it doesn't mean
you should. Famous scientists said that one time, the retrospect
dude was right, why can't we just have fun with
people having to turn and oh they're attacking? Or does this?
And I'm like, nah, most of the people clowning on
her are not white people anyway, and they're they're like

(01:00:59):
nice clowning on her. It's almost it's you know what
it is, it's a blesser, bless your heart moment.

Speaker 2 (01:01:03):
Yeah, but she don't need to make it a race thing,
like you're not going to assume automatically, oh that's from
a black person or a white person. Or it used
to be like, well, why that's a crazy thing you
just said.

Speaker 1 (01:01:12):
I didn't even think that's a dumb person. I'm just like,
that's somebody who saw something on TikTok and then cut
and pasted it. And later in the response because she's
like she keeps posting. She literally said she saw it
on TikTok and thought that she would share, and why,
you know, this is why we can't have nice things.
And I partially agree with her, But it was pretty
clear from that thread that the people who were posting

(01:01:34):
this stuff were like really into the topics, and it
was a lot of stuff I had never heard of,
and I book barked a couple of them. That's pretty cool.
I probably could use that factoid in the story coming up.
But nah, Then when a different well was see what
Pete Callender thinks. He's probably more. He probably knows about

(01:01:55):
thermo dynamics, right, Maybe, I don't know. We'll ask him.

Speaker 2 (01:02:00):
I mean he went to MIT, but I think he
was just the janitor.

Speaker 1 (01:02:06):
I mean it wasn't like solving unprovable theorems on.

Speaker 2 (01:02:12):
A way I mean in his spare time, yes, okay, and.

Speaker 1 (01:02:17):
Then took full credit when confronted.

Speaker 2 (01:02:18):
Right, No, he ran away from it. It did not
want the responsibility. So I'm just here to clean the floors.
That's what I'm doing here, okay.

Speaker 1 (01:02:25):
Hey. Also, I know more now about meat shipping. And
don't get me wrong, I know a little some about
meat production, well some some, but I the only here's
what I know about shipping meat. We ours is alive
when we do it, and your only job when the
loader gets there is to make sure he's not making
the cows run, not speedloading them, because they can get

(01:02:48):
injured and or they lose weight doing that. But more so,
you don't want to get injured because if you deliver
a downer cow, then you probably not gonna get paid
for it. So your job is to basic watch the
truck driver, make sure that they're not speedloading the cows,
and there's pandemonium, and then that's it, and what happens
after that none of my business. Tell I want to eat.

(01:03:10):
So with that in mind, I did not know about
how you could just show up at a meat packing
plant with a truck and be like, hey, I'm the
meat guy, give me all the meat. Because somebody did
that with two trucks tole eighty thousand dollars worth of meat.
So from a series of our listeners out there who
are in the trucking industry, every single one of them

(01:03:31):
has laid out in detail why it had to be
an inside job or you didn't just show up and
they give you eighty thousand pounds.

Speaker 2 (01:03:39):
What if it was super complex though, like we said,
with a fake truck and a fake manifest and a
fake badge and all kind of stuff, All.

Speaker 1 (01:03:44):
Right, So here's the one guy. They don't do meat,
but it's some sort of food. He doesn't specify what
it is. And he said that we have a driver.
He goes, one of the concerns that we have is
there is a thing where drivers will essentially be doubling
up to avoid the rules, unrest and and they will
like swap out play. I don't again, I don't know.

(01:04:05):
I'm reading this from people seem to know what they're
talking about. And he goes, So, in a situation where
we had somebody show up and it was not a
driver we were familiar with, even if it was a
company we might be familiar with, our policy would be
to check with the company to make sure that they
have the right driver. And I don't know what that
process looks like, but that would make sense to me.

(01:04:26):
We didn't get a chance to chat with him last
week because he had to go like sol Middle East
crisis stuff or whatever. I don't know, but he's back.
Our radio buddy to the South, Pete Calendar Middays WBT Pete.
What's going on? Man?

Speaker 3 (01:04:40):
Oh nothing, I don't not a lot nothing.

Speaker 1 (01:04:44):
Thank you for saving last week or whatever you were doing.
So yeah, that's cool. You can talk about the Dinga swords.
That's fine.

Speaker 3 (01:04:52):
Yeah, I didn't get to.

Speaker 1 (01:04:55):
Luckily, the news cycle has not forgotten us, and they
had one or two things first though. I got I like,
when you see this, do you see the story of
the dude in Asheville who took him machete and decided
he was gonna rob a grocery store.

Speaker 3 (01:05:09):
I did see the headline. I did not read this.

Speaker 1 (01:05:11):
See what he stole? Do you see what he stole?

Speaker 3 (01:05:14):
Was this the perfume thief? U?

Speaker 1 (01:05:17):
He sold a cinnabon and incense. And I gotta tell
you that's the most Ashville crime I've ever heard, right,
go steal? So do you miss it a little? Now
that you're not you know, square in the land of
crazy and you know, back in Charlotte whatever, do you
miss a little of this? Dude? If you if I
asked one of the ais, I'm like, show me a

(01:05:38):
picture of a person who would steal incense with a machete.
I'm like that, you nailed it, You got it, that's it.

Speaker 3 (01:05:44):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you've got the the you know, the
Ashralian you know, more than likely anti Second Amendment aspect
of it. Right, so he's carrying it rather than a
firearm because you know, anti dunn while he commits the
the crime of stealing the incense. But also a quick question,
if you're stealing a cinnabon, wouldn't that serve the role

(01:06:09):
of the incense.

Speaker 1 (01:06:11):
I think this dude was just high a f Let's
just be honest, because they you know what, you know,
how they cottom? He went around the corner. He's sitting
there eating the cinnabon.

Speaker 3 (01:06:19):
Right, so got the monkeys? Yeah and yeah right? So
but then but then why the incense?

Speaker 1 (01:06:28):
Also? Why are they selling incense at grocery stores in Asheville?

Speaker 3 (01:06:33):
Really are you asking that question?

Speaker 1 (01:06:35):
Come on, man, that can't be that much demand. Is
it in the Petulie aisle? What ale is that in?
I've been there. I've been in Harris Teeter a couple
of times in Asheville. I don't remember there being an
incense aisle? Is that near the crystals? Is that by thestal?

Speaker 3 (01:06:49):
Yeah? Ingles? Also they've got them there. If you go
down the aisle where usually they've got like, uh, the
facial tissue, right, cleanexes and stuff or maybe automotive and
you go down that aisle you will find all of
the candles and fabreezes and all of the plugins and

(01:07:10):
all of that stuff, and they usually have a couple
of uh.

Speaker 1 (01:07:17):
Ross, did you know that? Did you know where the
incense was at the grocery store? Ross had no idea.
It's weird, you do you? You know you know exactly where?

Speaker 2 (01:07:27):
Well, you know when in Rome where it was?

Speaker 1 (01:07:30):
So yeah, yeah, so I love that story. Now what
happens now? What prompted him to this crime? If not
a case of the munchies and the need for some incense,
perhaps looming incense tariffs? I don't know, Maybe that's possible.

Speaker 3 (01:07:45):
Yeah, right, want to get it, you want to get
ahead of that curve.

Speaker 1 (01:07:48):
I'm assuming I was looking at your prep sheet here
because you allow you, you grant me access to it,
and I was just a giver. It just says new
World order getting liberated from my money? Is then it?

Speaker 3 (01:08:00):
Pariff?

Speaker 1 (01:08:01):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 3 (01:08:03):
Well, this is what I am told we are, we
are embarking upon. We are Dare I call it a reset?
A grain reset? Maybe do we have the.

Speaker 1 (01:08:12):
Red button that Hillary brought to putin or not?

Speaker 3 (01:08:16):
I don't know. Maybe he will let us borrow it
back if they still have it, or maybe it got
put out at a Moscow yard sale.

Speaker 1 (01:08:23):
I don't know, but probably yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:08:25):
Yeah, So the yeah, I mean this is to hear
the to hear the defenders of what we are now
going to be subjected to, barring any kind of either
voluntary walk back from the administration or any kind of
effort to block it from a Republican Congress, which I

(01:08:46):
am doubtful either of those things will occur unless sufficient
pressure is brought to bear, then yeah, it's gonna it
will reset the entire global trade order. And for people
that are on sort of the Bernie side of Bernie

(01:09:06):
Sanders on the on that command control economy, you know,
we can manage all of this stuff, and you know protectionism,
and that's sort of if you are on that side
of the economic theory scale, this is this is what
you want to see. And we're hearing people say we're
going to have to go through short term pain in
order to make this correction. So they're telling you like

(01:09:29):
you will, like you don't need I've seen people saying
you don't need to buy that smartphone, you don't need
to buy that gaming console, and it reminded me of
something that I heard from the New World Order guys,
right when they were talking about you will you will
own nothing and be happy. Right, And that's what Now
I'm being pitched from the people that saw that World

(01:09:54):
Order as a as a threat. And now they're making
the same arguments to me because this is going to
America stronger again or poorer?

Speaker 1 (01:10:02):
Not sure?

Speaker 3 (01:10:04):
And yeah, this is it.

Speaker 1 (01:10:05):
And I said this, Do you think America was getting
fundamental finish you?

Speaker 3 (01:10:11):
No? No, I said this before. Like what this comes
down to is like I am the fish in the
water not knowing it's wet. Because I have always understood
high tariffs on imports and such to be a tax
on American people. I have always understood the smooth Holly
terr Effact to be a an accelerant and a prolonger

(01:10:33):
of the Great Depression. And maybe all of that stuff
is false, right, Maybe the only person that doesn't think
that was true was Donald Trump. And his view on
trade deficits is not kind of crazy, but is in
fact the truth, which is that if we haven't trade imbalanced,

(01:10:55):
then that means the other country that we are buying
stuff from their companies and adding stuff for those purchases
that that is somehow ripping us off.

Speaker 1 (01:11:05):
Okay, so just some people are clear when you when
the chart that you probably saw following the press conference
on Monday was not simply a percentage of a tariff.
So it's really easy to point out that the US
percentage for cars imported from Europe is two point five percent,
exported to Europe is ten percent. However, when those numbers

(01:11:28):
start to grow is for the thing that Pete was
just talking about, because the calculations in the White House
also included things like that taxes built in there, and
and also just because we let's say, even if we
have an even amount of tariffs, if we if one
country buys more than the other, then there's likely going

(01:11:49):
to be a trade imbalance. It's not as simple as that.
And they worked that percentage in with the numbers.

Speaker 3 (01:11:56):
Yeah, but really it's that simple. But you yeah, explained it.
That is what happened. They they took the trade deficit,
which okay, let's say you're the rich nation. I'm the
poor nation. All I produce basically is raw goods. That's
all I can muster. Right, My people make a dollar
a year. We are very poor. Okay, So we go
and we get all of this stuff out of the ground,

(01:12:17):
and you need this stuff out of the ground because
you use a lot of it in your manufacturing or whatever.
So we sell you a lot of the raw goods,
but we have no money, so we're not buying the
stuff that you're making because your stuff you're making is
way too expensive for us to purchase. So we don't
purchase much from you, if anything at all. That's a
trade deficit, and in Donald Trump's mind that means I

(01:12:40):
am ripping you off. This is what makes it so crazy.
And then they say, do.

Speaker 1 (01:12:46):
You think that there are fundamental trade imbalances with countries
that are not surely that though? A yeah, okay, right,
And that's.

Speaker 3 (01:12:53):
Why I said, if he wants to go after like,
I've never been a proponent of trying to getting most
Favored Nation status, I've not I understood what the argument was,
maybe they'll be less commy and they'll you know, they'll
adopt free market ways and all of this. But it
was it was a bad deal and it has been
and they've taken advantage for ever since. And so there's

(01:13:15):
no there's no point in continuing that trade relationship. We
never would have traded like that with the Soviets. But
China's comments too, So why are we doing this? Right? So,
I'm all in favor of true reciprocal tariffs. Right, if
a country is blocking access of our products and services,
which by the way, that Trump formula did not account

(01:13:36):
for either, if they're blocking access of our companies into
their market, then we can block access to them. That's fair. Right,
But when you take a country like South Korea and
their tariffs are like two percent i'm sorry, less than
one percent, like point seventy nine, and you hit them

(01:13:58):
with a ten percent tariff, that's not reciprocal any longer. Right,
You've got some zero tariffs on us and we're hitting
them with Some countries have surpluses and we're hitting them
with tariffs.

Speaker 1 (01:14:10):
That's right. But if but if if the simple active
import adds both a tariff and a vat, which is
what a lot of this is like, I'll give you
I'll give you an example. If you go to most
countries in Central America, South America, chances are if you
buy an American product in most of those countries, you're
going to pay about a thirty percent pop on it

(01:14:30):
and it's like and half of its import or tariff
and the other half is that okay, So if not
for the import, the that would not be attached because
what these countries do is they largely waive the VAT
for their own products. So it's it is it is
a double edged thing as or as far with the

(01:14:51):
final consumers so well.

Speaker 3 (01:14:53):
And that's why that's why this formula that the Trump
administration is using is inappropriate because they're not targeting individual
countries for those types of that's that they apply on
certain products or others and whatever they are.

Speaker 1 (01:15:08):
They are liquor liquor VAT pay an American bottle of liquor,
but they're not pay on a bottle of liquor from
either that country or some country and its near vicinity.
So about a bottle of liquor and Nicaragua and it
was produced in Honduras, I wouldn't get the VAT. And
it is only because it's not produced there that the

(01:15:28):
that attaches. That's their argument just to be great. I
don't know if it's a good one, but maybe.

Speaker 3 (01:15:33):
Right they're they're saying, but they're saying that that is
captured inside of the exports minus imports. That's that's what
they're saying, is that that captures all of the quote cheating.
In other words, the trade deficit captures that trading. That's
their argument, and it does it. It's it captures way
more than that. It captures any kind of an imbalance

(01:15:56):
where I may be exporting to you. This is why, Like, look,
if you want to go and do reciprocal terrorists to
address the thing that you're talking about, then I'm all
for it. Becau's fair. It's fair. However, just simply saying
we export more than we import, therefore we're getting robbed,
we're getting cheated, that's not that's not correct.

Speaker 1 (01:16:18):
What do you think? Well, what's gonna happen? Stock market
did its thing yesterday. I I I do appreciate now
that we're willing to use the word recession, because I remember,
remember we stopped using that word time, good time. But
they're going to be quick on it. The problem is
is there's a lot of very interesting arguments and discussions

(01:16:40):
to be had, and so I what do I do.
I'm like, I wonder what MSNBC and CNBC you're talking about.
Because I'm dumb, I'll put I'll stick a quarter in
that crotch punching machine once in a while, and low
and behold. I go on there and thank god, I
went to the grocery store Monday, Pete, because apparently, ever
since the Tuesday press conference, some lunar tick was saying
that groceries are up one hundred and fifty percent. M

(01:17:04):
have you been to the grocery store last week? Ross says,
it's not that way in wake Forest yet, But I
don't know. I heard it on my true.

Speaker 3 (01:17:12):
I have not been to the grocery store since Liberation Day.

Speaker 1 (01:17:15):
Oh wow. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:17:20):
Now look, look here's the thing. I don't know what
this is going to do. Nobody does. That's that's the uncertainty.
That's what has the markets worried, is because nobody knows
what's going to happen. And you've got miss or mixed
messaging coming out of the White House, coming out of
the Republicans on Capitol Hill. Nobody really understands what's going on.

(01:17:40):
It's chaos. And then you have people that are like, well,
that's Donald Trump's signature negotiation style, and maybe it is,
and maybe that's what he's doing, but he's saying it's
not negotiation this is not up for negotiation, so I
don't know. And then there's the question did he even
have the legal authority to do this, because I would
submit he does not. This is there is no there's

(01:18:01):
no global emergency that requires the executive to act without
the power and backing of Congress to impose tariffs. That
is a congressional.

Speaker 1 (01:18:11):
Duty except for historical but it's not always been. And
I understand, I understand the argument that, well, if it's
not an emergency situation, then he should go through the
slower process. But presidents, every president has done stuff right,
whether they're sanctioning Venezuela or Russia. And what do they
do it with. They do it with tariffs. They do
it with those things. And so Barack Obama could roll

(01:18:32):
out and be like, we're mad at so and so
and so we're either going to have a tariff or
moratorium in some cases, and that is a unilateral action
by the president.

Speaker 3 (01:18:42):
Assigning sanctions to a foreign hostile nation is not the
same as doing a global tariff on every single country.

Speaker 1 (01:18:49):
If you think the country again I'm just devil's advocate here,
if you think that they are ripping you off through
hostile trade, practices, which isn't always tariffs. Uh, you know China,
Remember China's done up and all that steel.

Speaker 3 (01:19:02):
If you want to target, if you want to target that,
target them. But if you want to target a single
country for dumping, then you go after the single target, right,
or you just cut off all trade with that country
whatever specifically. But what you're doing is you're creating an
entire regime, the whole framework for the entire globe. Right,
And that is beyond the scope. So what are we

(01:19:25):
saying that we have one guy, We have a president
that gets elected and therefore he can then essentially raise
taxes on consumers in America. He can hold global trade
without any kind of checker balance on that. I do
not believe that's what the founders intended when they took
all of the financial power and nested it in the house.

Speaker 1 (01:19:46):
Right. But to be fair, the founders at the time,
and for many many years after, the country was essentially
funded by tariffs. Correct, so approved by Congress. Correct, Yes,
but that's we plan. And then so we got away
from that, we're like, well, we're not going to do
this is not gonna be our main funding mechanism, even
though we have the financial market that most producers in

(01:20:10):
most countries, in most places of the world want to
be a part of. Hey, real quick, I just got
thirty seconds. But this hell whole country, imaginary country you're
running Pete's stand or whatever it is. Yeah, you know
I'm not going to buy your stuff and you can't
afford to buy my Can my tourists? Can? I can
let us tourist still come over there and act obnoxious
and entitled at resorts where you're going to waste more

(01:20:31):
food in the day than most people eating a month?

Speaker 3 (01:20:33):
Is that a way we do that?

Speaker 1 (01:20:37):
God?

Speaker 3 (01:20:38):
Where a year?

Speaker 1 (01:20:39):
It'll be great? All right, Pete, I got a roll man,
Thank you very much on tariff discussion. Sorry about your
money liberated? All right, We'll talk to Pete once again
next week and be right back. For those of you
who are now upset with Pete's take on tariffs, why
are you yelling at me? Yell at Pete? Do it
on Twitter? He loves that. He loves going back and

(01:21:01):
forth with people on Twitter yelling at me he's dumb.
Or later it'll be on the air. You can call
in the streaming them between noon and three. But question
my child, I don't know, you know what, Let's get
an arbory. Let's get a tiebreaker in here. Let's get
Nancy Pelosi's take on terror show.

Speaker 7 (01:21:18):
How far does China have to go, how much more repression,
how big a trade deficit and loss of jobs for
the American worker, and how much more dangerous proliferation has
to exist before members of this House of Representatives will
say I will not endorse the status quo. Oh, okay,

(01:21:39):
As I mentioned, it's about jobs, proliferation, and human rights.
And there are those who say we shouldn't link human
rights in trade and proliferation and trade.

Speaker 1 (01:21:46):
I disagree.

Speaker 7 (01:21:47):
Oh, but if we just want to take up this
issue on the basis of economics alone, indeed, China should
not receive Most Favored Nation status, all right, for several
reasons that I'd like to go into it. To her,
I'd like to call the attention of our colleagues to
this chart on the status quo that the business community
is asking each and every one of you, to each

(01:22:09):
and every one of us to endorse today.

Speaker 1 (01:22:12):
Okay, all right, this is not what I expected when
I saw this audio here. So Nancy Pelosi, seemingly breaking
from really her party status and all right, go on, ma'am,
I am inspired.

Speaker 7 (01:22:23):
Now we have a thirty four billion dollar trade deficit
with China. The nineteen ninety five figure.

Speaker 1 (01:22:30):
I'm sorry, what that's the most recent one you have.
That's so weird. Why is that the most recent one
you have?

Speaker 7 (01:22:34):
Will be over forty billion dollars for nineteen ninety six.
Since the Tenement Square massacre, this figure has increased one
thousand percent from three and a half billion then to
about thirty four billion dollars now. In terms of tariffs,
it's think it's interesting to note that the average US
MFN tariff on Chinese goods coming into the United States

(01:22:56):
is two percent.

Speaker 1 (01:22:57):
All right, well, look, I'm not going to play the
whole thing ross. That's a woman changed right right, clearly,
Clearly she recognizes and has some concerns with what's going on.
By the way, I don't think she sounded more youthful
in quite some time. So I don't know what it
is that's working out.

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
It's crazy to see her in nineteen ninety six. I'm sorry,
it's it's crazy to see Nancy Pelosi in nineteen ninety
six looking like that.

Speaker 1 (01:23:21):
What does that have to do with ninety six. I
don't understand.

Speaker 2 (01:23:24):
No, no, nineteen.

Speaker 1 (01:23:25):
Wait are you saying that that audio is not from
this week?

Speaker 3 (01:23:28):
No it is not.

Speaker 7 (01:23:28):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:23:29):
Oh wow, super confused.

Speaker 1 (01:23:32):
Yeah, I was so duped, man. I thought she just
got a hair dyed, right, wasn't drinking that yesterday?

Speaker 2 (01:23:39):
A Man's Epic and the botox and all the films.

Speaker 1 (01:23:41):
In California acail Man. Yeah, so you're oh, so she
felt all that same way. That literally is Trump's basic
position right now, but in ninety six it's different. Now,
how's it what we're not dealing with literally China?

Speaker 2 (01:23:56):
Well, I mean it's twenty twenty five now, so.

Speaker 1 (01:23:59):
Right, I got that calendar. So so you're just you're
just pointing out, it's been thirty plus years. What what
What has fundamentally changed in thirty years? Not really? Our
tariff and taxing policies not much, pretty pretty much the same.
Some go up, some go down. We may never we

(01:24:21):
may never know what drove this woman into the political wilderness.
But very sad to hear that. You know what it is?

Speaker 2 (01:24:27):
She's pissed off, probably for the same reason Pete is.
She probably gets all her clothes from shine or Sheen
or however you pronounce it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:34):
The woman with nine dollars pints of ice cream in
her fridge is buying from the website that I see.
All the girls on TikTok do they know better?

Speaker 2 (01:24:43):
I'm telling you, women and Pete, they love the shine.
They love it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:47):
I don't even know that's pronounced that she is, Yeah, whatever,
they love it, the t MoU and shine or sheen.
That's all I knew. Here's what I know. Every time,
like one of the favorite genres on social media is
somebody's you know, they order some dress, but they order
some anything right, and it shows up and it's so
clearly not what they ordered or such garbage. Then they

(01:25:08):
make a sad video right where here's the picture of
the listing. Here's what I got. And it's like, I
don't even get into that content. I never watched it.
There's how I keep getting it suggested to me, And
I'm like, you just you keep getting punched in the
mouth that many times. I I just believe you like
getting punched in the mouth.

Speaker 2 (01:25:25):
I didn't know she had that issue as Team You,
because Marky loves Machine. We have so manychine bags and
she's never had an issue with anything from there.

Speaker 1 (01:25:31):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:25:32):
I ever, so I think the main issue is team
you for sure. Okay, but we can agree that Pete
buys his clothes from there.

Speaker 1 (01:25:40):
And at Harris Teeter in the in the Mystic Crystal
Aisle or whatever, which he seemed to know a lot about.
Not something I run across. I heard the I heard
the the spiritual crystals at Wegman's all Bills themed. So
that's good.

Speaker 2 (01:25:55):
I'm gonna have to check that out. And while there,
while in there, I'll just I'll have to pick up
some cookies.

Speaker 1 (01:26:01):
What why would you? You don't have to? This is
going back to our Cinamon discussion, forcing you I have
to before the tariffs kick in. Oh, you know what
I mean. That's a good point. And what does Josh
Allen smelling incense smell like?

Speaker 3 (01:26:17):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (01:26:18):
I don't know what that smells like? A winner smells
like a smells like a goat? Yep, okay, speaking of winners.
Uh So, a little hot mike action here.

Speaker 1 (01:26:29):
This is uh the Teachers Union president for the state
of New Hampshire, and uh she was literally testifying at
the time about or against a parental Bill of rights
that would have included among other things, uh, some semblance
of vouchers in there, but more so on the uh

(01:26:49):
you know, the sex aid and things like that. So
she this is literally what she's there for. It is
part of one of the topics. And she says this
thing to give some sort of advice to to people.
And like she's the teachers' union president testifying against this
movement by Republicans to tamp down on DEI initiatives and

(01:27:11):
create voucher programs for private schools. And I know you
know how the unions feel about that. Listen to this.

Speaker 4 (01:27:17):
If you're sending your kid to public school and we're
following the academic standards adopted by the school board and
the curriculum for our class, there's got to be some
level of trust or perhaps, you know, maybe you should
have chosen to send them to a different school. We
cannot have parental rights to the point where you're micromanaging

(01:27:38):
everything in the classroom and taking away education from all
the other students.

Speaker 1 (01:27:42):
Let's see, So what do you mean by to another school?

Speaker 2 (01:27:46):
Do you mean?

Speaker 1 (01:27:47):
I don't know what would be an alternative?

Speaker 3 (01:27:50):
Ross?

Speaker 1 (01:27:50):
What are alternatives that you understand exist out there? If
you're you have a chied in a public school. And
have you taught about other educational home that homeschool home
school be one. I don't, but she said send them
to another school. So I'm going to say homeschool is
not what she met right, because you wouldn't send your kid.

Speaker 2 (01:28:07):
To homeschool or vocational school.

Speaker 1 (01:28:10):
You think it's a trade school of some sort. But
now we're not talking about kids, they're necessarily at that level.
We're talking about middle schoolers, I think was the crux
of this. So what are you so if you can't
send your kid right to the coal mine already because
they're not old.

Speaker 2 (01:28:27):
Enough military school mill, well you can.

Speaker 1 (01:28:29):
They have others one right north of the triad. That's
a pretty big one. That's it, though. That's all the
theories that she could have been referencing when she said
send them to another school, because some people, I'm not
a school expert, but some people think that what she
said there was if you want parental involvement, where there's
a lot of it, send your kid to a private school,

(01:28:51):
which seems like a really weird thing to say. If
you're the president of the teachers' union and you are
fundamentally pushing back on opportunities for people to do such
a thing. And it is also a pretty crazy statement.
Even if you're not head of the teacher's union. Your
your response is, well, we can't have parents meddling. You

(01:29:12):
go to a private school if you want to do that,
which I'm sorry, do you want parent involvement. I don't
get me wrong, I'm sure there's pain in the ass
parents out there. In fact, I know that there are.
I know nothing's ever good enough and it never will be.
But also you don't have to go to their house
with six cops and arrest them if they did to
the family in the UK for having an opinion whether

(01:29:36):
kid loses their mind because she's autistic and nine and
doesn't know what's going on. But stop trying to sell
me on private schools, you lunatic. Go to another one. Well,
not everyone can afford it, and the ones who can't,
you're gonna make sure they can't. So get on out
of here with that, all right? Eight forty four raced

(01:29:57):
Agic from the Weather Channel. Ray, I don't know how
I'm feeling about this Final four arena. This is just greed, man,
this is just greed. I don't know how you feel
about it so oh really, really really, I think the
NC douale A got him. All right, we'll give them

(01:30:18):
a chance real quick to call in on the phone
or maybe reconnect. That's fantastic.

Speaker 2 (01:30:22):
Hey, what's up?

Speaker 1 (01:30:23):
Oh there you are? Yeah, I forgot to shut that.
I forget it. What I'm sorry, man, that's just you're
just in hell, are you. I I'm not happy with
the Final four arena. I don't think it's fairy of
the basketball players. I know how you feel about this.
So you know that they're playing at the Alamodome Final
Four tomorrow, right, all right, So that's a football stadium.

(01:30:46):
So basically you have that setting and we're in the
middle of a football stadium that you have to have
a basketball court and there's huge open expanses so they
can seat like seventy thousand. Yeah, and it's like, that's
not not basketball. And for the Final Four and then
the Championship of Basketball, shouldn't you play in something that
feels like it's a basketball arena? Yeah? You know what

(01:31:10):
it's all about. King, No, I do I do revenue,
I just I don't. I don't think it's fair to
the players. So I don't know who did you have winning.
I have Florida in one racket and Duke in the other.
So okay, yeah, hey, you got a shot St. John's things.

(01:31:33):
What are you gonna do? All right? So uh all right,
let's just go ahead and get this over with because
I can barely hear you. What's going on with Sorry?
That's okay?

Speaker 8 (01:31:42):
How about that kind of is mid upper eighties today tomorrow,
maybe some record set are tied. And then as we
get at the tail end of the weekend, some showers
come in Sunday Sunday night, maybe a few thunderstorms. To
mid upper eighties on Sunday. Much cooler next week, as
we could see some lows by Wednesday morning in a
little bit thirty, so we may get some patche Frostback

(01:32:03):
didn't want to mention it to Casey before we go.
Colorado State came out with their first prediction for hurricane
season going slightly above average. About fourteen's a typical number
of name storms, sort of the Atlantic hurricane season. They're
going seventeen name storms.

Speaker 1 (01:32:19):
I've this is always confound in me because like I've
been to Fort Collins, there's no ocean there, all right,
and yet that's the arbor of hurricane information. Yeah, well,
you know school in Fort Collins, Colorado.

Speaker 2 (01:32:34):
We all get the same data though, right.

Speaker 1 (01:32:37):
Fort Collins, Yes, I know, but okay, come on wall
check it out. Geez all right man, having my weekend,
appreciate it. There you go. Jeff Bellinger Bloomberg News and
or excuse me, Jeff Bellinger with Bloomberg News coming up.
There's raced agic and we will be right back. Talk
to Jeff Belle. Jeff, have you figured out which building
you're gonna loot first when society breaks down over the

(01:32:58):
tariffs or whatever and being told is going to happen.
I haven't given that a lot of thought yet, Casey,
but you probably you don't want to get their last all.
It's true and stuff's been looted. So you get a plan, Jeff,
get a plan, and okay, listen to the report this morning.

Speaker 6 (01:33:15):
Okay, and this report is sponsored by Total Wine anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:33:19):
There's a good idea, right there, Jeff. That's that's true,
your Total Wine. You are. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:33:27):
On a typical jobs report Friday, case this would be huge.
Job growth was much stronger than expected last month. The
Labor Department says two hundred and twenty eight thousand workers
were added to payrolls in March. The nation's unemployment rate
ticked up to four point two percent. Today, though will
not be typical, the futures indicate terrif worries will weigh

(01:33:48):
heavily on Wall Street for a second session in a row.
China made it a true trade war today when it
announced retaliatory tariffs on all imports from America. Stock market
futures are all down between two and third and two
and a half percent, and that actually is a small
improvement from about an hour ago. Investor's very anxious to

(01:34:08):
hear what FED chair Jerome Powell will have to say
about tariffs, the economy, and interest rates. He'll be speaking
in Alexandria, Virginia later this morning. Just about everyone with
a retirement savings plan is poorer on paper. After yesterday's
meltdown on Wall Street. The total fortunes of the five
hundred richest people in the world shrank by two hundred

(01:34:29):
eight billion dollars. It was the fourth largest single day
decline ever for Bloomberg's Billionaires Index. Nissan responded to the
new tariffs on imported vehicles. The company says it will
end US sales of two Infinity brand SUVs that are
built in Mexico. The cell phone market very mature now
and very competitive. Verizon is looking to lure new customers

(01:34:51):
and hang on to existing ones with new perks. It's
offering a free phone trade in and a three year
price Lock and Hershey struck a deal to buy Connecticut
based Lesser Evil. This is a company that makes organic popcorn.
Her She has been expanding beyond candy, adding snack foods
to its portfolio.

Speaker 1 (01:35:11):
In Casey.

Speaker 2 (01:35:11):
Terms of this deal were not disclosed.

Speaker 1 (01:35:14):
Okay, alrighty, Well, have yourself a good weekend, Jeff, and
tell you your sales rep is probably freaking out. I
didn't mean it, so I understand that it would be
a bad idea. All right, thank you, appreciate it. Treat care.
So I just said it again. He said it, lute.
The sponsor did not say that. I'm not saying that.

(01:35:36):
I just indicated that it would be the first time
a business that sold liquor was looted as part of
some sort of pandemonium going on there. He did it again.
You ever, Ferguson when they looted the store literally called
liquor and meat. Yeah, and the problem was, so you
get you get anything you want in there, and one

(01:35:56):
that's amazing. All stories should be. There should be a
whole chain of just stores called liquor and meat. You
every guy shops there now. But what the problem was
is everything's zero dollars at that point because you've chosen
to loot it. And instead of running out with a
good eighteen year and some t bones, some of the
first people I saw running out of there had like

(01:36:19):
uh uh puckers and the tube beat you know, like
the big tube of questionable hamburger you can get in
the poor people aisle. They're running out with that thing,
and I'm like, what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (01:36:33):
These people would have failed miserably during a supermarket sweep
back in the day. Yes, oh yeah, we should you.

Speaker 1 (01:36:38):
Just go to the roast pile and throw everything in. Yep,
problem solved. No, they're like, oh, let me get the
mystery hamburger meat and some of this puckers, which is
six dollars a fifth or whatever. And I know they
had other meat because I saw people who got it right.
And some people are like, why are you are you
helping looters? I'm not, I'm just I want look whatever

(01:36:59):
you're going to do do your best. That's all I'm
gonna say. We're gonna do it. If you're gonna do something,
do it right. Because it reflects on your character. No, yes,
the looting reflects on your character too, But to be
bad at something that you shouldn't be doing anyway, it's
just embarrassing.

Speaker 2 (01:37:18):
I mean, you don't need to lose. I did what
I did. I dumped all my money into e coin.

Speaker 1 (01:37:22):
Oh good. Yeah, how's that working out for you?

Speaker 2 (01:37:26):
I haven't checked, but I'm sure it's fine.

Speaker 1 (01:37:27):
Maybe that's what's wrong with Justin Bieber. She's the Justin
Bieber videos.

Speaker 2 (01:37:30):
Dude, I'm I'm uh, it's yeah, he's going down like
the Brittany Road.

Speaker 1 (01:37:35):
Well, Brittany was dancing in a red thong yesterday. She
didn't look like we's done all the drugs.

Speaker 2 (01:37:39):
Give him time, Oh my head, he'll get that
