Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It is six o six here on the cac O
Day Radio program as we get things rolling. And boy
that took that took less than a day. Two days.
How long have we known that Stephen Colbert is him
and his son are doing this Lord of the Rings
Rings thing. I think yesterday was first I heard about it.

(00:21):
Let's just say two days I saw it no less
than three articles, you know, woksh articles like you know
from like Comic Book Review, you know, sites that purport
to be these fan sites, yet for whatever reason, they're
gawk or esque.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Eight reasons.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
It's tough to watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy today.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Ruh uh.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
And and so they kind of rope a dope you
because you know, at first they're like, ah, the CGI
doesn't hold up like with Gollum. All right, I guess,
I mean clearly it doesn't look as good as what
we can do now. But you got to remember those
movies came out right after the Millennia or the you know,

(01:08):
Y two K man, what was it two thousand and one? Right,
so it is what it is. But then of course
it gets into all the woke stuff, right, like there's
the they wanted them to here we go Middle Earth,
female characters are severely underserved, and basically they're mad that

(01:29):
that really the main vocal characters are are men. But
also it's a book. It's like the characters are established.
What did you want Peter Jackson to do? And I
don't have to I don't have to look far, because
they say, instead of you know, J. A. R. Tolkien

(01:51):
filled his works with male and female characters, although men
are often given the lion's share of the spotlight. However,
this should not have stopped in this case Jackson the
director him from granting his female characters more agency, defying Tolkiens.
So they're arguing that Tolkien, who was kind of trying

(02:12):
to hold the source material granted he couldn't get it
all in there, should have just went off on his
own and either expanded the role of an established female
character into something that is not portrayed in any of
the works, or just made one up. Get a maker
and marry Sue. Yeah, have her go into Moredoor and

(02:33):
run the place just with here sheer awesomeness and yeah no,
and then we you know the Orcs stuff. Why are
the elves? The elves are the white people and the
orcs are the black people. And then also like why
why are the elves so insular? Why is there not
a diversity.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Among the elves.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
I'll tell you whether there's not diversity among the elves
if I could just nerd out for a moment, is
because elves are not people, all right. They have a
wildly different lifespan. It's actually you know, with actually kind
of a plot point for a little bit in uh
in one of the one of the movies there, having

(03:12):
to do with Steven Tyler's daughter live. But yeah, yeah,
they are very insular, and they're insular for a number
of reasons. But also the part where if you're staying
Elfish and you're hiding in the woods, how how do
you get this this giant bit of diversity? But it
doesn't matter, right, they wanted to look.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Like the the the.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
People we thought were going to be the seven Dwarves
in the new Snow White movie. Anyway, I'm not gonna
read all of these to you, but like, there is it.
There is an excitement among those who want to woke
ify basically all of our entertainment that this is going
to be their opportunity and it's kind of gross. So
I am convinced more than I was even when I

(03:58):
first heard about the fact that Colbert and I guess
his son or co writing this, that they're gonna do something.
They're gonna do something. But look, we'll get into more
of this with our official nerd correspondent, Stephen Kent, because
I I can't nerd at his level, so and he
has some thoughts, I guess on this, So we'll chat

(04:19):
with him coming up at eight oh five. We get
actually a lot of stuff that's kind of up in
his will house. This social media addiction trial verdict, this
could be. I mean, clearly, the social media companies have
basically unlimited money, so they're not gonna just take this decision.
They're gonna like they're already figured out how to lawyer

(04:40):
this thing.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
Because if this stands.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
And others and others which are coming down the pipeline
also go in this direction. Holy crap man, death by
a thousand cuts, even for some of the biggest market
cap companies in the world. So, uh yeah, meta YouTube, right,
So basically Google Facebook, Yeah, that's and it's a California jury,

(05:07):
so I'm not actually surprised. Um, and Google's using AI
to modify headline.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Yeah, we got a bunch of those kinds of stories. Uh,
let's see here.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah, okay, all right, my doctor where Docman was asked
action action acting a little weird, but there we go.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
Where did I put this? All right?

Speaker 1 (05:32):
I've had several people send this to me. I gotta
admit I saw it on social media and I didn't
realize what it was, honestly, I honestly I thought it
was like fan fait. I didn't realize it was a
real thing. And so then I read it and I
see it in the story and everybody was everybody seemed

(05:53):
like everybody had a different opinion. And I'm like, okay,
all right, well we'll go ahead and we'll uh, we'll
bring this to the show. And it has to do
with a So the guy is, uh, he's and he's
in the social media space for his work, right, He's
a devout Christian. He he actually he works with with

(06:16):
churches to do there, you know, with setting up their
social media and really having a program. And so he
like he understands social media is my point. This is
this guy's profession. So he decided he was going to
write a giant post posted on social media talking about
what a whore his wife used to be and now

(06:38):
she's not a whore because she's she's turned her life around.
And I'm using that word because that is exactly how
he portrays it. And then there's a picture of them
on their wedding day, and and some people are like,
I why would you do this? Others are like, hey,
it shows the redemption. Uh, you know it's possible through

(06:58):
Christ and and but I don't like the way that
he went about it. And then others are just cool
with it. If you know nothing about this, I'll read
some of this to you. But I don't know, man,
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Look, it's not me.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
I'm not you know. So I guess I don't have
an emotional stake in this. But it's got twenty.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Five plus million.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
Views on Twitter. That number has probably since grown since
I threw it in the stack. But it just I
don't know. Well, I'll let you be the judge. And
also the Iranian the Iranian propaganda videos are pretty good,
not in a good way, but just in and entertaining

(07:46):
what the hell is going on kind of way, and
and just it's just another reminder of what AI can do.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
For you.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
And then you you you you passion project what you
want your AI to look like. It gives us a
little insight into your thought process. I'm gonna go on
a limit. The Iranians are weird af man. I I
prefer I prefer our military hype videos.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
But that's just me.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
Uh so uh not only as I ran, you know,
making anti American AI videos, which that's whatever. It's being
made by their own their own government.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
They're also being re posted by both Russian and Chinese
news outlets and governmental agencies in China. So I guess,
I guess that's the willingness. Uh, the level of the
willingness to help their allies is to repost their videos.
But they're they're just they're crazy town man like like

(08:47):
I ran. They're shooting, they've got a missile to blow
up the statue of Liberty. But the head of the
Statue of Liberty's bow. It's so weird, man, what the hell?
It's it's an acid trip, so it's very palmy. In

(09:09):
the background. There gout that go for it, but there's
like they just throw everything in there. She had a
statue of Liberty doing its thing with the with the
head replaced with the the demonic stuff. Then he got
the references to the Epstein scandal, which I think is
very rich, and they got, yeah, you just name it,

(09:34):
Vietnam War's in there. The sequence has the dispossession of
the Native Americans, Adam Baumb's in Japan, you name it,
it's it's probably in this thing. And and then they
had in the Epstein thing they have like a child,
and they referenced Pedal Island. At least they got this
spelling correct and all this stuff.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
So uh.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
And then they had to Ai generate the Ayatola alchemy
because he's Hamburger, so you know, you have the AI
do it. And he's kind of staring off into the sky.
But anyway, I've seen a couple of him now.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
And of course there's boojoo references in there that they're
making fun of the Star of David, which is what
they put on the the effigy of Ball over the
face of the Statue of Liberty before we blow it up,
before they blow it up.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
But yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
The larger message, though, is this Iranian officials are trying
to portray the US as responsible for decades of conflict.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
In the Middle East and beyond.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
And you know, the narrative is the US has murdered
the most people around the world, which is true except
for the British, the French, the Spanish, oh, the Spanish man,
let's see.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
The Mongols, the Italians, you know, I e. Rome.

Speaker 1 (10:58):
Basically, the US murdered the most except for almost every
other country, which is a whole hell of a lot older.
So I don't even know what they're talking about. Don't
even get me started on really the uh the Muslim Empire,
which I ran would have been a part of back
in the day. You just get a head start.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
Don't worry.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
We can murder people really well, we're really good at it.
Got all the toys. But like, like the math doesn't
even math. Your hell, your your two allies literally have
h for for modern era right where people are still
alive to remember some of this stuff. Your people have,

(11:39):
Your your two main allies are one and two. If
you just go like last hundred years one and two,
and that's murdering their own people. So I don't know,
that's that's extra screwed up right there. Yeah, just if
we're if we're if we're going with the numbers, we're
trying to make sure that you know we're accurate. Essentially,

(12:01):
the starving of Ukraine and what China did to its
people during the Cultural Revolution not even close. We simply
we simply just haven't had We don't. We didn't have
enough people through all of that to even compete. So
I don't know what the heck you're talking about, but
I will say this, if you're into taking hallucinogenic mushrooms
or something.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
You should watch these videos.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
After that would be the only use there other than me,
I guess talking about Oh, hold on, there's one other two.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Here we go.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
They also have Persian cats that do martial arts and
somehow represent Iran. And then then they have a human
head and an eagle, and that represents the US ross.
Who you take it in a fight, a Persian cat
who knows kung fu or a bald eagle with a
human head standard sized cat, bald eagle basically because Iran

(12:59):
thinks to the stupid cat's gonna win.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
I's not gonna win.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
You.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
Cat's not gonna win. I mean it probably put up
a fight. It's got some you know, he knows kung
fu or whatever.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Yeah, but we have a lot of weapons with laser pointers.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Yeah, and also just a bald eagle would decimated cat
if you just went straight you know, species to species,
and you're right, yeah right, we got all the we got.
We got a discombobulator. Does Iran have a I don't
think you do. I don't think you know what it is.
And we've shown you many of our weapons wide up close,
though not many are around to describe the experience. So

(13:35):
but yeah, per persian, can you get to you guys
need something more badass? A Persian cat from an animal thing?

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Is that all I ran is?

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Iran has bears, dude. A lot of people don't know this.
Iran has giant bears, lots of bears. It's a problem
in Iran with the bears. Why wouldn't you go with
the bear? Now we got bears too, Hell, we got
Kodiak Island. I don't know that you're gonna compete with that.
Maybe Russia Calonia bear, but I know you got bears.

(14:04):
So you lean into cats from a military standpoint, it
doesn't mass and you have to give martial arts skills.
Doesn't make any sense. Dear lord, what is this you
have sent me? Well, it's just texting me stuff here
during the show, and it's usually pretty good. So uh
uh oh, all right, I'll get into this here in

(14:27):
just a moment. I'm trying to figure out what's going
on there, all right, six twenty six here on the
CaCO Day radio program. Okay, so there is, uh, there
is a social media post. We're gonna dive into this
right after the break. There is a social media post
that was put forth by a guy by the name

(14:48):
of Trevor Sheets. He is he's a devout Christian. He
works in the Christian space. He works with churches doing
social media and setting up programs there. So he knew
what he was doing when he posted this, and it
has caused quite a stir among people because it's it's like,
sometimes you overshare, even if you think you're doing a

(15:12):
good thing. You went too far. And I don't know
what the fallout from this is gonna be. Okay, all right,
So a few days ago, I don't know, maybe a
week ago, I started seeing references to this, and I
gotta admit I just I didn't plug in because it
was really a newsy thing. Skipped over it on the

(15:33):
Twitter and I kept saying it pop up, so I
finally read this thing, and then I was reading reactions
to it. So again you you you have this guy.
His name's Trevor Sheets, big time Christian all of his life,
and he and his wife got married and he decided
he was gonna make a post about it.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
He does social media.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
He works in the Christian space in social media, so
he understands the power of social media. And you you know,
if you post something out there, you may get one
person who sees it, nobody sees it, or a billion
people see it. That's the power of the Internet. And
let's just say, it blew up with you know, tens
of millions of interactions. But the interactions ran the gamut.

(16:20):
I'm going to read this to you, and I'm not
going to read the whole thing, but like it's got
her picture in there too, at their wedding photo. Here's
what he writes. He writes, my wife was formally promiscuous.
I was a virgin. She was then radically born again,
committed to church, evangelized, constantly peered in books in the bedroom,

(16:42):
prayer journals, grief over past sexual sin et cetera. We
got to know each other well well for over a year,
dated for four months, engaged for two and a half,
did not They didn't They didn't even kiss until their
wedding day, so they didn't do anything else. Been married
five years now and she's the most wonderful and godly wife, mother,

(17:03):
do I three kids, and homemaker, you can imagine. And
and then he goes through and he starts talking about
biblical references to promiscuous women or women who sin. You know,
the story of Jesus having his foot washed by what
was likely a prostitute and then the Pharisees gotten mad
about it. Just just a variety of things. But and

(17:26):
and by the way, there's lots of good messages when
he starts getting into this right things to think about,
things that maybe if people are struggling, especially in an
era where we have porn addiction and and all of
these things, if you're struggling, there's a lot of good,
little little places for you to go do some further
research that he kind of puts in here that it
may or may help you, may or may not help

(17:46):
you spiritually. But he does a good job of lining
it out. But people really couldn't get past the first paragraph.
My wife used to be a hoe And then that
all right, Ross, I don't know you saw this thing
clearly because I put it in the stack, and maybe
you saw it earlier.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Are you on team what are you doing dude? Or
team this?

Speaker 1 (18:09):
I understand what you're trying to do, but maybe now
it's getting lost because the internet's just the internet or
great idea, I don't know, man.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
I feel like he had like a sort of like
late night Jerry Maguire sort of idea like this is
going to be, like, you know, really impactful and it's
deep and meaning, and it's sort of like got away
from him.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
Yeah, it blew up fast, and I have to wonder.
And again this is I'm not a woman, so I
can't see it through a woman's perspective. Did your wife
come in on it? Did you show it to her?

Speaker 2 (18:37):
No, she's unaware.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
Okay, all right, I'm curious a woman's perspective on this,
because here's the thing. I feel like, this is uh again,
I'm not going I don't know the relationship. I don't
know the behind the scenes.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
But like.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
I wonder, at first, she's just like okay, But as
the days go by and as the millions of views
rack up, and maybe she has a weird interaction with
somebody that they know in their life. I wonder if
it kind of fester's in there. I hope that's not
the case. You know, they got three kids. He you
know from his description they're very happy. But that's a

(19:15):
that's a that's a burden to carry because like clearly,
like people close in their social circle probably have some
idea that she was, you know, party girl or however
you want to portray it. But when you're throwing it
out to all these strangers, I think it would even
been fine if it was like testimony in church, right,
because you're still surrounded by your congregation and you're talking

(19:35):
about it and and but but there's a pre established relationship,
even if it's just proximity. So I don't know, I'm
just throwing it out because I saw it and everyone
was chewing on this, and it kind of I don't know,
it just came across as strange to me because of
the potential of the damage it could do on the
other side. You know, maybe there's potential for good. Don't know,

(20:00):
But if you want to weigh in eight eight eight
nine three four seven eight seven four. Look, you know,
and people have different levels of what they're willing to share. Now,
one of the hallmarks of this show is Ross and
I've talked about a lot of stuff, including stupid stuff
we used to do have done, and you know, that's

(20:21):
that's the nature of it. But not everybody, Not everybody
is as open about things, which is really crazy because
Ross and I are basically introverts outside of this. But
when you get to sit in a room all by
your loansome and talk to yourself, I guess maybe that
goes away. The other problem is is if you look
at the comments in the original post, some of it's
just gross man and there's you know, they're just mad

(20:43):
that they're Christian, so you're dealing, right.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
You have people that are like, hey, give me all
the details, like all the details.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Picture, it didn't happen. I did see that.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
Is that what you're refry for? You people in the
comments that are like, well, give me all the details
because I want you know, I'm going to enjoy that
because I'm sitting here pants right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, all.

Speaker 1 (21:09):
Right, I'm sorry. I'm so distracted.

Speaker 4 (21:11):
All right.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
So if you guys don't know, I just don't know.
There's I because I can't figure it out. There's a couple.
So there's two videos. Now Ross is literally researching this. Yeah,
the first video was deleted. Okay, so they did delete
that one, and then what is I can't watch this
one on the air. Okay, Well I see, okay, I

(21:32):
see the quote here, so that it sounds like that
what they thought it was is what they thought it was.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
The first video that was deleted was it shows the
floor and it looks like there's like a pallette of
water bottles and maybe some soda, and it's a woman's
feet and she quickly says, is it gonna it's gonna
launch soon, right, Yeah, And then that's the one they deleted. Yeah,
that's deleted.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
Well that's the only one that kind of makes sense,
So they deleted that, and then they'd post another video.
It's it's four seconds as well, and it's pitch black
except for a quick flash where if you if you
time it, just write and freeze frame it. You see
a very blurry image of the American flag and then

(22:14):
what is that a bell to a bell or something?
It's it's And they posted this to the White House
dot gov website. So now everyone's trying to crack the code.
What are they talking about? And there's theories from we
captured carg Island too, and that's the you know, it's
the raising of the flag to it's a launch for

(22:34):
a text text for info sign up thing you can
do where you can you can opt in for notifications
from the government, which if that's it, I don't know
why you put that video out thinking it was going
to promote it. And now it's weirder because you said
they deleted the one that actually where you could make
out what was going on for that one. So we

(22:55):
got to crack the code. We tasked even with it.
I have a theory rot I think because right when
do what day of the week do the most holidays
in the US.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
Fall on Friday or Monday? No?

Speaker 1 (23:12):
No, no, Monday, Yeah, Monday, because we have several fixed
Monday holidays. Then the rest em and flow, so Mondays
are the days they're gonna have the most holidays in
the US. Well American flag, you I think, I think
that that's Monday is a day off for US.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
I think is what I've thought about in the past
two seconds. And I concur Yeah, why the video patriotic duty?
The video is saying, do not go to work on Monday.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
That's NAT go dark on Monday, indubitably, indubitably.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
And then that bell is not a sound that we have,
you know, in that is a radio associated thing. That's
more of like maritime or right. So there's what they're
saying is don't come to work Monday. In fact, why
not go to the beach or something. I don't have
to go to the beach, but just.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Don't come to work. That's my theory. But we'll see
what it's so cryptic if it feels like an Avengers
sort of teaser trailer, like it's bizarre. So it does.
It doesn't have that sort of vibe like they're gonna say,
like Milania is gonna like return in Avengers Doomsday or something.
It has that sort of vibe doing that.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
Or remember when going over to DC, remember when Superman
appeared for like one eighth of a second after which
was it the Flash but one of the movies. Everyone
lost their they just lost their collective.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
Crap over it. You're right, it has that vibe right there.
I mean it's what like five or six seven seconds
or something, and it's it's mostly black. No, it's four
seconds there four seconds, Okay, there's static. Now people are
slowing down the static and looking for code in the static.
So if you slow it down, you can see numbers.
What are the numbers mean? And then there is a
millisecond really fast you can see the American flag and

(24:53):
then it just goes away and then there's a ding.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
When he says static. He it doesn't listing from the
audio but audio perspective. But also they do that, they
do the thing with the tracking line.

Speaker 2 (25:05):
Yeah, the old TV static. Yeah, like with the v
like vhs used to be.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
So I don't know what's going on other than us
being forced to take Monday off too, uh because I
don't want to run a foul of the White House here. Really,
they put this thing out, all right, So who is
the new superhero? Do you think if it is mcum?

Speaker 2 (25:25):
They had Milania come out yesterday with one of those robots. Yeah,
the humanoid robot walking down the red car. But I
saw that, and some people are speculating that was actually
the old Joe Biden without the Joe Biden mask and
skin on, because they had the same way too smooth.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
Yeah, and you notice it didn't like walk randomly over
into another room.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
It didn't fall off the stage.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Yeah, so I I I reject that theory because the
thing kept a straight line like that. You see the
robot that freaked out in the restaurant last week and.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
They had to like come get it. No, I missed that.

Speaker 1 (25:58):
Oh dude, I'll find that for you. We can reach
tweet that. Let me do this six forty five KCODA
radio program, hang ut Ross retweet the dancing robot. I
can't believe you hadn't seen this. So there's this is
in Cooper, Tino. This is where Apple is. There's Silicon
Valley out there, and it's at a hot pot hot
pot restaurant. I like hot pots though, down with that.

(26:18):
Ooh boom boway Now I want some boom boway today.
You don't know what that is. It's it's a Vietnamese
thing and it may or may not have blood in it.
But don't let that turn you off.

Speaker 2 (26:29):
It's amazing.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
So AnyWho, So the it's wearn't an apron. It's one
of those little humanoid robots, and then all of a
sudden it just decides it's not doing whatever it's supposed
to be doing. There I don't even know what its
gig is other than trying to look it's got an
aprin apron on Is it greeting people? Is it handing
out chopsticks? I don't know what's going on, but that's

(26:50):
clearly not what it's supposed to do. And so you
see the employees rushing in there to try to move it,
and there are four of them. They can't move it,
and it's dancing, like arm up in the air dancing.
So I guess that's better than it's murdering people. Let
the robot dance man.

Speaker 2 (27:08):
Dude.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
Some of the retweets this video are amazing. They're like
me after thirteen Chili Rita's and Applebee's or so whatever,
they're trying to throw me out. But yeah, Also, why
does it need an apron? Why does it?

Speaker 2 (27:24):
I think it's wearing like a workplace apron, so you
know that it's part of the restaurant.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
Well, no, look at it says on the apron. Look
at it says on the apron. What does it say
says I'm good? If you have to tell people you're good,
I don't.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Believe you're good, Sika. If it wasn't wearing the restaurant
apron with the I'm good. You might just think it
was another you know, like customer of the restaurant. And
this is like it's sort of like when you go
into Target and you know if they're wearing red and khakis, right,
you're at Target, same thing, You're like, oh, this robot
works with the restaurant. Do you remember it would be
easily it'd be easy to get confused.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
Do you remember the guy. There was a guy who
had like a YouTube channel where all he did was
go into stores yeast by wearing blue pole.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
Dude, I've made that mistake before. I've made your blue
polo into a into a best mind. No. No, I've
done the Target thing before where I've worn the red
shirt with Gene because now they I don't believe they
have to wear the kakis anymore. They can sort of
wear whatever they want, but the red shirt. And I've
done that before where people think I work at the Target,
I'm like, I don't work here. See that that's the
now you chose the less fun route. The more fun

(28:27):
route is to answer their question with no knowledge and
then send a pack at the other end of the store.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
Because they were they didn't even check.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
No, I didn't have time for that. I'm very busy. Well, no,
you don't do anything.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
You say, yeah, it's all the way over there on
the other side of the store. And then they leave
and now you're not busy anymore. It would almost take
you exact same time as telling them you don't work there.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
Yeah. But they finally be like this go away?

Speaker 1 (28:48):
Yeah did they did? They double down and be like,
you work here. You just don't want to talk to me.
You're a better lot to me. That's how I know
you work here.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Oh man, all right, so uh yeah you checked that.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
Dancing creepy robot out dancing for now. But I think
that's to draw people in with the fun before.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
It goes on. Did you ever hear the story about
there was like a medieval village like that, they just
danced until they died. Do you ever hear about that story?

Speaker 1 (29:16):
I watched a whole There's a YouTube channel called the
Wi Files, which is pretty interesting.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
The guy.

Speaker 1 (29:21):
It's good production value and the guy covers you know,
that kind of stuff. He did an episode on social
contagions and that was one of them. There's another one
where like a village in Africa, all the kids started
just barking us out every single kid.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
Yeah, this village, they just started dancing and they couldn't
stop it, and people just danced until they dropped dead,
and like hundreds of people died. Yeah. Yeah, and that
is that is a thing.

Speaker 1 (29:42):
I mean, that's to the best description that we have.

Speaker 2 (29:44):
That is the thing. That is the thing.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
The theories as to why they do run the gamut,
right from trying to understand it from a psychological perspective
to uh, what was the one you said aliens?

Speaker 2 (29:56):
You will not believe where Giorgio Suklos comes down on this.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Yeah, why why would the ancient aliens make a dance?
I don't know, for their amusement? I don't know, kind
of like what the influencers are doing to those poor
Cuban kids this week. Let me grab a call Donna.
Thanks for hanging on. What's going on?

Speaker 5 (30:14):
Good morning?

Speaker 4 (30:14):
You see how you doing good?

Speaker 6 (30:18):
So I'm going back to your I think first story.

Speaker 5 (30:21):
Lord of the Lord of the Rings. So if they
did it with a lot of women.

Speaker 6 (30:26):
Characters, doesn't that take away from oh Win, excuse me, yeah,
who defeats the witch kin?

Speaker 1 (30:38):
Because no, man, Yeah, they do concede that the highest
the most high I cameber how they word it, but
basically that she's really the only female who has a
big storyline, which is not true, by the way, there
is lots of story. But also it's the source material.

(30:59):
It's a book. You can't just shoehorn in. You can't
make up a character. You can't do that.

Speaker 5 (31:04):
Yeah, you're not kidding, boy, And they are nerds too,
so I'm digging that. I also kind of wanted to
mention the dancing robot, which I'm looking at right now. Yeah,
it's a good thing.

Speaker 6 (31:20):
There weren't knives on the table, those top sticks will flying.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, no, one hundred percent percent.

Speaker 4 (31:29):
Yeah, I think you could be a.

Speaker 6 (31:31):
Murder robot instead of a dancing robot shirt.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
I think that's how they draw the men. All right, Donna,
I appreciate you calling. Thank you have yourself a good
one there. Yeah, who knows what what evil may lie
in the hearts of that robot? All right, we'll get
uh all right, so hang on, uh Jake, we'll get
to your call coming up here, just because only about
forty five seconds down, I don't want to I'll just

(31:55):
give you a very short amount of time. Also, we
got some audio for you because, uh, Jimmy, you know,
I'm beginning to think that in Hollywood they might be elitist,
just a theory I'm working on. We'll play some Jimmy
Kimmel audio. And of course the Ross. Could you imagine

(32:16):
living in Canada and that being your leader having a
like don't get me wrong, I clearly when there's a
you know, somebody of the opposite political party in the
US and power a lot of rolling of the eyes,
maybe you're angry about what they're doing. This guy is
the Carni, this Mark Carney guy up in Canada. He's
just embarrassing. It is supposed to be a dancing robot,

(32:37):
so it is a robot. Just give you a visual
that looks like Julie Andrews cutting through the Alps right
in the sound of music, spinning around like that. And uh,
but it's like turns well, that's what it looks like, right.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Yeah. My initial thought it was like doing like the
Michael Jackson spin. But I think like you're I think
you're more accurate.

Speaker 1 (32:55):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and and but the problem is there's
an audience there. It's right up against where the audience
is there's kids there, and so it just basically does
its spin move, uh and then backhand some kid.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
Why would yeah with force too? I mean that smoked. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:14):
Why would you let your kids stand that close to
a humanoid robot? That's that's the that's the weird thing
for me, Like because the thing's spinning around, I don't know,
and then the handlers have to come over and grab it.
So uh but now Ross has two pieces of evidence
that they're trying to dance us to death.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
So or whatever his theory is.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
All right, let me go ahead and grab some phone
calls and then we'll get into that audio. I promised you.
All right, Uh, let's talk to Jake. We're talking about
getting confused from employees and stores. Jake, what's up.

Speaker 2 (33:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (33:49):
I was at a home depot one time and I
was explaining something to a friend and like three people
came up, like like asking me questions and where stuff's
at in the store, and I'm like, I'm not wearing
an apron. But this was also the time when like
at home depot, you couldn't find an employee to save
your life.

Speaker 1 (34:06):
We are you wearing a bright orange shirt?

Speaker 4 (34:09):
Sir?

Speaker 8 (34:10):
No? I was wearing a Metallica shirt.

Speaker 7 (34:12):
Okay, yeah, but I mean they just said, hey, you know,
you sound like you know what you're talking about. I
assume you'd probably come here often, so they totally, like
like three customers came up to me asking me advice
and questions about that, and me being who I am,
I helped.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
Them, well do you do you possess the knowledge or
did you just help them.

Speaker 2 (34:36):
To do well?

Speaker 7 (34:36):
I possessed the knowledge and one of the things they
were talking about, but I told him where the other
thing was located.

Speaker 2 (34:41):
I don't. I didn't never.

Speaker 8 (34:42):
I never knew the store aisles, but I told him, like,
you know, it's in that section right over there. And
I even saw him and check out with what they
were after, So you bet I don't.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
I don't. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
I've been in Harris Teeter where somebody thought that I
worked there, which I have no idea, and I think
it's maybe because I was putting something back.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
On the shelf.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
I don't know. But she was like the poor lady
was like she was thanks for the call. She was
very old, and really I think she just wanted me
to get stuff. But so of course, I you know,
but then she had some questions about the whole thing
was really weird, and I did not know what the
answer to her question was. I just thought she was
going to hit me up to get something off a
taller shelf, because you know, it was like quite a

(35:23):
bit taller than her.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
But that's it.

Speaker 1 (35:25):
That's the closest I've ever come. And uh so, uh,
I don't know, Anthony, what's up? Hello, Anthony?

Speaker 2 (35:35):
Hey? Oh hey.

Speaker 8 (35:37):
I used to work at Loew's and my best friend
was my department manager, and he would when he.

Speaker 4 (35:42):
Had new people come in, he tell they weren't really
the sharpest tool unintended.

Speaker 8 (35:46):
He'd have them go.

Speaker 4 (35:47):
He'd call, he'd call on their their department call him
and had them looking for stupid stuff. One day he
had a guy looking for growing up and down aisle
of deployment looking for Philippian too.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
Hey man, that's the fun stuff, linker. It in the
radio world. Everybody's got their own thing.

Speaker 2 (36:02):
In the radio world.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
We have left handed microphones. You can ask an intern,
I'll find a left handed microphone.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
So that's fun.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
So ross would you say in my ear? Is this
about our caller?

Speaker 2 (36:13):
Yeah? No, Anthony and his wife just had a baby.

Speaker 1 (36:15):
Oh congratulations. All right, Wait is he the one? Are
you the one who posted a picture of your baby
under Ross's baby picture when he posted something the other day? Okay,
I saw a baby quite adorable, sir.

Speaker 4 (36:26):
Yes, yeah, I'm across his age that I wasn't planning
on being.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
How how's not sleeping working out for you?

Speaker 2 (36:34):
Is that good? How's that speaking sleeping?

Speaker 4 (36:38):
I've been married for oh, not sleeping?

Speaker 2 (36:40):
Yeah, that's yeah, I don't.

Speaker 1 (36:45):
Any way, Yeah, not speaking thing. That's that's I'm not
gonna explore that, but I appreciate the call and congratulations Anthony.

Speaker 4 (36:52):
Okay, all right, thank you?

Speaker 2 (36:54):
All right, you know you know.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
That, you know Ross, we have to have the baby's
fight in the in the octagon, right.

Speaker 2 (36:59):
As long as the robots aren't there. Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no,
you know, for baby superiority. It's crazy how many people
over the age of forty five who are going to
be new dads right after Lofton was born have reached
out to me asking for help, like.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
Dude, you just hold it together. What do you gotta
do right now?

Speaker 2 (37:19):
Yeah? Yeah, you don't even want to know what it is.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
So yeah, no, we got we gotta do a baby. Look,
has anybody ever thought of a baby Kuma te? No,
it's all they always go with the adult things. I like,
why is there no junior division?

Speaker 2 (37:36):
See? I have that problem whenever I'm at the Kuma Tase.
People assume that I work at the Kumata because they're
just assumed that I work there.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
They're like, oh, right, well, it's because you spend most
of your time smashing bricks inside of other bricks. Right,
So people are like, I think he might he might
know something. They just don't know that. That's just your
hobby man. All right, let's go and get to the
audio shell. We Jimmy Kimmel. If you ever needed a
further piece of evidence about just the alitism in Hollywood

(38:04):
and from that political side of the aisle, allowed Jimmy Kimmel,
who's talking about the installation of the new DHS Secretary,
Mark Wayne Mullen, which, by the way, just with that name.
If you want to crack jokes, whatever, it's it's probably
easy fodder. And you have to remember this about Mullen, Right,
this is a guy who dropped out of college because

(38:27):
there was some fan he had it, you know, basically
sport family and started a plumbing business. Was very successful
at it was an MMA fighter for a minute, but
was very successful and built this this small plumbing operation
which started with just him and like a couple other
people to a plumbing I was say empire, but they

(38:48):
have over one hundred and fifty employees now I think
it's the number that I saw. So while he is
a plumber by trade, he also is a very successful businessman.
And there are you know, I won't say anyone could
be a plumber, but there are plumbers who are just
plumbers and they just you know, one man operation. And

(39:10):
then there is the extra added where he has created
this very large business. And you know, it's you have
to have other skill set than just being a really
good plumber. You have to have some sort of business
minded approach, and and he does and that that business
experience probably probably it probably aids him very well, especially

(39:30):
as he moves into this new role. But that's Jimmy
Kimmel's not having any of that. No, no, no, So
this is the route he chose to go.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
M Juliani might not be with us much longer, but
go Warring Trubb's got a.

Speaker 1 (39:45):
Whole new generation of thinkers lined up, including his newly
confirmed Secretary of Homeland Security, Mark Wayne, Chuck, Mike Bruce,
Dave Mellett Mullen. All right, and I'm gonna pause here too,
because he's like his so his his his bid is
this is the best that Trump can do. Look at
these idiots. And then he goes on to Mark Way
Mullen and his background. And what's Jimmy Kimmel's background. Juggies, right,

(40:12):
but it's juggies and women jump out on trampolines and
women jump yeah, hence the juggies, right, Yeah, Like that's
that's so it's not like it's not like you. You
didn't start out even humbler, arguably in your line of work,
in your line of work. And I think he worked,

(40:33):
you know, before he got famous too. He was, you know,
doing a very regular blue collar job. I can't remember
what it was. I remember him mentioning it one time.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
But has I know Adam Carolla did. Adam Carolla is
a big blue collar guy.

Speaker 1 (40:45):
I don't know if Adam Carolla did construction. Yeah, right, yeah,
I think Kimmel did do so I'd have to look
it up. But my point is it's not like Kimmel
came out of Harvard and then they put him on
the Tonight Show.

Speaker 2 (40:55):
You know what I'm saying, Like.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
He he he did a lot of stuff. Dude, he
did blackface.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
Yeah he's not Conan, right, Yeah, which did come out
of Harvard and do the Simpsons and then the show.

Speaker 1 (41:09):
Yeah yeah, Conan does have a but but again, it's
it's this thing where.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
If you don't put Ivy League.

Speaker 1 (41:16):
On it, or thirty years as somebody in the governmental role,
that you think that people are not in a position
to what represent the people. It's literally the point it's
that it is. It's the peoples that are represented by
the people, right, And it's from a senator standpoint, we

(41:36):
even made it more the people. Forget all the shenanigans
with political parties I was talking about conceptually, because remember
we used to appoint senators and then we're like, no,
people should have to vote for him. So and that's
the way we do. That's why we do what we do.
So here's here's the road Kimmel's going down. Let's continue now,
maybe Melon's better. He is the now former Senator of Oklahoma.

Speaker 7 (41:57):
Before he was elected to the Senate, Mar Kwayne Mullen
was a low level MMA fighter and a plumber.

Speaker 2 (42:04):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (42:04):
We have a plumber protecting us from terrorism.

Speaker 2 (42:08):
Now I work for Super Mario. Why not Mark Wayne Les?
But honestly, I.

Speaker 1 (42:13):
Mean, fum keep cooking these unqualified people to run the department.

Speaker 2 (42:19):
Why not have more fun with it?

Speaker 1 (42:21):
I mean, next time instead of Mark Wayne, how about.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
Little Wayne for Homeland Security? At least we could get
a concert out of it. Right. Mullin is replacing Christy
Nome who was ousted three weeks ago and will never
be seen again.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
All right, So as you can imagine that rubs some
people the wrong way, right, because they're like, because again,
he's not just a plumber. But even if he was
just a plumber, if you watch the guy, you watch
anything where he's in committees and he's questioning, and like,
he's very good at the politicking thing. And also he
has the business experience to grow and you know, expand

(42:59):
to this. This this this large scale version of what
a plumber is. But also I would argue this, who
is a more what is a more appropriate past occupation
in the cesspool that is that is Washington.

Speaker 2 (43:13):
Then a plumber getting rid of the crap.

Speaker 1 (43:17):
Yeah, it's a sewer. Why wouldn't you want a plumber
in there? And and here's the other thing too, because
you know, today we see our elected officials, as you know,
mostly lawyers, right, it's the number one occupation. But if
you go back to the founding fathers, there was some
lawyers in there, right. John Adams was a lawyer. Madison

(43:38):
was a lawyer. But and I know Jefferson was, but
I don't think he worked as a lawyer. Initially, he
was just at his plantation. But George Washington was a surveyor.

Speaker 2 (43:50):
That's what he did.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
And then clearly he you know, he had his his
crop operation there, but he was a surveyor. That was
his gig before he went military. And then you know
the is history. But yeah, you had you know, Benjamin Franklin,
Yeah you you Who am I thinking of? Who was
the silversmith by his name escaping me?

Speaker 2 (44:11):
Yeah? Essentially? Yeah, all right, Paul Revere, Paul Revere.

Speaker 1 (44:15):
Yeah, these are their gigs. So would Jimmy Kimmel sit
there and go, oh, he's just a surveyor. Oh he saw,
he's just he's a silversmith.

Speaker 2 (44:23):
It's so he's so out of touch an elitist, But
there's so many people that work. Listen, my landscapers are
former military. Okay, hvac guy is former military. My contractor
was former military. That's like a thing that happens. It's
very common. Yeah, And for you to be putting down
these industries, like these important industries that make things work
and fix things and build things. He I mean, it's

(44:45):
just it's in line with how disgusted and grotesque and
out of touch Jimmy Kimmel is, which is why his
ratings are in the toilet it's that high, like the
pun there. And speaking of his toilet, I hope the
next time they're overflowing, nobody will touch it, right, just
just po flying out of every one of his probably
twelve bathrooms or whatever he's got in that mansion he
lives in. And he can't get a single plumber to

(45:06):
show up. That would be justice.

Speaker 1 (45:08):
But anyway, Yeah, it's again it's the elitism. But also
screw you, screw you man, what are you talking about?
You remember and it was crazy too. You remember the
vichy all they had for the other plumber who was
a part of politics about a decade ago.

Speaker 2 (45:26):
Joe the Plumber comes out and he's like, hey, what
you're doing kind of sounds like socialism, and Barack Obama's
like what no.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
Never, yeah, and then they went after that dude. He's dead.
He died of what a few years ago?

Speaker 2 (45:37):
Right?

Speaker 1 (45:37):
I think he died a few years ago.

Speaker 2 (45:39):
Well what are you?

Speaker 1 (45:39):
What are you talking about? The guy's a plumber, but
more accurately, he's a very successful business owner, which again
requires management skills. Usually, I don't know, some people grow
in spite of themselves, but I mean, this is this
is what you gotta do. John Hancock was a merchant shipper. Essentially,

(46:00):
he's a longshortman. These are the guys that got it done.
So I'm sorry. Yeah, everyone's making the same sewer joke.

Speaker 2 (46:11):
Yeah it's yeah, it's.

Speaker 1 (46:12):
A low hanging fruit, but it's pretty accurate. Hard to
argue with. I don't get one other, one other piece
of audio because it's just so embarrasing. I cannot imagine
living up in Canada, so like i'd have to build
a raft to try to float to Cuba or something.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
I don't know the hell out of there. So yeah,
I got enough time to do this.

Speaker 1 (46:33):
So the crash that happened involved in Air Canada commuter
jet up at LaGuardia and the CEO of Air Canada
had a little press conference and just expressed, you know,
how how sorry this that this happened. We're working with
officials at LaGuardia to figure out how we can be
you know, pretty standard stuff. But my condolences was the

(46:55):
point of it. The problem was the Prime Minister of
Canada's very upset because of how the CEO, who I
want to point out does not speak French and this
is important, chose to do the press conference. This is
what's two pilots, two Canadian citizens are dead, others are injured,

(47:16):
and this is the problem. According to the Prime Minister.

Speaker 3 (47:19):
We live, as I just said, in a bilingual country.
We probably live in a bilingual country, and companies like
Eric Canada particularly have a responsibility to always communicate in
both official languages regardless of the situation. I'm very disappointed,
as others are, rightly so, in this unilingual message of

(47:45):
the CEO of Eric Canada. It doesn't matter the circumstances,
but particularly in these circumstances, a lack of judgment and
lack of compassion. Lack of compassion and as you know
the the Committee Official Languages has has summoned the CEO
to hear before it. I will follow his comments closely,

(48:07):
and comments which I would expect and do course from
the Board of Directors.

Speaker 1 (48:12):
So they're gonna make they're gonna make this CEO show
up in front of this this board of handslapping if
you don't do things exactly what we want and uh
and and struggle session him. The whole dude, the whole
thing is just so weird. But this is this is
what's concerning him. This is your problem that the guy
didn't do it in French. I understand the guy's last

(48:34):
name is Rousseau, but it's my understanding he doesn't speak French.
And by the way, because I have spent a little
time up in Quebec there where they actually, you know,
there's a lot more French, I don't know that I
interact with anybody who doesn't speak English as well as
the Quebec Qua or whatever they call the friendship there.
So any who, that's what he's worried about. We'll be

(48:56):
right back again. I am so happy, although I never
did this, but I'm just so happy ross that our
high school years were not everyone had a camera, right,
I can't even imagine.

Speaker 2 (49:08):
Uh, you know.

Speaker 1 (49:09):
Then I keep saying this the amount of crap that's
going to catch up with people. And the example that
I give is we're gonna get to a point where
there's nudes floating around for a good chunk of members
of Congress, right, the number won't exactly be zero, And
I don't know, that's just a certain awkwardness. So Joe Burrow,

(49:30):
who is the Cincinnati quarterback, he's he's dating this model.
Her name is Olivia Hunting. Okay, any who are a
very beautiful woman. There, little problem, little problem. Uh there's
a video that emerged from her younger years.

Speaker 2 (49:47):
Uh, well, come on, they can't be that bad. Well,
it's not if it's not she's not nude, so it's
not that Well that's good.

Speaker 1 (49:55):
Yeah, she's just really really drunk, waving a gun around,
screaming the N word. Oh no, yeah, Now, to be fair,
she's it's part of a song. So she's screaming the
N word is part of a song. But she's But
also when you're you know, waving a gun around and
you look like you inebriated, So it's the totality of

(50:16):
it so that's.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
How long ago? Was it like, you know, she's like
young fourteen, fifteen or something and her betteran being stupid
or was it like more recent than around public or something.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
She's clearly an adult to this. See, Okay, we hold on.
So she's twenty three.

Speaker 2 (50:33):
Now and it was four years ago. Where's the video?
Four years ago?

Speaker 1 (50:42):
So she asked she would have leave issues. She's nineteen
in the video.

Speaker 2 (50:44):
I guess still probably not. Now. You know who's in
the video with her?

Speaker 1 (50:51):
Is that Takashi or Takeshi's six', nine that the snitch? Rapper?
Dude it was the only THING i know about him
with all the weird colored, hair BECAUSE i think because
she was she kind of came to prominence on social,
media so she was hanging.

Speaker 2 (51:05):
Out so she's doing.

Speaker 1 (51:06):
This in the presence of a, rapper but she is
a super blonde white, girl SO i DON'T i don't, know,
man it's.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
Gonna be On Polly, Market, like do you Think Joe
burrow is going to dump? Her i'm sure probably.

Speaker 1 (51:20):
IS i don't, know but, yeah, yeah, oh And i'm
not familiar with this, song but apparently has THE n
word in it a, lot and she's a big. Fan
so oh that's, fun all, right it'speking a fun this, story,
man it's it's it's it's one part really, irritating you,
know from a serious, perspective but ALSO i did. Laugh

(51:42):
so let me let me get. This so this is
in the state Of. Washington this Is, Olympia, washington where,
police uh as part they were looking into retail theft
AND i guess a license plate had been flagged on a. Vehicle,
right they're just running, in running out that kind of
stuff where they all run out with armsful of, clothes
and so there is a whole retail theft ring that

(52:04):
police are doing an. Investigation so they have these vehicles
are on the lookout for well one of. Them, pops
they see one and there's two people in, it and,
it when the police light them, up takes. Off so
a high speed chase ensues that eventually led Into. Olympia
the police did call the chase off because they do.

(52:24):
That they, oh you, run we'll just call the chase
off because it's. Dangerous, however shortly, after apparently the two,
dudes seeing that the cops were not in sight, anymore
pulled over ditch the truck on the side of the,
road took off on, foot and then their dumbasses got,
Caught so all, right so that's.

Speaker 2 (52:42):
Irritating, also.

Speaker 1 (52:46):
It's the guy's ninety eighth, arrest the driver of the.
Vehicle and, now don't, worry his buddy has four felonies
and Twenty the other guy in there has four felonies
and twenty seven misdemeanors that he has been convicted. Of,
then but the driver has a lot. More and again
he's got ninety eight arrests on his. Record ninety eight.

(53:08):
Arrests these are serial offenders that the state Of washington
just doesn't. Punish and once, again now the problem, is
and this is the REASON i think they ditched the.
Vehicles what was in the? Vehicle so police get, them
they get the, vehicle and here is the line WHERE
i laughed out. Loud as part of this, story the

(53:30):
search of the vehicle turned up some of the merchandise
that have been reported, stolen in addition to, methamphetamines, heroin,
fentanyl and a custom bong device that had been constructed
and built into the dash of the truck so he
could smoke drugs while. Driving who's the custom shop doing?

Speaker 2 (53:53):
That, right it's like some sort of weird exhibit thing
back in the Neighbor. Pittmer, hey, DUDE i heard you let, weed, Right? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
YEAH i heard. You like now it's a, bong you
drive a bone. Around but we've all had those, friends
right that could turn like anything into a. Pipe oh yeah.
YEAH i was living In omaha in two thousand and
two and my best friend growing up From schenectady came to.

(54:14):
Visit his name Is. PHIL i still lives there about
like a block away from my, mom and we have
gone down different paths, politically uh and every and every.
Way and but he was there and it went AND
i did you? Know did the show came? Back and
he was, like, hey, MAN i couldn't find a. Bong
And i'm, like, yeah BECAUSE i don't, smoke. Dude and he's, like,
OH i don't. WORRY i made. Some i'm, like what
do you mean you made? Some and there was an

(54:34):
apple that was made into a. Pipe i've seen the apple,
trick the toilet. Paper he dismantled my. WALKMAN i had a,
walkman it was you, know it was two thousand and. Two.
Whatever he dismantled my. Walkman it turned it into a
pipe he was smoking out of My, WALKMAN i don't know,
PIPE i. Guess i'm, like how can you be at this?
Level but when it comes you, know when it covered

(54:57):
with guy ver, unemployed you turned Into tony's when it
comes into making stuff out of, it, like how does this?
Happen you need to focus that energy in different. AREAS
i have.

Speaker 1 (55:07):
Hunted i've been hunting for the last like two segments
BEFORE i did this thing because i wanted to see
a picture of, this Because i'm just so impressed and also, horrified, right,
like does it look like excuse, me does it look
like one of those interlock devices where you gotta breathe
into your car will. START i think that Was ross's.
THEORY i don't, know BUT i cannot find a picture of,
It AND i wonder if maybe the police intentionally didn't

(55:29):
want the picture out there so people weren't LIKE i
could make that for the very same reasons you just talked,
about how they can they all turned Into Tony starker.
Mcgiver if there's weed at the end of the project
and a custom bond device built into the dash of the,
Truck i'm very, curious like was it just like screwed

(55:51):
to the dash or in some, way shape or. Form
do they incorporate the anatomy of the car into this?

Speaker 2 (55:59):
Thing and and also.

Speaker 1 (56:01):
If you get pulled, over aren't police going to ask
what the hell that thing? Is that's WHY i wanted
to see. It maybe it doesn't look like a, bong.

Speaker 2 (56:10):
But is a?

Speaker 1 (56:11):
Bong so alrighty eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four Uh and and again the ninety eight,
arrests that's The that's the other thing. Here we keep
seeing these these crazy, stories and you know the guy
is committing with these drug charges is probably well Is
washington Or?

Speaker 2 (56:29):
Organ?

Speaker 1 (56:29):
No organ was the one where all the drugs were,
legal and now they're trying to make them not SO
i don't know what the laws are In washington for.

Speaker 2 (56:36):
This so we will.

Speaker 1 (56:39):

when multitasking is all. GOOD a lot of temperatures now
over the next couple of days that'll be above. Average
And ben chatting all week about this front coming, in
how it's gonna cool, down and it is some chili
mornings coming up over the weekend and then we quickly warm.
Back but it's typical what we do this time of.
Year not much rain around. EITHER i did See Mitchell

(58:08):
county to our, west right on the. Border DID i
have an active wildfire? Burning hopefully they can get that
that contained not going to be much help from Mother,
nature although there may be some so at sunshine and upper,
seventies maybe eighty today in some. Spots there are some
clouds this, morning but they should continue to go away tomorrow,
sunny mid to upper, eighties close to ninety in the,
triangle so there may be some spots that are going

(58:31):
to get close to record.

Speaker 2 (58:32):
Warmth either.

Speaker 1 (58:34):
Way with the front coming through tomorrow, night just a few.

Speaker 9 (58:36):
Showers and thundershowers are, possible not widespread, rainfall or it
won't last. LONG i, mean there's a decent, chance but
we don't see a lot of rain coming down unless
you get a. Thunderstorm and then By saturday And sunday we're,
cooler upper fifties On, saturday lo mid. Sixties sunday overnight
loads of being the, thirties so some chili mornings coming.
UP i think the chilliest is going to Be sunday,
morning when we're in the low to mid, thirties and

(58:58):
THEN i think we'll. Recover i'll probably be the low
forties On monday, morning so a little chillier, briefly but
as soon As tuesday we're right back up near Eightieth,
greece so kind of crazy.

Speaker 1 (59:09):
Crazy crazy is fines that time of it is all right,
man thank you appreciate. It Uh, ross ready your Newt gingridge,
audio you know the, one you know the, one BECAUSE
nasa yesterday had a big old. Announcement we'll get into
it coming up. Next hang On ross is a big.
THING i think he wants to get out of this
as a moon. Base in, fact didn't you Ask Dan

(59:31):
forrest for moon based stuff or was It Mark walker
or somebody You've you've hassled several POLITICIANS i have about
getting moon based, forward playing off the old Nut gingridge audio,
here that we.

Speaker 2 (59:42):
Will have the first permanent base on The moon and
it will Be. American Ah, no he said that in
the debate back in the day For. PRESIDENT i wasn't
paying attention To New. Gingrid but when he said those,
Words i'm, like, Well i'm on The gingridge, train.

Speaker 1 (59:58):
Give me a moon. Base, well YESTERDAY nasa AND Nasa
Director Jared isaacman they had like a they unveiled a
bunch of, stuff a bunch of stuff having to do
with both The moon And mars exploration and kind of
the stuff that they're working. On so let me get
let me give you the, rundown because there's a bunch

(01:00:19):
of stuff. HERE nasa unveiled its plan new plans On,
wednesday including the immediate establishment basically within within the term Of.
Trump they want us to get back to The moon
so that we can start building a permanent moon.

Speaker 2 (01:00:34):
Base so that was that was number.

Speaker 1 (01:00:37):
One they also unveiled what are called moonfall lunar drones
that actually hop across The moon's, surface and which SOUNDS
i know that sounds a little, weird but check. It
check this out. Ross how far do you think it
travels in one?

Speaker 2 (01:00:55):
Hop one? Hop? Right because you're get.

Speaker 1 (01:00:59):
This you, know it looks like a little springy drone
but without the helicopter stuff on, it so it just,
hops use its legs to, hop and it does have
some aeronautics to. Steer how far do you think it
can hop in The moon's atmosphere with one?

Speaker 2 (01:01:13):
Hop if you have twenty? Yards, no it's more than
one hundred. Yards, No and it's actually the answer will
be in. Kilometers so eighteen. Clicks, okay we can go with,
clicks but, no that's not. Enough a thousand clicks but,
no that's what you're off the. Moon, no there's no.
Moon you're in.

Speaker 1 (01:01:32):
Space you just propelled you floating away Like George.

Speaker 2 (01:01:37):
Clooney you're.

Speaker 1 (01:01:37):
Dead fifty kilometers fifty kilometers in one. HOP i don't
know the tech. Man and, again these are these are
things that they're. Building, uh some they you, know they
the the tech is there for some of. It it's,
not especially when you get over into the The martian.
Stuff so you've got the space hot or the hopping

(01:01:58):
drone for the moon can go fifty kilometers in one
hop up to of course you have the establishment of
a permanent. Base which, yeah The White house tweeted out
what did they tweet?

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
Out hang, on hang, on hang?

Speaker 1 (01:02:12):
On they Said america will never give up The moon.
Again did we give up the?

Speaker 2 (01:02:16):
Moon? YEAH i Mean china went up, there, Right india went.

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
Up, there but they didn't people up. There AND i
Thought india's thing broke at some. POINT i don't know
if they were one hundred right. NOW i know they
got the, photos BUT i don't know that they were
able to land the.

Speaker 2 (01:02:29):
Thing, YEAH i think like people have sent things up,
there but actually people haven't stepped on the, moon, right just, Us,
yeah we're the only. Ones BUT i, said it's the
biggest mistake we ever, made was planting that, flag but
not actually like claiming the. Moon we should have claimed the.
Moon we should have a resort up there And Lake
armstrong by now.

Speaker 1 (01:02:44):
Nah because then we were. Stoopid and because of the
un they're, like nobody can claim the. Moon you Think,
china if they could get up there and put a,
base would let you anywhere near the. Moon look what
they're doing in The South. China see they are killing
reefs so they can claim the entirety of.

Speaker 2 (01:02:59):
It there'd be nothing but panda expresses up. There.

Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
Now, well you gotta have sun to eat when you
get up. There right over on The mars side of,
things they have unveiled plans for a new spacecraft CALLED
sr One. Freedom this would be propelled by because we
don't have the lithium crystals yet or maybe we, DO
i don't. Know this will be nuke, Powered so there's, that.

Speaker 4 (01:03:26):
You.

Speaker 1 (01:03:26):
Know that's and of course that people to lose their
minds over. There what happens if it? Explodes can you do? That,
well we power subs that, way so. AnyWho but they're
still building that and then the thing that's the weirdest
to me Is, well then when they get On, mars.

Speaker 2 (01:03:44):
They unveil what.

Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
Are called skyfall. Copters these are new helicopters that you
can use to zip Around, mars WHICH i don't understand
how that would work because if, So mars has very little,
atmosphere and in, fact if you saw the Movie, martian
the thing that scientists quibbled the most with was the
opening scenes or sequence where that giant windstorm comes and

(01:04:10):
Then Mark wattey gets left behind in all the confusion BECAUSE.

Speaker 2 (01:04:12):
I think he's.

Speaker 1 (01:04:13):
Dead the fact is that there's so little atmosphere On,
mars AND i can't remember the exact, statistic but they
basically said if they had one hundred and fifty mile
an hour, wins it would feel like a light.

Speaker 2 (01:04:23):
Breeze. Yeah the author tried to make everything as scientifically
accurate as, possible but when it came to, that they
had to have a plot point to Get Mark wattey
stuck up. There, yeah but THEY i mean he could
have gotten another. ROUND i just forgot, Him, like oh Where's?
Mark we have a botany? Issue oh, no he's still In.

Speaker 1 (01:04:39):
Mars, no, no, no make it so him And jessica got
a chestain got in a, fight and then she's like
she just pieced, out.

Speaker 2 (01:04:46):
Eh scratched my album or something ye.

Speaker 1 (01:04:50):
Him, yeah so she got emotional and. Overreacted you could
have gone that, route but my point, Is my point
IS i don't know how helicopters work On mars with
that atmosphere like, that but. Whatever i'm also, not you,
know a rocket, scientist So i'll take a wait and see.
Approach but, YEAH i don't think they had a.

Speaker 2 (01:05:12):
Name what do you what do we call the moon?

Speaker 1 (01:05:13):
Base because they have names for the, equipment BUT i
don't see a name for the Moon which are we?
Good what should we call? It we need something bad
at making a little clicker there?

Speaker 2 (01:05:25):
There, now how are you doing, today?

Speaker 4 (01:05:29):
Sir good, Morning, case good to hear.

Speaker 1 (01:05:32):
You I'M i am sorry to Hear ross told me
you were not able to make it down to that
weird polymarket fake bar thing they set. Up but it
sounds like you made the right choice because it was
a bit of a.

Speaker 10 (01:05:43):
Disaster so, yeah it was something of like the Fire
festival of pop up bar. Openings so you, know when
you when you hear enough bad news coming across The
internet about how lame it's going to.

Speaker 4 (01:05:55):
Be you don't drive the hour INTO dc.

Speaker 1 (01:05:58):
Well unless you think it's going to be so accepted
lame as to be a spectator, sport right. CRAZY i
didn't rise to that, occasion all, Right so we got
we got so much to get, into and is as
predictable as the sun rising in the. EAST i knew
immediately WHEN i saw the story about How Stephen colbert
and his son have, somehow some way been grabbed By

(01:06:23):
Warner brothers to write A lord of The ring. SCRIPT
i started to see the the woke, authors, right the
entertainment reporters already trying to set this thing.

Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
Up here's one eight reasons it's.

Speaker 1 (01:06:38):
Tough to watch The lord of The rings trilogy, today
And i'll save you all. EIGHT a couple of them are,
technical like THE cgi doesn't hold. Up but good lord,
man it was what two thousand and, one it's it's
been a. While but, then of course they get into
all the woke. Stuff why are there why is there
not a strong female? LEAD i don't, know maybe because

(01:06:59):
it's not in the, book of course the. Standard why
are all the elves? WHITE i don't, know because you
don't else don't really interact with people for a number
of reasons if you've read these. Books and also they're
not they're not interbreeding with other things because they live like,
forever not, forever but a hell of a lot. Longer
SO i don't even know if it's. Possible so we're

(01:07:21):
already starting this, conversation and that to me INDICATES i Think,
COLBERT i don't trust him not to slip in like
A trump, reference like some authoritarian king is not maybe
a main, character AND i do not have high hopes
for this. Project do you want to talk me off
the ledge or where are?

Speaker 3 (01:07:38):
You?

Speaker 4 (01:07:40):
Yeah, so, LOOK i understand That Stephen colbert has trashed
his reputation with Mainstream america by becoming a deep state
and regime propagandist DURING covid and The biden. Years he's
not known for being funny anymore but being a political.
Hack totally get. It but there are different sides of.

(01:08:03):
People AND i will, say as a person who enjoys
listening to people talk, theology, religion, faith and Also lord
of The, rings nothing he's ever said About tolkien And
lord of The Rings i've ever found to be off
putting or a red. FLAG i think he is a
guy who gets it more than most people In. Hollywood,

(01:08:25):
now does that mean that you automatically get to write
a script for a film treatment for a major? STUDIO
i don't. Know you know who gets to. Decide he's
close to people In. Hollywood that's what you get when
you network and know. People i'm not willing to jump
off the cliff here in. DESPAIR i Think tolkien or Not, Tolkien,

(01:08:45):
colbert he knows his, stuff and this is an interesting
story you could, Tell.

Speaker 1 (01:08:49):
Oh, no, NO i don't disagree with you that he knows his.
STUFF i was not as educated on how much how
passionate he is about it until the news broke AND
i started looking at into it and the. Guy, look
the guy is clearly a giant word of The rings
fan that is.

Speaker 4 (01:09:05):
Decade of, demonstrated decades of demonstrated.

Speaker 1 (01:09:09):
Deep but he's in the middle of the most angry
fellow farewell to or to the point where even the
more leftist trade magazines were pointing out that it's kind
of gross what he's doing right. Now SO i think
this guy is so inflicted WITH tds he won't be
able to help himself because it's part of his what
consumes his. Brain.

Speaker 4 (01:09:28):
Man, yeah you know he even in the rollout video
With Peter, jackson you, know he can't kind of help,
himself but making a joke at the end of, like,
well you, know my schedule has opened up and it
seems Like i'm going to be free a lot after this,
year So I've i've rolled into this new. Opportunity but
you know he does at the end of that announcement,

(01:09:50):
video you, know he calls what has happened in his
career a u, catastrophe and you catastrophe is a term THAT.
Jr tolkien came up with to underpin all of The
lord of The, rings which is a reflection Of christ's.
Death when really horrible things, happen beautiful things can be

(01:10:10):
born of. Them and you, know when somebody says that
word and references, it you just kind of get the
sense that they do know the deeper layers Of. Tolkien
and SO i try to give him some grace and
put politics. ASIDE i Think, colbert he might there might
be a shot that he does good work.

Speaker 1 (01:10:29):
Here, okay all, right we'll wait and, see And i'm
sure through the process there's gonna be statements and questions
and who the heck knows it will come, up and
then of course the movie. Eventually all, right let me
pivot over to. This, look there's a lot of unique
elements to this jury decision In. California yesterday a lawsuit

(01:10:51):
by A california WOMAN i believe she's a twenty year
old suing So facebook and, YouTube So alphabet they the
two have been found that they're liable for three million
dollars in. Damages and it's based on the concept that the,
video the social media and the video streaming companies designed

(01:11:12):
their platforms to hook young users and to essentially addict
you to their. PRODUCT i have a hard time with
some of this stuff Because i'm, like, bro there's an off.
Button BUT i also understand, that, yes their product is you.
Want Pete ross AND i had a big discussion about
this on the air out that long, Ago like in
any big IF i owned a, BAKERY i want to

(01:11:33):
sell you as many donuts as, possible and, yeah and
you know What i'm, Saying so, like that's that's WHAT i.
Want BECAUSE i don't sell, DONUTS i go out of.
BUSINESS i understand the models different with YouTube or any
of the. Rest but if your service is based on ad,
service you want people to stick around as long as.
Possible these, companies, though have an ungodly amount of money to.

(01:11:54):
Fight it's A california. Jury i'm sure it's being appealed
already because if this is allowed to, stick it's going
to be a bloodbath for some of these social media.

Speaker 4 (01:12:02):
COMPANIES, yep and a couple of activists very close to this,
case who are involved in a kgm's case in THE
La court have said that there is now blood in the.
Water and if you just listen to what they say
that they want to go after social media companies in
the way that people went after tobacco and, opioids and

(01:12:26):
so they are treating them very much the. Same AND
i do find it to be rather. ALARMING i, mean
there's so much arbitraryness to this entire case and even the.
SETTLEMENT i mean the fact that they did a three
million dollar payout and punitive damages and they split it
seventy thirty seventy percent will be shouldered shouldered By meta

(01:12:49):
and thirty percent shouldered By google And. YouTube it just
kind of makes you like, Wonder, Like, okay so you're
saying you had body dysmorphia and confidence and anxiety issues
when you're, thirteen and seventy percent of that can be
ascribed To facebook and thirty percent to. YouTube i, mean
who's making this stuff? Up AND i still take great

(01:13:12):
umbrage at the idea that teens mental issues and anxiety
problems can just be laid at the feet of social
media companies and not just at the problems associated very
naturally with growing. UP i, mean, YES i think social
media can inflame a lot of these things for, people

(01:13:33):
but that is why we have. Parents and of course
the parents in this case of pleading that they had
no power over this entire. Situation And i'm, sorry but
it's just not. True it's just not true that parents
have no.

Speaker 1 (01:13:45):
Power and the body just working things interesting because we.
Did we had, BETTER i guess more, societally with society
would consider pretty or. Beautiful we had those our entire,
life even pre social. Media, Right so go back to
WHEN i was growing.

Speaker 2 (01:14:03):
Up you had you, know if.

Speaker 1 (01:14:04):
Some if some girl was going to worry herself into
a physical, reaction you could do that based on what
you were seeing on television and in. Movies swim swimsuit, issue,
yeah or The sears catalog, like, so.

Speaker 4 (01:14:19):
Well this is this is exactly. IT i, mean the
case that they are making has no limiting. Principle you can,
basically now under this, ruling you can say that the
casting decision to bring On Megan fox in your Latest
netflix series made somebody feel badly about, themselves that they

(01:14:40):
watched the show and then they looked in the mirror
and didn't like what they see because it's Not Megan,
Fox and then you can. SUE i, mean that really
is a part of the connection being made. Here that's
content on these platforms that make people feel badly about
their bodies and. Themselves And i'm, sorry but that is

(01:15:00):
such a stretch that only would pass In Los. Angeles
AND i do think that the media social media companies
should should appeal.

Speaker 1 (01:15:09):
This, well, no, no, no they're going to go down this.
ROAD i, mean clearly they're going to, appeal, right there's
just too much at stake. Here but but what's good
for the goose is good for the. Ganders so if
that's going to be some sort of established president In,
California Sue, paramount you know What i'm, Saying, Sue sue
you Know Sue Sports illustrated for that swimsuit issue that

(01:15:29):
made you feel bad when you were. TWELVE i, mean
it's out there and that's that's the same. Premise so,
well we'll see where it. Goes speaking Of, google sorry
guys bouncing around here this. Morning speaking A. GOOGLE i saw.

Speaker 2 (01:15:42):
This this is kind of.

Speaker 1 (01:15:46):
Nuanced how to explain.

Speaker 2 (01:15:47):
It here's the.

Speaker 1 (01:15:48):
Headline google USING ai to modify search. Headlines it's not going.
Well and so they give some examples of like here's
an article that had this headline and then when the
A i got ahold of, it it chopped it to
the point where you couldn't. Tell some of them are
just being you, know there's coming up with their own
based on what they find in the. Story headlines are

(01:16:08):
a really important part of WHAT i do here for two. Reasons,
one many a time you see the headline FROM, cnn
and it's the headline that goes, viral like it did
with the two guys In New york who tried to
throw the or explode those bombs right where they gave
them that almost you, Know Ferris bueller kind of, treatment
and it was less about. That and, ALSO i can't

(01:16:30):
tell you the number of Times ross you'll attest to,
this where an article has a headline and then by
the time it goes to get put in the stack
When ross puts it, together somebody has changed the headline
because there's been blowback or. Something and then the other
side of it is the amount of people WHO i
feel get the entire entirety of their news by only

(01:16:51):
reading headlines is probably not an insignificant, number.

Speaker 2 (01:16:55):
Right they don't read the body of the.

Speaker 1 (01:16:56):
Article they maybe read the headline and the sub headline
and they think they know what's. Up and that's why
the amount of times arrive on this show called out
headlines that don't reflect what is actually being reported but are.
SENSATIONALIZED i don't Trust google to try to do it
straight down the middle of the. Road clearly The gemini
is not getting it. Right but, also headline manipulation is

(01:17:18):
something where you can misinform people or put a political
spin on, things and it's something we run into all the.

Speaker 2 (01:17:25):
Time.

Speaker 4 (01:17:27):
Yeah, yeah it is a second or third layer of
manipulation and misframing a. Story i'm a content. WRITER i
write articles and do news, analysis and when an article
is submitted and then goes up. Online people will always
say this as they, SAY i didn't write the. Headline
sorry you found it in syndi. Area it's, like but it's,

(01:17:48):
TRUE i didn't write the. Headline you have an, editor
a social media guru on the team who knows how
to make a headline for your boring story that people
must actually click, on and sometimes it misframes the story
just a little. Bit and the trick with any editors
that they have to get that balance just, right a
little bit clickworthy but not. Misleading and then you Have

(01:18:12):
google adding another layer of misunderstanding to the consumer experience
going to a. STORY i really don't trust their. Judgment and,
also again we should be thinking about the consumer experience
online AND i don't think That google is in the
position to make the best consumer experience on a news.

Speaker 2 (01:18:32):
Site no.

Speaker 4 (01:18:33):
Way and they who gave them the.

Speaker 1 (01:18:34):
Right well that is the other thing, Too, like If
i'm the media company and you're misrepresenting what it is
there and there is, fallout can you Sue google for?
That probably, not there's probably something in their terms of
service where you.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
Can't but.

Speaker 1 (01:18:50):
Either, way it's. Disconcerting, hey just a real quick couple
things oh you see they Canceled Starfleet. Academy how tore?
Up are you pretty tore up, There?

Speaker 2 (01:18:59):
Stephen not as torn up As.

Speaker 4 (01:19:02):
ROSS i, mean it's a real. Tragedy what will the culture?

The martian a, little but that'll be our transport To.

Old tyson coming BACK i paid off a, little BUT.

Speaker 1 (01:23:07):
I think he's bigger Than logan. Too he's quite a bit,
Taller so who. Knows, SORRY i just saw, that BUT
i would ruin everybody else's day with. It speaking of ruined,
DAYS i don't know what's going. On It's, chicago, so of,
course following a nearly two month investigation into the defacement

(01:23:27):
of the it's A REPUBLICAN hq building In Arlington, Heights.
Illinois a two month, investigation police have made two. Arrests
i'll tell you about them in a, moment but here's
what They here's what they're accused of. Doing according to
surveillance footage going back To january twenty, fifth at around ELEVEN,

(01:23:49):
pm video surveillance shows two people defacing the front windows
of the building with a permanent marker and then they
found Some nazi symbols and curse words.

Speaker 2 (01:24:03):
In the window and it was, done and then.

Speaker 1 (01:24:08):
Feces they threw feces on there in urine two on the,
window on the, door the, handles the sidewalk out. Front all,
right SO i guess they didn't technically break, anything they
sure vandalized it and it's just. Weird but what's crazier
is the two that they arrested are seventy two year
Old brock McNerney and sixty nine year Old moistsett, McNerney,

(01:24:31):
who by the, Way, ross you saw the mug shots
right when you edited the. Story i've never seen a
woman with a fu man chee beard thing going. On
what is going on with that woman's? Face SO i don't,
KNOW i don't know what's going on she. HAS i
don't know how to describe the facial. Hair it's just
weird because it's not a full. Beard it's like spikes

(01:24:54):
of hair coming out and the beard. THING i can
only again fu, manchue but on the not a the,
lip but on the on the. Chin it's really. Weird
but these are these are. Retirees these are these are
people should be giving were their originals to their. Grandkids, okay,
live you, know living the retired, life you, know doing

(01:25:15):
what going going to the old man coffee club at
the Hart ease. Whatever and, instead in the middle of
the night they're sneaking around with buckets of feces and
urine so they can go Write nazi symbols to vandalize
in animate objects because they're they're THEIR tds is off the.
Charts by the, way it's only misdemeanor offenses they're charged.

(01:25:36):
With even though according to the h this Particular republican
club here it's called The republicans Of Wheeling. Township it
was not an insignificant cost to fix this because they
had used permanent, markers some other stuff they had written
on and and then of course you know it's it costs.
Money you can't just hose the feces. Off because of,

(01:25:58):
that they had to have, somebody because It's, illinois come
out professionally clean, it WHICH i guess was a significant cost.

Speaker 2 (01:26:02):
Too so but.

Speaker 1 (01:26:04):
Then again To, Chicago so what do you. Expect so
that's vandalism story number. One this is the one holy
cow man you might have to get this chicken metal,
from you, Know Guinness book Of World. Records An australian
woman who according to, police had had consumed that, day
the day this, happened Three leaders of. Vodka is how

(01:26:27):
is that? Possible i'm just. Curious how how do you
drink Three leaders of vodka and then be able to
go out and function enough to do what police said she.
Did oh and she's also on, molly so she's consumed
Three leaders of vodka and she's ON, mdma the party, drug,

(01:26:50):
which by the, way like, yeah you know one of
the things there is dehydrates. You and then you throw
Three leaders of. VODKA i HOW i couldn't handle Three
leaders of. Vodka and you KNOW i could pour into
a bottle of burb especially on vacation or we're golfing all,
Day i'd still never approach.

Speaker 2 (01:27:09):
That but here's what she.

Speaker 1 (01:27:12):
Did so she's jumped up on The, mollie she drinks
Three leaders of, vodka and then she has a brilliant.
Idea so there is a there's a an art piece
called The Blue, blob which essentially it's just it's a
statue with no distinctive. Features it's all. Smooth but, yeah
it looks like a big blob and you know it's
a piece of. Artwork it's right in the middle of this.

(01:27:34):
Town so she drinks Three leaders of, vodka does The,
mollie and then goes and procures giant googly eyes and
some super, glue and then pursues proceeds to glue the
eyes onto this piece of. Artwork but because she did
with the super glue to remove, them damage the art.

Speaker 2 (01:27:51):
Piece, man damage the art. Piece. MAN i was on
her side UNTIL i heard that. Part what do you,
Mean i'm a fan when people stick to googly eyes,
something so it makes me. Laugh there. Was so you're
driving down Wake forest and you drive past the golf
course there in ninety eight going towards the seminary like Wait.
Field No, Wakefield, no the other one no Wake. Forest, yeah,
no the public, One so drive past there and then

(01:28:13):
there's a stretch there that right before you get to the,
seminary and there's these, like you, know these big line of.
Trees and for a while there was somebody that kept
putting up googly eyes and all the trees and it
made me laugh every. Time then there was another. One
you you you'd go downtown and there was like a
big old tree near like a dental, office and somebody
put big old googly eyes on. That we called it
the Tree. Man but if you're destroying the, yard then,
YEAH i can see where there's that's going to be a.

Speaker 1 (01:28:34):
Problem and, honestly if she'd have just done it with
probably the because it's an outside, sculpture so like if
she'd just done it with the regular adhesive on, those.

Speaker 2 (01:28:43):
Right, YEAH i just peel right. Off. Yeah but when
you when.

Speaker 1 (01:28:46):
You brought the thing a super glue out and now you,
yeah that's that's gonna be a.

Speaker 2 (01:28:49):
PROBLEM i just.

Speaker 1 (01:28:50):
CAN'T i just can't even go over to the three
leaders of Vodka. Ross do you think you could have
consumed three leaders of? Vodka?

Speaker 2 (01:28:56):
NO i was a big beer.

Speaker 1 (01:28:57):
Guy, Yeah that's WHY i didn't really ask you because
a beer, guy but by just the ability to function
after three.

Speaker 2 (01:29:04):
Leaders that's why here Like indian And jones as a, Woman.

Speaker 1 (01:29:08):
Well She's australian, too so they HAVE i don't, know
if you, know it's a little bit of a drinking
culture down, there or at least and it's godly expensive.
Too they you ever seen An australians would come to
THE us and go to a liquor store and look
like they just got hit by a.

Speaker 2 (01:29:22):
Truck they're so.

Speaker 1 (01:29:22):
AMAZED i saw a break down there because like this
SHE'S i think she was visiting THE, us This australian,
chick and she went to go buy a bottle of,
vodka a absolute or, something you, know which is what
like sixteen eighteen bucks depending on where you go get.
It she, says it's seventy five dollars In. Australia that's

(01:29:43):
how much they tax liquor down.

Speaker 2 (01:29:44):
There Every, yeah, no everything fun down there is super.
Taxed even the video. Games like back in The i'm
tilling of like, ten, twelve fifteen years, ago the average
cost of a video, game just buy a new new,
game it's one hundred.

Speaker 3 (01:29:55):
Bucks.

Speaker 1 (01:29:56):
Yeah, well and now that's what everyone's arguing over whether
they should be a.

Speaker 2 (01:29:59):
Hundred, YEAH i don't even know what it's going to be,
now because you're going to take sixty. Dollars it was
like one hundred dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:30:04):
There and, LOOK i understand That australia finds itself In
you're in the southern, Hemisphere you're you, know you're quite a,
way although they're not that far away from a lot
of where things manufactured compared to even THE, us but
you just you don't have the level of trade down
there because most people don't Realize australia has far fewer
people than even the state Of california on the whole,
continent far fewer, people like millions and millions, FEWER i

(01:30:27):
want to, say they have like twenty five million In
california is like thirty five so quite a bit. Smaller
So i'm sure that that raises some, cost but, no
the sin taxes on everything are just out of. Hand
AND i guess AND i was reading something BECAUSE i
would have gone back To australia, too because the only
TIME i went there was one of this kid right,

(01:30:48):
well my grandfather was on that professor, exchange so it
would have been fun to go back as an, adult
BUT i saw that they've also attached so many taxes
to being able to travel, there like it's it's one
of the most expensive places to Travel New zealand And,
australia by the, WAY i saw a report That New
zealand has one week left of fuel and they're trying

(01:31:11):
to scramble and figure out what they're gonna. Do AND
i don't know if that's just because of what's going
on or if there was a problem. THERE i didn't
really dig into, it but that's mildly, disconcerting especially with
the amount of fuel that people need to commute around. There,
right they got all sorts of commuter flights because you've
got multiple islands are, hopping so that could be, problematic all,

(01:31:31):
right eight forty four rased agics. Here nothing problematic in the,
forecast not, really SO i guess that's. Good but don't.
Worry they'll think something up before spring is done to
prove all.

Speaker 2 (01:31:42):
One, yeah getting get to that time of.

Speaker 9 (01:31:45):
Year the biggest thing are the biggest headline to find
this morning is your twenty four hour temperature change fifteen
to twenty degrees. Milder you're probably saying, yourself, well this
feels a little bit different than. Yesterday it's right around
sixty degrees The triangle mid, fifties and The triad.

Speaker 2 (01:32:03):
And most of the state in the.

Speaker 9 (01:32:04):
Fifties and we'll go probably close to her above eighty
degrees in some spots today and tomorrow well into the,
eighties maybe closer to ninety in some areas, Too and
don't really.

Speaker 1 (01:32:13):
Have any concerns about precipitation today or.

Speaker 9 (01:32:15):
Tomorrow we're looking at, sunshine some clouds around both, days
and we will get a.

Speaker 2 (01:32:19):
Front to come.

Speaker 9 (01:32:20):
Through we've got showers and thunderstorms to deal with tomorrow,
night and then behind the, front it'll be much cooler
For saturday And. Sunday mid upper fifties On, saturday but
mostly sunny in a north, breeze so that's likely light jacket.
Weather and then On sunday. Sunshine the morning hours will
be in the low to mid, thirties so it might
be a little frosty in. Spots later load of mid,
sixties but we're quickly back into the seventies and back

(01:32:42):
into the eighties as early As wednesday of next. Week,
Yeah april first lots of, sunshine so more, dry, plenty
more dry than when overall plenty more warm than we
will have cold as we get another little brief visit
of some chilly air after, that nice and mild once
again as we get into next.

Speaker 2 (01:33:00):
Week this is and by.

Speaker 1 (01:33:02):
The, Way april, first this is my least favorite time
of the year to be doing. Radio, really for like a.
WEEK i can't trust a damn THING i.

Speaker 9 (01:33:10):
Think, nope, nope not anything you see, here anything even
the weather.

Speaker 2 (01:33:14):
FORECAST i, mean you don't trust it. Anyway but, yeah
this is This Ai ray Or, RAY.

Speaker 1 (01:33:20):
I don't know your robot lurt all, right cry again,
tomorrow see, then and we'll come back With bloomberg news.

Speaker 11 (01:33:27):
Next, yeah if you're thinking of flying To asia cac
and then you're a buckle up because of the mid
east ward ticket prices on major routes Connecting asia And.
Europe they've searched up to five hundred and sixty percent
more this, month and they're likely to stay elevated into the.
Fall the, reason of, course is that fuel In asia
there's a particular shortage right, now and prices are, skyrocketing

(01:33:50):
and prices are expected to remain about thirty percent above
last year's levels even as far out as Into, october
so it's not clear what happens. That i'll, also have
you heard of a slip? Tank if you, haven't you
may be about. TO a growing number people are using these.
Containers they can kind of look like large coolers to
buy and store gas at home to store up when

(01:34:12):
they find a good deal on the. Guests previous to
this oil shock slip tanks were just kind of in
the domain of truck drivers who use diesel and those
in the construction industry or rural. AREAS a new Five
nights At epstein game has gone viral on college. Campuses
it's an online. Game it involves players pretending to be
sexual assault victims trapped on the late sex Offender Jeffrey epstein's.

(01:34:36):
Island there are multiple, versions popular ones created by groups
calling Themselves Evan productions And Game. Jolts its, origins, though
are actually. Unclear, parents, educators and some, students as you can,
imagine are.

Speaker 2 (01:34:47):
Troubled by the.

Speaker 11 (01:34:48):
Game stock futures right, now their lower crude oil, futures
higher hopes for talks between THE us And iron fading for.
Now axios Says pentagon is developing military options for a
final blow in a round that could include ground forces
and a massive bombing, campaign and The International ORGANIZATION oecd
says inflation in THE us casey could search to four

(01:35:10):
point two percent this. Year AND i was kind of,
thinking why aren't there as many doubles or triples in
baseball AS i remember there used to, Be and you,
know as a fan of The, YANKEES i was, Like,
okay maybe it's just that we don't have players like that,
anymore like the ones you, know we had when The
yankees won the kind of three times in a. Row

(01:35:31):
BUT i did a little, research and maybe you can
tell me a little bit more about, this because these,
days teams are really positioning their outfielders deeper to prevent
those extra base, hits, Right and so there are only
like three doubles per game, now the least in, decades
AND mlb, executives according to The Walls Stet, journal are
thinking about ways to increase extra base, hits and they're

(01:35:54):
actually including thinking about requiring outfielders to play more.

Speaker 2 (01:35:59):
SHALLOW i was just wondering what you thought about all.

Speaker 1 (01:36:01):
THAT i Thought Aaron judge had exactly the same number of, singles, doubles.

Speaker 2 (01:36:06):
Triples and home runs last. Night so there's your.

Speaker 1 (01:36:08):
Parody, well which was hero by the, Way well.

Speaker 2 (01:36:14):
That's.

Speaker 1 (01:36:14):
Fair, yeah he had he hit for the anti. CYCLE
i can Make yankees jokes all day because it's Really,
yeah AND.

Speaker 11 (01:36:25):
I pitched you a really slow softball, there dangling it
in front of your eyes for you to whack that
ball and.
