Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, day two of my Greensboro expedition. So I'm uh,
I'm in the tin Can studio today, so please bear
with us, if you would be so kind. We will
get through it. We will get through it with tons
of good audio, whacked out people, just crazy stories all around.
(00:22):
And sorry, I'm waiting for this one thing to load there. Alrighty,
thank you, thank you? Oh do do do do do?
All right? Perfect, all right? So the we got we
got Easter Bunny important chocolate news ross. Do you remember
(00:45):
the most amazing uh, the thematic story that we've done
in a while, the Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
fire festival gathering over in the UK that we covered.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Yeah, I still remember the op Olomopa space.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
So it happened again, and it happened here. The Barbie
Fest in Fort Lauderdale, Florida being described as the sister
event to that. And the best part is, uh, it
was only five hundred dollars so you could attend the
Barbie Convention for two days at the Fort Lauderdale Convention
(01:24):
Center there and you know, I want you to picture
going into a big convention center, the Fort Lauderdale Convention
theer is pretty big. So if you've ever been in
a big one like Chicago, Land or I'm trying to
think of some of the big the Harrisburg has a
huge one. If you've been in a big one, you know,
like much bigger even than the ones that we have
in Raleigh and Greensboro, respectively. So you have that entire footprint,
(01:51):
wide open space, huge, cavernous if you're ever in there
when there's not stuff set up, just cavernous. They cover
ten percent of the footprint of one of those. For
five hundred dollars, you got a swag bag and the
only thing in the swag bag was Barbie hand sanitizer.
And but I will say this, the photos are ridiculous.
(02:14):
People are all upset. They did have a guest who
showed up to sign autographs, and I think this right here,
this is what would really do it for you. Ross.
How excited would you be to spend five hundred dollars
over at Barbie Fest so that you can have a
meet and greet with Angel Reese? You excited? You want
(02:36):
me to get you tickets for next year? Go hang
out with Angel Reese. Now she did show and Serena
Williams show which is actually crazy because like they took
in all that money, I'm assuming they did it. You know,
those ladies gobbled it up, you know, for appearance fees,
and then they just did they couldn't do any of
the Barbie stuff. And apparently the people that they had
the characters playing Barbie not good Barbies, not really not
(03:01):
up to the level of the production you saw, I
guess in the the movie. But yeah, I was just
kind of consuming this this morning and I'm like, yeah,
of course, of course we're gonna do this. So yeah, yeah,
that's where we start. Okay, all right, So now now
you're armed with that information. We got tsa stuff we
got if we have an update, I don't know why
we have an update, but we do have an update
(03:22):
on the CEO of Air Canada. Dude. That is Canada's broken. Man.
They are absolutely broken. Although they did get me. Oh
you know what, I forgot to I forgot to share
that video yesterday. Did you guys see uh, did you
guys see the guy who was the sign language interpreter
(03:43):
up in Canada for the Rush concert the band Rush. Dude,
it's all it's a whole thing. Hang on for this.
Let me Uh, I'm gonna cause I tweeted it out
the other day. Let me, I'm retweeting the Barbie and
sanity right now, all right, sing, go check that out, dude, Russ,
go go go look at the retweet I just did,
(04:04):
and look at the picture of that. It's tell me
how excited you'd be to show up to that for
five hundred bucks.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I had already retweeted. But yeah, now that's like depth.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
That's straight fire right there, man, Like like if you
got there and spent that money, you would hope for
a fire right to consume you for your bad decisions. Yeah,
there it is Barbie Dreamfest. Good lord, man, good lord.
All right. So the uh, I'm not even mad at
this sign language interpreter. So here's just got to understand
he's doing. He's interpreting, you know, the Rush songs. But
(04:38):
when they have drum solos or guitar solos, he does
air guitar air drums. It's the strangest thing to watch,
but also mildly entertaining. And then when the lyrics started,
you know, he moves on to the lyrics. But uh yeah,
it's uh, it's a good time. Where did I put
that all right, Well, I'll find it. We'll get the
(04:58):
whole rush guitars th and you guys can go ahead
and check that out. So that's just a little smattern
of na we're gonna be going this morning. We blew
a bunch of crap up yesterday, and specifically we blew
up basically sites wait munitions depots, but also sites that
can be utilized for the enrichment procurement, enrichment and uh,
(05:22):
you know, possible weaponization of uranium. And the way that
several members of the media like Mario Narafal or whatever
that guy's name is, he's constantly on Twitter. They I'm
on MSNBC all the time. The way that they positioned
it will blow you away, but probably will not surprise
you in the grand scheme of scummy things that the
(05:44):
media has done. So that is where we will begin
our quest on this lovely Tuesday morning, and we'll get
into it coming up here on the CaCO Day Radio program.
Can't decide if I want to hear I want to
start with the dumbest thing you'll hear today, or the
dumbest memories of Congress you'll hear today. They are not
(06:04):
one and the same though on many days they are
in fact one of the same. No, No, it has
to be the man on the Street interview. That's where
we begin the adventure today. And I'm just gonna I'm
just gonna warn you. I know it's early. You're gonna
think you're miss hearing this maybe or whatever. So this
dude's trolling, but he's also not trolling. As uh Ross
(06:27):
pointed out, it's you know, it's a joke. It's it's
and he didn't come up with it, but he did
go interview people asking this question. And I don't know
how many folks he had to talk to to get
the reactions that he was looking for. You never really
know with those, right you, because you click on the
thing and you see a lot of these their compilations
(06:49):
like five to six people or whatever. It's not the
first six people he talked to gave the dumb answers.
Maybe the spring break videos where they thought Ayahtola was
a band, but yeah, this one, this one, I'm going
to assume most people just flipped him off and walked
(07:09):
away or told him that he's an idiot or whatever.
But it but it doesn't negate the fact that some
people didn't, And here we go.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
A little bit homophobics that was so focused on the
straits of Hormus and not the gaze of m.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Yes, okay, just to reiterate, because he's got a little
accent going there, he says it might be home. Isn't
it homophobic that we're focusing on the straits multiple straits
of Hormuz and not the gaze of Hormus, which is nonsensical,
clearly right. But that being said, he got the hook in,
(07:51):
he got the hook in. Let's see where it goes.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
A little bit homophobics that was so focused on the
straits of Hormus and not the gaze of him.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
Yes, yeah, Why do you.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Think something to leave the gays of Hamo's behind?
Speaker 5 (08:05):
I think it's just history historically, Like you know, gays
have always been very discriminated against, which is wrong on
so many levels, even in war.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Yeah, even in war end. It just takes I think,
more what is it like?
Speaker 5 (08:22):
More reform in government obviously, and then also educating.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Society the gays of Hamos.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
We could turn it into fire Island. I yeah, I
love before we go hold fire Island on this. I
love the part where she part of her solution is
to call for more education of folks. I think she
might be onto something for sure, praise.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
And gays of homos, praeze and gays of homos.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
At least she's pretty, so she won't starve. Maybe I
don't know, I got I don't know.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
You thinks Iranians maintain such good women and LGBT rights as.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Well well, that they have a good leader Ayatola.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Yeah, yeah, he's.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Very pro LGBT. They said he wants the next Iyatota
to queen out.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
No a guy, but he's a queen. Oh like a
gay guy. They wanted a gay guy to be in charge. Yah,
who cares?
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Is actually because Prophet Muhammad actually had a lot of
gay friends.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Oh yeah, yeah, Oh that's cool. The other dude just
sounds I think he's stoned, right, I like, I don't,
I don't know. There's something a little off there. She's
just hitting buzzwords, man, Just buzzword after buzzword after buzzword.
Just cobble them together, signal your virtue and and move on.
(09:49):
But and again, she's at a protest. She not want
she didn't grab somebody walking out the office. She's at
a protest on this issue kind of partially. I mean
that's what this is. This is audio from the one
of the No Kings thing over the weekend, and he
(10:10):
got the he got the reaction he was looking for.
So congrats for that, all right. Eight eight eight nine
three four seven eight seven four. I know nothing else
about the Barbie festival that we say. The links are
out there. Sorry, somebody sent me a very weird email
like I'm the barber. I just saw the thing. I
(10:32):
know nothing. Okay, all right, very good, Um let me
do uh hang on, oh you gotta reset at how
nice for you? Let me uh let me go ahead
and kick in over to this. So I mentioned we
have an update on the Air Canada situation. So when
last we left, you had the CEO of Air Canada,
(10:54):
who oh you know what? Ross? Can you put the
the the fine Prime Minister of Canada up there, who
was excoriating the CEO of Air Canada. So clearly we
had a tragedy a couple of weeks ago where you
have this commuter jet, it's an Air Canada commuter jet
and it finds itself colliding with a fire truck and
(11:15):
both pilots were killed, right, very sad situation up at LaGuardia,
and so as the CEO of Air Canada, he comes out,
he has he's got to do the press conference. Hey,
we're working with us, you know, because it happened in
the US in TSB. We'll get to the bottom of it.
We're going to figure out what happened. My condolences to
the families of the pilots, any of the passengers who
(11:37):
were injured. This is a horrible thing, you know, pretty
standard stuff. In fact, here we go, we live.
Speaker 6 (11:42):
As I just said in hold on.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
I hit the damn button too early. So so here
we go, and he does this thing, and it was
it was absolute corporate cookie cutter, what you expect. And
I don't know anything about this guy personally. I'm not
saying he doesn't care. But it didn't even move the needle.
The only reason anybody started talking about it is because
(12:07):
in the face of this tragedy, after two of your
citizens have been killed in this accident, because the pilots
were both Canadian, you as the Prime Minister, decide that
you have to go up and make a point and
haul him in front of a tribunal for whole practical purposes.
I'm not exaggerating. Listen to this.
Speaker 6 (12:29):
We live, as I just said, in a bilingual country.
We probably know bilingual country and companies like Eric Canada
particularly have a responsibility to always communicate in both official languages,
regardless of the situation.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
See it doesn't speak.
Speaker 6 (12:46):
I'm very disappointed in others or whatever. Right, so in
this unilingual message of the CEO of Eric Canada. It
doesn't matter at the certain simes, but particularly in these circumstances,
a lack of judgment and lack of compassion.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Lack of compassion? How is it a lack of compassion?
You know?
Speaker 6 (13:09):
The Committee Official Languages has summoned the CEO of appear
before it. I will follow his comments closely and comments
which I would expect and due course from the Board
of Directors.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I've been summoned by a useless committe or he's been
summoned by a useless committee to be excoriated. Also, Ross,
I didn't hear the Prime Minister do a land acknowledgment
before he started flapping his gums. I think we got
to throw him in whatever the Tower of London, but
not the London over in the UK, the London right
across from Detroit and then if we don't have a tower,
(13:42):
we got to build one. So well, here's the update.
Michael Rousseau, who is the Air Canada CEOs like, I'm
out announcing yesterday that he's going to he's going to
be leaving before the third quarter. Now they're not saying
that this is what did it, but there wasn't really
speculation that he was leaving. And now all of a
(14:03):
sudden he's like, I'm not I'm done with this, oh
so announcing that he'll retire by the end of the
third quarter of twenty twenty six. This sounds like behind
the scenes stuff with like you know, prickly board members
like super woke and they're just like, well, we gotta go.
We're not gonna openly fire you, but you got to
put you out to pastors so we can get I
(14:27):
don't know, a disabled first person's you know, tick all
the boxes. New leadership team in here. Yeah, they ran
the dude and you can't convince me otherwise because he
doesn't speak French and he was not being compassionate by
you know, actually coming out and making a statement. Sounds like,
(14:50):
you know, handling this the way that you would expect
the CEO to handle it running from his job. Yeah,
Canada's man, Canada's place now. And I used to say that,
man mean it in a good way. I love going
to Canada when I lived to Minnesota. Man, going up
and doing going fishing up in northwest Ontario. If you're
(15:11):
into fishing, well, first of all, I don't call it
if you're into catchen. Let's be honest, what's going on here.
It's a special place up there. Good morning, six thirty
five here on the KCO Day radio program, Man oh Man.
The level of dishonesty here. So, and there's multiple accounts
that are doing this, and I can't decide. Some of
(15:32):
them I think are just dishonest clearly, but others I
might just be stupid.
Speaker 5 (15:39):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Here we go. The night hasn't even ended, and we
have yet another major escalation which makes no sense. The
US and or Israel just struck a major water source
in western Iran. This means Iran will likely retaliate by
striking blah blah blah. Then they talk about why you know,
(16:00):
there's not a lot of water over there or easy
to get water, and so doing that is essentially a
war crime because so the plan is to let Iranians
die of thirst. Yeah, you guys want to know what
actually happened? Any interest in that, because like I can
tell you and it will let you know what you're
(16:22):
dealing with here, And I can tell you by this
little breaking news announcement, International Atomic Energy Agency says Iran's
heavy water production plant in kon Dab whatever was, has
sustained severe damage. Yeah. So, I guess if you guys
don't know this, water and heavy water are different things.
(16:45):
You don't in fact, don't drink heavy water. Okay. Heavy
water is essentially the slurry that's utilized for the for
the purpose of enrichment of uranium and the operation of
nuclear power plants. That's what heavy water is. Heavy water
is not water. Nobody's gonna die of thirst because if
(17:05):
they did drink it, they die of other stuff. And
that's the level of dishonesty you're dealing with with people
who literally co are come on like Piers Morgan Show
and MSNBC and others, and I can't tell if they're
dumb or dishonest or both. But that was that was
a doozy. Ah's that was that was I did not
(17:27):
expect that, but yet here we are. All right, so
here we go. Let's go ahead and get into the
audio show. We So we got a couple members of
Congress we've got to deal with. And and remember they're
all on vacation, they're doing this stuff. I had to
watch Lindsey Graham at Disney walking around with a bubble thing,
(17:47):
one of the like a bubble gun. I don't know
what's going on over there, but uh yeah, And and
they're tracking it tmzs like tracking all this stuff. They're
actually doing something useful this week. And it's pretty damning
because there's still a bunch of people who are either
(18:07):
not getting paid or the allocated money when it does
run out, will lead to that because of the games
we play. And also you even have some that are
upset that Trump kind of tried to figure out how
to pay the TSA because that's that they need that
bargaining ship right there. So with all of this going on,
(18:28):
it's a logical question why why should you, as a
member of Congress get paid if people are literally selling
plasma to feed their kids because you want to play
political games and just the outright rejection of it, you
like here is Rep. Adam Smith from Washington.
Speaker 7 (18:46):
Do you support the idea that members of Congress are
the ones that should not get paid if there's a
government shut down in the future.
Speaker 8 (18:52):
I Look, we are trying to resolve differences that people have,
this notion that somehow Congress is separate from the American
people holding it up because we just don't know. Look,
there's a lot of passion on this issue.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
You will agree with this.
Speaker 8 (19:04):
I saw the interview that you did just before this.
People who want more enforcement. I got people in my
district who are upset about what ICE agents are doing
and they want protection from that where we're not fighting
over who gets the TV remote.
Speaker 7 (19:17):
But no, I'm just saying that if there's going to
be another like, why should it be the TSA agents
and those and the government workers that are making a
forty five thousand dollars a year they go a month
without a paycheck that it matters to them.
Speaker 8 (19:28):
Absolutely, Yeah, no, they should get paid. But also it's
kind of written into the Constitution that you can't use
the pay of representatives as a leverage point on how
to get policies and the thing that keep.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Coming so screw you. Essentially, if I could just sum
up the fifty four seconds of nonsense. There, screw you.
I'm a member of Congress. Will do whatever we're going
to do. I remember, he's acting like ooha, they're looking
for protections. They are not. They're looking for protections in
the form of no, not deporting anybody. That doesn't count
(19:58):
as protection in the general. So he's he's being patently dishonest,
just off the front now. So he's like that, I expect.
What I didn't expect, although I probably should have, is
that now they're mad that some of them are getting paid.
Here is Rep. Jim Hines.
Speaker 9 (20:18):
What did Democrats get out of this standoff?
Speaker 10 (20:22):
Yeah, well, Margaret, the standoff is not done yet, right
the president is illegally paying apparently TSA agents. You had
the Senate, as you pointed out with mister Honan Homan,
pass a bipartisan bill unanimously in the United States Senate
to say, look, let's fund everybody else and let's deal
with this thorny issue about ice. And then you had
(20:43):
the Republican House say hell, no, we're not doing that.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because you didn't say you're gonna
deal with everybody else. You left three distinct slices out
of there, so you know the fact that he's doing it,
and you know he's illegally paying him. How does how
is how is he? I understand you can get a
judge to say that, because you all have been very
talented at getting judges to say whatever you want, only
to have them, you know, eventually overturned. But you know,
(21:08):
we're here to run out the clock. That's why we're
doing what we do. And now and now you're upset,
and you're upset. It is unquestionable you're upset because it
removed one of these issues and Trump will gets to
look like he's doing something. Why you all are just
sitting there having a five hundred dollars brunch at the Bilagio,
(21:30):
which is what two of the senators were seen doing,
five hundred, five hundred dollars brunch. Ross you guys ever
go out for brunch or maybe back in the day
obviously before you had the five hundred dollars brunch? Was
it good? It's like four hundred though, like four hundred
probably for three hundred, three hundred. No, that's insane because
(21:50):
that's not normal. And I understand that there are many
wealthy members of Congress. But the optics of you going
to the Bolagio to patios like they have these three
s patio restaurants there. I've only I've never eaten there,
and I've stayed at the Blage and I'm like, hell no,
I'm not going down to that thing. And and you know,
(22:11):
the optics of you sitting there after you've just fled
DC so you can have brunch with your little lobbyist
friend or whatever it was actually going on there. People
are going to react to that. I don't I don't
begrudge you spending your money, but you have like you
have to care about the optics of that. They just don't.
It's the ultimate let them eat cake. In this case,
it's just five hundred dollars brunch cake. I'm sure it's
(22:33):
very good. Not the cattle like cake that much. But
you know the other other items on there. All right,
we have, dude, there's so many heist going on over
in Europe. Like in the last year they just had
an art heist. Of course, we had, you know, the
the Louver heist, that's you know art, and they've had
(22:54):
they had a second thing with the Louver like that.
We're in the we're in like every like Ronan style
wonderful heist movies with really like in the eighties and
early two thousands like that was just in the prime
with all the heist movies. So we'll bring up to
(23:15):
speed on what's going on there. Also, we got to
talk about the Bulls. What the Chicago Bulls have done
with one of their players for some some postings and
some rants that he went on, which again is you know,
as soon as you start comparing and contrasting some of
this stuff, I think raises questions with certain fans like
(23:37):
what will get you literally kicked off a professional team,
a team that you're good enough and you are a
good player, that they're still not willing to deal with you.
Usually that bars is pretty high. You can get away,
depend on which team you're on, you could get away
damn near everything. But for the Chicago Bulls, Nope, they
decided to waive him for conduct detrimental to the team.
(24:00):
I'll fill you in on the details of that and
wait till you hear what the Michigan Democrats senate candidate said.
Allowed people are calling it a smear campaign. I don't
know if it's a smear campaign, if you just roll
the audio of somebody. But we got it and it
(24:20):
has to do well. It has to do with what's
going on over in Iran and how he views his
constituents or would be constituents there in the great state
of Michigan. So we'll get to all that more coming
up Cacoday Radio program the phone number eight eight eight
nine three four seven eight seventy four as we get
things rolling. Well, that's nice, come on call screener, thinking
(24:46):
is thinking about stuff? Yeah, I don't know, man, there's
something to do. There's something something going on with the
network today. So Roz, I don't have any calls holding
do I? Okay, all right, let's go ahead and X
those out and I'll have to Yeah, I might have
(25:06):
to actually wake the engineer up. I don't know what's
going on. All right, A couple of things. Sorry, I
got distracted by that because I don't know. I'm being
punished for something. I'm sure I deserve it. I just
don't know what it is. Hey, do me a favor
if any of you go see the Easter Bunny thinking
of doing that with the kids, but you're an adult
(25:28):
when you're there. If you could not sexually assault the
Easter Bunny. That's gonna be really helpful because like one
for the you know, for the bunny, right because he
doesn't want that too generally there's gonna be kids around,
they don't need to see that. But unfortunately some dude
in New Jersey didn't get the memo on this. A
(25:51):
New Jersey man was arrested after he allegedly groped an
Easter Bunny mascot during a photo op at a mall
in Pennsylvania, but insisted he thought the costume was a doll.
This is a weird story. So one, there's a picture
of the setup here and it's the standard mall setup
(26:13):
that you get for you be an Easter Bunny could
be you know, it could be Santa right there. So
you have like the village built out, and then it
has fencing around it, and then it has like stanchions
so that people can line up so that they can
go see the Easter Bunny, which, by the way, I
(26:36):
don't remember. Maybe it was a regional thing. I don't
remember going and doing the photo op with the bunny
like you do with Santa, where you go see Santa
as a kid. Is that a thing that hat roster.
Was that something you guys did as a kid, Whether
there would be Easter bunnies at the mall for photo ops? Yeah, okay,
so it's just wyoming thing. Would you say, I'm sorry,
(27:00):
you know, it's definitely a thing. Yeah, Oh okay, I'm
just I missed out. I guess I just because they
had sand at them all up in Sheridan and if
you went to Casper in Buffalo. I can't remember if
we ever had anything but and but that was the
standard thing. You'd go up to Sheridan and then they'd
have it over there to go see Santa. But I
do not remember them ever having the Eastern thing.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
It's like a cultural thing. You guys are probably like
shooting all the bunnies and eating them. I imagine cosm feffer.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
They're delicious. It's not my fault. They're delicious, is it?
I feel like that's not my fault. Also, the little
dummies color face too soon. It's on them right if
you go if you go stark white, if you've color
phase as a rabbit to prepare for winter and you
go white and then the snow melts, I don't even
have to hunt that hard to find you you're just like,
(27:48):
just look good, go int the woods, look for marshmallows. Man.
So but that but here's the thing, here's where your
theory falls apart, because you think, if we were shooting
all everything, like we're Jimbo from south Park, that Anna's
gonna bring his reindeer near us. Hell no, everyone, I
got twenty buddies right now would love nothing more than
add a reindeer head to their to their collection, next
(28:12):
to their elk, that moose they got and some big bullies. Man.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yeah, you had Sanna in December, and then around March
or April you add the Easter buddy, and then in
July you have the talking walking flag, right, that's the
thing people do. And then yeah, and then around October
you have the Great Pumpkin. That is that that's the
big four.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
What you did?
Speaker 2 (28:35):
You did the American flag, right, you go and you
sit on the American Union.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
It's uh, it's you know what, I think, Maybe we're
just busy, that's uh. That's uh. That's probably first cut
harvest time right around there. So it's the first cut
afalfa cut. So yeah, probably I guess we missed out
on him.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
So this guy's story he thought it was. Did he
think it was like an old Chucky cheese sort of
like animatronic doll, like.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Well, here's here's where, here's where it falls apart because
he's telling the police post. Uh, uh, you know, arrest.
Oh I thought it was a doll. And again if
you look at in fact, hang on, because there's no
way you're going to assume that this is anything, that
this is a doll. It would be the best way
(29:24):
to describe it. There's no way you're going to assume
it is anything but what you exactly what you think
it is a living, breathing person, you know thing. So uh,
hang on and and and again, even if you never
see it move, just look at the position it's sitting
in and and like it's on a throne. It's on
(29:46):
a throne that's like a tulip or something. There's no question.
Plus there's signage and then there's a person with a camera.
You're not confusing it the process. So then they asked, yeah,
hold on, let me uh New York Posts and their
(30:07):
pop ups. Here's the story. So Bearra Shriva Krishna, I'm
I'm probably not even close, but anyway, so Barra wandered
up to the eastern display at the South Hills Village
Mall on Monday and allegedly forced himself onto the mascot.
(30:30):
According to a criminal complaint obtained by CBS News, the
female worker the mascot could do little against her assailant
before he pounced on her. Shreve Kishna lobbed bizarre questions
that the mascot, asking if the bunny was a boy
or a girl. When the mascot politely refused him or
(30:52):
referred him to her assistant. Because again there's a bunch
of kids around, like, you know, go talk to the
I don't know what the bunnies is is here but beara,
Shrikrishna decided he was just gonna feel the mascot up
to determine the bunny's sex. He grabbed her arms, her chest,
(31:13):
and several other portions of her body. His hands continued
to inch further up until he shoved his fingers. Don't worry,
it's not gonna go there. Shoved his fingers inside the
costume's nose and mouth, and then wandered off. Shortly after,
the victim essentially was like started yelling, which again, how
(31:33):
horrible for the kids that are there. You got some
dude who's you know, trying to assault the Easter buddy,
and then the Easter Buddy has to let out a
blood curdling scream. One hundred and forty dollars chocolate easter
bunny that weighs ten pounds. But if you think you do,
Costco apparently is selling one. Yeah, so just a time
(31:58):
for Easter. Costco is selling a ten pounds giant chocolate bunny,
which you'll need a hammer to eat. Apparently, is very
very This is not your standard uh chocolate bunny here.
It's got a little heft to it and in fact,
they say you'll need a hammer to eat it, which,
by the way, uh that that you know, that is
(32:19):
interesting because a hammer can be used to both eat
this bunny and a real bunny if you know you're
fast enough. So but yeah, I I don't know unless
you live in like a sorority house, I don't know
how this thing gets eaten fast enough for some of
it doesn't go bad. But that is that's the thing
that exists, So have fun with that. So you know
(32:42):
how we're fascinated by Heiss here on the show, and uh,
it's been Uh it's been a busy last few months
over over in Europe. Dude, clearly you know they're obviously
the Louver. You know what happened at the Louver that
that captured a lot of it. But uh in in Italy,
h whereas this it's northern Italy. I think that's in Parma, Okay,
(33:06):
at the museum there. Three paintings were heisted. The heightst
took place overnight, so it's actually happened last week. I
did not hear about it, but I just saw it yesterday.
But here here's what's impressive to the you know, from
a heist perspective, obviously, don't steal people's paintings. That being said,
(33:28):
these apparently this is an organ It was very organized.
They were in and out and got three paintings, and
they did so in exactly three minutes. And that's important
because that is the that is the that is the
about the maximum window where you can do something like
that without being interfered with law enforcement or at triggering
(33:51):
the secondary alarm, which I don't understanding the story what
they mean by that, But so these got My point
is they knew, they knew in an hour. Like Thomas
Crown affair, speed of things.
Speaker 11 (34:02):
Man.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
The three stolen paintings were Fish by Renoir, Uh, Still
Life with Cherries by Saison, and Obelisk on the Terrace
by Matisse or so yeah, yeah, Ross is trying to
get me to pronounce it wrong, and I almost said
it wrong, but all told, listen to this. So each
(34:27):
all those those artists and and this is just in
the last year where they've had paintings stolen. This year
Magnanti Dura. I don't know if I'm pronouncing that right.
I think I did Rubens, van Dyck, Goya and Monet.
So like it's bit it's a busy like this what
And then the thing is you're you're clearly going to
(34:50):
private collectors, right, You're not going to put that thing
on eBay. So you know, generally they say it's with
stolen art like this, they the buyer, they already know
where the buyer is, and sometimes they may commission the
acquisition of it. Also sometimes it's an insurance fraud thing
because it's on loan, because I saw that in several
heist movies. So now I'm going to say it's a thing.
(35:13):
The museum believes the structure and organized gang is responsible.
The museum did not post any statement about the theft
on its website and would not comment. The crime in
Parma comes after a series of high profile heists at
major European museums. Put in the thieves at the Louver
and they have a few others here. So yeah, there
(35:36):
is We're in the golden age of heist right now,
which is kind of kind of crazy. Ross. If you
could steal a painting, if you want to do it,
you know, let's let's fantasize about heist. Which painting would
you steal?
Speaker 2 (35:48):
I would steal the painting from Ferris Bueller's Day Off
at the Stair. I put it right in my living room.
Speaker 1 (35:54):
Well, you you know, there might be some paintings out
there that are you know, worth a little more money.
Not to say that's not a classic. It actually probably
is worth a lot of money. But uh, maybe a
Bob Ross would be nice to be nice. Yeah, yeah,
So you want to put the Ferris Bueller next to
data petting a cat.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Yeah, I think it would be a good, uh, side
by side, look great, you know.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
A little little light to focus on it. You know,
I feel like the problem then you would have so
much valuable artwork that I would be forced to hoist
your house.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
I'd have to put in my own laser system with
the moving lasers up and down.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
And you've been trying to talk to wife into that anyway.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
For a long time.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
Yeah, just for exercise. She's like, we don't need lasers, Like,
don't you want to dance to dance?
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Well, you mentioned it before in the show, but a
lot of times these guys that steal these these classic
or you know, historic pieces of art, they steal it
as a way to have a get out of jail
free card. Because you know, that's a very good point, yes,
because they steal them obviously they're they're they do they
steal other things too, right if you're that good at
stealing something like banks and yeah, and that sort of thing.
So there was a store, try you about a art
(37:01):
museum that was in Boston, I believe, where there are
priceless works of art stolen from that. And later on
they found the guy and he was involved in a
bunch of bank robberies around Canada or something like that
and in Europe, and to get out of free, to
avoid jail time or like to take a lot of
time off, he was like, Hey, by the way, I
have this Rembrandt in the grandmother's basement that I've had
(37:23):
forever that they stole, and I'm going to use that
to like get time off my sentence and I'll give
it back to whatever museum I stole it from, and
then the deal is done, and they're like, all right,
give it to us, and then we'll take twenty years
off your sentence and it's done.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
I'm just surprised at anything of value in Boston. Yeah,
and that they have an appreciation for artwork there, So
I mean, that's that's the real takeaway there. Yeah, yeah,
who knows. Man, Yeah, you're right. If they're stealing paintings,
they're stealing other stuff. Because if you're good at heisting,
you're good at heisting.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Yeah. If you're in and out of that museum in
three minutes and stealing those classic pieces of art, you've
done other stuff too. That's like not your first gig.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
Man, oh man, all right eight eight eight nine three
four seven eight seven four, Um, all right, uh let
me uh, let me do this here real quick. Oh wait,
hold on, somebody's mad about Oh if Boston's so on cultured,
then why is Harvard and MIT there. You want to know,
(38:17):
I'll tell you whether they're since you asked the question.
The reason that Harvard and MIT there is because Harvard
and MIT are very expensive, right, and so the type
of people who would be inclined to send their children there,
they want to make sure that their children, from a
self esteem standpoint, feel like they're getting the bank for
(38:39):
their buck. You, as the person paying for it, you
want to think your kid is far smarter than any
any anybody else out there. So when you take those
types of students and then you stick them in the
middle of common Boston rabble, they appear so much smarter
(39:00):
because the bar's so low for you know, the median
thing there. Do you understand what I'm what I'm saying here,
you feel like even if you you feel a lot
smarter when the people around you are dumber because they're
such a large differential. That's why they're located there. Is
the theory that I just came up with and I
(39:20):
think is true, but we don't even have to test it,
so uh to answer your question, So thanks for writing,
and you know what, congratulations on being able to manipulate
what you know your thing there and send the send
the digital thing there and actually get it to me.
You did a good, good job, you get a gold star. Okay, okay,
(39:43):
right handled, boy, here's a criminal is not too good
at it. Eastern North Carolina Task Force nabs Texas driver
near Greenville with nearly twenty pounds of cocaine clad with
Coca Cola logos. Ross I sent you a link to
the story. How do you think police were able to
tell that was cocaine? Are they psychic? They might? They
(40:08):
must be psychic, because it's clearly that looks like a
Coca Cola. It says so right on the label there.
I don't know. I don't know how they know. It's
just it's it's bricks of cocaine that for some reason
they put Coca Cola stickers on. But you can still
see all the cocaine. It's the you know, the wrapped
bricks of kilos of cocaine that you've seen in every movie.
(40:30):
And uh, I guess unless you're a criminal and you
see him in front of you. But good on them. Again,
what did he do? I've met the driver did something stupid.
This is this is the thing that just kills me.
Let's see, so this happened. You're Greenville using North Carolina
Drug Task Force stopped a Texas driver the twenty pounds
(40:53):
of cocaine, again disguised as Coca cola, but not very well, Um,
what are they stopping for? Okay, so they they made
a stop where they already knew that he had the stuff. Okay,
all right, So it wasn't one of these I'm driving
around with all the drugs and I don't have tail lights.
Because those stories happen, and it just blows me away
(41:14):
the amount of times where somebody had a giant meth
bust or something because some guy's driving down the highway
at ninety five miles an hour on I ninety five
with no headlights on at two in the morning, and
then you know, just Johnny State troopers just sit there
doing their job, gets the superbust because some guy just
you know, gets a little heavy on the accelerator even
(41:37):
though he's loaded up with drugs. So this was, yeah,
they they knew who they were looking for. They knew
who they were looking for. Now, don't get me wrong,
there is a certain kind of dark humor by putting
Coca Cola labels on kilos of cocaine considering the history there,
(42:00):
so I get what they were going for, but you
probably you probably have to do better in the old
disguised department, would be my advice to you. All right,
let's do this seven sixteen here on the CaCO Day
Radio program. All right, so I promised you the I'm
sorry I did not send the coke thing to us
(42:20):
there so we can retweet it. Sorry I didn't hit send.
It's on its way now. I mentioned that there is
a candidate up in Michigan who wants to be the
next senator for Michigan. They're still in primary phase there
so he hasn't made it clear through the primary, but
he's had some audio leak and it's all about his
(42:41):
reaction to the the the Iran the initial Iran strikes
and what he's concerned that his constituents may themselves be
concerned about. And it's a doozy and it's coming up
next here on the CaCO Day Radio program. Man oh man,
this is I would just say it's not a good look,
(43:02):
but maybe for this guy in lunatics in Michigan. It
is one of the would be Democrat Senate nominees. So
that you know they've got a big Senate race up
in Michigan, and he is one of I guess four
that are kind of like in the mix. This guy's
name Abdul l si Ed. And so what happened was
(43:27):
he's sitting there, he's having a staff meeting and they
are discussing because what it had, you know, they just
had this going back to when we first went after
I ran how they want to react to that, how
they want to approach that. Do we issue a statement,
do we make a comment to you know, for asked
what do we say? And yes, this is pretty standard stuff.
(43:50):
The discussion is not. However, it's it's really really creepy.
And I'll let you figure Out's see if you can
pick up on the part that creep me out.
Speaker 11 (44:01):
Okay, there are a lot of people in our country
and in the Middle East who are breathing a bit
of a sigh of relief today. Right now, I think
that that that breath of relief is going to be
short because we have no idea what's coming next. And
(44:24):
in fact, like what the CIA say isn't exactly.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
Encouraging in terms of, you know, what, what's going to.
Speaker 11 (44:31):
Happen in this scenario. But I'm worry that at least initially,
Trump gets a decent bump off of this.
Speaker 1 (44:42):
There's no doubt.
Speaker 8 (44:43):
And the issue is it's just like immigration in that way,
is like he looks really strong for a minute. Yeah,
and then we're gonna be the help of the ones
who have narrated the guns all along.
Speaker 1 (44:55):
Okay, all right, So you know, initially they're at they're like,
how's this going to play? What should we do? Trump's
gonna get a bump. We don't like that. It's not
bad analysis for the most part, I don't think it
would be. I don't think it's gonna be instant one
and done. On the Iran stuff, I think he puts
boots on the ground's little different. But that's not the
part that's not That's not where people are are freaking
(45:19):
out a little over this. It's it's this part right here.
I think this is going to wise reason house. I
want to remind you guys that there are a lot
of people in Dearborn who are sad today. So like,
I just don't want to comment on the money. I'm
an a at all. I don't think it's worth touching that.
(45:40):
I'm sorry, So he's talking about in Dearborn, Michigan, that
there's a lot of people that are saying that's a problem. Right.
If a lot of people are sad, are openly sad
today because they greased the guy who is running the
largest state sponsor of terror's country regime in the world,
(46:01):
I feel like that could be problematic. Seven thirty five
Kcoday of Radio KCO Day Radio program. Sorry, I got
distracted there. We sadly we have we've lost somebody. Let's
get the taker bell out and you know what, I
(46:22):
will say this, this this individual, he has had a
he has had a very rough go of it over
the last few years. Uh. You know clearly when he
burst onto the scene, it was it was huge just
to meet. It was in a very famous movie. I'm
that movie, right, if from a modern Disney from a
(46:46):
Disney movie. From a modern Disney standpoint, is there a
movie that has been bigger than Frozen in the last
five years or no, probably ten year. I don't remember
when that movie came out, but arguably Ross that's got
to be probably the if you were to go over
the from the time it came out to now, it
has to be the biggest Disney movie because it was
everywhere if I know the storyline, and I you know,
(47:09):
I don't. I don't watch any of that, and then
I see it everywhere, and then like it has to
be one of the biggest Well, I'm just gonna come
right out and say it. We've lost Olaf area. Yeah,
you can hear it. You can hear him. So that's
(47:30):
the animatronic. That's the animatronic ol offt that apparently they
have at Disney. I know, does it always out in
the middle, because it I kind of felt like it
was out in the middle of everything and people would
just kind of get around it, which was kind of weird.
And what does it do? It talks well in the video,
which again there's a there's a dark side of it
(47:52):
because I did laugh, you know the first time I
watched that video, because I can't imagine being kids that
are there, right, because it's at Disney, and because it
just literally stops, you know, it's little animatronic motion mid
sentence and then literally falls backward, almost like comically backward,
and then his nose goes flying. So but but again,
(48:17):
maybe it's for the best because Olaf has since the
height of his movie stardom has had a really rough
patch after what happened to him at that Target store.
And if you don't remember that, luckily I do, and
I'll share it with you. We had some perv go
into a Target store, walk into the toy aisle in
the back, picked up some like I don't know, my
(48:40):
little pony or some stuff stuffed horse is how it's described,
hook up with it in the toy aisle at the Target,
and then immediately go cheat on his new equine girlfriend
or boyfriend or whatever, because he then proceeds to go
to the front of the store where they have you know,
(49:01):
you walk in, they have some sales items, so they
have like a big bin of them and they want
you to see him and the usually there's a discount,
so there was a giant bin of Oloft dolls and
then he's like, you know what, I could go again,
and then proceeded at the entrance to the store to
hook up with the Oloft doll and then, according to witnesses,
(49:25):
when he got done, he threw that Oloft doll back
into the bin. So now you don't know which ole
of doll it is. So now you've got to get
rid of all the old offt dolls. So like since then,
I don't know, I've probably been dealing with some stuff
and maybe maybe this was best. Yeah, people lunatics.
Speaker 2 (49:45):
Man, I just got a Texas said tell him to stop.
I thought he meant Josh Gadd had died what he
does olof And apparently some people were confused, thinking you
were saying that Josh Gadd, the voice actor had died.
He's fine.
Speaker 1 (50:01):
Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry. I should have stressed the part
where I said it was an animatronic so, which I
think I said multiple times, but maybe maybe when I
was teasing it. Yeah, well, good for you for knowing
who voiced the doll or voice the character. Do I
know who who Josh Gatt is? Do I know who
that is? Every what does that mean?
Speaker 11 (50:21):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (50:21):
That says that you just so happy about when you
say that that way?
Speaker 2 (50:27):
Well, you know, it's just funny that you were like, oh,
I had no idea where like every parent is like, yeah,
it's Josh kat Okay.
Speaker 1 (50:33):
I don't know, I don't well you is Josh Gatt alive?
Speaker 2 (50:38):
He's very alive and he's very did you just check
did you call him well aware that he's like he's fine.
If not, it would be all over the news.
Speaker 1 (50:46):
Okay, that's probably a good point. Yeah, No, this is
the anime, This is the robot thing. This was the
thing that did that said it'd be there for a while.
Speaker 2 (50:56):
Did you go see this when you were down at
Disney left So last time I saw it anything like
the Oloff at that it was at Magic Kingdom. And
when you go there, they have like a fireworks and
like musical like you know, choreography display like every like
I don't know, hour on the hour or something like that,
and then the end of it in the middle, but
in front of the castle, Oloff pops up and walks
around the stage. I've never actually seen him out and
(51:17):
about in front of people like they had here in France.
This was the French Oloff.
Speaker 1 (51:25):
Well then it would be just Sue God right, who
who didn't die is very much alive? Yeah? Yeah, And
then so I'm assuming the Oloff just says croissant, whole bunch,
but very naisily. Yeah, okay, all right, all right, So
it's the doll. It's or not a doll is wrong word?
Because it is it is or it was a full
(51:45):
fledged animatronic. I cannot attest to whether the actors okay,
but Ross seems to think he's okay, because if not,
everyone be losing their minds on the internets. All right,
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four,
probably just horrified some kids too. Well, look watching well
off pitch over, probably horrified some kids. So who's the
(52:10):
true culprit here?
Speaker 3 (52:12):
Ummmmm?
Speaker 1 (52:13):
Where did I just put this other story? Kind of
wanted this to be the lead into mister Stagic there. Oh, this,
I gonna do the stripper story. It's not as exciting
as you think, and it actually there is some some
real questions there here is okay, so let me let
me do this. So did you see what the mayor
Providence is doing? All right? So the mayor Providence is
(52:36):
very upset over a mural. Uh yeah, Providence Rhde Island.
Clearly after a mural was painted on the side of
a building, a commissioned mural. This is not graffiti. This
is not graffiti. Providence Bear has called for the removal
of a new mural, which features, among others, Irena Zarutzka, Yeah,
(53:02):
saying that the mural is divisive and misguided. He's also
upset too because the person who commissioned the mural did
so as part of the member with Elon muskaid he
would he had a million dollars for people want to
do murals and things like that. So I guess this
artist got a grant of some sort. It's not a
million bucks. They got a small amount of money to
(53:23):
do this. And then they, oh, geez, all right, Peigon
officials are going to hold some briefing on Operation Epic Fury,
and that's in my breaking news, so we'll buzz in
on that. See what it is. So anyway, yeah, so
this guy pays some mirror. He's not even all the
way done with it, and this little weenie of a mayor,
this little tiny man which he is, has decided that
(53:45):
that is offensive. Now, people pointed out that there are
three George Floyd murals in Providence, and this dude is
upset that they want to put one with Arena Zarutska.
By the way, ay, they also have murals for that Abnue,
the cop killer in Providence. I'm just looking at the
list here. Murals for everything, but this guy's upset because
(54:10):
God forbid, it reminds people of what happens in these
soft on crime cities where you're like, oh, well, it's
your eighty seventh chance, make the most of it. People
are sick of this stuff. And I guess she has
some tie to Providence too. It's just not some random thing,
although I'm not super clear on what it is. She's
got another family member over there. I don't know. It
(54:33):
doesn't matter. George Floyd didn't have any tie to Providence,
and they got three of his murals there. But let's
see here, and people point out that Providence has they
have an issue of being notoriously soft on crime, and
apparently this mayor is one of the reasons his whole attitude.
(54:54):
So what does he want? Is he gonna? Is he gonna?
I guess he's asking at this point. But now, okay,
so they're going to look into whether whether they can
force them to take it down. He said. He continues
to encourage our community to support local artists whose work
bring us closer together, but not ones who divide us. Okay,
(55:15):
his name is Brett Smiley, and he looks exactly like
you think he looks. This little weenie dude. All right,
let me grab mister Ray Stagic from the Weather Channel
to bless you with the forecasts of joyous. Uh yeah,
but less could we go less windy? It was a
little breezy yesterday. Yeah, I had some outsdore outdoor things
(55:38):
I was doing. Yea. And our ten to our promotions
ten almost blew away up at the Martinsville Race this weekend.
So talk at our promotions person. Yeap, oh, well can't
have that. No, no, those are you know how the
stations get man and somewhere somebody's gonna have a bouncy house.
There's gonna be kids, and then you know how that goes.
Speaker 12 (55:56):
So you'll make TV if you ought to make have
a bouncy house blowaway. Milder this morning, a light gust
fifteen today. That's not terrible, so light breeze should be
plenty of sunshine. Dry weather continues either side of eighty,
depending where you are up seventies Triad, probably near just
above eighty for the Triangle, close to sixty tonight, and
(56:19):
we get in April with sunshine little bit eighties Tomorrow, Thursday,
mostly Sunday, little bit eighties. Friday sunshine a little bit eighties.
Speaker 1 (56:26):
Now that is.
Speaker 12 (56:29):
Forecast for the Triangle. You go west into the Triad
and especially further west into the mountains. As we go
through Tomorrow and Thursday, there is going to be a
chance of seeing some isolated showers and thundershowers. The best
chance will be as you get probably even west of
the Triad, but if you are heading toward you know,
areas that get a little bit of elevation, there may
(56:51):
be a few more showers thundershowers around. I think most
of the rain's going to stay away from the Triangle,
but we'll have to watch it closely because you go
a few miles west into the Triad, there could be
a little wet weather scattered around, and we do need it.
Either way, It's not gonna be widespread. It's gonna stay warm,
but the records are closer now to ninety degrees later
in the week so even though we're in the low
to mid eighties, not really going to be getting any
(57:14):
record warmth. And then Saturday looks good, but Sunday Easter Sunday,
we do have a chance of showers. Highs over the
weekend will stay in the low to mid eighties, and
then that front will go through and it's cold front
and bring temperatures back down to reality on Monday with
a few showers around his will be in the load
to mid sixties, so eighties all week, and again we'll
start to see at least a few showers thunder showers
(57:36):
Wednesday through Friday about from the triad west, but as
you go west the chances do go up. I think
the best chance is going to be tomorrow. Other than that,
not a bunch around. But I did a little poking
around on the wildfires. There's two of them right now
in the mountains burning and they're about at twenty percent containment.
So I certainly could use for the two larger fires
(57:57):
in the state.
Speaker 1 (57:57):
I certainly could use.
Speaker 12 (57:58):
A little bit of rain.
Speaker 1 (58:00):
Yeah, well, year's I know it's going to rain because
I have to drive from our Greensborough studios back to Raleigh,
and I get it. For whatever reason, you always attack
me with rain when I'm doing that.
Speaker 12 (58:09):
So what are you driving?
Speaker 5 (58:11):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (58:12):
Right right around lunch?
Speaker 12 (58:13):
So you're good today Today, you'll be fine.
Speaker 1 (58:15):
I have famous last words, my friend, famous last check out. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
we'll figure it out, all right, thank you? Yeah, raced agic.
They're from the Weather Channel, all right, coming up. They
arrested the literal Statue of Liberty. According to lunatics on
the inner net. So we'll get into that. Uh and
(58:36):
the Jade n Ivy story, we got to talk about
that as well, coming up k c O Day radio program.
Speaker 10 (58:41):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (58:41):
The protesters is a photo of a woman who is
dressed as the statue of liberty. And you know what,
mm not the worst? I mean because I remember you.
I remember what happened yesterday. I scarred my brain forever
(59:03):
because I was like, oh, they're wait, people were toplessly
protesting mar A Lago. Let's swing by and see who
that was. And you don't want to do that. You
don't want to do that, Do not do that. I
took one for all the teams. But here, I don't know,
maybe it's the outfit. But here's the thing, UH Like,
(59:24):
let me give you this is some of the sentiment.
That's it. That's the best picture from the note Kings protests,
the literal statue of liberty being detained by police. That's
not the literal statue of liberty. I'm almost positive one.
She looks like she's about five foot six, five foot five.
Maybe I don't know how to all that cop is
maybe even shorter than that. And as somebody who has
(59:46):
laid eyes upon the actual statue of Liberty, as many
of you have. It is slightly larger. Plus, I don't
know that the statue of Liberty has sleeved tattoos. Maybe
I brought ross. Would you see if this statue of
Liberty has grunge band sleeve tattoos? Oh it does not. Okay,
(01:00:07):
so there's some clues. I'm just saying there's some clues. Also,
I don't think the statue Liberty has a choker chain.
This girl's into some stuff. I think he can, but
she's also a protester. She's not the literal statue of Liberty. Okay,
all right, So glad that we cleared that up. Jade
and Ivy bulls waveguard Jade and Ivy over anti gay comments.
(01:00:33):
So apparently Jade and Ivy has he has he has
thrown himself into religious conversion. I'm not sure how recent
this is, but he decided that he had a real
problem with the involvement of the bulls in and the
(01:00:54):
pride stuff that they were getting in there, and he
not only didn't want to not he didn't want to
participate in it, claiming that, you know, from a religious perspective,
this is celebrating quote unrighteousness. Yeah, he called out the
NBA for promoting Pride Months, saying it celebrates unrighteousness. In
(01:01:16):
the video, he says, the world proclaims lgbt right. They
proclaim Pride Month, and the NBA does too. They show
it to the world, they say, come join us for
Pride Month, to celebrate unrighteousness. They proclaim it on the billboards,
proclaim it on the streets. It's unrighteousness. This, you know,
as far as quote unquote homophobic attacks, this is not that.
(01:01:38):
It is not as aggressive as as some people were
making it out yesterday. But after hearing from the bulls
that they were going to cut them dude to conduct
detrimental to the team, he said, why didn't they just
say we don't agree with his stance on LGBTQ. Why
didn't they say it? How is conduct detrimental to the team?
(01:02:01):
What did I do to the team? What did I
do to the players? Yeah, I mean that's for you know,
for all the stuff where we've seen pro athletes. You know,
something happens, but if you're good enough, they'll go ahead
and keep you around. Not obligated to do it, but
I get so my question is is is there a
lot of like, is there is there a big following
(01:02:25):
within the LGBTQ community for basketball for NBA? I don't
know the answer. I'm literally asking, I don't know. Also,
and I understand it's Chicago, right, so and he and
you know, they don't need a reason to hold a
big protest on a moment's notice up there. But man,
(01:02:46):
if you want me to start going down a list
of stuff that NBA players have said and then you know,
suit it up for the game the next day, we
can do that. Sorry, I just saw a shocking story.
I mean, who could have predicted.
Speaker 5 (01:03:00):
That?
Speaker 1 (01:03:00):
A former business partner and Goop enthusiasts, all right, Gwyneth
Paltrow's weird company, Goop, where they sell like the jade
eggs and the stuff for kegel exercises, and even they
even have like a podcast. It's all so weird. It's
just really weird stuff. In fact, I was just thinking
(01:03:23):
of this like we were. I think we were making
fun of one of their podcasts. Let's see here, hang on,
hang on, hang on. I know it's got to be
in the system. I remember she, Oh, what was that's
the product? She also had a candle that how do
(01:03:43):
I even say this? All right? She had a candle
that was scented to smell like her own odor down
there and yeah, so so yeah, there there there. It's
a lot of weirdness. She had an exorcism.
Speaker 4 (01:04:05):
Oh wow, I went through years of therapy in about
five hours.
Speaker 1 (01:04:11):
I started to feel like a panic attack coming on.
She knew something that my husband didn't even know. You
want to puff about the bulls? So they have like
their old entertainment apparatus too, I forgot you've never seen yourselves? No,
why their own reality show. I'm not gonna I'm not
gonna like torture you or with the rest of it.
(01:04:33):
Although the Goop Fellas podcast was done is Goop Fellas?
Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
Yeah, welcome, welcome, welcome to the podcast. Will How are
you this morning? I am doing so good.
Speaker 1 (01:04:44):
It's an awesome day to be alive, isn't it?
Speaker 12 (01:04:47):
Every day is?
Speaker 1 (01:04:48):
That's well, not every day.
Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
Sometimes some days suck, but some days suck. But today's
a good day, that's right.
Speaker 1 (01:04:53):
What did you have for breakfast today?
Speaker 2 (01:04:55):
I fasted myself, so you know me super compelling.
Speaker 1 (01:05:01):
Roz. If we ever start sounding like that, I need
you to put us out of our misery. Okay, if that,
if that's the show ever turns into a parody of
the parody from SNL with the shweaties thing, I just
we just need to be done with it. So all
this to say, you're dealing with a bunch of weirdos.
(01:05:21):
So imagine my surprise when we find out that one
of her goop palals I don't I don't even know
what you'd call him, has just been convicted of running
a sex cult. Because, of course, glamorous leader of o cult.
I'm not going to use the full O word, but
(01:05:43):
you know the word, and if you don't, well that's
on you. By the way, the name of it is
called one Taste Do Without what you will learns fate
for grooming employees to have sex with clients.
Speaker 5 (01:05:59):
What is this?
Speaker 1 (01:06:00):
What is this woman's name? Nicole Daydone daydon I don't know,
was hit with a nine year prison sentence on Monday
for coerciing employees into various acts. As judge slander over
the egregious insidious scheme. I mean, can you believe that
(01:06:21):
the chick who is trying was, you know, formally trying
to sell you five hundred dollars piece of stone, so
you can put it somewhere that she might be running
a sex calt. I for one, could never have seen this.
If you want to know more, you should read it.
There's a lot of this story I can't really get into,
but it's pretty heineous stuff. Actually, she got a whole
(01:06:45):
team of strong, empowered women around her though, that were
trying to defend her. Yeah, she was facing twenty years
didont has maintained a loyal following despite her June conviction,
So they just had the sentencing, which she is expected
to appeal. More than two hundred people submitted letters to
(01:07:07):
the court before sentencing, including Van Jones, a CNN correspondent
and former advisor to President Obama, who called her a
woman of uncommon wisdom, grace, and moral courage. Man, I
wonder if she has something on these two hundred people.
I mean, she is running a sex cult after all.
(01:07:29):
Her lawyer argued that none of the accusers describing victims
of physical violence, and that her client was charged of
convicted only of forced labor conspiracy and not technically sex
trafficking or sexual assault, which is true, but they attached
the underlying part and it does mention the sexual parts.
(01:07:49):
So but yeah, there are still many people who see
her as a transformative force, more than two dozen members
of One Taste, which has been rebranded as the Institute
of m oh does that stand for O Manage I
swear man? This is why people think you're all running
(01:08:09):
around like just have a weird like demonic cult sex stuff.
This is why people this is why people will openly
speculate about that, because you're all so weird like organizationally,
you're not just a freak on your own, which is fine,
go ahead and do your thing. You had to, like
you had to make a business out of it. Uh
(01:08:33):
see here, Well that's about That's about all I can
get into. If you want some of the specifics what
she's accused of doing and what they were doing on
her behalf, you're gonna have to go read that. Uh
go read that on your own, all right. So apparently
they're mad at kid Rock again. I don't I don't
know what what What did you want Kid Rock to do?
(01:08:53):
Or you just want to hate on Kid Rock? Why
are they mad at kid Rock? Because of this insane
moment right here, best Kid Rock standing on his replica
White House pol Deck and two Apache helicopters are are
like just hovering there, and so they're they're videoing that
(01:09:20):
and that that is what all right, so shut up, hush,
that is what people are upset about. The military says
they are investigating to figure out how that may have happened,
even though they initially pointed out that the uh they
were on. You know, this is the thing that people
don't attempt to understand. We could argue, I don't know
(01:09:40):
what's going on here yet, but I'll give you the
example that most people get mad about, and it usually
comes down to whoever the president is, and that's military
flybys or flyovers right for sporting events. For some reason,
people get really mad. They'll be like, oh, I can't
I can't believe it. I can't believe that there's milit
terry flyovers happening. What a waste of all the money.
(01:10:03):
You need to understand, those pilots need to log hours,
like there's a training aspect to what they're doing there.
So when you see that, it's not just that they're
flying over a stadium, they're meeting requirements for their pilots.
So that that's one thing too. How many of you
have been in the mountains of North Carolina and her
and and her jets. Have you been up there and
(01:10:26):
heard the jets when guys coming off Cherry Point and
they go up to do the terrain training up there
in the mountains, they do that so that they are trained. Man,
that's a thing. And it just so happens. They tend
to zip by in my backswing, which I appreciate, but
that's the thing. And then of course, you know, if
you're down at topsail and you see the ospreys, they're
not just flying around for something to do. All of
(01:10:49):
this matters. So I don't know the conditions around what
is going on with these helicopters. But as a from
a pure guy perspective, who not a terrorist, right, because
your experience will vary. Ross wouldn't you love to have
two black Hawks show Apaches show up at the UH
at the house later today, just hovering there. That would
(01:11:12):
be awesome. Man. Again, unless you're a terrorist, then the
last thing you want is to Apache showing up at
your door. But if they just want to come by
and wave or whatever, and and and I will say this,
I so this is my theory. Whether these guys did
or didn't know that that's where Kid Rock lives. He
lives in a replica of the White House. That's something
(01:11:38):
that's gonna catch your eye, do you know what I'm saying. So,
I don't know, maybe there's a cruising by the one
guy goes, what is is this? A somebody has a
replica of the White House? You gonna go look at
that and then maybe or maybe they did know it
was Kid Rock, But I don't think they just grabbed,
you know, stole the keys off mom's dresser and took
the uh the apaches out for a spin. That's saw
(01:12:00):
how that works. So again, everyone can lose their minds
and play politics on it. But like, I don't know
that anyone did anything wrong yet, and also even if
they even if they did, I don't know that you'll
necessarily hear about it. But they will. I'm sure they're
(01:12:20):
having very I'm sure they're having a very interesting conversation
with whoever their CEO is. Both yesterday and today would
be my best guess here. All right, So we have
an update to a story that we start I keep
getting off this microphone. Here we have an update to
a story we did yesterday where you have a Secret
Service agent who reportedly was on Jill Biden's protection and
(01:12:47):
accidentally shot themselves in the leg is what it was reported.
Turns out that's not the story. That's one that's not
even where the wound is. So here's the here's what
actually happened. The agent had left his phone in the
suv that they had used to transport Biden into the airport.
(01:13:08):
So he says, hey, I'm gonna keep moving, I'm gonna
go get my phone, goes back to the suv, is
have a trouble finding it, so he needs a flashlight. Well,
he can't use his phone, which most everybody would, right,
We used the flashlights on the phone because that's the
thing he's looking for. But he has another flashlight and
it happens to be mounted to his glock. So he
(01:13:30):
did the thing you're not really supposed to do but
and instead used his glocks flashlight to try to find
it in the trunk of the suv. Then, while in
one motion, flipped it around and attempted to reholster it,
and he holsters it in the back, holsters it in
(01:13:53):
the back, and I don't know if he got his
finger in the trigger guard there or what happened. But
he ended he shot himself with the but he forrest
gumped himself himself. That's what happened, right in the right
butt cheek, according to the updated reporting here. Uh now,
(01:14:13):
if the trainee to train people, you would stress with
the light on the glocksa only be used while shooting.
Have I seen somebody use a mounted flashlight on a weapon,
in this case a shotgun for other things, not pointing
at people, but for more traditional flashlight duties. Sure, but
(01:14:33):
you shouldn't do it. And also it allows stories like
this allow idiots who don't know anything about guns to comment,
like Gabby who writes most people that carry do so
with the firearm chambered. That's a big no no because
most semi automatic handguns have hair triggers. He's very lucky
no one else was injured. H bless bless your heart.
(01:14:58):
Oh wait, hold on, so wants to correct me on
the Okay, wait are you saying they're not apaches their
cod Well, I'll take what it do. Military helicopter wants
to roll up, but it's not there to murder me.
I'll look at it. Yeah, I know. I think they
knew where he lived too, I'm just saying that we
(01:15:18):
don't know. We don't know, all right, So in a
little debate there, I don't know what the answer to
it is. But since around the military front, let me
hit you with another story because apparently a stripper in
San Diego, San Diego says that US troops are apparently
leaky news of their deployments to her, you know, while
(01:15:42):
she jiggles or whatever her talent is. Here charm Days,
who's not at all doing this for publicity? As nine
or one thousand followers online, Man, we're just everybody's a
PERF shared an emotional video last Sunday describing a wave
of depressed servicemen from nearby military bases, lamenting a deployment
(01:16:03):
scheduled for next week. So you're telling me, I'm assuming
you're talking about Cornado and Marines and whatnot and some
of the naval personnel there, I'm and they're threatening operational
security because they want you to like them. She don't
charge as much for a lap dance. I guess I
could kind of believe that. I'm sure they got to
beat it into your head, because I don't know if
(01:16:23):
I've ever seen a military town that didn't have a
strip club in it, not to be sharing info with
the strippers, right, But also I don't know if I
believe her because she's got like woke activist stuff too
on her social so I'm sure it's a little bit
of both. Something I've noticed lately is all the military
(01:16:44):
guys are coming in and they're spending all of their money.
They they're kind of depressed. They're like, oh, yeah, we're
gonna have fun, but you can tell something's off and
they're like, we deploy next week. So she's making a
very specific claim. And who knows. There's a Pentagon Epic
Fury briefing that is being pushed as breaking news this morning.
I have yet to see what exactly is all in
(01:17:07):
it because it literally would be starting, I think in
ten minutes or something. So we'll, i mean, we'll follow that.
Maybe she's right, I don't know, but I'm gonna I'll
keep some of the powder drying this because ill we'll
see Days performs in clubs all around the country. But
it's based in San Diego, Okay. Well, it's the largest
(01:17:28):
naval base on the West Coast. There good spot, As
is custom with military towns, there are plenty of strip joints.
I just said that, Thank you New York Post. Did
she just said she was she specific? Was it the
Marines or the navy folks, and you got you know,
because you got Pendleton, you got Cornado there, you got
(01:17:49):
way NIMI if you go up the coast there. Ummm yeah,
all right, so a very specific claim. They deployed next week.
Now in what capacity like if you're talking Navy and
Marine Expeditionary Unit, Yeah, but you're not you know, does
that mean boots on the ground. Not necessarily, but who knows.
Maybe something at the PENTAGRAMD briefing will give us more
(01:18:11):
insight and then we can all have that argument, which
I think that that'll that'll be the one where there's
going to be some argument right there. But yeah, this
is not and again I don't know that that's anything
new too. We already know that we have a navy
we have okay, oh they were apaches, all right. See,
(01:18:35):
I got a whole I got a whole fact check
crew just working in the working in the background. Yeah.
I still want them to show up as long as
they're not mad at me. But you know, the deployment
for people in in a in a naval situation like that,
whether they're actually navy personnel or in this case also
marine expeditionary units. That's already that already, we already have
(01:18:57):
that deployed. So this sounds a little bit like a
nothing burger and a chance for her to promote her OnlyFans.
But again, perhaps we'll figure something out for the upcoming meeting.
All right, we got let's see, yeah, I'll be able
to fit this. So we got to play some audio
I played earlier. It's just so good. It's coming up
in just a few hang on, Oh, welcome back, everybody
(01:19:20):
at is eight thirty five. Are you feeling a little
sluggish this morning? You do something dumb yesterday? You're like, man,
I gotta hope nobody saw that. I want you to
fear not because I want to make you feel a
lot better about yourself with just a quick little street interview.
And again, you know how these things go said, people
(01:19:41):
go out and they're looking for humorous reactions, they're looking
for gotcha stuff, and cause you never really know how
many people they talked to before they got the reaction
that they want. But with the question that you're going
to hear this guy asking which is it's a joke.
He's like he's paraphrasing a joke, but quite successfully he's
(01:20:04):
able to get some folks on the hook, including this
one lady who knows she knows the bud buzzwords, she
doesn't know what order to put them in necessarily, and
she will. She will also, as part of this, try
to shame others who disagree with her by saying that
they need to be educated, which is super ironic when
you hear what she has to say. But this guy
(01:20:26):
simply asked with, you know, basically, well, actually here, I'll
let him say it and then i'll uh, I'm gonna
pause it because he's got a bit of an accent,
and it's it's so important. I want you to understand
the question. All right, all right, here.
Speaker 3 (01:20:40):
We gohob that was so focused on the straits of
hermus and.
Speaker 1 (01:20:45):
Not the gase of I okay, just the question again,
the question is it homophobic that we're focused on the
straits of Hormuz and not the gaze of horbooze? I'm sure,
I'm sure fifty people right told this guy to get
(01:21:05):
away from him. But this this, this not this woman.
She has to kick into whatever the mode is where
you have to divorce yourself of reason, trying to understand
context or nuance and just make sure you say all
the right words so that you feel virtuous. She's going
to go right into that mode while demanding that people
(01:21:27):
educate themselves. So and she, you know, she looks like
she's a she's not a homeless crazy person, which might
be a crazy person, but she's not homeless, right. She
seems to be a functioning to some extent member of society.
Somehow she is able to groom herself and clothe herself.
And she sounds like she, you know, had some schooling
at the very least, maybe she didn't pay attention. And
(01:21:49):
she lurks amongst us because she is all in on
this and uh here it is.
Speaker 3 (01:21:54):
A little bit homophobics that was so focused on the
straits of hermus and nots the case of him.
Speaker 4 (01:22:00):
I agree, yes for sure.
Speaker 3 (01:22:02):
Yeah, why do you think something to leave the gays
of homos behind?
Speaker 5 (01:22:07):
I think it's just history Historically, like you know, gays
have always been very discriminated against, which is wrong on
so many levels.
Speaker 4 (01:22:16):
Yeah, even in warrand it just takes I think more,
what is it like more?
Speaker 5 (01:22:23):
Reform in government obviously, and then also educating society.
Speaker 1 (01:22:28):
Is it gas of us? We could turn it into
Faia Island for.
Speaker 3 (01:22:31):
Sure, praise and gays of hamus freeze the gays of homos.
Speaker 1 (01:22:38):
I mean, just a little more educational and more like,
she doesn't government reform and education? What does that mean?
What does that mean? It doesn't mean anything. That means
that you just you heard somebody answer a similar question
one time, and you've you've gleaned that the the phrasing there,
(01:22:59):
and and you're just all right, now it's the time
to regurgitate this, never pausing to think about what you
were asked too, what words are actually coming out of
your mouth. It's actually pretty impressive, all right. I don't
know if you guys saw this. I will tell you
I did fall down a little bit of a rabbit
hole yesterday. So the New York Times decided they were
(01:23:21):
gonna do yet another takedown piece over the Trump Ballroom.
And what had people laughing is the infographic. It's kind
of like remember USA today with the chainsaw bayonet, and
then everyone started making their own. It's exactly that. So
the New York Times put out a story It's called
Trump's ballroom design has barely been scrutinized. Architects say, it shows,
(01:23:47):
so what do you got, you have, you have a
little info, you know, a little cartoon of it. And
then they just made like hand notes on different parts
of it, like on the roof, unnecessarily big columns. Now,
the columns that are out in the front, Remember the
columns face the road. That's going to be important in
just a moment. Columns will block interior ballroom view. Then
(01:24:10):
they just wrote, very tall grand staircase doesn't lead the ballroom,
no entrance here. Entrance is actually over here. Design bumps
existing paths, ruin symmetry. And then they just they threw
it in there, and immediately people started mocking it for
a number of reasons, one of not the least of
(01:24:31):
which is the columns are intentionally put there and are
are there? Are that many of them because it's the
part of the ballroom that faces the road. You understand
when I'm getting out here, those columns are not just
a visual thing. They are super reinforced so that you
(01:24:54):
can't try to drive a vehicle into the big building
where all the dignitaries are. That's an intentional decision and
not having an entrance where it faces the road, there
is a security choice it. You still have the ability
to have wonderful photo ops up there, which is what
they're planning on doing their staging area up there. But
(01:25:16):
yet by not having it be the egress the in
and out, you can't you couldn't set up and sniper
right into that. Also again, you just the less entrances,
the ways in and out that you have, the more
secure you're able to make it. But then people started
getting just funny with it. My favorite is somebody put
(01:25:38):
a picture of the Pantheon in Rome and they wrote,
like of the top where you have the latter they're
like gibberish words, roundy pointless triangles And these just go
on for days, these replies, and it did bring a lot.
They bring a lot of humor. Man, somebody just put
baron Trump next to where they wrote too tall, and
(01:25:59):
that made me laugh as well. And then of course
they were doing it to the new Obama Library as well.
But hey, oh, and then somebody also installed the BUCkies
on top of it, because why not? Oh ross, I
guess so, yes, I'm not going to say who it was.
So yesterday I was in a I was about about
(01:26:22):
a seven or eight person group talking about stuff. Some
summer coworkers, some are not. And so the BUCkies was
broached right because they were asking, like, oh, we do
you where do you like to stop when you're driving
between Greensboro and Raleigh, especially if the sheets is too full?
(01:26:42):
And I said, well, if they get the BUCkies open
next next year, probably I'll be stopping there. I don't know, man.
And one of the women is like, she said, I
don't want to hear about BUCkies anymore. All you guys
want to do is talk about BUCkies. Watch house special
about BUCkies. I've never seen BUCkies make somebody angry man,
or or like is that just? Is that?
Speaker 5 (01:27:02):
Just?
Speaker 13 (01:27:02):
Is it just?
Speaker 1 (01:27:03):
BUCkies is a guy thing, and and we're boring the
women around us by talking about it. I assume women
like BUCkies because it has clean bathrooms, which is kind
of what BUCkies was going for. But apparently now you
can get married at BUCkies. Yep, that's the thing that happened.
A couple has tied the knot at BUCkies. They're actually
(01:27:25):
from Illinois, but they travel a lot, really enjoyed it,
so they decided to pick their favorite BUCkies, which is
apparently the one that's opened the great smoking up in
Smoky mountains there. What's the actual town it's in You
do do do do do do? I doesn't say, but anyway,
(01:27:47):
so they just see have Kodak Tennessee. That's where it is. Okay,
So that's right off I forty I'm sure many of
you have driven by it. If you've driven over in
that direction, that's where they decided to go get to
get married. And you know what makes a lot of sense,
makes a lot of sense. You got a beef turkey bar,
so you're you know, it's catered. You got clean bathrooms
for your guests. They sell boot you know, they sell
(01:28:09):
beer and wine there or booze, depending on which state
you're in. You know, he's gonna run out of gas.
Got all that for you and lo and behold. They
were able to get permission to go ahead and do it,
and they said that they're very, very happy. So add
that thing to the list unless you're somebody who's annoyed
by the discussion of BUCkies. And I'm sorry you had
to hear about it again, Okay, Okay. Eight forty four
(01:28:31):
raced Agic for the weather channel is here too. The
weather I's you or whatever whatever that term.
Speaker 12 (01:28:38):
Is, just so that's not a men's only thing. My
wife and my daughters love BUCkies. Well, yeah, I just
and she wasn't mad. I'm just like, I've never seen
anyone recoil on the BUCkies. It's a little intimidating, especially
for the first time a little bit.
Speaker 1 (01:28:57):
I don't know, man, I seem to do okay there.
I was like, I tell you, I could duck the
water going in there. I'm like, this is amazing. If
you can do it over and have your marriage at BUCkies.
Speaker 13 (01:29:09):
Huh yeah, I mean listen, probably a lot, right, I'm
just saying there anyway, So nah, well.
Speaker 12 (01:29:21):
Warm weather mainly dry, there's kind of like a cutoff,
and it's hard to let's just say, we know it's
that time of year. Now, we're using more springtime language,
maybe a little bit early, but widely scattered to isolated showers,
thundershowers from about and I say about because the model's
never going to be exact. The tryad west so Greensboro, Winston,
(01:29:42):
sailing back toward Ashville and Hickory, maybe even Charlotte. I
think most of the triangles starting Tomorrow Thursday Friday, gonna
miss most of the rain showers, but I wouldn't be
surprised if you see a passing shower or a thundershower.
The best chance would be tomorrow. So it really depends
on where you are, and even if you do get rain,
the chances aren't great and it won't last long. So
(01:30:03):
sunshine underan that and clouds obviously with the rain thread
and low to mid eighties next several days right on
through the week. I really think by Sunday there's a
better chance for everybody to get some scattered showers and thunderstorms.
That's our front coming in a cold front. We'll still
have highs on Easter Sunday around eighty degrees or just above,
and then it'll cool off back into the sixties by Monday.
Speaker 1 (01:30:23):
So today I think everybody's.
Speaker 12 (01:30:24):
Dry, sunshine, a few clouds near eighty, and then we'll
start Tomorrow, Thursday, Friday, those three days. Wednesday really tomorrow
the best chance of some showers thundershowers, but will still
stay in the little mid eighties. So the good news,
no severe weather expected. The bad news, I'm trying to
kind of pinpoint it exactly it's not one of those
(01:30:45):
you know, I can't say that. You know, if you're
in Raleigh, you don't get a shower, and if you're
in Greensboro or Winston Sale, it's just one of those
things kind of aggravated. Wherever I'm at, that's where the
rain's going to be, That's where it's going to rain.
Speaker 1 (01:30:57):
So lo jack me. Okay, thank you, sir, appreciate it.
We'll come back with Bloomberg News next. Hang on eight
fifty two. You're Bloomberg Update now at Denise Pellegrini. What's
happened in Denise. Hey, well, we're.
Speaker 9 (01:31:10):
Keeping an eye on what's happening with Meta Casey. It's
begun testing this paid subscription service for Instagram stories called
Instagram Plus. It allows stories to remain visible longer than
twenty four hours when you post them, those video clips,
and the ability to view the stories on stealth without
others knowing that you're kind of looking at what they've
(01:31:33):
got posted on Instagram. But you'll have to pay a
fee for that. Price cuts Meantime, in the weight loss business,
starting today, Noville Notice launching a subscription program with lower
monthly prices on its Regovy pill and shop for patients
who pay in cash. You can sign up for a three, six,
or twelve month subscription through row Weight Watchers or Life MD.
(01:31:54):
If you sign up for a twelve month subscription, you'll
pay about two hundred and fifty bucks a month for
the Regovy pen and that undercuts Lily's lowest monthly price
for zepbound by about fifty bucks a month. Just about
forty percent of patients on the shots pay for those
prescriptions in cash, so this will be huge for a.
Speaker 2 (01:32:12):
Lot of people.
Speaker 9 (01:32:14):
I don't know if you've heard of the Lbean Japan collection,
this sounds really interesting. In the eighties and nineties, okay,
Ellbean became hugely popular among Japanese tourists to the US
who had flocked to that store in Maine and you know,
buy as much as they could, stuff it into their suitcases,
take it back to Tokyo. And as a result, Japan
(01:32:37):
also became the source of a lot of mail order
business for LLB and the products became very popular in Japan. Well, now,
the products that are so popular in Japan, they are
launching here in the US, the Lbean Japan Collection, the
twenty twenty six collection. This is coat's oversized box CT's
(01:33:00):
dresses with a boxy oversized fit. Basically think nineteen eighties, right.
All this retro stuff is now the Lbean Collection and
it's already selling out on LLBAN online.
Speaker 1 (01:33:12):
I think they just put this stuff up today.
Speaker 9 (01:33:15):
The NFL is in to deal with Tiger Woods Firm
for Flag Football Leagues TMRW. That's Tiger Woods Company TMRW
Sports to create professional men's and women's flag football leagues
that'll invest thirty two million dollars through its venture capital fund.
As part of the agreement. The sport will market's first
appearance in the Olympics at the twenty twenty eight games
(01:33:36):
in Los Angeles. Stop futures are looking way better today
than they were yesterday. Dow futures up five hundred and
nineteen points as investors hope for an end to the
war and Iran. Some kind of deal between the US
and Iran they hope is in the works. Crude oil
future is pretty muted today, almost flat. SNP futures up
seventy three, Nasdaq futures surging two hundred and sixty six points,
(01:33:58):
and casey, there's this huge scam that's going global that
people need to be warned about. You know, all those
scams you get when you get the phone call saying
a child or a parent or somebody who you know
care about has been arrested and you have to pay money. Well, now, scammers,
they're using WhatsApp, and they're contacting scammys using video, and
(01:34:20):
they're actually staging events with paid actors to convince you
this scam is true. I mean Hollywood level staging. According
to The Wall Street Journal, which says people are getting
these calls showing a whole team of police in the station.
One of the cops tells the scammy they're under arrest on,
you know, suspicion of money laundering or something like that.
(01:34:42):
This one woman says she even attended what she thought
was an actual virtual hearing before a Supreme Court judge
in what appeared to be as book lined chamber. She
was I guess they scammed, you know, Almost two million
dollars from her stage sets modeled after the FB Royal,
Canadian Mounted Police and law enforcement agencies in the UK
(01:35:04):
and Australia have been found inside these scams centers in Asia.
The report says one thing though, the scammers are having
trouble finding native English speaking actors to play some of
these roles.
Speaker 1 (01:35:17):
So well.
Speaker 9 (01:35:18):
The scams are huge in Asia right now. They're just
starting to spread in the US, but they are happening
all over the US and in Canada as well.
Speaker 1 (01:35:27):
Okay, yeah, I mean there's a lot of stupid people.
Speaker 9 (01:35:30):
And do not believe what you see or hear unless
Casey tells you no.
Speaker 1 (01:35:35):
Even then, I tell people that I'm like, listen, if
you hear something and it winds you up on this show,
I want you to go check me on it, like,
because it's everything else is just AI slop at this point.
All Right, thank you very much, Denise appreciated. Denise peligreen
