Speaker 1 (00:00):
Glad to have you a long do do do do?

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Do do do?

Speaker 1 (00:04):
I mean it's only Tuesday, but hey, we'll uh well,
we'll go ahead and do this thing, all right, coming
up on the show. I know you're going to be
shocked to learn that even after meeting the actual specific
and very unambiguous standards that were laid out in that

(00:24):
Supreme Court decision or Supreme yeah, I guess Supreme Court
decision directive, whatever you want to call it as it
pertained to the Maryland man, right, which was what very specific.
We aren't contesting that he has final orders for deportation.
We're only saying that you can't send him de al Salvador,

(00:46):
all right. And they told him, they told everyone, They're like, look,
if he comes back, we're just going to send him
somewhere else. And they're like, but that's what you got
to do, because it's it's not about it's about making
things as cumbersome as possible. Never mind that quite frankly,
they had to know that at least in El Salvador,

(01:07):
he probably there was probably people that he knew there,
which is a little more helpful when you're serving in
prison time there. I suspect so now, as we mentioned
on the show yesterday, like all right, well how about Uganda?
And now of course she gets some demopointed judge it's like, no, no,

(01:28):
we're gonna you can't deport him. I don't know how
she has standing to do that. It's not even like
there's ambiguity, ambiguity of aim. Well, I can't say that word.
It's not even though it's ambiguous. Right, they saw it
and received this Supreme Court directive. The Trump administration has

(01:49):
clearly met the requirements as long as they're not sending
him to El Salvador. And I think there's a couple
other countries too, but Uganda's not one of them. And
she's like, now he gets to stay. Not only does
he get to stay, they decided to go have a
protest on his behalf yesterday. And you're gonna be very

(02:12):
happy to learn that they're at it again. Although they
have brought back up this time. They have they have,
they have brought back up you can trump no kill? Yeah,

(02:38):
all right, And I don't know if you I don't
know if you picked up on who's leading that little
sing along there of the latest American uh El Salvadorian
folk hero. Uh, that's Kenny Loggins, man, who's trying to
ruin Caddyshack for me? Stop it? Yeah, so they got
Kenny Loggins out there and it's sucks. How does that work? Like,

(03:04):
here's here's the thing, Ross, correct me if I'm wrong.
If you're the Democrats, you basically have ninety five percent
of the music industry captured. Right, I don't know, maybe
maybe ninety five has a bit aggressive. What do you
get into the countryside? But most most of the highest
profile singers right now are probably leftists, right I think so,

(03:24):
I think that's probably fair. I know, I'm you know,
speculating here. Your sing along should never suck. They should
be amazing. Anytime you're gonna have a singing protest, it
should like you're gonna be held to a higher bar
because of all the available talent out there. And I

(03:47):
don't just mean you know some of today's mumbley you
know younger gen Z singers who destroyed al Rock, which
is not a thing really anymore. And that's a shame.
Like most of the Logins era are your peeps. They
got some good voices. Get him out there, because I'm

(04:09):
I have to cover this crap. And I would I
would prefer it not be the worst thing ever. Stick
a Tina Turner on that what's her Miam? What's the
chick for Miami? Sald machine? Gloria asked step On, kill
it versus whatever that is? So this is just I'm sorry,

(04:35):
this is just embarrassing. Come on, well, if you live
in Ghana, he's gonna be your neighbor. So you have
maybe Kenny Loggins has uh he's got a a summer

(04:56):
house over then.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
I can't believe that's Kenny Loggins.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Yeah, man, that's what That's what was so embarrassing because
I saw it like Kenny Logan should have and I
see him standing there and I'm like, oh, this one
might be good. It's not good.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Did his head hit the canopy of like the the
tom Kat of the F fourteen when he was ejecting out?
Like what happened to him? I got brain damage or something?

Speaker 4 (05:17):
Why?

Speaker 2 (05:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Why is he doing this to our movies? Stop it? Yeah?
Well what happens? Man? And do you have a pilot
who ejected literally on the runway the other day up
in the Massachusetts Air National Guard? Because of course, so yeah,
I know things happen, but it's inexcusable. You're gonna be

(05:38):
held to a higher standard here on this show because
of the available talent, because you're not bringing your best,
and when you do bring arguably among your best, I
love me some Kenny Loggins songs, it's bad, unacceptable. So

(06:00):
so we got that that's going to be the big
fight over the week. Everyone's wanted to stab each other's
eyes out over this flag burning thing yesterday. I think
some people are misunderstanding what it is. But I still
think that people are in this weird place where when
you point out that there is a Supreme Court decision
within our lifetime, within most people's lifetime, I shouldn't say most,

(06:24):
because then I'll just be made to feel old when
people are like I was born in nineteen ninety. But yeah,
within a lot of people's lifetime, everyone loses their crap.

Speaker 3 (06:34):
Man.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
You know, we'll slice and die it, I guess, because
that's what we do here on the show. Because we
can't listen to Kenny Loggins's new album because it's terrible. No, no,

(06:58):
he said what he said.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yeah, the last I heard from Kenny Loggins. He's actually
one of the DJs in GTA five is that is.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
That for real?

Speaker 3 (07:07):
Yeah, there's a classic there's like a classic rock station
and he's the DJ.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
See that's cool man, Yeah yeah yeah, So how do
you how do you phone it in with whatever that
was yesterday? Put some production value on this. Get some synth.
I can't listen to Kenny Loggins with no synth? Right,
what do we do? What are we doing? Totally unacceptable?

(07:36):
How much how much Kenny Loggins we even have in
the system so I can yeah, look at look at
all this. I'm just called up his library. This is
just in our system.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
Are you sure it's like the Kenny Loggins or is
it like an office space Michael Bolton thing, No, that's.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Him, so uh so, well Kenny Loggins is uh not
all right? I oh dude, I could just do Kenny
Logins song puns all morning with whatever this is. I mean,
say what you want about Kenny Loggins, if if you're younger,

(08:18):
which Kenny Loggins was on a god tear rip for
a while, I.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Mean no, he was in the zone for a long time.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
I foot loose, I'm all right, danger zone representing the
soundtracks to three of the biggest I mean he was
the soundtrack guy.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
My favorite part of Danger Zone besides the entire song,
because it's amazing. Yeah, he is at the end when
the song is fading out, his voice does this thing
where it's like and like it goes up and I
can't do it. I can't do it. But you can't
either either, you know the part I'm talking about, Like
his voice does this up and down thing. Oh, it's incredible.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
Yeah, you got the logins of Messina Library and anyway,
all right, I'm just very disappointed. But also I think
it's very lazy. So while that's going on in Washington,
up in Minneapolis, is there the DNC's annual meeting. And

(09:16):
we just talked about on the show literally yesterday, because
it happened Friday and I saw I didn't get to
it Friday, but I don't even know if I saw
it before the show was over. But this, this, this
this liberal think tank was like, hey, maybe you should
stop using all these words and forcing other people to

(09:37):
use these words that are just drawing higher anger and
turning off moderates and maybe that would be helpful, which,
by the way, is very good advice. I'm not taking
political I would say directives demands from somebody who's like, no,
it's she's a chess feeder. But do you no, No,

(10:02):
she's a mom feeding her baby. She's shut up, right
and then and then that's just one example of all
these words. But it's the it's the message. The message is,
y'all keep doing things. There are certain things that you
do that turn off the voters that we need, so
stop doing them. Not because you don't believe. This is

(10:25):
why it's a little disingenuous. Don't stop doing them because
you don't believe them. Right, Undocumented do you believe people
should be called undocumented travelers rather than illegal immigrants? And
that latinx is a good thing, even even though it's
according to people speak Spanish in the ninety ninth percentile,
it's dumb because Spanish is a gendered language. The ah

(10:48):
and the old matter. But the message is stop being insane.
So how do you think they choose to open their meeting? Hey,
thanks everybody for coming. I do hot if we got
cocktails later we're doing this thing coming up. Great speakers
line up, you know by their standards. They you know,

(11:10):
good to be here, right as you know how normal
people start that with a little welcome as he makes
it introductory welcome remarks, No, no, they can't help themselves.

Speaker 5 (11:21):
Is Lindy Somak, who is from the Sagan Ojibwe nation,
and she's going to deliver our land acknowledgment today.

Speaker 6 (11:28):
Lindy Buju, Lindy somic cause amicdotum uhba and shnabe quay
and dow uh Good morning DNC mom.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
By the way, I tried to run that through Grock
and Grock exploded, So I don't even know if that's
accurate because I don't speak Ojibwe. I do remember the Ojibweh.
They basically control all the casinos in Minnesota, and they
used to run a lot of advertising on our station,
and they they had a great comedy lineup too, if
they're one up Malacs. But AnyWho. All right, so here

(12:04):
we go with this. You know what's coming.

Speaker 7 (12:06):
First, friends and relatives, Let's talk about the land for
a second. The DNC acknowledges and honors the Dakota Yata,
the Dakota people who are the original stewards of the
lands and waters of Minneapolis. The Dakota cared for the
lands lakes in the Wakatanka, the Great River, the Mississippi
River for thousands of years before colonization, this land was

(12:29):
not cleaned or traded. It's a part of a history
of broken treaties and promises, and in many ways we
still live in a system built to suppress Indigenous people's
cultural and spiritual history.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Okay, all right, yeah, people are so tired of this crab.
All right?

Speaker 3 (12:46):
Who was there before the Dakota God.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
Well, it's funny. It's funny you should ask that, because actually,
when you get into some of the history of the
tribes are and I will tell you that I have
pretty extensive history because we used to we would partner
with a lot of the different tribal communities for the
Governor's Fishing Opener event, because you know, they would take
place up near like Red Lake where they have Red

(13:10):
Lake is basically you want to talk about what a
reservation is and isn't in the sense that you know,
there's reservations where you go, they got casinos or they
have something else going on, and it's very open and welcoming.
Red Lake is a very closed community up there. It's
way up there's not a lot of people live up there.
But if you get on the other half of Red Lake,

(13:32):
they can seize whatever property you have. I don't know
many outsiders that have gone in there. I'm just saying
that it's a thing. But also it shows you the
various different tribes which don't necessarily get along there in Minnesota.
And we're also part of tribes that moved into Minnesota

(13:52):
who had previously been in Michigan and displaced some of
the tribes that were then pushed towards the planes, which
eventually the Crow and the Sioux got into it, and
then that was a whole thing. And that's why there's
adjacent reservations there. Like I have some working knowledge on this.
And to answer your question, Uh, it's not necessary. They
weren't necessarily the original founders, especially of the Minneapolis area.

(14:15):
Cracker Barrel is apologized. I don't know if I'm gonna
use that word. I'll I'll share their statement with you.
It's I will say, it's better then it's a vocal minority.
Ignore them while we have our hipster thing in Manhattan,
or there are no Cracker barrels like it's it's it's
it's more in the right direction. And I want to
be clear too, I want Cracker Barrel to be successful

(14:39):
and I want people to want to go there, and
it's only for my own selfish breakfast needs. But that's fine.
A lot of people, a lot of people like the
cracker barrel. They're you know, moderately upset, but probably are
when backable and it's like, you just gotta he's got
to figure this out, man. So we'll see if that's

(15:00):
a step in the right direction. But we were documenting
some of the fun yesterday. So again after at the
end of last week where we we sat there and
we talked about or we saw it, we saw the
words get released. We talked about him yesterday.

Speaker 8 (15:18):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
The the overall point is ahead of this, uh this,
this DNC meeting that happened was you gotta you gotta,
you gotta make people less uncomfortable with all your your
woke stuff. Okay, if you want to retain people is
people of a general uh to things they don't agree
with and don't understand. But depending on how hard you're

(15:40):
pushing them, they're either willing to overlook them or they're like, no,
I'm sorry, this is this is a breaking point for
me and and the Democrats had too many breaking points,
but the messages stopped being weird and then you're like,
all right, let's open our meeting with a uh, with
a land acknowledgment. We'll never talk about really the entire

(16:03):
history of that particular area or any particular era, because
I mean, let's face it, the you know, the one
thing that that never really gets brought up but probably should,
is it's not like the Native American tribes that there,
that this was their spawn point. Okay, uh, the Americas

(16:26):
people don't believe that. And you go back, you go back,
you know, even further than the individual tribes, and the
name escapes me. But basically the peoples that from a
DNA standpoint, we know migrated from Asia. So if you
want to say their first, like that annoying person in
every YouTube video and every who's just gotta read first, right,

(16:51):
that's fine, you can say that, But by no means
can you sit there and and not realize that, like
every other part of the world, every other part of
history that they there was warring, there was land grabbing,
there was slavery. All of these things existed because people.

(17:12):
People are done recognizing that you can you can be
just fine and and respect and even think it's cool.
I think a lot of the Native American stuff is
extremely cool, especially when you get into a lot of
the Western tribes out there that I studied growing up,
I had friends that were part of you know, any
friends I had who were who were actual tribal members
of the Crow just because of where I grew up.

(17:36):
Hell what h I say. Two of my best friends
are but only one of them still married. Uh married
girls that were from from the Crow Reservation. And my
buddy Travis and his wife Nicole the Goals, one of
my favorite people. So like, there's the ability, but we're
not all going to pretend there's Also there's all the

(17:58):
things that permeated your Europe, in Africa and other parts
of the world, permeated the North American continent. They just
the problem. The problem was, and it's almost it's damn
near going back to that era about one hundred percent
when it's almost like a federal prosecution with that ninetieth percentile,

(18:19):
civilizations who had not yet mastered refining metal meeting civilizations
who had generally lost It was just too powerful a
thing to overcome. Also, you didn't have the concept of
the wheel or I think Ross point I can remember.
I mean, this is a segment this is the topic.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
It drives me nuts because this idea that like the
Native Americans are the indigenous people you know, didn't have
land disputes or believe in territory is absolute bs. It's crazy, Yeah,
it is. I was reading a thread recently where somebody
was talking about like the you know, the the Aztec
culture and empire and how the Spanish stole their land

(19:00):
and it's like, no, they came over their horizon and
their giant ships with their you know, excuse me. They
could they could forge metal and they had the wheel.
The Aztecs did not have the wheel. Now were they
really good at like farming and irrigation completely, yes.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
Yeah, and astronomy and you know when you get down
to the Mayans with the ability to do the calendar
in mathematics, like these are hallmarks of it. They were
just figured it out at a different pace.

Speaker 3 (19:24):
But it's nuts because every culture was originally there was
somebody else there, Like are you gonna give Are the
Germans going to give back their land to Rome? Like
what is gonna you.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
Know what I mean? Like, I mean they did sack
the hell out of Rome, they did, well, they should
give him back. So like that was the thing, and
also the internal stuff we've talked about on the show.
And I'm trying to remember which of the meso Americans,
but you know they had splintered off into different tribes. Well,
actually that movie Apocalypto is a very good example of this.

Speaker 3 (19:54):
Yeah, I know in that movie, like you know, you
have the two tribes and they're fighting the entire time.

Speaker 1 (19:58):
Those are Mayans. Those are Mayans murdering the hell out
of their minds. Yeah, there is a story and I
can't I think it's the Mayans, but I could be
it was one of the meso American tribes where they
uh they one of the one of the more dominant tribes,
but who was having trouble with this other tribe and
they were they were warring. They basically said, all right,

(20:19):
our son needs a wife, you know. And it's funny
because this is the crap you would see in Europe too,
just to show you how similar this concept was. You
need a wife, and then so you have I guess
you have a a hotty daughter or whatever. Let's bring
her over and she'll marry our son and we don't
have to murder each other. So you and your whole tribe,

(20:42):
come on up for the big wedding ceremony and all right,
and you know she's excited because you know how women
get for their big day ross right, She's probably like, Oh,
I'm getting married. It's gonna be amazing dressed. And so
they show up, they're like all right, they're like, where's
the ceremony there? Like, all right, up, just go right
up there at the top of the pyramid. I'm gonna
go and do it up there. And we murdered all
of you. That's the thing that happened.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
You don't remember at the end of that Apocalypto movie
that's a Mel Gibson movie too. At the end of
that movie, you know, they show like one of the
guy looking out and like there's a Spanish ships. So
while they were fighting each other, here comes Spain. And
it's not a matter of it's not cheating. If the
the very end of the movie, yeah, yeah, it's not cheating.
Very powerful, see if the other the other side is
more technologically advanced. Yeah, it's just the way it worked out,

(21:29):
I mean, And but it's not cheating, like you cheated
because you had the wheel and you would steal.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
I think, so what if modern moonbats want they wanted
them to. All right, you can only use sticks, all right,
We're to make this fair. I'm sorry, that just wasn't
that wasn't the world there? But yeah, Yeah, to sum
it up, like, people are tired of this crap. They're
tired of it. And we said yesterday going back to
this think tank, how you know we need to start
talking and you stop using these terms, right, I like

(21:56):
I said, I read three articles recently all about this topic,
and really sum set up by saying, hey, guys, we
should start speaking with human beings. Right, let's be honest.
Somebody just send me an email on this. Yeah. I
have watched all the episodes so far. I told Ross
about this. There's a series on Apple Plus called Chief
of War. It starts Jason Momoa and it documents the

(22:20):
warring between the tribes of the Hawaiian Islands. Right, they
would sail over to each other's island and just be like,
all right, we're gonna take this. Now, we're gonna take that.
And by the way, I will tell you this the
whole series, and there is not an option to put
it in English. The whole series is done in the
native Hawaiian language. So if you can get over that,

(22:43):
if you don't mind watching, you know, things with subtitles.
But the production value on it's amazing, and it's it's
from what I read a thing on this, it's fairly
accurate too. I mean, granted they have this internal story
in Momoa but where he went over to a different island,
but I'll save that for you. But all this stuff happened.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
You know.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
One of the ways that we ingratiated ourselves to the
extent that you can within the Hawaiian Islands is basically
pairing up with the winners, so to speak, and then
them making them the losers. But like that's that's a
whole thing too from outside influence standpoint. But all these
all these things exist, and all these things, by the way,

(23:26):
are fascinating little slices of history that you know, to
Ross's to Ross's point, if you if you're talking to
each other as adults and people who have a genuine
interest in this stuff, then you can acknowledge this stuff.
You you can understand. You can understand also the concepts

(23:48):
of cast out tribes. Most people don't Ross, you know
what the cast these cast out tribes are. I don't know,
so they these are whole splintered parts of a larger tribe,
uh or of larger tribes were basically, you know, they
used to excommunicate people. A lot of the tribes would
do that, and they did it to such an extent
that there were large swaths and portions that basically started

(24:10):
doing their own thing, then turned in to dominate some
of their former tribes or great really unique little subsets.
I'll give you an example of the Shoshone. They had
what we refer to as the sheep Eaters, which was
the tribes that lived up and around Yellowstone. Shoshoni is
down like wind River, and then there's some Shoshone over

(24:30):
in Utah as well in parts of Idaho, I believe.
But like this was a whole set other thing. But
now they figured out that it didn't just involve cast
off Shoshoni. It also had Assabone black Feet, and one
other tribe's name escapes me but who. Basically they made
like a megatron of tribes and like everyone was scared

(24:53):
of a man because it was all just like the
island of misfit toys and it's like little fastened stuff.
You're never gonna know unless you start reading this. And
by the way, it wasn't just sheep they were eating,
you ross, do you want to guess what else they
were happy to eat if they came across.

Speaker 3 (25:08):
One I mean, I mean, I don't want to say people,
but you.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Should have because that would have been the correct answer.

Speaker 3 (25:16):
You know, And you throw out these points about the difference,
the huge disparity and the difference in technology between these
two cultures when they first met, Like when the Europeans
came over to the Americas, it was the equivalent of
if like a space spaceship were to arrive today over DC.
It was that sort of difference right where it's like,
you know, you have a spaceship over DC and they

(25:37):
got force fields and clothing and laser beams or whatever
else that you can imagine that the spaceship would have, Like,
we would stand no chance right against these people. It
was the same sort of thing, the exact same thing.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
So then a thousand years from now, when we're on
another planet as a subspecies, could we then make demands
of our space overlords.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
I mean we probably would, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
About the shoe on the other foot or the moccasin
six forty six hang on another thing you should be
paying attention to, dude. And I don't know, man, Like
I want to use the word trigger. This crab triggered
bet too. And you might have seen this video. There's
video of this girl. She's like fifteen, she lives in Scotland.

(26:24):
She they there's a term they use over there, basically
to imply that she's she's kind of lower middle class
because you know, part of you know, UK still has
a lot of how you know, with the cast I
mean there's are there still is a cast system in

(26:45):
the UK, as much as they don't think there is,
there is, there's cast systems, a little bit of cast
systems everywhere. But it's really interesting when people go full
maask off on this stuff because I'm like, why are they?
What does it matter? Here's the story. So there's a
video that emerged of one of the cultural enrichers in

(27:06):
the UK there who's basically filming this girl, so it
opens web. The reason he's filming is she is brandishing
a small hatchet and a knife it is not a
small knife, and basically telling this guy to leave him alone,
leave him alone. Why he started filming I don't know,
but it's turned into a little, he said, She said,

(27:29):
she clearly looks fearful. I don't know fully what transpire before.
I have a hard time believing she just found this
dude reading a book and started threatening him with a hatchet.
But details are a little sparse on some of that.
But what I do know is this is a grown male.
There's a grown adult male who continues to move towards
these girls because she has her friend with her and

(27:53):
so and she's like, get away, get away, get away,
and she's brandishing these two edged weapons, which you know
in the UK it is a big no no, especially
if it's like a sharpened spoon, God forbid. And that's
the video, and so what do Scottish authorities do. They
arrest the girl and they figure out after the incident

(28:14):
who she is. They go arrest her and people lost
their crap by the way, they've dubbed her Wilma Wallace.
See what they did there, And she's turned into a meme.
And it's crazy the reaction, man, because when you look
at it, you want to even have kids, and I
want to inherently step in, like it's really it's really

(28:38):
hard to watch. And then I asked myself, what happened
to the men of Scotland. What happened you know? Based
on the reference there with the Wilma wall Where are
the William wallaces. I don't mean to get all medieval
on you, but what is going on? And I guess
they're starting to emerge? But how the hell does it

(29:00):
get here? You arrested a fifteen year old girl who
looks like she's scared and is clearly trying to move
away from this dude who continues to pursue them, And
even if you thought the girl was in the wrong,
you flipped her video out. Whatever. This is how an
adult handles this so that there are no questions if
you think she did something wrong, which I haven't heard

(29:21):
that that's the case except from authorities who were just
mad she had the weapons. Film it so you have
the picture and then when they when they get away,
when they walk away from you, you will either stand
there and let them walk away or you walk in
the other direction.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
You know, Scotland is I mean obviously part of the UK, right,
So was she not allowed to have the weapons to defenders?

Speaker 1 (29:40):
Correct? Yes, that's not Yeah, i'mre.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
She she watches the news like everybody else over there, right,
terrified to walk down the street.

Speaker 1 (29:50):
But yeah, it doesn't want to get raped or something.
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (29:52):
Meanwhile, next door they're getting arrested for putting their flags up.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
Yeap. Oh that's happening in Scotland too, so oh is it?
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, And in Northern Ireland they've
had some stuff too. But uh yeah, yeah, like that
whole that is an absolute powder keg over there, man.
But now see what powder cag This is why powder kegs,
once they have a rallying point, are dangerous and it
doesn't matter whether you think they're correct or incorrect. I'll

(30:17):
give you another example. It's not like people didn't hate
on the police prior to George Floyd, right, yeah, you
had a lot of anti police activists. Yeah, of course
you had the anarchists out there. I've dealt with the anarchists,
like I said, when I was covering that RNC, and
I basically ended up getting a friendly fire pepper spray

(30:37):
for being too close to these netwits. Like that's not
a new thing. But George Floyd was a rallying point. Well,
you got people losing their minds over there. Uh, And
and now you have this this joan of arc style
character and in a society that's already seemingly ready to blow.

(31:00):
And plus you have the more nefarious sidehere. There's probably
people on the left who want people on the right
to quote unquote overreact and so that they can go
a full to draconian V for Vendetta kind of stuff. Man,
can you imagine watching V for Vendetta and going, man,
that sounds great phone number eight eight eight nine three

(31:22):
four seven eight seven four. So we got a little
sidetracked there by Native American warfare that was predicated on
the whole summer the DNC Summer meeting where they're like,
all right, let's go ahead and open the meeting.

Speaker 5 (31:37):
With Lindy the Nation and she's going to deliver our
land acknowledgment today.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
Lindy, Okay. So we had that going on. We had
Kenny Loggins holding a sing along for Abrego Garcia. So
you know, that's if you're just trying not to look
crazy seeing appeal to moderates. I don't know that yesterday
was probably a good day for it, But just to
put the cherry on top, there was one other thing

(32:07):
that's kind of insane, and I'm not sure that this
person necessarily is plugged into the American consciousness. You go
ahead and be the judge. Will we where does Trump go?

Speaker 9 (32:16):
Migrant crime, carjackings, the really lurid, awful stuff that is
a crazy, crazy visual.

Speaker 10 (32:22):
Don't take the bat.

Speaker 9 (32:22):
Because most Americans are more worried about how are we
going to address mental health issues, the visible homelessness that
we see on streets, and how do we deal with
mental health and other issues that drive the sort of
random incidents.

Speaker 8 (32:37):
That scare all of us.

Speaker 9 (32:39):
That's what you should be talking about. That's where you
should be focused. Don't take the bait and talking about
migrant crime or carjackings or the things that actually don't
matter to that many Americans.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Well, oh okay, I mean that's good advice. If you're
the Republicans, yeah, I would go. I would absolutely pretend
that none of the things are happening. Don't take the bait.
Most Americans don't care or and this is crazy, maybe
they care about some of the stuff you mentioned, but

(33:10):
they also care about this, which I think is probably
more accurate. I think most people don't want to see homelessness.
But also don't assume that there is not a mental
health or addiction component to it, right, because those are
adult discussions that adults have. But also if you're gonna
wholesale reject that there's any criminal behavior that frankly has

(33:32):
people concerned either through the permissiveness of judges and lawmakers.
You're basically like, look, you see what happened down in
Charlotte the other day. So this this young woman literally
comes from Ukraine, and not a good part of Ukraine,
but one of the exploding parts of Ukraine comes to

(33:54):
the US settles in Charlotte. Some would say that's probably
she's twenty three. She was twenty three, she'll all forever
be twenty three now, fled for a safer life, gets
on the light rail there in Charlotte and, according to authorities,

(34:18):
is brutally murdered. It happened around ten pm Friday, according
the police department in the I should say, in the
rail station. She wasn't yet on the rail in South End.
And the guy that's accused of murdering her is a
frequent flyered career criminal who has arrests, a pile of

(34:42):
arrests going back to twenty eleven. He's thirty four now,
and those arrests include felony, larceny, robbery with a dangerous weapon,
communicating threats a wide variety's homeless. He did serve five
years for in prison for robbery with the deadly weapon charge,
but basically he has not received any significant punishment for

(35:02):
subsequent offenses. Guy's doing ever he wants, and whatever he
wanted to do was to murder this twenty three year
old Ukrainian woman. And she's you know picture picture one
of those smoke showed tiny little Ukrainian girls. That's what
she looks like. So she didn't stand a chance against
the size of this dude. It looks like if he
in fact did it, because I got to say allegedly,

(35:25):
but people care about stuff like that. Did you see
over at Holland they're having a little moment right now
because some like seventeen year old girl was walking a
broad daylight and they're like, all right, I guess we're
gonna rape and murder her, basically right in the middle
of one of the busiest parts of our country, and

(35:46):
nobody's gonna do anything. People are up in arms. So yeah,
people care about this stuff. Because if that guy had
been held to account for his litany of crimes. He
likely wouldn't been on the street, which may makes it
a lot harder to murder some chick in a transit station.
And that truck driver if he's not able to come

(36:08):
here and make a U turn on that Florida Highway
because he was, you know, not provided asylum sent backers,
how not given a CDL than that family. Those three
family members are probably alive today. And when you say
this very logical thing, the response is always, well, it's
you know, there's other rapists and murderers, or there's other

(36:29):
bad truck drivers. And it's like, while that's not inaccurate,
that's a cop out, man, that's a cop out because
that one individual incident wouldn't happen unless you believe in
final destination or something. I guess then maybe then I
could understand you thinking that. But no, people see these

(36:52):
stories and they're horrified, and they're horrified not for necessarily,
you know, just their particular This is the other thing too,
not just for their particular little slice of who they are, right,
I don't have anything in common with somebody from Ukraine
other than I guess you could say we're both quote
unquote white people. Feel sympathy because she strikes people as

(37:19):
a good person, you know, or at least somebody wasn't
out being a career criminal. That's where the dividing line is,
and people are fed up with the career criminals that
can do whatever they want. And then we got to
play the yodeler game, so I could have ross guess
how many arrests somebody has before we find out it's
like three hundred and fifty, which is a number of

(37:40):
a person in Chicago, of a number of arrests they had.
I didn't just make that number up. But yeah, yeah,
pretend it's not happening, or that people who are upset
about it are somehow racist lunatics. That's going to go
real well, because let me tell you something, however, little
bit of you're able to instill in somebody who would

(38:02):
describe themselves as a moderate or a cross party voter
any of the rest if soon as they can see
I have a daughter about that age, and she walks
through that area, or she gets on that transit station
because she goes to UNC Charlotte or something. That parent
who may have been a loyal voter for you in
the past, they may not tell all their friends, but

(38:26):
I'll bet they have a very different opinion of safety
issues in sanctuary style cities and settings because now they're
twenty three year old daughter who's just started her life
chooses to live in uptown Charlotte, and you can't imagine
her trying to go home from work or from a
party or the restaurants and bars with her friends and

(38:46):
then getting brutally murdered and stabbed to death for just
trying to get on transit. It changes people, and if
you're going to fail to recognize that those concerns exist,
you're going to continue to lose on this stuff. And
it's because you believe the CNN. You sit there and

(39:08):
you're all in on it. This is an actual person
on CNN. This is an actual quote unquote expert yesterday.

Speaker 5 (39:13):
Essentially, what the President is doing, through the Secretary of
Defense is creating units, official military units, to quite frankly, guard,
or not guard, watch the American people. And that's the
thing that is absolutely abhorrent. It reminds me so much
of what happened in Germany in the nineteen thirties.

Speaker 1 (39:33):
Of course, it does absolutely ross. You were just saying
that the other day you're like, Oh, like, what he's
doing up in DC reminds me of the Nazis, Right,
a lot of similarities, said nobody except this guy on CNN,
Like you should. I'm telling you, I don't know how

(39:56):
you allow yourself to make comparisons to things like and
be serious about it. I don't mean being tongue in
cheek or over the top intentional. Right, these are all nuanced.
The way we discussed stuff. He believes that I was shuddering.
I was shuddering in my Chevy Chase Maryland gated community
just watching it, watching the American people, said the guy

(40:22):
promoting the Party of the Surveillance State. I just I
can't even with this stuff. All right, Well, we're deep
enough into this, so let's just go ahead and get
a fight, bruin, shall we. We're gonna open the phones.
We're gonna try to like, we're gonna try to have
unique and new thoughts on this, and I'm gonna explain
this executive order with the flag. People got so mad

(40:45):
at me, yes, say on Twitter, they told me to
leave the country. So everyone's all ginned up over this.
But we'll get into that when we talk about the
crime stuff. As well, because it is more targeted specific.
But I also don't think think it's really enforceable, and
just providing that analysis is triggering for people. So let's

(41:06):
put on our adult pants. Okay, let's put on our
ability to discuss things a hat and we'll reconvene here
in just a few minutes on the CaCO Day radio
program Tuesday morning, and I want you to listen to me.
I'm providing analysis, and a lot of people provided analo.

(41:26):
I was on Twitter. I just had to get the
heck off theory yesterday because people were pointing out, you know,
a few things, and rather than people being able to
you know, discuss things, anybody who had a dissenting opinion
was basically branded a comie. And I like even when
it wasn't opinion, it was just analysis. So like this

(41:47):
it has broken people. And theoretically I subscribe a little
to the theory that it's a bit of a trap,
because I think Trump traps are a thing. Like I'm
not a four D chess guy usually, but I am
a troll sometimes and I can see what's happening, like
the Trump traps. There's there's some recently they were just

(42:08):
amazing this kind of feels like one right where you're
gonna get your political opponent to die on this hill
so that they can go and cinerate flags during during
the riots. And so let me say this first and foremost,
I think people sit there and burn the American flag
are pieces of.

Speaker 4 (42:27):
Hold on, I need my little uh.

Speaker 1 (42:31):
Pieces of that. But also it's a really good piece
of piece of identifying mechanism, right because then and I'm like, oh,
oh you, oh, look at that you're doing that. Wow,
you're a piece of And that's my personal opinion, Okay,
except there's only one American flag that I did enjoy

(42:52):
watch being burned, and that was the Ross. Do you
remember one of the I think it was Cleveland? And
was that the was that the Republicans when they had
the r n C in Cleveland? Was I think it
was Cleveland, if I'm remembering remembering correctly. And one of

(43:12):
the protesters this is always like that. Sorry, uh. One
of the protesters lit it on fire and then it
lit them on fire. And then we had the amazing
parody song that we did called Girl on Fire to
Girl on Fire, and that that brought me brought me joy.

Speaker 2 (43:43):
Drug Corse she's just a girl and she's drug corset
in a fantasy, yeah, only like a highways.

Speaker 1 (43:57):
She's living in a world and it's so fine.

Speaker 4 (44:02):
Fill a catastrophe, but she knows she can fire away.

Speaker 3 (44:10):
She's not more feet on the ground and she's burning
it down.

Speaker 8 (44:20):
She got ahead in the clouds and she's not bucking time.
Carter stupid. This girl is off fire. She's walking Dr

(44:48):
Carter stupid.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
That line, by the way, that officer yelling you're on fire,
stupid will never not be funny to me till the
end of my days. So that one, and then there's
another one where it's in the middle of the night
there's a protest and the guy who you say that
ROSSI you remember the one where the guy lit is
both of his shoes on fire and is now doing
like he's trying to run but his shoes are on

(45:12):
fire across the street. That video is iconic. So like
those ones, I'll watch, but only for the amusement. So
what Trump passed yesterday is not as simple as you
can't burn flags in your yard. And you need to
understand that in fact, here he is signing this thing.

Speaker 11 (45:29):
And what the penalty is going to be if you
burn a flag, you get one year in jail. No
early exits, no nothing. You get one year in jail.
If you burn a flag, you get And what it
does is insight to write out. They use that language.
By the way, did insite to write yes? And you
burn a flag you get one year in jail. You

(45:50):
don't get ten years, you don't get one month. You
get one year in jail, and it goes on your record.

Speaker 1 (45:56):
Okay, and stopping immediately. So the phrasing of insight to
riot because a lot of people thought it just now
will if you burn a flag. Here's the problem, And
in my opinion, it's going to be the problem in
both cases. So if you go back to nineteen eighty nine,
there was a ruling Texas Johnson then cineratian American flags

(46:17):
is an active symbolic speech. And then there was actually
a second ruling, the Eikman ruling, and that basically is
now kind of the current settled law on this, and
it was used to strike down the Flag Protection Act
of nineteen eighty nine, which came a response to the
previous one. So that's where we sit today. So you

(46:39):
got that battle right there. Now it's more limited in
the sense that it has to be the burning of
flag has to be an act for the purpose of
inciting than this riotous behavior. The problem is, how do
you determine that I saw this. I just gotta share
this with you to just take a minute. The headline
school districts across the US forced to ditch electric buses.

(47:03):
So this goes back to the last administration where Kamala Harris.
One of her pet projects was to basically get the
electric school buses, and so they allocated money for that
and delivered sixty school buses and the company that was

(47:23):
contracted is now bankrupt. Why cause the buses break all
the time? And are you sitting down? Apparently there's so
especially in cold weather districts, they've been very, very problematic.
So now these things are money pits and they have
no way to fix them. So the districts right got

(47:44):
to take them out of rotation.

Speaker 3 (47:45):
If only there were the show on this frequency that
predicted this very thing back.

Speaker 1 (47:50):
Yeah, crazy, yeah, So sixty buses, how much do you
think we spent on sixty buses according to the allocation
provided for this program sixty bus six zero buses ross.
How much did we spend Oh my.

Speaker 3 (48:09):
Two hundred and fifty thousand.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
Oh no, no, sixty buses, not per bus total. Man,
the sixty buses.

Speaker 3 (48:15):
I don't know how much.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
I guess government. Man a million, No, a lot more,
ten million, whole hell of a lot more.

Speaker 3 (48:24):
One hundred million.

Speaker 1 (48:26):
Keep going upwards and onward. Yeah, you were close. It
was five billion.

Speaker 3 (48:31):
Whoa we said it. When we heard this story, We're like,
you know, especially in like a colder climate, you have
any of these people ever had a car battery or
battery failed them in like a blizzard or like freezing weather.
Because it's happened to me.

Speaker 1 (48:49):
Yet happen how many people would come to Minnesota or
Wyoming and then they get there, they moved there and like,
why do you have plugs sticking out in the front
of your car. It's like, well, son, let me tell
you about block heaters and trickle chargers. Right, that's the
thing in the cold weather. One you want to keep
the liquids from jelling. But two you want to trickle
charge your battery because batteries hate cold. They don't like
cold at all. Five billion dollars allocated for this program.

(49:15):
They got sixty buses, which we now have to abandon.

Speaker 3 (49:18):
Yeah, we said they would break. They said there'd be
an issue with the battery.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
I think there was a toxicity issue too, So there
was a problem with poisoning the kids. Is that bad?
Not sure if you want to poison kids on their
bus ride or none. So there you go. Yeah, that's
another win win there. And by the way, to learn
this today is the anniversary of Abbygate too, so the
botched withdrawal from Afghanistan that saw thirteen service members killed

(49:47):
and countless afghanis who if you remember, decided hey, I
can hold on to a plane that's taking off. That
won't be a problem, and then it produced that horrific video.
All right, let's get into the flag issue, shall we, Jamal,
thanks for having on what's up?

Speaker 2 (50:02):
You know what Casey you knowne talked about so much
good stuff, the electric buses which we knew and now
and plus people getting tired of white guilt in Europe.
But when it comes to the flag burning, the Supreme
Court gives and the Supreme Court can take away the
Supreme Court rule that you can burn flag like that.
They said that because we had Flag Defection Act. Now

(50:24):
for those who say, well that's part of free speech.
When you got people here who are protesting and the
removal of an illegal immigrant and out there burning the
American flag that ain't what it's supposed to have been for.
They're supposed to been for, Like, oh, you protesting, which
I think it was a stupid idea that should have
never allowed. Flag burned. This should have never been allowed anywhere.

(50:45):
But I noticed this, and Casey, I'm not trying to
be racist, but it's these white countries, these Western European
cultures that want to have all this understanding intolerance and love,
and oh you people of color, you so pulled, unhelpful
of soul, people of color, you just need us to

(51:06):
help you. They allow that. Go flag burn the flag
of Saudi Arabia and Saudi Arabia. Go burn the flag
of China and China. Go burn the flag of Russia
and Russia. Matter of fact, go burn the flag of
Ukraine and Ukraine is everybody talking about you? Go burn
the flagg.

Speaker 1 (51:20):
I like to go to North Korea and do it,
so that's where I think people should go who are enthusiasts.
I'm sure they won't have a problem with it. But
let me let me ask you them other side. Let
me ask you the flip side, Jamal, because here's the
here's the slippery slop argument that people will give and
they're like, you may like Trump, but you know you
eventually you get some lunatic in there, and do you
want that lunatic being able to dictate to you parameters

(51:44):
of how you can protest that?

Speaker 2 (51:47):
First of all, we do that with the Second Amendment.
I'm sawing. I'm one of those people who believe the
Second Amendment means that if someone served at prison time,
they can get the Second Amendment back. We live and
we live in a nation now, and that the thing
that says shall not be infringed upon is always infringed upon.
So why why is free speech any different? Because people

(52:09):
like free speech more than second Amendment, people like the
first more than a second. So if if so, what
that was Joe.

Speaker 1 (52:15):
Biden, Joe, do you think the First Amendment should be
more restrictive or the Second Amendment should be less restricted
in the way that the way that we enforce it,
the way the government treats it.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
I think the Second Amend that should be as equal
as less restrictive as the first. If someone can go
out there and scream I'm gonna steal three, five, eight people,
and they should be able to have their get their
first amendment right. It should be the same. You should
the same way. You should not lose your first, you
should not lose your second.

Speaker 1 (52:44):
I'm just asking from a consistency, Jamal. I appreciate the
call there by the way some of you are sending
me the story of this guy that was arrested for
burying the flag in front of the White House yesterday.
He was not arrested under this. He was arrested because
there is a law in about uh building a fire.
It is hilarious because clearly it wasn't being enforced among
homeless around DC. But it is illegal to burn anything

(53:08):
in one of the parks in DC. So that's technically
what he's charged with. We'll see if it tracks back
to any of this, Okay, but that's what that's about. Chris.
What's up, good morning?

Speaker 2 (53:20):
How are you?

Speaker 1 (53:21):
I'm good, sir? What's uh? What's what's your question or
statement or what?

Speaker 2 (53:24):
Well, it's a common or question. But isn't it the
proper way to dispose of an American.

Speaker 1 (53:32):
Flag that has damaged is to burn it?

Speaker 4 (53:34):
And isn't that a slippery slope, then well.

Speaker 1 (53:37):
What do you mean in the the flag code and
specifically the parameters just to because here's the thing people get.
Really I understand what you're asking, sir, but some people
get real anal about this thing about the flag code.
And it's like, intentions matter, right, you want people to
respect it. And clearly, if you have military background, you
have a you have a more finite probable understanding of this.

(54:00):
But you know, if somebody screws up a little, but
they're still like they're trying to exhibit the flag and
then they accidentally drop it, like, go ahead and put
it back up at your house, I know you don't
mean it. So intentions matter, and proper disposal under flag
coat is not burning one at the foot of a
police line. You would agree, right, right?

Speaker 2 (54:19):
I agree about what I'm saying. Is I believe people
would use it as a worker or hey, it was damaged,
can you prove otherwise?

Speaker 1 (54:26):
No, you're probably right, sir. That's why it's going to
be interesting to watch this thing track. I just I
don't know if i'd put on my eggs in the
Scotis will overturn it basket. But we'll see you who knows,
who knows?

Speaker 2 (54:39):
All right?

Speaker 1 (54:39):
Thanks, yeah, thanks for the call. Appreciate that. Ah uh oh, Ross,
will you put that real man of genius thing you
dubbed in last week back up on the button? Bar
real quick? Okay, thank you, you know the one. Yes,
Boston Paul, What can I do for you?

Speaker 12 (54:58):
I mean I locked up somebody years ago in the
early nineties for desecrating the flag, and uh, I was dismissed.
Do you have the charges of disorderly conduct, looting, lascivious blossomy,
stealing the flag from the post office that all stuck
in the judge.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
In the same way that this this thing will probably
stick with the guy burning.

Speaker 12 (55:19):
Yeah, I'm going to say it's it's gonna be secondary
crimes as where you can be put away. And uh
the judge hit him for two years and that was
the correction. He served a year. So yeah, that's and
that's what Trump said yesterday. You know, he says the
burning of the flag causes the riot. You know, it's
it's going to cause this orderly conduct no matter what.
Just the burning of the flag is disorderly conduct.

Speaker 1 (55:40):
So yeah, you got it. If somebody did inside a
riot and they clearly like the police body cam, you
can hear them going, hey, let's go, let's go burn
this thing down. And then you go burn this thing down.
What is a police officer going to use as some
sort of evidence. Is it going to be because you
saw him burning a flag five minutes before? Or will
it be their own work herds that you're going to
hang them on for the purpose of arrest?

Speaker 12 (56:03):
Well, which what causes? What what's happening after the time
of the burning of the flag.

Speaker 1 (56:09):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is so it'll be interesting. I'm
sure there'll be plenty of court cases. Let's talk about
the real crime. Your guys's defense. What the hell? Man? Well,
I will say this. Your new male cheerleader was they
were killing it. So you got said, I can't hear

(56:31):
you like I can't hear you. Got a player on
Patriots cheerleaders play smash mouth football, real men turn cut
wheels and somersaults.

Speaker 3 (56:43):
You just list it in.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
I'm gonna hang out bots down at Oranges the games
on the line.

Speaker 4 (56:49):
It all comes down to you.

Speaker 1 (56:51):
Will you call for a perky pyramid or a peppy line? Dance,
knock them back, knock them back.

Speaker 4 (56:59):
All all the way to hacking, Zack, so grab an
ice cold bud, Like mister Mayo football cheerleaders.

Speaker 1 (57:07):
You may never.

Speaker 4 (57:08):
Score a touchdown, but you're kind of that's gotta count
for something.

Speaker 1 (57:16):
Was like, so there you go, Boston, Paul in your honor.
All right, raceed Agic from the weather channel. What's up, man,
way up to? I look, we haven't got to a
full on hurricane hit yet, so I can't get yours
out yet. Oh no, the standing standing the hurricaye weather guy,
I have it right here ready to go, but we

(57:38):
we slipped the news, so to speak. Although they finally
just finally got one of the roads out on OKRAF
twelve Main Highway. There happened, so twelve back open.

Speaker 10 (57:46):
Yeah, went out to see tropical storm fair non forty
five mile power, tropical storm way well out over the
shipping lanes of the Atlantic rest of the tropic squad.
I think we'll stay that way for the red to
the month and the weather. It's actually gonna be pretty decent.
Got some clouds in this morning, radars picking up something

(58:07):
might be a few light sprinkles coming through the Triad
and the triangle as we speak, but that'll be about it.
We'll get some sun with the clouds today, upper seventies,
low eighties. Same thing tomorrow might be a degree or
two cooler. So if today you're eighty two, it might
be eighty, and if you're seventy eight, you might be
seventy seven or seventy six.

Speaker 1 (58:24):
You get the picture.

Speaker 10 (58:25):
Just trying to kill time here with this kind of
boring weather pattern. Wednesday Thursday, more sunny to partly sunny weather,
upper seventies, maybe eighty.

Speaker 1 (58:32):
And then as we get.

Speaker 10 (58:33):
Into Friday, your eighty degree Saturday, Sunday, even on into
Labor Day upper seventies and some low eighties round looks
really nice. Right on through the upcoming weekend, the loads
will be comfortable to upper fifties to low sixties. Nice
run here and in the next seven days. Certainly don't
see summertime weather coming back the average high this time
of year. Islas see, I said it, and I wasn't

(58:55):
ready for it, but it only take me a second
to get.

Speaker 1 (58:57):
It here from it. Nobody, yeah, eighty eight, eighty eight,
unless you said like three, then the no.

Speaker 10 (59:03):
No, So eighty eight we did go to eighty nine yesterday.
Records are in the fifties so we'll see if we
get close to records next couple of mornings. Either way,
beautiful weather, joint get outside, no jackets required in the afternoons.
Maybe in the mornings you will. But other than that,
don't get too much better than.

Speaker 1 (59:19):
This unless you're one of the really old guys playing
golf in eighty degree weather. The other day, my buddy
sent me a picture of with long teams on. So well, thanks,
thanks man, appreciate it. All right, seven forty seven hang on,
All right, let's grab a couple more phone calls on
this flag in sanity coming up. We got cracker barrel

(59:40):
update for you, that'll be in the next hour. I
have a few things we'll get to Bill. What's up, Good.

Speaker 2 (59:48):
Morning, Casey.

Speaker 12 (59:49):
A novel solution to the flag burning?

Speaker 1 (59:53):
Okay, and that is that.

Speaker 2 (59:55):
All future purchases.

Speaker 10 (59:57):
Shape up like the purchase.

Speaker 12 (59:59):
Of video game, where you're actually just buying the license
to the product, you don't actually own the product.

Speaker 1 (01:00:04):
Well, that's digital media, sir. In the is it a
digital flag or is it a physical flag?

Speaker 8 (01:00:10):
It?

Speaker 1 (01:00:12):
Okay, your phone your phone is hot, garbage, sir, it's
cutting out, so I can't tell if you're serious or
you're just because that's it's funny. If you're being sarcastic,
it's terrifying if you're serious. All right, good, that's what

(01:00:34):
I needed. All right, thanks man, thanks for the thing there. Yeah,
the last thing you know, Oh, you gotta you gotta
pay for your flag subscription. Do you see what Volkswagen's
doing with one other little I can't which model it is. Now,
this is the stuff that's like, this is the stuff
that's gonna more quickly kill some of these manufacturers so

(01:00:55):
that they'll sell you a car and it'll have like
two hundred and ten horse it since their little cars,
so it's probably more enough to get that thing cruising.
And then for a monthly fee of I think seventeen
dollars excuse me, seventeen dollars, that will unlock sixty additional horsepower.

(01:01:16):
I screw you. How's that man, especially with what cars cost.

Speaker 3 (01:01:21):
Now, that's putting it nicely. Yeah, yeah, that's why I
had to paul out. But think about that. You could
pay your flag tax, right, and then that money could
go to the school system, oh for the kids, to
help indoctrinate your children, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:01:33):
For indoctrinating. Yeah, it's okay, but it's still for the kids, right,
because it's a doctrination for the kids.

Speaker 3 (01:01:38):
Well you don't. You don't love the kids.

Speaker 1 (01:01:40):
No, I love kids. I don't love them indoctrinated though,
So someone argue that this is a wedge issue of sorts. Mark,
what's up?

Speaker 4 (01:01:52):
Good morning and greetings from Mahannover County. I want you
to know I'm picking you up all the way here
on the coast.

Speaker 1 (01:01:57):
Oh, good sir, I appreciate that. So, by the way,
why is it your neighbors think they can escape police
by jumping off a bridge? Do they not know? Police
will just come all the water?

Speaker 3 (01:02:08):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:02:09):
And you know, yeah, well you know, we have a
lot of water around here, and Neanderer County is basically
about an island, so we had the Cape Ferrier and
the Atlantic Ocean on the other side. And I guess.

Speaker 1 (01:02:25):
Story, this guy thinks he's getting away. But anyway, you
want to say something about the flags, go right ahead.

Speaker 4 (01:02:31):
I did. I did so as somebody who grew up
in the American legion basically as a child. And one
of the things that we did besides helped the as
a child, help the little old ladies in the auxiliary
make the poppies, you know for the veterans is we
would have the flag burning ceremony. So there was a
ceremony that was performed for the tattered flags, flags that

(01:02:53):
couldn't fly anymore, and it was done. It was done
with honor. I just want to say that it was
there was a procedure to it. So but yes, that
is very correct that your previous caller so.

Speaker 1 (01:03:06):
About video game flag taxes or oh the other guy.

Speaker 4 (01:03:10):
About you know, the flag burning is done and and
you know.

Speaker 1 (01:03:14):
Right, And that's that's why it's important when we started
this to remind people that the language of this executive
order specifically speaks to inciting a riot. And I don't
think that's what was going on with the American Legion.
It was probably the old guys drinking.

Speaker 4 (01:03:27):
So no, no, the American Legion, like I said, when
when they're all about when when when it's it's it's
something to honor veterans and something to no.

Speaker 1 (01:03:37):
I'm sorry you misunderstanding, sry. I'm not insulting the American Legion.
I'm pointing out that literally the worst thing that happened
probably after the ceremonious guys sat around and drank beer
and told stories. So they didn't have that.

Speaker 4 (01:03:48):
That's usually that's usually whenever they have things at night,
whenever that happens. And yeah, well the American Legion here
they had a canteen you know, for the veterans that
that would come in and and uh court the children
weren't allowed in there.

Speaker 1 (01:04:03):
Right, absolutely, I've been I've been to the Legion there
south of the Triangle there, so I know what's up.
They're building a new wing onto a hayes manor so
I was just asking if they got all framed up
and how everything's going there so and if they have,
do you bring the sharks in for the trapdoor shark
pit now or is that come later? I mean, I
don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:04:21):
I'm not gonna lie. I don't know a lot about
the process. I believe that they know what they're doing,
so we'll see the average good.

Speaker 1 (01:04:26):
You hired them, so that's probably probably should So anyway,
just tracking tracking that that is that is interesting, by
the way, I'll tell you what else is interesting. So
there's this story out of Wilmington, where story out of Wilmington,
and I love these kinds of people. Who think they're

(01:04:47):
getting away where this guy's like, so he's running from
police and I don't know if you just watched The
Fugitive or or or what prompted this, but dude, decide,
all right, So I guess what I gotta do is
I just got to jump off this the bridge there
in Wilmington, this sixty foot drop, which that's totally doable

(01:05:11):
if you've ever done any like cliff jumping or just
jump from you know, train tracks or anything on your own.
We jump from some dumb stuff growing up. So so
he jumps and then police, obviously you know, fish them
out and they they grab them and that's it because

(01:05:31):
you know they have boats too. I don't know if
you know this, especially down in Wilmington, as their previous
color pointed out, they've got a lot of water there
and generally sheriff's apartments have boats for like swift water
rescue and things like that. So they're gonna fish you out.
You don't get away. And then it reminded me of
some of these police chases. These are the ones that
kill me, where they're running from cops and then they

(01:05:53):
pull into their driveway like it's like it's a you know.

Speaker 3 (01:05:57):
It happens on on Patrol Live every time, and you
can tell when they start to do it and they're.

Speaker 1 (01:06:01):
I tag my house.

Speaker 3 (01:06:02):
Yeah I'm here now, so you can't tow my car
because they that's what it comes down to. They don't
want their car to be towed. Yeah, like well now no,
Now it's like, you know, you were trying to flee
and now we need to take the car. Yeah, it's
so dumb. Don't do that.

Speaker 1 (01:06:17):
Yeah, I'm on my own property. You need a warrant. No.
Not if they literally had part of a police shoot
followed you there. Now, if you're in California, you might
get away with it. They had one of the was
they had one a And this is saying so they
had a wild police chase the other day and you
might have seen video on Twitter, but you might not
have seen all the video because the video that really
everyone was passing around was the dude just casually getting

(01:06:39):
gas right in the middle of a police chase.

Speaker 3 (01:06:41):
But no, Marky sent that to me yesterday. That's an
incredible video. So the guy's in California and he loses
the police or they stopped the chase or whatever, but they.

Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
Stopped you know, because this is what they do now
they stopped the damn chase.

Speaker 3 (01:06:53):
It's so frustrating. But like the helicopter was above him,
and he stops her gas in the middle of the chase,
puts gas in his car, gets back in the car,
starts going. They then continue the pursuit like suddenly, oh,
now we're going to start chasing him again.

Speaker 1 (01:07:07):
Wait, wait, hold on, hold on. You left one element
that's I think important to that, the crazy the extra
crazy party getting gassed is did you see the dude
directly next to him he's getting gassed. Who's now looking
at this lunatic who's out getting gassed frantically with his
with his his shirt pulled.

Speaker 3 (01:07:22):
Over his hurt. He looks like Cornholio like.

Speaker 1 (01:07:25):
Yeah, this guy's just trying to figure, you know, fill
up his car and he's just like, oh my gosh,
what is this louted to? I don't even want to know?
And he kind of turns back away for the guy
like I don't even want to know.

Speaker 3 (01:07:35):
He gets strack in the car. They start to chase him. Yeah,
and then he does this thing where this is actually
like two hundred and eighty five billion IQ type stuff.
So he's driving and the police helicopters above him. The
cops are kind of like a while back, and they're
catching up to him. And then when he goes under
this big underpass, the helicopter is just sitting there, so

(01:07:55):
the car is now out of view. And then you
see the car roll continue so it's come out from it. It
looks like it's driving, you know, under the under the
other side. Yeah, but what he had done is put
the car in neutral. And then when he was out
of the camera's shot because it was blocked by the
under the overpass, he uh, he gets out of his
car and runs parallel to it so they can't see
where he goes. The cops close him in the car

(01:08:16):
and he's gone.

Speaker 1 (01:08:17):
He pulled the Jack Reacher.

Speaker 3 (01:08:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:08:20):
So if you guys, if you guys saw the first
I think it was the first, Yes, the first Jack
Reacher movie. There's a scene where he's running from police
and he's in uh, he's in some like old style
muscle car. Uh and uh there's a moment where he
gets they lose visual contact. Everyone's chased, and it goes
around this corner and in one motion he keeps the

(01:08:42):
car rolling at about ten miles an hour, gets out,
blends into a group of people. They're standing at a
bus stop. Some dude puts his ball cap on Tom
Cruise and then it kind of keeps rolling where police
have their you know, their car's barricade set up, and
then so they're all con straight on the car. He
just gets on the bus and gets out. So it's

(01:09:02):
a it's half that and half that move was it?
Baby driver? Where he had the red car, they go
into the underpass where they have like three other red cars,
and then when there, when they're seen from above, it
looks like they're saying, like three cars now they don't
know why, don't know who to follow? He plastic movie trope.
This guy executed though.

Speaker 3 (01:09:18):
Yeah he executed it though to block the view of
the helicopter with the with the overpass, and it's amazing.
It was pretty smart and he's just gone. They're like,
well he's gone, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:09:27):
That's it. But yeah, but the thing was too it's this,
it's that we stopped the we're stopped. This is so
it's so annoying to watch Durham does this crap right,
so because it incentivizes it's like, all right for being
chased by police. All you have to do is go
one hundred and twenty miles an hour through a school
zone and they'll let you go. Well, why would you

(01:09:47):
want to send that message? Plus, if you're one of dude,
I told you one of the one of the best
things about living in California. I know you're like God,
there's not no there are good things, right, It's beautiful.
You love the outdoors that is gorgeous unless it's on fire.
And the ocean's nice, the beaches are nice. But one

(01:10:09):
of the most unifying thing is the most insane. Police
chases take place so frequently in Los Angeles that every
every network has invested in like multiple helicopters, They have
teams ready, have teams to fly around basically all day
waiting for police chases so that they can scramble to them.

(01:10:29):
And then when it's coverage time, all of the local
affiliates and like where I was in Santa Barbara would
just pick up like the KTLA feed and everyone would stop,
like everyone's day would stop to watch the insane police chase,
and you would have you would have the border runners.
Those are the most fascinating. They had a police chase
where a guy had he had like he had his

(01:10:50):
infant daughter in the car. It started in like Alameda,
which is La He got all the way to the
border which is with Tijuana there, which by the way,
there's just hit the dang thing. There is no there
is no fast way to move through there. So now
he's got to jump out of the vehicle. He's got
like one hundred yards to go. He grabs the baby

(01:11:11):
out of the car and uses it at a projectile
at fleeing sheriff's deputies who catch the baby and then
proceed to give this guy pavement burns all over his
stupid face. That insanity could ensue at one o'clock in
the afternoon on a Tuesday. You just didn't know. And

(01:11:32):
now half the time I see these videos, it's well,
we're going to stop the chase because he sped.

Speaker 3 (01:11:38):
Oh it's so annoying when you're watching on Patrol Live.

Speaker 1 (01:11:41):
Yeah, you want to see this thing out.

Speaker 3 (01:11:43):
You can tell like the officers are frustrated too, because
they want to get the guy.

Speaker 1 (01:11:48):
Yes, that's inherently what police should want to do if
they want to arrest the criminal. I know. Oh, it's
also about community relations. Yeah, it is, but also, but
more importantly, it's about, you know, what makes the community
more relatable. Not having murders everywhere or lunatics that would
throw babies at people so they can escape to Mexico.
That'd be good too, But yeah, that's a whole industry

(01:12:11):
down there. And that guy man that that one's gonna
go down is a kind of legend, this.

Speaker 3 (01:12:16):
Guy that jumped off the bridge in Wilmington. Yes do
would you agree? You pretty if you do that? And
you suddenly hear Moby from the Jason Bourne movie playing,
you know that you've gotten away otherwise?

Speaker 2 (01:12:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:12:26):
Or mentioned impossible? Yeah? Yeah, no, honey, well unless you're
Bourne's wife, Oh yeah, yeah, you don't want to go
in the water for her, but yeah, yeah, like at
the end of the movie where he jumps off in
the water and then he looks like he's not moving
and they starts moving and the music goes Yeah, remember
which of the Burns yet is right?

Speaker 3 (01:12:47):
So when you jump in, jump in, listen for the
music and if you hear you good.

Speaker 1 (01:12:51):
Can you bring your own like old eighties big boombox
for that.

Speaker 3 (01:12:56):
Rule is there? I think they'd be cheating.

Speaker 1 (01:12:58):
I have a waterproof radio, I think, I think in
my attic, so that's uh could work. I don't know
the sound ways would travel under underwater, but hey, you
know we can see all right eight eight eight nine
three four seven eight seven four. Do you think the
guy had given thought about that he would do that,

(01:13:18):
or do you think it occurred to him on the
fly to do the the Jack Reacher thing with the
with the over.

Speaker 3 (01:13:25):
I don't know. I mean he had to give it
some thought leading up to it, maybe, or maybe it.

Speaker 1 (01:13:30):
Just kicked in. There's just a criminal, he has criminal
inherent criminal dirt bag jeans and they just you know,
wiled out man. Yeah, and then you know the over.
You know, it's like the surrender shed. We talked to that,
but not only I have one picked out.

Speaker 3 (01:13:45):
To not only ditch the vehicle. Right, you're being blocked
by the bridge, which is great, but then to understand
that you have to run parallel to it because they
can't see where you're going because it's a long ass bridge, right,
just keep bring it.

Speaker 1 (01:13:56):
Plus, it's a vehicle you're not familiar. It was a
stolen vehicle just right right, So like he's not even
you know, you're not one hundred percent comfortable with it. Yeah,
I don't know, man. Uh Now. And that's the other
thing too. Now you have law enforcement who's like, well,
what we need is we need These are more of
these slippery slope things where you say, not law enforcement,

(01:14:19):
as much as people want to pretend, they're getting people
who want to encumber law abiding citizens and their quest
to look like they're tough on crime. Anytime they start
the discussion of kill switches, I lose my crap, you
know what it makes me want to do. And frankly,
I'm almost at this point anyway, the next automobile I'm
gonna buy is going to be a big block carbureted

(01:14:43):
no brain box. Is that paranoid? Is that too paranoid?

Speaker 3 (01:14:48):
One?

Speaker 1 (01:14:48):
I love muscle cars, and I know how I am
comfortable enough taking apart and putting back together like a
you know, Chevy three fifty with a you know, a
little holly carbon there. I can do that because I've
done it so that you know, there's that. But also
I'm just getting to the paranoid point where they're where
they're like, all right, we're gonna charge you for extra horsepower,

(01:15:09):
We're gonna put a kill switch, We're gonna do all
these things, and I'm like, leave me alone, and I
don't need a brain box, so you, by insurance can
use it to deny my claim sometime down the road.
Screw all, you all give me something. Probably go a
little more hmm or fifty four, you know, I want.
I want some that ever people can hear coming down

(01:15:30):
the state line. So yeah, that's that's the that's the
way to go. I'll tell you what is that, man?
What is that place down and done? That's got all
the cars I have to battle with not going down?
There was the East Coast something. I've given them free ads,
but like they have a bunch of muscle cars down
there that I was just like, yeah, that would fit

(01:15:52):
the bill. But they're all like now in pristine condition.
It's just way too much. I'd probably want a project thing.
But every time I see these companies just speculate on
this stuff, I just want no part of it. Man.
It's closer and closer, and I don't care if it
gets twelve miles to the gallon. I just don't anyway,

(01:16:13):
All right, let me let me flip back over to
this A new list out of how to know if
your husband is cheating because this is probably helpful, but
more specifically, the top occupations where men are likely to cheat?
Why is there not one for women? I guess we

(01:16:33):
can make crew jokes and speculate on that in the moment. Ross,
What occupations do you think might be the occupations of
people who are more likely to cheat be unfaithful? What
kind of jobs do you think they work? Because there
is a running theme here clearly, I.

Speaker 3 (01:16:53):
Don't know, like a psychopathic CEO or something.

Speaker 1 (01:16:56):
Correct, You're absolutely correct. Number one on the list is
basically the company executives.

Speaker 3 (01:17:01):
You know, like that guy from the Coldplay concert right
by the way. Do you see what Coldplay does now?

Speaker 1 (01:17:07):
I watched one of their I watched a little snippet
where they're doing that same thing with the little viewing thing,
and Chris Martin, the lead singer, he's really funny with
why he's doing it. He's like he has somebody over
there with like a pretend thing that they can sign
to make sure that they're not here with other spouses.
They're just hamming it up, dude. It was so funny.
It's floating, I thought, floating around, Yes, Sessy, you.

Speaker 3 (01:17:28):
Know, I mean he was funny on the initial video
that went viral.

Speaker 1 (01:17:30):
Yeah, yeah, man, it was. But now you just got
to lean into it. That's great in the same way
that I thought it was really I thought it was
really smart for the company that eighty sixties two to
bring on Gwyneth Paltrow as their spokesperson for just one commercial.
That's good. That's look, that's that's good. Pr cracker barrel.

(01:17:54):
We'll get into the cracker barrel stuff here at eight
thirty five, so that is coming. But no, here we
go CEOs, surgeons, physicians, politicians. Again, this goes back to
the amount of you know, there's a certain amount of ego,
well ego that goes with that. And if it's the

(01:18:15):
same reason these billionaires are like, hey, remember that other
billionaire who basically got turned into sea mist because he
used a PlayStation joystick to go to the Titanic and
it didn't work. Let's go ahead and do it again.
It's like, there's this there's this thing that once you've
conquered and once you've succeeded, man, you just you just
i it. Either it either balloons into the utmost confidence

(01:18:37):
that you use to propel yourself forward to become that
captain of industry or whatever your profession is, or there's
the there's the part where the ego takes over.

Speaker 3 (01:18:46):
You know, we do a lot of lists that don't
seem to check out, but this list seems to check
out well.

Speaker 1 (01:18:51):
But also, uh so it goes CEOs, surgeons, physicians, politicians.
You'll never guess what number five is. This is what's
so crazy. I go ahead, take one guess and you
wouldn't even be close. Police officer, unemployed Really, yeah, what
is that about? I guess at that point? How does

(01:19:14):
that work? Also? Who are these women who are like, hey,
I know he's married, but at least he doesn't have
a job. Is that?

Speaker 3 (01:19:23):
How's that where you're like, I'm going to a job
interview and you're actually cheating on your spouse.

Speaker 1 (01:19:27):
I guess maybe I don't know. I just read the
name of the study author. Ah, Wendy Wang Wang oh man. Oh,
that's who's cheating with your husband, doctor Wang Wang oh Man.

Speaker 3 (01:19:49):
But yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:19:50):
How's the homeless guy work into there? But no unemployed
man between the ages of twenty five to fifty four
are more likely to have extramarital affairs, and one and
about one in five have already cheated. I think maybe
that's just part and parcel will kind of be and
you know, the people be employed for a lot of reasons,
but one of those reasons is your garbage. And maybe

(01:20:13):
if your garbage on one side, your garbage on the other,
I don't know. But anyway, so there's the list. Make
of it what you will, because again it tracks until
that fifth one, and we'll come back. We'll get into
the cracker barrel update kind of apology that's next. Have
driven into the traditions up in Wake Forest, don't realize
how big it is. I remember I was surprised, that's all.

(01:20:35):
But in this case, apparently some guy did a police
chase by Ross's house and then decided to drive into
the reservoir in the neighborhood north of him.

Speaker 3 (01:20:44):
I heard it last night. We went to bed, probably
around like eight o'clock, and I was still, you know,
tossing and turn it, and somewhere around like eight twenty
or so, I heard like more police sirens than I've
ever heard in my entire life. And I said to
mar said, what is going on? And she had her
earplugs and she's like, yeah, I like to something. There's
something's going on with the cops or something, and I
guess this is what it was.

Speaker 1 (01:21:06):
Yeah, he this is a little less skillful than the
overpass incident. He just dunked his car. So was it
his car was stolen?

Speaker 4 (01:21:15):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:21:16):
Apparently he drove right down way to Avenue in wake
Forest into traditions and like like into like the water reservoir.
I guess they've now taken the car out of it,
like it's removed. But whoops, yeah, a little bit.

Speaker 1 (01:21:31):
I doesn't say whether it was stolen or not. Well,
either way, it was old, big old police chase there
did say what always charged with charges of fleeing to
elude littering? Oh that's dude, that's funny. That's always a
funny charge right there. What did he litter his car
into the reservoir? I mean that counts right resisting a

(01:21:55):
public officer. You can't throw a tin cannon there, You
can't throw a Chevy. Can you not park in the reservoir?
What's that?

Speaker 3 (01:22:03):
Can you not park in the reservoir?

Speaker 4 (01:22:04):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:22:06):
I mean I don't know all the rules. You know,
now you're dealing with HOA rules too, So yeah, so
he's probably gonna get it'll be what happened with the
police doing it will be nothing compared to what the
hoa does to him. So h yeah, the littering charge
is always funny to me. So Cracker Barrel, I guess

(01:22:29):
thinks maybe they didn't handle this as well as they could.
I know, you're shocked. And remember they even doubled down
on this initially they and I would argue they tripled
down because then they did they did the thing. They
went on GMA and told, uh, you know, mister tooth gap,
there that little straight hand joke that everybody loves it.

(01:22:55):
Oh yeah, the pocus groups love it. Our store managers
love it. Your store managers probably just want their rests
updated because stuff's breaking. But whatever, everybody loves it, it's
gonna be great. And then clearly everyone didn't love it,
and then they're like, ah, they're a vocal minority. So
that was double down number one. Double down number two.
They decided, hey, let's have a hipster pop up, a

(01:23:17):
launch party in a city where we have no locations,
involving a bunch of people who've probably never eaten there.
And they did. They got the oversized rocking chair. They
all pretend they're like, oh, what are they doing down south?
I'm sure that they line dance all day and play
corn hole. Let's do that in our freshly bought cowboy

(01:23:39):
get up. This is why the phrase all hat and
no cattle exists, which is a great phrase. You could
be used in a variety of things. But that's that's
how most of us in Wyoming would talk about summer
tourists who decided they could. It's fine if you just
want to come through. But if you show up in

(01:24:00):
a pair of tony Lama boots that it looked like
they've never seen gravel. You know, some sort of rope
and shirt. You got your cowboy hat that's not sized
properly to you. But you're from Connecticut and you want
to have all the fields when you get to the
guest ranch. When we see you at the gas station
or at the co op, somebody's gonna say at some point,

(01:24:22):
all hat, no cattle. Don't take it personally, but it's
a perfect analogy here. It's great you want to do that,
but people are gonna talk. That's why I made fun
of port Kevin Campbell when he got those cowboy boots,
although he legitimately got them because he was he was
one of the physicians that basically was on staff for

(01:24:45):
the Beef Producers Association. So you go down to ranches
and stuff. I don't know, we talked about it, but
at least his stuff was sized properly.

Speaker 3 (01:24:53):
I mean, I would give Kevin a pass because that's
sort of like his style, right.

Speaker 1 (01:24:57):
His style is that, but also he he was pimping
the Western beef production.

Speaker 3 (01:25:03):
His style is the clash.

Speaker 1 (01:25:04):
Yes, yeah, if you've ever golfed with him, it's it's
a fluorescent seizure, would be the best way to describe it.
It's funny too when I was flying. Whenever I fly
from Raleigh to Miami, it flies right over where he lives.
So if I'm ever on that flight, I always send
him a text on him. I can see him, so

(01:25:26):
you know, from the air, could you fly right on
right on the coastline there? But it's probably not far
off man. So anyway, so that was double down number
three that you just said number two, because he decided
to do that when everything was not going well. Well,
now here we go. So this statement issued yesterday, quote
Uncle Herschel will still be on the menu is referring

(01:25:50):
to the Cracker Baryl logo with the guy. The guy's
name is Uncle Herschel. I guess if you didn't know
the old logo, Uncle Herschel will still be on her menu.
Welcome back Uncle Herschel's favorite breakfast platter, which is which
is one of the good platters, I will say, although
the meat one they used to have that was the winner.

(01:26:11):
It'll be on our road signs and featured in our
country store. He's not going anywhere. He's family. We know
we won't always get everything right. That's another one of
those phrases I'm just getting sick of in these corporate apologies.
They always use it in the same way when a
politician retires because of a scandal, they say that they
need to spend more time with family. Anyway, we know

(01:26:34):
we won't always get everything right the first time, but
we'll keep testing, learning and listening to our guests and employees.
At the end of the day, our promise is simple.
You'll always find comfort, community and country hospitality here at
Cracker Barrel. So it does. It doesn't sound like they're
going to change the logo, probably because they spend a

(01:26:54):
gazillion dollars on it. But yeah, we'll see because that's
really the extent of that. There it'll now. And here's
the thing. I saw people posting videos where they're at
like a crower they claim to be to cracker barrel recently,
who knows, maybe it's a video from a year ago,

(01:27:16):
and there's like three seated tables, which if you ever
got a cracker barrel during you know, peak times, clearly
that's not what you expect. Some of these videos though,
based on what they then order, strike me as a
lunch but like not traditional lunchtime lunch. So take what
you see with a grain of salt. However, for those

(01:27:36):
of you who go at a regular time to cracker barrel, maybe,
like I said, we've used the example every Sunday after church,
you guys go to a cracker barrel or maybe once
a month or whatever it is. I am curious apples
to apples comparisons and how it's impacting. Because also remember
we got a lot of friends and neighbors who probably
work at cracker barrel or they work for any of

(01:27:58):
the you know companies that supply cracker barrel. So again
I'm not wishing nastiness on people. I'm just hoping that
they pay attention to how well or how not well
this whole thing went, because again, I also have a
selfish interest. When I want to go to cracker barrel,
It'll be a cracker barrel there, so I can get

(01:28:19):
my cracked potato thing and all the meat and be happy.
I'm very selfish that way, rased agent from the Weather Channel,
equally selfish when he goes out to get himself a
delicious breakfast, which he might be doing right now because
he's not ready to go yet. But what if that
sob does have a big thing a cracker barrel, and
he's not sharing. But you know, so if an anybody

(01:28:42):
did pre or post has little apples to apples comparison,
I would be interested in hearing that. I guess anyway,
Raced agent, what's going on? Sir man to oh, you know,
just just eyeball in the last seventeen minutes of the show.
Technically that makes me happy. Free Zoo the York today, though,
so probably Oh gosh, I got one.

Speaker 10 (01:29:04):
I think I have two?

Speaker 1 (01:29:06):
Do you want one? Ill one to you? No, I'm good.

Speaker 10 (01:29:09):
Usually I have zero. Today for some reason, I have
two hundred more than I normally have. It's crazy, it
ain't right now, it's anarchy anyway. Oh, everybody looking for
the door today next several days.

Speaker 1 (01:29:22):
Kind of been preaching it all week. I really don't
see much changing today.

Speaker 10 (01:29:24):
A little more cloud than we'll have tomorrow, so partial sun,
upper seventies, low eighty, same thing tomorrow, but more sunshine.
So we actually be a better looking day than we're
back to partial sun Thursday. So every other day we're
kind of like Sunday to partly sunny, to Sunday to
partly sunny. So that's what we're gonna do on the weekend.
Looks mostly sunny, big weekend for college football, anything outdoors,

(01:29:47):
you know, we cater to that because that's what we
like of.

Speaker 2 (01:29:49):
What we do.

Speaker 10 (01:29:50):
Case, but you know, anybody being an outdoors beautiful Labor
Day weekend, I think we'll average seventy eight to about
eighty one degrees and upper fifties to low sixties at
night and right now with high pressure in sunny each day, Saturday,
Sunday and Labor Day Monday.

Speaker 1 (01:30:08):
Yeah, so the college college or NFL you're you're like
just going all in college this year, right, Oh, all in.

Speaker 10 (01:30:16):
But I'm trying to keep a low profile right now.
I don't want to get I want to get blowed
out Saturday night and then I gotta go high. So
I'm trying to keep NLP until I got you. Saturday's over.
So all right, listen, you know what happens when expectations
are high, right, yeah, I'll know.

Speaker 1 (01:30:32):
Two games in whether I should just cash the whole
season in and pretend I exactly. We'll find out exactly.
All right, man, have a go on, appreciate it. There
you go, already staging from the Weather Channel. Alrighty, I
guess you know. It is funny to get excited about
Labor Day. So there is that. But any who, unfortunately
get three zoom meetings today and all the rest of
the week. So we'll come back chat with Jeff Bellinger next.

(01:30:55):
Hang on, Jeff Bellinger, Jeff, what's going on? Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:30:57):
Good morning.

Speaker 1 (01:30:58):
Case.

Speaker 13 (01:30:58):
We have a new bat little taking shape between the
White House and the Federal Reserve. President Trump says he
is firing Fed Governor Lisa Cook, who is accused of
submitting fraudulent information on mortgage applications. Cook says she won't
leave stocks retreated in yesterday's trading and Wall Street analysts
say the next potential market mover will come tomorrow. That's

(01:31:19):
when Nvidia posts its quarterly results. The futures suggests we'll
see some modest early losses this morning. Southwest Airlines is
notifying plus size passengers of a new policy. It goes
into effect in January. Travelers who can't fit within the
arm rests of their seats will have to pay for
an extra seat in advance. If the plane is not

(01:31:40):
fully booked by the time of departure, then Southwest will
refund the price of the extra ticket. SpaceX may try
again today for critical test launch of its Starship Rocket.
The launch was postponed for troubleshooting on Sunday and scrubbed
yesterday because of unfavorable weather at the Texas launch site.
AT and T struck a twenty three billion dollar radio

(01:32:01):
spectrum deal with EchoStar. It will add low band and
midband spectrum to AT and t's holdings, covering virtually every
market across the country. AT and T says the deal
strengthens its ability to provide advanced connectivity through five G
and fiber. Echo Star is getting a nice payoff for
spectrum it wasn't using. Bloomberg reported last month the Federal

(01:32:22):
Communications Commission was pressuring the company to either use the
spectrum or sell it. And Casey, if you subscribe to
YouTube streaming video service, you could be about to lose
access to the Fox Sports, business and news channels. The
current carriage deal expires tomorrow. YouTube says Fox wants too
much money for its content. If there's no agreement, the

(01:32:44):
Fox channels will be blacked out.

Speaker 3 (01:32:46):
Casey, oh good.

Speaker 1 (01:32:47):
We played this game off cable now too. Yeah, well
that's fun. The hallmark of the former cable thing is
now come to streaming. All right, thank you, Jeff, Okay, Casey,
talk to you tomorrow. There you go. Jeff Bellonser, Bloomberg News.
By the way, this owns on the board of Governor's
check from the Federal Reserve. Trump fires her and she's like, dupe,
you can't. I'm not fired. How does that work? So

(01:33:10):
if management comes in after that, we got our meeting
after the show today. So if Trevor fires Ross and
I and we just say no, then we do a
show tomorrow. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:33:18):
No, that's once again, it always comes back to this.
For some reason, that is a Seinfeld episode where George
gets fired and he goes, what if I just show up.

Speaker 1 (01:33:25):
The next day and everything is everything assigned?

Speaker 3 (01:33:28):
Yeah? Pretty much.

Speaker 1 (01:33:29):
Yeah, what happened when he showed up tonight.

Speaker 3 (01:33:31):
I don't recall what I'm sure he ended. It was fine,
it was fine.

Speaker 1 (01:33:34):
All right, Well that's they're doing it over at the
Federal Reserve. So this is the mortgage. This is the
alleged mortgage fraud lady, not Jerome Powell. I don't get
too excited there, but yeah, yeah, apparently you can just
apparently you can just be like, uh no and then

(01:33:55):
you're not fired. I had no idea, And you know,
I work in radio. I've seen a lot of people
fire man. Yeah, nobody ever thought to say no.

Speaker 3 (01:34:02):
I've been like, I'm thinking that episode. He shows up
and they're like, you know, we fired you, and he
was like, is that what happened? I thought there was
a misunderstanding, and they're just like, you need to leave.

Speaker 1 (01:34:12):
I can respect the hustle on that man. Yeah, alrighty,
and uh why not let me just throw this story
in here? Do do do do?

Speaker 2 (01:34:23):
Do?

Speaker 4 (01:34:23):
Do?

Speaker 3 (01:34:23):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:34:24):
Where did I put it? Dang it?

Speaker 4 (01:34:26):
All?

Speaker 2 (01:34:26):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:34:26):
Here we go, dude, how'd you like this? How'd you
like this to be what you're known for in the
criminal underworld? Right? Like you got some cool name and
you're a mobster or whatever, or you got some you know,
some hard street name, or you're the guy who, uh,
you know, ripped off all the billionaires. You're burning made
off certain notoriety there because you want to. You know,

(01:34:48):
there is a pecking order and I don't know where
cereal butt sniffer lands, but apparently that's the thing, an
infamous butts sniffer. You know, it's so funny. I used
to call my brother butt sniffer. I had no idea
what it was a job. I just thought I was
assaulting him because that's what brothers do to each other.

(01:35:10):
And he was a butt sniffer. But this guy, he
went pro in butt sniffing. Thirty eight year old Calice
Crowder is charged with a felony after Now, ross, if
you were to go sniff butts, what store would you
choose to do your butt sniffing in?

Speaker 8 (01:35:25):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:35:26):
Would it be Dollar General or Macy's Probably Macy's, yeah,
or in this case Nordstrom. So this guy is a high.

Speaker 3 (01:35:33):
End but sniffer, A nice department store.

Speaker 1 (01:35:35):
Yeah, yeah, you want the you want the the perfumed
butt sniffing. You don't want to go you don't want
to go into a dollar store in Alabama in August.
You know what I'm saying, that's not gonna be prime
butt sniffing. Uh So. By the way, so he's charge
of the felony now being hell without bail, and that
is largely due to the fact he was just paroled
at the time of his arrest. Ross, do you want

(01:35:56):
to know what he was paroled from.

Speaker 3 (01:35:58):
I'm gonna take a leap and say this guy is
a serial butt sniffer.

Speaker 1 (01:36:02):
Correct, Yeah, he was paroled after an initial a previous
butt sniffing incident. Uh, that one. That one took place
at a Walmart. Though again, you're gonna sniff butts probably
want to go Nords, Drums, not Walmart. Let's just be
honest here. Even if you like the Walmart, that's that's

(01:36:26):
not that's not the high cotton a butt sniffing right there, man.

Speaker 2 (01:36:30):
Uh and uh.

Speaker 1 (01:36:32):
He also had a previous previous butt sniffing arrest before that.
All right, Ross, you want to guess the third butt
sniffing location. It's in between a Walmart and a nord
Stroums in between. No, God, no heltho would that just
smell like garlic? But all the butts? I mean that
might be okay, Barnes and Noble.

Speaker 3 (01:36:54):
That does not smell like Tuscany.

Speaker 1 (01:36:55):
Yeah, it does not smell like Tuscany. Yeah, let's see here.
Did you have one other? Oh, he's got an and
then he had a fourth one at a target. At
least I am good for passing it around there, bro. Yeah,
I think maybe all to Beauty would be a good one.
Probably not at a drug store, especially in the aisle

(01:37:16):
with the upset stomachs. Probably want to stay away from that.
So I don't know. I'm not a cereal butt sniffer.
