Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott vordiez, we'll start off this hour of the program
with owls and herpee monkeys not together. It would be weird.
Not yet, not to my knowledge. There was a report yesterday,
and as I got to the end of the show yesterday,
(00:22):
I was like, wow, we got all carried away on
the Gary News, which is fine, understandable. I forgot to
get to the herpe monkey story. And then I tuned
in to Glenn Beck last night here on eleven ten kfab.
The first thing he's talking about is this pile of
herpee monkeys. Let's see here a truck carrying twenty one
monkeys to it. Wasn't that a Brad Pitt movie. A
(00:44):
truck carrying one days, Oh, it was seven monthy eight days,
seven monkeys, twenty one monkeys to a testing facility and Florida,
Florida monkeys. A truck carrying twenty one monkeys to a
testing facility in Florida overturned on Tuesday and set several
(01:06):
of the animals. Free monkeys everywhere. And if you think
that sounds fun and delightful like a barrel of monkeys, no,
because the Jasper County Sheriff's Office in Mississippi, where the
monkeys were coming from and then being transported over to Florida.
They warned that the monkeys could be a aggressive towards humans.
(01:34):
Why you want to attack me? I just want to
give you a hug. I just want to feed you
a banana. Can you wear this hat? I have an
organ grind during the car. Hold it still. I'll be
right back. This could be a show. They said monkeys
could be aggressive towards humans. They could weigh as much
as forty pounds. I don't know why we're fat shaming
these little monkeys. But here's the big part. They carry
(01:58):
infectious diseases like COVID. COVID monkeys have these these the
COVID monkeys. The Wicked Witch of Mississippi released the COVID monkeys.
Haven't these monkeys got all the vaccines? I mean, my goodness,
(02:22):
you've had four almost five years of vaccines that these
monkeys could get. They've got cards saying they do. It's
like ninety vaccines. We haven't been vaccinating these monkeys. It's dangerous.
These monkeys, these COVID vaccine denying monkeys. That's they're vax deniers.
They're science deniers. They are so they could carry COVID,
(02:44):
they could carry hepatitis, and they could carry herpes. Tulane University,
which was providing the research monkeys, said that they were
dangerous and we all need to be careful no matter
where you are, no matter how safe you think you
(03:05):
are at night here sleeping in Omaha, Nebraska, you could
be attacked by a monkey with herpes. So they said,
just be careful. Watch out. We got herpee monkeys running around. Now,
why and how exactly should I be worried about getting
(03:25):
herpes from a monkey? Anyone want to do that math?
You want to draw me a picture as to how
that might happen? Why and how should I be worried
about you? I mean sure. There was a monkey with
(03:46):
obvious cold sores who asked if he could borrow some
lipbomb because he was getting a little dry. I said,
that is not a problem. I'm happy to share. Lent
him some of my ointment bombs lineaments, and he used him.
I mean he didn't even like put it on his
finger and then on his lip. He just put it
(04:07):
on his lip, and then I put it back in
my pocket, and later I put it on my lip.
But I don't think that that's I don't think that's
a problem. Well that was yesterday's news. Herpee monkeys on
the loose in Florida. Now, sheriff's deputies were called out.
They found some of these monkeys, and they shot and
(04:28):
killed the five remaining escaped monkeys. They're like, all right,
that's that's it. These monkeys they got to go. We
don't want them to give everyone in Florida more herpes,
I mean herpes. So we've got to we got to
take care of these little creatures. And so they shot
him and killed them. And then the people in the
(04:52):
science lab that let these monkeys loose, probably on orders
from doctor Anthony Fauci, Oh, we've got the we've got disease.
We'll let it out. That's what we do. Sorry, they said, actually,
we hate that. It got to this point. People are
(05:12):
wrongly told that the animals carried multiple infectious diseases. So
the driver mistakenly, I guess it was the driver who
mistakenly informed deputies, Hey, you got to get these monkeys.
They're infected with COVID nineteen, hepatitis and herpes A one
(05:33):
or whatever. Not a doctor. Yeah, I know that, the driver.
Why the doctor why the driver had in his head.
Oh no, there's twenty one Rees's monkeys that just overturned.
He probably he didn't know Reese's monkeys from Reese's pieces.
By the way, you should, especially since tomorrow's Halloween, you
should know the difference between if someone's heading If someone's
(05:59):
heading out Reese's peanut butter cups, that's great. If someone's
handing out Reesei's monkeys, caution, that's all I'm saying. I'm
not a doctor, I'm not a driver of herpie monkeys.
I'm just saying you might want to exercise some caution
on that. So the driver is like, hey, if you
can find those monkeys, kill them immediately. They're gonna give
(06:22):
everyone herpes. Well, how why is any Hey, don't ask questions.
This is not a time for questions. This is a
time for action. And the deputies are like, I see them,
and they just dispatched with these monkeys. And then later
the sheriff of Jasper County, Florida says, well, as it
turns out, I hate that it got to the point
(06:42):
that it did. Sorry, right now, anti law enforcement people
are like, see, they just shoot first and ask questions later.
Sheriff says, we were told that they were highly infectious
and dangerous to the public. We reacted on the information
and we were given at the time. But we're gonna
(07:02):
start looking at cdl's a little closer now, that's right.
Oh my gosh. The Babylon Bee had a horrible headline
yesterday that made me laugh so hard. Governor Newsom, who's
been accused now of California's handing out cdl's commercial driver's
licenses to illegal immigrants, says Governor Newsom continues to endanger
(07:23):
the public by handing out drivers' licenses to women. They
come on, it's just that's funny, too easy, come on,
too good. I know. Sorry the now they said, we
don't think that there is any danger to the public,
but officially there's one monkey still at large. They said
(07:51):
they have no intention of killing the remaining escape monkey.
So if he's able to navigate law enforcement, the Carolina
or the Florida panthers. They got panthers in Florida, snakes,
Florida man who just might decide to that looks like
(08:15):
good eating, you know, bobcats, alligators, There's any number of
things down there. If that monkey can survive. I wish
it well. Go monkey, run, run like the wind, poor
little monkey. Do you know what my earliest memory is?
(08:36):
I was what of life? I was two years old
and we were on a trip to see my grandparents
down in Sun City, Arizona, And there was a zoo
down there that at the time you could actually go
in the monkey cage and they would crawl all over you.
(08:56):
So they thought, hey, our son is the same size
as these monkeys. Let's see what happens. And I was
in a monkey cage, and I have a very vivid
memory of being held by my grandmother with monkeys crawling
on us. That's kind of an indelible memory that doesn't
leave you. I remember that. And I remember on that
(09:18):
same trip in a hotel bed sleeping in bed between
my parents, which was really cute. Mostly though I was
just there just to be a blocker. I was like, Hey,
none of that funny stuff, thank you. Craig All right,
(09:38):
audience of one, only if you're wearing headphones turned up
too loud, can you occasionally hear the laugh of Craig
Evans and the KFAB newsroom, who was probably laughing at
something else. Terry Lahy was tickling him. So, monkey, are
you ticklish here? Yeah? Let me know when the show
(10:04):
goes off the rails today. I want it to happen
before Chris Bakrick comes in the studio. Who will be
here after ten? Up?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Next?
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I promised you monkeys and owls. That was monkeys next owls.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Scott voices News Radio eleven tenaby.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Regarding the Reese's monkeys and my attempts to try and
capture one, put a hat on it and engage in
a little street what do they call buskers? Action there
where I got an organ grinder? Tom said, I'm more
worried that you grind so many organs that you keep
a machine to do so in your car for any
(10:45):
potential monkey encounters.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Gotta be prepared.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
You never know when you might need to grind an organ.
Right moving on? Okay, Uh, I'm just listening to Craig
over here. He's enjoying himself immensely this morning. Like I said,
you never know when you might Let's move on. Uh.
(11:14):
Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana is one of the more
and since Ben Sass left the Senate, John Kennedy might
be the most entertaining senator with a microphone in front
of him. The topic yesterday was owls. The Biden administration
(11:35):
had a proposal that called for culling that's aka, exterminating
large groups of non native barred owls. You know what
a barred owl is. It's a it's it's that's a
good story. Yeah. Picture, yeah, picture an owl. It's one.
It's an owl. So non native barred owls, They're like,
(11:57):
we got to exterminate those owls because the not native
bard owls in the Pacific Northwest are endangering the northern
spotted owl. Why they've decided that one owl gets to
live more than the other, and why owls are either
killing or destroying the habitat or food source or whatever
(12:19):
form the native spotted owl. I don't know, but I
know that I learned a lot yesterday in hearing the
Senate argument of John Kennedy of Louisiana.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
I want to talk today, mister President, about owls.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Owls.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
They're nineteen species, species or kinds.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Of owls, species of an owl?
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Did you know that nineteen?
Speaker 1 (12:46):
No.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
I want to talk about two of them, the spotted
owl and the barred owl.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Yeah. They both look about the same. They look like.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Owls R E. D.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
By the way, he's up there, flanked by pictures of
both owls, and on his left there's a picture of
Elmer Fudd. And I'm not even joking to talk.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Today, mister President, and you'll understand what I mean in
a moment about the federal government's proclivity, repeated proclivity to
do the dumbest thing possible that won't.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Work every time, every topic.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Now, the federal government, the federal government which can't even
deliver the mail when it has the address right there
on the front.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Wow, an unnecessary shot at the United States Postal Service.
Till him out. So Emerynger yesterday broadcasting live at the
Peenie Park IV, and they had him set up at
the counter that had previously been used for people to
drop off packages and do Postal Service stuff at High V,
which is no longer the case. We covered this week's ago.
(14:06):
The Postal Service decided they didn't have the staff to
deal with all the different HIGHV locations, even though it
was super great for their customers, so they shut it down.
But it's still there and people don't know this. So
Emory is standing there next to a sign that says
the USPS will no longer accept packages at this location.
And then right behind that sign, kfab's Emory Songer trying
(14:29):
to do a talk show. I'm in there, and a
woman is staring at the sign, staring at the slot
where she would drop an envelope for a package that
is taped over. And then she's arguing with Emory, who
is on the air talking about I don't know, and
she's like, why am I what am I supposed to
do with this? What happened? Why did you do this?
(14:51):
It was, Oh my gosh, so funny, so funny. All right,
so an unnecessary shot at the Postal service there by
John ca nnity, please sir continue about species of.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Owls and more specifically the Department of Interior.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Right across the hall from the Department of Exterior.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
And this rule says that unless Congress stop stops them, they're.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Going to hire hunters Elmer Fudd, he's pointing to the
picture right here, to kill.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Four hundred and fifty three thousand barred owls.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
We know them all by name.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
They're only four million in the United States, but the
Department of an Interior wants to kill four hundred and
fifty three thousand mama barn owls, daddy barred owls, and
baby barred.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Owls, cousin bard owls kissing cousin barn.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Owls because of the Department of Interior thinks says that
the bard owl is a better hunter than the spotted out.
The Apartment of Venture is not saying the barred out
is eating the spotted out.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
The Apartment of Interiors.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
They're saying that the barred out is hurting the spotted out.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
I think thank you for the clarification that an owl
not known to be uh a cannibal is eating other owls,
both owls the same size. Though I have to admit
when I first heard like we gotta kill one owl
to protect another one are what the owl? Are they
(16:46):
eating each other? Wildlife?
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Man?
Speaker 1 (16:50):
It's crazy? What was that family? Family Guy? I think
it was Family Guy had a a spoof sea on
Fox News or on Fox Television called it was just
animals attacking people and the name of the show was
Damn Nature, You Scary. So it's not impossible, I guess,
(17:14):
to think that owls might be cannibalizing each other and
we need to protect one owl by killing the cannibal.
Owls at the Pacific Northwest. All right, another less than
a minute here, Senator John Kennedy, Louisiana, flanked by pictures
of owls and Elmer Fudden.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
The Department of vent here says it wants to kill
over ten percent of the bard owl population because the
barn owl is a better hunter than the spotted owl,
and they want to give They want to tip the
scales of nature in favor of the spotted owl, even
though the spotted owl is not on the endangered species list.
(17:58):
My resolution, which will be voted on to more, will
stop this nonsense.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
He called it d EI for owls. Uh, this plan,
and it's proof. I think I have that clip as well,
d EI for owls with d I for owls. See,
I told you d EI for owls. The this isn't
(18:30):
actually a pretty interesting case because why would you do this,
Why would any of this have any For some reason,
even though none of these owls are on the endangered
species list, loggers support this plan. The none of the
owls are really affecting the the environment so much. But
(18:52):
the loggers are worried that if if, if the spotted
owl ends up being endangered, that's going to restrict their
land use for logging. So they said, look do we
got to do to protect whatever owl allows us to
still do our job. And the Trump administration supports the loggers.
(19:14):
The Biden administration was trying to work with the environmentalists
who wanted to protect the owls. So you have the
environmentalists and the loggers, and the Biden administration and the
Trump administration all on the same side of an issue
against Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana, who clarified, this is
(19:38):
DEI for owls and they aren't eating each other. That's
entertainment right there. They had a vote. The measure to
go along with John Kennedy to stop all this failed
by a vote of twenty five to seventy two.
