Scott's Windier Than Last Night

And it was REALLY windy last night!  Today's topics ranged from "the end of COVID" to Lucy's new Trump clock to a DC font battle and more.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott vor Lucy. I don't know when or how you sleep,
and for a variety of reasons. Number one, your schedule,
Number two the immorality on parade. So I don't know
how you sleep at night. You hear that phrase, that
phrase a lot, and uh, I've never found anyone for
whom it applies more than you. But were you just

(00:24):
my way of saying good morning, nice to.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
See you, No wonder you don't have a lot of friends?

Speaker 1 (00:30):
To say a lot implies that I have some. Oh
I have no friends.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Oh well, then not really explains it.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Yeah, and I don't need them. It's like, hey, you're
not breaking up with me. I'm breaking up with you,
Like we're not going out. You know, that's been my
whole land, the whole relationship history. Were you able to
sleep last night with that wind?

Speaker 2 (00:54):
Just?

Speaker 1 (00:54):
It was hissy? It was a hissy nasty wind. Trump,
This is a nasty wind. No wind has ever been
more nasty than this, a nasty little wind. And we
had a little Christmas inflatable in the yard. Munchkins are
playing with it now gone.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
Well, you asked me if I could sleep, had you
know I stayed awake just to watch the Santas and
the Reindeers and the Frosties.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Their kids are the window Christmas has come early, Santa's coming.
I see Santa is Reindeer and whatever. We're Some of
the inflatables are I think they're absolutely asinine and frankly
blasphemous with the true meaning of the Christmas season. That said,

(01:43):
there are some that are pretty fun. I saw a
giant skeleton emerging from someone's front yard Christmas Halloween decoration.
You have the torso and head of a skeleton, and
then you know two over here and there you got
the arms also coming out. So this skeleton is emerging
from its grave and it's wearing a Santa Claus hat.

(02:06):
So I looked at that. I just enjoyed it. You know, whatever,
whatever floateth, thy boteth. But the inflatables, if you tried
to have them going last night when that wind was happening, Nope,
they're in odds.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Yeah, but if the little valve was open, then the
wind made sure that there was more air in them.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Right, Yeah, that little Yoda wearing a Santa Claus hat.
Inflatable is that used to be three foot tall is
now matumbo sized.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Stretching the limits. I feel it.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
It was such a hissy, nasty win. I couldn't sleep.
And then my wife woke up and she's like, I
can't sleep with that wind. It just had this this
hiss to it.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
And so we is wrong with your windows and your
doors and your walls. I didn't hear a thing.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
I think it's and see this is when I said
I don't know how you sleep at night. I just
I mean in terms of I think it has to
do with a tree in proximity to your bedroom window.
And of course.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Booze, but niel Man, I'm out. Yeah, three days.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
I like to you know, cut my Nike Will with
eggnog this time of year festive. Well, this is the
time of year. I I segue from Nike Will and
apple cider to Nike Will and eggnog. But we've got
this tree just outside our bedroom window. Because there's a

(03:45):
guy who pays good money to spy on us. And
you know what we we part of the gig gag
is you know, we look the other way and pretend
like we don't see him, like oh, I'm taking off
my shirt, you know, and you know, it's it's fine,
we may It's it's like an only fans thing we
were except not online.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
It's a limited to just the one guy.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
Yeah, it's fine, it's a only fan. It's a singular experience.
But that wind going through those branches in that tree
just made for a horrible hissy sound. So I told
my wife, has like turn on the TV and just
find find something soothing to listen to.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
So you might be right about that, because always Bob's Burger.
Always fall asleep with that. Really yeah every night. Yeah,
I've seen every episode and I'll watch them all again.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
She turned on some channel that had British people talking
about renovating castles.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Oh, I like that too.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
And then I fell asleep and then I woke up,
and I woke up and I just hear this.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
Well.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
I used to hang out with Hefner. We had people
coming in and out of the Playboy mansion. I'm like, what,
I open an eye and look at the TV. It's
the show where people go into the pawn shop and
they're trying to convince the people what I have is
really impressive. This was her Playboy Bunny outfit for being
Playmate of the Year nineteen seventy six and talking about

(05:03):
all the experiences of the Playboy mansion. How it was
It just a big sorority in there was a lot
of fun, and she wants to sell her playboy bunny outfit.
I turned it off and I didn't wait to see
whether she was talking to some lady. But it was
the same. I don't know if it's the same show
or what, but yeah, I was then I was up
toss and turning thinking about her that.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
It was not my bunny or the lady. She was
talking to the bunny.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
So who, by the way, still even though she play
Made of the Year seventy six probably is now about
seventy six, looks great. So she's a bi centennial bunny
good jeans. Yeah, it's like that old lady still is
pretty smoking hot. So that was my night. That's how

(05:51):
That's how my night went. And now you have to
deal with it here for the next couple of hours.
On news radio eleven ten kfa B, as I mentioned
about twenty minutes ago, got a call from the judge because,
as Lucy has been reporting in her timesaver traffic updates
throughout kfab's morning news, their power outages all around town

(06:12):
and they still don't have power at the Sarpie County Courthouse.
And if they don't have power, they're not gonna light
candles and say you're guilty, you're guilty, like it'll all
be thrown out. Like you couldn't even see them by client,
it was dark in there. How do you know it
was him? And so they canceled everything at the Sarpie
County Courthouse today no power.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
That'd be kind of cool though, to do it all
by candlelight. They could put powdered wigs on. It could
be like seventeen hundreds again, right, how.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Did they No one was ever how I was just
thinking here, how did they ever administer justice back in
the old timing times before electricity in a much better way?
It was hanging, not like twenty years from now when
you've run out of appeals, Like in twenty minutes, let's go.
It's just enough time to tell everyone to come to

(06:59):
the town square to watch the hanging.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
By the way, there's still about thirty six hundred without power,
and Sarpy did get hit a little harder than most areas.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Golly, we we panic about our kids being exposed to
whether it's too much on social media or even when
we were growing up. People thought that the you know, bugs,
Bunny cartoons, Tom and Jerry Wiley, Coyote, that kind of
stuff was too violent. It wasn't that long ago in
our the generational history of our families here in America
and even over in Europe, where they would just take

(07:31):
the kids out and go, hey, we're having a hang
in today.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
That's true. That's how that I shouldn't last.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
That's that's how we got the time. You know, by well,
the sun is at its highest point in the sky,
that's noon, and that's when the hanging is. So that's
what got people obsessed with.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Time because of hanging.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
Yeah, you don't want to you don't want to get
is that sun almost and it's apex in the sky
or is it ten minutes or so? Until you know,
I just go down to the town square now, I
don't want to miss the hanging. They're hanging Old Roy today. Well,
the crime was less after the hanging for that particular suspect.

(08:19):
It went down dramatically. All right. So, speaking of which,
I have great news for you ladies and gentlemen. My
name is Scott Vorhees. There's Lucy Chapman. This is News
Radio eleven ten kfab and I am proud to announce
to you this morning here on the tenth day of December,
year of our Lord, twenty twenty five. It seemed and

(08:41):
I I'm cautionary when I announced this, but it seems
like we may have beaten COVID. Congratulations everybody, we did it.
This is absolutely amazing and unfortunately for a school in Iowa,
not great for them. In Appanoose County, the multen Udale

(09:04):
School District set about thirty percent of their students and
staff are out sick with the flu, and so because
they have so many people out sick with the flu,
they just canceled all classes for the next couple of days.
They have to fully sanitize everything, and even all the
athletic events scheduled for last night and then presumably tonight

(09:25):
as well all canceled because there are so many students
and faculty members out with the flu. And the Iowa
Department of Health and Human Services has all of their
guidelines and tips how to stay healthy, things like avoiding
social gatherings, make sure and wash your hands, and if

(09:45):
you're sick, stay home. Now it's interesting because the flu
kills in some years tens of thousands of people across America.
Every single year, tens of thousands of people die from
or with the flu complications with influenza ten tens of thousands. Yes,

(10:07):
and twenty eighteen in the United States, fifty one thousand
people died of the flu. That's the high point of
the last decade. Amazingly, though, you know, we hit a
low point on flu deaths. Do you want to guess
when that was?

Speaker 2 (10:22):
You know, I know.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
I can't even with a straight face. Hit the button.
Sounds like Lucy has a conspiracy theory. It's not a
conspiracy theory, Oh it isn't. No, Suddenly it went from
fifty one thousand people dead of the flu, which I'm
not laughing at that. I'm not making fun of that that.

(10:46):
You know, it could be that a loved one in
your family died from the flu a few years ago,
and we're not making a joke out of that. What
I am pointing out is that twenty twenty to twenty
twenty one into early twenty twenty two, flu deaths in
this country went down to just about nothing. Twenty they

(11:09):
hit what was described here in the graph I looked
at as a low point because the bottom of it
was five thousand. Now I think it was probably even
lower than that. It went from fifty some to five
thousand people dead from the flu in that twenty twenty
twenty twenty one into twenty twenty two. Those flu seasons
it bottomed out. Now that's because we had covid, which

(11:35):
is completely different from the flu. See, the flu is
a respiratory virus that gives you body aches, fever, cough.
The show like what kind of like this show? Is
that what you said that I step on your punchline?
And so that's the flu. Covid totally different. It's a

(11:58):
respiratory virus that body aches, fever, cough.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Wait a minute, which is.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Also separate then other coronaviruses like the common cold, which
let's seemly checked my note, respiratory virus. It causes body aches, fever, cough.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
What does the chicken flu give you?

Speaker 1 (12:23):
That gives you a wattle? Well, that's a turkey flu.
That's where you've got. The chicken flu is where you
have the body aches and a fever and a cough.
And also you have to eat gravel to help you digest.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
It keeps moving your feet on the ground.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
There's a digestive component to a weird Yeah, and then
you've got the boogie woogie flu, for which still, even
though it's been around in our culture for approximately sixty years,
there's still no cure and no one's even working on.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
It, and they shouldn't.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
Yeah, it's particularly deadly when you get it in combination
with the rock in pneumonia.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
I think somebody messed up. What do you mean, I
think somebody messed up and did not think about releasing
those numbers. How the conspiracy theorists would just be sitting
back saying.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
Duh, well, you'll be happy to know. Oh, flu deaths
are back up. We're now you know this last year,
a year ago, the flu deaths were back up to
about thirty thousand in America. So they've been climbing. They
hit that peak there in twenty eighteen. Over the last
decade drop down to next to nothing when COVID was like,

(13:40):
we'll take it from here. And then obviously COVID's completely gone.
No one has it anymore, no one's worried about it,
and the flu deaths are tacking back up now. I
don't know, if you're fluent in sarcasm, what I'm saying
is not COVID is fake and everyone overreacted. I think
the reaction the two weeks to flatten the curve. Remember that,

(14:04):
I think that was perfectly justified. At the time, the
information was is that this COVID, this coronavirus was similar
to things like SARS. Remember that there was another one,
you know, like that these levels of coronavirus that in

(14:29):
China had a morbidity rate somewhere around ten to thirteen percent.
So when suddenly you're faced with as the president of
the United States, that was Trump, remember him, people were
telling him like, look, this is kind of like a SARS.

(14:49):
And based on the short amount of information we have
about those who contracted SARS, a type of coronavirus, we
filled like like thirteen percent of the people who got
this di from it. Are we willing to have ten
to thirteen percent of Americans suddenly die? And now that
can you I mean, you're faced with that information. Now

(15:14):
that information was accurate at the time. I don't mean
to do a whole history on COVID and so forth.
But also SARUS was such a small thing and they
didn't fully do testing on everybody to see how many
people as in the case of COVID, had it but
didn't even know they had it. And so that's initially

(15:34):
what they thought. This coronavirus was going to be, just
wiping out ten percent of the population. Obviously, you've got
to deal with that now once they realize, oh, well,
we think the morbidity rate with sarus is probably much
much much less. Is because that's what we're learning about
COVID now that everyone's getting tested and so forth. There
then suddenly, from a science standpoint, it could have been like,

(15:59):
all right, we can go to tips if you're six,
stay home, wash your hands, don't cough in people's faces,
you know that kind of thing. But people didn't do
that because it was an election year and we had
something we could seize upon and try and hang around
the president's neck as he's letting people die, and so,
all right, you know all that stuff. People were saying,

(16:22):
at the time, are you sure that some of the
people dying from COVID don't have the flu? Are we
testing all this stuff? Do we know all this stuff?
And it was considered rude to ask somehow, you were
a science denier to even ask about any of this stuff.

(16:43):
You weren't allowed. If you posted anything on social media
like what I'm saying right now, you would be banned
from social media. This is all stuff we went through
just you know, four or five years ago. So now
when you've got thirty percent of students and faculty members
that this school district, not just one school, but a
whole school district in Iowa are out with the flu,

(17:07):
now it suddenly, even though the flu kills people, tens
of thousands of people die because of the flu every
single year, Suddenly it's like, well, you know, just avoid
social gatherings if you're sick, try and stay home, drink
lots of fluids, drink Nike will and ignog, and just
try and stay home and get your rest. You know,

(17:29):
suddenly it's gone back to here's some helpful tips to
try and stay healthy. Why when we were faced with
the same information on COVID, why did you still have
people saying you your office, your church, your school can't open,
We can't have sporting events. You have to walk this

(17:50):
way down the grocery style aisle, grocery store aisle. You
have to wear a mask. Even if you're alone by
yourself in your car, you've got to wear a mask. Oh,
you mean, like one of the real respiratory masks, the
ones that really really work. Now, just any old bandana
you can find, put that on, just to show us
that you're complaining. So because we don't have mandates, now

(18:15):
when you have all these people sick, I think this
is reason to celebrate. We have beaten COVID. It apparently
doesn't exist anymore. Congratulations. You must have all gotten that
vaccine and followed all the recommendations. It's all gone, everybody,
We won.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
Do you have an answer to your question?

Speaker 1 (18:36):
What was my question?

Speaker 2 (18:38):
Well, there were several.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
I hope I made a point. I don't know what
my question was.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Yeah, you did, absolutely, But I think a couple of
things need to be addressed. First of all, when you
talk about the social distancing and staying home that first
couple of weeks, two weeks, ten days in the spread
or just stop the spread. Look at the timeline on
that though. That was in March, so this was the
end of flu season. So trying to connect this with

(19:05):
the same kinds of things that we would do to
keep flues away we were at the end of that.
I will always say COVID is real a disease or
an infection was released on the world. I won't deny that,
but it's not all that they said that it was.
And as far as why would they continue with all

(19:27):
of this, no games, no social events. It was a
test in control. How can the world control its population?
Each one of the heads of state, the monarchies, the presidents,
how can they control the people? And let's see how
we can now that we're on this road, let's see
what we can do.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
Sounds like Lucy has a conspiracy theory, but this is
not the weirdest one you've ever had. Okay, I'm not
arguing with you. I'm throwing it to a Fox News
update next, Scott, I was going to take a break here,
but let's just keep going. Why not music ivyb Hey's
Scott Vorhis with Lucy Chapman here on eleven ten kfab

(20:10):
here's something else that's just downright phony. The not what
you just said that we were talking earlier about how
we sarcastically now have defeated COVID since all these people
at the school district in Iowa, they shut down the
molten Udale School District in Apanouz County, thirty percent of
students and staff are out sick, and it's with the flu.

(20:32):
COVID's not even a whisper in the story, So apparently
we've defeated it, and flu deaths are back up. Flu
deaths bottomed out to nearly nothing during COVID. See, I
thought we'd beaten the flu there, but apparently no. COVID
was like, nah, I'm stronger and tougher. I'm responsible for
all this. And you're fluent in sarcasm, so I hope

(20:54):
you're picking up what I'm putting down. Here's something else fake,
Lucy stopped me. If you've heard this one before, the
some people in the northern United States could get a
real treat tonight. The Northern Lights could be visible son now,
so we can see the fake stuff to our friends

(21:15):
in this says the best states with the best chance
of visible auroras include Alaska. Alaska.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Let's go.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
I thought you could see the Northern lights in Alaska anytime.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
I think that's right, Well, not anytime. I mean, they
have to be there.

Speaker 1 (21:32):
Probably northern Alaska. You probably see them during the day.
Isn't it all just hinterland up there? There's just nothing
but moose and eskimo.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
Those are some big moose though.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
Yeah, my wife said, the next the next big trip
she wants to take, she wants to go to Alaska.
She wants to ride a moose.

Speaker 2 (21:49):
It's better than riding a bear.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
I guess Alaska. Then it says Idaho, Maine, Michigan, New York,
Washington State, Wisconsin, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Well, we
don't get to see the fake northern lights in Nebraska again,
so don't waste your time. But to our friends listening
to us in the great white north of South Dakota,

(22:12):
don't bother totally fake. It's a complete waste of time.
I'm still I will never get over the level of
disappointment standing out there in a field a bunch of
other people pulled off the side of the road somewhere
between Omaha and Blair, like, this is the way? Did
this see the northern lights?

Speaker 2 (22:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (22:32):
And we hear all the great pictures on social media
that were totally AI fake enhanced with your phone or whatever.
Faker bunch of phonies. Ah, you and you dupe me.
Y'all posted your pictures and all I saw all that
day was it's so beautiful. Changed my life. I feel
like I've had a real epiphany, like, well, I want
an epiphany, and so I went out there and I

(22:54):
got Jack Swatch. Try even looking through my phone like
little haze of green. I think that was just my
phone sick of sitting out there waiting for something to
happen that never happened. That's right, I brought back the
rant on the Northern Lights. Merry Christmas. Gary's last day
hosting the Morning Show full time is Friday. What, Yeah,

(23:17):
I know, it's what stunning.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
I'm just hearing about this. Yes, well, I'm very busy.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Need to know basis. So we've got obviously we want
to we're trying to bridge that gap. I guess between
treating it like this is the last time you'll ever
hear Gary and so we have to unload the barrel
of celebratory guests and proclamations and all this stuff during

(23:49):
this one time. But the truth is he's still gonna
pop on here plenty of times over the next year. Because,
as Senator Ricketts said when he was a guest with
Gary Jim this morning, Gary, you can't make it one
more year to fifty. He is going to make it
one more year to fifty. In some capacity on this
radio station. Now, when he started here on KFAB, it

(24:10):
was in you know, bit things here and there. He
wasn't the guy here on the station. He had to
build to that. It took him a couple of weeks.
But you know, so then he's he's now ramping back
his schedule to where he won't be on all morning
every day, but you'll still hear a lot of him

(24:32):
here and there over the next year. So he because
he does it's important to him to officially hit fifty
years and not just have it be like a hey,
why not, let's give it to him anyway, it's he
wants to work for it this next year, just not
very hard. So like next year when he hits fifty,
that's gonna be a big deal. That's going to be

(24:53):
a big event. You're invited, you know, well, we'll just
details to come. But so I'm working on all that stuff,
and my wife apparently just send me a text message
suggesting that our Christmas plans have been completely blown up
by my son's basketball schedule. Yeah, well that's gonna Why.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
Don't you just move your Christmas party to the basketball game.
I mean, I'm assuming you're having a party because I
haven't heard about it. Well, no, I never get invited.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
Well it would be you're invited to join her family
in Wichita, which is where we were going to be
on all day on the twenty.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
Sixth, out of town.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
Yeah, and he's apparently got a game on the twenty.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
Six Why not why here by himself?

Speaker 1 (25:38):
Why not schedule a day the day I schedule a
game the day after Christmas?

Speaker 2 (25:44):
So why doesn't he talk to his his teammates and
just get them all to forfeit.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
Well, hopefully they'll all be sick with the flu by
then and they just cancel it, like the school district
in Iowa. Okay, speaking of athletic competition, Lucy is not
into sports ball. Do you know the name Martina Nevratalova?
Of course from golf? Good guess, but incorrect. Really you

(26:16):
don't know who that is?

Speaker 2 (26:17):
Yes, of course I do prove it.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
Tennis tennis, tennis legend, Martina Navratolova.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
She's an angry woman.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
Well she is today before Well she I don't think
that she was angry a couple of years ago when
she was on the more right side of the political spectrum.
Now she's gone left, but not on everything. Here's why
she's in the news today. She's lighting up President Trump

(26:49):
and the Americans who support him or capitulate to him,
as she said. She says, I defected from a totalitarian regime,
having moved to the United States from Czechoslovakia as a
teenager in the mid seventies. And she says, I defected
from a totalitarian regime, and like, hell, am I going

(27:10):
to be cowed again and have to be careful about
what I say. I know firsthand what it looks like
and feels like to live where you can't speak your
mind or be put in prison for political opinions. All right,
let's check the tote board. How many people have been
put in prison for political prisons in America? Yeah, I

(27:32):
didn't think so. Yeah, But they go after their political
opponents and they rack up a bunch of fake charges
and try, oh, like they did to Trump.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
That's actually not wrong.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
And and other people in the Trump sphere, Flynn Stone, others.
So yeah, yeah, both sides are guilty of it. But
she says she's proud to call the United States her home,
but embarrassed for what Trump is doing to our country.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
What is he doing? She doesn't say, even how can
you be angry you can't name it.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
She's seems to be drawing a parallel between the totalitarianism
of the regime that she saw in Europe when she
was a teenager and what Trump is doing today. I
don't see what. I don't see that parallel. May I
see what people say about it, but I don't see

(28:33):
the reality of it.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
Well, maybe she's just mixed up, and she thinks she's
talking about England because they are resting down doors for
social posts. Oh sure, that's not happening here.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
She says, speaking out it's the patriotic thing to do
when you see something wrong, don't be afraid. So she's
saying all the stuff she says. She's ticked off about
people capitulating to Trump. She thinks he's an absolute embarrassment
and it makes her embarrassed for this country. And to
completely blow up her point. She has not been arrested,

(29:07):
She has not been deplatformed from any social media. There
aren't networks saying hey, we can't put you on to
talk about this. There's too much pressure from the big
guy in the White House. It's true that Trump is like, yeah,
Kimmell should be gone. Yeah, okay, is Kimmell gone? No,
he just signed a new contract. So what I mean

(29:28):
just because Trump registers an opinion about something, Because this
just in Trump has an opinion about everything, doesn't mean
that all these things change, or anyone's put in jail
or it's totalitarianism because of all this stuff. He's direct
in traffic the way that he said he would if
he got elected. He got elected, he's doing the stuff
he said he'd do. I don't know what about this

(29:51):
is shocking or confusing to people. But the interesting thing
about Martina is well, i'll tell you that next Scott
Gordies News Radio eleven. Speaking of President Trump, Lucy noted
in the Minards ad in our local paper today, they've

(30:13):
got a lot of savings at Minards.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
No, don't, don't say it. You won't.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
You don't want someone to, you know, buy it and
it sells out before.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
You're able to get you you can tell them tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
I'm saying it. Don't the garden rake backscratchers.

Speaker 2 (30:29):
Now, I won't be able to get one.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
The garden rake backscratcher is eight dollars right now. I
don't know if that's right now or if these deals
are like take effect here. I'm just looking at this,
and then underneath that, No, underneath.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
That, you're gonna say it. Whoever's going to buy one,
buy me one two.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
You can buy anything like this online you want. It's
right below the garden rake backscratcher and right next to
the two pack indoor outdoor snowball launchers, also eight dollars
to two pack. Here's the ten inch talking wall clock.
It's the Trump make America Great Again ten inch talking

(31:10):
wall clock, says social media sensation here from Trump every hour.
Their price is nineteen ninety nine minards right now, nine
dollars and ninety nine cents. I gotta go, what what
does he say on why don't we have this in
the studio.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
I'll go get one, I'll pick up two, and I'll
just pay the regular price because I'm getting two for
the half price.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Rush Limbaugh used to do the time check on the
radio station, where you would hear Rush say, here, in
six minutes, it's ten o'clock. You know, why don't we
have Trump doing that. I'll tell you why, because he
wouldn't say it's ten o'clock. He's like, let me tell
you it's ten o'clock. I don't know what time it
is where Tim Walls is that guy? What a disaster?

(31:55):
You know? It would go on for an hour and
then he had to say and now it's eleven o'clock.
So that's that's probably why the Trump talking wall clock.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
I can't believe you did this. I cannot believe you
did this. Why. I'm going to go to every minards
in this city and they won't have any.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
Sorry, Lucy, take comfort in the fact that no one
listens to anything I say.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
So you're good.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
You're good. And I suppose if you want to buy
it and use it as a dart board, it's available
for that too. Does the Secret Service come to you
if you use the Trump wall clock as a dart board?

Speaker 2 (32:29):
No, because it bounce off.

Speaker 1 (32:30):
Okay, so Martina Navratilova, Yeah, it's dart resistant. This is
a great clock, dart resistant, narco terrorist resistant. Martina Navertalova
now is saying that Trump's an embarrassment making America worse.
Interesting that just two years ago she said women's sports

(32:54):
is not the place for mediocre male athletes who compete
as women, period, and she doubled down on all that.
She said biological males aka men do not get to
compete against women. It's not right, it's not fair. There's
a competitive advantage, and anyone that allows them to do

(33:15):
that are nuts. So now she's saying Trump's an embarrassment,
but she hasn't walked back any of the gender comments
that she had just two years ago. She's a conundrum.
She was really good tennis player though.

Speaker 2 (33:29):
For I just got to tell you this, Okay, god One,
A good friend of mine just sent me a text, Hey,
I'm going to minards. I can pick you up one.
And I said that's great, I get me too. And
so she sent me a picture. She said, this one right,
and it's a picture of the back scratchers.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
So a few minutes ago, let me tell you what
you missed. Lucy was all hype about the Menard's circular
in a local newspaper. And I said, here's what it says.
It is the garden Rake backscratcher eight dollars. And I said,
right below that is the Trump ten inch talking wall clockety,

(34:09):
what's funny about it? Lucy's like, no, don't tell people
they're gonna buy it before I get a chance to.
I don't know if you're really gonna buy it, I
don't know if it'll be sold out by the time
you get there.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
What is my friend's going to get it.

Speaker 1 (34:21):
What I think is really funny about this is this
is the Minards ad and they're saying, well, their price
is nineteen ninety nine ours nine. When it says there's
what department store chain in America would dare sell anything
that said has a picture of Trump fist rays. It's

(34:44):
not the fight Fight Fight fist rays, and it's like
just a regular Trump rally fist rays, you know, taking
in the applause and so forth. It's the ten inch
talking wall clock says Trump make America great again social
media since say hear from Trump every hour.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
Hurry up, Susan. They're going to run out of them
now for sure.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
And it says their price is nineteen ninety nine. Who's
I can't imagine Target. It's like, we got to make
sure we're stocked full of the over here. We've got
the LGBTQ Pride swimwear where we've got a tuck pouch
in the bikini bottoms on the swim on the swimsuit. Well,

(35:32):
same thing which was an actual thing a couple of
years ago during Pride Month targets like, here's our Pride
Month offerings. And the Pride Month is in June, so
that's also bathing suit season. So they said, here's the
Pride Month bathing suits. And it was a bikini for

(35:52):
men who identify as women, but they haven't gone full guillotine.
And so if you still got it, where are you're
gonna put it in those bikini bottoms? You put it
in the tuck pouch. And as we said, this would
be great for moms like you know, these women who
were born women who still identify as women, even though
no one does that anymore. Right, they could when they

(36:15):
take their kids to the beach, they could put like
a granola bar or some snacks for the kids in there,
because you always got to take snacks for the kids
anywhere with today's kids, even though our parents never dreamed
of taking satchel bags full of snacks and bottled water
and drinks and all the rest of this stuff. Here's
how the conversation went in nine eighty six. I'm thirsty, Well,
you have to wait till we get home.

Speaker 2 (36:35):
You get a whole pool out there.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
I'm hungry. That's great, dinner's coming up in three hours.
You'll you'll, you'll eat all your dinner tonight. I'm sure, yeah,
but today it's uh. Your kids don't even have to
say it. It's here. Eat this. Come on, Kiden, eat this,
Eat all this stuff. I brought a whole buffet stuff
here in the satchel bag. Mothers load up these camel
bags full of snacks and water and gatorades and and

(37:00):
uh clean X and anything that could anyone ever need
and uh. And then the husband says, you don't need
to bring all that stuff. Oh, I'll be fine. And
you know, you never know when you might need it,
and I'll be fine carrying it. Well, I'm not going
to carry it. If you're gonna bring all that stuff,
you're carrying it, I'll be fine. Twenty seven minutes later,
Dad's carrying all of it.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Wah wah. Now with a suit that you bought with
a package.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
A pie, not with not with a swimsuit.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
No, it's a satchel.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
Well. I hope that you get what you're looking for,
all of you. I hope everyone gets whatever they're looking
for all the time, as long as it doesn't bother
me at least not on like any you know, real level.
It might bother me on some fun complain about it
on the radio level. That's fine. There's nothing you can
do to stop that, by the way, so just you know,
have at it. So let's see here some emails to

(37:57):
Scott at kfab dot com. Chris says, I have a
great way of utilizing Gary. Well, it's about time, guys
been dragging anchor around here for almost fifty years. I
have a great way of utilizing Gary, says Chris. Instead
of full retirement, can he do a segment every day
like Rush did with the Morning Update, the Rush Morning Update.

(38:18):
I'm sure Kfaby Nation would still love to hear his
voice every day. Gary is welcome to do that if
he wants. I don't think that's what he wants. You
will still hear Gary's voice every day. I don't know
if you've noticed, but Gary has earned quite a few

(38:40):
partners in advertising over the years. Tremendous and valued sponsors
of our radio station have glombed onto Gary, and they've
all ridden that horse into brighter times for their bottom line.
You have Gary saying this is Gary Sandelmeyer for your business.

(39:01):
Be ready to take the onslaught of a fire hose,
firing money at you, folding money, big money, big checks,
not coins. He makes it rain not hail. Gary will
still be doing all of those advertising messages. And as
I said, he is welcome to and well, I'm just

(39:21):
as curious as anyone how much he's gonna take us
up on this pop in. Anytime he wants on the
morning show, he can come hang out on this show.
Some of this, though, has led to a couple of
questions from kfab Nation related to the podcasts. Let's see here,

(39:43):
I don't know who's asking what. There have been a
number of people asking these questions. So the question has
been like, well, are you shutting down the morning show
podcast which is right now Gary sattlemeyern Kfab's Morning News,
all the podcasts of Gary, Like I presume today you'll
pod cast Gary talking with Senator Ricketts and I missed

(40:03):
the conversation the other day with Governor Pillen or whatever.
Does all that go away as a Friday No. In fact,
the podcast link remains now the name of the show,
and even our little picture that goes with the podcast
change over the weekend, but the link remains, and stuff

(40:29):
that we do on the Morning Show six to nine.
That will still go on the Morning Show podcast link.
Lucy and I are then hanging out overtime here and
doing the show from nine to ten. If you missed
the announcement, the other day ten o'clock through the holidays
will be the live Glenn Beck Show from ten to eleven.

(40:52):
He'll still be on for his entire show six to
nine pm here on eleven ten kfab. But to get
us through the holidays, Glenn back at ten. That is
not a permanent replacement. That is a temporary get through
the holidays. More announcements to come. We're looking at a
variety of ways of entertaining you in twenty twenty six.
But the Morning Show podcast remains. All the stuff that's

(41:16):
on there now stays. All the stuff from the Vintage
Vorhees podcast stays and will be added to from stuff
we do in the nine o'clock hour, or if there's
something particularly Vorheazy that happens in the Morning Show, it
might go on both podcasts. But if you're looking for me,
I'm easy to find on the podcast links at kfab

(41:38):
dot com. So hopefully those answer those questions. Now to
the topic of COVID. Yeah, it came up in the
last hour. We noted that a school district in Iowa
is shut down for a couple of days because so
many staff members and students are all sick with the flu.
Nowhere in the story doesn't say COVID, and so therefore

(41:59):
the tips on how to remain healthy and what to
do in the next couple of days around that district
are tips, not mandates.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
You notice how every time tips are given to try
to stay healthy are always the same. The wash your hands,
which is a good idea, and stay home and blah
blah blah whatever you.

Speaker 1 (42:16):
Can't say blah blah blah about things that make people healthy.

Speaker 2 (42:19):
Because I'm going to tell you they never tell you, yes,
to up your vitamin c oh and to take zinc
with magnesium and let's see what else vitamin D. Yeah,
but if you if you take vitamins, because you're not
getting them from the food, You've got to take your vitamins,

(42:41):
especially see and zinc and magnesium. You get that stuff
in you and you wash your hands. I'm a huge
proponent of washing your hands all the time.

Speaker 1 (42:50):
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
I'm not like OCD about it. But if I leave
the house. If I come back, my husband looks at me, like,
what are you doing? I'm washing my hands. I just
got home. I mean, I think that that is always
a good idea.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
And you're not ocd about it.

Speaker 2 (43:06):
No, it's once when I come home, when I was
making the reindeer Christmas crack, that got a little obsessive
because you know, when you're making food for other people. Yeah,
you gotta those washing my hands every time I did anything.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
If it's not hilarious for me to say, so, Lucy's
Christmas crack is to die for.

Speaker 2 (43:28):
I guess when you say it like that.

Speaker 1 (43:29):
Yeah, well it's weird what you made it, and that's
what you call it. There's nothing I'd rather have that's
weird then Lucy's Christmas crack.

Speaker 2 (43:42):
So anyway, although I just wanted to say that, why
don't we talk about the things can really keep you healthy.
Make sure you've got a lot of vitamin C.

Speaker 1 (43:49):
Excellent point, Lucy. You should know I censored some things
I wanted to say a moment. Sure you fill in
your own It's like sometimes this show is like mad libs.
I'll lead you down the road. You'll have to fill
in the verb. Or the noun the adjective that's on you.

(44:11):
So these are tips, not mandates. Which and at no
place in the story does it say COVID. And I thought, well,
I guess COVID's all gone, nothing to worry about. Well
a couple of emails there. One says during the COVID lockdown,
if you had family round on Christmas Day, police could
force entry into your home and make them go home.

(44:34):
Does anyone know if the service is still available and
if you have to book it? That's great, fantastic. That
was sent by Lucy Chapman. And then Sue says COVID
is not dead long COVID, and Lucy or Sue here
in the inbox says, morning Scott and Lucy, I just

(44:55):
need to chime in on the subject. Believe me, COVID
is not dead, especially those like me who are living
each and every day with long COVID. No, that's why
I said. The sarcasm was you weren't allowed to say
during COVID, hey you know the flu's still out there. No,
it's not. No one's dying of the flu, which was true.

(45:18):
According to the numbers, no one died of the flu.
They were all dying from COVID, and then we decided,
all right, that's kind of run its course, and now
people are dying from the flu again, is it possible
that some people were dying from the flu and not COVID.
And we weren't saying like COVID doesn't exist. We weren't
saying all I'll say about COVID and the flu and

(45:39):
all that stuff is it's amazing how some people get
the same thing covid flu, even the common cold or
pneumonia or something like that. Some people get it and
there's really seemingly no difference between them. They're about the
same age, underlying health concern. And two people get the

(46:01):
exact same thing and one doesn't even know they have
it or barely has any symptoms, and the other one
dies on the spot or ends up getting this crazy
long COVID. And I know people who have long COVID,
people who are in some cases they have the good

(46:23):
days and the bad days, but are sadly almost unrecognizable
some days from who they were before that happened to them.
And it's it's awful. And we're not saying like, hey,
you big phony, No it's not on this show We're
not saying that stuff. All I'm calling attention to is
the mandates and the fact that some people weren't allowed

(46:46):
to ask questions or point things out or wonder about
these things because you would be deplatform from social media,
you would not be allowed to be in Congress and
ask these questions. You ask these questions in the radio,
and people are like, this person should be canceled, and
all the rest of this. That's all we're saying. We

(47:07):
have dueling healthcare plans colliding on Capitol Hill. This is
what Senator Rickets was talking about with Gary and Jim
about two and a half hours ago here on the
radio station. Will give you a few details on this,
and President Trump saying this, here's something else I'm doing.
This having a massive impact. This is kind of an

(47:28):
interesting one. We'll get to it next. Scott Voriez News
Radio eleven ten kfab Lucy said a moment ago, you've
gotta if you want to be healthy through the holidays,
cold and Flucy's and all the rest of us, you
got to take your vitamins and so forth. Got an
email here unsigned that says, thanks for the reminder, Lucy,
I just popped my pills. Now that should be a

(47:49):
regular segment on this radio program. Don't forget to take
your pills this morning.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
I'm just gonna leave that right.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
I take a daily allergy pill. Yes, and this will
come as a surprise to nobody. I usually I take it.
It's the little the little container of pills is right
next to my toothbrush, so I take it right before
I brush my teeth. Okay, if I take it and

(48:23):
then I do anything else in the world, like a
text pops up on my phone, I look at it,
or I have to, I don't know, do anything in
the world, even if it's just a split second. I
go grab my toothbrush and I look at the thing
of pills, and I think, did I take my allergy pill?
I know it's just just a second ago, And then
I have to wonder do I should I not take it?

(48:48):
I mean, really, allergy is really on a problem right now.
I probably skip a day. Is it bad? If I
take double the.

Speaker 2 (48:54):
Amount and answer to both questions.

Speaker 1 (48:57):
Yeah, then I just take all of them.

Speaker 2 (48:59):
Yeah, that would help to You could actually do either
one because it's built. It builds up in your system,
so you were you'd be fine without it for a
day and if you took two, but that's not going
to hurt you.

Speaker 1 (49:10):
Yeah, I don't know if anyone. I mean, that's just
for an allergy pill, right, if you had something you
have to take like for oh, yeah, your life every day?
Does that happen? Like, hey, if you don't take this
pill every morning right before breakfast, you will die by noon.
And then you take it, and then an hour later
you're like, did I take that pill? And then, of
course the other instruction is don't take two, otherwise you'll

(49:34):
die by eleven? Funny sir, And then you have to
look at it and go, did I take that?

Speaker 2 (49:39):
I was this many years old when I realized when
a medicine, When a medication says take thirty minutes before food,
it doesn't mean that in thirty minutes you have to eat.
It just means don't take it with food in your stomach. Oh,
I never got that. I thought, oh, I have to
take this thirty minutes before I eat.

Speaker 1 (50:00):
I really thought about it.

Speaker 2 (50:00):
Not hungry in thirty minutes.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
I've never thought about it because I rarely go more
than thirty minutes without eating.

Speaker 2 (50:05):
Oh, that's true.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
Now you gave me this newspaper circular.

Speaker 2 (50:10):
With the no do not spoil it. Now you can
just say one thing that it's not. You don't have
to say where it is.

Speaker 1 (50:17):
Yes, I do, you don't. I'm going to well you you.
I'm blaming both of us. So you you saw the
Trump talking wall clock for nine nine nine advertise, and
you folded it up and you circle the Trump clock,
and you gave it to me and said, look at this.
And I didn't unfold it. I just saw the way

(50:39):
that the ad looks with the green color and then
the red and the yellow lettering and everything, and I
looked at it and I thought, this is Minards. Doesn't
this look like it's I thought it wass the Minards.
I didn't even think that it wasn't Monards. And then
Lucy came in her. So I'm getting feedback from listeners

(51:00):
who may or may not work at Minards, going, hey,
thanks for all the mentions, but we don't know what
you're talking about.

Speaker 2 (51:06):
Right now, people are storming Minards, where's the drump clock?
They have no idea what they're talking about.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
Hey, if that happens, and people are like, where why
are all these people coming in and asking about this
merchandise we may or may not have at the price
being advertised on the radio. Hey just remember, when done
with people who actually know what they're talking about, advertising
on KFAB can work in your favor.

Speaker 2 (51:30):
There you go, and Allie's spare to be give an onslaught.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
Just for accuracy's sake, which we rarely care about. This
is not the Minard's ad. This is for Ali's discount
good cheap stuff, Ali's North seventy second near Emmanuel, just
north the Crown Point Sorensen up in that area. That's
where Ali's has And now I have to read every

(51:57):
single thing of the dozens of things on here. Sorry Ali,
Sorry Ali's. I didn't know. I didn't know this. I
thought it's the same font and typeface.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
And kids under twenty are thinking, what's a newspaper? I know,
what's a print ad? Thanks Sue for that.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
Look, Minards has got a lot of great stuff. Ali's
has a lot of great stuff, and we love them
all very much.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
Just don't go to Ali's until like the afternoon.

Speaker 1 (52:27):
Speaking of speaking of font and typeface, I gotta get
to that. But first the few things I said i'd
get to here. We were talking about your health. A
moment ago, Senator Ricketts was on here a couple of
hours ago, a few hours ago, talking about how Republicans
are like, we have a healthcare plan, and of course
people are like, you've had all this time to have
a healthcare plant. They had an end to Obamacare and

(52:49):
ready to go, and that's when Senator John McCain gave
the thumbs down, torpedoed it, and that's where it went.
But now since the Obamacare subsidies have runout, that's mostly
what led to the government shutdown. We got to let
taxpayers artificially lower Obamacare costs so people can have cheaper healthcare.

(53:12):
Like why are the people who are paying more for healthcare,
and even the people on Obamacare, why should they be
paying more in their taxes to lower their healthcare rates.
None of this makes sense. So now Republicans say we're
going to have a new plan. Now, I like some
of the things I'm hearing. I don't know that any
of it will ever go anywhere, whether it's health savings

(53:33):
account and that kind of issue, which is kind of
what they're trying to do with the McCain thumbs down.
But really it's so simple. Your health insurance should really
be no different than how you're able to shop for
and choose plans from across the country, across state lines,
with which you're not allowed to do in health insurance.

(53:54):
For some stupid reason. To treat your health insurance the same
way as your auto insurance. As I always say, if
you used your auto insurance to change a windshield wiper blade,
you would still pay a relatively low copay, But whatever
is backing the cost of that replacement wiper blade will

(54:16):
suddenly jack the cost of that wiper blade up from
its current twenty bucks or whatever it is, depending on
how good blade you get, to like twenty twenty dollars
or more. And that's what happens with health insurance when
someone else is paying the full cost, or working with
the hospitals and clinics to say, and we'll reimburse you

(54:37):
at some rate to whatever the full cost is. No
one really pays any of this stuff, so we can
just jack up the cost and the whole thing has
gotten so stupid. Treat it like your auto insurance, allow
it to go to the market, and let the free
market and American people decide whether they want Geico health
insurance or whatever, super easy. All you gotta do is

(54:58):
do that. President Trump says, my visa bond pilot program
is paying out and paying off. This is where he said,
all right, we've had a number of people come to
America on visas from their home countries. And that guest
visa program has an expiration date. You either need to

(55:19):
reapply or go home by the expiration date on this visa.
You can't just stay here. Well, a number of people
have overstayed their visas. Trump said, all right, you are
from high overstay countries. You want to come here, you
need to pay fifteen thousand dollars to enter the US.
If you're from one of these countries where people come

(55:41):
here overstay their visas and never leave. So now it's
fifteen thousand dollars down like a security deposit. You leave
on time, you get your money back. You don't, We
keep your money and we find you and then we
send you back without fifteen thousand dollars. And they said,
since the administration started this several months ago against six countries,

(56:04):
we've been making some money. We've been getting people out
of the country, and the overstay rate has gone down
to almost zero. Great idea, why did anyone else ever
think about this? Well, because no one else runs the
government like a business. Lucy, are you a Are you
into fonts? Do you have a preferred font type and

(56:29):
point size for your your all of your compositions?

Speaker 2 (56:35):
Well, I do like the twenty two point Are you
at the.

Speaker 1 (56:39):
Point where you need? You can't read anything unless it's
twenty two point type?

Speaker 2 (56:44):
Well, no, you know what I'm doing voice work. If
it's per page, then twenty two point is always you know,
I'm kidding. No, I like it. I like it to
be where I can read it.

Speaker 1 (56:56):
I went out and met my met a friend of mine,
one of my longest and oldest friends. We grew up
since we met in kindergarten. We've been friends ever since.
We got together for a drink last night. We're looking
over the drink specials menus. Each of us are holding
the menu so far away from our eyes, and then
we started laughing and like what is And then and

(57:17):
then we're walking out to our cars afterwards, can't remember
where we parked, like we're only we're on the doorstep
of fifty and I said, what are we going to
be like when we're doing this at seventy five. I said,
we'll be dead by then, say that probably.

Speaker 2 (57:34):
No, you'll be You'll be alive and healthy and they'll
have found out how to fix eyes and all kinds
of stuff.

Speaker 1 (57:40):
Yeah, murder suicide. That's how we're going out.

Speaker 2 (57:45):
Well, we'll maybe with your friend that you haven't talked
to since high school. You're so close, it's gonna be
murder suicide.

Speaker 1 (57:51):
Oh I didn't say I haven't talked to it. We
talked it all the time. I just we we have
been friends since we were little kids. And well, it'll
probably be more like a i'ma Louise thing. But whether
or not it will be, I'm just saying right now,
since we already can't see and can't remember where we
parked when we're driving together, probably off to some golf

(58:11):
course and drive right off a bridge or off a
cliff or something like that, let's just pretend it was
on purpose and somehow romanticize it somehow.

Speaker 2 (58:24):
Sundance and Butch, Yes, Louise, Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (58:29):
All that stuff we were talking about. Fonts. Oh yeah,
so Lucy likes a large point type me. I'm times
new Roman twelve point.

Speaker 2 (58:42):
Type twelve is acceptable, but that is the lowest I'd go.

Speaker 1 (58:48):
That's my preference. I can see, pardon the pun, in
my near future having to either go to fourteen or
something really really dumb. I'm told that I could get
I don't know these things you wear on your face
that actually can improve your vision, but that's not going

(59:10):
to happen, not before I'm fifty. Anyway, my wife said
you should get readers. I said, I'm not getting readers.
I'm sitting there struggling to read the book. I put
it down. I said, I can't. It's not enjoyable to
read this all.

Speaker 2 (59:24):
Not being able to see is a good excuse for
not being able to read.

Speaker 1 (59:27):
That's what she said. She go get readers. I said,
maybe after I'm fifty. She said, what are you going
to do till then? I said, not read. So I
am a preference when it comes to writing up memos
and so forth. My preference is Times New Roman twelve
point type. Turns out we have a font issue.

Speaker 2 (59:48):
I'm saying that I'm on the edge of my chair.

Speaker 1 (59:50):
Your White House, no one is. I'm just the Biden
administration had ordered the State Department. In twenty twenty three,
Secretary of State Anthony blinkin a Blincoln. Someone say a Blincoln.
There's your nineties movie reference for this segment of the
radio program. Here comes a big side turn. I'm gonna

(01:00:12):
go down when we reveal this one. Bill and Ted
good guess. But no, plus I think that was eighty nine. No,
that was Robin Hood men in tights? Oh on that one.

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
I just had to look that up for something else.

Speaker 1 (01:00:28):
Recently, Dave Chappelle was in that scene. Hey blinking, someone say,
hey blinken. Dave Chappelle was one of those here's the
side road. We did watch the I can still watch
TV because I used to get a bigger and bigger
screen or deal with my diminishing vision. No close captioning.

(01:00:51):
That's for women. Men, just crank up the volume.

Speaker 2 (01:00:55):
It's for women and watching English shows.

Speaker 1 (01:01:00):
Probably. Men don't watch English shows, by the way, unless
it's a guy Ritchie movie. Now, where was I last night?
We watched I think it's on Netflix, the Eddie Murphy
documentary Being Eddie.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
I haven't seen it.

Speaker 1 (01:01:17):
Do yourself a favor if you've ever been entertained by
this man. It was so good. How else do you
get Dave Chappelle, Jerry Seinfeld, Jamie Fox Adam Sandler, just
a little bit of Adam Sandler, and so many of
these legends of the comedy game together to be bit

(01:01:38):
people helping tell the story. Eddie, who gives full access,
talks about everything, almost everything. They didn't talk about picking
up some interesting woman of the night or whatever the
heck that was. They didn't talk about that, but some
of the issues with women and relationships over the years.
But his entertainment and it was so so good. The

(01:02:02):
Bean Eddie documentary fantastic. Now where was I? The Biden
administration twenty twenty three, Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln changed
the official font on the department's whether it's emails or
official documents. They changed it from fourteen point times New

(01:02:25):
Roman to Calibri. If I'm pronouncing that correctly, and they said,
I don't know if it was twelve point or fourteen point,
but they said, well, Calibri is easier to read. And
there was also a DEI reason behind the change. What

(01:02:47):
come on, it's now it says that Calibri praise by advocates.
It's a sans serif typeface considered easier to read for
people with low VISI like me. Dyslexia or those using
screen readers, and so it was they said it was

(01:03:09):
easier to read. Senator are now now Secretary of State
Marco Rubio says, now we're not doing this wasteful nod
to diversity, equity inclusion initiatives. It looks informal. It clashes
with the official letterhead. Times New Roman is being restored

(01:03:33):
fourteen point Times New Roman will restore decorum and professionalism
to the State Department. What I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:03:41):
I think, first of all, had they lost it decorum?

Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
Yeah, yes, I think our company for official emails, let's
see here. I don't know. I think it's different from
my desktop email to the the web based email I
have in the studio, This says Aptose. I don't know.

(01:04:07):
You're not familiar with all of those non Times New
Roman typefaces all kind of look the same to me.
They're more rounded and not bold like Times New Roman.
Times in Roman is strong. Times in Roman is full
of toxic masculinity. I like Times New Roman. It's not
like the State Department was using wingings or something like that.

(01:04:31):
It would mean I don't know that anyone would have
honestly thought what has happened here with the font except
for font dorks like Brick from the middle. He was
in font club.

Speaker 2 (01:04:44):
But you can't readings.

Speaker 1 (01:04:46):
No, I know. It's it's not like they were using
isn't there some really goofy comics comic saans? Yes, not
they were used. They weren't using comic saands for state
department memos. Well there are, so they might as well
have Scott voice. Which of these guys here picked up

(01:05:07):
by police locally in the last couple of days is
more Cray Cray Lou say you've got the help. An
officer call that went out yesterday for Omaha Police that
was about five point thirty. There was a crash property
damage near fifty sixth and Center Streets. They had a

(01:05:29):
guy there who was being evasive. Then there was a
fight between the officer and the guy, which led to
the help an officer call. The guy was trying to
attack a police officer with a skateboard. They tasted him
multiple times, it didn't stop him. Pause to relay that
to the anti cop crowd that says, you don't need

(01:05:50):
ever to use lethal force if someone is coming at
you with a bazooka, just use the taser. Yeah, that
didn't work with everybody all the time. This guy, thankfully
only had a skateboard. You do a lot of damage
of the skateboard. But he started trying to beat a
cop with a skateboard. More cops showed up and they
took the guy down. Police arrested Tony Hawk and charged

(01:06:14):
him with unlawful gleaming of the cube. He was on.

Speaker 2 (01:06:18):
It did not he was.

Speaker 1 (01:06:20):
On a search for animal chin. I don't know if
that was successful. There are your eighties skateboard movie references
for this segment of the radio program, The Very Little
used references to the search for animal chin and gleaming
the cube.

Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
That's from dog City.

Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
No, that's the Dogtown guy. That is an homage to
the skateboard movies of the eighties.

Speaker 2 (01:06:45):
Great movie.

Speaker 1 (01:06:46):
Yeah, and then you had this guy. Cast County deputies
arrested a guy from Omaha. As you heard Craig Evans today,
this guy had stolen a trash truck from Dale's Trash Service. Dale,
we found your truck in There was a guy named Taylor,
not a guy we used to work with. It's a
different tailor. They pulled him over eventually and arrested him.

(01:07:11):
He had crashed into a vehicle that was on the shoulder,
and then he ran into a gas station and was
trying to steal liquor shooters, so some combination liquor. No,
they don't. They shoot it down their throats. Those are

(01:07:32):
the little bottles, think the little bottles of fireball that
you empty, ones that you see all over God's creation.
As I said years ago, you are allowed to throw
those in a trash receptacle. You don't have to just
chuck them on the ground or on the street or whatever.
You can throw them in a trash can they do fit.

(01:07:54):
So they arrested this guy, charged him with he crashed
into a car, He tried to steal from liquor from
a gas station, and stole a trash truck. So if
your trash was late pick up in Cass County, this
guy didn't then do the trash picking uping. So which
of these guys is more crazy skateboard guy or trash

(01:08:16):
truck liquor.

Speaker 2 (01:08:16):
Shooter trash store liquor shooter guy.

Speaker 1 (01:08:21):
Both of them are in custody. I don't know if
they'll be pitted against each other in the local reality show,
but if so, I want to host it. All right,
