Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six FORTYFI.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Later with More Live on YouTube and the iHeartRadio app.
And most people, if you've been following the news, are
aware of what has been happening with the Jimmy Kimmel
Live Show and that it is back tonight. I'm quite
sure it's either they're taping right now, they're almost done,
and the air on the East coast in the next
hour or so. Hopefully we'll be able to get the
(00:44):
YouTube of his monologue and that will answer everybody's questions.
If he's going to address the controversy. Is he going
to apologize? I doubt it, but if you were, you
would hear it tonight. Is he going to somehow make
light of it? Is he going to you know, double
down in some way? All those questions would be answered
(01:04):
in the monologue because that is where the answers would come.
It wouldn't come later in the show. So when that
monologue comes out and everyone gets a sense of it,
and no one from what I've seen, nothing has appeared
on any.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Of the trades or CNN has something CNN the Chiron
says he defended free speech and was emotional. Did they
drop in the audio or there's just like a transcript
or just a they got a panel talking about it
right now. They must be talking to people coming out
of the show. That's what it sounds like.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Okay, all right, I'll keep an eye on it, all right, Yeah,
we'll watch and then we'll get a better sense of
what he actually said.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
And we don't have to speculate.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Okay, So he if anything, if what Mark says is accurate,
then he addressed it, but not necessarily directly. He talked
about the larger issue of free speech and the larger
issue of comedy and dialogue in America today. I don't
know where this is going to go from here. And
what I mean by that is, we know that Sinclair Media,
(02:05):
we know that next Star they are preempting Jimmy Kimmel
tonight and for the foreseeable future, and without knowing what
the contract language is as far as airing the show,
don't know how long they can do this without making
some sort of final decision.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
I had read and I.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Need to confirm this with a little bit more homework
that they only really have the option of preempting a
certain number of shows before they're in breach of their contract.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Yes, I know that's true, but we just don't know
the number, and we don't know the reasoning which can
be used. And I don't think it's a very long time.
I think you could do it like a week or something.
I don't think you can do it for an inordinate
amount of time or in perpetuity. So this is going
to have to break one way or the other relatively soon.
(02:54):
I don't know what Next Star is waiting on. I
don't know what Sinclair is waiting on. I've read places
where they expected or demanded that Jimmy Kimmel were to
make a public apology and also some sort of financial
pledge to the family.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Yeah donation, which is kind of weird extortion. It seems
like on its face it is.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
It is exactly that, because it's quid pro quote this
for that, and you're holding the show hostage. I don't
think that's going to happen. But stranger things have happened
in the business of entertainment, and also beyond this moment
with Jimmy Kimmel, what happens with Seth Myers, what happens
with Jimmy fallon the next time they want to make
(03:34):
some sort of joke which is near this subject matter.
It doesn't even have to be about Charlie Kirky, doesn't
have to be about that incident, but just somewhere around
the sensibilities and their sensitivities.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
I don't know what's going to happen.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
I think everyone is watching Jimmy Kimmel as I guess
the yardstick, because we didn't really get it with Stephen
Colbert because he never left air. Jimmy kim he was
taken off the air and suspended. Now that he's back,
and this is something that I try to let people
know as far as my limited knowledge what happens behind
(04:10):
the scenes. There is a union aspect for sag Aftra.
There are the contracts with the various affiliates that we
were just talking about that are also a consideration. There
is the contract of Jimmy Kimmel, as far as I
think he's owed, I think forty eight months left on
his contract, So if they were to fire him, they
(04:31):
would have to pay out some exorbitant amount of money,
and Disney Slash ABC doesn't want to do that unless
they are forced to do that.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Especially after losing at least four billion dollars in the
last week. They really took a hit from the protests
and the cancelations. Now we should be clear that Trump
President Trump was gunning for all the late night shows
hosts well before anything having to do with Charlie Kirk,
and this seemed to be the catalyst. And what's weird
to me about this is that of all of them,
(05:00):
Jimmy Fallon really has tried to lie low, but Trump
still wants him as well.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Yes, and look, it's not going to end with Jimmy Kimmel.
In other words, there are going to be other situations
in the news in which these late night hosts are
going to make fun of President Trump or those in
his orbit.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
That's not going to change.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
The only question is how the Trump administration and also
those close to the Trump administration vsa V, like the FCC,
or those who are sympathetic to him, how they will respond.
I don't know if Sinclair can take the stance and
they're just going to take off any and all late
night television that they don't like down the line, I
(05:41):
don't know if that is a.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Realistic business model. Let me put it that way.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Well, you know what, Sinclair's business reputation is they're infamous for,
you know, being on message with they're consistent with their
local news, making them all repeat the same scripts over
and over again. They're not exactly the most independent of
of media and news outlets.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
No they're not.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
And they're very clear that they represent a very specific
point of view on the political spectrum, and they want
their affiliates to hew very closely to that. I don't
know if that is sustainable long term given what happened here,
because if you have Sinclair and Nexstar making these decisions
in the future around i'll say, less controversial issues, trying
(06:30):
to forcibly what's the word of looking for guide programs
in a certain direction. There's going to be some lawsuits coming,
and I think Disney wanted to avoid the lawsuit from
Jimmy Kimmel here, which could have made this far worse.
If you fire him outright, Jimmy Kimmel sues him all
(06:52):
to hell everyone.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Yeah, as I mentioned, some analysts that I have been
paying attention to said that if Kimmel got serious about
he could own n or ABC rather, because the chain
coming from the top to what happened to him was
really really.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Explicit, and you have those like Bob Iiker who are
sitting in a really precarious situation. You're trying to manage
the fortunes of Disney Big Picture and also ABC Little Picture,
but you're getting boycotted on both sides. You have the
(07:29):
conservatives who are already mad at Disney about snow white
and everything quote unquote woke, so they were already boycotting
all things Disney. Then you have the celebrities and the
supposed left who were boycotting Disney and ABC because of
Jimmy Kimmel. It was a lose lose proposition. Now, to
(07:50):
Mark's point, whenever you lose four billion dollars, that's bad,
but it could have gotten a hell of a lot
worse the longer Jimmy Kimmel was not on the air,
or there wasn't some sort of agreement made to bring
him back on the air.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yeah, people really rallied behind Kimmel. And to be clear,
it's not a matter of whether you like kim Will
personally or think he's funny. It is a complete free
speech and First Amendment issue. I can't wait for this monologue.
As soon as we have it, we will play it
for you. It's Later with Mokelly KFI AM six forty.
We're live on YouTube and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
When we come back, we have to talk about the
next generation of self driving vehicles and how one step
closer to the consumer market where you and I will
get to have our own autonomous vehicle.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Oh, no, is Tawalla wearing some new jewelry today or
a new set of clothing.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
No, I think he's well, it's not new clothing, but I.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Think he has a new car. Another one. Yeah, Okay.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
I don't want to make any like assumptions here. I
don't want to jump the conclusion. You've got to go
to the news. We've got to go to the news. Mark,
You've got to give us the news.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
KFI Later with Kelly Live everywhere on YouTube and the
iHeartRadio app. When we talk about autonomous vehicles, we talk
about ride share, we talk about the future of the
automotive industry, and we've long said, well, actually we've long
argued about the future whether it will be completely autonomous
(09:34):
vehicles or not. I think it will get there. I
don't think we're close to it. I don't know if
our infrastructure is ready for it, but we're moving in
that direction. And we also outwardly mused about the time
in which we would have autonomous vehicles for you and
me as consumers.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
It's getting closer and closer.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
There was a recent demonstration of this automated self driving
technology but use for Nissan, and the demonstrated Sedan which
was outfitted with eleven cameras, five radars, and the next
generation sensor called lidar, and it maneuvered its way through
downtown Tokyo, and you can see where all this is going.
(10:22):
It's said to be available in twenty twenty seven. It
didn't say anything about ride share. It said available in
twenty twenty seven. What I would perceive as consumers like
you and me, and it may not be available in
the United States, but whatever's done Nissan in Japan will
(10:45):
eventually hit the United States. And you'd have to assume
at this point the consumer market for autonomous vehicles is
much closer than ever before. I don't know how soon
I would be ready for it. I'm not even ready
to get into a WEIMO at this point. Much less
own my own autonomous vehicle. But I am honest enough
(11:09):
to admit that this is where all the technology is
gonna be.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Is it five years away, ten years away?
Speaker 2 (11:15):
If I were to just give a best guess estimate,
I would say inside of twenty years, and twenty years
can go by pretty quick. Inside of twenty years, just
about all cars.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
Will be autonomous MO.
Speaker 5 (11:30):
You're discounting the fact that Elon Musk already has self
driving technology in the hands of people on the streets
right now with Tesla's the only difference between you just
getting just your normal Hey, I'm gonna drive my Tesla
and getting a self driving Tesla that can take you
from point A to point B, park all that, wait
(11:51):
for you, help you find a charging station, do all
of that, through all of this. Ali I drive you
off and then go and then go park, go home
and come back if you want to. And it can
even go and charge itself. It can go. Look is
the price. It is a higher price for the self
driving technology, and they keep updating it, they keep updating
(12:13):
the testa. So if that's in our hands right now.
The next level is what companies like Nissan are working on,
where it's not something that to your point where it's
not something that you have to pay the extra fee for.
It's just commonplace. It's hey, here's this model self driving,
here's that model self driving. And when you say do
(12:33):
you have any non self driving those says, well, those
we are not like cars with CD players.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
And gas and gas. Yeah. No.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
I actually I think we're saying the same thing where
we already have varying levels of the technology.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
I just envision a world in which nobody's driving. Yes
within twenty years, Yes, absolutely.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
And that's good for me because I hopefully will not
be driving in twenty years, because I will be seventy something,
so I don't want to drive. I hope that I
would not lose my autonomy as far as driving, and
this is the way that I would be able to
maintain my.
Speaker 5 (13:06):
Mobility well at seventy something. The rapture may have already come.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Look, they got like twenty four hours, twenty four hours.
I don't know who said this. I just saw it
on threads bumping around. I should have seen who said
it to give correct attribution. But they said that the
(13:32):
rapture was not gonna happen because if Jesus came back,
and if he happened to land anywhere in the United States,
Ice would have deported his ass.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
Hmm, yeah, his name is hey Zeus. They're not wrong.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
They're not wrong, because Jesus is from the Middle East
and he does strike people as kind of woke, right, yeah, yeah.
And if he walked around turning water into wine and everything,
and you know, right the people bringing people back from
the dead, welcome the stranger and all that, what are
you talking about.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Wearing robes and sandals. Yeah, they would, Yeah, they would
have arrested him.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
They would have beat him up and then threw him
in the back of a van and disappeared his ass.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
How you treat the least of us? What kind of
commy talk is?
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Then?
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Well, there's the Jesus of the Bible and there is
the Jesus of American post Biblical Christianity political party.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
Hard to keep track. It's not the same. Oh, okay.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
The Jesus in the Bible is not the same as
the Jesus in the political rally.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
So I can describe it. Which one is the brown one,
the one in the Bible that's in the Bible.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
Okay, there is a description of him in the Bible
as far as wooly hair, and Ron's okay, I gotta
get caught up on all this stuff, clearly, Mark, especially
before the rapture. Especially it would be good because there
might be a pop quiz upon being raptured.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Nobody wants to fail that. Oh no, you got one
chance at it. You better get it right now. But
it's funny.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
But it's not funny because the concept of Jesus in
America in twenty twenty five vastly different from what's actually
written in the Bible.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Because if you took all the things that Jesus said,
things that Jesus believed, things that Jesus did, it probably
would run in stark contrast to the people we call
evangelicals right now, That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
That's all I'm saying. And I'm a person.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Look, I can trade scripture with some of the best
of them, all right. So, and I had these conversations
all the time as far as the person that people
are worshiping, and they put it, put Jesus or Christian
on their social media profile, and then you have a
couple of conversations with them, and you realize.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
You've never read the Bible in your life.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
You don't know one thing about Jesus Christ, Jesus of Nazareth,
what he stood for, what he believed. And also the
people who will use Jesus as some sort of justification
for their politics.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Let me just have this rant for a moment.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
The people who use Jesus's justification for their politics clearly
don't know the Bible.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Could we please just get back to Leviticus and killing
people for eating shellfish and mixing their fabrics and fun
stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Well, here's the thing, and I'm glad you mentioned that,
because people who supposedly are Christians don't know the difference
between the Old Testament and the New Testament, and the
New Testament washes away all those things in the Old Testament.
But more importantly, when you try to justify your politics
with Jesus, you have bastardized a whole point of the
(16:51):
good News or the coming of Christ, because it's about
living individually in right relationship, not trying to tell people
who to vote for, not telling people how to live,
but how you live. That you have accepted Christ into
your heart and you believe with your whole heart and
confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is the Son
(17:13):
of God. You then talk about the rapture there, ask
an actual point here. Then you then will have everlasting
life for when he does return. Now Jesus is just
used as a stamp on your Twitter profile to.
Speaker 4 (17:28):
Say who you hate? How dare you? Mo?
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I'm just a Christian who happens to read the Bible
every day. And then I sing, but what do I know?
It's Later with Mo Kelly, I am six forty well
live everywhere in the iHeart Radio app.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
Mister Kelly.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Later with Mo Kelly Live on YouTube and the iHeartRadio App.
I am a huge Mad Max fan, huge, And I
mentioned that because that goes back to the original before
it turned into a cult classic.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
I saw that like when it first came out, the first.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
One, not the Road Warrior, No, the original Mad Max
where he's where his wife and daughter a child are
killed by the toe cutter.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
Toe Cutter. Yes, And strangely enough, it turned into.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
This this franchise and phenomenon which took over and most
people to your point, Mark know Mad Max mostly because
of the Road Warrior readings from.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
The Aumongous The Lords, the Warrior of the Wasteland. Here
you're tudor Ro.
Speaker 6 (18:54):
I am greatly disappointed again.
Speaker 5 (18:57):
You have my word.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
You look at what remains Scotts Wadasdy. You can not no,
my Christmas say you can plan jap gas in all
the wasteland.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
You send them out this morning.
Speaker 6 (19:21):
To find a vehicle already big enough the whole that
fat tank of gas.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
What a peud plan.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
It's never explicit, it's never quite explained. But there is
some sort of apocalypse and the world has ended. It's
descended into chaos. There's there's no laws or anything, but
gas is the only thing which is really valuable post apocalypse.
There are people for the past fifteen years who are
(19:54):
looking to hang out in a Mad Max type environment
right here in southern Cali, and they are going to
the Mojave Desert starting tomorrow for the annual Wasteland Weekend,
a five day bash inspired by the postal apocalyptic franchises
like Mad Max and Fallout. How either would be appealing?
(20:17):
I have no idea.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
You think you want that, you think you want the
zombie apocalypse, but I promise you don't. You'll miss things
like fresh food, plumbing, your medications, everything we need.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
If you've actually watched the Mad Max trilogy, and it's
more than a trilogy now because they've brought in you know,
Tom Hardy and Charlie Stron There is nothing good which
happens to Max or anyone in the movies.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
No one turns.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Out okay, unless you want to eat some dog food
out of a can.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Oh isn't that great?
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Everybody loves the dog In the Road Warrior, he makes
a little cameo I think in one of the latest
ones he does he does.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
And see, the thing is, there's nothing good.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Everyone dies a horrible death, including Max.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
Is kind of alluded to.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
You don't know, but you know he gets shot in
the first one and they roll over his legs. So
that's why he walks with a limp, why he's wearing
leather for the next ten years. And the Australian out
back in the summer, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (21:18):
Well, it looks cool, it looks uncomfortable in hot and sweaty.
I don't know. Eddie Murphy's he'd been on burning hot
stages on the Spotlight he wears that leather.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Yeah, but he not for sixteen years.
Speaker 6 (21:31):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
The thing is everybody in the Mad Max universe smells horrible, horrible,
That's what I.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Think about, because no one has had a shower in decades.
Speaker 4 (21:39):
No or a beata. There's no toilet paper either. Oh god,
this is everything is just horrible. And now why you
would want to emulate that? That's what you used the
dog for.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Now it was cool to watch now that Ford Falcon,
the interceptor that Max would drive.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
I wanted that car growing up. Oh yeah, it was great,
the ultimate muscle car that there.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Was nothing cool about the world, the wasteland of Mad Max.
Now people are going out for this wasteland weekend, this
five day party, and uh, tickets are sold out.
Speaker 5 (22:14):
I mean it's kind of like, uh, the one that
just passed. It's kind of like Burning Man. Yeah, it's
kind of like Burning Man.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
But I guess this has more of a motif where
people are dressing up and acting like, you know, Lord humongous,
and they even have pro wrestling which has gone out there.
So yeah, I get it, And there's nothing wrong with cosplay,
but the whole idea of being in the desert and
acting like those who are from the Mad Max movie
(22:40):
seems like it's completely unfun I.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
Met the guy. Go ahead, sorry, and I'm sorry. This
is lard being in the desert. This is this is
the true time.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
I like being able to have a shower. I like
not being sweaty all the time. I like not smelling
other people or having your fingers cut off with a boomerang.
Oh that that's a great scenes.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
The what I met Vernon Wells, who plays Wes, and
you won't be surprised to find out that he is
an absolute sweetheart of a guy.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
Didn't he pass on?
Speaker 3 (23:10):
I let me shock, I think so. I hope not.
He's a real fixture at comic cons and stuff. No,
he's still around.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Okay, it's kind of hard to keep track because there's
so many great characters, you know, like who runs Bard
of Town? Master Blaster, Master Blaster runs bar to town.
Since some great stories, great movies, I wouldn't want to
live it. I would not want to live in a
city which was run by pig feces.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Well, when you put it that way, no, but here's
what I want to know. The woman who plays the
warrior woman in the middle one, the Road Warrior. Where
do they find hair crimpers in the post apocalypse universe?
Speaker 4 (23:48):
How does she curl her hair?
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Because that's not natural. It's a crimper from the eighties.
But she was hot though, yes she was. She was very,
very hot.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
And I don't know how people were wearing white back
then either.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Some of the fashion choices were not rational given the circumstances.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I just didn't understand the obsession with the with the gas.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
It's like, where were you going? But what they remembered?
They were trying to get to the Promise No, no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
I understand the people in the Road Warrior were trying
to get to the Promised Land. But as far as
the Lord Humongous and all them, why did they want
the gas?
Speaker 4 (24:25):
They weren't going anywhere, they weren't trying to sell again,
they needed the gas.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
They could go out on the road and rape and pillage,
find stuff, find people who are out there, maybe on
their way to the Promised Land. Attack them, take their vehicles,
take their weapons, eat them, do whatever it is they're
going to do, and get back. They have to have
gas enough to get back to their base.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
No, no, no, no, no, you got it all wrong. They're
trying to find a post apocalyptic BDSM bar. Look at
these guys and how they're dressed. You gotta be kidding me.
It was Bruce Spence, the gyro cap Yeah, the pilot. Yeah, yeah,
he was an underrated character. He appeared in more than
one of them. Yeah, yes he did.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
And it's all like, wait, Mante, that's the same guy,
but he's playing two different characters. Those first two were great.
I didn't love the third third one.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I think the second one is an absolutely perfect action movie,
and I've seen it more times than I can count.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
I thought that there were more comedic moments in Beyond Thunderdome.
That's the third one with Tina Turner. It's funny, but
he got to be absurd at that point.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Also, I don't want to get too deep in the
weeds here, but the third one, I'm finding out is
almost completely stolen from a novel called Ridley Walker. If
you've never heard of it, do some googling, and it's
very strange.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
I just love Bartertown, and I think that that was
a great addition to the mad Max world.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Who runs Bartertown Masked Blaster mass Blaster runs Bartatown.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
No when we do a dying time. I pulled that
straight from.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Yeah Beyond Thunderdome, two men enter.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
You know that's a good line. Mark, we don't need
another key.
Speaker 5 (26:05):
I love I don't about this thing, No, no, no,
the kids do. But they had to get somewhere. And
I love how they left Max just standing, you know,
just on the road on the bus. That's Max's fate,
that's who he is.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Yeah. Yeah, but that that hurt, that that cut deep.
Speaker 6 (26:27):
Good deaths at.
Speaker 4 (26:34):
You're dead to me. You're more dead to me than
your dead mother.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls dying tis here.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
That was the apex of that, right.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
With Kelly and six live everywhere on YouTube and the
iHeartRadio app. And if you should happen to train tigers,
or work with tigers, or hang out with tigers or
kick it with tigers, there's a good chance that you
(27:36):
may end up dead by a tiger because they're not pets.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
They're not your friend.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
I don't care if Mike Tyson had a tiger as
a pet.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
It's not a pet. It's a dangerous wild animal. They're cute,
and those noses deserve to be booped.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
They are from a distance, oh not actually in your presence.
And so when I saw the story that Joe Exotics
associate was mauled by a tiger during a tiger show,
I can't say I'm upset. And I know that may
sound heartless, but if you're trying to tame tigers, there's
(28:20):
a good chance you may end up eating. And that's
what happened to Ryan Easley. He was handling the tiger
during the Saturday show at the Growler Pines Tiger Preserve
when the park says easily was suddenly set upon by
the tiger, which grabbed him around his neck and shoulder area.
Because tigers are predators, they know how to kill their prey.
(28:45):
And what happened to six freed Roy, I don't know
which which one was, We'll say sigro Yes, Sigroy grabbed
him by the neck and dragged him across the stage. Well,
not not different from that evidently was grabbed by the
neck and violently shaken, not stirred.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Is it like an old Warner Brothers cartoon where a
tiger looks at a human being and what they see
as a delicious steak steaming.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
Yeah. I think that's part of it.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
And I think in the back of the tiger's mind
is saying, like, you know what, I'm tolerating this. You
do know that I can kill you at any moment, right,
that's one nose boop too many, But I can't get away.
So I'm gonna go ahead and take the free food
that you give me. But the moment you pissed me off,
you go too far, I'm going to bite you in
your neck and drag you across the stage.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
And that's what happened. Not very grateful, show some gratitude,
more free food, though? Have you said thank you once?
Where'd you get that from?
Speaker 4 (29:41):
I don't know. I forget it's it's in the zeitgeist.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
If you're wondering what Joe Exotic had to say, he
said on Twitter slash x quote. First of all, I
would like to send my prayers to Ryan Easley's family
for their loss. I have known Ryan for many years.
He built a large compound on the backside of my
zoo to house his tigers during the winter one year,
about fifteen or so years ago, and he goes on
(30:06):
to say, don't blame the tigers. No, no one should
blame the tigers. Tigers are in captivity. Tigers didn't ask
to be in captivity. And yes, the tigers are going
to kill people on occasion because why they're tigers.
Speaker 5 (30:21):
The tiger just went tiger. You cannot blame a tiger
that has been forced to do tricks to not just say,
you know what, mofo, watch tomorrow when you walk up
to me, I'm gonna wait till you turn your back.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
And that's your ass. You do know that you don't.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
But I'm saying people sometimes forget all animals have bad news,
bad moods, they have bad days. They're like any other
living creature. You know, catch them in the wrong moment,
bad things are going to happen.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Oh you ought to see the cat videos to allen
I send each other when they when they turn on
their on their pretty Yeah it happens to the worst
of them. Yeah, they put the years back. You know
you're you're gonna get messed up. Also, imagine how pissed
a Tiger would be after years of being forced to
say they're great yet means.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Come on, Mark, I hate you with a passion. How
did you bring Tony the Tiger into this freaking frosted
They're not your things. That's the only Tiger you could
thought of. What what did you want? I don't know
(31:35):
what's tiger? Were you open for shoot?
Speaker 4 (31:38):
No, we can't go. Tiger. Tiger was never attackeded ball
to anyone.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
No, he only attacked prostitutes or no porn stars, porn stars, pornitudes.
