let's start off as we always do. Let's put our
ears at the ground, our fingers on the pulse, let's
see what's happening in this great, big, wide world of ours.
And we go to a football fans house. It's just
an interesting reason why we're at the home of this

(01:38):
football fan. I guess he's such a big fan of
football and his team in particular, that after his team
loss this past weekend, he posted on his Facebook page,
probably gonna kill myself, I'll.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Let you know, okay. And he was posting.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
This, I guess just in a fit of rage and
just as some sort of joke to his friends.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
But one of his friends called.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
The police because they thought he was really going to
off himself. And this is the police officer at the
front door, doing a wellness check on the football fan.

Speaker 1 (02:12):

Speaker 3 (02:44):
A laugh haha reaction. That's her post.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Yeah, so at least one friend thought it was funny.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
But of the fourteen reactions in twenty three comments, one
of these people or another person who saw it and
didn't do.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Anything, called the police.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
It was like, hey, my friend said that he's gonna
harm himself online.

or texts. And I'm sure that the twenty two twenty
three comments that we can see just on this screenshot alone.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
Have been you know, half and half, Like.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
It's clearly somebody gets the joke from the haja reaction,

reactions were all thumbs up. There was no hearts, no hugs, no,
none of that stuff.

Speaker 5 (04:13):
Because they're from Dunko, they get it.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
He sounded so frustrated. He's just like, come on, no,
I'm not gonna hurt myself. Jalen hurts through three GD interceptions. Man,
he turned the ball over. You know, I looked that
he got into the stats with the police officer.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
What's crazy is how fast he like wraps this off
because he so wraps this up. Becaus so irritated that
the cop is talking to him here this Eagles fan.
So yeah, he posted that he was gonna off himself
on Facebook.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
The cop showed up to do a wellness check and he's.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
Like, look, man, Jalen hurts fumble the ball a whole
bunch of time.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Do you not know the dogs are?

I mean, yeah, come on, I get you're doing your job,
but get off my porch.

Speaker 3 (04:51):

Speaker 2 (04:51):
If the cop joined in and was like, well, yeah,

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Right? Oh? Man? Football fans, you guys are something else.
I gotta give it to you.

Speaker 9 (05:31):
Man.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
It was like there's a level of a fandom associated
with the NFL that you don't see anywhere else. Maybe
in soccer like globally or something, but where people say
we when they're talking about the team, they're like, you know,
we lost, we did this they and then they cry,
They break televisions, they post stuff like this online and

(05:52):
then the cops show up. It's boy, it's another world.
It truly truly is. So there you go, we just
have it to be here. Oh I only saw a
little bit of the game last night. Did they end up.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
Pulling it off?

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Or no? Okay, I mean I only looked down for
a moment and looked at the score.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
I said, ah, the Dolphins are playing.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
I didn't watch it only because I knew my fantasy
team was going to get beat by thirty one points.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
And they didn't, so we lost.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
That was But I've made it to round two of
the playoffs, which I think is farther than I've ever done.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
So calling at a w for.

Speaker 5 (06:27):
Me, but to post on our Facebook, You're going to
off yourself.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Right, No, no, no, Facebook, don't do that. Please, just
to clear the deck here before we get five thousand
texts Sea Land, can you look up the score of
the Yeah.

Speaker 5 (06:41):
It was twenty eight Steelers fifteen Dolphins.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Okay, twenty eight a record.

Speaker 5 (06:45):
At six eight and the Steelers eight six.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
How fun?

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Well is that going to lead to a situation?

Speaker 3 (06:51):
Because I did see the clip yesterday where the guy
from the Chiefs I think, was doing a press conference.
Let me see if I could pull this up, and
he's like, I think we got a pretty good chance
at making the postseason and they're like, nope, you didn't
make the playoffs.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
He's like, oh, okay, it's like in the middle.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
By the way, huge, pat yourselves on the back. Everybody
who is in the sports broadcasting world or just news
in general, and got through being able to say that
the Dolphins were six and seven and not have anybody
say anything stupid.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
Yeah, true, Thank god. Actually I think there was somebody
who did. We'll get to that in a second. Here's
the chiefs player I was talking about, still have fighting chance.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
As you are.

Speaker 9 (07:36):
You are.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
So bad, We still have a fighting chance about that.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Anything goes way, we're out of the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
Still have a fighting chance? Are we out of the playoffs?

Speaker 6 (07:55):
We are retraction?

Speaker 3 (07:57):
Okay, Like I was like, okay, all right, well I'm
gonna go. I'm gonna go off myself to send the
police right to his house.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
Round and dogs at bark and Patrick Mahomes, torres a
c l.

Speaker 3 (08:18):
Oh, god there you are. Yeah, just so you know, Celan,
let me let me give this to you here. It
is everybody.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
I'm Joe Buck along with the Hall of.

Speaker 3 (08:27):
Famer Troy Aikman. Let's talk about the Miami Dolphins. They
come in with a record of six and seven, six seven.
You knew it was gonna go.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
You knew it was gonna as.

Speaker 8 (08:39):
The gun point at Troy Aikman right now, because that
was the most forced to laugh I have ever heard of,
and his facial expression had not changed.

Speaker 5 (08:49):
Maybe he's kids, I'm a kid.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
Thing he's doing this God so bad, so bad, almost
as bad as before. Really get into the serious stuff
here today, and there's a lot of things.

Speaker 5 (09:04):
Death be a knocking before the end of the year.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
I like, when we get to the Rob Reiners story. Here,
there's potential that two other insanely famous people, one of
them being Barack Obama, but another person insanely famous could
have possibly been victims in this whole thing, and more
and more twisted turns in that case. We'll get to

(09:28):
that in a second. But I did want to talk
about something I bitched. I don't know if I'd say bitched,
maybe you could say bitch. I bitched on the show
the other day about our Christmas tree here at the house.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Courtney has done up the Christmas tree.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
And even each year it gets like more and more
and more and more and more and more. And then
she goes, oh, I found yesterday, She goes, I found
six more ornaments and put them on the tree. And
I'm like, where was there even room? This tree is
full of ornaments. It's got lights everywhere. This tree is
every millimeter in the tree is covered. Okay, I've seen

(10:01):
it absolutely everywhere. That is one thing that's happening a
lot out there, and I said, I think it's a
little bit too much. However, the other thing that people
are doing this Christmas is the naked Christmas tree, and
I support that even less. Okay, yeah, like a lazy
son of a bitch. If you there, people are just

(10:21):
putting out the Christmas tree. No lights, no lights, no star,
no no stars, go under it.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Presents go under it. There's a little like skirt underneath.

Speaker 5 (10:32):
I said, they're not wrapped presents, right, because we're.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
Going raw dog Christmas. A raw dog Christmas is not great.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
Now. I did want to have Amazon Christmas, and there's
been a couple of gift exchanges between just exclusively my
father and I where we have.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
Not wrapped them.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
But it's you guys did a raw dog Chris in
an Amazon box and that was enough for us.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
Because you don't know what's in the box. I mean
half the time we do know what's in the box.

Speaker 3 (10:59):
Here you go through some rots in there to throw
you off, so you don't know what you're holding.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
But I think the idea of naked Christmas tree is
even worse than the dad jokes thing that my dad
has ever done. And he was so proud of it,
and his friends thought it was funny, and I was
just embarrassed. Where my dad didn't get a tree one year,
I think this was clearly post divorce, right, my dad.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
Didn't get a tree the year the year.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Be Lane gave up. I'm not putting the tree.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
He took out a ladder, a step ladder, and just
just you know, spread the thing, put it there, wrapped
Christmas lights around it, and plugged him in and that
was his Christmas tree for the year.

Speaker 3 (11:45):
That's a dog Christmas.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
I think a naked Christmas tree is worse. I mean
the latter thing got some laughs.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
Not for me.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Hated it, but his friends. You know, he had some
friends over. They drank a bunch of beers and like, ah, tree,
we love it.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Folks on chat, how do we feel about the raw
dog Christmas tree? The completely naked Christmas tree? Just you
pull it out of the box, you kind of adjust
all the branches on the fake Christmas tree and no star,
no ornaments, the opposite of Courtney, no star, no ornaments,
no garland, no lights, no, nothing in a little stand

(12:23):
with a little skirt, and it's just a tree. It's
just a tree in your house. And that's that's worse.

Speaker 5 (12:29):
That tree is just asking for at this point.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Yeah, I think the tree of the skirt is I
think that this is a worst it's ugly. Hold on,
let me see I can find an example Christmas tree
minimal list. It's like this naked Christmas tree.

Speaker 5 (12:47):
That should not be under the minimalist category.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
It's like this, all right, you just there's just a tree.
There's just a tree there. There's nothing on it.

Speaker 5 (12:58):
A tree that's like a shrug.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
It's a Christmas bush.

Speaker 5 (13:01):
This isn't Charlie I have going on right now.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
Style Christmas tree. Nothing on these suckers. There's a whole
story about this today. I mean the news is, as
I said, everybody's kind of quiet quitting here in the
end of the month and the end of the year.

Speaker 5 (13:17):
Really it's a lot of people with guns apparently.

Speaker 3 (13:20):
Yeah, well yeah, it seems like they're on a bit
of run here. But it says celebrities are doing this
a lot. People are saying ornaments are a must stop
doing this. But no ornament or nearly naked tree is
gaining popularity. I don't like him.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Do you think celebrities ever get together and go, hey,
you know what?

Speaker 3 (13:41):
I think we could do get people to do stupid stuff, like.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Like if Kim Kardashian and her friends were like just
drinking wine at a party one day and one of
them goes, hey, I bet if we post a picture
of a tree with no ornaments, we can get a
lot of people to done.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
This will be the biggest thing we've done since we
all sang imagine during the pandemic. Guys, this is really
gonna change everything. Okay, all right, when we come back,
we'll get into these new jaw dropping details on the
Rob Reiner murder. Him and his wife killed at their
La home. Some celebrities that were almost there. There was

(14:20):
a thing that happened, another thing that happened at the
party Sea Line mentioned yesterday beforehand. We've got all of
that to illuminate this story a bit. More more about
the Brown University situation. Clips Galore a Crazy Share the
show Tuesdays on Deck, so don't miss out that is
coming up next on the News Junkie Crazy details coming

(14:57):
out today and a story that was already crazy about
Rob Reiner, and this guy, huge, huge force in Hollywood,
was behind some movies that definitely you've seen at at
that point.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
We watched a few Good Men last night, did you
really ye man?

Speaker 3 (15:13):
The hold up?

Speaker 1 (15:14):
Oh yeah, that's a great movie. Rob Reiner, very talented
guy everybody.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
And it's so young man like h it's thinking about
like Kevin Pollock, who sure who played Moish Mazel in
The Marvelous Miss masl Like, yeah, like one of the
was he was he the dad or no, the dad
was the other guy, but he was.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
He was in the family. And it's like to see
how young he looked.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
He's like almost different, right, yeah, I mean Tom Cruise,
Kevin Bacon.

Speaker 3 (15:41):
Rob Reiner just was in the new Spinal Tap movie.
He was. He was in that, I believe, and he
was still working on lots of stuff. And you had
a lot of troubles with his son, if you didn't know,
and him and his wife, Michelle Reiner were allegedly killed
by this son. But boy does it get crazier, and
boy are there more twists and turns? Okay, And one

(16:04):
of those twists is that there was a plan for
the Obamas to have been at the house at the
moment when this all went down.

Speaker 5 (16:13):
Wait, and at Reiner's house.

Speaker 3 (16:16):
Yeah, the Obamas were supposed to be at a meeting
at Rob Reiner's house. There was a planned meaning that
they had at the Reiner residence the day that all
of this went down, and I think they ended up
rescheduling for whatever reason, and they weren't there, and so
you can I mean, who knows what would have happened.
Maybe there could have been more bloodshed. I have no

(16:40):
idea what would have happened. I mean, I think there
could have been less bloodshed. You would think that the
Secret Service would have been there. Well, probably probably, I
don't know if they always travel, Like if he's going
to a friend's house, does he bring the Secret Service? Maybe?

Speaker 1 (16:55):
Probably, I would guess, right, just a secret service.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
Like no, you could have the night off, like hang
out at Rob Reiner's house.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
Yeah, but maybe then the sun goes.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
I want to go out in a bigger blaze of
glory here, get myself a gun and make this even
crazier because it seems like the violence was on his mind.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
So here's some of the new details in.

Speaker 3 (17:13):
The Rob Reiner story, and then we'll get on to
some other stuff happening out there. While homicide investigators with
the Los Angeles Police Department have said very little about
the investigation into the allegedly gruesome stabbing death of Rob
Reiner and his wife, Michelle Reiner, details continue to emerge
preliminary excuse me, though unconfirmed reports suggested the couple's daughter,

(17:35):
Romy Reiner, disco discovered her parents and called the police,
which is just terrible by itself. There that it was
the daughter that stumbled on her her parents in this condition.
Firefighters reportedly found Rob seventy eight and his wife Michelle
sixty eight inside the home, suffering from stab wounds. They
were declared dead at the scene. Police have not released

(17:57):
details regarding the arrest, but TMZ reported the couple had
their throats slit by a family member, possibly after an argument,
and the outlet also said after calling law enforcement, Romey
called Billy Crystal and his wife Janice, who arrived at
the scene in a flash and saw the dead bodies.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
So Billy Crystal.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
When he showed up, there wasn't anybody there yet. Billy Crystal,
Billy Christel showed up. It goes into the house and
there's Rob Reiner and the wife, not crime scene tape,
not cordoned off. Allegedly, this before anybody arrives. He got
there so fast he went in and actually saw what
the crime scene looked like. So that was another crazy

(18:36):
twist in this. The other thing is, I guess things
got even more weird at that party the night before
and Rob Reiner's son, who had showed up only because
the Hiners knew he was in some sort of explosive
mood and wanted to keep an eye on him and
make sure he wasn't doing drugs and stuff, so they said,
come along with us. So everybody's dressed up for Conan

(18:58):
O'Brien's Christmas party and he comes in in a hoodie
and his dad is embarrassed, like Jesus Man near a
disaster and he's in a hoodie. He's slunk him out
of the party and he keeps staring at people randomly
and making them uncomfortable. And they didn't know if perhaps
he was planning on getting violent, maybe at Conan O'Brien's

(19:18):
holiday party, because of all people, he had a confrontation
apparently with Bill Hayter of Cossonel fame.

Speaker 1 (19:28):
He goes up to Bill Hayter.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
Rob Ryner's son does before this murder, goes up to
Bill Hayter and starts trying to inject himself in whatever
conversation Bill Hater's having, and Bill Hater goes, hey, it's
a private conversation, do you mind?

Speaker 1 (19:43):
And he just stared.

Speaker 3 (19:44):
Bill Hayter said, he just like stared at him for
this uncomfortable, awkward amount of time and they thought some
violence was going to break out.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
And then I guess he went away.

Speaker 3 (19:53):
And I'm like, I think this guy was just waiting
to explode on somebody, be it the former president Obama
happened to be at the Rider's house. Old anybody, all
the anybody at this party at Conan O'Brien's, who knows.

Speaker 5 (20:05):
It's I don't know.

Speaker 8 (20:08):
It's screaming to me manic episode. And you I think
a lot of people have this understanding of manic being
like they're really hyper, but it is a whole different mindset.
But it doesn't matter, like there's just something in their
head and you have might you might have not talked
to the person for five, ten years, twenty years, and

(20:30):
if you're locked in, it doesn't like it's a tunnel
vision all seeing red and violence absolutely is attached to
episodes like that.

Speaker 5 (20:41):
But good god, yeah, how insane is that?

Speaker 3 (20:44):
I mean, it's just brutal to hear about this. And
he never gave up really on his son, Like even
in this these final days, he's trying to drag his
son along with him. He could have been like, you're
a grown ass man.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
See.

Speaker 3 (20:56):
I see stuff like this all the time where people go, oh,
this person's son is now homeless, shame on the family
for leaving this person in this condition. And I'm like,
that's sweet, that's sweet that you've never been through anything
like this, and you don't know what it's like to
have somebody give up on you so many times and

(21:18):
do all this crap to you over and over and
over again. So when you finally just let them go
and maybe they're homeless or maybe they're addicted or whatever.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
And now the weird part is you get to watch
it better now because a lot of the homeless people
still have Facebook pages And no shame.

Speaker 3 (21:34):
That's true, that's absolutely true. This kind of stuff is
more commonplace than you might think. But Rob Reiner, seemingly
with every reason to do the opposite, was still fighting
to do the best by his son.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
He's old, he was like eighty years old, almost all right.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
And his son is old, grown ass man, acting like
a child, like a little you know, nepo baby, and
the worst sense of it, and never doing the right thing,
always just being absolutely obnoxious. And his father fought and
fought and fought and fun did projects with him, and
did tours and podcasts with him and did everything.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
And this is the thanks you get at the end
of it.

Speaker 3 (22:17):
Because there are maniacal, violent, deranged human beings out there
who do stuff like this. It's the one of the
unfortunate things about actual life. Then they said, afterwards, Rob
Reiner after his son, after killing Rob Reiner and his wife,
killing his father and his mother, then went to a

(22:39):
hotel room where the hotel room was completely covered in blood.
They said, so like, I mean, I guess this guy
had it all over him and went back to his
hotel room and it was just an absolute and total mess.
So we'll keep an eye on the story. More and
more developments coming in. Let us know what you think
about this, give us your thoughts. Seems to be something
where everybody's kind of on this same page, but we

(23:01):
shall see, all right. A couple of emails coming in

good quality if you go give it a peek. This

many others in the content world. That's what I'm trying
to be ahead of. So thank you for taking a

(25:37):
part in all of this, and go check it out,
have a laugh, and enjoy yourself. Get the rest of
run theewsjunkie dot com right now. All right, we are
going to take a quick break. When we come back,
I have maybe the most infuriating story of the week.
Ok this is one about Christmas shopping that if you
don't know, is going to have an impact on your life. Okay,

(25:58):
this will change what you do for Christmas shopping. Do
not miss what we're about to talk about that is
coming up next on the news Chunky. Christmas time is

(26:25):
upon us, friends, and that means you got to buy
a whole bunch of stuff. And I must say that's
the worst part of Christmas. It is it's like, uh,
did I buy the thing? We got something for? I
don't want to say who it is. One of the
people on our Christmas list, all right, And Corney and

(26:45):
I were.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
Like, okay, this is what we'll get and we'll do this.

Speaker 3 (26:48):
And we bought it right through their website, which looked,
you know, was advertise on Instagram, looked totally normal and stuff.
And then Corney gets the thing for the tracking numbers
and it's all in Russian and the president is now.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
This She's like, oh my god.

Speaker 3 (27:06):
The president, the president in the president we ordered is
in Ukraine right now. It's slowly making its way a
little and I'm like, holy cow, it's miserable making sure
everything across the front lines you're right, all right, and
then on to the next country and hopefully over here.
It's stressful. It's bad, but there's even crazier information that

(27:28):
will affect how your holidays go, I think, and not
enough people are talking about it. So this particular story
is from ABC News and I had not heard of
this before, but maybe you guys were familiar I'm going
to bring up the actual story, and it says from
ABC News what to know about the new return fees

(27:51):
from retailers for holiday gifts. And again, maybe you've heard
of this, but it says new and I've never heard.

Speaker 1 (27:58):
Of this before in my life.

Speaker 3 (28:00):
What ABC News says this holiday gift giving season, some
retailers have changed their return policies. All right, here's what
you need to know. Here, here's everything shoppers need to
know about the new fees and timelines. The National Retail
Federation says nearly three quarters of all stores charge some
sort of return fee, which is money customers won't get

(28:23):
back when buying a package online and returning it by mail. Marshals,
by the way, a return fee eleven.

Speaker 5 (28:30):
Ninety nine, and they like to Marshalls.

Speaker 3 (28:33):
TJ Max eleven ninety nine return fee, Macy's nine to
ninety nine, a return fee J C Penny eight dollars,
Jay Crew seven dollars and fifty cents, all of these
different outlets. They get pissed off because they make all
these sales during the holidays, and then people put the
gift receipt in with the president, and then so many

(28:56):
people return this crap. To buy something they actually like,
and then now they're starting to charge you for it.

Speaker 5 (29:02):
And this is like in store return.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
To mail them back in most cases. Yeah, and they
have like return deadlines. For instance, if you bought anybody
anything on Amazon, they only have it until January thirty
first to return it. Otherwise you're screwed. Walmart's same target
January twenty fourth, Best buys even shorter January fifteenth, and
you get a return charge if you do this. If
you go to the store, you don't get this necessarily,

(29:29):
but if you're going to return some of the crap
you bought online because they're upset about people doing this,
they've now added all these return fees. And I heard
this is just the beginning, all right. I've heard from
some people who work in the industry. You ain't seen
nothing yet. They're going to start adding return fees to

(29:49):
so much of the stuff that you buy online during
particular periods of time. Are there any times that you
can think of on the top of your head, sabrandon
Selan where somebody might buy something only to return that
thing afterwards, annoying the company that's selling it. What are times?

Speaker 1 (30:08):
What time?

Speaker 3 (30:09):
What time would you think like, oh, it's this time
of year, super Bowl, super Bowl is the number one
time if you go out and you buy TVs online,
they're going to attach big return fees to those prior
to the super Bowl. I thought they.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Did like temporary, like they abolished the return policy for
you know, a couple of weeks before the super Bowl
or something.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
They should in some place.

Speaker 8 (30:36):
They probably do storefronts like isn't Rentaiscenter? The reason why
that exists is so that you could rent a TV
for super Bowl and give it back.

Speaker 3 (30:46):
Renascenter is usually not sure. I thought, yeah, but you
don't rent something for a day. That's not how I
don't think I saw the model works at those places.
Reno's rent to own, you know.

Speaker 8 (30:56):
Yeah, well you know what business idea audio trademark, rent
a TV for super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (31:02):
Rent the TV for I'm sure something like that exists
out there, but they don't want you to buy the TV,
put it up.

Speaker 6 (31:11):
On your wall.

Speaker 3 (31:11):
Your friends are all like, whoa one hundred inches damn.
And then afterwards you're like, take that son of a
bitch down, it's a waste of money, send it back.
The return fees are just getting started at these places and.

Speaker 8 (31:26):
If it's not return fees, you'll get flagged. Like I
know I would say two to three people that have
been put in Amazon Timeout for like a year because
they much absolutely not okay.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
I'm actually I know people that I'm surprised or not
an Amazon Timeout.

Speaker 8 (31:43):
I certainly returned, but there's a lot of stuff where
I'm like, I did this to myself, and I will
put it back in the packaging and it is.

Speaker 5 (31:51):
Going to be a gift for someone later.

Speaker 3 (31:53):
You I'm just saying, you've talked Sabrina on the show
about like returning a lot of stuff. You'll buy the stuff,
you'll you'll use it, then you'll return it and you'll
bring it back. And so you've never been flagged. They've
never sent any sort of emails, no messages, no nothing.

Speaker 8 (32:07):
They're like, this girl spends too much money with us.
There's no way, like my ratio of return versus keeps significant.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
Mine used to be I never returned anything, and then
Cordy told me, you're an idiot, what are you doing.
I would buy something, maybe it cost one hundred dollars,
and then I'm like that time right thing.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
And sometimes it was tiny.

Speaker 3 (32:29):
Sometimes it was like just the wrong thing, and and
I go, damn, I'm an idiot. I was too busy
in the moment, didn't pay enough attention, so whatever, and
I would just throw it away or try to give
it to.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
Somebody or something.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
She goes, we were right down the street.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
We could just return this thing.

Speaker 3 (32:44):
It's so easy.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
We started to do it a lot more.

Speaker 3 (32:47):
I think a lot of businesses are seeing a rise
in these things, and it's super duper expensive. Cyclone Ranger
on YouTube SAIDs never knew Amazon had a time out.

Speaker 1 (32:55):
Well, they do for.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
Stuff just except yeah, because there'll be people who prank
cyclone Ranger.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
They'll prank Amazon.

Speaker 3 (33:05):
Cyclone Ranger is a great name. By the way. I
think there was a guy on TikTok or something.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
He was on one of the social media.

Speaker 3 (33:14):
Platforms, and his entire bit was he was going to
get back at like Bezos. He orders an anvil every
month and then returns the anvil through Amazon and just
purchase an anvil return anvil. If you don't know what
that is. It's a big, giant weight, giant, huge thing

(33:38):
and he just buys it and returns it over and
over and over again. These places are probably tired of
all of this, But if you run into this through
the holidays or for other reasons with return fees, let
us know your experience.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
Send a dispatch over.

Speaker 3 (33:50):
At thenewsjunkie dot com right now. Some people are mad
at Saturday Night Live. I saw for various things some
of the cast members suck this year. I guess some
of the people are not happy with that. I've seen
complaints over and over and over. About two or three
of the cast members that are just absolute duds. Is
Jane Wicklin. That's the one I see a lot of

(34:12):
Miss Jane Wicklin that I see. Jane can't read a
Q card to save her life. No, that's all she
could do. Or she reads the QUE card. You can
see her looking at it, but like.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
She can't look away from the Q card to save
her life. So while like the first season, she she
did some sketches, but she does a lot of weekend
update stuff. Got she's young, and she does songs and
so they like, you know, they like having people. They
always want their next Adam Sandler, isn't she h Yeah

(34:43):
her her mom used to be Lorne Michael's assistant.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Oh, I'll do it.

Speaker 5 (34:48):
I mean, there is some funny too.

Speaker 8 (34:51):
I haven't seen SNL, so I did see like clips
that have gone viral. But I am now just a
little bit more shook if that we are. I mean, Sean,
you are almost twenty years older than her.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
How old is she?

Speaker 3 (35:03):
She's twenty three, twenty twenty six?

Speaker 1 (35:06):
Oh okay, well yeah, I mean I'm not forty six.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
Just for the record, I don't want to put that down.

Speaker 5 (35:10):
I said almost twenty years.

Speaker 3 (35:13):
Yeah, but I mean I'm forty four and I just
turned forty four.

Speaker 5 (35:17):
You're eighteen years older.

Speaker 3 (35:18):
Than Yeah, I mean you're an adult older than her.
I'm not very surprised. I only want their Here's my
whole goal in life, Sabrina, Okay, I only want there
to be one person on whatever thing I'm watching to
represent me. So like the idea that Philip Rivers was

(35:38):
playing in the NFL this week, and Philip Rivers is
the same age as me, I was like, that means
in some alternate universe, I'm still of age to play
in the NFL, and police.

Speaker 5 (35:52):
Lorne Michaels represents you, but there's.

Speaker 3 (35:55):
Nobody on the staff. I don't think how old's Keenan
lt is Scenon's getting up there. He looks yes, yeah,
I would say he's forty one.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
It's my gap for oh, so I'm good.

Speaker 3 (36:10):
I'm good on SNL. In that case, there's somebody on
the they just got to start being funny. You know,
I'm working on hair out. A little bit of time
needs to go by. SNL was called out. This is
what people are mad about because they said that they
used AI during one of the bits and it was
just like an image that they put up in the

(36:32):
background of Weekend Update.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
By the way, they had a hilarious while you pull
this up pre recorded skit this week that was like
move over Spotify wrapped, here's the thing you didn't ask for,
Uber eats wrapped.

Speaker 1 (36:47):
It's like all this stuff about you.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Know, how much money you spend and how many different
restaurants you went to, and then like, what's your Uber
eats age.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
It was really good, really well done. That's smart.

Speaker 3 (36:58):
I like that. Actually, they showed this image from the
Weekend Update segment with a woman who looks strikingly like
my mother and she's at a slot machine with an
oxygen tank gambling, and somebody said they're using AI over there,
and then what we want them to do They wanted
them to get a real photo of an old lady

(37:19):
with an oxygen town.

Speaker 1 (37:23):
You might be a fighter if you spent long enough
at a gazina. But that is so dumb.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
They're the anti AI people who if anybody in the world,
and I mean anybody posts like an AI image, they'll
be like, take it down, AI stupid, it's take a
job stab AI did it? Oh god, oh god. Almost
everything on SNL is overstaffed, and they still have plenty
of humans working there.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
All right, just dial it down.

Speaker 3 (37:45):
Unless you two were offended by this, hit us up
with your thoughts on a dispatch. Record your message right
now at thenewschunkie dot com. When we return, we'll hear
from you. We got to talk about this mystery in Miami.
I don't know if this popped up on your radar
or I.

Speaker 1 (38:02):
Heard about it yesterday. It's kind of crazy.

Speaker 3 (38:04):
You guys seen this story about the woman who died
in the freezer at the Dollar Tree.

Speaker 1 (38:09):
Did she die in the freezer?

Speaker 3 (38:11):
She died in the freezer?

Speaker 5 (38:13):
First question. I know they had freezers a Dollar tree.

Speaker 3 (38:16):
This woman was and it went into a Dollar Tree
and they found her. She died in the freezer in
the dollar tree, like the.

Speaker 5 (38:24):
Back freezer are the ones that you could find.

Speaker 3 (38:27):
Like no, like, I think they have food and stuff
in some of these And so the story is weird
and gets weirder. We'll give you some of the details
on that. Plus have you been worried about this whole
license plate frame situation, Worry no more. The clarification from
the state of Florida for those of you who have
been worried. That is coming up next on the News Chunky.

(39:06):
We'll get to you your feedback, your emails, your dispatches,
all of that, and just a bit here on the show.
But first I want to put a lot of you
at ease because driving around this weekend, I was just
kind of going with my gut here. But looking around,
I said, I think a lot of people have gone
to the steps of taking off their license plate frame

(39:27):
in Florida, in particular with these new laws coming down,
because people are so confused about what the hell's going on.
Somebody in chat during the break was like, I got
pulled over this weekend. All I have is a dealership tag,
the frame that they gave me with my car around it,
and they pulled me over and they talked about this
that just for that, just for the license plate frame

(39:53):
being a reason to pull this person over, and then
they ask other questions after that, which is stupid and
so bad, so domb and so wrong, and one of
these things where absolutely it can infringe on people's rights.
You don't want the law enforcement to be able to
pull over like fifty percent of the populace because they
have some questionable license plate holder or license plate frame.

(40:16):
And I looking around this week and I said, oh,
I think a lot of people.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
Have taken these off.

Speaker 3 (40:20):
I saw them just raw dog in their license right there.
The license plates were just right on the car with
screws in most of the cases. But now we actually
have some clarification. And this is good because hopefully this
will trickle down to the police, who are you know,
trying to enforce this and in some cases just pulling

(40:40):
over people with well the same damn license plate frame
that I have, if I'm honest with you. So here's
what we need, say, Sean, come on, everybody's got these things,
is your license plate frame? I drive your car to
be pulled over. I still drive. I just don't drive
my car quite as much. That is the question Florida
drivers and law enforcement officers have been asking. After a

(41:03):
new law went into effect on October first, there was
so much confusion the state had to issue a clarification.
Florida Statute three twenty two six to two upgrades the
penalty to a second degree misdemeanor for anybody covering or
interfering with the visibility of a license plate's primary features.
Primary features specifically including the plate number and the validation

(41:26):
sticker in the top right corner. But despite the law's
intense enforcement and interpretation vary widely across the state. They
have said in different places like Okoe, Florida, if a
frame or cover hides even a small section, it can
lead to a traffic stop at a citation. Those citations
can be as much as five hundred dollars. That'll ruin
your Christmas right, And now they've issued this this thing

(41:49):
from the Sheriff's office and from others that says the
plate frames are permissible as long as the action license
plate number is visible.

Speaker 1 (42:03):
So your license plate number as long as.

Speaker 3 (42:05):
You can see that, and your registration sticker, as long
as those are fully visible, you're fine. A plate frame
that covers the information at the top is permissible, all right,
So the top or the as long as they can
identify the state. Yes, as long as you can tell
what state the license plate is from, it doesn't matter

(42:28):
if you're covering like the URL or or any of that.
This is a clarification coming down the pipeline.

Speaker 5 (42:34):
And all law enforcement is aware of that, right.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
That's the problem.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
The problem is the misinformation or sort of like the
unclear information comes out. Everybody goes don't want to get
pulled over, don't want to get fined, and so people
either take them off entirely or just kind of risk it,
and law enforcement just starts pulling over people randomly. Then
they clarify, and then it could be like maybe a
year from now. All the law enforcement hasn't totally heart

(43:00):
about this, so they said, as long as the license
plate is visible, you're good to go. There are a
lot of different people who have weighed in on this,
but this is the Department of Highway Safety and Motor
Vehicles that has issued this clarification. Let me bring this
up here so I can fully see what's going on

(43:20):
with them. Okay, here's the Department of Motor Vehicles to
all law enforcement agencies obscured license plates. It says the
Act does not prohibit the use of a license plate
frame as long as the frame does not obscure visibility
of the following the alpha numeric plate identifier in the
decal located in the top right hand corner of the

(43:43):
license plate.

Speaker 1 (43:44):
So those are the key things.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
They do not consider the information on the bottom of
the plate to be a primary feature of your license plate.
A plate frame that impinges on the information at the
top of the plate is permissible as long as they
can identify the state that.

Speaker 1 (43:57):
Issued the plate. So there you go.

Speaker 3 (43:59):
If you could see what stay it is, if you
can read the license plate number, if you could see
your registration, none of the rest of it matters. Unfortunately,
you might still get pulled over because of all the
confusion for this.

Speaker 1 (44:12):
How about that you just hand it to them.

Speaker 3 (44:14):
Look at it.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
This is your people.

Speaker 3 (44:16):
Your people sent this along the Florida Highway Safety and
Motor Vehicles folks sent that out.

Speaker 1 (44:21):
Thank god, you folks, and New York don't have to
deal with this.

Speaker 3 (44:25):
It's been a bit of a mess around here, and
I think a lot of people have reacted by just
taking it off to try to prevent any other problems
from happening in their world. So let us know your
thoughts or if you've been pulled over or whatever your
experiences are. Send a dispatch at thenewschunky dot com or
email the show tips tips at thenewschunky dot com.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
New York has their own like.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
The set of things they got to deal with, though
don't they still have inspections.

Speaker 3 (44:51):
I got regular inspections to New York fans of the show.
That is a nightmare. I don't know why you are
letting your politicians keep pushing you through that rigmarole. When
I was young and my parents had to do the
inspections all the time, it was so annoying and stupid.
And the name of like fixing the ozone layer, it

(45:14):
wasn't really big on climate change at that point in time.
That wasn't the Doomer obsession. It was more like some
climate stuff and air purity and the ozone layer and stuff.
That was a lot of CFCs. But you get the point,
and you would go into the place you would pull
your car.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
Did you guys ever have to do this or is
this over?

Speaker 3 (45:32):
No?

Speaker 1 (45:32):
I never had an inspection.

Speaker 3 (45:34):
You had to pull your car onto these cars, this
tumbler thing, and you had to drive your car at
the speed that this little screen was telling you you'd
be hit the gas at the gasown, I don't think.
So you had to pass, and they put a thing
in your exhaust to see what your exhaust was was
eking out, and if you didn't pass, you had to
get your car fixed so it was cleaner. And if

(45:56):
you did, then you get your sticker. That is a
nightmare to New York.

Speaker 2 (45:59):
I used to hear about people that would keep their car,
like New Yorkers that would keep their car registered in Jersey,
so they just just to avoid that m M, which
seems uh not.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
I don't blame, but.

Speaker 3 (46:13):
I don't.

Speaker 5 (46:15):
Interesting.

Speaker 3 (46:16):
I guess people used to get tricky about stuff like
this and try to remove like a catalytic converter off
of their car, which if you don't know what that is,
it's the thing that people steal a lot because yeah,
it's got like precious metals in it or whatever, rare metals,
rare earth metals, it's got stuff in it that's worth money.
And it simply cleans the exhaust filters the exhaust from

(46:37):
your car to keep it up with regulations, but they
have stopped doing that in a lot of states, and uh,
I think, yeah, just having to keep doing that seems
like a nightmare to me. I we still got to
talk about this woman at the Dollar Tree, which is
just kind of insane. The story's out of control, but
the details will have to wait just a moment. Let's
go over to a couple of dispatches. Here is Anger

(47:00):
Paully talking about the license plate situation. Good afternoon, junkies.

Speaker 10 (47:05):
So my bar, we donate to the Sheriff's Department and
one of the things you get is a license tag frame,
all right, which of course I have in my car.

Speaker 3 (47:18):
Which what a what a great thing? This is what
a great thing. Like if you donate to us, you
will get a license plate frame. And you're like, well,
why do I want the license plate for all?

Speaker 2 (47:29):
Because it shows all of the police that you donated
to them.

Speaker 1 (47:33):
I see.

Speaker 3 (47:34):
This is the same thing my dad did when he
donated to the Scam police benevolency.

Speaker 1 (47:41):
For days.

Speaker 3 (47:43):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the front window every year was covered
with like every year of I donated to the police
benevolency thing. I want to make sure if you come
here here, you know I'm one of the good guys.

Speaker 10 (47:53):
Pretty certain it got me out of a ticket recently,
but that's kind of a catch.

Speaker 3 (47:58):
Twenty two. What's your thoughts on that?

Speaker 10 (48:02):
I have a great day, guys, missis see.

Speaker 3 (48:04):
Lady there he goes. Love you, Polly, Thank you, PAULI Yeah,
I mean I think the whole thing is a mess.
They should have never rolled it out like this. This
is something that hamm's a lot with politicians, because politicians
are mostly stupid people who are solely seeking power, fame
more than anything, and certainly riches. We have the wrong
motivations for our political leaders in this country, and that's why,

(48:26):
in my opinion, they are all absolute garbage losers. And
all of these people will get together on issues like this,
and they're trying to fix people from scamming like the
pay tolls, right, and they don't want people to have
something that covers their license plates so the cameras can't
see and then find the person who is driving the

(48:47):
vehicle who didn't pay their tolls.

Speaker 1 (48:49):
That's the thing they're trying to fix.

Speaker 3 (48:51):
And then fixing that they cause all of this fallout,
which makes it worse with all the confusion. Just not
great actually, let's see here. We'll hold some of these
other ones for just a bit, but we can also
get to your emails over at tips at thenewsjunkie dot com.
Price sends along the Seminal County Sheriff's office thing.

Speaker 1 (49:13):
Yeah, we looked at that.

Speaker 3 (49:14):
That was the thing I looked at earlier where it
said the frames are permissible as long as you can
see the numbers and the letters on your license plate
and that registration sticker.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
Which that makes sense.

Speaker 3 (49:24):
But the problem is you get people confused and you
can't go back and fix all of this stuff. That
becomes a real problem. I guess Trump is addressing the
post he did that was very controversial about Rob Reiner's death,
and a lot of like even Republicans were saying, come on, dude,
this is terrible politics. What are you doing here? Trump

(49:46):
addressing that. Let's see what he said. Let's listen to
a number of Republicans have denounced your statement on true.

Speaker 11 (49:53):
Social after the murder of Rob Reiner.

Speaker 3 (49:55):
Do you stand by that post?

Speaker 4 (49:56):
Well, I wasn't a fan of his at all. He
was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned.
And he said, as far as Trump is, he knew
it was false, affectious, the exact opposite that I was a.

Speaker 6 (50:08):
Friend of Russia, controlled by Russia.

Speaker 3 (50:10):
You know, it was the Russia hooks.

Speaker 4 (50:11):
He was one of the people behind it.

Speaker 3 (50:13):
I think he heard.

Speaker 4 (50:14):
Himself in career wise, behind arranged Trump derangement syndrome. So
I was not a fan of Rob Reiner at all,
in any way, shape or for him.

Speaker 1 (50:24):
I thought he was very bad for our country. So
here's the problem.

Speaker 5 (50:27):
So that was it. That's his response.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
This is the problem that I have, Like we've we've.

Speaker 3 (50:32):
Gone to this place in the dumb political world where
everybody's rooted their feet into the sand now and it's like, hey,
this is how this side behaves, so I'm going to
behave that way. And after Charlie Kirk died, there were
all these people, some openly celebrating, including like teachers and stuff,

(50:53):
people who were just like saying, oh, it's okay because
here's here's a top five list of the worst things
that Charlie Kirk ever said, and people going, oh, I
hated him politically, so I'm not shedding a.

Speaker 1 (51:03):
Tear over this.

Speaker 3 (51:05):
And this behavior is becoming more mainstream, where like nobody
who's like these political people wants to give any ground.
So it's like Rob Reiner was brutally murdered by his kid.
That doesn't have anything to do with politics. Okay, there's
nothing about this that suggests anything to do with politics
led to this family being massacred by their crazy, violent

(51:26):
son in this house, which is why everybody's against this
kind of stuff. Normal people at least are against these
kind of things. People when they die, if you could
just have like a second of time to go, damn,
that sucks. That's brutal that that happened to their family,
and it does. Nobody's politics or political messages should matter
in that moment.

Speaker 1 (51:47):
For most people, it doesn't.

Speaker 8 (51:48):
Even as the President of the United States, I even
saw maybe give the opportunity to rework the words, and
instead he just talked about his you know, hashtag Trump
derangement syndrome.

Speaker 3 (52:05):
I even saw I forgot who there was one of
the actors that's right wing and puts a lot of
stuff on Twitter and hated like Rob Broner's politics was
on Fox News and he's like Rob Reiner. I loved
him because he didn't even care about my politics. He
helped me read like jumpstart my career again.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
And although we.

Speaker 3 (52:25):
Agreed on nothing in the political world, he could put
all of that aside. Rob Reiner also the guy who
after Charlie Kirk died, was like, Hey, this is bad,
this is wrong, This shouldn't happen. These kind of things
are tearing our country apart.

Speaker 1 (52:39):
So it's just dumb.

Speaker 3 (52:41):
It's just dumb and bad, and everybody should stop acting
these terrible ways in public and the political world. And
obviously I can include the president in that list. It
was gross when people did it with Charlie Kirk, and
there was a lot of you weirdos that did that,
and it's gross to do it. For this case, you
don't even need to do the thing. We're like, I
didn't agree with the guy, but I don't want to
see any anybody get massacred. Just be like, hey, this

(53:03):
is bad, and nobody should get their throat yes or
say nothing. Nobody should get their their throat slit. Nobody
should be murdered in cold blood in their house by
their crazy son. If that's just bad, it should be well,
you know what I say it should be. It is.
It's the easiest thing in the world for like the
eighty percent of Americans who aren't hyper political weirdos who

(53:23):
agree that these things are are the way I'm saying,
we're going to take a quick break. When we come back,
we'll talk about this woman at the Dollar Tree in
Miami and what happened here. A lot of question marks.
If you haven't heard this story, it's a weird one,
weird one. I want to talk about that. We'll get
to more about Brown University and what's going on there.
We'll get some more feedback on the roast. A lot

(53:45):
of you have been watching that, Thank God over on
Theewsjunkie dot com and much more on to share the
show Tuesday. It's coming up next on the News Junkie.

(54:11):
This is the weirdest story I think, maybe of the day,
possibly of the week, who knows. But there's a big
mystery about this woman who went into a Dollar Tree
in Miami and they found the woman dead in the
freezer of the Dollar Tree, which is very strange.

Speaker 1 (54:31):
For a lot of reasons.

Speaker 3 (54:33):
I also didn't know that there would be a freezer
section of a Dollar Tree store.

Speaker 8 (54:40):
I guess it makes sense. I mean, there is a
food section. Don't go there often.

Speaker 3 (54:45):
Let's get this out of the way. Dollar Tree no
longer means as of a long time ago. Everything costs
a dollar, right, costs a tree of dollars. It's that
more stuff is cheap there, and a lot of it
is like, you know, cheaper than you would expect elsewhere.

Speaker 5 (55:03):
But great stuff too. I love going there for like random.

Speaker 8 (55:08):
Little gifts or gift bags, decorations.

Speaker 3 (55:12):
Favor when I go there for picture frames.

Speaker 2 (55:14):
I used to go there for picture frames because it
was like I need to spend a lot on a
picture frame.

Speaker 8 (55:18):
And then no offense to Dollar Tree or any dollar
type store. But I don't know if I'm gonna trust
like a pregnancy dust over there, you know, yeah.

Speaker 3 (55:30):
Tell me they don't have birth control options at the
Dollar about this before probably I still think this is
a terrible idea. Then I'm sure I could go back
and check my take on that one. I double it
down here. It's not not great condoms. Maybe the rest.
So this woman goes to the Dollar Tree store in Miami,

(55:52):
all right, she looks like a young woman that this
is the person that I'm seeing right here, and they've
find to her dead. This is her frozen in the
Dollar Tree. This is her alive and well, they find
her in the freezer section. She's completely naked from what
I heard from some of these reports, and they don't
know why the hell she was there or what went down.

(56:14):
Let's get some of the information. Local ten in Miami
was covering this. I want to see what they said.

Speaker 2 (56:19):
A Dollar Tree store, please say a woman was found
dead in a freezer.

Speaker 5 (56:23):
A bizarre story.

Speaker 3 (56:24):
Investigator is now racing to find out how she ended
up there. Local tans Worri Ramos.

Speaker 1 (56:29):
Ramos is live in Miami with the disturbing details.

Speaker 3 (56:32):
This woman was thirty two years old, so she's not
like some old person on a silver alert that's wandering
her way into a Dollar Tree and she zombie walks
into the Dollar Tree and then moves along from there.

Speaker 1 (56:46):
It's it's a younger woman here.

Speaker 9 (56:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (56:50):
An investigators say she wasn't forced in that area inveck.
Surveillance cameras show her walking to this area where that
breezer is located alone.

Speaker 1 (56:58):
Buy her set.

Speaker 3 (56:59):
That's horrified.

Speaker 12 (57:00):
A day after a woman was found dead inside a
freezer at this little Havana Dollar Tree, and we watched
as Miami police returned to the store Monday to continue
their investigation into how and why she ended up there
a shoppers still confused with what led.

Speaker 13 (57:14):
Up to her death.

Speaker 6 (57:16):
It makes me think, could that be an accident?

Speaker 3 (57:18):
This is a weird move. Just for the record, they're
asking this guy who's on the side of the road
to Miami and he's got his hat and sunglasses on,
and he's with what appears to be his wife and
his two kids, little kids. It's Christmas. They're wandering around,
maybe they're doing some Christmas shopping or something in the neighborhood.
And the news goes up to him and goes, did

(57:39):
you hear about the woman who walked naked into the
freezer at the Dollar Tree right there that's died turning
into a popsicle overnight? And this guy's like, oh, okay,
let the people with the kids go by. You don't
want that to be something that enters the kids' minds.
I don't think stumble in there. It was Sunday.

Speaker 12 (57:58):
Crime scene tape blocked off the entrance of Discouch store
off Southwest eighth Street in Ninth Court after Miami police
said the body of thirty two year old Helen Masiel
got Is Sanchez was found like she.

Speaker 3 (58:08):
Was just a guest shopping at this not even working
there or anything like that.

Speaker 6 (58:11):
That's that's really scary.

Speaker 12 (58:12):
That is Sanchez is described in this go fundme page
as an anesthesiologist originally from Nicaragua. There was a mother
of two children who sadly lost her life while visiting Miami.

Speaker 3 (58:23):
Yeah, the other thing is that's crazy. I guess she
was just in town visiting and they're trying to do
a GoFundMe to get enough money to send her body
back to where she lived in Nicaragua. They're like trying
to get enough money to send her.

Speaker 5 (58:36):
In the freezer.

Speaker 1 (58:37):
That is the question.

Speaker 3 (58:38):
How did and some of the stories that she was
naked in there and see if they mentioned vacation, this
is what happened to her. That's that's horrifying.

Speaker 14 (58:47):
In the corner of the store, naked female, the workers
don't recognize her.

Speaker 12 (58:54):
Investigator said she was found just after eight am by
an employee at the Dollar Tree, And it appears got
is Sanchez walked into the store by herself Saturday night,
didn't make a purchase, but made her way to a
restricted employee.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
You see, these Miami police officers didn't make a purchase,
but made her way.

Speaker 3 (59:10):
Let me see if I can stop this all right,
this is very Miami Miami police officers. First of all,
there's a female officer, which you know, you see that
a lot more these days, the Miami police officer.

Speaker 1 (59:22):
They have like shorts and like.

Speaker 5 (59:25):
They're not Miami, very human and not this time of year.

Speaker 3 (59:29):
Yeah, right now, look at this lady has like short
shorts on as part of the police uniform that she
has when she's at this place. Here, this particular woman
when they back up, you see like they're like shorter
shorts that they have. Miami cops are a little different.
I guess there she is. So they all went in
there to find out what was going on, and they

(59:51):
found this woman's body. She's nude. She's in the freezer.
They don't know why. It's crazy that any of this
happened to begin with. Let's see what else they said.

Speaker 12 (01:00:01):
And the medical examiner still has yet to determine an
official cause of death. As for the dollar vase right
here behind me, well, they've issued a statement that says
they are offering their condolences to the victims family and
cooperating with police during this investigator.

Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Right, let's see, just out of curiosity.

Speaker 3 (01:00:16):
See lets see if you can find the GoFundMe for
this particular family. Her name is Massiel Sanchez m Assi
E L L. Sanchez Sa nchec deray g A r y.
Are you okay? Hold on, here's the GoFundMe right here. Yeah,
Garray Sanchez. That might be your middle name or something

(01:00:38):
or there. She is doctor okay, yeah, he Helen Gray
maybe that is her name from Nicaragua. Trying to raise
twenty thousand dollars two hundred and thirty eight donations. They're
at twelve seven hundred and thirty six dollars according to
the GoFundMe in front of me.

Speaker 1 (01:00:53):
She was just on vacation in Miami.

Speaker 3 (01:00:56):
She goes naked into the freezer at a dollar tree
waterer's in there. No one knows why, No one knows
what the hell is going on here, very very bizarre story.

Speaker 5 (01:01:07):
Vibes are weird, man, something.

Speaker 1 (01:01:09):
Something that makes sense there, Something doesn't add up.

Speaker 2 (01:01:11):
But it's weird that they ruled out foul play, because
foul play was like the first thing that I thought of.
Like they said, she wasn't forced into the freezer. I
know they somehow know that.

Speaker 3 (01:01:20):
Yeah, she just walked in there. That's the strange thing
to me about this. Let us know what you think.
Couple of things real quick before we find out what's
going up in the next episode. This is Mary who
emails the show. I think let's see or Henrietta. Hi, Sean.

(01:01:40):
It was about an hour ago or half hour ago.
You talked about return fees on the show. However, the
stores are making up their own regulations and fees for
services rendered. On the other end, there's a surprising fee
being added when you purchase online before shipping and handling,
plus taxes, and a new added tax has been added.
It's called a tariff tax. This is terrible. I'm a

(01:02:01):
shock that this has been added to a purchase order.
They said, I could see a person time after time
returning something if you wanted to charge them, because they're
taking up the merchant's time. Secondly, about the fees they
do charge if you pay your bill with a credit
or debit card. Most of the major companies are charging
fees up to nearly twenty dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
It's extortion.

Speaker 3 (01:02:20):
She's talking about the case of being nickeled and dimed.
In the United States of America. You get your paycheck
digitally if you want to get cash out. You have
fees in some cases using different ATMs. You have fees
if you use cards because there's processing fees. You have

(01:02:40):
shipping fees, you have handling fees. You have taxes and
sales taxes. And starting to sound like some sort of
Doctor Seuss rhyme here at some point.

Speaker 1 (01:02:50):
But there's so many different.

Speaker 2 (01:02:52):
Things, taxes on axes and no taxie boxes exactly exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:02:58):
It's a lot.

Speaker 3 (01:02:59):
It's death by a zillion cuts, which is I think
what people are kind of tired of. And at the
very least, if you're going to cut us a zillion
times and bleed all our money out, you can stop
telling us that you don't have enough money to provide
basic services for people in the United States of America.

Speaker 8 (01:03:14):
They're going to get a lot of them with those
new license plate tag fines.

Speaker 3 (01:03:19):
We have been just completely goosed out of all of
our money, and then at the end they're like, wow,
we need more. All we need is a little bit more, okay. Also,
thank you to some new Secret Show subscribers jumping on board.
Kim Bo Blake, see thank you Blake, Jennifer g all

(01:03:40):

Speaker 3 (01:03:52):
To look at the roast event over there. Okay, when
we return, we're going to do the next episode with Sabrina.
What's coming up on the next episode, what's.

Speaker 8 (01:04:02):
Coming new on the next episode, and some of this
might be from yesterday.

Speaker 5 (01:04:07):
You better watch out, you better not cry.

Speaker 8 (01:04:09):
It doesn't matter because everyone dies and the Grim Reaper
is already in town and looking at you, Hollywood. The
story has surfaced about how the Grinch almost did not
steal Christmas. It wasn't for one Navy steal and multiple cigarettes.
Plus Taylor Swift's crew is in their big ass bonus
era because she's rich. Ooh, I'll that so much more

(01:04:29):
coming up on the next episode.

Speaker 3 (01:04:31):
And that is coming up next on the News Chunkie.

Speaker 1 (01:04:51):
We want to make sure you're part of the show.

Speaker 3 (01:04:54):
All year long, I mean even around the holidays here
so you can if you want reach out to us
with an email like tips at the Newsjunkie dot com.
This is one sent from Peter, and he said, hearing
you talk about that poor woman in the freezer made
me think of this South Park episode where Cartman freezes

(01:05:14):
himself in order to get a Nintendo Wii. I do
not remember that. I do not know if that's closed.
I just know some weird happen with this called a week.
Is that what it was? That's the hold your wee
for a week is a whole different thing. But in
the radio world, they generally don't want us to do
that these days. The latest thing is they're more just

(01:05:37):
concerned over the fact that we are human beings. We
are real humans here on iHeartRadio, not robots.

Speaker 1 (01:05:45):
Seems like kind of a promise.

Speaker 3 (01:05:46):
Maybe that means that they're going to keep up with
hiring humans and not go the AI route.

Speaker 1 (01:05:53):
If so, iHeart good on you keep that.

Speaker 3 (01:05:55):
Going and keep that stock price going on, Keep that
stock price going on on, be real, be about things.
We got a bunch more clips to get into as
the show rolls on, more info in the Rob Reiners situation,
Brown University, the whole shebang. It's all on the way
in a moment right now, Let's get into it. Let's

(01:06:15):
do the next episode, because there's a lot on TV,
and you can't possibly keep up with all of it,
even though you should, because what else are you going
to talk about?

Speaker 1 (01:06:23):
Whoa one hundred inches?

Speaker 3 (01:06:25):
Damn nothing. Weather's nice. It's time for the next episode
with Sabrina. Hey smoke, hold up.

Speaker 8 (01:06:39):
The next episode brought to you by that Mortgage Guide
on That Mortgage Guide on dot com and the Home
Loans Radio show. If you are looking to refinance by
a first dream home, maybe it's debt consolidation time, or
maybe right after the holidays.

Speaker 5 (01:06:55):
Just work with someone who's got your back. He is
really smart. Guys, very very but he's real chill about.

Speaker 8 (01:07:01):
It, Like six seven turns into eight nine for all
the millennials looking into it's not even millennials, that's.

Speaker 5 (01:07:09):
How old we are now.

Speaker 3 (01:07:10):
Yeah, probably gen Z at Genalpha Genolfa.

Speaker 8 (01:07:14):
If you're looking into buying your first dream home, that's tough.
Just work with someone who's got your back, and that
is that mortgage guy.

Speaker 5 (01:07:21):
Do do miss.

Speaker 8 (01:07:22):
The Mortgage Guy dot Com?

Speaker 1 (01:07:29):
Ready to feel old, not always, but sure.

Speaker 8 (01:07:32):
Thirty one years ago, nineteen ninety four, this was released
in theaters. Drummer, Oh Bird, Pretty Bird, Jeff Daniels and
Jim Carrey's hit as Harry and a Lloyd. Uh Dune
are done done, Garry done done? And uh Chris Moss

(01:07:56):
or Christmas Christmas Chrismas and uh here we are thirty one, Senator.

Speaker 3 (01:08:00):
That's what it is.

Speaker 1 (01:08:02):
It was way off.

Speaker 5 (01:08:03):
So you're saying there's a chance, all right, and that's
the only one.

Speaker 3 (01:08:08):
Our pets heads are falling off, pretty bird.

Speaker 5 (01:08:13):
Uh. Our celebrities are dying too.

Speaker 8 (01:08:17):
Yeah, and this one did not meet his evil twin
just Heaven's gateswee bit adude to eight Time Daytime Emmy
winner Anthony Jerry. Oh no, it was passed away, beloved
by generations of television viewers, including I believe Sean's mom
at some point because he played Luke Spencer on General Hospital.

Speaker 3 (01:08:41):
Ohatched that.

Speaker 5 (01:08:43):
Yeah, she was Days of Our Lives or All My Children.

Speaker 3 (01:08:46):
I think she was kind of running the gambut on
that one. I think she liked multiple of the soil.

Speaker 5 (01:08:51):
Was a good old day.

Speaker 8 (01:08:52):
So you don't have to like, there's no battle like
of soap opera fans not even have to stick to
one of them.

Speaker 3 (01:08:59):
No, I mean, I think people did have their ones
that they liked more than the others, and it depended
on how much drama drama you wanted, Like my mom
kind of my mom kind of liked the stuff that
was more almost telenovella kind of thing.

Speaker 8 (01:09:11):
It's like, it didn't make sense that that person died,
but all of a sudden they're back, and.

Speaker 3 (01:09:15):
Like he's back because he's the triplet, and you're oh, okay, wow,
I cam shocking.

Speaker 8 (01:09:20):
That also helped if you had time during the day,
But now he has time forever because he passed away
at the age of seventy eight years old. The death
was the result of complications from a scheduled.

Speaker 5 (01:09:32):
Operation three days earlier, so double check yes.

Speaker 8 (01:09:37):
Weeks before his death, he was seen watching former co
star Jeanie Francis appearance in Maurice Bernard's State of Mind
podcast her husband or his Her husband Jerry's husband, Claudio Gumma,
posted the video.

Speaker 5 (01:09:53):
It really made Tony very happy.

Speaker 8 (01:09:55):
He told me, those are two lovely people and talented people,
great friends, and I missed them. And then he died,
so may he rest in peace and joined the General
Hospital in the Sky.

Speaker 3 (01:10:09):
Those of us here at eat hospitals in the sky.

Speaker 8 (01:10:12):
You don't know that, but they need drama, it'd be
soap operas well, my children's hospital.

Speaker 3 (01:10:19):
All of the drama, apparently, if you're on broadcast television
comes from police, paramedics or working in a hospital, because
that is like eighty percent of the television shows they
are cranking out.

Speaker 8 (01:10:29):
Based on my household, it's a Meredith first sight. It's crazy,
it's not stop and I don't get it. But here
we are back on Earth and if you are part
of this scal's crew, congratulations on that big old bonus.

Speaker 1 (01:10:46):
Ah, Taylor Swift.

Speaker 3 (01:10:48):
Ye, Yeah, but of.

Speaker 8 (01:10:50):
Course no one knew about it until you saw the
new six part series Taylor Swift The End of an Era?

Speaker 1 (01:10:56):
Have we heard what the numbers are of these actual bonuses?

Speaker 5 (01:11:00):
So they like blurred it out?

Speaker 1 (01:11:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:11:01):
I saw a TikToker Instagram or something well of her
handing them out, But they did blur the numbers.

Speaker 3 (01:11:07):
It said between something in like one hundred and fifty
thousand or something.

Speaker 5 (01:11:12):
See I heard seven hundred and fifty thousand.

Speaker 3 (01:11:14):
Oh God, be insane.

Speaker 5 (01:11:16):
But she's also made a lot of money.

Speaker 3 (01:11:19):
What's crazy is in this world it doesn't matter that
much because people will go, oh, she's got so much
more money. Than that.

Speaker 1 (01:11:26):
She should have given them even more.

Speaker 3 (01:11:28):
And it's no.

Speaker 8 (01:11:29):
But if you're getting, uh, I mean even a five
figure bonus.

Speaker 1 (01:11:34):
Great, look at it.

Speaker 3 (01:11:35):
It's great.

Speaker 8 (01:11:36):
And how I know it is for all the other
bands touring there, like, hey, guys, thanks so much.

Speaker 5 (01:11:40):
Here's a T shirt from.

Speaker 3 (01:11:42):
To be clear, I'm not coming down on Taylor Swift.
I think this is great. I think she did right
by people by giving them these bonuses, which she generated
so much money it's ridiculous.

Speaker 5 (01:11:49):
On her torm dollars on that shore.

Speaker 3 (01:11:51):
There's still people who are gonna be haters though, and
be like it wasn't enough.

Speaker 1 (01:11:54):
Now I do take issue. Here we go with the
idea that she needed to.

Speaker 3 (01:11:59):
Film her self giving the bonuses to these people to
begin with, I don't.

Speaker 8 (01:12:03):
Know that that's or I mean, I don't think it
did either.

Speaker 3 (01:12:10):
All right, let's see you want to watch this just please.

Speaker 5 (01:12:13):
People just look so hard and they are.

Speaker 3 (01:12:17):
It's a TV stand by crew.

Speaker 5 (01:12:21):
I hadn't been no, no, it took me weeks, but
it's fun to driven us.

Speaker 8 (01:12:26):
It's fun to to think about everybody's lives that the
voice has got to getting the time off.

Speaker 15 (01:12:31):
They're going to have any you know, the kids they
haven't seen because they've been away from months, and it's
just make me that worthwhile for them, is like really
it just it feels a Christmas morning when you finally
get to.

Speaker 5 (01:12:43):
Say thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:12:44):
She hand wrote everything, I guess for all of these
and wax sealed every envelope. Personally know you're rich.

Speaker 8 (01:12:51):
One you have a wax seal, not too shabby.

Speaker 5 (01:12:55):
Is that what you want for?

Speaker 3 (01:12:56):
And those are very expensive actually, but just for the record.

Speaker 5 (01:12:59):
You actually use it, that's the thing.

Speaker 8 (01:13:02):
But I want a wax seal or no, both of
you now.

Speaker 2 (01:13:05):
I think what you're getting close to though, is you
know you wax you're rich when somebody probably it was
probably somebody's job who then later got this bonus to
procure all of the envelopes, all of the wax near
the seal and then set up a room for her
at some point during the tour for her to be

(01:13:27):
able to, you know, to facilitate doing.

Speaker 8 (01:13:29):
All this filming the docuseries that are not part of
her crew.

Speaker 1 (01:13:34):
Did we get a bonus absolute?

Speaker 3 (01:13:37):
I see it handing out of shekels there.

Speaker 8 (01:13:40):
As a matter of fact, some people don't get bonuses,
but just pure torture, and now we have adults that
are getting to the bottom of it. A new HBO
original documentary called music Box Happy and you Know It
all Right, is going to examine why these songs torture

(01:14:02):
adults and the kids can't stop listening, including this.

Speaker 3 (01:14:06):
One almost as catchy as this is this song that doesn't.

Speaker 5 (01:14:15):
You say catchy but torturoist? Was that not used to?

Speaker 3 (01:14:21):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:14:22):
Well, that's why, criminals.

Speaker 3 (01:14:25):
That is why it works as a torture device, because
it's that catchy and even if you stop playing the
music for a second, the people would still have this
is the song that doesn't you know, just over and over.

Speaker 8 (01:14:38):
So Penny Lane, the award winning filmmaker, is going to
well she's already put this documentary together debuting Christmas.

Speaker 5 (01:14:47):
Night, which is nice, and it's.

Speaker 8 (01:14:50):
Going to explore the underestimated and wildly popular genre, delving
behind the scenes that's tell the origin stories of some
of the top names in the field, traces the evolution
of the prolific business, and how advancements in technology and
AI are reshaping and turbocharging this genre. Okay, so they're

(01:15:13):
gonna examine baby Shark Happy If you know it all
the people that have made stupid.

Speaker 5 (01:15:18):
Money, like Casper baby Pants.

Speaker 3 (01:15:22):
Oh yeah, Casper baby Pants.

Speaker 5 (01:15:24):
He's made a bunch of money.

Speaker 8 (01:15:25):
Others another person who's made a bunch of money and
we spoke to him. It's Chris bellew Bell from Presidents
of the United States.

Speaker 1 (01:15:34):
Oh yeah, that guy.

Speaker 3 (01:15:35):
Yeah, the guy from went from Beaches.

Speaker 1 (01:15:38):
And what was the other big song?

Speaker 3 (01:15:40):
The President said, Lump lump, she's lumpy.

Speaker 8 (01:15:45):
And uh, see why they're so rich because kids love
their music very exciting and uh, this almost was heartbreak
for a lot of us, at least for my mother
every single year when we watched this movie. But according
to a new story or at least reservice for some how,

(01:16:07):
the Grinch stole Christmas. The adaptation with Jim Carrey almost
didn't happen.

Speaker 3 (01:16:16):
That probably would have been better. You could have canned
that one, you know. God, I love that the regular
Grinch animated short. One nice little thing and a nice
little package.

Speaker 1 (01:16:34):
Good to go.

Speaker 3 (01:16:36):
All these Doctor Seuss movies suck because.

Speaker 1 (01:16:38):
Doctors didn't write novels.

Speaker 3 (01:16:41):
Doctor Seuss wrote short form books, and trying to turn
them into a long form piece of content like a
movie is impossible. And then you just get this piece
of junk that they put. If you ever talk all
those people that love the Cat in the.

Speaker 1 (01:16:55):
Hat movie, the two different movies.

Speaker 2 (01:16:58):
Cat and the Hat was so bad that it made
Doctor Seus's widow rethink saying yes to Doctor Sus movies.

Speaker 1 (01:17:07):
Did you think that Jim Carrey Grinch one was any better?

Speaker 3 (01:17:09):
I think I fine love.

Speaker 5 (01:17:12):
I love that.

Speaker 8 (01:17:13):
And it's twenty five years old and the story's now
coming out that it all nearly collapsed after Jim Carrey
threatened to quit and pay back the entire twenty million
dollars he was paid for the role, and what happened
next almost to get him a leave.

Speaker 5 (01:17:30):
So there was was it?

Speaker 2 (01:17:32):
Because he had to do four hours of makeup every
day or something.

Speaker 8 (01:17:35):
Like that, well, eight hours to be exact, to get
into the costume with the hair yack hair to be exact,
extremely itchy, you cannot scratch the itch because he had
ten inch long fingers, ladies, and he wore green contact
lenses for the role, though were extremely painful. He started
to have panic attacks and there was one person who

(01:17:56):
said I would see him lying on the floor in
between setups with a brown paper bag, literally on the
floor he was miserable after the first day of hair
and makeup, Carry threatened to quit, told filmmakers that he
would repay what he was paid, including interest, and that's
when film producer Brian Grazer called in the big Guns,
that being Richard Marcinko, a former Navy seal who trained

(01:18:18):
CIA officers and special members how to endure torture. So
he taught Carry a number of tricks he could try
to ward off panic attacks, many of which are a
bit unconventional, but write this down if you need it.
Litany of things like punch myself in the leg as
hard as I can. Have a friend that I trust,

(01:18:39):
punch him in the arm, eat everything in sight, changing
patterns in the room. If there's a TV on when
he starts to spiral, turn it off and turn on
the radio to the news. Junky smoke cigarettes as much
as possible, another one from Navy a challenge. So there
are pictures of Jim Carrey as the Grinch sitting in
the director's chair smoking chain smoking cigarettes in order to

(01:19:05):
get out of the panic and give us the masterpiece.

Speaker 5 (01:19:08):
According to just me Y, how the Grinch stole.

Speaker 8 (01:19:12):
Christmas on the boob tube unless you're watching that movie.

My God, that's on the way. More details about Nick
Reiner's odd behavior at that party right before he killed
Rob Reiner and his mother.

Speaker 1 (01:20:20):
What happened?

Speaker 3 (01:20:21):
That's coming up next in the news, chunk key, before
we get to your feedback, your dispatches, and your emails.

(01:20:45):
Some updates. The more I learned about this Rob Reiner
murder story, the more I know about how weird and
terrible of a kid this Nick Reiner was the son
who allegedly murdered Rob Reiner and his and his wife.
And the guy killed his dad and mom and slit
their throats. Apparently, according to a lot of these stories,

(01:21:08):
it goes back so far. Like I told you earlier,
Rob Reiner, no matter what you think of this guy,
he tried so hard with his son. He tried, and
he tried, and he tried to try.

Speaker 1 (01:21:19):
When Rob Reiner's son.

Speaker 3 (01:21:21):
Nick Reiner, was just fourteen years old, he was angry
because he hadn't yet had sex. I'm not sure if
you've heard this story before. Nick Reiner was upset. He said,
I haven't gotten laid, so my friends have gotten laid
at fourteen. At fourteen years old, okay, and Nick Reiner

(01:21:44):
goes into his parents' room and steals several hundred dollars
in cash from Rob Reiner and his mom, who would
eventually end up killing down the road.

Speaker 1 (01:21:56):
He stole several hundred dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:21:57):
From them, and he went out and bought a prostitute
and had sex lost his virginity to a prostitute with
money that he stole from Rob Reiner and his mother, Michelle.
And that's the way this kid lost his virginity at
fourteen years old. They like, this is the type of
person he was from a pretty young age. I mean,

(01:22:21):
there's lots of questions there also about the prostitute engaging
in sex with a fourteen year old. But you know,
it's been a while now, statute of limitations I'm sure
has expired, I would think. But he said he just
went on Craigslist and he was fourteen, and he stole
money from his parents and spent the money so he
could finally have sex and lose his virginity at fourteen

(01:22:43):
years old. That's the kind of kid that he was.
And the other details that are coming out are a
lot of them.

Speaker 1 (01:22:49):
Are not the prostitute.

Speaker 15 (01:22:50):
I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:22:53):
There, I guess.

Speaker 5 (01:22:56):
I guess so Anthony, Yes.

Speaker 3 (01:23:00):
I think Anthony keittis his dad got him a prostitutor
or something. Blackie, right, I think No, Blackie's Anthony Kitis
Ketus's dad.

Speaker 1 (01:23:11):
I thought that was the name of the prostitute.

Speaker 3 (01:23:13):
And I'm like, bye, goes calling out the race of
the prostitute that he.

Speaker 1 (01:23:21):
Of his dad.

Speaker 3 (01:23:21):
What what? What? What a year is it that I
called the prostitute a Blackie? You think, no, it's just
I'm almost positive now you guys are messing with me.
Almost positive. His father's name was Blackie and he bought
him a prostitute when he was young. Same kind of thing.
It's just like weirdo stuff. But in Rob Reiner's case,
he wasn't trying to do that, you know. Rob Brodner

(01:23:43):
was like trying to raise a normal kid. I guess
the other details of his kids and said, no not.

Speaker 1 (01:23:51):
This is from news or it says.

Speaker 3 (01:23:52):
Details emerge on Nick Reiner's odd behavior at the party
before the murder of his family. Guests report troubling behavior
and said parents voice concern over his health. Nick Reiner's
behavior at a Saturday night holiday party, reported the unsettled
guests just hours before his parents, filmmaker Rob Reiner and

(01:24:13):
Michelle Singer Reiner, were found dead in their Los Angeles home.

Speaker 1 (01:24:17):
Two people familiar.

Speaker 3 (01:24:19):
With the gathering hosted by Conan O'Brien tell NBC News
that thirty two year old Nick Reiner was disruptive at
the party. He left some attendees uneasy. One source said
Robin Michelle Reiner appeared embarrassed by their son's conduct and
voice concerned about his health that night. Sources also tell
The Rolling Stone the couple asked if they could bring
their son along because they were worried about him and

(01:24:41):
wanted to keep an eye on him at the time.
So like, this is how much he was trying with
his son, who is now very much a grown ass
adult who needed to get his s together and quit
being an absolute mess. But he's still trying to say,
I want to bring my kid along with me so
that I can keep an eye on him and make
sure he's okay. Sources tell TMZ. Nick Reiner seemed out

(01:25:02):
of place at the formal party, which he attended.

Speaker 1 (01:25:03):
Wearing a hoodie. This is just right before the murders.

Speaker 3 (01:25:07):
The sources say Nick Reiner was acting anti social, staring
at guests in a strange way.

Speaker 1 (01:25:13):
They said his behavior was creepy.

Speaker 3 (01:25:15):
At one point, according to one account, he interrupted a
discussion involving comedian Bill Hayter. When Hayter indicated it was
a private conversation, Reiner's son allegedly froze, stared, and then
stormed off. Nick was freaking everybody out, acting crazy. He
kept asking people if they were famous. I'm pretty sure
everybody at Codin O'Brien's holiday party, he's probably famous.

Speaker 2 (01:25:38):
Is Conan O'Brien's Christmas party? Kind of like legendary. Yeah,
they were talking about, Oh, you got invited to Conans.
I didn't get invited to Conan's.

Speaker 3 (01:25:47):
I think this is like the biggest names in Hollywood
that you could think of represented. The representatives for O'Brien
and Hater have not commented. One source says Nick Reiner
was living with his parents on and off in the
home where they were found dead. They all said he
had a history of violence. Friends were also aware of
the family's long running struggles with Nick's addiction. He had
spoken publicly about entering rehab as a teenager, later collaborated

(01:26:09):
with his father on the twenty fifteen film Being Charlie
loosely based on his experience with substance abuse and treatment.
And they said they tried everything with this kid. He's
been booked on suspicion of murder, being held without bail,
charges forth coming. They're going to be charging him pretty
pretty soon here and then they'll give us probably more
details on what this looked like. But there's some crazy

(01:26:32):
new info out there. You know, the idea that Billy
what's his name was, Billy Crystal was on the scene
before any of the cops were and apparently saw the
dead bodies of Rob Reiner and his wife because they
called him. We know that the assistant was on the
scene right away and saying how can I help you
out here? We know that you know, all this stuff

(01:26:54):
happened at the party of the night before. We know
that the Obamas were going to be there at the
Reiners household but last minute ended up not going and
they could have been at this place where this attack
went down. It's all pretty crazy, actually, so we'll watch
for more details as they come in, of course, on
that viral story. Meanwhile, a child brought into a museum

(01:27:15):
in China and Seel and I wonder how you'll handle
Jackson when eventually he wants to go to adult places
with you, like perhaps the museum, because this little kid
he goes into this museum in China. Watch this. For
those of you watching on YouTube and twitch, I'll describe
it for everybody else. It's up on sea it now
too are The kids go in and they're looking at

(01:27:36):
this crown. This crown is on display inside this museum,
a very very valuable art piece. And these young kids
come up, their parents not paying any attention in the background,
and they're leaning up against the display. One of them
try to take a picture. Oh, knocks the whole thing
over and on the ground. This dumb ass little kid.

Speaker 2 (01:27:59):
I'm sorry, it was superal. Why was that so easy
to knock over?

Speaker 1 (01:28:03):
It was pretty easy.

Speaker 8 (01:28:04):
You're not lying, toddler, but that is uh, he's almost
as tall as his own dad.

Speaker 3 (01:28:11):
It did seem like that was a little bit easy
to knock off the pedestal that it's sitting on. But
this is for real. It was created by an artist
and named Zong Kaii and her husband. According to a
jewelry specialist, it costs it's worth about fifty seven thousand dollars,
and they caused the crown, the two kilogram golden crown,

(01:28:34):
to fall and sustain damage. They're looking at it right now.
You gotta be careful with this stuff. So there you go.
The other thing I mentioned earlier that on Fox you
had people, including some Republican celebrities. Aren't many of those,
but Republican celebrities who were backing up Rob Reiner and

(01:28:55):
saying he people saying bad things about him, including the President,
shouldn't be doing this. I was talking about was actor
James Woods. James Woods, he's very much right of center,
Rob Reiner very much left of center.

Speaker 1 (01:29:09):
But I love it.

Speaker 3 (01:29:09):
I love it because they were evidence that there was
a better time and it was only like fifteen years ago.

Speaker 1 (01:29:15):
Everybody, these very.

Speaker 3 (01:29:16):
Political people don't want us to remember this time where
people could disagree about things and be friends and be fine.
Rob Reiner very very much disagreed with James Woods on politics,
but he also reinvigorated his career and hired him right
even though they just completely disagreed on this stuff. He also,
as I said, stepped out after Charlie Kirk was assassinated

(01:29:36):
and was like, Hey, this is absolutely horrendous, this is bad.
This stuff shouldn't happen. So that to me is a
good sign. And I guess James Wood was fighting back
against some of this criticism post murder on Fox News.

Speaker 12 (01:29:50):
Yeah, family, did you have any idea that this would
come at the hands of the Sun.

Speaker 3 (01:29:57):
No, I did not know.

Speaker 9 (01:29:58):
That was not I didn't know the children very well,
except Tracy because I'd also done a movie with Penny,
so Tracy was around a lot. And you know, I
just I knew them through work, and you learn everything
you need to know about people when you're working on
a movie.

Speaker 1 (01:30:13):
You know, it was James Woods.

Speaker 9 (01:30:15):
It was an extraordinary experience on that movie.

Speaker 1 (01:30:17):
I worked with.

Speaker 3 (01:30:20):
Rob and Whoopy.

Speaker 9 (01:30:21):
Whoopy and I were such Whoopy Goldberg played damnit.

Speaker 1 (01:30:25):
I was thinking of a different Whoopee.

Speaker 3 (01:30:27):
I could have been whoop Smith.

Speaker 1 (01:30:31):
And again Whoopy Goldberg.

Speaker 3 (01:30:33):
It couldn't be more diametrically opposed politically, But everybody got
together and did a movie together.

Speaker 1 (01:30:38):
Because most people are still normal like this.

Speaker 9 (01:30:42):
We got along so well, and people alreay shocked when
I speak.

Speaker 3 (01:30:45):
Well of Whoopy Goldberg.

Speaker 9 (01:30:46):
But I love Whoopie and I love the way she
treated me on the movie.

Speaker 3 (01:30:50):
And you know, it was a.

Speaker 9 (01:30:52):
Very happy experience and a very powerful one.

Speaker 3 (01:30:56):
And Rob's.

Speaker 9 (01:30:59):
Dedication to tell you the story He's getting choked Up's
assassination and the way In particular, Rob spoke and you
mentioned this. It was mentioned on Laura Ingram show about
how Rob talked when Charlie Kirk was assassinated.

Speaker 1 (01:31:18):
They said he was crying. I don't know if he's crying.

Speaker 3 (01:31:20):
Yeah, I think he just kind of sounds like he's
choked up a little bit, and he's obviously very very
upset about this.

Speaker 5 (01:31:25):
Do you think that whoever, what's the guy's name that's interviewing,
Who's who shows it? He's on Fox h this guy
all the time, but I forget his name.

Speaker 8 (01:31:36):
He's five said that he's not saying something more controversial.

Speaker 1 (01:31:43):
Or I don't know. I don't know what he wanted.

Speaker 3 (01:31:46):
Maybe they I don't know if they knew that he
was going to say James was was going to defend
Rob Ryner afterwards, Let's see how they engage.

Speaker 1 (01:31:52):
I think it's Jesse Kelly.

Speaker 3 (01:31:53):
Maybe I knew Charlie Kirk. I supported him.

Speaker 9 (01:31:56):
Uh, I'd seen him uh last year, just before Christmas,
and to know that he had been assassinated was so devastating.

Speaker 3 (01:32:08):
People such as.

Speaker 9 (01:32:09):
Horrible things and Rob did not. And when people say
horrible things about Rob right now, I find it quite
frankly infuriating and distasteful. Did I agree with his politics?

Speaker 3 (01:32:24):
I did not.

Speaker 9 (01:32:25):
Did I care as a friend, as an artist, as
an icon of Hollywood, and as a patriot, I most
certainly did.

Speaker 3 (01:32:33):
And I am just absolutely.

Speaker 9 (01:32:36):
Devastated by this terrible event, especially for his family.

Speaker 3 (01:32:41):
There you see, you see where he's going. There. He
was saying he doesn't like that people are coming after
him about politics when the guy was murdered, which is
a very normal take. I think. I think it's just
something that just absolutely makes sense to me. So that's
what we've got on the latest for the Rob Ryder Front.
Will take your feedback on this. I want to give

(01:33:02):
you the updates about Brown University because that's been kind
of just infuriating to watch the response to this whole thing.
Somebody sent along. I guess in Mexico City, they just
they're having a debate when things spiraled out of control.
I haven't seen this yet. Let's watch it together. Here
we go, all right, and get rid of his music here?

(01:33:24):
All right, they're all there's one person over a pod
and they're all like elbowing each other. There's only one
guy surrounded by these women. Oh no, he's fighting back.

Speaker 1 (01:33:35):
Now they're pulling each other's hair.

Speaker 2 (01:33:36):
Ahead, he's trying to get the one lady's grip from
the hair of the other lady.

Speaker 3 (01:33:42):
Well, see if you can find something about Mexico City
and why they're fighting, because it's all women. It's all
women behind this guy, and he's in the middle of it,
and they're pulling each other's hair and attacking each other.
So Trump, yeah, look, got Mexican lawmaker fight, and you'll
see exactly what I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 (01:34:02):
I'll put this up on see it now.

Speaker 3 (01:34:03):
I'm grabbing a screenshot right now, so we pop this
up on the website. I'm pretty intense back and forth
whatever it.

Speaker 2 (01:34:09):
Says, women lawmakers of rival parties jostling for position at
a podium in front of the chamber. The scene took
place during a debate over reforms to Mexico City's Transparency
Oversight Agency.

Speaker 3 (01:34:22):
Sounds like I know exactly what I have.

Speaker 5 (01:34:24):
Like allocated time for everybody.

Speaker 8 (01:34:27):
They kind of just have to line up if you
want to try the barricades for a concert.

Speaker 3 (01:34:32):
I do want to tell you this is the opposite
of what I was talking about just moments ago. Where
we are supposed to get along with each other despite
our politics. Dixon, et cetera, et cetera. This is the
very very opposite of that. But I'll bring it up
for you right now over on See it now in
the news junkie dot com. Members of the right leaning
National Action Party or POND we're protesting conduct by the

(01:34:55):
left leaning Moreno Party, which is the controlling power. PONN
representatives were holding their position at the podium as members
of the Marino Party tried to remove them, leading to
the scuffle. You're pulling each other's hair. It's a mess
over here, ladies. Come on, get on board with a message.
We're allowed to disagree with each other. We shouldn't be
pulling each other's hair. Go take a look at it
over on See it now on the newsjunky dot com.

(01:35:17):
They're all battling each other like crazy man. Cats and
dogs more cats. When we come back, we'll get to
updates of on the way. I've got another update on
the Anna Kepner Cruz murder mystery story. Believe it or not,
Erica Kirk met with Candice Owens. I'm sure that was fantastic.
We'll look into it. And ozempic for your fat cat.

(01:35:37):
What the hell all of that coming up next on
the news, Chunky, all right, lots of stuff to get

(01:35:58):
into here. Tarily, it's a crazy, crazy day out there,
so we'll get to all the coverage that we need to.
But first, good idea or bad idea? Everybody?

Speaker 5 (01:36:09):
Can I do you old bad after?

Speaker 3 (01:36:11):
You feel free to weigh in on whether or not
you think this was a good idea or a bad idea.

Speaker 1 (01:36:16):
I'm not saying I'm a genius.

Speaker 3 (01:36:18):
I'm not saying I'm a psychic, but I can predict
where this is going to go in terms of whether
or not you're going to say this is a good
idea or a bad idea. So let's get into it.
Here we go. We know there was this terrible terrorist
attack II inspired terrorist attack that went down in Australia.
His father's son duo of radical losers from Pakistan who

(01:36:43):
decided in the name of their religion to enact violence
on people for the sole crime of being Jews on
a beach. And as they did this, there were many
different people who responded, including a guy who's been deemed
a hero. Even had the Prime Minister Anthony Albin and
he's visit him in the hospital. This is the guy
who stopped one of the attackers. He may end up

(01:37:06):
losing his arm. He's injured in the hospital in a bed.
This guy, the Prime Minister is calling him inspiring with
a great story, saved countless lives. Like the most popular
dude in the hospital right now.

Speaker 5 (01:37:19):
You like you saw tackle the dude.

Speaker 3 (01:37:21):
This is the guy. Yeah, yeah, this is the guy
who came behind the gunman, grabbed him from behind and
he took one of the gunman's gun away. He did that, Yeah,
but he did that. The other one shot him twice,
so he may even lose his arm. This guy is
a hero. Not question whether that is a good idea
or a bad idea. But there are some other people

(01:37:42):
who were involved in this beach terror attack on Bondai
Beach in Australia and they're taking to crowdfunding in their
moment of loss, which you know, I'm not against specifically.
I'm not against that specifically for any reason. If you
lose somebody or if problems come up, I think sometimes

(01:38:03):
using a GoFundMe is okay. For instance, whatever happened to
this woman in Miami who waded into the dollar tree
freezer and took off her clothes and froze naked and died.
The family in Nicaragua, where she was in town from
the family wanted to raise some funds to fly her
body back the Nicaragua. Totally fine, a respectable thing to do.

(01:38:27):
Many people lost things in this tragic, unnecessary religious attack
in Australia, so it's okay if they want to take
to raising funds. Now Here's where the good idea or
a bad idea part comes in. One particular woman is
taking some heat because she started to gofund me of

(01:38:47):
her own problem being. This particular woman started to gofund
me for her her item that she lost during the
attack in Australia. This particular woman is asking strangers for
five hundred dollars to replace her stolen handbag, which was

(01:39:07):
lost in the chaos of the Bondi Beach attack. And
this woman said, everybody was terrorized and victimized here I
among them, and I now want to raise five hundred
dollars because I have to replace my IDs and my
mobile phone and my purse was stolen. So I want

(01:39:30):
to do a little crowdfunding here. So a good idea
or a bad idea in your estimations.

Speaker 8 (01:39:37):
It's a bad idea, the dumb one on her part.
But would I be surprised if someone donated.

Speaker 1 (01:39:49):
No, I'm trying to see if I can find the action.

Speaker 8 (01:39:53):
Oh for sure, it'd be a gofund me for because
that footage of the guy who took down the.

Speaker 5 (01:40:00):
You know, one of the assailants.

Speaker 3 (01:40:01):
That guy's a hero.

Speaker 8 (01:40:03):
Did you see the guy right afterwards? It just threw
a shoe at the guy.

Speaker 3 (01:40:06):
No, never do whatever they could, you know, he just
threw a.

Speaker 8 (01:40:09):
Shoot him And I thought that was going to be
the gofundmate to help.

Speaker 5 (01:40:12):
No, get a shoe shoe back just yet.

Speaker 3 (01:40:15):
But if that guy was at least trying to attack
somebody back, you know, throw the shoe and stop the shooters,
that's at least something I could be on page on
the page with that a little bit more than I
could be somebody who wants five hundred dollars for their ID,
their handbag, their purse stolen, et cetera, et cetera. But
join in on the action here on the show, tell

(01:40:35):
if it. Tell us if you think that's a good
idea or a bad idea over on the newsjunkiat dot com. Okay,
yesterday I talked a little bit about how Erica Kirk,
the wife widow I should say of Charlie Kirk, decided
that she was going to do a secret, closed door
meeting with Candice Owens, which if I was giving any

(01:40:58):
advice to Erica Kirk, I would say, this is a
very stupid idea. You should immediately cut off all contact
with this human being and you should never never interact
with her or give her any more of a platform
than she already has, because she's engaging in conspiracy theory
after conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory to incredibly dumb people

(01:41:22):
online who are susceptible to this because their brains are
broken in many cases. And I hope I'm not speaking
about you here, but she had a private meeting with her,
and they ended up talking about this, both of them
a little bit afterwards, and as I imagine, there was like,
here's Candas Owens. Erica and I had an extremely productive

(01:41:43):
four and a half hour meeting. Yes, good, many commercial breaks,
four and a half hours. It was just a private meeting.

Speaker 2 (01:41:50):
I want to talk to Candace Owens for a half
an hour, let alone four.

Speaker 9 (01:41:55):
And a half.

Speaker 3 (01:41:57):
Jesus A lot going on here. Wow. I think we
both feel we should have taken place. This meeting should
have taken place a lot earlier than it did.

Speaker 1 (01:42:08):
We agreed much more.

Speaker 3 (01:42:09):
Than I anticipated, Candice Owens said, of course, we also
degree disagreed on various points and people as well. More importantly,
we were able to share intel and clarify intent.

Speaker 1 (01:42:21):
I will, of course have a full rundown for you all.

Speaker 3 (01:42:24):
Oh yeah, the rundown. The rundown's coming in. And they said,
I wanted you guys to know absolutely nothing was held
back in the immediate result was that tensions were thought.
I'll tell you, I'll bet a billion dollars on this.
I know exactly what's going to happen here. Okay, I
will be the most clairvoyant of all clairvoyants. Even Erica
Kirk released her message, she was like, Okay, everything's fine,

(01:42:45):
We're moving on. This will last about a week, okay,
and then Candas Owens will keep doing all of the
things that she's doing. She will insinuate that Erica Kirk
and that TPUSA or whatever, the group that Charlie Kirk
has founded and left behind, and Erica Kirk's hands were
behind his murder, and that it wasn't really the person

(01:43:05):
who shot him with the rifle, and then all of
these dumb things that dumb people are gobbling up on
her YouTube channel. She will not stop this. This is
the type of person that she is. It will not stop.
They met for four and a half hours and it
will all be for not These grifters are going to
keep grifting. I just all I can say is try

(01:43:25):
not to give these people more attention than they would
actually get otherwise. But watch now, watch and see how
long it lasts before all of a sudden they're like,
I'm never talking to that person again because it will
end up in that place eventually. So there's what happened
behind the scenes there. We'll keep an eye on that
as well. Let's go to a couple of dispatches very
quickly before we get geared up for jury duty.

Speaker 1 (01:43:48):
Here is a.

Speaker 3 (01:43:49):
Big bad beard talking about the Grinch. I hope he's
not at support of that Jim Carrey Grinch movie like
you guys were. Jesus. That was a lot during the show,
the idea that you guys liked that Grinch movie with
Jim Carrey it's the worst. Do you at least agree
it's the worst Jim Carrey related movie. Ooh, what is

(01:44:10):
worse that Jim Carrey was in than the Grinch movie?
I don't think anything was worse than that. Even Cable
Guy was better than the Grinch movie. Cable Guy was okay.
It was interesting and kind of a strange way. The
mask dumb and dumber. Even as Ventura too. He was
in those Sonic the Hedgehog movies. Those were good, if

(01:44:33):
you know what you're expecting. They weren't good classically speaking
in terms of productions, but they were like a fun
little movie. And let's see what Big Bad Beard says.
Good morning, afternoon junkies. Hey, what morning, geez?

Speaker 13 (01:44:46):
Talk about the Afternoon Doctor SEUs stuff and the Old
Kat and the Hat movie. So I just heard on
another show on the station recently that the Michael Myers
like lost some sort of bed or some something and
as part of the repayment for that bed or something
like that, he had to do the role for whoever

(01:45:07):
was making that movie.

Speaker 3 (01:45:08):
I don't know if it was a bat. I thought
it was a court case. I thought Mike Michael Myers
or Mike.

Speaker 1 (01:45:14):
Myers stop calling him Michael. That nobody calls him.

Speaker 2 (01:45:17):
Nobody calls him Michael because you say Michael Myers.

Speaker 3 (01:45:20):
One thing comes to mind, Well, I am I supposed
to change mine.

Speaker 1 (01:45:24):
He's the one who sucks.

Speaker 3 (01:45:26):
No, Mike's the one who kills everybody. Mike Myers of
you know SNL fame, right, is what I'm talking about.
I think that he was in a court case. We
could look this up, Sea Lan and see if you
could find the story of the fact check me here.
I think that he was involved in the court case
and they as a result of the settlement, that he

(01:45:47):
agreed to play the cat and the hat in that movie.
I believe is what happened. But let's see what else
he says. And he hated it.

Speaker 13 (01:45:54):
He didn't want to do it, he said, he would
have never known it, but he was forced him to
do it because he owed him or money or something.

Speaker 3 (01:46:01):
I'm not sure, but.

Speaker 13 (01:46:02):
That's the whole reason he agreed to do that movie.
And let me tell you that movie sucked. It was horrible.

Speaker 1 (01:46:07):
Yes, fine, the Grinch.

Speaker 3 (01:46:08):
Is good man.

Speaker 13 (01:46:09):
Stop being a grinch, Sean, geez, we're.

Speaker 3 (01:46:10):
Talking about that. No, people are gonna get confused when
they hear your words, Big bad Beard. I agree. The
Grinch is good. The Grinch is genius. Very quickly, I'll
tell you why. In the entire world of all things Christmas,
almost everything was positive, beautiful, snowy smiles, families have it
a good time. All of the merch We're talking billions

(01:46:32):
of dollars in merch was all positive, snowy, fun, good
time Christmas stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:46:36):
And then the Grinch. The Grinch came along.

Speaker 3 (01:46:39):
It was like, ooh, now we can have something where
there's like the fun, edgy, anti Christmas side, and you
can have the Grinch merch and shirts and stuff. A
whole different side of this opened up because.

Speaker 1 (01:46:53):
Of the Grinch.

Speaker 3 (01:46:54):
That's great. It's genius, Okay, fantastic. The original Grinch animated
movie short, it's not very long, is quite good and
it's a classic, and I like it and I appreciate it.
All right. I'm saying the reboots and all these more
recent in the last quarter century attempts at taking very

(01:47:15):
short form books from Doctor Seuss and turning them into
an entire movie have been an abomination.

Speaker 5 (01:47:25):
God Cat in the.

Speaker 8 (01:47:26):
Hat with How the Grinch Stole Christmas from two thousand.

Speaker 1 (01:47:31):
I think they're both as bad.

Speaker 5 (01:47:34):
Lone man.

Speaker 3 (01:47:35):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:47:36):
I love that film.

Speaker 3 (01:47:38):
Let's let's see, let's see what what cat in the hat?
What's the rotten tomatoes on?

Speaker 5 (01:47:43):
I've never seen it?

Speaker 3 (01:47:45):
Says Myers, was obligated to appear in the film as
as a result of a settlement related to the cancelation
of a film he was supposed to do called Sprockets,
which was a film adaptation of another Saturday Night Live
sketch that he did. Okay, but it's so weird, like
he didn't even want to do this movie, but he
had to to to make good on a court decision.

Speaker 1 (01:48:08):
I guess this isn't the right one.

Speaker 3 (01:48:11):
This is because they've done The Grinch so many different times.

Speaker 1 (01:48:14):
The grin the Jim Carrey one? Is this one from?

Speaker 3 (01:48:18):
No? This is this is? This is coming up right? No,
it's it's now in theaters again.

Speaker 1 (01:48:22):
This is it right here?

Speaker 3 (01:48:23):
The Grinch? How the Grinch tole Christmas? From two thousand.
That's the Jim Carrey one, right, I believe fifty percent
from review critics, fifty nine percent from reviewers two hundred
fifty thousand. What does the Cat in the Hat one say? Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:48:38):
That one's got to be way worse. I got it here.

Speaker 3 (01:48:41):
Oh ten wow, look at the Look at the discrepancy
ten percent from reviewers for the cat and the hat
with Michael Myers, A hey, Mike Myers, and fifty eight
percent from the audience. Ten percent from reviewers, fifty eight
percent from the audience. I think both of them were
absolute rubbish. For once, I seem decide with the viewers,
who I otherwise want to see thrown up on the wall.

(01:49:03):
But here we go. Uh well, you know, although we
got we gotta take a break. We gotta take a
break when we come back. I got a couple of
emails to get into. Some people have some updates on
things we talked about. We got cats given ozempic here
with with some sort of medical breakthrough for animals. Our
animals are gonna be on ozempic next here. I guess
we got jury duty. We got much more as we
roll on, and to share the show Tuesday, that's coming

(01:49:25):
up next on the news Junkie. Somebody says I can't
find the roast, go to the website.

Speaker 1 (01:49:46):
All right, I'm on the neews junkie dot com.

Speaker 3 (01:49:48):
Okaya where bigger, bigger than our picture. I don't know
where you would ever find the roast on the website.
Maybe it's the big giant thing that says the roast
of Sean Watson. Maybe that's it. And then you go
over and you'll see the page for it. There's trailers
and everything. You can hit view details. You could buy

(01:50:11):
the video or the audio. It's all up there. Check
out the trailer. At the very least. If you have
a promo code that you got from the event or
from getting merch or anything, hit the button This says
applyed promo code.

Speaker 1 (01:50:21):
Did you buy the audio to test it out?

Speaker 3 (01:50:24):
Why would I do that? No, you would totally do that.
Do you subscribe to secret shows for like months? I
made a mistake? Yeah? No, I made a promo code
to test out to different things. What happens if you
just do this, because not only do I have to
tell the developers what I want for these sections of
the website, then I have to find out all of

(01:50:45):
the weird things like this nuanced? Is this? Yeah? Yeah?
And then I have to test them all. So I
think we're about good. There was a couple of small problems.
They should be fixed. Everything should be remedied, and it
should be at one hundred percent when there is an up.
They pushed tonight around midnight, so by tomorrow everything should
be really smooth. But I think it's already working really
well for most people. So if you checked out the roast,

(01:51:07):
if you if you missed it, I don't know how
you did that, but if you check it out, give
us your review over there on the news junki dot
com with an email or a dispatch. I talked briefly
during the break with the Skullmight crew, and I was
kind of surprised. I really was. I didn't know. Usually
I know exactly what the audience is going to think
about everything. I usually know what the demographic is, I

(01:51:29):
know how people think, I know what people listen to
this show. I know where you're gonna land at on
these things. But on this store, I was kind of
surprised because they're currently working on ozempic for cats, which
I know sounds weird, okay, but like, if we're.

Speaker 2 (01:51:48):
Gonna do this, we got to stop doing this whole.
Oh you know you shouldn't be doing ozempic because it's uh,
there's a shortage, Like the shortage is over right, yeah right, yeah,
that's they're past.

Speaker 1 (01:51:58):
That as far as I know.

Speaker 3 (01:52:00):
As far as I know, they've passed that, But they
are working on trying to get this to more people
because every human being on a GLP one is not
enough money for the pharmaceutical company. We need every human
and all the animals under the humans control. And so
I said, would you give your cat ozempic to everybody

(01:52:20):
on chat if you had a big fat cat and
the cat was to get ozempic to lose your t But.

Speaker 8 (01:52:27):
Does nobody said less happy or are they going to
have weird Real Housewives face?

Speaker 1 (01:52:31):
Nobody said yes.

Speaker 3 (01:52:32):
Nobody said yes that they would. The drug is called
meow one. Jesus, the drug meo dash one is the
name we already have, like an illicit drug called miomeo.
They did, actually yeah. Okava Pharmaceuticals has completed a successful
clinical trial for a feline weight loss drug nicknamed meow one.
The pet meds company hopes the drug will be available

(01:52:53):
by twenty twenty eight or twenty twenty nine. They said
it will be administered as an implant just below the skin,
which will slowly release the drug out of the cat's
system for up to six months.

Speaker 1 (01:53:02):
It will mimic.

Speaker 3 (01:53:03):
Many of these physiological effects of fasting without requiring significant
changes and feeding routines are disrupting the human animal bond
that often centers around food.

Speaker 1 (01:53:12):
A miracle for your animal. Your animal will lose weight.

Speaker 3 (01:53:15):
They say, But will you give your cat or you
know the dog inevitable version that follows ozempic. Let us
know what your thoughts at thenewsjunkie dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:53:25):
Here we go.

Speaker 3 (01:53:26):
Let's do jury duty, for it is now in session,
So put your phone down and pay attention before we
call the bailiff over to whip your ass. Your knowing
jury duty with the News Junkie. Jury Duty brought to
you by the one the only motor Wit of the
Wit Law Firm. Injured on the go, just call mo.
He is the best of the best of the best.
He's a good guy, been supporting this show for a

(01:53:46):
very long time. And also he is the attorney that
is going to help you out when times get tough,
when you get into an accident, when you get hurt.
When you get into a crash and you get hurt,
you should not feel bad about going after the insurance company.
They are greedy, billion dollar companies that gobble up your
money every single month, or rat you out to the

(01:54:07):
cops for not paying. So after you get hurt, your
back hurts, your neck hurts, your spine hurts, your leg hurts,
whatever hurts, go get some help and don't worry about
the medical bills because you're going to have somebody to
fight for you against those insurance companies eight hundred Callmo
eight hundred como or Justcalmo dot com. Okay, the Brown
University you think is out of control, to me, let

(01:54:28):
me recaut for you. They have nobody in custody. Okay,
we'll start without the release. We'll get there very quickly.
Somebody went into Brown University and shot the school up.

Speaker 1 (01:54:43):
Killed at least two people. I think there's.

Speaker 3 (01:54:45):
Somewhere around nine that were injured in a very severe way.
A mass shooting at Brown University. There were no arrests immediately. Somehow,
even though this went on for some extended period of
time with gunshots ringing out, the police did not arrive
on scene. This person was able to saunter away in

(01:55:05):
broad daylight, much like the person left the pipe bombs
in DC, or even the guy who shot and killed
Charlie Kirk for that matter, just sauntered right on out
of there after the attack, and they keep releasing this
footage that is so bootleg.

Speaker 1 (01:55:21):
Now, the only thing.

Speaker 3 (01:55:22):
I could tell is that black folks out there, you're
in the clear. Unless this guy painted his skin or something,
which would have been clever. But I can see now
a little bit of skin on this gentleman. I'm going
to assume it's a dude. He looks like he's a
little overweight, but who knows, and he's just walking away.
This is another person of interest they're looking for in

(01:55:44):
this shooting at Brown University, just stopping for.

Speaker 5 (01:55:48):
And forth. Nobody's look, you know what?

Speaker 3 (01:55:51):
Because this guy too is amazed. Hey where are the police?
I was supposed to get into a shootout? What the
hell is happening here? I left with my handgun and
now I'm just walking away. This is what they give us.
This is the best that we end up with in
these cases.

Speaker 2 (01:56:08):
Wan says it could be a fat suit, and I
mean that that would be quite fascinating.

Speaker 3 (01:56:15):
But he's if somebody did get.

Speaker 5 (01:56:16):
Behind the back, it's a natural fat I think.

Speaker 3 (01:56:19):
Now, who knows? Who knows what this person is? It
looks like it's a fat dude. Who's not black. That's
about all I could get from it. And congratulations those folks,
you're in the clear and off.

Speaker 1 (01:56:32):
The hook here.

Speaker 3 (01:56:33):
But they don't know who this person is, and the
investigation has been so slap dash, so weird. The school
has been miserable in their handling of this. The school
came out and the president of the school was like,
I don't know what's going on. I don't know what
was happening in the classroom. The reporter says, isn't that
a little bit concerning, ma'am? You've been here for six

(01:56:54):
hours working on this and you have no idea what
was happening in the classroom at the time of school
shooting took play on your campus. You are the president,
you are highly paid to be the overseer of security.

Speaker 1 (01:57:07):
On this campus.

Speaker 3 (01:57:08):
What do you know?

Speaker 1 (01:57:08):
And she goes, no, I don't know anything. She admitted
to it.

Speaker 3 (01:57:11):
I don't know. I don't know anything. The next press
conference was just as bad, and the next just as bad,
and here we go.

Speaker 15 (01:57:17):
From has said that Brown University is claimed for the shooting,
saying it's the school's problem.

Speaker 5 (01:57:23):
Is that their criticism or do you disagree with the president.

Speaker 4 (01:57:27):
Riel why not go university, will you.

Speaker 3 (01:57:32):
Guys, you're not intil the press over here they have
this guy said, you are lying to the press over here.
You have facial recognition.

Speaker 4 (01:57:41):
We know that they go, they follow the school, then
they follow everybody in the neighborhood.

Speaker 3 (01:57:46):
They need to release that they.

Speaker 1 (01:57:49):
So everybody know who is falling. Apart of that.

Speaker 3 (01:57:55):
Is the question.

Speaker 1 (01:57:58):
Chaos, John, Just for a second, a couple of things.

Speaker 7 (01:58:03):
First of all, Brown University and Brown Public Safety Police
Department has been a post collaborator throughout this process.

Speaker 1 (01:58:11):
Right, I do not accept that criticism.

Speaker 3 (01:58:12):
Come on, So he's saying, I do not accept the criticism,
and reporters like, oh, come on, get out of here.
The school has released nothing of significance other than two
blurry ass videos of this person who sauntered away after
a school shooting. And the mayor and all these other
people are like, we're all tired, we're all tired. Well,
I mean there's somebody on the loose in the neighborhoods here.

(01:58:37):
There's somebody Like if you are around this area, or
if you're at another school for that matter, the risk
is not evaporated yet. This is unhinged. And the FBI
I'm looking at you too, FBI. They arrested somebody and
then and this is not it wasn't that they arrested somebody,
announced a person of interest in the case that they

(01:58:58):
were going to charge. And when they came forward with
the person's information photograph, name, date of birth, and military
history and told us that they were allegedly the shooter
in this Brown University situation, it was only twenty four
hours before they did a one to eighty on that
and said, no, we let the guy go.

Speaker 1 (01:59:17):
He wasn't.

Speaker 3 (01:59:18):
So it's not just about like, I know, you're gonna
if you're investigating something, you're gonna go chase different leads,
and some stuff's gonna pan out and not pan out.

Speaker 1 (01:59:26):
But the FBI shouldn't be.

Speaker 3 (01:59:28):
Releasing all this person's information unless they are absolutely certain
it's the suspect, and the school should be delivering information
to the faculty, to the students, and the parents of
the students in the local community to make sure they're
doing everything they can to catch this person. They all
seem like incapable losers, everybody involved in this so far.

(01:59:50):
So I don't know. I'm only hoping that law enforcement
is doing much better than we would think they are.

Speaker 1 (01:59:54):
I like that the president of Brown set this one out.
She's like, I already did this.

Speaker 2 (02:00:00):
I already got on and I already got on the
microphone and said I know nothing.

Speaker 1 (02:00:04):
I don't know anything more.

Speaker 3 (02:00:06):
So I'm not.

Speaker 1 (02:00:06):
Saying it again.

Speaker 3 (02:00:07):
I will be staying silent back here, Fifth Amendment and action.
When we come back, we'll hear from you. You got
thoughts on this, I know you do. We got to
roll through a bunch of big clips from today that
are going viral, and many different things that we haven't
gotten to yet on the story, including the updoate on
that cruise murder mystery story. Stick with us in the
final hour of the show. The Power Hour is coming
up next on The News Junkie a couple of things

(02:00:46):
to get to. An email coming in from anonymous tips
at the News Junkie dot com said, something you were
talking about yesterday, See Lane was wondering and the audio
of that close call with the Jet Blue flight and
the military aircraft over Venezuela. The person said something about painting. Yeah,
they were like, this aircraft was not painting, and we

(02:01:10):
learned in the moment, like this flight almost ran into
this military aircraft because they weren't on radar, they weren't anywhere,
and the Jet Blue captain was really pissed off. I
forgot what he said, something like unacceptable or was He
was very outraged by it. And I think that the
the air traffic controller who responded, though he said he

(02:01:32):
was outraged, it was a little too calmvoil.

Speaker 1 (02:01:36):
I am very outraged.

Speaker 3 (02:01:38):
Tool.

Speaker 1 (02:01:39):
I write it down right now.

Speaker 3 (02:01:40):
He was much more chill than the dude who almost
plowed into a military aircraft. So anonymous emails it says
junkies airline pilot, former fighter pilot. Here. First of all,
really painting is when the aircraft shows up on traffic
avoidance displays. Airplanes only show up if they have their

(02:02:01):
transponder on like a beacon. Military aircraft, what's that?

Speaker 2 (02:02:07):
The ADSB is like the where you could just you
can if you have the right antenna, you can get
the transponder signal from all the aircraft in your area.

Speaker 3 (02:02:16):
Military aircraft don't always have transponders on outside the US,
especially if they're in a tactical environment, which could explain
why they didn't have THEIRS on. Military aircraft have other
means of detecting each other that civilian aviation aircraft do
not that or they forgot to put it on in
their idiots who knows Wiggles and pops, says anonymous. Yeah,

(02:02:37):
I mean I would understand in a war zone, like
let's say Ukraine, why Ukrainian military aircraft might want to
turn off their transponder to not make it easy for
the Russians to blow them out of the sky. I
get that. What I don't get is, even if they
have their transponders off, I would imagine that the military

(02:02:57):
aircraft should.

Speaker 1 (02:02:58):
Be able to see you, right, meaning like the yeah bluefly.

Speaker 3 (02:03:02):
And if that's the case, can you maybe do your
best to not run into a commercial aircraft?

Speaker 2 (02:03:09):
Well, I mean, if you're if you have the system
turned off, if you're not sending, does that mean you're
not receiving. You think you should be able to receive
without sending. But I think, but I don't know. We
might have to go back to an ARVISS on that one.

Speaker 1 (02:03:21):
They say.

Speaker 2 (02:03:22):
The traffic collision avoidance system, which is what seemed to
have been turned off on this is for avoidance. The
thing that I mentioned is for awareness.

Speaker 8 (02:03:31):
It's just like I feel like that should be on
the whole time coming crazy.

Speaker 3 (02:03:34):
Well, yeah it is. It is for like for domestic
flights and stuff, But this is like a military aircraft.

Speaker 8 (02:03:41):
Isn't that The same issue issue with was the beginning
of this year with the the helicopter and the plane
full of what was it ice skaters.

Speaker 3 (02:03:53):
It's you talk about Washington, DC, where the military chopper
was on patrol and was flying too low and crashing
into this.

Speaker 8 (02:04:00):
There's also like you couldn't see them in any sort
of radar or there's no communication at some point.

Speaker 3 (02:04:06):
Yeah, there's a lot of this kind of stuff that happened.
That was a training exercise gone wrong, and I think
they've changed all the rules so they cannot fly training
exercises so close to where these actual commercial flights would be,
which it probably should have done to begin with. But
this was a very close call. According to the pile
of the pilot, It's like we almost got knocked out
of the sky, we almost crashed into these people, and

(02:04:27):
then it probably would have been like, hey, Venezuela, what's
going on here? Who shot down this commercial flight here?
There could have been a lot of stuff that made
things even worse on that front. But thank you Anonymous
for the email. You two can email the show and
if you want to be anonymous, put that right up
on top to your email at tips at the Neewsjunkie

(02:04:47):
dot com. Tomorrow, as we're doing the show, we will
probably be getting some more information about the cruise murder
mystery story. That's the woman Anna Kepner. She was an
eighteen year old who was out on a cruise, a
Royal Caribbean cruise. I believe she was coming back from
Mexico headed to Tampa when she was killed. And they

(02:05:10):
believe that her stepbrother choked her out and then squeezed
her underneath the bed and then the family was none
the wiser as some of them even like slept on
top of where her body was. And we haven't gotten
any charges yet from the Feds on this stepbrother is
probably forthcoming. They're looking into whether they're gonna do state

(02:05:31):
charges or federal charges, but it hasn't happened yet. We
may get more details because there's another hearing on this
tomorrow during the show, so we'll let you know what
we hear. The Kepner families do back in court on
Wednesday relating to that child custody case between Kepta, her
stepmom and her ex husband. And we'll get some details

(02:05:52):
and send them your way. But still no charges over there.
Let's work on you. I haven't gotten in that many
dispatches today, so let's try. Hmm. Here is Tony with
a dispatch for us. What do you got, Tony?

Speaker 11 (02:06:08):
Good afternoon.

Speaker 12 (02:06:09):
All.

Speaker 11 (02:06:09):
Hey, I don't know why people are suddenly going crazy
over this tag law.

Speaker 3 (02:06:14):
It's been on the books forever.

Speaker 11 (02:06:17):
I was a coup in the nineties. Yeah, let's say
maybe one in three had some kind of frame on
their tag. It didn't seem fair pulling one person over
when all these other people were disregarding the law. So
I never even bothered stamping one person be impossible to
do anything about it.

Speaker 3 (02:06:36):
Yeah. The problem now is, Tony, it's new in that
they made it a more aggravated charge. It's a misdemeanor now, Yeah,
it's a misdemeanor and the finest is heavier. It's like
five hundred bucks. You could go to jail for doing it.
So that is what raised this up on people's radars.
And I have a problem with this because I think

(02:06:56):
we need this is important, important stuff. We need absolute
specifics when it comes to reasons that law enforcement can
pull you over. Now, when you're speeding and there's a
posted speed and you're going a higher speed than that,
it's quite obvious what you've done wrong. When you run

(02:07:16):
a stoplight or a stop sign, quite obvious what you've
done wrong. Some of these other things are a little
bit more nuanced. But even if you pull somebody over
for having tint that is too dark and unlawful, there's
a tool that law enforcement has to pull out of
their vehicle to put it up to the tent to
determine whether or not it actually is a legal tint.

(02:07:39):
This was just too amorphous and unclear as a law,
and it left it up to the discretion of police officers,
which I hate, right, I hate that much like I
hate how an officer can go I smell marijuana in
this vehicle and you're like, oh, when was the last
time you had your nose calibrated to.

Speaker 8 (02:08:00):
Part of my training? We can get the dogs out here.
You're just honest, Okay.

Speaker 1 (02:08:03):
It's ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (02:08:04):
Cops should not have the ability to pull you over
unless it's already clear provable that you have broken some
sort of law of the road. So the problem is
with the weird amorphous version of this where not everybody
was on the same page in terms of what actually
is illegal with your license plate here. That's the issue. Uh,

(02:08:25):
John wants to talk about the woman in the freezer.

Speaker 14 (02:08:29):
All right, being naked inside a freezer. If you froze
a death, it's not surprising that you're naked because hypothermia
one of the last stages of hypothermia. Your body feels
like it's on fire. So people usually when they freeze
the death, they're usually found naked.

Speaker 3 (02:08:47):
I don't know if usually is correct, Like you know,
if you're saying usually is in more often than not, don't.
I don't know that that's correct, but it is a thing.
In fact, there is a fame story of of a
couple of people who died in an avalanche and they
were all naked, and the conspiracy theories were going crazy,

(02:09:08):
why are there naked people in the snow on the
side of this mountain. And it happened that in that case,
the people who were covered in snow and were freaking
out stripped off their clothes because they were getting delirious
from the hypothermia.

Speaker 5 (02:09:21):
So I mean off the bat twenty and fifty.

Speaker 8 (02:09:25):
Between twenty and fifty percent of people who die from
hypothermia are found partially or completely naked.

Speaker 3 (02:09:30):
Yeah, so I don't. I mean, I don't know this
usually the cause. I think even fifty percent might behind.
But when somebody freezes death, it is an outcome that
they could be naked. I don't know though, if this
woman just straight up walked into the freezer naked to
begin with, we don't know. We just know that they
said that she naked. No, there are there were cameras.

(02:09:55):
The cameras showed her walking into this store, and nobody
was with her, No employees were with her, nobody forced
her into there. She just willingly went into the freezer.

Speaker 2 (02:10:04):
The cameras were of low quality because they only cost
a dollar.

Speaker 3 (02:10:08):
It could be the case, but it could be that
you're right, John, I just I don't. I don't think that.
It's like the most often circumstance that you encounter when
somebody freezes death is that they're always naked. It's just
something that can happen in those instances.

Speaker 2 (02:10:21):
Somebody said, you'll find she died of a drug overdose.
She has what's called excited delirium. And makes people crazy
when their body temperature rises too high from drug use.
Maybe that's why she walked in the freezer in the
first place, same reason people get naked and jump on
cars in the road and whatnot.

Speaker 3 (02:10:36):
Right, Yes, excited delirium is a real thing, although some
people try to pretend it's not whenever it comes up
on the show, I talk about this. I don't know
that that's.

Speaker 1 (02:10:43):
The case here.

Speaker 2 (02:10:45):
Yeah, we're all just kind of guessing right now because
there's not a whole lot.

Speaker 5 (02:10:50):
We're ready to find out. Let's find the iHeart freezer.

Speaker 3 (02:10:52):
I have no idea why this woman did this, and
that's why it's a big mystery.

Speaker 1 (02:10:56):
But it could be that you're right.

Speaker 3 (02:10:57):
We'll see what happens when that information comes out. Speculation
is a little pointless. In the meantime. A couple more
things here that I want to work into the show.
We talked about how the US Mint had minted the final.

Speaker 1 (02:11:12):
Pennies, the final ever pennies.

Speaker 3 (02:11:15):
They're going after personal checks now and trying to shut
those down. But they got rid of the final pennies,
and they have sold the remaining pennies, the last circulating
pennies at an auction those final minted coins. The final
pennies rolled off the line in the United States of
America sold for sixteen point seven to six million dollars

(02:11:40):
at auction in California. The auction house sold two hundred
and thirty two sets of three coins, each featuring a
twenty twenty five penny from the Philadelphia Mint, a twenty
four carrot gold penny from the Mint, and a twenty
twenty five d penny from the Denver Mint. Each of
the coins was in boss with an Omega system a

(02:12:01):
symbol marking the final run of the coin first minted
in seventeen to ninety three, for an average of seventy
two thousand dollars for the three pennies in a little display,
I wanted.

Speaker 5 (02:12:13):
To renount abes, not on anything. Huh uh.

Speaker 2 (02:12:17):
Everyone is on a five dollars Ye.

Speaker 5 (02:12:20):
Never used this?

Speaker 3 (02:12:21):
Yeah, I don't. I mean I don't encounter cash or
change that much anymore, which is strange. But that's just
the future I think we're headed into here. So there's that,
and react to that if you will. And the final
thing is President Donald Trump has another executive order that
has come out and this has now officially designated fentanyl

(02:12:42):
as a weapon of mass destruction. Okay, Illicit fentanyl is
closer to a chemical weapon than a narcotic. The executive
order reads. Two milligrams and almost undetectable trace amount equivalent
to ten to fifteen grams of table salt can constitute
a lethal dope, it said. Elicit fentanyl fentanyl that's manufactured, distributed,

(02:13:05):
or dispensed with the intent to be in violation of law.
Not the kind you need when you're getting a given
birth at the hospital, or feentanyl you get there. But
a legal street fetanyl, they said, is now officially a
weapon of mass destruction. All right, So you think about
all of that. Send a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com.

(02:13:26):
When we come back, we'll mix it up with you
get some of your thoughts and your opinions in So
send that dispatch right now, record yours on the website.
That's coming up next on the News Junkie. We love

(02:13:51):
you for hanging out with us. Learn more at thenewsjunkie
dot com. Getting ready for next week, we'll be going
on a cruise. And I was talking with the folks
in chat and I was like, I don't know if
I'm the only one that does this. But whenever I
go somewhere New, I always I don't know, it's like
some internal push that whenever I go somewhere New, I

(02:14:14):
want to put my feet in their water, I want
to put my feet in like their ocean. Even when
I when my sister lived in San Francisco and I
went to stay with her for a while for a
couple of weeks.

Speaker 1 (02:14:26):
When I was over there, I had this like it
was just this.

Speaker 3 (02:14:29):
Drive, and I said, I cannot leave the West Coast,
to which at the point I had never been to
the United States West Coast in my entire life. I
was like, I cannot leave without putting my feet in
the Pacific Ocean. I gotta do it. While I'm here,
I feel like I gotta do it. And then like
when we go to places like the Bahamas, we go
to all these different spots, I want to put my

(02:14:50):
feet in your water. And even though like it'll be nice,
the weather will be seventies eighties, on this cruise, it's
going to be cold the water, the water is going
to be cold, but I still have to do it.

Speaker 8 (02:15:04):
I mean, it was early earlier this year that I
went to the West Coast, and I I wasn't necessarily
on the same track as I want to put my
feet in their water, but I was determined to see
those seals.

Speaker 5 (02:15:20):
And with that came a beach.

Speaker 8 (02:15:24):
And despite how cold it was, I was like, I'm
going to see those damn seals. And the moment, I mean,
I think it was just like the top of my
toe I touched the water and I said, oh right,
we're gonna watch them from far away.

Speaker 5 (02:15:37):
It was so damn cold.

Speaker 3 (02:15:40):
You didn't feel like it would be going somewhere and
then not doing one of the big things.

Speaker 5 (02:15:45):
Just not As I get older, cold water is not
for me.

Speaker 1 (02:15:49):
I'm not excited about.

Speaker 3 (02:15:51):
But I want to put my feet in everybody's ocean,
no matter where we go. Like if you went to Australia,
there's no way you would go all the way to
Australia and not put your f on their ocean.

Speaker 5 (02:16:01):
I probably a big old dunk down on that.

Speaker 3 (02:16:05):
And then I'm not stupid, okay, I know that the
oceans are technically connected.

Speaker 2 (02:16:10):
Not only are you going to be the whitest guy
at the beach, but you're going to be the only
one that goes in the water.

Speaker 3 (02:16:16):
I would do this anywhere, Yes, and I'm going to
do it the Dominican Republic. At least I haven't been
to the Dominican Republic.

Speaker 5 (02:16:21):
All right.

Speaker 3 (02:16:22):
This is an interesting island, the island of Hispaniola. Half
of it is this nice touristy area called the Dominican Republic,
and the other other half is Haiti. The other half
is Haiti with no trees, no nothing, starving people in Squalor,
and there's a very interesting dynamic going on there. The
island is beautiful. They need to rebrand that.

Speaker 2 (02:16:44):
They should change the name to Lovey and maybe people
will like turn things around and work.

Speaker 3 (02:16:51):
Not the worst idea you've ever had? Actually, what's the
worst idea I've ever had?

Speaker 8 (02:16:55):
Ah, that's for the last episode of the year.

Speaker 3 (02:16:58):
Come on the University Merchless.

Speaker 8 (02:17:02):
That was a great idea you're talking about it.

Speaker 1 (02:17:06):
No, it wasn't.

Speaker 3 (02:17:07):
That wasn't the worst idea you ever had. I'm trying
to think you probably had one where I was like
this guy thought of his mind, what is this idea here?
But I cannot help myself. I when I go to
places like that, I want to experience the place like
I hear people who go on cruises and then they
stop at the port. Let's say they stop in Puerto Rico,

(02:17:27):
and they don't even get off the ship and walk
around in old San Juan or something.

Speaker 1 (02:17:33):
I'm like, Wow, how.

Speaker 3 (02:17:34):
Little curiosity do you have as a human being? How
planet Earth? I even got off the ship in Nassau
last time?

Speaker 5 (02:17:41):
Absolutely evenhole.

Speaker 8 (02:17:45):
I mean there are islands that it's clearly owned by
all of the cruise lines, and they're very happy to
have you there because they're greeting you with all the instruments.

Speaker 5 (02:17:53):
And I'm like, here, I am in a new place. Yeah,
I'm not absolutely made for me.

Speaker 1 (02:17:58):
It's a new spot you never put your feet before.

Speaker 3 (02:18:01):
I don't know. I just have now. The closest thing
I could compare it to Sabrina is I think this
happened when you were younger too, when we were younger,
and they released that cardboard thing, and each state had
their own quarter, and then you would start getting the quarters,
and you go, I got a Florida quarter, and I
got a New York quarter, and I had.

Speaker 1 (02:18:20):
A California quarter.

Speaker 5 (02:18:21):
I did that for years.

Speaker 3 (02:18:22):
I wanted to finish all the quarters in the board.

Speaker 8 (02:18:27):
And then I because I were in college and I
used all of that to buy a tiny gram in marijuana.

Speaker 3 (02:18:32):
No, yeah, I think I probably spent it on tacob something.

Speaker 5 (02:18:35):
Quarters are probably worth a whole bunch.

Speaker 2 (02:18:37):
You showed up to a drug dealer's house with a
bag of quarters.

Speaker 5 (02:18:42):
These are going to be worth something someday, Bud.

Speaker 3 (02:18:45):
I would like if you did that. But you were
the same kind of person who were like, it's currency,
it's it's real tender.

Speaker 8 (02:18:51):
You have to be this is a racket dinar and
I'm telling you a moment it's going to slip.

Speaker 11 (02:18:58):
Now.

Speaker 5 (02:18:59):
I'm having a bit of a cruise.

Speaker 8 (02:19:02):
No, it's not really dilimma what you're saying, but trying
something new and the Virgin voyages. That's my plan for
early next year is that I've been trying to go
on this cruise.

Speaker 1 (02:19:14):
Went on a Virgin cruise, right I did.

Speaker 8 (02:19:15):
I did, and I had a great time with my
my siblings and my mom. But I would like to
go just my girlfriend, maybe some friends. You know, it's
not really.

Speaker 5 (02:19:25):
Like a family cruise party, is what you're saying.

Speaker 8 (02:19:29):
I want to party and if you if you can
also they have a topless deck really and not for
just like walking around.

Speaker 3 (02:19:38):
I guess you could make any deck topless if you
want to, just try real hard.

Speaker 1 (02:19:42):
Yeah you could.

Speaker 8 (02:19:43):
I don't know how long it would last, but very true.
But you know, that would be a whole new thing
for me. I've been to like the naked beach in Miami.
Did not get naked almost immediate late because creepers. But

(02:20:03):
this one's supposed to be like you know, just.

Speaker 3 (02:20:05):
Like this is the driving force behind you wanted to
go back on a cruise. You wanted to go to
the topless thing.

Speaker 5 (02:20:09):
You take the tea's out.

Speaker 1 (02:20:11):
Can't just do that in your backyard?

Speaker 3 (02:20:13):
No, no, no, no, you got like huge bushes.

Speaker 5 (02:20:18):
Excuse me, trim thank you, shrubbery.

Speaker 1 (02:20:23):
That's not what you said earlier.

Speaker 8 (02:20:25):
I am lasered. Go back to the commercials. No, not
with the neighbors that I have.

Speaker 3 (02:20:32):
But if you if you went on this cruise, right,
you go back on a virgin cruise next year at
some point time time question mark, right, would you cruise?
Would you be a visitor to the club then, like
the adult nightclub, the club, the whole ship is adults.

(02:20:55):
No no, but there's the club. And now you've got
the DJ youve got the dance floor. Yeah, everybody's in
there like your time back in the club. I will
guarantee you something. I will never visit the club on
this trip. I set foot in there. I don't have
any interest in that.

Speaker 1 (02:21:11):
I went to the club. They were doing the silent disco.

Speaker 3 (02:21:14):
I'm too old.

Speaker 5 (02:21:14):
Oh that's a silent But they're so funny.

Speaker 1 (02:21:17):
As it's so there's something so.

Speaker 5 (02:21:20):
Lame school guy on the cruise.

Speaker 3 (02:21:23):
What's the.

Speaker 1 (02:21:25):
It's not me trying to cool guy or anything.

Speaker 3 (02:21:28):
I would say, Well, I just think the headphone club
silent disco thing is definitely nerdy. If anything's nerdy, that's nerdy.
But I'm going for number one relaxation. Number two food.
They got great food on cruise ships these days.

Speaker 1 (02:21:45):
And dipping my toes and some foreign water. I do
want to do that.

Speaker 3 (02:21:49):
I want to go to all the destinations and maybe
rent a car and drive around a little bit and
experience those places. I want to do that kind of stuff.
I want to go do a little gambling in the casino.
I want to do that. But I have nothing that's
drawing me. It's like, hey, Sean, you must go to
the club. You and court and you got to get

(02:22:09):
decked out in your clothes and start dancing around in
the club to you know whatever Playboy Cardi song is
going to be popping in there. No, that's not for me,
that one do it. Yeah, I mean that Virgin Virgin
Cruise ships I think are the good, good place to
do that on. Here's a TSA worker going viral speaking

(02:22:29):
of dancing. He's not in the club, but I guess
this is a TSA worker that just got a bonus check.
Let's see what he said.

Speaker 16 (02:22:36):
I would like to first and foremost think the Almighty
God for just this moment, having come this for so
far my TSA career. I'm thankful for this moment. To
our president, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Speaker 6 (02:22:53):
To the sick.

Speaker 3 (02:22:54):
This is kind of like when Taylor Swift gave the
bonus checks to the roadies. But this is the TSA
guy getting the bonus check for not taking any days
off and he's excited about carry.

Speaker 6 (02:23:06):
Homeland security. Thank you.

Speaker 16 (02:23:09):
I'm truely just at a loss for words, but I'm grateful.
I'm grateful, grateful, grateful. Really again, I'm grateful. I don't
know what else to say, but I'm grateful. Ally Kevin
on YouTube. You think you're making fun of me? Stand
up in Bingo is more Sean style? Yes, n ironically,
I will be playing bingo.

Speaker 3 (02:23:27):
Yes, bingo is not nerdy. No bingo you think, Okay,
we'll give you the heads up. What's nerdier bingo or
silent disco bingo? I'm out of here. I mean this is.

Speaker 5 (02:23:42):
Bingo. What is the price?

Speaker 3 (02:23:44):
Ridiculous? Bingo is way cooler than a silent disco where
everybody's listening to different music with their headphones on. There's
no social aspects to it at all. You can't flirt
with anybody because you're all wearing headphones like dummy.

Speaker 5 (02:23:59):
Nobody on this cruise. Besides you're late.

Speaker 3 (02:24:02):
Well, other people might want to and they're not gonna
be able to do it. There's it's just no I
So I will be doing that. Yeah, I indeed will
be playing some beingo. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:24:11):
And if I could do one more thing, I'll do
the that the Trump dance.

Speaker 1 (02:24:15):
He's doing the trump the Trump arm dance.

Speaker 3 (02:24:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 16 (02:24:18):
But I'm grateful, thank you until until to the team
here a DFW.

Speaker 6 (02:24:21):
Thank you.

Speaker 16 (02:24:22):
I never thought thought of taking the day off, but
I just want to be here and want to see
get through this.

Speaker 6 (02:24:27):
We got through it, thank you.

Speaker 3 (02:24:30):
Well, this is funny to be. There are some people.
This guy is one of them.

Speaker 8 (02:24:36):
There is something cut some of it out and he's
still a good forty five pregnant second.

Speaker 3 (02:24:41):
Because of exactly what I'm saying. There are some people
like this guy. This guy doesn't get handed a microphone
a lot. And when you're when you're a person who
doesn't get the microphone a lot, you grab.

Speaker 1 (02:24:52):
He grabs it like somebody's.

Speaker 8 (02:24:53):
Gonna star away from right on top, and he's like,
absolutely destroy any audio.

Speaker 3 (02:24:59):
It's like, this is my moment. No one ever gives
me the microphone. He's so excited.

Speaker 8 (02:25:04):
I'm gonna do this dance in which I look like
I am milking an invisible cowt.

Speaker 1 (02:25:09):
Yeah he did it. There he goes. You've got ten
thousand dollars as a bonus.

the cut, And of course today I learned to wrap
everything up for a share the show Tuesday. That is

hope you'll hang out for him. We're going to do
the big award show on Friday to wrap the year up.
That should be exciting. I'm thrilled. I'm over the moon
about it. I do know this, before we leave today,
we still have to give out a prize to somebody.
And yes, well, Celian's got these these sweet gift cards for.

Speaker 1 (02:26:12):

Oh I like this all right? Whatever it is folks,
if you.

Speaker 3 (02:26:59):

fun of me or Sabrina, if you wanna, I don't know.
You gotta do something to get Selian's attention. You currently
have four minutes to do it. Chat get ready, and
then he will announce the winner of the best message.
That wraps everything up over on the chat side of things. Meanwhile,

(02:27:21):
so far it's just my name three times right? All right,
Well they got they got a delay. Don't forget they
got a delay. Dispatches. These are the final dispatches.

Speaker 1 (02:27:29):
But Sean will probably.

Speaker 3 (02:27:31):
Ownly Ta Kevin. That's a weird one. That's a weird one.

Speaker 1 (02:27:36):
He's probably not gonna be the winner.

Speaker 3 (02:27:37):
A lot of kissing.

Speaker 1 (02:27:39):
I did that too, but not for the holidays.

Speaker 3 (02:27:42):
A lot of ass kissing going on over there. Let's
get to the final dispatches. Selian's watching your messages Chat
and people are mad about the grinch slander. Let's hear hello, Hey,
everybody happy today. So I thought about it for a second.

Speaker 17 (02:27:55):
I'd probably find myself playing bingo over going to a
silent disco. But where I got to put my foot down? Sean, Yeah,
is the slander of the Jim Carrey Grinch movie. It's
an amazing film. And I can't tell you how many
times I've put on my shirt, changed my shirt, looked
in the mirror and said.

Speaker 6 (02:28:16):
I'm not going.

Speaker 3 (02:28:19):
It's I know you have that taste, but.

Speaker 17 (02:28:22):
I will not hear anymore slander.

Speaker 3 (02:28:24):
Okay, I love you, goodbye.

Speaker 8 (02:28:25):
You just laughed at that, And that's not from the animation.
That is a two carried line, thank you.

Speaker 3 (02:28:30):
I love these things. I love the character of the Grinch.
I love the little dog.

Speaker 5 (02:28:35):
And he's killing it at Universal.

Speaker 3 (02:28:37):
The Who's I would not care if there was a
mass extermination in Whovill. It wouldn't bother me at all.

Speaker 1 (02:28:44):
They're weird looking little creatures.

Speaker 3 (02:28:46):
I don't like them. I don't care about them.

Speaker 8 (02:28:48):
I'm having a hard time with Cindy Luhou having such
a rocket mud in twenty two five.

Speaker 1 (02:28:52):
It's just weird things happening in Whovill.

Speaker 3 (02:28:54):
You get there's old people with young people, young people
with old people in it's weird. Everything's up is down,
it's no good. Here's Swilly, I hate that movie. Here's
Jackie Sean. You have this silent disco all wrong.

Speaker 15 (02:29:06):
The one time I thought it would be super nerdy,
and I happened to stumble upon one in Jacksonville. It
was super fun. There were three different channels and you
could pick different music. But the best part is you
can have one of the headsets on one off. That
way you can still talk to people and you're not
having to scream over the music and lose your voice.
I think is perfectly.

Speaker 3 (02:29:26):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (02:29:26):
I wonder if you're just watching everybody go.

Speaker 3 (02:29:29):
Well, yeah, and you're listening to a song that's totally
different tempo and somebody's like skates skates skates game it,
it's like, it's weird. Everybody's on a different song. I
don't like it. So one person's like party in the USA.
It's all backwards. I don't like it.

Speaker 9 (02:29:51):
All right.

Speaker 3 (02:29:51):
Last one for now, here's Concrete Mike talking about Celen's
worst idea Happy Day News joking through. I think she
Wane's worst idea was bulging in space. That's just me.
It was not my idea, it was his execution.

Speaker 1 (02:30:08):
It was his execution, all right.

Speaker 3 (02:30:12):
Do we have a Winter Sea Lane? Yes?

Speaker 2 (02:30:15):
This person that I just chose use a very cheesy
pickup line on me, but it's it's dumb and it worked,
and it's a big Doug millionaire, Big Dug millionaire, he said,

a hammer and nails gift card.

If you can't shave your head at nails.

Speaker 1 (02:30:51):
You could, Yeah, you could save you.

Speaker 2 (02:30:54):
I've seen bald guys that go there and they like,
you know, they kind of fix up it, have a
little stubble that's on top, but then they do the
really good beard job on the bottom.

Speaker 3 (02:31:05):
That's key.

Speaker 5 (02:31:06):
That's a good beard job.

Speaker 3 (02:31:07):
All right, we are gonna wrap it up here today.
Let's see is there anything else? Oh, the Epstein files
are supposed to be released on Friday. We'll see what
happens with that.

of seven seven playing our favorite Christmas tunes.

of those at our local Christmas station. I heard some
other folks. I heard Taco Bob Man, it's.

but you got it. From nineteen fifty five zero to
nineteen sixty two, Rutolf the Red Nose Reindeer had a
comic book series that was very popular, published by d
C Comics at the time. It's one of the most

Speaker 3 (02:33:27):
Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys had an unhealthy obsession
with one song you listened to over and over and
over again, the Ronettes be My Baby like Beam. Yeah.
He listened to the song over one hundred times a day,
every single day, still listen to it today, and made
a Beach Boys engineer create a tape loop of the
song's chorus so we could listen to it for several hours.

Speaker 1 (02:33:50):
