Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It is never ever ever happens. Friends.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
I can't believe it. Let me just dust this off.
I just want to be absolutely sure. It's a last
minute message coming into the studio here before the show.
It appears to be from that that weird little boy
with the bees. Let's see what he said.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
Everybody, a great Friday. We did it, everybody, Congratulations, we
made our way through a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and
Friday has arrived. Patch yourself on the back.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
Here we go, little delay this morning. Patch yourself on
the back. You've done it, and I can't believe it.
We've arrived at the weekend, everybody.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
Let's have a little fun on a Friday. How's everybody
doing on a Friday? Is that the normal song? Sabrina's
not here song?

Speaker 3 (00:57):
I'm here, but my mac pro is not?

Speaker 1 (01:01):
Oh okay, all right, alrighty.

Speaker 4 (01:04):
I mean that's what you get for not updating since
twenty seventeen.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
All right, let's do what we always do to kick
things off today.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Perfect.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Let's put our ears to the ground, our fingers in
the pulse, Let's see what's happening in this great, big,
wide world of ours. And we go to our friends
in Port Saint Lucy, Florida. Everybody, man, Hello, goodness, that's
right Port Saint Lucy, Florida, where we're gonna play a
little bit of a game today if you don't mind.
And this game is going to be what started the fights? Okay,

(01:36):
challenge level impossible? I think let's listen in okay.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Kill me listen, don't go, don't go.

Speaker 5 (01:47):
This is buddy camera footage of forty four year old
Peter Riira being taken into custody by Port Saint Lucy
police Rieia is accused of firing four rounds from a
forty five caliber clock at three people.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
All right, so we know that the guy fired a gun.
We know that there was a fight. It's at some
place called Harper's Pub in Port Saint Lucy. Now it's
time to do some guessing. What started the fight? And
as I told you, Challenge level impossible has arrived here ones, No,

(02:20):
something very stupid, stupid to me or you?

Speaker 1 (02:23):
Yes? Yeah, okay?

Speaker 3 (02:25):
So was it? What day was this of the week game?

Speaker 2 (02:30):
And I can't tell you what day of the week
it was. It was not sports related though. Now did
somebody gets skipped in line in karaoke?

Speaker 1 (02:38):
No?

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Not karaoke related. That's why I said, this is a
very very hard one. Let me see if a couple
more details might spill out.

Speaker 5 (02:44):
An argument outside the closed pub. Police say, once outside,
the conversation became heated. Riera became paranoid and believed the
victims were out to get him.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
All right, now, we could see one of the gods,
one of the guys involved has like a well it
should be a clue.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
It's like a bit of a.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
Thatched farmer's hat kind of thing going on. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
this guy got a bit of a farmer looked to
him and wearing the sandals and shorts.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Get up that he's got on here in Port Saint Lucy.
Paranoid yep, yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Far alien. They were aliens.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Okay, let's see what we got.

Speaker 6 (03:24):
Shooter evidently raises chickens, and the conversation was about how
many eggs a chicken can lay.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
As you do, you know, like as it goes you
fight from time to time about how many eggs a
chicken can.

Speaker 4 (03:41):
Lay, which I mean Florida we try every week to
not be the perfect Florida headline and Ports Lucy comes
into play.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Is the answer just one at a time, total amounts
of eggs a chicken can lay, over the history of
its life. Careful, careful, Oh, I'm sorry, get it. I
don't want to get guns. They're coming out.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
I'll ask them all the chicken people that listen to
the show.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
I don't want to Internet. I don't want to start
a fight with them. That's what this was over there.
It was a fight over how many eggs at chicken
can like.

Speaker 6 (04:13):
Raise his chickens, and the conversation was about how many
eggs a chicken can lay.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
They say.

Speaker 5 (04:20):
That's when Riira armed himself with a handgun and started firing.

Speaker 6 (04:23):
One victim ran out into the roadway trying to get
away from the shooter.

Speaker 7 (04:27):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (04:27):
The other two victims head. We had several phone calls.
The shooter himself called nine to one one.

Speaker 5 (04:33):
We were at the scene as officers gathered evidence later
that morning. Please say, the victims knew each other and
I just met the suspect that night. All had been
drinking and none were hit.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Yeah, this is why you don't talk to Rando's at
the bar.

Speaker 8 (04:45):
This is imagine waking up the next morning and realizing
you had the had to have the cops come and
break up a gun fight over how many eggs a
chicken can lay? That's that's fine, evaluate your life kind
of thoughts right there.

Speaker 4 (05:03):
The answer is not easy to find because not is
it a day or is it in a laying period?

Speaker 1 (05:10):
They say lifetime.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
On average, one egg per day takes about twenty four
to twenty six hours for the process to complete, So
laying two does it?

Speaker 9 (05:23):
So?

Speaker 1 (05:23):
It does it?

Speaker 3 (05:25):
What are you yelling at?

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Oh? The gun's god?

Speaker 4 (05:28):
So the daily rhythm because the cycle takes lightly longer
than twenty four hours, egg a little later each day
until it's too late. This one source is saying laying
two eggs in a single day is impossible, and I
feel like that's what they were, that could.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Have been it.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
They get all all hyped up about this and they go, look,
I know more about eggs than you do. I don't
understand this because I would have de escalated, like when
I said, now, I'm pretty sure a bird can lay
two eggs a day. The person be like what I'd be.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Like, Oha, I never mind?

Speaker 8 (05:58):
One egg depends on YouTube, says GTA six was delayed
to add these guys, and I would believe it.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
I would believe it. Random side quests.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
You go to a bar Imports Saint Lucie, and you
got these guys hanging out with you. So there you
go out there fighting over chicken eggs, chicken egg farmers.
You feel free to chime in at any point in time.
We're glad to hear from you during the show today.
As always, send us a dispatch or an email to
tips tips at thenewsjunkie dot com.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
Well, there's rumors. I don't know how true they.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
Are, but there's rumors that the government shut down could
end as soon as today.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
Will this happen on it? There's some vote coming up.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
We'll get into a little bit about what's happening there,
But anything like that would be good because they are
canceling flights like crazy across the United States right now.
It's because the FAA folks who aren't even assured that
they're going to get paid are a lot of them
are just not showing up for work, and so they've
shut down a lot of flights. They cut back about

(07:01):
ten percent of all flights in the last week or so.
And now they're also saying like, hey, this is just
going to domino from here and turn into like more
flight cancelations, which is no good.

Speaker 4 (07:14):
I saw this clip coming out of Miami International and
six o'clock in the morning. This girl was like, this
is what it looks like, and she showed I mean,
what seemed to be five hundred people in line for
TSA pre check six am. So is very apparent of
how much the delay is affecting actual travelers.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
I guess it's like piling up at some of these places,
because what happens is you get one flight that's canceled
that somebody wasn't expecting, and then maybe that flight connected somewhere,
which connected somewhere, which connected somewhere, and then it like
just down the line, you have all sorts of problems.

Speaker 8 (07:50):
I wondered if this was going to be the breaking point,
because obviously the snap wasn't enough for people, and they're like,
wait a second, these people don't about SNAP users.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
Let's hit them where it really hurts. I can't have.

Speaker 8 (08:03):
My flight on Oh yeah, the airport, that's what's gonna
do it.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Yeah, that'll happen.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Let's go over to one of the airports where they
were talking about this. This is a Fox Local chatting
with some of these people who I guess have been
slowed down or had their flights canceled, and then we'll
get into what might be happening to reopen the government.
Now it's really affecting the coming folks stuff, you know,
and I'm hearing stuff that some of the staff don't
want to show up, that they're not getting paid, you know,
and you know, money talks.

Speaker 5 (08:31):
Major shake up in air travel could be just days away.
The FAA planning flight cuts at dozens of airports. Is
Lax or other so called airports on the list? Yes,
welcome to the Function seven News at Tech.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
Answer is yes.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
By the way, if you live near a major airport,
odds are there are cuts going on said airport.

Speaker 8 (08:49):
They wanted to cut, like I think ten percent of
flights over forty of the biggest air markets.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Do you know how many flights there are a day?
How many?

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Forty four thousand? It's crazy, that's crazy. So about eighteen
hundred wide. This is the cuts which could impact eighteen
hundred of the nearly forty four thousand flights the FAA
sees every day. So I would imagine that's in the US, right,
you know, the FAA overseas these each day forty four
thousand flights, which is kind of astonishing to think about.

Speaker 8 (09:22):
Estimates for worldwide is around one hundred to one hundred
and five thousand.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
That's crazy that many flights up in the air.

Speaker 8 (09:29):
If you include military, private, and other types of aircraft,
it could reach up to one hundred and fifty thousand bananas.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
So what do you need those air controllers?

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Huh?

Speaker 2 (09:39):
At any given moment, that means there all at what
twenty thousand planes up in the sky.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
I think it's like seven or eight.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Oh really, okay, what I mean, it's still astonishing just
to think about how much that is. And now we
might have some light at the end of the tunnel.
There could be an end to the government shutdown today.
That's what the rumors are in Washington, and we'll see
what's going on with that.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
In fact, but I need it. I'm supposed to get
on a plane in about thirteen days, so no, I need.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
I need things to hurry up, folks. It just got serious.
Sure there are forty million people on Snap. Sure there
are others who have had their flights canceled, But Christopher
Dolores Lane has a flight coming up.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Yep, get this thing solved. All right, Republicans, Democrats, everybody
start agreeing.

Speaker 8 (10:28):
I'm going from major market to major market, Orlando, New York.
Those are definitely going to be affected.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
Figure it out, figure it out out there. So there's
going to be a vote today.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
Let's see. I think this is from I can't read. Hold,
I'll tell you a second.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Well, I mean I can't actually I have the skills
to read, but I can't read with the ground.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
I'm not Floyd Mayweather. I can't actually read. It's just
that this is hard to see here in front of
me and sick Welcome back now.

Speaker 10 (10:56):
After the Federal Aviation Administration ordered airlines to reduce air
traffic at the nation's busiest airports, carriers began canceling hundreds
of flights today.

Speaker 1 (11:05):
Yeah, all right, we know about that.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
But let's hear about the new side of this, which
is the proposed votes that are coming up.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
Hang on, I think it's a little further in.

Speaker 9 (11:13):
Let's see here helping moderate Democrats would support an amended
spending bill and a promise to hold a later vote
on extending Affordable care AC subsidies.

Speaker 6 (11:22):
I'm hearing positive comments about some of the appropriations language,
but I do think it could produce additional pressure, and
I think that's good.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
But some Democrats are pushing back.

Speaker 11 (11:31):
Settling for some kind of vague promise about a vote
in the future and some indeterminate bill without any definite.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
Inclusion in the law. I think is a mistake.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
All right, So that's not everybody on board, but it
looks like at least some Democrats might be coming on
board with this idea to fund the government past thanksgiving,
fund some aspects of the government for the entirety of
twenty twenty five and then basically say we'll have a
vote later on these medicare things that Democrats are demanding
the changes on for the for the budget to pass.

(12:06):
That's why the government has been shut down all of
this time. And so there might be some sort of
agreement that could come up and this vote today could pass.
We'll see what happens. Maybe Sea Lane's flight is not canceled.
That's the biggest thing that is, you know, up for grabs.
Thank you for recognizing that, which I there I couldn't.
I could not at this point. We really need to

(12:26):
put the phocus to have you on my side. Sure
out about this.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
Yeah, he's so concerned with this he can no longer
finish sentences. That's yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
I can't wait for this week in Florida and a
couple hours here on the show.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
We'll see how it goes all right.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
When we come back. We have so much to get
into in a very busy Friday on the show. One
thing being we had.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
The whole drama over Jimmy Kimmellive and now there's another one.
There's some mystery happening behind the scenes and they've been
canceling the show at like the last minute.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Last night, I think they canceled the show at the
last minute. I don't know what this drama is, but
we're going to dive in and figure it out. We're
going to see what's going on and see what the
hubbub is behind the scenes of Jimmy Kimmelive.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
That's just the icing on the cake.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
We got to talk about a lot, including this Michael
Jackson trailer that has the Internet exploding today. We got
to talk about the tallest player in college basketball, we
got to talk about you, and a whole lot more,
and it's all coming up next in the News Junkie.

(13:44):
We are certified humans on this show. It's one thing
that I can absolutely tell you.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
I actually have to go after the show and get
re certified. No, do you really thought?

Speaker 2 (13:53):
The testing is very, very rigorous. It's weird and it's rigorous,
and it's important because we are here to hang out
with you each day in the world's most viral newsroom.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
I did see.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
Speaking of viral, one of the things bopping around on
all things social media is the trailer for this new
one Michael Jackson movie, which I first question I ask you.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Is do we need a new Michael Jackson movie?

Speaker 12 (14:22):
Hi?

Speaker 1 (14:22):
Doing? My question is who is making this? Like? Are
we getting me.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
The a state involved the full story?

Speaker 1 (14:30):
They have two reasons. Number one, the.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
Estate has to be involved because they're the ones who
are going to overall own the story of his life.
But two, if you have a Michael Jackson movie without
Michael Jackson music, what do you really You have.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
The Celene Dion Lifetime movie that.

Speaker 8 (14:49):
Was awful, right, Janice Jorplin movie from thirty Rocks.

Speaker 4 (14:55):
Yeah, they all just had to like make up music.
Clearly wasn't their music. It was very awkward. So I
did see the trailer when it popped up, and it
was so I was intrigued, but I was waiting. After
like a minute, minute and a half, I'm like, they
haven't shown his face yet, yeah, at all until the
very last minute.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
And then I said, I doesn't really look.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
Do you worry?

Speaker 2 (15:22):
You're ignorant? Why are you hesitating? You just say whether
you like it or you don't know.

Speaker 4 (15:27):
That's how that was going on in my mind, was
that it doesn't really look like him?

Speaker 3 (15:31):
But am I Is that going to sell me from
watching the bio?

Speaker 2 (15:34):
But no, I don't know that I need this necessarily,
you know what I mean? Like, I wonder, what is
it that we haven't covered about Michael Jackson? What is
it that like we we don't know that we haven't
seen that really needs to be explored here? And the
trailer is just exploding. Everyone's one of the most watched
videos on YouTube.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
Right now here. It is a little bit of it here.
Lions Gate is behind this. I know you've been waiting
a long time for this, have we The tracks are made,
the songs are ready, so the recording in the studio.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah, okay, it's from the person behind Bohemian Rhapsody. You
know the Freddie Mercury queen biopic, which I think won
a bunch of awards, right, I think that one did
pretty well. Yeah, it's good, it was good. But and
even that one, like I didn't go back and watch
that one again afterwards, And this one might be kind
of similar like that, Like I don't know, I mean,

(16:35):
I don't even.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Know I'm gonna watch it to begin with. But people
are blowing up about it.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
And they're also wondering, Hey, is this going to be
something where they talk about the Kittie allegations?

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Are they going to put that in this?

Speaker 8 (16:48):
Tis what I was like, who's making it? Because obviously
if the estate is behind this, then they're not going
to want that stuff in there.

Speaker 4 (16:55):
But then again, I wouldn't think so consider all of
the stuff that's happened. And I think I saw a
headline not too long ago that's they have to address.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
If it's going to be one or two parts.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
Yeah it is.

Speaker 4 (17:05):
Kitty allegation is obviously after Jackson five his solo career,
him getting burned in the face, the change in his life,
the multiple women that he's married.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
You know who's playing Michael Jackson in this? Have you
seen that?

Speaker 2 (17:19):
I know that I see the name is Jafar Jackson
is his nephew.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
Oh, it is he. It's actually his nephew.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
It's Jamaine Jackson's Jama Jackson's son, who's currently twenty nine
years old, so he is a member of the Jackson
family will be playing that role.

Speaker 8 (17:35):
And this still they have of him on the CNN
dot com like a story about this.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
Yeah, it's him as thriller.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
Sure, it's just not flattering. It looks like a woman.
Oh really, all right, hold on, here he is in thriller.
I'm seeing this, yere.

Speaker 2 (17:52):
Yeah, all right, they're not letting us focus on his
face very much. I'm noticing. I mean, that kind of
looks like a young Michael Jackson. I can see it. Yeah,
And this appears to be like a whole overview of
his life. And it's crazy that in the matter of
six hours it got thirty million views and climbing on YouTube.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
That's explosive.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
That's more than the trailers for some of the biggest movies,
the most anticipated movies out there. It shows you, to
this day how much attention the name Michael Jackson still runs.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
And that's a wild thing. I'll meddle the highest earning
dead person.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Yeah, yeah, I'll never forget the day he died and
walking home from work and all the cars everywhere with
all their windows down playing some Michael Jackson song and
you go. Damn a lot of people liked whatever they
would say about Michael Jackson in private. A lot of
people liked Michael Jackson, a lot of people.

Speaker 4 (18:57):
I grew up on Michael Jackson, and that was the
CDs and the LaserDiscs that were in the Inmber households.
For sure, I would definitely watch this movie. I'm just
curious if it's going to be so with Rocketman. Remember
you guys both watched it right else of John's biopick,
and they did include the bad stuff.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
They included his Yeah, but the bad.

Speaker 8 (19:17):
Stuff was like doing drugs, what like every rock star does.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
Yeah, it's not necessarily embarrassing, I guess. Okay, hold on,
would you put the bad stuff in Elton John's Rocketman
life story up against the bad stuff that could be
in Michael Jackson's story.

Speaker 4 (19:36):
No, because that what Michael Jackson has been accused of
and I wanted to court for is significantly worse than
having an addiction, I guess in that for weighing it
out but I'm saying in the sense of someone who
gave their blessing for this biobeck m And I'm assuming
the estate gave their blessing.

Speaker 3 (19:54):
For Michael Jackson's Yeah, they must have.

Speaker 4 (19:58):
Are they going to include it like they did with
rocketmand And I'm sure with them? I mean rahaps today,
I feel like there was stuff that was also involved
in there, there was bad might as well do the
whole thing.

Speaker 2 (20:09):
I think you should at least be honest about it,
like be honest about the propo fall stuff. If you're
going to show his death, you gotta be real with people.
You have to at least address things. Otherwise people are
gonna read right through it. People aren't dumb. And I
go to watch this and be like, oh, maybe the
other stuff I heard about Michael Jackson wasn't true.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
But what are you going to do?

Speaker 2 (20:27):
You go to watch it, let us know if you
have any level of excitement for this, or if you're
gonna skip it entirely.

Speaker 8 (20:32):
I mean, CNN can't do a story about the trailer
without mentioning the charges against him.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
That's how stuck it is, you know, That's how it goes. Yeah,
and it's kind of unfortunate for him and his legacy.
But that's what happens.

Speaker 12 (20:46):
Man.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
You're weird, you want to sleep around little kids and stuff,
and that is what's going to happen when and in
the same breath as people talk about your musical genius,
they're also going to talk about your weirdness with little kids.
And I don't know if there's any way around that,
but will you watch it? Let us know, send us
a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com. Right now, Jimmy

(21:09):
Kimmel Live postponed. And I think this is twice this
has happened now in the last week or so.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
I didn't even know the first time.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
The show has postponed suddenly with no explanation, and they're saying,
like a mystery behind the scenes, some sort of personal matter.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
You know, it's all very very up.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
In the air, mysterious lingo that they're using. And there
was gonna be a big show on Thursday of this week,
So yesterday there's gonna be a big show where they
had the Stranger Things crew, So you obviously wouldn't want
to miss out on that if that was you know,
you're the host of this show, and they had to
cancel it last minute, they said, due to unforeseen circumstances. Now,

(21:50):
a lot of people you got the new Jimmy Kimmel controversy,
all the political stuff, and a lot of people look
at that and they're like, Okay, you know, Jimmy Kimmel,
what did you want to say something even more political?

Speaker 1 (22:01):
And the network was like, no, ABC's got enough problems, Jimmy,
you can't do this anymore. And I said this once,
cool Mike a little bit.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
I always try to tiptoe a little bit around the
Jimmy Kimmel stuff because he does have a child that
is very sick, has has a lot of health issues.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
His child has had a lot.

Speaker 2 (22:19):
Of heart issues growing up, and so it could be
some sort of medical thing that the family is dealing with.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
You never know. I just I, honest to God, do
not know.

Speaker 2 (22:29):
But there has been a bunch of mystery incidents behind
the scenes of Jimmy Kimmelive, where they've been suspending these shows,
postponing these shows, and rescheduling these shows. We'll see if
this continues on through the next few days or if
we learn more about it.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
But something's happening over there. Let us know what you think,
send us a dispatch.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Over at thenewsjunkie dot com. All right, a couple of
emails coming in, and Mike emails the show tips at
the neewsjunkie dot com and he says.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
Free years.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
We've listened to whenever taxes are leveled at the wealthy,
it's class warfare. This shutdown is an example of class
warfare against the poor. SNAP and insurance subsidies. Now that
the more affluent of us have been inconvenience, now the
handwaving starts. Flights canceled, Buddy, you know that's a joke, right,

(23:20):
You know that, like the reason why there is any
sort of expediency with which they're dealing with. The government
shutdown right now versus a couple of days ago, actually
doesn't have much to do with cancel flights. I hope
that you know that that's not really the driving force here.
It absolutely comes down to with all the things in

(23:41):
the government shutdown, the SNAP benefits. That's what the biggest
fight is over. That's what the battle for the you know,
the who the public is going.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
To blame is over.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
That's the only reason why there's been any sort of
new conversations he said, when they're done beating up on
the lowest wrong, it'll just move up the food chain.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
I think it's a mysterad.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
They're literally doing this because of the optics of the
snap benefits being cut off to a lot of Americans
in my estimation. But let me know what you think.
Send a dispatch record yours now over at thenewsjunkie dot com.
All right, when we come back, we'll get into some
of those reactions and dispatches. And a dating app is
about to do the unthinkable.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
This seems like a terrible idea. What are they going
to do?

Speaker 2 (24:24):
And you're probably on this dating app, by the way,
that is coming up next in the news junk Kie. Now,

(24:47):
nobody on this show, as far as I know, is
currently on a dating app. All right, nobody on this
show is currently on a dating app. If they are
quite the opposite, but they're going to be in trouble,
like they will be held the pay after the show
if one of us is busted on one of these
dating apps. Like when I teased this story earlier, I said,
now I'm pretty sure you're on one of these dating apps.

(25:09):
Wait till you hear this new feature that they're gonna
add ad, which is bad for everybody. Right, and Cordy goes,
I'm not on one of those dating apps. Are you
want to on one of those dating apps?

Speaker 12 (25:18):
No?

Speaker 1 (25:18):
No, no, no, I feel like it was.

Speaker 3 (25:21):
I was the most recent. Probably would have been on there.

Speaker 1 (25:24):
And you've used this app for sure, yeah, because you
you had Tinder before at some point, right, Yes.

Speaker 4 (25:31):
When we first heard the show, I had Tinder and
then I tried it again.

Speaker 3 (25:35):
It was a lot.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
I think it was when when Tinder had like first
come outs, when when you first had it, the first
go round single using the most popular dating app, they
got millions and millions and millions of users. See Lane
is not on on this apple, nor have you ever
used it.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
I don't think I know. I never really gave any
of those a shot. I think.

Speaker 8 (25:59):
I don't think was around before I met my wife.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
No, probably not when the Tinder start. I have two thousands.
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
Actually it's not in front of you. This is a
different day than I'm looking at. You can check that out.
But twelve okay, No, Tinder was around. Oh yeah, no,
Tinder was around before I just never.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
Got on it.

Speaker 8 (26:18):
I didn't make that that that didn't.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
Take that step. Well.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
Tinder tries to use as many signals as they can
to properly connect you to their other users.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
And really the only.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
Thing that they need to focus on is is this
person a good hot match for this person, because that's
how most of this stuff actually works. But they try
to use as many signals as they can to match.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
You up with somebody.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
And now what they want to do is they want
you to grant them access to your entire camera role
and they'll they'll go into your camera role, look at
all of your photos and learn from you from your photos,
and then use that to connect you with the right people.

Speaker 11 (27:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (27:06):
No, absolutely not, never million years.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
Like that's one of those things where when I'm on
my phone if I download a NAP but it's like
this app would like access to your full camera role.
I'm like, I don't have anything on my camera role
that I'm embarrassed by, but I still don't really.

Speaker 4 (27:20):
Want that because what does that mean for the future?
And did we take the time to read the forty
seven pages of terms and conditions?

Speaker 1 (27:27):
Because no, not, this is go ahead.

Speaker 4 (27:32):
No they And the other thing that pops up is
ask app not to track what you do because you
don't want them to track you, and then they make
it impossible for opening an app without that pop up happening.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
Like every single time.

Speaker 8 (27:47):
I just say track me, baby, track me, track me,
like it's going out of style. I want the ads
to be targeted, you know, when you give me, you know,
when you feel that your app is not making enough
money that you have to put advertising on there.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
I wanted to be listening. Yeah, I want stuff for me.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
In this case, they say, Tinder is looking to use
AI to revitalize its dating app, which has now reported
nine straight quarters of paying subscriber declines, and they've got
to have something that's going to really fire things up.
The new feature that they're testing out is called Chemistry,
and it will get to know users through questions and

(28:29):
with permission, will access camera roll photos on their phones
to learn more about their interest and personality. So like,
let's say you give it access to your camera roles.
It says, well, this person has some photos.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
From the zoo. They like going to the zoo.

Speaker 2 (28:43):
They took a photo of their voting ballot and here's
what they voted for.

Speaker 4 (28:47):
This person has fifteen thousand pictures of their alarm screenshot.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
This person has photos of them going to the gun range.
They're into that. They're like all these different things that might.

Speaker 1 (28:58):
Pop up, and they want to use that to connect
you with somebody else. I don't know if a lot
of people are going to be eager to do this though,
So that's why I throw it to you, those of
you in the audience who use tender, are you going
to allow them to have access to all this data?
Let us know Match dot Com is doing the same thing.

(29:18):
They want access to your camera role, they want to
use AI technology to learn more about you.

Speaker 3 (29:23):
And then still other dating.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
Apps are trying to do this and still well pay
for like the premium stuff I think, But I have
no idea because I'm not on any of these dating apps.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
I don't know what will cost money.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
I feel like there should be a little give and take,
Like if they want access to all of that with
the front of better chemistry, but you also know what
they're going to do, They're going to sell and it
makes more money, then how is there not like, well,
because we have access to your stuff indefinitely, I'm sure
here's a discount on.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Nobody does that. No, absolutely, no, that's just tender cost.

Speaker 3 (29:55):
So I never paid for it.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
But when I first had it, which was thirteen years ago,
it was just you swipe left or right. Now it's
like you have so and so amount of people who
like you, but in order to see it.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
Yeah, some months and then it's like ten bottles of it.

Speaker 3 (30:14):
Yeah, but there's levels of it too.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
It's ten bucks a month because you can do unlimited likes,
unlimited rewinds, no ads.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (30:22):
Then tender Gold is twenty five dollars a month. Platinus
thirty dollars may come on. Tender Select is five hundred
dollars a month.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
What in what do you get for your five hundred dollars?

Speaker 4 (30:34):
I don't know, get a professional matchmaker at this point.

Speaker 8 (30:37):
In twenty seventeen, their revenue rose nineteen percent compared to
twenty sixteen because of tender Gold. The paid member count
rose by a record four hundred and seventy six thousand
to more than two point five million due to product
changes and technology improvements. What was the most interesting thing
I think about the Wikipedia page here is that it's
like twenty twelve prototype and launch and like this sounds

(31:01):
funny to say, but when you really think about what
a big deal this is. It's like twenty thirteen swipe
feature development.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
Yeah, that's big.

Speaker 2 (31:09):
That's tenders drop the the Yeah, that was a big
thing that differentiated them from the rest of the pack.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
But are you still on these dating apps? Are you paying?

Speaker 2 (31:19):
Are you going to give them access to your photos
and this kind of stuff? Let us know how you
feel about the current status of all of that By
sending a dispatch over at thenewschunki dot com, you can't
get away from it. AI is absolutely ever present and
everywhere out there.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
As most of you.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Know already, We're going to get to some of your
dispatches here. We'll see what's going on in your world.
Lots of people chiming in on the show so far.
Love to see that, absolutely, and we've got, of course,
the next episode and more on the way. But I
did want to share with you a pretty fun moment.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
This was in This is in a Walmart.

Speaker 2 (31:57):
Parking lot, all right, smart parking lot where this went down.
Columbiana is the name of the city. I don't know
where that is. It says Alliance Police Department. This Alliance
excuse me, sorry, Algi is killing me today. Alliance Police
department is located in this is it right here, Ohio?

(32:20):
This this is Alliance, Ohio. So I believe that's where
this happened. And this police officer is, obviously, as you're
going to be able to tell you just a moment,
very surprised by the call that he's on. This is
a Walmart parking lot and there have been reports of
a man riding a bull in the parking.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Bull. I guess they call the cop for this. There
is I'm.

Speaker 12 (32:48):
Reading this right.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
Is he riding like an actual real bull?

Speaker 13 (32:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (32:55):
Okay, dude, what.

Speaker 3 (33:01):
The CoP's pulling uparters he's excited.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
Yeah, this this is a call you don't get every day.
Man riding bull in Walmart parking lot and he's pulling
up on him.

Speaker 1 (33:12):
Now I'm out with the subject with his bull. He
cannot believe he's saying this park that. Yeah, this is
very weird.

Speaker 2 (33:22):
I've used to telling you what kind of making model
their vehicle is, but right now, this is a dude
on a bull in a parking lot.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
There he is, Okay, a man on a bull.

Speaker 8 (33:37):
Honestly, I'd like to resubmit Sabrina's question, what is illegal
about this?

Speaker 1 (33:43):
I don't know. Is that not? Is it illegal to
be on a bull in a rando parking lot?

Speaker 3 (33:47):
Is the horse or acceptable?

Speaker 1 (33:52):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
Let me get a shot of this so I can
put it up on see it now. But the cop
is pulled up into the parking lot and there is
in fact a gentleman on a bull, and there was
some sort of altercation over this.

Speaker 1 (34:04):
Let's see what they said. They are absolutely good. I
have so many questions. I bet you too. The guy
is on the bull, I have so many questions for me.

Speaker 4 (34:19):
The bull is even like, get me out of the situation, please.

Speaker 14 (34:22):
You see this must be a more rural area of Ohio.

Speaker 8 (34:27):
It was a pretty calm bull. Yeah, he's just chilling. Yeah,
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
Chilled like this.

Speaker 8 (34:32):
When I think of riding a bull, I think you
are in like a ring and a rodeo and you
are probably gonna get bored.

Speaker 1 (34:39):
In the face.

Speaker 3 (34:40):
They do that stuff with the testicles, don't they. They
make the angry.

Speaker 2 (34:44):
Yeah, I think it can happen. They get those ones
fired up for the rodeo.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Sta chill. This guy's hanging out. This is Gus.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
This is Gus is famous.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
Absolutely you get.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
I'm all right right now if I fall, if I
get on Gus and I fall off Gus, and I'm
gonna get in trouble.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
Shut Goss is so chill. This thing is freaking adorable.

Speaker 15 (35:09):
Where's horns, They're just they're curved in. It's got little
tiny wa yeah, he's got a little tiny ones. He
looks so soft, folks. And again this will be up
and see it now in a second. Here and he's
just patting him this. This thing's not doing anything.

Speaker 5 (35:26):
He did it.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
Yeah, you take a picture on my phone.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
Come on, and you know, sir. The Karen is looking
out at this like.

Speaker 4 (35:38):
What the hell for a reason.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
The cops filming himself. They're filming the cop all of
this going down on top of a bull in a
Walmart parking lot. I'm grabbing this right now and putting
it up on see it now so he could take
a look.

Speaker 4 (35:53):
The end of the video though, he's like, all right,
you have the remains right to remain silence. We do
have to arrest you. We're gonna impound the ball. Oh god,
I'm getting a vibe that they let him go.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
H oh, yeah they did, Yeah they did. But there
was some sort of problem before all of this.

Speaker 8 (36:08):
That would be a hell of a dui arrest, though
if that guy were drunk. I mean, I wouldn't even
know what to.

Speaker 1 (36:13):
Do cop riding a bull, kind of riding a bull.
He's hon able more than anything. But it's up now
and see it.

Speaker 2 (36:22):
Now, take a look at the visual of this if
you're listening to the show today.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
But that's a good time. My god, you ever been
on top of a bull?

Speaker 2 (36:29):
You ever been on top of a horse, any sort
of animal like that.

Speaker 4 (36:37):
I didn't think that bulls and cows were rideable. You
don't see that often.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
What do you mean by rideable?

Speaker 3 (36:44):
What he's doing just like.

Speaker 4 (36:46):
Can saddle and you you can direct them in a
certain area. I mean, you just don't ever see someone
riding bull, you know, outside of the rodeo where it's
the whole Try to say on for eight seconds, like.

Speaker 2 (37:01):
Using a bull for a transportation. Yes, right, so we're saying,
I don't know that people do that. I don't know
that that's the thing outside of what this guy's doing.

Speaker 3 (37:09):
Hio weirdo.

Speaker 2 (37:10):
Well, we'll take you farmer folks, Ohio folks, for God's sake,
we will take your feedback your dispatches over at thenewsjunkie
dot com right now, all right, when we come back,
we'll get into some of your comments. We'll talk about
this something happening in the world of basketball, believe it
or not. And there is a story from WPTV down

(37:31):
in Boca Well, and the story's out of Boca at least,
and they're talking about something that's happened in the last
week that is really interesting. I want to get your
thoughts on this because that is coming up next.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
Some of the news Junkie.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
Well, there are elections this week, and despite the fact
that nobody has actually taken power yet, Like especially in
New York with the mayoral race, I think some people
think Mom Donnie is already in office and like things
are changing in New York. That's not how it works people,
all right. It is like you do the election and
then the time goes by, and then in January you

(38:22):
get the new mayor. But judging by some of the
stories that I'm seeing, and these aren't from like crazy
political websites or anything, WPTV the news website has been
doing an investigation into the reaction to Mom Donnie winning
in New York City, and of course he's a democratic socialist,

(38:43):
and a lot of businesses feel like he's not going
to be friendly to their business, and they think that
their taxes are going to be higher.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
I've heard Barstool.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
Sports, I think, has been talking about pulling out of
New York City. Some other businesses have been talking about
leaving New York City. And this is something that's up
into a lot of times over the years.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
So where's the president taking a go.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
The presidente I think he lives in Miami anyways, or
maybe he lives in multiple places now, but the actual
business is still in New York City, and I guess
he said that they're going to fade out of there.
I couldn't blame businesses for wanting to do this. I mean,
this is not exactly the guy that won in his
office is not exactly a business.

Speaker 1 (39:24):
Friendly or tax friendly guy.

Speaker 2 (39:26):
So if you solely look at it, not from like
an individual level, but from the level of if I
want to operate a business somewhere, do I want to
operate that business in New York City? I can't find
many things on the pro column personally, and a lot
of people I think are shifting over to the con
column here, and the story from WPTV says a wave

(39:47):
of New York City businesses are already heading to Florida.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
Like they said, this is huge.

Speaker 2 (39:54):
The quote was, what we're seeing is unprecedented, and it's
a huge spike in businesses that are moving from New
York City to Florida. Now, there are a lot of
businesses in New York, so that doesn't mean this is
going to have a huge impact on them just.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
Yet, but it could.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
And it says the morning after he won Mam Donnie
in New York and got the mayor position, Florida, business
relocation attorney Chad Cummings told WPTV he received five to
ten times his usual number of calls from New York
companies seeking the move to Florida. He said, my phone,

(40:31):
and I'm not exaggerating, it has literally been ringing off
the hook. I've not been able to leave my desk
since seven thirty this morning. What we're seeing is unprecedented.

Speaker 4 (40:39):
So when it comes to businesses moving besides physically, it
seems like there's a lot of paperwork involved.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
The stuff that you have to.

Speaker 3 (40:47):
Pay taxes on.

Speaker 4 (40:48):
Is that as easy as like box it up and
we'll start playing paying Florida taxes or there's kind of
attorney you have.

Speaker 1 (40:56):
To refile your company.

Speaker 2 (40:58):
I think in terms of like where you based out
of because that's where you pay taxes through. Even though
New York has tried to route around that a little bit,
New York has tried at some points to say if
you do business in New York, you must pay New
York taxes, which you know, I'm probably not gonna fly
with a lot of businesses, but you have to I
don't know if you have to reincorporate or or what,

(41:19):
but you have to file papers to say you're now
going to be operating out of Florida.

Speaker 1 (41:24):
In many cases you'll be moving. And they said places
like Boca Ratona are.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
Pomping off already. We are expecting even more calls. They
say the president of Florida's Council of one hundred welcome
to a lot of the new businesses and a press release.
So Florida is really seeing some of these folks who
are in New York City in particular, pick up their
businesses and head this way. If you're a business owner,
I know we've got a lot of listeners in New
York let us know, Like, has this made you question

(41:50):
any of this? Has this made you think about moving
your business. There's a lot of growth in that area,
and it's pretty attractive to move a business to the
state of Florida. I mean just living in Florida in
general is pretty attractive to me. To others, you know,
people have different views on it. But I love the
no state tax.

Speaker 1 (42:10):
It's very nice. No state income tax is fantastic. Businesses
pay state income tax, though right in Florida.

Speaker 2 (42:17):
I don't know how this works exactly, because that's a
different world of s corps and LLCs filing taxes and
how that works. If somebody else knows more, you can
let us know. But there are many benefits to running
a business in Florida as opposed to New York City.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
And we live in an.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
Ever connected world where like, you don't really need to
live in New York City to do business in New
York City, right, it's not that important.

Speaker 8 (42:42):
Around businesses In addition to collecting and remitting sales and
use tax, pay other specific taxes corporate income tax. Corporations
and other artificial entities that do business and earn income
in Florida must file and pay a corporate income tax
currently at a rate of five point five percent.

Speaker 2 (42:59):
Yeah, people also oalked by this, Like I just saw
somebody posting online and they said, hold on, is this
for real? And they had gotten their first paycheck working
in California, and they did the unthinkable. They looked at
their paycheck and the lines of taxes and withhold.

Speaker 3 (43:15):
It very sad, very quickly.

Speaker 1 (43:17):
And they're looking at it going on, wait, hold on,
hold on.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
That's the thing that'll turn you, I think in terms
of political affiliation when you go I want this and
I want this, and then all of a sudden you
get your paycheck in one of these places it's high tax,
especially if you got a good gig. That'll change you
real quick. That and running it up against red tape.
But a lot of these New York City businesses allegedly
at least heading over to Florida ahead of the mayoral

(43:47):
switch up. Let us know your thoughts. Go to thenewsjunkie
dot com right now.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
More.

Speaker 2 (43:52):
You probably dialed into this, if I'm honest, because I
saw the tears just flowing, just flowing this week because
Grand Theft Auto has once again delayed.

Speaker 4 (44:02):
GTA better be the greatest video game of all time
with the amount of delays they got fourth.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
I'm not a video game guy, so I could be
wrong on this, but I'm getting Duke Newcomb vibes here
where Duke Newcomb came out and then they said we're
gonna make another one and it was just like big
game at the time.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
And then the sequel took like ten years or something.
People were waiting and waiting, waiting, waiting.

Speaker 4 (44:28):
Delivered after ten years they did what we've been waiting
almost wasn't it?

Speaker 1 (44:34):
Was it twenty sixteen, the GTA five. The last one
was twenty thirteen.

Speaker 4 (44:39):
Yeah, I mean, come on, and then on top of
the teasers and the leaks and the trailer has already
been released and they're pushing it back again.

Speaker 1 (44:49):
You know. The craziest thing to be Sabrina to think
about there is grand Theft Auto five came out in
twenty thirteen, right twelve years ago, and it's still really popular.
Oh right, yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:00):
And if you think about when we were younger of
playing video games, if you would have said, oh, I'm
going to play at that point in time, like let's
say two thousand, I'm going to play a twelve year
old video game in two thousand. Nobody was playing old
video games back then.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
I don't know. I still like going back and playing
old video games.

Speaker 4 (45:17):
It was some like Super Nintendo South that I'd still
go play, but I was aware of what it was.

Speaker 3 (45:23):
I mean like like twelve years after.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
But was it relevant with so many people twelve years after?

Speaker 1 (45:30):
That's the crazy part about this. To me.

Speaker 8 (45:33):
Once a year I like to go back at least
and run through old game Boy games like Super Mario
Land or Kirby's Dreamland.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
Those are popular agame by the way.

Speaker 8 (45:44):
They're great, and I always think it's funny because I
do it on my TV and I'm like, these were
made by people who never thought you would have an
eighty six such television on your wall.

Speaker 4 (45:55):
Yeah, and it's just a tiny little block with the
black screen all around it. So now I wonder why
delay it instead of releasing it?

Speaker 3 (46:04):
Because they have.

Speaker 4 (46:06):
Like every other popular game, the opportunity to put a
little notification, hey we've got a new update to rollout,
and then you wait fifteen twenty thirty minutes.

Speaker 3 (46:16):
In and updates. How is this product not ready to
be released?

Speaker 1 (46:19):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (46:20):
Think they can't just set an update for in November
of next year.

Speaker 2 (46:24):
They are taking their sweet ass time and they're releasing
stuff like this. Here here's what they put out that
caused everybody to start crying. Who's like a video game fan? Hey, everybody,
this is Rockstar Games, the creator of Grand Theft Auto A.
Grand Theft Auto six will now release on Thursday, November nineteenth,
twenty twenty six. We are sorry for adding additional time

(46:46):
to what we realize has been a long wait, yeah,
twelve years, but these extra months will allow us to
finish the game with the level of polish you have
come to expect and deserve.

Speaker 4 (46:55):
They say, well, we have come to expect the game, yeah,
five years now.

Speaker 1 (47:01):
And then they said may. They said, we'll put it
out in May of twenty twenty six.

Speaker 2 (47:05):
Now November nineteenth, maybe of twenty twenty six.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
And wait, wait wait, wait wait wait wait, you might
get it someday to see that.

Speaker 8 (47:13):
You could have had a child after Grand Theft Auto
five was released, and by the time Grand Theft Auto
six comes out, that child will be looking forward to
driving in a couple of years.

Speaker 1 (47:24):
Uh huh, yeah, that's crazy. These people are just twiddling
their thumbs working on the production schedule for this video game.
And for those of you who are you know, not
in the world of video games, you might go, who cares.
It's huge, It's absolutely massive.

Speaker 2 (47:38):
In the video game world. A lot of people have
been following this closely. Let us know what you think.

Speaker 1 (47:42):
Set us a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com. All right,
let's see what we have here.

Speaker 2 (47:48):
This is a flip with a dispatch and you can
record your video or audio dispatch to get on the
show over at thenewsjunkie dot com right now, just like flip.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
Yeah, so Eastern how is weird?

Speaker 10 (48:00):
Man?

Speaker 16 (48:01):
It's it's not uncommon to see people riding their livestock
to the stores and stuff. Not usually bulls, but horses
for sure. And and gus is various down in those parts.
I used to work in Glammianna County, uh near Alliance,
and uh yeah, you see people riding their horses on
the roads all the time.

Speaker 1 (48:21):
Wow.

Speaker 16 (48:21):
And north of there where I lived up in Trumbull
and Ashtabula Counties, the uh, the walmarts up there have
the covered parking for the Amish when they shop, and
they you know, they they have a person that actually
tends to the horses. Why uh, the Amish are in

(48:42):
their shopping they provide fresh water and haos whatever.

Speaker 1 (48:46):
Ohio's This is such a different world.

Speaker 2 (48:49):
Then when I hear about this are like Amish town
in Pennsylvania, I'm gone.

Speaker 1 (48:56):
This is when you when you can go to the.

Speaker 2 (49:00):
Local big box store and they have people that will
tend to your cattle and horses. Will you get there?
It feels like I've gone back one hundred years in time.
Somehow I have time traveled, or I'm playing real life
Oregon Trail. That's what it feels like to me at least.
But there you go. Thank you for that. Thank you

(49:21):
for the dispatch less dysentery. Oh yeah, thank god. At
least when I'm playing, I.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
Feel a little bit of dysentery, but less for every time.

Speaker 2 (49:28):
A little Irish is talking about the discussion on dumb
people being able to vote because they said the voting
lines were crushed this week in Kentucky, with everybody in
Kentucky asking.

Speaker 1 (49:39):
Where do we vote? Hey, how do we vote for
or against? The mom?

Speaker 2 (49:43):
Donnie guy and the attorney general and other the Secretary
of State in Kentucky had to come forward and go guys,
Kentucky's not voting and you definitely don't vote for the
mayor of New York City in Kentucky. My god, what's
going on here?

Speaker 9 (49:59):
Here's a little Heyyr's junkies. You were I'm a podcast listener.
You were talking about dumb people shouldn't be able to vote. Well,
my dad has dementia, totally voted. I'm not saying he's dumb,
but he's not right. He doesn't remember a lot. I
am the person and I love him to death, but
I went with him to vote because he can't read anymore. Okay,

(50:22):
and you have I dispatched about this a while ago
during the last presidential election, so I had I had
to read everything to him out loud.

Speaker 3 (50:30):
You're in Texas.

Speaker 9 (50:31):
It was seventy two pages, and he remembered who the
president election was against Trump and Kamala, but the rest
of it, like he didn't know. He'd be like, ooh,
I like that name. That sounds pretty Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (50:46):
You know what the crazy thing is, he's still operating
with more info than a lot of voters.

Speaker 3 (50:50):
This and that's demographic by the thousands.

Speaker 2 (50:54):
Yeah, this guy voting and with dementia with you reading
it out to him, all the options in the voting
mark it's probably more common than we say we want
to vote for.

Speaker 9 (51:04):
And he was talking so loud and everybody was looking
at me. It was so embarrassing. So yeah, there, I mean,
there is no IQ test because my dad's vote have
not been able to vote had there been, but yep,
and we have very different views, so it was it
was difficult for me.

Speaker 2 (51:22):
You know, it's brutal because you're in that position of power.
It feels like you could go, hey, who do you
want to vote for?

Speaker 1 (51:29):
You want still.

Speaker 2 (51:32):
And then whoever he says, If you don't agree with him,
you just select the opposite one and gauge a little
voter fraud.

Speaker 1 (51:38):
But that's probably happening out there too.

Speaker 2 (51:41):
The whole thing is concerning everybody wants to register more
people to go to vote. I want fewer people. I
think there should be a higher bar to voting. I
don't think more people voting is just good by default.
There's a lot of things things that people think are
just good by default.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
Oh this is happening, that's good by default.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
What happens if idiocracy completely takes over and then we
have all these people who are running to the polls.
Who have you know, they can't even spell a word
any longer. They've been texting their whole lives. They can't
even get on a phone call without being crushed by anxiety.
And they're the people who are voting, and they have

(52:20):
an equal vote to yours. It's kinda in a way,
it's a little crazy. But tell us what you think.

Speaker 1 (52:26):
Send us a dispatch over at thenewschunkie dot com.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
Not too long ago, there was a big uproar. Remember
the comedians they were gonna be doing a comedy show
in Saudi Arabia.

Speaker 1 (52:38):
Oh, a lot of up What the hell?

Speaker 2 (52:43):
They They kill people for almost nothing over there, especially
being gay. Saudi Arabia doesn't let women do anything. And
we're going over there and we're doing a comedy show.
Now there's a new thing that was just unveiled in
Saudi Arabia. This one's not getting any heat though, And
I can't understand why.

Speaker 1 (53:01):
What is it? Are you going to be going? We'll
find out together. That's coming up next on the News Junkie.

(53:24):
One of these things that I saw in the stack
of news this week that I was kind of I
felt like I felt when I was younger and everybody
around me was in on something, and then I wasn't
in on it, and everybody's talking about something. You're like, wait,
hold on, this is a thing. I've never joke before.
Why one sometime, nobody's ever told me this in my life.

Speaker 2 (53:46):
They said that in Florida in particular, next week, it's
supposed to get really cold. Ic Okay, I get it.
That's that's normal. We deal with this stuff and it
gets colder certain times, ye know, is the a thing
I don't know, No, this is a different I think,
I think. But they said, make sure next week if
you're in an area where it's gonna get really cold,
and some of you are gonna.

Speaker 1 (54:07):
Be like, yeah, obviously, yeah, I get it. Oh yeah,
obviously I didn't notice. Make sure you put a sock
on the dash of your car.

Speaker 3 (54:14):
Oh no, I have never heard that in my life.

Speaker 1 (54:17):
For me to other and everybody was just talking about
it like this was a completely normal thing, Like oh yeah, yeah, no,
this is real. They said, you're supposed to put a
sock on the dashboard of your car when it gets colder.
And New York people might be freaking out.

Speaker 2 (54:31):
They might be like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we of course,
of course this is the thing.

Speaker 1 (54:35):
Once. I have never heard of this in my life.

Speaker 8 (54:38):
Oh my gosh, all those poor gep owners, what are
they going to do with their ducks?

Speaker 2 (54:42):
True, they got to get them out of the way
because they said, this is what you do. You can
put a sock on your dashboard. You could fill it
with dry rice, put it on your dashboard overnight, and
your windows won't be fogged when you want to go
to work in the morning. And it's a hack that
prevents moisture and fogging and all of that stuff.

Speaker 1 (55:04):
Having never heard this in my either, yeah, I'm.

Speaker 4 (55:07):
Sorry, but we also get fogged windows in heat and
humidity and those weird moments in Florida.

Speaker 3 (55:13):
And still I have never heard of the sock thing.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
I've never heard of this in my life.

Speaker 2 (55:17):
And there was a bunch of adults walking around, talking around.

Speaker 1 (55:20):
And going like, yeah, of course this is this thing.
This is the thing you do. Anybody heard of this before?
Is this something? If they're saying use a clean sock,
well yeah, of course, of.

Speaker 3 (55:30):
Car, what kind of rice?

Speaker 4 (55:31):
I made a mistake after spilling something on my laptop
and I just use whatever rice I had now my
laptop full broken, Yeah, with seasoning and tiny dried vegetables.

Speaker 1 (55:42):
Maybe just like.

Speaker 2 (55:44):
A plain white rice, maybe a Bosmadi or something.

Speaker 1 (55:48):
I'm not sure.

Speaker 8 (55:48):
There's another thing that they're recommending in one of these
this is a Reader's Digest article. Another thing that's not rice,
that you two would have that I wouldn't really, Yes,
what would you.

Speaker 1 (56:02):
Guys have that I don't have? You would have as
kitty litter?

Speaker 2 (56:06):
Oh not ter And I'll put kitty litter in a
sock and put it in my car.

Speaker 1 (56:12):
Yeah, no, I don't want to do this.

Speaker 4 (56:15):
The windows are on fog, but there is cat poopoo
on my own shield.

Speaker 2 (56:19):
Stats is a very very strange thing, and everybody just
acts like, oh, yeah, yeah, we've we've heard this.

Speaker 1 (56:25):
We've done this our whole lives. This is what we do.

Speaker 2 (56:27):
Somebody's saying, I lived in New York for twelve years
and I've never heard of that before. They were acting
like this was a normal thing. Hey, you got to
do it, I said, live in Orlando. Here's why you
should leave a sock in your car overnight. Just in
case you think I'm making this up, this was just
a completely normal conversation to some people. Here, here's one
of the headlines. Here's why you should leave a sock

(56:49):
in your car overnight. Foggy windows may be a bigger
issue as temps drop, it says, And there's just one
of many that I saw today. And it'll stop from
fogging up your windows if you do this, or just hit.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
The button that takes the fog off your windows in
like five seconds. By the way, yeah, sometimes not so
much is that you don't have to use dry rice
if you don't want to.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
You can also fill the sock with Honeyca Joe fill
a sock with Yeah, yeah, this is a joke.

Speaker 3 (57:26):
With honey, and you're spreading the prank shown I'm not.

Speaker 1 (57:31):
It's a real story. I swear to God. I'm looking
at it right here, am I not?

Speaker 2 (57:34):
Hold on the go You to the headline you should
leave a sock in your car overnight, and you could
fill it with honey. And nobody on this show has
a honey sock. It's just a really unfortunate thing to
admit out loud, but we don't.

Speaker 1 (57:48):
And I want to know if you've.

Speaker 2 (57:49):
Ever heard this before, or if this is some sort
of elaborate prank to try to make us look dumb
by getting us to put a stinky sock on.

Speaker 1 (57:56):
The honey is not cheap for a whole sock full.

Speaker 4 (58:01):
Are you supposed to use just generic honey or that
of the local bees?

Speaker 3 (58:04):
So that let's go for your allergies.

Speaker 2 (58:06):
The little bear one right, that's with the little like
tip on it. There, the little bear shaped one. You
get three or four of those, fillip a sock. You
got your honey sock, and your window will not at all.

Speaker 4 (58:19):
I don't so the rice and the silicon, what does it.

Speaker 1 (58:23):
Beads the silica things?

Speaker 3 (58:24):
Yeah, that makes sense.

Speaker 4 (58:25):
That absorbs moisture, even some soris, right, honey, I've this
is the first I'm hearing that it absorbs same moisture.

Speaker 3 (58:33):
And then but we're not seep through the song and
you have sticky.

Speaker 2 (58:36):
Look you see a Dashboardesse, you don't think I'm lying here.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
The company also lays out some alternatives.

Speaker 2 (58:42):
To dry rice that may help absorb moisture, and it says,
honey right on the list, this is.

Speaker 8 (58:48):
What the hell is that thing that's like six down
like hespero.

Speaker 1 (58:55):
That hespero steepa What the hell is that? Yes, this
is as. You don't have a honeysock or hesperoway felici DoD.
You don't have a.

Speaker 3 (59:08):
Sock full of that, so spelt it correctly.

Speaker 1 (59:12):
It's grass grass and you got a grass sock, a honeysock,
You got to have all those. Some younger guys have
a different kind of sock that is a bit drier.
You can use that too. You put it on the dashboard.

Speaker 3 (59:25):
The needle and thread grass or needle grass.

Speaker 1 (59:29):
All right, there you doing any of these things.

Speaker 3 (59:31):
I think I'm gonna bring a towel and wipe down mine.

Speaker 2 (59:34):
I think I think we're right to point out, Hey,
why don't you just hit the defrost button.

Speaker 1 (59:38):
It doesn't take long. It's twenty twenty, okay, but listen
to me.

Speaker 4 (59:42):
Have you ever had that defrost moment where it's making
it even more foggy and you can't see anything while
you're driving?

Speaker 1 (59:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 14 (59:48):
I have.

Speaker 1 (59:48):
I have.

Speaker 2 (59:49):
But do I want a honeysock on my dashboard to
combat this? I don't think so. I I'd rather not
let us know what you think. Send us a dispatch

look stupid.

Speaker 8 (01:00:11):
Rub a potato on your windshield, cut a raw potato
in half.

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
This clever heck costs under a dollar and it really works.
The starch in a potato can produce a thin coating
on your windows to prevent fogging. Oh yeah, like old
wives tales or something real angry. But we'll we'll check
in with you.

Speaker 2 (01:00:33):
Maybe you've heard of this, maybe you swear by it,

Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
Real quick, we talked about the comedians in Saudi Arabia.

Speaker 2 (01:00:54):
Well, mister Beasts, the YouTuber with the four hundred and
fifty million subscribe on YouTube, is launching a whole ass
theme park in Saudi Arabia. He says next week are Beastland.
The brand new theme park opens. We built custom games
modeled after our videos that don't exist anywhere else, and

(01:01:15):
we will have the world's largest prize wall. And he
shows what the Beastland theme park in Saudi Arabia will
look like. And everybody gave so much gruff and heat
to those comedians for performing over there. Are they going
to perform at this place? By the way, this looks
incredibly temporary. What I'm looking at here, This looks a

(01:01:36):
spirit Halloween theme park. Yeah, yeah, this looks like it's
not long for the Saudi Arabian world.

Speaker 4 (01:01:43):
But yeah, yeah, we're saying it's part of the ri
odd seasonal cultural event that is essentially like the comedy Fast,
just the pop up moment for the government to make
them capital.

Speaker 1 (01:01:55):
They have so much money over there, they do in
Saudi Arabia. They got enough money to go.

Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
Mister b We want to do a theme park that'll
be up for the weekend. And you could take a
look at this and sign off on it. But will
people get mad about this too?

Speaker 1 (01:02:08):
This?

Speaker 2 (01:02:09):
This is no different I don't think right then, performing
a comedy show a stand up gig in Saudi Arabia.

Speaker 4 (01:02:15):
He's talking directly to the citizens of Saudi Arabia.

Speaker 1 (01:02:18):
That's what the comedian say, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:02:20):
Exactly, and they're still going to get big bucks and
it's going to have an extra dose of neon. As
you saw if you're watching the stream that big catapults
people dropping through trapdoors, mazes, et cetera. As with many things,
attachments or Beast, you can find uh kid fitted versions.

Speaker 3 (01:02:39):
Should you want to bring your child? Howdy Arabia.

Speaker 2 (01:02:42):
I mean, I'm sure it looks fun, but ain't nothing
going to drag me to Saudi Arabia.

Speaker 1 (01:02:46):
I'm not interested. I've seen sand before.

Speaker 2 (01:02:48):
I'm not interested in mister Beast's arena inside of a
parking lot area.

Speaker 1 (01:02:54):
It's a noe for me. But maybe you think differently.
Let us know.

Speaker 2 (01:02:58):
Send a dispatch the news Junkie dot Com quick break,
let me come back the next episode with Sabrina. What's
coming up on the next episode?

Speaker 4 (01:03:08):
What's coming new on the next episodeiode just when he
thought it ended with them. Blake Lively submits new legal
documents for her lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. Instead of money
where mouth is, Sidney Sweeney is putting her training where
a charity boxing ring is plus insert here. The song

(01:03:28):
and story about mister bast New theme park, all that
so much more coming up on the next episode.

Speaker 1 (01:03:34):
And that is coming up next on the News Junkie
Newsjunkie dot Com. I was just thinking during the break,

(01:03:57):
I was thinking.

Speaker 2 (01:03:58):
About how many any eggs a chicken could lay and
how absolutely into staking my ground in that debate I
am right now, I've figured it out. It is probably
two in a day at least, I think perhaps higher,
maybe even into the double digits if you really get

(01:04:19):
the chicken fired up and ready to go.

Speaker 1 (01:04:22):
And I just I wanted to put that out there.

Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
If there's a chance, the slightest chance that import Saint Lucy,
the guy who freaked out about that at the beginning
of the show is listening. I would love for that
guy to be out there somewhere, just tuned into the program.

Speaker 1 (01:04:37):
Fired up again, ready to murder somebody. He fired like
four shots in a parking lot outside of a bar
over an egg fight. If you miss that, go back
to the beginning of the show, because it was a weird,
weird story you can't miss. In the meantime, let's get
into it.

Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
Let's do the next episode, because there's a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:04:57):
On TV and you can't possibly keep up with all
of it. I know you should, because what else are
you gonna talk about? We love your Black Leaner too, mister.
Oh my nice. It's time for the next episode with Sabrina. Hey,

awesome website. That website is www. That Mortgage Guy Don

Speaker 3 (01:05:58):
Thirty four years ago, nineteen ninety one.

Speaker 4 (01:06:01):
And this guy right here pled no contests to charges
of a very indecent exposure.

Speaker 3 (01:06:15):
Yes, he was a residence Henrinesota, Florida.

Speaker 1 (01:06:18):
For exposing his p oh, I guess that's a illegal.

Speaker 4 (01:06:25):
It was a naughty not a movie theater, which I
mean he definitely was not the first or last to
do that I know.

Speaker 3 (01:06:32):
Since then, that theater has been.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
Closed, but how most of them are, Like are there
still adult movie theaters?

Speaker 3 (01:06:40):
I don't think it's a theater anymore.

Speaker 4 (01:06:41):
I think it's like you have rooms that you can
go into, which is still very strange. Didn't you find
or get like pictures of that movie theater after it's
been abandoned and there.

Speaker 3 (01:06:55):
Was like, you know, everywhere.

Speaker 2 (01:06:58):
No, but I would imagine that would be saying it
just makes sense.

Speaker 3 (01:07:03):
Without a doubt.

Speaker 4 (01:07:05):
And I believe there was the title Tiger something Tiger
involved in the porn he was watching and masterbating too.
Now let's go back to present time, and just when
he thought it was over, Blake Lively is now submitting
new documents in the it does not end here with
us at all lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. Yeah, quite the claim.

(01:07:32):
She says she lost a boat load I would say
two boatloads of money as a result of Justin Baldoni's
alleged smear campaign against her. She's asking a judge to
award her not one, not two, but one hundred and
sixty one million dollars in damages.

Speaker 2 (01:07:49):
Actually it's actually more than that in total. I think
in total between all of the things she's asking for
Blake Lively in this lawsuit. I think it's about half
a billion dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:08:01):
Yeah, that she's asking.

Speaker 4 (01:08:03):
Her attorney's claim the actress lost fifty six point two
million in earnings past and future from her acting and
producing gigs, as well as speaking engagements and endorsements. Also
claimed Baldoni's reported mudslinging financially hurt Blake's haircare brand Blake Brown,
to a two of forty nine million dollars her drink
company Betty Buzz Betty Booze, which lost twenty two million dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:08:27):
They also say.

Speaker 4 (01:08:28):
Blake took a thirty four million dollar hit to a
reputation after she found sixty five million negative impressions about
her on social media.

Speaker 3 (01:08:37):
Once you do all the mathing, it's a whole lot
of money.

Speaker 11 (01:08:41):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:08:41):
What's tough about that?

Speaker 2 (01:08:42):
How do you determine whether it was it was somebody
like defaming her or what if people just learn more
about you and didn't like you.

Speaker 4 (01:08:50):
I mean, there was a lot of stuff that was
coming out those interviews, like the baby bump one was weird, but.

Speaker 8 (01:08:56):
It was even arguably contagious, Like moving on to Ryan
Reynolds too, which I thought was impossible to hate, and
people were like, well because of his connection to Blake
Lively and everybody thinks she's awful. Now he was starting
to catch strays and I was like, no, that, I
would never have seen that coming.

Speaker 4 (01:09:17):
So she remember initially had sued him for online smears,
sexual harassment. Up she complained about that. He countersued, saying
he suffered four hundred million in damages, and then that
was dismissed this year when a judge ruled that he
didn't have the right to sue for defamation over accusations
written in illegal filing.

Speaker 3 (01:09:37):
And then boom, come next March.

Speaker 4 (01:09:39):
Twenty twenty six. This we'll see its day, question mark
and civil.

Speaker 1 (01:09:43):
Court con for so long.

Speaker 3 (01:09:46):
Man, too long, and everyone's kind of annoyed with it. Yeah,
we'll see what happens.

Speaker 4 (01:09:51):
Sidney Sweeney is putting her training where her fists are,
but money where mouth is, boxing training where a charity
ring is, because she is now telling the world after
her training for Christy was put to the test, she
wants to fight in a charity boxing match.

Speaker 1 (01:10:12):
Oh God, that's a bad idea.

Speaker 2 (01:10:14):
Why getting in these boxing matches? If they actually hit
each other. I've seen amateurs boxing each other, and I
feel like it does so much more damage than the professionals.

Speaker 3 (01:10:25):
Because you don't know what you're doing.

Speaker 1 (01:10:27):
They don't have a clue. Yeah, in yourself. She's for
a movie, being.

Speaker 2 (01:10:35):
Trained to do something in a movie and then actually
doing it in real life.

Speaker 1 (01:10:40):
I feel like it's very different.

Speaker 4 (01:10:42):
It was two and a half months to play the
boxer Christy Martin and Christy and she fell in love
with boxing. She says, sign me up. This isn't a
hypothetical as you actually think it is. She wants to
do a charity boxing match. It's a surprise. You'll have
to wait. I'm serious. You gotta stay tuned for the
pay per view and you'll see it end. So we'll

(01:11:03):
see if we do and yeah, same, It's just does
that mean another actress that has been trained to portray
a boxer for film?

Speaker 1 (01:11:14):
Oh? You know you can have who's the one with no? No, no,
no no.

Speaker 2 (01:11:19):
She got to fight the woman the crazy Overbite from
White Lotus hates you?

Speaker 1 (01:11:24):
Oh yeah, wait they hate each other.

Speaker 2 (01:11:26):
Wow, she's been throwing the overbite girl from White Lotus,
who she got first of all, the only reason.

Speaker 1 (01:11:33):
She's famous is because of this.

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
This has really made her look an interesting thing and
made her kind of unique as an actress. But then
she was upset that people were talking about her having
an over Oh lady, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:11:45):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 (01:11:46):
She was famous for skins, but it was across the bond.

Speaker 2 (01:11:49):
She has in the last week or so gone after
Sidney Sweeney still about this stupid jeans thing and like
this is the biggest nontroversy ever. But she she was
going after her for that. So there's like a good
drama at the center. And then if to box it out.

Speaker 8 (01:12:05):
It would be a fantastic uh like promotion kind of
thing because it's the battle of the White Lotus alumni.

Speaker 1 (01:12:13):
Yeah, I'd watch I'd watch that.

Speaker 4 (01:12:16):
Would you watch this? Because it is way long overdue?
But reports is getting her own moment in the spotlight No.

Speaker 1 (01:12:29):
Miss Piggy.

Speaker 4 (01:12:34):
They're saying, uh, Miss Piggy is going to get her
own solo movie because no one asked for it, so
they gave it to you, Miss Piggy.

Speaker 3 (01:12:43):
I mean, I do grew up.

Speaker 4 (01:12:45):
With Miss Piggy. I like that she's an independent pig woman.

Speaker 2 (01:12:49):
I don't know she's bitchy though, that's her whole thing,
and she treats Kermit like crap.

Speaker 1 (01:12:58):
Kermit is just over heels for that.

Speaker 3 (01:13:01):
In the closet a little bit, do you think so?
In the early stages at this.

Speaker 1 (01:13:05):
Why do you think he sings so many songs about rainbows? Right?

Speaker 3 (01:13:08):
Yeah, okay, the queer agenda.

Speaker 4 (01:13:10):
Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone are producing it, all right,
that's gonna be funny. They're probably star in it too,
because Jennifer says, we have to Dot do Dot.

Speaker 3 (01:13:20):
It's fed up that.

Speaker 4 (01:13:21):
We haven't done a movie together, so they picked Miss
Piggy to do said movie together. Jennifer made the surprise
announcement on Las Cultura's podcast.

Speaker 2 (01:13:31):
I'll tell you the only thing I would really genuinely
like to see from Sesame Street was I would like
to see a feature length movie of when they did
the SNL digital short about Oscar the Grouch drug problem,
uh that I would legit watch. It was like gritty,
it was like The Joker, but it was Oscar the Grouch, and.

Speaker 1 (01:13:54):
I would they did the same They did the same
thing for a yeah. Well, when he the guy from
Last of Us.

Speaker 4 (01:14:01):
Pedro Pascal so good, that was very funny. Is this
funny or do you think he's any good at it?
Reports are saying that we got the job title for
puff Daddy.

Speaker 3 (01:14:14):
Did he do it? Combs?

Speaker 4 (01:14:16):
Uh huh, and it's all about folding clothes.

Speaker 1 (01:14:21):
He is back to basics.

Speaker 3 (01:14:23):
Having the first prison job is doing laundry.

Speaker 4 (01:14:26):
According to tmz uh, he is in his fifty month
prison sentence. He was sentenced of course after the July conviction.
He's going to be released as soon as May eighth,
twenty twenty eight. According to these reports, he's folding laundry.

Speaker 7 (01:14:41):
Damn.

Speaker 8 (01:14:42):
When was the last time you think Sean Puffy Combs
did laundry?

Speaker 1 (01:14:48):
Couldn't tell you when he.

Speaker 14 (01:14:49):
Was a kid, probably made Yeah, I think this is
that raudre. I mean, there's think of the maddest person
in the world and they're only half as mad as
did He is every day behind.

Speaker 4 (01:15:03):
Bars and now he has a look at skid marks
and send him in the wash again and then.

Speaker 1 (01:15:09):
Followay, I don't care what means, don't care?

Speaker 4 (01:15:14):
So well, he's folding laundry in prison. We have GEZ
break in world records. We finally, Yeah, if you think
you've seen it all, hold my beer. Gez just proved
he's always climbing to new heights despite being this being
the first time I've talked about him and I think
ten years. He has set the Guinness World Record for

(01:15:38):
performing a record with a one hundred one piece orchestra.

Speaker 1 (01:15:42):
To show that's pretty cool.

Speaker 4 (01:15:44):
I don't think you beat out anybody, but now I
guess the stakes are high if anyone wants to do it.

Speaker 1 (01:15:49):
Damn we could have done something like this.

Speaker 3 (01:15:52):
We weren't orchestra.

Speaker 2 (01:15:53):
Well, when we were doing the roast, there was that
other event going on that was a fancy height opera thing.
There's on a record we could have broken for those people.

Speaker 4 (01:16:02):
He's currently in the middle of a brief residency in Vegas,
and thanks to that residency, he holds the title for
the largest orchestra ever gathered for the purpose of a
hip hop music concert, presented by of course, Ginnis World Records.
He shared his new world record on Instagram, Jezy writing,
it has always been my purpose to motivate.

Speaker 3 (01:16:24):
And inspire my culture.

Speaker 4 (01:16:26):
Speaking of culture, stuff on the boob tube, that's up
to you. Drink water, stay safe, watch whatever you want.
I'm in the midst of stranger things to catch up
for the new season.

Speaker 3 (01:16:37):
Ooh, coming up? I forgot everything, but most importantly, follow
your dream. Send me on Instagram. That's a brit abrom
and stay with me America.

Speaker 1 (01:16:46):

Speaker 2 (01:16:48):
Thank you, Sabrina. The Stranger Things series went.

Speaker 1 (01:16:53):
What is it? Is it like this week or next week?

Speaker 3 (01:16:56):
Six or twenty four six?

Speaker 1 (01:16:57):
Okay, so it's a little while left.

Speaker 2 (01:16:59):
Still they have and doing so much promotion for this,
so much promotion there.

Speaker 4 (01:17:04):
I mean I started from episode one of season one,
and you don't realize there's a lot of content that
I completely forgot about.

Speaker 2 (01:17:13):
Did you see that at the premiere they had David
Harbor and Millie Bobby Brown, And because all the drama
was about David Harbor was bullying her, and and the
girl who plays Eleven and the guy who plays Heart,
I think the two of them were like fighting and feuding.

(01:17:34):
And when you see them on the red carpet or
this carpet, it looks like they're just it looks like
they're friends. Here you never know, you never know, but
they got to be purpose one.

Speaker 4 (01:17:48):
Suit, it came out that she had filed a complaint
like an internal thing really after you know, leading up
to the season, but I don't know if she herself
mentioned it.

Speaker 1 (01:18:02):
It seems like they're getting on now.

Speaker 3 (01:18:04):
So this is the last season to promote.

Speaker 1 (01:18:08):
Yeah, I guess I gotta get together. This is Mellie.

Speaker 2 (01:18:10):
Bobby Brown reportedly filed harassment and bulland claim. But I
still don't know if all of this is coming from
like Lily Allen stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:18:17):
It's a whole dramatic thing. It's a whole thing.

Speaker 2 (01:18:19):
All Right, We're gonna take a quick break. Let me
come back this week in Florida.

Speaker 1 (01:18:23):
And I've done my best to take away as many
stories from Christopher Delores Land as it possibly could.

Speaker 8 (01:18:29):
We haven't done this in two weeks, three weeks. There's
plenty of stories. I know you've taken. I've been going
through the stories and I was like, Sean took this one,
Sean took that one. But I do have some fire,
including a woman getting interviewed that just has all the
funnest things to say.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
All right, Okay, we'll see this week in Florida around
up of everything happening in Florida.

Speaker 1 (01:18:53):
Well in the last week or so, that is coming
up next on the news.

Speaker 2 (01:18:57):

you ready, see Lane, I'm ready, Sean, here we go.
Let's do this Week in Florida. We're giving you a
recap of the most grown worthy stories in the States.

Speaker 1 (01:19:47):
It's this Week in Florida. That's right, the weekend is here.

Speaker 8 (01:19:51):
It's time to take a trip around the Sunshine State
see some of the craziness that has gone on in
the past seven days or more.

Speaker 1 (01:19:57):
Because apparently the.

Speaker 8 (01:19:58):
Government shutdown has just affected this week in Florida. We
got the court to push through some emergency funds and
we're back with some of the craziness from Florida. But
other things that are being affected by the government shut down.
Some of the lesser talked about things are VA benefits

(01:20:20):
and it's particularly affecting this one person, although he doesn't
know about it. You see Jim Brody, who is a
US Air Force veteran. He died on October fourth, Oh
my God, and his body has remained at a Kasimi
funeral home for more than a month because the government
shutdown has left his caregiver struggling to secure funeral benefits

(01:20:42):
from the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Speaker 1 (01:20:44):
Jesus, so's weird. The VA, I get.

Speaker 8 (01:20:47):
I didn't know this gives you a certain amount of
help with funeral funds, but they can't do it there.
It's hard to get while the government is shut down.

Speaker 4 (01:20:59):
And I imagine there's probably a fee that comes along
with his body just being there.

Speaker 2 (01:21:04):
Right, One would think, yes, a storage fee.

Speaker 1 (01:21:09):
He's got to be something like that.

Speaker 8 (01:21:11):
Caregiver Leah Galbrath says she spent weeks trying to confirm
his burial benefits but can't get clear answers due to
agency shut agency shutdowns and confusion about the application process.
While many services are still covered, the VA has temporarily
ceased or reduced new applications for pre need burial in
national cemeteries. No new presidential memorial certificates are being printed.

(01:21:36):
No grounds maintenance or placement of permanent headstones and national cemeteries.
Just a whole bunch of things that are part of
this government shutdown that nobody's talking about. This is not
Snap Benefits true, however, Randy Fine is talking about Snap
Benefits though. Representative Randy Fine appeared on Newsmax as forty
two million Americans go without federal food assistance, including sixteen

(01:21:59):
million in children.

Speaker 1 (01:22:00):
Florida Rep.

Speaker 8 (01:22:01):
Randy Fine took to Newsmax to shame Americans who receive
help through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance program, demanding that they
show gratitude and admit their own choices in life led
them to relying on the popular anti poverty program.

Speaker 4 (01:22:16):
Okay, can they watch that programming? He says.

Speaker 8 (01:22:21):
He says, No one is entitled to food stamps. That
is a gift that is given to you by your
fellow taxpayers because you are unable to care for yourself.
So a couple couple people not really thrilled with the
comments from mister Randy Fine. An update in a story
we had a handful of weeks ago, there was a
teacher that was the subject of a complaint for a

(01:22:45):
song she sang to some students in her class.

Speaker 1 (01:22:48):
Do we remember this teacher.

Speaker 8 (01:22:52):
A monkey one happy birthday and she sang the silly
version is what she called it. Well, that elementary school
teacher will remain in the class from the school. District
investigated her after she sang a birthday song to a student.
County school said they found no evidence that this teacher
meant any harm. The version of the song she sang,
according to the child's parent, was offensive and racially insensitive.

(01:23:15):
The investigation included interviews with several students as well as
the teacher. According to the report, Langston sung what she
called the silly version of the happy birthday song to
students of various races. While the district acknowledges the intent
doesn't erase impact, that concluded the song did not target
the student.

Speaker 3 (01:23:33):
She's been told no more happy birthdays.

Speaker 8 (01:23:35):
She's been told to stop singing the song and also
stop filming students.

Speaker 3 (01:23:38):
Okay, so a pretty sure job.

Speaker 4 (01:23:40):
Did we not talk earlier this week about a woman
or a sub teacher, mind you, who was fired for
filming students about this birthday song?

Speaker 1 (01:23:50):
With that was the damn shorty girl. Yeah yeah, yeah,
but this woman. This woman, as far as.

Speaker 2 (01:23:58):
I know, did not host this on social media, right correct.
I think she sent the video to the parent she
did this. I got mad for the record. I think
this is it Sea and this is a can.

Speaker 1 (01:24:10):
We say happy birthday to you?

Speaker 17 (01:24:12):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:24:12):
Here we go, Happy birthday? Do you? Everybody's singing along
in the class. This was just for the mom she recorded.

Speaker 10 (01:24:29):
Like the funny song now that I sang to you
like this, Oh yeah birthank you you.

Speaker 7 (01:24:36):
Live?

Speaker 3 (01:24:38):
You monkey?

Speaker 15 (01:24:44):
What she thought?

Speaker 8 (01:24:46):
Everybody because she went for it, couldn't get through the
silly version of the happy birthday song?

Speaker 3 (01:24:51):
And can see.

Speaker 1 (01:24:56):
She got it. She got like one finger in an air.

Speaker 8 (01:25:00):
She gets to keep her job, but a former Deltona
School principle does not. He has resigned after something which,
my gosh, we are all criminals if this is illegal.

Speaker 1 (01:25:11):
I don't like this.

Speaker 3 (01:25:12):
Teachers.

Speaker 8 (01:25:14):
Now, things were bad enough when Christopher Mertz was notified
on May thirtieth he was going to be terminated after
a Velusia County School investigation found he engaged in an
inappropriate romantic relationship with a subordinate employee. Apparently, he was
dating one of the teachers and gave her a raise.
Took her to some magic games or something. That part
he admitted to, but he denies the romance. And then

(01:25:35):
he was arrested on September third. That's when things got worse.

Speaker 4 (01:25:38):
Okay, yeah, to be clear, we didn't do this stuff
prior to that.

Speaker 8 (01:25:43):
No, no, no, no, no. This is what the arrest was
for swimming while intoxicated.

Speaker 3 (01:25:51):
Okay, that's it, no way, yeah, just.

Speaker 8 (01:25:55):
And the arrest is like, that's when things we've all
thought it all.

Speaker 1 (01:26:00):
I've actually done it where he's done it. Where we
got arrested.

Speaker 3 (01:26:03):
For it's illegal to swim.

Speaker 8 (01:26:05):
Yes, just before four pm on Wednesday, September third, a
Volusia County Sheriff's deputy arrested Mertz on a county ordnance
violation of swimming while intoxicated. Beach Patrol Officer Brian Walcott
observed the principal swimming and stumbling in the ocean in
New Summerna Beach.

Speaker 1 (01:26:22):
Today. I learned it is illegal to be drunk in
New Summerna Beach in the water.

Speaker 2 (01:26:26):
Like, so this is specific to a place then, because yes,
like I would think if you took Volcano Bay the
water park they sell alcohol then.

Speaker 1 (01:26:37):
Right, No, this is just a beach rule.

Speaker 4 (01:26:40):
So it's justice beach, I imagine made because of you know,
looking out for the safety of the civilians. Right, So
then why are we turning it into an arrestable offense,
Like didn't you just say you're not allowed here, time
to get out of the water, you're gonna die.

Speaker 8 (01:26:57):
One would think that would be the answer. But Mertz
was falling over, swaying unnaturally, and rolling in the rough
waves while submerged in the water. According to the arrest affidavit,
the sheriff's sergeant observed him stumbling across traffic lanes, slurring
his words, and had the smell of alcohol on his breath.
He was taken to jail for this and his vehicle
was towed. After more than nine hours in jail, he

(01:27:19):
was released on a five hundred dollars cash bond. He
signed a Velusia County School separation form marking family as
his reason for leaving the school. And there's some other
things there, probably not just family, but swimming while intoxicated.
Come on, now, that's weird. That's not something that I
knew was something you can get in trouble for.

Speaker 1 (01:27:38):
And in New Summerna Beach definitely a bit violent. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:27:43):
A Brooksville woman in Tampa, Lori Green, says she started
receiving mail at her home over the summer addressed to yes, yeah,
but it wasn't addressed to her. It was addressed to
a garage door company called Level Garage Door LLC.

Speaker 1 (01:27:58):
Okay, listen.

Speaker 8 (01:27:59):
She had never heard of this company. She thought it
was a mistake, but then more mail arrived, so she
went online to research the company and found the website
for Level Garage Door Repair LLC. Was showed that the
company operated at her address. Who says, I found that
they were using my address, not only used my address,

(01:28:20):
but gave directions to my home with a picture of
my home on the website. We're on a dead end street.
We get cars drive by slow and look at our house,
and it's what's this about? Are they looking to see
if it's the garage business? It's alarming. She has reported
the fraud of the Florida Department of.

Speaker 4 (01:28:34):
Stay eight A second, So if you start receiving mail
that is your address, but somebody else's name and or company, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:28:40):
You're not supposed to open it.

Speaker 3 (01:28:41):
Still, No, I'm not.

Speaker 4 (01:28:42):
I'm not saying I'm opening it should I look into
if someone's using my house as fraud?

Speaker 8 (01:28:47):
They could, you could, yeah, she She reported the fraud
to the Florida Department of State and they made her
proof she owned the house man, which is totally weird.
The Better Business that's a hard word guest. The Better
Business Bureau said they don't have specific complaints about this business,
but they have a growing number complaints of garage door companies,

(01:29:08):
which is weirdly specific. Using other people's home and business address.
They said, it's an effort to conceal their identity.

Speaker 1 (01:29:16):
Well, we heard that the.

Speaker 8 (01:29:17):
New Yorkers want to come to Florida, but I got
bad news for some of them.

Speaker 1 (01:29:20):
Uh oh.

Speaker 8 (01:29:21):
A growing number of Floridians are seriously considering leaving the
Sunshine State over the cost of living. Researchers with the
Florida Atlantic University's Business and Economic Polling Initiative or BEPI,
surveyed a thousand Floridians on their economic concerns, household budgets,
and constraints to see if the American dream still feels attainable.

(01:29:41):
That sounds so lame, they said. Fifty three percent of
the people surveyed no longer believe or no. Three percent
do believe in the American Dream. The forty two percent
said no. They said half of Floridians considered moving out
of the state. Do the cost of living with twenty
six percent of respondents seriously considering.

Speaker 3 (01:30:02):
We are you gonna go?

Speaker 2 (01:30:04):
Yeah, it's pretty expensive everywhere where you're like, if you're
close to a city, it's pretty expensive. And then the
problem really is it's like housing is the biggest thing,
but also like transportation. We've talked about how expensive cars
are and that stuff, So those things are really expensive now.

Speaker 1 (01:30:25):
But I'm staying put.

Speaker 8 (01:30:27):
Over to Miami Gardens to a McDonald's, which is the
link that I sent you Sean and your Gmail. A
woman says she was ready to defend her family after
police set of South Florida McDonald's worker pulled a gun
in the drive through lane early Sunday morning. Chayton Timmins
says she was in the car along with her pregnant
daughter and one year old daughter, among others. It all
stemmed from a dispute after waiting over an hour for food.

Speaker 3 (01:30:52):
Why did you wait that long?

Speaker 8 (01:30:54):
I think I've waited thirty minutes, but over an hour
is kind of aridict. Even the thirty minutes is ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (01:31:01):
Were there other people?

Speaker 8 (01:31:03):
I would imagine there were, But let's hear from miss Timmins.

it just to indicate that, yes, I have a weapon here,

Yeah, she's a caretaker when you know she gets her food.

The McDonald's employee was arrested and they said fired. According
to the company, a man wearing a prison halloween costume
got arrested. That would have been fun to see, probably
didn't have to change much of his clothes. He was
wearing an inmate costume for the holiday, and he was
found driving under the influence in the early hours of Halloween.
The Dolphins Miami Dolphins in fact ends up. They say

Another knife was pulled on a man for taking too
long in a grocery store bathroom where apparently pooping is
a pleasure for students hospitalized after taking edibles at Margate
Middle School. And last but not least, in this week,
in Florida, a woman was arrested after a brawl spilled
into a front yard Sheriff Grady Judd recounted the scene, saying, oh, brother,
she got rip roaring drunk, took off every bit of

(01:34:13):
her clothes. When we found her, she was in the
front yard of the house after biting and slapping around
her husband who dialed nine to one one, so we
tried to arrest her and she didn't like that at all.

Speaker 2 (01:34:22):

Speaker 1 (01:34:39):
Right now waiting for the vote.

Speaker 2 (01:34:42):
The vote coming soon that could end the government shutdown.
Will it, I don't know, but I'm watching so we'll
see when that vote comes up. If it's a they
get enough votes through enough Democrats say they want to
join with the Republicans to shut down or end the
shutdown of the government after thirty eight days.

Speaker 1 (01:35:01):
I'm watching it. We'll see if there's any updates. That's
on the web.

Speaker 2 (01:35:04):
And we got to talk about something that happened at
in Air Force Base that left seven people sick and
a suspicious package that they're looking very close at right now.

Speaker 1 (01:35:14):
That's on the way as well. It's all coming up
next in the news Chunkie over at thenewschunkie dot com.

(01:35:36):
I guess this whole crackdown on super speeders that's been
happening has been immensely successful so far. There's so many
of you out there who are just haul and ass
and they've been catching people like crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:35:50):
Oh my god, especially that first week.

Speaker 4 (01:35:52):
The news was immediately there, like two hours after this
came into play, we come Steven over here going on.

Speaker 2 (01:36:00):
They have caught hundreds of super speeders since they started
targeting people who were going really really fast, more than
fifty miles an hour or more over the speed limit.
And there seems to be no shortage of these folks
out there. I don't know why you guys are going
so fast, but you are. In Orange County alone. The

(01:36:23):
Orange County Sheriff's office in October arrested more than forty people.
That's the most of most of any month so far.
And there's a ton of these folks who have been
booked on charges of going one hundred miles an hour
or more when they were pulled over, and I don't
I don't know what's wrong with you, folks. I don't

(01:36:45):
know what you're in such a hurry, but I can
tell you that there are so many of you that
they continue to have the ability to pull you over
one after another. Somebody got pulled over going one hundred
and fifteen miles per hour and got seven citations. All right,
that I've One time when I got pulled over. Oh god,

(01:37:06):
I was young. I was a maybe very early twenties
at the time. One time when I got pulled over.

Speaker 1 (01:37:13):
I remember the officer coming up and he had like
four or five tickets for me, and it was like
speeding ticket, break light out, lack of insurance proofs.

Speaker 8 (01:37:25):
That happened to my friend on his birthday. I handed
him a stack of tickets and then said, happy birthday.

Speaker 1 (01:37:32):
Oh woh, dick man. That's it's rough.

Speaker 2 (01:37:36):
It's a tough time if you're stuck in that position.
But unfortunately a lot of people are getting in trouble
out there.

Speaker 1 (01:37:42):
We got too many people speeding. You shouldn't be doing
it speed. Oh god. I just want to.

Speaker 2 (01:37:49):
Make sure that everybody's safe out there. And when you're
going one hundred and fifteen miles an hour. It's just
that's dangerous for all people out.

Speaker 1 (01:37:56):
On the streets.

Speaker 3 (01:37:57):
God is it fun?

Speaker 1 (01:37:59):
Probably probably going one hundred and fifteen miles an hour.

Speaker 4 (01:38:03):
You're going seventy five. I feel like it's thrilling.

Speaker 1 (01:38:06):
I have I have fun at that speed. I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:38:09):
I don't need to go so fast over the speed limit.
I'm not this person, but there is a lot of
people who are. I see you guys all the time,
weaving in and out of traffic, cutting over here, cutting
over there, like you're some sort of fast and the
furious driver.

Speaker 1 (01:38:24):
It's weird.

Speaker 4 (01:38:25):
Favorite thing to do is someone's like tailgating me and
they're all, I mean, as close as you can. If
I were to hit my brakes, they would run into me.
But I can't go anywhere because there's someone in front
of me and I will not be tail getting them.
So I go a little bit to the right and
I go what I do, and I have them look
at the car in front of me, and two out

(01:38:45):
of fifteen times.

Speaker 3 (01:38:47):
That works and they back off.

Speaker 4 (01:38:49):
Little crazy word of advice to all the speeders.

Speaker 1 (01:38:52):
Out there, unless they're crazy this one case.

Speaker 3 (01:38:55):
Yeah, no, I'm asking for a.

Speaker 2 (01:38:57):
For a there's a non in significant amount of people
who are just legitimately crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:39:03):
Let's break check them right?

Speaker 4 (01:39:05):
Oh no, in Florida, aren't you still a fault if
they hit you?

Speaker 2 (01:39:12):
The bigger problem is if the person who you're getting
in one of these back and forth with is one
of the crazy people, then they're just there's people like
willing to kill you.

Speaker 3 (01:39:21):
I got to crossbows in my trunk.

Speaker 1 (01:39:23):
My god.

Speaker 2 (01:39:25):
Another clip going viral this week, A very old man.
I think this guy is over one hundred years old,
and he's on television Good Morning Britain. And they asked him,
They're like, considering everything happening in England these days, was
World War two worth it?

Speaker 3 (01:39:43):
Oh? And I guess they asked the man that's gonna.

Speaker 2 (01:39:46):
Die this dude. They asked him like, hey, was world
War two worth it? And I guess the guy said, no, Wow,
who are you hold on?

Speaker 1 (01:39:56):
Let's listen in here. He is.

Speaker 18 (01:39:57):
What does remembrance Sunday me for you? What is your message?

Speaker 1 (01:40:03):
My message is.

Speaker 7 (01:40:05):
Share in my mind joy of rose and rose of
white stubs of Oh the hundreds of my friends and
that guy their lives. What a contrary to die.

Speaker 1 (01:40:20):
No, I'm sorry, I don't know if we should be
interviewing him.

Speaker 3 (01:40:25):
I feel like he's about to die right there. And
that's where you ask him. Listening long, you're like, did
you think the whole World War was worth it?

Speaker 2 (01:40:35):
This is giving me vibes of the cracker barrel guy
that they hunted down when they did the cracker barrel changes.

Speaker 1 (01:40:41):
And he's like, I can't take it anymore. My day.

Speaker 3 (01:40:44):
We used to have separate seeding for the black people.

Speaker 1 (01:40:48):
This guy, he wasn't racist, not openly.

Speaker 2 (01:40:52):
That guy was so upset that he nearly had a
heart attack during an interview.

Speaker 3 (01:40:56):
This guy is barely getting a breath, and to finish
the sentence.

Speaker 2 (01:40:59):
He's all whenever they ask him a question, he's doing
that old man leaning, put your hand around your ear.

Speaker 1 (01:41:08):
Let's see what else?

Speaker 7 (01:41:08):
He says, the result that it is now, Oh well,
I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (01:41:14):
What do you mean by that?

Speaker 19 (01:41:16):
Though?

Speaker 1 (01:41:18):
What we fought for, we fought for, but they're free.

Speaker 7 (01:41:22):
We father even now it's downside worse what it was
when I'll fault for it.

Speaker 18 (01:41:31):
Oh, Alix, I'm sorry you feel like that, because I
want you to know that all the generations.

Speaker 4 (01:41:37):
It's the weirdest part of the biggest couch and you
can't screw it a little bit closer town Jah.

Speaker 2 (01:41:42):
The propensity of people, especially when you're on the news,
to talk to old people the same way you talk.

Speaker 1 (01:41:50):
To babies is hilarious to me.

Speaker 2 (01:41:53):
This is very funny, Like they will be like, oh,
I'm so sorry you feel.

Speaker 19 (01:41:58):
That way, and here's a lily like, okay, well we
got another question for you, big boy, and very much
like infantilizing the old man who's about to die out.

Speaker 18 (01:42:11):
Including me and my children, are so grateful for your
bravery and all that for service personnel. And it's our
job now, isn't it to make it the country that
you thought for. You absolutely will and we will do
we want to.

Well, they're trying to scoot him out of there.

Speaker 4 (01:42:31):
Coming up next, which hot pocket will kill you.

Speaker 2 (01:42:34):
They're trying to get rid of the old guy, like
you're really bringing us down here, Bro, what's happening?

Speaker 3 (01:42:39):
Do you think was gonna? Why are you asking about
the World War? Lily in slow motion in the background.

Speaker 2 (01:42:45):
I don't I don't know if this guy is I
don't know if anybody's mentioned this, but he sounds like
Adobe from Harry Dobby is a Dobby is not like
Dobby from Harry Potter.

I wanted to tell you.

Speaker 3 (01:44:42):
Just like what usually.

Speaker 4 (01:44:43):
I mean, maybe it's different over here in the US,
but they're like, what do you attribute to.

Speaker 3 (01:44:48):
Living so long? What did you think about the war
you fought so years ago?

Speaker 2 (01:44:54):
Arnatt says, unpack his concerns instead of laughing at him
for being passionate about his country. That's not the funny part.
The funny part is just all of the people reacting
to him and everything that's happening around this one hundred
year old guy on this broadcast. Yeah, are not, thank
you captain serious?

Speaker 1 (01:45:11):
All right?

Speaker 4 (01:45:12):

totally serious every single time?

Speaker 1 (01:45:17):
No, tist. It's obviously hilarious that this man fought in
World War two and now he's like, I don't know
if it was worth it. We've got all these erosions
of rights in the UK.

This is a perfect environment for a hundred year old

(01:46:02):
guy on.

Speaker 3 (01:46:03):
CD is not a perfect thing for the one hundred
year old guy.

Speaker 1 (01:46:06):
It's not a perfect present.

Speaker 2 (01:46:07):
No, Now, he said, the hundreds of my friends that

break and we're back with Jury Duty, and of course

See that we have some good ones this week, So
let's dive in. Let's see what we got going, because
that is coming up next on the News Junkie. In

(01:47:01):
just a moment here before we get to jury duty,
some emails rolling in tips at thenewsjunkie dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:47:07):
Michelle heard us talking about this weird.

Speaker 2 (01:47:09):
Thing where people said, oh, yeah, totally normal.

Speaker 1 (01:47:12):
You just you know, you got it.

Speaker 2 (01:47:13):
Next week, put a sock on the dashboard of your car,
and you can put a sock full of rice or
honey on the dashboard of your car and when the
weather gets cooler, then your window won't fog up as
much anymore. And I'm like, I've never heard of this
in my life. Is this the thing that just I
was left out of? And Michelle says New Hampshire checking in,

(01:47:34):
I have never ever heard of this, but the fugging
really does suck. So I'll let you know next week.
So Michelle is going to attempt this. I wouldn't recommend
the honeysock.

Speaker 8 (01:47:45):
Yeah, I don't understand why if you were going to
go down this road you would choose honey'd yeah, yeah,
a gan mess.

Speaker 2 (01:47:56):
I would, yeah, I would. I would think I've never
tried this, But so what I would think, think at least,
so we'll see. Let us know, report pack and tell
us if that weird thing actually works as we do this,
go ahead.

Speaker 1 (01:48:07):
What we're gonna say.

Speaker 8 (01:48:07):
I just I want to hear from the person who
is like gonna die on the hill, like no, no, no, honey,
it's got to be a sock full of honey. It
does the most job. You want to hear directly from
the honeysock person.

Speaker 2 (01:48:17):
Yes, all right, honey sounds but if you're out there,
I feel.

Speaker 3 (01:48:21):
Sore banging the sock before they're putting another dashboard.

Speaker 2 (01:48:24):
Honeysock person, Please email the show tips at the Newsjunkie
dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:48:28):
I look forward to your correspondence. Let's do jury duty.
Court is now in session, so put your phone down.

Speaker 12 (01:48:35):
And pay attention before we call the bailiff over to
whip your ass.

Speaker 1 (01:48:38):
You're no in jury duty with the News Junkie. Jury
Duty brought to you by the one the only modu
wit of the Wit law firm. Moses is joining us now,
is how he is with us today.

Speaker 2 (01:48:51):
And we got questions for you, Mo unfortunately for you,
but we got some good ones. I think after an accident,
I want you to make sure you're picking up the
phone and making the right decision. This is a smart
thing in my estimation. And after that accident, you call
eight hundred call me, simple as that eight hundred Calmo.
The process is started just like that eight hundred Calmo,

(01:49:13):
or just CALLMO dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:49:16):
All right, Mo, here's what we got for you.

Speaker 2 (01:49:18):
See, bring up the list of questions I have from
this week, and so what do we got to start
things up? I have a couple police officer related questions,
all right, And the first one was at the It
was in the parking lot of I think at Dillard's
where somebody was being chased on foot. Oh yeah, and

(01:49:38):
then another customer pulled up to offer assistance to the cop,
like like had him get in the passenger seat so
they could chase this person when when they inevitably got
into a vehicle and left in the vehicle. Now we
were asking, if we're helping out a police officer in
a pursuit, are there some laws that we're now like

(01:50:00):
allowed to break?

Speaker 8 (01:50:02):
Am I deputized at this point? If I if I
have now welcomed to the police officer into my passenger
seat and I am am helping with the chase.

Speaker 13 (01:50:12):
So if you're acting under an officer's direction and in
good faith, you generally receive some legal protections similar to
the officer.

Speaker 1 (01:50:21):
So it doesn't mean that you can just do whatever
you want or can.

Speaker 13 (01:50:24):
Make SnSe but I could run some red lights and
potentially you can potentially run some red lights. So basically
at that point you kind of step into the shoes
a little bit of the officer. Assuming again that you're
acting under the officer's direction.

Speaker 1 (01:50:36):
That's very important and it's in good faith.

Speaker 2 (01:50:39):
This might help out. Here's the actual moment that we're
talking about. The cop was chasing somebody who was shoplifting
out of the store and uh, it's in slide L
and then the cop pulls up and the an employee
from this store had a car running trying to stop them.

Speaker 7 (01:50:56):
Stop.

Speaker 1 (01:50:59):
They pull off the thieves.

Speaker 2 (01:51:03):
He's running through the parking lot. So now this is
just a regular woman and he says, follow them, following them,
go go go. So now you're kind of like you're
you're a copy away.

Speaker 1 (01:51:18):
Is she deputized?

Speaker 12 (01:51:20):
I don't.

Speaker 13 (01:51:20):
I don't know that they officially call it deputizing them,
but you're are acting under the officer's direction. So that
does give you some of the yeah, same authority to
some degree, and protections.

Speaker 1 (01:51:39):
In pursuit of this.

Speaker 2 (01:51:40):
What if you would have crashed your car, wouldn't that
be a weird one for your insurance?

Speaker 1 (01:51:44):
Yeah, but you're.

Speaker 13 (01:51:45):
Your regular insurance are probably still cover. That could be
a little weird, But I mean, you know, still there's
still an issue of excessive force or if you act
independently beyond what was requested, then you could fail still
face civil or criminaliability. But if you're following direct directions
and you're well to do it, then it's all good.

Speaker 8 (01:52:01):
I would probably act independently beyond what was requested if.

Speaker 2 (01:52:04):
You take it a little too seriously and go go
above and beyond.

Speaker 13 (01:52:08):
All Right, I snatch the CoP's gun, start chasing after him. Yeah, yeah, do.

Speaker 8 (01:52:13):
That maneuver where you like hit them in the in
the back right and it spins them out, and like, yeah,
I did it.

Speaker 1 (01:52:20):
Is the term deputized?

Speaker 8 (01:52:22):
Is that just something that's in the movies, or is
there really a situation where a cop can be like,
I'm deputizing you. Even saying it out loud sounds stupid.
So I think I know the answer. But is it real.

Speaker 13 (01:52:33):
I don't know, to be honest with you. Let's see,
I'm not sure if it actually appears anywhere. I mean
it's a general term that people use. Obviously, you can
deputize somebody or you're giving them the authority to act
as a deputy.

Speaker 1 (01:52:43):
So I would say it's real.

Speaker 2 (01:52:45):
I always see it in a movie where it's a
small town and the police are overwhelmed and they need
some help and they're like, I'm deputizing you, and they
give them like a little badge and then you know,
immediately this person becomes a cop or something. So if
that's true, then we got something on our hands here.

Speaker 1 (01:53:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:53:01):
I mean, typically, like you know, with a sheriff apoint
someone to act as a deputy, they're deputizing them. So
whether that's it's typically not done for civilians, but you
can make somebody a deputy.

Speaker 2 (01:53:11):
Right, Sea Lane, there's hope, there's hope. I almost just
cursed in excitement. What else we got on the list?

Speaker 1 (01:53:21):
Sea Lane?

Speaker 8 (01:53:22):
We had a police officer that was in pursuit in
the vehicle, lights on, and they were going around some
traffic and they ended up just like hugely plowing into
a guy on a skateboard did not survive the accident,
and they talk about that. They said they weren't going
excessively fast, but it seemed like that was incorrect. Is

(01:53:47):
there a way to get their speed at the time
of the crash?

Speaker 1 (01:53:51):
Is there video or anything like that? Yeah, yeah, there's
dash cam video. Yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:53:55):
So there's a number of different ways to estimate speed
based on video, based on the black box and the vehicle.

Speaker 1 (01:54:00):
You can tell as long as I was preserved, you know.

Speaker 13 (01:54:03):
So there are ways you have to hire experts usually
to make it admissible in court, but you can can
get speed determined that way.

Speaker 1 (01:54:10):
So this is exactly what Celan had said. Celan had said,
you can measure the distance between like the stuff on
the road, and then the strike can yeah, and then
an expert could tell you how fast they were going.
They can give you a good estimate. Yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:54:22):
We have a caselip right now where we're doing that
where a driver was speeding and hit a pedestrian, and
you can tell basically based on the other vehicles. It's
a dash cam as well, based on the other vehicles
and this vehicle and how far they traveled and how
long it took them to travel that distance the approximate
speed that they were going.

Speaker 1 (01:54:41):
Wow, that's crazy. All right, very very interesting quick break here,
We're going to come back. We have more questions for you, Moses,
so hang tight on that front. Folks. You can squeeze
some in here.

Speaker 2 (01:54:51):
If you'd like to ask Moses to win anything, tips
at the news Junkie dot com. Tips at the newsjunkie
dot com, or you can record a dispatch. I'll play
it for him next to record yours at the newsjunkie
dot Com. All right, we got Antonio Brown to get into.
We got this the thing at Joint Bass Andrews that
was a suspicious package that made seven people sick. We're
watching what's happening with the potential vote that could unstick

(01:55:15):
the government and end the government shutdown. All of that
and so much more as we get into the Power Hour,
the final hour of the show. It's coming up next
in the News junk Kie. You can subscribe to podcasts

(01:55:41):
and all of that stuff at the Newsjunkie dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:55:44):
We got our friend Motive It of the DeWit Law
Firm with us here today. That means we have all
kinds of weird questions for him.

Speaker 2 (01:55:50):
Also, we're watching to see if they vote to end
the government shut down, if that is something that they're
going to end today, if they can have a by
partisan agreement to stop all of this stuff and get
funding back in place for the people who are out
there working, who are government workers. And the USA Today
article I see says, maybe there's a chance that this

(01:56:10):
ends before too long. One of the elected officials, Thun
John Thune, says the shutdown won't likely go into Thanksgiving,
but will it end today is the big question. This
from the USA Today says, in a sign of tensions
thawing between Republicans and Democrats, GOP leaders in Congress teed
up a vote on advancing legislation to potentially end the

(01:56:33):
record breaking government shutdown. The revised bill would keep the
federal government's lights on past Thanksgiving. It would also include
a full year funding for some but not all agencies. Still,
it's not clear whether more moderate Senate Democrats plan to
support the proposal. Even as flight cuts mount because of
the FAA, food insecurity grows, that's snap benefit stuff, and

(01:56:55):
hundreds of thousands of workers were made without pay on
day thirty eight.

Speaker 1 (01:56:57):
Of the crisis.

Speaker 2 (01:56:58):
For weeks Democrats have refused to vote to reopen the
government without major investments in reducing health care costs. In
the wake of sweeping election wins Tuesday, Progressives have urged
more moderate flanks of their party to hold firm. So
I guess there was like a big lunch and stuff,
and they were suggesting these Democrats that they still were
gonna hold firm on keeping the government shut down unless

(01:57:20):
they got these changes they want to healthcare. And there
was at least some murmurs that there was maybe a
possible deal, but there will be a vote and we'll
take a look at that and see what's going on
momentarily on the show. All right, back to our questions
with mo Sea Lane, what else do we have on
the list there this week?

Speaker 8 (01:57:38):
We talked about in this week in Florida, there was
this teacher who had some work troubles going on already,
but he finally resigned after this arrest they made of him.
And weirdly enough, the arrest was for swimming while intoxicated,
which is like something that I think the judge by

(01:58:00):
your face, like doesn't everybody do that at some point?
I mean, I get it that it's at the beach
but is that a common law for beaches, And like,
have you ever had to defend somebody for that?

Speaker 1 (01:58:11):
I've never heard of it, to be honest with you.

Speaker 8 (01:58:13):
Yeah, it's a new sumerna thing apparently, and right now
if you if you google it, you'll find like this
this Deltona school principle resigning about it. But then there's
a couple other like stories, like a new Submerena beach
Man told deputies he had drunk one beer was arrested
after allegedly drifting in the water naked. The naked thing,
you know, kind of kind of overshoots the swimming while intoxicated,

(01:58:36):
but just the idea of like an s ui when
you're not hurting anybody else.

Speaker 13 (01:58:42):
I mean, it sounds like you would have to fall
under like a disorderly intoxication type thing where you're swimming
drunk and possibly endangering others and just kind of being
out of control while drunk. He is solely just swimming
while drunk. I don't believe it is a crime. Obviously,
operating a boat boat while under the influence, that's a crime, right,
you know, Causing a disturbed in the public area's disorderly conduct.
So there's other crimes that could be incorporated around that.

Speaker 8 (01:59:04):
Right, And they said they told this guy's car, which
could imply that he may have tried to move it
at some point later, like he may have had plans to,
but he didn't do that yet.

Speaker 1 (01:59:15):
He was just drunk at a beach.

Speaker 13 (01:59:17):
He must hear him disorderly or kind of out of
control or something there. They may be calling it that,
but I think really it's probably a disorderly intox or
disorderly conduct, something all along those lines.

Speaker 2 (01:59:27):
Well, another question on this front from Clay coming in
to tips at the news Junkie dot com and says,
I have a mo question. I remember hearing stories about
a drunk cowboy being arrested and then let go from
a duy will riding a horse. And he said, since
the horse knew how to get home without the cowboys steering,
that it was fine.

Speaker 1 (01:59:44):
Whenever you hear these.

Speaker 2 (01:59:45):
Stories speaking of what we're talking about now, what kind
of things can you get a DUI on?

Speaker 1 (01:59:50):
And I would throw this Tomo.

Speaker 2 (01:59:53):
Is that maybe different by a state like each state's
can have their own laws there, I would guess yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:59:58):
I mean, basically, if I remember directly, you can get
a dui basically anything of Florida that's not attached to rails.

Speaker 1 (02:00:04):
So buy yourself a train to go, but everything else
you can basically get a dui.

Speaker 2 (02:00:10):
Wait, you can't operate a train drunk. I'm just telling
you what the statue says. But che accepted, not a full.

Speaker 4 (02:00:16):
Blown train, but we have a slow moving one to
two carts.

Speaker 13 (02:00:21):
Now, there may be a different statute specifically for trains.
I haven't looked into the train the train statue, but
under the regular dui statue, no trains, okay, But any
animal typically I mean whether it would actually stick or not.
It's a different story. But the way the statute is written,
technically you could potentially get a dui on a horse.

Speaker 8 (02:00:40):
So I always have this question because we used to
We used to see a person downtown very often in
the wee hours of the night who would be out
gallivanting around, hitting some bars, but was confined to a
motorized wheelchair. If you find yourself in that situation where
you have like a physical disability and you have to

(02:01:01):
be in a wheelchair, it seems like that's not connected
to a rail, But are you would you just not
allowed to drink at all? If you're in a wheelchair
like that.

Speaker 13 (02:01:12):
So I mean the way the statue is written, I
can just, you know, specifically tell you what the statue says.
Is every device in upon or by which any person
or property is or maybe transported or drawn upon a
highway that's not attached to rails.

Speaker 1 (02:01:27):
It's basically what it says. I'm not gonna read the
whole thing. So theoretically, if.

Speaker 13 (02:01:32):
You can get that motorize scooter on a highway or
a road, you could potentially get a duo.

Speaker 4 (02:01:37):
At that moment, I would say that guy is drunk
because he's on the flour.

Speaker 3 (02:01:40):
That makes sense.

Speaker 1 (02:01:41):
Yes, well, mo, I have bad news.

Speaker 2 (02:01:43):
The questions aren't going to get more normal from here
because I had a weird one for you. I saw
that there was a bust. This was in I think Michigan,
but I'm not sure where this happened. But this this
group started up their own club and they called it
the Hillbilly Boxing Club, and they got arrested for having

(02:02:07):
these fights. Now, they were doing some stuff that wasn't
so good. They had people out of the age of
eighteen who were fighting each other, and they were allowing
some bets on things but they said, even with that
all aside, if the place just would have had fights,
but without like licensing and stuff, having your own fight
club is technically illegal. Is this something that you know

(02:02:29):
to be true? Or where are we out on fight clubs?

Speaker 13 (02:02:32):
Mostly well, again, I haven't looked into the fight club
laws specifically for Florida, but typically with fight clubs they
have to have some sort of sanctioning and things like that.
I'd have to look at the statute, but you know, probably.

Speaker 3 (02:02:45):
It'd be as simple as like a waiver of one signs.

Speaker 13 (02:02:47):
I mean, you want to have a waiver. I mean,
do you know what they were actually charged with though,
was that they're an actual It.

Speaker 2 (02:02:52):
Was a couple of things, because one of them was
some of the people were under eighteen and they were
participating in these fights and they suffered injuries and stuff.
But then they said to do this legally, says Detectives
identified the area in which the fights were occurring. They said,
they found a metal cage in the middle of a field.
That's where the hill billy boxing fights were going down, right,

(02:03:14):
they said.

Speaker 1 (02:03:15):
Theople they just ordered on Amazon.

Speaker 2 (02:03:18):
They said, going to the cage, these two guys Robertson
Foster were promoting the boxing matches, and to promote the
boxing matches legally you have to have a license from
in this case, the Indiana Gaming Commission. So like, maybe
even just like the act of promoting a fight requires
that you have like a legal entity to the fight

(02:03:43):
club that you have.

Speaker 1 (02:03:44):
Very weird. I had not heard of this before, but.

Speaker 13 (02:03:46):
I think that's actually true. In most states. It has
to be a sanctioned fight. You can't just have kind
of an illegal fight in your backyard.

Speaker 2 (02:03:54):
If we had an event, people thought at the event
that would technically be like.

Speaker 13 (02:03:59):
At the Florida Boxing Commission of volt or something unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (02:04:03):
Those are the only people we haven't fought with yet.
So yeah, free Florida.

Speaker 3 (02:04:07):
Yeah right, Yeah to the club person, then well yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:04:12):
There's only one way to find out is to do
this and really put it to the test.

Speaker 1 (02:04:16):
Anything else on the list, Sea Land, how was it?
I think we covered it all? Hill billy boxing.

Speaker 2 (02:04:20):
All right, let's let's take a look at this real quick.
If you don't mind, this guy is really shaking things
up in the world of college basketball.

Speaker 1 (02:04:29):
Oliver Roue is his name. He's all over the place,
right now.

Speaker 2 (02:04:33):
He is seven feet nine inches tall, the tallest player
in college basketball.

Speaker 1 (02:04:40):
Hosty for you.

Speaker 8 (02:04:42):
He's just taking the shirt on and he's getting set
for you.

Speaker 1 (02:04:48):
But break the record officially.

Speaker 2 (02:04:51):
These are other like massive basketball players, and he just
towers over these people.

Speaker 4 (02:04:57):
He doesn't have like that super tall guy or at
least not yet or it's hard to walk.

Speaker 2 (02:05:03):
No, he seems like just a really really tall individual
who also has like some maybe athleticism to him.

Speaker 1 (02:05:10):
But he's a massive seven nine Yeah, it's easy enough.
I guess we want Alie.

Speaker 2 (02:05:16):
They said they were chanting for him inside the arena,
and the moment he got out there, he made history
for being the tallest teenager, the tallest player to ever
play in college basketball.

Speaker 1 (02:05:29):
I'm not just making history by just walking in the room.
I know.

Speaker 2 (02:05:33):
Yeah, he's two inches taller than former NBA Giants Minute
Bowl and another guy who I'm not going to be
able to pronounce his name, three inches taller than Yao Ming,
Taco Fall and Sean Browley Bradley. So I guess he's
one of the tallest basketball players of all time. Seven
feet nine inches tall is just incredible.

Speaker 8 (02:05:56):
I had a weird like stoner thought a couple of
weeks ago when we were doing some some painting at
the house weed and uh no, no it wasn't smoking weed.
But I had this thought because I was I was
on a ladder and I was like, from up here,
I see a lot of mistakes have been made. You
think tall people like that just walk around seeing bad

(02:06:17):
paint jobs like all the time.

Speaker 2 (02:06:21):
Come on, come on, serious, come on, I.

Speaker 1 (02:06:27):
Think spots all the time. Let's let's lock down an
interview with him, and we came on this shot. Come seriously,
I'm seriously right now, people are starting industry.

Speaker 14 (02:06:39):
Yeah, I mean you you clear, all right?

Speaker 2 (02:06:45):
I got one more weird thing for you.

Speaker 1 (02:06:50):
Oh, somebody got in trouble.

Speaker 2 (02:06:51):
We got a lot of listeners over in Dallas, Texas,
all right, And somebody got in trouble because they were
at the latest Dallas game at at and T Stadium.
They had a Dallas Cowboys jersey on, and they ran
into the end zone of the football field and spread
their deceased cousins ashes during the game. It's ran out

(02:07:14):
there through the ashes on the field at this Cowboys
stadium and then whole ass away from there as fast
as they could.

Speaker 1 (02:07:25):
Again, very weird law.

Speaker 2 (02:07:28):
But spreading ashes in places where you're not permitted to
do that, how does that go?

Speaker 1 (02:07:33):
You must be breaking some sort of crime, I would fink, right.

Speaker 13 (02:07:37):
So, I mean you have a criminal trespass potentially just
by going on the field like that.

Speaker 1 (02:07:42):
It is private property. Of course, then.

Speaker 13 (02:07:46):
There are laws about the way you are allowed to
treat human remains, so it could possibly be in violation
of that. There's some health coe laws that could potentially violate.
So you know, typically there's some stuff that they could
throw at you if they want to. Now, of course,
a lot of times it's kind of accepted to put
ashes in certain places. Yeah, I've heard this is a

(02:08:06):
problem at Disney World.

Speaker 1 (02:08:07):
Oh yeah, I've heard that.

Speaker 2 (02:08:10):
Yeah, yeah, Yeah, to be fair, he only put a
little bit.

Speaker 1 (02:08:14):
He's just sprinkled a little bit of the ashes.

Speaker 3 (02:08:19):
That you just don't make a video about it.

Speaker 1 (02:08:21):
Yeah, they filmed it and he's crying. He's upset. He
is crying about his his deceased cousin who And they
posted this on line where he pushed that ashes through
the end zone laces out.

Speaker 2 (02:08:41):
All right, we're gonna take a quick break from these
questions and we'll come back we've got other things to
talk about, and unfortunately for Moses, we'll head in some
other directions here, and we also have to talk to you.

Speaker 1 (02:08:50):
I know, bus Decker has something he wanted you to
to get into.

Speaker 2 (02:08:52):
We'll talk about that when we come back, and we'll
get everything sort of wrapped up for the week here.

Speaker 1 (02:08:57):
It's been a fun one. We'll see where it goes next.

Speaker 2 (02:09:00):
That's coming up next in the news junk Kie, record
your dispatch at the news junkie dot com right now.

(02:09:21):
This is maybe the dumbest thing of the week, literally
the dumbest thing of the week, and it is that
there has been a crush on Starbucks locations because a
bunch of people, mostly younger women, are so desperate to
get these stupid little bear things, these little big bear glasses.

Speaker 3 (02:09:44):
Jeff's wedding, Oh my.

Speaker 2 (02:09:46):
God, it's a Starbucks Teddy Bear cup, and it's causing
fights all across the country. People are fighting over these
things to get access to them. They have like such
a limited amount that it's like a it looks like
a little like honey teddy bear kind of got.

Speaker 3 (02:10:03):
She mix it up, then it becomes the teddy Bear.
I see.

Speaker 2 (02:10:06):
It's plastic. It's not even like the most amazing thing.
But they're fighting at all these Starbucks locations, and Starbucks
has apologized.

Speaker 1 (02:10:14):
I guess as a result.

Speaker 3 (02:10:16):
Of this sitting deja vu?

Speaker 4 (02:10:17):
Was it not this time last year that there was
another Starbucks cup that came out that there were fights
over there.

Speaker 1 (02:10:23):
Was there was a Stanley crossover that they had it
like Target.

Speaker 3 (02:10:28):
Or something, that's exactly it.

Speaker 2 (02:10:29):
And that one was a big deal too, and people
went out there. And some of these people are waking
up at like one o'clock in the morning going to
the Starbucks location and sitting there and waiting until the
door's open. And and then only the first two people
got one of these stupid Starbucks Bear cups and they
took them all.

Speaker 1 (02:10:48):
That was just they have limited quantities.

Speaker 2 (02:10:50):
Starbucks releases an apology after fights and arguments break out
at various locations over their new glass Oh it's not
it's not plastic, I guess glass. Starbucks Bear easta cup?
How do Starbucks fans are fuming and fighting over the
company's new bear cup. One fight broke out in Houston
and even made local news. The excitement for our merch

(02:11:11):
exceeded even our biggest expectations. They said, despite shipping more
Bear east to cups to coffee houses than almost any
other merchandise item, this is still selling out fast. We
understand many customers. We're excited about the Bear easta cup
and the.

Speaker 1 (02:11:27):
Disappointment.

Speaker 3 (02:11:29):
I mean, they have a glass Barry can drink out of.

Speaker 2 (02:11:34):
Hang on, let me see if I can find is
the story about these people fighting over the stupid bar
easta in Texas.

Speaker 13 (02:11:41):
Just on break I saw somebody posts that they would
never going to Starbucks again because of this. I swear, yeah,
And I was like, I don't know what this is,
but they were all upset.

Speaker 1 (02:11:49):
Oh god, people are weird. I don't know what to
do with it, but.

Speaker 3 (02:11:55):
They are wed.

Speaker 4 (02:11:55):
And how do Starbucks not know this by now? They
din't get enough of the product so or.

Speaker 3 (02:12:02):
They want this?

Speaker 1 (02:12:02):
No Starbucks wants this.

Speaker 3 (02:12:05):
Even with the apology.

Speaker 1 (02:12:07):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:12:08):
Yeah, because Starbucks probably loves their customers so excited about
getting something like this and they're going to fight over it.
But hold on, let's see what they said. Here's NBC
News talking about this.

Speaker 1 (02:12:18):
Got it.

Speaker 3 (02:12:19):
I got the Barryston mods.

Speaker 12 (02:12:20):
The holiday season kicking off with a viral create after
Starbucks unveiled this twenty ounce glass Barista cup as part
of their holiday line just hours before it was set
to hit store shelves, and it sparked a festive frenzy.

Speaker 1 (02:12:37):
One of them are mine. I will fight you for it.

Speaker 12 (02:12:41):
Videos showed customers camping out in order to get their
hands on me. I have no chats, including this TikTok
user who said several people were already online at nine
pm the night before.

Speaker 1 (02:12:52):
Come on, yeah, not even the night before nine pm.

Speaker 2 (02:12:58):
You're waiting until the next day that Istarbucks opens so
that you can get a glass Starbucks cup in the
shape of a bear.

Speaker 1 (02:13:06):
Reevaluate your life. Reevaluate your life.

Speaker 4 (02:13:09):
It's crazy when you can sip out of the top
of a glass bear's head.

Speaker 1 (02:13:14):
I'm with you, guys.

Speaker 2 (02:13:15):
It is kind of cute, but it is so out
to wait like twelve hours in line for the place
to open.

Speaker 1 (02:13:24):
That's crazy to me. Life.

Speaker 2 (02:13:27):
Yeah, I mean, I'm not here to stop you, Moses
if you want to.

Speaker 1 (02:13:31):
You know, tonight they're selling for up to eight hundred,
one thousand dollars on eBay. Yeah no.

Speaker 2 (02:13:37):
It did they say, my god, hold on, did they say,
what the cups cost if you get them from Starbucks.
There's a similar one, very similar one on Amazon and
it's twenty two dollars.

Speaker 1 (02:13:49):
Now it's not going to show up till the end
of the month.

Speaker 8 (02:13:51):
I think they're getting some they're getting some sales here,
but uh Sabrina.

Speaker 2 (02:13:57):
Just for the record, they do have bids on them.
This one's two hundred and eighty five dollars with forty
five bids and it ends in nine days. For stupid
berries to cup. All right, folks, it's a weird world
out there.

Speaker 4 (02:14:09):
People don't have snap benefits to get food on the table,
and others are paying three hundred bucks for cups.

Speaker 1 (02:14:16):
You know, it's better than a Barries to Cup news
junk launching dropping next week.

Speaker 1 (02:16:26):
Yeah, make them make the most out of this whole thing.

Speaker 2 (02:16:29):
Christine emails the show tips at the news Junkie dot com.
We talked about streaming services the other day. There's so
many of them. They're getting more and more and more
and more and more expensive. Moses, how many streaming services
are you subscribed to.

Speaker 1 (02:16:43):
At the moment that you could think of? Absolutely, no idea.
He's got to be it's got to be five or more.

Speaker 13 (02:16:48):
I mean, we definitely have Netflix, Prime, Disney Gloss, which
I think includes Hulu. I think there's like a PBS
Kids in there. I think we got a Peacock HBO,
HBO see at all.

Speaker 1 (02:17:03):
We're at eight right now, so think it stacks it
stacks up.

Speaker 2 (02:17:07):
There's a lot of them, and Christine wanted to talk
about this, and I said, I think all of this
and the increase in prices is going to, for the
first time at a long time, drive more people back
to pirting. Christine says, I just wanted to add a
little to the cost of streaming conversation. I have Spectrum
cable and Internet. It's part of my HOA fees, meaning
I don't pay anything for my Spectrum services. I live

(02:17:28):
in a condos, so the ha is required, and for
being a condo it's less than you might expect. With
my Spectrum service, I have access to the following streaming
services at no additional cause Disney plus, Hulu, AMC plus, Peacock, HBO, Max,
Paramount plus, espnulimited Fox and.

Speaker 1 (02:17:45):
The Tennis Channel and just in case why not.

Speaker 2 (02:17:48):
I used to pay for a couple of streaming services
to get the no adversion, but with the increasing costs,
I just got rid of that. I could get it
for AD free, or I could get it for free.
Hold on paying for any streaming when most of what
I watched was on a service I could get free
no longer made sense. I love the show, says Christine.
That's a good deal if you can get it. But

(02:18:08):
a lot of other people are just getting them piece
by piece. This service here, that service there. And then
you get the email saying prices are going up even more.
Prices have never been higher.

Speaker 1 (02:18:18):
But what's that? Got it wrong?

Speaker 2 (02:18:21):
But mister butlerker, Yes, I'll never remember. Don't worry if
you're not familiar. It makes sense to three people. Antonio
Brown is in big trouble.

Speaker 1 (02:18:30):
Moses.

Speaker 2 (02:18:31):
This is not great for Antonio Brown. And I think
he has forgotten his previous strategy.

Speaker 1 (02:18:36):
Was he not the one that just waited it out?
He waited it out.

Speaker 2 (02:18:39):
Yeah, the cops surrounded Antonio Brown's house and he just
waited it out, and eventually the cops gave up and
went away. But now the Miami Police Department has filed
a warrant for Antonio Brown's arrest, and they accused him
of shooting a man after a fight after an Influencer
boxing event in Miami. According to the rest warrant, Miami

(02:19:03):
police detectives later obtained footage that appears to show Antonio
Brown punching another man, sparking a fight, and the footage
later shows Antonio Brown appearing to take the gun off
of a security officer and running toward the man that
he punched. According to the warrant, cell phone video captures
two gunshots as he approaches the victim and includes the

(02:19:23):
victim ducking. He went to Dubai to flee all of this,
and then they brought him back. They extradited him back
to the United States of America to face these charges
in Miami. If you are involved in a situation like
that MO, and there's a warrant and you, like you know,
maybe before the warrants issued, you leave the country. If

(02:19:46):
you don't come back to face that he was over
in Dubai, will you get additional charges? Would it be
considered like fleeing if you don't come back.

Speaker 13 (02:19:53):
I don't think there's typically additional charges now, obviously depending
if they'll extra eight or not. As you know, determinate
depends on the Hey convention of whether it's an extradition country.
But I can't recall there being any additional charges for
fleeing because it's not like you were in prison and
you escape. There's just a warrant out for your arrest
and you've left the country essentially, but that can be

(02:20:14):
used at trial to show that you have a mindset
of guilt that basically you fled because you are guilty,
and so we do see that a lot.

Speaker 4 (02:20:23):
Huh, So plan the vacation before the crime and then happen.

Speaker 1 (02:20:28):
I cannot help you plot crimes on air. I'm sorry. Yeah,
that's a bad idea. What about Yeah? Or in general?

Speaker 2 (02:20:36):
Real quick, some news for Sabrina and Ceiling, both of them.

Speaker 1 (02:20:41):
I hate to tell you this.

Speaker 2 (02:20:42):
Oh, something is problematic that you have in your households,
both of you right now.

Speaker 1 (02:20:49):
Well, I know she doesn't have a child. It's not
a child, it's not cat litter. Nope, it's something that
you both have in your house.

Speaker 3 (02:20:56):
You don't.

Speaker 1 (02:20:57):
I don't have it in my household. The only clue
that I'm going to give you is I don't think
either of you use it very much. That's what I
have for.

Speaker 2 (02:21:09):
You both have it in your households, and you you've you've.

Speaker 1 (02:21:13):
Made this swing.

Speaker 3 (02:21:16):
I use mine all the time. It's not the sex swinging.

Speaker 1 (02:21:20):
You've both made.

Speaker 2 (02:21:21):
Comments about how you have this, but you haven't been
using yet.

Speaker 3 (02:21:25):
Peloton. The peloton I was a next month for sure,
going to do it.

Speaker 1 (02:21:30):
I got bad news though. They've recalled eight hundred and
seventy eight thousand Peloton bikes. Geez, these and this includes
both of yours.

Speaker 2 (02:21:39):
I believe any of them that were purchased twenty twenty
through twenty twenty five. Okay, they are now recalled these
Peloton bikes now because the seat posts can break during use,
and people were riding them, the seat posts would break,
they would not notice, and they would sit down on
the broken metaw remains that were underneath where the seat

(02:22:02):
once was. As you can imagine, there are parts of
your body that that might recavoca.

Speaker 3 (02:22:08):
Here's in an audio clip of it.

Speaker 1 (02:22:11):
Not good.

Speaker 2 (02:22:12):
Yeah, overall painful is what you're looking at there. These
Peloton bikes have now been recalled, almost a.

Speaker 1 (02:22:20):
Million of them. I'm not giving anybody who has one
of these right now because of the recall will get
a one thousand dollars check from the Peloton company.

Speaker 3 (02:22:31):
And how much the new bikes cost.

Speaker 2 (02:22:33):
To make things right, they're cutting checks to everybody who
has these in their possession right now. This sets wait, seriously, No,
I made that part of fortunately for you.

Speaker 3 (02:22:43):
What you're supposed to do.

Speaker 2 (02:22:44):
You do have these, you might be involved in a
class action lawsuit. You might be involved in a class
action since you guys both have one, but you're not
getting a grand free just yet.

Speaker 1 (02:22:53):
You got to wait a little bit longer. You're bad.
When we come back, we'll get to this final dispatches,
stories that didn't make the cut, and today learned to
wrap everything up for a Friday in the whole week,
everybody that is coming up next on the News Junkie.

Speaker 2 (02:23:25):
Joe Big thanks to chilongos over on the Secret Shows
side of things. Thank you for being the latest Secret
Show subscriber. A new Secret Show drops in just a
matter of hours here on the show, as it does
on every single Friday. You can get a subscribe, get
all caught up, figure out what Secret Shows is, and
unlock it over at thenewsjunkie dot com. Right now, all right,

(02:23:48):
let's see what we have on the way out of here.
Let's get into our Oh wait, wait, before we do
final dispatches, I want to go back to the airport
because I guess more people are freaking out at the
airport over some of these cancelations.

Speaker 1 (02:24:02):
Moses, I hope you're not flying anywhere this week. Funny thing,
I have a flight at eight o'clock to night.

Speaker 8 (02:24:07):
Oh wait, wait, from an airport or are you flying
no from MCO really and.

Speaker 1 (02:24:14):
That airport is affected by this? Yeah, here, Orlando's airport,
Miami's airport. Most major airports in the country have cutbacks
and stuff that are going on.

Speaker 2 (02:24:25):
And I guess some people are starting to melt down.
Let's go to Newark with CNN and see what's happening.

Speaker 11 (02:24:30):
Right here, hearing Sarah from passengers this morning who are
talking about this headache that they're now dealing with in
terms of trying to get from point A to point B.

Speaker 1 (02:24:37):
We look at the travel board here.

Speaker 11 (02:24:38):
It's really kind of deceiving because you look all these
flights here taking off on time. But that's really not
telling the whole story of what's been happening. It's the
whole story, as you say, the FAA canceling flights at
forty of the busiest airports all across the country.

Speaker 2 (02:24:53):
All right, so a lot of flights canceled at these airports.
But when he showed the board of departures, everything looked fine.
There in Newark, it looked like most of the stuff
was actually taken off canceled.

Speaker 3 (02:25:04):
Like last minute, like once you're at the gate.

Speaker 2 (02:25:06):
Well, maybe it's just because it's such a small percentage,
you know, ten percent, it's not really noticeable if you
just look at that giant wall of flights. But in
some places I guess it's worse than others. It goes
to somebody. I think here was mad.

Speaker 11 (02:25:19):
So that includes all of the New York City airports,
obviously including Newerk places like Miami, Chicago, Memphis, Los Angeles.
In addition to that, we've already heard from some of
the airline carriers.

Speaker 1 (02:25:30):
Here are some of their numbers.

Speaker 11 (02:25:32):
Delta canceling one hundred and seventy flights, United.

Speaker 1 (02:25:35):
Two, who are you flying? What are you look? Blue?
Jet Blue? Come on, no Jet Blue please.

Speaker 11 (02:25:41):
No Jet blurid American two hundred and twenty. Southwest canceling
one hundred flights. Now, as I said, we've passengers this morning,
I want you to listen to this.

Speaker 6 (02:25:51):
One person that we spoke to.

Speaker 11 (02:25:53):
She talked about the nightmare she dealt with last night
and then again this morning.

Speaker 1 (02:25:57):
Here we go, let's go to this lady.

Speaker 10 (02:26:00):
In the middle of the night, Air Canada just canceled
my trip. They rebooked me, but I woke up to
get to Newark, New Jersey, and I'm in an uber.
As soon as I step into the uber, ice pull
up the new itinerary. You're not anticipating to be rebooked
all the way at jfk oh no earlier flight I

(02:26:20):
was on here. Oh, I'm branking a car. I have
to be back in Utah by Tuesday. And from what
I hear with the counters, the airline counters and TSA,
they literally said to me, if I were you, I
wouldn't travel over the next three days.

Speaker 13 (02:26:35):
Oh, no trip most it should be fun.

Speaker 1 (02:26:40):
Well, we don't know that she's right. I mean she
is at the airport. She is kind of going through
it at the moment, but.

Speaker 4 (02:26:49):
Being in the uber, it's like, no, your flight's still
happening in our early different airport.

Speaker 1 (02:26:53):
Good luck. That sucks.

Speaker 2 (02:26:54):
A quick update on yesterday, I remember the person that
fainted at the White House. Yes, now there's saying A
White House reporter with the Washington Post says the man
who fainted at the White House was not a pharmaceutical executive,
but was an Eli Lilly patient who had been invited
to the White House based on his experience taking a
GLP one drug.

Speaker 1 (02:27:13):
Oh so awkward. They were going to talk to him
and be like, aren't these really great? Isn't it really successful?

Speaker 8 (02:27:21):
And the guys like that Actually makes a lot more
sense though, because a lot of the people that you
see on TV at the White House are used to
being in situations like that and probably not as nervous,
whereas this guy is just some schmo who takes zep bound.

Speaker 1 (02:27:36):
Yeah, but they're like, I'm taking you to meet President Trump.

Speaker 3 (02:27:39):
Isn't no lost recently?

Speaker 2 (02:27:42):
You know, he completely and totally passed out at the
White House. We also have learned the people on the
UPS flight twenty nine to seventy six that crashed have
their names have been released. The Captain Richard Whartenberg, with
Captain Dana Diamond and First Officer Lee Truett. Where the
three people who are on that flight twenty nine seventy
six UPS flight that exploded.

Speaker 1 (02:28:04):
I don't know if you saw some of the video
that moment. It was just crazy, insane, like the amount
of I guess it was because it was full of
fuel headed to Hawaii. It was just stunning to watch.
And that's gonna have to be it for the day.
Let's get the hell out of here, let's do today.
I learned, uh, the.

Speaker 6 (02:28:22):
Following information may make you feel smarter, but will not
actually increase.

Speaker 1 (02:28:25):
Your IQ, So don't get cocky. Now it's done, or
what we call today.

Speaker 2 (02:28:32):
Everybody gets your honey socks ready, have them on the dash.

Speaker 1 (02:28:38):
Yeah, get that up there and just.

Speaker 2 (02:28:40):
Goop it on the dashboard so that you don't get any.

Speaker 1 (02:28:43):
Frost up there. Did not hear from anybody who goes
the honeysock route. No, no pro honeysock people, not at
all during the show unbelievable. Today learned this band right here,
see Jamady, that's right, Pearl Jam. The song titled Elderly
Woman behind the Counter in a Small Town was given
an absurdly long name because Pearl Jam felt too many

(02:29:05):
of their songs had one word. They have a lot
of short titled songs.

Speaker 2 (02:29:10):
Jeremy Black even Flow, so those the ones I could
think of offhand. Today learn the La Lax Airport allows
pilots and employees to live on airport property. They rent
them a parking space for their personal RVs for just
sixty dollars per month, which would be a sweet little

(02:29:31):
gig if you could get it. You need to work
right there at the airport.

Speaker 1 (02:29:34):
Yeah, but isn't there hookups for water and says it's
a very very good deal. It's sixty dollars a month
to work and you can walk to work or ride
your bike. Doesn't say anything else about these crash pads.

Speaker 2 (02:29:45):
Today, learn this show right here, Thank you. Saying Stranger
Things is correct. Indeed, not only did they make a
Stranger Thing spin off for Broadway, but it was really successful.
This Stranger Things Broadway show won four to and that
is as I've heard, pretty good, I guess, and finally
today I learn this guy right here Michael Jackson is correct.

(02:30:12):
In two thousand, the Guinness Book of World Records cited
Michael Jackson as the most philanthropic pop star in history.
He gave over three hundred million dollars to charity in
his life, visited hospitals, orphanages at every single stop of
his tour, handed Gipson made donations all of these things.

(02:30:33):
He gave a lot, but a little too much to
the little kids. Sometimes allegedly when we come, well, we're done,
we're not coming back anymore. We're done coming back. We'll
be back on Monday, same time, same place. Missed Eddy
of the show.

Speaker 1 (02:30:44):
Get the podcast at the News junkie dot com. But
we'll see you later, buddy Sea. It goes all right, everybody.
We'll see you next time.

Speaker 3 (02:31:00):
Look Jesus, the kids, mad Son,
