Speaker 1 (00:00):
How is everybody doing on a Monday? Good? Good?

Speaker 2 (00:06):
It was like Monday. It's definitely, oh my solid Monday vibes.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
It's solid Monday weather. I'll say that it's definitely a
Monday outside.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
I mean, I drank coffee, I took my medication and
still on the way here with all the rain. I'm
like that couch. That couch so good.

Speaker 3 (00:23):
And I am here despite multiple escalating monetary offers from
my wife to call in sick.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
Really she was. She was trying to bribe you. She
has She's done this before. But how did we go up?
What was what was the number? Apt?

Speaker 3 (00:38):
You know, I don't think she got as high as
last time. I think she got to seven hundred dollars
venmo immediately.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
And he said no, yeah, but I think I.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
Think last time it was a thousand, and she just
didn't remember.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
But when he could have said fifty cents and I
would have said yes. This morning, I think my laptop
gave me a message. It was like two quarters these days.
My laptop gave me the message. It was like plug
it in soon or it's going to die. And I'm
like same. That's how I feel as a human today.
I was like, I don't know what's going on here.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
We need to chat in the morning.

Speaker 4 (01:09):
H same, Here's what we got. We got.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
We got a show, a big show, a medium size show,
actually a medium size show all the way size show,
extra large.

Speaker 4 (01:22):
Uh what but oh yeah, all right, here we go.
Let's get started. This. This is what you got folks today.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Medium. I should have gone smaller, fun size to have
a fun size show for you today. Let's put our
ears to the ground, our figures on the pols as
he was having to this great, big, wide world of ours,
and we go to the President of the United States
of America. Trump had a big weekend, had a big
weekend talking about the things. He was out there yapping
on the trail in front of a very large American

(01:52):
flag as as he's wont to do. And he talks
a lot, and so so much like me on the show.
Sometimes sometimes you just end up talking about random stuff.
And I guess somehow he got into a speech about
walking up and down the stairs, okay, and and like
how to do it the right way and how to

(02:14):
do it the wrong way?

Speaker 3 (02:16):
And one of this gathering was it I never know,
I mean, there was like there there were people there.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
There was a crowd, they were they were excited people.
He could say anything, you know, and like he's like
talking about going up and down the stairs.

Speaker 4 (02:32):
Listen, listen in I.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Walk very slowly. Nobody has to set a record.

Speaker 5 (02:38):
Just try not to fall because it doesn't work out well.
Is a few of our presidents have fallen. I just
became a part of their legacy. We don't want you
walk nice and easy and not. You don't have to
set any record. Be cool, be cool, be cool.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
When you're walking down the stairs. I probably would try
to do the thing. And I told you, guys, I
just tried this out to see if I still have it.
I think it's a test for those of you who
like me. Are you know, young ish? You know you
get you getting up there a little bit in your
early forties, not youngish. The test is if you get

(03:18):
a big flight of stairs in front of you, you
got to see if you could do it like you
used to when you were a little kid. And you're like,
and your feet went so fast in front of you, you
don't even know how they hit the steps.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
It's all rhythm. It's concentration. Do not dare look at
your phone while doing it. Now, that isous. It's a
way to look cool. I think all of us, regardless
of our age, anything over thirty, you are guaranteed to
not look cool. If you're going.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Upstairs, Oh it's harder, yeah yeah, or or that third flight.
Just skip stairs because you could. The more flights you
go up once you get over the age of thirty,
the more you're like leaning on the rail.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
Why am I like shaking right now? I don't remember.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
There was There was a one time true story. One
time I was doing the early morning show on the
station and I realized, oh my god, I'm gonna run
late here because there's a problem. There was a fire
alarm in the building and all the elevators were down,
and then that made them like lock the parking garage

(04:22):
or some readyon. So I had to get down to
the bottom of the building and I was twenty six
floors up. So I went down all these flights of stairs,
you know, down down da dah, da da da dah,
and got into my car and drove to the station
just in the nick of time to start the show.
But when I got to the first break, I wanted
to get up and throw away a piece of paper

(04:43):
and my legs didn't work anymore. I was like, yeah,
just try to like throw my legs around from going
Downstairs's that's a sad state of affairs there.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
But he's got the way to do it transparency.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Yeah, it was embarrassing. It remains that way, but I'm learning.
I'm learning here how to do it. The cool one
that was pre radio on TV Day in the stage.
So one thing with Obama.

Speaker 5 (05:10):
I had zero respect for him as a president, but
he would bump down those stairs up station, you go
down the stairs, wouldn't hold on. I said, it's great,
I don't want to do it. I guess I could
do it, but eventually bad things are going to happen.
And it only text was but he did, allows E.
Javis President.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
It's unreal. It's unreal.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
The funniest thing in the world is that you could
just go down any avenue. Like I worry sometimes when
we're talking about someone like, this is boring onto the
next thing. This is boring on to the next thing.
And then I watch sometimes what people will take interest in,
and I'm like, number one, I've realized a lot of
your weirdos. We can talk about the ed geen thing
this weekend on Netflix, all right, and the Weirdo in

(06:01):
My House number one, a lot of your weirdoes. And
number two, you have patience to listen to all sorts
of nonsense, like just random chattering and yapping about just
all sorts of things.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
This works out great. If you see that the story
or segment is getting to be really boring, just end
it with but Obama was allowed to president.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
At the end, you just bringing the insult. It doesn't care.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
We didn't mention any sort of Obama reference, just but
remember was the president.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Oh there he goes, And I like the little song
he did too. Let me see, can I get that back?
Going down the stairs?

Speaker 5 (06:38):
He's like, dude, Obama, I had zero respect for him
as a president, but he would bump down those stairs up.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
Never say, I'm.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Not sure what that song was, but I do know.
Trump had a big weekend. You know, there's a lot
of stuff going on. And one of the things was
he did an appearance with the Navy. I believe, like
you know, the US military, two hundred and fifty years
in the Navy, first lady as. They were all out
there doing their thing, and that's great. I think that's
fantastic to go out there and support the troops and stuff.

(07:13):
I did think, and I don't know, like this may
be a common thing, but I did think when they
pulled up in Marine one, the Presidential Chopper, the soundtrack
that they were blasting for all the semen out there
on deck was a little bit was a little bit much.
I mean, it was a choice, and it was like

(07:34):
it was maybe an effective choice. But as Marine one
is humming in and making its way to land on
this Navy ship, you hear the music that's accompanying in
all right, the top gun theme song, which show I mean,

(08:03):
one thing that kind of hits the mind is it's
a helicopters. Top cut is an airplane.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Yes, it's a theme to any airplane, several propellers. Obama
was a lawsy present, so they.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
Gave it to that, which was pretty fun too. It
should have just like cranked up a little.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
He's starting to do that old man whisper thing.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
Uh. You can't hear it of.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
That, you know in the speech lean empty.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
Yeah, well he could do that only wants if you
come in with this, I can't really hear it because
the chopper's a bit loud as it were. But you
know that's what they did. They made their way in

(08:48):
and just celebrated there with the two hundred and fiftieth
birthday of the Navy. And I wanted to say to you, yeah,
Navy people, happy birthday, Happy birth They said, you couldn't
do it. You made it two hundred and fifty years
and honest to God, that's impressive. Most things do not
make it to it day over two forty nine. True.

Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, well there they are.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
You guys, know, anybody in the Navy, you know, anybody
who served in the Navy, probably not unpatriotic swine. You
probably don't, okay to you. Well, my father was in
the Marines, as you know, which makes me part and
parcel of the Marines. But my uncle is a Navy vet,
my uncle Joe, and proud a proud Navy vet. Tattoos,

(09:34):
you know, like all the Navy tattoos, all the yeah yeah.
And the funny thing was my uncle. I don't know
if this is still the case, like, well this happened
to me one day, but my uncle got all of
these tattoos when he was in the Navy. And he's
now seventy five seventy six years old or something, and
if you look at him now, they have all like

(09:56):
formed together into one cohesive blob of nothing.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
So like the technology was different then. But yeah, I've
seen those where it's like someone wrote in permanent marker
and you have taken five showers.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
You're like, oh, cool, that's it's an anchor, and he's like, no,
that is it's a mermaid.

Speaker 4 (10:14):
I got it.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
I got it off of the coast of Hawaii. Like, oh,
it's beautiful. It's absolutely stunning and amazing to look at.
So we have so many things to get into today.
We're going to talk about the new season of SNL
and what went wrong there and Trump's reaction to it.
We'll get into that a little bit. I do want
to talk about because this weekend, and it wasn't even

(10:37):
just this weekend in my house, it was the entire
run up to the release of this horrific show on
Netflix about a killer named ed Geen that was horrific in.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
Subject or was the actual quality of the show also horrific?

Speaker 6 (10:57):
It was disgusting and disturbing, and for me, we need
to look.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Back and see Courtney on the couch with like sort
of her head in her hands, watching eagerly the ed
Geen story, and she's like, you know, it's interesting to
see that he's getting some credit finally, And I'm like.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
What I mean? There was so many layers to it,
and so often during the because we watched it all
and one sitting we looked at each other like, what
the hell is going on here?

Speaker 1 (11:25):
Yeah, we'll get into to that.

Speaker 4 (11:26):
What's going on?

Speaker 1 (11:27):
Hey, thanks to everybody by the way over on YouTube
right now, like Leslie who says Navy vet twenty two
years very much fun, a bunch of other people sun
State John says he's a Navy vet. I'm assuming that
you folks are telling the truth and I absolutely appreciate
your service and all that good stuff. So there you go,
congratulations on two hundred and fift years. We'll get into the

(11:48):
ed Geen thing. We'll get into SNL.

Speaker 4 (11:50):
That's just the.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
First hour of the show. We missed out as per usual.
I mean, like you know how the show goes. Now,
right after the show ended as expected, the verdict, the
des sentencing in the Ditty case and some of the
things attached to that, and I can you imagine, can
you imagine when he was sitting at that Courtum, how
pissed off?

Speaker 4 (12:11):
Did he was?

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (12:12):
Yeah, I think I think.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
He really thought he was going to get out and
do like speeches that weekend and to start planning his tour.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
And we talked on Friday about the thing where he
had booked some some speaking engagements, and the prosecution tried
to use that against him, being like, see, he clearly
has no respect for the law.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
He already thinks he's just walking out of here.

Speaker 4 (12:37):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
But the other thing that caught my eye, and I'm
trying to find the screenshot I have of it that
I don't know that we really discussed this, but I go,
Who's where were these lawyers educated? Because the attorney broke
down in tears when his defense tried to argue for
a light sentence, and lawyer Nicole Westmoreland said he deserves

(13:00):
of the leniency because he was awarded Men'swear Designer of
the Year by the American Passing Council in two thousand
and four. That's a great shield. He deserves leniency because
he got years ago.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
That is the one award he has. He's not gotten
anything besides that.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
I'd like you to go easy on Sean with this sentencing.
He is, of course the twenty nineteen Fritz on the
Street winner.

Speaker 4 (13:25):
All right, and uh, let's be a little lenient.

Speaker 3 (13:29):
He deserves leniency because this podcast was the most.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
Downloaded for a year. Wow. All right, wait, we will
get into all of that, the reaction and more on
a very busy show. So join us with your dispatches,
your emails, all of that good stuff over at the
news Junkie dot com that is coming up next and
the News Junkie. Oh my god, the amount of show

(14:06):
times is some of these theaters over the weekend for
Taylor Swift in this movie that she made, so she
has the number one movie in the country and the
number one album in the country.

Speaker 4 (14:16):
It's all a bit much.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
It's all a bit much to see, and it doesn't
even seem like maybe somebody saw it and then give
me the rundown. But it doesn't seem like there was
much there. It was like an eighty somethingter minute feature
where they debuted a music video and showed some behind
the scenes stuff. Number one at the box office this weekend,
thirty three million dollars. Okay, all right, what did Joker

(14:44):
to do at its opening Weekend.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Thirty three dollars.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
I believe if you look at those two compared to
each other, it's like, all right, here we go. She
has her audience so well monetized. It's so crazy to me.
She's just cranking stuff out and they love it, man,
they love it. I listened to a couple of songs
on Taylor Swift's new albums.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
I was familiar with it.

Speaker 3 (15:05):
I have been subject to I think a good portion
of the album.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
What'd you think? What were your thoughts? Some decent stuff.

Speaker 3 (15:12):
There's one where it's the same chord progression for where
Is My Mind? By the Pixies? Oh really, that one
stood out to me a little bit.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
There's a bunch that, like the few that I heard
were pretty boring. I thought like there was some songs
that were just kind of boring.

Speaker 3 (15:26):
Little them were a little mellow, not mellow, but subdued
compared to well.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
Though, like maybe that's in right now. Maybe the kids
are into the mellow stuff. I don't know what they're
into anymore, but Taylor Swift The Showgirl movie number one
at the box office thirty three million dollars. Leonardo DiCaprio
number two with eleven million dollars the Rock. What's the
movie called Buddy after another?

Speaker 4 (15:50):
Just said Leonardo DiCaprio.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Number two, we just had this discussion.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
I was gonna say, another one by the Dust. I
have no idea what that movie is called.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
Number three was this movie that The Rock made, and
it's It's always kind of funny to me. The Rock's like,
I'm gonna really flex my muscles here, I'm gonna do
some serious acting. I'm gonna change my entire appearance and
lose a whole bunch of weight and look all emaciated
to nail the role and physically alter myself and up
the six million dollars.

Speaker 7 (16:19):
You know.

Speaker 4 (16:20):
It's like they spent fifty mili on this.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
It was gonna be his Academy Award winning role.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
Yeah, I think they they were betting big on this. Well,
I mean maybe, but it seemed like people didn't really.
When you start to go after that audience, it's like, okay, uh,
most people who like The Rock want some fun action
movie with it, you know what I mean? Like, I've
seen the Jungle, what is it? What's the damn Robin

(16:46):
Williams movie? Did Jumanji? I've seen Welcome to the Jungle
is the second one from Jumaji.

Speaker 4 (16:51):
I think.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
But I've seen those movies and it's such a fun romp.
But I love all that crap. But then you're like, okay,
now take this guy very seriously and he's going to
make you cry.

Speaker 4 (17:01):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
It's like when they said The Toy Story movie was
supposed to make you cry. And then it got to
that scene where all all the characters in Woody and
Buzz they're in the right they're about to go into
the incinerator and they're like, you know, about to die,
and everybody's crying in the theater and I'm like, they're
toys and they're not alive, you know. And it just

(17:23):
didn't ever wrote me in. I think people felt that
way about The Smashing Machine. They they were supposed to
make people cry.

Speaker 3 (17:29):
I thought it was the end where they like, whoa,
there's a parting of voays oh well that too.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
I think there's a bunch of moments where they wanted
to make you cry. They successfully did it for most people.
I'll tell you what made me cry, Sporky. Sporky made
me cry because they just blatantly introduced the most suicidal
character and animation history, and he's like, They're like, no, Sporky,
don't do it.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
He's ah, wasn't there wasn't there a character in the
Super Mario Brothers movie that was pretty uh sad.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
Yeah, yeah, it's a weird move. I don't know why
they do that.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
They pretty put me out of my misery ish like, yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
Leave that to the inside out, all right, they'll tell
us about all the emotions we're having in our body
and how to deal with it and stuff.

Speaker 4 (18:12):
But anyways, they tried their best. They failed.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
They missed over with the Smashing Machine, Gabby's Dollhouse in
a number four. The Conjuring Last rates in at number five,
all the way down beyond Demon Slayer, Infinity Castle, and
then Some Good Boy from IFC, the one about the
scary movie, the scary move from the dog's perspective, It
was in ninth place with two point eight million dollars.

(18:36):
But that was really good for them. Actually, I know
it sounds bad, but I think it already makes it
after the opening weekend, the third biggest movie for IFC
and Shutter. That's like the streaming operation that they have
in history. So I still want to see that. I'm sure,
it'll be out on streaming lickety Split, and I'll give

(18:56):
them a couple of my bucks to watch that soon. Meanwhile,
doesn't matter how many bucks he has, he couldn't get.

Speaker 4 (19:02):
Himself out of prison. Last week.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
Diddy gets hit with it a bit, just a bit
below the sentence and guidelines. The judge on Friday ordered
Sean Diddy Combs to serve fifty five zero months in prison,
which is just over fashion award. Too bad, too bad.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
I don't know he can try to do some fashion
and a jail house outfit.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
He's going to have to because it was over just
over four years. He's already served one year, so he's
got very close to three years in prison left. When
this set up, a bitch was planning his weekend. He's like,
all right, first we'll do a couple speaking engagements contracts.
That's why I saw fifty cent came out. He was like,

(19:44):
I heard there might be some people in need of
a speaker this weekend at some events. He's just getting
a man. He was sentenced at Federal Court in New
York City three months after he was convicted on the
two prostitution related charges. One thing I.

Speaker 4 (19:57):
Thought was interesting.

Speaker 1 (19:58):
So he was a quick on the charges of sex
trafficking and racketeering and.

Speaker 4 (20:03):
All that stuff.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
He was convicted on the two prostitution related charges, which
were essentially boiled down to hiring a prostitute and having
them cross state lines, and that that was basically.

Speaker 4 (20:16):
The charge that that he was facing.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
The judge after giving the sentence, which was I think,
I think a fine sentence from the judge. By the way,
I think that made sense. It wasn't too lenient. Yeah,
you didn't let them off too easy, et cetera, et cetera.
About eleven years seemed too much. But the judge starts
to say, I want to take a brief moment and

(20:38):
shout out the bravery of the women who testified in
this court, and Cassie and then you know, the Jane
Doe that's spoken in court. And I'm like, okay, yeah,
that's nice. And the judge kind of like kept going
and it was like, we wanted to get, you know,
the verdict that you deserved, and we wanted to make
sure that none of this happened in vain. And the

(21:00):
judge kept going on with this stuff, and at some
point I'm like, hey, in this kind of weird because
he wasn't convicted on those charges. Like the judges is
basically saying, we heard your horrific stories of your abuse,
and we wanted to make sure that the punishment fit
the crime.

Speaker 4 (21:14):
And in my head I was like.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Convicted, Yeah, I don't care, but you know that's not
the crime he was convicted for.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
It was he found not guilty or they dropped the charges.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Uh, he was acquitted on the on the sex trafficking, racketeering,
conspiracy charges. So just it seemed a little bit weird
that the judge was going over that. It's like, here's
an example. While nothing can undo the trauma caused by Combs,
the sentence imposts today recognized that the impact of the
serious crimes he committed. We are confident that with the

(21:47):
support of our family and friends, Miss venture Up. This
is her attorneys, I guess will continue healing, knowing that
her bravery and fortitude have been an inspiration for so many.
After delivering a sensing, the judge wanted to speak to
the two women who testified against Holmes. You've been through
abuse many of us can't imagine. And the judge like
went on and on and on about that it was like,
I guess nobody's gonna really care it's it did. He

(22:09):
seems like the most unlikable guy. I don't believe for
a second that he regrets anything other than the fact
that he's in prison right now.

Speaker 4 (22:18):
I don't think that he's like, I.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Got to change my life when I get out of here.
I think my money is on in three years, that
son of a bitch is going to get out and
he's going to start doing like speaking engagements or whatever,
and he's going to tell you how the judicial system
wronged him, right, because you know they were everybody was
against him or whatever, and he's just not He's not

(22:39):
going to be a changed person.

Speaker 4 (22:40):
I don't think. So there he is.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
He will wither away for at least three years in
prison and then be released afterwards. Oh and also five
hundred thousand dollars fine to boot.

Speaker 3 (22:52):
Which I think was the maximum that could impose by law. Right, Yes,
and it makes sense.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
It's like, what you got to hit him with something
that's gonna make the most impact, because five hundred thousand
dollars to a regular person is a lot. Five hundred
thousand dollars the Diddy is not so hit him with
a whole damn thing, and that's that's what they ended
up doing. Also this weekend, how many of us saw
the season premiere of season fifty one of Saturday Night Law.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
Clips online?

Speaker 1 (23:23):
Okay, I watched it. I sat down and watched this
was the whole show. Yes, And if I ever get sentenced,
I think that I deserve some time off and easy
judgment from leniency.

Speaker 4 (23:37):
Some leniency would be nice.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
Just for for getting through that episode of Saturday Night Live.
And I sat there afterwards after having watched the entirety
of this show, from the insanely bad and boring performances
from Doja Cat to sketch after sketch that was not

(23:59):
funny at all. I mean not even like okay, you
just don't get this. Like, I didn't see too many
people who are like this was hilarious. I didn't know.
And this is why I have a question for everybody here.
I didn't know. Who do you blame? Do you blame
the new cast members that are just like not gelling
yet because it's really early and you got to give

(24:19):
them some time? Do you blame when an episode is bad?
You blame the writers for SNL They got new writers
on their staff and how much.

Speaker 3 (24:27):
Did the writing staff switch up. I don't know, I
don't know. I don't even know who's to blame, but
I know it was bad. It was bad to watch this.
They had like two bits that were pretty good. There
was one with bad Bunny and sink Galermo del Toro

(24:48):
who showed up. They were talking Guermo del Toro. They
were talking about.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
How in the Spanish language you assign a word to
be male or female, and how it doesn't make sense
a whole bunch of times. It's like a silly premise,
probably been done before a bunch of times. But at
least that was like okay, And they had a couple
of decent jokes in there. There were some skits that
were just like stone cold, not funny, like just not
you couldn't find the laugh line in there. Of course,

(25:15):
the studio audience will, we'll go for just about anything
that you give them, but leaven the stories from places
like screen ran who are usually like usually a friendly
on these topics, say Saturday Night Live Season fifty one
premier leaves fans deeply divided, and it says a fresh
new cast which comes with recent editions such as Cam Patterson.
Camp Patterson's from Florida. What's he doing up there? The

(25:38):
state of Florida is depending on you, Camp Patterson. And
he comes in with a bit about can I say
the N word? And it was like clunky and oh god.
The only funny thing really was Michael Jay made a
joke that I was like, that's an excellent point about
how the Trump administration said that they were going to

(25:59):
send ice to the Super Bowl for bad bunny performing
and he goes, yes, a notable place where illegal immigrants
will hang out, where tickets cost fifteen thousand dollars to
watch the Super Bowl. And I was like, that's a
good point.

Speaker 4 (26:13):
A couple of.

Speaker 3 (26:16):
Not paying taxes clearly, Yeah, they're probably not gonna be
attendance out of the thing.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
Lorraina says, I'm Hispanic and I couldn't get through bad
Buddies acting and accent. I think he did whatever he
could with I.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
Did see the clip of the semen bit over at
the restaurant.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Was that there? Yeah, look again the idea that you
have a couple at a restaurant who wants their friend
to help them get pregnant, and then somebody else overhears
it and like they're like, I'm willing to do it?

Speaker 6 (26:51):
Who greenlit this? I feel like it's been done eight
billion times. It's like the most obvious thing in the world.
There was a lot of stuff like that. There was
a lot of that.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
And I gotta know, I want to see what everybody
thought about this, And who do you think when you
watch that? Do you blame the writers? Do you blame
the I can't even really blame the actors because none
of the new cast even made an appearance until like
the last twenty or thirty minutes of the show, and
they just pop in at that point in time.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
So somebody like did the numbers on Reddit are slash
Live from New York. It says there's seven brand new writers, right, okay,
three with one season of experience, three with two to three,
three with four seasons of experience, and eight with five
plus seasons of experience. That's still like a big chunk.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
I would be welcomes down to what Lord Michaels approves, right.

Speaker 3 (27:50):
Yeah, I would be surprised if there's that many that
the seven brand new ones got much on the air,
right versus the eight people with five plus seasons of experience.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Like it was probably similar to the new cast members
who didn't get that much screen. There was five brand
new cast members, uh huh, one of them, I think,
I don't know if it was a new under There
was one cast member. They didn't even show up on
the show. They weren't they weren't in anything. They didn't
get hot feature in.

Speaker 8 (28:17):
Any of that.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
That's common, especially with the they call him like the
featured players, and you're kind of like a you're kind
of like a cast member.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
Light.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
Yeah, when you first start off. I believe David Spade
for a while, which just when he got signed on
to that cast and he was a featured player, he
wasn't in hardly anything.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
Oh really, they just iced him out.

Speaker 3 (28:40):
Yeah, it wasn't until he started like making fun of
people and doing that snarky David Spade thing, like until
he came into his own and that was what really
kind of started to get him a little traction on
the show.

Speaker 4 (28:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
They also the well I think it was the opening
bit really not the like political things that they alway
start with that's usually not all that funny, but the
first like.

Speaker 4 (29:03):
Bit that they do.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
They did one that was recorded, you know, they do
the recorded bits, and it was chat gpto and it
was like a Spanish uncle that is the chat GBT replacement,
which was like mildly funny. But they did a bit
on Jeopardy where one of the contestants didn't understand the
rules of the game and didn't understand you had to
answer in the form of a question, and it's like,
oh my god, this is so unoriginal. All this stuff

(29:27):
is really bad Bootsy boonshot on Twitches. Maybe I'm out
of touch, but I didn't understand any of the references
on this sketches I saw. I mean, the thing that
I'll close with here before we open it up to
folks who might have some comments on them is And
by the way, they try to get the White House
to comment on this, the White House said reacting to
this would require me to waste time and energy watching it,
White House spokesman spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told Entertainment Weekly, And

(29:52):
like millions of Americans who have tuned out from SNL,
I haven't seen the ratings yet. By the way, I
have more entertaining things to do, like watch paint dry.
So watching all of this stuff the last segment, in particular,
it was directed solely at like the Latin American audience
who had watched this very specific television show when they

(30:13):
were children, and they did a riff off of this
television show. For anybody else, it doesn't make any sense
and it's not funny at all, and it's like, okay, Well,
targeting different groups might be good, you know, bringing in
different cast members.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
To provide different perspectives might be good.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
But if you find yourself completely alienating the overall base
of people that you have watching your show too much,
you might find that eventually they just feel like the
whole show's not even really for them anymore. They pack
up their bags and they head elsewhere. This is the
kind of stuff that I think happens, but it's really early.
We'll see what you think. Send us a dispatch over
at thenewsjunkie dot com.

Speaker 4 (30:50):
I just thought it was real bad.

Speaker 1 (30:52):
Quick break. When we come back, we'll see what's happening
with your comments. And I got a couple of emails
to get into. And most importantly, another awkward moment and
football broadcasting happened this Sunday. It's been a weird time.
Wait till you hear this one. It's coming up next
in the news, Chunkie. I want to talk about the

(31:28):
story this weekend that really grabbed my attention because it
was such a wild ride when they started talking about
this NFL guy who was stabbed. And I don't know
how much this popped up on your radar, but all
of a sudden, these stories came out. They're like NFL
analyst Mark Sanchez stabbed, he's in bad shape, he might

(31:50):
die in the hospital. And people go, oh, my god,
what a world we're living in. It sure is crazy
out there, and everybody kind of rallied around and started
feeling bad for this guy. And you know, poor dude
got stabbed. That's unbelievable. And then the more about the
story that came out, it was like, oh, hang on,
is Mark Sanchez the batti here?

Speaker 4 (32:09):
Was?

Speaker 1 (32:10):
Was he this? All of a sudden It's like, oh,
he just went ham on some like uber food driver
or something. And I'll get into the details of a second,
but it led to yet another awkward broadcast moment. I
forgot the last one that we played, but remember when
like somebody who some football player had been arrested and

(32:31):
they came back from break.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
Domestic violence.

Speaker 4 (32:37):
Yeah, yeah, and they.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
Just they come back from break and they're like, what
you're not seeing on the sideline is this NFL player
because he was arrested on a domestic violence charge. And
of course we hear at the NFL take domestic violence
claims very.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Seriously, and so this brought to you by hearties.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
And wait, am I wrong? Didn't they have a woman
do that?

Speaker 3 (32:56):
They had like a different person who was who wasn't
the main commentator, and it happened to be a woman,
but it was like she they threw it to her
to deliver the news, you know, headline.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
Uh huh.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
I think probably, so they didn't have to do it,
and it would probably would have been more awkward if
they tried to show it in there, shoehorn it in there,
and then go back to what they were doing.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
Yeah, it was weird though, and like this was weird too.
Fox starts their coverage during one of the games on
Sunday and one of the dudes isn't there because Mark Sanchez,
this guy that was involved in this stabbing, involved in
a stabbing an altercation in downtown Indianapolis. He was supposed
to be at the Raiders Colts game, but the Raiders
Colts game starts in. Obviously he's not there, he's in

(33:40):
the hospital, for God's sake, and they've got to kind
of explain what's going on.

Speaker 4 (33:45):
So they again awkwardly get into this.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
They go, why Jason, why your song?

Speaker 4 (33:54):
You got to get those advertising?

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Why kind up singing it?

Speaker 1 (33:58):
No? And he's got some new dude with him, this broadcaster.
He doesn't have his usual partner, Mark Sanchez on account
of the stabbing.

Speaker 7 (34:06):
Waity, welcome, you get a clue Cindiana as well Las Vegas.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
Raiders also Las Vegas. Come on? Who says Las Vegas.
Maybe I'm saying it wrong. Maybe I think we got
it right. Las Vegas is what I always did. Right here,
they go, thank you for.

Speaker 7 (34:25):
Being with us and for tuning in on Chris Myers
along with Brady Quinn.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
Right, the Brady Quinn guy is the guy who's not
obviously generally there. He isn't part of the broadcast crew,
but he ends up. His absence is explained by this guy,
Chris Myers, just stepping.

Speaker 7 (34:42):
In for Mark Sanchez, And obviously we all want to
send out our thoughts and.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
Prayers to Mark and those involved.

Speaker 7 (34:50):
In Friday's incident as we get ready for today's game,
and this game should be a good one.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
Yeah, right on by it. They're like, we are thoughts
in prayers with this family for this incident, which has to.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
Those involved, like particularly the person that he attacked.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
Mm hmmm, yes, yeah, I mean it does look like
he attacked some but this dude, this person that was responsible.

Speaker 3 (35:13):
At the time of this Errand I don't remember whether
the Colts played at one or four, but could could
it be possible that they said, okay, well all we
know is Mark Sanchez has been stabbed and so we
need a subn Yeah, and not know.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
That he was in the wrong yet.

Speaker 4 (35:30):
Yeah, yeah, because it was.

Speaker 1 (35:32):
It was back and forth throughout the whole morning. Well,
they're like, by the way, we want to say our
thoughts and prayers were taking them back from Mark Sanchez's family.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
We would like those thoughts and prayers back. We're going
to move them over to the family of the uber driver.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
Let's get the details.

Speaker 4 (35:47):
It says.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
Former NFL quarterback and current Fox Sports analyst Mark Sanchez
was arrested on Saturday after he was apparently stabbed in
an overnight altercation in downtown Indianapolis. You know you've done
something wrong if somebody stabs you and you get arrested. Sanchez,
who was in Indianapolis to call Sunday's Raiders Colts game,
was charged with battery with injury, unlawful entry of a

(36:08):
motor vehicle, and public intoxication, all misdemeanors. They said he
was in a hospital and had not been booked into
a detention center.

Speaker 4 (36:17):
He's in stable condition.

Speaker 1 (36:19):
Police said the prosecutor's office will make the final charging decision.
Indianapolis police said earlier in the day they were investigating
confrontation that occurred around twelve thirty am, so just after
midnight between two men, one of whom was hospitalized with
stab wounds. Detectives reviewed footage about this and then they
said a few other details were available. Okay, I've got

(36:41):
this is from the police report here. Okay, it says
according to the report, this is from a reporter named
Max Lewis, the delivery man told police that something didn't work.
I am let me go back. Let me go back
here a little bit. Fox Sports is confirmed that the
NFL quarterback now TV analyst Mark Sanchez was stabbed in
downtown Indianapolis police say it stemmed from a fight, and

(37:01):
they said he was the aggressor. Sanchez allegedly attacked a
food delivery man after he told the driver he couldn't
park in the alley and needed to leave. The driver
told the cops that Sanchez began to follow him and
threaten him. He said Sanchez then attacked him and he
fought back using pepper spray. According to the report, the
delivery man told police it didn't work, and when Sanchez

(37:23):
continued to attack him, he used a knife to defend himself.
Jeez where told the driver had a significant injury to
his face and had to be taken to the local hospital.
The report says Sanchez was transported initially in critical condition
and had to be taken to surgery. They said he
hadn't been interviewed by the police as of this. I'm
sure that he has now. Please say the reviewed surveillance

(37:44):
footage of what happened and the case will be forwarded
to the prosecutor's office. Now, I don't know if this
is a clue or not, but saying that the pepper
spray didn't work is usually an indicator that the person
was messed up, like if you are tweaked out on
some sort of drugs, sometimes you pepper spray the person

(38:06):
and it doesn't effect that.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
I was always like, you tage the person who doesn't
affect them. But even if you're I've seen both PCP,
your eyes won't react to something like that.

Speaker 4 (38:15):
I guess now I've seen it.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
Yeah, so a scene where like somebody goes pepper spray
up and then they'll hit him right in the eyes
and the person just keep coming at you.

Speaker 3 (38:23):
Somebody in the comments of what you were just showing,
I think you're on a different page now. But somebody said,
I think this person doesn't believe the driver because they
said something like yep, that's the one. Less Sanchez was
on bath salts and wearing a gas mask. That makes
no sense. I makesed the guy and it didn't work,
so I had to stab him. I was just parking
my car. He's saying, Nope, he doesn't he doesn't believe

(38:45):
the story.

Speaker 1 (38:45):
Or maybe it goes back the other way again, these
are victim Uh. They got to cut back in our
thoughts and prayers once again. Go over to Mark Santa.

Speaker 2 (38:52):
The Umbrella of thoughts and prayers to everyone.

Speaker 3 (38:55):
Our thoughts and prayers on X you'll know where they
lie at any and any given moment.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
Does pepper spray expire?

Speaker 4 (39:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (39:05):
I believe so. I mean, I mean they have an
expiration date. I think a year after it's still going
to be effective. But a ten year old pepper spray,
don't know is going to be effective.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
Let me ask Tji this will know for sure what's
going on here? Oh hang on, everything is trying to
connect to my phone now, Hello, does pepper spray expire? Hey?

Speaker 8 (39:30):
There, Yes, pepper spray does expire. Most pepper spray canisters
have a shelf life of about two to four years.
Oh really that the effectiveness can decrease. Really, so it's
a good idea to replace it when it reaches its
expiration date to ensure it works when you need it.

Speaker 4 (39:46):
So what did they say?

Speaker 7 (39:48):
Four years?

Speaker 1 (39:49):
Yeah, that's not even that long. It's it's not effective
after that point. So it could have been that that
happened too. I don't know, But bad day from Mark
Sanchez and he wasn't there for the broadcast. When we
come back, you know, Will will be here for the broadcast.
We still got to get into the whole Netflix thing
with the ed Genes series and a bunch of emails.
But we're going to clear the deck here for our
friend Amy Kaufelt of Fox thirty five. She's the best

(40:11):
of the best, and she'll be with us in just
a matter of moments, and that is coming up next.

Speaker 4 (40:15):
And then to use.

Speaker 1 (40:16):
Junkie ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 4 (40:33):
It's my favorite part of the week. It's yours too,
I know it is.

Speaker 1 (40:36):
It's because finally we get some professionalism around here, finally
get the celebrated hint of it. You tell taste a
hard worker around these parts. It's the time that we
get to hang out with our friend Amy Kawfel from
Fox thirty five. Guys, Hey, Amy, how are you.

Speaker 4 (40:54):
How was your week?

Speaker 1 (40:54):
Good?

Speaker 9 (40:55):
Happy Monday, everybody.

Speaker 4 (40:56):
Yeah, it looks like you're in a new spot there.

Speaker 10 (40:58):
Huh yeah, okay, so are under total renovation around here.
So so basically the way we did this was like
we were over on one side of the building while
they worked on the new studio and the new newsroom.
And now that the studio and the newsroom are done,
now we moved over to the new side of the building.
But so now the old side where I used to
do my talks with you is now under demo.

Speaker 1 (41:22):
Yeah you need to help to let you help with
the demo, just like a blow.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
I know.

Speaker 10 (41:28):
I always think about, like you know, like those home
improvement shows where you get out the sledgehammer and the
big goggles and you're like, I know that actually would
help me because I had a I had a long weekend.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
Oh did you know what happened? What's going on?

Speaker 10 (41:40):
No, it was good, It's just that, so I ended
up working at like kind of like a pseudo double
on Friday because everybody's off, you know how it is
like there there is there. Somebody always has to fill in.
Like that's just the way it is, right, you know
what I mean, Like you guys understand, like somebody's not there,
somebody has to step up and fill that role. So
the memes, yes, so John Llewem were both off on Fridays,

(42:04):
so that meant so I did the morning show and
then I went home and then probably against my better judgment,
I took a long nap.

Speaker 9 (42:10):
So then I woke up like really groggy, and then
I could come in and in the six.

Speaker 4 (42:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (42:16):
But so as you guys know too, you're well, you
guys are used to being on during the daytime, but
like I'm always accustomed to saying good morning because I
work in the morning, and so a couple of times
I had to like correct myself.

Speaker 9 (42:29):
Morning at night.

Speaker 1 (42:31):
I'm sure people were very, very understanding, at least I
hope that they were in that in that moment. I
want to let me take the temperature. Here's something I
don't know about, Amy Kaufel. Are you into any of
the true crime stuff that gets so many people's attention,
Amy Coffro, I love that stuff.

Speaker 10 (42:50):
Yeah, it's awesome, like I like, and it's funny too
because I'll watch, like I watched the docuseries the other day.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
What was it called.

Speaker 9 (42:57):
It's called like Unknown Caller.

Speaker 10 (42:59):
I think seen that one, Okay, Yeah, And even though
I do the news, I had forgotten about who the
person was. Who was the Unknown Caller? Okay, So I
truly watched it as somebody who's like I don't know
who it's going to be, and I'm like watching trying
to figure it out the whole time, and then they

(43:19):
give it me in and they say who it is.

Speaker 9 (43:22):
And I don't want to ruin it for other people.

Speaker 10 (43:24):
But holy I will you know how you had that
moment where you like have to call everyone you know.
I was like, oh my gosh, I'm like I got
to call everyone I.

Speaker 9 (43:34):
Know and be like, have you watched this?

Speaker 2 (43:35):
Because this reveal, that reveal after the entire you know what,
three episodes prior to that, they gave in full detail
all of the text messages those kids had received and
how bizarre and graphic they were lunch.

Speaker 10 (43:55):
And I think that was the worst part for me,
is that I was going back in my brain and
trying to recall like the ones that told the girl
to she should kill herself, yeah, and some of the
like horrific things they said about how she looks.

Speaker 2 (44:09):
And when you go back and your friend, yeah.

Speaker 10 (44:13):
I mean it's just and just like the craziness of
like then the boyfriend moves on and now stalking the
new boyfriend's mothers of the girl.

Speaker 9 (44:25):
I mean, just that it was. If y'all haven't seen it,
it's crazy the fact.

Speaker 3 (44:29):
That she participates in the docuseries, thinking like she's.

Speaker 10 (44:33):
Still having a little something away, But you're right, there
are a lot of people who participated, so so yes,
she was let's just say she was the last person
I would have had.

Speaker 1 (44:43):
Well, it wasn't even just that she participated. And then
they did the reveal, They're like, here's the person sending
these horrible texts. It was that they said, well, then
you feel bad sending these texts telling this person to
kill themselves And she's like no, because I knew they
would come to me and they have a great person
to talk them out of any feelings that they might be.

Speaker 4 (45:00):
And you're like, hold on, wait, what hold on?

Speaker 7 (45:03):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (45:03):
That that though, that's like entry level true crime.

Speaker 9 (45:07):
Entry level true crime compared to.

Speaker 1 (45:09):
What people were watching this weekend. Okay, like this the
series that became number one this weekend on Netflix about
this guy ed Geen, and the fact that Corny was
so enthralled with his story has me very worried. I
barely slept last night. I don't know what to do
with myself. Is there stuff like that? Are there things

(45:29):
where you watch something and you go that's too much
for me. I have to turn this off.

Speaker 10 (45:34):
So no, I if I started like if it's a
horror movie, if it's fake, I'm like, whatever I do.
But like, okay, did you see the one it's about.

Speaker 9 (45:42):
The British couple.

Speaker 10 (45:43):
Their last name is West, like Rose, Rose and something West.
This is the one where the couple was like abducting girls, yeah,
and then murdering and sexually assaulting them and then burying
them in the house.

Speaker 1 (45:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (45:57):
Yeah, and they had all the kids like that, And
that was probably the most disturbing one that I've ever watched.
But no, like, once I start watching it, I kind
of have to finish it. So what's this one you're
talking about?

Speaker 1 (46:09):
Ed keene Gan is the story? It's called Monster. It's
but they've done a different a bunch of different ones
in this series of Monster, the.

Speaker 2 (46:18):
Same one as the Menanda's brothers and Jeffrey Dahmer Murphy
was his most graphic one yet. I thought the show
was over two more episodes?

Speaker 9 (46:31):
Should I watch it?

Speaker 2 (46:32):
Or really was a lot to take care a lot?

Speaker 1 (46:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (46:39):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:41):
Have you ever seen Silends of the Lambs for example?

Speaker 1 (46:44):
Uh huh?

Speaker 2 (46:45):
That was the most That was the least graphic part
as far as references.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
Like wearing people's body parts a great time do it?

Speaker 9 (46:55):
And they show it, you show they show it.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
Yeah, yeah, I mean there's too much. I don't even
feel comfortable telling you about what happens in this series.

Speaker 4 (47:04):
That's that's how It's just it's.

Speaker 7 (47:08):
For me.

Speaker 1 (47:11):
It's a it's a lot.

Speaker 9 (47:12):
What's the series called?

Speaker 1 (47:13):
So I can look at monster the ed Geen story?
G E I N Yeah. My favorite part of it is,
I don't know, we probably build like it said some
point during the show. I'll bring up the audio of it.
Because the actor who played this role, he did a
great job playing this horrible person that I'm not even
sure we should be making shows about. Charlie. Charlie and
he they didn't know too much about what this guy

(47:37):
sounded like. And a lot of people are starting to
watch this and making fun of it immediately because he
picks a voice that is like ninety eight percent Winnie
the Pooh, that's the voice that. Yeah, it's a very
like soft voice saying like the most horrible things one

(47:58):
could ever imagine.

Speaker 2 (47:59):
It's uh, what's Sam Hill?

Speaker 1 (48:01):
Was that?

Speaker 4 (48:02):
All right?

Speaker 1 (48:03):
Let's go in another direction here. What's grabbing your attention
to this? Oh?

Speaker 10 (48:06):
Gosh, well, okay, I just since we're talking about things
that are really gross, I was gonna tell you guys
about this story that we sat in the news meeting
and we actually said this story is so gross we
might not be able to report it. So but but
since we're on this on the topic before I switch gears,
report with us.

Speaker 1 (48:25):
You could report it with us.

Speaker 10 (48:26):
We don't know you guys are you guys have different stomachs.

Speaker 9 (48:30):
I get it, I get it. So this is a Florida.

Speaker 10 (48:32):
Firefighter, a woman who has been arrested, accused of throwing
close to one hundred tampons on the lawn of her
her ex and she painted them, allegedly painted them red
so that they appeared to be.

Speaker 2 (48:51):
Yes, that was gonna be the first question. If they
were like unwrapped, then one, that's a waste of money.
In two, you could still put them back in a
box and sent the rest of the year.

Speaker 1 (49:03):
I don't want to go in this direction too far,
but I will say this is lazy.

Speaker 4 (49:07):
This is truly lazy.

Speaker 1 (49:08):
The real way to done this would have been to collect.

Speaker 2 (49:10):
Them over I've taken forever, would.

Speaker 1 (49:13):
Have taken many months. There was how many were there
was more?

Speaker 9 (49:16):
There was a hundred, more than a hundred.

Speaker 1 (49:18):
Yeah, yeah, woman, So she's in trouble, this lady.

Speaker 10 (49:23):
Yeah, So she's an Orange County firefighter. It happened in
Volusia County. It was actually the new girlfriend of the
ex boyfriend who's the one that reported it. It happened
just last week. She Kinty Sheriff's offices. They were flagged
down by a woman who so she wanted to ask
about an incident that had taken a place at their home.

(49:44):
The woman said she and her boyfriend came home on
September thirtieth to a large number of red painted tampons
scattered across the front yard. It says the couple then
reviewed their security footage. They saw a dark colored pickup
truck slowly passing. A couple said that truck appeared to
make sure that no other cars were around before circling
back around and then seen throwing the tampons onto the yard.

(50:09):
The video then shows a woman running on foot into
the yard and throwing even more than they believed it
to be the ex girlfriend.

Speaker 1 (50:16):
Yeah, my favorite part of this is you probably come
up with this while you maybe have a couple of
drinks in your system, and I'm gonna get him back.
I'm gonna throw a hundred tampons into my ex's yard.
And then it gets real when the cops show up
and you have to explain, like, well, why was it
that you did. You're like, oh my god, now I'm
gonna be on the news now I'm getting arrested for this.

Speaker 9 (50:36):
But yeah, because now there's a mug shot, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 1 (50:39):
But it does.

Speaker 10 (50:40):
I'm sure at the time you're thinking, this is no
different than like tpeeing someone's house, or this is no difference, you.

Speaker 9 (50:45):
Know what I mean, Like right, like I don't know.

Speaker 10 (50:49):
I mean, it's obviously much worse than that. However, we've
all like tpeed somebody's house that went well, whoa when
I was a kid, Like you know, you get the
toilet paper, you throw it up in the tree, it
makes a mess, whatever, it's like you don't really think
much of it. But like this, but she was arrested
oneanor misdemeanor stalking.

Speaker 4 (51:10):
Yeah it looks like it. Holy cow.

Speaker 2 (51:12):
Well watch gets her period and she's like, I don't
have any told dance damn it.

Speaker 9 (51:18):
Well that's the other thing, Sabrina.

Speaker 10 (51:19):
You bring up another good point, like there they are expensive,
and it just seems like, yeah, you know.

Speaker 4 (51:25):
Waste, what what?

Speaker 7 (51:27):
What?

Speaker 1 (51:27):
An absolute waste? But it would have been worth it
because it would have been real. All right, God, all right,
if you're gonna do it, you might as well be
gross all the way.

Speaker 4 (51:42):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (51:43):
So on a more serious note, you're saying Amy.

Speaker 10 (51:45):
On a more serious note, they did open up the
STARTUS Racers this weekend.

Speaker 1 (51:49):
It epic.

Speaker 9 (51:50):
You guys, I don't know what.

Speaker 10 (51:51):
Are your thoughts on this, because this is this is
a story that if you read the comments, which I'm
sure you guys have, and I know you guys have
been talking a lot about it, the comments tend to
be majority in favor of opening the ride back up.
So we're actually we're in the middle of the news
conference right now with the attorney for the family, Brent
ben Krump. It started at eleven thirty this morning. It
was actually held in Orlando, and just talking about their

(52:13):
displeasure with Universal for making the decision to reopen the ride.
For those of your listeners who are not familiar with
what happened, about three weeks ago, this young man, thirty
two year old Kevin Zabala, got onto the ride. He
had a spinal condition which he was in a wheelchair.
Apparently some of the folks who work at Universal did

(52:34):
help him to get on the ride. When he got
off the ride, he was completely unresponsive died from blunt
force trauma. So one of the changes that Universal has
now made is that the ride attendance will not be
allowed to help you get onto the ride if you
are unable to do it yourself.

Speaker 1 (52:53):
Here's what kind of sucks. No, not kind of sucks.
Here's what does suck. Now, people who are paralleled guys
who can't get up themselves and get on the ride
can no longer ride it. They're no longer able to
ride it. And this is because of this lawsuit, and
it's because of you know, all of the stuff that
led us to this point. They're like, well, you know,

(53:13):
we've got to make sure that we don't find ourselves
in the same position again. So if you can't physically
get up and get on the roller coaster, you can't
ride it anymore, which sucks for a lot of people.
That's that's kind of lame. But you know, I get
why they're doing it. I never thought for a second
that they were going to keep this thing closed down.
It's ridiculous. Way, Yeah, it's just it's not going to happen.

(53:37):
Ben Crump is a fantasists he's out there in looney
land with half of the stuff that he's running right
now in an attempt to squeeze and builk as much
money out of Universal as he can. That's exactly what
this guy has going on. Most of the people that
I've seen and said, look, I think anybody can agree
this was a horrible, tragic accident.

Speaker 4 (53:55):
But that's what it was.

Speaker 1 (53:56):
It wasn't some thing where this company was being negligent,
and it just was a terrible thing that happened unfortunately.

Speaker 10 (54:04):
Well, in juxtapose that with the other big case that
ben Crump had here in Orlando, which is the Tyree
Sampson case right where he fell off off of the
ride down at Icon Park. In that particular case, the
seat was loosened up or retrofitted to allow Tyree to

(54:24):
get on that ride, and it was not secure and
he fell.

Speaker 9 (54:28):
To his death.

Speaker 10 (54:29):
And so the two cases, I think, I'm sure from
the family standpoint, they thought, well, Benkrup was successful with
that case and this case is similar, if not the same.
But I think, you know, from a legal standpoint, it's
not the same in the sense that right nobody took
the time to loosen up the.

Speaker 9 (54:48):
Seat so that you know, Zabala could get on it.
I mean, there was no I don't know what do
you guys think. I mean, they're not the same.

Speaker 1 (54:55):
I agree with you wholeheartedly. And you know, one thing
we can do to see where people are at on this.
One thing we could do to see where people are
at on this and how they legitimately feel about this issue,
is they open it up today and right now there's
a three hour line to wait to get onto stardust Racers. Wow.
Now do we think that says something to me? It
says people don't really think this is some deadly crazy

(55:18):
roller coaster that there's a good chance that they're going
to die, unless we got another big problem on our hands, or.

Speaker 3 (55:22):
There's just some sadistic people that think, you know what,
it's going to be the ultimate thrill right.

Speaker 1 (55:27):
Now, Guys, when you guys said epic universe, I didn't
realize how epic it was over here. This is unbelievable.
I think that the whole thing is like pretty overblown
at the moment. But yeah, very interesting to see that
open back up today and there's a three hour line hours.

Speaker 9 (55:43):
Yeah, that's incredible.

Speaker 10 (55:44):
Yeah, and it opened up on Friday or Saturday evening rather,
and yeah, and I think similar numbers on Saturday evening
too when it opened up Sewan. And I'm sure you
know for Epic it was probably causing a downturn in
attendance because you know, people go to these parks and
they want the opportunity to write the rides. Do we
know when we go to these parks that sometimes the
ride shut down and you can't control that, But going

(56:05):
into the day knowing that the ride is shut down,
did that deter you from wanting to go?

Speaker 2 (56:09):
Probably it would.

Speaker 3 (56:10):
Deter me because I've been on the ride and it
was awesome. It was a really really great roller.

Speaker 9 (56:15):
Coast in the park. Yet, so so what is it?

Speaker 10 (56:18):
How would you compare the ride Sea Lane with like
maybe another coaster in town that you're like, it's similar
to what.

Speaker 3 (56:24):
Remember Dueling Dragons that used to be at Islands of
Adventure where there was there's two roller coasters, two different tracks,
and they're kind of you know, dueling around.

Speaker 1 (56:33):
In this case, start as racers.

Speaker 3 (56:34):
They're racing each other, and it's just a much more
high tech, more advanced.

Speaker 1 (56:40):
Like the newest and longer. Yeah, a little bit.

Speaker 3 (56:44):
But the newest roller coaster technology possible, another kind of
incarnation of that.

Speaker 1 (56:48):
It's fast.

Speaker 3 (56:49):
I found it to be very smooth, and but it's
just yeah, another dueling coaster, very fun.

Speaker 2 (56:56):
I would recommend a.

Speaker 1 (56:57):
Lot of people would. I haven't heard anything but good
things said. There's one bad review now, but I mean
I hadn't heard many bad things about it before this,
anything else grabbing your attention out there.

Speaker 10 (57:06):
Well, just so you guys were having some issues right
now with the beaches. Anybody, any of your listeners who
live along the coast knows that there's almost no beach
right now, just because the we're actually what's called a
king tide, which is where you know, the moon, the
moon impacts our tides, and so the relationship to the
moon in the sun right now is creating almost no beach.
And so you know, millions and millions of dollars are

(57:28):
spent on beach renourishment, not only here in central Florida,
but all along the coast. I don't know if you
guys saw the video of the houses going out into
the ocean and hatteras part of that happened because they
refuse to renourish the beaches there. They were like it's
a waste of money and we're not going to spend
millions of dollars doing that.

Speaker 9 (57:45):
Is it a waste of money?

Speaker 10 (57:46):
We're going to be talking about it just because we
are seeing the sand go out, and you know, there's
I don't know, like is that a good use of
taxpayer dollars?

Speaker 2 (57:54):
It doesn't jump a bunch of sand there not too
long ago.

Speaker 10 (57:57):
Yeah they did, And so what they do, Yeah, they
dredge it out in the ocean, they bring it in,
they dump it on the sand.

Speaker 9 (58:03):
You know, we saw it after Hurricane of Cole. I
guess was that two years ago?

Speaker 10 (58:07):
Hurricane of Cole, and some of those houses and will
we're by the sea quite literally just went out, you know,
fell right off the sand and into the ocean.

Speaker 9 (58:14):
And so they're trying to prevent that from happening. But
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (58:17):
I feel when I when I hear things like this,
and I know this is like kind of rude to
certain people, but I really care. I feel like this
is the equivalent of building a house in the middle
of the interstate and then getting surprised when there's cars
whizzing around you. Like you build a house in a
place where it doesn't have a long lifespan, Okay, and
then afterwards you're like, well, we got to we've got

(58:39):
to build all this up. We've got to make sure
that this it just sometimes it just doesn't make sense
to me. I don't really understand what the thought process
is there. But I mean, you can't really fight back
against nature in some of these ways. But I guess
we're gonna try it. I guess we're gonna spend.

Speaker 10 (58:54):
Much of some some places are trying, and some are saying,
we're not going to waste our money.

Speaker 9 (58:57):
So it's a hot topic right now. And if you
just pull up.

Speaker 10 (59:00):
Any beach camera, you'll see there's almost there's like virtually
no beach right now.

Speaker 9 (59:04):
It's like no walking on the beach today.

Speaker 1 (59:06):
Yeah, all right, all right, well I'll stay away from
the beach just for today. Then she's the best of
the best. She's probably gonna go watch the Ed Greenes
story now and I am. And then when she gets
to a couple of the scenes, yeah, don't eat, do
not eat. Okay, do not eat while you're watching this,
Amy Kaufelt, she text you, guys, she's the best of

(59:27):
the best. We love her and you're going to too.
If you've never watched Good Day Orlando, what's going on
in your world? I call you to do this and
it's the best way to start your day. Everybody out
there who's listening to this, no matter where you are,
I want you to follow Amy Coffe up on all
social media platforms because she's the best and we love her.
Amy Coffin, you too, There she goes. Sounded great in

(59:50):
your new studio, by the way, or at least time
your studio for now. When we come back, we'll get
it to some other reactions. Over the weekend, I got
a couple of emails that we got to hit on.
We'll see what was happening at this whole press conference
about the roller coaster. There's a lot to do in
a short amount of time to do well. We've got
plenty of time, don't we. We'll make it all happen
in worthwhile. That's coming up next in the News Junkie

(01:00:29):
Tips Tips at the news Junkie dot com. Beck's emails
the show about the Read comedy Fest. That's that comedy
festival that was going down in Saudi Arabia. I don't
know if it's over. It might be over by now.
It went on for a couple of weeks and stirred
up a lot of controversy. We talked about it on
the show High News Junkie. The Comedy Fest has been
a hot topic lately, but I just wanted to mention

(01:00:50):
that a lot of comedians have performed and toured in
cities like the UAE, United Arab Emirates before Dave Chappelle,
Andrew Schultz, etc. Uh and gotten away with joking about
the topics that are now restricted in the comedy Festival.
Andrew Schulz has some clips on YouTube where he jokes
about the culture, which I thought were pretty funny, and
he's still alive for now. I understand the fest is

(01:01:13):
different circumstances since they were invited by the country of
Saudi Arabia, but if they performed there before on their
own core accord, why wouldn't they do it again with
a bigger paycheck? Anyway, Love the show, Becks, Thank you Becks. Also,
it was like for so many people just about really
the paycheck, like I saw, and to his credit, he's
doing the biggest balls doing this. The idea that Pete Davidson,

(01:01:35):
whose dad died in nine to eleven is going to
Saudi Arabia for a paycheck. Is you know, there's there's
some things there to consider and think about. But he
even said Pete Davidson when he was talking about this,
he was like, I hear people talking about it, and
I go, yeah, you know, that's fair, that's a fair point.

Speaker 4 (01:01:50):
And then I hear how much money they're willing to
pay me.

Speaker 1 (01:01:52):
I'm like, all right, see you later on the on
the plane to Yeah, see you later.

Speaker 4 (01:01:58):
So thank you for that.

Speaker 1 (01:01:59):
Over it Christopher who says the monster ed guyin or
Geen show on Netflix, he goes, you got to see
how they portray his voice versus how he really sounded. Otherwise,
it's a delightful Ryan Murphy production. So far, sir, so
far you concern me just as much as Courtney concerns
me by saying things like that ed Geen series, the

(01:02:22):
top one on Netflix right now, is delightful. There is
nothing delightful about a man who keeps women's sexual organs
in a drawer in his house. There is nothing delightful about,
like a lot of the things that happen in that
movie A couple. There is nothing delightful about at risk

(01:02:43):
of spoiling something. A man who gets into fornicating with corpses,
then telling his real life girlfriend that she has to
get into an ice bath because her body is too
warm when they're attempting to make love. He likes, I'm
a bit colder now days. Nothing delightful about that. That
was the That's that shook me.

Speaker 2 (01:03:05):
That a particular part that you did not reference for
the sake of not spoiling. And then there's some parts
where I'm like, Charlie looks hot and lansay, he's got.

Speaker 1 (01:03:18):
A tight Well. You know what's crazy to me. There's
a woman who plays this horrific killer's girlfriend who also
happens to be into this insane stuff he's doing. And
she was a real person. Her name is Adeline Watkins.
And boy, did Adeline Watkins get the most friendly casting

(01:03:40):
I have ever seen in my life. Yeah, because Cordy
was like, oh, I want to see what this person
really looks like. This is the actual woman that was
with the murderer, and then the woman who was cast
in the role.

Speaker 2 (01:03:55):
Bangs make sense.

Speaker 1 (01:03:56):
I hope that one day, if they ever do the
Sean Watson story, that I get this friendly of casting
folks because she is, you know, not a looker necessarily
the actual person. And then there's a perfectly attractive woman
who they have play the role of her in this film,
very very kind, very gentle. The guy who plays ed

(01:04:17):
Gen kind of looks like him, though he kind of they.

Speaker 2 (01:04:20):
Gan was that cut when he took his shirt off.

Speaker 1 (01:04:23):
But maybe maybe he's like a little bit more in
shape and a little better looking. But he's like, I
think he looks like him.

Speaker 2 (01:04:32):
You know, I want to give a couple of days
for people to watch the whole thing, but you know,
it involves it later on because when it comes to
ed Green, and I think anyone that was watching it,
you start to search on Google to see what is
fictionalized and what's real and what he inspired, both in
Hollywood and with other serial killers. And then I found

(01:04:54):
myself googling something I never thought I would, which is
first name, last name Boobs, Which turns.

Speaker 1 (01:05:03):
Out, Yeah, this guy you've probably never heard of. His name,
the guy who's in this Netflix series about all of
his murderers. It's the number one show on Netflix right now.
He apparently inspired Psycho, he apparently inspired the Texas chainsaw massacre,
and she i mean like I think it does Ms

(01:05:25):
Buffalo Bill, Silence of the Lambs. I go like, this
dude was like the genesis for a lot of early
horror movies. They took him, here's here he is versus
the actor who played him. I think it's pretty you know,
it's like that makes sense. They kind of look like
one another.

Speaker 2 (01:05:41):
These two very dead in the eyes, even in a
black and white photo, and.

Speaker 1 (01:05:47):
I think they look similar enough. But the girlfriend is like,
not even in the same ballpark. What do you call it? Things?
Where is that a neckerchief? I would call it an ascot,
but that's probably scott. I don't know what an ascot
actually a ceiling, so I could be wrong about that,
but I would say, askot.

Speaker 3 (01:06:03):
Looks like one of those Scout things like didn't didn't
you have those and wee blows or something?

Speaker 1 (01:06:07):
Yes, yeah, yeah, back in the day or still for
some of you, depending you know where you're at in
your life. But a lot of people hated out there
shout out current we blow. It's tough times. People are
saying this is terrible, this is outrageous. And I do
think there's a very interesting conversation about series like this
Netflix one to have, and that conversation is, should we

(01:06:28):
really be making these stories and almost in a way
glamorize what happened with these people? I think it does. Yeah,
I mean I think it's like, of course they were,
so why are we making series about them? Why why
don't we choose these people and turn them into these

(01:06:49):
legendary characters even more so than they otherwise were. Especially
this guy, I don't know, it's just like he was
so gross and so bad that it seems seems even
worse to take this and make a bunch of money.

Speaker 2 (01:07:02):
Off of it to me, and was in his first rodeo.

Speaker 1 (01:07:05):
There are certain people you wouldn't do this with, Like
I don't think they would do this with the toy
box killer.

Speaker 4 (01:07:09):
I don't think that they would do this with some
of these other.

Speaker 1 (01:07:11):
People, because they're so disgusting that you would feel bad
glamorizing them, or at least just like doing them the
service of portraying them as infamous on the big screen
of the small screen. But will take your thoughts on
that as well over at the Newsjunkie dot Com. Want
me come back the next episode with Sabrina? What's coming
up on the next step episode.

Speaker 2 (01:07:31):
But on the next steppisode, this country is divided, so
the only thing obviously to bring us together is sexy,
oily slow motion reboots. If you know what I'm talking about.
Taylor Taylor, Taylor and all the updates on the life
of a filthy rich showgirl and her fiance's penis. Plus

(01:07:52):
Ike Turner changes his name to Ike turned Junior because
his big wheels stopped turning.

Speaker 1 (01:07:58):
All that so much more coming up episode and that
is coming up next. In the news Junkie, we were

(01:08:21):
talking about Mark Sanchez, that's the NFL commentator guy, and
right as we were talking about it, the news came
in that he is now facing a felony charge for
his role in this altercation that led to him being stabbed.
All right, so not even just what they first said

(01:08:42):
was that it was going to be a misdemeanor charger
two and that he was going to be held accountable
for this incident that started with him being a victim
and he was stabbed, And it's like, nope, we're flipping
that around now. Not only is it a misdemeanor, but
he's facing felony charges in a couple of years behind bars,
potentially it won the.

Speaker 3 (01:09:00):
Six is the the the norm for that, so I
don't know if he even keeps his job.

Speaker 1 (01:09:06):
But look what a roller coaster ride this has been
from like, oh, no, thoughts and prayers for this NFL
announcer Mark Sanchez. He was stabbed in an attack and
he might die and like, no, he's pulling through. He's
doing better, you guys, your thoughts and prayers are working,
and like, ho, hold on, actually we think he might
have done something to deserve the stabbing. And then hold on, no, no, no.
A misdemeanor charge and now a felony charge for this guy.

(01:09:29):
Just an awkward weekend for mister Mark Sanchez. Parted a
little too hard, flew a little too close to the sun.

Speaker 4 (01:09:34):
Let's do it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:35):
Here we go, Let's do the next episode.

Speaker 11 (01:09:39):
Because there's a lot on TV and you can't possibly
keep up with all of it, even though you should,
because what else are you going to talk about?

Speaker 1 (01:09:44):
Hey, that's got through big back. It's time for the
next episode with Sabrina. Hey, smoke, hold up.

Speaker 2 (01:10:01):
The next episode brought to you by that mortgage guy Don,
That mortgage guy Don dot com and of course the
On Loans radio show. It is your time perhaps to
buy yourself a first dream home, or refinance that beautiful
home you already own, look into reverse mortgages or he locks,
or get cash out and start a business, work expanding

(01:10:22):
the one you have. Everything. That can be very confusing
if you're doing it on your own, but when you're
working with that mortgage guy Don, it is a breeze
because he's an expert, but he's also your buddy and
he's looking out for you. So start the process today
by going to that mortgage guy Don dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:10:38):
Don't miss the voco.

Speaker 2 (01:10:41):
Mortgage guy dot com. Twenty five years ago, the original one.

Speaker 1 (01:10:50):
Of these, Yeah CSI, that's right, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:10:56):
Damn it. I was trying to do a whole the
ratio cane rips off glasses line.

Speaker 1 (01:11:00):
This was a catastrophe.

Speaker 2 (01:11:01):
It turns out those are pretty stuck in my head
with the headphones? Am I right?

Speaker 1 (01:11:07):
With such?

Speaker 2 (01:11:09):
You know it doesn't have headphones on every time? But yeah,
it was twenty five years ago on this day, premiered
on CBS set and of course, uh and how did
the announcer say it Last Vegas, Last Vegas? And it
featured the Who as the theme song. That was the
theme song.

Speaker 1 (01:11:27):
Too.

Speaker 2 (01:11:27):
In my opinion, the best CSI CSI Miami and bab
O'Reilly was the theme for New York I can see
for Miles was user CSI Cyber and then all of
them went away.

Speaker 3 (01:11:39):
Baba O'Reilly also the theme song for the wildly, wildly
acclaimed Ice Panda.

Speaker 1 (01:11:45):
Oh yeah, of course.

Speaker 2 (01:11:48):
And someone is now up there in the sky with
Ice Panda. Or did I spend we killed Okay, I'm sorry.
This person is dead and meeting his mom and Adam,
And that is Ike Turner Junior.

Speaker 4 (01:12:03):
Oh wouldn't have got that.

Speaker 2 (01:12:05):
Tina and Ike Turner's son has died at the age
of sixty seven, has been confirmed over the weekend. The
musician's niece, Jacqueline Bulk, told TMZ that Turner Junior had
died on October fourth and LA, just one day after
his birthday.

Speaker 1 (01:12:21):
Oh no, I mean party too hard on.

Speaker 2 (01:12:25):
His birth I don't know or just it worked out
time wise.

Speaker 3 (01:12:28):
I was randomly listening to Tina Turner before I saw
that news.

Speaker 2 (01:12:31):
Did you kill him?

Speaker 4 (01:12:32):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:12:33):
The musician had suffered from kidney failure after several years
of ill health. His niece also said that he had
struggled with heart problems and had a stroke last month.
So it's kind of just a mix of everything.

Speaker 4 (01:12:43):
Yeah, yeah, that'll do it.

Speaker 2 (01:12:44):
But he's soon, haven't no, I think? And he largely
sit away from the spotlight despite the fame of his parents,
and lost his father Ike in two thousand and seven,
followed by Tina in twenty twenty three. So there you
have it. Now we have someone who's alive and just
diving headfirst into a pile of money.

Speaker 1 (01:13:08):
Taylor Swift. Oh yes, she made a lot this weekend
at the box office.

Speaker 2 (01:13:12):
Life of a showgirl is nice. According to these numbers.
As said previously, she is racking up some streaming records.
The album released theatrical event won the box office fifty
cent was psyched to get a shout out on the album.

Speaker 1 (01:13:28):
Oh cool, good for him.

Speaker 2 (01:13:31):
They say. Within twelve hours of the release, it had
been streamed more than any other album on Spotify this year.
Mild Car the song the fato Ophelia became the most
stream song in a single day in Spotify history. Show
Girl also broke the twenty twenty five single day streaming
record on Apple Music and over at Amazon. It's now
the most stream album ever in a single day The

(01:13:52):
album sold two point seven million copies on day one?

Speaker 1 (01:13:56):
How's it doing on iHeartRadio?

Speaker 2 (01:13:57):
You know what great question I can tell you right
now now it is free right there on the following
your hand. You could set the preset to the album
if you want. Right after our show of course in
real radio downloaded today as we Love You. Taylor was
also dominating the box office thirty three million in the theaters.

(01:14:17):
She's now the only female artist who sell one hundred
million albums. And that was I guess it's gonna keep
happening for.

Speaker 1 (01:14:26):
The By the way, by the way, real quick, what
do you think what percentage, speaking of like demographics and stuff,
what percentage of the audience for the Taylor Swift movie
this weekend you think was female?

Speaker 4 (01:14:37):
What percentage?

Speaker 1 (01:14:38):
Eighty five eighty ninety seven, eighty eight percent was women?
And of that sixty one percent women eighteen to thirty four, which, honestly,
I was kind of surprised by. I was like, how
does she like she keeps that demographic even though isn't
Taylor Swift not in the eighteen to thirty four demograp anymore?

Speaker 2 (01:15:01):
I think she just turned thirty four.

Speaker 1 (01:15:03):
Yeah, so she's like if if she is, she's barely
in anymore. She keeps her audience young, like that seventy
white people, two percent people Black people did not want
to go see the Taylor Swift thing this weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:15:16):
Well, all the people will not be able to spend
even more money on a tour because she has already
ruled that out. She is not going out on tour
anytime soon. She says, I am so tired, so on
a blamer feel. Yeah, when I think about doing it again,
I get even more tired.

Speaker 3 (01:15:32):
I mean she she recorded this album while she was
on the Eras.

Speaker 2 (01:15:35):
Tour exactly, and then got engaged. And she even had
time to write and record the song all about her
fiance's penis Yeap the Life of a Showgirl. On the
new album, she may have dropped an Easter egg plant
hidden Gemitalia. They're saying the song would about Tavis Kelsey's

(01:16:03):
flush flute. All right, giant flesh flute. So let's go
ahead and read the lyrics here. Forgive me, it sounds cocky.
He he amazed me a mass a matte desires me
and opened my eyes. Redwood tree ain't heart to see

(01:16:23):
His love was the key that opened my thighs.

Speaker 1 (01:16:27):
Oh all right, girls, I.

Speaker 2 (01:16:29):
Don't need to catch the bouquet to know a hard
rock is on the way. And baby, I'll admit I've
been a little superstitious. The curse on me was broken
by your magic wand I'll give you one more. Seems
to be that you and me we make our own
luck new heights of manhood. I ain't got a knock
on wood. Is this is all about his dog or what?

Speaker 12 (01:16:52):
All right?

Speaker 3 (01:16:52):
I think the general consensus is that the song seems
to be about his dog.

Speaker 2 (01:16:57):
Wood is two minutes and thirty seconds long, two hundred
and thirty millimeters equals nine inches. Wood is song number
nine on the album.

Speaker 4 (01:17:06):
Okay, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:17:07):
I mean that I'm not doing this math. I'm just
reading what the article says that Taylor Swift is writing
the song Musically, She's like, no, it has to stop
now because he's nine inches, So like we I want
it to be a three minut and thirty second song,
but I'm not that lucky.

Speaker 2 (01:17:20):
All right, So there you have it. Congratulations to the
happy couple and all the sects they're having on the
boob tube. We have got the following Monday Night Football Baby,
the Jags and the Chiefs, the one hour special Born
Lucky with Leland Old.

Speaker 3 (01:17:38):
Nine inch to Travis Kelsey right right off field.

Speaker 2 (01:17:41):
There, look what you made him do. The voice on
NBC named that tune Celebrity Weakest Link, Brilliant Minds and
you can catch Taylor Swift on fallon follow your Dreams
of Me on Instagram at Sabrina Ambro most importantly say
it with me America.

Speaker 1 (01:17:56):
Smokey, Thank you, Sabrina. And one of the things that
was interesting to me this weekend when they were saying
Taylor Swift number one album in the country, number one
movie in the country, they said somebody else was very
close but didn't.

Speaker 4 (01:18:10):
Quite get there.

Speaker 1 (01:18:11):
I guess Prince with Purple Rain didn't get to achieve that.
In fact, I don't know that anybody's ever done before.
I think it might have been the first time anybody's
ever had the number one movie in the country and
the number one album in the country. You gotta salute
her ability to monetize that audience.

Speaker 4 (01:18:29):
She knows what she's doing on that front. At the
very least.

Speaker 1 (01:18:32):
Okay, we'll see what you think about all of this
and so much more. We also got to talk about
at some point this judge whose house was burned down
over the weekend. But they don't know yet, like what
happened or why the house caught fire, or if it
was an arson because of political stuff. But there's a
lot of question marks around that. We'll get down to

(01:18:54):
some of the best answers we can find, and a
whole lot more on the way. It's all coming up next,
and then to use junk key. First things first, what

(01:19:18):
I'm about to tell you is a m at or
most accurate take. All right, this is just one hundred
percent true. Whether you disagree or not. You could be
a little baby and create a puddle of pee and
whine about it, but I'm just right about this. Now,
I'll start with the good side of this and then
over to the bad side of this. The good side

(01:19:39):
of this is something I saw with my own eyes
at a spot called Luke's, a restaurant called Lukes this weekend.

Speaker 4 (01:19:46):
Nice little spot.

Speaker 1 (01:19:46):
They got all kinds of good food, beautiful restaurant fans
over there, I believe in the kitchen who have been
nice many times as I've been there. And at Lukes
you walk into this huge, huge, gorgeous door. And then
there's like a reception area of the restaurant right as
you walk through, and I see on a small bench

(01:20:07):
in this reception area is what I believe to be
a new mother. She has a child with her who
is all of maybe a month old or maybe two
months or something. It's a little baby. I mean, it's
the size of a small watermelon or something any big.
And she is sitting there patiently taking care of her baby,

(01:20:28):
trying to calm her baby and burp her baby. And
she's pulled her baby away from the table to give
the child the attention that it needed in the situation,
and also be polite to the fellow diners at the restaurant.
And I remember walking by looking and I'm going, man,
it's amazing.

Speaker 4 (01:20:46):
This lady just had this child.

Speaker 1 (01:20:47):
Here. She is out here taking care of this baby,
doing the right thing. But the news it's always there.
It's unrelenting. And when I got back, I see that
there's yet another story like this case. It is a
woman who thinks that she wasn't in the wrong at all,
but boy, oh boy, was the woman in the wrong.

(01:21:08):
This woman said that her baby that was apparently crying
NonStop her eight month old daughter at the top of
her lungs in this restaurant. She goes too bad, Just
deal with it. It's not a big deal. It's a baby.
What do you want from me?

Speaker 4 (01:21:25):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (01:21:26):
And this woman basically said the people who were upset
and complaining about her child crying at the restaurant, those
were the baddies in this situation. And I will tell
you most accurate take ever. No, you are being an asshole,
all right. You are being the dumb one in this
arrangement here. I didn't agree with you to have some

(01:21:47):
sort of baby together, all right. You decided to have
a baby on your own. And when you bring that
baby in public to a restaurant or anywhere else and
it starts screaming at the top of its lungs, you
have to do everything within your power to make sure
you're not being obnoxio via that child to everybody in
the restaurant. I did the same thing when Dylan with
a little baby, we bring them around somewhere and you

(01:22:07):
start crying in the middle of the restaurant.

Speaker 4 (01:22:09):
You do the right thing. You pick up the.

Speaker 1 (01:22:11):
Child, you go outside, you go into like an area.
Like the woman in the reception area. You do all
of these things, okay, because that's the right thing to do.
This woman's baby is screaming, blood curdling screams at the
top of its lungs, and the mom's like, stop complaining.
It's a baby. What do you expect. It's a baby.

(01:22:31):
Just deal with it, she says, And this somehow went
all the way to the Atlanta headlines and local news.
Here's the story. What am I missing here? Because this
woman seems so very in the wrong to make.

Speaker 13 (01:22:44):
Watching a viral video that captured two customers going at it,
thousands are weighing in when a customer told a Henry
County mother to leave if she couldn't keep her infant quiet.
Yes to Tom Jones, is life and McDonough Tom, people
have opinions about this one.

Speaker 1 (01:23:00):
Opinions, Tom, Yes, they do, of course they do. Some
of them are bad. See, And I don't want you
to feel like you're catching strays on this, you know,
I'm sure you you guys do great when you take
Jackson out somewhere, mostly if you even take them out there,
Like would you would you just take Jackson out to
a restaurant.

Speaker 4 (01:23:14):
With the y you guys.

Speaker 7 (01:23:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:23:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:23:16):
We we went a couple of weeks ago to a
brunch spot downtown, one that I hadn't been to yet,
and we have this, uh if they don't have high chairs,
we have this device called the lobster that you've not
heard of.

Speaker 1 (01:23:31):
This I keep it in the car. And so you
attach it to.

Speaker 3 (01:23:36):
The table you're sitting at with two giant clamps. You
screw them on so that they're like nice and tight,
and then the baby just sits in it like it's
a chair that's attached to the to the table.

Speaker 2 (01:23:48):
Remember there's cup holders that you've had a long time ago.
You would just clip uh huh. Imagine just putting a
baby inside of that.

Speaker 4 (01:23:55):
It's kind of like that.

Speaker 1 (01:23:56):
And if Jackson's in this lobster and he just starts, ah,
you know, crying at the top of his lungs, do
you take the tact that this lady took of a baby.
You start getting hammered. It's a baby, It's gonna cry. God,
what are you guys complaining about.

Speaker 3 (01:24:12):
No, No, we usually come prepared with plenty of plenty
of distractions.

Speaker 1 (01:24:22):
But the thing for me is like this idea that
your problems should be thrust on everybody around you is
something that people believe that I think needs to be eradicated.

Speaker 4 (01:24:30):
It's craziness, all right.

Speaker 1 (01:24:32):
Everybody else who's going to launch or dinner or whatever
deserves to have an enjoyable meal. And if you want
to bring your kid there, then it's on you to
make sure that, like everything's working out.

Speaker 2 (01:24:44):
And that's why they have restaurants now that don't allow kids. Sure,
yeah there's uproar about that, but it's like, yeah, sometimes
other people don't want to hear the screaming baby a
long period.

Speaker 1 (01:24:56):
I want to clarify though, If you're sitting there with
your baby at the table and your baby cries like
once or twice, who cares, No big deal, No big deal,
I got it. It's like on a plane, when your
kid cries plane, his ears are hurting, going up and
the pressure is hitting him.

Speaker 4 (01:25:11):
It's all good, all good.

Speaker 1 (01:25:13):
But when your baby is just non stop crying, you're like, well,
what am I gonna do?

Speaker 4 (01:25:16):
It's a child. No, it's your child, is what it is. Bitch.

Speaker 1 (01:25:20):
It's your kid, not everybody else is in this restaurant.
We shouldn't have to deal with it. I just bring
in some screeching smoke alarm with me and be like, well,
you know, I like to bring the smoke alarm. I'm
sorry if it's bothering you right now. I guess they
got this on video. Oh yes they do.

Speaker 14 (01:25:38):
Tom John at the restaurant Paris bone me here b
Whittaker decided to bring her up.

Speaker 1 (01:25:47):
I saw it immediately used to be a pizza hut.
You cannot hide an old pizza hut. Can You cannot
hide the shape of these places? They all turned into something?
This one is this? I can't read it. I can't
read with the name of the place is something by me?
Is it? Uh? It's a parispond me. Parispond me is
the name of the place?

Speaker 14 (01:26:07):
Lunch Well, Montana decided to exercise her vocal chords, and
what happened next has thousands of people exercising their vocal
cords with their opinions.

Speaker 6 (01:26:20):
Okay, gentlemen, here is telling me to tell my eight
months old to stop screaming.

Speaker 2 (01:26:29):
Crying. It's the side.

Speaker 1 (01:26:32):
It's what I'm sure se Leyden has been through where
your kid just discovers he has a voice.

Speaker 3 (01:26:38):
Jackson is actually beginning to discover volume like his volume
and the.

Speaker 1 (01:26:43):
Kid is naturally playing with that, which is that's fine,
that's what little kids doing, and you shouldn't discourage your
child from doing that in some ways, but you shouldn't
think that everybody else in a restaurant just has to
deal with it. That's craziness. That's crazy. This is the
ideology that suggests that you could just crash through life
and everybody around you be damn, you're the main character.

(01:27:06):
What are you even complaining about?

Speaker 4 (01:27:08):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:27:08):
Sorry, did I make your day worse and more annoying?
Too bad? Put up with me?

Speaker 14 (01:27:12):
That's what Between the Whittaker, her eight month old baby Montana,
and the customer at Paris Bun Me, Get Up Run
has stir it up a debate once again about bavid
behavior when dining out. The customer told Whittaker Montana's screaming
was hurting his sensitive ears and they need to learn
to be respectful and leave.

Speaker 1 (01:27:35):
She's a child, Yes she is. She's a child, and
that's why it's not her fault. It's yours. Yours, because
you're the adult that brought her here. She is just
a cute little girl doing cute little girl things. But
not everybody else wants to hear the noise coming out
of this little hellion that you've brought on with with you,

(01:27:56):
and I think this guy is totally in the right
to say this. This is like this, and she video that.
I guess you must be the one.

Speaker 14 (01:28:02):
Whittaker told me she and her baby had a right
to eat out like everyone else.

Speaker 2 (01:28:07):
I'm telling people like you can leave. I don't have
to leave.

Speaker 9 (01:28:09):
If you have a problem with it, you can leave.

Speaker 14 (01:28:11):
A manager eventually came over and the customer left. Whittaker
shared the encounter on social media, and on one post
it has nearly eight hundred thousand likes nearly fifty thousand comments.
One person said, of baby screaming is annoying.

Speaker 1 (01:28:26):
Yeah, yes, all right, normal people on TikTok. It's a child,
but unpopular opinion that's annoying. I wouldn't have said anything,
grabbed my belongings and rolled out. It's a child, she
can't help it. Wait, hold on, I don't even I
can't even tell what side this person's on. It's a child,
but unpopular opinion, that's annoying. I wouldn't have said anything.
I would have grabbed my belongings, rolled out, it's a child.

(01:28:48):
She can't help it. Well, of course the child can't
help it, but the adult should be in charge and
pick up the child and go, hey, this is obnoxious
to everybody else here.

Speaker 4 (01:28:56):
TikTok. Let me down again. Maybe somebody else has a
better take. Let's see what.

Speaker 1 (01:28:59):
Else I don't want to hear a baby screaming. Many
other commenters said, it's a baby, and it's a public place.
That's the cinema, I got a park. No, she's a baby.

Speaker 9 (01:29:13):
You have no control over that. It's a baby.

Speaker 14 (01:29:15):
Whittaker continues to believe her baby has a right to
dine out like anyone else.

Speaker 1 (01:29:20):
No parent, no kids, you feel like they're not they
don't belong because of another customer. Okay, so she said,
no parents should feel like they don't belong because somebody's
complaining about this. I one hundred percent side with the
guy complaining. One hundred percent. You're not allowed to annoying
up every place that you occupy because of your decisions
to get impregnated and have a child. You don't thrust

(01:29:42):
that decision and the things that follow onto everybody else
around you, and every parent should be that way. They
should go, Okay, what's going on here? Is my child
being annoying to every other person who's just trying to
have a nice time. If they answer is yes, get up,
take your kid out, Calm them down a little bit
it get them to just relax and then go back

(01:30:03):
inside or go back to eating or whatever you were doing.
And if you can't get them calmed down, if the
kid just wants to make noise all the time, get
your food to go and get the hell out of there.
I don't like the idea that like, you have the
right to annoy everybody around you. To hell with you
for wanting some sort of peaceful experience in public. But
let us know what you think. Send us a dispatch
or email tips at the Newsjunkie dot com.

Speaker 4 (01:30:24):
T I P.

Speaker 1 (01:30:25):
S at thenewsjunkie dot com. All right, let's see what
we have real quick. We can work in one or
two dispatches. I don't think we've done any yet, which
I feel horrific about. I do, let's go do. I'm
not a hippie talking about Taylor Swift. Nope, try a
yant Swift.

Speaker 15 (01:30:41):
Eminem had the number one album, the number one single,
and the number one movie all at the same time.
Back when it comes to numbers, it's hard to compete
with Eminem.

Speaker 12 (01:30:52):
But Taylor Swift, that's.

Speaker 1 (01:30:54):
A great fee shout out in t Swift out. Is
that true? I mean, that's a good it's a good
chance that that's true.

Speaker 4 (01:31:00):
Like when eight Mile came out, if he had to
was she.

Speaker 2 (01:31:02):
Only got the move for the weekend, right, so.

Speaker 1 (01:31:04):
Yeah for three days? Yeah? No, no, this was just
like a limited engagement thing where she pops the movie out.
Everybody goes to see the movie and it's already gone.
It's already completely gone out of the theaters. Seems to
be true. Jay's out number one.

Speaker 3 (01:31:21):
Yeah, Eminem is the only person who has Simon Teou
simultaneously held the number one position for a movie, an album,
and a single at the same time. In November two
thousand and two, when eight Mile opened at number one
at the box office, the album eight Mile Music from
and Inspired By the motion picture top the chart and
Lose Yourself reach number one on the Hot one hundred.

Speaker 1 (01:31:40):
Oh man, the song is still so good too, swee.

Speaker 3 (01:31:45):
Yeah, it's not my favorite Eminem song, but I guess
it's like the one for him because that's the one
he like closes shows with.

Speaker 4 (01:31:53):
Yeah, for at least when I saw I.

Speaker 1 (01:31:54):
Would listen to that on my headphones before I confronted
the lady with the screaming baby, like I would get
fired up as I'm gonna go over there. I'm not
gonna mom spaghetti this. I really got to keep it together.
Let us know what you think. One more here here's
oz Man talking about ed Gean in this Netflix, very
very very dark horror series about his life.

Speaker 12 (01:32:16):
He Maybe it's just me, but I always thought that
ed Dean was like a commonly known name, like Jeffrey
Dahmer in that scene.

Speaker 1 (01:32:27):
I don't think so.

Speaker 12 (01:32:28):
I remember first learning about him when I was like
ten or so.

Speaker 1 (01:32:34):
Brow Now, so why were you learning about this at ten? Yeah?
Tell me more. Mom and dad are like, it's time
for the sit down. Oh, we're gonna talk about the was.

Speaker 2 (01:32:45):
On your PlayStation. We're gonna talk about the serial killer
wars Mom's space.

Speaker 3 (01:32:49):
I mean, I had never heard of him, but it
seems like a lot of things were inspired by him,
So people knew, like somebody I think in the texting
service or something said blind Melon one of their songs
about ed Geen.

Speaker 1 (01:33:01):
Oh yeah, and then obviously.

Speaker 2 (01:33:02):
The first serial killer or you know, of notoriety at
that point.

Speaker 1 (01:33:09):
Yeah, vibe.

Speaker 2 (01:33:10):
It's like he's the one who walks everyone else good wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:33:14):
I think what they were kind of getting at was
like this was an explosion of horror movies at this time,
and so they were looking for somebody to reference, and
so there was an actual human person that did this
terrible stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:33:26):
So they made them all.

Speaker 1 (01:33:27):
But you know what they made look bad Alfred Hitchcock.
They made Alfred Hitchcock into like a gross like you know,
nobody liked him. He was nasty kind of guy. Really,
Oh yeah, like he went to the theaters and was
trying to see like how people were receiving his movie.
And they also when they when they showed Alfred Hitchcock

(01:33:50):
in this series and they show him premiering Psycho when
it came out, I thought to myself, I was like,
I don't think that's true. I don't think what they're
doing here is true. Because in the movie they show
within this docu series that version of Psycho, the woman
is like naked and exposed all over the place. And
I'm pretty sure in the Psycho shower scene there's not

(01:34:12):
even any nudity. There wasn't like any nudity, even though
it was in a shower. It was Chuckolic's syrup. Yeah,
but at that time, like nudity was a no go
in movies. You wouldn't be able to do this stuff
that you do now. You could have gone to jail
for doing some of the stuff that you do now
back at the time, so I didn't even think showed muy. Yeah,
like terrifier would be like lock them up and throw

(01:34:34):
away the keys if you did this. So I think
they kind of got that wrong. But Ozman learned this
at ten years old.

Speaker 4 (01:34:40):
I guess.

Speaker 1 (01:34:40):
Okay, glad to hear it. Thank you, you really distracted us. Congratulations, buddy.
I don't know what to say about that. I'm just
going to leave it to you, all right, thank you
for your message. When we come back, we'll get to
a man who got a text message and lost thousands
and thousands of dollars and say goodbye. It may have

(01:35:03):
been part of your childhood, but it is rip and
no more.

Speaker 3 (01:35:07):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:35:07):
What is it that is coming up next on the
news junkie defense of gen Z real quick. I had

(01:35:30):
to do that after seeing this story in the New
York Times this weekend. This is going to poison all
of the old o's that read the New York Times. Okay,
they're gonna think even worse things about gen Z. And
I try to be the person who can connect the generations,
all right. I'm trying to connect gen X in the
Zoomers or the boomers and the Zoomers or the millennials

(01:35:52):
and these other you know whatever, who whoever's connecting, I'm
trying to connect them together. This ain't helping because the
New York Times did this story this weekend and it says,
what does gen Z divorce look like? Okay, fine, I'm
gonna do a story about gen Z and how they
get divorced.

Speaker 4 (01:36:08):
YadA, YadA, YadA.

Speaker 1 (01:36:09):
Okay, fine, And it says, for one thing, speed is
of the essence. Okay, so gen Zers like to get
divorce fast when they divorce. Okay, you got some old
oh reading this, right, And the problem is, this is
what old people are going to think of gen Z,
all right, And this is insanity. This is not gen Z.

(01:36:32):
I have to defend them.

Speaker 4 (01:36:34):
Here's how.

Speaker 1 (01:36:34):
This is just two paragraphs in this article from the
New York Times this weekend, it says, in twenty twenty one,
Kira Benson, a violinist living in Seattle, knew it was
time to get a divorce, ending their two year lavender marriage. Okay,
we can pause there. What's a lavender marriage? I've never
heard of.

Speaker 3 (01:36:53):
This is that the gift you're supposed to get for
the second anniversary?

Speaker 1 (01:36:57):
Maybe maybe it is.

Speaker 3 (01:37:00):
Marriage is a marriage between a man and a woman
where one or both partners are closeted.

Speaker 1 (01:37:05):
Homosexual that's different, that's.

Speaker 2 (01:37:07):
Different, or bisexual that said bisex.

Speaker 1 (01:37:11):
Okay, ending their two year lavender marriage.

Speaker 2 (01:37:14):
Okay, so beards, that's just a new age way of
saying reach out.

Speaker 1 (01:37:17):
Maybe beards.

Speaker 4 (01:37:18):
I've never heard that phrase before, but okay.

Speaker 1 (01:37:20):
Lavender marriage wasn't an easy decision, but the musician had
a supportive ally. If you have to dump your ex husband,
MX Benson, it does. They don't go by miss they
go by mx. Mx Benson said, co dump him with
his mistress.

Speaker 4 (01:37:38):
Again.

Speaker 1 (01:37:39):
This is going to be old people reading this and
they'll be like all the zoomers. They're all out of control.
This is what they're doing. This is we just cheated
on our spouses before the breakup. Mix Benson twenty seven,
who uses the pronoun they checked in with their therapist,
who said a divorce would be a good choice. Out
of queer solidarity, they formed their husband's mistress. This was

(01:38:02):
kosher in Benson's arrangement, which was not a legal marriage
but a domestic partnership about their shared partner's troubling behavior.
The night of the breakup, Benson and the mistress spent
a cozy evening together. We were eating a lot of
comfort food, playing a lot of animal crossing. Old people
are going to read this and they're going to think
this is what gen Z is doing, lavender marriages and

(01:38:25):
like fake marriages, and they're divorcing and going to their therapist,
and they're going to think that this person is a
representative for gen Z. This is not how divorce works
for gen Z people. I have to do zero research
to tell you that. Zero research will tell me, without

(01:38:45):
a shadow of a doubt. I put everything on it
that this is not representative of divorce in the gen
Z world. I'm not even sure what is going on
in this story here. So Kira Benson was married to
a man I think.

Speaker 2 (01:39:03):
I but think domestic partner.

Speaker 1 (01:39:07):
But no, she was, but she wasn't legally married. She
was it was a domestic partnership. And then her partner
also has a mistress that she's aware of, and that
she told the mistress and they spent time together playing
animal crossing. Well, they thought about the strategy to divorce, okay, yeah,
and the relationship that's not actually a mariage. Yeah, so

(01:39:30):
they were going to co dump him with the mistress,
but she doesn't go by miss because that's no good.
I don't know, but I know this is not any
sort of good representation for you, gen Z. I'm sorry
that The New York Times did this to you. I'm
sorry that they have presented this in some way as
if it's representative of your entire generation.

Speaker 4 (01:39:51):
Of people and how they divorce folks.

Speaker 1 (01:39:54):
I just I feel for you today because a lot
of boomers will be affected by this. There's no way
around it. Real quick, rip r ip. Oh no, they're
all shutting down. The rest of them are shutting down.
They once had five thousand stores. They once had an

(01:40:14):
impact on many people's lives. You've probably been to a
Right Aid, but now I don't know what have Right Aid,
one of America's biggest pharmacy chains, has closed its last stores.
They had eighty nine stores open after having five thousand
at one point in time.

Speaker 2 (01:40:35):
Is there like, is this like Checkers ors Rallies was
righted on the East Coast?

Speaker 1 (01:40:41):
Like I don't know. I think right it was just
everywhere we had to write it when I was growing up.
That I remember, and then it exploded into like Eckerds
and then Walgreens and CBS feels new to me, But
I don't know if that's true or not.

Speaker 2 (01:40:57):
CBS was a branch of something rebranding maybe yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:41:02):
I mean, all I know is that the Right Aid
used to be the one that was what was on
every damn corner with five thousand stores, and now they're
at the end of the line. They're shutting down the
last few that were remaining. Let us know if you
have any experience with that, hit us up tips at
the news Junkie dot com or send a dispatch.

Speaker 4 (01:41:19):
Let's go over to this one.

Speaker 1 (01:41:21):
Here's Randolph, who is emailing tips to the Neewsjunkie dot com.
On the lady with the screaming baby in the restaurant,
Randolph says, I agree with you, it's not appropriate behavior
and it's the parent's responsibility to teach their child to
use an appropriate voice for the location. We made a
distinction with our children that there's an inside voice and
an outside voice. Sure, yeah, I think that works. I

(01:41:44):
think the basic thing here, like the actual position that
I hold, is it's your job in public to try
not to be obnoxious and ruin other people's times. All right,
You're not the only person that matters. Job should be
to not be obnoxious and ruin other people's times. If
you have an infant or a little child that you're

(01:42:05):
bringing along to a restaurant, that's fine. I don't care
if you do that. But if the child starts causing
a scene or crying and you can't get control in
some manner of time that seems reasonable of your child,
then you should take them away. You should take them
to a place where you can calm them down and
maybe bring them back in or worst case scenario, you say,

(01:42:28):
I can't get the child to calm down, I've got
to get them out of here. This is the new
fangled idea. This is and I wouldn't even tie this
to gen Z, but this is the new fangled idea
that it's like I'm the center of the universe and
you just deal with whatever I bring to you. So like,
if I want to bring my baby to the restaurant,
it's a free country. I bring my baby to the restaurant,

(01:42:50):
my baby starts crying at the top of its lungs.
And then I believe she said, my baby has the
right to dine here. My baby has the right to
dine here. It's like, the problem is it's not your
baby dining, dummy. The problem is not you dining here.
The problem is that you're, through the inaction in your parenting,
making the experience bad for other paying customers. That's what's

(01:43:13):
going on in these situations. It's like a weird I
don't know, it's a mentality, it's a it's a sense
that everybody should just deal with whatever you have going on.
And I think it's obnoxious, and I think it's sort
of that. Maybe that's where it divides people. But I
would suggest more people agree with what I'm saying than not.

(01:43:34):
That would be my guest. Let me know how you feel.
Send a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com real quick.
The Mark Sanchez NFL commentator. They have just released video
of him. I guess this is after he got stabbed
in this altercation with some driver.

Speaker 2 (01:43:50):
Ye, I thought he stabbed somebody. It was the other
driver who had the expired pepper spray, yes, and then
said that I'm gonna stab them.

Speaker 1 (01:44:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:44:01):
Was there not somebody who was in the hospital in
critical condition with him?

Speaker 1 (01:44:06):
Yeah, okay, Yeah, that's why the trajectory of the story was.
At first, people go, oh my god, I feel so
bad for this guy. You know, the NFL contator commentator
Mark Sanchez, Well, this guy got stabbed by somebody. It's
really out of control out there, thoughts and prayers to
your family. Then it was no, he was the aggressor
and the other person defensively stabbed him, and then it

(01:44:29):
would now know you learn more and more about it.
But this is him after he was stabbed. You see
him walking down the sidewalk. He's like holding his chest,
always bleeding to on his shirt for sure. Yeah, quite
a bit of normal with a hug. I don't I
don't feel like he is walking that normal. He's just
walking in general.

Speaker 2 (01:44:46):
Sorry, that's what's he is walking.

Speaker 1 (01:44:48):
Yeah, he's holding himself and you could see there's a
lot of blood on his shirt here and.

Speaker 3 (01:44:54):
Also apparently a bunch of potentially expired pepper spray.

Speaker 1 (01:44:59):
On potentially yes, which did not impact him. He was okay,
he survived that part. I've got the press conference from
this that they just did with some new details, so
we'll get into that. Number one, Number two Sea Lane
got his hands on the actual nine to one to
one call from the Disney Springs scuba robbery, so we
can hear more than just the two or three seconds

(01:45:20):
of it that was played on the news outlets. We'll
get into that, injury duty, and a whole lot more.
It's all coming up next on the News junk Key.

(01:45:45):
I got the press conference here for the NFL commentator
who got arrested, even though he was the one that
was stabbed.

Speaker 4 (01:45:51):
We'll talk about that.

Speaker 1 (01:45:52):
I was talking a little bit during the break the
skull mic. You can tune in during breaks or the
whole show if you want over on YouTube tube dot
com slash the News Junkie that I encourage you to
do that at some point. Check it out see if
you like it. But there was a story today that
I just can't bring myself to believe. I just don't
think this is an actual thing or a trend taking place,

(01:46:16):
And it's a suggestion that there are a lot of
older people now who are taking to doing drugs like,
for instance, cocaine, and that's a very bad idea. They
first of all, that's very dangerous, like an older person
doing a drug like that.

Speaker 2 (01:46:36):
Yeah, you're probably is not what it used to be.

Speaker 1 (01:46:38):
It's a heart attack city. That's a really, really, really
bad dangerous thing.

Speaker 4 (01:46:42):
Number one.

Speaker 1 (01:46:43):
And they said, they call them the silver Snorters, And
I'm like, there's no way, there's no way like doing.

Speaker 2 (01:46:50):
It for the first time since the eighties, consistently doing
cocaine to their sixties.

Speaker 4 (01:47:00):
No, I think that.

Speaker 1 (01:47:01):
I think that they're just taking to doing it now.
It says the number of old age Silver Snorters who
have ended up in the hospital for using this stuff
has skyrocketed by a third in just two years. As
many as seven hundred and twenty three people in the
UK alone sought help for the Class A drug, and
eight of those WHOA Eight of those were above the

(01:47:23):
age of ninety.

Speaker 2 (01:47:25):
What the hell they probably were like, if I'm going
to go any day now, yolo, and they still survived.

Speaker 1 (01:47:32):
Can you imagine racket lines at ninety years old?

Speaker 2 (01:47:36):
Could you imagine being a I don't know, someone who
deals coke and you got a call from me, my
ninety five year old some.

Speaker 1 (01:47:46):
Old lady like, I'm looking for another hit here, im mamori.

Speaker 2 (01:47:50):
Sure Kleenex that's been in their pocket all week long
TOI to have their nose after a fat rail.

Speaker 1 (01:47:57):
This can't be true, though, people are saying in the villages. Sure,
I'm sure there's somebody. We're talking about ninety year old
people here. Yeah, back dude. Dcon on YouTube says, Sean,
it's crazy you're talking about this. My girlfriend who's an
r N has come across older people. O d ing
for real, Queen no way, man Like. It seems like
such a horrific idea at ninety years old, but maybe

(01:48:19):
unless you're just trying to You're like, well, you have
one last rod? What what am I gonna do?

Speaker 4 (01:48:25):
Do I want to do?

Speaker 1 (01:48:26):
I want to wake up every morning, put on my
little outfit and be a greeter at Walmart? Am I
n breathing? Or do I want to run the gamut
with some Colombian marching powder and just see which days my.

Speaker 2 (01:48:38):
Last I Just what would that be like ninety years old?
Where it takes you forty five minutes to get across
her house.

Speaker 1 (01:48:45):
M hm anymore anymore?

Speaker 2 (01:48:48):
Now I'm walking again, the walkers thrown aside.

Speaker 3 (01:48:51):
Yeah yeah, talk about how much longer your stories are
gonna get? Just some people, so old people just jaw right?

Speaker 1 (01:49:00):
Yeah, hi as hell?

Speaker 4 (01:49:02):
Holy cow?

Speaker 1 (01:49:03):
Does the story get faster or just that much longer?
I'd listen to it. I can tell you that if
there's a ninety year old person that wants to tell
me about their their days growing up wherever, and they
also want to be a silver snorter, I'm listening. I'm
paying attention. I'm all about it. Before we get into
jury duty, let's see here, this is the press conference.

(01:49:25):
Actually we'll put this in jury duty. Why not it
belongs there anyhow, Let's do jury duty.

Speaker 11 (01:49:30):
Cour It is now in session, So put your phone
down and pay attention before we call the bailiff over
to whip your ass.

Speaker 1 (01:49:35):
Your no injury duty with the news junkie. Jury duty
brought to you by the one, the only mode wit
of the DeWit Law Firm. He's not a silver snorter,
I assure you he's not. He's just a great attorney
who's ready to help you out to fight those insurance companies.
The greedy, greedy insurance companies.

Speaker 3 (01:49:51):
Gosh I googled silver Snorters and the second and third
options are this story from the Metro rise of the
silver Snorters as they're a cocaine crisis.

Speaker 1 (01:50:03):
But the first option is a silver straw like thing
on ema. This is for the silver snorters that they
would get this, This is for them to do what
they're doing. They're a little up there in age. I'm
not going to tell them what to do. I'm not

(01:50:24):
going to tell old people what to do. I'm gonna
say it's a bad idea. Is anybody saying no? So
this says no, there isn't They invented a buzzword and
wrote a story around it. Yes, that's what I think
is happening here, although they did say some people that was.

Speaker 2 (01:50:38):
Easier to understand than lavender marriage with MX animal crossing.

Speaker 4 (01:50:45):
I think so, yes.

Speaker 1 (01:50:46):
But anyhow, I got lost in the motive wit promo
don't forget if you're in an accident eight hundred Calmo
eight hundred Calmo or go to just Calmo dot com.
Let's go to the press conference for the Mark sand
Has stabbing story. One of the.

Speaker 11 (01:51:01):
Statute Coy aggravators is the age of the victim, and
certainly that is something that the judge can.

Speaker 1 (01:51:06):
Consider victims sixty nine years old.

Speaker 11 (01:51:08):
Investigators take a BAC level from the thing shows Well,
anytime anyone's admitted to the hospital, there's a number of
things that are conducted just kind of a matter of
routine and a matter of procedure. And I think as
you've worked through the process, certainly their health records are protected.
We have to go through that process of making sure
that any information that we receive is obtained for the
proper channels.

Speaker 1 (01:51:29):
So the journalist was asking if they've perhaps got blood
alcohol readings to see if the NFL commentator Guy Mark Sanchez,
or or anybody else involved was drunk.

Speaker 4 (01:51:39):
That's what he's talking about here.

Speaker 11 (01:51:40):
Seem's working on that. Do we know if investigates a
bad chance of tuck Day Sanchez applosis piece together work.
It is Friday ninety's life before his handle.

Speaker 16 (01:51:51):
I can't answer exactly what step in the process the
investigators are at, but as the prosecutor mentioned, just because
charges are filed doesn't mean the case or the investigation stop.

Speaker 1 (01:52:01):
So the investigators will be.

Speaker 4 (01:52:03):
Looking to all those things.

Speaker 16 (01:52:04):
And I think the medical records that are going to
be extremely important for both individuals to help the prosecutor
make an important the charging decision, to see if there's
some other way to another charging need to be at it,
but also to see if there's that there was some
sort of altered state of mind of the individuals involved.

Speaker 12 (01:52:21):
In this incident.

Speaker 11 (01:52:22):
Damn man, the fellow You's bond has not changed so well. So,
as you know, we're currently assigned to this mere level
six court with the additional charges, this case will be
transferred to a major felon in court and then it
would be up to that major feloning court to make
the determination as to whether or not a bond should
be imposed.

Speaker 1 (01:52:39):
So there's even more charges potentially headed his way and
he's in for a world to heard here. We'll see
what happens to him next and keep an eye on
that story. I saw a lot of people talking this
weekend about this French influencer who was jailed.

Speaker 4 (01:52:55):
I don't know if you guys caught this at all.

Speaker 2 (01:52:57):
But what a needle dude? Hello?

Speaker 1 (01:53:01):
What are they an influencer for?

Speaker 2 (01:53:05):
We lost you for a second there, Oh was it
the needle dude?

Speaker 1 (01:53:07):
Yes, yeah, it's God.

Speaker 2 (01:53:09):
That would have made me so mad.

Speaker 1 (01:53:11):
And it's one of those things where I'm like, it's
not funny, it's not at all interesting, it's just really
messed up what you're doing. I'll try to see if
I can bring up one of the clips of this
for those of you who are watching today.

Speaker 2 (01:53:24):
Everybody else excuse like, he doesn't even have any uh,
just entertainment in his body at all. He was like,
I just needed to make content.

Speaker 1 (01:53:36):
Here's that's what I thought of. This is him. He's
out there and he would go up next to people
in public and he would pretend like he was injecting
them with something.

Speaker 2 (01:53:44):
He was actually poking them with an empty needle.

Speaker 4 (01:53:47):
Was it with a fake syringe?

Speaker 2 (01:53:49):
I would freak out, Yeah, oh my god, yeah, of course,
what was in your body?

Speaker 1 (01:53:53):
What do you have to do? He's wearing a mask,
and he would come up to them with these needles,
with the fake syringes, and sometimes he would just like
squirt something on them. Sometimes he would like I don't
know if he ever put a needle in his skin,
I'm not sure, but they said he was sentenced to
six months for doing this as some sort of some

(01:54:13):
sort of prank, which is a ridiculous Yeah, I wish,
I wish he got more than that. Honestly, he also
got a two thousand dollars fine and a three year
ban on owning or carrying a weapon.

Speaker 2 (01:54:24):
How about you Tube, they're still going to run his channel.

Speaker 1 (01:54:27):
He pretended to inject people. I don't even know if
he was on YouTube. This is a I think they're
showing TikTok, but I don't even know if this is
just like people social media that says Mohito les Picurefu
or the mad Stinger was his name. The twenty seven
year old pretended to inject people with an empty syringe
and film their horrified reactions. It caused a panic in

(01:54:50):
France and there were reports of needle attacks at student
parties and festivals. Police received one hundred and forty five
reports of needles spiking during one music festival in June,
although they didn't find too many actual cases of it.

Speaker 4 (01:55:03):
This is like a domestic terrorism.

Speaker 1 (01:55:05):
Yeah, it's messed up. It's not funny, and I like
when people like the idea of prank. The word prank
got too expansive and it became like not a funny
thing to do.

Speaker 7 (01:55:17):
This, And.

Speaker 3 (01:55:19):
What was the thing where you would just randomly show
up places and dance like a flash mob.

Speaker 1 (01:55:24):
Flash mob.

Speaker 3 (01:55:25):
That one also got way too broad of a brush there,
and then they're like, no, there's not a flash mob.

Speaker 1 (01:55:31):
You're robbing a store. Yeah, it's just it's not funny.
And if somebody did that to your mom or your
sister or something, you'd probably be pretty damn pissed off,
I think rightfully.

Speaker 4 (01:55:39):
So all right, when we.

Speaker 1 (01:55:41):
Come back, we'll see what's happening in your world and
check in with some dispatches. Also, let's talk about Chicago
and the ice chaos that was going down this weekend,
including the one woman who was shot by ice. Why
that all happened? Crazy story, and it's continuing to unfold
in that. So we'll give you the update. And a

(01:56:01):
man gets a text messages, gets a text message singular
first and loses thousands of dollars. How can you make
sure that this doesn't happen to you? We'll talk about it.
It's coming up next in the news junkie. Some of

(01:56:30):
the people in Chicago that are against the ice officers
are crazy.

Speaker 14 (01:56:35):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:56:36):
I saw like, I saw a thread online and the
thread was like I think it was from our slash
Chicago on Reddit or something, and they were like, these
fascists are trying to take over in our country.

Speaker 4 (01:56:48):
Blah blah blah blah.

Speaker 1 (01:56:49):
They're talking about the ICE officers. And then they said
they killed this woman, are they? They shot this woman
because she was protesting, And I thought, well, that sounds bad. Hey,
they just shot a woman who was protesting. You should
be allowed to protest against whatever you want to as
long as you're peaceful and orderly and following the laws
and rules and stuff in the United States of America.

Speaker 4 (01:57:11):
I don't care if I agree with you. Go ahead,
I don't agree with half the protesters out there. What
do I care?

Speaker 1 (01:57:15):
Because you have every right to do that, and you
have every right to disagree with me on any number
of topics. It's fine, it's fine. But I was like,
this seems a little fishy too. There's no way this
woman was just protesting, like she didn't want immigration raids
to happen. And the woman was so unhinged. This woman,
they knew about her already because she was regularly threatening

(01:57:37):
people ice officers, well just general people, it seems, on
social media. And then her and some other dude took
part in this group that surrounded the ice officers with
like ten cars and then were ramming into them and
with cars. Yes, there was multiple instances of people using
their cars to attack the ice officers this weekend. And

(01:58:00):
then one of them, the woman drove her car directly
at the officers and one of them, the officer fired
a shot because your car is a weapon at that point,
and then she fled the scene and hauled ass out
of there. I'm like, these people have been fed a
bill of goods about what they think they're doing here,
like some heroic thing to stop ice officers. It's craziness, man,

(01:58:21):
It's absolute insanity. And it's not even just in Chicago.
Like that's why they're talking about bringing the FEDS into
these cities, because the cities don't seem to want to
do anything about violence. When the ice officers are just
there to get people who are hopefully in the country
illegally out like they can do that, they have a
right to do that in the United States of America,

(01:58:42):
as opposed to the people that they're tracking down. And
it's unhinged, unhinged that we have people that are like
so bloodthirsty against these officers. I don't know what to
do about it to fix all of this.

Speaker 3 (01:58:54):
Did you see the article or the story that came
through about the app that they have had pulled off
the app store?

Speaker 1 (01:59:02):
Yeah? It was the ice tracker thing.

Speaker 2 (01:59:04):
Yeah, yeah, pulled out of Apple's app store because Android
thought usually that's everything.

Speaker 1 (01:59:11):
I don't know if Android stopped it, but I know
Apple did pull down. I think there was multiple. I
only briefly saw the story ceiling, but I think there
were multiple ice tracker apps that they pulled down. I
always thought that.

Speaker 3 (01:59:22):
I mean, I found it interesting mostly because I thought, well,
and I know that in Florida about a month ago,
the Attorney General, James Uthmeyer wanted to go after this
former senator who posted like a location that Ice was
at in actually in Orlando, at the like the the
bus station, really and and Uthmeyer called it doxing, which

(01:59:47):
is another example of I don't think you know what
doxing really is. Bro right, like that she just said
where they were. She didn't people throw that around too much. Yeah,
she didn't give out their home addresses or anything. If
she was doxing Ice agent, I think that's bad. But
when it's just telling people where law enforcement is. I'm like,
wasn't that a whole case where they ruled that, like

(02:00:09):
based on it was they were going after people for
doing the thing where you blink your brights at the
other at oncoming traffic to let them know, hey, there's
a speed trap over here. You know there's cops here,
and it ruled that was protected with the as First Amendment.

Speaker 1 (02:00:26):
You know, protected speech, right.

Speaker 3 (02:00:28):
I was like, well, how's that different from having an
app that just goes, hey, this is where ice is
has been spotted.

Speaker 1 (02:00:34):
I don't know what the actual laws are on stuff
like that. Like from what I was like redesigning to
do Yeah, their app does that for sure, But from
what I knew about these apps, you would like report
that there was an ice raid going on, or maybe
you could like identify the iced officers. And that part

(02:00:55):
was the one that was concerning to me because I
think there's legitimately people who want harm to come to
all these people. Right.

Speaker 3 (02:01:01):
I don't know what was on the apps. It just
to me sounded like, oh, they're just telling it's people
telling each other where the ice people are.

Speaker 1 (02:01:09):
Somebody said it was called ice block on the Apple
app Store. The app was called ice Block on the
Apple App Store. Yeah, I'm usually not a big fan
of those things. I really don't like the two apps
that they have where people can talk about their former
partners and stuff. The t apps there's one for women
and one for men, where it's just about like going

(02:01:30):
on and harassing people. I think all that stuff is
kind of a bad idea. But I think some of
these people are so hyped up though they're like they're murderous.

Speaker 7 (02:01:37):
Man.

Speaker 1 (02:01:38):
I don't know. The biggest division that I see in
the United States of America is there's some portion of
the populace that absolutely hates the country and wants to
bring it down.

Speaker 4 (02:01:50):
I don't know how to reconcile with that.

Speaker 1 (02:01:52):
Like the best thing I could think of that I
usually lean on, is you're allowed to have those thoughts.
I don't want to be the thought police, but I
don't want you to have any power, Like if you're
in America hating America, if you're in America rooting constantly
for the bad guys and the criminals and all these people, like,
at some point in time, I guess my best bet
is just to say I don't want you to have

(02:02:13):
any power. I don't want you to be voted into
dog catcher as a gig. I don't want you to
have any any power doing all this stuff because these
people are unhinged, and like sure, I mean, I guess
if people feel the need to mention this every time,
Like obviously there are people who are protesting peacefully and
they have every right to do that, and I get
why they're upset about these things, but there is a

(02:02:36):
percentage of these folks who are like violent, bloodthirsty weirdos,
And I don't know, it's just it's bad that this
is happening in some of these cities. Then it almost
feels like bait. It almost feels like bait, like you
don't do anything about people getting violent with ice officers,
and then the Trump administration goes, well, you're not going
to do anything about it, We'll send in the FEDS,

(02:02:57):
and then they react to the Feds and get even
madder and they escalated, escalated, escalator. It just it doesn't improve,
and we're going in the wrong direction in this country
on so many fronts. We're not really reconciling anything with
each other.

Speaker 4 (02:03:10):
That sucks to me. This doesn't or or maybe it does.

Speaker 1 (02:03:14):
We'll see Sea Light has obtained through law enforcement sources
the nine to one one call of the Disney Springs robbery. Now,
in case you don't know about this, I'll bring you back.
There was a robbery in an area called Disney Springs.
For the uninitiated, this is it's free. It's a free
area down by the theme parks where they have a

(02:03:36):
lot of great shops. They have a lot of very
good restaurants.

Speaker 2 (02:03:40):
Disney saying that giant take a price.

Speaker 1 (02:03:44):
Yeah, and it's kind of a it's is fine. I
go there a bunch.

Speaker 2 (02:03:47):
It's downtown Disney.

Speaker 1 (02:03:49):
Yes, yeah, it used to be downtown Disney with what
was the place with the club's called Pleasure Island.

Speaker 3 (02:03:54):
Pleasure Island, Right, there was Pleasure Island, and then there
was Downtown Disney West side.

Speaker 2 (02:03:59):
I went to Disney Quest, where I'm like, yeah, computer
and technology, this is wild question.

Speaker 3 (02:04:07):
Question is so funny, like the very last time you
ever went to Disney Quest, seeing how different like that
was the most advanced stuff at the time. My mind,
there's so many better video games.

Speaker 2 (02:04:20):
I can put my phone in a cardboard box that's
strapped in my head and it's the same VR that
I was a Disney Quest.

Speaker 1 (02:04:27):
It's crazy how fast all this stuff is happening. Honestly,
it's a little alarming. But this area is a great spot, okay,
And it's a fun little place. You can bring the
family out, bring your screaming babies and go to this
Disney Springs place. There's a lot of restaurants in. One
of them is called paddle Pedal Fish Pedal Fish, Pedal Fish,

(02:04:47):
and it's a large paddle boat that is turned into
a big seafood restaurant. It's great, and you know, it's
one of the older places that's been in there for
a while. And in the dark of night, as they
were counting up the money that they had taken in
for the day, which is a lot tens of thousands,
somebody comes up in like a scuba gear, not not

(02:05:08):
with the tanks and whatnot, but like the wetsuits type stuff,
Super James Bond. You couldn't see anything on them. You
couldn't see the color of their eyes, you couldn't see anything.
They thought the person was Spanish or Spanish speaking, because
they were, you know, they were picking up something there.
Maybe we'll find out more than I'm on one call.
They thought that the person was like a shorter mail

(02:05:31):
and that was basically all they had. And he didn't
have a weapon.

Speaker 2 (02:05:34):
I don't think that he showed no, didn't have a weapon.
He had the spray paint that he hit the cameras with,
and then he had I don't know if on him
or got it from one of their stations, but they
put bags. He put bags over the employee's heads, robbing.

Speaker 1 (02:05:52):
Yeah, and then they they called nine to one one.
I'm going to make a really obvious assumption here. I'm
guessing this call took place when the person not while
it was going on, and the news only played like
a three or four second snippet of the nine one
one call. Celin got the whole thing. The whole thing
is eleven minutes long, so I can't play the whole thing.
Also in the next eleven minutes, sit back and make

(02:06:12):
yourself comfortable.

Speaker 3 (02:06:13):
There's a dude who curses a little bit in it,
and I can I can sort of paraphrase what he
says later. But this is when they're talking about the
I think the spray paint. Okay, they have the because
they asked if they have any video footage of this,
is anyone.

Speaker 9 (02:06:35):
Came this incidental.

Speaker 4 (02:06:39):
He sprayed it, she said, spray paint, That's what it was.

Speaker 1 (02:06:49):
And then this one.

Speaker 3 (02:06:51):
Now a lot of people like as soon as this
story hit have been saying, well, it sounds like somebody
who knew what they were doing. They say that in
this next part of the nine one.

Speaker 9 (02:07:00):
One call crashed into the catch room in the back.

Speaker 2 (02:07:03):
Yeah, well, yeah, you were not round about in the
dining room area, Okay.

Speaker 12 (02:07:10):
He came around the car and though often.

Speaker 1 (02:07:12):
It was like he knew where it was, it was
like he knew where it was. Like they even thought,
like this guy knew what he was doing. This is
what we said. We were like, look, the timing, a
lot of stuff leads us to believe that this person
either knew somebody who worked there, or used to work
there or something. There's something fishy going on. But they

(02:07:38):
did a damn good job of covering up their tracks,
it would seem, says a person cursing about what were
they so upset? At some point it was a different guy.

Speaker 3 (02:07:45):
He was just telling his side of the story and
he said, uh, you said he probably came from the
dining room area. He came from our probably our lobby. Yeah,
we're just soaking wet with so much fing ink there
w D forty or some s and now they're getting sprayed,
the s out of the house, sprayed on the camera,
they sprayed up the This says flypaint, but it's a

(02:08:08):
free transcription, so that he probably said spray paint. And
then like shortly after that guy was talking to the
nine one one operator, the police officer showed up to
the scene and they disconnected.

Speaker 1 (02:08:22):
I'm trying to think of what, like, if you were
an investigator, what you would take away from this. For
some reason, I don't feel like the person was super young.
I don't know. Maybe it's just because they thought about
a lot of.

Speaker 2 (02:08:33):
Stuff, yeah, or they're just then again, could you be
much older and be able to.

Speaker 1 (02:08:42):
To pull this off?

Speaker 2 (02:08:43):
Yeah, like the swimming of it and maybe turn on
like he was just like he's using a snarkle or
is it a tank or he disappeared back into the water,
so he must have had some back of those waterproofs.

Speaker 3 (02:08:55):
I think some of the stuff we're getting about that
is coming from accounts of whatever surveillance might have caught
this guy, because it doesn't say anything about any sort
of swimming gear in this call, because as soon as
the guy rushes in, he's dressed.

Speaker 1 (02:09:14):
Head to toe in black, all black.

Speaker 3 (02:09:16):
He spray paints a bunch of stuff, and he puts
bags over these people's heads.

Speaker 1 (02:09:19):
Yeah, and his dog goggles over his eyes too, so
he can't even see like his actual eyeball.

Speaker 3 (02:09:24):
So I don't know that they saw him for long
enough to determine that he was wearing swimming gear. I
think maybe some of that information and I'm just speculating
here based on what's not in this nine to one
one call. I think some of that came from from
footage that was obtained from external sources.

Speaker 1 (02:09:43):
Yeah, yeah, I mean it's all. I really wonder if
they're going to catch this person. But it's interesting. I
hate to say it. It's really like a who done
it kind of thing, and I'm glad nobody got hurt,
but it's an interesting one to follow. That's what we've
got the nine to one one call. The rest was
just kind of a back and forth. It doesn't matter
quite as much. Let me pay this off since I

(02:10:05):
talked about it earlier. This is from click Orlando. They
said a seventy five year old man from Ocalla Florida,
who asked to be identified only by his first name,
said his troubles began with a single text message offering
him a flexible part time job.

Speaker 2 (02:10:23):
Folks money.

Speaker 1 (02:10:24):
If you get a text out of the blue and
they're like, good news, we got a job for you.
I didn't apply anywhere. That's so weird. I mean I've
gotten these. Have you guys gotten any of these offering
me a job? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Hey, I'm a headhunter
from blah blah blah, and we've got a job for
you making this much money. And you're like, okay, it's

(02:10:45):
a whole scam thing, but this guy fell for it.

Speaker 4 (02:10:47):
I guess.

Speaker 1 (02:10:47):
The text promise daily wages ranging from fifty dollars to
three thousand dollars.

Speaker 4 (02:10:53):
It's quite the range for simple task.

Speaker 1 (02:10:55):
I would like to make the three thousand dollars a day,
please please. I don't care about fifty daily wages ranging
from fifty dollars to three thousand dollars from simple tasks
like watching YouTube videos and liking them, sign me up
three grand I watch a YouTube video of the cat
flying somewhere, and I clicked the light button. Good to go.

(02:11:16):
In a matter of a month, I could make a
thousand or a couple thousand dollars that would support my income.
That was the intention of it, he said. He ended
up falling for the scam and sending thousands of dollars.

Speaker 4 (02:11:26):
To these people. And guy, I know it's it's so bad.
It's so bad the older.

Speaker 2 (02:11:33):
People in your lives. Yeah, about safety when it comes
to all these scams.

Speaker 6 (02:11:38):
I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (02:11:39):
There's sure like.

Speaker 2 (02:11:40):
That and never we would not fall for it. But
then there's some scams where I mean, I had a
friend recently told me about his business getting scammed and
it was brilliant, like, oh yeah, I mean, there was
so many loops to it, but it would seem like
a standard job, and all of a sudden they're out
thirty thousand dollars because of fake check and whatever it was.

(02:12:05):
They do become a little bit more tricky, But then
you have old people's stories like this where it's like
it was Enrique Les yes, and he said he wanted
to marry me, but he only needed ten thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (02:12:16):
And they some are more obvious, some are more obvious
than others, but like they get these people if you
just get a Rando text like that. Please, please, under
no circumstances do you send them any money? All right, babe,
do not click.

Speaker 2 (02:12:32):
The link doesn't have any information period.

Speaker 3 (02:12:34):
Does it say how this guy lost a bunch of
money because the text was offering him employment.

Speaker 1 (02:12:39):
The text was offering him the job. But like everything else,
it's like, like, I guess I got scammed in this
way one time, a long time ago, where there was
a job.

Speaker 4 (02:12:48):
I was looking for a gig at the time.

Speaker 1 (02:12:50):
It was before I got my water job, and the
job was like, hey, you can make this much money,
and I said, that sounds good, and then I went
to the interview. And then when I got to the interview,
I should have known something was because there were so
many people at the interview. IT'SOK, a cattle call. And
then they say, oh, we're selling knives, and then you
just have to buy the first set of knives to

(02:13:10):
be able to hit your knives. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:13:13):
And then I'm like, god, I don't know if everyone
got a set of knives for Christmas for the next
five years.

Speaker 1 (02:13:19):
Yeah, And the business is selling knives to people who
think they're selling knives, and then you get screwed.

Speaker 4 (02:13:24):
He said.

Speaker 1 (02:13:24):
He started communicating with these people who believed he was
believing there were his new business managers. They sent photos
back and forth. The job was supposedly for Warner Brothers.
They would pay me three dollars for that particular one,
just for laking a video. They even sent checks here
and there for around fifty dollars. That's a trick, by
the way, to make you think, oh, this is legit.

(02:13:45):
Dennis's business managers introduced him to the world of crypto.
They had him download apps and taught him to trade,
but he had to put his own money on first.
In one particular task, if he invested two hundred dollars,
he was told his return would be four hundred and
forty eight dollars. He went all in completing the tasks
and many others. Over the course of several months, he
spent fifteen thousand dollars of his own money via payment

(02:14:07):
apps in bitcoin, but never saw any returns. I don't
know where the money went.

Speaker 4 (02:14:11):
I have no clue.

Speaker 1 (02:14:12):
They denied having it, he said, So, you know, he
just he thought he was like getting into this job
and making money, but really he was the fool parted
from his money by these scammers. So hold on tight
to your digital monies. When we come back, we'll get
to you and your feedback, which is rolling in fast
right now.

Speaker 4 (02:14:30):
Thank you for that.

Speaker 1 (02:14:32):
We also got some more stuff to touch on before
we wrap things up on a Monday. Maybe that includes
you tips at the news Junkie dot com. Hit the
show right now. Oh, somebody did say they want to
be anonymous, so don't show this just yet, Zeilan. And
they said, I got a tattoo.

Speaker 2 (02:14:47):
Of ed Geen And they sent, I don't know how
anonymous you could be. I don't think a lot of
people have that.

Speaker 1 (02:14:57):
This is the tattoo of ed Geen person. There's stuff
in the background there. You could take its blurred and uh,
it's it's a tattoo on their body of this serial
killer featured in the Netflix series that's number one right now.

Speaker 2 (02:15:13):
And you wanted that tottoo because.

Speaker 1 (02:15:15):
That's what I'm worried about. That's what I'm worried about.
That seems like a bit of a red flag. It's
it's faded out pretty bad now, he says. Uh, they
say I got a career in healthcare, but I've been
retired or retired for many years now. I got the
tattoo because I was young and really into horror movies.

(02:15:36):
I was aware of all the movies that have been
inspired by a game. But sometimes we make bad choices
when we're young. Sorry for the bad photo of the tattoo.
All right, there you go, Thank you, Anonymous. Appreciate that
we're back in a moment. All of this and more
coming up next. On the news, Junkie talking a bit

(02:16:08):
about what was happening in the Middle East. I don't
know if I saved this or not, but there was
a crazy ass video I saw, like a drone video.

Speaker 4 (02:16:16):
Oh here, it is right here, And when.

Speaker 1 (02:16:19):
People ask you know, what's going on in Gaza, this
is like I always think about this. This is not
from that long ago. It's from a couple of weeks ago,
and they just flew a drone over Gaza and you
can see. I mean it when I say, like, what's left, Like,
it's literally just everything has been bombed to hell. It's
nothingness for large portions of this area. Building after building

(02:16:43):
after building after building just completely demolished.

Speaker 4 (02:16:46):
So when I look at this stuff, I'm.

Speaker 1 (02:16:48):
Like, dude, I know, I know some of you are
so like you've been brain broken by anything Trump. But
if the guy, I don't care who he is, can
broker a deal, and this deal works between Gaza and Israel,
and you know, anything to stop whatever is going on here,
I'm all for it, and I think you should get
all of the kudos.

Speaker 4 (02:17:08):
In the world for doing it.

Speaker 1 (02:17:09):
If that's the case, Will it happen, I don't know.
But man, whenever I see these videos are just how
much stuff has been bombed in Gaza, just endless destruction
of block after block. Actually, wonder what's left a bomb?
There isn't There isn't much. I told people before, like,
take take this as an assignment. And I'll preface this
because you know there's no correct takes here because everybody's

(02:17:31):
unhinged in this this world. But as horrible as October
seventh was and unforgivable, and as much as I think
everybody in hamash As would be a great target and
if they all died, the world would be a better place,
as much as I believe all of that, when you look,

(02:17:51):
if you go onto Google Maps and go into like anywhere,
pick anywhere in Gaza, go anywhere, and just start scrolling along,
you'll see just how much stuff has been bombed and
at the end of the day, if you think, well,
there's actual people here, kids, families, grandma's, grandpas, and if
you care about humans at all, you would want this

(02:18:14):
to be over for those people, even if you thought
they were like brainwashed people who just hate Jews or whatever.

Speaker 2 (02:18:20):
I mean.

Speaker 1 (02:18:20):
I would hope that you would want this stuff to end.
But some people, I think, root against Trump so much
that they wouldn't even want him to get that win.
They wouldn't want him to get that win. I don't
care who it is. I want a win like that.
I think it's better for humanity. But we'll see. I
did want to talk about this real quick, since we're
doing a bit of a grab bag segment before I
get to your emails. There's a story of a person

(02:18:41):
who is a forklift driver and he won a million
dollars on a scratch off a million dollars. He went
from having seventeen dollars in his bank account to having
over one point three million, a good scratcher.

Speaker 4 (02:18:57):
As they call him.

Speaker 1 (02:18:59):
The guy's name is Adam Lopez and he's thirty nine
years old, but he started celebrating after becoming a millionaire.
He partied a little too hard because they said, he
started partying and did not stop for months, and he
had to be hospitalized because he was running at it

(02:19:20):
so hard. Has this guy just never had money?

Speaker 2 (02:19:25):
So he's party. I thought, one party, and you know,
so he's been doing. Now he's in the hospital, and
I imagine that a lot of the money was spent
on the partying.

Speaker 1 (02:19:38):
Uh huh.

Speaker 2 (02:19:39):
I was a hospital bill looking.

Speaker 4 (02:19:41):
Oh god, I don't know. I don't know just yet.

Speaker 1 (02:19:43):
It is in the UK, so I think, you know,
he's got less of a situation that he would hear
in the US with the healthcare system. But he says,
I knew what I was doing, and I knew it
was going to come to an end eventually, and it
nearly came to an end in the worst possible way.
This was a massive, massive wake up call. I was
partying for three months after winning the lottery. It allowed
me to live a bit of a life I never lived.
But I think I went the wrong way about it.

(02:20:05):
I mean, it was enjoyable.

Speaker 2 (02:20:06):
I think he didn't live that life a little bit.
With seventeen dollars in his make ago.

Speaker 1 (02:20:10):
It just couldn't have come from nowhere. They said it
became apparent about three weeks ago. I've got a blood
clot in my leg which spread to my lungs. It's
been a kick to the backside, he said. It's been rough.
So you gotta celebrate a little a little bit more
dialed down if you don't mind.

Speaker 4 (02:20:28):
Let's see ceiling.

Speaker 1 (02:20:29):
The lots of people are sending in the story about
the supermoon out there for you.

Speaker 4 (02:20:32):
They just want you to know.

Speaker 1 (02:20:34):
I thought it was harvest or something.

Speaker 2 (02:20:36):
I thought it was a king moon. It's King Ty. Sorry.

Speaker 1 (02:20:39):
This story says October's super moon is the first of
three this year, so it could be very bright tonight.

Speaker 7 (02:20:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:20:49):
I have that telescope out and just looking at the
moon as we read this. Here is Omit talking about
ice in Chicago. Hey, junkies, you were asking for what
direction we could go into calm people down regarding ice
raids and just the general craziness that's happening.

Speaker 4 (02:21:05):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (02:21:06):
It seems a lot of this could be avoided if
President Trump and the administration tried to reconcile things. President
Trump is the type to double and triple down, to
just move forward without really paying attention to concerns from
those who aren't. Quote on his side. This causes a
lot of stress and stress and anxiety to the people
who want to be listened to. The government is the
one in power. They're the ones who need to reach
out to figure things out. But as we've seen, they

(02:21:28):
prefer to ignore or get rid of detractors verse trying
to reach out and meet in the middle. So people
feel that protests aren't enough and they feel the need
to literally fight like the Black Panthers back in the day.
It's a response America has done before when there's a
government that uses rhetoric like we saw with McCarthyism, says
oh men, I don't necessarily disagree with you. I think
that the Trump administration should do things to tone down

(02:21:50):
the rhetoric. I think that's the goal should be the
goal of any president, to bring Americans together, to tone
things down. There is an element now es them.

Speaker 2 (02:22:00):
Charlie liked them, but I absolutely hate him.

Speaker 1 (02:22:03):
So that's what he said at the memorial for Charlie Kirk.
But there's a lot of people just who who want
politics to be a blood sport right now.

Speaker 4 (02:22:13):
I don't like that.

Speaker 1 (02:22:14):
I like when, even though I want the news to
be wild and I thrive in that world. I like
when people in America have the best shot at having
just a great life. And I truly see so many
people that get brain broken by political stuff and I'm like,
you're you're wasting it. You have one spin around on

(02:22:34):
this blue marble and you're wasting it, like spending so
much time being angry about this stuff. Part of the months,
I see so many people who are you know, they've
radicalized on a lot of these issues, Ice being just
just one of them. But no, I don't disagree. I
think that the administration could absolutely positively do more to

(02:22:57):
bring down the heat on this and I think it's
ever every politicians responsibility to do that. I'm just not
seeing the politicians willing to do it now. I'm not
seeing them. Mike says to Tips of the dews Junkie
dot com about obnoxious kids at restaurants. It seems now
that you have kids or kids are involved. Now, it
seems now that if you have kids or kids are involved,

(02:23:19):
it's supposed to override all other considerations. The restaurant incident
is just another personification of this mentality. All adult pastimes, porn, vaping,
book social media must be restricted to everybody because of
the children. No, some things are for adults only, and
his parents, it's your job to keep this from your kids,
not mine, not the government yours.

Speaker 4 (02:23:39):
That also includes respecting rules in a public space.

Speaker 1 (02:23:41):
It's not my responsibility to tolerate disruptive behavior. And one
more this is from Katie who says, Sean, I saw
a documentary on Alfred Hitchcock, you were talking about him.
The women in his movies didn't like him at all.
They hated him. He was grabby and very in a
appropriate He made them very uncomfortable. He was a creeper. Katie,

(02:24:04):
I don't know a lot about this, so I'm not
really going to weigh in too much. But from the
brief research that I did about Alfred Hitchcock after watching
the docu series, it seems like in his time, in
the moment, he was mostly respected by people and wasn't
thought of this way. And then afterwards, after he had
died and after most people had like moved past Alfred

(02:24:26):
Hitchcock's career, there were some books and documentaries that painted
him in a negative light. And I've seen movie historians
say both sides of this that either those were accurate
and he was a nasty guy, and I've seen people
say that this is all nonsense, like black legend, whereas

(02:24:47):
just somebody looking to defame him after his death. I
don't know enough about Alfred Hitchcock. If somebody does chime
in with the email a tips at the Newsjunkie dot com,
all right, that'll do it for now. Oh we are
way behind quick Break. When we come back final dis dispatches.
Stories that didn't make the cut, and today I learned
to wrap everything up for a Monday that is coming
up next in the News Junkie Stories that didn't make

(02:25:24):
the cut. One that was shocking to me this weekend
from NBC News. A thirty five year old skydiving instructor
died after he was presumed to have fallen from the
sky without a parachute.

Speaker 2 (02:25:36):
Which is I fer one.

Speaker 1 (02:25:39):
Yeah, as you might imagine, that's that's a bad thing.
The instructor became separated from a tandem rig with another skydiver.
They said the other person survived because their parachute got
wrapped up in a tree and it ended up keeping
them alive. But I never thought of that happening. But
on a tandem jump, the got separated from them and

(02:26:03):
then the instructor has no shoot and then the person
who's going on a tandem skydi was like, oh, what
am I supposed to.

Speaker 2 (02:26:13):
Be supposed to do that? You know, surf's up sign, Yeah,
my cheek's flapping.

Speaker 1 (02:26:17):
Yeah, that's got to be absolutely frightening. The second skydriver
was found lodged in a tree with an open parachute
in the woods, and they said it took several ladders
to get the skydiver, who's awake, alert and in stable condition.

Speaker 4 (02:26:29):
The other guy so much.

Speaker 1 (02:26:32):
You're going to hear people talking about some sort of
storm system that's likely to develop in the Atlantic this weekend.
They're going to say, look, this thing might be heading
for the east coast of the United States. They're going
to show you some sort of seven day maps with
the cone of death. I tell you brush it off. Okay,

(02:26:53):
the shield, the force field seems to be working this year.
I think we're good to go. But there is a
disturb bent's out there in the Atlantic. Just said that,
But nine years ago today we did two shows.

Speaker 3 (02:27:06):
Is that true because there was a years ago, Well
what hurricane was at I'd be twenty sixteen.

Speaker 2 (02:27:13):
Michael, I'm not sure either.

Speaker 1 (02:27:17):
That had to be around the time where we had
like a lot in a row, right incredibility, They had
like multiple and in a couple of years we had
an office.

Speaker 2 (02:27:25):
And I had the cats there.

Speaker 1 (02:27:26):
Yeah, yeah, because we had when there's a storm, we
got to go in and they got like a generator
and then there got.

Speaker 2 (02:27:31):
No place but my cat.

Speaker 1 (02:27:32):
It might have been Hurricane Nicole. Was it?

Speaker 4 (02:27:35):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (02:27:36):
Circle look at that?

Speaker 7 (02:27:39):
All right?

Speaker 2 (02:27:40):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (02:27:41):
What else do we have here? A couple of things
on the way out the beach front home of this
judge burned to the ground like an explosion. They said
there was an explosion. Yeah, they said there was an explosion.
But it's like very unclear as to whether somebody exploded
something or if the house was on fire and then
just like explosions came from the house burning that much.

(02:28:04):
But right now, quite obviously people are on edge, and
I think if a judge has a house burned down,
maybe somebody was targeting them.

Speaker 2 (02:28:12):
Because she had just denied or put a restraining order
against getting voter information to the administration. Am I saying
this right?

Speaker 1 (02:28:22):
There was some interaction information. There was some interaction between
this judge and the Trump administration. Which kind of led
people to look at this and go, well, hold on,
so they'll they'll find out. We'll see when the information
comes back if this was Arson who was like some
political attack, or if it was something different entirely they
unveiled a brand new bridge. It's insane to think about.

(02:28:44):
China can make things fast. How long did this take took?
It's two thousand feet above a river. It took the
commuter time from any in China from two hours down
to two minutes. And just the overall scope of this
thing is that it is crazy looking. There's a restaurant
up on top of it. For me, no way, way,

(02:29:08):
way way up in the air. It's this massive, massive
bridge they built in I think under.

Speaker 2 (02:29:13):
Two years, being the first car to drive on them.

Speaker 4 (02:29:17):
Oh man, uh, it's something else.

Speaker 1 (02:29:20):
But yeah, this this was built over in China and
has many features, including a restaurant up on top. All right,
that'll do it for us today. Let's get the hell
out of here.

Speaker 4 (02:29:30):
Here goes nothing. Let's do today.

Speaker 1 (02:29:32):
I learned the.

Speaker 11 (02:29:33):
Following information may make you feel smarter, but will not
actually increase your IQ.

Speaker 4 (02:29:38):
So don't get cocky.

Speaker 12 (02:29:39):
It's done.

Speaker 1 (02:29:40):
What we call today it is Today learned for a Monday,
October sixth, twenty twenty five.

Speaker 4 (02:29:48):
Today I learned this movie.

Speaker 1 (02:29:50):
Series hold On Home Alone. That's correct. Today learned Home Alone.
Actor Macaulay Culkin. You know what his middle name is,
Cully McCaulay.

Speaker 2 (02:30:03):
It's Louise.

Speaker 4 (02:30:04):
It's not Louise.

Speaker 1 (02:30:05):
No, I don't know. McAuley Colchin's middle name is mcaullay cocin.
So his name is mccaullay mcaullay cocin Cocain. That is
his legal name, parents his middle name. I think he
might have changed it at some point. His middle name
is macaulay Colchin, So his name is officially mccaullay, mccaullay
cocin Cocain. Sounds like a law firm much, but there

(02:30:29):
it is Taylor in the Guinness World Record.

Speaker 3 (02:30:31):
It does look funny on Wikipedia. I gotta say the Guinness.

Speaker 1 (02:30:36):
World Record for the largest feet on a living person
not held by Sea Lane, despite the rumors, un sold
by Jason Rodriguez. And his feet are one feet four
inches long on his right foot and one point thirty nine. Okay,
just give me a measurement, man. So it doesn't say
what size shoes he's got the biggest one Taylor in

(02:30:57):
this band. Who is correct? Keith Moon, the drummer for
the who was fond of blowing up hotel toilets. He
started with cherrybombs and graduated to dynamite, which is a
bad thing. Once, in response to a noise complaint, Moon
asked the hotel manager to stay while he went to
the bathroom. He returned and then waited for the toilet

(02:31:19):
to explode. A good time. Thank you so much for
hagging out with us. We do appreciate it. We're back tomorrow,
same time, the same place, Miss Eddy of the show.
