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

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Ready to party?

Speaker 3 (00:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (00:08):
What you know? Good enough?

Speaker 4 (00:11):
Right?

Speaker 5 (00:11):
Like?

Speaker 6 (00:12):
Well, it looked like a faded out Christmas on the stream.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Oh, just the right colors here for those of you watching.
I thought this was more peach, but I can't speak
on colors. I'm colored.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
And looks like we're about to enlist in the military.

Speaker 7 (00:29):
Yeah, a little bit like a punk Christmas going on.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
I gotta tell you this is a sad military. If
it's YouTube, inside.

Speaker 6 (00:37):
The U ranks of the army will see what Robin
Williams did in that movie.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
We Sea Too Far. Robin Williams is a national treasure,
You masochist? How could you do this? Okay, we are
going to take a quick break and forget all this happened.
And I know it's two minutes into the show, but

(01:01):
you gotta wash that out somehow.

Speaker 7 (01:03):
Police, I didn't say anything.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
All right, Fine, let's put her ears the ground, her
figures on the pulse to se what's happening to this great, big,
wide world of ours? And we go to boy, does
this lady seem to have a target on her back?
That Katie Porter lady is in the horror video There
is here.

Speaker 7 (01:18):
There are some things in her way as far as
this California gubernatorial race, but if she gets in and there,
we're not calling her Governor Karen. By the end of
this she looks like Governor Karen. Somebody wants her.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
She has spoken to many managers.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
Yeah, this this woman is a little She's like, you know,
she's very opinionated and bitchy. But most politicians are bitchy,
uh and opinionated and and to boot dumb, most of
them are that trifecta. I will absolutely attest to that
from the ones that I've met personally. But this woman,
they are just like all these clips are resurfacing about

(01:58):
her right now. The one we're going to start with
is this politician running for governor in California. She was
recording some video on her computer and one of her
aides walked by. In the background, here we go.

Speaker 8 (02:12):
And the state could lose out of my shot.

Speaker 9 (02:18):
That's actually it's not that vehicles.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
She's correcting her.

Speaker 7 (02:23):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
They're in a house and she's she's making some video.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
And that was nuts. Could you imagine?

Speaker 1 (02:36):
You know what? Though, not for nothing. If I'm recording
a video inside my house for some reason and people
are popping around by I might like, if I was
drilling a video over the top. I know it's over
the top, it's and it's not good behavior, but like,
if I was nailing it, come on, tell me if
you if you let me, let me give you this. Okay, Sabrina,

(02:56):
Let's say you're doing a voice spot for that mortgage guy.
Don you know how every once in a while when
you're doing a commercial, you're like, I am drilling this
right now, another field. No, it's all the time for you.
It's every day. Uh. And then Sea Lane comes into
your studio and you're like, find him now on that mortgage,
and she like goes and bust in. Aren't you gonna

(03:20):
be like you mother?

Speaker 2 (03:22):
I don't know if I would.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Man, try it, Sea Lan, try it today in the
middle of one of these.

Speaker 6 (03:26):
Yeah, she's I mean, that's just but I'm getting a
vibe that she just kicked it.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
Off, did she not?

Speaker 1 (03:34):
She was in the middle of a sentence, right.

Speaker 10 (03:37):
You're out of my shot.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
That's actually incorrect. I love how she's correcting her Okay,
this is kind of what Sea Lean does. It's like,
this is a similar thing, but he's not just behind
me yelling off.

Speaker 7 (03:55):
Mike, I'm that at some point that you always want
to be corrected. You never want to say anything wrong.
And then when I do it out, good guy. You
everybody can hear me. Right now, continue doing it. I
tell you all the time.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
I'm like, I'm talking out of my ass right now.
Make sure this is correct. I want to be correct
about what I say. I know there's all sorts of
people who rage if I get something wrong. I try
my best to do it. I don't know if she
was bothered by that or just the fact that somebody
popped up in the background, but she raged at this person. Okay,
you also were in my shot before that.

Speaker 8 (04:29):
Stay out of my shots.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Stay don't do your shots, and start again.

Speaker 9 (04:33):
With electric vehicle sabus money.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
I'm going to start again with electric vehicles saving us money,
this lady, and there's other stuff, like I thought this
was a little bit weird. This was after she found
out that Trump was going to win on Electric Night,
and she said, is second round. Imagine second, second round.
This is just recently, obviously in the last year. And

(04:57):
she said that when they found out that was the
winner of the election, her twelve year old daughter said something.

Speaker 7 (05:05):
And when she said this.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
I was like, what dude, Okay, what's that's happened?

Speaker 11 (05:09):
So on election I I was with I went to
pick up my daughter from water polo practice and she's twelve,
and she got in the car and she was crying,
and I.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Said, did someone punch you? Like?

Speaker 7 (05:18):
Water polo's a rough sport. I was like, did someone
hit you?

Speaker 1 (05:21):
You?

Speaker 11 (05:22):
What happened? And she said, Mom, Trump won, Trump's gonna win.
And what if I get raped and I need to
have an abortion. This is from a twelve year old,
my twelve year old daughter.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Okay, I too, take pause at that. Why is your
twelve year old daughter coming back from water polo with
this information? Why, like, was there any water polo in
going on at the time?

Speaker 6 (05:47):
Oh, you know, given the first clip we played before
that clip, it seems like, how was your day?

Speaker 9 (05:54):
Honey?

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Knock gray.

Speaker 6 (05:55):
It's because you think you might get raped at any moment.

Speaker 12 (05:57):
Now.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
I don't know family, but very clean house.

Speaker 7 (06:03):
One of the chances you think that they did just
play water polo practice and her daughter didn't think about
these things and she just said it.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
I think that's very chance.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
That very much happened, or that really that totally happened,
or that happened.

Speaker 7 (06:19):
I want to say.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
I know there's a lot of stuff to get into today,
but I want to I'm gonna send you guys something
because I do not want to show this. It's kind
of part of my point here, but I want to
send it to you personally and not like broadcast it
to people, because I want to see what you think
about this. So I just sent it to you. There.
There was a story yesterday that I just have to

(06:41):
I just have to say something about this, all right.
This started to go viral all over the place. It's
all over the state of Florida. The local news was
out there watching this and it's one of these stories
where there was a really fat dude and he's over
six hundred pounds and they had to bust down some
stuff and remove him from his house with a crane.

(07:03):
And they had a crane and they had the news
cameras there and they're filming this, and all the local
news outlets are like, you have to be there. That's
what I'm saying, you know what I mean, Like, I
want I want local news to have a little bit
of a reckoning on a couple of things. Local news.
We know what you're doing. We're not dumb. This guy

(07:24):
is a fatso, yes, he's a big, giant fatso. He's
well over six hundred pounds.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
So this is this is a very large person.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
He's he's morbidly obese is not the word. He's a
man that is so big that he needs to be
removed from his domicile with a giant crane right to
save his life. But does he need to be on television? No?

Speaker 6 (07:44):
And if he I mean, but this is a obvious
news shot. But if you continue looking at the clip
that you sent us, yeah, hang on, muted paramedic, the EMT. Yes, yes,
taking footage. And I know it's a sight to see.
But god, I mean, at first thought, if I was him,

(08:07):
I'm like, yeah, I'll eat more.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
No one's got my back.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Can we think of for one second the giant fat
guy who's in the middle of this moment here and
you can say all you want, like, well, Shawn, he
ate and he got himself there and now this is
your moment of embarrassment, dude, Like, for all the people
who pretend to have empathy, think for a second about
being so fat that they crane you at your house.

Speaker 6 (08:29):
And you think that in the embarrassment, he's gonna be like,
all right, I'm gonna lose five hundred pounds.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
I not that rosy at that weight.

Speaker 9 (08:36):
What.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
By the way, why do you think he stayed inside
past a certain point? Oh, He's like, I can't get
out of this house, and I know the crane will come,
the emergency crews will come. Everybody's secretly laughing at me.
The news is broadcasting me. Why is the news involved
in a six hundred plus pound man being removed from
his house because he's too fat? How is that even

(08:59):
something remotely newsworthy?

Speaker 7 (09:01):
What? Manias?

Speaker 11 (09:04):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (09:05):
There was a couple in Florida that did it, because
when I saw the video, I looked up the guy's
name and there was several stories of the people who
were covering, you know, the very large man removed via
crane from his house to provide life saving medical assistance.
What is And it's like, I get that, it's interesting.
I get that this man needed medical assistance, but did

(09:28):
he really also need everybody to be like, aha.

Speaker 6 (09:33):
Are you getting the vibe that is a have versus
fascination or.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
It's a mixture of things. But the point is, like,
what's the what's the overall point of showing this other
than to shame this big fat guy right? It sucks.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
I can't imagine what he's going through right now.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
That's so embarrassing. That is so unbelievably embarrassing. Leave him alone,
Leave him alone. There are so many stories that you
could focus and even like funny ones and stuff where
people do something dumb to get them. But this guy's
grand crime is eating his way to be so fat
that he has to be craned out of his apartment.

Speaker 7 (10:10):
And in that moment, I'm sure he.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Just absolutely positively wants to die.

Speaker 7 (10:16):
Can you give him a breather?

Speaker 2 (10:18):
No, he doesn't want to die ambulance on the job.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
But how's he feeling when they're all videotaping him when
he's when he's on a palette being carried above the
ground to put him in the bat of ad Yeah? Yeah,
like like a giant piece of sad that he's going
to be a trek somewhere. I don't know. For me,
I just wanted to shout that out because I see

(10:42):
that kind of crap too much, and there's so many
great funky, fun stupid viral news stories. I live and
die by the baby, but I think about the people
at least a little bit in those stories.

Speaker 7 (10:54):
I think about what.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
The outcome is for the people on the other side here.
And there's nothing that we gain from seeing the fatso
guy on the on the crane. Just and by the way,
you could you could just say, you could just say
a very large man was removed from his home, or
blur his face or something. For God's sake, anyhow, face really.

Speaker 13 (11:17):
Still makes it kind of monymizes the dude. You can't
you can't really, you can't really form a lineup. You
know if this guy was but you could implicated in
a crime and that you needed an eyewitness.

Speaker 7 (11:34):
To pick out a lineup.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah, I mean, I like, I see your daily mail s.

Speaker 6 (11:40):
Obviously, now consider physically bangs right now, look at all
the jokes that are being said. Now, I also am curious,
but I'm not doing this in a haha way.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
I want to see what happens after this.

Speaker 6 (11:57):
So he gets loaded up, and then what is the
spital Like, okay, happens after that?

Speaker 1 (12:02):
Can we can we then think about it from this level,
send a little crew with him, videotape it and say, sir,
we're not going to release this right now. What we're
going to do is chronicle your journey that life. This
is part two Electric boogoloo a Part seven because they've
done a lot of those I know, but making fun.

Speaker 7 (12:20):
Of the guy talking about it.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
All those things are okay, But like, do we need
the videotape him and put it all over the news?

Speaker 7 (12:27):
I think I think the person that videotaped this is
not a newsperson.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
No, but they did show it, did show it, and
the Daily Mail wasn't the only one to see this.
When I looked earlier, there was a couple of stories
about the actual guy. I just feel bad for him,
and even this.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
Krane him back into his house, like you.

Speaker 7 (12:49):
Got to get him smaller. He's got to get smaller.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Even the thing.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
They are going to need a big shot, a large shot,
but it can happen.

Speaker 7 (13:00):
I don't actually know if if ozempic would would be
great for this guy, like he needs why his.

Speaker 6 (13:06):
Legs don't work at this point, he has not walked
in a long time.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
See, maybe there is a point they're filming this.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
No, but look, with somebody's this fat. I've seen this before.
I saw one. It's where I used to say, are
you hungies? Because I watched this documentary about this guy
who is like a thousand pounds and or maybe it's
the woman. Was it the woman who was like a
thousand pounds? And somebody came around the It wasn't that
of mixing those two up. It was a young, younger

(13:32):
guy and his mom's like, are you hungies, Billy? And
in the morning they chronicled like everything this this giant
dude eight and it was astronomical, So I don't know,
maybe I feel like that would still help it somewhat.

Speaker 6 (13:45):
The whale as disturbing and hard to watch as that
movie was, uh huh, really puts.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
Him insight into what that day to day is, Like.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
I agree, I absolutely agree. I think that's like still
I haven't seen it, Oh don't it's I think it's
Brendan Fraser Tour to force performance. It makes it makes
being that large really really sad.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
And also shout out to the special effects people.

Speaker 6 (14:08):
Because I've never seen I mean, it's just so detailed
and greasy and yeah, it was a lot.

Speaker 7 (14:13):
What's crazy for this story is that it said the
reason they were, you know, forklifting this guy out of
his apartment or whatever wherever was because he had a
sudden medical crisis. Now, typically in a sudden medical crisis,
you can see in some of the pictures there are
multiple ambulances in the background, and an ambulance is good

(14:34):
for your your average sudden medical crisis. How long did
it take to rally up this gigantic crane to get
him over there?

Speaker 1 (14:44):
It's not something hard hats need.

Speaker 13 (14:46):
The hard hats, yeah they do.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
Do you think a hard hat was, yes, they need.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
The whole thing fell down.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
I just like the idea of what are you hauling today? Like, well, boy,
if you only tony, this is a whole thing real quick,
a couple of things before we kick everything off full
force today and we have a lot to get into.
Somebody interviewed Jimmy Kimmel as an update to all of
his stuff, and it looks like his ratings are almost
back down to where they were before the whole Trump

(15:16):
kerfuffle with the FCC started. Jimmy Kimmel said he would
love to have Donald Trump as a guest on his
show any shot that ever happened.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
No, I mean if but then again, Trump.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
Would dare I would watch it. I watch it. If
they went on and Trump loves like ratings and this
sort of stuff, maybe he would say.

Speaker 7 (15:39):
You want it, let's go. Yeah, But does Trump love
ratings enough to boost Jimmy Kimmels.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
That's the thing, Like he might say, I do love ratings,
and I do love a spectacle, why would I give
it to.

Speaker 6 (15:51):
You at make that as the excuse, says like that's
the only reason why he wants him on. But then again,
you could see if if Trump did go on and
it gets a huge rating spike, then if it goes
and plummets down again, then obviously that was the reason.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
If his days up, then another story. But there's a
reason why you shouldn't do it.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Well. He also gets to get his side across to
Jimmy Kimmel's audience. If he thinks every single night Jimmy
Kimmel is lying to his audience and being anti Trump
and all this stuff, super awesome opportunity to get on
there and fight back against that. But do we think everybody,
let us know what you think. Do you think that
Trump would do it? Would he accept it? And after
all of this go on Jimmy Kimmel, Yes or no?

(16:36):
And why send us a dispatch over at Thenewsjunkie dot
com tips at the News Junkie dot Com. Phil from
Baltimore emails this show. Hey, Sean, I've been listening for
months on the iHeart app and usually enjoyed this option
over other podcast options. Well, good, good, I hope that
continues today. From out of nowhere, ads start playing right
in the middle of your content, not when you're taking

(16:57):
your usual blert breaks, but in the middle of a sentence,
and an AD starts running for whatever iHeart has decided
they want to sell the space for. This has happened
several times and it really disrupts the flow of the show.
I don't know if you have any say on how
they streamed the podcast. Just thought you should know, and
he says, saying I just watched recently for the first
time from YouTube. I enjoy how you interact with fans
that helped pass the time during the breaks. I've been

(17:18):
listening many, many times, but the breaks go on long
sometimes no need to ramble on. Keep up the great work,
says Phil in Baltimore. I don't know why that's happening.
I'm not changing anything about how I post the podcast.
At the end of the day, they do inject ads
in there, and it's supposed to be in places that
are more comfortable and better. Yeah, I mean, I don't
know what to tell you. The YouTube's always a good backup,

(17:38):
but I heart usually is going to be a good
experience for you. So hopefully that was just a fluke.
Report back with more tips at thenewsjunkie dot com. Sir, Okay,
quick break, what's going on? Did Trump stop the war?
Did Trump stop this a huge war never ending seemingly
and guys, everybody kind of laughed at him, who hates him?
And Trump step up and said, here's my got people

(18:01):
on board? Did he?

Speaker 7 (18:02):
Did he do it?

Speaker 1 (18:03):
And now they're literally talking about the Nobel Peace Prize
for Trump and should he get it if he stopped
this war that nobody else seemingly could stop.

Speaker 7 (18:13):
I don't know. We'll take a look.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
At what's actually happening here and see what you think
is the show rolls on that. Plus this might be
Teacher of the Year material that we'll do before this story. Okay,
we'll get to the we'll get to that stuff with
the war, which some of you will hate. But I
have a distraction story first Teacher of the Year material.

(18:37):
Wait til you hear what this person did in a
classroom that is coming up next in the News Junkie.

(19:00):
I want to hear from you today. I want to
hear your voice. What do you have on your mind
and what's just what's going on in that head of yours.
Send us a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com. I
already got a bunch of those coming in, and we'll
also get to your emails tips at the news Junkie
dot com. But first, I want to talk about this teacher.
All right, This teacher is unhinged. She's from my neck

(19:23):
of the woods. I was born and a little state
often forgot called Vermont. That's where I was born, all right.
I was born in Vermont in nineteen eighty one, just
about twenty five thirty miles or something away from the
border with Canada. And I went back all the time
to Vermont, but I never went to I think I

(19:45):
only went to a little bit of like preschool or
something maybe in Vermont before moving down to West Palm Beach, Florida.
And I really hate that I missed being in this
teacher's class I mean, this is like, this is like
peak teaching here. And before we get into anything with
any kind of political slant, I wanted to set you
up with something. Well, it's a nice distraction. I would say,

(20:07):
this teacher was having a good time in the classroom.
She was having a good time in the classroom. Let's
go to NBC five and see what they said happened
in this teacher's classroom. Here we go.

Speaker 14 (20:19):
Police found cocaine on the belongings of forty seven year
old Melissa Martin that were in her classroom while we
were sitting on Wednesday. She was with an eighth grade
class at the time.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
She's a eighth grade teacher. They found below and her
belongings at the school. So she's like, all right, let's teach,
let's get going here, and it like some of these
details are so magnifie.

Speaker 14 (20:43):
And also now know that it was concerns from students
in that class that prompted the school to call nine
one one. Now parents I spoke with tell me they're
not just concerned about the lack of communication from the
school around this incident, but also for their student safety
as they went back to class today. Three mom says,
when she asks her kids how was school, the last
thing she'd ever expect to hear is what her son

(21:05):
told her while getting off the bus Wednesday.

Speaker 12 (21:08):
He looked visibly shaken and upset, and I asked what
had happened today, and he said that his substitute teacher
was clearly on drugs acting.

Speaker 6 (21:24):
I mean, eighth graders, there are some that will experiment drugs.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
Yeah, probably you probably tried something by eighth grade, Sabrina, would.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
I think just booze at that point? I didn't.

Speaker 6 (21:39):
I think the first drug would have been weed, and
that was in high school. That being said to say
adult was clearly on drugs.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
She must have been acting wild.

Speaker 7 (21:52):
Buckle up, eighth grader.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
How many people have you been around that have been
on Maybe not? Maybe not that. That's what I was
going to say, though, I think even though you might
not know that specifically, you do know what messed up is.
I think you've like you've been around somebody messed up,
and you're like, well, this person's messed up. Whatever you
think that is.

Speaker 12 (22:09):
His substitute teacher was clearly on drugs and was acting crazy.
That's where his exact word.

Speaker 14 (22:17):
Britain's son, an eighth grader in Barrytown, tells his mom
that his substitute teacher, forty seven year old Melissa Martin,
had been nodding off during class.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
Okay, he says.

Speaker 14 (22:26):
When Martin abruptly ran out of the classroom, concerned led
him to follow.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
All right, so now we know she's in the classroom,
she's nodding off. You're right, that doesn't sound symptomatic of cocaine.

Speaker 6 (22:36):
But but that kid is teacher's pet and nosie little punk.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
Yeah, I mean to follow your teacher, that's weird.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Well, she did run abruptly.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
She would you have followed your teacher.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
Maybe because I'd be interested into what was going to
happen next, And he should have been because more happened here,
let's listen in.

Speaker 12 (22:56):
So he followed her, and I guess found her and
she said to him, hey, Teddy, why are you off
your leash? And my son was like what and she
was like, yeah, Teddy, you get back inside. He was
concerned and later found out that Teddy is actually her
dog's name.

Speaker 7 (23:16):
He thought the kid was a dog.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
The kid chases her down, she's high as a kite,
and the teacher is like, Teddy sick, you're out without
your leash, Shan, right now, boy, what are you even
doing Teddy? And he's like, what what's happening?

Speaker 7 (23:34):
Teach?

Speaker 1 (23:34):
What's going on?

Speaker 14 (23:35):
In Attendant Joanne Canning says Martin has been a permanent
substitute in the district for about three years. Students' concerns
prompted the school to call nine when one just before
eleven Wednesday morning. Police say Martin's unusual behavior was linked
to cocaine use.

Speaker 15 (23:50):
There's nothing that we have dealt with in my nearly
thirty years year.

Speaker 14 (23:55):
Police say they found the drug on Martin's jacket and
backpack in the classrooms.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
She's just us.

Speaker 15 (24:00):
Did we have cited her for her possession of cocaine
and reckless endangerment based on the fact that she was
under the influence, well, she was in control of the
students in her classroom, killing law.

Speaker 14 (24:11):
Despite the concerning situation, parents should feel confident that their
students are safe at school, right.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
Yeah, don't worry, nothing to worry about him.

Speaker 6 (24:18):
I mean, she wasn't violent, no getting run out of
the room, and she did think a student was a dog.

Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, that was that's problematic. Mind problematic.

Speaker 6 (24:29):
I think that they should test whatever she had in
her pocket because there has to be many a more
adults her age that I think they bought cocaine and
are now thinking humans or.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Dogs could be, could be that she got anyone else,
couldn't be. I mean, I don't know a fentanyl. You
never know, but I'm assuming at some point they test
whatever they've grabbed here.

Speaker 7 (24:55):
But they said that the stuff they found in her
jacket tested positive for cocaine. I wonder if they, you know,
if this was I think.

Speaker 6 (25:02):
How many teachers are on cocaine and don't get caught.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
A decent amount, probably unfortunately. But here's the thing. Maybe
she was on all sorts of other things. And then
she gets in the classroom and she's like, I'm fading
fast here. Yeah, and she goes, no, let's go what
they got dogs everywhere? Baby, just freaking out, freaking out

(25:25):
of the classroom. What do you think because this ever
happened to you? Probably not, I'm guessing, but we'll take
your stories regardless.

Speaker 7 (25:31):
So I supposed to remember eighth grade and go back
and see.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
She tried a mental breakdown in front of me for.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
Really not drug, not not brought on by drug use.

Speaker 4 (25:42):
No.

Speaker 6 (25:42):
I think after the fact she retired and was on
some sort of like relaxing anti anxiety medical.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
Yeah, it makes sense. Well, give us your thoughts regardless.
How do you do that? Well, two ways. One, you
can record a video or audio dispatch, that's what they're called,
and that's how you get your opinions on the show.
You can do that at any time, no matter when
you're listening to this, no matter what time it is.
You got thoughts about what's going on in the show.
As of late, you're allowed to join us get for

(26:11):
this huge audience. So make today the day. Go over
to the website thenewsjunkie dot com and record a video
or audio dispatch right now. If you're a little shy
about that, well you can always email the show. And
if you want to put anonymous on top, I won't
even say your name or anything, so anonymous if you
want to be anonymous, but otherwise you'll probably get your
name said tips tips at thenewsjunkie dot com. All right,

(26:37):
some emails coming in real quick. This person jay to
Tip to the news junkie dot com says about that
man who is videotaped being removed from his house by
a crane because he was so fat. I wonder if
the fat man had consent to be videoed at his
own home. He was outside when they were like, it

(26:57):
looked like it was somebody upstairs or something filming down
as Yeah, just on his Instagram, because I think that
came from somebody's Instagram. Yeah, yeah, I mean it was
definitely a vertical video.

Speaker 16 (27:11):
Right.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
Like Anonymous emails the show and says, part of the
problem is people don't understand obesity. There are people with
various conditions. This includes prater Willie syndrome. Also, people could
be deficient of enzymes or genes. People don't understand that
under eating does not cure obesity, says Anonymous. Okay, thank

(27:34):
you for your feedback. Yours too, bubbling in right now,
junk dot com.

Speaker 7 (27:38):
Other contributing factors I've seen. I don't think this show
is necessarily about obesity, but it was about one of
those people who have like an unusually large tumor, you know,
how they get those like you know, and they just
wait so long to seek medical attention, and they just

(27:59):
have these tumors that to be like, you know, sixty
eighty whatever pounds and it's just they get to a
point where they're bedridden because they can't walk around with
this giant, you know, tumor.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
It's crazy.

Speaker 7 (28:11):
And one of the reasons that I saw in one
of those TV shows that they let it get that
big without the medical attention is because the person had
like severe agoraphobia.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Oh okay, because they couldn't even get outside.

Speaker 7 (28:24):
Yeah, they like they you know, uncomfortable in the outside
around people, and they just let it go because they
really had this intense fear of going out in public.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
God, that's like a damned if you do, damned if
you don't kind of thing, like you're really just stuck. Well,
that that was one of the big stories getting attention
to this guy well over six hundred pounds by seven
hundred eight hunred punds removed from his house by a big,
giant forklift on a palette and then everybody's filming the
poor dude.

Speaker 7 (28:56):
Not not a great moment for They had to film it,
you know, some of them for insurance reasons, to make
sure that thing was rigged up correctly.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
That's why the hard hats were there. If it drops,
all hell break and lose, all right, we'll talk about
the situation with possible peace breaking out here. We've got
to talk about publics in the news and for a
very interesting reason. A lot honestly to get into. But
we'll keep those two things for next and we'll get
into that when we come back. That is coming up

(29:25):
next in the news junkie. All Right, a couple of
things to work in. But one a lot of people

(29:47):
are like, it ain't gonna happen. This is a pie
in the sky thing. You're not going to get any piece.
Trump's been out there saying like, I'm ending all the
wars right, and he.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Been credited and ending, according to some speeches.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
He has been legitimately, he's got a point. He has
been involved in wrapping up a lot of these conflicts
around the world. There was a huge issue with India
and Pakistan, and they've been fighting for a very long
time in Indian and Pakistan, and Trump got involved and
they zipped that up and they moved past it. There's

(30:24):
been other wars where he like he jumps in, hate him,
love him whatever. The guy seems to be making some
moves here. And if Trump is successful in stopping the
war in Gaza, ending this brutal war that I continue
to tell you, no matter where you are, whether you
support Israel, whether you support the Palestinian people, I don't

(30:47):
care where you're on the spectrum. Just put Gaza into
Google Earth and just zoom in on anywhere and look
into the destruction that's happened there. And you too, even
though I like, I'll shout shout it in the moon
that Hamas is a bunch of terrorists to lunatics, you
too will want things to end there. But what's crazy

(31:08):
to me is there's still people who seem to root
against this. Like how unhinged are you if you don't
want to root for peace just because of the guy
that's in the White House, you know what I mean
That That to me is like that's craziness. That shows
a level of partisan ship that's nuts to me. And
then the Trump floats the Nobel Peace Prize thing. I
remember him saying that not even that long ago. Let

(31:28):
me see, we could find the clip real quick.

Speaker 7 (31:30):
Just throw it at the back of your mind there.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
Well, he said, like I never get it. I should
get it, but they're never gonna give it to me.
But I don't even want them to offer I forgot.
There was a clip of him talking about See if
you could find that clip of him talking about that
sea land. I don't know, it wasn't that long ago.
And he's like, I really deserve it, but they'll never

(31:55):
give it to me. It was a whole thing. But
we'll play that if we can. But Trump is now
in talks, and there's people suggesting, including the Prime Minister
of Israel who posted, give at real Donald Trump the
Nobel Peace Prize. He deserves it and like an ai
weird image, Trump with a massive Nobel Peace Prize around

(32:18):
his neck.

Speaker 7 (32:18):
I think if I'm to believe this, he's said it
quite a few times. Okay, this is every time Trump
said he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.

Speaker 4 (32:28):
Okay, sure, and you trying, sure, you should be able
to get the Noble I said, I stopped seven Wars.
So what they're trying to do with the Epstein hoax
is get people to.

Speaker 16 (32:38):
Talk about that instead of speaking about the tremendous success
like ending seven wars.

Speaker 9 (32:43):
I ended seven wars.

Speaker 17 (32:44):
Nobody's going to talk about because they going to talk
about the Epstein whatever.

Speaker 11 (32:48):
Thousands of young people, mostly young people, are dying every
single week.

Speaker 7 (32:53):
If I can save that there's another third time, or
by be.

Speaker 4 (32:58):
Just being me, or by using a very strong tariff
system that's very costly to Russia.

Speaker 7 (33:05):
Give me a second.

Speaker 1 (33:06):
Let me find where he actually says, yeah, he Hasn't
you talking.

Speaker 6 (33:10):
About past Nobel Peace Prize winners, I guess campaign for
themselves prior to winning the prize, or is this a first?

Speaker 1 (33:21):
I don't know. I'm not sure. I'm not sure if
anybody's been like, you know what, I deserve it and
then people go, you're right, you actually do deserve it,
and they push them forward. But I do know. Let's
say that this is successful, and boy do I hope
it is? Boy do I hope this plan to stop
the war in the Middle East is successful?

Speaker 7 (33:38):
And you should too.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
No matter how orange man bad you are, like how
much you hate Trump, you should hope that there's success
here too.

Speaker 7 (33:45):
Stop being crazy, and.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
If Trump is able to get some sort of lasting
peace in the Middle East and start rebuilding things for
these people in Gaza.

Speaker 7 (33:54):
And then let's say, let's say he zips.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
It up and stops the death of all these young
men in Ukraine, these Ukrainian soldiers and these Russian soldiers
dying for inches of territory. If he zips that up,
then why shouldn't he get the Nobel Peace Prize? Literally,
if he was able to solve both of those issues
that seemingly no one else on planet Earth could solve

(34:17):
and he zips in, if it works like legitimately, why
shouldn't he get the Nobel Peace Prize? I got this
clip from February the.

Speaker 18 (34:24):
President, you managed to get this sneel done. Some say
a lot of people say that the men managed to
do that to get a Noble pos Prize. Do you
say that you'll be able to get all the hospitals
back home? And what would happen if you hear from
THEE give me a Nobel.

Speaker 17 (34:38):
You were talking about, I deserve it, but they will
never give you.

Speaker 1 (34:43):
My rhetoric, Yeah, that's what we were talking about. From February,
he said they will never give me a Nobel Peace Prize.
I deserve it, but they'll never give it to me.
And to those of you who are most ardently against Trump,
I seriously ask you, like, let let's say hypothetical world,
those wars, the war in Gaza, the war in Ukraine
get zipped up and Trump is at the forefront of

(35:04):
solving those one thousand percent. He's the one responsible for
what's happening right now, with the ceasefire, with the hostages
about to be released, hopefully fingers crossed, knock on wood,
all of those things. Right, If he does those things,
why wouldn't you? I think you look like a buffoon
if you're like, oh, I'm not going to give him
any credit for that. That's an accomplishment no matter who

(35:25):
does it. That is an accomplishment for anybody to be
able to step up and do that and to find
peace in these places where none seem to exist. Damn,
I'm all for it. I don't care what you think
about that, or what you call me or whatever that
I want it. I'm rooting for peace every single time,
no matter who is the person who ushers that in.
But give us your thoughts. Do you think he should

(35:46):
get the Nobel peace price? Do you think he would ever?
Do you think they're actually going to have a deal. Here,
here's some of Fox talking about this peace plan that
I guess everybody's agreed on.

Speaker 4 (35:56):
Let's go over it so you have an understanding.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
With them plan?

Speaker 16 (36:00):
Is this?

Speaker 7 (36:00):
What did Michael Scott come up with it.

Speaker 1 (36:02):
These are the main points of the plan and I'm
a twenty point plan and Brian Kilmead is willing to
do this for us on Fox News because there are
no hobos involved. There are zero homeless people involved in
this framed out.

Speaker 4 (36:16):
Over in Cairo, Egypt. War will end immediately, so the
fighting that's still continuing, we sort smoke coming out of
Gaza will cease.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
I don't think that'll be much of a problem.

Speaker 4 (36:26):
All hostage, all live, with the cease to be returned
within twenty four seventy two hours. We don't know when
the clock is so actually starts ticking, but let's say Monday,
at which time you'll have twenty plus alive and over
fifty bodies collected right now.

Speaker 7 (36:39):
Right now that's.

Speaker 4 (36:39):
Taking place, we understand between all the different factions.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
There are groups that so let me go through this
because he's going slow. Israel will release two hundred and
fifty life sentence prisoners plus one thy seven hundred gozzens
who have been jailed since the start of the war.
HAMAS members could be given amnesty. They're going to try
to get them out of the country. Hamas will have
no role in the governance of Gaz, which was a
key sticking point. Gaza will be governed by a temporary

(37:03):
transitional government which will be led by possibly Tony Blair,
former Leader of the UK or former Leader of England,
and also potentially Trump and others on some sort of
panel the Board of Peace chaired by Trump and others
including Tony Blair. Possible path the Palestinian self determination in
statehood is the next point of this peace plan. So

(37:27):
if that all goes through, I mean, that seems to
me to be a huge w Like, that's what I
want to see. I want to see if these people
stop getting bombed. I want to see an end to
all of the violence that we've seen in the Near East,
the Middle East, whatever you want to call it. And
I don't care who's responsible for doing it. If it's Trump,
I'll give him the W. You should too. Otherwise it
just doesn't make any sense. You hate the guy so much,

(37:48):
you want to you want bad to befall other people
around the world. That's dumb, isn't it. Let me know
what you think, Sena Dishbacher thefschunkie dot Com. Yeah, well, anybody,
even if I like, even if I absolutely hated somebody
if they did something that I thought was good, I'd
be like, Damn, there you go. I mean, this is
kind of a policy that I try to have. I've
talked about this so many times. I think Stephen King

(38:09):
politically is so dopey. But when I see weirdos going
after him and be like, that's why you suck, bro,
Your books all suck. Just watched it too, because it's October.
Why not do some Halloween action. What a great movie.
The dude is talented. He's such a good writer. He
might be a Dodo on things, but he's like, so
let people have wins, even if they're bad people sometimes

(38:33):
to you right anyhow, We'll see what you say about that.
Send us a dispatch Over at thenewsjunkie dot com. Somebody's
commenting about the teacher. The tips of the news Junkie
dot com says they found a teacher at the school
I went to, passed out at her desk from the
night before. Drugs prescribed to her were opiates and they
were involved, and she went to the pharmacy I worked for.

(38:55):
Kind of awkward, but thankfully I didn't know where directly
directly she was the swim coach. This teacher was thank
you for the email, appreciate it. Yeah, that was wild.
The story, if you missed it, was this teacher was
so high in the classroom she ran out of the
class and some kid chased her to see if she
was okay, and she thought the kid was her dog,

(39:17):
not on a leash.

Speaker 2 (39:18):
So what are you doing out of the house.

Speaker 7 (39:21):
Little unhinged?

Speaker 1 (39:22):
I guess you could say, let's work in one dispatch
real quick. Do we have time for this or do
we need to we do one? Yeah, let's do one
real fast. Here's a Jawa talking about twelve year olds
in the news.

Speaker 3 (39:36):
Hey, y'all, Hey, Unfortunately, a twelve year old probably could
come home being all upset about that. Unfortunately, like a
lot of parents have gotten their kids real young, all
into politics. My daughter who's twelve comes home with all
kinds of things and saying, well, is so and so
going to do this? Or are they going to do this?

(39:58):
And we try to like explain it in a way
we think is suitable for a twelve year old and
then tell her, but y'all shouldn't be talking about that,
like why don't you just have fun with your friends?

Speaker 1 (40:08):
Yeah? Please, I think.

Speaker 3 (40:09):
The twenty four hour news cycle is definitely getting to
the kids and they should not be getting all the
information they have.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
But if her child did it, if she's like this, yeah,
I agree. I think there are too many young kids
that tuned into the news.

Speaker 6 (40:26):
Now, consider that young of a kid who is getting
all that information and they tell them you can't talk
about it or don't listen to it.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
As a little kid, you're gonna.

Speaker 1 (40:37):
I wouldn't tell him that. No, no, I wouldn't tell
him that. I would just I would look at what
was going on, that the kid was focused on this
stuff to begin with, and try to see if we
could redirect that. Just as a parent, you know, it
would be like, no.

Speaker 7 (40:48):
The news is offline.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
I would just be like, why is this kid so
focused on this? And how can we open this child up?
Maybe get them involved in some more activities and stuff,
team sports and all that, all these great tractions. Being
a kid is such a blast and you should really
enjoy it and not be a doomer. But what it
did de Greta, you know, a little doom gobblin girl.
She just always up at this stuff and it seems

(41:11):
like it's not a great childhood to me, but tell
us what you think. Set a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie
dot com. When we come back, we'll talk about chaos
at Publics. What's happening in the aisles. You'll hear this
in just a moment because that is coming up next
in the news Junkie. There is a push now, I guess,

(41:45):
I guess Publics has said this is a grocery store
for those who are not in Florida. Publics has said
they're going to allow for open carry of guns in
their Florida stores after this open carry law went through,
and public said, here's their state man. Treating customers with
dignity and respect is a founding belief at Publics. In

(42:06):
any instance where a customer creates a threatening, erratic, or
dangerous shopping experience, whether they are openly carrying a firearm
or not, we will engage local law enforcement to protect
our customers and associates.

Speaker 7 (42:18):
Other stores like Walmart, Target.

Speaker 1 (42:20):
When Dixie, Sam's Club, and Costco have requested the customers
not bring guns open carry guns into their stores, and
my head went a couple of directions in this. The
first one is like, I think the open carry stuff
is stupid. I think most of it's stupid. I think
you deserve to have guns. I think guns are overall fine.
I think the Second Amendment is important and all of that.

Speaker 2 (42:41):
Sealed weapons have worked up pretty well.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
I think. I think concealed carry is just fine for everybody.
I think all the people that I've ever seen that
are these open carry people are dumb. I think even
gun owners will admit this, Like the open carry people
are weirdos who when you say it in public with
an assault rifle or whatever.

Speaker 19 (43:00):
Saying something to them, it seems will you say concealed
versus open? Like if you just have a gun that
is like on a holster, like a like a police
officer would, Yeah, is that that's not concealed, that's kind
of open, right, that is if you mean.

Speaker 1 (43:19):
You're rocking at like Bruce Willis in a movie where
he got like this strap over a like an undershirt kind.

Speaker 2 (43:24):
Of thing, like off the side like a cowboy.

Speaker 1 (43:29):
Okay, that I've seen visibly clipped into a belt.

Speaker 6 (43:32):
Now what I'm saying since open carry, like uh in
Miami not too long ago, is a guy who has
a like what looked to be a shotgun he strapped
to his back. It's ridiculous and that you know makes
people feel uneasy.

Speaker 1 (43:48):
Yeah, it does. And here's the thing. People will go, well,
tell your kids about guns and tell them not to
be scared about guns. No, what are you stupid. I'm
gonna tell my kid about all the things you should
be scared about in life that they should be scared about.
If I'm walking down the sidewalk in the middle of
the day and somebody's walking at me and they have
a semi automatic rifle slung around their shoulders, I'm leaving

(44:11):
peace out. I'm not.

Speaker 7 (44:13):
I'm not like well Brownley, just the second amendments.

Speaker 1 (44:15):
No, No, that's craziness. I don't want that. I don't
want that when I'm trying to get my avocados. I
don't want that when I'm trying to pick out some
pop tarts. I don't want that when I'm trying to
get my hamburger. Help Er, baby. I want to just
show know how to pick out an avocado. You bet
your ass a little squeeze right.

Speaker 9 (44:37):
In your hand.

Speaker 1 (44:38):
You just grab it, sniff it and squeeze it.

Speaker 6 (44:42):
If you squeeze it, and then it's off and you
put it back in the pile. Then whatever instacart shoppers
there's gonna grab it and send it to a house
I won't be able to eat it. All I know
is I imagine what that person had an open carry though,
then avocado pick it would be different.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
Huh. It's at gunpoint all the sudden. All I know
is that I don't want to have a gun inserted
into the equation, just swung around somebody's neck, because those
people are mostly weird odds. They just want like weird interactions.
Normal gun people don't do this. I know you, I
know what you do. You don't care about doing this stuff.
So I think more of the stores should say no. However,
I will say and you guys tell me your experience

(45:20):
on this. The publics that I have, they always always
when I go there have an armed police officer at
the front of the store.

Speaker 2 (45:30):
Like they're strapped. It's across their chest, they're holding what
seems to be a Yeah.

Speaker 7 (45:36):
That's because that public's always has homeless people. That public's
has a lot of homeless people. Are you saying that's
not normal? Most of the publics don't have like some
police officer that's on duty.

Speaker 1 (45:47):
Because what I'm saying is if somebody does go crazy
in the store and they're annoying people, at least an
armed officer would be able to approach that.

Speaker 7 (45:53):
I haven't noticed everyone doing it. I don't know if
yours has it because they've had more incidents there. I
know that there has been a gun related incident at
that publix, but that was very many years ago. Really yeah,
I think I think you know, don't quote me on that,
but I think that was it was that one, or

(46:14):
it was one that was similar to that one.

Speaker 2 (46:15):
All right, So I'll tell you this.

Speaker 6 (46:16):
I went to a bar that all of us have
been to and notice on the door was a sticker
that was no guns. It was very clear, and so
I asked Mike what's that all about? And it was
like the day of that law, you know, being in

(46:36):
that Someone came in and they're like, excuse me if
you you can't have that in the bar, and he's.

Speaker 2 (46:41):
Like, well, this is what we're allowed to do, blah
blah blah.

Speaker 6 (46:44):
Made a whole scene, right, they have to put the
sticker on. And that's what I fear with a lot
of people when it comes to just wanting to make
a scene. Wants that person to tell you no or
can you please put that away for the sake of
the other customers, and you're the next viral video on
TikTok or god forgetting even crazier person it starts to

(47:06):
open fire.

Speaker 1 (47:07):
I hope, I think, and I hope that the amount
of people that are interested in doing things like this
are very small. But I got to tell you, I
think a lot of these establishments should take an approach of, hey,
we're going to have our own security on premises if
we think that's necessary, and we're not allowing you to
open carry here. I can tell you flat out, if

(47:30):
my movie theater said we're going to allow open carry,
I would not go to see a movie there. I
already think about that now. I already think it's.

Speaker 2 (47:36):
Like Colorado can't see anything.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
Yeah, it's already a soft target kind of thing, and
it's nightmarish to think about. And they're like, well, you know,
we got to embrace this. Just sling your semi automatic
rifle around your neck and head on into the movie theater,
I would not go. I would not go in that case.

Speaker 7 (47:54):
I don't really mind or care about the people who
wear a fire arm like a police officer would yeah.

Speaker 1 (48:02):
Either, for the record, it's only the it's only the
open carry.

Speaker 7 (48:05):
Like no no atom that is technically open carry. I
think the where we're sort of mincing words here is
that there the term open carry carries a picture with
it of a dude with a rifle slung over his
shoulder inside of a walmart, just walking by picking out
can tomatoes.

Speaker 1 (48:26):
I understand what you're saying. I also don't want this
to be like something where it's an aesthetic choice, like
where somebody's like, look at my outfit and it now
features handguns around my waist and like, maybe that's less
of a jarring thing to run into. But I like,
I think it should be like concealed carry is fine, y'all, Like,

(48:47):
do concealed carry do you think protect yourself, protect your family?
Kick ass awesome, We'll fight with you.

Speaker 7 (48:52):
Sleaning a shotgun or or similar long rifle over your
back at public's is a weird look. It's it's performative.
I think I don't I don't get the desire same.

Speaker 1 (49:05):
And I'm not going to approach that person. I'm gonna
be like wary as hell of whoever that is, because
that's weirdo behavior to me, But let us know what
you think and set us a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie
dot com. A lot of you chiming in today, and
it's very very good to hear from you. Many of
you having incidents with wild teachers that we'll get into
at some point in time here during the show. But

(49:28):
as far as a good news stories, there was one
that I wanted to touch on. I don't know if
we have enough time here. We might have to do
this in the next segment, but there is the sweetest
story about a rescue of this eighty year old person.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
We're going to.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
Say, it's such a great story I want to I
wanted to swing that around with all the good, bad
and crazy that are happening on the show. In fact,
we will do that in the next segment, for sure.
We'll we'll bring that in and we could talk about
that here momentarily. Right now, let's work in at least
one of your opinions on the topic. Here is Andrew
talking about open carry in the grocery stores in Florida.

Speaker 20 (50:03):
At least, Hey guys, happy Thursday, Okay, quick to the point.
In my opinion, open carry is absolutely stupid. There's really
no point to it. It's that's just, you know, you're
trying to show everybody how small your thing is.

Speaker 7 (50:17):
As far as.

Speaker 20 (50:18):
Cops being, you know, in front of publics and stuff
like that with open carry. What's going to make the
difference between that and say, like a resource officer at
a school school shootings happen. What are the resource officers do?
Usually absolutely nothing because there are a bunch of pussies.
What are the cops gonna do?

Speaker 7 (50:31):
What's that one.

Speaker 20 (50:32):
Single cop gonna do if if someone goes into a
Publix and start shooting up the place with an AK
all the cop has is a freaking handgun on him,
what he's gonna be Run to his car and run
back inside. I doubt that openkerry is stupid. I don't
think any source should allow it. This state is absolutely ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
Sitting end of his rope, Thank you, Andrew, Appreciate that,
Appreciate your thoughts. I think a lot of police are
willing to run into a dangerous situation.

Speaker 7 (51:00):
I obviously hear about the ones that don't.

Speaker 1 (51:02):
We do, Yeah, for sure, I did see, and I
think solid point here, Like I'm in full agreement my
tie over on Chat? Where'd this go? Chat is going
too fast for me? Said? Like I said earlier, this
is just another form of virtue signaling.

Speaker 7 (51:17):
It very much is.

Speaker 1 (51:19):
It's like the people who want to put all their
politics on display for the world. These very political people,
the very political people, just they want to just vomit
it all over themselves like an aesthetic. And this is
absolutely another version of that. Like I'm going to do this,
and I'm going to get a reaction out of you,
and I'm gonna be like I'm allowed to do it,
Like Okay, that.

Speaker 7 (51:38):
Doesn't make you a good person.

Speaker 1 (51:40):
Yeah, yeah, But I mean I think that makes you
a bad person. I think like scaring kids and stuff
and purposely making a spectacle out of yourself in a
dangerous way, I think that makes you a bad person,
just personally. Andrew, thank you for the dispatch. And one more.
The TV has another direction to take this in.

Speaker 5 (52:00):
The bigger threats to public safety is not assault rifle
around someone's arm.

Speaker 2 (52:06):
It's eating the pop tarts and Hamburger Helper.

Speaker 1 (52:09):
Come on, get healthy, Sean. I want fired, but.

Speaker 7 (52:12):
I feel like it's I don't eat Hamburger Helper.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
But for like once a year. All right, I love
it and Hamburger helped me. I love it. It's good stuff,
but I don't eat it that much.

Speaker 2 (52:24):
Corn cook Hambert in the helper, right.

Speaker 7 (52:27):
Not necessarily.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
The sea Lane's broken all the rules on this, even recently.
I haven't had meat in it.

Speaker 2 (52:35):
Right, you have to add the meat.

Speaker 7 (52:36):
Right, you had to add the meat. Yes, I had
Hamburger helper for the first time in very many years.
It's just not something that I buy and we it
got brought up on the show. It was the day
you said Hamburger helped me, and I was like, I'm
going to have something tonight because I have some Hamburger
in the in the fridge that I need to use.
And when I went to make it, the ground beef was.

Speaker 2 (52:58):
Gray, and I was like, it's what I give you
for your birthday.

Speaker 7 (53:01):
No, the ground beef that I had bought from publics. No, No,
rifle on my shoulder was gray. It was not usable,
So I had to resort to frozen meat. H a'llah
like a stickum this kind of deal. So it was
a really really poor meal.

Speaker 2 (53:20):
A great gift for your BH.

Speaker 1 (53:22):
Well, we'll see what you think on all of this.
And so much more. Send us your dispatch your opinion
over at the news junkie dot com. But TD, I
assure you I'm I'm on the path. I mostly eat
healthy stuff. Cordy Cook's really healthy stuff. For lunch. Every day,
I have grilled chicken and my sticky rice. I've been
banging that down.

Speaker 7 (53:41):
For a while.

Speaker 1 (53:41):
Love that I like, probably had to eat every lunch. No,
I probably had that every lunch that I eat a.

Speaker 7 (53:46):
Home for.

Speaker 1 (53:49):
Two years now, almost all the time, just because it's
nice and clean and I dig it. And I'm trying
to lose that weight before the roast, and I have
so long. We got three weeks, three weeks from today,
the big roast event. I had some info about that
incoming today, which I'm excited to tell you about. Let
me make a note of that real quick. But the

(54:11):
idea was to drop some weight before the roast, so
I can take some of the sting out of somebody
saying like I'm chunky, you're fat, or whatever. And I'm
down from to fourteen I think to too two o
seven ish to eight to eight, so not all the way.
I got to get down to one ninety five by

(54:33):
the roast, I'll feel a little bit better at one
ninety five. If I can make it that far, I
think I might be able to do it.

Speaker 7 (54:39):
But thank how longer the first six pounds.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
Uh, it's been a couple of maybe a month, maybe
a month.

Speaker 7 (54:46):
Yeah, I'm making some progress. It's right.

Speaker 1 (54:52):
It's slow progress, but it's still progress. We're going to
take a quick break when we come back. You're the
dog saves the day? What happened?

Speaker 7 (55:01):
Wait until you hear this.

Speaker 1 (55:02):
There's some pretty amazing audio along with it, and that
is coming up next on The News Junkie. This is

(55:25):
an amazing, sweet, fantastic story to wash out all the
crazy controversial stuff we tend to do on the show.
I mean, that's just how it goes. This is where
we focus on viral news. Sometimes it's crazy controversial stuff.
Sometimes I'm pounding my fist. Sometimes it's some wild thing
that makes everybody laugh.

Speaker 7 (55:39):
It's about a.

Speaker 1 (55:40):
Plate full of food where you got lots of options
for you, and this one, I think is one. Everyone's
gonna lie a dog and you're gonna hear this dog
saving their owner and it's just a killer story. We'll
get to that momentarily, but man is the boom dropping.
It's been like fifteen minutes another Katie Porter video has dropped.

Speaker 6 (56:04):
This has gotta be that's archived. They were ready. There
was a whole shoulder like this is the day week.

Speaker 1 (56:11):
Huh Yeah, somebody's like keep dropping bombs. Man, this lady's
a bitch. We need to show more people about her.
And then one after another they're releasing these clips and
it's like a tactical takeout. Right now, this one is
supposedly her on some zoom. The woman who's running for
the California governor spot Katie Porter and has been seen

(56:33):
in a lot of awkward clips that are going viral.
This is the one where I guess she yells at
people on zoom.

Speaker 7 (56:38):
Oh, yes, this.

Speaker 8 (56:39):
Is why I didn't want to I need the lights off,
the bright lights. I'm so sorry, but I am about
to get on Bernard.

Speaker 9 (56:45):
I need you to turn these off pieces that are
killing me.

Speaker 1 (56:50):
Hang on one second, everybody, she does need the lights off.
It's blowing out the shot.

Speaker 8 (56:55):
Yes, yes, we should have yes, Okay, everybody, I'm.

Speaker 1 (56:59):
Not that Oh that seems like a troll. The lights.

Speaker 7 (57:07):
The sea Lady is super bright.

Speaker 1 (57:09):
It's killing me.

Speaker 7 (57:09):
Oh is it? Killing Sean.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
Sorry, looks great.

Speaker 1 (57:15):
Can't do the show like this. For god sake. They
shut the lights off, and now Katie Porter is sitting
in pitch black for those of you listening, Okay, that's
too dark. She's mad, she's big mad. She turned off
her camera and Mike, oh, got it together, KP.

Speaker 7 (57:33):
Can we not hear?

Speaker 1 (57:34):
I want to hear.

Speaker 7 (57:34):
If she's yelling at somebody, she's most likely.

Speaker 1 (57:41):
Oh she moved.

Speaker 2 (57:43):
Okay, everybody, I'm sorry. Oh god.

Speaker 7 (57:46):
So there was a lady in the background who waved
at the camera real quick and then ran out.

Speaker 6 (57:50):
She just realized that she was on camera and she's like,
that is four slashes after this is done.

Speaker 1 (57:56):
Damn, she's in the targets right now. Wow, who did
you pissed off? This lady? She really irritated somebody?

Speaker 7 (58:03):
All right, real quick? What actress could play Katie Porter
in a comedy movie? Three two one?

Speaker 1 (58:09):
Melissa McCarthy, Oh really, I heard her voice. That's yeah,
totally Melissa McCarthy. Listen to her talk. I was thinking,
and maybe this is like out there a little bit.
I was thinking in a couple of years, the girl
from Last of Us kind of looks like her a
little bit. She's got like a similar face to her.
But I would see that Melissa McCarthy working. Listen to

(58:31):
her voice, yeah, old that she sounds like her.

Speaker 8 (58:36):
Yes, yes we should have Yes, I'm not that k
he's so mad.

Speaker 7 (58:45):
This lady is a clip factory. Don't do this to me, please.
I saw I saw this video earlier today. Actually was
after we watched the first one of her where she
was screaming at get the f out of my shot,
and I was like, this one's not as exciting, but
mostly because she cut off her camera and Mike to
yell at these people. They were like they were like

(59:05):
gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter shoots her staff the death stare
after lighting Snaffooh well, we'll see what you think.

Speaker 1 (59:15):
About this and what's happening in your world with your
dispatches momentarily right now, excuse me momentarily, but right now.
It sounded like a skipped audibly there. Right now, I
want to talk about you or the dog, a dog
named e or boy.

Speaker 7 (59:28):
It was a hero. This sweet little.

Speaker 1 (59:31):
Dog, a sheriff's deputy from Okahalousa County had popped up
and the dog greets the sheriff officer, and the deputy goes, okay,
what's going on here? And the dog is like, like lassie.
The dog is like leading.

Speaker 6 (59:49):
Thee like goes up to the cop and then it's
turning around but then looking at the cop and then
turning around looking at the cop very clearly, I need
to lead you somewhere.

Speaker 1 (59:59):
That's crazy. If the dog is understanding that, it's such
a there's like a level of intellect going on there
with the dog where the dog's like I need to
make a scene kind of here. Here's how this played out.
Let's check it out.

Speaker 2 (01:00:11):
Ohry baby, where's your mama?

Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Where's your mama? Here's a dog?

Speaker 9 (01:00:16):
Oh oh, where's your mama.

Speaker 7 (01:00:23):
I'm touching man all right.

Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
She's running now following the dog.

Speaker 14 (01:00:27):
Great pace up, locator, Hey, I think what happened?

Speaker 7 (01:00:32):
What happened?

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
Kay?

Speaker 7 (01:00:34):
How were you would?

Speaker 1 (01:00:37):
I was in front of that house right there, and
then the dog ran up to me. So the dog
ran up to the cop and made a scene and
then brought the dog over to her.

Speaker 7 (01:00:46):
She's now on the ground hurt.

Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
This poor lady who is in her eighties, she's eighties,
six years old. She fell while she took the dog
for a walk, and I think the little dog e
or felt bad. Dog said, I'm out here trying to
get a walk in had pulled eighty four year old
woman or eighty eighty six year old woman, and I
knock her over. Now I got to get her some help,
and he did. The dog went and got the police.

Speaker 9 (01:01:09):
The dog bought you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:12):
He would leave coming back to me.

Speaker 12 (01:01:16):
He ran up to my car and I said, bring
me to your mommy and to your grand back cheer.
He come up to your car.

Speaker 7 (01:01:24):
Get her on the ground. Grandma, you're so good.

Speaker 2 (01:01:34):
Are you a good boy?

Speaker 9 (01:01:36):
You are?

Speaker 7 (01:01:37):
You are a good boy?

Speaker 2 (01:01:38):
Shot grandma's dress dogs.

Speaker 1 (01:01:46):
Yeah, that's what helped. It might be time for her
to stop dog sitting. Honestly, it might be a little bit. Uh,
it's time to retire the dog sitting for the grandma.

Speaker 2 (01:01:54):
I don't know viewers acting like that.

Speaker 7 (01:01:56):
You might need a dog.

Speaker 1 (01:01:59):
What a sweet dog, What a sweet dog. I love
this kind of stuff.

Speaker 7 (01:02:03):
Hallmarks might be an open carry that dog just in cause,
like your stuff goes down.

Speaker 1 (01:02:09):
Hallmark spelled h A U l M A r C
on YouTube. The dogs are smart, people are dumb. It's
the great uniter or should be. You know that you
treat your dog well, that you love your animal. It's
it's a Western thing. It's a mostly Western thing that
we've developed over the year where we're very close with
our animals. We treat our animals in a different way

(01:02:31):
where Michael Vick, but where most of us, the best
among us, treat our animals in a really, really decent way.
And it's because of moments like this, and I love that,
so shouts out eighty six year old grandma. Be careful, boy,
be careful. I hope nothing happens to you out there. Okay,
let's before we take a break. Here, there's one more

(01:02:53):
thing I wanted to work in. There's an email somebody
said I had a druggy fourth grade teach tips at
the News Junkie dot Com Happy Thursday, Sean Sabrina and
Uncle Chris, Uncle Chris. When I was in fourth grade,
which was in nineteen eighty nine, and about halfway through
the school year, they added a new teacher to floor.

(01:03:14):
They split up the classes to give her a class.
After about two weeks, she started to take us outside
right after lunch and we would stay in recess for
the rest of the day, which is about three and
a half or four hours. About a week later, she
would take us outside in the morning, we would come
back and go to lunch. She would take us back
outside and she would fall asleep on the picnic tables
in the playground. That happened for about eight days until

(01:03:36):
one of my classmates reported it. I'm still pissed at
that kid, by the way. Screw you, Jerry. But anyways,
she ended up getting arrested and fired for endangerment to
children because she was on drugs. Oh my god. And
then she offered herself a week before a court date.

Speaker 9 (01:03:50):
Ya.

Speaker 1 (01:03:53):
She was the funniest teacher I ever had. Keep up
the work, he says, and Jerry yourself. Screw you, Jerry,
how could you do this? It took a turn. It
took a turn. Let's go in another direction. Mickey wants
to talk about you or the dog Tips of the
new Junking dot Com says her husband called the cops
to let them know she was walking the dog. Usually
her walks take fifteen minutes, but she was gone for

(01:04:14):
about two hours. Oh really, okay, I mean another interesting
tidbit on that one. When we come back, we got
the next episode with Sabrina. What's coming up on the
next episode?

Speaker 2 (01:04:25):
What's coming on the next episode. Here's a weird sentence.

Speaker 6 (01:04:30):
The first quarter of the twenty first century is coming
to a close, so why not name the best song
of the century. Right now, Hollywood is spending the big
wheel of unoriginal ideas and landed on not one, but
two competition series that are sure to make the biggest ripple.
Gene Simmons has gone from rocking all night and everyday
parties to Nappi's Behind the Wheel. I've had so much

(01:04:52):
more coming up on the next episode.

Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
And that is coming up next on the News Junkie.

(01:05:15):
The intimate event that's coming up the Roast of Sean Wasson.
There are a couple and I mean two. I think
there's two seats on the back line which were opened
up recently, and one or two seats on the side,
and then all of the main area for this incredibly
exclusive event is going to be gobbled up.

Speaker 7 (01:05:32):
And we'll talk about some things that are happening after that.

Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
But yeah, grab those while you can for October thirtieth
and the Roast of Sean Wasson at Thenewschunkie dot com.
Forward slash roast, Thenewsjunkie dot com slash roast.

Speaker 7 (01:05:46):
Okay, friends, we'll.

Get to your dispatches or emails and all of that
momentarily on the show. We got a whole second half
to go right now, let's get into it. Let's do
the next episode.

Speaker 7 (01:05:57):
Because there's a lot on TV.

Speaker 21 (01:05:58):
You can't possibly keep up with all of it, even
though you should, because what else are you gonna talk about?

Speaker 7 (01:06:03):
Are Ya hungis Billy?

Speaker 21 (01:06:06):
It's time for the next episode with Sabrina pulled up.

Speaker 2 (01:06:19):

dot com and of course the Home Loans radio show.
If you're looking to get that beautiful dream home. There's
a lot going up for sale these days, and what's
going down It seems like the mortgage rates. So be
sure to start the process with somebody that is going
to explain said process. Uh, lift the curtain on the

(01:06:42):
mortgage business, because that mortgage guy Don wants you to.

Speaker 2 (01:06:46):
Know how it works. He's got your back.

Speaker 6 (01:06:48):
Go to that mortgage guy Don dot com to get
the process started.

Speaker 2 (01:06:51):
That day, to miss the.

Speaker 10 (01:06:53):
Volcany mortgage guy dot com forty years ago, God does
time fly true.

Speaker 6 (01:07:04):
It was on this day, nineteen eighty five, that a
particular person dedicated a two and a half acre garden
memorial to her late husband.

Speaker 1 (01:07:18):
Are your car now? Oh no, it is right, John
Lennon points.

Speaker 6 (01:07:24):
I guess two points were available, and both of you haven't.
And oh I will throw two more points and this
will be breaking a tie. What was the name of
the memorial in New York City Central Park?

Speaker 1 (01:07:41):
I know what it is, three two starberry Fields. That
is correct, the timer.

Speaker 2 (01:07:50):
And now we got stuff that's a little bit more
what that's right?

Speaker 1 (01:07:54):
Right, that's nice. I'll broadcast on the dark in my say,
and I told you you're in my shot.

Speaker 2 (01:08:03):
And if only someone was in his what seems to
be fifty thousand shots. But that is allegedly or a
little joke.

Speaker 6 (01:08:12):
Sweet segue into not even two years into retirement, the
lead singer of this group, Kiss Gene Simmons, is doing.

Speaker 2 (01:08:23):
Some yeah retirement stuff. He landed in the hospital this week,
did you know?

Speaker 1 (01:08:30):
Oh no, what happened to him?

Speaker 6 (01:08:32):
Just a little passing out behind the wheel of his
Lincoln Navigator damn, across several lanes of traffic and hit
a parked car.

Speaker 12 (01:08:43):
So long.

Speaker 7 (01:08:45):
Is he okay?

Speaker 2 (01:08:47):
Yeah, no, he seems to be.

Speaker 6 (01:08:48):
He was briefly hospitalized, but he tweeted thanks everybody for
the kind wishes.

Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
I'm completely found.

Speaker 6 (01:08:56):
Whoa okay, mad a slight fender bender?

Speaker 2 (01:09:03):
You crossed several lanes and hit a parked car. You
couldn't you bet he did it? Happens, is what he said.

Speaker 6 (01:09:13):
Whoops, especially to those of us who were horrible drivers,
and that's me all is well, maybe they should have
continued the final farewell tour because then they would not
be behind the wheel of a car.

Speaker 1 (01:09:27):
How old is Gene Simmons? Is seventies or so.

Speaker 6 (01:09:31):
Or seventy six years old to be damn okay? And
he's a very adamant that he doesn't drink or do drugs.
He just likes to take nappies in the middle of
driving a car.

Speaker 1 (01:09:41):
So there you have it.

Speaker 6 (01:09:42):
But if we're here doing lies, then apparently this gal
right here is screaming up from the rooftops.

Speaker 2 (01:09:53):
Jennifer Lopez is right ceiling gets the point.

Speaker 6 (01:09:55):
During a recent podcast appearance, Jennifer Lopez ak Hey j
Low aka Taco Kisses made a bold claim about her
high school track career and then you immediately went to
the internet and that claim was.

Speaker 7 (01:10:11):
A double What was a claim?

Speaker 1 (01:10:12):
What she said?

Speaker 6 (01:10:14):
So some people are saying exaggerating worse out light a
right lying outlight, rying.

Speaker 2 (01:10:21):
Is what I'd like to say with dyslexia.

Speaker 6 (01:10:23):
Lopez made the claim while recording the podcast The All
the Things Program with Matt Rogers and Boone Yang, and
she was asked about her athletic prowess, as people ask,
just real quick, sean athletic prowess.

Speaker 1 (01:10:40):
Uh, not great? Is what I would say in two words.

Speaker 2 (01:10:43):
Kickboxing.

Speaker 1 (01:10:45):
I was good at boxing. I was good at boxing,
and kickboxing that was the one thing I was good
at it. I wouldn't even put fishing in there, honestly.
I was not a great fisherman. Of course, your next
me athletic prowess very low.

Speaker 7 (01:11:00):
Yeah, I had the karate thing for a while and
then I didn't do it anymore.

Speaker 6 (01:11:08):
For the sake of do you know, Sab after all
these years, do you remember what sports I played in
high school?

Speaker 1 (01:11:14):
You played? You were, you were the mascot for on
was you thought the Magic Dragon. I was going to
say softball, but that's just because I know you from
playing softball, So I don't know if that actually tracks
back to high school.

Speaker 2 (01:11:32):
Yeah, no, it.

Speaker 6 (01:11:33):
Did softball, and and basketball.

Speaker 2 (01:11:37):
And one more sid sport. And I don't know why
they made an actual.

Speaker 1 (01:11:42):
League kickball.

Speaker 6 (01:11:47):
POGs is correct, No, POGs, I said, not poggin flag football.
So j Lo responded that she ran in both the
eight hundred and the fifteen hundred.

Speaker 1 (01:12:02):
All right.

Speaker 6 (01:12:03):
Rogers at that point said he ran the mile, which
is the sixteen hundred, to which Lopez enthusiastically responded, me too,
Taco burto. She then asked for his best time. He
states it was four thirty six. Impressive, by the way,
for an entire mile.

Speaker 7 (01:12:20):
For a mile, that's good. That's damn good.

Speaker 1 (01:12:22):
But what did j Lo say?

Speaker 6 (01:12:24):
I think my best was for forty nine for a woman.

Speaker 2 (01:12:33):
Quick look into.

Speaker 6 (01:12:34):
The high history books is that she did not run
the four to forty nine mile in high school.

Speaker 2 (01:12:39):
One fan discovered, how are you able to look that up?

Speaker 6 (01:12:42):
The top time in the country in nineteen eighty seven
Lopez's senior year was for forty seven. In fact, only
three girls in the country broke for fifty, and Jennifer
Lopez was not on the national list.

Speaker 1 (01:12:57):
Yeah, interrect, I still don't think. I still don't think
a woman. I might be wrong about this, and if
I am, I apologize. I don't think a woman has
broken the four minute mile.

Speaker 2 (01:13:06):
If you want to give it a quick googs, I can't.

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
I will.

Speaker 7 (01:13:11):
Running magazine in Canada says a four to forty nine
mile in high school would currently rank Lopez two hundred
and forty seventh on the global all time list.

Speaker 1 (01:13:20):
For you twenty women. Yeah yeah, By the way, no
woman has ever broke the four minute mile, So.

Speaker 2 (01:13:25):
One, ladies, get out there and do running.

Speaker 1 (01:13:28):
The moment I hear that, I'm like, so, Jennifer Lopez
is on record pace for like the greatest female athletes
of all time.

Speaker 2 (01:13:35):
To think she was going to do the Greatest Hits
of All Time tour and that didn't do well. She
should have been just running.

Speaker 6 (01:13:41):
Or perhaps you can just sign up for these upcoming
super creative, totally original ideas. When it comes to competition shows,
oh wait, let me turn that around. We now have
two new competition shows, one based on Clue and the other.

Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
Based on this thank you. Yeah, it's word old time.
It's word old time.

Speaker 6 (01:14:13):
Can you imagine a competition series that you sit down
on TV and you watch, yeah, wordle style, I think
that'll be any good.

Speaker 7 (01:14:24):
If it's written correctly.

Speaker 1 (01:14:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:14:26):
I mean some of the dumbest shows we have that
are game shows are just like mindless distractions.

Speaker 2 (01:14:33):
Do they last more than a season that you're like
thinking of.

Speaker 7 (01:14:37):
There there's that one, like exactly pictionary show or one
of those shows that airs in the daytime that that's
been going on for a live hang on.

Speaker 1 (01:14:48):
They made a show out of Where in the World
is Carmen San Diego and they had an a cappella
group and it was still kind of good.

Speaker 2 (01:14:54):
Yeah, but that was a game show. It was a
computer game.

Speaker 7 (01:14:57):
No, it was a TV show though when the TV
show was like dramatization like it was a scripted series.
She's talking about, they're taking a wordle and making a
game show out of it.

Speaker 1 (01:15:06):
I'll watch that.

Speaker 2 (01:15:07):
You sign up for or we sign up.

Speaker 6 (01:15:09):
I haven't done the world today, but if you are
f for it, that will be coming to a tube.

Speaker 7 (01:15:15):
I've been into Pips near You.

Speaker 2 (01:15:17):
What's that?

Speaker 7 (01:15:17):
It's on the New York New York Times, the only
Domino game. It's real good.

Speaker 2 (01:15:22):
Are you paying?

Speaker 8 (01:15:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:15:24):
I think so? Again?

Speaker 22 (01:15:26):
Wow?

Speaker 1 (01:15:27):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (01:15:35):
On the boob Tube if you're not ordling.

Speaker 6 (01:15:38):
We have football Baby Eagles and the Giants.

Speaker 2 (01:15:42):
Who's Gonna Win?

Speaker 6 (01:15:43):
Series premiere of nine to one to one Nashville because
we needed it. Second I'm sorry, twenty second season premiere
of Gray's Anatomy because we need it right Ashley and Ncis,
Tony and Ziva on Paramount plus Channing Tatum will be
unfallon and you follow your dreams and me on Instagram
at Sabrina Ambra.

Speaker 2 (01:16:04):
Most importantly stay with me America.

Speaker 7 (01:16:07):
Smoke weed every day.

Speaker 1 (01:16:09):
Thank you, Sabrina. We have a lot to get to
still on the show. The second half of the show,
We're gonna bust things wide open. We got to talk
about this person. They arrested the person that I believe
started one of the main Palisades fire when California was
all burning down and all hell was breaking loose. They
arrested the guy who was like some crazy pyromaniac apparently

(01:16:31):
who allegedly lit this thing, and they arrested him in Orlando,
or he's coming to court in Orlando at least so
is near where we are. We have some drunk sisters
getting into a fight and the body cam chaos that
that had and a new AI law which is so
unhinged it must be fake, but it's not. And it's

(01:16:53):
coming up next. And the news junkie Hollywood is out
of control, out of control. They want a lot of things.

(01:17:16):
They got power in California, they're pushing through some new laws.
And I'll tell you why this doesn't really work in
just a moment here, all right, and I'll tie this
insane new law to a popular television show momentarily. But first,
California is the first date to make a claim and
make a law about AI. Now, I'm going to bring

(01:17:38):
this up here in front of me in just a moment.

Speaker 7 (01:17:41):
In what regard because I know we have in Florida
laws about AI.

Speaker 1 (01:17:46):
Not like this one. Here's the story, California, the first
date to claim. Using AI to replace an actor is
now against the law, like illegal, Like you put an
actor in something when they didn't act and it's AI.
You have not just like done something morally wrong or

(01:18:06):
contractually wrong or something that they could get you within
a civil core, but you have broken a law by
taking an actor and using AI to replace the actor.

Speaker 2 (01:18:18):
What if you get permission or.

Speaker 1 (01:18:21):
But you're fine? Yeah, now if you're doing it without permission.

Speaker 6 (01:18:25):
There's that what other laws criminal laws in California or
against movie makers.

Speaker 10 (01:18:32):
I mean.

Speaker 6 (01:18:34):
We only saw, wasn't it. No, No, it was criminal
as far as Alec Baldwin.

Speaker 1 (01:18:39):
Right, Oh yeah, well the with the Rust movie set shoot.

Speaker 2 (01:18:43):
Yeah, there was still a civil lawsuit that went.

Speaker 1 (01:18:44):
Through, right, Yeah. I think that was an Arizona where
that took place. But this is about that's weird, like
the AI replacement I believe it was, I don't remember now,
but this is about the AI replacement of real actors
against their judgment. Right, So they're saying, we don't want
to be in something and you put them in them anyways,
and you're now breaking actual law.

Speaker 7 (01:19:05):
Previously, this would have been something that would have just
been in their contract, like, hey, you know, I'm signing
on for this movie. You're not allowed to use AI
to change my performance, you know, anything like that. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:19:21):
This year's what it says. California has become the first
US state to claim that using AI to replace a
real actor is against the law. With artificial intelligence becoming
increasingly prevalent in our daily lives and technology becoming more
and more sophisticated, California has passed not one, but two
bills to protect actors over concerns about AI. On September seventeenth,
Gavin Newsom passed these two AI bills into law. Then

(01:19:44):
they I guess fully signed them. According to AB twenty
six oh two, a contract between an individual and anybody
else can be rendered contrary to public policy if it
allows for the creation and use of a digital replica
of the individual's voice or likeness in place of the
work of the individual what otherwise performed a person. If
you didn't get that, you can't even sign a contract

(01:20:05):
that says you can be replaced with AI or they
can manipulate you your voice or your likeness in AI.
In California, you cannot even sign a contract to be
able to do that in the state of California.

Speaker 2 (01:20:18):
Pretty quick.

Speaker 6 (01:20:19):
It wasn't something that was used as a political gain piece, right, No.

Speaker 1 (01:20:26):
California, there's no competition. Yeah, California is all Democrats pretty much,
so they don't have.

Speaker 2 (01:20:31):
Any democratic thing. It would be more of a.

Speaker 1 (01:20:38):
Gavin Newsome wants to be friendly with Hollywood and the
actors and such, and there's a push to protect their jobs.
They don't so much care about everybody else losing their
jobs today, but they're really focused on them being replaced
with digital replicas. And they say, as part of the law,
it says a digital replica refers to a computer generated,

(01:20:59):
highly realistic, electronic representation that is readily identifiable as the
voice or visual likeness of an individual. So you cannot
sign a contract saying that they can use your your
likeness or your voice to do this. So they want
people to hire human actors and have actual actors do this.
They want AI out of Hollywood. Here's the problem, juxtuppose

(01:21:19):
that with this Stranger Things season five numbers are coming in.
Stranger Things season five reportedly cost four hundred and sixty
million dollars to film this show. Four hundred and sixty
million dollars to film this show. Now, every once in

(01:21:40):
a while, somebody comes in and knocks this down because
this is not how much this stuff should cost. Is
a big bloated Hollywood productions that are wasteful as hell.
And somebody goes, I can make something every bit as
high quality, and I can make it for a tiny
fraction of the price. Sometimes it even happens in surprising places.
To his credit, Seth Rogan did this with the animation world.

(01:22:03):
He did his movie Sasage Party, Sausage Party, the adult
animated feature Sausage Party. He did his movie for a
fraction of the budget, in a fraction of the time
that Pixar and other animated films we're taking to create
these things. You can do this all for so much cheaper,
But Hollywood likes to overspend, and they want to overspend

(01:22:27):
and not be able to have the alternative of using
AI at the same time. So we got a real
tough future ahead of us here. Stranger Thinks Season five
recordingly toss Nor costs more four hundred and sixty million dollars.
That's more than Avengers Endgame, which costs three hundred and
fifty six million dollars. Netflix spent between fifty and sixty

(01:22:48):
million dollars per episode of this new season of Stranger
Things five. And I don't even know how well this
Stranger Things season is going to do because it's been
so long. I don't even know if if everybody is
going to tune back in and pick up where they
left off. I, for one, don't even remember where we were.
I have to go back and rewatch stuff, and sometimes
when I do that, I'm like, ah, I'll just leave

(01:23:09):
this one behind.

Speaker 7 (01:23:09):
So here's something that's kind of I don't know if
this is a gray area in the law or maybe
they just haven't dug that deep into it. But like U,
in the example that two people have brought up on
the texting service back to back different people, Wizard of
Oz at the Sphere, Uh huh, they clearly needed to
use some AI to fill out some things.

Speaker 1 (01:23:32):
Yeah, make the shots bigger. Would that be illegal? I
think that would well, I think this might be effective
going forward. We'll have to ask Moses. But it sounds
like you can't agree to a contract that allows these
people to do that. Therefore they're trying to shut it
down of course, an industry wide moving forward. But it

(01:23:55):
doesn't sound like you could do that going backwards. It
doesn't sound like it would make it a crime to
take an old saying like the Wizard of Oz. I
guess that would be up to whoever owns the Wizard
of Oz. Right, I guess whoever owns the rights. Because
you're right, that's exactly what they did. They stretched out
that movie. They added people where they weren't. They got
more scenes out of folks who weren't even present in

(01:24:18):
the scenes.

Speaker 7 (01:24:19):
They did all these little things. Is just like, you know,
the Wizard of Oz had a certain aspect ratio and
they needed to make it bigger. So they made rooms bigger,
and they had, you know, the actors walking in from
distances that they didn't previously do you know it wasn't
even huge things. But most of those actors are dead.

Speaker 1 (01:24:39):
You know, it's not like they can't come back now. Yeah,
but I think this is wrong. Barbara, by the way,
says Hyahio. Barbara, I appreciate you over on YouTube. Dance says,
but they were just using AI to replace backgrounds and scenery,
not actors. I don't know if that's true. I think
in some cases they expanded scenes and put characters in

(01:25:00):
places where they were not on camera.

Speaker 2 (01:25:03):
Okay, but were those AI generated characters.

Speaker 1 (01:25:07):
They took the people who already acted in it and
then just used the AI to put them in a
scene that they weren't in, put them in a frame
that they weren't in, And they did it that way.
But so it was work that wasn't originally on screen.

Speaker 6 (01:25:21):
At the very least, this reminds me a little bit
of the Top Gun civil lawsuit.

Speaker 2 (01:25:30):
Oh gosh, it was when that came out, the newest one.

Speaker 6 (01:25:32):
Which was yes, four years ago now, But there was
a guy that was in the original and was trying
to sue because they used just his picture off to
the side, saying that he had passed away. Yeah, and
they're like, because he used it, you used my likeness.

Speaker 1 (01:25:50):
Yeah, and they did.

Speaker 6 (01:25:51):
That could have been AI generated And then what in
California You now would have the creators.

Speaker 2 (01:25:58):
Of Top Gun Maverick behind bars.

Speaker 7 (01:26:01):
See this is weird because well, if they use this picture,
maybe they already had the picture.

Speaker 1 (01:26:08):
Yeah. I mean, look, if they have the rights to
your performance, they can reuse that stuff. Even to stretch
this out into a thing that makes sense for everybody.
Because you upload your photos to Facebook or Instagram, I
believe Facebook or Instagram has the right to use your photos.

Speaker 6 (01:26:27):
Not if you put the post that says your Facebook
has no right to use my Yeah, as so good luck.

Speaker 1 (01:26:38):
Too, all right.

Speaker 7 (01:26:42):
In the AI overview on Google, which I don't know
if we should be even trusting AI on this since
it's anti AI, right, it says California has banned the
unauthorized use of an actor's digital likeness or voice generated
by artificial intelligence. But you're making it sound like they
can't even authorize it, like the actor themselves can't authorize it.

Speaker 1 (01:27:03):
That's what the actual law says. I mean, what at
least this.

Speaker 7 (01:27:07):
Write up of a key aspects of the new laws.
AB twenty six to two is informed consent for living performers.
A performer must provide clear, informed consent before their likeness
or voice can be recreated by AI. Contracts must explicitly
state how these AI generated digital replicas will be used,
covering specific projects and duration of their use.

Speaker 1 (01:27:28):
But AB one eighteen thirty six is that the one
you're reading, No.

Speaker 7 (01:27:32):
I'm reading twenty six oh two eighteen thirty six is
for deceased performers. Yes, the commercial use of AI generated
replicas of deceased performers is prohibited without prior consent from
the estate.

Speaker 1 (01:27:43):
So this that would make the Wizard of Oz thing
then off limits? WoT they unless they went to the
estates of each actor?

Speaker 7 (01:27:52):
I mean, how long does an estate even last?

Speaker 1 (01:27:55):
I don't know how that would work because it's been
so long since something like Wizard of Oz came out,
but yeah, you're right. Eighteen thirty six says it makes
it illegal prohibits the creation and distribution of a replica
of a dead person's voice or likeness.

Speaker 7 (01:28:08):
So that would be I would think.

Speaker 1 (01:28:12):
Although it wasn't created in the state of California, or
maybe it was, it would be the Wizard of Oz.
But these are all new laws coming into play, and
they want all these things that cost a lot of money,
and then also not use AI, which would lower the
cost all over the place. It's going to be a
confusing future in that world. What do you think about
these sorts of laws? Tell us go to thenewsjunkie dot

(01:28:34):
com right now, all right, a quick break. Actually, you
know what, we can work at a couple of dispatches.
What we have a moment or two. I think let's
do this. Here's Synth Solutions with a dispatch for us.

Speaker 9 (01:28:46):
Hey junkies, Happy Friday.

Speaker 1 (01:28:49):
Hey.

Speaker 9 (01:28:49):
I don't do this often, but I have to side
with Sean. There was a Carmen San Diego game show.
It used to air in the afternoon on PBS.

Speaker 1 (01:28:58):
I know, yeah, I didn't want to quibble over it.
I didn't want to fight over this, but the Carmen
San Diego show I remember had the dudes doing the
a cappella song where in the well and Carmen guy
with a deep voice and stuff. But it was the

(01:29:18):
kids were playing a game and they had to figure
out where Carmen San Diego was, and it was like
acting out in front of them.

Speaker 7 (01:29:24):
That's what I remember.

Speaker 1 (01:29:25):
Maybe there was another version that I didn't know of
where it was like acted out and stuff.

Speaker 7 (01:29:29):
I thought there was no These are both game shows
Where in the World and Where in Time? There was
an animated series where on Earth is Carmen san Diego
and another one that's just called Carmen san Diego.

Speaker 1 (01:29:40):
Man, they got a lot out of that damn game.
Let's go over to Lejeva Rossa says Trump does not
deserve that Nobel Prize.

Speaker 23 (01:29:47):
We were discussing, yez, Hey just wanted to check in
and talk about Trump, okay, and why I don't think
that he deserves the Nobel Peace Pries Okay, because even
if he had has done things in other countries, what
is he doing right here in his own country.

Speaker 24 (01:30:04):
He's definitely not promoting peace. If anything, he loves division
and he thrives off of their being conflict here, So
that definitely does not sound like somebody who should be
receiving a prize for promoting peace.

Speaker 9 (01:30:19):
Anyways, love you.

Speaker 1 (01:30:21):
Thank you for the dispatch. Quick question, is there anything
like does does the Nobel Peace Prize have a website
where they say what you're supposed to do to get it.

Speaker 2 (01:30:30):
MAS, you just vote like American Idol.

Speaker 1 (01:30:33):
Nobel Peace Prize requirements, I don't know the requirement. A
candidate must have significantly contributed to peace through works like
promoting international cooperation, reducing armies, or fostering peace congresses, and

(01:30:54):
must be a living individual organization at.

Speaker 7 (01:30:56):
The time of the award.

Speaker 1 (01:30:57):
So you have to be alive, and you have to
significantly contribute to peace through works like international corporation or cooperation.
That seems like it would fit if you solved or
at least temporarily whatever, if you ended the war in
Gaza between Israel and the Palestinians. And who knows, is
still time left? See what happens with Russia, India and

(01:31:19):
Pakistans seem to be doing better. There's countries in Africa,
there's other countries where they've had conflicts that Trump has
been able to seemingly go in there and make the deal.
For as much as people take shots out of them
and make fun of them, I want to give them
credit for that. I think Piece is a good thing,
and I think if anybody, whoever they are, could come
in and make a solution there, I'm all for it.

(01:31:40):
And I don't know that sounds like it fits the
award to me, But you're free to disagree. We'll see
what else people think. Send your dispatches into thenewsjunkie dot com.
Right now, we have another death at a theme park,
to be clear, the first one was at Epic Universe,
a new theme park in Orlando, Florida. Was a roller

(01:32:02):
coaster ride. What's the name of the ride again, I'm
stardust Racers, that's it. Stardust Racers is the name of
the ride. And it was a man in a wheelchair
who was on the ride and ended up dying. And
now a big lawsuit has come of that. Now another
death on a famous ride, this time Disney is the

(01:32:23):
place where this went down. What happened, how did this
person die, what ride wasn't on. We're gonna get into
all those details. It's a pretty crazy story actually, and
that is coming up next on the news, junkie bluetoothing.

(01:32:53):
You're doing it, you guys getting high bluetoothing out there. Oh,
it must be like a story like this, I think. Think. Okay,
I'll tell you, I'll tell you what I'm talking about here,
because this can't be real. It's in the New York
Times today. But it's like, come on, is this really
a thing? Is this actually happening right now? They suggest
it is, They should suggest we take them seriously. The

(01:33:14):
New York Times says bluetoothing is the drug trend that
is fueling some issues across the nation. And here's what
they call this. It says bluetooth. God, they're like showing
somebody do this. Oh gosh, yikes. It says a dangerous
drug trend called bluetoothing, in which people inject themselves with

(01:33:35):
the blood of other drug users to get a cheap high,
is contributing to spikes and HIV rates and infection hotspots.

Speaker 7 (01:33:45):
Around the world. Doy, that's weird.

Speaker 1 (01:33:48):
The blood sharing practice, if this is to be believed,
which is many times riskier than sharing needles.

Speaker 7 (01:33:55):
Yeah you think so, okay, but.

Speaker 2 (01:33:59):
Bluetooth, Yeah, please don't.

Speaker 7 (01:34:02):
Let's see.

Speaker 2 (01:34:04):
Okay, so it's cheaper, right, I'm guessing that's what you
just said.

Speaker 1 (01:34:09):
So like, say you have money and you're getting high,
and I go, I don't have money. Then I get
some of your blood when you're high and I inject
that in me.

Speaker 6 (01:34:19):
This to you, Are you supposed to be paying me money?
Because that's money they can go towards the drugs.

Speaker 7 (01:34:24):
Let's see.

Speaker 1 (01:34:24):
The New York Times says the blood sharing practice, which
is many times riskier than sharing needles, has helped fuel
one of the fastest growing HIV epidemics excuse me in
Fiji and grown widespread in South Africa. The idea of
sharing the drug laced blood is so unthinkably dangerous that
for years experts have questioned how common it is, but
now they said, there's people doing this. And in Fiji,

(01:34:47):
authorities have identified bluetooth thing as one force behind an
alarming spiral in these HIV rates. I don't know why
they're calling it bluetooth, though. I guess you're taking something
out of somewhere and putting it in another place.

Speaker 2 (01:35:03):
It's like, that's not.

Speaker 7 (01:35:05):
Bluetooth.

Speaker 2 (01:35:06):
Are like, this is not a trademark next to that word.
For so many years.

Speaker 16 (01:35:13):
Like this.

Speaker 2 (01:35:13):
I feel like it would be a wire tap.

Speaker 1 (01:35:16):
Wire transfer. Why are you?

Speaker 7 (01:35:18):
Transfer is not bad?

Speaker 1 (01:35:19):
It makes more sense than bluetoothing, I swear, But this
is all over the place. Why bluetoothing? A shocking blood
sharing twin trying to get high? Twin to get high
has healthy experts worried? Excuse me, my words are familing
me at the moment. Let me gather them. A dangerous
shortcut to get a buzz. Nothing says why they're calling
it bluetoothing, but I guess, he explained. Bluetoothing is only

(01:35:42):
one part of a larger problem, and the way it
works as simple. The first person injects a drug like
heroin or meth. Then another person draws some of the
drug laced blood from the first person and puts it
in themselves. And they said it rarely works as intended.
That's that's crazy, man that Please don't be so desperate
to get high that you're doing insane things like this.

(01:36:05):
It's still crazy to get HIV, all right. I know
people have kind of turned this into like, oh no, no, not.

Speaker 7 (01:36:10):
That big of a deal anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:36:11):
And get some drugs and you're Okay, it's still something
that we should definitely avoid it all called.

Speaker 7 (01:36:16):
How about also the fact that the people who need
to remove blood from another human that has got some
drugs in it to put into their blood because they
need to fix so bad, those people cannot afford HIV medication.
They can't buy prep.

Speaker 1 (01:36:32):
I wouldn't think so, no, no, And unless they're expecting
us to pay for it in the United States, and
I think we've removed some of those USA dollars. I'm
already pay to stop you guys bluetoothing around the country
around the world. I mean I pay for it more
in the country than I would other places. This is
taken off in South Africa and Fiji. I don't want
to pay for these people. This is like really dumb stuff.

(01:36:53):
This is I don't actually want people want to.

Speaker 7 (01:36:54):
Get so high. I didn't know this was something because
they've been high, as that they've been high and they're
coming down from.

Speaker 2 (01:36:59):
That something else.

Speaker 16 (01:37:00):
You know.

Speaker 6 (01:37:03):
Back in the day when you needed to continue that
high orren't they like putting farts in urine in a
bag and inhaling that and now we're doing this.

Speaker 1 (01:37:14):
Still a better idea than bluetoothing or licking frogs. Lick
a frog, Licking frogs works. It's dangerous and bad, but
I mean, I'll tell you what. I had never heard
of anybody trying something like this, and the only time
I've seen any situation where somebody would go, oh, this
blood has definitely got to be potent.

Speaker 7 (01:37:34):
I'm going to use that to get high. Is the
movie Limitless with Bradley Cooper?

Speaker 1 (01:37:40):
Really? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:37:41):
They had stole all his be Smarter than Ever drugs,
his Limitless pills and they got in a shootout with
these guys, and the dude's bleeding out and he's, you know,
he's going through the withdraws. I think he just licked
up some of the blood so that he could get
his fix on, so he could save the day.

Speaker 1 (01:38:00):
Is that where this may be started from?

Speaker 7 (01:38:02):
I would not think so.

Speaker 1 (01:38:04):
This is very vile, folks. Just calm down with this nonsense.
You're on your own if you're out there bluetoothing. I
can't help you, Okay, real quick? There is a could
help them, would you I wouldn't. No, I would not.
There's a documentary I want to mention very quickly because
they're just about to drop this, I guess, and it's
called Ozzy No Escape from Now about the last weeks

(01:38:28):
apparently of Ozzy Osbourne. And yeah, I didn't know they
were filming this, but I guess they were. It says
it's painful to watch Ozzy Osborne struggle in this documentary,
and his efforts to make his one final on stage
appearance are all inspiring. According to this, the singer Ozzy Osbourne,

(01:38:48):
who died in July at seventy six after battling Parkinson's
and some other things, didn't have the glass shattering range
that came to distinguish a lot of vocalists in the genre,
but he all but in heavy metal, his thick, slightly
nasal apparatus was best suited to terrified moans. Blah blah blah.
They're going to talk about this, but they said the

(01:39:08):
heartbreaking documentary that's coming out Ozzy Osbourne No Escape from Now,
and you watch him push as best as he can
through this final final show that he did. And it
stars Kelly Osbourne and Jack Osbourne his kids, directed by
somebody named Tanya Alexander, and it will show the final

(01:39:29):
moments really of Ozzy Osbourne. I don't know if I
could play any of this because I don't know if
it's like curse word crazy or whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:39:35):
But he did love to use his ex pla.

Speaker 1 (01:39:38):
Yeah, he's looking pretty old in some of the footage
from the trailer that I'm looking at, but it shows
you could at least show this. Yeah. It shows Ozzy
getting ready for his final tour, a six year journey,
they said, and him and his family are like fighting
to get all this stuff in for his final act
and I guess they I don't know how close they're

(01:39:59):
going to get to the end of things. They're showing
him in the hospital and stuff.

Speaker 6 (01:40:03):
But he was in pain, and from what I understand,
I think we all spoke about this, Like leading up
to that final show, he had stopped taking his pain medication. Yeah,
he was just pushing through, so you can be completely there.
Was not drinking obviously or doing drugs and mm hmm.
That's extremely painful considering what his body was going through.

Speaker 1 (01:40:23):
Yeah, dying pretty crazy. So I don't know. I'm trying
to see when this is coming out. I think came
out already days It already on Paramount Plus.

Speaker 7 (01:40:31):
Is what it says.

Speaker 1 (01:40:31):
Ozzie No escape from now October seventh, So yeah, it's
out there if you're interested, if you're a fan and
you want to see more about the final performance from
a pretty amazing talent, Ozzy Osbourne. Check that out and
that's out on Paramount Plus. All right, join us on
the show, get us a dispatch and send it our way.

Speaker 9 (01:40:49):
Do that.

Speaker 1 (01:40:49):
Record your video or audio dispatch with your thoughts on
what we're talking about at anytime at thenewschunkie dot com. Okay,
let's see a couple of things people are sending over.
There was wondering when the whole government shutdown will end.
This doesn't make it look good. This is a couple
of the people at the center of it, Mike Lawler,

(01:41:11):
a Republican and a Democrat, Hackey and Jefferies, and apparently
from the people who are sending this over, they're really
angry at each other. So it shows that my pie
in the sky was that maybe this government shutdown will
only last a couple of weeks or something, but it.

Speaker 7 (01:41:27):
Doesn't look like it's heading.

Speaker 1 (01:41:29):
Just bet on we bet on it. Yeah, I don't
know what the bet was.

Speaker 2 (01:41:33):
Five thousand bookies, No, it was.

Speaker 1 (01:41:36):
Five thousand dollars, but I don't think we're to two
weeks yet. I don't think weeks are we see, see
how long the government shutdown has been going on. I
don't think we're at two weeks yet. Betting on the
bat okay, five more dollars, I.

Speaker 7 (01:41:50):
Bet on that.

Speaker 1 (01:41:50):
I bet that we're not at two weeks. Yeah, I
bet that we're not at two weeks yet. And the
government shutdown. And if I win this one, then if
I lose the other one, it doesn't matter because I'm
covering all of my base is here forty six minutes
ago from USA. Today, government shutdown reaches day nine day
nine day.

Speaker 7 (01:42:10):
Okay, so we're even I might get to know so far, well,
we haven't gotten to the two weeks. If they solved
this sucker in the next couple of days, I'm good
to go.

Speaker 2 (01:42:17):
Okay, good luck.

Speaker 1 (01:42:18):
But it doesn't look like that's the case, because they're
yelling at each other from your boll sign you're both
you can easily extend your.

Speaker 7 (01:42:29):
Let me ask you why did you vote down? You
ask your question for years?

Speaker 9 (01:42:33):
What would you like?

Speaker 1 (01:42:35):
It's not going well. Everybody's filming them in the hallway.
Is a Republican honey? Look what I'm doing at work today.
They're they're just yelling at each other over who's the
blame for the government shutdown? Now, government, you're making a
show of this.

Speaker 7 (01:42:49):
You can sign on you're embarrassing.

Speaker 1 (01:42:51):
You're an embarrassing to sign were accomplishing anything, as.

Speaker 7 (01:42:58):
Question, it's as right here, you voted for the one thing.

Speaker 1 (01:43:03):
I voted for that gave the largest God. Every time
I think they might talk to each other for a second.

Speaker 6 (01:43:12):
At the same time, it's not possible to get a
conversation if you were just talking at the same time.
Let me ask you a question, he's already answering or
saying something else.

Speaker 2 (01:43:23):
It's so and to think they're not even on the
floor right now.

Speaker 1 (01:43:27):
The thing that's frustrating is this. The thing that's frustrating
is you can tell when somebody has no intent on
having a real conversation and when it's a performative act.
And this is two people engaged in a W W
E style performative actor like what about you?

Speaker 2 (01:43:49):
What about you? At the same time?

Speaker 1 (01:43:52):
No, probably not.

Speaker 20 (01:43:54):
By the way, the average New York are getting a
four thousand dollars tax cut.

Speaker 7 (01:43:57):
Are you against that?

Speaker 1 (01:43:58):
You're embarrassing you want to you want cut the stand? Guys,
can't we just agree that we focused on Katie Porter's
videos from the dog I'm focused on that, please, I'm
focused on the Katie Porter videos at least for the
next five minutes or so, because those keep landing. Even

(01:44:18):
Ousie's over. It's just done with all of this stuff.

Speaker 15 (01:44:22):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:44:22):
Here's here's an example of what I've been talking about
with these videos. Katie Porter's viral videos plunge campaign into disaster.
They are, of course they did. They're sinking this lady's
battleship over there.

Speaker 2 (01:44:35):
I truly do you think that she.

Speaker 6 (01:44:38):
Not I think this would come back and bite her
in the ass like any of those I mean, I
know that interview that she walked out of or after
screaming at her assistant in the back that you're in
my shot.

Speaker 2 (01:44:52):
That they would not come back to haunt her at
some point.

Speaker 1 (01:44:55):
Well, that's what's happened. If she didn't, if she didn't
expect that, that she's way off, they said.

Speaker 7 (01:44:59):
The the first video came out.

Speaker 1 (01:45:01):
Then, Katie Porter's Democratic rivals, smelling blood in the water,
quickly seized on the former Congresswoman's Windsworthy television appearance, Antonio
Villa Ragosa took the unusual step of purchasing three minute
ads in the Sacramento market to run the entirety of
her tense exchange with the CBS reporter. He just ran
her interview as an ad. He's like, you want this,

(01:45:21):
you want this, And then another person who is Betty Yee,
said she should drop out of the race. As the
last viable female candidate in this race. It matters to
me that California's first female governor be a trusted, respect
the leader we can all be proud of, not a
viral embarrassment. They're dropping bombs, They're sinking her battleship. Katie Porter,
come on, I don't know how she's going to recover,

(01:45:44):
but we'll see when we come back jury Duty, including
what happened at Disney.

Speaker 7 (01:45:48):
Now we have a death at Disney.

Speaker 1 (01:45:51):
What happened? What ride was it on? With the details,
that is up front in Jury Duty, and that is
coming up next on the News Junkie, don't forget your

take if it's just like some dumb I've heard eight

I've probably not gonna play it. If you send an
email and it's the same stuff over to, I want
to hear something unique that adds to the conversation. If

(01:46:37):
you disagree or agree, all that stuff is fine. Send
your dispatches, record yours at the Newsjunkie dot com, or
send an email tips t ips at the Newsjunkie dot com.

Woman died this week.

Speaker 1 (01:47:27):
She died on the Hunted Mansion ride at Disneyland. This
is in the wake of the death on the roller
coaster at Epic Universe, and let's see what they say
happen here. Here's a short clip from ABC seven about
this woman dying on the Hunted Mansion ride.

Speaker 16 (01:47:47):
Died after a medical emergency at Disneyland. Anaheim Police say
a woman in her sixties was unresponsive after riding the
Hunted Mansion on Monday.

Speaker 1 (01:47:55):
This is file video here.

Speaker 16 (01:47:56):
Disneyland security personnel performed CPR until paramedics a rid.

Speaker 7 (01:48:00):
The woman was hospitalized and later died.

Speaker 16 (01:48:02):
At least say there's no indication of any operating problems
with the attraction, which reopens soon after.

Speaker 7 (01:48:08):
Disney is the parent.

Speaker 1 (01:48:09):
Company they wanted to get They want as fast as
they could because they don't want another one of these
Epic Universe situations. And the media will go like, ooh,
we got one story. Two story makes it a trend
two stories together. Yeah, it could be. It could be

(01:48:31):
like this is the next thing that's that's a problem.
All the people are dying on the rides at the.

Speaker 7 (01:48:36):
Theme parlem my gosh, four more and and Sean's next
shirt is the amusements are coming to get us.

Speaker 1 (01:48:41):
Maybe I'll tell you this. Look, if you die on
Hotted Mansion.

Speaker 2 (01:48:47):
You become the ghost in that mirror part.

Speaker 10 (01:48:49):
You do you have fun?

Speaker 1 (01:48:52):
If you die the Mansion ride, you you had it coming.
You were like right on the verge.

Speaker 2 (01:48:57):
Anyways, extensive on your body.

Speaker 1 (01:49:01):
No, it's nice and easy. You're just kind of cruising
along as a couple of spooks and spots here and there,
and it's a good time. But if you died on
the Haunted Mansion, you would have died on the people Mover.

Speaker 7 (01:49:14):
You would have died on Like It's a small world,
isn't the Haunted Mansion where they have the most incidents
of people?

Speaker 1 (01:49:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:49:24):
One the spread.

Speaker 1 (01:49:25):
Ashes, Yeah, that does happen a lot. People get really
close to that rock. They said, if I can't spread
my ashes here, here's I'll do it another way. I will.
I will take it a little bit further. So this
woman in her sixties, they said, finish riding the Haunted
Mansion and was unresponsive, just like flopped over as they're going, Uh.

Speaker 7 (01:49:49):
You don't have to lift the the security apparatus. I
will lift it for you. And is that what they're doing.

Speaker 1 (01:49:57):
Yeah, it's been a long time since I've been haunted mansion. Yeah,
it's great, it's great, except for this one. This this
ride didn't go well for this particular woman. All right,
let's see what else we have here. We have an
update on this man that was arrested yesterday. He was
charged with starting that deadly Palisades fire, the Pacific Palisades
wildfire that burned down a bunch of la and it

(01:50:19):
was blamed on a million things, including climate change, by
a lot of the politicians at the time. But it
turns out a twenty nine year old man, a human being,
a person was I don't know if they say firebug anymore,
but it was like an arsonist in which Pyromania was
a pyromaniac and they used to say firebug.

Speaker 7 (01:50:37):
That seems so.

Speaker 9 (01:50:40):
Not you.

Speaker 1 (01:50:41):
Yeah, it seems too cute for what that person to
lose firebug. I might be getting wrong, but that's what
I heard growing up, Like, Oh, this person is a
real Firebug's fiber careful pyrol works too. Of course, he
had perfectly describes what this twenty nine year old man did.
He's been charged with sparky California's deadly Palisades fires, the
most destructive wildfires in history. His name is Jonathan Rindernecked,

(01:51:06):
and he lived in the area, who was an uber
driver at the time, who had searched some things and
tried to get chat gpt to show him some pictures
of stuff burning down, and then just got out of
his uber and said, here we go and lit a
fire that ended up being this big Pacific Palisades wildfire.
The fire, which left twelve dead, was one of two

(01:51:30):
blazes that broke out, and it killed more than thirty
people and all destroyed seventeen thousand homes. He was arrested
in Florida. This guy is showing up a court in Orlando,
in the Orlando area and in abouts to say Melbourne
is claiming Melbourne. Yeah, and Melbourne is where he was living.

(01:51:50):
But he's been brought to the local court here to
make his first court appearance. As of yesterday, he was
wearing shorts and a T shirt, shackled at the ankles.
He to the federal magistrate and a soft spoken voice
that he was not under the influence of alcohol and
did not have mental issues, but he's accused of lighting
that Palisades fire. We will see what you think about this.

(01:52:12):
Send us a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com right now.
Somebody chiming in on Trump and the Nobel Prize, the
Nobel Peace Prize with some potential for that. I don't
think it's going to happen, and neither does Herbie.

Speaker 25 (01:52:25):
Here we go hello foreseeing oh, even President getting a
Nobel Peace Prize.

Speaker 1 (01:52:31):
Bus gotta say, I am.

Speaker 25 (01:52:33):
Rooting for peace there and the Azrael consil thing and
Russe at Ukraine just because that's a h It's a
lot of American tax dollars, yeah, ad in other countries
that would hopefully stay here stateside and help pase out Stateside.

Speaker 1 (01:52:49):
Bro, even if you only rooted for it for that reason,
even if you were like, oh God, I hate Trump
so much, I'll never survive the term, even though he's
abbed another term. I'll never survive this term. And if
you don't go like, well, it'll save money. I don't
care about the Russians or the Gosans, but it'll save money. Fine,

(01:53:10):
or if you want, like you know, actual peace and
stop to bloodshed in war. That that should be all
of us. It really should. It should be everybody in
agreement on that one. Unfortunately, there'll be some people who,
no matter what, are like, no, not good. This is
let me tell you why this is actually a bad thing.
One more, here is the brown pony talking about open

(01:53:32):
carry of public's. Sorry for the echo.

Speaker 26 (01:53:35):
Before open carry, if I'm at a store someone walks
in with their wifle over their shoulder, I'm going to think, oh,
it's about to go down.

Speaker 1 (01:53:41):
Okay.

Speaker 9 (01:53:43):
Now with open carry, let's.

Speaker 26 (01:53:45):
Say someone decided, Hey, today's a day I'm gonna start blasting. Now,
this guy can just walk in the store, pretend like
everything's normal, and then all of a sudden, just start
whenever they want to start firing.

Speaker 1 (01:53:57):
True. So, yeah, I think this is a very weird move. Yeah, yeah,
I'm I'm not on board. I think it's dopey. I
think everybody should have these kind of rights, but I
think most public places, grocery stores included, should say you
want a gun, we have a concealed weapon. We can't.
We don't do open carry inside of our business. You
can do open carry out in the free world. Go

(01:54:18):
out and do a public place or whatever. If that's
really what you want to do. By the way, that's lame,
and you're lame for doing it, all right, and you're
not helping out your Second Amendment friends at all, and
the slightest by doing this, go do something productive. But
I think all of the business that should step up
and go like, Okay, we have arm security at our place.
You don't need to be open carrying here. If you

(01:54:40):
have a concealed carry permit, good to go. Fine. But
the rest of it is just as somebody said earlier,
a virtue signal to show everybody like, look, look, I'm
doing the thing because I can do the thing that
doesn't help anybody out when we come back. You, guys,
I can't believe this, but we have yet another Halloween
display that is gone too far according to some of

(01:55:04):
the authorities.

Speaker 7 (01:55:05):
The first going far enough.

Speaker 1 (01:55:07):
Oh yeah, have you seen this once? Oh you better
fire up your your Halloween display because these folks are
really try to out do you with all those skeletons,
but they really are skeletons at style. Well, maybe maybe
we'll talk about what's happening in this particular instance. And

(01:55:28):
another Halloween display gone too far. These details are a
good time and they're coming up next on the News
junk Kie. Here's an example of what we do. There's

(01:55:52):
a house in South Carolina try to be the most
spooky haunted house on the block. But maybe it's a
little too spooky because the police have been called ten
time to this house allegedly in one night alone. Why
everybody by a lot of people who drive by sybr

(01:56:16):
and everybody thinks that the house, which is solely doing
this as a halloween thing, is on fire. Now I'm
gonna put this up on see it now so everybody
can take a look. You know you're just listening. You know,
you can't see what we got going on over here
unless you feel like going over to you YouTube dot
com slash the news Junkie. But take a look at this,
all right, here's the scene at this house. It is

(01:56:38):
simulated like it's on fire and it's caused ten people
at least one night. Ready, but the house has all.

Speaker 2 (01:56:47):
The lighting and come on like, it looks like it's
on fire.

Speaker 6 (01:56:52):
Right if you're in this house, holy cow man house,
I mean it looks of course.

Speaker 7 (01:57:02):
Why wouldn't you call a bad effect? It is bad ass,
but there's smoke.

Speaker 1 (01:57:08):
All the lights are behind each window, so it looks
like there's a flame broiling behind each window at this house.
And it just literally looks like the houses engulfed in flames.
It's kind of crazy. And they're saying, like this has
gone too far.

Speaker 7 (01:57:26):
You can't do this.

Speaker 2 (01:57:27):
I mean, is that spooky? I don't think, of course,
your first reaction would be all the fire department.

Speaker 1 (01:57:35):
It's funny because the Halloween thing has changed so much
that to your point, Sabrina, it's like, this is this
what you do for Halloween now?

Speaker 6 (01:57:45):
So it's scary, it's alarming. I want to make sure
that there are no people and animals inside.

Speaker 1 (01:57:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:57:52):
I'm not looking at it and going huh they really
did an next I'm just.

Speaker 1 (01:57:56):
Going, wow, houses on fire.

Speaker 7 (01:57:58):
I hired by how you know some some TV show
flames or is this a no?

Speaker 1 (01:58:04):
This is real?

Speaker 6 (01:58:05):
This is absolutely flames would indicate Halloween related. Let me
say you could have avoided the ten calls to the.

Speaker 7 (01:58:13):
Department.

Speaker 1 (01:58:14):
South Carolina, Carolina, halloweens. Okay, yeah, it's really really impressive
and I will put this up on see it now
for your momentarily.

Speaker 7 (01:58:27):
But to me.

Speaker 1 (01:58:28):
I think there's a real interesting argument to be had
in that space. What really makes something a Halloween display?
And this isn't like a bunch of spooks and dukes.
It's not a bunch of ghosts and gremlins.

Speaker 7 (01:58:41):
And we have had spooks and spots, spooks and dukes.

Speaker 1 (01:58:45):
I almost said spooks and something else, and I should
not not go that way here it is? Is it real? Fire?

Speaker 9 (01:58:54):
Mom?

Speaker 1 (01:59:02):
They got a smoke machine, just smoke out the window.

Speaker 2 (01:59:07):
So what do you think that is? TV?

Speaker 1 (01:59:09):
I don't know. It's gotta be some sort of like
lacking effect. I'm putting this up right now as I speak,
so all of you watching can go over to see
it now when you get a chance.

Speaker 7 (01:59:20):
Well, the the the smoke is doing a good job
of sort of diffusing any of the lighting that might
be used in the effect. These could be Led curtains,
And is that a thing?

Speaker 1 (01:59:33):
Yeah? Led curtains really huh, Yeah, that's a thing.

Speaker 7 (01:59:37):
There's a They're pretty popular for Halloween and Christmas displays.
The same company that you know makes a lot of
the permanent lights like your neighbor has, like I have. Yeah,
it makes Led curtains. You can you can di I
Wyatt and have them even more LEDs so it looks
more like a screen than just a bunch of dots.

Speaker 1 (01:59:58):
Wow. But yeah, it's it's really intense. I put it
up on see it now. So take a second whenever
you get a chance, if you're not driving or whatever,
go to the news junki dot com hit see it
now and look up that one because it is something
to take in.

Speaker 7 (02:00:10):
Look up, look up go v led curtain and you'll
see like what people use it for in like a
fun way, like.

Speaker 1 (02:00:21):
What would you do with it? Would you put like
like in Home Alone where he has the thing where
you know Macaulay Culkins pretending like there's a party going on.

Speaker 7 (02:00:28):
So it's it's it's like makes a little scream, what
are you looking at it?

Speaker 1 (02:00:32):
This is it right here? It makes your curtains or
this is a garage door.

Speaker 7 (02:00:37):
This is over a garage door.

Speaker 1 (02:00:38):
So that's a lot of.

Speaker 7 (02:00:41):
People just projected that the calm curtains because you actually
can do them in like your window.

Speaker 1 (02:00:47):
So it's a curtain. It's like a beaded curtain of lights. Yes,
the screen is made out.

Speaker 6 (02:00:52):
Doing the three D production projection where you have to
like kind of map everything out fold.

Speaker 7 (02:00:59):
Yeah, and as like preset, you know, money on the holidays,
Goby's Goobey's printing money.

Speaker 1 (02:01:09):
The one one curtain light is three hundred and fifty
nine dollars. But that house, if they were doing it
this way, the whole thing is lit up. It's pretty insane.
So do check it out over there at thenews junkie
dot com. Hit see it now, let's see. I want
to save this thing about these Jersey sisters who got
drunk on the Frontier Airlines flight, and instead I'll share
with you an interesting tact. I don't know if this

(02:01:31):
is going to be like a new Republican thing or not.
This usually is something that you would associate with the
Democrats in the United States of America. But Josh Howley,
Josh h A. W. L. E. Y as far as
I know, he's a US senator who's a Republican, and
he's been posting about how Amazon's CEO makes too much
money compared to the workers. He's like, the CEO shouldn't

(02:01:53):
make this much money, the workers should make more money.
I don't know if this is the Republicans kind of
tilting and saying we want to go after the every man,
the blue collar workers more. We don't want to be
seen as the party that just like embraces the CEOs
and the rich people. And that's that's some of the
stuff that they have, the baggage that the Republicans have,
Like a lot of younger people will think Republicans equal
mean they got to they got to fight that in

(02:02:15):
the world of public opinion. They've got to say, hey,
we're not just here for the rich people. And it
looks like this might be a change attacked for Senator Holly.
Let's listen to them.

Speaker 5 (02:02:24):
Here he goes, and meanwhile, these guys are fighting you,
mister O'Brien, every step of the way as gets the
basic representation for their workers, for their drivers.

Speaker 7 (02:02:35):
Tell us about what you've been facing.

Speaker 1 (02:02:37):
From this company, Ill gues. It's right.

Speaker 17 (02:02:39):
At one point, Amazon is probably the largest violator of
the NLR and right.

Speaker 1 (02:02:46):
Now, so this is I guess, this is guy, some
guy who's testifying in front of Congress about how much
these folks make and they have grown significantly to a point.

Speaker 17 (02:02:57):
They focus on one hundred and fifty percent turnover showing
their work for us. They focus on distressed community. That's
A the number one violator of OSHA. They've got the
most violations.

Speaker 1 (02:03:09):
Amazon does. But Amazon probably has the most employees.

Speaker 7 (02:03:11):
Right, Who's the.

Speaker 1 (02:03:13):
Biggest employer by employees in the United States of America?
Is it Amazon or they not? They're not up there
on that. Let's see what you can find on that.
If you can, Amazon or like, you know, who the
biggest employers are.

Speaker 7 (02:03:24):
It says the US federal government, particularly the Department of Defense. Okay,
so by Walmart and Amazon as the largest private employer.

Speaker 1 (02:03:34):
Also, I want to apologize Sea Lane is not a patriot,
so he doesn't realize he got it wrong. It's the
US Department of War. Okay, they have changed their name.

Speaker 2 (02:03:43):
Yeah, did you not get check your spam folder?

Speaker 1 (02:03:46):
And much like the Gulf of America, it's the Department
of War now, so that's number one. But what's the
first actual company not the government?

Speaker 7 (02:03:53):
Well, it says Walmart and Amazon. Walmart and Amazon are more.

Speaker 1 (02:03:55):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (02:03:56):
That's also very un American of you to ask, as well.

Speaker 1 (02:04:00):
I should, I guess, but Senator Holley was like, you
make too much money.

Speaker 5 (02:04:03):
And change you talk about that versus thirty seven thousand.
I'm just thinking back to your reference to a rerem
novarrem the dignity of the individual. I mean, how you're
supposed to raise a family on thirty seven thousand dollars.
The difference between that and what you've been able to
secure at ups is incredible.

Speaker 7 (02:04:16):
Let me just ask you this.

Speaker 5 (02:04:17):
Amazon is also one of the biggest offenders when it
comes to not negotiating with workers who decided to unionize.

Speaker 7 (02:04:24):
You mentioned status.

Speaker 1 (02:04:25):
It's very interesting if you know anything about politics by politics,
because this is absolutely something that sounds like a Democrat,
but that's Republicans talking about this. Amazon CEO makes at
least forty million dollars, says Josh Holly a year, while
the average Amazon worker makes less than thirty eight thousand
dollars a year. How is that pro worker or pro American?
It's time to put American workers first, he says Man.

Speaker 7 (02:04:47):
So there's even a claim that the Department of Defense
War depending on who you are, is the largest employer.

Speaker 1 (02:04:55):
In the world. Oh wow, really three million people? Yea,
Our military is not as big as China's military. Is
China's military getting paid? I don't know, but I would
have imagine China's military has more people in it. Hell,
India's military might have more people in it. I don't
know if that's true or not. But I'm just throwing

(02:05:16):
out things now and I'm giving Sea Land two and
it takes to correct me on in real time. I'm
just guessing population wise because there are multiples more time people,
more time question in India.

Speaker 7 (02:05:28):
China has the largest standing army, with over two million
active personnel than India one point four, United States one
point three.

Speaker 1 (02:05:35):
Damn, I'm good, but let me go.

Speaker 7 (02:05:38):
That is to say that not just the military, but
other aspects of the Department of Defense.

Speaker 1 (02:05:46):
Is what I would guess builds out that three million.
There's a lot of people. That's big. I don't consider
that in the same world. Crazy drunk cat lady says,
does Sean pass the US citizen class in high school? Jesus,
I don't know. I have no idea. Some people quibbling
with how I'm saying, Haley, Holly, Holly, Josh, Josh Holly.
And so that's how I'm saying. Is that wrong? Josh?

(02:06:07):
How Holly h A W L E Y? How else
do I say that?

Speaker 7 (02:06:11):
Holly?

Speaker 1 (02:06:12):
That's what I think it is, But I might be wrong.
I'm always willing to be wrong, folks. It just still
happens that I'm not very much all right. That's the
good thing about what I'm doing around here, very very accurate. Okay,
Sobrina didn't even know it wasn't two weeks that the
government shutdown had been going on. I f firing with
what it's the present? That would just be the present.

Speaker 7 (02:06:34):
How far we are?

Speaker 1 (02:06:37):
I told you I don't mind those anymore. I don't
mind those as farst right, two of them is still
not as bad as even a horn honk or something.

Speaker 7 (02:06:45):
You think that they would have find that NFL coach or.

Speaker 16 (02:06:51):
Stop that.

Speaker 1 (02:06:53):
Too far?

Speaker 7 (02:06:53):
You think they would have find hm double if he
had done double birds, because he just did the one bird.

Speaker 1 (02:06:58):
I think, right, what if he you should have just
taken out as vain as that's well when you do that,
I think the it's not a horn concert. The owner
of the Patriots tried that one, and that one.

Speaker 2 (02:07:12):
Also does it or it through some American cheese on it.
I think that I am mixing stories up.

Speaker 1 (02:07:20):
Oh that's a different one. Yeah, you're talking about the
Swiss cheese masturbator.

Speaker 2 (02:07:23):
Perhaps the last name was Craft, so I thought it
was American.

Speaker 7 (02:07:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:07:28):
Wow, we we don't know what Robert Craft is actually into.
There are lots of possibilities out there. People have all
kinds of different kicks. I'm not here to tell you
what to do. When we come back, we're going to
hear from you.

Speaker 7 (02:07:40):
We're going to tell you what to do. We're gonna
come back, We're telling you what to do.

Speaker 1 (02:07:44):
Let's do what's on your mind. I'll work in one dispatch.
I'm trying to get better about this and uh, I'm
working on an update to make the web recorded dispatches
better quality. Cocoa two fingers crossed. Let's see how this
one goes.

Speaker 9 (02:07:58):
Hello, Eddy's Junkie Crew podcast listener and a day behind.

Speaker 1 (02:08:04):
By the way, the the AI translation for this thought
it said, Chinese Junkie Crew.

Speaker 9 (02:08:13):
Crew, I hear it podcast listener, I'm a day behind. Well,
Zach Brian. I listened to him me and the wife.
He's pretty good. We listened to him and Steven Williams Junior.
Really good. Yeah, but uh, he's got good music. Not
too bad. But I listened to Zach Ryan on The
Joe Rogan show Man. He sounded like an idie.

Speaker 1 (02:08:36):
Really, I haven't heard that. Wait. Zach Bryan is the
one we talked about yesterday who had this song that
mentioned ice right the country star I believe. I didn't
know that he was on on Joe Rogan show. I
don't know anything about his politics, you know. I was
just assuming from the headlines that perhaps maybe he's trying
to take a stand on the Ice stuff, which isn't, like,

(02:08:57):
you know, just a right wing, left wing thing, though
it mostly lines up with that. If he was to
start putting that in songs, it does become political. And
it's funny because people will go, oh, really, is that
how rigid country music is?

Speaker 16 (02:09:14):
Well?

Speaker 1 (02:09:14):
Yeah, I mean almost all other music is the opposite
of that. Like if you had a rock band or
a rap group, God forbid, that was openly sort of Republicans,
small town, red state kind of stuff. I don't even
know how many of those exist. I don't think there's

(02:09:35):
a lot of those going on there. Even the bands
or the performers that people think are like these red
state anthems like born in the USA or something, they're
they're not, you know, that's not where they're coming from.
The place where things have tended to be a little
different is in country music where it seems to lean

(02:09:56):
a little bit more to the right or a lot
to the right politically. So that's why I was surprising
that somebody had a song and that was slamming Ice
in some way. But I guess afterwards he was like, no, man,
I'm just trying to bring everybody together. I don't know,
I don't know, I don't know. I guess it super
hard for me to see what somebody's motivations actually are.
I don't know if he's lying about that or if

(02:10:16):
you wanted to trying.

Speaker 2 (02:10:18):
To be closed all over the place.

Speaker 1 (02:10:21):
Like if I go by what that woman said, he
seems like he's a crazy ass boyfriend, so maybe he's
like that.

Speaker 6 (02:10:27):
The last I heard from him, we didn't talk about
it on the show, was and there's video of him
so mad at this festival at his former manager, who
is now becoming a very popular country star. Through the
gate was like, let's go, you want to do this,
and then climbed it. It had barbed and he flew
over it and tried to fight the person. He went

(02:10:48):
over a barbed wire fence to fight some son.

Speaker 1 (02:10:51):
Yes, and then.

Speaker 2 (02:10:57):
Grandkid, did you want to say anything?

Speaker 1 (02:11:01):
Damn?

Speaker 2 (02:11:02):
I'm not calling you threw me.

Speaker 1 (02:11:06):
I'm just messing with you, Jesus.

Speaker 2 (02:11:07):
But it's uh, I don't know. I think he's just
trying to get a good headline.

Speaker 1 (02:11:12):
Yeahs attached to it. Yeah, honestly, a lot of people
yesterday seem not to know him. Did you know any
of his music at all before this or just the drama?
I didn't know.

Speaker 7 (02:11:20):
I still don't those music. I just know that he's
a little too close and named Zach Brown and having
an ex girl named girlfriend named chicken Fry is really
really confusing people with that.

Speaker 1 (02:11:32):
Right, Oh, real quick. You mentioned earlier those the top
rolling Stone songs of.

Speaker 6 (02:11:37):
The I never got to him. There's second of the Century,
all right. Did you see the number one?

Speaker 7 (02:11:43):
I only saw number two because they were trying to
be a little click baby with the.

Speaker 1 (02:11:47):
Thing I saw, and it was like number two is this?
But they didn't tell me.

Speaker 7 (02:11:50):
What number one was.

Speaker 2 (02:11:51):
Oh yeah, I got you covered. I have all two
fifty we can do from.

Speaker 1 (02:11:57):
No, what what's ten? What's number ten? There's saying these
are the best of the two thousand so far of
the quarter century. Yes, you bet, I bet it. I
bet it sucks. I bet the first couple are garbage
or something. Rolling Stone usually does this stuff and they
put something at the top so that people will fight
over it, right, all right?

Speaker 6 (02:12:16):
I found it at number ten. Yeah, thinking about you,
Think about you, Franco.

Speaker 1 (02:12:24):
Okay, I don't even know that I know Frank Oshan,
but I we might know.

Speaker 2 (02:12:27):
What if we heard it, Think about you, Frank Oshan.
Number nine, toxic Britney Spears.

Speaker 6 (02:12:33):
Oh ye, all right, I'm gonna say this wrong, idiotic
idiot cue Radiohead.

Speaker 1 (02:12:41):
Two Thousan All right, I don't even know that one, all.

Speaker 6 (02:12:44):
Right, Kendrick Lamar, alright, all my life I've had to fight,
all right, Dancing on my.

Speaker 2 (02:12:52):
Own it was the end word. I was testing you guys.

Speaker 1 (02:12:54):
Oh well, I'm glad I didn't follow that instruction.

Speaker 2 (02:12:58):
Dancing on my own.

Speaker 6 (02:12:59):
Robin all too well. Taylor Swift at number five, Harry Swift.

Speaker 1 (02:13:05):
I know that one. That's the one that when she
did it on SNL she did, like the ten minute version.
There's better Taylor Swift songs.

Speaker 6 (02:13:14):
Yeah, number four, they're saying the greatest song of the
twenty first century.

Speaker 2 (02:13:20):
At number four seven Nation Army.

Speaker 7 (02:13:23):
It's a banger and it has stood the test of
time like they chanted at soccer games.

Speaker 6 (02:13:31):
Okay, so little quick side story. I was hosting the
city game and it was the hype before the second half. Yeah,
and my card had said, all right, say we got
three points that we need to get.

Speaker 2 (02:13:43):
Everybody, you're ready, let's start this chant and it's supposed
to be seven nation Army, and I.

Speaker 7 (02:13:48):
Went seven nation Army.

Speaker 2 (02:13:52):
I went zombiec.

Speaker 6 (02:13:57):
And not a single person in the twenty thousand people
that were there were alongside me.

Speaker 2 (02:14:03):
I said it was an auditor, so said the story.

Speaker 7 (02:14:06):
They didn't know that, or they didn't know this song
one Oh.

Speaker 6 (02:14:10):
Crazy in Love at number three, Yeah, at number two maps, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:14:15):
Yeah, I love that song. But I love that song,
I don't think most people will put.

Speaker 2 (02:14:19):
It in the top five and at number one. Do
you know what it is? Any guests?

Speaker 1 (02:14:23):
No idea. I literally have no idea. But my guess
is I think it's going to be something controversial until
people were like, are you kidding me?

Speaker 2 (02:14:31):
Like, I don't know, is it?

Speaker 1 (02:14:33):
I don't know. I have no idea.

Speaker 7 (02:14:36):
Pharrell, miss really, I mean that's a good song, Like
I'm not I'm not even questioning this song or the talent.

Speaker 1 (02:14:47):
Of Missy Elliott, and I don't know what that's crazy
to think about what it was two thousand and one.
Damn geeesus. All Right, we're gonna take quick break. We
will be back in just a moment. Some breaking news
coming in. We'll tap on that, tap on that a
little bit when we come back. People say that, we'll
also admit we are going to tap on that when

(02:15:12):
we return here on the show. And also these drunk
sisters arrested after a battle on a Frontier Airlines flight
that is coming up next on the News junk Key.

(02:15:38):
Thanks to everybody who's been watching the videos that I
post and supporting them. A new one up, what really
happened to Mark Sanchez? Take it off like wildfire? Over
on Facebook has got like a three hundred thousand plus
views so far in the last half a day or something.
Slowly but surely over on YouTube, that's where I'm really
trying to build audience overall. Thank you to the people

(02:16:01):
who watch those comment and all that good stuff. Go
check it out YouTube dot com, slash the News Junkie.
I hope this is censored. I mean that, you know,
I truly do. I'm assuming it is because it's posted
on the New York Posts Twitter account, but it might
not be if so we'll have to do a quick
censor of this. But there's some sisters that are in trouble.

(02:16:24):
Kiera Kiara Lyons twenty two and Mara Flores thirty one.
These sunburned, drunken Jersey sisters are in and yes, the
interaction that you're about to hear. They got kicked off
their flight at a Florida airport.

Speaker 7 (02:16:43):
This was in Orlando.

Speaker 1 (02:16:44):
They were at the Orlando International Airport. Happened earlier in
the year, I guess. But the video is just eking
its way around right now to drunken, sunburned Jersey sisters
allegedly attack the Frontier Airlines gate agent. Let's see what happens.
Stay by that dump button and let's see. I can't,
I can't. I'm here right now. Pushed her to the ground.

airline employees laying down on the ground right now. What happened,
Let's go back and see what she was saying there.
This is the airline employee in the gangway and she's
on the ground and she's talking to the.

which is more intoxicated.

Speaker 7 (02:18:09):

poor cop.

Speaker 2 (02:18:22):
But they had a nice time in Orlando, didn't this cop?

Speaker 1 (02:18:25):
This poor cop has to sort this crap out with
these people. You are embarrassing.

Speaker 7 (02:18:32):
You have to go to the bathroom.

Speaker 9 (02:18:33):
Yeah, you go to the bathroom. They stop you.

Speaker 1 (02:18:35):
They say you need to be escorted to the bathroom.

Ye, I need to please stay on track. She's hammered.
He's like, ma'am, I can't make any sense of anything
you're saying.

Speaker 6 (02:18:53):
My entire family worked for law enforcement. None of us
learned about sunscreen whatsoever. She is going to not only
feel that burn on her face because I'm looking at
zero sunscreen.

Speaker 1 (02:19:05):
Yeah, she's pretty red.

Speaker 2 (02:19:07):
She's definitely a fine and blacklisted off.

Speaker 1 (02:19:09):
Of whatever airline that is Frontier.

Speaker 7 (02:19:11):
It was Frontier Airlines.

Speaker 2 (02:19:13):
What always y'all come on?

Speaker 1 (02:19:16):
Yeah, yeah, and I get this. This turns into a
fat fight in a second here, but I don't know.
If it's on the clip, I'll tell you about the
details of it.

Speaker 9 (02:19:24):
He was like, no, you have to get off the plate.

Speaker 1 (02:19:26):
Yes, yes, it was.

Speaker 7 (02:19:30):
It was she keeps touching the.

Speaker 9 (02:19:35):
He was just trying to get you guys out.

Speaker 1 (02:19:37):
At any point during the flight, anybody put hands on
the girls and it was just verbal and they.

Speaker 9 (02:19:45):
So both of them putting their hands at the same time,
so both of them would be going to jail.

Speaker 7 (02:19:50):
Because you're willing.

Speaker 1 (02:19:52):
Both sisters heading to jail.

Speaker 6 (02:19:55):
You need to remember in Florida especially, but other states.
I imagine that if there is any call about domestic
violence or any sort of physical altercation, they were bringing
one person to jail. It is always the case, even
if like you didn't mean to say anything, or if
they both touched at the same time and ended up

(02:20:15):
being two high fives, any hands that are drawn, that
it is the law to bring someone to jail.

Speaker 1 (02:20:21):
Man, I bet they thought it was going to go
the other way too.

Speaker 7 (02:20:23):
Now of course you know they are, he says.

Speaker 1 (02:20:25):
Body Cam footage from the incident shows an Orlando police
officer approaching the airline worker, who was seated on the
air bridges floor after the alleged assault. She says, it
was the short, skinny one first that pushed me, and
then the bigger I mean, her sister pushed me right after, she.

Speaker 7 (02:20:41):
Said she said.

Speaker 1 (02:20:42):
The victim state she was asked to call a supervisor,
asked to call a supervisor, and then the police after
the sisters refused to ask exit the aircraft. As the
sisters were leaving, the worker claims Lions unleashed a verbal
attack on the flight crew and got in her face,
saying fu U fat bitch, I said thank you.

Speaker 7 (02:21:00):
She was facing me.

Speaker 1 (02:21:00):
She pushed me and then turned around and the sister
came up and shoved me again, and it caused her
to trip over something on the floor. She was on
the ground when the cops arrived. This is stupid stuff. Man.
You get drunk and you think like I'm gonna I'm
gonna call the cops on you, you end up going
to jail, dummy.

Speaker 7 (02:21:16):
Yeah, but to the sister's point, did that lady still
need to be on the ground did she still need
to be was she so?

Speaker 1 (02:21:25):
I probably probably not?

Speaker 7 (02:21:28):
But guess what she was?

Speaker 1 (02:21:31):
And they find themselves going to jail. Unfortunately, some breaking news.
This is this is good. We'll see how all this goes.
We're still not over the finish line. But a top
Hamas leader has declared an end to the Gozzo war.
According to Reuter's News. This is the hamaside saying that
the war is over. So they have declared an end
of the war. They still have to exchange these prisoners

(02:21:55):
and all of the hostages alive and dead that Hamas has,
and then the prisoner is that Israel has, and this
exchange is part of this deal. Things could still go wrong.
Trump is apparently going to fly over to the Middle East.
To talk with what is the equivalent of Congress in Israel,
the Kaness, And that looks like it's a good development

(02:22:16):
there in the Middle East. I really, really, really hope
they're going to win there. I really hope Trump gets
a win there. And it's a win for everybody. It's
a win for all the people in Gods, it's a
win for everybody. But all right, we'll see when we
come back. What we'll do is the final dispatches stories
that didn't make the cut, And today I learned to
wrap everything up for a Thursday that is coming up
next on the News Junkie. I had a conversation with

(02:22:53):
our friend Fritz last night. Super excited for Fritz being
part of the Roast Roast event coming up on October thirtieth,
twenty one days, that's three weeks from right now. You
could snag the last remaining tickets at the newsjunki dot
com slash Roast for this exclusive, highbrow event where we
get fancy, where some of us dress up in costumes,

(02:23:15):
and where we roast and get brutal. And Fritz, I
thought about what I'm gonna wear this, I know, I
thought about that yesterday for a second and then I
was like, I got three down. I think I'm gonna
dress nice, but I might do a little flare of
a costume.

Speaker 2 (02:23:30):
You're gonna put a blazer over a T shirt.

Speaker 7 (02:23:33):
No, I think I'm gonna wear a suit. I think
I'm gonna get like pieces of flair. Like I I'm
not sure.

Speaker 1 (02:23:39):
Exactly where this is all going, but I'm gonna dress
up for the event because it's it's a big event.
We're doing our live taping for the roast of Sean Watson.
That's me at the Doctor Phillips Center at an unbelievable venue.
Trust me on this, at Judson's Live, you will absolutely
love this intimate place. Right but talking with Fritz yesterday,

(02:24:02):
and Fritz is going to be like Trent Reznor to
the New Tron movie, like he is gonna be the maestro.
Fritz has created an exclusive soundtrack and a song and
a bunch of intro music and stuff just for the
roast event. And Fritz is going to be up there

(02:24:22):
orchestrating all these things and interacting back and forth with
me and the panel and the dais and everybody who
will be taking part in this event. I'm sure he'll
have his things to say. I'm sure people will take
shots back and forth, but it'll be so fun to
see him out there and Fritz goes, look, I gotta
pay a little tribute here. It's Halloween. Fritz will be

(02:24:45):
performing as Ozzy Osbourne. He's gonna be Ozzy Osbourne slash
Fritz in the Flesh, and he's got a custom soundtrack
for the event, and he's bringing all the Fritz stuff
that you you know and love, his great commentary and
jokes and all the rest. So I'm super excited for
Fritz to be a part of the Roast event as

(02:25:06):
Ozzy Osbourne with an awesome song and soundtrack that he's
been working on for the event, keeping it spooky. I
love him and we look forward to seeing him and
you there for October thirtieth, two or three weeks from
right now. Grab those final tickets at the newsjunkie dot com.
Slash Roast Okay Final Dispatches. Here we go the final dispatches.

Speaker 7 (02:25:31):
But Sean will probably only play don't tell me what
to do, but no, I'll play more than that.

Speaker 1 (02:25:38):
I will. Indeed, we'll play more than one, I assure you,
including this one that we're going to start with right here,
somebody's talking about Zach Brian. Let's skip that. Here's somebody
talk about open carry, because we discussed this happening at
public's right here.

Speaker 22 (02:25:56):
So here's my opinion on the open carry all right,
I get it, and I don't get it.

Speaker 2 (02:26:04):
You shouldn't have to carry it inside of the store.

Speaker 22 (02:26:06):
There should already be some sort of security measure there
out in public.

Speaker 9 (02:26:11):
I really don't care.

Speaker 22 (02:26:12):
In fact, I can view it as a deterrent. Now,
Jimmy on his show yesterday made a good point, and
what if you can open carry, but you decide to
conceal carry and then in an instant expose.

Speaker 9 (02:26:26):
Your concealed weapon. Is that like a puffing out your
chest move there?

Speaker 22 (02:26:31):
I don't know that I find to be the as
people like to refer to it as the little wiener move,
even though I don't think carrying a gun at all
says you have a little wiener.

Speaker 1 (02:26:42):
I don't know. I don't know if like you accidentally
show your gun, if you have a concealed carry permit,
if that is the same thing, or.

Speaker 7 (02:26:49):
Cause I think there was a lot of discussion. I
heard it a little bit on and off. I think
there was a lot of discussion on what at what
point are you brandishing. Brandishing carries a charge. I think
you have to be holding it right to brandish it.

Speaker 2 (02:27:07):
Yeah, carry it's trapped my back?

Speaker 16 (02:27:10):
What do I do this?

Speaker 2 (02:27:11):
And I point it is that brandishing now that I've.

Speaker 1 (02:27:14):
Brandishing it to me means you have it in a
firing position. But I'm not sure what's the actual brandishing.
You lift your shirt, wave or flourish. So, my god,
in anger or excitement, this is what this says to
shake or wave something menacingly. So you'd have to really

(02:27:39):
shake the gun around to prove that. I'm sure I
don't know a firearm, but I've done a lot of brandishing.
All right, let's see. I'm only just gonna play that
one dispatch. I hate, hate to do it, but I
lived up to it.

Speaker 3 (02:27:50):
Again.

Speaker 1 (02:27:51):
Here a woman was killed outside of Dallas pet smart
to our Dallas friend after an argument over not saying
thank you for a hell door. Somebody held open the
door for this person and then didn't say thank you.
It started a fight. They brought out a gun. The victims,
Cecilia Simpson, was shot multiple times after the dispute escalated

(02:28:11):
into a fight.

Speaker 7 (02:28:12):
That went past the brandishing stage.

Speaker 16 (02:28:14):
Yeah it did.

Speaker 1 (02:28:16):
Yeah, that's all the way there. And then I'll have
to do it for today. Let's get the hell out
of here. Let's do today.

Speaker 24 (02:28:21):
I'll learn.

Speaker 21 (02:28:21):
The following information may make you feel smarter, but will
not actually increase your IQ.

Speaker 1 (02:28:26):
So don't get cocky.

Speaker 21 (02:28:28):
Now it's done, or what we call today.

Speaker 1 (02:28:32):
It is Today learned Frey, Thursday, October ninth, twenty twenty five.
Today learned this movie right here. The Titanic is correct.
Real life Titanic victim Jeremiah Burke threw a message in
a bottle overboard, and it said, from the Titanic, goodbye

(02:28:54):
all Burke of Glanmyer, Cork.

Speaker 7 (02:28:56):
He spelled it wrong.

Speaker 1 (02:28:58):
From the Titanic, you know what I mean? And Tita
n I s Titanic, he said, I was trying to
do old timey voice and it made me put another
team and washed ashore a year later, only a few
miles from his family home in Ireland, and then remained
in his family for nearly a century.

Speaker 7 (02:29:16):
Before accident of Titanic proportions.

Speaker 1 (02:29:19):
Donated to a museum. Today learned in nineteen ninety seven.
Charles Taylor interesting Wikipedia page for this guy. He ran
for president in Liberia in ninety seven. His slogan was,
he killed my ma, he killed my paw, but I
will still vote for him. He won seventy five percent
of the vote. That was that's more effective than Make America.

(02:29:43):
It's a lot, seventy five percent of the vote. Kill
my ma, kill my paw, but I will still vote
for him. And today learned this guy right here, Joel.
That's right, Billy Joel and Bill O'Reilly. We're in the
same high school class. The bills Bill O'Reilly described himself

(02:30:03):
as a jock and Billy Joel as a hoodlum, which
looking back on both those the definitions for jock and
hoodlum must have changed drastically over the years, I would think.
But thank you so much for hanging out with us.
We do appreciate it. We're back tomorrow, same time, same place.
