from that cop that was singing the radio Head Creep songs.
Let's see what he said. A great Friday.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
We went away through a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and

good gun right there. You know. That's how good I'm
feeling today because the weekend is upon us and the
next thing, you know, we got a nice short Thanksgiving
week next week. And I don't know about you, guys,
but I like Thanksgiving. I am a fan and I

(01:03):
can't Coloni. That's right, buddy.

Speaker 5 (01:08):
It's going to be the first Thanksgiving I think in
my life that day of I got to do whatever
I want, Like, oh, I already celebrated Thanksgiving with my
family early with Nicole's family.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Uh huh.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
And actual Thanksgiving. What am I going to do?

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Could day drinking is harder with so much stuff closed
on Thanksgiving?

Speaker 6 (01:36):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:36):
But well, I guess you don't have to be in
an establishment to day drink. You could drink in your
front yard if you wanted to, Sabrina, you could really true.

Speaker 5 (01:46):
Yeah, I mean I can break into your house and
drink that booze too, that's true.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Yeah, don't let anybody stop you, don't. I don't let
anybody stop, well, not from my house, but from having
a good time on Thanksgiving. So we'll get geared up
for all of that in the moment here right now,
Let's start as we always do. Let's put our ears
to the ground, our fingers in the pulse. Unletss see
what's happening in this great, big, wide world of ours.
And I introduce to you the dumbest thing in the world, which,

(02:11):
all right, I know I often do on this show,
like it's not even a new thing for me to
introduce the dumbest thing in the world. And so many times, guys,
it's us, Like we can't blame anybody else, it's just
it's it's us.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
It's guys that have created this, men have done this.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
And I don't even want to hear about all this
CTE stuff anymore. Okay, I don't, because sport after sport
that guys seem to come up with is just one
dumb thing after another. UFC boxing, as fun as they
are to watch, probably bad for your brains.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Also, then they.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Turn it into that that what's the slap power.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Slap or whatever.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah, literally, you just.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Slap each other. That's it.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Now I'm introducing to you in today's opening clip, the
brand new sport Runnation, and Runnation consists of this. All right, really,
anybody can participate. You can participate if you'd like to.
I think you shouldn't, all right. Run Nation is a
new sport that they've invented where one guy lines up

(03:17):
on one.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Side of the.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Field I guess one side of the playing field. One
guy lines up on the other side of the playing field,
and then they run full speed at each other.

Speaker 5 (03:30):
It's like renaissance horses.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
A bit like with just your body. Here we go,
let's check it out, full speed run at each other.
That's just their bodies and skulls hitting each other.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Folks. There's nothing, there's.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
No real brisdow from what I there's no helmets, there's
no pads, there's you, there's no skill.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
You just run at another human being.

Speaker 4 (04:07):
Is Dana White behind this as well?

Speaker 2 (04:10):
I don't know. Maybe soon just plowing into each other.
I mean they gotta be breaking stuff.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Or here they go.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
They took their shirts off. Cool, that's just running into
each other. Guys, this is so stupid.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
No one's even cheering in the crowd.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
It's just.

Speaker 4 (04:37):
And then silence.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
If they could have, if we could have snapped the
fingers and had somebody from the Roman Colisseum days look
at this, they'd be like, you guys got lazy five.
This is what you do now. You don't even fight
lions or anything.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
You run into each other.

Speaker 4 (04:55):
Not entertained.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
I'm I'm entertaining it at the CT in action like
I'm watching the CT. It's happening to the next event
we do this. I mean, let's let's no more Pinewood Derby.
It's all the run Nation, all right. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (05:14):
Do you think Kevin from Wood Concepts can build a
human each other?

Speaker 2 (05:21):
I mean, imagine like this against everything that is inside
your body, Like when when you fall, your arms automatically
go out so that you don't harm yourself when you
hit the ground, and this is like just run full
speed at another human being and smash into them. And
that this is where I mean. It's football with usually

(05:42):
no ball and usually no pads and usually just running
to each other smacking fullulations. So imagine you're getting knocked
out and you wake up, You're like, what happened?

Speaker 1 (05:57):
What am I doing here? Oh?

Speaker 2 (05:58):
You were participating in a nation. Man, it was awesome.
It was a really good time.

Speaker 5 (06:03):
About You're trying to do some online dating and you
call yourself a professional athlete, and then you have to explain, yeah,
I just run full speed or another dude and see
who passes out.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
You are going to pick it up on the first
date with with whoever's doing this. There will not be
a lot of Nietzschee level conversation going on. It will
be very much me, eat food, me drink.

Speaker 4 (06:26):
Drink, wheelchair for rest of them life.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Definitely, they're all busted up.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Renation.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Congratulations, gentlemen, you've done it.

Speaker 6 (06:34):
I don't know, I don't know why.

Speaker 7 (06:35):
It doesn't get any more manly than this, but can
we just it feels a little family guy, ask right now,
can we just make up the next one, Like every
sport that goes further and further down the rabbit hole
of stupid is the next one.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
Just two guys lower their heads and then like each other,
ram their skulls into each other.

Speaker 5 (06:59):
Oh yeah, if you want.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Whoever that blows up your if your skull just explodes,
then that person loses.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
So sorry, That's just how it goes. It's talking about anyhow,
we are.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
On a Friday, We're getting ready for Thanksgiving week. It's
going to be exciting. One thing that has come up
in a bunch of the stories that I've seen start
to go viral in the last couple of days is
how I don't know if this is different or not,
but they're suggesting that things could be a little different
this Thanksgiving. And for the first time, it's not like
about political arguments or blah.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
Blah blah blah blah blah.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
This time, they're saying, because of the rising popularity in
many different things, it could be the first time that
more than half of your Thanksgiving group is stoned at
the time. Right, so you sit down at the Thanksgiving table,
look around. The stats now say that fifty percent of

(07:57):
the people, whether they're going to tell your Grandma is
high as a kite. Here she had fourteen h sea drinks.
Her eyeballs are rolling into the back of her head
right now. The story from the Wall Street Journal says
this year's Thanksgiving surprise, half the guests are stoned. And
it says, ever, notice in Thanksgiving dinner, when certain members

(08:18):
of your family returned from walking the dog or picking
up more ice, you're there suddenly laughing at everything you say.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
They said, it's called the cousin walk.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
The term is shorthand for the moment certain younger members
of the family grab their coats, go outside and get
stoned before rejoining the Thanksgiving facilities. They say, we kind
of look at each other and say, ready to go
for that walk. And this cannabis enthusiast says, I never
hit a holiday without a stash. We have a couple
of puffs and laugh about something, roll our eyes that

(08:50):
are silly, uncle, and go back to Thanksgiving dinner.

Speaker 5 (08:54):
Anonymous, I imagine.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
No, no, they named them.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Some Indian dude is Priyanka Polajie Los Angeles cannabis enthusiasts
who never hits a holiday without a stash. He says,
so a lot of the people Just think about this,
you just looking across that table, fifty percent of the
people your Thanksgiving or stone.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
Just for those of you that partake in this.

Speaker 5 (09:19):
Until you're around your family and you're inspired, just be
weary and remember that there's different levels of being stoned.
There is certain products that will make you chill and
laugh and have fun and eat food and those other
stuff where you're going to sink into a fish bowl
that is so scary and in front of you is

(09:41):
turkey you can't eat because you forgot.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
You're staring, staring at.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
The abyss of your plate.

Speaker 4 (09:48):
Not a good time Easter twenty three.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
Having layers deep thoughts about gravy and where it actually
comes from and picturing them milk, the turkey and the
gravies coming out. It's just weird, weird stuff in your brain,
weird weird things.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
It's going to be a wild Thanksgiving.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
Triple A, which is still around, believe it or not,
woll save your trip ticks.

Speaker 1 (10:09):
They'll be worth money someday.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Triple A is warning that Thanksgiving travel will break records.
Eighty one point eight million people will travel at least
fifty miles.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
That's a big portion.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Of the United states moving around out there, a lot
of dummies on the road. Be safe, be careful out there,
and it's going to be bad if you are on
the move. That's up two percent. The Thanksgiving traveler pool's
up two percent from last year. And if fifty percent
of em erstone, God only knows how slow everybody will
be going on the interstate.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
It's not going to be a good time.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
All right. We have to go deep into something we've
been following here on the show. This one is going
to rock your world a little bit. We've been following
the Anna Kepner mystery cruise death. Right now. We got
some big stuff rolling through her stepbrother. The evidence stacking

(11:03):
up against him that he is the creepiest person you've
ever heard of in your life is thick. It's thick today,
and I'm gonna tell you some of the new info
coming out. We got Anna Kepner, the woman who died
mysteriously on this cruise. Her ex boyfriend has come forward.
I have an interview with him where he's talking about
what this stepbrother used to do while he was on

(11:24):
the phone with his girlfriend. Okay, all right, we are
gonna swerve through this and go down the rabbit hole
because some big bombshells and the carnival cruise death story
are coming up next on the News Chunky. Join the show,

(11:56):
record a dispatch and send that over to the News
Chunky dit. If you've never been to the website before,
just go to the Newsjunkie dot com. You'll see where
you can record a dispatch to get your thoughts on
the show. If you're too scared to do that, send

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Let me bring you full circle on this. It's kind
of a simple story.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
At the base of it, an eighteen year old named
Anna Kepner. This girl who's a high school senior. I
think since she was cheerleader and all that stuff, had
her whole life ahead of her. She's out on a cruise,
a carnival cruise with her whole family. Anna Kepner's out
there and she's rooming with allegedly her brother and her stepbrother.

(12:34):
So the three of them are in this room. It's
not too unusual to have three people in one of
these smaller cruise ship rooms. They're designed differently for families
and stuff sometimes, so Anna Keepner, the eighteen year old,
is staying with her sixteen year old stepbrother and another
biological brother hers on this cruise ship and they're coming
back from Mexico heading to Tampa. She's at dinner with

(12:56):
the family. She says, I don't feel well. I feel sick.
And you know, as is the case a lot of
times on a cruise ship, it's kind of a relaxed atmosphere,
even in your family. So you might if you say,
I want to just go back to the room, and
it's not weird to do that.

Speaker 5 (13:08):
That makes sense and also makes sense that people might
be a little seasick so they want to go lay down,
and knowing that you know where they're at and you
can meet up anywhere, including you know, midnight pizza bar
or something.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
You're all on the cruise ship together. Where are you're going? Right, Like,
nobody's go anywhere. So she goes back to her room
on the cruise ship. Ana Kepner does Now we have
question marks everywhere about what happens. We know that she
then goes missing her brother. Her biological brother apparently goes
to sleep and wakes up, looks around and see she's
not there, doesn't realize he's slept on top of her

(13:45):
body all night because she was wrapped up in blankets
and shoved underneath the bed, and she was dead and
he was sleeping on top of her. They go and
search the whole ship, and the fallout from this begins,
and there are theories and specula absolutely everywhere. Let's fill
in some of the brook blanks here because the update
today about this stepbrother, creepy is the word of the day.

(14:09):
And here's one of the stories I've been looking at
Carnival Cruz deaths. Anna Kepner's stepbrother allegedly obsessed with.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Her, this says, and it says.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Anna Kepner was mysteriously found down at a Carnival cruise
ship two weeks ago. Now we're learning her stepbrother allegedly
had a strange infatuation with the teen cheerleader. He used
to climb on top of her in bed, according to
a new rapport by whom a report by whom.

Speaker 5 (14:37):
By who reported that, and how is that just now
coming out?

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Well, his family is starting to talk, and her ex boyfriend,
Anna Keepner's ex boyfriend is also starting to talk. Inside
Edition in this case interviewed Steve Weston, the father of
Kepner's ex boyfriend for an episode that aired Thursday, and
Weston made several shock and claims based on discussions he's
had with his eighteen year old son. The Anna Kepner girl,

(15:01):
she's eighteen years old. She was on the carnival cruise
with her with her stepbrother and other family member.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
She was found dead on board.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
According to Weston, Kepner's stepbrother was totally obsessed with her
and wouldn't stop pursuing her. Weston also claims Kepner was
frightened of her stepbrother because he always carried a knife
with him.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
You can't bring a knife.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
On a cruise, right, absolutely, right, So he probably didn't
have the knife with him on the cruise, even though she's.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Going to throw it out there.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
A lot of the speculation in rumors is that she
may have been stabbed.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
Now, I don't know if there's any truth to that, but.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
It's just worth mentioning that the knife is coming into
the picture here. Knife's available, yeah, right, Look, I haven't
I'm going on a cruise in a couple of weeks.
Here have been in twenty years.

Speaker 4 (15:49):
Or something, day times huh yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah, yeah, since maybe even before that, A long and long,
long time ago. And can you if you go, if
you go to eat something somewhere on the cruise, will
they give you like a steak knife? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (16:04):
Yeah, they have silverware. Depends on you know what you're eating.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
But so you could get your hands on her knife, right, yeah, yeah, okay,
you can get your hands.

Speaker 5 (16:13):
You could still do damage with a butter knife. I
imagine if you're.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
A crazy that would hurt.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
That's my butter knife would be a rough one.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
If that didn't possible. Uh.

Speaker 5 (16:25):
Now that being said, and the reports that are coming out,
and if she's thought of her stepbrother as creepy and
afraid of him, how did she end up in the
same room.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
I don't know. That's I mean, this family is very
curious and getting curiouser to me all the time.

Speaker 1 (16:42):
There's some weird stuff going on here.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
But the father of her ex boyfriend says he once
saw Kept, her stepbrother enter her room and get on
top of her while she was asleep. This says during
a FaceTime call. Weston describes Kept, her stepbrother is having
a crazy infatuation because you always wanted to date her.
The FBI is launching an investigation et cetera, et cetera,

(17:05):
et cetera. Now I've got the ex boyfriend actually talking
about this. We'll get to that momentarily. But now we're
also learning that perhaps the stepbrother was hospitalized too. I
don't know, it's crazy, man. The mom in this story
was in court. There's all kinds of stuff. So let's
get some of the updates from Channel six. Here. Here
we go.

Speaker 8 (17:25):
Anna Kepner's sixteen year old stepbrother, quote is a suspect
in her death on a carnival cruise ship. That information
is not coming from law enforcement. It's coming from the
sixteen year old's parents. Those parents were just in court,
all right.

Speaker 9 (17:38):
If the court isn't aware that apparently this has been
made national news.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
This online all right. You have Sean tel Kepner in
this zoom court hearing here, that's what they're referencing. This
was the first time we learned that, hey, the stepbrother
in this cruise murder mystery is probably going to be
charged here, so that means you all eyes on him.

Speaker 8 (18:01):
Court hearing involving a child custody case took place just
hours before a memorial service honoring Anna Kepner, who was
found dead on a carnival cruise ship. The teen was
joined on that cruise by her father, her stepmother, and
at least two of her stepmother's children from another marriage,
a nearly nine year old daughter and sixteen year old son.

(18:23):
Those two children were the subject of this court hearing.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Can I speak?

Speaker 2 (18:28):
This is Sean?

Speaker 8 (18:29):
Tell her the children's mother and Anna Kepner's stepmother.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
All right, this is Anna.

Speaker 6 (18:35):
She looks.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
I don't have an age on her on Shauna, but
Shawna is the stepmother of the eighteen year old that
died in this case.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
All right, this is a stepmother.

Speaker 8 (18:44):
She's in a child custody dispute with her ex husband,
Thomas Hudson. Seated on the right. The former couple says
their sixteen year old son, quote, is a suspect in
his step sister's death.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
Well, you're, honor.

Speaker 9 (18:57):
It's our understanding that because they're cus was in international waters,
that the young child, not the nine year old, but
the sixteen year old, was allowed to drink. The teenagers
were given their own room in which to stay. Just
a lot of circumstances that showed that the mother in

(19:18):
this case was not exercising appropriate supervision over this child.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
All right, let's stop there a couple of things. First
of all, this is the attorney for the father in
this paternity case here, and he's saying that they were
in international waters on this cruise and that the kids
were allowed to drink. That, as far as I'm aware,
is just not true. You're not allowed to drink at
sixteen years old on a carnival cruise. They will not

(19:46):
serve you. They will not There are some places where
you can drink at eighteen. If you go to some
places in different countries, their drinking ages might be lower,
and if you can prove your age and you are
of their drinking age, you might be able to do it.

(20:07):
But you can't drink because you're in international waters on
the carnival cruise ship. That doesn't mean the parents weren't
like giving them alcohol or something. That's not out of
the question, but that part just it's just not how
it goes or the other child involved. Sean Tell.

Speaker 8 (20:20):
Kepner's attorney disputes that.

Speaker 10 (20:22):
Their videotapes on the ship that confirm that there was
absolutely no drinking, and that there's and DCF investigated and
so that there was no alcohol in mom's house whatsoever,
So I'm not sure where that's coming from.

Speaker 8 (20:40):
Resolution to the child her attorney dispute, which will be
handled at a future court hearing. We did learn that
sixteen year old step brother was taken to the hospital
after the cruise for undisclosed reasons. He is now living
with a relative on his mom's side of the family.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
All right, so there's more news. This step brother was
hospitalized after all of this for what. We don't know
that either the stepbrother is now living with some other
member of the family, was hospitalized after he allegedly killed
this step sister, and where has not been charged with
anything yet has been true, has not been charged with

(21:17):
anything yet. I still have the audio of her ex
boyfriend talking about just how creepy his experience with his
stepbrother was.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
I'm going to play that a little bit later on.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
In the show, and we'll go a little bit deeper
into what's happening here in this cruise murder mystery, because
it absolutely is a thrill a minute in the worst
kind of way for the family. But we're watching that
story closely, so we'll see what happens there. They're saying,
he's infatuated, he's creepy. Those are the two big words
today when it comes to the brother. We want to

(21:49):
hear from you. A lot of people emailing already tips
at the Newsjunkie dot com. I love to see those. Also,
your dispatch is coming in at Thenewsjunkie dot com. One
thing you should know this, This was like a weird
thing on the show not that long ago, we talked
about how real ID was coming into play, and after

(22:09):
all these years, people had all this time to get
ready for real ID, and then the TSA was going
to stop allowing people to use identification if you didn't
have an updated real ID right star or something right.

Speaker 1 (22:24):
But then they just then.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
It just kept going it just like they just kept
letting people through no matter what it was, whether you
had the star or the real I D thing or not.
And now there's a new change for you on this front.
And it won't happen to you this Thanksgiving or Christmas
if you're traveling, but as of January, if you don't

(22:45):
have an updated passport or real ID license, the TSA
is going to charge you eighteen dollars at security.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
You try to go through.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
You will talk to TSA and be they have to
do some additional tests on you. They will literally charge
you an eighteen dollars fee. All right, it's just gonna
ask you a couple of questions real quick.

Speaker 5 (23:08):
Yeah, like what is the passcode for your bank?

Speaker 2 (23:12):
And all you have to do is give up eighteen
dollars and then you'll be able to get like a
temporary like a temporary version of TSA plus or whatever
because it allows you Yeah, it's like pre check, but
for ten days with your ten dollars fee that you
end up playing confusing according to this notice at the

(23:33):
airports right now.

Speaker 5 (23:34):
Do you not remember a couple months ago that there
was a story that Apple or iPhones at least we're
going to start moving forward with having your ID on
your phone.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Yes, yes, yeah, happened with that.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
The digital ID thing is very controversial and so that moves.

Speaker 1 (23:52):
Slow in a lot of places.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
But they're doing it in the UK, so they could
start doing it here where you have like a digital
ID on your phone, people just get worried that it's
going to be attached to like big government social credit system.

Speaker 4 (24:06):
Kind of crazy s Beyond that, they.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
Have a well, not in one handy dandy place, which
is what the worry would be if you start to
have these like digital IDs. I don't know that we're
gonna be able to fight all this stuff off. But
now that's that's out there too. If you don't have
a real ID come January, you will be paying eighteen dollars.

Speaker 1 (24:26):
To the TSA. What do you think about this?

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Hit us up with your response tips tips at thenewsjunkie
dot com. We'll get into your dispatches and we'll get
into one of the bigger fake news stories of the
week that that got a lot of people, but didn't
fool me. I was not tricked by this. As sexy
as the story was. What was this piece of fake
news that really convinced a lot of people who was real?

(24:52):
I'll tell you that's coming up next in the News Junkie.
A lot of fake news out there, fake news galore.

(25:14):
People were telling me in the past, like you should
highlight more of these stories because so many people are
are fooled by them, so much of this stuff goes viral.
I say, it's impossible to fight that battle like I
would do that, and I'd go, here's those fake here's
what was real. I try to keep everybody loose, but
it's literally it would be me. The meme would be
me versus a never ending fire hose of water, Like, yeah,

(25:40):
they're just gonna there's too many moles.

Speaker 5 (25:42):
Like a field, like a football field of moles.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
Yes, one football field with moles every three inches.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
Runnation, Yeah, they're all good at runation.

Speaker 2 (25:53):
And all I have is one mallet and I'm going around.

Speaker 5 (25:58):
It's too much wild and I I mean, we started
off with the fake news being stuff that was shared
on social media. Yeah, you know, websites that came off
as sources, but they were obviously very fake. And now
we've got AI that comes into play. So it's hard
to explain something to what seems to be like a dummy,

(26:21):
like a CPR dummy.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Yeah. And the most frustrating thing, at least to me, Sabrina,
is people will see something like this and this story
is a different type that I'm going to show you
is one of the most viral fake, fake, fake stories
of the week. But so many times, if it's let's
say it's like a political thing or something, somebody will
go did you hear this? How crazy is this? And
then you'll go, oh, actually that's not true. Here's what's

(26:45):
actually happening, and the person will go oh, okay.

Speaker 1 (26:47):
And then we'll just go on to the next thing.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
Like there's never a moment where they go oh my god, Wow,
do you have any suggestions on how I could avoid
fake news in the future?

Speaker 4 (26:56):
And now I use your eyes and brain.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
They don't care. They're like, oh, that's fake anyhow did
you see the video of the cat ice skating the
other day? Holy Carrio.

Speaker 5 (27:07):
Oh, there was like a whole compilation that popped up
on my TikTok of dogs saving babies, and mind you,
the first one, I was like, okay, let me go
check the comments, and it was very quickly with all
other twelve videos of dog saving babies that it was ai.
But you look at those comments and it's like.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
So amazing's best friend. Yeah, this is why, and somebody
will take it negative for no reason. This is why
cats suck?

Speaker 1 (27:38):
What what?

Speaker 2 (27:39):
Hey? Right? The fake video was like a dog dragging
a toddler out of a pool is the reason why
you want a neighborhood campaign to kill cats. I was like,
that's how the world is in twenty twenty five. Now
here's the story. Tens of millions of views this week

(27:59):
and it all comes down to a man by the
name of William Banks. And there's a lot of cursing
in this. So I'm gonna mute it, play it. I'll
play it for our streamers, our streamer friends, the folks
who are watching the show as you should be over
on YouTube dot com slash the news junk. You go
check it out today, come hang out with us, even
for just a moment, to see what everything looks like.

(28:20):
So this guy, William Banks started a viral story this week.
I'm convinced he paid some big influencers on social media
platforms to do this, because that's where I saw. I
saw a bunch of people going, whoa is this real?
Holy cow, this guy's crazy. Oh my god, somebody send
the cops. Is this really happening? And all these accounts

(28:42):
at the same time seemed to tweet about this, so
I think he might have paid for some of the exposure.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
But the guy's name is William Banks. Here he is.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
He's on an island. He's on an island I'm looking
at and he's got his life a preserver around his
neck and he's washing up an island. There's other people
he does I don't know why. There's other people behind him,
all in their life vest that have washed up onto
this beach, And if I had the audio on, you

(29:11):
would hear him going.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
Well, stranded on an island. I'm straightened on an island.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
And then people in the background are just like, holy F,
Holy F. You know, over and over and over. That's
what they got going on. So I'll keep the audio
muted on account of the FCC. But this guy says,
they're they're stranded on an island. I don't know how,
I don't know why. He has a boxing glove on.
I don't know who these people are that are with him.

(29:36):
There's even little kids out there. And at some point
I think the person grabs the camera here, Hey, hold on,
this isn't it?

Speaker 11 (29:43):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (29:44):
Is this on the Hello? We all right? So these
are all the people with.

Speaker 5 (29:52):
Him allegedly Hello, sick.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
He's getting the message out there.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
It hasn't asked, like who is connected to the phone
or anything, but he's like hello. So then they all
start fighting, describe and the whole thing is chronicled on
this guy's Twitter account, which and almost has one hundred
thousand followers as a result of this. He said, we
are lost on an island, and then over and over
and over it was like just different videos from the

(30:22):
island and like fighting starts to break out on the
island and we're going on a treasure.

Speaker 1 (30:28):
Hunt on the island.

Speaker 2 (30:29):
The TV show. No, it's just all it's just all
the viral campaign that he was doing on his Twitter account.

Speaker 4 (30:36):
Album coming out as soon as we get off this island.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
Whole thing was like them save us, We're stuck on
this island. Millions and millions and millions of views his
account says I'm lost on an island off the coast
of Argentina. He wasn't, just so, you know, lots of
stories though, trying to explain what's going on with the
viral guy claiming he's shipwrecked on an island. This was
internationally reported across the globe. All these different news outlets

(31:03):
from you know, Spanish news outlets to Jim Japanese. Everybody
was reporting on this. But it says William Banks is
currently all over social media saying he's lost on an
island off of Argentina.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
He's not just so, you know, fake fake, fake news.

Speaker 5 (31:20):
You know what this reminds me so much of and
I don't know if you remember this, but Lonely Girl.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
Fifteen yeah, yeah, yeah, back in the day.

Speaker 4 (31:30):
I mean before she walks over, y'all could run.

Speaker 5 (31:33):
And this was a girl that was posting on YouTube and.

Speaker 4 (31:39):
Then all of a sudden I got crazy.

Speaker 5 (31:40):
I mean, he started off with the whole island stranded thing,
but she was like, this is my daily life, and
all of a sudden, I'm being kidnapped. And then theirs
sci fi.

Speaker 4 (31:48):
And aliens involved, right, and you find.

Speaker 5 (31:50):
Out after the fact that it's like a sci fi
thriller that everyone was tuned into.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Everybody goes nuts for this stuff because people want to believe.
They're like, there's a dog on social media who's stuck
on an island and we got to help them. Fake news,
all right. If you hear the William Banks story, it's
fake news. The whole thing is fake news, now, you know.
All right. We'll take your thoughts on that and all
other things in your world today over at thenewsjunkie dot com.

(32:20):
Thank you to kat bh for gifting a secret show subscription.
Appreciate that. What a good person you are, What a
sweet person. Over to this email from Charles who said
I was infuriated by the story about the woman who
killed that family yesterday. Well, yeah, I mean, if you weren't,
I don't know what to tell you. How everybody was.

(32:40):
There's woman in Brooklyn who was like an influencer type
who killed a family and said, why should I apologize
on a jailhouse call, Why should I apologize? My life
is just as ruined as theirs? And she got three
years three years. Three people died in the accident. She
had run multiple red lane lights on that same journey.

(33:02):
She was speeding a way way way over the speed
limit and she had sixty something something like that. And
then she had a ridiculous amount of traffic infractions in
the last year ninety if I remember ninety, like for
never stopping at stoplights. She just didn't stop at stoplights.
It's like you get in the car with this lady
and she goes, oh, just so you know, first of all,

(33:24):
I like peanut butter, not jelly.

Speaker 1 (33:27):
I'm a big fan of Taco Bell, and I don't
stop at stop lights.

Speaker 4 (33:31):
I stop light.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
They're more not a suggestion. Yeah, and I'm suggesting that
they kissed my ass. I drive right through the thing.
So Charles says, screw that lady. In two thousand and four,
one of my best friends was killed by a woman
who was speeding in a work Zomee flipped a barrier
on nine ninety five and killed my friend along with
her boyfriend and one other persons.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
The woman who killed them.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Had a suspended license, no insurance, and had a van
full of kids. She was only given thirty days in jail,
and then went before a judge crying her eyes out,
saying how much of an inconvenience it was to her
family to have to spend thirty days in jail and
ask them to be reduced. He did not reduce it,
but that was the only consequence she faced for killing

(34:16):
three people. The woman in Brooklyn should have been given
a lot more time. In my opinion, I agree and Charles,
I think a lot of people agreed.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
To see that story. I think a lot of people
are on.

Speaker 5 (34:27):
The same page a fat civil lawsuit editor away.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
For me, it's just more and more evidence that we
have judges who are completely have completely lost the plot.
We have prosecutors who have completely lost the plot. Everyday,
Americans still believe that if you do something bad, you
should get punished for it. I do not care about
whatever social experiments you're trying to work on. I only

(34:53):
care about keeping people safe, and this doesn't do that.
It's disgusting. It's an absolute travesty, and unfortunately it happens
far too often. So all right, let's get to a
couple of dispatches real quick. Somebody talking about their upcoming
holiday weekend.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
Thanksgiving is close. Let's see what's going down.

Speaker 12 (35:12):
A few years ago, I was at a family gathering,
nice and my cousins and I wanted to go back
and you know, have the old safety meeting. Oh so,
as we're trying to sneak out back, my little five
year old niece comes over and says, I want to
go outside with you.

Speaker 2 (35:28):
My cousin says, no, you got to say inside, he says,
and we're oh, well, we're spraying poison outside, so there's no.

Speaker 1 (35:36):
Bucks in the backyard.

Speaker 2 (35:38):
She goes back inside and she says, hey, everybody, don't
go outside right now.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
They're spraying poison.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
Just calling them all out. Yeah, yeah, the people are
going to catch on if you try to leave the
Thanksgiving table. As apparently this news story tells us about
fifty percent of people do to get a little sneaky high.

Speaker 5 (35:58):
Well, he could just bring us back of the wheat Seltzers.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
At this point you wouldn't even know, really, I mean,
especially around like older people. They won't even realize what
you're drug them.

Speaker 4 (36:08):
They won't even realize it too late.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
It'll be like nowadays though, it was just another Seltzer.
There's somebody Seltzer's out there and you go, yeap, just
another seltzer. Most people completely like me. I've said half
of one. I had half of a nowadays THHD drink
last night, right off to cartoon sleepy Town right. I
knew I was going to bed in about twenty minutes.
Have my half of a nowadays right off the cartoon

(36:33):
sleepy Time. Just gorgeous for me. Then, I don't know
if I did I share this story. I forgot if
I did or not. But Dylan came over and while
he was here, just in the middle of the day,
randomly he goes, can I have one of those nowadays?
And I said sure, I guess, and he just slammed
it like it was a red bull. He wasn't impacted

(36:53):
at all. No, I mean, yeah, well, I guess he's
built up some dollars He's slammed wide and he was like,
you guys want to go to lunch and I'm driving.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
Don't you need to take a nap for four hours?

Speaker 2 (37:08):
What's going He's like, no, it's not even a bumping
the oad store employee of the year right there? Yeah, right, yeah, yeah,
he knows what he's doing. He was not impacted at all.
One more, here's Concrete Mike, who says people are dumb.

Speaker 13 (37:20):
Happy Weekend News junkie crew. Hey, so does William Banks clown?

Speaker 14 (37:24):
Uh?

Speaker 13 (37:24):
That random island he was trained on just having to
have Wi fis so he could post that and he's
straighted on an island charging his phone. Is there electricity?
I don't get it. People are dumb? How can people
believe that stuff? Anyway, hope you all getting into something
good this weekend. I'm going to be helping my daughter
move into her new house all day tomorrow. So nice

(37:46):
that's what they plan.

Speaker 1 (37:47):
Oh good for you, Concrete, My good luck out.

Speaker 5 (37:49):
Two little moments here. External battery and the Tesla star Line.

Speaker 2 (37:56):
Starlink Starlink access would probably give you some sort of connection.

Speaker 1 (38:01):
Yeah, I mean, but it doesn't take that right.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
We all knew you guys knew, Josh Saberne, you knew,
like watching this just from five seconds, like, it's not real,
the guy stranded on an island.

Speaker 5 (38:12):
But I appreciate it. It was actually filming it versus
an AI video.

Speaker 2 (38:16):
Yes, it was a real guy, you like, a real
acting setup. But it just is amazing how many people
get fooled by this stuff as simple as it seems. However,
if they think that the cat is actually playing the
fiddle in the middle of the night outside this woman's house,
they'll probably think this guy is really stranded on an
island outside of Argentina, too, And that seems to be

(38:37):
the case. I've got the additional bombshells about the cruise
murder mystery. Anna Kepner, the eighteen year old who died
her ex boyfriend. We're gonna hear from him and some
of the claims he says.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
We'll do that.

Speaker 2 (38:50):
I think after the next episode we'll get into this
audio which kind of changes everything. A politician who really
made a mistake. She was caught on some audio saying
I hate Nashville, I hate the Bridesmaids. She's following up
she got a response for us, so we'll see what
she says that's coming.

Speaker 1 (39:07):
Up next in the news.

Speaker 2 (39:08):
Chunky, it's a brave move. It's a brave move. But
I mean, everybody hates certain things about cities. People don't

(39:31):
like to admit this. Sabrina hates things about Orlando. For instance,
what's the.

Speaker 6 (39:36):
Thing you tell me?

Speaker 1 (39:37):
You tell me, what's the thing you hate? You hate about.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Orlando that it's not.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
Cuter?

Speaker 2 (39:44):
Wow? You hear this, folks. She doesn't think it's cute enough.
She hates Orlando.

Speaker 5 (39:49):
Yeah, I'm trying to think. I mean, there's certain Okay,
here we go. You ready, Yeah, the never ending I
for construction.

Speaker 2 (39:57):
Okay, there you go, there you go, never ending eye
for a construction.

Speaker 4 (40:01):
Hate it Florida?

Speaker 2 (40:04):
Uh me, I don't have much about Flora.

Speaker 5 (40:06):
Love is something you definitely hate about Florida.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
What I don't love is what I hate.

Speaker 2 (40:15):
What do I hate about Florida?

Speaker 4 (40:20):
Immigrants are what the hell are you talking about? All
the ingredients?

Speaker 11 (40:27):
Sorry?

Speaker 2 (40:28):
Correct? Yeah, off the air, I'm constantly ranting about immigrants. Yeah,
I kick on school mic and I'm like, get him
all out of here. No, I would say, and this
is like stupid criticism, But I do mildly hate that
there's not more differences in weather for the season. The

(40:52):
only thing, little little thing that I hate about the city,
Josh and his case hates the Jews in Orlando. Not
a big fan, but that's kind of controversial. Jews. Yeah,
only only these Central Florida Jews are the he loves
other Jews. Yeah, I'm down with Miami. Yeah, he's down

(41:14):
with the other ones, but just in Central Florida. So
I think if you don't know what we're talking about,
I should bring this a little bit of full circle here.
There's a woman who is running for political office in Nashville,
and we played a video of her because it came
out that she was on some sort of podcast, and
she was like, I hate the city. I hate Nashville.

(41:34):
I hate the Bachelorettes, I hate the pedal taverns, I
hate country music, I hate all of the things that
make Nashville Nashville. And it was like, Oh, this is
the person that's running for office and she hates the city.

Speaker 1 (41:46):
Interesting strategy.

Speaker 2 (41:47):
I don't know when we were going after things that
you could say that you do hate about these cities
that maybe some people would agree with. But she is
responding after her video went viral this week of her
hating the city, hating Nashville, and it says breaking, I
do not hate Nashville. Lol.

Speaker 1 (42:08):
I mean she kind of said it in the clip.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
That's why it.

Speaker 5 (42:11):
Wasn't leaked audio, right, it was she was aware of
what she was saying.

Speaker 2 (42:15):
We live in a world of resurfaced audio now, which
kind of just means a person found a clip that
could be seen as bad, but they like seated it
around to places. So here she is responding to the
clip about her hating the city.

Speaker 1 (42:31):
She wants to be in charge.

Speaker 15 (42:31):
Of the representative ofton being here, the Democratic nominee for
the seven congressional special election in Tennessee. If you just
sung in little segments in my jeep Wrangler called time, Yes, okay.

Speaker 2 (42:43):
I'm not voting you for for that reason, I'm not
voting for you. It's I do a wrangling time segment
from my jeep Wrangler.

Speaker 5 (42:53):
Anyone you guys watching the chair?

Speaker 2 (42:56):
Yes, no tours again, it's not watch this weekend. We
we did start watching just for the record of Pluribus
last night because cord Is, like a friend said I
should watch this, and I don't know. I'm not convinced
on it yet, Like, I had kind of fun from
the first two, but I haven't seen the third one yet.

Speaker 5 (43:18):
Was interesting, but it was a little bit slower. But
I think it's just setting up for stuff.

Speaker 2 (43:25):
Yeah, because I thought the second one was slow. It's
about a woman.

Speaker 4 (43:28):
I'm like, what is going on?

Speaker 5 (43:30):
I can't even get ready for this gig I'm about
to go to because of what's happening.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
The woman is a survivor in a world where a
virus is like knocking out almost everybody, and then she
has to make some decisions after that.

Speaker 4 (43:43):
Person in the world.

Speaker 2 (43:45):
They said that that's what the pitch was, but when
I watched it, I said, this was a really bad
pitch for this.

Speaker 1 (43:50):
I don't find her to be the most miserable person.

Speaker 5 (43:54):
They a reflection of what you would be doing in.

Speaker 2 (43:56):
A world like that. I'm just saying I don't find
her to be soon so we're miserable. I just find
her to be like, oh, she's trying to figure out
how to save humanity. I don't think that's miserable at all.
I didn't think her character was miserable. I just I
don't know if I'm sold on it yet. However, it's
back to wrangling time. Okay, this woman is doing wrangling time.
Let's give her some some tension here and see what's

(44:17):
going on in the car.

Speaker 15 (44:18):
For those of you just joining in, I often record
segments in my jeep wrangler called wrangling time.

Speaker 4 (44:24):
Yes there is a.

Speaker 15 (44:24):
Theme song, and no I will not be singing it today,
but yes I will bring it back because I know
a lot of you miss it and you've said I
I sing, well, I don't believe it.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Now I want to hear this song now my curiosity.
Oh man, gee, you know what it's. I thought it
was going to be. It's wrangling time. Kalla lou.

Speaker 1 (44:47):
Yet that's what I feel like.

Speaker 2 (44:50):
Can somebody look up her TikTok so we can find
a wrangling time and hear the song which she's done it.
Vote Afton is her her name, so vote af t y.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
And now I got to hear the wrangling times.

Speaker 5 (45:02):
Well, so I look a little rough.

Speaker 15 (45:04):
I have bags under my eyes because the Republican eye
of Sauron has finally shifted towards wah.

Speaker 5 (45:11):
And I'm sure you've seen the commercials.

Speaker 15 (45:14):
I'm sure you've seen the onslaught of ads, and then
today the Republicans decided that they're going to start this
narrative that me, the state representative who represents downtown Nashville.

Speaker 4 (45:28):
Doesn't like the city all right.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
Well, in their defense, you did say you hated the city.
That was in the quote that they're playing that I
hate Nashville, and then you said out all the things you.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
Hate about Nashville.

Speaker 2 (45:42):
It included country music and all the things that make
downtown downtown. So I don't think that's like an unfair
characterization of that clip unless there's something before or after it.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
Maybe she got more info.

Speaker 16 (45:53):
Now.

Speaker 15 (45:53):
I always want Nashville to be better, right, I want
Nashville to be a place where working people can thrive. Right,
But sure I get at the patch we're at. Sometimes
I get mad at the pedal tapperns.

Speaker 5 (46:02):
Right, Ben, you're talking to someone.

Speaker 15 (46:04):
Who has cried no less than ten times in the
Country Music Hall of Fame.

Speaker 4 (46:08):
The girl that just goes to the rhymen to hang out.

Speaker 1 (46:11):
Awesome, No, no we're not.

Speaker 4 (46:13):
We're not even gonna go there. We are so close
to winning this race.

Speaker 2 (46:16):
So now she's gone from I hate country music a
big part of Nashville culture to I cried ten times
in the Country Music.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
Hall of Fame.

Speaker 2 (46:25):
I go to the rem and just to hang out.
Which one of these am I supposed to believe?

Speaker 5 (46:29):
I know this music is the same.

Speaker 4 (46:31):
Let's be honest.

Speaker 17 (46:32):
No, that's true, but she should have specified she hates
bro country.

Speaker 2 (46:36):
She said, I hate country music, just flat out now.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Which one of you is real? Is this the real one?

Speaker 2 (46:42):
Do you actually really like Nashville and in country music
makes a cry? Or is the other one real where
you hate Nashville? They different?

Speaker 4 (46:51):
I think that it is.

Speaker 5 (46:54):
Maybe you know, we're at the point where you have
to say exactly what you mean and explain it in
all the different ways so that everyone understands.

Speaker 4 (47:02):
But I'm seeing her being real, right.

Speaker 5 (47:05):
That looks like an elder millennial to me, where you
have your vent moment, you're being honest about it, you don't,
you know, kind of sugarcoat or kid gloves everything where
it's like, yeah, I can't stand country music. Or the
Bachelorettes where I can't get to my apartment in Nashville
because there's fifty girls pedaling barely.

Speaker 4 (47:29):
On this bar bike.

Speaker 2 (47:30):
I would feel like if I was a Nashville citizen,
I would go yeah, some of these things I hate too,
but some of the things you said were more broad
and not like everybody can hate the.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
Bachelor a fine country.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
Everybody can hate the.

Speaker 2 (47:48):
You know, the pedal car bars things, but all like
just saying I hate everything that the downtown area is
about is going to be a harder one for you
to to go over here. She said it on the
Grit podcast, which that was originally something was happening that these.

Speaker 4 (48:05):
Rumors are getting more wild.

Speaker 15 (48:07):
So I can't wait to see what they come up
with next.

Speaker 5 (48:10):
But y'all please keep doing the work.

Speaker 15 (48:12):
We had a huge group show up today to Canvas in.

Speaker 4 (48:15):
The middle of the afternoon.

Speaker 5 (48:17):
It was raining, it was wet, and Sir came.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
Up to me.

Speaker 15 (48:19):
She said, you, your campaign is inspiring so many of
us across the state and across the country. Keep it up,
and so you know what, I'm gonna keep it up.
I'm gonna keep keep doing what I'm doing, which is
fighting to make healthcare and life more affordable for Tennessee ins.

Speaker 4 (48:32):
And I'm not.

Speaker 5 (48:36):
Gonna take the bait. I'm not going to take the bait.

Speaker 2 (48:37):
I'm not going to take the bait, she said. I mean,
she kind of did take the bait because she made
a video about it. But this is the woman who
said I hate Nashville saying I don't hate Nashville. Kind of,
We'll see. I wonder if this lady's gonna win. I
want to now see if she wins the election or not.
Did we find that the jeep wrangling?

Speaker 4 (48:54):
I am trying. It's all the I hate the city.

Speaker 2 (48:58):
Stuff about the song too. I don't think I.

Speaker 1 (49:03):
Believe that the song exists. I just want to hear it.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
See if you did you find her official account because
I guess she does the wrangling Wednesdays or.

Speaker 5 (49:12):
Okay, so it's hard to like off the bat in
her profile, like see which one could be because it's
the wrangling, Yeah, the wrangling part, because it's all her
political stuff.

Speaker 2 (49:24):
Just give me no take your time. We got, we
got the show. I want to hear the song. So,
but I still think it's gonna be to the tune
of its raining men. That's my guest. Could be wrong,
that's my guess.

Speaker 1 (49:36):
What you think?

Speaker 2 (49:37):
Do you think this woman's gonna win? Is this Sabrina
thinks it's refreshing? Do you think that this is is
a refreshing thing? And this woman's gonna win because she's
just telling the truth about this city. Every city has
problems and saying that you hate certain things about it
is a refreshing thing.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
You're gonna vote for the person? Or do you think
this dooms.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
Her campaign by saying like it's like being the person
running from mayor in New York sitting and going New
York City. I hate all of the traffic, I hate
the bars and restaurants and the tourists, and I hate
all the people that gather and throw pennies at the
World Trade Center. I hate all of you know, is

(50:14):
that going to be a winning argument?

Speaker 1 (50:17):
Let us know what you think.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
Send a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
Com Another story.

Speaker 2 (50:22):
Talk about this briefly yesterday, but I do find it
to be super interesting because now the Department of Transportation
has finally made a change. I didn't know this was
the case previously, but for the first time ever, American
car companies will be required to test vehicle safety with
women crash test dummies. They don't use a crash test

(50:48):
dummy currently that has any female anatomy boobs, for instance,
on it. They don't use that. And they're saying that, look,
this is we're letting down all the women who rely
on these safety features in these vehicles, and they're literally
going to stop at the Department of Transportation and have
everybody require the use of female crash test dummies. I'm

(51:10):
looking at one of the the examples here that is
showing might change. Well, it means the crash rating for
vehicles might change. It could means a lot of things.
Let's be real, if you have some percentage, non insignificant,
some non insignificant percentage of the populace in America is

(51:33):
women with large breasts. A woman, a large breasted woman
is going to have a different experience in a car
crash than a man would in that same accident. On average.
There are going to be different heights, They're going to
have different physical features, They're going to have different resistance

(51:54):
to those features based on the muscle profile of the
person involved. Like, it literally is different.

Speaker 5 (52:01):
I'm where you're sitting and how far the airbag goes.

Speaker 2 (52:05):
But I've always thought that comes into play. Maybe this
is weird, but I've always thought it must be kind
of weird if you have boobs. The seatbelt. You mentioned
the seatbelt line between Yeah, it's like that kind of
seems weirdos over as opposed to if you're if you're
a guy, you got the seatbelt flat across your chest,
it feels like it's holding you back a little bit better.

(52:26):
But if you have boobs, it changes everything. NBC saying,
the federal government is now requiring car companies to use
female crash test dummies, and they've got like little kid
versions and stuff. But yeah, there's They had a whole
thing at the Department of Transportation talking about how they
were going to change it up and now we'll know
how crashes are for women and men alike. Imagine that. Wow,

(52:49):
there we go. We'll see what you think about all
of this. Set us a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com.
When we return, we will we'll get into before too long,
we got the next episode on the horizon here. After
the next episode, we'll get into the ex boyfriend of
the cruise murder mystery woman Anna Kepner and his claims

(53:12):
which really are illuminating a lot of stuff with this
suspected step brother that may have been the person who
killed Danna Keepner on this cruise. Wait till you hear
his claims that's coming up in a little bit, and
I have a ton of clips to get through on
the show today. One thing I did want to share
with everybody. Oh no, accidentally close out on something, exact thing,

(53:34):
the exact thing I wanted to share with you. This, folks,
trashy all right, trashy move, trashy move and filming this
is even worse. A woman who's going viral right now.
Let me just play this for you because you need
to know. It's on all of the social media. This

(53:54):
woman went to Public's and filmed theirself. It's now getting
a lot of attention. Starting going conversation. She went the publics,
grabbed a box of donuts at the grocery store, had
all of her kids and her sit on the ground
and eat the donuts in the middle of the store
for a video.

Speaker 1 (54:13):
For some reason, well why, I.

Speaker 2 (54:15):
Don't know why, but this is what we do now.

Speaker 5 (54:19):
Is wanting today. So we came home to sit on
in front of.

Speaker 1 (54:24):
We're gonna enjoy our donuts.

Speaker 2 (54:25):
She said, she's got She tell her kids to open
the box of donuts. Oh my god, she fell on
the ground. Everybody, Yeah, yeah, you got it. Yeah, just
once I didn't figure. I listened to it earlier, and
I didn't figure she'd be cursing in front of the kids.

(54:46):
I don't know why I gave her that benefit of
the doubt, but she did. She said this as good
as she's eating the donuts with her entire family foot
full of kids. There's four kids here in the middle
of of one of the aisles and they're all pounding
down these donuts. So this has started to go viral

(55:07):
with people commenting on whether or not you should be
able to eat stuff in the middle of the store.
I think it's just to know a film people do
it all. If you do this all the time and
you take a thing of donuts and eat it with
your kids like that, you're stealing. The stealing is where
you're doing.

Speaker 4 (55:24):
Give the empty box and they scan it.

Speaker 1 (55:26):
Yeah, do you think this lady's scan in the empty box?

Speaker 4 (55:29):
We much you did not.

Speaker 2 (55:31):
Yes, Yes, you're sitting down on the floor with all
these kids. They're pounding the donuts and they're videotaping themselves.
That's stealing. That's what you're doing. Now you could go
through It's pretty sweet. I don't know if you guys
who have different grocery stores have this. Publics has a
thing where they put out like little things like in
the in the produce section for kids to take a

(55:52):
little orange or have like a little banana, and they're
free and they have little things about Yeah, they have
it in.

Speaker 1 (55:59):
The the produce section.

Speaker 2 (56:00):
They have like a little kid can get a piece
of like a what are the little oranges called? You
could play with no cuties, like a qutie looking way.
They usually have a little basket and in the is
it the same thing? Are you sure I would know
they's free for kids? And then I'm like, are they
gonna stop me if I try to eat that out?

Speaker 6 (56:22):
Oh my god.

Speaker 5 (56:23):
This is the classification of America. Back in our day,
it was free cookies at the bakery.

Speaker 1 (56:28):
Well, no, you could still do that. You can still.

Speaker 2 (56:31):
Yeah, if you go to the bakery, they'll give a
kid a cookie. Still, they'll give you one unless you're
being a greedy piggy.

Speaker 1 (56:37):
They'll tell you that.

Speaker 2 (56:40):
But you if you just pop out some food and
sit down on the floor of the publics and eat it,
you're stealing. You're right, You're a thief. That's what's happening here.
And while you're videotaping yourself and posting this to Twitter.
This is more proof that nobody has shame anymore. I guess.

Speaker 1 (56:55):
Let us know what you think. Send a dispatch over at.

Speaker 2 (56:57):
Thenewschunky dot com the news Junkie quick Break, let me
come back. We'll get geared up for the next episode
that we push this back because I've got the cruise
murder mystery story going on. I apologize. A judge just
got in big trouble and I gotta say I don't

(57:18):
usually do this. I want to come to the defense
of this judge. I want to say that I don't
think this was that big of a deal that the
judge should have lost their job. But I'll tell you
what they did in the courtroom, which is kind of funny.
That is coming up next in the news chunk Key.

(57:53):
I keep hearing on iHeart on all the Ihert stations.
They're overplaying the promo for Ed Helms from the Office has.

Speaker 1 (57:59):
A new podcas Ass, and everything seems fine on it.

Speaker 2 (58:02):
It's like, Okay, great, another celebrity has a podcast.

Speaker 1 (58:04):
Awesome, this is going to change the world. I'm sure
I like Ed Helms.

Speaker 2 (58:08):
By the way, I think Missing Nuclear bombs. I think
he's interesting and his podcast talking about snapoos like thirty
two missing nuclear bombs is fine. But the end of
that podcast promo, Listen to it next time you hear it.
He's listing off people's names who are going to appear,

(58:29):
and it sounds like it's like an audio version of
a demand letter where you've cut out the magazine letters
one by one. Clupper Tom Cruise will be up like
it's chopped up.

Speaker 4 (58:46):
And giving the technology that they could just ai they.

Speaker 2 (58:49):
Could they could ai am and say some of the guests,
we're going to have our Jordan instead of Jordan.

Speaker 17 (58:56):
They definitely chopped it out of like just him doing
the show intro for the podcast itself, so he's like
ye Angela, Jenna, Jordan Clipper and volumes.

Speaker 2 (59:07):
It's like it's pasted together. And there's why not just
have him I'm sure I heard paid him a whole
bunch of money. Why not just have him read a
sentence and then you can time.

Speaker 5 (59:17):
For that all right, as a part time editor who
has done what he could to make that promo.

Speaker 2 (59:25):
But the thing is, here's why it's not fair. At iHeart, Okay,
here's why it's not fair. They will have us read
all sorts of stuff. We'll read ads, will read test
ads to maybe get an ad campaign. We'll read promos,
We'll read anything that you can think of. Okay, I
haven't heard back yet, Josh, you know, reading reading, reading

(59:49):
promo and and and test ads. This week he was
doing some behind the scenes stuff. But potential ad camp
spec spots is what they call him for. Very strange
and different kind of ad campaign gonna be big. And
the interesting thing is we just read that stuff, but
the celebrities they don't even have the balls at iHeart
to be like, hey, Ed, this sounds super weird.

Speaker 1 (01:00:12):
Can you record this? Can we play that?

Speaker 6 (01:00:13):
I know?

Speaker 2 (01:00:14):
I'm like find it to be honest, Yeah, SNAFU promo,
We'll be able to find it somewhere. It's nothing against him.
I like Ed Helms.

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
I think he's funny. But it's just the end of that.

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
The way they cut together him announcing all the celebrities
are gonna be on this podcast was so weird. It
just doesn't make any sense at all. Josh, tell me
if you find that, so we can play this and
try to look in the lug. It's got to be
under promos because we are running it every ten minutes

(01:00:46):
or so.

Speaker 5 (01:00:47):
Do you remember that podcast that they spoke to the
robot of a serial killer.

Speaker 2 (01:00:54):
Yeah, they say I murdered my whole family, but.

Speaker 4 (01:00:58):
You won't find out onto.

Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
They didn't get an interview with the serial killer, so
they used AI to pretend to talk to the serial killer.

Speaker 1 (01:01:07):
And I go, maybe there's too any pot Maybe there's
too many of these things. I don't know. We might
have hit peak podcast. I think we're past peak podcast.

Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
Anyhow, let's talk real quick about this judge who I
want to come to the defensive. All right, I might
be missing something here, but otherwise I'm gonna be coming
to the defense of this judge named Matthew Thornhill. Matthew
Thornhill has been pushed to resign. Why, you ask, why
would they have this judge resign? That doesn't seem fair. Well,

(01:01:40):
there's some activity on the bench that they did not support.
And hang on, I'm gonna I'm gonna try to bring
this up for the folks on the stream. I'll put
it up on see it now in a bit too.
But here's the judge in question on the bench. This
is what got him in trouble. He wore it's hard
to say see, but he wore an Elvis wig inside

(01:02:04):
the courtroom and he was wearing this and he was operating,
and he's now been pushed to resign. This guy, the
guy who was a judge in Missouri, because he loves Elvis.
He loves Elvis, and he says Elvis was a super talent.

(01:02:25):
If I just had Elvis' hair, I'd be unstoppable. Now,
can I I like to enter into I'd like to
enter into evidence something very quickly. If I can't exhibit
A in this case, well, exhibit A would be the
guy in the wig. The photo should Exhibit B will
be that judges wearing fake hair is not unheard, all right.

(01:02:49):
They still do it, the barristers and the judges over
in England, they still wear the fake hair the way
even the women. The women do it. Where in the
United States, we used to do it too. You guys
used to wear these big fake wigs. This guy's wearing
an Elvis wig. So what is he getting his job done?

(01:03:10):
That's the question I have. Well, no he's not. Because
the Saint Charles County Circuit judge in Missouri who wore
an Elvis Presley wig and discuss politics, oh during court proceedings.

Speaker 1 (01:03:22):
Will resign, they said.

Speaker 2 (01:03:24):
After multiple violations of judicial ethics, the judge Matthew Thornhill
has agreed to a six month unpaid suspension, followed by
an eighteen month returned to the bench, then followed by
a non revocable resignation. What a weird way to get fired.
So you go six months, you don't get paid as
a judge, then you come back for eighteen months and

(01:03:45):
you return to the bench as a judge, and then
you say that you're resigning and you're not going to
run for reelection as a judge. You'll also be banned
from holding any future judicial offices in Missouri. According to documents,
the Missouri Commission on Retirement move on a discipline found
he engaged in several acts of misconduct. Oh boy. The
first misconduct category Elvis Presley related conduct. The commission found

(01:04:11):
several instances of Thornhill wearing an Elvis Presley wig in court,
making irrelevant references to Elvis during court proceedings. Buddy, can
just imagine that he's gonna be like, I forget me?

Speaker 4 (01:04:23):
Did you mention what he was proceeding over.

Speaker 1 (01:04:30):
It doesn't say what kind of cases they were.

Speaker 5 (01:04:32):
Imagine it's like a sexual assault case and.

Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
He's going, look, I know you're a hunk of hunk
of burn in love, but you can't this is illegal.
You know, you ain't know about around dog in the
ghetto or whatever whatever Elvis is saying to them inappropriate.

Speaker 4 (01:04:49):
Thank you James very much to be.

Speaker 2 (01:04:52):
Undermining the dignity of the judiciary, they said. Also political
activity for the bench, it says. The Commission found that
he mentioned in his political affiliation and preferred candidates to litigants,
witnesses and attorneys and asked them if they had a
Thornhill for Judge campaign sign. So he asked asked people
in his courtroom do you have a one of my
campaign signs?

Speaker 1 (01:05:13):
Which that's not great.

Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
Uh. The Commission found that he once hand delivered a
personal reference to a judge in a case involving termination
of parental rights. The violation includes rules prohibiting judges from
appearing as character witnesses.

Speaker 1 (01:05:26):
Blah blah blah.

Speaker 2 (01:05:28):
He admitted to all these allegations. He said he wore
the Elvis wigs and played the Elvis music to add
levity and relax people in his courtroom. What do you
do music? Yeah, yeah, he's playing some jams in there,
and a whole lot of shaking going on. Pa Little
Mother doing the whole Elvis stick. What we know, We

(01:05:50):
know people who do this. There's a lot of great
Elvis impersonators out there, but you can't do it in
the courtroom.

Speaker 5 (01:05:56):
You know exactly who you're talking about, and how inappropriate
and weird would it be unless requested that funeral proceedings
would be done in an Elvis impersonator.

Speaker 2 (01:06:08):
For the record, I'd like to request it. I don't
find it to be inappropriate.

Speaker 5 (01:06:12):
That's going to be in your testament, your will, Yeah,
when you're like hoping that maybe you have custody of
your children.

Speaker 1 (01:06:22):
I support it.

Speaker 4 (01:06:23):
Support what he's doing.

Speaker 2 (01:06:25):
Well, I don't support all of it, but I support
the Elvis wig. I support only the Elvis just wear
the wig and everything else.

Speaker 4 (01:06:32):
That's a Johnny Bravo wig, because.

Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
Oh, hang on, this is a different trial entirely Johnny
Bravo or Elvis.

Speaker 4 (01:06:41):
Now, Johnny Bravo's blonde technically, but it is very high.

Speaker 5 (01:06:45):
That's a very high wig.

Speaker 2 (01:06:46):
It's plastic, you know. Yeah, we're calling it a wig,
but just you know, it's like a plastic topper on
his head.

Speaker 1 (01:06:51):
It's much more a plastic topper.

Speaker 2 (01:06:54):
Should the judge be bounced out or do you defend
the Elvis Judge?

Speaker 1 (01:06:58):
Let us know your thoughts. A dispatch in the Neewschunkie.

Speaker 2 (01:07:02):
Dot com Joe Jilvis has lifted building. Judge Elvis is
in big trouble, but only only kind of is suspended.
Then he works for eighteen months and then get on
out of here, all right? When we come back the
next episode with Sabrina, what's coming up on the next episode?

Speaker 5 (01:07:18):
So glad you asked, what's coming on the next episode
episode the weekend may be missing an e, but he's
certainly setting the kords.

Speaker 4 (01:07:28):
It's a bird, it's a plane.

Speaker 5 (01:07:30):
It's a Superman comic book that's sold at auction for
a lot of freaking cryptonite. Plus Cardi b Cardi Baby
Cardi billical Cord has been made into something Cardi Bizarre abounds.
So much more coming up on the next episode, And
that is coming up next on the news Chunky.

Speaker 2 (01:08:04):
My favorite comment from chat so far that I have
to point out very quickly was they're starting to call
the woman who we talked about yesterday, who faked that
whole political attack with like the scars all over her
and Trump horror on her body and some other things,
and she had an accomplice and she faked this whole

(01:08:24):
political attack and the whole thing was a hoax. They're
calling her hussy Smolette now, which is pretty great.

Speaker 1 (01:08:31):
Actually, I hadn't heard that before. But the comment through
who sent that through?

Speaker 2 (01:08:36):
That is very very good. All right, right now, let's
get into it. Let's do the next episode. Because there's
a lot on TV. You can't possibly keep up with
all of it, even though you should, because what else
are you going to talk about?

Speaker 1 (01:08:48):
Well, straightening on an island. I'm starting on an island.

Speaker 2 (01:08:51):
Holy f Holy, It's time for the next episode with

perhaps your first island that you're being stranded on.

Speaker 2 (01:09:19):

Speaker 5 (01:09:20):
I don't know if he does island purchases, it's worth
asking him, or maybe you just ask him live on
the air. He does the Home Loans radio show every
single week and if you need a quicker answer, just
direct access to the man himself. Go to that mortgage
guy down dot com. Website is chuck full of information
for you. But you also have a way to contact
him with the instant messenger or email, or you can

Oh that's not that much, not at all.

Speaker 2 (01:11:39):
I mean that's basically a freebie.

Speaker 4 (01:11:41):
You're paying for a new I phone.

Speaker 2 (01:11:43):
You might, you might, you might start bringing people into
your city who want to expose themselves. Sure, They'll just
see it as like a tax i can whip out
my penis and then give you a handful of bucks
and on with my day.

Just for the record, I don't want to be sued
Billy Joe Armstrong. He's just talking about it. I said,
Billy Joe, you said Billy Joel. Billy Joel did not
expose himself just I.

Speaker 5 (01:13:09):
Said, Joe, I can have to say it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:29):
Oh is that right?

Speaker 1 (01:14:30):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:14:30):
Yeah, that's correct. We're doing the thing where I'm the
game show host, but I know nothing about the answers

Lex Luthor? That sounds ritten. I believe in that.

Speaker 4 (01:14:54):
That's all I got.

Speaker 2 (01:14:55):
Maybe he got all of it.

Speaker 5 (01:14:56):
Previous record holder was Action Comics Number one from nineteen
thirty eight, which sold for six million in twenty twenty four,
and the comic featured the very first appearance of Superman
before he had his own comic Wow, also often recognized
as the beginning of the superhero genre. And here we
are in twenty twenty five where we see that with

(01:15:17):
a lot more explosions.

Speaker 4 (01:15:18):
Thank you, James Gunn, You're welcome.

Speaker 2 (01:15:21):
Was that right? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:15:22):
Look at me on fire, I know all the superhero things,
and Billy Joe Armstrong and finally this gal right.

Speaker 2 (01:15:29):
Here Cardi b is right.

Speaker 1 (01:15:34):
Sorry in the stallion, I didn't get it Anyways.

Speaker 5 (01:15:38):
Gardaby had a baby, and now we know what she
did with the umbilical cordon.

Speaker 2 (01:15:45):
I don't want to know.

Speaker 5 (01:15:46):
I have to tell you.

Speaker 4 (01:15:49):
I can just leave it a mystery.

Speaker 2 (01:15:50):
If you'd like, no, go ahead, I mean we need
to know.

Speaker 5 (01:15:52):
Now she got the umbilical cord. She paid a company
called Mommy May to make the umbilical cord into a
heart shape heap, say, dipped in gold chrome.

Speaker 2 (01:16:03):
Gross. Some people have too much money.

Speaker 5 (01:16:07):
A lot of people and that have those moneies you
speak of, Josh like Magan Fox, Vanessa Hudgens, Christy Tiagan,
Ashley Simpson of all used Mommy Made services. And if
you're wondering, wait, I can't afford to dip my umbilical
cord into gold.

Speaker 2 (01:16:23):
What can I do?

Speaker 5 (01:16:24):
Here are the options because I googled it and now
you have to know. You can make it into jewelry,
unique jewelry with that abilical cord, like a necklace or rings,
an ornament. Have you considered a dried cord on your
Christmas tree?

Speaker 2 (01:16:37):
It could be like the hook. It could be the
hook for the ornament to get.

Speaker 5 (01:16:40):
It on a heart, or like an at sign. I
guess framed art you put it in a frame you want.
How about taking that umbilical cord and putting in a
stuffed animal or just blowing into it and making a
balloon animal.

Speaker 1 (01:16:58):
Okay, you could do that.

Speaker 4 (01:17:00):
Keepsake boxes.

Speaker 5 (01:17:01):
We have cultural pouches from the Plains Indian cultures. It's
dried and sewn into a pouch in the shape of
a turtle or lizard. Roast symbolic items. A necklace made
from the umbilical cord can be worn as a symbol
of connection to a child and.

Speaker 4 (01:17:16):
Really embarrass them when they're a teenagel And.

Speaker 5 (01:17:20):
If not, you can donate that umbilical cord to a
blood bank where the stem cells can be used to create.

Speaker 2 (01:17:27):
Babies with four arms.

Speaker 5 (01:17:31):
On the boob tube, whatever you want to watch, Maybe

at Sabrina Ambromost importantly say with me America smoke weed.

Speaker 2 (01:18:13):
Thank you, Sabrina. I was thinking it was maybe Cardi
B when you were talking about her, but it wasn't.
Did you see the thing Nicki Minaj was at this
week where there was there was there was like a
United States United Nations thing about the killing of Christians
in Nigeria, And they're like, now to speak on this,

(01:18:36):
ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 1 (01:18:37):
Nicki Minaj and nick.

Speaker 2 (01:18:41):
She starts, she starts speaking, and by the way, how
weird is this this setup that they gave her. It's
Nicki Minaj in a room with nobody else and there's
like empty chairs and everything.

Speaker 1 (01:18:51):
Look at look at this Josh Show.

Speaker 6 (01:18:53):
This is her.

Speaker 18 (01:18:56):
I would like to thank President Trump fortizing this issue
and for his leadership it's the given stage and calling
for urgent action to defend Christians in Nigeria, to combat
extremism and to bring a stop to violence against those
who simply want to exercise their natural right to freedom

(01:19:16):
of religion or belief.

Speaker 1 (01:19:18):
Yeah, I mean, and by the way, that all sounds bad.

Speaker 2 (01:19:20):
I don't want Christians getting killed in Nigeria. I don't
want that. I don't support that. It's just I didn't
expect it. I didn't expect her to be up there,
and there she will.

Speaker 4 (01:19:30):
I don't think anyone that was invited expected her.

Speaker 2 (01:19:34):
Maybe not. Somebody invented something this week based on one
of the biggest stories of the week. They invented something.
I'll share that invention with you, and when we come back,
it's time to get into more on the Creuse murder mystery.
The step brother who's now a suspect. We're now hearing
some pretty insane accusations against him. We'll hear that together.

(01:19:58):
It's coming up next, and then Huge Chunky. Join us

if you want to add to something, if you want

we get into this big bombshell in the cruise murder
mystery story, I wanted to tell you, one of the
best things I've seen this week was the work that

(01:20:44):
people put into this stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:20:46):
It's kind of crazy to me.

Speaker 2 (01:20:47):
Somebody put together a website where it's exactly like Gmail
in every way except it's Jeffrey Epstein's emails. You log in, Hi,
jeff it says hi Jeffrey as you log in, and
then it's all of the emails. Yeah, yeah, it's the

(01:21:11):
actual Epstein emails, and then like the contact people, and
it shows like incoming and outgoing emails from Epstein in
this site that somebody has built, which is pretty clever.

Speaker 1 (01:21:23):
Honestly, it's it's a jmail.

Speaker 2 (01:21:26):
Dot world just in case you want to check it
out jail dot World. Earlier, when I tried to go,
it was slammed. Okay, now I'm in.

Speaker 1 (01:21:34):
I'm in. It looks it's exactly like Gmail in every way.

Speaker 5 (01:21:38):
What are the tabs to the left like under sent.

Speaker 2 (01:21:42):
The tabs are all contacts. And then the people like
Michael Wolf, Larry Summers, the guy who just resigned from
Harvard after telling all the kids that you know, hey,
we're going to push through this and I'm not going
to step down. This is important job. Steve Bannon, ken Starr,
Glaine Maxwell. So like if I clicked on Glaine Maxwell,

(01:22:03):
it would show just link in Gmail all of the emails.

Speaker 1 (01:22:07):
From this person.

Speaker 2 (01:22:09):
Really well done. It functions exactly like Gmail.

Speaker 4 (01:22:13):
Now go to the top right, Are those going to
open up? What the account?

Speaker 16 (01:22:19):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:22:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:22:20):
It just then does he have a Google Drive?

Speaker 2 (01:22:23):
Some of them don't. It doesn't add anything, but just
for shure it does if a lot of it does function.

Speaker 1 (01:22:30):
Can I search? Can I just search all? Search for Clinton?

Speaker 2 (01:22:33):
Search for Clinton and it brings up four hundred and
seventy one results. Search for Trump and it brings up
a thousand results. You search for like all these different things.
It's pretty cool. Check it out if you wanted to
see what was going on there jmail dot world. Somebody
turned all the Epstein emails into a Gmail account. There

(01:22:53):
you go, some clever people out there. But to the
thing you've been asking for, the big update today. If
you guys haven't been paying attention, I'll get you caught up.
I got like a little script that just gets you
up to speed on what's happening. There was an eighteen
year old girl woman eighteen year old who was on
this carnival cruise ship as she's at sea. They left

(01:23:17):
and they left Tampa and we're going to Mexico. They
were just on their way back to Tampa from Mexico.
She is found debt and at first people speculate that
you jump overboard? Was it a drug overdose? Here are
the details we know now. Anna Kepner is the eighteen
year old. She was on this cruise with a bunch
of her family members, including some of her step family.

(01:23:39):
She was in a room on the Carnival cruise ship
with her step brother and her brother, her biological brother
as well.

Speaker 1 (01:23:46):
They were all staying in a room together.

Speaker 2 (01:23:48):
Lots of allegations and many many people just kind of fueling.

Speaker 1 (01:23:53):
The fire of speculation on this.

Speaker 2 (01:23:56):
But now the family is suggesting that the step brother
might be chars with her murder, and that perhaps she
was found wrapped up in blankets with life preservers and
stuffed under the bed, and then her brother accidentally slept
on the bed, not knowing his dead sister was underneath him.

Speaker 1 (01:24:13):
The step brother is to be arrested.

Speaker 2 (01:24:15):
Now we're hearing from Anna Koepnik, the eighteen year old
who died or was murdered on this cruise.

Speaker 1 (01:24:21):
Ship.

Speaker 2 (01:24:21):
Here is her ex boyfriend. All of the press had
gathered outside of his house. I mean a lot of
press there talking to this guy who used to date
the eighteen year old Anna Keepner who died.

Speaker 11 (01:24:34):
And he's an ex relationship.

Speaker 2 (01:24:36):
She's an ex relationship?

Speaker 14 (01:24:38):
How many times? Back down?

Speaker 2 (01:24:40):
I want to take a second.

Speaker 11 (01:24:41):
Your name is Josh too, let's go your last ningbe
all right?

Speaker 2 (01:24:45):
And how are you fifteen? And how did you meet
Adam through a.

Speaker 11 (01:24:49):
Past relationship last year?

Speaker 2 (01:24:51):
So he is he's fifty? No, no, I think it
sounded like you said that, but he's not. He's her age,
I believe. Hold on, I don't know why you said
that there.

Speaker 1 (01:25:02):
I want to take the second.

Speaker 2 (01:25:02):
Your name is Josh too. Let's spell your last name edie?

Speaker 6 (01:25:06):
All right?

Speaker 2 (01:25:06):
And how are you fifteen? And how did you we
did say fifteen?

Speaker 11 (01:25:10):
There for a past relationship last year?

Speaker 2 (01:25:13):
And how did you actually meet the parents?

Speaker 6 (01:25:15):
School?

Speaker 4 (01:25:16):
Okay, so when she was seventeen she was a yeah,
you know.

Speaker 2 (01:25:21):
I met her at school.

Speaker 1 (01:25:23):
And the circumstances behind her death you find them to
be suspicious?

Speaker 2 (01:25:26):
And did if so? Tell me why?

Speaker 1 (01:25:29):
Of course you find them to be suspicious?

Speaker 2 (01:25:32):
Yeah, totally normal man, everybody ends up wrapped up in
a sheet underneath the bed on the cruise ship.

Speaker 4 (01:25:38):
And that's because how did he get this all?

Speaker 2 (01:25:42):
So the scheduler, the father of the X, was being
asked a lot of questions because of some social media posts.
And then when they went to their house, there was
a media mob and all of them were asking questions.
They said, let's get the person who used to date
Anna Keepner out here.

Speaker 11 (01:25:57):
It was suspicious because I knew that the brother did it, and.

Speaker 2 (01:26:02):
Yeah, how do you know?

Speaker 11 (01:26:03):
How do you know that because of the past things
that happened with him, Like I was saying, which way,
like about the face time and stuff, what's the face time?
When I was on face some of her and.

Speaker 2 (01:26:18):
She was laying down and.

Speaker 11 (01:26:19):
The brother tried to go on top of her.

Speaker 2 (01:26:22):
I was on FaceTime with her, He sang, of the
woman who was killed on this cruise ship. I was
on FaceTime with her and she was laying down and
her brother kept trying to lay on top of her.
He sang, it was weird. And I guess when her
stepbrother was trying to lay on top of her, and
this is something like he had done. He was creepy
about some things. Then I guess he confronted him over

(01:26:42):
the phone and you saw that, yeah, and.

Speaker 11 (01:26:48):
I sure, the hell are you doing in the room?

Speaker 2 (01:26:50):
You know?

Speaker 11 (01:26:51):
Then he got scared and like ran away, and I
heard us with steps like running through the house.

Speaker 2 (01:26:56):
You know, because he got caught. So when you learned
the awesome all right, this is another reporter. It's hard
to hear, but I'll try to bring to you whatever
I can pull up on this.

Speaker 11 (01:27:06):
I ran away, he ran away. It was kind of crazy,
she passed away.

Speaker 16 (01:27:13):
How did you feel?

Speaker 3 (01:27:14):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:27:16):
I felt? Oh yeah, wait when you the reporter said,
when you heard that she passed away? How did you feel?
Another obvious question. Obviously didn't feel good about that his
ex girlfriend that died was murdered on this cruise ship.
Anna Keptner is dad, so that's what they're asking him.

Speaker 11 (01:27:32):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:27:32):
How did you feel when you found out she died?

Speaker 11 (01:27:36):
Very sad, you know, because that was my first love.

Speaker 6 (01:27:40):
She was my first love that ever happened to me.

Speaker 11 (01:27:42):
And I'd even walk through her work to see her,
you know, for like five ten minutes.

Speaker 16 (01:27:47):
Did you talk with her before her do?

Speaker 6 (01:27:50):
Like three weeks before it?

Speaker 11 (01:27:51):
Yes? Man, I was actually supposed to go on the
cruise that she went off.

Speaker 1 (01:27:55):
Oh, he was supposed to be on the cruise.

Speaker 2 (01:27:59):
That was weird. Yeah, he was supposed to be on
the cruise in question, he's saying now, but didn't end
up on it with them. Let's see what else. The
ex boyfriend of Anna Kepner says, But.

Speaker 8 (01:28:12):
We broke up before.

Speaker 11 (01:28:15):
We split up, like six.

Speaker 16 (01:28:16):
Months ago, six months and everyone said she's just a
bright light. So many people were in bright colors today.

Speaker 5 (01:28:22):
How would you describe the.

Speaker 2 (01:28:24):
Palmer she was?

Speaker 11 (01:28:25):
She was a great person. She definitely knew how to
throw on her outfit.

Speaker 14 (01:28:31):
What she was great.

Speaker 1 (01:28:33):
She knew how to throw on her outfit.

Speaker 11 (01:28:34):
She knew how to.

Speaker 2 (01:28:35):
Put on colors.

Speaker 11 (01:28:36):
It wasn't like a basic outfit.

Speaker 2 (01:28:39):
I think this was kind of the reason they're mentioning
this was because at her memorial. I think they all
like dressed up and stuff, because yeah, she puts the
sigh into her outfits.

Speaker 5 (01:28:48):
Maybe the reporter's asking about her outfits.

Speaker 2 (01:28:51):
I'm nervous.

Speaker 1 (01:28:52):
Yeah, he doesn't know what's going on.

Speaker 2 (01:28:54):
I know that he's the ex and his family is
at the center of a lot of this, and his
family's like, we were not this stepbrother. Guy is creepy,
he's weird, he had an infatuation with Anna Keepner, his
own stepsis.

Speaker 4 (01:29:08):
It's the same damn room. That's nuts to me.

Speaker 2 (01:29:11):
But the family, there are lots of question marks in
that family circle around everything that happened here, A lot
of questions about why these people were sleeping together. There's
no way that the family wasn't aware that there was
some of this stuff going on. If the stepbrother was
being creepy with her before this, there's no way that

(01:29:33):
they didn't know that she was scared of him because
he carried a knife around all the time.

Speaker 1 (01:29:39):
There's no way that we weren't aware of all of
this stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:29:42):
But let's see if they answer anything else of substance,
to see if he gets asking any other good questions.

Speaker 11 (01:29:49):
I think that he should get thrown in jail for
as long as possible.

Speaker 4 (01:29:55):
Great job and answer.

Speaker 2 (01:29:57):
And when did you move into the house? I have
no idea a year or two? Uh, maybe like a
year ago? I think so.

Speaker 6 (01:30:06):
Yeah, I see a lot of justice.

Speaker 1 (01:30:09):
And she ever complained about his behavior before?

Speaker 2 (01:30:11):
Yes, yes, sir, what does she complain about?

Speaker 11 (01:30:14):
She complained about and being uncomfortable, her being uncomfortable around him. Uh,
because of the fact that he tried to go on
top of her and the dead and because of that,
she tried to go and stay and I at her
friend's house and to dodge the.

Speaker 2 (01:30:33):
Stand at her house once. Yes, she bring that.

Speaker 11 (01:30:39):
It happened one time.

Speaker 2 (01:30:41):
Three am.

Speaker 4 (01:30:43):
To him already.

Speaker 2 (01:30:45):
I don't know if they.

Speaker 4 (01:30:47):
Very much. I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:30:49):
Screw up is not the industry term, but if their
investigation is ongoing and they haven't talked to him yet,
this is going to mess.

Speaker 2 (01:30:56):
Up the case. It's all weird because he's just out
in front of his house and there's all these reporters
just shoving like phones and stuff in front of his.

Speaker 5 (01:31:02):
Face, and a lot of them are like walking him
through what he's going to say. And did you feel uncomfortable?

Speaker 2 (01:31:08):
Yeah? I felt uncomfortable. Yeah, well it was weird.

Speaker 3 (01:31:10):
Was he weird?

Speaker 2 (01:31:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:31:12):
But then again, you know, what do you expect from
a fifteen year old?

Speaker 4 (01:31:14):
That is probably very I.

Speaker 2 (01:31:16):
Think I think it's relevant if she thought, if her
ex boyfriend is saying that she thought he was creepy,
she was creeped out by this guy. If that's the case,
if there's truth to what he's saying, then it does
make some very important questions even more important. If this
was happening, why why would the family ever bunk them together?

(01:31:37):
That's absolutely crazy to me. If that's what happened there,
And then what else was going on in this situation
between those two We still don't even know the manner
of death, for God's sake, the medical examiner hasn't even
released that information yet.

Speaker 5 (01:31:54):
So any press conference at all, any word from law enforcement, no,
that's because it can't be. It's not any state or
local right as the BFBI because of the international waters.

Speaker 2 (01:32:07):
The FBI, because of the fact that it was a cruise.
They have said, we don't do like intermediate press conference
or we don't do like you know, press conference is
giving you updates about our investigation. We're just investigating. And
that has led to this like huge information vacuum, and
so all the family members no more than anybody else.

Speaker 1 (01:32:30):
And finally they're like, they're letting some of this out on.

Speaker 5 (01:32:33):
The record, but Internet salutes unless you know, of course,
would like to trust the FBI.

Speaker 4 (01:32:38):
But when it comes to a core case, and.

Speaker 5 (01:32:42):
There's a lot of stuff that will be admissible if
we still have just reporters getting the scoop or someone
making a TikTok saying and giving information that could screw
some stuff up.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
No, no, no, this way, it wouldn't make evidence inadmissible
just because somebody's doing an interview with the press or whatever.
I mean, I can't think of a circumstance with that
would happen. Maybe there is one, but I can't think
of a circumstance with that would be the case. Mostly,
it's just like if the FBI or even her family
or something would to be seeing all this happen, would

(01:33:14):
throw together a press conference and just get the truth
out there. It would make it so we don't have
to do all this stuff, Like we don't need to
go after this fifteen year old X and show a
bunch of microphones in his face because we can get
some actual.

Speaker 1 (01:33:26):
Information on what's happening here.

Speaker 2 (01:33:28):
But like another headline, he's infatuated stepbrother of Cruz victim
Anna Kepner was obsessed with the cheerleader and had committed
creepy act as she laid in bed. So is all
this for nothing?

Speaker 11 (01:33:39):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (01:33:40):
Like? Is it just like one little joke where he
jumped on her and it's being blown out of proportion
or was it really an ongoing creepy thing. We'll find out.
We'll keep an eye on this story, as you might imagine. Okay,
let's see what else. We have a bunch of people
emailing the show. Let's go to the crash Test dummy emails.
Steve says, Hey junkies, about the female crash Chest dummies.

(01:34:02):
I just can't wait to hear their version of thanks
and Happy Friday, Steve, Steve, no one is going to
get that reference, but I understand what you're talking about.

Speaker 5 (01:34:14):
They consider one hit wonder.

Speaker 2 (01:34:15):
Yeah bombs, they're all the momb Yeah. That was a
catchy song that came out for five seconds, kids, and
then the band, the Crash Test Dummies behind it just disappeared,
just like that. Mark Emails, Tips of the News Joky
dot Com. Hi, everybody, I saw the story about the
crash Test dummies as well. It was reported that not

(01:34:37):
only are they gonna have knee shorter beasts. All right,
I'm I'm guessing that that's supposed to say, not only
are they gonna have breasts, but also a cell phone
in one hand. Get this, man, Not only are they
going to have breasts, but a cell phone in one hand,
a mascara brush in the other, and their knees steering.

(01:34:59):
The call mark from you know how girls be? Huh,
you know how girls be? Let's see uh mark.

Speaker 4 (01:35:09):
Let's do another joke today. I would love to hear
some of your more material.

Speaker 2 (01:35:14):
Better than this one. I'll read this one as is,
just so you get it raw. I saw the story
about the crash test dummies this morning. It was reported
that not only are they going to have knee shooter beasts,
but a cell phone in one hand, mascara brush in
the other, and their new steering car.

Speaker 1 (01:35:32):
Have a great weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:35:38):
You're gonna scare away all the dispatchers.

Speaker 14 (01:35:46):
Crying.

Speaker 1 (01:35:47):
Now, oh hobby, let's work.

Speaker 2 (01:35:52):
In one more. Let's do one more.

Speaker 1 (01:35:54):
Let's do a dispatch.

Speaker 11 (01:35:55):
Here.

Speaker 1 (01:35:56):
Here is Oky after birth the dispatch.

Speaker 2 (01:36:00):
What do you got to say?

Speaker 14 (01:36:01):
All right, guys, I have to ask you, have you
guys heard this new diabolical ads that I heard is
playing where they literally take your name from your email
or from whatever account you have with iHeart and they
insert your name into specific like ads, so like the
one that I keep hearing is this dui ad, and

(01:36:23):
they keep referencing my name.

Speaker 2 (01:36:26):
He says, he's not. His name is not super common. No, Okay,
after birth is a rare name.

Speaker 1 (01:36:30):
I would think.

Speaker 2 (01:36:30):
Yeah, So if they're saying that it's a lot, let's
imagine like a pino after birth. This person says, So,
it's like you just had a drink and you're getting
pulled over in your car and you're drinking and driving
and they're specifically mentioning you in the ad by your name.

Speaker 1 (01:36:45):
It's freaking wild. Have you guys heard this?

Speaker 5 (01:36:47):
I feel like we've heard the ad and it just
happens to mention that, okay, after birth name.

Speaker 2 (01:36:52):
You're going to jail oki after birth. I've not heard this,
but if they're using AI, that's news to me. Because
our company keeps sending out this thing.

Speaker 1 (01:37:02):
Let me see what you'll find this?

Speaker 2 (01:37:04):
Did you see this?

Speaker 1 (01:37:05):
So they've been sending.

Speaker 2 (01:37:06):
Around a thing at the company where they're like, gonna
guarantee that you're getting humans on the stations you're listening to,
guaranteed human branding.

Speaker 1 (01:37:16):
So who cares?

Speaker 2 (01:37:19):
It says, why?

Speaker 6 (01:37:20):
Why? Why?

Speaker 2 (01:37:21):
What are you doing? Why?

Speaker 4 (01:37:22):
Why why guarantee humans the.

Speaker 2 (01:37:26):
Moment the podcast we publish are guaranteed human this is
what they're saying internally at the company, say an iHeartRadio station,
guaranteed human. You'll start hearing that on these stations, and
they're bragging about it. So if they're not using humans
in those ads, I would think that that looks bad.
Maybe it's another company though, could be a company using

(01:37:47):
an AI.

Speaker 5 (01:37:48):
It's very curious because there's like three major labels that
just signed on AI musicians. That was a story that
I was not able to get to during the next episode.
So at some point they will make the top.

Speaker 2 (01:37:59):
Forty Well they not, they already have.

Speaker 5 (01:38:02):
We will choose not to play it at all. No
one can hear the.

Speaker 2 (01:38:05):
AI well when it says guaranteed human. I don't know
if they're only talking about the radio station employees or
all of the people in the songs that they're playing,
because that would be harder. Like you said, I think
in the on the country charts right now, there's an
AI person breaking rust, breaking rust so angered by that?

Speaker 15 (01:38:31):
Is it bad?

Speaker 17 (01:38:32):
No, it's not like awful, But why why are we
allowing an AI song to be top of the Billboard chart.

Speaker 3 (01:38:40):
That much?

Speaker 2 (01:38:41):
I hate this.

Speaker 5 (01:38:42):
I did hear Chop Suey and the Blues version of
it top It's good. It was beautiful, and I was
very upset it was not a real artist.

Speaker 2 (01:38:53):
No, I know that that's been an issue. But we
are guaranteeing humans in our pot rights. We are guaranteed
humans good. So we're gonna take a quick break. When
we come back, we'll see what's happening where you are.
We'll get to more of your feedback here on the show.
And something that's restored my faith in humanity for the
first time in a long time.

Speaker 6 (01:39:12):
What is it?

Speaker 2 (01:39:13):
Wait to you hear this.

Speaker 1 (01:39:14):
It's coming up next and the news Junkie. You can't always.

Speaker 2 (01:39:34):
Trust people in chat, but somebody say over in chat
that the ex boyfriend Novanna Keepner went on Facebook afterwards
and says he accidentally said he was fifteen when he's
seventeen because he was nervous. He's just like nervous that
all the cameras were around him and he's not really fifteen,
but he like accidentally said that in a moment.

Speaker 1 (01:39:54):
Yeah, I mean, I like, if I was.

Speaker 2 (01:39:56):
A teenager and all this stuff was happening around me
and somebody died, and probably, yeah, I would probably be overwhelmed.

Speaker 1 (01:40:02):
I would think at some point.

Speaker 2 (01:40:04):
But let's get into this real quick. We had a
couple of things in a second. The story that is
reaffirmed my faith in humanity. Thank god, my faith is back.
But first, we now have a winner in the Miss
Universe pageant, the most controversial, sloppy drama filled. It was
a catastrophe, this Miss Universe pageant. All right, But Miss

(01:40:27):
Mexico after being bullied by that one guy and said
she was done, Miss Mexico is the winner of the
Miss Universe. Hey, she did it, which is nonsense. It
is nonsense. She Miss Mexico. She never should have won,
never should have won. I'm gonna present to you evidence
on why Miss Norway should have won. This for those

(01:40:50):
of you watching, is Miss Norway's outfit that you are
If you can't tell, she's dressed up as a fish.
She looks like the TV news fish from SpongeBob.

Speaker 1 (01:41:01):
She's dressed up as a fish in.

Speaker 5 (01:41:03):
That fermented fish, in that can we talked about earlier.

Speaker 2 (01:41:05):
This possibly drive, not sure if related, but she's dressed
up as a fish. How did this woman from Norway
not win? Norway? She's a she's like a salmon. And
then when they introduce her. She turns and opens up

(01:41:26):
the fish costume and reveals so weird herself. And how
does that win?

Speaker 16 (01:41:32):
Do you say?

Speaker 5 (01:41:33):
I can email her and borrow that for Halloween next year?

Speaker 2 (01:41:36):
Possibly? What else are you going to use this for anymore?
It's beautiful foreplay. This is a fish costume that I
think should have given Miss Norway the wind. Unfortunately, this
is not a fair world. And Miss Mexico was the winner,
crowned twenty twenty five Miss Universe after somebody called her

(01:41:59):
dumb and then they said that they were fighting back
against this Cali.

Speaker 1 (01:42:05):
Yeah, he told her to shut.

Speaker 2 (01:42:06):
Up and do it.

Speaker 1 (01:42:07):
You're told basically.

Speaker 2 (01:42:08):
And then what was the other what was the controversy
yesterday about this? There's another one too. I forgot there's
there's a several mess The woman fell off the stage. Yeah,
and they just kept rolling, you know, Miss Jamaica. I
believe Miss Jamaica is on the stage at Miss Universe.
She falls, she's walking and accidentally walks off the stage
and falls, and they just keep going.

Speaker 1 (01:42:31):
They just keep sending out girls, They just keep doing
all this stuff.

Speaker 5 (01:42:33):
What portion of Miss Universe. It's been a minute since
I've watched the pageant. Did the fish suit come into play?

Speaker 1 (01:42:42):
I think I don't know if that was formalware.

Speaker 2 (01:42:46):
Miss Norway.

Speaker 5 (01:42:49):
If they have a new costume portion of it, then
I'm I will watch next year.

Speaker 2 (01:42:54):
It says national costume, just represent their country. I guess,
so I love it. The other one, where's Miss Mexico. Uh,
maybe maybe she had one too, if I could miss
Miss Mexic Mexican Mexico. Excuse me, Miss mess Mexico. Can't

(01:43:15):
get the word out right. Tortilla? Oh wow?

Speaker 15 (01:43:18):
Is hers?

Speaker 6 (01:43:19):
Wow?

Speaker 1 (01:43:22):
Mega elaborate costumes.

Speaker 5 (01:43:25):
So yeah, it's the fish one is the most boring one.
I just saw the Business Insider.

Speaker 2 (01:43:35):
Oh, let me see elaborate. So these are their national costumes.
Oh my god, this looks like Hunger Games for real.
That's cool.

Speaker 1 (01:43:43):
This woman's dress is like all flames and oh man.

Speaker 2 (01:43:48):
I'll put this is what I'll put up on on
See it now so you can see all of them,
including the woman who was dressed up as.

Speaker 4 (01:43:53):
One is the most boring.

Speaker 2 (01:43:55):
They're so elaborate. They really are super impressive.

Speaker 6 (01:44:00):
This out.

Speaker 2 (01:44:02):
This is Miss Bulgaria. Theres a lot of flower based ones.
This is a person with a manta ray above them,
and I don't know where that one was from. Miss Chill. Yeah,
these are incredible. All right, I'll put this up over
on see it now in just a moment. Here something

(01:44:23):
to behold. Very very impressive and I did not know
that they did this, but I guess they do. Let
me get a screen shot here. The fish was very impressive.
And the way she unveiled herself it was like, yeah,
I'm looking at here. Next thing, you know, boom, and
the big reveal is it's Miss Norway under that fish.

(01:44:43):
So all right, let me put this up over on
see it now, take a look.

Speaker 17 (01:44:48):
I like the implication that no one knew who was
inside the fish until she opened it.

Speaker 1 (01:44:52):
No, no, and then all of a sudden it was like,
oh my god, that's who it is, Miss.

Speaker 2 (01:44:58):
Universe costs dooms is what I'm going to put there.

Speaker 6 (01:45:01):
It is.

Speaker 2 (01:45:01):
It's up on see it now. Go take a peek.
Go to the newsjunkie dot com and it's right there
for your friend.

Speaker 6 (01:45:07):
Just like that.

Speaker 2 (01:45:08):
There it is.

Speaker 1 (01:45:09):
All right, we're gonna take quick break.

Speaker 2 (01:45:10):
When we come back, we will do jury duty, some
big big bangers in jury duty today. Oh I did
say I'd get to the story that's restored my faith
in humanity.

Speaker 6 (01:45:20):
Yeah, I can do it.

Speaker 1 (01:45:20):
I can do it real quick. I'll do it really
quickly here, just so we get this up.

Speaker 2 (01:45:26):
This is the first polling data that I thought was
good information, good news for us in twenty twenty five.
And Gallup, which is a respected national polling out lob
says Americans show consensus. Imagine that Americans agree, No, Americans
agree on many democracy related matters.

Speaker 1 (01:45:50):
This pole sets.

Speaker 2 (01:45:51):
So I've told you many many, many, many many times
that basically we have like ten percent of the left
which is melted brain dummies, ten percent of the right
which has melted braid dummies. These are your super political
people that try to make everything about politics, and then
big chunks of the middle of this country are just
the normies who get all this forced on them. So

(01:46:12):
they ask questions like do you believe that political leaders
should compromise.

Speaker 1 (01:46:17):
And make deals with the other party to get things done?

Speaker 2 (01:46:20):
Eighty percent of people said yes, leaving what basically that
ten and ten to say no compromise. When they ask people,
is it okay for people to use violence to achieve
a political goal, eighty three percent of people said no.
My faith in humanity is being restored cowards Now sixteen

(01:46:42):
percent say it's okay for people to use violence, as
those are a problematic people.

Speaker 1 (01:46:47):
Yeah, those are a problematic people on the fringes.

Speaker 2 (01:46:51):
Wealthy individuals and businesses should be limited in how much
they can advance political candidates or causes they support. Eighty
three percent agreed with that. Another one love to see
this shows you how small the group of crazies is.
Everybody as more and more of you tell me, hey, Sean,
keep highlighting the fake news stuff that helps out.

Speaker 1 (01:47:11):
There's so much of that.

Speaker 2 (01:47:12):
You got to combat this. And if more of you
want this, I'll put together something daily or weekly that
highlights this. But when they ask, are there facts and opinions,
and eighty eight percent of people said, there are a facts,
and then there are opinions. And the other ten percent
said facts are just opinions and points of view, basically

(01:47:32):
saying there's no such thing as the truth.

Speaker 1 (01:47:34):
There's like my truth and my worldview and all of
that stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:47:38):
There are no facts. Eighty eight percent of people said, yes,
there are facts. There are facts in this world of
une restored my faith and humanity. I love to see it.
I love to see the normies out there agreeing on
these obvious things that everybody should agree on.

Speaker 1 (01:47:55):
And it shows you once more.

Speaker 2 (01:47:57):
That we are influenced by these squeaky, these annoying fringe
people out on the sides of politics. The political people
are not making my world better today, I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:48:08):
Think, but the real quick and make your world a
little bit better right now.

Speaker 1 (01:48:13):
I don't know if I want to see this.

Speaker 2 (01:48:16):
Costume. No, this is USA USA. Why don't they advertise
this more? This is literally the best part of miss Universe.

Speaker 4 (01:48:29):
This has to be new. I have never competition.

Speaker 1 (01:48:33):
This is a Miss America.

Speaker 2 (01:48:34):
It says Virgin Island behind them, but maybe that's like
from the previous persons. Miss USA.

Speaker 1 (01:48:38):
Okay, Miss USA twenty twenty five.

Speaker 3 (01:48:40):
And goddamn eagle a massive, beautiful eagle outfit and then
a huge like eagle shield that she puts up and
covers her face.

Speaker 5 (01:48:52):
So good, Eagles, it's a cartoon egle face.

Speaker 1 (01:48:54):
Come on, I love it. No, but this is what
she's holding. It's so good. It's so good.

Speaker 2 (01:48:59):
Go check that out over on thenewsjunkie dot com. It's
and to see it now section quick break. When we
come back as I said, jury duty. Some big bangers there.
Remember the woman who wanted somebody to take her life? Yes,
I've got more details about what exactly she was doing
in her communications.

Speaker 1 (01:49:16):
Pretty interesting stuff there. And a TikTok prank gone wrong?

Speaker 2 (01:49:21):
What happened?

Speaker 1 (01:49:21):
Wait till you hear this, it's coming up next in
the news. Chunk.

Speaker 2 (01:49:24):
Ye gotta stay by the dump buttony okay, because I

(01:49:45):
don't know who's gonna curse and when they're gonna curse,
and what's gonna happen.

Speaker 1 (01:49:51):
Right now, let's get into this.

Speaker 2 (01:49:55):
Let's do jury duty. Court is now in session.

Speaker 13 (01:49:58):
Let put your phone down and pay attention before we
call the bailiff over to with your ass.

Speaker 2 (01:50:02):
You're knowing jury duty with the news Junkie. Jury Duty
brought to you by the one the only motive of
the de Wit law firm. Injured on the go just
Calmo eight hundred calmo eight hundred calmo or go to
justcalmo dot com. After an accident, all you need to
do is reach out to the attorney that you hear
on this show all the time, the attorney that's going

(01:50:22):
to fight for you battle those insurance companies. Eight hundred
calmo or just Calmo dot com. This is kind of funny. Actually,
this is recently released bodycam footage. Is this the dumb
time or we might need to hit the dumb button? Okay,
I don't know when I'm going to try to work
through this. This is a police officer who arrested a grandmother.

(01:50:46):
I just dumped that.

Speaker 1 (01:50:48):
You don't have to dumb it. That's fine.

Speaker 2 (01:50:49):
Yeah, I'll scream if there's something that's like this that
we can't say. But this is a grandmother who showed
up at a protest and the thing that got the
cop mad was she was in a penis costume.

Speaker 4 (01:51:06):
Oh yes, okay, now we're talking.

Speaker 2 (01:51:11):
And now we can start there. Is there anything illegal?
Maybe it's a little crass if you think kids might
be driving by, But she is in a penis costume.

Speaker 1 (01:51:24):
It's an inflatable penis costume.

Speaker 2 (01:51:25):
I see it right here. She has a no dictator
you can imagine how that's spelled sign in her hand.
She's in a large, large costume that resembles the male genitalia.

Speaker 1 (01:51:37):
Here is what I'm looking at.

Speaker 5 (01:51:39):
Where you said, hey, we're getting an e as it
means anything?

Speaker 1 (01:51:44):
Oh no, okay, play all the words now, now tell
me what it's over. Let's just wait.

Speaker 5 (01:51:48):
Well, when I did watch this this morning, actually, I
just saw the first millisecond of it, uh huh and
immediately sent so I could not tell you if there's
any curse words. I just knew immediately this was something
that our listeners would love.

Speaker 2 (01:52:03):
Yeah, that's if somebody sent this over yesterday and said, uh,
why would they ever arrest this woman? And I'm like,
I don't even care what this woman's politics are. I'm
just I think it's so funny to arrest a person
in a penis costume. There's something just glorious about it.
We're in the middle of an AS test, so if
it's over, it's over.

Speaker 1 (01:52:23):
Okay, We're we're back, and we're everybody.

Speaker 2 (01:52:29):
This woman who is arrested at a protest in an
inflatable penis costume.

Speaker 1 (01:52:34):
Let's see how it goes. Stay by the dump button.

Speaker 2 (01:52:36):
Patties, we go all right hand, serious heart attack.

Speaker 6 (01:52:40):
I'm not going to sit here and argue with you.
If my kids had to come by and see this,
how would you explain it to them?

Speaker 16 (01:52:47):
Are you recording?

Speaker 6 (01:52:48):
I am recording. I'm recording right here.

Speaker 9 (01:52:50):
I am telling you right Now, if my kids had
to come by and see this, I would like to
hear how you would explain to my children what you're
supposed to be.

Speaker 1 (01:53:00):
Not for nothing? But why does that matter?

Speaker 4 (01:53:03):
You're not talking to your kids about their genitals?

Speaker 1 (01:53:06):
I think, hold on, hold on.

Speaker 2 (01:53:08):
I think he's right, Like, it's probably little crass to
be in a penis costume on the side of the road,
and I get that.

Speaker 1 (01:53:14):
But he's a cop. Why does that matter?

Speaker 2 (01:53:17):
It doesn't make It's either something is illegal or it's
not correct. Right, Like, So, if you're a police officer
and you're approaching somebody, what are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (01:53:26):
Why are you saying? What would you explain this?

Speaker 4 (01:53:28):
Do you know where he's going to find himself?

Speaker 2 (01:53:31):
Is where that?

Speaker 5 (01:53:32):
And it became a national story. The guy who had
that sticker on the back of his truck. Uh huh, yeah,
I remember this what I forgot the exact phrase.

Speaker 2 (01:53:40):
It was some offensive thing.

Speaker 1 (01:53:45):
I eat a word, I eat a word.

Speaker 5 (01:53:47):
It was on his car, pulled over, I believe, arrested
because he refused to take the sticker off and end
up getting a fat settlement because that was against his
uh freedom of speech.

Speaker 2 (01:54:00):
Yeah, this is just a judgmental thing. He's kind of
going in like what what I say to my kids?
I know what he said to your children. Not know
what a is?

Speaker 6 (01:54:11):
Let me get another year up here.

Speaker 16 (01:54:14):
To tell me.

Speaker 6 (01:54:16):
I want you to tell me why.

Speaker 5 (01:54:27):
It's like a seven football.

Speaker 4 (01:54:30):
That's an expensive costume.

Speaker 2 (01:54:31):
I must say.

Speaker 4 (01:54:32):
You don't see your face for anything.

Speaker 5 (01:54:34):
It is very no cartoonish but detailed nonetheless, And now
she's running away.

Speaker 2 (01:54:41):
Oh, he's grabbing her. He's grabbing her costcome.

Speaker 4 (01:54:55):
That is excessive.

Speaker 2 (01:54:57):
He grabbed the back of her inflatable costume and slip
ambed her down on the ground. And there's nothing more
hilariousness just for the folks watching the visual because now
the guy's trying to deflate the large.

Speaker 5 (01:55:09):
On your belt, hands behind your back, there's.

Speaker 1 (01:55:13):
Tests and everything.

Speaker 2 (01:55:16):
Yeah, that was not good.

Speaker 6 (01:55:19):
I told her to take it. Give me your arm,
give me your arm it off, give me your arm,
give me I want your arm. Now I need somebody, give.

Speaker 2 (01:55:31):
Me your arm.

Speaker 1 (01:55:32):
Now leave her alone. She's not doing anything. They're screaming
in the background.

Speaker 2 (01:55:36):
So for the record, he said, I told her to
take it off, and she didn't, and that's why he
took her down physically in this this costume.

Speaker 1 (01:55:45):
I'm gonna pause it right here. When we come back,
we'll get it.

Speaker 2 (01:55:48):
Gets it. It's way more hilarious. As this goes on,
we'll get to the rest of this. We'll find out.
We'll find out, we'll get to the rest of it.
All the additional details on this viral arrest coming up
next to the new junkie.

Speaker 1 (01:56:16):
I want you to flex your brain power a little
bit here, right.

Speaker 5 (01:56:20):
Everybody, my jacket off to shame my muscles, all right.

Speaker 2 (01:56:23):
This is not not muscle power. This is a brain
power thing. I want you to flex your brain power.
The first thing I need everybody to do is put
away all the politics, because this is going to help
you very much here. And this is why this occurred
at a protest. And if you are not on the
same side as the protesters, you might like take issue

(01:56:45):
with something, but that shouldn't matter. That shouldn't be important
at all. Whether you agree with these people or not
shouldn't be important, all right, So that's their base value here.
We're going to try to use our brains. There's a
woman at this protest. She is in public in a
large inflatable penis costume. Yes, all right, and it's like

(01:57:06):
the whole theme is she has a sign this is
no dictator, and you can see where it's going. Right,
the cop comes up, and I think that the cop
is just like morally coming at this, like, I think
this is inappropriate for you to be wearing this costume?

Speaker 4 (01:57:19):
How would I explain it to my children?

Speaker 2 (01:57:21):
Yeah? He starts out with how would I explain this
to my children? And she goes, I don't know, explain
to them where the pun is? And he keeps kind
of leaning in and then I want to listen here closely.
I brought it back a little bit. I want to
see if he demands that she take off the offensive
costume before physically taking her to the ground, and then
we'll hear what happens after that.

Speaker 1 (01:57:41):
There's a whole bunch to unpack here.

Speaker 2 (01:57:43):
But the thing I was trying to hash out over
on school Mike, I said, is there anything about this
costume that could be illegal?

Speaker 1 (01:57:51):
Are there things that you can wear that are illegal?

Speaker 2 (01:57:55):
And other than me wearing a threat and obvious and
clear threat on my shirt, other than me wearing somebody
says I'm gonna bomb the White House at three pm
on Tuesday, that could be something that they might say, well,
this is a threat.

Speaker 4 (01:58:11):
Those are just toning in and he's talking about a
shirt example.

Speaker 2 (01:58:14):
I was going over all these examples on the stream too,
because I was trying to think of a way that
an outfit that could there be something on Sabrina's shirt
right now that was so bad that the cops would go,
you're under arrest. It's pretty bad right now. That's a
little offensive if I'm honest. Yeah, that's two middle fingers this.
This woman is.

Speaker 4 (01:58:35):
Putting up in the air talking about my armpit, buttz
on your on.

Speaker 2 (01:58:39):
Your shirt there, So somebody might find that offensive. And
the problem is, if you're a cop, I don't really
care what you find offensive. That's not against the law.

Speaker 5 (01:58:47):
Swastikas very offensive and as far as the court of
public opinion, you would lose.

Speaker 4 (01:58:55):
Sure, but you could technically with.

Speaker 2 (01:59:00):
You you would. You would probably be yelled at and
people would give you crap, and you might lose your
job and there might be a whole witch hunt. But
it's not against the law to do that stuff. Otherwise, uh,
you print terry be tossed behind bars for a Halloween costume.
At one point in time, this woman is indeed, I

(01:59:22):
will say, wearing a controversial costume. It's male genitalia on display,
and I can see I could see a parent driving
by and being like, well that's upsetting, but that doesn't
make it illegal. Now let's go in here, we.

Speaker 6 (01:59:36):
Go, let me get another yearit over here. I want
you to tell me. I want you to tell me.

Speaker 2 (01:59:43):
Why am I being detained? He's grabbing her? Now, who
grabbing the costume? Okay, yeah, I don't look at.

Speaker 4 (01:59:58):
This costume also is very expensive.

Speaker 1 (02:00:01):
I don't think he.

Speaker 2 (02:00:03):
Said anything but you. I'm requiring you to take off
the costume right now. He was just asking for her
to explain what she would say if a kid was here,
and she said, am I being detained?

Speaker 1 (02:00:13):
Am I being detained? And he physically took her down.

Speaker 2 (02:00:15):
I'm telling you right now, I'm gonna tell you now,
this is absurd.

Speaker 6 (02:00:26):
I told her to take it off.

Speaker 2 (02:00:28):
Give I don't think he did. I didn't hear him
say to take it off unless he did it right
before his camera turned on. But he didn't.

Speaker 1 (02:00:37):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (02:00:37):
Yeah, because that audio starts at some point there, but
you don't hear him on audio demanding should take it off.

Speaker 6 (02:00:42):
Give me your off, give me your arm. I want
your arm now, I need somebody give me your arm.

Speaker 12 (02:00:52):
Now.

Speaker 6 (02:00:54):
I told her to take it.

Speaker 2 (02:00:55):
Off for him.

Speaker 5 (02:01:02):
Also driving by this right now, was that a trying
to rest the giant inflatable penis.

Speaker 2 (02:01:11):
You're never gonna.

Speaker 1 (02:01:12):
Believe what I saw on the way home today.

Speaker 2 (02:01:14):
Honey way.

Speaker 5 (02:01:16):
And then finally the penis unzips and it's an eighty
year old grandmother.

Speaker 2 (02:01:20):
Yeah, it's a grandma who was inside this costume that
the guy is arresting. And I don't even know why
he took this so seriously, but so he brings her
over to the side of the car.

Speaker 1 (02:01:33):
Again, stay by the.

Speaker 2 (02:01:34):
Dump button because I don't know who's gonna curse here.
But now she's still in the Genitalia costume. Male Genitalia,
big inflatable costume. Enough to get off, it's tough to
get off, yes.

Speaker 9 (02:01:45):
It is, it is.

Speaker 1 (02:01:47):
And and now they're trying to get her out of this.

Speaker 6 (02:01:51):
Yeah for all safetories and Judge got back up right here.

Speaker 2 (02:01:54):
Don't right that handcuffs off?

Speaker 6 (02:01:58):
You don't think it's not push your name, Antifa?

Speaker 2 (02:02:05):
Keep honestly, that was kind of cold. What's your name?

Speaker 1 (02:02:14):
At least you said her name like it was Anne Tifa.

Speaker 6 (02:02:18):
Tell me how where the zipper?

Speaker 14 (02:02:19):
This is.

Speaker 16 (02:02:22):
What's in the bart Okay, I'm.

Speaker 6 (02:02:25):
Not trying to be difficult with you, ma'am.

Speaker 2 (02:02:26):
Jo he's using the name is Antifa. I'm not trying
to be difficult with you.

Speaker 5 (02:02:31):
You are You just hold her down to the ground
and he broke the zipper.

Speaker 4 (02:02:36):
Stop her.

Speaker 2 (02:02:36):
They can't find the zipper to get Antifa out of
the costume.

Speaker 1 (02:02:40):
That's her official name, all right, finally on zipping her.

Speaker 6 (02:02:47):
No, I'm not trying to violate you for you mispeech.
I'm trying to preserve a town that has values.

Speaker 3 (02:02:54):
But your.

Speaker 16 (02:02:58):
Head I got in thanks for.

Speaker 6 (02:03:00):
Okay, you're exactly right dropped.

Speaker 2 (02:03:03):
They finally have revealed Grandma, who is inside the costume
the whole time she's.

Speaker 1 (02:03:11):
In there, and she's like, I got in here, I'll
get out.

Speaker 2 (02:03:13):
Let me get out.

Speaker 1 (02:03:14):
And she's not done yet.

Speaker 2 (02:03:23):
Step out of pull your feet out of the costume.

Speaker 16 (02:03:30):
Oh wait, what is that my American flag shoes?

Speaker 14 (02:03:34):
What?

Speaker 16 (02:03:35):
I'm an American.

Speaker 4 (02:03:37):
I'm an American.

Speaker 17 (02:03:40):
She did the thing she did the South Park things.

Speaker 4 (02:03:47):
I'm kind of.

Speaker 2 (02:03:49):
Hilarious.

Speaker 1 (02:03:52):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (02:03:53):
My American flag boots are stuck on my penis costume.

Speaker 11 (02:03:58):
Me.

Speaker 2 (02:04:01):
I'll go back a couple of times. They're trying to
get out.

Speaker 16 (02:04:09):
Oh wait, what is that my American flag shoes?

Speaker 6 (02:04:14):
What?

Speaker 16 (02:04:14):
I'm an American?

Speaker 2 (02:04:16):
I'm an American?

Speaker 17 (02:04:18):
Who knows who I have?

Speaker 6 (02:04:21):
Right?

Speaker 16 (02:04:22):
Who knows?

Speaker 6 (02:04:26):
All right? Now, no need that. Then we'll take it.
Step over, All right, you're.

Speaker 2 (02:04:30):
Gonna put it.

Speaker 6 (02:04:31):
We're gonnaise, I don't know, put him on the front.
Put him on the front.

Speaker 2 (02:04:35):
They're also talking about let's let's try if you guys
can find out more about this. It happened last month.
October eighteenth was the date of the arrest in Fair Hope, Alabama.

Speaker 1 (02:04:50):
All Right, the woman's name. Okay, here's what I have.
These are only details I have.

Speaker 2 (02:04:54):
Maybe you can find Renee Gamble, it's not Gambling who
showed up wearing an inflatable penis costume and holding a
political sign. According to legal filing, she had been peacefully
participating in the protests without any issues. The encounter escalated
when the police, Colonel Andrew Babb, arrived on seeing and
confronted Gamble about her costume. Bab told her the outfit

(02:05:17):
would not be tolerated. In what he described as a
talent with values, expressing concern about children potentially seeing it.
Despite protesters insisting she wasn't doing anything wrong, bab deemed
her behavior disorderly. Bodycam footage shows him grabbing the back
of her inflatable costume and pulling her to the ground
before officers handcuffed her. That moment ignited the legal dispute

(02:05:40):
now underway, with Gamble's attorneys arguing that the arrests violated
her First Amendment right to political expression. That's true.

Speaker 1 (02:05:48):
I think they're probably going to win. That would be
my guest.

Speaker 4 (02:05:51):
She was set for an initial court appearance November fifth.

Speaker 1 (02:05:55):
What was the charge? Was the official charge?

Speaker 2 (02:05:58):
You got suck killing meal, Get.

Speaker 5 (02:06:01):
Your hands off my pen coastriom defenses. Okay, hold on,
I missed it, Gamble. It was arrested on the misdemeanor
charges of public refusing to comply. It was using to
comply deemed obscene in a public setting. They received complaints
regarding traffic Hazard's initial court appearance November fifth.

Speaker 4 (02:06:25):
That was pushed back to January.

Speaker 5 (02:06:26):
Seventh of twenty twenty six after our attorney requested more
time to prepare. The defense is requesting discovery materials from
the City of Fair Hope. She's considered innocent until proven guilty.
Called it a violent arrest, indefensible morally and legally.

Speaker 2 (02:06:43):
And I mean, I'm sure she's fine and in the
grand scheme of things, violent, But he grabbed her by
the costume and yanked her backwards and threw us on
the ground. And he was doing this all and this
is the most important part. Whether you agree with her
or not, whether you know whatever, none of that matters.

(02:07:04):
He was doing this based on his idea that her
costume was offensive.

Speaker 1 (02:07:09):
Now, mind you, that's not for him, as.

Speaker 2 (02:07:11):
An enforcement mechanism of the law, to determine there's nothing
illegal about.

Speaker 5 (02:07:16):
Her cost The mayor's backing up the cop though, really
what it is. Mayor Sherry Sullivan told eighteen nineteen News
that Gamble's behavior was unacceptable and that such a display
would not be tolerated and Fair Hope, Yeah, she was
trolling and stuff.

Speaker 2 (02:07:31):
And if you disagree with her, I could see like
that bothering you. But I just tried to look at
all this from the angle of what did she.

Speaker 1 (02:07:38):
Do that was illegal?

Speaker 2 (02:07:40):
The officer approached with his own moral values. This is
the kind of stuff. When you see the police cracking
down on stuff in places like Saudi Arabia and they're
literally out there like the vice squad, they're enforcing their
own morality on people.

Speaker 5 (02:07:55):
So disorderly conduct and resisting arrests it seems to be
the actual charges.

Speaker 2 (02:08:00):
The biggest problem this cop has is, at least on video,
you don't hear him demand and you don't hear him
repeatedly demand that she'd take off this costume to begin with.

Speaker 1 (02:08:09):
That's number one. So she wasn't refusing an order.

Speaker 2 (02:08:12):
She said, Am I being detained? Am I being detained?
She turned around and was walking away from the police
officer when he yanked her back to the ground. So
I think that her attorneys are going to have a
field day with this. And we'll take your thoughts on this.
Tell us what you think, Send a dispatch over at
the news junky dot com. What I've got to do here?
I like her, I gotta get ok I got a

(02:08:34):
perfect screenshot for see it now. This is a glorious
video and she's sixty one.

Speaker 4 (02:08:39):
I think I said eighty earlier.

Speaker 2 (02:08:41):
I'm sorry. I do like the extra bit where she
was like, oh, what's this time? Oh oh, that's my
American man there. Why I thought this was America? She
literally Randy Marsh.

Speaker 17 (02:08:54):
She partially Randy Marsh and then was edging on gentlemen,
this is the muck same manifest. All right, I'll put
this up.

(02:11:16):
some light on this college campus police officer who released
the safety video. I don't even know if this is
just popping up again or if this is new, but
have you ever seen this? Guy's a college police officer
releasing this video of how to remain safe on campus.

Speaker 2 (02:11:55):
He'll go across at better than a podcast, it was
actually they'll do it where he goes across the crosswalk normally,
and then he's like, don't do this. The second thing
is not good at all.

Speaker 6 (02:12:12):
Contact with the driver of the vehicle. All right, don't
assume they see you do cross the street, calmly, don't
cross the street like this for this and definitely not
like that.

I'll be that one rather be the person who makes
it a little high if I could. So all right,

(02:14:36):
we'll take your feedback on all of this. And it's
so much more. Uh, this is a person Well, you know,
let me go to the dispatches first, because I haven't
done enough of those.

Speaker 1 (02:14:45):
I don't think.

Speaker 2 (02:14:46):
Let's work in a couple of dispatches. Some people are
talking about the woman who was protesting and was arrested
for the costume that the cops said was offensive. Here's
Bart versus Bill Gates.

Speaker 20 (02:15:00):
About the Grandma and the penis outfit. This reminds me
of that movie Sex Drive where he's he's left naked
in the hotel room and the police are there, and
so he grabs the nearest piece of clothing that he has,
which is his giant Mexican donut. I think costume where

(02:15:21):
the mouth can move, and he comes out to talk
to the police and he's moving the mouth as he
talks and the police are pulling the gun on him,
being like put.

Speaker 6 (02:15:31):
Your arm down.

Speaker 1 (02:15:32):
He's like, I can't move the other arm.

Speaker 2 (02:15:34):
Pretty funny movie. Anyways, have a good day, guys.

Speaker 1 (02:15:39):
Tickled himself after that, Chris Farley, here's.

Speaker 2 (02:15:42):
Mo man gy.

Speaker 6 (02:15:43):
Hey, guys, I hope you guys are doing well.

Speaker 2 (02:15:46):
Man, I am really obsessed with this old grandma.

Speaker 6 (02:15:48):
She's the biggest roll ever.

Speaker 2 (02:15:50):
She's even better than fifty thanks Bike.

Speaker 1 (02:15:53):
Yeah, she's pretty funny.

Speaker 2 (02:15:54):
Actually in the moment, very good American flag shoes. You
you can wear what you want. Is this supposed to
be them wearing something offensive? Oh? I've been asked to
leave stores because of this shirt, But I.

Speaker 4 (02:16:10):
Are you playing.

Speaker 2 (02:16:13):
That? It's a deer and the deer's body is made
out of pickle, and it says dill dough.

Speaker 1 (02:16:24):
He's suggesting that this has been a problem.

Speaker 2 (02:16:27):
To wear it. Now, if I had an actual dildo
sticking out, that might be a problem.

Speaker 1 (02:16:33):
Yeah, it could be. Maybe that's maybe that's too far.

Speaker 4 (02:16:37):
Here's about the necklace.

Speaker 2 (02:16:38):
What's what's on the next ship?

Speaker 4 (02:16:41):
Did you from?

Speaker 2 (02:16:42):
Yeah? It's like an anchor and a wheel and a
quite a quite a necklace, sir, pretty cool? You able
to watch out? Man, we're the in the wrong place.
I'm gonna take it from one more. Here's that's true, guys.

Speaker 21 (02:16:59):
So this story at the girl on the cruise. Yes,
it just seems to be getting weirder and weirder than
be sure. So here's there's more speculation. So they just
interviewed the boyfriend and he's fifteen now right now, he's fifteen.

Speaker 4 (02:17:12):
He said that they were together.

Speaker 21 (02:17:13):
They broke up six months ago, but they were together
a year ago, so that means he would have been fourteen.

Speaker 2 (02:17:19):
Okay, I'm gonna stop her because unfortunately, I think the
guy made a mistake. I think that the boyfriend, the
ex boyfriend, but the girl who died on the cruise
murder mystery story on the Carnival Cruise Line. I think
that he has posted online potentially and said he made
a mistake, and he's not fifteen.

Speaker 1 (02:17:36):
He was just nervous and he was seventeen, and she.

Speaker 4 (02:17:39):
Very well could have been seventeen.

Speaker 2 (02:17:40):
Yeah, I mean the ages still could have like if
they were lined up the right way, still could have
been like not an illegal thing, but a lot of
people are thrown off by that. So thank you Julie
for the dispatch. It's much appreciated, and I'll save the
rest of them for the end of the show. A
couple of things I didn't get to in jury duty.
Let me wash these out right now. The STATA has

(02:18:01):
dropped charges against a man who was arrested in a
ding dong ditch prank. This is one of those things
where it's a good idea of friends have surveillance cameras
around your house. Why Well, because people listen to narratives.
People often believe what they want to believe despite the

(02:18:21):
evidence in front of them. And case in point in
Boca Ratone, this guy said some kids were trying to
ding dong ditch their house, and his story was these
kids were like trying to knock the door down. Their
story was not only did this guy pull a gun
on us, he held us at gunpoint and said he

(02:18:41):
was gonna kill us and said that that you messed
with the wrong guy. The team told investigators he felt
threatened as he was ordered to get on his knees
and he was grabbed by the shoulder as the guy
pushed him down. Turns out these teenagers who were trying
to mess with this guy's house were also big shock
her absolute liars, and when he released the security footage

(02:19:04):
from his house, it showed that not only did these
kids try to screw with his house, but they tried
to lie about what he did afterwards. He had a
gun that he pulled, he never once pointed it at
these individuals. He told them to stay right where they
were until the police came to sort it out, and
he was fully within his rights theaterly to do that.
They lied about this in the moment. Also, these were

(02:19:27):
supposed to be in jury d a TikTok prank gone wrong.
A Lakeland man in Florida was arrested after he was
seen walking along the roadside fully nude.

Speaker 1 (02:19:37):
On broken arrow trail. It was thirty six degrees.

Speaker 2 (02:19:40):
And this dude is just walking down the road butt naked,
all right, and he's not even.

Speaker 1 (02:19:45):
Wearing his socks.

Speaker 2 (02:19:46):
It was identified as Anthony Day, forty one years old,
and he said he was out there because of a TikTok.

Speaker 1 (02:19:54):
Prank gone wrong.

Speaker 2 (02:19:57):
Though feels a bit like Will Ferrell in Old School,
where you know, he's like, we're all we're all streaking,
and there's nobody else nearby, nobody near this person. And
the final one that I'll pay off here because I
did tease it earlier. Oh, actually, Mom, Donnie and Trump,
the guy who's going to be the next mayor of

(02:20:18):
New York City and President Trump had a meeting. Trump
was speaking of the meeting and Trump said this. Trump said,
I give him a lot of credit for the run.
I think we'll get along fine. We're looking for the
same thing. We want to make New York strong, but
we have a very different philosophy. Oh, he said, we
meet at three o'clock today, So maybe he said this beforehand,

(02:20:39):
but yeah, you talk about this in the run up.
So he's meeting him and very very soon, depending on
what time you're listening to the show. He said, I
think it's going to be quite civil. We'll find out. Now.
Maybe this has already happened and you're listening to the
show and you're like, it wasn't civil. Sean the narrator
might chime in right here that it didn't end up civil.

Speaker 1 (02:20:55):
That could be the case. All right, that's going to
have to do it for now.

Speaker 2 (02:21:00):
Hold on, I did tease this, so let me just
the new details were about this woman who was from
the UK who flew to Florida to be murdered by
this guy. I guess they found out that she flew
to Florida to be sexually abused and possibly murdered by
a guy he met she met on this fetish website,
and the video that was recorded of her agreeing to

(02:21:23):
all of this was several days before he actually killed her,
So this process had gone for a number of days.
And it's going to be a really interesting case when
that one goes all the way through because the man
who's been arrested in her murder. You can't just kill people,
even if they're even if they were at one point
willing to let you do that, You just can't do

(02:21:43):
it all right. When we come back, the final dispatches
stories that didn't make the cut, and today I learned
to wrap everything up for a Friday in the week
that is coming up next on the News Junkie.

let's go over here and do the final Dispatch's are
the final dispatches, but Sean will probably only play thank you, sir,
thank you little non fact real big Fish recorded that

(02:23:16):

Bucco nine together forever, and this is gonna be our
last dispatch here on the show. Uh, evil Eye has
a dispatch for us here he goes, it's I and this.

Speaker 12 (02:23:35):
Is my first, well actually my sixth first dispatch, So screel.

Speaker 6 (02:23:44):
You're not gonna play this one anyway.

Speaker 2 (02:23:46):
That's all.

Speaker 1 (02:23:46):
That's how it works.

Speaker 2 (02:23:49):
It tends to work.

Speaker 1 (02:23:51):
Whereas you're not gonna play this anyway.

Speaker 2 (02:23:53):
I would try Evil Eye zooming in on like the
big topic and and hit us with your thoughts on it.

Speaker 1 (02:23:59):
That's the best way to do it. Last one is
going to.

Speaker 2 (02:24:02):
Come from popcorn the farts, yoskches.

Speaker 22 (02:24:06):
I had to check in quickly when you brought up
this subject about this judge in Saint Charles County, Missouri.
As a child for a small portion of time, my
mother and I lived in the suburbs of Saint Louis.
Matter of fact, Saint Charles was the name of the
town we lived in in Saint Charles County. I was
a very young child, but I do remember at the
time having to get a babysitter to watch me because

(02:24:26):
my mom had to go to court. I found out
later and asking her all about this later. It turns
out nothing ever really came of it. It's a bunch
of trumped up charges. Turns out everybody in town just
had suspicious minds.

Speaker 6 (02:24:39):
I see myself out bernon Loves.

Speaker 2 (02:24:44):
I'm going to ignore that it was a judge that
wore a elviswig in court.

Speaker 1 (02:24:48):
Everybody, Jesse and Alis, that's all you need to do.

Speaker 2 (02:24:51):
Let's get the hell out of here. Let's do today.

Speaker 19 (02:24:53):
I learned the following information may make you feel smarter,
but will not actually increase your IQ.

Speaker 2 (02:24:59):
So don't get Now it's done. We come to today.
It is to Naylor for a Friday, November twenty one,
twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (02:25:09):
Today learned this character.

Speaker 2 (02:25:11):
I am indeed a cat, and this indeed cat.

Speaker 1 (02:25:17):
That's right hat. I could have done it.

Speaker 2 (02:25:20):
The reason Mike Myers ended up playing Cat in the
Hat was because he got sued after canceling on a
prior project. He settled with the company and one of
the terms of the agreement was that he would take
the lead in another film.

Speaker 1 (02:25:33):
And they said, all right, what film is it going
to be?

Speaker 2 (02:25:35):
And they said, no, matter what it is, you have
to do it. He said, it's going to be Cat
in the Hat and Mike Michael Myers, Mike Myers rather
had to by court of law, had to participate in
that movie. Weird deal.

Speaker 1 (02:25:48):
And finally today learned.

Speaker 2 (02:25:50):
This band right here take it, that's right Panic at
the disc Goode. They started out as a Blink on
a cover band. Could have ended with Elvis, but now
here we are my dad.

Speaker 3 (02:26:03):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (02:26:04):
They started out as a Blink W eighty two cover band.
What an amazing band. Nobody's in the band anymore except
for the lead singer. I think doesn't seem like people
got along very well. Let it was some catchy stuff.
