Speaker 1 (00:00):
And it is friends a Share the Show Tuesday. What

doing on a Tuesday? Ready to party? Yeah, hanging in there.
Things are good. You know, we're getting close to the
bike drive this week, which is going to be exciting.
It's gonna be tomorrow this say's gonna be a little
cold out there.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
So that space heater today morning, it could shut down
the entire broadcast.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
We just start a Harley next to us and just
kind of get warmth from the engine of the big Hog.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
I don't know scientists, but I believe that will poison
us as well.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Not if you point it in the opposite direction. Well,
there's only one way to find out for real, So
we might as well put it to the test here.
I think Selan sign which you should always check out
in his studio, says still fertile for now counting down.
I got what do you look at here? Is it

(01:26):
Thursday morning? Vasecto me dam by.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
The time you guys start the show Thursday morning? I uh,
I don't know how long it takes to visseect someone,
but it takes long.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
Think I think they got the VISECTI me down to
like a They come in like fruit ninjo, you know,
and they're out of there before you know it. I
think it happens fast. How you go in, I might
already be vaseected. Well, I mean you aren't now, don't
mean by this time? Yeah, this time Thursday, easy peasy.
And to do to the you how long? Like I'm

(02:01):
gonna ask you a weird question, Okay, is it dangerous
if right after you got to visect me for some
reason you got a surprise you know you got if
you got excited on accident, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
I'm gonna just you know, try and avoid things that
get me excited.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
Feeling stop lying at bonus all the time here.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
That's easy to say. But if somebody tells you, like
if somebody tells me right like now, don't blink really
if you want to blink, I want to blink really bad.
If they're like, whatever you do, don't get excited downstairs.
I'm like, I don't think.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
The the erection would be the problem. I think it
would be any sort of jostling or I mean, I'm
not supposed to lift a bunch of stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
With your penis with either way with the hands or
or that way. Both recommend it.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
I also have an inappropriate question start off the show?
Do they ask for maybe one last deposit?

Speaker 1 (03:07):
No before after afterwards? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (03:10):
Really, because you have to get checked to make sure
that your count is zero.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
They got to make sure they snipped it right. So
then you go into one miracle swimmer?

Speaker 4 (03:19):
What do you do with that one?

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yeah? You know, you ever seen those little like desktop
fish tanks that they have?

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Something more like don't you have that African killer b
that's frozen in time?

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Yes? What about it? It would be the greatest conversation
starter in all of iHeart radios.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
If you're making a necklace for your wife, Like better
than that Metallica album I just have like encased in.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
What's the POxy?

Speaker 5 (03:53):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Right right? What a time to be alive? Well, God
bless you. I mean, I think it's a pretty routine thing.
Do you know how much it costs? You know, I don't.
It's not too late. Sabrina could just swift kick you
and maybe get to the same outcome. Oh no, save
some money, just full it might be the same amount
of pain. I don't know. No, only one way to

(04:14):
find out.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
I don't think my cake would be reversible, though.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
I get to take a muscle relaxer though. That's okay,
All right, Let's put our ears to the ground, our
figures in the post. Unless you what's happening in this great, big,
wide world of ours. Many of you across the United
States of America are getting ready for the big day.
And when I say the big day, you know what
I mean, I'm talking about December twenty fifth, aka Christmas.

(04:40):
That's right, Christmas is on the way. People are excited.
You got Santa Claus who's going to arrive, You got
the reindeer, you got all of the things happening. Save
for some households. Some households apparently are not quite as
excited for Santa Claus this year year and are looking

(05:01):
forward to another visitor. So let's see what's going on.
Let's put our ears of the ground, as I said,
and listen in here to what's happening at the White House.
The other day.

Speaker 6 (05:10):
I was reading my little boy a story at night,
putting him to bed, and he said, Daddy, I don't
want Santa Claus to come to our house for Christmas.
I want President Trump. Oh gosh, I think, mister Trump,
I think you brought. I think you run Christmas to farmers.

(05:31):
With this bridge payment, we'll be able to farm another year.
Help us get by. It is such an honor.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
To be so they got some funding. They got twelve
billion dollars for the farmers on account of fighting the
tariff stuff that's going on. So twelve bill for the farmers.
And this guy says, who knows if he's kidding or not,
He says, his kid is saying, I don't even want
Santa Claus this year. Send Trump by. I want Trump
to visit the house. Hello, do you have cookies for me?

(06:00):
Which I don't know. This might be one of those
that totally happened stories where you like, maybe tell the
kid to leave some big max out for Trump for
Santa Trump. A little little silver plate there with some
fast food on it might be nice. That's what they
wanted this particular household to appreciate the twelve billion dollars

(06:22):
in aid going out to these farmers.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
The way that guy was talking, like his delivery and
cadence was very Nate Bargazzi. Like something about it just
made me think of that guy.

Speaker 6 (06:37):
That comedian git Ardeo's reading my little boy a story
at night, putting him to bed.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
And what is that accent? Is that the Midwest? That's
what I'm thinking. I'm thinking like western Midwest. I don't
know if that's right or not.

Speaker 6 (06:50):
He said, Daddy, I don't want Santa Claus to come
to our house for Christmas. I want President Trump.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Every house I'm in America.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
The camera cuts away to everyone laughing, but you can
hear Trump slap them in the chest.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
And I don't know if that's a stop saying the stories.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Yeah, get a little chunked up at the thought. Yeah, well,
because you think President Trump's not going to visit your
house this year, that's the big worry. Slide down the
chimney is ny? Well, have you not seen the Santa
Claus series of movies? Sure Santa does not need a
chimney to slide down the chimney, just so everybody knows.

(07:30):
So the kids are calm and comfortable about this appears. Yeah,
he goes where the magic of c GI. Yeah, and
how all of these things work. But there you go.
God bless everybody as Christmas season arrives. Whether you're looking
for Santa Claus or Trump out there, one thing's for sure,
it's a tough day to be down under right now.

(07:52):
And when I say down Under, I mean not many
people know this, but it's Australia. Okay, this is what
I'm talking about. And Australia is gearing up because in
a matter of hours, the band kicks in where young
people specifically below the age of sixteen are not allowed

(08:16):
on large portions of the Internet, and the kid band
not just social media. The Internet in jo social media
is a big part of it, and it goes a
little bit beyond that. But it's happening right now. Like
all of the kids, I'll play some of the kids
in Australia talking about this, they're very upset. They're very

(08:36):
upset that this is happening. This is happening to them.
Here's somebody from Australia saying December tenth will be the
darkest day in Australian history.

Speaker 4 (08:45):
Okay, Steve Irwin, anybody, Yeah, This.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
Seems like a little bit of I mean, I don't
want internet bands because they start with banning it for kids,
and then they stretch these bands out and they're like,
now everybody's banned from this stuff.

Speaker 4 (09:00):
So it's going to be a dark day for parents
who have to deal with their children who can There.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
Has to be in the history of Australia some tragedy
that this statement is insulting, worse.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
I'm sure in Australia. Like if I said, you know,
if they like remember when they were trying to ban TikTok.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
Yeah, if somebody had come out and said this is
the worst day in American history, I think they did.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
I think there might have been some talkers, right, yeah,
I think there might have been some overreactions on that
will be the darkest day in Australian history. Let's compare it.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Go ahead, all right, So we have worst days often
involve massive loss of life.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
Yeah, well, I think so.

Speaker 4 (09:42):
So we have the Battle of.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
Fromme Elas that was in nineteen sixteen, considered the single
deadliest day for Australians and military history, over five thousand casualties.
We have Black Saturday bushfires of two thousand and nine.
Oh yeah, that killed one hundred and seventy three people and.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
A lot of koalas. Yes, that was a sad story.
That's way darker than this.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
We had me bloods in nineteen seventy four, cyclone Mahina
in eighteen ninety nine.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
But I guess sad stuff happening in Australia did that. No,
If you did this, America would like it would be
like school shooting, school shooting, school shooting nine to eleven
nine eleven, note eleven.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
There would be all that argument was, there's like the
same thing they said, and this is an actual much
darker thing than you know, kids under sixteen not being
allowed to use the internet. But when Charlie Kirk got
shot on September tenth, and somebody said that was the
darkest day in American history, there are a.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
Lot of people that were like, do you know what
tomorrow is? Yeah, But to be fair, the assassination of
a dude is closer to the darkest day. That's why
I prefaced it with that. Just the kids getting loss
of access here. Of course for them, the Australian kids
are like, you guys have no idea what you're talking about.
It's easy for you to say you're going to continue

(11:02):
to be able to get access. December tenth will be
the darkest day in Australian history. It's something you would
expect from China or Korea. They always toss that out there,
just say North Korea. We know you're talking about North Korea.
It's something you'd expect from China Korea. But in fact
Australians will be no longer free to access the Internet.

(11:23):
Australia will enter into authoritarian rule and a draconian, oppressive future.
And this is dark for band and some kids. The
social media band is a farce as children cannot acquire
access to mobile phones without an adult in Australia. I mean,
doesn't that and not where the problem is like, yeah,
technically kids can't get cell phones without adults in most cases,

(11:47):
but the adults buy all the kids the cell phones
because honestly, it's just easier on the kids, young.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
Thirteen year olds with you know, self made walking into
the mobile phone store.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
Not even more back of the days when you could
create businesses, decking out my MySpace profiles, maybe, but not anymore.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
The old days, the lighter days.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Well, the social media ban is a farce.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
It says though, quick side question, but are you not
allowed as under eighteen year old to go into like
a seven to eleven and buy a burner phone?

Speaker 1 (12:19):
I think you are, but I'm not sure. I'm not
one hundred percent, certainly not in Australia. But I feel
like if you I feel like I bought a burner
phone underage maybe at some point in time. Why because
I couldn't get a contract. My my credit was so
bad around the time Dylan was born. I couldn't get
anything for it. I was you know, I want to know.

(12:40):
One of the most embarrassing times in my life. I
was working at Circuit City. Everybody true story. I wanted
to sell cell phones, but I didn't make the cut,
so I had to sell portable home phones of the
nine hundred megahertz variety. And then I made friends with
the guys and gals who were selling the cell phone

(13:00):
and one of them is like, hey, I'll set you
up with one because you're an employee here. It's super easy,
like there's no qualifications almost any I've never put anybody's
name in and they've been rejected by a Circuit City,
and I go, oh, I want one. Of those cool beer.
Everybody's got our motorole eraser. I want one of those,

(13:21):
and the guy goes, so easy, les check this out,
get to get a shunas birthday, and then he goes, man, no,
it's it's coming back, and no, it's coming back. And
I couldn't even get at my own circuit city a
razor cell phone. That was the darkest day in the
United States history. It was Yeah, it was bad. It's

(13:42):
really really tough stuff. Uh, they finish up. The new
laws are part of a global scandal to oppress Western
democracies using tech tools. Australia is no longer a free society.
My god, it sounds well, it sounds kind of dark.
But should the kids be banned off of some of
these platforms? Is this actually a good idea? If you

(14:03):
were president and you could snap your fingers and not
take over Santa Claus's job, but instead decide if kids
under sixteen would be allowed on the internet, would you
say yes or would you say no? This is the
question I have for you today. Now, if you think
that sixteen and below should be off the internet, why

(14:24):
if you think they should be allowed on the internet,
tell us why this is something that's happening right now
in Australia, but certainly we are headed along that path
in the United States of America.

Speaker 3 (14:35):
Now we have a handful of laws around here. Kids
under thirteen can't have social media.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
I think. Yeah, in Florida in particular, there's laws about this,
but there's lots of states. I think New York has
had some stuff that's come up to lots of states
have had minor things that they've done to try to
make it so teenagers can't access the Internet. Will there
be ideas? Will we be better off or worse off?
If every single sixteen and below was booted off the Internet? Though?

(15:05):
How about this?

Speaker 2 (15:07):
Not booted off the Internet, but give them our internet
when we were their age.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
Oh gosh, that would be so delicious.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
You get access to a very crappy I don't know,
MySpace page, a journal ICQ.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
You're thinking like a digital kids table, correct, but that.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
They would still some social without getting creepy. You get
the aim chat rooms or creepy.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
Yeah, those are a little creepy.

Speaker 3 (15:35):
The problem is when some adults with bad intentions gets
on the kid internet.

Speaker 4 (15:41):
Internet roblucks, how are you?

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Yeah? I mean, I look at this, and I go,
it's a tough one because I mean, I don't know
about you guys, but when I think about my teenage years,
the internet was kind of even though it was just
kind of starting out then, it was kind of an
important part of my life at that point.

Speaker 4 (15:59):
Yeah, I could also turn it off and go do
fun stuff.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yes, yes, yes, and that's happening so much less now.
So for certain that's an issue. But it did open
you up to the outside world. And so I wonder,
and there's a lot of people in chat who are like,
shut it down. They think the world would be a
better place if every sixteen year old and below was
kicked off the Internet. I want to see where you're at.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
So weird to hear shot argument about this because he's like,
the internet can open kids up to the outside world.
When I was young, I worked for Lively.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
I showed them some dark things, my first beheading video.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
Probably. Yeah, if I would be okay if teenagers were
banned from all of the websites I worked for at
one point in time when you were be basically a teenager. Yeah,
it's true that would that would be sensible. But let
us know what you think about this. Would the world
be a better place? Would teenagers be better off if
all of them sixteen and below were banned from the internet.

(17:00):
Send your dispatches right now, go to thenewsjunkie dot com.
We'll get further into that. We have, believe it or not,
weird time for cruise ships. Weird time for cruise ships.
Out there. There's another cruise ship that has a very
big scandal on their hands. And if you've gone on
a cruise ship recently, there's a real good chance you've

(17:22):
been on this one. I'll tell you what happened on
board and what's going on behind the scenes right now.
That is coming up next on the News Junkie. Another

(17:49):
ding against the cruise ship industry in the news this
week for Captain Brun. I think we talked about this
story when it first came out, Zelyn. I think we
discussed Michael Virgil's story when it first came out. Michael Virgil,
this is the guy who was on Royal Caribbean's Navigator
of the Seas.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
Okay, I think I saw this headline yesterday, and I
don't remember it if we had talked about this specific
person or not.

Speaker 6 (18:19):
But.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
Yes, I remember playing the video I thinks the brain
is right, because if the guy was like freaking out
in the hallway and he kicked the door or something,
he was on this Royal Caribbean cruise, a four day
navigator of the seas, he's going to ruin it.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
People who can handle themselves in a manner that doesn't
get them arrested, but like the party.

Speaker 1 (18:45):
Yeah, I'll tell you what the problem is here. For me.
We have an absolute death of certain things in the
United States of America, and one of them that is
most devastating to me is the death of personal responsibility.
And so now somebody goes on a cruise and they go,
you have an option now to buy the drink package

(19:05):
and the right drink package, and they buy the drink package,
and they go on the cruise, and then they order
drink after drink after drink after drink, and they give
them the drinks, and then something bad happens and the
person's like, I blame the cruise. Lie. You're like, no,
have some personal responsibility, dummy. You're the one who made
eight thousand decisions on the run up to this, and

(19:27):
you want the world to coddle you like a big
fat baby through your entire life. There are consequences to
bad decisions. This is the story of Michael Virgil. He's
thirty five years old or was. He died on December third,
twenty twenty four, during a four day Navigator of the
Seas cruise from Los Angeles, California. They're going to Encinata, Mexico.

(19:50):
He was traveling with his fiance and their young son
and other relatives. According to the complaint filed in federal court,
the lawsuit is brand new. Virgil participated in the ship's
all inclusive Deluxe beverage package.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
Hell yeah, and he was saving money if you pair
it with a Wi Fi package.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
He was served at least thirty three alcoholic drinks in
the hours time it says in the hours is that
twenty four hours forty eight hours thirty three alcoholic drinks
in the hours leading up to his death. The family,
allegency became visibly intoxicated as crew members continued serving him alcohol.
So why didn't the family members come in and stop

(20:31):
this guy? Why is it? Why in all of these
cases where something goes wrong, is it always like the
company or the government's responsibility. It's your responsibility at the
core of it. But if I'm out with Courtney and
we're on this cruise ship and Courtney starts drinking and
she's had thirty three alcoholic beverages, guess whose responsibility is

(20:53):
to make sure that she's safe? And okayy mine, it's mine. Okay,
she's had thirty three drinks, sixty three. She can't speak English,
she's done. She's speaking gibberish and blowing in the wind.
And I it's my responsibility as the closest person to her,
within proximity of her, closest closest person to her, it's

(21:15):
my responsibility, I believe to step up and take care
of that person. Thirty three alcoholic drinks aside, like, imagine
being so weird that you look at the world and
go If this place keeps serving me drinks and I
keep drinking the drinks, then anything that happens afterwards is
not my responsibility. It's the responsibility solely of the people

(21:36):
that kept giving me drinks.

Speaker 4 (21:38):
Welcome to I'm a baby now cruise.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
Now now there's a there's daily limits and hourly limits,
and now there's a like those little breathalyzers on the
barstools or something.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Joe, Okay, I do have an idea because if we've
heard anything besides all the and murders as of late
in this industry, they also have talked about you can't
bring your own what is it, the Wi Fi thing, starlink,
starlink thing, because they'll know immediately.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
So that technology is available.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
There was some technology available to give us the number
of drinks that this man had before he died.

Speaker 4 (22:20):
Yeah, so why not if you see, oh.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
Passenger number four hundred and twenty five is going on
drink twenty three.

Speaker 4 (22:29):
There's a little flag up, maybe sir, you should enjoy
a water and we've just sent a hearty sandwich to
your room.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
They're going to say, like, look, we can't monitor every package.
They can and they do on the drinks, right, like
a drink package. Not that long ago you went on
a cruise with a drink package.

Speaker 4 (22:48):
I think too, without a doubt. Now you see the horrist.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
Band and regardless of it being unlimited, you they should
be aware of how many drinks people were having, no.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
Question, But he got drunk, Okay, guy Virgil is drunk.
Then he was trying to find his way back to
his cabin and he got lost and angry. It says
Royal Caribbean security personnel tackled him, restrained him with their
body weight, and held him in a prone position that
restricted his breathing. Now, I'll remind you here as I recall,

(23:18):
I think he was like trying to kick in the
door of another cabin that wasn't his. So the people
in the cabin were like, what, Yeah, what's going on here?

Speaker 7 (23:27):
You know?

Speaker 1 (23:27):
And he's like, I'm just trying to find my room.
Like all of this is unbelievably one side. It's a lawsuit,
I get it, but it alleges Royal Caribbean security personnel
tackled him, restrained him with their body weight, and held
him in a prone position that restricted his breathing. The
complaint also says crew members used multiple cans of pepper
spray damn multiple cans, and at the direction of a

(23:49):
staff captain, injected him with Halo paradal, a sedative. He
then became unresponsive and died on the ship.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Lot That makes sense for a lawsuit. Why are you
injecting him with something?

Speaker 1 (24:02):
When? Is it because he's out of control? That's what
they do. This is why the cops do the same thing.
If cops come up to you and you're in the middle,
like some meth induced freak out in the middle of
the street, have that on them. They taste you. I shouldn't.
I shouldn't say. The cops, the paramedics, the first responders
who arrived at the scene under the direction of law enforcement,

(24:25):
will give you. I don't know if it's ketamine. See like,
try to see what what are the what is law enforcement?
What if first responders use on you if you're freaking out,
what way they inject you with? I don't know if
it's ketamine or it might be something else. A mental
freak out makes sense.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
But if your body is reacting this way after that
amount of alcohol, which is technically I guess a downer,
your heart rate is already different. To do that on
top of where your heart and body is processing these
chemicals in a certain way, I can imagine that's not
going to result in the greatest fashion.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
They had. They had to get the guy calmed down,
they said, they said, the guy's freaking out. They said
he wouldn't he wouldn't calm down. They had to get
with the halo paradol. And now, just for the record,
I don't know how strong that is.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Or according to Google, first responders whose fast acting sedative
injections primarily Benzo's like versaid or kenemye.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
Okay, so they do use kenemine sometimes. And by the way,
this is why a lot of times will lead to
stuff where people end up dying during arrests and stuff,
or people on their own the drugs that they have
their own, and then the cops interact with them. You
have something called excited delirium and all kinds of other
issues that will lead to somebody dying. But the point
is the family should have been responsible. He should have

(25:44):
been immediately responsible for himself. You can't. This is like
a It's weird because a lot of people who view
these things are much more community based people than individual
based people. Right yet in this case, they they don't
want a community based response. They want like an individual response.
And what I'll make that a little more, make that

(26:06):
make more sense, Virgil. In this case, the guy who
ended up dying, he was causing chaos for everybody else
on the cruise ship. He's scaring people in this cabin,
he's freaking out all over the place. He's being agitated
and causing an issue for them. Security has to intervene,
and it's trying to protect everybody else on the cruise

(26:27):
from the one main problem. Whereas people sometimes do the
inverse of that argument, They're like, no, you've got to
protect him in that moment, and you cannot inject him
with anything that would be a sedative because it could
kill him. I mean, he got himself in that situation.
What I googled the drug that you were asking about.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
You know, when Google gives its like ai answer, it
has sources that its cites, and one of them was
a very very this week in Florida ESK Florida Ems
Department will soon equip paramedics with ketamine to help control
patients who a high on flakka.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
Yeah, guy, it is twenty sixteen. Let's been a while.
What wasn't that the year when on the show we
had like a new drug every week that came out. Yeah,
it's like fluck. There was wasn't there one that was
like cheese? Yeah? There was a lot of weird ones
around that time. This guy, I think was just drinking.

(27:24):
Question Mark Row Caribbean fully understands and expects that alcohol
over consumption by passengers will result in the diminution of
their inhibitions, motor skills, and judgment. The lawsuit says which
Row Caribbean, upon information of belief, expects, will foster the
general party atmosphere they promote aboard its vessels. So they're saying,
like they show in their commercials, hey it's a party.
Row Caribbean's popping off. But in reality they do the alcohol.

(27:48):
They do have the ability to cut you off. Yeah,
Like they can deactivate your room card, which is what
you used to get your drinks. You know, I know,
I know somebody who had did up to them on
one of these all you can drink cruises. So h
it probably happens more often than you think. Probably you
got a cruise ship full of thousands of people. There's

(28:11):
it's almost inevitable that on every couple of cruisings you're
gonna have somebody who drinks too much.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
Under you should think that, Like when you scan the card,
like as the bartender, it should show you immediately what
your count is.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Yeah, for the day, exactly, it does it. So if
you're on, for instance, the Princess cruise ship that Courney
and I are going on in a couple of weeks.
Here you have a medallion that you bring around with you,
and when the service or anybody come near you, they
know who you are and like what drinks you like
and what stuff you like, and how you want to
be interacted with, and so they would know. They'd be like,

(28:47):
here's Sean, he likes, he's been drinking a lot of
these rum punches. Not talk to him, and he doesn't
want to chit chat with you. All right, alarm bells
going off, So he's had fourteen rum punches today. Just
let them fry in the sun. That's what he wants
to do right now. The biggest question to ask to you,
and we'll throw this over to you dispatchers and emailers,
is who's responsible here? Who's responsible? Is it? Literally? Do

(29:10):
you think the cruise ship's fault that he was freaking out,
he had too much to drink and they wanted to
sedate him to be safe for the other passengers. Is
it the cruise ship's fault? Is it his fault alone?
Is it his family's fault? Let us know what you think.
It's getting wild out there on the high seas. Send
us a dispatch over on thenewsjunkie dot com. Right now,

(29:32):
All right, quick break, When we come back. We got updates,
a lot of reaction on the Australia social media band
stuff that's interesting. An update, believe it or not, on
that racist Cinnabon freak out thing yesterday. That lady is
back in the news and some more information about her
is coming out, So we'll get to that at some point.
And everybody's freaking out of our license plates. Should you

(29:54):
be what's going on here? Are you going to jail?
We'll find out that's coming up next. The new use
chunkie people are freaking out about this whole license plate situation.

(30:21):
For those of the outside of Florida, this might sound weird,
but they just pushed through some new laws, and with
the new laws was something where they could pull people
over or find people because of something blocking their license plate.
And I was a little.

Speaker 4 (30:39):
Surprised too, it was honest. I don't remember it being
talked about.

Speaker 1 (30:43):
I remember a little bit of discussion about this, but
it was mostly about people using lights or like tinted
covers that just hide their license plates. And they were
like hiding the license plates either from the things on
the highways, yeah, the toll the toll things and like
to go through some pass and whatnot right, or they

(31:06):
were using it to like evade the police, and everybody's
going to be on board with that, Like you shouldn't
be able to do those things. There's a reason why
you have a license plate in your car. There's the
reason why some states have license plates on the front
and back of your car.

Speaker 3 (31:19):
Are we sure that these are new rules you're referring to,
because I've heard a bunch of stories from back of
the day. It's almost like a not a blue law,
but like a law that a lot of people don't enforce.
But then you get a couple, you know, police officers
that want to get particular about stuff.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
I've heard of people.

Speaker 3 (31:40):
Being ticketed for having the frames around the license like
the one that the that the car dealership puts on
for you sometimes.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
And that's what everybody's so scared about seeing because now
people are talking about that more than ever. They're like,
even just the frame around your license plate, they could
pull you over. You could get a five hundred dollars
fun or you could go to jail.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
But what I'm saying is it's that's already been something
that technically wasn't allowed.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
Is is this a new rule or This is a
new law called House Billed two fifty three. HB two
fifty three is established this law, and it says it
sets up harsher penalties. So maybe there was the penalties
as you're saying, but this makes them more significant when
a police officer is pulling somebody over and they're violating

(32:28):
this place.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
Did we not talk about, maybe less than two years ago,
how they were going to try to do some advertising
on license plates here in.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Florida there was a digital license plates thing that was
trying to go through.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Yeah, there was something and communicating with each other because
what if some people went with the digital license plate
with advertising?

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Are they now going to go to jail? That's certainly
getting in the way of the tag if it turns
to a pluribus ad on the back of your vehicles.
So sorry, Carrol FF.

Speaker 3 (33:00):
Three says it does. It reclassifies the offense of driving, moving,
or causing to be moved vehicle or equipment with certain
lighting on highway as a third degree felony and a
specified circumstance. It increases the penalty for knowingly altering a
motor vehicle registration certificate, a license plate, a temporary license plate,

(33:21):
a mobile home sticker or a validation sticker, or obscuring
a license plate from a non criminal traffic infraction to
a second degree misdemeanor.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
Okay, so it heightens the charge and makes the punishments worse.
But everybody, now, including you, driving around You got a
vehicle not that long ago from a dealership and it
has one of those little trim things around it where
he both the license plate on. I mean, I think
I think probably the majority of people have that. I

(33:51):
have that on two cars. I don't think I have
on mine. I think I took it. I think I
take it off. My dad used to tell them to
take it off.

Speaker 4 (33:59):
Take it off.

Speaker 1 (34:01):
I don't want to have to advertise for you on
my car. Pick it up. He's not wrong, Blane's not
wrong about that. But here's what they're saying. It applies
to any of the following situations. Now I'm getting like
both sides of this all over the place. But hold on,
let me bring up this article so we can look
at it here. Because Channel six that is talking about

(34:21):
this says, is your license plate frame illegal? Here's what
Florida's new law says. It's HB two fifty three. That
everybody's freaking out about a recent law that took effect. Again,
this is from News six says, can I be arrested
over my licens plate? The answer is it depends. It
applies to the following situations. One mutilating or defacing a

(34:42):
registered license plate. So that's not going to be the
case for a lot of people. Like you would really
have to be doing like maybe faking what the numbers
are on it, or like making it so you can't
read it. You could even.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
Like dull this down into just putting a sticker on
it like you have. Yeah, if you have a Florida
license plate that has the orange in the middle and
you put like a little I don't know sticker, yeah,
that could be illegal.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
You can't change the plate's color. You can't change your
license plates color. Otherwise I could pull you over. You
could go jail. Finding another final that stuff. You can't
apply a reflective material, spray covering, or anything else that
can obscure the plate. You can't attach an illuminated device
that can prevent somebody from reading the plate. So all

(35:31):
of those are things that I think are meant to
like stuff you might buy online or Amazon. It's meant
to hide your license plate number so that you can
get away with stuff. But that wouldn't be everybody with
these these little like trim, these things that are around
the license plate. At least that's what I would think.
But then if you go to WFTV Channel nine, their

(35:54):
set this is much more dramatic. I guess you might say.
This has most license plates frames are now illegal in
Florida under a new law. This is most license plate
frames are now illegal in Florida under a new law.
And news that may have slipped under your radar, your
favorite license plate frame may now actually be illegal.

Speaker 2 (36:12):
You know, there are still I'm sure thousands of people
who's still it's going to fly under their radar. And
I wonder maybe MO list if you get pulled over
and ticketed or fined or god forbid, even going to
jail because of a dealership license cover what do you
call it?

Speaker 4 (36:31):
Plate frames?

Speaker 1 (36:32):
Plate frame thing?

Speaker 4 (36:33):
Can that be held against the dealership that you've got on.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Your car from. I'll put that on the list for MO.
This is again, this is like two different channels saying
two different things. One said, Hey, as long as nothing's
obscured and they can read your license plate number in
your registration.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
Well, the argument is that the frame does obscure the
border of the license plate. Yeah, yes, But the point.

Speaker 1 (36:52):
Is if you're not obscuring anything important, if you're not
obscuring any information that is of value to an officer,
then it doesn't really matter. But I think that's the argument.

Speaker 3 (37:02):
They're not saying obscuring important information, They're saying obscuring the plate.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Well, yeah, the entirety of the plate. WFTV says, the
new legislation makes it illegal to block, cover, distort, or
here's the key part from them. This is where they
disagree with Channel six or even slightly obscure of Florida
license plate with penalties including sixty days in jail or
a five hundred dollars fine for knowingly driving with an

(37:27):
obscured plate. License Plate frames are permitted only if they
do not cover the numbers or letters, the registration decal,
the word Florida, or any part of the plate border.
If a frame overlaps even a sliver of the plate's design,
it's likely illegal, is what they said on Channel nine.

(37:49):
So I mean, that's that's going to be so particular,
and then what do you do, Well, The thing that
you do that I don't like being me is that
you give police another weird, vague tool that they can
use to pull somebody over and need to go, why
are you pulling me over?

Speaker 8 (38:10):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (38:10):
You know you had these things dangling from your rear
view mirror, or you had a license plate frame, which
eighty seventy sixty percent of the cars I don't know
what the number is probably has these frames. You're just
giving a point of contact reason for these police officers.
They used to have to go. I think one of
your lights are out back here, or I smelled some marijuana.

(38:35):
It could be another tool for this. I don't like that.
I don't want the vagaries. I don't want any of that.
I want clear cut Hey, here's what's going on, and
for me, as long as you can see the clear
numbers on your license plate and see your registration information,
see the key details. If there's little something just around
the very edge of the frame of it, that's that

(38:56):
doesn't matter. That's not what I mean supposed to be have.
You know, covering the word Florida is dumb.

Speaker 9 (39:04):
Because unless you're like, there's an orange in the middle
of don't know that it's a Florida plate. But where
where is that at? On the Florida license plate is
orange at the top. No, the oranges in the center.
The Florida part is on the top left.

Speaker 6 (39:19):
No.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
Yeah, go to the top of that page that you're on. Yeah,
right there it says my Florida dot com. Right, and
then there's a Florida silhouette and then oranges and stuff.
The only anybody, the only way anybody would cover that
up is if they had, like Ceilian said, stickers right
on it. But in this case, the example that they
show is from a dealership, and it does cover my

(39:42):
Florida dot com. It doesn't cover the license plate number. Yeah,
it doesn't cover the registration. It's got room for that.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
I just think that an advertisement in and of itself,
Like are you supposed to.

Speaker 1 (39:55):
Know the U r L or the state's website? Yeah?
I mean you can't see that. What happens then.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Dotv dot com.

Speaker 1 (40:02):
My biggest problem is with the vagueness. I don't think
there should be any ambiguity or vagueness in these circumstances.
You shouldn't have all three of us driving home going hmmm,
wonder if I'm going to go to jail for sixty
days right now, that seems like that seems bad generally speaking,
but let us know what you think. Set us a

(40:22):
dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com right now. We still
got the words of these these teenagers who have been
banned from social media at Australia. What are they saying?
We'll get further into that. Updates on the Cinnabon viral
freakout situation, and had an update on how much money
that woman's getting, which one, Oh, the Cinnabon lady. Okay,

(40:44):
all right, keep that going. It's not go funny anymore,
but keep that info up as well. We got a
lot for you on to share the show Tuesday and
it's coming up next on the news Chunkie soon enough.

(41:09):
It's just the whole internet. They're like sixteen and under, boom,
get off the Internet. And it brought a lot of
things to mind because I've been thinking here in the
studio about my time as a teenager on the Internet,
and I have to tell you, I don't know if
it was porn, porn, porn, porn, porn, porn, porn born, poorn,
born poor poor, Well it's not wrong, but that's not.

(41:34):
I don't think that was like my best time in
terms of like how I view the Internet at its best,
I think, and I swear to this. Before two thousand
and five, which was the year so much of it started. YouTube, Facebook, Twitter,
all of these big platforms all kicked off right around

(41:54):
the same time in two four to two thousand and
six or something. Before that, I argue the internet was
a more fun place. People were like. So Sabrina would
have her collection of websites that she went to, and
she'd be like, what do you look at? And I'll go, oh,
I go to this website and I go to the

(42:15):
and I'd be like, where'd you find that? Sobrina be like,
I found it on this website. I bet oh, I
haven't heard of that one. And you collect the websites
that you check and you go to get information.

Speaker 7 (42:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (42:27):
One of the ones you and I had in common
early on when we first started the show many moons
ago was strike gently. I was like super stoked because
you were the only person that I had ever spoken
to face to face that knew what website that was.

Speaker 1 (42:40):
Turned into all porn by the way turn before I
went it was it was yeah, like leaked music and stuff,
and you went to all these different websites. Sealane would
probably be like, oh, guys, I don't go to any
of those websites you and Sabrina go to. I go
to this slate of websites and now it's all rip.

(43:02):
Nobody goes to blogs anymore, barely these things are It's
like you just go to the fire hose. You go
to those social media platforms. That's where you get all
this information and less you're in Australia because the teenagers
are getting the boot as of today, like you cannot
go on to the internet if you're under sixteen. And

(43:25):
I've got some of the teenagers upset about this. I
want to hear their case. They deserve to be heard here.
They're having a very rough day. They can't go on TikTok,
they can't go on YouTube for the YouTube shorts, they
can't watch AI videos, and they're upset about it. Do
they email each other? They might have to. They have
to resort to very very old things. They can't. It's gone.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
I'm sure there is a lot of schools though that
are using internet. I mean even when I was in
high school, we were using the Internet at some point.

Speaker 1 (43:55):
Yes, but you can't use social media. You can't use
the social media platform. You're not supposed having to count
on them.

Speaker 3 (44:01):
With something like brisbee Tails brought it up in the chat.
Would something like live journal be considered social media? I
don't know that we were writing blogs and commenting on
each other's stuff, so well.

Speaker 1 (44:15):
Can I make that a little bit more personal? Couldthnewsjunkie
dot com be considered social media because you can submit content?

Speaker 4 (44:23):
No, Australian government's listening.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
People can comment on the content and like the content
or follow you, and you could follow them, and so
I go. If some of these things are instituted under
a certain user base, then they'll say, hey, you're not
allowed to have this. You're not even allowed to be
on this app. Here's the teenagers complaining in Australia.

Speaker 4 (44:45):
Taking away how we communicate to the world.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
This is how we do it. It's a modern day
in social media.

Speaker 8 (44:52):
From Wednesday, Australia in force a world first law banning
children under sixteen from many of the biggest platforms. They're
heated about, supported by a freedom advocacy group. Masie and
Noah's case asserts a right to political communication.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
So these kids are suing the I want my TikTok,
I gotta go on, and they're suing the government on
Australia for being banned from the High Court has agreed
to hear it next year.

Speaker 4 (45:18):
We will lose connections, but we will lose our democracy.

Speaker 2 (45:22):
This law is saying that democracy begins at sixteen, which
is condescending and it's incorrect.

Speaker 1 (45:27):
Listen, there are definitely negatives on social media. I'm not
denying that. I can truly agree. We're saying that getting
rid of the kids is not the solution.

Speaker 10 (45:36):
We didn't do anything wrong.

Speaker 8 (45:38):
The government says it is active to protect children.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
And there are these powerful, harmful, deceptive design features that
even adults are powerless to five.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
Again, all right, so this is the four the band people,
and they're saying there are powerful features. She's not an Australian.
This lady's saying auto play and AutoPlay and endless scroll
and endless scroll.

Speaker 4 (46:00):
So what chance do our children have.

Speaker 8 (46:02):
The government's ban is a capsule. If you're under the
age of sixteen, you're off social media. But children are
all different. They've engaged with social media differently and they
feel differently about the band.

Speaker 1 (46:14):
Yeah, I think most of these kids you go to
a high school right now, they're lit on fire about
the idea that this would happen to them, because as
far as as far as I know, and I might
be sounding like an old man right now, but I
believe high school kids basically just trade around their Instagram

(46:34):
names and message each other on Instagram and like their
communication base is sent around mostly around Instagram as a
platform as far as I know, I might be wrong
about that, But Snapchat, I think that's the case. Probably
some Snapchat two. The younger folks have been you know,
on that platform for a long time, but this would
get them off of all of them if they followed

(46:56):
the rules. But again, I can only be honest with you.
I think if I'm in Australia and I'm fifteen years
old and they said you're banned from all the social
media platforms, I'd be like, yeah, oh no, I won't
be going on them, and then I would find a
VPN within five checks doubt and I would easily work.

Speaker 2 (47:16):
Unless the directions can be found on TikTok and Instagram.

Speaker 1 (47:20):
Then you're screwed. If the way out is on the place,
so you can't go to anymore. You're screwed.

Speaker 3 (47:26):
Have they discussed what the penalty is, Like, who'se a job?
Is it to keep the kids from the internet? If
the kids get on the internet, if they use a
VPN or something, are they in trouble or is it
just solely on the providers and the websites themselves to

(47:47):
police themselves and tell the kids they're not allowed in.

Speaker 1 (47:50):
Well, let me turn that back on you, see, Lane,
who do you think should be responsible? You've got a
young child right now. Who should be responsible about governing
teenagers internet acts? Their parents? Their parents, he says, their parents.
I think their parents is the best solution in most cases. Unfusually,

(48:12):
I see a lot of kids without parents.

Speaker 2 (48:13):
Like I said, there's a lot of parents that are
not in the know of what social media and the
internet is now.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
Yeah, I mean that's on the parents. Though. You were like,
you'd have to say, you take a class. Yeah, well
you don't have to take a class. It's just kind
of some basic knowledge. But you go, hey, you're a
parent in twenty twenty five. You need to keep your
kids safe, both in the real world and in the
online world, and you need to take an active role
in your kid's life, and don't just let them wander
around out there, because there's weirdos and creepers and social

(48:42):
contagions that your kids get caught up in. And as
all of a sudden, they're like identifying with having different
maladies and diseases and stuff, and all of these things
are bad. It's bad for their emotional health, it's bad
for a million things. They should get outside and go
have fun, absolutely, right, absolutely, But the question at the
center of all of it is is it like the

(49:02):
parents that should be responsible, as Seeland is saying, which
I agree with in most cases. Is it the government,
big mama government, big daddy government that should be doing it.
That's where Australia is going. Like you see these kind
of decisions all over the place. Is it personal responsibility,
is it familiar responsibility, or is it governmental responsibility? Those

(49:23):
are the main three options. You go to places like
New York City and you're limited in choices because they
don't think you're smart enough to know that the mega,
super big goal with the handle on it that has
a bathtub full of soda and it is bad for you.
That's I got a big gulp at the New York.
You get the point, right, you get the there's a

(49:44):
lot of these rules. In fact, I think one you
could tie to this was for a very long time.
I think this might still be the case. You couldn't
have forty ounce alcohols in Florida. Yeah, yeah, there's still two. Yeah,
the Florida forty is a thirty two. Because that's a
minor example of governmental intervention and saying like, people won't

(50:06):
solve this problem themselves, so we have this small market
change that will fix it. Silent personal responsibility should be
the key thing here.

Speaker 2 (50:14):
But and I totally agree with you, but I feel
like this is what the government is attempting to do,
to be like, you see, we could still do stuff and.

Speaker 4 (50:21):
We're in charge.

Speaker 2 (50:22):
Where you still find all these other parts of the
Internet where the government maybe should be like, hey, stop
stealing everyone's data and selling it. Maybe don't use these
devices and create some sort of monopoly, but giving no
one any choice when it comes to what they're watching
without paying an insane amount of money, or listening in

(50:46):
or just deceiving people and allowing you to have scammers
that are taking thousands upon hundreds of thousand dollars for people,
but it staid they're like, we're going to stop the
sixteen year olds from going on the internet.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
Well, though I don't disagree with what you're saying, I
think those are problems. If I had a list of
the top ten problems for teenagers online, I wouldn't put
those things even in my top ten. I would say
it's a lot of issues, especially with young women in
particular image issues and body issues and pressures. Socially, I

(51:23):
would say rampant bullying. Like I don't think adults have
any idea what's going on with the level of online
bullying that happens with these younger people. Would the list
of things that I would have, shockingly probably matches up
with the list of reasons that they would say they
should be banning these kids from the internet. But we've

(51:45):
got a lot of dispatches on this, so I want
to get into those at some point in time here.

Speaker 3 (51:48):
Like I said show before, as far as the parent
thing goes, I do plan on, you know, throttling limiting
Jackson's resources as far as is what stuff on the
internet he can get to you send it.

Speaker 1 (52:03):
Down to like a fifty six k not throttle speed.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
But like you know, like blocks certain genres of website
and if he finds a way around them at some point,
I go.

Speaker 1 (52:19):
Yeah, you congratulated, boy. Yeah, let's be real though you're
you're not wrong on that. It is absolutely not only
a possibility. I would suggest it's probably a guarantee that
your kids are indeed, if they're smart, going to find
a work around. But it doesn't mean you should make
it easy for him. That's the that's the part here.

(52:40):
It's involves parenting and making sure your kids are doing okay.
And that's the digital world, the real world and all
of those things.

Speaker 3 (52:48):
Although I do love Sabrina's idea of making the internet
slow for the kids so they so they had the
experience that we had.

Speaker 1 (52:56):
You can you imagine YouTube would suck at dial up speeds.

Speaker 3 (53:00):
Don't even want to do that little cheap, o, cheap,
cheap Amazon tablet that we give the kid. He calls
it an iPad because he's dumb. That thing is painfully slow.
It annoys me.

Speaker 1 (53:13):
Ah, that's a good way, It truly is, because then
you'll discourage them from wanting to do it all together.
So tell us what you think. Send in your dispatches.
How do I how do I record one? Go to
the Newsjunkie dot com hit record, and you'll have a
dispatch on the show in just moments. I'd love to
hear your voice, especially folks who are new to the show. Okay,
let's see a couple of emails coming in tips at

(53:35):
the news Junkie dot Com. Steve emails about Selane's upcoming vasectomy.
I'm not sure if you want this to be more
widespread than it is, but hey, junkies, Seilane, it's your
testicles that are going to hurt, So you might want
to have some frozen peas ready if you're going to
go to work after because you'll need to keep the

(53:55):
swelling down, he said. Steve over on the on the
license or the on the viscondy front on the license
plate front. Mozart emails and said, will the plate law
apply to out of state plates? I wondered about that
because it's a good question.

Speaker 3 (54:13):
It sounds like they're they're like, it can't cover the
word Florida, and there are certain laws that like when
you're driving through a state, if you don't know that
the rules are different, how would you know to change
up what you're doing?

Speaker 1 (54:28):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know that isn't that That's
kind of the problem right there. That's on are the issues.
One of the other things is people are saying, like
somebody sent along the tips at the news junkie dot com,
the Florida sheriffs are saying that their license plate frame
does not violate the Florida statute. Okay, that that you
can't have that. This is the same thing. It's a

(54:52):
frame all the way around the license plate. But it
says we support the Association of Florida Sheriffs. It's a
plate frame. It's not, as far as I see, obscuring
any valuable information, but it is covering the edges of
the license plate. This is the updated law prohibits the
use of a license plate obscuring device. To find there's

(55:13):
any device installed on a vehicle with the intent to
cover obscure letters, numbers, registration decals, or other identifying features.
The Sheriff's license plate frames are not designed to cover
obscure any part of a license plate, do not violate
the new law when installed correctly, So you can still
support the Sheriff's association, they say. But it's it's sort

(55:34):
of a I heard from somebody in chat earlier, and
I think this is a decent idea of where people
are at on this. Somebody had chat's like I heard
about this and went out and used a screwdriver to
take my license plate frame off the other day, And
I said, I still think in twenty twenty five, we
live in a day and age where like one person

(55:56):
out of ten gets their information from some source social media,
local morning news, website, whatever. One person out of ten
gets the information from that source, and then that person
tells people, who tell people, who tell people who tell people,
and it's that sort of a game of telephone. And
so they go, hey, did you hear license plate frames

(56:17):
are all illegal? You go to jail for sixty days.
How is that not going to send people outside with
the screwdriver to go? I don't want to go to jail.
This seems like it sucks. That's bad. So it's going
to have that impact. No matter what I think, you
guys have a screwdriver tomorrow, we all do. We all
have one. Sea lane doesn't happen. I don't think you
don't have a screwdriver. No, I don't think he has

(56:37):
a frame around his license. I don't think.

Speaker 4 (56:38):
I don't know. I couldn't tell you.

Speaker 1 (56:41):
I would have to say I think more cars have
one than not, which is why so many people are
freaking out about that.

Speaker 3 (56:48):
I used to have one of those like clear frames,
like like a window to protect the license plate, and
I got tired of that thing too, and bye.

Speaker 1 (56:58):
That that seems like it would be fine, But I
don't know anymore. Let's go to the airport. At the airport,
there's some very important stuff happening. I just want to
tune in see what's going down here. It looks like
we have Robert Kennedy, we have RFK. Yeah, they're at
the airport, as you might imagine, doing pull ups. Yeah,

(57:19):
pull ups right, wait, pull ups at the airport. He's
in great shape. I don't know why we're doing pull
ups at the airport.

Speaker 3 (57:28):
Oh, he has pre check, so he got through pretty
quickly and he's got some time to kill.

Speaker 1 (57:33):
The thing that sucks is the Sean Duffy guy was
there too, and they're like, hey, Sean Duffy, now, it's
your turn now. And Sean Duffy's like, okay, fine, we're
all doing pull ups now. Oh, this would be this
would be a sad moment for me. I'd be like
Sean Duffy got higher, he got his chin up there.

(57:58):
They said, we need at least three more guys. Can
you fix the problems at the airport. It's a good
thing that all these uh, all these dudes are right
around the corner from the defibrillator. Right you might be needing.

Speaker 2 (58:11):
No one can get to their flight in time because
they've blocked off that entire thing.

Speaker 1 (58:15):
For the pull up contest. Yeah, I just don't know
what is being diverted. I think somebody somebody asked John Duffy,
the Transportation secretary, at some point. They're like, hey, what
can we do about all of the very expensive costs
in the airport, Like getting food at the airport is
really expensive? And he's like, I don't know. All right,
pull up, Tom Danny, here we go. Like I feel

(58:39):
like some people might be distracted here. I think we
might be distracted. Maybe it's because I'm jealous of the
amount of pull ups that they were able to do,
but it's it's hard. Wouldn't even I wouldn't even get
near that thing now, I'm not I'd be like, all right, folks,
we got some work to do. We can't be screwing
around all day. I get out of their real fast
thanks to space code Native for the two gifted secret

(59:02):
shows over on the news junky dot com claim those
while you can go over there to the website thenewsjunkie
dot com click the button claim your subscription right now
when we return. Well, we had a lot of feedback
coming in from you, so we'll get to that. We
got to get to at some point, maybe after Maybe
we'll do it after the next episode. The update on
the Cinnabon worker and Ceilian's got some new details on

(59:23):
how much money has been raised there. A a sheriff
is very very mad. In fact, we'll get to this
angry sheriff and what he's pissed off about. We'll hear
from him. That is coming up next in the News Chunkie.

(59:52):
Don't forget everybody, and I know you haven't, but tomorrow
is our annual bike drive. It is where we try
to reverse all of the bad things that we have
done over the course of the year by doing something
undoubtedly good, and that is to give back to the community.
And there's a lot of kids who aren't as fortunate

(01:00:14):
as many of us were. For Christmases growing up, and
so what we want to do is connect you to
them and allow you through us to do something really good.
We do it every year, so you can bring out
a bike for kids. It could be like little tiny
kid size or you know, like teenager size, and if
the bike's not even put together, don't worry about it.

(01:00:35):
We'll get somebody to put it together. And we've connected
with an organization that gets these bikes to kids who
are in families where they don't have a lot of
resources and money to make their Christmas and literally we.

Speaker 4 (01:00:49):
See them on their bikes without a doubt.

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
In the past, there are a lot of wonderful national
charities that we do know what happened and hopefully they
all went to the great places that we hope they did.
But in the last couple of years, I mean Ceiling
went last year and saw the actual bikes going to
the kids' hands, which is at least something we could

(01:01:13):
vouch for.

Speaker 1 (01:01:14):
Yeah, it's real, it's real, and we really take donation
helmets and we really get your donations into the hands
of these kids that are they're gonna have their their
year turned around by this. So make sure you're hanging
out with us and hopefully participating in the bike drive
that we're doing tomorrow on the show. Okay, a lot

(01:01:34):
of feedback is coming in over at thenewsjunkie dot com,
so that's much appreciated. I'll try to get to a
dispatcher two in just a moment here, including some advice
for se Lane and and it looks like something for
me as well. But we'll see what happens over there.
We have a sheriff upset. The sheriff is pissed off.
You might have heard of him, mister Grady Judd. He's mad.

(01:02:00):
There were some teenagers who robbed the Dick Sporting Goods store.
They went into a Dick Sporting good store and they
robbed the place. They were in town for a football tournament.
And these kids were on like one of the teams.
I guess I think was listen to him.

Speaker 11 (01:02:18):
First and foremost. I want to compliment the Coco Tigers.

Speaker 1 (01:02:22):
They won.

Speaker 11 (01:02:25):
The championship after finishing the season fifteen and zero. It
was the Atlantic Case Youth Athletics Association, and they beat
the Thoroughbreds twenty six to six. I mean they didn't
just beat them, they ran over them. And the Thoroughbreds
were from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. So Coco Tigers, you did it

(01:02:50):
the right way. That's teamwork with great young men doing
the right thing. Now I want to introduce you to
eight of the thorough Bridge Here.

Speaker 1 (01:03:02):
They are the players for the other team. Eight of
them at least got arrested for going in this dick
Sporting goods store and just stealing a whole bunch of stuff.
And I think they stole I think he's gonna mention here,
but like over over one hundred dollars of stuff each.
They were all just going in there together and just

(01:03:23):
stealing as much as they possibly could, not a parent
or guardian in sight, as is the case with almost
all of these situations. Just kids who go in and
do this stuff and they know they're going to slap
on the wrist if they do it, because they're taking
advantage of a lenient society that has allowed this for
far too many years. But now maybe the tide is
turning on that. And they captured them on security footage

(01:03:44):
at Dick's and they busted them, I guess, And.

Speaker 11 (01:03:47):
Here they are. You look at the thorough guys and
you find out what were they doing. What were they
doing on Saturday Morning's second one Dober from.

Speaker 1 (01:04:01):
Like eleven young looking? Yeah, the budget them that are
younger looking, but they're all together. Oh, I mean I
think that they they have video of them stealing this stuff,
but maybe I don't see what else he said.

Speaker 11 (01:04:18):
Where they were staying. They had come from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania,
down to the Dick Sporting good in Podsner Park. Not
only did they uber down there to shop, they had
no intentions of paying for their product.

Speaker 1 (01:04:33):
Why were they to do that?

Speaker 11 (01:04:34):
So they came into the store in two groups and
they begin to systematically steal product.

Speaker 1 (01:04:42):
And that's exactly what they did. They stole, and they stole,
and they stoles. They stole such as of tax dollars.
You're so upset. It's literally the least that the government does.
The guy he unfurled a I don't know his scroll

(01:05:06):
a bad word. They have a plotter? What size printer
do they have here?

Speaker 12 (01:05:13):
This is this is not a.

Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
Normal sized piece of paper that he's printed this out on.
It's a long one and he unfurled it and it
shows all the stuff that they have stolen, which is
it's kind of hard, honestly, for me to see here,
but I can see like, uh, wristbands, and maybe he'll
mention some of the other items here and they stole. Yeah,
how do you like that? That's it?

Speaker 11 (01:05:36):
This is everything that they stole.

Speaker 1 (01:05:39):
It says thoroughbred thieves on top. They did a little photoshop.
It looks like he blew up the menu of a
like a restaurant. It looks like a restaurant menu. He's
got everything listed on here that they stole with the
amount of money that it costs.

Speaker 11 (01:05:59):
And guess what, as we've said before, you can't go
any place anytime that you're not on a camera. True,
So Dick's sporting goods those that they're stealing because they're
watching the systematic organized theft ring called a football team.

Speaker 1 (01:06:21):
I really wonder like there's still adults that are in
charge of these kids if they're in another city for
a football game, Like guys, I wonder why they just
let them all uber to a place by themselves to
go under the guise of going shopping or whatever with
no it doesn't look like there's any supervision with them

(01:06:41):
at all. So like it always seems to bloil down
to that, like no one is watching, No one is watching,
and when no one's watching, the kids do whatever they
want until they run into this and it's like, now
you've got some problems on your hand. Am I supposed
to feel sorry for you? Now?

Speaker 11 (01:06:59):
I'm not only did they still forty seven items? Not
only did they steal forty seven items, but ostensibly they
may have cast their team the championship and the football game,
because I don't know if these all were starters or not.

Speaker 1 (01:07:23):
We were finishers. We arrested them, so this could have
been brutal. This can actually be a great strategic move.
When somebody comes in from out of town to play
your football team, you just arrest.

Speaker 2 (01:07:36):
Get the team arrested, and I mean, who knows. The
local team was like, hey, guys, go to that Dick
Sporting Goods. They're having take whatever you want day absolutely free.

Speaker 1 (01:07:49):
We do have in Florida. It's five finger discount Friday.
It's no one cares, it's it's totally allowed. Go for it. Please.
You have to do it during the day, you know,
Friday Day, Saturdays to move good. It ruined their football game,
and now they got some charges on their hands. These
young kids liftings a bad idea. Kids don't do it.

Speaker 3 (01:08:12):
KATVH brought up a good point on the chat, and
it's that these kids learn the ultimate lesson that you
are in Grady Judd territory and you don't mess with
Grady judds.

Speaker 1 (01:08:23):
Dis yeah, I guess, so yeah, this place didn't like
their visits and unceremoniously booted them all out in handcuffs.
Give us your thoughts and a dispatch over at thenewschunkie
dot com right now when we come back the next
episode with Sabrina. What's coming up on the next episode?

Speaker 4 (01:08:44):

Wow, yeah, you do smell farts. It was thirty one
years ago, nineteen ninety four. We had a firing on
our hands.

Speaker 1 (01:11:30):
Thank god.

Speaker 4 (01:11:30):
That firing done by Bill Clinton and the person being.

Speaker 1 (01:11:35):
Fired the fiery Monica Lewinsky.

Speaker 2 (01:11:38):
No, it was Surgeon General Jocelyn Elders see you lad,
that's saucy lady.

Speaker 1 (01:11:44):
An exciting day in history.

Speaker 4 (01:11:46):
Oh, you better believe it. Do you know why?

Speaker 1 (01:11:49):
Do you know why she was fired?

Speaker 6 (01:11:51):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:11:51):
Okay, being a bitch, not being a bitch.

Speaker 4 (01:11:55):
Fart smeller, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:11:58):
She told a conference that mastering should be discussed in
schools as part of human sexuality.

Speaker 1 (01:12:06):
You can't do that, No, you can't.

Speaker 4 (01:12:08):
Well you can now, and it is part of human sexuality. Everyone.

Speaker 1 (01:12:12):
Why are we teaching sexuality in school though? Huh huh?
Is it because you didn't get taught in school. Oh,
I learned, you try. I went to the School of
hard knocks. You know as much I've learned the knocks. Yeah,
I thought that was a typo. Don't worry about it.
So there you have it.

Speaker 4 (01:12:30):
I don't know what happened to Joscelyn Elders after that.

Speaker 2 (01:12:33):
The Golden Globes, the nominees were ounce congratulations to everyone.

Speaker 4 (01:12:40):
Who is a nominee.

Speaker 1 (01:12:42):
Did we get nominated?

Speaker 4 (01:12:43):
No, neither did.

Speaker 2 (01:12:45):
Sidney Sweeney did not get nominated for all of the
olms that you had in the box office.

Speaker 1 (01:12:52):
But the way is Golden Globes TV or movies? It's
I think it's both. It's one of the ones. It's both.

Speaker 2 (01:12:59):
Yeah, yeah, Sidney Sweeney was at least the rumors had
it that was going to be over the boxing bio
pick Christy and a lot of people thought that she
would be nominated for that. But the Rock did get
nominated for his MMA by pick The Smashing Machine Crazy
One Battle after Another is the big contender, leading all

(01:13:21):
the movies with nine nominations, including Best Drama.

Speaker 1 (01:13:24):
The White Lotus was.

Speaker 2 (01:13:25):
The top TV show with six and speaking of snubs, uh,
The Wicked for Good did not get nominated but.

Speaker 1 (01:13:38):
Came out.

Speaker 2 (01:13:39):
That was gonna be my next point, gentlemen, Wicked for
Good just came out, isn't it out of like the
window oftention?

Speaker 1 (01:13:48):
It should be for next year. I had heard somebody
say that, like the New Avatar movie got nominated, but
I don't think that's true. Like a movie that's not
out can definitely.

Speaker 2 (01:13:56):
Not get it is up for something though, cinematic box
office achievement with woes.

Speaker 1 (01:14:03):
The movie That's Not Out is up for a cinematic
no Wicket for good, Wicket for Good, It's okay.

Speaker 5 (01:14:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:14:09):
Also Best Performance by an Actress in a supporting role,
which Ariana Grande got.

Speaker 1 (01:14:15):
Real okay, Well, then it's got something.

Speaker 2 (01:14:17):
Stranger Things did not land anything in its final season,
so I guess maybe part two will be up for
next year.

Speaker 4 (01:14:25):
The Golden Globes added a podcast category.

Speaker 1 (01:14:29):
This year, so you guys, we are now. We were
not nominated.

Speaker 2 (01:14:36):
They snubbed the true crime genre, and they ignored political shows, which.

Speaker 1 (01:14:41):
Half of podcast three quarters of podcasting Now.

Speaker 2 (01:14:44):
Nominees were mostly celebrity driven shows, which is shocking. Good
hang with Amy Poehler, I do love that though, and SmartLess,
which Sea Lane and sham Love.

Speaker 1 (01:14:55):
Armchair Expert is also up there. This is not a
surprising list for the best podcast. Yeah, and by the way,
I don't blame them for for not putting political stuff
in that. I think that's probably a good idea. You're
never gonna win when you do that. If you go
with like let's say, like Joe Rogan or Ben Shapiro
got nominated, you're gonna have people melt down. Or if

(01:15:17):
you do like Pod Save America or something, you have
people melt down.

Speaker 3 (01:15:21):
What is the only two I don't know on this
list is the Mel Robbins podcast You ever heard of?

Speaker 4 (01:15:28):
Oh, that's Let Them or something, and my mom loved it.

Speaker 1 (01:15:33):
Up first Up first is MPR okay Now it's like
a daily news round up kind of thing.

Speaker 2 (01:15:40):
Or maybe the podcasts that we love or nominees that
we love were actually announced and unfortunately we didn't know
they were announced because Marlon Wayans was givings had announcement.
He is now being butchered online for butchering the names
of those nominated for the twenty twenty six Golden Globes.
And I sent you the link. Please start at eight

(01:16:03):
thirty eight on the YouTube because it is a thirty
three minute ceremony.

Speaker 1 (01:16:07):
Okay, hang on, I'm sorry now one of them.

Speaker 2 (01:16:10):
I will be completely transparent if given the card there
in front of me, I don't know if I would
absolutely nail Ludwig Goronson's name.

Speaker 1 (01:16:20):
It's not easy.

Speaker 4 (01:16:21):
Ready about Marlon Marlin after you?

Speaker 1 (01:16:26):

Speaker 4 (01:18:49):

Speaker 1 (01:18:52):

Speaker 1 (01:19:33):
Night before Christmas?

Speaker 2 (01:19:34):
This is the story of the Birth of Jesus, Okay,
and then some context historical and biblical experts.

Speaker 1 (01:19:44):
I want to start a fight about this right now.
This is a bad time.

Speaker 4 (01:19:47):
Fine, You'll have plenty of fighting time in hell, that's true.

Speaker 1 (01:19:52):
If I'm wrong, Boy, am I wrong? Yeah? Yeah, It's
not gonna be a good one for me. Let's go
to Buenos Aire real quick, if you guys don't mind,
because right now they're trying to set a world record
and it is quite adorable. The world record underway for
the most golden retrievers in one park at the time.

(01:20:15):
If only Amy Kawfelt could have brought her dog out there.
It's an entire park full of adorable golden retrievers, large small,
that would be sizes that killed.

Speaker 2 (01:20:28):
It's so I love Golden Retrievers, but top three dogs
I'm most allergic too.

Speaker 1 (01:20:33):
Oh yeah, they got a lot of hair. These dogs
have two seconds.

Speaker 3 (01:20:37):
What happens if one of your dogs like gets out
of its leash at this festival and you're like, I
gotta climb a Golden Retriever.

Speaker 4 (01:20:43):
And then you say the name and turns out of
those have the same name.

Speaker 1 (01:20:47):
By oh, son of a bitch, there's a lot of
it out here. Oh it was. They're breaking the record
of one thousand, six and eighty five Golden Retrievers. That's
what they're up to right now. And now I know
which that one's mine. I know it's the dirty one.
This one'sn't a mud puddle out there, just kind of
recking things up. That is fun and adorable. I like it.

Speaker 3 (01:21:10):
Well, so seeing that footage is super adorable. But that's
the first thing that comes in my head is like, well,
what if mine gets lost? And I'm just like looking
at a sea of dogs that all are supposed to
look the same. Like years ago when my friend worked
at Universal and worked in the parking structures, Yeah, they did,
like an April fool's fun thing where they parked all

(01:21:33):
the white cars in the same place. They like, as
soon as they saw a white car, they directed it
to this floor, and all the white cars were on
that floor. And I was like, if I had a
rental that I wasn't used to driving that was a
white car, I'd be like, what the hell is this?

Speaker 1 (01:21:51):
Yeah, I could see why that would stack up for
these people. Got them though. We're gonna take a quick break.
I put, by the way, the Golden Retriever Festival on
Sea it now if you want to take a look
and get some eyebleach, that's available before you over on
the CNAW section of the Neewsjunkie dot Com. Back with Moron,
what's happening in Australia and the Cinnabon worker Lady. We're
going to talk about that some new details on her.

(01:22:14):
Is one of the when mega viral yesterday. What's happening now?
That is coming up next on the News Junkie. In Kenosha, Wisconsin,

(01:22:39):
there is a situation that has like all the media
that's covering it, they don't know what to do. Arrest. Yeah,
it is okay, so in that area enough that that's
related to this in any way, but in that area,
there is a story that happened in the news. Media
just doesn't know what to do with themselves. I was
talking with chat during the break on this You could
peek inside the studio and hang out for the whole

(01:22:59):
show over on YouTube dot com Slash the News Junkie
joined the crowd over there. I'd encourage you to do so.
YouTube dot com Slash the News Junkie, and I was
talking about this father of three kids, and this is
the story in front of me. It says, Wisconsin father
Joshua Cannon is his name, K A N N I N.

(01:23:21):
And you'll see in a moment why they don't exactly
know how to cover this story. I think people feel
bad about it, and I don't blame them for feeling bad,
but I have some judgment here. So this father of
three kids, he wakes up, I guess in the middle
of the night, and his place is on fire. And
the father goes, oh my god, the house is on fire,

(01:23:44):
and he runs out the front of the house. And
he said, after waking up and seeing the fire, he
panicked and like George Costanza, he just ran out the
front door. Now he's left all of his kids behind.
And then he's said when he walked out the front
door after panicking, he could hear his kids inside the house.

(01:24:07):
Oh my, I don't know how kids his kids just
for the record, ten nine and seven years old. All right,
that's horrible. It skipped a year, ten nine and seven
years old, these little kids. I'm looking at him right now.
And once he once he left at the kids died

(01:24:29):
in the house. The father ran out and he left them,
and then they said he could hear them and he
could see that the kids were still back inside. I mean,
I don't know the farther it's too dangerous. And what
I said during the break, which I stand by one
thousand percent, I've never met a single mom in my
life who wouldn't have ripped the door from its hinges,

(01:24:50):
who wouldn't have found a strength from I don't know where.
I don't know where this comes from, but picked that
the place up just completely roted lamp.

Speaker 4 (01:25:00):
They would not have run out of that.

Speaker 1 (01:25:01):
House first, maybe not to run out, and the fathers
that would have to run out and not even think like,
oh yeah, that's right, I have three kids inside this house.
That's horrible. He says in the hospital with their daughter,
who later died. The Jordan Feesby says she had dropped
the kids off at her dad's place. Hours later she

(01:25:24):
had learned that there was a fire and that her
daughter had been hospitalized. In the hospital with her daughter,
who later died, she said she asked them you wouldn't
grab the kids first, and she says things weren't adding up.
They told police said around nine pm to the kids
went to sleep on the second floor. He went to
bed about an hour later. His daughter was awake inside

(01:25:45):
the room, they said. When he woke a short time later,
the officials were responding to the fire around eleven o'clock.
He said his eyes felt cloudy, and when he went downstairs,
he saw a little fire on the kitchen floor, so
he panicked and walked out the front door himself. He thought,
I have to get help. Then he went to bang
on the neighbor's door and he yelled at his kids

(01:26:08):
to come downstairs. I opened the door and I heard
my kids. I tried to go back in, but the
smoke just came at me and I couldn't see, so
I had to turn back around. When I opened the door,
it made it even worse, he said. He said, prior
to going to bed, he had a cigarette in the
kitchen by the sink, but he thought he'd put that
out before going to bed. Could have been Yeah. When
first responders arrived, they found these kids.

Speaker 3 (01:26:29):
Unfortunately, the cigarettes don't start house fires anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:26:33):
Well they didn't. They don't know. They're examining the possibility
of arson. They're examining the possibility of potential homicide. They're
looking at this up and down. I just you, guys
know a lot of people with kids. Cazilian as a
kid right now. For God's sake, I don't know anybody
that would ever fire is in the house, and your

(01:26:56):
first response is not to get every single thing that
you love out of that house. I guess that is.

Speaker 4 (01:27:05):
I don't think there's a lot of stuff that could
stop me.

Speaker 1 (01:27:07):
And I'm not just saying it.

Speaker 2 (01:27:08):
I've never been in that situation, so maybe things would
change that would not have even kids.

Speaker 1 (01:27:14):
I don't know, I would not try to get them out.
If you were outside of your house, you wake up,
there's a fire, you're outside of your house. What I'm
getting my thing?

Speaker 4 (01:27:25):
We sure that I already know, and I'm getting a
bug out.

Speaker 1 (01:27:27):
Bag, and little Carl is inside as you run outside
in your house already in the and Carl is like, whoa,
Carl's area crying right, he's crying, even for my pets.

Speaker 2 (01:27:42):
You would have to restrain me with multiple people to
not go and grab Carl, but he would be out already,
and so with the cats.

Speaker 1 (01:27:51):
I may sound like somebody like pounding my chest after this,
like Monday morning quarterback kind of stuff. I don't care.
I really mean this from the bottom of my soul.
I would rather die in the fire than have my
children perish. As I sat outside, I'm like, oh good,
this is hot in there, quite smoky, insane.

Speaker 2 (01:28:13):
I saw a small fire in the kitchen, so I
ran outside to get help. That doesn't make sense.

Speaker 4 (01:28:20):
The small.

Speaker 1 (01:28:22):
Exactly.

Speaker 4 (01:28:23):
You gotta think you got buggets? You said, know where
your fire thing, which there is?

Speaker 1 (01:28:28):
See what else we can learned about this again? The
father's name was Joshua Cannon, Joshua k n n I N.
And the mother, I guess Joshua k A n n
I N. You skipped the a last time. I was like,
that's a weird name. No, No, Joshua k A N

(01:28:48):
N I n is the guy, and Mom says things
just aren't adding up. I don't disagree. I think she's
got a point there. I think there's something to it.
All right, let's go over to the cinema on employee.
She went on a style a mouth racist ramp and
it was megaviral over the weekend. She got fired by Cinnabon,

(01:29:11):
who didn't want to stand up for their workers in
this case. Unbelievable. She got fired by Cinnabon. Obviously she
did about eleventy things in this video that were clearly
fireable defenses. And you know, then afterwards she ended up
with I think GoFundMe that was shut down, but then

(01:29:32):
it moved over onto this secondary site that people use
when it's too hot for GoFundMe. And like you get
straight up race for anything you give some show. Yeah,
they're like, we want to make money, so donate for
whatever reasons. Over here, let's check in with the donation ceiling.
I think you said you had that site up.

Speaker 3 (01:29:54):
Yeah, there was two different donations going on, right, and
one of them was for the victim. It says my cousin,
Farhia Ahmed is the victim in this incident, and I
am raising this GoFundMe to help with her legal fees
and lawyer costs.

Speaker 1 (01:30:09):
Don't know why she needs legal fees. Did she sue somebody? Yeah,
unless she was suing Cinnabon when you sue Cinnamon's being
cool about this. They fired the lady. They said, we
don't like what she did. She doesn't align with our values.
May I mean even somebody for calling you the N
word or even though, by the way, we do not
know if we do not know what happened before this

(01:30:31):
video or whatever, we don't know, you know, what led
to all of this. But there's nothing that I've seen
that indicates that they thought the people who are being
yelled at by this lady at Cinnabon were we're doing
something illegal. I haven't seen anything about that, so I
don't know why they would need an attorney. But what
else is it said?

Speaker 3 (01:30:50):
It says context of the incident, so it kind of
describes their.

Speaker 1 (01:30:56):
Side of the story.

Speaker 3 (01:30:57):
At least my cousin and her husband, a black Somali
Muslim couple. We're out shopping to decide to get a
quick treat from Cinnabon. As soon as they proached the counter,
they could tell the atmosphere was not welcoming at all
because the worker worker's facial expression and attitude. My cousin
ordered this something caramel picon sinnemon roll. Workers squeeze the caramel,
she barely put any. My cousin kindly asked if she
could add more, and also asked if they were running low.

(01:31:21):
The workers she was guys out of this stuff, said
she'd warm the camel a little bit because she didn't
want it to be hot and hurt hands. Then, completely unprovoked,
she said, you could see me squeezing it through that
witchcraft banana you're wearing on top of your head.

Speaker 1 (01:31:36):
Okay, because they had like Somalian headdresses on or something.
As I was going on, I guess so, yeah, I
think there was even more in terms of the interaction.
But what's what's that side the people that she yelled at,
what's their fundraiser?

Speaker 3 (01:31:51):
Apt They want forty five thousand dollars and they have
raised six forty seven dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:31:58):
Not great, it's a little low six thousand dollars. What's
the other one? What's the for the racist lady who
was screaming out a bunch of stuff the give send go.

Speaker 3 (01:32:06):
I think Give Send Go has some sort of setup
where when you reach your goal, either they're upping the
goal themselves, like the people, or it just automatically does
it for you. Because this is not what the goal
was yesterday. But the goal today is two hundred and
seventy three dollars. Oh, they've really up the amount they

(01:32:31):
looking for.

Speaker 1 (01:32:31):
Yeah, and they've raised one hundred and thirty three thousand
dollars of it. Oh, God, forget the lottery. Just starts
screaming out racial stuff with people. Just racist things that
a cinnabontle do it for you? Ain't that something?

Speaker 3 (01:32:45):
Not gonna have friends to spend it with either, so
you could really just hold.

Speaker 1 (01:32:48):
On to them running. I guess you have racist friends
you could spend it with. How was it so sweet
last week that everybody was donating money to the old guy? Well,
I have an update on him later too. I think
the old guy who was eighty eight and still working
and everybody was donating money to him, and then this
week it's this. I think this woman has some major
major problems going on. There was another video that TMZ released,

(01:33:11):
and I think it was her yelling at a different person. Yes,
the same lady. This may be the same coming. Yeah,
just from sebody further back. All it's hard to hear,

(01:33:34):
but she's this is from further away in the food
court where you can see the Cinnabon worker yelling at
this couple here and now. There's a lot of stories
about her. Who is Crystal Wilsey, the Cinnabon employee that
was fired over this whole thing. Newsweek says Wilseie's criminal
record oh includes charges for disorderly conduct and drug possession.

(01:33:59):
According to public records, she was charged with endangering children
in February twenty twenty two, but that case was later dismissed.
She was also charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated
that month, but that charge was also.

Speaker 4 (01:34:12):
Drug Said to bomb you background.

Speaker 1 (01:34:15):
Checks, Willsie is from Monominee, Michigan, and studied it at
a place called Post University, a private college in Connecticut.
She seems to have been a Democratic Party supporter, says Newsweek,
sharing a photo of for Biden Harris sign I guess
it says woman's choices on the ballot on some of

(01:34:36):
her posts. Meanwhile, a fundraiser, Oh, this is give Sango
is a Christian crowdfunding website I hadn't heard the Christian
thing before has raised more than ninety thousand dollars. Yeah,
so that's what we know about her so far. You know,
to pick your poison on who you want to blame.

(01:34:56):
I think this is a person who either has severe
addiction issues or is like spiraling mentally in public. And
so often we just see like the video and we
see twenty seconds of whatever, and we we roll with
it because we you know, you don't want to see
like these kind of outbursts in public. You don't want
to believe or some people will do.

Speaker 4 (01:35:15):
Those twenty seconds were pretty rushing.

Speaker 1 (01:35:17):
So some people to some people want to believe a
lot of people, in fact, want to believe that this
is just how America is, which I think is rubbish
and bird brain. But there are a lot of people
who see this they're like that, there you go, That's
how it is. That's that's how it's the reason why
it's filmed, the reason why it goes viral, the reason
why it gets all the attention is because it is
the anomaly. It is the anomaly in a circumstance like this.

(01:35:38):
What I'm saying is and a lot of these circumstances.
It's not just some like regular person who just happens
to be fired up because they saw a bunch of
racist videos online. No, I think in a lot of cases,
the people at the center of this are they got
lots of problems. They got lots and lots of problems.
And the video that went viral with them say in

(01:35:59):
the N word is just the beginning of it. You
want to see a rabbit hole. I wasn't. According to
a rap sheet what it was just the beginning of
the problem. Well, she's an alcoholic, she's a drug addict,
she's got she's got a lot of problems that are
clear just from her record alone. But I know one
video that's a great example of what's happening here. You
guys may have never seen this. I don't know if

(01:36:20):
it's like off your radar. There's a famous viral video
of a man on a plane shouting the N word
over and over again, and he's wearing a Burger King crown. Yes,
familiar viral viral video of this guy. And people saw
this went megaviral. They're like, get this along with it,

(01:36:41):
say it or anything like that. Oh, I don't know,
he was just saying the N word. He was wearing
the Burger King crown and saying the N word a
whole bunch of times. And then when somebody did an
actual deep dive on this guy, he was a schizophrenic
person who had been having a public breakdown over social
media for an incredibly long time, who went to go

(01:37:03):
meet his black internet girlfriend in Jamaica or something, but
it turned out that it was a scam and he
got stuck because he's lost all of his money, and
then tried to get the flight back in the US
embassy play paid for his flight back, and the only
money he had was to go to Burger King to eat,
and he got the crown and put the crown on
and got on the airplane, and then the video was filmed,

(01:37:24):
and it's like life is more complicated it is. There's
a lot more to it that we sometimes imagine. But
give us your thoughts on this whole thing. It's it's
gross to me that the grossest part is the people
giving money, you know, the people giving money to somebody
because they like shouted the N word in public. That's

(01:37:45):
the most vile part of it to me in particular.
But tell us what you think. Send a dispatch over
at thenewsjunkie dot com. Okay, to your feedback next. I
promised it, but really haven't gotten to a lot of it.
A hugely controversial Commercerchel that's starting to make the rounds.
We'll get to that as well. Jury Duty is loaded up,
and that's all this hour. That's all coming up next.

(01:38:07):
I'm gonna use Chunky. We'll get to your dispatches momentarily.
I also want to talk about I think Sabrin and

(01:38:29):
Celina both been wanting to talk about this firefest comeback
thing that kind of spun out and went wrong. So
we'll talk about that a little bit in the second here.
If you've guys got if you have some thoughts on that.
But I keep seeing stories about how drones are appearing
like crazy over prison yards, and they said, this is

(01:38:53):
only getting worse and worse and worse. And a lot
of people will report that if you live near a
prison late at night, if you go out in your backyard,
he's totally quiet. You just hear all the drones that
are just flying over the prison yard and dropping the
drugs and and the drugs are one thing. The drugs

(01:39:17):
are one thing that they're they're dropping. But the story
that I saw today, I was like, oh, they're just
having a field day with these drones. Here's ABC News
and the story says that a drone was caught at
the Lee Correctional Institute prison yard a couple of weeks
before Christmas. This drone in question was found dropping steak, weed,

(01:39:47):
crab legs, and cigarettes clegs.

Speaker 4 (01:39:50):
That sounds perfect.

Speaker 1 (01:39:53):
It was a nice little drop. It was dropping all
kinds of stuff. They call it contrab and Christmas and
they were dropping many different things. Drone drops steak crab
legs for prisoner feast, but the guards find it first.
They said, at this place, God, I gotta try to

(01:40:16):
see if I can find this drone. Steak there was
because there was a photo of this, but the ABC
News article doesn't really show it that well, Uh, this
is some idiot doing. Oh here it is. Here's some
of the hall. It's got crab legs, old baysauce was
dropped by the drone, A carton of Marlboro cigarettes, a

(01:40:39):
carton of some other kind of cigarettes.

Speaker 4 (01:40:42):
That's just one cluster. That is one person's crab.

Speaker 13 (01:40:47):
Right, This is all meat, steak it's all feasts for
these folks wondering, and the drone was dropping this and
then so they said, over most major prisons in the
United States, if you just get quiet here, the sound
of all the drone propeller.

Speaker 1 (01:41:04):
Is the steak cooked? I don't know, somebody doesn't look
like it. This isn't something called a juke bag. O.
That's weed. That's weed. That's like vacuum packed weed.

Speaker 4 (01:41:18):
That's a lot of weed.

Speaker 1 (01:41:19):
Oh, the steak is not cooked. That's the steak. The
way to cook some stuff in there. Yeah, but do
they have a plate way to refrigerate it?

Speaker 4 (01:41:27):
No, that that was supposed to be dinner that night.

Speaker 1 (01:41:29):
Actually, yeah, we must have, like you got to eat
this thing fast, real real quick. So or alternatively, I
don't want to throw the cops off if they're really
trying to find out who is behind this drone thing.
But maybe was that guy that was handing out all
the machetes and alcohol and that stuff to the I
don't know if he's now doing this and giving the

(01:41:51):
prisoners all sorts of goodies behind bars. But that's what
they were up to when they got caught dropping those.
I'll put this up on see it now so you
could take a look at the hall that they captured
outside of this prison, and they were saying that this
is just pretty commonplace. Any of you who work in
corrections at like a corrections facility, let me know, I'd

(01:42:13):
love to hear what kind of dealings you have with drones,
because I've heard that it's all too common now, Like
not a week goes by where there's not some incident
where somebody tries to fly some stuff and drop it
in the corner of the yard. Drone caught over prison,
all right, and this is going to be up on

(01:42:34):
see it now. Take a look at it on the
website at thenewsjunkie dot com and you'll see that drone
prison hall right there. Let's talk about the Firefest thing.
It wasn't called Firefest, right, it's a scene that pace.

Speaker 6 (01:42:49):
No.

Speaker 1 (01:42:49):
Yeah, it wasn't supposed to be like a massive music festival.
It wasn't. It definitely wasn't, so they succeeded in not
having as many people.

Speaker 2 (01:43:00):
It was very strange because it was Billy McFarlane that
started popping up with my TikTok first where he's like,
you guys talked all that crap well, it's happening, launching
Phoenix in just four days.

Speaker 4 (01:43:12):
You better get on it or pay for this live stream.
And then the day came.

Speaker 2 (01:43:18):
Unfortunately, my FYP gave you the blessings of other people
who paid for the live stream, like six ninety nine
to watch this mask go down.

Speaker 3 (01:43:27):
And I saw so many people who paid for the
live stream. But sort of like the Tesla owners who
have the sticker that says I bought this before Elon
went crazy, they were all making sure all their followers
knew I only got this for research purposes?

Speaker 1 (01:43:45):
Is this real what I'm looking at here? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:43:47):
So it was in what a hund happened on Gouch Island,
That's what they called it. That's right out, Doris. And
there were I think like just four hundred.

Speaker 1 (01:43:58):
People supposed to max out at four hundred people.

Speaker 4 (01:44:02):
And there were.

Speaker 2 (01:44:06):
Moments in which things weren't working, like microphones in particular.

Speaker 1 (01:44:12):
The stage looks it also.

Speaker 2 (01:44:15):
Not fireproof, like one wrong thing and that bad boys
going up in flames.

Speaker 1 (01:44:22):
Yeah, it's not great.

Speaker 3 (01:44:23):
Oh my gosh, it would be hilarious if I hit
the wrong one. It would be hilarious if the Phoenix
Festival turned into a Fire Festival.

Speaker 1 (01:44:32):
Because Rising, I sent you half.

Speaker 2 (01:44:37):
I'm still working on it on the other half of
the highlights that I found off TikTok, trying to edit
it because they were crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:44:46):
But I see this, this video from Billy mcfarloe is
like the best looking one for him. So you can
see there is seems to be the headliner. Okay, yeah,
so but it still does not look like the busiest
of that. Let me see what you said. Did you
send it to me? Yeah, that's the first half. I'm
working on the second as we speak.

Speaker 3 (01:45:05):
French Montana is the headliner, and then Ray Shimmered, Slim
Jimmy and Bobby Schmerda.

Speaker 1 (01:45:11):
I've heard of him.

Speaker 2 (01:45:12):
Yeah, Bobby, we actually watched him try to stage dive
off an Okachobe festival stage and falls.

Speaker 1 (01:45:21):
Remember a lot of Ooby festivals.

Speaker 3 (01:45:24):
Coco Robert never heard of the rest of the people
with the smaller font never heard of Coco Robert, firm
McQueen floor, Connie kay.

Speaker 4 (01:45:32):
I heard of so Connie kay, I think is the
first video that is it right here? Look at this thing?

Speaker 1 (01:45:50):
How did it go? Did you tell me?

Speaker 6 (01:45:53):
Rising?

Speaker 1 (01:45:54):
That is not what he said?

Speaker 6 (01:45:55):
He said it went fine and I'm even telling him
to stop being humble man, because this thing was lit lit.

Speaker 12 (01:46:01):
This guy's the most popular guy on the island right now.

Speaker 1 (01:46:04):
Who is your favorite performance? They all they all went
hamd You know. It started with Slim over delivered, Bobby
over delivered, Fresh Fortanna over delivered. It was like back
to back to back. Man, listen to is my sound
open a little bit?

Speaker 12 (01:46:21):
Well?

Speaker 1 (01:46:21):
They not understanding what I'm saying. Oh no, I need
everybody in this shot to come a little bit closer
to the stage. Please come a little bit close. We
will have a good shod I was listening to whoever
mixed this, I mean, I don't know whoever. Sounds like crap.

Speaker 3 (01:46:36):
The mix sounds like uh it was a startup that
that gave Billy a good price on getting this live
stream going, because it doesn't sound like you could.

Speaker 1 (01:46:46):
Hear the crowd. Yikes, Yeah, it wasn't. That's not a
great rem There wasn't a giant crowd either. What was
what was anybody expecting anyways? The fire Fast Guy. For
God's sake, why did anybody even buy it at a
thousands of dollars.

Speaker 7 (01:46:59):
To do that?

Speaker 1 (01:47:00):
What percentage of the people that were at this festival
were content creators, you know what I mean, looking to
make another viral. We went the fire We went to
Firefest too. I didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:47:12):
It was just that dude in a towel who was
doing all the live stream either from Firefest or what
someone was filming him, or he was going live like
selfie style, and one of the employees, the name of
the hotel also went with like S the S word,
and the employee didn't realize he was on this guy's

(01:47:33):
live stream and he called his hotel crap, No, no,
please delete that.

Speaker 1 (01:47:38):
I'm like, it's live next. They weren't fighting wild dogs
this time, so that's one upgrade. They weren't fighting wild dogs.

Speaker 3 (01:47:47):
Packs of wild I did see a picture of and
they said, don't bully him, Like, don't bully I did
see a picture of one of the DJ's food that
albeit was vegetarian, but it was like it looked just
as bad as the Firefest food.

Speaker 1 (01:48:05):
It was like a little pile of rice and like
a corn on the cop that looked like it was
not warm at all. Jesus man, what a disaster stops
like success?

Speaker 7 (01:48:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:48:17):
Uh, it was just a massive hit for all involved.
We're going to take a quick break, friends, because we're
going to come back with a loaded up Jury Duty.
That's right. We'll talk about a lot of things, give
you updates on a bunch of stories we've been following,
give you the whole roundup in Jury Duty. Got some
clips to get into, got some dispatches to get into.

(01:48:40):
And that's before we get into the Power Hour, the
final hour of the show. It's all coming up next
on the news. Chunky, I've seen iheartstock taken off, baby,

(01:49:06):
it's massive. I told you this stock was down to
ninety eight cents, and I said, look, I'm not here
to be a roaring kitty for iHeart stock, but maybe
I am. Bye bye bye bye bye. Not in the
insinc way like actual purchase purchase, purchase, purchase purchase. It

(01:49:27):
was ninety eight cents, and I think today it's it's
a ihr t. Let me bring this up here. Four
dollars and forty four cents the iartstock is. I mean,
I'm telling you this was so undervalued, it's a sin.
If you just listen to me, you quatted, you four XD,

(01:49:47):
you four xed your money. We're going higher, baby, We're
going higher. It's weird that I have to be company
man here because the stock that I'm rooting for just
so happens to be the company that pays the bills
around here, even the reason why I'm doing it. But
I just still think, you know, I like the company.
I like the stock. I think it's a good stock,

(01:50:09):
and it's up four hundred percent since I started mentioning that.
I think it's got more legs from here. But I'm
not a financial expert by any means. I'm just a
guy who's four x to his money on IHRT stock.
I you, so, let's keep going. No, I still got
some uhh, No, I have in two different accounts. I

(01:50:32):
have iHeart stock. I've been I've been buying it on
the side for sure. I don't know where this is
going to end up, maybe at nose Dives, but I
want to be the roaring kitty for iheartstock. So purchase purchase,
purchased by bye bye. Maybe we can go even higher
from here. Let's wrap up a thing we were chronicling.

(01:50:52):
The old dude, old man river, eighty eight year old guy.
What was his name, Ed something? Ed Bambas, Yes, yeah,
Ed Bombas. He is the veteran, the guy who lost
his job at GM and his wife died and he
was working at a grocery store and some Instagram guys
saw him and people started raising money, and they weren't

(01:51:13):
telling the old man. They weren't telling the eighty year
old man, and then it went so viral. They didn't
tell him nothing. No, they didn't say like, hey, we
were a millionaire now, and just finally this weekend they
told him. So, I've got some of the footage and
this is them coming down the hallway. They got the
big giant paper check or whatever. Hugs he hugs the

(01:51:37):
Instagram guy. Your wife is looking over your shoulder. I
let me see. I could pump this up a little bit.
I know is far away from the microphone. I thought
they're going to make it to two mil. One point
seven to seven million is on the check. I don't
know if or if they shut it down at one
point seven to seven million, but they have at Oskin
at that and you still have about four hundred dollars gave.

(01:52:02):
Everyone's supporting the room. I want to reveal that this
is one of.

Speaker 6 (01:52:06):
The largest individual fundraiser and go funding this streak.

Speaker 1 (01:52:10):
And yeah, if you want you will be able to retire?
Just raised to one.

Speaker 6 (01:52:18):
Point seven seven million dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:52:23):
Oh he's shaking, Yeah, we do good God, he's crying.
What if he does croaked?

Speaker 2 (01:52:33):
Also, woo'st wearing a body cam when he has so
many cameras around him.

Speaker 1 (01:52:39):
He's trying to get more footage for him.

Speaker 4 (01:52:41):
That's good double gin underneath that's.

Speaker 1 (01:52:45):
Seven million dollars, which is pretty damn impressive. It's at
one point nine. I'm gonna go fund me. It's still yeah, okay,
so still going thank you.

Speaker 6 (01:52:54):
I know it's unbelievable and I'm unbelieve it.

Speaker 1 (01:53:00):
I know, but it's completely real.

Speaker 6 (01:53:03):
So we're gonna sort at you know, the best way
to get his joy bumbis done for us.

Speaker 1 (01:53:08):
And there there's a worthwhile thing. That's a fine thing.
I got no problem with that. They gave him some money.
How much cocaine is he buying? He's like, yeah, here
we go. I couldn't blame him. Live your life at
enjoy the years you have. And I don't necessarily believe
that he didn't know that it was over a million dollars.

(01:53:30):
I think he definitely knew. Is this Perhaps it's gotta
be a weird feeling for this guy's son because your
eighty eight year old dad just got almost two million bucks.
Uh huh here, and you're like trying to push him
a little further, like to scare him.

Speaker 8 (01:53:52):
Dad.

Speaker 1 (01:53:53):
Do you want to go out and have a really
fatty meal tonight to celebrate? I mean it, Why do
I start drinking? Dad? Hard? Grill? Been helping him all
that much?

Speaker 2 (01:54:08):
Because I could be like I was at Walmart trying
to live after my son helped me with nothing.

Speaker 1 (01:54:17):
Eighty eight years old. That's good enough at eighty eight
to last him the rest of his life, though, Yeah,
for sure, one point seven million you can. You can
get over the finish line with that, for sure. All right,
let's get the hell out.

Speaker 13 (01:54:28):
Of here we go.

Speaker 1 (01:54:29):
Let's do jerry duty. Court is now in session, so
put your phone down and pay attention before we call
the bailiff over to whip your ass. You're knowing jury
duty with the news junkie, you're gonna say today I
learned get out of here, as in get out of
get out of this topic. Yeah, let's move on to
the new thing, which is jury duty. Everybody injured on

(01:54:53):
the go, just Calmo eight hundred Camo, eight hundred Calmo,
or go to JUSTCALLMO dot com. The website is easy
to find, as you just heard, but you can pick
up the phone after an accident, yourself, your friend, your mom,
your dad, somebody who needs some help, be the person
who steps up and says, I know who you need
to call eight hundred call MO or just callm dot com.

(01:55:18):
A crazy story, and it goes to something that I
tell you about all the time on this show. I
believe that we have enough money, enough resources, and the
ability to solve many of the problems that plague us
as Americans. Things that you've just been told are a
part of life that don't need to be, and one

(01:55:39):
of them is the rates of crime that we see
in this country. I have told you, and you can go.
I would encourage you to look this up on your
own to verify what I'm saying with anything else, But
the vast majority is of crimes in any city are
committed by repeat offenders, people who don't just get arrested one, two, three, four, five,
six times, but doesn't of times they get arrested over

(01:56:02):
and over and over. Judges and prosecutors are lenient with them.
Time after time after time after time after time, they
send them back into your neighborhood. They send them into
your neighborhood to torture you and everybody else because they
don't have to deal with these people. Here's yet another example.
I don't know the band Room full of Blues, but
I guess they were big in the nineteen eighties. And

(01:56:23):
a man named Roderick McLeod, seventy years old, a member
of the band Room Full of Blues in the eighties
who received a Grammy nom for his work with them
and was inducted into the Rhode Island Music Hall of
Fame in twenty fourteen, has died. He was hit and
killed by a driver. This is the woman who ran
into him here allegedly at the crime scene. And this

(01:56:46):
woman has more than one hundred more than one hundred
arrests and dozens of traffic violations. This lady, this guy
was out peacefully walking his dogs on Saturday when he
was hit by Shannon Godbout forty one years old, and
he was driving bike. Yeah, should have seen him. This

(01:57:10):
was the middle of the day. She crashed into a
pole and hit this guy. She was traveling eastbounds. She
left her lane and hit several objects, including two telephone poles.
He was walking his dogs on the shoulder of the
road when he was hit. And this woman is just
here at the scene, looks all sorts of messed up,
because that's the kind of person she is. She's been
arrested over one hundred times. She has dozens of traffic violations.

(01:57:34):
What do we do with these people? Right back out there, baby,
right back out there. Let's let the fish go again.
Let's let the fish go until they create the problem
that's big enough, and then we keep them forever. It's
such an easy problem to solve. We don't need to
catch and release as much as we do when somebody
has been arrested this many times. This woman is an

(01:57:56):
absolute pariah on all of society to begin with, but
then just a demon to anybody who comes in in
contact with her. And now because of all the decisions,
including hers of course right that led to this, but
the other adults that just kept giving her chance after
chance after chance. Now this dude is deed with a

(01:58:18):
capital D, unfortunately for him. So should we just keep
doing this? I'll just let you ask yourself over and
over and over. Vote for the people who allow this
stuff to happen over and over and over. Nobody makes
these changes when they absolutely could. I'll have to save
the rest of these because we do have to quick break.
We have an update. I know you guys have been waiting.

(01:58:38):
We have an update on our man John Hale, who
has been going on the Cars ride over. Oh, I
know you wanted more for the man who's going on
the Car's theme park ride over and over and over again.
Fifteen thousand. Right, we'll peek in. We'll see what's happening

(01:58:59):
in his world. Came with this legend that's coming up
next to the news Junkie. Not long ago we talked

(01:59:22):
about on the show how the louver was robbed in
broad daylight by a bunch of seemingly a bunch of amateurs.

Speaker 4 (01:59:30):
They just went super easy.

Speaker 1 (01:59:32):
They put an add out online and they said that
they need it needed a lift for rent to help
them to move in an apartment. Apparently that's pretty normal
in Paris. There's a lot of like walk ups and
when you're moving let's say you're moving a couch or something,
they'll get these lifts on the street outside of the
apartment and then they'll try to bring it in through

(01:59:54):
the outside, because they don't have elevators, and a lot
of the old buildings in Paris, it.

Speaker 2 (01:59:57):
Makes sense kind of a bitch to carry that in
a narrow staircase. Then amazoned a couple of reflective vests
and hard hats easy enough, so they.

Speaker 1 (02:00:08):
Put out that fake ad, and then when the people
showed up with the lift, they stole it and they
use that and these hard hats and all this stuff.
They go in broad daylight to the Lover the busiest
museum on planet Earth. They go up to the second
floor or whatever. They open up a window, they walk
in with their clipboards and stuff, break open this display

(02:00:28):
with the Crown jewels and take one hundred million dollars
worth of jewels. Right the security is finally alerted to this.
I think the security was alerted almost exactly the same
time that somebody on the street outside called the police.
Somebody on the street that I don't think this is
supposed to be happening. I think somebody might be robbing

(02:00:48):
the loof, And right around that time security realized what
was going on and they headed the other way. Nobody
intervened to try to stop these people from loading up
the Crown jewels. They left, they dropped like ten million
dollars worth of jewels on the way out, and then they.

Speaker 3 (02:01:05):
They were so enamored with the amount of awesome expensive
stuff they got, they were drooling.

Speaker 1 (02:01:11):
They dropped a lot of jewels probably, and then they
hauled ass on scooters and stuff, and they faded into
Paris with everybody else. Right, So, now you've had a
handful of arrests in this, and the the authorities in
Paris are like, well, it looks like we had a
really bad security system. None of the cameras were pointed
to the area that they were supposed to super easy.

(02:01:32):
The password for our security system was louver, which although
not easy.

Speaker 4 (02:01:37):
To spell for some peoples.

Speaker 1 (02:01:40):
No, I never know where theos the l ouvr is
still not very secure, so they had the louver for
a password. Nobody even really ran after these people to
try to catch up with them. It was a catastrophe.
It was the yackety sacks of securing the world's most
famous museum, all right, and then afterwards it was catastrophe

(02:02:02):
after catastrophe in the way that they were handling all
of this. Not to mention the fact that Paris has
mega problems with a million other things, including all this
crime that's been imported from people just flooding into their city.
But afterwards, I think it was within the last week
we learned that at the Louver the workers had another
problem where a pipe burst and it ruined a bunch

(02:02:25):
of really really old books, hundreds of them that were
stored at the Louver. Sorry, I wake up to this
and I see that the Louver workers have voted to
strike so that they can get paid more money as
the holidays approach, and I was thinking, what a time,

(02:02:46):
What a time to do? You want us to secure
this place or rob it? Since it's so easy, might
as well just fire all of them. Okay, this is
your opportunity. Fire everybody there. See you later. Null at
the door, hit Jimmy ass hire some new people. It
is one of the biggest problems Paris has. You could

(02:03:07):
ask people. It's on display in a place like Disneyland Paris,
for example, because you go to a theme park anywhere
else and you get super served by great, great employees,
and you go to Disneyland Paris and you see how
lazy a lot of the Parisians are. They are used
to demanding high wages, putting no effort in, and then

(02:03:29):
it leads to everything sucking everywhere all over the city.
Service sucking, a lot of the restaurants sucking, a lot
of the places that you go to having terrible service,
everything being shut down all the time because it strike
after strike after strike after strike after strike, and at
some point it's like, why not just fire all these people.

(02:03:51):
You don't have a great crew over there, I wouldn't think,
but they have decided now's the time, and as the
holidays have approached, the loop workers say, we're not going
to be shit going up. At least that'll keep the
place closed and maybe more secure so you can save
all of the things that are locked inside the world's
most famous museum. Good luck over there. Okay, let's see

(02:04:12):
what else we have. Oh I told you we have
an update on our friend John Allan Hale, and it's official.
Ladies and gentlemen. They said he couldn't do it, they
said he shouldn't do it, but he did. He has
now officially ridden the Radiator Springs racers cars ride at

(02:04:34):
Disneyland fifteen thousand times. Everybody look at him go. Fifteen
thousand was the number that he held up. It's just
his past, his pass at Universe or at Disneyland. I
would have fast passed, though.

Speaker 4 (02:04:51):
He might have the past number.

Speaker 2 (02:04:53):
You're going multiple times a day, therefore you're not waiting
in line multiple hours.

Speaker 1 (02:04:57):
The only big differences between like the two lower level
passes and then like the Mega Mega expensive pass, and
that one has no days that you can't go. So
he would be able to go literally every day of
the year to Disneyland and go on his Disney ride
before they said he had a knee replacement and gastric

(02:05:19):
bypass surgeries in twenty ten and twenty eleven and then
for some reason that made him start going to the
theme park and he wears his retirement package obviously cars
get up and goes there every day. You know, I
don't know, I don't know where, like the tickets is
not crazy, but he is what you.

Speaker 2 (02:05:39):
Want to do, Yeah, no, if you're doing that every day, like,
there's no it's just that.

Speaker 1 (02:05:45):
He's not working. Yeah, he's not working. I don't know
how old he is. It doesn't say for Disneyland enthusiasts
who marked his fifteen thousand spin on the Car's ride
on Monday, it's not about winning, it's about the ride.
He's that he can't wait to go on at fifteen
thousand more. Oh gosh, he's done. I'm sure somebody in

(02:06:06):
his family's like, all right, he's got to stop, right,
he's gonna die on that ride and make it weird
for everybody.

Speaker 2 (02:06:10):
You know that, Please just leave us alone as a child,
just going on for the first time.

Speaker 1 (02:06:15):
He says, he doesn't tire of it. He never knows
which car is gonna pull ahead and win. You never
know what he's gonna win. The races he showed the notebook,
he says. Disneyland officials says they don't have a record there.
Guinness says they don't track it. But he is keeping track.
He is going every day. Oh, he posted a blog.

(02:06:35):
He's got a blog about this. I don't know if
it's's gonna load or not. Australian kids can't see it.
Welcome to my blog. Welcome to my blog. And the
header graphic is him for the eleven thousandth time with
other people. Everybody has mustaches on like him, I guess.
And this, oh, this was the one before before he

(02:06:56):
broke the record fourteen ninety nine and Monday's not even
doing this every day. Have we done a background check
on him? I don't know. I don't know if they have.

Speaker 3 (02:07:07):
AP calls him a television technician from Bray, California.

Speaker 1 (02:07:12):
All right, I guess he chronicles all the big ones
on his blog. Here he's thirteen thousand laps and this
one he's wearing a mask, but the mask has his
face on it, so it's like his face is on
the mask. Oh, man has a miss COVID opportunity for us.

Speaker 4 (02:07:34):
He had to buy it in bulk, so he has
three hundred more of those, so he doesn't know what
to do.

Speaker 1 (02:07:37):
With He's got all this. This is his whole website.
We should talk to this guy just to really see
how cool he is.

Speaker 4 (02:07:43):
On the phone, like a good three minutes or are
you Oh he's done more?

Speaker 8 (02:07:48):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (02:07:49):
Hold on, hang on, It says Radiator Springs. That's the
car's ride fifteen thousand and one rides. Yeah, Guardians the
Galaxy he's been on, which for them is a tower
of terror. For us, it's the elevator Drop one. He's
been on that eight hundred and sixty three times. He's

(02:08:11):
been on test track five hundred and fifty five times,
Falcon one hundred and eighteen and Slinky Dog seventy three time.
You really need to pick it up on the Slinky
Dog buddy numbers.

Speaker 2 (02:08:25):
Disney Adults here in Florida, we have one of him,
and it's not he doesn't ride rides, but he dances.
Is at like every single concert series at EPCOP and
has been going since the eighties. And he is a tiny,
frail older man. But he's always in a in a

(02:08:46):
get up short shorts. Someone helped me out here he
has one. He's gone viral and I've seen him in
real life and I remember sending the picture to somebody.
It's like, oh, yeah, that's insert name here. He's been
a legend, oh decades.

Speaker 1 (02:09:02):
There's super fans like this all over the place.

Speaker 3 (02:09:06):
I mean, you guys, remember the person that we sat
by for the very last Bill and Ted show.

Speaker 1 (02:09:13):
At Halloween Horror. Two rows of people who fought each other,
no one guy. He was such a mega fan. He
had memorized every line of the Bill and Ted performance
at Universal Studios, which was hilarious and worked in famously
references to the show to this show over the years.

(02:09:34):
During their performance, they did the pop pop and all
kinds of stuff, and they had this great show and
it was funny as hell and people loved it. But
it kind of, I guess, ran its course, and they
wanted to do a couple of other things. I think
they should, but yeah, they had a super fan of
that show who knew every single line and was saying
them all along with the actors that were out on stage.

(02:09:57):
People are super fans of this const I.

Speaker 3 (02:10:00):
Think somebody on the texting service has nailed it down
for Sabrina. You're thinking of the Ferrari Guy aka Eddie Maserati.

Speaker 1 (02:10:08):
Why is it called the Ferrari Guy? I don't know,
but look him up, Eddie mast I know.

Speaker 2 (02:10:13):
He's made some internet traction, all right. I'm trying as
intended for whatever space.

Speaker 3 (02:10:20):
And guy is a legend, dancing is heard out at
Disney Springs for years.

Speaker 1 (02:10:24):
This is a photo of him right here. You kept asking,
so here he is Eddie the icon. This says Disney Springs.
That's what this says. He says that, mister Maserati, I
can't afford. I don't know if this guy's I don't
know if he's rich or not. He's rocking like Risachi stuff.
He's a retired attorney, damn all right, so maybe he

(02:10:45):
just likes the springs when he's not there's a legend
dancing is heard out. Oh I can't play that video.
It didn't work, unfortunately, Eddie Maserati. See if they posted
about him on on Twitter. Yeah, a lot lots of
photos of him in his little outfit and uh, the stage.

(02:11:06):
That's how he's He's not great at dancing necessarily, but
he's you know, he's up in front, clapping in front
of the stage.

Speaker 4 (02:11:15):
And I'm pretty sure he's there like three sixty five.

Speaker 1 (02:11:18):
Yeah, they like it. They love this stuff, and these
people are there's.

Speaker 2 (02:11:21):
Something you too could look forward to in your old
age after the kid goes boy, nothing else to do.

Speaker 4 (02:11:28):
You could be at the theme parks every single day.

Speaker 3 (02:11:31):
Used to have a guy at CityWalk who was he
was working there. He was a security guard in the
people mover section, like when you're just getting the city Walk,
and he would just dance all night and he ended
up having like his own like Facebook page dedicated to
him and like, oh the dancing security guy.

Speaker 1 (02:11:51):
Like people get like this little I don't know ripped
COVID no telling now speculation cod who knows, killed millions
of people. It could have been wild. It doesn't even
necessarily meant he had to pass away.

Speaker 4 (02:12:11):
Bad coff and he said, I'm just taking it easy.

Speaker 1 (02:12:13):
Yeah, shut in now. Tam Jam said, is Disneyland as
expensive as Disney World. I think it's about the same,
But Disneyland is much more. It's much more locals. Disneyland
is much more locals based. At the disney World theme parks,
about fifty percent or so of the visitors are the

(02:12:37):
annual pass holders. The other fifty percent or so shaw
are the tourists that come in there every single day
from all around the world. But at Disneyland, I think
it's more like seventy or eighty percent of the locals
that go to the theme park all the time. So
it's a little bit.

Speaker 2 (02:12:53):
They haven't like updated. They're like, it's correct if I'm wrong.
But there's some parts where it feels like you're the original.

Speaker 1 (02:13:01):
Well that it is. They that's the original part. That's
the one that Walt Disney set foot in. That one's
you know, more historically important. In a lot of ways.
They don't have much room where where they're located to
put much more stuff, but they do stuff to like
keep the annual passolders happy like that. They won't do
what places where more tourists come in. So they do

(02:13:22):
overlays on the rides where they'll do them for Christmas
or Halloween and the ride will be different because of
the holiday, which is kind of fun. But they don't
do that here. I guess all right, we're going to
take a very quick break. We got to get an
update on Bonnie Blue because she may have blew her
way into fifteen years in in Indonesian jail. If if

(02:13:44):
any of these stories are to be believed, Blue is
what I mean. We'll see what's going on with her.
Has she been freed? Is she going to be staying there?
Just a quick update, some info on porch pirates. I
got clips galore, I got you, I got an ad
that is firing people up today. We got a lot
more in a little bit of time, so we'll do that.

(02:14:05):
It's coming up next on the New Use Junkie. It's
time for good idea or bad idea? Everybody ideal, oh

(02:14:30):
bad idea. Honestly, I usually know what both of you
are going to say about any given topic. I know
what your take is going to be most of the time,
it's just kind of easy to guess where you guys
are going to go. And nothing against you. I just
I know you know, But I don't know how you're
going to feel about this. I don't know if you're
going to think this is a good idea or bad idea.

(02:14:53):
But they are. They are doing something at police stations
all across the country right now, and that is they're
officially segueing into AI for their suspect sketches ooh, and
they're starting to release these AI generated like suspect things

(02:15:16):
where usually you would go in and there'd be some
person who is the varying levels of talent who would
draw the person and you would say, which one of
these noses do they have? They go they have that nose,
which one of these brows do they have? And you
go along and they draw what the person looks like.
Now everybody's starting to transfer over to AI versions of this,

(02:15:39):
and they're swapping the suspect sketches for AI generated drawings.
This says after a late November shooting in a Phoenix suburb,
police or at least an apparent mugshot of their suspect,
a middle aged man wearing a hoodie with a beanie
and a goatee, and appealed to the public for tips.
It came with a warning. This generated image is based

(02:16:01):
on victim and witness statements and does not depict a
real person. Well obviously neither does the drawing when they're
doing it that way is just you're putting together information
and trying to do the best you can. The good
Year Police Department's computer generated image of their shooting suspect
almost looks like a photo, they say. They say, it's
not an AI fabrication, and we're sourced in the same

(02:16:25):
way as a typical composite sketch. It's still AI generated,
so it's AI like. However, you want to freeze. I'll
get what they're trying to argue for. They're saying, it's
not that it just comes out of nowhere. We feed
the information in and the computer software spits out an image,
but it's still AI.

Speaker 3 (02:16:44):
Yeah, you're still I mean taking jobs away from sketch people.

Speaker 1 (02:16:48):
Yeah. Sketch people are there these days, I don't know.
In most big cities, it seems that they have one
and they use these for you know, the random occasions
where they come up with that they're looking for and
they want to release the image to the media. But
they are using a lot of AI tools in the
police departments. Now this is replacing an officer who usually

(02:17:10):
draws sketches of the suspect. The person is using the
AI to recreate them and the pencil drawings are no more.
What program is it?

Speaker 11 (02:17:19):
Chat?

Speaker 4 (02:17:20):
We need in a perfect description of one of us,
and it draws it.

Speaker 1 (02:17:24):
Do you think? I don't know, but that's a good question.
I would think that they're using specific law enforcement software
would be my guess, but it's also possible that that
law enforcement software is utilizing chat GPT as a resource
to do it. This MSN story says earlier this year,

(02:17:47):
this guy fed some of his old sketches into chat GPT,
so that's particular chat GPT, and was struck by lifelike
images generated by the AI, which he said resembled the
real suspect these sketches had been matched to. So we said,
are they.

Speaker 3 (02:18:04):
Just doing that or are they now using the description
from the eyewitness to let chat GBT sketch it like,
is somebody sketching it and they're just using AI? To
like color it and make it look photorealistic.

Speaker 1 (02:18:18):
It says they received a deluge your tips after sharing
the image, and it convinced him to repeat the process.
He says people are more likely to engage with the
photorealistic images. He said using AI to generate images help
the witnesses he interviewed better visualize the suspects they were describing.
He generates the AI images with his witness present, and

(02:18:39):
they were able to suggest small details and changes that
he could quickly incorporate. The suspect said, the most recent
AI image has a dumbfounded expression, which is something the
witness noted repeatedly. And they have not let to any
arrest just yet. But there's some people who hate this.
Then there's a backlash against them using the AI for

(02:19:00):
these sort of these sketches that they used to have
of the bad guys. I mean it's probably inevitable, yeah, right,
Like this is probably the inevitable conclusion that we're gonna
come to. But how good would it be? I wish
we knew the questions that he asked, so we could,
like we could start answering those questions and feed in

(02:19:21):
Sabrina's information.

Speaker 3 (02:19:22):
I also wish you knew the questions that they asked,
because I think that I wouldn't know how to correctly
describe certain people if I was an eyewitness. I mean
a lot of the eyewitness stuff they say, you know,
it happened so fast, you don't remember anything about the people.

Speaker 1 (02:19:40):
Here's what we'll try to do tomorrow during the show
for our bike drive, We're gonna have a bunch of
stuff going on and we'll do this is one of
the things. I'll try to get the questions that they
ask people. We'll put in all the information and see
how close we can get to us. You know what
I mean, Like if we answer all the questions. I

(02:20:01):
was gonna suggest Moses, but well, we'll see. We'll pick
somebody and we'll go through these questions one by one
and see how good the AI is at doing this.
We'll do that at some point during the show tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (02:20:13):
If there's a sketch artist that Nosey's gonna che it's
gonna lose their job to AI.

Speaker 1 (02:20:20):
Feel free to come on by the bike drive. Sure,
I'd like to all sorts of questions. Yeah, we can
set you up. We can get you in front of
a big audience to get you that next job. Actually,
people are mad because not only is Coca Cola doing
this for the holidays, McDonald's has also released an a
I generated Christmas Ada. They hate it, okay, even the

(02:20:53):
place it's the most terrible time. This is the future too,
Like you can complain about AI ads all you want.
For them to film exactly what I'm looking at would
have cost them tens of millions of dollars. Oh yeah,
it's a whole gigantic set with crazy things happening. All
the follies that occur on Christmas is what's playing out

(02:21:17):
in this video. And a woman's getting off a train
and getting stuck in the train. Fire at dinner breaks out,
and there's music and everything all AI and anywhere you
post this. They posted on their official accounts, and they
turned off the comments because they get all just roasted

(02:21:37):
by anybody who sees that they're making AI commercials. I
don't know that we're going to escape this. They could
have done a little better rewriting that song though. Yeah,
the beginning was a it was like most terrible time
of the year. Okay, that's fine, right. Leaving Santan Space

(02:22:00):
was the one that threw off the Cadence. I think
that's what they should have done. Yeah, they could have
said turn to Mayhem, Leavin, Santa, no space your shoehorning.

Speaker 3 (02:22:12):
A syllable on one side and then taking one out
on the other side.

Speaker 1 (02:22:17):
It's just weird.

Speaker 4 (02:22:18):
Humans are still needed.

Speaker 1 (02:22:20):
It is the future. You will see more and more
and more of these ai ads because it's so much cheaper.

Speaker 3 (02:22:26):
The baby is fixed on the latest thing that he
just stares at forever. Is that's one of these shows
that looks like Coco Melon but isn't Coco Melon. And
they just redo the lyrics to old songs like kind
of like Miss Rachel does, but this ones don't even rhyme.
Sometimes it's infuriating, but he loves it.

Speaker 1 (02:22:45):
Yeah. The kids stuff is such a crazy world because
I'm sure you've seen this Sea Lamb. Sometimes your kid
is watching some dopey video on YouTube and he goes, God,
who watches this? And then you look and he'll say
eighty million years.

Speaker 2 (02:23:04):
Oh by conspiracy theory. But there must be some tone
that adults can here.

Speaker 1 (02:23:09):
Maybe watch more, watch more, little kid.

Speaker 3 (02:23:15):
You know, a lot of the kids stuff is so
popular because it'll like, do two things distract your kid
and keep them from, you know, doing stuff you don't
want them to, or get your kid to sleep.

Speaker 1 (02:23:29):
And the sleep ones that bend the same thing.

Speaker 3 (02:23:32):
The one that I play for him when we put
them to bed every night has fifty eight million views.

Speaker 1 (02:23:36):
What's it called.

Speaker 3 (02:23:38):
It's called the most relaxing music for babies to sleep,
three hours of Lullaby.

Speaker 1 (02:23:46):
It is three hours. Yeah, you're right.

Speaker 4 (02:23:49):
I love the right. When you close the door, they're like,
kill your parents.

Speaker 1 (02:23:57):
The graphic was a drawing of a little baby and
it said sleep instantly, like this just completely knocks them out.
I think when Jackson was born it had seventeen million views.
Sun it's only two years old. The hell is that
this is just generic. If you're a parent with a

(02:24:18):
child and your hands full and you need help, that
looks like roast. Yeah, fiftee, subscribe to our channel so
your little kids can finally go to sleep. The other
thing I wanted to share with you, I'll put this
on see it now as well. Congratulations to the residents
of Frostburg, Maryland who have just broke a world record.

(02:24:38):
You did it, ye do it. They made the world's
largest snowball. Okay, forty three feet. You're gonna be impressed.
You're gonna be impressed. It's pretty big. They made the
largest snowball on planet Earth. And it's time lapse and

(02:25:03):
they look like little ants. Oh the way up?

Speaker 3 (02:25:05):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (02:25:05):
Did the kid just get stuck? They use a piece
of machinery.

Speaker 4 (02:25:09):
There a little kid that's stuck on the top of it,
right before that drone shot.

Speaker 1 (02:25:13):
Well, look, if one kid has to die to make
the biggest snowball in the world, I think that's the
kind of sacrifice that we're going to have to make. Otherwise,
how are we going to get to this? This is
a great human achievement. Wait, do you see this? I'm
going to put this up on see it now because
it truly is spectacular. I'm grabbing this on right there.
All right, this is going up in the snowball World Record.

(02:25:37):
It will be the title of it, the snowball. There
we are world I wonder what the Guinness rules were for,
like did it have to be rolled the entire way?
Were you not allowed to pile snow on top of it?
I saw them using a front end loader kind of thing,
which seemed a little cheaty, a little cheaty. I have

(02:25:58):
I'm honest. That seemed like ANT know I should be
doing this, but it's up right now. Go take a
look over on the news Junkie dot com and they
see it now section. When we return, here's what we're
gonna do. We've got all the stuff that we didn't
hit so far. We got the final dispatches stories that
didn't make the cut, and of course today I learned
to wrap it up for a share the show Tuesday

(02:26:20):
that is coming up next on the News Junkie. People
will swing by and steal your stuff. They will do it.

(02:26:41):
That's why I have so many stories like this about
porch pirates all over the place.

Speaker 2 (02:26:46):
Be send you guys yesterday, I don't From my neighbor,
someone stole all of their Christmas lights and the Christmas inflatables.

Speaker 1 (02:26:56):
Okay, this is catch it. I probably shouldn't show this
because it's a app So yeah, somebody stole my Christmas
decor out of my yard. They said, two inflatable dinosaurs
and I can't see it anymore. Two inflatable dinosaurs and
all of the lights. None of my cameras caught them.
For whatever reason. What's wrong with your cameras? Hell, I

(02:27:19):
don't have an idea, but it just feels like advice
to potential No, don't no, don't tell them that it
maybe knocked out the Wi Fi or something. But that's
exactly what was Yeah, could have been what dinosaur inflatables?
Something went wrong there. Bonnie Blue, this adult star and
OnlyFans person or whatever, who is in Indonesian jail right now,

(02:27:41):
facing up the fifteen years. They're saying that the cops
are continuing their investigation against her. There were different things
like outfits that said Bonnie Blue on them, Viagra pills,
condoms and lubricant that were taken and now this is

(02:28:02):
lending her in hot water. They're saying that they were
going to push forward with prosecution here. That seems like
I'd be surprised if they actually did. But that's what
they're angling for, that this OnlyFans star is going to
end up going to jail for some period of time.
We shall see. Is she the one that's from America
or uk Uk? I think she's British, but not one

(02:28:23):
hundred percent that.

Speaker 3 (02:28:24):
Like, you know, President Trump to start trying to offer
some arms dealers up to No.

Speaker 1 (02:28:30):
That's a world problem. That's somebody else's issue. Here on
her hands and New York City. That's right, New New
York City. They have tied their record, according to ABC News,
for the longest stretch without a homicide in recorded history.
It went twelve days to November twenty fifth to December

(02:28:52):
seventh without a homicide, twelve days. They'd never done that before.

Speaker 3 (02:28:55):
Is the story that they've reached the record and are
currently it or was there an incident that had the
streak the.

Speaker 1 (02:29:05):
Record which it ties The record from twenty fifteen, I
guess was ended when a thirty eight year old man
was shot and killed in the stairwell of a city
run apartment building in the Bronx. Unfortunately, like more murders
during COVID, Oh, COVID. COVID was a huge spike and
murders from most major cities. So that was like a
high point that they're in a bad way that they're

(02:29:26):
coming down from. So yeah, that was their longest stretch,
tied record for longest stretch without a homicide in New York.
And let's do at least one dispatch. These are the
final dispatches, but Sean will probably only tay true true.
Let's see what we got here, all right, let's refresh,

(02:29:49):
so we have the latest and the greatest, and let's
go to I don't want to do that one. Here's
nomen who says they were ticketed for a license plate cover.

Speaker 10 (02:30:03):
It's up news junkies, it's no Man for the first time, Dispatch,
No Man. I was ticketed for having a tinted license
plate cover around twenty twenty four, is the day before
Hurricane Milton. I was coming home with groceries and this
guy followed me and pulled me over and ticketed me.

(02:30:24):
And I tried to tell him, like, I live in
Ciminole County now, and I had no idea this was
a buff thing. And I've had registration stickers stolen from
me in the past right off my car.

Speaker 1 (02:30:35):
That happened.

Speaker 10 (02:30:36):
It was just one of the ways that I tried
to deter that from happening again.

Speaker 1 (02:30:39):
Yeah, that does happen, and that is annoying. I don't know.
I feel like they're making some changes with the registration.
They've added the ability. I don't know if you guys
have seen this, but at publics in some locations, you
can get your registration renewed and print the yellow sticker
for your license plate right out at the public's to

(02:31:00):
make it easier to really like that. It would be
nice and I like because last last time, I paid
all of the stuff for my registration and they never
sent it to me. They had the right address, they
had everything, unlesson we stole it in the mail. They
never even sent it over to me. Let's see stories
that did make the cut. Social media is absolutely nuking

(02:31:22):
children's brains. According to new research. It's not gonna be
great for those kids in Australia for sure. The rest
of it will save and put to the side because
it's time to get the hell out of here and
it's time to do this. Let's do today. I learn
the following information may make you feel smarter, but will
not actually increase your IQ. So don't get cocky. Now

(02:31:43):
it's done. What we call today It is tay Alert
for a Tuesday, December ninth, twenty twenty five. We will
see you tomorrow for the annual Bike Drive. We'll be
streaming here on YouTube and Twitch. I don't know what
it's gonna to look like. I don't know what it's
going to be like, but we'll be live, so we'll

(02:32:04):
see how everything goes. And we want you to help
us raise as many bikes as we possibly can for
kids for Christmas. Pretty simple thing and hopefully all goes well.
Thro Radio dot FM, slash Bike. That's where all the
information is and you can come hang out with us
if you want. We'll have more details all day tomorrow
on the show Today Learn. Mister Rogers invited somebody from
this movie. That's right, Wizard is correct. Mister Rogers invited

(02:32:30):
Margaret Hamilton, who played the wicked Witch of the Wests.
I don't know how she sounds. Is that my pretty
that that lady? You invited her on his show, The
Mister Rogers Show to help explain that her character was
make believe and the real woman behind the makeup wasn't
scary at all, because mister Rogers liked to do that
kind of stuff. Taylor.

Speaker 3 (02:32:51):
I think you're still were in the witch costume, though,
which seems a little weird.

Speaker 1 (02:32:55):
They wanted to make people comfortable with it, Taylor. Some
studies on drunk driving have found that a blood alcohol
content of point zero one to point zero four correlates
with better driving and a lower accident at risk than
being completely sober. This doesn't seem last time wishing you
were reading out loud your If this was an online ad,
it'd be like the trick cops don't want you to know,

(02:33:18):
Like if you have just a little bit of alcohol
in your blood, you drive better than if you're completely sober.
It's a quirk in statistics, they said, So please don't
don't use that to go out and drink and drive.
To learn this video game right, Super Mario Brothers. Let's

(02:33:39):
spin off of this. Nintendo's King Coopa's Cool Cartoons, an
Americans children's show broadcast in southern California in nineteen eighty nine.
The show was canceled after sixty five episodes and has
never been seen online since. They call it a lost media.
King Coopa's Cool Cartoons All Kays, which who is about?

(02:34:00):
Idea to wander in too many k's like the fourth
one just needs to sure it stays. That'll save you
a little bit today. Learned this band right here? Oh,
Glass Tiger. Glass Tiger is correct. Glass Tiger a Canadian
rock band from Newmarket, Ontario. Everybody. They are one of

(02:34:21):
the most successful Canadian bands in history. Their album The
Thin Red Line went quadruple platinum in Canada and gold
in the United States of America, including this song. Thank
you so much, Frank and I lets do appreciate it.
We're back tomorrow, same time, same place. Visiting the show.
Get the podcast at the news Junkie dot com. We'll

(02:34:42):
see you tomorrow with some bikes. Everybody. It also
