Eas No, no, not hungover, just just a little. Some
digestive things are working their way through me. Oh my god,

I mean hopefully it's uh it's buttoned up. But yesterday was,
you know, it was. It was an adventure. I was like,
you're nine to eleven?

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Absolutely your nine eleven?

Speaker 1 (00:42):
Were? You just strapped to the toilet all day? I
couldn't be too far from one. Oh my god, you

anybody firmly? Because that's always nice? You're like use of
a bit me. I mean, yeah, yeah, there were there

(01:05):
were some. You know. I made a nice dinner for us,
for Ashley and I. We were celebrating our five year
wedding anniversary. That was okay, and uh so you tried
to poison yourself because five years.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Friday night we didn't have as much time. So I
made like, you know, just marry me. Chickens because I
thought it was.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
And then Saturday night when I made the actual dinner,
it was turned into like, please don't divorce me potatoes
because they just they were undercooked.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
And right in the middle was food poisoning for me.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
She's fine, Yeah, so I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
Yeah, that's tough. I hate that that's happening today. I
hope it doesn't pop up during the show. I do
too if it does. If you see Sea Lane, just
like a cartoon character, start running in place and then
like you know, a.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Little smoke trail from or some kind of trail from
here to the bathroom.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
Not a good time. But let's start off as we
always do. Let's kick off the week by putting our
ears to the ground, our fingers on the pulse.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Let's see what's happening to this great, big, wide world
of ours. And we go to the boxing ring. Baby, Yeah, right,
who doesn't like a little little boxing action out there?

Speaker 4 (02:17):
And there are about ten things that I absolutely love
about this clip. I could honestly do probably an hour
on this clip, but it's only a fifteen second clip,
so we will not we will not stretch it out
for that long.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
But I want to present it to you.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
I'm ready.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
All right.

Speaker 4 (02:34):
This is a boxing fight that went down this weekend.
And one of the people who was boxing was B Dave,
who doesn't know B Dave, And the other one was
Rod Stewart's son.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
All Right, Rod Stewart, the singer.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
And performer, a boxer.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
He's a boxer now and he's also a boxer with
cornrows because why not?

Speaker 2 (02:56):
All right, there's no cultural appropriation in UK.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
Can I tell you my favorite thing about this is
what the thing that says the fighter's name, it says
Rod Stuart's Rod Stuart's son.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
It doesn't even say his name. They don't wait even
are you sure his name? And just isn't like Rod Stuartson?
And they at a space in there and listen how
this went. Dawn, Hey we go, I'm afraid of the power?

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Oh do go? Sonning out flop rod Stone he should
have been afraid of.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
All right, quite the victory celebration there, just in case
you missed it, because there are a lot of ways
to celebrate a victory. This is not what I've seen
and I just absolutely love down goes Rod Stewart's son.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
Not you don't even get a name. You are just
Rod Stewart's son. I'm afraid of the power. Oh don't go.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Son flop lie Rod Stuart.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
So one, what the it's a bit of a celebration
too much.

Speaker 4 (04:09):
It was it was an air oral thing that he
was he was doing to really drive the point home.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
I guess that he won. I don't know what kind
of job.

Speaker 5 (04:21):
On that.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Yeah, yeah, he really.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
It looked like there was some sort of familiarity with
with doing this for this young gentleman.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
I don't know he was given it an Indian rug
burn a little bit.

Speaker 4 (04:33):
Of One of the top comments was this guy looks
like the bully in every nineties movie and he's.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
Like some punk ship with like.

Speaker 4 (04:43):
Like his hair is too long and he's gonna bully
the kids in class and shove him in a locker
or something.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
But it's not really cool.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
It doesn't help that he's beating up somebody who they
won't even say his name, Rod Stewart, so they said Sean,
but I mean they won't even put the kid's name
on the on the on screen graphics.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
No, that's tough. That is that's a tough life.

Speaker 4 (05:07):
And I don't know how much this boxing agency here
is is paying them for.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
This, but it's it's a tough life. And he got
knocked out.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
He really did drop like an absolute paperweight there.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Shut what what is it? The Blues Clues guy in
his corner over here right here? Oh no, that's just
he's got a shirt that looks very much like it.

Speaker 4 (05:36):
Okay, I thought, because I didn't know how wacky this
boxing league was.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
Getting, he's got a knockout.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
That would be a good gimmick. That would be a
good gimmick. I'd be down for it.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
I just it's very curious to me that Rod Stewart's
son didn't go the you know, other rock star, very
popular musicians route of like once you die, we'll take
over your place.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
He was like, now, Papa, I'm gonna do my own thing,
and that is get my ass kicked in the boxing.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
And he looks a lot bigger than the guy he's boxing,
b Dave right here.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Yeah, he didn't do much.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
He was like four seconds in, bam right down in
the ring.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
He goes.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
Rod Stewart's son is down his boxing career in shambles.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
In shambles, I don't even know what to do. For him.
This was his debut, this was this might be the debut.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
He's already being roasted by the AI, it says. Rod
Stuart's son, Sean Stewart, had a brief and unsuccessful boxing
debut at a misfit boxing event. He was knocked out
by opponent B Dave within thirteen to twenty seconds of
the first round.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Shut up those thirteen seconds. Dave, an influencer boxer, walked
out to Rod Stewart's music, adding to the irony of
the quick knockout. No God, we happened a boxing Remember
boxing us to me like this respected.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Institution not getting the money that weird ass celebrity boxing does.

Speaker 4 (07:06):
Oh there's so many things about this fifteen second clip
that just do it for me.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
But I think that's it for him. I think it is.
I don't know about B.

Speaker 4 (07:14):
Dave's career. I'm not here to weigh in on that.
I just know Rod Stewart's son. Your dad's got to
be at home going what what is this? This is
worse than chet Hanks. This is literally worse than chet Hanks.
The only thing worse than this right now is the
situation at these airports in the United States. Of America. Okay,

(07:34):
I'm looking at the misery map. There's literally something called
the misery map which shows airport delays and cancelations on
flight aware dot com.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
And I thought it was just directions to your house.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
The misery map from flight aware shows all of.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
The big airports. I thought it was just a uh oh.

Speaker 6 (07:57):
So going.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
I thought it was just a little little little pit
drops of every toilet that I destroyed yesterday. I keep going,
if we keep going, here do you knock me out?
And then the fame oral sex over my body on
the ground? Is that where perform as well?

Speaker 2 (08:13):
People would pay money for that.

Speaker 4 (08:14):
Gentleman, you can like hover over all these these airports
and see how many delays and then how many things
are impacted by it, and it's like it's bad. It's
five hundred and ninety three delays and four hundred cancelations
in the.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
Last couple hours alone.

Speaker 4 (08:32):
At O r D is one of the major airports
that A is having issues right now with, which clearly
you know is just an ordinary airport.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
Oh is it? Why would it be O r D?
O Hair Regional? Who knows?

Speaker 4 (08:51):
Don't I don't know, I don't know, Ohair at Midway
are the big airports there. It looks like O'Hare in
Chicago is suffering. Maybe not so much from Midway at
least at the moment, but it's just a disaster out
there for a lot of people.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
And it's getting to the folks, you know, the folks
who are going to the airport.

Speaker 4 (09:09):
I don't think they're traveling for Thanksgiving just yet, but
they're you know, they're starting to get into the big
travel season here and they are melting down. And at
the Orlando Airport, for example, I'll take you there, at
the Southwest counter. I've been to this exact gate probably
a dozen times. Like I've literally stood right here a
whole bunch of times. And at Gate one twenty five

(09:32):
at MCO the Orlando Airport, some woman who was upset
that I think her her flight got delayed for the
third time just starts melting.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Down, melting down.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
I'm not like this lady is like, I can only
play so much of this. I gotta skip forward a
little bit. But yeah, yeah, stand by it. Here fights.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
She's chasing the Southwest employee away from Yeah, and for
the record, where's the security. There's no security.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
Remember they're on bicycles.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
She smashed all of the monitors at the Southwest terminal there,
she started smashing them and hitting them.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
And then now she's following the guy. This guy doesn't
know what to do, just walking around. Call the police.
The lady goes for who who call the police for
the guy that you're be rating right now? The security sucks.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
And then other people just walking by. Yeah, it's like
this one dude's like, I've I've got a plan to
catch but I'm not late. So he's just gonna meander
calmly through the chaos.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
The Southwest Gate agent is now he's over by Delta
or something. He's defected. Yes, it's like, it's not that
important to me. None of this is that important to me.
This woman is melting.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
Uh, she goes back over to the south but video
don't know what she said. Tell your brother you need
to go disconnected? Smashing the signs?

Speaker 2 (11:34):
I mean, just wait, so you never want to fly again?

Speaker 1 (11:37):
No, that's no filist? Right? Is that no FLYLISTA wait?
Hold on? Can you get no fly list if you're
not flying?

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Well, I mean she's going to be arrested, that's definitely
she should be. I don't know the charges, but damnage
has been I mean done to all of their property.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Let's get let's get simple here.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
If you are in a plane and you cause chaos
in the air one d percent, that could put you
on the no fly list. Yes, if you are in
the airport and you cause the chaos in the terminal,
still no fly list.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
I have no idea what the answer to that question is.
Maybe maybe no matter what.

Speaker 4 (12:17):
Maybe like once you're past TSA, maybe you're just like
in the airport, so all of that counts, you know.
I'm not sure, But this lady was melting down and
a lot of other people are freaking out about this
flight delays hitting all over the place, including Palm Beach
International Airport. Some of these flights have made cut And
there's an interesting development, this development in this happening right now,

(12:39):
which I'll tell you just a second. But a lot
of these airports have been rough. Getting out of Cincinnati
was difficult. One of these people trying to fly yesterday
saying we were on the runway for like an hour
or so. It stinks because you feel bad for all
the people who aren't being paid right now. And this
is as the government shutdown appears to become to an

(13:00):
end right now. It looks like the government shutdown is
coming to me and.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
Said that last week.

Speaker 4 (13:05):
No, the Democrats on Sunday, I guess enough of them
decided to move over with Republicans, and eight Senate Democrats
broke ranks and they're advancing this deal that should open
the government back up.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
That Chuck Schummer.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Schumer. I don't know if Schumer was among the folks
who did it. He might have been.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
I'll have to look at this, it says Centiment Minority
leader Chuck Schumer insisted Democrats gained ground on healthcare. He
voted against the deal, though, along with every Democratic senator
who will be facing voters in the twenty twenty six
mid terms. But eight Democrats said, all right, well, a
holdout has gone on long enough. We've got some sort
of deal here. But it doesn't fix things immediately. It's

(13:48):
not like FA workers are like, Okay, well now I'm
definitely getting bad. Okay, I'm coming back to work. It
doesn't fix it immediately. It's still an ongoing problem. And
I don't know if you can even do this. But
I saw Trump truth early this morning and he said

(14:08):
air traffic controllers, all of them must get back to
work now, all caps. Anybody who doesn't will be substantially
docked in air quotes or in regular quotes. For those
air traffic controllers who were the great patriots, all caps
and didn't take any time off all caps for the

(14:28):
Democrat shutdown hoax. I will be recommending a bonus of
ten thousand dollars per person for distinguished service to our country.
So he's saying, if you don't show up for work
at the FAA, your I guess your pay will be
substantially docked. And if you did show up every single day,

(14:49):
you will get a bonus of ten thousand dollars, which
I don't even know. I don't even know if you
can do that. I don't know if that's a thing.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Well, I imagine a lot of screenshots taken. And also,
can you really blame people, regardless of what their political
affiliation is. You go so many weeks of that being paid,
why would you show up to work?

Speaker 1 (15:11):
No?

Speaker 4 (15:12):
I mean, I think fa workers tend to be and
I've seen a lot of stories on this.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
They're a little soft on some things.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
They're a little soft on the whole, Like the looseness
was showing up to work sometimes.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
But if some if your boss tells you, like, are
you going to get paid? I don't know. I don't know.
I'll be like, if am I going to go to work?
I don't know, I'd like, I want to get paid.

Speaker 7 (15:35):
For my work.

Speaker 1 (15:36):
I think.

Speaker 3 (15:36):
I think the bigger question is like does he have
the I mean, the authority I guess to give these bonuses.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Where's the bonus coming from? Yeah, the idea that you
your pay gets docked for not showing up to work.
That's how work works. You don't show to work, you
don't get paid to work, right, But the bone, he's
not the one docking you.

Speaker 4 (15:59):
I will be recommending bonus of ten thousand dollars for
distinguished service to our country, for people who who didn't
take any time off, for those who did nothing but
complain and took time off even though everybody knew they
would be paid in full shortly to the future.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
I am not happy with you all caps, so it
just goes on.

Speaker 4 (16:18):
I what. I don't know if that's a thing you
can do to say that you're going to give the
fa people of a ten thousand dollars bonus. If So
the guy who said I'll just keep coming to work, Yeah,
probably feeling good about himself right now. If you can
make that work, I think. Anyhow, the airports are are
not doing fantastic. The government shutdown appears to be winding up.

(16:42):
I'm not sure who's going to claim the w on
that one, but it looks like, come on, everybody will.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
I honestly everybody will afterwards, everybody like we did the
right thing.

Speaker 4 (16:52):
We are the people who are right about this. Our
team was the best. The other teams suck. That's what
they're gonna say. Meanwhile, let's go over to the box office,
as we always do, to circle back on this.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
It's not a bathroom thing, is it. No.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
Chicago O'Hare used to be called Orchard Field Airport in
the mid nineteen forties, so they were assigned tord Okay
if it was, you know, left hanging in the needles, yeah,
that one guy, Well, why did they why did they
just go right bio?

Speaker 1 (17:25):
What happened there over the box office?

Speaker 4 (17:28):
Number one with a bullet? Did anybody see Predator? The
new Predator? I was big this weekend.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Predator bad Lands got forty million dollars at the box office,
The Predator, The entire franchise has never been stronger. I
didn't know you Predator people were out there, but you are,
you are, and you wanted to watch it. Forty million
dollars at the box office.

Speaker 4 (17:50):
Something called Regretting You in its third week, got number two.
I still don't know anything about that. Black Phone two
still in the top three. Sarah's Oil whatever that is
Nuremberg at number.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
Four, and then the new movie with.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
Christy got eleventh place with one point three million dollars.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
Like her third Mom in the box office.

Speaker 4 (18:14):
You know, there's a lot of Sydney Sweeney hate at
the moment, especially on the internet. I think this is
a movie that, like, people weren't really asking for. I
did kind of like, what what was her? We just
watched a movie with her.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
Glen Powell. Nor was it the scary movie where she's
a nun.

Speaker 4 (18:39):
It was a movie where it was like her in
her abusive, drug addicted boyfriend. And I don't want to
spoil too much about four. It was not Mama mea four.
I think it might have been Americana. No, that's not it.
I'll have to figure out. Oh that's it, Echo Valley
Echo Valley is this thriller movie.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
With her and Julianne Moore.

Speaker 4 (19:02):
I don't know if you know who Julianne Moore is,
but City Swinging and julian Moore and it was on
Apple TV and we watched that and I thought that
one was good.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
I thought that was a pretty good movie.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
Speaking of Apple TV, you guys did plurbs hell.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
Yes, so good.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
I'm ready for it.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
I don't think I'm gonna do it. Why because the
pitch sounds so miserable for this show.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
Watch the first episode and I I don't know. I
can't promise, but I think instead of going against the grain,
you might actually enjoy it. I know Courtney will like it.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
Read me the blurb on this if you can't.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
I don't know the blurb. I just went with it.

Speaker 4 (19:40):
I didn't ask if you knew the blurb, Celi and
see if you could pull up just like the little
pitch on this that they have because it's something like,
the most miserable person in the world is in charge
of the country or something like that must.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
Save the world from happiness.

Speaker 4 (19:57):
Okay, the most miserable person in the world must save
the world from happiness.

Speaker 3 (20:02):
That's a terrible it's a bad pitch, but it's breaking bad.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
Vince Gilligan's he's great.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
Yeah, he's great, but it's more it's more like his
X Files roots. Yeah, it's very sci fi.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
The first episode there was a lot of creepy stuff
and you didn't know what was going on, and once
you figure out, the second episode had some really funny
parts to it. And now my wife and I are
two different camps of how we would attack this situation
where we where we've defined ourselves in the main character's shoes.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
And you are my household is the same way right now.
And then what I hated the most was that they
said three episodes, but then you click it and it's like,
oh no, we're just letting you know when the third
episode's coming out. Well, we were left on the edge
of our seats and still have to wait for it
to come out.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
This is funny. It's a funny show.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
Dark comedy, but also has this great like leave you
at the of your seat suspense because you don't know
what's going to happen next.

Speaker 4 (21:04):
Maybe dispatchious Dispatchers sell me on this.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
What do you got for us today?

Speaker 4 (21:08):
Give us your thoughts on anything we're talking about, what
we're not talking about that you think we should be
as always send a dispatch from thenewschunky dot com right.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Now quick break when we come back, and email.

Speaker 4 (21:19):
To get into And I've never had this happen before
in my life doing this show, never, but this weekend
there was one of these stories about a mysterious fireball
in the sky and it was people in my neighborhood
that had seen this thing, and I was like, there
was a mysterious fire miss I did too, but I
want to know what's going on. We're going to dive

(21:40):
into what happened in the sky in just a moment.
That's coming up next in the News Junkie.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
This weekend.

Speaker 4 (22:03):
Courtney got a little mad at me yesterday because of
a suggestion I had.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
She didn't like it. I took it.

Speaker 4 (22:08):
From the show, though, so I felt like it was
fair game because we got into her car last night.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
You know, it's getting a little chillier, and when we.

Speaker 4 (22:17):
Got into her car, the whole front window was fogged up,
and I said, this is what we get for not
having a honeysock in this car.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
And I was like, unbelievable that if.

Speaker 4 (22:30):
We had a honeysock, and she she was like, thank
god Selane knows about like groceries and stuff, because she
was screaming at the radio at the time, like do
you guys know how.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
Expensive honey is?

Speaker 4 (22:42):
And then see Lane made mention of it, and I'm like,
I don't know how expensive honey is.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
I don't know. But the story we.

Speaker 4 (22:48):
Had last week said that when it gets cold like this,
if you put a sock full of honey or I
forgot what the other A big option Rice was the
rise more law and also cheaper route. Yeah, and then
then it will stop that from happening.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
It'll like soak in the moisture.

Speaker 4 (23:07):
And she just started ranting about how stupid of an
idea the honeysock was.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
Honeysock is wild to me, And we had nobody that said, oh, yeah,
we've thought of that. I feel like it was a
social experiment that we saw right through. Yeah, I will
give you this because it did get a little cooler.
Found myself in a situation in which I couldn't see
anything because it was fogged up, and I googled. I
pulled over to the side of the road and I googled.

(23:33):
At the same time, and it said turn up. Yeah,
it was driving at the same time. Turn up your heat, yeah.
One you're putting in uh, the the the fogger, yeah,
the defrost mode. Turn up the heat and then crack
a little bit your windows and then seconds it's gone.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Yeah, but you know it doesn't take seconds.

Speaker 4 (23:53):
Ah honeysock, You flop the honeysock up on the dashboard.
Never happens to begin with. Did we find anybody in
the listening audience who has ever heard of this before?

Speaker 2 (24:04):
No, that do to your dashboard, Yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
The sock and just everything.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
But so how often if you do the rice sock,
Let's say you want to go that route, you have
to change that because if the rice ends up soaking
in this moisture, is it gonna stinky old rice cement?

Speaker 1 (24:26):
That's gross?

Speaker 2 (24:27):
Can you eat soy right there?

Speaker 1 (24:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (24:29):
Nothing about this is good, literally, nothing about this is good.
But what was good was, for the first time ever
this weekend, there was one of these stories that I
see going viral out there, and it's like people took
to the skies. They started looking at the skies and
around six fifteen am on Saturday, they saw that.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah, I wasn't up either. It was obviously.

Speaker 4 (24:51):
Not up, but people were posting on my next door,
which I love because it's so cringe and there's so
many just unbelievably we posts on that.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Yeah, but judging by or because of what weekend this was,
that wasn't the most cringe thing on next door anyway, was.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
What you're talking about?

Speaker 1 (25:10):
What I didn't.

Speaker 2 (25:13):
One of my favorite ones, he came in at twelve
one am, was like, do you guys understand or nowhere
this noise is coming from. There's a there's an ordinance,
and it's every year. Yeah, so next door is great,
but now we have ring neighbors. Neighbors app was not

(25:34):
identify anybody. It's just neighbor one or neighbor twenty three.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Oh, neighbor forty nine was spouting off at everybody.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
I was like, learn how to guess?

Speaker 1 (25:42):
It was me.

Speaker 4 (25:43):
Do you end up going around the neighborhood and be like,
who's neighbor forty nine? I know it's one of you.
And do they have to have a ring doorball? Yeah
to be neighbor forty nine?

Speaker 2 (25:53):
Oh yeah, a ring something anonymous.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
They took to next door and they were like, did
you see it. There were a fireball in the sky,
a fireball.

Speaker 6 (26:02):
That has everyone talking on social media today. Check out
these videos showing a streak in the sky.

Speaker 8 (26:08):
Very interesting.

Speaker 6 (26:09):
Western's Michelle Meridith spoke to a man who was driving
to Titusville and caught the curious flash in the sky
on his desk.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
What was it?

Speaker 9 (26:18):
I just said, you know, what is this? That it
was kind of had like five minutes of Oh my gosh,
that's crazy. Actually caught that on video Saturday More.

Speaker 10 (26:27):
It's still dark and suddenly there's a flash like a
scene out of Superman.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
What is it? Like a meteor maybe, or like a
satellite coming back.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
It's going off, though it.

Speaker 4 (26:38):
Does actually look like it's going up, unless that's some
sort of optical illusion or something.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
I can't tell what this is in the sky.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
It's a bird, it's a plan, oh god, whatever it was.

Speaker 10 (26:49):
It had Dalton Rosenfeld gushing.

Speaker 1 (26:52):
It was shocking.

Speaker 9 (26:53):
I just I didn't I didn't know what it was.

Speaker 1 (26:55):
I didn't understand what's going on.

Speaker 10 (26:58):
Start from the beginning, just robbed as a ball of
fire streak. It appeared Saturday just after six in the
morning and some parts of Central.

Speaker 4 (27:09):
I mean it's pretty intention It's a literal streak of
light and fire like akar.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
What's fascinating is that, like when you see something like that,
you go to a whip out your phone. It's already gone,
but this continues. Yeah, and you can get like the
little fireballs in the trail.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
There's something weird about this.

Speaker 4 (27:26):
It maybe was like something breaking up coming back into orbit,
or this was like a meteor and it landed somewhere,
or maybe they have some more details on what's going on.

Speaker 9 (27:35):
For I don't normally see stuff like that flying through
the sky at odd angles. At six eighteen in the morning, ninety.

Speaker 10 (27:42):
Five Dalton saw it, caught it on his dash camera
on his way to work driving I ninety five north
to Berbard County. Got the last bit on a cell phone.

Speaker 9 (27:52):
It was the flashes, the flashes of lights as it
was splitting apart, and then as it split apart, it
separated in the pieces in continue across my field.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
What was this?

Speaker 4 (28:03):
What was this giant flash fireball in the sky six
fifteen am. And they're they're saying, stay with wesh on
this developing story. Well, I just want to know the answer.
What was the fireball in the sky. Let us know
if you know, if you saw it, let us know
tips at the Newsjunkie dot com the Newsjunkie dot com

Speaker 4 (28:27):
So go over to the website and send us a
video or audio dispatch.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
Let us know if you saw this and what the
hell it was. WESH never got to the answer. No,
I didn't know.

Speaker 4 (28:36):
I was told It's like when I say, well, keep
an eye on the story, and I always forget. You know,
they're doing the same thing over at WESH. Stay with
us for developing news.

Speaker 3 (28:45):
I saw a bunch of posts that were saying there
were people saying, you know, meteor or asteroid, and then
there's a bunch of nerdos that were like, the reason
it's not a meteor is because there's parts of it
that are getting off and then that's breaking up. But
there was somebody that claimed to it was like a
chin any satellite that was deorbiting.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
Really, Oh, I mean it kind of makes sense that it
would be like something, but it did look like it
was going up, right, that's just that.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Yeah, that's probably where we are in the rotation.

Speaker 4 (29:14):
Yeah, maybe, yes, Yeah, So if you got more info
on that our space nerds, please do let us know,
send a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com, anonymous emails
tips at the news Junkie dot com and talking about
the honeysock, what they failed to mention in the article
about the honey is that you want it to be
the crystallized honey, he says, when.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
The sugar crystals. People are gonna screw that up.

Speaker 4 (29:36):
When the sugar crystals fall out of honey. As a solution,
obviously it would be in a jar. But crystallized honey
wants to be liquid so it absorbs moisture. Well, they
did not get specific on that.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
They do people with their their a little bear, squeezing
it into a sock, getting it everywhere. Everything's sticky. I
try to get as much as you possibly can in
there that it's just not good. It's not good for anybody.

Speaker 4 (30:00):
All Right, When we come back, we have to talk
about a brand new scam. A weird moment during the
football game yesterday, I believe, and one well there was
there was quite a few that we can talk about here,
and one of them was the sportscaster saying something that
made me cringe.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
Incredibly hard. I've got to play that for you.

Speaker 4 (30:22):
We're gonna tee up for Amy Kaufelt from Fox thirty five.
It's a Friday, so we got a lot going on
that's coming up next.

Speaker 5 (30:27):
And then you use junkie, Hey, it's a Friday on
the show, and then the whole the whole break.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
I'm like worsh for thinking, Man, it happened. Damn.

Speaker 4 (30:51):
It's like one of those things where somebody says, whatever
you do, don't say this, don't say this, don't say this,
and then you say the thing doing your son, I'm
doing your son, and then everything afterwards is all about that.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
It's such a thing like it did bring a little
joy for somebody for a second until you realize it
was Monday.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
But yeah, but I hate to tell you it is Monday.
Yeah it is.

Speaker 4 (31:12):
It is not Friday, as my weird brain told you
there for a second going to the previous break. But
I will tell you this, Tony Romo is cringe.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
Okay. I just want to get out there and say this.
I don't really like how he is when I hear.

Speaker 4 (31:27):
Clips of him in the broadcasting booth during football games,
and I know what you're saying, you're like Sean, who
cares you don't watch sports anyways, it's not for you. Well,
I want to see what sports people think. I want
to know do you think Tony Romo is good? Because
he does a lot of things that I just it
makes me internally cringe pretty hard. Like he dropped a

(31:50):
line this week. Last week we had him moaning where
he was talking in the middle of a sentence, he went.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
Sounded like he threw up or something. Yeah, you have that,
replace it, then you'll see right here, and then another
hold right there. I think it was.

Speaker 4 (32:21):
This is worse. This to me is a crime. It's
not a hate crime, but it's close. It's in the
boundaries of of of those types of crimes. And here's
what he said during this broadcast, which I thought was bad,
but here.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
We fundamentally sound.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
This team is d T F jim Patriots details toughness and.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
They finished which which part is cringe?

Speaker 3 (32:49):
Saying it in the first place or changing it to
something changing change related the.

Speaker 1 (32:55):
Thing that everybody knows.

Speaker 4 (32:57):
And you're like, you say it so people will go
did he just say the team is DTF down to
F And then he goes, actually, I've redone this, So
now it means, oh, I forgot what he said, but
something about.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
Football, details toughness and they finish. Yeah, that's even worse.
It doesn't even make any sense. So he mentally sound,
this team is dt F. Jim Patriots details toughness and
they finished. He said, that's my moniker.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
Yeah, Jim wasn't even on board with it, Bud, he
said nothing.

Speaker 3 (33:31):
But Jim nance said he tried to change the te
to technique. And I couldn't tell if that was actually
something that the coach has said to this team or
if he was just jumping on board this weird little
skit that they're doing.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
Yeah, I who knows anymore. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (33:51):
I don't know what they're doing. Just left it at
the team was DTF. You could say, like you know,
and then with somebody questions to go like they were,
they're good to go down to football would have been
probably the I don't know.

Speaker 1 (34:04):
That sounds better than what he said. What he said
was the biggest stretch of all, Like nobody says, is
what are you talking about?

Speaker 10 (34:12):
Man?

Speaker 1 (34:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (34:13):
Tell me if you think he is cringe football fans
just chime in with us today. What do you think
about Tony Romo because for me, it's a bit much.

Speaker 1 (34:20):
But he was out there.

Speaker 4 (34:22):
Then you had Trump was at one of the games,
which this is weird to me, but you know, no
president apparently since Jimmy Carter has been to a live NFL.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
Game that was sitting president. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this, He's
been to plenty of games.

Speaker 4 (34:41):
Like when it closed my eyes, I feel like I've
seen other presidents go to football.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
Games, but that must be wrong. I've seen Trump go
to other football games.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
I'm pretty sure. I don't know if he was in
office or not at the time, but he showed up
at the college national Championship game at least once, because
I remember everybody was like there was in a single
boo I mean like there were booze.

Speaker 4 (35:04):
Like you got there was some booze. I think at
the game he was at this weekend. I'll see if
I can find this here real quick. But Trump was
out there at the NFL game, and then he was
even in the booth for a while, I guess uh.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
And the players they were well aware of it because
one of them, the Lions player, when he scored, he
did the Trump dance thing. I think this is a
little like yeah, and like you.

Speaker 4 (35:28):
Know, like like he's got strings tied to his fingertips
and he's doing that kind of thing.

Speaker 1 (35:33):
So Scored.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
Puts it in the end zone and the Lions player,
the Detroit Lions player, gets up and he's looking around,
points at the booth where Trump was and then him
and the other team members end up doing that little
like Trump dance. So they were aware that he was
there in the stadium. I guess I can only imagine
the security was crazy.

Speaker 1 (35:54):
He was the guy that got punched too. Yeah he did.
I don't know if that's related or not, but I
saw I saw that hold on.

Speaker 4 (36:01):
This is where he does the dance, right, he does
look a little celebration trump dance. And then in a
couple of plays or something, he's on the field, the
guy who did the Trump dance, and he's walking by.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
And bam, the player just punch too. Yeah, he really
went for I don't know why.

Speaker 4 (36:20):
There must have been something that I'm missing that happen
on the field, because he really boom, just punches this dude.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
Dude suspended now, is he really?

Speaker 4 (36:28):
Because it's blatant like right here, it's just like boom.
You know, you're punching a guy on the field, for
God's sake. They were trying to present this when I
saw it, like people were pissed off about his Trump dance.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
But I seriously doubt that's the case.

Speaker 4 (36:41):
But Trump went in the booth and everything, and he
was like doing a little announcing with the guys up there.

Speaker 1 (36:49):
I didn't hear much of that.

Speaker 3 (36:50):
Do you have that ceiling? I texted you a clip. Okay,
hang on, let me get that. And because when you
said that, something cringe happened. This was before I knew
about the Tony Romo DTF thing, but this was also
quite cringe because what the one commentator tries to fit
in a few times you're like, all right, buddy, let's

(37:10):
let another letter.

Speaker 2 (37:13):
Is it a.

Speaker 1 (37:15):
Thing? All right? Good time? And I loved it. I
actually loved playing football. We had a good time with it.
So we were trying to look up your stats and
we wanted to know how many touchdowns did you have
back then?

Speaker 11 (37:25):
Seven I'm not sure I had any. Its a long
time ago. But at least you realized that I never
tell a lie, right, It wasn't going two hundred miles
an hour that hitch in the face.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
See, that's how you could have played tight end.

Speaker 3 (37:44):
I would have been I would have liked him is
you definitely would have had like six seven.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
I can someone helped these people out.

Speaker 4 (37:56):
That's so much, guys, Just it's a football game. People
are they're already tuned in to watch what you're doing.
You don't have to be the first time. And it
was bad the first time.

Speaker 2 (38:09):
It was to be like doing it.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
Did everybody get my joke? Let me really? Ever didn't
realize that I did the six seventh thing. I'm gonna
try it again.

Speaker 2 (38:18):
It's dead now and it's so bad, and you keep,
like jo just on digging it up and then trying
to bury it again deeper and deeper.

Speaker 4 (38:27):
Everybody in gen Z or Jen Alpha, whoever, who's has
been saying this, they're embarrassed.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
They don't like it. They don't think you're cool for
doing it during the football game.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
But we have just.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
Talk about you talk like your own generation. That's the
best way to do it.

Speaker 4 (38:45):
Everything else comes off as hey, fellow kids, and it
is cringe.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
It is no good.

Speaker 4 (38:51):
So yeah, that he was out there, I guess, and
I just thought that was really weird. I for some reason,
like I thought I could picture Obama being at a
football game when he was.

Speaker 3 (39:00):
Used to have as part of Super Bowl coverage leading
up to the game. There's usually or at least there was,
I think in a lot of the you know, the
Obama years, there was usually an interview with the president.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
But I don't know if the president's ever been.

Speaker 3 (39:17):
There week was It wasn't Donald Trump at the super.

Speaker 1 (39:21):
Bowl last year, But he wasn't the I know he
would have been the president at that time. Was he
at the super Bowl?

Speaker 2 (39:28):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
It's because it just.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
Seems like a whole thing about anyone flying drones within
a five mile radius.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
Well, that's they always did that. Yeah, I think they
always talked.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
About something along these lines.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
It's just weird because it's weird.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
It seems like a natural thing, like presidents just go
to football games. Why because America goes to football games,
and like it seems like that would be a thing.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
I don't know why nobody has done that. I mean,
very strange. I just I read about it.

Speaker 3 (39:55):
I thought the what he said about the flyover was
weirder than just him being like the first president in
a football game in a while, but they did like
a low flyover of Air Force one during the first
quarter or something, and then landed and went to the game,
and he said something like, we have.

Speaker 1 (40:15):
The best pilots. These are the best pilots in the
world and that's why they were able to pull off
such a maneuver.

Speaker 4 (40:19):
I'm like, flying low, lowering the altitude. The flight simulator
seelank can absolutely pull this off.

Speaker 1 (40:28):
Just so you know, this was not like Tom Cruise
buzzing the tower.

Speaker 4 (40:33):
You know, They's say this was a regular season game
and they don't do this sometimes for security issues. Maybe
it just seems like it would be more common, But
there you go. Hit us up tips at the news
junkie dot com. We got a bunch to get to
this uber scam that you should definitely be aware of,
specifically uber drivers. I want to tell you about this.
And then when we come back, Amy Koffel should be

(40:55):
joining us from Fox thirty five. She's the best of
the best and we'll see what she's got going on
in her world and all the latest headlines with Amy
kufeld is coming up next.

Speaker 1 (41:03):
And then to use junk key.

Speaker 4 (41:21):
Fresh back from her wild weekend at Electric Daisy Carnival
in downtown Orlando.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
Our friend Amy Kawfel from Fox thirty five joins us.

Speaker 8 (41:34):
Yeah, so sad, you guys.

Speaker 12 (41:35):
There were so many cool things to do this weekend
and I literally did nothing but try to get the
Christmas tree and running.

Speaker 8 (41:43):
That was my whole weekend.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
Were you successful? Did you get it up?

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Barely?

Speaker 1 (41:47):
All? Right?

Speaker 11 (41:49):
It was.

Speaker 8 (41:49):
Let me just say that it was not the smoothest
process I've ever had.

Speaker 1 (41:53):
Oh really, you do a live tree or not live,
but a real tree or a fake one.

Speaker 13 (41:59):
No.

Speaker 12 (42:00):
We switched to a fake one a couple of years
ago because I was the only one who would water it.
I was the only one who wait clean up after it.
So I was like, I'm done with the real trees.
We're going fake and so, but my mistake that I
made was buying the pre lit fakes. As you guys know,
like the pre lit is not a this is not
a forever thing. This is like it's good for a

(42:20):
couple of years, and then it's just like hodgepodge every
other light.

Speaker 8 (42:24):
Nothing works.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
It's buying that warm light is impossible.

Speaker 5 (42:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (42:30):
Yeah, And they make it look so easy in the
YouTube videos and it's.

Speaker 1 (42:33):
Not it's not no, it's not no.

Speaker 4 (42:35):
You know, one of the things I saw I was
scrolling a little bit on Saturday, I think, or Sunday,
and I saw Amy Coffell do a post and I go, look,
Amy Coffel is just the most amazing person in the
world at connecting people. I guess because a viewer I
think came to you, Amy Coffell and was like, I
have this dog and it's.

Speaker 1 (42:57):
An adorable dog.

Speaker 4 (42:59):
The dog has three legs, right, and the person goes, hey, Amy,
can you help me out? They wanted specifically the ceiling
and Sabrina. They wanted specifically the dog that had three
legs to go to a home of a person who
also was missing a limb. Got it and Amy Kaufelt

(43:20):
knows enough people to make that happen. Yes, connected, did
this work out? How did this go?

Speaker 10 (43:28):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (43:28):
My gosh?

Speaker 1 (43:28):
Okay.

Speaker 8 (43:28):
So, first of all, so this is the craziest thing.

Speaker 12 (43:32):
So several years ago, we had the sweetest story of
this little boy and it's called limb difference. So this
little boy named Joseph who had a limb difference. Well,
Joseph went viral for this beautiful video that he made
with a woman who was also limb different.

Speaker 8 (43:47):
Her name is Amy.

Speaker 12 (43:48):
So that's how this all started. So it started with
me meeting Amy through the Tyd family. Well then that
ballooned into the Tid family reached out to me and
they said, by chance, do you know anybody with you
Orlando Pride, because we're going to the games to meet Carson.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
Right, you're talking about yeveral.

Speaker 8 (44:05):
Years ago, Sabrina.

Speaker 12 (44:06):
You remember that the Carson Pickett has been with your
Landa Pride twice now, right, so she was with your
Orlanta Pride, she left, she came back. So when Orlando,
when Carson was with the Pride the first go around,
we set it up with our friend Jackie Maynard, who's
not with the Pride anymore, but Jackie hell Love set
it up so that so that Carson and.

Speaker 8 (44:24):
Joseph could meet, which was like this beautiful story.

Speaker 2 (44:27):
So like so they did said.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
Years ago, sweet, all right, and so so you ad.

Speaker 12 (44:36):
This all of this leads to me remembering Amy. When
when it came time for this woe, this woman reaches
out to me. She's like, do you know anybody who
has a limb difference who would be interested in having
this adorable puppy named Charlie. I kid you not when
I tell you he's the cutest poppy I have ever seen.
He looks like a little teddy bear. So I was like, well,
let me ask my friend Amy. So I asked Amy,

(44:57):
and she said, well, I live in the Saint Pete
Clearwater area. But she's like, you know, I'll see if
I can find somebody. So then I sent her a
picture and she's like, oh, I'm coming to meet that
dog myself.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
Guy. Imagine, imagine dog. Imagine you get a photo of
this dog.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Right now.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
Leg. Yeah, yep, this dog.

Speaker 8 (45:16):
There's Amy. There's Amy with him. Yeah, And you can
see Amy.

Speaker 12 (45:19):
Has a limb difference and actually her it's her right
her right arm rounder her right front arms missing, which
is also in Charlie's case, it's right his right front leg.

Speaker 10 (45:29):
Uh huh.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
But he can move around all right and go yeah.

Speaker 12 (45:32):
Yeah, I mean, you know, he hobbles a little bit,
but but yeah. So the plan is Amy said that
their family, what they're going to do, her husband works
at a children's hospital, is that they're going to have
him trained to be a therapy dog, and that he
will then go to the Children's Hospital and if there
are kids who have a limb difference, or there kids
who just need some love and some therapy that Charlie
will do.

Speaker 1 (45:52):
How are we supposed to compete with you when you
do stuff like this?

Speaker 11 (45:56):
How?

Speaker 12 (45:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (45:58):
Like I why why attempt to be a good person?
When you'll go I helped an old lady across the
street this weekend and Amy Coffin will be like, here's
what I did.

Speaker 7 (46:07):
Why I'm not doing it for that, Belie.

Speaker 2 (46:12):
Honestly it's stuff like this though with our line of work,
knowing the connections that you have and you're able to
bring everybody together, it's so incredible.

Speaker 7 (46:20):
Yeah, tidbits.

Speaker 2 (46:22):
I mean I remember meeting them. I think it would
been ten years ago because I met the little boy
when he was four.

Speaker 8 (46:28):
Three or four, and I was that when he first
met Carson. Do you remember that?

Speaker 1 (46:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (46:33):
Oh, and I was like on the field and then
they like you saw the like this light in his
eyes because he was looking at someone who had the
same limb. What do you call it?

Speaker 1 (46:45):
Different?

Speaker 2 (46:46):
Different?

Speaker 1 (46:46):
Do they say that?

Speaker 4 (46:47):
Because if you say like missing an arm, They're like,
I'm not missing my arm.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
This, Uh you know, I this is how I am right.

Speaker 8 (46:54):
Now, now you're like, I am, I am limbed different.

Speaker 12 (46:56):
In a lot of cases, like in Charlie the Dog's case,
amniotic fluid was wrapped around his his leg while he
was in the womb, and so what happened is that
it separated the h the front of his paw from
from the rest of it and so he lost it
in vitro which.

Speaker 1 (47:14):
And not tripod missed opportunity.

Speaker 12 (47:17):
Do you guys remember Shaquem Griffin who played for UCF. Yeah,
so he also was limbdifferent, exact same.

Speaker 8 (47:23):
Thing happened to him. Amnotic fluid.

Speaker 12 (47:25):
He was a twin wrapped around his arm and everybody said, oh,
there's no way he's going to play in the NFL.

Speaker 8 (47:31):
Guess what he went on to play in the NFL.
He played for the Seattle Seahawks.

Speaker 12 (47:34):
That's Christy, So yeah, I mean there's it's it's pretty incredible.

Speaker 2 (47:37):
Yeah, what a great connection, Amy, that Yeah, that's pretty beautiful.

Speaker 1 (47:42):
That's pretty amazing. So good for you on that one.

Speaker 4 (47:44):
This is one of about eight billion reasons why you
should follow Fox thirty five Amy on Instagram because it's
it's like these kind of things, because I'm scrolling through
and I'm watching all these like very political people try
to ruin every section of the Internet that is out there,
like everything must be about annoying politics stuff. And then
I see an Amy Coffel post and I go, thank.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
God, all right, faith in humanity restored. Look at this
freaking dog, you know that? God? God. Anyways, it's been a.

Speaker 8 (48:15):
Bad couple of weeks, hasn't it.

Speaker 4 (48:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (48:17):
I think we're finally at the end of it. I
think there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

Speaker 1 (48:21):
I believe you think. I think I did have ten
days to close it up because I gotta get to
fly him. So, yeah, are you.

Speaker 8 (48:28):
Are you heading somewhere for Thanksgiving?

Speaker 1 (48:30):
No, we just headed to New York the week before Thanksgiving. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (48:36):
Yeah, those are those are two you know, high traffic
airports that are losing flights here.

Speaker 8 (48:43):
Yeah, ten days, you should be good.

Speaker 1 (48:45):
It's been a little rough at the airports.

Speaker 4 (48:47):
I'm sure that was one of the big things you
were talking about today on the show. And even if
they because it looks like there's a government deal in
the works to open things back up, but I guess
that will still take a little bit of time. And
then you have to get everything kicked out. And then
we have the President saying today that the Patriot FA
people who haven't taken any days off and have worked
every day might get a ten thousand dollars bonus, which

(49:09):
I didn't know that you could do that. I didn't
know that you have the ability to do that. Perhaps
you do, perhaps you don't, but we'll we'll see if
that's the case.

Speaker 8 (49:18):
Yeah, we'll see what happens. I mean, you know, kudos.

Speaker 12 (49:20):
I'm sure a lot of them would have liked to
have known that before they comment a couple of days off.
But you know, for some of these people, can you
imagine going thirty plus days without getting a paycheck?

Speaker 2 (49:29):
I mean that give a family.

Speaker 12 (49:30):
Most people in this country, and you guys know most
people in this country live paycheck to paycheck sadly, and
if you were to miss two paychecks for a lot
of people, you're done. Like that's you know, you can't
pay your rent, you're behind on all your bills.

Speaker 8 (49:44):
It's just this domino effect.

Speaker 2 (49:46):
So I mean after a month, I mean, if you
have a landlord or property manager, that's like sorry, not
considering it.

Speaker 1 (49:53):
You could be Yeah, yeah, that does suck.

Speaker 4 (49:56):
Like just the idea that you would go, hey, can
you understand here's my circumstance, and then I don't even
know if they would have to legally, But hopefully that
is going to resolve itself or be resolved before Thanksgiving
when everybody's starting to travel even more, because that's not
too far away.

Speaker 1 (50:16):
What else was gravity your attention with the other big.

Speaker 8 (50:19):
There's this wild story. It's really sad.

Speaker 12 (50:22):
There's a young lady is eighteen year old Anna Kaepner
from Titusville, who went out on the Carnival Horizon cruise
ship over the weekend, and there's some mystery surrounding what happened.
But she died, so she local high school girl. She
would have graduated in May. They're not saying much about

(50:45):
what happened, only that she did not come back alive.

Speaker 8 (50:50):
Thing happened on the cruise ship. What's that?

Speaker 1 (50:55):
That's all the information we're getting from this. She's very young.

Speaker 12 (50:58):
Yeah, they're just saying authorities have real least very few details,
including how she died or even who she was traveling with.

Speaker 8 (51:05):
But she she went to a local high school.

Speaker 12 (51:08):
She was a varsity cheerleader, so they said she was
just loved by everyone that knew her.

Speaker 8 (51:13):
She had great energy. She helped out at her.

Speaker 12 (51:16):
Grandparents' fifty five plus community as a volunteer. It says
that she's been taking gymnastics since she was two years old,
and she was a talented gymnast.

Speaker 2 (51:24):
Her family, I mean, everybody on social media at all.
What's that Her family is not spoken out on social media.

Speaker 12 (51:33):
There are some rumors about what happened to her, but
at this point they're just rumors, and you know, we
don't report that, so we are just waiting for some
type of some type of confirmation. But the FBI is
now investigating because, as you guys know, it gets complicated
when something happens out over the ocean, right and a
cruise ship, you are not necessarily you're not going to
be always bound by local law. So even though the

(51:54):
cruise ship left from Florida, that doesn't mean that Florida
investigators would take over. So at this we're just waiting
for more information from the FBI about what happened.

Speaker 4 (52:03):
But wow, yeah, it's crazy, just eighteen years old, whole
life ahead of you, and then the tragedy strikes like
that and the details are still coming together. So We'll
keep an eye on that story. What else is grabbing
your attention out there?

Speaker 8 (52:15):
I mean, we have another story out of Orange County.
This one's really sad.

Speaker 12 (52:18):
Two four year old twins somehow got a hold of
mom and dad's gun and they we don't know exactly
how it happened, but they both ended up shopped so
they This is an Orange County in Orlando. The kids,
the parents actually took the kids to the hospital. So
the parents are now in trouble. The mom's been charged
with child neglect. The dad's been charged with possession of

(52:40):
a firearm by a convicted felon. So we're still waiting
on more details about this one. We're told that they're
in critical but stable condition. But again, the dad, I guess,
apparently had some prior felonies in his past. We're not
supposed to have a gun at the house, but they did,
and the little four year old twins got ahold of it.

Speaker 1 (52:59):
Wait a second, So if the dad is a convicted
felon and he's not allowed to have a gun, does
that mean his wife, the mom, can't have a gun either.

Speaker 8 (53:09):
Well that's a good question. See Lynn, I'm not sure
exactly how that works.

Speaker 12 (53:12):
My guess would be that because they're in a household together, right,
that that would that would complicate it, right, because you
live together. So therefore, if he's not allowed to have
a gun.

Speaker 2 (53:24):
I mean, we've seen that and it's still kind of blurry.
But someone who is on probation that cannot be anywhere
near drugs or alcohol has gotten their probation revoked because
someone in the household had supul. Now I am very
confused as to one gun and both twins end up shot.

Speaker 12 (53:45):
Yeah, so were they one laying right next to each
other when they were playing with it?

Speaker 1 (53:48):
I don't know.

Speaker 12 (53:49):
We still were still waiting on more details, so we
just know that she said that they talked to both
the parents' parents said they heard a loud, popping noise.
The dad said he was in the kitchen at the
time making breakfast, or actually the mom said that. Mom says,
I was in the kitchen making breakfast for the family.
She said that she was making it for her and
her five children, so other kids in the house, and

(54:10):
the dad said he was on the back porch and
they heard the gunshot.

Speaker 4 (54:13):
She is, Yeah, another story that I know you guys
touched on this morning. I just need answers, Amy, I
need answers. Yeah, because everybody in my neighborhood was freaking
out about that mysterious fireball in the sky and this
guy and we we were looking at it on the
show today.

Speaker 1 (54:29):
We were seeing this fireball that people captured.

Speaker 4 (54:32):
We sell the Fox thirty five report even about this
thing streaking across the sky and it was pretty crazy looking.

Speaker 1 (54:38):
But do they have any idea what the heck this
thing was?

Speaker 12 (54:41):
Nope, we're still waiting to find out, Sean. I mean,
if I had to guess, I'm guessing it was probably
some space junk.

Speaker 3 (54:48):
But you know, I read Chinese booster that was in
orbit that they diorbited Chinese booster. But yeah, space junker
is you know that would.

Speaker 2 (54:59):
Be what that was was beautiful piece of junk.

Speaker 4 (55:02):
It was quite a show. Yeah, it was quite a
show in the sky. And you know, a lot of
people apparently were not prepared to see this. They did
not know this was going to happen, and it kind
of renders a lot of people just absolutely instidumb. When
something flies by in the sky and there's like a
streak of fire, you stop everything you do and you

(55:23):
film and people went nuts for it in the neighborhood.
They were like, they had theories of aliens and all
sorts of things, but probably some space junks.

Speaker 8 (55:32):
As we have said, that's the theory. And I mean
there's a lot of space.

Speaker 12 (55:35):
Did you guys see that there's some Chinese astronauts who
are now stranded in space because some space junk hit
their spacecraft.

Speaker 8 (55:41):
They're trying to figure ot how they're going to get
home now.

Speaker 1 (55:43):
Yeah, but at least they have an air fryer up there.

Speaker 3 (55:46):
They do only in space air fryer that's on that
Chinese space station that we didn't even know existed until
they started screwing stuff up.

Speaker 12 (55:54):
So they were food funny ceiling You said that because
I consider myself a little bit of a space nerd,
and I was like, wait, the China, these have their
own space space.

Speaker 7 (56:02):
How did I not know?

Speaker 2 (56:03):
This was very new to all of them.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
Yeah, yeah, we were trying to learn about it. Apparently
it's not anywhere near as big as our space station,
but it is pretty big. And as Celia said, they
just debuted an.

Speaker 3 (56:15):
Air fryer up there, and their space previously had the
first space microwave up there and then they they built
them this like extra like they had to re engineer
and like super engineer it so that the little bits
of stuff doesn't fly everywhere and get into all the
other equipment.

Speaker 1 (56:33):
But they have the first air fryer. What a time
to be alive now and in space. It's just unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (56:40):
The people that walked on the moon are like, we
just had these little pouches of stuff that we just
squeeze in the air and some.

Speaker 4 (56:47):
Uh huh, all right, it is always our favorite part
of the week. And you just observed exactly why that
is the case because Amy kall Fell from Fox thirty
five is the best.

Speaker 1 (56:56):
Of the tomorrow cold front, Yeah, yeah, how cold are
going to get?

Speaker 5 (57:02):
Do?

Speaker 1 (57:02):
We knowending on where you.

Speaker 12 (57:05):
Live, but yeah, it's going to drop down into the
thirties for most of Central Florida overnight, so it's gonna
be cold.

Speaker 1 (57:11):
Turn the heat on, all right.

Speaker 4 (57:12):
Watch every single morning if you're here in Orlando, you
and your friends should be tuning into Good Day Orlando
no matter where you are listening to the show today,
I'm telling you, when you have your like your handful
of websites to start things out on, one should be
Fox thirty five Orlando dot Com because that's a really
great look at just everything happening. And the other thing
should be Amykawfeld on social media. So search for her

(57:35):
Amy Kaufel on all social media platforms and give her
a follow.

Speaker 1 (57:39):
We'll see you next week.

Speaker 8 (57:39):
Amy, Thanks you guys, Love you for sure.

Speaker 1 (57:42):
Amy Kawfel from Fox thirty five.

Speaker 4 (57:44):
Back in just a moment. When we return, we'll talk
about this brand news scam hitting the world of uber.
You don't want to get caught up in this, and
I'll be honest with you, it's clever. It's clever. It
might even trick you, as smart as you are. What
is it that's coming up next? Done the News Junkie.

(58:18):
We will be through this week before you know it.
We're just glad to have you on board. We got
emails coming in like this one. Samantha emails Tips at
The Newsjunkie dot com and she says, Hey, Sean, I've
been a long time listener and I listened to the podcast.

Speaker 1 (58:31):
Well, thank you for that, Samantha, and for.

Speaker 4 (58:34):
The video you played about the cops stopping the man
riding a bull. I just wanted to chime in for
those of you who don't remember this, there was a
story on I think Friday. The cops were called out
and it was bodycam footage and audio of the cop
going to like a Walmart or something, and there was
a man on a bull that there was many police

(58:55):
calls about for some reason, and so the cop ended
up getting on the bull and all that stuff. They
this person, Samantha says, we're a rodeo family. My son
wrestles steers and my daughter rides speed events. Sabrina mentioned
rodeo is doing something with the bulls testicles to get
them mad for bucking. That's actually a misconception that we

(59:17):
like to help people understand because the rodeo gets a
bad rep sometime. It's actually called a flank strap and
it's snug but not tight, and it doesn't have anything
to do with the bulls testicles. When they're young, they're
taught that the expectation of behavior when wearing this strap
is to bucking, go wild.

Speaker 1 (59:35):
It's training.

Speaker 4 (59:36):
When this trap comes off, they stop bucking and so
they're chill. You also asked if bulls and cows can
be ridden like that Structurally, their skeletons are more sound
for riding than horses.

Speaker 1 (59:45):
But we ride horses because they're more comfortable for us.

Speaker 4 (59:48):
Interesting, and just for the record, horses are a lot smarter,
she said. Anyways, thanks for the great show. Love you guys,
says Samantha the rodeo lady.

Speaker 1 (59:59):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:00:00):
It was I'm very curious. Does this mean that we
can go to Samantha's house and she could teach us
how to ride a bucking bucking cow?

Speaker 1 (01:00:10):
She said, they were.

Speaker 4 (01:00:12):
You sound like you're censoring yourself, but she said that
they were a rodeo family, so.

Speaker 2 (01:00:17):
I would imagine, like I would love to do it.

Speaker 1 (01:00:20):
You're not living in a high rise. If you're a
rodeo fan.

Speaker 2 (01:00:23):
Probably not know that might be your second home. My
orthopedic surgeon would say absolutely not to this, but yolo,
I would love as long as not hurting the bull
to learn.

Speaker 1 (01:00:36):
Yeah, my god, I don't know. That seems uh, that's scary.

Speaker 2 (01:00:41):
That's it's exciting to me.

Speaker 1 (01:00:43):
How much is a bull weigh one thousand pounds? More
than one thousand pounds?

Speaker 4 (01:00:48):
Yeah right, there's a bit of big animals. Bulls gotta
be fifteen hundred pounds.

Speaker 3 (01:00:54):
The average adult bull weighs between eleven and twenty two
hundred pounds.

Speaker 1 (01:01:00):
Oh my god, that's a big ass animal, man, and
you're riding on top of that thing.

Speaker 4 (01:01:05):
And if it got forbid, like I think of, a
bull kicks you in the head, you're probably done though, right,
it's gonna scramble everything.

Speaker 1 (01:01:13):
I don't know that a bull kicks you in the
head though, unless you're doing the the bucking thing and
you have fallen off. Yeah, it could be that.

Speaker 4 (01:01:22):
Okay, I wanted to tell you this since I tease
it earlier. Beware Uber drivers.

Speaker 1 (01:01:26):
This is for real. This is an actual thing that's
happening out there. And there's a couple of stories about this.

Speaker 3 (01:01:31):
When you tease this, you said there's an uber scam,
and you said it's a pretty decent one that anybody
could fall for.

Speaker 1 (01:01:39):
But is it just for drivers or is it for
riders as well?

Speaker 4 (01:01:43):
This is for drivers that this is happening, And this
headline says what just happened? Uber driver warns of ride
share scam stealing drivers money and Channel six has this story.
I said, many people drive for ride share companies the
or an extra cash. Ryan Lapperscenari, a forty five year

(01:02:04):
old single dad who works three.

Speaker 1 (01:02:06):
Jobs, including driving for Uber. Good for you, Buddy shared
his experiences for the mailba. He says, I just work
it part time. People are being scammed to their hard
earned money. So he explained how this this whole scam works.

Speaker 5 (01:02:22):
Right.

Speaker 4 (01:02:22):
So he says he was picking up a rider when
he got a call from somebody claiming to be Uber's
support and they said, I'm sorry to inform you this,
but you're currently under investigation for drinking on the job.

Speaker 1 (01:02:34):
And he obviously takes that very seriously. He says, I'm
confused and I'm in shock.

Speaker 4 (01:02:38):
And they're going to look into the actual rider's account
who made the report, and see if there was anything
that looked fraudulent. So they asked him a bunch of
questions for about half an hour, and the caller goes, no,
we looked into this. We think this was a false claim,
and so what we want to do now is credit
your Uber account for this time that you've spent on

(01:02:59):
this phone call that you could have been giving Uber
rides to people. We want to pay you back because
it was a fraudulent claim that you were drinking behind
the wheel of your Uber. And the caller said, here's
what I need you to do open up your Uber wallet,
and they said enter this number, and the moment he
entered the number, not only did it not give him money,

(01:03:20):
but it drained his account of the four hundred and
eighty nine dollars and eighty cents that was in it.
And he said, I see a zero balance and I'm
in shock. I'm like, oh my god, what just happened.
He immediately reported the incident to Uber and filed a claim.
It was denied because there was no indication of an
account takeover. So basically, these people pretend like there's a

(01:03:42):
claim against you for doing something wrong, They pretend like
they're investigating you, and then they pretend like they're going
to do the right thing because this was all fraudulent,
and put some additional money in your account.

Speaker 1 (01:03:53):
Do not give up your information like that if.

Speaker 4 (01:03:55):
You're an Uber driver, because if you do, you could
get completely screwed over, just like this guy did other
Uber drivers.

Speaker 1 (01:04:03):
If you've heard of this, or if this has happened
to you or somebody else you know, let us know.

Speaker 4 (01:04:08):
Tips at the news Junkie dot com, Tips at thenewsjunkie
dot com. Send your dispatch in right now. All right,
let's work in our first dispatches of the day. We
can do one or two of these. Here, here's somebody
talking about that mysterious flash of light in the sky.

Speaker 1 (01:04:24):
What's up, news junkies?

Speaker 13 (01:04:26):
Hey, the meteor in question or the flash of light
through the sky, from what I understand, was a Chinese
booster that broke apart, or some kind of failed space
mission by the Chinese.

Speaker 1 (01:04:41):
Or coulby aliens.

Speaker 13 (01:04:43):
Maybe okay, no one really is probably just a Chinese
booster making entry into our earth.

Speaker 1 (01:04:51):
Again, why do we never get ahead of this? Why
is it ever?

Speaker 4 (01:04:54):
Like, Hey, if you look up at six o'clock in
the morning, you might see a booster in the sky.

Speaker 2 (01:05:00):
Seeing the technology is there if we have all three
of us have an app that we can open it
up and see what planes, helicopters are above us, their routes,
what's flying? So why not give us the heads up
if there's going to be a flame ball?

Speaker 4 (01:05:17):
Yeah, space debris alert, say looking for that marketing. If
you're seeing this up there in the sky right now,
just you know, not to be alarmed. It's not an invasion.
I think all that stuff, I think that.

Speaker 3 (01:05:31):
You know, there were some indicators, but they come from
like the nerdiest of space nerd that most of us.

Speaker 1 (01:05:38):
Just don't follow. Too off the radar. It can happen
one more real quick, here's TD.

Speaker 12 (01:05:44):
Okay, we all know it.

Speaker 14 (01:05:45):
Don't talk like the younger generations because it is super gross.
And I'm your generation, Sean, and you just did it, dude.
You're saying cringe, like over and over and it's making
me cringe. What because you're saying cringe, get out of
the words.

Speaker 1 (01:06:02):
So let's just say it was not cool or bogus
or whatever. Bogus. Bogus is worse than cringe. Cringes. Anybody
can use cringe.

Speaker 4 (01:06:12):
I think cringe is exciting, whether it's out or not.
She's saying, like I'm too old to say cringe. So
what I'm saying cringe. It is cringe, and I should
say bogus. I said bogus it would be cramped.

Speaker 3 (01:06:25):
But cringe is just a real thing, Like it's a
real thing that you do, you know, as a reaction
to stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:06:31):
Yeah, I literally am cringing level.

Speaker 1 (01:06:35):
I can't do that.

Speaker 4 (01:06:37):
No, no, no, no, no, no bogus or whatever we
said in the olden days. She said, thank you tit
for the dispatch. Appreciate it when we come back the
next episode with Sabrina. What's coming up on the next episode?

Speaker 2 (01:06:49):
What's going on the next aid? I've got the rock
and Roll Hall of Fame highlights and girl, you won't
believe this is true. The thirteenth day of Christmas, our
true love gave to us a lifetime pick a Ball
Christmas movie. Plus the police were called to this celebrities
birthday party and for good reason. I'll add so much

(01:07:11):

the lead singer of this group, right, he extra point
for whom roads goes to the sea lane. And it
was on this day he was found a good guilty
for inciting a riot at Saint Louis Riverport Amphitheater.

Speaker 1 (01:09:29):
Rock and Roll was the riot over.

Speaker 2 (01:09:35):
I think they couldn't videotape if I remember correctly, because
it was on this day that he received his sentencing.
Oh okay, but he was arrested weeks prior to Darius,
even months, and I think it was like he got
it was over sold and people didn't get in, or
it was he yelled at somebody for videotaping. It was

(01:09:56):
like one camquarder on some guy's shoulder.

Speaker 1 (01:09:59):
He used to get up, sat at a lot of things.

Speaker 4 (01:10:02):
Yeah, yeah, I think less, so he seems more chill
now Axel Rose does.

Speaker 2 (01:10:07):
But yeah, he was given a suspended sentence in order
to donate ten thousand dollars to various charities. So there
you have it, rock and roll baby, And speaking of

Speaker 2 (01:12:04):
No means Jack White accepted the owner for the White Stripes.
Meg continued her fifteen year streak of not being seen
anywhere ever, no confirmation if she's even alive at this point.

Speaker 4 (01:12:16):
You know what this streak is, and it's one of
the best ongoing stupid pranks that he's still pretending it's
his sister or is it his wife, excell or is
it both.

Speaker 2 (01:12:27):
I know everyone thought they were brother and sister, but
they actually were married and then kept.

Speaker 1 (01:12:33):
The band going. Yes, yeah, and I think he still
like plays into that. He'll be like, get my sister,
and he's still keeping the scam going.

Speaker 2 (01:12:41):
Speaking of playing into things, this was a first and
I believe decades. I will confirm with our boy Fritz.
But they inducted Iggy Pop, who wore a shirt and
a jacket on top of it.

Speaker 1 (01:12:55):
Wow. Wow.

Speaker 2 (01:12:58):
Iggy Pop is known to not have shirt so much
so that, like you have seen all the damage he's
done to his body because he can't. He kind of
looks like a half what noodle when he's walking around.
Have you seen this.

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
I've seen him with his shirt off. I thought he
usually looks like like hobo ripped. Like he looks like
he had.

Speaker 2 (01:13:17):
Off to the side because he's it's like some weird
school the.

Speaker 1 (01:13:21):
Guy that you saw get hit by a train, Like
that guy was hobo ripped.

Speaker 4 (01:13:24):
Yeah, Like he's true, he's got muscles, but it's something
not fully right about his arms are a little droopy.

Speaker 1 (01:13:31):
I'm looking at him here, but.

Speaker 2 (01:13:33):
He's just it's yeah, it's off to the side. But
good for him. Congratulations, it's a look and congrats on
his arms for feeling cloth on them for the first
time in thirty forty years. Also just circling back and
ending the whole Rock and Roll Hall of Fame stuff
Salt and Peppa when they were inducted into the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame. DJ Spinderella has become the

Speaker 4 (01:14:25):
Yeah, And I just want to look at this really,

Speaker 2 (01:14:31):
Let him get there, Sealion, before you took it away.

Speaker 4 (01:14:34):

Speaker 2 (01:15:14):
Millie Vanilli has been uh nominating the category of Best
Audiobook Narration and Storytelling Recording.

Speaker 1 (01:15:22):
Wouldn't it be a real fake that.

His memoir is? You know it's true, the real story?
If Millie Vanilli and his competition include Supreme Court Justice
uh Kintanji Brown Jackson and just Little the Dali Lama
Oh best of luck. But if fab is victorious, this
would not be his first Grammy win. It would be
the one that is not stripped from him for lip

(01:15:52):
syncing and time do be a flying? So how about
I give you the boob Tube? We got football baby,
we have the trackers and the Eagles. Hey you guys,

The voice part three of the Knockout Rounds also shout
out to be doves or a good friend of the show.
Oh yeah, I saw him on Dancing with the Stars
because Nicole loves that show.

Speaker 1 (01:16:25):
What was he doing on there?

Speaker 2 (01:16:27):
Audience like Nick look and I pause and she's like,
I can't see it. So dark and like he's right
by the hashtag of d w t S.

Speaker 1 (01:16:38):
He got his picture with Danielle Fischell official fish. Yeah
that's cool, Okay, very cool.

Speaker 2 (01:16:46):
The serious mayor of bat fan on Amazon. And you
can catch Billy Bob Thornton on Fallon follow your Dreams
of you on Instagram at spreen Ambrough. Most importantly they
with me America SMO every day.

Speaker 1 (01:17:00):
Thank you, Sabrina.

Speaker 3 (01:17:01):
You got his picture with other people, but I didn't.
I recognized Topanga the most.

Speaker 4 (01:17:05):
Yeah, Robert, what what is Billy Bob Thornton in right
now that he's doing press? Because he's like I've seen
him on others still still or are we doing different
stuff from landman? Is you know what's weird about Billy
Bob Thornton. He somehow became this like figurehead for like

(01:17:26):
a a Southern American when he I think he's a
Canadian and he's not even like a country guy, but
Kansas this is is.

Speaker 2 (01:17:37):
He part of zeiling if you don't mind looking at
a Broadways chess because I have Billy Bob Thornton, Aaron Veat,
Leah Michelle and Nicholas Christopher all coming on Fallon and
then it says performance from Broadways Chess. So I'm thinking
that's all tied together because you don't have that many

(01:17:58):
people in one late night show said it weird. I'm altogether.

Speaker 4 (01:18:02):
Oh, I see him is in the cell phone commercials
where he pretends to be like a redneck, and I'm like,
this guy is not a red nick.

Speaker 15 (01:18:09):
His name is Billy Bob dude, I know, but why
why did he become like the caricature of a redneck?

Speaker 1 (01:18:15):
And Billy hold on? Is that his even? Is that?
It's not even his real name?

Speaker 15 (01:18:20):
Is it Billy Bob Thornton, William Robert Thornton. I believe
it says it says Billy Bob Thornton. It gives it
as his actual name unless he's lying. He has been
married a few times. Just for the record, he has
been not just Angelina Joelee. But he's got one, two, three,
four five under his belt.

Speaker 1 (01:18:40):
Six. Oh yeah, you're right. He's on the is on
the sixth there. Uh yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:18:46):
I don't know what he's in these days, but I
guess he's he's back in something now where they're having
him do all these press door things.

Speaker 1 (01:18:52):
We're going at a quick break when we come back.

Speaker 4 (01:18:54):
I want to talk about somebody who is all of
a sudden being hated in Hollywood, all right, not a
Sydney Sweeney. If you want to address that, you could
do that on the dispatch side. But I think that
whole thing is just a crazy online thing. This one
seems more real, all right. It's a guy who like
sort of roped everybody in.

Speaker 2 (01:19:12):
We want to exactly what you're talking and people people like.

Speaker 4 (01:19:16):
This guys, And a lot of times when stuff comes
out about somebody like this, I'll be like, Okay, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:19:21):
What's really going on here. But this guy, there's something
about him where I think maybe he is actually not
the greatest.

Speaker 4 (01:19:30):
But we'll dive into these details. That's coming up in
just a bit, and a terrible idea I'd have to
stop this in its tracks before it becomes more popular.
That is coming up next in the news Chunky.

Speaker 1 (01:19:59):
Good News.

Speaker 4 (01:20:00):
Forrest has finished the first edit of the Roast Event.
The first edit is done, and I saw the ending
of it and it's so fantastic. Some of the behind
the scenes stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:20:12):
Is so good. I think people are gonna love this nice.

Speaker 4 (01:20:16):
And then the way I think that we'll put this
out there is because I thought about this, I was like,
it's too long. It's like two hours. It's way too long.
It needs to be cut down to less than ninety minutes.
Between sixty and ninety minutes, I think. But instead of
just doing that and then releasing the full roast, anybody
who gets the roast, you'll be able to see each

(01:20:38):
person's raw full set, so like bonus materials will include
all the actual full sets from each person who was
at the roast, so you can see anything that you
might have missed. And then we have a whole behind
the scenes thing and all of that all available before
too long. Here when we get that all set and
running over on theewsjunkie dot com. So it's exciting. It

(01:20:59):
looks really really good. Can't wait until everybody gets to
see that before too long. Meanwhile, this is the worst
idea I think I've heard in a while. And we
know a couple of things. You know, no matter where
you're at on the map, politically, I think you can
understand something pretty simple.

Speaker 1 (01:21:19):
Housing is expensive.

Speaker 4 (01:21:21):
Right now, I heard, I hear all these takes about
like why the mom Donnie guy one in New York.
If you listen to the people who voted it was
so many like college educated young people who are New
York City poor, who are pissed off about how much
everything costs. That's literally the reason, besides how bad the
other candidates like Cuomo were, is literally the reason why

(01:21:44):
Mom Donnie won.

Speaker 1 (01:21:45):
In New York.

Speaker 4 (01:21:46):
Housing for young people is expensive. The average age of
homeowners keeps going up and up and up and up
and up because the.

Speaker 1 (01:21:54):
Price of housing is expensive.

Speaker 4 (01:21:57):
Let's say you get a job right out of college
and you're making sixty five seventy thousand dollars a year,
you have to get all your affairs in order. First,
you have to save up money for a down payment,
even though you've got all these other bills out there
in your life. You have to financially stabilize yourself so
that you can afford a mortgage payment each month.

Speaker 1 (01:22:19):
And then to get the house that you actually want.
It's quite expensive.

Speaker 4 (01:22:25):
It's pretty expensive, and not even just in like New
York City and in most cities. New houses are expensive
and in limited supply, and new cars are very very expensive. God, so,
like what I think we said on the show, not
that long ago, the average car was up to like
fifty thousand is.

Speaker 1 (01:22:42):
That too high?

Speaker 2 (01:22:44):
You know, I'm still on the market, still looking around.
And there was this Toyota that I saw in you know,
HQ parking lot where it wasn't necessarily interested in Toyota,
but I know they're reliable cars. I look it up
and it was seventy five thousand dollars and I my
car thirteen twelve or thirteen years ago off the lot

(01:23:06):
twenty three. So that well, I'm never going to see
that again.

Speaker 1 (01:23:10):
No, probably not. There are some there are still some
cheaper ones like are you against the idea of a
Tesla or an electric vehicle? Are you against it?

Speaker 2 (01:23:18):
I'm not against it. A just hybrid, great, I'm totally
up for it. Electric is a whole different lifestyle, you know.
So yeah, you got to driving that.

Speaker 1 (01:23:28):
I do. It's people get the range anxiety, they get it.
They like they go, oh god, I don't know. I
don't know if I want to do this, and.

Speaker 4 (01:23:35):
Then I because it seems more difficult than getting gas
in your car and stuff. But I just say that
because some of the Teslas are actually a pretty good
deal as.

Speaker 1 (01:23:43):
Far as cars go.

Speaker 4 (01:23:45):
There you can get a steal on this, but cars
and houses are expensive. For young people in particular, to
get a house, to become a homeowner, it's very, very tough.

Speaker 1 (01:23:55):
You get amidst a by mirage. Those are those look
kind of cheap new?

Speaker 2 (01:24:01):
Do you have to roll the windows?

Speaker 1 (01:24:03):
Maybe it's gonna be a bootleg that's got a radio
without presets on it.

Speaker 2 (01:24:11):
I'm not a fool diva, but I would like some,
you know, show of what I've earned after thirty five
years on this road.

Speaker 1 (01:24:18):
Can I get some car play? I want? I would
like a little car play.

Speaker 3 (01:24:22):
Mind, so many car manufacturers are trying to ditch car play.
They want you to use their infotainment and like I
saw an article that was like something like, you know,
get ready to start letting go of car play, and
I was like, no, absolutely not.

Speaker 1 (01:24:42):
I that was a requirement when I bought my truck.

Speaker 4 (01:24:45):
Well, I think they probably feel like they're outsourcing the
entire look of their dash display to Apple, and that's
what you're going to see the whole time your phone's
plugged in.

Speaker 3 (01:24:56):
To do you don't have to do the car play
ultra that we were talking about, where where like your
speedometer is CarPlay and everything it can still be just
what it is in my car where it's like one
of the screens. You just hitt car play, and if
you don't want to be on CarPlay, you can be
on the radio screen or the climate control screen.

Speaker 1 (01:25:16):
I like it.

Speaker 4 (01:25:17):
I like when people get nice things in there. Their
life is better because they got a new car or
a new house. I think homeownership is important. Why all
these people will give you brain dead takes on why
renting long term is smarter? This is stupid if you
want to pass any sort of legacy wealth down the line,
and that is literally what separates the most poor among

(01:25:38):
us from the richest is each generation passing a little more,
passing a little more, passing a little more. When your
parents leave you nothing and you don't have a good
footing there financially and it's all on you, it's harder.

Speaker 1 (01:25:51):
To get out of this.

Speaker 4 (01:25:52):
So being a homeowner and passing that down the line
is a good thing for everybody in America. Right But
this is crazy, they're saying. Right now, they're starting to
work on a way that's going to be a game
changer to make it easier for people to get a
new house. All right, that sounds good, all right, game
changer new houses easy market for.

Speaker 2 (01:26:13):
That as well. Gone.

Speaker 4 (01:26:14):
Just so you know, if you're going to get a
mortgage on a house, they're generally twenty year to thirty
year mortgages I think, right like, you can get a
fifteen year mortgage maybe, but usually it's a twenty year
to thirty year mortgage that you're paying on your house.
And to combat the idea that it's so expensive for
you to get your first house, they're trying to introduce

(01:26:38):
through the Federal Housing Finance Agency, and the Trump administration
says they're working on this.

Speaker 1 (01:26:43):
I guess they're trying to.

Speaker 4 (01:26:45):
Introduce the fifty year mortgage for home buyers.

Speaker 1 (01:26:50):
So so you buy a house. Let's say you're thirty
when you get your first house. You buy your house,
and you have to make.

Speaker 4 (01:26:59):
Payments on that house for fifty years until you're done
paying off the loan.

Speaker 2 (01:27:06):
Okkind of wreaking at life expectancy of it all. Are
they just crossing their fingers at the thought that that's
going to go on to Mexican?

Speaker 1 (01:27:15):
Well, well it will be troublesome because the average age
of first time home buyers right now is forty years old. Yeah,
so you're paying it till you're ninety, and then you're
finally awesome. I don't think that they make this fifty
year mortgage.

Speaker 3 (01:27:30):
I don't think that they invented this to be something
that is completed, to be a house that's paid off.
I think it's something like, you do this fifty year mortgage.
You're probably gonna get screwed on something here, but you're
doing it because at least you're not renting.

Speaker 1 (01:27:45):
At least you're not throwing your money away.

Speaker 3 (01:27:47):
And so you have this and then eventually, when you
get your s together, you can move into something to
either refine or move into some somewhere different, you know,
more forever home and get a twenty or thirty year mortgage.

Speaker 4 (01:28:02):
Yeah, but if somebody with a fifty year mortgage really
going to get it together or are they just going.

Speaker 1 (01:28:05):
To go like that, they'll go. Housing is even more
expensive now introducing the two hundred year mortgage. I mean
what I'm saying, though, this is like an intermediary step
between renting and you know, buying, is bitting. This weird
mortgage thirty years is crazy. You saw this, see Lane,
When you get a house and.

Speaker 3 (01:28:24):
You're filling out paperworker, you're looking at the paperwork, they
list of payment dates, and you see the very last payment.

Speaker 1 (01:28:30):
Is going to be on the last thirty years from now.

Speaker 4 (01:28:33):
The last payment is like twenty forty six or something,
and you go, what, holy cow, you know, now, if
you have a thirty year that would obviously be twenty
fifty five, But if you got a fifty year loan
right now would be like your final payment in twenty
seventy five will make it so you finally own your house.
That seems a little brutal, and this says like everybody

(01:28:57):
must keep working until their final days. Greeter it at
publics or at Walmart or wherever. Uber driving into your
nineties or whatever. But maybe you're into this, let us know.

Speaker 1 (01:29:11):
That just seems like I think the goal should be
to add more housing, to build more houses.

Speaker 2 (01:29:18):
Yeah, the generations we build for us are just raking
in the profit because they invested in these properties. They've
paid them off. In this point, most of them would say, like,
this is what I'm going to leave to my children
as an investment. And we can't even do that because
we'll have grandkids before.

Speaker 1 (01:29:38):
We pay it off. I think we have so many
and this is like such a boring thing.

Speaker 4 (01:29:41):
I won't talk about it for a while, but they
have so many like zoning issues and building issues and
things where we discourage people from building new communities with
this idea that America is overdeveloped or whatever. Right and
get in a plane. Look at the ground. America is
not overdeveloped. It's not even close. Get on an interstate,

(01:30:02):
get on the turnpike. If you're in the state of Florida,
get on the turnpike and drive and tell me where
over developed. There's nothingness, there's causing landing. It's farmland as
far as the eye can see on so many of
these strips of land.

Speaker 1 (01:30:17):
Just look down from your plane. We're not over developed.

Speaker 4 (01:30:20):
We need a huge inventory increase in terms of all
different sizes and styles of homes in the United States
of America, and that will start to even out the
playing field a little bit, I think, But I don't
want to. Just like I hate property taxes, the never
ending creep of property taxes. It seems like the same

(01:30:41):
thing to be like, well, here now you're an owner,
but much less like the renters are going to pay
their entire lives, you too are going to pay your
entire life and you'll never see the end of the rainbow. Here,
fifty years later you finally stop paying your mortgage because
you've paid your house off, and then fifty years later
you have to still pay property taxes. It just it's

(01:31:05):
a little broken to me. But let us know what
you think. Send us a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com.
Right now, the fifty year mortgage has arrived. I was
talking before the break about this celebrity that's getting a
lot of heat, and I told you it's not Sidney
Sweeney and that whole stupid thing, but somebody who has.

Speaker 1 (01:31:23):
A lot of goodwill. I think a lot of people
were rooting for this.

Speaker 2 (01:31:30):
Promiss in their way, especially what two three years ago
m hm, when experience.

Speaker 4 (01:31:38):
When he almost died and the people are like, oh
my god, and they were really rooting for him.

Speaker 1 (01:31:42):
And we'll go through a little bit of this.

Speaker 4 (01:31:44):
But Jeremy Renner is the actor who is now in
the middle of this big controversy, and the controversy basically
boils down to this Chinese filmmaker Yee Zoo I think
is her name. She says that Jeremy Renner sent her
uns listited nude photos and threaded to reporter to Ice Zoo,
who worked with Renner on the Chronicles of Disney documentary,

(01:32:08):
says that the actor forced himself on her during their
first meeting and then sent obscene photos for days. That's
her allegations, right. According to Jeremy Renner, this is the
absolute opposite of that. He says the pair met only
once and uh this is through his attorney that Para
met only twice in July for a documentary interview in Reno, Nevada,

(01:32:32):
and they had sex a consensual encounter, and then one
more in August. Jeremy Renner's team claims it is Zuo
who relentlessly and aggressively harassed and pursued him, sending hundreds
of unsolicited and unwand wanted messages.

Speaker 1 (01:32:45):
So pick your poison. You know, is Jeremy Renner clipizoid here?
I don't know. I don't know who's released well, but
these are the accusations.

Speaker 4 (01:32:55):
All I can tell you is a bunch of stories
started to come out after Jeremy Renner was nearly killed
by his own snowplow in the most hilarious way to
almost die and squished him like he's from who framed
Roger rabbit he pulls through. America is rooting for him
because we all thought he was going to be dead.
And then the stories about him started to come out.

(01:33:17):
And at the time, there was this girl that Jeremy
Renner was dating. And just in case you don't know
who he is, what's he most famous for? Jami Renner
Hawkeye is a big one. He played Hawkeye. Obviously he's
in a lot of stuff. He's a famous actor. And
Jeremy Renner had this woman who wasn't even famous. She
came out with her story about dating him and how

(01:33:39):
he was like really obnoxious.

Speaker 1 (01:33:42):
He was also a hurt locker. Was he okay?

Speaker 4 (01:33:45):
And this woman, who I think seems credible, she said
that Jeremy Renner called her over for like a booty call,
but was so drunk when she got there that thing
started to fall apart. And they had a few meetings
back and forth, and then during one she wanted to

(01:34:07):
bring her family over and meet him, and he was
like so put off by this, and then when her
family did come over, he.

Speaker 1 (01:34:14):
Was drunk on the piano, singing the whole time for
the family members who just they didn't want to hear
anything wrong here.

Speaker 4 (01:34:24):
Pulling a sea light, as it says in this article
here in front of me. And there was just a
lot of things about how Jeremy Renner might be. I'm
not supposed to say cringe, I guess anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:34:36):
What was the other word of Jeremy Renner is totally bogus.

Speaker 4 (01:34:45):
He is just totally bowed at bogus according to some
of these claims here. But he is denying what this
Chinese filmmaker is saying. She's saying that she's telling the truth.
And now there's some season desists that are just floating.

Speaker 1 (01:35:00):
Round out there, kind of talking back and forth with theists.
That's true.

Speaker 4 (01:35:07):
But I think he's I think he might be really obnoxious.
I think judging by some of these stories that are
coming on about him. Everybody poured goodwill out to Jeremy
Renner the actor, because he seemed like you wanted to
root for him to live for God's sake, right, But
then you start to like learn these little things about

(01:35:28):
who he is and perpetual playboy getting caught up in
twenty twenty five where everybody saves receipts on stuff, it
kind of looks like this guy is cringe. This story
I saw about him and that woman he was dating
was there's a lot, a lot of bogus, a lot
of bogus in that story. So much bogus you wouldn't

(01:35:48):
even imagine.

Speaker 2 (01:35:48):
She's about to dispatch back saying stop saying bogus too.

Speaker 1 (01:35:51):
I'm I gotta say something. What else am I going
to say? Say? Everything is bogus? Okay? You do the
legos talk everything is bogus? Okay?

Speaker 4 (01:36:03):
And including Jeremy Renner and his dating set situation. I
guess it's hard to know it's real and it's fake
these days.

Speaker 1 (01:36:09):
But we'll see.

Speaker 4 (01:36:10):
All right, here we go, somebody's defending Billy Bob Thornton.
Let's see what they had to say. Here's Gene.

Speaker 16 (01:36:16):
Hey. I like Billy Bob Thornton, Okay, cool. I like
his gritty on screen persona. He played a lawyer in
a series called Goliath a few years back.

Speaker 1 (01:36:27):
I didn't see that one.

Speaker 16 (01:36:29):
One of the episodes they went after some upper crusty
farmer type entrepreneurs that were hogging all the water in California.
Super good tie in to all the stories that we
heard after the fires and the problems they had with
water distribution. Sounds exciting, kind of interesting, not related, but

(01:36:50):
coincidentally kind of explains.

Speaker 2 (01:36:53):
That's what the pauses.

Speaker 1 (01:36:54):
Dude, we were here.

Speaker 4 (01:36:55):
You want to talk about what is bogus Billy Bob Thornton.
Some of this stuff by him, and especially around the
Angelina Joe the time, very very bogus behavior.

Speaker 2 (01:37:05):
There, very very see bogus is throw me off, Bogus
comes off.

Speaker 1 (01:37:10):
I don't know what to do. Didn't they like, oh,
we wear we wear vials of each other's blood around
our necks.

Speaker 2 (01:37:16):
Yeah, around the same time she kissed her brother in
the mouth like two mississippis.

Speaker 1 (01:37:21):
That was a weird period of Hollywood's and celebrities in Hollywood.
I guess should say not Hollywood's and celebrity That doesn't
make any sense.

Speaker 4 (01:37:28):
That was a weird period of celebrities in Hollywood, and
they were at the center of all of this. And
he during the time was as cringe slash bogus as
one could ever be, and a lot of the love
for I don't hate Billy Bob Thornton, by the way,
I don't really have.

Speaker 1 (01:37:41):
An opinion on Billy Bob.

Speaker 4 (01:37:43):
I don't, but I do think there's a lot of
stuff where people give Billy Bob.

Speaker 1 (01:37:48):
Thornton credit and I'm like, I am not seeing it.

Speaker 4 (01:37:50):
But for instance, I know this is a hot take
for some of you, but I think the movie Bad
Santa is one of the worst movies ever.

Speaker 2 (01:37:57):
Oh and it's funny.

Speaker 4 (01:38:00):
His character is like the least redeeming individual planet Earth's the.

Speaker 2 (01:38:06):
Movie there's Santa. But usually you have.

Speaker 4 (01:38:09):
An arc that things follow and you're like, well, he's
Bad Santa, but like, here's a couple of things that
make you want a rude for him.

Speaker 1 (01:38:17):
Nothing does. He's a monster. He sucks. He's not even
nice to the fat kid, all right, the whole time.

Speaker 2 (01:38:24):
Actually he was nice to that one kid.

Speaker 4 (01:38:26):
Which one the little red hair kid, the one you
know is a part of the Yeah, I thought it
was mean to him.

Speaker 3 (01:38:33):
If I either haven't seen Bad Santa or it's just
been a really long time, I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:38:36):
Remember it being like all right, I'm no longer Bad Santa,
nice music, and let's go find a family.

Speaker 1 (01:38:42):
But he was.

Speaker 2 (01:38:43):
He ends up turning a little bit to be looking
out for that child. However, I thought that movie was
so Bad Santa.

Speaker 1 (01:38:54):
Indeed, indeed, yes, I lived up to the bad part
of it.

Speaker 11 (01:38:59):
To me?

Speaker 1 (01:38:59):
Was I watched this, I'm like, it's not really funny.

Speaker 2 (01:39:02):
What about Bad Newspaers?

Speaker 4 (01:39:03):
Then Bad Newspairers is great, it's a great story. There's
there's an arc there, and I don't want to go
on that journey that I like the overall story of
bad newspairs and there's enough enough of the other characters
to fill it out.

Speaker 1 (01:39:17):
This one, I just don't think there is. Maybe you
guys are all Billy Bob Thornton fans. I don't know.
Tell me where I'm wrong, Okay, I like pushing a
good time newsjunkie dot com? Is that a golf movie?
No airplanes? Oh? Sure? Quick break.

Speaker 4 (01:39:35):
When we come back, we'll hear from you and we'll
talk about balls out bowling.

Speaker 1 (01:39:40):
Believe it or not, that is We're going to talk
about balls out bowling. It's what you think it is.

Speaker 4 (01:39:45):
It is and I'll tell you why people are doing
this and the details you maybe need to know are
coming up next. Send the news Junkie and just a moment,

(01:40:10):
we'll talk about balls out bowling. I know that seems weird,
but it's gonna make sense. And then it's gonna I'm
gonna be able to see balls.

Speaker 1 (01:40:17):
You might.

Speaker 4 (01:40:17):
You could in many ways you could, but I want
to tell you this first, because sea line is headed
to New York City before too long's right, And I
saw this morning that New York City.

Speaker 1 (01:40:33):
That's right, the big apple.

Speaker 4 (01:40:36):
That the Christmas tree has made its way to Rockefeller's Center.

Speaker 3 (01:40:41):
Yeah, actually said that it'll be there, but it won't
be lit up yet, okay.

Speaker 4 (01:40:47):
And it's like it's a sweet little story. It's this
couple and the guy died in twenty twenty. He was
thirty two years old. The dude, all right, it was
Dan Russ. He was thirty two years old in twenty
twenty and he died. And Judy, who was his wife,
really wanted to do something with this big spruce tree

(01:41:09):
in Norway spruce outside their home in upstate New York.

Speaker 2 (01:41:12):
Just one yeah, not like tree people they sell.

Speaker 4 (01:41:17):
Take a look at this because for those of you
on the stream, their house and they just have like
one big giant Christmas tree next to their house.

Speaker 1 (01:41:25):
It's like this, there's one huge tree. That's it.

Speaker 4 (01:41:29):
That's the tree that they're going to be using for
the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree this year. And it's from
a widow who has donated the tree that was outside
the home she shared with her husband who died in
twenty twenty, and she wanted this to be the tree,
and they said, all right, we'll take it, and it
was donated. It's a seventy five foot tall Norway spruce

(01:41:53):
and it served as a jungle gym for their son Liam.
They cut it down on November sixth, and it'll arrive. Well,
it's already arrived a couple of days ago in Rockefeller Center.
And then they're gonna get all the lights and.

Speaker 1 (01:42:07):
Stuff on it. But I don't know if it's different
because it's so big, because it's a seventy five foot
tall Christmas tree.

Speaker 4 (01:42:12):
I see people already setting up the tents and selling
Christmas trees.

Speaker 1 (01:42:16):
If I buy a Christmas.

Speaker 4 (01:42:17):
Tree right now, isn't that son of a bitch gonna
die before Christmas arrive.

Speaker 2 (01:42:21):
Unless you like really take care of it. I guess
maybe water it or do the proper things.

Speaker 1 (01:42:29):
Hold on, I say, to make sure.

Speaker 7 (01:42:30):
It doesn't die.

Speaker 1 (01:42:31):
I say, die, It's dead the moment you cut it
out of the ground.

Speaker 2 (01:42:34):
Is it not like you can have like you can
get a okay of flowers and those can last quite
some time if you are changing up that water, given
it the food. Yeah, trimming off the dead stuff like
that can last longer than until it's completely sad looking.
This tree should do the same if they're caring for

(01:42:55):
it properly.

Speaker 1 (01:42:56):
Well.

Speaker 4 (01:42:56):
The problem is Christmas has now been stretched out so
long as a holiday that your Christmas tree, if you
get it in the beginning of November, has to last
like two months.

Speaker 2 (01:43:05):
That's fare.

Speaker 4 (01:43:07):
Yeah, this the real tree life ain't gonna work out
for you, I don't think. But Selan's gotta get to
see this dead guy's tree in New York City with
his very own arms.

Speaker 2 (01:43:17):
That's a thousand real photo.

Speaker 1 (01:43:19):
Yeah, it's for realsies. Yeah, I mean it looks a
little AI.

Speaker 2 (01:43:23):
It looks a lot of AI. I gotta be yeah honest,
but this is like AI's fault.

Speaker 1 (01:43:28):
It says.

Speaker 4 (01:43:28):
The giant Norway spruce from the Russ's family home in
East Greenbush, New York is being used.

Speaker 1 (01:43:33):
Is this year is a Rockefeller Christmas Tree.

Speaker 3 (01:43:35):
I think it's just that the tree is so big
that they needed to use a drone to photograph it
everything to like show it most of the house and
like the difference in size between that garage that they
have a barn or whatever that is versus the seventy
five foot tree.

Speaker 1 (01:43:52):
Yeah. Yeah, Sabrina's right there. There is this like weird
twenty twenty five thing when everything you look at you're like,
is that fake? Is what am I looking at? Here?
I saw that this morning with something. Let me see.
Let me show this with you guys. I still don't
hope this is real. But the story that I saw,
which is starting to go a little viral, says US

(01:44:14):
engineers unveil something called torri all tornioll see, Like, if
you look this up, it's t O r n yol
see if that's real?

Speaker 4 (01:44:24):
A palm size drone that hunts and kills mosquitos mid air.
You put it in your yard, you let the drone patrol,
and for a thousand dollars, it kills all the mosquitos
in your yard. And I'm like, that's.

Speaker 2 (01:44:38):
Ai right, that's well one, all right, Wait.

Speaker 4 (01:44:44):
What they're showing the drone and the drone just blasts
all the mosquitoes out of the sky.

Speaker 1 (01:44:52):
But it's I don't believe anything anymore. Custom Protems has
a tiny drone, but.

Speaker 2 (01:44:59):
It says Oh, so White House is the example.

Speaker 4 (01:45:04):
Home because they said you could set a perimeter around
your house, okay, and as big as the White House
perimeter and it silently protects your house. The drone goes
out and for one thousand dollars, your little mosquito drone.

Speaker 1 (01:45:17):
This has gotta be fake, right, Like, there's no way
I don't believe this.

Speaker 2 (01:45:21):
I'll take it. The mosquitos are horrible right now.

Speaker 4 (01:45:25):
It would be cool, but are we there yet where
you could get a drone and it just zaps all
the mosquitoes out of the epic?

Speaker 2 (01:45:32):
So this is already unbelievable.

Speaker 4 (01:45:35):
Like, so the drone came out and just id'd that
mosquito in the air and then blasted it out of
the sky.

Speaker 2 (01:45:41):
Okay, but to scale, that was the size of a
small bird. I don't believe this company.

Speaker 1 (01:45:46):
Sea Land says the drone is pretty small itself, like
the actual drone. But I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:45:50):
Yeah, I don't know that I believe it's real. Is
there anything any website for it?

Speaker 1 (01:45:53):
Yeah? They look to be taking your money. You're gonna
have a subscription playing of fifty dollars, which includes drone unit, maintenance, software, updates,
and customer support. You have to reserve. You put down
one hundred dollars deposits to reserve your spot.

Speaker 2 (01:46:07):
I'm sorry, but their example at the White House is
not for your average consumer.

Speaker 1 (01:46:13):
That's what they're saying.

Speaker 4 (01:46:13):
If you could do it at the White House, then
it will definitely take care of your properties.

Speaker 1 (01:46:16):
Then they probably do.

Speaker 4 (01:46:19):
Because I'm looking down on the website. They have these
little drones. See how big are can you tell big?
These are like inchwise?

Speaker 3 (01:46:25):
Like well, they say it fits in the palm of
your hand. And if it's if it's forty grams, that
is incredibly small. You like the drone that I have
is one hundred and forty nine grams, or it's something
that keeps you under this FAA rule. But yeah, it's
it's it's a tiny, tiny little thing. So this is

(01:46:49):
watch the full demo. They just want me just watch. Yeah,
that's this this this is the same demo.

Speaker 1 (01:46:56):
That's the word. But it it works. Own it for
oh god, how this.

Speaker 4 (01:47:03):
Subscription plan fifty dollars per month or own it forever
a one time, one dollars fee which gives you lifetime updates.
Drone unit included one hundred dollars deposit right now for it,
and then you go over to their website and buy it,
and then the drone like protects your property.

Speaker 1 (01:47:22):
Blasts out on the mosquito.

Speaker 2 (01:47:23):
Yeah, we'll see.

Speaker 1 (01:47:24):
That's crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:47:25):
The droid features a high power battery with five minutes
of flight time.

Speaker 1 (01:47:31):
No, it's not.

Speaker 3 (01:47:32):
A unit automatically returns to its charging station when battery
is low, rechargers in about thirty minutes, and resumes patrol
automatically for continuous protection. The system intelligently manages patrol schedules.
We're also working on battery swapping to increase effective drum
battery swapping.

Speaker 2 (01:47:49):
How about when that company goes to the you know dumpster.
There's so you got that lifetime and you won't get
any updates and you're gonna have to keep this piece
of crap. We've got all our money and see you later.

Speaker 1 (01:48:02):
I don't believe this.

Speaker 2 (01:48:04):
You think they're taking a floor toa mosquitoes?

Speaker 1 (01:48:06):
No way, What wouldn't a bat be a better investments?
Get a big ass bat, yeah, and put it in
your backyard. My question is how does it? How does
it neutralize the mosquito?

Speaker 3 (01:48:17):
From the video, it looks like it flies into it
so that the mosquito gets chopped up in the in
the rotor with.

Speaker 4 (01:48:24):
Drones and sonar, it says, we use a raised sonar
and then we identify and track mosquitos in real time,
and then I guess it like I guess it cuts
it up in the wing.

Speaker 1 (01:48:38):
Please of the drone that the drone blade. I'm full
sauce that this is supposedly real, but you could check
that out. Grinds Mosquitos and its propellers environmentally friendly and
safe for your family and pets. Grinds.

Speaker 2 (01:48:53):
Imagine all those mosquitos that just like freshly left your leg.
That's blood l over the blades.

Speaker 1 (01:49:01):
It's gonna be brutal. Yeah, it's t O R N
y O L dot com.

Speaker 2 (01:49:06):
And it looks to be real c A M dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:49:09):
You can pre order them right now. So there you go.
There's that.

Speaker 4 (01:49:12):
I still don't know one hundred percent if that's real,
but it seems to be at least. Jury duty is
coming up next. We still gotta get to that might
be real. And now that's gonna be real. That's gonna
be real. Uh, jury duty is coming up next. We've
got balls out bowling. We also have this story over
the weekend where more sports Oh my god, I was
gonna say sports athletes, more sports stars, more baseball stars.

(01:49:36):
In this case, we're caught in a cheating scandal. What
were the details behind this?

Speaker 1 (01:49:41):
Bust? Wait till you hear this. It's coming up next
in the news. Junk key, real quick. I wanted to

(01:50:03):
tell you that that Ball's Out bowling is back. And
I know what you're thinking. What is balls out? Never left?

Speaker 4 (01:50:10):
You shouldn't try this if you're not really prepared. But
this is one of the stories getting a ton of
attention today out of Pittsburgh.

Speaker 1 (01:50:19):
And the story says, have no need for clothes.

Speaker 4 (01:50:23):
Well, Ball's out bowling is back, where nudity is indeed required.

Speaker 1 (01:50:31):
You could require nudity. I that's a good question. Oh,
hold on. The greatest question is answered here pretty quickly.

Speaker 4 (01:50:37):
But the Pittsburgh area naturists are hosting Balls Out Bowling,
a nude bowling event for well, I guess it was
this past weekend. It was a four hour event and
it's open to all adults interested in body positive, non
sexual social nudity.

Speaker 1 (01:50:53):
Good luck with that.

Speaker 2 (01:50:54):
Yeah, great title for it as well.

Speaker 4 (01:50:56):
Nudity is required for all participants. Title may wear bottoms.
The event is inclusive of everybody. Guests must bring a
towel to sit on.

Speaker 2 (01:51:09):

but when I did around the job ten years ago,
they called it bum no bum bum towel bum pillow
something name like Balls Out Bowling.

Speaker 4 (01:51:26):
Guests must bring a towel to sit on in a
bag for their personal items. Admission is thirty dollars whether
you're bowling or not, and you get your shoe rentaled
because of.

Speaker 1 (01:51:35):
Course you still have to wear the bowling shoes. You
can be completely naked, but bowling shoes please, byob And
that is weird your your own balls? Is that in
case your feet gets sweaty or something? Well, no, it's
just the rules. Man. You can't be on that laying
without any shoes on. Yeah, but I think that's.

Speaker 3 (01:51:52):
Usually because they don't want you wearing your like normal
shoes because your normal shoes will scuff up the wood.

Speaker 1 (01:51:57):
But if you're barefoot, oh, I still have to wear
the sh shoes. It says it's required. That's what it
says here for Balls Out Bowling.

Speaker 2 (01:52:03):
Yeah, if you the you know bowling ball on your toe.

Speaker 4 (01:52:07):
No photography or video is allowed. It's a non sexual event,
so don't make it weird, dudes. But yeah, I mean,
to each their own, that seems like a a dangerous thing.
But swinging around bowling balls with just your junk hanging out,
and I can't have normal conversations with you when everybody's naked.

Speaker 2 (01:52:28):

normal part I felt was we were playing pickleball and
everyone at that moment, I was like, oh, I forgot
you guys were naked. But everything Also, I like, I

but your nipples are the size of pencil racers.

over It's just normal to be like, well, this is strange.
This is a little different.

show up naked like the parking.

President Trump himself. It said specifically, like this does not

(01:54:33):
include President Trump, but it was everybody else who kind
of acted on his behalf, like Mark Meadows and Rudy Giuliani.
After the twenty twenty election, the baseball news was about
the Guardians, the Cleveland Guardians, two pitchers for the team,
Emmanuel Closs, Place Clase and Louis Ortiz, were charged with fraud, conspiracy,

(01:55:01):
and bribery. Now the whole cheating scandal moves over to baseball.

Speaker 2 (01:55:07):
So FBI is fully focused on sports because it started
out with the basketball where they were like arresting coaches
and players at the games. And we saw the UFC
or boxing recently that was clearly rigged, right, And now
we're moving on to baseball. I mean everyone's doing it.

Speaker 4 (01:55:30):
I don't know how long, Like an investigation like this
has probably been going on for a while, I would guess.

Speaker 1 (01:55:36):
I'm not really sure. When they start these So I
don't know when the.

Speaker 4 (01:55:40):
Investigations began, but I guess they're referencing stuff as far
back as like May of twenty twenty three. So this,
I guess went out for a while, and it says
Cleveland Guardians pitchers Emmanuel class Place and Lewis Ortiz were
charged with fraud, conspiracy and bribery scamming from an alleged
scheme to rig individual pitches that led to gamblers winning

(01:56:03):
hundreds of thousands of dollars. According to an indictment, Ortiz,
twenty six, was arrested Sunday morning in Boston will appear
in court today. A Clase twenty seven is not in
custody yet. Prosecutors in the Eastern District of New York
said that they had similar charges against NBA player Terry
Rogier or whatever his name is, and then some other people.

(01:56:23):
They said, in the case of these folks, there was
hundreds of thousands of dollars that were won. These two
baseball pitchers are facing twenty years in prison right now
for wire fraud conspiracy, twenty years for honest services wire
fraud conspiracy, and then money laundering charge.

Speaker 1 (01:56:42):
It sounds like you're being arrested for something nice, because
for honest services, for what are you in for a friend?
Honest services? That's what got me. But they had like
pictures of these pictures when they were throwing the pitches. Boof.

Speaker 4 (01:57:00):
That was a rough pictures of the pitchers when they
were throwing the pitches, and they said they were purposely
doing this and like so for instance, they would regularly
throw balls instead of strikes and sliders rather than cutters
on the first pitch in which betters would wage on
the independent or individual pitches to be balls or under
a specific miles per hour. So this was like so

(01:57:20):
specific that they'd go, his first pitch against this batter
is going to be what type of pitch or how fast?

Speaker 1 (01:57:27):
Are we so.

Speaker 3 (01:57:30):
Underserved with just a baseball game, like betting on a
baseball game that we have to bet on individual pitches?

Speaker 1 (01:57:36):
Yes, it's generosy, it's very ultimate betting degeneracy. Now that
they're doing this level and they're cheating, they're cheating back
and forth, at least some of these folks are. So
we'll see what happens with that. But the sports crackdown
is real, folks.

Speaker 2 (01:57:53):
What's next? I'll put bets on that.

Speaker 4 (01:57:55):
Well, they got basketball and baseball football.

Speaker 1 (01:57:59):
Is NFL gonna get roped up in this whole scandal, Jesus,
I have no idea how they are now going against
these two pictures.

Speaker 4 (01:58:09):
And we'll see what you think about this. Sports fans
hit us up with a dispatch over at thenewsjunkie dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:58:13):
All right, at SNL controversy and a new robot, a
new robot.

Speaker 4 (01:58:18):
Oh god, we have some things to talk about. I
have some concerns here. This will all makes sense. We
come back and that's coming up next, and the News Junkie.

(01:58:41):
We'll get to your feedback momentarily. Tips at the news
Junkie dot com.

Speaker 1 (01:58:45):
Or record a dispatch, even better, baby, record a dispatch
over on the website. I want to hear your voice.

Speaker 4 (01:58:51):
I want to see your face with a video dispatch
at thenewsjunkie dot com. One thing I saw going pretty
viral today, over a million views and it has a
whole bunch of people very very angry, and I kind
of talked about doing a little bit of this where
wherever I see like explosive fake news popping off, making

(01:59:13):
mention of it, because you'll probably see.

Speaker 1 (01:59:16):
This people were losing it at the latest from Miss Rachel.
My god, what is that bitch up to? Now? Miss
Rachel beloved kids like Sydney Sweeney for kids like, uh,
she's just very successful, but everybody wants to hate on her.
And the clip that was going viral. I can't believe
how many people were fooled by this. But here it is,

(01:59:37):
my friend. Today's letter is 's ne for mom, Johnny.

Speaker 7 (01:59:47):
Mom, Donnie?

Speaker 1 (01:59:48):
Is okay?

Speaker 2 (01:59:51):
Just so you know, clearly not Miss Rachel.

Speaker 1 (01:59:54):
It's obviously not Miss Rachel. Yeah, hey I Miss Rachel. No,
it's just a woman.

Speaker 4 (02:00:00):
And who doesn't Miss Rachel like knockoff And a lot
of people were convinced that this was her and they're like,
oh my god, now she's the shilling for the mayor
guy who won in New York City.

Speaker 1 (02:00:12):
It's not real. It's not actually the.

Speaker 2 (02:00:14):
Children that are obsessed with Miss Rachel and them believing.

Speaker 1 (02:00:18):
That the kids don't have any idea what's going on.

Speaker 2 (02:00:21):
No, no, but I guarantee all the kids that like
watch Miss Rachel religiously for lack of a better term,
would know immediately that that's not Miss Rachel.

Speaker 1 (02:00:31):
Oh you think so does Jackson watch Miss Rachel at all.

Speaker 3 (02:00:36):
Not a lot. He's leans more mouse. She leans more
towards Maga mouse. He uh, he has seen Miss Rachel
a handful of times and it will grab his attention
like that. That definitely will keep him occupied.

Speaker 1 (02:00:55):
Yeah, you know why because it's like scientifically built to
grab their attention. It's they know exactly what they're doing
with these things. But he's also two years old, and
he's perfectly fine watching the same seven minute music video
over and over and over again.

Speaker 4 (02:01:08):
Oh that is my favorite new thing? Is what's the
song Jackson is so into now?

Speaker 1 (02:01:14):
Well?

Speaker 3 (02:01:14):
See, it started with the witch Doctor song and then
and then I said, well, I am pretty tired of
this song and I need a transition into something else.
And I was like, what is easily like repeated a lot,
something that's easy for him to sing along too. He'll
be able to figure it out. And I settled on

(02:01:37):
the old like Louisiana Blues ico Ico song Okay you
hear it, yeah, Marty Grau and stuff. And he is
now obsessed, obsessed with that song. Like when the song
is over, he asked for it again. He wants to
hear it multiple times a day and on Saturday. I

(02:01:58):
had some stuff I needed to get done. I took
a couple of trips to the landfill to just get
rid of a bunch of crap we had in our garage,
and I was like, how can I load the truck
without without without not being able to see him?

Speaker 1 (02:02:15):
You know?

Speaker 3 (02:02:15):
How am I able to keep him occupied where I
can trust that he's not you know, small cage trust
He's not like.

Speaker 1 (02:02:22):
Licking a with the jam on. You're looking at a
power outlet somewhere.

Speaker 3 (02:02:26):
Yes, yeah, it's good. Yeah, you don't want that. And
so I put the seven minute Grateful Dead version on repeat.
That's son An.

Speaker 1 (02:02:34):
It worked.

Speaker 2 (02:02:37):
Became obsessed with the Blue I full sixty five songs
Blue and would listen to nothing else, but to the
point where I went over the house and we're like,
let's try a remix, and he's like no, no, And
I get seen in their eyes how tired the parents
were because they had heard that song easily fifteen hundred times.

Speaker 1 (02:03:00):
We could stop. We're kind of brainstorming what the next
song should be.

Speaker 3 (02:03:04):
We've thought of them bap oh so many also U
I'm gonna be by the Proclaimers five hundred miles.

Speaker 4 (02:03:15):
Oh that that's gonna be punishing to you though, because
it's like that seems like it would be nightmarish to
hear that on loop all the time. We do this
as adults too, though, I mean I remember at one point,
I don't know when the song came out, but my sister, uh,
we you know, like in our house, we had my parents'

(02:03:38):
bedroom off to the right hand side, don't think like
the east wing or anything.

Speaker 1 (02:03:43):
It was a very small house. It was like sixteen
hundred square feet or something, and my parents' bedroom was
off to the right past the dining room, and then
all three kids' bedrooms were off to the left and
like a little cul de sac together right, and it
was my bedroom, my brother's bedroom, my sister's bedroom.

Speaker 4 (02:04:02):
And at some point in time, the used dropped that
taste of income, Oh is it worth can you reve?

Speaker 5 (02:04:11):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (02:04:12):
Yeah, and my sister would play is it worth a?
Can you even hear me? And then over and over
and over and over, and so I think we do
it as adults.

Speaker 2 (02:04:21):
Too, But oh, I an adult, and that's stupid. By
reminds me that I am in the top one percent
of Beyonce's new song I you listen to it ten
thousand times this year.

Speaker 1 (02:04:34):
It's like a shaming among psycho But this is not
this woman says who posted this.

Speaker 4 (02:04:38):
It's almost a million views. Miss Rachel is total poisoned.
Parents should not allow their kids to watch her and
doctor Danny garbage.

Speaker 1 (02:04:45):
I'm an idiot, but it's a parody and she's submitting
which this parody is not far off from Yeah, you're right.

Speaker 4 (02:04:51):
But a lot of the people in the comments are like,
what the hell because nobody reads anything, and the notes
are like, hey, this is a satirical creation.

Speaker 1 (02:05:00):
It's not from Miss Rachel. Blah blah blah.

Speaker 4 (02:05:03):
Miss rachel is definitely gets into the world affairs and
political stuff on her Instagram, but that one is not real.

Speaker 1 (02:05:10):
That is not actual.

Speaker 2 (02:05:11):
I wonder is it gonna get down to a point
where they have to, you know, do a little fine
print on pages like this. By the way, you idiots,
this is a parody. This is not Miss Rachel.

Speaker 1 (02:05:26):
I don't I think it's only just gonna get worse.

Speaker 2 (02:05:29):
Hurting Miss Rachel's brand of stupid. People think that's actually
Miss Rachel.

Speaker 4 (02:05:34):
Maybe because people would think that there's there's definitely people
in the comments who are like, I absolutely think this
is real.

Speaker 1 (02:05:40):
Who believe this? But I don't know. That's the tough part,
Like we're in such a.

Speaker 4 (02:05:46):
Bad spot with all of this fake stuff, and people
get so angry about the fake things, and then you
can go okay, like, let's say that there's somebody who
really really dislikes Trump or something right, and they'll go this,
do you see this? This is such an outrage and
you go, oh, actually, that's not true. Here's what's really
happening here. And then the person will go, huh, did

(02:06:06):
you see this other thing? And Doug, it's just gish galloping,
moving from one complaint to the next complaint, to the
next complaint.

Speaker 1 (02:06:13):
To the next complaint.

Speaker 4 (02:06:14):
That's where we're at. And this is happening with everything
all over all of these social media platforms non stop.
It's not great, it really isn't. But there's a lot
of other stuff out there. So let's see what else
we got here. I wanted to bring this up. A
new robot.

Speaker 1 (02:06:28):
New robot just dropped. You know, we'll see if it's
better than the last one. And this we kind of
like the last one.

Speaker 4 (02:06:35):
We liked the last one because it looked really drunk
when it was trying to do the dishes late at night.

Speaker 1 (02:06:39):
I liked the promise of the last one, but I
don't think it was really delivering. Not really. No.

Speaker 4 (02:06:44):
But this thing is called Expang and their intro post
was Hello world. Iron is on track for mass production,
bringing us closer to large scale humanoid manufacturing by twenty
twenty six. Iron is not just a machine, but a
companion built with purpose. A new chapter of intelligence begins.

(02:07:07):
And here's their robot that they have unveiled. Okay, very
very humanoid looking, and it's got lights.

Speaker 1 (02:07:16):
All over it. It's more skeletal than the Neo one. Yeah,
I think it needs the cope or whatever for sure. Yeah,
this one looks much more roboty like.

Speaker 2 (02:07:28):
Westworldie also put it in that stupid room.

Speaker 4 (02:07:33):
But the thing is, when you're looking at this, it's
not There's nothing that makes you think it's a human
at all. You see like the pistons in the legs
and all the different.

Speaker 1 (02:07:42):
Parts of the robot. What can it do? This is
just it moving around and picking up films.

Speaker 2 (02:07:50):
Never mind, I know what I can do, gentlemen.

Speaker 4 (02:07:53):
Sex robot all right, it's got cameras on the face.
This is just their promo video for the Humanoids that
they're released.

Speaker 1 (02:08:04):
It's like the insured to West World. Yeah, it does does.

Speaker 4 (02:08:07):
It's so weird how fast this has become a thing too.
These are the newest ones that have popped out. Ex Pangs,
Robot and oh.

Speaker 2 (02:08:16):
God, let's go back to the old days.

Speaker 11 (02:08:22):
Cat.

Speaker 4 (02:08:22):
I can't that that song has a particular spot in
my heart for that, because she must have.

Speaker 1 (02:08:29):
My sister has played that song a thousand times over.

Speaker 2 (02:08:32):
It will be playing at least seven times today, and it.

Speaker 1 (02:08:35):
Would end, It would end silence and then is it
what right? Over and over and over and over again,
like that neighbor I had with Christina Aguilera.

Speaker 4 (02:08:49):
Yeah, and it's a great Yeah. I remember this story
he told about his neighbor playing that on repeat. But
this was such a great song.

Speaker 1 (02:08:58):
I liked it. But then, you know, before too long,
it's like now now like I hate this. That's the
other worry.

Speaker 3 (02:09:05):
The other worry about, like turning them onto songs that
I like, is that he makes me not like him,
you know, Yeah, that's true. Yeah, I was very indifferent
about the witch Doctor song, even though I didn't care
about that one, even though, now that because I also
have to play them for him, you know, like if
I sit down at the piano, he's like, ooh e.

Speaker 1 (02:09:25):
You know that's what he calls it. It's so funny
because for me, if I do a drive by and
I see Jackson, You're playing oui ting tang wollawa bang
bang on the piano, I go, that's so adorable, and
then you go, yeah, you have no idea what my
life is like right now.

Speaker 2 (02:09:39):
But I'm playing as cat fees now I can't.

Speaker 1 (02:09:42):
Take it anymore.

Speaker 3 (02:09:43):
But uh when I so, I learned that song and
I was like, how's nobody come to cancel this song?
The witch Doctor song?

Speaker 2 (02:09:53):
Well, it's what happened in there.

Speaker 1 (02:09:55):
It's is it because he's talking like a monkey?

Speaker 3 (02:09:58):
No, it's it's about like the witch doctor gives him
a spell over some woman so that she'll love him.

Speaker 1 (02:10:04):
Oh oh like a baby. It's cold outside witch Doctor version.
That is rap as baby. It is cold outside, but
thank god, it's not super consent to either, not super
consent to right, all right, Uh, okay, totally damn it.
That song is gonna be stuck in my head at
the end.

Speaker 11 (02:10:23):
Of the day.

Speaker 2 (02:10:24):
They use it for the end of the show, so
we can just put.

Speaker 1 (02:10:27):
At the bed please. I don't know if that's gonna help.

Speaker 4 (02:10:29):
I honestly don't think it is, but we'll we'll see, Okay,
quick break, when we come back, we're.

Speaker 1 (02:10:37):
Gonna we're gonna hear from you.

Speaker 4 (02:10:39):
We'll get your feedback, which has been rolling in all
show long, but I have very much just kind of
ignored so far.

Speaker 1 (02:10:45):
We'll get that, and we'll also talk about SNL.

Speaker 4 (02:10:48):
They've had some drama going on after the latest show
with Nicki Glazer hosting.

Speaker 1 (02:10:53):
What did she say that was so controversial?

Speaker 4 (02:10:55):
We'll dive into that and a whole lot more, and
it's all coming up next in the news John Key

(02:11:17):
into the dispatches and emails of course momentarily, but over
the weekend there was some controversy, and I mean, it's
it's kind of good for SNL to have some controversy,
I would say, mostly because if not for the controversy,
nobody's really talking about Saturday Night Live this season. I
haven't seen any sketches or like digital shorts or anything

(02:11:42):
take off.

Speaker 1 (02:11:43):
I haven't really seen anything.

Speaker 2 (02:11:44):
Just like coulmately Land Property Brothers one was funny but
that might be my algorithm.

Speaker 4 (02:11:51):
Yeah, you know what I saw that I thought was
this is so dumb, But I thought it was kind
of interesting. Do you know that Michael Chay does the
Weekend Update segment and then goes home and watches the
rest of the SNL from.

Speaker 2 (02:12:05):
The what is the after party anymore?

Speaker 1 (02:12:08):
He like he was posting himself watching from his house
before the episode was over. Michael Jay like does Weekend Update,
and somebody said, hey, how come he's not doing I
see that it might.

Speaker 4 (02:12:21):
Be wrong here, but I think the knight good good nights.
I was gonna say goodbyes the good nights. So that's
the end of SNL where the band is playing and
they all kind of you know, wave at the camera
and they hug each other. Good job, good job, good job,
and Michael Jay is not generally there, and people said, well.

Speaker 1 (02:12:38):
What's going on here?

Speaker 4 (02:12:38):
Why is somebody goes, oh, he's already at home. He
does his bit and he leaves and he goes home
and then he watches the rest of the episode live.
And I thought, that's kind of funny.

Speaker 1 (02:12:48):
What a move this is? I like this, it's a
boss move. I think that he said that Norm MacDonald
often left after update, but he was going hambling yeah,
like nor McDonald a do weekend update and then hoping
a limo and head to like Atlantic City or something,
because he was just this degenerative game, degenerative gambler. That's

(02:13:10):
great he was, and.

Speaker 4 (02:13:12):
I like those little tidbits, but that's not what had
people mad. People were mad, And I don't generally jump
on the like, hey, is there some sexism going on here?

Speaker 1 (02:13:20):
Bandwagon?

Speaker 4 (02:13:21):
But like, would people be going after Nicki Glazer's SNL
monologue if it was a dude.

Speaker 1 (02:13:27):
Telling edgy jokes. I don't know like people.

Speaker 4 (02:13:30):
And when I say people, I mean these very same whiners,
these perpetually offended, always political losers online that need to
be bullied more. These are the people I'm talking about.
It's like, not actual people in real life. Mostly it's
people were like, well, I will tell you that this
has gone too far. You talked about slavery and human trafficking,

(02:13:51):
and I was like, hey, those things are real, right
and talking about them and the form of a comedian
discussing things is one of many ways to have a
conversation about things.

Speaker 1 (02:14:03):
Correct.

Speaker 3 (02:14:04):
I watched the monologue this morning only because I did
see that there was some controversy over it. I wanted
to see what the big deal was.

Speaker 1 (02:14:13):
And at first it was like she just made some
comment like it's great to be in New York City
Epstein's original island, and I was like, well, I sure
hope that isn't the comment in question. That's pretty funy.

Speaker 2 (02:14:28):
She had a full incest bite, and no one commented
on that.

Speaker 3 (02:14:32):
I think that's what That's part of what they were
commenting on, like the human trafficking and the pedophile stuff.

Speaker 4 (02:14:37):
So the line that got the loudest criticism, they're saying, again,
I think most people just watch this stuff and they're like,
it's either funny or not funny. She said in my twenties,
I feared good old fashioned rape. I didn't think it
would be a career. And she was obviously making a
social commentary about a lot of things there, but she

(02:14:58):
covered a bunch of ground. And in this you have
people it's like the Daily Dot and these other like
outlets who always come forward with.

Speaker 1 (02:15:04):
Like people, we're upset. People wait and they go who
and why and what and why do we care? Why
do we care? So either she was funny or she
wasn't funny. That is literally the only thing that mattered.

Speaker 3 (02:15:16):
I wish I was saying this on Doll Mike before
we got back. I wish I would have just watched
it blind and not knew that there was something controversial
about it, so that I think that would have been
my most accurate take on it, because I did know
that people were pissed about something, and I was really
only watching it to see what And I don't know,
I didn't laugh a lot at it, And I don't
know if that's because it wasn't funny, or if it

(02:15:37):
because I was just watching it into very like scientific
way rather than just trying to enjoy it, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 1 (02:15:44):
So I watched it, and there were some and I've
seen this argument that it's like, you know, a guy
could totally tell these jokes, but they're not letting the
woman do it, and that's sexist, and I go, I
don't know. There was one or two jokes that I
think if a guy told it would be much worse.
It would sound a lot creepier, like the one where
she was talking about like showering with her cousin or something,

(02:16:06):
and like what happens in my banging him. There was
something that I that I thought. I looked back on
it and thought, well, no, if a.

Speaker 2 (02:16:12):
Guy said that, is this like something that we missed
or is like weird ancestual did something big and the
news happen that has to do with incest not that
I know. There so many jokes about it.

Speaker 1 (02:16:27):
I think she was just going through her whatever her
you know, run up was, or like her intro that
gave her a lot of time.

Speaker 17 (02:16:35):
It was definitely a long monologue, and the all stand
up ones can be a little weird sometimes, uh so
that can stand out and not be great always.

Speaker 1 (02:16:46):
Gillis's monologues have been very hit or miss Yeah, and.

Speaker 4 (02:16:49):
And the reaction from the crowd is kind of stilted
on some of those. And so there's different things going on.

Speaker 1 (02:16:54):
But I always think, like the people who complain about
this stuff just who cares?

Speaker 4 (02:17:00):
Who cares? Why are we giving them any attention? Why
are we focus on them. It's like we still kind
of live in this culture that values that squeaky wheel,
and I say, to hell with these people. I saw
it so much this weekend that I'm just over it.
I'm over the people that take every conversation and make
it about like you don't agree with me and so

(02:17:21):
therefore you're bad or here's what my political takes are.

Speaker 1 (02:17:24):
It's like, dude, is it funny or is it not funny?
That's it? Like did she bomb or did she not bomb?
Not like why you're offended. I don't even care anymore.
I don't. I don't.

Speaker 4 (02:17:35):
I don't care about that part of it, and I
don't think a lot of people do. I think most
people just watch stuff and go was this good or
was that bad? That's it, that's what That's what wins
in the end of the day. Did you target the
right audience or did you not target the right audience?

Speaker 1 (02:17:47):
Right?

Speaker 4 (02:17:48):
Like, those are the things that that win in the
end of the day, and Saturday not life needs some wins.
So I don't know if this is going to help
them out. But I happen to think she's pretty funny
NICKI glay. I think she she's hard working, always involved
in something, always keeping herself relevant, So she's fine by me.

(02:18:09):
And I just don't get buttered over these things like
normal people. I don't find a problem with it anyhow.
Let's see what we got here from you as I said, oh,
we wanted to work in some dispatches and then I'll
play some of the other clips I've got held over
somebody says about mailbox money and from Rochester email tips.

Speaker 1 (02:18:26):
At the news Junkie dot com. Just letting you know.
I got my money from the Facebook class action lawsuit.
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (02:18:32):
I keep getting payments for you got more than one.
I've had three so far. Did you apply for it
one time?

Speaker 1 (02:18:41):
Now?

Speaker 2 (02:18:42):
One was much bigger. But I've gotten like four dollars
and three dollars really and forty dollars, So I don't
know how it works.

Speaker 1 (02:18:49):
Courtney had said she didn't get her as ever, she
was upset about that.

Speaker 2 (02:18:53):
I said, I think they it's coming, soom maybe you're
getting the long sum. I think it takes a little while.
I think it takes a little Tell what someone. I've
got a for the AT and T Kroll settlement. I
got an email about it.

Speaker 1 (02:19:06):
But it is all settlement.

Speaker 2 (02:19:07):
What's that Croll is the the the attorney that's behind it. Okay,
a law office.

Speaker 1 (02:19:14):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (02:19:15):
Was it like where AT and T Liker your information
was made public or something?

Speaker 2 (02:19:19):
Yeah, but this was the one that's like people were
getting at least a thousand bucks, okay, and I had
already gotten my claim for that, and then I look
it up and someone used my account number with a
different name. Oh really, because I want to go claim it.
And they're like, this doesn't make any sense because this
is with a different name. Oh blah blah, but it's

(02:19:40):
the one to my email, So I guess be careful
with that. Scammers have now entered the class action lawsuit era.

Speaker 4 (02:19:47):
Well, I will say that it looks like you're good
on the Facebook front because a lot of other people
are saying they got a couple of small payments like
four dollars here, three dollars there, and stuff some.

Speaker 3 (02:19:56):
Of the four days ago that says my claim is
approved and my a payment will be issued in the
next three to four days.

Speaker 1 (02:20:02):
But I think I gave him the wrong Venmo. So
I have no clue what.

Speaker 4 (02:20:06):
The other is gonna be so excited the country singer.
He's gonna be like, I could have used it. I
needed the extra money.

Speaker 1 (02:20:13):
Thank you so much.

Speaker 4 (02:20:14):
Other Sea lay very nice of you. When we come back,
we got oh I didn't even get to a dispatch.
Let me work in one or two. Okay, we got
we got enough time that we could do this. We
we definitely can't. Here's John who says he has a
song for Jackson. Let's see if this is good maybe badlane.

Speaker 1 (02:20:30):
What you gotta play for Jackson is a song on
YouTube called I Can Only Count to four. It's a
parody of let the Bodi Sit the floor with the Muppets.
Is hilarious. I have to see this now.

Speaker 4 (02:20:46):
I can only count the four as I think he
would dig that, only it comes up as a recommendation.
I can only count to four.

Speaker 2 (02:20:54):
I can only count the four I heard this.

Speaker 1 (02:20:58):
I can only count. I can only count. I don't
hate it. I don't hate it. I can't lie to you.

Speaker 4 (02:21:12):
That's kind of catchy. That's why it's got sixteen million views.
Maybe that's Jackson's newest songs say though, I would love
to play him a song that just encourages him to scream.

Speaker 1 (02:21:26):
Over and over and over. Oh didn't get a Facebook payment?
Did you? I have received a virtual prepid card for
four dollars in one cent sunny?

Speaker 2 (02:21:39):
Why did you have it at deposit?

Speaker 1 (02:21:41):
Big Time? They had to give me that because I
gave him the wrong Venmo. Here's hail Fire talking about
the baseball cheating scandal my news junkie, Hey, what's crazy
about the baseball betting?

Speaker 18 (02:21:54):
Yeah, is that Emmanuel class A was a closer for
Cleveland and the last three years had over forty saves
and was likely going to get one hundred million dollar
contract plus this offseason.

Speaker 1 (02:22:08):
So he basically treated.

Speaker 18 (02:22:11):
One hundred million dollar contract for five thousand dollars in bed.

Speaker 1 (02:22:15):
Oh my god, an idiot.

Speaker 2 (02:22:17):
Wow, that's what I was gonna say.

Speaker 4 (02:22:20):
Unbelievable, Like, why is he so desperate for that? If
that's the case, these baseball players make good money. He's
a picture for God's sake. Maybe I don't. I am
going to stay far away from that and the use
of the taste of ink.

Speaker 2 (02:22:36):
I have to a friend of mine immediately turn off
our show and listen to that song. So I just
need to get in the car, need to listen to
the whole thing so I can be productive the rest
of the day.

Speaker 4 (02:22:47):
All right, when we come back final dispatches, stories that
didn't make the cut, and today I learned to wrap
everything up for a Monday that is coming up next
in the news Chunky, we're behind right now.

Speaker 1 (02:23:13):
What happened here? How do we get sofa wine today? Yeah,
the taste of ink did it to us, son of
a bitch. That's that's what brought us here. Now let's
fast forward to the end. Let's do today. I learned the.

Speaker 9 (02:23:24):
Following information may make you feel smarter, but will not
actually increase your IQ.

Speaker 1 (02:23:29):
So don't get cocky.

Speaker 2 (02:23:31):
It's done what we call today.

Speaker 4 (02:23:35):
Taylor from Monday, November tenth, twenty twenty five. Tough one
here today. Learned this wrestler.

Speaker 1 (02:23:44):
He is the governor of Minnesotaventura. That's right.

Speaker 4 (02:23:48):
Following the election of Jesse Ventura is the thirty eighth
governor of Minnesota. They had bumper stickers that said, my
governor can beat up your governor all I lost the state,
which it's pretty catchy at the time. He did a
lot of stuff around then that went pretty viral today.

Speaker 1 (02:24:04):
Land Dominoes planned to add a dot on their logo,
the Domino logo, for every new place that they open,
and then they realized that they were growing way too
fast and expanding way too quickly, and they could never
keep putting those dots where the logo like where the Dominoes.
I think it's like two or three of.

Speaker 4 (02:24:22):
Them that showing a little I I haven't seen it
in a long time, but they could only hold a
couple there before they really ran out.

Speaker 1 (02:24:28):
Today land this show right here as right. Seinfeld had
difficulty reaching global audiences. That was popular in Latin America,
in Germany and France and Italy and the Netherlands, but
in some other cultures the comedy was seemed as too
complicated and too word based, and it didn't work in

(02:24:52):
markets like Japan, which would be funny. I would watch
it Japanese. I would absolutely positively watch Peanuts. I would.
I would tune into that every time today.

Speaker 4 (02:25:07):
And you can detect the heartbeat of a blue whale
from two miles away.

Speaker 1 (02:25:13):
I just wanted you.

Speaker 4 (02:25:15):
A blue whale's heart is about sixty gallons of blood
pumping with every single beat, just so you know.

Speaker 1 (02:25:24):
And finally today this band right here today. The lead
singer of the band the used, Bert McCracken. He originally
found fame in his first band called I'm with Stupid Ah.
It did really catch on, but the US did. Why

(02:25:48):
the US caught on because they were on the Osbourne's side.

Speaker 4 (02:25:52):
It was dating Kelly Osborne. Thank you so much for
hanging out with this. We do appreciate it. We'll be
