Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:11):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
I'll believe it when I see it. Everybody got exciting yesterday.
People in the streets celebrating.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
It's over cease fire, seiz fire. I'm gonna tell you
this right now.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
Already there's a delay, and depending on when you're listening
to this, babe, it's a podcast something like that, there
could have been several delays, several starts, several more stops.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
This is not going to be worth the paper it's
written on. It isn't.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Because Hamas will never change. They have to be eliminated.
Doesn't mean you have to kill them all, but you
have to give people some form of hope, and that
includes the rest of the Middle East that is in

(01:12):
Iran figuring out how they come aboard.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
And do that.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Hamas and the people and the powers that be, by
the way, not just Hamas, but across the board, the
Palestine Liberation Authority, the PLO with Arafat, all of those

(01:43):
never want to give up their business. Their business is
hating Israel, their business is killing Jews like that's their gig.
So they're never going to give up power. For the

(02:05):
celebrations and stuff yesterday, and the people that are excited.
Then who gets the credit. Most people don't want to
be well, actually most people who hate Trump. Most of
the news is being completely honest. Look, Biden had opportunity
after opportunity. The only thing that changed from the deal

(02:26):
they proposed back in May is Donald Trump said, no
isn't going to happen.

Speaker 3 (02:32):
You guys, remember this.

Speaker 4 (02:36):
If those hostages aren't back, I don't want to hurt
your negotiation. If they're not back by the time I
get into office, all hell will break out in the
Middle East and it will not be good for Hamas
and it will not be good frankly for anyone.

Speaker 5 (02:50):
All hell will break out.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
I don't have to say anymore, but that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
From what everybody's saying, his people over there negotiating. It's
the thing that changed. And Trump essentially said to bb
Buck stops here. Brother, it wouldn't sit. It's over, it's done.
It's time to move on. No more weapons, none.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
Of that stuff. Is that true? You wouldn't give us
any more weapons.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Well, bb doesn't want to start off with pissing off
Trump because Trump's one of the few supporters he has
right now. But already they said, eh, maybe we will vote,
Maybe we won't vote.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
They're already changing the deal. They're changing the deal. Yes,
Hamas is changing the deal. So they delayed the vote
because they said they've renegged on some of the deal.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
That's not real, Chad, they would never do that. I
remind everybody of Bill Clinton. In his book, he talks
about one of the great regrets, if not the greatest
regret he had.

Speaker 3 (03:57):
No, it wasn't her was Palestine. He did everything he could,
he got every concession, and yet right at the twelfth hour.

Speaker 6 (04:18):
And I tell them what Arafat walked away from, and
they like, can't believe it. I said, oh, yeah, he
walked away from a Palenstinian state with a capital in
East Jerusalem, ninety six percent of the West Bank, four
percent of Israel, to make up for the four percent

(04:40):
settlers occupy that we're beyond the borders in the sixty
seven more. And I go through all the stuff that
was in the deal, and they like, it's not on
their radar screen. They can't even imagine does that happened?

Speaker 3 (04:59):
Because that's their job. You're taking away their industry and
they don't want that to happen.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
We'll see where this goes. Like I said, I myself
will believe it when I see it.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Phase one, We're gonna get back these hostages, Dad hostage.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
We're gonna do this. We're gonna I'll believe it when
I see it. And each phase will.

Speaker 3 (05:30):
Have its own pitfalls, its own trials and tribulations three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chadminton Show is your
Twitter tweet? As texted program last night, after all the
excitement and a nap, Biden gave his farewell speech in
the Oval Office. There is a new.

Speaker 7 (05:52):
Deskn oligarchise taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power
and influence. Totally threads are entire democracy, are basic rights,
their freedoms, and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead.
We see the consequences all across America, and we've seen
it before more than a century ago with the American
people stood up to the Robbert barons back then then

(06:14):
busted the trust. They didn't punish the wealthy, just made
the wealthy played by the rules everybody else had to do.
Workers want rights to earn their fair share. You know,
they were dealt into the deal and helped put us
on a path to building the largest middle class, the
most prosperous century any nation in the world has ever seen.
And we've got to do that again.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
We've got to do that again. It's pretty dark. You know,
climate change, world's coming to end. The usual stuff that
he delivers over and over again, and you know, the
same old, same old, and how you know went after
the you know, the industrial complex and really the tech
world is what he went after. Uh. And it's funny

(06:58):
because the old Guary I was here like to the oligarchs,
the oligarchs and even I just saw a headline of
Minutego said, you know, Trump has wealthy people in his cabinet.
Trump has successful people in his cabinet. Why don't you
say that. Why is it always got to be about money?
Because Chad, when you're successful, usually make money. Okay, but

(07:20):
you have to be successful first. That's the old point.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
No, all of these people are handed their money capital
Larry Sharkdad.

Speaker 8 (07:28):
You know, we celebrate in America and the American dream.
It's our number one export. Slack was a college student once.
Look if he's created how many jobs, how much taxes
does he pay? Elon Musk maybe the most successful entrepreneur
in history, another aspect of the American dream.

Speaker 5 (07:42):
We should be celebrating this.

Speaker 8 (07:44):
And by the way, that message that Biden put out there,
that was Harris's probably number one message during the election,
how'd that work for her? We do not push down
on success ever.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
And like I just said, we demonize success. I mean,
like the fires are going on and people are like,
I'm glad your house is burning down. You deserve it
because you are evil and bad, and that dumb ass
lady's like, well, you know, if these people didn't have weights,
that they wouldn't have to steal your emmy.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
What it's crazy.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
But and the fight that's going on now, and by
the way, Mecca world's gonna have an issue at times,
I think with this.

Speaker 3 (08:33):
Which is populism. Populism of which they are talking about,
like we said yesterday with how do we do taxes
and then how do we give this? And how do
we do that? And we're not going to charge these people.
It's but we shouldn't demonize success. We shouldn't. And I

(08:59):
love how they're like, well, one person shouldn't have this
kind of power. Who always says that The President of
the United States says that, Okay, the freely. You're supposed
to be not you, but others are the most powerful
person on the planet. It was again, it was pretty dark.

Speaker 8 (09:20):
Americans appreciate the ability to pursue the American dream every day,
and we do not push down on success ever.

Speaker 5 (09:28):
So yes, Mosca is rich, So what and.

Speaker 8 (09:31):
Everybody else comes to this country almost drowning in rivers,
are getting cut under barbed wires to get in.

Speaker 5 (09:36):
Here to pursue their dream.

Speaker 8 (09:38):
Why do we ever think that we should bash their success?

Speaker 3 (09:43):
One agree with you, Sir Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank.
Rachel Maddow, who is vowed for the first hundred days
to return to television for those first hundred days of
Trump's presidency.

Speaker 9 (09:59):
B I had wondered heading into this speech whether he
was going to try to give some sort of warning
to the country.

Speaker 10 (10:08):
I did not expect it to be this star.

Speaker 5 (10:09):
He said tonight.

Speaker 9 (10:10):
There was an oligarchy taking shape in America, dangerous concentration
of power in the hands of a very few ultra
wealthy people, a tech industrial complex that poses real dangers.
Talked about a tide of misinformation and disinformation enabling the
abuse of power. He talked about the free press crumbling,
which put a shiver down my spine, and then talked

(10:32):
about how truth is being sacrificed for lies for the
purposes of power and profit.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Now, it's funny that they talk about truth being sacrificed
for lies. Blah blah blah blah blah. Free press going away.
Free press isn't going anywhere. But when people had the
opportunity to be the citizen journalist, they were shut down

(11:06):
because the same government that is saying these tech oligarchs
have too much power blah blah, we're calling those tech
oligarchs and threatening them.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
Remember. Oh yeah, I remember that three.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
It is the Chad Benson Show. Chad Benson California.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
Is still on fire, not as bad as it was,
I'm gonna see some more wins this weekend. They're getting
control of some of the fires. Lots of questions still
remain out there, first and foremost, how they doing firewise
as far as fighting some of these things, especially some
of the bigger ones.

Speaker 11 (13:31):
Palisades fire was twenty one percent contained, the Eaten Fire
up to forty five percent contained. Many residents are frustrated
they're not being allowed back to their neighborhoods. But we
saw why the fire zone is still so dangerous. Along
the Pacific Coast Highway, crew searching the rubble for remains,
and they're.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
Finding some remains a lot of animal remains, which is
it's that's hard to hear, right, and somebody's pet, but
you know it's not a human.

Speaker 3 (13:59):
But they're finding some of those.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
Well, I expect the number to rise, and the lawsuits, well,
they're already coming.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
Kids.

Speaker 11 (14:04):
A family of Evelyn McLendon, who died trying to evacuate
from the Eton fire, is expected to file a wrongful
death lawsuit. Her family suing Southern California Edison, claiming the
power company failed to turn off utilities despite the high
wind warning. Another lawsuit cites witnesses and video claiming to
show a fire at the base of a transmission tower
southern California. Edison not commenting on the lawsuit, but saying

(14:26):
our hearts remained with our communities during the devastating fires.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
Yeah, this is going to cost a lot. So I
was talking to my buddy yesterday, best buddy in the
whole wide world, but like you know, my uncle, my
best friend, but family, but my other bus buddy. We
grew up together. We went to co op together.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
If you don't know what that is, that's one like
my mom would take me to like a pre preschool
at like two or three with other moms. And he's
a big insurance jester guy. And I was talking to him.
I said, what is going to cost for serious?

Speaker 5 (14:58):
Brother?

Speaker 3 (15:00):
He said.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Quarter of a billion plus. I go, they're saying like
one hundred. He goes, Nah, it's gonna blow right past that.
He goes, I'll tell you right now, Chad. He goes
the houses I have to go.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
Up and look at.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
He goes, We're well into the one hundred and fifty
two hundred million dollar range. And I'm only I've only
got X amount of houses. I'm looking at in the
first like tranch of things I'm gonna do, and there's
hundreds of people like me, I said, good God, brother

(15:36):
frustrating three, two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four to
twenty three at Chad Benson Show. It's your Twitter, your Instagram,
all of the other things right here in the Chad
Benson Show. Then you hear that during the start of
the Palisades Fire they only send up five engines.

Speaker 3 (15:59):
Five They had many, many more. The other big news
besides the seas fire potential sees fire. I put that
back out. There's red dye three going away. Hmmm. So
if you guys don't know, red dye three has been
very controversial, but it's in all the you know, like

(16:21):
everything from you know, basically all that snacks and junk food,
red DYEP forty, We're coming for you, and it's everywhere,
and in rats it shows I could do some stuff.

Speaker 12 (16:34):
There have been studies that have linked RED three to
certain cancers, particularly thyroid cancers in rats. These studies have
been done in rats in animal studies. There really have
not been human studies that have linked RED three to
cancer in humans. But nevertheless, that's part of the concern

(16:54):
that's part of the possible risk.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
Now I'm saying that in nineteen ninety they banned red
dye three in cosmetics, but they still let us eat it. Hey,
don't put that on you. You could do really bad things. Okay,
you want to eat it, sure, just nuts. We need

(17:19):
a whole overhaul of the system. And look, let me
tell you something. You will find nobody more snacky than me.
But we need to be honest about the crap in
our food. If you're missing the show, grab the podcast.
It is the Chad Benson Show, Son, Chad Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (18:02):
Will it or won't it happen? At some point? Yeah,
the seasfire, but it doesn't take. See, that's just it.
We could talk seasfire all day. It's gonna be a seasfire.
But is it gonna take? Is there going to be
lasting peace? Is there going to be lasting peace in
an area where there's never been peace?

Speaker 2 (18:26):
I've always said this when it comes to what's going
on in places throughout the Middle East.

Speaker 3 (18:39):
When you have.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
Nothing to live for, you don't have a job, real,
no no means of outside of hustling, no means of income.
You've got a family, can't afford to feed them, maybe
they've been killed. There's nothing wise being a freedom fighter

(19:04):
in their mind, because that's what it is. One man's
freedom fighter, another man's terrorist. That's that's pretty good looking.
So you'll take care of my family. I'll get virgins. Ooh,
if you have a three bedroom, two bath condo, a

(19:26):
big report due tomorrow, you got a kid, and your
wife's pregnant with a second kid. When Muhammad goes.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
Hey, I want you to blow your ass up, I
got a really good plan for you to get on
a bus tomorrow, You're like, man, I got a big report,
I got stuff going on. My life's going okay, a
little stressful at times, but you know what, I'm gonna
give a hard pass on that. I appreciate it though,

(19:55):
that's what has to return. It's ever been there.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
But as we said earlier, Hamas, don't think of it
as a political organization. Don't think of it as a
terrorist organization.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
Think of it as a business.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Maybe a criminal business, but it's a business, and for
a lack of better terms, business for a while was booman.
And one of the things that they're asking them to
do is to eliminate Hamas in the ceasefire agreements as

(20:39):
they move forward, because.

Speaker 3 (20:41):
There's not one, not two, but three phases.

Speaker 13 (20:45):
The first involves a six week paus in fighting along
with the opening of negotiations on ending the war. Altogether,
over those six weeks, thirty three of the nearly one
hundred hostages held by Hamas would be released. Palestinian prisoners
would also be really least. This second phase involves the
release of all remaining living hostages and Israeli forces would
withdraw from Gozam. The third phase would initiate reconstruction of Gozam.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
Who who's paying for that? Well, that's where the Middle
East has to come in.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
All the countries that don't want any of these people
are going to have to step up, and not only
with money, but with guidance. But that's a long way away.

(21:37):
And the first thirty three I don't know if they're
dead or alive. Men, women, are the American citizens? Are
they citizens of other countries? Is it all Israeli?

Speaker 3 (21:49):
Are they old young?

Speaker 2 (21:51):
These are all questions that you know still remain unanswered.
And then you gotta look at it in the other way.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
Think about these women who have what for the last
sixteen months or so, have been kept in tunnels thirty
forty feet below gaza in nearly pitch black conditions with
very little food. And oh, rape, physical and sexual abuse.

(22:24):
What's that do to human being? My goodness?

Speaker 6 (22:27):
Me?

Speaker 2 (22:30):
And then the not knowing for some people finding out
even if their bodies returned, that their child, they least
know that that's what happened. And here is the remains
of your child? Because the not knowing, and then the
thinking are they being beaten today? Are they being raped today?

(22:54):
Are they being tortured?

Speaker 3 (22:55):
Are they it's it's he can't even put into words.
We shall see what happens. I'm not holding my breath
long term, that's what you're asking three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show
is your Twitter twin at US text to program? Meanwhile,

(23:15):
maybe you're not that OBEs.

Speaker 14 (23:19):
Obesity would no longer be defined solely by body mass index,
a calculation of height and weight. It would be combined
with measurements like waste size plus evidence of connected health problems.
The reports in the Lancet Diabetes and Endochronology Journal, it
suggests two categories people with clinical obesity, which includes things
like heart disease, high blood pressure, liver or kidney disease,

(23:41):
would be eligible for treatment. Preclinical obesity would indicate a
risk for those types of problems.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
So we're talking about red dyes and all these things.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
We got an obesity problem in this country and then
we've exported it to the world with our addiction of
not healthy food. But the BMI I was always stupid.
I mean Arnold Swartzennaker in his day, when he was
mister Olympia and whatever, he would have been considered obese.
So don't take in those measurements of muscle and certain things,

(24:13):
and muscle waste more than fat.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
So now they got a new way of measuring.

Speaker 15 (24:20):
Again, you still use the BMI as your first pass
screening tool, but then you want to drill down on.

Speaker 10 (24:24):
Does this person have pre.

Speaker 15 (24:26):
Clinical obesity or clinical obesity. So what that means is
do you actually have excess fat? So there are three
different main ways to measure that. One is your waist
circumference or a waste to hip ratio. So if your
waist is over thirty five inches for a woman or
forty inches for a man, that means you do have
excess fat or are you apple shaped versus pear shaped?

Speaker 3 (24:49):
Are you apple or pair? Okay? Interesting? Tell us more, doc.

Speaker 15 (24:54):
There are other tests you can use to directly measure
body fat. Some older women might be familiar with a
dexa tests to assess for bone thinning or osteoporosis that
can also be used to measure body fat. And then
drilling down further, are you having effects on your activities
of daily living as we call them? So? Can you
climb up and downstairs if you're not able to because

(25:15):
of your weight? That would be clinically obese. Do you
see damage to your organs, your kidneys, your heart, et
cetera because of your obesity, that would be clinical obesity.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
There we go. So we got a new measurement in
the world of obesity again, body mass index.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
You know, it's like, so, according to this, I'm five ten,
I need to weigh eighty two pounds. I don't think
that's possible. It was kind of ridiculous. This is new,
and you know kind of like, look, I know I
need to lose thirty pounds. We all recognize what we
can and can't do. And as you get a little

(25:53):
bit older, even if you're fit. Those things are a
little bit tougher. That being said, Boy do we got
to eat better in this country? Good God, Good God,
Almighty A week Chunky Folk three two, three, five, three, eight,

Speaker 17 (28:17):
A new record Illuminates twenty twenty four Year end report
says midway through the year, a Lot of Music took
the crown as the fastest growing streaming genre in the US.
It was quickly overtaken, however, by pop, with female artists
like Taylor Swift, Beyonce, and Sabrina Carpenter leaving the charge.
R and B and hip hop are still kings, though,
accounting for a quarter of all music streams in the country.

Speaker 3 (28:39):
That is a lot of songs. I didn't release the
song last year. It was that first year we kind
of took some time off we needed after the big tour.

You can produce hits from your house and get it
to so many people and become somebody who can, for
the most part, build an entire career without ever having
to actually sign a record deal, which is awesome, incredible,

(29:43):
But a lot of that's done on things like Kicktok,
and as we all know, there is a tick talk
going on.

Speaker 18 (29:50):
The app appears to be on track to be banned
in the US this Sunday. The Supreme Court yesterday passed
up a chance to intervene in Arkansas, Senator Tom Cotton
has now blocked an attempt by Democrats to postpone the band,
saying there will be no extensions, no concessions, and no
compromises for TikTok.

Speaker 3 (30:10):
None, zero, zilch nada. Tom Cotton wants it gone cotton picking.

Speaker 19 (30:18):
Tom.

Speaker 3 (30:19):
Hey, I'll tell you this right now. It's a big
deal in my house. I have kids. I like TikTok.
It's fun.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
But the Chinese man spying us in every way. But
I get it, trust me, I get it. I wouldn't
allow it on any phone that is in any way,
shape or form tied to the government. In fact, I
wouldn't even allow my family to have. The average person.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Man, it is, it is.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
It's addictive. It's probably good that we get rid of it,
but it is fun. I'm not gonna lie to you.
But you know, we sit here and we talk about
it yesterday doing my local show, and the station is
they're very magim and a lot of the you know,
these the listeners.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
See I'm having to retrain the listeners, you know how
that goes.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
And they don't get how people use it for business
or how influencers you know why it's a big deal.
We played some influence yesterday. It's like, I need money.
What am I gonna do? Because people are panicking. I mean,
you can think about this. You're twenty five, You've stumbled
into something that is making you money you would never

(31:41):
make anywhere else, and now you're like forty eight hours
away from it going away. And yes, there's some alternatives.
We'll get to those in a second, as far as
what's available now.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
That you don't have to worry about going away. But
it's not the same as TikTok. Can it be saved?

Speaker 18 (32:01):
There could be one less hope for TikTok fans. President ELEC. Trump,
who takes office Monday, is reportedly considering an executive order
that would give TikTok's owner up to ninety more days
to find a buyer. The New York Times reports TikTok
CEO plans to attend Trump's inauguration. Trump's nominee for Attorney
General on Capitol Hill yesterday declined to say whether the

(32:23):
Justice Department would enforce.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
The ban, and that's Pam BONDI. I don't know what's
going to happen.

Speaker 2 (32:33):
Apparently you go to the app on Sunday, it's going
to send you to website. They're not eliminating any jobs
right now at byte Dance, the parent company for TikTok
here in America, they're keeping everybody on the payroll because
I don't think they know what's going to happen.

Speaker 3 (32:51):
And is there some discussions with Elon potentially?

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Again, I don't know, because depending on what you read,
and it's day and age, it's hard to tell what's
real and what's not. You get some saying no, we'd
never do that, and then you get some even from
big papers and news outlets in China, going yeah, they're talking.
So I have no idea it's gonna happen. Now, there

(33:16):
are other apps out there, if you want to know
about those that are already climbing up the charts.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
We're just going to TikTok's other apps tonight.

Speaker 20 (33:25):
I'm if you're a TikTok band could take effect later
this week. Some Americans flocking to Chinese apps like Red
Note I'm a TikTok refugee and Lemon eight. Hello Lemonade,
this is my first video. Both apps have similarities to TikTok,
and Lemon eight shares a parent company ByteDance, the platforms
topping apples downloads.

Speaker 10 (33:46):
We are doing this to spite our own government.

Speaker 21 (33:49):
Some say it's a form of protest.

Speaker 10 (33:52):
I go into an app like Red Note.

Speaker 19 (33:53):
They're saying no, no, no, I am in control of
where I give my data, which is true.

Speaker 3 (34:01):
You should like to think that you're in control.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
But you remember, as we remind everybody here, when you
opt into something and it is free, you are not
the customer.

Speaker 3 (34:12):
You're the end product. Always remember that. So you've got
Lemonade and Red Notes, So the Lemon eight and Red Notes,
all the alternatives. I think one of them is actually
owned by bite Dance. I don't know this is going
to go.

Speaker 21 (34:26):
Some users, even protesting American own Meta. You will not
catch me on Instagram reels.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
And oddly enough should these things go away. Who stands
to benefit the most from this? Not so much Twitter.
People think it was Twitter. It's not Twitter. Twitter is

(34:53):
more news slash, crazy, politics, TikTok's all kinds of stuff.
So Insta would probably benefit the most if there was
nothing else out there, and people can go, well, I'm

(35:16):
not gonna do it. Look, if you're making your living
off of TikTok and Insta is the only thing you
could go to, you will suck it up, buttercup.

Speaker 3 (35:25):
Or you'll go get a regular job. Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at chadmentson show?

Speaker 2 (35:30):
Is your Twitter? Tweet at us text the program. I
love hearing from all of you right here on the
Chad Benson Show. Coming up next hour, more on the
seas Fire. So we really think this is gonna work.

Speaker 3 (35:47):
The ceasefire.

Speaker 2 (35:48):
Honestly, already today they're like, no, hold on a second,
you guys are changing the deal. Time out the show
that you're listening to right now, The Chad Benson Show.
We could go from ceasefire to know seasfire, back to
a seasfire, to ceasefire to back to another seasfire. All

(36:09):
in the space of hours. Just want you guys to
understand how fragile this thing is going to be. If
you're missing the show we had, the podcast, Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
This is the Chad Benson Show, the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
Will it happen? Won't it happen? Very interesting? I'm talking
about the seasfire. And even if it does happen, how
long does it last? Because yesterday the party was on
and by the time you listen to this, it could
have happened. It could have been undone, could have happened again,

(37:12):
could have been wrapped up in a present with a
bow and then unwrapped again.

Speaker 22 (37:17):
Douzens rejoicing at the prospects of reprieve from a brutal
war that's decimated much of the guzz and landscape, killing
more than forty six thousand Palestinians. Israeli is also relieved,
but many reluctant to trust Netteno, Who's governments after so
many false storms, and this morning Prime Minister Nettenau who
delaying cabinets approval, accusing her mass of reneging on parts

(37:41):
of the agreements.

Speaker 3 (37:42):
What they were renegged on part of the agreement? Maybe again,
this is this is what you're gonna get.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
Hamas is a business, and their business happens to be
terror and business has been Bowman.

Speaker 3 (37:57):
Don't know what else to say. I mean, you know,
lack of a better term, It's true.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
Now it's gone a little bit more sideways because the
people that you rely on to keep you in business
have just had their asses handed to you. But you
also recognize the group you're fighting, their leader is in
a bit of trouble as well, and you got a
new guy coming in. And the new guy has already
said to both of them, by the way, hey, this

(38:24):
ain't happening.

Speaker 4 (38:25):
If those hostages aren't back. I don't want to hurt
your negotiation. If they're not back by the time I
get into office, all hell will break out in the
Middle East, and it will not be good for Hamas,
and it will not be good frankly for anyone.

Speaker 5 (38:40):
All hell will break out.

Speaker 23 (38:41):
I don't have to say anymore, but that's.

Speaker 16 (38:43):
What it is.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
I've heard from several people who've said Trump has basically
told both.

Speaker 3 (38:50):
Of them get it done, period, and that includes you
bebee and you got to do what's right for you.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
If they're naked on the deal, that's one thing, But
if you're going to continue the way that you're doing it,
no more weapons, no more stuff. And that's kind of
a first because the deal that's on the table has
been there since May, but people are going The difference
is Biden didn't have the political courage to go, yeah,

(39:17):
no more, We're done with this and we're talking to you, babe.

Speaker 22 (39:21):
Negotiations for the rest of the deal will also begin
during Phase one, which if successful, could mean the end
of a long and devastating war beginning fifteen months ago
when Hamass invaded southern Israel and massacred twelve hundred Israelis
and others and took more than two hundred and fifty
hostages into the girl's strip.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
How many of U are still alive? What are the conditions?
Those are all questions that everybody's wondering. People sitting around
trying to figure out is.

Speaker 3 (39:48):
Their loved one is still alive?

Speaker 2 (39:51):
For the young women and the women, what is their
mind going through on a daily basis that they've given
up Oh, I mean, it's just it's agonizing. And then
you've got to get to the point where you look
around and say, okay, let's just say you get something done,
how real is it? And I'm not just talking about

(40:11):
this early on deal.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
And the phases and whatnot, because again the phases getting
through the phases, I don't even know what the hell
that even looks like.

Speaker 2 (40:22):
I'm talking about the long term viability. One is macro,
that's the big one. One is micro Micro is the
phase one. But you've got to get through all of
this stuff. What happens to you know, to Gaza, what
happens to how does it rebuild? Who's playing a part

(40:44):
in it, who's paying for it? And what the hell
is going to happen to Amass.

Speaker 3 (40:54):
Everybody looks at them as a terrorist organization because they
are terror though is their business. They're customers are Iran.

Speaker 2 (41:07):
And any other group that hates the Jews, that's their customers.
And they don't want to lose their customers. So it's
not just about Jimas but Hamas. This is a business
to them, and they can talk all day about well

(41:28):
they've been weakened.

Speaker 24 (41:29):
Hamas is in a much weaker position now than they
were in May when this deal got put on the table.
They're also more isolated with the ceasefire with Israel and Hesbeulah.

Speaker 3 (41:38):
They can't count on Heswla coming to their aid.

Speaker 5 (41:39):
Iran is much weaker.

Speaker 24 (41:41):
So there's been a lot of developments that have put
Hamas in a situation where they were more desperate to
get to a deal.

Speaker 2 (41:48):
John Kirby there, and that's the thing. Everybody's looking at
this in a much different way. I look and say,
all right, cut every potential. We possibly can't put a
stranglehold on them enriching themselves. That's got to be of

(42:12):
the utmost importance, and that's what's happening for now. But
to think that they're going to give up business for good,
that's the macro instead of the micro. And to do that,
not only do you have to take away their funding,

(42:38):
put their other customers, the other organizations, Iran and stuff
essentially out of business. But then you've got to re
as Gavin Newsom would say, reimagine what Godza looks like.
Because when you give people hope, meaning industry potential, jobs, potential,

(43:07):
I mean when you give them the opportunity to have
what everybody else has, including the people on the other
side of that wall. Well, you're busy living your life,
paying your bills, raising your kids. You think a lot
less about blowing yourself up on a bus.

Speaker 3 (43:31):
Oh yeah, it's probably true. So we shall see.

Speaker 2 (43:37):
Last night, Joseph Arbidens his name Robinett, is that what
it is? Gave his farewell speech to the world from
the Resolute Desk. Very interesting, no doubt about that. Climate change,
talked a bit about you know, israel I have even

(43:58):
talked about a lot of stuff, but had some stark
and dark warnings.

Speaker 25 (44:04):
President Biden, bidding farewell to the nation after half a
century spent in service, recapping his accomplishments, turning to stark
warnings of an oligarchy taking shape in America, the concentration
of power, he said, in the hands of a few
ultra wealthy people and invoking Dwight Eisenhower there showing what
he has dubbed the tech industrial complex.

Speaker 2 (44:24):
And if you don't know about Eisenhower, it's the thing
he warned JFK about in his final speech, was about
the military industrial complex and the power that it has.

Speaker 3 (44:38):
And to be aware of what is going on. And
we all know how that ended. So it was a
bit dark, there's no doubt about that.

Speaker 16 (44:47):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (44:51):
He talked about getting money out of politics. The dark
money and stuff.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
I mean all sounds it all sounds great, and it's look,
you passed your cell by date. Nobody's buying anything you're selling,
and you're going up there talking about how the tech
oligarchs are all this and all that falls on deaf
ears because you pushed tech oligarchs to censor everyday average

(45:26):
Americans who had opinions you didn't like. Well, is false information.

Speaker 3 (45:31):
I don't care. I don't care.

Speaker 2 (45:36):
Yeah, but somebody could have done something based on false
If you're going to do something based on a meme,
you're an idiot. But you talked about, oh, this is
going to happen, and that is going to happen, and
we should you openly, and by you, I mean your

(45:57):
administration within the tech world openly wink wink, nudge nudge. Threatened,
not threatened, many of these companies.

Speaker 3 (46:10):
And that is a you thing.

Speaker 2 (46:12):
So you can talk about the free press, you can
talk about all that stuff, but you wanted censorship.

Speaker 3 (46:20):
And you always say it's for the good of the people.
Let the people decide what's the good for them. Speaking
of the good for them. Red dye number three, long
an evil dye, has finally been eliminated by the FDA.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
Which, by the way, I proved it in nineteen oh seven,
but in nineteen ninety they said, hey, let's take this
out of cosmetics because it's not good for you.

Speaker 3 (46:50):
But I can still eat it up totally. Now, eat
the hell out of it.

Speaker 12 (46:53):
There have been studies that have linked RED three to
certain cancers particulgularly thyroid cancers in rats. These studies have
been done in rats, in animal studies. There really have
not been human studies that have linked RED three to
cancer in humans. But nevertheless, that's part of the concern,

(47:14):
that's part of the possible risk.

Speaker 3 (47:18):
Okay, okay, part of the concern, part of the risk.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
Again, you can't use it in makeup, but up until
yesterday it was still essentially illegal, and this doesn't begin
until twenty seven.

Speaker 3 (47:34):
So eat up.

Speaker 12 (47:35):
The most basic thing, and really the best thing that
we can do is variety in our diets, so not
to eat the same thing over and over and over again.
This is not something for all of us to freak
out about. This is something that has been in our
food for quite some time now. But again, limit where
we can variety in our diet not being exposed to
the same ingredients and the same thing over and over again.

(47:57):
Is really the best thing that we can do.

Speaker 20 (47:58):
Well.

Speaker 3 (47:58):
Good luck with that. I eat like a five year
old and I just want everybody to know that. Three
two three, five, three eight twenty four twenty three at
Chad Benson's show, shot Twitter, your Instagram and all of
the other things TikTok for now coming up. A lot
of stuff still to get to, some Marco Rubio. We'll
talk a little bit more about Pam Bondy and her
hearing yesterday.

Speaker 2 (48:17):
A bunch of other good stuff, including a little nature
will mess you up as well.

Speaker 3 (48:21):
Borer Capital twenty twenty five is here. The market? Is
it overinflated? Could it go south? What's going on in
your retirement? Are you worried?

Speaker 2 (48:32):
Are you positioned that should things go in a different direction,
that you are protected?

Speaker 3 (48:38):
Probably not. Everybody's pretty much just a cookie cutter. Don't
be that way.

Trek twour to three seven eight. It's a Chad Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (49:48):
Chad Benson.

Speaker 26 (49:49):
If we stay on the road we're on right now,
in less than ten years, virtually everything that matters to
us in life will depend on whether China will allow
us to have.

Speaker 5 (49:56):
It or not.

Speaker 26 (49:57):
Everything from the blood pressure medicine we take, to what
move we get to watch, and everything in between, we
will depend on China for it. They have come to
dominate the critical minimal supplies throughout the world. Even those
who want to see more electric cars, no matter where
you make them, those batteries are almost entirely dependent on
the ability of the Chinese and the willingness of the
Chinese Communist Party to produce it and export it to you.

Speaker 3 (50:18):
Absolutely true, Marco Rubio yesterday and is hearing China is it?

Speaker 2 (50:24):
That's what I've been saying. We've talked about it for
years on the show China. China, China. That is the
number one threat. And it doesn't have to be militarily.
If you corner the.

Speaker 3 (50:38):
World in owning things that the world needs, you can
dominate the world without ever firing a shot. There's a
reason that China is all over Africa.

Speaker 2 (50:54):
When we give money to places like Africa, there's stipulations, right, like,
you know, you can't do horrible things to women, and
you got to do this and that they do their
belt and road. They hand tons of money out the
country's zero stipulations, but kind of like a gangster, they're
not giving you money and not expecting something at some

(51:16):
point in time when they come a knocking and say, hey,
remember that thing. Well, guess what.

Speaker 26 (51:25):
So if we don't change course, we are going to
live in a world where much of what matters to
us on a daily basis, from our security to our health,
will be dependent on whether the Chinese allow us to
have it or not. That's an unacceptable oucome.

Speaker 3 (51:38):
Here here, I agree, Marco Rubio, who will be the
next Secretary of State. But ched, let's get to the
serious stuff. What about Greenland?

Speaker 26 (51:47):
Access to the minerals on Greenland are critically important. But
as more navigals space is opening up in the Arctic, particular,
this northern passage that goes from Russia to China, Russia
to Asia and could cut transit times by as much
as forty percent, the Arctic is going to become incredibly critical.
I think now we have the opportunity to see it
for what it is, and that is, if not the

(52:09):
most important, one of the most critical parts of the
world over the next fifty to one hundred years will
be whether there's going to be freedom of navigation in
the Arctic.

Speaker 2 (52:19):
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty
three at Chad Benson shows your Twitter tweet at as
text the program right here in the Chad Benson Show
also China, as China tries to dominate the c's in
certain areas, making it harder for people who are shipping
things in passage through those things. This will be one

(52:42):
of those as well. It's not just like, oh, I
want Greenland, because who doesn't want greenland? Overall, yesterday pretty
smooth for most of the people that were getting grilled
by the senators. Marco was kind of a foregone conclusion.
I think the sin's pretty simple. He's got a really
good relationship with many of the senators on the left

(53:07):
hand side of the aisle, and he's got a lot
of respect on the right side of the aisle. Obviously
it's his party, but as we all know, in a
partisan time, things can get a little wacky. So I
think he'll get through very very easy. Pam Bondy is
going to get through. And I've been saying this for
the last couple of days. You don't get to the

(53:29):
point where you're having a hearing if you don't think
you have the votes, and they know they got the votes.
It's just going through the motions.

Speaker 3 (53:38):
And we saw that with you know, Adam Schiff and
you know Pam Bondy going at.

Speaker 2 (53:43):
It yesterday, because that's it's no longer about the person
who has to answer the questions. It's the person who's
asking him. And part of that is on us because
we demand a show now. We want to show that
you're fighting for us. Do something, whatever it is. Give

(54:05):
me a show, give me a sound bite, give me
a clip. Are you not entertained? Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three That Chad Benson Show,
it's your Twitter tweet at is text the program Baby
have It?

Speaker 3 (54:16):
Thursday, it's the Chad ventson CHAB Then Chad.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
As the world takes a pause, look over what's going
on with Israel and Moss getting ready for the big
party that is happening on Monday with the inauguration. California
still has issues, fires, plenty of them.

Speaker 27 (55:01):
The winds are down, humidity is up, giving firefighters a
much needed break here, but also allowing authority is a
chance to try to restore services in devastated communities like this,
and investigators a chance to access some of the sites.

Speaker 5 (55:15):
Where the fires may have started.

Speaker 2 (55:17):
Yeah, the investigation is on because now They're looking at
this in several different ways, including the potential for arson
and whether or not power lines down, power lines that
weren't shut off when the winds picked up that then
broke and with them still being hot, all of a sudden,

(55:41):
you've got all of the fuel, all this dry brush
and everything.

Speaker 3 (55:46):
You see where we're going.

Speaker 27 (55:48):
Multiple dapors publishing images of what was possibly the start
of the Eaten fire.

Speaker 3 (55:53):
You see the.

Speaker 27 (55:53):
Fire at the base of the transmission totent You do
well if I tell you when you see that video.

Speaker 28 (55:57):
Data fire started at the base of the transmission time
or I don't know if there's any connection to Southern
California Edison or whoever owned those high tension lines above.
I don't know what started the fire.

Speaker 27 (56:10):
So kel Edison has said it'd seen no evidence their
equipment started the fire, but they are investigating.

Speaker 2 (56:16):
So we'll see how that goes. Because there are also
thoughts of arson in some places.

Speaker 3 (56:22):
I mean, how it began.

Speaker 2 (56:26):
Is now those are crime scenes, but while the fire
was going on, there's so many questions that still remain unanswered,
including the fact there's report out.

Speaker 3 (56:36):
That they only send five.

Speaker 2 (56:39):
Engines to battle the original blaze in the Pacific Palisades.
I want you to understand that they only sent five.

Speaker 3 (56:51):
When they had far more than that, And people are going,
whll whoa, whoa, whoa, what what do you mean? Only
send five? You could have sent how much?

Speaker 5 (57:03):
How many?

Speaker 19 (57:04):
Wait? What?

Speaker 3 (57:06):
It's crazy?

Speaker 2 (57:07):
So there were one thousand firefighters and thirty five trucks
that were available.

Speaker 3 (57:13):
They only sent five, five trucks.

Speaker 5 (57:15):
That was it.

Speaker 2 (57:18):
So more and more questions that remain unanswered at this
early timeframe, and I do mean early timeframe in this
when it comes to relief.

Speaker 3 (57:29):
What the hell's going on there.

Speaker 5 (57:31):
Is on the ground here.

Speaker 27 (57:32):
They say they've received fifty three thousand applications for a
dispersed twelve million dollars.

Speaker 5 (57:37):
I know earlier we.

Speaker 27 (57:38):
Talked about the winds subsiding, but next week two Santa
Ana wind events are forecast. Fortunately, the forecast says that
neither of them will be as ferocious as the ones
that cause the firestorms here last week.

Speaker 3 (57:52):
I hope not.

Speaker 2 (57:53):
But you got to get on top of these things
because even if they're not as ferocious, if the fires
are still raging, that'll just give them more strength, more strength.
So we'll see definitely going to be very interesting. And
in the cost we touched on a little bit last hour.
You know, they're like, it's one hundred and forty billion,
it's one hundred and fifty billion. I talked to my buddy,

(58:15):
this is what he does for a living. He's sending
me pictures from these places and he inspects these things
for the insurance companies.

Speaker 3 (58:26):
And he told me easily two hundred and fifty billion
plus easily that I'm like, damn, that's insane. California.

Speaker 1 (58:44):
Boy.

Speaker 2 (58:45):
Can't blame it all on you, right because nature things happen.
But the response, and if the response was you held
back thirty five trucks and a thousand firefighters at the
beginning of this, that right there is absolutely the dumbest

(59:15):
thing of all the dumb things that they've done leading
up to this, that' say hold my beer moment that
unfortunately ends with tragedy.

Speaker 3 (59:32):
We'll see. Yesterday we just talked about Marco Rubio and
yesterday Pam Bondi was also on the hot seat. Oh
look at that you tiring win the fire and tying
it in with fire is Adam Dipshiff.

Speaker 2 (59:49):
You guys might recognize that name. I think Trump said
he's not a long ball hitter, if you know what
I mean. So he and Pam Bondy of course, because
he's a senator. Now remember he's a senator. Now, they
had their tit.

Speaker 23 (01:00:03):
For tat Bondi, as you know, in a breathtaking, lead, dangerous,
and irresponsible decision, Justice Roberts and the majority held the
president can commit crimes using the Department of Justice and
be immune from prosecution. So the fear and the concern
we have is that the incoming president will use that
loaded weapon, that immunity to commit crimes through the Department

(01:00:25):
of Justice. And for that reason it is all the
more important that we have an Attorney general who has
the independence, the strength, the intestinmental fortitude to say no
to the president when it is necessary.

Speaker 3 (01:00:39):
So that's not the lies. You know, the president can
just commit crimes. No, No, it's not the way that works.

Speaker 12 (01:00:51):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:00:52):
And remember any of these things that are going on
in front of the camera, it's about who person asking
the questions, not the person answering.

Speaker 23 (01:01:00):
So my first set of questions has to do whether
you have the independence to say no when you must
say no. You would need a factual predicate to open
an investigation of Jack Smith?

Speaker 10 (01:01:10):
Is there not a summary by you sitting here, yes, sir.

Speaker 23 (01:01:13):
And not a summary by the president either, right, absolutely
so summary by the President or his desired to investigate
Jack Smith would not be enough for you to open
an investigation of Jack Smith?

Speaker 27 (01:01:23):
Is that right?

Speaker 10 (01:01:23):
I will look at the facts you know, and.

Speaker 23 (01:01:26):
Seven here sitting here, sitting here today.

Speaker 10 (01:01:28):
Senator seven must today sit in your department of.

Speaker 23 (01:01:33):
Just sitting here today, sitting here today, are you aware
of any factual predicate to investigate Jack Smith?

Speaker 10 (01:01:40):
Senator, I will look at the facts and the circumstances.

Speaker 3 (01:01:43):
You can't answer that question because it's not a question.
You're making a statement.

Speaker 2 (01:01:49):
The minute she answers that you go back to you
want her to give you an absolute I wouldn't investigate him.
So even if he did something wrong and the file
you want the answer today? So you want me to
say I'm not going to investigate anybody that you don't
want me to investigate?

Speaker 3 (01:02:07):
Is that? Is that what you want at a dipschiff?
Is that what you want?

Speaker 2 (01:02:11):
You want me to tell you that I've not seen
a file. I'm not the age yet somebody saying go
investigate that person? Doesn't mean I'm going to investigate them.
I need to see the file so you would investigate them. See,
it's it's a game. It's a game, and politicians love
the game.

Speaker 23 (01:02:29):
You seem reluctant to answer a simple question. Let me
ask you a different simple question. The president also wants
to jail Liz Cheney's sitting here today. Are you aware
of any factual basis to investigate Liz Cheney?

Speaker 10 (01:02:40):
Senator? That's a hypothetical, and I'm not going to answer no.

Speaker 23 (01:02:43):
It's not hypothetical. I'm asking you, sitting here today, whether
you are aware of a factual predicate to investigate Liz.

Speaker 10 (01:02:49):
Cheney, Senator, to investigate Liz Cheney, please answer my question?
Sure you're right?

Speaker 23 (01:02:55):
Now, are the root ms Bondy?

Speaker 10 (01:02:57):
Your robbery is a higher than the national question?

Speaker 6 (01:03:01):
Is this?

Speaker 10 (01:03:02):
That's what I want?

Speaker 24 (01:03:03):
Question?

Speaker 8 (01:03:03):
Is this?

Speaker 23 (01:03:04):
Do you have the power to say.

Speaker 3 (01:03:11):
He's not interested in anything more than the blank he's shoveling.

Speaker 23 (01:03:16):
So my questions now are can you tell our truth
to the president? So let me start with an easy truth.
Can you tell him that Donald Trump lost the twenty
twenty election? Can you can you say that? Do you
have the independence to say that do you have.

Speaker 3 (01:03:30):
You're a clown. It's the best best way to describe
you as a clown. We already knew that. Again, grand
standing one more.

Speaker 23 (01:03:37):
Maybe it will also be important that you give good
advice to the president. Are you prepared to advise the
president not to pardon people?

Speaker 10 (01:03:44):
I will look at every file, I am asked.

Speaker 23 (01:03:47):
She won't, So will you advise the president?

Speaker 10 (01:03:49):
Can I ask you the question? Well, my question, I
would have plenty of staff.

Speaker 1 (01:03:52):
You said, of course you want, you'll be able to review.

Speaker 10 (01:03:55):
I'm not going to miss this body, nor you.

Speaker 23 (01:03:58):
All right, let me ask another question. You don't want
to ask that me answer, You're.

Speaker 5 (01:04:04):
Just like this espresso.

Speaker 3 (01:04:06):
Amen. So that's how that went.

Speaker 29 (01:04:12):
Hey.

Speaker 3 (01:04:13):
By the way, Adam, you still have all that Russia information.
I know you've seen it all. You've got it all.
You're just waiting to release it at the right time.
When is that is it? When is it is the
right time?

Speaker 22 (01:04:23):
Now?

Speaker 3 (01:04:24):
Is it not the right time? When? When is?

Speaker 30 (01:04:26):
Second?

Speaker 20 (01:04:26):
To me?

Speaker 3 (01:04:27):
Just out of curiosity and get over everything that's happened
in the past. Can't change it.

you've come to the perfect place for takeouts.

Speaker 3 (01:06:01):
Today on the Chad Benson Show, we have a very
special episode of Nature weird Less You because it will
coyotes everywhere.

Speaker 18 (01:06:21):
Police in Chicago had to pull a coyote from a
grocery store refrigerator after the animal ended up in the
produce section hiding beneath the fine cheeses the emergency. One
day earlier, at Chicago's O'Hare Airport, a United flight hit
a coyote during takeoff, forcing pilots to divert the plane
back to the airport. Sightings are on the rise in

(01:06:43):
urban areas across the country. Experts say factors include more
green spaces in our cities and the availability of lots
of food from trash to small pets.

Speaker 3 (01:06:53):
Whoah, oh, that's not good. That is not good. Don't
let your cats and dogs out. Uh yeah, you heard
it right. The coyote was in the supermarket and it
wedged himself.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
So you know when you go to the aisle that
cheese and the meats and stuff, the deli meats and
they've got, you know, the little freezer, and then they've
got three or four shelves.

Speaker 31 (01:07:15):
It was in between police yanking the animal by the
tail from the produce section. Witnesses say the animal had
been roaming the parking lot when it somehow ended up
inside the store. Police in Chicago Animal Care and Control
safely removing that coyote who'd been hiding in a cooler
beneath a selection of fine cheeses.

Speaker 3 (01:07:35):
Fine cheeses. Indeed, this is just no ordinary coyote. This
one is sophisticated.

Speaker 2 (01:07:43):
Here's something of nightmares. Now, if you don't know what
the funnel web spider is, it is the meanest, nastiest,
ugliest at times spider in Austria. Because remember when you
go to Australia, pretty much everything there can kill you,

(01:08:04):
from the people to the critters. I'm kidding, of course,
they're wonderful human minx. I love Australia. If I had
to live one place for the rest of my life,
that was in America, Australia would be it. Because Britain's
lost their mind. That being said, the funnel web is terrified, poisonous,
can kill you. And they found a new species of.

Speaker 3 (01:08:27):
It not a fuel.

Speaker 16 (01:08:29):
You're a rachnophobia. But there is a new venomous species
of spider to be afraid of.

Speaker 32 (01:08:34):
I would not recommend touching them, that's for sure. They
do give copious amounts of venom.

Speaker 16 (01:08:39):
Scientists in Australia have discovered a spider that they've unironically
nicknamed Big Boy. This arachnid is a larger, more venomous
version of the Sydney funnel Web, known to be one
of the world's deadliest spiders.

Speaker 32 (01:08:53):
It's amazing this oze is still capable of killing someone
my size.

Speaker 16 (01:08:56):
This won't make you feel any better, but only the
male sid funnel web spider has the ability to kill
a human. The Australian Museum says thirteen dats from this
spider's venom have been recorded, but none since the nineteen
eighties when the anti venom was developed.

Speaker 2 (01:09:12):
And it's odd because you've got two versions of the
funnel web in different areas in territories throughout Australia. One
of them is potentially deadly the humans but harmless the animals.
The other ones harmless to us but will kill animals.
But this is a Big Boy.

Speaker 16 (01:09:33):
Researchers believe this spider is nocturnal, which means they're sneaking
into homes under the cover of darkness.

Speaker 32 (01:09:40):
They have been found primarily at night, the same as
most other male funnel webs would be. Sometimes you might
find them in a garage or in a bedroom or
somewhere in the house where they might have wanted in
during the night, and then they get sprung The next
morning when the people are at about moving. You pick
up a towel or a shade off the flour or
some shoes and the little mile has been haiding there overnight.

Speaker 16 (01:09:59):
Unless you live in in eastern Australia, you're probably safe
from finding a big boy funnel web spider, But with
travel and illegal animal trafficking these days, you never know
where one might end up.

Speaker 3 (01:10:11):
Yeah, and they will attack too, if you've ever seen that,
They got huge fangs and they rear up and they'll
come at you.

Speaker 2 (01:10:19):
And yes, they love to live in your shoe. That's
the thing of nightmares. Now we know nature can mess
us up. We talk about that all the time, right
from the wind and the rain to the seas, the earthquakes,
the fires, the heat, the cold, all of that stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:10:34):
The animals. Every once in a while, though, we'll turn
the tables on them. How do you mean, Chad, Well, Sometimes,
through no fault of us or even themselves, we give
them opportunities that we shouldn't really be giving them, but

(01:10:56):
we don't know they're there, so they take advantage of it,
and then the next thing you know, they're robbing you what.

Speaker 33 (01:11:03):
The people who run the Houston Police Department's evidence room
have learned a harsh lesson.

Speaker 5 (01:11:07):
Rudents, bugs, fungus, all kinds of things, love drugs.

Speaker 33 (01:11:11):
Peter Stout heads the Houston Forensic Science Center. Attorneys in
thirty six hundred criminal cases have been notified that rats
have been eating evidence, although Joshua Reese of the Harrow's
County DA's office says, I.

Speaker 28 (01:11:22):
Really don't think that this is going to compromise any convictions,
but it is important for defendants to know.

Speaker 2 (01:11:27):
About what's going on. The rats, in particular, are eating
the drugs. They're eating the drugs, and once they get high,
they're tough to deal with.

Speaker 29 (01:11:45):
I mean, think about it, they're drug addicted rats. They're
tough to deal with. You think humans are tough to
deal with. They're eating marijuana psychedelics, cocaine three two, three, five, eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show, at
your Twitter and your Instagram.

Speaker 3 (01:12:09):
Plus.

Speaker 2 (01:12:09):
For now, We've got the TikTok and make sure you
check it out Chad Benson Show TV. Right here, I'm
the Chad Benson Show. So will they get it done?
Won't they get it done? When it comes to the ceasefire.
I'm gonna tell you guys this right now. I don't
think anybody knows what this looks like today or tomorrow.

(01:12:33):
But if you were to ask me, what does it
look like six months, a year, two years from now,
unless other nations throughout the Middle East get involved, it
looks like what it looks like now, hate, anger, no trust,
and eventually war.

Speaker 3 (01:12:54):
Sad but true. But I give you the truth here.
It's a Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:13:01):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (01:13:31):
Last night, Joseph R. Biden bid everybody ado from the
Oval Office his last speech to the country as president
of these here United States.

Speaker 2 (01:13:47):
Hill Mark, my May, That's what he said. He's walked
out there, went May May. Would that'd be great? I
would like, okay, do more of that, and that's what
you did. More of that you might have won.

Speaker 3 (01:14:00):
I may no. He talked about all kinds of stuff,
climate change to oligarchs.

Speaker 7 (01:14:07):
An oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth,
power and influence.

Speaker 3 (01:14:11):
Not a guard.

Speaker 7 (01:14:12):
Literally, threads our entire democracy are basic rights and freedoms
and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead. We
see the consequences all across America, and we've seen it
before more than a century ago. But the American people
stood up to the Robert barons back then then busted
the trusts. They didn't punish the wealthy, just made the
wealthy played by the rules everybody else had to do.

(01:14:34):
Workers want rights to earn their fair share. You know,
they were dealt into the deal and helped put us
on a path to building the largest middle class, the
most prosperous century any nation in the world has ever seen.
And we've got to do that again.

Speaker 3 (01:14:49):
We've got to do that again. That's what got to do, man.

Speaker 2 (01:14:52):
So he went after the tech oligarchs last night because
it's easy to do.

Speaker 3 (01:14:58):
And look, let's be real, you've got what going on.

Speaker 2 (01:15:03):
They've all kind of said, all right, we're Trump isn't
the worst thing in the world. We got to deal
with him, so we're going to do that. But he
went after them because he's like, man, they just got
too much power. They've got way too much power. I
got to be honestly, I think government has too much power.
But last year we are But people, of course were like,

(01:15:24):
you know, people on the right are like, you know,
you guys lied to everybody. You pressured all of these
companies for god knows how long to basically shut everybody
up who had a different opinion, from the last election
to the you know, the vaccine and the origins of COVID.

Speaker 3 (01:15:45):
We can go on and on and on to the
damn laptop. So nobody's buying. How evil you think they are?
When they worked for you, you were fine, So instead
you turn it into well, they've got all this, so
they're evil.

Speaker 8 (01:16:01):
You know, we celebrate in America and the American dream.
It's our number one export. Zuck was a college student once.
Look if he's created how many jobs, how much taxes
does he pay? Elon Musk maybe the most successful entrepreneur
in history, another aspect of the American dream. We should
be celebrating this. And by the way, that message that
Biden put out there. That was Harris's probably number one

(01:16:22):
message during the election.

Speaker 5 (01:16:23):
How'd that work for her? We do not push down
on success ever?

Speaker 3 (01:16:27):
Why not?

Speaker 2 (01:16:28):
Whenever I see stuff and I saw a headline earlier
today said Trump's cabinets full of billionaires or rich people
or whatever. You know what, they don't say Trump's cabinet
is full of successful people. And nobody ever says, you
know what we really need in here to get this
business going in the right direction, poor broke, unsuccessful people.

(01:16:57):
They don't even say that at rehab.

Speaker 3 (01:17:00):
That's because people need money to buy drugs. Chat oh,
settle that more from mister wonderful.

Speaker 8 (01:17:07):
Americans appreciate the ability to pursue the American dream every day,
and we do not push down on success ever. So, yes,
Musk is rich, So what and everybody else comes to
this country almost drowning in rivers, are getting cut under
barbed wires to get in here to pursue their dream.
Why do we ever think that we should bash their success?

Speaker 3 (01:17:30):
I that is like, why do people come here? Why
did you come here? Is it because Oh? I was
broke af in my country with no future? My family
was essentially starving, and it was either commit crimes or
get over here.

Speaker 2 (01:17:52):
Why well, because this is the land of opportunity. This
is the land where you can make some of yourself.
This is the land where people have money and money
to be made.

Speaker 3 (01:18:01):
This is it. When they built the wall between East
and West Germany, it wasn't to keep the West Germans out,
was to keep the East Germans in. Oh, We're not
building the wall on the southern border to stop Americans
from running away outside of a few crazy liberals to

(01:18:21):
other great opportunities and freedom. No, it's to try to
stop the influx of people coming here for that opportunity.

Speaker 2 (01:18:29):
And here's something else that always needs to be reminded
when to talk about success, which doesn't talk about it enough,
is poor people want to be successful too, they do.
There's too much money in politics, there's too much dark money.
I totally agree with he said last night. There's so
much crap that I think we all agree on. But

(01:18:50):
when you get to get up there and you know
a lot of people talk about you know, his speech
echoing Eisenhower speech about the industrial complex, but his was
military and this is tech, and we you know, I mean, look,
let's be real tech is the world we live in now,

(01:19:10):
and those are the new movers and shakers, the nerds.

Speaker 3 (01:19:16):
But when you were going to.

Speaker 2 (01:19:18):
These companies and putting pressure on them to censure speech,
to do those kind of things, Man, that's pretty rich
for you to go out there and say something like that.
If the tech oligarchs didn't come around to Trump, you

(01:19:42):
think that speech would have been the same last night.

Speaker 3 (01:19:44):
Probably not. And they did come around.

Speaker 2 (01:19:47):
Because it's business, baby, because it's business, and they rent
the room.

Speaker 3 (01:19:52):
What's the room say.

Speaker 2 (01:19:54):
Hey, seventy five percent of the country thinks you guys
are putting us on the wrong path. They're sick and
hi to your bs. We're reading the room. That's what
the room says. Rachel Madam.

Speaker 9 (01:20:09):
I had wondered heading into this speech whether he was
going to try to give some sort of warning to
the country.

Speaker 5 (01:20:16):
I did not expect it to be this start.

Speaker 9 (01:20:18):
He said tonight, there was an oligarchy taking shape in America,
dangerous concentration of power in the hands of a very
few ultra wealthy people, a tech industrial complex that poses
real dangers. Talked about a tide of misinformation and disinformation
enabling the abuse of power, he talked about the free
press crumbling, which put a shiver down my spine, and

(01:20:40):
then talked about how truth is being sacrificed for lies,
for the purposes of power and profit.

Speaker 3 (01:20:51):
Enough for the disinformation and misinformation. If you are being
swayed by memes and post on the internet.

Speaker 2 (01:21:08):
That are doing such damage to you that you are
changing your vote or doing certain things, you're an idiot.

Speaker 3 (01:21:17):
Now, it doesn't mean stuff can't be true. You gotta
go check everything out.

Speaker 2 (01:21:19):
Yesterday, so I do my national show, as you guys know,
God bless you, and at my local.

Speaker 3 (01:21:24):
Show, my local show, the audience very very very right,
we're retraining them.

Speaker 2 (01:21:36):
I did the little segment thing we did yesterday locally
for you know, the misinformation about the fires, and it was.

Speaker 3 (01:21:46):
Amazing to hear how many people had what what do
you mean that's fake? I didn't even know that. Then
I started getting a bunch of emails and taxing what
about this, what about this? What about this? Buddy's got
their little world they live in. But you know what,
that's a you thing.

Speaker 2 (01:22:08):
If you can't figure out what's real and what's not real,
and you're not willing to put in a little extra effort.
We'd all like it to be easy, but we passed
on that when we wanted entertainment.

Speaker 3 (01:22:21):
Rather than information. Oh yeah, I see where you're going
with that.

Speaker 2 (01:22:29):
Yet, just throwing it out there, just putting it right there,
right in front of him. Will there or won't there
be a seize fire? And I say this because I
don't know. You may be listening to this a little
bit later, maybe.

Speaker 3 (01:22:44):
On the podcast. I'm not.

Speaker 2 (01:22:48):
I don't expect this thing to last. I don't expect it.
You know, it's starting at phase one.

Speaker 22 (01:22:55):
Negotiations for the rest of the deal will also begin
during Phase one, which is successful, could mean the end
of a long and devastating war beginning fifteen months ago
when Hamas invaded southern Israel and massacred twelve hundred Israelis
and others and took more than two hundred and fifty
hostages into the Gaza Strip.

Speaker 3 (01:23:14):
There's supposed to.

Speaker 2 (01:23:15):
Be three phases. Already things have gone sideways. So no
matter what gets done, there's no trust. Nobody trusts anybody.
Israel doesn't trust Hamas for good reason. Hamas doesn't trust Israel,

(01:23:40):
and Hamas is a business. I remind everybody that's been
kind of the theme throughout the day. Stop looking at
them for just a second as a terrorist organization. Terrorism
is what they do. But they are a business, and
one of these phases has hamas no longer being a business. Yes,

(01:24:01):
I don't think that's gonna go over very well. So
how long does it last until somebody decides it doesn't

Speaker 3 (01:28:32):
And Australian Open. All of those things are trending right
now on the magical world of Yahoo. The red dye
thing I told everybody yesterday and and I look for
all the stuff that happened. That's awesome and cool, you know,
with what had the biggest effect on our life yesterday,

(01:28:53):
Red dye number three, three, two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four, twenty three at you had Benson Show, it's
your Twitter, You're Instagram all the other things right here
on the Jad Benson Show. What Yeah, Because you probably
weren't involved in the Israeli Palestine conflict, you're not going

(01:29:14):
to the inauguration, but you do consume, as do all
of us, a lot of red dye number three. This
is doctor Whitbear talking about that red dye because it's everywhere.

Speaker 12 (01:29:26):
You know, the most basic thing and really the best
thing that we can do is variety in our diet,
but not to eat the same thing over and over
and over again. This is not something for all of
us to freak out about. This is something that has
been in our food for quite some time now. But again,
limit where we can variety in our diet, not being
exposed to the same ingredients and the same thing over

(01:29:46):
and over again is really the best thing that we
can do.

Speaker 3 (01:29:49):
Which is hard because we are creatures of habit We
are creatures of habit and as the Great Peter Griffin said,
I only eat what I like.

Speaker 12 (01:29:59):
But that's most There have been studies that have linked
RED three to certain cancers, particularly thyroid cancers in rats.
These studies have been done in rats, in animal studies.
There really have not been human studies that have linked
RED three to cancer in humans. But nevertheless, that's part

(01:30:19):
of the concern, that's part of the possible risk.

Speaker 3 (01:30:23):
No doubt.

Speaker 2 (01:30:24):
Look, we too much crap. There's too many chemicals inside
of our stuff. We need to be honest about that.
But as we've talked about in the past on this
very radio program, the tobacco industry sells addiction.

Speaker 3 (01:30:37):
And the minute the tobacco world changed, they went to
the food world.

Speaker 2 (01:30:42):
Three two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four to twenty
three at Chadbenton Show, is your Twitter?

Speaker 3 (01:30:45):
If you're missing in the show, we say, shame on,
you've had the podcast. It is The Chadbenton Show, The.

Speaker 1 (01:30:56):
Chat Benson Joe, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (01:31:20):
Guess what, my little plump friends, we may not be
as plump as we once thought, even though we're still plump.

Speaker 14 (01:31:29):
What Obesity would no longer be defined solely by body
mass index, a calculation of height and weight. It would
be combined with measurements like waste size plus evidence of
connected health problems. Reports in the Lancet Diabetes and Endochronology Journal.
It suggests two categories. People with clinical obesity, which includes
things like heart disease, high blood pressure, liver or kidney disease,

(01:31:52):
would be eligible for treatment. Preclinical obesity would indicate a
risk for those types of problems.

Speaker 2 (01:31:58):
So they're redefining obesity. Other we can all admit thin, plump,
really plump, ginormous.

Speaker 3 (01:32:07):
BMI was stupid.

Speaker 6 (01:32:09):
It was.

Speaker 3 (01:32:11):
Five foot ten, should be thirteen pounds. You're like, what
are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (01:32:18):
And it never takes into account muscle mass any of
that stuff. Now we all look, I need to lose
thirty pounds.

Speaker 3 (01:32:25):
I'm not a fool. But that being said, even when
I was super fit playing soccer I would have been clinically,
they would have looked at me and said, well, you're.

Speaker 2 (01:32:36):
Obese, even though I had very little body fat on me,
because I had was really kind of built back then
and my legs were giant, and because that's what I
did for a living.

Speaker 3 (01:32:46):
So that never takes that was never taken into account.
So they've got a new way.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
To look into your obesity level, but unfortunately they still
use that crappy BMI kind of two again.

Speaker 15 (01:33:03):
You still use the BMI as your first pass screening tool,
but then you want to drill down on does this
person have pre clinical obesity or clinical obesity. So what
that means is do you actually have excess fat? So
there are three different main ways to measure that. One
is your WTE circumference or a waste to hip ratio.
So if your waist is over thirty five inches for

(01:33:25):
a woman or forty inches for a man, that means
you do have excess fat. Or are you apple shaped
versus pear shaped?

Speaker 3 (01:33:32):
Ooh, apple shape versus pear shape. That's interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:33:39):
There's other measures as well, and you know if you're
out of shape, it's difference to mean like morbidly obese
out of shape they're talking about a lot of these things.

Speaker 3 (01:33:50):
Is the difference between some people who are really out
of shape, if they went for jog today, they may
die and for some people it's just gonna be uncomfort
but need it.

Speaker 15 (01:34:01):
There are other tests you can use to directly measure
body fat. Some older women might be familiar with the
dexa test to assess for bone thinning or osteoporosis. That
can also be used to measure body fat. And then
drilling down further, are you having effects on your activities
of daily living as we call them?

Speaker 27 (01:34:20):
So?

Speaker 15 (01:34:20):
Can you climb up and downstairs if you're not able
to because of your weight? That would be clinically obese.
Do you see damage to your organs, your kidneys, your heart,
et cetera because of your obesity?

Speaker 10 (01:34:30):
That would be clinical obesity?

Speaker 3 (01:34:34):
Have you so the other day I went up twelve
flights of stairs. That wasn't awful. I do that all day.
I got no problems with that.

Speaker 2 (01:34:47):
I don't take elevators unless I've got so much crap,
you know, or it's five hundred you know, you gotta
go six hundred flights.

Speaker 3 (01:34:55):
I'm not doing that. I'm not my grammy you said
my gramm was terrified of elevators. I mean terrified. So if.

Speaker 2 (01:35:08):
We went somewhere, and a lot of times when we
were younger, my uncle Paul would have meetings in downtown
LA and it would be on like the twenty seventh floor. Well,
I'm here to tell you that's a long climb, and
so we'd send Paul up, my uncle, and I'd go
with Grandma.

Speaker 3 (01:35:26):
And I will tell you that's a workout and a half.

Speaker 29 (01:35:31):
It is.

Speaker 2 (01:35:34):
And stairs are a very that's a great thing because
we've got them here, like because you know, I've got
my new apartment and so we're on the second floor.
But I'll go up and down the stairs, you know,
several times, just because it's good, especially if you're not
doing a lot. But all of this is just common sense, right,
I mean, that's all it is is common sense.

Speaker 3 (01:35:56):
Eat less, move more. Go from there.

Speaker 2 (01:36:01):
And you know the difference between you know, when people
think obese, they think six hundred pound person on the
TV show, but BMI classified you know, during that report,
one of the news guys goes, they classify me as obese.
That dude's not obese, But according to BMI is so
this is just kind of a new way of looking
at it, which I think some people might go, Okay,

(01:36:23):
that's a little bit better. It is speaking of your
health cancer news.

Speaker 14 (01:36:29):
In its annual report, the American Cancer Society says, for
the first time, cancer diagnoses in women ages fifty to
sixty four have surpassed men. There's a persistent trend of
diagnosis increasing for certain cancers in younger adults, and they
don't know why. The disparities of Native American and Black
patients more likely to die of common cancers than white

(01:36:49):
patients also continue.

Speaker 3 (01:36:52):
That's I think we know.

Speaker 2 (01:36:54):
People say, well, it's because you know what, they don't
serve black people or Native Americans or anything.

Speaker 3 (01:37:00):
No, a lot of times because people don't get checked,
and men in particular self included at times we'll put
stuff off. Let's be real for a second.

Speaker 2 (01:37:08):
Doesn't mean there's not access in some problems in certain areas,
but not everybody goes and gets checked.

Speaker 3 (01:37:15):
There's also more to it than just that, including with women.

Speaker 30 (01:37:20):
For the first time, if you're a woman under the
age of sixty five, you're more likely to have a
cancer diagnosis than a man one. We're seeing some increased
risk of cancer and breast cancer and thyroid cancer. But
what's really sort of striking is for the first time,
under the age of sixty five, lung cancer is now
a greater more like an in troulve of lung cancer
in women than in men.

Speaker 3 (01:37:41):
Wow, that's big. That is a huge deal, and we
touched on it, I think it was yesterday. The younger
generation that is getting cancers that you thought, mu, you're
thirty fived, that's something somebody seventy five has thirty five.

Speaker 5 (01:38:01):
It's crazy.

Speaker 30 (01:38:02):
Speaking of age, and we're seeing a shift and from
cancer over the age of sixty five, which has stole
the greatest risk factor to between ages fifty and sixty four,
and really an increase in incidence rate of people under
the age of fifty.

Speaker 3 (01:38:17):
Which is interesting. Again.

Speaker 2 (01:38:19):
Cancer, so much of this stuff is you know, a
lot of it's preventable, but we've also made huge strides
in certain areas. In other areas like pankrattic cancer, we're
still lagging way behind.

Speaker 30 (01:38:31):
We see a thirty four percent decrease in cancer mortality
since the high Water Market in nineteen ninety one. That's
over four and a half million cancer deaths averted largely
due to decrease smoking use, tobacco use, early detection, also
some new drugs. You know, we see much better outcomes
in melanoma and some kind of lung cancers.

Speaker 3 (01:38:49):
Which is great.

Speaker 2 (01:38:51):
The advancement in medical stuff is incredible. The advancement in
the technology that's out there that is going to help
the medical side stuff as far as drugs and treatment
is incredible.

Speaker 3 (01:39:05):
But of course there's one other thing.

Speaker 30 (01:39:08):
Us Over fifty percent of cancers are actually preventable cancer deaths.

Speaker 3 (01:39:12):
Tobacco is half of that. Tobacco is half of that.
Proud to say I've never smoked, never'd have done a drug,
and never had a drink.

Speaker 2 (01:39:28):
But there's also genetics too. People have to worry about
that stuff as much as anything else. So interesting to
say the least.

Speaker 3 (01:39:36):
And you know, being fit, dropping some lbs, not drinking
so much, not smoking. See where we're going with this.

Speaker 2 (01:39:48):
Healthier you are, the better your life is going to be,
for sure, because so much of what happens to us
when it comes to our health could have been mostly prevented.
Doesn't mean genetics don't play a part, but for the
most part, we could prevent a ton of stuff. Three
two three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty three at

(01:40:09):
Chad Benson Shows, your Twitter, your Instagram, chadbins Show TV

on this Thursday. It's the Chad Benson Joe.

Speaker 18 (01:41:31):
Serving up talk radio medium rare and dripping with irony.

Speaker 1 (01:41:35):
It's Chadbenson.

Speaker 14 (01:41:37):
The NYPD found that one quarter of more than twenty
two hundred high speed car chases last year led to
a collision, property damage, or physical harm or death. A
new policy effective next month, will limit pursuits to only
the most serious and violent crimes. New alternatives to chases
are being marketed to police departments, including the grappler, a

(01:41:57):
nets lowered from a police car that catches and wraps
around a car's wheel axle, freezing it. There are also
devices that launch a GPS tracker onto a fleeing vehicle.

Speaker 3 (01:42:07):
You know who else does that? Batman a grappler? Huh.
One of the other things the New York PD is
looking at is Spider Man. Can he help in this situation?
Of course, fighty can help. Speaking of crime from the
ground to almost the air.

Speaker 35 (01:42:29):
Imagine heading home to Chicago expecting a routine flight. Then
just before takeoff, your pilot gets arrested for allegedly being
drunk while passengers own Southwest flight thirty seven to seventy
two went through that today in Georgia.

Speaker 5 (01:42:42):
This is David Also. He's fifty two from New Hampshire.

Speaker 35 (01:42:45):
Police say he showed up intoxicated at Savannah Hilton Here
Airport an early Wednesday morning.

Speaker 5 (01:42:51):
Officers arrested in before the flight to Chicago could leave.

Speaker 35 (01:42:55):
Passengers waited for four hours while Southwest to lay the
flight and scrambled to rebook them.

Speaker 3 (01:43:00):
Southwest says is.

Speaker 35 (01:43:02):
No longer flying for them, and they apologize the passenger,
saying there's nothing more important than their safety. Alsop as
now charge with du Y and his career might be over.

Speaker 3 (01:43:14):
You know some people are going wait, hold on a second.
Four hours. He can get it up in the air though, right,
like you're good, Like you get it up in the air, right? God, yeah,
I could totally get it in the air. You know,
that's how long is the flight. It's a four hour
flight too. He'll be fine by the time we land.
He should be sober. Give him some coffee, le him
take a little bit of a nap. He'll be good.

(01:43:37):
I got somewhere to bees what I'm trying to say. Okay,
if I have to take my shoes off still before
I get on a plane, it seems a little weird
that I seem to kind of have to wonder if
my pilot is sober whatever, God so picky. Next thing?
You know, you want a plane to have wings. We

(01:43:57):
are not too far away from it. People. Can you
feel the ten building up? Yeah? I know right? TikTok
no more.

Speaker 18 (01:44:05):
A law passed by Congress last year requires TikTok's parent
company byte Dance to find a buyer not controlled by
a foreign adversary, but with no sale apparently imminent. Reuters
reports TikTok is preparing to shut down US operations, saying
users attempting to open the app will see a pop
up message directing them to a website with information about

(01:44:27):
the band.

Speaker 2 (01:44:28):
No, it's a very big topic of conversation around my house.
My wife loves the TikTok. I've got two fourteen year olds.
I don't know if you're aware of this. They also
love the tick in the talk. I have a sixteen
year old who also loves the tick and the talk.

Speaker 3 (01:44:48):
My six year old likes toke Life World, which is
a game that is just a silly game for kids
her age, and it's fun and I like it that way.
But could it go away? Is there any hope? Could
there be any hope? One last hail Mary? There could

(01:45:11):
be one less hope for TikTok fans. President ELEC.

Speaker 18 (01:45:14):
Trump, who takes office Monday, is reportedly considering an executive
order that would give TikTok's owner up to ninety more
days to find a buyer. The New York Times reports
TikTok CEO plans to attend Trump's inauguration. Trump's nominee for
Attorney General on Capitol Hill yesterday declined to say whether
the Justice Department would enforce the ban.

Speaker 3 (01:45:36):
We shall see what takes place. Now. A lot of
people are assuming it's going away. That's going away. It's
never going to freak it out right the whole.

Speaker 2 (01:45:47):
And look, if you're twenty five and something you started
goofing around on is now making you tens of thousands
of dollars a month and this has become your job,
you would be worried if your industry was going to
go away as well.

Speaker 3 (01:46:03):
Now there are other places you can go.

Speaker 2 (01:46:05):
I get that as far as what we have here
with Instagram, reels, shorts on YouTube, Facebook, but TikTok is
the place for them. And it's not just about influence,
by the way, and I think a lot of people
think it's only about influencers. Small business and businesses do
really well on the tick and the talk, so should

(01:46:28):
it go away?

Speaker 3 (01:46:29):
Are their alternatives?

Speaker 10 (01:46:31):
We're just going to TikTok's other apps tonight.

Speaker 20 (01:46:34):
Amid if you're a TikTok band could take effect later
this week. Some Americans flocking to Chinese apps like red
Note I'm a TikTok refugee and lemon eight. Hello Lemonade,
this is my first video. Both apps have similarities to TikTok,
and lemon eight shares a parent company ByteDance the platforms
topping apples downloads.

Speaker 10 (01:46:55):
We are doing this to spite our own government.

Speaker 21 (01:46:57):
Some say it's a form of protests.

Speaker 19 (01:47:00):
By go into an app like RNA. They're saying, no, no, no,
I am in control of where I give my data.

Speaker 3 (01:47:09):
Well, settle yourself down.

Speaker 2 (01:47:11):
We have opted into giving up so much of our
freedom and our privacy. That being said, and I think
a lot of people think that TikTok's only about gathering
data when it comes to the Chinese Communist Party, which
we know they do, it's also about the influence the
algorithm has on our society. It's not just singularly about

(01:47:33):
whether or not they're able to spy on Americans. Can
they influence us? Can they take us away from things
we should be focusing on to nonsense, Those are some
of the things that people are worried about as well.
We're going to find out what happens though on Sunday.
I wouldn't be surprised, though, if this thing gets at
least another.

Speaker 3 (01:47:53):
Ninety days or so. As we wrap about the show today,
we like doing this. It's fun, it's great, it's relaxing.
He gives us words of wisdom. You know what I'm
talking about. No, it's time for the Gary Pucy moment
of the day.

Speaker 36 (01:48:14):
And I understood by not understanding and by not thinking,
what's good to do as us reorganize your organizations because
you write things down, you won't to remember what you
want to do. And you're going to save the lady
you put in a pile. We'll go through that pile
and take out the old stuff or replace it with
new stuff that has to do with your meaning of
life today as you're living in it's a beautiful place

(01:48:37):
to be. Reorganization of organization.

Speaker 5 (01:48:41):
Ey Ah.

Speaker 2 (01:48:43):
Words of wisdom from a mad Man three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson
Shows your Twitter tweet as text the program, Loving from
all of you right here in the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (01:48:56):
Solid fun show today.

Speaker 2 (01:48:59):
Lots of stuff we got through again, the ceasefire, yes, no,
maybe think about it this way, yes now, maybe later, no, later.
All of those things are going to take place because
nothing is changing at the moment.

Speaker 3 (01:49:17):
And as long as hamas the business is still in business,
then they want no business.

Speaker 2 (01:49:28):
Without them being around. And I think that's something that
people need to start focusing on. You guys, have a
blessed rest of your whole by a second, Ah, I
see you Friday night, night Jack.

Speaker 1 (01:49:39):
This is the cham Benson Show.
