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

Speaker 2 (00:15):
This is the Chad Benson Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in, thrilled to be with you. A bunch of
stuff out there in the world to talk about. Probably
one of my favorite pieces of audio that I've heard
in a while is out there in the world. This
would be jd Vance once again, just expertly reacting to

(00:35):
or correcting some odd behavior for mainstream media. They are
mad at how good he is at this. I'll say
that they being these mainstream media outlets that don't want
it to be pointed out as often as it is
that there is, you know, irrational or as one sided
as they are. Here's the latest example. Jd Vance versus
Martha Raddits. The conversation versus Martha Raddits. Conversation is how

(01:01):
many Venezuelan gangs have taken over different apartment complexes in
the country. The correct answer should be that this should
have happened zero times. They both agree it has happened
more than zero times. A Van seems to think that's
a bigger deal than Rabbits.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
Here we go the incidents.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
We're limited to a handful of apartment conflex, apartment complexes,
and the mayor said, our dedicated police officers have acted
on those concerns. A handful of problems.

Speaker 5 (01:32):
Only, Martha, do you hear yourself? Only a handful of
apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs.
And Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris's
open border. Americans are so fed up with what's going on,
and they have every right to be. And I really
find this exchange, Martha's sort of interesting because you seem

(01:52):
to be more focused with nitpicking everything that Donald Trump
has said, rather than acknowledging that apartment complexes in the
United States of America are being taken over by violent gangs.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yeah, that's not good.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
That's usually not good. That's bad. We don't want that.
We don't want any of that. I love the degrees
or fifty shades of gray. I guess version of a
discussion that's not a good reference for this that's going
on right there, where you're saying it's not so bad
because it's only happening a little bit. No, that's a
new standard in our country. We used to think that
any of this would be bad if Donald Trump is

(02:27):
somehow to blame for any sort of apartment complex takeover
anywhere in the country.

Speaker 3 (02:32):
It would be all over the news. It would be
the end of the world as we know it.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
And also how far we've gone in the world of
political rhetoric compared to what we used to have a
it would be wall to wall coverage. But it's not
that and not discussed that this has happened. But I
love that beginning from jd Vance, like do you hear yourself?
Is this really what I'm arguing with that it's only
happened a little bit, as opposed to not at all.

(02:56):
By the way mainstream media, or at least Saturday Night Live,
is more willing to take shots at Harris than I've
ever heard of them be. And I want to tinfoil
hat this for you. I want to throw on the
conspiracy theory glasses and tell you why I think this
is going on. I just don't know. It's genuinely funny,
so I'm not sure if any of those conspiracy theory

(03:17):
things would hold true or not. Like somehow the democratic
machine is now upset with Harris, so they're allowing her
to me made fun of more. I've never really prescribed
to that idea that there's a overarching group that has
control over how everything in media goes. I know I'm
in the minority sometimes in certain circles when I say that,
but darn it, that's how I feel. But nonetheless, like

(03:38):
Saturday Night Live for years now has not really gone
after the Democratic candidate for that office, the real one.
But they started to make fun of Biden and that
worked out well. So now they're making fun of Harris
and her word salid version of answers to things. Here
is a sketch where she's against Trump and his family
on family feud, and this is the way she answers

(03:59):
very pinfully a question and a survey of one hundred people.
This is genuinely humorous. So I don't know if they
did this by accident or on purpose. And again I'm
gonna leave the tinfoil hot stuff to the side.

Speaker 6 (04:09):
Okay, one hundred people surveyed. Top takes answers on the board.
Name something that you're keeping your glove compartment, Oh, VP.

Speaker 7 (04:16):
Harris, Steve. Look, I was raised in a middle class family,
all right, Oh, here we go. Okay.

Speaker 8 (04:23):
My mother raised my sister me, all right, She worked
hard and saved up and we had a second mother too.

Speaker 9 (04:31):
Okay, did that mother have a glow compartment?

Speaker 7 (04:35):
A small business owner named miss Shelton?

Speaker 9 (04:37):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Oh god?

Speaker 6 (04:38):
That something that you keep in your local apartment?

Speaker 3 (04:40):
Any of that?

Speaker 6 (04:41):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (04:41):
A glock? See if a big old glock.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yes. Harris recently claimed that she owns a glock when
she was asked what type of guns she owns in
an interview, Which is amazing. That's that's genuinely funny, And
to be honest, Saturday Night Live has been as it's
at its best in our country when it's equally made
fun of both sides, not just one side.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
As often as it does and as often as that.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
You know, target is Trump specifically, and not even a
whole lot of other Republican candidates. But I do find
that funny, and I do find that interesting, and I
do believe that this comes from a place where, say,
a whole lot of Americans are seeing the truth on
the streets.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
Whatever that truth is for you.

Speaker 2 (05:22):
It could just be that you know, prices at the
pumper more expensive than you want them to be, or
prices in the grocery store more expensive than you wanted
to be, or whatever the other lies are that are
told they're just the lack of answering questions. It is
interesting for a specific side of the aisle to try
to hold itself up as the good people, the better side,

(05:42):
the side that you'd want to work with or want
near you in times of chaos, and yet constantly are
also telling you that what you're seeing in real life
isn't actually happening, and it's making more people aware.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
One other thing here, I'll play this too. This is
Tim Walls.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
He's being asked a question about Harrison about her turn
the page a version of a campaign promise, which is
odd because she's currently in a position of power, as
you and I know and talk about, and not even
that she did interview on the View of the Vice
President where she said she wouldn't really change a whole
lot of some of these policies that Biden has as

(06:18):
far as legal immigration goes or the economy, essentially defending
their position instead of turning the page at all.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
So here this is the way it was asked in.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Tim Walls, surprisingly or maybe unsurprisingly to a lot of people,
had absolutely no answer for.

Speaker 10 (06:32):
The question, how specifically do you turn the page? That's
the case you're making about turning the page out of
the administration that a Vice President Harris is a part of,
and that b as recently as this week, she has
been reluctant to criticize or say she would change anything about.

Speaker 11 (06:48):
Yeah, well, I think keeping in mind, the big difference
here in the choice is going to be the different
between Kamala Harrison Donald Trump.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
I'm not answering your question, sir. I'm just going to
talk about Trump.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
And said because I believe that's hopefully a winning message
with my side of the aisle. I don't want to
tell you anything else about how we're not actually turning
the pages at all. Oh and by the way, as
far as like crazy rhetoric goes from the left, I
have one other thing I could play. Jasmine Crockett did
an interview an MSNBC. She's someone who says a lot
of crazy things, actually, and she claimed that the problems

(07:19):
going on in Springfield, Ohio have nothing to do with
illegal immigration there and the amount of people who you know,
might be doing some crazier things that they shouldn't be
doing in that area. It actually is because of well
Mago white supremacists. Those are the people that are the
challenge in society. Here, according to her, this is incredible.

(07:41):
This is position everything to be as anti Trump as possible,
just by somehow blaming him once again, if you have
nothing else you can say about the situation, that's how
Democrats respond to most situations.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
Here we go.

Speaker 9 (07:53):
She said that.

Speaker 12 (07:54):
We've got these cities and these towns that are being
overrun by gangs and the primet of control.

Speaker 3 (08:00):
I absolutely agree with that.

Speaker 7 (08:01):
And guess what, it's the Maga gang.

Speaker 12 (08:04):
It is the white supremacists that have decided to descend
upon places such as Springfield, Ohio. So I agree with him,
I just disagree with who the problems are.

Speaker 13 (08:14):
The problems are him and his minions.

Speaker 12 (08:17):
The problems aren't the people that have come to make
our economy stronger, the people that have actually been able
to help to continue to make sure that we got
out of the big.

Speaker 7 (08:28):
Hole that he put us in.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
Wait wait a minute, she's actually saying that people that
are illegally in places like Springfield are making things better
for the economy, not making things worse for the economy.
That's a weird take, that's a weird position to have.
But nonetheless, I'll also honestly actually I'll stay on that
for a second. I think Nancy Pelosi, very famously a
couple of years ago, said that if we didn't have

(08:50):
people here illegally, there's certain jobs that wouldn't happen in
our country. Think about the ridiculousness of that position. And
what I mean by that is the desire to have
companies that can take advantage of people who don't have
a legal right to be here by underpaying them for
difficult jobs and preventing Americans from getting those jobs at
real salaries because someone can't afford that.

Speaker 3 (09:11):
That's amazing.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
That feels like the party that desires to take advantage
of people much more than someone saying that I'd call
for removing people who are here illegally so other people
might wind up working these jobs in.

Speaker 3 (09:24):
A more legal way. It's just surreal to me.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
But nonetheless, I just love the fact that you're like, no, no, no,
the people who are to blame are not the people
you think they are.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
They're somebody else.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
And I'm not trying to sit here on the radio
and Chad Show and tell you that you know, every
single person who's coming to this country illegally is a horrible, terrible, person.
I know you get in trouble and people yell and
scream about that. I'm not saying that. I'm not trying
to do that at all. I just think it's amazing
the way in which someone can reevaluate what they're seeing

(09:55):
based on how strong their opinion is of something that essentially,
it'd be like going to a movie and asking her
how the movie went at the end and her thinking
it was totally different than the movie you just saw,
and not knowing how you guys sat in the same theater.
I don't know a really good example of that other
than How I Met your Mother. It's a weird thing
to acknowledge, but I'm going to do it. How I

(10:16):
Met your Mother famously had a character that thought the
hero of Karate Kid was not Danny Russo but was
in fact William Zapka's character. That that kid, the bad guy,
was essentially the real Karate Kid. And I think that's hilarious,
and I think that's essentially what's happening now in politics
is we're all going to the first Karate Kid movie
and some of us are walking out thinking that this

(10:38):
kid's the better guy, or this kid's the better kid,
and not realizing who's supposed to be the bad guy,
who's supposed to be the good guy. All the wax
on wax offs don't help us at all for some reason. There,
I just find that hilarious. But there's so much of
that I got James Carville I'm gonna play later today
with his version of crazy rhetoric that's out there. You
had somebody picked up again outside of a rally and California,

(11:00):
with guns in the proximity of Trump. Even if he's
someone that claims he wasn't there to hurt Trump. The
biggest narrative now is that guy's already had a jail.
He was found with guns in his car close to
a place where Trump was speaking, and was told that
it's okay, there's just misdemeanors. You can go ahead and
get back out of prison. We don't have to keep
you there. And again, apparently he's a Trump supporter or

(11:21):
something I guess I've heard. But sort of surreal to
see that story out there in the news too. All Right,
we got a lot to talk about today, a lot
coming up on the show. I promise we won't just
be serious, we'll be silly. There's a dude out there
with a very hot take about why he wants to
divorce his wife on one of my favorite places on Reddit.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
Am I the Jerker? Am I the A word?

Speaker 2 (11:41):
We'll get to that. We'll get to a lot of
stuff coming up. Craig Collins filling in on the Chad
Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Welcome to tribal free Radio. Information over affirmation, Facts over fiction.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
It's ridiculous and I want you to know.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
That you call it ridiculous, we call it reality. Such
a crock Real over fake.

Speaker 15 (13:25):
God Helpless the truth, you can't handle the truth.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
The Chad Benson Show, Fighting truth decay the American Way.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
This is the Chad Benson Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in, Thrilled to be with you. A bunch of
stuff out there in the world to talk about. And
yet one topic that's viral all over the place involves
a Jenna Ortega the actress and her character Wednesday. Apparently,
people this is a TikTok trend, are showing up in
certain stores and flipping the hair of the Wednesday doll

(14:02):
this little like, you know, stuffed animal kind of thing,
stuffed person thing, so that that she looks bald because
it's that easy to flip the hair back behind the head.
And even Jenna Ortega the actress is now complaining to
stop mistreating her tulsor. I think she just said, please, don't.
I imagine she's more joking than not, because this is hilarious.
If you've seen this anywhere, I haven't. I've just seen

(14:23):
the photos of it. It's a bunch of what looks
like bald little dudes instead of Wednesday Adams characters. I
don't know why anyone has enough time to do this
in stores, but I'm not judging them for it, and
I do think it's kind of hilarious.

Speaker 3 (14:36):
So that's out there in the world.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Another thing I saw that I just kind of thought
was amusing or funny, and this is this is weird.
I'm gonna I'm gonna preface with I understand that this
is weird, and I can't help myself for thinking that
this is funny. But apparently someone won a huge court
case ninety million dollars for getting harmed on a New
York subway and losing an arm and a leg. That

(14:58):
part's not funny, but it caused a debate as to
how much money your body parts are actually worth. Is
ninety million too high or not enough? Was the way
the Internet received the story, and there's viral posts about
how much certain parts of your body usually get you
in a court case, which is again odd and dark
in humor, but something that I can't get over.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
Pinky finger only like six grand.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
Most people would probably sacrifice a finger that finger if
you thought you were making a bunch of money off
of it, but unlikely to pay out high. Same with
the pinky toe. Not a whole lot of money there.
But there are parts of your body that pay much
bigger than others. And I do think an arm and
a leg and ninety million makes a whole lot of
sense to me.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
It's crazy to.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Think that people would complain about this being too high
as far as money goes. But you tell us you decide.
You can tell us on Chad's Facebook pages. This is
the Chad Benson Show, and this is Craig Collins filling
in on the Chad Benson Show. Some of the other
things that I thought were funny on this list, as
far as maybe these people just had terble lawyers function

(16:02):
is you know, feels too low. This feels like it's
it's not you know, enhanced enough by inflation. As everything
else is out there in the world, these numbers should
be going up. But again, I'm not going to be
someone that shames someone forgetting ninety million dollars after they
use lose an arm and a leg on the New
York City train or on a subway station. That that
feels like an underpayment in all honesty to me. And

(16:24):
it's just kind of crazy that it's out there and
it's just cutting it.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
All all right.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
One other quick thing before we take a break, and
something else that I thought was kind of interesting too
as far as just weird things out there.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
There's a video game that's going to be made as a.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
Sort of follow up to a movie that's very famous
from a few years ago, not for being good, but
for being such a gross horror film that people got
sick and threw up in the cinema. They're now turning
that into a video game. Terror Fire is the name
of the movie, the name of the thriller, or whatever
you want to call it, just stupidity. And now there

(17:00):
will be a Terrifier, the arcade game, which will be
inspired by and helped to have as many gross moments
as the movie did. So hey, if you enjoyed getting
sick inside a movie theater at one point when this
movie was out, go ahead and enjoy it at home
while playing a video game and then cleaning up after yourself.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
That seems wrong. We don't need this, people. What is
the world becoming?

Speaker 9 (17:21):
All right?

Speaker 3 (17:21):
This is Creig Collins filling in on the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 13 (17:31):
A Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (17:56):
This is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
My name is Creig Collins, filling in to be with you.
A bunch of stuff out there in the world for
us to discuss. Poll numbers one of the bigger discussion
points as we get closer and closer to actually having
an election, actually having election day. Of course, also there's
a conversation about whether or not another guy showed up
outside of a Trump rally in California and wanted to
kill him. There was another guy with guns that shouldn't

(18:19):
have had guns that shouldn't have been in the area
that he was in. Although he claims to just be
a Trump supporter who had no intention of harming anybody,
I guess the bigger story about that is he's already
out of jail.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
Because if you.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Do have guns and the proximity of a president, but
you happen to live in California, darn it, you get
out of jail quite quickly. That feels like a valuable discussion.
But the poll numbers in the discussion about Trump gaining
on Harris and doing particularly well in certain voting blocks
is distressing for Democrats. It's actually hard for them to

(18:52):
even fathom. I think I have a few examples of
audio I'll play first, and then we'll get into one
other thing that's out there making the rounds that I
guess I am using to me at least. But here
is CNN talking about how in twenty sixteen Democrats had
a significant advantage not just for you know, certain voting blocks,
but overall more people when asked the question are you

(19:14):
a Democrat or Republican would say, oh, I'm a Democrat.
That number actually went up by twenty twenty and then
has completely disappeared by twenty twenty four, so much so
that names like Ronald Reagan are being mentioned by CNN
as comparables to the sentiment going into this election to
Donald Trump. There's nothing more significant than that statement by

(19:36):
an organization that does not want to say that out loud.

Speaker 3 (19:38):
Here we go, all right.

Speaker 11 (19:40):
So party id nationally, you go to October November of
twenty sixteen, Democrats had a three point advantage. You go
four years ago, Democrats had a six point advantage. Look
at where we are today, MANU Republicans with a one
point advantage. A very different picture, very much mirroring what
we see in the party registration numbers in those key
baller bound states and Sylvania in particular.

Speaker 16 (20:01):
And it actually just shows you too, why Harris is
taking doing what she's trying to do. He's trying to
moderate a little bit on these issues, trying to reach
those very voters because the product registration is changing and
the demographics of the voters are changing, those are the
people seem to subtract.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
I love that that's the answer too.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
After you say the pull numbers seem to scream out
loud that more people are dissatisfied with Democrats than have
been in a long time. And then the response from
CNNA is and she's trying to do a better job
of communicating the message. He's not changing it at all.
There's nothing more arrogant, you know, in all honesty, there's
nothing more elite in the.

Speaker 3 (20:35):
World of our political structures.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
And you know there's a bunch of elite politicians out
there who basically behave as though they're the haves and
we're all the have nots. Then refusing to change your
message and just thinking it's not getting to enough people
or it's not clearly defined enough, but you don't need
to actually respond to their dislike of the things you're doing.
Kamala Harris, as I said, went on the view and
said she changed nothing about some of the most significant

(20:59):
issues in America and have with this administration, whether it's
about the border, about the economy, all the things that
are struggle to most everyday people.

Speaker 3 (21:08):
Harris doesn't want to change that stuff.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
But to also say, you know what the big issue is,
we just got to talk more. We just got to
get you to understand how we're as great as we
say who we are, we don't actually have to change.

Speaker 3 (21:20):
It's almost like a delusional boss.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
I don't know another way to equate it, someone who
keeps telling you that, don't worry, the company's about to rebound.
As you're watching the thing sink further and further into
a bad place. And they're not changing anything. They're not
trying to react to whatever the public is telling them.
All right, I have one more comparison, and then I'll
stop comparing it and I'll just move on to the
next thing. One of my favorite sentences ever said by

(21:45):
a comedian, I think was Jerry Seinfeld, who said it's weird.

Speaker 3 (21:48):
I don't know who to credit it to, but it's
one of my favorites.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
It's about how the audience itself is a genius. I
think actually Seinfeld was repeating it and someone else had
said it. But nonetheless, the genius will tell tell you
what isn't isn't funny because the laugh, and you'll decide
if something is or isn't funny based on how much
laughter you get. And sure, if you perform in one
part of the country versus another, part. There might be
some things that are funny or some places than they

(22:12):
are other places. But if you get dead silence in
a room, your joke probably isn't good.

Speaker 3 (22:16):
It's probably not funny. You probably shouldn't try to make
it again.

Speaker 2 (22:19):
This also feels like it's true for the American people
when they resoundingly say these certain political decisions are ones
we really don't like. We're very clear about that. We're
not very involved in day to day political things. But
when a large group of our country says I'm unhappy
with this, you think the reaction would be, all right,
we'll change, we'll do something different. You can buy or

(22:42):
support or buy your opinion. But no, this version of politics,
at least on the left, is saying we're changing nothing
and you better just get used to it.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
Here's another example of that.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
Actually, this was a discussion on ABC over the weekend,
the Powerhouse round Table, talking about how men are now
leaning toward Trump more so than ever. This is across
all demographics, black men, young men, men in general. I
seem to think that voting with Democrats is bad for them. Oh,

(23:11):
probably because Democrats have blamed men for a bunch of
the challenges we face in our society vilified them, and
specifically white guys.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
You're allowed to say that you hate them.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
That's something that society, or at least democratic versions of
it say, is fine. You can't say anything else about
a specific race or sex with somebody, but if it's
a white dude, hey, you're allowed to hate them. Shocking
that white men might not be voting for Democrats after
hearing that rhetoric.

Speaker 3 (23:35):
Here we go.

Speaker 17 (23:36):
I mean, the reality is is that for the first
time in thirty two years, in this poll, it shows
that Republicans are beating Democrats straight up when you ask
people a generic ballot in thirty two years. It shows
that Donald Trump's doing better with black voters, Hispanic voters.

Speaker 9 (23:52):
Off the charts.

Speaker 17 (23:53):
But what the most important thing is what happened last
week is that what was working with female voters with
a Mala Harris was that there was some feeling of joy
in the air.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
Well that joy is gone.

Speaker 9 (24:05):
She had a terrible week.

Speaker 17 (24:06):
She picked a pointless fight with Rond de Santis. She
was losing in the sun Belt, and she tried to
recover by going on the View, which a.

Speaker 3 (24:14):
Lot of women watch.

Speaker 9 (24:15):
She went on the View.

Speaker 17 (24:16):
You talked about it earlier, and she wanted to clarify
the two most important issues that are facing these two candidates,
the economy and immigration. And she bombed like Rory at
the US Open and she went out there and said
there was nothing she would do that would be different
than Joe Biden. And she created a campaign commercial for

(24:39):
Donald Trump, and yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
She did.

Speaker 2 (24:41):
It's very easy. I'm not going to change anything. You
guys are unhappy. But what I'd like to do is
more of the same. I'd like to change nothing, do
nothing different. And I don't know why people don't love
that message, why they don't love that narrative. All Right,
Another thing out there that I thought was kind of interesting.
This is speaker Johnson. He was on Meet the Press.
Kristin wealth I was doing this interview and he got

(25:02):
very frustrated as she was trying at the tail end
of it to hyper focus on something that Johnson thinks
no one cares about, especially this late you know, it's
it's middle of October. We're barreling toward everybody actually casting
their votes in the election if you haven't done it
by mail or ready. And so because of that, it
feels like the wrong time to try to say that

(25:24):
Trump is hiding something.

Speaker 3 (25:26):
He's hiding something important and the American people want answers.
But here we go.

Speaker 18 (25:30):
You have to have a commander in chief that our
allies respect and our enemies fear. They do not fear,
They do fear Donald mister speak.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
Just be very clear.

Speaker 19 (25:39):
He hasn't released all of his medical records.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
He's at least two letters.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
Should he release the results.

Speaker 18 (25:44):
Of the He's on display every minute, so it's unnecessary.

Speaker 20 (25:48):
You can see that he didn't release his medical records.

Speaker 19 (25:51):
You don't want to know things like his cholesterol level,
whether he's dealing with any issue that we may not
know about.

Speaker 7 (25:56):
If he's going to be commander in chief, and he
also said he.

Speaker 19 (25:58):
Would relief cognitive Listen to your questions, should he release
that the American people, Christen, The American people don't care
about the cholesterol level of Donald Trump.

Speaker 18 (26:09):
They do about the cost of living and the fact
they cannot pay for groceries.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
Because it's amazing. Hold on, i' let them.

Speaker 18 (26:15):
Finish Kamala Harrison, Joe Biden's policies. They put them in
that situation. The medical records are irrelevant.

Speaker 9 (26:21):
Let's talk about that.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
You know what's interesting to hear a lot of mainstream
media say, or at least this part of mainstream media say,
that we're missing information about the health of Donald Trump
and we need more of that data, when they were
actually actively denying that Joe Biden was a shell of
his former self walking around the White House, and it
took a debate against Trump that Trump resoundingly won for

(26:44):
anyone in media to admit a thing that had been
going on for years and people had seen for years.
They did not demand more information, more clarity. You know
my favorite I hate this. This is an annoying thing
that happens all the time in political arguments. But I
can't help myself. My brain bounces to something else. My
favorite thing to reference to any sort of buddy of

(27:07):
mine that I have that votes on the other side
of the aisle, And yes I have friends the vote
opposite of me, and yes we can retain our friendships.

Speaker 3 (27:13):
It's amazing.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
But it is to point out that when the decision
was made to not go after Biden for his whoops
of daisy, I took a whole bunch of classified documents too,
mostly when I wasn't even because he was not at
that time the president of the United States, so he
had no right to these documents as vice president or
anyone else to take them anywhere, much less his own
personal home.

Speaker 3 (27:35):
But what I think was so funny about that is all.

Speaker 2 (27:37):
Of the reporting said that the interviews with Biden demonstrated
to those looking into potentially charging him that he would
be a sympathetic figure to a jury because he wasn't
mentally capable. And media went crazy with that, at least
legacy or left leaning media did, saying how it was
obviously politically motivated, and Biden's team said it was motivated

(27:59):
politically even though the people who wrote it were not
as biased as you wanted us to believe. And then
you fast forward a year from that or six months
whatever it was from that, and Biden craps himself.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
Well, essentially, it does very poorly on the debate stage.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
I feel like that's not something I should say because
some people might think it actually occurred. Who knows, I'm kidding,
But anyway, he does such a bad job on the
debate stage that finally people admit it. That should have
been the moment a year before the presidential debate where
people said all right, I accept that Biden might not
mentally be where he needs to be to be our
president if they're saying the only reason they're not going

(28:36):
to try him for having classified documents is that he'd
be a sympathetic figure to a jury.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
But that wasn't enough.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
And then you go and you ask Speaker Johnson if
Trump is hiding something with his cholesterol levels.

Speaker 3 (28:47):
It is. It's hilarious. It truly is.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
Like it's mind numbing in a way to me that
you feel like there's nothing else you could even say
to convince people of how ridiculous it is. By the way,
I'm not going to play the video because as far
as audio goes, it's not really all that valuable. But
one more thing before I take a break here, Michigan
Governor Gretchen Whitmer is feeding dorito's to left wing influencers

(29:13):
and social media sort of. I guess a joke somehow
to some of what the influencers talk about or do
on their pages. But it's one of the weirder videos
you could see today. It's a person kneeling being fed
at dorito by a hand and the rest of the
body is off camera for a second and then the
camera pans and it's Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer. I hate

(29:35):
the what about is them sometimes because they're just so easy,
But this is one of the best ones ever. If
this video were any male politician feeding a woman kneeling
on the ground at Dorito and then panning to the person,
the amount of discussion about it today would be incredible.
But for Gretchen Whitmer, it's just talked about as weird
or strange or odd. Truthfully, the weirdest thing we've seen

(29:58):
in the world of politics, definitely more so than anything
that was lobbed at Vance or Trump or anyone else.
This is just straight up well uncomfortable. I wanted to
use other words, I shouldn't. I'll take a break A
lot coming up. Craig Collins filling in on the Chad
Benson Show.

Serving up talk radio medium, rare and dripping with irony.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
It's Chad Beenson.

Speaker 3 (31:27):
This is the Chad Benson Schelle.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
My name is Greg Collins, filling in, thrilled to be
with you a whole bunch of stuff to talk about.
Let's do this for first. Is AI about to replace
your pets? That's what one company is asking as far
as the question goes also online, I think Mashable and
a couple other places are asking it. The name of
the company is Cassio, and they've released a brand new

(31:50):
AI they call Moflin, which is an AI version of
a pat It's kind of like a dog. It costs
four hundred bucks. I think you can order it in
j Pan right now.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
But the question is being asked out there.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
Would you prefer an electronic animal to an actual animal?
And the answer is no, or at least it should
be no, because they're soulless. A dog loves you for real.
An electronic fake dog, a computer dog doesn't love you
for real. It doesn't even know how to love anything
at all, and if it ever becomes sentient, it's gonna
actually hate you.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
I can't get over this, though.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
There's people out there that think that slowly but surely,
we're gonna migrate to, you know, AI versions of pets
because we don't have to clean up after them or
any of that other stuff, and you don't have to
feed them, and you could just turn the thing off
if you want to go on a vacation for a
week or so, and none of that actually is rewarding.

Speaker 3 (32:44):
It's just weird.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
I've never been around anyone that has anything like this,
but even like a robot thing, whenever anybody shows you
one or talks about them online or anywhere, I don't
think I've ever actually seen one in person. I was
just trying to think if I have the answers no
time they show it off online we're at like the
electronic expos and whatnot. It just makes me uncomfortable. No

(33:06):
part of it makes me happy. The Megan Fox movie
out there also is something that people might be paying
attention to. I doubt it's because you actually want that
version of a robot to go after you and your
family at some point. I'm not going to comment and
anything else about the Megan Fox movie. I just think
this is weird and odd. But there are people actually
asking the question, would you prefer electronic animals to real ones?

(33:30):
Only lazy people or people that don't care about you know,
souls do that. That's not me, It's a hot take.
At the end there, Bath and body Works is no
longer selling an offensive candle.

Speaker 3 (33:40):
According to them, Apparently.

Speaker 2 (33:43):
Bath and body Works was supposed to have artwork featuring
a paper snowflake, but some people thought it looked too
much like a KKK hood, so they said they needed
it to go away. The company said it was unintentional.
They didn't mean to promote the klucux Klan, at least
according to agen to people online, and so they've removed it.

(34:03):
There's something really interesting about it. I'll tell you this.
If you haven't seen the photo, and I know this
is the radio, so I can't show you, you can
go on online and check it out. It does look
odd the way that the snowflake is cut off, so
you only see half of it. You don't see the
entire thing, and it looks the way maybe a person
would make a paper snowflake. But because of the image itself,

(34:25):
it does kind of look like somebody is wearing something
over their face and body, and then there's little eye
holes cut out.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
But I don't know.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
I mean, obviously, if they didn't intend for this to
look KKK like, it's a little weird to be offended
and angry about it if it wasn't intentional. But nonetheless,
if you see the photo, you might at least understand
the controversy. But I love the fact that Bedbath and
Beyond removed it and apologized for the offensive thing, that
it didn't intend it all to be offensive, and no
one created for it to be that way. The thing

(34:55):
that's always my problem with this stuff is the individuals
who wake up in the morning and desire to be
a offended and desire to go viral being offended by
something that wind up being.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
The people who prop up these stories in the first place.

Speaker 2 (35:07):
I think those are the people that I most don't
understand is how you can't give anybody any grace or
any benefit of the doubt in any situation whatsoever. Although
I don't feel all that bad for Bed Bath and Beyond,
I guess, but yes, they remove the candle, the world
as we know it is better. You're in your safe
space now. Everything will be hunky dory, moving.

Speaker 3 (35:25):
On, all right. This is Craig Collins filling in on
the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
More coming up in a bit, And by a bit,
I mean right now, baby, I mean we're going to
do this right now. Beyond just the offensive candle out
there in the world, the top trending Halloween costumes apparently
include many quote unquote offensive things out of a whole
lot of Americans, which I also find hilarious. The thing

(35:49):
not offensive, though, out of all these costumes I'm not
even going to run through the list, is how everything
is fluty, everything is dirty, that doesn't offend anyone.

Speaker 3 (35:57):
We're all very pro that this time of year'll be fine.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
Even a you know, a slutty version of an ozempic
shot is fine with all of us.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
Craig Collins filling in on the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:12):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
This is the Chad Benson Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in.

Speaker 3 (36:48):
Thrilled to be with you. A bunch of stuff to
talk about out there in the world.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
Probably one of the funnier things that's out there is
Tim Walls going hunting.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
This is real. I can play this audio for you.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
It's not going to be as good as the video
because Tim Walls is struggling to load his shotgun the
entire time that he's on camera, trying to, you know,
go hunting with his friends or whoever these people are
that we're paid.

Speaker 3 (37:12):
To do this.

Speaker 2 (37:13):
There's also a video cut of him that I think
he posted on social media that makes it look like
he took a shot even though he didn't. He pointed
his gun a couple times, didn't actually fire, and somebody
in his group shot a pheasant and he was like, oh,
good shot to that guy.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
But he didn't even take a single shot.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
But the thing that's maybe more important than anything before
I hit play on this audio is this is a
man who lied about so many different things, as far
as whether or not he was deployed while he was
serving International Guard, which he was not, that he carried
his weapon in places of war, which he did not.
Of course, lie after lie Tianeman Square is a whole

(37:51):
nother lie that media is actually willing to discuss. But
here I'll just play the audio of him struggling to
load the gun, because this is the guy that wants
you to think that he cares as much about your
Second Amendment rights as anybody else does, even though he
also actively.

Speaker 3 (38:04):
Campaigns about taking guns away. It's sort of strange.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
And then actually, one last thing I'll point out, but
here I'll hit this first, and it never fits quite.

Speaker 22 (38:13):
Right, never fits quite right.

Speaker 9 (38:15):
You're just not quite right. How do you give him that.

Speaker 3 (38:19):
What coming down is, this was Aretta four hundred I brought.

Speaker 9 (38:23):
I bought it when I was shooting.

Speaker 3 (38:24):
At gloaded, still not loaded.

Speaker 11 (38:26):
Because it has a kind of their patenting a kickoff,
so when you get old.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
You got a kickoff, or when you get old so
you can hold it a little bit easier. And by
the way, people are actually virally discussing the thousands of
dollars that gun would cost, including the kickoff, which is.

Speaker 3 (38:41):
An add on to it.

Speaker 2 (38:43):
So thousands and thousands of bucks spent on a shotgun
that he can take a pheasant hunting and then not
actually shoot anything, which is sort of interesting. But again
it probably went viral mostly because he couldn't figure out
how to load the weapon. That's a bad look, especially
for somebody who served in our military and then yeah,
lied about some a said military service. I'm not trying

(39:03):
to shame anybody who does or doesn't see combat within
our military. You sign up and you say yes, you
put your name on the dotted line. I will give
my life to defend this country if called upon to
do it. I understand the pushback to the idea that
someone is criticizing that, but people aren't. At least the
people in political circles that are going after Tim Walls

(39:25):
aren't criticizing him for being willing to give his life
to the country. It's the claim that he actually was
asked to do it when he himself was not asked
to do it, that would make a whole lot of
veterans very mad, and just a whole lot of Americans
should be mad about it.

Speaker 3 (39:38):
All right.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
As we talk about that, there's some other things out
there that seem interesting. Kamala is now testing out a
brand new talking point about President Trump and how he
claims Trump. She claims Trump is being hidden away from
the public, even though he's still doing a whole bunch
of campaign and you know, rally appearances, and he's going

(40:00):
to be on Joe Rogan's podcast sometime in the near future.
But now Harris is pretending as though he's exactly what
Biden was four years ago, a guy who's campaigning from
his basement.

Speaker 3 (40:11):
This is amazing. Here's the audio first, and then I'll
keep reacting.

Speaker 7 (40:14):
Here's the thing.

Speaker 18 (40:16):
Here's the thing.

Speaker 7 (40:17):
It makes you wonder. It makes you wonder, why does
his saf want him to hide away?

Speaker 3 (40:25):
Huh?

Speaker 23 (40:29):
One must question one must question, are they afraid that
people will.

Speaker 8 (40:34):
See that he is too weak and unstable?

Speaker 2 (40:38):
Okay, and I'll stop right there, and sorry, the audio
is not perfect there. I couldn't fix that any better
than I did. But here's the thing that's amazing to me,
and it happens all the time, and the typical reaction
to that is to say she's a hypocrite, to say
that this was along the accusation of a President Biden
that his brain was broken and they were hiding him
even after he got into the office. Kamala Harris would

(40:58):
have actively been behind and preventing people from seeing and
talking to and hearing from the President of the United
States because she knew it wouldn't go well if he
were in a public place. But then they go ahead
and accuse Democrats or excuse me Republicans of doing it
because they think, I guess it'll be virally covered. It's
not happening, but nonetheless they're saying it is. But the

(41:19):
thing that matters more to me is how they understand
the logic of the right, or the logic of who
they say the conspiracy theorists are. Because for a while
there anyone who was saying, especially early on in the
presidency of Joe Biden, that he might not mentally be
in good condition anymore. Well, you were told that was
a big sack of crap, and you were a horrible

(41:39):
person for saying it. And it's the delusion or the
conspiracy theorists of the right, who are the ones that
are putting all this stuff out there in the first place.
It is amazing for them to disregard the sentiment the
way they do and not just be hypocrites, but demonstrate
that they get why someone would think or believe that
and why it was actually occurring. It's just the kind

(42:02):
of thing that should break your brain, or at least
it broke my brain, and tell you how full of
crap the side of the aisle is that wants to
tell you that they're the better people, they're the good guys,
and you have to trust them, and you can't trust
the other side. It's it's I don't know, I don't
know how to better say that, but it honestly is
also demonstrating to a lot of Americans why so many

(42:23):
are willing to punch a ticket on the side of
the aisle that they've never voted for before, because there
are a lot of people now that are saying, yeah,
you know what, I'll give out, I'll give my shot
and go ahead and say I'll punch this ticket for Trump,
especially a younger voter's saying that because darn it, everything
that's been a policy of the left and a promise
from the left has not worked out.

Speaker 3 (42:42):
I wanted to play this audio too.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
This is SNL actively making fun of Kamala Harris and
the word salad answer she gives the stuff right after
sixty minutes, actually edited one of her answers to remove
all the word salad stuff and make her seem like
someone who's.

Speaker 3 (42:56):
More eloquent than she actually is. This is interesting to me.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
This is an acknowledgment that the truth is too loud
and we can't possibly try to reshape it at this point,
this close to an election, because SNL has not done
this to an active political on the left candidate for
quite some time. But they are at least taking a
couple shots at Harris after taking more valuable shots at Biden. Again,

(43:22):
someone that they would have claimed and everyone else would
have claimed was mentally just fine up until it was
absolutely evident to everyone that he wasn't because he was
destroyed in a debate against Trump.

Speaker 6 (43:31):
Here we go, Okay, one hundred people servey top six's
answers on the board. Name something that you're keeping your
glove compartment?

Speaker 9 (43:37):
OVP. Harris, Steve.

Speaker 7 (43:39):
Look, I was raised in a middle class family.

Speaker 9 (43:43):
All right, Oh, here we go.

Speaker 7 (43:45):
Okay.

Speaker 8 (43:45):
My mother raised my sister and me, all right, she
worked hard and saved up.

Speaker 7 (43:51):
Yeah, and we had a second mother too.

Speaker 9 (43:53):
Okay, did that mother have a glove compartment?

Speaker 7 (43:56):
A small business owner named miss Shelton?

Speaker 6 (43:59):
Okay, we got that something that you keep in your
local apartment O A glock?

Speaker 7 (44:03):
See if a big old clock.

Speaker 2 (44:06):
I guess you'd have to see if she could load
the glock the same way that walls can't load a weapon. Although,
to be fair to Harris, she didn't actually serve in
any branch of our military, so it's even more embarrassing
when Tim Wall's doing that. But those are good jokes
about Harris, about her need to start every sentence with
I was raised in the middle class family. I've long
not been a part of that middle class anymore. I'm

(44:28):
part of the political elite, part of you know, the
group in DC that just has way, way more than
so many others have, and don't understand the challenges that
you face that you're claiming, you know that don't even
exist there And honestly, another part of the rhetoricas that
these these issues aren't even real, which is amazing, but

(44:49):
nonetheless actually demonstration of a willingness to go after both sides,
which is refreshing.

Speaker 3 (44:55):
We don't have that, and SNL is at its best
when it does that. All right, let's do this.

Speaker 2 (44:58):
This is the other piece of audio I truly loved
that I thought was interesting. This is jd Vance once
again dealing with media and counteracting some of the things
that they're trying to do. It's something that he's uniquely
good at and was showing he was good at months
before his debate against him Walls. He can push back

(45:19):
without seeming like an absolute jerk, and doing it even
though media kept telling you he's a big giant jerk
who hates you know, all kinds of people.

Speaker 3 (45:27):
I guess, but here we go.

Speaker 4 (45:29):
The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment CONFLICTX
apartment complexes, and the mayor said, our dedicated police officers
have acted on those concerns a handful of problems.

Speaker 5 (45:43):
Only, Martha, do you hear yourself? Only a handful of
apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs,
and Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris's
open border. Americans are so fed up with what's going on,
and they have every right to be. I really find
this exchange, Martha is sort of interesting because you seem

(46:04):
to be more focused with nitpicking everything that Donald Trump
has said, rather than acknowledging that apartment complexes in the
United States of America are being taken over by violent gangs.

Speaker 3 (46:17):
That's usually thought of his bat It's usually not a
good thing.

Speaker 2 (46:19):
If that's happening anywhere in the United States, we would say, hey,
we need this to stop. We need to figure out
why this is going on. Not it's okay if there's
just a little bit, there's not a whole lot. There's
just some of it. That'll be fine. That's something we
can ignore. That's another strange thing that's out there in
the world in a strange discussion as well. All right,
one last thing, you know what, I'll throw this out
there too. I do think that Harris is a uniquely

(46:43):
bad at any sort of version of trying to be
intimidating or even the like the glock comet. It's sort
of funny that Snel made fun of it. I know
that this one piece of audio went viral because people
were saying, Kim Jong un will attack us because of
how little he'll be afraid of Kamala Harris. Here is

(47:04):
this piece of audio. Two.

Speaker 7 (47:11):
It is good to me.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
She throws on different accents, different versions of speak, depending
on where she is and how she is, So I
find that funny too. But they're saying, at least some
who are putting that viral all over the internet, that
this will cause even more aggression toward us because of
the fakeness and the lack of lack of believing that
anything could be authentically said from this human being. That's

(47:37):
a unique version of the same discussion you've had before
of saying, you know what, this is the reason where
at risk, or this is the reason that you know
something could potentially happen. It's not just that they're not
strong enough, but they're also incapable of telling the truth.
All right, on that note, we'll take a break. We'll
come back with some sillier things, I promise in just
a little bit, including probably a discuss about the guy

(48:01):
on Reddit who went viral for complaining about his wife.
But that and more coming up. Craig Collins filling in
on the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 15 (48:07):
This portion of the show. It's brought to you actually
by Better Help.

Speaker 14 (48:09):
It's that spooky time of the year, all of us, you, me, everybody,
we've got, you know, some things we're a little scared of.
Nothing wrong with that, and sometimes seeing somebody and talking
about that is a good thing for me.

Speaker 15 (48:24):
You know, it's interesting.

Speaker 14 (48:25):
I was never afraid of flying until I had kids
and I talked somebody about I'm like, what's the deal,
And they explained to me, look, you know, it's a
different world now that you have children. They set it
up in a way where, oh my god, this is this.
I see why this is. I see what happens. All
of us have fears in something, and if you've thought about, hey,
I'd like to overcome some of these fear.

Speaker 15 (48:46):
What's holding you back? What is it? Why don't you
do this? Go see a therapist. It's a great way

Irreverence Like, yeah, so what it's the Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (49:45):
This is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (49:47):
My name is Craig Collins, filling in, Thrilled to be
with you. A bunch of stuff out there to discuss.
Disney offered hurricane peanut butter and jelly sandwiches out to
people that were stranded in its park in Florida last
week during Hurricane Milton. A lot of people are reacting
online to this because the hurricane pack cost ten dollars.

(50:08):
It did include an entire loaf of bread, full jars
of peanut butter, and jelly, utensils, all kinds of other things,
so people were actually saying it's a good deal, and
genuinely speaking, as odd as it sounds, the cost of
the items probably is higher than the ten bucks Disney
is charging for it, but that's still got to feel
strange to be at Disney, to be deciding to deal
with a hurricane while staying at a theme park. It's

(50:31):
a weird move in and of itself, and then to
be offered something that's going to help you if everything
is shut down, you can't even get food, and it
still cost you ten bucks. It should have been free,
is what some people were saying.

Speaker 3 (50:43):
That is true.

Speaker 2 (50:44):
However, if Disney were still offering these for sale for people,
even if you don't get a ticket to the theme park,
they would crush because it's cheaper than most places. One
person on social media said, you can't buy this at
any location in Florida for ten dollars with the amount
of items in there.

Speaker 3 (50:58):
I find both sides of that sad and hilarious.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
I don't know why, but I find it both interesting
and amusing and then also well awful. Another thing that
I saw these are a couple news stories in the
world of working.

Speaker 3 (51:12):
A one.

Speaker 2 (51:12):
There's a brand new term young people are using for
when you're mentally stressed out at work and unhappy but
pretending to be happy. For some of us, that's just
called working. I'm sorry, couldn't help that joke.

Speaker 3 (51:24):
For them. Glossing is what young people say.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
It's when you're glossing over all of the negatives to
pretend is though things are great at your work. Seventy
eight percent of workers say that they believe that their
work environment is actually toxic, which I find interesting because
I think a whole lot of people have the wrong
expectation for what a job is and how friendly you're
going to be with your coworkers. Yes, you want to
be friends. Yes, it's great to have friends that you've

(51:47):
worked with. It's not actually a requirement. And everywhere you
go you might not like everyone around you, but darn it,
you can figure out a way to work with them
and be professional if not friendly.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
That's my own advice for this, but I find this hilarious.

Speaker 2 (51:58):
Glossing is the term of people not quitting their job
but being unhappy with it and thinking the boss doesn't
take their feelings of mental health seriously enough, which I
don't even know what to say anymore. But all right,
that is just one of several topics we'll get to
maybe more throughout the show today. Craig Collins filling in
on the Chad Benson Show. Back with you in just

(52:19):
a bit, And by just a bit, I literally mean
right now. Let's do a little bit more right now.
One other thing I found in the world of working
that I thought was equally as funny as people saying
that they're unhappy mentally in the workplace, but they got
a gloss over it is gen Z also bringing their
parents to job interviews. Gen Z is letting their parents
fill out applications for them, and now apparently also planning

(52:42):
on bringing mom and dad with if they fill out
applications for a job that they wind up getting a
response from. This story has been out there before, people
have said it's a quote unorthodox approach, but gen Z
is even asking some employers if you can bring mom
and dad along, say no, please? By all that is
is right in the world. If you're an employer thinking

(53:02):
about hiring someone and you know, for a matter of like,
you know fact that if they're gonna bring their parents
along for the interview, there's no way they're getting the job.
Just tell them no, just don't allow it to happen.
But apparently some people are doing this, and some versions
of quote hustle culture involve applying for so many jobs,

(53:23):
or at least claiming that you're applying for so many
jobs that mom and dad.

Speaker 3 (53:26):
Have to pitch in and help and apply for jobs too.
It's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
One of the big most important aspects of a gig
to a younger person. I'm a millennial, by the way,
so this is self hate. This is me criticizing my
own and gen z as well. But one of the
things most important is a healthy work life balance, meaning
you're not required to do more than what you want
to do at work. You know what you could also do,
Just not do that stuff, and if you get fired

(53:51):
for it, darn it, that's your fault.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
But find another job that way too.

Speaker 2 (53:54):
Creig Collins feeling on The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (54:08):
Su Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (54:34):
This is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (54:36):
My name is Craig Collins filling in, thrilled to be
with you, a bunch of stuff to talk about.

Speaker 3 (54:41):
Chad is back tomorrow. I thought this was interesting.

Speaker 2 (54:44):
Alejandro Majorcas went on faced the nation and had a
conversation about how there's no facts, it's all conspiracy theories
behind the claims that this administration is willingly flooding the
US with people who are here illegally because they hope
for the the voting to change.

Speaker 3 (55:02):
In certain places, certain parts of our country.

Speaker 2 (55:04):
They hope that these legal immigrants wind up with the
ability to cast a ballot for them. Essentially, obviously what
many people think. First, let's hear what majork has said
about this terrible, horrible conspiracy theory, and then while I
have some other thoughts.

Speaker 20 (55:18):
You have a big portfolio at homeland security, and of
course the US border is part of that. Border crossings
are now at a low for the Biden presidency, but
our CBS polling shows sixty five percent of Trump voters
believe the Biden administration is trying to intentionally increase the
number of migrants at the border, and among the people

(55:39):
who do believe that, three quarters of them say it's
because the administration wants them to vote, And the Speaker
of the House just told us that he thinks non
citizens are going to vote, even though this is already
illegal under established law.

Speaker 3 (55:54):
Hold on, hold on, I love this question so much.

Speaker 13 (55:56):
It's illegal.

Speaker 3 (55:57):
No one's going to do it.

Speaker 2 (55:58):
Not the people who came into the country I legally,
since they also broke something that they're not supposed to
do by being here in the first place. They're not
going to do that again. They wouldn't disregard whether or
not something is legal and go ahead and cast a
ballot and see if they get caught.

Speaker 3 (56:11):
No way, that's insane.

Speaker 20 (56:12):
What mechanisms can you tell the public about that exists
to prevent this from happening?

Speaker 3 (56:17):
Yes? Or please?

Speaker 24 (56:18):
What a powerful example of disinformation. There is no facts
underlying these assertions. They are extremely damaging. It causes people
to lose confidence in the integrity of the election system,
and we need people in positions of authority to actually
communicate accurate information to the voting public. We are the

(56:39):
numbers that we are experiencing now at the border are
actually lower than they were at this time of year
in twenty nineteen.

Speaker 2 (56:46):
I gotta sell it right there. My favorite, as far
as that goes and JD. Vance took a shot at
this during the Vice President's debate by saying that, well,
if you release an app, and if the app allows
someone to ask for permission to enter the United States
and say that they're going to claim asylum, the app
does not actually make you claim asylum, because that process
probably shouldn't be.

Speaker 3 (57:06):
Done in an app either.

Speaker 2 (57:08):
Then every day you release or you randomly allow a
handful of the people that are part of that to
come into our country, and you call that legal, even
though it's a very odd change to something that definitely
wouldn't have been illegal during the past administration. So you
artificially lower the numbers of people who are coming in illegally.
They're still coming in illegally, but there's a whole bunch
of people who are coming in with this weird version

(57:29):
of sort of legal status.

Speaker 3 (57:32):
We don't even know much about them. Still, we just
randomly let them in.

Speaker 2 (57:35):
There's no rhyme or reason, according to our own government
as to how we choose the people on that app
who are picked to come into the country.

Speaker 3 (57:43):
Each day. It just randomly selects some people and they're
allowed in. That's a real thing.

Speaker 2 (57:48):
Happening, but that has allowed this claim that numbers are
actually lower than they've been in the past, when they're
still coming across in high numbers. And then beyond that,
you also have people coming in with a brand new
version of quote unquote legal status.

Speaker 3 (58:00):
But continue, Sorry, I apologize.

Speaker 24 (58:02):
And so it's not just over the last three years,
but well before them, in the pre COVID times. And
the notion, the notion that we in law enforcement have
sought to intentionally allow individuals to cross the border illegally
for the purpose of voting is preposterous.

Speaker 2 (58:22):
Oh, it's preposterous. It's insane, it's ridiculous. Here, let's go
through some things that people would not argue with. I'm
not trying to go full conspiracy tinfoil hat or whatever
you think is conspiracy tinfoil hat, I guess. But first
and foremost, the democratic position is that we should not
mass deport people because it's bad.

Speaker 3 (58:40):
We shouldn't do it.

Speaker 2 (58:41):
In fact, people who are already in this country should
be given some sort of legal status. That's their position
is that we should give legal statuses out to individuals
who don't have it. Beyond that, places like California made
it illegal to check a voter's nationality before they vote,
not in general, but locally. If someone shows up somewhere,
you can't even ask them if they have a legal

(59:03):
status in order to vote. You gotta let them go
ahead and fire that off because that's racist, that's horrible,
that's terrible. In places like Alabama and Virginia, those states
are removing people who are here illegally and don't have
a right to vote from voter registration, which is weird
that they got on those places at all. But the
government is inept in so many ways. I look at

(59:24):
how much fraud happened after COVID, as far as COVID
response loans and whatnot goes. For the government to claim
that no one is registered to vote who cannot vote
and is registered illegally is insane. I know that you
try to remove votes that you find out are illegal
as they come in, but nonetheless, both these things are happening.
Democrats are trying to allow for people that don't have
legal status to have it, and they're allowing for places

(59:46):
to register illegal voters, and then they claim we'll catch
it later, don't you worry. By the way, the DOJ
is suing Alabama and Virginia for changing their rules to
try to prevent illegal immigrants from voting. They are not
suing California for changing its rules to make it illegal
for someone at a local precinct to question whether or
not someone has the right to vote in that place.

(01:00:07):
That's not something they're interested in going after it all. Granted,
I do believe, more so than many people who say
are on a certain side of a political aisle, that
voting can be done effectively and correctly, and that places
that are in charge of this can remove those that
don't have a right to vote, even if they showed
up and cast a ballot that they weren't allowed to cast.

(01:00:28):
I understand all those arguments, and I believe those things
could occur. But why not take the extra step of
preventing these things? Why not take the extra step of
making someone more capable of screening out people who shouldn't
be voting based on whatever information it is you're finding.

Speaker 3 (01:00:44):
And the only reason why not is racism, That's what
they say, like, Wow, it's racist.

Speaker 2 (01:00:47):
But if it actually would help and actually make things easier,
why not do any of that stuff and just see
if it's bad or good.

Speaker 3 (01:00:54):
You know what. I honestly, this is the best way
that I can say this.

Speaker 2 (01:00:56):
I know this sounds crazy or extreme to some people
out there, but I remember going into the twenty twenty
two midterm elections, how many people were claiming that was
what was happening in Georgia. Was Jim Crow two point out?
You remember hearing that. I remember hearing that, And at
the time I remember saying in a few different microphones
and places that.

Speaker 3 (01:01:16):
We should see what happens.

Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
We should actually look at the data at the trail
end of doing some of this stuff and see if
it actually impacts the amount of people of a certain
race of black people from voting in an election. And
by the way, in twenty twenty two, Georgia had a
record turnout and a record turnout of black voters. So
it did not do any of the stuff they were
saying it would do if you allowed local precincts to

(01:01:38):
do something to try to prevent people who don't have
a legal status from voting. And I don't mean you
look at somebodey and go you I don't think you
can vote, Tell me, prove to me you can vote.
But maybe something happens as you're looking something up in
the computer. I don't know, some version of that if
it occurred, Let's see if it actually winds up being
disproportionately applied, and if it winds up being a racist

(01:01:58):
and a whole bunch of the people who were accused
of not being allowed to vote definitely had the correct
ability to vote. Let's see if that occurs. Because by
and large, I like to trust the American people as
human beings, more so than our government seems to like
to trust the American people as human beings and get
you to actually like you use your brain when you
decide if something is true or not. These are all

(01:02:20):
things that they don't actually believe you're capable of, and
I believe you are capable of, but nonetheless as part
of the giant problem. But I just can't get over
that that the government would choose to go after states
that are trying to prevent people from voting illegally and
then claim at the same time, how dare you ever
say that to us?

Speaker 3 (01:02:37):
That's incredible and terrible and you're a horrible person. Honestly,
I wonder if we could do this.

Speaker 2 (01:02:43):
This is gonna sound terrible, but I'm gonna let it
come out of my brain, because why not. Darn it,
I'm just here for one day. Chad's back tomorrow. I
don't blame him for this, They'll blame me. I wonder
if you could walk into a room and say, hey,
before we get started, all the people in this room,
whatever the political idea is or the thing we're going
to discuss, I want to do one thing at the start.
I want to check at the door that any of

(01:03:03):
us are saying any of the things we're saying.

Speaker 3 (01:03:05):
Because we're a racist, to sexist, to all the ists.

Speaker 2 (01:03:08):
Let's not accuse each other of that. Let's give each
other the benefit of the doubt for a twenty minute conversation,
and let's see if we get any further on the
issues we agree with or disagree with each other on.
Then if we would just immediately jump to well, that
sounds racist to me, that sounds sexist to me, let's
give that its opportunity later to be discussed and just
see how we do. Because I think a lot of

(01:03:30):
us would get much further in a discussion with other
people if you didn't start to accuse someone of thinking
something for a specific reason and instead try to listen
to the thought itself and if it has merit, and
then object to whatever you think is not.

Speaker 3 (01:03:44):
Valuable about it, and go back and forth.

Speaker 2 (01:03:46):
That way actually debate the ideas without saying the ideas
are so terrible that we can't even discuss them, which
essentially is the comment all the time in the world
in which we live. All Right, another thing that I
saw out there that I can't get over. And yes,
a lot of people are talking about this, but space
X is very good at stuff. Elon Musk is very
good at stuff. So they can land, they can fire

(01:04:11):
off rockets, they can do all kinds of things that
the rest of us can't seem or are not capable
of doing, or even our government isn't capable of doing anymore.
And so once again SpaceX is being praised for the
giant starship booster in the fifth test flight that went
viral all over the internet, a giant chopstick style historic

(01:04:34):
flight that people are calling it.

Speaker 3 (01:04:36):
There's video of it.

Speaker 2 (01:04:38):
It launched and landed off of a starship so off
of the ocean in the water, something that we hadn't
seen happen before. So people are are very you know, impressed,
And as this is being discussed. As people are are
dealing with the ethic the efficientness of say Elon Musk
and his companies, you're still trying to figure out a

(01:04:59):
way to crap a over the guy because he showed
up and appeared in a a rally with Donald Trump
and said certain things about Donald Trump and about free
speech and whatnot. I just find this amazing that some
of the things that they're struggling with, some of the
ability to say, tear someone apart, are things that they'd
normally be praising if it weren't this individual that was

(01:05:23):
capable of this, but anybody else, if Elon Musk has
success with any of his organizations that aren't Twitter, or
even if he has success with Twitter right now, the
odds of you or anyone else hearing about it are
tremendously low, or even hearing about anything in a positive
way or tremendously low.

Speaker 3 (01:05:38):
But if he does even a little bit of stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:05:40):
That you think is inappropriate or mainstream media does, then
you'll hear about that. Like Elon Musk is as valuable
as anyone else in our political system, even though of
course he isn't. Although I did find this interesting, and
I think there were a couple of Democrats that even
agreed to this that Elon Musk has a unique pull
with young men.

Speaker 3 (01:05:58):
He does.

Speaker 2 (01:05:59):
You see it in the way in which he benefited
certain cryptocurrencies by talking about them, and then people would
flood into those markets. And so, at a time when
Democrats are really struggling with young voters, specifically young male voters,
misunderstanding the draw of Elon Musk is something that they're
doing at their own peril. And by the way, instead
of discussing that sort of stuff, you have the President

(01:06:20):
of the United States, Joe Biden, threatening anyone that thinks
that it's okay to criticize hurricane response efforts by the
federal government, which have not been good.

Speaker 3 (01:06:30):
I have that audio just real quick before we take
a break.

Speaker 2 (01:06:33):
I think those who have been spreading these lives to
try to undermine the opposition are going to pay a
price for us.

Speaker 3 (01:06:41):
I think they're going to pay a price.

Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
Darn it again, I guess just to demonstrate the difference
between how stuff is covered, Elon Musk does good with
one of his companies not going to be in as
many newsplaces. Biden says something that sounds like a threat
to several Americans not going to be discussed much at all.
Trump says something even reminiscent of that, thought it would
be all over the news and discussed a whole lot
of places. I don't know why I find that a music.

(01:07:04):
It's just another what about is them that you can't
get over? But Joe President Biden seemed to be saying
that anyone who spreads this misinformation, you're going down. You're
going down hard. And then he forgot what he said
and probably walked out of the room. All right, we'll
take a break. A lot coming up. This is Greg

If you like talk radio like Chad Benson likes his meals,
you've come to the perfect place for takeout.

Speaker 2 (01:08:38):
This is the Chad Benson Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in, Thrilled to be with you. Chad is back tomorrow.
Let's see if you have interest in this air conditioned clothing.
Apparently that's the thing. Some fashion show somewhere in the world,
I think Paris Fashion Week specifically debuted this stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:08:54):
Other ones have showed it.

Speaker 2 (01:08:56):
Your clothing looks real, real, inflated, but apparently inside it
delicious cool air that makes you feel great if it's
hot outside.

Speaker 3 (01:09:04):
People think this might be a trend.

Speaker 2 (01:09:05):
That quote blows up, and I don't think they're trying
to make a joker upon there as they do it.
It's not exactly fashionable, is what others are saying. It
looks like you're just wearing a bunch of balloons throughout
your entire body. But I would sacrifice this for being
comfortable myself personally. There's two fans on the back of
the clothing that inflates it, and then somehow with some

(01:09:27):
sort of battery pack, turns it into icy, delicious cold
air that makes you feel great as you walk around.
I just can't you know what I think the problem
is with this stuff, I'll be honest, is the first
people that break through the glass ceiling, the glass ceiling
of air conditioned clothing, because once a few people are
wearing it, the whole rest of us will do it.

Speaker 3 (01:09:45):
It's like the heated.

Speaker 2 (01:09:46):
Clothing that people are now wearing more and more, the
jackets you got the battery pack in. You see that
every winter, picking up a little more in colder places.
Eventually the air conditioned clothing will also be a thing too.
You just can't be the first guy out of the
gate or the first twenty people out of the gate.

Speaker 3 (01:10:02):
Eventually, when we.

Speaker 2 (01:10:04):
All look like giant inflatable or stuffed animals, then it'll
be okay. Then it'll be normal and everything will be fine.
But that story definitely amused me quite a bit today.
Other things out there, all right, there's something I can't
I can't get over. So every once in a while
somebody's obituary, obituary will go viral, and it'll go viral

(01:10:24):
because the family decided that they wanted to amuse themselves
or that the person would have appreciated the jokes, so
they put this stuff in and then people talk about it.
I wonder, just genuinely, before I read anything from this
obituary of a guy named Adolph Boem, if you would
want this or not. I think I would want this.

(01:10:45):
I think I'd be fine if my family made enough
jokes that someone somewhere that doesn't know me at all
is talking about me passing away with some amount of entertainment. Yeah,
it's dark, sure, I'm talking about someone who's no longer
with us, but apparently this family thought that he really
love these kind of jokes.

Speaker 3 (01:11:03):
It starts out like this, Robert ATEOLFH.

Speaker 2 (01:11:06):
Bome, in accordance with his lifelong dedication to his own
personal brand of decorum, muttered his last unintelligible and likely
unnecessary curse words on October sixth, twenty twenty four, shortly
before tipping backward over some stupid bleeping thing and hitting
his head on the floor. That's the way it starts
that the injury that eventually caused this guy who was

(01:11:29):
older to pass away was him actually cursing and.

Speaker 3 (01:11:33):
Being upset about stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
It also says that he complained about several different other
things leading into it, So I'll be brief. I won't
dive into all the details, but I just find this
very amusing. He's a Vietnam War veteran, of course, of
probably someone who can take something dark and turned it
into something genuinely funny. So really good stuff. But again,
I wonder if you're someone who'd like a silly viral

(01:11:56):
obituary to be out there in the world, because it's possible,
And the latest one is from Robert Adolph Baum. Quick
break coming up in just a bit. This is Craig
Collins filling in on the Chad Benson Show. Honestly, some
of the other stuff that's great about this though, the lack,
it says in the obituary of him being asked to
do certain things was probably the best part of his life.

(01:12:19):
He managed to blow up not one, but two holes
in the dash of his own car on two separate occasions,
which unfortunately did not even.

Speaker 3 (01:12:27):
Start to let alone surprise his wife.

Speaker 2 (01:12:30):
These are the kind of things in this obituary that
the man was a walking, interesting version of the human
and very proud of it. To conclude it in here,
all right, quick break, A lot more Craig Collins filling
in on the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:12:48):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:13:20):
This is the Chad Benson Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in. Thrilled to be with you. A bunch of
stuff to talk about. Today, of course, is Columbus Day.
Chad Benson is off, he'll be back tomorrow. Let's listen
to Trump and Kamala Harris talk about Columbus Day. They
have different approaches let's just call it that. First you

(01:13:40):
decide which approach you like more. Let's call this to
choose your own adventure.

Speaker 3 (01:13:43):
Here we go.

Speaker 25 (01:13:44):
His memory stands as an enduring testament to the daring
spirit that built our great civilization. And as long as
I have anything to say about this, and I hope
that's going to be a long time, it will always
be Columbus.

Speaker 23 (01:13:58):
Day, as we celebrate Indigenous People's Day, as we speak
truth about our nation's history. A Since nineteen thirty four,
every October, the United States has recognized the voyage of
the European explorers who first landed on the shores of

(01:14:20):
the Americas. But that is not the whole story. That
has never been the whole story. Okay, those explorers ushered
in a wave of devastation for tribal nations, perpetrating violence,
stealing land, and spreading disease. We must not shy away

(01:14:43):
from this shameful past.

Speaker 2 (01:14:46):
Mu's not shy away from this, the shameful, horrible, terrible past.
I wonder how she deals with the Fourth of July,
and if she talks about the violence that occurred during
the American Revolution.

Speaker 3 (01:14:55):
It was tough, it was difficult, it was a bad time.

Speaker 2 (01:14:58):
I have to be honest. There's no other way to
say this other than to say out loud that anywhere
in the world that is currently a managed society with
a group of people in it at one point was
probably taken over by some other group of people. Anywhere
you go, anywhere in the entire planet, there were times

(01:15:21):
when in order to take land, you fought people who
had the land, and then you took it.

Speaker 3 (01:15:25):
We don't do that.

Speaker 2 (01:15:26):
Anymore per se in a whole lot of the world,
but it did happen, and it's weird to continue to
judge things based on these standards of twenty twenty four,
as if you could apply them back then and then
have a day like this where you're celebrating. I mean,
that's a terrible party with her. It'd be terrible to
let her give a speech at somebody's wedding or something,

(01:15:46):
because you'd be like, you know, it wasn't always good
between these two people. Oftentimes they fought, and there was
almost a few cheating scandals. But I guess they made
it here, so I guess we're all going to be
happy about this now. It's just odd. By the way,
Harris is absolute entertained the idea of changing the name
from Columbus Day to Indigenous People's Day or something to
that effect.

Speaker 3 (01:16:06):
Here we go.

Speaker 23 (01:16:07):
So I'm wondering, would you support efforts on a federal level.

Speaker 1 (01:16:10):
To change Columbus Day to Indigenous People's Day?

Speaker 6 (01:16:13):
And why does that matter?

Speaker 13 (01:16:14):
Something?

Speaker 2 (01:16:15):
I should say that this is old. This is when
she actually did run for president. That means she lost
in primaries, not when she was installed as the candidate
after not having to run in a primary and running
for office, which is what she's doing now.

Speaker 23 (01:16:28):
Sure, sure, yeah. And why it matters is to your
very point.

Speaker 7 (01:16:36):
We have to remember.

Speaker 23 (01:16:37):
History, and this question I think really is connected to
the last question about.

Speaker 15 (01:16:44):
Our morals and our our.

Speaker 23 (01:16:47):
Compass and our goals right and our aspirations. We have
to remember our history. Uncomfortable to the point about truth.

Speaker 2 (01:17:00):
I love how there was one person in the audience
that was like whoa, and then they immediately realized they
can't be wooing because of what's being talked about.

Speaker 3 (01:17:08):
I don't know how to say this.

Speaker 2 (01:17:09):
I'll just say this one other way and then I'll
move on from this topic, because darn it, I have
no idea why it's discussed as much as it is.
If there was no exploration, and if this society was
never taken in any form that it was taken in,
we wouldn't be here right now. None of us would
be here, The United States wouldn't exist, none of that
would be a thing that exists at all. So have
whatever problems you have with the past, if you want

(01:17:32):
to have problems with the past, but realize that the
thing that we're celebrating is not necessarily any of that
stuff that used to exist in society when that was
what happened. But that, you know, what we're celebrating is
the fact that eventually we're here and the people who
are responsible in some way, shape or form for us
being here, including Christopher Columbus.

Speaker 3 (01:17:51):
It's just so odd to have this be a discussion
where you're like, but you know, what really happened.

Speaker 2 (01:17:56):
I feel like we could do that about anything, in
all honesty, there's anything that you could track it back
far enough to be like, yeah, but that wasn't good then.
That wasn't good then, So we can't celebrate it now
no matter how long it's been since the then part.

Speaker 3 (01:18:09):
All right, I want to move on.

Speaker 2 (01:18:11):
I pray Saturday Night Live for making jokes about Kamala Harris,
which they have been doing more of in the last
few weeks. I wonder if part of it is because
the jokes about Biden went well enough, They're like, all right,
let's try to keep swinging for the fences and see
if we can make some more jokes that people might
find entertaining. But I'll play a little bit of this.
This is a sketch where they're playing family feud. Of course,

(01:18:34):
Keenan Thompson is playing the Steve Harvey role in doing
the celebrity family feud. It's the Trump's versus the Harrises,
and this is the way they represent Kamala Harris on
Saturday Night Live.

Speaker 3 (01:18:45):
Over the weekend. This is good.

Speaker 2 (01:18:47):
More of this would be great, even if you're still
crapping on Trump as much as they are actually deciding
that there's stuff to make fun of from the left,
because we know there is is something that should be
the new norm, not necessary, the exception to the rule
that many people think some of this is going to be.

Speaker 3 (01:19:02):
But here we go, all right, lit play the game.

Speaker 9 (01:19:05):
Okay. One hundred people surveyed.

Speaker 6 (01:19:06):
Top six answers on the board name something that you're
keeping your glove compartment, O.

Speaker 9 (01:19:11):
VP Harris, Steve.

Speaker 7 (01:19:13):
Look, I was raised in a middle class family.

Speaker 9 (01:19:17):
All right, Oh, here are we going?

Speaker 7 (01:19:18):
Okay? My mother raised my sister and me. All right.

Speaker 8 (01:19:22):
She worked hard and saved up. And we had a
second mother too.

Speaker 9 (01:19:27):
Okay, did that mother have a global compartment?

Speaker 7 (01:19:30):
A small business owner named miss Shelton?

Speaker 6 (01:19:33):
Okay, we got that something that you keep in your
local apartment?

Speaker 9 (01:19:36):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (01:19:37):
A glock? See if a big old clock.

Speaker 2 (01:19:40):
Yes, she claimed to have a clock just the other
day when I actually asked an interview if she owned
a gun, which she said she did.

Speaker 3 (01:19:46):
What kind of gun was it? And she said it
was a glock.

Speaker 2 (01:19:49):
By the way, they even made fun of the first
gentleman or second gentleman. I'm trying to be the first gentleman,
I guess in his hand. Ser I thought this was funny,
not going to be played a lot of places.

Speaker 3 (01:19:58):
Here we go, name.

Speaker 9 (01:19:59):
Something that keep in your glove compartment.

Speaker 3 (01:20:01):
Oh wow, I mean I can't top that. It was
so perfect. I'll go with the same answer, Steve, a clock.

Speaker 6 (01:20:10):
Man, you want to give you the same answer? I
seemed like a bad strategy. But show me another bloom wicket.

Speaker 2 (01:20:19):
The second gun, by the way, was the number one
answer according to Saturday at Live. That's pretty funny. They
went on to, of course, also make fun of Biden.
So I won't play that.

Speaker 3 (01:20:27):
Clip too, because it's good.

Speaker 2 (01:20:29):
This is good, and they should have been doing more
of this years ago when Biden was getting lost while
trying to walk off stages, something they're now finally willing
to admit over the last few weeks.

Speaker 13 (01:20:39):
I like to buy a vow.

Speaker 9 (01:20:43):
That is. That's the wrong game.

Speaker 3 (01:20:45):
Plea, Come on, Conan, what are you doing?

Speaker 11 (01:20:50):
It's me.

Speaker 3 (01:20:50):
I'm still the president.

Speaker 15 (01:20:51):
I'm Joe, I'm maybe older.

Speaker 3 (01:20:54):
Beat the hell out of you, Popya. I'll give you
an uncle sandwich.

Speaker 15 (01:20:57):
You know how to do it.

Speaker 3 (01:20:58):
I can make sandwiches.

Speaker 15 (01:21:00):
And guess what, here's the deal. I'm not the old
one now.

Speaker 18 (01:21:03):
Trump is the only difference I know him to walk
away about six months too late?

Speaker 9 (01:21:10):
Okay, show me whateverle that was.

Speaker 2 (01:21:14):
I love that, by the way, and it wasn't six
months too late. Joe Biden should have walked away years ago.
He probably shouldn't still be in charge of our country,
which he somehow is. Well, we're willing to say that
his brain is this level of broken, and he's actually mad.
According to Axios, he's no longer getting along at all
with Harris because of how much he's been pushed out
of any sort of reelection bid of her, not just

(01:21:36):
obviously him not being allowed to run anymore by the
Democratic Party, but shoving him to the side even in
this and Harris trying now to coordinate with DeSantis in
Florida after Hurricane Milton or Hurricane Lean, It's just odd.
It's just weird, all right. One other thing I want
to touch on. I saw this as a palate cleanser.
So this and Sara Night Live before we take a break.

(01:21:58):
Holly Berry went viral by recalling that early on in
her modeling career, she spent time living as one of
fifteen women fifteen models inside a one bedroom apartment in Chicago,
where they either slept on the.

Speaker 3 (01:22:13):
Floor or shared beds together.

Speaker 2 (01:22:15):
Halle Berry went viral for saying that this demonstrates how
difficult it is to be successful in the world of modeling.
How I guess this is her version of Harris's thing,
where you say, I grew up with a mom who
had to struggle to work hard to get us by.

Speaker 3 (01:22:29):
Middle class family and whatnot.

Speaker 2 (01:22:31):
The thing is, this seemed to miss the mark as
far as Holly, as far as halle Berry, excuse me
sharing the story, because a whole lot of people wished
that they got to go there and hang out with
all the models inside the apartment, which I think is hilarious.

Speaker 3 (01:22:47):
That's the dude reaction to that story.

Speaker 2 (01:22:49):
And a whole lot of guys would have very willingly
if they'd been asked to, probably helped clean up the.

Speaker 3 (01:22:55):
Lawn, do anything around the house.

Speaker 2 (01:22:57):
The chores would have been fine for halle Berry and
fifteen other models living in a one bedroom apartment together.
It's just an odd thing to share as far as like,
this is how I've struggled, and so this is why
you should feel bad for me in the world I struggled.
And by the way, just quickly, I know it doesn't matter,
it's not important, and no one's going to be jealous
of this, and no one's going to have the same
reaction they did.

Speaker 3 (01:23:18):
To halle Berry's story.

Speaker 2 (01:23:19):
But I once lived in the house with a whole
bunch of dudes at the same time, But that was weird.
I was a bartender in between semesters at college and
a bunch of Irish guys who were on vacation renting
I think a two bedroom apartment in Chicago. Asked me
if I had crashed with them for the summer. I
didn't have a place at the time. I was crashing
with another buddy until my next semester started, because it
would help make parties go easier if the cops got called,

(01:23:41):
so they'd have an actual, like American citizen answered the
door and not a bunch of people who were just
there on tourist visas.

Speaker 3 (01:23:47):
And I did that.

Speaker 2 (01:23:48):
I was like, yeah, sure, no problem, man, that'll be fine,
And it went quite well for me. That was absolutely
a party house and insane. It was a frat without
being a frat. But nonetheless they gave me a bedroom
all to myself, which was very nice of them, and
a whole lot of them. I think we're crashing on
couches in the basement and whatnot, which I didn't worry
so much about. And they as they were all here
legally and they all left at the end of their

(01:24:09):
trip to the United States. I just thought that was
hilarious that when halle Berry was talking about her experience
living in one very small apartment with a whole bunch
of people that I can relate to you, Halle, although
mine was nowhere near as fun or clean. I imagine
fifteen models living together was much much cleaner than the
craziness that I dealt with and the horrific things that

(01:24:30):
happened inside that home. But again, I got to lock
myself in the bedroom when we weren't having a party,
and that was fine. That seemed better. Everyone was better
for it. All Right, On that note, I'll take a
break in just a little bit. You got a lot
coming up on the show today. This is Craig Collins
filling in on the Chad Benson show.

and binge to your ears content. Oh, you're listening to
the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:26:48):
This is the Chad Benson Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in, thrilled to be with you. A bunch of
stuff out there to talk about. SpaceX pulled off its
giant chopsticks idea yesterday morning in South tax Says, where
they had robotic arms or metal arms catch part of
a rocket that returned back to Earth, which is insane.
Here's a little bit of audio of what that sounds

(01:27:10):
like if you're part of a team that's doing incredible
things we've never seen before on this planet. Also, Elon
Musk is hated by a whole lot of media, but
that's beside the point.

Speaker 3 (01:27:18):
That's not important. Let's do this in three two one
we have FlipTop is one of the most gorgeous things
I've ever seen in my entire life. On hot stage
for separation confirmed, mister.

Speaker 24 (01:27:31):
Coming and see how fast this vehicle is moving on
the left hand short.

Speaker 13 (01:27:41):
What fo Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:27:45):
I don't know about you, but we're using our stuff,
are you?

Speaker 2 (01:27:49):
Yeah, we can tell you're losing your stuff. What a
great catch, just in time for the next round of
the MLB playoffs. I'm a Yankee fan, by the way,
Go Yankees. But yes, a massive rocket returned to Earth,
turned its thrust off or whatever you call it, and
just hung out because Elon Musk continues to do incredible
things via SpaceX. Although if your mainstream media you hate
him because he changed Twitter to allow people that have

(01:28:11):
a different ideology than the.

Speaker 3 (01:28:12):
Left say stuff online. That's the whole reason to hate
the guy. I not this stuff. That means he's good.

Speaker 2 (01:28:18):
By the way, one other funny thing that I saw,
and maybe I'll discuss this a little bit more in
just a bit, but some famous albums that were banned
by Walmart when they first came out include Nirvana's never Mind,
Dookie by Green Day. Even Willie Nelson's Countryman apparently was
banned at one point by Walmart because they thought they
were inappropriate. Nonetheless, now no one buys CDs from anywhere,

(01:28:40):
so sort of hilarious to think that at some point
we thought it was so important to prevent us from
having certain CDs in certain places. All right, this is
Craig Collins filling in. I got a lot more coming up,
including maybe more of these band albums in just a
bit on the Chad Benson Show. Another one that actually
got banned that I couldn't believe was Mister Happy, Go
Lucky by John Mellencamp. The original cover had Jesus and

(01:29:03):
did the Devil on it, so Walmart thought that was
inappropriate and they couldn't sell it. John Mellencamp CD. Maybe
he did that just to be in the group. Maybe
he thought they were leaving him out. He couldn't hang
out with the cool kids from Nirvana and Green Day,
so he had to do this. Other ones, just some
other ones. The Fat of the Land by Prodigy. It
had some bad words and some of the lyrics of

(01:29:23):
some of the songs. Walmart wasn't okay with that. And
also Cheryl Crowe yes her self titled album Cheryl Crowe
also was banned by Walmart. The song Love Is a
Good Thing had a line about some stuff that they
didn't like it Walmart at the time, so they went
ahead and ban that too. How weird by the way
that oftentimes you talk about how political side of the

(01:29:44):
aisle is trying to censor society, and then this stuff
is just stuff we forget about from the past other
people are talking about today. But very strange, very odd.
I'm glad all those albums broke through. I did have
Dookie by Green Day as a kid, as far as.

Speaker 3 (01:29:58):
A ced goes.

Speaker 2 (01:30:00):
I remember my mom was even upset about that. She
thought it was a terrible album, maybe because Walmart had
banned it. I'm not sure what the reason was, but
I thought the songs were pretty good. Green Day today
not as good, definitely a lot more political and a
lot less fun. But back then I knew all the
words to songs I shouldn't have known as a young man,
and I feel good about that.

Speaker 3 (01:30:17):
Everyone's fine. I know what it all meant. You know.

Speaker 2 (01:30:20):
I thought basket Case was a great song. I didn't
worry about all the lyrics and their true meeting anyway.
That's it for now. We're taking quick break. A lot
more coming up in a bit. Greig Collins filling in
on The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 21 (01:30:42):
The Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson show.

Speaker 2 (01:31:08):
This is the Chad Benson Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in, thrilled to be with you. A bunch of
stuff to talk about. Let's do pulling real quick. CNN
is still very shocked at how poorly Kamala Harris is
doing with certain groups of the population, specifically black men,
especially younger black men. Men between the ages of eighteen
and forty four. Not a fan of Harris to the

(01:31:30):
degree that any Democratic politician in recent memory has been
a fan, they have been a fan of or that
voting block is more likely to vote for said person.
Here is the way that CNN covered this, Harry Etton,
I thought this was interesting. Before we get to how
some politicians are in denial about this sort of thing.

Speaker 3 (01:31:47):
Here we go, sometimes there's a trend line.

Speaker 11 (01:31:50):
You know, I look at the polls all the time,
and sometimes there's a trend line though I never noticed before,
and make me go, whoa, this is one of them, right.
This is the Democratic margin among black men under the
age of forty five and presidential elections. You go back
to November of twenty twelve. What do you see. You
see Obama by eighty one. Clinton only won and by
sixty three, then we're all the way down a bide

(01:32:11):
and last time around by fifty three, a tremendous drop already.
And then you take a look at the average of
the most recent polls and Kamala Harris is up by
only forty one points. That is about half the margin
that Obama won them by back in November of twenty twelve.
And this, I think is, you know, when Barack Obama
goes in last week, when he was in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
essentially talking to young black men, he made it seem

(01:32:34):
like it was a Kamala Harris specific problem.

Speaker 6 (01:32:36):
Uh uh.

Speaker 11 (01:32:37):
This is part of a long standing trend of young
black men moving away from the Democratic Party in Kamala
Harris is.

Speaker 2 (01:32:43):
Just because they don't think that any of the promises
that are being made are actually being fulfilled. And that's
true of any group of people that thinks that they're
only really a political talking point during an election season.
Or for the sake of Kamala Harris, there are many
people that believe she's only talking about her ethnicity, even
though she doesn't really feel as tied, or at least
she didn't seem to behave as tied to being black

(01:33:06):
up until her election, and then all of a sudden,
she's talking about her life as a black woman all
the time, and they're like, wait a minute, you never
even discussed this before. And if you did bring up innicity,
you talked about your life as Indian, not as African American.
It makes no sense. These things are confusing to a
lot of us, and I love how confusing they are
to Rafael Warnock, specifically, because he's not buying it.

Speaker 3 (01:33:27):
Man. He doesn't care what the polls say. It's not
going to happen, darn it.

Speaker 22 (01:33:31):
A New York Times poll released this weekend shows Vice
President Harris at seventy eight percent among black likely voters.
That's nearly ten points behind what President Biden got in
according to the twenty twenty exit polls. So one in
five black men are saying that they're supporting Donald Trump.

Speaker 7 (01:33:51):
Why do you think that is?

Speaker 9 (01:33:54):
Listen, let me tell you something this morning.

Speaker 6 (01:33:58):
Black men are not going to vote for Donald Trump
in any significant numbers.

Speaker 3 (01:34:03):
They're not gonna do it, darn it.

Speaker 2 (01:34:04):
I know you just said that they might do it,
but I'm going to disagree with you and say they're
not going to do it. I know better for a
certain voters than what they know for themselves. That's Rafael Warnock,
a black man, saying that it's just not going to happen.

Speaker 3 (01:34:16):
We don't care.

Speaker 2 (01:34:17):
That is elite politics. That's the version of not even
understanding what the street is telling you they care about. No,
the street is not specific to a race. I mean
in general, the everyday American experience and the way in
which we're saying out loud, hey, we are on the
ground here, we're actually living day to day, and these
are the things we care about.

Speaker 3 (01:34:36):
These are the things we don't and politicians not accepting
the message.

Speaker 2 (01:34:40):
If Democrats fail to gain support from some of the
more traditional avenues that they typically gain support from, what
they should do about it is accept the criticism and
change their message, change their narrative, or even change some
of their positions on certain conversations.

Speaker 3 (01:34:56):
Not tell people it's not happening.

Speaker 2 (01:34:58):
That is idiotic, and that's what they're doing about inflation,
or that's what they were doing about inflation, the border,
all these other things. As you're seeing signs that the
people who hire you essentially are saying, I'm not happy
with the job performance. You can't turn to those bosses
and say, shut up your mouth. I'm going to keep
doing it my way and not your way. It's horrible.
By the way, Trump went viral for something he said

(01:35:19):
about the border, and I know there's some shots being
taken at him for saying that, why didn't you get,
you know, behind this sort of thing before when there
was a bipartisan deal being offered on this And that's
woefully overly simplified whenever anybody talks about that.

Speaker 3 (01:35:35):
But here, let me play Trump first.

Speaker 25 (01:35:36):
I will always stand with the incredible men and women
a border patrol. And today I'm announcing a plan to
address the shortage. You know, we have a tremendous shortness
because they haven't been treated right. They want to do
their jobs. You know, they consider it bad treatment when
you're not allowed to do your job, and that's the
biggest problem. They don't want people running in front of them.
They want to stop them from coming in. And that's

(01:35:58):
going to save a lot of people, including the people
the shopping. But to address the shortage of border patrol
agents caused by the catastrophic failures of Kamala, our great
borders are who's the worst in history. We have a
tremendous morale crisis because of her and her policies, and

(01:36:18):
we think of it not one of the leaders. You
have all the leaders up here, You have all the
leaders in the room. You have Brandon right over there
was the leader for a long time, brilliantly.

Speaker 15 (01:36:27):
The leader never got.

Speaker 25 (01:36:28):
A call from them, not Biden, he was sleeping, and
not her.

Speaker 3 (01:36:34):
They did not reach out often. Anyway.

Speaker 2 (01:36:35):
He goes on to say Trump that he'll give ten
thousand dollars in retention bonuses and a ten percent raise
out of border agents as they try to hire more. Now,
the shot the criticism of Trump is that there was
a bipartisan deal at one point on the table that
would have offered hiring of more border agents and more
money out of border agents, and that was rejected. It

(01:36:56):
wasn't rejected because of those issues, rejected because of the
other stuff that was in any of those deals. Whether
it was funding for Ukraine that was a big objection point,
whether it was some of the changes on how they
would have made legal the status of a lot of
people already in this country. There were many issues that
Republicans would not propose in their own version of a

(01:37:16):
bill that wound up being things that the larger Republican
party did not support, even if in any sort of
a bipartisan deal making situation, a small amount of people.
I thought it was a good idea to give in
on some of the stuff, although they wound up actually
also rejecting it by and large the people who were
involved in crafting it, which would tell you something. But nonetheless,
I love how oversimplified that gets when people discuss, oh,

(01:37:40):
Trump killed a bipartisan deal and doesn't support it. Well, no,
if you actually passed issues without a bunch of other
stuff jammed in, there's a good chance a whole lot
of people on the side of the aisle that you're
opposing would actually pass it. But Democrats don't want that
as much as Republicans. They don't want to pass something
that's a simplified standalone bill because you can't then call

(01:38:01):
something else a bill that handles that that does a
lot more than just this one issue. It's how a
lot of things work in DC. You know it, I
know it.

Speaker 3 (01:38:08):
It's ridiculous they keep talking about it this way.

Speaker 2 (01:38:11):
I'd love one issue bills getting passed more often in Washington,
d C.

Speaker 3 (01:38:15):
It doesn't happen. They're not gonna do it.

Speaker 2 (01:38:17):
Everything's an opportunity to negotiate other stuff, and that's where
all the actual friction lies.

Speaker 3 (01:38:22):
All right, I'm gonna shift gears.

Speaker 2 (01:38:24):
We just had football over the weekend, a whole lot
of people, of course watching the NFL. One of my
favorite moments happened during the Pittsburgh Steelers game where they
had a trick play that went horribly, horribly wrong, and
CBS did not hide its opinion of said trick play.
I'll go ahead and play some of the audio of this,
but I thought this was pretty funny stuff.

Speaker 7 (01:38:43):
Six h four to play in this first half, Las
Vegas with a.

Speaker 3 (01:38:47):
One point lead.

Speaker 15 (01:38:48):
Trickery back for fields that didn't work. Get it out
of the playbook, Divine.

Speaker 5 (01:38:54):
Diablo, you want razzle dazzle, just got.

Speaker 9 (01:39:00):
It on defense.

Speaker 13 (01:39:01):
It's a loss of thirteen.

Speaker 3 (01:39:02):
I loss at thirteen is bad. That's not a good
play right there.

Speaker 2 (01:39:06):
It was a terrible pitch backward to a running back
and then to another I think tight end that was
making a move across the field, and eventually pitched backward
a third time to the quarterback that they snapped the
ball to in justin Fields, who then got tackled for
a thirteen year loss. That's a bad play that should
be out of the playbook. I can't imagine that actually
worked in any time in practice. May be like, well,

(01:39:28):
the defense knew what was coming, so probably it's going
to work out way better during the game. That was
horrible and hilarious. I don't know why I enjoyed it
so much watching it, but I did. I want other
Pallette cleanser. I just want to play Palette cleansers.

Speaker 3 (01:39:41):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:39:42):
I'm sick of the news. I hope you're sick of
the news too, because there's so much dumb news out
there in the world.

Speaker 3 (01:39:47):
I thought this was funny.

Speaker 2 (01:39:49):
People say that a white noise machine something that helps
you go to sleep. They probably call it racist. I
don't know, but something that helps you go to sleep
should have more sounds that are reminiscent of your childhood.
So this is one for say, someone who grew up
in the nineties or the early two thousands, the eighties,
millennial a gen zer. These are things that you might

(01:40:11):
remember from your childhood. I don't know if this will
work for everybody. I think some of these are pretty
universal beyond the generation. Some of them are not going great,
and there should be more of these in your white
noise machine if you use one to go to sleep.
I thought this was very funny, although some of these
would actually make you want to get up and say,
play a video game.

Speaker 26 (01:40:27):
But here we go, rickety almost broken frog span, the
PlayStation startup music, the fire alarm truth, the faucet gently
leaking because my brother forgot to turn.

Speaker 11 (01:40:39):
It off entirely, and of course the classic my parents
fighting in the other room here yelling.

Speaker 3 (01:40:50):
I gotta love that version of a fight.

Speaker 2 (01:40:52):
I was having a beer and I don't understand why
you're yelling at me for not doing the dishes. But
these are things they say should be added to the
white noise machine, how to make it easier for you
to all asleep if you're a millennial.

Speaker 3 (01:41:01):
I like the Xbox startups sound. That one's good. I'm
a big fan of that. But what would some of
yours be.

Speaker 2 (01:41:06):
I'm curious. You can tell Chad Benson. I haven't done
this for a while. I used to do this more
often when I filled in on his show. Go to
his social media pages and tell him what noises you'd
love on a white noise machine from your childhood like
references to your childhood today. He'll have no idea what
you're talking about, but tweet Adham Facebook message him there
and tell him what other things are missing, and when
he comes back tomorrow, I'm sure producer Phil will explain

(01:41:29):
it to him.

Speaker 3 (01:41:29):
If anybody actually does this.

Speaker 2 (01:41:31):
I used to ask for people to do that very often,
and then I kind of gave up.

Speaker 3 (01:41:34):
But let's do it again. Let's see if that works.

Speaker 2 (01:41:36):
I'll check his page, I'll tweet one Adam or something too,
and we'll see how many people actually miss certain things
that you'd love to hear that would calm you down
as you're falling asleep for the night, and also put
your phone away, because that's probably what's actually keeping you up.

Speaker 3 (01:41:48):
All right.

Speaker 2 (01:41:49):
On that note, we'll take a little bit of an
earlier break. We'll come back in just a bit. I
do have some crazy things to talk about, including a
guy who went to artificial intelligence to get a break
up text written for them, and some of the things
it changed were some of the reasons it went very viral.
Of it certainly amusing and probably not the right road
if you're gonna break up with someone. And you want

(01:42:10):
them to feel like they matter. I don't get a
computer to write a text message. Maybe give them a call,
talk to them in person and tell them that it's
it's not you, it's me. At least go that road,
because that will work out better than this. But I'll
tell you what that was and much more in just
a bit. Craig Collins filling in on the Chad Benson show.

Speaker 15 (01:42:27):
My pillow, My pillow has the my slippers. That's right,
the my slippers, the moccasins on cell.

Speaker 14 (01:42:35):

Speaker 3 (01:44:00):

Speaker 9 (01:44:05):

Speaker 3 (01:44:11):
It's not a great way to use your white privilege.

Speaker 19 (01:44:13):
Some people got it, some people don't.

Speaker 1 (01:44:16):
You're listening to the Chad Ventson show.

Speaker 2 (01:44:20):
This is the Chad Benson Show. My name is Craig Collins,
filling in for the day. Chad is back tomorrow. Thank
you for being with us. This is a lot of
fun for me. A guy went on one of my
favorite places online, am I the jerk is when I
say am I, the A word is actually how you
find it? On Reddit and he asked a simple question.
He is that he's finally thinking about divorcing his wife.
He's only in his twenties. I don't know exactly how

(01:44:42):
long he's been married, but he describes himself as a
twenty eight year old man. He says it's come to
a head. He's got an issue. He can't get over
it anymore. His wife doesn't know how to cook. He's
been the one doing all the cooking in the house
and he's fed up. He doesn't want to keep going.
He wants her to learn how to cook something. And
he says it's real bad. She's not the regular type
of can't cook a lot of stuff. She can't even

(01:45:03):
make box macaroni and cheese, and he wonders if she's
doing it on purpose to keep herself from acquiring this
job some of the time and to make him keep
cooking all the time. He also said that he likes cooking,
so that's why it wasn't a deal an issue at
the beginning of the relationship, but it's slowly become harder
since they have been together for a while now. There's
a lot of things about this story I love. First,

(01:45:24):
I don't cook, my wife does. In our house. I
do almost no cooking. I like grilling. If there's a
grill in our future, I'll probably wind up being involved
in that. But she's just better at it. Sure I
could cook stuff. I'm sure I could make things. I
could follow directions, but that doesn't mean it's good. I mean,
producer Phil would know this as someone who's also an
excellent cook, Like there's a skill to this, and so

(01:45:46):
she's better. And so I think every day when we're
thinking about making a meal, we're sitting down with each
other and we're thinking, we could have something delicious if
my wife Betty makes it, or we could have something
that's not delicious if I make it. Even if it's serve,
I'm not going to screw up boxed macaroni and cheese.
It's just not gonna be as good. And so we
air on the side of delicious more often than not. Well,

(01:46:08):
probably pretty much all the time.

Speaker 3 (01:46:09):
But I love.

Speaker 2 (01:46:10):
My favorite thing about this story too, is the guy
didn't know she wasn't good at cooking before being married.
I don't know how you don't test that out at
some point, you don't stay in instead of going out,
and then you see if it's her turn to maybe host,
and then maybe she makes meal. If this is gonna
be a deal breaker for you, I think you got
to figure out going in. If this is a skill
somebody has or wants to develop or has no interest in,

(01:46:32):
and she's someone who has no interest in being better
at cooking, and I'm spoiled, I guess because I have
no interest in being better either, because I have someone
in the house that's doing it and doing a great job.
Let's not take away from that. But I don't poorly
cook on purpose. I love the people always accuse other
people of that too, like, oh, you're doing it wrong
so that the other person doesn't ask you to do
it more. If that's going on in your relationship, you

(01:46:54):
have some communication issues that are probably at the forefront
of the problem beyond who's the better cook, that probably
need to be figured out or need to at least
be discussed. You know, talk amongst yourselves about things that
seems good.

Speaker 3 (01:47:07):
But anyway, this is a real story. The guy got
a lot of hate.

Speaker 2 (01:47:10):
People telling them he's a sexist and a terrible person
because he's making it the woman's job to cook, even
though he's the one.

Speaker 3 (01:47:16):
Who's doing most of the cooking. People didn't didn't read it.

Speaker 2 (01:47:20):
It seems like a lot of people who commented on
this just read the headline I'm a husband. I'm thinking
about getting a divorce because my wife's not good at cooking.

Speaker 3 (01:47:26):
And they're like, no, I have a problem.

Speaker 2 (01:47:28):
I'm going to tell you I have a problem, and
then I'm going to leave and not listen to any
more of this discussion. Some other things out there, just
quickly before we get out of here for the day.
A guy had artificial intelligence summarize a text he wanted
to send to his girlfriend in order.

Speaker 3 (01:47:43):
To break up with her.

Speaker 2 (01:47:45):
And so the text was quite long, and it turned
into no longer want relationship, want belongings from the apartment,
and he sent that to her.

Speaker 3 (01:47:54):
He's like, well, hey, I knows what they're doing.

Speaker 2 (01:47:55):
I mean, they certainly made a brief and so that
was the entire breakup text, no longer want relationship, want
belongings from the apartment. Good job. The semi colin was
used effectively, so at least that's a pro tip if
you're going to do something that short and you want
to have two different phrases in there. Semi Colin is
going to be your best friend, he said. The woman

(01:48:16):
that he's no longer dating was not a fan of
the AI, A shortening of his message, no version of
it's not you, it's me, and all that other stuff
that should have been in there. But really, the beauty
of this thing, the simplicity of it. If you're going
to text message breakup instead of real life breakup, why
not make it that short?

Speaker 3 (01:48:33):
All right?

Speaker 2 (01:48:34):
That's one of my thoughts today. It's a whole lot
of other ones you missed if you're just tuning in now.
Craig Collins filling in on the Chad Benson Show. And
one last thing I do love is Apple Intelligence is
also a summarizing text for you, not quite as bad,
but apparently not doing a good job either, and getting
the gist of what you're trying to say with less words.

Speaker 3 (01:48:56):
Break up with a lot of words. I think that's fine.

Speaker 2 (01:48:58):
One other quick story just before we get out of
here that I thought was interesting. Hackers broke into a
robot vacuum to just yell racial slurs at people. That's
a real thing that happened in the world. So we're
all happy and good and nothing's bad going on. Everything
will be fine. Hey, you guys, Next time, Craig Collin's
filling in on the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:49:23):
This is the Chad Benson Show.
