Episode Transcript

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

Speaker 2 (00:13):
I think this about sums up what's going on in
the modern world of politics, especially when it comes to
there always seems to be an election.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
Democrats won't save you if you're drowning.

Speaker 4 (00:29):
They won't help you if you are in pain. They'll
ask you for your vote. Well, they'll tell you they
are broken province and a lot of money to Ukraine.

Speaker 5 (00:39):
As Republicans will obviously kill you, but at least you
know where they are at.

Speaker 6 (00:48):
They'll shoot you in the head, make sure that you
are dead.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
The Democrats will shoot you in the back.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
And this is the last democracy we've.

Speaker 7 (00:58):
Ever had anywhere.

Speaker 5 (01:04):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
I think that's about as reel as it gets right there,
don't you guys think so if you're a billionaire, No doubt.
Last night, a lot of stuff people looking at Michigan,
Oh my god, who won? Who won? Who won? Too
close to call? Too close to call? Currently, I'll say
it is in the lead by about twenty thousand votes.

(01:25):
To trigger an automatic recount, it's got to be like
one tenth of one persist. I'm so minuscule. He's up
by twenty thousand votes. It would have to be somewhere
around two thousand votes, give or take for there to
be a recount. Now, I think he's going to probably win,

(01:46):
but I wouldn't be surprised if there's going to be
a recount. Even because she can ask for one doesn't
mean there's going to be one. They spent a ton
of money. This is Apak went hard at him big time.
The amount of money they spent on him is huge

(02:07):
to oust him because she's a little bit more Israel Friendly.
That being said, either way, you have to go after
Mike Rogers, and Mike Rogers when it comes to AlSi
ed has a lead on him. With her, it's more

(02:28):
of a toss up. So this is what you got.
And and people it's funny to listen to people freak
out about this because yesterday we talked about the DSA.
We might talk about it a little bit later because
I just I want to go over again why the
communists aren't going to take over. But it's a great story, right,
I mean, it's a great story. They're communists, they're all

(02:48):
of the things. I mean, my God, listen to them,
all right, y'all, money out of money in your many
care for all right, y'all.

Speaker 8 (02:58):
Look I wish I could tell you that I was
declaring victory right about now.

Speaker 9 (03:04):
Turns out it takes a long time to count some
votes in Michigan.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Well, thank god you're not in California. I still think
they're counting votes in California from twenty twenty four. But
he is exactly what people are turning to right now.
Not because they want abolish police, abolish ice, open up

(03:29):
the prisons, et cetera, et cetera. They're frustrated with the
what the status quo did they feel is failing them
big time. And APAC spend a ton of money. Outside
money flew into this, to the tune of, depending on
where you're watching, forty million to seventy million to beat him.

(03:49):
We all knew they were going to spend their money.

Speaker 8 (03:51):
We didn't know they were going to spend seventy million
dollars of their money.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
We didn't know.

Speaker 10 (03:55):
That they were going to outspend US eleven dollars to
one dollar.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
And yet we're still standing. So we'll see what comes
of it. But this is just a pushback against the establishment. So,
you know, Donald Trump was that for a lot of people,
the right and the left and the frustrated he was
a pushback originally against the deep state, whatever you want

(04:24):
to the establishment. That's why people liked him an outsider
to you know, because any commercial you hear, it's like
he's an outsider to Washington. Now Trump has become the
leader of the swamp, and you know, he's become all
the things he warned everybody else about that was happening.
But this is all. This is the think that tomorrow

(04:45):
we're going to wake up and automatically or a communist
nation is insane. Yesterday Trump did a interview with the
Shock Fox, but this was brought up.

Speaker 11 (04:56):
One of the big stories, of course, is the primaries
in Michigan, specifically where it looks like abdul Lsa it
is going to win, has a very good chance to
win that Senate race, at least his primary race. What
do you think about the traction these these candidates who
were backed by the DSA and members of the DSA
are getting.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
So they ask him that question. My question would be,
do you understand why they're making noise? You understand why
they are growing in popularity with their message? But they
ask them what do you think of this? And of
course he gives you the stat answer about how they're
going to destroy everything.

Speaker 12 (05:31):
Well, I think it's crazy because they're going to ruin
our country.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
I don't know if they want to.

Speaker 12 (05:35):
I think either they're very naive or they actually want
to ruin the country. No matter where you look, go
back a thousand years with different names, anybody doing what
they're doing and what they're espousing, everything turns out to
ashes and junk and filth. You know one thing I
said the other day for the first time ever, never
thought of it. But you go to these cities that

(05:56):
are taken over by the socialists and the communists, they're
always filthy, dirty, They're disgusting, They're always dirty. And you know,
I'm a clean person and people I know what clean
like that, and you are, I know you very well,
you're very clean. But these are aside from crime, aside
from all of the other problems, no jobs, no anything,
no money, they're always filthy, disgusting, dirty, and that's what

(06:21):
you'll get, you know.

Speaker 13 (06:22):
I want Michigan. I did great in Michigan, and we
should win. We have a men. Mike Rogers is going
to be fantastic. I'm not a big believer in polls,
but I believe in him somewhat, and based on the polls,
he'll do much better against Abdul than.

Speaker 12 (06:37):
He's going to do against the congresswoman Paul.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Abdul's running. No, No, Abdul, Abdul's his name, Abdul l
Siat is running. But you throw that in there because
it works right certain group of people. Oh did he
say Abduel's running? What's this guy? Probably wants sharia law,
Probably want sharia law. Primaries are not generals. Okay. I

(07:03):
want everybody understand primaries are not generals. And even if
he is declared the winner and eventually faces in November,
Mike Rodgers, it's got an uphill battle. Quality of candidate matters.
The question though, that I don't hear asked, do you

(07:24):
understand why people are pissed and angry? Do you understand
the understand the frustration that people are feeling right now?
Do you understand the reason that they're getting this kind
of bump in popularity is because they're becoming a well
oiled machine, and we've talked about that, but also because
people are angry at the status quo, and that goes

(07:46):
on both sides. The reason that you're the president, mister
president is because people were angry at the status quo,
and that included the Republican Party. So it's going to
be interesting again as we move forward and get through
the primaries when you see what happens in the general
because quality of candidate, I will say it a thousand

(08:07):
times matters over and over again, quality of candidate. Meanwhile,
we're at war. I don't know if you guys know this.
Apparently we're gonna have a deal any second now from
what I'm being told. And now some of the articles
coming out is they're kind of leaving Trump out of
the deal making process. That's not true. They just don't

(08:29):
want to make deals because I make deals and they
don't like the deals, and the deals we're going to
get a very deally oh if you know what I mean.
So what is coming right now? Well, one thing's for sure,
as I've been saying. But then everything that you don't
know what you're talking about, you either, because I love that. Okay, fine,
I don't know what I'm talking about, But now it's everywhere.

(08:50):
Oh yeah, we don't have any any of the stuff
we really need to defend. Then we're lacking a little
bit in that. Oh so they know that now it's out.
You can't hide the fact that it's out. But we've
talked about that. So what's this negotiation. Well, from what
I understand, Oman and Iran are close to cutting a

(09:13):
deal that will allow them to charge a fee. W
you guys understand that will allow them to charge a fee,
meaning Iran now is in control of the Straits, like
Trump is all, We're going to open it up any minute.
It's happening. It's already opened. So much stuff's happening. No,

(09:36):
what's happening is they control the straits at this moment
in time. Now they're saying, well, we're going to put
a blockade. Okay, so we're back to where we were,
which is that old? Did you quit or did you
get fired? Yes? So I don't know. I don't know

(09:56):
at this moment in time how likely it is that
we're going to nuclearize them, which is again I always
got to throw that in there.

Speaker 14 (10:03):
Of Iran is the ultimate deal, I think the immediate deal,
and one that you see a lot of focus on
is the strips the straits. You know, there are ships
moving through the straits that are there's wild moving right
now through the stricts.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
So the straits are open. The straits are not open.
That's a lie. You can go look it up for yourself.
If the straits are open, you can actually look at
the ships. Closed since February twenty seven doesn't mean a
few things don't get through here or there. But as
far as them being open, that's not true. So just

(10:39):
to put that out there, not true. They are not
open at this moment in time. Currently there are zero
vessels waiting. At best, we might get eight to ten
out today, which is about fifteen percent of a normal

(10:59):
day coming in and out of there. So they're not open,
just to throw that out there. And even if we
sign some sort of memorandum of understanding, as we know,
that means very little because every time we seem to

(11:20):
sign one of these or declare one of these, it
has all to do with trying to control price more
than it has to do with actually trying to solve
the problem. And that problem is they now control the straits,
and that problem was man made by us. We man
made it that one, three, two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three acts had meant to show.

(11:40):

This is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
You're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
We do this funny walk with nature, a dance of danger.
You say, I do say that. So you got nature
always trying to do something to you. So we got this,
you know, the explosive diarrhea, the psychosporiasis thing. Right, We've
got to watch out for the lattice. Right, We've had
recalls berries in the last couple of weeks. Now, you know,

(13:33):
Port Taco Bell has been thrown under the bus.

Speaker 15 (13:35):
Now, Chipotle is removing halapeno's at some of its restaurants
because of concern about a salmonella outbreak. The company is
saying it's acting out of an abundance of caution. Health
officials in Minnesota say more than one hundred salmonella cases
appear to be connected to halapanos. Dozens of patients reported
eating at Chipotle.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
Oh my god. So now we're got to watch out
for that. And you know you've probably thinking yourself self,
you know what, I'm just going to go for a walk. Okay,
is all I'm gonna do. I'm just going to go
for a walk, coming to get outside. Now we gotta
worry about what rabbits? What is it called?

Speaker 10 (14:07):
This is commonly called rabbit illness, and the reason why
it's called that is because it can often be associated
with sick rabbits, but can be associated with other types
of rodents, including rats and even deer. Important to understand here,
we typically in the United States see around two hundred
or so of these cases of year, So this is
not abnormal. But what is abnormal is the rise in

(14:27):
the number of tick bites. The CDC data shows that
this year alone, the number of tick bites is the
highest it's been since twenty seventeen.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
So now I gotta worry about which. So is the
tick bites the rabbit and then the tick bites you.
The tick bites the rabbit, then the rabbit bite you.
How is this going down? What are we doing? What? What?

Speaker 5 (14:46):
Now?

Speaker 10 (14:47):
Rabbit fever It can present similar to the flues, sometimes
with a fever, swollen lymph nodes, and sometimes a wound
or really a significant bite injury from the tick or
the fly that causes the sickness and the illness.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
Now I got to worry about ticks, flies, crazy rodents.
I mean it's salmonila, lettuce. What is happening here? Understand
where your risk is.

Speaker 10 (15:09):
If you live in the Northeast, the upper Midwest, even
the mid Atlantic, you're seeing these rise in the number
of ticks. And if you're in a bush area or
high grass, and you want to make sure to protect
yourself long sleeves and EPA registered repellent, and you want
to make sure that you avoid abnormally behaving animals. I
know that sounds like it's an obvious factor, but many
people want to rush to help, and that can put

(15:30):
you in harm's way.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
No Taco Bell, no Chipotle, and no nature. Nature's coming
for you, just in case we did go to nature.
Any suggestion, when.

Speaker 10 (15:40):
You get back inside from being outside, especially if you're
in an area of high risk, you want to take
your clothes off and put them in a dryer. Studies
show that showering within two hours of getting home can
also reduce your risk. And remember, the longer the tick
stays on you, more the risk of a tick born illness.
Not just from this but also obviously commonly lined disease
as well as other tick born illnesses. So you want

(16:00):
to make sure to do a full body check that
includes your hair or the navel, between the fingers and
the toes.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
Stay indoors, right, if we can do anything for you today,
stay indoors all right, that's our suggestion right here on
the Chad Benson Show. But then if you stay in
and you watch something you could have watched. Perez Hilton
last night, the famous blogger, celebrity whatever he is, reporter.
I don't know what he is at this point in
time outside of just being an influencer in a celebrity

(16:26):
dude crashed out like crashed out on a TikTok Live
to the point where he was cutting himself. I mean
it was nasty. Oh shoot me, mother. The police are
here cutting himself up. Eventually the cops came and wrangled him.

Speaker 16 (16:55):
Okay, latest update on Price Hilton. It appears he has
been taken by ambulance. He is alive. This is my
third update, so you can tune into the last two
updates for a full recap. But he was on TikTok Live,
very disturbing video. Appeared to have been self harming. I
describe it as a scene out of the movie Carrie.
It was very, very disturbing. I don't recommend you watch it,

(17:18):
but it appears that the authorities were able to I
don't know if detain is the right word, but they
were able to get him in custody and hopefully get
him the help that he needs.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
Yeah, and the difference between, you know, being in the
media and being on television is there's nobody there to
pull the plug when you start crashing out chumming up
a lot of stuff to get to with a white
woman Wednesday, among other things. Chad Benson Joe, then.

Speaker 17 (17:41):
Chad Benson Joe.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
We love crazy because well it's fun. Sometimes it is crazy,
is entertaining to watch, and it's also in today's world.
You can't ignore the culture wars, right, they're not going anywhere.
They're here. Algorithms love it and so we do talk
about it, usually on Wednesdays to have a bit of
a laugh. And that's why we have the same cold

(18:25):
white woman Wednesday.

Speaker 8 (18:27):
It's not him at the coffee bar. She's not streaming
from her car. Fat take so bredam GHD telling workers what.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
They ought to be.

Speaker 5 (18:38):
Let me send your experience begin over.

Speaker 6 (18:42):
Everyone got a friend for every human.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
Sin, but flocks you if you don't time in.

Speaker 8 (18:49):
It's white woman Wednesdays.

Speaker 2 (18:51):
And everybody's like, what do you call white woman Wednesday?
Because it's usually white women that are crazy saying crazy things.
I think we recognize that it's hilarious some of the
insanity that they say. Casan boyd our good friend Katie,
who is taking on everything that you need to take on,
and by the way as she takes it on, very theatrical,
see you later.

Speaker 18 (19:12):
Oh what do you want for a bad day? I
want the global downfall of white supremacy nice. I want
reparations paid to the black and brown and indigenous community
for the continued genocide against their people. I want white
people to learn history and sit with the uncomfortableness of
it every single day. I want white people to take

(19:34):
steps to being anti racist and know that if you
really want to be anti racist, you're going to be
on that path till the day you die, and it's
going to be uncomfortable, but you're going to create a
better future. I want white people to be actively anti
racist and active allies, not performative ones. Myself included everyone

(20:01):
should not.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
I don't know about you. That sounds like a lot
of work. No drama there. What do you want? Went totally?
Shatner overreacted it and acted it out. I want the
world to be a better place for tall and short people,
thin and fat, ugly and hot. All right, how about

(20:24):
just pick one of those? Okay? And by the way,
if you want to give your money away, nobody is
stopping you. Okay. Now, look, you want to be a
woman and you're white. So we included you in this
mostly because it's hilarious, and secondly because of the next story.

Speaker 19 (20:41):
The jersey used to represent someone I respect, we know
by the way, we know the jersey used to represent
someone I respected as an athlete. Today it represents something
I can't support any more. Sports have the power to
bring people together. But when someone uses their platform to
demonize or margin and already a vulnerable community, I have

(21:02):
to decide where I stand. So today I'm not burning
a person. I'm burning my support. As a trans woman.
I've spent years fighting just to exist authentically. I won't
spend a dollar or another minute or another ounce of
energy supporting people who contribute to making that fight harder.
This isn't about hate. It's about accountability. My money, my attention,

(21:24):
and my support are things people earn, not things people
are entitled to. Standing up for the trans community cost
me a jergy. That's a cheap price to pay. Choose empathy,
choose respect, choose humanity.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
So she burns Sophie cutting Haham's jergy, which has become
kind of the battle that's going on. By the way,
Sophie Cuttingham didn't and this is he's here's what happens. Okay,
I'm gonna I'm gonna walk you through the cultural battle
because remember, when there's gonna be a cultural war, you
have to live in the world of extremes because otherwise
the culture war is you can't nobody will pay attention.

(22:04):
So it's got to be over the top. And by
the way, we knew you weren't burning a person, so
you had Sophie cutting him there, I'm an a lighter
on fire, like I don't think you are, so Sophie
cutting him. Like a week ago, Tendege was asked about
something like biological men in women's sports and places. Sophie

(22:27):
gave an answer on that.

Speaker 7 (22:28):
Same vein and that story with ESPN.

Speaker 20 (22:30):
You talked about wanting to protect young girls who shouldn't
have to go against biological men.

Speaker 7 (22:34):
Just can you expand your viewpoint on that.

Speaker 21 (22:35):
I mean, I think I said what I said.

Speaker 22 (22:37):
I think it's kind of common sense, and I think
I always believe in that. I think it's really important
to protect children, and that's little girls who are also involved.

Speaker 21 (22:47):
In that category.

Speaker 22 (22:48):
And so I stand on what I said, and I
always believe that.

Speaker 20 (22:52):
Do you see your advocacy on that like taking any
form going forward?

Speaker 21 (22:56):
You know, I don't know. I didn't.

Speaker 22 (22:57):
I'm not a very political person, but I do have beliefs,
I have morals, and I'll always stand on those and
be true true to who I am. And I think
people are going to take it how they want to
take it.

Speaker 21 (23:08):
But I've never even really said anything about that.

Speaker 22 (23:10):
And so when it comes just to protecting young girls
in sport and women in sport, I feel very strongly
about that. I think that's why you have Title nine,
that's why you have some of the greats in women's sports.
If Title nine and women's sports weren't protected, then you
wouldn't hear about any type of women in sport.

Speaker 21 (23:26):
And so I think in the future, it's just really
important to protect.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
So look, what she said is not controversial. It shouldn't be.
It's just common sense. And at no point did she
say I hate the trans community, I hate the LGBTQ
plus IA community. At no point in time did she

(23:51):
utter any of those words about the hatred for the community.
She's looking at the world that she lives in and saying, hey,
we have Title nine for this reason. We push women's
sports and competition for this reason, and it is not
fair to have biological men, even if you identify as

(24:13):
a woman in this space, because it's just not a
level playing field. At no point did she QUBAC, I
hate this, I hate this because these people. She never
said any of that stuff at all.

Speaker 23 (24:28):
Continue do you think, I guess on a long on whe
like that it goes against Perhaps some people might say, hey,
for the trans community, this could be something that could
come back on us or be targeted against us.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
Like, how do you I guess view that sort of critique.

Speaker 22 (24:42):
You know, Like I said, I extend love and I
don't dislike anyone, Like I think there is room for
absolutely everyone here, and I think there's room to love
everyone and I truly think when you get people in
the same room, you have conversations, you actually have a
lot calm, with a lot in common with a lot
of people. And so I'm there to love, so there
to love biological women. And I think that there are

(25:04):
rights that need to be protected, and like I said,
I'm going to stand true to that. I'll never falter
in my beliefs in that. But I have never once
said I hated the trans community. Like I said, I
think they're space for aford one.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
There you go, I mean there is. And this is
not about and see here's the thing. So this is
the anatomy of putting together the culture war. So you
take that, you run with it. She hates the trans community.
She thinks that you know that people who identify as
women are not real women and should so you run
with that, okay. And the right is Applaudinger right, and

(25:38):
you know, and they're coming out and because then you've
got the Megan Rappinos and you had the owner, a
partial owner of the Seattle team come out and intact
little girls because little girls are showing up in support
of her because they're frustrated. Now here's the thing. Is
this really a big issue. It's not a big issue.
It isn't, but it's a good culture war. So might
as well run with how many athletes play let's say,

(26:02):
d one sports that are trans was it ten out
of five hundred thousand athletes across the board in college sports? Ten?
That's not a lot. I'm gonna tell you that right now.
I mean, that is a tiny bit, But it doesn't
mean that we shouldn't have a conversation about things in

(26:24):
a way where you have a conversation, not where you're
you're advocating in things that are not real and pushing
an agenda that is about the agenda. It's not about
the kids. You don't care about the kids. You don't
care about the kids you care and you don't even
care about the trans kids who are going through stuff.

(26:45):
These wacky activists and the whacky people out there on
the on the hardcore, they're all mentally deranged. You don't
care about You care about winning an argument, and that's
this has become. You know, yesterday at my local show,
we were talking about this. You know, because you hear
all these you know, all the all the the Republican
ads are and I'll fight to make sure that boys

(27:08):
can't play in girls' sports, and there'll be no boys
in girls you know, restrooms or locker rooms. And you're like,

Two Coming up One Hit Wonder Wednesday, Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 24 (29:16):
Welcome to Chat Show, No not the Country, the institution
is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
It is Wednesday. Not only do the white woman stuff
that we do. We also love to do this but
get your suggestions every week. You always email them to
us Chad Benson Show at gmail dot com or texting
program three two three, five, three eight, twenty four twenty three.
This is the portion of the program where we break
down a song, the song that came became a hit.

(29:44):
And sometimes these bands have massive hits and other parts
of the world and a huge career, but here they
had a hit. That's it, a hit, a singular hit,
and then poof gone forever. This is one of those
songs though that's never really gone for And yes, I'll
tell you a little hint. It's in the opening of

(30:06):
the segment.

Speaker 25 (30:08):
Now it's time for another edition of One Hit Wonder Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
You may not remember the name of the.

Speaker 26 (30:21):
Band, but you definitely know the song.

Speaker 17 (30:36):
This Bruiser.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
This is One Hit Wonder Wednesday, all right, One Hit
Wonder Wednesday, as we do every single Wednesday at this time.
This comes from an album that was released in two
thousand and three. The song itself peaked at number twenty
one on the Billboard Hot One hundred and earned a
Grammy nomination for Best Vocal Performance. And yes it is

(31:01):
in the opening right the little clip we just played there,
You're like, oh, could it be supermodel Rachel Hunter, Rod
Stewart's former wife, played Stacy's mom in the legendary video
And this song is fun. It is everything that is
a one hit wonder, No doubt about that, your one
hit wonder. Little Stacy's Mom from the Fountains of Wayne.

Speaker 27 (31:29):
St Mom scs.

Speaker 7 (31:34):
Mom, Mom, Mom, got.

Speaker 6 (31:46):
Stacy?

Speaker 27 (31:47):
Can I come over after school after we can hang
on around.

Speaker 5 (32:03):
You?

Speaker 27 (32:04):
From the Business Trips Trip.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
Is she there?

Speaker 28 (32:12):
Well?

Speaker 27 (32:12):
Is she trying to look at me?

Speaker 6 (32:14):
Sp that I used to be essay episode.

Speaker 29 (32:36):
Just me?

Speaker 2 (32:44):
So the inspiration for the songs lead singer Adam Schlessinger
got the idea from a childhood friend who announced that
he found Adam's grandmother attractive. But Grandma's got it going on,
not really a great ring, so they rewrote.

Speaker 6 (32:59):
It came out.

Speaker 2 (33:01):
If you hear it, It's got the influence of Rick
Okasik and the Cars. Even the video itself recreates a
famous pool fantasy scene from Fast Times at Ridgemont High
o Kay Sick reportedly thought that the opening sounded like
just what I needed, he thought. The band sampled it
Fountains of Wayne guitarist Chris Collingwood, initially a posed recording.

(33:21):
He said, you know what, guys, this is the novelty
song and we are gonna be permanently the Stacy's Moms.
You know, got it going on band, and you know
he's gonna take us seriously, and lo and behold he
was right. He was, unfortunately for them. Slesinger, who wrote
the title song, he also went and did some stuff

(33:44):
scoring for movies and writing things like that Thing You
Do for Tom Hanks in this movie. That Thing You
Do It earned him an Oscar nomination. He later wrote
music for Crazy ex Girlfriend Josie Cotton and the Pussycats,
the music and the lyrics for that. Fortunately, in two
Thy twenty, at age fifty two, Sucher died from COVID

(34:04):
nineteen and that was a tragedy. But they had some
hits elsewhere, and they were again an entertaining and fun band.
But there's no doubt when you think of one hit wonders,
Fountains of Wayne, Stacy's Mom ticks all the boxes. You're

(34:29):
a one hit wonder today. From the Fountains of Wayne
two thousand and three peaked a number twenty one. Stacy's mom,
what a great song. That is fun, right, and you're thinking,
oh yeah, I mean there's a summertime kind of hit.
H no doubt, no doubt about that good, fun, one
hit wonder song, which we all need. With all the
chaos and craziness going on. We're thinking of certain ideas

(34:53):
to run with and I'd gotten this suggestion on several occasions,
and you know what, I said, I'm gonna run with it,
and run with it we did. If you would like
to make a suggestion when it comes to one hit
Wonder Winnsday, feel free to do so. We do appreciate
that three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty three.
That is a text line and a voice line. You
can leave a voicemail there, love, hating, indifferent, it's all good,

(35:15):
but we always remind you on the hate. If you're
going to curse, please try to keep it to a minimum,
because then I got to go through a beep everything
out or sometimes it's just crazy and unusable and we
don't want to use. You know, if you're going to
take the time to leave me a message. At least
you could do is you know, make it so we
can play it if that makes sense. So we do
love hearing from you, though you can also tweet at

(35:36):
us and all the other stuff. We love hearing from
you right here on the Chad Beens and Show. Coming up,
our number two of the program. More on last night's
mid term madness, because it's not Monday, because it was madness?
And did the left get the big wins they wanted?
And remember, big wins in a primary are just primary wins.

(36:00):
That's it. They're not anything else. It's not a general
yet a lot of people, you know, think they are. Yeah,
oh they've got it now. We're changing now, so everybody
settled down. We're also going to have some crazy nature
stuff including watch Out for the Bison. Okay, some more
White Woman, Wednesday Urban Word of the Day, all that
and so much more. Hour number two straight ahead. This

(36:22):
is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
Are we close to a deal? When it comes to Iran?
Is the waterway open? Is everything flowing? Is it flowing?
Is what's going on?

Speaker 30 (37:06):
No wordy yet from Iranian leadership yet, but Iran has
said repeatedly it would not agree to any deal that
returns the Straight to that open, unrestricted toll freeway it
operated before this war began. Meanwhile, things remain very tense
in both the Straight of Woormus and the.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
Nearby Red Sea.

Speaker 30 (37:22):
Over night, Koothi rebels in Yemen saying they fired missiles
at a Saudi tanker in the Red Sea, after we
saw two more ships targeted.

Speaker 2 (37:29):
On Tuesday, two more ships targeted still going on. Is
a deal getting close because we hear it every day,
know that a vast majority of what they're saying is
to control the stock market and the price of oil.
It is not, in my opinion and based in what

(37:49):
Here's the thing, nothing a deal can't get done. Les,
let's back it up a little bit. Boo, it's nothing
a deal can't get done. The problem is the deal
that can get done is not a political victory for
Donald Trump. That's the reality of it. The deal that
can get done because we're in this mess because he

(38:10):
made a decision based on what the Israelis told him
needs to happen, right, because they're so close to getting
a nuclear reponor remember there was a deal in place, JCPOA.
Was it a great deal now? Was it flawed? Of course?
And by the way, they could break the deal at
any time. We've seen that. Go look at North Korea.

(38:31):
That's all I got to say. But all the deals
you want in if somebody is hell bent on doing something,
they're probably going to do it in a situation like this.
So JCPOA, there it was was torn up. Like I said,
it wasn't a perfect deal. There was a lot of
flaws in it. But the deal that can get done
now is a deal that will not be a political

(38:52):
win for Trump. And because there's no political win for Trump,
we're going to have this back and forth and back
and forth, and we're getting close, and then he'll say,
we got a deal. It's amazing, it's incredible. They've given
us everything. And then they'll come back and say, we
didn't agree to any of that stuff. So we're going
to get start stop start stop, start stop, start stop

(39:13):
for the foreseeable future. So they'll come out and say
we're really close. Everything's moving along. It's gonna be great.

Speaker 30 (39:18):
President Trump saying he believes that talks are going well
between Iran and the US saying a deal could come
later today or tomorrow. He said, quote, we're moving along
very nicely. What the deal actually entails, however, remains unclear
and no wordy yet from Iranian leadership yet. But Iran
has said repeatedly it would not agree to any deal
that returns the Straight to that open, unrestricted toll freeway

(39:40):
it operated before this war began.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
And that is all that needs to be said. That
deal is, We're going to control the Straits from now on.
You want the nuclear crap, come and take it. We
control the Straits. We're going to charge a fee. And
according to several sources, several outlets, the US has been

(40:04):
excluded from the talks to reopen the straits. That's happening
between Oman and Iran and a few others. And then
Trump said, well, well then we're gonna you know, we're
gonna make sure that nobody can come out of it.
So that's where we are. All you need to know

(40:24):
is gonna go up, gonna go down, gonna go up,
gonna go down. For the foreseeable future. Expect three point
fifty to you know, depending where you live, five dollars gas,
maybe more, unless something incredible happens and which could drop it.
But that would mean both parties would have to stick

(40:45):
to it, and as we all know, neither of the
parties seemed to stick to anything at this moment in time. Meanwhile,
last night, midterm madness went on, not midterm Monday, but
midterm madness. Here's a song about it.

Speaker 3 (41:01):
Democrats won't save you if you're drowning, they won't help
you if you are in pain.

Speaker 4 (41:11):
They'll ask you for your vote. Well, they'll tell you
they are broke provincing a lot of money to Ukraine.

Speaker 5 (41:19):
Republicans will obviously kill you, but at least you know
where they are at.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
They'll shoot you in the.

Speaker 4 (41:28):
Head, make sure that you are dead. The Democrats will
shoot you in the back.

Speaker 2 (41:33):
And this is the best team offorcy we've.

Speaker 17 (41:36):
Ever had anywhere.

Speaker 7 (41:38):
If you're a billionaire boy, if you're a.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
Billionaire, oh, I love that. That's hilarious. And why that's
a funny song because outside leading at this moment in
time in Michigan, the money spent against him was tremendous.
There's no doubt about that. They spend a ton of

(42:01):
money Apak and a bunch of others against him. But
I keep telling everybody the rise of the quote unquote
DSA and this, Oh, we're gonna be a socialist nation.
And the rise of this has a lot more to
do with the current state of affairs and the frustration
that people feel where they're looking at crony capitalism, not

(42:23):
pure capitalism, but crony capitalism. They're looking at the lip
service that the parties are sending, and then includes both parties.
By the way, you guys know that I give the
Republicans as much crap as I give the Democrats, because
both of them deserve it. And this is the same

(42:43):
thing that Trump was, which he was a bit of
a screw the system, screw the same old same, We're
sick and tired of being talk down upon. Here's our sledgehammer,
here's something different, here's an outsider. There you go. Well,
for the DSA, that's kind of what they're doing as well.

Speaker 28 (43:04):
LSA Ed's constant criticism of the democratic establishment is going
to have a much broader audience than people think. And
I just wanted to just to your point, Stephanie about affordability,
the difference for the progressive fighters that had been successful,
the most successful at every level so far, in this
country in this cycle, is that the progressives are naming

(43:26):
a villain. So they're not just talking about affordability like
the establishment Democrats are. They are saying this is a
top down fight because we're the little guy. You're the
little guy, and the villain is corporate America. The villain
is Donald Trump in corruption.

Speaker 2 (43:43):
And you heard it say corporate America. Corporate America is
not a villain in the way that I think some
uber wacky progressives think crony capitalism could be painted as
a villain, because there are many Republicans out there who
are frustrated with the crony capitalism. But most importantly independence

(44:04):
fastest growing, the fastest growing segment of the voting population
is independence. The problem is because of the monopoly that
the two parties have, we're stuck with. It's the Great
South Park, says turn Sandwich, Giant douche, and that's the
frustration that people have. That is and so right now

(44:29):
with the rise of the DSSA, which I remind everybody
you know, I just I got a tweet from somebody
a little earlier who you know, because as we talked
about this, and I talked about it yesterday the insanity
of the DSSA and the fact that if you think
that they're going to take over the globe, they're going
to take over America. It ain't happening. It isn't. And

(44:52):
somebody said on Today's Chad Benson, Joe explained how silly
it is for Democrats could be communists. Without him, I
would never know any of these things were pride for.
And they show the old Soviet Union flag. It doesn't matter.
There's twenty five people, there's three hundred people. They're calling
each other comrades. They're not taking anything over. They're LARPing

(45:14):
around as if they are part of this great movement
which the average person who even supports a lot of
the ideas of universal healthcare and you know, getting rid
of crony capitalism, etc. They don't want to see the
government run everything. They don't want to abolish prisons, right,
they don't want to abolish the police and have no borders.

(45:37):
But what they don't want is what they're seeing is
ridiculous rich getting richer, laughing at everybody as their life
gets tougher and tougher, and feeling like they get lied
to all the time. No problem with that, I think
most of us should be pissed. But the beauty is
take the extreme, which is I want to abolish prisons,

(45:57):
I want to abolish ice, I want to abolish you know, borders,
I want to you know, you take that and then
you make that the face of what you're going to
go up against. And that's what the Republican's doing. And
it's not hard to do. It's not now. Some of
these people that are running have said some stuff, tweeted
some stuff in the past that they're trying to figure

(46:19):
out how they scrub it and not talk about it
because you know, you rage bait baby, But it gives
the Republicans opportunities.

Speaker 31 (46:27):
Well, let me just begin with one of the big
differences is there's no such thing as a moderate Democrat today. Yeah,
and what the DSA has done is pulled every Democrat left.
I mean, listen, we saw it in Virginia, Charlie. We
saw that Abigail Spamberger campaigned as a moderate and the
second she got into office, she moved far left and

(46:51):
imposed real left wing policies on the Commonwealth of Virginia.
And that is the big difference, which is what's happening
in the DSA is the entire Democrat party that direction.
And I think Americans need to stand up and battle
against this, as I said, not just as Republicans, but
as Americans.

Speaker 1 (47:10):
And this is the big difference.

Speaker 31 (47:12):
We're watching a socialist insurgency into America, and we've got
to stand against it because it is truly an American I'm.

Speaker 2 (47:20):
Not a fan of socialism, not a fan of communism.
Like let's see here, hate them. Think they're ridiculous and
they're absolutely unworkable with what the lunatics in the DSA
and I call them that because they want to get
rid of police, and we want to get rid of

(47:42):
the ice, and we want to get rid of borders.
And you know that is insane. Okay, that's insane. But
the question that should be asked, and I don't hear
the Republicans asking the question. I don't hear the establishment
Democrats asking the question is why are people so frustrated
and angry? What is it that is going on that

(48:04):
is making them seek something else? And they don't ask that.
It's not hard to see, but nobody wants to hear
the answer. What do you think? Let me know, love
hearing from all of you three, two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson's show, is Your
ex your Insta, Incogniti. Your data is important. We talk

(48:24):
about it all the time. Anybody can get your data.
Go to a data broker. There are hundreds and hundreds
and god knows how many thousands probably have data brokers
all over who have your data. Data like where you work,
who you voted for, what you're gonna have for lunch,
what you had for lunch. I mean, we can go
on and on about this, and that data is out

(48:48):
there for anybody. Scammers, crazy marketers, and let's not forget
the people that want to take advantage of you. So
why not get rid of your data from them and
take back control and deal it with in Cognate and
Cogniti goes to these data brokers knowing they have to
take you off the list, and they know exactly what
to do to get you off the list, and they're

(49:09):
going to keep you off those lists so that way
your phone doesn't get hundreds of spam calls and text
messages each week. Instead it's silence because that's the best sound.
So this is what I want you to do. Go
to in Cogni dot com slash bens and you canna
save sixty percent right now, get your data off of
the web and back in your hands. That's in Cogniti

(49:30):
dot com slash bens and make sure you use code
benz that to save sixty percent. Because the best sound
of phone could make some silence, right Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (49:50):
You're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (49:53):
We talk about it here with michae lions Er military
analysts every week, and we've been talking about it for
a few years. Drone warfare is changing everything. And if
you've not seen the video, it is so bizarre and
frightening watching a man try to escape from a drone.

(50:15):
He's trying to sell something in the back of his van,
you know, like he set up a little shop there.
You know that he's got the you know, little canopy
and it looks like he's selling goods out the back
of his van. In lo and behold up shows a
drone ready to kill.

Speaker 32 (50:29):
Him, the sound of a drone, a scream, and then
a terrifying game of cat and mouse. You can see
in this video released by the Ukrainian military, a frightened
Ukrainian vegetable vendor trying to get away from that drone.
It appears to hunt him down. Then this shrapnel in

(50:52):
his back. Says I was trying to get away, but
it kept coming at me. Many would hardly know this
small drone, which Ukraine says is Russian, carried such powerful explosives.
President Zelenski calls it drone Safari Ukraine, accusing Russian forces
of hunting civilians. Here a woman on a bike is pursued.

(51:13):
She was wounded in the leg.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
It is crazy to watch dude just he's running around
the van and the thing is following him, and he's
running around, and then when he gets a beat on
him where he it catches up to him as he
goes around the front of the van to the driver's side,
and it just drops as fast as it can. Luckily,
I think it hit the van, which didn't mean it.

(51:37):
It didn't hit him, but that would have he would
have been dead. I thought he was dead. But this
is changing warfare and the difference between the AI side
of warfare with the drones that the that are much
more advanced than Ukraine compared to what they're saying this
is with this is this Safari type of jo they're
hunting for sport. It seems like.

Speaker 32 (51:58):
While Ukraine has been you using AI drones to help
reach long distances into Russia, like this attack that hit
the Kremlin's bomber fleet and Russian civilians have been killed
and wounded. This suspected Ukrainian drone hitting a packed Russian
beach Monday, three children were killed according to Russia. Now
this Ukrainian man who says he cannot understand why he

(52:20):
would be in the crosshairs of a killer drone a
new era in warfare.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
What do you think? Let me know. I love hearing
from all of you right here on the Chad Benton Show.
I think the thing about this one is watching it
from a different perspective as opposed to a lot of
the stuff, which is you see it from the drones
perspective and then it goes dark. This was just it's nuts.

(52:45):
It's a different world now, kids, So we're talking about
it's a different world with these drones. Speaking of AI,
AI pricing is getting a massive pushback as company say
they wronglling it out, but they're just testing it. But
then some people think it's actually real and they've been
doing surge pricing for years. This is just changing the

(53:09):
game so fast.

Speaker 33 (53:10):
The price you pay for let's say a flight or
even groceries might be different than what you're a coworker,
your neighbor, even family member pays for the same thing.
So experts say that retailers are just aiming to present
you with what they think the highest price is on
something that you are willing to pay.

Speaker 2 (53:28):
Because they know your habits, they know what you're willing
to spend, they know if you shop for deals or
if you don't shop for deals. They know everything.

Speaker 1 (53:35):
Critics say it's just not fair.

Speaker 33 (53:37):
They feel like it's not fair for a retailer to
determine what to charge you based on information like your
Internet browsing history, where you live, and what you've actually
paid for similar goods in the past. Now there is
the Electronic Privacy Information Center that's a nonprofit that's working
to protect people's privacy during this time, and they're saying
that this basically threatens affordability and a time, we're a

(54:00):
lot of goods and services are just more expensive than
ever and I don't.

Speaker 2 (54:04):
Think that's going to be changing soon, and AI is
not going anywhere. So now you're gonna have to figure
out how to a control your data, as well as
to talk about incognitate and b how to figure out
to shop for the best deals at prices. What matters
coming up White Woman Wednesday, among other things, This is
the Chad Benson.

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

Speaker 2 (54:45):
It is Wednesday. Wednesday means we have fun with the
white ladies.

Speaker 8 (54:50):
It's not him at the coffee bar. She's not streaming
from her car fat trait. So Brenda Ghd telling workers
what they ought to bit, let me set out your sperience,
said again over everyone got ad for every human sin.

Speaker 2 (55:09):
But fluss you if you don't shine in.

Speaker 6 (55:12):
It's white woman Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (55:14):
Oh, the white women doing what white women do, which
is tell everybody how horrible everybody is, except of course
them to break it to you.

Speaker 34 (55:21):
But if you're someone who's deeply offended by my content
as a white person, you're probably racist. Because again I
don't say all white people or every single white person
is inherently evil, especially because I'm white myself. I'm simply
speaking out about white supremacy and the way that it's
completely unacceptable to treat others as subhuman because of something
as arbitrary as their skin color. Do you guys know
how stupid you sound?

Speaker 21 (55:41):
Truly?

Speaker 34 (55:41):
That's like if I was like, oh, this person Hams
has long arms, so I don't actually want to be
friends of them because they're subhuman, or they're inherently lazy
because they have long arms.

Speaker 1 (55:50):
Which means they don't want to work.

Speaker 9 (55:51):
Like it's fucking bullshit.

Speaker 34 (55:53):
You see my content and you're really mad about it,
That means you have a lot of inner work to do.
Abop taking everything personally and instead look inside yourself and
be like, why does this make me so mad? Maybe
there is a certain area in my life where I'm
not treating people well and I know that and I
don't like being called out. Maybe I'm actively contributing to
a system of oppression in ways that I didn't realize,
and watching this content makes me uncomfortable because I know

(56:13):
that I'm contributing. Take a second and actually analyze why
that might be the case instead of projecting your hatred
onto me or onto black and brown people. The world
would be a much better place if you guys do
the inner work.

Speaker 2 (56:24):
Yes, it would be a much better place if we
just did the inner work. I'm trying to do the
inner work. But I had to be honest with you.
I don't care, Chad, that's not very what kind? No,
I just treat everybody equal to move on. I don't
break you down by race or gender, whatever the hell
you want. You have a name, we'll go from there.

(56:46):
If you're a Richard and you're a different color, you're
a Richard. If you're a Richard and you're white, you're
a Richard. I'd say the other one, but then somebody
can email me go you send the used language like that.
It's not very nice. I get it. Sometimes I could
be a little harsh, and for that I apologize. But
white ladies, thank you so much. And that's Kylie. Of course,
are our very famous white woman Wednesday leader here? And

(57:09):
can I just say all jokes aside, she's an ally
and she's doing the work, are you No. Besides that,
don't be mean to her if you find her her
insta okay, because I've gone on to defended her on
numerous occasions because you may not like what she has
to say, but she has every right to say it.

(57:30):
And it may be you know, I mean, we always
joke that I'm telling you black people here, You're like,
oh god, here she comes, here, she comes, Oh lord,
oh lord, just putting that out there. Meanwhile, did you
know the world's trying to kill us? Well, of course
you did. Where do we start here? Okay? Do we
want to start with the food? Do you want to

(57:50):
start with the text? Do we want to start with
I don't know the bison?

Speaker 1 (57:54):
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 35 (57:57):
This morning, another close encounter with a bison in yell
Hello Stone, this time with a child.

Speaker 1 (58:02):
Oh my god, children, children.

Speaker 35 (58:05):
This group walking dangerously close. But then a young boy
makes an innocent mistake.

Speaker 6 (58:11):
You're way too close.

Speaker 5 (58:13):
You do.

Speaker 6 (58:15):
My god? No, no, no, no, no, no no.

Speaker 35 (58:18):
He takes off running and the bison follows. Another tour
is catching the chase on camera.

Speaker 36 (58:23):
I'm thinking, I'll just catch a cute video of this
bison walking on the boardwalk, and then the kid ran.

Speaker 35 (58:29):
By the bison, eventually slowing down.

Speaker 36 (58:31):
Nothing else happened, and the bison kind of wandered off.
We were all kind of just trying to get our
heart rates down because we kind of expected the worst
to happen.

Speaker 2 (58:39):
Yeah, because it's a bison. I want to remind everybody
that it is a bison and the bison, I don't know,
maybe you looked at that that things that you know what,
this is gonna end up bad for me. Okay, nobody's
gonna get the full context of the video and then
I'm going to be in trouble and they're gonna want
to shoot me. So I'm not going to participate in this.
And thank God because as we know, as we've seen
with the does, and usually it's when people are stupid.

(59:03):
This was just a little kid.

Speaker 35 (59:06):
This is just the latest incident involving a bison at
the country's oldest national park. Weeks ago, shocking video of
sixty five year old grandfather Karl McDaniel being launched eight
feet in the air by one going viral. The landing
broke his femur bone.

Speaker 37 (59:19):
He just kept coming and he was more aggressive and
as soon as he got off that tree, he.

Speaker 2 (59:24):
Launched me in the air.

Speaker 35 (59:25):
Experts say even though bison may appear slow, they can
run three times faster than humans and will defend their
space when they feel threatened.

Speaker 38 (59:33):
The rule is to stay at least twenty five yards
away at this time of year, especially with males, make
that fifty yards if you see an animalist in your
path and you need to go that path, there's no
other option for you.

Speaker 2 (59:43):
Sit back and wait.

Speaker 6 (59:44):
Waiting is not going to kill you.

Speaker 2 (59:46):
Not waiting may yes, stay away if you see it bison,
and unless it's one hundred yards away and you have
an escape route, just they want no part of you.
And so it's one thing when you're in the ocean. Right,
you're in the ocean, there's sharks. Obviously you're big. We're gangly,
you know, I mean as far as just a snack

(01:00:07):
and we're a little fish. But they don't want anything
to do with this. Every once while they bite us
and something bad happens. And we know this, but that's
not our element. This is our element and it could
smush us. Okay, we just want you to be safe
out there.

Speaker 35 (01:00:20):
Bison are responsible for more visitor injuries than any other
wild animal, according to park officials and guys. They want
people to remember, this is not a zoo. These animals
are not captive, so they can do what they want
when they want.

Speaker 2 (01:00:31):
Yeah, that's right, because they're like freedom. We go from there. Okay,
two other things trying to kill us? How about food?

Speaker 6 (01:00:41):
What?

Speaker 5 (01:00:41):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:00:42):
Yeah, food because you know about the whole thing with
the cyclospora and stuff. W is there more for.

Speaker 39 (01:00:47):
Thousands of Americans who frequent the produce aisle, It's been
a summer to forget.

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
I am on day seventeen of this parasite and I'm
not having a VID time.

Speaker 39 (01:01:00):
Now confirming more than ten thousand cases of cyclospor infections
across forty seven states, and they're looking into another twelve thousand,
some of which federal officials say are linked to the
recalled iceberg lettuce supplied by Taylor Farms.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
Okay, so we got that, we know about that one,
and it's still out there and it's brutal, all right,
So it's brutal, But then you're thinking, what was there more.

Speaker 39 (01:01:25):
Ohio's health director says it's not time to avoid fruits
and vegetables altogether, but instead focus on inspecting and cleaning
the produce we buyd This.

Speaker 6 (01:01:35):
Is something to take very seriously.

Speaker 39 (01:01:37):
Meanwhile, this morning, diners in Minnesota are waking up to
a recent salmonella surge. At least one hundred and ten
cases have been identified so far, according to the state's
Health department, With jalapanos from a popular fast casual chain
to potely a main focus. State officials say eighty nine

(01:01:58):
percent of those who've gotten six mid June eight at Chipotle,
while the rest dined at other Mexican style restaurants. In
a statement, Chipotle saying they quote proactively removed the halapanos
in question and replace them with products from different growers.

Speaker 2 (01:02:16):
Oh my lord, it's all happening. It's all happening, all right,
This is what's going down. It is all happening. Everything
is trying to kill us, right from our snacks to
even the stuff that's not snacky to animals. They're all
rising up.

Speaker 39 (01:02:36):
What's the difference between salmonella and cyclosporiasis.

Speaker 38 (01:02:41):
Cyclospariasis is from a parasite, and people tend to recover
very slowly over a couple weeks time period.

Speaker 2 (01:02:46):
With salmonella, we see four hundred deaths a year.

Speaker 39 (01:02:49):
As Americans grow more weary and worried about these events,
industry experts say these recent outbreaks highlight correctible flaws in
our nation's foods supply.

Speaker 40 (01:03:01):
Every company, no matter big small, should be following very
very strict food safety procols in order to make sure
that they're not killing their customers or making their customers sick.

Speaker 2 (01:03:15):
Yeah, I would say that's a bad thing. You kill
your customers. There's a good chance you're not going to
get a good review, So everybody should be Now you're thinking,
all right, what else do you have for us? Oh,
it's not over it, because now I have to worry
about rabbit fever.

Speaker 10 (01:03:28):
This is commonly called rabbit illness, and the reason why
it's called that is because it can often be associated
with sick rabbits, but can be associated with other types
of rodents, including rats and even deer. Important to understand here,
we typically in the United States see around two hundred
or so of these cases of year, So this is
not abnormal. But what is abnormal is the rise in
the number of tick bites. The CDC data shows that

(01:03:51):
this year alone, the number of tick bites is the
highest it's been since twenty seventeen.

Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
Okay, so now there's tick bites, rabbit fever. Just give
you the lowdown of what I'm looking for, Just a
case there was a tick bite or something.

Speaker 10 (01:04:05):
It can present similar to the flue, sometimes with a fever,
swollen lymph nodes, and sometimes a wound or really a
significant bite injury from the tick or the fly that
causes the sickness and the illness.

Speaker 2 (01:04:17):
This is now. Now there's flies that have this thing.
Oh my gosh, what else should I know? Understand where
your risk is?

Speaker 10 (01:04:27):
If you live in the Northeast, the upper Midwest, even
the mid Atlantic, you were seeing these rides in the
number of ticks. And if you're in a bush area
or high grass and you want to make sure to
protect yourself long sleeves and EPA registered repellent, and you
want to make sure that you avoid abnormally behaving animals.
I know that sounds like it's an obvious factor, but
many people want to rush to help, and that can

(01:04:48):
put you in harm's way.

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
So crazy animals that look insane, ticks, flies, Let's just say,
for the sake of argument, I happen to be outdoors
and maybe I'm not sure if I got bitter. Just
is there protocols when you.

Speaker 10 (01:05:10):
Get back inside from being outside, especially if you're in
an area of high risk, you want to take your
clothes off and put them in a dryer. Studies show
that showering within two hours of getting home can also
reduce your risk. And remember, the longer the tick stays
on you, the more the risk of a tickborn illness,
not just from this but also obviously commonly lined disease
as well as other tickborn illnesses. So you want to

(01:05:30):
make sure to do a full body check that includes
your hair, the navel, between the fingers, and the toes.

Speaker 2 (01:05:37):
Again, stay indoors. Just let's just all agree the best
thing for us is to stay indoors, all right. And finally,
while didn't kill anybody, did warm our hearts. Let's have
a good animal story. Remember Neil's Seal. Well, Neil has
since coming gone. He only stays a month, as he
does every year, but sometimes he leads them destruct in

(01:06:00):
his path.

Speaker 41 (01:06:01):
Well, Neil the Seal made headlines around the world for
his mischief making during his recent stay in Tasmania. His
adorable antics were priceless. But someone has to pay for
all the damage he's left behind.

Speaker 2 (01:06:13):
Neil, Neil, what are you doing?

Speaker 21 (01:06:18):
Neil?

Speaker 6 (01:06:19):
Why are you causing Miam?

Speaker 2 (01:06:22):
Because he likes to cosmeem so Nil's and elephant Zeel
And every year he comes back, he's way bigger. They
try to keep him on the shore, but he wanders
into town and he is massive, the kind of massive
where he'll sit on your car or sink your boat
if he gets in that kind of thing. So he
comes into town and he breaks a lot of stuff

(01:06:42):
because well he's a big boy.

Speaker 41 (01:06:43):
In his latest visit, Neil received a rock star welcome
in the city of Clarence, but it seems to have
encouraged him to party like one too, racking up a
hefty damage bill of over thirty thousand dollars during his
month long stay. According to local council's received, it's for
one signed, ten bollards and a section of fence.

Speaker 2 (01:07:05):
Yeah, so Neil comes, he has fun, he destroys, he
leaves a bill.

Speaker 41 (01:07:12):
Meanwhile, the ABC is reporting the state government has also
been wearing Neil's antics, spending at least forty five thousand
dollars over the last two years. Traffic control, crowd management,
and repairs to public property were all required to keep
up with Neil's visit. The local mayor revealed staffing and
labor accounted for most of the cost, logging over one

(01:07:36):
hundred and thirty standard work hours and over one hundred
and forty four overtime hours. All has been forgiven, though
Neil has settled the account using his own payment method,
his exceptional cuteness, and the many smiles he brought to
the community.

Speaker 2 (01:07:52):
Plus a lot of people have very much enjoyed visiting
Neil from the surrounding areas and coming in and spending
money and his They they've capital You got to capitalize
on the Neil, right, you gotta do it. So there
you go, Nature doing what nature does, causing us gastro problems,

(01:08:13):
causing us the potential of getting crushed by bison. Neil,
causing us money problems, and let's not forget maybe chasing
us at a park. You gotta be careful people. Again,
Nature does what nature does and it will indeed mess
you up. Coming up Urban word of the day, relief

(01:08:35):
factor works big time. Take this instance, Chris getting a
little older, living his life. Listen to our show, start
taking relief Factor. The reason was his life. He was
just struking. He couldn't do his job the way he
wanted to. He just wasn't enjoying life. Starts taking relief Factor.
After a couple of months, he gets this hair brand

(01:08:56):
ideas I like to call and he says he does
something he thought he would never do based on all
the pain he had before. He runs a half marathon,
which is awesome. If you are in a position where
you think you have to live in pain, a vast
majority of that pain is inflammation. Relief Factor works on
the inside out. It actually tackles the root problem, the

(01:09:18):
inflammation aches and pains in your joints and muscles. Rather

(01:09:41):
the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 29 (01:09:51):
Serving up talk radio medium, rare and dripping with irony.

Speaker 1 (01:09:56):
It's Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (01:10:03):
It's always nice to know what the youth of America
is talking about, because sometimes they say stuff and we
got no idea what they're talking about. But I try
to fix that every single day by giving us a
little smidge into what it is that they're talking about.
We like to call this the urban word of the day.

Speaker 6 (01:10:20):
Now it's time for the urban word of the day.

Speaker 2 (01:10:23):
The young have a vocabulary all their own, and we
break it down for you.

Speaker 6 (01:10:28):
It's called the urban word of the day.

Speaker 2 (01:10:32):
I love this one. Slumber candy, slumber or goomies. Slumber
candy or goomies. Those are Melatonins. You're having trouble sleeping,
Maybe get yourself a little slumber candy. Could be the
other kind of candy, you know, and I'm talking about
a little thh c nit or just could be the

(01:10:53):
regular old melatonins. Give me a little slumber candy please,
because I can't sleep. Helps you out, just as Smidge
or the Goomies as they might call him in other places.
Slumber candy or goomies is your urban word of the day.

Speaker 6 (01:11:08):
That was the urban word of the day.

Speaker 2 (01:11:11):
Now, you know, are always good to know. My friends
are always good to know. Indeed, I take a slumber
candy Melotonins. I take three a night. Doesn't help me.
I just don't sleep. Doesn't matter how many I take.
I just don't sleep. Some of it has to do
with the fact that right now my cat will never
leave me alone ever. Ever, his goal is to sleep

(01:11:38):
while I'm at the other studio or golfing or running errands,
and then to stay awake because he believes he's nocturnal
and that somehow crime or something happens at night and
he must be awake for it, because at any given
time something could happen which he must leap forward and

(01:11:59):
take care of. I should give him some slumber goomies,
that's for sure. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty
four or twenty three at Chad Benson Show. Is your acts,
your Insta, your YouTube, your Facebook, and all of the
other good things that are available to you. We love
hearing from all of your radio on The Chad Benson Show.

(01:12:20):
Coming up, our number three is something making a comeback
that was big for a while and then disappeared. White
Woman Wednesday. Of course one hit Wonder Wednesday as well,
which of course we love. Plus more on Iran and
the US the Straits of Horror moves, last night's midterm

(01:12:42):
Madness primary results that are kind of in but not
in all the way. We'll discuss that as well. Reach
out to across all of our social media. We love
hearing from you tonight. We will be live on YouTube
last night. I gotta be honest, I've was up since
one in the morning and I passed out for that
I apologize. We'll be live tonight though. Catch Us is
the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:13:03):
This is the Chad Benson Show, the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:13:34):
So it looks like al said is going to win
the Democratic nomination out of Michigan, which we've been talking
about that he was probably going to be the winner.
Doesn't mean that it's official. It's just the projector that
he's going to win, and again they're probably going to
ask for a recount, doesn't mean automatically it's going to happen.
And of course for Republicans it's a dream day because

(01:13:58):
he's running against Mike Rodgers and Mike Rogers, at least
poll wise right now has a lead on Alsa Ed
that he wasn't going to have on Haley Stevens. So
for Republicans this is great because you can get out
there and pitch, hey, look it's the DSA. They're crazy.

(01:14:20):
The DSA is crazy. I mean, I'm not going to
pretend that they're not. And look, if you think that,
you're going to come in and go and say, all right,
here's the deal. We're going to get rid of the police, right,
We're gonna get rid of prisons, We're gonna get rid
of borders. We're going to do all of the I mean,
if you think that that's how you're going to win something,

(01:14:41):
you're insane, Okay, But their candidates are there for a reason.
It's the question that I think nobody's asking that should
be asked. Why does everybody feel this way? Why are
people like Olsai Ed Mandonie making noise? Why are Americans?
And the number one thing when it comes to you know,

(01:15:01):
as far as voting registration, the fastest growing party is Independence. Unfortunately,
you know, we don't have much to choose from. But
why is it that people are leaving both parties? And
why is it that people are frustrated to the point

(01:15:21):
where they're willing to go I'll take a listen to
what these people have to say. Nobody's asking that question.

Speaker 28 (01:15:28):
Ls I Ed's constant criticism of the democratic establishment is
going to have a much broader audience than people think.
And I just wanted to just to your point, Stephanie
about affordability. The difference for the progressive fighters that had
been successful, the most successful at every level so far
in this country in this cycle, is that the progressives

(01:15:49):
are naming a villain so They're not just talking about
affordability like the establishment Democrats are. They are saying this
is a top down fight because.

Speaker 16 (01:15:58):
We're the little guy.

Speaker 28 (01:15:59):
You're the little guy, and the villain is corporate America.
The villain is Donald Trump and corruption.

Speaker 2 (01:16:07):
See one of the things they're doing, which is and
I don't think you guys understand, and we've talked about
it on midterm Mondays. How good they are in the field,
how good they are on social media, how good they
are at getting out. It's not you know when when

(01:16:28):
the right talks about the lunatics of the DSA, you know,
the purple haired people, because there's a lot of that stuff, right,
I mean, we we played some of it yesterday. You know,
just stop using gendered language, you know, just they when
when they that's not going to win you anything. When
they go out on the field and they're knocking doors

(01:16:49):
and they're doing it. And I've seen more than a
few people, especially with Mundani at first, even more so
than AOC you importing to this their ground game. People
talk about the ground game they had and they would
say they showed up in suits and ties. They listened
to what I had to say. I may not agree
with all their stuff, but they they were put together,

(01:17:11):
they were clean, they were sharp, and they were there
for business because that's what you have to do if
you're gonna win anything. But one of the things they're
doing is they're pushing against the establishment and the broken system.
They see not so much about Trump. The establishment runs

(01:17:32):
on Trump, the media runs on Trump. I'm over Trump,
you guys know that. I'd rather talk about all kinds
of fun stuff. We just talked about animals. We got
Crazy White Woman Wednesday. We're doing wonder Wednesday. We're doing
all that kind of stuff. I that to me, and
and and you know, MySpace is good. We're talking about
MySpace coming back. Are you gonna rank your friends again?
We'll talk about that in a second. But the reality

(01:17:54):
of how they're approaching this isn't we hate Donald Trump.
We know they do, because anybody on the left can't
stand Donald Trump. They're saying, our side's a hot mess.
You guys have done nothing for anybody. You're broken. Now.
Both sides have a serious issue there. But I digress.

(01:18:15):
And I'm not the only one saying, Look how put
together they are. Look how they are coming at this
in a different way. You know we always talk, well,
Trump's playing check, you know, he's playing chess, but everybody
else is playing fingerpaints. No, they're really ahead of the game.
Everybody else is on a Commodore sixty four and they're
on the latest supercomputer.

Speaker 42 (01:18:37):
The revolution is being televised and podcasts and streamed and
elected tonight.

Speaker 2 (01:18:44):
Why is that.

Speaker 42 (01:18:46):
It's because there is a credibility gap that's opened up
between the Democratic Party establishment and this insurgency. People are
looking at people and they're saying, you've been telling us
the same thing for a long time, and our lives
are not even better. We got Donald Trump twice. There's
also an innovation gap. Why can you spend sixty million

(01:19:06):
dollars and get what like this? Because the old model
was you get the donors to get the consultants to
buy a bunch of ads, and you win.

Speaker 2 (01:19:16):
That's how you get attention. This movement says.

Speaker 42 (01:19:19):
I don't need donors, ads, I don't need consultants. I'm
going right to the people with TikTok and grassroots. And
they've disintermediated the entire donor classated the entire consulting class.
And this is a revolution. And so this is going
to happen again and again. The Democratic Party is now Blockbuster.
These kids are Netflix.

Speaker 2 (01:19:39):
Pay attention. I'm sorry, tell everybody pay attention. And the
right's going to scare the older voters with it's all
communism and socialism and yes, when you go look at
the DSA and their wackiness, listen to these them talk.
It's not let's take away all private property and ownership.
They're coming at this in a much different way. That's

(01:20:00):
why I tell if you guys got to pay attention
to this right, you got to pay attention. If you're
on the right and you're not paying attention to this,
you were failing. If you're not asking the question why
is there arise even amongst independents who may lean to
the right a little bit, to listen to people who
would go against the quote unquote conservative side of stuff

(01:20:22):
because they're frustrated and angry. Why Because you don't deliver.
You're more interested in finding the problem, keeping the problem going,
weaponizing the problem, as far as being able to chastise
the other side, and never delivering something a solution. And
if you do get involved, a lot of times it's
way worse. Hence the reason why there's a rise of independence.

(01:20:44):
Case in point, Todd Achilles, who's now an independent is
in Idaho, read running as it used to be a
Democrat running as an independent.

Speaker 43 (01:20:54):
You know, I think being an independent is all about
just focusing on solutions and getting this cun You're back
on track, right, Yeah, just like your previous segment. I
mean Americans out of home, it's a particular they're frustrated
with the division between the parties and they're just looking
for the people that are going to put the heads
down to the pragmatic work.

Speaker 2 (01:21:11):
And solve these hard problems.

Speaker 6 (01:21:13):
Are from the country.

Speaker 2 (01:21:15):
There you go. Solve the problems. That's the big thing
right there. Solve the problems? Can you solve the problem?
And of course you got to ask the question because
the spam burger is a real situation now. I told
democrats who are more not centrist? You know, I think
centrist kids a bad idea. You know you're centrist, So

(01:21:37):
I'm not centrist. I'm independent. There's difference. Ask me a
question about a subject, an issue, and I'll answer it.
Tell me that I can only think one direction. You're
an idiot, that's insane. But they did ask him, Hey,
d Todd Todd. We'll call you Todd Todd, just out

(01:21:58):
a curiosity. How do we know you're not a wolf
in sheep's clothing?

Speaker 18 (01:22:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 43 (01:22:04):
Absolutely, So, you know, open borders was an absolute failure.

Speaker 20 (01:22:08):
Uh.

Speaker 43 (01:22:09):
You know, the decision to run President Biden a second
time showed that there was no good decision making in
the Democratic Party at all, and that that alone is
reason to leave the Democratic Party. We've got to support
free markets, right, I mean, this idea of having big
government and big government being the solution, it's really, you know,
the way to grow this country and the way to
grow the middle class is to restore free markets.

Speaker 2 (01:22:29):
Oh well that sounds interesting. Crony capitalism bye bye. Oh yeah.
Then they go, okay, well, tell us something you don't
like about the Republican Party. Let's see where to start.

Speaker 43 (01:22:39):
You know, I think I think number one is we're
not pushing back on the corruption in this administration. Number
two is, you know, Republicans have continued to bury the
Epstein files and it's I think absolutely critical that we
bring justice there. And number three is, you know this
this Iran war has been a fundamental mistake, and particularly
the guy I'm running against, Jim Reisie's chair of the

(01:23:00):
Foreign Relations Committee, has looked the other way as we've
slid into what's now I think one of the most
disastrous foreign policy, foreign policy events we've been into in
the history of the country.

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
Yeah, I agree. He's an independent. Todd A Kill is
his name. He's an Idaho. I like what he has
to say. I don't vote in Idaho, but you never know,
maybe I could, Maybe they'll let me. I'm I'm katting
settle down there. Common sense has jumped the ship. We
replaced it with culture war fights that have very little

(01:23:36):
to do with everyday issues that most Americans are going for,
and crony establishment capitalism and lobbying that dominate our political class.
That is frustrating. Speaking of Iran real quick, just to
let you guys know, negotiations are ongoing. Who's winning.

Speaker 37 (01:23:55):
This just comes down to negotiations and what the US
is willing to concede are not conceived because it's obvious
I think to all that the Iranians are going to
keep control of the straight up pourmous unless they're forcibly
basically pushed off that position, and that can only be
done really by the US military.

Speaker 2 (01:24:15):
And do we think, because that's not going to be
simple and easy. And think about this for a second.
If you're going to do that, you're going to have
to what. You have to stay there, you gonna have
to occupy it, you're gonna have to escort, You're going
to have to put men in women's lives in danger
on a daily basis. This will go down as one

(01:24:36):
of the biggest disasters of our military as far as
not because the debts got willing there is no more,
but because of judgment three two, three, five, three eight,

He was gonna give them ten million dollars because of
the whole thing with the See where we're going with
this great it's great, Look, it's it's it's entertainment, right.
Just a few things trending in the magical world of
the Internet on this beautiful Wednesday, right here on the
Chad Benson Show, It's Entertained with Kids, Ted Cruz trending,

(01:29:13):
Kiev trending. Sebalanca supports WTA's genetic sex testing for fairness,
which of course will make her now an enemy to
this whatever state of bizarreness. I guess in reality and
the Parentz Hilton thing, though, it shows you the power

(01:29:35):
of you know, pop culture and how big of an
influence that pop culture has in our life. I mean,
this guy melted down last night and was hacking himself.

Speaker 13 (01:29:48):
It was my children, Oh shoot me, mothers.

Speaker 2 (01:29:56):
The police are here, and that's because people had call
and say, hey, this guy on alive is doing this,
and the cops showed up and eventually he was taken
to the hospital.

Speaker 16 (01:30:09):
Okay, latest update on Price Hilton. It appears he has
been taken by ambulance. He is alive. This is my
third update, so you can tune into the last two
updates for a full recap. But he was on TikTok live.
Very disturbing video. Appear to have been self harming. I
describe it as a scene out of the movie Carrie.
It was very, very disturbing. I don't recommend you watch it.

Speaker 2 (01:30:32):
Yeah, don't watch it. It was disturbing. So it's just tough.
You're watching human being meltdown in front of the world,
which is what apparently we tend to do nowadays, is
we want to take it to the interwebs and meltdown.
There's a difference between being vulnerable and having an episode.
And last night dude had an episode, no doubt about that.
Coming up, we got a little what him wonder coming

(01:30:52):
up today as well, because it is Wednesday. Some white
woman Wednesday. Much about this stuff on the way.

Speaker 1 (01:30:57):
This is the Chad Benson check, the Chad Benson Show,

(01:31:21):
the Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:31:24):
It's about the algorithms. But my Space is making a comeback,
and one of the big pitches is no algorithms. It's
not going to be designed to keep you trapped there.
What well, then, why would anybody go there? Because it
could be interesting. Maybe we're done with Facebook and the

(01:31:46):
insta and all that kind of stuff. Maybe we're not.
Maybe it's a little nostalgia, it's a little bit of that.
Maybe I want to dust off my top eight. I
don't know. But the algorithm thing is going to be interesting.
That's one of the things they're trying to really push
is there's no algorithms. It's not designed to capture you,

(01:32:07):
anger you, any of that stuff. A little bit more
customizable as it was before. And remember the music and stuff.
You go and talk to a lot of stars, Adele
being one of them, saying, look, this launched me. So
they had about two hundred thousand users consistently a few
years ago. They're up to six million. Remember people used

(01:32:28):
to hire people to make their MySpace page for them,
So this will be again interesting. You know nostalgia. Is
there gonna be some fun stuff there? Probably? Will it work?
Will it capture an audience? If you got reels, it will.

(01:32:51):
If you got reels, we'll find out because people want
to watch video. We know that. Meanwhile, speaking of algorithms,
it's live at a White Woman Wednesdays. The white progressives
tell us all the things that we do wrong, and
we love it.

Speaker 7 (01:33:07):
Hi, I'm Kylie.

Speaker 34 (01:33:08):
And white people hate anti racist white people more than anything.
There are three reasons not white people who speak out
against other white people are punished. Number one, white supremacists
clearly know that what they're saying behind closed doors is
going to be aired out publicly. The thought of being
called out by someone who looks like them, who was
the same heritage as them, and who staunchly stands against
that is incredibly humiliating for them and also is an

(01:33:29):
attack fundamentally on their identity. Number two, white people who
speak out against racism are closely aligning themselves with people
of color, and in doing so, white supremacists interpret that
as a sort of switching sides or as betraying white people,
because again, they see the world in a very hierarchical
black and white sort of way. So to say something
positive about a black or brown person is to say

(01:33:49):
something fundamentally negative and evil about white people. And number three,
white supremacy is their entire personality. So when they see
a white person speak out against white supremacy and doing
well in other areas of their life forces them to
confront the reality that they have absolutely nothing going on
other than their skin color. They have no passions, and
they certainly don't have any walth or influence in society,
Otherwise they wouldn't need to put other people down.

Speaker 2 (01:34:10):
WHOA, I didn't know that. That's a lot going on there.
Appreciate you doing the good fight for us, I really do. Ah,
Katie still stock, see you later.

Speaker 1 (01:34:19):
Oh what do you want for a bad day?

Speaker 18 (01:34:23):
I want the global downfall of white supremacy. I want
reparations paid to the black and brown and indigenous community
for the continued genocide against their people. I want white
people to learn history and sit with the uncomfortableness of
it every single day. I want white people to take
steps to being anti racist and know that if you

(01:34:45):
really want to be anti racist, you're going to be
on that path till the day you die. And it's
going to be uncomfortable, but you're going to create a
better future. I want white people to be actively anti racist,
an active allies, not performative ones, my self included. Everyone

(01:35:08):
should want that.

Speaker 2 (01:35:10):
Wow not performative. Remember, I know it sounded performative from her,
but it wasn't. But it felt very It felt like
you were performing. And I'm going to stop stop racism
by being anti racism, being pro nido Jamee. Oh, how

(01:35:38):
about one more because we're going to talk a bit
about it.

Speaker 19 (01:35:44):
This jersey used to represent someone I respected as an athlete.

Speaker 2 (01:35:50):
I don't know if you guys are where this person
is trans and they're talking about Sophie Cuttingham, you can
start over again.

Speaker 19 (01:35:55):
This jersey used to represent someone I respected as an athlete.
Today it represents something I can't support anymore. Sports have
the power to bring people together. But when someone uses
their platform to demonize or marginalize and already vulnerable community,
I have to decide where I stand. So today I'm
not burning a person. I'm burning my support. As a

(01:36:16):
trans woman. I've spent years fighting just to exist authentically.
I won't spend a dollar, or another minute or another
ounce of energy, supporting people who contribute to making that
fight harder. This isn't about hate. It's about accountability. My money,
my attention, and my support are things people earn, not
things people are entitled to. If standing up for the

(01:36:38):
trans community cost me a jergy, that's a cheap price
to pay. Choose empathy, choose respect, choose humanity.

Speaker 2 (01:36:48):
Thank you. Ah, yeah, that is so they're all mad.
It's Sophie, Sophie Cunningham, who is very popular because Sophie
did an expos a thing for ESPN, and one of
the things was about men playing and biological men. Think

(01:37:08):
about whatever it is you want to be. You're whatever
it is. I don't care if you're a you know,
you're a sun Bear, whatever it is. But biologically, under
the hood, you're still a dude. You were raised a dude,
and the advantages are there. It's just and and Sophie,
who is not only a great protector of women's sports
she likes to talk about, but also great protector of Realistically,

(01:37:31):
she's kind of Caitlin Clark's, you know protector. You go
and look through history hockey being great. When Wayne Gretzky
had Marty McSorley if you touched Wayne, you answer to Marty,
and it's kind of become that way with Sophie. That's
how you know it's become. And Sophie's also very very
much in the public eye. She loves doing the tiktoks,

(01:37:52):
and she loves doing all of this stuff. You know
what I'm saying. So she said some stuff okay, which
of course angered the activist, and the activists then turned
on anybody was supporting, including a couple young girls who
go to a Seattle game and while they're at the

(01:38:16):
Seattle game, one of the co owners goes and insults
these young girls and attacks them. Essentially, it's crazy. Now
you're thinking of yourself, Chad. Sophie must have come out
and absolutely just throttled the trans community, talked about how

(01:38:36):
evil they are, how bad they are, how much hate
now now now it's not what happened. Sophie backed it
up on.

Speaker 7 (01:38:45):
That same vein and that story with ESPN.

Speaker 20 (01:38:47):
You talked about wanting to protect young girls who shouldn't
have to go against biological men. Just can you expand
your viewpoint on that? I mean, I think I said
what I said.

Speaker 22 (01:38:54):
I think it's kind of common sense and I think
I'll always believe in that.

Speaker 21 (01:38:59):
I think it's really born.

Speaker 22 (01:39:00):
To protect children, and that's little girls who are also
involved in that category. And so I stand on what
I said and I always believe that.

Speaker 7 (01:39:10):
Do you see your advocacy on that like taking any
form going forward?

Speaker 21 (01:39:13):
You know, I don't know. I didn't.

Speaker 22 (01:39:15):
I'm not a very political person, but I do have beliefs,
I have morals, and I'll always stand on those and
be true to true to who I am. And I
think people are going to take it how they want
to take it.

Speaker 21 (01:39:25):
But I've never even really said anything about that.

Speaker 22 (01:39:27):
And so when it comes just to protecting young girls
in sport and women in sport, I feel very strongly
about that. I think that's why you have Title nine,
That's why you have some of the greats in women's sports.
If Title nine and women's sports weren't protected, then you
wouldn't hear about any type of women in sport.

Speaker 21 (01:39:44):
And so I think in the future it's just really
important to protect.

Speaker 2 (01:39:48):
Are you sure? Are you positive? Are you any She
comes out and says, look, I'm I love everybody. I
don't want to hurt anybody. It's not what it's about
it's about protecting young girls and women in sports. And
of course then it became the culture war, right, you

(01:40:10):
got the bunch of people out there, was it Klay Travis,
I'll give a I'll give was it the fever or
was it the Seattle team or somebody ten million dollars?
They could be a high school basketball team, you know,
and you're like, see this is where it goes because
you know they're not going to take it, and you
know it's it is frustrating. Now there is a trans

(01:40:32):
player in France that everybody wants to who want to
see him her, They then whatever come over and dominate
and they want them to it. Just go sign this
person so we can want It's just so ridiculous. You
can't have a conversation, and then what happens is people
lose their mind and then we en end up situation.

(01:40:53):
We have this bizarre culture war when we should say, look,
we can have empathy, we can have sympathy. We can
also live in reality. Shouldn't be that hard. But I
also understand we live at a time where culture wars
and algorithms they do a lot and they push a lot.
But you can have some empathy. You can have some

(01:41:13):
understanding and you can also say, but I do live
in reality and when it comes to athletics, here's the
reality of it all. What do you think? Let me
know three two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four to

(01:43:15):
massive hits and other parts of the world and a
huge career, but here they had a hit. That's it,
a hit, a singular hit, and then poof gone Forever.
This is one of those songs though that's never really
gone forever. And yes, I'll tell you a little hint.
It's in the opening of the segment.

Speaker 25 (01:43:37):
Now it's time for another edition of One Hit Wonder Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (01:43:48):
You may not remember the name of the.

Speaker 26 (01:43:50):
Band, but you definitely know the song.

Speaker 2 (01:44:04):
This Bruiser. This is one Hit Wonder Wednesday. All right,
one Hit Wonder Wednesday, as we do every single Wednesday
at this time. This comes from an album that was
released in two thousand and three. The song itself peaked
at number twenty one on the Billboard Hot one hundred
and earned a Grammy nomination for Best Vocal Performance. And

(01:44:28):
yes it is in the opening right the little clip
we just played there, You're like, ooh, could it be
Supermodel Rachel Hunter, Rod Stewart's former wife, played Stacy's mom
in the legendary video. And this song is fun. It
is everything that is a one hit Wonder, no doubt
about that. Your one hit Wonder. Little Stacy's Mom from

(01:44:51):
the Fountains of Wayne Mom.

Speaker 27 (01:45:00):
And she see's mom has got it coming on.

Speaker 21 (01:45:05):
You see he's mom.

Speaker 2 (01:45:06):
He's got it going on. You see he's mom, He's got.

Speaker 19 (01:45:11):
It going on.

Speaker 6 (01:45:13):
Spacy.

Speaker 27 (01:45:14):
Can I come over after school? The boot?

Speaker 19 (01:45:19):
After school?

Speaker 27 (01:45:21):
We can hang on around a book.

Speaker 17 (01:45:25):
Boo boo boo, hang out a school.

Speaker 6 (01:45:29):
Did your mom get back from your business? Trap?

Speaker 42 (01:45:34):
Business trap?

Speaker 6 (01:45:37):
Is she there or is she trying to get me?

Speaker 27 (01:45:40):
The slip came, you know, not do a little boy
that I used to be. Oh no, no, blady, can
you stay?

Speaker 6 (01:45:52):
Says mom? Shot she's a.

Speaker 17 (01:45:58):
Wait at the sun.

Speaker 2 (01:46:10):
So the inspiration for the songs lead singer Adam Schlessinger
got the idea from a childhood friend who announced that
he found Adam's grandmother attractive. But Grandma's got it going on,
not really a great ring, so they rewrote it. If
you hear it, it's got the influence of rick O
Kaseik and the Cars. Even the video itself recreates a

(01:46:33):
famous pool fantasy scene from Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
O kay Sick reportedly thought that the opening sounded like
just what I needed. He thought. The band sampled it
found Wayne guitarist Chris Collingwood initially a posed recording. I said,
you know what, guys, this is the novelty song and
we are gonna be permanently the Stacey's Moms, you know,
got it going on band, and you know it's gonna

(01:46:56):
take us seriously, and lo and behold he was right.
He was, Unfortunately for them. Slesinger, who wrote the title song.
He also went and did some stuff scoring for movies
and writing things like that Thing You Do for Tom
Hanks in this movie That Thing You Do It earned
him an Oscar nomination. He later wrote music for Crazy

(01:47:17):
ex girlfriend Josie Cotton and the Pussycats, the music and
the lyrics for that fortunately in two thy twenty at
age fifty two, such as you died from COVID nineteen
and that was a tragedy. But they had some hits
elsewhere and they were again an entertaining and fun band.
But there's no doubt when you think of one hit wonders.

(01:47:38):
Fountains of Wayne, Stacy's Mom ticks all the boxes. You're
a one hit wonder today from the Fountains of Wayne
two thousand and three peaked at number twenty one. Stacy's Mom.

(01:48:01):
What a great song. That is fun, right, And you're thinking,
oh yeah, I mean there's a summertime kind of hit,
no doubt, no doubt about that, A good, fun, one
hit wonder song, which we all need. With all the
chaos and craziness going on. We're thinking of certain ideas
to run with and I've gotten this suggestion on several occasions,
and you know, what I said, I'm gonna run with it,
and run with it we did. If you would like

(01:48:22):
to make a suggestion when it comes to One Hit
Wonder Wednesday, feel free to do so. We do appreciate that.
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four twenty three.
That is a text line and a voice line. You
can leave a voicemail there. Love, hating and different. It's
all good, but we always remind you on the hate.
If you're going to curse, please try to keep it

(01:48:42):
to a minimum because then I got to go through
a beep everything out. Or sometimes it's just crazy and
unusable and we don't want to use you know, if
you're gonna take the time to leave me a message,
at least you could do is, you know, make it
so we can play it, if that makes sense. So
we do love hearing from you, though you can also
tweet at us and all the other stuff. We love
hearing from you right here on the Chad Benson Show.
Another solid fun show. Today, let's go over the things

(01:49:05):
we talked about, Iran midterms, animals, nature, One Hit Wonder,
White Woman Wednesday, AI and the pricing models, flock cameras.
I mean, guys, who else is this crazy? And let's
not forget the insanity of the WNBA, and they're run

(01:49:26):
to irrelevance. No matter how relevant they have a chance
to be, they continue to run at irrelevance and insanity.
You guys have a blessed and amazing rest of your Wednesday.
We got you over the hump, will do it again
tomorrow as always, Night night Jack.

Speaker 1 (01:49:46):
This is the Chad Benson Show.
