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

Speaker 2 (00:14):
It is happening set day for the first time. Mark
Zuckerberg is facing a jury trial for Meta What game changer?
Potentially changing everything? What I last heard fifteen plus one

(00:36):
hundred lawsuits out there, fifteen hundred waiting to find out
how this goes. Now, this lawsuit, I'm going to remind you,
guys what this one is about. This is not about
the content. A lot of people think it's about the
content that's on Insta, that's on Meta and that's on
you know, all of the This is not about that.
TikTok has already settled, Snapchat settled. This is not about content.

(01:02):
This is about is your platform and the way that
it's designed, regardless of what content is on there, but
the actual design of the algorithms, the scrolling, the features.
Is it harmful? Did you design it to be addictive? Interesting?

(01:32):
Of course they did. Of course they did. That's what
they do. That's what you do. You want your product
to be addictive. How big of a trial is this.
I'm told you guys this last week and the week
before that, this trial is well, it's our generation. Even

(01:53):
though I mean I was around for the tobacco lawsuit,
I didn't smoke tobacco, still never have. But that was
you know, that was a younger generation like myself, even
though we went through it like I'm a younger generation.
But you know, that was kind of the Baby Boomers
and the Greatest generation. That was their issue. This is

(02:13):
our issue of the gen x's, the millennials and the alphas.
And the question is is it their fault that it's addictive?
You designed it to be that way. And again, this
is not about content, this is about the features. And

(02:35):
they're going to argue, yeah, this girl, she already had issues,
so we can't be held responsible that she had issues.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
They're pointing out KGM, and that's the name for the
nineteen year old who was the plaintiff in this case.
They're pointing at M'm saying, yes, there could be some
negative things about social media, but let's talk about her
that before she got into social media, she had already
had a therapist, there was already issues with her. Announced
what caused a lot of the mental and physical issues
that she's arguing with not social media.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
And that's hard to argue against. I mean, and that's anything.
You know, we were talking yesterday about the the Georgia
trial going on with the dad who gave his kid,
who was mentally disturbed, a gun, who had searched things

(03:33):
like how to kill your father, who had sent text
messages saying if anything happens, the blood's on your hands.
I mean his dad gave him the gun. He had issues.
So you know, the responsibility though is who allowed her?
Where were your parents in this situation? Is what people

(03:54):
are going to say. Why didn't your parents pay more
attention to the rabbit hole that you may be going
down when it comes to social media. So this is
a massive story because of social media itself and what
may be coming if they're found responsible.

Speaker 4 (04:20):
For this.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Like I said, there's over fifteen plus hundred lawsuits waiting
out there. And if you don't think I mean right
in this And it's interesting enough that this as we
talk about this that yesterday Baarn, the German pharmaceutical and
Agricultural Couldntnglamorate as they call it, tried to resolve their

(04:46):
nightmare over roundup. Oh yeah, that's going on. You hear
those commercials, right, You can start hearing commercials too. If
this thing is indeed a win for the Plaintif you'll
start hearing the same commercials. Those commercials here for roundup,

(05:07):
like do you or do somebody know got cancer and
maybe use you know, weed killer at one time? Well,
you know roundup, Well you may be you know, able
to get damages. And you're gonna hear the same thing
when it comes to do you or somebody you know
struggle with addiction to Instagram and meta, Well you may

(05:27):
be able to get damages. So Baron tried to settle
yesterday and they proposed seven billion dollars in their cancer
roundup weed killer lawsuit. So this is I mean, this
is a massive deal. Plus, we all use social media.
We pretend like we're not going.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
To use it, but we do.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
I use it every single day. I know a lot
of you do as well. So while we talk about
the algorithms and what they push on you, this isn't
about that. It's about how the algorithms were set up
to get you to continue to stay on the devices

(06:11):
and on the Insta in the TikTok and the snapchat
and everything else. Let me know what to think three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show,
is your ex your Insta all those other things. Like
I just said right there, speaking of the inter webs,
ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, friends of all ages.
Did you not see And if you haven't, I posted

(06:33):
it on my ex the Chinese New Year and they're
big celebrations. This did a big celebration the other day.
It's you know, everybody's celebrating as the whole. You know,
it's it's a big deal. It's like they're Super Bowl.
It's like a billion people watching. And what do they have?
They have robots that come out. Now you're thinking to yourself.
When I first saw it, my first thought is in Abriel,

(06:54):
that's Ai. It's gotta be Ai. It's got to be
I mean, first of all, why deactivate?

Speaker 5 (07:01):
Why are we teaching the robots ung fu? How could
that possibly end well for anyone?

Speaker 2 (07:06):
And yeah, they were doing kung fu among other things.
So it was four robots and it was fascinating to
watch this because, like I said, I thought it originally
it had to be Ai. A double triple quadruple checked
because in this day and age, as fast as Ai
is moving, as great as Ai is, you, you know,

(07:27):
you can't trust anything, right, So you got a double
triple check and then even at that point in time,
quadruple check, and it just looked like it. I mean,
you know from where we were. You remember those robots
you see from like Boston Dynamics. The thing would come
out and then it would try to go up a
stair and then it would fall over, and then it
would get up again, and then it's like it conquered
the stairs. This was not that. This was full on

(07:52):
choreographed kung fu, including when it turned around the four
of them and ran to the wall and then ran
up the wall and did a flip.

Speaker 6 (08:04):
Yeah, they're not working out moves on the fly. It's
all programmed in. It's just repetition. That's why they were
all perfectly sync. They all make the moves perfectly because
they're robots. It's AI and that's how it works.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
That is how it works. I get how it works,
and yes it's AI, but it's not so much the
repetition and that kind of stuff what you program in
it is the fluidness. To me, that stood out because
there was no it looked like a person as far
as the fluidness and moves compared to what we think

(08:40):
about when we see these robots that seem to be
kind of clumsy and goofy, and you know, one day
this will be in your home. Yeah, but they can't
put a dish away yet.

Speaker 5 (08:52):
You'll see some funny videos.

Speaker 6 (08:54):
Is the one that's been passed around quite a bit
of a robot one of them running right into a
mirror because it was so autonomously moving about the house,
but it had not been programmed how to handle a mirror.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
And that's what we think of when we think of
these things. If you've not seen it, go to my
Insta or go to my Twitter and check it out.
It is fascinating, it is scary, and it is amazing.
Now AI, and we've talked about this, China is ahead

(09:26):
in the domestic AI world. In my opinion, the robots,
they're going to dominate the robotic world for a while
the day to day being able to use it. They've
also controlled in a much better way that they don't
want it obviously, to put their nation in a situation

(09:48):
where men aren't working and all of a sudden, you've
got what a real problem. So they're ahead in that.
We're way ahead in the actual militarization of AI. Now
we're We're also dominant in the fact that we have

(10:08):
all the best AI companies. We've got the alphabet companies
right Anthropic and you've got Open Ai and all of
these you know companies that are amazing. So we're ahead there.
But when it comes to robots in this I mean,
it is fascinating. If you've not seen it, you just

(10:30):
go check it out. At Chad Benson Show. That's your
ex You're gonna sit back and go, Okay, that's got
to be A. It's not AI. It's not it looks
like AI. You kind of want it to be AI because,
as that guy said in that little laughing thing there,
who's teaching them kung fu? What can go wrong? Everything
can go wrong. We are running at our demise. Oh

(10:54):
geez three two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four to
twenty three At Ched Benson Show, that is your INSTA
Happy Wednesday, hope all is well with you. A lot
of stuff to get to today, including some we're going
to talk about. We got White Woman Wednesday and One
Hit Wonder Wednesday, which is amazing. But yesterday I got
home in time to watch a bit of the Champions League,

(11:16):
which is soccer. I'm got the World Cup and everything
coming up here and what took place yesterday in Portugal
between Benfica and Real Madrid in Real Madrid star was
just sickening, and we're going to talk about it in
this modern day and age. I was like, what the blank?

(11:40):
I would say more forceful, but we can't because of
the radio and stuff, and we'll getting totally in trouble.
We don't want that, so we're talking about that. And
of course we've got your Olympics all the other good
stuff today, so reach out to us. Love hearing from
each and every one of you. Relief factor is incredible.
Those robots don't need relief factor, but you and I
we may need relief factor. In fact, I lifted a
lot away. It's early this morning, so yes, my relief factor.

(12:03):
I take it every day. I made sure we are
ready to roll today because I don't want to be
in a lot of pain. And guess what, I'm not
going to be thanks to relief factor, which is awesome.
It is natural. You could take it every single day.
Many listeners who are listening now, you guys have tried
it and you're you know you're sending me text like
Brian's like, look dude, I was gonna quit my job
and have to do something else. But now because the

(12:24):
Relief Factor ninety percent of my issues with my back gone.
It is. It really helps with things like day to day,
especially as you get older. It helps with the inflammation
and your muscles, especially if you over exert yourself. So
this is what I want you to do. Try a
three week quick start a relief Factor. It's gonna make
a three fatty asses where it's veratrol, all this amazing

(12:44):

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

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Is that time of the program We head across the
world to Milano, Midlan. That's right, Cortina. It is an
Olympic time. The Olympics are in full effect, big day

(13:34):
of the Olympics, including the hockey. So the hockey, all right,
we're into it. We've got men's round robin. When it
comes to curling women's round robin, we've got freestyle aerials,
but hockey quarterfinals Slovakia, Germany, Canada, Chechia, Finland, Switzerland and

(13:56):
USA taken on the speds, which you'll be interesting. One
of the other things that's going on there is we
always say this, what sport could we do?

Speaker 8 (14:05):
Well?

Speaker 2 (14:06):
One woman is tackling that over there, she's taking on
you know, the sports as an average, out of shape person.

Speaker 9 (14:16):
It should be mandatory for every Olympic sport to have
one unathletic average person compete alongside the Olympians, just to
give us some perspective. And you know what, this heer
age of matters into my own hands and decided that
I would be that unathletic person. So welcome to my series,
the out of Shape Olympics. And today we're doing some
speed skating. As usual for the out of Shape Olympics,
we start over confident and as the whizzle blows, we

(14:36):
are quickly humble. Now, speed skating, like many other winter events,
truly embodies the true spirit of the Winter Olympics, which
is making hard things significantly harder as well as more
dangerous and you know what, I am truly impressed because
there aren't many ways to make a five hundred meter
sprint dangerous, but strapping knives to the bottom of everybody's
feet definitely does it. But with that all being said,
I was still delusional enough to think that I was

(14:56):
actually gonna be good at this one. And then it's
because despite this video, I do know how skate, but
skating in speed skates is a completely different ballg Your
edges are different, the way you push is different. So
I go into this thinking I'm gonna get these amazing
and cool shots, you know, getting low going around the corner,
when in reality I just got lapped four times by
a group of small kids. Literally, these last few shots
here are me going around the rink by myself because
I was the only one who had yet to finish

(15:18):
the race. I have cut this video down significantly because
I'm trying to spare you but also spare me the embarrassment.

Speaker 4 (15:24):
Yeah it was.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
It's a different world the speed skates, you know. Playing
She's Canadian, so she's talked about as she skated since birth.
She knows speed skates. Different world, absolutely different world, I
will tell you. Though she did the skeleton three, two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chadbentson Show, is your
ex your Insta, your YouTube, Facebook and more love hearing
from all of you right here on the Chad Benson Show.

(15:50):
And she got up to ninety five kilometers what about
seventy miles an hour or so a little bit more
than that? That was insane. That would be I mean,
it's the head first one. I'm sorry, I'm doing luge,
so we talked about yesterday. But good on her. We
got she's gonna do ski jumping too, which I'm curious
to watch one of the other cool stories because as

(16:12):
we joke about, could you do one of these things?
The Winter Games gives you the opportunity, maybe if you're
somewhat athletic, to try something like the skeleton, right, if
you want to do that, if you're brave enough or
and it's about competing, right, it's about doing something overcoming.
Case in point, doctor, are you ready for this? Doctor,

(16:33):
Regina Martinez Lorenzo of Mexico, Okay, right, she clicked skis in.
At twenty eight, she did a medical internship in Minnesota
for five years. At thirty three, she went to Miami,
became a Miami based er doctor, and she is now
Mexico's first female cross country skier to compete at the Olympics,

(16:54):
which is cool. Apparently she had to take up dog
walking to help pay for her train, and you know,
so it's one of those things where you could potentially
learn something like that if you're fit, because she was
young and fit, right, Like, I'm not doing that. I'm not.
If you want me maybe to try going down the

(17:14):
bob sled maybe, but at that point in time still
no nah nah, But that right there is a cool
story and took it up later in life. And while
she didn't meddle, she did cross the finish line and
it's an Olympian. Gotta love that. That's a hell of
a story. Put that on your resume. If you're missing

Oh there you go. You know what you did here?

Speaker 10 (19:10):
Men?

Speaker 2 (19:15):
What's that?

Speaker 5 (19:15):
Oh it's it.

Speaker 2 (19:16):
It's penis repellent. Oh God, not a sister there either.
By the way. Not a sister. There, just white women
angry at the world, pissed off. I get it, you're angry.
We get it, all right, I'm just having a little
fun with you. Okay, just settle down there. It was
just I it's against fast has them, It's against this.
It it just it is so so hilarious. Let's continue

(19:40):
in our fun. How about this one.

Speaker 13 (19:42):
Trump supporters cannot be trusted with children. Every single Trump
supporter is a pedophile defender. Every single Trump supporter has
proven to you that they will support and defend a
pedophile over a child. Your children are not safe with them,
and don't don't don't bean suit me in the comments.
I'm not saying all Trump supporters are pedophiles. I'm saying
every single one of them has proven to you that

(20:05):
they will support and defend a pedophile over a child.
If they were watching your child and your child and
came to them and told them somebody was abusing them,
you cannot trust that person to believe the child to
do anything about it. Your children are not safe with
Trump supporters.

Speaker 5 (20:21):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
So wait, I just want to go over this again.
They're not pedophiles, and you don't want to say they're pedophiles,
but they're protectors. I'm just I'm trying to I'm working
it all out. Oh look, I'm not going to make
an excuse for this. You guys know how I feel
about the Epstein stuff. Werena talk about a little bit later.
Trump's in a lot of trouble. This thing isn't going anywhere.
I continue to say that over and over again because

(20:44):
the more that you say, don't look here, the more
people are going to look here. And several polls are
out and they're all pointed to the thing that I
told you was going to happen months ago. Once it
got into the American like you know, pop culture psyche,
where it started to become more salacious, it also started

(21:08):
and I'm not just talking about the the you know,
the horrific crimes that happened, but I'm talking about it
became something that was, you know, like with what we
have this obsession with murder, you know, murder porn if
you will, on all these ID channel and whatnot. Once
it became something like that, then it went from an

(21:29):
area that Trump could control in the political world. In
some ways too, it was part of you know, now
it became you know, this almost entertainment. And he's not
going to control that. There's no way he was, so
just putting that back out there. We'll talk about a
little bit later. So but you know, there you go,

(21:50):
little white woman. I got plenty more of him, Don't
you worry, don't you worry. Oh and I got a
white woman. Maggu ladies here. She's crazy. She's crazy, funny
in a sense that she seems a little unhinged. That
being said, yesterday, got excited, got home right from a
hard day's work up from like midnight the night before.

(22:11):
I thought, I go home watch a little soccer because
the Champions League was on. So I'm watching Gualazzo and
I'm watching the Benfica Reale game. So Benfica Portuguese rail Madrid,
the great Spanish side led by Imbape and Venetius Junior,

(22:36):
who is Brazilian, who is black, who scored a hell
of a goal.

Speaker 5 (22:41):
Venetius Junior.

Speaker 15 (22:43):
I'd say it is a sid six school goal from
Vinicius Junior, the match bender on Saturday. That's five coals
and his lost six games.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
After he scored, he celebrated. They gave him a yellow card,
which I was shocked by. This Subbury did take a
shirt because if you take a shirt off and stuffy,
they you know, they give you a yellow card. He
didn't do any of that, but he celebrated. And while
they're getting ready to line up again, a player from
the other team did something.

Speaker 15 (23:16):
There's a suggestion that there will thinks some racist comments
here and you can see what Paranicia Junior wants to
happen here. He wants everybody off the field. Prestiani, the
Argentine who turned twenty just a couple of weeks ago,
has SAIDs from beneath his shirt and insult.

Speaker 2 (23:39):
Which is beyond the payout. Yes it was, so he
pulls his shirt up over his mouth. And from what
I understand and what others on the field are saying,
is he called him a monkey on several occasions. Venetius
Junior runs over the referee and says to him what happened.

(24:01):
The referee then puts his arms into like an ex formation,
and they pulled the team off because of racial abuse,
and it starts to get heated. What we're hearing is
they called him a monkey on several occasions. His teammates
are denying that, but several players on real Madrid said no, no,

(24:23):
they that happened, right. I look, you covered your face
and said something to him. You didn't want people to
see it. It wasn't like, hey, can we be best friends.
There is no room in any sport for this, and

(24:44):
soccer has a problem. Veneti's junior is gonna be one
of the stars of the World Cup and there is
no place for this. In fact, every time afterwards he
touched the ball, the fans jeered him. Okay, so they
jeered him every time he touched the ball. When they

(25:05):
pulled the Argentinian kid off, you know, as a substitute.
Later in the game, the crowd gave him a massive
standing ovation. When he goes over to take a corner
cake Venicius Junior, they have to stop the game because
they're making noises at him and they're throwing things at him.
It is sick and ridiculous. There is no room in

(25:25):
the beautiful game for something this heinous.

Speaker 16 (25:28):
I can relate, and I can assure you when that happens,
you don't know what to do anymore. So he tried
to walk out one time in Spain, if I remember
well away. Then another time, you know, he tried to
kick someone back because he had enough. Now he went
to see the referee to tell him what happened. I've
been there. The referee also told me I can't do

(25:50):
anything about it. As you can see, they couldn't do
anything about it. They go and see people to try
to see what they can do about it. As because
they don't know what happened, what's been said, they cannot
take action. But let's see how how big of a
man Christianity is. Tell us what you said? You must
have said something, because you can't go and say to
Mbappi after I didn't say anything, what do you mean

(26:11):
say anything? So you cover your news for what you have?

Speaker 17 (26:12):
A call that?

Speaker 2 (26:14):
Right there is one of the great players of all time,
Terry Henri, who is black, and yeah, why'd you cover
your face and say that? Why what did you say?
You're young, you're stupid? What did you say? Now this
could be a learning moment. But UEFA, who runs the

(26:38):
European Soccer everybody, they need to come down hard on
these teams to do stuff. Kick them out of the tournaments,
suspend players not for a game, but for a time
that makes them recognize what happened. We can't have this
in any sport three two, three, five, three eight, twenty

(26:58):
four to twenty three actch you had been to show,
is your ex, your insta, YouTube and everything else. Love

the artist, what happened to the song. In many cases,
people know the song, they don't know the artist. Some
know the artists but didn't know was them. And in
many cases people have no idea who sang the song

(29:07):
and what the name of the song actually is. But
today is not one of those days. Today this is
a song that is truly iconic.

Speaker 18 (29:18):
Now it's time for another edition of One Hit Wonder Wednesday.
You may not remember the name of the band, but
you definitely know the song.

Speaker 19 (29:45):
Ember this Bruiser.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
This is One Hit Wonder Wednesday. We remind everybody if
you have a one Hit Wonder you'd like us to
get onto, let us know three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four, twenty three year at Ched Benson Show and
as your ex in your Insta. Now let's get to it.

(30:07):
Song came out in nineteen eighty nine by a man
who said I can't sing, but he was funny. He
was famous for being one of the great beat boxers
of all time. Remember I beat boxing, and in his
day he could put it down like nobody was business.

(30:29):
Because of this song, he actually transformed the way that
samples are being used in today's world. But before they
ever got to the samples, before they ever got to
any of that biz, Marquis released a song that changed
his life and made him a cultural icon for many.

(30:55):
The song is absolutely hilarious. In fact, he became known
as the clown Prince of hip hop, but he was
one of the originals. There was no doubt and because
of this song, he went on to do things like
Men in Black, two Yo, Gabba Gabba Empire, SpongeBob SquarePants.
I mean, he had all kinds of things he did,

(31:17):
but before he ever got to any of that, he
took his bad singing and you know a little bit
of his life story when it came to dating, and
he just said, hey, I'm going to turn this into
a hit and a hit. It became your one hit
Wonder Today from nineteen eighty nine that peaked at number nine,

(31:39):
but still it's kind of number one all over the
place when you think about it. Biz Marquis and you say,
he's just a friend.

Speaker 20 (31:46):
Have you ever met a girl that you tried to
date but a year to make gloves?

Speaker 4 (31:50):
She wanted you to wait.

Speaker 5 (31:52):
Let me tell you a story.

Speaker 20 (31:53):
In my situation, I was talking to this girl from
the US nation.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
The way that I met Pope was.

Speaker 20 (31:59):
On tour that concept you had long hair and a
short mini skirt. I just got on stage dripping porn
with sweat. I was walking through the crowd and guess
who I made. I whispered it in the head. Come
to the picture, boo, so I can ask you some question.
To see if you're hunt your proof. I asked her name.
She said blah blah blah. She had nine to ten
pens and a very big park. I took a couple

(32:21):
of foots since she was enthused, that said how do
you like to show? She said, I wasn't very your muse.
I started throwing b She started throwing back mid range.
But when I sprung the questions, she acted kind of strange.
Then when I asked you you have him, and she
tried to pretend she said, no, I don't. I only
have a friend.

Speaker 4 (32:38):
Come on, I'm not even going for it. That's what
I'm gonna sing.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
You.

Speaker 4 (32:45):
Got what I Need?

Speaker 20 (32:48):
But you say he test a friend, You say he
test the friend.

Speaker 4 (32:53):
Oh oh, just amazing.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
His off key singing he kept in there. People wanted
to actually change it out, and he said, now I
like it. I know I can't sing, and I'm okay
with that because this is my story and I'm talking
about it.

Speaker 21 (33:24):
Actually.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
Freddie Scott, this was a sample off of his nineteen
sixty eight song called you Got what I Need, and
they thought he was going to put it in there
with him singing, but he didn't. But he did sample
it and that's where everything changed. Because of that, he
didn't ask for the sample, and there was a lawsuit

(33:46):
Grand Upright Music Versus Warner Brothers Records about the sampling.
The court ruled that artists have to clear samples before
using them, and that decision right there completely reshaped the
hip hop production and the industry itself. So unintentionally, Biz
has created the world of modern sampling. He was a pioneer.

(34:09):
He was funny, but he also had health issues. He
had type two diabetes, eventually suffered a stroke in two
thy twenty one, and after being in the hospital for
many days, he passed away at the age of fifty seven.
The song found new life after that, but you can

(34:32):
hear it at least two or three times a year
on a commercial and the video itself is hilarious. And
if you want to see something really funny, look up
Jeff Goldbloom. When he does this with Biz Marquee and
Jeff's playing the piano, it is absolutely hilarious. But there

(34:55):
is no doubts it is a one hit wonder and
it's still wandering around out there. Your one hit Wonder
for Today from nineteen eighty nine peaked at number nine
on the US Billboard Hot one hundred. Biz Marquis Just
a Friend three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four,

(35:16):
twenty three. At Chad Benson Show is your ex that
is your Insta, your YouTube and everything else. We love
hearing from each and every one of you. And again,
if you have a one hit wonder, you'd like us
to one hit wonder out there for you, we can
do that for you. Just hit us up right here
on the Chad Benson Show Man. That was a good

(35:42):
first hour. We talked about a lot of stuff ieron
the meta and the big trial going on. We hit
the Olympics as well, what and the chaotic, crazy and
sad story of what took place yesterday with Real Madrid's
superstar Venesius Junior, which is horrible in the Champions League

(36:03):
and it was, I mean, in this day and age,
what the hell is going on? Am I right? If
you miss any of the show, you know what we say,
shame on you. Grab the podcast. We do love hearing
from all of you. And again, if you have it
one hit wonder, and this is where I get most
of them from you guys, let us know you can
tweet at us at Chad Benson show Texas Directly three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three hour number two straight
head Chad Benson Show.

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

Speaker 2 (36:55):
The Battle of Late Night against CBS and Colbert fighting
and then the FCC what what Yeah?

Speaker 4 (37:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (37:05):
So, by the way, great move for tall Rico going
on with Colbert the other night because of it not
being played. You guys, remember we talked about it yesterday
and I don't know how real it is because guess what,
it's theatrics, but I have a feeling. CBS said, hey,

(37:26):
you have Taller Rico on. What about the you know
fair We got to give you know, krockodd On and
all this. You know, we got to everybody opportunity to
come on, right. That's the whole point of broadcast television.
You can't just have your favorite person on in the
world of politics who's running in something. You have to
have everybody on, right. And because of that, Tallarico and

(37:50):
his interview ended up just being on the YouTube. But
he also raised two and a half million dollars in
less than twenty four hours, so that's a win for him.
Congratulations to him. Now, CBS issued a statement. It says
the Late Show was not prohibited by CBS from broadcasting
the interview with Rep. James tell Rico. The show was

(38:11):
provided legal guidance that the broadcast could trigger the FCC
equal time rule for two other candidates, including Rep. Chasmin Crockett,
and presented options for how the equal time for the
other candidates could be filled. So what happened, Colbert? For

(38:31):
the record, I'm not even mad.

Speaker 7 (38:33):
I really don't want an adversary relationship with a network.
I've never had one. As I said last night in
my interview with James Tallerico.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
Check it out.

Speaker 5 (38:41):
It's on YouTube.

Speaker 7 (38:42):
It's pretty good, I said, I said to him, I
am grateful to have worked for CBS for the last
eleven years and worked with George and David and Amy
and everyone at the network. The Sheldons of every age,
the Matlocks of every sex. I'm so surprised that this
giant global corporation would not stand up to these bullies.

(39:06):
Come on, your paramount, No, no, no.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
You're more than that, your paramount plus.

Speaker 7 (39:19):
Plus what I guess we're all going to find out
pretty soon. And for the lawyers to release this well
without even talking to me is really surprising.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
I don't even know what to do with this crap.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
Hold on, whoa.

Speaker 2 (39:36):
He goes down and he gets like when you go
pick up your dog's poop those plastic baggies and picks
up the statement.

Speaker 11 (39:46):
It is.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
Look, CBS right now is going through very contentious battle
to see who is going to own Punt Paramount plus
and all of that stuff in the Netflix, and all
these battles are going on. And to get a lot
of these things through, you need what the FCC. And
they're like, it's a okay, who runs everything? Well they
got Brendan No, no, no, not Brandan Carr who runs

(40:08):
everything Donald Trump. Do I think they're placating Donald Trump?
Of course they are. Do I think though you have
to give a you know, fair run the equal time. Yes,
I think you do. And remember and we and I've
had it before at the local level where if you know,

(40:29):
I'll ask everybody to come on. If you don't come on,
that's a you thing. If you don't come on, that's
a you thing. But it's a great win for for
for tallar Ico because he can say, look at me
standing up for you know, especially with yesterday kicking off
the you know, the early voting in Texas, and he
had something to say about it last night.

Speaker 17 (40:49):
I mean, it felt a little like deja vu because
we had just gone through this with the View. Trump's
FCC launched an investigation to the View after I appeared
on that program, and so to have it happen again
with the Late Show again just felt like a bad rerun.
And it should be troubling to all of us, regardless

(41:10):
of our political affiliations or political beliefs, that the most
powerful people in the country, the most powerful politicians, and
the most powerful corporate executives, are working together to sell
out the First Amendment, to sell out our freedom of
speech in order to protect their own power and their

(41:30):
own wealth. And that should be concerning to all of us,
whether you're a Democrat or a Republican, whether you're progressive
or conservative, because an attack on any one of our
First Amendment rights is an attack on all of our
First Amendment rights.

Speaker 2 (41:45):
And remember, it was a weird situation where this wasn't
you had to put Republicans on. This is a Democrat issue.
If you were going to do the equal time thing,
it was a Democrat issue because tell Rico's a Democrat.
Crocket's a Democrat, right, So this was a Democrat issue,

(42:07):
not a issue when it comes to Republicans. You had
to go put Republicans on. You just had to put
the other candidates on. And that's what they mentioned there.
But yeah, there's been issues, There's no doubt with Trump
going and suing and coming down. I don't like it.
I didn't like when the you know, and my fear
is when the Democrats end up, you know, getting back

(42:30):
into office at some point in time, are they going
to have to start saying, well, you know, we can't
have hateful language here, we can't have this, we can't
have that, and we start turning into Europe, which is
you know, they arrest somebody for posting, you know, something ridiculous,
and I've seen it. Look even here in Tennessee late

(42:50):
last year, we had a guy who, after Charlie Kirk
was killed, retweeted a meme but didn't even retweet. He
posted it on on Facebook and it had nothing horrible
to say about Charlie Kirk or anything else. That was
something that Trumpet said in it was a meme. And

(43:11):
what ended up happening, they arrested him. He's been like
a month and a half in jail. They put a
three million dollar bond on him because they said the
school in the district he was in people felt that
he was threatening to school. It had nothing to do
with that school at all. It was a It was

(43:36):
in relations to a school shooting that happened the year
before in a county in a different state that had
the same name as the high school, kind of the
same name. So yeah, do I want that stuff to happen?
Hell no. I value free speech, I value independent thought.

(43:56):
I value all of those things, and so every but
he's making it more than it should be. But it's
a win for everybody, including for Colbert because it makes
him look like the hero. And of course you've got
Larry Ellison, who owns CBS right his son's running everything.
They're very friendly with Trump. Trump supporter. CBS News has

(44:17):
had an overhaul with Barry Weiss, They've had the lawsuit
with sixty minutes, Anderson Cooper just left sixty I mean,
so there's a lot going on. And do I think
they favor Trump? Yes? Do I think there is a
you're looking for some favor with Trump? Of course, because
it's also business, and you've got Paramount Plus right now,
Warner Brothers and all of this stuff, and you know

(44:38):
who owns it. It's business, kids, It's business. That's it.
It's business. And do I think that both sides right
and left, if they could, without stepping on your toes
and stepping on the First Amendment, figure out a way
to stop negative stuff from getting out, You know they would,

(45:04):
but you'd have to step on that First Amendment. And
that thing's pasky and we love it. It's important. Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at chet mensone show,
is your ex your Insta YouTube and more love hearing
from each and every single one of you. Speaking of
Tall Rico, early voting has begun.

Speaker 22 (45:25):
I voted in a Democratic primary because I believe nowadays
we need to make a change, because if you look
at who's in power now, Dan the Democrats, and it's
just trying to make a change. I think people need
to get involved.

Speaker 23 (45:37):
I still don't think that we're within the realm of
probability for a Democrat to win a statewide race. I
think that we're still probably several election cycles away from that.

Speaker 24 (45:50):
The Republican Party mega has taken over the entire state
legislature and the governments. They've now set an agenda that
I think is uncomfortable to people in Texas. It's uncomfortable
people around the world, and I think they're wondering what
the heck we're doing here.

Speaker 2 (46:05):
Well, first, you should only care about Texas in this situation. Secondly,
do I think it's impossible for a Democrat to win
in Texas? Depends on the Democrat. Do I think Jasmine
Crockett can win?

Speaker 4 (46:22):
No?

Speaker 2 (46:23):
No, no, It also depends on the Republican. I think
Cornan beats any of them. I think Paxton's gonna have
a trouble. I think Paxton would beat Jasmine Crockett. I
don't think he beats tallar Rico if taal Rico doesn't

(46:44):
go crazy. And I say that because and by crazy,
I don't mean crazy. But you know, the Democratic Party
is their own worst enemy. We talk about it all
the time. Republicans need to wake up every day and
thank God that they're up against the Democrats, because they
will continue to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

(47:05):
day in and day out by their insanity of playcating
every single marginalized in their mind's group over the betterment
of everybody, rather than a outlook of you know what
used to be kind of like Clinton had and Obama had,
common sense. Look at the world with some populism in there,

(47:29):
you're gonna you're gonna continue to lose if you continue
to take that path of insanity. So that's that's just it.
So do I think a Democrat can win?

Speaker 4 (47:42):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (47:42):
Do I think it's going to happen at this point
in time. Primaries matter, and that includes the Republicans. We've
seen it over and over again. If you get crazy
out there in the lead in the primary, people that
are unelectable in a general, but the staunch supporters come
out and get behind that person, you're gonna have a

(48:06):
tough time winning in the general. That goes for both
the right and the left. And we've seen it with
Trump and herschel Walker. We've talked about that three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four three at chip fits the show. It's your
ex instance all of those things. Love hearing from all
of you, Omaha Steaks is amazing and right now they've

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

Speaker 2 (49:53):
Will We or Won't We?

Speaker 4 (49:55):
Go to war?

Speaker 2 (49:56):
With the run Yesterday we're talking everybuddy Mike Lions military
anlysts extraordinary and he's like, you don't move all this
stuff over here, like we said to you know at
the Caribbean. You don't move all that stuff over there
without thinking you're going to do something. And this is
where I think right now, BB and the hardliners and

(50:16):
Trump disagree. I think Trump thinks there may be a
way to negotiate something a pause, realistically, a pause for
him long enough to you know, to basically get out
of office. That being said, Bibe wants this done now,
he wants this done. Now. What is this? I couldn't
tell you. I have no idea. Now we know what

(50:39):
they want, but what's realistic. They want the regime to fall.
They can put a puppet in that they can control,
and you know that's that's what they want. They want
them not to have any opportunity to enrich anything whatsoever.
And the guidelines that bebe laid out the other day

(51:02):
were so ridiculous, right, like they're insane, knowing full well
he's not going to get it, and Iran, I think,
is going to play along with it until they don't.

Speaker 25 (51:14):
And the Israelis clearly want the Trump administration not only
to push for limitations on Iran's nuclear program, but also
to include in these talks at limitations on Iran's ballistic
missile program and even limitations on Iran's relationship with its
proxies in the regions like you know, the Hohothies in
Yemen for example.

Speaker 2 (51:33):
Translation, we want you to do everything we want you
to do or else.

Speaker 4 (51:38):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (51:40):
Now, what do I think is going to happen? I
think the neocons and the warmongerers are going to get
their opportunity to warmonger. Case in point Lindsey Graham the
other night, who once again the only thing he's never
invaded was a woman.

Speaker 21 (51:53):
The wars of the future are being planned here in
Israel because so if you're not one step ahead of
the enemy, you suffer. The most clever, creative military forces
on the planet are here in Israel because they have
to be to survive. So what we're looking at is
that Israel is advancing down the road of the new
weaponry far beyond us, and it would be nice to

(52:15):
have a process where we could be partners.

Speaker 2 (52:19):
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty
three at Chad Benson Show. It's your ext your Insta,
your YouTube and more and everything else right here on
the Chad Benson Show. Hey, just out of curiosity. Where
are they getting all that money from? Who's backing them,
Who's giving them the opportunity to do all of this? Oh,
it's us, Lindsay, and I'm sure some of your big donors.

(52:42):
He just loves to invade. It's his dream man. You
thought Bolton was the invader, Lindsay. He never saw some
outside of a woman that he didn't want to invade.
Let me know what you think. We moved from the
Middle East to Pima County. The search for Nancy Guthrie continues.
So far nothing zilch zeros. That's what they're coming up with.

(53:07):
Pema County Sheriff selling Fox yesterday.

Speaker 1 (53:09):
I believe it was a good targeted kidnapping.

Speaker 26 (53:12):
Yes, I believe whoever did that knew what they were
up to, So do you believe who they were after?

Speaker 2 (53:16):
Now they've ruled out family members, They've been pretty forceful
last couple days saying that. Now that doesn't mean that
that they may be saying something to hopefully get somebody
if they believe somebody's involved, to let their guard down.
But again, I mean, there's what forty thousand leads. And
now they've got this thing called a signal sniffer, which
is like this bluetooth thing.

Speaker 4 (53:37):
It's not a dog.

Speaker 2 (53:39):
It's not a dog, but it could be, and apparently
it can signal sniff her pacemaker.

Speaker 27 (53:47):
It connects to the bluetooth within her pacemaker, and if
they get a hit on it, well though, you know,
they can get down to, you know, within meters of
where that pacemaker might be. But that peace maker has
to be emitting a charge at the same time.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
And we don't know what's going on at this point
in time with that. So the mystery continues and doesn't
seem to be getting any closer to solving that mystery.
If you're missing the show, grab the podcast coming up
Some White Women Wednesday, We get your urban word, a
bunch of other stuff. This is the Chad Benson.

Speaker 11 (54:20):
Show, then Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (54:45):
We talk about them white women, not just progressive. I
got a conservative.

Speaker 4 (54:50):
One in here.

Speaker 2 (54:51):
This nuts too because they make me laugh. They make
us all laugh usually because they're just so awful. Chad,
and I said, I had to be honest.

Speaker 19 (55:04):
You can't tell me they're not. Come on now, it's
not him at the coffee bar. She's not streaming from
her car. Fat take so bredam g HD telling workers what.

Speaker 28 (55:16):
They ought to be.

Speaker 2 (55:18):
Let me send your experience, she said again.

Speaker 29 (55:22):
Over everyone got a friend for every human sin. But
flucks you if you don't shine in it's white woman, wasn't.

Speaker 4 (55:31):
It white women?

Speaker 2 (55:32):
I kid with you, mostly progressive insanity, but it's it's
there for everybody.

Speaker 5 (55:37):
Owner.

Speaker 30 (55:37):
Wait, you see a problematic comedian wish us luck. Didn't
know they were problematic until I looked them up after.
I've also done with wonderful tickets. So here we go.
I told my husband he didn't even know this person
wasn't the first place anyways, And he looked them up
and he was like, Joe, why.

Speaker 1 (55:56):
But she has a lot of.

Speaker 30 (56:00):
Curial to huckle him prepared. In the meantime, so I'll
keep you guys updated.

Speaker 4 (56:05):
Yeah, okay, thanks.

Speaker 2 (56:07):
Anytime somebody says, do you know what this is problematic?
Know that you're gonna get lectured in some way, shape
or form, and uh no, no, I don't.

Speaker 4 (56:16):
You're a nut?

Speaker 2 (56:19):
Is this problematic? Okay?

Speaker 13 (56:22):
I find this situation currently to be problematic.

Speaker 2 (56:27):
All right, Chad, you only ever make fun of wackadoos
on the left. No, I make fun of everybody.

Speaker 31 (56:33):
Hey, all, my.

Speaker 2 (56:34):
Trump's by the way. This lady I she's just she's
got so many followers on the TikTok and she is
like she is all about Trump. Doesn't matter. Trump come
over and punch her in the throat. She'd be like thanks.
She'd be like, thank you.

Speaker 31 (56:48):
Hey, all my Trump supporters, I've got something to show you.
If you are not a fan of President Trump, you
might want to keep scrolling.

Speaker 5 (56:56):
Okay, now the rest of you.

Speaker 31 (56:58):
My ten inch Trump came in today. Every hour on
the hour, it says a new Trump phrase, we won't.

Speaker 29 (57:07):
Make America wealthy again, we won't make America shom again.

Speaker 31 (57:14):
This ten inch Trump clock, it brings humor and a
unique talking point to any space. It's striking ten inch
diameter with vibrant design and easy to read numbers, would
make a perfect gift for any Trump lover.

Speaker 2 (57:31):
I just it's awesome, just the whole thing is. And
you can't tell that she is reading anything, can you?
And you would think if I was to go to
Central Casting and I needed a wackad would she be
the one? If we're looking for the Trump supporter. She's
selling Trump merch. That is just I don't know how

(57:51):
you get there. I don't. I mean, I'm debating whether
or not to send ten dollars to Thomas Massey and
I feel like, ah, you know, well, it's just crazy.
But speaking of crazy, she is the queen. Oh, excuse me,
she is that they them, or excuse me, she may
be the king. We're not quite sure. She's progressive, ladies
and gentlemen, the one.

Speaker 12 (58:10):
They only kylie that white people reacted to Bad Bunny's
halftime performance shows that they do see color. In fact,
they see stereotypes so severely that they couldn't even see
Bad Bunny as an actual American citizen, despite being from
Puerto Rico. They simply associate the language of Spanish with
immigrants and with people with brown skin. Anytime somebody says
that they don't care if you're black, white, yellow, or purple.
This immediately to me is a trigger in my mind

(58:31):
that they are racist, because even if they're right and
they somehow didn't see someone's race which doesn't exist, still
a problem with what they are trying to do, which
is to get everyone to assimilate so that there is
no separate cultures to begin with, that there is no
distinction for them to see colors. Why you'll see a
lot of them are super proud and hanging out with
ICE agents that are brown or black people who have
joined eye because while they do see the color of

(58:53):
this person's skin, they see them as an in group
member because they are working for the regime that they support. Again,
the goal should never be as simile or to deny
someone's heritage. It should be truly celebrating everyone's culture, which
is what we got a tiny glimpse of at the
super Bowl. And and tell this is something that can
be achieved. Denying that you're racist, or denying that you
even notice someone's race or background is just not true,
as we saw last week.

Speaker 2 (59:16):
I'm sorry I was writing it all down. It took
me a second to get back. Where do I start
with assimilation? Yeah, similation matters. It matters, It absolutely should
matter matters. Nobody is saying get rid of your culture.
What they're saying is this is our culture, America, freedom,

(59:37):
apple pie, the reason that you risk everything to come here.
That's what we are. And if you want to be
a part of it, and you want to throw yourself
into it, right, you want all of that stuff. Fantastic,
You want to still, you know, make tacos or whatever,
because that's she always goes to Mexican when it talks
about you know whatever. Great, but America, I mean, that's

(01:00:05):
just it. And I have to explain this to you
and n Kylie. I know that you're getting your masters
at Pan or Brown or wherever you get your master's
at this week. It is what binds us, that gives
us our strength. It is not the things that are different. Okay.
We have to have that solid piece that keeps us together.

(01:00:27):
And I always use this. Let's say you want to
make a chain. Okay, you want to make the chain.
We all have to have something that binds us together,
all right, So that metal that's steel. Now, we all
have to have that commonality. So we can be different sizes. Right,

(01:00:52):
we could be a big link, we could be a
small length. We're we're all steel, we're all metal, and
but we've got to have that one thing that binds. Now,
let's say you've decided, no, I don't want to I
want to be whatever I am, and I don't need
to conform to whatever it is that you're doing. And
then what, well, you decided you're going to be paper.
So when I pull on that, what happens? It falls apart.

(01:01:13):
Now the other ones, the metal ones, they'll stay together.
The steel ones, they're staying together. Oh there's a big one,
there's a small one. There's one that's black, there's one
that's silver, there's one that's brass looking. But we have
that in common, that strength, that steel that binds us.
We may be different, but we have that commonality. This

(01:01:33):
ridiculousness of no, you must only celebrate your culture and
your culture alone because Americay can't have culture is so crazy,
it is, it is so crazy. So enough, my progressive friends, enough,
this is why you continue to lose. Now this administration.

(01:01:57):
I don't know what you did here, but you do
not at times have the sense of humor that you
did prior to becoming the current holder of the House,
the Senate, the Presidency. And I say that because this
is an Australian comedian who thought it was hilarious and stupid,

(01:02:20):
which we all agree with Billie Eilish, you know, weekend
only because you're stolen land or whatever it is. So
he was going to come over and visit because he's
a influencer, comedian, funny conservative, Ozsie guy who was going
to come over and visit, and he flew over and denied.

Speaker 32 (01:02:42):
They told me straight up it was because of my
post about Billie Eilish. I was explaining that it was
just social media humor. I was joking, and unfortunately they
took it extremely seriously. And I think what appears to
have happened is I think that Billie Eilish's lawyers potentially
contacted DHS because they had a full sort of breakdown
of all my social media posts going back to twenty

(01:03:03):
twenty two. I was in the US in January just
I went to New York just to see my brother.
So I was in the US in January with no
problems and then I try to come back and suddenly
they're asking me about my social media history going.

Speaker 5 (01:03:13):
Back to twenty twenty two.

Speaker 32 (01:03:15):
So somebody created a sort of DOSSE and sent it
into DHS, and yeah, it was. It was a pretty
bad experience, I have to say, but I.

Speaker 5 (01:03:21):
Have to be it was pretty funny.

Speaker 2 (01:03:25):
Was it really funny? Of course, quiet people are talking
about you. Right, so you fly all the way over here.
Now he flies from Australia to California. This is not
an easy johnt. This isn't your commuter flight, right, You're
spending hours. Then you get here. Not only deniy, they
decide they're also going to hold you just to make sure,
and it's so ridiculous.

Speaker 32 (01:03:46):
Yeah, look, they wanted me to detail my relationship with
Billy Eilish.

Speaker 5 (01:03:50):
I said there is no relationship.

Speaker 32 (01:03:51):
They wanted to know if I intended to trespass onto
her property. They wanted to know if I would potentially
try and talk to her or touch her, and I
was like, no, of course not. This is literally insane
and like you know, it's just literally social media humor.

Speaker 5 (01:04:03):
She said that no one is illegal on stolen land, and.

Speaker 32 (01:04:05):
I'm an Australian citizen, so I just thought as a
joke that I'd fly to America and film a video.
I was in contact with a Native American performance group
and We're going to try and do like a YouTube skit.
And yeah, I got basically hauled into the immigration detention
facility and I was there for thirty hours and.

Speaker 5 (01:04:23):
It was pretty bad experience. I have to say.

Speaker 32 (01:04:25):
It was pretty funny, like it was probably worth it
for the meme, but it did suck.

Speaker 5 (01:04:30):
I mean, seventy hours in total transit.

Speaker 2 (01:04:33):
Seventy hours total transit. Didn't get into the country Ausie
comedian Drew pavla or Pavlou. And you know what really
also sucks that poor Native American tribe improv group. This
was their big gig and you ruined it.

Speaker 5 (01:04:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 32 (01:04:50):
Look, they did say that the main reason was the
Billie Eilish thing. They were concerned that I wanted to trespass.
Of course, I was saying, this is a joke, and
honestly it was funny because some of the agents.

Speaker 5 (01:05:01):
Actually laughed at the joke.

Speaker 32 (01:05:02):
You know, they understood that I'm like this conservative guy
from Australia who was sort of just trying to actually
poke fun at sort of liberal hypocrisy, the fact that
they believe that no human being is illegal unless you
criticize them.

Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
Unless you criticize them. And I will say good on
DHS for looking out for Billie Eilish and saying, look,
we don't want this guy coming here or do anything.
We can't have that. I mean good on them for that.
That big said right, just you could have looked and go,
I have a feeling this is sarcasm. I'm not one
hundred percent sure, but I'm pretty sure he's a comedian.

(01:05:37):
Feels like it's sarcasm because do you remember after she
said that the Native American was at the Topoa, whether
it's a yeah, I think that was the name, or
you know, like Tapanga whatever, they went and they said, yeah,
you're in our land. That's our land. Now here's a
question for you. In the our land, your land, my land.

(01:06:02):
If it was bought, even though it wasn't white people's land,
but it was purchased. Now, it may have been stolen,
It may have been sold by another country. Could have
been Mexico, right, it could have been you know, Mexico,

(01:06:23):
could have been another tribe. Okay, but if that happened,
even though it was stolen from you, but we bought
it from somebody else is it still stolen land? How
does that work? I'm just curious. This is fair question.
I think three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four
to twenty three at Chad Benson Show, is your ex

(01:06:46):
your instant love hearing from all of you, several of
you have chimed in about our one hit wonder and
then we're gonna do it next hour as well. Also
on the soccer that we talked about about Venetius Junior,
the soccer star, the Brazil socc star places for Real Madrid,
who was racially abused yesterday in the Champions League game.

(01:07:06):
And it is just an ugly situation, you know, it
is an ugly, ugly situation that this day and age that,
and you know, America is always the worst place, like
We're always the worst. Everything's horrible, We're the worst, We're
the most racist, awful, horrible country.

Speaker 4 (01:07:23):
Blah blah.

Speaker 2 (01:07:23):
You know, we just heard Kylie and I tell everybody.
Go around the world. I think you'd be surprised how
the rest of the world is not as diverse and
as woke as a lot of people would like to think.
Just throwing it out there, kids, really factor is amazing.

(01:07:45):
I take it every single day. You should take it
as well. Sally is one of our listeners. She's been
a listener for a while. She started taking it and
she said she was shocked. Right, you know, I always
say put it to the test. So she she was
getting older, as we all are, we're the youngest we're
ever going to be, right this second, And as she

(01:08:06):
starts taking it, she starts to feel better day by day,
week by week. Within two weeks, she said it had
changed everything. Ninety percent of her pain was gone, which
left her a feeling better at work, but also when
she'd come home at night, she felt so much better
and was able to spend more quality time with her family.
That could be you as well. Relief Factor targets those

(01:08:26):
pathways when it comes to inflammation. So if you're over
exerting yourself at times, whether you're just working out a lot,
or you've got a very demanding job, or you're just
getting a little longer too, then sometimes you just get
a little sore. Relief Factor is going to help you tremendously.
I want you to try a three week quick start
right now. Go to relief Factor dot com, relief Factor
dot com or call eight hundred four relief eight hundred

(01:08:50):
the number four relief To get yourself a three week
quick start, you will not be disappointed eight hundred the
number four relief or relief factor. Chad Benson chew.

Speaker 30 (01:09:09):
A hashtag me too, hashtag immigration reforms.

Speaker 1 (01:09:12):
Hashtag help. I'm trapped in a hashtag factory and I
can't get out the chat Benson show.

Speaker 2 (01:09:19):
I love when you guys chime in. You know, you
text me or you hit me up on the any
of the socials and they say, you know what, it's
fun that you do the whole urban word of the day,
because now I'm hearing words, I go, oh, I know
exactly what that means. We do that because it does matter, right,
it does, because there's a lot of young people out
there that say stuff and you take a step back
and go, what the hell are you talking about? And

(01:09:39):
then there's some stuff that you hear and you go, oh,
we used to say that, but we didn't mean it
like that. And then there's just some stuff that's kind
of neat.

Speaker 1 (01:09:46):
No, it's time for the urban word of the day.

Speaker 2 (01:09:50):
The young have a vocabularity all their own, and we
break it down for you. It's called the urban word
of the day. All right, your urban word of the day.
I remember that we do this every single day at
this time. This helps you understand what's going on. And
today's urban word is a very interesting word. What. Yes,
it is sleepcation. Oh I like that, Chad, tell me more.

(01:10:12):
Sleepcation is actually becoming something. This is where you don't
do anything, but you make it a vacation. Somebody's like, hey,
where are you going on your vacation? Like, dude, I'm
doing a sleep caation. Sleep caation. Yeah, I'm doing nothing
but sleeping and relaxing. Ooh. So when you hear somebody
say that, know exactly what is going on. Sleepcation is

(01:10:36):
your urban word of the day.

Speaker 1 (01:10:38):
That was the urban word of the day.

Speaker 2 (01:10:40):
Now you know, is that a real thing?

Speaker 5 (01:10:43):
Ched?

Speaker 2 (01:10:43):
It absolutely is, so hotels now are specializing it. Now,
what you need to know about sleepcations is you don't
go to New York or else. You don't go to
big cities for that. You want to go somewhere. So
even even live in one of the big cities, right
you live in Seattle, You're gonna want to go outside
of the city, find a small little bed and breakfast
or small hotels. And now some hotels are catering towards

(01:11:05):
people who are they're just exhausted and they just want
to sleep and that's it. They don't want to do
anything else. They want to have room service, they want
to sleep, they want to watch TV.

Speaker 4 (01:11:16):
They want the room to be.

Speaker 2 (01:11:17):
Like sixty degrees, and they want everything darked out, and
they just want to relax. And I'm like, that's a
good thing I always need. Like with my vacations, was
I take very rarely. I need a sleepcation and on
I try to do a couple of days a month
where I don't do anything because I don't sleep a lot.

(01:11:39):
Last night, I went to bed at like ten, and
I woke up at twelve forty five and I couldn't sleep,
so I just got up and started working. And you know,
some days I I'll sleep for four hours. Some days
I'll sleep for five. But most days I sleep about
three and a half and then I will go and
I will sleep right. And when I go on vacation,
the last thing I want to do is go somewhere

(01:12:01):
do all kinds of crazy, chaotic things, then come home
and then have to go right back to work. I
need a sleepcation in between.

Speaker 4 (01:12:07):
By vacation.

Speaker 2 (01:12:08):
If that makes sense, Let.

Speaker 4 (01:12:09):
Me know what you think.

Speaker 2 (01:12:09):
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty three
at Chad Bensons Show is your ex, your Insta, your
YouTube and all of the other things. We love hearing
from each and every one of your right here on
the Chad Benson Show. Coming up, our number three of
the program. A lot of stuff to get to. We're
gonna have our one hit wonder. We got a little
what's trending as well some Epstein's stuff. People are speaking

(01:12:32):
out more and more. I have said it. I want
to get to it this hour, but we're doing so
many other things. But you know, from the Sean Ryans
to the Dave Smith to the Flagrant you know with Schultz,
to to you know, Charlemagne and a lot of other people.
This isn't going anywhere anytime soon. And I keep saying
that the economy matters, but for a lot of people

(01:12:54):
this matters as well, especially amongst the independence which gets
you over the hum. I'm going to talk about that
among other things. All of that and so much more.
Sad chap m.

Speaker 1 (01:13:05):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:13:35):
It is a chaotic scene in Tahoe. So if you
guys don't know where that is, that is northern California,
a very popular place to go hang out, ski great
place in the summer, and there's an avalanche and the
snow's massive. They got to six survivors. Nine are still missing.

(01:13:59):
My buddy, he sends me some pictures the other day
and I told my wife, I said, I said, oh
god it after this happened last time, I said, I
think I think my buddy Kenny's in tah I said, dude, you,
I said, you okay, you're alive, because no, I'm not
in ta I'm in Mammoth. I said, okay, because you're
about the tenth person that text me. I said, okay,
I just want to make sure. I mean, I don't
want anything bad to happen to anybody, but you know,

(01:14:20):
you're my boy. And it is crazy how bad it is.

Speaker 33 (01:14:24):
Search teams now urgently hunting for survivors in the Sierra Nevadas,
where law enforcement says a group of fifteen people. We're
in the Castle Peak area midday Tuesday when that avalanche occurred.
Six members of the group survived and called for help,
and nine are.

Speaker 2 (01:14:41):
Still missing and they are, you know, every second it's
it's it's it's a race against time, hypothermia and whatnot.
I mean, it's it's horrible. And tracking them in the
conditions that they're at right now are I bet just

(01:15:01):
virtually impossible.

Speaker 34 (01:15:03):
These missing skiers are easily five thousand feet higher or more.
We're talking about more than a dozen people with multiple
guides with them now. At least half of them appear
to be buried. And sadly, this has the potential to
be one of the deadliest avalanches in decades, just as.

Speaker 2 (01:15:20):
A horrible you know, remind you. I mean, we always
you know, we had out here the ice storm that
came through, and we're still seeing people try to dig
out from that. We've got, you know, restaurants out here
in the Nashville area that are closing because the damage
that was done was so big that they're like, it's

(01:15:40):
not worth reopening. We had people that died because you know,
your generator, you had enough for a day or two,
you didn't have enough for eleven or twelve days. And
it's the thing I always say about you know nature,
the perspective, and if you're new to the show, we
have a thing called nature will mess you up. Usually
it's a fun bit we do where you are trying

(01:16:03):
to pet a bison and then nature does something stupid.
You try to take a selfie with a shark and
then you get bit and you're like, I can't believe
it bit me. You know, that's nature messing you up.
But nature is a beast, and nature will do whatever
nature wants to do. And that is scary, scary thing,

(01:16:24):
no doubt about that. And you know, godspeed they find them.
But when you look at the weather up there, especially
in Tahoe and California across the board, I mean, it
is just you know, it's not just even the weather
because they're expecting massive storms still throughout the day, right
all the way in weather advisory until potentially tomorrow at

(01:16:50):
ten o'clock. So to say, this is a race against time,
much like we talk about with Nancy guthriees Savannah Guthrie's
mom is, it's a race against time and nature and
time are winning at this moment in time. We moved
from there to the courts. One of the biggest cases

(01:17:12):
in potentially American history is taking place right now in
the court system, and that is a lawsuit against social networks. Now,
before this lawsuit started, before the trial started, TikTok and

(01:17:34):
Snapchat they settled. But we're going to get a first
time glance at Zuckerberg in front of a jury. Now,
this is not a case based on content. Okay, So

(01:18:01):
this is not a case based on the content of
what was on the socials. This is a case based
on in their minds, the people that are suing this
girl and her family, you created something you knew was
addictive to use, not what was on there. And there's

(01:18:24):
a big difference because I think a lot of people
are thinking, oh, so this is all that stuff that's
on there. It has nothing to do with that. It
has all to do with the addictiveness of social media,
the algorithms, the swiping, how do you get people to
continue to use your product, Vegas slot machine type things.

(01:18:50):
That's what they're saying, which and I've talked to several
people like no, no, no, they're suing because of the content.
It's not the content, it's not it's you put something
out that you've admitted, you knew what's going to be addictive,
and then when it was addictive and bad things happened,

(01:19:15):
You shouldn't be surprised you're getting sued.

Speaker 3 (01:19:17):
They're pointing out KGM, and that's the name for the
nineteen year old who was the plaintiff in this case.
They're point a kg I'm saying, yes, there could be
some negative things about social media, but let's talk about
occur that before she got into social media, she had
already had a therapist. There was already issues with her
announced What caused a lot of the mental and physical
issues that she's arguing with not social media.

Speaker 2 (01:19:38):
I here's how I feel about this. Okay, I'm gonna
throw this out there and some of you probably unpopular take. No,
it's a nuanced take. You guys made something you knew
was going to be addicted. You've already you've gone before
to Congress and talked about it, so you knew that.

(01:20:01):
That being said, your child was struggling with issues already.
Why didn't you do everything you could? And obviously I
think she's nineteen now, but she was much younger to

(01:20:21):
reduce her time on screen, reduce her time with the computer,
reduce her time with all of those things. Why weren't
you more into the presence of her while she was
using some of the stuff or taking it away. And
we've been talking about the trial right now in Georgia

(01:20:48):
where the kid killed two teachers and two kids, and
dad is on trial as well, facing one hundred and
eighty years. Dad knew he was a mess. School knew
he was a mess. Everybody knew he was a hot mess.
He had a shrine to other shooters in his bedroom.

(01:21:11):
He actually, because of some of the stuff that he
had typed into things at school, had not only a
school resource officer come by, but an FBI came by
as well. And one of those things was how do
you kill your dad? And then dad bought him a gun.

(01:21:36):
You knew he had problems and you supplied him with that.
You knew your daughter had problems. And rather than try
to take it away, rather than try to limit it,
whether than try to get a handle on it, where
is your responsibility in this as well? Because for me,
it's like, look at and this is and when I
talk about how big this is, think about the well
they're settling, or at least trying to settle Bear, the

(01:22:00):
pharmaceutical and agricultural conglomerate with their roundup lawsuit over cancer.
But you've got to go back to the tobacco industry.
If you smoke today, that's on you. You know, right,
you know now right, you're essentially smoking cancer. If you will,

(01:22:25):
you get it. You can't. Yet forty years ago you
didn't because they hit it all. Social media, didn't hide
any of it. They designed it to be that way.
They've been pretty forthcoming in that. So as a parent,
you gotta be more involved. And it doesn't mean that
you're gonna save your kid from all the ills of

(01:22:45):
the world. That doesn't mean that.

Speaker 29 (01:22:48):
But.

Speaker 2 (01:22:51):
You need to be in a position where you're taking
some responsibility in this. And she already had issue, just
like that kid who shot up his school in Georgia
had issues and you supplied him with the gun. That's
like giving somebody who's getting ready to drive, who's already

(01:23:14):
drunk more booze. So we'll see how this goes. But
they're saying anywhere between fifteen hundred to sixteen hundred other
trials are out there waiting for this trial to conclude
and see what happens, because if they find them, essentially

(01:23:38):
it's a civil trial, so not guilty, but it's not
that they find them that they have done nothing wrong
and they owe nothing. Then they you know, those other
ones are going to probably fall by the wayside fast
if they find that they were indeed guilty of making

(01:24:00):
these things addictive. Knowingly that this was going to happen,
You're going to see so many of these cases. Let
me know what you think. Love hearing from all of you.
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty three
at Chad Benson's show. That is your ex and your
Insta see the way I did that there? Yeah yeah,

We've talked about that, also trending over to Google. Number
one thing yesterday is YouTube down number two Benfica versus

(01:28:02):
Real Madrid, and we've talked about that. We'll talk about
it again. Coming up a little bit tall Rico Ash Wednesday,
Alicia lu we're struggling in our ice skating. We came in,
we thought we were going to be good. We have
a little struggle going on. Shilah buff If you guys
didn't see insane, apparently he was. He's been released from custody,

(01:28:24):
but they said, let's just say he tied one on
at Marty Grass for the last couple of days, including
some people say, terrorizing many people downtown and eventually getting
into a fight fisticuffs as you would say, uh huh.
And finally over to x Van Serubio, June Carter Israel

(01:29:14):
Mandani Benfica Venisius Junior soccer. Also trending America First Jasmine
Crockett All things trending in the Magical World of X.
One of the other things trending is Thomas Massey. His
donor map is sparking debate. Is he relying heavily on

(01:29:40):
Democrat donors. No, I've said this and I'm going to
do it. I refuse to give to anybody, and I'm
gonna give like ten bucks break my own. And I
am not a Democrat, nor do I want to be.
I'm not a Republican, nor do I want to be.
Neither of those parties represent pretty much anything anymore outside

(01:30:02):
of their own best and self interest. But Massey, I
think this is people who are fed up all over
the place and are seeing somebody who is standing up
for what they see as the right thing to do.
And it's not just about taking on Trump. It's about
the right thing to do in this situation. Plus, he

(01:30:24):
has always been about fighting for fiscal responsibility at a
time when neither party has any want to curb spending
at all. They just don't. They just want to overspend
on their projects, nothing else. And this administration is no

(01:30:47):
different three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to
twenty three eight Chad Benton shows your exceraancetuff one hit
Wonder Wednesday coming up a little bit, among other things.
This is the Chad Benson.

Speaker 11 (01:30:57):
Show, Fun Chad Bentson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:31:22):
Before we get to Epstein, let's get to the white ladies.

Speaker 19 (01:31:26):
It's not him at the coffee bar. She's not streaming
from our car. Fat taint. So bredam do HD telling
workers what.

Speaker 24 (01:31:35):
They ought to be?

Speaker 19 (01:31:37):
Let me send he your experience.

Speaker 29 (01:31:39):
She says that begin over, everyone got a friend for
every human sin.

Speaker 2 (01:31:45):
But fucks you if you.

Speaker 18 (01:31:46):
Don't shimee in.

Speaker 8 (01:31:47):
It's White Woman Wednesdays, Oh white women, progressive mostly gonna
tell all of us what we should and shouldn't do
and how bad we are.

Speaker 2 (01:32:01):
And I'm talking, of course, to you white males, heterocyst normative, patriarchal, toxic,
masculine men. That's who you are.

Speaker 12 (01:32:13):
It's tight be a hot take, but women absolutely have
better leadership abilities across the board than men's. Is not
an insult. I genuinely do not mean this in any
capacity as an insult. You can simply see in the
way that women lead families, that society should be matriarchal.
The biggest lie that the patriarchy has put out there
is that brute force is equal to leadership abilities, which
is simply not true. Empathy is one of the best
characteristics of leadership in my opinion, and that is why

(01:32:35):
the world is burning, because men simply want to dominate
and subject to other people to whatever womens and desires.
Not all men, but that is why the world is
burning because there is no attempt at reconciliation. The goal
is simply to steamroll other people in other countries to
get the resources or whatever else they want at the time.
Not as why Trump is not necessarily unique in this regard. Yes,
he might be completely neglecting the law and doing more

(01:32:59):
fascist bulks, maybe some previous presidents. The simple fact that
men are socialized to think that being forceful and violent
means that they are in some way better than women
is simply not true, and in fact, I would argue
the opposite is true, that creating a nurturing and compassionate
environment is the best for leadership, and creating a safe
and better environment for all people.

Speaker 2 (01:33:17):
There you go for all people. She knows it better
than you. And look, do we need more empathy? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:33:23):
Do we?

Speaker 2 (01:33:23):
Absolutely? Is the world hard out there? See, you think
about it in your world. If I led the country,
everything would be great, we would all be happy. It
would be Kumbai.

Speaker 4 (01:33:34):
Yah.

Speaker 2 (01:33:36):
You think about it in that. Now understand that your
world now though, as a leader, is not just your
little sphere. It's the big sphere. And sometimes you have
to make decisions. And she's right. Women are brilliant. Case
in point AOC the other day. No AOC is over

(01:33:57):
there in Munich along with a lot of people this week.
Why because everybody's running in twenty twenty eight. You got
to go out to Munich right to the security conference.
You got to put your stamp on stuff that says
I'm here, I'm serious, I can handle it.

Speaker 10 (01:34:13):
And should the US actually commit US troops to defend
Taiwan if China were to move?

Speaker 2 (01:34:21):
You know, I think that.

Speaker 28 (01:34:25):
Yeah, this is such a you know, I think that.

Speaker 5 (01:34:31):
This is a.

Speaker 28 (01:34:33):
Yes, this is of course a very long standing policy
of the United States. And I think what we are
hoping for is that we want to make sure that
we never get to that point, and we want to
make sure that we are moving in all of our
economic research and our global positions to avoid any such confrontation.

(01:34:58):
And for that question to even arise, oh.

Speaker 4 (01:35:00):
Okay, there you go.

Speaker 2 (01:35:03):
You should be able to just come out and say, look,
the last thing we want to do is have to
defend them because they get attacked by China. We need
to strengthen them and strengthen ourselves and our resolves and
making sure we're self sufficient here at home. So should
something come up that if we have to make a
decision that the Congress and me, if I was president,

(01:35:25):
would make the right decision of what we need to
do to defend them by supplying them with the things
that they need in that situation where they can defend themselves,
but also understanding that the reckoning of the world would come,
which would be the chips, not the potato chips. And
so China would also have to understand before they ever

(01:35:46):
got to that point that they would face a cold
shoulder from a vast majority of the planet that makes
their world tick and that includes us. Something along that
line would have been a helper. But hey, you know what,
who am I, right, I'm just a guy that yaps

(01:36:07):
on the radio. Trump I told you this. I tell
you you're not going to escape it. The numbers bear
it out.

Speaker 5 (01:36:15):
Oh, it is not going away.

Speaker 26 (01:36:16):
If the Trump administration and Donald Trump in particular, believe
that they can wish this story away, the American public
have a different tune to sing. What are we talking
about here? Well, let's take a look at Google searches
for Epstein. In fact, in the month of February, it
is higher than it's ever been, up like a rocket
of nine versus a month ago. And the top name
associated with googling for Epstein, well, it is Donald Trump.

(01:36:40):
So the story isn't not going away. It's actually getting
searched more and more and more becoming more relevant in
the minds of the American public.

Speaker 5 (01:36:48):
It's so interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:36:49):
This is, you know, more than it was when Congress
voted to force to release more than it was when
they actually release some of them, more than it was
when they released more of them. Now it's the most
it's ever been, the most.

Speaker 26 (01:36:59):
It has ever been in the previous highs were also very.

Speaker 2 (01:37:02):
High, very high. See, now we've got to start breaking
down the numbers. Let's get into it. And we'll always
tell you about polls, and I always say this right Left,
throw them out, independence, largest voting group, disgruntled, pissed, angry,
exhausted majority. That's us. Where do we.

Speaker 26 (01:37:16):
Land bad political news for President Trump? You know, yesterday
we spoke about the fact that Donald Trump's overall approved
rating is net approval rating.

Speaker 5 (01:37:24):
Was it a record low for term number two?

Speaker 26 (01:37:25):
What is the worst issue for Donald Trump of any
of the major issues?

Speaker 5 (01:37:30):
Look at this.

Speaker 26 (01:37:30):
We got them all up on the screen, immigration, foreign policy,
the economy, trained terrafs, and then all the way down
at the bottom is the Epstein case. Look he's underwater
on immigration, foreign policy, the economy in terras all between
minus sixteen and minus twenty five points. The Epstein case, though,
is on another planet. Look at this negative thirty nine points.
He's thirty nine points underwater. Basically is split between thirty

(01:37:53):
percent approved and seventy percent disapproved. The Epstein case is
not the story. The Trump administration and Trump are particular
and Republicans at large want in the news because it
is a big political loser form and these numbers have
remained very consistent no matter which poet you look at.
He's about forty points underwater in the Epstein case. By

(01:38:14):
far his worst issue, and he's not actually good on
the rest of mind, No he's not.

Speaker 31 (01:38:18):
But the Dow is over fifty thousand.

Speaker 2 (01:38:21):
It depends on the day.

Speaker 26 (01:38:22):
Okay, So if the Epstein case is something that absolutely
is terrible in the minds of the center of the
elector among independents, in fact, the number is closer to
minus fifty on the net approval. If it's absolutely terrible
among the center of the electorate. Among Republicans, look at
this GOPU approve of Trump, immigration, the economy, foreign policy
train takes all of them basically between seventy seven and

(01:38:45):
eighty five.

Speaker 5 (01:38:45):
But look at the Epstein case.

Speaker 26 (01:38:47):
Just fifty five percent of Republicans approve of Trump. On
the Epstein case, it is something that divides Republicans and
it is something that the overall electorate really doesn't look.

Speaker 2 (01:38:57):
I mean, no, no, that's not going anywhere. No matter
how many.

Speaker 4 (01:39:01):
Times the Dow is over fifty thousand.

Speaker 2 (01:39:04):
You hear that it is not going anywhere, it is not.
And if the economy sputters at all, And I think
we're in a position right now where it feels like
we're in a like a fast neutral. We're not shifting anymore.
But we're in neutral, but it's still moving forward. If

(01:39:26):
that sputters at all, this is gonna get louder. It's
gonna get louder anyways, but it'll get louder sooner if
the economy slows down at all. And the independence I
said it right there and I'll say it again, they're
the ones that matter because they're the ones that put

(01:39:47):
you over the line when it comes to your elections,
right or left. People are frustrated, they're angry, but you've
lost a lot of people, especially younger group that helped
you get over that line, that thought you were going
to be this big, transparent We're going to get it
all out there, and now they look at you and

One hit Wonder Wednesday. As we were wrapping up Chad Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (01:41:48):
If you like talk radio like Chad Benson likes his meals,
you've come to the perfect place for takeout.

Speaker 2 (01:41:55):
We've talked about a lot of serious stuff today, it's
time to calm it down a little bit as we
end the pro with one of our favorite things that
we do, One Hit Wonder Wednesday. This is where we
dissect a song an artist that was in many cases
flash in the pan and some cases became iconic. And
that is one of those cases today because we've got

(01:42:16):
an iconic song with a hook that makes you smile
and a guy who unfortunately has since passed away, but
was larger than life in his day. Ladies and gentlemen,
boys and girls, without further ado, you know what time
it is. It's time to find out what's that one
hit Oh I Do Wonder?

Speaker 18 (01:42:38):
Now it's time for another edition of One Hit Wonder Wednesday.
You may not remember the name of the band.

Speaker 2 (01:42:56):
But you definitely know the song.

Speaker 18 (01:43:06):
This Bruiser, this is One Hit Wonder Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (01:43:11):
We remind everybody if you have a one hit Wonder
you'd like us to get onto, let us know. Three two, three, five,
three eight twenty four, twenty three year at Chad Benson
Show and as your ex and your Insta. Now let's
get to it. Song came out in nineteen eighty nine
by a man who said, I can't sing, but he

(01:43:32):
was funny. He was famous for being one of the
great beat boxers of all time. Remember I beat boxing,
and in his day he could put it down like
nobody was business. Because of this song, he actually transformed

(01:43:53):
the way that samples are being used in today's world.
But before they ever got to this samples, before they
ever got to any of that biz, Marquis released a
song that changed his life and made him a cultural
icon for many. The song is absolutely hilarious. In fact,

(01:44:18):
he became known as the clown Prince of hip hop,
but he was one of the originals, there was no doubt.
And because of this song, he went on to do
things like Men in Black, two Yo, Gabba Gabba Empire,
SpongeBob SquarePants. I mean, he had all kinds of things
he did. But before he ever got to any of that,

(01:44:40):
he took his bad singing and.

Speaker 4 (01:44:43):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:44:45):
A little bit of his life story when it came
to dating, and he just said, Hey, I'm gonna turn
this into a hit and a hit. It became your
one hit Wonder Today from nineteen eighty nine that peaked
at number nine, but still it is kind of number
one all over the place when you think about it,
viz Marquis and you say, he's just a friend.

Speaker 20 (01:45:05):
Have you ever met a girl that you tried to
date but a year to make gloves?

Speaker 4 (01:45:09):
She wanted you to wait.

Speaker 5 (01:45:11):
Let me tell your story.

Speaker 20 (01:45:12):
In my situation, I was talking to this girl from
the US nation. The way that I met her was
on tour on that concept. You had long hair and
a short mini skirt. I just got on stage dripping
porn with sweat. I was walking through the crowd and
guess who I met? I WI spit in the head.
Come to the picture so I can ask you some
question to see if.

Speaker 4 (01:45:32):
You're how your proof?

Speaker 5 (01:45:33):
I asked her name.

Speaker 20 (01:45:34):
She said blah blah blah. She had nine to ten
pens and of very big barn. I took a couple
of foots since she was enthused that said how do
you like to show? She said, I wasn't ver your music.
I started throwing bis. She started throwing back mid ringe.
But when I spring the questions, she acted kind of strange.
Then when I asked, do you have him? And she
tried to pretend. She said, no, I don't.

Speaker 5 (01:45:54):
I only have a friend.

Speaker 4 (01:45:57):
Come on, I'm not even going for it. I'm gonna
sing you Got what I Need?

Speaker 5 (01:46:06):
But you say just a friend.

Speaker 4 (01:46:09):
You say just a friend?

Speaker 5 (01:46:11):
Oh?

Speaker 31 (01:46:19):
Friend?

Speaker 8 (01:46:23):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:46:24):
Just amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:46:25):
His off key singing he kept in there. People wanted
to actually change it out, and he said, now I
like it. I know I can't sing, and I'm okay
with that because this is my story and I'm talking
about it.

Speaker 5 (01:46:42):
Actually.

Speaker 2 (01:46:42):
Freddie Scott, this was a sample off of his nineteen
sixty eight song called You Got What I Need, and
they thought he was going to put it in there
with him singing, but he didn't. But he did sample it,
and that's where everything changed. Because of that. He didn't
add for the sample, and there was a lawsuit Grand

(01:47:04):
Upright Music Versus Warner Brothers Records about the sampling. The
court ruled that artists have to clear samples before using them,
and that decision right there completely reshaped the hip hop
production and the industry itself. So unintentionally, BIZ has created
the world of modern sampling. He was a pioneer. He

(01:47:27):
was funny, but he also had health issues. He had
type two diabetes. Eventually suffered a stroke in two thy
twenty one, and after being in the hospital for many days,
he passed away at the age of fifty seven. The
song found new life after that, but you can hear

(01:47:49):
it at least two or three times a year on
a commercial and the video itself is hilarious. And if
you want to see something really funny, look up Jeff
Goldbloom When he does this with biz Marquee and Jeff's
playing the piano, it is absolutely hilarious. But there is

(01:48:12):
no doubts it is a one hit wonder and it's
still wandering around out there. Your one hit Wonder for
Today from nineteen eighty nine peaked at number nine on
the US Billboard Hot one hundred. Biz Marquee Just a
Friend three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four twenty
