Dana Lashes of surd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida Man.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
So yesterday we had it was just like a passing
story about a guy named Lieutenant Dan. And Lieutenant Dan
was a is is he a veteran? I don't know,
because now ex is trying to milkshake ducky and I
don't know. He's a guy who's got one leg and
they call him Lieutenant Dan. And he decided to stay
(00:37):
in his twenty foot boat and whether the hurricane and
he survived, and he was trending on social media last
night because everybody was wondering, is Lieutenant Dan safe? And so,
and it turns out he made it. He did make it,
and we got some audio him because he is the
Florida Man, of Florida Man right here. He's survived mill
(01:00):
and this is he started. I don't know. He apparently
has got an arrest record. Which one are we playing?
I don't even know what to start with. Okay, let's
do it. Okay, start with the twenty three. Here's this
is Lieutenant Dan. How's the ride? The water's gone? That's
that's going out to the water.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
It's going out and being pulled out.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Yeah, you see, how are you doing? No problem? Apparently
hanging is as bad as you thought? Was it as
bad as you thought? Still going out? It's going out?
(01:43):
Are you hanging there? All?
Speaker 1 (01:50):
So?
Speaker 3 (01:50):
I was looking well as a record, it's just like
for boat tickets and stuff like that, like some people
on social war wondering because apparently there's another guy with
his exact same name that they were looking up another
guy's record. But apparently he's got I mean, I don't know,
he's got like I don't know, like what past tickets
and stuff like that, drug paraphernalia. And he had a
(02:12):
possession charge in Broward County. He pled no contest anyway.
The whole point is that this dude stayed on a
twenty foot boat in a hurricane, a Cat four Calf
five hurricane, stayed on the boat and whether it do
you think? I mean, I I would have been sick, dude,
because you know that would have been some choppy, choppy
(02:33):
water audio somebody twenty four. So he started to go
fund me a few weeks ago. Well get this, where's
I just saw this. There's one outlet It's called kickstream
he's been offered two million dollars kick deal and a
one hundred thousand dollars boat. This is audio somebody twenty four.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
First off, this man has a GoFundMe with over twenty
thousand dollars in it. He's not homeless period. He lives
on a boat except for the short year that he
spent in prison for beating a EMT with a violet.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Okay, so.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
A different name then the.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
One way he's got to go fund me. But he
was offered a two million dollars kick deal one hundred
thousand dollar vote. That is true because Kickstreams Live actually
confirmed that on X. But there's some people that are
trying to do an exposy on um and they're trying
to I guess say that he that some of the
crimes from this other guy are his, and they're not.
But his was apparently he got in trouble for marijuana
before it was legal, and it wasn't a felony charge.
(03:28):
So anyway, I don't know, so it was this lady
who did it. First off, don't be a dumb bitch
and start slandering somebody on air. Okay, I don't know.
I'm not I'm not apologizing for calling her that or
saying her that this is my or saying that she
is that because she is. I have a major problem
with these people who want to pretend to be journalists
and they get on stupid CCP TikTok and they make
(03:50):
these dumb videos and they run their mouths without doing
proper research, and then they end up slandering and defaming
and libeling people. Stop it. Don't be the care that
does that. Okay, don't be like I gotta hurry up
and make a stupid video for clicks. No one cares.
No one will remember your name in twenty four hours,
but they will remember how you smeared this guy. So
(04:11):
stop doing that. Just because you can doesn't mean you should.
I hate that. That is like a feature of humanity
now thanks to social media. And I'm not apologizing for
my language. I would say something way harsher, but I'd
be fined. So all he got busted for pot and
that was it. He's not a pedophile, he's not all
this stuff. But all of that was like running rampant
(04:32):
because of this one chick on social media. This guy
just wanted to survive the hurricane in his boat with
his one leg. That's all he wanted to do. How
did he not get tossed out that boat? Can we
throw up that picture that I put in slack because
someone went by on the dock and they were like, hey,
Lieutenant Dan, that's they call him, and he popped his
(04:53):
head out of the canvas, and it's a meme. This
is all going to be us the day after the election.
This is gonna be the image. I have never felt
an image so much in my life because it was
just the white tarp and then him poking his head out,
and I'm like, that is us, that is all of
us right now, wines getting ready to show to you.
This is gonna be our image for this is us
(05:15):
the day after election. I'm saving it because I'm gonna
use this gratuitously. Oh my gosh, is it stopped? Is
the election over yet? So Lieutenant Dan did survive, And yes,
the woman who did that video was a progressive. Our

Tell them Dana sent you. Welcome back to the program.
Dana Lazo with you at the bottom of this first hour.
We're gonna get into some of the polling hold up.
(06:40):
But I've got to make fun of something so bad.
So Timmy Walls hired a They hired a gamer, Kill
me Now. They hired a gamer to play World of
Warcraft so he could just skiv ity riz right up
into the hole. I guess what zoomer dialect. They hired
(07:02):
a gamer to play World of Warcraft and on Twitch
they had it on Harris's Twitch page. It was this
guy named Preheat. What they got like five thousand, a
whole five thousand views. Whoo news E give me a
pop up where I mean they got a whole five
thousand views? No cap, very demure, and uh I love it.
(07:26):
They go, this is media. I just trying to blow
this up. At its height, the live stream received nearly
five thousand views. Who kill me? So They said that
after it transitioned to just regular World of Warcraft game
plane dropped about thirty five hundred viewers. I I'm not
gonna be able to get through this this whole segment
without choking to death. So ah yeah, it's it's that
(07:52):
it's this meme where it's you remember an alien where
it's a Sigourney Weaver or if you're al Sharp and
Signorey Weaver and the aliens right here will somebody replaced
it with moo dang and just said skivity riz you know,
bob bop ohio, And that's what it's like. A whole meme. Anyway,
So Tim Walls, he went live, and they're trying to
(08:13):
make a big deal out of it, and this is
how they were, This is how wired. Who is Wired,
which is the leftist site of fake Nerds, wrote this quote.
The Harris is Heris campaign's goal and combining the rally
with World of Warcraft game please to increase the Harris
and Walls visibility to young men who make up the
majority of twitch is user base. So that's so lame,
(08:34):
you know that these people this is the closest to
combat he's ever gotten, by the way, playing World of Warcraft,
Tim Walls, I mean he can be like, look, I'm
almost there in combat. Whoa Leroy Jenkins? So the I
guess did he did he? Actually? I don't think he
actually played it. Did he just sit there while someone
(08:55):
else played it? Dear heavens? Did he?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
I don't even know if he was there watching it?
To be honest with.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
You, they oh my gosh, it was the first time
that they're gonna stream live gameplay and the twitchy can
and they did. They did he Actually he did not
actually play because he doesn't play. Nobody believes he plays.
I mean, look at I mean all you gotta look
at his jazz hands. He knows. Dude doesn't play. He's
he does no idea what this is. But he had
no idea. So they The Harris campaign described Preheat, who
(09:27):
specializes in the world of warcraft and rights guides for
the game, as a volunteer for the campaign and Trump,
They noted, has his own Twitch page, but he hasn't
outloaded any videos and he's never live streaming video game
because he's in. He's an older dude who doesn't let's
like not pretend like, don't sit here and be like,
go look at me ode war Craft. I'm like you guys,
(09:48):
I'm just like you kids skip any hiz, I'm just
like you. No, CAP's nobody. Nobody believes that he does this.
Nobody believes that he even knows what this is. He's nobody.
Nobody buys this. By the way, I have to say
that there's a segment of our audience listening that is like,
what is she saying? What is she saying? What is
(10:11):
the skippy? She's speaking in tongues. I it's with you
have kids, you know too?
Speaker 4 (10:21):
Right?
Speaker 3 (10:23):
So he hired so he they played the game next
to the rally. He didn't play it. They just that
is so on point with this with this campaign. So
wait a minute, we're not gonna play No, we're not
gonna play World of Warcrad. Someone's gonna play it like
next to us. I'm not even kidding.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Is it worse that they paid this guy or girl
to react to his own rally just to sit there
and stare at it like you need more validation?
Speaker 3 (10:50):
I'm sorry?
Speaker 1 (10:51):
What that was the community note that he paid. They
paid him to react to one of his rallies on Twitch.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Okay, full stop. They paid this dude to do a
reaction video to one of Tim wolls to the Walls rally.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Why are we putting these people in charge of anybody?
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Oh my gosh? What? Oh wait? Did the rally? Here
was that video of the rally where they were in
the gym. It was literally a Wall's rally. Oh my gosh.
Audio somebody twenty seven guy, don't spit liquids out, don't
choke on your food because it's so cringe you could
cringe to death. There is a viewer warning with this video.
(11:28):
The likelihood of cringing to death is very real. It
is a rally in Tucson. We probably can't play anything music.
They're playing Beyonce Love on Top, and I mean, wow,
I'm just getting wow wow. If you wanted to know
if what would it would look like if he translated
(11:49):
a gap sweater set to a gymnasium full of people.
This is it. I mean, so, I don't know who
the guy is dancing. I guess that's part of his
I guess it's one of the Walls campaign people. But
they're playing Beyonce's Love on Top and then they have
all these people in this gen this is in Tucson.
I don't know who the chicken the pink shirt is.
I want to die to death. And look, look this
(12:11):
is this is like the twenty twenty four campaign version
of top that the horrible cringe wrap from that one
movie starring Blake Lively's sister. It was the Witch movie.
Remember that. Don't google it You'll die. It's horrible. That's
one of the worst things. That's that's their cart. So
(12:33):
the guy was paid to basically do this kind of reaction,
to react to that. How does one get that job?
How does one like guess I would like to react
to things? Pay me? I want to react to Tim
Walls's campaign, Look at all these sad, sad white Marxists,
let's react to them. So they hired so, they hired
(12:54):
this guy just to play the game next to him.
And they've been trying to reach people. They've been evering
during you know, on IGN, which is a gaming site.
They've been major gaming events, all this stuff, and they've
been trying to reach out. Now a couple of things
with this because he doesn't play, and obviously it's cringe pandering,
but maybe I don't know, like maybe some in the
(13:16):
Republican Party should stop this stupid, dumb talk against video
games and gaming and maybe engage the gaming community. Whenever
I see someone railing against games, I mean ten to ten,
it's always either it's always someone who's never played them.
They've never played them. I'm just not going to take
(13:37):
commentary about how games are bad and how we should
ignore them from like some you know, irrelevant, you know,
middle aged, you know, a big government George W. Bush
level compassion Republican kind of operative on TV, or somebody
with their extensions curled into perfect curls on Fox or
(14:00):
a n RMSNB. I'm not going to sit here and
take these people's commentary about gaming when they don't even play.
They have no idea what the community is, They have
no idea what goes into it, They have no idea
how social it is, none of it and they all
think that. I mean, it's like these people would be
gun controllers. Honestly, it's the same logic. So maybe some
of the Republican Party should stop this stupid talk against
(14:21):
video games and maybe engage the community instead. And maybe
maybe someone should have told Waltz that there's a big
hurricane that was heat in Florida yes last night, because
that rally was happening yesterday. That what we just showed
you that was happening yesterday.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Yeah, and now all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's Quick five.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
I love this. So Fat Bear Week continues and now
the they call it the gigantic what it's a bare
named Grazer and it's a they call her a gigantic
bear name Grazer Fat Bear Week. She won the crown
as I guess fattest Bear. This is after months after
the runner out killed her. Cup the bear known as
(15:04):
Bear one twenty eight beat her opponent Chunk by more
than forty thousand votes. That you actually can vote for
the bears overexplored dot work and you vote for your
favorite fabric. That she is a wow, she is a chunk.
How much does she weigh? She said? They said twelve
bears ultimately made like the like they were the final
of the fattest bears alive. But yeah she was. Her
(15:27):
cup was killed by mail brown Bear the day that
the brackets were released at Old Dad. So she has
a third letter though, She's got one of her cups
from her third letter that was second in the Fat
Bear Junior competition. It's like pageants for bears. I love it.
Oh oh. Hillary Clinton, her second book, Hateful Angry Book
about why she lost, sold fewer copies than her first book.
(15:49):
I mean she barely sold twenty seven thousand copies and
her first week ooh wow. A Turkish Airlines pilot died
died while flying the plane from Seattle landing in New
York emergency landing in New York early Wednesday. The captain
lost consciousness mid flight. Didn't make it, airline spokesman said
(16:10):
in a statement. They said that he didn't respond to
medical intervention. It was an Airbus three fifty. It was
going to go to from Seattle to Istanbul, and there
was a co pilot in the cockpit obviously, but they
had to make a four hour flight too. It was
over northern Canada and had to turn south making a
four hour flight to JFK so that they could land.
And the guy passed a health exam like recently the
last time they did it, So I don't know. Attorney's
(16:33):
voice cloned a in an AI scam conned his dad
into giving thirty five thousand dollars. Always have a stay
ward with your family. An attorney issued a warning over
an elaborate AI voice cloning scam at full his own
dad he handed over thirty five thousand dollars. They were
the scammers impersonated Jay Schuster thirty four called a seven
year old dad. Frank said his son was in an
(16:53):
accident and needed bail money. And the guy was a
retired attorney and he was convinced it was his hysterical
son and he's been trumptized. Like I don't know. I
just feel like you would know, you know what I mean,
you would know the a godfather of AI just won
a Nobel prize and he's been warning that machines could
take over the world. Per Wall Street Journal, Jeffrey Hinton
hopes the prize will ad credibility to his claims about
(17:15):
the dangers of the very AI tech that he pioneered.
But now he's a newly minted Nobel laureate and he's
been saying, yes, we're at this We're at this point
in history where we got to figure out how to
deal with the threat, because it's happening. It's here. A
Hawaii as food worker was fatally stabbed in an altercation
with a customer. Well who why. Ronaldo Cheney was charged
(17:37):
with murder and criminal contempt of court. The sixty year
old man, a sixty year old can't remember what you said.
Old people are innocent, stabbed and killed a Wendy's employee,
injured another. According to reports, Honolulu had responded their PD
He was charged with murder criminal contempt of court. He
apparently got I guess, got mad over his order, and
a forty four year old employee intervened and escorted the
(17:58):
guy out, and it just kept on going. Good heavens, like,
you know, it's a fast food stop. We got more
on the way. Stick with us. I need someone to
explain to me what is happening in this video that
Gretchen Whitmer posted. It's Gretchen Whitmer in one of those
horrible camo hats feeding a dorito to some chick who's
(18:19):
supposed to be I don't know. I hate their term influencer.
It's just digital prostitute. And can I show don't play
the music because I'm sure it'll be copywritten. But what
is this? It was? Was this on TikTok?
Speaker 4 (18:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
I think it originally is on TikTok, but I think
it moved over to Instagram is where I first saw it,
and then of course they've they've been reposting it on
x because there's been a massive attempt apparently to shut
this video down.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
So there's this chick who is kneeling in front of
Big Grutch and Big Grutch in the video if we
have it, hands her a dorito like it's a cracker
at church, and then she like looks at that, she's
looking at the camera. It's weird. And what is with
(19:13):
this like millennial obsession to sexify everything? Stop it? Is
that actually a girl I don't know is the video is?
Is she mocking like Catholics getting.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
It kind of looks like that, doesn't it.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
I don't understand what the point is? And then she
looks at the king. I don't understand. So we were
talking about this because so I was I'm non denominational.
I was verysed Southern Baptist, non denominational. So we have
to ask our it's a new official title we just
bestowed on him, our Resident Catholic Steve. So is that?
I just don't think that that's how it works in
(19:52):
the Catholic Church. I mean I've I've been in Catholic churches.
I don't ever see it working like that. Is that
what am I missing? And when? Is that what it is?
Do you think that's what it is? Is that how
you look at it?
Speaker 1 (20:01):
I don't know when I would go to the priest
like or the Eucharists, whoever's giving communion. You're supposed to
put your right hand in the coupy like you're cupping something,
and then your left hand under it, and then you
say the Body of Christ and then you eat it and.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Cross your you know, do the cross. But I don't.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
I'm never kneeled down doing it. That seems odd unless
I don't.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
Because some people, I mean, it is it that otherwise?
I don't know why? Okay, we're and also why would
you post this? First off? Why would you do it?
And why would you post it?
Speaker 4 (20:37):
Right?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
And I don't what am I missing?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
You're missing? What I'm missing? I have no idea. Maybe
one could throw it up there again, but it looks
like maybe it's mocking the communion thing. But I don't
really know.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
I guess it is mocking communion, I guess I I
don't know. I I don't understand what the point of
it is and why.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
But boy, jd Vance is weird.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Yeah. Jd Vance is so weird. Look at this video.
Jd Vance is so weird, though, look at that video.
The chip so weird, weird, so weird, cults, conspiracies weird.
Isn't that how it goes? Like you're supposed to Okay,
I you know, all right, well there do you have it?
So okay, what's I don't know what the point of
(21:30):
that is?
Speaker 1 (21:30):
But anyway, girls Canadian podcaster Liz Playing, I'm not going
to give her credit here, but I don't know why.
I don't know that. I don't get the connection here.
It must be a dance or something we don't know about.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Oh my gosh, she's a Canadian. Everybody's a podcaster nowadays.
You fart in a mic and you upload it to
Instagram and you're a podcaster. Yeah, you can do. That's
what most of it is. Anyway, it's all slap that.
But my opinions on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
I looked at video is of like first communions and
how communion's done, because again, I'm non denominational Baptist from
the Midwest, and I see priests actually placing the wafer
in the mouth of the people coming up. So the
body of Christ is the wafer, the blood is the one.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
I feel like if that chick showed up to take
communion like that, the priest with kicker like he'd yeat
her back.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
This is governor of Michigan.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
It's big gretch. Yeah, trans Paul Bunyon.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Saying absolutely nothing.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Well, look looking at the camera all weird. Why did
they've got to sexify everything up? By the way, is that?
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Why was was that sexifying?
Speaker 3 (22:39):
You're telling me it's not like her look.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
In the cameras. You think she thinks that's sexy.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Well, it's big gretch. I mean, that's probably as like
fem as we can get it get yeah. I don't know.
I just people are look you, we live in absurd times,
and if this is what I have to comment on,
don't expect it to not be absurd. It's all I'm
gonna say. I can't watch this video anymore. I'm a
throw up on everybody and everything. Sorry.
