One oh six point one FM Talk, 3 00:00:12.240 --> 00:01:03.879 Real News, real talk, all right, good going and everybody, 4 00:01:03.959 --> 00:01:11.040 and happy at you? Man? This ZERI is lying by how y'all doing? 5 00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:21.239 Excuse me? I thought about whether I should open the show with this. 6 00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:23.680 Then I thought, excuse me. I was sitting here. I was 7 00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:26.640 just talking to Ross off the here. Let me take a sip of water. 8 00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:38.480 Weird man. Spring spring into summers always just the worst for those of 9 00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:42.560 you who get a little allergy. You know what's up. But um so 10 00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:48.040 I was thinking about whether I should get into this. And because there is 11 00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:57.000 probably zero people listening who were impacted based on well, I shouldn't say zero, 12 00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:00.319 there's maybe one or two of you out there. So one of the 13 00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:06.879 banks that I do business with, and this is a product of me living 14 00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:15.000 in Minnesota prior to moving to North Carolina well over a decade ago, is 15 00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:20.879 US Bank, And for whatever reason, US Bank doesn't do business in North 16 00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:25.560 Carolina. I shouldn't say that they have like oddly, they have like a 17 00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:30.319 handful of ATMs on college campuses, which I guess I kind of get you 18 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:36.360 get kids from other states, and they actually had and I don't even remember 19 00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:42.360 if they still have it. They had like a single branch. Maybe it 20 00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:45.360 wasn't even I've never been there, but I remember it shown up on a 21 00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:53.840 map out in like Kittie Hawk or something. But primarily US Bank is elsewhere, 22 00:02:53.120 --> 00:03:00.759 but in Minnesota that is kind of the main bank there, and hence, 23 00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:07.599 like the Viking Stadium is literally US Bank Stadium, okay, um, 24 00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.599 And that's where they're based out of. But they cover they cover a big 25 00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:16.560 swath of the country and I don't ever really need to walk into a branch, 26 00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:24.479 so I keep uh one of my accounts there because I did a deal 27 00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:30.639 um way back in the day where I promoted US Bank and I've actually, 28 00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:35.199 you know, look, banks or banks, man, we're gonna have our 29 00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:39.039 frustrations all of that, but um, for me at the time, it 30 00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:44.039 was very convenient. I had products through them, the whole thing. Okay, 31 00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:47.639 all right, And and by the way, this isn't an invitation for 32 00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:52.560 you to tell me about how great your credit union is. I get that 33 00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:58.080 I do, but what I'm going to talk about, frankly, could happen 34 00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:02.039 to anybody, and it's it's less what happened and more of the reaction to 35 00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:08.439 it, which I find bonkers. I'm gonna get a little conspiratorial, so 36 00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:15.199 stick with me. So I continue to do business with US Bank because I 37 00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:20.399 can deposit checks online and the rare occasion that I get a check, it's 38 00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:26.399 attached to all of my stuff. I do my bill pay. And even 39 00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:31.639 though I did open a second bank account with a North Carolina bank just because 40 00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:36.199 I had a second one up, that you should always have two if just 41 00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:44.040 my personal opinion, because who the hell knows for all of kind of the 42 00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:47.560 automated stuff, I just they still do that for me. Okay, probably 43 00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:53.040 shouldn't be giving this info out on the air, but some hackers somewhere or 44 00:04:53.079 --> 00:05:00.720 whatever. But so yesterday, which I don't know if you know this for 45 00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:09.480 a lot of people, was pay day. Yesterday. US Bank just stopped 46 00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:16.519 for a good swath of the day. And when I say stopped, I 47 00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:25.480 mean, um, now part of my Now I I split we you know, 48 00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:29.920 we do direct deposits, So I split the deposits and what I need 49 00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:31.399 for bill pay, and all that goes into US Bank, and then it 50 00:05:31.399 --> 00:05:36.199 goes into my other bank, and and that all like showed up in the 51 00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:42.639 morning. Everything was fine. And then yesterday afternoon I started getting all of 52 00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:48.439 these dings on my phone and they were transaction denials, and they were from 53 00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:55.079 automated bill pay stuff, and they just kept coming and kept coming, and 54 00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:58.759 so I tried to log in, couldn't log in, try to go the 55 00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:02.199 app, couldn't appwooden load, try to call the bank. The wait time 56 00:06:02.439 --> 00:06:08.079 was, um, how long is it till Jesus comes back? It's that 57 00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:15.959 much? And you couldn't. So I went to the I went to an 58 00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:18.680 ATM because I'm curious. I had to go out anyway. I went to 59 00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:25.000 an ATMU and no matter the transaction amount, it's like, nah, you 60 00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:32.519 can't have it. I tried to run a transaction with my with my debit, 61 00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:38.519 Nope, denied. So the entirety of the system shut down, and 62 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:43.079 it shut down for hours yesterday on the same day that a bunch of people 63 00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:48.560 who are customers of what is the fifth largest bank in America. I mean 64 00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:51.920 we're talking tens of millions of I shouldn't say tens of millions. I think 65 00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:59.040 it's like fifteen million people or whatever. Um it it just didn't work, 66 00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:02.959 so people had no access to their money, people who were attempting to pay 67 00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:05.800 bills, pay their rent. You know, it's right ahead of the first 68 00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:12.639 NADA And I'm assuming it had something to do with some system update because I 69 00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:17.360 remember seeing that that they did last weekend and it didn't go well. But 70 00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:20.399 here's why I'm bringing it up. Not because at the end of the day 71 00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:24.920 it really was. It was And in fact, I will say this because 72 00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:29.560 then I tried to do an Uber in THEA when it was still going on, 73 00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:34.319 and Uber said your your payment. When I went to order the Uber, 74 00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:40.920 it says your payment method was declined. However, we will allow you 75 00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:45.079 to pay later. I've never seen anything like that. And then I just 76 00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:48.600 flipped. I just changed to another payment method and got my Uber. But 77 00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:55.800 the reason I'm pointing this out is like Uber had they realized what was going 78 00:07:55.839 --> 00:08:00.959 on, and they pivoted. They realized that US Bank was food bart yesterday 79 00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:05.000 for customers, and they realized it wasn't the customer's fault, so they like 80 00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:09.720 were I'm assuming making allowance because I've never seen that from Uber. Ever, 81 00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:16.639 the reason I'm bringing this up is, and I know in North Carolina. 82 00:08:16.759 --> 00:08:24.560 It may not end up on people's radar, but US Bank had nothing on 83 00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:28.160 any of their social media updating what the hell was going on. People obviously 84 00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:39.000 were losing their damn minds and try and find a story about it. This 85 00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:46.080 is why I'm bringing it up, so one of the top five banks in 86 00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:52.000 the country, if only just for a few hours, because I saw people 87 00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:54.759 online go whoa, It was just just wait and I you know, people 88 00:08:54.799 --> 00:09:01.240 were literally like tweeting that they were at gas stations or at restaurants and they 89 00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:05.960 couldn't pay. When guy's like, I don't know if Chili's is going to 90 00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:11.039 take your excuse, but there was no excuse because they didn't say anything. 91 00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:18.960 And for whatever reason, there's not a bunch of stories about it. And 92 00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:22.360 I'm baffled by that. This morning, I even gave it the night. 93 00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:28.360 I'm like, I'll see what people wrote up in the morning, sitting there 94 00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:33.159 googling this morning. There's some off mentions. Most of it traces back to 95 00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:39.480 social media where people are posting their own experience. But it shows it. 96 00:09:39.960 --> 00:09:54.799 It shows you the it shows you how quickly something like that or and this 97 00:09:54.840 --> 00:10:00.799 is where we get my little tinfoil hat out. It shows you how quickly 98 00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:07.679 you can screech to a halt someone's life if they're if they're beholden to that. 99 00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:15.440 And also it should be a cautionary tale about all of these people who 100 00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:18.519 want, you know, want to get rid of paper currency. Oh well, 101 00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:24.600 we just need to go digital. Well, yesterday afternoon, on likely 102 00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:28.600 one of the highest transaction days, you know, the last day of the 103 00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:35.000 month added into the first, one of the major US banks spent the afternoon 104 00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:41.759 not allowing people to access any of their money. You couldn't do digital payments 105 00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:48.159 obviously because I was getting and then obviously once they corrected whatever they corrected, 106 00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:52.600 and who knows how long that's gonna last. My phone just ding ding ding 107 00:10:52.679 --> 00:11:00.279 ding, like all evening with notifications about denied transactions. From early you're in 108 00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:05.960 the day, it was sending me like second and third notifications that was due. 109 00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:11.360 It was just crazy. It's like your payment to Duke Energy bah, 110 00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:15.720 like three times I got told that didn't go through. So now I got 111 00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:18.799 to figure all that crap out today because it's not actually do but I just 112 00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:22.360 kind of pay everything on the same But the point is, the point is 113 00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:35.440 how immediate, how immediately based on digital usage. They can shut down people's 114 00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:41.000 ability to do anything. So anytime I hear well we need to get read 115 00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:43.879 of paper currency, we go all digital. It's not just the tracking to 116 00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:46.759 see what you do, which is horrific and you know would be abused by 117 00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:52.720 people, but it literally stymies you. And I've never understood, and I 118 00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:58.559 maybe maybe I'm just weird. Like there's people I know that are like, 119 00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:03.600 didn't ever carry cash? I always got to have some cash. I mean, 120 00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:07.799 ross do you do you do you make a point to have cash or 121 00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:11.759 are you just like I got my cards, everything's good. I mean I 122 00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:16.240 try to yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, I'd like it. 123 00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:20.120 And I've always kind of been that way. And it's weird because I have 124 00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:22.480 friends who are like, ah, cash, what do you have cash for? 125 00:12:22.799 --> 00:12:26.679 Mostly they're like they're they're the ones that are bad at gambling, like 126 00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:30.120 at golf, like they don't ever want to pay their nassa. I gotta 127 00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:33.039 go with the ATM And I'm like, how do you not have cash on 128 00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:37.759 you? The heck? But and and and I had and again it like 129 00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:41.799 it. It didn't kill me yesterday, but it was amusing because then I'm 130 00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:45.279 going to the point where I'm going and doing stuff. But then I'm reading 131 00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:48.840 about people who are literally like one guy's at a Chili's. I told you, 132 00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:52.240 it's like, what am I gonna do? You think Chili's cares? 133 00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:56.480 The US banks that, no, they don't. Guy's polishing a third rack 134 00:12:56.559 --> 00:13:00.720 or ribs, going well, I'm just gonna have to keep eating. Hopefully 135 00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:05.759 they get it worked out. But it was that immediate and then so so 136 00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:09.360 you see that, and then for whatever reason, there's no intellectual curiosity on 137 00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:13.799 the part of the media because they realize that's the kind of stuff that gets 138 00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:18.919 people bank running. That's how bank runs start. And then of course every 139 00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:26.759 other comment is somebody like you should have bought doze. Shut up. Okay, 140 00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:35.279 that's not helpful right now, but um just pandemonium, man, and 141 00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:41.639 like, no no coverage on it. I you know, I don't know 142 00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:46.559 the total assets that the US bank has, and again I know in North 143 00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:50.720 Carolina the vast majority of you don't have that. But just imagine your bank 144 00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:56.600 and for you know, pay day, the last day of the month, 145 00:13:56.679 --> 00:14:01.720 when a lot of people are paying bills just for hours and hours and hours 146 00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:07.200 nothing. You can't do anything, and anytime you hear somebody like, oh, 147 00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:11.440 we need to go all digital. Forget the spy aspect of it. 148 00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:18.840 Look at that. Look at how many people got it hampered yesterday. Look 149 00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:22.559 at how many and and and I and of course my conspiracy is the reason 150 00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:24.559 the media doesn't want to touch it is because they don't want, you know, 151 00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:28.559 they want anything to reflect badly on the administration, even though I'm pretty 152 00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:31.840 sure Joe Biden didn't have anything to do with it. Right, It was 153 00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.960 US Bank doing a system software update which they told us about for weeks that 154 00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:41.240 obviously wasn't done well. But that being said, uh, you know, 155 00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:48.159 they got to protect their own and US Bank not even communicating with its guy. 156 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.440 It's crazy, man, absolutely crazy. And then you remember what happened 157 00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:56.440 up in Canada where people who were part of that trucker's protest they just they 158 00:14:56.480 --> 00:15:03.600 just shut all their bank stuff down. It's such an impactful method of control 159 00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:11.759 that, um, you know people, That's that's the other reason I think 160 00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:16.080 they don't cover in because they realize if if you really stopped to think about 161 00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:20.320 the fact that, um, with the flip of a switch, that they 162 00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:24.720 could make it so you couldn't you couldn't do anything. You couldn't literally participate 163 00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:31.320 in society unless you had taken other precautions. They don't want you thinking about 164 00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:35.320 that.

One oh six point one FM Talk, Real News, Real 180 00:17:21.519 --> 00:17:47.480 Talk, all right, six thirty five. Good morning, It is the 181 00:17:47.839 --> 00:17:52.839 case O Day Radio program. Do Do Do Do. Let me grab a 182 00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:59.519 quick phone call and we get into a couple other things. Yesterday, Good 183 00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:02.240 Martin, are you doing a vacade? I'm good, sir. What's up? 184 00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:06.720 So? I just wanting to comment, just put a little bit of 185 00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:10.480 information out there. It was a good point about how you talk about the 186 00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:14.480 truckers in Canada where they shut out the bank accounts. What's coming through this 187 00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:18.039 year is a safe Banking Act. Uh. You know Ron de Santos, 188 00:18:18.079 --> 00:18:22.720 he's kind of you fight against that, but it drives on that good point 189 00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:26.319 that if you're not, you know, locked up with whatever the government's telling 190 00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:29.920 you, they shut down those accounts. Also the good fund Me accounts coming 191 00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:33.519 in and some that in some situations that tell them out in might US donated. 192 00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:38.200 They actually reached even further and shut some of those accounts down in Canada 193 00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:41.799 as well. So I think you'd have a good point, you know, 194 00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:47.920 and the casting people about that whole centralized banking system. Yeah, and you 195 00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:51.160 know, I look, I understand that. Um, you know, there's 196 00:18:51.200 --> 00:18:56.119 there's some folks out there who are uh they'd say, well, I'm gonna 197 00:18:56.119 --> 00:19:00.160 go one hundred percent cash and I you know, I guess you you can 198 00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:03.400 do it. There there are ways to go ahead and do it, and 199 00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:07.160 there are people who do it every day, but it's it's not simple. 200 00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:11.559 So there is a certain convenience to having you know, digital access to your 201 00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:15.240 money, but uh, I think it's more all your eggs in one basket 202 00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:18.799 at this point. But to your point, yes, they they went it 203 00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:23.559 shut. It counts down at individual banks, they stopped go fund me and 204 00:19:23.799 --> 00:19:27.680 one of the other ones. I mean they literally put all the screws to 205 00:19:27.759 --> 00:19:33.240 those folks because they didn't agree with what they were doing. And um, 206 00:19:33.480 --> 00:19:36.799 you know that's Canada. But every time I see Canada or the UK do 207 00:19:36.960 --> 00:19:40.079 something, I just realized that we're just about five years away from it, 208 00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:45.160 maybe less so. Um, well, greatly, I'd appreciate you bring up 209 00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:48.680 that point totally in the middle of the reach out, and they're representative to 210 00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:53.119 say, you know, we can't get point digital can't need it. But 211 00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:57.880 there is a very big concernment that Yeah, all right, all right, 212 00:19:57.920 --> 00:20:03.119 they appreciate the call the morning, thank you very much. So what you 213 00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:06.400 gotta do is you gotta have like, um, you gotta have one of 214 00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:10.440 those big like Scrooge McDuck vaults where that you swim at ross. You have 215 00:20:10.519 --> 00:20:12.240 one, right, you guys have one at the house with all the balloons 216 00:20:12.279 --> 00:20:18.160 and stuff in there. Yeah, just you know, and it's really refreshing 217 00:20:18.160 --> 00:20:19.680 in the morning. Get up, take a swim in. That really kind 218 00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:23.119 of starts your day. But um, you know that's not that's not a 219 00:20:23.160 --> 00:20:30.720 reality for a lot of people. So just saying, gotta gotta diversify and 220 00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:37.640 stuff, all right. Um, So telling you, dude, I saw 221 00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:44.480 this story and I thought, oh, okay, okay, all right, 222 00:20:44.559 --> 00:20:51.119 well this is just an expansion of a TV show in another country, right, 223 00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:56.440 But and that happens all the time. By the way, how many 224 00:20:56.799 --> 00:21:00.720 have you ever liked seen a version of a show that you really really liked 225 00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:06.480 but like was in another country and seen either how different it was, or 226 00:21:06.759 --> 00:21:11.480 in the case of some shows that actually were popular elsewhere and then Hollywood brought 227 00:21:11.519 --> 00:21:15.480 them to the United States. And I'll give you an example one The Office 228 00:21:15.960 --> 00:21:22.839 I think most people realize The Office was a show in the UK prior to 229 00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:29.200 here, because we do. I guess we have a better we have a 230 00:21:29.240 --> 00:21:33.680 better understanding of UK based shows because sometimes they to show UK based shows. 231 00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:38.400 But um, yeah, it was, and it was wildly popular, and 232 00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:44.359 obviously then it came over to here. To the US, it was wildly 233 00:21:44.440 --> 00:21:47.559 popular. How ross, how deep are you guys? By the way now, 234 00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:52.640 because you ross the end of season five? Okay, they Ross and 235 00:21:52.039 --> 00:21:56.599 his wife had not watched it and recently they started watching all of it and 236 00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:00.759 it's one of the best shows ever. It's it's hilarious, yeah, until 237 00:22:00.960 --> 00:22:10.279 you know you're not there yet, so just enjoy yourself. So the idea 238 00:22:10.359 --> 00:22:12.680 that they would then take The Office, albeit years and years later, and 239 00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:18.000 put it in another place, it's a little weird, but okay, all 240 00:22:18.079 --> 00:22:29.400 right, and in this case it's um Australia. However I was and by 241 00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:32.559 the way, for those of you don't know, in the UK, Michael 242 00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:38.160 Scott was Ricky Gervaise, which I've watched a couple episodes because you can find 243 00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:45.960 them online. And Ricky Gervaise is hilarious and and it works. I mean, 244 00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:51.240 obviously there's some specific UK style humor there, if you want to use 245 00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:56.720 that word, but it is what it is. However, in the Australian 246 00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:03.000 version, they've a different direction. They've decided that the Michael Scott, if 247 00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:08.400 you will, is going to be a woman, and you know, and 248 00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:15.440 frankly, I don't need that's not a problem. That's some people would say, 249 00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:18.240 oh, you know, that's that's woke, define what's going on there? 250 00:23:18.799 --> 00:23:23.319 But yeah, but not really, because it's just an office setting and 251 00:23:25.680 --> 00:23:30.359 there is a particular bent that that character has to have. And we talked 252 00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:37.640 about this with the US office where the Michael Scott in the US version, 253 00:23:37.880 --> 00:23:41.559 the first season of Michael Scott is not the version that you see the rest 254 00:23:41.599 --> 00:23:47.880 of the show. They had to tweak his character because he needs to be 255 00:23:47.960 --> 00:23:52.079 a lovable loser to some extent, and there wasn't a lot of lovability there, 256 00:23:53.400 --> 00:23:57.319 so I understand trying to get that right. However, However, I 257 00:23:57.440 --> 00:24:00.920 started reading more about this because I was actually interested. Okay, all right, 258 00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:06.960 they're going to do another one and of course, and maybe this works 259 00:24:06.960 --> 00:24:10.960 in Australia, they've decided to go down the woke route to sell this, 260 00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:17.559 and I am baffled by why they think this needs to be the thing. 261 00:24:17.920 --> 00:24:22.079 And just so you know, by the way, there are thirteen or there 262 00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:27.200 are twelve currently versions of The Office around the world, which I didn't know 263 00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:32.920 until I saw the story yesterday, So this will be the thirteenth. However, 264 00:24:33.039 --> 00:24:42.640 the reasoning, as explained by the producers there is are you ready toxic 265 00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:56.240 masculinity, that's right, toxic masculinity, and also bias in what an office 266 00:24:56.319 --> 00:25:02.079 looks like where there's a man in charge, which is I ronic because uh 267 00:25:02.279 --> 00:25:04.519 ros, you're in the fifth season. Uh is there anything you know about 268 00:25:04.559 --> 00:25:11.240 Michael's boss? Um? Well, he's had several, said several, but 269 00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:15.799 the first one, uh yeah, he had a relationship with her. M 270 00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:21.519 h. The second one was a complete d bag who was happy to see 271 00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:25.480 his come uppance. Yeah, you know it wasn't happy with the Temph's behavior. 272 00:25:25.599 --> 00:25:26.839 Not gonna lie. It was like, you need you need to calm 273 00:25:26.880 --> 00:25:32.680 down, buddy. And now there's a new guy. Yeah. Well, 274 00:25:32.759 --> 00:25:37.119 and he doesn't mess around. Yeah, but but but he answered to a 275 00:25:37.200 --> 00:25:42.480 woman. He answered to jam right, because now he's in his third boss. 276 00:25:42.480 --> 00:25:47.400 His first boss was a female, yes, yeah, and um uh 277 00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:52.359 it was an absolute psycho. Just it and it comes around he needs to 278 00:25:52.480 --> 00:25:57.839 leave her. I hope he gets with Holly. You're like a I can't 279 00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:00.839 believe he should have moved. He should have moved. Oh you're a soap 280 00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:08.680 opera dude. Now. My point is, my point is literally upon the 281 00:26:08.759 --> 00:26:15.920 launch of the show, he answered to a woman for from and and and 282 00:26:15.279 --> 00:26:22.079 where is Michael's any toxic masculinity or inherent racism or any character flaws of Michael 283 00:26:23.359 --> 00:26:27.480 is not portrayed in a positive way. Correct, Right when they're doing the 284 00:26:27.720 --> 00:26:32.960 HR thing, he's a complete idiot. Right when they're doing the hr thing 285 00:26:33.039 --> 00:26:37.640 where they're trying you know where it's the social justice training and he's baking everyone 286 00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:44.400 put you know, cards on their forehead. Right Obviously, obviously there are 287 00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:47.599 a lot of stereotypes that he's that are being played upon there, but it's 288 00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:52.599 shown as he's a he's an idiot. He's an idiot. There's some traces 289 00:26:52.680 --> 00:26:56.400 of possible h he could be a little racist, but you know, he's 290 00:26:56.400 --> 00:27:00.039 got a good heart, you know, right, But but but he's a 291 00:27:00.119 --> 00:27:04.079 complete idiot. But it's not played as a positive Not my point, like 292 00:27:04.079 --> 00:27:08.680 like you know, like, what's her name Indi Kingland. You know, 293 00:27:08.759 --> 00:27:11.960 he's always like, so, how is it like when you lived in India? 294 00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:17.160 Yeah, she's never been to India. So but my point is, 295 00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:19.160 so for you to sit there and decide you're going to do another one and 296 00:27:19.200 --> 00:27:23.720 then have to go woke in why you're doing it, Well, we're doing 297 00:27:23.759 --> 00:27:27.960 this because um uh you know a woman should be in charge. Well yes, 298 00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:33.599 but now she's this is and this is what I'm concerned about. If 299 00:27:33.640 --> 00:27:37.640 if your point of doing this is to make sure that a woman's in charge, 300 00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:44.480 you're gonna have to make her an idiot. And I feel, and 301 00:27:44.640 --> 00:27:48.240 not that I care really what airs down in Australia, but ultimately, are 302 00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:53.599 they going to go so woke where they destroy the character the show if they're 303 00:27:53.599 --> 00:27:57.000 doing it like you know, with modern standards, woke stand is doomed, 304 00:27:57.039 --> 00:28:00.680 it's gonna it's it's dead un arrival, it's dead on a right, I 305 00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:03.319 can't make the show. It's like people always say, you can't make Blazing 306 00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:06.480 Saddles. Again, you can't make the Office if you're going to hold it 307 00:28:06.519 --> 00:28:08.920 to woke standards. It's absolutely impossible. And that's one of the reasons it's 308 00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:14.880 funny because it's not like it doesn't fall that bullcrap. It's funny the moment 309 00:28:14.920 --> 00:28:19.079 you roll out a super confident can do anything she wants, Mary Sue. 310 00:28:19.119 --> 00:28:26.839 If you will female Boss, you destroy the catalyst for basically all of the 311 00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:33.799 other characters, all of the other characters. Ninety nine point nine percent of 312 00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:40.039 what that show launches upon is some stupid thing that Michael's doing, and then 313 00:28:40.079 --> 00:28:44.119 the rest of it is either will Pam and Jim hook up and then messing 314 00:28:44.200 --> 00:28:49.119 with Dwight. That's it, that's the show. All I'm saying is he 315 00:28:49.160 --> 00:28:52.559 needs to get with Holly and Dwight should be running that office. That's all 316 00:28:52.599 --> 00:28:56.799 I'm saying. What do you mean Dwight should be running the He is an 317 00:28:56.799 --> 00:29:00.279 exceptional employee that that office is his life besides the beat farm. Yeah, 318 00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:03.519 he's I don't think he's ever missed a day of work. He carries about 319 00:29:03.519 --> 00:29:07.519 that office so much, and he's he's been the top seller for like ever. 320 00:29:07.920 --> 00:29:11.640 He won. He won two Salesman of the Year awards in one year. 321 00:29:12.359 --> 00:29:15.240 You can't you can't top that. I guess you could get three. 322 00:29:15.640 --> 00:29:21.440 Then they've already made him assistant to the region, right, So it is 323 00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:25.880 he perfect. No, you know, don't let him babysit your cat, 324 00:29:25.960 --> 00:29:29.160 is all I'm saying. However, I think he's a good salesman and he 325 00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:30.920 cares. He's he would be. He might, he might rule with an 326 00:29:30.920 --> 00:29:34.680 iron fist. You know that. I always did what just let me positive 327 00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:37.039 for him.

But he's 329 00:29:44.400 --> 00:29:47.079 been able to overcome that. So maybe you're so good. I don't know. 330 00:29:48.559 --> 00:29:52.519 Uh so I look forward to seeing that. Yeah.

One oh six point one, fam Talk 347 00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:12.359 three News, Real Knock all Right, six fifty four Good Morning Casey Ody 348 00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:22.200 Radio program. So if you remember James Comer Chuck gresson, they were talking 349 00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:26.519 about how they have they got a whistle blower and whistleblowers, I should say, 350 00:31:26.599 --> 00:31:34.920 but also that there is actually an investigative file on the peddling of influence 351 00:31:37.039 --> 00:31:41.799 having to do with Joe Biden's time as vice president and that was going to 352 00:31:41.880 --> 00:31:45.640 be the big reveal. And as I pointed out on the show, when 353 00:31:45.799 --> 00:31:48.799 when that's when they were initially talking about it, I said, you know, 354 00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:53.359 ah, just like Adam Schiff and any of the rest, I don't 355 00:31:53.359 --> 00:31:57.680 care who it is in Washington. Which side of the aisle Um show don't 356 00:31:57.720 --> 00:32:02.240 tell? Okay, because I don't. I don't trust any of you cats. 357 00:32:04.880 --> 00:32:08.240 Either you're just trying to fundraise or you're being less than honest, and 358 00:32:08.240 --> 00:32:14.640 then it turns into a nothingburger. Not that I don't believe that that absolutely 359 00:32:14.759 --> 00:32:19.799 was something that was going on. I think everything that we've seen shows that 360 00:32:19.920 --> 00:32:30.519 there was absolutely influence pedaling for tons and tons of money, crazy money. 361 00:32:30.640 --> 00:32:34.799 The question is does it extend to Biden? Is their proof? I believe 362 00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:38.440 that it probably does, And according to a recent Rasmussen poll, fifty three 363 00:32:38.519 --> 00:32:44.920 percent of Americans believe it does. So the majority of Americans believe that Joe 364 00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:50.319 Biden benefited in that in that sense. But you still got to have the 365 00:32:50.319 --> 00:32:55.160 proof. So they were all getting ready to do this. It was going 366 00:32:55.200 --> 00:32:59.599 to be the big day, and then the FBI said, now you can't 367 00:32:59.640 --> 00:33:05.119 have we we're not They basically didn't respond, So it left a little in 368 00:33:05.160 --> 00:33:09.400 the air that this thing even existed. Well that's not really in the air 369 00:33:09.440 --> 00:33:15.039 anymore, but we still don't know what the contents are, you know, 370 00:33:15.039 --> 00:33:17.759 because you could do an investigation and find that there wasn't and you'd still have 371 00:33:17.799 --> 00:33:23.160 a document on it. Well, Christopher Ray did confirm a file containing quote 372 00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:30.400 allegations of a criminal bribery scheme involving Joe Biden does exist. In a statement 373 00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:37.279 released following a discussion with Ray, House Oversight Chairman James Comer said the FBI 374 00:33:37.400 --> 00:33:44.440 leader offered to allow lawmakers to see the document and FBI headquarters, but won't 375 00:33:44.480 --> 00:33:52.400 actually give it to Congress, So the subpoena fight continues because that's the direction 376 00:33:52.440 --> 00:33:55.920 they went this week. Quote. We have been clear that anything short of 377 00:33:57.000 --> 00:34:01.759 producing the documents for House Oversight is not in compliance with the subpoena, said 378 00:34:01.799 --> 00:34:07.840 Comer. If the FBI fails to hand over the form is required by the 379 00:34:07.920 --> 00:34:16.599 subpoena, the House Oversight Committee will begin contempt of Congress proceedings. Trying to 380 00:34:16.599 --> 00:34:21.719 remember the FBI's issue was basically, it's still an act of investigations. He 381 00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:24.480 can't see it. The problem is nobody trusts the FBI. I shouldn't say 382 00:34:24.480 --> 00:34:30.199 nobody. People with brain cells, you know, cells being two that they 383 00:34:30.199 --> 00:34:35.559 can rub together or more, shouldn't trust the FBI at this point. Just 384 00:34:35.679 --> 00:34:43.239 my two cents. So yeah, the problem is then you have to kind 385 00:34:43.280 --> 00:34:45.519 of have to trust Congress, so damned if you do, damned if you 386 00:34:45.559 --> 00:34:52.000 don't. But there is something. There is a document of some sort. 387 00:34:52.159 --> 00:34:54.920 What it show. It could show that, no, everything's fine, or 388 00:34:55.000 --> 00:35:00.519 could show more than that. So that's the latest up eight there. That 389 00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:05.360 was a little something from yesterday. And we'll see but again, show don't 390 00:35:05.440 --> 00:35:39.400 tell. I'm waiting, so hustle up. Kids. Alrighty, good morning 391 00:35:39.440 --> 00:35:47.000 everybody. It is seven oh six here on the case O Day Radio program. 392 00:35:47.039 --> 00:35:51.320 Phone numbers. We kick off our number two eight eight, eight nine, 393 00:35:51.440 --> 00:35:58.559 three four, seven, eight seventy four. I got some audio on 394 00:35:58.679 --> 00:36:01.880 the on the Biden style ball. Get here in just a moment for y'all. 395 00:36:01.960 --> 00:36:06.639 Oh wait, hold on, Cross, is he wanting to defend Dwight. 396 00:36:07.000 --> 00:36:12.360 We've got to do an office discussion too. See down in Australia they're 397 00:36:12.400 --> 00:36:19.119 doing their own version of the office, and um except the you know, 398 00:36:19.159 --> 00:36:25.239 the current office is filled with toxic masculinity and and uh, why isn't there 399 00:36:25.280 --> 00:36:29.199 a woman in charge? And all that? The pride and so that's what 400 00:36:29.239 --> 00:36:34.880 they're gonna do. And I'm it's not it's not an issue of having a 401 00:36:34.960 --> 00:36:39.039 woman be the Michael Scott character. Um, obviously you know that was Steve 402 00:36:39.119 --> 00:36:43.280 Carrell and in the UK version, which was the first one, it was 403 00:36:43.400 --> 00:36:45.639 Ricky Gervais. But even I mean over here we had parks and rec right, 404 00:36:45.639 --> 00:36:49.119 Amy Amy Poehler, Right, it was sort of like, you know, 405 00:36:49.280 --> 00:36:52.199 she was a female version of that sort of But but the character has 406 00:36:52.239 --> 00:36:57.559 to be an idiot with flaws, right kind of. Um, you know, 407 00:36:57.679 --> 00:37:01.960 lovable loser kind of thing like that's that's how that works. And um, 408 00:37:02.880 --> 00:37:07.239 and so if you've decided what we're going to do this, because so 409 00:37:07.400 --> 00:37:10.039 you're just your your your gender swapping a character, which again I don't think 410 00:37:10.079 --> 00:37:15.360 anyone objects to. You can if if the right actor or actress is in 411 00:37:15.440 --> 00:37:19.760 that role and plays it right, then it works. It doesn't, It 412 00:37:19.760 --> 00:37:23.079 doesn't matter what's between their legs. However, when you're telling me the reason 413 00:37:23.119 --> 00:37:29.400 you're doing this is because you know the patriarchy, then I have to assume 414 00:37:29.480 --> 00:37:36.440 also that you want that character to be awesome and maybe in ways the detract 415 00:37:36.480 --> 00:37:39.320 from what that character is meant to do in the show. So I don't 416 00:37:39.400 --> 00:37:44.760 know, we'll find out, but Ross wants to white to run everything, 417 00:37:44.800 --> 00:37:47.159 and I think that would be ending. I think does he have his flaws? 418 00:37:47.239 --> 00:37:50.880 Yes, but is he a good employee. He's an exceptional employee. 419 00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:55.719 He's the greatest salesman in that office. The man could sell paper. I 420 00:37:55.800 --> 00:38:00.719 don't know how you'll buy the paper. You would say the paper, buy 421 00:38:00.760 --> 00:38:04.400 it, buy it, stopping a coward buy the paper. I imagine that's 422 00:38:04.440 --> 00:38:08.239 what is what his what he does? He's just does that? Does that 423 00:38:08.280 --> 00:38:14.599 sound like a successful sit So can you imagine being on the back end of 424 00:38:14.599 --> 00:38:19.039 the sales like we are right right? Read Read the copy? Read the 425 00:38:19.079 --> 00:38:22.159 copy, Read the freaking copy? Yeah, wait, is there copy? 426 00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:25.320 I haven't seen the copy yet. Oh wow? Okay, all right, 427 00:38:25.440 --> 00:38:29.079 well you haven't seen the copy. What are you gonna do? Is ppo? 428 00:38:29.199 --> 00:38:31.639 Do we know how? All right? We'll hold on so many of 429 00:38:31.679 --> 00:38:36.400 us to comment on this. Yes, Ronnie, what's up? Hey, 430 00:38:36.440 --> 00:38:39.880 good morning morning, Thanks for thanks for having me back. As far as 431 00:38:39.920 --> 00:38:43.880 d O truth goes, I think maybe he was such a good salesman because 432 00:38:43.880 --> 00:38:45.920 you gotta remember, kept the potato gun by his desk. You're gonna buy 433 00:38:45.920 --> 00:38:49.599 the paper or you're gonna get the potato masher? What do you want? 434 00:38:50.320 --> 00:38:54.719 I mean it sounds like we're rhyme sir, that's yeah, sale tax. 435 00:38:55.360 --> 00:39:00.519 Yeah, I would say, is that a real quick question? I mean 436 00:39:00.559 --> 00:39:04.480 maybe real quick? Yeah, Okay. I did go looking at what you 437 00:39:04.519 --> 00:39:07.719 were talking about at the beginning of last hour, and the only thing I 438 00:39:07.719 --> 00:39:10.599 said on was an article by someone from Shark Tank talking about the problem with 439 00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:15.519 real estate and the and the regional and small banks are dealing with. And 440 00:39:15.559 --> 00:39:20.239 she didn't talk about what you're talking about. But am I connecting the wrong 441 00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:24.159 dots to state that there's no way they're not disconnected somehow? I don't know. 442 00:39:24.280 --> 00:39:28.159 I don't know that that's necessarily it was so for those of you who 443 00:39:28.159 --> 00:39:30.760 are just joining us, I was pointing out the yesterday and it really doesn't 444 00:39:30.760 --> 00:39:35.280 impact Thanks for the call there, Ronnie. I appreciate it. It doesn't 445 00:39:35.320 --> 00:39:39.880 really impact people in North Carolina very much because they don't operate in North Carolina. 446 00:39:40.360 --> 00:39:46.920 But US Bank, which is the fifth largest bank, was literally down 447 00:39:47.079 --> 00:39:52.000 for hours yesterday. And I don't mean like the app wasn't working. I 448 00:39:52.039 --> 00:40:00.280 mean the app online banking. People walking into branches couldn't withdraw money, people 449 00:40:00.320 --> 00:40:05.679 at ATMs couldn't withdraw I know this because I still have one of my accounts 450 00:40:05.679 --> 00:40:08.400 as a US Bank account because it's my main bill pay account. It was 451 00:40:08.440 --> 00:40:12.280 just too much of a pain. And I like to keep a couple different 452 00:40:12.280 --> 00:40:19.039 accounts because I'm paranoid. And it just so happened that it was yesterday, 453 00:40:19.199 --> 00:40:22.239 the last day of the month, which is payday or one of the paydays 454 00:40:22.280 --> 00:40:24.159 for a lot of people. And it's also the day when all of my 455 00:40:24.199 --> 00:40:30.679 automatic payments go out, so like, it's the day that Netflix gets paid, 456 00:40:30.760 --> 00:40:32.800 it's the day that Duke Energy gets their money, that at and T 457 00:40:34.000 --> 00:40:37.400 gets my cell phone money, all of it. And in the afternoon, 458 00:40:37.480 --> 00:40:43.400 I just started getting all of these declined, decline, declined, and I'm 459 00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:46.360 like, well, what happened? And I can't even I can't even. 460 00:40:46.519 --> 00:40:51.840 I the only reason I know there's money in there is because yesterday was a 461 00:40:51.880 --> 00:40:58.679 payday here, and I did get direct deposit confirmation in the mornings for that 462 00:40:58.760 --> 00:41:00.480 account and for my other bank and all that stuff, so I know how 463 00:41:00.519 --> 00:41:04.840 much went in there, and obviously it was more than enough. And so 464 00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:08.320 I started looking into it. And what baffled me was like US Bank wasn't 465 00:41:08.320 --> 00:41:12.800 telling anybody anything. They didn't post anything on their social media. People were 466 00:41:12.840 --> 00:41:15.880 on Twitter were like I'm at a Chilis, I just ate and now he 467 00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:19.960 can't pay because you couldn't run You couldn't run a debit or maybe you could 468 00:41:20.039 --> 00:41:22.440 run a credit I didn't try the US Bank credit card, but the debit 469 00:41:22.440 --> 00:41:30.519 card wasn't working, nothing, nothing, for hours and hours. And it 470 00:41:30.639 --> 00:41:36.800 just reinforced that point that all of these people who want to go like all 471 00:41:36.880 --> 00:41:43.719 digital, the ease at which they can absolutely disrupt your life. And then 472 00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:47.920 the thoughts wandered to the Trucker protest in Canada when they literally like locked bank 473 00:41:47.960 --> 00:41:52.599 accounts for people, made it so they couldn't get money from like Venmo, 474 00:41:52.800 --> 00:41:59.519 PayPal, go fund Me's, any of it, and that level of control. 475 00:42:00.079 --> 00:42:02.280 So and I'm always baffled, And I don't know, maybe it's as 476 00:42:02.320 --> 00:42:06.159 you get younger, I see more of this. This isn't me picking on 477 00:42:06.239 --> 00:42:09.440 generations, because it's a lot of people in my generation too, Like I'm 478 00:42:09.480 --> 00:42:15.679 constantly baffled by people don't keep cash on them and not just a little bit 479 00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:17.760 of cash, but you know, and and you know, don't walk around 480 00:42:17.800 --> 00:42:22.199 with a bag full of money, but um, you know enough cash that 481 00:42:22.280 --> 00:42:24.679 if you know, the crap hits the fan for a few days you're gonna 482 00:42:24.679 --> 00:42:31.400 be okay, and possibly even more, but we're not gonna get into that. 483 00:42:31.519 --> 00:42:37.199 But um, yeah, yeah, that was that was bonkers. And 484 00:42:37.199 --> 00:42:40.519 and even though I, you know, I ascertained what was going on, 485 00:42:40.599 --> 00:42:44.800 and they had said that they were doing an update last weekend and obviously that 486 00:42:44.880 --> 00:42:49.679 had problems. Um, you know, people were just high and dry. 487 00:42:50.320 --> 00:42:52.760 But there's a lot of people that I know that they never have cash on 488 00:42:52.840 --> 00:42:58.320 them, never have cash, just run around. Everything's on a card. 489 00:42:58.519 --> 00:43:00.159 Everything's on like, you know, you got a two dollar transaction at a 490 00:43:00.199 --> 00:43:06.280 store card, whereas I'm inclined to generally do cash for stuff like that. 491 00:43:08.320 --> 00:43:15.519 And so that's half of it. And then the other half was nobody was 492 00:43:15.559 --> 00:43:21.400 reporting on it. You had I looked it up. They have twelve million 493 00:43:21.480 --> 00:43:28.840 customers in the US. You had twelve million people in the United States who 494 00:43:28.960 --> 00:43:32.559 potentially didn't have access to any of their money for a good part of a 495 00:43:32.679 --> 00:43:37.400 day. That is one of the days where people generally do a lot of 496 00:43:37.440 --> 00:43:42.079 banking. End of the month, right ahead of the first got money for 497 00:43:42.159 --> 00:43:45.320 rent, you're paying your bills, you're drawn out, whatever cash you want 498 00:43:45.320 --> 00:43:49.239 to have on hand. They couldn't do any of it, and the media 499 00:43:49.320 --> 00:43:52.199 didn't seem to care, and I saw people tagging at all the media, 500 00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:55.320 and then I didn't see any reporting on it. And I don't know if 501 00:43:55.320 --> 00:44:00.119 it's because it makes Biden look bad or they're concerned that they could contribute to 502 00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:06.320 a bank run or something. I don't know, but from what I saw 503 00:44:06.480 --> 00:44:10.599 people reacting to on Twitter, this is why platforms like Twitter are important, 504 00:44:12.760 --> 00:44:16.199 other than because initially I went to Downdetector and of course it showed that, 505 00:44:16.320 --> 00:44:21.159 yeah, things are haywire. I went to US banks social media. There's 506 00:44:21.199 --> 00:44:23.440 nothing on there. I went and looked in the regular you know stories, 507 00:44:23.599 --> 00:44:28.519 didn't see anything. I have to go and look at individual users on Twitter 508 00:44:28.559 --> 00:44:35.280 so I'm able to get a scope of what's going on people's experiences, and 509 00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:37.239 folks were like, people are having lunch, they go to pay for their 510 00:44:37.280 --> 00:44:43.800 lunch and they can't pay. What do you tell that restaurant? Sorry? 511 00:44:44.480 --> 00:44:50.880 US Banks having problems was baffling to me, A very informative of baffling, 512 00:44:50.920 --> 00:44:52.760 and I just thought it was a good reminder. Even if most of you 513 00:44:52.840 --> 00:44:57.920 probably don't or have never done business with US Bank, it could be any 514 00:44:57.960 --> 00:45:04.760 bank doesn't not just that one. And so you know, screw everyone who 515 00:45:04.760 --> 00:45:07.840 wants to go all digital on this stuff. All right, So I mentioned 516 00:45:07.880 --> 00:45:14.159 the comber talking about how the FBI is confirmed there is a document on a 517 00:45:15.239 --> 00:45:22.719 h An investigation on quote criminal bribery scheme involving Joe Biden. But maybe it 518 00:45:22.760 --> 00:45:28.280 clears him, maybe it damns him. I don't I don't know, but 519 00:45:28.400 --> 00:45:30.840 this is what they want in the FBI is like, now, we're not 520 00:45:30.880 --> 00:45:35.760 going to give it to you. So now they're saying that the members of 521 00:45:35.800 --> 00:45:43.039 Congress can go look at it, the drive over to FBI headquarters. You 522 00:45:43.079 --> 00:45:46.440 know what all that intended. That's not good enough according to the Oversight Committee. 523 00:45:46.440 --> 00:45:53.280 So we'll see. Now. What was interesting though yesterday was in a 524 00:45:53.599 --> 00:46:00.440 press conference. So in this case you have, um, the New York 525 00:46:00.440 --> 00:46:05.639 Post reporter Stephen Nelson, and his beat is the Pentagon. I've always said 526 00:46:05.679 --> 00:46:08.360 that when it comes to Washington, d C. Pressers, there's the White 527 00:46:08.400 --> 00:46:14.360 House one and then the second one is the Pentagon one as far as where 528 00:46:14.400 --> 00:46:19.679 things happen of importance, where you never know what you're gonna get. And 529 00:46:20.159 --> 00:46:25.280 retired Admiral John Kirby is the spokesperson there at the Pentagon. So anyway, 530 00:46:25.280 --> 00:46:29.559 they got him up there. Stephen Nelson is asking him and he brings up 531 00:46:29.599 --> 00:46:35.679 the pole and I said, Rasmussen's actually Harvard Harris. A new poll indicating 532 00:46:35.719 --> 00:46:40.840 that over half of all Americans fifty three percent, believe that Biden was involved 533 00:46:40.920 --> 00:46:49.960 in an illegal influence pedaling scheme. And what baffles me on this is how 534 00:46:50.079 --> 00:46:54.760 Kirby didn't see this coming. Just I mean, listen to this guy be 535 00:46:54.960 --> 00:47:01.400 rendered speechless. Developments in the House investigation into the First family's international business dealings 536 00:47:01.440 --> 00:47:06.599 recently, there's one committee trying to get an FBI bile alleging that President Biden 537 00:47:06.639 --> 00:47:09.159 took bribes. There's another i RS whistle blower who's a legend. There's a 538 00:47:09.199 --> 00:47:13.760 cover up an investigation the middle of this. There was a Hardard Harris hold 539 00:47:13.800 --> 00:47:16.679 this month that found that fifty three percent of the public, including a fourth 540 00:47:16.719 --> 00:47:22.440 of Democrats, believe quote Joe Biden was involved with his son in an illegal 541 00:47:22.599 --> 00:47:27.639 influenced pedaling scheme. There's, of course, evidence that the president interacted with 542 00:47:27.719 --> 00:47:31.440 his relatives associates from China, Mexico, Kazistan, Russia, and Ukraine. 543 00:47:31.840 --> 00:47:36.400 So what do you say to the majority of Americans who believed that the president 544 00:47:36.480 --> 00:47:45.239 is himself corrupt. Wow, yes, we impause the audio president the president. 545 00:47:45.320 --> 00:47:51.559 The president spoken to this. The president has spoken to this, and 546 00:47:51.639 --> 00:47:57.400 there's nothing to these claims. And as for the whistle blower issue that you 547 00:47:57.519 --> 00:48:02.480 talked about and the document, I believe the FBI has spoken to that and 548 00:48:02.519 --> 00:48:06.440 you're gonna have to go to them on that. All right. So there's 549 00:48:06.440 --> 00:48:10.039 a few takeaways here, not just John Kirby not having any answer, but 550 00:48:10.400 --> 00:48:17.840 do you hear his colleagues, do you hear the people around him? The 551 00:48:17.920 --> 00:48:22.360 other reporters correct me if I ross, I don't know if you have the 552 00:48:22.400 --> 00:48:25.920 same thing. Do they sound like they're annoyed that this guy asked that question? 553 00:48:27.920 --> 00:48:30.480 Yeah, and they're doing the thing they did like during the campaign, 554 00:48:30.559 --> 00:48:31.719 right where they've done the past or like, hey, what's up with this 555 00:48:32.000 --> 00:48:36.119 laptop here? And then the go to is, oh, that's been debunked, 556 00:48:36.719 --> 00:48:38.480 and then that's the answer. And then you have idiots like you know, 557 00:48:38.480 --> 00:48:40.960 clap it, like seals in the in the press corps that are like, 558 00:48:40.960 --> 00:48:44.039 you know, they're just falling like, oh, it's been debunked, 559 00:48:44.039 --> 00:48:46.400 and you can't just say something's been debunked to make it debunked, right, 560 00:48:47.159 --> 00:48:52.000 they say the president denied it, that's fine, but there's so much evidence 561 00:48:52.039 --> 00:48:54.199 in the other direction, right, And this is why the reporters bring it 562 00:48:54.280 --> 00:48:55.639 up, like, hey, what about all this? And you're like, 563 00:48:55.719 --> 00:49:00.880 put the president so there's nothing to it, okay, And I expect John 564 00:49:00.960 --> 00:49:04.320 Kirby to say that, you know what I'm saying, he's a spokeshole pointed 565 00:49:04.320 --> 00:49:07.360 by this pred I expect that, mister Dahmer, we found all these people 566 00:49:07.360 --> 00:49:12.719 in these barrels of acid in your apartment. This man's like, it's just 567 00:49:12.760 --> 00:49:16.840 pieces. I've already commented on this. It's been to bunks. They're in 568 00:49:16.880 --> 00:49:22.440 the barrels. His colleagues though, his colleagues sitting around there, and it's 569 00:49:22.480 --> 00:49:28.320 like this weird peer pressure thing, right, It's like they're all they're annoyed 570 00:49:28.360 --> 00:49:31.360 that he bought it up. That's what irritates me more than anything. Yeah, 571 00:49:31.360 --> 00:49:36.480 and he's great, And it's everything that they're saying that the previous administration 572 00:49:36.800 --> 00:49:38.599 was doing. Right, It's a constant what do you call it, the 573 00:49:38.639 --> 00:49:42.639 deflection whatever, Like hey, yeah, we're doing it, so we're gonna 574 00:49:42.679 --> 00:49:45.119 claim you do it, and then you we're not going to be investigated because 575 00:49:45.119 --> 00:49:49.199 the press is on our side. And and maybe that's why he was so 576 00:49:49.320 --> 00:49:52.159 baffled by it. He's like, oh my gosh, somebody, somebody, 577 00:49:52.280 --> 00:49:57.239 somebody actually brought it up. The hell's going on. I thought it was 578 00:49:57.280 --> 00:50:00.039 gonna be an easy day of just doing nothing around here. And it's not 579 00:50:00.119 --> 00:50:06.760 the first time, by the way, where we've had audio with Kirby where 580 00:50:07.320 --> 00:50:09.599 um, I can't remember what it was, what the topic was, where 581 00:50:10.400 --> 00:50:16.159 that like the Press Corps was pushing back on a reporter. So you got 582 00:50:16.159 --> 00:50:20.559 a bunch of moonbats over on the Pentagon beat man. They were pushing back 583 00:50:20.559 --> 00:50:22.519 on the reporter for asking a question, not even letting Kirby do it. 584 00:50:22.519 --> 00:50:29.280 It was crazy. So he asked a poll question, which is exactly the 585 00:50:29.400 --> 00:50:32.920 kind of question that you saw asked a thousand times of Trump right, or 586 00:50:32.960 --> 00:50:39.039 of Trump's people, even of the what did what did Trump call her milk 587 00:50:39.079 --> 00:50:51.960 toast milktoast mcininny or any of the predecessors there. So yeah, yeah, 588 00:50:52.159 --> 00:50:54.239 that that whole thing. Man. I'm sitting there watching that and a lot 589 00:50:54.280 --> 00:50:57.440 of people are like, look, he's speechless. I'm like, what the 590 00:50:57.480 --> 00:51:00.320 hell's with the colleagues that have not only have no interest in the answer, 591 00:51:00.440 --> 00:51:06.760 they're mad that the question was asked. All right, anyway, seven twenty 592 00:51:06.760 --> 00:51:10.360 two k c O Day Radio Program. Um, well, let's say, 593 00:51:10.519 --> 00:51:14.000 obviously we gotta take a break. When we come back. We got goose 594 00:51:14.079 --> 00:51:16.159 news to scientists, stuff, you name it all coming up. Hang on 595 00:51:16.280 --> 00:51:24.920 Joe, six point one FM Talk, real news, real talk. All 596 00:51:24.960 --> 00:51:30.760 right, seven twenty seven here on the CaCO Day Radio program. Pretty short 597 00:51:30.800 --> 00:51:35.599 segment here we got to talk sports betting too. Now that a key vote 598 00:51:35.639 --> 00:51:40.000 has taken place in North Carolina, looks like it's moving forward. I did 599 00:51:40.119 --> 00:51:49.000 see people were objecting to it and some testimony. I get. I get 600 00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:52.719 that there are people that have addiction to it. I truly do. But 601 00:51:52.480 --> 00:51:55.239 well, anyway, I'll lay out a few things. We'll get into that. 602 00:51:55.360 --> 00:51:59.480 Much more coming up here on the k c O Day Radio program. 603 00:51:59.519 --> 00:52:04.559 Hang on on a six point one ft Maam talk, Real news, real 604 00:52:04.760 --> 00:52:21.719 talk. So good morning, get a seven thirty six you're on the case 605 00:52:21.920 --> 00:52:24.960 O Day Radio program. Just give me a little peek behind the curtain. 606 00:52:25.320 --> 00:52:30.480 Um. One of the things that fills up my inbox. And um, 607 00:52:31.199 --> 00:52:37.719 they they the smart ones. Time it to during the day part, meaning 608 00:52:37.880 --> 00:52:40.400 you know, while the show's going on, are very close to it is 609 00:52:40.599 --> 00:52:47.440 pitches for interviews by UM, you know, pub publicity people. Right. 610 00:52:47.920 --> 00:52:52.039 So generally, if you're a semi if you're somebody wants to be higher profile 611 00:52:52.079 --> 00:52:54.559 and you want to be one of the talking heads on radio or TV, 612 00:52:55.280 --> 00:53:02.039 you hire an agent UM and then they send out mass press releases trying to 613 00:53:02.760 --> 00:53:07.400 and and they they put story pitches in there and then they attach whoever their 614 00:53:07.440 --> 00:53:13.880 clients are to it. And I respond to zero of them, but I 615 00:53:14.000 --> 00:53:16.559 do glance at them from time to time because occasionally there's a story. But 616 00:53:16.639 --> 00:53:21.639 there's one lady what was her name, Stephanie. I was put her first 617 00:53:21.719 --> 00:53:24.719 name here. I don't want you guys blowing her up. But she hers 618 00:53:24.719 --> 00:53:30.440 are at least interesting because she will go her niche is she's she'll go and 619 00:53:30.480 --> 00:53:35.360 she'll find all of these various studies and surveys and stuff that are out there, 620 00:53:35.400 --> 00:53:37.400 you know, the weird stuff here on the news, and then she'll 621 00:53:37.400 --> 00:53:42.679 attach clients of hers in an interview pitch. And from time to time, 622 00:53:42.719 --> 00:53:45.039 I've just taken the story, put it in the stack, and I never 623 00:53:45.079 --> 00:53:49.880 I never use her guests. So but um, so I was just scanning 624 00:53:49.920 --> 00:53:53.239 the one I got this morning, and so there's like five different studies in 625 00:53:53.320 --> 00:53:59.519 here, and m one of them is that Harvard Harris poll U that we 626 00:53:59.679 --> 00:54:04.079 talked about where fifty three percent of Americans believe that Joe Biden was involved in 627 00:54:04.199 --> 00:54:08.760 some influence peddling. So you know, that's that's the standard stuff. But 628 00:54:08.800 --> 00:54:17.280 then it gets to the weird h Cason point. Here's a study and I 629 00:54:17.880 --> 00:54:22.840 the expert. Who's the expert on this? It's a it's somebody who's in 630 00:54:22.880 --> 00:54:28.719 the funeral But now, why is somebody in the funeral business whatever? Apparently 631 00:54:28.719 --> 00:54:32.960 they own one of the largest collections of funeral homes in the Greater Los Angeles 632 00:54:34.000 --> 00:54:38.920 area. So a survey says that one in eight men have brought a condom 633 00:54:39.000 --> 00:54:45.800 to a funeral. Just in case, who does that study? Who thinks, 634 00:54:45.840 --> 00:54:52.800 hey, we need to do this, we need to we need to 635 00:54:52.840 --> 00:54:55.440 know what the true number is, and then sits down and does it. 636 00:54:57.639 --> 00:55:00.440 That's the stuff that baffles me. And then some guy is going to come 637 00:55:00.440 --> 00:55:02.079 on the radio and talk about it. No thanks, But then there's this 638 00:55:02.119 --> 00:55:06.880 one, and I'm not saying they should get the Presidential Medal of Freedom. 639 00:55:06.920 --> 00:55:15.519 But holy cow, So scientists I use the term loosely here. I mean, 640 00:55:15.800 --> 00:55:22.079 I'm sure they all have degrees. What is this science? Okay? 641 00:55:22.119 --> 00:55:25.239 So this is This is something that was actually published in the Plastic and Reconstructive 642 00:55:25.280 --> 00:55:31.760 Surgery Journal, which is apparently the big journal for plastic surgeons. Scientists set 643 00:55:31.760 --> 00:55:44.639 out to determine what makes the perfect breast bosom. How do they do it? 644 00:55:45.719 --> 00:55:49.559 They gathered over one thousand Wait, hold on, what's the number. 645 00:55:49.599 --> 00:55:53.159 I want to be very accurate here. They gathered one thousand and twenty one 646 00:55:53.280 --> 00:56:01.039 women and then evaluated, you know, what's going on there to try to 647 00:56:02.360 --> 00:56:09.599 cobble together an assessment that will say that this is the best that's out there. 648 00:56:10.199 --> 00:56:15.920 So these guys, these scientists figured out that they could not only receive 649 00:56:15.960 --> 00:56:22.039 funding, but spend days and months and I don't know how long it took 650 00:56:22.079 --> 00:56:28.760 him to do this, just staring at topless women and all they had to 651 00:56:28.760 --> 00:56:35.079 do was write a report when they were done. Genius. Do you think 652 00:56:35.079 --> 00:56:37.559 at that do you think at that point you're kind of sick of them? 653 00:56:39.840 --> 00:56:43.880 Right? Do you think you ever come home from a long day at the 654 00:56:43.960 --> 00:56:45.679 office, like if you're one of the I'm assuming that these are men, 655 00:56:46.079 --> 00:56:49.639 most of them. If I could just make this do you ever come home 656 00:56:49.920 --> 00:56:52.079 and your wife's say, hey, how are you doing? You know, 657 00:56:52.159 --> 00:56:57.920 get a little flirty, and you're like, I just can all day, 658 00:56:58.079 --> 00:57:00.639 all day I've been doing And then do you even tell her what you're doing? 659 00:57:00.719 --> 00:57:01.920 By the way it work? Rost do you think you're just sick of 660 00:57:01.960 --> 00:57:05.760 them at the end of the day after one thousand and twenty one participants on 661 00:57:05.800 --> 00:57:08.639 this grading scale, or probably you know, I don't think so. Yeah, 662 00:57:08.800 --> 00:57:12.079 you feel I think you need to do more research to be honest, 663 00:57:12.159 --> 00:57:14.679 because you want to be thorough. I mean, so you know what, 664 00:57:14.920 --> 00:57:16.760 Yeah, that's a that's a very good point. You need multiple studies so 665 00:57:16.800 --> 00:57:22.480 you can peer review each other. Right, what did some guys just like 666 00:57:22.519 --> 00:57:25.159 all right, So here's what we're gonna do. Here's our grand proposal. 667 00:57:27.360 --> 00:57:30.599 We're gonna stare at um, We're gonna stare at topless women all day? 668 00:57:30.199 --> 00:57:32.280 How many like ten? No no, no, no, no, more 669 00:57:32.920 --> 00:57:36.559 like like a hundred no no no no, no no more and more more? 670 00:57:36.559 --> 00:57:39.960 Like we need we need a really good sample size. So let's get 671 00:57:40.000 --> 00:57:45.559 a thousand or more and and and boom, they get a thousand and twenty 672 00:57:45.559 --> 00:57:52.679 one participants and and they're you know, they're they're taking notes, right or 673 00:57:52.719 --> 00:57:58.320 they're writing something on their pads, who the hell knows. And then they 674 00:57:58.400 --> 00:58:02.559 there's the pitches for a cosmetic surgeon. Anyway, So I just saw that 675 00:58:02.559 --> 00:58:08.400 where is it? Is? This from New York University? H scientists gathered 676 00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:17.480 the um the participants, let's see. I'm just trying to figure out what 677 00:58:17.559 --> 00:58:22.039 they And it's funny because I think there's a story here on the New York 678 00:58:22.079 --> 00:58:24.679 Post about it, except all the pictures of the best ones are all blurred. 679 00:58:27.519 --> 00:58:37.119 Why would you include the pictures? I don't you know what I I 680 00:58:37.119 --> 00:58:40.960 don't. I don't feel like I can read all the qualifications here. But 681 00:58:42.000 --> 00:58:52.840 they were. They were rated based on contour, poll fullness and perk ah 682 00:58:53.280 --> 00:59:00.320 craziness. Man, that's somebody's job. That's like, you know, that 683 00:59:00.360 --> 00:59:04.639 reminds me of It reminds me of those stories that we do where police or 684 00:59:04.679 --> 00:59:07.480 I have just rated a strip club that they had been surveilling for like what 685 00:59:07.800 --> 00:59:15.000 a year and a half, right, because you know, it was prostitution 686 00:59:15.119 --> 00:59:17.519 going on, or somebody was selling drugs there and like after an eight month 687 00:59:17.639 --> 00:59:23.519 investigation by undercover officers at the Gentleman's Club. And it's like, really took 688 00:59:23.559 --> 00:59:27.920 you eight months? So you had to get up for work every day and 689 00:59:28.000 --> 00:59:31.400 go down to the the you know, the the Gentleman's Club every day for 690 00:59:31.519 --> 00:59:38.559 eight months so you could you could infiltrate the place. But she needed eight 691 00:59:38.599 --> 00:59:45.960 months. I don't know, man, Like my home got broken into months. 692 00:59:45.039 --> 00:59:49.639 I think they spent a day on it. But no, you got 693 00:59:49.719 --> 00:59:52.280 you found the guy who was selling meth or whatever at the at the Gentleman's 694 00:59:52.280 --> 00:59:59.880 Club. Good for you. So anyway, all right eight eight, eight, 695 01:00:00.119 --> 01:00:06.159 nine, three four seven, eight seventy four, why do you got 696 01:00:06.159 --> 01:00:10.159 to ruin it? Sir? Don't ruin this. Let me just send me 697 01:00:10.159 --> 01:00:15.679 an email. Were they all technically women or was it Ben? Who were? 698 01:00:15.280 --> 01:00:19.159 You know what? I don't know and I don't care. Just let 699 01:00:19.239 --> 01:00:23.199 me have my my fun for a few minutes. Okay, I don't know. 700 01:00:23.760 --> 01:00:32.440 You'll read the study if you want. I mean, maybe to your 701 01:00:32.519 --> 01:00:36.920 question, possibly it is you know, New York universe, and they wouldn't 702 01:00:36.920 --> 01:00:42.800 want to discriminate obviously, so because you know, everyone's super woke in academia. 703 01:00:42.880 --> 01:00:45.960 But I don't know the answer to your question. All right, let 704 01:00:45.960 --> 01:00:47.119 me do that. Oh and then I was gonna get in the gambling thing. 705 01:00:47.119 --> 01:00:50.360 Well, let me do this. Let's grab race agent from the Weather 706 01:00:50.440 --> 01:00:52.079 Channel. First, dude, I'm telling you we got the wrong job. 707 01:00:53.199 --> 01:00:58.559 So it's this something you just discovered. No no, no, no, 708 01:00:58.559 --> 01:01:00.159 no no, but hear me out. Are you ready for this science? 709 01:01:00.199 --> 01:01:05.599 And so researchers at New York University set out to determine what is the best 710 01:01:06.920 --> 01:01:12.639 what are the best? And that best is obviously very open term set of 711 01:01:12.800 --> 01:01:16.639 breasts. And so they gathered one thousand and twenty one women and then they 712 01:01:16.760 --> 01:01:22.440 grated whatever they were packing. So they spent months staring at topless women and 713 01:01:22.480 --> 01:01:29.480 then wrote a report on it and got paid for it. That's the gig. 714 01:01:30.480 --> 01:01:35.119 That's the clouds and sunshine today. I'm just saying, man, I 715 01:01:35.239 --> 01:01:37.360 just somebody had to think that up, and then somebody funded that, and 716 01:01:37.400 --> 01:01:43.079 then somebody published that payers dollars. Right, those clouds look like boobs. 717 01:01:43.800 --> 01:01:46.400 Yeah, that's yeah, that's a good point. Ross if you look at 718 01:01:46.440 --> 01:01:50.639 the clouds and when they look like they look like hoots. So somebody gonna 719 01:01:50.679 --> 01:01:54.159 do chesticles chesticles in the sky so well, I guess there could be worst 720 01:01:54.239 --> 01:02:00.280 jobs like here we are, right, I've no I looked. We got 721 01:02:00.280 --> 01:02:01.840 a good gig. I mean, I listen, it's it's I love it. 722 01:02:01.920 --> 01:02:06.800 Twenty twenty seven years last week, by the way, um yeah, 723 01:02:06.920 --> 01:02:12.880 so but if you've got a topless woman next to the doppler just saying, 724 01:02:13.000 --> 01:02:16.119 just saying thanks anyway, we're camp appreciate it. Yeah, go ahead, 725 01:02:16.119 --> 01:02:22.719 thank you appreciate it. Yeah. Yeah. And luckily the doppler won't be 726 01:02:22.760 --> 01:02:25.360 all that active the next few days. It's more miss than hit on any 727 01:02:25.400 --> 01:02:30.119 kind of rainfall hit miss showers today and tomorrow, upper seventies, maybe some 728 01:02:30.159 --> 01:02:32.840 low eighties around, and the weekend looks pretty good. Lots of sunshine Saturday, 729 01:02:32.880 --> 01:02:36.239 a little more cloud on Sunday. We'll cool off a little bit with 730 01:02:36.280 --> 01:02:39.599 the front coming in. UM mid upper eighties on Saturday, than load of 731 01:02:39.599 --> 01:02:43.679 mid seventies on Sunday. So a little cool, with some fifties at nights. 732 01:02:43.679 --> 01:02:45.920 So pretty pleasant and most of the next week. Actually drive a mile 733 01:02:46.000 --> 01:02:49.679 two. When I went a little bit further ahead, Casey, I said, 734 01:02:49.679 --> 01:02:51.559 oh, let me see what's gonna happen in the next six to ten 735 01:02:51.639 --> 01:02:53.840 days and there really isn't a bunch of rain in the forecast, so I 736 01:02:53.880 --> 01:02:58.280 think we're getting into a more dry than wet weather pattern that's going to stick 737 01:02:58.280 --> 01:03:01.039 around for maybe a week or two. In the Tropics, first Dave hurricane 738 01:03:01.039 --> 01:03:06.000 season today. There is an invest area now in the Gulf of Mexico ninety 739 01:03:06.079 --> 01:03:09.079 one. L really not forecasts development anything with a name. That would be 740 01:03:09.199 --> 01:03:15.559 Arlene. That's the a storm, but heavy rain in and around that center 741 01:03:15.199 --> 01:03:17.840 and influencing the rain in Florida, which has been heavy. There's a flow 742 01:03:17.880 --> 01:03:21.559 to watch in South Florida. Blah blah blah. But hey, we're gonna 743 01:03:21.559 --> 01:03:23.559 have some of the nicest weather around. Um. You know, I'll be 744 01:03:23.599 --> 01:03:30.480 biased because I am baseball fans out there. INCAA tournament starts tomorrow evening in 745 01:03:30.559 --> 01:03:32.280 Clemson. The weather should be great all weekend and I'll be heading up for 746 01:03:34.039 --> 01:03:37.440 either the winner. Shouldn't have brought that up here, sorry, you know 747 01:03:37.480 --> 01:03:42.719 the host job that happened in North Carolina, right, I don't so. 748 01:03:42.760 --> 01:03:45.239 One of the top teams in the country is Campbell, which is a small 749 01:03:45.320 --> 01:03:50.079 university just south to Raleigh, Okay, and every other top six, the 750 01:03:50.119 --> 01:03:52.960 top sixteen teams all got a home. You're right, they're they're a host 751 01:03:53.239 --> 01:03:57.639 for the opening of the tournament. Campbell got hosed, they don't get to 752 01:03:57.679 --> 01:04:00.880 host, and Labburn got jammed in there because the NC double as so all 753 01:04:00.920 --> 01:04:04.960 over the SEC ran Yeah yeah, yeah, so they have to go to 754 01:04:05.119 --> 01:04:10.119 South Carolina. They're gonna play NC State. Oh but but yeah, they 755 01:04:10.119 --> 01:04:15.519 got completely jobs by the Yeah, Campbell University. All right, well, 756 01:04:15.519 --> 01:04:17.960 I'm gonna I'll follow them. Campbell's Camels. I think they're the Camels, 757 01:04:18.000 --> 01:04:21.079 Yeah, Camels. Who's up? And lip the Clemson plays lips lips Comb. 758 01:04:21.239 --> 01:04:25.320 I've never even heard of them. Lips Comb. I've heard of them 759 01:04:25.320 --> 01:04:29.320 only because I think they made the basketball tournament one time and I had to 760 01:04:29.320 --> 01:04:31.519 look up with thers. So we'll see whether it's, you know, for 761 01:04:31.519 --> 01:04:34.760 for baseball in the Southeast this weekend. It's gonna beautiful. So okay, 762 01:04:35.000 --> 01:04:38.760 all right, well there you go, Thank you, sir, appreciate it. 763 01:04:38.760 --> 01:04:41.920 We'll talk about now, okay, all right, seven forty eight Casey 764 01:04:41.960 --> 01:04:45.400 Oda Radio Program. Hang on one oh six point one FM Talk, Real 765 01:04:45.480 --> 01:05:02.639 News, Real Talk. All right. Seven fifty three Good Morning Body Radio 766 01:05:02.760 --> 01:05:11.639 program. Thanks for hanging out with us SO. In North Carolina, a 767 01:05:11.719 --> 01:05:20.719 bill that would bring about legalized sports betting has passed a key vote in the 768 01:05:21.039 --> 01:05:27.480 state Senate. As you can imagine, there is a lot of debate. 769 01:05:27.559 --> 01:05:31.880 There are people opposed to it, people folks who do want it. Obviously 770 01:05:31.920 --> 01:05:38.800 there's a tax revenue angle there which government folks love. That being said, 771 01:05:39.400 --> 01:05:44.039 some of the objections. Let's see here, let's see one of the people 772 01:05:44.119 --> 01:05:55.320 speaking out Clifford Zinner, whose son actually died. This is from ABC eleven, 773 01:05:55.360 --> 01:06:01.639 who died on his journey to be gambling addiction. He said that his 774 01:06:01.679 --> 01:06:09.000 son started gambling in high school, uh, sports only, but then that 775 01:06:09.119 --> 01:06:15.239 led to alcohol abuse and eventually a fentanyl overdose in March. You know, 776 01:06:15.320 --> 01:06:19.679 I look, I understand that there are you know, there are people with 777 01:06:19.719 --> 01:06:25.400 addictive personalities, which I which I frankly I don't even like that terminology, 778 01:06:25.840 --> 01:06:32.280 uh, because I think it undercuts really what what drives people, and I 779 01:06:32.719 --> 01:06:41.880 within my family, we've dealt with various aspects of addiction. That being said, 780 01:06:42.280 --> 01:06:46.800 UM, fentanyl is not legal. Sports gambling is uh technically not legal 781 01:06:46.800 --> 01:06:53.039 in North Carolina, but the availability is out there, and UM, you 782 01:06:53.079 --> 01:06:55.719 know, one of the things we're talking about is medical marijuana here in North 783 01:06:55.719 --> 01:07:00.599 Carolina and yeah beyond. I don't know where I come down with a lot 784 01:07:00.639 --> 01:07:05.519 of this stuff because I'm very libertarian on things. I just I just any 785 01:07:05.840 --> 01:07:10.639 anything out there, I just I don't necessarily know that I need government all 786 01:07:10.719 --> 01:07:15.960 up in the business. However, if government is making it illegal and there 787 01:07:15.000 --> 01:07:18.360 are possible penalties, then they're up in the business. Because people say, 788 01:07:18.360 --> 01:07:21.880 well, now government's getting into the business of sports betting, Well, they're 789 01:07:21.880 --> 01:07:26.039 already in the business. They're in the business of saying that it's illegal, 790 01:07:27.760 --> 01:07:30.000 or they're getting in the business of marijuana. They're already in the business of 791 01:07:30.079 --> 01:07:36.559 saying it's illegal. So I tend to take that more libertarian approach to these 792 01:07:36.559 --> 01:07:45.119 things. But I completely understand what folks go through. We we went through 793 01:07:45.199 --> 01:07:53.079 a addiction within my family where the individual I mean multiple it took multiple shots 794 01:07:53.079 --> 01:08:00.559 at rehab and thankfully it's now been well over a decade and everything's going great. 795 01:08:00.679 --> 01:08:04.360 But uh, it was, it was expensive, it was stressful, 796 01:08:04.559 --> 01:08:12.199 it was it was it was very hard on everybody. Um but you know, 797 01:08:12.239 --> 01:08:15.479 you put in the work and you do what you gotta do, So 798 01:08:15.560 --> 01:08:20.720 I get that. However, if somebody wants to bet on a sports game 799 01:08:20.760 --> 01:08:30.119 in North Carolina. Um, it's really easy. It's really easy. And 800 01:08:30.239 --> 01:08:36.560 so you know, um letting people do something that inherently really has no impact 801 01:08:36.800 --> 01:08:43.800 in in this sense, it has no impact from a A If I want 802 01:08:43.800 --> 01:08:47.560 to bet Ross, tonight is what tonight? Right? Is the NBA Finals 803 01:08:47.600 --> 01:08:51.039 first game, I think, not that I'm probably even gonna watch, but 804 01:08:51.399 --> 01:08:55.760 Denver and Miami. Right, So if Ross and I want to make a 805 01:08:55.800 --> 01:09:00.039 bet and Ross has Denver and I have Miami, and um, although I'd 806 01:09:00.039 --> 01:09:03.520 want it the other way and we want to bet ten dollars, I don't 807 01:09:03.560 --> 01:09:12.960 know that that's government's business, you know what I'm saying. So there's that, 808 01:09:13.239 --> 01:09:15.840 and uh, you know, I'll be straight because I've talked about it 809 01:09:15.880 --> 01:09:23.039 here on the show. I enjoy that. I do enjoy betting on sports, 810 01:09:23.279 --> 01:09:25.560 but I don't. But I'm a woos. I don't bet a lot 811 01:09:25.600 --> 01:09:29.520 of money. It's just like little little little things. But I know some 812 01:09:29.600 --> 01:09:32.159 guys that go crazy on that stuff. And I'm like, yeah, that 813 01:09:32.439 --> 01:09:40.319 sounds horrible, that sounds horrible how much money you're betting. I just it's 814 01:09:40.359 --> 01:09:43.840 just it's like an interest thing. It's like the fantasy football aspect of it. 815 01:09:45.279 --> 01:09:47.800 So you know, should there be a way to do that in North 816 01:09:47.840 --> 01:09:50.960 Carolinashia, government be out of the way and I'd be able to do business 817 01:09:51.039 --> 01:09:55.479 with um, you know a company who wants to do it, and it's 818 01:09:55.520 --> 01:10:00.119 on the up and up. I don't know that I'm necessarily I'm curious what 819 01:10:00.199 --> 01:10:04.680 you think though, And you know, I feel for this guy who obviously 820 01:10:04.760 --> 01:10:12.840 saw a whole host of addictive items tragically reach out and take his son from 821 01:10:12.920 --> 01:10:18.640 him. But um, I don't know. I think they still need to 822 01:10:18.640 --> 01:10:21.479 make it happen. Just my two cents eight eight, eight nine, three 823 01:10:21.560 --> 01:10:27.960 four seven eight seventy four. Very curious what you think they should do, 824 01:10:28.000 --> 01:11:12.920 because it looks like it may be happened. All right, Good morning everybody. 825 01:11:13.000 --> 01:11:19.840 It is eight o seven here on the k c O Day radio program. 826 01:11:20.119 --> 01:11:29.000 So, just because I hate when entertainment outlets, mediums all that good 827 01:11:29.000 --> 01:11:31.720 stuff, they do this and then you know, they make a change. 828 01:11:31.760 --> 01:11:34.520 They don't tell you stuff, even though you guys assume that even when we 829 01:11:34.560 --> 01:11:38.840 tell you're on vacation, we all got fired and we're not telling you if 830 01:11:38.840 --> 01:11:41.640 we got fired. Do you ever want to know if we got fired. 831 01:11:41.720 --> 01:11:44.680 Try to go to the website and if all of our stuff's gone, then 832 01:11:44.720 --> 01:11:48.159 you know, Okay, that's that's a good Indicatorum. Normally we chat with 833 01:11:48.439 --> 01:11:55.479 Mark Walker. But here's the rub um. Mark Walker is now a declared 834 01:11:55.520 --> 01:12:00.520 candidate for governor, and I know he was before last week, but there 835 01:12:00.680 --> 01:12:04.399 is um, there is a concept. I'm not gonna get the legally ease 836 01:12:04.520 --> 01:12:08.600 part of it because I'm not a lawyer. I don't think Ross. Would 837 01:12:08.640 --> 01:12:12.439 you check, Ross, gonna check real quick see if I'm a lawyer. 838 01:12:12.560 --> 01:12:15.399 I don't think I am. But let me check. No, you're not 839 01:12:15.399 --> 01:12:23.399 not a lawyer. Okay, all right, But it comes down to equal 840 01:12:23.439 --> 01:12:27.039 time, is what you hear. Although even and I found most candidates also 841 01:12:27.119 --> 01:12:30.399 don't understand how it works. Equal time is not a thing in the way 842 01:12:30.439 --> 01:12:36.039 that people think it is. However, conceptually it's still kind of a guiding 843 01:12:36.159 --> 01:12:41.079 light in how we do stuff. All right. So again, this is 844 01:12:41.119 --> 01:12:50.079 not legal advice. So if I had Mark on to talk about his favorite 845 01:12:50.159 --> 01:12:56.600 kinds of butterflies, that would be fine, right, and we're not getting 846 01:12:56.880 --> 01:13:00.279 But if I get into things that are campaigny kind kind of stuff, then 847 01:13:00.319 --> 01:13:03.680 you start running into an issue now with Mark, A lot of it was, 848 01:13:03.880 --> 01:13:10.000 you know, about the mechanisms and stuff of the you know, the 849 01:13:10.039 --> 01:13:14.840 inner workings of Congress, having you know, him having spent multiple terms up 850 01:13:14.840 --> 01:13:18.159 there in Congress. But now that he's running for governor and he doesn't hold 851 01:13:18.199 --> 01:13:23.399 a current elected office where I can talk about current elected stuff like we do 852 01:13:23.520 --> 01:13:26.680 with Mark Robinson. Even though you see how messy this gets real quick, 853 01:13:26.800 --> 01:13:29.399 but I wanted to be honest with you because I know there's some people that 854 01:13:29.560 --> 01:13:33.439 enjoy the weekly conversations that I have with Mark, and for right now, 855 01:13:34.880 --> 01:13:39.399 that's that's how that is. And we did have him on last week after 856 01:13:39.439 --> 01:13:44.399 he declared, but then it was newsworthiness. You see what I'm saying, 857 01:13:44.439 --> 01:13:49.319 which is kind of an exception to it. It's fun, which means basically, 858 01:13:49.359 --> 01:13:54.560 now I got a prep for you know, extra twenty minutes of content, 859 01:13:55.880 --> 01:13:58.520 whereas Ross and I didn't have to before and we could just sit around 860 01:13:58.560 --> 01:14:01.520 be lazy and then just make art fill it. So really, really we're 861 01:14:01.560 --> 01:14:06.239 the ones impacted here. We have to work. It's true, we are 862 01:14:06.239 --> 01:14:10.520 the true victims here. Yeah, I just say it's you know, we 863 01:14:10.560 --> 01:14:14.239 need we need uh some sort of reparations or something. I don't know, 864 01:14:14.279 --> 01:14:18.039 man pay us or at least some Olive Garden gift cards or something. I 865 01:14:18.079 --> 01:14:21.720 don't know. Uh, but yeah, so that's what's up with that, 866 01:14:21.800 --> 01:14:26.439 because I just I hate it when people don't say anything as to what's going 867 01:14:26.479 --> 01:14:30.560 on. Um well, sometimes you can't, but in this case we can. 868 01:14:30.600 --> 01:14:35.279 And I'm telling you that's what's up. So, Uh, everything's messy. 869 01:14:35.960 --> 01:14:41.520 Everything's messy. But um, it's campaign season. It's so messy that 870 01:14:41.640 --> 01:14:45.880 like literally campaigns or spine on other campaigns. How do I know? So 871 01:14:46.279 --> 01:14:54.640 did you watch the insanity with like the Desantists, the Desantists U spy thing. 872 01:14:55.279 --> 01:15:02.279 Okay, so Twitter right now between Trump and DeSantis, people's bonkers. 873 01:15:02.720 --> 01:15:05.920 I if frankly, if you can avoid it, I would recommend. But 874 01:15:06.039 --> 01:15:12.760 like like the Babylon Bee guy that got canned the other day, that was 875 01:15:12.800 --> 01:15:15.640 the big story for a while. Basically one of the Babylon be guys is 876 01:15:15.680 --> 01:15:18.760 a super Trump guy and he got into it with Christina Pershaw and I'm not 877 01:15:18.840 --> 01:15:23.319 I'm I'm I'm not gonna because I don't even I don't know that I know 878 01:15:23.399 --> 01:15:30.119 the totality of it. But basically he got into it with uh DeSantis's campaign's 879 01:15:30.439 --> 01:15:35.239 spokeswoman who used to be the governor spokeswoman but she transitioned to the campaign and 880 01:15:35.399 --> 01:15:41.720 it was a very kurt conversation. And then the guy who's the who started 881 01:15:41.720 --> 01:15:45.000 to be the boss over there, he got in on it and they went 882 01:15:45.039 --> 01:15:47.399 back and forth, and he fired the guy, but he said, there's 883 01:15:47.399 --> 01:15:51.960 some other stuff. So it's like people are digging in in these two camps. 884 01:15:53.199 --> 01:15:55.680 Well, one of the guys who's a big Trump guy out on Twitter, 885 01:15:55.760 --> 01:16:00.319 who's who really kind of started that head back and forth. He was 886 01:16:00.359 --> 01:16:06.840 posting about how members of the Santiss team are leaking details and audio of private 887 01:16:06.880 --> 01:16:14.319 strategy sessions, and so that started this whole thing online. But what really 888 01:16:14.359 --> 01:16:16.239 happened is it was it was part of a larger event, though it was 889 01:16:16.279 --> 01:16:19.439 not event open to the press or public, so it was there was some 890 01:16:19.520 --> 01:16:26.640 air of secrecy there somebody who is and I don't know, I'm not going 891 01:16:26.680 --> 01:16:30.279 to get into where their loyalties lie. People are saying that the guy is 892 01:16:30.319 --> 01:16:34.880 a Trump guy, but it doesn't matter if he's Mike Pence Chris Christie, 893 01:16:34.920 --> 01:16:39.800 who are both expected to announce. By the way, guy the fact is 894 01:16:39.880 --> 01:16:47.920 somebody from an opposition campaign pretended to be a superdnor and basically I don't know 895 01:16:47.960 --> 01:16:50.960 if they figured out that the guy wasn't going to be there and they just 896 01:16:51.199 --> 01:16:56.000 like got his name tag or how he got in there, but somebody from 897 01:16:56.039 --> 01:17:00.199 another campaign went in infiltrated into santis event which was supposed to be a private 898 01:17:00.239 --> 01:17:06.239 event. Along the lines of that event meant Romney did where video emerged of 899 01:17:06.399 --> 01:17:12.520 the you know, the forty seven percent or whatever, and they and they 900 01:17:12.600 --> 01:17:16.520 use that on him and then leaked it so that a narrative could be out 901 01:17:16.560 --> 01:17:21.279 there that DeSantis's team has fallen apart in leaking information. Oh yeah, it's 902 01:17:21.880 --> 01:17:26.479 everything's bonkers out there right now, and it's just going to get nastier and 903 01:17:26.600 --> 01:17:31.000 nastier. And yes, now Mike Pence is expected getting Chris Christie, who 904 01:17:32.960 --> 01:17:40.159 I don't understand what's going on here, Chris Christie. Chris Christie is flowing 905 01:17:40.199 --> 01:17:45.479 the idea of getting in the former New Jersey governor and his hype man is 906 01:17:45.760 --> 01:17:56.479 Hoerldo Rivera. Why, I guess would be my question, why on God's 907 01:17:56.479 --> 01:18:00.159 green Earth would Chris Christie think that he's And by the way, do you 908 01:18:00.199 --> 01:18:02.520 remember do you remember the pictures in the video of Chris Christie on stage with 909 01:18:02.560 --> 01:18:06.920 Trump back in the day, Remember he was he was Trump's boy for a 910 01:18:06.960 --> 01:18:13.159 while and then that fell apart. But it was like Trump like abuse that 911 01:18:13.239 --> 01:18:16.079 dude, made him look like an idiot. And I know they're like, 912 01:18:16.079 --> 01:18:18.279 oh, well, he has the bridge thing. Most people don't live in 913 01:18:18.319 --> 01:18:23.720 New Jersey or New York don't care about the bridge thing anyway. But like, 914 01:18:25.199 --> 01:18:30.800 I don't understand what the net benefit is other than to maybe bring his 915 01:18:30.960 --> 01:18:34.119 profile up, which I think is why a lot of these cats run. 916 01:18:34.600 --> 01:18:40.760 Get the profile up, and maybe, you know, parlay that into some 917 01:18:40.800 --> 01:18:45.920 sort of media gig or maybe somehow, some way you're able to fundraise and 918 01:18:45.960 --> 01:18:49.079 you transfer enough money to the eventual winning candidate that you get a position of 919 01:18:49.119 --> 01:18:55.479 some sort. But yeah, Caeralda Rivera tweeting yesterday, Chris Christie is a 920 01:18:55.520 --> 01:19:00.359 badass. Remember he was Godzilla in New Jersey before he got trash and the 921 01:19:00.359 --> 01:19:03.439 big bridge tobacle. He's going to have an impact on the early race and 922 01:19:03.520 --> 01:19:09.640 beyond. Yeah, again, Heraldo's New York guys, So the bridge thing. 923 01:19:09.680 --> 01:19:14.760 Most people don't care. They remember Chris Christie is looking like an idiot 924 01:19:14.800 --> 01:19:18.279 on stage with Trump and that picture of him and his wife sitting on the 925 01:19:18.279 --> 01:19:27.920 beach when all the beaches were closed, just lounging around. And basically, 926 01:19:27.960 --> 01:19:30.680 if you just make a campaign add out of that, who they're going to 927 01:19:30.800 --> 01:19:35.159 destroy him. But yeah, more and more people getting in, That's what 928 01:19:35.239 --> 01:19:42.079 we're finding out. Both Mike Pence and Chris Christie expected to announce that they're 929 01:19:42.119 --> 01:19:47.600 getting into the GOP presidential primary race. So we will see. All right, 930 01:19:49.520 --> 01:19:58.279 I'm curious what you think of this. Oh here we go. Oh 931 01:19:58.279 --> 01:20:00.000 well, and then also just real quick on the Mic Pence thing for a 932 01:20:00.039 --> 01:20:04.359 switchover, what is Mike Pence doing? Now? Trump's already said that if 933 01:20:04.399 --> 01:20:11.600 he gets the nomination, Pence is not his dude, does Mike Pence? 934 01:20:11.920 --> 01:20:15.039 I mean, I, yes, I understand he was vice president of the 935 01:20:15.119 --> 01:20:20.279 United States? I get that. What is the what is the what does 936 01:20:20.319 --> 01:20:26.119 Mike Pence think he has from a momentum standpoint? Because he really he didn't 937 01:20:26.119 --> 01:20:30.920 get momentum rolling even when he was the vice president or the vice president nominee 938 01:20:30.520 --> 01:20:38.920 during the Trump term or the Trump election in twenty sixteen. I just I 939 01:20:38.920 --> 01:20:42.680 don't know that he has the gravitas to get up there and sit. But 940 01:20:42.840 --> 01:20:45.920 who knows, maybe, and you don't look you don't have to be the 941 01:20:46.039 --> 01:20:50.479 upper echelon to have the personality to do it. Tim Scott is a good 942 01:20:50.479 --> 01:20:54.279 example. Have you ever watched Tim Scot. I've seen him speak live before. 943 01:20:54.720 --> 01:21:00.920 Tim Scott's great and uh he's you know, fire as they say, 944 01:21:00.920 --> 01:21:06.479 a smart dude. Yeah, like I I get that. I get why. 945 01:21:06.560 --> 01:21:10.760 There may be some appeal there with Tim Scott and it'll be interesting to 946 01:21:10.800 --> 01:21:15.880 see where it goes. Asa Hutchinson, Yeah, I mean he was a 947 01:21:15.920 --> 01:21:20.720 governor, got it? Nikki Hayley, Larry Elder, I mean he's radio 948 01:21:20.760 --> 01:21:27.159 guy. So a lot of radio guys think they should be a politic because 949 01:21:27.159 --> 01:21:29.880 you're just adjacent to it. And I gotta be honest, man, I 950 01:21:29.920 --> 01:21:36.479 want nothing to do with it. And the guy I enjoy watching, especially 951 01:21:36.520 --> 01:21:43.760 when he goes on like MSNBC is what's his name of the vecu Ramaswamy who's 952 01:21:43.800 --> 01:21:47.039 like literally a scientist and was being like cut down by Chuck Todd or somebody 953 01:21:47.279 --> 01:21:50.359 on one of the shows and it's like no, no, no, dude, 954 01:21:50.399 --> 01:21:56.640 I literally this is my field. They were just all disrespecting, he's 955 01:21:56.760 --> 01:22:00.000 entertaining at least. But yeah, so it's shape it up. I don't 956 01:22:00.000 --> 01:22:04.840 know if we'll get to sixteen again, which is what Trump was up against 957 01:22:05.159 --> 01:22:10.439 during the twenty sixteen election, but if you remember how insane it was, 958 01:22:11.000 --> 01:22:14.479 I just want you to know that we are well on our way to that 959 01:22:14.560 --> 01:22:17.239 same level of insanity. Between that and the crazy memes that are out there, 960 01:22:19.560 --> 01:22:23.399 we're getting into this thing, all right. Eight eight eight nine three 961 01:22:23.520 --> 01:22:27.880 four seven eight seven four. You want to be on the show, That's 962 01:22:27.880 --> 01:22:30.000 how you make it happen when we come back. Here's what I want to 963 01:22:30.039 --> 01:22:34.600 talk about. The State of New York. And this has been proposed in 964 01:22:34.680 --> 01:22:40.439 North Carolina and many other states is pushing through what is known as the Clean 965 01:22:40.640 --> 01:22:43.680 Slate Act. And I got to tell you, I'm kind of torn on 966 01:22:43.720 --> 01:22:46.760 this. I'm kind of torn. But this is one of those bills that 967 01:22:47.000 --> 01:22:53.680 is is a party bill, Big labor likes it. So you have Democrats 968 01:22:53.680 --> 01:22:57.920 in many many states wanting to do this, and you even have some Republicans 969 01:22:57.920 --> 01:23:03.640 wanting to do this. But I don't know, because um, they're having 970 01:23:03.640 --> 01:23:10.520 to really slice and dice um how they're how they are assigning who will or 971 01:23:10.680 --> 01:23:15.319 won't be allowed to avail themselves of the bill. It's a little mysterious, 972 01:23:15.319 --> 01:23:17.840 but I'll lay it all out for you. I'll do it next here on 973 01:23:17.840 --> 01:23:45.279 the CACODAY radio program, Real News, Real Talk, A Good Morning, 974 01:23:45.359 --> 01:23:49.039 A twenty three here on the CACODA radio program. And we got a little 975 01:23:49.079 --> 01:23:54.079 taste of this in North Carolina. And then obviously there was some rulings with 976 01:23:54.199 --> 01:24:00.239 the Supreme Court here and then some re rulings, But basically it's you know, 977 01:24:00.279 --> 01:24:01.520 what do you do with folks? I think actually we've made a little 978 01:24:01.520 --> 01:24:04.720 mention this yesterday based on another story. What do you do with folks who 979 01:24:05.479 --> 01:24:09.760 go, you know, commit a crime, get convicted, go to jail, 980 01:24:10.680 --> 01:24:16.039 go to prison, I should say, and eventually get out. I 981 01:24:16.119 --> 01:24:26.119 am. I am very much aware of these struggles. And some people would 982 01:24:26.119 --> 01:24:29.720 say, look, those struggles are part of you going out and deciding to 983 01:24:29.760 --> 01:24:34.880 commit crimes, and to some extent, I get that, right, But 984 01:24:35.039 --> 01:24:43.880 also if you don't want people to be recidivous, and it's it's it's so 985 01:24:44.000 --> 01:24:46.600 difficult for them to come out and actually make an honest living, right, 986 01:24:46.640 --> 01:24:49.880 there has to be a fine line there, Uh, Those those folks who 987 01:24:49.880 --> 01:24:53.680 may have a skill set that allows them to think that they're going to get 988 01:24:53.680 --> 01:24:58.079 away with crime, even though they didn't that one time, may be inclined 989 01:24:58.119 --> 01:25:01.720 to commit more crime. So you try to think it through as an exercise 990 01:25:01.880 --> 01:25:06.720 in uh, you know, how do we decrease criminal activity within society, 991 01:25:08.760 --> 01:25:11.760 which you know, arguably that's going to be a net benefit for everybody, 992 01:25:11.840 --> 01:25:15.119 right, less crimes, that's a good thing. In the debate is always 993 01:25:15.119 --> 01:25:20.119 how do we get there? So I am sympathetic to people come out and 994 01:25:20.439 --> 01:25:27.119 find a lot of opportunities closed off to them, which in many cases makes 995 01:25:27.119 --> 01:25:30.640 sense. Right, if you have you committed some big financial crime, you 996 01:25:30.680 --> 01:25:33.199 probably shouldn't be running the books, you know, uh, you know, 997 01:25:33.239 --> 01:25:36.920 handling a bunch of money somewhere. And I also understand why business owners would 998 01:25:38.000 --> 01:25:42.399 want to be armed with that information. The story we did yesterday was of 999 01:25:42.439 --> 01:25:49.159 the insane uh woman who was screaming at our fellow board member in Seattle because 1000 01:25:49.600 --> 01:25:55.319 they were trying to nominate a homeless dude who was also a sex offender to 1001 01:25:55.520 --> 01:25:59.279 be on the homeless Advisory Board. I think he was gonna he was gonna 1002 01:25:59.279 --> 01:26:04.520 be like the head of it, and he had raped children. And also, 1003 01:26:04.800 --> 01:26:11.399 according to the woman who was objecting who brought it up, he sexually 1004 01:26:11.399 --> 01:26:14.800 assaulted her in some way, shape or form, and the other board members 1005 01:26:14.840 --> 01:26:20.960 start screaming about equity. It was bonkers, bonkers, Audio Shane, No, 1006 01:26:21.119 --> 01:26:25.279 they need housing two and they all of this, and it's like, 1007 01:26:25.359 --> 01:26:29.039 well, you know, if you're multip you've raped multiple children, I have 1008 01:26:29.119 --> 01:26:33.399 some housing options for you. You're not gonna like them, but maybe not 1009 01:26:33.520 --> 01:26:40.479 sharing a board is a good thing. So in with all of that said, 1010 01:26:40.680 --> 01:26:44.119 states are figuring out what they're going to do. We had our own 1011 01:26:44.119 --> 01:26:46.920 thing in North Carolina. We're figuring out when does the restoration of voting rights 1012 01:26:46.960 --> 01:26:51.960 become okay? And it is it when you get out? Is it when 1013 01:26:51.960 --> 01:26:56.359 you've paid all your fines, done all your probation, And that debate rages 1014 01:26:56.439 --> 01:27:01.800 on. In New York, a new bill called clean Late would seal criminal 1015 01:27:01.880 --> 01:27:06.560 records for the vast majority of crimes, for both misdemeanors and felonies once the 1016 01:27:06.800 --> 01:27:13.319 x cons serve their time, and that would include murder. So somebody could 1017 01:27:13.359 --> 01:27:20.680 go to prison for murder, get out, and after completing their sentence they 1018 01:27:20.720 --> 01:27:25.520 would be able to seal it off. So nobody, with some exceptions, 1019 01:27:25.560 --> 01:27:30.119 would have access to it. The majority of employers wouldn't have access. Now, 1020 01:27:30.159 --> 01:27:39.279 the exceptions would be for ironically, some law enforcement courts, prosecutors, 1021 01:27:39.319 --> 01:27:45.880 schools, and uber ubers I guess what, the murder driving the uber and 1022 01:27:45.960 --> 01:27:49.800 a few others. However, they're debating like which crimes would would they even 1023 01:27:49.840 --> 01:27:55.880 have access to? Now? I believe sex crimes would be ineligible, so 1024 01:27:55.920 --> 01:28:00.199 those would stay out there. And and but they're going to do this thing. 1025 01:28:00.199 --> 01:28:02.479 They're just hammering out what it's gonna look like. But you know, 1026 01:28:02.560 --> 01:28:09.079 the argument is if some guy went to jail because he got did something dumb 1027 01:28:09.079 --> 01:28:16.159 when he was twenty three and he's thirty, now should that be something an 1028 01:28:16.159 --> 01:28:21.000 employer can look at in making a hiring decision. And obviously many employers are 1029 01:28:21.000 --> 01:28:24.239 like, yeah, we should be in the unions that you shouldn't be. 1030 01:28:24.760 --> 01:28:28.520 So my question is, well we'll dive into it. Hang on on only 1031 01:28:28.600 --> 01:28:36.399 six point one FM Talk, Real news, Real talk, all right, 1032 01:28:36.479 --> 01:28:42.399 eight thirty six, Good morning Cacoda radio program. All right, real quick, 1033 01:28:42.439 --> 01:28:45.119 let me in then, well get some phone calls. Yeah, so 1034 01:28:45.239 --> 01:28:46.920 up in New York, this clean slate hack looks like it's going to go 1035 01:28:46.960 --> 01:28:50.239 through. They're just arguing which you know, which offenses are going to be 1036 01:28:50.239 --> 01:28:54.479 in there and which aren't. But basically, once you do, once you 1037 01:28:54.520 --> 01:28:59.680 do your time, then it's not going to show up anymore. Ironically, 1038 01:28:59.680 --> 01:29:04.319 of course, it will show up for law enforcement purposes, but if an 1039 01:29:04.319 --> 01:29:09.960 employer tries to do any sort of background or that, the problem is, 1040 01:29:10.000 --> 01:29:14.279 I don't know how you're going to control the internet right or the you know, 1041 01:29:14.319 --> 01:29:18.479 any of the mug shot sites like that. Stuff's still going to be 1042 01:29:18.520 --> 01:29:21.760 out there, but I guess it won't officially. The problem is, according 1043 01:29:21.800 --> 01:29:28.920 to some employers, is they want they want full access. They want full 1044 01:29:28.960 --> 01:29:32.279 access, and it would include also not showing people who've been convicted of murder 1045 01:29:32.319 --> 01:29:40.520 if they've done their time, and I, you know, I don't know, 1046 01:29:41.880 --> 01:29:45.600 I don't know. I do find it interesting though, because I'll bet 1047 01:29:45.640 --> 01:29:49.840 traffic tickets are still in there for my insurance company to look at. I 1048 01:29:49.960 --> 01:29:56.399 see that's not part of this, but I digress, all right, So 1049 01:29:56.640 --> 01:29:59.560 if you want to weigh in on that, because those proposals are not just 1050 01:29:59.600 --> 01:30:03.039 in New York there everywhere they've been proposed here in little pieces of it have 1051 01:30:03.159 --> 01:30:09.479 been the focus of debate in North Carolina Supreme Court decisions this year, So 1052 01:30:09.560 --> 01:30:12.560 you can let us know. Look, Boston Paul's here, all right, 1053 01:30:12.680 --> 01:30:15.960 Boston Paul's the one who gave all these people charges anyway, So what's up, 1054 01:30:16.000 --> 01:30:19.159 Boston Paul. Well, you know what, I agree with that clean 1055 01:30:19.199 --> 01:30:25.119 slate thing for crimes that have been decriminalized, such as I wanta crimes and 1056 01:30:25.159 --> 01:30:29.520 you are drinking and publicly you could do that now in downtown anywhere, you 1057 01:30:29.600 --> 01:30:33.159 know. So yeah, But for murder or I don't think so. And 1058 01:30:33.560 --> 01:30:38.279 and for Trump, all these people jumping in just makes it great for him. 1059 01:30:38.359 --> 01:30:41.079 You know, he's got a solid day. So the more to Marriot, 1060 01:30:41.640 --> 01:30:44.079 I think a few of them are just looking for the number two spot. 1061 01:30:45.439 --> 01:30:47.520 Yeah, I mean to some extent that that that is again, that's 1062 01:30:47.600 --> 01:30:50.960 part of the profile growing that that may be out there. But as we 1063 01:30:51.000 --> 01:30:56.359 saw, he didn't grab any of those other sixteen cats last time around. 1064 01:30:56.359 --> 01:31:00.479 He went and found somebody else. So he is the nominee. Who knows? 1065 01:31:00.560 --> 01:31:03.640 Man, I don't know, but d Christie and uh and how could 1066 01:31:03.640 --> 01:31:08.439 be there at the end whatever they were doing, I don't they were they 1067 01:31:08.439 --> 01:31:11.840 were they were pushing for something themselves, but they didn't get it. But 1068 01:31:11.960 --> 01:31:15.159 anyway, so hold on, hold on eight months, eight months to do 1069 01:31:15.319 --> 01:31:20.560 an undercover operation at a at a strip club. Well, you don't understand 1070 01:31:20.600 --> 01:31:26.359 how that works, you know that? Oh my goodness, there's there's so 1071 01:31:26.520 --> 01:31:30.079 much to that, you know, you know, you you have to first 1072 01:31:30.079 --> 01:31:33.640 of all, you have to get a tree requisits for a few hundred dollars 1073 01:31:33.640 --> 01:31:39.680 and ones and two dollar bills sometimes five h that has to go to and 1074 01:31:39.880 --> 01:31:42.760 but still while you're waiting for that to pass through, you still have to 1075 01:31:42.760 --> 01:31:45.520 conduct your operations. Then you get reimbarrassed for that later on, you know, 1076 01:31:45.560 --> 01:31:49.079 through that money that's been allocated. But you know, it could take 1077 01:31:49.199 --> 01:31:51.479 it could take even up to a year and a half. I know, 1078 01:31:51.760 --> 01:31:56.119 I know some people that haven't been involved in something over a year. Yeah, 1079 01:31:56.319 --> 01:31:59.560 over a year. There's a lot of nuances to it. Yeah, 1080 01:32:00.079 --> 01:32:04.880 there's a lot of the nnswers I see. Yes, yes, you know 1081 01:32:04.960 --> 01:32:10.600 you want a solid case. You know it is not they're gonna pry those 1082 01:32:10.760 --> 01:32:15.720 those nails open, you know, qualified all the other all the nails are 1083 01:32:17.479 --> 01:32:21.319 hey. But anyway, I was in the Nashville crazy man. I mean, 1084 01:32:21.560 --> 01:32:26.239 because it could be ten o'clock in the morning, and everybody's struck it's 1085 01:32:26.239 --> 01:32:30.760 cool. And then the girls are riding the bus and and they're picking up 1086 01:32:30.800 --> 01:32:33.199 their ship and flat as everybody. Wait, wait, hold on, So 1087 01:32:33.279 --> 01:32:36.760 you're in Nashville. Everyone's drunk at ten am and girls are flashing you. 1088 01:32:38.479 --> 01:32:43.079 Yeah, why did you come? Stay? Well, you know you can't 1089 01:32:43.159 --> 01:32:46.560 stay forever. I know people who live in Nashville. Our old boss lives 1090 01:32:46.560 --> 01:32:54.520 in Nashville. Why tell the wife you're moving or what? No? No, 1091 01:32:54.520 --> 01:33:00.720 no, no, we'll just put that on the anyway. All right, 1092 01:33:01.000 --> 01:33:04.920 I'm bad. I'm glad you're back. Hey, enjoy the Celtics game. 1093 01:33:04.960 --> 01:33:09.239 Oh that's right, that's not tonight. Yeah. I don't do basketball, 1094 01:33:09.720 --> 01:33:14.359 okay, you that Why would I know that? You just what he's 1095 01:33:15.399 --> 01:33:17.079 what does he do? He day drinks at ten am and watch his girls 1096 01:33:17.079 --> 01:33:23.680 flash there? You know they're hoots at people. Is that really? I 1097 01:33:23.720 --> 01:33:28.880 was? I've been in Nashville a few times. I don't remember that Rajier 1098 01:33:28.960 --> 01:33:32.439 been in Nashville. Yeah, Markie's family lives near there. That's what I 1099 01:33:32.479 --> 01:33:36.279 thought. Yeah, was that your experience? Was it just a drunken debaca 1100 01:33:38.079 --> 01:33:42.760 that was not? Okay? Are you sure you weren't in New Orleans, 1101 01:33:42.800 --> 01:33:48.600 Boston, Paul, and it was in February. Probably want to go get 1102 01:33:48.640 --> 01:33:53.399 one of those cognitive tests. I don't know, man. I get a 1103 01:33:53.399 --> 01:33:57.279 lot of email here too from folks. Uh, let's see here do do 1104 01:33:57.399 --> 01:34:08.199 do do? Wow? Yeah? See, because you know I get it. 1105 01:34:09.640 --> 01:34:12.159 One of our listeners. When I was seventeen, I shot someone in 1106 01:34:12.199 --> 01:34:16.119 self defense, but because of the murkiness of the case, eventually I pled 1107 01:34:16.159 --> 01:34:23.399 to voluntary manslaughter, a short prison time a few years, three years, 1108 01:34:23.399 --> 01:34:28.880 paid all my fines court costs, no other charges besides that. Now I'm 1109 01:34:28.920 --> 01:34:30.880 in my thirties, and I can tell you it is almost impossible to find 1110 01:34:30.880 --> 01:34:35.560 a good job. I'm lucky in my current job. However, if I 1111 01:34:35.600 --> 01:34:39.720 look for if I were to look for anything better, the door would get 1112 01:34:39.760 --> 01:34:44.479 slammed in my face. I've done many interviews where everything looks positive, but 1113 01:34:44.560 --> 01:34:49.680 the background check gets me turned down. In fact, I was even offered 1114 01:34:49.680 --> 01:35:00.399 a job once and then they then unoffered it within an hour. Yeah see, 1115 01:35:00.439 --> 01:35:04.960 and no other offenses. Now that he's married with kids, and this 1116 01:35:05.279 --> 01:35:09.680 is this is why I am sympathetic to it. And you know I don't 1117 01:35:10.319 --> 01:35:13.800 I don't know how you structure something like that, because I also understand. 1118 01:35:14.920 --> 01:35:18.600 I also understand that the different crimes. There are different crimes where there's a 1119 01:35:18.640 --> 01:35:27.880 higher recidivism rate. There are crimes where, um, you may not have 1120 01:35:27.920 --> 01:35:31.520 reoffended because the opportunity didn't present, like somebody who's in a position to embezzle 1121 01:35:32.000 --> 01:35:35.640 from a business because they have some sort of control of their finances. Right. 1122 01:35:36.199 --> 01:35:39.880 Well, obviously if you do it once and you get busted for it, 1123 01:35:40.720 --> 01:35:43.560 you can get caught. And maybe you didn't do it for five years 1124 01:35:43.640 --> 01:35:46.159 after you got out, But maybe you didn't do it because you weren't literally 1125 01:35:46.199 --> 01:35:53.600 in a position to be able to do it. So it's messy and I 1126 01:35:53.640 --> 01:35:56.119 don't know what the answer is. But this is why I wanted to bring 1127 01:35:56.159 --> 01:35:59.760 it up, because I feel like there is some middle ground here. But 1128 01:36:00.119 --> 01:36:04.319 I started laughing when traffic tickets weren't on there so that they can jack here 1129 01:36:04.359 --> 01:36:08.800 insurance rates. It's like, oh, okay, those ones those are and 1130 01:36:08.840 --> 01:36:11.680 the point systems within the states that have them, those are still in there. 1131 01:36:12.920 --> 01:36:15.119 Of course you're going to keep yours all right. Eight forty three raced 1132 01:36:15.159 --> 01:36:19.640 Aga from the weather Channel. He's here, He's got weather, and he's 1133 01:36:19.640 --> 01:36:23.800 finally got good weather news, not that crap he was teddling last week. 1134 01:36:23.880 --> 01:36:27.479 So yeah, I mean compared to last weekend, the weekend coming up, 1135 01:36:27.520 --> 01:36:30.880 it's gonna be great. We'll have a little bit of a cooling trend briefly, 1136 01:36:30.079 --> 01:36:34.920 and I mean not really getting too cool, but back maybe slightly below 1137 01:36:34.960 --> 01:36:39.159 what we'd like to call normal this time of year, but right back up 1138 01:36:39.439 --> 01:36:42.039 and maybe above average as we get into next week. For example, the 1139 01:36:42.119 --> 01:36:45.039 average high for Raleigh this time of year is eighty four. Out of the 1140 01:36:45.079 --> 01:36:48.720 triad, it's eighty one degrees today. Most of us near those numbers, 1141 01:36:49.239 --> 01:36:54.079 likely going to be in that range of the lower to maybe some middle eighties 1142 01:36:54.279 --> 01:36:57.119 or maybe a shower of this afternoon. Had a little more clouds start to 1143 01:36:57.119 --> 01:37:00.399 come in from the east right now, and they may produce a showery tonight, 1144 01:37:00.479 --> 01:37:02.920 load amid sixties. Tomorrow, most in the low eighties, partly sunny, 1145 01:37:02.960 --> 01:37:08.359 and again in the afternoon not much an isolated shower thundershower, most of 1146 01:37:08.439 --> 01:37:11.840 us nothing sunny. Warmest day of this next stretch will be Saturday, mid 1147 01:37:11.960 --> 01:37:15.600 up or eighties. Good pool day, great, great lake day, and 1148 01:37:15.640 --> 01:37:16.920 maybe we can head to the beach, and things look a lot better there 1149 01:37:17.359 --> 01:37:19.920 as you get out near that at the outer banks. And then Sunday we 1150 01:37:20.079 --> 01:37:23.760 cool off to the mid seventies. We're back into the eighties next week, 1151 01:37:23.800 --> 01:37:26.520 and you know, kase I looked ahead and said, it looks like the 1152 01:37:26.560 --> 01:37:29.479 next week, maybe ten days, we may not see much in the way 1153 01:37:29.520 --> 01:37:31.960 of rain at all, as the southeast looks like it's going to be more 1154 01:37:32.199 --> 01:37:39.039 dry than wet. Right after we spoke last hour, that invest area in 1155 01:37:39.079 --> 01:37:42.439 the Gulf, they jumped it from twenty percent chance of developing and not really 1156 01:37:42.479 --> 01:37:45.119 looking like much to now a fifty percent chance of development. But it is 1157 01:37:45.159 --> 01:37:49.560 heading south and away from US and probably heading towards Cuba, but still bringing 1158 01:37:50.159 --> 01:37:56.199 some heavy rainfall into parts of South Florida indirectly not directly impacted with that, 1159 01:37:56.279 --> 01:38:00.359 but he who knows. Now they're starting to chatter about maybe a depression or 1160 01:38:00.079 --> 01:38:02.800 a storm forming, which would be the A name on the list, I 1161 01:38:02.800 --> 01:38:08.000 would be Arlene. So you start hearing that name getting thrown around, you 1162 01:38:08.039 --> 01:38:11.119 want to know where it is, where it's going Arlene, I believe it 1163 01:38:11.239 --> 01:38:14.199 is. Yeah, I think Carlene's the first name. Is it just older 1164 01:38:14.239 --> 01:38:16.279 women's names this year or what are we doing? Um no, I don't 1165 01:38:16.279 --> 01:38:20.560 think mostly older women. So old men in there too, like Brett Arlene 1166 01:38:20.880 --> 01:38:27.119 Brett Brett, Yeah no, Bret's not an old man. But Don is 1167 01:38:27.920 --> 01:38:30.640 don seems like a little bit. Now anytime you're Donna gives some angry people 1168 01:38:30.680 --> 01:38:33.920 calling Don Williams. Yeah, I know, but may we do that anyway? 1169 01:38:33.960 --> 01:38:36.920 So yeah, so if you start hearing a name getting thrown around, 1170 01:38:38.439 --> 01:38:42.720 potentially could briefly become a storm. So hey, things changed, and to 1171 01:38:42.800 --> 01:38:45.279 me they changed pretty rapidly too. This morning early there girt, Yeah, 1172 01:38:45.279 --> 01:38:47.920 it's girt on it. Yep, there's a girt on there. Yep. 1173 01:38:48.520 --> 01:38:51.479 A day Yeah, I don't even know. Ohhel Yeah, the jokes right 1174 01:38:51.560 --> 01:38:55.920 themselves. If we get to the os, yeah, I hope we don't 1175 01:38:55.960 --> 01:38:59.399 get there. We got a Vince too, he'll take everything you got. 1176 01:39:00.359 --> 01:39:02.479 Yeah, all right, I like the one syllables Vincent, Sean and all 1177 01:39:02.520 --> 01:39:04.920 that stuff.

Ophelia, 1179 01:39:10.960 --> 01:39:15.000 Dirt, Nigel, But Nigel is not gonna do anything to you. Oh, 1180 01:39:15.079 --> 01:39:20.760 Akatia, that's at hurricane sounds smoke show, Idelia.

But well, 1183 01:39:32.159 --> 01:39:34.840 we'll have to get there for it to happen anyway. Eight forty seven. 1184 01:39:35.199 --> 01:39:51.239 We'll get your Bloomberg update next. Hang on Talk w PTI, two stations 1185 01:39:51.359 --> 01:39:57.760 driving the best in talk. This is Casey O Day and Carolina's Morning News. 1186 01:39:58.760 --> 01:40:02.760 Alright, good morning, eight fifty one Jeff Bellinger, what's happened? 1187 01:40:03.399 --> 01:40:08.279 Okay, say a good morning. There was just a slight increase last week 1188 01:40:08.279 --> 01:40:12.600 in the number of workers signing up for unemployment benefits. The Labor Department just 1189 01:40:12.720 --> 01:40:16.159 reported that two hundred thirty two thousand first time applications were filed. That was 1190 01:40:16.199 --> 01:40:21.159 two thousand more than the week before. Private sector job growth was much stronger 1191 01:40:21.159 --> 01:40:27.439 than expected last month, adpiece, as employers added two hundred seventy eight thousand 1192 01:40:27.479 --> 01:40:30.520 workers to their payrolls in May and workers' annual pay was up six and a 1193 01:40:30.560 --> 01:40:34.880 half percent from May of last year. We get that full Labor Department report 1194 01:40:34.920 --> 01:40:40.359 on May employment tomorrow morning. Right now, the stock market futures are pointing 1195 01:40:40.399 --> 01:40:44.960 lower the Dow futures down one hundred one points. The drama over the debt 1196 01:40:45.000 --> 01:40:48.600 ceiling is almost over now that the House has passed the compromise worked out by 1197 01:40:48.680 --> 01:40:55.399 President Biden and House Speaker McCarthy, Senate passage is all but guaranteed. Walmart 1198 01:40:55.399 --> 01:41:00.239 announced it will not follow Target and pulling Pride Month merchandise from its stars. 1199 01:41:00.279 --> 01:41:06.039 The giant retailer's chief merchandising officer told reporters Walmart cells merchandise all year that supports 1200 01:41:06.119 --> 01:41:11.840 various groups, and it has not made any changes. Target cited worker safety 1201 01:41:11.920 --> 01:41:16.359 is the reason it removes some products. The company says employers employees rather had 1202 01:41:16.399 --> 01:41:23.560 been threatened, and Casey corporate chief executives got smaller raises last year. Equaler 1203 01:41:23.840 --> 01:41:29.399 analyze salary data for the Associated Press. The typical compensation package for the CEO 1204 01:41:29.520 --> 01:41:33.600 of an SMP five hundred company increased by just under one percent last year. 1205 01:41:33.840 --> 01:41:39.479 The median was still yeah. Median was still nearly fifteen million dollars, and 1206 01:41:39.680 --> 01:41:45.239 it would take two lifetimes worth of paychecks for a typical worker to make as 1207 01:41:45.319 --> 01:41:48.680 much as a CEO makes in a single year. Casey, well, look 1208 01:41:48.680 --> 01:41:51.560 at that. Everybody's hurting. Okay, hey, Jeff, real quick, 1209 01:41:53.079 --> 01:41:56.399 I'm gonna play a sound for you. Tell me what TV show this reminds 1210 01:41:56.399 --> 01:42:00.439 you of. Okay, real quick, ready, hold on button bar, 1211 01:42:00.520 --> 01:42:09.159 here we go. You know what that is? I don't. Sounds like 1212 01:42:09.520 --> 01:42:13.800 from a cartoon watch Dukes a Hazard? I didn't. That's one. That's 1213 01:42:13.840 --> 01:42:15.600 one that flew under my radar. But I remember the show being out, 1214 01:42:15.640 --> 01:42:20.000 but I never watched it technically with flight over your radar? Because okay, 1215 01:42:20.159 --> 01:42:23.199 okay, all right, all right, well, very good, thank you 1216 01:42:23.239 --> 01:42:29.159 sir. Okay, you have a good day. Yep, never watched the 1217 01:42:29.199 --> 01:42:34.880 Dukes of Hazard. Why do I bring it up? There's no way you 1218 01:42:34.920 --> 01:42:39.680 know, he's gotta be trolling us at this point. Would get that in 1219 01:42:39.720 --> 01:42:42.600 the background while we're talking about it, so you think that's a troll. 1220 01:42:42.960 --> 01:42:46.960 Dude, he's older than us. How he's never watched The Dukes of Hazard, 1221 01:42:47.800 --> 01:42:53.359 flew under his radar? What are you gonna do? Why am I 1222 01:42:53.399 --> 01:42:56.279 bringing it up? Because some lady. I don't know if she's a fan 1223 01:42:56.319 --> 01:42:58.640 of the show or not, but she damn near recreated it. She just 1224 01:42:58.640 --> 01:43:06.560 didn't stick the landing. There's a crazy, crazy video of basically There's a 1225 01:43:06.640 --> 01:43:11.760 tow truck that showed up to deal with an accident, and this lady's like, 1226 01:43:11.880 --> 01:43:25.840 Hey, I wonder if I can jump that. Listen to this craziness 1227 01:43:25.920 --> 01:43:29.760 man. As you can imagine, Twitter was having some fun with that as 1228 01:43:29.760 --> 01:43:31.319 well. We'll tweet out the video. You should check that out. Okay, 1229 01:43:31.720 --> 01:43:38.600 all right, ever watched the Duke's a houzard. Any who, let's 1230 01:43:38.600 --> 01:43:42.760 go to this Mike. What's up? Hey? How do you know what 1231 01:43:42.760 --> 01:43:45.159 to me? I just had a like an idea for how those from criminal 1232 01:43:45.199 --> 01:43:49.399 histories could get jobs in the future after good behavior, which is, why 1233 01:43:49.479 --> 01:43:54.880 not treat it like the credit system, um, where you've gone just like 1234 01:43:54.920 --> 01:44:00.439 the way you established credit, you've established good behavior, uh saying they did 1235 01:44:00.520 --> 01:44:03.600 for a number to staying a good at lower paying jobs with low difficult jobs, 1236 01:44:03.760 --> 01:44:09.279 keeping a good criminal history back down, but a social credits courser. 1237 01:44:10.640 --> 01:44:14.920 Yeah, and even even like to include like how you were in prison time, 1238 01:44:15.079 --> 01:44:16.720 Like you know, if you were in your prison, wherefore, okase 1239 01:44:16.920 --> 01:44:20.560 be good behavior, great behavior, so they would encouract their behavior there um 1240 01:44:20.600 --> 01:44:24.880 and then years afterwards that you you had to work some craffy jobs, just 1241 01:44:24.960 --> 01:44:27.680 the way somebody would do with crappy credit, they wouldn't be able to take 1242 01:44:27.720 --> 01:44:30.840 any loans. But after a while, to some extent, I think that's 1243 01:44:30.840 --> 01:44:33.720 what they're trying to do up there, because there is you have to wait 1244 01:44:33.760 --> 01:44:39.000 a little while for it eventually to have it completely erased. And again I 1245 01:44:39.039 --> 01:44:41.800 don't know the answered. It's like the emailer I read, I like, 1246 01:44:41.840 --> 01:44:46.399 I get it, but I also understand why employers want a swath of knowledge. 1247 01:44:46.439 --> 01:44:48.960 And somebody brought up a very good point, thanks for the calling an 1248 01:44:49.000 --> 01:44:53.439 email, and said, you know, there's also liability. You see these 1249 01:44:53.840 --> 01:44:57.479 some like a daycare hires some maniac they didn't do a background check on and 1250 01:44:57.560 --> 01:45:02.319 something happens and somebody use them. So like our will employers have liability. 1251 01:45:02.359 --> 01:45:04.800 Waved. I don't know, Chris. I got about a minute, but 1252 01:45:04.920 --> 01:45:11.079 go ahead, sir, Hey Casey, good morning. So you know the 1253 01:45:11.119 --> 01:45:14.479 whole prisoner thing getting out, just what touch on what that gentleman said. 1254 01:45:14.479 --> 01:45:17.920 There are many programs available for prisoners in prison and also out of prison, 1255 01:45:18.159 --> 01:45:21.760 and I want these employers to know that you can call the prisons and get 1256 01:45:21.840 --> 01:45:28.279 the behavior stuff from you know, their credentials and stuff. But it depends 1257 01:45:28.279 --> 01:45:30.039 on the employer, how far they want to go to give this person a 1258 01:45:30.159 --> 01:45:33.800 chance, no matter what it was, because the problem is is, you 1259 01:45:33.840 --> 01:45:36.800 know, we can't judge each other. People go to prison and they have 1260 01:45:36.880 --> 01:45:40.600 time to think and reflect on what they've done, and they can come out 1261 01:45:40.600 --> 01:45:43.479 to be really great people. And you meet people in there like you wouldn't 1262 01:45:43.479 --> 01:45:45.920 believe, man. And I mean there's you would not believe it. And 1263 01:45:45.960 --> 01:45:49.159 there's firefighters in there. They go out on great projects. I mean, 1264 01:45:49.199 --> 01:45:53.199 there's so many good programs for these people in prison. They just got to 1265 01:45:53.199 --> 01:45:56.600 take advantage of them and get away from the old life that they you know, 1266 01:45:56.680 --> 01:45:59.720 the stinking thinking man. I mean, do you know you can't expect 1267 01:45:59.800 --> 01:46:01.920 It's like voting Democrats and Republicans in every year, you know, every four 1268 01:46:02.000 --> 01:46:04.880 years. You know, we do the same thing expecting different results. And 1269 01:46:04.920 --> 01:46:10.039 that's just the definition of insanity. And there's so many programs for these guys, 1270 01:46:10.039 --> 01:46:12.880 and they just don't take advantage of them because it's the hardest thing to 1271 01:46:12.960 --> 01:46:15.560 do. It's really easy to do the wrong thing. It's really easy to 1272 01:46:15.600 --> 01:46:19.119 walk in the store and take something rather than working for it and buying it. 1273 01:46:19.319 --> 01:46:23.720 And that's how God set it up. So we can appreciate the things 1274 01:46:23.720 --> 01:46:25.720 we work for. So when you come out, I want to hop these 1275 01:46:25.760 --> 01:46:29.199 people to know when you come out of prisoner and I want you to know 1276 01:46:29.279 --> 01:46:31.039 that there's help for you. You know. Yeah, I'm sorry to cut 1277 01:46:31.039 --> 01:46:32.640 you off, Chris. It's just I'm at the end of the show. 1278 01:46:32.640 --> 01:46:38.840 But I have one hundred percent agree with you. Man, it's you know, 1279 01:46:38.960 --> 01:46:41.680 but it's up to employers to do that due diligence. One of the 1280 01:46:41.840 --> 01:46:45.159 nicest people I know did seven years. I don't have time to get into 1281 01:46:45.199 --> 01:46:45.920 why, but he turned it around. Man,
