All right, good morning everybody, and uh, you know, happy Monday.
But as we know from year's experience, there are no such things as
happy Mondays because you know Monday. But you know, we'll do this thing.
So all right, phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight
seven four. As we get rolling this morning, what a weekend or what
I should say, what a long weekend? It was interesting, Like I
made it a point last week to on almost every occasion mentioned we were going
to be off Thursday and Friday, and I still I still got messages like,
hey, I know you guys said you're going to be off us a
few days coming up, but where were you Thursday and Friday? So that
was it. Nailed it, That was it. So don't worry. We're
here, but we were not there for those two Yes, yes, yes,
yes, yes, I've seen all of the op eds. This It
was crazy, man, just just this morning kind of perusing through the weekend
op eds. There's another radio host who kind of amasses these things out of
some sick pleasure hobby of his and then sends them out to a few of
us. And the I'm beginning to think that the editorial boards of many of
the major US newspapers have a bit of a political bent. It's a theory
I'm working on. You're welcome to investigate it yourself. And by most I
mean damn near all of them, as well as even our local ones.
So we will dig through that, like I'll give you. Let me give
you an example. And it's not just on everything in the Middle East.
New York Times, New York Times putting out a putting out a piece.
Oh and I thought, I I'm stupid. I thought I'd email it to
myself and I did not. But to rectify that, so Joe Biden sitting
down to chat with the world on sixty Minutes yesterday talking about you know,
hey, don't occupy Gaza. Obviously there is you know, the news of
the day. But when he was on sixty minutes, all of a sudden,
a strange thing started to happen, like almost in lockstep. As Biden
is on sixty minutes talking about his plan for if he runs again, which
we're gonna play the audio for you, the New York Times decides they're going
to put a piece out chatting about why his age. All of a sudden,
you know, the thing that they didn't want to talk about why that,
all of a sudden is a that's a good thing, man, that's
a great thing, referring to him as a wise old man, so to
speak. Yeah, now is the moment for Biden's age to be an asset.
That's the New York Times piece. So the gist of it is,
and I'm not going to read the whole thing to you, that Biden is
so old. He's personally witnessed the toll that US involvement in the Middle East
and the wars have taken on the nation. So he's the perfect person to
step in and tell Israel what they need to do. Meanwhile, he's he's
sitting down with sixty minutes and gets, you know, softball after softball thrown
in his direction on this particular issue, but also on his own political future.
And tell me if you can tell me if there's anything in this answer
that you think, possibly maybe is lacking. Okay, here he is on
sixty minutes. Are you sure that you want to run again? Yes,
because I'm sure. Look when I ran I said, the world's at an
inflection point. The world's changing, but we have an opportunity to make it.
So imagine if we are able to succeed in getting the Middle East put
in place where we have normalization and relations. I think we can do that.
Imagine what happens if we fact unite all of Europe and Putin is finally
put down where he cannot cause the kind of trouble he's been causing enormous opportunities.
All right, So, just because I have my little checklist here,
So the reason you want to run again is peace in the Middle East,
peace in Russia and the former USSR. You know, you're president of the
United States, right US, and we have some issues. Sure, we
have some issues obviously related to what's going on in world politics, don't get
me wrong, but you know it's a few things happening here, from inflation
to well, I mean, the list is long, and your answer is
peace in the Middle East and we're gonna handle Putin. I don't know,
there's probably a reason that it wasn't even worth anyone's time to sit there and
jump into any discussion about it, any of the world affairs, because everyone
just assumes it's all being run by multinationals in combination with Masad and college campuses
which hate Israel or something. I don't know. Everything's a sigh out,
man, Could you just for you know, maybe talk about what you're going
to do for the American people would have been a good start, But look,
everything was off over the weekend might be one of the strangest football weekends
I've seen in a while. I did not know until it happened. I
did not know that the Jets had never beaten the Eagles. And I don't
mean recently, I mean ever. Did you know that that they had never
beaten the Eagles? And obviously if you walking into that, you would assume
one is a much better team than the other. But that happened. San
Francisco lost to the Browns. The Bills game last night was that was sleep
inducing. I didn't know. I thought that the Bills didn't score anything till
the fourth quarter. They ended up winning, but I didn't know that untill
I woke up this morning. Yeah, the Vikings won, but it was
the Bears. Man. It was a it was a race to see who
sucked more. So, I don't know for a four day weekend, it
was. It was ungodly stress inducing. Man, this craziness. So anyway,
that's where we're going to start this morning. Obviously, we have issues
running the gamut, but well, uh, we'll touch on those. It
was from the demonstrations to a party at a New York City bar, to
people spitting on each other in the streets of Los Angeles, some old guy
going crazy and stabbing a kid in Where was that Michigan or Illinois? Yeah,
we know it was Chicago. Everything's off the hooks, man. So
if you buy into the hey, they just want to destabilize everything. The
Illuminati stuff. I mean, you got plenty of evidence to chew on and
take to social media with today, So like, I understand why you're doing
that. But all I saw over the weekend with people arguing over what color
blood is and well, anyway, I'm not going to stir the pot one
hundred percent yet, but we will get to that, all right, six
seventeen Coming up on the show, we do have some We got Clemson in
the news, we got creepy clowns, we have a celebrity death. SNL
comes out decides hey, how can we be less funny and edgy? And
they accomplish that. So we'll give you a rundown of all of that coming
up six seventeen. Hang on, keeping you connected This is ninety four to
five WPTI in the Triad and one six one FM Talk in the Triangle.
What was extremely rich about the Joe Biden sixty minutes interview is the way that
Scott Pelly, who's doing the interview, tried to position it where he referred
to the president as tired was literally finishing sentences form and said he was happy
that he could wedge in this interview as busy as he is. The irony,
of course, being the day the interview was happening. We can see
the presidential schedule, which had, let's see here do a ten am daily
briefing and then a four thirty pm roundtable. I guess would be the best
way to describe it. Basically, he sat down and listened to some CEOs
talk about how things are. That was his day, at least the public
portion of his day. Obviously he's making phone calls and stuff otherwise. But
yeah, I was able to squeak that in before he sat down to do
the interview, which again was I get and understandably going to be largely focused
on, you know, some of the big international issues, but we had
a bunch of stuff going down here in the US over the weekend that probably
could have used a little bit of input from the White House. You had
demonstrations on college campuses which ran the gam and of course you see, had
their own and in wanting to continue to be edgy or whatever. We saw
the promotional materials for these various events, including the one at UNC, including
a silhouette of a hang glider with a Palestinian flag, the one that first
emerged and the BLM poster was borrowed by college students that went down at UNC.
That was actually last week. They didn't even wait for the weekend.
Yeah, out here to support Palestine and to support the Palestinian resistance. We
are so horrible for showing a paraglider. What about their jets. Israeli jets
have killed thousands and thousands of thousands of Palestinians, but that's okay. About
fifteen minutes into the rally, a small group of UNC students supporting Israel marched
down the lawn, holding signs and shouting back support losses. The protests quickly
became heated and emotionally charged, many hugging and in tears. No, No,
No. At one point, a UNC professor of Religious studies tried to
make his way through a barricade of pro Palestinians. He was pushed off the
steps. Campus police rushed in to cart him off. I want to,
I want to. I want to. She says it, but she says
it in a way that I don't think really tells the story. So he
is a college professor. He's not touching anyone. He has some thoughts.
He's pushed down the stairs. And who do you think the police grab They
grabbed the professor, who again didn't put hands on anyone. Isn't in a
place that he not normally is, that's where he works. Get shoved down
the stairs. Looks like somebody tries to spit on them. They don't mention
it, but that's just in the video. Looks like it doesn't look like
they're very good at it though. And that's not good. That's not something
happening over in the Middle East. That's not New York City. That's Chapel
hill Man. I did not do anything violence. They Christri and I say
that those people are support people that killed hundreds of people, kids, babies.
Yeah, and I'll tell you that the most tone deaf might have been
this. So New York City at a club called The End, The End,
which is a rave club, right, this is really important. It's
a rave club. They had an event and if you remember going back to
the Paraglider, it wasn't a totality of it, but one of the big
focus points of all of this a week ago, I guess a week ago
Friday was a music rave which was attacked and what do they say, two
hundred and seventy people killed as part of that. So the idea that a
club in New York holds an event called in into fata fund raver. That's
the stupid name they came up with, which is rave music. But if
you've ever if you've if you've been to a ray, and I'm sure all
of you go to raves on the regular. There's also visuals. So not
only in the promotional little snippet they put out, but as the event's going
down, in the background behind the DJ, they're showing video of the attack
on the rave and the attacks happening in various other place Because everyone's got a
go pro it's the go pro war, and that's the video visuals that they're
using behind it. I don't know, man, some professor up at Columbia
was celebrating falling. It awesome and everything everything is torn apart. Man,
We'll be back one six one M talked w PTI, two stations driving the
best in talk. This is Casey O'Day and Carolina's Morning News. I didn't
know what to do. Deshaun Watson's out. Cleveland Browns beat San Francisco.
It's almost as if in San Francisco didn't when they acquired Christian McCaffrey, didn't
watch any tape or anything, like, you know, you can't just use
him, right, Panthers fell into that trap. They almost didn't have a
choice, and it resulted in him being injured a whole bunch. I mean,
he's he's ridiculously good, don't get me wrong, but that was nuts
last night again, even though I fell asleep because what a snoozer. The
Giants should have won that thing. And then they just bonehead run audible there
to score points on the one yard line, like no time left. Just
crazy. It was a really, really boring day. I'm trying to think
if there was any NFL games. Some of the college games were good,
I guess, but UNC game was pretty lively. I don't know. I
was trying to find one positive out of that. Tampa Bay decided to go
back to the old cream sickle or whatever they call those uniforms. Those are
just hideous. By the way, if your team has a former uniform and
you wore that uniform in a year where you won no games, probably shouldn't
wear that, Probably should retire that permanently. But you know, they went
back to that, and yeah, that was it. In a nutshell.
Patriots lost, Bill Belichick lost his damn mind. Throwing iPads wasn't a lot
to be excited about. I guess the only saving grace is when we talked
to Stagic later. His team hasn't played yet, but he's got to be
terrified considering what happened everywhere else, Man, I don't know. Meanwhile,
North Carolina State Fair doing its thing. Anybody get out there. How was
it? How were some of the new foods? We'll take spy reports on
that for sure. It did cause some confusion. I guess. There was
a concert that was supposed to be going on over at PNC this weekend.
Well I should say this, it was an added day, so Travis Scott
had a Friday show and then they added a Saturday show due to the sellout,
and then on Saturday they're like, ah, we can't do the show,
and I see people people were like saying it was a parking issue,
which I understand. With the fair going on, it gets very busy over
there. But you got all that parking man, you got all that parking,
you got the event, and Friday was fair stuff too, So I
don't know. They basically told everyone who had a ticket, we're not going
to do this thing. Just hold on to it. We'll let you know
when we do. But that's always so fun because people travel from you know,
all over, not just the state, and they got hotel reservations and
people coming in from other countries, according to one of the stories I was
reading. So I don't know exactly what they get to do. Meanwhile,
overseas, Israel ready to well, they currently are going to Gaza. Ron
DeSantis took a lot of grief as he said that he was going to start
flights to bring Floridians back who happened to have who happened to be in Israel.
Maybe they have dual citizenship, whatever it may be. And uh,
it was interesting because the people were mocking him over then and then all before
he knew it. He's at the airport in Tampa, or of flight's landing
with like three hundred people on it, or excuse me, two hundred and
sixty, which was actually an ironic number because two I said two seventy in
the previous segment, but two sixty is the number of people were killed at
the rave and all the people ragging on DeSantis had to turn off turn off
replies on their tweets. I would point this out when it comes to flying
people, you probably shouldn't screw with DeSantis on that. Like for whatever reason,
Man, he's got that figured out, whether it's flying people from Israel
or I don't know, flying people to Martha's vineyard. Like he's good to
go. Yes, the airport in Tampa, the first of what are promised
to be many flights of the roughly what is the number, It's like thirty
five thousand people who have some sort of residency or citizenship in the US continue
to be in Israel. So and they're talking like boat lifting people out of
there. Man. At one point early in the weekend, they had indicated
that there was going to be a cost associated with that, and everyone lost
their damn minds over that. But ultimately, the first, like I said,
the first of those flights, and some of the boat stuff is getting
figured out as the day unfolds. So you know, that was the weekend
in a nutshell. If you want more specifics, let's just go ahead and
die into this. Israeli Defense forces once again urging civilians inside North Gaza to
evacuate. That prompted a series of social media posts from you know, people
like AOC will use her as the shining example on this particular issue. Prompted
posts from people like AOC who are well hold on, I want to read
this verbatim. Any person can see that ordering a million plus people to move
in under twenty four hours is not possible. It is unacceptable. The UN
has already deemed the order impossible without devastating humanitarian consequences. Humanity is at stake,
nearly half for children. We must halt this. So why is that
in the in the in the the nicest terms misleading, That would of course
be that going back literally a week IDF is issued. Hey, you all
should get out of their messaging text messages, flyers. They're blaring it on
loud speakers and it has been with it. It has been the interest of
Hamas not to let people exit gaza sending out their own, you know,
their own messages. Ah, it's a trick, don't do it when in
reality, obviously the one thing you don't want is civilians, actual civilians,
not just people posing to be but actual civilians. You don't want them out
of there, because if it's nothing but fighters in there, it's going to
be a lot harder from a propaganda standpoint. So it's not like they just
got the message. It's been a week of this and at some point you
got to ask, well, how long is long enough for a million people
to move? I feel like you can do that in a week. It's
not pleasant, it's not a good thing, but you know, in reality,
a week is a lot different than the day. And of course the
UN decided to play in on that. And I don't seem to remember warnings
to the ravegoers, right, I don't remember some guy on stage going,
hey, you may want to get out of here. This is about to
become a war zone. So there is that, all right? Eight eight
eight nine three four seven eight seven four. In election news, Louisiana elected
a Republican Governor Brian Landry, and it wasn't really that close. Now people
are pointing out, well, you know, the turnout was just eighteen percent
of registered voters, so well, then vote. You know, the the
majority of registrations in the state of Louisiana are Democrats, have identified registered voters,
the majority are Democrats. They're the largest representation. So if you're losing
and you want to claim it's a turnout issue, fine, but you had
the easiest road to hoe if you just got your registered people and it had
the register registered people showed up, they would have won. I think people
are just sitting there looking at it, and then you got to ask yourself,
is that a bell weather for some other elections. Obviously it's you know,
it's a weird time to be holding elections, but so some states do
try to keep it away from some of the bigger races. A Palestinian pizzeria
under fire to use that term after the restaurant apparently used a Israeli woman who
is being held hostage to shill pizza. The Eiffel Bakery and Supermarket used an
elderly Israeli Holocaust survivor who was taken hostage by terrorists in Gaza, who in
one of the still frames of a photo is doing a thumbs up. They
use that image as though she was giving a review of the pizza craziness.
IDF saw that showed up to the pizzeria with a front loader, so you're
gonna have a hard time getting a pizza there. News and Israel reports that
Benjamin Netanyahu was personally involved in the decision to destroy the pizzeria. The owner
of the pizzeria had previously been assaulted for or previously been arrested for assaulting in
Israeli several years ago, and said I had no idea who the woman in
the photo was, except for the part where they knew straight up who the
woman in the photo. Just grab that right, They didn't go on Google,
and they're like old woman thumbs up, Oh look perfect, all right.
After their pizzeria was bulldoze, one of the employees said, we're against
harming people. We just wanted to sell pizza. Yeah, yeah, I
don't think. You know, I don't think any business that would have tried
to incorporate and frank into into their marketing materials probably would have fared well,
especially in an active war zone. Although the pizza place did have good YELP
reviews. So but then you know, you got to you gotta wonder how
much of that is rigged as well. Meanwhile, down south, and we'll
get to this story, Clemson students took to protests, but strangely, it
wasn't over things in the Middle East. It was over a vending machine.
Explain what that was about coming up here on the CaCO Day radio program.
The show. After the show is on the iHeartRadio app. Search Cacoday for
the podcast on the iHeart radio app. You know, I gotta be honest.
When I was reading about what the demonstrations at Clemerson were about versus all
of the Middle East demonstrations that we saw in many campuses, it almost felt
wholesome. Man almost felt wholesome just because it was, you know, more
internalized local stuff. All right, So what's the beef down at Clemson And
then we'll get into your phone calls here in just a moment. It's over
feminine products. Students are still not safe on campus. They still experienced harassment,
hate, all of those things, if anything. All right, So,
just as we're getting into this, what do you think the hate and
harassment is before you find out what it is. What horrible incident or happening
on the campus there in South Carolina, Clemson University may have befallen these students.
Many students are still not safe on campus. They still experience harassment,
hate, all of those things. If anything, the university needs to step
up, needs to protect a students. Students held the third Take Back Pride
March Wednesday, advocating free, equality, inclusion, and protection. The university
has been pretty silent. They haven't released any statements regarding transphobia or homophobia seen
on campus, and we would love for them to make a statement to really
give their support to their queer students. The march comes amid tensions between lgbt
Q students and the Clemson College Republicans. Last month, the Clemson College Republicans
called for tampon and sanitary product dispensers to be removed from a men's bathroom on
campus. Men are men, women or women. Of course men cannot menstrate,
so of course we spoke out against that. Of course these people think
the opposite, and that's why they're out here protesting us. Yeah, by
the way, when they cut to that, dude, if I just looked
at that guy, I would have assumed he was protesting on the other side.
So you know, don't judge a book by its cover. Yes,
that's right, students amassed to protest over a tampon machine in a men's restroom.
That's the beef. One side is like this is dumb. The other
sides like they should be in all of them. I want to know what
happens when they run out after the Clemson football team uses all of them.
I'm sorry I took the shot. It's not been a good season. Although
to be fair, they were off this weekend I think, so they didn't
get to add to the misery. Oh, we'll have to ask agic about
it, since he's a come lately fan. There, alright, I'm just
gonna cly all right, we'll get to calls here coming up after the bottom
of the hour. I don't want to just give people forty five seconds or
whatever. No, no, no, no. So people are like,
why don't you put him in the men's locker room for vite? No,
see that you can do the visiting team's locker room. Put him in there.
That's just a psych out. Who is is it Alabama or Auburn?
One of the two has like the pink locker room for the opposting side,
although I remember people got upset with that too, so she had some Ah,
you're intimating the pink is a color of weakness. How dare you?
And it's like, that's just football people. Rasin football people, you don't
have any other issue you could be upset about this morning or on this day.
But yeah, that's again, I don't know why. It just feels
wholesome compares for the rest of the garbage that we were greeted with on college
campuses over the weekend. All right, Like I said, we'll get your
phone calls coming up. The speaker of the house that drama gets to play
out, Will it be Jim Jordans. We don't know, but we'll give
you a little preview. And again your calls coming up. Hang up?
Oh good lord, reading the Critters story this morning, you know what,
screw it? Don't put the signs up? Does let nature take its course.
Officials in Michigan are calling for new signs to be placed on trailheads at
Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lake Shore. All right, I've been here. This
is in empire Ish area, Michigan. Beautiful, very nice, very serene.
The reason it's called Sleeping Bear Dunes is because the dunes look like a
sleeping bear. It doesn't mean that the bears that live there are sleeping,
So it's okay to walk up and try to take photos with them. Are
we tracking here? Because it's not tracking for some folks who did that,
The new signs will alert visitors they're entering areas of potential bear activity. Well,
look, part of bear activity sleeping. But like you during a home
invasion, you might wake up and you're gonna be a little out of it.
You're gonna be a little like what's going on. You're gonna you know,
maybe you're gonna reach for a protective instrument, or you're gonna use whatever's
at your disposal. That's how bears work too. So I'm just saying,
don't put the signs up. Let nature weed this out. Man. If
people think they can go there and don't worry if you see a bear because
he's sleeping and you can tiptoe pass for a selfie if you want to goldilocks
it in there, just let them do their thing. In fact, I'm
I would also be willing even though it is the first National park and very
iconic and a big part of my childhood with family, multiple family members that
work there. I spent summers there. I would be in favor of renaming
Yellowstone to the Wolf Bear Bison Petting Zoo. And you know, we'll up
the will up the ante during tourist mauling season because it'll be look, it's
a it says it's a petting zoo. I see one of those three things.
Let's go do this. I'd be willing to watch that play out.
But if you have idiots go into some place called Sleeping Bear Dunes and they
think that if they see a bear, do they think that bears hibernate like
just out in the open. I don't know what happened, but anyway,
if you're planning the family trip there, just know that it's named that way
for the dunes and not for the status of the bears. Okay, all
right, very good, all right, let's get to the phone calls.
Jamal, good Monday morning to you. What's up? Good morning? All
that wyoming just came up out of you. I'm courage I'm good with it.
Let Darwin do his things, so you know what Kse and I'm not
trying to be mean or nothing, but I am so glad Jewish people are
actually seeing what the Democrat Party and left is really considered, is what they
consist of. You don't even have children buried yet, you don't even have
people returned back to their families, and you got limbles out there shouting and
rejoicing in the death of these Jewish people. And now I'm watching over the
weekend casey people on the left like they gotta stop this. The Jewish people
are gonna leave a Democrat Party. I'm like, you know what, maybe
it's the no they people need to see it, because y'all aren't trying to
tell these college students not to do this crap attacking the phiological professor then centerp
their hole in Provomos Riley because you think it's wrong. You just don't want
the truth exposed about you, because you're terrified the Jewish people gonna be like,
oh my god, what have we been supporting? You got Black lives
matter, and you know how much I live. They're sitting up there having
folk colors standing on with gliders and sharing that stuff. And you remember Saint
George Floyd of the sitting now on miss a Lot Baptist Church. You remember
him and how many Jewish students was out there Black Lives Matter and marching with
them, and people were like, all right, you don't know what you're
dealing with. And to see that you had al sharping and the manner the
AVA up there saying yes, he remember how the ADL spoke up with Black
Lives now the nationalized network, and these students need to stop. These students
don't care. They've created a monster. They've gotten away with it. They
were they rejoiced when conservatives died. And the truth is they look at Jewish
people as white people, and so they think it's okay to kill them,
maim them and do things like that. And they're actually saying stuff like this,
case, I know, if you saw this, stuff like that should
happened to Native Americas and should rise up and do this to the to the
white people in America here to take back dead ran. This is some Also
these college students, I'm saying, and these Palestinians were saying, casey,
people are seeing what these universities and colleges are churning out and it's not good.
Well, let me ask you. Let me just ask you a question.
Did you see what happened up at Harvard? So they had you know,
they had the big letter we talked about that. You had like twenty
seven student groups who signed, including some Jewish student groups and then uh,
some Jewish organization. I can't remember which one. It wasn't the ADL,
but it was one of them. Basically, they they got one of those
billboard trucks up there and they just drove around with the names of the people
who signed it. And everyone lost their damn minds over the weekend because they
were quote, you killed or something and uh. And some companies were like,
yeah, can we have those names that we don't hire any of these
idiots. So that's turned into its own thing, you know what, Casey.
And then this is what you may disagree with me. I don't know.
You may or you may not. It is one of those times you'll
say, Jamal, I'm gonna push back against that. It's Monday. It's
Monday. I don't care. I just I'm so look after watching people argue
over what color blood is or whether a murdered baby was decapitated or not decapitate.
Yeah, why one's better than the other. I just I don't have
the energy this morning, So whatever, go ahead. I don't think you
should be able to protest with masking stuff on your face in order for yes
first and man that write the protest. But you should be happy because of
this stuff is turning into riots. If people are out there protesting, I
mean they're trying to dress up like Comes. These students are out there,
some of them are white, some of them black. They are out they're
dressing up like Comes. They are out there dressing tough like comoths. So
on phones, you got two phones from yeah, my work phone, but
one of them is my work phone, the other. But I always say
this when I'm driving to work out on the ross has one phone on one
phone? You got two phones, but yeah, Kase, I got it
turned down. I got I turned it down to ignore the call. It's
fine, stupid work on a Monday anyway. But yeah, k C.
That's what I'm saying. These students out there that's doing all this stuff and
protesting all this stuff, they should they should be hading. They should not
be able to go out there and do it because these are the riaction.
Yeah, you know what, I will push back. Sure, they should
go out there and and sign on anything you want and uh, happy,
happy job hunting. I got no problem with that. I thought this was
the consequences of one's actions. I thought that's the world we lived in now,
where it seems to never be consequential action for and when they send out
their protests and support Hamas. But I'm talking about all these protests people do
with that face and mass covered up, because we need to be able to
identify these people. If they can, if the if they can want to
see the people of the faces of Jay six, then we should maybe say,
well, we want to see your faces. One thing about us when
we went to the Capitol for January sixth, No, we didn't have all
our masks in cover. We were there. We were there to protest.
But these people, we are supporting the murder and buttraying of children because this
is what they're supporting. That's not real. The decapitated children has been that
has all that has been defunked. That has been debunked by who Hamas.
The Harma said, it's not true, said they, No, I saw
here's what I saw people beefing on. They literally released some photos and again
we're now in the era where any photo or videos probably fake if you don't
like it, of literal dead childre ldren. But their heads were intact.
They just happen to be burned to death, incinerated and or beaten to death.
And I saw people debating that and I just had to tap out.
I just couldn't, man, I just you should see what ill hair Omar
did. Did you see what she did? Which which thing where she put
the fake story from twenty thirteen on there? Yes? Yes, yes,
if the Republican Party can do anything. Nancy Pelosi opened up the door to
suspend people out ill hair Omar and to lead us to leave need to be
they if they out there, they can be in Congress. They don't need
to be on no committed, and they need to pass the law. Unless
it's the American flag and your state flag, you can't fly nothing outside your
office in the Hall of Congress. I know a lot of people say what
a pow flag. That gives them ammunition to say, hey, we want
to put the rainbow flag, or we know cheap American estate. What you're
hanging your office, you know what? Can't say nothing about that, but
what you hang outside those halls. Only things should be seen the American flag
and your state flag. Job govern to Mark Robinson, I gotta oh,
yeah, well we'll get into that. That's gonna be a that's gonna be
a whole lot. Well actually so, because I'm gonna, I was gonna
transition to this. So over the weekend, uh, Roy Cooper was in
Where'd you Go? Japan? I think he was in Japan when when the
governor is not in the state, the lieutenant governor is quote unquote acting governor.
And so Mark Robinson put a press release out. He's like, hey,
hey, y'all, we're gonna do something tomorrow, and everybody freaked out
like he's gonna seize control, he's gonna he's gonna do all this. And
what he did is, uh he issued a proclamation for uh basically uh,
you know, for prayer, uh for what happened in Israel. And somehow,
even though he didn't quote un quote seize control in some sort of coup
as for the predictions, people lost their damn minds. One government promoting prayer
even though he didn't do it in a specific manner with one religion or another,
but two because he's quote unquote an anti Semite and how dare he?
And of course many of the people pushing back were people who were out there
at some of these marches with their paraglider stuff. So yeah, the whole
thing was bonkers. Absolutely. I can't wait to talk. We're gonna talk
to him on Wednesday. I can't wait. So I can't wait either.
I love Mark Robinson and that's what and this is the North Carolina needs.
He made history because you know, whenever someone you know, when Paris was
president, because Joe Biden had to be under she's a black president, she's
a black, black female president. Well, we had the first black governor
and his name was Mark Robinson. North Carolina had a black governor. Well
nay, well Robertson for a few days, lieutenant governor, and I guess
you know, he's vying to be governor. So we'll see, all right,
Jamal, Yeah, you try to answer your answer your work phone,
so go do that, all right, all right, all right, there
you go. Yeah. People lost their damn minds over that. Uh look,
it was fun watching the speculation what's he gonna do? But I mean
some of the theories were like, he's gonna get camps, he's gonna see
his power accoupata and it was it was a proclamation? Was that is it?
Was it political? Yeah? Was it? You know, a little
bit of a stunt, absolutely, But the predictions were the interesting part for
me, which shockingly didn't pan out. All right, seven to twenty.
If you want to weigh in on the Mark Robinson thing too, you can
by coming to call it up. I'll I'll read what was put out there.
And then of course Ray Cooper has got to come out and be like
you know, and and act offended but not too offended. And uh,
it was a lot of interesting constricting in in how that was dealt with anyway,
seven hang on, Thank you, cac Is on ninety four five w
PTI in the Triad and one six one FM Talk in the Triangle. All
right, seven twenty six, Good morning, kc O Day Radio program.
I'm not sure what they think they're going to accomplish here, but I guess
the Biden administration is talking about taking a trip to Israel. Do we have
to take him over there? Because I have another idea. I don't feel
that that's going to be helpful for anybody at all. Uh. You know,
obviously there's the security concerns. But because I mean, if you're Hamas,
what a great target. Right, that being said, I would trust
that they'd be able to make sure that didn't happen. Keep them far away
from most things. Just take them to Brooklyn, man, Just put them
in the plane, all right, Fly fly around, make some beer it
don't make tight turns, keep them busy, give them, give them the
thing with the blocks within the shapes that go in the plastic thing. Right,
and then you know, figure out how many hours? What is a
flight to Israel? About nine hours? Right? So do that, but
do you make control? Go out and just make a you know, even
an unnoticeable turn right, land at JF land at LaGuardia Dry or JFK,
your pick. Drive him into what is the what is the area there in
uh Brooklyn Williamsburg Jewish Quarter or whatever they call it? Right, if you've
ever been there, you're like a am I in Israel? What's going on
a lot of you get a lot of there's a lot of Hasidic Jews and
all get them some motza ball soup, get them some ice cream. Tell
them it's a special recipe. I don't care. Just seems wildly unnecessary,
and then get them back on the plane, screw around, give them the
blocks again, and then land in DC and be like you made it.
Good job, mister President. Very helpful. This is one O six one
Men Talk in the Triangle and News Talk ninety four f w PTI and the
Triad. And every time I see one of these stories, I'm like,
I can't believe I destroyed all my toys as a kid. Some of this
stuff's crazy. But the problem is you would have had to have resisted the
urge to actually take them out of the package and do anything with him so
over the weekend a X wing. Now, to be fair, this is
the model that the toy was based on, but it's actually also the model
that was used in some shots within the movie. I guess, so it's
got a you know, there's a little more significance. Sold for three point
one million dollars, and I just like used all mine to bop it into
things and break it. I'd tell you. The coolest Star Wars toy I
had was an ad Ad or whatever those things are called, the Walkers.
I know we've gotten into a debate over what they're called. I remember getting
that thing and you could store all your stuff and like inside this, you
know, the side of it opened up so you could put all your action
figures in there. That was amazing. But the problem was those dangly legs.
It was way too easy to break, and so that thing was busted
in a hot second. So had I known, I would be rich,
but I didn't. So all right, seven thirty seven, Good morning Cacoday
Radio program. A few other things going on. This is cool. Speaking
of space stuff, we now have our first space ranger. YEP, Captain
Daniel Reynolds has earned the right to be called the first space Ranger. So
what is that? How that happened? All right? So Reynolds earned his
thank you task and purpose for all of your pop ups. Appreciate that Reynolds
graduated from Ranger school this week or last week and earned the Ranger tab as
he is currently with the Space Force. That makes him the very first space
Ranger. So buzz Lightyear if you will. The ceremony, which took place
on Friday, saw Captain Reynolds awarded the badge or the tab rather by his
father, who is also a ranger, Army Colonel John Reynolds. What do
they call it? They call him guardians. Right, yeah, that's right.
Guardians do that whole thing, as we have documented here on the show,
right from the logo, and it had everything to do with it being
trump Man from the logo or they're like, that's a star trek rip Off,
what are you doing? This is dumb and then like it turned all
and then people like Nil deGrasse Tyson are like, now that's probably a good
idea. I don't need Tyson out there because there's a little whack on stuff,
but you know, the idea that there is from a homeland protection perspective
that perhaps what happens in space we should probably pay attention to. And I
mean that should be a no brainer. When you got satellites that who you
know, God knows what's up in those some of those satellites. You have
other other entities who were not fans of US, including Russia and China and
everywhere else getting into further and further space exploration. There is an interest here
in the United States, so at least keep an eye on that. So
they do that, and then they're like, what do we call them.
Let's call them the guardians, And of course that during the era of the
Guardians of the Galaxy movies, people further lose their mind. But the reality
Isdon Reynolds, just another guy serving in the military, decides, you know
what I'm gonna I'm gonna go a little tougher route than some I'm gonna get
me that tab. I'm gonna continue to you know, get promoted and do
my thing. And now he can call himself the first space ranger, which
is kind of awesome. I bet that works in the bar. I don't
know if he's married. But do you get a ray gun? How does
that work? I would assume if you're the first space ranger, you'd probably
get some of the first space weaponry, but I don't know. So before
he was a space ranger, was he a space cadet? Thank you,
Boston Paul. Appreciate your input this morning. Actually, Boston Paul sent me
a bunch of emails. Let's see. Yeah, I did see the people
throwing bricks at the trail. Okay, all right, all right, all
right, thank you for all of that good craziness. Things whacked out.
Man. Oh we had a heist down in Florida too. I got to
tell you about that. We'll get to that here in just a little bit
again eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four snl over the weekend
in an effort to, I guess, keep their finger on the pulse of
the American public. Whenever there is something tragic, they get Pete Davidson out
there to handle it, because his dad died in nine to eleven. Probably
heard that reference and they went a little different direction for the cold open this
week. We saw the horrible images and stories from Israel and Gaza, and
I know what you're thinking, who better to comments on it than Pete Davidson.
Well, in a lot of ways, I am a good person to
talk about it because when I was seven years old, my dad was killed
at terrist attack, so I know something about what that's like. I saw
so many terrible pictures this week of children suffering as rarely children and Palestinian children,
and it took me back to a really horrible, horrible place. And
you know, no one in this world deserves to suffer like that, you
know, especially not kids. You know, after my dad died, my
mom tried pretty much everything she could do to cheer me up. I remember
one day, when I was eight, she got me what she thought was
a Disney movie, but it was actually the Eddie Murphy stand up special Delirious,
and we played it in the car on the way home, and when
she heard the things Eddie Murphy was saying, she tried to take it away,
but then she noticed something. For the first time in a long time,
I was laughing again. I don't understand it. I really don't,
and I never will. But sometimes comedy is really the only way forward through
tragedy. You know, my heart is with everyone whose lives have been destroyed
this week. But tonight I'm gonna do what I've always done in the face
of tragedy, and that's try to be funny. Remember I said, try
and live from New York. It's Saturday night, all right, all right?
So and uh, I thought it was interesting because, as you can
imagine, it ran the gamut of response like, oh, you know,
it's h it's both sides is or what about ism? Or I don't know.
I I don't necessarily have a beef with what he said. Do you
let me? He's talking about it a little of his own. And don't
get me wrong, I get I get all of the baggage that comes with
SNL man. You know, the it used to be funny and they used
to make fun of everyone. In reality that doesn't exist anymore more, and
it's a shame. But talking about the kids aspect of it, it's fine.
It's fine. There's there's more than enough to be upset about. Okay,
Like, you know, if you're rooting for one of the NFL teams
that for no reason I can understand other than the rigged machine was broken.
Over the weekend, I ended up losing, so but not the Cowboys.
They get to lose tonight, Race stage are here to tell you about it.
So, dude, did you make Did you know the Jets had never
beat Philadelphia? I did ever not know that ever? And thank you to
the Jets. Oh that's yeah, that's right. You guys got beef exactly
exactly. What about that mess last night? I've got to say, I
fell asleep and I'm like, this is and I didn't realize you know that,
you know the Giants haven't scored a touchdown in the first half of any
game this season. Now that I did not know either, But I do
go on that almost one too, except they were like, hey, let's
call yeah, let's not call a penalty there where I clearly grabbed them.
I mean, the Bills should add Ellen to be fair. Of the Bills
got hosed the before, but yeah, they kind of did. Yeah,
so much for my fantasy team yesterday thanks to Bill's quarterback because he did nothing.
Oh Jared Allen, Yeah, I'm sorry. Is that the guy?
I don't know? You said? It was one Jared whatever? And then
San Francisco and they're like, hey, let's uh, let's burn McCaffrey out
and say, I don't know, just see what the Panthers tried that it
didn't work. So yeah, well, you know, a lot of a
lot of strange things. It's like, you know, there's yeah, there's
that right, They're gonna make a run here coming up soon. Maybe.
Meanwhile, Clemson your your new favorite school man had this weekend that so on
it was the only college campus not having like Hesbala rallies. Instead, they
were upset over a tampon machine and the men's were in there. So I'm
like, well, if it's not there, then where the player is gonna
get tampon? Wow ah yeah yeah, but a big one this week and
they're gonna start a run of a bunch of games where and how about like
two six and oh teams two six and oh teams in the ACCU North Carolina
right U n C at Florida State. So yeah, and and they might
even be in the ABC next year. We don't know, they might.
Yeah, we don't know what's gonna happen. But anyway, weatherwise, it's
it's beautiful football. Remember these beautiful fall like mornings when tea going on.
So State Fair is going on, and the weather is going to be great.
I really don't see much in the way of precipitation through the first part
of the week. Little chili in the mountains, a great smoky mountains.
There were some snowflakes yesterday, last night, and once again today there may
be and we may have a sprinkler rain shower. Otherwise, sun and clouds
today, most of us near just above sixty, upper thirties to low forties
tonight, then plenty of sunshine through Thursday with a warming trend upper sixties tomorrow,
upper sixties, low seventies Wednesday, Thursday, so real nice weather.
It's all about Friday when we'll start to see some showers. But sun should
be back for the weekend. So if it goes away, it looks like
right now, one out of the next seven days may have a little rain
around. Other than that, comfortable temps, chili nights, fairly decent days,
not real warm, but if anything will average probably close to or below
normal in terms of temps. So would you try this? Speaking of the
State Fair, so this year is among the new offerings, a giant turkey
leg. Right, fan of that? Right? Oh yeah, except except
this one's stuffed with a breakfast turkey leg, eggs, cheese, and potato
tots, typed with topped with lime, prima fruit jam, and various other
kinds. Sure that, absolutely, I'll eat anything that. I'll try anything,
and if it tastes good, I don't care what it says it is,
but if it tastes good, I'll eat it. Again. I think
they call it crack and cheese or something. I'll eat it so not real
crack. Yeah all right, well, very good, Thank you sir.
We'll talk in an hour. Appreciate it sounds good? Yep yep, yep,
yep. Hey, anybody have the stuff turkey leg go to the fair?
Have that? I need a spy report on that. Is it as
good as it sounds? Because it sounds good? And I would hate for
that to be one of those things you ate and then it just didn't pan
out. That'd be a big disappointment in my life. All Right, Coming
up, we had a heist not quite Ocean's eleven, but holy crap down
in Florida. Man, they did some stuff and we'll get you the details
on that, plus your calls eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven
four, And we have a Hollywood death and yeah, a lot of little
backstories coming out that I hadn't thought about in a while, So we'll get
to all of it coming up here on the CaCO Day Radio program Smart Talk
all Day ninety four to five WPTI in the Triad and one L six one
FM Talk in the Triangle. All right, trying to figure out what what
kind of hell whole party they're headed to with this investigation underway in Florida after
burglars crashed a tractor trailer into an alcohol distribution company and stole four thousand,
two hundred and seventy seven cases of liquor. How long that was it?
Now, I'm confused. So was the truck loaded with the no they had
to load it? How long does it take to load four, two hundred
and seventy seven cases of liquor when you're doing a smashing grab, so confused.
What was in it ready? Jose Quervo Malibu and Phronsie wine. That
is some That is a that's a low rent gathering right there. Man.
I can't imagine the hangover mixing all those together, the high class Phronsie box
wine and Jose Quervo tequila, a little Malibu just to cut through it.
Apparently they filmed the theft this after. Thorty say that they are subpoenaing some
information from a Apple iPhone pro that had Pro fourteen Max that had uploaded some
footage according to this search hornt here. Yeah, I just wonder how long
did you get this? Did you have to get the skidloader and do it?
I mean, then I guess I could understand how you get four thousand
cases loaded your smashing crab semi truck getaway vehicle. Thorty say. The suspects
also removed some of the digital video recordings used by the distributor as part of
their security and surveillance system, so they knew what they were doing. R
DNC, which is the name of the republic National distributing company currently distributes.
They are one of the nation's largest wine and spirits distributor, with employees in
thirty eight states, as well as the district oh Columbia. I get the
vibe they're thinking that it was somebody who worked there. I guess got tired
of stealing Jose one bottle at a time. All right, I mean,
should this be that hard to solve? You know, generally, if you
got a bunch of booze somewhere, eventually police, if police keeps showing up
to a neighborhood for domestic disturbances or parties or something like that, and everywhere
they go, people are smashed out of their gourd on phronsia wine and tequila.
You know, maybe you want to start tracking that back, get a
little geographic profile. What is this? Malibu is like drinking pine cones.
I don't know. I can't remember the last time I had Malibu. But
it's coconut right, But Malibu is coconut rum. Which at that point,
I'm like, I'm not gonna I don't like I like cocktails, but I
don't like them real sweet. Give me a nice boulevardier. I'm good to
go with that that's a booze mixed with booze, cut with booze. You
ain't screwing around with that drink. I like a bullet Rye bourbon, the
campari sweet vermouth which isn't real sweet but is very thick and uh or no
campari, and then the antika uh excuse me, carpano antiica campari, which
is obviously a bitter uh liqueur, and then sweet vermouth. It's like,
what's the drink that's a gin drink. I'm trying to think it's like that,
but you just you put uh put the bourbon in there for Rye whiskey.
It's good to go, right, I need that on Monday it was
a crazy weekend. Or maybe you're going to the fair with kids, going
a pre game. Don't drive there with the kids, obviously, but you
know, get an uber and get a little tuned before you go, and
get yourself a giant turkey late because you earned it. It's advice you can
use. All Right, we got another hour to go, lots to get
into hang on Aco Day Radio program. All right, good good morning again.
Welcome, it is Monday. It is our number three. I'm glad
to have you a long CaCO Day radio program. Oh boy, oh boy,
oh boy, do we got a bunch of stuff. We got the
state fairs going on, all the football insanity. Everything's crazy town there.
Obviously, the Middle Eastern story is one that dominates not just that part of
the world, but all over, including America's college campuses. Social media is
a dumpster fire, and Suzanne Summers died. So I'm just saying, busy
weekend. Hold on, I need button mark. Suzanne Summers died. Busy
weekend. There we go. So yeah, yeah, Chrissy from a Three's
company, well most of Three's company, if you remember she left the show.
I was trying. I knew what the beef was. I had to
look up the details. So basically she was getting paid her and Janet we're
getting paid thirty thousand an episode. John Ritter was getting one hundred and fifty
thousand, and of course I saw her death then parlayed into this whole equal
pay. But John Ritter was the star of that show, so some would
argue it was mister Furley, but John Ritter was the star of that show.
And so her Summers and her agent said, nah, we want the
same, and they offered her somewhere in the middle, and I don't know
if it was ever disclosed what it was, but she said no, and
then obviously the character left the show and she went on to do other things
she made a bundle off of because I think she got a piece of it.
The extra what was the exercising thigh master, right thigh master, which
prompted one of my favorite in living color sketches ever. So the sketch was
it had Jim carry in it because of course, so Jim Carrey is Susanne
Summer's husband in this, and I can't remember the whole setup, but it's
her hawk and these thigh masters, which you remember was the you know,
the it had the red foamy arms on it and then the resistance ball in
the middle and you squeezed it with your thighs. And there's a point in
the sketch I'm gond be delicate here where Jim Carrey's the husband character comes in
but his head is distorted and flattened because the thigh master and then the you
get it right, Okay, it's an adult joke, but I remember laughing
hysteraiky at that. But no, going back to Three's Company, Yeah,
she wanted. She wanted what ridd was making and not thirty thousand, but
they said, well, Ridder's the star, so here's something in between,
and they said no, and that prompted not I think they actually tried.
They brought two other roommates in and then as those do, the series kind
of waned off. But yeah, back in the day threes company man,
she was seventy seven. She took a lot of grief too for a can
She had a cancer diagnosis years ago and was very open about going all natural
route. Did She lived for a long time after that, so I don't
know, but I remember like the medical community got very mad at her because
they're like, ah, you're trying to get people to not come in and
get chemo. But I don't remember all. I don't remember she finally decided
to do it or what it was. But yeah, that was kind of
one of the last last stories out there from Summers. But yeah, or
no, she was seventy six. Today would have been her birthday, so
she died literally the day or she died the day before. I don't know
if yesterday or today would have been, but she died the day before her
seventy seventh birthday. So there you go. The trifecta is up and running,
and Ross just sent me a this is great. By the way,
Ross is dealing with technical issues, He's not He did not die fighting communism
or attempting to eat at all of the olive gardens. But we just had
some stuff there. So somebody sent me an email accusing me of or accusing
us of hiding the truth. He's doing all that, so and then maybe
it'll be fixed. We're just trucking on. So there you go. But
anyway, AnyWho, where was I So? Yeah, he sent me this
video and I thought this was more like weird Marjorie Taylor Green make fun of
stuff, and it just says Jewish space lasers. I'm like, oh gosh,
what have we got now? But it's actually so there's video of a
part. I guess it would have to be part of the Iron Dome because
it's called the Iron Beam, and you may have seen videos before of the
Iron Dome intercepting rockets, but not in this fashion. It literally is a
laser that fires into the air and hits rockets, and seemingly it's very good
at his job. But I don't know if I call it a space laser
because it's a ground fired thing and shooting up towards space. Or maybe there's
a component that zaps down from a satellite. I don't know, but it's
pretty cool. Tech man who doesn't want to lay by the way, say
how fast can we get this into home security systems? How fast can we
get this integra? Think of the deep satisfaction you would have of not just
nakedly trying to sit there and call the CPI guy because the you know,
the white guy burglary rings attempting to break into your house, but instead home
invader boom tries to crawl through the window space laser. It's like one of
those that laser tunnel in Resident Evil. It would actually be when you know
what, then you could have these Democratic congress holes running around going if you
shoot somebody with the two twenty three, it cuts them in half, did
you know? And it weighs as much as six boxes of paper, you
know whatever. The stupid comments are like, oh no, to cut.
That's a laser that will cut you in half. In fact, it'll cut
you into little accordion pieces. If it's got the little pattern thing where it
just goes through you and then all of a sudden, in slow motion,
like pieces of you start flying. You're not gonna rob the house anymore.
You're out done. So I understand people will be upset. They're like,
oh, I was just trying to get bread for his family. I don't
know about that. Maybe you shouldn't come into a house that literally says hey,
guarded by lasers. I feel like it would be a good deterrent.
But yeah, that's doing their thing. And ironically, as it's doing their
thing, and I read down the comments, they're like, see, this
is why Israel doesn't have to do anything. What could all this tech they
have? Well, they do have a lot of tech, but the fact
remains that you know, well over a thousand people are dead, including hundreds
they're at a rave and the lasers don't appear to be an offensive weapon yet
maybe there's offensive capabilities I'm not sure of, but that is a thing,
but no watching them in action. In fact, Rossa, please retweet that
thing you sent me, because is the space laser mounted on a shark should
be but it doesn't appear to be. And you know, and frankly,
you got to get the shark in position. You got to make sure it's
not off doing shark stuff, you know, like eating surfers or attacking boats
that should have been bigger. Got to have well trained, so you can't
always count on a shark. And I don't know its effectiveness underwater. I
feel like that'd be a little bit of a problem trying to fire through they're
essentially billions of prisms. But yeah, maybe in the future, but for
now, kind of cool stuff. Man, why do we get to get
more laser technology? This was like this is the whole, not just Trump
stuff, Ross and ever talking off the air like under Obama when it was
remember the rail gun was gonna be the next big thing. The one mounted
was the size of your house on one of the Naval show battleships. We're
not gonna need to standard AMMO anymore. We're got out a rail gun here.
And I think the beef with it was, as you see sometimes in
movies, it's a little more limited in how much it can fire and how
it can be utilized and basically how much time has to pass in between uses
of it. But when you do use it, it seemed wildly devastating.
And if you're just trying to slice and dice your opponent's ship in half.
I mean, that's what you want it for, just right down the middle
insta titanic, right, don't have to wait for just the sheer force of
the weight of the ship is perilously, perilously flips upward. Just boom,
slice it down the middle like you're cutting a lime. But no, we're
not there yet. But now that you have a space ranger, that's the
dude to test it, all right eight eight, eight nine three four seven,
eight seventy four. France has taken a little different approach to dealing with
what's going on. They don't have Look, they don't have the pesky First
Amendment constitutional stuff to get around, but they're not having any of it,
and they put their citizens on notice. So we will we'll talk about that.
And William Wallace is back and he's dressed as penny Wise. I'm assuming
And I love reading articles in Scotland because Scotland has some of the greatest slang
words and phrases ever. Like you're listening to somebody who's Scottish speak to you.
They're speaking in English but not really. And anytime they're they're interviewing somebody,
you gotta have a damn translator standing by. But it's good stuff,
some of it, and some of it sounds a lot dirtier than it is.
So maybe we'll learn some Scottish insults. That's how we'll fill this final
hour. Plus your calls eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seventy four
hang on six' one FM talk a w PTI, two stations driving the best
end talk. This is Casey O Day and Carolina's Corning News. Yeah,
let me tell you what's disgusting. People taking advantage of this court. And
disabled man who on a return flight from Saint Martin for Martin depending on which
side I guess he's on, was pulled aside by customs officials after they became
suspicious of what appeared to be a very interestingly cushioned wheelchair. So he's got
one of those top dollar electric wheelchairs, right, you know, with the
little joystick thing on it. However, the padding on it looked a little
questionable. As customs officials investigated, they figured out that some of the stitching
looked way too fresh, right, So whereas the pad itself was a little
worn obviously from you know, being sat in constantly. The actual stitching on
the seat and backcrest of it looked like a brand new thread. Sure enough,
when they opened it up, they say they found one and a half
million dollars worth of cocaine hidden in the cushions of the wheelchair. Now,
the fifty one year old passenger and a wheelchair guy not his, had no
idea it's his wheelchair, not his cocaine, doesn't know if it came that
way when he bought the wheelchair used, which is a thing that can happen,
you know, you see those stories somebody buys a house and then they
find like the balloons in it, right, or money hidden in someplace,
or some guy goes to a garage sale, gets an old desk and they're
taking it apart to refinish it, and then somebody stuffed one hundred thousand dollars
in there. You see those stories. It happens. Or if while he
was in Saint Martin, somebody decided to stuff his wheelchair full of coke but
definitely not his, doesn't know nothing, doesn't seem they're buying it though,
But you know, anyone who would take advantage of this guy just trying to
go on vacation obviously, dealing with mobility issues. It's not he doesn't say
exactly why I was in the wheelchair, but yeah, tons his wheelchair,
Patty, and maybe possibly maybe the bags of the kilos of cocaine are maybe
they're very comfortable, right. You know that's going to be an important component
if you're sitting in a wheelchair, you know that's that's your day, sitting
in any seat for that matter, But if you're in a wheelchair, you
want it to be comfortable. Maybe from an ergonomical standpoint, kilos of cocaine
are just the right amount of softness but firmness, and the company was just
trying to create a wheelchair that would provide the maximum amount of comfort for this
dude. Well, it's not the first time that officials in New York have
seized drugs hidden in motorized wheelchairs. It is the most. The previous record
four hundred and fifty thousand worth of cocaine they found in a woman's wheels women's
wheelchair wheels, but it does tie the international record, as officials last year
in Milan, Italy, say they found one point six million worth of cocaine
stuffed into the upholstery of a motorized wheelchair. Yeah. Yeah, they're gonna
look extra hard at that. And it's a bit of a catch twenty two
because like if you go aggressive on medical products or like, ah, you're
harassing the person who needs the medical thing. But also it's a pretty good
place to hide stuff. I think the Escobar. One of the Escobar's things
was he used to use crutches not to mention the seats of like a bunch
of planes. Like he'd bribe out whole flight crews and they would literally remove
you know, you're on a plane. They're like, hey, if we
go into the ocean, which you'll totally be fine, right, We do
this all the time. We go into the ocean, just you know,
quietly and in a calm manner, reach under your seat and there's a life
vest, right you get the whole rigamarow. So that area. If you
ever flip up an airline seat, there's there's a bulk pocket right underneath the
in a lot of them. Sometimes they're in the back of the console and
the seat in front of you, but on the older ones you flip it
open. I think it was Avianca at the time, and you just lip
the seat boom and they removed all the life vests and replace the cocaine.
And that's how they were smuggling. So if you did go down on the
ocean, you had to hold on to kilos of coat which do float,
you know, probably not get to save you. So there you go.
All right, another half hour to get into PCO day radio program. They
hang up Your Day Smarter one O six one FM Talk and News Talk ninety
four to five WPTI more with case starts. Now, some of you are
sending me jokes about well, I mean, how much is one point five
million cocaine in the electric wheelchair? What about inflation? And actually I read
an article one time and they were talking about how when financial troubles move in,
you know, inflation and recessions and things like that, that actually it
has a bit of a stabilizing effect and in some cases perhaps decreasing effect on
the price of narcotics because people may be more inclined to seek it out because
everything else sucks. So not encouraging you to do that, I'm just pointing
out that arguably it's one of the most inflation responsive markets of the financial sector.
So put all your money in opium or don't. I'm not a financial
expert, so maybe talk to one of them who advertises clown that continues to
terrorize a Scottish town is now taunting local police to capture him. Good lord,
the person addressed as Stephen King's pennywise, the dancing clown has drawn the
ire of a local officials in a small town of Skilmore Lee, Skilmore Lee.
I have no idea. It's near Edinburgh, which isn't pronounced how it's
spelled, so good luck on that is now daring police to either get involved
or find him because they're looking for him because he's scaring people, not really
doing anything, just stand around looking creepy. But you know how folks are.
Was fascinating and was trying to read through this article and figure out what
some of the witnesses are talking about, because they got a whole other language,
man, they got a whole other language when it comes to a Scottish
slang. Dude. Some of these like and I I don't even know if
I can read some of these on the air, but uh, some of
them are ingenious. Let's see you here, hold on, let me let
me try a few on you so later today, like if you need to
insult your boss or something, you're armed to the teeth and they won't even
know unless they're Scottish or they listen to the show as well. Let's see
here. Here's so if you think your boss is an idiot, you can
refer to them as a dafty, a tube, or a numpty or a
bampot or an egypt Egypt, all acceptable phrases in Scotland to describe somebody you
think is a fool. Uh. Probably can't read those because those are body
parts. Wallaper is a good word, though, I'll let you figure out
what that is. Where's the one here we go. Let's say let's say
you wanted to assault a woman, all right, because she's annoying or whatever.
Right do you think of the US terms? But in Scotland if you
refer to her as a boot, which I thought was the trunk of a
car in England, and I would assume up into scott I don't know,
I don't know. Not from there you can go with that. If somebody's
annoying you, you can say they're quote doing your nut, in nut refers
to your head or your brain. So, and let's say somebody says something
to you and you're like, that's bs. You would say your bums out
the wind. I feel like we're learning this morning. I was only prompted
to do this because a couple of the witness things. I'm like, I
can't tell if they're pro clown or anti clown, but after learning about this
stuff, it seems they're anti clown. But he's told authorities catch me if
you can, you can do nothing. So I'm gonna go that reincarnated William
Wallace but in a Pennywise costume, and should be pretty amazing to watch that
play out. All right, few other things I'll get totally silent. Tracked
on that France has mobilized seven thousand soldiers in an effort to increase security following
a stabbing at a high school last week in which the suspect allegedly shouted a
la akbar during the attack. Also, I saw the defense minister basically say,
hey, if you're gonna go out and you're gonna hold a rally in
support literally of Hamas or terrorism, probably gonna get arrested. France has a
bit of a tenuous issue. If you've ever i don't know, been to
Paris in the last fifteen years, as they have an awful lot, awful
lot of folks who have in previous rallies expressed a lot of support with the
Palestinian position, you know, and you get into the discussions of no go
zones and everybody go, oh, well, it's not technically, it's not
like there's a gate there. But in reality, what they're saying is you
have big pockets and nuggets of not just Paris, but other places that have
essentially reverted to neighborhoods of the countries that previously hosted the individuals who lived there,
which isn't wholly unusual. Right, that's the reason you got Chinatown.
You go to New York, got Chinatown, little Italy. I talked about
the Jewish quarter there in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Right. The difference is it's
also where there's a lot of radicalization and stories to be tracked back to some
of the incident. I think the dude who actually drove the truck down a
nice was from. There's a whole area in Paris and I can't remember the
name of it, but that when you see these stories, there tends to
be a connection. So I think that's what officials are targeting there. The
twenty four year old suspect on Friday was detained leaving a mosque on the outskirts
of Paris while carrying a knife. This a day after the former head of
Hamas urged Muslims worldwide to hold a day of rage, and it played out
in several places on the flip side. In one instance you had a dude's
stablished six year old. So everyone is absolutely on edge. But the demonstration
is set to continue this week, not just in France, but others planned
here in the US as the moved through Gaza continues, and as you can
imagine, we'll definitely be part of the show moving forward. So all right,
let's get to race stagic from the Weather Channel Santa Bay here, oh
man, between the whacked out NFL all the Middle East stuff and some dude,
did you see the heist, the liquor heist down in Florida? No?
Oh yeah, they took a s my truck, smashed through the wall
and stole four forty seven hundred cases of booze. It's Jose Quervo tequila,
Malibu and Phronsie wine. You imagine the hango? Is that a lot?
Forty seven hundred cases. That's a lot. I want to know how long
it took to load. Did they use the actual skid loader or did they
do it by hand? I mean, I really have no idea, and
I just just the idea of consuming those three things together makes my head hurt.
Yeah, that sounds pretty painful if you ask me. Right, Yeah,
it's gracious only flower stuff, man, not like it's this is what
I understand, like, uh, stealing liquor, but stealing bad liquor.
You remember, do you remember when Ferguson was on fire? I do,
yeah, And they had this one incident where it's, uh, there's a
store and it's something like meat and liquor. Right, it's the store,
the store's name is And I'm like, you know, what good? What
else did you need? That's that's a place I would shop, babe,
if it was near me. And I had this dude running out and it's
this huge it looks like the size of a Walmart. The guy's running out
and he's got he's got the tube, like the the the poor people tube
of ground beef. Right, We're questionable whether it's ground beef and a bottle
in a bottle of green apple schnops, and I'm like, come on,
man, you had you're not paying, so it doesn't matter what it come
out with some ta bones in a nice eighteen year If you're not rying for
it, what does it matter? You went with the tube of beef,
baby bee and green schnops unacceptable. So yeah, I tried the tube of
ground beef once and the wife said, yeah, I'm not eating that.
Yeah, but why ground is it? I don't know. I don't know.
It tastes different though it does. Oh, I'm gonna have to try
it, but myself obviously, Okay, nobody else in Mike. But if
you're looting a store and you have, you have your your choice of everything
because you're not paying. Again, sure you're getting some you're getting some ribbi,
right, you know exactly? Maybe you know, maybe an obon or
you know, something aged and nice, nice little finished. Yeah, yeah,
I'm not going for the tube of ground. Yeah, shops, that's
nice stories I could tell anyway. But all right, so it's going on
as a good looting weather. What's going on? Yeah, good great looting
weather. Whatever you want to do. Temperatures. Now, I've come down
a bit from twenty four hours ago. Twenty four hour tep change about five
to ten degrees across the Triad and a triangle. It's low and mid forties
from about Greensboro Winston Salem west and then the mountains where in the Smokies there
was snow overnight, some snow flakes, first flakes of the season. And
we get close to the triangle, we're closer to fifty degrees, but there's
some mid forties and low forties to the north as you get up near Rocksboro,
a little bit of elevation, and the weather it's going to be real
nice yere as we go through the day, it might be a sprinkle of
rain. Other than that, pretty good shape, cloud, sunshine and low
sixties, low forties. Tonight it's everybody little core. There'll be plenty of
thirties around, especially from the Triad west. Sunday, Tomorrow, sunny,
Wednesday, sunny Thursday, up sixties, low seventies with the chance of showers
Friday. So a real nice week today, probably the worst of the next
four, but Friday looks like a decent chance. I've seen some showers.
We need to get. We need to get the first minute, whatever it
is, we need the first snowfall, so I can get through the stupid
social media where everyone's the first snow look at my patio and the it's a
little and you're showing it on there. Yeah, and you're showing it to
your neighbor whose patio is next to yours, Like yes, aren't you.
Well, that's happening in the mountain communities, some of the mountain communities right
now. So annoying, like oh my gosh, what happened that happened?
This didn't happen last year. Yeah, anyway, all right, see you
have it going okay? Yep, and Joan donagh are in for Jeff Bellinger,
will chat next. Hang on keeping you connected. This is ninety four
to five WPTI in the Triad and one six one FM Talk in the Triangle.
It could be free your Bloomberg Update with Joan Donneager today, Joan,
what's happening? Okay? See ride Aid has filed for bankruptcy at plans to
close more stores. MarketWatch says this morning, though right Aid did manage to
capture some more financing and it has an agreement with creditors on how to restructure.
The drugstore chain, has not had the money to settle hundreds of federal,
state, and private lawsuits that charge it over supplied opioid painkillers. Right
Aid Right Now has twenty one hundred stores with about fifty thousand employees. The
company has been struggling for years, trailing behind CBS and Walgreens. Apple is
already fighting the weakest smartphone demanded about ten years. China's government mandate to expand
the ban on iPhone use is not helping, and Counterpoint Research says sales in
China of the new Apple flagship model iPhone fifteen are down about four and a
half percent compared with last year's model. When you look over the first two
and a half week's post release, Jeffrey's analysts figure sales of the iPhone fifteen
were actually down even more after homegrown Huawei Technologies outsold Apple overall. Might not
be a happy holiday for airlines this year. Bank Rate says more people do
plan to travel for the holidays forty eight percent compared to last year's forty three
percent, but twenty seven percent told bank Rade they will drive instead of fly,
and those who are going away on vacations at the holidays plan to stay
in less expensive hotels or choose less expensive destinations, and it is tough out
there for newly minted nbas. The Wall Street Journal says companies are cutting back
the number of NBA hires this fall, delaying hiring. Some of the firms
say they're holding off making moves till they get a better picture of next year's
business outlook. And finally, Casey, was the Eras Tour movie a big
hit or not? Tomscore says the Taylor Swift concert movie delivered about ninety six
million dollars in ticket sales this weekend, but box office process that came up
short. It was expected to pull in anywhere from one hundred and five to
one hundred and forty five. So because it's tough to predict receipts for such
an unusual release box office process, that's still worth celebrating because everybody loves Taylor
Swift, right, I know, could it just infiltrate any other aspect of
anything? Every she was holding hands with Travis Kelcey. Here's some video.
Well you know now that it's infiltrated at the NFL, it is everywhere.
Yeah, can't escape not please not please? All right, Joan, thank
you much, You're all week here with us, right all week, I'll
talk to Mark. What is Jeff? What is Jeff doing like bungee jumping
or something or exactly what would you think Jeff would do on vacas? I
assume extreme sports? So all right, thank you, appreciate it. All
right, there you go, Johan Doneager from Bloomberg News. So that's confirmed.
I had my suspicions. A woman in Flora or excuse me, Georgia.
I just assumed it's Florida hit the trifecta after authorities in Cobb County made
a major drug bus. So, Georgia, like a lot of states,
has escalators on some charges. Right, So depending on what it is you're
doing. If you're doing something you shouldn't be doing, and it happens to
be in a certain distance of school or a daycare center, a drug rehab
facility, and you're selling drugs, you can find yourself getting an escalation to
your charge. Or it's like speeding in a school zone, right, can
some places be an extra charge. So police bust this woman for drug trafficking
and sale marijuana, methaphetamine, cocaine, and powder cocaine. So she had
crack and powder. I guess is what they're saying. The problem was the
corner where she chose to do it, or reside to do it, is
perfectly within distance of a daycare, actually two daycares, a school, and
a substance recovery center, which in the state of Georgia, each one of
those. If you're caught with certain drug offenses within it, like a thousand
feet of them, it adds to your charge. Her problem, she hit
all three in her distancing, didn't check the maps before going into the drug
business, and as a result, she got all of those added on.
And she does have a lot of drugs there, Holy cow, a lot
of drugs, man. But yeah, so that has added a lot of
teeth to the current current charges. So you know, good for her.
Man. It's like that guy you saw, everyone's freaking out over this ticket
some dude got in Where is it Georgia? I think? Also, yeah,
man, slap with one point four million dollars speeding ticket for driving thirty
five miles over the limit. Except he's not. Actually, according to authorities
near Savannah where this happened, it's actually a placeholder thing that their software uses
that mistakenly attached to the ticket because he is what is known as a super
speeder, which requires a court appearance. The way they explain it doesn't make
sense, but he's not getting fine that you will have to go to court
though. So anyway, all right, there's your Monday show. See you tomorrow.
