Remember remember all right, kid, wanting everybody and welcome. I'm sitting here
like I've never worked a gatorade bottle, trying to trying to put the lid
back on. Oh yeah, is it Friday yet? Yeah? Close enough?
So it's it's Doomsday Thursday, as I'm calling it around here, because
that's what it is. If you're a Vikings player tonight against the Eagles.
I suspect, but who knows, man any given Sunday, right, any
given Sunday. And last year there were some crazy upsets early in the season.
There's been a couple this year, so who knows. So I'm a
little not looking forward to that later. But that being said, we do
got a good stack of stuff. We got some rollover stuff we didn't get
to yesterday. By the way, Ross, I didn't realize how small the
Mexican alien bodies were because I never I saw. I looked at a bunch
of photos, but I just took it for granted how big they were.
And then I happen to see a video after the show. They're like us.
They're like the size of a small dog. Man, did you realize
that they're not as like small as like the alien in the dude's head and
men in black, right, but they're still pretty. They're tiny, yeah
they are. I was thinking of some other men in black references. But
they're they're they're not even as big as the three dudes in the coffee room
right that are got their little bungalow two. I can't remember if they have
names or whatever, but they kind of kind of are in all of the
they're they're the size of the pug man. It's no wonder they didn't make
it. And you know that's that's assuming they're not just paper and machete or
something. But now I had no idea. So those were tiny little coffins.
But when you saw them in the in the pictures, just by themselves,
I just took it for granted that they were they weren't big ones,
because you know, you kind of in your brain because you said, and
you were right. It kind of looks like et. I went for et
size or the grays, you know, the little gray aliens, which are
what what are they three and a half four feet? Those things are the
size of things are the size of a of a of a yip dog,
a yip yip dog. So I don't know, man, I don't know
if that makes them less or more believable for people, but kind of a
letdown, I guess. I don't know. But you know, as we
saw in Mars attacks, you don't have to be big to come here and
mess everything up for us, I mean, mess everything up. They come
in peace? Do they do? They come in peace? I mean Hindsights
twenty twenty. Did you still feel that way? In fact? You know?
In fact is celebrate. I'm going to release all these doves. Oh,
that's very nice of you. That's ah, that should that should be.
That should end well, right, we shouldn't get any letters from Peter
or anything. Ah, dude, I'm trying to think of the last time
I saw that movie. It's been a while. It's been a long while.
But yeah, you know, just because you're small, unless you're Marvin
Martian and then it never works out for you anyway. All right. So
yeah, just a little housekeeping update this morning because it was on my brain
as I was fighting with my gatorade bottle. All right, coming up,
So this is this Supreme Court things getting nasty and if not, just what
we talked about yesterday where the governor basically decided he was going to take the
appointment and put an activist in there from like one of the big activist groups.
And I just pointed out that if I was if the Republican governor was
in there and he was only appointing people out of activist groups, I understand
the there is going to be a qualifying, a qualifying thought process on the
part of the governor as to where they think they're going to vote, because
that's how we do judges, Supreme Court, state Supreme Court. Obviously at
the national level, it is what it is. That being said, if
you were pulling people directly out of activist groups the Republicans were, they'd be
losing their damn mind. So that was the thing yesterday. If you don't
know, there is a complaint on the other Democrats Anita earls or an investigation
for criticizing racial and gender biases within the state court systems, and there is
there's some language and a rule that judge can be held accountable for if they
violate the rule the judges have for impugning the integrity of the courts. Now,
one could argue that the two fast tracks show trials that the Democratic would
you know prior to seating the Republicans who won in the last election. The
the fast track decisions on two big issues with legal theory that I nobody can
seem to understand, which has now been undone, that that was impugning the
integrity of the court because they weren't even trying to make a legal argument.
It was crazy town, man. So in this case, now we have
a state rep who is out there and is throwing names out and making accusations
as to who he thinks is responsible. So yeah, well we'll touch on
that. I'll tell you the Rep is Abe Jones, and he's accusing the
Chief Justice of doing it. Now, in these particular cases, whoever triggered
the investigation, whoever initiated is a secret under the law. But Abe Jones
is out there, he's running around and he says I got some sources,
and Riel just took him at his word and ran a whole story on it.
So we'll give you a few more of the details on that. We
got McCarthy stuff. We had another incident at UNC, albeit arguably different,
And I have a question for all the students who came to the legislature the
other day who don't admittedly nobody wants to have to have something like this happened
near them, whether it's the incident from yesterday the student accused of killing his
advisor. That being said, if you're really serious about stopping it, I
I feel like there's some other things that maybe you should consider lobbying for,
voting for, so we'll touch on that as well. And uh yeah,
oh dude, this this ross. Did you watch the wedding video? Did
you watch the drunks at that Rhode Island wedding come out and go full cage
match with the police. It's like, yeah, yeah, I watched it
while loading the audioly twenty minutes ago. Okay, dude, very classy.
Dude. Look, people are mad at that police officer for dropping that check.
But there's another video. I don't know if you saw it from a
different angle. She is straight up behind him pulling hit trying to pull his
gun out or something off of his belt. And I'm pretty sure that you
don't do that. And we're gonna have to break it down because the amount
of people I saw who I don't necessarily believe, who are like, you
know, normally I'm a supporter of police, but this is too far.
You don't hit a woman. You know, a woman can grab your firearm
and kill you. That's like Michael Brown stuff man. Yes, yeah,
except when you see the other video angle it's so apparent. It's not we're
not having to look at forensics and figure out where there is powder residue and
all that. Like you can straight up see it. And the women were
out there kicking the officers in the you know where you don't where. If
you kick men, it can be pretty incapacitating. And it is twenty you
know, like twenty different instances as you go through that video, some people
repeating it where individuals are putting their hands on police, are screaming or are
within inches of officers who are trying to subdue at least a couple of them,
and the police are outnumbered. And I guess if you haven't seen the
video, go watch it. We got it on the on the Twitter at
Casey on the radio, so that you have it fresh in your mind,
because I want to go over it and we'll tell you what everybody's charged with.
And I think it's nice they're gonna get initial appearance before the honeymoon,
so maybe maybe they'll get to do that. But yeah, that thing was
That thing is bonkers, man, but it is six seventeen. Will take
a break, be back on the k c O Day radio program. This
is one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle and there's talk w PTI
in the Tryead. All right, welcome back, six twenty two ac O
Day Radio program. And the wedding brawl from one of the more insane I
guess not in the middle of a riot. We'll say that interactions with police,
because obviously we saw during riots and protests, you know, some seriously
insane things over the last few years. But you know this is this is
police responding. I don't even why are they responding anyway, I don't know
that it's said, but they were. They were in the process. Oh
okay, all right, here we go. So they had a guest who
wanted to get into this wedding, but he showed up hammered, hammered.
The guy's name David Ohnick. So security staff called around one am. Disorderly
party apparently had been at the wedding, went somewhere else. They're in like
this this restaurant on this is a new port, so it's on the water.
Basically everything is and the guy had left and was coming back, but
he was he was in no condition. He was being belligerent and he wouldn't
leave, so secured he did what secured he did. So police are literally
talking to the dude outside the door, and a crowd has gathered, including
his wife, and it all told six people were arrested, but there's easily
like ten standing around there, and they start surrounding the officers who tell them
repeatedly to move away, because again you're encircled, you're against a door which
is shut, and your attention is attempting to deal with the reason you're there
and when you are and I'm saying like inches away. Police don't like that,
and they told him repeatedly, repeatedly, you gotta move back, you
gotta move back. The people who were standing back even a few feet filming
police didn't seem to have a care there. Then they ended up going hands
on after the wife tripped and fell during her arrest. Then an additional like
two women moved in and started kicking officers in the groin. Then two dudes
jumped in, and there is a there is a slap that an officer administers
on a woman that irritates the biggest dude there. Now he's up on the
officer's back, thirty year old Robert Nash. He punches one of the officers
who is knocked over. His nose is bloody and broken. And then again
you have the officers out, number three to one, and they're inside the
circle. It's a nightmare scenario. Man. I wouldn't want to be in
there. I wouldn't want anything to do with it, knowing that all those
people were mad at me, regardless if I'm police or whatever. And then
if you look at that, you can look at the main video and you'll
kind of see it. But there's another video where you see this woman literally
reach and grab something on his belt and at that point he knocks her out,
and then everybody's screaming. All told, six people were arrested. They're
charged with, let's see here, everything resisting arrest, obstruction of justice,
to sorderly conduct, assault on a police officer. I'm not going to read
all their charges, but everybody's got a little bit of what I just read
there. And of course they're like, oh, the cops were way out
of line with this. I don't think so. Look, it's aggressive and
that when that that woman who reached for the officer's belt goes down, she
goes down hard. But frankly, she's lucky that's all she got. And
I don't mean that in I want to see police just roughening people up for
no reason. That's a big, big, big deal, man. That
is. That is something that has triggered multiple stories that we've done where people
have gotten something off an officer's belt and an officer generally another officer used deadly
force and was justified. That was the whole Wendy's thing, remember down in
Atlanta with at the Wendy's that isn't there anymore because they burned it down because
you know, that's what you do when you don't like how something played out
and don't want to wait for people to investigate. So yeah, and kicking
officers in the groin? How many how many guys have been incapacitated from getting
hit in the groin? Dude, I'm telling you that is. It is
definitively one of the craziest videos. I think it's just because it's a wedding,
right, It's not a bunch of I mean, it is a bunch
of drunks. I understand that, but you're at a wedding, and I
guess even when I've encountered really drunk people at Wait, I watched a dude
get arrested at a wedding. I wasn't at the wedding, but I was
near the wedding and everyone else was hammered, and it was kind of a
singular instance. So I don't know, Ross and I say, we don't
like going to weddings, but I would have watched from a safe distance and
been quite entertained to see this thing live. But yeah, the you know,
you screw around you find out. That's the only way I can say
it on the radio. But check it out at Casey on the radio,
on the Twitter. We got it there for you. We'll be back hang
on. So after the show is on the iHeart radio app, search Casey
O Day for the podcast on the iHeart Radio app. All right, good
morning and welcome. It is six thirty five. Do you do you do?
Oh? Check this out. I know you're gonna be shocked to learn.
So, uh, we told you about and we talked about this with
Senator Bud Tuesday. But the announcement on Monday, which of course was nine
to eleven anniversary where the US had apparently struct some sort of deal with Iran,
and the deal as we as we talked about continues to be another one
where I just want to start a country and do nothing but negotiate with the
US because you're gonna make some cash or you're or you're gonna come out on
top. We're not good at negotiating. Right now, the US and Iran
would swap five prisoners each, and the US would so people people sit there
and they go, well, what they're they're We're not sending them six billion
dollars. It's technically their money. It is kind of mostly, but it's
frozen, and it's frozen because they are the largest state sponsor of terrorism.
So yeah, it's still a piece in a negotiation. So to act like
it's it's just their money and it shouldn't be counted. And uh, you
know, Biden done good because five for five is equal is wildly disingenuous.
They don't have access to it. It's uh, I think it's in South
Korea right now. As part of the deal, we would move it to
UAE somewhere one of the friendly or one of the countries. We're friendly with
anyway. Yeah, all right, and at that point rather than just trans
spring it on palettes as we did under Obama. The reason you do that
is so that you can micromanage what they use it. It would be Qatar,
okay, and there it would be under strict oversight by the US Treasury
Department because of the deal that we have Qatar with Qatar, so we can
do this stuff and the money will only be used for humanitarian purposes. That's
what we were told. Now, you could make the argument if you have
six billion coming in, you know, for humanitarian purposes approved stuff, then
it allows you to move money out of that and spend it on not so
nice stuff. The problem is this, it sounds like Iran is either either
we were not told what the actual deal is or they're trying to change it.
So Iranian President Abraham or ross RISI I don't even know how to say
his name, sat dow Lester Holt for an exclusive interview and disagree that that's
the terms of the deal. According to the Iranian president, he said,
and I quote, that they would have the authority to decide how the unfrozen
funds would be spent. The money belongs to the Iranian people, the Iranian
government, so I Ran will decide what to do with the money. Again,
is you know, is that him bloviating a little bit, But ultimately,
if we're going to sit here and do a deal, and even if
he's going to misrepresent it, it's again a bargaining ship. So all of
these people are sitting there running around like, well, it's their money anyway.
Obviously it is an important negotiation point because this is seemingly where the sticking
point is. They don't care about the five for five. I've seen people
suggest that we're essentially paying right, We're we're paying for the release of our
people, which you don't want to do. We don't negotiate with terrorists,
We don't. You don't want to set a scenario where anyone can just take
US residents hostage or US individuals hostage and the government will just pay you.
Every time we do something like that, it it just encourages more of it.
So we threw in the five Iranians to make it look even. But
the sticking point is the money. This is what this is about. Iran's
got a horrible economy, They got a lot of problems because there's a lot
of sanctions, and also, you know the government's a little tyrannical. They
need the money. And for them to sit there and just decide they're going
to do it, they don't have any respect for what we're doing. I
don't want them to get it anyway. But if they're gonna, you know,
sit down with Lester Hold and say we're gonna we're gonna disregard this,
why is the Biden administration not immediately said all right, well, if you
don't want to do the deal, we're not going to do the deal.
I haven't heard a peep from him. He went on to say the Iranian
president humanitarian means whatever the Iranian people need. Well, the Iranian government thinks
the Iranian people need, uh, you know, weapons to destroy Israel with
or you know, the US if I guess they get a chance at it.
So they need they need all the stuff that they're not supposed to get.
How do we know, because we have an idea of what they already
spend their money on, and it's a whole lot of things that go boom
man. So I would hope somebody within this administration, maybe within the State
Department. I'm not holding my breath goes on and says, well, look,
this is what it is. He can say that all he wants,
but here's the document or here's what we're going to do. I don't like
the deal, but you damn sure better represent the deal and and handle it
in the way that you say you're going to instead of just letting him go
on and set the terms for it. And you go, oh, well,
okay, all right, well we already still we're going to do it,
so we'll go ahead and do it and hopefully they don't use it for
a new program or something does mind boggling man, So there you go.
Yeah, they're already backing out. And that's only one of two stories we
have. I'm reading some of the stuff that our governor was tweeting the last
couple of days, and I'm wondering if his whole put Medicaid expansion in the
budget bill and I'll sign it is something that he's willing to do anymore,
because now he's on there complaining about vouchers and everything. We'll touch on that
story coming up probably in the next hour. So just f yi, that's
on the way. Okay, dude, this story right here, so as
you have probably heard and then ignored because screw Hollywood. If you want to
be nominated for an Oscar, and I think the Baptist too, which is
the British thing of the Oscars or their version of the Oscars, you have
to meet diversity guidelines. And I remember reading through these things and it's you
know, it could be a percentage of the people that are working. It
can be some of the staff. When I say working, I don't just
mean like on screen, but there is a component of that as well.
You get more points if it's on screen, if their lead from a writer's
perspective, and for a percentage of the staff that you don't see, you
know, caterers, key grips, lighting people, you name it right and
if and then the the theme of what you're doing right counts and you have
to you have to cobble together enough points if you want to have your movie
be able to be eligible for awards. Okay, So there's a movie coming
out and it's let's see Mads Michelson why I'm down with It's called The Promised
Land. And so they were at where were they at there at one of
the one of the film festivals, and it's time now for the director,
and uh Mad's if you don't know who that is, He's he played the
bad guy in one of the Bond movies, Casino Royale. So when they're
at the table, he's the he's the bad dude. Okay, so he's
he's a star in this. He's sitting there with the director, and the
reporter asked, and this is the question of a movie which is uh let's
see seven. It's set in the seventeen fifties in Denmark, and it will
not currently qualify for Best Picture at the Oscars because of the new rules.
And this is the reporter's question. This is a reporter. By the way,
the film is entirely Nordic. It therefore has some lack of diverse with
the new rules implied in Hollywood. The journalist then goes on to explain some
of it, YadA, YadA, YadA, and then goes why did you
make the movie and not have why did you make the movie and not have
a more diverse staff? In fact, here here we go. Here is
here's the insanity of the Q and A. And then the response here from
the from the director and she the reporter asked in a much more irritating way.
But I think you know what the answer is here. They are responding,
this is a cast and a dangers production which is entirely Nordic, therefore
has some lack of diversity. You would say that's also new rules implied.
Are you going to sorry? But there is said some Okay, Well,
first of all, the film takes place at Denmark in the seventeen fifties.
I'm not a I'm not a Danish scholar. I like history, but I
admit that I haven't done a lot of review of the population of Denmark in
the seventeen fifties. However, if he had to guess, Ross, if
you just had to venture a guess, what would you say the percentage of
BIPOC individuals in seventeen fifties Denmark was Yeah, we're just ventured. We're just
guessing one or two, one or two percent. No total people, maybe
it's just one or two of them. Yeah. In fact, the director
goes on to say that like they do have and they have one actor who
is and I think he said, that's probably an accurate account of how many
people in the Nordic countries were black in seventeen fifties or in the seventeen fifties,
and he's got to sit there and say that, and then he's gotta
listen the snotty questions from the reporters, the woman and the dude and just
stare at them like they're idiots. Right, look, you understand, you're
you want to you want to get an answer to various questions, and sometimes
you ask a question you kind of know the answer to. I do that
when I'm interviewing people because I want them to be able to pass the information
on to you who maybe didn't get a copy of the press release that their
office had sent out. That's fine, that's just a stupid question. That's
just the dude is a reporter who obviously is a European reporter who fully understands
what the seventeen fifties in Denmark and in many most of the countries for that
matter, look like anyone who's not touching the Mediterranean, I guess. And
he's got to sit there and act like he's answering that and not go,
you guys are all dumb. You guys are all flipping morons. But man,
it's this is this is the thing that has come up before it came
up with Dunkirk, right, Remember they were mad, They're like, why
is there not more diversity in the big crowd shots of the troops and Dunkirk
and literally you had to go, well, if you look at the British
population, especially the British military during the era of the Battle of Dunkirk in
World War Two, was a lot of white dudes, was almost exclusively white
dudes. And then they get in a beef. But now they have created
these rules where you can go ahead and say that, but they're not even
going to consider your movie. And they already have a problem ignoring movies that
are actual popular movies for people gone or those days, right, and now
you just they're not even gonna be able to be considered, and they're gonna
sit there and go, I can't believe less people are watching this year's awards.
But ah, that's where we sit, man, all right. Eight
eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. I do enjoy, though,
all of the memes that people have put together with like you know,
with the reimagined movie posters, the Disney spond I think Little Mermaid really kicked
that into high gear and they had like twelve years a slave with who was
it Brad Pitt or something. Right, there's some great movie poster memes on
this, and this thing ain't stopping, all right, eight eight eight nine
three four seven eight seven four. They are very interested in Lauren Bobert's trip
to the theater and now they're now they're outing her companion. And I gotta
tell you, man, this is this is some dirty politics stuff going on
right here. They're trying to get this dude canceled. I am one hundred
percent on that theory, and I believe that to be true. I'll explain
why coming up here on the case O Day radio program Smart Talk All Day,
five w PTI in the Triad and one six one FM Talk in the
Triangle. All right, good, good morning here six fifty eight. So
here's what we're gonna do. We get into the next hour. The incident
on UNC's campus, obviously was from a news perspective, was very elevated because
of the recent shooting of a supervisor excuse me, a constructor by one of
his students, allegedly. And you know, we didn't know what was going
on at first. Well, now we do. We have a scope of
the incident, and uh, we have a little background, which I think
might be you know, kind of important since everyone was at the legislature screaming
at the elected officials so they couldn't do their job. We'll have some suggestions
next after the news hang up. All right, good morning everybody, and
welcome. It is seven h seven hour number two here running Thursday. So
yesterday, let's see, because uh, we had we had some of our
bosses sending out emails about this breaking news, alerts for internal stuff, and
a lot of people were on edge as a report came out of an individual
at UNC with a gun, very limited information as to what was going on
it when it initially came out armed and dangerous person on or near campus was
the exact quote from UNC Chapel Hills Police, and within about an hour the
all clear was given. So this is this was not what it was the
the other time, right, This was not an individual who had a person
in mind and was according to police again individuals just charged. But an individual
with a person in mind that they were going to that campus to shoot,
which is obviously what we know of the other one appears to be what happened,
and even after it was a singular incident, something that within my just
a few miles of the UNC campus. Happens quite regularly. Just get on
fifteen five on one at on the hill to Durham, and unfortunately, that
is, that is the reality for many folks who reside in the city there
and can't can't, can't afford to necessarily move away from those areas. And
every time we see one of these horrific stories, or you know, Durham
had eight shootings the other day, kind of you know days, I feel
horrible for those folks because there have been abandoned by the leadership, by the
people who are supposed to be handling these things. But it brought about a
big reaction, and of course there was press conferences, there was threats to
march to the capitol. We played some of the audio. It was you'd
have thought it was Virginia Tech. And it's look, it's important to realize
murders illegal. And I roundly recognized that anyone who was on the campus near
God forbidden in that building and the lab building there. It was a very
emotional incident. I don't begrudge anybody then, but you got to deal with
the reality once you say, all right, now we saw what this is,
let's figure out how to make sure it doesn't happen again. This thing
yesterday was different, and it was different in the sense that you had somebody
who went into a bagel shop on campus and flashed a gun at a clark.
I don't know if there was a bagel disagreement. I'm not sure.
I'm not sure why this individual decided that he had to show a firearm to
the Alpine Bagel Cafe employee. Now the cafe is on campus. There there
was a loud confrontation and then boom, flashing the gun. I wanted to
make his point. Didn't have, apparently, you know, the negotiating skills
to do it like a productive member of society. If there is a disagreement,
you can have a conversation. Nope, I had to go all all
gangster. And that's what police are responding to yesterday. Now we saw then,
and I'm trying to meld these two stories together. We saw students then
rally. They rallied on campus in a high fight where you're hand You read
that growing up in your schools. Change. It's not a choice, it's
a necessity. You want the General Assembly to ask Thomases gone just like shooting
after shooting after shooting for decades. Yeah, we don't ever seem to do
anything about it. Let's just leaders need to act like our lives depin on
it, because they do, all right, all right, so any you
know, it's pretty standard, which what you would see. And then from
there, David Hogg came to town. They got themselves, some students organized,
and they went to the capitol and they then decided to get up in
the gallery and out in the hallway and everywhere else and disrupt what was going
on. Okay, now we're up to speed. Let me talk about the
guy that they arrested yesterday, and perhaps maybe we can handles some of the
concerns of the students and maybe do so in a way that you're not thinking
of, because I promise you voting out the only people and I say this
is not on an individuals from an individual standpoint, but perhaps from an ideological
standpoint, the only ones who tend to actually do things. From a law
enforcement standpoint, maybe isn't your best solution. This guy they arrested yesterday,
his name is Mickel Harris. He lived He didn't live in Chapel Hill.
He lives over in Durham, but he likes to come to Chapel Hill.
He likes to come to Chapel Hill, and he didn't just come yesterday when
he was arrested. He was arrested actually just north of campus, so apparently
he had he had moved, they found him whatever, so he was arrested
on an outstanding weren't for arrest for his connection to the UNC Chapel Hill incident.
Now, the way that they were able to handle the arrest, not
just in this case but also provide a little background was fairly easy because this
dude's a frequent flyer. And in fact, on the fifth, so not
even ten days ago, on the fifth of September, he visited another another
place of business. This time it was in let's see, in the town
of Chapel Hill, an old Durham Road and Scarlet I don't know exactly where
that is, specifically the Carolina Blue Mini Mart. According to a police report
on this during the September fifth incident, Harris decided to and I want you
to I want you to hear all the stuff that he's accused of doing.
He he is facing charges of assault by pointing a gun, communicating threats and
going armed to the terror of the public. Now, why don't you ask
yourself? And this is an assault also assault charges on Wednesday's incident. So
if this dude did all of those things and was out and it's not even
been ten days and or you know, they knew who it was, they
knew all this stuff, and he was he's facing the charges related to the
incident, Why the hell is he in a position ten days later to go
in and wave a gun at a bagel shop? And who do you think
is running the criminal justice system that would sit there and go, yeah,
let's you walked into a gas station, you assaulted somebody, threatened them with
a firearm, where this guy would then be in a position to do it
ten days later. And by the way, that is not the totality of
his rap sheet, but it is something that literally happened this month, a
week and a half ago. So if you want to go scream at politicians
or you want to ask yourself, how do we find ourselves in a situation
where there are bad people out there that are able to do bad things.
You're not it's not going to deal with all of it. I'm just saying
this is a piece of the puzzle. It doesn't sound like the student is
accused of shooting his instructor had a rap sheet, so maybe this wouldn't necessarily
deal with that. But a big chunk the majority of what you're dealing with
from a firearms violence, especially over in Chapel Hill, Durham and surrounding areas
there is due to people who are not legally possessing a firearm, who are
out in criminal acts. Are firing shots, are killing six year olds going
to get snow cones, are robbing stores, assaulting gas station clerks, trying
to you know, threaten a person, make it a bagel for them.
And they're not incarcerated where they should be. They're giving light sentences, they're
giving deferred prosecution. And I don't mean the first time where you're like,
all right, you know, everybody screws up once. These are these are
the people that they arrest. They arrest again and again and again. And
so I guess if you want to be mad one, if you voted for
the types of politicians who don't do anything, who want the softer sentences or
the das who don't want to prosecute, then I don't know that screaming at
Phil Berger and Crew's going to be the or Tim Moore is necessarily he's gonna
get you what you want. Why don't you go for the biggest threat in
in in your world right there? And that is the biggest threat as it
is in most any city in America county, doesn't matter whether it's red or
blue. And that's people who don't care what the laws are that you want
more of and go out and commit criminal acts. The difference is when those
individuals find themselves committing those criminal acts where they actually do sentence people, They
do hold him accountable, They do make sure they're not back out on the
street nine days later to do things it brings about a better result. And
I look, I understand he's not convicted of the Carolina Blue Mini mart incident.
But you might go in and point a gun at somebody, like if
if you're a legal gun owner, if you're a concealed carry person, and
you know that you don't get to go in, get into a disagreement over
the price of skittles or whatever it is, or the way your bagel's made
and point a gun of people and expect not to be held accountable. And
I would argue that the majority of the students, I don't know exactly how
they voted, but they sure sound like they probably voted for the very same
people. They went, Oh, well, you know, we don't want
to, we don't need we don't need bail or you know, a significant
bail or anything like that. We don't need to when somebody is a multiple
offender, and I'm talking into the double digits, we don't need to.
We don't need to realize that they don't seem to care that there's laws,
and they're just out making people's lives miserable. So what's more injurious the North
Carolina legislature who repealed a pistol permit a purchase thing but not a background check.
That still continues to ex or the individuals who don't punish people who then
break the very same laws that you're saying you want more of. You could
have saved yourself a lot of travel time too. It's a little bit of
a hall from Chapel Hill and over to the North Carolina Capital. It's a
nice visit. I encourage you to do it, but you save fuel and
that's that's a green thing to do. So yeah, I'm sorry but there
is there is something staring you right in the face. And if you want
to organize, and even if you want to continue to be upset over what
you think the Republicans should do, that's that you're well within your right.
But if you don't address what's literally staring you in the face, then I
feel like this isn't about solving the problem. It's about registering voters. And
I know you'll be shocked to learn that there was a lot of those uh,
a lot of those tweets from some of those same individuals who were down
there all right, seven nineteen phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four back in just a few so we one oh six one M
Talk and ninety four five w PTI, two stations driving the best in talk.
This is Casey O Day and Carolina's Morning News T five. Let's get
into phone calls now, Jamal, you're up first. What's up? Good
morning, Kasey. How are you doing? Uh? You know, my
voice is a little crap and I gotta watch the Vikings lose later, but
otherwise, you know, we're good. Can I do for you? I
thought, I thought I hear what you say, because this is what I'm
going off of, you said the gentleman who had four to gun and Chapolhield
was also did this in the Great City of derm and for some reason he
was laid out with a low bon or something like that. No, no,
no, no, no, no. I want to be I want
to be abundantly clear. Here he is from Durham the September obviously, the
incident yesterday is on UNC Chapel's campus. The September fifth incident where he was
arrested for putting a gun in somebody's face threatening to murder them or whatever his
threats were, and that happened in the town of Chapel Hill. Uh Selisa
Leahue, who's the Chapel Hill p D police chief, said an investigation led
us to seeking charges on assault related incidents. So she's so it was Chapel
Hill police on the September fifth incident. That's why I said. These kids
don't have to go anywhere, right, they just go talk to the people
in Chapel Hill that are supposed to be running things and ask them why they're
They just decided this dude didn't need to be in jail. I guess I
don't know where you know where tac it comes the time, because I thought
you would say that was in Durham, because I can take it who it
was. But since the dam does the same thing, man, I mean,
let's let's face it. During so Santana Doomberry is horrible. That's why
when you said, Dan, say you Wilson Darren, I am thinking,
oh, no, wonder. But here's the thing. And this is why
I say, the legislators and the legislators in Raleigh, our Republican legislators,
if they can send me papers and and always asking me to donate. You
you know, I donate to the Republican Party here, but it's just not
you know, you always send me this twenty five dollars letter. Then you
can send people out so when they have these protests, who are willing to
go down and speak for the second amend Man and speak for law and order.
And I have told you this, me and you, I think we
have disagree slightly on this time about they can start writing. Okay, they
need to start removing those DA's like that. They need to stop being scared
and start removing these DA's. Faith. I hear what you're saying, Tomal.
They have to have a mechanism like Florida has a mechanism for it,
and we kind of do here, but it could be better your day smarter
one oh six one FM Talk and News Talk ninety four five w PTI more
with case starts now. All right, here we go. It is seven
thirty five kc Okay Radio program. We're just reflecting on the UNC Chapel Hill
Hall of an individual who was armed in the on camp whose bagel shop had
displayed the firearm. I don't know if they brandished or pointed it, but
threatened, definitely threatened as it was part of a larger verbal altercation according to
police, and was arrested and they were you know, the headlines are are
we had to do this twice in sixteen days or whatever it is, And
and we had the students who went down to the state legislature to scream at
Republicans when as I sit here and I look at perhaps possibly some problems a
little closer to home that may contribute to this. And it's fine, Look,
it's fine if if we're going to have different ideas, but I would
like to hear some ideas rather than just screaming and ideas specifically that are actually
constitutional, unlike you know, what the New Mexico governor did, although a
judge did put a halt to that. Abiding to pointee, but again,
the problem that many of these these these big leftists have with what they did
is that they gave the game away so and they don't feel that that's because
they have to, you know, it has to be incremental what they're doing
to get what they want. And you go full boor start stripping rights,
people tend to look at you and go, you know what, I'm not
rooting for you anymore so anyway, but I just thought it was interesting that
literally not even ten days ago, this dude who was arrested yesterday allegedly was
just down the street doing the same thing at a gas station, pointing a
gun in the clerk's face, threatening to threatening to harm them. And it's
like, you know, maybe if we took stuff like this seriously and weren't
just you know, rinse it gets you in and then book back out on
the street. Because we decided to decriminalize crime for whatever reason, maybe that
would stop this guy from being in a position to go threaten somebody over a
bagel and terrify students and whoever else was in there. I'm telling you you
don't have to go all the way to the capitol. You can start right
there. There's some advice. All right, let's go to the phones.
Jake, what's up? Hey? Yeah, aren't that bagel brandisher? I
can say it's all about a response to me, why it is a response
higher at the school. But it's all your phones. Cut your phone's cutting
out, sir. You wanted to know why it was the response higher at
the school because well, I you know, keep in mind that they have
their own police department, right who all right, but right? And most
of the teams who I have gona throw the book at him? Now he's
not gonna throw the book at the earlier The response is not attack book team
for the guy at the gas station, there's actually assault is attack book game
for no assault, but just brandishing a fire on our school. These are
all legal adults at the school at the gun free zone. It weren't a
very gun free that day or the day that the teacher was shot. That's
my point. Oh okay, but it but it doesn't matter whether you're in
a gun free zone or not. I mean, I share your frustration with
the stapidity of it. But whether you're in a gun free zone or not,
if you pull a gun out during an argument, sticking in somebody's face
who's not like literally threatening your life in some way and threatened to cut them,
it's illegal. It's oh, I definitely agree. I know, okay,
there is a response between the gas stations, but life is just as
valuable as a snowflake who wasn't taught to be an adult on the in high
school and the grammar school. But it's taught to be a snowflake and now
they're legal adults, but their lives work more than the gas station guy.
As far as the Kirk, the guard gas stations, who I think he
was actually assault is looking not well now. The way I read it is
the assault was the sticking of the firearm in their face, which is which
is a It is an assault. Church. I don't know if they actually
may contact I didn't see that they did, but it doesn't matter. Meets
the requirements of assault. Here's the only thing I would say to that.
I think I think we're talking about two different things. We're talking one about
the initial the response of the police, right because it's two different departments we're
talking about here. You got campus police, then you got the City of
Chapel police. And I don't know what the level of response was that they
gave to the gas station clerk, but you're right in the way in which
it's being treated, Like I didn't see Josh Stein tweeting about that gas station
clerk this morning or over the last ten days, the governor, any of
these activists, And it's like, you know, maybe this would be even
if you want to work on the other stuff, maybe this would be another
thing to spend a few minutes protesting or talking to local elected officials, especially
those in the criminal justice. You know, the police can only arrest and
charge them with stuff to the extent that they can. And it sounds like
this individ Jewel is charged with what he is alleged to have done. So
it police did their job, but they don't control who gets bail and and
who gets you know, how the sentencing works. You know, that's an
issue there with the judges on the sentencing. That's and to some extent,
the prosecutor if they agree to these soft things. But all it's it's about
the the fervor that the prosecutor is going to have It's a it's a whole
whole combination of things, but you're right, which one is the story that
is hyped? Now? The irony, of course, is this thing's just
down the road from UNC Chapel Hill. There might very well have been Chapel
Hill students in there at the gas station by an a soda or something.
Uh Bill, what's up? Hey, good morning, Casey. I think
the problem here is we don't need less guns in school. We need more
guns in school. And like like everything else in life, the more prepared
you are, the better off you are. So I think we need some
legislation that says every principle and say thirty percent or so if the teachers need
to be trained to defense, and I understand that, but how does that
apply to this? What the incident I got. You can't expect the police.
The police are an afterthought. You know, you can call the police,
but brandishing, you know, whether it's a whether it's the clerk or
or you know, an elementary school shooting or whatever it is, or this,
if there's no if there's nobody around that's prepared to help defend something like
this, it's gonna be the same thing. It's gonna be an afterthought every
time. Well again, I understand that, but you know there's a lot
you know, most bagel shops are not technically and thanks for the culture.
You know, most bagel shops around or donut shops or whatever, they're not
on campus. They're off campus, right because it's you know, the vast
majority that you'll encounter during your time. If you want to go to a
bagel store, it's not gonna be on campus. But likely now it's not
a governmental issue. It's an issue with company policy if it's a big change
or the decisions that the individual employees or owners make. So and I can't
begrudge them, I can. I can say I you know, if it
were me is this is what I would want, This is what I would
do. But yeah, anyway, seven forty four k c O Day radio
program. I didn't want to turn that into a wider thing because the point
I wanted to make was the point that I made, and that is,
I'm reading about this dude doing the same thing less than a week and a
half ago, and he's already out doing it again. You think that guy
fears consequences, doesn't sound like it all right, Race Stagic from the weather
Channel. He's joining us, all right, man, I'm like we're we're
slowly moving into the good stuff. Yeah, we are tempts down a little
or close to where we were twenty four hours ago. The breath of the
coolest air, less human air is still coming in from the west and occurring
basically as we speak, as temperatures have dropped around the triad anywhere from two
to it looks like five degrees from twenty four hours ago. See some chempionsture
drops here from twenty four hours ago across the triangle two by about one to
three degrees. So the cooler as moving in, seeing some clouds at sunshine
today, comfortable as the admitted, he's gone away a load of bit eighties
tomorrow near eighty, loads in the fifties in the morning, and even cooler
as we had through Saturday morning, load of mid fifties with some forties further
west. You go, and we'll have a sunny day on Saturday and then
maybe some showers around on Sunday. All the action, Casey would lee is
out near the coast, into the Outer Banks coast to parts of north South
Carolina, there's coastal flood advisories and warnings. Seven to ten foot surf already
seen some ten foot breakers and saw you've got a water spout yesterday. I
saw a picture on one of the social media platforms. So water spouts are
possible, especially offshore, but kind of rough. For twenty four to maybe
thirty six hours, there'll be some flooding along the coast, especially those berries
normally prone to flooding. In the outer banks. Highway twelve, we'll probably
go under water. Not any type of historic event, but still a pretty
dangerous the rip current risk is high, all that good stuff. So stay
away from the water if you are heading out to the beaches, at least
for a couple of days. Okay, all right, So like, let's
if you were somebody who's like it was your birthday or whatever, and you
thought, maybe I'll go to the beach this weekend, you would say,
be careful, right, yeah, careful person, probably yes to that person,
be careful, slowly improving by probably Saturday, and especially as we get
into Sunday. So all right, yeah, I think it rus with each
passing day after tomorrow. Well okay, all right, cool, cool man,
that's all yeah, is that somebody somebody close to us? Here?
You know, somebody close to us. I don't want to be that guy.
Okay, but when you when you say close, do you mean like
could turn on the phone right now? So uncomfortable right now, I'm not
We don't want to make anybody. I don't want to make a seal everything.
Right. No, no, okay, he's wearing he's wearing a king's
robe and he has a scepter. So just listen, listen. The attention
makes me uncomfortable. I'm not one for self promotion. I'm like, no,
stop, yes, no, you retweeted the thing with the balloons.
I did that. Some people know I didn't want the attention. Apparently on
Twitter fits your birthday. It does blue stupid balloon stuff, which I hadn't
seen before. Maybe I've always done that, I don't know, but it
is weird trying to re engage on the X and you know, I don't
know if I'm doing a good job. But we'll see. Okay, oh,
yeah, there's the balloons. Yeah, he's ready there. What's going
on with that? That's pretty is that attention is completely unnecessary, right,
I'm gonna re twitter it or where they call it now is a tweet or
re. I just say tweet because I'm you know, I'm not aformist.
I'm gonna do it. Look now, my whole couple hundred followers and now'll
know about it. This is so horrible. Cross has gone viral. All
right, man, we'll talk in an hour when it will still be his
birthday. Thank you, yep, dude, for everything you've done for Olive
Garden. They should let you come like the moment that they should just let
you eat gorge yourself all day for free. If there was any justice is
what I'm saying, Which there is, and which is why I need to
vote hates for Sheriff. I don't feel like some of the stuff you promised
is what people would consider justice. Or listen, I'm just running for the
pension. Okay, okay, all right, we'll look at that. He's
honest. All right, seven forty nine, hang on, keeping you connected.
This is not a four five w PTI in the triad and one oh
six one FM talk in the triangle. All right, good morning everybody,
seven fifty three and uh boil boy, do we have a newsy of our
Florida Man series. So let's uh yep, get right into the back.
Florida Man, Florida Man. Is something in the water, the air or
sand that makes you do all that crazy crap. It's like the state is
one be done ass trap. Nowhere else has the Florida Man. It is
all almost like as the weird Factor climbs, you'll find out it happened in
Florida every time. Florida Man, Florida Man. If anyone can cheer me,
if you know you can, does mind life be crazy? But of
course, but it's not as bad crap crazy as yours. Nowhere else?
How are you gonna find him? They're so used to it they don't mind
him. Ready for Florida. Today, we'll be visiting the wonderful city of
Gainesville. Yes, yes, all you football Florida football fans, here we
go. So Florida Man. Jesse Smith accused by well law enforcement in Gainesville
of hot wiring and excavator and going on going on a little little rampage.
According to authorities, he wrote around Gainesville, went to a Walmart. In
fact, I'm not even doing it justice. He actually took the excavator and
ran into or over four buildings and the storage depot of Gainesville fences, two
utility polls, a loading dock, causing an estimated two million dollars in damage.
But he was just kicking it off because apparently as he's driving around,
running over publicly owned property, it dawned on him he needed something at Walmart.
So what did he do? He drove the excavator over to Walmart.
And you know, it can suck if it's busy, you can't get good
Parkin's hot in Gainesville, right, But he didn't worry about that. He
parked. He went over to the automotive department and parked in it. And
I don't mean near it or next to it. He drove the excavator through
the wall and parked in the automotive department. He then hopped out, hold
on, we're not done. We're not done, because you know, at
this point, maybe that wasn't the best place to park your excavator. I'm
not sure that bad boy's going to start after that, but he had other
plans because he had came prepared. He then jumped out of the now disabled
excavator and pulled out of whatever he had. Don't know if he had a
backpack with him or what a machete. So he I'm sorry, what a
machete. Machete just it's pronounced machete, just seeing if you're following along.
Well, whatever it was, he had one. So remember, this guy
has stolen an excavator, has destroyed four different buildings, sheds or whatever,
run into him, power polls, all sorts of stuff. Now has barreled
through the wall into the automotive department at Walmart, grabs his machete and then
starts running through the store, screaming at people and yelling. He's it is
literally what he's yelling to people. You know, he's just he's just yelling
anything and everything about how much he doesn't like Walmart, how he doesn't like
cops, how he has an excavator. Now, eventually police confront him.
He does drop the machete, but only because he then challenged the police to
hand to hand combat, right, you know why, because he brought a
knife to a gun fight. So he wanted to go. He wanted like,
hey, we're gonna do this, let's do it honorably. And they
they just they just taste him and reached It was just about to because I
hadn't heard the story. My question was gonna be like, did he did?
Did he didn't realize that he brought fist to a taser fight? Yeah,
that's that's unfortunately what happened. But yeah, it's very sad. Mark
lost machete, his new excavator, and now he's in jail. We watch,
you know, the patrol live and markings upset because like every time they
run into somebody or questioning or anybody, I'm like, taste him, they
need to be taste well, I taste him immediately. I have a feeling
that perhaps maybe you shouldn't be in charge of a taser. Would have taken
care of that woman up in the tree. Okay, see no, she
would have fallen out of the tree. Right, we mission accomplished. Okay,
Well, anyway, this guy's charged with all this stuff, right grand
the property, you name it, all the stuff, and he's he's actually
in custody, so right, and they actually keep him in They're gonna keep
him in custody down in Florida because you know, they actually like to apply
the law so he won't steal another excavator nine days from now. Amazing,
All right, good morning, everybody, welcome to it. It is our
number three here on the gc O Day radio program Slash rosper Table. By
the way, somebody's like, uh, well, technically the guy with the
stolen excavate or it didn't drive into because there's the bay doors for the automotive.
No no, no, no, no, sir, no, no,
no, no no. The way that he gained access was not through
where you would if you go to the Walmart automotive like where they do the
automotive work. When I say the automotive center, the automotive section, I
mean he drove into the section. He what he did is he drove it
was a big Kamatsu, one of the big big excavators. He drove it
up a loading ramp and got on that part on the back of the store.
He then used the boom arm to knock down the wall and then drove
it in. So here's the problem. If I could, for just a
moment in my lifetime, I don't think, and there's been some good efforts,
I don't think that anyone will ever unseat the top construction equipment stolen construction
equipment related rampage when killdozer exist, Do you know what I'm saying? Like
this guy made an effort but and it's obviously a bigger piece of equipment.
But when it comes to ranking maniacs with construction equipment going on rampages, I
don't. I don't. I haven't seen anyone come close to what killed those
or dude did in Colorado. Ross, would you agree? You? I
mean, you see, he just wanted to be left alone. What's that?
The killed those are? Dude? Push them too far? I mean
really, if you look back into it, they're like he had some serious
beefs and it it city officials were screwing with this dude, and it looked
like there was some shadiness with the zoning stuff that they did to him.
I watched the whole thing that being said. Some would say that he might
have overreacted, right, and some would say, shall not be infringed.
Okay, I don't think that's I don't think that's what they mean to kill
those. Okay, So the kill those are just for those of you know,
I mean, in all fairness, that's your opinion. I mean,
it was kind of an aar platform in the way that he customized did.
But I mean, I'm I'm slowly being drug over to your side. Man,
Well, hear me out like he he he took the bulldozer and he
welded, you know, he bulletproofed it to the extent that he did,
and he was like he couldn't see out of it. He had, but
he had a camera something he could see, and then there was a little
area where he could see. And then like he fortified the edges of the
tracks too in it so like they couldn't disable it. I think this dude
thought it out and then welded, you know, welded all this stuff on
there, right he did the A team be a baracous montage when they're like
doing stuff to the van, you know, and and they didn't they didn't
stop him. He stopped himself. He he made an unfortunate decision where there
was I think it was there was a basement or a half basement or whatever,
which really kind of screwed him over. And then obviously, you know,
now they're trying to get him out of there. They can't even do
anything. But he was all in, man, I'm not encouraging it.
I'm just money now that this guy just it seems like he was on drugs
and was like, hey, that's a nice excavator, which I don't know
that an excavator is probably the thing you want anyway. I mean, yeah,
you got the boom arm you can do some stuff with. But I
wouldn't say they're agile, not that a bulldozer is particularly agile, but it's
it's beefy man. I don't know, just a just a quick quicker.
We are not encouraging anyone to do anything like this, but they're fun to
drive. I've driven quiet, I've driven several different types of construction. Quote,
we had a greater that we partially on growing up, so I learned
to drive that quick and then we had our attractors or whatnot, and I
have I have run a one of those Kamatsu's when I was doing the directional
boring, but I wasn't like very good at it. There's some dudes that
can like make food with I don't even how to describe it. Like dudes
are spot on. I'm I'm gonna kill somebody, so you don't want me
to screw with this thing. But when you're just going willie nilly, uh,
you know, destruction of a Walmart and then some nearby city facilities,
maybe you don't have to be that good. But yeah, you will always
lose to kill dozer. That's just the that's just the reality of things.
All right. I'm gonna let you in on a video, but I want
to warn you now. People are like the tech No, okay, the
tank guy. The tank that's a different division. You're referring to the guy
who went to the National Guard depot where was it, Sandiago or wherever,
and took the tank and then went cruising around town. Yeah, that's a
different division entirely. And I think he got it. What did he do?
He got it high centered on like the center divider. No, no,
no, no construction. I think I think stealing a tank or whatever.
Acquiring a tank and building your own sort of tank is different, right,
yes, yes, two different, two different divisions. The effort is
completely different, right. You know you see these guys, You see these
guys who like have you know, like a highly customized car that they you
know, like they bought an old they bought an old Ford Mustang, right,
and then they spend you know, two years rebuilding it slowly or surely.
Or the guy who goes to the dealership. I don't get me wrong,
go to the dealership you want one, but you can you can tell
who put in the elbow grease, is what I'm saying. So yeah,
but anyway, I gotta I gotta do this because I have to warn people.
But you I want you to know what you're getting into. But it's
bonkers. So I posted this video yesterday afternoon evening. Remember what time on
the on the Twitter at Casey on the radio. It's Portland and it is
exactly what you think is going on at any given moment in Portland. And
it's in one short, sweet little video. But I'm gonna warn you.
At a distance, they're not right up on the guy, but you are
going to be kind of able to make out what's up. There is a
crazy naked dude. That dude is totally naked. I'm just seeing it now,
Okay, Oh you hadn't. You didn't. Okay, there's like if
you're driving by and passing right, you're not like, hey, is that
dude naked? You're like, WHOA, That dude is naked. That dude
is super naked. And he's just standing on the street corner downtown in front
of a burger joint, just hanging out. So in the video, which
Rossell's all right, we'll get Ross's opinion real quick, then I'll fell you
know what's going on. That just screams Portland, doesn't it? Yeah,
it really does, dude. Look how look how quick that naked dude is
though, like like he didn't even act stunned. So what happens is,
all right, so you got naked dude downtown Portland, stand in front of
a burger joint, just being Portland, right, And then you see all
the traffic round and then you see this dude on a bicycle, some moonbat
who gives zero craps about traffic laws or cars or any of that. He
looks like he's it's saying something to somebody. I don't even know what it
is. Maybe it's because maybe the homeless dude or the naked dude yelled at
him. It's it's hard to understand why he does this weird like turn around
in the intersection, like screwing over drivers, but he does, and all
of a sudden, from the direction he came from, he's he's now turned
around and he comes flying up the sidewalk and I don't know if he didn't
see naked dude or if he was intentionally trying to hit him. But it's
moonbat on a bike slams into crazy naked dude downtown Portland, and within a
moment, naked dude is brawl, is beating this guy he didn't like.
There wasn't there is not, There is not a moment from a pause.
It's just game on. This naked dude's been itching for a final day,
I guess because he's and then those two are just going at it, and
that's Portland. That's it. Like I The only thing that would have been
slightly more Portland is if the dude had some more Antifa ish garb on on
the bike, because you don't want to ruin the naked dude, right,
that's its own thing. So maybe if there's been a little Antifa lean on
it, some colored hair or something like that. But otherwise it's they should
put it in their tourism spots. Not because families will want to come.
They'll be like, oh my gosh, I'm not going there. But people
who like watching weird crap happen, they'd probably be all over that. Because
you never know what you're gonna see. You have no idea what is going
into appear before your eyes. Well, you have a pretty good idea that
because there's apparently there's a lot of naked dudes around. I was reading some
of the comments, but if you want to go see it again, it's
at a distance, but it is abundantly clear that dude's naked. I'm thinking
maybe I'm on team naked guy now because I'm getting reports coming in that did
you hear what he's what he yelled at before he attacked the guy? Well,
no, we shall not be infringed sto. Corey just sent me that.
Yeah, okay, so you said one person to you, who's a
problem, who's posing problems anyway? Like you'd be confused, right, Like
if you, for some reason you're like, I'm going to Portland today downtown,
which I would never do. But if I'm like walking around, like,
hey, I'm downtown Portland and I see a naked guy running towards me,
looks like a lunatic, and I'm like, whoa, and then he
opens his mouth and screams, shall not be infringed, I'd be like,
well, that's a good point, and then he'd be on top of you
and then it's over. Okay. But but here's the only thing with that
naked dude. I hate to say didn't. I don't say he wasn't bothering
anyone, because I'm sure people with eyes might have been bothered. But he
was just standing there. He you know, he's just he's not doing anything.
He's just standing there being naked as as you. By the way,
I can't even I don't even know if I could tell you this. There
was another I saw another picture a naked dude. So naked dude. He's
standing there, but he's busy, you know what I mean by that.
He's busy, busy guy, very distracted, very busy. And they were
saying that that dude he literally there's like a two block thing where he walks
up and down the two blocks all day doing that. So like there's a
bunch of naked dude known commodities in Portland. I have to admit, it's
been a very long time I've been to port I've been to downtown Portland,
but this was like I was in my I'm sure it's a different place.
Oh yeah, I can't even imagine. I can't even imagine. And they
like I remember going there and I was in my teens. I was in
my teens when I went downtown. I'd been to the area since then,
but I never went downtown since then, And I remember we went there and
it was they had like it was a little it was very kind. It
was really weird for a kid from Wyoming because we had went out there.
We had went out there as part of our church, a church group.
We did a trip out to Oregon, the Oregon coast and they had like
a camp or something. I was one of these big trips I remember doing,
and we went in. We were in Portland and like the like you
had the whole key Portland weird thing, kind of the Austin vibe to it,
but like they had they had like billboards or signs that had the effort
in it. And I just remember as I'm like, it just was so
strange and like the people were very colorful. Then you just weren't used to
seeing that. Wyoming I am. That probably seems like a normal downtown North
Carolina any city right now, you know what I'm saying, compared to what
Portland is now with crazy naked dude fighting moon back, no, you consider
every area has changed drastically, right, the culture since what your teen's like
the nineties. Yeah, now, magnifying that by like a thousand because it's
Portland. Yeah, I would have been I think I would have been.
I would have been fourteen or something, thirteen or fourteen, So ninety three,
ninety four in there. Oh dude, all right, so there you
go, eight twenty. That video is there. You might have to scroll
down check it out. Ignore the ignore the lower portion of the naked dude
if you can, but you might catch a glimpse. I'm just telling you,
but it is. It's crazy. And then go watch the big wedding
fight, the brawl with police. This is that's one of the craziest police
videos of them just having to deal with drunks that I've seen in a long
time. It's all there for you at Casey on the radio. All right,
we'll take a break, come back, and we got to talk about
relationships of congress women because there's two stories, and one from each side of
the aisle. They both they're a little tweaked and and frankly, I think
what they're doing with Lauren Bobert, I think it is about trying to cancel
a dude. I'll explain next hang on the show. After the show is
on the iHeart radio app search Casey o Day for the podcast on the iHeart
Radio app. All right A twenty five. Let me let me see if
I think fit both these in real quick. So we yesterday on the show,
we mentioned that to Lauren Bobert, the Colorado congresswoman. She was at
the Beetle Juice Musicool in Denver at the Buell Theater and apparently she got asked
to leave and they had a whole back and forth over it. I see
a lot of people trying to fill in the blanks on that who. I
don't know that I believe them, but she says she was she was thrown
out. She said she was thrown out for singing along. According to the
New York Post article, there was also security at the theater said that there
had been reports that she was vaping too and taking photos and they have no
photo policy. I don't know. I don't know what is I like because
I don't know, because I wouldn't put it past people to go, oh,
that's Lauren Bobert. Let's get her thrown out of here, because that's
just how we are now, right, you just this is why you.
They screamed at Huckabee Sanders who was just trying to eat some food at that
restaurant in Virginia. Because this is this is what this is what we were
told are the ways in which you convince your political opponent of how how right
you are by acting like a Banshee Adam or in this case, having her
thrown out. So I don't know, but back then, she she was
thrown out, she left, She did wag some fingers and apparently apparently pushed
back on some of the stuff they were saying. But she left, and
then people were like, Hm, who's that dude she's with? She she
had been married when she got elected, but she got a divorce and there
was another dude there. But the levels to which they decided to take it.
So now people have figured out who the guy is and they're writing these
they're writing these articles, and I'm telling you the way that they're structured,
the way that they're put together. This is about reporters try to shame this
dude and maybe even get him canceled because they point out that he's a Democrat.
He's a bar owner in the mountains. Yeah, he owns the Hoochcraft
Cocktail Bar at Aspen, and he's a Democrat and wait to hear some of
the language in the stupidity. Plus we have an AOC story that kind of
works with this, so hang loose. Both are coming up. Thank you.
Kse Is on ninety four five w PTI in the Triad and one oh
six one FM Talk in the Triangle. Alright, thirty five, welcome back.
I'm gonna finish the Bobert story AOC and then we may have a new
top five for dumbest questions I've ever heard asked in a news setting or in
a professional set, And that's saying something you could maybe argue that it goes
uh, well, we'll get to that to Bowbent, but we got the
audio. You don't want to miss this, all right. So I was
mentioning the Boberg story at day two. Then recourse reporters have to figure out
who's the dude she's with, and then they find out he's a bar owner.
She know she owned a bar two so I'm sure that that was at
least a point of conversation with them. And I really don't care who the
dude she's with, but I do care when I see where the whole thing
of the story is not. Hey, this is the guy, because he's
not asking to be famous. He's not. He's just trying to go to
a theater. He's not the elected official. He didn't do anything. But
then of course the reporter's got to figure this out. And then they find
out he's comes from a prominent Democratic family, and they go off the divorced
father of one scandalized his Democratic leaning family members by spending the evening with the
firebrand Republican. And then they start quoting anonymous I'm not making this. They
start quoting anonymous people who who know this guy or go to his establishment.
You know, I was very surprised. I always thought he was a cool
guy and a Democrat. I just know his parents would be horrified. Dude,
I get the vibe they want people to go in and screw with this
guy's business. I mean, whatever, whatever could make me think that?
No, I think I think the reports figure out who this dude was and
what he's a trader and he must he must pay, and he owns a
bar in Aspen and it is pretty moonbatty there. But that might it might
be the only thing that kind of saves him, because if he was just
in your standard, I mean, asking this guy a lot of hangers on,
but it's pretty It's not like Crested Butte or breck and Ridge or some
of the others where you have a you have a very very very large selection
of not super wealthy people who just kind of ski bumm it out there and
choose to live there. So we'll see, all right. So that's one.
AOC is the other one. She's embroiling a little controversy because on some
of her official filings, specifically her travel filings, she listed herself is married.
She currently has a fiance, but as far as anyone knew, she
wasn't married. But then on others she lists the guy is Riley Roberts,
as you know, fiance or not, And then on some she says it's
his spouse, and there's a big problem with that. You gotta be one
or the other for a couple of reasons. One, it changes how the
travel works. It is more advantageous when putting together your travel stuff from a
finance standpoint if they're your spouse. But it's also more intrusive if they're your
spouse when it comes to your financial reporting, because you have to now also
provide all of their financials right, because they don't want a situation where I'm
not the one who made all those insider trades. It was my wife,
right, So so her having it both ways and obviously seemingly the good way
for a spouse on the travel side because it's less money out of their pocket,
but on the financial side, not a spouse, so it's less intrusive
for them. Well, this is this is how you get a house ethics
issue. I don't know whether they're going to open a full hearing on this,
but I don't know how you confuse that because you you physically have to
say you. She wrote on it this is her spouse, but then didn't
didn't include any financials, so I look, I don't care whether she's married
or not. But that's a real easy ze no no to avoid. And
when you see the pattern of it, it's weird how it's only on the
travel side where she wrote spouse so she could save money, and then on
the other side now but those are all right, So those are the two,
So you try to do a little bipartisan thing. I'm sorry, I'm
just super excited. I want to get to this. I won't be able
to fit it in before we get to Ray, you know, in the
library. I was just going back. We have some really dumb questions that
are pretty famous ones, right that people reference. Who can forget Hank Johnson
talking to the military guys about his concerns with Guam. My fear is that
the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and and
cap size. We don't anticipate that. I mean, that's that never gets
old. Doesn't never gets old. And especially the look on that military guy's
face where he's like, I'm just gonna answer this. Please. Guys like,
wow, this guy doesn't know what islands are, all right, says
everyone. One that we like to play is also Don Lemon. Don Lemon
with the former transportation official lady and him doing the analysis of what happened to
Malaysian Airlines flight three seventy. What if it was hijacking or terrorism or mechanical
failure or pilot air but what if it was something fully that we don't really
understand a lot of people have been asking about that about black holes? Is
it preposters? You think Mary, Well, it is a black holes about
her. You know, a small black hole would suck in our entire universe,
so we know it's not that. Again, the power of her and
that general to keep a straight face. Chef's kiss. We don't have audio
of the Sheila Jackson Lee one that's one of my favorites, but we do
have reporting on it, and it was when she because she serves a district
in Houston, she went to the NASA facility in Houston and they had the
Mars rover buzzing around, and she asked if the rover was could go near
the flag because Moon and Mars. Yes, someone that Mark Watney put up
there. Okay, well no, I'm pretty sure she meant the Armstrong one.
He was to make a potatoes and putting up flags. This was well
before the Martian came out. So all right, so those are those are
a few top contenders, we would agree. So yesterday they captured that escape
spider man murder dude from Pennsylvania. All right, they caught him. They
caught him, and they were holding a press conference about two hours after Uh
what is the what is the sheriff's name here, or excuse me, the
officer's name. Yeah, Lieutenant Colonel George Bivens held a press conference to explain
how Cavalcante was taken into custody with no shots fired. And then they started
to talk to about the escape itself. You know what all the dude was
up to the theft of that firearm. And one of the reporters has a
question about the disguises, because if you saw the reporting, they were talking
about how he was trying to change his look and different things, and fired
a rather interesting question to the to the lieutenant colonel about how crafty this dude
may have gotten when it came to concealing his identity here it is there any
concern that he would team up with another small man to step inside the trench
code little rascal style. No, that is a reporter. That is in
fact, actually he is a local report. I thought I thought that had
to be a YouTube dude. But judging from the reporting here, they describe
him as a local let's say TV or radio or what and they just say
he's a low cool reporter. All right, So but you haven't there's a
little bit of context. Dude is really short, okay, the escape murder,
he's a short guy. And while I obviously there's I think a little
humor in the way that the dude's asking it. He's legit asking if like,
if you get two short dudes, could like they look like a tall
dude. And then this is a murder suspect that literally caused everyone to not
leave their house in a large spot the Pennsylvania for several days, and you're
asking about the trench coat meme from when babies or dogs want to move around
undetected. Dude, that's unbelievable. That's a real question. That's like a
real question. Like he wasn't being like stupid or like funny. That's I
have not seen anything where And I looked too. I saw this, and
I'm like, that's gotta be I just described as a local reporter. I
need to know who that guy is, all right now? Well and now
okay, So and I'm sitting there looking so one of the people, one
of them, is claiming that it is a local crime podcaster by the name
of Michael Rainey. But I don't see that that's confirmed. What if the
killer did right, What if he got into a trench coat, stood on
another guy's shoulders, whatever, and they snuck into an Irata movie? Can
you imagine this dude's been doing true crime prodcasts for too long and one it's
my goodness they did so. Oh now apparently actually after he asked the question,
he was pulled aside by one of the communications people and they did ask
him to leave, but he did protests saying he was asking a question.
So I don't know, take of it, dude. It's up there.
I'm just saying it's up there in the list of dumb questions. All right,
Race Agic from the Weather Channel. He's here. How you doing,
sir? Doing? All right? Yeah, well not our birthday, so
no, it's not allegedly it's somebody else's. But we don't want to start
spreading the rumors to make anybody uncomfortable. Actually, four people standing on top
of each other so they can be I will height to him to talk to
him. Yeah right, yeah, yeah, you'd have to be the least
that to get to my height. But headed to the coast and you're spending
like a late summer beach weekend. It should start approving by the weekend right
now. Multiple advisories for the I guess fringe impacts from LEE, but some
of them could be fairly nasty gale warnings. I see high surf advisories.
There's rip current statement for high rip currents, beach hazard statement, coastal flood
advisories, coastal flood warnings, right, and they extend from the beaches of
South Carolina and especially into North Carolina and the Outer Bank. So there'll be
some flooding, there'll be some beach erosion, rough seas, cuff, tough
couple of days. He meant to say, out at the beaches with a
high rip current risk seven to ten foot surf around the outer banks eight to
twelve feet, maybe near Cape Out looking near the Lighthouse shore and the National
Seashore there Shackleford Banks six to ten feet, same thing for a top sail
beach, so pretty rough out of the water, but actually closer into town.
Temperatures have dropped a couple of degrees now and we're gonna stay comfortable over
the next few days, and maybe it's the last of the real high heat
and humidity over the next seven days. It looks like it. We won't
get into all that now, but sun add some clouds today. The clouds
are the further west agoach or the try it in the mountains, so kind
of a mix loado mid eighties today fifties tonight, very pleasant Tomorrow morning,
maybe one of those first nice deep breaths of air you take in and enjoy,
maybe around eighty tomorrow and then on Saturday. Load of mid eighties and
a chance of shower Sunday, but it even looks like early next week,
pretty tranquil weather pattern, highs, load of mid eighties, upper fifties,
low sixties, and night lots of sunshine. You know, we got that
little rain chance for Sunday and maybe into Sunday night, but it's not going
to be a bunch. I think we're going on a pretty good role here,
Casey. Obviously to the east, the impacts from Lee, they'll go
away, but even there we should see some pretty nice weather after Lee passes.
Okay, all right, we'll chat tomorrow, sir. Have it go
one okay, okay, and Jeff Bellinger joins us. Next, hang on
this one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle and nears Talk five w
PTI and the Triad. Bloomberg update. Now, Jeff Bellinger, what's happening?
Okay? See, we have a fresh back of economic indicators from Washington.
Consumers were still spending last month. There was more inflation at the wholesale
level, and the job market remains strong. Retail sales were up six tenths
percent last month. The producer price index jumped by a bigger than expected seven
tenths percent in August, and the number of first time claims for unemployment benefits
ticked up to two hundred twenty thousand, still historically low. The president of
the United Auto Workers says the union and the big three automakers are still far
apart on several issues. The union's current contract expires at midnight tonight. Sean
Fayne says the UAW will not call a strike against the entire auto industry,
at least not right away. He is threatening, however, to call strikes
that selected gm Ford and Stellantis plants and the Casey. The MGM resort's reservation
stite is still offline. That company is struggling to recover from a cyber attack.
It's been learned that Caesar's Entertainment was attacked just weeks earlier, probably by
the same hackers, and sources are telling Bloomberg that Caesar's ended up paying tens
of millions of dollars to the criminals to get its files unlocked. Casey all
right, we gotta do what you gotta do. I guess we'll talk to
you tomorrow, sir. Okay, sounds good. Take care. All right,
there you go. Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg News. Did I read this
story in the Guardian right now? Okay? Because there's two. I also
had to look at the other one because I want to make sure I got
the numbers right. So this from the Guardian. You're ready, ross get
your bid you ever BS detector ready? Get you fire that bad boy up
for me? Yeah? No, it's always going okay, I never turned
it off. Well, then how do we just talk about the boone big
beer and then like, okay, that's not what it is. I think
you just answered your own question. Huh. Okay, all right, here's
the deadline. Environmental activists are being killed at a rate of one every other
day. Those are the twenty twenty two numbers, and if you do it
over the decade, it's it's roughly it averages about that. So uh,
in twenty twenty two, they say one hundred and seventy seven environmental protesters were
killed. All right, they didn't die of old age, they were they
were killed for protesting, and all told it's been seventeen hundred over the last
decade. M So what you think, Yeah, I'm gonna say no one
that one. Oh you don't think so? Huh. I have been racking
my brain trying to figure out. Now. Look, don't get me wrong.
There are incidents, especially when you get into parts parts of South America,
Mexico, but basically where you have clandestine drug stuff where environmental activists have
gone in there, and that's stupid. Okay, don't get me wrong.
Obviously, what they're doing out there with you know, with making the drugs
and the chemicals they use for refining cocaine and all that, it's not environmentally
friendly. That being said, hoofing it out to it so you can protest.
I don't know that's that and and that is a thing that happens,
but I did check it. They only claim that that accounts for one fifth,
one fifth of the number. So the rest of the fourth where is
the other ones happening? Because whenever I see one of these idiots, are
they is there? Something like a week later the glue kills them. I
seriously want to know. That's what I was saying, because we got tons
of stories about idiots gluing themselves at things. There being some you know,
I accidentally encased my leg and cement or whatever it was, but they're still
here with us. I had to. I racked my brain the only ones
I can think of. And again, the way that they pitched this is
they're being like, you know, people who hate the environment are coming up
murdering them. You have you have the dude who set himself on fire in
DC last year, right, he was an environmental activist. He was all
in. They counted, they counted Manuel Paya's arran in here. He was
one of the people who attack police and tried to murder police in Atlanta,
Okay. And then they had the chick who fell off the bridge, and
then the three who lived in a tunnel in the woods and the tunnel collapsed,
and I was I was me trying to find the numbers, and that's
what one, two, that's five, There's a lot more to go.
So and I don't buy it either,
