I gotta be honest. If I didn't know any better, I was just
no smoke. You know, dude who's mostly or woman who's mostly or non
non binary individual day who's mostly utilizes social media for the purpose of keeping up
with the Kardashians and clout chasing. Um, if I was just a random
scroller on Twitter, I would think that somebody murdered Michael Jackson on that New
York subway because I gotta tell you, Um, I've seen more videos of
that dude donning the red Michael Jackson motif, doing doing some iconic dances than
I've seen videos of him during any of the forty plus incidents, including the
thing that he currently had a warrant for in some cases violently assaulting people or
alleged to have done that. To be fair, as warrant is for an
open case, and um, what a choice for New Yorkers as protests gather
and I suspect it's going to be a doozy of a weekend. Have you
ever Ross, Have you ever written the subway up in New York? You
visited New York, obviously, but have you ever written the subway up?
I never have no, Okay, all right, I've written the subway in
New York. I would say a grand total of four times maybe when I'm
in New York, which is very often, uh it's it's primarily cabs.
But I've done the subway thing. And on half of those occasions there's been
some lunatic. Now, they weren't violent, right, they weren't violent.
And it's been years year. I mean, this is like, this is
before, this is pre COVID by several years. Last time I was on
a subway in New York, and um, I would say half of them,
there's been some person whom in you kept an eye on him because you
just didn't know, you know how you just I mean, we've all been
there. And it doesn't have to be somebody who is who's who's got some
mental health issue. Could just be somebody who's just a it's an angry individual,
could be somebody who's intoxicated right where you just get that vibe from somebody
because they're doing crazy crap, like yeah, I head on a swivel,
man, I don't know what this dude's gonna do. And um, that
is that's just that's I guess the deal. Now, as a new Yorker,
Like, your choice is did you see the video of that guy get
on and the the he's he's screaming, he's wearing like a pullover but nothing
else, and um, he's just he's just yelling at everybody. He sits
down and several of the subway goers get up to kind of moved to the
other side of the car, and the poor woman who's next to him,
he literally grabs her hair and holds onto it like he's you know, like
he's picking up a kitten or something, and you can see the pain on
her face and just and doesn't say anything. He just holds her in place
so she can't physically get up. And it's a whole subway car full of
people and they're just they're just sitting there watching this and her she is terrified.
It's quite obvious she's terrified of all of this going on. And eventually
he gets up starts screaming at people again, and and it's like, this
is this is what you've decided, especially in these bigger cities, from it
and for a law enforcement standpoint and from the way that you're going to deal
with this stuff, that people are going to have to be subjected to.
And I saw folks making arguments yesterday that well, if you live in New
York, you know this is how it goes. So you know, you're
somebody in Omaha looking at the video, they don't understand. Somebody's sitting there,
and uh, you know in Dune, North Carolina, they don't understand
because this is this is just New York. Man, It's the city that
never sleeps. It's interesting, folks, always something to do, good food.
You know, this is this is part of its charm. And I
think most of us look at it. You're like, this is insane.
And you don't have to go to New York to see these situations. There's
places you can go around the Triad and the Triangle where if you were sitting
in your house and you're like, I need to go see a crazy homeless
person. And when I say crazy, I don't even mean to be derogatory
about the reasons why they may be acting like that. You know, mental
health and an addiction are substantial contributors to too much of this behavior, but
sometimes just sure criminality is and I could I could, depending on the time
of the day, I wouldn't know where to go. How many of you
right now. If I said, at some point today I want you to
go watch a a crazy homeless person would know where to where to drive to.
I think I think most people you spend any time in any of the
reasonably sized cities, you know what's up, You know where those areas are.
And in New York it's it's the subway. And so I see these
arguments where they're like, well, look, you just don't understand. If
you live in New York, you're familiar with it. This is this is
just something that happens. So uh, going in there and you know,
throwing yourself into this situation, in this case, putting a guy in a
chokehold, Um, it's just it's just murder man, and that guy,
that guy's got a fry because he knew what was up. So you're so
your your choice is during your daily commute you could be violently assaulted, or
they have feces thrown on you or spit on if you're an Asian woman,
I don't know why so many videos are of these these crazy people on the
subway assaulting Asian women. Um, you can do that, or you can
have riots, pick your pick your poison. Man and Uh, the the
lionizing of this rather than just sitting back and going all right, well,
let's figure this out. Former marine. They keep saying that, um,
how many of you Marines were taught rear naked choke holds as part of your
training. I talked about one buddy, yesterday's marine. He said, that's
not something they taught. He he learned. He, however, learned it
because he went into law enforcement after and so he's he immediately actually looked at
that and he said, you know, the problem you run into is when
you are doing a hold like that, you have to hold against the side
of the neck and not the front. And I didn't know that. So
with that in mind, you know, we could have that conversation. I
mean, it's just it shows this larger failure on the part of law enforcement
law enforcement, or should say, not necessarily law enforcement, but the justice
system in New York. And maybe that's the conversation that needs to be a
part of this. But instead I'm Twitter, people are on there saying,
uh, just just posting bs. So like dah, he was just a
Michael Jackson impersonator, you know, like some guy thought, you know,
was sitting there and He's like, I don't like your rendition of you know,
man in the mirror and so and so they attacked him. Also,
what did they? What is this guy? This is a pastor up in
New York. This is literally what this dude put out there. Jesus is
a thirty year old black man writing the subway, hungry, thirsty, fed
up. When you think about it, I mean really think about it.
We all killed Jordan Neely. He died for us, he was us.
Nope, first of all, um, Ross, can you check my work.
I'm pretty sure Jesus walked. He was that it was his preferred mode
of transportation. Y oh wow, okay, look at that. So I'm
just ah. I mean, you can't get out of New York fast enough,
which is sad. Every time I visit in New York, I have
a great time. I'm usually up there for something fun. But still,
I mean, if that's your choice, you can. You can literally on
your commute to your to the job that you have to have to afford the
the you know, the sheer unaffordability of that city might be randomly violently attacked.
You can be pushed onto the tracks. Um see these videos of women
just standing there waiting to get on, and some guys just just boom launches
them onto the tracks, or you can have a bunch of riots, which
is what I suspect you're going to be seen coming up this weekend because it's
all getting gimmed up. And it speaks not just to this, but also
a story we had earlier in the week of this guy who's at that TJ
Max and you see these four twenty something year old women in there there,
they went through the store, they loaded up a bunch of bags in and
pay for a damn thing, and they're booking out and this dude standing there
and he just grabs one of them and he kind of grabs her and pins
her against the little scanner thing which checks for you know, shoplifting merchandise,
and put her to the ground. She's you know, she's yelling at why
are you doing this? And people want this guy locked up with the key
thrown away, going this is this is none of his business. If TJ
Max doesn't want to stop Baba, well one you'd be just as mad if
TJ Max was stopping him. But two, he is legally within his right,
according to the law, to make a citizen's arrest, and not just
for a felony, as people are erroneously saying, the felony part only comes
into play if he didn't witness the crime. He's witnessing that, And then
people are going on to social media with fake pictures of quotes from police who
don't exist, saying that the girl never stole anything, and it's simply a
race crime. Maybe it's just a dude who's had enough. And this is
why an actual functional judicial system is so important. When people feel that it's
lawless, they themselves will attempt to be the pendulum to bring about law and
order, and it generally doesn't end well, generally, does it. Once
you get into vigilante and I don't just mean rounding people up and these you
know, these these visions that people have of everything. You know, when
you've got this, it's basically emit till well, no, sometimes it's not.
Sometimes it's just people who are are sitting there and going, well,
the justice system isn't doing anything, so rather than put their faith or trust
in it to the extent that you can. Right, somebody's breaking into your
house. Police are probably minutes away. You've heard the saying, but then
people start doing this and it escalates because then if that happens, then people
decide that they can retad all and they can go out and they can do
a violent protest or burn something or docks this dude or find his family.
And and it's why you have to have this apparatus in the middle. You
have to have this equalizer. And even if you don't think it's equal all
the time, and I would agree with you in many instances, there are
many many even current day, whether it is the way that the Feds are
acting from a political standpoint, to police officers who are are ego driven,
right, you know, to the way in which people interact with those police
officers where everyone is just I didn't do nothing and is physically squabbling with the
cops. More and more often, if you don't have an apparatus that at
least semi functions and you don't put people are going to attempt to fill the
void. So this is where we find ourselves. And it's known, and
you know, some people would even say that it's it's part of a plan.
I'll leave that up to you, but it ain't good eight eight eight
nine three four seven eight seven four. We can we can definitely get into
that today anyway. Six twenty one, hang on one oh six one FM
Talk and ninety four five w PTI, two stations driving the best in talk.
This is case O Day and Carolina's Morning News. All right, eight
twenty six, you're on the case O Day radio program. It is Friday,
so of course coming up in the third hour, we'll chit chat with
pet Calendar as we do our radio buddy down there in Charlotte. I bet
he knows where to go to watch crazy homeless people. Betty knows, and
uh, you know, quite frankly, if we we want to we want
to actually have an adult discussion, and not just me and Pete. Me
and Pete can have one, but just people in general. Man. If
we want to be able to have an adult discussion about this, and part
of that discussion is maybe some of this, some of this stuff we're spending
crazy moneis on, like lesbian nun studies, how to make sure Chinese prostitutes
eat better, putting monkeys on cocaine? Looking do you wake Forest University?
If we if we feel that maybe that money's better spent both in housing criminals
but also deviating those who are dealing with mental health or addiction issues and perhaps
trying to find an alternative route. I don't like, how did we skip
over that? Because again, if once people feel that you're not going to
do anything, the people who are in charge of literally providing that stability,
they're going to do it themselves, and things are going to be messy,
messy, messy, whether it's the stuff on the subway or the TJ Max
dude, or guys running around who think their border patrol down there, this
is what it'll get you. But I don't know, perhaps that's just a
two on the nose assessment. All Right, so we got that, I'll
give you a rundown a few other things. Plus it's Fridays. It will
do stupid stuff as well, and we gotta get a new decade on the
calendar and celebrating ten years on the air. This is one oh six one
FM Talk in the Triangle and News Talk nine four five WPTI and the try
D. Yeah. I feel like you'd get frustrated during your first mistake and
it would go downhill from there. How many seasons are you in now?
We are on season four. We're halfway through season four. This, Yeah,
this is still the good stuff. I don't want to trash on it
at all. I've seen the whole thing. Um, there's you know,
you know how it is when you get later on and then of course,
uh, Michael Scott's you know, Steve Carroll left the show and the latter
part of the season, so what it is, But ross's watching. I
did well the first off, I did. I didn't. I didn't know
that it was all over the news. I had no idea. I swear
we probably talked about it on the radio. So spoiler alert anyway, Um,
but you're watching the office. Wow, I'm super pissed now, okay,
all right, m So anyway, Um, you're watching it from the
from the get go. You and the wife sitting down a way, she
had that she had not watched any of it. We both have not seen
it. Okay, So we've been watching two episodes a day for the past
few months, where like halfway through season four. It's a great show.
It's a fantastic show. It is, But I'm concerned about the which team
you're on. I love Dwight. I like Dwight up until the incident with
Angela. I don't want to spoil it for somebody, because I'm considering other
people. I think it's been enough. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna spoil
it. So there's an incident that happens between the two of them, and
I'm like, that would probably a bridge too far. But I don't think
he was trying to be a nice guy. You know, he's got a
different background from a beat farm. You know, he's around livestock, he's
different. So his reaction to me, that's me, what are you talking
about? He sort of does remind me of you. Yeah, hard worker,
dedicated, you know a lot of qualities in Dwight. I've seen you.
Not very good with social interactions, doesn't know how to pick up on
cues. I do it for a living, spoil stuff, doesn't care it
doesn't even think of being the hr one already then yeah, yeah, So
the first few seasons, one thing that surprised him me about the show,
and Marky felt the same way because the only thing we knew about the show
were the gifts and the memes, right, that's all we knew from about
it. And you know, so like the Michael Scott going you know,
no, no, no, no, and all this kind of stuff.
It's happening right right, right, So that's all we knew about the show,
and we know Steve Carrell. We thought he was going to be a
more lovable character the first season. That first season, he's a major a
hole. He's a major a hole. And it goes on. He gets
like more chilled out as the seasons go on, and Mark he's been listening
to a podcast with them, the girls that play Angela and Pam. Yeah,
the office ladies, And they say they realized after the first season that
they had to tone down Michael because there's a difference between they were they were
making them like record Richard Gervais in the British version, and there's a big
difference between a British audience and an American audience. And the writers were like,
Hey, if we don't chill Michael out, they're gonna hate this dude,
and they're not gonna like the show. And there's a major difference.
You can see he chills out because then that first season, I'm like,
dude, you're an a hole. Like we didn't realize it was gonna be
kind of dude. Yes, it's a great show. Yeah, it's perfect.
Such a he's such a good character. Fact, anytime you hear him
go, fact, he's so great. Yeah, all right, well that's
it's good man. I think again. I went on for a lot,
a lot of seasons, so it's like, I don't even know how many
seasons there are. It's like eleven or something really, And one thing that
we love we're talking about these yesterday is these are like actual seasons, like
twenty episodes per season, not like the new thing where it's like, oh,
it's a season, it's like six episodes, yeah, or they call
it a limited series now too. I hate that where it's like because especially
in the streaming platform, if it's streaming only, they'll say it's limited series.
But then so when you tell me it's a limited series, I assume
that it's basically a mini series, right, So, because the thing that
still irritates me so much about streaming is if you like a show and you
watch it, you're not waiting, like it doesn't get done in the spring
and is back in the fall. It's like two years before you get another
season. So you're sitting there and you're just like, and I guess it's
smart because a lot of people will then when the next season comes out,
they'll get prompted on their app to rewatch the first season. More views.
Yeah, Like there's a the name escapes me. There's one that it's been
like three years since they put a season out, and uh, it's on
Netflix and basically it's it's old old school China, right, you know,
the Age of Emperors and all that stuff. But it's a zombie flick.
It's really well done. And I just happened. I was on Netflix,
Yes, had happened to squeeze by it, and I saw that it was
in a recommendation again, even though I've watched the two seasons already, which
is only like six episodes per season, and I'm like, oh, I
guess that means the third ones getting here. I looked and it's from twenty
twenty, the second season. Yeah. British TV's even war like. Their
seasons are like two or three episode Like the Sherlock Show with Cumber Match whatever
his name is. Yeah, that was a great show, but it was
only like three or four episodes a season it was in. It was in
it was like two or three season, Like what's the point, you know,
begin of British By the way, I posted this yesterday. Somebody needs
to explain this to me. So I'm sitting there and I went, I
went to go get some some dinner last night. Didn't want to cook.
So I go over this like sports bar that I go to sometimes and they
get they have the Giant BLT right, and I'm like, you know what
I need. I need in my life. I need a giant BLT.
And so I go to get that and some French prize or whatever. And
I'm sitting there and they got you know, they got all the different games
on and the Red Sox games on, and so I glancing up at it.
They're playing the Blue Jays and you know, you know how they have
the the the the the ads that are right behind home plate, which is
I mean, that's expensive real estate right there. Because how much of the
camera shots, what percentage are on the batter and home plate. I would
say that's probably the number one shot in a baseball game by far. So
if you're buying those spots, that's you're a significant advertiser a lot of money.
And I posted a screenshot out of this on Twitter and on my Facebook
if you want to go look at it. So this is at Fenway Park
in Boston in America, and the two sponsors are Bigelow t and Draft Kings.
So you're in Boston at Fenway Park in America and your home games are
brought to you by Tea and Kings. I don't want to use I don't
want to throw the word trader around very much, but can you think of
something more poverty? Right there? Man? You're you're you're Boston and you're
just like, um, yeah, I'm gonna be spot Tea. Absolutely no,
we'd love for you to spend a bunch of money and put you know,
English Breakfast Tea as our main sponsor behind they do they realize they're getting
trolled. That's absolutely embarrassing, isn't it. I mean, good lord man,
I'd be like New York brought to you by al Qaeda or set.
You know what I'm saying. Just what are you doing? A baseball stupid
anyway? Hate it such a bad sport, all the changes of stuff.
It's awful, dude. What's going on? Hey? Listen what I'm happy
about? Because the Yankees are in the basement. They're awful. And I
told you that this is going to happen. He's Colmina my little site.
I told you this. Yeah, it's gonna be the year. It's gonna
be amazing year. Judges back right a gras and like, no, it's
gonna be awful. It could be the basement, and they're in the basement.
Some of y'all don't listen to me. Common No, right, I
got psychic powers. And you know how long have I been on the fire
boone into the Sun train? How long have I been begging this? Fair?
If there is a bipolar fan base, it's the Yankees completely completely.
But you know that what and I and I understand that if you're on Twitter,
you're like, you know, but it's like that in every sport,
right, we're fan base, but the Yankees especially where you're like, from
one minute to the next, it's like, this is our year. Number
twenty eight will raise the banner two fire boone in the Sun. But I've
been saying fire boone to the Sun consistently for you, now you have,
You've been pretty consisistent. Yeah, And now I'm seeing more and more people
in the fan, like very loyal people I know, like friends on Twitter
that supports the team, like that's their thing. They're like they are part
of Yankees Twitter. They do that. Their Twitter persona is just Yankees twenty
four seven, like they score the game, they do box scorers. And
I'm saying more and more of these people finally coming over to my secling.
You know, yeah, we need to get rid of an Aaron Boot.
You're in Boston and you're in your Pimp and Breakfast tea English tea. By
the way. Oh hold on, I'm sorry for I was gonna tell this
before the show. Um, one of the sales people reached out Ross.
Apparently you have two new endorsements, uh, bud Light and Children's gender Clinic.
You know I'm gonna pass on that? You sure? Yeah, I
just I don't feel like it's right for my brand. You know what I
mean? Right, But I'm going to pass on all of them. Very
busy. I appreciate the offer, but best of luck in your future.
Endeavor is going to pass on that. Don't feel like destroying my career.
Thanks. I won't. I won't say where it was, but one of
my radio buddies said that that does this talk radio said that, and I
do feel bad for the distributors. Man. No, Um, the way
that we're that's that's a license to print money for a lot of these guys.
If you can get the readership and and have that locked in in a
market and you got one of the biggies, you gotta be feeling pretty good,
man. But then that comes along and it's just it throws off all
of your business. And so one of the local distributors was was exploring maybe
getting some local radio and TV people to endorse, and I'm just like,
oh, how bad is that? If they're like, you know, it's
negative twenty six percent? Holy blank balls, quick, reach out to the
right wing talk station. Bad, That's how bad it is. Ah,
do you know? Do you know who? They I didn't realize this.
So they brought in to marketing consultants who are marketing consultants for the RNC.
They don't work for that. These guys formerly were crazy for the GOP and
they brought him in. They're they're so screwed. Man. We've talked about
this at nauseum, like you had to handle this, and you could have
handled it in a way that would have irritated probably everybody a little, and
instead now it is it's dug in speaking of Boston. As you've seen the
video, they have. They have video out in the concessions areat Fenway,
And I don't know if it is like this in every stadium, but Fenway's
like it is in Minneapolis of the Viking Stadium, where depending on which beer
you want, you have to get in a different line. So if you
want Miller or Bud or out there, it's lining Googles, which the other
big brand, you have to get into line. And so they pan and
the line, you know, the nacho food line that's got a hundred people
in it, The Miller lines got one hundred people in it. And then
they have the three lines for the Budweiser taps and the employees are just standing
around on their phones playing Bejeweled. So I understand that a lot of this
stuff's anecdotal when you see these people in the beer aisle, but when you
see it for yourself for the first time, you're not gonna the media is
not gonna be able to shovel their bs at you. How many of you
have gone to a grocery store or gone in a situation right now where you
see people or you're at a bar and you see people actively rejecting them.
Because it's become and who made this point. One of Shapiro's guys made this
point, and he's right. He said, once it's once a boycott's flipped
into meme hood, you're done. And so that's flipped into meme hood.
So people, even people who necessarily wouldn't have gone out of their way to
do it right because they're just not the boycott type. They're feeling social and
peer pressure around their buddies, and there's a there's a hipness factor to it,
and once that attaches, it's just it's just picking up steamrolling downhill.
And I don't know, I don't I don't know what they're going to do
because now the human rights campaigns on the one side and this thing, it's
an interesting watch. I'll say that I had to cut through the you know,
I remember covering alcoholic, like I haven't had a drink in like nearly
five years. But I was cutting through the beer aisle to get to the
Delhi aisle because the other aisle was full at Lows. So I'm cutting through
and I'm looking over because I like to look at the poison that he used
to throw it on my gullet. There's the there's the aisle words the cooler,
the open coolers, right, you had the beer, you know,
and both eye and that loads. It's crazy. It's like, you know,
walls and walls of it. So you're going through and it's crazy because
like the Miller light and like the England and stuff like that, like empty
and the bud light fully stocked. It was crazy. And I mean,
you had you would such an easy job. Your job was to sell beer
to a lot of people that are addicted to it, right, you know,
yeah, yeah, don't it's just don't screw that up. You know,
throw on some of American flags. There was some country music, some
Clydesdale's you don't have don't overthink it. And what a way to screw things
up. And once you lose that loyalty to people and you keep repeatedly doing
it, good luck getting it back. It's so hard, man, it
is. I told you that the best piece of advice I ever got from
one of the one of the big muckety muck radio guys is and he's right.
And it doesn't just it's not just for radio. It's in everything you
do. But the radio version is never violate the expectations of your audience.
Right, So and and you're seeing that you see that like with all like
Stephen Crowder, that whole insane thing. Right. Once people, once people
feel like you're you're inauthentic and or you are you think they're a joke,
that's that's when you get even if even if some of it's even subconscious,
this is that's where you get something that's so hard to overcome. It's it's
easier to work on people who've been loyal in the past, who are like
you know, sampling into the world of craft beer. Right, and the
big companies and the distributors have dealt with this by actually acquiring brands so that
their portfolio is bigger, so that they're not relying on one particular brand.
That's smart, but you also need to have your staple brand. Go how
you know, what's that's cool? You tried that pumpkin spice, but uh,
you know, hey, here's here's a great deal, or here's the
here's the frogs again or something like that. Man, but that's just them
cheating on you. This is something totally different. This is them. You
and them got in a fight and they hit you, and your reaction is
going to be, uh, what is it? Oh wow. Okay,
now people are sending me, people are seeing this stuff. The local my
local sheets has a sign on their door that says no delivery day due to
inventory for the budb Oh wow. Yeah. And again, I know,
I know some. I know one of the guys who want he doesn't own
the bud one, but he owns one of the distributors locally here and those
are crazy valuable. All right, six fifty one. That's what I feel
bad for. Two, But I mean it is you're so beholden to what
corporate's doing. This is what we're seeing, all right, six fifty two.
Quick break back in just a few minutes, your day smarter and celebrating
ten years of keeping you better informed. One oh six one f them Talk
and news Talk nine five WPTI more with Casey starts now. So yesterday,
the individual older a Bonsomrin Sotelo, who was arrested in the murder of Wake
County Sheriffs Deputy Ned Bird Back in August, who was then being held in
a regional lock up build either by the FEDS, which apparently I don't know,
I don't have locks of work, was apprehended. He had made his
way to Mexico, and there's a certain complexity did this. I'm gonna get
into the details of the story. I'm glad to see the Mexican and the
police round them up, although they're not big fans of people who are alleged
to have shot police. Probably, So we'll give you the details in just
a few So welcome back, everybody. It is the k COOD Radio program.
So yesterday an announcement as one of the two individuals arrested and charged in
the murder of Wake County Deputy Ned Bird was apprehended after escaping last week from
the a facility in the southern Virginia area that housed federal inmates but apparently didn't
have money for functioning locks. Uh was apprehended in Mexico. Authorities there in
the state of Guerrero, which is twenty four hundred miles from from the jail.
So he scooted down there in a giant hurry. Actually I said a
week, it was four and a half days. I remember. This facility
also didn't even notice he was gone for like a day, like twenty seven
hours. This is just bonkers. So he gets himself down to Mexico.
Um, obviously you remember the Red Mustang and the Sister connection and all of
that. So, um, you know, there's there's more people who are
who should be facing justice here. The problem is when you um when you
when you talk extradition from Mexico, Mexico as a policy, and the policy
is that they will not extradite one of their citizens if there is the possibility
of a death penalty. So that is a possibility. However, I'm going
to assume that it is no longer a possibility. So basically what they would
get is not now not that we've execute apparently anymore in North Carolina, even
though it is still the law, we have this this quasi moratorium on it.
But generally what has to happen is whoever the prosecutor is, and then
generally the governor in most states or in some cases they have a board that
handles this. There's a couple of states that do that. But basically,
you know, the people who are the final stop gap from a state perspective
or a federal perspective on execution, right the person who can make that call
at the last minute, I generally have to attest to the fact that they
will not seek the death penalty and then Mexico will do the extradition. I'm
not one hundred percent sure what went down here, but I and seeing anything
where it would be different. So that would be a question for somebody who's
actually allowed to ask questions of the governor. Did the governor's office have to
assert that they would not support death penalty? And did the Wait County District
attorney have to assert that? So but you know, nobody talks to us,
so I'm not able to ask either of them, which you know,
is that's an incentive. I guess if you're you're down on floor, if
you're down in Texas and you commit a murder, if you can just get
across the border, even if you get apprehended, it removes the ability,
if if people do want you back, of being executed. So there's a
certain incentive there which irritates me. The irony, of course, is as
Mexico obviously doesn't like the death penalty, and but they heads and coolers or
a thing. So but back in custody and he and his his brother,
sod his brother or his cousin. Who was the other guy? I think
it's his older brother, right, who was the other one arrested he's a
family member. I remember that. Yeah, here we go, older brother.
Yeah, our turo will you know, go forward and face their day
in court for ned Bird's murder. But we got to go through the extradition
process and all of that. Here is all right, here's a little roundup.
The next step will be to see him extradited back to the US to
face justice in adjution to the In addition to the murder charge in the depth
of Deputy Bird, he will now face federal charges linked to the escape that
could carry a penalty up to five years. I'm sure he doesn't give a
crap about that. Extradition could take time, though, according to District Attorney
Dewey Hudson, who spoke with w R. A. L. News,
who prosecuted the case of Caesar Loreene, who was accused of killing a pregnant
Marine comrade in December oh seven and burying her remains in a fire pit in
the backyard. Loreen fled to Mexico and was arrested four months later. According
to Hudson, the government there wouldn't even search or apprehend Loreen until I read
not to seek the death penalty. So there you go. Loreen eventually convicted
in August twenty ten of first degree murder in the depth of Lance Corporal Maria
Lauterbach and sends to life in prison. Hudson said it was a lengthy process
where basically they had to have a mini trial for Mexican authorities and the courts
there before the extradition would be allowed. So yeah, that irritates me so
nificantly, but that's the state of that good seas and custody. And I'd
be very interested to see some follow up too on this lock up facility there,
Like do you guys get some locks yet or or you know, do
you guys do headcounts? Now? I feel like maybe some things you got
to work on there now Tomorrow, Oh what an exciting day tomorrow. Ross
you are, m ross Is on Vaca next week. Yeah, I'm flying
out to the UK for the King's coronation. Well, uh, I wasn't
gonna ask you to fly, but actually, well you know, I am
fly. I'm taking a boat. Actually, well that's like, how would
you get there in time? One of those Miami by speedboats. Oh okay,
all right, silly me. Um no. But so you're on vacation
Monday through Friday, next week. Yes, so technically that means your vacation
starts Monday, starts at nine am. So here's what I need from you.
Nine am, nine am Monday, nine six answer the King for King
and country for the show again. So uh, the coordination tomorrow actually kicks
off at five am, UM, so it's only five to ten. So
it's only five hours. So you can watch the coronation of King Charles,
and we need you to do that. So and then, well, this
is perfect because I'm gonna be there. I don't believe you though. I
do not believe you're taking a Miami Vice speed one because it's out of the
country. And on why else would I be wearing this six soup from the
nineteen eighties. Look at this thing. I just thought maybe you had like
a thing later, I don't know. The five hour special coverage by ABC
kicks off at five am to ten am, and so you can check that
the coronation events at five thirty am. Charles and Camillo depart Buckingham, travel
to the abbey six am, blah blah blah, don't care, don't care,
don't care. And and then after the coronation they go to a concert
feature I'm not making this up, by the way, following the concert at
Core or following the coronation. Actually this will be Sunday special concert featuring Katie
Perry, Lionel ritchie Um, Andrea Boselli and others will be held on the
grounds of Windsor Castle. So hey, you're the King and h here's here's
a bunch of non British singers, so enjoy a bunch of celebrities. Good
stuff. Yeah, so if you could do that, maybe live tweeted.
I've been getting ready for I've been reading the facts, like when he when
he is uh sworn in as king, they actually they make him this is
a fact. You look it up. He has to wear the underwear of
his great great great great grandfather and before he goes up on the stage,
they actually put in a bunch of bees in the pants and this signifies his
dedication to the crown. So that I can't wait. So bees in not
answer the pants, bees in the pant bees. I don't know if they're
hornets. I don't know what they call him over there, but they put
him in the grandparents pants and he used to wear them. I don't know
what they call him, but I'm sure they have some whisp knickers. I
don't know, well knickers obviously, yes on the underwear, but I don't
know. Well, then you can tweet those fun facts from five to ten
tomorrow when you do, when you're duty man, that'll be great. Absolutely,
So yeah, that's the thing that's happening tomorrow. One day after the
Boston Red Sox promoted Kings and Tea behind home played at their home game.
So just you know, lets you know who the traders are, all right,
coming up on the show. Apparently Kamala Harris got herself another assignment and
I'm I'm sure she's gonna knock it out of the park on this Artificial Intelligence
Czar for all practical purposes. Oh yeah, way for this, we'll do
it next celebrating ten years of keeping you connected. This is ninety four five
WPTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle.
I've got like British people emailing him making up names for Underworth, so the
whole thing is sideways, all right. So what this this thing you made
up with King Charles? He wouldn't make up anything. It's been confirmed by
my good friend as Arkhan. I hope I'm saying that right. Last time
I said incorrectly said zur Kwan, and he correct me said I'm offended,
and now I can't remember how he fixes. It's it's our Khan. Anyway.
He's a great dude. Been listening for over ten years, he said.
He British, British he is. He's originally from the UK. He
lives here, Yes, and he's been listening forever. Great dude, he
says. We call them the venerable sting Skivvies, the venerable sting Skivvys.
So I knew. Now I'm asking them too. I want to know because
I believe they don't wash off the ancestral blood from the bees. They keep
it on there. It's it's like royal blood exactly. Yeah. So yeah,
the whole thing's a big fu, right because like all the gear they
use with the stone and I mean it's all stuff that like, yeah,
they went and they're just like, ah, we conquered the Scots and then
like we're gonna steal your rock and then you know, like a bunch of
the stuff is pa Like how does he do it in Gandhi's glasses? I
don't know. I don't know, but I do know that one of the
debates going on is whether he'll issue a formal apology to basically former conquered lands
of the British Empire and um, as you can imagine, there's some folks
like Piers Morgan and I think Gervais and a few others like, uh no,
don't do that in fact as that was an era, but arguably they
also the British went around and eradicated like piracy and slavery and a bunch of
other stuff and um and uh what was what was the one thing I saw?
I can't remember who said it, if it was Morgan or not,
but basically, because there's like twelve former uh you know, parts of the
British Empire, they're now their own countries where basically they said, you know,
there's also a reason why you're the you know, you're way better off
in your little area of the world, and it's because of us, which
was quite the fu So now they're more mad. But they have this debate
whether he should apologize for that. But you know, let's that's that's what
these cats do. Man come out and they think they have to do a
formal apology for stuff they were never alive for. So I don't know,
you know, I would say this though, if you were one of these
folks who were part of the British Empire, you just waited him out only
getting your your freedom from the empire or what in some cases in the nineteen
sixties and seventies. Uh, maybe you should have manned up like we did.
It's a great point. I mean when the queen passed, right,
she was being attacked for being a colonizer, and like you said about what
like the actions of the sixties, and I mean she was actually the opposite,
right, Like a lot of the de colonization happened under Queen Elizabeth.
Yeah, the vast, vast, vast majority were her was her u and
that was you know, that's that's part of the area. I will tell
you this though, as little as I do, Karen, I know we've
talked about a little bit. The thing that would make me all of a
sudden be super interested in everything royal related is if right before he's about to,
you know, get the crown, she like comes out of a side
door like ha ha, you'll never be king. Psych Like I would have
so much respect comes out. Is it like Stone Cold's music hitting when she
comes out? Is it like fanfare? Does she just sort of come out?
Or no, I want her to do that. Number one is the
Queen's music. Wait, so you also want somebody to you want the baggage
in there? Um? No, I want to. I want her to
do like do you ever just see the skit they did for the Olympics where
it's her and Daniel Craig, but it's obviously not her jumping out of a
plane And that's how she made her entrance at the Olympics. They did this
whole thing where they're up there and all of a sudden they're doing secret agent
stuff and then somebody, you know, a stunt double dressed as her and
Craig jump out of a plane and parachute in their parachutes are the or the
you know, the British flag and it's a whole thing. Yeah, do
that, and then yeah you can have the music and the bigod So hey,
give me something, give me something to want to watch. That's gonna
be it just saying. And I think the other thing is they're making one
of the kids. I think Harry has to sit a few rows back and
that some sort of huge slight. Yeah, I understand you're sitting closer right,
is that I'm in the orchestra pit. Oh you're in the family buy
look at you, man. That is awesome. I'm with the orchra.
No, no, I'm with the orchestra. There's not there's not an orchestra
that is right in front. It's like when you go to DPEK. Have
you know, have you never seen a picture of Westminster? Okay, well,
whatever, all right, we'll have fun with that making up facts and
stuff. All right, here's what I want to get into and U two
things. One the Kamala Harris Aar. We got audio and so I needed
a little time to play that. So well, well we'll get into that.
Also, I was talking about Annaheuser Bush, the CEO, has now
come out and he's figured out where why, you know, what he thinks
is going on? Who's to blame for what is obviously some pretty tough financial
stuff that they find themselves dealing with. So we will we'll get into those.
In Scientific America this I'm telling you the infiltration of universities and these standards
and employment boards. Crazy man. Hold on for that show. After the
show is on the iHeartRadio app. Searchs Casey O Day for the podcast on
the iHeartRadio app. Alright, seven thirty five. This video's bonkerspan the story.
Shocking video captured a passenger at it. This is Atlanta Airport, but
the woman's from Philadelphia. She tackles like NFL Terry Tate linebacker tackles the gate
agent. So she had went up to the gate. She had a question
about what's over their flight. I don't know what the situation was, if
it was delayed or whatever, but she's like she's hammered. She's hammered,
and she's really aggressive with this employee and a one and she's telling her,
I'm gonna beat your butts. A lot of obscenity in there all that,
and then just randomly she like runs at the agent around it and tackles the
agent to the ground and starts pummeling her because the agent after this woman had
got aggressive with her and threatened to beat her up so that she was not
going to allow her to board the plane because she's intoxicated and she's aggressive,
and then that set the woman off and the woman, the not the gate
agent, the woman who attacked. Who attacked her is six months pregnant,
so yeah uh. Eventually four onlookers were able to pull her away, and
she had she had a friend with her too, who was not wasn't pummeling
per se, but definitely was adding to it. So they're on the no
fly list. Plus again, she's drunk out of her mind and she's six
months pregnant screaming at a gate agent, So things are going well in her
life. The airports man, you're smart taking a boat ross airports are just
I know what's going on? All right, let me get into this,
Kamala Harris. Apparently is because I've voiced concerns, a lot of people have
voiced concerns, and when it comes to AI, you're going to see AI
being incorporated into so many things that it is incredibly important that we understand who's
programming this. And anyone who's seen any of the chat GPT stuff you realize
that that AI, the way that it was built and programmed, has a
huge intellectual bias. Right, say something, say something nice about Joe Biden,
and then they say something nice, say something nice about Donald Trump.
I can't do that. Tell us a Jesus joke. They tell a really
horrific Jesus joke about hockey. I'll let you look it up. If you
want tell a joke about Muhammed, I can't do that. And so when
you start taking that thing that is evolving and making decisions, and you start
incorporating it into certain aspects of like maybe you use AI to make decisions on
limited opportunities like college admissions or club memberships or things like that, the more
you incorporated into things, if it has a standing bias, right, if
it's woke, then it will operate in a woke manner, which is something
you kind of already deal with in a lot of areas. But when you
just turn it over to AI, think of all the horrible woke ideas that
emerge. I feel like you get faster to the you know, the story
of every sci fi movie where the AI goes. You know what, I
think humans are the virus because you know, you hear that expoused by some
of the people that are probably in the programming process. So now people like
Elon Musk and others are saying, you know, at the very least,
we need to keep an eye on this stuff. So the Biden administration has
responded, and they decided that the man, or in this case, the
woman for the job is none other than Vice President Kamala Harris, who,
if you remember, her first assignment was the border and that's going so well.
Now she's going to be doing the AI oversight. On Thursday, Harris
met with Microsoft, Google, and various other C suite executives, including a
couple artificial intelligence industry leaders, and we don't know fully what all she talked
about, but some of it was insane. Regardless, the Biden administration has
now pledged to open seven new AI research institutes that'll cost you about one hundred
forty mill taxpayer dollars to help ensure that AI quote doesn't get out of hand.
Adam Connor of the Center for American Progress tells AP, we're at a
moment that in the next couple of months, we'll we'll really determine whether or
not we lead on this or seed leadership to other parts of the world.
That's the other nightmare scenario. You want the AI that China is developing,
Probably not so who better to take the helm obviously, yes, Kamala Harris.
Let's see what Kamala Harris is up to. In between meetings with C
suite executive. Shall we all look at that? She's at a record store.
Really one of the greatest Deaths performers ever, one of my favorite albums
of all time, roy Air and Everybody Loves Sunshine. You know this one
so good? It's a classic. And then all right, she's got some
good selections. They're kind of running the gamut in terms of genres. While
the Vice President was happy to talk about her recent purchases, she ignored a
shouted question about the debt ceiling. And it's Mingus, not mngus. Yes,
it's a big fan of Charlie Mingus, see it. That's CNN.
Though, what do you expect? Then? They can't? They love her?
They absolutely love her. Oh, let me do this. I got
two other cot want to put them all together. I got two other cuts.
Let me do those when we like Yeah, bad, okay, all
right, all right, we'll do him now, we'll do him now,
we'll do it live. All right. Let's get into the reason for the
season. We're on the AI scree for us at every moment in time,
and certainly this one, to see the moment in time in which we exist
and are present and to be able to contextualize it, to understand where we
exist in the history and in the moment as it relates not only to the
past but the future. All right, So you just heard that cut.
Now I want to play a second cut and then I want to ask you
a question after I do. Okay, all right, so you you heard
that all about time and moments in time and all of that. Maybe you'd
actually heard that before. Check this out. Today is today, and yesterday
was today, Yesterday tomorrow will be today tomorrow. So live today, so
the future today will be as the past today as it is tomorrow. So
that's Ai Kamala Harris. I think it's hilarious. So yeah, they they,
you know, pumped into Ai some of her speeches and they said,
hey, creed a Kamala Harry's speech and that's what it came up with,
and which sounds incredibly similar to that other cut I played you. So do
you think that that person who is getting mocked via Ai and you already you
understand how thin the egos are on these cats over there? Wait to hear
this Canada story. I'm an update Jon. That's the person who's going to
be in charge of figuring out what's up with AI and H and marshaling the
process through from a government oversight standpoint. Good luck with that, man.
I am super excited to see where this goes. And wait for this Canada
story. I'll have that for you in just a moment. This is more
Twitter file stuff, race agic form the Weather Channel. He's here though.
Ah yes, sir, excided for the coronation tomorrow and am yeah, oh
yeah, hold on, let five, let me write this is good stuff.
Five. I said that alarm or can you spell that? Yeah?
I'll be right there. Oh goodness. I am excited about a few things,
but that's not one of them. Saco to Mayo today, right,
yes, yes, that that's that. Um, you got to Nashville.
You're already hitting the tequila. Yeah, you know, already hitting the bottle
already. You know how good? Look at you? That doesn't smell like
coffee. Hold one, anyway, not quite there yet. I will point
out I will raise my standard beef again. This is There are two holidays
in the US where people are like, I'm gonna go drink a bunch.
This is one of them. Saint Patrick's Day obviously is the other. And
the difference is when I see you weather guys with your graphics packages, like
the for St. Patrick's Day, they'll have like the drunk Leprechaun, right,
you just tell right hammered. Yeah, it's just so stereotypical. Yeah,
and yet, and yet not a single one of you has the stones
to have like a drunk miniature Pancho Villa somewhere standard. I have no idea.
I'm gonna have to talk to somebody in programming. I'll put that on
my list, but um, you know, the weather should be great for
that. Um one thing they are doing on the other side with graphics and
stuff like that. They did some stuff for May the Fourth Be with You
yesterday and oh no. It's kind of funny, you know, when you
could tell when people are trying to be Star Wars fans when they're not really
Star Wars fans. Ross are you calling Ross for? Yeah, I've always
sad I'm a bigger Star Trek fan and Star Wars, yes, but you're
not. It's not like you dislike Star I don't hate it. Oh,
I got well, yeah, I don't know if it would be like him
then, But you know, it's when trying to get in I did today,
you know, I don't know, Yeah, I kind of you expect
from a Cowboys fan and a drunk tequila free yeah, mellow, and there's
that. But yeah, it's just funny because you could tell that nobody on
the set yesterday was a real Star Wars fan and they had every and they're
trying to like and even when they get the nomenclature wrong, you know,
they say that, it's just kind of like, no, no, anyway,
We've discussed this before. There's a there's a nerd hierarchy right where Star
Wars is above the Star Trek nerds. Right, it's just how I and
I understand that I respected, yeah, and I accept my place. Yeah,
and and it is what it is. And now we're moving on and
um, you know what they're talking about is, you know rain that's coming
and the rain that's going to affect the southeast and el could have impacts for
um. You know, the big thing was Taylor Swift concert this weekend in
Nashville. I don't know, maybe some people from town areheaded that way.
There maybe some rain, especially tonights three nights, and it's an open stadium,
so there's that. But we're gonna have a beautiful day here. Tomorrow
is gonna be okay too. We're not to get some showers and thundershowers in
here, probably until Sunday. So mid seventy should do a little more cloud
by tomorrow, maybe even this afternoon, but Sunday we'll get warmer, and
then early next week we're warmer yet and we'll kind of be into this shower
thundershower thing each day. You know, you're gonna look on the app and
be like, oh, it's gonna rain today. Well, it's not gonna
be all day stuff. Probably gonna be more typical afternoon and evening showers scattered
around the area. And you know, the neighbor says, rain to your
house yesterday and you're like, no, well rained to mine. So that's
what we'll get into as we get into next week. But today tomorrow we
should be dry. As I said, maybe some showers and thundershowers on Sunday.
Okay, all right, thanks a lot, Sorry, Yeah, no
problems. The events forty eight coming up. Yeah, so the Twitter files
expanding north of the border and is not a good look. We'll share with
you the news about what Trudeau was up to when we get back hang on
celebrating ten years and still going strong. Thank you. Casey is on ninety
four five WPTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in the
Triangle. All right, good morning, seven fifty three case O Day Radio
program. Oh no, oh no, no, no, no, Ross,
I'm sending you a video while I lay out this Canada story, just
so you are can get this out to the masses. Sorry, hold on,
very important. Don't worry. It'll be worth it. The light possibly
worth it. I promise the subject line will be nope on the email.
All right, just sent that to you. All right, back to this.
So UM, this is um, this is this is even more aggressive
than any of the stuff I think you've seen in the US. So there's
a new report out on the Twitter files. And according to the documents,
the head of Trudeau's CBC, that's the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, prior obviously to
Musk being in there, um has sent a series had sent a series of
letters and I'm not going to read all of them, but basically the crux
of it is this. The documents show that the CBC, on behalf of
the Canadian government, was demanding that Twitter censor critical tweets in certain elements,
whether it's CBC, those critical of governments, the way that they handled the
coronavirus, the Trucker thing, basically any anything that was seen a derogatory and
the cbcs demanded the Twitter censor tweets, or Justin Trudeau, who has just
unilaterally brought laws into effect, would bring new laws and forced them to do
so if they wished to continue doing business in Canada. Yeah, so they
were black They were trying to blackmail Twitter. Now look Canada. I Canada's
population is less than the state of California too, so at some point a
little business decision. But yeah, this was remember one of the organizations that
got this was the one I, yes, I misremembered. This was the
one yesterday that where he wrote sixty nine percent of funding a government of affiliated
or something and they lost their crap. But when they're literally doing the bidding
on behalf of Trudeau's government saying that you need to censor basically anything that's critical
of us in these areas or will make laws so you can't do business here,
will make it very onerous for you. This is why it's important that
people get labeled for what they are and in this case a nearly seventy percent
funded government organization. But all of our critics need to be silenced. I'm
telling you, man, this is the level of scandal here in the willingness
to go ahead and do this and not like that should give you pause thinking
about that. I'm gonna use my government power too, because you sound you
sound furish, you know what I'm saying. You sound like chairman mao.
And like the fact that you don't realize that that's what you're deciding to do
and how that's going to come across maybe proves to me that power doesn't suit
you and it has corrupted and maybe you were corrupt coming in. But yeah,
so they're getting their own little version of it up there. All right,
So I sent you the video. Do you watched the video? Yes,
they did. Do you have any thought? I mean, it was
an effort the first woman to ever play NCAA Division One baseball yesterday throughout the
first pitch at Fenway Park, Boston. Games get a lot of discussion today.
I mean, it wasn't as bad as Fouci. No, admittedly it
wasn't as bad as Fauci. And there's a lot of pressure there, right,
you're sitting there, you're Fenway Park. It was just a bit out.
Say, okay, it was about what two or three plates off.
She was still in the batter's box. But I'm sorry. If you are
being recognized as the first person of a particular group, in this case women,
to play men's baseball, you gotta get it near the strike zone.
Can we agree on that? I remember, remember the chick who did like
the roll flip thing. I've ever seen that where it's like a forward flip
thing and then through the but that was a strike. That chick was a
gymnast or something, I can't remember. Whatever. Maybe she was a soccer
player, I can't remember. But you're being brought out you're the first woman
to play Division one men's baseball. And that wasn't even close. And it
was and in fact, it was so bad that the person who posted the
clip, Dorothy Sports Network, had to turn off all the comments and to
lete them all. Right, Pete Calendar next, hang on, Ah,
good morning everybody in his eight oh seven here on your Friday casey O Day
Radio program. We're glad to have you along. Big, big, big
weekend coming up. All sorts of fun events. Pete Calendar, a radio
buddy to the South WBT middays joining us. How you doing sir, Hey,
I'm doing it right. How are you? I'm good? You got
all your got all your British Royalty garbond getting ready for the big event tomorrow
or yeah, no, oh wow, okay, no, yeah, it's
this is one of the things, like, there are a few things that
I believe to be birthrights of being an American. Number one, we don't
need to know geography, that's part of our birthright. Number two, we
don't have to know anything about any other culture, especially their language. But
number three is a complete disinterest in the goings on of the monarchy in the
UK. I just I've never cared about it. Yeah, oh wow,
okay, all right, Well, I mean I figured if it was enough
for people to take up arms against the monarchy and to fight you to the
death to not have to give a flying fig Newton about any of them,
then it's the least I can do to honor their memories. I do.
I do enjoy, not necessarily the process, but all of the woke nonsense
surrounding it, where they want him to apologize to former territories. It's like
twelve or demanding an apology, and I'm just like, you know what,
to those twelve, I'd be like, you know, if you all would
have manned up sooner, I'm just saying, right, well, I'll strike
while the iron's hot. Right, You're not going to have any better leverage
than right now. All the world is watching except for me, but all
the rest of the world is watching, So why not, you know,
try to try to get some publicity right now? So yep, yep,
yep, that is that's tomorrow. We've got Kentucky Derby this weekend. Do
you at least care about that? Or no? I care about it for
like the ninety seconds or two minutes that they run it. That's all I
care about. I remember the first time I watched the Kentucky Derby and I
saw, oh, you know, Kentucky Derby starts at like I don't know,
you know, noon or one o'clock or something, and so I turn
on the TV and I'm like, oh, this is gonna be fun.
Yeah right, And it's like seven hours of of this pre game or pre
race coverage. And I remember, just like I started doing stuff around the
apartment I was cleaning and this was like, I don't know, this was
like twenty years ago. I'd never watched a Kentucky Derby before in my life
any at horse race like this, and I sit there, I start cleaning
the apartment, I'm doing all this other stuff, and finally what they run
the race and I almost missed it. I almost missed the start of it.
But I get in there and like, okay, here we go,
and then it was over. I didn't realize they were so short, and
so ever since then, I just I don't I don't care to devote you
know, you know, five to six hours to the to the pre race
coverage. A lot of times I'll just watched, you know, on YouTube.
Afterwards, I'll just watch the I'll just watch the race itself. Well,
I'm more of a passive washer. I will tell you this though,
and it's because I don't want to involve myself in it anymore. Um My,
but some friends of mine got married. Uh so I'm at there in
Asheville. Um oh yeah, it was this the one that I saw you
at when you came to town and you got assaulted by the whole bo Yeah
that was yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so
anyway, so that, um, but at the literally at the reception is
when the Kentucky Derby was going on, right, and so I got asked
to run the pool, right, Yeah, everybody puts in twenty dollars random
draw and I don't know if you remember what happened with the derby, but
they ran the derby. I ran the pool. I was. I was
happy to do that so that they could concentrate on you know, because they
just got married. They're meeting in greeting. But also you have gambling of
course, right, yeah, so that we awarded the winner. If you
remember, they d qed the winner, like yep, I remember. Weeks
later and now it's like the guy who got second place. I'm like,
nope, I'm not handling any of this crap A. You're not the commissioner.
This is in fantasy football league. No, you don't get to come
back to being claim winnings the gambling in the first place. Yeah, I
will, I will passively watch it. All right, let me let's get
to some more serious stuff. Just because you see somebody trying to kick in
the governor's door, I did, I did see that. Um, I'm
wondering did. Did the first lady put the bird to anybody in response to
that? That's what they did. Use of these people, though they did
at these people. I did see that as well. Yes to these people.
But she's all about looks. You know. She loves the bars and
the young people walking through the neighborhood just as much as everybody else. But
she knows when the bars closed. It's almost as if when you, you
know, create these types of businesses and uses that that it tends to attract
customers to those uses, and those uses then have impacts on other people in
the I know, in the surrounding area. These are I love these stories
where it's it's like the people who make the decisions thought that these decisions would
never touch them and so and then when they do, they're like shocked.
There was a there was a former Charlotte City elected official who after retirement had
and then retired and then got divorced, and I remember them telling me they
could not believe how high their property tax bill was because their husband had always
all right, her husband had always paid it. So when they got divorced,
now she's on a road and that she has the house and actually gets
the tax Bill, it's like, oh my gosh, look how high this
thing is, and like, yes, this is what we have been telling
you for, you know, the fifteen years you are on council. Oh
and just to be clear, it's not the Governor's executive mansion. Cooper and
his wife own a home, y'all to say, in one of the neighborhoods
directly adjacent to Glenwood South and Raleigh, which can get boisterous. I lived
on Glenwood South when I first when I first moved to North Carolina, and
it was sleepy compared to how crazy it gets now. So but yeah,
it was some some drunk dude I paid no criminal record, apparently didn't know
his house. It was thought it'd be funny to kick a door. I'm
not I'm not really understanding that those are some nice homes back there. But
is he not aware of the news stories about people getting shot by driving in
wrong driveways knocking on the wrong doors. Like that's well, I'll do like
alcohol in period the judgment or something. I'm well, I'm going somewhere with
this. And because we have this totality of things, this is a minor
thing, right, Nobody was hurt nobody's sound like anybody you know there was.
There wasn't some I hate the governor thing, although I'm sure Rio would
have loved it if there was. Oh yeah, but we have that.
You saw the video of the guy at the TJ Max in Texas where the
four girls are trying to run out shoplift and he grabs the one and I've
noted down. Oh okay, well, and now everyone's mad at him because
he's a grown man assaulted this girl. Uh they would say little girl,
but she's in her twenties and she's stealing um and he just grabbed her and
try to hold her and she ended up kind of squiggling through, but she
dropped what she was trying to steal. And people are like, this guy
needs to be arrested. People taking justice in their own hands. So then,
of course we have the Michael Jackson impersonator, which is always about him.
If you were a passive viewer of the Internet who was brutally murdered by
this former white supremacist marine or whatever they've got this guy built up to,
and you know, just because he was hungry and asking for food, which
is a garbage, garbage narrative, that's out there and it speaks, but
it speaks to a bigger issue. And some say it's by design, some
say it's just people with bad policy. But this is this is the predictable
inevitability of lawlessness. Or when the public decides that they do not feel that
the criminal justice system or the mental healthcare system for that matter, is doing
what it can to do this, people will start taking the law into their
own hands because they feel like they have no other option. And then,
of course it's that pendulum which swings where now, if you want to live
in New York, you've got to make the decision about potentially being assaulted on
the subway or riots burning your business down. Those are those are those are
your binary choices apparently. But this is the inevitability when when you have prosecutors
who want prosecute people being arrested forty sometimes nobody's doing anything. People are going
to start doing stuff. And then when they start doing stuff, it's going
to be messy because most people are not good at law enforcing right, right,
right, I mean law enforcement, you think about that, I mean
law enforcement is specifically trained right to deal with these situations, and they don't
get it. Right, So what chance does right? I mean, so
are you on the team this is by design and it's you know, rules
for radicals or is this just inept policies? They're leading us down this road
which I hate this. I hate this for law by citizens, and I
also hate this for people who may find themselves who may commit a crime but
be way overly punished for doing it because they're dealing with somebody who does not
you know, isn't taking it, isn't factoring in escalation of force and things
like that. M So, where are you well, I'd say a little
from column A and a little from column B. I think there are some
people that very much sort of a cloud piving kind of a strategy. Or
I've seen James Lindsay, you know, he of new discourses, but also
the guy who you know, did all of those hoax papers and got them
submitted and approved and published in journals and just made up you know, social
dog and stuff exactly exactly, yeah, or the yeah, the racist dogs
at the dog park because they wouldn't play with you know, certain colored dogs,
you know, And he just made up stuff and got them published and
he proved the corruption inside of the soft sciences. Right, So James Lindsay
New Discourses, and he calls this like he calls the drag Show, the
Rise of the drag Shows and stuff. He calls it drag Floyd. And
the subway incident where the guy gets put into the chokehold as he's accosting people
all over the place and attacking them. He's got a rap street a mile
long, and he gets subdued by a passenger and now that guy's in trouble
and everybody wants his head on a pike and he's called that's now being called
bum Floyd. The whole point here is that, like to your point about
is it a coordinated thing? Is it directed? There are forces, There
are people in organizations that use any incident like this in order to drive that
narrative. Yes, Now there are other people that are the useful idiots,
right, and that will just kind of they see the story, they see
the headlines. They're outraged because they don't do any further exploration of the details.
They don't need to, they don't care to, and so they just
kind of get swept up and believe that that that narrow is the truth when
it's not. I mean, it's it's hands up, don't shoot all over
again. So I think, yes, there are people that advance these narratives,
and then there are others that just unwittingly go along with it because they
don't have the time or inclination to pursue, you know, the facts.
Well, they're the ones in the combat section, like on the shoplifting one,
they're like, God, this guy, this he was not injured in
any way, and he you know, he shouldn't be able to do that.
Well, arguably, one, legally he can if you witness even in
even a misdemeanor, a citizen's arrest is something you can affect. It's only
only requires a felony if you didn't witness it, So he's legal there.
But more importantly, yeah, no, it does. It does impact,
but not in the way that you think, Yes, they were stealing TJ
Max's shirts, but he shops at TJ Max and there's going to be a
certain amount of money attached to the price to those shirts that's factored in based
on the level of theft that they deal with, and and and so it
impacts. And it also impacts areas like if you live in a neighborhood and
now all of a sudden, all a bunch of businesses like a CVS or
a Walmart or what was it uh Old Country, But no it was Cracker
Are I mean if you're talking about like San Francisco Portland areas, Yeah,
I mean I'm closing all these stores. So, I mean, these are
the real impacts on neighborhoods. They can't get economic development, they can't get
you have skin insolutely and so right, um, those are the useful idiots
right there. Ago is a person's life for dignity worth fifteen hundred dollars of
saporum makeup. Yes, the dignity definitely you're talking about, Yes, yeah,
yeah, absolutely. It is an acceptance. So it's an acceptance of
a certain level of criminality with the thought that it will never touch your doorstep.
Right. That's that's what a lot of this stuff comes from. I
believe there's a there's the virtue signaling component, right, this projection that I
am morally superior than the people that I disagree with politically, and I'm going
to exhibit this and display this because that's what gives me sort of a dopamine
hit in my brain that I know people are seeing me virtue signal, my
moral superiority, my ethics. But there's also this belief. It's the same
kind of thing at play when people are like we need a you know,
national divorce and civil war and all this stuff. There's this belief that it's
never going to touch your doorstep, that you won't be killed in this,
you know, in the fighting that ensues when people stop talking, because that's
what politics is, right, It's when people stop that. Politics is the
talking that we do in order to avoid the violence. And what's happening now
is you have people that are advancing these notions that any kind of punishment against
those who tear at the fabric of society, any kind of punishment is part
of the institutionalism of the day, whatever it might be, but usually it's
racism, right, this institutional oppression that so we can't punish. And what
happens then is the fabric erodes. People don't feel safe, and yes,
as you said, you have this escalation of vigilanteism. I mean, growing
up in New York, I can tell you, like everybody knew who Bernie
gets. What's I mean he made a Billy Joel song for crying out loud,
right, that he Bernie Gets was the personification of the lawlessness and rampant
crime in New York before may Or Juliani got in and did the broken windows
approach to policing, and people who remember New York in the you know,
seventies and eighties, it was a hell hole and it's nothing like it it
is now where it has been for the last you know, fifteen years or
so twenty years. Let me let me. I got two Oh crap,
I wanted to do two other stories, and I got Do you want me
to hang on? I can hang on. I'm gonna go. No,
I'm gonna go to the most important story. Okay, okay, do it.
Somebody dumped five hundred pounds of pasta in the woods of New Jersey and
nobody can figure out why. Yeah, I think what's going on? I
think I think it was the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Have you heard of the
flying spaghetti I have heard of the flying sea I have not heard that reference
in many, many, many years. So yes, postapharianism. Um.
I think maybe the monster. Either the monster deposited some portions of itself or
some waste product, or it might be the actual flying Spaghetti Monster. It
may have died and somebody may have taken it out. And honestly, if
it's if somebody is going to take out a deity, it probably would happen.
In New Jersey, five hundred pounds of spaghetti zdi macaroni dumped in a
stream near Veterans Park in Old Bridge, New Jersey. I have another theory.
I have muck bang TikToker. You've seen these people where they just gorged
themselves on food. No, well, at least they're not eating tide pods.
You want to you want a rabbit hole, man, go down there?
Yeah, yeah, but no, somebody done five hundred, five hundred
pounds of pasta in the woods and they're trying different kinds, yeah, right,
in different current. That's what's so weird. Yeah, Like why there's
like three different types of pasta that's all mixed in there? Like who does
something? Like it's all cooked and they cooked all this pasta. And I
have to assume there's a mob because I we only have to have fifteen seconds.
You get you get hit the mob in here and it's all crazy,
man, But have yourself a good weekend and you do it next week,
sir. All right, Thanks Casey. All right, there you go,
Pete calendar, WBT can let's do a v I Heeart radio app as well
if you so desire, we'll be back fifty ten years of years twice an
hour and Smart Talk all day, nine four five w PTI and the Triads
and one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle. All right, good
morning everybody, it is he's really sick here on the KO Day program.
We got a doozy set of stories for you. This is how many of
you out there have been to a Christian men's conference or women's conference. I
don't know what y'all do with the women's conference, but have you ever been
to a Christian men's conference? Um? Yeah, the variety of way,
A lot of times, a lot of them, especially out in like Wyoming
or whatnot. Basically, it's just a camping trip with fellowship and all of
that, uh Minnesota kind of the same thing. It was a fishing trip
with fellowship. It was. It was. It was basically all the stuff
that you want to go do with your boys and and and then you guys
would sit around and also have a religious component, which great, fine,
awesome, but they ain't screwing around a Missouri Rossa not I just showed Ross'
this video. He had not seen this video. U We'll retweeted out so
you can go watch it. First of all, Ross, does that look
like a Christian men's fellowship? But the event you'd be down with even though
you're not a people. Yes, I can't talk now I'm worshiping. I'm
saying, listen, man, this is competition. I think we need more
of this. If you're like Joel Olstein, you know what I mean,
like you're a notice, step it up? Yeah? Yeah, all right.
So if you haven't seen this, this is bonkers. The twenty twenty
three Stronger Men's Conference, which it's stated mission is to exist to empower and
motivate men to live out God's view of manhood and be the best husbands,
fathers, and leaders God has called them to be. All right, it
sounds like a noble goal. I'm sure that some SJW has a problem with
that. They're like toxic masculinity, man whatever. Alright, So, but
this is that on steroids. It features men like John Lindell, Levi Lusco,
Greg Rachelle, and Josh Holly, the Senator. He's at this thing.
So it is a crazy amount of events and entertainment to go on as
part of this. So as part of Friday Nights Entertainment, they had these
huge events. They had bull riding, strongman shows, motocross, dunk contests,
and cage fighting. However, they took it to a whole new level
this time around. In the arena where they were holding it, they have
like aerial acrobats and a giant wheel motorcycle shows, a fight scene with the
Black Panthers, some dude in a Black Panther costume, and then a guy
and this is this is up for debate because I haven't seen it confirm one
way or another. And then all of a sudden, it's like it's like
you went to a monster truck show. On the arena floor, guitars start
playing right and they look like the guitar guys that were on the front of
the Mad Max reboot. And so they're jamming out and they start blasting Kenny
Loggin's danger Zone, and all of a sudden, out of nowhere, a
tank, an actual tank comes busting out, driven by either Chuck Norris or
a very good look alike. While Danger Zone's playing the drive, the person
is firing uzies with blanks and then crushing cars in the tank. But again
I haven't seen whether they substantiated it is Chuck Dorris or not. I lost
it. When the tank rolls out, it's legit a tank. It's just
like it's not even a little tank. It's like, you know, that's
like fear of God tank right there, dude, busting uzies. Whoever's driving
the tank is mashing cars, danger zones blaring in the background. It's insane
and good for them, look good for them, get together, get all
that. I mean, it looks at a great time. I'm sure it
is. I'm sure it's great time, great fellows, a bunch of solid,
solid guys. Do you have this picture in your head right? Like,
hey, you come with me and everyone to men's Christian Fellowship. Do
you want to go? Anyway? You're sitting around the fire right Bibles and
everybody goes to This is like a monster truck showing steroids with the black panther,
a tank, Chuck Norris, uzi uzi's and explosions. Sign me up.
You can't enough, you know what I'm saying, Dude, How North
Carolina? We can do better than this, right, I mean, I'm
not gonna disrespect Missouri misery. How do you pronounce it? Misery? Missouri
Missouri? Thank you cordell Um. Yeah, but I dude, look at
what they're doing. How can we not get something like this in North Carolina?
We got the people got you know, we got access to tanks.
We trust me. Ross and I and uh one of our old bosses literally
sat down one time. We're like, you know what, we should get
a tank for a promotion. And then we're like, how hard would it
be to get a tank? And I want to say, Brian the Bad
Boardop had figured out how to get a tank within what like two hours.
They were going to transport it down from the Tank Museum in Virginia. Yeah,
and they they there was some sort of like regulation where like they couldn't
do it. Something something fell through. It was it was well, no,
it wasn't a regular it was cide would be a big cost because of
we would have to reinforce where we put. Yeah, but they wanted to
do the traditional stuff, something full of toys for Chris. That's what I
said, Let's do a tank. Our audience likes tanks, and we're like,
yes, that's a great idea. Well, this was about you.
You're the one who kept bringing up I just wanted the tank. Yes it
was. It was readily apparent, full disclosure, completely self centered. It's
for the kids. We can shoot it up for the children. But no,
at no point did I go all right, So if we get the
tank, how about one of us dresses up like Chuck Norris, we get
some oozies with a bunch of blanks, some pyrotechnics, and some old cars
and really do this thing. Because in Missouri, uh, they they they
really did this thing. Go out. The video's crazy. It's just like
a smattering of about four or five of the events that they have. It's
on Twitter at Casey on the radio. Go watch this. How we gotta
be able. We should be able to blow this thing out the water.
Absolutely, we got enough tanner right in this state to make this hap happened.
That's just in my buddy's house. Okay, some ATF guy listening,
Oh what's your buddy's name? I don't worry about it. Plus, you
saw me post over over the weekend. I posted that picture of get to
do something fun today? Ross. Did you see that with the with the
machine gun? Stuff that I posted did not Okay, what I was hinting
at is, um, I got to go shoot machine guns over the weekend,
and I just realized, remember the remember, um, what was the
was it Brewster's Millions where he had to spend like what thirty million dollars so
that he could have three hundred I don't know. It's a great movie,
yeah, and he couldn't have anything show for it. Go shoot machine guns
for just shoot them all day. You'll spend thirty million, I think real
quick. Oh, but there was a variety of and don't worry, this
individual holds the current proper everything that is necessary to hold these fabulous, fabulous
fun guns of Rambo. It was amazing. But yeah, I mean you're
you're broken, like five minutes doing when I first when we first took our
trip to Florida for the first time at Disney. Yeah, there's that road
it's like Celebration or whatever it is, boulevard. Oh the guy with the
au And I was shocked because, like, you know, you're so your
close proximity to Disney, all these family stuff, and there's a big sign.
I so wanted to do it, but I haven't been able to do
it. It's a big signs, just like shoot machine guns from a helicopter.
And I'm like, yes, you guys, have fun on it's a
small world. I'll be over here. Yeah, you go to Vegas too.
They have some amazing facilities just outside of Vegas where you can go shoot
crazy stuff. And I'm not gonna get into ind all of this stuff we
shot, but it was it was a lot of fun. This thing right
here though. Go look at it on the Twitter at k you see on
the radio under guys of Christian Men's Fellowship. So you're just like, I'm
going to a Christian Men's Fellowship meeting. Honey, Oh well that's great.
Do you have fun. Meanwhile, you're over there and it's you know,
NuGen on stage and Chuck Norris with Uzi's in a tank crushing cars. Come
on, you don't even You could be an atheist and you'd be having a
hell of a time there. And you know what, even if you were,
as long as you weren't obnoxious about it, these guys would all be
cool to you. That's the other side of this. Or you can do
what they'll do in New York, crushing cars and have a big protest this
weekend, So you got choices, all right? A forty five race stage
it for the Weather Channel. They in Missouri, they have this huge Christian
men's conference and it's in this arena and they have Chuck Norris in a tank
shooting Uzy blanks, crushing cars and jam and people on stage doing jamming out
to danger zone like Kenny Loggins. It's one of the most insane arena shows
I've ever seen. And it's andably some dudes probably in trouble because he told
his wife they were going to be in the woods talking about the New Testament
or something, and they were right. They have that competitive it. But
meanwhile they're also doing cage fighting and Chuck Norris's tank crushings. So as long
as they were talking about the other stuff and they were in the woods,
I mean, well they were in an arena. But now, oh well,
yeah, dude, was this amazing? Videos on Twitter at Casey on
the radio, go cook at it? All right, Weather, what do
we got for the weapon? Good day today? Probably a good one tomorrow.
Start to see a little high cloud from about Green's boat and just south
of Raleigh, heading down toward Fayetteville and Charlotte, and those clouds are coming
this way, so sun try to be filtered by some of the clouds.
Today. Load the mid seventies, in the fifties Tonight, still stay dry.
Tomorrow, tryead west end into the mountains. Maybe a couple of showers,
otherwise partly sunny. Even if we get rain, it's not going to
be a washout. Probably do the mid seventies again. I will get a
little better chance of a few showers, maybe even a thunderstorm as we get
it the Sunday in the afternoon, and we'll get warmer, close to eighty
and low made eighties early next week and it'll feel a little bit more like
early spring with some shower thunder showers around probably Monday, Tuesday, maybe even
into Wednesday, so you know, not all day rain. Typically it'll be
the afternoon stuff. But the pattern does look like it's going to turn towards
at least chances of some wet weather starting Sunday and through about Tuesday, maybe
Wednesday. All right, have a good weekend. Servile chap Monday, YEP,
and come back and talk to Jeff Bellinger next. Hang one S one
FM Talk w PTI, two stations driving the best in talk. This is
case O Day and Carolina's Morning News eight fifty three and you're Bloomberg Update now,
Jeff Bellinger, what's happening well, Good morning Casey, and happy Friday.
The economists underestimated again. They've done it every month thal for a year.
Job creation turned out to be much stronger than expected last month. The
Labor Department reports two hundred fifty three thousand workers were added to non farm payrolls
in April. The nation's unemployment rate ticked down a tenth of a percentage point
to three point four percent, and average hourly yearnings were up half a percent
from March. Investors are good with this news. The ADO futures are up
two hundred seventeen points now. Apple shares are up more than two percent pre
market. Apple sales declined in the latest quarter, but they still topped forecast.
Demand for iPhones rebounded. We have to mention Carvana shares. They're up
more than forty percent pre market. The auto retailer has been struggling with debt,
but Carvana predicts it will return to profitability in the current quarter because the
used car market is stabilizing. Could be a tough day for shares of Lift,
though the right hailing company stock is down pre market. Lift issued revenue
guidance for the current quarter that fell short Wall Street estimates. The company reported
a smaller than expected number of active riders on its platform, and Casey,
a lot of construction jobs may be in peril because of soaring interest rates.
Home builders are wrapping up progress on their order backlogs. The number of housing
projects waiting for completion has begun to fall. Housing, of course very interest
rates sensitive economists say this will test the theory that any downturn this year will
be mild because employers will be trying to hold on to their workers. We'll
see if that stands true. Casey, Jeff, you got all your Royal
gear fan stuff on ready for the big coronation tomorrow. That's right, I'll
change. I'll change the betting so I can sleep through it comfortably. Okay,
all right, yeah, five am? Start, No, thank you,
not on the Saturday for me. You got the Kentucky Derby though,
so you know that at least is later in the day. All right,
thank you, sir. Have a good weekend. We'll talk Monday. Sounds
good. Have a good weekend. Take care all right, there you go,
although there is a little hitch in the guidea up there on the coronation
front been saving this story so excited. So the venue the Royal Royal Crescent
of both so it just looks like country country castle kind of plays. Anyway,
they have this big lawn out front, right and this was this is
the venue that will be hosting a big coronation party, big major celebration following
the coronation, the big bash to honor the King, the new King,
Charles. Well, the lawn which is a big deal. Apparently somebody snuck
in and mowed a giant sports car into it. So if yeah, so
if you look down on the lawn you see a giant fallus. Now it's
tradition. It's the Royal Todger is no, it's not stopping by the way,
Todger really gonna use that word you've heard. We heard Prince Harry say
it once. Yeah, good lord. The Georgian themed Grand Coronation Party schedule
of the Royal Crest had to celebrate Charles ceremony in London's Westminster Abbey. I
don't know if it's tradition, but tradition has to start somewhere. So although
if probably if, but then if it turns into like the Pyramids and stuff,
do you have to keep going bigger and more grandiose, like so whenever
Charles kicks it and his kids in there, than what you gotta you gotta
mow a bigger fallus into the into the lawn. That's awful. By the
way, Speaking of awful, so we uh we did tweet out the UM
the most Amazing Men's Christian Fellowship get Together. I noticed somebody put it on
their personal account then retweeted on the show account. Oh really Yeah that's a
glitcher. So yeah, I'm just concerning to me and I'm gonna contact Elon
and wrote, can't talk now worshiping You're all on. You're on notice,
joel Osteen. But the where the story originated from is this, uh this
Twitter Twitter account which is in there, which is retweeted in there. But
if you click on that one and read the comments, like people are just
the worst, they're just I mean, there's some people that are positive because
Chuck Dorris in a tank with pyrotechnics crushing cars while danger Zone Blairs is UM
is undeniably awesome, but they're like Oh, they're all secretly gay. This
is what they use the church's money for, instead of helping people, just
the most hateful crap that you would expect. They're on Twitter and it's like,
what do you care if they get together. You all can get together
and go, uh, you know, try to lobby people over at the
San Francisco Board of Commissioners meeting. That's a speaker to podium. Imagine we'll
do that on Monday. Bet on that
