WEBVTT

1
00:00:22.120 --> 00:00:25.640
All right, good morning. As
I throw my phone for some reason,

2
00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:30.280
that was good. Don't need that. Actually that may be a blessing in

3
00:00:30.359 --> 00:00:37.079
disguise. I can't see. If
they fell to broke, then nobody can

4
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:41.880
bug me. Ah no it's not
broken. Boo, all right, whatever,

5
00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:49.280
Good morning everybody. Uh seven seven, you know, seven, it's

6
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:52.039
not you know, it's an odd
number, but still it's a nice round

7
00:00:52.119 --> 00:00:55.159
number in the grand scheme of things. If you're somebody who's a little OCD.

8
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:58.560
I mean, it's not the number
of days in a work week,

9
00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:00.880
but it is the number of days
in a total week, so you can

10
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:08.079
comprehend it. Ross, seven more
shows, seven more shows, twenty one

11
00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:12.400
hours of broadcasting and really not even
that because you know, commercials, we'll

12
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:19.879
get some guests, things like that. It's my mental advent calendar. Ross

13
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:23.480
has an actual one and it's the
size of a wall. So but yeah,

14
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:30.400
so your daily reminder that after next
week we have some stuff to do.

15
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:36.319
Ross is fighting communism or whatever.
His although you were fighting communism during

16
00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:40.280
Thanksgiving. I got your email bounce
back. At the moment, I'm fighting

17
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:44.840
technical issues in the studio. So
see he is, he's fighting a he's

18
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:49.400
fighting wars on multiple fronts. Ross
is literally what we were during the Greatest

19
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:56.079
Generation. So there's you know,
just keep that in mind. So that's

20
00:01:56.359 --> 00:02:00.159
yeah, that's the thing that's happening. Okay, And I know it will

21
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:05.920
not matter how many times I say
it, but I will do what I

22
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:14.840
need to do. Okay, little
connections with what happened in Las Vegas yesterday,

23
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:22.159
we're gonna have to get into that
one Virginia connection and two North Carolina

24
00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:28.479
connections. And I am wondering if
somebody knew this dude, I'm not going

25
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:30.840
to get into his name. I
could have thought about this. It might

26
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:37.639
be easier. You just I will
say it once as we do the story,

27
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:39.960
and then after that, you know
how we roll here. I feel

28
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:44.560
like you do have to say it
once, especially when you're talking about things

29
00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:52.039
locally, but then after that,
no mus Okay, So we got that.

30
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:58.919
We got Disney News, although it's
a little different. It's a little

31
00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:04.080
different, and you know, because
really Disney and enters into the show in

32
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:10.639
several key ways. There's all the
woke garbage, there's the very political side

33
00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:15.879
of things having to do with how
you know, with the with the really

34
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:21.319
sweet agreement that they had there in
Florida to essentially rule themselves, which would

35
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:28.639
be amazing and but probably not ideal. And frankly, I have to think

36
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:36.159
that most smash capitalism moon bats would
have a huge problem with a megacorp being

37
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:39.759
autonomous and not in the way that
they claim that they are right, which

38
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:43.680
they're kind of right. I mean, when you're when you're one of the

39
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:46.800
biggest companies in the world, you
do got some flex but but actually having

40
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:53.159
it down on paper I always thought
that was odd. But that goes back

41
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:57.439
to the woke stuff. And then
there's the movie offerings, which obviously there's

42
00:03:57.479 --> 00:04:00.479
been a lot of discussion about over
the last I don't know entirety of this

43
00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:05.120
show. In fact, Stephen Kent, who we chatted with last week,

44
00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:14.360
he he's gonna join us. I
thought that was a really good conversation,

45
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:17.360
and lord knows, there's enough of
this stuff. And he's got a piece

46
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:20.759
out called The Right what the Right
needs to figure out or the Right needs

47
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:27.279
to figure out what it really wants
from Disney, and I thought those were

48
00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:31.079
And then there's just the very entertainment
focus but not woke stuff that we do

49
00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:39.920
with Disney or Crazy Park, stories
like, hey, everybody, stop using

50
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:43.040
the bathroom like you're on the streets
of San Francisco because you don't want to

51
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:46.519
get out of a line. And
I thought we had really tapped all the

52
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:53.079
Disney I was wrong. I saw
this story yesterday, and I gotta tell

53
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:59.959
you, I was I I don't
I don't generally openly laugh when I'm just

54
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:03.279
by myself because you look like a
crazy person. I guess if somebody's watching

55
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:06.079
from a distance, but you know, it's like you'rean you're getting chased by

56
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:09.920
a bee, but one hundred ft
one hundred feet from somebody else, so

57
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:13.439
they just think you're crazy. But
I saw this story and I just started

58
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:17.120
dying laughing the deeper down. I
got not Stephen Kent's story He'll join us

59
00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:29.600
to day do five, but this
story. Disney has announced plans to open

60
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:39.399
a new residential community. Oh yeah, all right, tell me more.

61
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:46.040
Now, Disney is not. Disney
is not It's not their first rodeo on

62
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:49.399
this front. You know a lot
of I think the one most people are

63
00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:56.600
aware of is and I'm not even
sure when they tried to officially. I

64
00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:00.600
watched a little documentary, but it's
been a while but you know what is

65
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:04.959
it celebration right, Celebration in Florida's
I guess technically the name there. But

66
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:11.959
you know, Disney sought to create
their own I don't want to call it

67
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:15.959
utopian because this goes back to like
when Disney was still alive man, and

68
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:19.319
he just he realized, Hey,
we got all this real estate around us.

69
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:28.439
Let's let's let's build neighborhoods in a
community. But that is, you

70
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:30.920
know, has Disney branded on it, right, the happiest place on Earth

71
00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:33.600
and the happiest place to live.
I can't remember what the slogan was,

72
00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:40.319
and they had they didn't achieve what
they wanted to achieve because I think even

73
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:45.319
then it was just a little too
grandiose. And you gotta really love,

74
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:57.720
really love Mickey to want to live
within spinning distance of the park because I

75
00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:00.920
don't know if you know this,
it's really not easy to get around places

76
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:09.160
like at all. I have a
friend who a radio friend. She bought

77
00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:15.759
a place across the lake from Disney. There's there's a little community there and

78
00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:19.040
she's right on the lake and she
wanted that and it's and every night on

79
00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:23.920
her back porch she literally can watch
the fireworks do their thing whenever they're doing

80
00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:28.360
that, but just getting in and
out of there is a nightmare. I

81
00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:31.480
remember right after she first bought it, I was driving to Tampa and I

82
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:34.240
told her, Hey, when I'm
going through Orlando, yeah for sure,

83
00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:40.680
I'll check out the new house.
And I'm like, oh this is And

84
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:44.079
I get off the egsit and it's
like it took forever to get over there.

85
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:46.040
And so look, they had some
things that they ran into. However,

86
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:50.680
what you don't know is Disney is
still in the community development business,

87
00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:56.720
and lo and behold, I see
this story yesterday where they have announced a

88
00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:03.120
they're planning a new residential community Chatham
County. Now, for those of you

89
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:07.360
in the Triad and maybe a lot
of you in the Triangle, I don't

90
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:11.720
know if you're fully up on everything
that's been going on over these giant swaths

91
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:20.600
of land that sit basically between you
know, Apex and Apex and Kerry and

92
00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:26.680
the town of Pittsburgh. Right,
there's a lot they have talked about huge,

93
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:31.080
huge. I mean there was one
development that I remember them describing where

94
00:08:31.080 --> 00:08:35.519
they were just going to do it
all, and it literally was they're gonna

95
00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:39.799
build more houses than currently exist in
Pittsburgh, and as you can imagine,

96
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:43.639
there are a lot of residents they're
a little concerned because, you know,

97
00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:48.639
not my backyard, right, But
regardless, Disney wants to take this on

98
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:58.039
and build their own villages kind of
thing. Described as a fifteen hundred acre

99
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:05.000
community include four thousand single family multifamily
homes. It says the housing is aimed

100
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.240
at people aged fifty five and older. Ross and I were talking off there

101
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:11.799
about this because he was said,
why does it say Some say it's four

102
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:16.639
fifty five and older and some says
it would focus on For what I've seen

103
00:09:16.679 --> 00:09:22.120
with the fifty five older communities and
not just with Disney, is depending on

104
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:28.600
where you are, you can't just
limit it to fifty five because of the

105
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:33.440
way that we develop now and carve
outs that generally are part of the agreements

106
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:37.320
for these large things that include affordable
housing. And then if you're doing affordable

107
00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:41.279
housing, you see where I'm going
with this. You can't limit it just

108
00:09:41.320 --> 00:09:45.039
to fifty five plus in a lot
of states. I have to admit I

109
00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:48.360
don't know exactly how it works in
North Carolina, but I do have a

110
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:50.840
pretty good understanding how it works in
Florida and how it worked in Minnesota,

111
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:56.720
because I've covered the complete development of
a huge fifty five plus community that was

112
00:09:56.840 --> 00:10:00.000
very controversial up there, and they
had to carve out. So the way

113
00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:03.120
is you had all the the you
know, really the houses you're trying to

114
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:07.080
sell, and then you may have
you may have a neighborhood that has a

115
00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:11.679
percentage allotment that will coincide with what's
affordable housing, so you know, it'll

116
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:16.159
be like town homes on the edge
of the main place. In fact,

117
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:18.200
if you go to the villages,
they I believe they have carve out,

118
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:26.679
but it's not inside the gate.
But if you know anything about the villages,

119
00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:33.440
they like the party yep, yep, yep, big fans of the

120
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:43.039
party, and some interesting stories,
numbers and news has has spilled out over

121
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:46.159
the years. That was just crazy. I think one of the more recent

122
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:52.679
big villages won is this this couple
that was essentially breaking bad right. They'd

123
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:54.559
moved to the villages to retire or
whatever, and then they're like, hey,

124
00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:58.840
you know what, they have all
of these weird swinger parties around here.

125
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:03.320
How about we be the drug supplier
for those? And so they literally

126
00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:09.080
just busted some retire. I can'tmeber
what he did, but some dude who

127
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:11.720
saw I guess Walter White, and
went, hey, let me do this,

128
00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:16.720
so they had that. Then they
have, of course the STI stuff,

129
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:20.960
which is that joke right where if
you look at zip codes with percentage

130
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:28.519
of the population dealing with some sort
of sexually transmitted infection, unfortunately the village

131
00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:33.840
is outpaced their neighbors. We'll just
say that that's polite. So it creates

132
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:39.399
this scenario of these fifty five plus
communities where it's just a bunch of folks

133
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:43.720
who were, you know, retired
or semi retired, who have a lot

134
00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:48.600
of time on their hands and open
marriages or so. I don't know,

135
00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:56.080
man, but I do know that
because the name of this is well,

136
00:11:56.080 --> 00:11:58.480
i'm gonna tell it to you in
a second, is so on the nose.

137
00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:07.799
That's why I was laughing. Are
you ready? The community? The

138
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.720
community would be known as and I
want to make sure I'm pronouncing this correctly.

139
00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:16.840
It's spelled as t r I A. That's asked Terriot, right.

140
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:22.840
I mean, I'm not. I'm
not an English professor, but I do

141
00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:28.000
use English every day at work because
you know radio that's that's asked Terria.

142
00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:35.039
That's amazing, that's like, just
let everybody know what's up, Disney.

143
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:37.960
I appreciate that. I have a
question. Is it a little too on

144
00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:41.279
the nose though? And really because
it has a quasi knotty word? Is

145
00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:48.240
that the like? What about swingers
Borough? Is that way? Hold on,

146
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:52.799
let me make sure that's not taken
as I willed that one town into

147
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:56.679
existence in Virginia if you were a
month ago or so. All right,

148
00:12:56.759 --> 00:13:03.120
hold on, I'll look this up. Because Ross is banging equipment with two

149
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:09.960
giant hammers. It looks like he's
forging a broadsword. All right, swingers

150
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:16.759
Burrow, would it be b O
r O like Greensboro? Or do we

151
00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:18.559
go with the borough with the g
H nine. Let's just go with b

152
00:13:18.679 --> 00:13:24.919
O r O? All right?
Is there a swingers Borough? No,

153
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:28.679
there's not, so you guys can
use that. Okay, just let everyone

154
00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:33.320
know what's up. But you know, with with just a slightly more polite

155
00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:37.799
pronunciation. Oh that's a good point. Swansboro probably be upset. Well,

156
00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:41.240
geographically they're not the same, so
I think. And yes, there is

157
00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:48.360
a Pittsburgh there obviously, but not
a swingers Borough. Or you go to

158
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:54.799
Swingers Ferry. We'll play on Sneetz
Ferry or something. I don't know,

159
00:13:54.879 --> 00:14:01.399
man, But yeah, So the
Disney community in the beginning stages, and

160
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:11.320
I don't know exactly what you get
and what you get in the you know,

161
00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:15.799
in a Disney if you live in
celebration, are there things that you

162
00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:16.840
get? I don't know, And
I don't know how it works for other

163
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:22.960
communities. But that's it. And
this will be all part and parcel of

164
00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:30.799
Chatham Park, which is that the
bigger the bigger vision, So this will

165
00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:35.960
be its own thing in there,
and and they're calling it Asteria and that

166
00:14:37.080 --> 00:14:39.080
amuses me. I don't know,
why don't you put this over in Raleigh

167
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:46.159
at the near the Destination Park.
I'm just saying, yeah, got options?

168
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:50.559
Uh, And I'm trying to remember
who, Yeah, Presston Development.

169
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:54.919
That's the company that is the larger
thing. So yeah, I again,

170
00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:58.919
I don't know exactly what these Disney
communities look like, but I did get

171
00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:05.000
because I'm two, all right.
In addition to that insanity, we got

172
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:09.039
details on what happened in Las Vegas
yesterday, because yes, there are some

173
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:16.279
local connections. Porch pirate stuff and
Boyle boy just a bunch of stupid on

174
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:20.840
the show today, so stick around
back in just a few All right,

175
00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:24.840
good morning and welcome. It is
six thirty four CaCO Day Radio program.

176
00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:28.559
Actually, I can say I was
so blown away. Even though this wouldn't

177
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:31.480
really impact you, it just shows
you the lengths the people are willing to

178
00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:35.759
go to and I don't. I
don't. Admittedly I don't understand the endgame

179
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:39.960
here. So one of the things
you got to know is all day,

180
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:45.200
every day, while I'm awake,
while I'm asleep, while I'm grocery shopping,

181
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:50.799
while I'm watching a movie, well, who knows, chances are interview

182
00:15:50.840 --> 00:16:00.440
pitches from various agencies. I want
to say agent, I mean like private

183
00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:04.039
rep agencies, you know, people
who handle talent and doing that. Say

184
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:07.679
it's a whole industry. Then unless
you're in this business, you may not

185
00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:15.360
be aware of authors. Pr People
for not just elected officials, but for

186
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:21.360
everything are sending you pitches and they
want, you know, because they want

187
00:16:21.360 --> 00:16:23.360
to get their guests booked on the
air, And the way that they make

188
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:29.240
money is they go tell people who
crave being famous. So if you're in

189
00:16:29.279 --> 00:16:33.039
a if you're a lawyers, who's
you know, charismatic and or you're a

190
00:16:33.200 --> 00:16:38.399
doctor, or you are a and
an insert whatever it is. And you

191
00:16:38.440 --> 00:16:42.559
want to raise your profile, you
want to do TV hits, you want

192
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:45.080
to do radio interviews, things like
that. You can go out and you

193
00:16:45.080 --> 00:16:51.879
can essentially hire an agency. You're
hiring a you know, a manager,

194
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:55.039
and then they you know, you
work out whatever the revenue is and then

195
00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:57.399
they claim that they're going to get
you interviews all over the country and that'll

196
00:16:57.480 --> 00:17:03.400
raise your profile. And ninety nine
point ninety percent of them I just ignore

197
00:17:03.680 --> 00:17:10.559
because we don't really do many guests
on this show. But some talk shows,

198
00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:15.759
and I'm not everybody's got their own
thing. Some people who do talk

199
00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:22.319
radio can't do what we do.
Whereas I could sit here, I could

200
00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:26.880
sit here and talk for three hours
with no guests, no problem. You

201
00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:30.599
put Ross and I together, we
just standing on the head man. We

202
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:33.599
don't need guests. So any guests
that we put on there needs to be

203
00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:37.359
a reason, and we want it
to be good, which is and so

204
00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:41.200
when we have the regular guests like
the Pete on Friday and and you know

205
00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:45.519
you guys like that, and then
we track this stuff. But some guy

206
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:48.720
who just wrote a book on moles, I get a pitch for it.

207
00:17:49.119 --> 00:17:52.839
But that's how I'm telling you this. I'm telling you this because I was

208
00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:57.799
talking to some folks and there was
a pitch that got sent to a radio

209
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:02.880
station not here, somebody else who
do who does a talk show? And

210
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:07.920
it looked like an organization that does
like veteran stuff. And there's a lot

211
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:11.839
of them, the ones that you're
probably most familiar with Tunnel to Towers,

212
00:18:12.400 --> 00:18:15.599
right I just because I know Clay
and Buck talk about him, Glenn Beck

213
00:18:15.680 --> 00:18:18.640
talks about him and others. And
by the way, I'm not telling you

214
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:22.759
which charities to do stuff, but
during the holiday season there's a lot of

215
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:25.720
charitable pitches because there's a lot of
people in need. I get that.

216
00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:33.720
But what was crazy was the person
I was talking to or and on the

217
00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:40.200
email list with this isn't they think
it's a scam. So that's how brazen

218
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:42.079
some people are willing to go.
And I don't know all the details yet,

219
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:47.119
just what's on here, but basically
it's like, hey, so and

220
00:18:47.160 --> 00:18:52.279
so is the communications person for such
and such charity, and you know this

221
00:18:52.359 --> 00:18:55.759
year they hoped to write what were
they wanting to do? They were wanting

222
00:18:55.799 --> 00:19:00.039
to end veteran homelessness or medical needs
or something, which is good. That's

223
00:19:00.440 --> 00:19:06.599
that's that's great, addressing suicide issues. I'm fine with that. But basically,

224
00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:11.400
I guess I guess the scam is
they get on the air and then

225
00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:14.720
they give a website and then people
make donations, and that's the scam.

226
00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:21.759
That's crazy to me. That's not
cold calling grandma saying you're the grandkid,

227
00:19:21.880 --> 00:19:26.759
you lost your wallet and you need
money. Wired that's not even niger So

228
00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:30.400
to me, that somehow sounds crazier
than Nigerian prince. And I guess it's

229
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:34.640
just the part where somebody be willing
to go on the air. But then

230
00:19:34.680 --> 00:19:37.400
I thought, well, maybe that's
not it. Maybe they think the host

231
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:41.680
will just put it on a list
of charity. So I don't I don't

232
00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:45.759
know. I did. I wrote
somebody back, so did somebody book this?

233
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:48.240
I'll let you know. But that
was crazy and I know it's a

234
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:52.200
little inside baseball, but and then
just send it to radio hosts either,

235
00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:57.920
So I people are getting creative.
Man, you just never know, you

236
00:19:59.279 --> 00:20:00.680
never know what. You don't trust
anyone. But I mean, if you

237
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:06.039
do want to give, you can
give to the Hayes Global Initiative. It's

238
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:10.279
people helping people and it just drop
off whatever you want to donate on my

239
00:20:10.359 --> 00:20:14.920
porch and I'll give it to the
people. Are the people you. I

240
00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:18.200
am a person. I can't they
who gets it, but I am a

241
00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:22.319
person. So right, yeah,
there'd be no fraud there, right,

242
00:20:25.039 --> 00:20:29.440
didn't you? U? What didn't
a Hogwarts lego set? I believe was

243
00:20:29.440 --> 00:20:36.000
something one year that I believe this
organization was attempting to fundraise for. Can

244
00:20:36.000 --> 00:20:38.160
you imagine I have to think that
if you called the book that that they

245
00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:41.480
wouldn't book it. That there's another
element to this scam that I'm missing.

246
00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:45.880
But how elaborate is that considering all
the crap that hits your inbox every day?

247
00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:49.480
I mean that being said, I
mean, yeah, it's awful,

248
00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:53.240
it's it's you know, you're probably
going to hell. But it's really smart

249
00:20:53.240 --> 00:20:57.920
because people that listen to talk radio
tend to be charitable, right, yeah,

250
00:20:59.240 --> 00:21:03.240
it tends to be some toys six
thousand toys during our stuff with us

251
00:21:03.400 --> 00:21:11.279
last weekend, six thousand toys And
yes they do. I remember, you

252
00:21:11.319 --> 00:21:15.240
know, we merely mentioned remember the
GoFundMe for that for the for the sheriff's

253
00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:19.799
deputy who was who was murdered to
help with his you know, his family,

254
00:21:19.920 --> 00:21:22.559
but also is a bit of a
screw you to the former sheriff who

255
00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:30.039
if you don't remember that debacle,
holy crap man. And people gave generously,

256
00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:34.079
and look, it's important to do
your research on anything in anyone you

257
00:21:34.119 --> 00:21:37.319
want to give to, whether it
is I'm not I'm not gonna give you

258
00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:40.680
any details on this. I'm not
gonna put their name out there, but

259
00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:45.480
just to say that that's what it
kind of looked like. But and instinctually

260
00:21:45.680 --> 00:21:48.279
you see something like that and you're
like, yeah, I don't I don't

261
00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:52.200
think that people who serve this country
should be living on the streets. So

262
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:56.359
sure here's yeah, absolutely, and
you feel good doing that. And that's

263
00:21:56.440 --> 00:21:59.559
part of it. For some people, I think that's all of it,

264
00:21:59.680 --> 00:22:03.240
which is weird, but but you
know, it's just the human nature of

265
00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:10.759
it. But you still got it. Check stuff, okay, go and

266
00:22:10.799 --> 00:22:17.720
research stuff. Charity navigators pretty good
for search and stuff up. But some

267
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:22.200
charity is are very small, but
they're still you know, they're still doing

268
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:25.880
stuff. But you know, google
it through there and if you hypothetically go

269
00:22:25.920 --> 00:22:29.559
to Charity navigator and you entered Hayese
Global Initiative. You don't see anything there.

270
00:22:29.599 --> 00:22:32.880
Yeah, you might want to check
the People Helping People charity. It

271
00:22:32.880 --> 00:22:37.359
could it could be under it's a
subsidiary of the Hayes First Share of Global

272
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:42.000
Initiative. Yeah, that was just
Hayes Global Initiative. So now there's politics

273
00:22:42.440 --> 00:22:48.599
particular you hate, you hate to
see it, but you can't really drop

274
00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:52.440
off the gifts on my porch.
Gifts you want to wrap for the people?

275
00:22:52.920 --> 00:22:56.960
Should they be wrapped from Santa if
you want to, if you find

276
00:22:56.960 --> 00:23:04.519
that in your heart, hm hmm. Got to help the people again.

277
00:23:04.640 --> 00:23:07.039
I'm very I'm on the I'm on
this thing here. It doesn't say who

278
00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:11.720
the people are. So are you
guys at least going to build houses in

279
00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:15.319
Haiti? Oh? Yeah, because
those global initiatives I can get behind.

280
00:23:17.119 --> 00:23:18.359
Well, how much money are we
talking about? If I'm gonna be building

281
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:23.839
houses in Haiti, get a hundred
mill how many houses could you where land

282
00:23:23.880 --> 00:23:29.039
is probably pretty cheap, perhaps like
three or four houses, maybe one neighborhoods

283
00:23:29.559 --> 00:23:32.480
like development neighborhoods, But I mean
you can fit a lot of people in

284
00:23:32.480 --> 00:23:37.960
that one house. I'm sorry,
neighbor developments. Beggars can't be choosers,

285
00:23:37.000 --> 00:23:41.799
you know, or literally just four
houses, I'm confused. Four neighborhoods,

286
00:23:41.799 --> 00:23:45.920
four houses, you know, for
for individual homes. Oh, there are

287
00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:53.319
lots of people could fit into what
Well, yeah, I guess the best

288
00:23:53.319 --> 00:23:56.640
part of is Haiti. So there's
no fire coat, just as many people

289
00:23:56.640 --> 00:24:00.720
as you want. But there's fires
full this globe. I'm not sure if

290
00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:04.759
that's actually a fact. They somehow
don't have trees but have massive fires,

291
00:24:04.960 --> 00:24:12.000
right what? Oh? The problem
is, though, you don't want to

292
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:15.279
leave your house. When you come
back, it'll look like it'll look like

293
00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:22.920
the frame of an automobile on blocks
in that comedy fashion. So you'll probably

294
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:26.319
want to build it out of really
not up to par materials and have the

295
00:24:26.400 --> 00:24:32.440
five you did build basically be uninhabitable
already. Do you guys think you could

296
00:24:32.480 --> 00:24:37.839
do that? Because that's the standard
right there. Yes, that's a Clinton

297
00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:42.079
foundation, but it's not a joke. Look it up. They ended up

298
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:45.799
with like five houses. They were
gonna save Haiti, and they built five

299
00:24:45.839 --> 00:24:49.200
houses, and I think some of
them are uninhabitable now. At least one

300
00:24:49.240 --> 00:24:53.359
of them is the one I was
reading about because some materials they used.

301
00:24:53.559 --> 00:24:59.480
I know I'm shocked too, So
all right, I get a little little

302
00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:03.519
Loftari, how about I teach you
how to survive a tiger incident? You

303
00:25:03.519 --> 00:25:07.279
guys want that. That'd be useful, right you? You know you could

304
00:25:07.319 --> 00:25:11.480
run into a tiger today, and
I bet it never crossed your mind as

305
00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:15.319
you walk out your door today that
at some point you could be confronted with

306
00:25:15.359 --> 00:25:19.839
a giant cat that would eat you. I know what you're saying. You're

307
00:25:19.839 --> 00:25:22.720
saying case tigers are not native here, And to that, I would say,

308
00:25:23.240 --> 00:25:30.519
google Big Cat Sanctuary and North Carolina
and you're got You're surrounded by more

309
00:25:30.559 --> 00:25:34.720
tigers than you know, and you
know other stuff that'll eat you. So

310
00:25:36.319 --> 00:25:37.680
one of them gets out, boom, Now you got an incident. So

311
00:25:37.839 --> 00:25:44.559
yeah, I'd say that my information
could be pretty helpful. So we will.

312
00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:48.799
We'll get into that. Another reason
to leave Australia. And coming up

313
00:25:48.839 --> 00:25:53.640
seven o five, the shooting in
Las Vegas yesterday and there is lots of

314
00:25:55.079 --> 00:26:00.480
local connections with the guy who is
I had to be the shooter. Can't

315
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:03.680
ask him because's dead, but you
know, we'll give you the details.

316
00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:10.839
Cacoday Radio program let me tell you
something, and this is something that is

317
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:17.480
always always impressive when you watch it
in action and you realize that as many

318
00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:22.880
comparisons as we make generationally, right, and you know, the old the

319
00:26:22.200 --> 00:26:26.599
old adages, man, everyone's getting
soft, and whatever generation you are,

320
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:32.079
it's natural that you look at the
generation under you who doesn't have the lived

321
00:26:32.119 --> 00:26:37.039
experience and didn't necessarily have to grow
up with the same set of circumstances,

322
00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:38.519
and you're just like, look at
these cupcakes, all right, you know,

323
00:26:38.680 --> 00:26:41.920
they get off the lawn thing and
for the most part, it's harmless

324
00:26:41.960 --> 00:26:49.799
whatever. And but I'll tell you
you saw it. I saw it within

325
00:26:49.920 --> 00:26:55.799
my generation with nine to eleven,
but not to the extent that you saw

326
00:26:55.839 --> 00:27:03.720
it back in nineteen forty one with
folks. You know, today is the

327
00:27:03.720 --> 00:27:07.960
eighty second anniversary of the bombing of
Pearl Harbor. It's December seventh. I

328
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:11.599
want to give it a mantion because
even if I don't mention, even if

329
00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:14.200
I mentioned it every segment, I
still get people go, I can't believe

330
00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:17.160
you didn't bring Pearl Harbor up.
But I think about it. I was

331
00:27:17.160 --> 00:27:22.200
thinking about it through this context.
Today I'm trying to think of twenty.

332
00:27:22.279 --> 00:27:27.440
He would have been twenty or twenty
one. I'm trying the context in which

333
00:27:27.599 --> 00:27:30.160
you watch, and I want to
I want to remind you, well,

334
00:27:30.200 --> 00:27:33.279
maybe not watch, but you hear. And then he kind of watched maybe.

335
00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:40.160
But with the stuff that you show
at theaters, you get news.

336
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:45.400
You're you're a you're a you're a
ranch kid. You and your four brothers.

337
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:48.920
Your father just died of als.
They didn't call it Louke Grigg's disease

338
00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:55.599
yet because I guess that would have
made things uncomfortable for lou But and now

339
00:27:55.640 --> 00:27:59.880
it's just you and your mom and
your four brothers and your dirt poor and

340
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:03.559
you're literally you're you. You're doing
like a local ups where you and your

341
00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:08.680
brothers will deliver packages from place to
place near round Up, Montana, which

342
00:28:08.720 --> 00:28:15.240
is where my grandfather's side of the
family is from. And and you you

343
00:28:15.279 --> 00:28:19.720
hear about what's happening for a little
while. Uh there is concern as to

344
00:28:19.960 --> 00:28:26.240
how much of the Pacific Fleet was
destroyed, right, they didn't have the

345
00:28:26.319 --> 00:28:30.799
numbers at they're ready, and uh
so people a lot of people were thinking

346
00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:37.000
that they basically obliterated half of our
navy, and so what do you do.

347
00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:42.000
You and two of your other brothers
who are old enough you go to

348
00:28:42.119 --> 00:28:48.599
Billings enjoyed the RB like the same
week because you're just like, oh no,

349
00:28:49.359 --> 00:28:52.839
screw me, Oh no, no, no, no, screw you.

350
00:28:52.440 --> 00:28:55.920
And you saw that. You also
saw that, you know, post

351
00:28:56.000 --> 00:29:00.640
nine to eleven. But it it
obviously and and I understand and that within

352
00:29:00.680 --> 00:29:03.200
World War Two and then up to
Vietnam, we had, you know,

353
00:29:03.319 --> 00:29:06.160
different ways in which people go in
the military. You had draft stuff,

354
00:29:06.160 --> 00:29:10.960
you had, But the factor remains, that's the decision he made, as

355
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:18.240
I understand it, and that's the
decision a lot of people made. And

356
00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:23.759
I'm trying to think of twenty year
old me literally half walking, half half

357
00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:30.839
riding almost I guess that'd be about
eighty miles round up to buildings, just

358
00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:34.920
so you can go over and kick
the crap out of the guys who just

359
00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:41.079
blew up your island, little island
paradise there and your military base. And

360
00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:44.680
that's where we're at. And I
don't want to sit here and play favorites.

361
00:29:44.720 --> 00:29:49.960
Whatever motivates people to want to go
do that. You know, the

362
00:29:51.079 --> 00:29:55.720
naysayers would say that people joined the
military because they're economically challenged, not all

363
00:29:55.720 --> 00:29:59.720
of them. My grandfather sure was, but most people were obviously in coming

364
00:29:59.720 --> 00:30:07.119
out of that era. But that's
that's not everybody. People do it,

365
00:30:07.240 --> 00:30:10.480
so people do it for a variety
of reasons. I can't speak to ultimately

366
00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:17.279
what the motivation would be because I
did not serve. But that's just crazy,

367
00:30:17.359 --> 00:30:18.799
man. And the only and the
only reason the other two brothers didn't

368
00:30:18.799 --> 00:30:22.599
go is they were one they were
younger, and two somebody had to stick

369
00:30:22.599 --> 00:30:27.440
around and essentially help mom. It
would be my great grandmother. So ah,

370
00:30:27.640 --> 00:30:30.440
you know what I'm saying, ross
like that motivation of twenty year old

371
00:30:30.480 --> 00:30:34.480
me versus twenty year old my grandfather. It's just not on par. I

372
00:30:34.519 --> 00:30:38.079
had a grandfather in the Pacific,
and I had a grandfather that went to

373
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:41.039
Europe, and it's absolutely incredible that
he just got up and went yeah,

374
00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:44.240
they're just like, oh no.
It reminds me of you know, the

375
00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:47.599
movie Paton, where Patton's given the
speech in the beginning, he's like,

376
00:30:47.640 --> 00:30:48.759
you know, granddad, what did
you do in the Great World War two?

377
00:30:49.359 --> 00:30:52.920
You know? And like do you
want to say that you shoveled blank

378
00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:56.599
in Louisiana or do you right?
Well, you can't really say some of

379
00:30:56.599 --> 00:30:59.799
the other stuff. But yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

380
00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:07.599
that's exactly. It is. Your
grandfather slap people too, because if you

381
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:11.160
want the full patent experience, you
also got a backhanded coward at least once.

382
00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:18.480
So but yeah, that is that
is definitely. There are so many

383
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:22.839
unique stories there. And then there's
the I've mentioned on the show. There's

384
00:31:22.880 --> 00:31:27.359
the totality of all the series of
events that had to transpire for me to

385
00:31:27.440 --> 00:31:33.680
be here, right is the uniqueness
of it. It's his military service experience,

386
00:31:33.759 --> 00:31:38.720
his experience, his his his wound, the way that they handled that,

387
00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:48.400
the where he then moved and met
my grandmother who he grew up like

388
00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:52.519
sixty miles from and they'd never met
because that's just how things were. And

389
00:31:52.559 --> 00:32:02.240
then they met in Japanese internment camp
kind of plau Heart Butt in Wyoming.

390
00:32:02.240 --> 00:32:07.160
There, but all of those other
things had to happen, all of the

391
00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:15.400
other things for two sets of Ross's
grandfather's had to happen for him to be

392
00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:19.920
here. And it's just this is
why I nerd out on history stuff,

393
00:32:20.000 --> 00:32:22.480
especially when you get into the unique
stuff. So I did. I didn't

394
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:23.559
want to take him out. I
get the tiger stuff. We got,

395
00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:27.720
we got debate, all sorts of
stuff. But I did want to make

396
00:32:27.759 --> 00:32:30.279
mention of that because I was just
thinking about that. I might I was

397
00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:37.200
barely motivated enough to go and uh
uh go by had something to drink this

398
00:32:37.319 --> 00:32:40.640
morning. It's so lazy, I
was. I'm like, ah, I

399
00:32:40.680 --> 00:32:45.079
don't want to go grab something to
eat, something to drink. I'll deal

400
00:32:45.119 --> 00:32:50.480
with that later. These guys are
sitting on a he's sitting on a stump

401
00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:52.160
out and round up Montana, and
they're just like, all right, I

402
00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:55.920
guess I'm gonna go. I guess
I'm gonna go. Uh blow up all

403
00:32:55.960 --> 00:33:04.400
the Japanese. Well you know the
motivation at the time, but yeah,

404
00:33:04.480 --> 00:33:07.279
take nope. Man, take note, that is today eighty two years my

405
00:33:07.319 --> 00:33:10.480
grandfather you passed away at ninety nine
here, not that long ago, but

406
00:33:10.839 --> 00:33:42.599
man, craziness, Good morning everybody, and welcome in his Thursday is hour

407
00:33:42.680 --> 00:33:51.279
number two. We were at seven
oh six KCDA radio program. So the

408
00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:57.559
headline they put on Drudge, and
I only go to Drudge to glance at

409
00:33:57.599 --> 00:34:00.400
it. I don't even really click
links anymore because I don't know what happened

410
00:34:00.400 --> 00:34:08.920
there. But the right at the
top. It says Gop hides forth debate,

411
00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:13.199
and they're playing off of the New
York Times saying that, oh,

412
00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:17.639
they didn't do a lot to promote
at well, I mean I don't feel

413
00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:21.480
that they did any less, Like, were you not aware that the debate

414
00:34:21.559 --> 00:34:23.159
was going I was aware that it
was going on. Ross was aware because

415
00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:28.400
he knows that he's got to pull
audio the next morning, and of course,

416
00:34:28.440 --> 00:34:30.679
you know, watch it intently with
his family. Do you guys have

417
00:34:30.719 --> 00:34:35.880
a good time. It's a good
time, okay, good or you know,

418
00:34:35.960 --> 00:34:37.119
sometimes things come up and then all
I ask to do is pull the

419
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:39.679
audio one the morning. And he
did so, like he knew. I

420
00:34:39.760 --> 00:34:45.519
knew, you knew. And I
think it's it's situational, but you know,

421
00:34:45.599 --> 00:34:49.400
let's allege a conspiracy. I would
also understand why people don't want to

422
00:34:49.440 --> 00:34:55.159
watch it because even back when Trump
was and there was sixteen of them up

423
00:34:55.159 --> 00:35:00.280
there, it wasn't that they were
pleasant to each other. It was just

424
00:35:00.320 --> 00:35:07.000
so it was so, what the
hell's gonna happen next? It's you know,

425
00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:09.960
it's very car accident in that standpoint. From that standpoint, and so

426
00:35:10.760 --> 00:35:16.800
it's not the way that politicians are
battling each other and landing body blows when

427
00:35:16.800 --> 00:35:22.079
they're speaking. It's that some politicians
have the ability to do it in a

428
00:35:22.119 --> 00:35:29.440
way that's not annoying, and others
are nails on chockboard. And I think

429
00:35:29.480 --> 00:35:34.320
when you have candidates, by the
way, this is not me endorsing,

430
00:35:34.480 --> 00:35:38.719
unendorsing, picking whatever. I'm just
not entertained as much as I'm annoyed.

431
00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:43.280
And I don't know why that is. And and by the way, doesn't

432
00:35:43.280 --> 00:35:46.199
that Trump doesn't have to be there
for me to be entertained. There's lots

433
00:35:46.239 --> 00:35:54.599
and lots of situational debates and discussions
that I that I find entertaining. But

434
00:35:54.719 --> 00:36:05.360
sometimes I'm just like, yesterday,
Ross's three provinces in Ukraine. I cannot

435
00:36:05.880 --> 00:36:08.360
But however, what however, I
don't think we should be over there,

436
00:36:08.400 --> 00:36:12.320
and I don't care about Ukraine.
So that's my point of view. It's

437
00:36:12.360 --> 00:36:15.679
like if I cared about it,
maybe I should know. But I I

438
00:36:15.800 --> 00:36:19.639
just name a city in Massachusetts,
Boston. Oh wow, look at that,

439
00:36:19.719 --> 00:36:22.239
right. It's important to me because
it's the rivalry. Yeah, but

440
00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:23.559
you know, in the United States, it's important to me, Like you

441
00:36:23.559 --> 00:36:27.800
don't want to do anything over there? Because I mean, those people are

442
00:36:27.800 --> 00:36:31.800
crazy. But all right, so
you can't ross But if you wanted to,

443
00:36:32.119 --> 00:36:37.239
Let's say, hypothetically, you wanted
to use that gotcha question against somebody

444
00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:43.760
else, how would you go about
doing that? Hypothetically, Let's say you

445
00:36:43.800 --> 00:36:46.320
wanted to appear very smart on this
particular front, and you're the one who's

446
00:36:46.360 --> 00:36:52.880
gonna get to pose the question even
if you know nothing about Ukraine. Just

447
00:36:52.960 --> 00:36:57.320
go remember three, ask your opponent
when they can't rattle them off when right,

448
00:36:57.360 --> 00:36:59.320
and be like, haha, I
can't believe you didn't know what I

449
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:01.559
just found out like twenty minutes ago. Yeah, And I'm not saying that

450
00:37:01.559 --> 00:37:07.119
that is necessarily what happened. I'm
saying that it's not a test of one's

451
00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:14.679
ability because I don't know that that
didn't happen, you know, vivic.

452
00:37:14.760 --> 00:37:17.000
And by the way, that's the
pronunciation we're going with. I just don't

453
00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:20.519
If he gets elected, I'll learn
it. It's like I did with Kamala

454
00:37:20.559 --> 00:37:22.639
when she got elected. I'm like, fine, I better learn how to

455
00:37:22.679 --> 00:37:29.199
say it. So like he may
very well know all of them and Hayley

456
00:37:29.280 --> 00:37:31.920
may or may not or Christy may
and may not or whatever, but I

457
00:37:31.960 --> 00:37:36.039
also don't know if you're the one
pushing it, if you didn't just google

458
00:37:36.039 --> 00:37:40.360
it on your phone before the debate, So it doesn't prove what you think

459
00:37:40.400 --> 00:37:46.199
it proves, even though it may
is. I guess what I'm saying here

460
00:37:47.440 --> 00:37:55.519
and for future future reference ross three
good ones, blight Town, Los Santos,

461
00:37:57.000 --> 00:38:02.679
and Tristram are the three big province. I don't I don't think that's

462
00:38:02.679 --> 00:38:08.480
correct. I know the to the
audio. What have you never been to

463
00:38:08.480 --> 00:38:13.719
Blake Town? I have been numerous
times. Oh, look at that the

464
00:38:13.719 --> 00:38:20.159
back in my hand. The Great
Club there? What do they have clubs

465
00:38:20.159 --> 00:38:22.320
there? The Great Club? Is
it like a? Is it a hip

466
00:38:22.360 --> 00:38:25.719
hop club? Is it a rock
club? Is it? Obviously that is

467
00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:30.440
a that is a certain unit's a
that's a world or the level of dark

468
00:38:30.480 --> 00:38:36.880
Souls the Ukrainian province. I don't
know. Have you are you familiar with

469
00:38:36.920 --> 00:38:42.039
Eastern I feel like in Dark Souls
in Diablo, which is Tristram, I

470
00:38:42.079 --> 00:38:47.519
feel like I feel like there's more, Uh, there's more influence from Eastern

471
00:38:47.599 --> 00:38:52.679
Europe in designing those towns, because
it really kind of you know, it's

472
00:38:52.280 --> 00:38:55.880
it's they're going for medieval hellhole,
right, I mean, really, when

473
00:38:55.920 --> 00:39:01.280
you put together Tristram and Diablo or
Blake Town in Dark Souls, right,

474
00:39:01.559 --> 00:39:06.719
they're not fun places, right,
And it's not a fun world you're living

475
00:39:06.719 --> 00:39:10.920
in. And you know, plague
era Europe and especially parts of Eastern Europe

476
00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:16.280
were not nice places. I think
if Ukraine you featured chaos, which kuay

477
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:21.000
log, I think I might be
paying more attention. It's talking about Spider

478
00:39:21.039 --> 00:39:25.559
Woman. Yeah, she's over by
the nuke plant, except now she's thirty

479
00:39:25.599 --> 00:39:29.480
times the size, so watch it. I would explain it. Yeah,

480
00:39:29.519 --> 00:39:31.840
how do you think those the bosses
get like that? Chernobyl? Come on,

481
00:39:31.880 --> 00:39:36.480
man, do you not know stuff? Look at that Ross is unqualified

482
00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:39.079
to be president? He didn't know. All right, let's get into this.

483
00:39:42.960 --> 00:39:45.800
It's you know, of course we
had to make Creer. We had

484
00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:52.559
to have Chris Christie fat jokes him
and him and around Aswami do not like

485
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:55.039
each other. It is clear.
I don't think any of them like any

486
00:39:55.079 --> 00:39:59.880
of them, although I think Christy
and Haley probably don't want to punch you

487
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:04.000
each other in the face. But
still it's only because I think they both

488
00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:12.920
hate Ramswami more and so we get
stuff like this. I'm having three things

489
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:15.119
right there. First of all,
Chris Christy also doesn't know what provinces in

490
00:40:15.159 --> 00:40:20.559
eastern Ukraine he actually wants to fight
for. Chris, your version of foreign

491
00:40:20.639 --> 00:40:24.360
policy experience was closing a bridge from
New Jersey to New York. So do

492
00:40:24.440 --> 00:40:28.960
everybody a favor. Just walk yourself
off that stage, enjoy a nice Neil,

493
00:40:29.320 --> 00:40:30.719
and get the hell out of this
place. So when it comes to

494
00:40:30.800 --> 00:40:35.760
Nikki, I think if you're gonna
ast you to send your sons and daughters

495
00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:38.679
to go die in somebody else's ward, Excuse me, Chris, I'm speaking,

496
00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:42.599
and I'm not done yet. I
haven't heard a time when we're going

497
00:40:42.679 --> 00:40:45.639
to be done. So listen up
to this is. If these people want

498
00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:49.039
to send your sons and daughters to
go die in Ukraine, they've been arguing

499
00:40:49.079 --> 00:40:52.880
for it for a year, two
hundred billion dollars of our taxpayer money sent

500
00:40:52.920 --> 00:40:55.639
over. Neither of them could even
name for you the provinces that they actually

501
00:40:55.639 --> 00:41:00.000
want to protect, all right,
And I gotta be honest. When I

502
00:41:00.119 --> 00:41:02.159
saw this, I thought I thought
I could name three. I couldn't.

503
00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:07.559
I could name two, though,
because obviously CRIMEA is even though it is

504
00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:15.039
technical under Russia Ukraine still considers it
its own province, and then obviously you

505
00:41:15.039 --> 00:41:19.039
have the cities which generally share the
name of the province. But to that

506
00:41:19.320 --> 00:41:24.280
point, Nicki Haley said she wanted
everyone on the internet to have to say

507
00:41:24.320 --> 00:41:30.199
who they are on social media?
How is that not your plan of attack,

508
00:41:30.320 --> 00:41:35.840
not just from Ramswami but Christy and
everybody else, Like shouldn't I just

509
00:41:35.920 --> 00:41:38.440
assumed it would be a Nicky Haley
pile on after that, right, because

510
00:41:38.440 --> 00:41:42.119
that was just so like, why
would you put that out there? And

511
00:41:42.159 --> 00:41:46.159
she said in like three different interviews, and while it was brought up,

512
00:41:46.280 --> 00:41:55.119
it just not really, man,
not really. They mentioned it and then

513
00:41:55.119 --> 00:42:00.159
they floated past and I found that
particularly horrific when I heard it. And

514
00:42:00.239 --> 00:42:05.480
so you got Ramswami throwing that out
there. Christie, of course he's doing

515
00:42:05.519 --> 00:42:08.519
the attack dog. That's the reason. Yes, it's exactly what you said.

516
00:42:08.840 --> 00:42:15.199
You do this at every debate.
I didn't interrupt you. Okay,

517
00:42:15.480 --> 00:42:20.800
you say this. You you every
debate, you go out of the stuff

518
00:42:20.840 --> 00:42:23.440
and you say something. All of
us see it on video, we confront

519
00:42:23.480 --> 00:42:27.320
you on on the debate stage,
you say you didn't say it, and

520
00:42:27.360 --> 00:42:30.119
then you back away, And I
want to say I'm not done yet.

521
00:42:30.159 --> 00:42:38.599
Well, this is look something.
This is the fourth debate, the fourth

522
00:42:38.639 --> 00:42:43.719
debate that you would be voted in
the first twenty minutes as the most ubnoxious

523
00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:50.960
blow hard in America. Shut up, so you know good times if you

524
00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:55.280
watch I was, I remember that
thing your TV did. We're just burst

525
00:42:55.280 --> 00:42:59.199
into flames, RUSSA. It tends
to happen in every debate. I'm like,

526
00:42:59.199 --> 00:43:00.960
I'm gonna sit down, get the
popcorn ready for the debate. Boom.

527
00:43:01.039 --> 00:43:04.719
Yeah, something happens to my TV
and I can't watch. It's a

528
00:43:04.719 --> 00:43:07.440
shame. This is why people need
to donate to the Global Initiatives. You

529
00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:12.000
can replace your TV, right,
Yeah, mine didn't burst into flames.

530
00:43:12.079 --> 00:43:19.079
I just didn't. I looked at
the remote and went, nope, no,

531
00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:23.599
I'll I'll watch a little some on
my iPad and then occasionally glance at

532
00:43:23.639 --> 00:43:28.119
Twitter. That was a good speed
for me. All Right, we got

533
00:43:28.159 --> 00:43:30.320
we got lots smarter. What is
this one debates summed up? Did you

534
00:43:30.400 --> 00:43:37.920
do a master edit of the entire
Oh? Okay, because that's because if

535
00:43:37.960 --> 00:43:39.840
not, I have let's see here
forty two three. No, if you're

536
00:43:39.880 --> 00:43:44.159
pressed for time, just see I
like seven and a half minutes of all

537
00:43:44.199 --> 00:43:47.199
the other cuts, this one is
only twenty two seconds. That sounds like

538
00:43:47.239 --> 00:43:52.960
an amazingly efficient menagerie here, so
super cut? Is that what we're going

539
00:43:52.960 --> 00:43:58.239
for? Okay, well let me
yeah, let's uh, let's hit this

540
00:43:58.360 --> 00:44:00.719
and shed some light on all that
you would have missed had you not seen

541
00:44:00.800 --> 00:44:04.360
him. Then you're crazy? I
know you are, but what am I?

542
00:44:04.559 --> 00:44:06.880
You're a ner? I know you
are, But what am I?

543
00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:08.559
You're an idiot? I know you
are. What am I? I know

544
00:44:08.639 --> 00:44:12.519
you are? But what am I? I know you are? Am I?

545
00:44:12.519 --> 00:44:15.360
I know you are. I know
you are, But what am I?

546
00:44:15.360 --> 00:44:16.719
I know you are? But what
am I? Infinity? No,

547
00:44:17.000 --> 00:44:25.360
I'm not, you are no knock
up? I know he's dead now.

548
00:44:27.719 --> 00:44:37.880
And one that is not a combination
of moments from yesterday's furs GOP debate.

549
00:44:37.920 --> 00:44:42.599
If you didn't pick up on that
too, Paul Rubins, but in character

550
00:44:42.840 --> 00:44:46.639
as president would be amazing because of
how uncomfortable it would make other world leaders.

551
00:44:46.639 --> 00:44:51.039
Do you know what I mean?
If he's full bow tie suit enacting

552
00:44:51.119 --> 00:44:54.000
his Pee week character. Yeah,
and a miss Evona secretary of State.

553
00:44:54.800 --> 00:44:58.400
Yeah, no, no, no, it kind of looks like idiocracy.

554
00:44:58.719 --> 00:45:05.079
Really with the cabineting there right where
it's you know, it's more a group

555
00:45:05.119 --> 00:45:07.840
of friends and they just kind of
sit around mildly smarter than everyone. Ah,

556
00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:12.599
it would be great. Can you
imagine Cherry in the Oval office in

557
00:45:12.719 --> 00:45:17.719
what could pacity is behind the desk? Are you like John F. Kennedy,

558
00:45:17.840 --> 00:45:25.000
Bill Clinton behind the desk or working? Uh? Yes, I have

559
00:45:30.199 --> 00:45:35.039
that is that's that's like one of
the creepiest things. Uh. That just

560
00:45:35.079 --> 00:45:37.159
did just the whole vision there.
You've ruined. Thank you, You've ruined

561
00:45:37.199 --> 00:45:45.800
my childhood. So I'm I'm I'm
incredibly uncomfortable. What about can we do

562
00:45:45.079 --> 00:45:50.239
crossover to can like hands across the
aisle and then we get some of the

563
00:45:50.280 --> 00:45:53.159
talking furniture there, but then we
incorporate some characters from other kids shows of

564
00:45:53.239 --> 00:45:55.679
the era. I mean, we
can compromise something. I'm open to it

565
00:45:57.400 --> 00:46:00.559
because I feel like if we wanted
to put together a super team team of

566
00:46:00.199 --> 00:46:06.719
children's or kids programming from the nineties, think of all of the people we

567
00:46:06.760 --> 00:46:09.400
would have access to and all of
the great jobs that we could put them

568
00:46:09.400 --> 00:46:13.880
in, you know, either because
one we think they might be good at

569
00:46:13.920 --> 00:46:16.760
it, Like you know, even
though LeVar Burton is a little moon battie.

570
00:46:16.920 --> 00:46:21.960
I'll take some LeVar Burton over at
you know, Library of Congress.

571
00:46:21.960 --> 00:46:25.760
Boom. That's yours, buddy.
But we got some other crazier options too,

572
00:46:25.840 --> 00:46:30.000
so but yeah, no, Pee
Wee's at the forefront and Ross has

573
00:46:30.199 --> 00:46:37.960
Cherry doing some other stuff. So
what a morning? All right, seven

574
00:46:37.079 --> 00:46:42.559
nineteen the Tiger Insanity. I'll get
it next. Hang on keeping you connected.

575
00:46:42.920 --> 00:46:46.559
This is ninety four to five WPTI
in the Triad and one six one

576
00:46:46.679 --> 00:46:54.000
FM Talk in the Triangle. Oh
man, Yeah, welcome back. At

577
00:46:54.000 --> 00:47:00.199
is seven twenty five here on the
KCOD radio program. So as we were

578
00:47:00.199 --> 00:47:02.880
sitting here and wanting to share with
you what happened over at the debate,

579
00:47:06.599 --> 00:47:10.280
Ross is thinking about a Paul Rubin's
presidency or something. But then we started

580
00:47:10.320 --> 00:47:15.880
thinking, because this is quote labeled
debate summed up or super cut, then

581
00:47:15.920 --> 00:47:19.559
you're crazy. I don't know you
are, but what am I? You're

582
00:47:19.599 --> 00:47:27.320
and near And it's not that he's
not right, it's just that, I

583
00:47:27.360 --> 00:47:30.599
mean, technically it's not them.
But then I thought, you know'd be

584
00:47:30.599 --> 00:47:37.280
amazing in character Pee Wee Herman going
around to the you know, like the

585
00:47:37.320 --> 00:47:44.159
G twenty but acting in exactly that
same way. Just to watch Trudeau and

586
00:47:44.280 --> 00:47:47.760
others, just their level of discomfort
would be wildly amusing, because you got

587
00:47:47.800 --> 00:47:51.880
a little bit of that with Trump. I mean there was also seething hatred

588
00:47:52.239 --> 00:47:53.519
this. They would just be like, I have no idea what to do.

589
00:47:53.639 --> 00:47:55.880
I don't know. I mean the
difference is if you're going to look

590
00:47:55.880 --> 00:47:59.760
at like Paul Rubins as pee wee
there, it's like he was likable,

591
00:47:59.760 --> 00:48:01.119
which is why this show was great, right, it was funny, right

592
00:48:01.320 --> 00:48:05.440
yeah, And a lot of these
candidates on stage, I like, there's

593
00:48:05.480 --> 00:48:07.039
no reason for me to watch it
because I know who they all are at

594
00:48:07.039 --> 00:48:10.280
this point, and I'm not I'm
not going to really care and pay attention

595
00:48:10.360 --> 00:48:15.840
until there's two of them on the
stage going to be the candidate. And

596
00:48:15.920 --> 00:48:20.880
so now we're putting together basically,
let's do that and then but only eighties

597
00:48:20.960 --> 00:48:24.480
nineties that kids TV stars can be
in cabinet positions. Somebody brought this up

598
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:30.119
and you, I asked you,
and you immediately had an answer. But

599
00:48:30.159 --> 00:48:34.679
I feel like there's like four or
five correct answers, and that is where

600
00:48:34.880 --> 00:48:39.400
within the Herman administration, where does
Ernest fit in this I would put him

601
00:48:39.440 --> 00:48:44.559
as Secretary of the Interior because he
has an experience at camp. He does

602
00:48:44.679 --> 00:48:49.039
like camping, yes he does.
But also somebody's got to run the Department

603
00:48:49.079 --> 00:48:55.440
of Prisons. And there's also look, there's also Secretary of State. Look

604
00:48:55.480 --> 00:48:59.639
at the look what he was able
to do when he traveled to Africa that

605
00:48:59.719 --> 00:49:06.320
time, he was warmly welcomed,
according by to the box cover of him

606
00:49:06.320 --> 00:49:09.880
in a full tribal mask. So
yeah, and the problem with Department of

607
00:49:09.920 --> 00:49:14.280
Interior, which I like that,
I kind of want to stick the cast

608
00:49:14.360 --> 00:49:16.760
of Hay. Do you remember the
show Hey Dude on Nickelodeon. I do.

609
00:49:16.840 --> 00:49:20.000
It was after my time, but
yeah, I do, yeah,

610
00:49:20.079 --> 00:49:22.880
yeah, yeah, and yes,
and it was agreeably after my time too,

611
00:49:22.960 --> 00:49:25.360
but it stood out for I had
younger siblings and they'd watch it,

612
00:49:25.760 --> 00:49:32.760
and that show annoyed me so much
because every actor and actress on that show,

613
00:49:32.800 --> 00:49:37.760
if they were in an actual agricultural
environment, would be dead in three

614
00:49:37.840 --> 00:49:43.920
days. And maybe it's just because
you're seeing it through the lens of somebody,

615
00:49:43.960 --> 00:49:45.320
and it's like that's TV and all
that. But I want in there

616
00:49:45.400 --> 00:49:51.440
just so I could watch the bears
get them all right? Good morning,

617
00:49:51.519 --> 00:49:54.840
it is seven thirty five. And
I've said them before and I'll say it

618
00:49:54.880 --> 00:50:00.519
again. Jeff Jackson's a moon batman. Understand why some people would be like,

619
00:50:00.519 --> 00:50:04.440
oh, it seems like well,
and admittedly I have never met the

620
00:50:04.519 --> 00:50:07.559
dude in person, but I tend
to get an opposite vibe on some of

621
00:50:07.599 --> 00:50:13.880
his videos. But it's not about
the personality thing here. It's about bad

622
00:50:13.960 --> 00:50:17.760
ideas. And I just watched what
is a doozy so a video he posted

623
00:50:17.840 --> 00:50:24.079
yesterday on how he's going to tackle
which he's not wrong in the sense that

624
00:50:24.199 --> 00:50:28.599
this is a thing that happens,
and this is a thing that is happening,

625
00:50:28.719 --> 00:50:36.760
and it is having an impact on
housing prices, but politically, democrats

626
00:50:36.800 --> 00:50:40.079
want to act like it's the only
thing having an impact on housing prices,

627
00:50:40.199 --> 00:50:46.840
when in reality, there's larger things
impacting all the prices, you know,

628
00:50:47.000 --> 00:50:52.000
like the store prices for food for
your families you don't starve to death,

629
00:50:52.880 --> 00:51:00.440
utility prices, the cost of go
to a restaurant eat the other day and

630
00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:05.039
it had been a while and I'm
like, this is twice what it was.

631
00:51:07.719 --> 00:51:13.119
I what was it was? Trying
to remember it was a fast food

632
00:51:13.119 --> 00:51:15.800
item. I'm like, how is
this twice what it was? But I

633
00:51:15.880 --> 00:51:22.159
know the answer inherently. So this
has to do with the cost of housing

634
00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:28.480
and corporations, right, the big
evil corporations, the corporations so evil that

635
00:51:30.679 --> 00:51:36.719
they're cool with Disney running its own
kingdom literal kingdom, governing itself in Florida.

636
00:51:36.840 --> 00:51:40.760
But if you're a corporation that buys
houses and you rent them, and

637
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:45.000
I'm not here saying it's a good
thing when they're buying twenty thirty percent of

638
00:51:45.000 --> 00:51:52.719
the housing stock from a mass standpoint, it's definitely impactful. It's disruptive,

639
00:51:52.840 --> 00:51:55.400
especially for first time home buyers.
So if you want to recognize, hey,

640
00:51:55.440 --> 00:51:59.280
this is a problem, what you
have to do is you have to

641
00:51:59.280 --> 00:52:02.840
figure out Okay, so one is
this the government's job to step in and

642
00:52:02.880 --> 00:52:08.599
do something? And two, if
you do think it is, how do

643
00:52:08.679 --> 00:52:14.079
you exert influence or do something?
But in a way that is fitting with

644
00:52:14.719 --> 00:52:20.559
frankly what you should have your fingers
in any way, but also not incredibly

645
00:52:21.800 --> 00:52:30.000
against almost every law that we have
ork intoor constitutional protections, which, as

646
00:52:30.079 --> 00:52:34.280
much as people hate it, do
extend to corporations, especially from a First

647
00:52:34.280 --> 00:52:43.159
Amendment standpoint, Right, that's that's
something that is a constant point of discussion.

648
00:52:43.159 --> 00:52:45.960
All right, So I'm bouncing around
here just a little bit. I

649
00:52:46.000 --> 00:52:52.079
wanted you to get the gist of
it, so I'll get into that coming

650
00:52:52.199 --> 00:52:58.400
up here in the next segment.
I got to go this this direction first

651
00:52:58.400 --> 00:53:00.760
though, because I promised the tiger
story. I feel bad. I don't

652
00:53:00.760 --> 00:53:04.239
want any all to get eaten by
a tiger to well, some of you,

653
00:53:04.400 --> 00:53:10.320
not necessarily you the listeners, but
like if I have a list if

654
00:53:10.840 --> 00:53:15.159
let's say you're out doing something in
your yard today, just say you're raking

655
00:53:15.320 --> 00:53:20.239
leaves. Okay, you're rake and
leaves, and you want to your beloved

656
00:53:20.320 --> 00:53:24.119
pets out there with you, you
know, doing what pets do. Probably

657
00:53:24.159 --> 00:53:28.719
a dog because cats ain't sticking around
for that. But yeah, and every

658
00:53:28.719 --> 00:53:30.719
time you get a pile together,
your dog like blows through it because you're

659
00:53:30.760 --> 00:53:36.199
now dogs. When they when they
kick into a super super speed mode,

660
00:53:36.199 --> 00:53:38.840
man, they could be hilarious.
Right. But right in the middle of

661
00:53:38.880 --> 00:53:45.760
your dog, you know, doing
all that, a giant Siberian tiger comes

662
00:53:45.800 --> 00:53:51.000
out and snatches your dog. What
do you do? What's your game plan

663
00:53:51.119 --> 00:53:54.280
there? Because you don't have you're
not armed to the teeth, although I

664
00:53:54.280 --> 00:54:00.599
suspect some of you when you rake
are But let's say you're not armed.

665
00:54:00.920 --> 00:54:06.239
You're armed with a rake. Giant
Siberian tiger. You have a small dog.

666
00:54:06.360 --> 00:54:09.119
Tiger gets the dog. What do
you do, ross, You have

667
00:54:09.199 --> 00:54:13.679
pets, you love your pets.
Siberian tiger right in front of you.

668
00:54:13.800 --> 00:54:16.480
Boom, got your pet. You
gotta fight it to the death. Really,

669
00:54:17.360 --> 00:54:22.239
the trick is you gotta punch it
in the back of the throat.

670
00:54:22.960 --> 00:54:25.760
I've done this before, have you? Yeah? Oh, well you know

671
00:54:25.800 --> 00:54:29.840
what I then I'm glad we came
to you for expert in Now. It's

672
00:54:29.880 --> 00:54:31.079
dangerous though, because if you do
it wrong, it'll bunch your arm off.

673
00:54:31.079 --> 00:54:36.119
You do it super fast, yeah
yeah, okay, remember we now

674
00:54:36.159 --> 00:54:38.159
when when she was in the coffin
right when in a kill bill and she

675
00:54:38.159 --> 00:54:43.639
had do that like one inch punch. It's the same thing. You put

676
00:54:43.639 --> 00:54:47.239
it in the Siberian tiger's mouth right
before it takes your arm off, boom

677
00:54:47.320 --> 00:54:52.119
in the back of the throat,
and it'll just it'll it'll assassinate the tiger,

678
00:54:52.880 --> 00:54:55.280
even if you're a spry seventy six, says the guy in this story.

679
00:54:55.639 --> 00:55:00.480
Okay, so like a Joe Biden. Yeah, i'd do you feel

680
00:55:00.480 --> 00:55:02.760
that he's gonna be able to shadow
punch because I don't think he's gonna probably

681
00:55:02.800 --> 00:55:07.760
not. Yeah, I don't think. I don't think you're snatching anything out

682
00:55:07.800 --> 00:55:12.400
of a palm if you're Joe Biden. That's all I'm saying. But with

683
00:55:12.480 --> 00:55:15.920
that in mind, the seventy six
year old man who and it says in

684
00:55:15.960 --> 00:55:19.800
the in the story, it sounds
like he recognized that his dog was dead

685
00:55:19.840 --> 00:55:22.360
almost immediately. The tiger just came
out and murdered his dog, and it

686
00:55:22.440 --> 00:55:27.679
was carrying the body away. It's
how it's described. So he he knew

687
00:55:27.679 --> 00:55:32.320
what was up the tiger from the
Immure Tiger Center, or maybe that's the

688
00:55:32.320 --> 00:55:37.760
one commenting. I don't even know
where the tiger came from. It's Russia.

689
00:55:37.800 --> 00:55:42.440
I assume there's tigers run around everywhere. He decided, you know what

690
00:55:42.480 --> 00:55:46.760
I'm gonna do. I'm gonna stalk
the tiger. I'm gonna flip the script

691
00:55:46.800 --> 00:55:51.760
on this dude. So, according
to authorities, the seventy six year old,

692
00:55:51.760 --> 00:55:55.280
after witnessing the tiger kill his dog
and then take the dog with in

693
00:55:55.320 --> 00:56:02.760
his mouth into the woods, wade
a few minutes before he began tracking the

694
00:56:02.800 --> 00:56:08.039
tiger, as a fresh snowfall had
allowed him to follow the animal's movement through

695
00:56:08.039 --> 00:56:14.760
the forest. And the tiger went
deep into the forest. And this seventy

696
00:56:14.800 --> 00:56:20.639
six year old went deep into the
forest. And he's a very apparently he's

697
00:56:20.639 --> 00:56:23.360
a very good tracker. So like
it's a dude who lives out in the

698
00:56:23.360 --> 00:56:29.159
middle of nowhere, right, got
some skills, and he, according to

699
00:56:29.159 --> 00:56:32.360
authorities, was able to follow the
tiger and successfully find where the animal had

700
00:56:32.360 --> 00:56:37.280
been denning. And there when he
showed up, is the lifeless body of

701
00:56:37.320 --> 00:56:42.800
his dog, which he was able
to mourn over for according to authorities,

702
00:56:42.880 --> 00:56:45.800
just a matter of moments before the
tiger came out of the trees and killed

703
00:56:45.800 --> 00:56:52.199
the man. In fact, after
his disappearance was finally noted, search parties

704
00:56:52.239 --> 00:56:57.079
found the man and his dog literally
dead, torn to shreds, laying next

705
00:56:57.119 --> 00:57:02.320
to each other. He had not
armed himself elf, and it's simply in

706
00:57:02.360 --> 00:57:06.039
a state of emotion, went to
go track down his dog. Man,

707
00:57:07.760 --> 00:57:09.199
Yeah, you gotta you gotta bring
a peace I mean, probably a pretty

708
00:57:09.199 --> 00:57:12.480
big one. And you can't fight
on his own ground, right, like

709
00:57:12.559 --> 00:57:16.400
you're going into the den of the
tiger. No, look, did Rambo

710
00:57:16.599 --> 00:57:22.159
fight on their terms or did he
fight on his in the woods of Washington.

711
00:57:22.920 --> 00:57:25.320
I would argue he fought on he
fought on his Hence all of the

712
00:57:25.440 --> 00:57:30.480
you know, the various booby tracks, except for later when he actually went

713
00:57:30.480 --> 00:57:37.440
into the sheriff's department. Yeah well
right, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah,

714
00:57:37.480 --> 00:57:39.920
and then those tunnels. Don't even
get me started on those tunnels,

715
00:57:39.920 --> 00:57:44.880
man. Yeah. So if if
something, if one of your pets get

716
00:57:44.920 --> 00:57:47.840
statched by a giants. A Siberian
tigers are I think the biggest tigers too.

717
00:57:49.760 --> 00:57:53.039
So if a Siberian tiger gets your
beloved pet, I'm sorry, I

718
00:57:53.039 --> 00:57:58.280
don't wish that upon. You probably
going to have to let that go.

719
00:57:58.480 --> 00:58:04.679
If you don't have a firearm,
so you know, new a news you

720
00:58:04.719 --> 00:58:09.159
can use, or you have to
learn to shadow punch or whatever Ross said.

721
00:58:09.280 --> 00:58:16.119
So those are your options. Craziness
man, all right? Seven forty

722
00:58:16.119 --> 00:58:21.039
four raced Agic. Yeah, man, I look, you got pets,

723
00:58:21.079 --> 00:58:24.880
You got pets you like. Oh
yeah, if a giant tiger and you're

724
00:58:24.880 --> 00:58:30.280
out in the yard raking leaves and
a tiger comes out because it's out of

725
00:58:30.360 --> 00:58:35.880
the the big cat rescue place down
the road and it steals your small dog.

726
00:58:36.920 --> 00:58:40.719
You don't follow it right unarmed out
I can have it, take it

727
00:58:40.760 --> 00:58:45.440
away. You're not happy about it, but no, you're going to have

728
00:58:45.440 --> 00:58:49.800
a story to tell at work though, So there's that this guy will never

729
00:58:49.840 --> 00:58:52.280
tell a story because he followed it
miles into the woods unarmed, and the

730
00:58:52.280 --> 00:58:58.119
tiger's like, oh dessert. So
yeah, the story would be my wife

731
00:58:58.159 --> 00:59:01.800
telling the story how the tiger took
the dog and I told Ray to go

732
00:59:02.639 --> 00:59:07.360
get the dog and Rays up not
coming back, and it's her really telling

733
00:59:07.360 --> 00:59:10.280
the story. So let's get straight
up. You can take a tiger,

734
00:59:10.400 --> 00:59:13.960
right. Do you remember that story
a few months ago where they were asking

735
00:59:14.119 --> 00:59:17.679
dudes like what animals they think they
could fight and win? And like and

736
00:59:17.800 --> 00:59:21.960
like eight percent of guys, what
was it ross? Eight percent? So

737
00:59:22.079 --> 00:59:24.519
they could fight an elephant or something
and win. I think that was my

738
00:59:24.599 --> 00:59:29.719
favorite. They were just dumb.
Numbers abounded, But I was like,

739
00:59:29.760 --> 00:59:32.000
maybe I could take like a peacock
or something. Yeah, a peacock.

740
00:59:32.480 --> 00:59:37.199
People nasty? Yeah, no,
they're nasty, man there, yeah they

741
00:59:37.239 --> 00:59:40.519
are? They are you ever have
you ever seen a peacock? I didn't

742
00:59:40.519 --> 00:59:45.679
realize how nasty they were until I
was in Houston, because they got them

743
00:59:45.760 --> 00:59:47.880
run around neighborhoods in Houston and this
thing's in the road and I'm like,

744
00:59:47.920 --> 00:59:51.800
ah, I'm just gonna go wave
my fist at this peacock. That peacock

745
00:59:51.960 --> 00:59:53.960
was not having it. I'm like, you know what, I'll come back

746
00:59:53.960 --> 00:59:57.840
here with a with a something,
So you better get out of here,

747
00:59:57.880 --> 01:00:01.280
mister peacocky. Yeah, yeah,
exactly. Yeah. I never really thought

748
01:00:01.280 --> 01:00:04.480
about it. If I what I
could take, Well, why would I?

749
01:00:04.519 --> 01:00:09.079
Anyway, It's just kind of because
what if because sometimes tigers get out

750
01:00:09.079 --> 01:00:13.880
of their enclosures. Man, they
do, they do sometimes, But didn't

751
01:00:13.880 --> 01:00:17.400
they form the other direction around?
They had a lion running around some city,

752
01:00:17.440 --> 01:00:22.840
some town in the US the other
day for like two days. I'll

753
01:00:22.840 --> 01:00:23.840
have to figure we did the story. I don't remember where it was.

754
01:00:23.920 --> 01:00:27.719
So, yeah, you just look
head on a swivel. Prepare for anything.

755
01:00:27.760 --> 01:00:30.719
That's all I'm saying, Just like
you tell people to do. From

756
01:00:30.719 --> 01:00:34.400
a weather perspective, Yeah I do. Yeah, there's not much. Yeah,

757
01:00:34.400 --> 01:00:37.840
I hope that everybody prepped for the
cold. I've got this little kind

758
01:00:37.840 --> 01:00:42.159
of area of clouds now that's breaking
up already. They were a little a

759
01:00:42.159 --> 01:00:45.440
little cloud around the Triad Greensboro and
up toward Danville in southern Virginia. Now

760
01:00:45.760 --> 01:00:51.000
that's a moved north of the Triangle
and moving out toward Rocky Mountain Greenville,

761
01:00:51.039 --> 01:00:54.119
and it's clear though from most of
the rest of the state. That's all

762
01:00:54.159 --> 01:00:58.679
moving east and cold, relatively cold
though for the time of year. It's

763
01:00:58.679 --> 01:01:01.599
not terrible. Mostly upper twenties,
low thirties this morning, and lots of

764
01:01:01.599 --> 01:01:05.760
sun this afternoon. Already seeing that
now low to mid fifties tonight, a

765
01:01:05.760 --> 01:01:08.920
little milder, low to mid thirties, and then the warm up we'll continue

766
01:01:08.960 --> 01:01:15.039
tomorrow as we get near sixty partial
sunshine. Saturday, great day, just

767
01:01:15.079 --> 01:01:16.639
a great day. If you're one
of those, let me go cut down

768
01:01:16.679 --> 01:01:19.840
my Christmas tree, or go to
the store and get a real tree,

769
01:01:19.920 --> 01:01:22.239
or go to the store and get
a fake trees outside. Who's doing tree?

770
01:01:22.280 --> 01:01:25.360
I don't know. I don't know. I criticize early, but now

771
01:01:25.360 --> 01:01:30.480
you're way too late. Well I
was done at the beginning of November,

772
01:01:30.559 --> 01:01:31.960
so let's time. You don't If
you don't have a tree now, then

773
01:01:32.000 --> 01:01:35.920
you have to wait till next Christmas. Those are the rules. Well,

774
01:01:35.960 --> 01:01:37.719
I know people that they wait till
like Christmas Eve, and it's like,

775
01:01:37.760 --> 01:01:42.559
why go through all that work for
just a couple of days. I don't

776
01:01:42.599 --> 01:01:45.639
get it. But anyway, Saturday's
gonna beautiful, good golf day. Maybe

777
01:01:45.679 --> 01:01:50.079
how about that every day? Yes, every day it's good golf even if

778
01:01:50.119 --> 01:01:53.679
it's snow and it is it is
before the rain and showers, maybe even

779
01:01:53.719 --> 01:01:58.840
some thunderstorm Sunday, maybe get close
to seventy degrees before the next cool down

780
01:01:58.880 --> 01:02:01.599
that comes in early next week make
a sunshine return, So it's gonna be

781
01:02:01.679 --> 01:02:06.320
dry, getting milder. Saturday easily
the best day of the weekend the wet

782
01:02:06.360 --> 01:02:08.719
weather we'll get in here on Sunday
Sunday night, and then I'll get colder

783
01:02:08.760 --> 01:02:13.639
again, but dry and sunny as
the next airy high pressures in most of

784
01:02:13.719 --> 01:02:17.000
next week actually looks pretty good,
so we should be pretty decent as we

785
01:02:17.039 --> 01:02:21.039
get into the week leading up to
is that next week the week no a

786
01:02:21.119 --> 01:02:23.480
couple of weeks leading up to Christmas, so we should be a pretty good

787
01:02:23.480 --> 01:02:27.039
shape there after the rain and thunderstort
might get some heavy rain, which we

788
01:02:27.079 --> 01:02:29.840
do need. We'll see. The
guidance kind of been back and forth on

789
01:02:29.880 --> 01:02:32.079
the okay, all right, well, well you appreciate it. And if

790
01:02:32.079 --> 01:02:36.599
it's gonna be if you if you
bring up freezing rain and I hear those

791
01:02:36.599 --> 01:02:39.880
words out of your mouth, no, we're gonna have all right, we're

792
01:02:39.880 --> 01:02:45.079
gonna add I just say you might
see a tiger. I'm just you never

793
01:02:45.159 --> 01:02:47.039
know, all right, soby eight, thank you, sir, appreciated.

794
01:02:47.639 --> 01:02:52.440
Yeah, stage, it's a big
dude, Ross like he could probably maybe

795
01:02:52.440 --> 01:02:55.000
not a tiger, but I feel
like he could probably go you know,

796
01:02:55.119 --> 01:02:59.239
middle class. But yeah, these
are the eight percent of guys saying they

797
01:02:59.239 --> 01:03:01.079
can fight an ell of like,
I want to start a reality show and

798
01:03:01.119 --> 01:03:06.719
you all come on and if you
win, I will I'll admit I was

799
01:03:06.760 --> 01:03:08.480
wrong, all right, speaking to
people who are wrong. What is Jeff

800
01:03:08.559 --> 01:03:13.679
Jackson proposing? Hang on for this. He is on ninety four to five

801
01:03:14.320 --> 01:03:20.119
PTI in the Triad and one six
one FM Talk in the Triangle. All

802
01:03:20.199 --> 01:03:22.440
right, before I play this,
because it is two minutes and I'm going

803
01:03:22.480 --> 01:03:28.440
to play the whole thing because my
brain hurt. I saw it. I

804
01:03:28.440 --> 01:03:30.880
had sent it to Ross. So
the first time you heard it is when

805
01:03:30.880 --> 01:03:37.360
you just dubbed it in correct,
Yes, are you inspired? I am

806
01:03:37.400 --> 01:03:40.840
not. Oh oh wow, okay, all right. So Congressman Jeff Jackson

807
01:03:42.239 --> 01:03:46.760
wants to tackle what admittedly is a
problem, and that is that everything's more

808
01:03:46.800 --> 01:03:52.639
expensive, and that includes obviously housing. The problem is unless we're having an

809
01:03:52.679 --> 01:03:59.960
honest debate about all of the factors, I'm getting pretty sick of people trying

810
01:04:00.159 --> 01:04:04.400
to make it once again just like
Biden did, where the only reason anything's

811
01:04:04.480 --> 01:04:10.400
expensive is because evil, greedy corporations, when in reality, it's much more

812
01:04:10.400 --> 01:04:15.400
complex than that. However, if
you got some company that comes in and

813
01:04:15.400 --> 01:04:20.079
buys up thirty percent of all the
rental properties, the rate at which they

814
01:04:20.159 --> 01:04:25.400
set rent will be impactful across the
spectrum. And he's talking about Blackrock,

815
01:04:25.480 --> 01:04:31.400
right, No, he would say
he's probably not because they're such big donors.

816
01:04:31.480 --> 01:04:34.000
I think the Zillo's the one they
like to throw out, and then

817
01:04:34.039 --> 01:04:40.280
a couple others. Oh and the
rich GOP donor dude out in Vegas.

818
01:04:40.360 --> 01:04:43.679
Addelson's company used to do it too. Those are the ones they tend to

819
01:04:43.719 --> 01:04:47.480
demonize. But to your point,
Blackrock is one of the largest, if

820
01:04:47.519 --> 01:04:51.679
not the largest, I believe so. But no, he'd probably tell you

821
01:04:51.719 --> 01:04:56.519
he's not. All right, So
let's get into this. The reason that

822
01:04:56.559 --> 01:05:00.719
housing is so expensive is that there
aren't enough houses and a big rea Okay,

823
01:05:00.920 --> 01:05:03.599
I just pause there. Yeah,
it's almost as if he understands supply

824
01:05:03.679 --> 01:05:10.800
and demand. Luckily, the Hayes
Global Initiative is building houses right now,

825
01:05:10.840 --> 01:05:15.920
sir, five of them for what
was it, one hundred mill So it's

826
01:05:15.920 --> 01:05:19.719
a good deal. Yeah, sounds
good. One of the Haiti houses that

827
01:05:19.760 --> 01:05:24.840
the Clinton Foundation built, I think
is uninhabitable because of asbestos. Now,

828
01:05:25.480 --> 01:05:31.000
and this thing was not built in
the fifties. Where would you find asbestos

829
01:05:31.559 --> 01:05:34.159
and I and what capacity would you
use that? Well, anyway, I

830
01:05:34.199 --> 01:05:38.079
don't even have time to get into
that. So let's so Jeff Jackson wants

831
01:05:38.119 --> 01:05:44.039
you to know that there's not enough
houses. Okay, let's get some solutions,

832
01:05:44.039 --> 01:05:46.880
shall we. And there aren't enough
houses is because there aren't enough duplexes,

833
01:05:47.119 --> 01:05:50.599
triplexes, and town hops. And
the reason there aren't enough of those

834
01:05:51.159 --> 01:05:56.199
is because most cities made them largely
we go to build. That's yes,

835
01:05:56.440 --> 01:06:00.000
yes, that is by the way, that is absolutely correct. That cities,

836
01:06:00.400 --> 01:06:04.440
not all cities, but many cities
are reevaluating what is and isn't allowed,

837
01:06:04.480 --> 01:06:08.440
and some cities are going to the
opposite. I remember when I was

838
01:06:08.480 --> 01:06:14.360
in Ireland ten years ago, in
Galway and a few other places, they

839
01:06:14.400 --> 01:06:20.760
made it illegal to build single family
disconnected housing within the interior part of the

840
01:06:20.800 --> 01:06:27.119
city. You can only build multifamily
housing. So yeah, you know cities.

841
01:06:27.880 --> 01:06:30.320
Cities do contribute to this with zoning, but there's a lot of reasons

842
01:06:30.320 --> 01:06:36.159
why some things are zoned. Multifamily
housing has much more impact on street usage,

843
01:06:36.280 --> 01:06:42.719
parking, wide, variety of things, so that's why sometimes they didn't

844
01:06:42.760 --> 01:06:45.320
want it. It's kept the supply
of housing woe while demand has been high,

845
01:06:45.400 --> 01:06:48.440
so we get higher prices. Lots
of cities are trying to fix this

846
01:06:48.559 --> 01:06:54.199
bi legalizing duplexes and triplexes, but
that will take years. Here's why I'm

847
01:06:54.199 --> 01:06:58.119
telling you this. What's making this
problem even worse is a small handful of

848
01:06:58.199 --> 01:07:00.679
large companies that are saying, what
we're going to do. We're going to

849
01:07:00.800 --> 01:07:05.440
buy up as many houses as we
can out of a very limited supply and

850
01:07:05.480 --> 01:07:10.239
then rent them. They're not just
profiting from a shortage of housing, they're

851
01:07:10.280 --> 01:07:15.480
making the shortage worse. The more
well kind of, I mean. The

852
01:07:15.519 --> 01:07:19.199
fact is that generally those companies are
coming in and they're not grossly over pain.

853
01:07:20.360 --> 01:07:25.440
So if individuals had, you know, entered an offer, then they

854
01:07:25.480 --> 01:07:28.559
too might acquire that house. Or
they can take a small number of houses

855
01:07:28.559 --> 01:07:30.960
for sale and make it even smaller. The more they can charge for rent,

856
01:07:31.199 --> 01:07:34.360
and the more expensive the remaining houses
will be. This is a bigger

857
01:07:34.360 --> 01:07:38.239
problem than you might think. In
Charlotte, where I'm from, we're talking

858
01:07:38.280 --> 01:07:42.119
about roughly twenty percent of all the
houses getting bought, but in neighborhoods with

859
01:07:42.199 --> 01:07:45.119
lower income starter homes, it can
be half the houses that are getting bought.

860
01:07:45.159 --> 01:07:48.159
Here's how this problem looks across my
state. But we're seeing this in

861
01:07:48.199 --> 01:07:53.320
cities across the country. Here's the
growth we've seen in large corporations buying houses

862
01:07:53.519 --> 01:07:59.039
Solutionuanta and Memphis and Birmingham. It's
the places that are growing the fastest that

863
01:07:59.119 --> 01:08:02.199
have the worst shortage of housing.
So that's where it's the most profitable to

864
01:08:02.360 --> 01:08:04.800
buy up the women. It's all
right, he's got a Babylon. Here's

865
01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:08.280
what he wants to do. If
you're a corporation who buys a house,

866
01:08:08.679 --> 01:08:13.840
he wants to charge you ten thousand
dollars tax extra kind of. In fact,

867
01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:17.880
I'll get into more of this after
our guests, good morning and happy

868
01:08:17.920 --> 01:08:28.520
Thursday. It is our number three
here on the CaCO Day radio program.

869
01:08:29.119 --> 01:08:33.359
And we we had going back to
last week. You know, we always

870
01:08:33.359 --> 01:08:42.680
try to figure out the trifecta there
of celebrity deaths, and it was a

871
01:08:42.920 --> 01:08:46.199
it was a pretty crazy time on
social media, you know, hashtag rest

872
01:08:46.359 --> 01:08:55.800
in Urine obviously attached itself to our
former secretary of state. We had Sandra

873
01:08:55.840 --> 01:08:59.640
Dale O'Connor, the first woman on
the Supreme Court and a Reagan appointee.

874
01:09:00.159 --> 01:09:03.119
There was some in the moon bat's
not a big fan of her. And

875
01:09:04.520 --> 01:09:09.760
there's one other and I find it
very interesting. I'm going to start with

876
01:09:09.800 --> 01:09:16.560
our guest on this particular topic because
as political, as political as you think,

877
01:09:16.600 --> 01:09:23.479
and obviously they served in governmental capacities
as Sandra Day O'Connor was, or

878
01:09:24.720 --> 01:09:29.000
you know, the near one hundred
year old former secretary of State who's responsible

879
01:09:29.039 --> 01:09:32.520
for I guess every bad thing that's
ever happened ever. Ever, Henry Kissinger,

880
01:09:34.319 --> 01:09:42.800
arguably from a direct action influence,
funding activist groups and everything under the

881
01:09:42.840 --> 01:09:50.600
sun. Norman Lear might be among
one of the most politically active in Hollywood,

882
01:09:51.399 --> 01:09:56.880
and you see at evidence within shows
you may not realize that he funded

883
01:09:56.920 --> 01:10:01.000
like organizations with the express intent of
pushing back on the moral majority thing.

884
01:10:02.720 --> 01:10:09.119
And there's there there are groups to
this day that flourish due to the immense

885
01:10:09.199 --> 01:10:14.199
fortunes that he was able to throw
there. And you know, that's where

886
01:10:14.199 --> 01:10:15.960
you get into the world of entertainment, and I think it inspires a lot

887
01:10:15.960 --> 01:10:20.039
of the conversations we have these days. Yet most people, if you asked

888
01:10:20.039 --> 01:10:23.880
who you know, who are the
big moonbats in Hollywood? Who would you

889
01:10:23.920 --> 01:10:28.479
say? Rob Reiner? Who who
was? Him? And Norman Lear were

890
01:10:28.840 --> 01:10:34.840
thick as thieves? Man? Uh? What's uh? What's Kathy Griffith,

891
01:10:36.039 --> 01:10:42.000
Deborah Messing? Robert de Niro who
looks insane every time he's had an Awards

892
01:10:42.039 --> 01:10:46.439
show. But in reality, Norman
Lear, less words and more monetarily,

893
01:10:47.279 --> 01:10:50.640
was much more active and in what
he did. And that's why we're going

894
01:10:50.720 --> 01:10:54.399
to welcome in Stephen Ken, who
I left on hold now for two extra

895
01:10:54.399 --> 01:10:57.560
minutes. I apologize, but I
needed to set this up. He's a

896
01:10:57.560 --> 01:11:00.800
writer for Bounding into Comics, also
The Blaze. He's got a piece that

897
01:11:00.800 --> 01:11:02.079
we're going to get into about Disney. How are you doing this morning,

898
01:11:02.119 --> 01:11:06.720
sir? Hey doing doing all right. This morning, I Ross and I

899
01:11:06.800 --> 01:11:10.760
were talking off the air Stephen,
and I think it's one hundred percent.

900
01:11:10.880 --> 01:11:14.960
Social media has got to be to
blame here. But if Robert de Niro

901
01:11:15.119 --> 01:11:18.439
may be obnoxious and his TDS is
off the charts, even at award shows

902
01:11:18.479 --> 01:11:21.439
like the Gotham Awards, which I
would think of your de Niro status,

903
01:11:21.479 --> 01:11:26.359
you wouldn't attend something like that.
But I think he likes the platforms.

904
01:11:26.359 --> 01:11:30.159
But in reality, if you want
to talk about somebody using the Hollywood apparatus

905
01:11:30.880 --> 01:11:38.800
to influence political narratives or progressive thought
or whatever it may be, Norman Lear

906
01:11:39.159 --> 01:11:44.159
is an og man. Yeah,
Norman Lear takes these things to the next

907
01:11:44.239 --> 01:11:45.840
level. I don't want to start
off by saying that, you know,

908
01:11:45.920 --> 01:11:50.640
he comes from a time period where
I think America had very different sort of

909
01:11:50.960 --> 01:11:55.319
social problems than it does now.
This is the guy who is behind all

910
01:11:55.359 --> 01:12:00.640
in the Family mod good Times,
the Jeffersons. You know, I think

911
01:12:00.800 --> 01:12:05.760
early on in Hollywood tackling sort of
a post segregation society, bringing black and

912
01:12:05.800 --> 01:12:10.760
white Americans together and you know,
trying to help everybody see the best and

913
01:12:10.800 --> 01:12:15.319
the humanity and one another. But
over the course of Norman Lear's time in

914
01:12:15.319 --> 01:12:24.239
Hollywood. He poured his fortune into
foundations and nonprofit organizations as well as you

915
01:12:24.279 --> 01:12:30.720
know, projects through the University of
Southern California, to basically bake scripts and

916
01:12:30.000 --> 01:12:36.359
show and movie ideas that advance very
particular narratives all throughout Hollywood, to get

917
01:12:36.479 --> 01:12:44.439
Hollywood promoting the same singular message of
progressivism and big government that we see tearing

918
01:12:44.479 --> 01:12:47.199
apart our country today. Yeah,
and let me say this, I don't

919
01:12:47.199 --> 01:12:53.079
regret if somebody doesn't. I don't
agree with somebody, but they're passionate enough

920
01:12:53.119 --> 01:12:56.520
that they're willing to literally spend their
fortune to get it out there. That's

921
01:12:56.520 --> 01:13:00.399
not my beef because them doing I'm
able to make that separation. You remember

922
01:13:00.479 --> 01:13:04.800
obviously the Chick fil A Charitable Foundation
versus Chick fil A corporate right, And

923
01:13:04.840 --> 01:13:11.600
it's this idea that you know,
and they're not here to insult customer base,

924
01:13:11.800 --> 01:13:15.560
but there's going to be things on
the side that they do feel strongly

925
01:13:15.680 --> 01:13:17.359
enough and they and that's you know, that's what they go ahead and do.

926
01:13:17.439 --> 01:13:21.760
With Norman Lear. The difference is
compared to let's say Disney and the

927
01:13:21.800 --> 01:13:27.920
whole Hey, let's bake progressivism into
all of our offerings. Norman lear was.

928
01:13:28.159 --> 01:13:33.760
He also produced wildly successful shows that
were I mean just you mentioned a

929
01:13:33.800 --> 01:13:36.920
few of them. The list is
long, and movies I mean he was,

930
01:13:38.159 --> 01:13:41.399
He produced, He was one of
the producers on Prince's Bride, which

931
01:13:41.399 --> 01:13:45.600
we often quote here on this show. And so he was able to balance

932
01:13:45.720 --> 01:13:49.319
what it seems that many of many
of the Hollywood companies aren't these days,

933
01:13:49.680 --> 01:13:55.920
and that is being extremely politically active
and even baking it into the product,

934
01:13:56.439 --> 01:14:01.000
but still entertaining people. So why
is that so hard when it looks like

935
01:14:01.039 --> 01:14:06.159
he was able to do it so
effortlessly, effortlessly, you know, I

936
01:14:06.239 --> 01:14:09.720
just I think that he comes from
a different time period, you know,

937
01:14:09.720 --> 01:14:14.520
I think about just the character of
like Archie Bunker and sort of how this

938
01:14:14.640 --> 01:14:20.000
is sort of an archetypal conservative,
white working class patriarch and a situation where

939
01:14:20.000 --> 01:14:25.600
you still enjoy this person. You
see how these people share space. His

940
01:14:25.800 --> 01:14:30.119
characters and all these TV shows like
All in the Family and The Jeffersons and

941
01:14:30.159 --> 01:14:33.600
the like, where these people share
space, get along, they fight,

942
01:14:33.720 --> 01:14:36.279
they argue, but then they make
up at the end of the day and

943
01:14:36.319 --> 01:14:41.199
go home. What we have a
very different, very different kind of environment

944
01:14:41.199 --> 01:14:45.840
today where it is religious in sticks, the divide over politics. It's all

945
01:14:45.880 --> 01:14:50.159
a matter of righteousness. Who's a
good person, who's a bad person based

946
01:14:50.199 --> 01:14:55.920
on opinion. And again I do
think that Norman Lear plays some part of

947
01:14:56.000 --> 01:15:00.399
this. What he has done with
his funding of the Media Impact Project,

948
01:15:00.479 --> 01:15:04.880
the University of Southern California and this
organization called People for the American Way is

949
01:15:04.920 --> 01:15:13.279
to basically work with screenwriters in Hollywood
and get everybody producing similar messages, whether

950
01:15:13.319 --> 01:15:17.479
it be on climate, whether it
be on LGBT issues, you know,

951
01:15:17.600 --> 01:15:25.439
to things like vaccines. There's a
reason that every procedural crime show like CSI

952
01:15:25.760 --> 01:15:29.359
and they're like the X Files and
Law and Order, that they all have

953
01:15:30.039 --> 01:15:35.520
their anti VACS episode. Then they
all end up having their religious extremist episode,

954
01:15:35.600 --> 01:15:38.680
you know, you know what I
mean, Like every Law and Order,

955
01:15:38.680 --> 01:15:44.239
it can kind of be Let me
guess the homegrown terrorist is a veteran,

956
01:15:44.319 --> 01:15:47.920
right because I saw every time,
every time Obama and the Janet Politano.

957
01:15:48.039 --> 01:15:53.039
Yeah. Absolutely, And this is
part of what he has done,

958
01:15:53.640 --> 01:15:58.479
is to green light and fund projects
that then can be copy and pasted all

959
01:15:58.520 --> 01:16:03.640
throughout television. And it's it's why
we see so many derivative lefty stories dominating

960
01:16:03.680 --> 01:16:10.399
television today. The and I was
talking about Disney there, and it is.

961
01:16:10.880 --> 01:16:14.239
Yeah, I mean it is a
different era, I think, with

962
01:16:14.319 --> 01:16:17.640
the ability of your actors, Like
but it's not like actors didn't have a

963
01:16:17.720 --> 01:16:21.399
chance to speak to the public back
in the day. But like you know,

964
01:16:21.600 --> 01:16:26.960
I don't remember any and and perhaps
I'm not old enough, but I

965
01:16:26.960 --> 01:16:32.159
don't remember any of the actors on
many of his more popular shows that used

966
01:16:32.159 --> 01:16:36.600
all of their pr time to crap
all over the source material. And he

967
01:16:36.680 --> 01:16:42.199
also is producing original stuff too,
Like I don't is there some I'm sure

968
01:16:42.199 --> 01:16:46.960
there's some snow white style incidents that
happened because actors have thoughts, but it

969
01:16:47.920 --> 01:16:51.680
you just don't see it this today. And with Norman Lear, I don't

970
01:16:51.720 --> 01:16:55.920
think people understood the scope of what
he was trying to do or and what

971
01:16:55.960 --> 01:16:59.560
he was successful in doing so.
Honestly, it might have just had something

972
01:16:59.600 --> 01:17:02.199
to do with that back then we
were dealing with daily newspapers, and we

973
01:17:02.239 --> 01:17:09.319
were dealing with daily newscasts. When
Sean Penn and John Legend can go on

974
01:17:09.399 --> 01:17:13.760
TV or social media Twitter at any
single time and mouthed off about all the

975
01:17:13.800 --> 01:17:16.840
ways in which they have been victimized
by the world that made them rich.

976
01:17:17.399 --> 01:17:24.079
You're going to hear about people's politics
often and with very little thought. But

977
01:17:24.479 --> 01:17:28.359
maybe it's it's just the difference of
the times. You know, like Hollywood

978
01:17:28.399 --> 01:17:30.560
actors and directors, if they had
something to say, it might have been

979
01:17:31.039 --> 01:17:36.119
running a newspaper in print and then
you never really heard about it. But

980
01:17:36.199 --> 01:17:40.159
now you can't really get away from
this stuff. Well, tweet out a

981
01:17:40.199 --> 01:17:44.279
link to this your piece for the
Blaze the headline. The right needs to

982
01:17:44.319 --> 01:17:48.239
figure out what it really wants from
Disney. Explain the headline and what you're

983
01:17:48.319 --> 01:17:55.159
exploring here. Well, so there's
just another wave of combat going on between

984
01:17:55.760 --> 01:18:00.279
conservatives and the Disney Company, which
you know is somewhat justified. But this

985
01:18:00.720 --> 01:18:05.600
latest flare up came when Elon Musk
did the New York Times deal Book summit

986
01:18:05.680 --> 01:18:10.119
last week and he told Bob Iger, the CEO of Disney, to go

987
01:18:11.439 --> 01:18:16.399
f himself. And this has been
sort of the latest opportunity for conservatives to

988
01:18:16.439 --> 01:18:23.720
go, Okay, let's boycott Disney
because Disney has pulled their advertising from Twitter

989
01:18:24.039 --> 01:18:28.840
or x And so I guess the
idea is that Disney is trying to smother

990
01:18:29.560 --> 01:18:33.920
Elon Musk's Twitter, stifle conservative speech
online, and therefore you're not going to

991
01:18:33.960 --> 01:18:40.920
watch Disney. My honest argument here
is that I'm just a little bit exasperated

992
01:18:41.199 --> 01:18:45.800
with boycott after boycott call. I
have always felt like that's sort of a

993
01:18:45.840 --> 01:18:49.079
far left tactic and conservatives need to
do better. We need to build things,

994
01:18:49.560 --> 01:18:56.359
watch things that we like, not
just engage and retweet campaigns of burning,

995
01:18:57.000 --> 01:19:02.039
burning Nike shoes and unsubscribing from Disney. Plus there are alternatives out there

996
01:19:02.079 --> 01:19:05.840
that I talk a little bit about. Okay, well, and let me

997
01:19:05.840 --> 01:19:10.920
say this just off the front there. When you talk about you use the

998
01:19:11.000 --> 01:19:15.720
terminus a micro protests micro Yeah,
yeah, yeah, But basically I don't

999
01:19:15.760 --> 01:19:19.319
think that a lot of people when
they said enough with Disney, we're going

1000
01:19:19.399 --> 01:19:25.199
back and resubscribing then unsubscribing, I
think it's just I think for a lot

1001
01:19:25.239 --> 01:19:28.000
of people, they just said,
you know what, screw this noise at

1002
01:19:28.000 --> 01:19:30.960
whatever point they did. And I
don't know that they ever came back because

1003
01:19:30.000 --> 01:19:34.039
Disney's subscriber numbers, we know what
those are, and it wasn't like there

1004
01:19:34.039 --> 01:19:39.439
were there's not peaks and valleys.
Do you know what I'm saying it's a

1005
01:19:39.479 --> 01:19:43.960
lot of valleys where they're headed,
which is why they're trying to reformulate their

1006
01:19:43.960 --> 01:19:49.399
digital offering anyway. Yeah, now, they are absolutely responding to consumer distrust

1007
01:19:49.399 --> 01:19:53.960
and outrage that Disney has been running
into over time. But you know,

1008
01:19:54.159 --> 01:19:59.079
I do think that conservatives and you
know, enjoyers of entertainment and media,

1009
01:19:59.560 --> 01:20:03.279
they need to pour their efforts into
showing what they are subscribing to what they

1010
01:20:03.359 --> 01:20:08.640
are watching. There are great alternatives
that are rising out there, The Daily

1011
01:20:08.680 --> 01:20:12.319
Wire run by Ben Shapiro. They
have poured millions of dollars into this new

1012
01:20:12.399 --> 01:20:17.520
venture called vent Key, where they're
actually producing not necessarily conservative kids entertainment and

1013
01:20:17.560 --> 01:20:24.399
cartoons, but kids entertainment and cartoons
that you don't have to check in advance

1014
01:20:24.479 --> 01:20:29.399
to make sure it's not filled with
ideological content. It's just neutral. You've

1015
01:20:29.399 --> 01:20:34.960
got Angel Studios, this awesome studio
that also happened to produce the live action

1016
01:20:35.119 --> 01:20:40.800
movie The Sound of Freedom that they
also produce The Tunnel Twins, a really

1017
01:20:40.880 --> 01:20:46.000
awesome animated series about kids learning about
the virtues of capitalism and free markets and

1018
01:20:46.039 --> 01:20:50.199
free speech. It's a really great
series, and you need to be subscribing

1019
01:20:50.199 --> 01:20:55.960
to these alternatives, not just you
know, screaming at the clouds about the

1020
01:20:56.079 --> 01:21:00.920
latest wokeism from Disney. Yeah,
agree that most people's plan of attack.

1021
01:21:01.279 --> 01:21:04.159
Sure, there are very activist people, and why wouldn't they be inspired.

1022
01:21:04.199 --> 01:21:08.840
I mean, what the left has
proven is that with thirty anonymous Twitter accounts,

1023
01:21:09.279 --> 01:21:14.159
you can get people fired, you
can get people what's the group sleeping

1024
01:21:14.199 --> 01:21:19.039
giants? Right, Look how successful
they were in using bots for all practical

1025
01:21:19.079 --> 01:21:27.359
purposes in some cases or at the
very least the business owners or a corporate

1026
01:21:27.880 --> 01:21:32.079
officer's lack of understanding of how a
social media platform works, where they're just

1027
01:21:32.199 --> 01:21:34.520
scared and they go, look,
I don't want to deal with this.

1028
01:21:34.760 --> 01:21:39.920
They were able to get an All
Star game moved from a city to another

1029
01:21:40.000 --> 01:21:44.079
city over voting, you know,
crackdown on voting rights, and then they

1030
01:21:44.119 --> 01:21:47.960
moved it to a city that has
more restrictive voting laws. And yeah,

1031
01:21:48.039 --> 01:21:51.399
so yeah, I understand why people
are inspired. But I think people for

1032
01:21:51.439 --> 01:21:56.159
the most part, while they may
personally boycott in the sense that I'm not

1033
01:21:56.199 --> 01:22:00.640
buying Miller Lite anymore, and then
they just do it and occasionally poke funny

1034
01:22:00.680 --> 01:22:04.640
meme, Right, they're not in
the activist side of this, and and

1035
01:22:05.520 --> 01:22:11.720
I don't see people coming back and
reevaluating those positions. So with that in

1036
01:22:11.800 --> 01:22:15.079
mind, that person has already done
what they think needed to be done to

1037
01:22:15.119 --> 01:22:19.680
combat what they feel is a company
that doesn't align with them, how do

1038
01:22:19.760 --> 01:22:24.479
you motivate them to do other stuff? Right? Because you would agree that

1039
01:22:24.720 --> 01:22:30.000
Disney when it was firing all cylinders, the new wave, some would say,

1040
01:22:30.000 --> 01:22:33.279
the new wave of cartoon movies,
animated movies like you and I probably

1041
01:22:33.319 --> 01:22:38.960
grew up with. We're about the
same age of like that was peak Disney.

1042
01:22:39.239 --> 01:22:42.960
And I think most people, if
that's the Disney that exists, think

1043
01:22:43.000 --> 01:22:46.079
that the world's a better place with
that. But I don't know how you

1044
01:22:46.119 --> 01:22:49.479
get those people to turn the corner
and start, you know, handcrafting what

1045
01:22:49.520 --> 01:22:54.039
they think Disney should be. How
do you motivate people to do that?

1046
01:22:55.520 --> 01:22:58.960
Well? I, first of all, I think having children in your life

1047
01:22:58.960 --> 01:23:01.239
and you know, build families as
a big part of what motivates you to

1048
01:23:01.279 --> 01:23:05.520
actually want Disney Corporation to be built
right? Right? But you have,

1049
01:23:05.800 --> 01:23:09.239
but you have And I'm sorry I
didn't word it right. It was very

1050
01:23:09.279 --> 01:23:11.960
But what I'm saying is if I
don't want Disney and I want to entertain.

1051
01:23:12.359 --> 01:23:14.239
You know, I got you know, three cat don't have any kids.

1052
01:23:14.239 --> 01:23:17.000
But if I did, I stole
some at the store. Today I

1053
01:23:17.079 --> 01:23:20.880
have a billion options, you know
what I'm saying. Whereas back in my

1054
01:23:21.039 --> 01:23:24.680
day, we had we had the
Disney Movie Club, I don't know,

1055
01:23:24.800 --> 01:23:28.880
so we had all the Disney movies
and those things on vhs were played into

1056
01:23:28.920 --> 01:23:32.520
perpetuity, and we we had a
couple channels that might have had stuff gone

1057
01:23:32.520 --> 01:23:38.119
are those days? So does Disney
need to be rebuilt or or all the

1058
01:23:38.159 --> 01:23:41.880
good things that used to be on
Disney available just from a bunch of different

1059
01:23:41.920 --> 01:23:45.279
sources. Now, well, I
wish I could say that they're available on

1060
01:23:45.319 --> 01:23:49.000
other sources. The problem about the
streaming market, you know, there's there's

1061
01:23:49.039 --> 01:23:53.439
the good and the bad of it. But a lot of Disney products used

1062
01:23:53.479 --> 01:23:57.239
to be on Netflix and available on
Amazon and all the like, so you

1063
01:23:57.279 --> 01:24:02.079
could support an alternative plot and still
watch those shows and movies. But now

1064
01:24:02.399 --> 01:24:08.920
everybody has taken their intellectual property,
their IP back to their native platforms.

1065
01:24:08.960 --> 01:24:13.039
You've got HBO taking all of their
stuff, You've got Paramount taking all of

1066
01:24:13.079 --> 01:24:18.079
their old cartoons and Nickelodeon products over
to their own streaming platforms and Disney doing

1067
01:24:18.079 --> 01:24:23.479
the same, and so no,
you can't really like you have to have

1068
01:24:23.520 --> 01:24:28.119
a subscription to every single platform now
to watch any of their stuff. Well,

1069
01:24:28.119 --> 01:24:30.039
we had to buy all the movies. We had to buy all the

1070
01:24:30.039 --> 01:24:32.119
movies back in the day. So
I mean, yeah, that's been still

1071
01:24:32.119 --> 01:24:34.960
there. I got about a minute, so please go ahead and sum up.

1072
01:24:34.960 --> 01:24:38.239
But I mean to cut off.
I just I think people going to

1073
01:24:38.279 --> 01:24:42.479
be less motivated because they're going to
find things like the Daily Wire or they

1074
01:24:42.560 --> 01:24:46.399
get their own movie collection out or
whatever it is. Thirty seconds. That's

1075
01:24:46.520 --> 01:24:53.319
there are activists Disney. There are
activist Disney shareholders who actually want to try

1076
01:24:53.359 --> 01:24:59.039
and steer Disney Company back towards telling
stories for families and for children. People

1077
01:24:59.039 --> 01:25:01.319
will buy up lots of stocks and
then they will actually show up to Disney's

1078
01:25:01.319 --> 01:25:05.520
annual meetings and they will advocate for
better content. And I kind of feel

1079
01:25:05.520 --> 01:25:11.399
the same way about being a subscriber. If Disney starts making better, more

1080
01:25:11.479 --> 01:25:15.359
virtuous, family friendly content and nobody
is there to see it, then they're

1081
01:25:15.399 --> 01:25:17.560
going to go to the market that
that will listen to them and will watch

1082
01:25:17.600 --> 01:25:21.640
them, which will be the people
who hate family values. I want Disney

1083
01:25:21.640 --> 01:25:26.720
to be better. I want to
return to a golden era when families can

1084
01:25:26.760 --> 01:25:30.960
trust Disney, and that might require
being part of the family. I'm sorry,

1085
01:25:30.000 --> 01:25:32.119
I got like four seconds. I
had a role, thank you very

1086
01:25:32.239 --> 01:25:36.239
much, and we got to go
to have a good one. I don't

1087
01:25:36.279 --> 01:25:39.760
know. I want to retweet.
I'm going to retweet this just because it's

1088
01:25:39.800 --> 01:25:45.319
I'm annoyed two different ways. So
it's a video you got three perfectly,

1089
01:25:47.720 --> 01:25:51.439
Oh would be editor to hit the
right button. I'll just retweet it,

1090
01:25:54.279 --> 01:25:57.680
all right, Ross, you you
had not seen this, so basically you

1091
01:25:57.800 --> 01:26:00.399
have three. I want you to
in your mind before you look at this,

1092
01:26:00.439 --> 01:26:04.760
and once you do, envision what
three progressive baristas look like in your

1093
01:26:04.760 --> 01:26:10.199
mind, Ross, don't click to
it yet, progressive verista in your mind?

1094
01:26:10.239 --> 01:26:13.039
What do you see? There's there's
three of them, and I don't

1095
01:26:13.079 --> 01:26:15.800
know their genders because they don't identify. But what are some characteristics you might

1096
01:26:15.840 --> 01:26:20.079
find? Uh say it? Come
on, think of the first one of

1097
01:26:20.079 --> 01:26:24.960
possit in your head? Week yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, there

1098
01:26:25.000 --> 01:26:30.960
is that anything with the hair and
the hair yes, yeah, yeah,

1099
01:26:31.800 --> 01:26:36.159
probably white. What do you think
they're all wearing on their faces too,

1100
01:26:39.000 --> 01:26:42.720
Is it only pierced up? I
can't tell because they're wearing giant masks.

1101
01:26:43.600 --> 01:26:45.520
Of course. Come on, man, well tis the season? So yeah,

1102
01:26:45.600 --> 01:26:47.640
yeah, absolutely right, Which is
it? Which is? By the

1103
01:26:47.680 --> 01:26:51.199
way, that's fine. I don't
begrudge anybody if they want to wear masks,

1104
01:26:51.520 --> 01:26:54.760
because my beef was never if you
want that, don't want you to

1105
01:26:54.800 --> 01:26:59.359
wear a mask? It was it's
a decision. So, like you know,

1106
01:26:59.359 --> 01:27:00.720
if he goes some I know,
some people get weird, like you

1107
01:27:00.760 --> 01:27:03.279
beieve those guys still wearing a mask. The only people I think that of

1108
01:27:03.359 --> 01:27:08.439
are people driving alone in their cars. Those are the ones that caused me

1109
01:27:08.520 --> 01:27:11.239
to scratchheads. But if you if
look, if you work in an environment

1110
01:27:11.239 --> 01:27:13.840
with customers and food and all that, you want to wear to do your

1111
01:27:13.880 --> 01:27:16.039
thing, don't care. In the
video though, these three have posted up

1112
01:27:16.039 --> 01:27:21.960
in front of the customer restroom,
it's I'm gonna say that what it appears

1113
01:27:23.000 --> 01:27:27.399
to be is a blue haired,
larger white woman. They all look to

1114
01:27:27.399 --> 01:27:30.800
be about college age or slightly older. Probably have their degrees to live with

1115
01:27:30.840 --> 01:27:38.159
the parents because the philosophy thing's not
working out yet. You have a smaller,

1116
01:27:39.239 --> 01:27:44.159
louder. She peers that from a
background perspective, and because I think

1117
01:27:44.159 --> 01:27:47.680
background is important, right, she
appears to be Asian, but I'm unable

1118
01:27:47.720 --> 01:27:54.239
to tell. And why that would
be important is because they're making the bathroom

1119
01:27:54.279 --> 01:28:01.279
denial quite obviously about the fact that
the woman he clearly an elderly Jewish woman.

1120
01:28:01.479 --> 01:28:05.840
And I saw some idiots and community
notes were like they never said Jewish.

1121
01:28:06.479 --> 01:28:11.720
No, but the week going back
to Ross's pradition, the weak barista,

1122
01:28:12.479 --> 01:28:16.359
the guy here kind of I use
that word loosely. He keeps saying

1123
01:28:17.079 --> 01:28:23.439
history didn't start in nineteen forty eight, lady, and I didn't hear her

1124
01:28:23.479 --> 01:28:29.079
bring up any of that. So
Ross, what do you think that reference

1125
01:28:29.159 --> 01:28:31.800
might be? I would think that
would be like Israel, right, yes,

1126
01:28:32.079 --> 01:28:36.039
so like nineteen forty eight. These
people going she they didn't. They

1127
01:28:36.039 --> 01:28:41.079
weren't deny. They were denying it
because anyone can deny anyone, you know,

1128
01:28:42.439 --> 01:28:45.039
access what she And she didn't just
wander off the street. She's a

1129
01:28:45.079 --> 01:28:48.640
patron. They don't even argue with
that that obviously bought something. That argument

1130
01:28:48.680 --> 01:28:55.279
is so stupid though, Let's okay, let's not count nineteen forty eight.

1131
01:28:55.279 --> 01:28:58.000
Who are the indigenous people of that
land? Hey, let me ask you

1132
01:28:58.000 --> 01:29:01.119
another question referring to my previous one. Yes, So in the Bible,

1133
01:29:01.560 --> 01:29:09.000
are there any Jewish people around that
area around the Israel the Dead Sea?

1134
01:29:09.119 --> 01:29:12.479
And then of course maybe one or
two or then he is Jewish people,

1135
01:29:12.680 --> 01:29:18.119
know, you know, I believe, I believe I remember some stuff.

1136
01:29:19.479 --> 01:29:25.560
In fact, I remember some stuff
that involved I don't know, conversations about

1137
01:29:25.640 --> 01:29:32.319
lands allowance and actual physical trackable geographic
features that are referenced both in the Bible

1138
01:29:32.399 --> 01:29:36.000
and easily discernible on a map today. So yes, to answer your question,

1139
01:29:36.079 --> 01:29:39.800
yeah, one or two things.
I don't mean to put unwanted pressure

1140
01:29:39.840 --> 01:29:41.920
on you. Well, I know
you're not a theologian. I'm just saying

1141
01:29:41.920 --> 01:29:44.000
off the top of your head.
So your answer would be yes, with

1142
01:29:44.039 --> 01:29:46.119
the facts you just gave, Yeah, okay, it would be interesting.

1143
01:29:46.279 --> 01:29:51.279
Okay, And I do you remember
do you remember that? That's more Old

1144
01:29:51.319 --> 01:29:56.439
Testament reference? But uh, do
you also remember perhaps one of the ways

1145
01:29:56.439 --> 01:30:00.600
in which they mocked Jesus as quote
king of the Jews? Really? Yeah?

1146
01:30:01.800 --> 01:30:06.159
Where is he born again? Can
we believe this Bethlehem? That's in

1147
01:30:06.319 --> 01:30:12.399
what? That's what in Ohio?
Pennsylvania, Bethel Pia, Bethlehem, Pa.

1148
01:30:12.600 --> 01:30:15.399
Right, that's probably that is.
I think it's a different Bethlehem.

1149
01:30:16.279 --> 01:30:18.520
What, Yeah, I think there
might be. Yeah, this is the

1150
01:30:18.520 --> 01:30:24.760
desert too, I guess. So, man, I can barely keep up.

1151
01:30:24.800 --> 01:30:27.199
And how old is the Bible,
by the way, the Old Testament?

1152
01:30:27.279 --> 01:30:33.640
How many? How far does that
go back? Well in it comes

1153
01:30:33.680 --> 01:30:39.800
down to what you and you understand
periods of time to be right, Okay,

1154
01:30:39.800 --> 01:30:43.520
I would ask you this is it? Was it written before nineteen ninety

1155
01:30:43.560 --> 01:30:45.479
eight? I thought we I thought
that was the year we did not speak

1156
01:30:45.479 --> 01:30:49.640
of. It's a good point,
yeah, check made, I guess.

1157
01:30:50.199 --> 01:30:57.640
Wow, But yes, I believe
it's slightly older. Trying to I think

1158
01:30:57.760 --> 01:31:03.119
King Solomon's older than fifty. I
think he's dead too. So but you

1159
01:31:03.199 --> 01:31:06.479
know, just now we're just talking
versions of the Bible. So yeah,

1160
01:31:06.760 --> 01:31:12.640
but oh, look at this,
apparently there are two Bethlehem's. So good

1161
01:31:12.680 --> 01:31:21.159
on you, dude, good on
you. So the history did start.

1162
01:31:21.479 --> 01:31:26.319
They're openly telling some woman who came
in for it now who knows maybe before

1163
01:31:26.359 --> 01:31:29.319
that she's spit in their face.
There's no reference here to that or anything,

1164
01:31:29.359 --> 01:31:32.720
because they're not even being aggressive with
her other than to stand they're morbidly

1165
01:31:32.760 --> 01:31:39.680
obese bodies and screaming in front of
this woman and and then they're like,

1166
01:31:39.720 --> 01:31:44.199
ah, no, we didn't do
that because she's Jewish. Well, well

1167
01:31:44.319 --> 01:31:45.760
is the reason that she didn't pay
for her bagel? Or something like?

1168
01:31:45.800 --> 01:31:53.520
What's the other thing you're in New
York DELI? Have you stopped to think

1169
01:31:53.520 --> 01:31:58.520
about some of the food you so
that you know people would tend to associate

1170
01:31:58.560 --> 01:32:01.760
with. Right, if you got
a pot of mats of ball's bots of

1171
01:32:01.760 --> 01:32:05.760
ballsuit going and you're also shutting this
one, I don't feel like you understand

1172
01:32:05.800 --> 01:32:11.720
the needs of your customers. But
anyway, we got that out there,

1173
01:32:11.760 --> 01:32:15.800
and I was mention just mentioning before
UH. And then we got a little

1174
01:32:15.840 --> 01:32:17.960
pinch for time that Jeff Jackson audio
I played, here's what he wants to

1175
01:32:17.960 --> 01:32:21.520
do. I'm not going to play
the whole thing again. So the congressman

1176
01:32:21.560 --> 01:32:26.239
is saying that he has he has
proposed a bill. I haven't seen the

1177
01:32:26.239 --> 01:32:30.279
script of it yet or the but
basically to tackle the high cost of living

1178
01:32:30.600 --> 01:32:35.439
and UH and companies buying rental properties, which is a legitimate discussion if you

1179
01:32:35.479 --> 01:32:39.800
want to have it. I don't
you'd have to convince me what government's role

1180
01:32:39.880 --> 01:32:45.720
is. But company, if you're
a company who buys a home that you

1181
01:32:45.800 --> 01:32:53.840
then rent, then you would be
required to pay ten thousand additional dollars.

1182
01:32:54.439 --> 01:32:58.520
But it's not a tax, it's
money that would go into a fund then

1183
01:32:58.680 --> 01:33:04.199
be redirected, redistributed as some would
say to quote low income first time home

1184
01:33:04.239 --> 01:33:13.279
buyers to be their down payment and
not at all to buy votes. Yeah.

1185
01:33:13.520 --> 01:33:15.720
Uh, let me ask you something. So do you and obviously Jeff

1186
01:33:15.760 --> 01:33:23.560
doesn't, But do you understand how
people evaluate a rental property and do you

1187
01:33:23.600 --> 01:33:27.319
also realize that I have I have
friends who own like they own their home

1188
01:33:27.359 --> 01:33:29.640
and then they own one property.
A lot of times it's the house they

1189
01:33:29.720 --> 01:33:31.600
used to have and they kept it
and they rented it. But do you

1190
01:33:31.680 --> 01:33:36.680
know, you know what they do? Sometimes they put it into a uh,

1191
01:33:38.000 --> 01:33:42.880
they put it into an LLC,
right because there's the business aspect,

1192
01:33:42.920 --> 01:33:47.119
there's protections that will provide other things. So now if I buy something for

1193
01:33:47.159 --> 01:33:51.680
two hundred thousand dollars and I'm math
it out, I want to look to

1194
01:33:51.720 --> 01:33:56.920
see if that's going to cash flow. And obviously these corporations are paying cash.

1195
01:33:57.000 --> 01:34:00.000
But I don't know exactly what their
parameters are, but they have an

1196
01:34:00.119 --> 01:34:02.039
number, They have an algorithm saying
we can pay this much because we can

1197
01:34:02.079 --> 01:34:05.840
rent this much, and we can
we can get our money back in this

1198
01:34:05.960 --> 01:34:11.199
period of time. What do you
think happens if something that would have been

1199
01:34:11.239 --> 01:34:15.039
two hundred thousand is now two hundred
and ten thousand for the consumer, for

1200
01:34:15.119 --> 01:34:18.319
the person wanting to rent a property, what do you think happens? They

1201
01:34:18.359 --> 01:34:23.880
bake it in, They add the
cost of it to what they're going to

1202
01:34:23.960 --> 01:34:28.840
charge from a monthly rent perspective.
And if you're concerned that these companies own

1203
01:34:29.039 --> 01:34:33.359
quote twenty to thirty percent of the
rental market, then you just added a

1204
01:34:33.520 --> 01:34:39.000
ten thousand dollars surcharge which will surely
be passed on to the consumer, to

1205
01:34:39.039 --> 01:34:45.159
the renter for a third of the
rental properties in a city. You absolute

1206
01:34:45.399 --> 01:34:49.520
dunce. And it is once again
that failure to understand. I don't even

1207
01:34:49.520 --> 01:34:51.600
know how it would be legal to
do that, but who knows, but

1208
01:34:51.680 --> 01:34:56.800
it would be really stupid. And
I think that's the important takeaway, all

1209
01:34:56.880 --> 01:35:00.880
right, not stupid, ray stagic. He's got Doppler's go lore and yeah

1210
01:35:00.239 --> 01:35:04.000
of other stuff. So yeah,
Doppler ten thousand, and he gets to

1211
01:35:04.000 --> 01:35:09.239
make educated guesses as well. Yes, so they are, they are educated

1212
01:35:09.279 --> 01:35:11.399
guests. Dude, I'm going to
tell you this. I'm sorry, just

1213
01:35:11.399 --> 01:35:15.760
real quick. So I just got
this pitch. I got this pitch from,

1214
01:35:15.880 --> 01:35:17.760
you know, just one of these
agencies that pitches everybody. I think

1215
01:35:17.800 --> 01:35:23.760
the guests. They're pitching as some
meteorologists who hired an agent. But the

1216
01:35:23.800 --> 01:35:26.960
pitch is, hey, here's the
US cities most likely to have a white

1217
01:35:27.039 --> 01:35:29.800
Christmas in twenty twenty three. So
they just they did what you would be

1218
01:35:29.880 --> 01:35:33.319
able to do. They went and
they looked up zip codes to see who

1219
01:35:33.439 --> 01:35:39.560
has the most years with recorded snowfall
on that day. Right, except on

1220
01:35:39.600 --> 01:35:43.159
the list they listed the US cities. They don't know where a lot of

1221
01:35:43.159 --> 01:35:47.239
these cities are because they got the
states wrong. So like Missoula, Minnesota,

1222
01:35:47.800 --> 01:35:55.399
was Provo, Colorado. Oh boy, I mean, who's booking guests

1223
01:35:55.479 --> 01:36:00.840
from this this list? Half of
them are wrong. I won't ask I

1224
01:36:00.840 --> 01:36:05.359
booked him for tomorrow. Oh oh
you wait, no, but tell them

1225
01:36:05.399 --> 01:36:10.279
what tell him our tell them our
stations in Provo, Colorado, and to

1226
01:36:10.359 --> 01:36:15.159
show up and we'll do a live
interview okay, all right today, Yeah,

1227
01:36:15.439 --> 01:36:18.199
I just google it. Come on
over, sir, Yeah, we'll

1228
01:36:18.199 --> 01:36:24.159
see seven. All right. I'm
sorry to I'll just keep going to you

1229
01:36:24.159 --> 01:36:26.800
cut me off anyway, so that's
fine. I just do it in a

1230
01:36:26.840 --> 01:36:30.600
minute, So you got no problem. Cold morning, but we'll get milder

1231
01:36:30.640 --> 01:36:34.000
over the next few days. Going
to be in better shape by the weekend.

1232
01:36:34.039 --> 01:36:38.319
And it looks fifty to fifty rain
one day. The better day is

1233
01:36:38.359 --> 01:36:42.840
going to be Saturday, so expect
milder temperatures after this chilly start. Today,

1234
01:36:43.840 --> 01:36:46.319
we'll get close to the mid fifties
tomorrow, near sixties. Saturday,

1235
01:36:46.319 --> 01:36:49.960
we could be near seventy degrees.
We'll see lots of sunshine and some clouds

1236
01:36:50.000 --> 01:36:54.319
at times, especially tomorrow. Then
we'll get the showers thunderstorms in here on

1237
01:36:54.399 --> 01:36:58.600
Sunday, but still could be up
close to seventy degrees for some of us,

1238
01:36:58.720 --> 01:37:01.680
especially around the Triangle. Now,
I did look between last hour and

1239
01:37:01.680 --> 01:37:06.800
this our on the severe weather assessment. Doesn't look like there's gonna be any

1240
01:37:06.800 --> 01:37:11.720
severe storms. But I would be
shocked if we get some thunder stronger storms

1241
01:37:11.720 --> 01:37:15.000
on Sunday, especially later into Sunday
night. The cooler again ed drier airsotles

1242
01:37:15.039 --> 01:37:17.319
in most of early and middle of
next week. Actually looks pretty good,

1243
01:37:17.359 --> 01:37:21.239
so it should be. What about
Duluth, Maine. What's the main Maine?

1244
01:37:21.680 --> 01:37:26.720
Well, probably about the same as
Green Bay, Minnesota. Oh,

1245
01:37:27.079 --> 01:37:30.880
dude, don't even don't put packer
stuff on. No. Oh, we

1246
01:37:30.000 --> 01:37:33.319
leave our Vikings fans alone. I
just love that the d Luth Maine is

1247
01:37:33.359 --> 01:37:36.720
funny because Duluth Trading Company is in
Maine, and I wonder if that's how

1248
01:37:36.720 --> 01:37:41.000
they got there. So ah whatever, alright, eight forty eight, Thank

1249
01:37:41.039 --> 01:37:45.800
you sir. We'll come back to
Jeff Fellinger's next. Al Right, a

1250
01:37:45.920 --> 01:37:50.000
fifty three bloomberg ing now with the
Jeff Bellinger. Jeff, what's happening?

1251
01:37:51.840 --> 01:37:57.039
Stock market futures are mixed this morning. The S and P futures are up

1252
01:37:57.079 --> 01:38:00.960
twelve. Nasdaq futures are up to
thirty two eight two. I'm sorry watching

1253
01:38:01.000 --> 01:38:05.079
the Dow futures and they've just turned
positive, so they're up five points right

1254
01:38:05.119 --> 01:38:09.760
now. There was a small uptick
last week and the number of workers signing

1255
01:38:09.800 --> 01:38:14.279
up front employment benefits. The Labor
Department counted two hundred and twenty thousand first

1256
01:38:14.319 --> 01:38:17.680
time claims. That was one thousand
more than the prior week, Continuing claims

1257
01:38:17.760 --> 01:38:23.399
went down. Employers were less anxious
to cut their payrolls last month than they

1258
01:38:23.439 --> 01:38:27.920
were in November of last year.
Challenger, Gray and Christmas As companies announced

1259
01:38:27.960 --> 01:38:31.319
plans to cut more than forty five
thousand jobs, but that tally was down

1260
01:38:31.359 --> 01:38:36.960
more than forty percent year over year. Game Stop posted disappointing quarterly results after

1261
01:38:38.000 --> 01:38:43.479
the markets closed yesterday. The video
game retailers fell sales fell short of analyst

1262
01:38:43.560 --> 01:38:48.319
expectations. Meta platforms moving to make
messages on Messenger and Facebook more private and

1263
01:38:48.399 --> 01:38:54.359
secure. End to end encryption of
personal messages will be the default setting on

1264
01:38:54.399 --> 01:38:59.560
the social media platforms. Encryption has
been an option since twenty sixteen, but

1265
01:38:59.720 --> 01:39:03.279
user had to turn it on.
Messages on Instagram will be encrypted as well,

1266
01:39:03.319 --> 01:39:09.039
but that probably won't happen until sometime
next year. In Casey, Comcast

1267
01:39:09.119 --> 01:39:13.079
cable and internet rates will be going
up in twenty twenty four. The nation's

1268
01:39:13.079 --> 01:39:16.800
biggest cable operator, says customers will
be charged about three percent more starting with

1269
01:39:16.880 --> 01:39:23.039
the January billing. Comcast says programming
costs have risen and it has made big

1270
01:39:23.039 --> 01:39:28.600
investments in its broadband network. Other
PayTV providers have recently raised their prices,

1271
01:39:28.840 --> 01:39:32.359
even though the number of subscribers has
stalled or fallen. Casey, all right,

1272
01:39:32.399 --> 01:39:35.119
thank you, Jeff. We'll chat
tomorrow, sir. Okay, sounds

1273
01:39:35.159 --> 01:39:40.319
good. Have a good day.
There you go, Jeff Bellincher Bloomberg News

1274
01:39:40.479 --> 01:39:43.279
joining us Ross. Did you know, by the way that Jeff is actually

1275
01:39:43.279 --> 01:39:46.439
he's not from the northeast, he's
from Provo, Colorado. Well, we

1276
01:39:46.479 --> 01:39:49.439
didn't have time to get into it, so he doesn't talk about it much.

1277
01:39:50.359 --> 01:39:55.319
Oh I just scan in the other
charts. They're all jacked on this.

1278
01:39:55.479 --> 01:39:58.279
That is somebody who doesn't give a
crap, but it is funny.

1279
01:39:58.960 --> 01:40:01.079
All right, A couple quick things
before we get out of here. I

1280
01:40:01.079 --> 01:40:04.239
think this is probably going to be
a Raji didn't go to the gym this

1281
01:40:04.319 --> 01:40:08.640
morning? Right? No gym?
Right? And I know today was a

1282
01:40:08.680 --> 01:40:13.800
rest ding Well, you know what
good for you? And frankly, you

1283
01:40:13.880 --> 01:40:19.880
may have you may have slipped the
news from Washington Post. Exercise may not

1284
01:40:20.000 --> 01:40:24.560
be the king to living longer,
and in fact may be aging you.

1285
01:40:24.840 --> 01:40:29.039
So that's right now. You know
how sometimes stuff's good and then the next

1286
01:40:29.119 --> 01:40:31.680
year there's another study and it's bad. They do this with milk a lot.

1287
01:40:31.760 --> 01:40:42.760
Well, now, exercise that's why
not. New studies from Finland confirm

1288
01:40:42.840 --> 01:40:49.600
that exercise exercise isn't always the recipe
to live longer and healthier if, in

1289
01:40:49.680 --> 01:40:54.920
fact, the researchers found that physical
activity may be just a small part of

1290
01:40:54.920 --> 01:41:00.479
the larger picture and other things like
healthy diet is far more advantageous. But

1291
01:41:00.520 --> 01:41:05.239
they don't stop there, right,
that's fine, make that debate because we

1292
01:41:05.319 --> 01:41:11.720
all know people who don't really exercise
per se but have very fit figures and

1293
01:41:11.800 --> 01:41:15.319
trims, and yeah, it's genetics
to some extent, but also it's what

1294
01:41:15.359 --> 01:41:17.760
you eat. But they go a
step further and saying, in fact,

1295
01:41:17.800 --> 01:41:21.359
it could be of such little value
to many people that you run a greater

1296
01:41:21.479 --> 01:41:28.279
risk of injuring yourself. You know, like you're all the vikings starters or

1297
01:41:28.319 --> 01:41:30.319
something. So if I guess,
if you want to talk your way out

1298
01:41:30.359 --> 01:41:35.640
of the gym, that article can
help you. So you're welcome for that.

1299
01:41:35.960 --> 01:41:40.000
We do that for you. And
finally, we know Australia to be

1300
01:41:40.039 --> 01:41:47.000
a place that has Look, it's
not unclear that Australia's wildlife population is very

1301
01:41:47.079 --> 01:41:51.840
vocal that they don't want you there, which is why that's what like is

1302
01:41:51.880 --> 01:41:56.640
it? What would they say?
There's like a poisoned spider within eight feet

1303
01:41:56.680 --> 01:42:00.640
of every Australian or something, I
can't remember what the stat was. You

1304
01:42:00.680 --> 01:42:04.680
have marsupials that want a Mike Tyson, you, you have all the sharks,

1305
01:42:05.239 --> 01:42:11.159
and now even something as innocent as
seashells on a sea shore could kill

1306
01:42:11.199 --> 01:42:16.079
you. And Australian tea nearly died
after he was collecting seashells. Unfortunately inside

1307
01:42:16.159 --> 01:42:20.399
one seashell. What is a it's
one of the smallest octopuses in the world,

1308
01:42:20.479 --> 01:42:24.600
called a blue ringed octopus, and
it's one of the most poisonous pound

1309
01:42:24.680 --> 01:42:29.560
for pound creatures. And apparently this
hang out inside seashells on the seashore.

1310
01:42:30.239 --> 01:42:34.880
Can we just abey? Can we
just call it good like it's a failed

1311
01:42:34.920 --> 01:42:41.359
experiment and then we just move everyone
out of there? Or what if the

1312
01:42:41.600 --> 01:42:47.119
if the seashells on the seashore are
trying to kill you two, you should

1313
01:42:47.159 --> 01:42:51.920
probably you should look at you should
look at moving just what sucks because there's

1314
01:42:51.920 --> 01:42:56.039
some real beautiful stuff there, but
even the beautiful stuff wants to murder you.

1315
01:42:56.159 --> 01:42:57.000
So you know, there's that
