WEBVTT

1
00:00:08.039 --> 00:00:54.560
Remember remember I remember, Oh,
we gotta do one more of these?

2
00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:59.520
Okay, all right, well whatever, I mean. It's Friday, but

3
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:02.799
it's still a day where you gotta
get up, but you gotta do stuff,

4
00:01:02.840 --> 00:01:06.840
and you gotta work, and you're
all doing that, and it's gonna

5
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:12.120
be a tough show today. But
you know, one of the things,

6
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:22.560
oh hell no, there is not
a bug in the studio this morning that

7
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:27.439
presents itself at exactly six oh eight. So I'm going to spend however long

8
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:34.280
it takes to murder that thing.
Sorry, distracted. It's gonna be a

9
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.120
tough show to other than the bug, because I'm gonna come out victorious.

10
00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:49.040
You know why, because it does
not matter the species. I am superior.

11
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:55.439
I am victorious. And this is
actually a perfect analogy for what,

12
00:01:55.680 --> 00:02:00.200
unfortunately we have to concentrate on today. Well, one of the items we

13
00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:06.640
got crazy hunter Biden and whistleblower stuff. We got Pete Callender coming up at

14
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:15.719
eight oh five. But I want
to talk about a failed society. Now,

15
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:17.520
if you were to think, all
right, what does he mean by

16
00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:27.520
failed society, Venezuelo, that'd be
a good example just under the current regime,

17
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:35.719
and the regime preceding it and the
foreseeable future Cuba, since you know,

18
00:02:40.639 --> 00:02:46.560
Michael exposed, his brother took care
of that, and you know,

19
00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:51.960
fled, fled the island paradise and
now the Chinese are moving in with their

20
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:58.599
base, but a little closer to
home. No, not Roanoke Island.

21
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:00.199
I don't know. That was a
failed society. We don't really know what

22
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:05.879
happened. I want to talk about
the city of wake Forest. Ross ever

23
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:12.759
been to wake Forest? City of
wake Forest, spend some time there.

24
00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:17.319
I am familiar. Yes, this
is a community that at one time was

25
00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:22.840
ravaged by wolves. That's what I
heard, right. Four people send me

26
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:24.800
the story with the same take yesterday. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I

27
00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:28.759
know. So I'm doing that so
you don't get it sent a twenty two

28
00:03:28.800 --> 00:03:37.680
more times and it is now devolved
to the point where the community is collapsing

29
00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:42.840
based on a cat. Yeah,
it's got rabies. I understand that.

30
00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:47.080
But you gotta you gotta pick your
battles people. Now, don't get me

31
00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:52.400
wrong. I'm gonna just rank you
with Carrie. Do you remember when that

32
00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:55.680
fox which didn't even have rabies?
Remember when the fox was on the walking

33
00:03:55.719 --> 00:04:00.400
path and it was like a national
nightmare for the trophy wives of Kerry.

34
00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:09.000
That's actually that's arguably worse for the
murder capital of America. But Ross is

35
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:14.879
annoyed by this. I know,
apparently there was a rabid k it is

36
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.680
deceased, but that's not even the
part I'm concentrated on. In fact,

37
00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:23.279
we just had it in our top
of the hour newscast there it's part of

38
00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:30.759
a cat colony? Is there?
Like? Is there like an outlaw cat

39
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:38.079
quality living in wake Forest? That's
like, that's like a subplot of a

40
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:41.759
Disney movie. I don't even know
what that is. I mean, the

41
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:46.959
fact is, is there a feral
cat colony in any remotely populated area?

42
00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:54.839
Yes, that's a thing, this
one. This one's got a little raby's

43
00:04:54.879 --> 00:05:00.839
going on. I mean, I'm
pretty sure you got to dissolve the city

44
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:05.639
charter at that point. How are
you not able to how are you not

45
00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:11.959
able to handle a cat colony?
I'm not gonna get into detail here,

46
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:17.480
and some of you, aha,
I killed it. Look at that what

47
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:26.240
time is it? Six twelve four
minutes? You sb? I am far

48
00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:32.439
far, far more effective than apparently
the city, Awake Forest or carry in

49
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:39.800
handling my critter business Why are you
so stupid that you would literally land on

50
00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:44.120
the inside of my hand. Maybe
you just gave up. Maybe he's like,

51
00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:46.199
you know what, you're making some
good points here. I'm not even

52
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:54.120
gonna drag this out now. So
some ladies just out on their porch doing,

53
00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:59.519
you know whatever, and this cat
rolls up and I'm sure she looked

54
00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:02.279
at it was like, hey,
how you doing. And the cat's like

55
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:09.160
bar barbarian and just bitter and scratched
her. And she was one of like

56
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:14.199
four people. And now they're talking
about the wake Forest cat colony. It's

57
00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:18.920
just the weirdest news ever. So
Rod, I'm not putting this on you,

58
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:23.439
dude. I'm just going to assume
that if you think you can handle

59
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:27.720
wolves, a cat colony is not
going to be a problem. It's just

60
00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:38.399
it's such a weird thing because and
this sounds horrible, we don't have a

61
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:45.600
lot of feral cat problems in Wyoming. Are you catching what I'm putting down?

62
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:57.839
And it's because there is a general
agreement. And for those of you

63
00:06:57.839 --> 00:07:02.120
who are horrified right now, I
want you to stand something. One of

64
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:16.319
the absolute worst non indigenous species,
if it proliferates in an area especially in

65
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:19.639
a rural area. Wake forest is
not I wouldn't describe it as rule.

66
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:29.560
But let's go to Wyoming for a
moment. One of the most prolific dangerous

67
00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:34.000
in a non indigenous species are cats. And there I mean, look,

68
00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:41.040
they're just cats doing cats stuff.
It's not the personal but especially when you

69
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:47.040
get out west, you deal with
especially across the Midwest into the Western United

70
00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:50.160
States, right up to the foot
of the mountains, because remember this is

71
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:57.199
height. When you get into Wyoming
and the Dakotas and even eastern Colorado,

72
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:01.439
people think it's that that's mountains.
But what people don't realize is until you

73
00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:07.079
get to the base of the mountains, it's actually desert. Look it up.

74
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:13.199
It's referred to as high desert.
And the reason is the lack in

75
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:20.360
many areas of significant high foliage.
So that means that the native species of

76
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:26.480
birds they ground nest. South Dakota
has a huge problem. And don't get

77
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:33.919
me wrong, pheasants or are non
indigenous, but they're big business out in

78
00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:39.240
South Dakota. North Dakota same way. But to the native species, the

79
00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:43.279
grouse, the chuckers, the prairie
chickens, which is an actual thing who

80
00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:54.559
are the most delicious cats are incredibly
horrible because they just run around. They're

81
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:58.159
like, oh, yetsmegs, those
look delicious, and so faraoh cats are

82
00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:09.080
a problems. So they are u
heavily moved to a farm up state and

83
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:16.159
by a majority of the population out
there. So when I hear about some

84
00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:22.360
like Disney like cat colony, I'm
fascinated by the story. And I only

85
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:28.679
have one question. Are the wolves
so smart they don't eat the rabid cats?

86
00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:33.879
Because in that sense, that's incredible
to me. So that's it.

87
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.200
That's where we're starting. And by
the way, all you cat people get

88
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:45.759
ready to send me email. It's
nothing personal. My question is why don't

89
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:52.720
you take in the cat colony open
your own little cat call. I'm not

90
00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:56.440
I'm not encouraging to to hoarde,
but if they're already living outside, what's

91
00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:03.759
up with your yard? Now?
Seriously though, Like, I'm not even

92
00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:07.399
a cat person, but I gotta
be honest, Like my neighbor got a

93
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:13.840
new cat and I saw this thing
outside and it's all like, hey,

94
00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:16.000
I'm a cat, but I'm a
nice cat. And it was doing that

95
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:20.240
thing where it's kind of walking towards
you and it's you know a little like

96
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:24.279
you could tell it's gonna kind of
wrap around your leg. And even though

97
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:30.720
I'm not a cat person, this
thing walks up and I'm like, and

98
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:33.799
I, you know, just out
of like sheer human instinct, I reached

99
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:39.039
down and I petted the cat,
and the cat, you know, did

100
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:41.200
the thing where it rolls over because
it's a coward, and was like a

101
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:46.399
petty And I gotta be honest,
I just realized, I, you know,

102
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:48.000
with that cat first walked up,
it could have had murder. And

103
00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:52.799
it's hard. I didn't know it
didn't. It made a little purn sounds

104
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:56.440
and laid down, And that was
the totality of our interaction. And this

105
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:00.679
poor woman's out on her patio and
she sees a cat and she's like,

106
00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:05.080
ah, you look adorable. The
cat's like Barbara, Barbara, and then

107
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:09.200
you know, fu and then bitter
and scratched her. So you know,

108
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:16.000
be careful out there people. That's
all I'm saying. Uh, if you

109
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:18.159
want to call me, you want
to yell and tell me I'm a cat

110
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:22.840
hater or whatever, to you,
I would say, why don't you adopt

111
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:28.759
all the cat colony? This weird
jets and sharks. Thing this strange,

112
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:35.279
Like I I just to hear that
the cat call. Do they have a

113
00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:41.279
pecking order? Is there is there
a system of leaders? I don't even

114
00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:50.960
know ross was your cat? Your
cat wasn't a Was your cat a pound

115
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.320
cat? Where did you get plastic
eater? I don't even remember. Uh,

116
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.320
somebody Markis was working with had like
a you know, oh a cat

117
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:01.559
that kids were We'll take that one, all right. So your cat wasn't

118
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:05.720
like street cat. I know that
to some extent. The one cat you

119
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:09.360
guys had that was kind of your
neighbor's cat, but we come over to

120
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:11.399
you. He was your neighbor's cap, but he was a little bit of

121
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:15.759
a street cat, right, yeah, like being a side. I got

122
00:12:15.759 --> 00:12:20.000
to assume that he was introduced to
the wake Forest cat colony, if that's

123
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:24.159
even a thing. I heard Kyle
reference it in the news, So I

124
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:30.919
don't The whole thing is not funny
to me. But just like you know,

125
00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:35.240
like there's this hierarchy of cats just
running around and I don't know why

126
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:39.600
it feels Pixar Disney, but it
kind of does. Except for the rabies,

127
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:45.279
right, I don't introduce that in
there, but ah, well,

128
00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:48.720
at least the wolves are smart enough
not to eat them. So all right,

129
00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:50.080
six twenty, we got other stuff
coming up. Like I said,

130
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:56.080
Pete calendar will join us. Uh, there we go. All right.

131
00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:01.919
I thought we had an equipment issue
again on the Caul screener, but doubt's

132
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:05.279
fine. Just had to update the
latest version. So that's good. By

133
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:07.759
the way, you want to feel
a thousand years old? Did you know

134
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:16.360
that today is the anniversary of the
release of Tim Burton's Batman. Do you

135
00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:22.879
remember in nineteen eighty nine, do
you remember how gritty you thought that Batman

136
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:33.159
was when it came out versus Adam
West bat Batman? That seemed dark man,

137
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:41.960
didn't it? In nineteen eighty nine
Tim Burton's Batman, Yes, Michael

138
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:48.360
Keaton came out, and do you
remember how different you thought that Batman was?

139
00:13:50.360 --> 00:13:56.440
I do. I remember back of
the day thinking, and you have

140
00:13:56.480 --> 00:13:58.840
to understand, I'm like nine and
ten when this thing's coming out. But

141
00:14:00.039 --> 00:14:09.320
even I recognize the difference between that
and pow blam Batman pretty crazy because it

142
00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:15.000
was modern and it was adult,
and it was gritty, and I was

143
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:20.919
allowed to watch it. And then
you see the evolution of it because that

144
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:31.000
Batman versus Christopher Nolan Batman seems I
laughed. Now have you watched, by

145
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:33.559
the way, Ross, have you
watched since? Uh? Since then?

146
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:39.120
The it's Batman return, It's Batman
and Robin right, the one that's got

147
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:46.120
Schwartzenegger and Uma Right. Yeah,
mister Freeze, how ridiculous does that look?

148
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:48.759
Now? Have you watched a reason? There's like a group, like

149
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:54.519
a subset of like you know,
Batman fandom that believes that the Joel Schumacher

150
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:58.639
Batman was peak Batman. And they're
not all like joking about it. They're

151
00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:01.080
like, that's that's how Gotham should
be, that's how it should be.

152
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:05.519
Like I'm asking how you feel because
I get that. I get that.

153
00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:09.879
But when you watch that versus the
Batman or the Christopher Nolan stuff. I've

154
00:15:09.919 --> 00:15:11.480
yet to see the Batman I've heard
it's really good. The Pattinson one,

155
00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:13.919
I've heard it's really good. The
Affleck Batman boo. I think he's the

156
00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:16.360
worst Batman. Oh yeah, it's
awful. We don't bring that up.

157
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:20.720
It's like Godfather three on. I
think the Michael Keaton Batman and then what

158
00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:24.679
was the one with Jim Carrey Batman? Forever. Yeah, it was okay,

159
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:28.799
and then it will drifted into that
weird Robin Like you said, who

160
00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:33.480
is Alicia Silverstone? Right? It
was also in that Oh man, that

161
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:37.240
movie was awful. Oh all right, anyway, we'll get into more of

172
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:44.080
Donna, who's holding she's on a
real time. Yes, Donna, what

173
00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:48.159
have I done to irritate you?
On this fine Friday? I wake up

174
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:52.240
and the first thing I hear is
cat bashing? What was it? What

175
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:56.320
was a cat bashing about No,
I'm kidding. I'm kidding. We have

176
00:16:56.039 --> 00:17:03.080
a cat calling up the streets from
here and been all of these. But

177
00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:07.839
what I wanted to say is that
a big part of the problem aren't the

178
00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:11.480
cat, it's the people that own
them and don't get them spade or neutered.

179
00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:14.839
You know, maybe if the cats
weren't a bunch of perves and had

180
00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:18.119
a little self control and weren't having
giant cat or Jesus, wouldn't be a

181
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:22.400
problem. Listen, you cannot heard
cats, Okay, you can't control of

182
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:26.839
the Oh that's not true. I
have heard it many a cat. Well,

183
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:30.599
we do too. We trap them
and we give them to the to

184
00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:37.119
the local dog catcher because our neighborhood
is run by you know, all these

185
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:41.960
feral cats. And you're absolutely right. The terrible for the environment, the

186
00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:47.279
terrible for the birds especially, So
people need to be responsible and get them

187
00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:52.240
fixed. It's not the cat.
The cats are cool, you know,

188
00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:55.839
like ours. She doesn't go out
ever fixed it? You ever fixed a

189
00:17:55.880 --> 00:18:03.000
cat, Donna, because I have
personally yes, oh what do you mean,

190
00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:08.480
not a female cat? I have? Oh yeah, Oh, this

191
00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:12.160
is one of the moments where you're
sounding leg Dwight Shrew. No, I'm

192
00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:15.559
not sound like somebody went down in
like somebody who grew up. I know,

193
00:18:15.680 --> 00:18:18.039
man, but I'm telling you.
We had this conversation a while ago.

194
00:18:18.079 --> 00:18:19.839
You were like, how am I
leg twit? And I'm like,

195
00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:22.240
there's certain times where you are and
right now, like you're talking about his

196
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:26.200
beat fireman mos and and and cows
and us. Okay, you don't at

197
00:18:26.200 --> 00:18:30.799
this very moment. You know what, mister Hayes. We haven't raised beats

198
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:36.359
on the on the family ranch since
around World War two, so I feel

199
00:18:36.359 --> 00:18:40.400
like you're being inaccurate effect World War
two and they were sugar beets, totally

200
00:18:40.400 --> 00:18:45.720
different. Fact. Here's what you
want to do, Donnie. You want

201
00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:48.440
to get a boot. Some people
think a cowboy boot is best, but

202
00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:53.880
I found that the tall, the
tall snow boots work best. Because here's

203
00:18:55.279 --> 00:18:57.640
here's the problem, um, And
I was just telling ross this off the

204
00:18:57.759 --> 00:19:03.839
air. City folk think that if
they don't want a cat or a dog

205
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:08.640
anymore, they can drive out to
a ranch and literally deposit that thing.

206
00:19:10.359 --> 00:19:15.519
And and I'm serious this is this
was a thing that happened, and we

207
00:19:15.599 --> 00:19:18.359
had a population of cats that lived
They lived in the barn. You know,

208
00:19:18.359 --> 00:19:22.920
we had like five or six we
had six We have now five structures

209
00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:26.759
on the property and the cats that
survived in there. There was a source

210
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:30.640
of heat, and we had a
bunch of cats. But if we saw

211
00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:41.319
a male cat and he was packing, we had a procedure and we had

212
00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:45.000
you know, and and because and
if folks are horrified right now, we

213
00:19:45.119 --> 00:19:51.759
cat because we castrated cattle. Yeah, we had we had the bomb,

214
00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:55.640
and we had the disinfectant, and
we would take the cat, hey,

215
00:19:55.680 --> 00:20:00.200
how are you doing, and literally
stick the entirety of the cat, but

216
00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:03.720
its back legs and business in the
boot. That's not even an urban legend.

217
00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:11.480
We would provide the proper medical equipment
to numb the area. I think

218
00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:14.319
I did my first one when I
was twelve, and that was just a

219
00:20:14.440 --> 00:20:18.599
thing you did and then you would
treat it and wrap it and the cat

220
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:22.920
was back to doing, you know, eating whatever. Yeah, maintain the

221
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:27.000
cat population. I don't think wrong
with that. I mean, though there's

222
00:20:27.119 --> 00:20:30.440
some Peter person, there's some pet
person listening right now. He was so

223
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:34.039
mad that this was the thing.
But the alternative is a lot of ranchers,

224
00:20:34.039 --> 00:20:38.160
if they saw a cat, they
just greased the thing. Yeah,

225
00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:41.920
that was I mean, I'm sorry
they took it to a farm up state.

226
00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:45.839
I apologize the big drop off.
Yeah, that's we used to call

227
00:20:45.880 --> 00:20:52.480
it the big drop off. Yeah, that's not cool either. So that's

228
00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:56.680
how we do Oh yeah, because
you're a crude cowboy. I mean,

229
00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:00.799
you know, he could have taken
him into the vet and than that deal.

230
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:03.519
You know that. Don't want people
out here to start booting cats in

231
00:21:03.640 --> 00:21:07.480
the balls, you know what I
mean? Well, look, I would

232
00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:11.119
encourage people if that is something they're
gonna do. One, don't tell anybody

233
00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:15.440
on the radio that's Donna. I
just did that. But two, I

234
00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:22.160
want them to understand that we literally
had topical uh anesthesia, and you know

235
00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:29.039
we had I am so Donna.
I am so upset that now people use

236
00:21:29.160 --> 00:21:34.519
ketamine because we had so much ketamine
growing up that I had no idea you

237
00:21:34.519 --> 00:21:40.720
know this this horse tranquilizer or yeah. But I mean like, I had

238
00:21:40.799 --> 00:21:44.039
no idea that people could take that. I missed out on this whole era.

239
00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:48.559
And now it's the thing that I
could have been rich. Yeah wow,

240
00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:51.160
No, but on that, but
on the cat thing, that was

241
00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:52.759
it. So Donna, let me
help you out here, and in fact,

242
00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:57.319
you make a big announcement. Donna
loves cats. So if you have

243
00:21:57.359 --> 00:22:03.440
a rabid cat population, rop them
off at Donna's house. No breaking.

244
00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:08.799
We should start a charity that helps
for rabies awareness. Yeah, we'll call

245
00:22:08.880 --> 00:22:12.559
it. We'll call it Donna's Kids. You want to do that, We

246
00:22:12.640 --> 00:22:17.079
get that. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, Donna's kiddies. All right,

247
00:22:17.160 --> 00:22:22.000
so I be ready. There's a
whole influx of cats with the foam.

248
00:22:22.839 --> 00:22:26.200
They're very affectionate for a moment.
So you have come over here. You're

249
00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:30.799
gonna have to come over here and
help me boot them. I don't know

250
00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:33.640
how to do it. Donna,
do you have a boot? I do?

251
00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:38.839
Okay, I mean you're halfway there, so I can't do that.

252
00:22:40.519 --> 00:22:45.079
I'm not surprised you'd be surprised.
How easy is all right? All right?

253
00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:48.920
You have lovely Friday? Yeah you
do. You're gonna have a hell

254
00:22:48.960 --> 00:22:52.480
of a weekend. Let me just
tell you, okay, yeah, yeah,

255
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:59.319
yeah, I get some of those
snake pants. Everybody dropped your rabid

256
00:22:59.359 --> 00:23:03.599
cats on his house. She's a
Patriots fan. She deserves it. Oh

257
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:08.559
wait, hold on, what says
it's Friday? And I'm surly what do

258
00:23:08.559 --> 00:23:14.839
you want to do? Yeah,
Rosier been to a grocery store? Yes,

259
00:23:14.880 --> 00:23:18.480
I have. Did you want to
talk to anybody in that grocery store?

260
00:23:19.279 --> 00:23:22.400
Typically, because I'm an introvert,
I try to stay away from people

261
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:25.880
anyway, right, No, no, no you. And I'm going down

262
00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:27.039
the aisle and someone looks at me
and it starts to have a conversation.

263
00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:32.119
I might have a panic attack.
I had some dude. I had some

264
00:23:32.200 --> 00:23:36.480
dude talk to me and damn near
every aisle yesterday and I just want to

265
00:23:36.559 --> 00:23:40.519
be like, can you get something
with a koalai and eat it now?

266
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:42.880
And I felt I actually felt like
a bit of an a hole for that.

267
00:23:44.839 --> 00:23:48.119
But after my conversation with Donna there
with you know, feeling good about

268
00:23:48.200 --> 00:23:52.720
her inspirational acceptance of cats with rabies
that she once dropped off at her house,

269
00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:57.240
I feel like I'm a bit of
a jerk. But also, who

270
00:23:57.240 --> 00:24:02.640
are you people who just want to
talk to everybody in a social setting that's

271
00:24:02.680 --> 00:24:10.400
not meant for like introductions, talk
to me at the front, literally right

272
00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:15.279
in front of the store, in
the produce, in the meat, in

273
00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:18.200
the every and not about grocery stuff. Where he's like, I don't understand

274
00:24:18.240 --> 00:24:25.680
how jello works, which still would
have been inappropriate. It's one of these

275
00:24:25.799 --> 00:24:29.839
days because of this job, people
assume that you're an extrovert. I just's

276
00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:32.960
in my experience, and it's like
for me, the exact it's the exact

277
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:34.640
opposite. So like people will like, you know, come up to you.

278
00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:37.960
Like sometimes there's people that listen to
the show and know and they're like,

279
00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:41.920
oh, I'm just gonna have a
huge conversation. That's mildly different because

280
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:44.720
it's a specific thing. Yeah it
is, but still this guy had no

281
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:47.480
idea who introvert part of me where
I'm like, oh, I just can't.

282
00:24:47.519 --> 00:24:52.720
I can't. Yeah, the thing
where they're like where they reckon you've

283
00:24:52.759 --> 00:24:57.160
done. You've had that thing where
they recognize your voice, right? You

284
00:24:57.240 --> 00:25:00.920
ever had that where they like,
yeah, well it's voice and it's also

285
00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:03.640
the name right right right, somebody
calls you that. So somebody calls me

286
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:07.160
Casey and they hear the voice.
It happens now. To be fair,

287
00:25:07.400 --> 00:25:12.519
I had an event on Tuesday night
for I mentioned this on the show for

288
00:25:14.119 --> 00:25:19.880
Doug Ray, who's one of our
fine marketing partners there in Greensboro. I

289
00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:26.640
worked with Doug for ten years,
right, I just realized Doug is Doug.

290
00:25:26.880 --> 00:25:30.559
Let's see, I was actually thinking
about this. Doug, Jason Bramblett,

291
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:36.519
Marty Hampton. On the Raleigh side, there's like three or four folks

292
00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:41.119
who've literally been with us since day
one. And so Doug got a new,

293
00:25:41.480 --> 00:25:45.640
big, new office. It's amazing
and he goes, hey, man,

294
00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:48.359
since you're gonna be broadcasting Greensboro,
come to the office, some of

295
00:25:48.359 --> 00:25:52.720
our clients will come down. It
was great, and they had like twenty

296
00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:56.039
some people. And one of the
things Doug wanted to do, he said,

297
00:25:56.119 --> 00:26:00.480
let's have a little thing where you
and I are on stage and if

298
00:26:00.480 --> 00:26:03.200
people want to ask questions. Ross, what if I told you you had

299
00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:07.480
to go on stage and answer questions
from twenty people. Not that you dislike

300
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:11.000
the people, but just the setting. How are you feeling about I'd want

301
00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:15.880
to vomit. And I told the
audience and I we did it because it

302
00:26:17.039 --> 00:26:18.720
is what we do. But I
told the audience, I said, just

303
00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:25.599
you all know, I hate public
speaking. I hate it with a passion.

304
00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:30.279
I love any scenario where I'm sitting
in a room alone. Ross is

305
00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:33.720
city did a room alone. That's
our comfort zone. He's got all his

306
00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:38.839
toys. I've got two gatorades in
front of me today. I'm fine,

307
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:45.960
but you know, it changes things. So it's just so weird too because

308
00:26:47.000 --> 00:26:52.440
of what we do. Like people
ask how many how many people are listening

309
00:26:52.559 --> 00:26:56.920
right now at this exact moment that
I'm speaking, and actually in an hour

310
00:26:57.000 --> 00:27:02.200
it'll be the most And I don't
like to think about that number. I

311
00:27:02.359 --> 00:27:04.559
just like, I'm sitting in this
room alone. Ross is sitting in a

312
00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:10.160
room alone. We're just having a
conversation and whoever overhears. Yeah, it's

313
00:27:10.200 --> 00:27:11.960
just such a weird mindset. Mentually, the way for me it works,

314
00:27:12.079 --> 00:27:15.319
and it's always been like this,
even after twenty five years, is who

315
00:27:15.480 --> 00:27:18.960
who are There's there's two people right
now. There's me and you. Oh

316
00:27:19.079 --> 00:27:25.640
there's Kyle and sure yeah yeah yeah
yeah. Mentally, if you if you

317
00:27:25.680 --> 00:27:29.519
think of the other, that's terrified
and then there you know, there's a

318
00:27:29.559 --> 00:27:33.039
colony of feral cats. They lived
on in the lobby. It's crazy,

319
00:27:33.640 --> 00:27:41.319
Yes, Eric, what's up?
Hey, hey about our cat colonies.

320
00:27:41.039 --> 00:27:48.000
Don't forget about the Feral Cats Society. We had them hood and they were

321
00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:52.799
eating our cat food and as they
came over, we warned the neighbors,

322
00:27:52.839 --> 00:27:55.720
Hey, your cats are out here. We're gonna trap them. We're runna

323
00:27:55.720 --> 00:28:00.519
take them to the Feral Cat Society. And they belong to the hold on.

324
00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:03.599
That's not a fairy Oh no,
no, yeah, they're oh yeah,

325
00:28:03.599 --> 00:28:07.960
oh yeah. If they're wandering the
neighborhood, they are Farrell. And

326
00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:12.240
uh so we we took them out, trapped them and uh let you know,

327
00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:15.319
kept them for a day, fed
them, and rerelease them in the

328
00:28:15.319 --> 00:28:19.480
neighborhood. We had seventeen cats over
about a year and a half that we

329
00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:26.759
trapped. Yet how many cats we
have now? Two? Well, the

330
00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:30.279
other ones are reformed. They got
there, they got their crap together or

331
00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:36.880
what Definitely they got their stuff together. We have no cat problem. Farrell

332
00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:41.519
Cat Society and Bob Barker all right, every way to go. Yeah,

333
00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:45.680
I just again, I my definition
of Beryl is not that it's the neighbor's

334
00:28:45.759 --> 00:28:51.839
cats out. Oh yeah, Farrel
is wandering the neighborhood. All right,

335
00:28:52.119 --> 00:28:53.400
A great day, man, thankfu. I love you guys. So you

336
00:28:53.440 --> 00:28:59.119
do a great job. Part well, thank you, sir. Yeah,

337
00:28:59.119 --> 00:29:00.960
I don't know. I guess at
the feral cats was nobody owned them,

338
00:29:02.680 --> 00:29:06.559
did you consider what does the cat's
name Boots? Yeah, but you didn't

339
00:29:06.559 --> 00:29:08.720
consider Boots wasn't a feral cat,
right, No, he would go over

340
00:29:08.759 --> 00:29:11.400
and Chris's porch, Chris would go
to work, he would come over to

341
00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:15.759
our porch and we'd bring him inside. Yeah, that's not a feral cat.

342
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:19.920
Ferrel cat's got an edge man,
dude. One of the funniest things

343
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:26.680
I saw is my neighbor so there, she had a cat that would get

344
00:29:26.799 --> 00:29:30.400
up on her roof because there were
so many trees around the edge, and

345
00:29:30.400 --> 00:29:33.519
the cat to get up on the
roof thinking it was going to catch a

346
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:37.400
bird. And it was a straight
feral cat. And you know those have

347
00:29:37.519 --> 00:29:42.480
a heart traps, right. So, and she's an older woman, so

348
00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:47.200
she's got a guy who comes around
does maintenance and stuff. And I watched

349
00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:49.240
him. I was sitting on my
porch and I watched him up out of

350
00:29:49.279 --> 00:29:53.720
her roof setting this trap. This
this have a heart trap, putting food

351
00:29:53.720 --> 00:29:56.799
in it, the whole thing.
And you know this is it looks like

352
00:29:56.839 --> 00:30:02.640
a cat carrier, except it's a
cage. And I watched this Farrell cat

353
00:30:03.960 --> 00:30:07.440
jump up on I'm sitting on my
patio watching this and I've seen this cat

354
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:12.799
forever never comes on my never comes
on my porch, pointing that out.

355
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:17.759
I see it up on the roof. It gets up on her chimney,

356
00:30:17.880 --> 00:30:22.119
which is its launching point, and
then I see it look down over where

357
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:26.640
the have a heart trap is,
which is live trap, and this cat

358
00:30:26.759 --> 00:30:33.680
man which is a Farrell Street cat, goes in there, keeps half of

359
00:30:33.720 --> 00:30:41.119
its body outside the trap, uses
its paw to literally drag the food,

360
00:30:41.720 --> 00:30:45.759
triggers the little door dropper thing,
but because its body is in there,

361
00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:53.000
it's hunched its backup so it doesn't
slap down on it, grabs the food,

362
00:30:53.160 --> 00:30:59.640
whips it out, pulls it out. That cats. You ain't catching

363
00:30:59.720 --> 00:31:04.160
that cat at And I don't even
mind that cat. I had mad respect

364
00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:11.200
watching that that cat's seeing. That's
you know, that's six tours in Vietnam

365
00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:15.440
cat right there, man. But
the reality is that you know they eat

366
00:31:15.559 --> 00:31:22.160
ground nesting bird eggs. They it's
a problem. And I want to point

367
00:31:22.200 --> 00:31:29.200
out this is one of my neighbors
that also has like six bird feeders and

368
00:31:29.359 --> 00:31:36.160
doesn't understand why she has stupid feral
cats. I've not had a conversation with

369
00:31:36.200 --> 00:31:38.519
her on that front. Nice woman, but I don't feel like that would

370
00:31:38.559 --> 00:31:44.559
go well. Six fitty Friday,
we might actually get into some news.

371
00:31:44.599 --> 00:31:53.079
We'll think about it and do it
next if the show after the show's on

372
00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:59.440
the iHeartRadio app, search case o
day for the podcast on the iHeartRadio app.

373
00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:06.799
So I didn't realize it was a
thing going down yesterday, but apparently

374
00:32:06.799 --> 00:32:09.119
it was a thing going down yesterday
where a bunch of politicians had to let

375
00:32:09.160 --> 00:32:14.319
you know what they're up to.
We're a little ahead of filing stuff.

376
00:32:14.480 --> 00:32:20.640
I mean, we're a way ahead. So with that in mind, the

377
00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:27.839
one that one that surprised me,
I guess maybe it didn't surprise me is

378
00:32:28.319 --> 00:32:37.359
monster truck enthusiast and state auditor Beth
Wood decided to announce she was seeking reelection.

379
00:32:42.799 --> 00:32:47.920
Yep, Beth Wood, who pled
to hit and run after parking her

380
00:32:49.039 --> 00:32:55.400
state owned vehicle on top of some
poor guyst car downtown Raleigh and then leaving

381
00:32:57.200 --> 00:33:05.079
and then the whole thing again,
proving the giant double standard that exists,

382
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:13.759
feels she's earned your vote, and
this is again, this is what is

383
00:33:13.759 --> 00:33:19.519
so crazy, Beth Wood. I've
never had a beef, and to be

384
00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:23.119
honest, I've never really heard other
than when you get around election time because

385
00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:29.799
it matters what letters after your name, YadA, YadA. But it's nobody

386
00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:36.039
really had a problem with beth Wood, even like some of the hardcore Republicans,

387
00:33:36.119 --> 00:33:39.720
like I've never I don't think we've
ever done a scandal where somebody was

388
00:33:39.920 --> 00:33:47.839
alleging very partisan stuff when it came
to beth Wood. But then this thing

389
00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:53.720
happens, and it literally is like
every problem I've ever had when it comes

390
00:33:53.720 --> 00:33:59.720
to politicians ever. But no,
she's running and you know what should probably

391
00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:06.000
win in Incumbency is a powerful tool
and people have very short attention spans.

392
00:34:06.119 --> 00:34:10.280
That's just one of them. It's
the other one to announce she's not running

393
00:34:10.320 --> 00:34:39.480
for reelection. We're going to talk
about when we come back. All right,

394
00:34:39.480 --> 00:34:44.840
good morning, it is seven oh
six. It is Friday, So

395
00:34:45.440 --> 00:34:52.079
prepare yourself for hopefully being a useless
blob, perhaps a bit of a degenerate,

396
00:34:52.119 --> 00:34:54.639
whatever your weekend has in store.
Just know the weather. It's going

397
00:34:54.679 --> 00:35:00.199
to be decent on Sunday. Is
what Race said. By the way way

398
00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:02.320
Ross, You remember that raise out
to like the tenth of next month.

399
00:35:04.639 --> 00:35:07.199
I don't hurt because because I spent
thirty minutes of this morning on the phone

400
00:35:07.239 --> 00:35:12.639
with the Weather channel trying to see
that's what I did between five and five.

401
00:35:13.079 --> 00:35:15.320
Yeah, because they were still running
weather cuts from like yesterday at three

402
00:35:15.400 --> 00:35:20.400
fifteen, I assumed you were putting
more wrestling wrestling dubs in. All right,

403
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:22.599
Well, I feel horrible now,
so actually you maybe I'm bored with

404
00:35:22.639 --> 00:35:28.280
my plan. I want to start
a whisper campaign to convince race co workers

405
00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:34.519
that he somehow is onto bigger and
better things. Right, just like play

406
00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:39.039
dumb and be like, you know, something very subtly suggests that he might

407
00:35:39.079 --> 00:35:45.440
be up interviewing with GMA or something. Is that horrible that I want to

408
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:49.360
start like a strike there? It's
kind of evil. It's funny though,

409
00:35:49.440 --> 00:35:52.599
right, it's funny, but it's
evil. But yeah, you know that

410
00:35:52.679 --> 00:35:53.920
number because he was like, hey, if there's any issues, this call

411
00:35:54.039 --> 00:35:58.679
this number and yeah, they will
get you to the Okay that's when the

412
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:02.079
person really fast. Yeah, how
that worked out? Yeah? I was

413
00:36:02.119 --> 00:36:07.679
on hold really twenty minutes. Uh
huh so because his email was alive.

414
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:10.519
So maybe you should be evil.
That's because I heard raise up talking to

415
00:36:10.599 --> 00:36:15.519
GMA. I shouldn't I've said too
much. Anyway, he's going to be

416
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:21.719
the assistant to the regional manager of
Al Roker, assistant regional assistant to the

417
00:36:22.000 --> 00:36:30.360
to the regional manager, the assistant
resistant to thet I gotta be honest.

418
00:36:30.440 --> 00:36:35.039
I remember when um, when I
came to North Carolina, I'm like,

419
00:36:35.079 --> 00:36:37.599
all right, I'm here to do
him a thing. And they were insistent

420
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:44.000
that I was assistant program director.
And it literally was a title that I

421
00:36:44.039 --> 00:36:46.639
held for a while that I do
not anymore. And I'm like, I

422
00:36:46.639 --> 00:36:50.880
don't know what this dude does.
I'm here to do on air stuff.

423
00:36:50.920 --> 00:36:53.800
So like, well, you're an
assistant program director. And I realized what

424
00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:58.719
it was. It was whenever the
program director was out of town. I

425
00:36:58.800 --> 00:37:00.800
got the phone call that to me
when the station was off there, and

426
00:37:00.840 --> 00:37:07.960
I'm like, this sucks. So
Dwight should count his blessings. Is I

427
00:37:08.000 --> 00:37:13.800
guess the point that I'm making.
So, by the way, your assistant

428
00:37:13.800 --> 00:37:22.920
program director now, so ready your
phone? All right, oh right,

429
00:37:22.960 --> 00:37:25.039
don't worry, we're gonna get all
into the sub thing. We'll do it

430
00:37:25.039 --> 00:37:30.039
here in just a moment. Chill
out. So for those of it,

431
00:37:30.199 --> 00:37:34.079
let me just throw this out there. And I understand that people listen at

432
00:37:34.119 --> 00:37:39.639
different times. There is a method
to what appears to be absolute chaos in

433
00:37:39.679 --> 00:37:44.280
the way that we do things.
Nine percent of what we do is chaos.

434
00:37:44.880 --> 00:37:46.800
Ross will attest to this. One
of us will see something during like

435
00:37:46.840 --> 00:37:50.199
a commercial break, we'll set it
to the other one, and we're like,

436
00:37:50.760 --> 00:37:52.559
screw whatever we were doing, We're
doing this now, all right.

437
00:37:52.679 --> 00:37:58.960
That's true. However, when it
comes to what we would consider the a

438
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:04.280
block of story, I do make
an effort to either do him multiple times

439
00:38:04.519 --> 00:38:12.360
or to funnel them into what are
our most listened to times so that it's

440
00:38:12.679 --> 00:38:17.559
maximum audience for it. Because the
sub story is crazy, and I'm gonna

441
00:38:17.599 --> 00:38:20.760
do it. I'm gonna do it
coming up at the bottom of the hour

442
00:38:21.079 --> 00:38:23.920
because I want to kind of launch
it into Pete Calliner when he joins us

443
00:38:24.280 --> 00:38:30.280
at eight oh five. That and
the beth Wood story. So fear not,

444
00:38:31.639 --> 00:38:37.760
it's on the way. Okay,
all right, very good. Uh

445
00:38:37.400 --> 00:38:40.400
we got the cats story, beth
Wood story. We'll do that again,

446
00:38:40.440 --> 00:38:47.000
all right. So here's the other
election story. The mayor o'durham Elaine O'Neill,

447
00:38:49.639 --> 00:38:58.280
Judge O'Neill has announced she is not
running for reelection. So Bethwood Monster

448
00:38:58.360 --> 00:39:05.360
Truck enthusiasts. Yes, what was
the nickname we had for her? Oh?

449
00:39:05.400 --> 00:39:12.119
How did this escape my brain?
What what we call him? Beth

450
00:39:12.159 --> 00:39:15.480
O'Neil. We had some Oh,
wolf of Beth, wolf of Wall Street

451
00:39:15.559 --> 00:39:21.000
O'Neill. That's right. Yeah,
it's because of the scene in Wolf of

452
00:39:21.039 --> 00:39:22.800
Wall Street, which is the only
scene I've seen because I haven't seen the

453
00:39:22.840 --> 00:39:27.000
movie where but like he's driving home
and he thinks he's driving home fine,

454
00:39:27.280 --> 00:39:30.199
yeah, I think right, and
his head everything's fine. And then he

455
00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:32.039
wakes up the next morning and the
car is total because he was saying,

456
00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:37.159
O high on kueluds or whatever.
He's rolling down he's rolling down the steps

457
00:39:37.159 --> 00:39:44.679
of the country club and it was
oh fantastic. So she's rounding forela O'Neil's

458
00:39:44.760 --> 00:39:49.639
not O'Neill said, I will not
seek another term when it's spend time with

459
00:39:49.800 --> 00:39:53.920
family. Blah blah blah blah blah. Her this is the last year of

460
00:39:53.960 --> 00:39:59.920
her term. It'll be later in
the year. Um, all right.

461
00:40:00.119 --> 00:40:06.400
For those of you living in Durham, are you sad about this? You're

462
00:40:06.440 --> 00:40:09.400
happy about this? Do you think
things will improve? Because I gotta be

463
00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:16.599
honest, because she was she was
what mayor pro ten before and she said

464
00:40:16.639 --> 00:40:22.960
some crazy crap. Man. I
don't know. I don't know what the

465
00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:27.599
reason for leaving is. Obviously that
whole city council sounds dysfunctional when you got

466
00:40:27.639 --> 00:40:32.000
council members literally con you know,
threatening violence on others, including the mayor

467
00:40:32.639 --> 00:40:37.760
um. But you know, the
city of Durham, I will say,

468
00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:46.320
this hasn't really solved the violence problem, but the city has. The city

469
00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:54.719
has definitely and undeniably evolved with a
whole host of new business and residence.

470
00:40:57.719 --> 00:41:02.920
It's it is a hipster us do
and and frankly, their restaurant scene over

471
00:41:02.920 --> 00:41:08.599
there is incredible. They got all
they got everything under the sun over there.

472
00:41:10.079 --> 00:41:13.840
If you want something with the word
artisanal in front of it, you

473
00:41:13.840 --> 00:41:15.920
can get it in the City of
Durham. And I don't begrudge them.

474
00:41:16.039 --> 00:41:20.719
I like going to decent restaurants.
They renovated a couple of hotels there.

475
00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:25.480
The ballpark's fun to go to dpacks. Fine, you got good shows over

476
00:41:25.519 --> 00:41:30.719
there. The venue is nice.
I mean, I can appreciate that,

477
00:41:32.159 --> 00:41:37.559
but it just means you're so on
the cusp man. So when you got

478
00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:46.199
that going for you and you have
to go full moonbat on the shootings over

479
00:41:46.280 --> 00:41:51.840
there where some kid I go back
to this, but it's it's one of

480
00:41:51.880 --> 00:41:57.719
those things that emotionally a little bit
scarred me because I can envision myself.

481
00:41:58.000 --> 00:42:00.480
I can envision myself not in the
same scenario are, but a similar scenario

482
00:42:01.519 --> 00:42:05.440
where we found it. We were
going. There's a restaurant in Buffalo Wolming

483
00:42:05.559 --> 00:42:12.079
called dash In. Dash In was
the jam as a kid ross was there

484
00:42:12.119 --> 00:42:15.119
a restaurant that if you and your
siblings heard that you might be going to,

485
00:42:15.559 --> 00:42:20.079
it made your whole damn day.
There's a place that's connected a yeah

486
00:42:20.159 --> 00:42:23.119
in the summer opens up called Jumping
Jack's. Jumping Jack's. So when you

487
00:42:23.159 --> 00:42:25.800
were like eleven or twelve and you
heard you were going to jump in here,

488
00:42:25.840 --> 00:42:30.480
you thought you thought there was a
possibility you were going to jump in

489
00:42:30.599 --> 00:42:32.280
Jack the greatest thing in the world. Oh your whole day, right,

490
00:42:32.639 --> 00:42:37.599
So for us it was dashing the
Patti meld at dash In and the ice

491
00:42:37.639 --> 00:42:40.159
cream and which is funny because I'm
not a sweets person now, but oh,

492
00:42:40.440 --> 00:42:45.519
back in the day, that place, right, So imagine your excitement.

493
00:42:47.079 --> 00:42:52.599
You have just found out from your
parent you're going there. Your day's

494
00:42:52.719 --> 00:42:57.719
made man. And that's exactly what
happened with a young man and Durham,

495
00:42:58.639 --> 00:43:02.400
a preteen who found out he was
going to get snow cones. Right,

496
00:43:05.039 --> 00:43:09.559
he's it's a hot day, families
loading up in the suv. They're going

497
00:43:09.599 --> 00:43:14.840
to get, you know, treats. I remember, that's one of the

498
00:43:14.880 --> 00:43:21.159
greatest feelings as a kid. Man. That's awesome. It's weird. I

499
00:43:21.199 --> 00:43:25.840
still have memories of like going I've
been to dash In a thousand times when

500
00:43:25.840 --> 00:43:30.519
I was in you know, once
I was older, and every time I

501
00:43:30.559 --> 00:43:31.920
go back, I eat there,
like at least once a day. It's

502
00:43:31.960 --> 00:43:36.159
about to say, we're gonna be
going on vacation the week of July fourth,

503
00:43:36.199 --> 00:43:37.800
and I'm going back home for the
first time since We're stopping there,

504
00:43:37.840 --> 00:43:40.559
aren't you? And I'm so excited
to go to Jumping Jack's. Are you

505
00:43:40.639 --> 00:43:45.840
going to mom or Jumping Jack's first. I'm gonna take mom too. Jumping

506
00:43:45.920 --> 00:43:47.920
Jack's okay, all right, look
at you killing two birds one stone.

507
00:43:50.840 --> 00:43:57.639
I And so this story last year
where this young man is he's he's going

508
00:43:57.719 --> 00:44:02.920
he's going to get snow cones.
But the problem is his family's suv looks

509
00:44:02.960 --> 00:44:09.360
similar to some gangbangers SUV that some
rappers got a beef with. So what

510
00:44:09.480 --> 00:44:16.920
happens. They shoot into this car
and they kill this kid. I mean,

511
00:44:17.000 --> 00:44:21.800
just when you think of the emotional
stuff that goes along with it,

512
00:44:21.800 --> 00:44:28.400
it makes me so angry when I
hear leadership in the city. I don't

513
00:44:28.440 --> 00:44:32.960
live in the city of Durham.
That's fair enough, but it doesn't mean

514
00:44:34.000 --> 00:44:37.599
I can't be emotionally involved in this. So when I hear that story and

515
00:44:37.639 --> 00:44:42.480
I'm able to process it through the
similarities of how I felt when I was

516
00:44:42.519 --> 00:44:45.559
a kid, I don't know why, but it makes it just more horrible

517
00:44:45.760 --> 00:44:51.199
on what is already one of the
one of the most horrible stories you'll hear

518
00:44:51.239 --> 00:44:59.400
every year, and it's not the
only the only kid to suffer violence because

519
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:05.079
you have this soft on crime approach, you have this defund the police attitude,

520
00:45:05.679 --> 00:45:09.239
you have this insanity from leadership over
there. So I got to be

521
00:45:09.280 --> 00:45:15.199
honest with you. I'm happy Elaine
O'Neill is not running for reelection, but

522
00:45:15.280 --> 00:45:21.800
I'm not motivated to think they're going
to do anything different, because along with

523
00:45:21.840 --> 00:45:25.079
all of their hipster vibe and their
restaurants, their young folk, and their

524
00:45:25.920 --> 00:45:31.199
super liberal attitude. It's attracted that
say they're just going to vote for another

525
00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:35.400
O'Neil. Hell, they're probably gonna
be like Chicago and get somebody worse.

526
00:45:37.239 --> 00:45:43.119
And on that note, for any
of our listeners who live in the city

527
00:45:43.119 --> 00:45:46.400
of Durham, I feel bad for
you. And it's not just Durham.

528
00:45:46.480 --> 00:45:51.760
You have different variations in larger cities
all across the state, most of which

529
00:45:51.800 --> 00:46:02.000
we broadcast in. But Durham's further
ahead on the Moonbat scale. And for

530
00:46:02.159 --> 00:46:07.360
people, and I hear people they're
like, you know where I see them

531
00:46:07.400 --> 00:46:09.719
post on Twitter or whatever, and
they're just like, you all don't get

532
00:46:09.719 --> 00:46:13.599
it. It's great over here.
We got restaurants, We've got all that.

533
00:46:13.639 --> 00:46:15.239
And I'm like, do you care
that, like in the part of

534
00:46:15.280 --> 00:46:20.119
town you don't go to, kids
are getting shot, going to get a

535
00:46:20.119 --> 00:46:25.760
snow cone. I mean, you
claim to care, but do you recognize

536
00:46:25.880 --> 00:46:34.239
that that is a product of the
people who you elect to put in charge

537
00:46:35.119 --> 00:46:39.039
not getting serious about stopping it,
Because if you cared, that would be

538
00:46:39.079 --> 00:46:43.960
so even if you want somebody who's
like all about having, you know,

539
00:46:44.519 --> 00:46:49.480
pride parades every weekend, if they
were at the very least actually cracking down

540
00:46:49.519 --> 00:46:53.159
on the criminal element there. Like
I would get that in the sense that

541
00:46:53.239 --> 00:47:01.480
like I could understand how you could
you could vote for that person, but

542
00:47:01.559 --> 00:47:06.559
that's not right. And cash bail. They're protesting out in front of the

543
00:47:06.679 --> 00:47:12.800
jail. Why are you locking people? Blows my mind, absolutely blows my

544
00:47:12.840 --> 00:47:19.159
mind. All right, Jamal,
I only have about two and a half

545
00:47:19.199 --> 00:47:21.880
minutes, but it's all yours.
How are you feeling? You live in

546
00:47:21.960 --> 00:47:29.559
Durham, breathing and value razing?
Scy How are you you know what?

547
00:47:29.880 --> 00:47:34.840
Casey, what's gonna happen to durn
It's the same thing happened to Chicago.

548
00:47:35.159 --> 00:47:37.559
Were gonna They're gonna probably end up
a laking of Brandon Johnson. I live

549
00:47:37.639 --> 00:47:43.719
in Durham. When I ran against
Eline O'Neil, I said one the crime

550
00:47:43.880 --> 00:47:47.079
is gonna go up because they won't
address the problem. You got a mail

551
00:47:47.239 --> 00:47:52.639
pro temper who actor who went and
wrote to fund the police in front of

552
00:47:52.760 --> 00:47:57.920
the Durham Police department. When you
had a shooting last year they shot at

553
00:47:57.960 --> 00:48:02.119
the school bus. He's idiot went
out there, said mayor pro campum god,

554
00:48:02.159 --> 00:48:06.320
I cannot think of his name.
Black dude without there said it's because

555
00:48:06.320 --> 00:48:09.239
of poverty that they shot up the
school. You're allowed to hold school boy?

556
00:48:09.239 --> 00:48:12.679
Are you allowed to say that?
Or you can't remember so many name

557
00:48:12.679 --> 00:48:15.440
We're like, yeah, black dude, because I can't say that, Well,

558
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:21.639
oh yeah I can say and you
can say it took I got permission,

559
00:48:21.719 --> 00:48:24.519
so yeah, oh you remember,
I'm a jerk. Also remember the

560
00:48:25.559 --> 00:48:30.639
district, the manager, the mayor, Mark, his name is his name

561
00:48:30.719 --> 00:48:35.960
is Mark Anthony Middletons. The ProTem
Yeah, Mark Anthony Middleton said right there

562
00:48:35.960 --> 00:48:38.119
and say this because people poor,
That's why they shot at the school.

563
00:48:38.199 --> 00:48:43.599
Dervis just successful. And the people
that are in the leadership the city council

564
00:48:43.960 --> 00:48:49.599
ribing people sitting up there trying to
extort people everything people keep complaining about all

565
00:48:49.719 --> 00:48:52.519
its white racism. It's not white
racism. They sit there, they take

566
00:48:52.599 --> 00:48:57.199
doom buggies, they take four wheels
and they ride up Damna Street like they

567
00:48:57.280 --> 00:49:00.760
own it. And as long as
also said Tanna Doom, she's part of

568
00:49:00.840 --> 00:49:04.559
the problem. I wish she would
reside. I wish she would just stet

569
00:49:04.639 --> 00:49:07.440
up in the She's part of the
problem. And I hope and played,

570
00:49:07.719 --> 00:49:13.719
I hope and prayed. When Mark
Robinson becomes governor. He launched an investigation

571
00:49:13.880 --> 00:49:17.079
inside the dum so they can sit
there and realize how they have destroyed the

572
00:49:17.239 --> 00:49:22.199
city and the people that are responsible
brought up on charges. North Carolina Republicans,

573
00:49:22.239 --> 00:49:24.760
you don't have to wait for that
though, Jamal. Again, the

574
00:49:25.119 --> 00:49:30.280
governor doesn't have that, but because
of the structure of the home rule in

575
00:49:30.400 --> 00:49:36.119
North Carolina, the legislature could so. Um. You know, I'm just

576
00:49:36.199 --> 00:49:39.239
saying you don't have to wait,
man. I have to be honest,

577
00:49:39.280 --> 00:49:44.719
I have to disperge this information.
I am a Republican and I don't need

578
00:49:44.800 --> 00:49:49.320
to the Republican Party. But my
Republican Party here in North Carolina have a

579
00:49:49.400 --> 00:49:52.440
yellow streak so big down there back
you can see it from space. You

580
00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:58.280
can see that deeper than the guys
nick down in at Tacnon. But done

581
00:49:58.519 --> 00:50:01.000
is so horrible, Number Casey.
Like I've told you before, you have

582
00:50:01.239 --> 00:50:06.239
more love and concern for the people
of Durn than anybody on the city council.

583
00:50:06.280 --> 00:50:09.320
Will say that again, kayco Day
and Ross Hayes have more love and

584
00:50:09.400 --> 00:50:15.159
concern for Durn than the people who
sit there and on a city council running

585
00:50:15.519 --> 00:50:22.039
you you did, and they shold
how bad during this within thirty days shot

586
00:50:22.159 --> 00:50:31.519
spotty technology within thirty days, right, and ninety shootings. Well, they

587
00:50:31.679 --> 00:50:36.360
said, hold on now, I
heard some of the city council say that

588
00:50:36.480 --> 00:50:39.519
some of those could have been backfires
of cars. So don't be spreading,

589
00:50:39.840 --> 00:50:46.880
don't be don't be fake news.
Jamalfity Council nor Elaine O'Neil didn't go out

590
00:50:46.960 --> 00:50:52.199
then say black community, the problem
is you. I said this before.

591
00:50:52.239 --> 00:50:55.480
They didn't go out then and say
the problem is you. This not white

592
00:50:55.519 --> 00:51:00.639
supremacy. You have to stop this
shooting instead of some up they're trying to

593
00:51:00.679 --> 00:51:06.360
make excuse all day. I gotta
roll. I'm up against the clock.

594
00:51:06.480 --> 00:51:09.360
Appreciate the call this part. I'm
glad you're ecstatic. Okay, all right,

595
00:51:09.559 --> 00:51:15.840
And because it's gonna get worse,
well, I gotta well that's unfortunately

596
00:51:15.920 --> 00:51:19.840
my prediction as well, but I
gotta go to break. Jamal, have

597
00:51:20.000 --> 00:51:23.639
your shelf a good weekend, sir. Okay, here too, all right?

598
00:51:24.119 --> 00:51:36.480
Seven twenty three case O Day Radio
program Hang on MASSI eliminates one six

599
00:51:36.519 --> 00:51:45.440
one FM talk in the Triangle and
the Triad. Well, I have incredibly

600
00:51:45.519 --> 00:51:52.360
good news for all of you.
They had a I have a blue gainery

601
00:51:52.840 --> 00:52:00.199
instead of that orange crap. So
that's me. I was all Pezzi had

602
00:52:00.239 --> 00:52:02.360
drink orange yesterday just so I would
have the blue to day. Sorry,

603
00:52:04.559 --> 00:52:07.199
it's not you would all want to
know about how amazingly my day's going.

604
00:52:08.280 --> 00:52:13.559
And for all you orange Gatorade enthusiasts
do better. Okay, all right,

605
00:52:13.760 --> 00:52:22.199
very good, let's get into this. So wait, hold on, I

606
00:52:22.320 --> 00:52:25.400
got my audio ready, there we
go. All right, So a few

607
00:52:25.440 --> 00:52:30.360
things going on. Is anybody you
guys see the new bud Light ad?

608
00:52:30.599 --> 00:52:37.119
But and maybe it's just through the
vision of everything we know with all of

609
00:52:37.199 --> 00:52:42.920
the issues with bud Light, but
I don't know how it can keep getting

610
00:52:43.039 --> 00:52:45.719
sadder every time they put a commercial
out, right, Remember the initial one

611
00:52:45.800 --> 00:52:54.880
after the kerfuffle was like America,
here's some horses and some flags and stuff,

612
00:52:55.000 --> 00:52:59.119
right, and everyone's like, nah, it's not at ain't it?

613
00:52:59.320 --> 00:53:01.840
Chief? And then what was the
one we were talking about last week?

614
00:53:02.280 --> 00:53:07.719
Oh, the country music festival?
Right? Was that you roj You brought

615
00:53:07.760 --> 00:53:12.000
that up where they're at the country
music festival and your wife's like, nah,

616
00:53:12.159 --> 00:53:19.880
I ain't it. And she doesn't
even really pay attention to this stuff,

617
00:53:19.960 --> 00:53:21.920
right, I mean, you know, she's vaguely aware of it because

618
00:53:21.960 --> 00:53:25.159
she works so much and like,
like she just learned about the sub the

619
00:53:25.280 --> 00:53:29.719
Titanic sub yesterday like afternoon, Like
she heard nothing about Like dude, I

620
00:53:29.920 --> 00:53:31.239
bring up these stories and she's always
like, I have no idea. And

621
00:53:31.320 --> 00:53:34.800
for us, it's like because we
live in this and we swim in it

622
00:53:34.800 --> 00:53:37.079
and it's news twenty four seven,
we're up to date and like all these

623
00:53:37.119 --> 00:53:39.360
stories. But there's constantly these stories
where I'm like, oh, you haven't

624
00:53:39.400 --> 00:53:42.400
heard about this, how you know? And then explained it to her.

625
00:53:42.679 --> 00:53:46.880
So she was completely unaware of the
bud Light controversy. In the same recently

626
00:53:46.920 --> 00:53:50.760
with the whole Target situation, like
she learned about that her friend in Greensboro

627
00:53:50.920 --> 00:53:52.840
was like, we're not shopping there
anymore, and she was like why and

628
00:53:52.880 --> 00:53:54.960
all this kind of stuff, And
so the bud Light commercial comes on the

629
00:53:55.000 --> 00:54:00.920
TV and she's unaware of of the
real depth view of the conversations. Do

630
00:54:00.039 --> 00:54:05.119
you vocal? Because I have to
imagine because there's been several stories where You've

631
00:54:05.199 --> 00:54:07.920
told me a lot of it's off
the air at where I sent a story

632
00:54:08.119 --> 00:54:13.800
in the in the prep packet,
and then I'm assuming I envisioned you sitting

633
00:54:13.880 --> 00:54:15.960
on the couch at your laptop next
to your wife. Right, is that

634
00:54:16.039 --> 00:54:21.559
probably pretty close across the woman in
the man chair? Correct? In the

635
00:54:22.960 --> 00:54:24.920
I was like, did you move? Do you have a mansion? Now?

636
00:54:25.280 --> 00:54:28.800
Um? All right, so you're
sitting in the man chair, and

637
00:54:29.440 --> 00:54:32.719
I'm assuming from time to time,
based on our conversation, you go,

638
00:54:34.000 --> 00:54:37.480
oh my gosh, look at this. Right. Typically, no, okay,

639
00:54:37.519 --> 00:54:42.840
because she's working. I'm focusing on
Lincoln and he is a lot of

640
00:54:42.920 --> 00:54:46.840
work. I mean, it's just
it's it's she's what. It's crazy enough,

641
00:54:46.920 --> 00:54:50.239
you'll bring it up. But for
the most part, sometime, sure,

642
00:54:50.519 --> 00:54:52.159
it's very rare for me. Okay, all right, all right,

643
00:54:52.320 --> 00:54:55.079
I just want to be accurate on
this. Yeah, because then you tell

644
00:54:55.119 --> 00:54:58.199
me, she's like, she just
found out about this, and you're right,

645
00:54:58.239 --> 00:55:00.079
I run it through the filter of
this is what we swim in.

646
00:55:00.639 --> 00:55:06.960
So there's that. But she was
aware of, you know of kind of

647
00:55:07.039 --> 00:55:09.400
aware of the situation, but not
so the recent commercial came out and she

648
00:55:09.480 --> 00:55:15.880
was like, come on, guys, it was the previous one with the

649
00:55:15.960 --> 00:55:22.280
country music. Right, all right, So bud Light again has put another

650
00:55:22.360 --> 00:55:31.079
commercial out, and um, it's
all about summer. I mean, can

651
00:55:31.119 --> 00:55:35.920
you imagine your summer without bud Light? No other options? Right, Well,

652
00:55:36.079 --> 00:55:43.519
bud Light wants you to think about
that. There's a song you're familiar

653
00:55:43.599 --> 00:55:46.960
with and probably like to put that
background. There's people doing dumb stuff all

654
00:55:47.000 --> 00:55:52.559
you that dude you can't get in
the hammock. There's a guy who's got

655
00:55:52.639 --> 00:55:55.679
way too many bud lights in his
arms. Ha ha, I can totally

656
00:55:55.760 --> 00:56:04.760
relate to that. It's more of
that music you like. There's a bunch

657
00:56:04.760 --> 00:56:08.079
of people having a backyard barbecue.
Those are fun. Huh. All right,

658
00:56:08.159 --> 00:56:10.599
I'm not gonna play the whole thing
because it's just music. Ross.

659
00:56:10.679 --> 00:56:19.159
Did you notice of the fifty different
scenarios roughly that are encapsulated in that ad,

660
00:56:19.519 --> 00:56:24.960
did you notice what's not in that
ad? Yeah, barbecue's got people

661
00:56:25.000 --> 00:56:28.400
at the beach, you got guys. Damn. The one thing that I

662
00:56:28.599 --> 00:56:35.760
noticed was the theme was was people
being idiots and buffoons and yeah, yeah,

663
00:56:35.840 --> 00:56:37.440
yeah, But did you notice what's
not in there? What's not in

664
00:56:37.519 --> 00:56:47.519
there? I did not see one
representation of LGBT that is accurate, not

665
00:56:47.760 --> 00:56:52.519
a even a passive thing, where
like where they had the group in the

666
00:56:52.639 --> 00:56:55.360
backyard, you could have had a
you could have had a gay couple,

667
00:56:59.280 --> 00:57:01.280
but bud Light, Nah, they
didn't put any of that in there.

668
00:57:02.000 --> 00:57:08.880
And considering now in today's advertising where
you know what, I didn't see in

669
00:57:08.920 --> 00:57:17.119
there either as an interracial couple,
where that is almost by design, they

670
00:57:17.199 --> 00:57:22.079
did not, They actively didn't include
that. In my humble opinion, I

671
00:57:22.119 --> 00:57:24.599
don't think it's a coincidence. I
mean, and I understand that, but

672
00:57:25.639 --> 00:57:31.360
you know, I'm not if I
see an interracial couple in a commercial,

673
00:57:31.760 --> 00:57:37.360
it's not that that bothers me in
any way, shape or form. Don't

674
00:57:37.440 --> 00:57:47.480
care. Don't care. And it's
not about even randomly seeing a gay couple

675
00:57:47.519 --> 00:57:54.800
in a commercial. It is where
it is wildly overrepresented in Hollywood, where

676
00:57:54.880 --> 00:58:00.599
people go, are you trying to
recreate, you know, normal life so

677
00:58:00.760 --> 00:58:10.760
that people can relate, or are
you intentionally greasing the numbers? And there

678
00:58:12.360 --> 00:58:17.440
is there is a fine line there
where people recognize at some point that there's

679
00:58:17.440 --> 00:58:22.320
a bit of manipulation because it's not
an accurate representative. Do you remember that

680
00:58:22.400 --> 00:58:25.440
story we did where they were talking
about the percentage of the population who identifies

681
00:58:25.480 --> 00:58:31.599
as LGBT versus the percentage if you
just watched network television and how different it

682
00:58:31.800 --> 00:58:37.320
is. That's the stuff where people
go, what are you doing? Because

683
00:58:37.400 --> 00:58:42.719
most people don't care. They don't
care if there's an interracial couple, they

684
00:58:42.800 --> 00:58:45.199
don't even care. If there's a
you know, a gay couple represented,

685
00:58:45.599 --> 00:58:54.199
they just don't. I don't don't
care. I've dated, I've dated interationally.

686
00:58:54.760 --> 00:58:58.800
It didn't care. I'm not bragging. This isn't about my black friend.

687
00:58:58.840 --> 00:59:06.000
I just don't care. But when
you wildly overrepresent it, that's where

688
00:59:06.000 --> 00:59:08.519
people go, what are you doing? And bud Light knows that's what's up,

689
00:59:09.039 --> 00:59:15.079
so they made a conscious decision,
in my humble opinion, to not

690
00:59:15.280 --> 00:59:19.360
include it. It's almost it would
almost have to be because the advertising agencies

691
00:59:20.199 --> 00:59:27.280
almost exclusively will seek that out and
all there's if you look at some of

692
00:59:27.320 --> 00:59:34.079
the stories about casting calls, they're
very specific in there, this is what

693
00:59:34.280 --> 00:59:37.800
they want. And I've had discussions
with people are like, what's the bit?

694
00:59:37.840 --> 00:59:39.519
Why are you pointing that out?
I'm pointed out not because it's a

695
00:59:39.639 --> 00:59:45.119
thing, but because it's a forced
thing like a lot of other things.

696
00:59:49.639 --> 00:59:52.920
So once it becomes that and it's
like, what was it Gillette who did

697
00:59:52.960 --> 01:00:01.000
all the razor ads and tank,
their hank, their stock price a few

698
01:00:01.079 --> 01:00:06.440
years ago, where they're like where
they were just bemoaning how much men are

699
01:00:06.559 --> 01:00:10.079
horrible, And it's like, dude, you're selling face raisers. Two dudes,

700
01:00:12.079 --> 01:00:16.400
what is this but that bud light
ad? Watch it? Well,

701
01:00:16.559 --> 01:00:20.199
we're tweeting it out at Casey on
the radio. It's not in there,

702
01:00:22.360 --> 01:00:25.400
And I find that very interesting,
all right? Eight eight eight nine three

703
01:00:25.519 --> 01:00:31.760
four seven eight seven four. I'm
sorry Ross. Who is since Stagi's doing

704
01:00:31.840 --> 01:00:37.159
that thing? Who's on Weather today? That would be Ken Boone? Ken

705
01:00:37.280 --> 01:00:40.840
Boone? Who's he? What's he
doing? He's doing some interviewers. I'm

706
01:00:40.880 --> 01:00:44.079
sorry, Ken Boon from the Weather
Channel. What's up, my man?

707
01:00:44.119 --> 01:00:46.280
How you doing? I'm doing well, good morning. Oh. We are

708
01:00:46.360 --> 01:00:50.159
going to see a little bit of
a dryer trend to the weather once we

709
01:00:50.239 --> 01:00:52.480
get into the weekend, but I
still think we've got a pretty good chance

710
01:00:52.559 --> 01:00:55.280
to see some showers and storms at
any time as we head through the day

711
01:00:55.320 --> 01:01:00.000
today. Otherwise, cloudy skies and
a little bit warmer than we were yesterday.

712
01:01:00.119 --> 01:01:02.559
Temperatures this afternoon expected to reach highs
in a low part of the eighties.

713
01:01:02.639 --> 01:01:06.239
Partly cloudy overnight to night, upper
sixties. I think we'll see more

714
01:01:06.280 --> 01:01:08.480
sunshine mix in with the clouds tomorrow, but it's still a slight chance to

715
01:01:08.559 --> 01:01:12.880
see a shower storm through the afternoon. Temperatures into the mid eighties tomorrow,

716
01:01:12.960 --> 01:01:16.119
and then Sunday Sunday skies rather hot
to finish the weekend upper eighties to around

717
01:01:16.239 --> 01:01:22.800
nineties Sunday afternoon. So Sunday is
the golf day? Is that what I'm

718
01:01:22.880 --> 01:01:25.239
hearing from you? Sunday would be
the best day. Yes, if you

719
01:01:25.280 --> 01:01:29.039
want to plan something outdoors, although
we'll be a little on the hot side.

720
01:01:29.559 --> 01:01:34.000
Okay, Well, you know what, We'll drink plenty of alcoholic beverages.

721
01:01:34.039 --> 01:01:36.679
It'll be fine. There you go, all right, thanks, Ken,

722
01:01:36.719 --> 01:01:39.440
appreciate it, all right? Ken
Moon there from the Weather Channel.

723
01:01:42.039 --> 01:01:45.400
Ross you hear what I did there? Planted a seed? Man, Dude,

724
01:01:45.400 --> 01:01:46.960
I'm gonna keep this thing going because
I'm assuming it's not gonna be Ken

725
01:01:47.079 --> 01:01:52.079
every day. It's probably gonna be
you know, Jeff Maher, Ken,

726
01:01:52.239 --> 01:01:54.239
boy, what are you talking about
Ray's big gig? Yeah? Yeah,

727
01:01:55.039 --> 01:01:59.360
well interview for the gig? So
right, we don't want to get too

728
01:01:59.360 --> 01:02:00.480
far ahead of ourself. No,
no, no, no, I just

729
01:02:00.760 --> 01:02:07.280
you know, Uh, it's gonna
be our project seven forty six. All

730
01:02:07.400 --> 01:02:15.440
right, so what's up with the
sub Yeah, apparently this has been a

731
01:02:15.559 --> 01:02:21.880
known thing for days. And I'm
gonna give you some technical stuff. Okay,

732
01:02:22.119 --> 01:02:23.840
give you a little technical stuff which
I found fascinating. I mean,

733
01:02:23.880 --> 01:02:31.239
it's a it's a horrible story,
but if you have to go judging by

734
01:02:31.320 --> 01:02:40.199
the description, it's pretty interesting.
So we got that. But also a

735
01:02:40.320 --> 01:02:46.400
little conspiracy thought. I don't know
that it's true, but it's a good

736
01:02:46.519 --> 01:02:54.159
point. And nerd fight, So
nerd fight technical stuff and conspiracy. Okay,

737
01:02:54.280 --> 01:02:58.159
and Pete Calendar at eight oh five, all come in your way,

738
01:02:58.440 --> 01:03:05.079
hang on smart talk all day,
nine four five WPTI in the Triad and

739
01:03:05.280 --> 01:03:10.000
one oh six one FM talking in
the triangle. You know, for two

740
01:03:10.079 --> 01:03:15.239
people who are antisocial and I don't
like to be around people, Ross and

741
01:03:15.320 --> 01:03:19.880
I are. I think we work
really well together because independent of each other

742
01:03:20.280 --> 01:03:25.000
on both the bud light thing and
the submarine thing or excuse me, submersible.

743
01:03:27.760 --> 01:03:32.079
Please don't send me your email.
We arrived basically the same place,

744
01:03:32.159 --> 01:03:36.039
and I want to reiterate because I
don't know if I stress the point enough.

745
01:03:36.159 --> 01:03:37.599
When I was talking about the bud
Light ad because you really have to

746
01:03:37.679 --> 01:03:43.000
understand what's going on here. It's
not just a commercial where they're you know,

747
01:03:43.119 --> 01:03:47.360
they're they're snapping back and forth to
all of these different settings. It

748
01:03:47.880 --> 01:03:53.840
is a continued opinion. So if
you watch the commercial, you don't have

749
01:03:54.000 --> 01:04:00.960
interracial couples, you don't have LGBT
representation in there. So you have to

750
01:04:00.039 --> 01:04:05.480
ask yourself, in today's marketing environment, how did that happen? Because if

751
01:04:05.519 --> 01:04:11.519
you go to a marketing in the
agency, almost you don't have to request

752
01:04:11.599 --> 01:04:14.599
it. And it's interesting actually,
so if you see these pitch sheets,

753
01:04:15.760 --> 01:04:18.360
right, if you see copy like
we see copy on the radio side,

754
01:04:18.480 --> 01:04:23.840
it's somewhat limited. You see it
on the TV side, they're very specific.

755
01:04:24.400 --> 01:04:27.599
It looks like a script, but
it says, you know, scene

756
01:04:27.679 --> 01:04:31.360
opens on a black husband and white
wife, blah blah blah blah blah.

757
01:04:31.639 --> 01:04:35.000
And if you watch that bud Light
commercial, you'll see that that doesn't exist

758
01:04:35.079 --> 01:04:42.360
in there. And so where am
I going with this? Obviously bud Light

759
01:04:42.559 --> 01:04:46.519
whoever is handling the marketing right now, because that chicks quote unquote on remember

760
01:04:46.519 --> 01:04:50.760
this is the woman who did the
interview and she's like our clienteles a bunch

761
01:04:50.800 --> 01:04:56.199
of frat it's a fratty environment,
and you get what she's implying there.

762
01:04:57.519 --> 01:05:01.599
So rather than admitting that that was
stupid, they created yet another commercial.

763
01:05:02.039 --> 01:05:09.000
Except the commercial is based on the
assumption and I don't feel that I'm wrong

764
01:05:09.199 --> 01:05:15.159
here. They created a commercial that
they felt was appropriate for their audience,

765
01:05:15.440 --> 01:05:23.360
their traditional customers who have gone away, But they catered it under the assumption

766
01:05:23.559 --> 01:05:29.440
that you have a problem with people
who are gay or in an interracial relationship.

767
01:05:29.960 --> 01:05:32.639
In fact, Ross, there's not
a lot of people of color in

768
01:05:32.760 --> 01:05:36.280
that commercial. They're there, I
don't is they even way? Yeah,

769
01:05:36.320 --> 01:05:41.360
there's one dude at that big party
there, but my but you get what

770
01:05:41.440 --> 01:05:47.480
I'm saying. Right, You mentioned
that the previous segment people don't care liked

771
01:05:47.599 --> 01:05:50.679
upon them. They Yeah, there's
always the outlier, right, there's always

772
01:05:50.760 --> 01:05:57.639
the small percentage of a right,
Yeah, the average person doesn't care.

773
01:05:58.559 --> 01:06:00.159
We're cool with it, We're fine. A lot of us are like children

774
01:06:00.199 --> 01:06:02.880
of the eighties and nineties, right, that's their target demo, right now.

775
01:06:03.480 --> 01:06:06.480
We we were brought up differently,
right, Like I mentioned this before,

776
01:06:06.559 --> 01:06:11.760
it's a generation that has never known
life without Martin Luther King Junior day.

777
01:06:11.840 --> 01:06:14.559
It's part of our existence, right. You base people and you judge

778
01:06:14.599 --> 01:06:16.840
people on the content of their character, not on the color of their skin.

779
01:06:17.000 --> 01:06:19.440
And when it comes to who you're
sleeping with, most of us don't

780
01:06:19.519 --> 01:06:25.599
care. It makes absolutely no difference. But when everything is that main focus,

781
01:06:25.800 --> 01:06:30.920
it becomes tiresome. And because it's
not representative, it's not representative of

782
01:06:30.119 --> 01:06:35.719
reality of the Democrat, because it's
an accusation against you, where you're like,

783
01:06:35.920 --> 01:06:38.960
why are they telling me that I
have a problem with this? Who

784
01:06:39.000 --> 01:06:42.400
the hell are you? And when
you look at the newest commercial, the

785
01:06:42.440 --> 01:06:46.960
bud light commercial, what you're gonna
notice is every single little snippet instant in

786
01:06:47.559 --> 01:06:53.199
the ad is a white person doing
something dumb or stupid. Yeah, first,

787
01:06:53.280 --> 01:06:55.639
one person doesn't know how to sit
in a hammock falls out. The

788
01:06:55.719 --> 01:06:58.800
other person doesn't know how a refrigerator
works, breaks it. The other person

789
01:06:58.880 --> 01:07:00.920
doesn't know how a egg works.
The other person doesn't know how to tan,

790
01:07:01.480 --> 01:07:05.119
and over and over and over again. However, like you said,

791
01:07:05.159 --> 01:07:11.599
there's no minority representation, So is
that their idea of what they think their

792
01:07:11.639 --> 01:07:15.800
customers? Right, it is the
same opinion that that woman expressed put into

793
01:07:15.960 --> 01:07:23.039
a sixty second commercial. It is
somebody went, we're gonna fix this and

794
01:07:23.159 --> 01:07:26.079
we're going to give them what they
want. And we feel that our customer

795
01:07:26.159 --> 01:07:30.360
base doesn't want minorities, minority or
interracial couples or gay people, right,

796
01:07:30.400 --> 01:07:33.119
and they're all dumb, frat stupid
white people. So they've learned nothing.

797
01:07:34.280 --> 01:07:36.920
It's not just the dumb hu you
know. The dumb husband thing is the

798
01:07:38.000 --> 01:07:41.960
thing that some people up beef with, which once again is tiresome. Absolutely

799
01:07:42.400 --> 01:07:45.320
absolutely, And look, I don't
even have a if bud light wasn't in

800
01:07:45.360 --> 01:07:49.400
the predicament they're in showing a commercial
of people doing dumb stuff during the summer

801
01:07:49.400 --> 01:07:54.639
because they're drinking. I wouldn't have
a problem with because that's the thing that

802
01:07:54.800 --> 01:07:59.760
happens, right people. I'm dude, I remember I've told this story.

803
01:08:00.000 --> 01:08:01.320
I first moved to North Carolina.
I'm like, how does nobody trying to

804
01:08:01.360 --> 01:08:06.000
sell me moonshine? And one three
of you sent moonshine to the radio station.

805
01:08:06.119 --> 01:08:11.400
What did my dumbass do? I
went down to Topsail Island. I

806
01:08:11.519 --> 01:08:15.800
had my little Mason jar it was
peach, thank you, and I had

807
01:08:15.840 --> 01:08:18.199
my little chair in the beach and
I drank a little bit of it and

808
01:08:18.319 --> 01:08:21.279
I ended up falling. I ended
up with I look like a crab,

809
01:08:23.039 --> 01:08:29.399
I'm an idiot. Whatever. It
was good, But that commercial and how

810
01:08:29.479 --> 01:08:31.840
they think it appeals to you is
what they expect of you or what they

811
01:08:31.960 --> 01:08:36.279
think you want. So that woman's
opinion that you're a bunch of dumb,

812
01:08:36.560 --> 01:08:44.199
fratty, racist people who drink bud
Lighter, in this case, drink American

813
01:08:44.319 --> 01:08:49.319
Logger, that's a continuation of that
opinion. And they don't even realize that

814
01:08:50.760 --> 01:08:56.239
by structuring that commercial how they did
and then coupling it with a bunch of

815
01:08:56.359 --> 01:09:01.920
dumb white people doing dumb stuff,
but leaving out all that other stuffy they

816
01:09:02.039 --> 01:09:06.920
continue to misunderstand their audience. And
all they gotta do is come out and

817
01:09:08.000 --> 01:09:11.439
be like, look, we hired
this marketing agency. This woman doesn't work

818
01:09:11.520 --> 01:09:16.239
for us anymore. Her opinion of
our customers is repugnant to us. All

819
01:09:16.319 --> 01:09:21.840
of this could have been and now
they're twenty billion dollars in market capital.

820
01:09:23.319 --> 01:09:26.119
I have a way for them to
solve the problem, and I know most

821
01:09:26.159 --> 01:09:30.159
people have come to this conclusion.
All you need is a black screen with

822
01:09:30.359 --> 01:09:34.760
the words in an all white in
the center that says we're sorry, and

823
01:09:34.960 --> 01:09:41.880
then the bud light logo. But
they can't do that because then they're going

824
01:09:41.920 --> 01:09:44.640
to piss off the other side and
they should have never gotten into politics.

825
01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:46.319
But that's all they need to do. That's that's all the ad has to

826
01:09:46.399 --> 01:09:50.600
be. There had no sound,
silent white letters with the logo. It's

827
01:09:50.880 --> 01:09:54.439
yeah. But then I'm getting that
post nine to eleven and post COVID.

828
01:09:54.680 --> 01:09:58.479
Remember all the COVID commercials during these
trying times. But what else are they

829
01:09:58.520 --> 01:10:01.279
going to do? Because every they're
not gonna do anything. They're gonna continue

830
01:10:01.319 --> 01:10:04.079
to double down on this. We'll
talk about it with Pete Calendar. We'll

831
01:10:04.079 --> 01:10:08.439
get into the sub discussion too.
It's crazy coming up next. Hang on,

832
01:10:33.199 --> 01:10:36.600
all right, good born in everybody. It is eight o seven,

833
01:10:36.680 --> 01:10:42.159
It's Friday, which is the important
piece of that puzzle. Glad to have

834
01:10:42.239 --> 01:10:45.880
you along ac O day radio program. Boy boy, we got some stuff

835
01:10:45.920 --> 01:10:49.039
to get into to help us do
it. It's our radio buddy to the

836
01:10:49.079 --> 01:10:51.760
south. Peak Calendar joins us.
Pete, how you doing this morning?

837
01:10:53.800 --> 01:10:57.840
I'm doing all right, just getting
ready for that Kamala Harris presidency. You

838
01:10:57.920 --> 01:11:02.520
know, I didn't get into it, you know what, you know,

839
01:11:02.560 --> 01:11:04.560
I don't even know if I want
to bring it up. I made an

840
01:11:04.600 --> 01:11:09.199
ad decision not to do the story
yesterday. Not no, not that story,

841
01:11:09.319 --> 01:11:14.359
but the Marjorie Taylor Green Bobert thing. Oh no, yeah, yeah,

842
01:11:14.359 --> 01:11:16.680
I don't care about that, okay, all right? Yeah, Wow,

843
01:11:16.720 --> 01:11:19.479
you got four hundred and thirty five
people together and they don't all get

844
01:11:19.479 --> 01:11:24.119
along all the time. Wow,
Okay, breaking news. I know,

845
01:11:24.319 --> 01:11:28.159
it's just so stupid. It's just
because you know what, all right,

846
01:11:28.560 --> 01:11:30.399
damn it, we're into it.
You look now, we're into it.

847
01:11:30.479 --> 01:11:33.800
What are you doing? Yeah,
we're gonna but we're only gonna spend real

848
01:11:33.880 --> 01:11:35.800
quick. All right. So,
for those of you don't know, U,

849
01:11:36.359 --> 01:11:42.159
reportedly, Marjorie Taylor Green called Lauren
Boberd a little female dog the B

850
01:11:42.319 --> 01:11:46.800
word. All right. So um
and but and I initially, Ross will

851
01:11:46.800 --> 01:11:53.119
attest to this. Him and I
both independently ignored that story yesterday. And

852
01:11:53.199 --> 01:11:57.399
it was only after the show when
we were talking. Ross attest that this

853
01:11:57.600 --> 01:12:00.239
is accurate. It was only after
the show when we're like, I wonder

854
01:12:00.279 --> 01:12:03.199
why she did it? That we
looked right after the show, all right,

855
01:12:03.880 --> 01:12:05.800
all right, So you're shaking and
say, yes, that's how that

856
01:12:05.880 --> 01:12:11.279
happened. And then when I saw
what it was, I couldn't have imagined

857
01:12:11.399 --> 01:12:15.039
something that's stupid. So the beef, for those you don't know, was

858
01:12:15.920 --> 01:12:20.960
Marjorie Taylor Green had her own articles
of impeachment and it wasn't getting any traction,

859
01:12:21.520 --> 01:12:24.720
and by the way, Bobert's are
going to get a little, but

860
01:12:24.760 --> 01:12:30.159
it's a procedural. And then Bobert
put her own in and that irritated Green.

861
01:12:30.439 --> 01:12:32.600
It was essentially one of them was
at a party, the other one

862
01:12:32.640 --> 01:12:39.079
showed up wearing the same dress.
It was the dumbest thing ever. Well,

863
01:12:39.159 --> 01:12:45.359
yeah, I didn't Green accuse bober
of essentially plagiarizing, Yeah, copying

864
01:12:45.600 --> 01:12:50.079
her articles of impeachment or something.
Yeah, and so it's just it's going

865
01:12:50.119 --> 01:12:54.600
to go to the committee. So
the AP, you know, is framing

866
01:12:54.640 --> 01:12:58.159
it in the in the Republican leadership
is framing it as a stall tactic,

867
01:12:58.399 --> 01:13:00.680
and maybe it is, I don't
know, but they ran that thing through

868
01:13:00.840 --> 01:13:04.239
before we learn about the I R. S. Whistleblower details, and so

869
01:13:04.359 --> 01:13:09.720
now it's kind of like boom,
Well maybe they could use that vehicle in

870
01:13:09.880 --> 01:13:14.960
order to advance impeachment articles, or
they could take that vehicle and park it

871
01:13:15.039 --> 01:13:18.399
on top of another vehicle in downtown
Raleigh and then run for reelection. Nice.

872
01:13:19.199 --> 01:13:23.399
That is a professional segue. Do
not attempt that at home. Casey

873
01:13:23.560 --> 01:13:28.880
is a is a trained professional on
a closed course. Here. So Beth

874
01:13:29.000 --> 01:13:32.399
Wood says she is running for reelection, and you know what, she'll probably

875
01:13:32.439 --> 01:13:38.159
get reelected. I just hope that
someone else is driving the campaign bus,

876
01:13:38.399 --> 01:13:42.439
that's all. Can you imagine if
she did one of those whistle stop tours

877
01:13:42.439 --> 01:13:45.600
in the back of a train of
rangers. Well, yeah, so I

878
01:13:45.680 --> 01:13:48.359
do wonder like if you yeah,
yeah, I mean, how do you

879
01:13:48.479 --> 01:13:53.279
go to any fundraising event? Right? If this is the thing that that

880
01:13:53.880 --> 01:13:59.159
amazes me about people who have scandals
like this, right, and then they

881
01:13:59.239 --> 01:14:02.960
go out and hit the circuit and
they get up in front of crowds and

882
01:14:03.760 --> 01:14:06.000
do you do you make the joke? Do you not make the joke?

883
01:14:06.119 --> 01:14:12.920
Whatever? But you know that the
audience knows this stuff, and everybody is

884
01:14:13.000 --> 01:14:17.239
engaged in this sort of pretend amnesia, like we won't bring it up,

885
01:14:17.319 --> 01:14:20.119
you don't mention it, and it's
all good. We'll all just kind of

886
01:14:20.159 --> 01:14:24.399
forget that it ever happened like this, whatever you think I'm going to connect

887
01:14:24.439 --> 01:14:26.840
this, trust me. But whatever
you think about Tiger Woods, right with

888
01:14:26.960 --> 01:14:30.439
all of the scandal, remember when
he the original one where he's like,

889
01:14:30.600 --> 01:14:32.479
yeah, he drove the car,
he fell asleep and drove the car into

890
01:14:32.520 --> 01:14:34.680
the tree and all that, and
then everybody found out, oh my gosh,

891
01:14:34.720 --> 01:14:39.760
he's you know, got some serious
um drug abuse issues and stuff.

892
01:14:40.119 --> 01:14:42.479
And then all the stuff about the
hookers come out or whatever it was.

893
01:14:42.600 --> 01:14:44.840
Yeah, well, well he drove
the tree. He drove it into the

894
01:14:44.880 --> 01:14:47.079
tree trying to get away from his
wife that was wielding the seven iron,

895
01:14:47.239 --> 01:14:55.520
right right, But why because because
the women? Because because he tapped Chili's

896
01:14:55.560 --> 01:14:59.000
waitress ers or per Rise or something. Yeah right, right, yeah,

897
01:14:59.159 --> 01:15:00.720
but I thought he was all a
dost up on ambient. But anyway,

898
01:15:01.359 --> 01:15:05.840
the point here is that like I
like I really do believe that that's and

899
01:15:05.960 --> 01:15:11.439
why he did so poorly after that. That's the psychological component. Is you're

900
01:15:11.520 --> 01:15:15.840
walking around on the golf course and
you know that everybody there knows all of

901
01:15:15.920 --> 01:15:20.479
this stuff about you, and it
gets in your head and he couldn't he

902
01:15:20.640 --> 01:15:25.760
couldn't play the game after that because
it's such a psychological driven game, you

903
01:15:25.840 --> 01:15:29.920
know. And that's what I wonder
about. Don't disagree with you, I

904
01:15:30.119 --> 01:15:32.720
like there was more than one person
I talked to is like I will rent

905
01:15:32.840 --> 01:15:38.319
him a hooker. Do you know
what I'm like? Woods? Right?

906
01:15:38.520 --> 01:15:42.119
Um, Yeah, I mean there's
a lot going on there, don't get

907
01:15:42.159 --> 01:15:45.399
me wrong. Yeah, that's the
thing with like that, Woods. She's

908
01:15:45.399 --> 01:15:46.960
gonna get up there. Yeah,
she's gonna get up in front of these

909
01:15:47.000 --> 01:15:50.600
crowds of people, and she's gonna
start giving speeches and stuff. And like,

910
01:15:50.840 --> 01:15:56.319
you got to be on guard right
for any any kind of sentence or

911
01:15:56.399 --> 01:16:00.439
even word that you say that might
have a double meaning that ties back to

912
01:16:00.800 --> 01:16:05.439
you know, drinking, partying,
duy, hit and run car accidents,

913
01:16:05.560 --> 01:16:10.720
like driving in general. Anything you
say is going to have this sort of

914
01:16:11.119 --> 01:16:14.079
twisted meaning now, and that's got
to get into your head. But I

915
01:16:14.159 --> 01:16:16.760
guess that's what makes politicians, you
know, different, is that it doesn't

916
01:16:16.800 --> 01:16:20.760
apparently like it doesn't register at all. They just do whatever, say whatever.

917
01:16:20.840 --> 01:16:24.680
It's like, just keep going forward. Scandal, no scandal doesn't matter.

918
01:16:25.760 --> 01:16:29.760
I mean, maybe I feel like
you're missing one of the key components

919
01:16:29.840 --> 01:16:34.079
there. If you only if you're
a Republican. Well everyone only had too.

920
01:16:34.359 --> 01:16:36.760
If you're a Republican, you have
to be on guard for that.

921
01:16:36.960 --> 01:16:41.680
But what is Beth Wood with the
letter after her name have to worry about.

922
01:16:42.279 --> 01:16:45.600
You've seen the coverage they can't get. The media can't get enough of

923
01:16:45.680 --> 01:16:47.920
this Tim Moore stuff, which to
me, I don't know what happened,

924
01:16:48.000 --> 01:16:56.560
but it feels very like horrible divorce
story. Right, Okay, but RL's

925
01:16:56.960 --> 01:17:00.079
they're banging away on this. They're
doing eight yard words a day, and

926
01:17:00.520 --> 01:17:03.880
yeah, Tim holding lobbyist orgies.
I mean, it's crazy. But if

927
01:17:03.920 --> 01:17:06.920
beth Wood comes out there and is
you know, makes some reference, that's

928
01:17:06.960 --> 01:17:11.600
an easy callback to that, like
you know, we don't want to crash

929
01:17:11.880 --> 01:17:15.720
something and she means something else.
But right, But if she says that

930
01:17:15.840 --> 01:17:17.920
they're not going to do eight hundred
words on that, you know this M

931
01:17:18.960 --> 01:17:21.159
yeah, no, I yeah,
I do. It's that's I call it

932
01:17:21.279 --> 01:17:24.800
the big D shield, right,
That's what it does. It protects you

933
01:17:25.000 --> 01:17:28.199
from it protects you from that kind
of coverage. And I call it the

934
01:17:28.319 --> 01:17:31.600
defend or disavow game D or D. And it's where you know you did

935
01:17:31.680 --> 01:17:34.399
something and so someone's going to stick
a microphone in my face and ask me,

936
01:17:34.520 --> 01:17:38.119
do I defend what you did or
disavow what you did? And it's

937
01:17:38.159 --> 01:17:40.520
like, well, I didn't do
that thing, but you got to you

938
01:17:40.560 --> 01:17:43.760
gotta take a position. And on
this Tim Moore story, Uh, you

939
01:17:43.840 --> 01:17:47.359
know, we have the complaint.
But my wife is she works in family

940
01:17:47.479 --> 01:17:51.319
law as they call it family law, but it's you know, divorce proceedings

941
01:17:51.359 --> 01:17:56.439
and such. And if you're at
the point where apparently this Waite County couple

942
01:17:56.680 --> 01:18:00.520
is like, it's already bad,
right, it has gotten very, very

943
01:18:00.560 --> 01:18:02.960
bad. It's very messy and anger, you know, a lot of anger

944
01:18:03.800 --> 01:18:10.399
and trying to hurt each other.
And I don't know the details of what

945
01:18:10.600 --> 01:18:14.079
all went went on and what didn't. I'm willing to wait, just like

946
01:18:14.600 --> 01:18:16.439
usually I do, Like, let's
wait and hear somewhere or the information.

947
01:18:16.560 --> 01:18:20.079
Now, the one thing I would
I'm kind of surprised we haven't seen is

948
01:18:20.159 --> 01:18:25.880
that she said there is a signed
separation agreement. Now that means something.

949
01:18:26.239 --> 01:18:30.800
So when was that signed? Because
that's that's a pretty important piece of information.

950
01:18:30.960 --> 01:18:34.720
But nobody has asked her, and
she has her lawyer hasn't provided the

951
01:18:34.840 --> 01:18:40.199
date. I think that's important because
it's relevant to whether or not the complaint

952
01:18:40.319 --> 01:18:45.560
from the from the estranged husband has
merit or not. I don't disagree at

953
01:18:45.600 --> 01:18:49.600
all, um, but you know, one I didn't realize how screwge you

954
01:18:49.600 --> 01:18:53.760
are. You got to be on
your best behavior, dude, I will

955
01:18:53.840 --> 01:19:00.439
say, Um, I come out
looking much better by example or by Yeah,

956
01:19:00.800 --> 01:19:03.159
my wife loves the fact that I
don't do all of the things that

957
01:19:04.119 --> 01:19:08.199
she hears about, you know,
like every now and again, she'll just

958
01:19:08.239 --> 01:19:10.520
come home and say, oh,
thanks a lot for not doing this terrible

959
01:19:10.600 --> 01:19:13.000
thing, you know. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, no, just like

960
01:19:13.439 --> 01:19:15.560
I met you, why, I
looks so nice. But now I realize

961
01:19:15.600 --> 01:19:17.600
you score you in a court of
law. So this all right? Well

962
01:19:17.680 --> 01:19:20.439
yeah, that's yeah. So I'm
on my best behavior, okay, all

963
01:19:20.520 --> 01:19:26.439
right yeah yeah. So um let
me get into this. Have you seen

964
01:19:26.520 --> 01:19:30.000
the new have you seen the latest
bud Light commercial? Do I have to

965
01:19:30.560 --> 01:19:33.600
No, no, no, no, but I but there's something I you

966
01:19:33.680 --> 01:19:38.039
know, one of the things that
you and I do is we have to

967
01:19:38.800 --> 01:19:42.239
uh. The guy who kind of
mentored me, he referred to it as

968
01:19:42.319 --> 01:19:45.720
peeling the onion, right, we
see, we peel the onion. Yeah,

969
01:19:45.800 --> 01:19:47.359
yeah, till everybody cries. Yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, all

970
01:19:47.399 --> 01:19:50.920
right, So if you look at
the new bud light commercial, and so

971
01:19:51.039 --> 01:19:56.239
what do they do? They went
out and they licensed sheiks seventy was a

972
01:19:56.319 --> 01:19:59.600
seventy nine or eighty good time song. All right, all right, all

973
01:19:59.680 --> 01:20:04.079
right, they went with a summer
theme, right, I started to do

974
01:20:04.159 --> 01:20:06.479
on the radio. But wait,
if you watch the commercial, it's a

975
01:20:06.520 --> 01:20:11.600
minute long, and it's about fifty
cutshots of different scenarios, and in each

976
01:20:11.680 --> 01:20:15.199
scenario it's somebody doing something stupid.
Right. A woman lays with her cell

977
01:20:15.239 --> 01:20:17.960
phone on her belly while she's tanning. Now she's got a tan mark.

978
01:20:18.079 --> 01:20:21.399
Some guy doesn't know how a keg
works. Guy can't get into a hammock.

979
01:20:21.520 --> 01:20:25.319
Somebody's got too many bud lights in
his arms trying to walk in the

980
01:20:25.439 --> 01:20:28.720
yard. All right, and if
and if you didn't have all the bud

981
01:20:28.840 --> 01:20:31.800
light before that, the you know, insanity, it wouldn't be a thing.

982
01:20:32.840 --> 01:20:38.239
We peel the onion here. Yeah, and you remember, and people

983
01:20:38.279 --> 01:20:43.199
should remember that it wasn't just about
the Dylan mulvaney ad that in and yourself.

984
01:20:43.479 --> 01:20:46.159
If they just came out and said
we sent it to one hundred influencers,

985
01:20:46.560 --> 01:20:49.840
what's your problem, right, we
made six of these cans. They're

986
01:20:49.880 --> 01:20:53.720
not they're not for sale anywhere else. We gave him a limited run.

987
01:20:53.760 --> 01:20:56.520
We sent it to a hundred people, right exactly. That wasn't I agree

988
01:20:56.560 --> 01:20:58.960
to that. That was not that. I mean, I know people may

989
01:20:59.079 --> 01:21:00.880
want to make it that for their
own reasons, like either yay, you

990
01:21:00.960 --> 01:21:04.239
know, uh, you know,
we object to the transgender stuff and so

991
01:21:04.319 --> 01:21:06.800
we're gonna make it about him,
or you get people that are defending bud

992
01:21:06.840 --> 01:21:11.920
Light because they want to defend transgenders. That's I don't think that that was

993
01:21:12.000 --> 01:21:14.960
the reason. No, no,
no, no, it was a combination

994
01:21:15.079 --> 01:21:18.279
of things, because that's a perfect
People are somewhat reasonable, especially when they're

995
01:21:18.279 --> 01:21:23.439
on the side that's less likely to
boycott stuff. They had just said,

996
01:21:23.479 --> 01:21:26.279
look, we just looked to see
who's got the views, and these are

997
01:21:26.319 --> 01:21:29.079
the hundred people with the most views. We sent them a can. Fine.

998
01:21:29.600 --> 01:21:35.479
What was damning was a peek into
the opinion of management of their customer

999
01:21:35.560 --> 01:21:41.800
base. And you saw that obviously
with the marketing woman who's referred to it

1000
01:21:41.840 --> 01:21:45.239
as a fratty environment and various other
things. But it was derogatory. So

1001
01:21:45.920 --> 01:21:50.119
bud Light does this commercial and like
I said, it's like fifty different cutshots

1002
01:21:50.279 --> 01:21:56.600
of all these stupid things, which, in a normal fashion for funny beer

1003
01:21:56.680 --> 01:22:00.039
ads, would have just been another
beer ad. But I noticed something when

1004
01:22:00.079 --> 01:22:05.079
I was watching it, and I'm
curious your initial thought on this, and

1005
01:22:05.119 --> 01:22:10.560
I'll tell you where I'm at in
the fifty cuts, it's what's not in

1006
01:22:10.680 --> 01:22:20.199
there, and that would include interracial
couples, any LGBTQ representation. It's it's

1007
01:22:20.279 --> 01:22:25.560
just dumb white people. There is
there are a couple people of color in

1008
01:22:25.600 --> 01:22:28.880
there that are you know, a
part like the backyard Party's got a little

1009
01:22:29.119 --> 01:22:33.560
mixture, but it's not in there. So when you notice a lack of

1010
01:22:33.840 --> 01:22:41.279
any of that in a sixty second
national commercial today with today's marketing agencies.

1011
01:22:41.359 --> 01:22:44.239
By the way, did you know
but Light's marketing agency just got their own

1012
01:22:45.319 --> 01:22:48.560
their version of an oscar. They
just got an award. But when you

1013
01:22:48.720 --> 01:22:54.399
see that not included in the sixty
seconds, what does that make you think?

1014
01:22:56.119 --> 01:23:00.520
Well, first off, like every
commercial nowadays, as those elements right

1015
01:23:00.640 --> 01:23:04.760
right, like right, the interracial
couples are everywhere, and I'm not I

1016
01:23:04.880 --> 01:23:09.359
don't have any objection to that's fine, um, but it's noticeable, right,

1017
01:23:09.399 --> 01:23:12.560
like you can tell usually, but
yeah, but there's a I'm sorry

1018
01:23:12.560 --> 01:23:15.199
to interrupt, but there's a difference
between it being in there. Somebody did

1019
01:23:15.239 --> 01:23:21.399
a study of network TV versus percentage
of the population for LGBT, and it

1020
01:23:21.600 --> 01:23:26.680
was like it was like double minimum
double, And so once people start feeling

1021
01:23:26.720 --> 01:23:29.640
it's forced, I think that's where
people get up to it. But I'm

1022
01:23:29.680 --> 01:23:32.279
with you, don't care, don't
care, but there's something right here.

1023
01:23:32.359 --> 01:23:35.159
So I'm sorry to interrupt. You
go ahead, Well, so, yeah,

1024
01:23:35.239 --> 01:23:38.640
no, And I was gonna say
the same thing about the you know,

1025
01:23:38.840 --> 01:23:44.600
LGBT representation. There's an overrepresentation in
UH in marketing and advertising and media,

1026
01:23:45.359 --> 01:23:47.479
and you can argue that that's for
a good reason, but it is

1027
01:23:47.600 --> 01:23:51.880
noticeable. Again, I don't I
don't object to the to the UH,

1028
01:23:53.359 --> 01:23:56.159
the use of different images like that
to sell your product, right, sell

1029
01:23:56.199 --> 01:24:00.359
your product, it's fine, But
when you then take those elements out right,

1030
01:24:00.600 --> 01:24:03.119
you're now sending a message like even
first of all, it sends a

1031
01:24:03.159 --> 01:24:06.399
message that you made a conscious decision
to do this, because I'm assuming these

1032
01:24:06.439 --> 01:24:10.840
are not just like viral videos that
they've just compiled. These are these are

1033
01:24:10.920 --> 01:24:15.640
produced videos of people doing stupid things. Right, So there's that, and

1034
01:24:15.720 --> 01:24:17.720
there's also and so if you are
stripping out all of that, then it

1035
01:24:17.960 --> 01:24:20.800
does kind of send a message that, hey, look at all of these

1036
01:24:20.880 --> 01:24:25.640
white people doing stupid stuff. Well, so, like, so, are

1037
01:24:25.680 --> 01:24:28.760
you trying to win back? Are
you trying to win back? Are you

1038
01:24:28.840 --> 01:24:31.560
trying to win back the white frat
boys? Is that the idea by saying,

1039
01:24:31.600 --> 01:24:33.439
hey, yeah, you're so good? No, no, no,

1040
01:24:33.720 --> 01:24:39.880
you're so close. There's one more
layer, there's one more layer. Yeah,

1041
01:24:41.720 --> 01:24:45.880
that's bud, that's Bud Light admitting
that they agree with her because they

1042
01:24:46.039 --> 01:24:53.039
feel that if they're going to win
back their audience, Yeah, that they

1043
01:24:53.199 --> 01:24:57.520
assume that their audience is a bunch
of bigots and races? Am I wrong?

1044
01:24:57.680 --> 01:24:59.319
Right? So we got yeah?
No, yeah, you're right,

1045
01:24:59.520 --> 01:25:00.920
I mean the yeah, obviously,
if that's who they're targeting, Hey,

1046
01:25:01.000 --> 01:25:05.239
white frat boys, drink our beer
again, We're sorry, we messed up

1047
01:25:05.239 --> 01:25:09.119
too. Like I would like,
if you're actually doing some kind of video

1048
01:25:09.199 --> 01:25:13.439
like that, why not put Dylan
mulvaney in that video? Right, if

1049
01:25:13.479 --> 01:25:16.039
you're I mean, if that's your
if that's your mayacolpa supposedly, Oh,

1050
01:25:16.079 --> 01:25:19.840
we're so sorry to have offended you, here's a bunch of white people doing

1051
01:25:19.920 --> 01:25:24.239
stupid stuff, and so look,
we're just like you. And that's their

1052
01:25:24.359 --> 01:25:29.279
idea of who their audience is.
It sounds like like yeah, and and

1053
01:25:29.439 --> 01:25:32.359
so that's like here you look,
I speak, you're learning question your can

1054
01:25:32.479 --> 01:25:36.319
on my forehead? Yeah, like
that's that. It's kind of infigation insulting.

1055
01:25:39.039 --> 01:25:41.399
Yeah, there's a trick to it
though. Okay, yeah, you

1056
01:25:41.439 --> 01:25:45.319
got to kind of pinch the can
first. You tell do not like telling

1057
01:25:45.359 --> 01:25:48.239
people where you fish or you're fledding
hill? No, no, no,

1058
01:25:48.319 --> 01:25:53.479
no, no, no no.
This is me helping our loyal audience to

1059
01:25:54.560 --> 01:25:58.199
outperform other people's audiences. Do you
know what I'm saying. I want to

1060
01:25:58.760 --> 01:26:00.920
spin. I want people when they
do stuff that amazes other people to go

1061
01:26:01.079 --> 01:26:05.720
And I listened to Casey and Pete. No, but that's but that's the

1062
01:26:05.880 --> 01:26:11.039
current marketing structure of bud Light,
even with her on a sabbatical or whatever

1063
01:26:11.039 --> 01:26:15.920
the hell that is. Um,
that's them basically saying the same thing she

1064
01:26:16.119 --> 01:26:20.319
said. We assume that our core
audience doesn't like these things because there are

1065
01:26:20.319 --> 01:26:24.119
a bunch of racists and bigots.
So we're gonna tailor a commercial to them.

1066
01:26:24.560 --> 01:26:28.840
It's arguably doubling down. Man.
Yeah, well yeah, I mean

1067
01:26:29.439 --> 01:26:31.239
yeah, and that's the thing that
that's the thing that got them into trouble

1068
01:26:31.279 --> 01:26:34.720
in the first place. And it's
a it maybe and maybe it is.

1069
01:26:35.359 --> 01:26:39.000
Maybe they do know their audience.
I don't know, like, but they're

1070
01:26:39.039 --> 01:26:43.520
making assumptions about all of the people
in their audience based on what is apparently

1071
01:26:43.640 --> 01:26:46.439
just a racial and gender demographic.
Yeah. I got a minute and a

1072
01:26:46.479 --> 01:26:50.439
half. I'm gonna get into more
of the details coming up here in the

1073
01:26:50.560 --> 01:26:56.920
show. There's a conspiracy that even
though the Navy's sub was able to detect

1074
01:26:57.000 --> 01:27:00.319
the implosion of the submersible, don't
call it us up going to visit the

1075
01:27:00.399 --> 01:27:06.319
Titanic, they waited until yesterday to
cover up the whistle blower testimony. All

1076
01:27:06.359 --> 01:27:11.359
right board with that? Oh my
god, No, no, no,

1077
01:27:11.800 --> 01:27:15.439
that I think. I mean,
I would like to know the TikTok on

1078
01:27:15.600 --> 01:27:17.640
on who made what calls to let
stuff out? Now as I understand that

1079
01:27:17.640 --> 01:27:23.039
the Navy had the information and gave
it over, but it's a sensitive kind

1080
01:27:23.039 --> 01:27:25.720
of program, which when I read
it, I thought, wow, we're

1081
01:27:25.920 --> 01:27:30.159
listening underwater around the Titanic, Like, how many of these microphones do we

1082
01:27:30.239 --> 01:27:33.399
have in the ocean, because it's
pretty big, you know. But yeah,

1083
01:27:33.640 --> 01:27:35.880
so that's the first question. And
the other thing is you let the

1084
01:27:36.000 --> 01:27:44.359
families think for four days that their
loved ones were suffocating to death and when

1085
01:27:44.399 --> 01:27:47.760
in fact they had actually probably died
instantly, you know, and beyond instantly.

1086
01:27:47.840 --> 01:27:51.079
I sorry to catch you off.
I got about fifteen seconds, but

1087
01:27:53.880 --> 01:27:56.239
we'll get into more of that,
and I'm sure Pete you're probably gonna mention

1088
01:27:56.319 --> 01:28:00.640
that coming up new into three or
von later, so they're just a little

1089
01:28:00.680 --> 01:28:02.960
bit probably all right, Thanks sir, appreciate it, and we will be

1090
01:28:03.159 --> 01:28:06.760
right back. Hang on, and
I'm Martin Hooch, the inventor of Navaz

1091
01:28:06.840 --> 01:28:13.279
and nasal Care, Your Day Smarter
one O six one FM Talk and News

1092
01:28:13.319 --> 01:28:26.800
Talk WPTI more with Casey starts.
Now. All right, let's go ahead,

1093
01:28:26.840 --> 01:28:30.159
and oh I was gonna say,
deep diet, Let's not do that.

1094
01:28:30.840 --> 01:28:35.720
Um let's talk about the the submersible
for a moment, because there's a

1095
01:28:35.800 --> 01:28:40.560
lot going on here, and I
gotta tell you it was quite the rabbit

1096
01:28:40.600 --> 01:28:45.319
hole yesterday of various conspiracy theories.
And there's three bigot well, there's two

1097
01:28:45.439 --> 01:28:53.840
big ones and then there's another one
that I'll share with you. The rosters

1098
01:28:53.920 --> 01:28:58.079
dubbed in and refer what'd you call
it the stupidest thing you've heard? I

1099
01:28:58.239 --> 01:29:00.560
mean, you know, high am
with conspiracy theory. I love it,

1100
01:29:00.760 --> 01:29:05.359
and it's just it's weak but doesn't
have a certain estalgia it does. However,

1101
01:29:05.439 --> 01:29:09.720
I had not heard that one before, and maybe that's what it is,

1102
01:29:10.119 --> 01:29:14.399
because it's like currently if there's a
conspiracy theory. And don't get me

1103
01:29:14.439 --> 01:29:19.560
wrong, lots of conspiracy theories are
government related on got it, but it's

1104
01:29:19.600 --> 01:29:26.479
like there is a need to partisanly
drag it, right, Some conspiracy theories

1105
01:29:27.000 --> 01:29:30.479
exist with government being part of it, but it's it doesn't feel like a

1106
01:29:30.640 --> 01:29:38.319
partisan thing. It's just government at
all. And nowadays we have a conspiracy

1107
01:29:38.399 --> 01:29:45.000
theory, it's because you know they're
and then it's meant to specifically attack an

1108
01:29:45.119 --> 01:29:53.800
individual candidate for their partisanship versus I'm
not describing this well. And especially here's

1109
01:29:53.840 --> 01:29:57.960
the thing too, it's very hard
to speak clearly for people who are conspiratorially

1110
01:29:58.039 --> 01:30:03.239
minded because now they think I'm in
on it. So so one and this

1111
01:30:03.479 --> 01:30:05.520
is this is let me give you
an example of what I think is a

1112
01:30:05.640 --> 01:30:13.000
very partisan conspiracy theory. So now
we find out that the US Navy,

1113
01:30:13.720 --> 01:30:20.640
as part of their listening program,
is an approgram. And Pete and I

1114
01:30:20.720 --> 01:30:24.399
were just talking about this, and
I had several people email me, go,

1115
01:30:24.520 --> 01:30:29.319
we've had listening devices and you know, the entrance to Major US Harbor

1116
01:30:29.439 --> 01:30:32.439
since World War Two. I understand
that, But the Titanic is not in

1117
01:30:32.640 --> 01:30:38.800
US waters. It's like a thousand
miles from Long Island, Okay, But

1118
01:30:39.199 --> 01:30:43.119
that does I understand that they're listening. That being said, and I talked

1119
01:30:43.159 --> 01:30:46.840
about this the other day. I
found it very hard to understand, with

1120
01:30:47.359 --> 01:30:53.520
everything that we have, even at
twelve thousand feet under the water, that

1121
01:30:53.760 --> 01:30:59.760
the technology doesn't exist, technology that
we would have developed not for finding some

1122
01:31:00.119 --> 01:31:06.960
ercibles, but rather for finding enemy
submarines to know what's up. Then I

1123
01:31:08.079 --> 01:31:11.399
found that very hard to believe.
And I was vindicated. I was correct

1124
01:31:12.000 --> 01:31:16.000
because we find out that they did
know, and in fact, they actually

1125
01:31:16.199 --> 01:31:24.640
heard the implosion of the submersible.
And there's there's a lot of conspiracies,

1126
01:31:24.680 --> 01:31:28.399
and then I'll get to the science. Okay, So conspiracy number one,

1127
01:31:28.760 --> 01:31:32.359
even though they knew for days,
which we referenced with Pete they didn't say

1128
01:31:32.399 --> 01:31:39.760
anything, and they waited until they
knew the whistleblower testimony, which is pretty

1129
01:31:39.920 --> 01:31:45.000
crazy, and I'm gonna do that
in the next segment, but I kind

1130
01:31:45.000 --> 01:31:46.159
of held off because I know all
the other shows are going to beat it

1131
01:31:46.239 --> 01:31:53.760
to death. They knew, and
they waited until the news cycle had negative

1132
01:31:53.840 --> 01:31:57.479
things for Joe Biden, so then
they put it in there. Now,

1133
01:31:57.560 --> 01:32:00.920
to Pete's point, there was days
that families may have had hope when we

1134
01:32:01.119 --> 01:32:08.600
knew, and that's pretty messed up. Actually, remember yesterday when we started

1135
01:32:08.640 --> 01:32:12.079
the show, because the clock was
running, they said they had an hour

1136
01:32:12.199 --> 01:32:15.119
of air left. And if you're
one of the family members and for three

1137
01:32:15.199 --> 01:32:18.439
days you thought you're you know,
there's a chance, and the government knew

1138
01:32:18.479 --> 01:32:26.039
there wasn't. But I also get
the argument that although they didn't hold to

1139
01:32:26.159 --> 01:32:30.359
it where you want to kind of
stay away from revealing the technology that you

1140
01:32:30.479 --> 01:32:33.760
have, but then they went and
did it. So what's the point.

1141
01:32:33.960 --> 01:32:39.239
Why did you wait? So that's
conspiracy number one. I'll let you debate

1142
01:32:39.319 --> 01:32:47.199
whether that was the reason for the
season, all right. Conspiracy number two,

1143
01:32:48.439 --> 01:32:55.800
if I can, for just a
moment that involves the Federal Reserve Ross.

1144
01:32:55.840 --> 01:32:59.640
You've probably heard this one, right, the reason the Titanicus that is

1145
01:32:59.680 --> 01:33:01.439
the most popular one. Yeah,
it's that there was like four of the

1146
01:33:02.279 --> 01:33:05.560
biggest billionaires whatever in the planet and
there who didn't want the federalies, right,

1147
01:33:05.800 --> 01:33:09.880
and that it was sunk by what
is it, like the Rothchilds or

1148
01:33:09.920 --> 01:33:12.720
something. So of course it goes
back to the Jews, right, Yeah,

1149
01:33:13.199 --> 01:33:15.880
man, the Jews are busy.
I'll tell you what. That is

1150
01:33:15.279 --> 01:33:18.319
the most typical one. That's the
most popular theory though. I was just

1151
01:33:18.399 --> 01:33:21.800
telling Ross off the air because you
guys know, I went on vacation and

1152
01:33:21.880 --> 01:33:26.119
I went to Colombia and Ecuador,
and I want to go back to South

1153
01:33:26.159 --> 01:33:29.720
America. But I feel like I
want to go to one of those like

1154
01:33:30.159 --> 01:33:35.359
German enclaves. Remember we ran the
TikTok where these like these stupid tourists like

1155
01:33:35.479 --> 01:33:39.600
where we're in Brazil now or where
were they? They're in Argentina. We're

1156
01:33:39.600 --> 01:33:43.239
in Argentina and wouldn't you We drove
up to the mountains and there's a whole

1157
01:33:43.399 --> 01:33:45.319
German village here and it was like, you don't know why that's there?

1158
01:33:45.479 --> 01:33:51.560
Do you? I want to go
to one of those? Is that weird?

1159
01:33:51.640 --> 01:33:54.600
That I want to go to one
of those. I just want to

1160
01:33:54.720 --> 01:33:58.000
see it and be like what.
It's fascinating because it's so out of place.

1161
01:33:58.039 --> 01:34:00.960
It's like you're down in you know, South America and you're in Bavaria.

1162
01:34:00.319 --> 01:34:04.640
Yeah. The architecture, the people, the language, it's so weird.

1163
01:34:05.079 --> 01:34:09.640
And they speak German. I actually
German is when I took in a

1164
01:34:09.720 --> 01:34:13.920
high school, so I have like
this very small like there's a few words.

1165
01:34:13.960 --> 01:34:16.680
I like German because all the words
are American. Were not all the

1166
01:34:16.720 --> 01:34:20.359
words, but a lot of the
words are or English but pronounced as though

1167
01:34:20.479 --> 01:34:24.399
you're drunk out of your mind.
Oh yeah, I also took in high

1168
01:34:24.399 --> 01:34:27.439
school. I took in middle school
too, like eight years or something.

1169
01:34:27.560 --> 01:34:32.399
Ridiculous of German. How do you
say water? You know apple? I

1170
01:34:32.520 --> 01:34:36.800
don't remember, right, it's just
drunk. And then so if you just

1171
01:34:36.920 --> 01:34:40.680
get drunk, then you speak the
language. I'm pretty sure. My theory

1172
01:34:40.840 --> 01:34:44.640
at the time was that, you
know, Germany was responsible for World War

1173
01:34:44.800 --> 01:34:47.239
This is me thinking in like fifth
sixth grade, right, parents, no

1174
01:34:47.359 --> 01:34:51.279
outside information, me assessing the situation, coming to my own conclusion, like

1175
01:34:51.640 --> 01:34:56.920
Germany World War One, Germany World
War two. I've better learned German because

1176
01:34:56.920 --> 01:34:59.960
the next time it's going to be
Germany. That's fair, that's fair,

1177
01:35:00.439 --> 01:35:02.760
you know, in a in a
way, I've actually heard people promote Spanish

1178
01:35:02.880 --> 01:35:08.359
language like uh rosetta stone and whatnot, going where they're where. They're politely

1179
01:35:08.479 --> 01:35:12.640
suggesting you better get on board,
and frankly, um, well, in

1180
01:35:12.760 --> 01:35:15.199
retrospect, I should have chosen Spanish. Well that's the thing. That's the

1181
01:35:15.319 --> 01:35:19.039
thing too, right, Like it
makes sense now. Um who there's a

1182
01:35:19.199 --> 01:35:23.720
TikTok or that TikTok or YouTuber name. Um, I don't know what his

1183
01:35:23.800 --> 01:35:27.079
real name is. He goes by
Chome and he's just he's just like New

1184
01:35:27.159 --> 01:35:30.439
York white dude. He speaks like
almost perfect Chinese. He speaks like all

1185
01:35:30.479 --> 01:35:35.680
the dial it's fantastic, like fruit
markets, bus up, you know.

1186
01:35:36.039 --> 01:35:42.800
Um uh like uh different weird dialects
and people are like, oh my gosh.

1187
01:35:43.199 --> 01:35:45.520
But he all he learned Spanish in
like ten minutes, which irritated me.

1188
01:35:46.159 --> 01:35:51.119
Um, but like, if you
have Chinese in Spanish, you're probably

1189
01:35:51.279 --> 01:35:56.640
good because Spanish. The one thing
I've learned about Spanish is I've been learning

1190
01:35:56.720 --> 01:36:01.680
it is it And this is why
European people are so comfortable traveling. So

1191
01:36:01.840 --> 01:36:06.720
many of the words are carryovers,
like they're very close. I now know

1192
01:36:06.880 --> 01:36:11.920
like six ways to ask for a
straw that would work in like a ton

1193
01:36:12.000 --> 01:36:16.319
of countries. So if you can
lock Chinese down in Spanish, when Ross's

1194
01:36:16.600 --> 01:36:19.560
healthscape gets here, you're probably going
to be You're gonna be able to argue

1195
01:36:19.600 --> 01:36:23.840
against your own execution, which is
good. You want to be able to

1196
01:36:23.920 --> 01:36:30.399
do that. So we got federal
reserve, we got Biden staging the announcement,

1197
01:36:30.479 --> 01:36:42.239
whatever, but also we had a
reinvigorated reinvigorated Other Titanic conspiracies hit in

1198
01:36:42.279 --> 01:36:44.880
the TikTok, and I just want
to share what one of those sounds like.

1199
01:36:45.039 --> 01:36:47.920
The Titanic never truly went under.
Everyone is familiar with the tale of

1200
01:36:48.000 --> 01:36:53.760
the unstoppable ship that perished after colliding
with an iceberg, but perhaps that isn't

1201
01:36:53.800 --> 01:36:58.359
the case. Apparently, the Titanic's
owners owned both the Titanic and the Olympic.

1202
01:36:58.640 --> 01:37:02.399
The Olympian was an elderly vessel that
had sustained significant damage on prior voyages.

1203
01:37:02.680 --> 01:37:05.720
It was rumored that the Olympics owners
only wanted to get rid of it

1204
01:37:05.840 --> 01:37:10.520
since it was no longer lucrative.
As a result, the owners replaced the

1205
01:37:10.640 --> 01:37:14.560
Titanic with the Olympic just before it
sets sail in order to recover some of

1206
01:37:14.640 --> 01:37:18.039
the insurance proceeds used to fund the
RMS Olympic. A few minutes prior to

1207
01:37:18.119 --> 01:37:24.319
the Titanic's departure, several of the
most influential passengers, including JP Morgan,

1208
01:37:24.640 --> 01:37:28.479
pulled out of the trip. All
right, so that's what you get on

1209
01:37:28.520 --> 01:37:31.479
the TikTok. And I gotta tell
you, there's a certain nostalgia to it

1210
01:37:31.600 --> 01:37:36.399
just because it feels old school,
but it's really weak. So your theory

1211
01:37:36.720 --> 01:37:43.880
is that it's an insurance scam.
I'll know about all that, but I

1212
01:37:44.079 --> 01:37:47.079
appreciate varieties. So there you go. Let me hit you with some reality

1213
01:37:47.119 --> 01:37:50.640
real quick. Then we get to
weather. I found this fascinating reading this

1214
01:37:50.800 --> 01:37:59.319
yesterday on what is obviously a very
morbid topic. And it is the speed

1215
01:37:59.439 --> 01:38:06.119
at which that the collapse of the
submersible likely happened. And the speed is

1216
01:38:08.640 --> 01:38:15.199
much faster than your brain works,
because the pressure at twelve thousand feet is

1217
01:38:15.439 --> 01:38:23.720
bonkers, obviously. So a couple
of people have done a little analysis on

1218
01:38:23.920 --> 01:38:28.920
this, and including former Navy officials
who have spoke out here we go this

1219
01:38:29.079 --> 01:38:32.920
is what I was looking for,
And in it they document the fact that

1220
01:38:33.279 --> 01:38:38.439
the collapse, and I don't just
mean a collapse like you're going to feel

1221
01:38:38.479 --> 01:38:43.479
it around you, but I mean
a total collapse followed by an explosion that

1222
01:38:43.680 --> 01:38:55.520
would literally incinerate or eviscerate all parts
of a human took place in a millisecond.

1223
01:38:57.039 --> 01:39:00.239
And I have seen estimates that say
that the very fastest your brain can

1224
01:39:00.359 --> 01:39:04.479
process is five milliseconds ross. Would
you say numbe was twenty five that you

1225
01:39:04.640 --> 01:39:12.119
read one hundred twenty five? The
point is, whatever happened, they don't

1226
01:39:12.159 --> 01:39:16.359
even know, Like the people in
there had no idea. And in a

1227
01:39:16.520 --> 01:39:23.600
strange way, I feel like if
you'd have told families that three days ago

1228
01:39:24.800 --> 01:39:29.359
would have been slightly more comforting,
I mean sarcastic here obviously would be a

1229
01:39:29.399 --> 01:39:34.159
lot more. Would you rather know
that your family member died and probably didn't

1230
01:39:34.159 --> 01:39:40.520
even realize it, not even probably
didn't realize it? Right? It's the

1231
01:39:40.720 --> 01:39:45.479
science here is they're done, they
don't even don't exist. Or for three

1232
01:39:45.640 --> 01:39:47.560
days sitting there with a clock in
front of you, going how much air

1233
01:39:47.640 --> 01:39:50.000
do they? Yeah? Because Marky
and they were talking about this yesterday when

1234
01:39:50.039 --> 01:39:54.920
the story broke. You know of
that obviously, you know they passed and

1235
01:39:54.960 --> 01:40:00.039
they the implosion actually hold on to
the store. I'm sorry, didn't just

1236
01:40:00.119 --> 01:40:01.119
looked at the clock. I'm so
screwed. All right, real quick,

1237
01:40:01.399 --> 01:40:04.279
we'll go right back to Ross,
ken Boon, real quick. What you

1238
01:40:04.319 --> 01:40:08.199
got for weather, sir? Sorry
to be late, no problem. Cloudy

1239
01:40:08.239 --> 01:40:11.800
and warm out there today. Showers
and storms for us here today as we

1240
01:40:11.840 --> 01:40:14.479
finished out the business week, we're
into the low eighties, but a drier

1241
01:40:14.600 --> 01:40:17.359
trend to the weather as we look
towards the weekend, partly to mostly cloudy

1242
01:40:17.399 --> 01:40:20.399
overnight low sixties, and then as
we headed to Saturday Sunday, a little

1243
01:40:20.399 --> 01:40:25.079
more sunshine mixes up with the cloud
slight chance of storms tomorrow, mid eighties,

1244
01:40:25.119 --> 01:40:28.039
close to ninety with sunshine Sunday.
All right, ken Boon, Thank

1245
01:40:28.079 --> 01:40:30.600
you, sir. We'll come back
chat with Jeff Belinger and we'll finish Ross's

1246
01:40:30.640 --> 01:40:45.960
story next. Hang on, keeping
you connected. This is ninety four five

1247
01:40:45.239 --> 01:40:50.319
WPTI in the Triad and one oh
six one FM Talk in the Triangle.

1248
01:40:50.760 --> 01:40:55.760
All right, eight fifty four Jeff
Bellinger, what's going on, sir?

1249
01:40:56.239 --> 01:41:00.800
Welcome morning, Casey. Stock market
futures have been lower all Morning Dow futures

1250
01:41:00.800 --> 01:41:04.479
are down two hundred six points now. There was a partial rebound and consumer

1251
01:41:04.520 --> 01:41:10.680
spending last month, led by high
income earners. Morning consult reports spending was

1252
01:41:10.800 --> 01:41:15.399
up a little more than six percent
in May after declines in March and April.

1253
01:41:15.600 --> 01:41:20.079
Wealthier Americans were spending more on vacations
and travel that offset cutbacks by those

1254
01:41:20.159 --> 01:41:25.279
with lower incomes. The risk of
a recession has lessened in the view of

1255
01:41:25.359 --> 01:41:29.640
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. She says
strength in the job market could be what

1256
01:41:29.800 --> 01:41:33.239
keeps the economy growing. The balance
of power in the workplace is shifting.

1257
01:41:33.319 --> 01:41:38.439
It's not so much a worker's market
anymore. Bosses are getting some of their

1258
01:41:38.520 --> 01:41:43.479
cloud back. Experts say employers have
become choosier about who they hire, and

1259
01:41:43.640 --> 01:41:46.840
workers have turned more cautious when it
comes to quitting. And the beef industry

1260
01:41:46.920 --> 01:41:50.880
had its competitive eye on the wrong
prize Casey. It had been focusing on

1261
01:41:51.079 --> 01:41:57.439
plant based meat alternatives. Consumer interest
in the products is fading, but chicken

1262
01:41:57.920 --> 01:42:01.359
is widening its lead over beef.
The average American will lead about one hundred

1263
01:42:01.399 --> 01:42:06.199
pounds of chicken this year average beef
consumption about half that amount. Casey,

1264
01:42:06.680 --> 01:42:11.319
did you see the story where like
Elon Musk and Zuckerberg might cage fight?

1265
01:42:11.720 --> 01:42:17.479
Did you see? I did not? Who do you got? I don't

1266
01:42:17.479 --> 01:42:21.399
know. Musk seems bigger and more
muscular, but who knows. Who do

1267
01:42:21.479 --> 01:42:25.720
you want to fight at Bloomberg?
Like? I think you can take Stephanie

1268
01:42:25.800 --> 01:42:30.159
Rule and Tom Kane, but I
don't know. Man, that's that's possible.

1269
01:42:30.560 --> 01:42:33.800
Okay, I don't want to fight
my co workers. Okay, all

1270
01:42:33.920 --> 01:42:36.000
right, all right, you know, thank you sir, have a good

1271
01:42:36.039 --> 01:42:39.520
week. Okay, you have a
nice weekend. Take all right? Look

1272
01:42:39.520 --> 01:42:45.600
at that? What do you think
his? Uh? Ross? What do

1273
01:42:45.680 --> 01:42:50.199
you what do you think jeff skill
set is crab McGaw, Brazilian jiu jitsu.

1274
01:42:51.399 --> 01:42:56.960
I think he's more a brawler.
What do you do you think he

1275
01:42:57.039 --> 01:43:01.560
can crush the brick of your choosing
Zack the demok I'm not sure? Oh

1276
01:43:01.680 --> 01:43:05.359
wow, okay, I imagine I'm
doing the old timey boxer stance, you

1277
01:43:05.439 --> 01:43:09.319
know, yeah, yeah yeah,
with the with the fists like up in

1278
01:43:09.359 --> 01:43:15.239
the air waving around. I'd be
the best. Uh Anyway, who do

1279
01:43:15.319 --> 01:43:19.760
you want to fight in at the
in the iHeart family anybody you, I

1280
01:43:19.840 --> 01:43:26.159
mean, that wouldn't go well for
you. I know you pretty overweight I

1281
01:43:26.319 --> 01:43:32.840
am, but I would install.
I would utilize what I am so poed

1282
01:43:32.880 --> 01:43:38.800
they're not utilizing in the whole Zuck
Musk, how do you have those two?

1283
01:43:39.319 --> 01:43:41.000
For those of you don't know this
story, and then we'll get back

1284
01:43:41.000 --> 01:43:49.319
to the sub real quick, here
we go. Musk reacted to report from

1285
01:43:49.359 --> 01:43:55.399
Meta's Twitter rival. Apparently Meta chief
product officer Chris Cox So the company has

1286
01:43:55.439 --> 01:43:59.399
been hearing from creators blah blah blah
blah blah. Zuckerberg has been training in

1287
01:43:59.520 --> 01:44:02.199
Brazilian jiu jitsu for about a year. Did you see the video of him

1288
01:44:02.239 --> 01:44:04.680
getting choked out? Yeah, I've
seen it. And the thing is like

1289
01:44:04.800 --> 01:44:08.680
Musk is like tired. I mentioned
he's exhausted. You know, he's not

1290
01:44:08.800 --> 01:44:13.439
exactly in perfect physical shape and all
right, but here's where they're dropping the

1291
01:44:13.479 --> 01:44:15.800
ball on this, and I think
you're gonna greet him with me before we

1292
01:44:15.920 --> 01:44:24.079
fight. We can beat the undercard
if you don't let these two use technology

1293
01:44:24.159 --> 01:44:27.880
to fight. What do you do
You're thinking like Iron Man versus Batman?

1294
01:44:28.319 --> 01:44:31.640
Yes, wouldn't that make this a
thousand times better. It's like, all

1295
01:44:31.680 --> 01:44:35.880
right, brainiacs, whatever you want
to come up with, good to go

1296
01:44:39.039 --> 01:44:44.039
you. This would be the ultimate
pay per view if you let them mech

1297
01:44:44.800 --> 01:44:46.319
right, I want to say,
yeah, they're saying right now. Even

1298
01:44:46.359 --> 01:44:49.399
without the technology, it's like it
would be like one hundred dollars pay per

1299
01:44:49.479 --> 01:44:53.800
view. Can you imagine you adding
all like all the toys and stuff.

1300
01:44:54.039 --> 01:44:56.640
Yeah, you're like, all right, just you can't use your team.

1301
01:44:56.800 --> 01:45:00.800
You guys come up with stuff.
It'd be all over that anyway, real

1302
01:45:00.880 --> 01:45:03.520
quick on the sub So, yeah, I checked this. It's one millisecond.

1303
01:45:03.560 --> 01:45:08.760
Twenty five millisecond is subconscious reaction.
One hundred and fifty is conscious.

1304
01:45:09.279 --> 01:45:15.399
So your wife only saw this yesterday. Craziness man, So you probably don't

1305
01:45:15.399 --> 01:45:17.199
have time to give you the rest
of your stuff, So I'm sorry.

1306
01:45:19.159 --> 01:45:21.319
Yeah, dude, I would hit
you. You know, I trained with

1307
01:45:21.439 --> 01:45:24.680
Pie May. Right, you'd pass
out before you got in the cage,

1308
01:45:25.079 --> 01:45:29.479
Pie May, Pie May. How
do you like your eyes? Are they

1309
01:45:29.520 --> 01:45:34.079
good? They work for you?
Because let's just say I got some stuff,

1310
01:45:34.760 --> 01:45:36.159
all right, we gotta roll.
Have a good weekend.
