00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:40.359
Have you ever been You ever been
to a point where you're like, I

2
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:43.920
am so lost, I'm gonna have
to just get some sticks, build a

3
00:00:44.439 --> 00:00:49.880
lean to and start over here.
All right, maybe you haven't been that

4
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:56.439
lost, but there was a moment
yesterday. I gotta tell you. I

5
00:00:56.439 --> 00:01:00.240
I don't often get to all of
the little parts of our listening area.

6
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:03.640
I shouldn't say little. Obviously,
we cover between the Try and the Triangle

7
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:10.280
a big chunk of space. But
yesterday I was running around. I was

8
00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:14.159
doing I had some various client meetings. Right. So, one's in North

9
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:18.200
Hills, that's pretty easy, it's
pretty near the station. One's up on

10
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:22.359
ligand Mill as you're headed up towards
wake Forest, and the other one is

11
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:27.159
off of Calvin Jones. Okay,
And I have to admit it's been a

12
00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:33.359
while since I've been that far north
in the in the area of wake Forest,

13
00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:37.599
other than on just you know,
Highway one going places. So I

14
00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:40.439
go to this, I go to
this meeting whatever, and I'm like,

15
00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:45.599
I want some lunch, and I
remember there's a little there's a deli up

16
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:49.599
in Youngsville, and I'm far enough
north and I remember that the last I

17
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:53.439
ate a sandwich there one time it
was pretty good, and so I was

18
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:57.719
going to go up to that deli, and so I put it in the

19
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:01.079
old you know, it's got Navi
Geishen in there, clicking in the navigation,

20
00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:05.319
and rather than running me all the
way up to one, it starts

21
00:02:05.359 --> 00:02:10.479
turning me northward through these neighborhoods.
And I know about traditions and all that

22
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:17.280
area up there. I was in
there for like fifteen minutes before I ever

23
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:21.840
hit anything that didn't look like one
of the homes and the traditions thing,

24
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:24.360
and it was like this old,
historical little neighborhood jammed in the middle there,

25
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:29.240
and then it's just more of that
build out ross. I swear that

26
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:34.080
area north of you is bigger than
any city in Wyoming. I told you,

27
00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:37.240
I hate to say, it told
you so, what it told you

28
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:42.759
so? And like it's it's massive
construction and apartment companies everywhere. Yeah,

29
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:47.840
they're still building away many every like
three blocks there's a construction crew doing something.

30
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:51.120
Even on Liggoland Mill, they're widening
it over there. Yeah. The

31
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:53.360
wake forest you knew even like five
years ago, doesn't exist anymore. It

32
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:58.599
is nothing. It's not there.
I like The only time I ever really

33
00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:00.639
get that far north over there is
like we had it, They'll be like

34
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:04.919
a meat there's like a media golf
thing that happens. It has a Hasten

35
00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:07.240
tree, Hassan tree or whatever.
But that's not even over there. That's

36
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.919
kind of you know, that's west
of there. And I just go up

37
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:15.159
Highway one for that. That's easy
enough. But that explains why Capital and

38
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:23.400
then Highway one North is such a
nightmare at at around five o'clock, just

39
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:25.520
brutal. And then when I do
go up to wake Forest or like,

40
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:30.719
you don't live that far north,
so I'm you know, I'm basically concentrated

41
00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:34.280
into the downtown area of wake Forest. If I if I, for whatever

42
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:37.840
reason, was to go near where
you are, I did not swing by

43
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:39.840
to see the monstrosity blodding out your
son though, because I was kind of

44
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:44.319
over on the other side. But
I was curious, son. They're really

45
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:49.039
nice. They're starting really low two
in the four hundreds, so that's great

46
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:52.439
for four hundred thousand. Yeah,
you can look at your back patio and

47
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.400
see my property. So right,
with the Henge, I hate you all

48
00:03:55.479 --> 00:04:00.680
so much. With the hene Henge. Did do you want to Henge View

49
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:04.400
or a road view. I would
think, I think you think you want

50
00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:11.199
the Henge View until there's some weird
ceremony going on over there, and it's

51
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:17.319
just like you can't blot it out. But yeah, man, oh,

52
00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:23.920
I had no idea what was going
on up there. Raleigh never made sense

53
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:27.279
to me in where they do choose
to build out and where they don't even

54
00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:30.000
going back, you know, a
decade or something to go. And they

55
00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:32.480
got they got a couple of things
working out working against them to try to

56
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:36.839
get an even spacing of everything,
right, because you have the state park

57
00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:41.800
going up Glenwood there, and so
you have this huge slice of what you

58
00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:45.160
would call the pie where you can't
build anything. And then if you go

59
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:48.720
south of town like five minutes,
all that land is owned by NC State

60
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:53.879
for their agricultural stuff, so it's
not developable. Although that's a problem.

61
00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:56.639
I wonder if they're gonna run like
in Minneapolis, they ran into that with

62
00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:00.600
the University of Minnesota, and the
state came in and found new land for

63
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:04.199
him and kind of forced their hand
to sell their agg property, which turned

64
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:11.800
into some southern suburbs there. But
but yeah, and then for whatever reason,

65
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:14.959
Nightdale doesn't seem as expansive as it
could be for the distance. But

66
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:17.519
no, you're getting all the houses. Man. Did you drive further down

67
00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:23.199
Calvin Jones to where like PDQ was
or is? On the way back?

68
00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:25.480
I cut by there, but I
know where it is. I've been over

69
00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:29.199
there. Did they Did you see
all that construction? Like I was so

70
00:05:29.279 --> 00:05:31.279
overwhelmed with construction. I don't know
if it stood out initially, is it

71
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:35.439
really? Oh? Yeah, you'd
notice, okay now, because I was

72
00:05:35.480 --> 00:05:40.920
coming west on Calvin Jones from you
know, over on the Rollsville side,

73
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:44.399
and I turned right up into Traditions
and then that was it. Yeah,

74
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:46.240
I remember how they used to be
like PDQ in the ale House. Yeah,

75
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:50.000
and then a little and they had
like there's a haircut place there too,

76
00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:53.839
Lady James. Yeah, it's expanded
a bit, a little bit,

77
00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:58.600
just a little like they added another
outbuilding maybe at Applebee's or something a little

78
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:02.600
more than the okay too. So
I just have no reason to drive up

79
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:08.639
there. But I had only crap. I had no idea. And it's

80
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:11.319
not just there. There's a couple
of parts of Greensboro that are that.

81
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:14.120
Every time I go and do a
visit over there. It's just crazy,

82
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:19.120
man. But that wake forth,
they're gonna have to do something because by

83
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:23.600
the time I ended up heading down
because I stopped and saw a buddy when

84
00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:26.920
I was up there. So by
the time I'm headed south on one back

85
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:30.759
into Raleigh, there is it's right, it's you know, it's around four

86
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:36.240
thirty and it looks like it's just
a parking lot headed north. So holy

87
00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:40.920
cal all right, anyway, sorry, I know for a lot of you,

88
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:44.720
you're like, we live up there, we know, yeah, but

89
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.879
you have a four hundred thousand dollars
apartment overlooking Ross's Henge. I bet you

90
00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:54.439
don't, dude, you got a
really red knock up your yard, remember

91
00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:58.959
that guy who had the house and
Kerry. I've already started. I've already

92
00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:01.439
started because before you know, I
try to at least sort of maintain it.

93
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:04.199
Right right now, I'm like,
screw you people. You gotta get

94
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:09.279
a burn barrel out here. Yeah, right, you know it's gonna make

95
00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:13.720
a ford of tires a tire fords. Oh tire fords are good, yeah,

96
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:15.639
and you can then burn those.
It's at certain points, oh well

97
00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:18.759
you have to. Yeah, people
love that. Why would you have the

98
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:21.800
tires if you're not going to burn
them. So if if everybody got a

99
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:26.600
busted car, you could have like
I'd take several yeah no, and you

100
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:30.480
stack them right yeah yeah, yeah
yeah, I'd be amazing. And that's

101
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:33.639
where you get the tires. Right
next to the hinge in my backyard will

102
00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:38.720
be the car hinge. Oh wow, that's like the biggest ball of twine.

103
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:41.120
Tourists will want to come see that. It's like the Boone, big

104
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:44.600
beer, big beer boon, except
this will be real exactly. No.

105
00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:51.319
Yeah, oh that's on record.
That's on record. I mean I'm saying

106
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:57.040
the car hinge wouldn't be real.
Oh oh, because he because you need

107
00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:00.199
to get you know, like you
need to get like the paperwork and all

108
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:01.480
that sort of. I'm not one
for paperwork, dude. If it's a

109
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:07.079
good Redneck yard, you don't need
paperwork. Isn't that why you'd never really

110
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:11.279
technically run for sheriff because paperwork?
Yeah, because this country wasn't built on

111
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:13.519
paperwork, not at all. Isn't
founded on paperwork. And we're in sheer

112
00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:18.720
will and determination as Hayes for sheer
and throwing and throwing off throwing an overthrowing

113
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:22.519
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and
Abraham. Correct, we don't know which

114
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:26.079
Abraham, but one of them.
My goal is, seriously, I want

115
00:08:26.079 --> 00:08:28.120
to make my yard. So when
somebody moves in or like they're taking a

116
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:33.480
tour of these four hundred thousand dollars
monstrosity apartments that destroyed my neighborhood in my

117
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:35.919
block, to go out there and
be like, oh, this is so

118
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:37.000
nice, and then they look at
the back wind and they go nope.

119
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:43.639
You know, they'd be like they'd
be like illegal immigrants coming in and now

120
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:50.639
refusing to go to La telling nah
Man, we want Martha's vineyard, dude.

121
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:58.080
The high cost of living, coupled
with criminal criminal activity concerns, has

122
00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:07.159
for the first time knocked the Los
Angeles area off of the preferred resettlement locations

123
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:13.679
of illegal immigrants coming into the United
States. You're coming from. Cut your

124
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:22.639
head off of Mexico, right,
Sanda Capitano, which you know what that

125
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:28.639
sounds like a wonderful Mexican vacation destination, Sanda Capitano. Ross, you guys

126
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:33.519
want to go into Sanda Capitano.
I'll get you guys some tickets. Everybody

127
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:39.440
goes to Cancun. It's way too
busy. So people are leaving Mexico from

128
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:43.519
you know, Sanda Capitano and coming
up to America and they're like, I

129
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:52.720
don't want to live in La.
It's too dangerous. Craziness. Man.

130
00:09:54.440 --> 00:10:01.840
Among the destinations most requested if if
given a choice seen it do still include

131
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:09.039
California's Central Valley, Washington, and
Nevada due to the cost of living.

132
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:13.440
Uh, the you know, I
guess, the lesser crime rates and the

133
00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:22.360
availability of agricultural work. But Los
Angeles proper, not so much. They've

134
00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:31.120
seen at forty five percent decrease in
the number of folks who are arriving who

135
00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:37.879
want anything to do with greater La, dude, And they probably have relatives

136
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:39.759
in many cases, right, and
they still don't want to go there,

137
00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:45.840
just you know, just out of
sheer, you know, the volume of

138
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:50.799
others who have come come here across
the border just being really located in that

139
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:58.559
area. All told, border patrol
continues to arrest a total of one hundred

140
00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:05.519
and seventy seven thousand said migrants per
month at the Mexican border, of which

141
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:15.159
the majority are then resettled awaiting court
dates. Now, if you go to

142
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:22.320
other countries. You mentioned Martha's Vineyard. There's really the only group that really

143
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:26.000
wants anything to do with the greater
Northeast there is Venezuelan migrants, because there

144
00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:31.960
is a big Venezuelan population in the
New York area. Let's see, and

145
00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:39.480
uh, Dominican immigrants. So though
the majority though Miami remains number one for

146
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:46.559
most immigrants not coming not coming from
a fixed continental country, but rather any

147
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:50.039
of the island nations. Well,
Venezuelan is a fit. Well, I

148
00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:52.919
guess technically they already said New York
there, so yeah, there you go.

149
00:11:52.919 --> 00:11:56.279
They didn't want anything to do with
that, all right. Coming up

150
00:11:56.399 --> 00:12:01.559
on the show, the greatest self
owned via journalist I've seen in a long

151
00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:05.120
time. So let me give you
that. Let me give you the background

152
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:13.960
real quick. So this journalist is
wanting to test the discrimination that may be

153
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:20.639
happening to people who are immigrating from
countries that would have unusual names where the

154
00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:26.360
government is rejecting them even you know, because they're super bigots and they just

155
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:33.679
don't understand. Right, However,
will they will still limit names for you

156
00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:37.759
know, you can't like name your
kid Hitler in some instances, right,

157
00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:45.600
And so what does she do.
So this genius reporter from ABC decides when

158
00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:52.799
her baby's born, she's going to
give him a wildly offensive name I guess

159
00:12:52.799 --> 00:12:56.720
in the eye of the beholder,
and she wanted to see if it would

160
00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:00.320
get through because it wasn't a you
know, a Muslim name, which is

161
00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:03.840
I think the crux of what she's
trying to prove, so that she can

162
00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:07.720
go why would you allow this?
But then you wouldn't allow this traditional Muslim

163
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:11.480
name just because you didn't understand it, because you're a bunch of bigots.

164
00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:20.320
The problem was they didn't reject the
name. So her kid is now this

165
00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:24.919
name? What is that name?
I will tell you when we return on

166
00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:31.120
the case O Day radio program,
keeping you connected. This is ninety four

167
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:35.759
five WPTI in the Triad and one
O six one FM Talk in the Triangle.

168
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:50.840
All right, welcome back into six
twenty five. So journalists kursed in

169
00:13:50.000 --> 00:14:01.639
Drysdale decided to test the policies of
the folks who handle I guess the birth

170
00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:09.159
birth registry. Just to be clear, this is this is Australia. So

171
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:13.600
ABC is the Australian Broadcasting Company,
which is kind of like their PBS.

172
00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:18.000
Okay, they're public right, so
anyway, so she works for the one

173
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:22.440
of the news programs there. She
decides she's going to test this because there's

174
00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:28.600
been concerns that when they do enforce
the restriction where they're able to. The

175
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:35.480
way it works is you submit your
baby name and you can submit an alternative

176
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:39.559
with it. If they reject the
one and then reject the alternative, they

177
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:46.080
will literally name your baby for you. And the problem is is she suspects

178
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:50.600
that there's some bigotry of foot because
if you're a white Australian and you want

179
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:56.639
to name your kids something crazy,
they'll let it go with a few exceptions.

180
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:01.720
But if you are somebody from a
four in country and the name is

181
00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:07.360
is highly unusual but would still be
within I guess the normal range from that

182
00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:18.000
other country, that people are discriminating
against those those immigrants. So she tries

183
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:22.240
to pick a name, thinking,
okay, well they'll have to reject this,

184
00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:26.480
but maybe they won't, and she
I guess she never thought about what

185
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:33.360
would happen if they didn't and they
didn't. So, following the birth of

186
00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:37.919
her third son, as part of
this story endeavor, she submitted and was

187
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:50.759
approved for the child's new name the
child's name methn Fhetamine rules. Your kid

188
00:15:50.840 --> 00:15:56.559
now your kid's day met the pettabe
rules. Lady, it's your kid's your

189
00:15:56.600 --> 00:16:00.960
own kid. Make up a fake
kid, right, do your little undercover

190
00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:08.600
thing? You named your actual kid
meth then fetamine rules. What are you

191
00:16:08.600 --> 00:16:12.320
gonna do now, little methy?
I mean, do you come up with

192
00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:22.320
a nickname? And what if he
gets famous? What if he could play

193
00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:25.840
cricket or wicket or what you know
whatever. It's one of the stupid games

194
00:16:25.879 --> 00:16:30.039
that don't understand where they're like,
oh, we're gonna have a match or

195
00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:33.919
a test and it's gonna last three
days, and for three days on the

196
00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:41.360
TV it's met. Then fetamine rules. Up to tossa googly ball or one

197
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:47.960
oh six one FM Talk and ninety
four five w PTI, two stations driving

198
00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:52.960
the best in talk. This is
Casey O Day and Carolina's Morning News.

199
00:16:56.759 --> 00:17:00.480
All right, welcome back, six
thirty five. You're on the case Day

200
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:06.359
Radio program. Good on the organizers
of the Raleigh Christmas Parade, by the

201
00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:11.559
way, pushing back on this insanity
from the city. So if you remember,

202
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:12.839
it was the end of last week
the city decided, Hey, you

203
00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:17.920
know what, you don't need a
Christmas parade, screw you. We'll do

204
00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:22.000
holiday activities. Yeah, yeah,
no, we know we issued other parade

205
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:27.640
things, and other parades have happened
since the tragedy that happened last Christmas parade.

206
00:17:30.119 --> 00:17:33.279
And then we're gonna kind of intimate
that maybe the parents didn't want it,

207
00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:36.720
so they look like the bad guys
here and it's just garbage, just

208
00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:41.079
garbage, people shifting the blame to
everyone but themselves. You made a decision,

209
00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:45.200
stick with it. Well then they
said, hey, well all right,

210
00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:48.880
maybe we'll let you do it because
people were outraged, rightfully so,

211
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:56.880
but you can't have any motorized anything. And initially I think the Merchant Association

212
00:17:56.000 --> 00:18:00.960
was gonna agree to that, but
like we said on the radiot, don't

213
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:03.799
give these people an out for their
poor decisions. Make them suffocate or suffer

214
00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:08.759
the consequences of their actions. Don't
agree to this. Well, thank god

215
00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:15.480
somebody listened, because the Greater Rally
Merchant Association has presented a new pushback proposal

216
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:21.400
that would allow this and with a
list of safety regulations, which, by

217
00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:25.119
the way, is what the family
of the little girl who was killed asked

218
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:30.200
for and specifically said they didn't want
the parade canceled. You can't do a

219
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:36.559
parade without some motorized something. You
gotta pull, you gotta pull, you

220
00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:41.160
gotta have floats, you need to
be able to transport. You know it

221
00:18:41.200 --> 00:18:44.160
was there was a situation. I
won't give you all the details on it,

222
00:18:44.160 --> 00:18:45.960
but if if the person wants to
have invited her to come on and

223
00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:52.200
talk about it. Or you have
these kids who are literally dealing with horrible

224
00:18:52.359 --> 00:19:00.839
circumstances, whether it's physical disabilities,
developmental disabilities, their parents. They're what

225
00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:07.640
who get to ride in the parade
and it's the greatest thing that's happened to

226
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:12.880
them that year, a year full
of horribleness, and the city of Raleigh

227
00:19:14.039 --> 00:19:17.680
doesn't want to let them have that
opportunity. Some of these kids can't walk

228
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:23.359
and by if they had a motorized
wheelchair, that would be a violation of

229
00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:29.519
the stupid thing that they're proposing.
And they're gonna get tut now. I'm

230
00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:33.440
sorry, you can't do the parade
this year. You can't for a moment

231
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:37.400
in all of the crap that you're
dealing with, be the center of attention

232
00:19:37.599 --> 00:19:47.640
kind of and and throw candy or
wave to people. Or realize your Christmas

233
00:19:47.759 --> 00:19:56.240
dreams because we're sitting here and playing
games. Don't let these people off the

234
00:19:56.279 --> 00:20:00.319
hook for a moment. Let them
explain to some kid whose parents are dead

235
00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:07.160
why he can't go in the Christmas
parade this year? Okay, and film

236
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:12.359
it and put it online. Put
it online of the mayor of Raleigh telling

237
00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:19.160
some kids who's known nothing but tragedy
and heartache this year and perhaps maybe even

238
00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:23.680
for the totality of his life,
that he can't he can't do the Christmas

239
00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:30.160
parade because he's not physically able to
sit there and strut down the parade route.

240
00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:36.880
Make him tell him to their face, bring him over to the city

241
00:20:36.920 --> 00:20:41.640
council meeting. Let them scurry into
the back room like a bunch of cowards.

242
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:45.960
I'm just so sick of this that
we're having to sit here and negotiate

243
00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:55.839
this out. Sorry, just very
just bothered me immensely this morning. All

244
00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:57.200
right, let me grab a call
here, Chris, Chris, what's up.

245
00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:02.000
It's a good morning. Thanks for
taking my calls early. I just

246
00:21:02.039 --> 00:21:03.880
wanted to say, you guys almost
nailed it again. There's a place in

247
00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:10.160
Cali called San Juan Capistrano, so
they could put the Decapistrano there. I

248
00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:14.400
am aware that I was inspired by
San Juan Capistrano, which, by the

249
00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:17.319
way, they have a bunch of
birds that come to the Spanish mission there

250
00:21:17.319 --> 00:21:19.759
and it's kind of a big deal, which is why people. Yeah,

251
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:23.960
but yeah, san Juan de Capitano
is not I did not booger hole it

252
00:21:25.039 --> 00:21:32.319
again, I want to. I
just wanted to throw that out there on

253
00:21:32.359 --> 00:21:34.319
it. But yeah, you know, and that that Raleigh Mare's too busy

254
00:21:34.400 --> 00:21:38.400
drinking with Beth Woods to make any
good decisions. So you know, this

255
00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:41.400
is an easy this is an easy
one to let it. Look, Chris,

256
00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:48.799
Christmas season is about is about things
like peace and love and joy and

257
00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:52.960
even forgiveness. Obviously, would you
consider what the season is about from a

258
00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:56.680
religious standpoint and what that brought about, you know what I'm saying, So

259
00:21:56.880 --> 00:22:00.000
I hear you. Thanks for the
call the Americans say. Look, I

260
00:22:00.119 --> 00:22:07.240
misread the room. I thought I
was trying to do something to save you

261
00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:10.920
know, this, this family from
having to sit there and see the parade

262
00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:18.000
advertisements and perhaps the parade on TV
or hear about it and and relive the

263
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:22.720
tragedy that they themselves are dealing with. But maybe I should have reached out,

264
00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:26.000
And yes, I agree with the
family that we can do things to

265
00:22:26.079 --> 00:22:30.440
make this a safer environment. Let
me get with the organizers of the parade

266
00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:34.559
and explain what it is that you
think we should be doing. We've we've

267
00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:41.200
already enacted these and other parade permittings
that we've done this year, and this

268
00:22:41.279 --> 00:22:44.319
is how we're going to do it, and every it's going to be a

269
00:22:44.359 --> 00:22:48.440
great parade. You say that I
can't sit here and yell at you on

270
00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:53.240
the radio. I got I got, I got nothing. I got nothing

271
00:22:53.279 --> 00:22:56.720
to chew on at that point,
and neither will anybody else, and you'll

272
00:22:56.720 --> 00:23:03.160
look like a decent human being.
But instead, no, you're like death.

273
00:23:03.240 --> 00:23:06.799
Screw them kids. You know it's
that Michael Jordan meme. You don't

274
00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:10.279
know what I'm talking about where it
just says, f them kids. What

275
00:23:10.400 --> 00:23:22.359
a perfect meme use possibility right here? This is it. Yes, I'm

276
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:25.039
aware of the Shriners, but you
know what, I'm gonna hang my hat

277
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:29.680
on kids because I don't know if
you know there's kids, they're big fans

278
00:23:29.680 --> 00:23:34.039
of Christmas. I wish, I
wish to this day I could carry the

279
00:23:34.079 --> 00:23:37.480
same level of excitement for Christmas that
I did when I was eight? Can

280
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:44.200
you imagine? Can you? Can
you imagine how if you as an adult

281
00:23:44.440 --> 00:23:47.960
And I know there's some of you
that go a little Clark Griswold crazy over

282
00:23:47.960 --> 00:23:52.000
this, but admittedly it's still not
like when you were eight, is it?

283
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:56.000
That's that's what's soll of you,
all of your kids. You want

284
00:23:56.000 --> 00:24:00.519
to get older faster. There's reason
one thousand and six sucks. Okay,

285
00:24:00.599 --> 00:24:03.960
you gotta have a job and take
care of yourself, but read the reason

286
00:24:04.039 --> 00:24:08.559
one thousand and six. Christmas will
never feel like it feels for you right

287
00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:15.559
now, never gonna feel the same. So I just caught ross. Do

288
00:24:15.640 --> 00:24:19.759
you think you think you could ever? And maybe it's maybe because you have

289
00:24:19.839 --> 00:24:22.359
a kid, you get a little
more, a bigger slice of it than

290
00:24:22.400 --> 00:24:26.079
I do. But and I also
have a kid who's always kind of gonna

291
00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:32.240
sort of be like a kid in
some respects because of his special needs and

292
00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:36.279
autism. So like Lincoln is in
sixth grade, however, in a lot

293
00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:38.240
of respects, he's still like,
you know, a younger kid, right

294
00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:42.680
right, So I mean we haven't
had you know, yeah, yeah,

295
00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:45.160
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's still very magical for him,

296
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:48.240
but it's still I'm not gonna take
that away from him. I'm not a

297
00:24:48.240 --> 00:24:52.480
monster, you insane, but free. I'm not like the mayor here,

298
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:56.279
you know, to the woman with
the cauldron. Yeah, yeah, I'm

299
00:24:56.279 --> 00:24:59.720
not a grinch. I don't have
that. It's not you know, I'm

300
00:24:59.720 --> 00:25:02.880
not a horrible person, is what
I'm saying. I make jokes about like

301
00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:07.680
gill netting your kids and transporting them
under for twenty five dollars ransoms and all

302
00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:11.759
that, and get off my I
can't imagine sitting there and doing that to

303
00:25:11.799 --> 00:25:14.440
a kid. I don't want to
tell a kid no, unless they're being

304
00:25:14.480 --> 00:25:17.319
a brat, then I'll tell him
no. But like, if I don't

305
00:25:17.319 --> 00:25:19.000
want some kid is just like,
oh, I'm just gonna be amazing.

306
00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:25.440
I don't want to be that guy. I couldn't be that guy. Just

307
00:25:25.559 --> 00:25:27.440
imagine, though, Imagine you are
the mayor. You're in that position,

308
00:25:29.000 --> 00:25:33.720
and it comes across your desk case
should we cancel the Christmas parade? You

309
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:37.640
stamp? Yes, yes, what
kind of a dark, empty soul do

310
00:25:37.720 --> 00:25:41.519
you have? Well I would blame
it on you, of course, because

311
00:25:41.559 --> 00:25:45.960
you want to shift the blame.
I'd be like, I want to I

312
00:25:45.079 --> 00:25:48.279
blame it on the family who had
the tragedy. Yeah yeah, yeah,

313
00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:52.000
oh really, Okay, that's good. That sounds like a good scapegoat there,

314
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:56.400
and what you should definitely do.
How about your blame it on your

315
00:25:56.400 --> 00:26:00.319
staff? Oh? Anybody but myself? Right, Yeah, I'm a racy,

316
00:26:00.440 --> 00:26:02.599
dark you know, sould narcissist.
I have no you know, I

317
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:07.799
have no soul. It's ye void. Oh wow, that's the next time.

318
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:10.200
I definitely the next time I'm in
the ballot booth, you know,

319
00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:14.519
and about to pull that lever.
What I would think about is which one

320
00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:18.599
of these candidates did not cancel the
Christmas parade? Yeah? What? Who

321
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:21.920
did crush us six year old?
It should have never been like, it

322
00:26:21.960 --> 00:26:25.799
should have never happened. You need
to apologize and you need to be like,

323
00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:33.039
my bad, we're gonna have it, and it's such a bad move,

324
00:26:33.039 --> 00:26:38.319
But it is unless there's no responsibility
that that's carried with you forward for

325
00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:44.400
it. If you think you're untouchable, right, So yeah, it's a

326
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:47.599
good point. If you think you're
untouchable, that's why you do stuff like

327
00:26:47.759 --> 00:26:48.960
this. He came out and you're
like, listen, I worship the dark

328
00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:52.880
Lord and we're not gonna have Christmas. Yes, it's not gonna do it,

329
00:26:52.920 --> 00:26:55.319
but we can if you want,
we can all meet down at front

330
00:26:55.359 --> 00:26:59.559
of city Hall and we can.
You know, we're black robes as you

331
00:26:59.680 --> 00:27:02.519
do in front of my cauldron,
and we can do that because we worship

332
00:27:02.599 --> 00:27:06.599
the dark Lord. Uh huh huh. It's bad news for that goat.

333
00:27:06.759 --> 00:27:08.720
By the way, vote for me. Yeah, bring your own chicken talents.

334
00:27:08.920 --> 00:27:14.039
Oh yeah, absolutely. One thing
I'm not for is government subsidized chicken

335
00:27:14.119 --> 00:27:15.759
talents. No, no, this
is why you're allowed to have chickens.

336
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:18.400
You rale and raise chickens and city
limits. You notice she didn't want to

337
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:22.119
go along with that. So I
can have roosters in my neighborhood. That's

338
00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:26.960
fine on a Saturday morning and the
one time I get to sleep in everyone's

339
00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:33.799
good with that. Just awful,
just so awful. So off. You

340
00:27:33.839 --> 00:27:37.440
know what we need? You know
what we need. We need the Disney

341
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:42.119
Bear. We need the Disney Bear. Drop it off at city Hall.

342
00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:45.960
Let us bring about his Disney magic. Do you guys know about the Disney

343
00:27:47.039 --> 00:27:52.000
Bear? Apparently talking he must be
talking about you're talking about Disney talking about

344
00:27:52.039 --> 00:27:56.559
frontier Land in the jamboree, the
bear jamboree thing. No, I'm not,

345
00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:00.799
but maybe that's he was going.
I don't know, I don't know.

346
00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:03.720
If you don't know about the Disney
Bear, will tell you about the

347
00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:07.160
Disney Bear. Okay, And are
you a journalist who I've made fun of

348
00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:11.920
here on the radio. You could
get paid and I'll have to be the

349
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:15.799

case O Day for the podcast on the

352
00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:34.519
iHeart Radio app. I'm gonna read
I'm gonna read something to you because this

353
00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:40.920
was publicly posted, so this is
this is something I can share with you.

354
00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:45.920
And this was a This was a
person who works with these special special

355
00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:52.200
special needs kids, but I mean
kids who are who need all of the

356
00:28:52.319 --> 00:28:57.640
help that they can get. Who
was communicating to the parade organizers who wrote

357
00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:00.400
to tell the story of one of
the kids, who was a little boy

358
00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:10.440
who lost both of his parents in
twenty nineteen twenty excuse me twenty twenty and

359
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:15.279
as a result changed he had lost
all hope, all joy and stopped speaking.

360
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:25.400
He struggled at school. However,
he was asked to participate in the

361
00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:32.920
twenty twenty one Christmas parade. Would
I guess I'd have to be twenty twenty

362
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:34.640
two, right, Well, anyway, he was asked to participate in the

363
00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:38.039
Christmas parade as a member of our
school. So I'm assuming this is a

364
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:41.279
special school. I wonder if it's
Frankie Lemon or one of those. But

365
00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:47.119
but anyway, and was who got
to ride on the float and this child

366
00:29:47.160 --> 00:29:55.119
who had not spoke in a year
came alive, smiled for the first time

367
00:29:55.200 --> 00:29:59.839
in the year, and spoke for
the first time as he was aboard,

368
00:30:00.319 --> 00:30:04.200
waving to the crowd, finding for
a moment happiness, life and joy.

369
00:30:04.319 --> 00:30:11.119
The magic of riding on that float
that day and the crowd waving gave he

370
00:30:11.319 --> 00:30:15.680
and his grandmother, who now raises
him hope. The only thing that got

371
00:30:15.759 --> 00:30:18.519
him through it was knowing that once
again he'd get to ride on that same

372
00:30:18.599 --> 00:30:29.960
float during the parade. But no
parade. I mean, I believe it.

373
00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:32.759
A lot of these kids, right, like the world is so chaotic,

374
00:30:32.960 --> 00:30:36.839
they look forward to these traditions and
like these rituals because it's some semblance

375
00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:41.079
of normality or yah didn't look forward
to. So I completely believe that.

376
00:30:42.640 --> 00:30:47.480
And but no, and I said, some people that wrote me, they

377
00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:48.960
said that they actually reached out to
the Mayor's I didn't even get an answer.

378
00:30:49.640 --> 00:30:52.880
She gotta do is you gotta show
up at one of her campaign events.

379
00:30:52.559 --> 00:30:55.759
In fact, I have a I
have a list here of the campaign

380
00:30:55.799 --> 00:30:59.119
events. This Saturday, she'll be
at Ben and Jerry's in North Hill slapping

381
00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:03.079
cones out of hands. That's a
good one. Should go up to that

382
00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:06.240
one. If you can't make that. Next week she'll be at Frankie's Fun

383
00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:11.759
Park throwing the master power switch to
the off position. It's like a ribbon

384
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:17.240
cutting but different. So that's a
thing. And then if you can't,

385
00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:21.240
the following week and you'll find her
at the bouncy place. What is that

386
00:31:21.319 --> 00:31:27.200
monkey Joe's stealing all the springs of
the trampolines and deflating the inflatable stuff.

387
00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:30.799
So that should be a longer event
because there's a lot of them there.

388
00:31:32.319 --> 00:31:33.880
And then maybe just look, you
know, maybe just you know, say

389
00:31:34.000 --> 00:31:40.559
something to her at one of those
fine campaign events or an opportunity. Ross

390
00:31:40.559 --> 00:31:42.319
you were saying, there's an opportunity. She may swing by your house right,

391
00:31:44.200 --> 00:31:45.039
that's what I was hearing. Yeah, you know, because you hear

392
00:31:45.079 --> 00:31:48.440
these tragic stories of like people,
you know, they being attacked by dogs

393
00:31:48.480 --> 00:31:52.160
and stuff, what kind of dogs, like pitpoles and stuff like that.

394
00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:56.160
Poles. Here's is fine. Yeah, there's no half measures here. They

395
00:31:56.200 --> 00:31:59.400
need to get rid of all the
dogs. Yeah, that's a good story.

396
00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:01.839
Son happen again. So the mayor
is gonna be showing up at your

397
00:32:01.880 --> 00:32:07.039
door for the big euthanization. Yeah, but but she's not going to do

398
00:32:07.119 --> 00:32:13.119
it herself. Yeah, so she's
gonna have you do it old yellow style

399
00:32:14.160 --> 00:32:16.279
to make sure, you know,
because we can't endanger the children. Right.

400
00:32:16.480 --> 00:32:20.960
So the the end, So the
big dog puppy purge is I think

401
00:32:20.960 --> 00:32:23.039
what they're calling it, where they
show up at your house and at the

402
00:32:23.119 --> 00:32:27.359
barrel of a gun. As government
does usually accomplish anything, they force you

403
00:32:27.440 --> 00:32:30.599
to euthanize your own dog for the
children, for the kids, for the

404
00:32:30.680 --> 00:32:34.519
safety, you know, I understand. So, uh, you know,

405
00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:39.079
don't miss any of those scooter or
what's up? Yeah, so that was

406
00:32:39.119 --> 00:32:45.480
a very touching writer man. Yeah, but uh yeah, I've got it,

407
00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:50.359
got a solution. So we'll get
all the welders and fabricators out there

408
00:32:50.440 --> 00:32:55.839
and we change to flow pulled by
horse and then uh just don't clean up

409
00:32:55.839 --> 00:33:01.920
after the horses and uh leave for
the city. Well yeah, or the

410
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:07.319
sometimes they have the little clowns on
scooters. But you can't have scooters,

411
00:33:07.440 --> 00:33:10.319
I don't. Yeah, or you
can have you can have the kids or

412
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:16.319
someone else volume and haven't dressed.
Uh got and chogas? But what are

413
00:33:16.359 --> 00:33:21.000
the other people that didn't watch?
Was back then? Where just a cloth?

414
00:33:21.920 --> 00:33:24.599
Okay? I think they were pancilst
sir. Yeah, oh yeah.

415
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:30.319
It was just like, wasn't it. Yeah, loincloths? Yes, yes,

416
00:33:30.440 --> 00:33:32.400
yes, yes, there's some loin
cloths or something like that. All

417
00:33:32.480 --> 00:33:35.960
right, all right, well we'll
look into it. Thank you for the

418
00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:40.559
Calder scooter ross. Did you see
this puppy Apparently the puppy perch such a

419
00:33:42.160 --> 00:33:47.440
such a success. The kitten callings
this weekend, same deal. I mean,

420
00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:51.000
you can't trust those things when you
sleep, except they just show up

421
00:33:51.039 --> 00:33:57.319
with burr lap sacks and and it's
off to the nearest creek. So for

422
00:33:57.440 --> 00:34:45.440
the kids. All right, seven
h seven, Good morning. It is

423
00:34:45.559 --> 00:34:51.119
the case O Day Radio program.
Glad to have you a long phone number

424
00:34:51.199 --> 00:34:55.199
eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four. So we've been losing

425
00:34:55.280 --> 00:35:02.480
our minds this morning over this since
and I'm sorry, I don't have kids.

426
00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:07.239
And even when the parade's going on, I'm like, there's a mild

427
00:35:07.400 --> 00:35:10.000
like, ah, I have to
wait through all this to get over to

428
00:35:10.119 --> 00:35:15.199
get my bloody marry and watch football
what's going on. But I don't care

429
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:22.119
who you are, man, I
don't care who you are. And just

430
00:35:22.280 --> 00:35:28.079
because you can remember how ampty were
when you were a kid, even if

431
00:35:28.119 --> 00:35:30.360
you had a really rough go of
it, and maybe Christmas wasn't what it

432
00:35:30.559 --> 00:35:37.280
was or whatever holiday did you you
associate with with with happiness and gathering together

433
00:35:37.360 --> 00:35:43.320
with family and food and and all
of that, that level of excitement.

434
00:35:43.519 --> 00:35:45.880
I'm a little depressed knowing I may
never achieve it again as an adult,

435
00:35:46.559 --> 00:35:50.480
But I wouldn't rob anyone of that
excitement, you know what I'm saying.

436
00:35:51.000 --> 00:35:53.360
And I can get it. I
can understand it. As so as we

437
00:35:53.519 --> 00:35:58.480
sit here and there is this,
you know, the city realizes they screwed

438
00:35:58.559 --> 00:36:02.199
up. The mayor realizes she looks
like a giant grinch ogre, and she

439
00:36:02.320 --> 00:36:08.079
wants to do this like you know, because she's some magnanimous creature, emphasis

440
00:36:08.159 --> 00:36:14.079
on creature and no, no,
the parade organizers need to be like,

441
00:36:14.159 --> 00:36:16.440
no, we're not playing this game. You put out permit it's not like

442
00:36:16.559 --> 00:36:22.320
you stopped all parades. You put
out permits, you let people use floats.

443
00:36:22.360 --> 00:36:23.840
When I got well, I gotta
read the story as some kid who

444
00:36:23.920 --> 00:36:30.800
literally went mute and lost all hope
due to a tragedy that struck and took

445
00:36:30.880 --> 00:36:35.239
both his parents from him, who
only was able to turn it around,

446
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:38.679
even if just for a little bit, by being able to participate in this

447
00:36:38.880 --> 00:36:44.880
event that the majority of people want. And you want to negotiate that away,

448
00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:50.000
screw you. We're not gonna do
it. And the Merchant's Association shouldn't

449
00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:53.320
agree to this madness either. If
it means there is no parade, let

450
00:36:53.400 --> 00:36:58.000
the blame of that fall squarely on
the shoulders of the people who made that

451
00:36:58.159 --> 00:37:04.360
decision. Let them take the rap
for it, Do not give them an

452
00:37:04.400 --> 00:37:08.800
out. It sounds like from what
I what I've seen and the people I've

453
00:37:08.840 --> 00:37:14.920
talked to behind the scenes, that
the group that puts this parade on and

454
00:37:15.000 --> 00:37:19.800
I don't speak for them, but
it's my understanding that the safety measures that

455
00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:23.119
the family of this girl who lost
her life last year, are asking for

456
00:37:23.320 --> 00:37:30.400
this family that was in a way
shouldered with the blame even you know,

457
00:37:30.519 --> 00:37:34.519
within the court of public opinion for
the idea that the parade could be canceled

458
00:37:35.719 --> 00:37:42.840
because nobody wanted to own their own
their own decisions. If if there is

459
00:37:42.920 --> 00:37:46.800
a group, if there is a
list of safety concerns that they have,

460
00:37:47.159 --> 00:37:51.880
and this group that puts the parade
on is willing to abide and address those,

461
00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:58.960
then everyone should be good to go. And it's my understanding that they

462
00:37:59.039 --> 00:38:01.960
are. Again I don't speak for
him, and maybe I'm missing something here,

463
00:38:02.000 --> 00:38:06.480
but at the very least they've agreed
to the majority of them by this

464
00:38:06.719 --> 00:38:15.320
proposal that they've put back. Why
are we having this conversation because a certain

465
00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:22.119
person's ego won't allow them to let
this go for imagine being the people the

466
00:38:22.280 --> 00:38:30.159
person rooting for the wet bandits.
Okay, that's who you are. You're

467
00:38:30.239 --> 00:38:37.000
that You're that person that rooted when
the Grinch took all the presence. Good,

468
00:38:37.239 --> 00:38:45.800
good glad he got him. Awful, just awful. Jamal, Hello,

469
00:38:47.480 --> 00:38:51.159
you know what, Casey, Good
morning, Casey, good morning.

470
00:38:51.480 --> 00:38:53.239
You know what, Casey, I'm
a hole in this man, we don't

471
00:38:53.400 --> 00:38:59.559
know how much kids. We don't
celebrate Christmas. However, there ben not

472
00:38:59.760 --> 00:39:04.480
be a June teenth parade, and
every better not be a gay parade.

473
00:39:04.760 --> 00:39:09.559
If those citizens in Raleigh, if
those Christmas in Raleigh do not go down

474
00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:15.039
there and make their presence and voice
her and get a lawyer and say you're

475
00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:20.719
better than I had at nasty waggony
June tenth parade, and you're better than

476
00:39:20.760 --> 00:39:24.159
I had at perverted gay parade,
because we will suit you for discrimination.

477
00:39:24.480 --> 00:39:30.039
And you know what, if I'm
sick and tired of our representatives, don't

478
00:39:30.159 --> 00:39:35.199
step in and start doing something.
We don't want this antim and we let

479
00:39:35.280 --> 00:39:37.960
even manage your government. This is
when we need to have our people.

480
00:39:38.119 --> 00:39:42.280
I let the state and say,
you know what, we need anti political

481
00:39:42.360 --> 00:39:47.000
discrimination because what this is? This
woman I'm running on diversity inclusion. Well,

482
00:39:47.039 --> 00:39:51.480
how come you've in order to be
diverse and inclusive, you got to

483
00:39:51.639 --> 00:39:57.360
outlaw those things that Americans have celebrated
for years for diversity of inclusion. If

484
00:39:57.440 --> 00:40:00.400
that's diversity inclusion, keep it.
We don't wanted. So do they think

485
00:40:00.480 --> 00:40:04.039
wait, wait, wait, do
you think that they think that it's nothing

486
00:40:04.079 --> 00:40:07.079
but white people go to that parade. Because I've been down to that parade.

487
00:40:07.440 --> 00:40:12.159
It's I'm almost it ain't all white
people. I don't know. I

488
00:40:12.480 --> 00:40:15.480
don't know if they're familiar. If
Jamal, there's many, Jamal, I

489
00:40:15.800 --> 00:40:19.719
know you and your family don't.
But I have to think the majority of

490
00:40:19.880 --> 00:40:25.840
black citizens to celebrate Christmas in the
city of Raleigh. Yes, But you

491
00:40:25.960 --> 00:40:30.320
know what, Casey, the problem
is, and I've said this for years,

492
00:40:30.960 --> 00:40:37.559
my community don't step up and speak
out unless white liberals to give them

493
00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:45.199
the a ok to speak out against
it. Because every Christian a matter of

494
00:40:45.239 --> 00:40:50.320
fact, why won't they hook some
other that big fat Ryan Jerry Carrol when

495
00:40:50.440 --> 00:40:53.199
it's so called preacher William Bob.
He can pull the fluke, he can

496
00:40:53.280 --> 00:40:58.800
pull eight of them. Do you
want a big old Oregon trail wagon yoke

497
00:40:58.920 --> 00:41:00.679
on him? I mean, what
do you add you can't even here?

498
00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:05.280
Well, you know, pull him
one of them more harnesses. They used

499
00:41:05.320 --> 00:41:09.159
to pull the music of the God, old good music and pull. They

500
00:41:09.159 --> 00:41:13.039
don't think if you hang a carrot
out on a stick in front of him,

501
00:41:13.039 --> 00:41:15.039
he's gonna pull crap. You know
what I'm saying. Oh No,

502
00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:20.519
you need a whole buffet line you
need because he's a buffet slayer, golden

503
00:41:20.599 --> 00:41:23.519
korad he walking golden Kay start crying, You'll put your whole buffet line in

504
00:41:23.599 --> 00:41:27.360
front of him and be like there
you go. He'll pull there, He'll

505
00:41:27.400 --> 00:41:30.440
pull every fruit. But Casey,
I'm just saying this. The Christmas is

506
00:41:30.679 --> 00:41:35.679
the Christmas and Wiley. You know
all these churches that have a pride Polly

507
00:41:35.960 --> 00:41:38.599
they said, the pride you know
flag, We're inclusive. Where are they

508
00:41:39.119 --> 00:41:45.159
you all talk about they talk about
they're so inclusive, but everything that quote

509
00:41:45.239 --> 00:41:51.960
unquote patriarchal, traditional Christian stuff they
attacked. This woman needs to be sued

510
00:41:52.480 --> 00:41:58.239
and I mean sued. And and
if they try to have a gay trife

511
00:41:58.360 --> 00:42:04.559
parade or June tweenth parade, that
be not be one float, that ben

512
00:42:04.679 --> 00:42:08.679
not be one vehicle. And if
they haven't turn aloud and see her again,

513
00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:13.920
because it has to stop the people
in Riley. You know what,

514
00:42:14.320 --> 00:42:19.320
everybody didn't vote for this nutcase's diversity
queen. Nobody, everybody didn't vote for

515
00:42:19.400 --> 00:42:22.119
her. But you know what,
just because you didn't vote for her don't

516
00:42:22.199 --> 00:42:27.239
mean you have to be under the
rule of her diversity, which is at

517
00:42:27.360 --> 00:42:34.400
diversity inclusive, which discriminatory towards Christians
and conservatives rules you can push back against

518
00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:37.840
her, and I'm pretty sure it's
so it's a law Jan Roley that wants

519
00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:43.639
this type of it exposure so he
can see her so so conservative to start

520
00:42:43.719 --> 00:42:49.320
coming up even if he's not or
she couldn't hear you not, they at

521
00:42:49.400 --> 00:42:52.280
least get some you know, conservatives
and Christians that comes to head with ties

522
00:42:52.360 --> 00:42:57.960
of it. The people have to
stand up. Why why tell me right

523
00:42:58.079 --> 00:43:00.639
now? Why is it so easy
to call in right out in the station?

524
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:02.400
Where? What are the people right
now? In a while? It's

525
00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:07.000
who are sick? Man? What? Letslin just calling me in right now

526
00:43:07.119 --> 00:43:13.639
saying, hey, Ksey, this
is a district. I don't know,

527
00:43:13.880 --> 00:43:17.280
I don't know what power they would
necessarily have. I guess is perhaps the

528
00:43:17.360 --> 00:43:21.320
reason. And they probably don't want
to call in because I'm gonna ask them

529
00:43:21.360 --> 00:43:23.400
why they gave all of the things
that they wanted away and they're still going

530
00:43:23.480 --> 00:43:29.480
to expand Medicaid. That's that's what
they need to be answering for today.

531
00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:31.079
But that's another story entirely. All
right, Jamal, thanks for the call

532
00:43:31.159 --> 00:43:37.239
this morning. Okay, all right, Yeah, all right, yeah,

533
00:43:37.760 --> 00:43:38.960
yeah, they don't. They don't
want me to ask that. We will

534
00:43:39.039 --> 00:43:43.760
have a lieutenant governor at eight oh
five though, right, I know it's

535
00:43:43.800 --> 00:43:49.880
not under his purview, but I'll
be curious his thoughts on this. Oh

536
00:43:49.960 --> 00:43:53.400
look at that. She just added
two more h two more campaign events coming

537
00:43:53.519 --> 00:43:59.320
up. One the removal of all
the t ball ts. Yeah, I

538
00:43:59.400 --> 00:44:02.320
get rid of them. You know, kids swinging bats very dangerous. And

539
00:44:02.920 --> 00:44:10.000
uh, the outlawn of pools.
No more pools for you know, sometimes

540
00:44:10.119 --> 00:44:14.000
kids drowned ross. Have you heard
this? So you've heard these right,

541
00:44:14.079 --> 00:44:15.480
It is a tragedy. So we
need to protect them at all costs.

542
00:44:15.599 --> 00:44:19.960
Yeah, so we'll uh and and
then we'll put sand in there like they

543
00:44:20.039 --> 00:44:23.440
did in California during COVID with the
skate parks, so there's no skaters that

544
00:44:23.639 --> 00:44:30.840
use the drained pools for for the
kids. So I don't think sand is

545
00:44:30.920 --> 00:44:35.280
a good enough deterrent because kids could
be like I could build a sandcastle.

546
00:44:36.639 --> 00:44:40.360
Can we fill the pools like broccoli
or Brussels sprouts or something I was gonna

547
00:44:40.400 --> 00:44:45.119
go with fire. Okay, that
seems like that could possibly be No,

548
00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:51.079
wait, kids might make smores.
Well, I mean that. But that's

549
00:44:51.159 --> 00:44:54.239
diabetes. I'm sorry. I mean, these are all horrible things that could,

550
00:44:54.360 --> 00:44:59.000
that could. I'm sorry, that's
what diabetes. Thank you diabetes.

551
00:44:59.239 --> 00:45:07.000
Yeah, uh, dude, I
thought we had it in the system.

552
00:45:07.440 --> 00:45:12.119
I think I spelled it as the
way he says. Oh, I'll never

553
00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:19.119
be able to find the E t
us diabetes. Well, now we're gonna

554
00:45:19.119 --> 00:45:24.360
find it. Yeah, I want
it. Hold on, Oh great,

555
00:45:24.400 --> 00:45:29.599
it's not even diabetes. First diet. Oh you found it? Okay,

556
00:45:29.679 --> 00:45:35.159
good, how's it spelled. It's
actually spelled diabetes. Oh why didn't it

557
00:45:35.239 --> 00:45:37.480
come up. I'm out on computers, all whacked out. Your blood sugar

558
00:45:37.559 --> 00:45:45.599
is probably low, man, I
need a s'more. Well, I'll go

559
00:45:45.679 --> 00:45:47.519
to the ice cream knocking event and
then i'll catch one just for it hits

560
00:45:47.559 --> 00:45:52.079
the ground. We'll use that.
But a kid won't beating it, so

561
00:45:52.119 --> 00:45:54.079
it'll be fine. No, the
kids, they're too busy running from the

562
00:45:54.239 --> 00:46:01.599
Disney Bears. Yes. Apparently,
nearly half of Disney World was forced to

563
00:46:01.679 --> 00:46:10.280
close down after park goers reported a
black bear near the Big Thunder railroad.

564
00:46:13.280 --> 00:46:15.840
Well, it seems logical for a
bear to be in I'm assuming the railroads

565
00:46:15.880 --> 00:46:20.880
kind of themed over like mountain railroads. You would expect to see a bear

566
00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:23.119
there. This was in frontier Land. Of course, there's gonna be bears

567
00:46:23.159 --> 00:46:27.079
in frontier Land. Yeah, big
Thunder railroad. It's like a whole like

568
00:46:27.199 --> 00:46:31.039
mining theme. Oh yeah, that's
Bear Central man. So wait, so

569
00:46:31.119 --> 00:46:35.960
they go all authentic and then the
cowards shut the park down. They didn't

570
00:46:35.960 --> 00:46:39.239
even shut the park down when the
gator was eating kids. It's probably super

571
00:46:39.320 --> 00:46:43.000
confusing at first when you see the
bear because you're like, oh my god,

572
00:46:43.039 --> 00:46:46.880
it's like a Disney animatronic didn't realize
it's like not singing about like necessities

573
00:46:46.920 --> 00:46:51.880
and stuff, and wait, assies
just the bear ones okay, all right,

574
00:46:52.639 --> 00:46:54.280
not a greedy magic bear. So
it's not a matt So if it

575
00:46:54.400 --> 00:47:00.320
was a magic bear, everything be
fine. But since it's not a magic

576
00:47:00.400 --> 00:47:04.840
bear, right, Like that bear
is not wearing a half shirt. What

577
00:47:04.960 --> 00:47:07.880
a dangerous bear? What if it
figured out that if it did, it

578
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:14.559
could catch more kids? Right?
Abolical evil bear? But right they So

579
00:47:14.639 --> 00:47:17.119
you got a gatorade a kid and
they just like, please don't picnic so

580
00:47:17.280 --> 00:47:23.480
close to the water's edge. They
didn't shut did they shut the park down?

581
00:47:23.559 --> 00:47:25.920
I don't think they shut the park
down when the gatorade the kid,

582
00:47:27.000 --> 00:47:30.000
right, because weren't they all people
were upset because they didn't or excuse me,

583
00:47:30.639 --> 00:47:35.480
I'm sorry, did I imply that
a gatorade a kid? What actually

584
00:47:35.519 --> 00:47:39.440
happened? It's a horrible smelting exit, that's right, Yes, silly me,

585
00:47:39.719 --> 00:47:44.679
silly me, spreading false tails there, right. They tried to play

586
00:47:44.719 --> 00:47:50.960
at all, They tried to hush
that. Remember, isn't it wait,

587
00:47:51.039 --> 00:47:54.400
wait, isn't part of Disney just
all animals anyway, that's like a separate

588
00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:59.400
park and it's like super far away
from the Magic Kingdom. And but yes,

589
00:47:59.599 --> 00:48:01.320
you do have Animal Kingdom, which
is animals. Wait is that its

590
00:48:01.360 --> 00:48:05.440
own ticket? Yeah, it's a
separate park. No, come on,

591
00:48:06.039 --> 00:48:09.039
it's an extra hundred bucks dude per
person for to go where the animals are.

592
00:48:09.239 --> 00:48:12.960
Yeah, so that's what Disney,
that's what this is about. It's

593
00:48:13.000 --> 00:48:17.119
a profit motive. These people didn't
have an animal park ticket, but we're

594
00:48:17.159 --> 00:48:22.800
getting to see animals, and Disney
could not abide by that because they couldn't

595
00:48:22.840 --> 00:48:25.480
then grease you for another hundred dollars
to go to the other place. Yeah,

596
00:48:25.480 --> 00:48:30.840
you've got a ticket for Epcot,
a ticket for Animal Kingdom. Magic

597
00:48:30.960 --> 00:48:34.199
Kingdom and Hollywood Studios or whatever they
call it now, or you could buy

598
00:48:34.239 --> 00:48:37.880
the Macdaddy package that's like super expensive
to go to all four parks throughout the

599
00:48:37.920 --> 00:48:40.519
day. There's four different tickets.
Yeah, it's Disney World. That's why

600
00:48:40.559 --> 00:48:45.519
they call it Disney World. It's
like different parks right out. Like you

601
00:48:45.559 --> 00:48:49.880
can't walk to them. You have
to like get back in the parking lot

602
00:48:50.039 --> 00:48:52.599
then you have to you know that. But how long does that take?

603
00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:57.119
Drive? Or you can take the
tram or whatever. It takes a long

604
00:48:57.159 --> 00:48:59.840
time. Man, It's it's a
long day. Is that there is that

605
00:49:00.039 --> 00:49:02.440
the people mover does? It goes
to the different people mover is only around

606
00:49:02.480 --> 00:49:07.159
Magic Kingdom. Man, you need
to educate yourself. I can't. There's

607
00:49:07.280 --> 00:49:15.840
bears and gaters, man. I'd
tell you the first time we took Lincoln

608
00:49:15.840 --> 00:49:19.280
down there to Florida, I'd never
been there. Mark he'd been there.

609
00:49:19.440 --> 00:49:22.079
Yea. I was blown away because
I thought I knew what I was going

610
00:49:22.159 --> 00:49:24.639
to. I had no idea.
I'm like, this is insane. You

611
00:49:24.719 --> 00:49:32.360
know who probably put the bear in
there? Come on, I mean,

612
00:49:34.440 --> 00:49:37.880
give us stick a bear into the
middle of all those children. Would probably

613
00:49:37.960 --> 00:49:42.840
guess Grinch, baldwinness, whatever.
Yea. If I'd guess she's like,

614
00:49:42.960 --> 00:49:45.559
Ah, these kids look like they're
having fun. What can I do to

615
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:49.559
get the park shut down? Back
in the day, on the evil tier

616
00:49:49.639 --> 00:49:52.719
list, I would have probably put
like Tom Tillis there first. Yeah,

617
00:49:53.960 --> 00:49:58.079
dynamic has changed, the power ranking
has changed. Really, see what you

618
00:49:58.119 --> 00:50:04.760
want about Tillis. He didn't cancel
the Christmas parade because he's not a moron?

619
00:50:06.079 --> 00:50:08.320
Debatable? Yeah, well but he
no. Could you realize he wouldn't

620
00:50:08.360 --> 00:50:12.159
do it? But not because it's
the wrong thing to do, right,

621
00:50:12.679 --> 00:50:15.519
but because he realizes there might be
some impact in his electability. Yeah.

622
00:50:15.559 --> 00:50:19.800
He read that a chapter in Macavelli's
The Prince, which is near the back.

623
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:25.599
It's called it don't cancel the Christmas
Parade? You Yeah, even if

624
00:50:25.639 --> 00:50:31.880
it dude, if that former Italian
thief Paula he was a politician, right,

625
00:50:34.480 --> 00:50:37.400
if he knew not to cancel the
Christmas parade? What are you all

626
00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:44.719
doing? Oh man? All right? Diabodical, magical bears and bad decisions.

627
00:50:44.800 --> 00:50:47.400
More of that coming up. Hang
on, This is one O six

628
00:50:47.480 --> 00:51:07.880
one FM Talk in the Triangle,
and here's Talk WPTI in the Triad all

629
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:10.360
right, welcome back, seven thirty
six. You're on the CaCO Day radio

630
00:51:10.519 --> 00:51:21.239
program. You ready to take a
trip, a trip down south. Let's

631
00:51:21.320 --> 00:51:29.800
do this. Florida men, Florida
men. Something in the water, the

632
00:51:29.960 --> 00:51:32.400
air or scent that makes you do
all that crazy crap. It's like the

633
00:51:32.480 --> 00:51:37.000
state is one being done ass trap. Nowhere else has the Florida man.

634
00:51:38.559 --> 00:51:44.760
It is all almost like as the
weird Factor climbs that you'll find out it

635
00:51:45.440 --> 00:51:51.760
happened in Florida every time. Florida
men, Florida man. If anyone can

636
00:51:51.880 --> 00:51:53.519
cheer me, if you know you
can, does mind like get crazy?

637
00:51:53.800 --> 00:51:58.320
But of course, but it's not
as bad crap crazy as yours. Nowhere

638
00:51:59.280 --> 00:52:02.480
else are you find him. They're
so used to it they don't mind him.

639
00:52:02.840 --> 00:52:09.159
Poray for Florida women this time around
us. So here we go to.

640
00:52:09.320 --> 00:52:15.880
Florida women were arrested for drunkenly tossing
a baby back and forth over a

641
00:52:15.000 --> 00:52:24.159
volleyball net quote like a toy,
in one incident, actually flipping the baby.

642
00:52:28.440 --> 00:52:35.320
Other patrons attempted to get them to
stop for obvious reasons, at which

643
00:52:35.400 --> 00:52:39.920
point they told the other patrons that
they were going to quote fight them apparently

644
00:52:39.960 --> 00:52:46.639
there may have been spent. Now
is that less homoerotic than top gun beach

645
00:52:46.800 --> 00:53:00.199
volleyball? Right, Steve? I
mean if you had to, if you

646
00:53:00.360 --> 00:53:04.800
had because at least with a baby, it means somebody reproduced. The way

647
00:53:04.880 --> 00:53:08.599
Iceman is spinning that baby. It's
hard to do with the baby, is

648
00:53:08.639 --> 00:53:12.400
it? If you tried, I
haven't, No, I can't pull it

649
00:53:12.480 --> 00:53:17.400
off. Look at those poses from
slider there. I think. I think

650
00:53:17.440 --> 00:53:22.320
the real downfall is obviously these are
horrible people, but two one of the

651
00:53:22.400 --> 00:53:29.320
women is on crutches. You know
how hard it is to play beach baby

652
00:53:29.519 --> 00:53:34.679
volleyball crutches keeping your balance like that. Yeah, so they're going to prison,

653
00:53:34.800 --> 00:53:37.880
right, yeah? I hope.
So sounds like the baby was injured,

654
00:53:37.920 --> 00:53:40.840
not because they spiked it or anything, but because you know, there's

655
00:53:40.840 --> 00:53:44.679
a lot of force obviously when you're
tossing a baby, which they say,

656
00:53:45.079 --> 00:53:51.400
which was described as traveling four feet
in the air. I know it doesn't

657
00:53:51.400 --> 00:53:52.719
sound like a lot, but think
about it. If you're six foot tall

658
00:53:54.199 --> 00:53:59.239
two basically two thirds of you,
that's a big distance. What is it?

659
00:53:59.360 --> 00:54:04.400
How tall is a baby? A
foot and a half? I say,

660
00:54:04.480 --> 00:54:07.039
like it? It depends on obviously
how old the baby is like a

661
00:54:07.079 --> 00:54:15.400
football to a volleyball to a watermelon. Yeah, so I hope they're going

662
00:54:15.480 --> 00:54:21.840
to jail. A waitress who was
recording the incident, approached Lafoy, Brianna

663
00:54:21.960 --> 00:54:30.159
Lafoy, nineteen, who then tried
to hit her, and then Lafoy allegedly

664
00:54:30.320 --> 00:54:35.480
flipped the baby upside down grabbed him
by his ankles. What is he gonna

665
00:54:35.559 --> 00:54:39.639
use She's gonna use the baby as
a weapon. I have to assume these

666
00:54:39.679 --> 00:54:43.679
women didn't want the baby and this
was an effort to get the baby taken

667
00:54:43.719 --> 00:54:50.920
away from them, which thankfully was
accomplished. When please watch the video recorded

668
00:54:50.960 --> 00:54:53.519
by the witness, they saw Nouel
the other woman, Sierra Nouelle twenty,

669
00:54:54.159 --> 00:55:00.639
sitting on the ground while Lafoy was
standing up, swinging the baby at the

670
00:55:00.719 --> 00:55:13.239
waitress like a nun chuck and at
one point struck the woman with the baby.

671
00:55:21.159 --> 00:55:24.199
Oh my god, Oh my god. You want to know the nate,

672
00:55:24.239 --> 00:55:30.000
You want to know the name of
the business where this happened, because

673
00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:37.519
it's a bar slash recreationable cannabis,
recreational cannabis spot known as Crazy John's Recreational

674
00:55:37.679 --> 00:55:45.280
Cannabis and bar. Oh. Well, and I appreciate businesses that are like

675
00:55:45.480 --> 00:55:47.599
name like that, because at least
you know what you're getting yourself in.

676
00:55:47.639 --> 00:55:51.480
You know what it is. You
brought a baby to that though, right,

677
00:55:52.719 --> 00:55:54.280
doesn't that sound like a place where
you wouldn't bring a baby? Well,

678
00:55:54.360 --> 00:56:01.440
unless you know you're looking forward to
prison, I guess. The story

679
00:56:01.559 --> 00:56:07.679
security also captured much of the incident. Owner Sean Knapp, who wasn't president

680
00:56:07.760 --> 00:56:13.400
at the time, said he found
the footage quote incredibly disturbing. I think

681
00:56:13.480 --> 00:56:19.039
so. And while the baby did
sustain some injuries include I think the baby

682
00:56:19.079 --> 00:56:25.840
may have broken his arm. There's
not enough prison for these two, He

683
00:56:25.960 --> 00:56:30.719
said. He's glad this situation didn't
turn out worse, as even after the

684
00:56:30.760 --> 00:56:37.000
waitress was initially assaulted with the baby, other bystanders had stepped in. Good

685
00:56:38.280 --> 00:56:43.079
Police also added to both Nuel and
Lafoux, who are under twenty one,

686
00:56:43.280 --> 00:56:49.840
were drunk at the time. The
baby transferred to a local hospital for medical

687
00:56:49.960 --> 00:56:58.519
treatment. The affid excuse me,
the affid David doesn't reveal who the baby

688
00:56:58.639 --> 00:57:04.840
belonged to. Oh my god.
One of the women, the twenty year

689
00:57:04.840 --> 00:57:09.360
old mother whose mother was with them. So the mother of the twenty year

690
00:57:09.360 --> 00:57:16.920
old is with these two who are
playing baby beach volleyball and weaponize the baby

691
00:57:17.480 --> 00:57:27.239
and didn't step in, and I
swear it says the Department of Children and

692
00:57:27.280 --> 00:57:30.679
Family Services, who currently has taken
custody of the baby, is evaluating the

693
00:57:30.800 --> 00:57:36.599
background of Nowell's mother, who again
was there to see if she can take

694
00:57:36.679 --> 00:57:40.599
custody of the child. So I'm
assuming it is the twenty year old's baby.

695
00:57:44.119 --> 00:57:45.679
Why do I have a feeling the
reason the twenty year old thinks this

696
00:57:45.840 --> 00:57:54.360
is okay is because mom thought it
was okay twenty years ago. It's wrong

697
00:57:54.440 --> 00:58:00.519
with people. Man Elon Musk said
Monday during an interview he may move to

698
00:58:00.599 --> 00:58:06.679
require all users to pay a monthly
fee to use Twitter excuse me, x

699
00:58:06.800 --> 00:58:14.559
whatever during a live stream event with
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin net and Yahoo must

700
00:58:14.639 --> 00:58:19.079
describe it as a way to not
only boost revenue, but more specifically target

701
00:58:19.320 --> 00:58:23.800
armies of bots. I mean,
he is right in that if every account

702
00:58:23.880 --> 00:58:29.639
did have a fee associated with it, running these big bot farms all of

703
00:58:29.679 --> 00:58:38.360
a sudden would not be advantageous.
However, large scale social media company anytime

704
00:58:38.440 --> 00:58:42.599
they You remember that scam that used
to go around that Facebook's going to start

705
00:58:42.639 --> 00:58:45.360
charging if you don't do stuff,
and people would send that around and pass

706
00:58:45.400 --> 00:58:47.400
it and like twenty people send it
to us on the show, and it's

707
00:58:47.440 --> 00:58:53.000
like it's not true. Because people
just couldn't fathom the idea that there would

708
00:58:53.039 --> 00:58:58.719
be they would require payment for one
of the big, high profile social media

709
00:58:58.840 --> 00:59:02.679
outlets. They couldn't fathom it,
even in Congress. Remember the congressional testimony

710
00:59:02.719 --> 00:59:07.880
of Mark Zuckerberg where the one idiot
senators so they could push they could posh

711
00:59:08.000 --> 00:59:12.639
for free, how do you make
money? And Zuckerberg had to go,

712
00:59:12.880 --> 00:59:20.400
we sell ads. But the idea
that you'd have one of the big ones

713
00:59:20.840 --> 00:59:24.320
require a subscription fee. Now granted, there is obviously a subscription option for

714
00:59:24.440 --> 00:59:31.559
Twitter, which in and of itself
became some sort of weird argument with memes.

715
00:59:31.920 --> 00:59:37.239
This idiot paid for Twitter blue We
played for a check mark. But

716
00:59:37.360 --> 00:59:39.360
a lot of that was bore out
of people who thought they were entitled to

717
00:59:39.480 --> 00:59:46.719
check marks. They couldn't fathom others
having it. But do you think that

718
00:59:46.840 --> 00:59:51.400
twitters would be do you think Twitter
would be what it is? I mean,

719
00:59:51.599 --> 00:59:54.760
I understand the bots are a thing, but the tool that it is

720
00:59:55.960 --> 01:00:00.639
if everyone had to pay for their
account, I mean, obviously there'd be

721
01:00:00.639 --> 01:00:02.599
a bunch of people who would cancel
their accounts. I mean, that's clear,

722
01:00:02.760 --> 01:00:05.400
right. I mean, I think
it might be good because then you

723
01:00:05.440 --> 01:00:07.159
don't have to worry about the pores
being on there and you'd be in trolled

724
01:00:07.199 --> 01:00:13.239
and having to associate with the pores. Check well. I mean, obviously

725
01:00:13.320 --> 01:00:15.679
I'm not going to have like the
low tier version because they say there's gonna

726
01:00:15.679 --> 01:00:19.239
be like a premium version, which
I have, and then like a like

727
01:00:19.360 --> 01:00:22.239
a like a low tier like a
poverty like so it's like you're not as

728
01:00:22.440 --> 01:00:25.880
poverty as not having, but you're
still kind of poor. So I mean,

729
01:00:25.960 --> 01:00:29.639
if you're complaining about and imagine how
much would it be, like like

730
01:00:29.719 --> 01:00:34.360
a buck a month. I don't
know. I admittedly even you know,

731
01:00:34.480 --> 01:00:37.760
even at a buck, I think
that that solves your troll problem or your

732
01:00:37.039 --> 01:00:42.159
bought problem. For the most part, I still think there'd be people that

733
01:00:42.280 --> 01:00:46.320
would because there's different ways that people
use fake accounts to manipulate it, like

734
01:00:46.920 --> 01:00:52.320
the fake account armies that they use
to shame businesses and pretend there's more of

735
01:00:52.400 --> 01:00:55.880
them for cancel culture purposes. I
still think that there'd be there's enough political

736
01:00:55.960 --> 01:01:00.920
money thrown in that direction that they
you know, they he might continue to

737
01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:06.400
engage, but you know those buy
ten thousand followers. Can you imagine what

738
01:01:06.719 --> 01:01:09.239
this would do to some accounts by
the way, where you're like, how

739
01:01:09.320 --> 01:01:15.199
does that person have three interactions on
their tweet? But fifty thousand followers?

740
01:01:15.360 --> 01:01:22.039
Right, you've seen those accounts,
and I think those accounts all of a

741
01:01:22.119 --> 01:01:27.000
sudden would have a lot less followers. But that manipulation happens everywhere. I

742
01:01:27.039 --> 01:01:30.480
think that happens on Twitch, right, people have faith like they'll have like

743
01:01:30.599 --> 01:01:35.239
two thousand followers, Yet if they
do a live stream, that's different.

744
01:01:35.440 --> 01:01:38.000
So what people do on twitches they
pay for the viewers. That's what I

745
01:01:38.079 --> 01:01:40.880
mean. You you'll see somebody and
it's like you know, they have like

746
01:01:40.960 --> 01:01:45.719
a hundred somebody people watching the stream, and then you go there, but

747
01:01:45.760 --> 01:01:49.280
then know what's chatting? And no
one is talking because those people and you

748
01:01:49.360 --> 01:01:52.840
don't you don't pay, Like when
you pay for that, it's like one

749
01:01:52.920 --> 01:01:57.760
and done. I think, so
like you that's what I've like, you

750
01:01:57.920 --> 01:02:00.280
pay for it. Yeah, and
then it's like you'll have a hundred people

751
01:02:00.320 --> 01:02:06.519
which have never had in your in
your chat room watching no one's talking because

752
01:02:06.559 --> 01:02:07.559
they're all paid for it. In
the next stream, it goes back to

753
01:02:07.639 --> 01:02:14.639
your base. Well, maybe they're
not talking because some have moderators. There

754
01:02:14.639 --> 01:02:19.039
are such monsters that if you say
anything, they'll just time you out.

755
01:02:19.079 --> 01:02:20.760
Well, I think you just have
to, you know, be able to

756
01:02:20.800 --> 01:02:22.559
read the room. And I think
it comes down to you if you're if

757
01:02:22.559 --> 01:02:27.239
you're a person like that, then
it's going to be just blocked. Yeah,

758
01:02:27.360 --> 01:02:30.239
it probably comes down to your personality. You probably should do some self

759
01:02:30.280 --> 01:02:34.760
reflection there, see how you're treating
people. I would imagine you think that's

760
01:02:34.840 --> 01:02:37.239
hypothetical, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what we're

761
01:02:37.239 --> 01:02:40.159
going for. Hypothetical, right there. Huh, all right, well,

762
01:02:40.719 --> 01:02:46.480
what do you know? Seven forty
seven ray Yo Fantasy football stage? It

763
01:02:46.599 --> 01:02:52.719
joining us who's well, who's the
tomorrow game? I don't have it in

764
01:02:52.800 --> 01:02:59.400
front of me. I forgot who's
the tomorrow Guiana, We're either really awful

765
01:02:59.519 --> 01:03:01.119
or really good? Yeah, we
don't. We don't know yet. Well,

766
01:03:01.719 --> 01:03:06.400
Barkeley won't play. I think that's
that's right. Week the week,

767
01:03:07.000 --> 01:03:08.639
No, I didn't have My wife
did, She was like, who do

768
01:03:08.760 --> 01:03:13.920
I play this week? Barkeley's got
a huge We don't play Keeler. Jared

769
01:03:13.960 --> 01:03:16.920
Allen Jared Allen, I told her
number sixty nine for the Vikings play.

770
01:03:19.840 --> 01:03:25.519
And we'll see if there's any impacts, not tomorrow, but for the weekend

771
01:03:25.639 --> 01:03:30.119
for any college football, high school
football on Friday night Saturday. With this

772
01:03:30.280 --> 01:03:35.559
coastal thing going and then further up
the coast, I think a lot of

773
01:03:35.559 --> 01:03:38.039
the moisture is gonna be read along
immediate coast for the weekend. Now,

774
01:03:38.119 --> 01:03:44.000
this is probably not going to be
tropical. They're thinking non tropical right now.

775
01:03:44.039 --> 01:03:46.280
This area of low pressure's forecast to
develop, but it could even spread

776
01:03:46.360 --> 01:03:51.159
some rainfall into the triangle and the
try it. The rain chances lesson as

777
01:03:51.159 --> 01:03:53.360
you go toward the west, but
beautiful until then. Uh yeah, I

778
01:03:53.400 --> 01:03:57.920
know there's some cloud and a little
fog around this morning and some partial sun

779
01:03:58.039 --> 01:04:01.480
today, but still eighty or just
a tonight tomorrow, cloudy, still at

780
01:04:01.519 --> 01:04:04.679
our above eighteen. That rain chance
comes in Friday afternoon from the east,

781
01:04:05.360 --> 01:04:10.039
going to get a little breezy too, and as I said, triangling out

782
01:04:10.119 --> 01:04:14.320
near the coast, better chances of
rain into Friday night, maybe Saturday into

783
01:04:14.400 --> 01:04:18.360
Saturday morning. We'll have to see
certainly the coast rain and more wind,

784
01:04:18.400 --> 01:04:21.800
more chewing up of the coastline,
and coastal flooding. Whether it gets a

785
01:04:21.880 --> 01:04:26.280
name or not, we're going to
have a storm on the coast. So

786
01:04:27.000 --> 01:04:29.920
I'm trying to get one of those
last kind of beach weekends in where maybe

787
01:04:29.920 --> 01:04:30.960
you just want to go to the
beach, maybe not get in the water.

788
01:04:31.679 --> 01:04:33.719
I'm not going to be pretty.
I think Sunday is a chance all

789
01:04:33.760 --> 01:04:36.719
the rain will be done. So
it's a little iffy right now. I

790
01:04:36.880 --> 01:04:43.159
think we'll have a better kind of
forecast for Friday, Friday afternoon and Saturday

791
01:04:43.719 --> 01:04:45.639
as we talk tomorrow. But right
now, a couple of pretty decent days

792
01:04:45.719 --> 01:04:48.800
coming up here over the next couple
of days. And you know, as

793
01:04:48.880 --> 01:04:54.840
I said, it's gonna be questionable
to where the rain and where the rain

794
01:04:55.000 --> 01:04:57.480
is. It is not as we
go through the latter part of the week,

795
01:04:57.519 --> 01:04:59.199
we can't you know why we can't
get in the water? Right?

796
01:05:00.679 --> 01:05:04.239
No, all these these jerks decided
to save that stupid mako shark. Did

797
01:05:04.280 --> 01:05:09.079
you see that? Oh yeah,
don't you got a giant mako shark that

798
01:05:09.159 --> 01:05:13.719
has willingly beached itself on that Florida
beach. Right, so it can't eat

799
01:05:13.760 --> 01:05:16.920
anybody unless you get right up on
it. And these a holes go over

800
01:05:17.000 --> 01:05:19.440
and like, let's get it back
in the ocean so it can eat the

801
01:05:19.559 --> 01:05:24.960
kids, and and they do.
And so now we got a big old

802
01:05:25.000 --> 01:05:30.280
Mako's probably pretty hungry from struggling while
being beached. Sure, just swimming around

803
01:05:30.320 --> 01:05:33.079
looking for Johnny. Yeah, and
he's a pretty good size too. So

804
01:05:33.639 --> 01:05:36.800
anyway, all right, sorry,
don't go in the water. Thanks,

805
01:05:36.840 --> 01:05:41.199
man, appreciate it. Yeah,
did you see that? Did you see

806
01:05:41.199 --> 01:05:46.639
these idiots? Homer, their wives
sitting around watching this too dangerous? Don't

807
01:05:46.639 --> 01:05:51.800
be doing that. She's already she's
like, what was our life insurance policy?

808
01:05:53.159 --> 01:05:59.320
Let him? No, Oh,
it's not dead. It's thrashing around

809
01:05:59.360 --> 01:06:01.960
trying to bite people. Oh,
they got it. Now it's gonna eat

810
01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:15.639
you stupids. All right, we'll
be back Smart talk all DAYPTI in the

811
01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:19.960
Triad and one six one FM Talk
in the Triangle. No, I'm not

812
01:06:20.079 --> 01:06:24.199
sure. I'm not sure how that
would work. I'm assuming that what are

813
01:06:24.239 --> 01:06:27.599
they called big wheels, right,
or the things that the motorized kids like

814
01:06:27.760 --> 01:06:33.360
Jeep runs on the battery. It's
a big wheel right, maybe it's something

815
01:06:33.400 --> 01:06:38.039
else. I think he had big
wheels and power wheels, power wheels,

816
01:06:38.119 --> 01:06:41.159
well, whatever it is. Every
year for the Christmas parade, I get

817
01:06:41.199 --> 01:06:45.880
one of those and then I juggle
Christmas babies, right, they're in little

818
01:06:45.960 --> 01:06:51.440
like Santa's Elf outfits, and then
just drive that depth and we're gonna have

819
01:06:51.519 --> 01:06:57.159
to take that yeah, and put
some jingle bells behind it. Yeah.

820
01:06:57.199 --> 01:06:59.639
Oh that would be an easy mix, man, it would be yeah.

821
01:07:00.519 --> 01:07:01.360
Back, do we have jingle I
mix it right here? Do we have

822
01:07:01.400 --> 01:07:04.440
any jingle bells? See if we
have jingle bells, and then put it

823
01:07:04.519 --> 01:07:10.239
on one of the pot three spots, I'll mix on the floor. I'm

824
01:07:10.480 --> 01:07:12.239
you know, at the end of
the day, I just say, don't

825
01:07:12.239 --> 01:07:15.880
call me a DJ because we're talk
hosts, but we're also DJ's or any

826
01:07:15.960 --> 01:07:23.639
Christmas music. Really, that's just
that's just a bed. Maybe some Trans

827
01:07:23.719 --> 01:07:26.679
Siberian. Do we have any Trans
Siberian in the music category? We got

828
01:07:26.800 --> 01:07:33.000
to the problem is you search in
the library jingle bells, jingle and you

829
01:07:33.079 --> 01:07:36.119
get like five thousand different cups.
No, that's right because all the jingles

830
01:07:36.199 --> 01:07:40.440
and stuff. All right, hold
on, I'll just got to search by

831
01:07:40.880 --> 01:07:45.119
artiste artiste. Oh, now it's
gonna take an hour to load because we

832
01:07:45.159 --> 01:07:49.440
got way too much music in there. Can we search it on sound Plus?

833
01:07:49.559 --> 01:07:55.079
Do we know that's an inside joke. Don't worry about that. Lieutenant

834
01:07:55.159 --> 01:07:58.719
Governor Mark Robinson gonna be joining us
here at eight oh five. We got

835
01:07:58.800 --> 01:08:01.880
Christmas and Sandy and we're gonn get
into the budget because apparently now they figured

836
01:08:01.880 --> 01:08:04.840
out they getting they can do a
budget and give the Democrats exactly what they

837
01:08:04.880 --> 01:08:09.039
want and get nothing in return.
Now that being said, there was a

838
01:08:09.119 --> 01:08:13.639
lot of people who didn't want anything
to do with the casinos anyway. So

839
01:08:15.239 --> 01:08:20.319
yeah, we gotta have transli Beerian
in here. Huh ah, Yes,

840
01:08:20.439 --> 01:08:28.600
here we go. Christmas Eves.
That's a little slow, a little something

841
01:08:30.920 --> 01:08:39.800
perfect, got it right here,
got what I need? Now we're gonna

842
01:08:39.840 --> 01:08:44.840
go mad Russian perfect because you'd have
to be all right, so you think

843
01:08:44.960 --> 01:08:54.560
just Christmas theme it up and everything
will be fine. Now now it's a

844
01:08:54.600 --> 01:08:58.479
little slow, I need something a
little bad, all right, but it's

845
01:08:58.680 --> 01:09:04.880
it's the it's the right gist.
Yeah, you'd watch me juggle babies in

846
01:09:04.960 --> 01:09:14.439
health costumes to this? What did
she? Of course it would, that's

847
01:09:14.520 --> 01:09:18.079
my new hot sigle get me in
the a rotation over on the other station.

848
01:09:18.840 --> 01:09:23.399
We're gonna get paid, all right, Lieutenant Governor joins us. Next,

849
01:09:23.479 --> 01:10:10.079
hang on, all right, Good
morning everybody. It is eight oh

850
01:10:10.279 --> 01:10:16.720
seven and happy Wednesday to you.
Case O Day Radio program phone number eight

851
01:10:16.800 --> 01:10:20.319
eight eight nine three four seven eight
seven four. As we cruise into this

852
01:10:20.479 --> 01:10:25.359
hour though, we are going to
we're going to be doing our interview that

853
01:10:25.479 --> 01:10:28.840
we do twice monthly with the Lieutenant
Governor now, so your calls will be

854
01:10:28.880 --> 01:10:31.159
coming up a little later, but
let's go ahead and dive into it.

855
01:10:31.359 --> 01:10:34.039
Mark Robinson joining us. Good morning
to you, sir. How you doing?

856
01:10:35.279 --> 01:10:39.600
Okay? How are you doing?
I'm pretty good. I'm very angry

857
01:10:39.680 --> 01:10:43.159
this morning. Have you been following
what's going on with the Raleigh Christmas Parade?

858
01:10:43.199 --> 01:10:47.399
Are you on this? I worry
about Oh my good. Let me

859
01:10:47.479 --> 01:10:51.319
just bring you up to speed.
So the mayor of Raleigh decided she was

860
01:10:51.359 --> 01:10:58.600
going to cancel this year's Christmas parade
and then replace it with quote holiday activities.

861
01:10:58.840 --> 01:11:01.640
I'll let you imagine what those might
be, of a progressive nature,

862
01:11:02.159 --> 01:11:08.479
and her reasoning was they wanted to
do it to honor the family whose daughter

863
01:11:08.720 --> 01:11:15.239
was tragically killed during last year's parade
when a truck struck her, and except

864
01:11:15.319 --> 01:11:18.720
the family didn't want the parade canceled, nobody could figure out why she wanted

865
01:11:18.760 --> 01:11:24.159
to steal the joy from the children. And now they're doing this gamesmanship where

866
01:11:24.159 --> 01:11:28.920
they'll give parade, you know,
they'll let parades go forward that some would

867
01:11:28.920 --> 01:11:31.680
describe as seemingly progressive parades, but
they didn't want to have a Christmas parade

868
01:11:31.720 --> 01:11:35.680
this year. And some people are
reading that as they didn't like the fact

869
01:11:35.720 --> 01:11:39.520
that it's still called a Christmas parade. If he catch my drift, Mark,

870
01:11:40.279 --> 01:11:44.079
I don't understand as a politician.
This is what I'm asking you.

871
01:11:44.920 --> 01:11:50.319
How could somebody put something on your
desk to cancel a Christmas parade and you

872
01:11:50.560 --> 01:11:55.960
not go this is a horrible idea. I'm not saying you would do it,

873
01:11:56.159 --> 01:12:00.399
but like, don't you talk to
your staff about stuff, even just

874
01:12:00.520 --> 01:12:02.560
to make sure you're not having a
brain lapse on things like this. I

875
01:12:02.640 --> 01:12:08.399
mean, how do these things move
forward? Man? In casey, we

876
01:12:08.439 --> 01:12:13.319
are living in days of lunacy,
absolute lunacy, and so it does not

877
01:12:13.439 --> 01:12:18.279
surprise me that a that an empty
headed leftist would would would do such a

878
01:12:18.359 --> 01:12:21.439
thing. It doesn't surprise me at
all that someone like that would do it,

879
01:12:23.600 --> 01:12:26.880
given the fact that we have politicians
now that sit in the office and

880
01:12:27.000 --> 01:12:31.039
want to defund the police and want
to remain silent while children are fit pornography

881
01:12:31.479 --> 01:12:35.000
uh in our schools and and and
some of them agree with it. Uh,

882
01:12:35.039 --> 01:12:38.840
it doesn't shock me at all that
they would do. And I think

883
01:12:38.920 --> 01:12:43.680
that the people need to speak up
and speak up vihetmently, and uh if

884
01:12:43.760 --> 01:12:45.840
they say they still can't, they're
not going to have a Christmas parade.

885
01:12:45.880 --> 01:12:49.479
I think the people should come together
and have their own Christmas parade, uh

886
01:12:49.640 --> 01:12:55.159
despite them. And uh if they
would like to send out some type of

887
01:12:55.840 --> 01:13:00.319
police force or something to to bash
them all up to hear the culture trying

888
01:13:00.359 --> 01:13:03.119
to have a Christmas parade, and
so be it. But I think the

889
01:13:03.199 --> 01:13:08.319
people should just step to ignore it
and have a Christmas parade anyway. Yeah,

890
01:13:08.399 --> 01:13:12.039
I've heard it's perfectly legal for you
and a bunch of life minded folks,

891
01:13:12.079 --> 01:13:15.840
whoever it may be, whatever someone's
group is, to literally just a

892
01:13:15.960 --> 01:13:20.199
mass on the streets do whatever you
damn well please, and there's really not

893
01:13:20.319 --> 01:13:23.760
going to be any penalty for it. In fact, the governor may even

894
01:13:23.840 --> 01:13:26.960
come out and walk with you with
a with a mask hanging off his ear.

895
01:13:27.119 --> 01:13:31.000
Had you seen this, absolutely?
Yeah, that seems to be the

896
01:13:31.119 --> 01:13:34.079
status quot these days. Right,
So I think that those folks who want

897
01:13:34.119 --> 01:13:38.119
to have a Christmas parade, they
should do the exact same thing. Yeah,

898
01:13:38.159 --> 01:13:40.119
well, now it looks like they're
gonna They told them they could,

899
01:13:40.199 --> 01:13:43.119
but now they can't have vehicles,
which I don't know how you pull floats

900
01:13:43.199 --> 01:13:46.920
with that. But everything's just insane. All right. Let me let me

901
01:13:46.960 --> 01:13:50.399
get over on the political side of
things. So, the back and forth

902
01:13:50.520 --> 01:13:55.359
and the teeth nashing over what exactly
the budget's gonna look like has been building

903
01:13:55.479 --> 01:13:59.880
up to a crescendo. Yesterday we
found out it looks like this thing's gonna

904
01:13:59.880 --> 01:14:05.399
go forward. It will not include
casinos or video gambling machines. Seems that

905
01:14:05.439 --> 01:14:11.199
they're enough Republicans that were also opposed
to it. Many people have criticized the

906
01:14:11.319 --> 01:14:15.079
process leading up to this. I
know you don't get a vote, right,

907
01:14:15.119 --> 01:14:16.920
you are head of the Senate,
but you don't get a vote in

908
01:14:16.960 --> 01:14:21.199
this. Uh. That being said, I'm sure you know you're involved in

909
01:14:21.279 --> 01:14:25.560
some of the conversations that are happening
down there. What did you think of

910
01:14:25.640 --> 01:14:30.439
the process, the casino ideas and
the video gambling, I mean, what,

911
01:14:31.119 --> 01:14:33.119
what what did you think of that? Before we get to some of

912
01:14:33.199 --> 01:14:38.119
the other stuff. I'm curious your
opinion on it. I'm gonna I'm gonna

913
01:14:38.159 --> 01:14:40.880
make it plain about gambling. I'm
not in favorite of gambling. Hell,

914
01:14:41.880 --> 01:14:45.479
if I was counseling the young person
talking to someone and ask me about how

915
01:14:45.560 --> 01:14:48.239
I feel about gambling casinos, I
don't. I don't go in because I

916
01:14:48.279 --> 01:14:53.640
don't. I've been in casinos for
other purposes, because I've been in the

917
01:14:54.359 --> 01:14:58.600
facilities there for compasses and things right, and I don't gamble. I don't

918
01:14:58.640 --> 01:15:01.439
play lottery, and I'll advise anybody
else to do that. I'm not in

919
01:15:01.600 --> 01:15:06.159
favor of of of of that either. That is not the type of industry

920
01:15:06.199 --> 01:15:10.239
that I'd like to see come to
North Carolina. I'm making that perfectly plaint

921
01:15:10.760 --> 01:15:14.600
is as what I believe. That's
not what I'm in favor of. However,

922
01:15:15.039 --> 01:15:19.600
I do believe, uh cases that
the folks down in Robinson County,

923
01:15:19.640 --> 01:15:26.000
the Lumby Indians in Lumbian County,
in Lumby the Lumby Indian. Lumby Indians

924
01:15:26.039 --> 01:15:30.359
in Robinson County should be able to
have a referendum to put gaming in their

925
01:15:30.399 --> 01:15:33.279
area if they want. The other
three counties, however, there were a

926
01:15:33.399 --> 01:15:39.359
great number of people who were viehtnably
aggainst it. And despite what anybody may

927
01:15:39.439 --> 01:15:43.640
say, the process as we have
set up work, the people made their

928
01:15:43.720 --> 01:15:48.720
voices heard. I went into the
the appropriate places where I needed to speak

929
01:15:48.840 --> 01:15:53.720
and speak the folks to have my
voice heard and have my opinion put in

930
01:15:53.880 --> 01:15:58.880
with those folks who made these arguments. And we're in the in the halls

931
01:15:58.920 --> 01:16:02.920
of our legislature and we see the
results. The people came out and spoke

932
01:16:03.039 --> 01:16:06.840
and said they did not want these
casinos, and they made plane and their

933
01:16:06.920 --> 01:16:12.880
representatives heard them, and we're moving
forward now with a budget that doesn't that

934
01:16:13.079 --> 01:16:16.079
is not going to include that.
At some point, I suppose maybe that

935
01:16:16.479 --> 01:16:21.640
issue may come up again and we
can have that fight again. But it

936
01:16:21.800 --> 01:16:28.439
is over and the budget is now
free of that, and we're gonna pass

937
01:16:28.680 --> 01:16:31.159
It looks like the budget is gonna
pass. The only thing in that budget

938
01:16:31.239 --> 01:16:34.880
that I'm still a little dismayed with
that we have passed is Medicaid expansion.

939
01:16:34.920 --> 01:16:40.079
I'm still not in favor of that. But as I've told people, Medicaid

940
01:16:40.119 --> 01:16:44.479
expansion goes through, and the budget
goes through, and Medicaid expansion becomes part

941
01:16:44.520 --> 01:16:46.720
of what we're doing here in North
Carolina, We're just gonna fight like to

942
01:16:46.760 --> 01:16:50.520
make sure we get the absolute best
results of it. I've talked to a

943
01:16:50.640 --> 01:16:56.199
number of people in the healthcare industry. They have great confidence in that.

944
01:16:56.239 --> 01:17:00.159
I believe we're gonna be able to
make that happen. But I'm glad to

945
01:17:00.199 --> 01:17:03.319
see that the General Assembly has come
together realize that divorce of the people have

946
01:17:04.159 --> 01:17:08.640
been heard, and they're going to
pull that out and they're gonna move on.

947
01:17:09.039 --> 01:17:13.159
I understand that that is the opinion
of a lot of folks, like,

948
01:17:13.199 --> 01:17:15.199
we're gonna we're gonna figure out how
to do this as efficiently as possible.

949
01:17:15.239 --> 01:17:18.840
We're not going to get into the
pitfalls and other states have gotten into,

950
01:17:18.920 --> 01:17:21.880
Ohio being a very good example where
it ends up costing a lot more

951
01:17:21.920 --> 01:17:27.720
money. But Ohio set out with
that goal, right, and and other

952
01:17:27.800 --> 01:17:30.600
states have set out with that goal. And the problem is, you know,

953
01:17:30.840 --> 01:17:35.159
Mark, is that once you get
something going in from a government standpoint,

954
01:17:35.680 --> 01:17:42.239
getting it not going as damn near
and possible. So I think people

955
01:17:42.319 --> 01:17:45.800
see it as a failure to negotiate
on the part of Republicans because part of

956
01:17:45.840 --> 01:17:49.199
that was, Okay, we'll do
this, but we expect to get something.

957
01:17:49.920 --> 01:17:54.279
And what happened the governor went out
and essentially said, I don't care

958
01:17:54.319 --> 01:17:56.640
what it is you want. I
don't care what it is that you said.

959
01:17:57.239 --> 01:17:59.960
I want what I want, and
screw you on what you want.

960
01:18:00.319 --> 01:18:03.960
Remember he was criticizing the school vouchers
and everything. And the reality is,

961
01:18:04.119 --> 01:18:09.439
what did Republicans get. They look
like they negotiate worse than Joe Biden just

962
01:18:09.560 --> 01:18:15.760
did with that Iran deal. Yeah
again, I'm not pleased that you're not

963
01:18:15.840 --> 01:18:18.880
suppose you're talking about Medica expansion here. Yes, yes, I am,

964
01:18:19.319 --> 01:18:24.880
Yes, I'm very I'm still not
pleased that we passed Medicaid expansion, casey,

965
01:18:25.800 --> 01:18:30.640
when negotiations that went on behind closed
doors. Unfortunately I was not able

966
01:18:30.680 --> 01:18:33.079
to be a part of those negotiations. But I can't tell you this,

967
01:18:33.560 --> 01:18:38.079
uh, I don't. I don't
like the fact that we have it.

968
01:18:38.520 --> 01:18:42.439
I don't like the fact that it's
here. And I am praying vehemently that

969
01:18:43.000 --> 01:18:45.439
we don't fall into the pitfalls of
those the states have as far from what

970
01:18:45.560 --> 01:18:51.439
I understand, our MEDICAI expansion does
have a provision that what the federal government

971
01:18:51.640 --> 01:18:59.199
goes back on their on their agreement
that we could opt out of the that

972
01:18:59.279 --> 01:19:03.279
we could opt out of it,
and that our Medicaid expansion deal was much

973
01:19:03.920 --> 01:19:11.119
different than any of the states Medicaid
expansion deal. Even with that, DSCA

974
01:19:11.199 --> 01:19:15.560
and Casey, I still have a
very hard time trust in the federal government

975
01:19:15.600 --> 01:19:18.520
when it comes to this, and
my objection to Medicaid expansion still stands.

976
01:19:19.439 --> 01:19:24.600
But again, if it's gonna be
here, we've come to this consensus,

977
01:19:24.680 --> 01:19:27.680
whether it was a bad deal or
not, we're going to do our best

978
01:19:27.720 --> 01:19:30.279
to make sure we can get the
best out of it. I'm really i

979
01:19:30.479 --> 01:19:32.520
you know, and I'm really disappointed
that they didn't include you more. If

980
01:19:32.560 --> 01:19:38.359
that is the case, because the
chances are that you are you there's about

981
01:19:38.359 --> 01:19:41.840
a fifty percent chance that you could
be the next governor if you secure the

982
01:19:41.920 --> 01:19:46.279
Republican nomination, and obviously you want
to have a good working relationship with those

983
01:19:46.359 --> 01:19:53.520
at the legislative level. They know
where Josh Stein stands. But you know,

984
01:19:53.800 --> 01:19:57.199
why wouldn't Why wouldn't they make more
of an effort to bring Mark Robinson

985
01:19:57.279 --> 01:20:02.000
into the fold since from a polling
standpoint, you are leading Republican. Well,

986
01:20:02.199 --> 01:20:04.960
you know the way the way it's
structured, the way my job is

987
01:20:05.000 --> 01:20:10.960
structured. Uh, it doesn't include
the Lieutenant governor in those things. And

988
01:20:11.159 --> 01:20:14.359
we have made an application to try
to stay within the bounds of the job

989
01:20:14.439 --> 01:20:18.119
description that we've had. Uh.
And and I'm gonna be completely tandied here.

990
01:20:18.399 --> 01:20:23.640
It's been one of the most difficult
parts of my job, understanding what

991
01:20:23.800 --> 01:20:27.680
my role is, Understanding what the
job description is, how it's laid out.

992
01:20:28.319 --> 01:20:33.840
UH, the protocols that exist inside
inside the legislature, we've tried to

993
01:20:33.880 --> 01:20:40.880
stick to that, try to avoid
conflict as much as possible when I and

994
01:20:40.960 --> 01:20:45.800
when I say conflict, I don't
mean disagreements. But we've not tried to

995
01:20:45.880 --> 01:20:49.199
turn this into some nasty public fight
that's going to divide us and keep us

996
01:20:49.239 --> 01:20:53.840
divided and cause hard feelings blah blah
blah all the way down the line.

997
01:20:54.439 --> 01:20:58.760
Uh. It's been a very difficult
type rope to walk, very difficult,

998
01:20:59.399 --> 01:21:02.079
and but I believe that in the
end it's gonna playoff Casey. I believe

999
01:21:02.119 --> 01:21:06.600
that in the end it's going to
pay dividends for us, and that we're

1000
01:21:06.680 --> 01:21:11.000
going to be able to do much
more here in the future, and that

1001
01:21:11.800 --> 01:21:15.560
some of the things that we've seen
thus far that we've been very disappointed in,

1002
01:21:15.600 --> 01:21:20.000
I think we may see a Barder
day coming up here soon. Mark.

1003
01:21:20.399 --> 01:21:26.399
You can agree disagree with this,
that's fine. I'm of the opinion

1004
01:21:26.600 --> 01:21:30.960
that when that Phil Berger and Tim
Moore don't need the governor, and it

1005
01:21:31.079 --> 01:21:34.960
doesn't matter whether it's Roy Cooper,
it doesn't matter if it's you or somebody

1006
01:21:35.000 --> 01:21:40.760
else. I think that from a
power play position, those two are the

1007
01:21:40.880 --> 01:21:45.119
most powerful people in the state of
North Carolina bar none, due to the

1008
01:21:45.720 --> 01:21:48.800
override majority that they have, and
it really doesn't matter to them who's the

1009
01:21:48.920 --> 01:21:55.479
governor because ultimately they're going to ignore
what that person wants. Anyway. Do

1010
01:21:55.640 --> 01:22:00.039
you share those concerns, even even
though you guys may have ideological agreement and

1011
01:22:00.159 --> 01:22:02.600
so on stuff. I don't think
they give a flip what the governor wants

1012
01:22:02.680 --> 01:22:06.199
because they don't have to. What
is what is your take on that?

1013
01:22:08.199 --> 01:22:10.880
Well, there are a lot of
people who believe that a lot of people

1014
01:22:10.880 --> 01:22:15.199
who believe that the current structure of
our government needs to needs to uh needs

1015
01:22:15.239 --> 01:22:18.800
to be changed. I think that
I have a good enough working relationship with

1016
01:22:18.880 --> 01:22:24.279
those individuals, uh, both of
those individuals. UH that should I you

1017
01:22:24.359 --> 01:22:28.479
know, when I should I become
donor. My wife always tells me when

1018
01:22:28.520 --> 01:22:33.239
I become governor. Yeah, influence, She's gonna say that my influence will

1019
01:22:33.359 --> 01:22:39.119
matter a great deal uh with with
what those are in that legislature, because

1020
01:22:40.000 --> 01:22:44.239
I've been willing to work hand in
hand with those folks. Uh. Even

1021
01:22:44.439 --> 01:22:49.119
again, even when we disagree,
we have still been willing uh to uh

1022
01:22:49.239 --> 01:22:53.560
to try to keep the peace as
much as possible, even when we disagree,

1023
01:22:54.199 --> 01:22:58.720
UH, keep a great deal of
respect for both individuals and continue to

1024
01:22:58.760 --> 01:23:02.640
work with them. And I think
in the future if speaker more, I'm

1025
01:23:02.680 --> 01:23:05.560
not sure he's going to be there. And I believe so. The burger

1026
01:23:05.640 --> 01:23:10.600
will be when we need to work
together on the things that we're going to

1027
01:23:11.680 --> 01:23:16.119
that we're going to legislatively. I
don't see a problem there. I don't

1028
01:23:16.159 --> 01:23:20.000
see a problem. And if there
is a problem, we will tackle that

1029
01:23:20.119 --> 01:23:25.199
problem appropriately when it when it rises. Yeah, And I don't think it's

1030
01:23:25.239 --> 01:23:28.439
a you thing. Mark. I
think it's whoever fills that chair. They're

1031
01:23:28.479 --> 01:23:31.039
really in a position where all right, well thanks for weighing in, but

1032
01:23:31.079 --> 01:23:33.640
we're gonna do what we're gonna do. I gotta switch gears just real quick.

1033
01:23:34.520 --> 01:23:39.399
For the for the second time here, a week ago you had this,

1034
01:23:39.680 --> 01:23:44.079
uh, this panic at U N
S. And in this case,

1035
01:23:44.239 --> 01:23:48.479
a person stroll in allegedly to a
bagel joint, flashed a handgun and made

1036
01:23:48.520 --> 01:23:53.880
threats. This very same individual,
nine days prior, at a little store

1037
01:23:54.039 --> 01:23:58.079
just down the road, strolled into
that little store with a bat and a

1038
01:23:58.159 --> 01:24:02.119
handgun and threatened to murder people in
there, and was almost immediately returned to

1039
01:24:02.199 --> 01:24:09.039
the streets. And that oversight and
lack of give a crap on the part

1040
01:24:09.119 --> 01:24:15.239
of prosecutors over on the Durham Chapel
hillside of things apparently was ignored by students

1041
01:24:15.279 --> 01:24:21.840
who decided to descend upon the state
capitol and ignoring how do you how do

1042
01:24:21.960 --> 01:24:26.079
you talk to somebody and say,
look, I understand that you may think

1043
01:24:26.119 --> 01:24:30.079
that we need different state laws,
but in reality, if your prosecutors would

1044
01:24:30.119 --> 01:24:33.560
actually do their job, it likely
would have staved off that event because that

1045
01:24:33.680 --> 01:24:40.760
person would have been incarcerated it's a
symptom of a larger problem. You know,

1046
01:24:41.000 --> 01:24:45.319
people who think they're actually politically engaged
and understand what's going on don't even

1047
01:24:45.439 --> 01:24:51.640
understand the absolute basics of basics of
all laws cases. They don't understand the

1048
01:24:51.760 --> 01:24:58.840
basics of all laws. These constitutional
scholars who argue with police officers on the

1049
01:24:58.920 --> 01:25:06.119
side of the road, they don't
understand the basics the The police officer is

1050
01:25:06.159 --> 01:25:11.880
not the judge, he's not the
prosecutor. Here's not the person that you

1051
01:25:12.000 --> 01:25:16.560
are to make your argument too.
You make your argument in port and people

1052
01:25:16.680 --> 01:25:23.840
don't understand that simple premise. They
argue with a police officer who is simply

1053
01:25:24.239 --> 01:25:29.439
writing the citation. He's not convicting
you, he's not taking your money,

1054
01:25:30.239 --> 01:25:36.640
is simply writing the citation. But
this is exactly but the same but the

1055
01:25:36.760 --> 01:25:43.760
same thing applies here. These folks
don't understand the legislature already has laws in

1056
01:25:43.880 --> 01:25:48.239
place to take care of this individual. It is your district attorney that you

1057
01:25:48.560 --> 01:25:54.640
have voted for that is not doing
this. Your protests should be down at

1058
01:25:54.840 --> 01:25:58.600
his office, yeah, Well mean
where your protest? Yeah? And meanwhile,

1059
01:25:58.680 --> 01:26:01.079
the problem is they see it is
that Mark Robinson's going to give away

1060
01:26:01.119 --> 01:26:05.479
an AR fifteen that has I am
the majority and let it rain written on

1061
01:26:05.600 --> 01:26:11.039
it as a fundraiser thing, and
like somehow you're gonna be going and handing

1062
01:26:11.119 --> 01:26:15.640
those out to felons on their way
out of prison less than a minute mark.

1063
01:26:15.760 --> 01:26:19.399
I mean, people's priorities are whacked, man, they are they are

1064
01:26:19.560 --> 01:26:24.199
that. People want to always come
and punish the good guys. They want

1065
01:26:24.239 --> 01:26:27.920
to handcuff the police. They want
to disarm the law by the citizens.

1066
01:26:28.279 --> 01:26:31.800
But when it comes to punishing the
criminals, we do not do it anymore.

1067
01:26:31.880 --> 01:26:36.239
We do not hold the guilty party's
responsible anymore. We have got to

1068
01:26:36.319 --> 01:26:41.800
have DA's in place that have gonne
throw these people in jail and put like

1069
01:26:41.920 --> 01:26:44.680
we say in the old days,
wrote a book at them as hard as

1070
01:26:44.720 --> 01:26:47.119
we can. They don't do it
anymore. It's a revolving door of crime.

1071
01:26:47.199 --> 01:26:50.520
And now the folks that vote for
these people are out protesting against people

1072
01:26:50.520 --> 01:26:55.199
who set the laws to put these
people in jails. Put these people in

1073
01:26:55.319 --> 01:26:58.079
jail. It's ridiculous. Well and
by the way, I need you to

1074
01:26:58.119 --> 01:27:00.600
pick my name for the AR fifteen. Okay, alright, so got it?

1075
01:27:00.840 --> 01:27:03.600
You got it? At one of
those all right, Thank you,

1076
01:27:03.680 --> 01:27:08.840
sir, appreciate it. Okay,
you got it, Thank you and we'll

1077
01:27:08.840 --> 01:27:16.520
be back. Hang on everybody your
day Smarter one oh six one FM Talk

1078
01:27:16.840 --> 01:27:29.800
and News Talk four five PTI more
with Casey starts now. All right,

1079
01:27:29.880 --> 01:27:32.239
good morning. It is eight thirty
seven here on the k c O Day

1080
01:27:32.359 --> 01:27:39.439
Radio program phone number eight eight eight
nine three four seven eight seven four.

1081
01:27:39.600 --> 01:27:44.800
Glad to have you long interview there
with Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson. You want

1082
01:27:44.800 --> 01:27:47.000
to weigh in on it. We
covered all sorts of fun stuff Christmas Parade

1083
01:27:47.119 --> 01:27:54.840
and budget and das and aren't expected
to do anything. And then when their

1084
01:27:54.920 --> 01:27:59.039
citizens find themselves having a deal with
criminals that think, hey, I could

1085
01:27:59.039 --> 01:28:01.920
probably get a bagel up. Great
if I flash a handgun, then they

1086
01:28:02.000 --> 01:28:04.920
have to act surprise. We got
that going for you. You want to

1087
01:28:04.960 --> 01:28:10.920
wait end on any of that,
Feel free to go ahead and do that

1088
01:28:11.520 --> 01:28:16.159
real quick. Want to mention this
do the Department of Homeland? Are you

1089
01:28:16.279 --> 01:28:19.319
sitting down? I'm gonna need you
to be sitting at ross? Are you

1090
01:28:19.479 --> 01:28:25.880
seated in sey? Your tone?
Should I go prone? You might?

1091
01:28:25.960 --> 01:28:27.720
Did you see it? By the
way, you see those chairs? I

1092
01:28:27.880 --> 01:28:31.680
posted on Twitter yesterday? Did you
want one of those for the several What

1093
01:28:31.800 --> 01:28:34.600
do you wait hold on when you
need more than one giant massage chair.

1094
01:28:34.600 --> 01:28:38.039
I actually hit a button and Alderon's
gone, by the way, So you

1095
01:28:38.119 --> 01:28:43.720
gotta be careful in most things.
Oh. The Department of Homeland Security announced

1096
01:28:43.840 --> 01:28:49.920
yesterday the creation of a Homeland Intelligence
Experts Group. That sounds good, right.

1097
01:28:50.720 --> 01:28:55.840
Remember it was a lack of information
sharing around nine to eleven that raised

1098
01:28:55.840 --> 01:29:02.039
a lot of concern, So you
know, you Homeland Intelligence Experts Group probably

1099
01:29:02.039 --> 01:29:08.079
wants some smart people on that,
right. The panel will include private sector

1100
01:29:08.279 --> 01:29:15.600
experts who will provide their unique perspectives
of the federal government's intelligence enterprise. That's

1101
01:29:15.720 --> 01:29:26.399
great, okay, Like who the
first two appointees former CIA director John Brennan

1102
01:29:27.680 --> 01:29:33.039
and former Director of Natural National Intelligence
James Clapper. Can we just have everyone

1103
01:29:33.119 --> 01:29:39.720
that told us that the Hunter Biden
laptop was disinformation? Yeah? People on

1104
01:29:39.840 --> 01:29:44.239
the K's a big committee. I
remember these two are also driving the whole

1105
01:29:44.319 --> 01:29:50.880
Russia collusion hoax. And those are
your first two people, those are the

1106
01:29:51.000 --> 01:29:55.960
first. Brennan's running away, he
was all over TV like yuh. The

1107
01:29:56.039 --> 01:30:00.399
Krebs, a Manchurian candidate, Hunter
Biden's They're not that's not real. It's

1108
01:30:00.439 --> 01:30:08.000
Rushia collusion. That's your intelligence panel. So it's oxymore on day up in

1109
01:30:08.119 --> 01:30:13.319
Washington. Oh, I just kid, I'll look at that all right.

1110
01:30:13.600 --> 01:30:15.359
Well, I said, hey,
this is what we're talking about. You

1111
01:30:15.439 --> 01:30:17.279
want to call in, So we
got Mark Walker just out of disclosure.

1112
01:30:17.359 --> 01:30:21.640
Mark is obviously running against Mark Rodinson
and the governor's race. But hey,

1113
01:30:21.720 --> 01:30:25.079
anyone who wants to call in is
welcome to call in. But I will

1114
01:30:25.119 --> 01:30:27.279
just you know, put that out
there. Mark. How you doing this

1115
01:30:27.359 --> 01:30:31.079
morning? I'm doing fine. Casey. I hope you and Rosster hanging in

1116
01:30:31.159 --> 01:30:33.319
there. Let me just let me
ask you this because I know you called

1117
01:30:33.359 --> 01:30:36.159
in obviously to talk about casino stuff. It says here my culture. That's

1118
01:30:36.199 --> 01:30:42.880
fine. I'd tell you were you
were on intelligence. James Brennan or John

1119
01:30:42.920 --> 01:30:46.039
Brennan and James Clapper are the are
the big brains you're bringing in for your

1120
01:30:46.319 --> 01:30:51.920
your your committee. There the heck's
going on, man. They're the ones

1121
01:30:53.000 --> 01:30:58.079
that led the effort of trying to
find all those former intelligence officers that that

1122
01:30:58.439 --> 01:31:01.000
simply slammed the hunter by as a
Russian hoax. These are the two guys

1123
01:31:01.079 --> 01:31:04.359
that led it, and you're gonna
put them on the committee. I mean,

1124
01:31:04.399 --> 01:31:09.319
how disingenuous can you beat. They're
not even trying to hide their intentions

1125
01:31:09.359 --> 01:31:14.000
anymore, that's the problem. Wait, hold on, hold on. Ross

1126
01:31:14.079 --> 01:31:17.680
has just been named to the National
Guacamole Board. All right, buddy,

1127
01:31:18.039 --> 01:31:24.079
Yeah, that's he hates guacamole,
so well, he'll have to find time

1128
01:31:24.199 --> 01:31:28.039
not baby juggling, uh, to
be able to again. Man, some

1129
01:31:28.199 --> 01:31:30.720
lady was horrified. I'm like,
ma'am, you're juggling. Machettes would be

1130
01:31:30.720 --> 01:31:35.119
a lot more dangerous. Babies are
soft, So I owned her. I'm

1131
01:31:35.159 --> 01:31:40.239
sorry to deviate into that, but
I'm looking at this like it's it's April

1132
01:31:40.319 --> 01:31:44.319
Fools every day around here, all
right, So what's what's the casino thing

1133
01:31:44.359 --> 01:31:46.399
you wanted to come in on?
Yeah. The only thing more observed than

1134
01:31:46.439 --> 01:31:49.920
the baby juggling was some of the
responses from the Lieutenant governor. Let me

1135
01:31:50.239 --> 01:31:56.479
let me applaud first, these communities
who dug in, spent their own money

1136
01:31:56.600 --> 01:32:00.000
for the last four months and fought
to the end. Even though they were

1137
01:32:00.119 --> 01:32:05.000
told that the house always wins,
they stuck to it. So the credit

1138
01:32:05.640 --> 01:32:10.399
goes to the people in these communities
that organize themselves that showed up. We

1139
01:32:10.520 --> 01:32:14.760
had nearly eight hundred people, most
in history show up for a county commissioner

1140
01:32:14.840 --> 01:32:19.159
meeting. Let me put credit where
credits due. These people fought tucsonnel and

1141
01:32:19.279 --> 01:32:24.199
Mark Robins is not correct. No, the representatives didn't listen to them.

1142
01:32:24.279 --> 01:32:29.880
Senator Burger never met with these folks. Mark Robinson never met with these folks.

1143
01:32:29.920 --> 01:32:32.720
In fact, his response to the
people is that he's no longer an

1144
01:32:32.760 --> 01:32:38.880
activist. That's a quote. And
even what he said today that his job

1145
01:32:38.960 --> 01:32:44.199
description really doesn't include creating conflict.
Well, look, your voice is to

1146
01:32:44.279 --> 01:32:47.000
go and fight for the people.
That's what you should be doing. And

1147
01:32:47.079 --> 01:32:50.800
I think that was just problematic and
disingenuous. And I'll also add this,

1148
01:32:51.520 --> 01:32:56.199
if your only problem with the budget, if he even knows what's in the

1149
01:32:56.239 --> 01:33:00.640
budget, is the medicaid expecsion.
How about the MC innovation project. Are

1150
01:33:00.720 --> 01:33:04.039
we supposed to be excited that instead
of one point fill four billion dollars of

1151
01:33:04.119 --> 01:33:08.920
taxpayers money, it's only half a
billion. He needs to be studied.

1152
01:33:09.319 --> 01:33:13.119
And the fact that they won't even
let him in the room to participate as

1153
01:33:13.199 --> 01:33:15.800
the president of the Senate tells me
a lot. So, yeah, a

1154
01:33:15.800 --> 01:33:18.640
little bit on a rent this morning, because those answers to your questions,

1155
01:33:19.039 --> 01:33:24.800
very fair questions, were disingenuous at
best, maybe even dishonest at worst.

1156
01:33:25.000 --> 01:33:27.920
Okay, but what Yes, as
president in the Senate, he may be

1157
01:33:28.039 --> 01:33:30.720
President of the Senate, but he
doesn't get a vote. And I'm not

1158
01:33:30.880 --> 01:33:35.199
wrong in saying that if he gets
if whether he's the governor, lieutenant governor,

1159
01:33:35.279 --> 01:33:39.159
or you're the governor for that matter, if you get into a room

1160
01:33:39.239 --> 01:33:43.760
with the current power structure, with
the override ability of Burger and more,

1161
01:33:44.479 --> 01:33:46.880
they have no there's no reason why
they should care if you're on the other

1162
01:33:46.920 --> 01:33:49.600
side of an issue that you're on
the other side, if they want to

1163
01:33:49.680 --> 01:33:54.640
do something because the math works in
their favor, That's all I was saying.

1164
01:33:55.720 --> 01:33:58.600
Yeah, but here's the point,
Casey, whether it's Rawley or DC,

1165
01:33:59.399 --> 01:34:02.680
you make care, you raise your
voice. You're in an elected official

1166
01:34:02.800 --> 01:34:09.760
position and the people, specifically grassroots
across this state are counting on you to

1167
01:34:09.960 --> 01:34:13.279
speak up. Whether you get to
push the button at the vote at the

1168
01:34:13.399 --> 01:34:16.079
end of the day is not the
point here. It's the fact. Are

1169
01:34:16.119 --> 01:34:19.239
you going to sit on your hands
and do what you're told. There's a

1170
01:34:19.359 --> 01:34:25.680
reason that Phil Burger never stood with
Dan Forest on anything. There's a reason

1171
01:34:25.800 --> 01:34:29.680
that Phil Berger never stood at Pat
mccroy. But he's the first one up

1172
01:34:29.720 --> 01:34:33.399
the steps at mister Robinson's campaign announcement. This is why mister Robinson, in

1173
01:34:33.520 --> 01:34:39.520
my humble opinion, has not spoken
out publicly against any of these issues at

1174
01:34:39.640 --> 01:34:42.880
any point for the last five or
six months. You have a job to

1175
01:34:43.000 --> 01:34:45.520
speak out, whether you get a
chance to vote for it or not.

1176
01:34:45.199 --> 01:34:48.640
Why don't you Why are you going
to do some baby juggling at the parade

1177
01:34:48.880 --> 01:34:51.840
then if you're trying to encourage me
to be the one in the barrel there

1178
01:34:51.920 --> 01:34:57.319
or what, well, you know, possibly I you know, being an

1179
01:34:57.319 --> 01:35:00.239
athlete to a few years ago,
I think we could get to a three

1180
01:35:00.279 --> 01:35:02.359
babies. You know, it depends
on how high to volleyball net is.

1181
01:35:02.520 --> 01:35:05.720
You know that that could be a
problematic there. Who just I'll ask you

1182
01:35:05.800 --> 01:35:10.800
the same question. I got a
roll who sits there and goes, yeah,

1183
01:35:11.399 --> 01:35:15.520
yeah, let's cancel that Christmas parade? Like yeah, I would,

1184
01:35:15.920 --> 01:35:18.119
I would. Here what you're talking
about? We always you know, and

1185
01:35:18.159 --> 01:35:21.239
as you do, condn't. This
is a sad situation, for the for

1186
01:35:21.359 --> 01:35:25.920
the for the daughter, and she
should be represented to be able to have

1187
01:35:26.000 --> 01:35:30.000
a Christmas parade. The family wants
it, and it's ludicrous to think that

1188
01:35:30.079 --> 01:35:33.000
you can just override it or pull
the derminology Christmas out. Let's honor that

1189
01:35:33.119 --> 01:35:36.640
family by having a Christmas parade there
in Waite County. Let's just not be

1190
01:35:36.800 --> 01:35:41.720
brain dead, you know, I'm
not. It's not a high bar mark

1191
01:35:41.840 --> 01:35:45.279
that I'm asking for. So it's
not if you have a good day before,

1192
01:35:45.439 --> 01:35:48.680
right, thank you, thank you
for that. All right, we're

1193
01:35:48.720 --> 01:35:54.960
not asking for we're not asking for
much here. Oh hold on, oh

1194
01:35:55.119 --> 01:35:58.720
wow, look at this. Apparently
the mayor has just had the candy vending

1195
01:35:58.800 --> 01:36:03.800
machines removed from the children's cancer board
at the hospital. I mean the preservatives

1196
01:36:03.880 --> 01:36:06.880
in those stakes, right, yeah. The one thing you wouldn't want for

1197
01:36:06.920 --> 01:36:13.239
these kids deal with that is for
their teeth to fall out, right or

1198
01:36:13.279 --> 01:36:17.000
get a cavity. What is wrong
with people? How is it so easy

1199
01:36:17.079 --> 01:36:23.680
to come up with absurd scenarios that
might not be absurd on their face when

1200
01:36:23.800 --> 01:36:28.880
it's the canceling of the Christmas prey
that God us here too easy? By

1201
01:36:28.920 --> 01:36:30.760
the way, can you score me
some guacamole with your new new position.

1202
01:36:30.880 --> 01:36:33.000
You know, I got you all
of it. You can have all of

1203
01:36:33.000 --> 01:36:36.640
them. Just get it away from
you. It's your passion. Oh man,

1204
01:36:36.760 --> 01:36:40.720
all right, eight forty six race
Agack from the weather Channel. He's

1205
01:36:40.760 --> 01:36:45.000
here, Ross's guacamole. That's weird. I don't like it either. What

1206
01:36:45.239 --> 01:36:53.960
is wrong with both of you?
One for each of you. Yeah,

1207
01:36:54.479 --> 01:36:57.479
I just pass it off. We
go to Mexican restaurants and get it on

1208
01:36:57.600 --> 01:37:00.319
my plate. Everybody my family loves
it. That's because the rest of your

1209
01:37:00.319 --> 01:37:03.079
family's normal. Man. So yes, there's that. All right, give

1210
01:37:03.159 --> 01:37:08.079
us your appleather than Yeah. Yeah, it'll get worse before it gets better.

1211
01:37:08.119 --> 01:37:10.600
But I think over the next couple
of days, not bad. A

1212
01:37:10.640 --> 01:37:13.960
lot of clouds depends on where you
are today, but there's some sun mixed

1213
01:37:14.000 --> 01:37:15.880
in, so try it and west
a little more cloud Then you're starting to

1214
01:37:15.880 --> 01:37:19.560
see some breaks in the overcast around
the triangle either way, upper seventies,

1215
01:37:19.600 --> 01:37:23.640
low eighties. The more sunshine obviously, the warm you'll get. So you'll

1216
01:37:23.680 --> 01:37:27.279
probably have the low eighties low eighties
again tomorrow and then tomorrow night on it

1217
01:37:27.319 --> 01:37:30.119
to Friday, especially Friday afternoon,
we'll start to see the clouds sticking up.

1218
01:37:30.399 --> 01:37:33.439
Low pressure try to develop off the
coast and then might get some rain

1219
01:37:33.520 --> 01:37:35.800
in here, low to mid seventies. On Friday, the winds start to

1220
01:37:35.840 --> 01:37:41.680
pick up out of the northeast.
So timing intensity of rain we'll see looks

1221
01:37:41.680 --> 01:37:45.680
like afternoon through Friday night, maybe
Saturday. We'll probably have a lot more

1222
01:37:45.720 --> 01:37:47.039
on the timing of all that.
Might be a tropical system, might just

1223
01:37:47.079 --> 01:37:50.760
be a regular low pressure, could
be non tropical. Either way, impacts

1224
01:37:50.800 --> 01:37:54.319
of the coast will be greatest with
some gusty winds, and we may be

1225
01:37:54.399 --> 01:37:57.880
dealing with some more beach erosion and
maybe some more minor coastal flooding too.

1226
01:37:58.000 --> 01:38:01.079
So any chance is going up actually
from the triangle east, probably sometime on

1227
01:38:01.199 --> 01:38:03.680
Friday. All right, appreciate it, Thank you, yep, yep.

1228
01:38:03.880 --> 01:38:18.600
And Jeff Bellinger's next hang on keeping
you connected. This is w PTI in

1229
01:38:18.680 --> 01:38:24.199
the Triad and one six one FM
talk in the Triangle. All right,

1230
01:38:24.319 --> 01:38:28.840
eight fifty three Jeff Bellinger Bloomberg Update. Now, Jeff, I hope that

1231
01:38:29.039 --> 01:38:33.239
the stock market is smart enough to
figure out that Don Junior's Twitter account was

1232
01:38:33.319 --> 01:38:38.760
hacked, and Don Junior John Senior
is not dead. Have you seen this

1233
01:38:38.880 --> 01:38:45.279
insanity? I have not so.
Donald Donald Trump Junior's Twitter account tweeted out

1234
01:38:45.319 --> 01:38:49.239
about forty five minutes ago h quote, I'm sad to announce my father,

1235
01:38:49.439 --> 01:38:56.039
Donald Trump has passed away. And
yeah, but they also tweeted out this

1236
01:38:56.279 --> 01:39:01.960
just in North Korea is about to
get smoked and f Joe Biden stupid A

1237
01:39:02.159 --> 01:39:06.960
word N word. So hopefully they'll
be smarter than that, and you know,

1238
01:39:08.079 --> 01:39:10.920
make a run on the banks or
whatever. So anyway, I'm sorry

1239
01:39:11.000 --> 01:39:14.319
Tory to lead you in with that
insanity, but it's kind of breaking news.

1240
01:39:14.920 --> 01:39:18.119
Anywo. What's going on? Well, today is a decision day for

1241
01:39:18.199 --> 01:39:23.520
the Federal Reserve. Economists still think
the Fed will leave interest rates unchanged.

1242
01:39:23.600 --> 01:39:29.680
Blueberg Intelligence as central bankers will probably
indicate that another rate hike is possible before

1243
01:39:29.720 --> 01:39:31.800
the end of the year, but
it will be a close call. Since

1244
01:39:31.920 --> 01:39:36.840
yesterday morning at this time, two
more big retailers announced their holiday hiring plans.

1245
01:39:38.119 --> 01:39:43.039
Amazon dot Com will hire two hundred
and fifty thousand seasonal workers, Target

1246
01:39:43.159 --> 01:39:46.520
will add one hundred thousand temporary workers, and the Postal Service says it's going

1247
01:39:46.600 --> 01:39:51.439
to add about ten thousand holiday workers. Home loan demand the rebounded last week.

1248
01:39:51.520 --> 01:39:57.119
Mortgage bankers say total application volume was
up nearly five and a half percent

1249
01:39:57.279 --> 01:40:01.399
from the prior week. Elon Musk
is con entering putting his ex short messaging

1250
01:40:01.560 --> 01:40:08.039
service behind a paywall as a way
to keep bots off the platform previously known

1251
01:40:08.119 --> 01:40:13.239
as Twitter. Musk says a modest
monthly subscription fee would make it too expensive

1252
01:40:13.319 --> 01:40:17.439
for operators to continue using their bots
and the Casey. A new analysis by

1253
01:40:17.479 --> 01:40:23.680
the job site Indeed says the happiest
workers in the US are those employed by

1254
01:40:23.800 --> 01:40:28.279
Loves travel stops and country stores.
Loves as a privately held company. It's

1255
01:40:28.319 --> 01:40:31.720
based in Oklahoma City. It scored
the highest and reviews by employees who rated

1256
01:40:31.760 --> 01:40:36.840
their companies on happiness, stress,
satisfaction, and purpose. Casey always,

1257
01:40:38.039 --> 01:40:41.439
we got one between Raleigh and Greensboro, and that's where I stop generally when

1258
01:40:41.439 --> 01:40:44.880
I'm going between the two stations.
So I like the Loves, So good

1259
01:40:44.920 --> 01:40:46.119
for them. All right, thank
you, all right, Okay, have

1260
01:40:46.199 --> 01:40:49.239
a great day. Yeah, there
you go. Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg News.

1261
01:40:49.359 --> 01:40:51.960
Oh no, Ross, you see
this stock market. All the money's

1262
01:40:53.000 --> 01:40:59.119
gone, It's all gone, and
it's gone. I love that South park

1263
01:40:59.239 --> 01:41:01.880
me, We'll put your money in
the bank. All right, two quick

1264
01:41:01.920 --> 01:41:06.319
calls, Corey, You're up first, go add oye. Hey. You

1265
01:41:06.439 --> 01:41:10.720
know, at the end of the
day in North Carolina, with this expansion,

1266
01:41:10.960 --> 01:41:15.000
it just shows that there's really no
difference between Republicans or Democrats. It's

1267
01:41:15.000 --> 01:41:19.800
all about expanding the government and increasing
power and control and money. So what's

1268
01:41:19.840 --> 01:41:25.800
the point of having a veto proof
majority if the Republicans are just going to

1269
01:41:25.920 --> 01:41:30.239
do what the Democrats want? And
on a second note, I'm really disappointed

1270
01:41:30.279 --> 01:41:32.880
the Lieutenant governor that a few months
ago you had asked him when this conversation

1271
01:41:33.039 --> 01:41:39.479
started about what he thought about the
expansion, and he avoided the question and

1272
01:41:39.600 --> 01:41:43.319
basically said that the legislator had to
go through the process of deciding what to

1273
01:41:43.399 --> 01:41:45.239
do, and now as they decided
what they're going to do, of course

1274
01:41:45.279 --> 01:41:49.039
he's against it because that's what the
base wants. But then he says it

1275
01:41:49.239 --> 01:41:51.760
hands off, I had nothing to
do with this, so stop my fault.

1276
01:41:53.359 --> 01:41:56.279
Yeah, they're just buying votes.
So what's the point of voting for

1277
01:41:56.319 --> 01:42:00.560
a Republican if all they want to
do is most parties are the exact saying

1278
01:42:00.720 --> 01:42:03.279
this is the exact thing. They're
all about powering people. You're right,

1279
01:42:03.439 --> 01:42:05.640
you know what, You're right.
I should just be in charge, So

1280
01:42:08.119 --> 01:42:13.199
I agree, would agree. No, Ross, Ross wants to taze everybody.

1281
01:42:14.279 --> 01:42:16.039
He literally said, he's just gonna
walk around taising people. Do you

1282
01:42:16.119 --> 01:42:20.119
want to live in that dystopia?
I think not right? Twenty four right

1283
01:42:20.199 --> 01:42:23.800
the light he stomp it. All
right, thanks Corey for the car there.

1284
01:42:24.920 --> 01:42:28.640
It's so horrible, like, yes, even Barry and Baldwin couldn't come

1285
01:42:28.720 --> 01:42:30.000
up with the worst slogan. I
said, you're all gonna pay. I

1286
01:42:30.039 --> 01:42:32.720
mean, I've been nothing but honest
with you. I've thought you meant taxes

1287
01:42:32.800 --> 01:42:36.800
and we already are. So no
taxation is staff. But he's doll That's

1288
01:42:36.800 --> 01:42:40.960
a good point, all right,
Donna, real quick? What's up?

1289
01:42:41.560 --> 01:42:45.119
Good morning, Casey. Yeah,
I was just calling to talk about the

1290
01:42:45.039 --> 01:42:50.039
hack. We don't know. I
mean, that's not prevenan. Yeah,

1291
01:42:50.079 --> 01:42:54.039
you know, I mean his opinion
about Joe Biden. You know, whoever

1292
01:42:54.119 --> 01:42:56.399
it is. If it's not him, you know, maybe we should hear

1293
01:42:56.479 --> 01:43:00.479
him out. No, come on, is North Korea? North Korea is

1294
01:43:00.520 --> 01:43:03.399
still there, so I don't think
it's true. So yeah, and the

1295
01:43:03.880 --> 01:43:10.199
reports of Trump seniors death has been
greatly exaggerated. I have a question.

1296
01:43:10.239 --> 01:43:12.640
If they figured out somebody the US
hacked it, are they going to charge

1297
01:43:12.680 --> 01:43:18.239
them with election interference? Yeah?
Right, okay, all right. I

1298
01:43:18.279 --> 01:43:21.239
mean even though that would literally I
would fit the literal definition when they went

1299
01:43:21.279 --> 01:43:25.239
after other people for remember we got
a dude doing jail time because of memes.

1300
01:43:26.000 --> 01:43:30.520
Oh yeah, yeah, just saying
all right, all right, day

1301
01:43:30.039 --> 01:43:35.159
by bye, yeah, ride the
Lightning twenty twenty four. Who's voted for

1302
01:43:35.319 --> 01:43:39.239
that? It's a new roller coaster
we're setting up and wake forth? Oh

1303
01:43:39.479 --> 01:43:43.840
is it okay to further blot out
the sun above your house? But it's

1304
01:43:43.840 --> 01:43:45.479
actually gonna be on the other side
of the new condos, So it blots

1305
01:43:45.520 --> 01:43:49.199
their son out. Because if you
can't have any son, no one can't

1306
01:43:50.680 --> 01:43:56.239
know to light it up. Tasers
were very effective. All right, we'll

1307
01:43:56.279 --> 01:43:56.840
see you tomorrow.
