WEBVTT

1
00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:45.439
Oh, all right, I guess
we have to good morning six o seven

2
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:51.640
Wednesday, and it is the cac
O Day radio program. Oh wait,

3
00:00:51.679 --> 00:00:58.359
hold on, I shouldn't just say
Wednesday. A note has crossed by Big

4
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:04.680
Stacko Press releases. Hold on,
figure out what's going on here? Oh

5
00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:12.719
it's not just Wednesday. Really,
you're gonna do this right when I'm about

6
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:18.519
to look at it. Oh,
I hate every person involved in the creation

7
00:01:18.680 --> 00:01:30.200
of pop ups. Apparently it's today's
a themed day. Okay, here we

8
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:42.439
go, here we go. All
right, So apparently Hesba Lah has declared

9
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:52.439
today quote a day of unprecedented,
unprecedented anger. Oh wow, Ross,

10
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:57.200
are you feeling unprecedented? Undentedly?
Why can I not say that word this

11
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:00.920
morning? Angry? This morning,
I'm feeling all those words. I'm not

12
00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:05.560
even gonna lie all of them,
all the words, because you know,

13
00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:10.360
last Friday was day of rage?
Right? Were you feeling rage filled last

14
00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:14.280
Friday? I mean we were off. It was hard to be very rage.

15
00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:17.400
I think last Friday was more tired. I think, yeah, less

16
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:25.479
rage, more tired, so hard
to keep up. So today is a

17
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:34.439
day of unprecedented anger. Friday was
day of rage. I don't know if

18
00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:36.879
we have room on the count.
Do you have a show count called get

19
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:42.360
the show calendar out here? No? No, No, I'm sitting here.

20
00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:46.199
I'm looking at this. I'm looking
at this, and right already on

21
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:54.680
the calendar, I have Day of
Unmitigated Malaise? Did we So we scheduled

22
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:59.599
that what like several weeks ago?
Right, the unmitigated that that was an

23
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:01.719
advanced Yeah. I mean it's been
on the calendar for a while, and

24
00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:06.919
that's a corporate thing. I'm sorry, Hesbelah. I'm in a tough position

25
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:16.159
here. Hmm. I could maybe
sneak you in. Uh, this is

26
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:25.840
so difficult. I could maybe sneak
you in next Monday. But I have

27
00:03:25.960 --> 00:03:32.120
that down as super duper double Dog
Anger Day, and I was pretty pumped

28
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:37.599
about that. And the dogs were
happy because they're getting their moment. And

29
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:39.039
you don't want to you know,
you don't want to dogs. You don't

30
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:50.639
want to screw it dogs. They're
useful. Hmm. Uh, this is

31
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:55.080
tough, man. Yeah, I
don't know if I can do a Day

32
00:03:55.120 --> 00:04:00.719
of Rage part two. We're gonna
have to see. It just happens to

33
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:05.639
coincide obviously with the visit. I
guess the uh, Joe Biden is in

34
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:11.240
Israel, or has been told he's
in Israel and is at the Second Street

35
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:14.560
Deli in New York eating some mats
of ball soup I don't know, which,

36
00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:20.399
by the way, was vandalized overnight
with swastikas and stuff because it was

37
00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:36.600
determined that the incredibly famous Jewish deli
might support Israel. Who knew. That's

38
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.879
one of the things that, by
the way, that prompted by Day of

39
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:47.680
Blaze, which is currently on the
calendar. So yeah, I don't know.

40
00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:53.480
I don't know how we're gonna fill
all. And it's already the holiday

41
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:58.639
season. I mean, you get
into October, but especially November and December,

42
00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:10.360
calendar's full, buddy, lots of
stuff on there. You really,

43
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:13.800
you can't come out of the gate
like a day in advance on this.

44
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:17.759
It just doesn't. And trust me, I'm somebody who hates scheduling a bunch

45
00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:23.079
of advance. We didn't even like
that. We don't even like schedule guests

46
00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:27.639
very much. They call, We're
like, oh, yeah, no,

47
00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:30.800
we got an opening because we don't
schedule anybody. And then maybe and then

48
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:36.079
it's a maybe, So yeah,
probably have to get back to hesblon and

49
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:39.680
be like, I don't know,
dude, I don't know that we can

50
00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:51.600
do it. Mm and then and
and so, and I was thinking maybe

51
00:05:51.600 --> 00:06:00.680
I can squeeze him in Friday,
but I have that down. Is a

52
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:09.160
day of deep introspection that's mostly about
the inability of a certain NFL franchise who

53
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:14.600
released multiple Pro Bowl players to then
do anything. And then when they find

54
00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:20.560
themselves ravaged with injuries, pretending like
they'll just fill the gaps, And then

55
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:24.720
I have to think, is that
a team that I want to invest emotional

56
00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:36.120
energy in anymore? Was going to
be a busy day? M is tough.

57
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:41.160
It's tough, all right, Well, we'll do our best to work

58
00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:46.399
all this stuff in, but I
don't know that it's going to happen.

59
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:54.839
Not sure, So sorry little housekeeping
as we kick off the show today.

60
00:06:55.240 --> 00:07:01.120
Coming up on said show, which
again is either rage or malaise filled,

61
00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:11.240
depending on whose calendar you're working off. Apparently some of the some more additional

62
00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:23.560
college students who are not like fans
of the Jews, apparently they're now the

63
00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:30.600
victims for some of the stuff they
did. Like you realize you can you

64
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:39.519
can have a problem with Israel's policies
and record on how they've dealt with this

65
00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:46.240
conflict. You're more than welcome to
that has been a perfectly acceptable societal position

66
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:53.600
for a while. You can be
you can be in that, But then

67
00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:58.519
you don't have to go out and
do stuff like tear down missing persons,

68
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:07.199
posters of fellow students, well filming
it, you don't. You don't have.

69
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:11.000
That's not a thing that you have
to do. You don't have to

70
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:18.399
participate in that. And yet you
know, here we are, some students

71
00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:22.319
did and then they got called out
on it. And you're not gonna believe

72
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:31.560
this, are you sitting down?
They're the victim, I know. And

73
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:35.039
then who did you see ross?
Did you see who was standing in front

74
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:41.200
of the White House gates screaming like
a madman yesterday about about how much Israel

75
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:46.679
sucks and he's Jewish? By the
way, Do you see who was standing

76
00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:50.399
in front of their screaming like an
idiot that nobody was really paying attention to.

77
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:52.159
And then somebody went, wait,
aren't you that guy from the Princess

78
00:08:52.159 --> 00:09:03.360
Bride? Uh? Yeah, you
mean you mean Vincini. It wasn't a

79
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:07.279
different guy, Wallace Shawn, Oh
my god, it was Vincini. Yeah,

80
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:13.480
wow, really, yeah, he's
screaming, I don't believe in revenge.

81
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.840
This is revenge. By the way, do you know what he called

82
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:22.519
the Israeli plan of action? Do
you know how he described it? Can

83
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:28.480
he guess? Uh? The inconceivable? Ah, yes, thank thank you.

84
00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:31.039
See we did not rehearse that,
by the way. That was I

85
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:33.600
just knew that Ross would get there. He didn't actually say that, but

86
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:37.879
he does. He does appear to
be an idiot there. He is a

87
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:39.960
good watching it. He's going on
and on about it. You don't go

88
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:41.639
in on death when it's you know, when a Sicilian is there. Well,

89
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:43.840
look at it. He's going on
and on. Yeah, yeah,

90
00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:48.159
yeah, yeah, he won't shut
up. Won't shut up. Just drink

91
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:56.360
it, man, you're so sure, just drink it. I don't think.

92
00:09:56.879 --> 00:09:58.679
I used to think we lived in
a great world. And now it's

93
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:03.159
like, did you see that meme
going around? They're like the America you

94
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.799
thought you grew up in, and
it's a picture of Britney Spears at like

95
00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:09.320
sixteen, look at all the wholesom
and stuff. And then it's like the

96
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:13.679
America you actually grew up in,
and it's a still frame of her doing

97
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:18.480
the knife twirling in her underwear,
right, Like, if I thought we

98
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:24.279
grew, I would want Wesley to
show up and be like, oh,

99
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.679
you're so sure of this. I
would like to challenge you and then,

100
00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:33.120
you know, in front of the
White House boom, do the thing.

101
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:46.519
That would be amazing. And you
know, frankly, he should participate because

102
00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:48.960
you know, it's it's gonna bring
a little more notoriety to your cause other

103
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:56.840
than you just standing there in a
black trench coach screaming inconceivable. You know,

104
00:10:56.919 --> 00:10:58.919
some are saying that he may not
understand the words that he's saying.

105
00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:05.879
So I don't know if there's some
mental issues or what's going on there,

106
00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:11.960
But I had heard that he's holding
a sign that says Jews say cease fire.

107
00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:18.759
Now, I mean some of you
do, but not the ones running

108
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:20.720
the country apparently. I mean that's
just the reality. I'm just calling it

109
00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:31.159
like I see it. So,
and he looks like he's completely unguarded,

110
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:37.799
you know what. It probably because
he's putting himself out there, he probably

111
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:43.919
should have security, perhaps, I
don't know, a giant maybe, or

112
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:46.200
a swordsman of some sort. Well, no, he said he brought a

113
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:48.240
brute squad. Oh, he brought
a brute squad. I don't see the

114
00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:52.879
brute squad in the photo here.
Are we sure that he brought a brute

115
00:11:52.879 --> 00:12:01.159
squad. M Well, it's still
frame photos, so it's hard to tell.

116
00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:07.919
Maybe the brute squad's off to the
side there. But yeah, I

117
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:11.200
did like this. So this same
group they were protesting yesterday before he showed

118
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:13.679
up too, and they're like,
ah, bucking of the White House and

119
00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:18.279
then like these two White House workers
just kind of walk through them and then

120
00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:22.639
they're like, duh, you suck. So they're not quite as effective as

121
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:31.120
the glue myself to stuff moonbats,
but they're there and they have very very

122
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:37.200
highly produced signs, very nice,
which is fine. Again, that's fine

123
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:39.320
if you want to go that route, and some of these college students maybe

124
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:43.679
should have gone that route, then
people can just judge you on whether they

125
00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:48.320
think you're right or wrong. The
problem is they went a different route.

126
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:54.720
And we'll share that story and many
more coming up. It is six nineteen

127
00:12:54.840 --> 00:13:07.919
hang on, Thank you. Casey
is on NUR w PTI and the Triad

128
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:22.799
and one six one FM Talk in
the Triangle. That's a good point,

129
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.679
I you know, I don't know, because it is it is a bit

130
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:33.159
of a debate. Ross one of
the listeners feels that we are being too

131
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:46.039
hard on former Princess Bride actor Wallace
Seawan for standing with his microphone in front

132
00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:52.519
of the White House screaming about Israeli
apartheid. But in reality, what he's

133
00:13:52.519 --> 00:14:00.240
simply attempting to prevent is the US
involving itself in a land war in Asia.

134
00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:03.679
Do you think that's a valid point? I know it is a good

135
00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:07.799
point. But the problem is,
if you ask people is to be at

136
00:14:07.879 --> 00:14:13.159
least in Asia, some would say
no, some would say yes, some

137
00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:20.559
would say it's its own thing.
I don't know, and there are examples

138
00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:26.480
of land wars in Asia that did
pan out. So I guess it just

139
00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:31.399
depends who you are. But we'll
look into it. So thanks for that.

140
00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:35.720
Okay, all right, rock on, let me grab a quick sorry

141
00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:39.559
I'm reading here this His Spaniard was
bested, Yes, Spaniard was bested.

142
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:50.879
What I know? What? Bested
by whom? Do we know? Do

143
00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:56.879
we know? By whom? We're
looking into that? We got a lot,

144
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:00.639
Look, we got a lot of
irons in the fire. The little

145
00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:05.559
checkout thing at the little store downstairs
is broke. We're pretty sure that the

146
00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:09.039
Israeli Air Force did that, right, that's initial reporting, is that,

147
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:13.200
that's what we're hearing from sources.
Right. I'm having a hard time getting

148
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:16.440
in to my mic today because I'm
actually broadcasting from the cliffs of insanity.

149
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:22.159
Oh wow, is there a rope? Do you see a rope? Okay,

150
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:26.279
all right, you got what you
want to want to do. You

151
00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:30.919
gonna want to find a giant and
we'll do that and then I'll tell you

152
00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:35.919
the rest. So oh wait,
now we're hearing that maybe the Israeli Air

153
00:15:35.919 --> 00:15:43.399
Force didn't actually break the machine at
the little store downstairs. Sorry, our

154
00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:46.440
initial reporting might have been way off. Uh. Yeah, it was one

155
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:50.720
of those days. So if you
do want a day of rage or insanity

156
00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:52.159
or whatever that might be, what's
prompting it? All? Right, let

157
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:56.600
me grab this call here, which
is way not on topic. Yes,

158
00:15:56.720 --> 00:16:02.519
Michelle, what's up? See?
I just wanted to know if you go

159
00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:08.240
play the vikings they were going to
go to you can't because they stop from

160
00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:11.039
the Vikings. Well, what I
didn't say I was going to leave.

161
00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:18.440
I was deciding whether I was going
to remain actively emotionally involved, right,

162
00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:22.720
you're still going to pull for them. Yeah, you know, like somebody

163
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:25.840
decides they're going to stay in a
marriage even though they don't love that person

164
00:16:25.879 --> 00:16:30.559
anymore, but they don't want to
divide the stuff. So right, and

165
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:37.600
maybe one day you reinvigorated. So
well maybe next year if we give out

166
00:16:37.600 --> 00:16:42.559
our number one pick to the uh
Chicago Bears, maybe you can pull for

167
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:47.000
the Bears. Well they're gonna have
all the they're going to have like the

168
00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:51.960
first two or three picks. So
craziness, Michelle, I know, appreciate

169
00:16:52.000 --> 00:17:02.440
it. Thanks then, keeping you
connected. This is ninety four five w

170
00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:07.359
P t I and the Triad and
one six one FM Talk and the Triangle.

171
00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:14.519
So I'm just saying, I'm looking
at the list here and I thought

172
00:17:14.559 --> 00:17:18.519
we had what what is this?
So we have? I thought we had

173
00:17:18.519 --> 00:17:22.400
two guests today. Ross is telling
me, or the list here is telling

174
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.559
me we have three. So we're
going to talk to Jennifer Martin from the

175
00:17:27.480 --> 00:17:32.079
Parade, the Parade. That is
correct? All right, that's seven,

176
00:17:32.359 --> 00:17:37.839
so Lieutenant Governor, right, that's
on the list. What is this the

177
00:17:37.880 --> 00:17:42.519
healer? What is it's a miracle? Max? What what is what is

178
00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:47.079
a miracle map? What what?
What? Why is that a thing on

179
00:17:47.119 --> 00:17:52.640
the show? Is this? Oh
that miracle map? Oh? Okay,

180
00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:56.680
all right, I hear he's good. He used to work with the king,

181
00:17:56.400 --> 00:18:02.119
he did you? I did hear
that? Married? Right? Yeah,

182
00:18:02.519 --> 00:18:04.920
he had a full nice with Humperdink. I think she's nice, the

183
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:11.720
wife, she's kind of a witch. Oh no, can we make sure

184
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:15.279
he's not unnecessarily Jewish, because I
don't want people to think. I don't

185
00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:22.039
see any signs of that playing of
the day there, So all right,

186
00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:26.000
Well, so he's very Nordic,
okay, all right, So he does

187
00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:30.079
use like a lube nut or something
and he gets the job done. Okay,

188
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:36.200
all right, Well on my list, I have Jennifer Martin seven oh

189
00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:38.839
five, and then I have Lieutenant
Governor Mark Robinson eight oh five. So

190
00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:42.359
we'll see if the max thing pans
out. Okay, all right, very

191
00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:49.880
good. Ross is also claiming there's
large rats out in the hallway, so

192
00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:56.440
be careful. I don't even know
what that means. It's a weird day

193
00:18:56.480 --> 00:19:02.079
around here, Percy is really Defense
Air Force takes out our vending machine.

194
00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:07.079
And now this now the reason,
of course I'm mentioning that is because either

195
00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:11.720
a hospital got blown to smotherings or
it didn't, or it did but it

196
00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:15.359
didn't get blown to smotherings with a
missile with a bomb, or it did

197
00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:18.799
with a missile, or it was
dismissal, or the missile was a failed

198
00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:26.079
launch missile, or the whole thing's
crazy. But yesterday it made for rather

199
00:19:26.200 --> 00:19:37.160
interesting news cycle. Claims of up, you know, hundreds potentially dead immediately

200
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:42.200
went out and immediately through the likes
of various news outlets, Keith Oberman because

201
00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:48.200
you know how he rolls and others
claiming that Israeli air Force had bombed a

202
00:19:48.319 --> 00:20:00.359
children's hospital bombed a children's hospital,
which, yeah, that's a bad look.

203
00:20:02.720 --> 00:20:04.039
And for those of you like,
ah, you're you know, you're

204
00:20:04.119 --> 00:20:10.119
unsympathetic to the no, I'm not. I think I think it is horrendous.

205
00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:17.680
I think it is horrible and horrendous
that citizens, especially young ones,

206
00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:25.599
who are drawn into an indoctriative nature
by their own government, who is in

207
00:20:25.640 --> 00:20:32.880
fact a terrorist organization, would also
then be used as a site under which

208
00:20:32.960 --> 00:20:40.119
to uh do things. I think
that's horrible and that's not by the way,

209
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:48.519
that's not decreasing, uh what have
been actual instances of Israeli forces doing

210
00:20:48.599 --> 00:20:53.599
stuff that frankly, probably the US
wouldn't have engaged in, and understandably is

211
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:59.680
only going to uh spur things forward. Right, there's no clean hands here,

212
00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:04.640
and everybody's trying to justify stuff.
But war is ugly. I recognize

213
00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:08.680
that. So when it is ugly, it's really important that if you're going

214
00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:15.079
to report on it, you attempt
to make sure you got the facts.

215
00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:23.440
And while you may have a beef
about Israeli settlers pushing into areas they're not

216
00:21:23.480 --> 00:21:33.519
supposed to, there's a thing about
story munitions under a children's hospital because you

217
00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:37.240
think it won't get blown to smitherings
or in the case of the AP a

218
00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:42.240
lot of people are forgetting about the
AP Tower, the AP news outlet a

219
00:21:42.279 --> 00:21:45.160
few years ago. I don't know
if you remember, there was a building

220
00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:53.640
that was targeted because missiles were literally
coming out of it, and so they

221
00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:57.799
hit it and they didn't even knock
it all the way down, but they

222
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:02.720
hit it. And it also happened
to be where the AP had offices.

223
00:22:03.960 --> 00:22:07.319
Associated press went bonkers, they're just
like, oh my gosh, Israel's bombing

224
00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:15.680
our offices, when in reality,
the building which AP had been offered offices

225
00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:25.759
in by the local government. Hamas
was in and of itself utilized in a

226
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:33.359
military fashion other parts of the building
because Hamas realized that if you have the

227
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:37.160
associated press in one of the upstairs
offices, you can do all of your

228
00:22:37.160 --> 00:22:42.279
shenanigans downstairs, and if somebody does
do something, then they'll get outraged on

229
00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:48.279
your behalf. And AP is not
stupid. They know what's up. So

230
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:55.319
that level of shenanigans continues to unfold. So this hospital thing happened, and

231
00:22:55.359 --> 00:22:59.039
then video started coming out, and
they're like, it doesn't really look like

232
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:03.480
a rocket flying out of wherever and
slammed into it. It looks like either

233
00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:11.960
something failed to take off or did
take off but never really got off the

234
00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:15.319
ground from a nearby area, and
that's what did it. So and at

235
00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:19.279
no point did anyone go, yeah, we should probably get all the facts

236
00:23:19.319 --> 00:23:26.279
together before we dive into this.
And that shoot up a whole hell of

237
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:33.680
a lot of news cycle yesterday.
So I know they want to have like

238
00:23:33.839 --> 00:23:38.640
day of unprecedented rage or whatever with
that, but I'm just I'm just day

239
00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:44.599
of exhausted with everybody doing the same
old stuff and pretending that it's not the

240
00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:51.160
you know, it's new and shiny
as I try to dig through the the

241
00:23:51.279 --> 00:23:59.680
tons and tons of stories emulating and
admittedly the hundreds of people attempting to spin

242
00:24:00.000 --> 00:24:03.480
each and everything coming out of there. So what is the president on the

243
00:24:03.480 --> 00:24:06.839
ground to do today? Some say
it could be part of a larger,

244
00:24:07.279 --> 00:24:11.839
combined one hundred million dollar package,
which seemingly the military is not questioning,

245
00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:18.200
combination being funding for Ukraine, funding
for Israel. Don't. I don't is

246
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:23.119
Israel asking for anything. I know
they ask for some like hostage negotiators,

247
00:24:23.160 --> 00:24:29.519
which I guess I don't have a
problem with borrowing some people. I know

248
00:24:29.559 --> 00:24:33.680
we have two thousand marines on standby
in the area. We've got a few

249
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:42.359
ships bobbing around. But again,
the difference here is I don't really understand

250
00:24:42.440 --> 00:24:52.079
why US personnel need to be up
in this. The Israeli military is far

251
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:59.519
superior technologically and from a number's perspective
to anything Hamas is rolling out there.

252
00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:04.319
So that's not the issue here.
The issue is what will the world do

253
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:12.319
as these things are unfolding? That's
the debate. So the fact that there

254
00:25:12.359 --> 00:25:18.359
are people who are who are licking
their chops at being able to turn this

255
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:23.680
into what we have to help Israel. Ironically, people who would never help

256
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:29.839
Israel in any other shape, way
or form because it wouldn't be good for

257
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:33.720
their election chances. But they will
then package deal it with Ukraine stuff and

258
00:25:34.559 --> 00:25:37.799
then go, oh, if you
don't vote for this, you hate the

259
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:42.240
Jews. That is that is the
theater that is probably going to get set

260
00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:52.039
in motion today. So I would
encourage you to understand that you heard it

261
00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:55.000
here first, I guess would be
the best way to say that. Okay,

262
00:25:55.319 --> 00:25:59.640
all right eight eight eight nine three
four seven eight seven four, Yeah,

263
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:06.319
yeah, I'm a little cynical this
morning. What of it? I

264
00:26:06.359 --> 00:26:08.599
can't help it. I didn't want
to be this way. This is what

265
00:26:08.759 --> 00:26:15.599
years of this crap has has born. Did you see, speaking of my

266
00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:21.400
cynicism? So, did you see
the Daily Wire? Right? The Daily

267
00:26:21.480 --> 00:26:27.319
Wire, which is the Ben Shapiro
I can't remember the other dude's name,

268
00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:32.519
who's his partner, but whatever,
big conservative news site. They've done movie

269
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:40.039
production, TV production. Obviously they
did the what was the the Matt What

270
00:26:40.160 --> 00:26:45.440
is a Woman? Right? That
documentary that was everywhere, but then it

271
00:26:45.599 --> 00:26:48.000
wasn't and everybody said it sucked and
then it went out on Twitter, and

272
00:26:48.000 --> 00:26:52.119
then he realized that a bunch of
people watched it and nobody wanted to admit

273
00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:59.720
it. And so they've they've been
doing various production things and they had this

274
00:26:59.759 --> 00:27:03.359
whole like we're going to make an
announcement thing going on for a week on

275
00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:07.160
their website, which is really annoying
because I send ross a lot of links

276
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:11.799
off of their site for the show
prep and it doesn't matter how many times

277
00:27:11.799 --> 00:27:17.240
you go there, you still have
to weave through all of the pop ups

278
00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:21.960
for all of their promotions. So
they were promoting something, well, they

279
00:27:22.000 --> 00:27:27.880
announced it yesterday and what was it? It was children's programming. That's right.

280
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:38.960
The Daily Wire has producedly four children's
programs and they've actually they come up

281
00:27:40.000 --> 00:27:42.519
with a name for the Broken Key. They're calling it broken Key. I

282
00:27:42.519 --> 00:27:52.880
don't know if that's a latch key
play or what that is. And immediately

283
00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:59.920
the standard media lost their crap,
including The Guardian, who did a full

284
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:06.240
takedown piece on bent Key, the
children's lineup of offerings from the Daily Wire

285
00:28:06.839 --> 00:28:12.039
and they they seem to target their
ire on chip Chilla, Chip Chilla.

286
00:28:15.279 --> 00:28:19.920
I'm not up on the kids.
I'm not up on the kids shows Ross

287
00:28:19.920 --> 00:28:26.880
do you know of a show called
Bluie? Okay, what is what do

288
00:28:26.920 --> 00:28:30.559
you understand blue to be? I
I kind of. Lincoln doesn't watch it.

289
00:28:30.640 --> 00:28:34.079
I just know it's a thing and
I know it's very Marky thinks it's

290
00:28:34.119 --> 00:28:38.119
funny, and Markie watches it because
her best friend has younger children, who

291
00:28:38.119 --> 00:28:41.319
sends her clips of it. I
see, okay, but it's but it's

292
00:28:41.319 --> 00:28:45.400
a popular it's Australian. I think, yes, yes, yes, yes,

293
00:28:45.519 --> 00:28:47.839
it's funny. Yeah yeah, this
is this is what I learned.

294
00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:57.559
However, however, it is very
funny, it is, but it has

295
00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:04.960
it has some progressive messaging in there
which is not gone unnoticed and I don't

296
00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:11.680
know that they're necessarily targeting that.
But the Guardian article is claiming that the

297
00:29:11.039 --> 00:29:18.720
uh Chipchilla, one of the Daily
Wires programs, is quote a blatant ripoff

298
00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:30.359
of blue because Chipchilla uses are you
ready for this? A family of talking

299
00:29:30.559 --> 00:29:41.039
animals and bright colors, a thing
that Bluey invented. So apparently, I'm

300
00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:45.279
sorry that is a claim. I'm
sorry that is a take. Bluey,

301
00:29:47.119 --> 00:29:56.319
the Australian children's program, invented cartoon
talking animals and bright colors, which The

302
00:29:56.440 --> 00:30:07.880
Daily Wire has included ed in Chipchilla
quote a blatant Bluey knockoff for conservatives.

303
00:30:07.680 --> 00:30:19.839
They stole the model of talking animated
animals and bright colors. I'm offended on

304
00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:23.680
their behalf, right, I mean, you do all that work and somebody

305
00:30:23.759 --> 00:30:30.079
just slides in there and steals your
intellectual property. I mean, come on,

306
00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:36.240
man, Apparently before Blue we had
no talking animated animals and bright colors.

307
00:30:37.319 --> 00:30:38.799
And again, I'm not up on
kids shows, so I'm not able

308
00:30:38.839 --> 00:30:42.920
to fact check that ross that checks
out though, Right prior to Blue there

309
00:30:42.960 --> 00:30:47.960
was no talking animated animals or bright
colors. Right, Yeah, I'm not

310
00:30:48.039 --> 00:30:52.720
so sure about that one. Whoa, whoa, whoa, this is your

311
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:56.279
wheelhouse, buddy. What do you
mean you're not so sure? Are you

312
00:30:56.319 --> 00:31:02.920
saying that there possibly could have maybe
looking from what I'm seeing here on my

313
00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:08.200
you know, on the research that
they're they're really wrong. So maybe I

314
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:12.680
mean he's in the wrong search engine. I mean he could hah yeah,

315
00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:15.799
yeah, I see what you're doing
is you're probably using like, I don't

316
00:31:15.839 --> 00:31:21.640
know, some conservative search engine.
Big an apologies for this, and you

317
00:31:21.640 --> 00:31:23.640
didn't even think of this. Uh, Let me. Let me just go

318
00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:29.480
right to the article. One of
Benke's four original series is Chipchilla, an

319
00:31:29.640 --> 00:31:37.160
animated show about a family of chinchillas
who were home schooled by their parents,

320
00:31:38.039 --> 00:31:52.480
and feature Rob Schneider Laura Ownsnis they
really they're really upset at the homeschool aspect

321
00:31:52.519 --> 00:31:59.319
of it too. Do you realize
that actual chinchillas don't go to K twelve

322
00:31:59.359 --> 00:32:04.160
public U education? Right? You
know why? You know why? I

323
00:32:04.200 --> 00:32:08.359
should say that some of them do
because they're class pets. Maybe they go

324
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:15.880
there because they're the pet in the
class. But chinchillas otherwise are rodents that

325
00:32:16.039 --> 00:32:25.200
live in uh, South America.
That's pretty much their their thing. Also,

326
00:32:25.920 --> 00:32:34.400
I love this. While the chinchillas
are are from uh appear to be

327
00:32:34.640 --> 00:32:43.880
from South America, there's nothing vaguely
litinicks about the American accented characters in Chipchilla.

328
00:32:44.400 --> 00:32:49.839
Do you know that the chinchillas in
South America or the chinchillas in captivity

329
00:32:49.839 --> 00:32:52.960
in North America? You know,
none of them can talk, right?

330
00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:59.880
You know that, right? That's
not a thing. They don't actually speak.

331
00:33:02.319 --> 00:33:07.200
The chinchillas. I've been to South
America. We've talked about this on

332
00:33:07.279 --> 00:33:12.519
the show. Do you know what
didn't happen to me in South America anywhere?

333
00:33:13.720 --> 00:33:19.519
Uh, talking chinchilla, because i'd
have went and seen that. I

334
00:33:19.640 --> 00:33:22.880
was seeking out things that I want
to go see, and that would have

335
00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:27.039
been one of them. All Right, there's more to this insanity as we

336
00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:35.160
investigate this super unique concept of animated
talking animals and why the Daily Wires a

337
00:33:35.240 --> 00:33:37.960
monster. We'll get to that and
much more coming up. Hang on,

338
00:33:38.279 --> 00:33:43.359
This is one O six one FM
Talk in the Triangle and Mears Talk ninety

339
00:33:43.359 --> 00:33:51.920
Foupti and the Triad. All right, long segment there, We're going to

340
00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:57.119
roll into the top of the hour
break. We got your news coming up,

341
00:33:57.240 --> 00:34:02.079
and yeah, of the news related
stuff to get into, but I

342
00:34:02.160 --> 00:34:07.119
want to talk about the latest update, the latest iteration of people saying,

343
00:34:07.159 --> 00:34:13.000
hey, you know what, maybe
we should probably have that Christmas parade which

344
00:34:13.039 --> 00:34:20.199
is inexplicably still up for debate,
and the folks went in front of Raleigh

345
00:34:20.199 --> 00:34:25.480
City Council yesterday. We'll chat with
Jennifer Martin from the Raleigh Merchants Association.

346
00:34:27.599 --> 00:35:05.079
See what happened, See where we're
at. All right, good morning everybody,

347
00:35:05.159 --> 00:35:09.400
and welcome. It is seven oh
six here on your Wednesday, KCO

348
00:35:09.639 --> 00:35:15.800
Day radio program, Glad to have
you along. Do you do You do

349
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:19.000
you boy? Boy do? We
got a bunch of stuff to get to

350
00:35:19.119 --> 00:35:22.320
and we got two guests. We
don't normally do two guests, but we're

351
00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:24.800
gonna do two guests today. We
got Mark Robinson. He's coming up at

352
00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:31.480
eight oh five. Apparently everyone's either
surprised, happy, or sad he didn't

353
00:35:31.559 --> 00:35:37.719
stage a coup when the governor was
in Japan or something. I don't know.

354
00:35:37.800 --> 00:35:42.519
Man I admittedly, having a couple
of days off last week for VAK,

355
00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:47.239
I didn't pay as close of attention
to that nothing burger as everyone else

356
00:35:47.239 --> 00:35:52.159
did. But well, we'll pick
his brain on that. But one of

357
00:35:52.159 --> 00:35:59.840
the stories we've been following is what's
happening with the Raleigh Christmas Parade. And

358
00:36:00.519 --> 00:36:07.639
when we last left you, we
were basically at the mayor didn't want it

359
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:10.599
kind of in my opinion, kind
of related. So it sounded like the

360
00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:17.840
parents of the girl who was killed
last year didn't want it, or at

361
00:36:17.880 --> 00:36:22.480
the very least that she didn't want
it because they didn't want it, which

362
00:36:22.559 --> 00:36:28.800
couldn't be further from the truth according
to their own attorney. And it just

363
00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:32.480
was a really bad look. And
we were starting to hear stories emerge of

364
00:36:34.039 --> 00:36:40.719
individuals who really really liked the parade. And I don't mean they like going

365
00:36:40.760 --> 00:36:46.960
to the parade. I mean like
people and individuals and kids whose participation was

366
00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:55.199
life changing. And after making what, in my opinion, is a really

367
00:36:55.280 --> 00:37:00.920
dumb decision, which should be a
no brainer when it ross is your desk,

368
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:06.239
do we cancel the Christmas parade?
We were in this weird stale stalemate

369
00:37:06.360 --> 00:37:10.199
where the Mayor of Raleigh has kind
of went, well, you can do

370
00:37:10.280 --> 00:37:14.519
it, but you can only do
it with no vehicles or any of that,

371
00:37:15.599 --> 00:37:20.039
and that creates a lot of logistical
problems. And I was a little

372
00:37:20.079 --> 00:37:23.039
hopeful because it sounded like some on
counsel were going, hey, why don't

373
00:37:23.039 --> 00:37:29.400
you tell us more about this when
they spoke with individuals like Jennifer Martin from

374
00:37:29.480 --> 00:37:35.199
the Raleigh Merchants Association, which is
the actual organizer of the parade. But

375
00:37:36.360 --> 00:37:44.400
that's where we left it. Well, yesterday public input City Council and Jennifer

376
00:37:44.559 --> 00:37:47.119
was there, so let's hear how
this is going. Jennifer, how you

377
00:37:47.159 --> 00:37:52.960
doing this morning? I'm great,
thanks for having me. So what happened

378
00:37:53.039 --> 00:38:00.960
yesterday? And where are we.
We had several folks at her participants in

379
00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:05.079
the parade, and even her grandmother
who has a child with her grandchild with

380
00:38:05.719 --> 00:38:12.320
disabilities, that she is immobile,
she's non responsive, she are nonverbal.

381
00:38:12.760 --> 00:38:15.880
However, every year she rides on
that float, her chair is secured,

382
00:38:16.400 --> 00:38:21.599
and she spoke about the importance of
this and how her granddaughter she does react

383
00:38:21.639 --> 00:38:23.880
when she's on the float, and
what it means to have her in that

384
00:38:23.960 --> 00:38:30.719
parade. We had a pageant Colin
and leave a message about how they have

385
00:38:30.880 --> 00:38:35.639
a girl that when she rides on
the float, she's the same as everyone

386
00:38:35.639 --> 00:38:39.079
else her peers, her chair secured
and it's too hard to navigate the route

387
00:38:39.320 --> 00:38:45.480
given the distance with the chair,
and multiple, multiple people spoke yesterday and

388
00:38:45.639 --> 00:38:49.880
unfortunately there was still no motion taken
up at the end of the meeting,

389
00:38:52.440 --> 00:38:58.440
So go ahead, this is this
is So did they even discuss the issue?

390
00:38:58.519 --> 00:39:00.559
I know it was part of the
public imp it wasn't it's own thing.

391
00:39:01.280 --> 00:39:07.960
You had said that some members had
asked for your organization to explain more

392
00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:13.599
thoroughly safety plans. I mean,
how has that been going. There has

393
00:39:13.679 --> 00:39:17.159
still been no discussion about that with
any of the city's gaffs. We've tried

394
00:39:17.199 --> 00:39:22.000
to present that several times at the
end of the meeting. There was no

395
00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:24.639
discussion after any representations. At the
end of the meeting, when counselors do

396
00:39:24.639 --> 00:39:30.840
you have an opportunity to share thoughts
or kind of give update on reports.

397
00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:36.400
One counselor did say that while she
appreciated the presentations, she would absolutely not

398
00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:40.519
support having floats or vehicles in the
parade this year. They've been advised by

399
00:39:40.519 --> 00:39:45.519
the legal council from the city not
to and that she was not comfortable.

400
00:39:45.599 --> 00:39:49.239
They felt they have a fiscal responsibility
to the city not to do that,

401
00:39:49.440 --> 00:39:53.320
even despite having permitted three other parades
with floats and vehicles in the city and

402
00:39:53.519 --> 00:39:59.199
that they are not under legal litigation. So my question is, all right,

403
00:39:59.280 --> 00:40:04.039
so the obviously it appears that they're
treating you differently, But I guess

404
00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:07.679
in their mind they would say,
well, this was the parade that had

405
00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:13.679
the incident that sparked all of this. Is this like a one off in

406
00:40:13.719 --> 00:40:19.360
their mind? Or is this the
permanency that is the Raleigh Christmas Parade if

407
00:40:19.360 --> 00:40:22.000
it is to go forward with no
floats, Like, are they just saying,

408
00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:27.920
look, this will be in perpetuity
like this. Have you had conversation

409
00:40:28.639 --> 00:40:31.320
do you know we've had We've had
one counselor tell us that this is just

410
00:40:31.400 --> 00:40:35.559
for this year, that he wants
to fight very hard for us next year

411
00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:38.880
to make sure that this is just
a one time thing. But you know,

412
00:40:39.599 --> 00:40:44.119
we don't know. It's you know, who knows what will happen after

413
00:40:44.159 --> 00:40:51.920
this year. I am just I'm
it's impossible to wrap my brain around this.

414
00:40:52.599 --> 00:40:55.599
The lack of communication, not that
you're not making the effort by by

415
00:40:55.800 --> 00:41:00.039
the city count. Have you spoken
to the maryor directly since then at all?

416
00:41:00.360 --> 00:41:04.800
We have not. We have not. So we've reached out, we've

417
00:41:04.800 --> 00:41:07.079
spoken too, I think every other
counselor, but we've not had a conversation

418
00:41:07.159 --> 00:41:12.400
with the mayor. The father of
the young girl showed up at a council

419
00:41:12.480 --> 00:41:16.679
and we played the audio last week
on the show that that didn't create any

420
00:41:16.760 --> 00:41:22.880
ripples. Huh. Apparently we were
told that there was a lot of folks

421
00:41:22.920 --> 00:41:27.280
that that's why we came back this
last Tuesday yesterday, and that it did

422
00:41:27.519 --> 00:41:30.639
move some heart strings and it did
move some cause for question of you know

423
00:41:30.639 --> 00:41:35.119
what, maybe we need to reverse
this. But then after Essay's meeting,

424
00:41:35.159 --> 00:41:38.639
there was no action taken. What
is? What is? Where do we

425
00:41:38.679 --> 00:41:44.000
currently stand? Just for folks who
are wondering, because we're halfway through October,

426
00:41:45.360 --> 00:41:47.960
so we still are. We are
still where we were a month ago.

427
00:41:49.440 --> 00:41:53.480
The float or the Christmas Parade is
permitted to happen without floats, without

428
00:41:53.559 --> 00:41:59.239
vehicles, and without golf carts,
and so we were hoping essay that maybe

429
00:41:59.239 --> 00:42:01.199
golf Kirk would be ad so that
we could at least for those with mobility

430
00:42:01.199 --> 00:42:05.639
issues have the opportunity to have that, but that was not taken up for

431
00:42:05.719 --> 00:42:10.400
discussion yesterday. So you can do
like ben her chariots right if horses are

432
00:42:10.400 --> 00:42:15.000
involved, or we can we can
we can do horses, we can do

433
00:42:15.079 --> 00:42:19.480
camels, we can do dogs.
That we can do. You can have

434
00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:22.239
people walking, you can have people
on still, you can do all those

435
00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:27.880
kind of things. But my concern
also I had to be careful how many

436
00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:30.519
horses we put in there and how
close together, how close they are to

437
00:42:30.559 --> 00:42:36.039
be in you know, things of
that nature. That's that's a very bo

438
00:42:36.320 --> 00:42:40.199
act. I need that. Yeah, realize the liability. I'll just share

439
00:42:40.239 --> 00:42:44.079
something. So one of the things
that as a kid growing up on a

440
00:42:44.159 --> 00:42:49.079
ranch on Wyoming that had hunters that
would come out and hunt on the property.

441
00:42:49.760 --> 00:42:55.119
Our largest insurance liability was not the
guns, it wasn't the vehicles,

442
00:42:55.320 --> 00:43:01.719
it was the horses that we would
we would utilize for that hunting endeavor because

443
00:43:02.920 --> 00:43:07.360
horses, right, there's a certain
unpredictability there. I'm not knocking on horses.

444
00:43:07.679 --> 00:43:13.079
And obviously they are part of a
lot of parades. Do you think

445
00:43:13.119 --> 00:43:15.800
you're going to be able to put
on a parade? And will you put

446
00:43:15.840 --> 00:43:23.000
on a parade under those circumstances If
we're limited to seventeen hundred's tech, we

447
00:43:23.519 --> 00:43:28.639
will, we will do it.
It's going to be quite a challenge,

448
00:43:28.800 --> 00:43:31.360
to be honest. Is It's going
to be difficult as far as staging and

449
00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:35.960
things like that. And obviously I'm
going to limit how many horses our organization

450
00:43:36.119 --> 00:43:38.360
is just because of the fact,
like you said, that they are unpredictable.

451
00:43:38.719 --> 00:43:43.480
So we've you know, those that
have trade experience, those have you

452
00:43:43.519 --> 00:43:46.760
know, training and carrying carriages,
those that have training in you know,

453
00:43:46.800 --> 00:43:51.039
we've got a group that they do
a rodeo. So they are performance horses.

454
00:43:51.360 --> 00:43:53.480
It's meaning that they carry the flags, they carry you know, the

455
00:43:53.800 --> 00:43:59.079
parade style shows and things like that. The performances, unfortuately, we'll have

456
00:43:59.280 --> 00:44:02.079
to restrict it to those types because
of you know, animal gar unpredictable in

457
00:44:02.079 --> 00:44:06.960
that sense. So it's going to
be very much a balancing act. Staging

458
00:44:06.960 --> 00:44:09.119
will be a challenge because again you've
got to be careful of how many trailers

459
00:44:09.159 --> 00:44:13.000
you have coming in, where do
you emode them. Also, cleaning up

460
00:44:13.000 --> 00:44:15.039
after the horses, it's going to
be fun, just because again you can't

461
00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:19.079
have golf carts to follow them,
so we'll have to have and I guess

462
00:44:19.119 --> 00:44:22.920
you know trash cans strap to Dolly's
and people walk behind them, or you

463
00:44:22.960 --> 00:44:29.679
get the city council to do that. That would be good, right do

464
00:44:29.800 --> 00:44:32.840
not have We don't have any politicians. The only politician that's allowed in the

465
00:44:32.840 --> 00:44:37.480
parade every year is the current sitting
mayor. There's actually a standing rule with

466
00:44:37.519 --> 00:44:39.920
the prey. Oh is she going
to be in the parade? Have you

467
00:44:39.960 --> 00:44:45.159
asked her? She was invited back
in June. We have not heard a

468
00:44:45.239 --> 00:44:50.360
response. Was she in the parade
last year? He was? We always

469
00:44:50.440 --> 00:44:54.480
the current sitting mayor is always in
the parade. Well, that's another interesting

470
00:44:54.559 --> 00:44:58.840
question. Did you have a chance. I know. One of the other

471
00:44:58.880 --> 00:45:02.880
issues we talked about where I let
you go was security in and around downtown.

472
00:45:04.079 --> 00:45:09.599
I mean, obviously, you guys
work with merchants, and one of

473
00:45:09.599 --> 00:45:15.719
the things that helped them do the
merchant thing is confidence of their customer base

474
00:45:15.719 --> 00:45:19.760
are going to be able to come
in and do the business. Do you

475
00:45:19.840 --> 00:45:22.480
feel that if I guess they're not
working on this at the very least,

476
00:45:22.519 --> 00:45:30.840
the city is trying to be more
proactive and providing a better merchant environment with

477
00:45:30.960 --> 00:45:35.800
some of the issues we've seen on
glen Wood and Fayetteville and various other areas

478
00:45:35.800 --> 00:45:39.320
of the city. Or sure,
we have heard that from several businesses down

479
00:45:39.360 --> 00:45:45.920
there that the increased police presence has
been great in terms of the quicker response

480
00:45:45.000 --> 00:45:49.039
times. It does kind of send
a signal to people that you know,

481
00:45:49.119 --> 00:45:52.880
this means business. However, it's
still there's so much work to be done

482
00:45:52.880 --> 00:45:58.519
down there, you know, and
our homeless population is growing substantially. The

483
00:45:58.920 --> 00:46:02.440
drug problem unfortunately, a lot of
people have substance abuse issues and those can

484
00:46:02.480 --> 00:46:06.760
be visibly seen downtown, and so
I think, you know, they are

485
00:46:06.800 --> 00:46:09.159
working on those issues. It's also, though, you know, we still

486
00:46:09.159 --> 00:46:12.760
have a shortage of police officer in
our town, and you know, the

487
00:46:12.760 --> 00:46:15.760
police chief is doing everything she can
and trying to staff that and trying to

488
00:46:15.760 --> 00:46:21.719
adequately adequately address those issues. But
it is a challenge when you're down officers

489
00:46:21.760 --> 00:46:24.440
and down resources of how do you
how do you balance all that with a

490
00:46:24.440 --> 00:46:29.079
growing city and when you have an
entire city that's got some issues. I

491
00:46:29.079 --> 00:46:31.199
mean, since we talk last go
ahead yeah no, no, no go

492
00:46:31.239 --> 00:46:35.760
ahead business, you're saying I was
going to round it out, but we

493
00:46:35.840 --> 00:46:38.719
even we're talking about in the North
Raleigh having additional break ins, and you

494
00:46:38.719 --> 00:46:43.760
know that that area of town,
those businesses are still being hit, and

495
00:46:43.880 --> 00:46:45.559
it's just it's it's not falling down
in that sense, but I do know

496
00:46:45.639 --> 00:46:50.519
that the chief is trying well.
I mean, and obviously there's the very

497
00:46:50.599 --> 00:46:53.519
high profile stories that make it in
there. You had a stabbing and shooting,

498
00:46:53.519 --> 00:46:58.119
a guy who was literally punched to
death, but it's also the just

499
00:46:58.159 --> 00:47:00.920
the day to day nuisances, right
that you have to figure out. And

500
00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:06.599
we've long battled this in not just
Raleigh, but you know many cities that

501
00:47:06.639 --> 00:47:10.679
are trying to figure out how do
we revitalize our downtown, whether it's changing

502
00:47:12.519 --> 00:47:15.719
parking access right making it because all
of these things have an impact on whether

503
00:47:15.719 --> 00:47:19.239
people are going to feel that they
want to go down there. You know,

504
00:47:19.320 --> 00:47:22.800
if you get a scenario where,
let me give you a hypothetical,

505
00:47:22.199 --> 00:47:25.920
let's say hypothetically, you know,
you get the folks who want to go

506
00:47:25.960 --> 00:47:30.159
down to I don't know, like
a brewery near Glenwood or whatever, and

507
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:35.039
they park their car and their car
happens to get broken into while they're in

508
00:47:35.079 --> 00:47:39.880
they're trying to dine. One would
think that that experience would be off putting,

509
00:47:39.920 --> 00:47:44.480
not just to them, but to
you know, people that they would

510
00:47:44.519 --> 00:47:49.000
tell, and that would have an
impact on the ability of others to drive

511
00:47:49.039 --> 00:47:52.920
downtown, park their car and not
have it broken into near say Cloud's brewing

512
00:47:52.960 --> 00:47:58.239
company, right Like, you want
to make sure that those experiences are not

513
00:47:58.440 --> 00:48:02.719
what people are experiencing when they're headed
downtown and they feel safe, and that's

514
00:48:02.760 --> 00:48:07.199
what the merchants really want, right
Yeah, you know, I think they

515
00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:10.280
want employees to feel safe too.
Their employees to also be able to park,

516
00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:14.199
you know, walk to the business, do their shift, and be

517
00:48:14.239 --> 00:48:16.960
able to walk back to their car
and not be passled. And I think

518
00:48:16.960 --> 00:48:21.840
that's a decent request. I think
that's a request that any of us would

519
00:48:21.880 --> 00:48:25.079
want, and hopefully we can get
to a point where we can make Raleigh

520
00:48:25.079 --> 00:48:29.639
safe again, you know. I
mean that's that's something that I worked here

521
00:48:29.639 --> 00:48:32.199
in Glen with Zas for ten years. I love that district form for reasons,

522
00:48:32.400 --> 00:48:37.679
you know. But it's the downtown
area has definitely changed. Yeah,

523
00:48:37.800 --> 00:48:39.599
and then and it's not just a
Raleigh struggle. Obviously, we have a

524
00:48:39.639 --> 00:48:45.119
lot of cities in in our listening
range here and this is what they all

525
00:48:45.159 --> 00:48:50.920
struggle with just due to changing demographics, reinvestment in downtown businesses, restaurants,

526
00:48:50.920 --> 00:48:53.079
bars, all of that. It
is a balancing act. Well, I

527
00:48:53.119 --> 00:48:59.159
am sorry that for whatever reason,
this Christmas parade needle doesn't seem to be

528
00:48:59.280 --> 00:49:04.760
moving. Where can folks go?
Just so they can follow along with what

529
00:49:04.920 --> 00:49:09.639
are your firm plans as they move
forward? What's the website? So it's

530
00:49:09.679 --> 00:49:15.840
actually g r M a sort for
Greater Raleigh Merchants Association dot org. They

531
00:49:15.840 --> 00:49:20.840
can also follow along on Shop Local
Raleigh on Instagram and we'll be actively posting

532
00:49:20.920 --> 00:49:23.920
updates about those. You can sign
up for our email newsletter any any of

533
00:49:23.960 --> 00:49:28.039
our social sites. You can follow
and hear more. Okay, all right,

534
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:31.480
Jennifer Martin Raleigh Merchants Association, appreciate
the time this morning, thank you,

535
00:49:31.559 --> 00:49:36.639
and I'm okay, all right,
look at that well, oh and

536
00:49:36.719 --> 00:49:38.760
I just hung up on ours put
her on hold. Ross. That was

537
00:49:39.039 --> 00:49:45.840
you hear that scenario described that nightmare
scenario where somebody would go downtown and try

538
00:49:45.840 --> 00:49:49.280
to do something and have their car
broken into while they're just you know,

539
00:49:49.360 --> 00:49:53.559
trying to enjoy a business downtown.
You would think that that right there would

540
00:49:53.599 --> 00:50:00.960
send a message to those individuals whose
car was broken into that Wow, something

541
00:50:00.039 --> 00:50:02.960
needs to be done, right,
I mean surely that would stick in your

542
00:50:02.960 --> 00:50:07.840
brain. If it was you and
your wife right who had your car broken

543
00:50:07.840 --> 00:50:10.440
into, I would yeah, yeah, you probably want to do something about

544
00:50:10.440 --> 00:50:14.480
that, be proactive if you were
in a position, which you are in

545
00:50:14.519 --> 00:50:15.920
a position you're on the radio,
but like maybe if you were in a

546
00:50:15.960 --> 00:50:22.440
position of elected official, like if
you get the sheriff's thing worked out,

547
00:50:22.880 --> 00:50:30.840
just saying somebody should totally look into
that scenario I just explained and see if

548
00:50:30.840 --> 00:50:36.880
there's a connection. Seven two Cacoday
Radio Program. Appreciate you hanging out with

549
00:50:36.960 --> 00:50:43.679
us. Sorry that that seemingly hasn't
fixed itself because it just seems inexplicably obvious

550
00:50:43.760 --> 00:50:50.599
that it should. As multiple people, including literally the grandmother of a girl

551
00:50:50.719 --> 00:50:59.960
who is nonverbal and immobilized, is
coming to the realization that her grandchild can't

552
00:51:00.159 --> 00:51:06.719
participate in this event that does seem
to actually shed a little bit of positivity

553
00:51:06.760 --> 00:51:12.599
and into into her life, and
it just makes me so flipping angry.

554
00:51:12.960 --> 00:51:16.000
We're not gonna let it go.
So there's your update. Seven twenty three,

555
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:30.039
Hang on you will one six one
FM Talk and n w PTI,

556
00:51:30.480 --> 00:51:36.400
two stations driving the best in talk. This is Casey Oday and Carolina's Morning

557
00:51:36.440 --> 00:51:43.480
News. All right, seven thirty
five, Good morning. Oh no,

558
00:51:43.599 --> 00:51:49.440
we got some conspiracy theorists in my
email. What are you doing? It's

559
00:51:49.440 --> 00:51:55.840
too early for this people. Hey, guys, love the show. Oddly

560
00:51:57.000 --> 00:52:01.440
specific hypothetical you threw out to your
last guests, they're about the car break

561
00:52:01.519 --> 00:52:07.480
in. No, I mean,
it's just something that happens. Unfortunately,

562
00:52:08.400 --> 00:52:14.519
it's something that happens and influences people's
decision as to whether they want to do

563
00:52:14.599 --> 00:52:17.320
business in a particular area, not
just downtown, it could be anywhere.

564
00:52:19.039 --> 00:52:21.800
Right, You're not gonna go,
You're not gonna go someplace, or you're

565
00:52:21.840 --> 00:52:28.280
not gonna often go someplace that you
feel is inherently unsafe, and that's when

566
00:52:28.320 --> 00:52:30.519
it starts to become an issue.
So in the hypothetical, let's say,

567
00:52:31.079 --> 00:52:36.679
you know, I throw it a
hypothetical. Let's say instead of you know,

568
00:52:36.960 --> 00:52:43.079
the Glenwood South or the area directly
adjacent maybe cotton mill, maybe you

569
00:52:43.159 --> 00:52:47.920
google incident reports of car break ins
near the cotton mill, see if anything

570
00:52:47.960 --> 00:52:52.000
comes up having to do with any
politicians who might be in charge of this?

571
00:52:52.880 --> 00:52:59.639
Do you think, Pops, so
you can understand the sweet, sweet

572
00:52:59.679 --> 00:53:06.800
iron that I'm reveling in this morning. Ah, what a day. Poor

573
00:53:06.880 --> 00:53:14.719
Jennifer. She wouldn't take the bait, and rightfully so, but I did

574
00:53:14.840 --> 00:53:19.159
kind of a lot. But I
wanted her to explain that they have now

575
00:53:19.760 --> 00:53:27.400
they it seemingly doesn't matter what they
put up and out there you have this

576
00:53:27.519 --> 00:53:30.679
position where elected officials are just like, no, you're not going to do

577
00:53:30.760 --> 00:53:39.920
this, and it's inexplicable. It's
to quote one of the folks that we

578
00:53:39.920 --> 00:53:45.400
talked about earlier on the show,
it's inconceivable that you would continue down this

579
00:53:45.599 --> 00:54:00.440
road after having smeared the parents of
this girl and just irritated the app out

580
00:54:00.440 --> 00:54:07.639
of everybody else. Man, why
don't you just go back and go you

581
00:54:07.679 --> 00:54:09.760
know what we screwed up? Yeah, yeah, we got this one wrong.

582
00:54:10.000 --> 00:54:17.119
But they don't. Meanwhile, some
of them have their husband's cars broken

583
00:54:17.159 --> 00:54:23.840
into. I hear there's video,
not that we have access to it,

584
00:54:23.880 --> 00:54:30.400
but what a day? What a
day? What a day? Uh?

585
00:54:30.480 --> 00:54:36.920
Pivoting? Could everyone stop pooping on
planes? Not in the lavatory? I

586
00:54:36.920 --> 00:54:43.239
guess you can go there, although
you shouldn't really, you know, you

587
00:54:43.760 --> 00:54:49.519
want to schedule that. No,
nobody likes that. And I told you

588
00:54:49.559 --> 00:54:52.119
what happened. I was on a
flight not that long ago where it was.

589
00:54:52.440 --> 00:54:53.960
It was a longer flight, like
three and a half four hours,

590
00:54:55.239 --> 00:55:00.760
and immediately hear the ding at ten
thousand feet right, seatbacks back, trade

591
00:55:00.800 --> 00:55:06.599
tables coming out, and all of
a sudden, here goes bline for the

592
00:55:06.639 --> 00:55:13.320
bathroom and in there a long time. Everybody knows what's up, and it's

593
00:55:13.360 --> 00:55:21.159
like, really couldn't handle that on
the ground at all. The problem,

594
00:55:21.159 --> 00:55:24.079
of course, becomes when you have
an incident like you had here last month,

595
00:55:24.159 --> 00:55:30.639
where a plane which was in flight
to Barcelona from Atlanta. I believe

596
00:55:30.679 --> 00:55:39.239
Atlanta Atlanta to Spain had to turn
around mid Atlantic after a passenger reportedly went

597
00:55:39.719 --> 00:55:49.639
the entire length of the aisle and
there's video and it's horrible. Well,

598
00:55:49.679 --> 00:55:53.800
this dealing also with Spanish territory and
easy Jet. Flight was canceled and its

599
00:55:53.840 --> 00:56:01.559
passengers made to disembark after somebody onboard
the aircraft decided to go on the floor.

600
00:56:02.760 --> 00:56:06.880
Maybe they were from San Francisco.
They didn't think anything of it.

601
00:56:07.159 --> 00:56:12.920
Don't know now it was the floor
of the laboratory, so they almost made

602
00:56:12.960 --> 00:56:19.559
it. Or they don't have they
don't understand how a laboratory works, I

603
00:56:19.559 --> 00:56:23.760
guess. Aaron ged Hue, a
passenger on board, told CNN the flight

604
00:56:23.800 --> 00:56:30.320
had already run into trouble pre departure, when the schedule plane was switched out

605
00:56:30.320 --> 00:56:31.880
for a smaller aircraft. I have
to be honest, I didn't know easy

606
00:56:31.960 --> 00:56:38.119
Jet was still a thing because they
had that whole Everglades crash. Right,

607
00:56:38.519 --> 00:56:44.079
Wasn't that it was that easy Jet
or value Jet? Uh now I'm trying

608
00:56:44.079 --> 00:56:49.440
to remember. Yeah, oh okay, So here we go. Two hours

609
00:56:49.480 --> 00:56:52.000
after the scheduled departure. They had
to wait on the ground for more than

610
00:56:52.000 --> 00:57:00.360
an hour while bags were offloaded because
the aircraft was overweight. Going back to

611
00:57:00.360 --> 00:57:07.840
the easy jet thing, I've never
been in an easy Jet, but I've

612
00:57:07.880 --> 00:57:15.559
heard them described as a tin Cannish
tun a Canish. I think that they're

613
00:57:15.559 --> 00:57:17.960
probably a little tight there. So
yeah, if you have an incident like

614
00:57:19.039 --> 00:57:24.199
this, well obviously it's gonna get
real unpleasant, real fast. And it

615
00:57:24.360 --> 00:57:30.920
marks the second incident in just a
couple months time. So there you go,

616
00:57:31.280 --> 00:57:35.599
all right, eight eight eight nine
three four seven eight seven four.

617
00:57:35.880 --> 00:57:40.199
Yep, made that transition. What
you're gonna do? All right? So

618
00:57:40.320 --> 00:57:49.519
I'm I'm looking a little more here
on the The sheer volume of people who

619
00:57:49.599 --> 00:57:54.199
are just unmasking themselves is amazing to
me. So we have like we have

620
00:57:54.280 --> 00:57:59.360
got like university professors. What's this? So this is the guy from what

621
00:57:59.519 --> 00:58:04.880
Cornell. This is a professor and
I guess he used to teach at Dartmouth

622
00:58:04.920 --> 00:58:10.480
in Colombia. And he's got a
bit of a record. Who's perfectly comfortable

623
00:58:10.599 --> 00:58:34.239
going out and saying this by this
shifting funny doing. So it a little

624
00:58:34.239 --> 00:58:37.199
hard to hear as he's being recorded
there, but you hear him pretty clearly

625
00:58:37.199 --> 00:58:40.960
at the beginning. It was exhilarating
it was exciting. What is he talking

626
00:58:40.960 --> 00:58:47.519
about. He's talking about the day
of attacks on the music festival and the

627
00:58:47.599 --> 00:58:55.519
various other areas there in Israel.
And again he's shaping young minds at ivy

628
00:58:55.639 --> 00:59:09.719
league schools, not an unknow own
commodity. Help the women, and how

629
00:59:09.719 --> 00:59:14.000
are those minds being shaped and what
do they do with them? Well,

630
00:59:14.519 --> 00:59:21.920
you need look no further than several
examples that we saw, including a group

631
00:59:22.159 --> 00:59:30.960
of Uh. I guess technically she's
a law student, I guess, so

632
00:59:30.079 --> 00:59:37.840
you have a you have a law
student who was who has been outed after

633
00:59:37.960 --> 00:59:45.000
she and several others were seen on
video tearing down missing persons posters, so

634
00:59:45.400 --> 00:59:51.119
posters of those thought to have been
taken hostage during the initial Hamas attack,

635
00:59:51.760 --> 00:59:58.639
and the posters were in New York
City and she and a couple others decided

636
00:59:58.639 --> 01:00:01.559
they we're going to go run around
and tear the things down, and they

637
01:00:01.559 --> 01:00:09.039
did. And now she's got beef. Absolutely no, not that she tore

638
01:00:09.119 --> 01:00:13.760
them down, that you got upset
about it because you're picking on her.

639
01:00:14.679 --> 01:00:19.760
Yes. One of the NYU students
who ripped down posters of Israeli hostages,

640
01:00:20.639 --> 01:00:29.480
Yasmin de he me A Junior,
who, by the way, once worked

641
01:00:29.480 --> 01:00:37.199
for the Anti Defamation League. You
can't make this stuff up, admits to

642
01:00:37.280 --> 01:00:45.159
tearing apart banners plastered outside NYU's t
hall that were caught on video. However,

643
01:00:45.880 --> 01:00:49.960
says she really didn't have a choice, as she has found it increasingly

644
01:00:50.079 --> 01:00:57.360
difficult to quote know my place as
a biracial brown woman, especially during these

645
01:00:57.480 --> 01:01:06.239
highly volatile times, imediately immediately into
victim mode. Right, I'm a biracial

646
01:01:06.280 --> 01:01:10.719
brown woman. I am so persecuted. It's scrambled my brain. I didn't

647
01:01:10.800 --> 01:01:19.280
know I shouldn't tear down the pictures
of people being held hostage by terrorists.

648
01:01:20.920 --> 01:01:23.960
I have felt more and more frustrated
about the time we currently find ourselves in

649
01:01:24.119 --> 01:01:30.760
and that misplaced anger into actions that
are not an accurate representation of who I

650
01:01:30.800 --> 01:01:35.760
am. Kind Of think they are, sweetie, kind of think they are

651
01:01:36.880 --> 01:01:40.039
one hundred percent. And frankly,
you're up there in NYC. Nobody cares

652
01:01:40.079 --> 01:01:44.639
that you're biracial. Nobody cares that
you're a woman, you're brown, or

653
01:01:44.679 --> 01:01:50.440
whatever words you use to describe yourself. They care that you seem to be

654
01:01:50.440 --> 01:01:54.039
a psychopath, right, seemed to
be a crazy person, seem to be

655
01:01:54.119 --> 01:02:00.880
somebody who's not a fan of the
Jews. That is really what people are

656
01:02:00.960 --> 01:02:06.320
judging you on, not any of
this other stuff you feel as your persecutable,

657
01:02:06.519 --> 01:02:15.360
immutable characteristics. You're selfish, you're
self absorbed, You've been convinced that

658
01:02:15.840 --> 01:02:20.039
you're a victim, when in reality, the very same scenario that you describe

659
01:02:20.119 --> 01:02:24.760
as bringing about your victimhood really ain't
a big deal in New York City,

660
01:02:27.840 --> 01:02:36.119
but remarkably would create uneven and unfair
situations for you, likely in some of

661
01:02:36.159 --> 01:02:43.840
the places that you are seemingly wishing
to represent. And she wasn't alone.

662
01:02:44.079 --> 01:02:53.039
Multiple literally, multiple people in the
medical field also just couldn't shut up long

663
01:02:53.159 --> 01:02:59.400
enough after this to not get themselves
either fired, suspended, or at least

664
01:02:59.440 --> 01:03:02.960
looked at. We have multiple stories
of that, so we'll get to all

665
01:03:02.960 --> 01:03:06.960
of it. But first, Race
Stagic from the Weather Channel. He's here

666
01:03:07.440 --> 01:03:12.920
and he's gotten not multiple just one
story. It's called the weather and it's

667
01:03:13.159 --> 01:03:16.119
it is what it is, so
yeah it is, you know, yeah,

668
01:03:16.480 --> 01:03:21.840
and it's not actually bad forecast right
through the weekend. There's kind of

669
01:03:21.840 --> 01:03:25.199
one day a little iffy, and
it's probably gonna be mostly a night Friday

670
01:03:25.280 --> 01:03:30.000
night, but maybe between next couple
of days and the days after that,

671
01:03:30.039 --> 01:03:32.000
including the weekend, gonna be real
nice. So it's a pretty good story

672
01:03:32.039 --> 01:03:36.480
to tell. Some clouds around this
morning, there may be some fogging spots,

673
01:03:36.480 --> 01:03:38.199
but we're starting to see some clearing
and some sun already in spots.

674
01:03:38.639 --> 01:03:43.360
Low seventies this afternoon, probably stay
in the upper sixties and try it in

675
01:03:43.440 --> 01:03:45.960
points west tonight in the forties.
Tomorrow will be in the low seventies,

676
01:03:46.079 --> 01:03:50.320
and then some showers around as we
get in through late Friday into Friday evening

677
01:03:50.320 --> 01:03:53.400
and Friday night, maybe even a
thunderstorm still though we'll be out our above

678
01:03:53.440 --> 01:03:57.840
seventy degrees on Friday, So we
go one two, two and a half

679
01:03:57.920 --> 01:04:01.000
maybe two and three quarters days with
dryway before those showers thutter showers come in.

680
01:04:01.360 --> 01:04:04.119
That's all associated with a front and
back behind the front for the weekend,

681
01:04:04.559 --> 01:04:09.159
dry and cool and sunny, mid
upper sixties during the day, and

682
01:04:09.320 --> 01:04:12.719
we'll have upper forties to near fifty
at night, maybe some low forties at

683
01:04:12.719 --> 01:04:15.280
a little bit cooler early next week. So casey not terrible, just got

684
01:04:15.320 --> 01:04:19.519
that one little kind of flying the
ointment there Friday evening and Friday night.

685
01:04:19.920 --> 01:04:23.599
Other than that we should be in
real good shape here over the next five

686
01:04:23.639 --> 01:04:27.519
to maybe seven days. So they
put out the standard what's the worst Halloween

687
01:04:27.599 --> 01:04:31.440
candy thing? And what do you
think won this year? I don't know.

688
01:04:31.519 --> 01:04:35.199
Candy corn, Yeah, that's what
that's what you think, right,

689
01:04:35.239 --> 01:04:41.039
because candy corn wins a lot,
not candy corn. Oh okay, ready,

690
01:04:41.639 --> 01:04:45.400
laughy taffy. Never heard of it? But do you mean you never

691
01:04:45.440 --> 01:04:51.119
heard? You've never heard of laughy
taffy? Nah, I'm mainstream, you

692
01:04:51.159 --> 01:04:56.480
know, I'm M and M Snickers? Is that not laughing stream? Laffy

693
01:04:56.519 --> 01:05:01.719
Taffy's not mainstream? Well, maybe
wrong. It's garbage, banana, especially

694
01:05:01.719 --> 01:05:06.280
banana laffy taffy, straight garbage,
right, you know, kill it with

695
01:05:06.360 --> 01:05:12.199
fire, that being said, candy
corn man, Okay, I can't believe

696
01:05:12.199 --> 01:05:15.599
you don't know laughy tack. Well
look at the simple man. Ve you

697
01:05:15.639 --> 01:05:20.079
got a vending machine there, go
check it out the home office. Now,

698
01:05:20.480 --> 01:05:25.679
oh all right, that's that's probably
fair. All right, thank you,

699
01:05:25.719 --> 01:05:30.760
sir. Appreciate It is laffy taffy
not mainstream. And I don't even

700
01:05:30.840 --> 01:05:33.159
like candy, and I just assume
it if you go trigger trading and somebody

701
01:05:33.199 --> 01:05:36.599
gives you laughing taffy you have,
you can you you can just own their

702
01:05:36.599 --> 01:05:39.920
home. You're like, this is
my house. Now, that's how it

703
01:05:39.920 --> 01:05:45.039
works. It's absolute poverty. Nobody
wants that candy. Nobody wants I understand

704
01:05:45.039 --> 01:05:50.800
the banana laffy taffy. I just
remember banana laffy taffy being gross. Yeah,

705
01:05:50.880 --> 01:05:56.239
no, it's gross, but they
have other laffy taffies the whole,

706
01:05:56.360 --> 01:05:59.440
So all of it's gross. Doesn't
matter the flavor. If somebody gives you

707
01:05:59.559 --> 01:06:01.880
life. I I see that in
my son's like, you know, Halloween

708
01:06:02.360 --> 01:06:09.039
bag or whatever. It's going in
the trash. I didn't realize people felt

709
01:06:09.079 --> 01:06:12.880
so strongly about it, so it's
nasty. I had no idea. I

710
01:06:12.960 --> 01:06:16.840
just assumed it's and it has the
characteristics that are the things I would hate

711
01:06:16.880 --> 01:06:24.039
most about candy. So I I
can't I'm sure. I'm positive I've tried

712
01:06:24.079 --> 01:06:29.719
it, but there's nothing that appeals
to me. But I'm assuming it's just

713
01:06:29.800 --> 01:06:32.599
sticky, sweet gooiness, which you
know, if you're into candy. I

714
01:06:32.599 --> 01:06:36.840
don't understand why that's a problem.
Okay, all right, So that's more

715
01:06:36.840 --> 01:06:42.239
offensive than the people who have stuck
Rambo knives and guns and grenades in your

716
01:06:42.320 --> 01:06:45.239
child's candy at least, so you
can use that for self defense to defend

717
01:06:45.239 --> 01:06:46.239
your family once you find it.
You know, have you go through your

718
01:06:46.320 --> 01:06:49.159
kids candy laughing taffy? What are
you gonna do with it? Well,

719
01:06:49.159 --> 01:06:53.079
if it gets really hard, I
understand it gets pretty, you can sharpen

720
01:06:53.119 --> 01:06:56.960
it like a prison shive. You
can use it like for hurricanes and stuff

721
01:06:57.000 --> 01:07:00.079
like if your house springs a leak. Oh, that's good point. Or

722
01:07:00.079 --> 01:07:01.880
you gotta, you know, keep
the windows, seal the windows or something.

723
01:07:02.280 --> 01:07:05.280
All right, look at that Ross
is going on mcguiver on this.

724
01:07:05.400 --> 01:07:13.719
So apparently it was voted the worst
Halloween candy and I Ray doesn't either know

725
01:07:13.800 --> 01:07:16.679
what it is and uh Ross is
firmly against it. I had no idea

726
01:07:16.760 --> 01:07:20.159
that there was this much passion.
But anyway, we'll be back. Hang

727
01:07:20.239 --> 01:07:28.159
on your day, Smarter one O
six one FM Talk and News Talk ninety

728
01:07:28.159 --> 01:07:35.760
four to five w PTI more with
Casey starts now. All right, good

729
01:07:36.039 --> 01:07:40.960
morning, seven fifty six. Let
me grab a quick phone call reminder.

730
01:07:41.000 --> 01:07:45.519
Coming up eight oh five Lieutenant Governor
Mark Robinson, who some newspaper editors thought

731
01:07:45.599 --> 01:07:50.039
was going to stage a coup last
week and then when he didn't seem to

732
01:07:50.079 --> 01:07:55.119
be more disappointed than that for whatever
reason. Well, we'll chat with him.

733
01:07:55.679 --> 01:07:58.400
Uh, let me grab this,
Jimmy, got about a minute.

734
01:07:58.440 --> 01:08:02.360
What's up? Yes, sir,
I think what the city council is doing

735
01:08:03.079 --> 01:08:12.599
is they'll wait after the election to
make a decision because it's so controversial on

736
01:08:12.639 --> 01:08:18.239
the on the Christmas parade. Well, the election is the parades before.

737
01:08:19.239 --> 01:08:26.640
So I'm confused. What's the what's
the Okay? I thought I thought he

738
01:08:26.720 --> 01:08:30.439
was after the election? Oh okay, and I thought you were joking.

739
01:08:30.560 --> 01:08:34.039
You're serious. Okay, I don't
know. I don't know, okay.

740
01:08:34.239 --> 01:08:40.199
And what they could do, let's
get to the important stuff is laffy taffy?

741
01:08:40.239 --> 01:08:45.520
Good? Yeah, okay? And
what the kid did? Had the

742
01:08:45.520 --> 01:08:50.960
horses pull the floats? Well you
could do that. What if what if

743
01:08:51.000 --> 01:08:57.680
you had vehicles tugging horses just as
a big f you you know what I'm

744
01:08:57.680 --> 01:09:02.560
saying, just kind of dragging him
along. I'm rooting for me. That

745
01:09:02.600 --> 01:09:05.880
would work. So all right,
all right, thank you appreciate it.

746
01:09:06.000 --> 01:09:09.720
Call this morning. I have a
good one. So he's pro laughy taffy

747
01:09:09.920 --> 01:09:15.960
and horses being drug against their will. I'm good. Mark and I are

748
01:09:15.960 --> 01:09:20.520
actually texting on the on the Halloween
candy thing right now, Mark Robertson,

749
01:09:20.520 --> 01:09:25.199
we're texting right now. Okay.
He says there is worse than laughing taffy,

750
01:09:25.239 --> 01:09:30.079
and he's like sending me examples.
I was gonna I was gonna ask

751
01:09:30.159 --> 01:09:33.399
him how he felt on but you
know he's also he has an opinion.

752
01:09:33.439 --> 01:09:38.119
I know you're shocked he's but he's
a politician, so he's gonna be like,

753
01:09:38.279 --> 01:09:43.319
well, ah, candy is good
except the candy you don't like,

754
01:09:43.439 --> 01:09:46.079
and then it's not. Well,
I have the photo evidence. What did

755
01:09:46.079 --> 01:09:49.640
he say? Okay, hold on
me forward that to me. All right,

756
01:09:49.680 --> 01:09:55.079
well that's right. We're gonna bring
the lieutenant governor who's also a gubernatorial

757
01:09:55.159 --> 01:10:25.960
candidate in and we're gonna talk about
King. All right, Good morning,

758
01:10:26.159 --> 01:10:35.279
everybody, and welcome our number three
Happy Wednesday pc O Day radio program.

759
01:10:35.279 --> 01:10:40.079
Glad to have you long phone number
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight

760
01:10:40.159 --> 01:10:53.000
seventy four. Uh, Israeli Air
Force take out our phones. Sorry,

761
01:10:53.159 --> 01:10:56.039
I keep making that. People getting
mad at me. I'm pointing it out

762
01:10:56.079 --> 01:10:59.600
because yesterday and now I'm seeing more
and more and more of this, and

763
01:10:59.640 --> 01:11:05.680
I Ross, I appreciate you.
Ross reposted something that Pete Calendar had reposted,

764
01:11:06.119 --> 01:11:15.920
which is a thread really talking about
this quote unquote hospital attack and with

765
01:11:15.920 --> 01:11:21.960
with pictures so as to determine whether, in fact it does look like a

766
01:11:23.079 --> 01:11:30.239
high end, highly technical Israeli missile
did slam into this area and intentionally target

767
01:11:30.279 --> 01:11:32.680
a children's hospital, or if there
might be a little some something else going

768
01:11:32.720 --> 01:11:39.079
on there, like I don't know, failed launch detonation or you know,

769
01:11:39.199 --> 01:11:44.560
crappy marksmanship on the part of others, since nothing else around it seems to

770
01:11:44.560 --> 01:11:49.039
be blown to smithereens. But you
know, the media went with the one

771
01:11:49.159 --> 01:11:54.479
narrative over the others. So all
right, anyway, all right, Pire's

772
01:11:54.479 --> 01:11:58.800
it's fixed, so they didn't do
it. Let's grab Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson

773
01:11:58.800 --> 01:12:01.439
who joins us sporting Mark you,
Hey, how you doing? Case?

774
01:12:01.640 --> 01:12:05.840
Good beer? All right? Before
I get to the coup that people thought

775
01:12:05.880 --> 01:12:12.520
you were going to stage, I
got the important stuff. So apparently candy

776
01:12:12.560 --> 01:12:17.039
corn not the worst candy according to
this year's survey's laugh he taff He Ross

777
01:12:17.039 --> 01:12:20.520
seems to be on board with that, but he was telling me you were

778
01:12:20.560 --> 01:12:25.319
hitting him up with some other stuff. So uh, let's let's get to

779
01:12:25.319 --> 01:12:28.880
the important stuff. Where are you
out on the candy stuff? Yeah,

780
01:12:29.000 --> 01:12:31.319
A candy corn is no, it's
right a bit at the top of my

781
01:12:32.039 --> 01:12:38.640
least favorite food ever. Candy corn
is not good. Uh. I know

782
01:12:38.720 --> 01:12:41.520
that a lot of people that love
candy corn, God bless them, but

783
01:12:41.640 --> 01:12:45.359
I'm not one of them. Candy
corn is basically just stuff that I think

784
01:12:45.399 --> 01:12:49.640
Satan puts out there wat people steep
out, so what he does, I'm

785
01:12:49.640 --> 01:12:53.640
not. I hate candy corn.
I don't like it. Uh. Circus

786
01:12:53.680 --> 01:12:56.560
peanut is another one that I've never
liked, even as a child. I

787
01:12:56.680 --> 01:13:02.720
never liked that Nico Wafer's. I
know that Bobby wipers, God bless them.

788
01:13:02.720 --> 01:13:05.439
I don't. I don't, I
don't. I don't like Nico wafers.

789
01:13:05.960 --> 01:13:10.279
That's that's like a trick to get
you to eat a tic tac.

790
01:13:10.520 --> 01:13:13.720
I never understood that. I thought
that was European candy when I was a

791
01:13:13.840 --> 01:13:16.960
kid, and it made me not
like Europe because that was I think.

792
01:13:17.199 --> 01:13:20.840
I think we're all put it best
in all those short conversation. It's like

793
01:13:21.239 --> 01:13:26.800
Tom's without the antacids benefit. That's
a good point. Yeah, yeah,

794
01:13:26.920 --> 01:13:30.640
how are you on the taffy itself? Though? Yeah, yeah, is

795
01:13:30.680 --> 01:13:33.520
not that bad, especially if you're
down loose and you need to pull it

796
01:13:33.560 --> 01:13:38.439
out. It's great. Okay,
all right, well that is a benefit.

797
01:13:38.479 --> 01:13:43.000
I had a guy, uh mark
you part of the governor lieutenant governor's

798
01:13:43.000 --> 01:13:46.600
gig. You guys, your security
is what state North Carolina state troopers?

799
01:13:46.680 --> 01:13:50.039
Right? Yes, yes, all
right? Can I borrow some guys?

800
01:13:50.079 --> 01:13:56.359
Send me an email? And he
said his least favorite Halloween candy is Reese's

801
01:13:56.439 --> 01:14:00.000
Cups because he doesn't like peanut butter. Can I borrow some of your true

802
01:14:00.439 --> 01:14:02.520
so we can get this guy out
of the state. Is that a thing

803
01:14:03.039 --> 01:14:06.479
I can do? I don't think
that would be legal, but it certainly

804
01:14:06.520 --> 01:14:10.279
is an ideal. Come on,
who doesn't like Reci's peanut butter cups?

805
01:14:10.720 --> 01:14:15.319
Apparently Jim, who lives and done
so God bless Jim Man. Like I

806
01:14:15.359 --> 01:14:18.560
said, everybody's got dim for case. But but I love, loved the

807
01:14:18.560 --> 01:14:23.640
peanut butter cups, so don't keep
them going, keep them going. I

808
01:14:23.680 --> 01:14:29.159
don't feel that Johnson County should have
to suffer Jim, so obviously he's obviously

809
01:14:29.199 --> 01:14:31.319
not a stable person. All right. Now, speaking of not stableman.

810
01:14:32.039 --> 01:14:41.640
Yeah, the uh uh, speaking
of not stable man. The twenty four

811
01:14:41.680 --> 01:14:47.239
hours from when you said, hey, I got me an announcement and oh,

812
01:14:47.319 --> 01:14:50.880
by the way, I'm the acting
governor, and before you actually did

813
01:14:50.920 --> 01:14:58.840
the announcement, the amount of wild
tall tale conspiracy theories about what you were

814
01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:02.800
up to that came out was wildly
entertaining to me. So for those of

815
01:15:02.960 --> 01:15:09.600
those who don't know, when the
governor of North Carolina is not here,

816
01:15:10.439 --> 01:15:14.520
the lieutenant governor is technically the acting
governor. There's certain situations, either he's

817
01:15:14.560 --> 01:15:17.760
absent from the state or it's similar
to like the twenty fifth up in the

818
01:15:17.800 --> 01:15:24.199
federal presidential thing, where if he's
incapacitated, then the lieutenant governor would step

819
01:15:24.279 --> 01:15:27.439
in. But when he's out of
the state, and for the most part,

820
01:15:27.880 --> 01:15:31.760
it's just a thing that exists in
the background. Nothing really happens,

821
01:15:31.880 --> 01:15:36.439
right, you're not out there moving
your stuff into into the governor's mansion.

822
01:15:36.840 --> 01:15:43.960
However, you did take the opportunity
during Roy's visit to Japan to announce that

823
01:15:44.000 --> 01:15:46.079
you were going to do something,
and they thought you were going to stage

824
01:15:46.079 --> 01:15:51.760
a coup. You didn't stage a
coup. What did you do? Well,

825
01:15:51.800 --> 01:15:59.159
we declared a week of solidarity with
the people of Israeld the nation of

826
01:15:59.199 --> 01:16:02.199
Bisal and we established it a day
of prayer for the nation of visual because

827
01:16:02.239 --> 01:16:05.239
we felt like it was something that
needed to be done. Uh. Let

828
01:16:05.239 --> 01:16:09.640
me make this clear. This wasn't
something to try to upstage the governor,

829
01:16:10.119 --> 01:16:13.760
but we did feel like that the
governor, you know, the governor,

830
01:16:13.840 --> 01:16:16.960
let's just let's just get down the
right to brass tacks. He spent no

831
01:16:17.079 --> 01:16:20.760
time in coming on television during COVID
to tell people they had to shut down

832
01:16:20.800 --> 01:16:24.880
their businesses and then they couldn't go
to church. He did it, uh,

833
01:16:25.119 --> 01:16:30.279
without hesitation when these attacks took place. Uh, immediately the governor should

834
01:16:30.279 --> 01:16:34.279
have come out to show a sign, to show a strong stand of solidarity

835
01:16:34.359 --> 01:16:38.319
with our strongest all lit Israel.
He should have. He should have done

836
01:16:38.319 --> 01:16:41.319
it. Uh. From from my
purview, he should have done it in

837
01:16:42.000 --> 01:16:45.000
the day, the day after,
or or close to. It should have

838
01:16:45.039 --> 01:16:50.199
been done immediately. Uh. The
flags weren't lowered until the day we announced

839
01:16:50.199 --> 01:16:56.079
that we were going to have a
conference or press conference. Uh, and

840
01:16:56.279 --> 01:16:58.760
I still think that was far too
late. He should have done it.

841
01:16:58.800 --> 01:17:02.159
He should have done on television instead. Of it from doing it from Japan.

842
01:17:02.880 --> 01:17:05.399
He should have called the press conference
and he should have made it clear

843
01:17:05.479 --> 01:17:10.039
that the State of North Carolina stands
in solidarity with Israel. He didn't do

844
01:17:10.079 --> 01:17:14.119
it it. So we took we
took the the ability that we had to

845
01:17:14.159 --> 01:17:17.359
do that to show the state,
to show Israel and show the world that

846
01:17:17.479 --> 01:17:20.680
North Carolina stands arm and on with
Israel and this time of crisis and will

847
01:17:20.680 --> 01:17:24.960
continue to stand arm and off with
him. All right, Well, there's

848
01:17:24.960 --> 01:17:28.760
about three things that come up with
this one, and I thought it was

849
01:17:28.800 --> 01:17:32.159
a little interesting. People were saying, well, it's not it's not Mark

850
01:17:32.239 --> 01:17:35.760
Robinson or for that matter, to
the State of North Carolina's place to weigh

851
01:17:35.760 --> 01:17:41.560
in on international issues, and he
shouldn't have done it. Ironically, those

852
01:17:41.640 --> 01:17:49.239
people are supporting Cooper, who literally
was absent because he was visiting another country's

853
01:17:49.920 --> 01:17:56.159
leadership and business folks there, so
you can't claim that. But two,

854
01:17:56.880 --> 01:18:01.239
they said, how dare Mark Robinson
do this because he's an anti semi and

855
01:18:01.359 --> 01:18:04.560
uh and then they go look at
his Facebook, look at look at all

856
01:18:04.600 --> 01:18:10.079
of this. How do you respond
to that because they you know, they

857
01:18:10.119 --> 01:18:14.960
have posts where you put six million
killed in quotes and I think that's their

858
01:18:15.119 --> 01:18:19.720
PATCHA. Yeah, so talk to
me about that, because that's the culdule

859
01:18:19.760 --> 01:18:24.199
they want to use it. It
was playing. The commentary we were making

860
01:18:24.279 --> 01:18:29.119
in that post was not about the
Holocaust itself, which is a historical fact

861
01:18:29.119 --> 01:18:33.479
and undeniable historical fact. We were
talking about the narrative around gun control in

862
01:18:33.600 --> 01:18:38.279
Germany and how that happened, and
that's plain in that post, and I've

863
01:18:38.319 --> 01:18:42.920
made that plane. The second post
was basically quotes from from other folks in

864
01:18:42.960 --> 01:18:46.079
the film industry that I used in
another post to talk about a movie that

865
01:18:46.199 --> 01:18:50.199
was out that that I made some
commentary on as a private citizen. It

866
01:18:50.279 --> 01:18:56.479
was I admit that that post was
poorly worded and it completely conveyed my message.

867
01:18:57.239 --> 01:19:00.119
But anti Semitic? Are you kidding
me? You want to find anti

868
01:19:00.199 --> 01:19:04.680
Semites, Let's go to the University
of Chapel Hill and find those students that

869
01:19:04.720 --> 01:19:11.000
are putting out those posters that are
in favor of murdering is rarely civilians,

870
01:19:11.720 --> 01:19:17.000
women and children at concerts who posted, who passed out flyers posting the pictures

871
01:19:17.000 --> 01:19:23.239
of the paragliders mocked up to these
paragliders of murdering these folks in Israel.

872
01:19:23.359 --> 01:19:26.560
You want to find anti Semitism,
Let's go up and talk to some of

873
01:19:26.600 --> 01:19:30.319
the members of Congress. We have
made horrendous statements against the State of Israel

874
01:19:30.359 --> 01:19:34.720
and her people. I'm not an
anti semi by any stretch of imagination,

875
01:19:35.520 --> 01:19:40.079
but I can take you and show
you a few right now that are not

876
01:19:40.159 --> 01:19:43.920
being held accountable by the press at
all. Do you think it's the job

877
01:19:44.000 --> 01:19:46.680
of a state governor to be weighing
in on those types of issues to that

878
01:19:47.479 --> 01:19:54.560
original point or do you think really
head down and you know, focus,

879
01:19:54.720 --> 01:19:59.319
focus on what immediately impacts you.
Oh, no, absolutely. This is

880
01:19:59.359 --> 01:20:02.920
the job of the the state of
US, our state leaders to stand up

881
01:20:03.039 --> 01:20:08.119
and speak up against these things that
are going on on the world stage.

882
01:20:08.199 --> 01:20:11.439
To let the folks is really,
let the people of this country, let

883
01:20:11.479 --> 01:20:15.079
the people of the world know where
we stand on this issue, and that

884
01:20:15.199 --> 01:20:19.159
we stand firmly, firmly by allies
UH in Europe and and and with the

885
01:20:19.239 --> 01:20:24.039
Jewish people there, and with the
Americans who are there and everybody who is

886
01:20:24.119 --> 01:20:28.439
under attacked by this business of terrorist
group. It of course is our job

887
01:20:28.760 --> 01:20:32.159
to stand up and speak up.
It's certainly not our job to tell people

888
01:20:32.159 --> 01:20:36.359
they can't go to church, but
it's our job to stand up and let

889
01:20:36.760 --> 01:20:42.640
folks know where we stand on crucial
issues which may end up sending our young

890
01:20:42.680 --> 01:20:45.640
men and women in the harm's way. Well, and that and that,

891
01:20:45.800 --> 01:20:48.920
and that's gonna be the that was
gonna be my How how North Carolina really

892
01:20:48.960 --> 01:20:55.439
factors into this. Not only do
we have the largest representation of veterans within

893
01:20:55.520 --> 01:21:01.279
our community, but we have a
gigantic military presence and and a large representation

894
01:21:01.399 --> 01:21:06.640
in the roughly two thousand Marines based
out of Le June who are now at

895
01:21:06.640 --> 01:21:13.239
the ready over there in Israel.
And I don't know where you stand on

896
01:21:13.279 --> 01:21:15.600
this. I hope that not a
single American boot touches the ground. I

897
01:21:15.600 --> 01:21:19.720
think we're dealing with a situation that
is somewhat unique in the fact that it's

898
01:21:19.760 --> 01:21:29.439
not Ukraine where you question their military
readiness versus Russia. Israel is clearly militarily

899
01:21:29.479 --> 01:21:36.760
from an equipment standpoint and troops standpoints
superior to Hamas. I guess where are

900
01:21:36.840 --> 01:21:43.039
you at this on this? Since
you do want a way in, well,

901
01:21:43.079 --> 01:21:46.119
you know, weighing in on the
strategy of how we handle it.

902
01:21:46.159 --> 01:21:49.760
Is one thing, weighing in on
our support for Israel's another, and my

903
01:21:49.880 --> 01:21:54.920
support for Israel lives in this.
I don't believe any of this would have

904
01:21:55.000 --> 01:21:59.159
happened if we had a president that
wasn't helping to fund Hamas from the very

905
01:21:59.199 --> 01:22:02.399
beginning, six billion dollars sent to
our ran for them to use to help

906
01:22:02.439 --> 01:22:08.520
fund these terrorists. I believe that
it would not be happening if those folks

907
01:22:08.520 --> 01:22:14.520
in Iran and the leaders of Hamas
understood that we have a president who would

908
01:22:14.560 --> 01:22:19.079
back Israel absolutely to the hilt and
allow Israel to do whatever it needs to

909
01:22:19.119 --> 01:22:25.119
do to eliminate the threat without any
type of interference or without calls will quote

910
01:22:25.159 --> 01:22:30.720
cease fires, and having allies in
our Congress that are more interested in seeing

911
01:22:30.760 --> 01:22:34.159
a mock succeed than they are the
Jewish people in Israel to survive. And

912
01:22:34.239 --> 01:22:38.880
so, while I don't know whether
or not we should send truths because I'm

913
01:22:38.880 --> 01:22:42.520
not privy to all the information that's
going on in Israel on the ground,

914
01:22:43.640 --> 01:22:46.720
I am in favor of allowing them
to do whatever is necessary and backing them

915
01:22:46.760 --> 01:22:54.079
one hundred percent of whatever is necessary
to eliminate this threat completely. You know

916
01:22:54.119 --> 01:22:57.720
what, is strange to me on
this issue is I have not seen an

917
01:22:57.720 --> 01:23:02.000
official party statement from the Democrats here
in North Carolina. You think that's a

918
01:23:02.000 --> 01:23:06.119
little weird, we're out now on
that. I don't think it's a little

919
01:23:06.119 --> 01:23:12.880
weird because, like everything else,
from defunding the police to allowing crime to

920
01:23:12.920 --> 01:23:18.840
become a revolving door where those who
could commit violent crimes and hangus crimes are

921
01:23:19.000 --> 01:23:24.760
hardly held accountable for their actions,
Democrats are soft on crime, they're salt

922
01:23:24.840 --> 01:23:29.800
on terror, and they have allies
who are let's just go ahead and say

923
01:23:29.840 --> 01:23:33.359
it. They have allies who support
criminal action and allies who support terrorism,

924
01:23:33.560 --> 01:23:36.680
and they don't want to offend those
people, so they remain silent on this

925
01:23:36.800 --> 01:23:43.680
issue. There is a lawsuit that
has been filed on the transgender issues,

926
01:23:43.760 --> 01:23:48.439
which obviously are a you had legislation, you had vetos, you had gubernatorial

927
01:23:48.520 --> 01:23:55.399
over or overrides by the General Assembly, But lawsuits filed on behalf of a

928
01:23:55.640 --> 01:24:01.520
nine year old, obviously via the
parent and whatever group is attached, basically

929
01:24:01.600 --> 01:24:10.279
suing over access to gender affirming care. These lawsuits and series of lawsuits play

930
01:24:10.439 --> 01:24:14.199
have played out all across the country. North Carolina is now dipping its toe

931
01:24:14.359 --> 01:24:18.319
is the latest into it. I
got a question, what would Mark Robinson

932
01:24:18.359 --> 01:24:23.840
say to this nine year old who
is now being put at the forefront by

933
01:24:23.880 --> 01:24:29.520
his parents over this issue. I
mean, how do you talk to kids

934
01:24:29.560 --> 01:24:32.680
about this, Mark, Because that's
what we're actually debating. I wouldn't talk

935
01:24:32.720 --> 01:24:35.439
to this child at all. It's
not my pur view to talk to the

936
01:24:35.560 --> 01:24:40.279
child. That's his parents' job to
talk to him. Now. If his

937
01:24:40.399 --> 01:24:42.319
parents want to talk to me,
that would be fine. And what I

938
01:24:42.319 --> 01:24:45.000
would tell his parents is this,
in the state of North Carolina, we're

939
01:24:45.039 --> 01:24:48.439
not going to allow you to make
this life change the decision for this child

940
01:24:48.720 --> 01:24:54.199
at this age. It is illegal. It should be illegal. We will

941
01:24:54.279 --> 01:24:57.079
not allow you to let your child
get a tattoo. We will not allow

942
01:24:57.119 --> 01:25:00.399
your child to buy a call or
a home or sign a contract at that

943
01:25:00.439 --> 01:25:03.600
age. We are not going to
allow them to change the sex at nine

944
01:25:03.640 --> 01:25:10.479
years old. It is a ridiculous
proposition to do that to a child.

945
01:25:11.000 --> 01:25:14.399
It's ridiculous, and quite frankly,
I don't even know why we're having this

946
01:25:14.479 --> 01:25:18.079
conversation. I really don't. It
is a ridiculous proposition and it is an

947
01:25:18.119 --> 01:25:21.399
absolute no go for me. And
I'll tell that to his parents. Well,

948
01:25:21.439 --> 01:25:26.000
we're having it because, as you
know, there is a ton,

949
01:25:26.199 --> 01:25:29.760
ton ton of activist money that's going
to come in and support this lawsuit.

950
01:25:29.760 --> 01:25:33.600
The child who goes by the name
Victor, obviously an alias here, is

951
01:25:33.640 --> 01:25:40.720
described as a nine year old from
Durham who is suing via the parents because

952
01:25:40.840 --> 01:25:46.880
he was not able to now access
the life the way that they were.

953
01:25:47.000 --> 01:25:53.399
The stuff in the media is incredible
to me, life saving medical care to

954
01:25:53.479 --> 01:26:00.520
help transition genders. Do you sometimes
feel like the narrative war is just been

955
01:26:00.640 --> 01:26:06.399
lost within the medical community and especially
within the media community because the way that

956
01:26:06.439 --> 01:26:12.600
they control the language surrounding this.
Absolutely, and I can tell you this

957
01:26:12.760 --> 01:26:15.479
Casey, and I say this with
full confidence. If we continue down this

958
01:26:15.640 --> 01:26:20.239
road as a nation, if we
continue to do this, God help us,

959
01:26:20.880 --> 01:26:25.399
God help us, we are going
to create an Absolutely, we're going

960
01:26:25.399 --> 01:26:30.520
to create absolute chaos in this society. When we start breaking down the basic

961
01:26:30.880 --> 01:26:36.960
tenant of science, basic science male
and female, When we start destroying that

962
01:26:38.079 --> 01:26:44.520
line because of this type of activity, we are descending into madness and chaos.

963
01:26:44.760 --> 01:26:47.720
And if we continue down this road
and don't have some grown ups to

964
01:26:47.960 --> 01:26:54.279
take the helm and stand up with
other grown ups and just say no,

965
01:26:55.199 --> 01:26:59.920
this country is going to fall into
chaos. And I would assume that would

966
01:27:00.079 --> 01:27:04.199
be long before we fall because the
nation that would allow this kind of activity

967
01:27:04.479 --> 01:27:09.800
and a permit through courts if they
do, if they do, and I

968
01:27:09.920 --> 01:27:13.479
play god that they don't, but
if they do, this nation is just

969
01:27:13.479 --> 01:27:17.560
going to continue to fall into madness. Okay, Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson joining

970
01:27:17.640 --> 01:27:23.560
us, appreciate the time there,
Sir. I don't know if you guys

971
01:27:23.560 --> 01:27:26.920
are gonna give candy out at the
Lieutenant Governor's mansion, but it sounds like

972
01:27:26.960 --> 01:27:31.680
it'll probably be not Nico Wafers in
Circus peanuts, so that's good. We'll

973
01:27:31.760 --> 01:27:35.760
talk about a wide variety because we
know everybody likes kind of everything, so

974
01:27:35.800 --> 01:27:41.239
we'll have a whive except for Jim
and Dunn, who's crazy. All right,

975
01:27:41.279 --> 01:27:44.840
we got a roll, but we'll
be right back. Hang on dental

976
01:27:50.319 --> 01:27:55.680
the show. After the show is
on the iHeart radio app. Search Casey

977
01:27:55.720 --> 01:28:02.560
Oday for the podcast on the iHeart
radio app. Yeah, well what if

978
01:28:02.640 --> 01:28:06.359
then what if the dude's into that? See, you didn't even think of

979
01:28:06.359 --> 01:28:11.640
that. Cross trying to win an
argument but not having fully thought it through.

980
01:28:12.760 --> 01:28:15.880
One of the most insane stories in
the stack today, and why the

981
01:28:15.920 --> 01:28:23.439
hell not. Here we go a
funeral homeworker whose job it is to basically

982
01:28:23.520 --> 01:28:30.079
transport dead bodies from places to said
funeral homes. So somebody dies in their

983
01:28:30.119 --> 01:28:38.199
house or whatever, they diet the
DMV while they're waiting. Then and this

984
01:28:38.359 --> 01:28:42.119
funeral home is tasked with it,
then they will go and they will retrieve

985
01:28:42.159 --> 01:28:45.720
the body and take it to the
funeral home. All right, pretty standard,

986
01:28:45.760 --> 01:28:47.119
all right, that's somebody's job,
even if you think it's a little

987
01:28:47.159 --> 01:28:54.560
weird, that's somebody's job. It's
several people's jobs out there. James Ryan

988
01:28:54.600 --> 01:29:00.239
Smith, that's his gig. He's
just going about his day. And he

989
01:29:00.279 --> 01:29:04.399
and his colleague were dispatched to a
home this is in Omaha, Nebraska,

990
01:29:06.960 --> 01:29:12.760
to collect the body of an individual
who had passed away. Just you know,

991
01:29:12.960 --> 01:29:16.920
standard nine to five, nothing,
nothing crazy, been there one hundred

992
01:29:17.000 --> 01:29:21.600
times. Except there was a little
bit of a twist as the property manager.

993
01:29:28.000 --> 01:29:34.399
Property manager let them into the property
to retrieve the body. It was

994
01:29:34.439 --> 01:29:39.840
apparent to all in the room,
well maybe not the deceased, because he's

995
01:29:39.920 --> 01:29:45.520
deceased, but that the scene was
a little weird because yeah, dude was

996
01:29:45.600 --> 01:29:54.880
dead, and on the bed.
Next to dead dude was a very very

997
01:29:55.039 --> 01:30:03.520
realistic, high end sex spot,
you know, sex doll, sex robot.

998
01:30:03.960 --> 01:30:09.600
Whatever. It was a nice one
he had, he'd saved up.

999
01:30:13.840 --> 01:30:19.960
Well. Ryan Smith took one look
at that thing, took one look look

1000
01:30:20.000 --> 01:30:27.600
over at the dude who is now
again deceased, and apparently, according to

1001
01:30:27.640 --> 01:30:33.520
authorities, he concocted a plan.
According to the property manager, Smith had

1002
01:30:33.640 --> 01:30:41.520
then informed him basically. So they
got the body and then Smith and then

1003
01:30:41.640 --> 01:30:44.119
left, and then Smith called him
and was like, oh, by the

1004
01:30:44.119 --> 01:30:51.760
way, hey, the sheriff asked
me to take the sex spot so I

1005
01:30:51.800 --> 01:30:57.840
could collect swabs for biopsy or something. I threw a little science out there.

1006
01:30:57.880 --> 01:31:00.199
He said, oh, okay,
yeah, we got to do the

1007
01:31:00.239 --> 01:31:05.680
thing with the guy, David Caruso
is gonna run it and the team and

1008
01:31:05.680 --> 01:31:09.920
they're gonna look at it. So
I'm gonna need to take the sex robot

1009
01:31:10.039 --> 01:31:16.520
and nothing to see here, and
so he did. However, the manager

1010
01:31:16.640 --> 01:31:20.119
said he was so he was a
little creeped out, and he said,

1011
01:31:20.159 --> 01:31:29.800
no, I think the manager wanted
it for himself. He said that sounds

1012
01:31:29.840 --> 01:31:34.920
nobody told me anything. About that, so you can't do that, and

1013
01:31:35.199 --> 01:31:43.800
he did not allow him access.
However, shortly thereafter, the manager returned

1014
01:31:43.800 --> 01:31:53.399
to the apartment to discover that somebody
had gained entry and lo and behold who's

1015
01:31:53.439 --> 01:31:57.840
in there? According to the manager, it's Ryan Smith, the forty one

1016
01:31:57.880 --> 01:32:05.520
year old worker at the funeral home. By the time the manager arrived,

1017
01:32:05.560 --> 01:32:12.199
Smith was attempting to exit the home
and described as quote, leaving with his

1018
01:32:12.399 --> 01:32:19.359
shirt untucked and his pants in disarray. Cops recalled. Smith later arrested on

1019
01:32:19.479 --> 01:32:32.000
felony burglary charges. A post arrest
examination revealed the sex doll to gosh,

1020
01:32:32.199 --> 01:32:46.720
how do I say this to be? It was gross, freshly, freshly

1021
01:32:47.319 --> 01:32:55.119
adorned, nasty, yeah yeah,
yeah, yeah yeah. And ironically at

1022
01:32:55.119 --> 01:33:00.239
that point, because of this,
then the law enforcement did have to see

1023
01:33:00.520 --> 01:33:09.439
said sex bot because now they did
have to process it for DNA. Okay,

1024
01:33:09.920 --> 01:33:12.920
all right, Ross, I'm not
a lawyer. You're not a lawyer,

1025
01:33:13.000 --> 01:33:15.640
right, not a lawyer? Yeah, I'm not. You're but you're

1026
01:33:15.640 --> 01:33:19.600
familiar with finders v keepers, right
I am? Yeah? Okay, dead

1027
01:33:19.680 --> 01:33:24.920
dude's not using it anymore, you
know what I mean, he's he's done

1028
01:33:24.960 --> 01:33:29.119
with it, and maybe his family
doesn't want to when they go to pack

1029
01:33:29.199 --> 01:33:31.239
up his stuff, maybe they don't
want to find that he's so in a

1030
01:33:31.279 --> 01:33:35.199
way, guys just trying to do
him a favor. Do you know what

1031
01:33:35.279 --> 01:33:40.279
I'm saying. It's like a family, you're not gonna hand that down,

1032
01:33:40.920 --> 01:33:45.000
right, So you think he's doing
it to, you know, as as

1033
01:33:45.079 --> 01:33:49.399
a favor for the guy. Well
they're twofold twofold now, because he stumbled

1034
01:33:49.399 --> 01:33:53.439
across it and he was like,
I need me some of that. Well,

1035
01:33:53.600 --> 01:33:58.479
and and what he realizes that by
re recycling, reusing, renewing,

1036
01:33:58.640 --> 01:34:02.279
he's limiting the carbon foot print that
would be required to manufacture another sex doll.

1037
01:34:02.399 --> 01:34:09.880
What if it's haunted? And the
what what by the guy who died?

1038
01:34:09.920 --> 01:34:15.359
Who's going to He's gonna haunt it, haunt his doll? Like literally,

1039
01:34:15.640 --> 01:34:18.640
isn't that the Insidious movies or what? No, it could be cursed

1040
01:34:19.960 --> 01:34:24.840
whatever that series is, it's insidious, that's what. But it's the one

1041
01:34:24.840 --> 01:34:28.279
with the couple who does the paranormal. It's adult, right, Annabelle.

1042
01:34:28.760 --> 01:34:34.439
Okay, So so you think that
there's potentially while this guy is in this

1043
01:34:34.560 --> 01:34:41.439
dude's house hooking up with the doll, the ghost of the deceased. Guy's

1044
01:34:41.520 --> 01:34:45.079
like, what are you doing?
Stop? You think that might be a

1045
01:34:45.119 --> 01:34:49.760
thing? Not exactly Okay, what
if the dude, I can't go into

1046
01:34:49.840 --> 01:34:55.319
details here. Yeah, what if
the guy's into that though? Right?

1047
01:34:56.000 --> 01:35:01.119
What if his thing is hooking up
with an inanimate object ala ghost harasses him?

1048
01:35:01.479 --> 01:35:05.680
His stories we've done where people like
police find these things and at first

1049
01:35:05.680 --> 01:35:09.600
they think it's like a body.
Yeah, they're like, oh, police

1050
01:35:09.720 --> 01:35:13.760
think they discover a body and it's
just like something that somebody threw out off

1051
01:35:13.800 --> 01:35:15.960
to the side of the road.
And we've gone over this before in the

1052
01:35:15.960 --> 01:35:21.239
show. Like the theory is the
people either upgrade or need to get rid

1053
01:35:21.319 --> 01:35:24.880
of it, and they don't want
to put it out into the trash,

1054
01:35:26.279 --> 01:35:30.479
so they just drive and they just
throw it out their car. That's it.

1055
01:35:30.239 --> 01:35:34.079
Or their relative dies, right,
the weird uncle kicked right, and

1056
01:35:34.079 --> 01:35:39.079
they go to his house to pack
it up, and you know, everyone

1057
01:35:39.239 --> 01:35:41.960
was like, ah, I'll take
the records. Oh look at this.

1058
01:35:42.079 --> 01:35:45.520
He's got a collection of coins,
and then you divvy that up. But

1059
01:35:45.640 --> 01:35:48.560
at no point do you get into
the weird sex spot, you know,

1060
01:35:48.800 --> 01:35:54.119
in the closet and people go dibbs, right, nobody does that. Nobody

1061
01:35:54.119 --> 01:35:59.000
wants that handed down. If you're
at a will reading right and they're going

1062
01:35:59.079 --> 01:36:04.560
who gets the grand Yeah yeah,
no uh uh. And to my nephew,

1063
01:36:04.720 --> 01:36:14.920
Ross, I leave annalyin what is
that? My uh my most faithful

1064
01:36:15.039 --> 01:36:18.560
companion? And then boom, that's
your and now that's that's you know,

1065
01:36:18.800 --> 01:36:23.319
that's your cross to bear. So
this guy is just trying to make that

1066
01:36:23.399 --> 01:36:27.880
not a thing for people to have
to deal with, and now he's going

1067
01:36:27.920 --> 01:36:36.199
to jail. Smith has subsequently been
fired from Mid America First Call, which,

1068
01:36:36.239 --> 01:36:42.199
according to the website, specializes in
removals, transportation and bombing, cremations

1069
01:36:42.479 --> 01:36:55.159
and shipouts and apparently uh sexpot stuff. So it's a sub subdivision there.

1070
01:36:57.199 --> 01:37:00.560
Nah. I feel like, I
feel, look, there's nobody should be

1071
01:37:00.560 --> 01:37:03.479
going to jail here and I and
I honestly believe the manager wanted it for

1072
01:37:03.560 --> 01:37:08.039
himself, right because way, if
you're the manager, why would you not

1073
01:37:08.319 --> 01:37:10.359
just be like, yeah, get
that the hell out of here, you

1074
01:37:10.439 --> 01:37:17.000
know what I'm saying, unless you
had like plans, that's my theory anyway,

1075
01:37:17.119 --> 01:37:23.640
eight forty five. Yes, that's
a story that exists in our world,

1076
01:37:24.119 --> 01:37:27.880
and you're welcome. Ray stagic.
He has stories that exist during the

1077
01:37:27.920 --> 01:37:30.600
weather. Did you hear that whole
thing? Man? I did not.

1078
01:37:30.640 --> 01:37:33.079
I only cut the tail end of
it. Oh my gosh. Basically,

1079
01:37:33.159 --> 01:37:38.000
some dude died. The funeral homeworker
went over to get the dude and the

1080
01:37:38.079 --> 01:37:41.560
dude's dead on the bed and next
to him is like a real high end

1081
01:37:41.680 --> 01:37:45.720
sex robot. Oh, and the
guy's like he makes up this story to

1082
01:37:45.760 --> 01:37:47.039
the manager. He's like, oh, yeah, the sheriff wanted me to

1083
01:37:47.119 --> 01:37:50.880
take that so we could swab it
for stuff. And the manager's like,

1084
01:37:51.159 --> 01:37:55.640
I don't think so, because I
assume the manager running and the dude broke

1085
01:37:55.720 --> 01:37:58.319
in to get with it, and
now he's you know, he's gonna go

1086
01:37:58.319 --> 01:38:00.920
to jail, and I'm like,
no, the dude's not using it anymore

1087
01:38:01.520 --> 01:38:05.239
and nobody's gonna want that. At
the will telling you it could be haunted,

1088
01:38:05.640 --> 01:38:10.920
and Ross thinks is haunted because he
thinks everything's haunted. So yeah,

1089
01:38:10.960 --> 01:38:15.239
well, but like like if you
went to your your weird uncle's will reading

1090
01:38:15.319 --> 01:38:18.159
and you found out that you get
you know, you know, you get

1091
01:38:18.239 --> 01:38:23.800
crystal right, You're not gonna be
happy about that. No, No,

1092
01:38:24.319 --> 01:38:27.680
you wanted the coin collection. This
is right, is too much? So

1093
01:38:27.920 --> 01:38:30.600
no, anyway, all right,
yeah, that's the thing. That's the

1094
01:38:30.680 --> 01:38:34.159
thing. So weather's the thing too, and it's stead is less creepy,

1095
01:38:34.279 --> 01:38:38.600
I hope. Well it's not going
to be bad at all. Beautiful fall

1096
01:38:38.640 --> 01:38:42.159
weekend coming up if I jump to
that. If you want to do some

1097
01:38:42.199 --> 01:38:46.479
fall things outside, Hey, pumpkin
picking and pumpkin patches are popular this time

1098
01:38:46.520 --> 01:38:49.319
of year. I've I've been asked, but I declined, and you know,

1099
01:38:49.560 --> 01:38:54.600
like pumpkin patches. Crystal Ross yeah, oh Crystal, Yeah, she's

1100
01:38:54.640 --> 01:38:57.399
a big fan. So you guys. Yeah, So I got the old

1101
01:38:57.640 --> 01:39:00.159
We're not going to have any pumpkins
this year. I was like, really,

1102
01:39:00.520 --> 01:39:03.079
it looks like, well, you
know, the kids are we've got

1103
01:39:03.119 --> 01:39:09.039
interested in easy man. Well,
I've got a feeling. I've got a

1104
01:39:09.039 --> 01:39:12.640
feeling I'm not gonna get off that
easy. But anyway, should be great

1105
01:39:12.680 --> 01:39:15.640
for it. A little cloud around
Starter rode away. We'll get some sun

1106
01:39:15.680 --> 01:39:19.079
as we go through this morning into
the afternoon, probably not mostly Sunday,

1107
01:39:19.159 --> 01:39:25.239
especially triangle to the west seem more
clearing right around seventy degrees either side of

1108
01:39:25.279 --> 01:39:29.520
that in the forties tonight near seventy
and sunny for tomorrow, and then it'll

1109
01:39:29.520 --> 01:39:32.000
go downhill a little bit Friday afternoon
and evening, could affect Friday night football

1110
01:39:32.479 --> 01:39:36.199
and Saturday there'll be some showers around, maybe a thunderstorm as we go on

1111
01:39:36.359 --> 01:39:40.880
through the early morning hours, maybe
even before sunrise. But then it should

1112
01:39:40.880 --> 01:39:44.520
be gone and we'll clear it out
and have a beautiful weekend up sixties and

1113
01:39:44.640 --> 01:39:46.720
upper forties, low fifties at night
and then a little cooler by Monday morning.

1114
01:39:47.079 --> 01:39:49.439
But early next week looks good to
You're gonna have a big ridge and

1115
01:39:49.479 --> 01:39:56.720
we met at sea rain again until
potentially maybe next weekend, after we get

1116
01:39:56.720 --> 01:40:00.359
these rain showers Friday and Friday night. So the message really dry and let's

1117
01:40:00.359 --> 01:40:05.359
say seasonably cool nowhere extremes coming in. Mostly we'll see dry weather over the

1118
01:40:05.399 --> 01:40:09.760
next few days. Okay, all
right, thank you sir, appreciate it.

1119
01:40:09.800 --> 01:40:13.680
Okay, you tomorrow and we'll come
back, Joan Donagher. Next,

1120
01:40:13.720 --> 01:40:27.319
hang on, thank you. Casey
is on ninety four to five WPTI in

1121
01:40:27.359 --> 01:40:31.039
the Triad and one six one FM
Talk in the Triangle. All right,

1122
01:40:31.159 --> 01:40:36.720
fifty three Bloomberg update. Now,
Joan Donagher, what's happening? Well?

1123
01:40:36.760 --> 01:40:42.119
A subscription fee to use the social
network formerly known as Twitter. Elon Musk

1124
01:40:42.399 --> 01:40:45.680
is testing that idea in New Zealand
and the Philippines starting today. The subscription

1125
01:40:45.760 --> 01:40:49.079
fee isn't much. It amounts to
a dollar a year for accounts that want

1126
01:40:49.079 --> 01:40:53.239
to post and interact with others.
That means if you don't pay, you

1127
01:40:53.279 --> 01:40:56.960
won't be able to use, like
or bookmark a post. Open Ai is

1128
01:40:57.000 --> 01:41:00.399
building a way to detect images created
by artificial intelligen Since the company says it's

1129
01:41:00.479 --> 01:41:04.239
ninety nine percent reliable, the need
for that kind of tool growings, and

1130
01:41:04.279 --> 01:41:09.119
say I can be used to manipulate
or just plane makeup news reports of global

1131
01:41:09.119 --> 01:41:13.560
events. All the airlines figured they
would be flying high now post pandemic,

1132
01:41:13.600 --> 01:41:17.960
but United sees its fourth quarter profit
falling short of estimates. The suspension of

1133
01:41:18.000 --> 01:41:21.399
flights to Tel Aviv will really hurt. It has the most service to Tel

1134
01:41:21.399 --> 01:41:26.319
Aviv among the US based airlines.
It's not the only issue, though higher

1135
01:41:26.399 --> 01:41:30.399
jet fuel costs are eating into its
profits as well. Things are getting better

1136
01:41:30.439 --> 01:41:32.640
for Adidas. It expects a much
lower loss than anticipate it this year.

1137
01:41:32.920 --> 01:41:36.760
Originally after it broke off all its
ties to Ya you know, Kanye West,

1138
01:41:38.079 --> 01:41:41.960
following his anti Semitic comments, Adidas
had warned it might post about a

1139
01:41:41.960 --> 01:41:45.079
three quarters of a billion dollar loss
if it had to write off all the

1140
01:41:45.119 --> 01:41:48.960
inventory from Ya's Easy brand. Instead, it's alled It's Easy inventory and could

1141
01:41:48.960 --> 01:41:53.560
see a boost from selling more of
it during the holidays. And the Federal

1142
01:41:53.600 --> 01:41:58.079
Reserve is getting ready to drop a
plan to lower the fees stores pay to

1143
01:41:58.279 --> 01:42:01.520
banks when we use debit cards.
The Wall Street Journal says it could happen

1144
01:42:01.520 --> 01:42:05.800
as early as next week. And
finally, Casey bosses are getting impatient with

1145
01:42:05.880 --> 01:42:10.840
people taking sick days. The Wall
Street Journal says payroll data shows the number

1146
01:42:10.920 --> 01:42:14.920
of sick days we take each year
has shot up since the pandemic. Employees

1147
01:42:14.960 --> 01:42:18.000
between the ages of twenty five and
thirty four are taking sick days most often.

1148
01:42:18.279 --> 01:42:23.239
Stilantis has made it part of its
bargaining with the United Autoworkers Union.

1149
01:42:23.840 --> 01:42:27.960
Really that age I could ross and
I did the math, we could be

1150
01:42:28.000 --> 01:42:31.920
gone for like months which have so
many sick days? Rolling over he quick

1151
01:42:32.000 --> 01:42:35.119
question every year they go what's the
worst? How wing candy? And usually

1152
01:42:35.199 --> 01:42:41.640
candy corn wins this year somehow laughy
taffy one. How do we feel about

1153
01:42:41.680 --> 01:42:46.039
taffy. You like laffy taffy taffy. I'm good with that candy corn I

1154
01:42:46.039 --> 01:42:49.479
hate, but laughy taffy, even
the banana laughy taffy, which is a

1155
01:42:49.520 --> 01:42:53.359
thing. Okay, that's gross,
that's gross. All right, all right,

1156
01:42:53.399 --> 01:42:56.119
fair enough, all right, Joan, thank you appreciate it. Talk

1157
01:42:56.880 --> 01:43:02.600
yep, so Joan likes laughy taffy. See there are people like it.

1158
01:43:02.680 --> 01:43:06.640
I don't really solve whether it's a
Halloween candy. Oh wait, people are

1159
01:43:06.640 --> 01:43:11.720
sending me emails. Oh. I
would never take a relative thing like doctor

1160
01:43:11.720 --> 01:43:15.279
should have given it. You know
what, sir, you might have inherited

1161
01:43:15.319 --> 01:43:18.359
something that one of your relatives absolutely
hooked up with. Did you ever think

1162
01:43:18.399 --> 01:43:25.840
of that? That thought ever cross
your mind? Right, got your uncle

1163
01:43:25.920 --> 01:43:30.840
Jim's toaster or pillow or couch or
something. What do you think happened on

1164
01:43:30.920 --> 01:43:32.600
that? Dude? We used to
have a couch at one of the radio

1165
01:43:32.640 --> 01:43:36.039
stations I worked at that I wouldn't
sit on because I knew that one of

1166
01:43:36.079 --> 01:43:41.920
the morning shows did a bit where
they had really really really really obese people

1167
01:43:42.000 --> 01:43:45.199
come in and hook up on it. Ross. You know the couch I'm

1168
01:43:45.239 --> 01:43:48.960
referring to, don't I sure do. Yeah, you do. Right,

1169
01:43:49.279 --> 01:43:54.560
So if you inherited anything from any
relative, you don't know what happened on

1170
01:43:54.680 --> 01:44:01.760
there. That may well be their
companion. And now it's in your man

1171
01:44:01.840 --> 01:44:04.760
case. Definitely not. My dad's
a bean bag chair from Saigon? Right,

1172
01:44:05.039 --> 01:44:10.119
what it's good? It shoots ping
pong balls? Right, Yes,

1173
01:44:10.239 --> 01:44:15.399
that's amazing. Who does that except
that chair? All right? Real quick,

1174
01:44:15.479 --> 01:44:19.079
Chris, what's up, Casey?
This is a pretty good subject.

1175
01:44:19.399 --> 01:44:23.239
Maybe that he was just trying to
find a new way to embalm it,

1176
01:44:23.439 --> 01:44:27.479
or maybe it's a procedure for embalming
sex dolls. I don't know, sir.

1177
01:44:27.600 --> 01:44:30.560
I just know that when its head
starts spinning around, it's either a

1178
01:44:30.600 --> 01:44:40.600
mechanical malfunction or you know, satan. So there's that that theory. Jason,

1179
01:44:40.640 --> 01:44:45.359
real quick, what's up? But
I got a question. Has anyone

1180
01:44:45.439 --> 01:44:48.960
thought that maybe that they guys prsted
