WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.040 Cacoday radio program and I was Ross and Evers chatting off the air, a 2 00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:10.560 few things going on. We got lots of audio today, but I would 3 00:00:10.599 --> 00:00:16.440 be remiss because, once again, for the up umpteenth time, I'm sitting 4 00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:20.519 there and I'm just trying to scroll through the social media, mostly because I 5 00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:28.760 want to see what what insane thing is going on on the college campuses yesterday 6 00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:32.039 so I can put it in the old show prep and boy, oh boy, 7 00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:40.399 let me tell you this. The answer to that one is lots okay. 8 00:00:40.439 --> 00:00:43.560 And here, let me just give you a little taste. I don't 9 00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:48.079 even I won't even Maybe you're gonna context where this is from. Just know 10 00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:53.479 and I'll explain here coming up. But just know that this is a college 11 00:00:53.479 --> 00:00:58.280 student on a college campus, at least he purports to be, who is 12 00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:03.840 in the midst of getting a arrested by police because the whole thing had gone 13 00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:07.680 sideways, had been told to leave, some fights had broke, all right, 14 00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:11.840 so it's it's just pandemonium and uh, this this is what he's yelling. 15 00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:22.040 Uh, there's lots of bleeps. I warn you, what are you 16 00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:32.319 doing? Learn? I gotta learn about public health? I mean snatching that 17 00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:37.239 dude, ride out of class like that. I'm assuming, Kim, what's 18 00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:38.920 the one everyone hates who wants to be a doctor and then after they do 19 00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:42.680 it, they don't want to be a doctor. It's it's uh, I 20 00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:46.719 can't remember what it is, but that's the class, right Ross you dubbed 21 00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:49.079 it in He was sitting in his chair taking notes, right, and they 22 00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:53.000 pulled him out of there, screaming, yeah, yeah, he's just he's 23 00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:55.519 just Look he's just in here's got a pen and a notepath, just trying 24 00:01:55.519 --> 00:02:00.840 to learn, man or he's outside surrounded by the unwashed masses. Which, 25 00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:05.840 by the way, I'm I didn't major in public health, so I'm a 26 00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:09.159 I'm a little member. I I did the poetry through Marxist lens. Once 27 00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:12.319 I heard about that, I was like, yes, sign me up. 28 00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:16.719 But you know, you guys are all like grubby living in the quad in 29 00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:23.599 like tents, and I know you get your masks on, but let's let's 30 00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:25.560 let's be honest. Those are really only when you when you suspect there's a 31 00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:30.719 camera around or you're out harassing somebody. So uh, anyway, so I'm 32 00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:36.120 just thumbing through there and for like the the last I don't know how long 33 00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:39.520 this has been going on. Every single time I'm there, I there's one 34 00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:45.759 of two things that I see that is annoying. The the tweets saying look 35 00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:53.280 between letters, that's dumb, it's and now's the point where people are annoyed 36 00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:57.240 by it. So then others do it just a troll, which if it 37 00:02:57.319 --> 00:03:00.560 had just been trolling to start with, maybe, but some people we're serious 38 00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:05.120 about it. And two and I feel like right off to talk about this 39 00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:09.400 the man versus bear thing, and not in the cool like the world's Strongest 40 00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:15.120 Man spencing sponson Magsisin or you know whoever it is is going to fight a 41 00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:19.400 bear. Sign me up for that to watch. Of course, I don't 42 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:21.879 want to be on like the undercart or anything. No, no, no, 43 00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:28.479 If you haven't, it's like this, it's like the worst thought exercise 44 00:03:28.800 --> 00:03:35.879 and most disingenuous responses to prove a point that I think I've seen in quite 45 00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:37.960 some time. And if you don't know what it is, here's how it 46 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:42.120 works. And it's for you ladies, and I guess those who identify as 47 00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:46.479 ladies, because this sounds like wet garbage. And the challenge is you ask 48 00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:55.039 women if you were out in the woods, you're hiking the trail and you 49 00:03:55.120 --> 00:04:01.000 wander into a clearing, knowing that you're miles from civilization, and they're standing 50 00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:10.599 right in front of you. Is either a man you don't know or a 51 00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:19.480 bear, which would you rather encounter in this wilderness situation? And almost exclusively 52 00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:27.160 when they put together these answers, it's these it's some really angry looking chick 53 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:38.079 on TikTok or some preachy social justice ultimate feminist lady, and she's sitting there 54 00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:43.879 and without hesitation, she's like the bear. Okay, okay, by the 55 00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:46.279 way, I just gonna let you go. I've been in these situations. 56 00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:48.079 But again, this is supposed to be for women. I've literally in both 57 00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:57.199 those situations, been really really into the wilderness and encountered those things. I'll 58 00:04:57.199 --> 00:05:00.759 tell you, and let me tell you this. It's far. I will 59 00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:04.680 agree if you think you're nowhere near anybody and you see them, but it's 60 00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:10.199 not out of the question, right, I've been miles back. I've been 61 00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:14.600 miles and miles back. Like we walked almost for a day to get back 62 00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:23.160 somewhere because my buddy had he drew a mountain mountain goat tag, and so 63 00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:26.399 we went way way back there and we ran into it, dude, and 64 00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:31.800 I admit I was surprised, mostly because like it's you have you had to 65 00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:34.120 know how far back it is. But I've also run into a bear, 66 00:05:34.920 --> 00:05:39.639 right, and both of which, you know, the bear was obviously less 67 00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:45.879 surprising in the sense that you kind of you're ready for that. But here's 68 00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:48.279 the problem with this. And I wasn't murdered by either, just so we're 69 00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:54.720 clear, here's the problem with this, because the it's it's this whole thought 70 00:05:54.800 --> 00:06:00.040 exercise that's dumb, but is predicated in I think the people's minds who put 71 00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:06.399 it out there that they're raising awareness about, you know, toxic masculinity and 72 00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:13.959 how horrible men are. And so they'll say, well, well i'll take 73 00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:17.959 I'll take the bear. I'll take the bear. And then the stat that 74 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:23.040 they spew is, you know, on average women, blah blah blah face 75 00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:27.360 this, so you know they're they're And then they'll say they're far more likely 76 00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:34.480 during their lifetime to be injured by a man than a bear, which do 77 00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:41.360 you know why that's probably true? I think, and I haven't run the 78 00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:45.000 science on this. I think that if you were to ask most women how 79 00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:50.600 many random encounters with strange men they may have right where you're like in a 80 00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:53.959 parking garage. I'm trying to take a scenario, so you're not quite in 81 00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:57.000 the wilderness, like you're in a parking garage and there's there's just some dude 82 00:06:57.040 --> 00:07:00.519 kind of hanging out in there. Which, by the way, even if 83 00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:02.480 you're a guy and some dudes just hanging out in there looking like like he's 84 00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:05.519 not going to his car, your situational awareness should be up. But I 85 00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:14.079 think on average, the average American woman is presented on an annual basis with 86 00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:24.199 I don't know, zero bar encounters. Zero I believe would probably again you 87 00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:26.759 have to take me out my word here, but I think on average, 88 00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:34.360 not the average American woman has zero rando bar encounters, whereas she will likely 89 00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:39.720 encounter men that she doesn't know. Even in those scenarios, even if she's 90 00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:43.600 just in a store, right and the clerk is a dude and she's by 91 00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.240 herself. I mean, I guess that kind of ticks the box, right. 92 00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:54.000 It's the dumbest thing ever, and it's inaccurate. And I think, 93 00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:59.519 and maybe what we need we need more bears. We need because then and 94 00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:03.680 only then can we do this. And also what kind of bear? That's 95 00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:05.800 right, I know it's Monday morning, we're doing some we're doing some animal 96 00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:11.240 biology stuff. What kind of bear? Because if you ask me what kind 97 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:16.439 of bear, and I knew geographically where we were, I could pick a 98 00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:20.920 bear that I'd prefer to encounter. You get out in the rocky mountains, 99 00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.319 give me a black bear all day. For the most part, they don't 100 00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:26.120 grow as big, not as big as the ones up in the northeast, 101 00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:31.079 much smaller. And chances are if you just if you're noisy enough and there's 102 00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:33.960 not cubs around, they're out of there. Don't give me a brown bear, 103 00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:37.759 though, Don't give me a grizzly Nope, nope, nope, nope. 104 00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:43.279 So like the whole thing is dumb, but it, for whatever reason 105 00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:46.960 that and the key thing or the key thing, the key is on the 106 00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:52.600 keyboard thing persists, and I have I have no idea why. Mostly I 107 00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:54.600 think just to annoy me. All right, eight eight eight nine three four 108 00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:58.960 seven eight seven four coming up, we got awards that we're gonna have. 109 00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:03.919 Now, we got more insanity on college campuses, because of course we do. 110 00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:09.399 I guess graduations over the weekend. Most of them went smooth, some 111 00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:15.679 of them didn't. And one local community I guess is trying to outcompete Kerry 112 00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:22.399 for most dangerous city of North Carolina. I'm half joking, although I am 113 00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:26.879 a little surprised by this story. So lots to get to six seventeen. 114 00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:35.840 Hang on, we have a little conspiracy to sported, and I need to 115 00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:41.720 know what team you're on. So did you all see this? Really it's 116 00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:50.279 not a very long video. It's not a long video, but it's you 117 00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:54.200 don't need to be the body language person that like O'Reilly used to have on 118 00:09:54.279 --> 00:10:00.519 to really deep dive of what might be going on here. But it's it's 119 00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:03.559 just Biden, you know, moving. I guess he's probably moving to or 120 00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:11.559 from Marine one, and it's that standard. Here's every reporter in the press 121 00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:16.440 pool screaming at him from about twenty feet away, simultaneous questions, and he 122 00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:20.159 stops, which is not unusual because then sometimes he'll answer some of these, 123 00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:26.639 much to his staff's dismay. But he stops, and he he gets this 124 00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:31.159 really weird look on his face, and he because there's the gait of him 125 00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:35.039 moving, but there's also the way he stops and almost kind of I don't 126 00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:39.360 know how to scre like pushes out like a little bit his lower back. 127 00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:48.279 Well, and this is what he's hearing, by the way, all right, 128 00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:56.840 so that's not impress You have to see the video. Do you think 129 00:10:56.000 --> 00:11:01.120 was he just stopping to listen or perhaps with something else going on here? 130 00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:07.440 That's the question, because uh, people got jokes, people got theories, 131 00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:15.440 and you know, if if you're cognizant enough of how do I how do 132 00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:22.120 I do this delicately? You ever been in a position where you're on the 133 00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:31.039 fence as to whether that's just gas, so you take a much more measured 134 00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:41.600 approach because you just you don't trust. But that's all it is. It 135 00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:52.159 kind of looks like that or or uh, you know, he did the 136 00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:54.759 pope thing again. I don't know. You can be the judge of it, 137 00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:00.519 because it could be it could be just it was an awkward, kind 138 00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:03.840 of weird series of stops and body movements. It could be he was just 139 00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.759 uh, you know, trust but verify and things did work out. But 140 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.919 still you kind of kind of the way your body is ready for it, 141 00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:18.879 you can see that, or you know, the worst happened, So I 142 00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:24.320 guess those are the those are the three options. I kind of feel like 143 00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:28.480 I'm in I'm right in between number two and number three, which, by 144 00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:31.159 the way, that's that's funny. Actually it's a it's an unintended pun, 145 00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:39.840 but something's going on there. Well, we'll tweet out a link to the 146 00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:41.960 video. You could check it out. Ross one, two or three? 147 00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:45.399 Where's your where are you at? You think? You just think it's just 148 00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:48.000 a weird kind of gait thing and he just paused and Okay, Like again, 149 00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:52.320 I'm not convinced on any of this, but it just was weird because 150 00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:58.080 then I'm thinking about all the contortions when what may make when in that situation. 151 00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:03.679 So I don't know. Man. In fact, I was chat Ross 152 00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:05.080 and or chatting about it off there. He did not see it. So, 153 00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:13.000 but no doubt you saw some of the the highlights or lowlights I did 154 00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:16.559 see. I did see that. I was confirmed. Some people shouldn't be 155 00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:24.480 roasted. Okay, some people shouldn't be roasted because they there their ego can't 156 00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:28.120 take it. And I'm convinced Tom Brady was that. I give him a 157 00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:33.639 lot of grief, but mostly it's just because like harassing you know, Patriots 158 00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:39.080 fans in the uh you know, in the rivalry sense. But like I 159 00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:43.000 thought he probably could. But when I saw that interaction with Jeff Ross, 160 00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:46.320 Look, Jeff Ross, if you're gonna do one of these roasts, Jeff 161 00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:50.120 Ross is going to be there. He is if you think, if you 162 00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:56.320 think of ros Jeff Ross is the king of the roast currently, yeah, 163 00:13:56.360 --> 00:14:00.480 because the rest of them are dead. Yeah. Yeah, But and you 164 00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:03.320 know, you go back obviously the sixties in the in the excuse me, 165 00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:07.919 the late sixties into the seventies seventies is really the heyday right of the roast. 166 00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:13.559 You go back and you see the old you know, Sammy Davis is 167 00:14:13.639 --> 00:14:16.600 there, Sinatra by making appearance. It's just but yeah, but with the 168 00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:20.159 newer ones, because they're really big in the two thousands, like there are 169 00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:22.440 two thousands, Trump sat for one. I mean, my god, man, 170 00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:26.919 Greg Giraldo is dead, Nor McDonald is dead, right, who's the 171 00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:30.799 other one? Kilbert Godfried is dead. It's like Jeff Ross is the only 172 00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:33.159 one left. And that now and that lady who just talks about how many 173 00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:37.240 like Lisa Lampanelli, right, like her whole stick is that although she's funny, 174 00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:39.799 she makes funny jokes. I'll give her. I'll give her credit. 175 00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:48.080 And I actually I enjoy the roast thing. I enjoy that. I that, 176 00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:54.799 but I like I like comedy and but I also like specific nit niches 177 00:14:54.840 --> 00:15:00.080 of it and and that's that's fun. I usually enjoy those. And how 178 00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:03.679 many centrals put out some good ones. Like I said, watching the Trump 179 00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:07.000 one after he was inaugurated was kind of surreal because it took place obviously years 180 00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:11.440 before. But like, this is something crazy about the dude who's just you 181 00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:15.879 know, getting you know, getting the curtains picked out at the White House, 182 00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:20.360 is just sitting there taking crap from Lisa Lampinelli. I don't know. 183 00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:24.279 There's something pretty crazy about that to me. But so I watched the Brady 184 00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:30.519 thing and I thought it was gonna be fine. And then ro Jeff Ross 185 00:15:30.519 --> 00:15:37.080 made a joke about not Tom Brady, but our Robert Kraft, and it 186 00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:41.039 was a joke about the massage. Well it was about Tom Brady too. 187 00:15:41.080 --> 00:15:45.080 He said something along the lines of, you know Tom was selected, you 188 00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:48.600 know, number one ninety nine. He gets up there, walks into Robert 189 00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:52.279 Craft's office. Thank you for thank you, sir, thank you very much 190 00:15:54.679 --> 00:15:58.720 for selecting me. I really appreciate it. Would you like a massage? 191 00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:06.240 And Brady got up and went over to Ross and told him, don't say 192 00:16:06.320 --> 00:16:11.919 that blank again. And in a in a roast, that reaction from the 193 00:16:12.039 --> 00:16:18.879 roast the person being roasted is usually mostly done for comedic purposes, right, 194 00:16:18.240 --> 00:16:26.879 but this felt very will Smithy Will Smith Chris Rocky and uh yeah yeah. 195 00:16:26.919 --> 00:16:30.799 And then he was like he was motionless during all the gizelle stuff, which 196 00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:34.799 I guess I kind of get, but I don't know. Man. You 197 00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:38.559 if you know Jeff Ross is gonna be there, He's going to make jokes. 198 00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:42.320 And and by the way, in those roasts, there usually are some 199 00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:51.440 parameters about he could get uh like uh with with Trump, the parameters were 200 00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:55.200 I believe somebody said that the parameters were that he agreed to the roast, 201 00:16:55.720 --> 00:17:03.119 but they couldn't joke about his wife ex wife or minor children. Now you 202 00:17:03.160 --> 00:17:07.079 talk, they talk about it, but they couldn't make jokes. And somebody 203 00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:08.400 did kind of make a joke, but it wasn't really at their expense, 204 00:17:08.960 --> 00:17:11.720 you know, And I you know, I guess I get that because they're 205 00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:15.640 not up there to defend themselves. But yeah, it was really awkward. 206 00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:22.759 So and I was surprised. I figured it, Come on, man Craft 207 00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:26.559 is sitting there by the way too, So it's it's it's clearly even though 208 00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:30.039 Brady's part of the joke, it's clearly a joke at Robert Craft's expense. 209 00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:37.000 But no, he was not having that, not having that at all. 210 00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:41.000 All right, But maybe you think I miss reading it, mister Boston Paul, 211 00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:42.359 because you're the one who sent it to me. But yeah, also 212 00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:48.839 I don't think Rady much like Kevin Hart's jokes, and Heart was Heart was 213 00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:56.079 the the roastmaster. So yeah, the whole thing was kind of awkward, 214 00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:57.799 and I generally like that, but I don't know, I was half paying 215 00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:03.720 attention. I just gotten prep stuff done. So anyway, all right, 216 00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:06.359 let's uh, let's let's go ahead and get into this, because we got 217 00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:07.799 to We got a crap ton of audio and different stuff we got to get 218 00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:12.680 through. So yeah, as when we last left, a bunch of about 219 00:18:12.680 --> 00:18:21.519 a seventy five or so protesters decided to interrupt the University of Michigan's graduation ceremony, 220 00:18:21.640 --> 00:18:25.920 you know, to get turn people to their side, and uh, 221 00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:30.640 it really it really sputtered out, although it did halt it for a while. 222 00:18:32.640 --> 00:18:36.319 And ironically, I think if you're the if you're the Michigan governor, 223 00:18:36.359 --> 00:18:41.799 Whitmer right, and uh, you know, part of your hobbies are destroying 224 00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:45.680 kids graduation ceremonies. You had to respect the speed at which they brought it. 225 00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:48.640 You didn't have to hold a bunch of press conferences and rope off seeds 226 00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:52.640 like they smashed that. Uh, they didn't quite do it all the way, 227 00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:57.480 but in impressive run. Unfortunately, all the people who had just spent 228 00:18:57.559 --> 00:19:03.000 a gazillion dollars on their kids to go there traveled however far they had to 229 00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:07.599 travel, assembled in this stadium with you know, the horde of other people. 230 00:19:08.839 --> 00:19:12.079 They weren't having any of it. And really the exciting part for the 231 00:19:12.119 --> 00:19:22.960 crowd was when they started hooking them up and dragging them out, or they 232 00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:26.359 told them that people being dragged out were Buckeye fans, so you'd get the 233 00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:33.359 same reaction. So yeah, Meanwhile, around these parts we did run into 234 00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:37.200 that, not to that extent. And I got to be honest, one 235 00:19:37.240 --> 00:19:41.839 of the big concerns out there was exactly this. You know, what's going 236 00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:45.960 to happen these graduation ceremonies. Remember several schools USC I think kind of the 237 00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:51.039 highest profile one canceling there, just straight up canceling it. And that's when 238 00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:55.880 all the stories started to emerge about how no graduation once again for you, 239 00:19:57.519 --> 00:20:02.720 and they started they interviewed this one lady, this one, this one woman 240 00:20:02.759 --> 00:20:06.720 who was, you know, bemoaning. I think she went to high school 241 00:20:06.759 --> 00:20:11.160 in California too. But just like I can feel for that, I can 242 00:20:11.279 --> 00:20:15.160 understand that. Now, I didn't go to my own graduation for even high 243 00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:22.279 school, so I literally I never never attended graduation either, but that was 244 00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:26.240 my choice. I left, I graduated semester, I left. I just 245 00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:30.599 didn't bother coming back because I really didn't care. But yeah, yeah, 246 00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:33.960 if you really want that thing, I understand why she's upset. So the 247 00:20:33.039 --> 00:20:37.200 last thing you want is a bunch of moonbats to sending on you on your 248 00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:41.240 ceremony. So I got to think that there is it's a lot easier to 249 00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:47.039 control access to a ticketed event inside of a stadium that has security settings to 250 00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:52.839 control access, But some universities aren't going to be that lucky, and so 251 00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:56.599 we will be following this as many many folks are going to be graduating over 252 00:20:56.640 --> 00:21:00.599 the next about week week and a half, all right, eight eight eight 253 00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:03.599 nine three four seven eight seven four. Unfortunately, though, if you go 254 00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:10.200 to Arizona State University and you were part of the illegal occupation that culminated with 255 00:21:10.319 --> 00:21:15.000 the frat bros throwing everybody's stuff in a truck to haul it away, remember 256 00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:22.039 that audio from last week. Reality set in. Reality has set in for 257 00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:26.960 some of the students, including this young lady. I mean, I'm a 258 00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:36.519 little disappointed. I I I'm being restricted from a lot of things right now 259 00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:41.480 that I that I didn't expect to be firstanding up for something that I believe 260 00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:48.079 in, and you know I have I know you can kind of hear it, 261 00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:52.920 but just to emphasize, she is in tears. She is in tears 262 00:21:52.000 --> 00:22:00.960 being interviewed because she's been told, hey, actions have consequences, you know, 263 00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.039 and by the way, the very same consequences that at the time you 264 00:22:03.079 --> 00:22:08.079 did the thing we told you would be the consequences were in fact the consequences, 265 00:22:08.599 --> 00:22:11.839 and she can't handle it. I have family coming in who I have 266 00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:17.039 to let them know, you know, not come to my graduation ceremonies. 267 00:22:17.359 --> 00:22:21.920 By the way, do you know who doesn't have family coming in. A 268 00:22:21.960 --> 00:22:30.279 lot of Jewish students in different parts of the world, Israel kind of spot 269 00:22:30.319 --> 00:22:37.000 there. They probably have family missing during this graduation season, so as by 270 00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:44.359 the way, as well as probably some of the Palestinian students, So you 271 00:22:44.400 --> 00:22:48.119 know, something to think about. Anyway, I'm sorry, back to whatever 272 00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:56.880 this blubbering interview is. I am glad that there is a guarantee that my 273 00:22:56.920 --> 00:23:02.400 courses will be taken care of, so I don't have to worry necessarily about 274 00:23:03.359 --> 00:23:12.119 about my graduation requirements and the fact that I will earn my degree as I 275 00:23:12.119 --> 00:23:19.680 as I have spent the past four years doing. But I'm just disappointed. 276 00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:25.519 I mean, I'm a twenty twenty high school grad so I wasn't able to 277 00:23:25.559 --> 00:23:33.799 walk then, and so okay, I'm not able to walk now. Yeah, 278 00:23:34.480 --> 00:23:45.359 accept accept The first thing, admittedly wasn't your fault, right, That 279 00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:49.640 was whoever you're I don't know where she grew up, but that was lawmakers 280 00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.279 she made that decision and school officials and all that. So I actually feel 281 00:23:53.279 --> 00:23:56.039 bad for you about that, especially with everything that we know. Now that 282 00:23:56.200 --> 00:24:00.559 being said, this is this is all you hear, and now you're an 283 00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:03.480 adult before. Not only was it not your fault, you were also a 284 00:24:03.559 --> 00:24:10.039 kid. By the way, her name is Brianna Brocker. She will not 285 00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:15.599 be uh not be attending her physical graduation there, and she just can't be. 286 00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:18.559 I was doing what I believed was right, and I still believe it 287 00:24:18.599 --> 00:24:22.079 to be right. Then why Okay, let me ask you a question. 288 00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:27.960 If you do, then why are you crying? If you because again they 289 00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:30.839 didn't hide that this is going to be the consequence. So if you still 290 00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:34.920 think that you were right, you should be incensed. You shouldn't be crying. 291 00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:40.119 You should be angry. That's what I would expect. But then you 292 00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:42.799 would also have to justify you know, why you're right. So if you 293 00:24:42.799 --> 00:24:45.359 think you did what you did was right, you shouldn't be crying. I 294 00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:49.480 would. I would stand up for the cause again, even if it means 295 00:24:49.880 --> 00:24:59.039 something negative to me, because, like the cause is so much harm has 296 00:24:59.079 --> 00:25:06.519 been done to to all of those people already. I am safe. I 297 00:25:06.559 --> 00:25:11.079 am I am fine. I might not graduate and that might harm future job 298 00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:15.079 prospects and stuff like that, but I'm not not as much. I'm not 299 00:25:15.160 --> 00:25:22.519 like in physical danger. I'm not I'm not constantly worried about being hurt or 300 00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:30.759 being forced from my home or anything like that. I would absolutely stand up 301 00:25:30.039 --> 00:25:36.799 again and protest again. Okay, I you know what I uh, let 302 00:25:36.799 --> 00:25:38.279 me say this. I don't know you, but I don't believe you. 303 00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:42.240 I think that And here's here's what I mean. I think that this, 304 00:25:42.880 --> 00:25:52.880 the consequences here might be factored in next time because you she seems really upset 305 00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:56.200 about this, even though it was one hundred percent predictable because you were told 306 00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:03.920 like this might be the most learning from uh, from your university experience that 307 00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:08.599 she does. Maybe I don't know, I hold out hope on this stuff, 308 00:26:08.920 --> 00:26:15.759 but like I would, I would think I would think that maybe if 309 00:26:17.000 --> 00:26:19.559 if this really does cause a big wound, you might be more measured in 310 00:26:19.599 --> 00:26:22.119 it. It doesn't mean you can't stand up for stuff, but it's the 311 00:26:22.160 --> 00:26:26.279 way that you go about it, because that's that's what the debate here is. 312 00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:32.240 Nobody's debating whether you can, you know, walk around and hate Israel 313 00:26:32.599 --> 00:26:36.519 or love this or or detest that or whatever it is, and make your 314 00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:41.759 voices hurt. In Chapel Hill yesterday, the student group that organized the initial 315 00:26:41.839 --> 00:26:45.880 rally, which was then excommunicated from campus. They decided they were going to 316 00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:51.640 go uh slow walk Franklin Street and you know, and that was there. 317 00:26:51.759 --> 00:26:55.319 That was their form of protest. Now, I don't know they broke like 318 00:26:55.440 --> 00:27:00.319 jaywalking laws or exactly how it works there in Chapel Hill. That being said, 319 00:27:00.000 --> 00:27:06.480 uh, it doesn't appear anybody did anything illegal. Maybe just annoying if 320 00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:11.279 some people were wanting to get through there. So you know that nobody's got 321 00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:14.279 a beef with well, they don't have a criminal beef with that. They 322 00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:22.240 may think you're dumb and you're wrong, but ultimately we're missing that step where 323 00:27:22.279 --> 00:27:25.799 she's addressing the cause, but not the way that the cause was promoted. 324 00:27:25.839 --> 00:27:27.680 I know you guys know this, but it's Monday and some people are very 325 00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:41.240 sleepy. So um yeah, dude, I saw the the the frat boy 326 00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:45.079 summer thing. I think is stuck. Right. If you've seen that, 327 00:27:45.200 --> 00:27:47.880 and if you haven't heard that, I think you're you're gonna get sick of 328 00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:52.200 that phrase, the frat boy summer thing, and it's just you know, 329 00:27:52.279 --> 00:27:56.519 spurred off the UNC obviously what happened at UNC, and then some of the 330 00:27:56.599 --> 00:28:02.160 videos from University of Mississippi and Alabama and Hubbard. By the way, this 331 00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:07.160 these protests are not seem to be going well down around the Gulf Coast because 332 00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:11.720 they're not having any of this, and people people are lining up, uh 333 00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:18.599 and they had where was the video from LSU? And then you have you 334 00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:23.720 have frat dudes chanting, you have zero SEC championships to protesters. So it's 335 00:28:23.799 --> 00:28:30.079 like this weird three year letterman meme tie in and it's just it's wild. 336 00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:37.480 And that's only going to grow. That's only going to pick up. And 337 00:28:37.640 --> 00:28:41.440 people putting that giant screen out showing the atrocities of October seventh on Loop. 338 00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:45.079 You're going to see more of that. Guys showing up and running the Good 339 00:28:45.079 --> 00:28:52.240 Morning Vietnam audio. That's a thing that happened at USC or UCLA. So 340 00:28:52.960 --> 00:28:57.319 this thing's just this thing's just ramping up. But it's getting much more personal. 341 00:28:57.359 --> 00:29:00.720 And I'll explain why coming up on the ac O Day radio programs. 342 00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:04.759 It's gonna be I wan't say a wild weather week, but it'll there'll be 343 00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:07.880 a lot of variety. So if you crave variety, this is your week. 344 00:29:07.920 --> 00:29:15.759 We'll chat with him and we got we got snakes on planes and Google 345 00:29:15.920 --> 00:29:18.319 Decision, all sorts of stuff to get to but I want to start with 346 00:29:18.359 --> 00:29:22.240 a trend, and I want to approach this just to recre I'm gonna approach 347 00:29:22.279 --> 00:29:26.160 it from two different directions. I'm gonna, you know, I'm gonna approach 348 00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:32.079 it from me the loudmouth radio host, but also I'm gonna put on my 349 00:29:32.720 --> 00:29:36.680 PR hat because you know, what we do to some extent he is is 350 00:29:37.359 --> 00:29:42.880 PR and communication. You know, it all is under that umbrella, because 351 00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:52.599 I don't understand what how there are There are people who are smart political strategists 352 00:29:52.720 --> 00:29:56.640 for both parties. They're good at it, okay, as much as we 353 00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:59.079 make fun and all that, and there's some real losers out there, but 354 00:30:00.319 --> 00:30:06.119 they're not They They are willing to. They are willing to, even if 355 00:30:06.160 --> 00:30:08.640 they won't say it out loud. They're willing to make decisions based on you 356 00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:12.400 know, actual returns, data and things that they think will work or won't 357 00:30:12.440 --> 00:30:18.759 work. Right, they fired all those people over at the over the Democratic 358 00:30:18.799 --> 00:30:26.200 Party because I also want to evaluate this, this trend. And here's the 359 00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:33.599 trend, taking a modern day political position issue and the issue matters, by 360 00:30:33.640 --> 00:30:45.480 the way, but also the process and conflating it with and then insert some 361 00:30:45.920 --> 00:30:53.039 very famous struggle for something protests, arrests, perhaps you know, horribleness with 362 00:30:53.160 --> 00:30:59.440 interactions with law enforcement. Can't state is brought up what you saw in this 363 00:30:59.599 --> 00:31:08.440 South during the civil rights movement that was done to civil rights protesters and then 364 00:31:08.519 --> 00:31:14.039 to see and then to convince yourself what's going on right now is same, 365 00:31:14.599 --> 00:31:21.559 is the same, and not realizing that you doing that now. It's not 366 00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:25.720 even just the messaging, it's the fact that you would have the audacity to 367 00:31:25.880 --> 00:31:30.599 tell people this is just like nineteen sixty. Let me start with this because 368 00:31:30.640 --> 00:31:33.519 this is This is from the head of the North Carolina Democratic Party, Anderson 369 00:31:33.559 --> 00:31:40.119 Clayton. And Ander said, she's very young. I don't think she's dumb, 370 00:31:40.160 --> 00:31:41.119 though people are saying, oh, she's done no no, no, 371 00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:47.559 no, no. Look, I just think she doesn't see this, and 372 00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:49.759 I don't understand why, because I am seeing Democrats, you know, try 373 00:31:49.799 --> 00:31:55.160 to distance themselves. Politico wrote an article over the weekend, going, it's 374 00:31:55.200 --> 00:31:59.640 surprising when you find out who's funding these protests and the deal is political is 375 00:31:59.720 --> 00:32:05.240 left outlet But the only persons surprise might be Politico. We'll get into that 376 00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:09.200 later. But Clayton tweets the following sixty three years after the freedom Writers came 377 00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:15.039 to the South. We're still arresting folks for peacefully protesting war on college campuses. 378 00:32:15.559 --> 00:32:16.799 All right, so there's strike. This is strike number one. I 379 00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:23.440 understand putting that line out there, but people have eyes and they can see 380 00:32:23.440 --> 00:32:29.440 this stuff. Okay, remember what was ross? What was the galvanizing visual 381 00:32:29.480 --> 00:32:36.319 moment for you with the protests specifically at UNC Was it something somebody said, 382 00:32:36.440 --> 00:32:38.079 something you heard, or was it something you saw? No, yeah, 383 00:32:38.160 --> 00:32:40.319 no, we talked about it is when they put when they took the flag 384 00:32:40.319 --> 00:32:45.480 down to put their flag up, galvanizing moment. Throw and then throwing Remember 385 00:32:45.480 --> 00:32:47.880 they were throwing food and drinks on the on the black police chief. Right, 386 00:32:49.559 --> 00:32:52.519 only those two things. And and then somebody reads this, I feel 387 00:32:52.519 --> 00:32:57.440 like it has the opposite effect of what you think you're going to accomplish. 388 00:32:57.599 --> 00:33:00.319 She goes on to write, university administrators are cross ends here to blame for 389 00:33:00.359 --> 00:33:06.279 the violence against young people. We've witnessed. Quote police arrested now she's quoting 390 00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:10.680 from a report from nineteen sixty. Okay, police arrested Writers for trespassing, 391 00:33:10.799 --> 00:33:15.519 unlawful assembly, violating state, local Jim Crow laws, and other alleged offenses. 392 00:33:16.000 --> 00:33:21.519 But often they first let white mobs attack them without intervention, which, 393 00:33:21.519 --> 00:33:25.599 by the way, she should know because in nineteen sixty it was the person 394 00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:34.480 who had her job in a lot of instances who was organizing the white mobs. 395 00:33:34.519 --> 00:33:37.839 And so for all those reasons, people read that and I don't see 396 00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:42.160 one. Now it comes down to who responds on Twitter, so to say 397 00:33:42.400 --> 00:33:46.039 there's not one person going, you go girl, And frankly, if you 398 00:33:46.240 --> 00:33:52.039 are a as you're seeing, if you are a quote unquote undecided voter and 399 00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:59.720 you are old enough to remember the sixties, this has to galvanize you in 400 00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:02.000 the other direction. Up at Columbia, they were sitting there and they were 401 00:34:02.279 --> 00:34:08.199 conflating humanitarian aid. Right, we need humanitarian aid. We might starve to 402 00:34:08.239 --> 00:34:14.280 death or die of thirst, blah blah blah, and humanitarian aid as functional 403 00:34:14.280 --> 00:34:19.159 adults understand, it is not for ninety thousand dollars a year college students to 404 00:34:19.239 --> 00:34:27.119 eat German butter cookies and high end Deli sandwiches. People see that. People 405 00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:32.159 recognize that there's an article that WRAL had over the weekend. Here we go 406 00:34:32.239 --> 00:34:37.639 headline after row. The network of people who help others get abortions see themselves 407 00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:46.800 as the abortion underground. Organizing a car pool to play parenthood does not I 408 00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:51.360 can't believe. I have to say, that does not make you Harriet Tubbin. 409 00:34:52.800 --> 00:34:58.440 And when you couple that with hashtag stuff, you know, hashtag activism 410 00:34:59.480 --> 00:35:02.199 and you know the LARPing aspect of it. Don't get me wrong, there's 411 00:35:02.239 --> 00:35:05.960 some diehards in there, but a lot of it's just people are like this 412 00:35:06.039 --> 00:35:07.840 is they haven't found anywhere else to fit in, so this is where they 413 00:35:07.920 --> 00:35:14.639 fit in. That makes people angry. I saw some one of the protesters. 414 00:35:14.639 --> 00:35:20.800 What did they uh, they didn't say it, they wrote it. 415 00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:24.840 It was basically real like, real courage is not going somewhere else and enforcing 416 00:35:24.880 --> 00:35:30.000 your will on other people, but rather enforcing what is right on your own 417 00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:37.519 people. Let me let me break that down for you. Real courage is 418 00:35:37.559 --> 00:35:42.599 not military service. It's I guess whatever this is. How do you think 419 00:35:42.639 --> 00:35:45.360 people are going to react to that? Who are moderate, who are pretty 420 00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:52.000 much apolitical in a lot of instances, and that's what they're hearing. And 421 00:35:52.039 --> 00:35:55.440 by the way, that's uh if you if you look at it in the 422 00:35:55.519 --> 00:36:00.880 broader sense of things, right, because you can pick out in individual stuff 423 00:36:00.920 --> 00:36:06.480 where people what they did here in the US too, was was courageous, 424 00:36:06.599 --> 00:36:08.880 unquestionably, and a lot of the activism was going on during the Civil Rights 425 00:36:08.920 --> 00:36:16.000 movement and many other things that that turned out to be inherently correct, right 426 00:36:16.039 --> 00:36:22.239 to be the right thing. Uh, those examples exist. But in the 427 00:36:22.320 --> 00:36:28.360 overall, you're gonna tell me that a person at Columbia sitting there who's on 428 00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:34.239 ninety thousand dollars tuition, eating eating nice and uh, you know, running 429 00:36:34.239 --> 00:36:37.679 out and screaming, you know, from the river to the sea, eradicate 430 00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:40.119 the Jews, and and and then camping. You're telling me that that person 431 00:36:40.199 --> 00:36:45.400 is imbued with more courage than I don't know everyone aboard the USS Indianapolis. 432 00:36:47.239 --> 00:36:51.440 I'm trying to think of really the most horrific consequences. By the way, 433 00:36:51.480 --> 00:36:54.800 do you guys you know that when I reference USS Indianapolis, but the refer 434 00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:58.639 Okay, if you don't, let me just give you the readers digest, 435 00:36:59.000 --> 00:37:02.719 and I want you the whole time time to envision the comparent contrast here. 436 00:37:02.760 --> 00:37:14.239 Okay, the USS Indianapolis was the ship that delivered the parts for the nukes 437 00:37:15.199 --> 00:37:20.320 that we used on Japan. And because they had to, they had to 438 00:37:20.360 --> 00:37:22.440 assemble it on one of the nearby islands, right. They didn't want to 439 00:37:22.440 --> 00:37:28.119 transport all, so they literally assembled it there. The USS Indianapolis they brought 440 00:37:28.159 --> 00:37:35.239 the stuff and the japan had they knew that something bad was coming. And 441 00:37:35.280 --> 00:37:38.760 remember we had said that we have a weapon and it's gonna you guys are 442 00:37:38.800 --> 00:37:43.360 not gonna like it, right we leaf We were leafleting Japan with this, 443 00:37:44.039 --> 00:37:49.960 and the Japanese, the Japanese navy knew that that was the ship carrying stuff. 444 00:37:51.880 --> 00:37:54.039 And so you know, you get a thousand people on this ship and 445 00:37:54.039 --> 00:37:57.519 they're just like, screw it, we got to get this done. It 446 00:37:57.599 --> 00:38:01.400 was rot with danger. Everyone knew. They they dropped off the parts and 447 00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:08.639 they were headed back and they got torpedoed. So Japan did get the ship, 448 00:38:08.679 --> 00:38:10.599 but they didn't get them before they dropped off the parts. And you 449 00:38:10.639 --> 00:38:16.079 know what happened, but the Indianapolis, after it was torpedoed, immediately they 450 00:38:16.119 --> 00:38:21.480 started ceiling. Like two or three hundred of the of the sailors were sealed 451 00:38:21.480 --> 00:38:24.480 into their quarters because you have to start trying to keep the ship from sinking. 452 00:38:25.000 --> 00:38:28.360 And if you're inside and you're on the wrong side of one of those 453 00:38:28.360 --> 00:38:31.000 watertight doors. It was what it was, and there are counts of some 454 00:38:31.039 --> 00:38:37.199 of the sailors who survived who literally were having to stand there next to it 455 00:38:37.239 --> 00:38:39.320 and have all of the people they work with pleading with them to open the 456 00:38:39.320 --> 00:38:44.119 door. And that was just the start of it. Because the ship did 457 00:38:44.199 --> 00:38:46.639 the Titanic thing where it went nose up in the water, and I don't 458 00:38:46.679 --> 00:38:50.400 know if you know what happens. Everyone then jumps off the ship and they 459 00:38:50.400 --> 00:38:55.679 start swimming like mad because it creates a very strong vacuum current and if you 460 00:38:55.679 --> 00:39:01.519 didn't get far enough away, you were literally sucked underwater. And maybe that 461 00:39:01.519 --> 00:39:06.760 would have been the better thing, because it also the entire top of the 462 00:39:06.800 --> 00:39:13.559 water had now become engulfed in flames, so you could get sucked under. 463 00:39:13.639 --> 00:39:16.960 But then if you somehow were able to get up out of there, you 464 00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:22.320 then you burst in there and there's no oxygen because fires consuming oxygen. Plus 465 00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:28.880 you're now on fire. And if somehow, if somehow, that that didn't 466 00:39:28.880 --> 00:39:34.960 get you, and it didn't about uh. They estimate about three hundred people 467 00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:39.239 were lost initially, and then the rest were just bobbing around in the ocean. 468 00:39:42.480 --> 00:39:45.840 And then the shark showed up and but it was all said and done, 469 00:39:45.880 --> 00:39:50.800 I think that two hundred to three hundred made it out of a thousand. 470 00:39:51.159 --> 00:39:54.039 But for days, the sharks would just run around and eat people, 471 00:39:54.400 --> 00:39:59.159 and then they would group up. People would literally group up to see if 472 00:39:59.159 --> 00:40:01.440 that would stop. And at first it worked because the sharks had a bunch 473 00:40:01.480 --> 00:40:06.440 of like carcasses to eat, you know, people who were dead. But 474 00:40:06.719 --> 00:40:09.519 then I don't know, somebody put it on an insta and they're like, 475 00:40:09.519 --> 00:40:13.239 hey man, you got to be here, and then like more sharks showed 476 00:40:13.320 --> 00:40:16.280 up, and literally people would give up and they'd swim away from the group 477 00:40:17.400 --> 00:40:28.760 and then immediately get eaten by sharks. And this went on for days and 478 00:40:28.880 --> 00:40:35.559 days. I mean, just imagine that you got your tent taken away. 479 00:40:35.719 --> 00:40:38.639 Meanwhile some guy might be on fire on top and then the bottom house getting 480 00:40:38.679 --> 00:40:43.280 eaten, which, by the way, that is now just thinking about that 481 00:40:43.400 --> 00:40:51.039 is the worst ross. Put that on my list of ten worst deaths ever. 482 00:40:52.119 --> 00:40:55.280 Fire on top, shark eating you on the bottom. In fact, 483 00:40:55.639 --> 00:41:01.960 it was so horrific what happened, and initially the details of it and why 484 00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:07.000 they were there and what was going on. Because of the secrecy of the 485 00:41:07.079 --> 00:41:09.840 program. Yeah, we used it. But remember we were still then. 486 00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:15.239 You know, after that we were rushed into this Cold war with Russia that 487 00:41:15.519 --> 00:41:21.960 families of sailors wrote letters because the captain survived, they wrote letters telling you 488 00:41:22.239 --> 00:41:27.320 talking about how horrible he is, and instead he didn't explain himself. This 489 00:41:27.320 --> 00:41:35.000 went on for years and years. He finally killed himself. But yeah, 490 00:41:35.199 --> 00:41:38.000 yeah, your sandwich was supposed to be hot, and then they forgot to 491 00:41:38.159 --> 00:41:44.239 put it in the grill thing. I'm sorry. So when people see this 492 00:41:44.480 --> 00:41:47.840 and make statements like that, I don't how you can't serve any purpose to 493 00:41:47.920 --> 00:41:53.400 galvanize people, either to your position or to at the very least electing officials 494 00:41:53.400 --> 00:42:00.639 who might be more sympathetic to it. So if the mark getting person and 495 00:42:00.719 --> 00:42:06.119 he doesn't get it, and you know, the opinionated individual, sure as 496 00:42:06.159 --> 00:42:14.360 hell doesn't get it, but it trucks on man, it trucks on Alan. 497 00:42:14.440 --> 00:42:20.480 What's up, Hey, I was just wondering, Casey. Now, 498 00:42:20.800 --> 00:42:24.360 I know that what's going on over on the other side of the world is 499 00:42:24.400 --> 00:42:29.360 horrible, but how many of these kids you said, you know, they're 500 00:42:29.360 --> 00:42:32.639 going to school ninety thousand dollars a year, which I understand that, but 501 00:42:34.119 --> 00:42:37.639 how many of their parents have mutual funds that have investments that are in Israel, 502 00:42:38.199 --> 00:42:43.519 whereas they're worried about the school being invested in Israel as opposed to their 503 00:42:43.599 --> 00:42:47.840 parents, well maybe their heart by you know what, I suspect these people 504 00:42:47.840 --> 00:42:54.480 are probably also winding to their parents about it if they disagree. So yeah, 505 00:42:54.519 --> 00:42:59.920 I'm going to sell off their mutual funds and you know, divest every 506 00:43:00.079 --> 00:43:04.000 investment they have, because hell, you don't know where your money's invested half 507 00:43:04.079 --> 00:43:07.639 the time in those mutual funds. Yeah, I mean, I'm sure that 508 00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:12.280 they probably expressed their and maybe their parents, maybe their parents the reason they 509 00:43:12.280 --> 00:43:15.800 put them over there is because they just to get them out of the house. 510 00:43:15.920 --> 00:43:17.440 I don't know, but yeah, I hear what you're saying. I 511 00:43:17.440 --> 00:43:21.639 appreciate the call there, Sir. I hear what you're saying. But yeah, 512 00:43:22.559 --> 00:43:32.480 it wouldn't surprise me. The difference is if your parents are paying your 513 00:43:32.480 --> 00:43:37.440 way going through college, there is a line that I think that you eventually 514 00:43:37.519 --> 00:43:39.440 find yourself at that you have to decide whether you want to cross before they 515 00:43:39.440 --> 00:43:49.079 cut you off. So, but each individual circumstances may vary, I guess 516 00:43:49.320 --> 00:43:52.880 would be the way to say that so yes, I don't understand how you 517 00:43:52.920 --> 00:43:57.599 think, well, this is the same thing that's going to irritate people. 518 00:43:57.840 --> 00:44:04.639 It's not nineteen sixty. It's not the cause in and of itself. While 519 00:44:05.159 --> 00:44:07.639 yes, obviously you know people people that push back to allow of the civil 520 00:44:07.719 --> 00:44:14.920 rights legislation inherently at the end of the day, even though we don't know 521 00:44:15.079 --> 00:44:19.239 fully how it plays out in the end, most people's minds see what they 522 00:44:19.280 --> 00:44:23.679 see when they're where they're evaluating your messaging. Is one group. One group 523 00:44:23.719 --> 00:44:28.400 decided that, you know, people should be treated equal, and the other 524 00:44:28.480 --> 00:44:36.199 group is talking about eradicating a population of people and uh and you know, 525 00:44:36.280 --> 00:44:42.000 wearing terrorist garb. So regardless of how you think, they may be the 526 00:44:42.039 --> 00:44:46.559 same. I don't understand how you think that is a winning message. But 527 00:44:46.639 --> 00:44:52.119 by all means, continue, I think would be the position probably of their 528 00:44:52.159 --> 00:44:55.000 political opponents. All right, seven twenty three long segment, we'll be back. 529 00:44:55.039 --> 00:45:00.719 Hang on, I don't understand this phenomena, but you need to stop 530 00:45:00.760 --> 00:45:06.840 it. Why is it that there are so many people who have worked in 531 00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:12.679 sports, in the sports reporting industry for so long and or worked like his 532 00:45:12.880 --> 00:45:17.760 coaches or just you know, involved with the sport of basketball. How is 533 00:45:17.800 --> 00:45:23.039 it that so many of you can't not be creepy when you're talking to Caitlin 534 00:45:23.119 --> 00:45:28.559 Clark? What is wrong with you? Like almost immediately remember around the draft 535 00:45:28.599 --> 00:45:32.159 he had the one of the local broadcast guys. I understood kind of the 536 00:45:32.239 --> 00:45:37.119 joke he was trying to make and how it kind of came across, but 537 00:45:37.400 --> 00:45:43.360 like it was wholly predictable. He made this uncomfortable joke about this little sign, 538 00:45:43.480 --> 00:45:45.639 this I love you signed things she makes, and he was like, 539 00:45:45.679 --> 00:45:49.920 why don't you make that to me? Right? And he was joking about 540 00:45:49.920 --> 00:45:53.159 coverage, but it came across as really creepy. And then she she literally 541 00:45:53.400 --> 00:45:59.480 makes her debut and it's post game and they started they're asking about her boyfriend 542 00:45:59.519 --> 00:46:05.159 and stuff, and it's like, I did Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves beat 543 00:46:05.199 --> 00:46:10.280 the Nuggets over the weekend, right, and which was amazing, And I 544 00:46:10.320 --> 00:46:14.079 do I am a little I have an affinity for the Wolves just because I 545 00:46:14.119 --> 00:46:16.559 lived in Minnesota, and I really got into it that year when I thought 546 00:46:16.599 --> 00:46:21.960 they might actually win it because it was like Garnett Zerbiak, Sam Cassell, 547 00:46:22.079 --> 00:46:27.480 Latrell Spreewell. Even that year a couple other Hoiberg was the outside shooter. 548 00:46:27.599 --> 00:46:31.760 They had a really good team and unfortunately they lost the Western Finals to the 549 00:46:31.840 --> 00:46:36.920 Lakers, and Mark Madsen basically was allowed to come in and shive the Wolves 550 00:46:36.960 --> 00:46:38.639 the whole series and then we signed him the next year. But so, 551 00:46:38.880 --> 00:46:44.559 but this team looks great and Anthony Edwards I saw them talking to him after 552 00:46:44.760 --> 00:46:47.480 and nobody asked him, like if he's gotten to third base with his girl 553 00:46:47.599 --> 00:46:52.559 yet? So stop it, just stop. What is wrong with you? 554 00:46:52.639 --> 00:46:58.320 Folks? Ask her about ask her about if she had a good game, 555 00:46:58.679 --> 00:47:00.760 you know why, and then if she had a bad one, what she 556 00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:04.320 thinks she needs to work on. How about like ask her that people were 557 00:47:04.320 --> 00:47:06.400 saying that she wouldn't play, she wouldn't be able to be you know, 558 00:47:06.440 --> 00:47:08.800 it'd be a challenge for her professionally, and then having an amazing game her 559 00:47:08.800 --> 00:47:12.679 first game. Yes, Yeah, which is why I was sitting there. 560 00:47:13.000 --> 00:47:16.199 Storyline, I'm sitting there on Saturday and I'm scrolling through exer Twitter and I'm 561 00:47:16.199 --> 00:47:20.039 like, hey, I'm like, oh, she played last night, and 562 00:47:20.079 --> 00:47:23.679 that blew my mind the turnaround because she was just in like the final four, 563 00:47:23.800 --> 00:47:27.880 right, the championship game. Yeah, then she got drafted like two 564 00:47:27.880 --> 00:47:30.039 weeks later, and then like a month now she's playing in the w n 565 00:47:30.079 --> 00:47:32.519 B A. I wish, I wish NBA, NFL, I wish it 566 00:47:32.519 --> 00:47:37.079 could all be the same way. That's an increading. That's an incredible turnaround 567 00:47:37.119 --> 00:47:39.639 in my opinion. Yeah, and then people saying she's able to get it 568 00:47:39.679 --> 00:47:42.480 done, but I hear you right, No, no, she's gonna be 569 00:47:42.480 --> 00:47:44.239 poverty, She's not gonna be able to play. And then I'm like, 570 00:47:44.440 --> 00:47:45.599 well, I gotta check this out, and you chall on the stats and 571 00:47:45.639 --> 00:47:47.800 you get through the highlights and you're like, Nope, she's going to be 572 00:47:47.960 --> 00:47:52.440 just fine. Yeah, she'ld be okay. Yeah, but don't you want 573 00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:57.039 to know if her and her boyfriend, if canoodled doesn't that isn't that it? 574 00:47:57.239 --> 00:47:59.880 Right now? I need to know do they have matching pajamas? It's 575 00:47:59.880 --> 00:48:05.400 a oh my gosh, yeah, we won't know unless we ask, Like, 576 00:48:05.480 --> 00:48:07.480 ah, it's just so creepy, man Like. If people will make 577 00:48:07.480 --> 00:48:09.400 an argument, they'll be like, ah, you know, the women and 578 00:48:09.440 --> 00:48:13.119 the men are treated different. And then we can sit there and talk about 579 00:48:13.119 --> 00:48:16.199 why the pay differential is what it is right based on revenue derived and the 580 00:48:16.239 --> 00:48:22.400 process and all that, but when it comes to these press conferences, you're 581 00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:27.760 right kind of and it shouldn't be And it's all the very same woke folks 582 00:48:27.760 --> 00:48:30.199 who would sit there and tell you you're a bigot because you say, hey, 583 00:48:30.199 --> 00:48:31.199 maybe you should just ask about basketball, and they're like, god, 584 00:48:31.239 --> 00:48:36.920 but there's big social issues. Are you asking about her love life for on 585 00:48:36.960 --> 00:48:40.480 her first day? And as Ross pointed out, where there is an overwhelming 586 00:48:40.519 --> 00:48:50.320 storyline, it's clear what the storyline is. If if it's the third season, 587 00:48:50.480 --> 00:48:52.119 right, and it's some mediocre game in the middle, and there's a 588 00:48:52.199 --> 00:48:55.559 rapport that's been drawn, and maybe there was some I don't know, maybe 589 00:48:55.599 --> 00:48:59.800 there was a reason that whoever she's dating is in the news, right they 590 00:48:59.840 --> 00:49:02.199 were court side wearing a crazy outfit or something. Then fine, go ahead 591 00:49:02.239 --> 00:49:06.800 and get into that, but do you know, do it in a in 592 00:49:06.880 --> 00:49:10.960 a in a non creepy manner. But this is it. The only thing 593 00:49:12.039 --> 00:49:15.440 that should be being talked about is wow, Okay, now you've just seen 594 00:49:15.480 --> 00:49:23.159 what the first next level looks like and you and you dominated the same way 595 00:49:23.239 --> 00:49:27.679 that they were sitting there an talking to Anthony Edwards, who put up forty 596 00:49:27.679 --> 00:49:30.440 three points to beat the Nuggets. That was a wild game. The Nuggets 597 00:49:30.440 --> 00:49:37.039 are really good. But no, no, we get we get the other 598 00:49:37.119 --> 00:49:44.000 thing and uh ugh, this is crazy man, all right and a cop 599 00:49:44.239 --> 00:49:45.719 dude. It was a crazy sports weekend. If I could for just a 600 00:49:45.719 --> 00:49:49.199 moment, we get we got tons more audio, we get to on the 601 00:49:49.400 --> 00:49:52.840 protest fromt But I need just a little reprieve the obviously you had, you 602 00:49:52.880 --> 00:49:55.480 had, you know, playoff basketball if you get in the NBA or not. 603 00:49:57.199 --> 00:50:01.719 Still, the storyline is nobody expects the Timberwolves were going to do really 604 00:50:01.760 --> 00:50:05.079 well against the Nuggets, and they took game one. Now they still may 605 00:50:05.159 --> 00:50:08.400 lose. Okay, the closest I think it was what the closest Cup finish 606 00:50:08.440 --> 00:50:14.519 in history over in the world of NASCAR, Am I am? I do 607 00:50:14.599 --> 00:50:15.760 I have that stat right? I believe that's correct. I think it was 608 00:50:15.800 --> 00:50:21.480 the closest. Yeah, here we go. The closest finish in series history 609 00:50:21.960 --> 00:50:25.360 took place over the weekend. And did you see the finish of the Kentucky 610 00:50:25.400 --> 00:50:31.800 Derby. I watched that thing five times and had to walk physically walk up 611 00:50:32.079 --> 00:50:37.039 and freeze it and walk up to the TV. So I'm standing there, 612 00:50:37.079 --> 00:50:37.880 you know, that you're standing. When you were a kid, if you 613 00:50:37.920 --> 00:50:40.719 stood that close, your your mom and yell at you because your eyes were 614 00:50:40.719 --> 00:50:49.400 gonna burst or whatever to see it. And then the the golfer who was 615 00:50:49.719 --> 00:50:55.559 winning the Byron or win in the PGA tournament over the weekend. He's got 616 00:50:55.559 --> 00:51:00.400 a one shot lead. Tyler, No, that was the other day. 617 00:51:00.400 --> 00:51:06.719 I'm sorry. Ben Coles is his name, and so this is the Byron 618 00:51:06.800 --> 00:51:12.519 Nelson and he's got a one stroke lead. Eighteenth hole has one career top 619 00:51:12.559 --> 00:51:19.360 ten finish ever, right, and and the eighteenth hole is playing as if 620 00:51:19.400 --> 00:51:22.159 not the easiest, one of the easiest. In fact, nobody had bogied 621 00:51:22.199 --> 00:51:29.440 it all day. And the dude melts down. But for their by their 622 00:51:29.480 --> 00:51:31.199 standards, if I shot a if I shot a bogie, it, you 623 00:51:31.239 --> 00:51:37.239 know, no, that's you know, that's just me on a part five, 624 00:51:37.320 --> 00:51:39.440 probably gonna shoot a bogie. But this guy me, he shoots, 625 00:51:39.480 --> 00:51:43.800 and he shoots a bogey, got a one stroke lead. And then the 626 00:51:43.880 --> 00:51:47.119 dude he's playing with in his group shoots a birdie. So literally flip the 627 00:51:47.119 --> 00:51:51.079 script on it. So if you like close finishes and crazy stuff, man, 628 00:51:51.119 --> 00:51:54.039 it was your weekend. And all they had to do was not act 629 00:51:54.159 --> 00:52:00.920 like creepers, and they couldn't help themselves. This is what man, All 630 00:52:00.039 --> 00:52:05.920 right, let's do this. Let's grab ray here for man. You gonna 631 00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:09.119 yeah, a good week for you because everything is just always it's you know, 632 00:52:09.159 --> 00:52:13.719 it's not San Diago, right, it's gonna be a little up, 633 00:52:13.760 --> 00:52:15.679 little down, and so let's uh, how you doing, and let's get 634 00:52:15.679 --> 00:52:21.559 into it. Yeah, give you the week a little bit more unsettled than 635 00:52:21.639 --> 00:52:24.320 the end of the week. Big cool down coming. I thinks the headline 636 00:52:24.679 --> 00:52:30.519 had some rain yesterday Saturday across the area too, and more showers casey already 637 00:52:30.519 --> 00:52:34.679 as we had through this morning of south of Charlotte and west of Hickory and 638 00:52:34.760 --> 00:52:37.239 Ashville heading this way. So I think midday into the afternoon we'll start to 639 00:52:37.239 --> 00:52:43.800 see the showers, the thunderstorms come back in here. Temperature wise, probably 640 00:52:43.840 --> 00:52:45.960 get close to eighty. Most of us will stay in the seventies this morning. 641 00:52:45.960 --> 00:52:50.599 I already start off in the sixties with some patchy fog and drizzle around 642 00:52:50.599 --> 00:52:53.199 too, so that may be hampering things. More showers and thunderstorms around early 643 00:52:53.280 --> 00:52:58.760 tonight, and we'll still have some showers thundershowers tomorrow, might add a little 644 00:52:58.800 --> 00:53:01.079 bit more heat to the atmosphere, but there's still be plenty of dry hours 645 00:53:01.119 --> 00:53:07.039 with the shower thunderstorm threat mixed in there. Mid eighties and then Wednesday maybe 646 00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:10.079 close to nineties, especially in the Triangle, and it does look like shower 647 00:53:10.159 --> 00:53:14.440 thundershowers of return of the afternoon. The cool downcoming though, is going to 648 00:53:14.480 --> 00:53:15.840 be in a very pleasant weekend. I'm going to jump right toward that, 649 00:53:15.960 --> 00:53:19.920 because we'll get a cold front to come through by the weekend, a high 650 00:53:20.039 --> 00:53:22.519 load of mid seventies, could see some lows, especially from the triad west 651 00:53:22.599 --> 00:53:25.239 end of the mountains, maybe into the forties, so you know, a 652 00:53:25.239 --> 00:53:29.960 little un settled beginning in midweek. Later in the week it'll cool off, 653 00:53:30.000 --> 00:53:31.840 and I think really by the weekend is going to be the payoff. So 654 00:53:32.119 --> 00:53:36.039 fingers crossed and plenty more days to talk about that. A nice school down 655 00:53:36.039 --> 00:53:39.639 all the way. Yeah, did your horse win the derby? Now my 656 00:53:39.679 --> 00:53:44.360 horse came in second. Oh yeah. Do you guys do a random Do 657 00:53:44.360 --> 00:53:46.679 you guys just do a random draw like everybody else? Uh No, we 658 00:53:46.960 --> 00:53:51.480 kind of just kind of we didn't really do anything official. Everybody just kind 659 00:53:51.480 --> 00:53:54.119 of picked their favorites and Yeah, we didn't get that much into it since 660 00:53:54.119 --> 00:53:58.079 we were out of town. So usually we have a little gathering and all 661 00:53:58.119 --> 00:54:00.960 that stuff. But yeah, we're just you know, but secondism as good 662 00:54:00.960 --> 00:54:06.000 as first, but it's better than last. No, my horse was so 663 00:54:06.079 --> 00:54:08.280 the way we do it is everybody throws in like twenty bucks, right, 664 00:54:08.679 --> 00:54:13.400 and then you pay for a second third. And my horse literally at the 665 00:54:13.440 --> 00:54:15.639 last second was like I don't want Casey to have money, so it fell 666 00:54:15.679 --> 00:54:22.039 out a third. So sorry about that. It's all a conspiracy against me. 667 00:54:22.239 --> 00:54:24.559 Man, all right, all right, appreciate Okay, all right, 668 00:54:24.599 --> 00:54:28.559 there you go raced agic from the Weather Channel. Yeah. I was like, 669 00:54:28.559 --> 00:54:30.800 oh, it was just it was just my money back. But still 670 00:54:31.559 --> 00:54:37.000 like, come on man, the excitement for two minutes and nothing there although 671 00:54:37.079 --> 00:54:43.800 the hats, can we stop it with the hats? Can't? I under 672 00:54:44.000 --> 00:54:46.679 I'm gonna probably take flak for this, but you know that that tradition is 673 00:54:46.800 --> 00:54:54.400 literally like that's a holdover British thing, right because they have I camera what 674 00:54:54.440 --> 00:54:57.639 they call it over in the UK. It's a big damn deal where they 675 00:54:57.679 --> 00:55:00.039 all show up and it's you know, hats and they have to have a 676 00:55:00.079 --> 00:55:05.639 special suit and the ladies hat like it's a holdover kind of British thing, 677 00:55:05.760 --> 00:55:08.440 and like, so we don't need that because I find it wildly distracting. 678 00:55:08.480 --> 00:55:13.360 Then when all the little cutesy hosts are running around with obni the obnoxious hats, 679 00:55:13.800 --> 00:55:15.239 like, we don't have to do that. We won, right, 680 00:55:17.280 --> 00:55:22.760 so we won. Let's let's figure out the Julip thing can stay. The 681 00:55:22.840 --> 00:55:29.840 hats gotta go. But because you know, we claim victory before the British 682 00:55:29.880 --> 00:55:32.559 what was it somebody said they blew a thirteen colony lead, we can change 683 00:55:32.559 --> 00:55:37.119 our hats. Okay, all right, there you go seven forty six eight 684 00:55:37.159 --> 00:55:39.440 eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four if you want to defend hats. 685 00:55:39.760 --> 00:55:44.119 More audio coming up next. Hang on a c O Day radio program, 686 00:55:44.199 --> 00:55:51.840 I mentioned the British too, I was probably mentioned this. So they 687 00:55:51.960 --> 00:55:55.559 had a they had a guy by the who was what party? Okay, 688 00:55:55.639 --> 00:56:01.599 Green party, but this is the British Green Party who was elected in Leeds 689 00:56:02.440 --> 00:56:12.639 and at his victory party starts shouting alawa akbar, which you know contextually can 690 00:56:12.679 --> 00:56:19.679 be fine. The problem is this dude, and this was known to voters, 691 00:56:20.320 --> 00:56:28.559 put out like social media victory videos. On October seventh like cheering on 692 00:56:28.679 --> 00:56:35.039 what happened, and this dude just got elected. And then somebody had a 693 00:56:35.079 --> 00:56:39.039 stat and I was kind of I didn't search every aspect of it, but 694 00:56:39.159 --> 00:56:46.039 enough to satisfy me that it's probably mostly right that in all major British cities 695 00:56:46.079 --> 00:56:50.800 now or like top fifteen or whatever they have like twelve or fifteen that they 696 00:56:50.840 --> 00:56:55.039 consider their major city, every single one, either the mayor or the majority 697 00:56:55.119 --> 00:57:02.079 of the council and council online parties are Muslim now. And you know, 698 00:57:02.320 --> 00:57:07.079 when you consider the total population of the UK and the Muslim population, it 699 00:57:07.320 --> 00:57:17.280 is way higher than than the percentage there. And how like how a dude 700 00:57:17.280 --> 00:57:22.119 who's who's literally like, yeah, you get you get those party goers and 701 00:57:22.159 --> 00:57:27.880 then you elect that guy that is wild to me, man, absolutely crazy. 702 00:57:28.000 --> 00:57:32.360 So yeah, that is uh, that's just since I mentioned the UK, 703 00:57:32.559 --> 00:57:36.519 thought i'd bring that little nugget up. All right, let's get to 704 00:57:36.800 --> 00:57:38.760 uh, let's get to uh some of the call or call some of the 705 00:57:38.760 --> 00:57:44.920 audio rather, Oh man, where do we start? Well, let's go 706 00:57:44.960 --> 00:57:52.920 ahead and start here, shall we. So the May the fourth right Saturday 707 00:57:53.480 --> 00:57:58.280 obviously one of the UH. I refer to it as the nerd high holies 708 00:57:59.039 --> 00:58:02.800 that and pied A get very excited. But you know that's fine. And 709 00:58:02.800 --> 00:58:06.360 what a weekend you got May fourth, and then say cold a mile May 710 00:58:06.360 --> 00:58:09.320 fifth, right, they and it landed perfectly on a weekend you could go 711 00:58:09.400 --> 00:58:13.480 out and probably have a pretty good time, maybe some of you did. 712 00:58:15.280 --> 00:58:19.679 And it all would have been fine until Mark Hamill showed up in the White 713 00:58:19.719 --> 00:58:23.719 House and uh, well, you know I called him. This is him 714 00:58:23.800 --> 00:58:30.239 kind of kicking off the press briefing. He standing next to Jean Pierre, 715 00:58:30.280 --> 00:58:34.719 who in a later photo the two would have the most awkward hug I've seen 716 00:58:34.760 --> 00:58:37.559 in a while. But anyway, I'm sorry, let's listen to uh luke 717 00:58:37.679 --> 00:58:40.840 here. Well, you know I called him mister president. He said, 718 00:58:42.239 --> 00:58:44.239 you can call me Joe, and I said, can I call you? 719 00:58:44.320 --> 00:58:52.920 Joebi wan Kenovi the fourth be with you always. That's a little Biden's little 720 00:58:52.920 --> 00:58:54.119 tag. There's beause there's him doing that, and then there's him in the 721 00:58:54.320 --> 00:58:59.960 Oval office with a weirdly close little like video being taken. But okay, 722 00:59:00.199 --> 00:59:06.400 all right, whatever. Yeah, half the time when Hollywood schmoozes with political 723 00:59:06.400 --> 00:59:12.079 people, it's a little cringey because, for whatever reason, and they both 724 00:59:12.119 --> 00:59:15.599 have to be charismatic, but some of them aren't or they should be usually 725 00:59:15.079 --> 00:59:19.440 and then it's just this weird thing. So that's going on there, and 726 00:59:19.480 --> 00:59:23.760 I'm like, oh man, that was but I think a lot of that's 727 00:59:23.840 --> 00:59:30.559 colored by Mark Hamill is an incessant turd on social media, and it's just 728 00:59:30.639 --> 00:59:35.039 annoying because there's no reason for it. Also, what happened to his neck 729 00:59:35.480 --> 00:59:39.559 in the one video? Doesn't look like he has a neck, So I 730 00:59:39.639 --> 00:59:44.599 thought that that was going to be it, but God blessed Justin Trudeau, 731 00:59:45.960 --> 00:59:50.199 who himself had to put out a little video for May the fourth, and 732 00:59:50.679 --> 00:59:55.519 this is this is what we get. He's sitting at the desk bones he 733 00:59:58.280 --> 01:00:00.119 by the way, does that look like a presidential or does that look like 734 01:00:00.679 --> 01:00:07.920 the desk in our boss's office? Right like you know our dad, you 735 01:00:07.920 --> 01:00:13.000 know, you want to talk about head of state's desks. United States has 736 01:00:13.000 --> 01:00:20.360 a pretty good one. Pretty good one got secret compartments. There's treasure in 737 01:00:20.400 --> 01:00:23.320 there, I mean, or there was some guy took it, but you 738 01:00:23.360 --> 01:00:29.159 get my and he's just sitting there like he's middle management. So I'm sorry, 739 01:00:29.159 --> 01:00:37.519 back to this. I hate that ring Tom, not just on him. 740 01:00:37.599 --> 01:00:43.840 But hey, Hayden, how you doing, Prime Minister? And to 741 01:00:44.000 --> 01:00:46.159 you too, all right, so he couldn't even get Luke on the phone, 742 01:00:46.440 --> 01:00:55.679 right, so he's got Hayden Christiansen, who obviously spoiler Luke's father. 743 01:00:58.280 --> 01:01:00.599 So uh, anyway, all right, continue, my friend. I've actually 744 01:01:00.679 --> 01:01:07.519 told the kids they better be binging Star Wars amazing and so oh I'm working. 745 01:01:07.559 --> 01:01:10.519 I'm actually packing up my stuff cause I got to hit the road soon. 746 01:01:12.119 --> 01:01:27.679 But listen, May the Fourth be with you. I think you get 747 01:01:27.679 --> 01:01:32.559 the gist of it. We'll tweet it out. We'll tweet it out. 748 01:01:32.599 --> 01:01:35.440 You could check it out. You see both of them, because I did 749 01:01:35.480 --> 01:01:39.360 tweet the the Hammil thing too. So I don't know, man, I 750 01:01:39.440 --> 01:01:44.079 understand. I understand that I should be thankful because at the very least, 751 01:01:44.079 --> 01:01:47.320 it kind of gets us away from, you know, really the deepest of 752 01:01:47.400 --> 01:01:52.559 politics, except for the fact that I don't know Christiansen his thing. But 753 01:01:52.719 --> 01:01:55.039 Hammil is very political. So I think people received it that way, and 754 01:01:55.079 --> 01:02:00.360 it's like, can't we just just let people have stuff? Okay? Yeah, 755 01:02:00.639 --> 01:02:04.480 it was Uh, it was busy, busy, busy over the weekend 756 01:02:04.480 --> 01:02:10.000 of the world of Sports and the world of protesters. Here's a young man 757 01:02:10.079 --> 01:02:15.000 who just can't understand how the police who are literally physically extracting him and his 758 01:02:15.039 --> 01:02:22.280 cohorts, uh, just can't understand how they would interrupt this educational experience. 759 01:02:22.400 --> 01:02:36.039 Listen to this and tell me if you're a BS detectors going on which, 760 01:02:36.079 --> 01:02:38.719 by the way, up to that point, where is exactly what people are 761 01:02:38.719 --> 01:02:42.840 thinking looking at him and his friends? This is a school. What are 762 01:02:42.840 --> 01:02:45.199 you doing? But hold on, He's going to flip the script. Learn 763 01:02:46.079 --> 01:02:52.760 I kind of learn about public health? Is that Okay? I didn't I 764 01:02:52.800 --> 01:02:59.000 didn't study public health? That is this one of the requirements. I mean, 765 01:02:59.000 --> 01:03:04.519 it might be considering some of these professors literally will give students extra credit 766 01:03:04.559 --> 01:03:12.000 for Also, I feel like this discuss. You saw the after the photos 767 01:03:12.039 --> 01:03:17.239 of UCLA after they re the protesters, and it's just destroyed. Right, 768 01:03:17.320 --> 01:03:22.880 There's crap everywhere. There's quite literally crap in some places everywhere. I don't 769 01:03:22.920 --> 01:03:27.000 know why, there is this thing that always happens with these moonback protests, 770 01:03:27.400 --> 01:03:32.639 but eventually they start going feral. Give you an example. Do you remember 771 01:03:32.639 --> 01:03:42.119 when they occupied the Wisconsin legislature over I think that particular vote was over the 772 01:03:42.639 --> 01:03:45.360 government unions, right, and they decided they were going to occupy the legislature 773 01:03:46.159 --> 01:03:52.079 and immediately because you have to know in Wisconsin, like a lot of the 774 01:03:52.360 --> 01:03:58.360 you know a lot of cold weather places is there's tunnel systems, and in 775 01:03:58.639 --> 01:04:00.679 Wisconsin it happens to be a above ground so you can kind of see like 776 01:04:00.719 --> 01:04:05.920 they look like Gerbil tubes man and that. Then people all the protesters were 777 01:04:06.039 --> 01:04:11.639 just going there and do their business, and at UCLA doing that too. 778 01:04:11.719 --> 01:04:16.360 It's just, ugh, how is that from a public health perspective? As 779 01:04:16.360 --> 01:04:21.360 somebody who is educated in that, how why would you hang out there? 780 01:04:21.400 --> 01:04:26.920 You should have the knowledge to know that this is not that's not a very 781 01:04:27.559 --> 01:04:30.280 healthy environment. But whatever, all right, So there's that, and then 782 01:04:30.719 --> 01:04:36.320 we started seeing these videos and I'll give you my favorite example of those who 783 01:04:36.360 --> 01:04:42.400 couldn't make it to the protest but still wanted to let folks know that they 784 01:04:42.440 --> 01:04:50.840 stand by them. And it's it's dumb. Here we go. My name 785 01:04:50.920 --> 01:04:56.320 is Case and I graduated from cal Poly Humboldt in twenty twenty two with the 786 01:04:56.360 --> 01:05:01.000 Masters in Sociology. Protesters of cal Poly humbler have taken over students are pre 787 01:05:01.119 --> 01:05:09.519 named into Fataho okay one speaking to the mic person, I don't know if 788 01:05:09.519 --> 01:05:14.440 it's nay them or whatever. And by the way, the protesters at cal 789 01:05:14.559 --> 01:05:23.320 Poly Humboldt took over and decimated inside the buildings of graffiti, busting everything off 790 01:05:23.360 --> 01:05:28.400 the wall. It was wanton destruction. But anyway, so what this person 791 01:05:28.480 --> 01:05:31.079 is ripping up is they have a degree that they've received from one of the 792 01:05:31.159 --> 01:05:38.440 cal Poly schools. So it is the paper degree that this individual's ripping up. 793 01:05:38.519 --> 01:05:42.840 And eventually, well, well let's listen in it's for twenty second to 794 01:05:42.920 --> 01:05:48.280 demand and Israel's genocide in Gaza and university's role in the occupation of Palestine. 795 01:05:49.119 --> 01:05:55.840 Protesters at cal Poly Humble demand that the university de escalates by calling off police 796 01:05:55.920 --> 01:06:03.400 and ensuring no academic consequences for students involved. That the university disclose and divest 797 01:06:03.480 --> 01:06:09.960 their financial investments in the Zionist apartheid state, and that the university calls for 798 01:06:10.000 --> 01:06:15.440 an immediate, permanent ceasefire in Gaza. Yeah, you get to your sacrifice. 799 01:06:15.519 --> 01:06:24.400 Calupoly Humble administration has refused negotiations and instead continues to escalate the situation by 800 01:06:24.400 --> 01:06:29.519 criminalizing protesters family. So today I'm burning my diploma in solidarity with the brave 801 01:06:29.599 --> 01:06:32.880 protesters of cal Poly, humble and across the so called US who refuse to 802 01:06:32.920 --> 01:06:38.920 back down, and incomplete solidarity with the people of Palestine. Okay, all 803 01:06:39.039 --> 01:06:44.800 right? Do you you know? And and then they proceed to rip it 804 01:06:44.800 --> 01:06:50.639 into little shreds and uh, ENLiGHT it, light it aflame. You know 805 01:06:50.760 --> 01:06:57.440 that that doesn't that doesn't mean anything, right, Like if you let's say, 806 01:06:57.719 --> 01:07:02.880 uh, let's say you have a a doctorate from Harvard, Ross, 807 01:07:02.960 --> 01:07:05.400 I have a Do I have a doctorate from Harvard? We'ress gonna look that 808 01:07:05.480 --> 01:07:10.039 up real quick. Yeah, so a check and you do not? I 809 01:07:10.119 --> 01:07:14.440 do not? Okay, all right, let's say I did and then I 810 01:07:14.480 --> 01:07:15.519 lost the diploma. You don't even have to burn it. This is I 811 01:07:15.519 --> 01:07:19.199 couldn't find moved and then I couldn't find it. You know that doesn't mean 812 01:07:19.239 --> 01:07:23.000 that I have to like go back to school, right, No, I'm 813 01:07:23.039 --> 01:07:25.559 pretty sure. I'm pretty much sure. It means it's over right, I 814 01:07:25.599 --> 01:07:28.360 have to if I want another die So if I want to be a doctor 815 01:07:28.400 --> 01:07:30.760 again, I have to go and put the time in. Is that how 816 01:07:30.800 --> 01:07:32.559 it works? So? Yeah, yeah, I don't. I don't think 817 01:07:32.599 --> 01:07:39.119 that's that's not at all how it works. You're still that so okay, 818 01:07:39.360 --> 01:07:42.079 now you have to now what are you out. I don't know what the 819 01:07:42.159 --> 01:07:45.239 replacement costs on one of those is from school. Some universities will replace them, 820 01:07:45.280 --> 01:07:50.000 some have a fee, right, okay, so what the hell are 821 01:07:50.039 --> 01:07:54.360 you talking about. It's like when people burn their jerseys or whatever and you 822 01:07:54.360 --> 01:07:59.199 can go buy another one. Yeah, although, but they do that symbolically 823 01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:06.559 and this I understand that there's symbolism here, But that's sports. This is 824 01:08:06.960 --> 01:08:10.920 life, do you know what I'm saying? And for some people, sports 825 01:08:11.000 --> 01:08:15.199 is life. Like I remember when far I've talked about it. I remember 826 01:08:15.199 --> 01:08:20.039 when FARV came to Minnesota and like over Wisconsin, all of these bars would 827 01:08:20.079 --> 01:08:25.359 like have far of memorabilia burning nights and it was very amusing to watch, 828 01:08:25.560 --> 01:08:30.359 as as you know, the from a rivalry perspective. Plus, we would 829 01:08:30.359 --> 01:08:35.760 call bars and randomly uh uh and then randomly asked to talk to people, 830 01:08:36.199 --> 01:08:44.960 right, and and listening to drunk packers fans explain why they're burning. It's 831 01:08:45.000 --> 01:08:47.079 just funny. But I don't think they're delusional people at the end of the 832 01:08:47.159 --> 01:08:53.439 day. Rights, it's just kind of their response whatever. But in reality, 833 01:08:53.560 --> 01:09:00.520 like this person believes they're making a difference and you're not. You could 834 01:09:00.560 --> 01:09:02.159 just go get that or at the Ross's play, you just go get another 835 01:09:02.239 --> 01:09:06.239 jersey, go on NFL dot com. I mean, but like, this 836 01:09:06.279 --> 01:09:10.239 person thinks they're making a difference, and in reality, what was the degree 837 01:09:10.239 --> 01:09:14.840 into by the way, it was the humanity? Was it a humanities degree 838 01:09:14.920 --> 01:09:18.600 or something? Hold on, I gotta find it here, Like what whatever 839 01:09:18.640 --> 01:09:21.119 will the world here? We go? Yeah? No, it was a 840 01:09:21.239 --> 01:09:28.560 Masters of Sociology. I mean, what will this world do without another university 841 01:09:28.560 --> 01:09:34.039 at California University Masters of Sociology degree holder? I don't I don't know that 842 01:09:34.079 --> 01:09:38.079 we can go on, or maybe it changed your mind, you're like, 843 01:09:38.119 --> 01:09:41.359 wow, look at the bravery of this individual burning this piece of paper that 844 01:09:41.359 --> 01:09:45.960 they can order a new one of online. They're so brave. But the 845 01:09:46.000 --> 01:09:50.359 funniest moment, hands down, and all the protesters are insanity, and boy, 846 01:09:50.439 --> 01:09:54.000 this is like, you know, one of the rules if you're a 847 01:09:54.039 --> 01:09:57.359 politician is never hold up a white piece of paper, right, even if 848 01:09:57.359 --> 01:10:00.800 there's something written on it, because now you're a meme. Biden just did 849 01:10:00.840 --> 01:10:03.159 oh what did he did? He did one the other day what was it? 850 01:10:03.319 --> 01:10:08.560 He tweeted that mental health thing. Yeah, he's like mental health is 851 01:10:08.600 --> 01:10:12.439 health or something, right, and and tweeted it unironically by the way, 852 01:10:12.520 --> 01:10:15.399 or his people did. But it was on like a white graphic and it 853 01:10:15.520 --> 01:10:19.920 immediately and it had his signature under it, and immediately even the most basic 854 01:10:20.000 --> 01:10:25.439 photoshop person, now you have a meme, and now there's a meme generator 855 01:10:25.479 --> 01:10:30.720 for it. And in that same way, I think that people have brilliantly 856 01:10:30.880 --> 01:10:35.439 noticed that if you have these these gods of protesting, some moss protesters standing 857 01:10:35.479 --> 01:10:40.039 there at e lectern right, you know, rallying the crowd, but they 858 01:10:40.119 --> 01:10:44.880 have their big stupid mass on, you can make them say whatever you want 859 01:10:45.239 --> 01:10:48.800 because you can't see the lips moving because they have their their their their brave 860 01:10:48.960 --> 01:10:54.680 mass on, which is totally about health and not about hiding identities. And 861 01:10:54.800 --> 01:11:00.840 somebody mocked up this video of these two women at Colombia and like they did, 862 01:11:00.880 --> 01:11:04.119 so I'll tell you what's so perfect about it, because again you can't 863 01:11:04.119 --> 01:11:12.760 see the lips moving, but the gestures and mannerisms of the women fits with 864 01:11:13.000 --> 01:11:15.359 the language so well, Like there's a part I'm a play it for you, 865 01:11:15.399 --> 01:11:18.520 but I want you to watch it. There's a part where because one's 866 01:11:18.520 --> 01:11:26.840 standing next to the one doing the talking, and the speaker transitions into this 867 01:11:26.920 --> 01:11:30.079 part that you're gonna hear about how Jewish students have all these friends, and 868 01:11:30.119 --> 01:11:33.640 then there is a quick nodding of agreement by the other individuals. So they 869 01:11:33.880 --> 01:11:42.159 perfectly timed this. It's very well done. Here's the here's the audio. 870 01:11:42.239 --> 01:11:45.520 By the way, So the main reason that we're protesting today has to do 871 01:11:45.600 --> 01:11:49.239 with the fact that nobody has ever invited us to any keggers on or off 872 01:11:49.279 --> 01:11:55.920 campus. We've never been invited to any parties. We've never even been looked 873 01:11:55.960 --> 01:11:58.479 at by any men. I mean I used to be into men, but 874 01:11:58.520 --> 01:12:01.159 then I decided that it would be easier to be non binary. So these 875 01:12:01.159 --> 01:12:05.520 are the main reasons that we are against Israel. It is also really frustrating 876 01:12:05.520 --> 01:12:10.239 that many of the Jewish students at the school seem to have large friend groups 877 01:12:10.720 --> 01:12:15.960 and are able to meet people and have fun and have a good time, 878 01:12:15.079 --> 01:12:21.399 and we just see that as colonialism at play. So without colonialism, we 879 01:12:21.479 --> 01:12:27.199 would be able to level the playing field and make sure that students like us 880 01:12:27.760 --> 01:12:30.520 would be the center of attention as opposed to popular people. Okay, all 881 01:12:30.600 --> 01:12:34.359 right, so you know, obviously it's an encapsulation of an argument that we've 882 01:12:34.359 --> 01:12:39.680 talked about here that people make. It's like, why this is this seems 883 01:12:39.720 --> 01:12:43.720 like a group for people who can't don't fit into any other groups. And 884 01:12:43.720 --> 01:12:48.800 and I don't know, I don't think that that's one hundred percent false when 885 01:12:49.079 --> 01:12:53.880 when you see some of this stuff, right, like the that weird ren 886 01:12:54.000 --> 01:13:00.760 Fair couple we had last week's audio, so, like said, very well 887 01:13:00.800 --> 01:13:04.520 done. I'm concerned though, in a in a in a world with so 888 01:13:04.640 --> 01:13:10.560 much better AI and everything else out there, when people should be naturally suspicious 889 01:13:10.560 --> 01:13:14.079 of anything. Even leading up to this, the number of people who thought 890 01:13:14.079 --> 01:13:17.399 that was real and it's not just a testament to how well done it is, 891 01:13:17.479 --> 01:13:20.640 like you can't see the lips moving, the mannerisms fit with what they're 892 01:13:20.640 --> 01:13:26.159 saying and all that. But at no point did I look at that and 893 01:13:26.239 --> 01:13:29.119 go, oh, that's probably them. And I was blown away by the 894 01:13:29.159 --> 01:13:31.159 number of there's still there's still people even after I said, well, come 895 01:13:31.199 --> 01:13:34.439 on, it's obvious that come on, dude, the mic clarity is like 896 01:13:34.520 --> 01:13:39.960 way too yes, and that well that I started thinking that maybe for you 897 01:13:40.039 --> 01:13:44.520 and I it's easier because you're right, it doesn't match. If think about 898 01:13:44.560 --> 01:13:46.560 what you normally hear when somebody's standing outside and there's a crowd, even if 899 01:13:46.600 --> 01:13:50.479 they're speaking, there's a crowd, noise, there's wind, there's all these 900 01:13:50.520 --> 01:13:56.479 things. And the quality of the audio was clearly recorded on a on a 901 01:13:56.600 --> 01:13:59.600 very good mic in in a room, and then they did mix a little 902 01:13:59.600 --> 01:14:01.600 background in, but no, hell no. And then people are getting mad 903 01:14:01.640 --> 01:14:03.720 at me though it's not that obvious, and I'm like, dude, if 904 01:14:03.720 --> 01:14:10.439 you can't figure this out, the internet's not for you, cause you're gonna 905 01:14:10.439 --> 01:14:14.800 get duped a lot and end up financing your waterbed. It's what you're gonna 906 01:14:14.800 --> 01:14:16.800 do. What who would do that for? Is it? But it's probably 907 01:14:16.880 --> 01:14:20.520 zero percent APR? Right? No, it's a super high APR. Oh 908 01:14:20.560 --> 01:14:25.239 man, that's that's I can't believe anyone would do that. What do you 909 01:14:25.279 --> 01:14:28.000 do with thinking that's real? Come on, you get it. But it's 910 01:14:28.000 --> 01:14:31.079 really well done. I would encourage you to check it out because it is 911 01:14:31.119 --> 01:14:35.000 that all right, let me uh, let me pull out of that for 912 01:14:35.039 --> 01:14:36.560 just a month. Oh I got it. No, I'm sorry. I 913 01:14:36.560 --> 01:14:40.079 I promised you the Trump ad. Let me do that first, because I 914 01:14:40.119 --> 01:14:45.119 want to talk about a couple of local stories. But uh so Google initially 915 01:14:45.159 --> 01:14:46.359 said, hey, we're not gonna run this ad. I'm gonna play the 916 01:14:46.359 --> 01:14:50.600 ad for you. It's a woman who is sitting in like a campaign office 917 01:14:50.680 --> 01:14:56.319 making calls. Is a call bank? Okay, that's standard stuff that unfortunately 918 01:14:56.359 --> 01:14:59.000 has already begun infiltrating our life. By the way, how many of you 919 01:14:59.119 --> 01:15:04.920 raise your hand, have now had multiple people cold call you for polling stuff, 920 01:15:04.920 --> 01:15:09.079 for to ask you questions that's already started. I had like two last 921 01:15:09.079 --> 01:15:13.840 week. I'm on the apparently I'm on the hell list. But so it's 922 01:15:13.880 --> 01:15:18.039 that scenario. And she's reached a voter who has been a Democrat voter previously. 923 01:15:18.159 --> 01:15:20.279 Right, she's just working down the list, make sure we have your 924 01:15:20.319 --> 01:15:25.680 support, and the following conversation takes place. Oh and with the Biden campaign. 925 01:15:25.800 --> 01:15:28.760 Yeah, yeah, I'm voted for Biden last time. That's fantastic, 926 01:15:29.159 --> 01:15:32.359 is it? Everything costs more? Foo gus rent? Okay, but Biden's 927 01:15:32.399 --> 01:15:36.920 helping pay rent for newcomers to America from around the world. You mean illegal 928 01:15:36.920 --> 01:15:41.960 immigrants. I'm struggling to pay my bills, but Biden's paying rent for illegals. 929 01:15:42.079 --> 01:15:45.119 They get handouts and I'm paying for it. But Biden can still count 930 01:15:45.159 --> 01:15:48.520 on your vote. Right, things were better before Biden. I'm voting for 931 01:15:48.560 --> 01:15:51.680 Trump, Take America great again. INCO's responsible for the content of this advertising. 932 01:15:51.880 --> 01:15:56.960 Okay, all right, so it's not it's not some groundbreaking ad, 933 01:15:57.000 --> 01:16:00.960 but it is. I think it's a proper way of packaging what is a 934 01:16:00.479 --> 01:16:03.760 I think going to be a big thing to watch in this election, right, 935 01:16:03.920 --> 01:16:11.119 traditional voting patterns based on different demographics, and like, if you look 936 01:16:11.119 --> 01:16:15.079 at the polling and you look at the concerns out there, Democrats are very 937 01:16:15.119 --> 01:16:17.680 concerned. Now you know what I think of polling, So who the hell 938 01:16:17.760 --> 01:16:21.960 knows, But as soon as we start laying votes down, we'll know or 939 01:16:21.960 --> 01:16:26.000 at least have a good idea, and then everyone can accuse everyone of switching 940 01:16:26.039 --> 01:16:31.119 stuff. But it's not some groundbreaking ad. And Google was like, nah, 941 01:16:31.479 --> 01:16:34.520 you can't, We're not going to run that, and they have reversed 942 01:16:34.560 --> 01:16:39.399 it. And I think their objection, right was over the term illegal immigrant. 943 01:16:39.479 --> 01:16:43.840 But if that is a hard and fast rule and then you reverse it, 944 01:16:43.880 --> 01:16:47.960 is it really a hard and fast rule? And that play because they 945 01:16:48.079 --> 01:16:51.000 wouldn't do it. It ended up everywhere. It was Saturday. It was 946 01:16:51.000 --> 01:16:56.000 the only thing on social media, it felt like, outside of the student 947 01:16:56.039 --> 01:17:03.560 protests. But they have since since reversed, and I think that that probably 948 01:17:04.199 --> 01:17:08.199 I don't know if it's going to move the needle, but it probably encapsulates 949 01:17:08.279 --> 01:17:12.560 what is the attitude of a lot of folks who have voted previously and are 950 01:17:12.560 --> 01:17:15.840 looking at what's going on? All right, eight eight eight nine three four 951 01:17:15.960 --> 01:17:23.079 seven eight seven four what is going on in wake Forest? I was just 952 01:17:23.119 --> 01:17:27.479 reading this story. We'll get into the details of that and the World's Worst 953 01:17:27.560 --> 01:17:30.600 Drunk Driver all coming up. Hang on, Well, there was a few 954 01:17:30.680 --> 01:17:34.800 videos. The majority of what you see as you see, you know, 955 01:17:35.439 --> 01:17:41.720 protesters, counter protesters, folks embracing the frat boys summer thing. And then 956 01:17:41.760 --> 01:17:47.520 you see one of the hamas protesters. This really like a bigger black lay 957 01:17:47.560 --> 01:17:53.560 a black girl, and people were screaming Lizzo at her. To be fair, 958 01:17:53.640 --> 01:17:57.600 she was screaming other stuff at them too, and you and like that 959 01:17:57.800 --> 01:18:00.560 was that was really how they played it out at a lot of the Southern 960 01:18:00.640 --> 01:18:04.920 universities. But if in one of the videos, while that's going on, 961 01:18:05.079 --> 01:18:10.920 the person with the with the camera kind of pans over to the people yelling 962 01:18:10.960 --> 01:18:15.520 at her, and one of the guys there makes a gesture like a monkey 963 01:18:15.600 --> 01:18:18.520 gesture. Right, Okay, And and I just want to be I want 964 01:18:18.520 --> 01:18:24.640 to be abundantly clear that is that is a racist thing. Okay, don't 965 01:18:24.640 --> 01:18:27.119 call and argue with me. You know that you know that it is. 966 01:18:27.960 --> 01:18:32.680 And and so I have no problem if the university says, look, that 967 01:18:32.800 --> 01:18:36.760 violates our code of conduct, which is what they're saying because they've opened investigation. 968 01:18:38.119 --> 01:18:43.239 But here's the issue. It's not just them. The Department of Education 969 01:18:43.600 --> 01:18:47.880 and others have also are also looking into it. Headlines abounded over the weekend. 970 01:18:48.319 --> 01:18:53.159 They'll just give you a smatter and here NBC News Ole Miss opens conduct 971 01:18:53.159 --> 01:18:57.439 investigations. This was before the we got the Department of Ed. Person weighed 972 01:18:57.439 --> 01:19:01.800 in, uh fraternity Boots broke oh who made monkey noises at ole Miss, 973 01:19:01.840 --> 01:19:06.279 a black Ole Miss protester. So I have no I have no problem from 974 01:19:06.319 --> 01:19:11.439 a code of conduct standpoint of that. That's just that's dumb. And yes, 975 01:19:12.720 --> 01:19:15.520 you know the thing that I say, is it show me real racism? 976 01:19:15.520 --> 01:19:19.359 And I'm there that is Is it the worst racism that i've ever know, 977 01:19:20.119 --> 01:19:27.199 and but still like that it's not I don't care if you're just a 978 01:19:27.279 --> 01:19:31.439 college kids, you know what's up? My problem is this If that is 979 01:19:31.520 --> 01:19:38.279 a problem, and I agree that it is. I think the part where 980 01:19:38.399 --> 01:19:41.840 like, did you see an MIT over the weekend? They were chanting and 981 01:19:41.840 --> 01:19:46.640 they one of the chants is half in English and half in Arabic, and 982 01:19:46.680 --> 01:19:51.760 so on the English side they would say something like, let's you know, 983 01:19:51.800 --> 01:19:56.840 we have to remove all the zion or no, all the Zionists need to 984 01:19:56.840 --> 01:20:02.239 be removed, and then in Arabic the translation actually that they would use is 985 01:20:02.840 --> 01:20:06.399 death to the Zionists, which is essentially death to the Jews, because I 986 01:20:06.439 --> 01:20:13.319 say, well, it's just about the Zionists, right, but that's Israel, 987 01:20:14.159 --> 01:20:16.279 right. So it's like, and I don't know if you if you 988 01:20:16.319 --> 01:20:20.159 know the population makeup of Israel, like, you're not hiding this, and 989 01:20:20.279 --> 01:20:26.520 yet that's not a code of conduct violation. Now, different universities are different. 990 01:20:26.560 --> 01:20:30.319 You can't compare what Old miss did or UNC did, what UCLA or 991 01:20:30.319 --> 01:20:34.319 god forbid Columbia did. But as soon as you know, outside powers start 992 01:20:34.399 --> 01:20:39.760 taking notice because this is unacceptable, then I expect the totality of it to 993 01:20:39.760 --> 01:20:45.399 be labeled unacceptable. But no, does that make sense, right, Punish 994 01:20:45.479 --> 01:20:47.039 the kid. If it's a violation of code of conduct, which it looks 995 01:20:47.079 --> 01:20:54.119 like it is, go do that. Do that within your university system. 996 01:20:54.159 --> 01:20:58.560 It's not illegal what he did. It's you could call it dumb, or 997 01:20:58.600 --> 01:21:02.520 you could call it racist, you call all of that stuff, but you 998 01:21:02.600 --> 01:21:06.479 can't then ignore Remember the remember the sign that dude was holding one or no, 999 01:21:06.479 --> 01:21:11.399 it was a woman holding a sign where there was Jewish counter protesters and 1000 01:21:11.439 --> 01:21:15.920 their sign says hey, Hamas, like here's your next victims. I don't 1001 01:21:15.960 --> 01:21:19.399 know, is that not a code of conduct violation? I'm very confused with 1002 01:21:19.479 --> 01:21:25.960 this stuff. So, uh anyway, let mean uh that that story and 1003 01:21:26.000 --> 01:21:30.319 then the one about the h the auditing firm that Trump's company, along with 1004 01:21:30.960 --> 01:21:34.439 literally hundreds and hundreds of other companies used. They're like one of the biggest 1005 01:21:34.479 --> 01:21:42.319 out there. Uh they they they got smacked hard with some some SEC violations 1006 01:21:42.359 --> 01:21:46.760 and whatnot. And the headlines all read Trump's auditing company, which it's like, 1007 01:21:48.279 --> 01:21:51.239 it's not his, it's the one that he used. That's like I 1008 01:21:51.359 --> 01:21:55.960 used to we used to have how many of you had MCI long Distance or 1009 01:21:56.000 --> 01:21:59.239 whatever, what was the big company that we found out with the Arthur Anderson 1010 01:21:59.279 --> 01:22:03.079 thing was just a big scam that world come or doesn't matter. But that's 1011 01:22:03.119 --> 01:22:09.840 like saying, if you had their phone service, you're somehow complicit. It's 1012 01:22:09.880 --> 01:22:13.800 just the dumbest thing. And the reason that they included Trump's is obvious. 1013 01:22:13.840 --> 01:22:17.960 But normally in a story like that, you wouldn't include one of their customers. 1014 01:22:18.000 --> 01:22:24.520 And the reason is is because from a journalism perspective, you would realize 1015 01:22:24.520 --> 01:22:28.840 that it might give the false impression that they were somehow complicit or had knowledge 1016 01:22:28.880 --> 01:22:32.319 in it. And they were very clear in their statement that Trump was not 1017 01:22:32.680 --> 01:22:36.520 or his company was not. They're not accused of anything here. They just 1018 01:22:36.640 --> 01:22:41.560 hired one of the big firms and turns out that there was shenanigans going on, 1019 01:22:42.079 --> 01:22:45.760 and there were hundreds and hundreds of other companies that also use this firm. 1020 01:22:45.600 --> 01:22:48.960 So but you got to do that to distract from the rest of the 1021 01:22:49.000 --> 01:22:53.680 insanity that's out there. Meanwhile, closer to home, I was interested in 1022 01:22:53.680 --> 01:22:58.359 this story because I think I was talking about neighborhoods and communities around the Triad 1023 01:22:58.399 --> 01:23:04.359 triangle where you know, the general impression is that it's it's gonna be a 1024 01:23:04.439 --> 01:23:08.560 much safer environment. It's very family oriented. They have a lot of stuff. 1025 01:23:08.600 --> 01:23:11.399 There are a lot of programs, sports for the kids, good schools, 1026 01:23:11.439 --> 01:23:14.159 all that. I think wake Forest is there. I mean, the 1027 01:23:14.159 --> 01:23:17.640 biggest beef I hear about wake Forest is the size of some of the developments 1028 01:23:17.640 --> 01:23:21.960 and then the traffic that ensues. Ross lives in wake Forest. What I 1029 01:23:23.000 --> 01:23:26.119 say, I say, just stop it stop. But what do you mean 1030 01:23:26.199 --> 01:23:29.319 stop the building? Stop it? Okay, Oh, we've had enough. 1031 01:23:29.880 --> 01:23:31.960 You're all out of it. We're out of buildings. Ross has no more 1032 01:23:32.000 --> 01:23:38.479 sun. So he's personally affected by one of these buildings. But but that's 1033 01:23:38.560 --> 01:23:40.720 that's, you know, in the grand scheme of things. That's a good 1034 01:23:40.760 --> 01:23:44.479 problem to have, if you know, to be known for, you know, 1035 01:23:44.560 --> 01:23:45.960 as far as bad things go, Like, it's just there's a lot 1036 01:23:45.960 --> 01:23:49.760 of it's busy because they keep building new stores and and play you know, 1037 01:23:49.840 --> 01:23:53.840 stuff for the stuff for families to go to. All right, fine, 1038 01:23:54.920 --> 01:23:58.000 However, they also have an event. I'm gonna be very careful because I 1039 01:23:58.479 --> 01:24:02.000 had a little slip on his it's called Friday Night on White Am I correct 1040 01:24:02.039 --> 01:24:04.079 on that? Yeah? So this is okay, And this is like a 1041 01:24:04.079 --> 01:24:08.119 lot of communities. This is something that happens during the you know, the 1042 01:24:08.159 --> 01:24:12.640 warmer months, and uh, here we go April, between April and September, 1043 01:24:12.680 --> 01:24:17.119 and basically downtown on White Street is like a little open air party. 1044 01:24:17.159 --> 01:24:21.880 They got concerts, they got you know, various stores are embracing it and 1045 01:24:21.920 --> 01:24:27.039 they're you know, people are strolling and walking and I I, admittedly I've 1046 01:24:27.079 --> 01:24:30.159 never been up to one of these events, but you know, it sounds 1047 01:24:30.199 --> 01:24:35.560 pretty similar, except now they're struggling because it's also being seen as a babysitter. 1048 01:24:36.199 --> 01:24:41.159 The town of wake Forest has announced they're considered implementing a curfew and other 1049 01:24:41.319 --> 01:24:45.239 changes because, according to the town, parents just drop off the big bus 1050 01:24:45.279 --> 01:24:49.840 loads of teenagers who then run around and cause problems. In fact, they 1051 01:24:49.880 --> 01:24:58.960 say that the unintended teens numbers has grown exponentially and that they're looking at a 1052 01:24:59.000 --> 01:25:01.600 curfew with this in this is what balls dealt with, right, because the 1053 01:25:01.600 --> 01:25:05.600 people had just dropped them, all the kids off, right, And and 1054 01:25:05.680 --> 01:25:09.640 when you're a teenager, a gathering point for you and all your friends. 1055 01:25:09.720 --> 01:25:13.399 I like, I get that we had we had a parking lot in town 1056 01:25:13.399 --> 01:25:15.000 when we were in high school and everyone kind of cruised the main street and 1057 01:25:15.079 --> 01:25:17.880 there's a parking lot we could pull in and talk to people, and you 1058 01:25:17.920 --> 01:25:21.800 know, you create your own fun. But we all we weren't running around 1059 01:25:23.039 --> 01:25:29.039 uh doing uh doing crime and stuff and uh harassing families and uh there are 1060 01:25:29.119 --> 01:25:34.119 multiple fights, merchants reporting uh teenagers walking in and just being obnoxious and stealing 1061 01:25:34.119 --> 01:25:38.479 stuff in some cases. And so they're gonna have to get into this. 1062 01:25:39.119 --> 01:25:41.840 And I got to admit, that's not at all what I thought of when 1063 01:25:41.880 --> 01:25:46.840 I pictured this thing in wake Forest. It's ridiculous the event or what it's 1064 01:25:46.880 --> 01:25:49.640 been. We've been like, you know, I live like right there. 1065 01:25:50.000 --> 01:25:54.640 Yeah, you're a very where you can hear it. It is super loud 1066 01:25:55.399 --> 01:26:00.439 and Lincoln has hard time sleeping a night. They're supposed to stop music a 1067 01:26:00.479 --> 01:26:03.720 nine o'clock and it just goes and it's super loud, and the traffic is 1068 01:26:03.720 --> 01:26:06.520 ever. There used to be a big parking lot over by the CVS on 1069 01:26:06.600 --> 01:26:10.880 White Street where you could park. Yeah, that is that's not existent anymore 1070 01:26:10.880 --> 01:26:14.279 because they're building what like like I mentioned, they just keep building, they 1071 01:26:14.279 --> 01:26:16.319 build it. They're building these new townhouses. So that's eliminated that parking. 1072 01:26:16.560 --> 01:26:20.119 So we had issues before people will just like park in front of our driveway 1073 01:26:20.520 --> 01:26:24.920 or park in front of our house, and it's just not a fan, 1074 01:26:25.159 --> 01:26:29.520 have not been a fan. And it's just now I'm concerned about Yeah, 1075 01:26:29.520 --> 01:26:32.680 the children, So we need to stop this event because of the safety of 1076 01:26:32.720 --> 01:26:38.119 the children. Has nothing to do with me, right, sleeping house are 1077 01:26:38.760 --> 01:26:41.600 yeah? Right now? Yeah? No, fine, man, you're a 1078 01:26:41.640 --> 01:26:45.359 big You've always been passionate for the kids, like the Lambo for the kids 1079 01:26:45.399 --> 01:26:46.720 and all this stuff. Yeah, yeah, you're a you're a fighter. 1080 01:26:47.760 --> 01:26:51.039 So all right, so you just think so it's not even the one issue. 1081 01:26:51.039 --> 01:26:57.479 You just want the whole thing to go completely. It's impossible to drive 1082 01:26:57.680 --> 01:27:00.039 past that way because they shut down all the roads to drive around the stupid 1083 01:27:00.039 --> 01:27:04.720 thing. Like I said, yeah, I'm not one who would generally go 1084 01:27:04.720 --> 01:27:08.439 to something like this for all the reasons, but the parking and oh the 1085 01:27:08.520 --> 01:27:12.399 parking across the driveway thing. Dude, No, it's so annoying. Who 1086 01:27:12.520 --> 01:27:15.159 who does well you have eyes? Right, you drove like people live here, 1087 01:27:15.159 --> 01:27:17.920 man, like people we live here. You know, my house is 1088 01:27:17.960 --> 01:27:25.000 across from an elementary school and car car line is an issue. Sometimes cause 1089 01:27:25.279 --> 01:27:30.079 the car line will line up and they're blocking not just my drive everyone's driveway. 1090 01:27:30.399 --> 01:27:32.840 Uh you know in there, some don't. Some parents do the thing 1091 01:27:32.920 --> 01:27:36.319 just like you wouldn't block an intersection where they kind of wait. But the 1092 01:27:36.399 --> 01:27:40.600 number of times where I I I even had a conversation with a woman and 1093 01:27:40.640 --> 01:27:43.319 she just looked at me like and then points to the school. It was 1094 01:27:43.359 --> 01:27:45.119 a nonverbal It was across point to the school, and I'm like, I 1095 01:27:45.159 --> 01:27:47.880 understand, you're here to pick up your kid. You're about to get rammed. 1096 01:27:48.560 --> 01:27:53.439 What is wrong with you? So all right? Never mind? Ross 1097 01:27:53.439 --> 01:27:57.079 got me on his angry train. I'm here for it. Raced Agic is 1098 01:27:57.119 --> 01:28:01.479 from the Weather Channel and also is probably annoyed when people partially across his driveway. 1099 01:28:01.520 --> 01:28:04.800 What's up there? Hey? But yeah, we had a spot to 1100 01:28:04.880 --> 01:28:08.960 where we park that we behaved ourselves most of the time. Oh good, 1101 01:28:09.000 --> 01:28:14.720 okay, yeah most of the time. Anyway. Really not gonna see no 1102 01:28:14.760 --> 01:28:17.079 a lot in the way of sunshine today. A little clouds, mist and 1103 01:28:17.119 --> 01:28:20.960 fog still be reported in some spots. This morning. Showers off to the 1104 01:28:20.960 --> 01:28:26.239 west started to come in slowly. I think the safternoon so widely scattered showers, 1105 01:28:26.239 --> 01:28:29.800 a few thundershowers in today's forecast, and I think that's going to be 1106 01:28:29.840 --> 01:28:33.159 the rule through maybe even the entire week, scattered areas of showers thunderstorms. 1107 01:28:33.159 --> 01:28:39.239 A change coming will be warmer temperatures at first and actually getting hot humid here 1108 01:28:39.680 --> 01:28:43.640 midweek and then cooling off a bit, so a few showers thunderstorms, especially 1109 01:28:43.720 --> 01:28:46.960 the safterdoona and this evening upper seventies to low eighties today, showers and thunderstorms. 1110 01:28:46.960 --> 01:28:50.880 Tonight, the stronger storms may have some downpours once again, and Tomorrow 1111 01:28:50.880 --> 01:28:56.000 will have some showers thunder showers midday through the afternoon, with some partial sun 1112 01:28:56.039 --> 01:28:59.479 mid to maybe some upper eighties, so starting to feel some of that heat. 1113 01:29:00.000 --> 01:29:02.479 It could be close to ninety in spots Wednesday and again in the afternoon, 1114 01:29:02.720 --> 01:29:06.560 some shower stutterstorms in the forecast before we start late week, maybe by 1115 01:29:06.680 --> 01:29:11.880 Friday of the weekend cooling off. I want to get to the weekend only 1116 01:29:11.880 --> 01:29:14.680 because I think it's going to be so pleasant around here that we may forget 1117 01:29:14.680 --> 01:29:18.399 all about this warm and increasingly warm temperatures and committing around. By the weekend, 1118 01:29:18.439 --> 01:29:20.640 we may only have highs in the seventies with maybe some of the low's 1119 01:29:20.680 --> 01:29:25.640 case seed down into the upper forties, especially from the Triad west into the 1120 01:29:25.680 --> 01:29:28.520 mountains. So I gotta get a nice little break from the on to get 1121 01:29:28.520 --> 01:29:31.199 off again. Shower stutterstorms this week, wait till the weekend, there should 1122 01:29:31.199 --> 01:29:34.079 be much improved. All right, thank you, sir, and we'll talk 1123 01:29:34.079 --> 01:29:38.039 tomorrow. Have we go on? Okay, we'll come back with Jeff Bellinger. 1124 01:29:38.079 --> 01:29:41.279 Hang on, well, good morning, casey. News of an April 1125 01:29:41.279 --> 01:29:45.439 slow down in job growth renewed investors hopes for interest rate cuts. Tech stocks 1126 01:29:45.520 --> 01:29:49.720 led a Friday rally on Wall Street, and the futures point to a continuation 1127 01:29:49.840 --> 01:29:53.760 of that rally. This morning. The now futures are up one hundred and 1128 01:29:53.800 --> 01:29:57.720 sixty three points. We get more job market news little over an hour from 1129 01:29:57.760 --> 01:30:00.720 now the conference board. We're released at some lament trends index. It's a 1130 01:30:00.760 --> 01:30:04.359 forward looking index and it may offer some clues to the face of hiring in 1131 01:30:04.399 --> 01:30:10.399 the months ahead. Warren Buffett says corporations can expect their federal tax bills to 1132 01:30:10.600 --> 01:30:15.399 rise. Buffett spoke over the weekend at Berkshire Hathaway's annual meeting in Omaha. 1133 01:30:15.720 --> 01:30:20.119 He said Washington is preparing for major tax negotiations next year, lawmakers are going 1134 01:30:20.159 --> 01:30:26.119 to be looking to shrink the federal deficit. Buffett also advocates higher taxes for 1135 01:30:26.319 --> 01:30:30.720 wealthy individuals. Starbucks' former chief executive has some advice to the coffee chain, 1136 01:30:30.760 --> 01:30:35.239 which posted the first decline in sale since the early days of the pandemic. 1137 01:30:35.520 --> 01:30:41.720 In a LinkedIn post, Howard Schaltz urged Starbucks to fix its operations and own 1138 01:30:41.800 --> 01:30:46.720 the shortcoming without the slightest semblance of an excuse. Directors of Paramount Global reportedly 1139 01:30:46.800 --> 01:30:53.279 decided over the weekend to consider all buyout offers, and exclusive window for sky 1140 01:30:53.399 --> 01:30:57.239 Dance to negotiate a deal expired on Friday.

You Casey. Employees of Daimler Truck ratified a new four 1143 01:31:05.840 --> 01:31:11.600 year contract. Negotiators for Daimler Truck from the United Auto Workers hammered out the 1144 01:31:11.640 --> 01:31:15.960 deal last month, among other things, that will raise workers wages more than 1145 01:31:15.000 --> 01:31:19.199 twenty five percent. This is a pack that covers workers in North Carolina, 1146 01:31:19.319 --> 01:31:23.960 Tennessee, and Georgia. Casey all right, thank you sir, appreciate it. 1147 01:31:24.000 --> 01:31:26.800 We'll talk tomorrow. Okay, have a good date, take care. 1148 01:31:26.880 --> 01:31:30.640 Right there you go. Jeff Bellinger, CaCO Dave Radio program. Let me 1149 01:31:30.840 --> 01:31:39.039 quick update on this. So you remember the video of the student in Winston 1150 01:31:39.079 --> 01:31:46.960 Salem smacking that teacher a couple times, and actually there was another incident in 1151 01:31:46.960 --> 01:31:51.439 the January, February and then April was that. So like that's two dips 1152 01:31:51.439 --> 01:31:58.640 at the well where a student has put hands on a teacher and the first 1153 01:31:58.680 --> 01:32:01.319 time wasn't enough. So now obviously with the viral video, the second time 1154 01:32:01.880 --> 01:32:10.279 that got people, that got people noticing, well the student is now charged 1155 01:32:10.600 --> 01:32:16.359 as an adult with like some big time felonies. Yeah. And I did 1156 01:32:16.359 --> 01:32:20.319 see some some of the you know, defund the police people who are upset. 1157 01:32:20.359 --> 01:32:25.439 They're like this is this is the prison pipeline all this, and it's 1158 01:32:25.479 --> 01:32:29.760 like, I, you know what, okay, right, because it also 1159 01:32:29.840 --> 01:32:33.079 tells other students all of the crap that you can get away with in our 1160 01:32:33.119 --> 01:32:42.880 modern educational system does not include physically assaulting a teacher. And you know, 1161 01:32:43.000 --> 01:32:46.000 we've had some crazy videos. We had that one here and then we had 1162 01:32:46.800 --> 01:32:49.760 I remember that big student who had his his what was it, like, 1163 01:32:49.800 --> 01:32:56.119 a play a little handheld gaming system taken away and pummeled that teacher out in 1164 01:32:56.119 --> 01:33:00.159 the hallway. It was a female teacher, right, So yeah, I'm 1165 01:33:00.199 --> 01:33:01.840 okay with this that people are like, Oh, Jim O'Neill's just doing this 1166 01:33:01.880 --> 01:33:05.239 because he's running for office. Your mind, he's in the runoff, which 1167 01:33:05.279 --> 01:33:11.399 is what next week. Next week is the runoff for lieutenant governor. But 1168 01:33:12.439 --> 01:33:16.199 I don't know that that's like Jim O'Neill is Jim O'Neill, Like he's been 1169 01:33:16.239 --> 01:33:20.159 around politics enough here you kind of know where he stands, and I think 1170 01:33:20.199 --> 01:33:24.920 people are outraged at that. So, yes, he is a seventeen year 1171 01:33:24.920 --> 01:33:30.279 old facing among you know, felony assault and kidnapping. I believe it's one 1172 01:33:30.279 --> 01:33:33.800 of the charges, which again this goes back to not letting somebody leave a 1173 01:33:33.880 --> 01:33:41.439 situation. Is that strong compared to what other students have been charged with recently? 1174 01:33:41.560 --> 01:33:45.000 Yeah, but I think that that speaks to the cowardice of some of 1175 01:33:45.000 --> 01:33:51.439 the other school districts and other prosecutors. You can't have the students thinking that 1176 01:33:51.560 --> 01:33:58.119 they can sucker punch teachers with minimal like that's so over the line. So 1177 01:33:58.239 --> 01:34:03.279 over the line. So yeah, I'm good with this. And you know, 1178 01:34:03.800 --> 01:34:06.800 I don't know if he's got other charges. I don't know what the 1179 01:34:06.800 --> 01:34:11.399 background is. I've seen pictures of him throwing gang signs up, but like 1180 01:34:12.720 --> 01:34:15.239 that's social media, so you know, that doesn't always mean somebody's in a 1181 01:34:15.279 --> 01:34:19.399 gang. So I don't know that, but I do know that if you're 1182 01:34:19.439 --> 01:34:25.079 another student in Winston Salem, you're another student in North Carolina, and you're 1183 01:34:25.079 --> 01:34:30.319 following this story and you've ever even thought about smoking a teacher, just know 1184 01:34:30.399 --> 01:34:34.079 that these are the consequences that may come come along with it, And obviously 1185 01:34:34.079 --> 01:34:39.039 your mileage will harry depending on which county you're in and who's doing the prosecuting
