WEBVTT 1 00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:18.440 All right, good morning everybody, and welcome. It is six o seven 2 00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:27.839 here on the CaCO Day Radio program. And we got we got a crap 3 00:00:27.839 --> 00:00:33.119 ton of bridge stuff. Like I said yesterday when people were a lot of 4 00:00:33.159 --> 00:00:36.880 people send them email, why aren't you deep diving this? And the answer 5 00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:42.640 is, we kind of had limited information. We had a lot of speculation, 6 00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:46.880 and uh, you know, who knows if it's true. I think 7 00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:58.479 that people asking the question if perhaps the cargo ship in question, which the 8 00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:04.560 story is it lost power, it lost control systems stopping a thousand or one 9 00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:10.319 thousand feet or nine hundred and seventy feet or whatever. That thing is a 10 00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:18.319 ship. It doesn't do it on a dime. Right, So there's there's 11 00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:26.000 a certain procedure that I was, Uh, they had a pretty good artist. 12 00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:30.359 Here's the problem. So yesterday, I don't know that it's a problem. 13 00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:36.840 It was easily identifiable, but the amount of threads on Twitter where somebody's 14 00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:40.400 like hi, and then they would, you know, they'd state some credential. 15 00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:45.879 I'm a twenty year Navy man and and I you know, I have 16 00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:48.560 some expertise on this, and then there you know, they'll be the little 17 00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:52.599 finger to point you know, for the thread of their little thread emoji, 18 00:01:52.640 --> 00:02:00.760 and then it was total nonsense. And there obviously this was people who were 19 00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:07.519 mocking others who were claiming to have inside information or background, but the information 20 00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.560 they were providing clearly wasn't adding up. And then it just it launched into 21 00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:16.919 the extreme. However, amidst that, there was some there was some good 22 00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:22.240 stuff. And I think there's a couple things not just like I couldn't explain 23 00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:28.719 the process for stopping a ship that like that, although I do occasionally watch 24 00:02:28.840 --> 00:02:32.719 yacht videos on YouTube, so I do feel like I could, you know, 25 00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:37.960 I could pilot a super Yatzo. You know there's that Probably not, 26 00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:44.520 but you know, somebody reminded me of something that he is a known issue, 27 00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:47.199 and this is why I think it's fair to ask questions. One of 28 00:02:47.240 --> 00:02:54.919 the problems that that is that is a constant problem, is a known problem 29 00:02:55.719 --> 00:03:04.879 and is something that has befallen many ships. Is Iran. What Iran does, 30 00:03:05.039 --> 00:03:13.759 And if you don't know what Iran does, Iran has well, they 31 00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:21.199 do a few things that we know of. One they use navigational markers but 32 00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:28.639 with incorrect information, so you'll have a you'll have a ship that is passing 33 00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:36.840 through by Iran and if the the the who the rebels don't get them into 34 00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:42.479 the Persian Gulf because they're more on the you know, the Red Sea side, 35 00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:51.439 but uh, they will literally send out incorrect navigational markers, right so 36 00:03:51.800 --> 00:03:58.000 and this happens this is this also happens in Yemen, but Iran is the 37 00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:02.240 main culprit. And I guess if you just have to visualize in Yemen's on 38 00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:05.800 one side, on the Red Sea side, and then Iran obviously on the 39 00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:12.400 Persian Gulf side. But they they exert a lot of control and what they 40 00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:18.600 have accomplished in the past, especially around what is that bondhar Abbas, which 41 00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:23.720 is kind of the big city right across from Dubai, they have literally trick 42 00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:30.920 ships into either running aground or entering Iranian waters or getting close enough that they 43 00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:35.079 can make that claim on the international front, and then they literally just seize 44 00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:41.920 the ship. So like that's a known thing. Also, we suspect that 45 00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:48.480 there are other digital attacks that they have launched against ships, not just in 46 00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:58.240 an intentionally inaccurate navigational signal, but literally screwing with ships systems. And look, 47 00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:04.480 I'm not some cyberte dude who understands how the all the weakness points there 48 00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:10.680 and also how to combat it. But it's a known thing. China has 49 00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:15.800 been accused of this too around the Parcel islands and areas in the South China 50 00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:23.839 Sea, although they China exerts by by dumping sand on top of those reefs 51 00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:30.079 and claiming those are sovereign Chinese islands that they've been able to extend their two 52 00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:35.480 hundred mile maritime border basically to the Philippine coast. Right, nobody in the 53 00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:40.439 world recognizes that, but China says it's a thing, and they've suspected that 54 00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:48.920 China's mess with stuff. So people wondering aloud about that, you're not some 55 00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:55.519 crazy conspiracy theorist. Right as I was processing this information yesday, I'm thinking 56 00:05:55.560 --> 00:06:02.519 about reading those stories about what they've done to basically sabotage ships or sabotage at 57 00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:09.800 least ships navigational plans UH for the purpose of seizing and or you know, 58 00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:15.639 injuring essentially the UH the shipping abilities of countries and people Iran doesn't like. 59 00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:20.360 And they continue to do it on top of what's going on with the rebels. 60 00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:26.959 They're in Yemen to a wide variety of ships ship's flag from all over 61 00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:35.000 the world. Now, according to the White House, they say that there 62 00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:45.800 is no indicator of that. Uh In Instead, basically they lost power to 63 00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:49.120 portions of the ship. And even though they went through this, you know, 64 00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:54.240 the the checklist quote doing everything that they can and they know that they 65 00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:59.480 should do to stop it. Uh, it was, it was there just 66 00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:03.279 wasn't time based on the sizes of the ship. So then I also struggle 67 00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:13.000 with would the US government acknowledge if that was a thing, right, because 68 00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:16.120 like you almost don't want you don't want to give credit if something like that 69 00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:20.759 happened. And you know, it's the whole thing you see in movies every 70 00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:25.399 time about well, you know people, people can understand stuff, but people 71 00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:29.319 in a group are dumbt panicky animals and and I don't know, so I 72 00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:33.680 understand one at a time when people's trust in government is so low, where 73 00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:42.079 the thought may cross their minds. And you know, watching watching a video 74 00:07:42.519 --> 00:07:46.879 of the ship just barreling in there, right, which is not something you 75 00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:51.240 see very often. There's some there are videos of big ships literally running aground. 76 00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:58.720 Uh. There's one that basically I can't remember how far it got on 77 00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:03.639 shore, but in Turkey a cargo ship that kept coming and watching the people 78 00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:09.040 on the dock is crazy, man, because even though visibly it doesn't look 79 00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:13.439 like it's moving very fast, it's so much weight that even at a small 80 00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:18.079 speed can be absolutely devastating. I mentioned the cruise ship slamming into the other 81 00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:24.839 cruise ship down in Saint Martin or whatever that was. So yeah, now 82 00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:30.560 I will tell you what the President said. He held a press conference yesterday 83 00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:37.000 and it went interestingly. We do have some audio from that, and you 84 00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:41.200 know, we'll go from there. And that's obviously. The President also was 85 00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:46.720 down in Raleigh yesterday, him and the VP. I couldn't swing the one 86 00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:50.799 hundred thousand dollars fundraiser private fundraiser fee, so I didn't get to go. 87 00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:56.320 Ross also unable to attend. We just didn't have it in the show budget, 88 00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:58.879 so you know, that was part of what they were doing. But 89 00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:05.360 we also also made a couple of visits and the people have been harassing the 90 00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:11.840 Raleigh City Council every meeting. Decided to show up, so that went interesting. 91 00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:18.960 And then the spokesperson for the President, mss k JB, she was 92 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:26.919 doing a radio interview on WBT yesterday and that didn't go well. Was not 93 00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:33.559 with their friend Pete Calender. But I'm assuming he's insanely jealous because it's getting 94 00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:37.279 pub and we'll talk to him on Friday about that. So what did the 95 00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:41.720 White House have to say? What did the Mayor of Baltimore have to say? 96 00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:46.559 We'll get into that and lots more. It's going to be a busy 97 00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:52.120 show at is six seventeen hang on phone number eight eight eight nine three four 98 00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:58.399 seven eight seven four. Now, just because I said, you know, 99 00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:03.120 obviously people on the internet going, I don't know if I trust the government 100 00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:11.600 to tell me if there was some sort of sabotage and and or also literally 101 00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:18.080 I could point to news stories from all the major outlets where transportation and global 102 00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:22.879 security officials literally talk about how this is standard practice in some parts of the 103 00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:30.200 world. So, you know, people then being told, you know, 104 00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:35.039 shut up conspiracy theorists. I don't think that was fair, that being said. 105 00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:43.840 That being said, it didn't stop there, and we got some we 106 00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:48.919 got some crazy town stuff we're gonna have to get into. But if we're 107 00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:52.679 gonna start with crazy, let's start with the the king of it. The 108 00:10:54.120 --> 00:11:05.480 White House here's the President reminiscing kind of about this particular bridge and his image 109 00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:11.639 of regular Joe on the Amtrak, which has been a hallmark of his political 110 00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:20.840 life for decades. And in those decades there have been numerous times where he's 111 00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:24.000 telling a story. I remember he was talking. He was talking about a 112 00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:31.000 conductor like this conductor and very specific dated memories of him, but the dude 113 00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:35.519 had already long retired. I think in one instance he was talking about a 114 00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:41.120 guy who was dead right, and you know, people chalked it up to 115 00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:46.279 he's eighty and I you know, you can see that on simple one offs 116 00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:48.600 like I do it. I do it all the time where I'm like, 117 00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:52.399 hey, remember this thing we talked about, you know, six months ago, 118 00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:54.799 and then I find out it was like two years ago on the show, 119 00:11:54.919 --> 00:12:01.200 so it blends together. However, this is not a simple date issue 120 00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:05.720 here. He is, Oh, all right, hold on, all right, 121 00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:09.919 here we go. This is this is Biden talking a waxing nostalgic abrout, 122 00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:16.759 said Bridge. Why am I not hearing this? Oh yeah, that 123 00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:22.159 is all right, Russ, go check the other Yeah, because somebody messed 124 00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:26.759 with my next gen too. I noticed this morning. I just didn't know 125 00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:31.519 if they tweaked played with that. All right, we're gonna have to have 126 00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:37.159 it as guys. It's at least I knew somebody did it. This one, 127 00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:39.840 I can't visually tell, all right. So Ross is checking on his 128 00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:43.559 end, all right. So so he's talking about this bridge. He's talking 129 00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:48.200 also about his commute into d C, which you know, from Delaware into 130 00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:50.960 d C. He made a big deal about riding the trains into there. 131 00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:56.120 And obviously you're going to commute from Delaware to DC, you're going to pass 132 00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:03.000 through the city of Baltimore. In fact, how many I've on several occasions, 133 00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:09.679 just due to the insane pricing, I've actually flown into d C for 134 00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:15.639 events and flown into BWI, which is the Baltimore Airport, and and then 135 00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:18.440 you know, you sit in a van or a taxi for an hour going 136 00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:22.840 down to DC and somehow still save money. So I'm not arguing that he 137 00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:28.559 passed through there. Here though, is what he said about one thirty container 138 00:13:28.600 --> 00:13:33.279 ship struck the Francis Scott's Key Bridge, which I've been over many many times 139 00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:39.480 commuting from the state of Delaware a trainer by car. All Right, that 140 00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:48.320 sounds innocuous enough, righting driving a car or on a train. He has 141 00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:58.440 been over this bridge probably he probably couldn't even count how many times, except 142 00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:03.960 there's no rail line on the bridge all right now, obviously just commuter rail 143 00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:09.960 pass through Baltimore. Yes it does, though not really in that area. 144 00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:13.480 Have any of you ever done the train from New York to DC. I 145 00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:16.679 did it once just because I'm like, oh, this will be interesting, 146 00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:22.399 and it wasn't that interesting. So sorry, I don't know, man, 147 00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:26.679 some about the Amtrak's prices where it's like, so wait a second, I'm 148 00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:30.679 not saving money and I'm adding like seven hours to my trip. Why would 149 00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:33.480 I do that? But I don't know. Maybe just to say it once 150 00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:37.240 that being said, you didn't go over this bridge, and you never went 151 00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:41.120 over this bridge. It has never had rail line on it. It's a 152 00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:48.080 commuter freight or otherwise, and so no, no, you didn't. And 153 00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:54.960 that became quickly obvious to people who even had seen the video where you can 154 00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:58.720 clearly see that there's four lanes of traffic, but there is not rail line, 155 00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:03.720 not even on a on a secondary level like some of these bridges have. 156 00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:11.240 Florida Slow Down. I mean, I can't get to all of these 157 00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:15.759 stories. Yeah it used to be you could. Yeah, you get average 158 00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:20.799 one a day, and even then sometimes you look at and go, you 159 00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:24.039 know, I don't really know that that lives up to Florida man's standards. 160 00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:30.600 Nobody's naked, there's not a gator. The bac is within you know, 161 00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:37.279 arrange where you'd probably survive. So but holy hell, they are knocking it 162 00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:39.720 out the park. This week, we'll have a little back to back on 163 00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:50.080 that, and one involves Popeyes and then the other one a nude beach And 164 00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:54.559 where's this Jensen badgens Don of no where Jensen beaches. I expect it's on 165 00:15:54.600 --> 00:16:00.159 the coast, but it really doesn't matter. So we get to those because 166 00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:06.039 it's the gift that keeps on given. And we'll do that coming up here 167 00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:11.960 on the CaCO Day Radio program. All right, let's get back to the 168 00:16:11.080 --> 00:16:18.360 bridge and specifically some of the audio, and let's start with the Mayor of 169 00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:26.799 Baltimore, who I admittedly I haven't been following who the Mayor of Baltimore is 170 00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:32.879 since obviously we had the you know, the famous statement by the former Mayor 171 00:16:32.919 --> 00:16:40.960 of Baltimore when she was watching let's see a dollar tree and a CVS. 172 00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:44.799 Basically, you know, when they were just running around mostly peacefully burning things, 173 00:16:45.720 --> 00:16:48.840 and she basically what was her order. It was something like just you 174 00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:51.360 know, just let them have time to get it out of their system, 175 00:16:51.519 --> 00:16:53.360 which, as you can imagine if you're a business owner, is not what 176 00:16:53.399 --> 00:16:57.799 you want to hear something along those lines. And then we figured out that 177 00:16:57.879 --> 00:17:03.000 both she and the d were corrupt. And was it the mayor who was 178 00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:06.359 also selling her book? Was that the thing with her right? She wrote 179 00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:11.799 like this BS kids book, and then the schools ended up buying like four 180 00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:18.519 hundred thousand copies that they never used or something. There was so much insanity. 181 00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:22.160 So admittedly I haven't really followed up on on on who the mayor is. 182 00:17:22.920 --> 00:17:27.640 It's a younger dude, I guess in the grand scheme of politics. 183 00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:36.079 It's a strike me. It struck me as pretty young anyway. So you 184 00:17:36.079 --> 00:17:40.720 know, he's doing all the interviews, holding the press conference, and we 185 00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:45.960 have audio of when he called into CNN. Look, I get it, 186 00:17:45.119 --> 00:17:56.680 but also it's not the way the news works. And so I'm not mad 187 00:17:56.720 --> 00:17:57.920 at him. I'm not mad at anybody. I just think it's kind of 188 00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:03.839 a dumb request when you consider human nature. But here he is speaking with 189 00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:06.880 CNN, Well, it was something out of an action movie. It's something 190 00:18:06.920 --> 00:18:11.400 you never think you would see. And being here right now looking at it 191 00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:15.000 is even more surreal and it just makes you think about again those families, 192 00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:19.480 those individuals that were on that bridge, those folks they even on that vessel 193 00:18:19.960 --> 00:18:25.440 even more because no one should have to endure. And I'm going to be 194 00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:29.680 the first to ask that seeing and everyone else stop showing the video. No 195 00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:36.759 one needs to see a possibility of their family membering severely injured otherwise over and 196 00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:41.319 over and over again, because it's just traumatizing our community. And look, 197 00:18:41.359 --> 00:18:47.000 I don't disagree with that obviously. You know the estimate, I believe it's 198 00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:53.559 six six individuals described as construction workers who were working on the bridge. Police 199 00:18:53.799 --> 00:19:00.680 able to read the room and some other workers and see what was going on 200 00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:03.839 it was about to happen, and thankfully we're successfully able to stop people from 201 00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:11.079 driving onto the bridge, so it could have been far worse. But I 202 00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:17.279 I don't know how that's gonna pan out for you, like nine to eleven. 203 00:19:18.359 --> 00:19:22.839 So with that in mind, again, I just I understand, like 204 00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:27.440 emotionally, you're sitting there watching that over and over. You're the mayor. 205 00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:36.759 But I guess that's gonna come down to communication the city has with and rescuers 206 00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:41.519 have with members of the family members. Also, you know, there are 207 00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:48.039 people who when something like this happens, they don't hear from a family member, 208 00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:52.440 They might be estranged, and then a thought starts percolating that maybe their 209 00:19:52.519 --> 00:19:56.319 loved one was on the bridge, so they're calling police and and it's just 210 00:19:56.359 --> 00:20:06.039 the nature of what happens with stuff like this, so again I understand it. 211 00:20:06.079 --> 00:20:11.440 And then it turned into some other discussion where like somehow the Feds are 212 00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:15.680 going to pay for the cost of this, and I don't know that now's 213 00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:18.799 the time to be sitting here and having a discussion about rebuilding it. You 214 00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:26.839 have people who are already using this situation for the we there's no way we 215 00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:33.640 can It can never be named the Francis Scott Key Bridge again that yesterday literally 216 00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:37.839 there was one of the city offices was refusing to call it that. So 217 00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:41.079 it was confusing as they had people had to clarify that which bridge are you 218 00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:45.640 talking about, Well, the one that collapsed, you mean Francis got Key. 219 00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:48.880 Well, many in the community don't refer to that because of his troubling 220 00:20:49.000 --> 00:20:56.920 past. And there to help is AP. Yes, that's right. Ap 221 00:20:56.359 --> 00:21:00.799 decided that, you know, yesterday was a good day to start giving us 222 00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:07.039 a biography of Francis Scott Key as an aside story to this. And how 223 00:21:07.079 --> 00:21:10.799 troubling it is that a bridge is named after the author of The Star Spangled 224 00:21:10.839 --> 00:21:18.839 Banner. This is a thing that goes back to twenty sixteen. And you 225 00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:21.799 know, they get into the hey, don't you know about some of the 226 00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:26.400 later verses, And I would argue that the vast majority of Americans couldn't tell 227 00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:32.200 you a single word past the you know, the first part that you always 228 00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:37.880 hear at sporting events, And it's largely due to the fact that people recognize 229 00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:47.240 that there are references in later verses too to slavery. At least there's a 230 00:21:47.319 --> 00:21:52.160 strong argument. And the reason I say that is because the terminology they use 231 00:21:52.240 --> 00:22:02.839 in the third verse says hireling and slave. But that is actually a reference 232 00:22:03.559 --> 00:22:15.200 in most historians' minds to British soldiers and them being impressed at the the ferocity 233 00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:19.079 of the troops that they were encountering. I mean, most people probably don't 234 00:22:19.079 --> 00:22:27.000 even know like when that thing came about and which battle they're even referencing. 235 00:22:27.400 --> 00:22:32.160 But there's an intentional reason in some people's mind where we don't use the third 236 00:22:32.240 --> 00:22:37.359 verse. But mostly even the objections to it are not historically accurate. But 237 00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:41.559 that's so much of this stuff. So for the Associated Press to decide literally 238 00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:45.200 on the day that it happened we got to rehash that was just disgusting. 239 00:22:48.599 --> 00:22:52.640 But they're not wrong. I for what, I don't believe that that thing 240 00:22:52.680 --> 00:23:00.240 will be that they'll call it that anymore. When activists didn't get way, 241 00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:04.039 they were bothered. Now the opportunities here and they can fly under they don't 242 00:23:04.079 --> 00:23:07.519 even have to argue, well their third verse. Some people interpret it as 243 00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:11.759 blah blah blah, right, like they can sit there and say, why 244 00:23:11.759 --> 00:23:15.440 don't we rename the bridge after you know the victims or you know some other 245 00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:21.160 moniker that emerges in this story? You watch this is this is going to 246 00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:22.119 be a thing? You know, by the way, you're also going to 247 00:23:22.160 --> 00:23:30.640 pay for it, And I don't know. I'm assuming the ship has insurance, 248 00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:33.720 so like I don't know how it works. It's not going to be 249 00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:37.759 cheap. I saw some of the estimates. And remember those are government estimates, 250 00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:41.440 so whatever they tell you something's gonna cost probably gonna cost a hell of 251 00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:47.200 a lot more. And in the midst of this going on, with the 252 00:23:47.240 --> 00:23:52.000 mayor out there doing interviews, Joe Biden out there talking about how he wrote 253 00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:55.400 he used to ride a train across this bridge which has no train tracks, 254 00:23:56.559 --> 00:24:00.400 and also misidentifying the number of victims. I mean, the number was hard 255 00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:06.279 and held at six even from I think the time our show was getting over 256 00:24:06.359 --> 00:24:12.000 yesterday, and on multiple occasions he said eight, which then causes a flurry 257 00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:15.960 of questions, and he wasn't taking questions. At the end of the press 258 00:24:17.000 --> 00:24:21.799 conference, he stands there for just, you know, like one millisecond too 259 00:24:21.880 --> 00:24:26.000 much, question gets yelled, and it's a question about Israel. I know, 260 00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:30.559 if you saw this. The US didn't intervene, and yet another wildly 261 00:24:30.599 --> 00:24:38.720 biased UN motion, and by the US's official position being not to intervene, 262 00:24:38.759 --> 00:24:45.680 Israel canceled some state visits, and so they were asking about something that just 263 00:24:45.759 --> 00:24:48.519 happened. He looked confused, He said, didn't want to talk about that 264 00:24:48.599 --> 00:24:51.920 right then, and then he just roombued on out of there while his staff 265 00:24:51.960 --> 00:24:57.119 did the thing where they run into the room screaming and never stopping yelling, 266 00:24:57.480 --> 00:25:00.559 right, And this is an intentional tactic. So they want to clear the 267 00:25:00.599 --> 00:25:06.200 president who maybe in the midst of poorly answering a question of protect him from 268 00:25:06.200 --> 00:25:10.039 that. It's not one guy, it's not one press person who gets up 269 00:25:10.039 --> 00:25:12.000 on the stage and goes, all right, that's enough, we got another 270 00:25:12.039 --> 00:25:15.000 appointment to get to and then leaves it at that, knowing full well it's 271 00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:18.759 a room of adults who will have hurt it, may choose to ignore it. 272 00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:22.319 They yell, and there's multiple of them. Time to go, Time 273 00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:26.359 to go, Time to go, And that is intentional because they are so 274 00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:30.119 fearful that Biden's in the middle of saying something that might be captured on a 275 00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:36.079 microphone, they have to avert that as well. So then that's what you 276 00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:42.599 saw following that. But it was not Miss Jean Pierre doing the yelling, 277 00:25:44.119 --> 00:25:48.160 rather travel staff, and that's because Jean Pierre was doing radio interviews yesterday and 278 00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:52.920 one of them happened to be on WBT in Charlotte, and let's just say 279 00:25:53.039 --> 00:26:00.000 didn't go well, didn't go well at all, And it wasn't because the 280 00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:03.680 host did something so incredibly out of left field. I'll let you hear it. 281 00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:08.079 We'll play We'll play the basically the whole damn thing. Uh, the 282 00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:12.960 problem with you know, minus the little greeting stuff. But where Jean Pierre 283 00:26:14.039 --> 00:26:18.640 actually had issues because it wasn't the totality of it. There were other questions. 284 00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:25.279 But the idea that she can't fathom these questions being presented to her is 285 00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:30.079 I I failed to understand how that woman has a job. And then I 286 00:26:30.160 --> 00:26:33.240 realized it's just because there is no standard, right, the same standard that 287 00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:37.480 any of Trump's people were held to. The makri on SNL, which is 288 00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:45.240 admit, look, admittedly the Sean Spicer Melissa McCarthy stuff with with the mobile 289 00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:51.720 lectern and like, dude, that was that was funny. And uh, 290 00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:56.119 I don't have they even had anybody imitate Jean Pierre. I don't know if 291 00:26:56.119 --> 00:27:00.400 I've seen a skit where she's portrayed. She's sure as hell, isn't portrayed, 292 00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:03.440 is incompetent. Yet every time you see her, you would you would 293 00:27:03.519 --> 00:27:08.200 draw that conclusion. And if there's never going to be any pushback, then 294 00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:12.880 it's never going to be a problem. Where so and so screwed up, 295 00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:19.079 and it negatively impacted the administration because they're just not critical enough. And and 296 00:27:19.200 --> 00:27:23.880 once the smallest little uphill battle presents, she's not able to handle it. 297 00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:29.480 You'll be the judge coming up here in just a moment. Now. Lastly, 298 00:27:29.640 --> 00:27:33.640 on the bridge, I said that I gave the president ninety nine point 299 00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:40.200 nine percent chance he's full of crap on the train thing. And and then 300 00:27:40.240 --> 00:27:42.799 I thought, Ross, do you remember Doc Brown's train in Back to the 301 00:27:42.839 --> 00:27:48.839 Future three? Okay, all right, that's my point. That's my point 302 00:27:48.839 --> 00:27:53.720 one percent there. Maybe maybe that does exist the Book of Secrets. But 303 00:27:53.759 --> 00:27:57.519 other than that, no, there's there's no chance, not even in the 304 00:27:57.519 --> 00:28:03.440 AOC magic war water train scenario from the Green New Deal. So he just 305 00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:08.440 lied, and other than being reported, it's never going to be addressed. 306 00:28:08.480 --> 00:28:12.759 And I have to think of you as Jean Pierre about it. She probably 307 00:28:12.759 --> 00:28:17.720 would flip out. We'll listen to doing that next here on the CaCO Day 308 00:28:17.839 --> 00:28:23.000 radio program, my wife and I both we ended up mildly see. All 309 00:28:23.079 --> 00:28:26.440 right, good morning and welcome back. It is six point fifty four. 310 00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:37.759 Wow, we have a new human right that is this is a doozy. 311 00:28:37.920 --> 00:28:44.240 How many of you tend to limit ordering from the food delivery apps because you 312 00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:49.000 looked at your receipt one time and you went, this is insane, right, 313 00:28:49.680 --> 00:28:55.039 And here's the thing that's not a knock on the people who deliver the 314 00:28:55.039 --> 00:29:00.519 food to the restaurant who prepares it. Some things just mathematically aren't gonna math 315 00:29:00.559 --> 00:29:06.960 for everybody, do you know what I'm saying? Like, and then how 316 00:29:06.960 --> 00:29:10.319 many of you do this? And and it's tougher for me because I like, 317 00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:12.839 I live alone, but like, if I'm going to order from one 318 00:29:12.839 --> 00:29:17.039 of the food delivery apps and I know I'm gonna already eat like an eight 319 00:29:17.079 --> 00:29:21.279 dollars charge plus I I tip I. I you know, people are providing 320 00:29:21.319 --> 00:29:23.720 a service for me. I don't want to get off my lazy butt, 321 00:29:23.880 --> 00:29:27.799 and there is value there and I recognize that. However, I also feel 322 00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:32.559 like I'm getting screwed if I don't order like two or three meals. And 323 00:29:32.599 --> 00:29:36.799 it's I know it's I know that that's false logic. I understand that, 324 00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:41.640 I understand that it's borders, sunk cost fallacy and stuff like, but I 325 00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:44.799 just feel like, if I'm already gonna get hit for in the delivery charge 326 00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:48.759 is probably you know it's gonna the first part of it's the you know, 327 00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:53.440 the bad part, and and and then there's slow growth based on the on 328 00:29:53.519 --> 00:29:56.279 the price there. But you just want to feel you're getting your value out 329 00:29:56.319 --> 00:30:00.440 of it. So as a result, I'll li them at ordering off food 330 00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:04.599 delivery apps. I'll you know, do a better job with making sure I 331 00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:07.319 have groceries in the house. I cook from time to time, but I'm 332 00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:11.240 just and I like to cook, but a lot of times I'll cook one 333 00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:15.680 thing and then just eat to eat a bunch of leftovers. It's a time 334 00:30:15.759 --> 00:30:22.400 saver for me. I don't mind it. But with the food delivery apps, 335 00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:27.480 I'm gonna get out and do it. And sometimes I'm not because I 336 00:30:27.559 --> 00:30:32.319 just I can't justify it. But I didn't know that I had to thank 337 00:30:32.359 --> 00:30:37.960 you. Crazy politicians and moonbat leftists appreciate this. Whoops, that's not the 338 00:30:37.000 --> 00:30:44.039 thing I meant to hit. That's breaking news, new human rights. Door 339 00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:47.759 dash so, and I don't think they just mean door dash, I mean 340 00:30:47.880 --> 00:30:53.400 door Dash, Uber eats, grub Hub, any of the others. When 341 00:30:53.440 --> 00:31:00.559 you train people that there is entitlement and and you start and you start with 342 00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:07.319 things like anything that crosses the threshold of you have an entitlement to yes, 343 00:31:07.400 --> 00:31:14.440 even housing and food for that matter, when you are in no way, 344 00:31:14.480 --> 00:31:18.079 shape or form willing to put in effort immediately, what they'll do is they'll 345 00:31:18.079 --> 00:31:19.640 come out with the straw man and they'll say, well, you know what 346 00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:25.880 about the you know what about the disabled veteran who lost five limbs and in 347 00:31:26.000 --> 00:31:29.559 the Middle East? And do you know that's not what we're talking about. 348 00:31:29.880 --> 00:31:34.559 Okay, you know that's not You're talking about the people you see never working 349 00:31:36.359 --> 00:31:41.000 right, constantly hanging out on the street a lot of times, finding themselves 350 00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:47.599 in criminal arrears and posting videos from you know, in their house with their 351 00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:49.920 eighty inch TV and all of that. I mean, the people who are 352 00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:56.799 poor in this country as a general rule, have a higher standard of life 353 00:31:56.839 --> 00:32:01.400 than even people who are considered not the poor percentage in many other countries. 354 00:32:04.200 --> 00:32:08.359 And and by the way, that's that is a that is a testament to 355 00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:15.880 really what we build here in America. But this whole threat and this whole 356 00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:22.480 argument yesterday, I'm telling you, man seven o seven, the heavens are 357 00:32:22.519 --> 00:32:27.839 opening and coming for our radio tower. I guess so, or it's or 358 00:32:27.920 --> 00:32:31.839 there's just some thunder. So I don't know, like just it's so bad, 359 00:32:31.880 --> 00:32:36.960 Like I just assume that every weather events now coming to murder pieces of 360 00:32:36.960 --> 00:32:44.000 our equipment, because you know, any anytime where the week starts with something, 361 00:32:44.079 --> 00:32:46.000 then I just assume. So I don't know. Maybe that's what it 362 00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:50.160 is. Well, that's race stage coming up a little later. He'll know, 363 00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:59.400 he'll know. But I was reading this batcrap crazy discussion yesterday over door 364 00:32:59.559 --> 00:33:02.559 da not just door dash, Like what is or isn't a human right? 365 00:33:04.240 --> 00:33:08.200 And what happens? You have these people who have been trained all of their 366 00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:13.200 life that no matter what you want, if you don't have it for whatever 367 00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:21.119 reason, that's because some evil person is keeping it from you. It is 368 00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:25.039 the main crux of being able to run around and do a Super Bowl two 369 00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:30.319 minute little video about how there's less Dorito's in the bag than there used to 370 00:33:30.319 --> 00:33:37.079 be and say that it is purely born out of greed or classism or any 371 00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:40.920 of the rest, when ironically, the very same politicians who pander in that 372 00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:50.119 way are arguably some of the worst offenders. If you consider being able to 373 00:33:50.200 --> 00:33:53.000 buy what you can afford based on how much money you have, some sort 374 00:33:53.000 --> 00:33:57.839 of great offense. I don't happen to think that it is. That's not 375 00:33:57.920 --> 00:34:00.119 to say that there's not people out there who are do you take advantage of 376 00:34:00.160 --> 00:34:06.279 others and should rightfully be called out. And it's also not to dismiss, 377 00:34:06.359 --> 00:34:09.639 because it is the argument that gets made here that there are in fact not 378 00:34:09.960 --> 00:34:19.400 people out there who struggle to perform daily menial tasks due to a disability an 379 00:34:19.400 --> 00:34:27.000 injury, both physical or I would say, you know where they've suffered an 380 00:34:27.039 --> 00:34:30.360 injury and it's changed things and they're having to relearn to do stuff as well 381 00:34:30.400 --> 00:34:35.440 as things that people have battled all of their life. I readily get that, 382 00:34:36.239 --> 00:34:39.119 And in the extreme cases that are about to be used in this stupid 383 00:34:39.199 --> 00:34:46.320 argument, if you're to the point where this is a problem, and such 384 00:34:46.320 --> 00:34:51.920 a problem that you feel the government needs to step in, then likely you're 385 00:34:51.960 --> 00:34:55.400 to the point where this ain't just about your ability to cook a frozen dinner, 386 00:34:57.559 --> 00:35:02.880 which is roundly rejected in this thing, but rather you probably need more 387 00:35:04.800 --> 00:35:13.679 help for a lot of other stuff. I one hundred percent understand that's not 388 00:35:13.679 --> 00:35:17.320 all we're talking about here, And it started like this. So you have 389 00:35:17.400 --> 00:35:22.239 these idiots that are out there arguing that food is a basic human right and 390 00:35:22.239 --> 00:35:27.320 that if anybody wants food, regardless of what they've done to attain it, 391 00:35:28.199 --> 00:35:32.079 that the government has an obligation to give them food, and that is already 392 00:35:32.199 --> 00:35:42.400 standard practice in this country. And yet the argument continues to be made. 393 00:35:43.400 --> 00:35:46.039 You see it with school lunch, right, which turned into school breakfast, 394 00:35:46.039 --> 00:35:52.079 which turned into school dinner, and all the while to qualify for those programs 395 00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:58.639 free and reduced as they call it, Chances are there is some sort of 396 00:35:58.719 --> 00:36:04.880 financial aid already going to the family, and in the form of snap food 397 00:36:04.920 --> 00:36:07.719 stamps that used to be known in other programs. So you ask yourself, 398 00:36:07.719 --> 00:36:09.760 all right, well, this is how they've expanded, and they did it 399 00:36:09.840 --> 00:36:16.840 undercover of Look how hungry that kid is. Well, we weren't rich. 400 00:36:16.960 --> 00:36:20.840 Now, granted we had more. We did have a lot of meat walking 401 00:36:20.880 --> 00:36:24.119 around, so you know, in case of emergency, break glass. But 402 00:36:24.280 --> 00:36:29.800 ultimately the fact remains that if you know, if we didn't budget, a 403 00:36:29.880 --> 00:36:35.320 lot of times, it wasn't very pleasant what we were eating. And when 404 00:36:35.320 --> 00:36:39.679 we were younger, if mom was busy, because you know, it was 405 00:36:39.800 --> 00:36:43.639 just my mom in the latter years of my life, she was busy and 406 00:36:43.719 --> 00:36:47.519 she was working, which she did relentlessly her whole life. After my parents 407 00:36:47.559 --> 00:36:55.320 split up, then you were hungry till mom got home. That's just how 408 00:36:55.320 --> 00:37:02.920 it was. But this goes a step further because when you try to appease 409 00:37:04.039 --> 00:37:13.920 these people, as this former city council member or is this the Princeton, 410 00:37:14.480 --> 00:37:19.519 PA or Princeton, New Jersey. It's one of the college towns anyway, 411 00:37:19.559 --> 00:37:23.199 whatever, when you try to appease that and you think that you're making some 412 00:37:23.239 --> 00:37:30.920 sort of common sense argument, those folks are not appeasable because it will always 413 00:37:30.119 --> 00:37:35.159 escalate. And this exchange right here, I think is a good example. 414 00:37:35.760 --> 00:37:38.239 All right, Does anyone else think it's upsetting The food is currently considered a 415 00:37:38.360 --> 00:37:46.320 luxury item that we're being told just eat cereal and frozen dinners. I'm feeling 416 00:37:46.360 --> 00:37:50.719 a type of way about that now. The cereal thing we talked about, 417 00:37:50.719 --> 00:37:54.320 that was the CEO of Kellogg's suggesting that you eat cereal for every meal, 418 00:37:54.880 --> 00:38:02.800 because he's the CEO of cereal. Ross and I are of the opinion that 419 00:38:02.840 --> 00:38:07.360 you should get all of your information from radio. I don't want to speak 420 00:38:07.360 --> 00:38:08.760 for Ross. Maybe I don't believe that, but but I'm gonna go out 421 00:38:08.760 --> 00:38:19.800 there and say that and uh, just talk just FM talk radio on stations 422 00:38:19.840 --> 00:38:23.559 whose number starts with nines and zeros, which is I understand it's almost all 423 00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:30.400 of them. But there you go. Why because I'm selling radio, man, 424 00:38:31.639 --> 00:38:36.239 that's my product. So you know, be but hurt about that. 425 00:38:36.280 --> 00:38:40.079 You don't have to eat cereal, but eating something that is inexpensive like that 426 00:38:40.280 --> 00:38:43.440 or you can get a lot of it for a little amount of money, 427 00:38:43.519 --> 00:38:47.719 is the hallmark of how people stretch food budgets. And it's not just cereal, 428 00:38:47.880 --> 00:38:52.719 it's all all the other stuff that uh you know, the little the 429 00:38:52.760 --> 00:38:57.320 little ways in which you can you can make through song. I remember something 430 00:38:57.360 --> 00:39:01.239 my mom, My mom was a very good cook, but she's raising four 431 00:39:01.320 --> 00:39:05.800 kids. And so when we go to event, if we go to like 432 00:39:05.800 --> 00:39:07.840 a church thing where it was bringing, you know, bring a dish to 433 00:39:07.920 --> 00:39:15.679 pass. She had she had a couple salads that she'd make and they were 434 00:39:15.719 --> 00:39:22.360 really good, but they were also really inexpensive to make, and and and 435 00:39:22.360 --> 00:39:25.480 and so that's that's what that's what she would do. And she would make 436 00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:32.119 that decision. Today she would be considered a psycho by these people as this 437 00:39:32.320 --> 00:39:38.840 uh, this guy answers this person making an assertion that they should have access 438 00:39:38.840 --> 00:39:43.760 to all the food. He writes, some types of food our basic staples, 439 00:39:44.079 --> 00:39:50.079 rice, pasta, vegetables and fruit and uh and so the arguments being 440 00:39:50.119 --> 00:39:55.760 made that, yes, people should have unbridled access to those things. He 441 00:39:55.800 --> 00:40:00.159 goes on to say, some types of food are more luxury items. Both 442 00:40:00.199 --> 00:40:02.440 can exist. No one has an automatic human right to be able to shop 443 00:40:02.480 --> 00:40:06.639 at weight rose. I'm assuming that's like a high end grocery store. I 444 00:40:06.639 --> 00:40:12.039 don't know. Uh and and apparently, uh, yeah, yeah, they 445 00:40:12.079 --> 00:40:16.079 do think that it's a basic human right to afford all food. You can't 446 00:40:16.119 --> 00:40:22.679 pick and choose what people deserve. What is wrong with you? So now 447 00:40:22.719 --> 00:40:25.599 we have we have gone from I'll meet you here and yeah, I think 448 00:40:25.639 --> 00:40:30.880 that absolutely when it comes to uh, you know, grains and fruits and 449 00:40:30.960 --> 00:40:32.920 vegetables and all that, Yeah, absolutely, the government should cover that for 450 00:40:32.960 --> 00:40:37.519 you too. No, no, no, that's classiest. What if I 451 00:40:37.599 --> 00:40:45.960 want caviar for dinner to where the actual argument is being made that somehow you 452 00:40:45.960 --> 00:40:52.360 we should subsidize your caviar habit. But and maybe that's not your your I 453 00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:57.880 happen to like cavia. I think it's pretty good, but I've eaten it 454 00:40:58.119 --> 00:41:01.599 like a handful of times, you know, I because it's the good stuff's 455 00:41:01.639 --> 00:41:08.400 expensive. It's I'm trying to remember the last time I had cat. I 456 00:41:08.440 --> 00:41:12.960 think it was at the hard Rock down in Florida. They have like a 457 00:41:13.000 --> 00:41:19.800 caviar restaurant in there, and a big group of us went in and the 458 00:41:19.880 --> 00:41:23.880 bill was bonkers, man, and you feel like you haven't even eaten anything. 459 00:41:24.800 --> 00:41:29.159 So you know, the decision was, this is a special thing I 460 00:41:29.159 --> 00:41:32.320 can I'm not eating it every day, and you know, I'm I'm especially 461 00:41:32.679 --> 00:41:39.559 being a single like I have a lot of flexibility in my food budget because 462 00:41:39.639 --> 00:41:45.400 I'm not providing for nine people or whatever. But still I can't justify this 463 00:41:45.440 --> 00:41:51.280 person's like no, no, no, no, totally. It is absolutely 464 00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:57.760 something government should be providing. And when challenged on this exertion, the response 465 00:41:57.920 --> 00:42:04.280 was swift, saying that telling people to microwave frozen meals and telling them that 466 00:42:04.360 --> 00:42:09.840 they may not be able to afford luxury food items or food delivery is idiotic 467 00:42:10.599 --> 00:42:17.320 and departing from the principles of individuals having a responsibility to help others. All 468 00:42:17.400 --> 00:42:22.880 right, so do you think the DoorDash driver should waive the cost of bringing 469 00:42:22.920 --> 00:42:28.280 you your food. What about your responsibility to that individual that they're able to 470 00:42:28.320 --> 00:42:36.199 make some sort of income because they want to work. Then it turns to 471 00:42:36.440 --> 00:42:38.800 the door dash side, saying it's not just about the food, but also 472 00:42:39.840 --> 00:42:45.800 there are many people who simply don't have the ability to prepare even things as 473 00:42:45.840 --> 00:42:55.480 simple as a microwave dinner, and instead should be permitted to receive delivery services. 474 00:42:55.719 --> 00:43:00.840 Okay, here's the deal. How many of you have eaten a micro 475 00:43:00.000 --> 00:43:05.840 have microwave something to eat in the last month? All Right, I out 476 00:43:05.880 --> 00:43:10.159 care as a hot pocket or or whatever. You're not. You're not SOLVD 477 00:43:10.159 --> 00:43:15.480 in cold fusion, right. I know that you drank too much and you 478 00:43:15.559 --> 00:43:19.079 forgot the pizza was in the oven. You almost burned your house down, 479 00:43:19.079 --> 00:43:22.079 But that's an individual character flaw, and that's a college thing. Don't do 480 00:43:22.199 --> 00:43:29.039 that. But but also I have made a hot pocket in the last month, 481 00:43:30.320 --> 00:43:34.519 a breakfast, specifically the breakfast ones, which I feel are vastly superior. 482 00:43:36.079 --> 00:43:37.480 And then they used to have a spicy chicken one that I thought was 483 00:43:37.480 --> 00:43:39.679 pretty good. I don't know that. I think they don't make that one 484 00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:47.320 anymore. But I've also ordered Uber Eats, which I ordered literally the day 485 00:43:47.480 --> 00:43:52.000 on Sunday when I got back from my vacation because I had zero food in 486 00:43:52.039 --> 00:43:55.159 the house. Obviously I didn't feel like going to the store coming from the 487 00:43:55.159 --> 00:44:00.960 airport and all that. And you need like a cut and torch to get 488 00:44:00.000 --> 00:44:06.519 into that packaging. So this stupid argument that people who especially those who are 489 00:44:06.599 --> 00:44:10.360 not working due to disability, should have a right to package food. It's 490 00:44:10.519 --> 00:44:15.199 far easier to get a hot pocket out than it is than it was to 491 00:44:15.239 --> 00:44:22.360 get my Chuan Cafe Chinese food out because they do a hell of a job 492 00:44:22.440 --> 00:44:24.719 package and that also be like really traditional Chinese. It's good, but it's 493 00:44:24.719 --> 00:44:30.280 on newburns, you get it delivered, Okay. Anyway, that being said, 494 00:44:30.320 --> 00:44:34.840 this is this is the escalation. This is the continued jump into the 495 00:44:34.840 --> 00:44:40.519 shark that we get where it goes from. You know, people people just 496 00:44:40.559 --> 00:44:44.800 trying to they're just trying to get bread, right, the stupid AOC argument 497 00:44:44.800 --> 00:44:49.920 when they're looting, you know, an air mez store for ten thousand dollars, 498 00:44:49.920 --> 00:44:53.360 persons like, oh, they just need bread to door dashes a human 499 00:44:53.440 --> 00:44:58.159 right, Why do I Then I just threw my mouse off of my counter 500 00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:01.480 That is good. You know what, I need a new mouse and it's 501 00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:07.880 a human right or oh no, just snap back into place. Okay, 502 00:45:07.960 --> 00:45:10.119 all right, well that's good because I thought the government was going to have 503 00:45:10.159 --> 00:45:14.480 to do that for me. All right, here we go. It is 504 00:45:14.519 --> 00:45:17.719 seven nineteen on my third mouse. Now the other one, the roly thing, 505 00:45:17.719 --> 00:45:22.639 didn't work. I realized I didn't have it. This one good to 506 00:45:22.719 --> 00:45:25.280 go. I know you guys are all very concerned, but I needed it 507 00:45:25.320 --> 00:45:30.400 because during the break I had to update my list of people who may have 508 00:45:30.559 --> 00:45:37.760 thought that Diddy was up to some not some horrible things. You know, 509 00:45:37.880 --> 00:45:43.360 if the lawsuit items and investigative items that have come trickling out are in fact 510 00:45:43.480 --> 00:45:52.920 true. Obviously at this point there are allegations. And yet as I as 511 00:45:52.960 --> 00:45:57.760 I now update my list to add Cuba, Gooding Junior, and Prince Harry 512 00:45:58.880 --> 00:46:05.039 to the possible to people who you know, may have known some stuff was 513 00:46:05.159 --> 00:46:09.039 up and in the in the lawsuit. They're actually named in the lawsuits. 514 00:46:09.039 --> 00:46:15.360 So there is a plaintiff who feels that they have some responsibility. We'll let 515 00:46:15.400 --> 00:46:20.480 the courts figure that out. I I have my list and the list of 516 00:46:20.599 --> 00:46:25.079 people who at the very least may have suspected something was up with P Diddy? 517 00:46:25.840 --> 00:46:34.400 Is it's all the people, all the people ever in Hollywood and or 518 00:46:34.519 --> 00:46:39.719 in the British royal family and or just adjacent to him, people who worked 519 00:46:40.239 --> 00:46:46.960 in and around some of the record companies, all the people kind of like 520 00:46:47.000 --> 00:46:54.880 the Epstein thing and kind of like the Weinstein thing, Right, everybody everybody 521 00:46:54.960 --> 00:47:00.719 knew or it's suspected, and all these people are coming out so that they 522 00:47:00.719 --> 00:47:05.719 can, you know, grab their own little slice of this going oh yeah, 523 00:47:05.719 --> 00:47:07.280 man, you know there was there were these stories, and it's like, 524 00:47:10.440 --> 00:47:16.119 if there were all these stories, why did you continue to produce music 525 00:47:16.199 --> 00:47:22.320 with this individual? Right or party with them? There's all these pictures. 526 00:47:23.039 --> 00:47:25.960 At this point, I think maybe Ross and I were the only ones who 527 00:47:25.960 --> 00:47:30.920 didn't know, and that's because I only follow Hollywood to the extent that I 528 00:47:30.960 --> 00:47:37.280 have to, usually after they screw something up. So that's where we are 529 00:47:37.280 --> 00:47:45.280 with that. The lawyer for Combs basically is saying that it was a grossover 530 00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:51.639 reaction by law enforcement, and law enforcement says, no, we got a 531 00:47:51.679 --> 00:47:55.000 bunch of stuff and you won't believe what we're finding. But of course that's 532 00:47:55.039 --> 00:48:00.079 through you know, undisclosed sources. So take you know, take it for 533 00:48:00.159 --> 00:48:04.880 what it's worth. But yeah, the Jerry Maguire actor, Cuba Gooding Junior 534 00:48:05.039 --> 00:48:15.000 and the most unlikable person or one of in my opinion, Prince Harry maybe 535 00:48:15.119 --> 00:48:20.559 also according to this lawsuit, knew what was up, knew that there was 536 00:48:20.599 --> 00:48:25.719 sex trafficking. The person filing the lawsuit is a guy who said that he 537 00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:31.920 was essentially held on a yacht in the Virgin Islands. There we go with 538 00:48:31.920 --> 00:48:36.440 the Virgin Islands again. I'll let you figure out if you remember where Epstein's 539 00:48:36.440 --> 00:48:45.679 place was and Combs had essentially handed him over to be sexually assaulted by Cuba 540 00:48:45.719 --> 00:48:52.800 Gooding Junior. Is what the allegation is. What is specifically the Prince Harry 541 00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:59.679 thing. I think they're just saying he had some knowledge to fifty million dollars 542 00:48:59.719 --> 00:49:05.559 laws suit and again it's a civil matter, obviously there is some there's criminal 543 00:49:05.559 --> 00:49:14.239 investigation going on. Lil Rodd, who is the guy with followed the lawsuit, 544 00:49:14.320 --> 00:49:20.639 Rodney Jones is his legal name, claims that they were guests were allegedly 545 00:49:20.760 --> 00:49:29.599 drawn to Ditty's sex trafficking parties because of his quote access to celebrities athletes, 546 00:49:29.679 --> 00:49:37.039 political figures, artists, and even international dignitaries in the case of Prince Harry. 547 00:49:37.119 --> 00:49:38.400 Neither of them be in charged with the crime. I just want to 548 00:49:38.440 --> 00:49:45.559 be clear there. But it's pretty lurid stuff. And yesterday was just a 549 00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:49.960 parade of people going oh yeah, yeah, everyone knew what was up. 550 00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:58.159 Who was it? It was Kevin Hart. Here's a video that was going 551 00:49:58.199 --> 00:50:01.840 around with Kevin Hart, who like didn't want to be on a bed near 552 00:50:04.000 --> 00:50:08.519 Combs and somebody else and was literally now that you understand, like the references 553 00:50:08.559 --> 00:50:15.039 he was making, it was clear that Kevin Hart years ago at least knew 554 00:50:15.079 --> 00:50:21.159 that there were rumors and was in a comedic fashion because he was a comedian, 555 00:50:21.760 --> 00:50:25.599 but he was clear, it was clearly serious, was trying to not 556 00:50:27.199 --> 00:50:31.199 end up in a photo on a bed with Sean Combs. So yeah, 557 00:50:31.199 --> 00:50:37.920 it's just yeah, once again it's this, and then these are the folks 558 00:50:37.960 --> 00:50:42.480 that come out and lecture, you know, with the times up PSAs and 559 00:50:42.519 --> 00:50:50.800 all the rest, and it's just it's sodom and Gomorrah, which is really 560 00:50:50.880 --> 00:50:53.559 the best reference I can think of there. All Right, I promise we'd 561 00:50:53.599 --> 00:51:00.519 do it. Let's get to it, because they keep producing, and we're 562 00:51:00.559 --> 00:51:04.840 here to do We're here to take advantage in these situations. Let's head to 563 00:51:04.840 --> 00:51:13.079 our favorite state, to the salad. Florida Man. Florida Man. Is 564 00:51:13.119 --> 00:51:16.360 something in the water the errors hand that makes you do all that crazy crap. 565 00:51:16.440 --> 00:51:21.400 It's like the state is one to be dumb ass trapped. Nowhere else 566 00:51:21.440 --> 00:51:28.440 has the Florida Man. It is almost like as the weird Factor climbs to 567 00:51:28.519 --> 00:51:35.400 find out it haven't in Florida every time. Florida Man, Florida Man. 568 00:51:35.480 --> 00:51:37.400 If anyone can jeer me of, you know, you can just mind life 569 00:51:37.440 --> 00:51:42.079 be crazy. But of course, but it's not as bad crap crazy as 570 00:51:42.119 --> 00:51:45.639 yours. Nowhere else are you gonna find him? They're so used to it 571 00:51:45.760 --> 00:51:52.519 they don't find him. Hooray for Florida Man. All right, and uh, 572 00:51:52.679 --> 00:51:57.840 let's start at Popeyes. A couple arrested Saturday afternoon for getting it on 573 00:51:58.239 --> 00:52:01.559 in uh in the in the front of the Popeyes. I know what you're 574 00:52:01.559 --> 00:52:04.760 thinking, You're like, whether you do they park in one of the back 575 00:52:04.840 --> 00:52:10.559 spots and somebody just happened to see them. No, No, nothing like 576 00:52:10.639 --> 00:52:15.880 that. Vero Beach, Florida authority say they received a report of a couple 577 00:52:16.880 --> 00:52:23.480 in full view of Highway One, which this particular popeye sets adjacent to, 578 00:52:24.840 --> 00:52:30.880 as well as people there just to eat, of a couple getting busy on 579 00:52:30.960 --> 00:52:40.840 the sidewalk in front of the main entrance. We say. When they arrived, 580 00:52:40.880 --> 00:52:45.400 they found seventy year old Arnold Mackie and forty four year old April White. 581 00:52:45.599 --> 00:52:55.079 Good for him AnyWho, and they were all into it. According to 582 00:52:55.159 --> 00:53:05.119 the police report, White was laying down sands clothing legs in the sky. 583 00:53:07.719 --> 00:53:09.840 I'll let you fill in the blanks, right, They're not even like, 584 00:53:09.880 --> 00:53:14.400 oh I tripped and fell, let's try. No, it was what it 585 00:53:14.559 --> 00:53:20.119 was, At which point the deputy confronted them. The woman started referring to 586 00:53:20.199 --> 00:53:25.719 the deputy as the British word for a cigarette, also implying it's done like 587 00:53:25.719 --> 00:53:30.400 a woman's ego. Man, not all of you, but in this case 588 00:53:30.400 --> 00:53:34.840 you'll understand. She was upset that the deputy was like, you can't do 589 00:53:35.079 --> 00:53:38.440 that, and she's like, why wouldn't you want to watch this? Look 590 00:53:38.480 --> 00:53:44.679 how amazing I am. So she's already upset. The seventy year old Mackie 591 00:53:45.199 --> 00:53:52.559 said he did a he I have to read this quote Mackie told the investigators 592 00:53:52.559 --> 00:54:01.440 that it was quote not his intention to expose himself, and he argued that 593 00:54:01.880 --> 00:54:14.320 technically his parts were obscured. I can't read all the quotes. In fact, 594 00:54:14.519 --> 00:54:17.840 Mackie said that once he realized the direction this was heading, he had 595 00:54:17.840 --> 00:54:23.239 implored the woman to leave the sidewalk and perhaps move into the bushes nearby to 596 00:54:23.320 --> 00:54:30.639 get some privacy. He said that she refused, saying that the she's where 597 00:54:30.679 --> 00:54:35.559 she wanted to be, and he says, what was I supposed to do? 598 00:54:35.679 --> 00:54:38.679 I wasn't going to turn it down. That's a man in a predicament 599 00:54:38.800 --> 00:54:43.360 right there. So anyway, he's charged with all the stuff, she's charged 600 00:54:43.400 --> 00:54:51.079 with some extra stuff. And the you know, don't don't have sex in 601 00:54:51.119 --> 00:54:54.119 front of the main door of the Popeyes, I guess is the takeaway there? 602 00:54:54.519 --> 00:54:57.639 All right, that's one of two stories. We got another one. 603 00:54:57.639 --> 00:55:00.679 I'll dip it in before the show's over. But first race Agic from the 604 00:55:00.679 --> 00:55:07.280 Weather Channel and Florida never fails to no. I mean a lot of key 605 00:55:07.320 --> 00:55:10.000 points there of the whys, and of course there's some why nots. And 606 00:55:10.760 --> 00:55:19.840 I'm looking at the mugshots. This dude's batting way outside his I'll kick coverage. 607 00:55:19.880 --> 00:55:22.760 Huh yeah, yeah yeah. So like I'm not justifying it, but 608 00:55:22.800 --> 00:55:28.559 I like I feel that logically, you you, most people wouldn't voice it. 609 00:55:28.599 --> 00:55:30.519 But his argument that, hey man, I'm a seventy year old dude 610 00:55:30.599 --> 00:55:35.800 in this forty four year old smoke show is like, what am I supposed 611 00:55:35.840 --> 00:55:38.519 to do? It's not a legal argument, but I understand it. I 612 00:55:38.519 --> 00:55:45.000 guess sure. Sure. Anyway, he's also he's like, I'm seventy What 613 00:55:45.000 --> 00:55:46.639 are you gonna do to me? Right right? Pay a fine and I'll 614 00:55:46.679 --> 00:55:50.320 be back at it. But anyway, they were hammered. They were hammered, 615 00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:53.760 all right. So anyway, so why is there thunder? Don't know? 616 00:55:54.239 --> 00:55:58.719 No, you can't know. No, No, that's stop. Well 617 00:55:58.719 --> 00:56:00.880 we do have to. We'll draw a line. I'm gonna do the best 618 00:56:00.920 --> 00:56:05.800 I can, and drawing that line to where we get more rain than where 619 00:56:05.840 --> 00:56:08.159 we get less because it kind of cuts the try it in the triangle right 620 00:56:08.199 --> 00:56:12.880 in half of right now, Yes, lightning tracker, well that's a lie 621 00:56:12.920 --> 00:56:16.039 hold on there now, lightning trackers on, and yes, some thunder and 622 00:56:16.119 --> 00:56:22.280 lightning showing up now, going northeast out of Wake County and Durham Counties and 623 00:56:22.320 --> 00:56:27.000 into Vans and Warren Counties of Franklin. The storms aren't severe, but some 624 00:56:27.039 --> 00:56:30.119 heavier rain, a little thunder lightning there. That batch is going north and 625 00:56:30.159 --> 00:56:37.960 then out near Winston Salem and up near it's just Stokesdale, Anne Reidsville, 626 00:56:37.000 --> 00:56:40.920 and up and through Rockingham County Fortyth Counties, respectively. Some more showers, 627 00:56:42.400 --> 00:56:45.679 Yanceyville and Caswell County some showers, and that whole batch is basically moving north, 628 00:56:45.760 --> 00:56:50.559 just some lingering showers here before the next batch comes on through. That's 629 00:56:50.559 --> 00:56:53.039 going east of Charlotte. So we will have some showers today, some thunder 630 00:56:53.039 --> 00:56:57.960 showers around near sixty degrees. Some of us will stay in the fifties. 631 00:56:57.960 --> 00:57:00.519 And then tonight and tomorrow we're gonna watch them rain showers push east out of 632 00:57:00.559 --> 00:57:06.840 the Triad, and the Triangle is probably gonna see more rain overnight tonight into 633 00:57:06.880 --> 00:57:09.159 tomorrow, maybe an inch or two of rainfall. Then as you go west, 634 00:57:09.239 --> 00:57:15.000 and I'm trying to find a good dividing line, let's just say west 635 00:57:15.039 --> 00:57:22.719 of Chatham, Orange Counties and in through Percon County. Points west of that 636 00:57:23.239 --> 00:57:25.880 very little rainfall. I think the heaviest rain is going to be from about 637 00:57:25.880 --> 00:57:30.239 those points in east, and by seven grade o'clock tomorrow morning it's gonna even 638 00:57:30.239 --> 00:57:36.039 push east of raleighing in through and out across Ey ninety five. So there's 639 00:57:36.079 --> 00:57:37.280 a very fine line to where there's rain and where there's not. Tomorrow, 640 00:57:37.360 --> 00:57:42.880 so showers, maybe a thundershower. Let me recap quickly today near sixty degrees 641 00:57:42.920 --> 00:57:47.519 tonight, showers, thunderstorms in through tomorrow to about midday from the triangle east. 642 00:57:47.559 --> 00:57:50.559 That's probably the best way to put it in. Maybe some heavy rain 643 00:57:50.639 --> 00:57:52.519 overnight tonight, and then by Friday it's a lot easier, and into the 644 00:57:52.519 --> 00:57:57.880 weekend it's pretty easy too, with sunshine back mid upper sixties Friday, seventy 645 00:57:57.920 --> 00:58:00.159 five Saturday. You're eighty on Sunday, so beautifully Sunday coming up. So 646 00:58:00.679 --> 00:58:05.079 a little tricky onto where the rain is and where it isn't, especially tonight 647 00:58:05.159 --> 00:58:08.480 and through about the morning hours tomorrow, but after that we should be a 648 00:58:08.519 --> 00:58:12.800 pretty good shape. All right, appreciate it. We'll talk in an hour, 649 00:58:12.920 --> 00:58:15.679 sir. All right, okay, all right, have a good one, 650 00:58:15.760 --> 00:58:19.519 seven forty nine back in just a few hang on, seventy year old 651 00:58:19.599 --> 00:58:23.320 dude scoring some I would say, alone time, but they weren't alone with 652 00:58:23.840 --> 00:58:31.920 this forty four year old woman right Robin the cradle. I'm that is again 653 00:58:31.960 --> 00:58:36.519 it's a weighted scale. People are like, you must have seen an older 654 00:58:36.519 --> 00:58:40.280 picture, right, I'm looking at her booking photo where they're both wearing prison 655 00:58:40.440 --> 00:58:45.760 smocks. I guess probably because you know they have any clothes. So, 656 00:58:47.239 --> 00:58:52.360 but you know you can decide whether she is. In fact, you can 657 00:58:52.440 --> 00:58:55.079 raid her in your own league. She's obviously adventurous, likes to party, 658 00:58:55.880 --> 00:59:01.280 as evidenced by the three empty bottles of vodka they found nearby. So anyway, 659 00:59:01.440 --> 00:59:12.159 but let me ask something else. Uh all right, it took me 660 00:59:12.199 --> 00:59:17.199 a moment, so I need a spy report. Where is this in Nightdale? 661 00:59:19.599 --> 00:59:23.239 All right? So I've received I received a photo here of it looks 662 00:59:23.280 --> 00:59:29.320 like they're renovating a Bojangles, right, you know, the taking it, 663 00:59:29.800 --> 00:59:31.480 putting it if if you've been in some of the newer ones, they've got 664 00:59:31.519 --> 00:59:39.519 a slightly different look, a little more modern. That's cool. That's fine, 665 00:59:40.639 --> 00:59:47.440 however, and we'll tweet this photo out. If you look at it, 666 00:59:47.519 --> 00:59:52.280 you realize that is in fact not a Bojangles. It does have the 667 00:59:52.400 --> 00:59:57.880 lettering, is the right color. The building looks like a Bojangles. However, 668 00:59:58.480 --> 01:00:04.079 it is clear on one side of the building because you can see two 669 01:00:04.199 --> 01:00:10.960 sides of the building where the name is it says bo jagnoles the G in 670 01:00:12.039 --> 01:00:14.880 the end or back? How do you do that? And then how do 671 01:00:14.880 --> 01:00:22.719 you do it correctly on one side of the building where it is properly spelled 672 01:00:22.840 --> 01:00:30.920 B O j A N G L E S And then you screw it? 673 01:00:30.920 --> 01:00:35.679 And then you screw it up on arguably the front facing side of the building, 674 01:00:35.760 --> 01:00:37.599 like that's the that's the side people are going to see from the street 675 01:00:37.639 --> 01:00:43.920 there. How do you get how do you have literally one you're renovating a 676 01:00:44.000 --> 01:00:49.519 Bojangles? Now, my spy report says, this is a night can somebody 677 01:00:49.519 --> 01:00:52.719 can? I'm assuming that somebody caught that and they fixed it, right, 678 01:00:52.320 --> 01:00:57.760 like somebody who walked out, maybe who works for Bojangles? Right, maybe 679 01:00:57.800 --> 01:01:00.079 the manager is kind of supervising some of the construction auction. It's like, 680 01:01:00.079 --> 01:01:06.920 what the how the hell? How do you misspell the bow Jangles? And 681 01:01:06.960 --> 01:01:10.760 again you only misspell it on one side. I can't fathom that. Ac 682 01:01:10.880 --> 01:01:16.000 O Day Radio program our number three, glad to have you along, all 683 01:01:16.079 --> 01:01:22.840 right, So we uh we were doing spy reports on the uh the bo 684 01:01:22.039 --> 01:01:29.039 Young Young Young Young Nails the Bojangles in Night Tale off sixty four. But 685 01:01:29.199 --> 01:01:34.079 they got sent photos of one side where the name of the building is correct 686 01:01:34.079 --> 01:01:37.800 on one side, and then there's they're rentaling it. And then you see 687 01:01:37.800 --> 01:01:43.000 the workers on like a little lift and you know, up to up to 688 01:01:43.039 --> 01:01:46.119 the misspell and they misspelled Bojangles on one of them. And I've got a 689 01:01:46.159 --> 01:01:51.639 lot of people writing and they're like, yeah, well, you know construction 690 01:01:51.800 --> 01:01:54.159 crews. You know, you got a bunch of people on there's probably people 691 01:01:54.199 --> 01:01:59.400 on there. They don't speak English. Uh maybe, but like you're probably 692 01:01:59.480 --> 01:02:06.719 right, I don't no. But also Spanish uses the our alphabet. I 693 01:02:06.760 --> 01:02:12.079 know, the vowels do different things. And also the part that's misspelled. 694 01:02:13.039 --> 01:02:20.480 The j a n g or j a n g l e are literally Spanish 695 01:02:20.519 --> 01:02:24.440 words. It's it means sonar and then the smaller version, although I'm not 696 01:02:24.480 --> 01:02:27.719 super familiar with it, so I had to look it up because i'd seen 697 01:02:27.760 --> 01:02:32.400 it before, is a slang word for like somebody who's like incoherently making sounds. 698 01:02:32.440 --> 01:02:37.519 They'd be like babbling, they could be drunk whatever. But yeah, 699 01:02:37.559 --> 01:02:40.880 the other one literally translates to sonar, So I don't know that you can 700 01:02:42.000 --> 01:02:45.360 use that as an excuse. But also I think they should have left it. 701 01:02:45.400 --> 01:02:49.679 All right, let's get to the phones, U Ben, you're up 702 01:02:49.719 --> 01:02:53.000 first, Go right ahead. Hey, hey man, I love the show, 703 01:02:53.119 --> 01:02:59.000 first time calling. But that whole that whole place has been a big 704 01:02:59.039 --> 01:03:04.960 conundrum. They decided to do a little facelift months ago, and uh, 705 01:03:05.760 --> 01:03:09.639 the town of Nightdale is trying to be like Carrie. And since they changed 706 01:03:09.639 --> 01:03:15.679 the face, they were grandfathered in, so they've been shut down for months. 707 01:03:15.719 --> 01:03:20.840 They've lost thousands and thousands of dollars of business. Is it like a 708 01:03:20.920 --> 01:03:23.039 sign ordinance thing? I know some cities got on that and then just started 709 01:03:23.079 --> 01:03:28.320 screwing businesses. But that and uh, they had to do the sidewalk. 710 01:03:28.360 --> 01:03:31.079 They had to make a part of the sidewalk to be compliance with the intersection 711 01:03:31.239 --> 01:03:36.199 for people because they did that big park across the tile. All right, 712 01:03:36.239 --> 01:03:39.280 Well then they maybe they just couldn't afford, Uh, I guess a spelling 713 01:03:39.360 --> 01:03:45.119 supervisor. I don't know, but I got, I got. I have 714 01:03:45.280 --> 01:03:49.719 two other friends or expanis, and I probably that they all know how to 715 01:03:49.760 --> 01:03:52.360 spell bow Jangles. But I got another quick question. That's another but that's 716 01:03:52.360 --> 01:03:55.320 also another good point. Like you know, if you go to the bow 717 01:03:55.400 --> 01:04:00.920 Jangles around the corner from the radio station, the morning crew is almost exclusively 718 01:04:01.079 --> 01:04:05.199 Hispanic that works in there. They're really good, by the way. You 719 01:04:05.199 --> 01:04:08.679 know, we talked about how some restaurants. I mean, I think that 720 01:04:08.679 --> 01:04:12.760 they're great, but I'm pretty sure they understand how to spell their employer and 721 01:04:12.960 --> 01:04:16.519 the place that they eat. Uh. In that case, absolutely did. 722 01:04:16.559 --> 01:04:19.760 I have a quick question too, something that I wondered, Why hasn't been 723 01:04:19.760 --> 01:04:27.800 on the radar? Yes, sir Anti state between Poe Hal Remember last year 724 01:04:27.840 --> 01:04:30.880 they had like six seven suicides a couple of murders within like a month. 725 01:04:30.920 --> 01:04:34.880 How come there's not been any more investigation in the state. With all this 726 01:04:35.000 --> 01:04:40.400 stuff that's going on with them, they kind of did their own thing. 727 01:04:40.400 --> 01:04:43.320 I mean, the story's getting reported, but it's the wheels of government. 728 01:04:43.360 --> 01:04:45.440 And initially they went and they said, nah, we looked and everything's fine. 729 01:04:45.679 --> 01:04:49.159 And then people pointed out all the stuff you just pointed out, and 730 01:04:49.199 --> 01:04:51.599 they're like, yeah, maybe we'll take a different look at it. So 731 01:04:51.679 --> 01:04:56.639 I understand that that's the process it's in right now. And I've seen I've 732 01:04:56.639 --> 01:05:00.360 seen pretty consistent reporting on it. I mean, it's not it is a 733 01:05:00.480 --> 01:05:03.280 very important story. I just I don't know that it's a real good discussion 734 01:05:03.320 --> 01:05:08.159 topic because you know, nobody's gonna call into the show and be like, 735 01:05:08.280 --> 01:05:12.199 nah, if they're if they're poisoning kids, then then that should probably stay 736 01:05:12.320 --> 01:05:15.639 right. There's not conflict there. It's just a it's just making sure that 737 01:05:15.679 --> 01:05:18.320 the officials at the school do what they need to do. And it sounds 738 01:05:18.360 --> 01:05:21.440 like they've kind of been shamed into some of that, sir. So the 739 01:05:21.840 --> 01:05:27.320 multiple suicides and everything is a total different thing. I'm surprised that it'll make 740 01:05:27.480 --> 01:05:30.079 like national headline. You know why. You know why it doesn't, sir, 741 01:05:30.159 --> 01:05:34.559 And that is because if you look across the collegiate industry, uh, 742 01:05:34.639 --> 01:05:41.760 the suicide rate for students as well as a few other real troubling issues like 743 01:05:42.400 --> 01:05:45.360 NC State's not inconsistent in the numbers they're dealing with, which is sad, 744 01:05:45.440 --> 01:05:48.840 man. I mean, it's very sad, but you know it's not. 745 01:05:49.880 --> 01:05:54.599 You gotta be careful not to make it a Summer of the Shark issue while 746 01:05:54.719 --> 01:05:58.719 also making sure that they're doing everything that they should be doing, especially for 747 01:05:58.719 --> 01:06:02.840 what it costs to go even to NC State man. So yeah, so 748 01:06:02.920 --> 01:06:05.199 I guess that'd be my answer to you. But I appreciate the call this 749 01:06:05.239 --> 01:06:14.320 morning, sir. H yeah, oh that sucks too if that's your regular 750 01:06:14.360 --> 01:06:16.159 bow Jangles. And it's been literally months of this all right, Boston, 751 01:06:16.280 --> 01:06:21.079 Paul. Uh he sent me the photo. What's up, sir? Yeah, 752 01:06:21.159 --> 01:06:25.079 it goes seven. Sent that's to my wife. That was down on 753 01:06:25.880 --> 01:06:29.800 all night and Nightdale full of ar Yeah, and like that guy was saying 754 01:06:30.079 --> 01:06:34.239 that been in a slow process there because night deal requires to have certain colored 755 01:06:34.239 --> 01:06:38.920 bricks on the society of buildings and stuff. Oh really, I didn't know. 756 01:06:39.000 --> 01:06:45.880 I didn't know when to come to that. Admittedly, I I don't. 757 01:06:45.960 --> 01:06:49.039 I don't know is it in that shopping So I'm trying to picture whether 758 01:06:49.119 --> 01:06:53.000 I guess I could look at it. Nah. Now I'm going towards, 759 01:06:53.119 --> 01:06:57.079 going towards uh five forty way down the end of the night the bullard almost 760 01:06:57.119 --> 01:07:00.159 okay, beginning there's still a crap ton of traffic going by it, so 761 01:07:00.280 --> 01:07:04.280 like oh yeah, yeah, thousands of people saw that. That's that's yeah. 762 01:07:03.880 --> 01:07:10.760 They They've built night Station over there is the Yeah, yeah, right. 763 01:07:10.800 --> 01:07:13.840 I know where we're at now. Yeah, it's over there where the 764 01:07:13.880 --> 01:07:16.079 brewery is. You know where the brewery is there? Around? Is that 765 01:07:16.199 --> 01:07:19.079 how you? Is that how you give directions to things? Yeah? You 766 01:07:19.119 --> 01:07:21.360 go to the brewery, go to the light, turn left us right there 767 01:07:21.360 --> 01:07:25.679 and there right right after the other brewery? Gotcha? Okay? All right, 768 01:07:27.000 --> 01:07:30.760 yeah, all right. I just survived Saint Patrick's Day. Uh you 769 01:07:30.840 --> 01:07:34.400 know, yeah, maybe next I'm I'm still on the road, but I'll 770 01:07:34.440 --> 01:07:38.079 be home soon. Okay. All right, Oh, you got to put 771 01:07:38.199 --> 01:07:40.440 you send me an email real quick. I want to ask you about this. 772 01:07:41.440 --> 01:07:44.079 Yeah, that's you bring up Boston. Paul, believe it or not, 773 01:07:44.159 --> 01:07:48.760 brought up a very good point. That bridge up in Baltimore is the 774 01:07:48.880 --> 01:07:54.559 route for anyone hauling chemicals, pro paying things like that, because you don't 775 01:07:54.559 --> 01:07:57.280 want them going through the tunnels there. So you have an r V and 776 01:07:57.280 --> 01:08:00.559 you said that they you couldn't drive through the tunnel, so you've physically had 777 01:08:00.559 --> 01:08:03.039 to drive over that bridge. I may that's a good Yeah. What are 778 01:08:03.039 --> 01:08:08.840 they gonna do? I don't know. I remember you're gonna have them in 779 01:08:08.920 --> 01:08:13.800 Minneapolis. It screwed everything up, But uh, this sounds even worse because 780 01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:17.880 of the hazardous waste concerns and uh right, so you're probably gonna have to 781 01:08:17.920 --> 01:08:23.039 go through the city and that was gonna take you care, but you better 782 01:08:23.079 --> 01:08:26.760 be heavily armed and wearing a flat jacket too well. Also, I feel 783 01:08:26.800 --> 01:08:30.359 like if there was some sort of chemical spill that you maybe wouldn't even notice 784 01:08:30.439 --> 01:08:34.000 in parts of Baltimore. That's right, all right, you have a good 785 01:08:34.119 --> 01:08:40.319 day, all right to enjoy your bow squares. So let's look good. 786 01:08:41.279 --> 01:08:43.640 Yeah, that's been No, that is a good point for all of you, 787 01:08:43.680 --> 01:08:46.119 guys. I just say, guys, because we got we got female 788 01:08:46.159 --> 01:08:48.920 truck drivers too, like to call the show. But for those of you 789 01:08:48.960 --> 01:08:55.760 that are hauling up through Baltimore, what's that nightmare look like? Especially if 790 01:08:55.840 --> 01:09:00.319 you if you're hauling something you can't hold through a tunnel, that's a that's 791 01:09:00.359 --> 01:09:04.039 gonna be a huge go around right there. I can't even imagine what that's 792 01:09:04.079 --> 01:09:08.720 adding. As well as you know, port concerns, things like that. 793 01:09:10.000 --> 01:09:14.079 You know, there's there's there's a lot more than just the initial stuff that 794 01:09:14.079 --> 01:09:19.119 we're seeing here with the I three with I thirty five, because it literally 795 01:09:21.159 --> 01:09:30.960 was the only large bridge connector across the Mississippi River in Minneapolis near downtown, 796 01:09:30.359 --> 01:09:36.239 so you either had to go all the way south to UH to two eighty 797 01:09:36.600 --> 01:09:39.520 try I remember the highway number. You had to go all the way around 798 01:09:39.520 --> 01:09:42.960 to to eighty. You could take the dinky Town Bridge, which was basically 799 01:09:43.039 --> 01:09:46.319 a two lane slash pedestrian bridge. Dinky Town is the area on the other 800 01:09:46.359 --> 01:09:49.800 side of the river in Minneapolis where the University of Minnesota is, but that 801 01:09:50.000 --> 01:09:57.960 simply couldn't handle the traffic flow and for years years you just if you I 802 01:09:58.039 --> 01:10:00.960 like I intentionally didn't go to North Saint Paul when I was living over on 803 01:10:01.000 --> 01:10:04.399 the Minneapolis side because it was just too much of a pain in the butt, 804 01:10:05.680 --> 01:10:10.680 and that at least had a couple options within a few miles. If 805 01:10:10.720 --> 01:10:14.600 you've seen the bridge spans and you're not allowed to now use the tunnels as 806 01:10:14.640 --> 01:10:18.159 well that are on the harbor, you have to go literally all the way 807 01:10:18.199 --> 01:10:26.560 around Baltimore, and that'll cause extra congestion. Like I said, shipping issues 808 01:10:26.600 --> 01:10:32.960 and just even a general nightmare scenario with just the average travel time for the 809 01:10:33.000 --> 01:10:38.359 shipping of goods along the East Coast, which is obviously our nation's busiest corridor, 810 01:10:39.800 --> 01:10:42.399 so we'll be we'll be keeping an eye on that, all right. 811 01:10:43.039 --> 01:10:46.520 I ran I had a story yesterday and I didn't get to it. I 812 01:10:46.640 --> 01:10:54.680 just that was my fault. Got a little sidetracked on some stuff. But 813 01:10:55.840 --> 01:10:59.399 I have too many questions to ignore this, and I'm just gonna throw them 814 01:10:59.399 --> 01:11:04.680 out and I'm gonna be very delicate and maybe somebody from the lawyering world can 815 01:11:04.960 --> 01:11:09.560 can help me out. But this will be a little brainstorm session. So 816 01:11:09.800 --> 01:11:14.399 here's what you need to know. There is a big court case that has 817 01:11:14.439 --> 01:11:19.159 been filed in New York, Arizona, quite a few places over the production 818 01:11:19.560 --> 01:11:25.920 and sale of bootleg and knockoff items. All right, this is this is 819 01:11:25.960 --> 01:11:30.079 a problem. Generally we talk about it in dealing with China and other stuff. 820 01:11:30.119 --> 01:11:33.359 But you know, for those of you who spend a minute in New 821 01:11:33.439 --> 01:11:36.279 York City, you probably heard that if you want to go by knockoff stuff, 822 01:11:36.319 --> 01:11:41.439 go to China towny you and get whatever you want. This is a 823 01:11:41.479 --> 01:11:48.760 little different. These are high end adult products. Okay, I was. 824 01:11:48.840 --> 01:11:54.600 I was looking at the pricing on some of this, and if you got 825 01:11:54.600 --> 01:11:57.119 the money to blow, good for you. But holy crap. All right, 826 01:11:57.199 --> 01:12:04.039 So basically, they are fantasy themed, so they're like adult toys but 827 01:12:04.319 --> 01:12:15.359 with like Lord of the Rings and I Kids You Not the Fantastic Beasts vibe, 828 01:12:15.640 --> 01:12:19.640 and even copyrighted references, which is going to bring up one of my 829 01:12:19.760 --> 01:12:24.800 questions here in a moment. But the company that licenses and builds these high 830 01:12:24.880 --> 01:12:30.359 end products says that several other companies have been ripping off their products and creating 831 01:12:30.920 --> 01:12:39.760 knockoffs, and they point to several examples. One they say that they're just 832 01:12:39.800 --> 01:12:45.600 smirched of besmirching the brand because the brand, which is owned by Bad Dragon 833 01:12:45.760 --> 01:12:56.119 Enterprises, so that the other companies are using their ethically manufactured logoing and basically 834 01:12:56.159 --> 01:13:02.439 they ethically manufactured. They're like a hipster adult products company and everything's made in 835 01:13:02.720 --> 01:13:10.600 the USA and is ethically manufactured, whatever the hell that means. Fine, 836 01:13:10.840 --> 01:13:16.640 Then they claim that the products are defective while attempting to look similar to theirs, 837 01:13:17.159 --> 01:13:23.920 so it is hurting their brand. And this is where this is where 838 01:13:23.960 --> 01:13:28.199 my biggest brainbuster lies. Okay, in the lawsuit, the company that makes 839 01:13:28.239 --> 01:13:32.079 the high end toys that says in other company's ripping them off, they claim 840 01:13:32.159 --> 01:13:38.159 not only are they not made in the USA and have quality issues, but 841 01:13:38.319 --> 01:13:45.960 also they in some cases the visible design is too similar, which I have 842 01:13:45.960 --> 01:13:50.399 a question, like when you're talking about that particular item, they all kind 843 01:13:50.439 --> 01:13:57.119 of have a similar look for obvious reasons. So that's one part. But 844 01:13:57.199 --> 01:14:00.960 the other part, and this is what specifically is named. They identify thirteen 845 01:14:01.079 --> 01:14:05.880 of their best selling brands, which carry names like Kelvin, the Ice, 846 01:14:06.000 --> 01:14:10.720 Dragon stand the t Rex, Virgil the I can't read some of these. 847 01:14:11.239 --> 01:14:16.840 They're dragon themed. They and or Demi Gorgon themed, and have also included 848 01:14:17.680 --> 01:14:23.319 legal product tie ins with the Fantastic bast series. So get that wrap that 849 01:14:23.399 --> 01:14:27.680 through your head, right. This isn't people licensing to make McDonald's toys. 850 01:14:27.680 --> 01:14:32.359 They're literally licensing this this brand. They have a licensing agreement to produce themed 851 01:14:32.439 --> 01:14:35.760 adult stuff, which is fine whatever. I guess if you have a if 852 01:14:35.760 --> 01:14:40.479 you're a big Harry Potter person and you got you know, all the Harry 853 01:14:40.560 --> 01:14:43.880 Potter other stuff, you might as well and the you know that drawer under 854 01:14:43.920 --> 01:14:47.840 your socks have Harry Potter themed stuff if that's what you want to do. 855 01:14:47.880 --> 01:14:54.399 God bless America. But the lawyers for the company state that they are the 856 01:14:54.439 --> 01:15:02.239 products. While they look similar utilize, they utilize it's an inaccurate representation of 857 01:15:03.840 --> 01:15:12.560 a dragons? How do I say this? They're claiming that they cheaped out 858 01:15:12.560 --> 01:15:20.439 on the manufacturing, and while their product contains a suction cups and various textural 859 01:15:20.600 --> 01:15:28.600 things, the knockoffs don't, so they feel poor quality when the product was 860 01:15:28.640 --> 01:15:38.399 intended to be a quote accurate representation of a dragon's nether regions. And this 861 01:15:38.560 --> 01:15:44.720 is a legal argument they're making, which means which means they are going to 862 01:15:44.800 --> 01:15:51.319 have to say no, no, our product accurately portrays a dragon's private area, 863 01:15:53.279 --> 01:15:57.600 whereas their product, because it is poorly constructed as not. How is 864 01:15:57.680 --> 01:16:02.479 that legally arguable? Who is the expert you're putting on this stand to go? 865 01:16:02.600 --> 01:16:09.039 Well, your honor, I've examined both items, and this one clearly 866 01:16:09.199 --> 01:16:14.800 feels like a dragon's whereas this one does not. How does that person know? 867 01:16:15.520 --> 01:16:18.079 And if they're making the legal argument, that's something that they're going to 868 01:16:18.159 --> 01:16:27.399 have to prove to I guess to the court. And I am simultaneously repulsed 869 01:16:28.800 --> 01:16:32.880 but not repulsed. I I don't understand why this is someone's thing, but 870 01:16:32.960 --> 01:16:38.319 if it is, they're not harming anyone. But also that they would literally 871 01:16:38.399 --> 01:16:46.800 make an argument that it's it's it's not an accurate representation of a dragon's Could 872 01:16:46.840 --> 01:16:53.680 you imagine being the poor bastard to hug I had to go check dragons generally 873 01:16:53.680 --> 01:16:57.520 are they're not in a good mood and they're probably sure not in a good 874 01:16:57.560 --> 01:17:00.039 mood if you're in there with a sketch pad and some folk photography, so 875 01:17:00.039 --> 01:17:04.039 you can get it right. Uh, they're asking basically, and then they 876 01:17:04.039 --> 01:17:09.159 get into the normal stuff like they're basically asking for they're trying to put the 877 01:17:09.399 --> 01:17:13.239 business who's copying them out of business, which I understand, but I want 878 01:17:13.359 --> 01:17:15.239 I just I don't want to I don't like watching court cases on TV, 879 01:17:15.399 --> 01:17:20.479 but I want to watch the I want to watch some dude in a suit 880 01:17:20.720 --> 01:17:26.840 explain to the court as as part of a legal argument, how they are 881 01:17:27.399 --> 01:17:32.439 they know the accurate representation of that, whereas this other company doesn't because it's 882 01:17:32.479 --> 01:17:38.520 a dragon that we're talking about, or a dema gorgon that also had to 883 01:17:38.520 --> 01:17:43.680 be hard to inspect, and just some other stuff. Uh, the cotula 884 01:17:44.560 --> 01:17:49.319 cotulhu so dumb but raises so many questions. All right, Sorry, I 885 01:17:49.359 --> 01:17:53.720 got sidetracked there, because these are the things that bounce around in my brain, 886 01:17:53.800 --> 01:17:57.359 and everyone else should have to suffer as well, if I am, 887 01:17:57.560 --> 01:18:00.960 Does that make sense? Okay? Good phone number eight eight eight nine three 888 01:18:00.079 --> 01:18:06.479 four seven eight seven four. We got a whacked out Hillary Clinton's story. 889 01:18:08.279 --> 01:18:12.600 Since this whole hour's off the rails, and we'll get to it coming up 890 01:18:12.640 --> 01:18:15.319 here in just a few minutes. It is the case O Day Radio program. 891 01:18:15.439 --> 01:18:18.039 Hang on, here's what you need to know going back to the Clinton 892 01:18:18.079 --> 01:18:24.520 administration. Obviously you probably are old enough to remember the Monica Lewinsky scandal, 893 01:18:24.640 --> 01:18:30.760 right and that whole thing, and it had to and it always does. 894 01:18:30.800 --> 01:18:34.560 Whenever I see these politicians like they're standing in front of a bunch of microphones 895 01:18:34.640 --> 01:18:39.039 going yeah, I'm sorry I sent that picture might junk to the fifteen year 896 01:18:39.039 --> 01:18:45.960 old and their spouses standing there. I mean, that's just not normal. 897 01:18:45.319 --> 01:18:47.720 And then you know, it'd be the spouses turn. They'll be like, 898 01:18:47.760 --> 01:18:51.239 you know, we we we want some privacy during this time in our family. 899 01:18:51.399 --> 01:18:55.960 But my you know, my husband or my wife. I guess in 900 01:18:56.000 --> 01:19:00.359 some instances with the chick who was combing the hair of the congresswoman, you 901 01:19:00.399 --> 01:19:03.359 know, they're still trying to protect and to some extent. I guess I 902 01:19:03.399 --> 01:19:10.039 do get it, because chances are that the largess that that family lives on 903 01:19:10.159 --> 01:19:17.199 and the power and money that comes with it is intrinsically connected to even this. 904 01:19:17.479 --> 01:19:20.960 You know, their garbage spouse, so you want to protect that. 905 01:19:21.079 --> 01:19:24.760 I guess that would be human nature. I just don't know that everyone would 906 01:19:25.359 --> 01:19:31.279 have the lack of a soul to be able to do it. But okay, 907 01:19:32.039 --> 01:19:36.920 but it was even though it wasn't publicly with the Clintons fought out. 908 01:19:38.039 --> 01:19:45.640 According to the biography by Gail she he missus Clinton actually refused to talk to 909 01:19:45.680 --> 01:19:51.079 Bill Clinton for eight months, So they're just just ghosting him around the White 910 01:19:51.079 --> 01:19:58.399 House for eight months. Wouldn't even have a conversation with him eight months. 911 01:20:00.199 --> 01:20:03.680 I'm sure if you out there have been cheated on by a spouse or a 912 01:20:03.800 --> 01:20:11.800 significant other, right you could fathom that level of anger permeating like I'm not 913 01:20:11.920 --> 01:20:15.119 judging her for that. I get it. However, this is where it 914 01:20:15.119 --> 01:20:19.239 gets crazy because you coupled that information, which was in a book which was 915 01:20:19.359 --> 01:20:24.960 well sourced. Right there was multiple White House officials who were just talking about 916 01:20:24.960 --> 01:20:29.920 the chill in the air that was in the White House and yet from the 917 01:20:30.000 --> 01:20:33.399 public facing standpoint, Bill Clinton still having a president and Hillary Clinton, if 918 01:20:33.399 --> 01:20:38.880 you remember, she had she had various things that she worked on. Arguably 919 01:20:38.960 --> 01:20:48.680 she was one of the most in modern history. Involved first ladies and you 920 01:20:48.720 --> 01:20:54.199 know Michelle Obama with her food thing. To a lesser extent, you know 921 01:20:54.520 --> 01:20:58.319 missus Bush. But she was doing a lot of stuff, and in fact, 922 01:20:58.399 --> 01:21:02.159 they would send her, they would send her out on diplomatic missions, 923 01:21:02.439 --> 01:21:06.359 and of course eventually she was Secretary of State. So it all comes together. 924 01:21:08.039 --> 01:21:14.239 And when you partner that story with what I'm about to tell you, 925 01:21:15.760 --> 01:21:20.640 it's a it's a crazy thing. So about eight months after the Lewinsky thing 926 01:21:20.680 --> 01:21:27.520 broke, now we're in mid mid to late March, Hillary has been sent 927 01:21:29.479 --> 01:21:34.079 on a diplomatic fact finding mission. She's in North Africa. She is in 928 01:21:34.399 --> 01:21:41.479 If you remember, at that time, you had Bosnia, Herzegovina, Sarajevo, 929 01:21:42.680 --> 01:21:45.159 you know, you just you had that whole element. You had Slovanedon 930 01:21:45.239 --> 01:21:55.560 Melosovich, who was literally convicted of a committing a modern genocide within at the 931 01:21:55.640 --> 01:21:58.760 Hague, right, So you had all of this stuff going on. I 932 01:21:58.800 --> 01:22:04.359 actually I have a a friend who I've known him for about a year and 933 01:22:04.399 --> 01:22:10.079 a half and he kind of like found himself in our football watching group. 934 01:22:10.359 --> 01:22:13.520 And what I didn't realize because he's got a New York accent, I didn't 935 01:22:13.560 --> 01:22:16.600 realize he literally is from Kosovo. Kosovo is we always? He says, 936 01:22:16.640 --> 01:22:23.079 Kasovo, So I'll trust him, and he's he's he's about five years older 937 01:22:23.119 --> 01:22:29.199 than me. And dude, the stories just bonkers. But when he was 938 01:22:29.239 --> 01:22:30.279 a teenager, they you know, they got the hell out of there. 939 01:22:30.319 --> 01:22:35.159 They went to New York and you can hear his accent on that. But 940 01:22:39.680 --> 01:22:44.880 the US involvement, the NATO alliance and our decision to bomb there was that 941 01:22:45.039 --> 01:22:47.319 was a big deal in his life. And that was a big decision that 942 01:22:47.359 --> 01:22:53.239 the US made. What I didn't realize until Ross actually saw this, Yes, 943 01:22:53.279 --> 01:22:57.399 stay and send it to me. Is it perfectly lines up. On 944 01:22:57.840 --> 01:23:01.520 March twenty first, which is four days before the US decided that they were 945 01:23:01.520 --> 01:23:08.119 going to start flinging missiles into Serbia, a phone call was made by Hillary 946 01:23:08.279 --> 01:23:12.319 to Bill. I remember they had not been on speaking terms except in the 947 01:23:12.359 --> 01:23:17.439 most generica fashions for eight months. Choosing to communicate even simple things through various 948 01:23:17.520 --> 01:23:23.880 aids and staff members. You know that's the whole Yeah, will you tell 949 01:23:23.920 --> 01:23:27.720 my wife blah blah blah, Well you tell then tell my husband this and 950 01:23:27.720 --> 01:23:30.479 then some poor bastards in the middle of having to do the ten can game. 951 01:23:30.079 --> 01:23:34.560 On March twenty first, according to the latest autobiography and backed up by 952 01:23:35.359 --> 01:23:41.319 references in the nineteen ninety nine biography, the context of the phone call was 953 01:23:42.159 --> 01:23:46.000 Hillary Clinton had gone to Sarajevo, North Africa, you name it, and 954 01:23:46.640 --> 01:23:51.960 she had come to the conclusion that the US needed needed to start get militarily 955 01:23:53.000 --> 01:23:58.000 involved and start slinging missiles. And so she made this phone call. And 956 01:23:58.039 --> 01:24:01.800 this is backed by a reporter who was literally on the trip. So Clinton 957 01:24:01.880 --> 01:24:04.600 is saying, look, I'm calling my husband. This is what we're gonna 958 01:24:04.640 --> 01:24:11.520 say, telling reporters this. According to Lucinda Frank's reporter, Clinton argued the 959 01:24:11.600 --> 01:24:15.600 issue in a lengthy phone call that started on the twenty first and then proceeded 960 01:24:15.640 --> 01:24:23.239 over the next two days, all the while demanding that Bill Clinton, as 961 01:24:23.319 --> 01:24:30.239 the president, start bombing stuff, specifically Sarajevo. Hillary, who stated an 962 01:24:30.279 --> 01:24:36.319 open opinion about her husband's hesitancy about using force in Bosnia, was the first 963 01:24:36.359 --> 01:24:42.319 American official to go to Bosnia after the date and peace accords. She talked 964 01:24:42.359 --> 01:24:45.680 to generals I guess, looked at some pictures, eventually went there. From 965 01:24:45.920 --> 01:24:50.800 Kesovo to Egypt, and that is where she started pestering her husband for days 966 01:24:50.840 --> 01:24:57.319 to bomb. Well guess what following those strings of phone calls and a rather 967 01:24:57.439 --> 01:25:01.279 loud conversation with Hillary is her, According to Franks, yelling at Bill Clinton, 968 01:25:01.359 --> 01:25:05.920 quote, you got to bite the bullet man up. The US military 969 01:25:06.119 --> 01:25:15.000 started, we entered, we entered the bombing campaign. So this dude, 970 01:25:15.640 --> 01:25:21.800 this dude messed up, obviously, is you know, cold shoulder is a 971 01:25:21.880 --> 01:25:26.279 very soft description from his wife. He's he's not sleeping on the couch, 972 01:25:26.319 --> 01:25:30.319 but he's sleeping on the couch right for eight months and then when his wife 973 01:25:30.359 --> 01:25:34.359 finally decides she's going to speak to him again, it's only to tell him 974 01:25:34.399 --> 01:25:38.439 that if you don't do this, I'm gonna still be mad at you. 975 01:25:38.640 --> 01:25:44.239 So he bombed a country, so so his wife wouldn't be mad at him. 976 01:25:44.760 --> 01:25:48.000 Who are these people? I'm sorry? And is that an in? 977 01:25:48.399 --> 01:25:54.920 And I will I will ask you and we'll retweet a tweet that has both 978 01:25:54.920 --> 01:26:02.159 of these little chunks. I don't feel like I misrepresented that. I mean, 979 01:26:02.279 --> 01:26:05.279 I look, I'm sure that Bill talked to a few other people, 980 01:26:05.359 --> 01:26:09.960 but you know, here's here's his wife who won't talk to him for eight 981 01:26:10.000 --> 01:26:12.840 months because he can't stop, you know, screwing her out the help. 982 01:26:13.560 --> 01:26:18.399 And then the way that they solve their differences is he he lets her browbeat 983 01:26:18.479 --> 01:26:23.680 him into murdering people with missiles. And it's not Look, it's not to 984 01:26:23.680 --> 01:26:27.520 say that there were good things going on with the Melosovich and everything that was 985 01:26:27.520 --> 01:26:30.680 happening in that part of the world. That being said, I don't feel 986 01:26:30.680 --> 01:26:38.680 like a militarial decisions should be based on a lover's quarrel. But you be 987 01:26:38.800 --> 01:26:42.279 the judge. A little complex to get into that on radio, but I 988 01:26:42.279 --> 01:26:44.359 think he got the gist of it. And make sure you follow us on 989 01:26:44.399 --> 01:26:47.319 Twitter at Casey on the radio. I don't know how else to view that 990 01:26:47.479 --> 01:26:55.560 series of events. When you couple these two book chapters together, that's wild 991 01:26:55.720 --> 01:27:00.520 man, That is crazy. Do you think secretly Millenia was like trying to 992 01:27:00.520 --> 01:27:02.880 get him, like he wouldn't bomb stuff, you know, that was cutting 993 01:27:02.880 --> 01:27:09.640 out his thing, right, Like I don't know who is Slovenia hate. 994 01:27:10.039 --> 01:27:14.000 I don't even know the answer to that. But whoever they got beef with? 995 01:27:14.319 --> 01:27:15.640 Right? You think she's like, come on, hey, come on, 996 01:27:16.800 --> 01:27:23.399 Donald, you got the button? These Slovakians, I guess would that 997 01:27:23.479 --> 01:27:26.239 be the beef? I don't know, right, they've they've had it too 998 01:27:26.279 --> 01:27:30.119 easy, too long. Ye, he was the one hundred and first. 999 01:27:30.720 --> 01:27:34.000 I shouldn't laugh about it, but it just it shows you with what little 1000 01:27:34.159 --> 01:27:45.560 regard for human decency. So our leadership will operate with I guess if if 1001 01:27:45.560 --> 01:27:49.359 there has to be a takeaway, that's it anyway. Forty six rastagic from 1002 01:27:49.359 --> 01:27:54.279 the Weather Channel. Are you ever been in a fight with the wife? 1003 01:27:54.359 --> 01:27:56.960 Right? And it's like, all right, you're on the couch, you're 1004 01:27:57.000 --> 01:27:59.159 in the guest room, right, that's just me. You know, it's 1005 01:27:59.159 --> 01:28:00.840 part of your married long enough, Right, that's part of it. That 1006 01:28:01.000 --> 01:28:06.359 is, did you get out of jail by decimating a country with cruise missiles? 1007 01:28:06.920 --> 01:28:14.079 Or did you have to just like apologize to apology? Yes? I 1008 01:28:14.119 --> 01:28:17.039 think she called them Donald, but I'm just I'm just saying no because it 1009 01:28:17.079 --> 01:28:20.039 was all the stories. Hill was a Clinton going back to the Lensky thing, 1010 01:28:20.119 --> 01:28:24.159 all right, and what's in this book? And it's like I just 1011 01:28:24.279 --> 01:28:29.600 I'm just wondering if Melania ever is like you know what, whoever Slovenians have 1012 01:28:29.720 --> 01:28:32.840 beef with, like, wanted to weaponize her relationship. I suspect she didn't, 1013 01:28:32.960 --> 01:28:40.520 but but what a crazy reason to uh in involve us anyway, For 1014 01:28:41.199 --> 01:28:45.800 this was part of a larger offensive campaign that also included North Africa and you 1015 01:28:45.800 --> 01:28:50.319 know famously the Blackhawk down uh story that we're familiar with a lot of other 1016 01:28:50.359 --> 01:28:55.319 stuff. So dude, crazy, All right, Sorry, I took your 1017 01:28:55.359 --> 01:28:58.560 weather. I'm trying to this. What do you got? Well, a 1018 01:28:58.560 --> 01:29:00.920 little damp right now, a shower filling back in out over the triad, 1019 01:29:01.159 --> 01:29:05.720 even a little thunder near high Point, Winston Sound, Greensboro, Davidson County 1020 01:29:05.760 --> 01:29:11.640 and southwest of a triangle. Now I'll see more rain and thunderstorms filling in, 1021 01:29:11.680 --> 01:29:15.239 so showers even a few thunderstorms around today and tonight and tomorrow. Now, 1022 01:29:15.239 --> 01:29:17.800 tomorrow, the line's going to be more easy, so more triangle than 1023 01:29:17.880 --> 01:29:21.680 tryad of the rain and thunderstorms even on through late tonight where there could be 1024 01:29:21.720 --> 01:29:25.239 an inch or two of rain with less to the west. And then we 1025 01:29:25.319 --> 01:29:28.399 get out of all this by the late weekend into the weekend with sunshine back. 1026 01:29:28.439 --> 01:29:30.800 Beautiful run coming up Friday, been up her sixties, by Saturday in 1027 01:29:30.840 --> 01:29:34.159 the mid seventies, and by Easter Sunday it'll be near eighty degrees.

Well, Good morning, Casey. The 1032 01:29:48.319 --> 01:29:53.520 Tuesday session on Wall Street didn't live up to its early promise. Major averages 1033 01:29:53.560 --> 01:29:56.960 started out higher, but they ended lower. We've got another shot at a 1034 01:29:57.079 --> 01:30:00.560 positive opening this morning, though futures are higher right across us, the board 1035 01:30:00.640 --> 01:30:04.119 now futures or up one hundred sixty two. President Biden is saying the federal 1036 01:30:04.159 --> 01:30:09.520 government should pay to rebuild the bridge that collapsed in Baltimore, and the President 1037 01:30:09.640 --> 01:30:14.880 is asking Congress to approve of price tag expected to run into the billions of 1038 01:30:14.920 --> 01:30:19.279 dollars. The latest rental report from realtor dot com says renting is now less 1039 01:30:19.319 --> 01:30:24.600 expensive than buying a starter home in all of the nation's major metros. In 1040 01:30:24.680 --> 01:30:29.039 Raleigh, the median monthly rent is nine hundred ninety nine dollars less than the 1041 01:30:29.039 --> 01:30:33.479 monthly cost of homeownership. Demand for home loans eased last week. Mortgage bankers 1042 01:30:33.560 --> 01:30:39.920 report total application volume is down seven tens percent. Higher energy bills are weighing 1043 01:30:39.920 --> 01:30:45.520 on our buying power. Primerica's monthly Household Budget Index says a rapid rise and 1044 01:30:45.600 --> 01:30:49.159 gas prices has had an impact on middle income purchasing power, which was lower 1045 01:30:49.239 --> 01:30:54.760 last month than it was in January. In case, it's been a tumultuous 1046 01:30:54.920 --> 01:31:00.840 week for former Republican National Committee Chair Rona McDaniel. She was hired and fired 1047 01:31:00.000 --> 01:31:04.920 by NBC. The network planned to make McDaniel a use contributor, but it's 1048 01:31:05.000 --> 01:31:11.880 progressive on air host protested, so NBC decided it would be difficult for McDaniel 1049 01:31:11.960 --> 01:31:15.319 to get much airtime, and she was let go. Casey, she gotta 1050 01:31:15.359 --> 01:31:19.039 get paid too. It looks like because like the lawyers and I saw some 1051 01:31:19.079 --> 01:31:23.840 of the statements like they had signed on the dotted line. So god knows 1052 01:31:23.840 --> 01:31:28.680 what that's gonna cost them.
