1
00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:40.719
M R. Good morning everybody,
and well it's not a good morning.

2
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:44.479
I can't believe I just said that
out loud, How insensitive of me.

3
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:51.479
It is a very, very very
horrible morning, a very sad morning,

4
00:00:54.399 --> 00:01:03.599
and unfortunately I have to be the
bearer of bad news here. I had

5
00:01:03.599 --> 00:01:07.239
to digest this information prior to the
show, committed to memories, so that

6
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:15.480
I could now pass it along to
you, and I hope that all of

7
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:23.000
you were You're in a safe place
right now. Perhaps the padded room in

8
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:29.560
your home. We all have one
of those right near whatever that item is

9
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:33.480
in your home that your wife decided
there needed to be seventy two pillows upon

10
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:38.359
being a couch or perhaps your bed, not pillows you're allowed to use,

11
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:42.640
mind you, No, no,
no, no, those those pillows go

12
00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:48.079
off to the side, perhaps for
you know, one day if needed,

13
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:59.000
like a nuclear fallout of some sort. Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert, Jimmy

14
00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:05.920
Kimmel, and Seth Myers have all
announced that they're shutting down as the Hollywood

15
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:13.479
Writers Strike kicks off to day for
the first time in fifteen years. Are

16
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:19.520
you all okay? You guys got
you're doing okay? I mean think about

17
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:28.719
this disruption to um, to your
your old evening routine not being able.

18
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:34.240
I'm assuming you watch one one or
more live and then get a couple of

19
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:45.439
TVs in their TiVo the rest,
because that's still a thing not gonna be

20
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:55.560
there, and um the pain keeps
on from there. Not only will America's

21
00:02:55.599 --> 00:03:06.680
favorite late night, nonpartisan, humor
filled interview slash comedy variety shows find themselves

22
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:13.960
on a hiatus, while the eleven
thousand, five hundred members of the Screenwriters

23
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:21.840
Guild fight for a bigger chunk of
the pie from primarily Netflix and Disney,

24
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:27.719
but also writers for those two entities
and various other streaming entities. The writers

25
00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:34.240
who handle the seventy two projects currently
underway in the Marvel Universe, all of

26
00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:43.639
the Star Trek writers, all of
the writers for the the New History offerings,

27
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:46.919
where all of a sudden, Cleopatra
is no longer a Macedonian Greek but

28
00:03:50.520 --> 00:04:02.840
rather a much mark, much more
darker complexed individual because progress where all of

29
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:11.080
the weird new many of them romantically
themed. You know, British old timey

30
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:19.759
Victorian things are as multiracial as you
can imagine, for you know, fifteenth

31
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:29.879
century Britain, where messages are inserted
into everything you consume from a media standpoint,

32
00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:34.680
because you're just a big dummy and
you don't get it. But they're

33
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:40.560
virtuous and they understand and they understand
why, perhaps, I don't know,

34
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:45.439
big green Marvel characters would all of
a sudden be overpowered versus somebody who had

35
00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:49.480
the power literally saved the Earth multiple
occasions and had been donning the power for

36
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:57.600
literally decades. Gone are the days
of the Mary Sues roster? Are you're

37
00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:00.120
gonna be able to function without Mary
Sues being shoved down your throat on the

38
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:08.040
daily? I mean, is that
something that? Frankly it's Is it even

39
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:10.879
worth getting up anymore? Is what
I guess I throw out to all of

40
00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:20.519
you, because the Writers Guild of
America has announced that failure to agree on

41
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:26.399
a new three year contract their new
one expired just after midnight. By the

42
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:33.240
way, well that's um, that's
not something they're ready to sign off on.

43
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:39.560
And I don't I frankly, I
don't know if I'm going to be

44
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:45.040
able to to go a day,
let alone a week and not finding out

45
00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:48.480
that my understanding of a popular franchise
that's uh, you know, in some

46
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:54.720
cases older than me. Even everything
I thought was Cannon is no longer canon

47
00:05:54.759 --> 00:06:01.399
because you know, the message and
stuff, or my favorite character for many

48
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:08.199
many years is all of a sudden
either transgender or gay or some sort of

49
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:14.439
political activist. You know, that's
that realization that you're finding out on almost

50
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:15.839
a weekly back. I don't know
how I'm going to be able to do

51
00:06:15.879 --> 00:06:24.600
it the dark days at the Oday
household, Ross, are you and the

52
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:27.839
family probably just gonna huddle in a
dark room? I don't, I don't.

53
00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:30.120
I don't know how everyone's going to
handle all this. What are you

54
00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:33.040
going to do without Mary Sues?
Knew Mary Sues in your life? Every

55
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:39.000
week? Do people still watch network
television? I guess maybe they do.

56
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:41.920
I don't know. But it's also
like Disney and Netflix and all that stuff,

57
00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:45.879
so and so that that's Marvel and
Star Wars and all of that.

58
00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:49.680
But yeah, I think there are
some to do watch the network television.

59
00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:55.480
I mean, there's got to be, right, because why would you do

60
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:58.519
it if literally no one was watching. I know that we joked no one's

61
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:02.600
watching, but but yeah, not
having any of the late night shows,

62
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:12.480
oh man, I don't know what
we're going to do luckily we don't have

63
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:16.720
writers here, just you know,
Ross and I say, whatever stupid thing

64
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:23.000
pops into our brain. So,
uh, you guess you're stuck with us.

65
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:27.240
Joey, what's up come morning?
Casey? How you doing, buddy?

66
00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:30.639
I'm devastated, sir. Yeah,
me too. I'm not gonna build

67
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:39.399
a seat of view nah that who
No, I'm gonna write for the view

68
00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:43.680
now. Unfortunately, I think that
they just they just drop acid and then,

69
00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:46.079
you know, say stupid stuff.
I think that that's probably gonna keep

70
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:51.360
trucking. Man. Oh and they
need to drop a little morning that well

71
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:56.600
in order to be relevant. That's
fair, That's fair, all right,

72
00:07:56.759 --> 00:08:00.279
I have a good day. Yeah, look at that Joey's favorite shows still

73
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:07.720
on the air. Yeah, I
don't I think that'll probably that'll remain unscathed.

74
00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:13.399
Michelle. Yes, hey, Casey, what what do you think about

75
00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:22.680
maybe possibly chat GPT replaces all those
writers after they go on strike. I

76
00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:26.759
think that if chat GPT replaced them, you wouldn't notice a difference, because,

77
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:28.920
as we've talked about, the AI
is super woke. You've seen all

78
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:33.960
of the examples out there. I
know that all those writers would be out

79
00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:37.240
of a job. Wouldn't they.
Well, I mean that that is a

80
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:43.559
thing, and somebody may play a
cutesy little experience or experiment and we'll see,

81
00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:50.279
but I would not expect it to
result in some sort of restoration of

82
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:56.080
the Hollywood product that people know and
love. So they're freaking out because the

83
00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:01.879
Workers movie is doing well, So
I just thought I would add that.

84
00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:09.240
But you know, you may want
to renegotiate and try to do a little

85
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:15.159
bit better job negotiating because you may
get the place. That's all I wanted

86
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:18.279
to say. Thanks, Casey.
Yeah, well it's like thank you,

87
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:20.120
Michelle. You know, it's like
if the callers, if you guys want

88
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:22.480
on strike, we'd have to get
like a magic eight ball or something.

89
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:28.200
So I'm just warning you. Just
know that, you know, we got

90
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:31.600
we have that, we got that
plan in our pocket. We're not afraid

91
00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:35.960
to use it. So keep it
in mind, all right. Eight eight

92
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.840
eight nine three four seven eight seven
four. Coming up on the show speaking

93
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:43.399
to Mario Brothers movie. We'll get
into that because something amazing has happened,

94
00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:56.039
apparently for the first time. Yeah, I can't even what evil geniuses have

95
00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:00.159
come up with. What I'm going
to tell you it's pretty crazy. Is

96
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:03.519
he speaking of crazy? How do
you not notice a prisoner's gone for over

97
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:07.039
a day? I mean, I
understand the oh he made a paper mache

98
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:11.399
dummy of himself under a blankie and
they didn't find out for four hours,

99
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:18.879
right or Andy du Frame with his
poster shenanigans. But in reality, I

100
00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:22.600
don't know how the hell this happens. And yet this is um, this

101
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:28.120
is what we're expected to believe up
there in Virginia. And uh surprise,

102
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:31.840
sex dungeons. That's the thing on
the show todayd right now, six seventeen

103
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:43.360
and we'll be right back celebrating ten
years. It's still going strong. Thank

104
00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:48.919
you. Casey's on five double PTI
in the Triad and one O six one

105
00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:54.519
FM Talk in the Triangle. All
right, well, today is actually it's

106
00:10:54.559 --> 00:11:01.759
more than just the writer's strike kicking
off and your favorite beloved and ratings positive

107
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:07.120
obviously late night shows under the Gun, as well as all of your favorite

108
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:13.879
woke Marvel and Star Trek and Netflix
series and oh Man, tough times out

109
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:20.879
there, but today also marks apparently
the end of the COVID nineteen federal mandate

110
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:28.639
for employees, contractors, and other
federally funded workers as well as international travelers,

111
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:31.000
because we're still under that. And
actually it doesn't mark the end of

112
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:35.879
it. It marks the announcement of
the end. The technical end will be

113
00:11:35.960 --> 00:11:41.279
May eleventh, at which point the
Biden administration will officially declare an end to

114
00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:50.440
the public health emergency, mostly because
by now they've probably thoroughly scrubbed the existence

115
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:54.879
of anyone who would want to actually
do business with the government and a contracting

116
00:11:54.919 --> 00:12:01.759
standpoint, but also retain body autonomy
as it pertains to vaccines and other things.

117
00:12:01.799 --> 00:12:05.360
Said. Yeah, so you know, if you were a contractor,

118
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:07.759
if you were anybody wanted to do
business with the government till now, you

119
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:15.879
had to meet these vaccine requirements.
Even though arguably the science as it is

120
00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:22.200
understood even by the mainstream media has
changed drastically, you still had to.

121
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:26.919
So in a way, this was
about purging the pocket books of any dissenters.

122
00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:37.639
And so now it's now, it's
been a long frigging time, and

123
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:43.679
hopefully they've killed off any of those
people who might think for themselves. So,

124
00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:46.879
yeah, you know, this is
really the federal government doing it is

125
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:50.279
supposed to be the least of the
options, and the sense that it's supposed

126
00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:56.639
to be indicative of only when absolutely
necessary, and these scoundrels decided it had

127
00:12:56.639 --> 00:13:00.879
to go all the way till May
eleventh. And there's a whole apparatus of

128
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:07.200
compliance stuff here that expanded greatly,
which I'm sure those employees, uh,

129
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:11.200
you know, they have offices of
compliance just on this issue, because it's

130
00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:16.399
it's a significant task to keep the
ninety eight percent compliance which they're currently at

131
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:22.600
where all all workers and actual contractors
have had at least one dose of the

132
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:28.399
vaccine or impending or approved exception.
So I'm sure that those workers will will

133
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:33.720
will, we'll stay on. So
yeah, big stuff, big stuff,

134
00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:41.159
big stuff. In the news,
Gordon Lightfoot died. That's that happened today

135
00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:46.279
as well, or that was announced
overnight, I should say. So busy,

136
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:50.039
busy, busy, busy, busy. Supreme Court's got a big thing

137
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:56.159
coming up. And this, oh
man, I read this this morning from

138
00:13:56.399 --> 00:14:07.080
ABC News, and let me just
say this. It is phenomenal timing that

139
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:15.759
in the article they were able to
get the photography necessary completed before these four

140
00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:22.519
hundred these excuse me, these four
hundred and seventy anti gay bills, that's

141
00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:31.399
their words across sixteen states found themselves
signed into action. According to ABC News,

142
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:46.480
LGBTQ plus lawmakers find themselves fighting to
quote exist. State Senator Chevron Jones

143
00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:52.000
can often be seen at the Florida
Capitol greeting staff and colleagues with a smile

144
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:54.960
or a laugh. But when he's
alone, it's a different story. The

145
00:14:56.039 --> 00:15:00.720
outward expression is to show God's love, he says. That's what I was

146
00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:05.720
taught, said Jones. I but
I have enough tiers in my car to

147
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:09.039
fill a lake for Jones, who
is gay. The past two years have

148
00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:18.399
been emotionally draining as Florida past a
flurry of anti LGBTQ plus legislation. More

149
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:24.480
than two hundred gay lawmakers across the
country feel like Jones at a time when

150
00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:31.039
anti gay legislation is flourishing, as
if they were under personal attack and continually

151
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:37.480
fighting and defending their right to exist. The issues exploded into the spotlight last

152
00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:43.080
week when Montana Republicans voted to bar
Democrat reb Zoe Zephyr, who is transgender,

153
00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:48.840
from the House floor after a standoff, well, not standoff in the

154
00:15:48.840 --> 00:15:58.720
traditional sense, you mean incredibly disruptive
non parliamentary stoppage of all business, kind

155
00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:03.639
of like what you saw there in
Tennessee, right where a set of rules

156
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:08.960
that are part of the process were
violated repeatedly and intentionally for public grandstanding.

157
00:16:11.639 --> 00:16:14.879
But like I said, luckily,
I'm sitting here, I'm looking at the

158
00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:18.519
article. They were able to get
a photo of Jones before he I'm assuming

159
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:22.240
Ross they just fade away like Michael
J. Fox in Back to the Future

160
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:26.519
when he's on the stage looking at
the photo. Um, why there's more

161
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:32.399
to this story, and I know
you know that some context coming up on

162
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:44.559
the kc ODA radio program show.
After the show, he's on the iHeartRadio

163
00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:49.720
app search or the podcast on the
iHeart Radio app. Oh my god,

164
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:57.200
I just had a I just had
a realization over the over the commercial break.

165
00:16:57.240 --> 00:17:04.960
I'm sorry, you can go.
Tom having a hard time emotionally with

166
00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:14.720
the writer's strike with Disney and Netflix
and late night shows and all of your

167
00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:23.759
beloved stuff that you watch and get
indoctrinated by. I'm assuming that the Hays

168
00:17:23.880 --> 00:17:30.480
for Sheriff Twitch channel also on hiatus. We're fine, fine, trouble un

169
00:17:30.519 --> 00:17:34.640
along, but the writer's strike there, Yeah, I know there's no union

170
00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:40.480
here, but uh, but they're
on strike and they write the stuff for

171
00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:45.039
the entertainment, and arguably that's entertainment. I guess for some people, Um,

172
00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:51.480
others it's where they go to get
banned. Um how how how will

173
00:17:51.519 --> 00:17:56.000
you move forward? And you have
fresh gebbles like sizzle reels I saw posted

174
00:17:56.440 --> 00:18:00.519
on Twitter. Yeah, and the
more will be produced very cited. We're

175
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:06.319
gonna be taking the Twitch streams and
we're gonna be streamlining, streamlining them and

176
00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:10.079
cutting them down and putting them on
YouTube. So I'm very wow. Yeah,

177
00:18:10.119 --> 00:18:12.640
it's gonna be a new endeavor.
I'm getting into. It's yourself a

178
00:18:12.680 --> 00:18:18.200
little partner program before you get ousted
for you know, some innocuous comment he

179
00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:22.359
said, do you watch it's a
Gundham? I do not. Oh okay,

180
00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:26.200
dude, you should. That's one
of my favorite YouTube channels. You

181
00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:29.359
should, uh because it definitely the
stuff he's talking about too is right now.

182
00:18:29.400 --> 00:18:30.960
I was like super big into YouTube, but then I got back and

183
00:18:32.079 --> 00:18:33.039
now I'm into like, you know, I got into Twitch and now I'm

184
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:37.319
just on YouTube as much. But
he does twitch too. He does twitch

185
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:42.599
too, But I find is produced
things because he's kind of like um critical

186
00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:47.240
drinker, you know, he's putting
stuff out that's kind of in that range

187
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:49.640
and a lot of on those topics
kind of stuff. So but he got

188
00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:55.359
basically he got deep platform or got
deep platform, but he got kicked out

189
00:18:55.400 --> 00:19:00.920
the partner program. And they're like
stories crazy super two does. They're super

190
00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:04.440
strict now, like more so than
before. Well you wouldn't want to have

191
00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:08.640
fun or you know, ideas dissenting. And he was able to get back

192
00:19:08.759 --> 00:19:14.240
in, but it was like they're
forcing guys on YouTube to do shorts and

193
00:19:14.359 --> 00:19:19.759
stuff, and basically they're using as
an opportunity to purge people because that in

194
00:19:19.880 --> 00:19:22.880
the shorts, what they're doing is
they're editing down some of their longer form

195
00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:26.480
stuff right to meet these requirements so
they can continue to be in favor with

196
00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:33.880
the algorithm. And and then if
you have, you know, if you're

197
00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:41.720
not one percent in lockstep with the
current accepted thoughts, they then will they'll

198
00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:45.839
go and mass report them for posting
content, right because right, the shorts

199
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:51.519
can't violate obviously they're ts and their
ts is crazy political and out there.

200
00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:55.880
But also like if you swear,
you're not allowed to, like no profanity

201
00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:57.559
in the shorts at all, So
if you do that you'll be demonetized.

202
00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:00.480
It's like they're just looking for a
different as they can check to get the

203
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:04.640
people off the platform. They know
why, and then and some of it's

204
00:20:04.680 --> 00:20:07.319
so arbitrary. It's like, and
I told you this. When I watch

205
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:11.720
YouTube videos, Pete, they will
intentionally not say COVID. They won't say

206
00:20:11.759 --> 00:20:15.920
the word rape or sexual assault,
even not in a joking manner, even

207
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:19.359
if it's a in the most clinical
manner, or if they're having an important,

208
00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:25.640
very serious discussion, like you know, if they were having a discussion

209
00:20:25.720 --> 00:20:33.200
about the percentage of minor females who
find themselves sexually assaulted who are part of

210
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:41.680
these caravans, right, which is
an incredibly sad statistic and something that requires

211
00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:48.079
serious discussion because when you incentivize people
stacking at the border, it also increases

212
00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:52.559
the likelihood of these horrific crimes.
Or a discussion about legislation being proposed in

213
00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:59.000
Florida where they're talking about the death
penalty for certain child sex crimes, which

214
00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:02.440
we're going to talk about here on
the show. You can't have those discussion

215
00:21:02.519 --> 00:21:07.720
and use those words. No,
same thing. They demonetize the channel that

216
00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:11.359
was about World War two, and
like would post like you know, Holocaust

217
00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:17.079
Hitler documentaries, right, but they
were just historical documentaries like you know.

218
00:21:17.160 --> 00:21:18.640
And then he invaded this to daton
Land and like stuff like that, and

219
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:22.599
they're like, no, boom,
you're demonetized because you're Nazi. This is

220
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:29.079
Nazi content. You can't look.
I understand it's a heavy lift, right,

221
00:21:29.559 --> 00:21:33.599
And there are from a YouTube standpoint
and I you know, it is

222
00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:37.119
their platform. You're gonna have to
have certain standards, right. You don't

223
00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:41.079
want people posting child porn on there, right, you don't want, um,

224
00:21:42.359 --> 00:21:45.960
you don't want people that are going
to do things, at least from

225
00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:55.000
a monetization standpoint, um, where
people are posting things that an advertiser may

226
00:21:55.279 --> 00:22:00.160
not want to be associated with.
But um, well, hold on Boston,

227
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:07.119
Paul sending me feverishly, sending me
emails this morning. You don't want

228
00:22:07.160 --> 00:22:12.920
to. You don't want to put
at risk your your revenue stream. Right,

229
00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:17.400
So you're gonna have to keep an
eye on it. And the amount

230
00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:18.839
of content. I saw the number
one time. The amount of minutes of

231
00:22:18.960 --> 00:22:25.799
video that's uploaded to YouTube every day
is just astronomical, right, something like

232
00:22:25.960 --> 00:22:29.319
in your entire lifetime, you wouldn't
be able to sit and watch what is

233
00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:33.680
uploaded in like seven seconds or something. It's crazy, But to your point,

234
00:22:33.759 --> 00:22:37.599
if you're going to build these algorithms, some stuff seems pretty obvious that

235
00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:41.920
you'd be able to program around,
right, you know, even if you're

236
00:22:41.960 --> 00:22:48.680
looking for consistent keywords or footage.
Right, they're so good at the computer

237
00:22:48.799 --> 00:22:56.119
recognizing footage for the purpose of determining
whether there is a copyright infringement. I

238
00:22:56.440 --> 00:23:00.559
you know, I I tried to
upload I was gonna start uploading our parody

239
00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:04.640
songs on the YouTube, right,
And with the first two I ever tried

240
00:23:04.680 --> 00:23:11.200
to do it, they immediately,
immediately they got taken down because you know,

241
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:17.799
it's listening and it's hearing music that
sounds the bars down familiar enough,

242
00:23:17.880 --> 00:23:22.519
they just assume I'm uploading copyrighted music. However, it meets the requirement for

243
00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:26.599
parody under their own terms of service. If you listen to the words,

244
00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:33.640
it's obviously a fundamental rewriting of the
song for comedic or or even political messaging.

245
00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:36.359
I mean, it meets exactly what
is the requirement there. And then

246
00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:40.480
I got to sit there and go
through and challenge it, and I'm like,

247
00:23:40.599 --> 00:23:42.880
you know, what if I'm if
I had to spend thirty minutes of

248
00:23:42.960 --> 00:23:47.759
my time screwing around with two parody
songs, there's no way in hell I'm

249
00:23:47.799 --> 00:23:51.759
putting this content up there. So
then my question is, if you're going

250
00:23:51.799 --> 00:23:57.440
to be putting content from your your
stream, you know you have drops that

251
00:23:57.599 --> 00:24:02.920
you use in there, right,
so people come on and they can you

252
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:07.400
know, they can put little snippets
of audio for bits or whatever and it'll

253
00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:11.279
be a little a little drop of
a movie or whatever. Right, give

254
00:24:11.279 --> 00:24:14.559
me an example of one of the
drops you used, just so people know,

255
00:24:14.640 --> 00:24:18.359
because my brain's just not working from
like movie like during the twitch stream.

256
00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:22.160
Yeah, so if somebody wants to
spend twenty five bits or whatever,

257
00:24:22.400 --> 00:24:25.319
oh well, we pretty much have
like everything that's on the show button bar

258
00:24:25.839 --> 00:24:30.480
Okay, that would but we've got
like Joe Dirt drops, We've got yeah,

259
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:33.000
stuff for movies like Ricky Bobby,
I'm on Fire. Okay, so

260
00:24:33.680 --> 00:24:38.519
yeah, the on Fire. Um, that's the kind of stuff that you

261
00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:42.960
uploaded and then boom, you get
a strike or it'll turn into a problem,

262
00:24:44.039 --> 00:24:48.599
and so it's it's a real tough
put for YouTube creators. Man.

263
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:52.200
This is what because I was exporting
Twitch streams to YouTube and I had to

264
00:24:52.279 --> 00:24:56.000
stop because we have a lot of
those sounders an interaction that the audience uses

265
00:24:56.039 --> 00:24:59.240
on the twitch stream, but you
would upload it to YouTube and YouTube would

266
00:24:59.240 --> 00:25:00.960
be like, Nope, you can't
publish this because of this two second clip.

267
00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:03.480
So now, like I said,
we're gonna be streamlining and cutting them

268
00:25:03.519 --> 00:25:07.119
down, So cutting all that out
and just like the meats of the streams,

269
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:10.759
and honestly, I'm just gonna use
it as a way to filter people

270
00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:14.960
to the twitch channel. Yeah.
Well, and that's so if somebody's on

271
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:17.359
YouTube and they've never heard of the
twitch channel before and they're like, hey,

272
00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:18.839
who's this guy, then they follow
that link to the twitch. I

273
00:25:18.920 --> 00:25:25.960
mean. So, um, so
the writers strike not going to be impacted.

274
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:27.799
You're gonna it will not. I
have I have another question on the

275
00:25:27.839 --> 00:25:32.160
writer strike. So in the bottom
of the hour news they said that they'll

276
00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:36.559
be taking to the picking lines.
How do the writers how do writers strikers

277
00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:44.759
um? How do they create their
signs? You know what I'm asking Like,

278
00:25:44.920 --> 00:25:48.319
if you're if you're a writer and
you're on strike, how do you

279
00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:52.559
make the signs with which you walk
around on I think that's that's the last

280
00:25:52.599 --> 00:25:56.480
thing that you do before you strike. Oh, so you better be spot

281
00:25:56.559 --> 00:26:00.920
on. So if there's a wrinkler, yeah, there's there's a specific timeline

282
00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:04.039
you have to follow, so you
have to write all of your hell no,

283
00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:07.039
we won't go kind of signs.
I mean, you're time right,

284
00:26:07.079 --> 00:26:11.200
I mean, you're a Hollywood scriptwriter. You're a man of principles and standards

285
00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:18.440
and things. You can't sway from
those, just rock solid. It's the

286
00:26:18.519 --> 00:26:22.359
old it's the old Mitch Edberg joke
kind of I'm against protesting, but I

287
00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:27.039
don't know how to show it or
something I can't remember. But now if

288
00:26:27.039 --> 00:26:33.119
you're if you're a writer and you're
refusing to write because principles and negotiation and

289
00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:34.519
whatnot, I don't know how you
come up with your signs. So Ross

290
00:26:34.519 --> 00:26:37.640
says, you just gotta get ahead
of it. These are the questions we

291
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:41.519
asked. What was this email?
All right, hold on, do do

292
00:26:41.640 --> 00:26:52.720
do Boston Paul? What is t
OS t O s um? I was

293
00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:55.440
going to make up something and lie
to you. It's terms of service,

294
00:26:55.559 --> 00:27:00.680
Boston Paul. Terms of service.
So basically all that stuff that you click

295
00:27:00.759 --> 00:27:06.720
accept and agree to, that's you
know, nine thousand page long pages long

296
00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:11.799
that nobody ever reads. That's your
terms of service. So that's what that

297
00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:14.079
means. By the way, Ross, did he said it? You?

298
00:27:14.160 --> 00:27:18.000
Boston Paul sent me a picture of
his new granddaughter flipping us off yesterday?

299
00:27:18.240 --> 00:27:21.799
Did I did you see that?
I may have to forward that to you.

300
00:27:22.279 --> 00:27:26.680
Oh well wait wait he is new
granddaughter. Yeah, so it straight

301
00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:30.240
out the womb. Huh. Well, I think a little blanket doing the

302
00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:33.640
old finger thing that all the babies
do. Oh, it's holding a bottle,

303
00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:37.799
which I'm assuming has some sort of
spirit inside of it, you know,

304
00:27:37.759 --> 00:27:41.759
I'm assuming that's how Boston babies they
start him young. But yes,

305
00:27:41.960 --> 00:27:45.000
well, congrats to Boston Paul.
Well, he didn't do anything. I

306
00:27:45.079 --> 00:27:48.000
mean, well he did. He
produced the person that produced the person.

307
00:27:51.039 --> 00:27:52.880
He put that time in, he
put in the you know, all the

308
00:27:52.000 --> 00:27:56.920
time raising that person, keeping him
away from the dangers of Wetty Boulder.

309
00:27:56.000 --> 00:28:00.480
He busted wetty Boulder. You know. Oh really yeah, that's oh yeah,

310
00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:03.079
how silly of you? How could
I forget hold on? Let me

311
00:28:03.200 --> 00:28:14.119
forward this to you. Uh yeah, So he says, my three month

312
00:28:14.279 --> 00:28:17.359
or three month oh, I said, three week three month old granddaughter has

313
00:28:17.400 --> 00:28:21.920
a message for you patriot haters,
and it's a baby with a bottle that

314
00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:26.079
probably has Bailey's and Irish whiskey in
it or milk, I don't know,

315
00:28:26.599 --> 00:28:30.640
flipping us off. So there,
I just forwarded that out to your email,

316
00:28:33.359 --> 00:28:34.640
very rude, and look at that. I even took time out of

317
00:28:34.680 --> 00:28:40.039
the busy show to explain what terms
of service were, because I don't hold

318
00:28:40.079 --> 00:28:47.079
grudges. We're a class act around
here. So anyway, Yes, ABC

319
00:28:47.319 --> 00:28:56.160
News with a big piece about how
the LGBTQ plus lawmakers are fighting for their

320
00:28:56.200 --> 00:29:04.839
literally trying to just exist, talking
about the four hundred and seventy anti gay

321
00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:08.000
bills making their way through states.
Well, let me just point this out.

322
00:29:08.519 --> 00:29:12.200
So of those four hundred and seventy, really they run the gamut because

323
00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:21.319
we have fifty states and they cover
Wait, what is this the right?

324
00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:23.200
Did you just tell a Stephen Right
show? Is that a Stephen Right choke?

325
00:29:23.799 --> 00:29:30.640
I probably did. I probably heard
that somewhere. This is why I

326
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:33.880
don't listen to a lot of other
talk radio, by the way, because

327
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:38.480
I don't want to be subconsciously influenced
necessarily in coming up with topic takes.

328
00:29:40.599 --> 00:29:44.519
Twitter will do that to some extent, but with talk radio, you know,

329
00:29:44.880 --> 00:29:48.599
you try to have some originality,
and i'd like to think on this

330
00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:52.200
show we do things that other shows
don't. But yeah, probably I did

331
00:29:52.359 --> 00:29:56.000
give me a YouTube strike. So
anyway, back to the four hundred and

332
00:29:56.039 --> 00:30:02.200
seventy anti gay bills, they really
only touch on four issues. And because

333
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:07.720
we are a peatree dish of fifty
states, there is a certain repetition to

334
00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:11.960
it. So when you throw that
number out, in reality, if this

335
00:30:11.240 --> 00:30:15.400
was laws that were being crafted at
a federal level to cover all fifty states,

336
00:30:15.559 --> 00:30:19.400
likely they could be accomplished in a
singular bill. But it sounds more

337
00:30:19.480 --> 00:30:26.039
overwhelming to say that there's four hundred
and seventy bills out there trying to unexist

338
00:30:26.799 --> 00:30:33.880
gay lawmakers. Let's see men in
women's sports, gender affirming care for kids

339
00:30:33.640 --> 00:30:41.359
children at stripper style drag shows,
and the gender ideology and sex ad within

340
00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:47.440
K twelve education. The bills almost
exclusively covered those four issues, So you're

341
00:30:47.440 --> 00:30:52.559
really talking about four issues. And
it's not as though there's a bill purging

342
00:30:52.720 --> 00:31:00.440
anyone who identifies as LGBTQ plus from
existence or from a serve let alone existence.

343
00:31:02.119 --> 00:31:06.279
And I would I would point out
that they will continue to exist.

344
00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:11.640
They will continue too, as long
as they're abiding by all the same rules

345
00:31:11.720 --> 00:31:17.319
that all other lawmakers are expected to
follow. They will continue to participate and

346
00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:22.000
be heard and vote and represent their
constituents and any issues that they may find

347
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:30.079
important. But they're not not existing. They're not fading out of existence like

348
00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:33.599
I mentioned, like Michael J.
Fox there on the stage where he's watching

349
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:38.920
him and his siblings disappear from the
photo. That's just absurd. If if

350
00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:42.319
I let me test this theory,
Ross, can you google something for me

351
00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:48.680
real quick? Will you see if
Pete Botagedge exists? Still? All right?

352
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:51.720
Ross is gonna let me check?
Yes he does? Oh wow,

353
00:31:51.880 --> 00:31:59.799
still right there? Huh that's crazy? So um yeah. But you know,

354
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:05.599
hey, it's it is a hell
of a a fearmongering article there,

355
00:32:05.680 --> 00:32:13.960
rather than you know, discussing the
issues and pre arguably they exist with more

356
00:32:14.079 --> 00:32:20.279
support In New York City, where
and I kid you not, police are

357
00:32:20.359 --> 00:32:24.359
now recommending in the Mayor's office is
encouraging all residents of New York City to

358
00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:34.920
purchase Apple air tags and place them
somewhere hidden in their vehicles to help combat

359
00:32:35.039 --> 00:32:38.680
auto theft. When you know there's
other ways to combat auto theft, like

360
00:32:39.960 --> 00:32:46.119
holding to account auto thieves in they
have a whole task force and that is

361
00:32:46.319 --> 00:32:51.839
on the hunt for somebody who defecated
on a pride flag. Now, somebody

362
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:58.960
shouldn't go and vandalize somebody's property.
However, the property crime and ignoring of

363
00:32:59.119 --> 00:33:05.000
it that is is rampant in many
of these big cities is legendary. Right.

364
00:33:05.640 --> 00:33:08.559
We see these stories all the time, and the public defecation stuff too,

365
00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:13.799
especially in the Bay Area. Yet
they have a whole task force and

366
00:33:14.359 --> 00:33:16.799
the news media is going along with
this, looking for an individual who may

367
00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:22.200
have defecated on somebody's pride flag and
then grabbed a second flag that was nearby

368
00:33:22.279 --> 00:33:28.440
and used it as TP. Should
that person be held accountable for theft and

369
00:33:28.559 --> 00:33:36.079
vandalism? Absolutely should. The immense
amount of NYPD resources that is being thrown

370
00:33:36.160 --> 00:33:40.279
out here and the coverage that goes
along with it outweigh the thousands of other

371
00:33:40.400 --> 00:33:45.920
instances of crime which are largely ignored, and if even the person is caught,

372
00:33:45.079 --> 00:33:50.720
the punishments are simply not being told
out. No, it all sounds

373
00:33:50.759 --> 00:34:00.960
absurd. Six fifty one hang on
a near decade on the calendar and celebrating

374
00:34:00.039 --> 00:34:04.480
ten years on the air. This
is one oh six one FM Talk in

375
00:34:04.519 --> 00:34:08.960
the Triangle and News Talk ninety four
five w PTI and the Triad. All

376
00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:13.039
right, a whole lot of chit
chat there and that segment, But we

377
00:34:13.079 --> 00:34:17.760
could confuse everybody with acronyms for stuff. Boston call what is kep? You

378
00:34:17.840 --> 00:34:22.000
know what, don't worry about it, you don't need it. You're fun

379
00:34:23.719 --> 00:34:29.800
anyway being a Boston I got a
Boston story. I'll share that much more,

380
00:34:29.880 --> 00:35:19.360
plus your calls next. Hang on
seven six on kc Obey Radio Programs,

381
00:35:19.400 --> 00:35:23.320
retwitted his video. I was watching
for these YouTuber I guess he himself

382
00:35:23.480 --> 00:35:28.639
his army infantry. But he's got
a side hustle on a TikTok channel where

383
00:35:28.679 --> 00:35:37.480
he does the stolen valor call out. UM and uh. He's in a

384
00:35:37.559 --> 00:35:42.920
parking lot and there's this older gentleman
he's wearing. He's wearing what is definitively

385
00:35:43.119 --> 00:35:47.559
unaltered, uh, set of dress
screens from back in the day. UM.

386
00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:54.599
Altered in the sense that he's placed
a peace sign on the shoulder and

387
00:35:55.239 --> 00:36:00.599
he has at least one other patch
there that's you know, clearly not army.

388
00:36:00.679 --> 00:36:05.880
Regg but um, he's got his
name tag on there, and he's

389
00:36:06.159 --> 00:36:09.760
he's got his blue cord and all
that, and he's asking this guy questions

390
00:36:09.800 --> 00:36:15.079
and it's pretty clear this old guy
is giving him partial answers, but doing

391
00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:17.719
so because he clearly doesn't want to
get into it. And I don't I

392
00:36:17.760 --> 00:36:23.199
don't know if you've ever had a
conversation with somebody who spent time serving in

393
00:36:23.599 --> 00:36:29.440
combat, uh, and you start
asking them about it because maybe maybe you

394
00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:32.119
just feel your title to the answer
and they don't want to talk about some

395
00:36:32.280 --> 00:36:38.679
of it. So he comes to
the conclusion that this is so he decides

396
00:36:38.719 --> 00:36:42.760
to take the leap, comes to
the conclusion this guy's line because he's asking

397
00:36:42.840 --> 00:36:49.639
dumb questions like the guy's wearing dress
screen dress screens, but he had do

398
00:36:49.760 --> 00:36:52.800
you did you actually have friends of
yours who died wearing that? And the

399
00:36:52.880 --> 00:36:58.559
guy goes, no, why because
most soldiers aren't killed while they're wearing U

400
00:36:58.920 --> 00:37:01.880
their dress uniform, right, And
he's not processing this and he calls this

401
00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:07.039
old guy out, who obviously that
does not go well, and it ends

402
00:37:07.119 --> 00:37:10.159
with him pulling out his VA cards
shove it in his face, and the

403
00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:15.800
silence is is overwhelming. I'm just
I can't believe the dude posted it on

404
00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:27.519
TikTok uh. I guess part of
his service was Korean War but post fifty

405
00:37:27.639 --> 00:37:30.559
three and he was talking about infiltrators
because he doesn't understand the language around it.

406
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:37.159
And that's that's uncountable. Man.
You ever watch any of those stolen

407
00:37:37.280 --> 00:37:42.320
valor videos that don't get me wrong, there's some real idiots that are out

408
00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:45.599
there. And you know, the
issue of stolen valor is a is a

409
00:37:45.679 --> 00:37:50.639
touchy one. I can't approach it
from a veteran standpoint as I never served,

410
00:37:51.280 --> 00:37:58.000
but um, you can tell when
guys are wearing it and are you

411
00:37:58.079 --> 00:38:00.599
know they're they're you well something,
they're using it to extract free stuff.

412
00:38:00.679 --> 00:38:06.960
And one court case the guy was
attempting to impress women. And there are

413
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:10.400
laws surrounding renumeration and profiting from it. But you know, some of these

414
00:38:10.440 --> 00:38:16.119
guys just weared around because they like
the attention they get. And there's whole

415
00:38:16.199 --> 00:38:21.719
channels. There's there's an old salty
marine guy who's you got a big channel.

416
00:38:21.760 --> 00:38:23.360
His name escapes me on this,
but man, you better be damn

417
00:38:23.480 --> 00:38:30.000
sure before you just call somebody out. I don't care if you're active duty

418
00:38:30.039 --> 00:38:40.599
military, as the TikToker purports to
be. Yeah, shoves it right in

419
00:38:40.639 --> 00:38:43.960
his face. All right, Well, anyway, I retweeted that video.

420
00:38:44.079 --> 00:38:46.239
I don't I just found that fascinating
this morning. All right, let me

421
00:38:46.280 --> 00:38:50.320
grab a quick phone call here.
We got the writers strike dealing with that

422
00:38:50.920 --> 00:38:52.920
late night television shows. They're on
hiatus. You're not going to be able

423
00:38:52.960 --> 00:39:00.639
to get your Stephen Colbert or Jimmy
Kimmel for a little while. The The

424
00:39:00.840 --> 00:39:07.559
Star Wars, Marvel, Uniforms,
Universe, and various other favorite Netflix and

425
00:39:07.679 --> 00:39:12.800
Disney programming. Those writers all on
strike, eleven thousand, five hundred of

426
00:39:12.840 --> 00:39:16.920
them. And we had a caller
call in talk about AI. Maybe why

427
00:39:16.960 --> 00:39:21.480
wouldn't you You want to talk about
something that's gonna chap their behinds. By

428
00:39:21.559 --> 00:39:24.679
the way, if they do some
experiment where they go, all right,

429
00:39:24.719 --> 00:39:29.280
well, we're gonna see if they
can write a script based on and actually

430
00:39:29.440 --> 00:39:32.400
I wonder if you get into some
legal issues there. I was thinking about

431
00:39:32.440 --> 00:39:37.199
this. If you start plugging and
playing stuff where people have some sort of

432
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:44.679
ownership interest and you're using old scripts
to inform new can that work property be

433
00:39:44.920 --> 00:39:47.320
used to formulate ahi scripts and I
don't know the answer to it. You'd

434
00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:52.679
probably have to do a project that's
a standalone, but I wonder what that

435
00:39:52.760 --> 00:39:54.880
would look like. And I wouldn't
put it past one of these streaming services

436
00:39:54.960 --> 00:40:00.000
to do it as some sort of
experiment. And these things can write scripts.

437
00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:06.960
Man, they can write whole movie
scripts in in very short order.

438
00:40:08.159 --> 00:40:14.400
So anyway, Janet, what's going
on? Hey, So I wanted to

439
00:40:14.480 --> 00:40:17.559
call him. I'm super super excited
about the writers strike. You know,

440
00:40:17.639 --> 00:40:23.360
First off, it it means that
you know, no new LEFTSBS content to

441
00:40:23.840 --> 00:40:31.400
put on TV, which is great. Second, I'm really runs content but

442
00:40:31.519 --> 00:40:35.559
okay, he spent well, I
don't watch it anyway, saying I'm just

443
00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:38.880
you know, saying, stop recruiting
for a minute. Anyway. Um,

444
00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:44.039
I'm really hoping it means that Stephen
King will shut up about politics too,

445
00:40:44.280 --> 00:40:47.679
like, oh, he can't technically
even think of words if he's on strikes,

446
00:40:47.800 --> 00:40:52.800
right, Yeah, I'm not.
I'm not sure. I'm assuming he's

447
00:40:53.119 --> 00:40:57.719
a guild member too. I would, I would almost, I would almost

448
00:40:57.760 --> 00:41:02.679
assuredly he's a Writer's Guild member,
if only for residuals and stuff that come

449
00:41:02.800 --> 00:41:06.880
his way. I don't know the
answer to that, So, um,

450
00:41:07.079 --> 00:41:10.639
I think that unfortunately, if anything, some of these guys that are writers,

451
00:41:12.360 --> 00:41:15.320
that are they're gonna have a lot
more free time, and I wonder

452
00:41:15.360 --> 00:41:20.360
if it won't actually be worse.
So all right, we should have awesome

453
00:41:20.360 --> 00:41:22.480
investigate that so that we know what
the rules are here. All right.

454
00:41:22.599 --> 00:41:27.639
Well, well you know he's always
looking for more to do, so we'll

455
00:41:27.880 --> 00:41:31.239
we'll add that to his list.
Okay, all right, yeah, thank

456
00:41:31.280 --> 00:41:36.119
you, Janne. I like it
now. Audience is calling in putting together

457
00:41:36.199 --> 00:41:42.119
honeydoo list for Ross keeping them busy, busy, busy busy. Now is

458
00:41:42.159 --> 00:41:46.119
Stephen King too? How how many
of you are taking great joy and watching

459
00:41:46.239 --> 00:41:53.039
the blue check the forced blue check
meltdown? Right, So all of these

460
00:41:53.400 --> 00:41:58.039
all of these Hollywood folks and news
folks that were like, oh, I

461
00:41:58.119 --> 00:42:00.360
can't take the blue check. It's
gonna be meaning list and it's horrible.

462
00:42:02.079 --> 00:42:06.719
And then so Elon goes and he
says, all right, anyone who's got

463
00:42:06.800 --> 00:42:09.679
more than a million followers, we're
gonna put the blue check back. And

464
00:42:09.880 --> 00:42:15.360
then they start losing their crab.
Who's the guy from MSNBC that's really really

465
00:42:15.519 --> 00:42:20.719
losing his credit? Was Hassan or
whatever met Mehdi Hassan or whatever. He's

466
00:42:20.719 --> 00:42:22.800
gotta show he's got a million followers, which not even understands. I barely

467
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:29.239
know who the dude is. He
is absolutely melting down every day on Twitter,

468
00:42:29.800 --> 00:42:32.679
first over the loss of it and
then when it came back. Every

469
00:42:32.800 --> 00:42:38.599
day he posts multiple times letting people
know that he didn't buy it and it

470
00:42:38.800 --> 00:42:45.679
is unjust and he can't believe how
Elon Musk is forcing this upon him,

471
00:42:45.679 --> 00:42:52.079
and he's just crying about it all
day. It's a it's a fun little

472
00:42:52.159 --> 00:42:58.119
rabbit hole to go through his timeline
and I get maybe, I don't know,

473
00:42:58.280 --> 00:43:00.719
block a bunch of your folks,
so you dropped under a million.

474
00:43:00.880 --> 00:43:05.559
I mean, but or there's this
other thing where you don't have to use

475
00:43:05.639 --> 00:43:07.599
the platform. I don't know if
you know, you could delete your account.

476
00:43:09.360 --> 00:43:13.800
If you delete your account, no
blue check, no problems in your

477
00:43:13.840 --> 00:43:20.880
life. But they got bigger issues
over there, because for the first time

478
00:43:21.039 --> 00:43:24.880
ever in the world of the Internet, something has happened because Elon Musk is

479
00:43:24.920 --> 00:43:38.199
such an irresponsible individual. Millions of
people watched the entire Super Mario Brothers movie

480
00:43:38.239 --> 00:43:44.800
on Twitter after a user uploaded the
video using the Twitter blue check subscription,

481
00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:49.559
which allows those with blue checks to
post up to one hour of long,

482
00:43:49.760 --> 00:43:53.960
high quality video. And so basically
you had a Twitter account, not just

483
00:43:54.159 --> 00:43:59.880
one that posted what was a bootleg
copy of this thing. It was actually

484
00:44:00.039 --> 00:44:01.760
pretty decent quality too. I saw
just a little snippet of it. I

485
00:44:01.840 --> 00:44:13.480
didn't watch it, and it was
out there, and it's funny because there

486
00:44:13.920 --> 00:44:21.280
I'm watching the reaction to this and
for the first time ever, apparently somebody

487
00:44:21.360 --> 00:44:25.639
has taken a bootleg copy of a
movie and uploaded it to the Internet,

488
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:30.679
allowing people to watch it for free. This has never happened before. This

489
00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:37.199
is Pureless's innovation, but of a
horrible variety compliments of Elon Musk obviously what

490
00:44:37.360 --> 00:44:42.679
he intended, and he has created
this new era where people are able to

491
00:44:42.719 --> 00:44:45.159
go online and get access to something
that they should have to go to the

492
00:44:45.159 --> 00:44:53.239
theater and pay for right intellectual property
never ever, ever happened. Ever,

493
00:44:53.599 --> 00:44:57.679
how do I know, because they
never address it anywhere in the story.

494
00:44:58.480 --> 00:45:01.119
Now, some people I saw and
we'll have to do some more research on

495
00:45:01.239 --> 00:45:09.519
there their alleging that not only has
this happened before, but currently exists on

496
00:45:10.280 --> 00:45:14.679
other places. Like YouTube. I
don't know if you know this, they

497
00:45:14.719 --> 00:45:20.199
don't label it right out, but
on YouTube there are full length pirated movies

498
00:45:20.440 --> 00:45:24.119
and on websites all throughout the Internet. And when a popular movie where a

499
00:45:24.199 --> 00:45:30.239
bootleg copy comes into existence, as
apparently it has here, finds its way

500
00:45:30.320 --> 00:45:37.400
out there. It populates all over
the Internet and is easily findable. That's

501
00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:39.559
what some are alleging. But I
have nothing to back it up because the

502
00:45:39.639 --> 00:45:45.000
reporter didn't decide to research any of
that. They just decided that the only

503
00:45:45.039 --> 00:45:52.039
place it exists is on Twitter,
and therefore Elon Musk is obviously this was

504
00:45:52.119 --> 00:45:58.719
obviously his intention with doing this,
allowing people to post longer videos. Oh

505
00:45:58.800 --> 00:46:00.599
yeah, it's absolutely crazy, man, Ross, were you aware of this?

506
00:46:00.880 --> 00:46:04.559
Some people are alleging that prior to
this, you would have been able

507
00:46:04.599 --> 00:46:08.119
to get bootleg music and movies and
other stuff in other forums on the internet.

508
00:46:08.320 --> 00:46:13.599
You know what's funny is this account
that did it. I've watched them

509
00:46:13.719 --> 00:46:16.320
stream several other movies in the past, like that's their thing. They would

510
00:46:16.360 --> 00:46:22.440
just randomly throughout the day they go
effort. They'd he here's rush hour too,

511
00:46:22.559 --> 00:46:24.719
and it would just be all of
rush hour too. They like done

512
00:46:24.800 --> 00:46:28.639
of movies. This is the one
that got him, like Nuke though,

513
00:46:29.400 --> 00:46:32.159
right because it's in theaters now and
it's Nintendo. Yeah he did. What

514
00:46:32.320 --> 00:46:35.760
was the other one, the Puss
in Boots movie, I think is the

515
00:46:35.840 --> 00:46:39.039
one where they He got a bunch
of followers for that because it was fairly

516
00:46:39.119 --> 00:46:42.159
new. But yeah, this is
the one where he ended up on the

517
00:46:42.239 --> 00:46:47.400
radar and Nintendo doesn't play man.
In fact, Nintendo still they have one

518
00:46:47.400 --> 00:46:51.480
of the more famous judgments from back
in the day. It's just it's the

519
00:46:51.559 --> 00:46:54.800
absurdity of them acting like this.
This is what Elon Musk intended, right,

520
00:46:55.320 --> 00:47:01.239
people'd be able to pirate Hollywood and
not allowing people to utilize the format.

521
00:47:02.599 --> 00:47:07.360
Expanding the way that you can use
Twitter is a business decision and with

522
00:47:07.519 --> 00:47:12.320
it comes, you know, perils
and things you're going to have to work

523
00:47:12.400 --> 00:47:15.920
out. And you know, there
are ways to go and police for this

524
00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:20.039
stuff, whether it's flagging and reporting
algorithms, things like that. They don't

525
00:47:20.039 --> 00:47:23.159
always work, but as long as
you're doing your due diligence, this will

526
00:47:23.239 --> 00:47:27.320
exist. In the same way that
I could upload a two hour video two

527
00:47:27.360 --> 00:47:31.199
hour movie to YouTube. Get creative
with the labeling and some of the filtering

528
00:47:31.239 --> 00:47:37.719
and stuff that they do and where
they put splices and it exists. Go

529
00:47:37.840 --> 00:47:39.599
to YouTube right now, you can
watch. You can watch a lot of

530
00:47:39.639 --> 00:47:44.159
movies that were not intended to be
on there if you understand how to search

531
00:47:44.280 --> 00:47:47.800
it, how it escapes the algorithm. I don't know, but expanding what

532
00:47:49.079 --> 00:47:52.480
Twitter can do. A good example
is if you wanted to do I don't

533
00:47:52.519 --> 00:47:58.840
know, let's say you were a
primetime top rated host on Fox News.

534
00:47:58.920 --> 00:48:04.800
All right, just a hypethetical here, and they and you guys parted ways

535
00:48:05.800 --> 00:48:08.719
and you wanted to do your own
thing, but you needed a platform to

536
00:48:09.039 --> 00:48:15.559
host that you also felt wasn't going
to be crawling up your behind with you

537
00:48:15.639 --> 00:48:22.840
know, woke strikes and takedown notices. If you had the ability to put

538
00:48:22.079 --> 00:48:29.400
one hour of high quality video that
was then accessible to the masses anyone with

539
00:48:29.480 --> 00:48:34.880
a Twitter account, that would be
pretty valuable. And the chances are you

540
00:48:34.920 --> 00:48:38.199
would expand the way in which your
platform is utilized. That person would find

541
00:48:38.280 --> 00:48:43.000
value being able to get their stuff
out there, and financially you both could

542
00:48:43.039 --> 00:48:46.599
benefit from this. So acting like
Elon did this so they could screw Hollywood,

543
00:48:46.960 --> 00:48:51.920
and because they just decided to never
talk about any other instance of this

544
00:48:52.679 --> 00:48:58.679
is just another and a long list
of wildly disingenuous news coverage takes. And

545
00:48:58.800 --> 00:49:00.880
we got a story about the faith
that people have in the news media,

546
00:49:01.000 --> 00:49:05.039
and you could tell AP's feelings or
hurt. We'll get to that later on.

547
00:49:07.159 --> 00:49:09.719
But you know, and obviously I'm
referencing like Tucker Carlson. What if

548
00:49:09.760 --> 00:49:14.039
Tucker Carlson decided that YouTube or excuse
me, Twitter was going to be his

549
00:49:14.159 --> 00:49:17.719
platform because he felt that Twitch and
YouTube and some of these other things,

550
00:49:19.519 --> 00:49:22.880
anytime they didn't like a segment he
did, would just take the content down.

551
00:49:22.960 --> 00:49:25.239
Whereas with Twitter, he feels that
he would get a fair shake and

552
00:49:25.519 --> 00:49:30.800
it would be financially viable. That
would expand how people see Twitter, would

553
00:49:30.840 --> 00:49:37.519
it not, Absolutely, it would. If you had a success story there,

554
00:49:37.559 --> 00:49:40.519
then others may follow. And if
others follow, more revenue is derived,

555
00:49:40.960 --> 00:49:45.719
more usage, more minutes spent on
the platform, more eyeballs for advertising,

556
00:49:46.079 --> 00:49:52.559
more fees for those who are monetizing
it greatly. There's all sorts of

557
00:49:52.679 --> 00:49:59.920
win here, so you know the
whole thing. And I mentioned Nintendo.

558
00:50:00.079 --> 00:50:04.519
Nintendo not screwing around. They still
have a dude who back in the day

559
00:50:04.679 --> 00:50:09.360
Nintendo went after to make an example
of who got forty months in prison and

560
00:50:09.800 --> 00:50:15.880
a fifteen million dollar fine even after
he's since been released, and he in

561
00:50:16.039 --> 00:50:22.400
perpetuity Nintendo gets twenty five to thirty
percent of his gross monthly income every month

562
00:50:22.519 --> 00:50:29.719
until the fifteen million is recouped.
Yeah, and the best part is the

563
00:50:30.239 --> 00:50:35.639
dude's last name is Bowser. So
I don't know if that's what spurred Nintendo

564
00:50:35.719 --> 00:50:39.559
to make an example of him when
when they were going through all of this

565
00:50:39.679 --> 00:50:45.599
stuff. But if your last name's
Bowser and you're uploading stuff to a Torrent

566
00:50:45.760 --> 00:50:51.840
frank and you know, getting Nintendo
copyrighted stuff out there, I feel like

567
00:50:51.960 --> 00:50:53.719
Nintendo's like, yep, that's the
perfect guy to make an example of.

568
00:50:53.800 --> 00:50:59.880
And they did, all right eight
eight eight nine three four seven eight seven

569
00:51:00.119 --> 00:51:06.559
four? Uh, Tron, what's
up? And then much um. I

570
00:51:06.679 --> 00:51:09.800
was just telling him about the um
oh hey, Tron Tron. I'm sorry,

571
00:51:09.840 --> 00:51:12.960
do you mind holding nonster. I'm
just looking at my clock. I'm

572
00:51:12.960 --> 00:51:15.480
gonna, I'm gonna. I need
to take a break, but I promise

573
00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:17.599
I'll get right back to you.
Okay, all right, all right,

574
00:51:17.719 --> 00:51:21.320
sorry so sorry, sorry, sorry, all right, We'll take a break.

575
00:51:21.400 --> 00:51:25.119
Hang on one oh six one FM. Talk at ninety four five w

576
00:51:25.480 --> 00:51:30.559
PTI, two stations driving the best
end talk. This is Casey O Day

577
00:51:30.880 --> 00:51:37.920
and Carolina's Morning News. All right, Semetary five, Good morning. Hey,

578
00:51:38.000 --> 00:51:42.159
if you're thinking you know what I'd
love to get away with murdered,

579
00:51:42.199 --> 00:51:45.920
good news. Have I got a
story for you coming up, But first

580
00:51:45.000 --> 00:51:50.039
let's get back to the phones we
were. I had retweeted a video of

581
00:51:50.159 --> 00:51:54.679
this TikToker. Dude, Ah,
he's uh stolen valor guy right, And

582
00:51:54.760 --> 00:51:59.320
don't get me wrong. You see
people walking around, and especially if you

583
00:51:59.519 --> 00:52:04.039
yourself for a service member or veteran, you're gonna have a keener eye for

584
00:52:04.119 --> 00:52:07.199
the stuff, especially when you look
to see. Yeah, you see guys

585
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:12.960
walking around and they got a chest
of medals and ribbons that look like they're

586
00:52:13.000 --> 00:52:16.679
a six star, you know,
Junta general from South America. And you

587
00:52:16.800 --> 00:52:22.000
might have some questions. The problem
is you gotta be very careful. You

588
00:52:22.079 --> 00:52:23.920
know. It's like it's like asking
a woman if she's pregnant. You don't

589
00:52:23.960 --> 00:52:30.559
want to be wrong. And this
one video, he's talking to this guy

590
00:52:30.599 --> 00:52:39.159
who's admittedly his he his dress screens
jacket that he's wearing, UM has some

591
00:52:39.280 --> 00:52:45.239
patches on it that are obviously not
military patches. But you know, the

592
00:52:45.360 --> 00:52:52.119
guys, he's an older guy served
Vietnam era, also served in Korea post

593
00:52:52.199 --> 00:52:55.840
fifty three, I guess, and
he just he blatantly just calls him out.

594
00:52:55.880 --> 00:53:01.320
And the guy shows a VA card
in his face and he's just silent.

595
00:53:01.440 --> 00:53:05.440
Man. So I don't know.
You got to balance this stuff,

596
00:53:05.440 --> 00:53:07.480
all right, Tron, thanks for
holding on to appreciate it all yours sort

597
00:53:07.559 --> 00:53:13.440
take it away, all right.
UM. As far as that with the

598
00:53:14.119 --> 00:53:17.719
guy harassing the military vet, when
it comes to that, I feel like

599
00:53:17.880 --> 00:53:22.840
I compared to something you guys mentioned
a couple of days ago, how the

600
00:53:22.039 --> 00:53:27.679
um, if you confront homeless people
for camping in public, that they can

601
00:53:27.760 --> 00:53:30.559
sue you for a thousand dollars,
it should be the same way with the

602
00:53:30.639 --> 00:53:35.079
veterans because of what they went through
and the fact that they dedicated their life

603
00:53:35.119 --> 00:53:38.880
for this country. And as far
as the Mario thing, it's it's not

604
00:53:38.960 --> 00:53:44.199
the first boothbag movie that's been been
on Twitter. It's so it's so much

605
00:53:44.280 --> 00:53:49.360
more on Twitter. So my friends
says, oh, it's yeah, yeah,

606
00:53:50.000 --> 00:53:52.440
and I've been waiting weeks to ask
you all this question. So we

607
00:53:52.679 --> 00:53:58.480
as the American people, Uh,
do you think there's any way that we'd

608
00:53:58.599 --> 00:54:01.480
ever be able to overthrow a government? Me personally, I feel like they

609
00:54:02.159 --> 00:54:09.360
have bought too much irrelevant topics into
the into this country to keep us separated,

610
00:54:09.440 --> 00:54:13.400
that we'll never be able to see
out the eye. So definitely,

611
00:54:13.519 --> 00:54:16.639
do you mean from like a physical
standpoint or do you mean from a coalescing

612
00:54:16.719 --> 00:54:21.840
as as a one person standpoint?
Right? No, just like as a

613
00:54:21.920 --> 00:54:23.559
country, if we could, do
you think we'd be able to band together

614
00:54:23.679 --> 00:54:30.039
to overthrow the government? I don't
see it happenings. Well, I mean,

615
00:54:30.119 --> 00:54:35.320
I mean we're one and oh yeah. If this is the best we

616
00:54:35.400 --> 00:54:38.239
can do with government officially, what
can we do without them? That's what

617
00:54:38.400 --> 00:54:43.360
I'm thinking. Yeah, well,
look, I sure your frustration there Again,

618
00:54:43.400 --> 00:54:45.239
I would point out where one and
oh, but if you want to

619
00:54:45.280 --> 00:54:51.239
look to more modern stuff, obviously
we have found ourselves stymied in places like

620
00:54:51.400 --> 00:54:57.079
Afghanistan Vietnam, which I just you
know, just mentioned, Um yeah,

621
00:54:57.159 --> 00:55:00.119
I mean they got they got the
nukes to quote their swalwell kind of.

622
00:55:00.360 --> 00:55:05.960
But you know, ultimately, if
you're asking from a coalescing as as a

623
00:55:06.079 --> 00:55:09.519
one people. Yeah, I know
we're incredibly divided, incredibly divided. So

624
00:55:09.599 --> 00:55:13.440
I don't know the answer to that. But you know, if you've got

625
00:55:13.559 --> 00:55:16.440
enough people behind you, could you
do it? Absolutely? But you think,

626
00:55:16.519 --> 00:55:21.679
well, have you got to have
the people that are there pushing the

627
00:55:21.719 --> 00:55:23.760
buttons on behalf of the government,
right, they have to buy any of

628
00:55:23.800 --> 00:55:29.239
what you're wanting to do. Yeah, it was like it seems like almost

629
00:55:29.280 --> 00:55:32.159
it seems like they're the problem.
I don't want to say it's not asted

630
00:55:32.280 --> 00:55:38.760
like I've been an issue before,
but like I hear you, yeah,

631
00:55:38.840 --> 00:55:42.920
I don't know. I'd have to
know all the parameters and stuff. But

632
00:55:43.599 --> 00:55:47.360
all right, yeah, I appreciate
the call this morning. Man, Okay,

633
00:55:47.760 --> 00:55:57.559
yes, I see, all right, all right, later you catch

634
00:55:57.639 --> 00:56:01.760
that last far ross Man says he
still needs his five dollars in quarters.

635
00:56:02.320 --> 00:56:07.400
So, Ross, do you think
we could overthrow the government? Not just

636
00:56:07.559 --> 00:56:13.679
you and I, but you know, like collectively. I mean maybe,

637
00:56:15.119 --> 00:56:19.280
but of course I'm not promoting that, sir. Of course we would never

638
00:56:19.800 --> 00:56:22.800
ever do that. Ross is trying
to overthrow it with his Twitch channel,

639
00:56:22.840 --> 00:56:25.440
Sir. So, I mean it's
a campaign, you know, it's constantly

640
00:56:25.519 --> 00:56:30.199
in motion. It's been going on
for what is it a decade? Now?

641
00:56:34.039 --> 00:56:37.320
What do you mean? You see
chat GPT yesterday figured it out all

642
00:56:37.360 --> 00:56:40.559
right? When as chat GPT my
buddy Harbridger fifty putt in there. He

643
00:56:40.599 --> 00:56:44.679
said, yeah, he said,
what is Hayes for sheriff And it was

644
00:56:44.719 --> 00:56:46.159
like we had not enough information,
but by the name, it sounds like

645
00:56:46.239 --> 00:56:50.960
somebody running for a political office for
sheriff. It's too much and knows too

646
00:56:51.039 --> 00:56:52.440
much. We need to shut it
down. I did think, I did

647
00:56:52.519 --> 00:56:55.079
think it was interesting. In that
response, it also said that it doesn't

648
00:56:55.119 --> 00:56:59.719
have the ability to real time search
the Internet. I'm like, what is

649
00:56:59.840 --> 00:57:04.480
what have them? A two year
old can real time search the internet?

650
00:57:05.199 --> 00:57:08.960
You tell me chat GPT can't google
stuff. I don't feel that it's being

651
00:57:09.039 --> 00:57:15.760
honest. But then when it yes, obviously it's showing signs that it knows,

652
00:57:16.039 --> 00:57:19.800
it knows what you're up to.
And I'd be very nervous if I

653
00:57:19.880 --> 00:57:22.880
were you. That's how you get
the robot Boston Dynamics dogs with the oozis

654
00:57:22.960 --> 00:57:28.519
on him banging on your door.
Then you got to go hide in your

655
00:57:28.559 --> 00:57:32.559
bunker or your your furry dungeon,
or if you're lucky enough like one individual

656
00:57:32.719 --> 00:57:42.760
your sex dungeon. A man reportedly
found a quote sex dungeon underneath his nineteen

657
00:57:42.960 --> 00:57:47.920
hundreds era home following two years of
living on the properties. So he moved

658
00:57:47.920 --> 00:57:53.840
in two years ago and just now
discovered this. He said that he was

659
00:57:54.000 --> 00:57:59.679
encountering some plumbing problems, was down
in the basement of es getting the issue

660
00:58:00.000 --> 00:58:05.079
and started to move some panels at
near a crawl space under there which he

661
00:58:05.159 --> 00:58:08.760
had previously not went into. Was
the first time he had removed the venting

662
00:58:08.880 --> 00:58:17.239
and basically they'd kind of sealed it
off. And he said that the paperwork

663
00:58:17.360 --> 00:58:23.840
home inspection and he act just he
actually has not plans, but he has

664
00:58:23.920 --> 00:58:31.000
a detailed, detailed pictorial of his
home did not did not show any of

665
00:58:31.079 --> 00:58:37.320
this stuff. But there was concern
that the plumbing down in the basement reached

666
00:58:37.360 --> 00:58:40.079
back into this era this area.
So he went in there and lo and

667
00:58:40.159 --> 00:58:47.199
behold in the back of about a
four foot by ten foot storage closet where

668
00:58:47.360 --> 00:58:53.400
you would use to access the backside
of this crawl space. There was a

669
00:58:53.559 --> 00:59:00.719
stairway behind the wall leading down into
a secondary secret basement plea with a solid

670
00:59:00.800 --> 00:59:05.320
permanent floor and he said. As
he went into the secret room, he

671
00:59:05.360 --> 00:59:08.760
came across newspapers dated from the nineteen
eighties, chairs, a bed frame,

672
00:59:10.519 --> 00:59:15.960
a note pad, and then,
uh, just a bunch of really really

673
00:59:16.679 --> 00:59:25.719
filthy, filthy, filthy stuff.
I can't read some of the stuff.

674
00:59:25.840 --> 00:59:31.199
Also, it appeared that somebody had
been staying in there and they had been

675
00:59:31.320 --> 00:59:36.360
feeding them. There was some food
trays and stuff. So, and he

676
00:59:36.480 --> 00:59:42.880
was pointing out that you're able to
um able to seal it off, lock

677
00:59:43.000 --> 00:59:50.559
somebody in there essentially, So he
found a sex dungeon. So what do

678
00:59:50.599 --> 00:59:52.119
you do? I mean, what
do you do with that? Do you

679
00:59:52.480 --> 00:59:54.599
do you update it to you know, match the rest of that. This

680
00:59:54.719 --> 01:00:00.079
isn't the first time we've heard this
happening on this show. I've gone over

681
01:00:00.199 --> 01:00:04.360
before. I've talked about how this
has happened. Right where I was down

682
01:00:04.400 --> 01:00:06.920
in my basement, I was working
on the dry wall. I heard something

683
01:00:07.000 --> 01:00:09.199
behind the wall. Yes to what
the hell is that? Like the bob

684
01:00:09.360 --> 01:00:15.199
vila. Yes, I I punched
through the wall and it was Darude Sandstorm

685
01:00:16.760 --> 01:00:22.360
playing in a giant furry dungeon that
came with the house. Did disco ball

686
01:00:22.639 --> 01:00:25.719
oh wow? Illuminating the room and
there's about twenty thirty furies in there.

687
01:00:25.920 --> 01:00:29.679
How'd they get in there? And
they came with the house, None of

688
01:00:29.719 --> 01:00:32.840
my business. But if I found
books, yeah, I would have kicked

689
01:00:32.920 --> 01:00:37.920
him out discussion, none of that
crap. Well, books of my house,

690
01:00:37.599 --> 01:00:42.079
that's the thing. As as he
started to dig through, there was

691
01:00:42.159 --> 01:00:46.679
also these weird, creepy old books. And the books were documenting all sorts

692
01:00:46.719 --> 01:00:52.920
of let's just say, horrible force
sexual acts and just uh, you know,

693
01:00:52.119 --> 01:00:54.559
just all the stuff that would make
your skin crawl if you were to

694
01:00:54.880 --> 01:01:01.599
stumble upon it. And that's what
this dude found. So he probably should

695
01:01:01.639 --> 01:01:07.000
have just sealed it off and then
you know, like told his wife he

696
01:01:07.079 --> 01:01:12.280
was building a man cave or something. But instead he was like, what

697
01:01:12.440 --> 01:01:16.280
the what the hell is this?
So, um, did you convert your

698
01:01:16.320 --> 01:01:20.320
furry dungeon or do you just put
the thing the drywall back up and let

699
01:01:20.360 --> 01:01:22.480
it be? You know, I
mean they're still there? Oh wow,

700
01:01:22.559 --> 01:01:25.280
okay, I mean this they have
squatters rights at this point. I contacted

701
01:01:25.320 --> 01:01:29.760
this city wake four, so there's
nothing they can do, okay, absolutely,

702
01:01:30.679 --> 01:01:34.719
and they're just they continue to party
on with their the rude. Oh

703
01:01:34.800 --> 01:01:42.199
good for the seven forty five case
of Dave radio program raised Agick from the

704
01:01:42.639 --> 01:01:46.119
channel. Oh man, so some
dude was he had some plumbing issues in

705
01:01:46.199 --> 01:01:50.599
this basement. He'd moved in the
house two years ago. And he goes

706
01:01:50.679 --> 01:01:52.840
in, finds a false panel behind
this closet to access the back of the

707
01:01:52.880 --> 01:01:57.960
crawl space and there's a sex dungeon
back there. Yeah, you need to

708
01:01:57.960 --> 01:02:00.320
be where those false panels. They'll
get you every time. Does that?

709
01:02:00.519 --> 01:02:04.119
Does that make you wonder if there's
like stuff in your high if you have

710
01:02:04.159 --> 01:02:07.199
like an older house, do you
wonder if Mike, maybe there's something there?

711
01:02:07.280 --> 01:02:09.639
You know? I always, um, you know, not for me,

712
01:02:09.880 --> 01:02:13.920
but every time I go home and
I go in my sister ended up

713
01:02:14.039 --> 01:02:21.000
purchasing my grandparents' house and whatever,
I go down into that basement. You

714
01:02:21.079 --> 01:02:22.000
know, there's like this little coal
seller. I don't know if you know

715
01:02:22.039 --> 01:02:24.239
what the cold celler is, but
yeah, I know what that is.

716
01:02:24.760 --> 01:02:28.760
Um, And then it's like,
I don't know, it looks a little

717
01:02:28.840 --> 01:02:30.559
and there's like a little opening where
you look in. You're like, hey,

718
01:02:30.639 --> 01:02:34.159
there's still open space in there,
and I can fit in there.

719
01:02:34.519 --> 01:02:37.679
But then I'm like, Nope,
not a chance, not even gonna venture

720
01:02:37.760 --> 01:02:42.920
down that path, yeah, I
am. But if there's treasure there could

721
01:02:42.960 --> 01:02:46.000
be there. You're willing to live
with the fact that there could be literally

722
01:02:46.119 --> 01:02:50.880
like long life altering amounts of treasure
back there the end. There could be

723
01:02:50.960 --> 01:02:53.599
because there had been some found at
one point or another in the floor boards.

724
01:02:53.679 --> 01:02:59.920
But that's a story government, okay, Yeah, they always know stuff

725
01:03:00.440 --> 01:03:07.360
that had the then, um are
my grandmother's sister's house. They actually called

726
01:03:07.360 --> 01:03:09.239
their basement the dungeon, which kind
of made me a little nervous, but

727
01:03:09.800 --> 01:03:13.960
you know, yeah, I mean
it was perfectly fine. We used to

728
01:03:15.719 --> 01:03:20.079
Yeah, yeah, exactly. Anyway. Anyway, yeah, beautiful good basement

729
01:03:20.159 --> 01:03:22.000
weather or should you yeah great,
yeah, good to get out, I

730
01:03:22.039 --> 01:03:28.559
mean get out. Temperatures will probably
be about ten degrees or so below average.

731
01:03:28.880 --> 01:03:30.840
The average highs this time of year
should be in the mid nupper seventies,

732
01:03:31.239 --> 01:03:37.320
probably only the mid sixties today for
most. Um. Yeah, that's

733
01:03:37.320 --> 01:03:40.800
stiff wind at times, just south
of Greensboro, Winston Salem. Um.

734
01:03:42.400 --> 01:03:45.639
Some wind advisories too, so fairly
windy, but it'll look nice, same

735
01:03:45.679 --> 01:03:47.320
thing tomorrow. It's still gonna be
some stiff winds out of the northwest,

736
01:03:47.800 --> 01:03:52.440
mid nupper sixties again, we'll finally
crack seventy. Thursday and Friday actually gonna

737
01:03:52.440 --> 01:03:54.119
be the best days. There'll be
a light breeze Thursday, how much wind.

738
01:03:54.159 --> 01:03:59.000
Friday's gonna be gorgeous, low seventies, overnight lows coming up into the

739
01:03:59.079 --> 01:04:02.480
forties, the forties nonetheless, and
then maybe some showers Saturday, but Sunday,

740
01:04:02.480 --> 01:04:05.559
Sunday, and we'll start a warming
trend I think, starting Sunday into

741
01:04:05.639 --> 01:04:12.000
early next week at or now maybe
flipping the switch on some above average temperatures

742
01:04:12.079 --> 01:04:15.360
as we get this upper level low
pressure system in the northeastern part of the

743
01:04:15.440 --> 01:04:18.599
US and the Great Lake States pulling
away. Which I don't know if you're

744
01:04:18.719 --> 01:04:23.000
a weather buffer or not, but
Marquette, Michigan had like nineteen inches of

745
01:04:23.039 --> 01:04:28.800
snow yesterday, so they not only
may have my hoary, Yeah, I

746
01:04:28.880 --> 01:04:31.679
mean, you know, it's it's
kind of unusual snowy as May Day a

747
01:04:31.760 --> 01:04:35.119
record, I think, and having
one of their snowiest seasons on record,

748
01:04:35.199 --> 01:04:40.920
as are many up in the upper
Midwest and out in the West where the

749
01:04:40.920 --> 01:04:44.599
snows beginning the middle Now, okay, all right, appreciate it, sir,

750
01:04:44.760 --> 01:04:46.920
Thank you very much. Talking to
an hour. All right, race

751
01:04:46.920 --> 01:04:50.920
staging there from the Weather Channel.
I gotta real quickly, well, and

752
01:04:50.960 --> 01:04:56.920
we'll get into this down in Florida. Some new law and order style bills,

753
01:04:57.039 --> 01:05:00.360
one of them I have some questions
about all. So we'll check in

754
01:05:00.679 --> 01:05:05.000
in Hollywood where they were like,
oh, we don't need police, let's

755
01:05:05.039 --> 01:05:12.639
get quote security ambassadors. We'll see
how that experiment's going. And another balloon.

756
01:05:12.920 --> 01:05:17.000
We had another balloon to distract us
from bank takeovers or whatever you think

757
01:05:17.079 --> 01:05:20.000
the conspiracy is. So all that
and much more coming up. Hang on

758
01:05:20.800 --> 01:05:27.880
your day smarter and celebrating ten years
of keeping you better informed one oh six

759
01:05:27.960 --> 01:05:34.239
one FM Talk and News Talk nine
four five WPTI more with Casey starts now.

760
01:05:43.960 --> 01:05:47.000
All right. The US military said
they were tracking a mysterious balloon that

761
01:05:47.199 --> 01:05:54.039
blew over American soil. This time
whole I E and I guess they came

762
01:05:54.119 --> 01:05:58.559
to the conclusion that it didn't pose
a threat, it wasn't over sensitive places,

763
01:05:58.639 --> 01:06:00.840
so they just let it keep cruise. In the end, it is

764
01:06:01.719 --> 01:06:09.679
from a trajectory standpoint headed towards southern
Mexico. So anyway, I don't know,

765
01:06:09.800 --> 01:06:13.760
man, I think if if it's
if, because it did cross over

766
01:06:15.519 --> 01:06:18.960
US soil. I don't know why
you don't just grease this stuff, you

767
01:06:19.079 --> 01:06:21.840
know, and I get it,
don't you know, wait for it to

768
01:06:21.920 --> 01:06:26.920
get whatever, or I guess they
saw it coming, so the moment it

769
01:06:27.159 --> 01:06:30.039
enters US waters and you could tell
it's on its way to Hawaii, just

770
01:06:30.119 --> 01:06:36.760
shoot the damn thing down. This
is a no brainer. This isn't even

771
01:06:36.840 --> 01:06:41.079
the Oh, we don't know if
it'll land on the one guy in eastern

772
01:06:41.199 --> 01:06:46.960
Montana, Right, blow that thing
out of the sky. I promise there's

773
01:06:47.039 --> 01:06:51.239
some person in the military somewhere is
just itching to shoot something like this down.

774
01:06:53.079 --> 01:07:00.559
Practice man, get Maverick to handle
it. I don't know. Guy's

775
01:07:00.599 --> 01:07:04.960
got a pretty good track record.
They'd actually been tracking it since late last

776
01:07:05.000 --> 01:07:11.039
week, determined to pose no threat
to aerial traffic or national security. And

777
01:07:11.159 --> 01:07:15.599
they said it's not communicating signals.
Well again, if it's gathering stuff that's

778
01:07:15.679 --> 01:07:23.159
later offloaded, serves the same purpose. But I don't know. I did

779
01:07:23.239 --> 01:07:27.000
see one US officials say that they
actually don't believe it belongs to the Chinese.

780
01:07:27.079 --> 01:07:30.000
Okay, well, then tell us
what it is. Is it somebody's

781
01:07:30.039 --> 01:07:34.119
advertising balloon that they forgot to write
The ads on. Is that somebody's screwing

782
01:07:34.239 --> 01:07:44.840
with you? Is it the old
dude from up Is it that weirdo in

783
01:07:44.920 --> 01:07:48.280
Colorado with this guy? We just
want answers. And the reason people want

784
01:07:48.320 --> 01:07:53.239
answers is they don't really trust you
after all that crap and the irony.

785
01:07:53.239 --> 01:07:55.519
And the reason I'm bringing this story
up because it turned out to be a

786
01:07:55.559 --> 01:07:59.719
bit of a nothing burger, is
if you remember when Biden was getting criticized

787
01:07:59.760 --> 01:08:01.480
for this, all of a sudden, they were like, oh, yeah,

788
01:08:01.639 --> 01:08:08.239
this happened under Trump, you know, in this deflection, and when

789
01:08:08.280 --> 01:08:14.880
he looked at the circumstances as to
what happened under Trump, it was Hawaii,

790
01:08:15.400 --> 01:08:17.920
That's what they were talking about.
They were saying that one of these

791
01:08:18.479 --> 01:08:26.800
aerial devices, reconnaissance devices, passed
over US airspace near Hawaii. Okay,

792
01:08:26.880 --> 01:08:29.640
well, if you thought it was
important enough to bring that up so that

793
01:08:29.800 --> 01:08:32.960
you could get a little what about
ism and injected into that other story,

794
01:08:33.079 --> 01:08:41.039
then quit acting like it's nothing here, but hey, that's just me.

795
01:08:42.119 --> 01:08:50.119
So in West Hollywood, California,
West Hollywood, California, a decision was

796
01:08:50.199 --> 01:08:55.760
made to cut funding for the patrols. Specifically in West Hollywood, they have

797
01:08:55.960 --> 01:09:01.800
the Sheriff's department that handles patrols there, which is not all that unusual in

798
01:09:03.159 --> 01:09:09.399
California. Sometimes we're instead of dealing
with Pete, you're dealing with sheriffs and

799
01:09:10.039 --> 01:09:16.279
instead implement security ambassadors. Right,
this is all the defund the police era

800
01:09:16.439 --> 01:09:21.239
crap, and so that's what they
did. They were going to get themselves

801
01:09:21.319 --> 01:09:27.279
some security ambassadors and let them handle
stuff. Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like

802
01:09:27.399 --> 01:09:31.239
it's going well. There's this man
kicking his vehicle and I turned my head

803
01:09:31.319 --> 01:09:38.319
and I saw the block by block
officers were crossing. I was literally flabbergasted

804
01:09:38.600 --> 01:09:43.840
because they walked right past, just
like they were just like nothing. Yeah.

805
01:09:43.960 --> 01:09:45.760
Well, and it's funny that they
refer to him as officers when they're

806
01:09:46.000 --> 01:09:50.479
ambassadors. So what has happened?
We'll fill you in on that, But

807
01:09:54.439 --> 01:09:58.640
I believe it or not, the
residents of West Hollywood are feeling much less

808
01:09:58.680 --> 01:10:03.479
safe. So that great social experiment. Why it's a good time to get

809
01:10:03.479 --> 01:10:08.119
away with murder and uh, speaking
of laws, what they're doing down in

810
01:10:08.199 --> 01:10:54.720
Florida. We'll jam pack it all
in next hang on, all right,

811
01:10:54.760 --> 01:10:57.960
good morning, everybody, as eight
to seven here on the CASEO Game,

812
01:10:58.279 --> 01:11:01.520
radio program our number three on your
Tuesday here, glad to have you one

813
01:11:01.680 --> 01:11:11.439
long phone number eight eight eight nine
three four seven eight seventy four. Oh

814
01:11:11.520 --> 01:11:16.920
this is nice. What is wrong
with people? Sorry? Sorry, I've

815
01:11:16.920 --> 01:11:20.439
got to stay away from Twitter while
I'm literally on the air because I start

816
01:11:20.520 --> 01:11:25.279
falling down these rabbit holes. Man. All right, well we'll get to

817
01:11:25.359 --> 01:11:29.880
that here in a little bit.
I was just letting you know that it's

818
01:11:29.920 --> 01:11:34.159
not working out so well. And
yet another one of these communities that decided,

819
01:11:34.319 --> 01:11:38.760
well, we don't really need police
or in this case, sheriff's The

820
01:11:38.840 --> 01:11:44.880
Sheriff's department handled the patrols, you
know, actively showing presence and when they

821
01:11:44.960 --> 01:11:48.920
see a crime being committed or suspected
crime, actually going over and seeing what's

822
01:11:49.000 --> 01:11:55.640
up. I don't need all of
that. We need security ambassadors. Ambassadors

823
01:11:56.760 --> 01:12:03.840
they'll walk around and ambassador or you
know, whatever they do. And that's

824
01:12:03.880 --> 01:12:09.479
what West Hollywood decided they were gonna
do. The problem, of course,

825
01:12:09.720 --> 01:12:17.039
is residents say that there has been
an onslaught of crimes. Now, ironically,

826
01:12:17.199 --> 01:12:23.760
the security Ambassador program is not something
that is or a downtown Ambassador program

827
01:12:23.880 --> 01:12:28.720
or something named similar is not a
new thing. For years Raleigh had this.

828
01:12:28.920 --> 01:12:30.840
I think they still do. I
haven't seen one in a while,

829
01:12:30.960 --> 01:12:40.239
but but they really weren't there to
supplant law enforcement. Right, sometimes you

830
01:12:40.319 --> 01:12:45.159
need law enforcement. Case in point, you've got the block by block security

831
01:12:45.159 --> 01:12:49.399
ambassadors. If they see somebody I
don't know standing outside of a vehicle banging

832
01:12:49.399 --> 01:12:53.960
away on the vehicle, screaming,
threatening to kill the person inside, and

833
01:12:54.119 --> 01:12:59.159
kicking it violently, I would argue
that a person who is more akin to

834
01:12:59.279 --> 01:13:04.239
handing out apps and given directions to
places where recommendations for restaurants is probably not

835
01:13:04.439 --> 01:13:11.560
the right person to inject themselves into
that situation. And they would agree because

836
01:13:12.960 --> 01:13:16.119
they won't inject themselves into that situation. No, no, no. And

837
01:13:16.319 --> 01:13:21.600
one of the examples was a video
that was posted the other day of exactly

838
01:13:21.720 --> 01:13:27.239
that happening. There was this man
kicking in his vehicle and I turned my

839
01:13:27.359 --> 01:13:31.600
head and I saw the block by
block officers were crossing. I was literally

840
01:13:31.760 --> 01:13:38.039
flabbergasted because they walked right past,
just like they were just like nothing.

841
01:13:38.800 --> 01:13:41.640
All right, Well, don't be
flabbergasted, sir. This is what you

842
01:13:41.800 --> 01:13:45.720
voted for. Right West Hollywood,
as you can imagine, is a very

843
01:13:45.880 --> 01:13:55.279
very very very liberal place. And
in fact, what was if I remember,

844
01:13:55.720 --> 01:13:59.760
wasn't one of the lawmakers there that
dude that kept having gay escorts od

845
01:14:00.039 --> 01:14:05.720
on Methodist house? Do you remember
that? It happened multiple times before.

846
01:14:05.760 --> 01:14:09.560
They're like, you know what,
maybe this is maybe we should do something.

847
01:14:09.840 --> 01:14:13.479
So but anyway, the politicians you
still have, they're all in on

848
01:14:13.560 --> 01:14:17.600
this. So they decided to expand
the program and literally slash the sheriff's patrols

849
01:14:18.399 --> 01:14:21.319
because you know, that was the
woke thing to do. And as a

850
01:14:21.439 --> 01:14:29.800
result, property crime, person on
person violence, and various other incidents have

851
01:14:30.039 --> 01:14:33.920
skyrocketed, not in the sense that
they've even got them down as though there

852
01:14:34.399 --> 01:14:41.199
they were able to intervene. Instead, they're taking that data from observational data

853
01:14:41.640 --> 01:14:47.359
because and the ambassadors will not put
themselves into that situation, and instead they

854
01:14:47.439 --> 01:14:53.720
are they are told. According to
this article from This is the CBS affiliate

855
01:14:53.760 --> 01:15:00.119
in La k CBS affiliate in LA, along with another report by ka b

856
01:15:00.279 --> 01:15:04.479
CTV in LA, security ambassadors are
empowered with the power of a phone.

857
01:15:05.560 --> 01:15:10.800
Yes, that's right. The block
by block ambassadors are not allowed to mitigate

858
01:15:10.920 --> 01:15:15.640
situations where they feel that a crime
may be occurring, which is an often

859
01:15:15.720 --> 01:15:20.800
occurrence in West Hollywood. And look, West Hollywood isn't the murder capital of

860
01:15:20.960 --> 01:15:27.439
LA or anything, but the Hollywood
area does have from time to time some

861
01:15:27.560 --> 01:15:30.640
big crimes. There was a pretty
big one if you remember, in North

862
01:15:30.720 --> 01:15:33.479
Hollywood that kind of was famous,
where some dudes rolled up to rob a

863
01:15:33.560 --> 01:15:39.039
bank outfitted in body armor, and
one of the craziest shootouts you've ever seen

864
01:15:40.039 --> 01:15:44.880
that Michael Bay couldn't dream up actually
took place. But if you have some

865
01:15:45.000 --> 01:15:48.239
guy that's harassing another dude in a
car and is obviously kicking the crap out

866
01:15:48.279 --> 01:15:55.600
of the car in any other place
where you had actual empowered officers, they

867
01:15:55.680 --> 01:15:59.720
would they would or should at the
very least go intervene in that. But

868
01:16:00.000 --> 01:16:03.159
I didn't. So I find it
funny that there is this totality of reports

869
01:16:03.199 --> 01:16:09.560
of all of these citizens of West
Hollywood that are they're just they can't understand

870
01:16:09.600 --> 01:16:12.640
it, they're just how does this
happen? And the way that it happens

871
01:16:12.800 --> 01:16:18.760
is this is what you voted for, This is what you were comfortable with.

872
01:16:18.960 --> 01:16:24.680
Politicians who were wanting to appear woke
and grandstand to go out and set

873
01:16:24.800 --> 01:16:32.560
up you wanted to reimagine police and
reimagine police was a major major campaign issue

874
01:16:32.680 --> 01:16:40.880
for the current crop of elected officials
in West Hollywood. However, residents say

875
01:16:41.039 --> 01:16:44.560
this is not what they expected they
were going to get with the reimagining.

876
01:16:44.640 --> 01:16:48.600
The problem, of course, is
many of these communities they can't. So

877
01:16:48.680 --> 01:16:51.640
the way it works is this with
the sheriff's department. Obviously, the sheriff's

878
01:16:51.640 --> 01:16:58.920
department is a is a countywide thing, so if you're in San Bernardino County

879
01:16:59.079 --> 01:17:05.159
or you're in Orange County or whatever
it is some municipalities, because they have

880
01:17:05.239 --> 01:17:11.359
all these little towns and separate governmental
entities, rather than employ their own police

881
01:17:11.439 --> 01:17:15.399
force, they'll contract with the sheriff's
department. So I always thought this was

882
01:17:15.520 --> 01:17:18.760
odd when I was down in California
because I grew up where you had your

883
01:17:18.800 --> 01:17:23.960
police department in town and the sheriff's
department handled all the county stuff. And

884
01:17:24.159 --> 01:17:28.600
that's pretty normal for most of us. However, in California, depending on

885
01:17:28.720 --> 01:17:31.560
which town you're in, it may
be sheriff's deputies that handle the day to

886
01:17:31.680 --> 01:17:36.479
day stuff. Because they don't have
their own force, they simply contract.

887
01:17:36.600 --> 01:17:43.000
So now by basically kicking them out
from a patrol standpoint. When the security

888
01:17:43.039 --> 01:17:46.640
ambassadors do see something happening that they
feel law enforcement needs to intervene in,

889
01:17:47.199 --> 01:17:50.399
they have to get on the phone, they have to call the sheriff's department,

890
01:17:50.439 --> 01:17:56.279
at which point they will then dispatch
deputies. And there's a certain limitation

891
01:17:56.359 --> 01:17:59.800
to how many times they can do
that because there is a strict budget for

892
01:18:00.840 --> 01:18:08.600
This is what the reimagining of police
in its purest form looks like. Yes,

893
01:18:08.880 --> 01:18:11.560
so if you go and you read
their websites, you realize that,

894
01:18:11.760 --> 01:18:15.680
yes, only in emergency situations will
the Sheriff's department be called, at which

895
01:18:15.720 --> 01:18:19.279
point deputies will be dispatched. So
yeah, it's not working out so hot,

896
01:18:19.960 --> 01:18:25.239
not working out so hot at all. And it's just one example.

897
01:18:25.359 --> 01:18:29.960
Meanwhile, NPR runs this story,
more people are getting away with murder.

898
01:18:30.159 --> 01:18:35.319
Unsolved killings reach a record high.
I want you to think about this for

899
01:18:35.399 --> 01:18:42.920
a moment. More murders across America
are going unsolved than at any time in

900
01:18:43.239 --> 01:18:50.079
modern history. Wouldn't you think with
all of the technology that we have,

901
01:18:53.319 --> 01:18:59.319
with the willingness and the stupidity of
criminals too in many cases basically create the

902
01:18:59.520 --> 01:19:03.479
evidence. It's in a social media
environment in some cases or through Google search

903
01:19:03.600 --> 01:19:12.199
results. Wouldn't you think it would
be easier than ever to solve a murder?

904
01:19:13.800 --> 01:19:20.199
It's hard to get away forensically with
murder now, I mean think about

905
01:19:20.359 --> 01:19:26.399
all of the different and I'm not
just the CSI crap you see on TV.

906
01:19:27.920 --> 01:19:30.000
But if I asked you, Ross, if I asked you, do

907
01:19:30.079 --> 01:19:32.000
you think it would be easier to
get away with murder when your dad was

908
01:19:32.079 --> 01:19:36.159
a kid or when or or now? Right? Oh, dude, because

909
01:19:36.199 --> 01:19:40.319
you know we love watching those true
crime shows and like, uh yeah,

910
01:19:40.680 --> 01:19:43.479
they're all over Netflix, right,
like the Ted Bundy stuff and it's kind

911
01:19:43.520 --> 01:19:47.439
of short and Markie and I are
we saying to each other it like you

912
01:19:47.439 --> 01:19:49.720
wouldn't be able to do that today. I don't think to the extent that

913
01:19:49.800 --> 01:19:54.840
Ted Bundy did, right, Like
it's you hate to think about. It's

914
01:19:54.920 --> 01:19:57.800
morbid. But it was so much
easier then, right, Yeah, there's

915
01:19:57.840 --> 01:20:01.560
a there's a there's a vastly in
probability that your image would be captured.

916
01:20:01.640 --> 01:20:05.600
I mean you're talking about back then. The different departments didn't even communicate across

917
01:20:05.640 --> 01:20:10.319
state lines, so you just go
from one state to the next to the

918
01:20:10.399 --> 01:20:13.079
next, and there was no way
they would even know. But you know,

919
01:20:13.199 --> 01:20:17.680
think about the processing through modern days, CCTV cell phones with cameras in

920
01:20:17.760 --> 01:20:21.119
them. Yeah, you know,
if you had, if you had what

921
01:20:21.359 --> 01:20:24.920
was the one killing where he took
the woman to the reservoir or whatever?

922
01:20:25.520 --> 01:20:30.199
I would assume if you go to
a reservoir. Now, well, if

923
01:20:30.239 --> 01:20:32.520
you go over, if you go
to Jordan Lake or High Rock or any

924
01:20:32.560 --> 01:20:36.359
of the rest that whenever you're going
in and around, why don't you look

925
01:20:36.399 --> 01:20:40.159
up see if there's cameras on the
post I'm gonna give you. I'm gonna

926
01:20:40.159 --> 01:20:43.600
get I don't know fully on all
of them, but I know if you

927
01:20:43.720 --> 01:20:46.720
go to the any of the marina
areas and some of the boat launches,

928
01:20:46.760 --> 01:20:49.680
they have cameras over there. Yeah. No, he had a cabin like

929
01:20:49.880 --> 01:20:53.560
right by the lake there during like
a like a big holiday, I can't

930
01:20:53.560 --> 01:20:56.640
remember. It was like fourth of
July or Memorial Labor Day. And so

931
01:20:56.920 --> 01:21:00.640
there's the lake and then up the
hill is his cat been where he would

932
01:21:00.680 --> 01:21:03.199
keep these and like it's impossible now, at least he would hope to think

933
01:21:03.239 --> 01:21:08.039
so. Well, apparently not.
So you have to ask yourself, well,

934
01:21:08.039 --> 01:21:13.359
with all of the forensic advances that
we have the amount of surveillance society,

935
01:21:13.479 --> 01:21:15.600
you know, the surveillance society that
we live in. How in the

936
01:21:15.720 --> 01:21:18.600
world is it easier to get away
with murder? And so you have to

937
01:21:18.680 --> 01:21:24.920
start You got to start checking the
boxes. And it's it speaks to culture

938
01:21:25.840 --> 01:21:31.640
right where yeah, don't snitch,
right, don't don't say anything, and

939
01:21:32.000 --> 01:21:35.000
uh, you know, don't it's
none of my business. All right,

940
01:21:35.039 --> 01:21:39.479
Well that's one part of it too. You have to have the ability to

941
01:21:39.640 --> 01:21:45.039
utilize those resources. So you know, if we get into these discussions about

942
01:21:45.560 --> 01:21:50.439
use of the SBI here in North
Carolina or any of the forensic stuff,

943
01:21:50.960 --> 01:21:55.000
you still have to budget for law
enforceont to be able to do that.

944
01:21:55.159 --> 01:22:00.920
You have to staff accordingly. You
have to staff to the to allow people

945
01:22:00.039 --> 01:22:09.159
to have the time that is necessary
to put in the legwork and the process

946
01:22:09.319 --> 01:22:13.159
to solve a murder. Some murders
are easy because you know, some idiot

947
01:22:13.239 --> 01:22:18.319
brags about it on Facebook. Others
require a lot more intricate investigation detail and

948
01:22:18.479 --> 01:22:25.800
scientific endeavor. But you have all
of this stuff available. So the only

949
01:22:25.920 --> 01:22:30.319
way that this is possible and correct
me if I'm wrong eight eight, eight

950
01:22:30.560 --> 01:22:33.680
nine, three four seven eight seventy
four. The only way this is possible

951
01:22:34.039 --> 01:22:40.920
is if we are actively rejecting all
of these tools that we have available to

952
01:22:41.119 --> 01:22:46.359
us. And it's funny because NPR
does this whole thing, you know,

953
01:22:46.439 --> 01:22:50.399
and they're they're talking to these families. They're interviewing this one family in East

954
01:22:50.439 --> 01:22:56.880
Oakland where let's see, this was
in front of a Filipino fast food restaurant

955
01:22:56.920 --> 01:23:00.960
where one of their family members was
gunned down and there's been a bunch of

956
01:23:00.000 --> 01:23:02.560
other murders and they can't figure out
whether they can't solve any of it.

957
01:23:02.840 --> 01:23:08.880
And they're talking about how, you
know, they talk to the police.

958
01:23:08.960 --> 01:23:13.880
Police aren't really doing anything. Well, yeah, because one you have this

959
01:23:14.079 --> 01:23:20.159
part of town where getting people talking
to the police is good luck. Good

960
01:23:20.239 --> 01:23:29.600
luck with that. And also you
have a police force that has been demonized

961
01:23:29.680 --> 01:23:32.800
and is not funded to the level
that it was. Look, do you

962
01:23:33.279 --> 01:23:39.960
homicide detectives want to solve homicides?
Right? But yeah, I know that

963
01:23:40.039 --> 01:23:43.640
we've we've had a lot of discussions
been all over the board about law enforce

964
01:23:43.760 --> 01:23:46.479
been you know with like that body
Camp footage where we talked about head of

965
01:23:46.560 --> 01:23:50.399
some of the reopen and see things. But this isn't about whether an officer

966
01:23:50.560 --> 01:23:58.000
on the street sees some people fighting
and decides whether he's going to inject himself

967
01:23:58.159 --> 01:24:01.600
or not because there might be a
racial component and he scared what activist politicians

968
01:24:01.680 --> 01:24:06.079
will think. Right, this isn't
This isn't that. These are people who

969
01:24:06.119 --> 01:24:12.239
are tasked with solving murders and people
who are in the business. The detectives

970
01:24:12.319 --> 01:24:15.279
want to detect stuff, right,
They want to solve murders, they want

971
01:24:15.319 --> 01:24:21.479
to catch bad guys. We throw
out the intricacies of it. So why

972
01:24:21.600 --> 01:24:27.119
you don't empower them to do that, considering the technologies to a place where

973
01:24:27.159 --> 01:24:30.800
it should it should be, should
be easier than ever before to do this

974
01:24:31.560 --> 01:24:35.439
is mind boggling. And for whatever
reason, MPR didn't. They didn't decide

975
01:24:35.439 --> 01:24:41.159
to investigate that aspect of it.
No, they made it sound like police

976
01:24:41.159 --> 01:24:43.880
don't give a crap, and to
some extent, maybe they don't in some

977
01:24:44.079 --> 01:24:47.600
circumstances, like if you have a
bunch of gangbangers that shoots, you know,

978
01:24:48.119 --> 01:24:51.000
one guy goes, shoots three and
then they retaliate and shoot two of

979
01:24:51.079 --> 01:24:56.880
them, and it's not bystanders getting
killed. I understand why that doesn't draw

980
01:24:56.960 --> 01:25:00.600
as much attention versus somebody who gets
murder in a home invasion or something.

981
01:25:01.960 --> 01:25:05.479
We're human, we make judgment calls
on stuff. But people in charge of

982
01:25:05.600 --> 01:25:10.840
solving murders want to solve murders.
People in charge of running down bad guys

983
01:25:10.920 --> 01:25:14.319
and fugitives, they want to catch
them. There's a certain bad assery to

984
01:25:14.479 --> 01:25:18.520
it. I mean, that's just
that's another element to this. Right.

985
01:25:18.560 --> 01:25:21.600
They want to they want to do
their job. So you wrote this whole

986
01:25:21.680 --> 01:25:25.159
thing wondering why it's so easy to
get away with murder, and then you

987
01:25:25.279 --> 01:25:28.920
never answer your own question. Don't
understand what's wrong with people? All right,

988
01:25:29.079 --> 01:25:33.640
Sue real quick? What's up?
Yes, I agree with you about

989
01:25:33.680 --> 01:25:38.840
all these balloons and stuff, you
know, the latest one coming into Hawaii.

990
01:25:39.560 --> 01:25:43.920
Yeah, but I had a question. Some people say these could be

991
01:25:44.079 --> 01:25:47.640
UFOs. If they are, should
we be shooting at them? Well,

992
01:25:47.760 --> 01:25:50.479
one, it is a UFO.
They don't know what it is. It's

993
01:25:50.520 --> 01:25:56.800
an unidentified flying object. So you
know there's that, But I don't know.

994
01:25:57.119 --> 01:25:59.840
Do we want to start an intergalactic
war? Is that's your question?

995
01:26:00.199 --> 01:26:06.439
Yeah? N right, you know
what I'm saying, Get off the lawn

996
01:26:06.479 --> 01:26:12.520
aliens, Yeah exactly, Yeah,
or maybe they just want maybe they just

997
01:26:12.600 --> 01:26:15.239
want to Maybe they were just checking
out women in bikinis. I don't know

998
01:26:15.319 --> 01:26:19.760
what the aliens are up to,
so huh yeah, figuring out who they're

999
01:26:19.800 --> 01:26:23.279
gonna probe next. So all right, Sue, thanks for the call,

1000
01:26:23.359 --> 01:26:27.119
appreciate it, thank you. Yeah. Now you have to assert your dominance

1001
01:26:27.199 --> 01:26:29.600
whatever you have at to throw out. If you have like tomatoes that let

1002
01:26:29.720 --> 01:26:31.319
us, like Vaude Village, just
throw it at boo alien go away.

1003
01:26:31.560 --> 01:26:33.680
You gotta let them know. You
can't let him like walk all over you

1004
01:26:33.760 --> 01:26:39.960
or flower or vaporize you. I
just had this image of like three grays

1005
01:26:40.039 --> 01:26:43.359
flying over and they're like looking staring
down at women's sun bath. They're like,

1006
01:26:43.399 --> 01:26:45.920
oh, I want to probe that
one, right, and all of

1007
01:26:45.960 --> 01:26:48.279
a sudden she's gonna tractor beam.
I know what the hell is going on?

1008
01:26:48.920 --> 01:26:53.880
I don't know. You know,
Frankly too, we never got a

1009
01:26:53.920 --> 01:26:57.239
straight answer on what that one balloon
that other balloon was up over what was

1010
01:26:57.279 --> 01:27:01.239
it? Lake Mission, one of
the Great Lakes, right, Remember they

1011
01:27:01.279 --> 01:27:04.600
were saying it might be a what
did they say it was some sort of

1012
01:27:04.720 --> 01:27:10.279
capitalistic endeavor. I don't know.
So I don't know the answer to any

1013
01:27:10.359 --> 01:27:15.680
of it. I just know that
ultimately to Ross's point, whether it's searching

1014
01:27:15.760 --> 01:27:19.199
your dominance is is blowing one of
these things out of the sky to make

1015
01:27:19.279 --> 01:27:23.119
a point that you're not going to
fly over and gather down on us,

1016
01:27:23.359 --> 01:27:29.640
or it's simply outing whoever it is
so that everyone knows what's up. Do

1017
01:27:29.960 --> 01:27:33.760
something this wishy washy. We don't
know, but we don't think anything bad

1018
01:27:33.880 --> 01:27:38.079
happened. People don't trust you after
you let that one cruise over all the

1019
01:27:38.159 --> 01:27:42.119
military bases. Give me a break
on this crap, all right? Eight

1020
01:27:42.199 --> 01:27:45.560
eight eight nine three four seven eight
seven four back in just a few innovatible

1021
01:27:58.239 --> 01:28:06.159
m okay, all right, good
morning, eight thirty five. You're on

1022
01:28:06.239 --> 01:28:12.000
the case O Day radio program.
This is the one of the weirdest articles.

1023
01:28:12.720 --> 01:28:15.239
Sorry, this is the thing that
got me down the rabbit hole earlier.

1024
01:28:15.359 --> 01:28:20.399
So, um, now, where
exactly was this? Do do?

1025
01:28:20.479 --> 01:28:31.720
Do? Do? Do? All
right? Jacksonville, Florida? All right,

1026
01:28:31.760 --> 01:28:34.239
So if you're in Jacksonville, Florida, and you took an Uber and

1027
01:28:34.279 --> 01:28:43.840
you accidentally left something in there,
a whole lot of somethings Uber has it

1028
01:28:45.359 --> 01:28:49.359
all right? So tell me if
this is yours a back this was left

1029
01:28:49.439 --> 01:28:58.720
in a back seat, a a
stuffed pet toy poodle, six cheesecakes,

1030
01:28:58.800 --> 01:29:06.000
a Danny de Vito Christmas ornament,
a lightsaber, weed, and a Gucci

1031
01:29:06.199 --> 01:29:12.520
loafer, dentures, and a pregnancy
test. Oh, in a painted rat

1032
01:29:13.000 --> 01:29:15.720
rat track. What the hell is
that is? That? Dude? Was

1033
01:29:15.880 --> 01:29:21.159
carrot top in there? Have you
ever seen the others? Chicken wings?

1034
01:29:21.359 --> 01:29:25.159
They had? There was chicken wings. It was about to say. If

1035
01:29:25.239 --> 01:29:30.359
there was chicken wings with the Danny
DeVito Christmas ornament and the cheesecakes, those

1036
01:29:30.399 --> 01:29:33.960
are mine? Oh, those are
mine? So now so they did also

1037
01:29:34.039 --> 01:29:38.039
find the wings. Hold on,
hold on, three, hold on.

1038
01:29:38.039 --> 01:29:40.399
I was picking through the article.
Here's the actual list. You ready,

1039
01:29:40.399 --> 01:29:47.720
I'm gonna read you the entire list
of what's in there. You tell me

1040
01:29:47.840 --> 01:29:55.159
what's yours? A Danny DeVito Christmas
ornament? Yes, fire sword? Deep,

1041
01:29:56.079 --> 01:30:00.760
really it's your fire sword? Remote
controlled vibrator Nope, nope. Chicken

1042
01:30:00.840 --> 01:30:06.199
wings yes, six mini cheesecakes.
Actually there was eight, so I'm gonna

1043
01:30:06.239 --> 01:30:12.279
need two others. But yes,
painted rat trap. I don't believe.

1044
01:30:12.319 --> 01:30:16.680
So what is listed and described as
quote an important pregnancy test. I'm assuming

1045
01:30:16.760 --> 01:30:20.279
that's a positive test. I mean
They're all important, right, Well,

1046
01:30:20.439 --> 01:30:27.520
yeah, Densher's a lightsaber? Is
it a working functional lightsaber? Earlier time?

1047
01:30:27.520 --> 01:30:30.960
I think it's a toy. I'll
pass weed. Nope, and one

1048
01:30:31.079 --> 01:30:38.520
Gucci loafur wait, one Gucci loafer, a package of fake fingernails. I

1049
01:30:38.600 --> 01:30:45.239
only wear crocs and that's horrible.
And a miniature slushy machine. Yes,

1050
01:30:45.520 --> 01:30:51.279
so I would I would like those
to be returned claimed. Really when you

1051
01:30:51.319 --> 01:30:56.159
were in Jacksonville, Florida where he
claimed? Where were you in Jacksonville?

1052
01:30:56.279 --> 01:30:59.399
Very recently? Have you seen the
Danny DeVito trend going around? I saw

1053
01:30:59.479 --> 01:31:03.920
this on Twitter and Facebook this past
Christmas season where there are people that put

1054
01:31:04.079 --> 01:31:10.800
up instead of a Christmas tree,
they put up a cardboard cutout of Danny

1055
01:31:10.880 --> 01:31:15.960
DeVito and they put ornaments and garland
on it. Well, I see you

1056
01:31:16.279 --> 01:31:19.439
don't have a lot of space.
That would be a great choice because it's

1057
01:31:19.479 --> 01:31:24.039
not very big. And Danny DeVito
saw this on social media and reached out.

1058
01:31:24.039 --> 01:31:26.239
I was like, this is amazing. I love it. Of course

1059
01:31:26.279 --> 01:31:30.039
you did. Of course. Look
if people were putting up Ross Hayes cardboard

1060
01:31:30.079 --> 01:31:34.159
cutouts for Christmas, I think you
you would be pretty enthusiastic about it,

1061
01:31:34.199 --> 01:31:36.760
wouldn't you. I'm not one for
self promotion, but I might find its

1062
01:31:36.800 --> 01:31:44.720
way into my social media somehow.
Someway. He actually accidentally whip the retweet

1063
01:31:44.760 --> 01:31:48.439
button. Right, things happened,
so so uh so you left. So

1064
01:31:48.560 --> 01:31:55.239
you were in Jacksonville, Florida,
and you left your fire sword, Danny

1065
01:31:55.319 --> 01:32:00.600
DeVito, Christmas ornament, chicken wings, cheesecakes, and miniature slushy machine.

1066
01:32:01.399 --> 01:32:05.399
That is correct. You know what
you probably considering how much crap you have

1067
01:32:05.439 --> 01:32:09.239
in your studio, I suspect that
you might have all that stuff in there.

1068
01:32:09.319 --> 01:32:13.439
So well, not anymore because apparently
I just looked over earlier, said

1069
01:32:13.439 --> 01:32:15.840
where's my slush puppy machine? He
said, ah, it's not here,

1070
01:32:15.000 --> 01:32:19.520
thief, And that's my fault.
I left it in the uber or whatever.

1071
01:32:19.920 --> 01:32:24.359
Oh wow, okay, and where
was the uber again? Do you

1072
01:32:24.399 --> 01:32:27.399
remember? Said Jacksonville, Florida.
Oh wow, Well he knows, so

1073
01:32:27.800 --> 01:32:34.960
it must be his. Oh everything, he's crazy man. All right,

1074
01:32:35.079 --> 01:32:38.079
check this out. You're a little
more audio I gotta get for you.

1075
01:32:39.840 --> 01:32:44.560
So Media Matters for America has decided
that they're really excited about Tucker Carlson.

1076
01:32:44.600 --> 01:32:47.319
You saw that Joe Biden during the
Nerd prom the other night it was mocking

1077
01:32:47.600 --> 01:32:53.960
Tucker Carlson too, so so now
they've got a one two punch. So

1078
01:32:54.039 --> 01:32:58.840
if you don't know, the side
streaming platform for Fox News is known as

1079
01:32:58.920 --> 01:33:01.000
Fox Nation. And I know that
some of you subscribe to it because you've

1080
01:33:01.039 --> 01:33:04.760
sent me links to it and then
that stuff I can access, so um

1081
01:33:04.880 --> 01:33:09.880
because I don't subscribe to it.
That being said, some people do and

1082
01:33:10.239 --> 01:33:16.680
I have actually heard people bring up
frustrations about using it. So somebody leaked

1083
01:33:17.119 --> 01:33:19.920
some off. This is not when
he's on the air. This is a

1084
01:33:20.119 --> 01:33:24.600
video that was taken to Carlson when
he seated. He seated, but he's

1085
01:33:24.640 --> 01:33:29.199
on a phone call with I don't
know, producers or something, and somebody

1086
01:33:29.319 --> 01:33:30.920
filmed it and then leaked it out
because you know, you got you gotta

1087
01:33:30.960 --> 01:33:36.720
get Tucker Carlson. And this is
the big gotcha moment apparently for Tucker Carlson.

1088
01:33:40.039 --> 01:33:43.119
Hold on the button bar, Okay, here we go. Yeah,

1089
01:33:44.800 --> 01:33:46.760
he's on This is airing on the
nighttime show. And I wanted to look

1090
01:33:46.800 --> 01:33:49.680
official. I don't want it to
be like bro talk and I and I

1091
01:33:51.079 --> 01:33:55.119
you know what I mean, give
it a majority of it, like if

1092
01:33:55.159 --> 01:33:58.760
we go like forty five minutes.
It's Gonnation, but nobody's gonna watch it

1093
01:33:58.840 --> 01:34:01.720
on Fox Nation. Nobody watch this
Fox Nation because the site sucks. So

1094
01:34:01.920 --> 01:34:05.119
I'd really like to just put the
dump the whole thing on YouTube. All

1095
01:34:05.199 --> 01:34:09.399
right, So what is happening here, just so we're clear, and let

1096
01:34:09.479 --> 01:34:12.920
me tell you this is This is
something within the industry, and it's not

1097
01:34:13.039 --> 01:34:19.079
just it's not just Fox or CNN
or TV. It's radio, it's online,

1098
01:34:19.079 --> 01:34:24.880
it's journalism in general, newspapers,
you name. It. Used to

1099
01:34:24.960 --> 01:34:28.760
be you would create content forever,
whatever it is you do, but now

1100
01:34:29.359 --> 01:34:32.199
your content gets utilized in a variety
of different ways. We were talking earlier

1101
01:34:32.199 --> 01:34:36.119
about Ross's Twitch stuff that he wants
to put on YouTube, and you got

1102
01:34:36.239 --> 01:34:40.520
to go multi platform. You got
to do this stuff. It drives clicks,

1103
01:34:40.560 --> 01:34:44.119
it drives views, listens, whatever
it is. So what they're talking

1104
01:34:44.119 --> 01:34:46.000
about Tucker with is they're saying,
Hey, you're going to do this,

1105
01:34:46.199 --> 01:34:49.359
this feature, this theme, this
interview. I don't know exactly what it

1106
01:34:49.520 --> 01:34:54.720
is, and you're gonna use like
five or six minutes of it on your

1107
01:34:54.760 --> 01:34:59.119
primetime show, but we want it
to be forty five minutes long. And

1108
01:34:59.640 --> 01:35:03.279
we're to use the rest of the
content as content for Fox Nation, right,

1109
01:35:03.279 --> 01:35:10.680
because you got to get all that
content on there. And and Carlson's

1110
01:35:10.760 --> 01:35:15.960
issue is they want they want the
way that it looks to be casual for

1111
01:35:15.119 --> 01:35:19.920
Fox Nation. But Carlson's pointing out
that they're going to air five or six

1112
01:35:20.039 --> 01:35:25.439
minutes of this on the primetime show
where it should look professional. And his

1113
01:35:25.640 --> 01:35:31.520
beef is why am I yielding my
standards to accommodate where the viewership is going

1114
01:35:31.560 --> 01:35:35.239
to be much much much lower.
I get his beef. I've had these

1115
01:35:35.359 --> 01:35:45.279
conversations before, maybe not this exact
conversation, but where you're trying to you're

1116
01:35:45.359 --> 01:35:47.319
trying to stick up for what it
is you think is going to be the

1117
01:35:47.399 --> 01:35:51.760
best for the content that you're producing, Okay, and that's got to meet

1118
01:35:51.800 --> 01:35:57.159
in the middle sometimes and you do
stuff and it's how it goes. It's

1119
01:35:58.359 --> 01:36:00.840
do you remember when Ross and I
pre COVID, we're doing that podcast where

1120
01:36:00.880 --> 01:36:03.720
we because we had to sit in
a studio to do and then we couldn't

1121
01:36:03.760 --> 01:36:06.399
do it after COVID and they're like, you need to do this thing,

1122
01:36:08.319 --> 01:36:10.359
but they didn't tell me what I
had to name it, So I named

1123
01:36:10.359 --> 01:36:15.880
it contractually obligated, right. That
was that was me meeting them in the

1124
01:36:15.920 --> 01:36:18.840
middle, but also being a kind
of a jerk about it because I thought

1125
01:36:18.880 --> 01:36:24.800
it was funny. That's the conversation
that Carlson's having. He's saying, I'm

1126
01:36:24.840 --> 01:36:28.560
the top rated cable news show.
If we're going to produce something, it

1127
01:36:28.640 --> 01:36:31.840
should look like it's quality that I
would air on the top rated cable news

1128
01:36:31.920 --> 01:36:38.680
show, and not the production not
have production value that's so low because it'll

1129
01:36:38.920 --> 01:36:44.119
be quote unquote fine on Fox Nation. That's what's going on here. But

1130
01:36:44.319 --> 01:36:49.479
anyway, that's just my view.
Um uh, just frustrated. But it's

1131
01:36:49.520 --> 01:36:53.680
hard to use that site. I
don't know why they're not fixing it.

1132
01:36:53.840 --> 01:36:58.239
It's driving me insane. And they're
like making like lifetime movies, but they

1133
01:36:58.239 --> 01:37:00.680
don't. They don't work on the
infrastructure of the right, like what.

1134
01:37:00.359 --> 01:37:04.239
It's crazy and it drives me crazy
because it's like we're doing all this extra

1135
01:37:04.319 --> 01:37:08.479
work and no one can find it. It's unbelievable. Actually at you.

1136
01:37:08.600 --> 01:37:12.479
I don't know who runs that site. Trunk on the show tomorrow night.

1137
01:37:12.600 --> 01:37:15.439
That's the plan, all right,
I'm not but this is what they think

1138
01:37:15.560 --> 01:37:19.039
is the big gotcha. And the
irony is like CNN's running this stuff.

1139
01:37:19.640 --> 01:37:24.520
Um, Ross, Uh, how
CNN plus doing Would you look into that

1140
01:37:24.600 --> 01:37:26.520
real quick? Ross is gonna check
on that, all right, let me

1141
01:37:26.600 --> 01:37:29.600
check? Oh not good? Oh
what good? Yeah it's not there?

1142
01:37:30.000 --> 01:37:38.880
Oh gone, just oh man in
a big just cloud of mist This is

1143
01:37:39.119 --> 01:37:43.960
this is the reality of what what
the industry is. And it's not necessarily

1144
01:37:44.000 --> 01:37:46.439
a bad thing, but you gotta
you got you gotta pick what you're doing,

1145
01:37:46.479 --> 01:37:48.479
and you gotta stick up for your
end of it. And that's what

1146
01:37:48.600 --> 01:37:54.880
Carlson's doing there, and arguably he's
not even that's not Bill O'Reilly screaming at

1147
01:37:54.920 --> 01:37:57.640
the end of Inside Edition. No, and I say this too. If

1148
01:37:57.760 --> 01:38:02.399
Carlson is having this opinion on it, guarantee there are actual viewers who are

1149
01:38:02.479 --> 01:38:05.920
trying to use the app who are
having the same experience. I've talked to

1150
01:38:06.000 --> 01:38:11.439
people said this, Yeah, they
like Fox. They want a product,

1151
01:38:11.560 --> 01:38:14.279
especially a product that they're paying for. They want it to be functional.

1152
01:38:14.439 --> 01:38:16.119
And if it is that bad,
then people are going to see this supposed

1153
01:38:16.239 --> 01:38:18.760
leaked stuff from Media matters and be
like, well, yeah, I mean

1154
01:38:18.800 --> 01:38:21.279
that's why I like him, because
I agree with him because that's relatable.

1155
01:38:23.199 --> 01:38:26.880
He's I mean, he's saying,
let's make it work, you know,

1156
01:38:26.960 --> 01:38:29.760
let's not de incentivize me. It's
like when people send an email, I'll

1157
01:38:29.760 --> 01:38:31.800
tell people the podcast or whatever,
right, and I'll send an email.

1158
01:38:32.000 --> 01:38:34.399
I tried to do it and it
didn't work, and I want them to

1159
01:38:34.439 --> 01:38:38.479
be able to access it in ninety
nine point nine percent of the time.

1160
01:38:38.600 --> 01:38:41.439
Either you got to update your browser, use a different browser if you're on

1161
01:38:41.560 --> 01:38:45.800
that, or see if the apps
updated, right, because I want people

1162
01:38:45.840 --> 01:38:50.199
to be able to check our podcasts. That kind of this is all you

1163
01:38:50.239 --> 01:38:54.319
know, this is all new stuff. Race Agent from the Weather Channel.

1164
01:38:54.880 --> 01:38:58.800
I'm not I don't want you to
divulge company secrets, but you would agree

1165
01:38:58.920 --> 01:39:01.560
that you know, no longer is
it a guy with a stick pointing at

1166
01:39:01.640 --> 01:39:06.520
a map right right in the world
of weather. It's everything is everything is

1167
01:39:06.600 --> 01:39:10.600
different. You got to embrace the
digital and you want to put your efforts

1168
01:39:10.640 --> 01:39:13.680
where it's appreciated. But you also
want the tech to work so you can

1169
01:39:13.760 --> 01:39:16.159
expand what you're doing. It's the
worst gotcha thing I've ever seen here.

1170
01:39:16.239 --> 01:39:20.119
So yeah it is. Yeah,
you know, different graphics and yeah,

1171
01:39:20.239 --> 01:39:26.119
the you know the immersed reality or
I AMAR and all that, and yeah

1172
01:39:26.159 --> 01:39:29.039
they do all that, compared to
its just a green screen too. I

1173
01:39:29.119 --> 01:39:31.880
mean it's huge, it's it's it's
just big, and you know it is

1174
01:39:31.920 --> 01:39:33.960
what it is. Either like it
or you don't. I mean yeah,

1175
01:39:34.119 --> 01:39:38.720
And so him wanting the stuff to
work. I don't understand why they think

1176
01:39:38.800 --> 01:39:44.399
this is anyway real quick, ye, lots of traditional weather, Yeah why

1177
01:39:44.439 --> 01:39:45.720
not? I mean it's simple,
Yeah, yeah, why not. You've

1178
01:39:45.720 --> 01:39:49.239
got a lot of sun mid up
her sixties today and tomorrow, gusty winds.

1179
01:39:49.239 --> 01:39:54.039
There are some wind advisories near the
Triad and points west and into the

1180
01:39:54.119 --> 01:39:56.960
mountains. I think better towards the
end of the week with less wind and

1181
01:39:57.079 --> 01:40:00.560
warmer weather, still plenty of sunshine, so nice roll. We'll go up

1182
01:40:00.600 --> 01:40:03.640
for sixties, low seventies for Thursday
and Friday. Might be some showers Saturday,

1183
01:40:03.640 --> 01:40:06.760
and then Sunday watch sunback. We
could be closer to eighty for some

1184
01:40:06.920 --> 01:40:10.680
spots by Sunday, and that'll be
a nice warming trend that I think is

1185
01:40:10.680 --> 01:40:13.840
going to start as we get into
at the end of the weekend and early

1186
01:40:13.920 --> 01:40:15.600
next week. All right, appreciate
it, sir, Thank you, and

1187
01:40:15.920 --> 01:40:28.680
we'll come back chat with Jeff Bellinger
next. Hang on, but now celebrating

1188
01:40:28.800 --> 01:40:33.000
ten years and still going strong.
Thank you. Casey is on ninety four

1189
01:40:33.119 --> 01:40:39.159
five WPTI in the Triad and one
oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle.

1190
01:40:39.880 --> 01:40:42.840
All right, eight fifty three Bloomberg
Update Now, Jeff Bellinger, what's

1191
01:40:42.880 --> 01:40:45.399
happening? Well, Good morning,
Casey. Stock market futures a little bit

1192
01:40:45.520 --> 01:40:49.039
lower this morning. The now futures
are down eighty five points at the moment.

1193
01:40:49.279 --> 01:40:54.199
The Federal Reserve is about to open
a two day policy meeting in Washington.

1194
01:40:54.359 --> 01:40:59.359
It's widely expected another quarter percentage point
interest rate hike will be announced on

1195
01:40:59.479 --> 01:41:03.039
that session ends tomorrow. It's expected
that work on late night talk shows and

1196
01:41:03.159 --> 01:41:08.680
soap operas will shut down immediately now
that the Hollywood writers have gone on strike.

1197
01:41:09.039 --> 01:41:12.479
If the walkout drags on, it
will have an impact on fall TV

1198
01:41:12.640 --> 01:41:16.119
schedules and movie releases. The last
Writers Guild strike was in two thousand and

1199
01:41:16.199 --> 01:41:20.680
seven. It forced the networks to
abbreviate the season for dozens of popular shows.

1200
01:41:21.039 --> 01:41:25.760
Some shows ended up canceled, and
it was estimated the strike cost the

1201
01:41:25.840 --> 01:41:30.239
Los Angeles area economy about two and
a half billion dollars and talks among congressional

1202
01:41:30.359 --> 01:41:33.319
leaders in the White House over raising
the debt. Sea Link could take on

1203
01:41:33.439 --> 01:41:39.760
new urgency. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen
says her agency's ability to keep paying the

1204
01:41:39.880 --> 01:41:44.600
government bills is limited. The Treasury
could run out of money as soon as

1205
01:41:44.720 --> 01:41:47.479
next month. And the year got
off to a strong start for Uber Casey.

1206
01:41:47.600 --> 01:41:53.239
The company posted first quarter earnings the
top Wall Street forecasts. Higher prices

1207
01:41:53.279 --> 01:41:58.439
and uncertainty about the economy have not
kept consumers from spending more on rides and

1208
01:41:58.560 --> 01:42:02.319
food delivery while they back in other
areas. Casey, all right, Jeff,

1209
01:42:02.399 --> 01:42:05.079
thank you. Talk to you tomorrow, sir. Okay, sounds good.

1210
01:42:05.119 --> 01:42:08.479
Have a good day. All right, there you go. Jeff Bellinger

1211
01:42:08.640 --> 01:42:15.920
from Bloomberg News. Dude, I
tell you so, yesterday I didn't want

1212
01:42:15.960 --> 01:42:18.039
to cook anything, so I went
to the KFC, as you do,

1213
01:42:18.640 --> 01:42:24.000
Rosty, do KFC? Or do
you like churches or bojang? What do

1214
01:42:24.039 --> 01:42:28.319
you get your Yeah, I'm down
with the KFC. So I went in

1215
01:42:28.439 --> 01:42:31.520
there and um, I got the
four four pieces right. You know how

1216
01:42:31.520 --> 01:42:35.079
they asked if you want white or
dark meat? Right? So I'm like,

1217
01:42:35.399 --> 01:42:39.800
ah, I will have the dark
meat. So if if I ordered

1218
01:42:39.840 --> 01:42:44.960
four pieces of chicken, and I
said I opted for dark meat, what

1219
01:42:45.079 --> 01:42:47.880
do you think would be in there? Right? Because there's four there's four

1220
01:42:47.920 --> 01:42:50.680
different kinds of pieces of chicken,
two or white, two or dark.

1221
01:42:51.199 --> 01:42:55.359
If you just get four piece regular, you get to end up getting basically

1222
01:42:55.399 --> 01:42:58.760
a half chicken. You get a
breast, a drumstick, a wing,

1223
01:42:59.079 --> 01:43:00.680
and a thought. Right, right, you're not gonna get the breast.

1224
01:43:01.760 --> 01:43:04.960
What's up you you and get the
breast? Would you know if you get

1225
01:43:05.000 --> 01:43:09.159
the dark meat, you're getting right? You should be thigh and drumstick and

1226
01:43:09.199 --> 01:43:12.359
you should get too, right,
I would think so, yes. So

1227
01:43:12.520 --> 01:43:14.640
anyway, I thought maybe it was
a trick question or something. No,

1228
01:43:14.840 --> 01:43:18.239
no, well, apparently it is
for the person at the KFC, because

1229
01:43:18.880 --> 01:43:21.800
initially he hands me and I could
say I saw him putting it in,

1230
01:43:21.840 --> 01:43:25.039
because you know they get with the
tongs off the little thing, and I

1231
01:43:25.119 --> 01:43:27.880
see him put the four pieces,
and I'm ah, maybe he didn't see

1232
01:43:27.920 --> 01:43:29.680
that it was dark meat. Said
no, no, no, no,

1233
01:43:30.039 --> 01:43:32.880
I supposed to be just dark meat. He turned around and looked at me

1234
01:43:33.000 --> 01:43:38.359
like I just insulted his mother.
I was very polite about it, so

1235
01:43:38.680 --> 01:43:44.000
anyway. I then watch him take
the drumstick out of the box and grab

1236
01:43:44.760 --> 01:43:48.439
another wing, and I'm like,
no, no dark meat, and he

1237
01:43:48.600 --> 01:43:54.359
turns around. Now I've insulted his
whole flipping family, right. He then

1238
01:43:54.479 --> 01:43:59.000
takes the box in a frustrated manner, sets it down, grabs a new

1239
01:43:59.119 --> 01:44:03.760
box to put the four in,
and proceeds to put three drumsticks and a

1240
01:44:03.920 --> 01:44:10.760
chicken breast in there. And I'm
like, I've come this far, and

1241
01:44:10.920 --> 01:44:15.279
I'm like, no, it's I
would have even taken one thigh and the

1242
01:44:15.399 --> 01:44:18.640
three drumsticks, but I want the
two thighs and the two drumstick. And

1243
01:44:18.760 --> 01:44:25.760
I'm thinking to myself, I don't
know the training at KFC. I've never

1244
01:44:25.840 --> 01:44:30.880
worked at a KFC. Don't you
think on day one you're gonna cover what

1245
01:44:31.159 --> 01:44:36.560
the four pieces of chicken you sell
are? I think at this point they're

1246
01:44:36.640 --> 01:44:40.000
like, oh my god, there's
somebody that actually wants to work here.

1247
01:44:40.920 --> 01:44:45.039
Just put on the apron and scoop
the mashed potatoes. I think I was

1248
01:44:45.079 --> 01:44:49.600
excited to have employees. I was
super polite about it, and I got

1249
01:44:49.680 --> 01:44:51.920
the slaw with it. You know, it comes. You get the four

1250
01:44:51.960 --> 01:44:55.479
and they get the slaw on the
biscuit and the So now I got left

1251
01:44:55.520 --> 01:44:58.680
over chicken. I'm very excited.
So a case in point, I ended

1252
01:44:58.760 --> 01:45:01.680
up with one thigh and three drumsticks, and I'm just and I even though

1253
01:45:01.760 --> 01:45:04.720
technically I should have two thighs and
two drumsticks and it's a whole thing,

1254
01:45:04.800 --> 01:45:09.439
but yeah, I was just like
and I again, I was polite the

1255
01:45:09.520 --> 01:45:14.520
whole time, but I'm like,
bro, you don't know the parts of

1256
01:45:14.600 --> 01:45:20.359
the chicken, and you work at
the KFC. This is the easy stuff.

1257
01:45:20.439 --> 01:45:26.079
I get the intricacies of, like
the computer system like that, but

1258
01:45:26.960 --> 01:45:31.479
job one, here's a chicken.
Here's the parts of the chicken. Any

1259
01:45:32.680 --> 01:45:35.760
but it was still good, so
all right, And on that note, we gotta
