WEBVTT

1
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:21.519
You know, if I never opened
my microphone, we're never back and then

2
00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:29.039
it doesn't count and reality doesn't have
the sett up. So but unfortunately I

3
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:33.600
did. So here we be happy
Tuesday, everybody. It is the new

4
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:38.399
your edition, new Look, New
Resolutions. Don't know what they are k

5
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:46.520
Coo Day Radio program. Oh and
you know new first Early Alarm for a

6
00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:52.200
while. So but we made it, Ross and I alive. Ross did

7
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:56.840
not self immolate, as many of
you sent me emails asking, because there's

8
00:00:56.840 --> 00:01:00.520
some video you may have seen on
the Internet of Bill's fans ofame. So

9
00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:06.599
yeah, there was that. Although
I was thinking about it, Ross,

10
00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:08.959
if I was going to be a
fandom who self immolated, I would want

11
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:14.680
to be a Panthers guy because then
the owner would throw liquid on me to

12
00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:18.239
put me out. So I mean, that's got to be one of the

13
00:01:18.239 --> 00:01:23.280
benefits of owning a team, right
right, what being a billionaire throwing your

14
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.239
drink on Well, technically it wasn't
a Panthers fan. It was a Jags

15
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:30.799
fan, but whatever, man,
that whole thing is crazy. I mean,

16
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:34.959
I get the frustration, but it
would I guess it would be the

17
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:42.280
frustration of everyone else because, like, if Ross is frustrated was something his

18
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:46.560
team is doing or I'm frustrated with
something my team is doing. Really,

19
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:51.359
all we can do is complain about
it. I mean, granted we have

20
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:53.680
a little bigger soapbox, but we
can't do it. But if we own

21
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:59.480
the team, right, right,
you can't sit there as the owner of

22
00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:00.879
the team be like, you know
what they need to do. They need

23
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:06.640
to they need to throw out this
plan that they've they've they've been doing,

24
00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:08.840
and and go and try to get
draft picks. Like you're the owner,

25
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:14.599
so you can actually do stuff.
You're not just some fan complaining about what

26
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:22.199
he thinks should be done. So
like your your your frustration should be somewhat

27
00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:28.120
tempered because you can actively assist in
whatever the problem is. So, yeah,

28
00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:30.360
that story is crazy. It wasn't
by the way, it wasn't just

29
00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:35.599
one Bills fan. It was like
three different ones. So I don't I

30
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:38.280
don't know what was different, man, But there you go. Yeah,

31
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:43.599
I mean, I mean it's gonna
be a stressful week, and sometimes the

32
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.800
best way to deal with stress is
to let yourself on fire. Is is

33
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:53.319
that jump through a table? Yeah? Yeah, I mean some people do

34
00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:57.879
yoga, not fire. They do
the hot. Yeah, say, is

35
00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:00.080
there fire yoga? Well, there's
hot yoga, right, that's the thing

36
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.759
where they do the yoga in a
room that's really hot. So then,

37
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:08.400
oh my, when I worked in
Omaha in the building on the bottom floor,

38
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:12.919
there was one of those hot yoga
places, and like you'd go outside

39
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:15.840
and there was always people like just
dripping sweat. Yeah, oh it's so

40
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:20.360
bad. Yeah, but they weren't
on fire. They were not. Oh

41
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:23.560
okay, all right, so I
guess maybe that's a new classification. How

42
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:29.159
was how was Vaca for you?
Trap? The first week was absolutely horrible.

43
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.199
Lincoln and I were incredibly sick with
the RSV. Oh no, it

44
00:03:32.360 --> 00:03:37.400
was so bad, including like having
to drive down to Louisiana with that on

45
00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:43.240
Friday. We're cleared up by Saturday. We stopped on Airbnb in Alabama,

46
00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:46.639
absolutely beautiful. It was nice when
we got to Louisiana with the in laws.

47
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:51.240
It was a great time. When
Marky got sick, she was only

48
00:03:51.240 --> 00:03:53.439
sicking for about three or four days. But it was absolutely horrible. But

49
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:58.280
the second week was pretty good.
Okay, all right, got so much

50
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:03.240
bill stuff. I yeah, I
was gonna ask new hat, new hat,

51
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:10.039
these red, white, and blue
Bills, Sneakers. Okay, Josh

52
00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:14.439
Allen Jersey, get that America so
much stuff, dude, Okay, all

53
00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:17.560
right, you know what, here's
the thing though, I know that you

54
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:21.800
guys like to play the early game. You don't like to play outside of

55
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:30.360
that. However, you you have
the best position for this scenario in front

56
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:32.759
of you. Do you know what
I mean? It is? So yeah,

57
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:36.600
it's gonna be Bills at Miami on
Sunday night. They moved this Sunday

58
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:40.600
out of the Miami Sun so they
don't have that advantage in their stupid stadium

59
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:44.199
here. They're very sad about they
are. Yes, if the Bills win,

60
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:46.360
they take the division and then they
are the number two seed. If

61
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:53.360
they lose, then either the Ravens
have to beat Pittsburgh or the Titans have

62
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:56.680
to beat Jacksonville and then they'll be
the sixth seed. Yeah, but it

63
00:04:56.680 --> 00:04:59.680
doesn't happen and they're out. But
with my point though, but by the

64
00:04:59.720 --> 00:05:04.000
time you play, you'll know what
yeah right, So, which means there

65
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:10.480
is a definite possibility I will have
a heart attack on Sunday night if it's

66
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:14.399
for all of them. Yeah,
like like, because are the Ravens gonna

67
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:16.399
play their starters. They've already clinched, right, so they might put their

68
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:21.120
backups. So if Pittsburgh beats the
Ravens backups, then it's over and the

69
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:24.800
Bills are out. But then the
Bills have to win that game on Sunday

70
00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:27.000
night to get the two seed.
So you wanted that point. It's two

71
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:29.279
seed or nothing? Yeah, yeah, yeah, do you want to trade?

72
00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:33.399
I mean, what is your I'm
not really familiar with the NFC stand

73
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:40.639
Like, how how is it looking
for the Vikings? Well, where we

74
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:43.920
still have we still have a chance. Why are you why are you getting

75
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:46.959
up in front of that Glenn Beck
chalkboy. Yeah, yeah, it's a

76
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:49.480
it's a it's a whole thing here. I'm gonna need some red yarn so

77
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:54.879
I can attach. So we need
to have like five different teams lose and

78
00:05:54.920 --> 00:06:01.439
then of course win and and so
it it's a tougher path. And you

79
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:06.040
know we're playing the Lions too,
but there's there's a chance they're leading the

80
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:11.720
division. Yeah, we need we
need like five different like there's four teams

81
00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:15.839
that have to lose specific I know
everyone's just on the edge of their seat

82
00:06:15.879 --> 00:06:18.199
over this hold on. All right, So the Seahawks, Saints, and

83
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:20.920
Packer. I'm sorry, we need
four teams to lose. Seahawks, Saints,

84
00:06:20.959 --> 00:06:26.879
and Packers all have to lose,
and then either the Falcons or Buccaneers.

85
00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:30.000
So we need four teams to lose. You just probably have to go

86
00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:34.079
in and hell, you probably don't
even have to play for it, you

87
00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:39.839
know what I mean. So I
don't think the Ravens are just gonna sit

88
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:44.199
everybody unless I'm missing something because you
know, home field, homefield, baby,

89
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.759
Well I guess they did. Then
twenty nineteen and twenty nineteen, the

90
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:51.000
Ravens they got the number one seed. Yeah, like you know, before

91
00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:54.279
the end, like the second week
of the end of the season, like

92
00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:57.600
week seventeen or sixteen, whatever it
was, right, and then in that

93
00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:00.120
final game they saw all their starters. But then they had a bye week

94
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:02.279
the next week because they had,
you know, their number one seed,

95
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:05.079
and then they lost in their game
because they've been sitting out, and they

96
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:09.319
then played in like two or three
weeks. Yeah, that's a mess at

97
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:16.240
NFC is just a mess too,
like Eagles getting beat and a Cowboys benefiting

98
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:24.800
from apparently a little confusion about who
or who isn't an eligible receiver. That's,

99
00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:30.360
you know, just the latest in
a long line of whoopsies. Although

100
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:32.800
now the NFL is saying it's Detroit's
even though you could see the video,

101
00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:35.160
but then you hear the state of
the whole thing is a mess. But

102
00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:39.480
oh, dude, dude, we
got a we got a New Year's Eve

103
00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:45.040
Christmas card in the mail. Okay, I open this at four am when

104
00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:47.000
I got here, but got here
before you. Yeah. I put it

105
00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:51.319
in Kyle's studio because give me,
I gotta go get you'll understand why I

106
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:54.639
put it in kyle studio. Give
me one saying all right, oh,

107
00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:58.399
hold on, hold on, Ross's
off, Ross's trekking. All right.

108
00:07:58.439 --> 00:08:01.319
You didn't have to track far.
It's just right next to the studio here,

109
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:07.800
all right, all right, it's
not running right, Oh, here

110
00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:11.279
we go. All right. So
I opened this card. Yeah, and

111
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:16.560
it says meow Christmas. It's it's
to you and I good. Yeah,

112
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:20.000
I open it. M hm.
It says Merry Christmas and a happy meow

113
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:26.680
year. Merry Christmas from the Griffith
family and your cat Whiskey, your friend

114
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:31.120
from twitch griff zero three one seven. And I opened it. It's been

115
00:08:31.159 --> 00:08:37.600
doing this and it won't stop.
Well there it's been going. It's been

116
00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:41.120
going for two hours and fifteen minutes. Like you know, in engineering,

117
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:48.639
there's lots of tools. Oh it's
horrible. You know what. I was

118
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:52.200
trying to do commercial production records of
stuff, and I'm like, this thing

119
00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:54.840
won't stop. Here's what you need
to do, all right, during the

120
00:08:54.879 --> 00:09:01.200
break go down, go down the
sales and find one of the cubes where

121
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.600
nobody's in it, and then just
stick it in the door there, so

122
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:09.840
that all day in sales, I
need to put it in the drop ceiling.

123
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:15.080
Yeah. Yeah, Like faintly they're
just like, what is going on?

124
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:22.960
Cat dying? Oh that is awful? Okay, all right, we'll

125
00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:26.240
go with that. Dude, put
that, put that in. Yeah,

126
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:28.840
go take that and go do something? Drops it? What the hell?

127
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:33.799
Man? Oh dude? All right? So uh yeah, we got but

128
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:37.799
we got news. We got.
I don't know why. I don't know

129
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:43.759
why. Annually there's always these stories
that almost almost let's just be very clear,

130
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:46.000
almost make us want to come or
be at least come back and do

131
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:52.159
a show. Not that we're gonna
do that, but we got to talk

132
00:09:52.200 --> 00:10:00.879
about Reverend William Barber insanity because of
course everybody, everybody who's covered uh uh

133
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:09.039
the Reverend Barber over the years in
their mind can probably surmise how that whole

134
00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:15.200
movie theater scenario went. And like
there's this lack of critical processing of the

135
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:20.000
information and thinking to at least bring
about questions that you may have about the

136
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:28.279
official scenario that was expoused during his
press conference, like reasonable questions. And

137
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:35.360
you can also reasonably think that if
possible, accommodating him because he's he does

138
00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:43.320
have health issues is also something that
you know, I don't have a you

139
00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:45.519
know, if you if you're a
business and you want to be able to

140
00:10:45.519 --> 00:10:50.039
accommodate that you have a way to
do that, then than good I got.

141
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:54.600
I got the The whole thing is
is just stupid squared man, and

142
00:10:54.559 --> 00:11:00.759
had to watch all that play out. We got at all sorts of research

143
00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:09.759
insanity. We've got secretaries of state
in in this case Michigan just deciding just

144
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:16.080
partisan partisan grabs. Man. It's
just craziness. And we'll try to get

145
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.799
in everything we can and smash that
card to pieces coming up here on the

146
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:28.039
CaCO Day Radio program one O six
one FM Talk w PTI, two stations

147
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:35.279
driving the best in talk. This
is Cacoday and Carolina's Morning News. All

148
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:39.919
right, good morning, six twenty
four here on the CaCO Day radio program.

149
00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:43.080
I didn't run it through the keys
since it was a little more light

150
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:48.679
hearted. I was doing that.
But one other story, and I want

151
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.840
to make sure we we hit now
and of course later in the show as

152
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:58.360
well. Very tragic story out of
Greensboro. And I mean, just so

153
00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:05.120
many irustrating angles as you go through
this. The Greensboro Police Department Sergeant Philip

154
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.240
Dale Nicks, who was a watch
commander, who was off duty by the

155
00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:15.720
way at the time, just stopping
it a sheets, it's the sheets on

156
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:22.600
Sandy Ridge, attempted to confront three
individuals. I saw it at first.

157
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:26.240
I saw somebody refer to as juveniles, but nobody's under the age of eighteen.

158
00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:28.639
Apparently two of the folks arrested eighteen, the other one twenty eight.

159
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:37.600
Lengthy histories of larceny, drugs,
you name it. Who apparently decided they

160
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:43.399
were going to go into the sheets
and get themselves. Let's see here eighty

161
00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:48.080
three dollars worth of medello cases of
beer. I don't know what that comes

162
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:50.960
out to. What is a case
of medello. Was that three or four

163
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:56.240
cases and you know, and then
do the hip new thing where you just

164
00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:01.120
don't pay just to roll out of
there. It just so happened that Nicks

165
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:07.399
was there and attempted to intervene.
According to the you know, the warn't

166
00:13:07.399 --> 00:13:13.679
reports we've seen, it also sounds
like there may have been some sort of

167
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:22.799
bolo of some sorts on one or
two of the individuals. But while attempting

168
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:26.159
to intervene, one of the eighteen
year olds, identified as Jamior Foster,

169
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:35.320
according to authorities, decided he was
he was not going to be captured,

170
00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:41.919
and even though there was some first
responders on scene, they were not able

171
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:48.039
to save the Greensboro officer it previously
had worked. Let's see his detective,

172
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:54.399
let's see here. And so there
was another off duty officer in a Guildford

173
00:13:54.399 --> 00:14:01.039
County paramedic who were at the gas
station who attempted to aid, but by

174
00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:07.320
then it was just too late.
M let's see you here court the police

175
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:11.679
department, Nicks worked many assignments,
including criminal investigations, detective, patrol sergeant

176
00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:22.919
and most recently supervisor of the Family
Victims Unit. Let's see, so Foster

177
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:28.399
is who they believe killed them.
And then the other two arrested. Oh

178
00:14:28.799 --> 00:14:33.279
look, I have an apostrophe in
my name, but I don't even know

179
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:43.799
what this the Quera z apostrophe Choir
Querra, Lapierce Blackwell and John Morrison,

180
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:52.360
the other two arrested over eighty three
dollars worth of beer and this idea that

181
00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:54.039
hey, you just if you want
some, just walk in and take it.

182
00:14:54.039 --> 00:15:01.519
Who's going to stop you? And
in this case, off duty officer

183
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:03.639
who said, you know what,
but I'm an officer. I mean,

184
00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:11.159
very often, very often, we
have these scenarios where they're they're off work,

185
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:16.000
but they're not off work. And
in this case, you have an

186
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:22.480
eighteen year old who just decided,
Hey, I'm gonna I'm gonna go in

187
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:24.080
here, I'm gonna take whatever I
want. This is what they're alleging.

188
00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:28.360
And what are you gonna do about
it? And this this scenario unfolded,

189
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:33.679
and I can't help but be really
frustrated. Then when I when I see

190
00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:39.720
these articles which are just adorned with
all of these Twitter statements from individuals who

191
00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:48.759
I feel, through either their policies
or attitudes or rhetoric or pandering or whatever

192
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:54.159
it may be, contribute to this
I don't lay it all at their feet.

193
00:15:54.200 --> 00:15:56.480
You know, people, people will
be committing crimes for a long time.

194
00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.559
But when every time you get more
permissive on stuff like this, and

195
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:04.600
people honestly think, hey, I
could just walk into a gas station with

196
00:16:04.879 --> 00:16:07.840
arm, you know, under my
arms full of cases of beer and walk

197
00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:10.879
out. What are you going to
do about it? Or go to a

198
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:17.720
CBS lease that. I mean,
that's it. It can't help but add

199
00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:22.879
to create a scenario where this might
this might in fact be be something that

200
00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:26.639
plays out. So excuse me if
I roll my eyes on some of this

201
00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:30.679
stuff. But I don't want to
make a hyperpartisan but it's really frustrated and

202
00:16:32.200 --> 00:16:37.159
my thoughts with everybody in law enforcement, especially the Greensboro Police Department. We'll

203
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:47.639
be back hang on ARK Talk all
day ninety four five WPTI in the Triad

204
00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:53.200
and one six one FM Talk in
the Triangle. All right, welcome back

205
00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:57.720
six thirty five here on your Tuesday
morning, as we try to get back

206
00:16:57.759 --> 00:17:02.480
into the swing of things, all
be it through a new and positive lens

207
00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:06.720
and outlook on the twenty twenty four
and what may be in store. But

208
00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:14.200
or dude, I saw now and
look, it's like every man on the

209
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:15.559
street thing. I didn't put this
in the prep, but they were like

210
00:17:15.720 --> 00:17:19.240
asking people what they're hopeful in the
new year. And you'd have thought that

211
00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:23.319
they were interviewing a bunch of like
angry New Yorkers and it was like in

212
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:30.559
Missouri or something. So I don't
have people are there's some optimism about there,

213
00:17:30.559 --> 00:17:33.519
but a lot of people, man, they're just in a funk.

214
00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:37.920
So we'll see, will continue to
cover the news that goes from there,

215
00:17:37.960 --> 00:17:41.200
and and look, there's reasons out
there, there's stories, there's tough stories.

216
00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:45.720
We're doing this morning, we were
just talking about what happened with this

217
00:17:45.720 --> 00:17:52.960
this this this murder of a Greensboro
while off duty, still somebody who was

218
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:56.559
acting in that capacity and willing to
even do so when they're just, you

219
00:17:56.599 --> 00:18:02.960
know, stopping by the convenience store
to grab a few things. When confronted

220
00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:07.039
with individuals who just think they can
do whatever the hell they please. And

221
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:11.319
I feel like we're allowed to have
conversations why that attitude may be becoming more

222
00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:22.920
permissive or more persuasive within society.
And it's very frustrating to read the ways

223
00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:27.559
in which some people are responding to
it. All right, let's get let's

224
00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:30.799
get a call or to a few
other stories as well. Mike, you're

225
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:37.279
up first, what's up? Yeah, twenty five year retired deputy out of

226
00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:44.039
Massachusetts, sixty five, retired down
here to get out of the cold weather.

227
00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:53.519
Right, you're always on duty,
you get sworn in and believers like

228
00:18:53.680 --> 00:19:02.000
doctors and nurses, Lauren, enforcement
is a calling like a firefighter, and

229
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:08.279
that officers stepped up. My condolences
to the Greensboro PD and to the family.

230
00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:15.480
You hurt one, you hurt us
all. We all bleed blue,

231
00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:25.039
as we say, and it's a
terrible thing. But our society has gone

232
00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:33.000
to heck in a handasket, and
children are not being taught morals, and

233
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:40.000
this is what we end up with. And this happened first thing this morning,

234
00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:44.640
from what I understand. No,
this this happened over the weekend,

235
00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:51.519
but obviously we're getting into it this
morning. Yeah, I enjoyed the show,

236
00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:53.480
by the way, Casey, well, thank you. Yeah, this

237
00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:59.920
happened on Saturday specifically, sir,
but thank you for listening. And yeah,

238
00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:06.039
now that is my understanding. And
again, I just whatever you can

239
00:20:06.119 --> 00:20:14.119
do to have a society that is
it is less likely you're always going to

240
00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:17.559
have people regardless, Right, there's
still people in you know, think of

241
00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:22.039
the like Singapore where you know they'll
cane you for putting chewing gum on it.

242
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:25.160
There's still going to be people that
break the law. You have to

243
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:30.440
ask yourself, you know, where
is that balance of you know, how

244
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:36.400
strict and how thorough enforcement is going
to be versus And I understand balancing other

245
00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:41.400
interests, right, We're still we're
still handing over to other people the ability

246
00:20:41.440 --> 00:20:45.960
to remove a constitutional right for us
under a very certain set of circumstances.

247
00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:49.279
And that is you know, that's
something that has to be managed and governed

248
00:20:51.440 --> 00:20:55.480
by individuals. But the more permissive
you get, the more likely people think

249
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:59.799
they can do something right. There's
a reason people will speed in some places

250
00:20:59.839 --> 00:21:03.519
and not others. And there's a
reason that some people will get in their

251
00:21:03.559 --> 00:21:08.160
head that they can go in and
that they can commit larceny with zero repercussions,

252
00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:12.400
even within a defined dollar amount.
That's why you see people adding stuff

253
00:21:12.480 --> 00:21:21.559
up in stores they're looting in California. So yeah, when I started seeing

254
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:26.759
that thing swing, that pendulum swing
too far, I'll call it out.

255
00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:33.400
And why you can never prove that
that would be it. I don't think

256
00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:38.680
it's a big logical leap to wonder
if one contributes to the other. By

257
00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:42.240
the way, it was also the
first time here we go that they issued

258
00:21:42.240 --> 00:21:45.519
a blue alert, right, So
you've seeing the alerts we have. We

259
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:49.759
got silver alerts here, we got
all of that, which at first when

260
00:21:49.839 --> 00:21:53.720
moved to North Carolina, like,
what's the different swit's of silver alert versus

261
00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:57.640
namber alert, all of that,
But in this case, what was issued

262
00:21:57.680 --> 00:22:03.279
on Saturday was a blue alt,
which actually was added to the system in

263
00:22:03.359 --> 00:22:08.519
twenty sixteen, and basically blue.
Right, you're thinking law enforcement, Yes,

264
00:22:08.680 --> 00:22:14.799
that's what attracts with Blue alerts were
to be issued when a suspect poses

265
00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:18.240
imminent incredible threats to law enforcement or
when an officer is missing in the line

266
00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:22.839
of duty. And apparently according to
state archives, this was the first time

267
00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:29.400
it's ever been used, been around
for you know, eight years or whatever.

268
00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:33.799
I saw people reacting to that on
Twitter. I'm not even gonna get

269
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.279
into all this stuff. Why is
there a separate you know why? Because

270
00:22:37.359 --> 00:22:45.440
if somebody is willing to shoot a
police officer, it's in the minds of

271
00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:49.200
most people it's an escalation and now
it also is going to create a much

272
00:22:49.279 --> 00:22:56.960
more in the I would assume in
the suspect's mind, a scenario where you

273
00:22:56.160 --> 00:23:00.839
have to assume that the blowback is
going to be fierce, and you know,

274
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:06.519
desperation sets in or whatever, and
you have somebody who is out there,

275
00:23:06.559 --> 00:23:08.960
who is violent, who is willing
to shoot a law enforcement officer,

276
00:23:11.359 --> 00:23:17.759
and I haven't seen specifically if he
identify I'm sure he did, who is

277
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:25.039
absolute danger, menace to society.
So you know, that's why you have

278
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:33.200
this scenario. That's that's that's that's
that's potentially a worse situation and a more

279
00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:38.519
volatile situation than just your standard be
on the lookout. Here's a short description

280
00:23:38.599 --> 00:23:45.680
of a guy who broke in and
stole something. Let's see here. Yeah,

281
00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:51.440
I just got the various comments from
the governor, Lieutenant governor, Josh

282
00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:57.480
Stein, you name it, all
included in the article here and incredibly frustrating.

283
00:23:57.799 --> 00:24:02.440
I wonder if Reverend Barber will have
a pressure on this or if we're

284
00:24:02.440 --> 00:24:07.599
just going to stick to movie theater
seating options. I guess we'll have to

285
00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:10.279
wait and see. Now here's what
I'm gonna do on that, because I

286
00:24:10.279 --> 00:24:11.519
got to set up the story.
I see some of you already want to

287
00:24:11.559 --> 00:24:22.079
comment on this. Holding is crazy
just in the inability of people who know

288
00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:26.480
better, anyone who's worked in the
media here for years. Just like any

289
00:24:26.519 --> 00:24:30.599
other story, as you're reporting on
it and you're gathering information, you're also

290
00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:36.680
running it through what is supposed to
be your professional filter, right to determine

291
00:24:36.720 --> 00:24:41.240
all right, look, here's something
we know, but here's some questions that

292
00:24:41.279 --> 00:24:45.440
should be asked so that we can
provide context or information. It's the job

293
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:48.680
of a journalist. And then also, if you know somebody and you've dealt

294
00:24:48.680 --> 00:24:52.440
with somebody, and somebody's been a
profile, you know, a person a

295
00:24:52.480 --> 00:25:00.039
profile for quite some time, you
can gather past stories and interaction and statements

296
00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:06.279
and and and try to use that
to inform what may or may not be

297
00:25:06.440 --> 00:25:11.319
happening here. And then there's just
the logic that people have because we're people

298
00:25:11.359 --> 00:25:15.839
and we go about and we have
different experiences do different things. Well,

299
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:21.079
I'm going to get into those things
that I feel are missing, and we'll

300
00:25:21.079 --> 00:25:23.680
set up the story for you as
well. Coming up here on the KCO

301
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:29.359
Day radio program on six one f
M Talk and News Talk ninety four five

302
00:25:29.640 --> 00:25:37.920
w PTI more with Casey starts.
Now. So the amount of in my

303
00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:45.680
opinion, just stupid associated with this
story because immediately when I saw what happened,

304
00:25:45.759 --> 00:25:52.119
or I saw what was said to
have happened, I through my years

305
00:25:52.440 --> 00:25:59.440
of experience covering the Reverend William Barber
and what you know, remembering incidents like

306
00:25:59.680 --> 00:26:03.160
remember happened on the on the plane? There was an incident on a plane

307
00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:11.240
quite a number of years ago.
And and just you know, some of

308
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:19.640
the hyper partisan quite effective, I
might add, hyper partisan crap that has

309
00:26:19.680 --> 00:26:23.799
been seen over the years, especially
when there's been this ven year that the

310
00:26:23.839 --> 00:26:29.480
media is willing to provide that there's
no politics here. This is just somebody

311
00:26:29.519 --> 00:26:33.359
fighting the good fight, when in
reality, for years he was like the

312
00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:41.440
de facto Democratic spokesperson. It was
just crazy man. So this there's this

313
00:26:41.559 --> 00:26:48.079
scenario where the former head of the
North Carolina NAACP, the Reverend William Barber

314
00:26:48.440 --> 00:26:52.880
some some have referred to him as
soul glow of the bufface layer. Just

315
00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:57.119
you know, so everyone's following along
apparently went to go see the color Purple,

316
00:26:57.799 --> 00:27:03.039
which has been read done and was
in theaters. Okay, all right,

317
00:27:03.359 --> 00:27:07.759
goes goes to the movie theater.
And one of the things you have

318
00:27:07.839 --> 00:27:15.799
to know is that the Reverend Barber
has he has significant hip issues. You

319
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:18.160
see him why, I don't know
exactly what the what it is. But

320
00:27:19.920 --> 00:27:25.039
so when he walks, he has
canes and walkers, and and he he

321
00:27:25.200 --> 00:27:30.160
has a chair because sitting low in
a chair is problematic. And I don't

322
00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:34.359
begrudge or or or wish that upon
anybody like that's that's not my beef here

323
00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:41.319
and and literally he will have he
will have a a like an assistant with

324
00:27:41.960 --> 00:27:48.480
a special chair. And that goes
everywhere. So when he's doing a sit

325
00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:52.720
in at the Senate waiting to get
arrested but then have the charges thrown out,

326
00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:56.960
or showing up to an event or
whatever it is, the chair is

327
00:27:56.000 --> 00:28:03.480
there. Well, he went to
the theater and as as best we can

328
00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:08.519
understand, he set up in the
theater, but set up in I guess

329
00:28:08.599 --> 00:28:12.640
the handicapped area. Now you know, we're where normally you'd have people with

330
00:28:12.680 --> 00:28:18.680
wheelchairs, Uh pull in there.
And he's set up on the chair and

331
00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:27.079
at some point somebody at the within
the theater told him you can't, you

332
00:28:27.119 --> 00:28:30.240
can't, And it had to do
with him. I'm sure, putting this

333
00:28:30.359 --> 00:28:33.960
special chair there, which, by
the way, Ross, have you ever

334
00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:37.839
seen the chair? Everyone needs to
We got to start from here. Yeah,

335
00:28:40.480 --> 00:28:45.480
okay, And how would you describe
the chair? It's not some weird

336
00:28:45.519 --> 00:28:49.079
medical contraption. It is how would
you describe it? High top barstool?

337
00:28:49.119 --> 00:28:52.440
Right? Definitely? Yes, Yes, it's a it's a high so it

338
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:56.440
sits higher type of chair. It's
the same heights of the chairs that we

339
00:28:56.559 --> 00:29:02.519
use well in Ross's studio because Ross
has a high board. My studio has

340
00:29:02.519 --> 00:29:07.799
a lowboard, right, but high
top barstool. And and and I understand

341
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:11.200
right if you have problems seating real
low that's gonna be. Now, Ross,

342
00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:15.359
you've ever been to a movie theater? You're gone to a theater?

343
00:29:15.519 --> 00:29:18.079
Yeah, I've been to a movie
a few dimes? Sure. Wait all

344
00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:22.079
right, So when when you're talking
about the handicap section, where is that

345
00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:26.480
located in most theaters? I like
up front to the side. Yeah,

346
00:29:26.519 --> 00:29:30.759
And it's not even all the way
to the front necessarily, it's generally depending

347
00:29:30.759 --> 00:29:33.960
on where the walkway comes into the
theater, it's going to be on that

348
00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:37.039
same level. So you know,
when you walk into a theater, you

349
00:29:37.079 --> 00:29:40.920
walk past and obviously the seats are
to your side there and then you make

350
00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:44.359
entry in about two thirds of the
seats are available if you go up the

351
00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:48.119
hill and then down the hills the
other third and then that's that pass through

352
00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:52.680
and generally that's where they'll put the
handicaps so that because if people are in

353
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:57.160
wheelchairs, they don't have to change
altitudes, right, they just they go

354
00:29:57.279 --> 00:30:02.720
in there. And in some theaters
there's a really tall wall behind that,

355
00:30:03.359 --> 00:30:08.559
but in most theaters it's it's not
And so if you have an elevated chair

356
00:30:10.559 --> 00:30:17.240
now in the middle of the crowd, that's going to potentially cause problems.

357
00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:21.759
And I don't know the exact scenario, but like this is a fact that

358
00:30:21.920 --> 00:30:26.359
for whatever reason, nobody wanted to
discuss. Now you can see it in

359
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:29.799
the video that they that they posted. Right, there's a woman sitting behind

360
00:30:29.839 --> 00:30:34.920
them in clear there's no possible way
she could see the screen. So there's

361
00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:38.400
no out Now the times you buy
the seats before you go in a lot

362
00:30:38.440 --> 00:30:42.160
of these theaters, right, yes, yes, yes, yes, And

363
00:30:42.160 --> 00:30:47.640
and by the way, uh pro
tip in some theaters there's next to the

364
00:30:47.680 --> 00:30:51.240
handicapped area, depending on how it's
I know the one at North Hills is

365
00:30:51.319 --> 00:30:56.799
like this, and it's like there's
like there's a there's a couple of really

366
00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:00.000
good seats there. They're not the
handicap that are kind of because of how

367
00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:04.079
they had to format that. And
I remember sitting there and you're basically sitting

368
00:31:04.119 --> 00:31:07.920
like you're sitting in another row.
You just happen to be on that front

369
00:31:07.000 --> 00:31:11.079
row, so you can kick your
legs out if you want, but there's

370
00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:17.240
not the extra elevation. And so
when this employee came over, it was

371
00:31:17.279 --> 00:31:22.160
like trying to address this issue,
which, yes, if that's an issue,

372
00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:26.079
I don't know if there was discussion
like, hey, how can we

373
00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:30.960
do this so that we can accommodate
what you need? Which if they're able

374
00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:37.039
to do it, then by all
means they should do it right. And

375
00:31:37.400 --> 00:31:42.920
nobody's claiming that, but how do
we accommodate this without literally creating a scenario

376
00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:48.200
where now nobody behind you can see. And I don't know exactly how it

377
00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:52.440
played out the speed of things,
but based on my years of covering this

378
00:31:52.880 --> 00:31:56.559
and the response in the press conference, which I'm going to play a little

379
00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:01.359
love, I think the scenario,
in my opinion, may have gone like

380
00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:09.240
this rolls in with the chair,
sets the chair in this area, creating

381
00:32:09.279 --> 00:32:15.079
the visual that Ross just described.
Somebody says something to one of the employees,

382
00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:21.319
some employee who makes minimum wage or
whatever and is just trying to,

383
00:32:21.680 --> 00:32:24.359
you know, solve any problems there
may have got in and like, hey,

384
00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:31.160
this won't work, and it turned
into a confrontational scenario. And I

385
00:32:31.279 --> 00:32:35.759
have no doubt in my mind,
again, this is just my opinion that

386
00:32:35.880 --> 00:32:43.640
the escalation probably wasn't on the part
of the employee, but on the part

387
00:32:43.640 --> 00:32:45.240
of somebody who's like, do you
know who I am? I can do

388
00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:49.799
what I want. That's in my
mind, I think that's a very likely

389
00:32:49.880 --> 00:32:53.319
scenario and one that's never touched on
here. You know, how dare you

390
00:32:53.559 --> 00:33:00.599
where you want me to move?
I'm not moving Ironically, if you're gonna

391
00:33:00.599 --> 00:33:04.079
have a high top chair in that
scenario and they were to ask him to

392
00:33:04.079 --> 00:33:07.000
sit in the back, I don't
even want to know how that conversation went.

393
00:33:07.799 --> 00:33:08.680
Yeah, I was gonna say,
you know, Lincoln, my son

394
00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:13.599
is severely autistic. He's actually disabled. Yes, and uh, when we

395
00:33:13.680 --> 00:33:17.720
do risk and venture out to a
movie theater, we tend to sit in

396
00:33:17.759 --> 00:33:21.960
the back because Lincoln likes to because
of his autism. He likes to get

397
00:33:22.039 --> 00:33:24.200
up and he likes to bounce up
and down, sometimes on his toes or

398
00:33:24.640 --> 00:33:27.880
or you know, the way he
will move his arms around. When he

399
00:33:27.880 --> 00:33:30.559
gets really excited. He'll stammer.
Sometimes he'll make noises. And we don't

400
00:33:30.599 --> 00:33:34.279
want to ruin the movie for other
people, so we always sit in the

401
00:33:34.319 --> 00:33:38.880
back. Always, yes, yeah, because wants distraction, right, because

402
00:33:38.920 --> 00:33:43.119
people have paid their hard earned money
to go see a movie, you know,

403
00:33:43.279 --> 00:33:45.200
at this point on the holidays,
and it's you know, we don't

404
00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:50.519
want to run it for him?
Well why that why nobody asked any questions

405
00:33:50.519 --> 00:33:53.480
along those lines. They just immediately
ate up. He's just like and and

406
00:33:53.480 --> 00:33:55.799
and we'll get into the statements.
You're going to play the audio for you

407
00:33:55.839 --> 00:33:59.279
too. I kick things off.
I know it was a long setup,

408
00:33:59.319 --> 00:34:02.000
but you know, people, it
was Christmas, and Christmas happened in New

409
00:34:02.079 --> 00:34:07.599
Year's and everyone's distracted. But like
pushback. I want somebody who thinks I'm

410
00:34:07.639 --> 00:34:13.199
an idiot who just listens to hate
What did I say in there in that

411
00:34:13.320 --> 00:34:17.000
scenario that you think is unlikely,
because I feel like that is the likely

412
00:34:17.039 --> 00:34:22.719
scenario. Rolls in, decides this
is where I'm going to set up.

413
00:34:23.199 --> 00:34:29.800
Clearly, there is a visual line
of sight issue. Employee starts addressing it,

414
00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:36.000
and now it's now it's it's turned
into you know, the next great

415
00:34:36.039 --> 00:34:39.719
civil rights issue of North Carolina's time. It's just all absurd. You got

416
00:34:39.719 --> 00:34:43.440
a big dude sitting on a big
as chair blocking the view of everybody else,

417
00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:47.920
right right, I mean, but
you know, no, we're in

418
00:34:47.960 --> 00:34:52.559
a different place and we'll get to
audio and your phone calls on this because

419
00:34:54.960 --> 00:34:59.559
oh wait, oh yeah, just
just wait for it. Two cuts for

420
00:34:59.679 --> 00:35:02.280
you and your phone calls, plus
much more to come here on the CaCO

421
00:35:02.360 --> 00:35:15.960
Day Radio program. All right,
good morning, and happy Tuesday, everybody.

422
00:35:15.039 --> 00:35:19.639
It is our number two. Is
we make our valiant return. I

423
00:35:19.639 --> 00:35:22.719
don't know why rebelliant, I guess
because we're here, right, But you

424
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:27.320
are too, having to get back
into the swing of things. And boy

425
00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:30.519
boy, it's always always fun to
kick off the new year, and it

426
00:35:30.599 --> 00:35:34.840
is chock full of insanity. One
of the stories that played out pretty quick

427
00:35:34.840 --> 00:35:39.679
when we were into vacation, but
was this this incident of the theater in

428
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:45.039
Greenville. The Reverend William Barber is
there. I think he's with his mom,

429
00:35:45.599 --> 00:35:49.239
and they went to see The Color
Purple. Okay, all right?

430
00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:53.480
That was the reboot in is it
a reboot or rema? I honestly,

431
00:35:53.480 --> 00:35:59.280
I don't know, But anyway,
that was showing at the theater, and

432
00:35:59.599 --> 00:36:07.480
he brought his mother, and as
part of him going places because of the

433
00:36:07.920 --> 00:36:13.400
medical issues that he has, he
has a chair that is of the right

434
00:36:13.519 --> 00:36:17.199
height, and I guess stability to
provide him comfort or at least some element

435
00:36:17.239 --> 00:36:22.840
of comfort versus sitting all the way
down in a chair. And I get

436
00:36:22.840 --> 00:36:27.599
that, but I also get that
in not all handicapped sections of theaters.

437
00:36:27.639 --> 00:36:34.199
Are you going to be able to
put a high top chair and not obstruct

438
00:36:34.679 --> 00:36:38.760
other's ability to perhaps enjoy the movie? And you know, is there a

439
00:36:38.800 --> 00:36:42.800
compromise to be found? Sure,
maybe if there's not a ton of people

440
00:36:42.840 --> 00:36:47.960
in the theater and it's feasible that
maybe some folks can kind of clear out

441
00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:52.920
the area right behind him, that
might be a reasonable accommodation the theater might

442
00:36:52.960 --> 00:37:00.920
make. Or perhaps hey, since
it is an elevated chair, rather than

443
00:37:00.920 --> 00:37:02.840
setting up there, maybe it's off
to the side, although maybe they can't

444
00:37:02.840 --> 00:37:07.159
do that because of fire coats.
I don't know, but I also don't

445
00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:14.519
believe that it was a you know, a nice conversation that wasn't escalated.

446
00:37:14.679 --> 00:37:19.880
And judging from things that we've seen, including incidents that have taken place even

447
00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:23.599
on an airplane in the past,
that have been videotaped, I don't believe

448
00:37:23.639 --> 00:37:28.599
for a moment that he didn't escalate
the situation. And in the same way

449
00:37:28.639 --> 00:37:35.840
that do you know who I am
Hollywood celebrity does and that culminated in video

450
00:37:36.119 --> 00:37:39.880
and press conferences. And I mean, just just listen to and I'm gonna

451
00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:45.440
take you out. I cannot go
out, Okay, I'm gonna you and

452
00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:47.760
I'm gonna take you out, and
I'll charge you on my car. And

453
00:37:47.760 --> 00:37:52.000
that's fine if you if you want
to take me on, I do that.

454
00:37:51.920 --> 00:38:13.039
That's this is after obviously, and
you are moving, you're enjoying your

455
00:38:13.119 --> 00:38:24.280
saying if you're not a joy today
and and and look, the problem becomes

456
00:38:24.880 --> 00:38:32.760
that, yes, there are places
of public accommodation. However, if the

457
00:38:32.800 --> 00:38:38.840
business or the the private property owner
wants to trespass you, they can for

458
00:38:38.960 --> 00:38:44.760
a wide number of reasons, one
of which is not following directions or being

459
00:38:44.800 --> 00:38:47.840
agreeable to what it is they're offering. And and and if he doesn't feel

460
00:38:47.920 --> 00:38:53.000
that it was a reasonable accommodation,
he's more than welcome after the fact to

461
00:38:53.119 --> 00:38:58.679
sue the theater if he wants.
But you can't just go hey, i'm

462
00:38:58.679 --> 00:39:01.920
not moving. I know that that
works when you're in the legislative building because

463
00:39:02.480 --> 00:39:07.880
inevitably there won't be consequences. But
it wasn't over. It wasn't over.

464
00:39:08.039 --> 00:39:13.400
Following all of that, statements were
issued, press conferences were held. Here

465
00:39:13.679 --> 00:39:22.159
is the Reverend Barbary. I want
more. I'm in the White House with

466
00:39:22.199 --> 00:39:25.719
this chair. They've called an officer
of the law the A. M Theater

467
00:39:27.039 --> 00:39:30.760
in Greenville, North Carolina. They
would not make amends. They're simple to

468
00:39:30.840 --> 00:39:34.239
do the right thing. But we'll
deal with it. They brought this off.

469
00:39:34.440 --> 00:39:37.679
What's your name? Ain't trying off
the limit. I want to know

470
00:39:37.719 --> 00:39:47.320
your name. No problem. I
was, I was in the I said

471
00:39:47.360 --> 00:39:52.400
all the time, right, and
and and again. It's the thing is

472
00:39:52.440 --> 00:39:55.559
not the chair. It's the positioning
of the chair. And by the way,

473
00:39:55.599 --> 00:40:00.119
I think the officer handled it fine. And other some people are like,

474
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:05.880
he's attempting to trespass somebody, which
is something that officers do on the

475
00:40:05.920 --> 00:40:09.320
regular and Frankly, it's not even
something that generally they're having to make a

476
00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:16.880
judgment call over right the property owner. Once an individual trespassed and it's not

477
00:40:17.039 --> 00:40:21.960
for some illegal reason, as best
the officer can perceive, So they're gonna

478
00:40:22.239 --> 00:40:25.440
trespass and there they'll let the courts
work it out. That's what this is.

479
00:40:27.679 --> 00:40:34.760
That's what this normally is. And
again, I don't know exactly how

480
00:40:34.800 --> 00:40:40.280
the scenario played out, but I
feel like some reporters didn't leave the opportunity

481
00:40:40.320 --> 00:40:45.880
open that maybe this thing was escalated
when it could have been mitigated due to

482
00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:52.800
ego, which is something that's been
seen in the past. Let's see.

483
00:40:52.000 --> 00:40:54.800
Barbara went out to say, think
about all the people and your family,

484
00:40:54.840 --> 00:40:59.440
your jobs, your churches, your
community who are different, but just like

485
00:40:59.559 --> 00:41:01.519
you, were created in the image
of God. This is about plain and

486
00:41:01.559 --> 00:41:13.159
simple humanity. You can be humane
in attempting to accommodate everybody. Barbara called

487
00:41:13.199 --> 00:41:17.199
for more awareness, education, and
policy changes. The theater did issue a

488
00:41:17.199 --> 00:41:22.000
statement here we go, I amc
welcomes guests with disabilities. We have a

489
00:41:22.079 --> 00:41:27.039
number of accommodations in place at theaters
and our teams work hard to accommodate guests

490
00:41:27.280 --> 00:41:30.960
who have needs that fall outside the
normal course of business. Encourage guests who

491
00:41:30.960 --> 00:41:35.440
require special seating to speak with management
and advance. That's the other thing.

492
00:41:36.360 --> 00:41:40.360
And I know it would suck,
but I would think that if you haul

493
00:41:40.400 --> 00:41:46.480
a chair everywhere, you would also
develop a pattern where you may converse with

494
00:41:46.599 --> 00:41:52.039
individuals, because it's not something you
see every day, right, somebody hauling

495
00:41:52.639 --> 00:41:58.079
a high top barstool into a theater, Like, I'm surprised the staff wasn't

496
00:41:58.480 --> 00:42:00.639
at the at the where they got
the tickets, Like, why do you

497
00:42:00.679 --> 00:42:05.440
have a stool? But who knows? Maybe they were busy, but yeah,

498
00:42:05.480 --> 00:42:07.559
that's where we are. So let's
get into your phone calls. Donna,

499
00:42:07.599 --> 00:42:10.639
you're a first, Thanks for hanging
on. What's up? Good morning,

500
00:42:10.679 --> 00:42:15.840
Casey, welcome back. You were
missed. Yeah, as much as

501
00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:20.719
I hate to blow up your ego, you were missed. So my opinion

502
00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:23.119
is, initially I felt sorry for
him. I thought, what he means,

503
00:42:23.159 --> 00:42:27.159
he didn't let him in, he's
just able, And then I saw

504
00:42:27.239 --> 00:42:31.199
the chair, okay, and all
I could think of was fire hazard.

505
00:42:32.199 --> 00:42:37.199
So what I think is we have
an entitled an entitlement problem in this country,

506
00:42:37.519 --> 00:42:42.320
and it's being fostered by liberal judges, and that's why you have criminals

507
00:42:42.360 --> 00:42:46.159
going and stealing beer, just walking
out with stuff. We have liberal politicians

508
00:42:46.239 --> 00:42:53.800
and liberal journalists who call flying a
balloon over an airport a protest when it

509
00:42:53.840 --> 00:42:59.880
should be seen as terrorism. And
these are liberals that are that are causing

510
00:43:00.159 --> 00:43:02.679
these attitudes. I I hear you. I I want to be I want

511
00:43:02.679 --> 00:43:07.239
to be clear to separate uh,
you know, shooting police and walking out

512
00:43:07.280 --> 00:43:13.039
with tons of beer versus just a
sense of entitlement, because well, be

513
00:43:13.039 --> 00:43:16.800
accommodated is not inherently illegal. It's
more how this seems to have played out

514
00:43:16.840 --> 00:43:22.920
when it probably didn't have to play
out like this. I agree, I

515
00:43:22.960 --> 00:43:27.639
agree, but I think maybe he
wanted to do it to show off his

516
00:43:27.880 --> 00:43:35.599
entitlement. Yeah, you've got to
deal with a ramam manual scenario, right

517
00:43:36.360 --> 00:43:38.880
never, you never let a crisis
go to waste. And I think that's

518
00:43:38.920 --> 00:43:44.760
part and parcel of his career,
right so you s goot these opportunities,

519
00:43:44.800 --> 00:43:51.199
and you know, it's it's the
it's the you're running out the world's running

520
00:43:51.199 --> 00:43:55.039
out of its supply of overt racism
and it doesn't keep up with demand kind

521
00:43:55.039 --> 00:44:00.079
of things. So right right,
Well, I'm starting I know you can't

522
00:44:00.119 --> 00:44:02.320
say it. I'm going to say
it, and you may disagree with me.

523
00:44:02.360 --> 00:44:05.880
I don't know, but to me, it seems that there's more black

524
00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:09.440
privilege going on right now than white
privilege. And if you know, you

525
00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:13.960
I don't go into a place and
steel beer or walk into a place,

526
00:44:14.440 --> 00:44:19.639
you know, but these people are
doing it everywhere, everywhere, And why

527
00:44:19.719 --> 00:44:23.400
aren't they going to jail? And
now now a policeman is dead? Because

528
00:44:23.440 --> 00:44:28.639
they feel like they can just walk
into a place and walk out with whatever

529
00:44:28.679 --> 00:44:30.760
good do they want? And then
it's not wait a minute, now it's

530
00:44:30.760 --> 00:44:36.119
not just black people, I realize, but there does seem to be black

531
00:44:36.280 --> 00:44:43.840
entitlement going on when you have somebody
like Barber pushing that uh pushing that that

532
00:44:44.119 --> 00:44:50.360
attitude, Well you don't you don't
you know there there's plenty of Karens out

533
00:44:50.360 --> 00:44:53.000
there. And yeah, I mean
that was what you saw was a Karen

534
00:44:53.079 --> 00:44:58.719
scenario and it's just and it doesn't
have to be. But then but then

535
00:44:58.760 --> 00:45:02.639
you drag in the are they this
whole subtext with you know, are the

536
00:45:02.760 --> 00:45:06.960
are the theater people doing this because
they're looking at a scenario where They're like,

537
00:45:07.000 --> 00:45:08.719
I don't know how to deal with
this or did they do it because

538
00:45:08.760 --> 00:45:12.800
they have hate in their heart?
And I just don't believe that. I

539
00:45:12.840 --> 00:45:15.559
don't think so. I think the
theater has hate in their heart. I

540
00:45:15.639 --> 00:45:20.079
think they just want to mitigate the
problems so they can get back to not

541
00:45:20.199 --> 00:45:24.320
dealing with that. So casey,
I sit in the handicaps area. If

542
00:45:24.320 --> 00:45:29.760
I was if I was to bring
in a chair like that, I would

543
00:45:29.800 --> 00:45:34.320
also get kicked out, But I
wouldn't have the journalists surrounding me making everybody

544
00:45:34.320 --> 00:45:38.360
so bad for me. Right well
that that thing is a fire, has

545
00:45:38.400 --> 00:45:42.119
it? I saw that chair and
I was like, holy cow, man,

546
00:45:42.159 --> 00:45:45.440
if that's so in front of the
door and people start tripping on it,

547
00:45:45.639 --> 00:45:47.000
people would die. And then what
would they say? You know?

548
00:45:47.800 --> 00:45:52.039
Yeah, I think and dot I
appreciate the call this morning. I think

549
00:45:52.079 --> 00:45:58.159
that what what is the core thing
that happened here or didn't happen is I

550
00:45:58.199 --> 00:46:01.400
don't think that there was probably a
reasonable discussion that was allowed to take place.

551
00:46:01.880 --> 00:46:07.159
I think that immediately like and this
again is just my opinion, in

552
00:46:07.920 --> 00:46:13.559
all of the information, all the
scenarios I've seen, like he probably immediately

553
00:46:13.599 --> 00:46:19.719
took umbrage with it. And from
there now everyone's just dug in. And

554
00:46:19.760 --> 00:46:22.199
it was just this whole thing that
didn't have to be a thing, but

555
00:46:22.239 --> 00:46:25.679
it was a thing. But it
was a thing for the kids, so

556
00:46:28.760 --> 00:46:32.320
with them, although and they can
see it because you're elevated two feet above

557
00:46:32.360 --> 00:46:37.960
everybody else. So there is that, all right, Jamal about three minutes

558
00:46:38.119 --> 00:46:43.880
and I suspect you have a few
thoughts, so go ahead. Oh yes,

559
00:46:44.119 --> 00:46:50.079
Happy New Year, and welcome back
Ross and welcome back Chase jc O

560
00:46:50.280 --> 00:46:53.800
day week, Misschief, that big
fat lion, Jerry Carroll, Whammy,

561
00:46:53.880 --> 00:47:00.119
William Boble. He knows his twenty
twenty four and people are not happy with

562
00:47:00.199 --> 00:47:04.639
Joe Biden. And of course what
he does is he does whatever he does

563
00:47:04.679 --> 00:47:10.320
for a Democrat Party, claim racism
about everything so that he can distract black

564
00:47:10.440 --> 00:47:16.519
voters from what's going on with their
money, their their their living conditions.

565
00:47:16.719 --> 00:47:22.119
So the Democrat Party won't pay for
it. But he's in eastern North Carolina.

566
00:47:22.280 --> 00:47:25.719
He ain't like too much back there
now. He went to go see

567
00:47:25.760 --> 00:47:30.079
the movie Color Purple. Everybody knows
that chair he has it because yes,

568
00:47:30.159 --> 00:47:36.400
he does have a disability. He
discontinue his ability to push away from the

569
00:47:36.440 --> 00:47:40.039
table. Yes, he discontinued his
ability to push away from the table.

570
00:47:40.280 --> 00:47:45.280
The man's fat, okay, And
being he's fat, he got to drag

571
00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:50.000
around his jail because he can't sit
down because he can't pull his big high

572
00:47:50.039 --> 00:47:53.440
board up, and he can't continue
to stand because everything he lean on he

573
00:47:53.559 --> 00:47:59.079
breaks. So they created this jail
so he too fat to stand, too

574
00:47:59.159 --> 00:48:02.400
fat to fit. So that's what
his chair is. For. Anybody ever

575
00:48:02.480 --> 00:48:07.159
worked in a movie theater knows people
with this aphility of wheelchairs. They put

576
00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:13.320
you at the front. What he
probably tried to do will sit close to

577
00:48:13.400 --> 00:48:21.199
where people will sit and singing and
sit there because of his mom well be

578
00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:23.360
there, attempted to sit in the
handicapped section. I don't know if he

579
00:48:23.400 --> 00:48:27.440
attempted to sit elsewhere as well,
but I at least know he attempted to

580
00:48:27.480 --> 00:48:29.800
sit there. Let me, hey, Jamal, let me ask you a

581
00:48:29.920 --> 00:48:34.639
question real quick, because I think
this is another element too. Okay,

582
00:48:34.760 --> 00:48:37.920
who do you think? And again, I don't know who was in the

583
00:48:37.920 --> 00:48:43.039
theater, but it was a showing
of the movie The Color Purple. Who

584
00:48:43.079 --> 00:48:50.079
do you think likely was? He
would have been obstructing you if you had

585
00:48:50.119 --> 00:48:53.519
to guess who made someone elderly?
Well, no, no, no,

586
00:48:53.679 --> 00:48:57.199
no, some one elderly. No
no no, But what do you what

587
00:48:57.239 --> 00:49:00.280
do you think the crowd demographics that
are showing of the movie the color purple

588
00:49:01.039 --> 00:49:06.440
probably look like do you think it
was a bunch of s racks? Right,

589
00:49:07.239 --> 00:49:12.400
So you have this scenario where there's
a higher likelihood, which is why

590
00:49:12.519 --> 00:49:16.559
dragging, racing, all of this
is just so dumb, right, and

591
00:49:16.679 --> 00:49:23.280
it is. Yeah, it's it's
stupid, casey because of the simple fact

592
00:49:23.320 --> 00:49:29.639
everybody knows. William Barbara always cried. He cries. He cries about Bishop

593
00:49:29.679 --> 00:49:36.000
Brandt of word word tapping. I
think it's the word happening because he went

594
00:49:36.079 --> 00:49:38.719
to see the movie too. He
said the movie's disgusting of upper rooms.

595
00:49:38.800 --> 00:49:43.039
He's in the upper room. Bishon
Brandt said that movie's disgusting. They put

596
00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:45.519
more, They put some stuff in
there that the original movie didn't have it.

597
00:49:45.840 --> 00:49:52.440
So TD I call him ten snakes. Just like ten snakes, William

598
00:49:52.480 --> 00:49:55.800
Barber is a fake of pall and
what he wants to do since people know

599
00:49:55.840 --> 00:50:00.639
the black community is not happening.
Tabby, which was on on with your

600
00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:04.480
fine the Democratic Party and what he
does is he goes out there and just

601
00:50:04.599 --> 00:50:08.880
cries racism, racism. The movie
theater discriminated against me. Then Movie p

602
00:50:09.119 --> 00:50:14.320
theater down in Greenville. People been
going at movie theater. Page has never

603
00:50:14.360 --> 00:50:17.599
had a problem. As soon as
he take his big fat lion Jey Curle

604
00:50:17.679 --> 00:50:22.280
wearing the eye for or down there, he's a problem. Yeah he a

605
00:50:22.360 --> 00:50:27.360
fake a fall and a side storm. Yeah that's uh, this is what

606
00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:30.519
frustrates me about this. I and
Jamal I appreciate the call this morning.

607
00:50:30.559 --> 00:50:35.239
Have yourself a good one. Okay, you too? All right, there

608
00:50:35.239 --> 00:50:37.760
we go. Yeah, that's this
is what Fred. There's like, there's

609
00:50:37.800 --> 00:50:45.320
a thousand reasons why dragging you know, some sort of a big, big

610
00:50:45.440 --> 00:50:50.840
race issue into this is just wildly
unnecessary. But here we go. We're

611
00:50:50.840 --> 00:50:55.000
off to uh, we're off to
a banging start here in twenty twenty four.

612
00:50:55.039 --> 00:50:58.760
All right, we'll get more calls
on this. We got to talk

613
00:50:58.840 --> 00:51:05.280
about what happened. But at the
NC State Bowl Game two, I don't

614
00:51:05.280 --> 00:51:09.840
know what's up. And also I
don't know why, but the Frank Thomas

615
00:51:09.920 --> 00:51:14.920
story, if you didn't hear that, this this story kills me. So

616
00:51:15.280 --> 00:51:20.039
your calls that we've got some gas
station, stuff to talk about, and

617
00:51:20.719 --> 00:51:25.440
everybody's waiting. Everybody's waiting for the
Epstein list, which could come out literally

618
00:51:25.480 --> 00:51:30.039
at any moment. So all that
and more coming your way. Phone number

619
00:51:30.039 --> 00:51:35.360
eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four CaCO Day Radio program,

620
00:51:35.400 --> 00:51:42.079
Hang on the show after the show
is on the iHeartRadio app. Search Cacoday

621
00:51:42.159 --> 00:51:49.320
for the podcast on the iHeart radio
app. Oh man, all the police

622
00:51:49.320 --> 00:51:52.039
officers are hung on, all right, I'd probably need probably had to go

623
00:51:52.119 --> 00:51:55.079
police suffer, all right. So
we had a police officer. It was

624
00:51:55.119 --> 00:52:00.679
on hold ross and it was about
trespassing, and I had I said,

625
00:52:00.679 --> 00:52:04.920
look, I'm not a police officer, but I guess best I can tell.

626
00:52:05.000 --> 00:52:07.960
The process goes like this. I
called somebody, be like, hey,

627
00:52:08.039 --> 00:52:12.760
I have somebody won't leave the property. I want to have them removed.

628
00:52:13.039 --> 00:52:16.840
Police officers will show up, they'll
trespass them, which generally they'll you

629
00:52:16.840 --> 00:52:21.599
know, it's a little piece of
paperwork there, I get this person's name

630
00:52:21.760 --> 00:52:27.000
here here by trespassed. And if
you're back here here's the scenario, and

631
00:52:28.480 --> 00:52:31.519
go about your business and leave.
And that's how a trespass works. The

632
00:52:31.559 --> 00:52:37.480
officer is not litigating it, right
and people will push back and go,

633
00:52:37.559 --> 00:52:40.239
yeah, but if they're having them
removed because of a protective reason, then

634
00:52:40.280 --> 00:52:45.960
that's not legal, right. But
the way in which you go about remedying

635
00:52:45.360 --> 00:52:51.960
remedying that is not on site.
It's the same thing as arguing with the

636
00:52:51.960 --> 00:52:55.400
officer at the traffic stop. Are
you going to do it in court?

637
00:52:55.559 --> 00:53:00.920
So if you're trespassed and you feel
that you can prove your trespass illegally,

638
00:53:01.719 --> 00:53:07.440
it's not about litigating it to the
officer. Your remedy is the courtroom.

639
00:53:07.199 --> 00:53:12.920
So you so you sue and if
you know, judge or jury finds that

640
00:53:12.960 --> 00:53:16.239
it was an illegal thing. The
only thing that where it gets dicey with

641
00:53:16.400 --> 00:53:22.239
officers is they can't solicit a trespass, which is you know, that's a

642
00:53:22.360 --> 00:53:25.280
that's a whole thing in and of
itself. But they can't go somewhere and

643
00:53:25.400 --> 00:53:28.639
just to like screw with somebody,
or if they want to do something,

644
00:53:28.679 --> 00:53:32.719
go in and try to solicit a
trespass where the property owner whoever's in charge,

645
00:53:32.760 --> 00:53:37.679
wasn't asking them to be removed,
but the officers are creating this scenario.

646
00:53:37.719 --> 00:53:40.199
That's where things can get dicey.
But uh, I'm assuming ross that

647
00:53:40.280 --> 00:53:44.840
the officer agreed with me. Right, that was basically the scenario. Yes,

648
00:53:45.280 --> 00:53:46.679
right, because he just he just
wants to do this and just get

649
00:53:46.679 --> 00:53:50.719
back to me. They explain this
like all the time too, because it's

650
00:53:50.760 --> 00:53:53.639
something very common you see on like
on Patrol Live or Life ped Yeah,

651
00:53:53.679 --> 00:53:58.760
it's a thing you see all the
time, like here, we're gonna do.

652
00:53:58.760 --> 00:54:00.480
We he's gonna do and we're out. Yeah. And if if you

653
00:54:00.559 --> 00:54:04.599
if, if you have a problem
with it, you know, get a

654
00:54:04.679 --> 00:54:08.760
lawyer or whatever whatever whatever the remedy
may be. But it ain't that not

655
00:54:08.880 --> 00:54:12.239
that right there? All right,
one more call real quick, Janet,

656
00:54:12.239 --> 00:54:16.440
what's up? Ok, Casey.
I was telling him the kind of brainstorm

657
00:54:16.519 --> 00:54:22.320
with Donna because all isn't exactly her
spot a couple of years ago. Then

658
00:54:22.360 --> 00:54:24.960
I thought, if that was other
than an observation, that would be really

659
00:54:25.079 --> 00:54:29.119
racist, like that would make me
seem racist. Backed up a little bit,

660
00:54:29.960 --> 00:54:32.719
and I came to say it was
more like a black brown entitlement thing.

661
00:54:34.519 --> 00:54:36.599
So backed up a little bit more, and I came to see it

662
00:54:36.639 --> 00:54:40.320
was more of a democrat entitlement thing. You gotta kind of follow the fault

663
00:54:42.280 --> 00:54:46.119
going through with it, or or
it's it is. There's obviously because now

664
00:54:46.239 --> 00:54:52.480
politics and allegations and racism and everything
are being drug in here. But in

665
00:54:52.519 --> 00:54:58.199
its purest form, it's it's a
it's an ego entitlement thing, right,

666
00:54:58.440 --> 00:55:02.760
and you you where you see like
we have we have all these great audio

667
00:55:02.840 --> 00:55:08.639
clips of like remember the woman,
the PTSD woman melting down because she was

668
00:55:08.639 --> 00:55:14.880
an elected official got pulled over,
and it's of some of the best audio

669
00:55:14.960 --> 00:55:19.960
out there. But what once you
then decide that it's not the one thing

670
00:55:20.000 --> 00:55:23.960
where it would just be a Karen
video but instead it's of great news and

671
00:55:24.360 --> 00:55:29.719
societal significance, then you better be
able to back that up. And I'm

672
00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:34.559
just not seeing that here. And
also if it wasn't, If it wasn't

673
00:55:34.599 --> 00:55:40.199
William Barber, would would this be
the discussion we're having or is this a

674
00:55:40.280 --> 00:55:45.320
discussion that was boor from his ability
to call you know, uh, either

675
00:55:45.400 --> 00:55:49.760
call his friends within the news media
or at the very least know that the

676
00:55:49.880 --> 00:55:53.239
story will make its way there and
then this whole scenario unfolds. That's why

677
00:55:53.280 --> 00:56:00.239
it's so frustrating because this this seems
such a reasonable, easy thing to deal

678
00:56:00.280 --> 00:56:05.440
with or solve that was escalated and
nobody's asking, well, how is it

679
00:56:05.559 --> 00:56:09.559
escalated? They're just right, Well, because you don't make progress to alienate

680
00:56:09.639 --> 00:56:14.679
other people's rights unless you make a
big stink like that. Ever, nonsense.

681
00:56:15.199 --> 00:56:17.039
Yeah, And I like to put
a pattern. You got to watch

682
00:56:17.079 --> 00:56:20.920
what they're doing. And it's more
of that, like you can just break

683
00:56:20.960 --> 00:56:23.320
it all the way down to like
we've got a bunch of hunter Biden's running

684
00:56:23.320 --> 00:56:27.599
around America right now thinking that it's
okay to run around doing whatever you want

685
00:56:27.639 --> 00:56:31.559
to do. Well, well,
thankfully there's not video of all of it.

686
00:56:31.639 --> 00:56:35.920
But all right, well, thank
you very much, Happy New Year

687
00:56:35.960 --> 00:56:37.599
to you, and uh we'll talk
to you soon. Janet, okay,

688
00:56:39.400 --> 00:56:42.559
all right, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah. I'm curious. You

689
00:56:42.599 --> 00:56:45.159
know, if another like say Mark
Robinson, right, lieutenant governor, he's

690
00:56:45.159 --> 00:56:49.760
a big dude, right, like
Barbarie, he's a big dude. But

691
00:56:49.920 --> 00:56:53.000
say he were to roll up to
that theater with his giant ass recliner and

692
00:56:53.039 --> 00:56:57.000
park in front of everybody where there's
not supposed to I'm going to make my

693
00:56:57.039 --> 00:57:00.599
own seat and sit here behind his
tiny patchuser. I wonder how the media

694
00:57:00.599 --> 00:57:05.920
would would treat that. I think
the scenario would be that he was there,

695
00:57:06.000 --> 00:57:08.679
attempting to keep people from being able
to see the powerful message of the

696
00:57:08.679 --> 00:57:14.280
movie because it's you know, it's
got a little he's trying to pan the

697
00:57:14.320 --> 00:57:19.559
movie. Yeah, oh yeah,
absolutely. Man. That's which which again

698
00:57:20.880 --> 00:57:25.480
that that would be absurdly escalating the
scenario, right, because in that scenario,

699
00:57:25.519 --> 00:57:29.840
I'd be like, wait, why
does why does Mark Robinson think he

700
00:57:29.920 --> 00:57:32.039
just dragged his own chair in there? What the hell is that? But

701
00:57:32.159 --> 00:57:37.679
no, you would then escalate it
to something it's probably not anyway, but

702
00:57:37.719 --> 00:57:39.280
I mean Mark Robinson, he's been
going to the gym. He probably like,

703
00:57:39.320 --> 00:57:42.920
you know, like, why did
this guy bring his bowflex into the

704
00:57:42.920 --> 00:57:45.920
movie theater? You know, it's
it's in appropriate. It's bring a bow

705
00:57:45.920 --> 00:57:47.800
flex? Are there a lot of
bow flexes at the gym? Used to

706
00:57:47.840 --> 00:57:57.280
one so excited. I remember those
those things were everywhere back in the day.

707
00:57:57.280 --> 00:58:00.360
I always thought that the bendy metal
and like that's gonna snap and murder

708
00:58:00.480 --> 00:58:05.360
somebody. But apparently it didn't.
All right, he want some wear craziness.

709
00:58:05.360 --> 00:58:07.360
I saw this story. I haven't
even got to the parrot story.

710
00:58:07.440 --> 00:58:12.239
Oh just just wait for it.
Just bounce it all around. Because we

711
00:58:12.320 --> 00:58:15.239
got all this stuff today. I
thought this was interesting. Wait, hold

712
00:58:15.280 --> 00:58:22.039
on, so I didn't know this
was a thing. So apparently near Nashville

713
00:58:23.360 --> 00:58:29.920
there was a gas station that was
owned by a quote literal Nazi. And

714
00:58:29.960 --> 00:58:35.119
this is not people embellishing. This
is a self identified dude, I'm a

715
00:58:35.239 --> 00:58:40.079
Nazi and in fact at the gas
station. Which the reason this is a

716
00:58:40.119 --> 00:58:45.840
story is apparently none of the oil
companies want to, you know, be

717
00:58:45.920 --> 00:58:50.679
associated with this, and eventually the
owner of the station had to sell.

718
00:58:51.639 --> 00:58:58.239
But according to officials, the quote
actual Nazi not only ran a convenience store

719
00:58:58.280 --> 00:59:04.679
gas station, but also ran a
Nazi MMA fight club out of it.

720
00:59:04.840 --> 00:59:12.239
So it's a gas station with a
Nazi fight club that takes place on the

721
00:59:12.280 --> 00:59:15.800
premises as well as you know,
people just wanted to come in and get

722
00:59:15.840 --> 00:59:21.760
fruit, roll ups or gas or
whatever. But after Shell decided to disassociate

723
00:59:21.800 --> 00:59:25.360
itself from the store, there's been
a whole bunch of issues and now it's

724
00:59:25.400 --> 00:59:30.960
been sold. All right. My
question, Ross, you're driving the family,

725
00:59:30.000 --> 00:59:34.440
Okay, you're doing you know,
you're making the road trip. You're

726
00:59:34.440 --> 00:59:38.239
going down some lonely road. You
look down either maybe your cardings, you're

727
00:59:38.320 --> 00:59:42.639
running out of fuel, and so
you're like Oh my gosh, got to

728
00:59:42.679 --> 00:59:45.079
do something. Don't want to get
murdered on the highway or whatever. Let's

729
00:59:45.119 --> 00:59:47.800
find a convenience store and you go
to the bottom of the ramp and on

730
00:59:47.840 --> 00:59:53.800
your left you have the Nazi Fight
Club gas stop, and on your right

731
00:59:54.239 --> 01:00:00.920
you have the Obama where you're fueling
a I'm like, well at this point,

732
01:00:00.960 --> 01:00:05.199
I'm like, well, this is
where I die. So I did.

733
01:00:05.519 --> 01:00:08.119
So. You posted a picture of
a gas station and it's literally called

734
01:00:08.199 --> 01:00:13.079
the Obama. It's from Patrol Live. Yeah, it's it's a famous thing

735
01:00:13.079 --> 01:00:15.599
if you watch on Patrol Live in
Richland County, South Carolina. Yes,

736
01:00:15.679 --> 01:00:21.039
it's a it's a gas station called
the Obama and it has the whole tribute

737
01:00:21.159 --> 01:00:27.880
to it's his name on it.
It has his like the led screen of

738
01:00:27.920 --> 01:00:30.840
his portrait on it, like his
presidential portrait. And it is in the

739
01:00:31.000 --> 01:00:35.920
worst part of town in Columbua.
It is so bad. We were driving

740
01:00:35.960 --> 01:00:38.639
home and we you know, we
love on Patrol Live, and Mark he

741
01:00:38.639 --> 01:00:42.760
gives, oh my god, we're
five minutes away from the Obama. We're

742
01:00:42.800 --> 01:00:45.280
like, oh, we have to
stop. Yeah, five minutes. It's

743
01:00:45.360 --> 01:00:46.800
right off the exit. So we
go off and I'm like I'm gonna get

744
01:00:46.679 --> 01:00:51.079
it in the morning. The morning, okay, Like I'm gonna get out,

745
01:00:51.119 --> 01:00:53.000
I'm gonna take a picture of it. I'm going like a goofy pose

746
01:00:53.119 --> 01:00:58.880
like I'm at the Obama. It's
gonna be awesome posting one of the offices.

747
01:00:59.440 --> 01:01:01.360
Danny Brown, he's our favorite guy
in the show, so we're hoping

748
01:01:01.360 --> 01:01:04.440
we get pulled over by him maybe, like what do you do in this

749
01:01:04.480 --> 01:01:07.000
part of town? Son, Yeah, apparently it's on vacation whatever, bad

750
01:01:07.000 --> 01:01:09.760
work ethic, don't know. So
we're like, we're gonna go, and

751
01:01:09.800 --> 01:01:13.000
we start rolling up to it,
and we knew it wasn't a bad part

752
01:01:13.039 --> 01:01:15.440
of town, like we're very familiar
with because it's eight in the morning.

753
01:01:15.519 --> 01:01:17.280
This stuff happens on the show all
the time. It is notorious in the

754
01:01:17.320 --> 01:01:21.880
show for crime happening. It is
not a good area. It's it's like

755
01:01:21.960 --> 01:01:25.760
Durham on steroids, right. So
we're rolling up and when we start to

756
01:01:25.800 --> 01:01:28.960
approach it, we're like, oh
my god, we are in a really

757
01:01:29.000 --> 01:01:30.920
bad part of town, like well, and Marky is like, you are

758
01:01:30.960 --> 01:01:35.559
not getting out of the car,
You're not getting out of there. And

759
01:01:35.599 --> 01:01:38.639
we get close to it and we
realize it's eight am and it is surrounded

760
01:01:39.440 --> 01:01:45.920
by crackheads and not like there's a
difference. Listen, there's a difference between

761
01:01:45.960 --> 01:01:50.360
like friendly crackheads and ones that look
like they could possibly be like you know,

762
01:01:50.400 --> 01:01:52.519
they're gonna shoot you. We're like, remember that meme of the dude

763
01:01:52.559 --> 01:01:55.400
You're gonna get raped? Yeah,
no, no, I said that.

764
01:01:55.519 --> 01:02:00.360
I'm like, if I get out
of this car and pose, they're gonna

765
01:02:00.400 --> 01:02:01.880
be like, oh my god,
look at my new white boyfriend. And

766
01:02:02.079 --> 01:02:07.360
I am not. I'm not dying. We are almost home. So there

767
01:02:07.440 --> 01:02:10.679
was the picture. There was a
red light. I slow rolled through the

768
01:02:10.719 --> 01:02:14.559
red light and we are getting stared
at. Dude. We're like like,

769
01:02:14.599 --> 01:02:16.360
because we're in our brand new Mazda, we're getting stared at. We're like,

770
01:02:16.400 --> 01:02:21.320
we're gonna get carjacked. And Marky
is like doing the thing where like

771
01:02:21.360 --> 01:02:22.920
she's taking a picture, but she's
made it's like a covert, like you

772
01:02:22.960 --> 01:02:25.719
can't tell she's actually taking a picture. She's just looking at your phone but

773
01:02:25.760 --> 01:02:29.920
holding it too straight. Yeah,
she takes it from the side and as

774
01:02:30.079 --> 01:02:32.800
he's taking the picture, they start
to approach the car. We just boom

775
01:02:32.800 --> 01:02:37.639
out of there. Would you rather
deal with two am crackheads or eight am.

776
01:02:37.840 --> 01:02:40.440
I don't know, dude. Like, we weren't expecting that many people

777
01:02:40.440 --> 01:02:43.719
to be there, but what we
noticed was when she took the picture,

778
01:02:43.760 --> 01:02:47.920
she zooms into the gas pump and
it says on it that you have to

779
01:02:49.039 --> 01:02:53.559
pay inside. There's no pay first, but you can't pay inside. You

780
01:02:53.599 --> 01:02:58.039
can't pay outside. You have to
go inside and pay first, because every

781
01:02:58.119 --> 01:03:02.400
day they pulled like three fight cars
read yeah completely, Yeah, it's just

782
01:03:02.440 --> 01:03:08.159
the irony that it's like Obama,
like a fossil fuel station right, full

783
01:03:08.199 --> 01:03:12.079
of crackheads like you. Then you
have to wonder if the owner doesn't like

784
01:03:12.159 --> 01:03:15.760
Obama, you know what I'm saying. Jeez, all right, I'm glad

785
01:03:15.760 --> 01:03:21.320
you made it there. So yeah, I don't know Nazi fight club or

786
01:03:21.960 --> 01:03:23.880
that. You can weigh in.
Let's get Ken Boon from the Weather Channel,

787
01:03:23.880 --> 01:03:28.519
who I'm hitting late. I apologize
for that, but Ross had a

788
01:03:28.639 --> 01:03:31.079
rather interesting road trip, sir.
How was your How was your holidays?

789
01:03:31.639 --> 01:03:35.159
It was pretty good? It was
pretty good. How about yours? You

790
01:03:35.199 --> 01:03:38.199
know what, can't complain didn't almost
get murdered by crackheads. So that's all

791
01:03:38.239 --> 01:03:43.599
you can ask for, is h
is the weather though, going to cooperate

792
01:03:43.599 --> 01:03:45.239
as we try to get back into
the scheme of things. Well, we're

793
01:03:45.239 --> 01:03:49.199
gonna have a pretty quiet week weather
wise. We do have a chance for

794
01:03:49.239 --> 01:03:52.440
a few showers that'll move through Wednesday
night, and then we do have a

795
01:03:52.440 --> 01:03:54.679
potential storm system for the upcoming weekend. They could bring us some more rain

796
01:03:55.039 --> 01:04:00.719
as we look towards Saturday Saturday night. Otherwise, not a whole lot going

797
01:04:00.760 --> 01:04:02.960
on weatherwise today tomorrow, just enjoy
the sunshine. Temperatures are going to be

798
01:04:02.960 --> 01:04:06.039
pretty much where they should be this
time of year. Heis and low fifties,

799
01:04:06.119 --> 01:04:09.599
upper twenties tonight. Again Wednesday night, there is a chance for a

800
01:04:09.599 --> 01:04:13.400
few passing showers, but it's back
to sunshine Thursday Friday to finish out the

801
01:04:13.440 --> 01:04:15.800
week. He's near fifty, a
little chillier Friday, middle of upper forties,

802
01:04:15.800 --> 01:04:18.639
and then rain in the forecast Saturday. But the second half of the

803
01:04:18.639 --> 01:04:24.199
weekend looks good with sunshine and fifty
degrees Sunday. All right, appreciate it.

804
01:04:24.239 --> 01:04:26.280
We'll talking to now Resirt. Thank
you, all right? He sounds

805
01:04:26.320 --> 01:04:30.960
good. And when we come back. Was Ross's trip through Crackheadville. The

806
01:04:31.000 --> 01:04:36.920
most interesting story that happened down in
the South or was it this dude in

807
01:04:38.000 --> 01:04:41.920
Alabama? Who? Ross, you
may have driven right by this dude.

808
01:04:42.320 --> 01:04:45.679
So just think about that from a
safety issue. We'll get into that and

809
01:04:45.039 --> 01:04:49.280
much more. Plus, we've got
Beaver News and you name it coming up

810
01:04:49.280 --> 01:04:55.039
here on the CaCO Day Radio program. Thank you. Casey is on ninety

811
01:04:55.039 --> 01:04:59.679
four or five WPTI and the Triad
and one six one FM Talk in the

812
01:04:59.760 --> 01:05:04.119
Try. Let's talk about New Year's
real quick, shall we? Good morning,

813
01:05:04.159 --> 01:05:10.239
seven fifty three KCO Day Radio program. Ross. Did you stay up?

814
01:05:10.280 --> 01:05:13.599
Did you make it till midninth?
Uh? No, we were We're

815
01:05:13.639 --> 01:05:16.159
We're asleep by like nine point thirty. Oh wow, okay because you drove

816
01:05:16.320 --> 01:05:18.199
Was it New Year's Eve? You
got back home? No? The day

817
01:05:18.239 --> 01:05:24.079
before before? Yeah? Yeah,
okay, yeah yeah yeah yeah. I

818
01:05:24.159 --> 01:05:27.840
did make it, but not much, not much after that. I was

819
01:05:29.400 --> 01:05:32.880
I was friggin tired. Man.
Did see a couple things include, oh

820
01:05:32.920 --> 01:05:36.400
we have I'm glad she survived.
Man, did you see the video that

821
01:05:36.400 --> 01:05:41.360
the one I think she's from Clinton
who won the million dollars? And Ryan

822
01:05:41.400 --> 01:05:44.760
Seacressea, Hey, you just won
a million dollars and she's just down down

823
01:05:44.800 --> 01:05:49.400
for the count man. Just sheer, shock and surprise, Pamela Bradshaw her

824
01:05:49.519 --> 01:05:54.800
name. In fact, here we
go. We got audio of what happened.

825
01:05:55.079 --> 01:06:02.960
Number one. Congratulations number one,
you're a millionaire. I mean not

826
01:06:03.079 --> 01:06:18.800
after text just breaking out. By
the way, how much does she sound

827
01:06:18.880 --> 01:06:26.039
like a certain WWE announcer, But
she's screaming, Oh my god, I'm

828
01:06:26.079 --> 01:06:30.719
just saying, you know exactly what
I'm talking about, right, Oh my

829
01:06:30.880 --> 01:06:43.239
god. Yeah, she was really
really happy. Just b cut off because

830
01:06:43.239 --> 01:06:47.679
you got to be so awkward if
you're riding seacress man, North Carolina,

831
01:06:47.800 --> 01:06:53.400
first time here in New York City
and you're walking away in the new year,

832
01:06:53.920 --> 01:07:05.920
a millionaire, the Powerball first millionaire
of the year. Can any sentences?

833
01:07:08.079 --> 01:07:12.039
I am so happy for you.
Congratulations Bully, you would have those

834
01:07:12.079 --> 01:07:19.079
at they're ready. Yeah, yeah, but hey Shavvy again not a millionaire

835
01:07:19.079 --> 01:07:24.039
because taxes, but congrats to her. And yeah, I don't care.

836
01:07:24.079 --> 01:07:27.480
Look I'll fall down on National TV
whatever if I'm still walking away with a

837
01:07:27.599 --> 01:07:30.360
check, I'm good. I go
with that. So so we had that

838
01:07:30.400 --> 01:07:34.079
going on, and again you're Ryan
Seacrest. You're trying to keep things rolling

839
01:07:34.199 --> 01:07:39.280
sometimes ross you and I've both been
in situations where you're trying to host something,

840
01:07:39.679 --> 01:07:43.039
going to live event or whatever,
and you just have to keep things

841
01:07:43.119 --> 01:07:47.039
rolling when things get crazy. So
that being said, that wasn't the most

842
01:07:47.119 --> 01:07:53.039
awkward moment of the New Year's coverage. No, no, no. They

843
01:07:53.119 --> 01:07:59.480
then decided to go live to Saint
Croix from a billionaire dem donor's house,

844
01:07:59.519 --> 01:08:05.000
which the President had been loaned,
which, by the way, I don't

845
01:08:05.000 --> 01:08:09.400
have a problem with that. You
got some super rich whatever president of the

846
01:08:09.519 --> 01:08:12.599
United States, Hey, we're gonna
loan it like they did over at Tahoe.

847
01:08:12.639 --> 01:08:18.199
But as several people pointed out,
that's basically what you're beefing with Clarence

848
01:08:18.239 --> 01:08:25.960
Thomas over and arguably to a much
greater extent. So just you know,

849
01:08:26.119 --> 01:08:30.159
keep that hypocrisy in mind. But
with that in mind, the President and

850
01:08:30.279 --> 01:08:35.399
First Lady did a quick little cut
in with Ryan. The First Lady adorned

851
01:08:35.439 --> 01:08:43.640
in her nicest bejeweled dress or whatever
that is. And let's just say,

852
01:08:43.920 --> 01:08:45.760
I don't know that he got his
rest before this. Do you look back

853
01:08:45.800 --> 01:08:51.600
and reflect on twenty twenty three,
what sort of of memories highlights stand out

854
01:08:51.840 --> 01:08:55.640
for you? Well, one of
the big highlights stands out for me is

855
01:08:55.760 --> 01:08:58.560
my dad used to have an expression, you'd say, shoey, your job

856
01:08:58.640 --> 01:09:00.920
is about a lot more than the
paycheck. I got your dignity, it's

857
01:09:00.920 --> 01:09:04.359
about respect. So many people through
the Midwest and in the center of the

858
01:09:04.399 --> 01:09:10.840
country, their factors are shipped overseas
the last couple of times out and they're

859
01:09:10.880 --> 01:09:13.760
losing hope and faith. So we
brought a lot of jobs back to the

860
01:09:13.880 --> 01:09:16.960
United States. People are the position
to be able to make a living now

861
01:09:17.399 --> 01:09:23.079
and they've created a lot of jobs. Over fourteen million, and I get

862
01:09:24.159 --> 01:09:26.880
which by the way, he was
asked what is your happiest memory, and

863
01:09:27.000 --> 01:09:30.880
he had to go there. But
also the fourteen million, which again is

864
01:09:30.920 --> 01:09:36.079
the most easily debunked, stupid pointless
number that they continue to pair it because

865
01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:41.640
every time it's under there, there's
community notes like remember this is right after

866
01:09:41.680 --> 01:09:45.439
COVID and they're counting all those jobs. But he was asked for the happiest

867
01:09:45.479 --> 01:09:49.640
moment. That's what. I just
feel good that the American people got up.

868
01:09:49.720 --> 01:09:53.640
They've been through a rough time with
pandemic, but now we're coming back.

869
01:09:54.199 --> 01:09:57.359
Yeah, okay, we're building back
better. Some would say, oh

870
01:09:57.439 --> 01:10:01.600
man and and that will that was
the most coherent portion of it. So

871
01:10:02.319 --> 01:10:10.640
a welcome that it is wells Tuesday. So there is that four day work

872
01:10:10.720 --> 01:10:15.279
week, and then a five day
and then another four day and then everyone

873
01:10:15.359 --> 01:10:17.720
freaks out because it's like, oh, you're just on vacation and I'm like,

874
01:10:17.760 --> 01:10:19.960
well, it's a company holiday.
What do you want us to do?

875
01:10:21.279 --> 01:10:28.239
That'll be what fifteenth fifteenth? Yeah, so that's how we're rolling.

876
01:10:28.279 --> 01:10:34.640
Glad to have you along back.
Everybody survived Ross didn't get murdered by crackheads

877
01:10:34.720 --> 01:10:42.399
at gas stations in South Carolina.
Dude, it sounds like probably the advice

878
01:10:42.479 --> 01:10:46.760
of your wife because he's like,
I don't want to have I don't want

879
01:10:46.760 --> 01:10:48.960
to have to like, you know, rescue the kid and get out of

880
01:10:49.000 --> 01:10:51.279
here. Yeah. Now it's like
I'm gonna get a goofy picture and she's

881
01:10:51.319 --> 01:10:54.960
like, no, you're not,
No, you're not. Stay inside.

882
01:10:54.960 --> 01:10:58.079
Man. We rolled up and I'm
like, you know what, you're right?

883
01:10:58.600 --> 01:11:01.920
Yeah? Yeah, you never know. And you wonder if some of

884
01:11:01.960 --> 01:11:05.319
the crackheads like that. It's so
like do they know that it's problem that

885
01:11:05.359 --> 01:11:09.840
they have to listen. We can't
be the only people that have driven past

886
01:11:09.880 --> 01:11:12.800
that because of it being a non
patrol live all the time. It's not

887
01:11:13.039 --> 01:11:15.640
like it wasn't like a first thing
for them. They're probably like, oh

888
01:11:15.640 --> 01:11:18.880
God, here's another you know,
idiot couple that we're gonna have to shoot

889
01:11:18.880 --> 01:11:23.600
and murder and seal their car and
chop it up at the chop shop.

890
01:11:23.640 --> 01:11:26.359
And I here we go again.
But I'm like, no, not us.

891
01:11:26.359 --> 01:11:29.560
Another day you're slow rolling through the
red light. Well, I mean

892
01:11:29.560 --> 01:11:32.760
the photo's good. Ross tweet that
you and retweeted on the show account,

893
01:11:32.840 --> 01:11:39.560
so you can pump that up if
people want to see as that's your wife's

894
01:11:39.920 --> 01:11:43.600
secret photo she took. Well she's
not taking a photo. By the way,

895
01:11:43.640 --> 01:11:46.239
anytime somebody's doing that, you can
totally tell, right, Oh,

896
01:11:46.319 --> 01:11:49.840
completely right. So I don't And
if I like, how do you then

897
01:11:49.920 --> 01:11:56.079
think you're getting away with it because
they're crackheads, I don't know. They

898
01:11:56.079 --> 01:11:59.359
seem like they seem like they've they've
staked out a pretty good spot, right,

899
01:12:00.520 --> 01:12:02.319
they got it. They got sustenance
around there, They got a steady,

900
01:12:02.680 --> 01:12:06.199
steady stream of idiot tourists. Are
you what more do you need?

901
01:12:06.279 --> 01:12:11.159
Man? So way that going on, we had all the insanity from the

902
01:12:11.199 --> 01:12:14.840
college football games. Where do I
even start? Let's start with NC State,

903
01:12:14.920 --> 01:12:19.760
shall we? The pop Tart Bowl, which got real dark, real

904
01:12:19.880 --> 01:12:30.720
quick as you had this. You
know, a giant pop Tart mascot,

905
01:12:30.960 --> 01:12:34.319
right, who had a giant toaster
which he at the beginning of the game,

906
01:12:36.119 --> 01:12:44.119
rose out of as strawberry pop tart. Pretty crazy stuff. Here we

907
01:12:44.159 --> 01:12:46.079
got audio of this. Hang on, here we go. So here is

908
01:12:46.159 --> 01:12:51.960
the pop Tart coming on to the
scene at the NC State Bowl game?

909
01:12:54.039 --> 01:12:57.239
Oh why am I not hearing audio? Hold on, all right, let

910
01:12:57.239 --> 01:13:09.039
me try it again. Here we
go. Right, A lot of pomp,

911
01:13:09.079 --> 01:13:15.279
a lot of circumstances they didn't get
the w still was it was.

912
01:13:15.479 --> 01:13:17.239
It was a lot more exciting than
a lot of games. I'll give it

913
01:13:17.279 --> 01:13:23.399
that. But the undercard the whole
time is you got this pop Tart mascot

914
01:13:23.720 --> 01:13:30.079
and he wants to be consumed.
So there's that weirdness factor. Just saw

915
01:13:30.159 --> 01:13:36.199
the edible mascot. He came out
of a toaster, a giant toaster minutes

916
01:13:36.239 --> 01:13:40.760
before kickoff? Can you really put
the frosted ones in a toaster? Though?

917
01:13:41.399 --> 01:13:44.600
Well, here's the sad part of
the story. After the game,

918
01:13:44.640 --> 01:13:48.920
he will be devoured. He will
die and he will be his own last

919
01:13:48.960 --> 01:13:56.319
meal. All right, what the
hell is going on? Dude? It's

920
01:13:56.359 --> 01:14:00.119
the greatest thing ever. It wasn't
just a one thing because like it just

921
01:14:00.359 --> 01:14:04.560
and it all emanated for Orlando,
right, which is perfect because Florida,

922
01:14:04.680 --> 01:14:09.079
right, it all emanated. But
I'm sitting there, I'm not gonna lie.

923
01:14:09.520 --> 01:14:14.560
I'm in bull mode. I might
have it was in a school night,

924
01:14:14.760 --> 01:14:16.960
the whole thing, and if buzzed
me is like, I'm sorry,

925
01:14:16.960 --> 01:14:20.239
what the hell did you just say? There's one thing to say? The

926
01:14:20.359 --> 01:14:24.880
edible mascot, But then he painted
the whole scenario about how he's gonna die,

927
01:14:25.000 --> 01:14:29.479
man, and they weren't making it
up because as the game rolled to

928
01:14:29.600 --> 01:14:36.239
a close and unfortunately Kansas Kansas State
is now the victors, now comes the

929
01:14:36.439 --> 01:14:44.840
almost oddly like as techian, I
don't even know how to human sacrifice,

930
01:14:45.159 --> 01:14:49.920
like temple of Doom stuff. As
he now sinks back into the toaster ahead

931
01:14:50.000 --> 01:14:55.119
of consumption, Welcome back to the
Pop Darts Bowl. And then this capital

932
01:14:55.199 --> 01:15:00.279
I ball mania. That edible mascot
nowhere in sight right now got everybody involved.

933
01:15:01.279 --> 01:15:05.960
He will be devoured by the winning
team, and then I guess next

934
01:15:06.039 --> 01:15:11.720
year we're going to have to find
another flavor to be the mascot. Okay,

935
01:15:11.760 --> 01:15:15.960
So then what happens is they cut
to the locker room, where the

936
01:15:15.039 --> 01:15:26.079
winning team is now presented with a
roughly similar sized pop tart with removable frosting

937
01:15:26.239 --> 01:15:30.399
under which is a strawberry filling,
which of course looks like flesh and blood,

938
01:15:30.800 --> 01:15:33.039
and they're just going to town on
this thing. And I'm like,

939
01:15:33.479 --> 01:15:39.840
this is the weirdest crap ever.
Will fast forward because the very same stadium

940
01:15:39.880 --> 01:15:43.680
in Orlando, which literally is you
know, it's not an NFL state,

941
01:15:43.760 --> 01:15:46.359
it's built for holding Bowl games.
It was Campy World stadium. I can

942
01:15:46.439 --> 01:15:51.000
even I don't even know what it
is now, but they host multiple games.

943
01:15:51.079 --> 01:15:56.039
I went to a game there a
few years ago, and so four

944
01:15:56.159 --> 01:16:01.079
days later, now you got the
Citrus Bowl. And in this case,

945
01:16:01.239 --> 01:16:05.359
it's a damn cheese it and this
cheese It's thing is it doesn't want to

946
01:16:05.399 --> 01:16:10.359
be eaten alive is the whole scenario. And it's running, but it's also

947
01:16:10.439 --> 01:16:14.279
running around annoying everyone. So it's
like, I would understand why you would.

948
01:16:14.399 --> 01:16:16.000
It's like, got a sign I'm
not edible, don't eat me.

949
01:16:16.439 --> 01:16:24.319
The whole thing was just really dark. I don't know, I do.

950
01:16:24.520 --> 01:16:27.960
We watched it live. We're watching
the Game of Louisiana my in law's living

951
01:16:28.039 --> 01:16:30.000
room, and as soon as they
showed that pop tart, We're all like,

952
01:16:30.039 --> 01:16:30.880
oh my god, look at that
thing. I love the pop tart.

953
01:16:30.920 --> 01:16:33.640
We big fans of the pop tart. Yeah. I missed the end

954
01:16:33.640 --> 01:16:36.960
though, where it went the toaster
and they ate it. But on the

955
01:16:38.199 --> 01:16:42.079
drive back home was like two days
later, I realized that the pop tart

956
01:16:42.159 --> 01:16:45.840
had become a meme on x oh, like social media, Like people are

957
01:16:45.880 --> 01:16:49.560
photoshopping the pop tart into the motorcade
at the JFK like in Dallas, and

958
01:16:50.079 --> 01:16:56.000
put it in different scenarios. And
then the cheese It, the poverty Jennabee

959
01:16:56.079 --> 01:17:00.960
pop Tart, cheese Z please get
out of here, chad Z, the

960
01:17:01.079 --> 01:17:04.720
cheese It. Who would you rather
go into battle with the pop tart or

961
01:17:04.720 --> 01:17:10.560
the cheese It? No, don't
get me wrong, I'm a I'm a

962
01:17:10.560 --> 01:17:12.760
fan of both. Don't get me
wrong. I love cheese It, but

963
01:17:12.800 --> 01:17:15.359
come on, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah no. I

964
01:17:15.520 --> 01:17:19.920
popped art for days, right,
But it's it was just the visual because

965
01:17:19.920 --> 01:17:25.760
you just have this team of you
know, dude, just tearing this thing

966
01:17:25.800 --> 01:17:29.079
apart, and the color is because
it's strawberry cheese. It. It was

967
01:17:29.159 --> 01:17:32.199
just, ah, it was such
a creepy visual, man. But then

968
01:17:32.239 --> 01:17:36.079
the fact that they basically kind of
pulled a very similar game with the cheese

969
01:17:36.159 --> 01:17:41.720
it yesterday or two day yeah,
yesterday. It was just it was just

970
01:17:41.840 --> 01:17:44.840
weird, man, but they were. But the I think it was the

971
01:17:45.000 --> 01:17:47.760
because the announcers were so into it. Now here, Look, you want

972
01:17:47.760 --> 01:17:53.439
to do this, actually do this, but do it with team mascots.

973
01:17:53.520 --> 01:17:58.880
Right, So what is what is
Kansas State's sing? So you know,

974
01:17:58.960 --> 01:18:01.159
feasibly they should have been feasting on
wolf, right, you know what I

975
01:18:01.159 --> 01:18:06.560
mean. If you want to do
this, let's do it. Let's let's

976
01:18:08.800 --> 01:18:10.960
you know what I'm saying. I
mean, some teams will have to figure

977
01:18:10.960 --> 01:18:14.359
out what the hell it is.
I'm pretty obvious. Texas Longhorns, you

978
01:18:14.399 --> 01:18:15.319
get a big steak if you beat
them. I mean, when you think

979
01:18:15.319 --> 01:18:19.760
about it, all mascots are edible. That's yes, that's the point that

980
01:18:19.800 --> 01:18:23.640
I'm making, even the weird ones
where I'm like, explain to me what

981
01:18:23.720 --> 01:18:27.039
Alabama's in is? Again? Right? It like some like stupid like am

982
01:18:27.039 --> 01:18:30.319
I I'm in a pioneer, am
I. I'm a cowboy that sucks for

983
01:18:30.399 --> 01:18:33.520
you? Better win? How's that
that's gonna you know, you should win.

984
01:18:35.119 --> 01:18:40.479
I don't know what you do with
Duke for wake Forest is gonna be

985
01:18:40.479 --> 01:18:45.960
a tragedy for the religious community,
you know, I don't know. Are

986
01:18:45.000 --> 01:18:47.439
you gonna do it? You know? Don't do stuff half asked? Is

987
01:18:47.520 --> 01:18:51.159
by point? You know? But
I'll tell you what though, yes,

988
01:18:51.239 --> 01:18:55.960
there were a lot of pop tart
beams, but nothing compared to what has

989
01:18:56.039 --> 01:19:03.720
already started to permeate the internet because
yesterday, for the first time, Disney

990
01:19:03.920 --> 01:19:12.399
no longer has licensing over Steamboat Willie
and the earliest iterations. Now, it

991
01:19:12.439 --> 01:19:15.119
doesn't hold true for later iterations of
Mickey, but if you want to go

992
01:19:15.199 --> 01:19:21.039
back to the very beginning there,
that's now in public domain. So people

993
01:19:21.079 --> 01:19:26.079
want to remember what happened with the
Winnie the Pooh like slasher flick that was

994
01:19:26.119 --> 01:19:32.319
a result of those characters going into
public domain, and immediately people were photoshopping.

995
01:19:32.960 --> 01:19:39.159
I have to assume that they're currently
shooting Steamboat Willie theme porn right now,

996
01:19:39.680 --> 01:19:43.039
right because Disney can't sue him,
and God help us if that hits

997
01:19:43.079 --> 01:19:48.159
the internet. What did you see
people were photoshopping like Steamboat Willie in like

998
01:19:48.359 --> 01:19:53.159
nine to eleven memes. It was. The Internet is so weird, man,

999
01:19:53.359 --> 01:19:58.399
especially when people have like time off
and have to figure out ways to

1000
01:19:58.439 --> 01:20:01.600
fill it. But yeah, that's
that's the nightmare. As we kick off

1001
01:20:01.600 --> 01:20:04.720
the new year, you got to
be on the lookout for the Epstein list,

1002
01:20:05.399 --> 01:20:12.239
which could drop at any time,
and people taking advantage of the now

1003
01:20:12.319 --> 01:20:15.960
public domain status of Steamboat Willie,
which, by the way, what is

1004
01:20:16.000 --> 01:20:23.399
the poor name for that movie?
I have some thoughts, none of which

1005
01:20:23.399 --> 01:20:26.800
I could probably repeat on the radio, but you know, somebody's working on

1006
01:20:26.880 --> 01:20:30.760
it. So there you go.
Got that to creep you out first thing

1007
01:20:30.800 --> 01:20:33.720
this morning. All right, Oh
wait, hold on, is somebody down

1008
01:20:33.760 --> 01:20:38.079
with Oh okay, now everyone else
was confused with pop tart as well.

1009
01:20:42.760 --> 01:20:45.439
Yeah no, that's I yeah,
absolutely, that's what we're People are like,

1010
01:20:45.479 --> 01:20:47.760
Oh, you know what they should
do is actually eat Baska. Yeah

1011
01:20:47.800 --> 01:20:51.520
no, that's uh. I think
we just mentioned that. So but maybe

1012
01:20:51.520 --> 01:20:55.000
you were typing it was on delay, sir, So I'll give you the

1013
01:20:55.000 --> 01:20:59.439
benefit of the doubt. All right, coming up, He's I. He

1014
01:20:59.520 --> 01:21:01.479
has to win the Florida man,
even if it's not Florida, although it

1015
01:21:01.520 --> 01:21:10.119
was technically in Florida, but he's
from Alabama and is right the panhandle,

1016
01:21:10.199 --> 01:21:15.319
right there where they where they meet
up. And I think he's gonna take

1017
01:21:15.319 --> 01:21:19.560
the award. So we'll get to
that coming up here. And we got

1018
01:21:19.600 --> 01:21:25.239
oh, we got Candle News and
the main Secretary of State just deciding she

1019
01:21:25.319 --> 01:21:27.760
knew whatever she wants. All that
more coming your way, k C O

1022
01:21:39.079 --> 01:21:42.880
actually somebody put a trailer already out
for a Mickey Mouse horror movie, so

1023
01:21:43.119 --> 01:21:47.319
like people have been waiting, although
they didn't call it screamboat Willie, which

1024
01:21:47.359 --> 01:21:53.119
I feel like is a big oversight. But you know, hire me as

1025
01:21:53.159 --> 01:21:55.920
a consultant. We'll help you with
these things, all right, So check

1026
01:21:55.960 --> 01:22:01.279
this out. Let's send down to
Alibama. And if we're gonna do this,

1027
01:22:01.760 --> 01:22:11.600
since technically it did creep into the
Florida Panhandle, we might as well.

1028
01:22:11.680 --> 01:22:15.800
Florida Man. Florida Man. Is
something in the water they error sand

1029
01:22:15.039 --> 01:22:18.199
that makes you do all that crazy
crap. It's like the state is one

1030
01:22:18.319 --> 01:22:26.199
be dumb ass trapped. Nowhere else
has the Florida Man. It is almost

1031
01:22:26.399 --> 01:22:31.840
like as the weird factor climbs that
you find out it haven't in Florida every

1032
01:22:32.000 --> 01:22:36.640
time. Florida Man, Florida Man. If anyone can jeer me if you

1033
01:22:36.680 --> 01:22:40.680
know you can, just mind life
be crazy. But of course, but

1034
01:22:40.880 --> 01:22:45.960
it's not as bad crap crazy as
yours. Nowhere else are you gonna find

1035
01:22:45.079 --> 01:22:48.520
him? They're so used to it, they don't find him. Hooray for

1036
01:22:48.600 --> 01:22:56.560
Florida Man. And let's say to
the tip of the Panhandle, where authorities

1037
01:22:57.920 --> 01:23:01.840
say they received some rather strange Specifically, it started with a call about a

1038
01:23:01.840 --> 01:23:08.039
man pounding on the front door of
a home and a vehicle that was sitting

1039
01:23:08.079 --> 01:23:12.199
nearby, trying to get into the
vehicle, but then some other stuff.

1040
01:23:12.920 --> 01:23:15.479
As deputies began to search for a
car that matched the description of the one

1041
01:23:15.479 --> 01:23:21.359
that was in the area, they
also received a call of a dude with

1042
01:23:21.439 --> 01:23:28.319
a parrot on his shoulder buzzing down
the road, driving erradically. Eventually they

1043
01:23:28.359 --> 01:23:34.279
were able to locate a now parked
thirty eight year old Timothy Bowers. Do

1044
01:23:34.439 --> 01:23:39.239
they say when officers arrived was sitting
inside of the vehicle with a blank look

1045
01:23:39.279 --> 01:23:43.479
on his face, with the parrots
still on his shoulder. Well, he

1046
01:23:43.560 --> 01:23:47.039
started talking to him, they saw
weapons. The dude was non compliant.

1047
01:23:47.079 --> 01:23:51.079
He's not really in it mentally.
They you know, obviously they think he's

1048
01:23:51.399 --> 01:23:57.840
drunk or something. And he did
the logical thing as you do when you're

1049
01:23:57.880 --> 01:24:00.359
cause playing a pirate. He just, hey, I'm just gonna fight all

1050
01:24:00.359 --> 01:24:06.199
you guys. But he you know, he brought fist to a taser party.

1051
01:24:06.760 --> 01:24:11.640
We know how this ends out.
And they tased him and put him

1052
01:24:11.640 --> 01:24:13.960
in cussing. Now, I got
a question. Do they tase him with

1053
01:24:13.960 --> 01:24:20.239
the parrot on his shoulder and thus
tase the parrot? I have? I

1054
01:24:20.279 --> 01:24:26.039
have questions on this. But turned
out he wasn't drunk, by the way.

1055
01:24:26.680 --> 01:24:30.600
He was just tripping, you know
what, on mushrooms with a parrot

1056
01:24:30.640 --> 01:24:33.800
on his shoulder, cruising down the
road. And I gotta wonder, like,

1057
01:24:34.119 --> 01:24:36.840
if you're on mushrooms, does he
think the parrot is like you know,

1058
01:24:36.880 --> 01:24:41.279
the thing with the devil and the
angel on the shoulder they used to

1059
01:24:41.319 --> 01:24:46.359
be like comedically portrayed in cartoons,
Like, does he think that's a parrot

1060
01:24:46.640 --> 01:24:50.680
or does he think it's like,
you know, son of sam My neighbor's

1061
01:24:50.720 --> 01:24:57.800
dog told me some stuff like I
have a multitude of questions. And by

1062
01:24:57.840 --> 01:25:03.359
the way, nothing in the police
report was the parrot saying anything like when

1063
01:25:03.479 --> 01:25:08.800
there wasn't there a there was a
murder case right where a parrot was literally

1064
01:25:08.920 --> 01:25:15.239
like saying what happened during it?
Repeating the whole scenario. Yeah, I

1065
01:25:15.239 --> 01:25:16.920
think we did that story back in
the day, right, and it was

1066
01:25:17.359 --> 01:25:21.039
was repeating the scenario of the the
victim pleading not to kill him and then

1067
01:25:21.039 --> 01:25:26.279
the person killing them was a whole
thing. So what is this parrot saying

1068
01:25:27.399 --> 01:25:31.760
what? Anyway, probably saying roll
tide, it's good. Well he probably

1069
01:25:31.800 --> 01:25:38.239
thought it lay Oh my god,
Nick Saban or you know bear Bryan on

1070
01:25:38.319 --> 01:25:41.720
my shoulder. Yeah, why why
do you used to assume maybe it was

1071
01:25:41.840 --> 01:25:45.319
uh, you know war eagle.
Yeah it's possible. Yeah, yeah,

1072
01:25:45.319 --> 01:25:47.199
I mean I don't even know.
Could have been an Auburn parrot. Alabama.

1073
01:25:47.199 --> 01:25:51.800
I've been Alabama parent double bummer this
morning. Not only is his his

1074
01:25:51.920 --> 01:25:59.439
guy gone because he's in jail,
but also, uh Alabama couldn't get it

1075
01:25:59.479 --> 01:26:04.600
done. That was that was a
crazy end of that game. Man.

1076
01:26:04.640 --> 01:26:10.119
I don't understand some of the decisions
made there, but oh whatever, So

1077
01:26:10.760 --> 01:26:15.119
yeah, and so he's in custody. He doesn't say again whether the parent

1078
01:26:15.560 --> 01:26:19.119
the parrot suffered during the tasing.
The parrot, who they did say,

1079
01:26:19.279 --> 01:26:24.720
was not injured. It was eventually
put in a pet carrier and taking to

1080
01:26:24.800 --> 01:26:31.079
animal control. Let's see dude's charge
with battery of law enforcement, possession of

1081
01:26:31.119 --> 01:26:39.279
controlled substance, a bunch of other
stuff. I love this line. Washington

1082
01:26:39.279 --> 01:26:45.439
County Sheriff Kevin Cruz said, we
cannot stress the importance of reporting suspicious activity

1083
01:26:45.640 --> 01:26:50.960
during the holiday season. And I
would counter with, is a man driving

1084
01:26:51.000 --> 01:26:59.520
a radically with a parrot on his
shoulder? Eyes bloodshot? Even? Is

1085
01:26:59.560 --> 01:27:03.239
that vicious in the Florida Panhandle?
Like does that stand out? And I

1086
01:27:03.319 --> 01:27:09.600
don't. I don't know the answer
to that. But any who, he

1087
01:27:09.840 --> 01:27:13.720
is, he is in custody.
Now, all right? Coming up Main

1088
01:27:13.800 --> 01:27:18.319
Secretary of State? Uh and what
happened in Tennessee at a crazy and another

1089
01:27:18.359 --> 01:27:23.920
animal story for you, plus your
calls. Cac O Day Radio Prograde ninety

1090
01:27:23.960 --> 01:27:29.680
four five PTI in the Triad and
one six one FM talked in the Triangle.

1091
01:27:30.600 --> 01:27:32.680
No I was just playing some of
the ross. So you don't even

1092
01:27:32.720 --> 01:27:35.960
know what happened, but you in
your mind because I told you the scenario,

1093
01:27:36.079 --> 01:27:40.039
now you think you know what happened
at immediately think so yeah, yeah,

1094
01:27:40.119 --> 01:27:43.760
yeah yeah. So one thing real
quick on the on the college football

1095
01:27:43.800 --> 01:27:48.720
games. If you watch the Texas
Texas Michigan Washington excuse me, Texas Washington

1096
01:27:48.760 --> 01:27:53.439
game, it was the later game. So now you're in you know,

1097
01:27:53.600 --> 01:27:57.119
now you're into the night. And
you've seen it one hundred times when you've

1098
01:27:57.119 --> 01:28:01.000
watched a sports broadcast when they're you
know, filling in between innings or plays,

1099
01:28:01.319 --> 01:28:05.159
or they're coming back from commercial or
whatever, it is a lot of

1100
01:28:05.279 --> 01:28:11.439
times they'll have some ambiance shots,
right, So like think of this scenario,

1101
01:28:11.600 --> 01:28:16.079
like they're they're playing are there it's
a game in Charlotte, right,

1102
01:28:16.760 --> 01:28:20.520
Panthers game or whatever. They're coming
back and instead of just coming back to

1103
01:28:20.600 --> 01:28:24.840
the stadium, they may have some
some guy with a camera in uptown,

1104
01:28:25.000 --> 01:28:29.359
right, or somebody by the Whitewater
Rafting Center, you know, some unique

1105
01:28:29.399 --> 01:28:31.640
thing around there up by Lake Norman, and they use that as kind of

1106
01:28:31.680 --> 01:28:40.039
the ambiance background. Well, the
Bowl game was in New Orleans or Narlans

1107
01:28:40.159 --> 01:28:44.720
or however you're supposed to pronounce it, but whatever, And so the natural

1108
01:28:45.119 --> 01:28:53.119
ambiance shot is to go to the
French Quarter. The problem is, you're

1109
01:28:53.199 --> 01:28:58.000
now if you choose to run that
as a live shot rather than taping and

1110
01:28:58.119 --> 01:29:04.520
making sure you're gonna get whatever is
happening on Bourbon Street after dark at that

1111
01:29:04.760 --> 01:29:09.359
moment during a bowl game, which
is already a hit. I've been to

1112
01:29:09.640 --> 01:29:14.560
I've been to New Orleans during bowl
games, and you know, it's not

1113
01:29:14.760 --> 01:29:16.800
just near the game, it's frigging
everywhere. It's just crazy, man,

1114
01:29:17.439 --> 01:29:23.159
And so inevitably they're just they're trying
to do this ambiance shot on Bourbon Street

1115
01:29:23.279 --> 01:29:28.000
and some woman pulls a hootout right
there there? It is. How did

1116
01:29:28.039 --> 01:29:31.000
you not think that might be a
thing? How did you not for a

1117
01:29:31.079 --> 01:29:34.000
moment, go, man, if
we do this live shot, that's like

1118
01:29:34.159 --> 01:29:42.520
doing live radio in a bar setting
in an uncontrolled environment, because all takes

1119
01:29:42.680 --> 01:29:45.239
is one drunk guy to go,
you know, so and sow her in

1120
01:29:45.439 --> 01:29:49.119
the P word, which is a
thing that people screamed because it you know,

1121
01:29:49.439 --> 01:29:56.399
turned into a meme. And somebody's
having to hit the delay dump and

1122
01:29:57.000 --> 01:30:00.560
they didn't catch it. It aired
man some woman just I had to make

1123
01:30:00.600 --> 01:30:04.960
the beat exchange, and there you
go. So NBC says they're very sorry

1124
01:30:06.359 --> 01:30:12.920
over that. But also, you
know, I wonder how many people even

1125
01:30:12.960 --> 01:30:15.159
caught it, but it was the
thing that happened. So yes, your

1126
01:30:15.199 --> 01:30:18.560
prediction, Ross was correct. If
that was your prediction, somebody decided to

1127
01:30:19.600 --> 01:30:24.880
make a business transaction, and that's
where we find ourselves, all right,

1128
01:30:24.960 --> 01:30:29.079
eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four. Ross. Let me

1129
01:30:29.119 --> 01:30:33.000
ask you another question, if if
if a group of people were bullying your

1130
01:30:33.039 --> 01:30:41.800
wife, and would you intervene if
need bees made me ask you to I

1131
01:30:42.000 --> 01:30:45.079
have in the past. Yes,
yeah, you would step up. And

1132
01:30:45.680 --> 01:30:48.399
you know, who knows what that
may what may happen there, but you

1133
01:30:48.439 --> 01:30:53.039
would, you know, and maybe
it turns physical, that wouldn't intimidate you.

1134
01:30:53.159 --> 01:30:56.000
You would do because this is your
wife. You wouldn't want people doing

1135
01:30:56.039 --> 01:31:00.039
that, right, so you would, you know, come to her defense.

1136
01:31:00.520 --> 01:31:03.319
I was at a station event.
There was a there was a guy

1137
01:31:03.800 --> 01:31:09.319
who poured a beer over his girlfriend's
head and like then threw like took another

1138
01:31:09.399 --> 01:31:12.640
cup and like threw it at Marky's
head. Oh no, And I backed

1139
01:31:12.680 --> 01:31:15.880
that dude into the corner so fast, and I scared a living hell out

1140
01:31:15.880 --> 01:31:17.520
of him. Right, I'm like, one thing, you don't you don't

1141
01:31:17.600 --> 01:31:19.920
do that. I can let a
lot of stuff slide, but you are

1142
01:31:20.000 --> 01:31:24.520
not going to disrespect her, like
you know, absolutely my wife. And

1143
01:31:24.600 --> 01:31:29.600
then he stuck his head in a
deep fryer. Right, I'm sorry.

1144
01:31:29.680 --> 01:31:31.800
What when you put him in the
corner, you push him in the corner

1145
01:31:31.800 --> 01:31:34.000
because that's where the deep frier was. You could stick his head in,

1146
01:31:34.039 --> 01:31:36.359
the right. I did not.
It was at a mudcat's game. I

1147
01:31:36.359 --> 01:31:40.319
don't know if do you not love
your wife? I love her to death.

1148
01:31:40.680 --> 01:31:44.239
Yeah. The mudcats they got deep
fried stuff over there. Hole,

1149
01:31:44.319 --> 01:31:47.439
Oh yeah they do. Yeah,
so you want to see that? I

1150
01:31:47.560 --> 01:31:54.720
only asked was a high point?
Pastor? Was? What? What?

1151
01:31:56.840 --> 01:31:59.560
Wait? You saw what God did
to Sodom and Gomora? Right? Right?

1152
01:31:59.760 --> 01:32:04.279
So right? He did? You
know, hot hot stuffs. It's

1153
01:32:04.359 --> 01:32:08.239
in the Bible. Look it up. A North Carolina high point. North

1154
01:32:08.279 --> 01:32:15.000
Carolina pastor was arrested after allegedly assaulting
and attempting to push his wife's coworker's head

1155
01:32:15.560 --> 01:32:20.000
into a McDonald's French fry deep friar
went like watchman Rorschach in the prison like

1156
01:32:20.279 --> 01:32:24.920
yeah, oh yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, you're not I'm not

1157
01:32:25.039 --> 01:32:28.279
in here with you, You're in
here with me. I don't know if

1158
01:32:28.279 --> 01:32:30.520
he said that. It's out of
the report. Here. According to police,

1159
01:32:30.680 --> 01:32:34.520
a woman was training to be a
manager at the McDonald's on South Mains.

1160
01:32:34.560 --> 01:32:38.720
I know it was South Main Street
in I think I've been to this

1161
01:32:38.840 --> 01:32:44.880
once, not far where the new
station location is h So anyway, she's

1162
01:32:44.920 --> 01:32:50.760
trained to be a manager. When
her employees started disrespecting her, so she

1163
01:32:50.960 --> 01:32:56.319
called her husband, fifty seven year
old Dwayne Wadon, who was one letter

1164
01:32:56.439 --> 01:33:02.399
off in a slight spelling deviation from
basketball immortality, so she called him to

1165
01:33:02.439 --> 01:33:08.319
help with the situation. Witnesses say
waden arrived, walked into the McDonald's,

1166
01:33:08.680 --> 01:33:13.359
then around the counter and quote put
hands on one of the victim's necks,

1167
01:33:14.560 --> 01:33:19.680
and after grabbing the neck, allegedly
attempted to push the victim's head towards one

1168
01:33:19.720 --> 01:33:25.920
of the restaurant deep friars. Wayden
also accused of punching the victim several times.

1169
01:33:26.520 --> 01:33:30.720
Police alleged he did not stop striking
the victim until multiple employees had to

1170
01:33:30.760 --> 01:33:38.239
pull him off, and the sea
injuries contusion, scratches, variety of things.

1171
01:33:38.319 --> 01:33:41.680
Thankfully did not get the guy's head
or if it was guy or gal

1172
01:33:42.039 --> 01:33:46.119
the quote victim's head into the deep
friar. The victim did have to go

1173
01:33:46.199 --> 01:33:50.720
to the hospital. And there's surveillance
footage of all of it because it's McDonald's

1174
01:33:51.359 --> 01:34:00.199
and was posted a thousand dollars.
Bond Waden says he is a semi truck

1175
01:34:00.319 --> 01:34:05.960
drivers slash pastor at the Elevated Life
International Ministry. It's not familiar with that.

1176
01:34:06.880 --> 01:34:14.359
So anyway, like I get it, but you know, there's moderation

1177
01:34:14.560 --> 01:34:16.479
and also I don't what do they
mean by bullying just not listening to her.

1178
01:34:16.520 --> 01:34:21.960
I don't know that you you jump
in at that point, but you

1179
01:34:23.039 --> 01:34:26.239
know there's also this inherent thing where
you're like, you can't do that to

1180
01:34:26.359 --> 01:34:30.399
my wife, but you gotta balance
it out, like you can't Kaiser,

1181
01:34:30.520 --> 01:34:35.840
so's everything? Do you know what? I mean? Hey gotta go all

1182
01:34:35.920 --> 01:34:40.920
right? So what And frankly,
again, if it's just if it's disputes

1183
01:34:40.960 --> 01:34:44.399
between employees, I jumping in there. I don't know that that's going to

1184
01:34:44.439 --> 01:34:47.279
be a positive thing. Although it
is now a crazy news story and we

1185
01:34:47.439 --> 01:34:51.079
got that so I don't see a
statement for McDonald's or anything. You probably

1186
01:34:51.079 --> 01:34:55.279
won't weigh into it, all right, eight eight eight nine three four seven

1187
01:34:55.319 --> 01:34:58.319
eight seven four. So yes,
you know, if if, if,

1188
01:34:58.520 --> 01:35:01.560
if it happens time come and you
need to jump to the defense of a

1189
01:35:01.640 --> 01:35:06.239
family member. I think people will
understand that as long as it's somewhat in

1190
01:35:06.399 --> 01:35:11.319
the realm of whatever the offense was. And I like your story, Ross,

1191
01:35:11.359 --> 01:35:14.640
I think that that was wholly appropriate. Right, go over and let

1192
01:35:14.720 --> 01:35:17.600
this dude know that this is not
that's not going to happen again now when

1193
01:35:17.640 --> 01:35:21.640
I'm around. But uh, you
know the deep that man of will,

1194
01:35:21.720 --> 01:35:26.640
what real will was and they burned
down all the houses a very family member

1195
01:35:26.680 --> 01:35:30.760
and kicked a jog and oh yeah, man had to do it. I

1196
01:35:30.880 --> 01:35:33.760
mean, they're not going to take
closely otherwise. So babe, didn't kill

1197
01:35:33.800 --> 01:35:36.119
your wife first though? Did you? Spoilers? By the way on the

1198
01:35:36.159 --> 01:35:41.279
Kaiser so reference. But that's a
thing, all right. Let's jump to

1199
01:35:41.560 --> 01:35:44.920
Ken Moon from the Weather Channel,
who's probably also never tried to stick a

1200
01:35:45.039 --> 01:35:48.119
person's head and a deep prior at
McDonald's. How you doing, I'm doing

1201
01:35:48.199 --> 01:35:51.319
well? No, I have not. Oh wow, this guy did allegedly.

1202
01:35:51.520 --> 01:35:57.319
So yeah, crazy times, man, so crazy weather or smooth you

1203
01:35:57.399 --> 01:36:01.279
know sailing. What's what's going?
Pretty quiet pattern through the week itself.

1204
01:36:01.600 --> 01:36:05.000
We have a chance for some rain
as we look towards Wednesday night, but

1205
01:36:05.159 --> 01:36:08.840
just a slight chance. A better
chance of rain as we get towards the

1206
01:36:08.840 --> 01:36:11.279
weekend, but I think we'll make
it through Friday without a whole lot of

1207
01:36:11.399 --> 01:36:14.640
change in our weather, just varying
amounts of clouds. Temperatures today, we're

1208
01:36:14.680 --> 01:36:16.600
going to be up around fifty,
upper twenties tonight, in and out of

1209
01:36:16.640 --> 01:36:20.520
the clouds. Tomorrow temperatures in the
low part of the fifties again. If

1210
01:36:20.520 --> 01:36:24.119
we're gonna see rain during the week, it'd be Wednesday night with the form

1211
01:36:24.199 --> 01:36:27.760
of just a few showers passing through, and then it's back to sunshine Thursday

1212
01:36:27.800 --> 01:36:30.720
and Friday to finish out the week. Fifty Thursday, middle to upper forties

1213
01:36:30.800 --> 01:36:33.720
on Friday, and then rain in
the forecast for Saturday. But the second

1214
01:36:33.760 --> 01:36:38.479
half of the weekend looks pretty good
with sunshine. Okay, I appreciate it,

1215
01:36:38.600 --> 01:36:42.560
sir. And you know he returns
tomorrow. Huh, yes, he'll

1216
01:36:42.600 --> 01:36:46.520
be back tomorrow. That's weird.
He's gone right after that interesting call that

1217
01:36:46.680 --> 01:36:50.800
was made during a certain football games. That's true. Well, I'll write

1218
01:36:50.840 --> 01:36:54.000
it down. We'll get to it
tomorrow. I appreciate it. MA man,

1219
01:36:54.079 --> 01:36:57.399
all right, okay, we go
coming up Jeff Bellinger. Also,

1220
01:36:57.479 --> 01:37:00.760
oh, this emailer makes a good
point ross the guy through uh a drink

1221
01:37:00.800 --> 01:37:06.399
on Marquee? Was it the Panthers
owner or I don't think so? Okay,

1222
01:37:06.479 --> 01:37:09.760
all right, so you did?
You did shove David Tepper to a

1223
01:37:09.840 --> 01:37:13.920
corner? Uh no, that's a
That's why I can't go to the stadium

1224
01:37:13.960 --> 01:37:16.239
anymore. Oh well, well I
thought it was funny. Can I tell

1225
01:37:16.279 --> 01:37:18.960
people what you wrote when I sent
that to you yesterday? Oh? Yeah,

1226
01:37:19.680 --> 01:37:23.319
here would you say? It's like, you're like, it's his stadium,

1227
01:37:23.359 --> 01:37:26.159
you do what he wants. I
mean, it's one of the positives

1228
01:37:26.199 --> 01:37:28.920
of owning the stadium in the tim
right, you can pour drinks and whoever

1229
01:37:28.960 --> 01:37:30.800
you want, you can kick me
out. Also, I don't again,

1230
01:37:31.079 --> 01:37:33.800
they don't know the stadium. I
mean, in all fairness, dude,

1231
01:37:33.840 --> 01:37:39.119
that's your opinion. Well it's I
mean, it's it's the law. But

1232
01:37:39.439 --> 01:37:42.039
you know, he is the renter, and I guess renter rights. So

1233
01:37:42.640 --> 01:37:45.000
but also different stadiums. So all
right, eight forty six, hang on

1234
01:37:46.560 --> 01:37:53.760
one O six one FM Talk w
pt I, two stations driving the best

1235
01:37:53.840 --> 01:38:00.239
in talk. This is Casey Oda
and Carolina's Morning News. Well we're here.

1236
01:38:00.680 --> 01:38:02.039
That's all I'll save for that.
I welcome back, and you say,

1237
01:38:02.039 --> 01:38:06.039
eight fifty two, your Bloomberg got
a Jeff Bellinger getting back into the

1238
01:38:06.119 --> 01:38:10.319
swing of things. How you doing, sir? I'm very okay, Casey.

1239
01:38:10.439 --> 01:38:13.319
How is your time off? How
are your holiday not long enough?

1240
01:38:13.399 --> 01:38:15.760
We need more. We need to
probably go through the MLK holiday and then

1241
01:38:15.800 --> 01:38:19.960
that would be okay. But here
we are, so all right well.

1242
01:38:20.000 --> 01:38:25.640
Stocks pulled back a bit at the
last session of twenty twenty three. Major

1243
01:38:25.720 --> 01:38:30.039
averages on Wall Street all posted solid
gains for the year. That I was

1244
01:38:30.159 --> 01:38:33.720
up fourteen percent for twenty twenty three, the Nasdaq up forty three percent,

1245
01:38:33.840 --> 01:38:38.960
the S and P five hundred game
twenty four percent, and ended the year

1246
01:38:39.239 --> 01:38:44.439
just shy of all time high airline
stocks among the winners in twenty twenty three,

1247
01:38:44.600 --> 01:38:48.439
the S and P super Composite Airlines
Industry Index it was nearly six and

1248
01:38:48.479 --> 01:38:54.039
a half percent. It was the
first annual game since before the pandemic.

1249
01:38:54.399 --> 01:38:58.680
Price of oil is rising this morning. There are increasing tensions in the Red

1250
01:38:58.760 --> 01:39:03.359
Sea after Iran sent a warship to
the region. Labor Department's December Employment report

1251
01:39:03.439 --> 01:39:09.000
will be out Friday morning. It
highlights the economic calendar this week. Economists

1252
01:39:09.039 --> 01:39:14.319
think about one hundred seventy thousand jobs
were created last month. New rules took

1253
01:39:14.359 --> 01:39:17.399
effect at the start of the year, reducing the number of electric vehicles eligible

1254
01:39:17.520 --> 01:39:23.680
for a seventy five hundred dollars federal
tax credit. Fuel Economy dot gov says

1255
01:39:23.720 --> 01:39:28.920
the criteria for qualifying have been narrowed. Now just thirteen models are eligible for

1256
01:39:29.079 --> 01:39:32.640
the tax break. About two dozen
models qualified last year. If you ran

1257
01:39:32.760 --> 01:39:36.520
up a lot of credit card charges
over the holidays, will you be able

1258
01:39:36.600 --> 01:39:41.439
to pay off the bill when it
arrives. Lending Tree says only about half

1259
01:39:41.520 --> 01:39:45.920
of the nation's credit card customers are
confident they can pay their December balance in

1260
01:39:45.039 --> 01:39:49.079
full. It's expensive now to carry
a balance. The average credit card interest

1261
01:39:49.159 --> 01:39:55.119
rate is twenty one percent. That's
the highest since the Federal Reserve started keeping

1262
01:39:55.239 --> 01:39:59.479
track thirty years ago. The rates
on some retail credit cards, those issued

1263
01:39:59.520 --> 01:40:04.000
by store close to thirty percent.
Bank create predicting the Federal Reserve will cut

1264
01:40:04.079 --> 01:40:08.520
interest rates this year, but the
pace of the rate cuts made and disappoint

1265
01:40:08.680 --> 01:40:13.680
some investors bank rates. Greg McBride
thinks we'll see just two rate cuts in

1266
01:40:13.760 --> 01:40:18.800
twenty twenty four because inflation will not
slow as rapidly as policymakers currently expect.

1267
01:40:19.199 --> 01:40:24.520
And Casey Wanka was the nation's number
one movie over the New Year's weekend.

1268
01:40:24.880 --> 01:40:30.039
Exhibitor Relations estimates ticket sales for the
four days Friday through Monday total nearly thirty

1269
01:40:30.079 --> 01:40:34.880
two million dollars Casey. Okay,
what'd you do? Do you travel?

1270
01:40:35.079 --> 01:40:41.000
Did you stay at home? No? It was a quiet week no quiet,

1271
01:40:41.319 --> 01:40:45.119
quiet weekend and Christmas and New Year's
but just spent the time with lady

1272
01:40:45.159 --> 01:40:48.439
friend, had a good time.
You didn't watch them to dismantle the pop

1273
01:40:48.520 --> 01:40:53.319
tart at the Bowl game? No, didn't. Didn't see that that's good

1274
01:40:53.640 --> 01:40:57.159
and didn't make it for the ball
drop you know, as party troop were

1275
01:40:57.159 --> 01:41:00.359
all the way around to stay away
from that. Okay, Oh well,

1276
01:41:00.680 --> 01:41:02.159
chap tomorrow, sir, Thank you. Okay, sounds good, Cassy,

1277
01:41:02.239 --> 01:41:08.399
take care there you go. Jeff
Ellinger, Bloomberg News, Sorry, a

1278
01:41:08.399 --> 01:41:11.880
couple other things real quick. So
we got critter news. Did you see

1279
01:41:12.239 --> 01:41:17.159
at the tennis tournament in Australia like
they had to stop it because poisonous snakes

1280
01:41:17.239 --> 01:41:21.119
on the court. If that isn't
the most Australia story, man, I

1281
01:41:21.159 --> 01:41:27.960
don't know where's it? Brisbane?
Yeah, deadly snake interrupts dominic teams Brisbane

1282
01:41:28.000 --> 01:41:32.840
International match. I just how does
that happen that you just have I mean,

1283
01:41:32.840 --> 01:41:36.319
I understand everything wants to murder you
over there, but you can't corral

1284
01:41:36.439 --> 01:41:42.359
off a tennis court for a few
minutes. And closer to home, a

1285
01:41:42.520 --> 01:41:46.680
Tennessee police department says they had a
crazy Christmas Day incident and we've already got

1286
01:41:46.720 --> 01:41:55.840
the bodycam footage. Bartlett Police Department
got a call from the hospital that there

1287
01:41:56.159 --> 01:42:04.239
was a beaver loose in the hospital. Yes, yes, a a large

1288
01:42:04.399 --> 01:42:08.960
toothy road and decided, Hey,
I'm going to go visit the hospital and

1289
01:42:09.359 --> 01:42:12.600
uh, insanity ensued. I didn't
know who to call, so I thought

1290
01:42:12.640 --> 01:42:15.479
maybe you might could help me.
She she wanted me to call animal control

1291
01:42:15.520 --> 01:42:20.840
because there's a beaver in the hobby
of the hospital. A beaver, yeah,

1292
01:42:21.079 --> 01:42:30.880
beaver wow, the hospital in the
lobby. So weird. This is

1293
01:42:30.920 --> 01:42:34.960
the tying. They can wrangle it
and get it outside. I don't know,

1294
01:42:35.079 --> 01:42:39.199
but I'll be I need to get
help. I love the term wrangle

1295
01:42:39.279 --> 01:42:42.000
too. She's like, let me
call the let me call the wayward beaver

1296
01:42:42.159 --> 01:42:45.079
wrangler, right, a guy in
the department, which is that the rookie

1297
01:42:45.159 --> 01:42:47.479
who's in charge of that. And
they showed up and it took him a

1298
01:42:47.520 --> 01:42:51.000
little while. They eventually got the
beaver into like a little cart, like

1299
01:42:51.039 --> 01:42:55.920
a janitorial cart or whatever, and
took it to a stream and you know,

1300
01:42:56.399 --> 01:42:59.560
dumped it in there. But yeah, so that police department's got a

1301
01:42:59.600 --> 01:43:03.760
wayward beaver ranking, which, by
the way, is I think they almost

1302
01:43:03.800 --> 01:43:11.520
called only fans. Hey, it's
all the thank Grantiss called there is a

1303
01:43:11.800 --> 01:43:15.880
beaver loose in the d R Bobby
and they not open the you know,

1304
01:43:16.199 --> 01:43:19.119
just open the door and just kind
of shush him out the door. I

1305
01:43:19.199 --> 01:43:24.520
don't know. It was the the
operator that called and said that. One

1306
01:43:24.560 --> 01:43:30.039
of the nurses called and told him
to call us. Okay, I'll get

1307
01:43:30.079 --> 01:43:34.279
some of my bills, take a
little bit, what do you and then

1308
01:43:34.640 --> 01:43:39.479
then the whole thing to try to
catch it. Whose job is that?

1309
01:43:39.640 --> 01:43:43.039
Man? I like the whole I
just opened the door. Shush about the

1310
01:43:43.119 --> 01:43:45.359
door. I don't know. Sounds
like he was. He was happy,

1311
01:43:45.479 --> 01:43:48.960
man, I didn't tell he wasn't. But yeah, they were able to

1312
01:43:49.800 --> 01:43:57.159
get him out unharmed and send him
on his way, and immediately the department

1313
01:43:57.239 --> 01:43:59.640
posted the video. We got that. We'll tweet it out before you at

1314
01:43:59.680 --> 01:44:02.279
Casey on the radio. Check that
out. And finally I laughed. They

1315
01:44:02.319 --> 01:44:08.840
were doing an in memoriam thing on
Fox News and they included White Sox former

1316
01:44:08.880 --> 01:44:13.279
White Sox player Frank Thomas, the
big hurt, right, and so they

1317
01:44:13.319 --> 01:44:15.600
had him on the I had him
on the list there and it's like,

1318
01:44:15.000 --> 01:44:21.119
you know, rip Frank Thomas.
The problem is he's not dead. A

1319
01:44:21.239 --> 01:44:26.760
guy who played for Pittsburgh who was
born in nineteen twenty nine, also named

1320
01:44:26.800 --> 01:44:30.039
Frank Thomas, is dead. And
at first I'm like, how do you

1321
01:44:30.119 --> 01:44:31.479
make that mistake? How do you
look at that photo that they used of

1322
01:44:31.600 --> 01:44:35.880
him at a press conference in the
like the two thousands, knowing that he's

1323
01:44:35.920 --> 01:44:40.319
born in nineteen twenty nine, and
goes, that's the dude. But it

1324
01:44:40.359 --> 01:44:43.000
looks like they screwed the europe too. They just heard the name and assumed

1325
01:44:43.000 --> 01:44:46.079
nobody doubled up on the name,
and he used to. He worked for

1326
01:44:46.159 --> 01:44:48.880
Fox Sports as an analyst. Who
so, I don't know, man,

1327
01:44:50.359 --> 01:44:57.920
but yes, that Frank Thomas still
alive right there. Might have some health

1328
01:44:57.960 --> 01:45:01.159
issues from some stuff. Don't know
for sure, but a little whoopsie on

1329
01:45:01.279 --> 01:45:03.000
Foxes part all right, have a
go on.
