1
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:45.840
Us. Good morning everybody. It
is six h seven here on the case

2
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:52.320
O Day Radio program, Thursday edition. Uh, let's see phone number eight

3
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:57.240
eight eight nine three four seven eight
seven fours. We did things rolling this

4
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:03.119
morning. Um, apparently some he
won the powerball and it wasn't you unless

5
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:10.680
you are somebody who streams of e
the iHeartRadio app from the state of California

6
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:18.159
because that's where it was sold.
So UM, better luck next time.

7
00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:21.400
You know, we talked about this
yesterday because inevitably they were doing all of

8
00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:29.680
them, the stupid stories the media
likes to trot out anytime the jackpot gets

9
00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:33.040
really high or they get some dude
done there and he's you know, he's

10
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:37.599
he's a financial expert or a planning
expert, and he just wants to let

11
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:41.519
you know, if you win,
you gotta take it slow. You don't

12
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:45.799
want to go crazy. And I
think that's one horrible advice because dude's never

13
00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:49.319
a billionaire who's being interviewed, so
what does he know. And two,

14
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:57.079
you're killing the possibility for awesome stories
for me, So go crazy, absolutely

15
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:00.120
Nutso man, I want I want
there to be a I want there to

16
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:06.200
be like a Johnny Manzille style story
in the first few days, which I

17
00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:08.199
don't know if you saw the man
Zille story this week, they said,

18
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:15.759
um, one of the last purges
of his his money that he got back

19
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:20.240
in was it twenty twelve, twenty
thirteen, right, was he went on

20
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:30.319
a five million dollar bender. I
mean, I guess feasibly I could see

21
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:32.759
how you could go on a five
million dollar bender, But I feel like

22
00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:38.960
that would take some effort ross back
in the day, back in uh In,

23
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:45.719
in the the partiest of party days. Do you think you could blow

24
00:02:45.759 --> 00:02:49.800
through five million in a week out
of your mind? Nah? And then

25
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:53.400
then I did some damage that that'd
be like Brewsters Millions. They should do

26
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:57.879
like a reboot. I'm just kidding. They really shouldn't be like a reboot

27
00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:00.719
of Brewsters Millions. Instead of ending
the money, you've got to, you

28
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:06.000
know, go on some sort of
expend it on drugs or something. I

29
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:09.080
don't know. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, he went buck wol.

30
00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:12.599
I mean, that's like, that's
more than Chris Farley in his last

31
00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:15.599
days five million bucks five million over
the course of what was the time,

32
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:19.520
I gotta call it up. I
think it wasn't that long. It was

33
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:28.960
a week or something. Wow,
I mean, I bet it was fun.

34
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:30.000
Do you think. I don't know
if Hunter Biden could go on a

35
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:35.319
five million dollar week Onling Bender and
that dude likes to party. I know.

36
00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:39.560
I saw some pictures yesterday, dude
at large retailer. Look, I

37
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:44.520
I've made no bones on the show
that I find her. A lot of

38
00:03:44.520 --> 00:03:49.800
times I find her annoying, and
it's not necessarily on the political side.

39
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:53.240
I just I'm not one of these
people likes the stunts and she's a big

40
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:58.000
fan. Like when she had the
big balloon she was walking around the Capitol

41
00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:01.120
with the day of the last State
of the Union, She's like, I'm

42
00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:04.120
gonna bring it in there. I
just I think it's all so dumb all

43
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:15.240
around. However, I can't help
but be amused at, especially after all

44
00:04:15.279 --> 00:04:20.680
of the committee stunts and crap and
everything that we've witnessed over the last administration,

45
00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:28.160
watching her give everybody in the Capital
on the other side of the aisle

46
00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:32.759
a case of the vapors and just
go an apoplectic yesterday, like they're a

47
00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:36.879
bunch of grown adults who never pull
this stuff. Because she had one of

48
00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:43.000
those she had a little evidence board
with some slightly edited photos of Hunter Biden

49
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:55.240
all up on a prostitute. Right, what's this? Boston Paul is at

50
00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:58.480
five million in US dot? Why
are you volunteering to try it out?

51
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:05.000
You're sitting on a small fortune.
And if you are, I wonder where

52
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:13.560
that fortune may have come from.
If you catch him adrift? Got a

53
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:18.199
little Southie money squirreled away, do
you? Little winter Hill, little winter

54
00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:28.759
Hill cash? Yes, I believe
it was five million US to answer your

55
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:35.160
question. So any who where was
Oh? Yes, Marjorie Taylor Green yesterday.

56
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:44.000
So she's sitting in there, she
got herself a poster board, she's

57
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:46.519
got photos, and they're not like
first democrats start to go, oh,

58
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:50.040
well, that's evidence photos. Those
are photos not in public circulation. And

59
00:05:50.120 --> 00:05:56.079
I immediately recognize those photos because they're
the same ones that you see you to

60
00:05:56.160 --> 00:06:01.279
see intermittently posted to social media.
So contrary to the way it's being positioned.

61
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:04.879
Uh, And we'll get to the
hypocrisy here in a moment, she

62
00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:11.600
gets to the end of her her
time and she gives like a little content

63
00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:15.240
trigger warning. She's like, the
next part may not be suitable for all

64
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:23.480
audiences, and then proceeds to pull
this posterboard up, and Jamie Raskin loses

65
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:29.560
his damn mind of Hunter Biden from
making spects to excuse me, this is

66
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:33.800
my time making pornography. Should we
be displaying this, mister Sherman, The

67
00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:40.319
committee ladies times expired, and with
two and a half minutes over wants the

68
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:42.839
two and a half minutes, He
can have it if if he wants to

69
00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:46.439
yield some to missile Coatio Quartez when
she goes right, oh yeah, an

70
00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:51.040
ango season. Oh just just kill
me with all of it. I admittedly

71
00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:56.040
I didn't watch the whole hearing,
but obviously, um, knowing that we're

72
00:06:56.040 --> 00:06:59.360
gonna have the whistleblowers and stuff,
I went back and looked at various parts

73
00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:04.319
of it. We'll get to that. But yeah, they were. They

74
00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:09.920
were not pleased about that, the
irony, of course being and let me

75
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:12.000
just get out, let me get
the hot take out of the way,

76
00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:16.600
okay, The irony of course being
that arguably those pictures, because they didn't

77
00:07:16.600 --> 00:07:26.800
actually show any nether regions, are
less vulgar than some of the artwork that

78
00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:30.800
we've seen in some of the books
that parents are talking about not wanting their

79
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:35.240
kids to essentially be instructed in when
they're at school. So with that in

80
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:41.079
mind, all of a sudden it
turned into the same hot take on there.

81
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:44.240
You know, these are the people
that are the they claim to be

82
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:48.040
the party of family, and they
just willy nilly throw these photos up and

83
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:54.279
think of all the kids who were
watching who you know? And and one

84
00:07:54.399 --> 00:08:00.959
it leads out to two points one. She did give a warning about three

85
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:05.959
points two. Nothing was new.
They're all are readily accessible, and arguably

86
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:11.560
the more vulgar versions are readily accessible
by a simple trip to the internet.

87
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:22.560
And three. Whose kids are sitting
around watching c SPAN at two thirty yesterday?

88
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:30.680
Is that is that some kids do
nowadays? Because I don't. I

89
00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:33.639
got a hard time believe in that. You're young UN's as you know,

90
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:37.720
many of them are out of school. I guess are deciding to spend their

91
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:43.720
one of their summer days sitting around
watching c SPAN. Is that something the

92
00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:48.519
kids usually do now? Is that
the hip thing? I figured they're all

93
00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:54.320
around making dumb tiktoks and stuff.
We're playing video games. But maybe I'm

94
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:56.919
wrong. Maybe all the kids that's
what they do. They got you know

95
00:08:56.919 --> 00:09:00.919
what, I'm gonna watch me some
c SPAN this afternoon. That'll be a

96
00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:05.440
fun use in my time. So
yeah, everything, everything was just dumb.

97
00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:11.320
And so that was the showy part
of it. The more the more

98
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:18.360
important part was this guy. I've
recently discovered that people are saying that I

99
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:22.000
must be more credible because I'm a
Democrat who happens to be married to a

100
00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:26.120
man. I'm no more credible than
this man sitting next to me due to

101
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:31.399
my actually due to my sexual orientation
or my political beliefs. The truth is,

102
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:37.440
my credibility comes today from my job, experience with the IRS, and

103
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:41.679
my intimate knowledge of the agency's standard
and procedures. I was raised and I've

104
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:46.480
always strived to do what is right. Although I do have my supporters,

105
00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:50.639
others have said that I am a
traitor to the Democratic Party and that I'm

106
00:09:50.679 --> 00:09:54.240
causing more division in our society.
I implore you to consider that if you

107
00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:58.440
were in my position, with the
facts as I have stated them, ask

108
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:01.399
yourself if you would be doing the
exa same thing. I hope that I

109
00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:07.960
am an example to other LGBTQ people
out there who are questioning doing the right

110
00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:11.159
thing at the potential costs themselves and
others, so that guy's name is Joseph

111
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:16.519
Ziegler, and he has for the
last thirteen years been a special agent with

112
00:10:16.559 --> 00:10:20.720
the IRS, his Criminal Investigative Division, and he, along with his immediate

113
00:10:20.759 --> 00:10:26.480
supervisor, a guy by the name
of Gary Shapeley, testified that was part

114
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:33.399
of his rather lengthy opening statement,
but basically testifying to what they say was

115
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:41.799
a deviation at the very least,
and perhaps much more than that by officials

116
00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:50.519
in the upperrational hunt of the Justice
Department in IRS too essentially bestow special treatment

117
00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:56.559
on Hunter Biden and to some extent
his father because one of these idiot democrats

118
00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:58.320
forgot the first rule. Who happens
to be a lawyer? By the way,

119
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:03.320
Congressman olman Um forgot the the you
know, the first rule of lawyering,

120
00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:09.000
don't ask a question of the answer
to and uh elicited an on the

121
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:18.519
record answer from this guy who um
that seems to tie Joe Biden to attempting

122
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:24.080
to exert influence within this case and
is now going to, as you can

123
00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:26.039
imagine, as the Republicans are going
to be a dog with a bone on

124
00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:33.000
this stuff. Now. It was, it was not a good day,

125
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:39.279
and and it like devolved into some
of the members of the committee spending their

126
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:48.200
time talking about inherent racism, does
rambling on with their time, and people

127
00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:52.120
trying to sit there and say that
these two guys are a bunch of big,

128
00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:56.480
fat liars and that they're politically motivated, and the guy's like, I'm

129
00:11:56.480 --> 00:12:03.679
a gay Democrat, Mary do another
dude? So what what it was?

130
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:09.360
It was bonkers And then of course
you had the photoboard there and so I'm

131
00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:15.879
sorry all of your kids sitting around
watching c SPAN yesterday were subjected to that.

132
00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:22.320
That must be awful for you.
But again, it's Washington, man.

133
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:26.480
Now what will come of it?
Who the heck knows? Who knows.

134
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:33.120
There's been many instances obviously where you've
seen Republicans failed to fully play their

135
00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:35.639
hand. I guess to be the
polite way to put it, but we

136
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:41.159
shall see. So that's, you
know, on the national front, that

137
00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:45.320
was the big story yesterday. However, locally, depending on where you were

138
00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:48.240
in North Carolina, it was it
was pretty hard to concentrate on. That

139
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:52.279
is, we had some pretty brutal
weather move through and this tornado in Nash

140
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:56.440
County, this e F three.
If you look at the path of destruction,

141
00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:05.000
it's just amazing that nobody was killed. I think, what are we

142
00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:09.840
at this morning? I was just
looking at they say eighty nine they suspect

143
00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:16.440
eighty nine injuries and no, excuse
me, eighty nine structures, sixteen injuries.

144
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:22.000
I mean, make sure I get
that number exactly right. Yeah,

145
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:26.639
after past sixteen people injure between Nash
and Edgecombe Counties and eighty nine structures damage

146
00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:35.559
including a big fiser facility, which
turned into a battle of the comments or

147
00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:41.039
the community notes section on Twitter because
I saw this tweet and they mentioned that

148
00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:48.360
that particular facility has a bunch of
COVID vaccine in it, and then people

149
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:52.879
got really really upset over a simple
statement like that and decided that they wanted

150
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:56.080
to point out that it has more
than COVID vaccine in it. People are

151
00:13:56.200 --> 00:14:00.159
applying, it's just COVID vaccine in
there, and it's like, you know,

152
00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:03.360
this is all so dumb. Nobody
implied that that was all that was

153
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:07.559
in there. But basically it's a
facility that has uh, you know,

154
00:14:07.720 --> 00:14:15.399
IV and or injection related medicines,
so yes, vaccines and a variety of

155
00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:18.240
other things. I'm not sure the
totality of what was in there, but

156
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:22.039
the pictures are crazy where that went
through. And then of course everyone started

157
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:28.480
to insert all their own Act of
God jokes once they figured out nobody was

158
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:33.399
killed there and um, you know
karma this, and you know, really

159
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:39.240
what you would expect. So uh
yeah, it was a it was a

160
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:41.519
crazy day. Yes, I'm just
glad your kids were all safe sitting at

161
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:48.480
home watching c SPAN out of the
weather. So good news there. Uh.

162
00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:50.799
Ross, you're in this business.
When's the last time you turn c

163
00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:54.039
SPAN on at your house? Oh? Man, I can't, I can't

164
00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:58.720
remember that. Really, you don't
sit around with the fam watching the c

165
00:14:58.919 --> 00:15:05.159
SPAN every time a decade? Yeah, I mean occasionally, that's right,

166
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:09.080
Like if there's some big speech and
it's not on the networks, I might

167
00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:13.720
go check that out, or if
it's a House or Senate hearing. Although

168
00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:16.960
the networks they didn't seem to want
any part of the uh the hearings yesterday

169
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:20.320
very much, so a lot of
people kind of forced to go to the

170
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.279
c SPAN, which is so weird
because they made all that time for you

171
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:28.720
know, everything else. All right, six twenty two hang on one oh

172
00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:33.200
six one f M Talk and nine
four five w PTI two stations driving the

173
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:41.279
best in talk. This is Casey
O Day and Carolina's Morning News. All

174
00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:43.120
right, good morning six twenty seven. See then, and then this is

175
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:52.000
a prime example of what I witnessed
yesterday. Um all right, here we

176
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:58.039
go. It's a prime example.
But I witnessed yesterday. Um so people

177
00:15:58.080 --> 00:16:02.039
were posting obviously about the Marjorie Taylor
Green with the photos and all that,

178
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:08.080
and then either elected officials or just
people responding on social media would be like,

179
00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:12.519
you know, the cud the congresswoman
broke the law and needs to be

180
00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:17.679
held accountable. What a disgrace.
Now you can think it's disgraceful and all

181
00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:22.159
of that that she decided to pull
those pull those out. I don't know

182
00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:26.919
that anyone who's excited that she did
it was also unaware of those photos.

183
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:30.120
That being said, every person I've
seen then go oh, which law did

184
00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:34.679
she break? It has no answer
for that. Or there's this kind of

185
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:40.159
roundabout made up thing about secret evidence, even though everyone knows that that evidence

186
00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:45.200
isn't secret. So but we'll continue
to slog through all of it. Coming

187
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.159
up. Hang on, This is
one oh six one FM Talk in the

188
00:16:48.200 --> 00:17:00.360
Triangle and News Talk n WPTI in
the triad oh Man. Yeah, all

189
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:04.640
right, welcome back six thirty five. So I just love the Twitter.

190
00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:11.680
Dude. You know full well what
Democrat chained to do is you know,

191
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:15.079
they need to get a poster board
with aka Trump photos. You don't like

192
00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:25.039
that, I'm sorry. Are there
photos of Avonka Trump um and hookers?

193
00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:30.720
Is that a thing that exists?
Ross? Would you? Would you?

194
00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:33.880
Would you? Did you get that
a quick look? Sure? Let me

195
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:42.799
check, No, I don't.
I mean there's probably some creepy dudes ai

196
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:49.519
creations or cutting paste. We're just
because the internet's the Internet and there's a

197
00:17:49.559 --> 00:17:53.400
lot of freaks out there, and
you know, Ivanka Trump's a pretty good

198
00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:57.519
looking woman. So I'm sure some
perv just to you know, because that's

199
00:17:57.559 --> 00:18:04.519
like the thing on the internet.
Now. I'm sure somewhere that exists.

200
00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:11.319
But I also don't think that,
um, I don't think. I don't

201
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:15.359
think anyone would think they're real.
So I don't. I don't know what

202
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:18.160
this person's referencing. I'll tell you
where. It was really crazy yesterday?

203
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:26.440
Did you see the fat Elon must
get fact checked yesterday over over a tweet,

204
00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:30.839
a tweet that he sent out and
then his sister confirmed, which I

205
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:40.319
thought it was pretty funny. All
right, So Elon Musk, some guy

206
00:18:40.880 --> 00:18:44.200
so so, some guy tweeted out, I don't even know what the reference

207
00:18:44.359 --> 00:18:52.920
was. The average person breaks wind
seventeen times a day, and Elon Musk,

208
00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:56.359
is as he's known to do,
will randomly just he'll just he'll pop

209
00:18:56.440 --> 00:19:02.200
in and and add a comment,
and he this is what he wrote.

210
00:19:02.200 --> 00:19:07.279
He wrote, I can fart hard
enough to inflate a car tire. All

211
00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:11.880
right, before I get into the
rest of it. Does anyone honestly think

212
00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:21.920
that Elon Musk seriously believes that he
can pass gas enough to inflate, you

213
00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:26.480
know, a thirty PSI standard road
tire. Are we talking like with Elon

214
00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:30.319
Musk with like a Tony Stark type
device attached between him and the tire or

215
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:37.440
just no whatever, No, it
can't be real. I mean he really

216
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:45.839
tweeted it, but so yeah,
So some humorless void of a human being

217
00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:48.880
decided that they needed to fact check. Was it was it Neil de grasse

218
00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:53.359
Tyson, It was not. It
was it was not. It was not

219
00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:57.240
Neil de Gray. It was funny
because actually the first response is from Tosca

220
00:19:57.319 --> 00:20:00.799
Muscus, I don't know if that's
how I pronounce name is sister, and

221
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:03.839
Jesus wrote, I can't confirm,
and maybe that's what set him off.

222
00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:15.319
So yes, here we go.
So a lot of people, um,

223
00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:18.359
a lot of people were just like, dah, you guys are just you

224
00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:21.079
know, you're just a horrible,
horrible people and it's just you know,

225
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:26.960
it's just some joke. But then
it got serious as somebody attached a fact

226
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:37.680
check in the form of a community
note with a with their their research,

227
00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:45.480
the average human intestines would rupture at
four psi. Therefore, Elon is clearly

228
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:53.039
overstating his abilities. He had again, so they decided that somebody needed,

229
00:20:53.480 --> 00:21:02.000
somebody needed to dispel this lie that
Elon must put out on the Twitter yesterday

230
00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:06.720
claiming that he could inflate a standard
card tire just because he ate some chili

231
00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:14.319
that day, because if that was
true, he would explode first. So

232
00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:17.640
which is yeah, I guess is
good information. And by the way,

233
00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:19.680
if somebody just put that up at
a humorous manner'd be one thing. But

234
00:21:19.720 --> 00:21:27.839
this person is serious. This individual's
one hundred percent serious. He just wants

235
00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:30.759
you to know that of all the
things Elon Musk can do, this is

236
00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:38.480
not, and it's more along the
lines of his lying, bragging nature.

237
00:21:41.240 --> 00:21:47.000
So this is where we are.
I'm a little concerned by the sheer volume

238
00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:48.920
of people if you look at the
comments, who were convinced that they could

239
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:53.720
do it. So you know,
there may be some horrific discoveries today,

240
00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:03.200
Like like that dude, the one
victim from in the movie seven, I

241
00:22:03.240 --> 00:22:07.480
guess I don't know. Didn't that
wasn't that the deal? Well, they

242
00:22:07.480 --> 00:22:11.039
put him in a closed room and
then they killed him with his own gas,

243
00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:15.079
right, I haven't seen the movie
seven in a while. I don't

244
00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:18.440
remember that part. I remember there
was a guy that like they made him

245
00:22:18.440 --> 00:22:22.920
eat himself to death, which was
cluttony, right, So maybe there was

246
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:25.920
some gas involved. Maybe, Yeah, maybe there was that guy too.

247
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:29.000
I just remember there being a scene
where they're talking about how they had sealed

248
00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:32.480
the air in there or something.
So maybe it was that dude, the

249
00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:41.279
combination of things. Look, let's
be honest, because and I'm not gonna

250
00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:45.799
deep dive this discussion. Obviously,
Elon Musk is joking about that. However,

251
00:22:48.039 --> 00:22:52.279
some people are gassier than others.
How many of you have ever ran

252
00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:59.480
yourself out of a room right,
Okay, those are the kinds of folks.

253
00:22:59.519 --> 00:23:03.640
I guess the fact checkers were concerned
might be sitting there with a with

254
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:07.480
a funnel tape to the end of
a hose attached to a car tire today

255
00:23:08.279 --> 00:23:11.799
and eight you don't. I didn't
want anything horrible to happen to him,

256
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:17.319
But what a just a bunch of
humorless babies. Man. I thought it

257
00:23:17.400 --> 00:23:19.839
was funny as hell. But you
know, I'm obviously very childish sometimes.

258
00:23:19.839 --> 00:23:29.559
So what device were you referring to? Hey the way, No, I'm

259
00:23:29.559 --> 00:23:32.680
not Elon Musk and I'm not Tony
Stark. I'm saying they could probably invent

260
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:38.640
something so you feel that starts somewhere
in that suit could build essentially the ability

261
00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:42.240
to capture the gases, compress him
and then use him at a higher psi

262
00:23:42.359 --> 00:23:47.079
than the h could be flying around
the space like Mark Watney at the end

263
00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:53.119
of the Martian. So where he
where? Watney literally says, I'm iron

264
00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:56.400
man, correct us a call back
to what you're alleging. Now, Okay,

265
00:23:57.720 --> 00:24:03.680
yeah, probably, I mean he
did go to space. Hell,

266
00:24:03.759 --> 00:24:08.720
he went to went through a wormhole, So I mean it's perfectly feasible,

267
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:14.200
all right? Eight eight eight nine, three, four, seven, eight

268
00:24:14.279 --> 00:24:19.039
seventy four. I love American man. Speaking of inventions, you come up

269
00:24:19.079 --> 00:24:30.640
with a bright idea and overnight,
overnight, you can find yourself elevated to

270
00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:37.880
the upper echelon of wealth and fame. You know. Um, look at

271
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:45.119
Jeff bezos Man. The guy's got
a follow yacht, but to follow his

272
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:52.759
regular yacht that's longer than a football
field or three excuse me, three football

273
00:24:52.799 --> 00:25:02.039
fields. Right, And that dude
was just some broke dude in Seattle selling

274
00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:06.799
books on a crappy website, right, and he was able to parlay that.

275
00:25:07.400 --> 00:25:15.359
Or people who've come up with with
inventions and technology that have fundamentally changed

276
00:25:15.559 --> 00:25:26.119
society, like this guy, Lawrence
Harge, who recently found himself entering into

277
00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:34.480
a contract with the government up in
Washington, DC. That's right, You

278
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:38.839
got to start there. And if
his invention, which is a small box

279
00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:48.640
that would be installed in the parking
enforcement vehicles for the city of DC,

280
00:25:48.880 --> 00:25:56.640
which are electric vehicles, which would
allow them to double the range of the

281
00:25:56.720 --> 00:26:00.680
electric vehicles. This is holy grail
stuff in the world of evs. By

282
00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:14.640
the way, one of the biggest
problems that people still associate with the EVS

283
00:26:14.839 --> 00:26:21.680
is the the complexity that it takes
to plan a trip that's more than just

284
00:26:21.880 --> 00:26:26.519
you know, your daily commute,
and the technology, especially when you get

285
00:26:26.519 --> 00:26:30.599
into it in many of these vehicles, especially in like the Tesla vehicles,

286
00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:36.359
they've you know, it's so computerized
and they have to have such a fundamental

287
00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:41.000
working knowledge of where all of these
charging stations are, and especially Elon's charging

288
00:26:41.039 --> 00:26:45.920
stations are considered the best because they're
the fastest. But literally if you put

289
00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:49.160
a route in, like let's say
you want to drive from Raleigh. Let's

290
00:26:49.160 --> 00:26:52.279
say I wanted to Let's say I
was in a Tesla and I want to

291
00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:57.279
drive from Raleigh to my hometown of
Wyoming, it would be really difficult to

292
00:26:57.319 --> 00:27:02.119
do that, especially as you get
out into more sparsely populated areas. Finding

293
00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:06.359
these charging stations is not easy.
In many instances. Even if you find

294
00:27:06.400 --> 00:27:10.319
them, they may not be functioning
or you won't have availability, and that

295
00:27:10.440 --> 00:27:15.680
just puts the kibosh on your travel
for that period of time. So when

296
00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:21.799
you put in a route into a
Tesla or many other evs, it then

297
00:27:21.880 --> 00:27:30.440
incorporates known locations for these charging stations
and also builds it into your estimated travel

298
00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:34.160
time So if I was to plot
that trip, or even just a trip,

299
00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:37.920
let's say I wanted to drive to
Miami. If I wanted to plot

300
00:27:37.960 --> 00:27:44.680
that trip all along I ninety five, they would show where I would have

301
00:27:44.759 --> 00:27:48.559
to stop and exactly where on the
map I'd have to go to charge.

302
00:27:48.599 --> 00:27:52.039
And then there's still the amount of
time it takes to charge, which depending

303
00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:56.519
on the charging station, can literally
be ours. And so that has that

304
00:27:56.599 --> 00:28:02.119
has been a big objection in getting
people to adopt EV If you drive a

305
00:28:02.200 --> 00:28:06.440
lot just because it's a pain in
the behind, and don't even get me

306
00:28:06.440 --> 00:28:11.519
started driving out there in Wyoming and
Montana and Utah and parts of Idaho,

307
00:28:11.559 --> 00:28:14.519
and I saw it happen in real
time on Twitch. My buddy, a

308
00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:18.200
streamer buddy was going from California back
home to Maryland and it is Tesla,

309
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:21.880
Yeah, and he had to drive
through all of the barren western Rocky Mountain

310
00:28:22.079 --> 00:28:25.880
and when he got to like Nevada
and like like Utah, they hadn't put

311
00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:27.279
it in and it was like it
was taking them all over the place,

312
00:28:27.519 --> 00:28:33.400
all over the place. So it
adds a lot of time. So they

313
00:28:33.720 --> 00:28:37.839
the ability to get more and more
battery life is is what these companies have

314
00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:42.200
to overcome. So this guy claims
to have just invented a way to double

315
00:28:42.240 --> 00:28:48.400
the range, and he's just some
random dude. All of the best minds

316
00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:56.720
in in automotive industry, in Tesla
and Ford and Nissan and you name it

317
00:28:56.599 --> 00:29:03.200
that that sell electric vehicles is what
they are working on. This is what

318
00:29:03.359 --> 00:29:07.759
will set them apart. This is
what will sell more vehicles. So the

319
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:14.079
fact that just some rando dude tinkered
a box together in his garage and was

320
00:29:14.119 --> 00:29:18.839
able to achieve this is pretty amazing. Actually, self described inventor Lawrence Harge

321
00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:22.079
claims this box he invented. You
won't provide any pictures or diagrams, but

322
00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:27.160
we found this on his website will
double the range of DC parking enforcement electric

323
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:33.000
vehicles by doing what he calls rejuvenating
the battery. All right, all right,

324
00:29:33.039 --> 00:29:34.119
well look, maybe he doesn't want
to put plans because you know,

325
00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:38.400
China will steal it in like two
seconds, probably already have. That's a

326
00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:45.599
guy just protecting his invention there,
So what's your problem? Knows he reporter

327
00:29:45.680 --> 00:29:48.279
guy that he doesn't want to put, you know, all the design on

328
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:52.160
the internet. Maybe he wants to
make money off it. Where are you

329
00:29:52.240 --> 00:29:56.000
going with this? Continue? He
took those claims of the electrical engineering labs

330
00:29:56.039 --> 00:30:00.799
at the University of Maryland, n
an electric vehicle be rejuvenated. There's not

331
00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:07.319
technologies that I'm aware of that can
really boost that same battery pack to significantly

332
00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:12.039
more than two hundred mile range.
Why not? There's a variety of limitations

333
00:30:12.880 --> 00:30:17.559
just from basic chemical theory. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

334
00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:19.799
This guy just sounds but hurt.
He didn't invent it, huh, I

335
00:30:19.839 --> 00:30:25.279
mean, obviously it must exist?
Or why house would the government of Washington

336
00:30:25.400 --> 00:30:33.440
DC enter into a contract to pay
this due to buttload of money? Right?

337
00:30:33.359 --> 00:30:36.920
You would think you would think that
they want to make sure it was

338
00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:41.839
legit. Right. DC government awarded
a contract this February with Harge's company.

339
00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:45.920
The contract says it will cost fourteen
thousand dollars per vehicle to install his modules

340
00:30:45.960 --> 00:30:51.079
and three thousand dollars per vehicle for
data monitoring. That's a total of six

341
00:30:51.279 --> 00:30:56.599
hundred eighty thousand taxpayer dollars. A
spokesperson with DC's Department of Public Works rights,

342
00:30:56.680 --> 00:31:00.640
we have been investigating new technology that
would extend their life, make us

343
00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:04.160
work more efficiently, and keep our
maintenance expenses down we learn about the ev

344
00:31:04.279 --> 00:31:10.160
Technologies modules when the company made a
presentation during the twenty twenty two Washington Auto

345
00:31:10.200 --> 00:31:12.039
Show. Oh look at that,
dude. They have a power point and

346
00:31:12.319 --> 00:31:15.880
everything, and yeah, it's it's
not a crap ton of money, but

347
00:31:17.000 --> 00:31:18.759
it's a smart business model because if
you want to sell, you want to

348
00:31:18.759 --> 00:31:22.359
have multiple streams, and one of
those nowadays, that's you that all these

349
00:31:22.359 --> 00:31:26.319
companies are. They really want our
subscription models. It's why basically, remember

350
00:31:26.319 --> 00:31:32.240
when Microsoft used to just sell word
and now you get the three sixty five,

351
00:31:32.400 --> 00:31:36.559
so every year they can pick your
pocket. Well, that's what this

352
00:31:36.640 --> 00:31:40.880
guy's got, and he's got a
power point and obviously he has a strong

353
00:31:40.960 --> 00:31:47.400
background in long history of being at
the forefront at the cutting edge of battery

354
00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:53.079
technology, which allowed him to take
that knowledge and parlay it into his own

355
00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:59.240
invention. That sounds like it's gonna
make him, you know, a billionaire

356
00:31:59.359 --> 00:32:05.279
one day. So kudos to this
guy and his scientific historical knowledge. It

357
00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:08.720
took us just a few hours to
find out more about the man DC government

358
00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:14.920
is doing business with using taxpayer dollars. Court documents show Lawrence hard To was

359
00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:20.000
sentenced to twenty six years in prison
for felony conviction in two thousand and one.

360
00:32:20.440 --> 00:32:22.559
Oh well, you know they're really
good at building stuff in prison.

361
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:27.480
You ever watch any of the lock
up shows, Like they'd build a tattoo

362
00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:31.599
gun with the you know, with
some trash they found. So okay,

363
00:32:31.680 --> 00:32:34.759
all right, what do you what
do you get now? He was found

364
00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:39.000
guilty of selling unregistered securities from his
home state of Mississippi. Hart served five

365
00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:44.319
years prison and tried to expunge or
wipe his criminal record. In twenty twenty

366
00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:50.279
one, A Mississippi judge rescinded Hargest
temporary felony expungement March twenty twenty two.

367
00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:54.920
That came after a judge's order shows
allegations surface that Harts used business investors money

368
00:32:55.039 --> 00:32:59.680
to repay the people he defrauded.
In two thousand and one, we asked

369
00:32:59.720 --> 00:33:05.880
your government whether it knew that Mississippi
court records consider Hard a convicted felon before

370
00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:09.279
it signed a contract with him.
It responded July seventh that it wasn't aware

371
00:33:09.279 --> 00:33:14.279
of that until the day we inform
them, and that it would actively investigate

372
00:33:14.319 --> 00:33:21.519
the situation. I'm beginning to think
that this reporter thinks that this guy might

373
00:33:21.559 --> 00:33:24.759
be full of crap just because the
you know, the technology doesn't exist,

374
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:31.240
isn't I mean, but it's a
fancy box. I mean it's hooked that

375
00:33:31.319 --> 00:33:36.359
up to the car. Bro it
rejuvenates the battery. I mean, if

376
00:33:36.359 --> 00:33:38.839
you hooked it up to yourself and
we're rejuven eight year Oh I just got

377
00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:43.400
community noticed. Harde declined to show
us his ev module, saying in a

378
00:33:43.480 --> 00:33:45.960
text to us, my technology speaks
for itself. He added, I would

379
00:33:45.960 --> 00:33:49.960
love to answer your questions. However, I have been placed under a strict

380
00:33:50.079 --> 00:33:55.319
non disclosure agreement. I can't discuss
anything regarding DC and yet on June nineteenth,

381
00:33:55.400 --> 00:34:00.839
Harge posted this on Facebook, answering
investors calling for more tests of his

382
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:04.160
eed battery module. No, I
did not do the tests. I have

383
00:34:04.200 --> 00:34:09.719
no intentions of doing any tests.
Life goals on Oh, I love it.

384
00:34:09.760 --> 00:34:14.239
They gave this guy buddy oh Man. All right, I'm gonna head

385
00:34:14.239 --> 00:34:17.360
to buy workshop. We'll take a
break, be right back your day smarter

386
00:34:19.000 --> 00:34:25.639
one oh six one FM Talk and
News Talk five WPTI more with case starts

387
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:34.559
now. Attery rejuvenator. Guy who
doesn't want to do any tests, show

388
00:34:34.599 --> 00:34:40.760
you any plans but somehow got himself
buck nice little contract with the DC government

389
00:34:40.840 --> 00:34:50.000
there in America. Great man oh
Man Gillamore on that and two Hours to

390
00:34:50.079 --> 00:35:37.480
Go Cacoda radio program an eight trillion
dollars. However, rather than you inventing

391
00:35:37.719 --> 00:35:43.639
a device that allows you to open
a portal and travel instantaneously from one point

392
00:35:43.639 --> 00:35:45.519
of the universe to the other,
it looks like you just tape the two

393
00:35:45.599 --> 00:35:52.440
microphones from the production studio to read
to each other. Ross claims to have

394
00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:55.639
invented portal travel during the last commercial
break. It just looks like you took

395
00:35:55.719 --> 00:36:00.280
the two microphones and wrapped a bunch
of electrical tape around him. Like,

396
00:36:00.519 --> 00:36:06.320
get will you demo it? At
least like maybe just travel from your studio

397
00:36:06.440 --> 00:36:09.320
to my studio or something. I
mean, if you want a trillion dollars,

398
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:15.760
that's what it's going to take,
just saying, because if not,

399
00:36:15.840 --> 00:36:17.400
it looks like you just take the
microphones together. What happened to your poop

400
00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:22.960
lazer? I thought you were going
to invent that. That's been what eight

401
00:36:23.039 --> 00:36:28.599
years you've been promising that. Ross
is doing some guy or tinker in this

402
00:36:28.679 --> 00:36:32.519
morning. So yeah, yeah,
yeah, So people are theorizing this this

403
00:36:32.599 --> 00:36:38.639
idiot and DC what's in the box. It's either a battery or gasoline.

404
00:36:39.039 --> 00:36:45.519
So that's just crazy man. But
hey, he got paid, so there

405
00:36:45.519 --> 00:36:58.360
you go. There is a special
rejuvenator box. Ah. Anyway, what

406
00:36:58.559 --> 00:37:00.920
is it? Oh? One of
our listeners came up with an island stabilizer

407
00:37:01.039 --> 00:37:04.960
for the US military to use on
Guam. Well that's good, sir.

408
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:19.559
Those military contracts are quite lucrative.
So did you You never got ross?

409
00:37:19.559 --> 00:37:22.800
You never go on Facebook? Do
you? Very much? I'd say occasionally

410
00:37:22.840 --> 00:37:27.159
you post. It's very rare.
I think they have it intentionally a long

411
00:37:27.199 --> 00:37:31.039
time ago. Yeah, I'm not
as spent a lot of time in there.

412
00:37:31.239 --> 00:37:36.199
I did post yesterday that I had
invented new tech to quadruple EV battery

413
00:37:36.239 --> 00:37:38.239
life. And then just US dollar
signs where all the s's are just stupid

414
00:37:38.320 --> 00:37:45.400
joke. And my first comments from
this chick who says, I'm really much

415
00:37:45.400 --> 00:37:51.079
impressed about your handsome profile and your
outstanding personalities. I also admire your good

416
00:37:51.119 --> 00:37:54.039
sense of humor on here. Sorry
sorry I don't normally write in the comments

417
00:37:54.039 --> 00:38:00.360
section, but send friend request is
okay with you? Thanks? Stay safe?

418
00:38:00.400 --> 00:38:04.239
Awesome, And then I went to
her profile it's just a bunch of

419
00:38:04.239 --> 00:38:07.760
photos of her with her chess basically
exposed. There's like three of them,

420
00:38:10.159 --> 00:38:16.599
so that sounds legit. And also
her friends and her locations are in Nigeria,

421
00:38:16.719 --> 00:38:21.360
so it sounds like she's an international
traveler who doesn't like shirts very much.

422
00:38:22.280 --> 00:38:25.159
But immediately she sees that I'm about
to be a trillionaire with this thing

423
00:38:25.280 --> 00:38:30.960
and is trying to get on that
train. So I'm wise to Lisa,

424
00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:35.760
I see what's up with that?
So yeah, women coming out the woodwork

425
00:38:35.800 --> 00:38:38.880
there, all right, So check
this out. The Moore County Board of

426
00:38:39.000 --> 00:38:49.639
Education has removed the vice chair from
that position and his committee positions after derogatory

427
00:38:49.719 --> 00:38:55.800
remarks directed towards a colleague. So
while they can't unelect the guy, they

428
00:38:55.880 --> 00:39:01.159
can basically make it so other than
anderd votes, he's got nothing to do,

429
00:39:01.679 --> 00:39:07.760
and that's what they did. This
comes after a remark he reportedly made

430
00:39:07.800 --> 00:39:12.000
in a I guess a radio interview. It doesn't even say this is this

431
00:39:12.079 --> 00:39:14.960
is such ril crap. So he
was on the radio and he said this,

432
00:39:15.039 --> 00:39:17.079
and then they just choose not to
have identify what the radio was.

433
00:39:17.960 --> 00:39:22.280
But he was doing an interview and
he's got beef with the chairman of the

434
00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:29.159
board. There a guy by the
name of Robert Levy or Levi, and

435
00:39:29.519 --> 00:39:38.519
he referred to Hensley, referred to
Levy's behavior as um, let's see here,

436
00:39:40.400 --> 00:39:45.639
it would be very clear what he
said. Hensley called Levy a Nazi

437
00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:51.519
for the way he handles the board's
agenda. So obviously there's some ideological beef

438
00:39:51.519 --> 00:39:55.920
there. But yeah, so Ril
runs On does a big story on this.

439
00:39:57.199 --> 00:40:00.079
The board votes to remove him his
vice chair. He says he's not

440
00:40:00.119 --> 00:40:07.559
going anywhere. And you know,
Levy is Jewish, I guess, so

441
00:40:07.840 --> 00:40:10.599
by referring to him as a Nazi, obviously this guy needs to go.

442
00:40:10.639 --> 00:40:15.639
And I saw the Pitchfork Brigade responding
to this yesterday, and I just think

443
00:40:15.679 --> 00:40:24.199
that there's a certain amount of irony, a certain amount of irony when this

444
00:40:24.320 --> 00:40:30.159
is the very same news outlet who
literally referred to the Lieutenant governor as a

445
00:40:30.239 --> 00:40:37.639
clan member. Right you realize you
referred to the lieutenant governor as a member

446
00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:44.000
of the KKK, the black lieutenant
governor, And yet that was fine.

447
00:40:44.880 --> 00:40:51.760
And here the outrage is that somebody
use this pejorative where they don't actually mean

448
00:40:51.800 --> 00:40:58.320
a Nazi. Obviously, he's referring
to this you know, my way or

449
00:40:58.320 --> 00:41:02.159
the highway top down, you know
exactly what's going on. He's not implying

450
00:41:02.199 --> 00:41:09.159
that the board chair is literally trying
to bring about the Fourth Reich. And

451
00:41:09.320 --> 00:41:15.519
now you're seizing upon this guy's Jewish
heritage as the you know, the speed

452
00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:22.000
bump here that should have this guy
resigning his position and just going away.

453
00:41:22.039 --> 00:41:27.320
And so you're you're wanting to highlight
that when every single tweet that I see

454
00:41:28.559 --> 00:41:31.760
or a statement that I see now, rather than just sayingly, yesterday I

455
00:41:31.760 --> 00:41:37.320
saw Roy Cooper tweeted something out and
rather than just saying that he disagrees with

456
00:41:37.400 --> 00:41:40.760
the Republican budget agenda. Now,
the Democrat thing is to put the word

457
00:41:40.880 --> 00:41:51.159
extreme in front of any time or
maga or various versions thereof extreme maga in

458
00:41:51.199 --> 00:41:57.480
front of any time they use the
word Republican. And when you use the

459
00:41:57.519 --> 00:42:05.599
word extreme, you're I don't think
that you're implying that there is extremists in

460
00:42:05.679 --> 00:42:12.199
the sense of Islamic extremists. However, it carries that same connotation if you

461
00:42:12.280 --> 00:42:15.840
want to go in a very literal
sense, Obviously you're trying to make your

462
00:42:15.840 --> 00:42:21.760
opponent look out of touch. Obviously, this guy is trying to communicate that

463
00:42:21.840 --> 00:42:27.599
he thinks the board chair to which
he is vice chair is a totalitarian in

464
00:42:27.639 --> 00:42:30.199
the way that he does things he's
not. I don't get the impression he's

465
00:42:30.239 --> 00:42:35.679
implying that the dude's an actual Nazi. But I just think it's really rich

466
00:42:35.880 --> 00:42:39.039
to sit here and see this analysis, in this outrage, in the form

467
00:42:39.079 --> 00:42:46.079
of having to do this lengthy story
when you're the very same outlet that referred

468
00:42:46.079 --> 00:42:54.159
to the black Lieutenant governor as a
clan member, because it sounds like exactly

469
00:42:54.239 --> 00:43:00.760
what you're accusing him of, and
arguably I feel like you probably meant it

470
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:09.000
more than Nazi, just because there's
you know, there's more clan members and

471
00:43:09.079 --> 00:43:21.920
there are Nazis currently in the US. I suspect oh Hensley called Levia Nazi

472
00:43:22.000 --> 00:43:24.320
for the way he handles the board
agenda quote. The name calling was something

473
00:43:24.360 --> 00:43:28.239
that was not pleasant, But I
think we need to get beyond that,

474
00:43:28.920 --> 00:43:30.880
Levi said. Now, I was
looking at some of the comments. I

475
00:43:30.880 --> 00:43:34.159
don't know anything about either of these
guys, and I don't know how Levi

476
00:43:34.360 --> 00:43:38.119
runs aboard. I don't know Hensley's
how he conducts himself. Any of the

477
00:43:38.159 --> 00:43:45.800
rest of it because don't care.
However, in seeing some of the responses

478
00:43:45.840 --> 00:43:52.719
from people within the community there who
were pointing out various beefs and TIFFs and

479
00:43:52.840 --> 00:43:59.480
back and force and statements that Levi's
made and Hensley's made previously, it sounds

480
00:43:59.519 --> 00:44:04.199
like they hate each other, and
it sounds like if it sounds like Levy

481
00:44:05.320 --> 00:44:09.960
is aggressive in the way that he
does things kind of a my way or

482
00:44:10.000 --> 00:44:14.519
the highway. Now, again,
those are anecdotes from various citizens. I

483
00:44:14.559 --> 00:44:21.320
don't know and I don't care,
but I will point out the base hypocrisy

484
00:44:21.360 --> 00:44:24.920
of somebody labeling a black lieutenant governor
the first black lieutenant governor is an actual

485
00:44:25.000 --> 00:44:34.360
clan member in having any moral high
ground to have beef with this, Hensley

486
00:44:34.400 --> 00:44:37.920
maintains his board see, but now
he is a board member with no leadership

487
00:44:37.000 --> 00:44:43.119
roles, committees and support from his
colleagues. Hensley said he has no comment

488
00:44:43.159 --> 00:44:46.320
on the board's decision, saying I'm
not going anywhere. Yeah, don't talk

489
00:44:46.360 --> 00:44:52.079
to ral Man. That's my advice
to every politician that just don't talk to

490
00:44:52.159 --> 00:44:59.599
him, don't give him any access. Let him be the echo chamber,

491
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:07.440
echo chamber of moon Battery and obviously
a bunch of big fat hypocrites there.

492
00:45:08.079 --> 00:45:15.519
All right, Speaking of things politicians
need to remember, let me offer another

493
00:45:15.559 --> 00:45:28.519
piece of advice for all of you
political folk. Don't don't post social media

494
00:45:29.239 --> 00:45:37.320
or pictures or even campaign ads with
you doing you know, domestic stuff and

495
00:45:37.840 --> 00:45:42.639
about foods. Okay, there's no
win here for you. You look stupid

496
00:45:42.679 --> 00:45:46.719
and disingenuous with your aprons that still
have the fold marks in it, standing

497
00:45:46.800 --> 00:45:53.239
next to a gas grill where it's
clear that nothing is being cooked in there,

498
00:45:53.239 --> 00:46:01.280
looking at you, cal excuse me, Jody Cunningham, orm who was

499
00:46:01.400 --> 00:46:05.920
it? Was it? Elizabeth Warren? There was a few during the last

500
00:46:07.199 --> 00:46:13.079
cycle that I that had these stupid
like, oh, I'm in my kitchen,

501
00:46:13.159 --> 00:46:15.320
you know, just cooking like a
normal person with my brand new apron,

502
00:46:15.599 --> 00:46:20.760
and it all looks dumb. All
right. Don't get into pizza to

503
00:46:20.800 --> 00:46:23.320
be just. If you're gonna make
some stupid video, some cringey video,

504
00:46:23.360 --> 00:46:30.639
at least make it about policy.
Case in point, yesterday, Mitt Romney

505
00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:36.000
wants you to know what a regular
duty is. So he's walking through the

506
00:46:36.039 --> 00:46:43.360
halls of the Senate Office building there
holding a hot dog in celebration of national

507
00:46:43.440 --> 00:46:52.119
hot dog day, which is covered
in ketchup. So you got a hot

508
00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:58.679
dog on a bun, you know, you know, your standard man's food

509
00:46:58.760 --> 00:47:05.119
on a bun, perfectly perfect swirl
pattern on the ketchup on top, which

510
00:47:08.119 --> 00:47:12.119
I don't know if you know.
There are some people that feel very strongly

511
00:47:12.119 --> 00:47:16.519
about putting ketchup on a hot dog. And now it's not okay. In

512
00:47:16.599 --> 00:47:24.239
fact, that hot dog joint that's
um that's got the hot Wieners sign in

513
00:47:24.760 --> 00:47:28.920
Raleigh. I don't know why the
name of it just escaped me. I

514
00:47:29.079 --> 00:47:31.519
go in there and challenge you to
find some ketchup. They feel very strongly

515
00:47:31.559 --> 00:47:39.559
about that. But also, does
anyone believe that Mitt Romney gets home from

516
00:47:39.559 --> 00:47:45.360
a hard day at work, goes
over to his fridge, which I'm sure

517
00:47:45.480 --> 00:47:50.679
is a fantastic fridge by the way, and pulls himself out some couple of

518
00:47:50.800 --> 00:47:55.719
Oscar Myers. Definitely, you really
think that's binders full of wieners. But

519
00:47:55.920 --> 00:48:00.559
what no, oh, no,
sounds like what Marjorie Taylor Greenhead yesterday.

520
00:48:04.000 --> 00:48:08.519
So you think that Mitt Romney goes
home, opens up his fridge. He's

521
00:48:08.599 --> 00:48:12.119
too you know, he's like too
hot. The only thing in there's two

522
00:48:12.239 --> 00:48:16.320
hot dogs and some busted old ketchup
gets himself a little pot of water or

523
00:48:16.320 --> 00:48:21.440
whatever, boils up a couple of
hot dogs or nukes him or whatever,

524
00:48:21.719 --> 00:48:25.280
eats his poor people dinner, and
then goes to bed in his studio apartment.

525
00:48:25.440 --> 00:48:30.159
You think problems like one of the
street vendor New York City boy.

526
00:48:30.280 --> 00:48:36.519
Yeah, yes, he literally kids. He's literally holding the dude hostage,

527
00:48:37.239 --> 00:48:39.760
just has him in, you know, in his ballroom or something. Right

528
00:48:39.880 --> 00:48:45.119
with his cart this saveth you know, with the with the umbrella and everything.

529
00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:50.280
The guy's never allowed to sleep.
He's got to always be on call.

530
00:48:52.800 --> 00:49:00.719
It's just it's so cringey. Just
don't do it. The only person,

531
00:49:00.159 --> 00:49:07.880
the only person that I honestly believes
eats you know, poor people food,

532
00:49:08.000 --> 00:49:12.159
US food kind of stuff, you
know, normal people food. I

533
00:49:12.320 --> 00:49:15.719
believe that Donald Trump does eat that
because there was too many instances of it,

534
00:49:15.800 --> 00:49:22.360
right him with the KFC on the
plane, him with the catering that

535
00:49:22.400 --> 00:49:25.760
he did for them, remember the
Clemson Football Championships. He's all fast food.

536
00:49:25.760 --> 00:49:30.119
It was amazing. I honestly believe
he does eat that stuff. I

537
00:49:30.159 --> 00:49:34.559
also believe that he also eats all
of the stuff that you could get at

538
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:39.519
Marlago's Restaurant for one hundred dollars of
plate on the appetizer menu. But like,

539
00:49:39.599 --> 00:49:43.920
I'm willing to believe that few.
But I don't believe for a moment

540
00:49:44.000 --> 00:49:50.159
that Mitt Romney's running around eating bachelor
food on the regular, and then he

541
00:49:50.159 --> 00:49:53.280
goes and puts ketchup on it and
of course marginalizes half of the South,

542
00:49:53.679 --> 00:49:58.840
because Homie don't play that well.
As you all know, today is National

543
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:01.960
hot Dog Day, and perhaps you
also know that hot dog is my favorite

544
00:50:01.960 --> 00:50:07.360
meat. I love hot dogs,
I love buns. I love him outside

545
00:50:07.360 --> 00:50:10.599
of buns, I don't know with
baked beans. I just like hot dogs.

546
00:50:10.639 --> 00:50:15.360
It's the best ross baked beans.
Did you hear that? There is?

547
00:50:15.360 --> 00:50:17.519
Without question? So to all of
you who like me, are celebrating

548
00:50:17.840 --> 00:50:22.840
National hot Dog Day, congratulations to
you, and may there be many many

549
00:50:22.880 --> 00:50:27.679
more hot dogs served in our wonderful
land. All right, So a couple

550
00:50:27.760 --> 00:50:35.199
other things too. What he's also
somehow, he's somehow acquired a busted,

551
00:50:35.239 --> 00:50:37.840
old, raggedy looking hat that just
has a hot dog on it, which

552
00:50:37.920 --> 00:50:43.239
I'm sure is probably the hat he
wears every day. You know all around

553
00:50:43.599 --> 00:50:49.559
I said, love making hat.
That's so you just just that and nothing

554
00:50:49.599 --> 00:50:52.960
else, all right? I want
you Sometimes when he's feeling really frisky,

555
00:50:52.079 --> 00:50:57.000
turns it backwards. Well he's got
you know, he's got. He loves

556
00:50:57.039 --> 00:51:01.440
the hot dogs outs in the bun
outside the button. What does it?

557
00:51:01.559 --> 00:51:06.880
What does that mean? All right? So, um, let's I got

558
00:51:06.920 --> 00:51:10.199
a little betting pool ross. How
many seconds from the moment the video stopped

559
00:51:10.199 --> 00:51:16.639
recording before? You think that he
literally violently threw that hot dog to get

560
00:51:16.679 --> 00:51:21.159
the poor people meet away from him? He didn't think Andy Sandberg did just

561
00:51:21.199 --> 00:51:24.280
threw it on the ground. I
think that. I think he waved it

562
00:51:24.320 --> 00:51:30.920
off like he just stuck his hand
in fire ants and then and it made

563
00:51:30.920 --> 00:51:37.000
an intern come over and remove the
hat from his head. Shut up,

564
00:51:37.119 --> 00:51:42.159
dude, Oh you people are just
unbearable. Seven twenty three. Hang on

565
00:51:43.239 --> 00:51:46.760
the show. After the show is
on the iHeartRadio app. Search Casey O

566
00:51:46.880 --> 00:51:58.800
Day for the podcast on the iHeartRadio
app. So, if you go back

567
00:51:58.880 --> 00:52:05.000
to mark of twenty twenty one,
all of the NFT insanity was going on.

568
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:10.199
I remember how long I tried to
mentally avoid it, but it was,

569
00:52:10.360 --> 00:52:13.440
you know, it was too much
in the news that I actually had

570
00:52:13.480 --> 00:52:16.400
to try to figure out what the
hell it was. And then when I

571
00:52:16.400 --> 00:52:22.840
did, I realized that this this, this sounds dumb, but I will

572
00:52:22.840 --> 00:52:24.960
admit a lot of you guys send
emails and stuff and you're like, oh,

573
00:52:25.079 --> 00:52:30.280
this is amazing because I and I
understand the sentiment when you get into

574
00:52:30.320 --> 00:52:43.000
cryptocurrency and NFT from a philosophical standpoint, I understand why people would crave a

575
00:52:43.079 --> 00:52:46.719
means of currency that is not manipulated
by governments, Like I get that.

576
00:52:47.320 --> 00:52:55.559
Plus um, you know, the
ability to essentially move eventually into a cashless

577
00:52:55.679 --> 00:53:02.760
society, a digital society where everything
that you do would be immediately available to

578
00:53:02.800 --> 00:53:06.119
people who would abuse. And they
would tell you, well, look,

579
00:53:06.119 --> 00:53:07.800
we have restrictions that we can't you
know, we can't look at it.

580
00:53:07.840 --> 00:53:10.480
But you see how they abused the
five suc court. You see how they

581
00:53:10.519 --> 00:53:16.039
abused what was it, three hundred
thousand times, basically peaking at stuff.

582
00:53:16.320 --> 00:53:22.679
I remember learning about unmasking under the
Obama administration, like, you don't trust

583
00:53:22.719 --> 00:53:29.800
any of these cats. That being
said, one of the highest selling NFTs

584
00:53:29.880 --> 00:53:36.480
ever back when everything was going bonkers, was a digital Obviously it's all digital,

585
00:53:36.559 --> 00:53:43.119
but the NFT of the first tweet
or one of the first tweets sent

586
00:53:43.159 --> 00:53:45.920
out by the founder of Twitter back
in two thousand and six, Jack,

587
00:53:46.880 --> 00:53:52.360
and the tweet reads, just setting
up my Twitter, right, so this

588
00:53:52.480 --> 00:53:55.639
is you know, which is historical
obviously with on the platform. Well that

589
00:53:57.119 --> 00:54:07.239
sold at the time for two point
nine million dollars. Well it's it's up

590
00:54:07.280 --> 00:54:14.880
for sale again on there's still NFT
auction sites out there. So this sold,

591
00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:20.440
right, this investment sold for two
point nine million dollars in March of

592
00:54:20.519 --> 00:54:30.280
twenty excuse me, in m March
of twenty twenty one, and an investor

593
00:54:30.320 --> 00:54:32.039
bought it for, like I said, nearly three million dollars ross. What

594
00:54:32.079 --> 00:54:38.960
do you think it's currently worth?
I mean three million dollar investment. It's

595
00:54:38.960 --> 00:54:45.719
only had about you know, two
a little over two years to percolate.

596
00:54:45.599 --> 00:54:49.599
But you know the reason you make
investments so you can flip it later.

597
00:54:49.719 --> 00:54:52.639
So after initially being sold for two
point nine million, what do you think

598
00:54:52.679 --> 00:54:57.440
the current value is probably declined?
Right because the market isn't the same as

599
00:54:57.440 --> 00:55:00.480
it used to be. That's fair, that's fair, yes, yeah,

600
00:55:00.519 --> 00:55:01.840
so yeah, I just probably take
a little bit of a haircut. So

601
00:55:01.840 --> 00:55:06.079
what do you what do you think, uh, for two point nine million

602
00:55:06.480 --> 00:55:07.960
two years and a few months later, what do you think it's like five

603
00:55:08.000 --> 00:55:22.760
bucks dollar fourteen? Man, I'm
sure sorry I missed that boat. Uh

604
00:55:22.800 --> 00:55:25.199
did you ever? Do you think
you ever fully understood what a's were either.

605
00:55:25.239 --> 00:55:28.480
I I posted about it on Twitter
a while ago. I said,

606
00:55:28.480 --> 00:55:31.599
I'm so thankful that I was too
stupid to understand what this was, because

607
00:55:31.599 --> 00:55:37.159
that stupidity turned out to be intelligence. Right, yeah, yeah, oh

608
00:55:37.239 --> 00:55:40.719
yeah, yeah, hindsight's twenty twenty. But even that, you could feel

609
00:55:40.760 --> 00:55:45.639
that vibe even back then. Man, I mean the whole thing had like

610
00:55:45.679 --> 00:55:51.239
a had like a tulips feel a
little bit. You know what it was

611
00:55:51.320 --> 00:55:58.480
for me too, is you would
see these new financial gurus that all had

612
00:55:58.519 --> 00:56:01.880
like video you know, YouTube casts, and then their videos would like end

613
00:56:01.960 --> 00:56:07.719
up a lot of times in spammy
little ads on social media, and every

614
00:56:07.719 --> 00:56:10.119
single one of these dudes who all
thought that they had to act like Jim

615
00:56:10.199 --> 00:56:19.960
Kramer, they all looked insane,
right, they all looked like I would

616
00:56:19.960 --> 00:56:22.760
assumer hustling me. And don't get
me wrong, there's a lot of that

617
00:56:22.800 --> 00:56:27.639
in the traditional financial world where I
get creepy Crawley's. But like every one

618
00:56:27.679 --> 00:56:30.599
of these dudes man like I said, it had like tulip like beanie baby

619
00:56:30.679 --> 00:56:36.239
vibes. Now, because I think
beanie babies still have some inherent value,

620
00:56:36.360 --> 00:56:40.760
right, I think they still some
of those actually sell for a budge and

621
00:56:40.920 --> 00:56:45.679
look pumping dump within a lot of
this stuff was going on, especially with

622
00:56:45.719 --> 00:56:50.840
social media influencers. They all had
their old cryptocurrency. How like a crap

623
00:56:50.920 --> 00:56:55.039
ton of them are not in jail
for what was a classic boiler room thing

624
00:56:57.199 --> 00:57:01.360
is beyond me. So didn't you
start your own cryptocurrency? Oh? No,

625
00:57:01.480 --> 00:57:06.400
you you had the Twitter competitor,
that's right with the squirrels, right,

626
00:57:06.440 --> 00:57:07.559
that was your thing. Yeah,
that's where us talk. Right,

627
00:57:08.039 --> 00:57:12.480
what's that? What's the value of
that company worth? Now? We're still

628
00:57:12.519 --> 00:57:14.840
we're still looking over you know,
we're still doing some things. You know,

629
00:57:14.880 --> 00:57:19.079
we're still expanding into the into the
world. There are you? Yeah?

630
00:57:19.760 --> 00:57:22.519
I want to just close the financials, give your competitors and end.

631
00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:24.760
That's where you send me a dollar, yes, and then I send you

632
00:57:24.760 --> 00:57:29.559
a hundred post post it notes and
a hundred squirrels, right, and you

633
00:57:29.599 --> 00:57:32.000
write your note onto the on the
post it note attached it to the squirrel

634
00:57:32.119 --> 00:57:37.599
and send it out to the world. Right, that's right to an individual

635
00:57:37.679 --> 00:57:40.960
just out into the world, right
correct, where we'll finds your message,

636
00:57:42.000 --> 00:57:45.760
finds your message. That's great.
Man, I can't put man, I

637
00:57:45.760 --> 00:57:50.639
can't believe you're not retired in the
Cayman Islands already. H Look at the

638
00:57:50.679 --> 00:57:53.239
way Mitt Romney's holding that hot dog
too. Wait, he fundamentally can't even

639
00:57:53.320 --> 00:57:58.079
hold a hot dog properly. I
was just I just want to rewatch the

640
00:57:58.159 --> 00:58:00.480
video during the break there of him
with his stupid hot dog hat and his

641
00:58:00.599 --> 00:58:06.199
poor people meat like he's saying it's
his favorite meat. Come on, dude,

642
00:58:06.480 --> 00:58:07.519
I'm a fan, right, but
like, would you even say it's

643
00:58:07.559 --> 00:58:14.119
top five? Um? Yeah,
no, if I had to put a

644
00:58:14.159 --> 00:58:16.239
list yet. Look, I like
it, but I'm particular. I like

645
00:58:16.280 --> 00:58:20.159
the hot dog. I like a
bit of char on it on the grill.

646
00:58:21.039 --> 00:58:22.960
I'm not a big fan of like
boiled hot dog to do it.

647
00:58:23.480 --> 00:58:27.280
Yeah, I want, I want
there to be some grizzle on the outside

648
00:58:27.480 --> 00:58:30.880
and uh and I'm I'm I'm super
down with it. This thing that Mitt

649
00:58:30.920 --> 00:58:34.559
Romney's like, he doesn't even know
how to hold the damn thing. And

650
00:58:34.639 --> 00:58:37.079
I'm sorry, I don't think an
eight year old would utter a hot Dog's

651
00:58:37.159 --> 00:58:45.400
my favorite meat, and they really
like hot dogs. So one more time

652
00:58:45.400 --> 00:58:47.840
with the audio. Well, as
you all know, today is National hot

653
00:58:47.840 --> 00:58:52.840
Dog Day, and perhaps you also
know that hot dog is my favorite meat.

654
00:58:52.480 --> 00:58:57.559
I love hot dogs. I love
them and buns. I love them

655
00:58:57.559 --> 00:59:00.880
outside of buns. I love them
with baked beans. I just like hot

656
00:59:00.920 --> 00:59:02.480
dogs. It's the best, you
know, mess meat there is, without

657
00:59:02.559 --> 00:59:07.280
question. So all of you who
like me are celebrating National hot Dog Day.

658
00:59:07.639 --> 00:59:12.480
Uh, congratulations to you. May
there be many many more hot dogs

659
00:59:12.480 --> 00:59:15.679
served in our wonderful land. As
he throws it begone demon videos over.

660
00:59:17.480 --> 00:59:22.079
Oh everything is stupid man. All
right, let's get to the phones.

661
00:59:22.760 --> 00:59:27.519
Janet, thanks for hanging on.
What's up? Problem? So, I'm

662
00:59:27.599 --> 00:59:30.199
really surprised to hear you say you
thought there were more of Plan members than

663
00:59:30.480 --> 00:59:38.480
um Nazis because we bought some of
the worst Nazis they were here and gave

664
00:59:38.559 --> 00:59:44.360
them jobs. Mecha the thirties or
forties, right, you're talking about,

665
00:59:44.599 --> 00:59:49.159
yes, post World War two,
where we essentially forgave them and brought them

666
00:59:49.159 --> 00:59:52.920
over here. Yes, right right, But you know that didn't tags who

667
00:59:52.920 --> 00:59:59.039
they were, the fact that we
forgave them. Um. But they're all

668
00:59:59.159 --> 01:00:04.239
dead. So yes, they had
families and they've all been over here breeding

669
01:00:04.360 --> 01:00:09.239
for like eighty plus years hungry.
Does that make their offspring Nazis? I

670
01:00:09.280 --> 01:00:15.599
mean, I'm well, I mean, with that logic, I got a

671
01:00:15.639 --> 01:00:21.880
bunch of slaveholders and former slaves listening, right, so, and we reduc

672
01:00:21.960 --> 01:00:25.039
that purpose of reparation. So,
don't get me wrong, there's still some

673
01:00:25.119 --> 01:00:30.599
people. Um, I don't know
if you ever saw the travel video where

674
01:00:30.639 --> 01:00:35.320
the dude went down and was interviewing
some of these German enclaves down and like

675
01:00:35.480 --> 01:00:38.519
Argentina and whatnot, and they kind
of like kind of like got into the

676
01:00:38.519 --> 01:00:44.760
inner workings and some of these folks
are really still into their relatives ideology.

677
01:00:44.800 --> 01:00:49.519
It was really creepy. So but
I don't know. But then I but

678
01:00:49.559 --> 01:00:52.360
with the with the clan members,
I'm just I'm just hell, I'm just

679
01:00:52.400 --> 01:00:57.920
thinking of, you know, the
former Democratic members of Congress in my lifetime,

680
01:00:58.440 --> 01:01:01.639
right right. But honestly, I
thought the clan was about ned.

681
01:01:01.719 --> 01:01:06.639
I thought white supremacist even out numbering
them. Now oh hell no, all

682
01:01:06.719 --> 01:01:10.519
right, within the sound of my
voice is the one of the big big

683
01:01:10.559 --> 01:01:15.920
clan leaders here still real? Yeah, yeah, yeah, right, here

684
01:01:15.920 --> 01:01:20.639
in North Carolina. Camera it's up
by eating or something. Okay, I

685
01:01:20.760 --> 01:01:22.280
thought I'm about not out. I
guess I was wrong. I ain't just

686
01:01:22.360 --> 01:01:27.400
saying very much of mondam Land.
No. Well look, because you know

687
01:01:27.480 --> 01:01:30.599
people are like, yeah, you
got politicians running around like there's a half

688
01:01:30.639 --> 01:01:36.119
million of these cats busting around the
South. But the reality is the numbers

689
01:01:36.599 --> 01:01:42.599
are not that, but there's still
people who absolutely are. So are you

690
01:01:42.679 --> 01:01:45.440
gret all right? Jack? Shoot
the call there, Thank you very much.

691
01:01:45.599 --> 01:01:49.960
And then Donna, real quick,
what's up? Good morning? Two

692
01:01:50.039 --> 01:01:54.280
things my mother wanted to tell you
that Romney putting ketchup on his hotdog was

693
01:01:54.320 --> 01:02:00.440
a thumbs up to John Kerry because
he's the hunt he married behind. Yeah

694
01:02:00.519 --> 01:02:06.039
noms John carry and uh, I
think the only hot dog mittens like the

695
01:02:06.159 --> 01:02:10.239
kindy ties to his car on vacation. I see what you did there.

696
01:02:10.519 --> 01:02:19.480
I forgot about that fun right there. Well come on, man, it's

697
01:02:19.800 --> 01:02:22.280
if somebody didn't catch him doing it. He hadn't driven all the way to

698
01:02:22.320 --> 01:02:27.960
Cannas all like that, right,
But it wasn't as egregious as what happened

699
01:02:28.119 --> 01:02:32.840
in Lampoon's vacation. So this is
true. And don't take your man out.

700
01:02:34.920 --> 01:02:37.880
It's my understanding. You wouldn't put
a dog up on there. But

701
01:02:37.920 --> 01:02:40.960
that's how you transport cats, right, Oh not me. You want to

702
01:02:40.960 --> 01:02:45.480
try to transport cat like that?
Ah yeah, you stick in their carrier.

703
01:02:45.519 --> 01:02:49.559
They love going in their carriers.
Yeah, it'd be real happy when

704
01:02:49.599 --> 01:02:53.000
you take him out. All right, thanks, It looks like they have

705
01:02:53.039 --> 01:02:55.840
a lion Maine. Don't do that, by the way, to your cat.

706
01:02:55.920 --> 01:03:02.119
So uh anyways, seven forty six
race Agic from the Weather Channel here.

707
01:03:04.199 --> 01:03:07.800
Oh, we got into a hot
dog discussion. You see Mitt Rom

708
01:03:07.920 --> 01:03:12.159
you know hot dogs my favorite meat. Shuts your face, it's not you

709
01:03:12.159 --> 01:03:15.519
don't eat four people for no on
man. No. But then Ross surmise

710
01:03:15.639 --> 01:03:20.079
that actually he had kidnapped one of
those New York hot dog carts and just

711
01:03:20.119 --> 01:03:23.440
has it in the west wing of
his mansion or something, which yeah,

712
01:03:23.519 --> 01:03:27.199
yeah, yeah, yeah, you
put in the party room. So delicious.

713
01:03:27.239 --> 01:03:30.800
All right, so we got the
are the more serious? Now we

714
01:03:30.800 --> 01:03:34.480
gotta get into this um. Obviously, what happened to Moore County in parts

715
01:03:34.480 --> 01:03:38.079
of Edgecombe County. The fact that
nobody is killed in this is amazing.

716
01:03:38.800 --> 01:03:45.519
And how about first ever e F
three tornado observed in central North Carolina in

717
01:03:45.559 --> 01:03:52.760
the month of July, with estimated
winds and one and fifty miles between seconds.

718
01:03:53.039 --> 01:03:58.320
I believe it's the second. I
don't want to have three. Yeah,

719
01:03:58.320 --> 01:04:00.840
according the e F three tornado mark
the second e F three tornado in

720
01:04:00.960 --> 01:04:08.239
July in the state of North Carolina
and recorded history is what the local news

721
01:04:08.320 --> 01:04:11.440
here is reporting. Now, I
don't trust the lot of the local news

722
01:04:11.440 --> 01:04:13.920
guys here, so you may be
right, well, I don't know if

723
01:04:13.920 --> 01:04:18.719
the Weather Service is being specific to
central North Carolina. And then the news

724
01:04:18.800 --> 01:04:24.159
is saying, well, yeah,
the entire state. Maybe that's figure out

725
01:04:24.159 --> 01:04:27.400
where the other one was, but
go ahead right up here. Yeah,

726
01:04:27.480 --> 01:04:32.440
so unusual event U Nash County into
Edgecomb County. The Weather Service saying the

727
01:04:32.480 --> 01:04:36.320
start time at about twelve twenty five, ending at about twelve fifty eight.

728
01:04:36.760 --> 01:04:43.880
And you know, damage are luckily
no fatalities, luckily no severe weather today

729
01:04:43.960 --> 01:04:46.760
as we will see clouds increase a
low nineties, I feel close to one

730
01:04:46.840 --> 01:04:50.079
hundred. We'll have a round of
showers and cutter showers tonight and that we'll

731
01:04:50.079 --> 01:04:55.159
heat it up tomorrow into the little
bit nineties. May feel like one hundred

732
01:04:55.440 --> 01:04:59.880
next chance of showers and butter storms
in here, probably on Sunday afternoon.

733
01:05:00.039 --> 01:05:02.519
Let's stay warm and humid, but
back down a little bit. By Sunday

734
01:05:02.559 --> 01:05:06.039
at the try It and West may
actually stay in the mid the upper eighties.

735
01:05:06.199 --> 01:05:10.840
As a triangle, we'll probably could
close to ninety or above, so

736
01:05:11.599 --> 01:05:13.400
you know, a little bit of
a break. I don't think we'll have

737
01:05:13.440 --> 01:05:16.039
any more severe weather, but hot, humid here over the next couple of

738
01:05:16.119 --> 01:05:20.480
days. If there is a shower
chance today during the daylight hours, probably

739
01:05:20.480 --> 01:05:25.880
out toward the mountains and maybe into
the western parts of the try It.

740
01:05:26.880 --> 01:05:29.800
All right, So I tried to
figure out what she's referring to, and

741
01:05:29.840 --> 01:05:33.239
then it turns into this long diet
tribe about the former Fujita scale, and

742
01:05:33.280 --> 01:05:39.719
now I don't care anymore. So
time in nineteen eighty eight, under the

743
01:05:39.719 --> 01:05:42.480
old Fujita scale, it was an
e F four, but it would be

744
01:05:42.480 --> 01:05:45.400
an EF three today and I don't
know, so what the heck? But

745
01:05:45.559 --> 01:05:48.320
that also in Nash County, by
the way, So yeah, why don't

746
01:05:48.320 --> 01:05:54.039
we just go with strong tornadoes to
EF three D F four strength don't happen

747
01:05:54.079 --> 01:05:57.239
at often? Yeah, all right, all right, sir, thank you,

748
01:05:57.320 --> 01:06:00.119
very much. We'll talk in an
hour, seven forty nine here on

749
01:06:00.199 --> 01:06:06.880
the case DA Radio program. Now
everyone's we didn't we just have a where

750
01:06:06.920 --> 01:06:14.199
to get hot dogs discussion not that
long ago on the show. Yeah,

751
01:06:14.199 --> 01:06:16.840
oh, in the name of the
place that was the Roast Grill. I

752
01:06:16.880 --> 01:06:23.079
couldn't remember that earlier and I eating
there quite a bit so, especially back

753
01:06:23.079 --> 01:06:26.119
in the day. But yeah,
I remember the ketchup thing like, don't

754
01:06:26.119 --> 01:06:29.599
ask for ketchup. I'm not really
a ketchup guy on the hot dogs,

755
01:06:29.599 --> 01:06:31.360
but I know a lot of people
are, So all right, seven fifty

756
01:06:31.400 --> 01:06:43.480
we'll be back, hang on.
Thank you. Casey is one four five

757
01:06:44.159 --> 01:06:47.320
PTI in the Triad and one oh
six one FM Talk in the Triangle.

758
01:06:50.559 --> 01:06:56.440
Alright, seven fifty five here on
the ca c O Day radio program.

759
01:06:56.480 --> 01:07:06.360
And um yeah, yeah, this
is among my favorite week of the year

760
01:07:09.119 --> 01:07:13.760
based on this schedule and everything that
goes along with it. As the British

761
01:07:13.760 --> 01:07:17.480
Open is going on, excuse me, the Open. They don't like it

762
01:07:17.519 --> 01:07:20.559
when you say the British Open,
and coverage starts at like four in the

763
01:07:20.559 --> 01:07:26.440
morning, so it's just on throughout
the show. So if I do sound

764
01:07:26.559 --> 01:07:30.920
distracted, well more distracted than usual, that's what's up. So lamp Ricks

765
01:07:30.960 --> 01:07:38.480
in the lead right now just from
what South Africa and then Stuart Saints in

766
01:07:38.679 --> 01:07:44.840
second as the highest rank to American. There. We're playing at Royal Liverpool

767
01:07:45.480 --> 01:07:49.480
anyway, so yeah, that's the
thing going on, so check this out.

768
01:07:49.880 --> 01:07:57.480
In addition to the Open, today
also marks the beginning of the Women's

769
01:07:57.519 --> 01:08:02.440
World Cup and already here we go
again females. This CNN, by the

770
01:08:02.480 --> 01:08:09.599
way, female soccer players earned twenty
five cents to the dollar of men at

771
01:08:09.639 --> 01:08:21.359
World Cup. A new CNN analysis
finds every flip and time with this soccer

772
01:08:21.439 --> 01:08:26.239
players at the twenty twenty three Women's
World Cup will earn just twenty five cents

773
01:08:26.239 --> 01:08:30.800
for every dollar earned by men at
their World Cup last year. But it's

774
01:08:30.840 --> 01:08:36.479
an improvement. This year, FIFA
announced that forty nine million of the record

775
01:08:36.560 --> 01:08:42.399
one hundred and ten million dollars in
prize money would be split directly to all

776
01:08:42.479 --> 01:08:49.399
individual players, roughly thirty thousand each
for participating. However, if you're on

777
01:08:49.399 --> 01:08:55.760
the winning squad, your bonus and
there's a range of bonuses based on how

778
01:08:55.880 --> 01:09:00.439
deep you get into this. You'll
get two hundred and seventy thousand and per

779
01:09:00.479 --> 01:09:03.920
player. But then they pull out
the info graphics and they show that the

780
01:09:04.039 --> 01:09:09.439
men's World Cup last year had a
total prize money of four hundred and forty

781
01:09:09.479 --> 01:09:15.680
million to the one hundred and ten
million that the women are getting. Huh,

782
01:09:15.800 --> 01:09:21.520
I wonder why that is. Well, CNN also wondered and decided it's

783
01:09:21.560 --> 01:09:40.800
about discrimination and that they're working towards
equality within the sport. Again, there

784
01:09:40.920 --> 01:09:45.279
is a very clear correlation as to
why the prize money is what the prize

785
01:09:45.319 --> 01:09:49.840
money is, because the prize money
is based on the revenue derived. Okay,

786
01:09:50.520 --> 01:09:56.079
and yes, obviously in when it
comes to World Cup, one of

787
01:09:56.119 --> 01:10:01.960
the teams that has been the most
dominant US Woman's World Cup team is still

788
01:10:02.399 --> 01:10:08.319
even though it is in the largest
sports entertainment financial market in the world,

789
01:10:10.239 --> 01:10:15.039
still most people don't watch it,
and therefore brands don't advertise to the extent

790
01:10:15.119 --> 01:10:18.279
they do with the men where most
of the revenues derived from other countries.

791
01:10:19.479 --> 01:10:57.239
But I'm just a broken record at
this point. All right, good morning

792
01:10:57.319 --> 01:11:01.479
everybody. It is eight o seven
here on the Case Here Day radio program.

793
01:11:01.520 --> 01:11:04.960
What a decision? What a decision? People? Having a mate today?

794
01:11:08.800 --> 01:11:14.039
You're gonna watch the British open or
the Women's World Cup. Boy,

795
01:11:14.119 --> 01:11:20.000
oh boy, it's a toughie.
Ross. I'm assuming you'll drag another TV

796
01:11:20.079 --> 01:11:23.439
into the living room, line them
both up so you can watch both.

797
01:11:23.560 --> 01:11:27.199
Right, I gotta go British Open. Ah, you're gonna go British Open.

798
01:11:28.920 --> 01:11:32.039
Boston Paul is sending me email over
some camera check. I haven't said,

799
01:11:32.079 --> 01:11:34.399
I didn't see what you're talking about, Boston Paul. If you want

800
01:11:34.399 --> 01:11:40.439
to call the show and explain your
your pervy email, we can do that.

801
01:11:42.880 --> 01:11:46.840
Is there's some smoke show camera check
following them around, Maybe it's on

802
01:11:46.880 --> 01:11:50.159
the Twitter. I'll go look on
the Twitter. So, yeah, we

803
01:11:50.239 --> 01:11:56.359
got that going on CNN also doing
their Yeah, all the Women's World Cup

804
01:11:56.399 --> 01:11:59.439
players don't get as much as the
men. And you know, I'll never

805
01:11:59.439 --> 01:12:02.079
get into the economics, but look, most of the analysis you see is

806
01:12:02.079 --> 01:12:06.640
patently dishonest when it comes to these
cats. Case in point, I was

807
01:12:06.720 --> 01:12:14.920
reading this yesterday. The headline from
CNN structural racism may contribute to mass shooting.

808
01:12:15.039 --> 01:12:19.840
Study says, all right, let's
let's quickly understand that the what is

809
01:12:19.840 --> 01:12:26.039
a mass shooting? Obviously ebbs and
flows with whoever is using it, but

810
01:12:26.920 --> 01:12:31.800
most often a mass shooting is simply
a shooting where multiple people are either wounded

811
01:12:31.880 --> 01:12:40.680
or killed. Okay, and sometimes
the numbers two in some studies so that

812
01:12:40.720 --> 01:12:44.800
they can job the numbers up.
I think four is more the standard.

813
01:12:45.439 --> 01:12:50.760
Some require that somebody be killed,
so it ebbs and flows. CNN,

814
01:12:50.760 --> 01:12:55.720
though, likes to juice the numbers
right so they can they run articles like

815
01:12:55.840 --> 01:13:00.720
in February, there's already been three
hundred mass shootings. But the va majority

816
01:13:00.760 --> 01:13:06.560
of what qualifies under that definition as
a mass shooting is not you know,

817
01:13:08.600 --> 01:13:15.840
Vivaldi or the Christian school in Nashville, or the grocery store up there in

818
01:13:15.840 --> 01:13:20.159
Buffalo, New York. The vast, vast, vast majority of those are

819
01:13:21.920 --> 01:13:29.680
you know, the more traditional ones
that you see in in in where somebody

820
01:13:29.720 --> 01:13:32.760
goes in and they indiscriminately fire at
a group of people that they have some

821
01:13:32.880 --> 01:13:39.359
beef with, or there's a gang
element or whatever it may be, and

822
01:13:39.680 --> 01:13:45.640
enough people are struck that it then
qualifies. So that is the vast majority.

823
01:13:45.720 --> 01:13:49.079
So when you get into the high
crime areas of the US and major

824
01:13:49.199 --> 01:13:55.560
cities, that is where overwhelmingly they're
taking place, most likely to take place

825
01:13:55.560 --> 01:13:59.039
with a handgun rifles account for very
few of them, even though they get

826
01:13:59.079 --> 01:14:03.279
all the discussion, and you know
that's obviously that's not what gets most of

827
01:14:03.279 --> 01:14:08.319
the coverage. However, CNN wants
to dive into the numbers. So let's

828
01:14:08.359 --> 01:14:14.119
see if they do so in an
honest manner along with researchers at Tulane University.

829
01:14:15.960 --> 01:14:23.399
Here we go. Mass shootings in
major metro areas of the US disproportionately

830
01:14:23.600 --> 01:14:30.399
affect black people. That's right.
When it comes to a mass shooting,

831
01:14:30.159 --> 01:14:35.079
you from a when you weigh it
out per hundred thousand, if you are

832
01:14:35.319 --> 01:14:39.600
if you are a person of color, you are more likely to be the

833
01:14:39.680 --> 01:14:51.000
victim of a mass shooting under this
definition. So what might the data yield

834
01:14:53.279 --> 01:14:59.560
for why that may be? Obviously
one of the things that it should yield,

835
01:15:00.720 --> 01:15:05.359
and they kind of skirt around,
is that because these are these are

836
01:15:05.439 --> 01:15:13.079
crimes that are generally associated with the
criminal and or gang behavior, they are

837
01:15:13.119 --> 01:15:19.000
going to disproportionately affect socioeconomically challenged areas
and you're going to have a higher percentage

838
01:15:19.000 --> 01:15:26.479
on that per one hundred thousand basis
of black individuals who live in those areas.

839
01:15:26.520 --> 01:15:31.760
That's not that's not new that's not
new information. Okay. However,

840
01:15:32.880 --> 01:15:40.279
the reason behind the shootings here um
CNN gets well, they get a lot

841
01:15:40.319 --> 01:15:45.800
more, they don't get as specific, and it allows you to try to,

842
01:15:45.000 --> 01:15:48.880
you know, create your own adventure, create your own narrative because they

843
01:15:48.920 --> 01:15:57.199
say that the main reason is structural
racism. Really, so you think the

844
01:15:57.319 --> 01:16:02.600
largest driving force in why there are
so many black shooting victims under this definition

845
01:16:02.640 --> 01:16:15.600
of mass shootings is societal structural racism. I'll know about that. The research

846
01:16:15.720 --> 01:16:21.600
covered mass shootings between twenty fifteen and
twenty nineteen and showed the population area most

847
01:16:21.720 --> 01:16:29.439
impacted with a record. Let's see
here, how many shootings did they claim

848
01:16:29.479 --> 01:16:32.720
took play eight hundred and sixty five, by the way, which accounted for

849
01:16:32.760 --> 01:16:39.880
eight hundred and twenty eight fatalities in
nearly four thousand injuries. Chicago had the

850
01:16:39.920 --> 01:16:43.800
greatest number of mass shootings during that
period, with one hundred and forty one

851
01:16:43.960 --> 01:16:48.720
leading to ninety seven deaths. Again, they're not accounting for individual where one

852
01:16:48.760 --> 01:16:55.920
individual kills another individual. However,
they've decided that the totality of circumstances that

853
01:16:56.000 --> 01:17:04.560
have led to this is structural,
inherent societal racism, and they fail to

854
01:17:04.600 --> 01:17:10.640
get into what I think is a
component that should be discussed in here,

855
01:17:11.640 --> 01:17:17.239
and it's not the victims. It's
the other side of the gun, okay,

856
01:17:18.920 --> 01:17:27.279
because for whatever reason, you're left
with this conclusion that a bunch of

857
01:17:27.439 --> 01:17:35.720
a bunch of innocent black citizens are
at risk for some rando to come into

858
01:17:35.760 --> 01:17:42.119
their neighborhood and start shooting at them, which you know, frankly, we're

859
01:17:42.119 --> 01:17:45.479
all at risk for that, regardless
of race and where we live. But

860
01:17:45.840 --> 01:17:51.000
you're going to have more concentration in
areas that are you know, more economically

861
01:17:51.119 --> 01:17:57.399
challenged. And that's because individuals,
and it's not necessarily in most cases,

862
01:17:57.479 --> 01:18:05.920
from outside the neighborhood find that this
is the surest road to acquiring money,

863
01:18:06.119 --> 01:18:10.920
right, This is this is the
lifestyle. And there's also you know,

864
01:18:10.920 --> 01:18:15.119
we can get into the cultural stuff
there. But the fact remains that when

865
01:18:15.159 --> 01:18:19.560
you break it down on a when
you break it down using FBI crime statistics,

866
01:18:19.600 --> 01:18:24.720
which are you allowed to post those
on Twitter? Now, the reality

867
01:18:24.880 --> 01:18:30.199
is the overwhelming majority on a per
one hundred thousand basis all right, So

868
01:18:30.279 --> 01:18:41.159
if you extrapulate population percentage and then
crime commission, it's overwhelmingly black assailant shooting

869
01:18:41.199 --> 01:18:48.039
black victims, and it's a huge
problem. So to sit here and decide

870
01:18:48.039 --> 01:18:53.199
that you got to write a whole
article which leaves open this possibility that a

871
01:18:53.199 --> 01:19:00.279
bunch of white dudes are rolling through
black neighborhoods indiscriminately shooting instead of because again

872
01:19:00.560 --> 01:19:05.199
you're you're pegging this all on inherent
white privilege and societal racism instead of really

873
01:19:05.199 --> 01:19:10.399
getting down to it where some you
know, some little kid can't get in

874
01:19:10.520 --> 01:19:14.760
his mom's suv to go get a
flipping snow cone because some piece of crap

875
01:19:14.760 --> 01:19:18.479
and Durham can't tell two SUVs apart, and then fires indiscriminately into it,

876
01:19:18.840 --> 01:19:24.840
and you want to make it this
big racial thing when in reality, the

877
01:19:24.880 --> 01:19:29.680
majority of these cases, especially in
Chicago, it's almost overwhelming majority. I

878
01:19:29.680 --> 01:19:33.640
think it's like eighty seven percent or
something. Um are is black on black

879
01:19:33.720 --> 01:19:40.760
crime. And yes, don't get
me wrong, I understand why you'd want

880
01:19:40.760 --> 01:19:45.720
to get into why, you know, economics and then therefore economics that are

881
01:19:45.520 --> 01:19:50.279
you know, the researchers claim or
the result of inherent structural racism, and

882
01:19:50.399 --> 01:19:54.720
you want to act like that's the
only thing going on here, that where

883
01:19:54.720 --> 01:20:00.159
these assailants were who you don't even
identify were somehow driven there purely because as

884
01:20:00.279 --> 01:20:04.239
society is all inherently racist, and
not because we have huge cultural issues,

885
01:20:05.800 --> 01:20:11.960
crime issues, and specifically idiot politicians
here. You really want to get into

886
01:20:11.960 --> 01:20:16.199
it, idiot politicians who allow this
stuff to fester and never really become addressed

887
01:20:18.239 --> 01:20:24.720
because that's the woke thing to do. You're just going to continue the cycle.

888
01:20:25.039 --> 01:20:31.520
There's zero suggestions of solutions here.
There is only this carefully crafted study

889
01:20:31.600 --> 01:20:38.000
where they only stare at one side
of of the spreadsheet so that they can

890
01:20:38.000 --> 01:20:43.640
get another thing in saying this is
all white people's fault, and it's just

891
01:20:43.760 --> 01:20:48.399
so lazy. And it's not just
lazy because it's attacking you know, evil

892
01:20:48.800 --> 01:20:53.960
Christian cis, white males or whoever
is the most hated there. It's lazy,

893
01:20:54.159 --> 01:21:02.239
and it's lazy because it doesn't do
anything to improve the situation. So

894
01:21:02.399 --> 01:21:06.920
when people go, well, you
know, why are why is there not

895
01:21:08.159 --> 01:21:12.960
people in their addressing black on black
crime in South Chicago, The reality is

896
01:21:13.000 --> 01:21:16.359
there is there are people that are
working on it. They're not even discussed.

897
01:21:16.359 --> 01:21:21.159
They're talked about in this article,
but more so they're they're not given

898
01:21:21.199 --> 01:21:28.479
the high profile of people like David
Hogg running around right. You need that,

899
01:21:28.720 --> 01:21:31.439
You need that coverage. You need
people to see that there are individuals

900
01:21:31.479 --> 01:21:38.640
willing to go into these neighborhoods in
South Chicago, in Baltimore, in what

901
01:21:38.760 --> 01:21:45.119
other cities are they highlighting here Milwaukee
right where they talk about how it has

902
01:21:45.159 --> 01:21:51.359
the highest segregation index. You need
to see that there are individuals going in

903
01:21:51.399 --> 01:21:55.399
there and trying to make a difference, and you need to see politicians that

904
01:21:55.439 --> 01:22:00.359
are willing to do it. And
you need to create and vironment where even

905
01:22:00.439 --> 01:22:08.720
the citizens within these communities who many
times are fearful and rightfully so, of

906
01:22:08.880 --> 01:22:12.279
helping to improve their own neighborhood because
they don't want to live in a crap

907
01:22:12.319 --> 01:22:15.560
hole and they don't want to live
where where they're eight year olds getting shot

908
01:22:15.560 --> 01:22:19.000
because he wanted a snow cone,
or they're going to fire bullets into the

909
01:22:19.000 --> 01:22:23.920
Old Ladies House because she talked to
the police. They need to know that

910
01:22:23.960 --> 01:22:28.920
there are enough people are that are
working to push back on this, and

911
01:22:29.000 --> 01:22:33.039
that requires a certain amount of media
coverage that is lacking. Instead, you

912
01:22:33.079 --> 01:22:38.399
get CNN looking in here going it's
it's really bad, and it's really bad

913
01:22:38.439 --> 01:22:43.600
because structural racism, and so we
got to go ahead and fix that rather

914
01:22:43.640 --> 01:22:45.439
than going, hey, you know
what, enough people are fed up with

915
01:22:45.479 --> 01:22:51.720
this crap, and so through a
variety of initiatives and individuals, there will

916
01:22:51.760 --> 01:22:56.640
be numbers enough for us to say
this is not going to be permitted in

917
01:22:56.680 --> 01:23:00.680
our society and we will do whatever
you need to do to do this.

918
01:23:01.239 --> 01:23:05.199
And people are inspired by other individuals
who are willing to put their ass on

919
01:23:05.239 --> 01:23:11.520
the line to go do this.
But this, this whole story, this

920
01:23:11.560 --> 01:23:16.640
whole piece of crap, journalist here, journalism here literally just makes the argument

921
01:23:16.680 --> 01:23:20.439
that what really is needed there is
they just needs to be uh, you

922
01:23:20.479 --> 01:23:25.439
know, needs to be a bunch
of money shoveled into into the into the

923
01:23:25.439 --> 01:23:30.000
neighborhood there in schools, and if
you just spend enough money, everything will

924
01:23:30.079 --> 01:23:35.359
change. And the fact remains that
that's simply not the case, because there's

925
01:23:35.359 --> 01:23:41.239
a lot more going on here.
But first and foremost, you need to

926
01:23:41.279 --> 01:23:45.159
turn the tide of individuals who feel
empowered enough to do something about it.

927
01:23:46.960 --> 01:23:54.119
And because that is a tale as
old as time in this world, where

928
01:23:54.119 --> 01:23:58.960
the people have had enough and the
people that are making their lives a living

929
01:23:59.039 --> 01:24:06.359
hell of eventually there is enough camaraderie
that people rise up and expel their persecutors,

930
01:24:06.479 --> 01:24:11.399
and whether it is kicking the British
out of here a few hundred years

931
01:24:11.399 --> 01:24:17.840
ago because screw them, or people
who have literally turned around neighborhoods and have

932
01:24:17.920 --> 01:24:24.359
turned around crime problems and communities because
they decided to get tough, because they

933
01:24:24.399 --> 01:24:28.439
decided that enough is enough, that
they decided that they're not going to commute

934
01:24:28.479 --> 01:24:31.720
sentences so they look good right before
an election, and then a flipping serial

935
01:24:31.800 --> 01:24:35.239
killer runs around and murders for women. Looking at you, State of Oregon.

936
01:24:38.039 --> 01:24:40.960
Enough people have to reject it,
and they need to feel that they

937
01:24:41.039 --> 01:24:44.960
have enough people around them to do
it. So I don't blame the people

938
01:24:44.960 --> 01:24:47.279
in these communities who are just trying
to get by, and I don't blame

939
01:24:47.319 --> 01:24:51.199
the people that are in a financial
position where they're not able to simply go

940
01:24:51.840 --> 01:24:58.279
live somewhere else. Necessarily, I
blame individuals who want to sit here like

941
01:24:58.439 --> 01:25:02.359
this. Do analysis not come even
close to what some of the main problems

942
01:25:02.399 --> 01:25:06.520
are, and once again blaming on
a boogeyman, because it sends the message

943
01:25:06.880 --> 01:25:12.359
that individuals who would go and make
these neighborhoods and areas of living hell for

944
01:25:12.439 --> 01:25:15.239
the citizens. They can't help themselves, They have no other choice. What

945
01:25:15.319 --> 01:25:23.079
are they supposed to do? All
right? Eight eight eight nine three four

946
01:25:23.239 --> 01:25:28.520
seven eight seven four. And there's
so many examples of this, whether it

947
01:25:28.600 --> 01:25:31.680
is broken windows policy in New York, the renovation of Times Square at the

948
01:25:31.760 --> 01:25:36.359
time where New York, unlike cities
nowadays, said we're not going to sit

949
01:25:36.439 --> 01:25:43.119
here and take this city center portion
and just turn it over to criminality.

950
01:25:43.479 --> 01:25:47.760
We're gonna start doing something. And
you saw a precipitous drop in people running

951
01:25:47.760 --> 01:25:55.159
around and committing these violent crimes.
You can look at Old West history,

952
01:25:55.199 --> 01:25:59.560
man, these lawless towns out there
where the citizens banded together and said enough

953
01:26:02.600 --> 01:26:05.039
and what they and one of the
things that they would do is they'd say

954
01:26:05.159 --> 01:26:10.279
enough and then they would go out
and they would employ sworn marshals and other

955
01:26:10.359 --> 01:26:17.920
law enforcement to literally come to the
community and clean that crap up. I

956
01:26:17.960 --> 01:26:24.600
could give you a hundred examples,
but you get the gist. Yes,

957
01:26:24.720 --> 01:26:29.479
Bill, what's up, oh sir? He was talking about the British open

958
01:26:30.359 --> 01:26:35.279
Somewhere I read hello, yeah,
go ahead, okay. Somewhere I read

959
01:26:35.359 --> 01:26:40.840
that many years ago, Keith Moon
wanted to play the British Open, but

960
01:26:40.920 --> 01:26:45.079
he was denying access because it was
I think it was by virtue or the

961
01:26:45.119 --> 01:26:48.119
Queen or something. So as a
prank he flew over the course and dropped

962
01:26:48.640 --> 01:26:55.399
literally thousands of pink ball balls.
I had not read that, but I

963
01:26:55.439 --> 01:26:58.079
don't know. You know, he
liked to party. I think it was

964
01:26:58.079 --> 01:27:00.479
in his biography, ye that you
like the party, so I could see

965
01:27:00.479 --> 01:27:02.279
that happen. And all right,
Bill, thanks for the cult Sorr.

966
01:27:02.279 --> 01:27:04.479
I'm just up against the clark,
all right, Boston Paul. I got

967
01:27:04.479 --> 01:27:08.279
about a minute. What are you
staring? Okay, what's your deal?

968
01:27:09.279 --> 01:27:15.880
See now direct TV they have the
the The Open simulcast of five stations,

969
01:27:15.920 --> 01:27:19.399
you know. And yeah, and
they got a camera crew following Steep and

970
01:27:19.520 --> 01:27:24.560
Day and sitz Gerald or whatever his
name is six bat Yeah, and uh

971
01:27:25.239 --> 01:27:29.800
yeah, this chick looks like she
uh she she could be going to Trader

972
01:27:29.920 --> 01:27:31.760
Joe's on a Monday morning, you
know what I mean? All right,

973
01:27:31.800 --> 01:27:35.359
that's by the way, that's creepy, Boston Paul, code for smoke show.

974
01:27:35.479 --> 01:27:39.640
So he so. Uh. And
another thing, how to get your

975
01:27:40.000 --> 01:27:44.399
ev to Wyoming. You take a
little trail and you hook it onto your

976
01:27:44.439 --> 01:27:48.000
back of EV and you carry about
a hundred gallons of diesel. What a

977
01:27:48.079 --> 01:27:51.520
generator that way? You don't have
to stop? Yeah, hey, don't.

978
01:27:51.640 --> 01:27:55.520
Yeah man, I used to have
a truck with one of those big

979
01:27:55.560 --> 01:27:58.039
eighty gallon tanks back there, so
I know the drill Boston, Paul,

980
01:27:58.079 --> 01:28:00.399
I got to go to break.
I'm sorry, man, I'll let you

981
01:28:00.439 --> 01:28:04.279
get back to um. Making everyone
feel uncomfortable, We'll be back. Hang

982
01:28:04.359 --> 01:28:16.279
on everyone, smart talk all day
nine four five PTI in the Triad and

983
01:28:16.479 --> 01:28:23.359
one oh six one FM talk in
the Triangle. Oh no, we got

984
01:28:23.399 --> 01:28:30.880
some very sad news, very sad
news. Get my sad music here.

985
01:28:31.279 --> 01:28:36.359
Well, nope, that's not it. Hold one, that is wildly inappropriate.

986
01:28:36.479 --> 01:28:45.760
Right there, here we go.
It's um. It's not going well

987
01:28:45.840 --> 01:28:58.960
for Harry and Megan had some struggles, really victims of poor timing. According

988
01:28:59.000 --> 01:29:09.479
to this story, Yes, the
couple says that unfortunately the timing of their

989
01:29:09.520 --> 01:29:15.560
departure from their official royal duties to
America. All right, hold on,

990
01:29:15.760 --> 01:29:19.920
I can't let me usee right now. They gotta get all this stuff in.

991
01:29:21.000 --> 01:29:25.600
They say that circumstances beyond their control
to put a wrench in their post

992
01:29:25.680 --> 01:29:30.840
royal career. After losing their twenty
million dollars Spotify contract, the couple have

993
01:29:30.960 --> 01:29:35.720
been forced to fall back. This
next sentence is gonna make you angry.

994
01:29:36.319 --> 01:29:42.720
The couple have been forced to fall
back on their one hundred million dollars Netflix

995
01:29:42.800 --> 01:29:47.920
agreement to create shows and other content
with the streaming service. Except I think

996
01:29:47.960 --> 01:29:51.199
that they're not. And it's like
the same problem they ran into a Spotify

997
01:29:54.319 --> 01:30:00.640
But they say it's not their fault, they're just really unlucky. The couple

998
01:30:00.720 --> 01:30:06.760
believes COVID nineteen, economic downturns and
the ill health and subsequent deaths of both

999
01:30:06.760 --> 01:30:14.479
Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth hampered their
attempts to build careers in the private sector.

1000
01:30:15.079 --> 01:30:18.079
Do you think that's what it was
or do you think it's because they're

1001
01:30:18.199 --> 01:30:25.319
immensely unlikable and judging by what the
Spotify guy was saying, incredibly lazy,

1002
01:30:28.239 --> 01:30:33.199
Like maybe there's a certain entitlement mentality
going on here and I can't imagine what

1003
01:30:33.359 --> 01:30:39.720
that would have been bred from.
Also, they're currently rumored to be on

1004
01:30:39.760 --> 01:30:45.439
the rocks, though one of their
spokespeople denies that. Let me ask you

1005
01:30:45.479 --> 01:30:50.359
a question. Let's say and as
much as I find these two incredibly irritable,

1006
01:30:50.399 --> 01:30:55.079
I'm almost happier when they're together.
So they can't pollute other as segments

1007
01:30:55.119 --> 01:31:00.319
of society. But let's say that
they did fall apart, right and there's

1008
01:31:00.399 --> 01:31:03.079
kids involved, and I just I
don't root for that, But let's say

1009
01:31:03.079 --> 01:31:10.960
it did. What do you think? Do you think at some point Harry

1010
01:31:11.000 --> 01:31:15.680
goes, what the hell have I
done? Because I don't know that people

1011
01:31:15.720 --> 01:31:19.000
necessarily had a negative opinion of him. He was just you know, the

1012
01:31:19.079 --> 01:31:25.640
younger brother whatever. But everything that
we've seen come out since then, the

1013
01:31:26.079 --> 01:31:30.640
dude just annoys me. But remember
he relinquished his title. During the queen's

1014
01:31:30.760 --> 01:31:35.960
funeral, they had a gathering which
included world leaders and members of the royal

1015
01:31:36.000 --> 01:31:42.000
family, and they were uninvited from
it because they decided only working royals could

1016
01:31:42.039 --> 01:31:47.760
go. But you know, he
cashed us all in, said I'm done

1017
01:31:47.760 --> 01:31:53.479
with this, burned. A bunch
of Bridges wrote that book was also running

1018
01:31:53.479 --> 01:31:58.199
around claiming that members of the royal
family, two of which who have subsequently

1019
01:31:58.319 --> 01:32:03.600
died, were a bunch of racists
right over what color Megan Markle's baby would

1020
01:32:03.600 --> 01:32:11.479
be. All of this garbage just
burning Bridges left and right. So let's

1021
01:32:11.520 --> 01:32:15.119
say it does fall apart. He's
on his own and now he's just him.

1022
01:32:15.920 --> 01:32:19.520
He's not even part of this quote
unquote power couple. There'd be a

1023
01:32:19.520 --> 01:32:23.159
lot less interest. I don't know, if one hundred million dollars checks are

1024
01:32:23.159 --> 01:32:29.439
still coming in and he's given up
his royal title, do you think it

1025
01:32:29.479 --> 01:32:31.680
just hits him like a ton of
bricks one day if that was to come

1026
01:32:31.680 --> 01:32:34.359
to pass. And I wonder if
they'd even take them back. They probably

1027
01:32:34.359 --> 01:32:40.279
would. I mean, hell,
they let Prince Andrew keep working, so

1028
01:32:40.680 --> 01:32:45.319
standing the bar's not high man,
But it's just crazy. Now why am

1029
01:32:45.319 --> 01:32:50.359
I pointing this out? Because there's
this other story, and this contributes to

1030
01:32:50.399 --> 01:32:56.159
the unlikability in my opinion. According
to the New York Post, Prince Harry

1031
01:32:56.159 --> 01:33:02.079
and Megan Markle made a request to
hit hitch a ride back to America following

1032
01:33:02.079 --> 01:33:08.520
the Queen's funeral on Air Force one. So they called up their Biden buddies

1033
01:33:08.520 --> 01:33:14.119
and was like, hey, man, can we get a ride home on

1034
01:33:14.239 --> 01:33:17.800
Air Force one? To their credit, the White House said no, but

1035
01:33:18.039 --> 01:33:21.840
they think it was more having to
do with They thought it would strain relations

1036
01:33:21.880 --> 01:33:30.319
with the new king. But man, that is some audacity there that is

1037
01:33:30.760 --> 01:33:33.960
crazy. You just call, hey, can I hit your ride on Air

1038
01:33:34.000 --> 01:33:43.760
Force one. Of course, the
Biden's traveled over for the I was that

1039
01:33:43.840 --> 01:33:45.640
all the way back in September.
Holy cow, time flies, man.

1040
01:33:49.039 --> 01:33:54.079
But yeah, now they're just very
unlucky, just bad. You know it's

1041
01:33:54.119 --> 01:33:58.319
out, which you know is just
a hallmark of not being able to take

1042
01:33:58.399 --> 01:34:04.960
responsibility for any of your actions.
But I digress. All right, this

1043
01:34:05.000 --> 01:34:14.159
story is so weird, man,
Are you following this? Um? This

1044
01:34:14.359 --> 01:34:20.640
Carly Russell story. So. Carly
Russell, twenty five year old nursing student

1045
01:34:20.680 --> 01:34:28.439
from Alabama who went missing for forty
eight hours before returning home this weekend,

1046
01:34:28.920 --> 01:34:33.720
claims she had been abducted and held
captive and the story's crazy. She claims

1047
01:34:33.760 --> 01:34:41.399
she was taken after she was driving
down down the interstate or a highway or

1048
01:34:41.399 --> 01:34:45.520
saying, she's driving on the road
and she sees a toddler on the side

1049
01:34:45.520 --> 01:34:48.880
of the road, so she stops
her vehicle to get out, and it

1050
01:34:48.960 --> 01:34:58.119
was at that point she was abducted. Couple couple folks in a semitruck snatched

1051
01:34:58.119 --> 01:35:04.800
her up. Well. At a
press conference yesterday, the police in Hoover,

1052
01:35:05.159 --> 01:35:14.439
Alabama, revealed that Russell had a
rather interesting had their interesting search history

1053
01:35:14.960 --> 01:35:18.119
on the old Google. Again,
how do you people not know that all

1054
01:35:18.119 --> 01:35:24.479
this stuff, all the stuff you
search, it's right there. How many

1055
01:35:24.560 --> 01:35:28.039
cases have we heard where people are
at that guy who was married to the

1056
01:35:28.079 --> 01:35:31.560
real estate agent who disappeared, right, remember his searches where like one of

1057
01:35:31.600 --> 01:35:35.079
the searches, according to authorities,
was how do you dispose of one hundred

1058
01:35:35.079 --> 01:35:39.039
and thirty two pound body or something? Which is what his wife wade.

1059
01:35:40.640 --> 01:35:46.680
According to police, searches included amber
alerts, movie, the movie Film or

1060
01:35:46.720 --> 01:35:54.319
the film Taken, and many many
other rather odd searches, including how to

1061
01:35:54.359 --> 01:35:59.000
take money from a register without being
caught? One way bus tickets from Birmingham

1062
01:35:59.039 --> 01:36:05.359
to Nashville, several searches on the
movie Taken. Also, do you have

1063
01:36:05.520 --> 01:36:13.600
to pay for an amber alert?
What are there people under the impression that

1064
01:36:13.640 --> 01:36:20.680
the government charges for amber alerts.
Authorities also revealed that Russell took a dark

1065
01:36:20.720 --> 01:36:25.920
bathrobe, a roll of toilet paper, and other items from her place of

1066
01:36:25.960 --> 01:36:30.840
work hours before she vanished, stopped
at a Target store, purchased granola bars

1067
01:36:30.840 --> 01:36:36.399
and other snacks after picking up takeout
food, and then they revealed when they

1068
01:36:36.479 --> 01:36:41.079
arrived on the scene following Russell's nine
on one call, the items from work

1069
01:36:41.079 --> 01:36:44.199
and target were missing, though her
takeout food was still in the vehicle,

1070
01:36:44.720 --> 01:36:47.119
So there. I guess they're implying
that she was holed up and that was

1071
01:36:47.159 --> 01:36:54.520
her supplies. I don't know.
The department emphasized that Russell's drove six hundred

1072
01:36:54.600 --> 01:36:58.960
yards on the interstate while allegedly following
the toddlers she spotted on the side of

1073
01:36:58.960 --> 01:37:03.159
the road. Just craziness. Man, all right, let's get ray staging

1074
01:37:03.199 --> 01:37:06.319
from the weather channels. See what
he's up to. Right now? Do

1075
01:37:06.840 --> 01:37:13.640
do? And yesterday, obviously you
have three tornado Um, thankfully nobody killed.

1076
01:37:14.000 --> 01:37:16.840
I'm hearing from people down at that
Fizer plant that, UM, there

1077
01:37:16.880 --> 01:37:21.159
is some concern and this is unverified, but there's some concerning It would make

1078
01:37:21.199 --> 01:37:26.800
sense about some of the items that
may have been you know, sprayed about

1079
01:37:26.800 --> 01:37:30.760
when the tornado went through, and
what that might include up to it,

1080
01:37:30.800 --> 01:37:36.640
including some very restricted pharmaceuticals. So
I could imagine that's a security nightmare.

1081
01:37:36.640 --> 01:37:41.239
So what's up. Yeah, probably, UM, we don't see anything like

1082
01:37:41.279 --> 01:37:44.079
that coming in the short term,
and over the next few days they'll be

1083
01:37:44.239 --> 01:37:49.600
no changes hearing ray here. Oh
that's great dude. About all right now,

1084
01:37:49.640 --> 01:37:54.279
I'm not hearing We're having all sorts
of weird ray connection issues, so

1085
01:37:54.319 --> 01:37:59.640
that's just great. Um Ross,
can you confirm if you can hear ray

1086
01:37:59.640 --> 01:38:03.760
because I can't hear him on my
callback here? All right, great,

1087
01:38:04.359 --> 01:38:08.439
well, let me do this.
It is a forty five. We'll take

1088
01:38:08.439 --> 01:38:12.119
a break, be right back and
hold on. No rays calling in right

1089
01:38:12.159 --> 01:38:15.600
now, so let's go ahead and
do that. All right, Let's try

1090
01:38:15.600 --> 01:38:17.119
it on the phone here. Can
you hear me? Now? Yeah?

1091
01:38:17.199 --> 01:38:19.840
What's up? My man? Go
right ahead. I didn't know if we're

1092
01:38:19.840 --> 01:38:24.119
going the other way or whatever,
but you know, yeah, you know.

1093
01:38:24.239 --> 01:38:30.600
Unfortunately, sixteen injuries and damage and
a rare stronger tornado. Yes three,

1094
01:38:30.479 --> 01:38:32.560
Now, we don't see anything like
that over the next few days.

1095
01:38:32.560 --> 01:38:38.279
There are some showers and thunderstorms with
a heavy rainfall now coming over the Appalachians

1096
01:38:38.560 --> 01:38:43.600
and into western North Carolina. Flash
floor of warning right now for Severe County

1097
01:38:43.720 --> 01:38:46.800
in Tennessee and now getting into Madison
and Hayward County. Some of that heavy

1098
01:38:46.880 --> 01:38:51.520
rain should continue to weekend, but
the tryhead may get clipped this afternoon through

1099
01:38:51.560 --> 01:38:56.279
midday in this afternoon with some showers
maybe but a thundershower. I don't think

1100
01:38:56.279 --> 01:38:59.840
it's until tonight. We see a
better chance coming across from west to east

1101
01:38:59.880 --> 01:39:03.279
end triangle, so hot, humid, with increasing clouds west to east today,

1102
01:39:03.520 --> 01:39:08.199
maybe some showers leader showers from the
triad. Most get into the low

1103
01:39:08.319 --> 01:39:11.039
nineties and it's going to feel close
to one hundred. Chance of a few

1104
01:39:11.039 --> 01:39:14.000
showers and butter storms tonight, no
severe weather expected. It could be some

1105
01:39:14.039 --> 01:39:16.880
downpours and spots, and there lots
of sunshine around Tomorrow, hot and humid,

1106
01:39:17.079 --> 01:39:20.920
a little bit nineties of feel like
one hundred and upper eighties. Saturday,

1107
01:39:20.920 --> 01:39:25.119
we actually get a boundary through the
trust that octemperatures down a bit with

1108
01:39:25.279 --> 01:39:28.439
a light north breeze, so it
shouldn't be humid, and maybe some afternoon

1109
01:39:28.439 --> 01:39:31.000
showers and letter storms on Sunday.
Next week looks like later in the week

1110
01:39:31.039 --> 01:39:34.359
midwek we'll probably start to get back
into the nineties, so we do get

1111
01:39:34.399 --> 01:39:38.399
a little bit of a break from
the ninety plus that's going to be in

1112
01:39:38.479 --> 01:39:42.600
here today tomorrow, and even as
we get into you know, tomorrow night,

1113
01:39:42.640 --> 01:39:45.119
it will stay warm and humid,
but by Saturday, but feel a

1114
01:39:45.119 --> 01:39:46.800
little bit of a change in that
air mass. All right, thank you,

1115
01:39:46.840 --> 01:39:49.880
sir, appreciate it, and we'll
chat tomorrow. Okay, okay,

1116
01:39:50.000 --> 01:39:54.439
yep, all right, very good, and Jeff Bellinger joins us. Next

1117
01:39:54.479 --> 01:40:14.960
hang on one O six one FM
Talk and f w PTI, two stations

1118
01:40:15.039 --> 01:40:19.439
driving the best in talk. This
is Casey O Day and Carolina's Morning News.

1119
01:40:20.239 --> 01:40:25.359
All right, eighty two. I'm
sitting here. Are we doing this

1120
01:40:25.399 --> 01:40:28.880
phone or you know what we need? We need that guy's rejuvenator box from

1121
01:40:30.359 --> 01:40:32.000
my story earlier. A right,
we're gonna chat with Jeff Bellinger. Let's

1122
01:40:32.000 --> 01:40:33.800
see if we can get him comrades. If now, we'll get him on

1123
01:40:33.800 --> 01:40:38.199
the phone. Jeff, how you
doing? Yes, yeah, hey,

1124
01:40:38.239 --> 01:40:41.640
go right ahead, sir, all
right, good morning, Casey. I

1125
01:40:41.800 --> 01:40:45.760
just a note to Ross. I
am hearing myself in echo, but I'll

1126
01:40:45.760 --> 01:40:48.359
turn I'll turn you off and go
ahead and do the report. Wall Street

1127
01:40:48.439 --> 01:40:54.520
is coming off another obsession. Major
averages posted modest gains at midweek. The

1128
01:40:54.560 --> 01:40:58.640
gains range from less than a tenth
of a percent to three tenths percent,

1129
01:40:58.720 --> 01:41:01.119
but the now has moved up for
eight sessions in a row. That's the

1130
01:41:01.199 --> 01:41:06.800
longest winning streak since twenty nineteen.
The password sharing crackdown at Netflix appears to

1131
01:41:06.840 --> 01:41:13.159
be working. The streaming video service
added nearly six million subscribers in the second

1132
01:41:13.199 --> 01:41:17.039
quarter. In that topped forecast.
BOD Investors were disappointed by the company sales

1133
01:41:17.119 --> 01:41:23.680
forecast for the current quarter. Netflix
shares fell and after hours trading Tesla shares

1134
01:41:23.720 --> 01:41:28.560
were also down in late trading after
the electric vehicle maker warned it expects to

1135
01:41:29.439 --> 01:41:32.760
more hits to its profit margins.
So the NASDAC futures are pointing lower this

1136
01:41:32.840 --> 01:41:35.880
morning, but the Dow futures are
up fourteen points. We'll see if we

1137
01:41:35.880 --> 01:41:39.760
can make it nine in a row
for the Blue Chips. A lot of

1138
01:41:39.760 --> 01:41:44.439
homeowners with low interest mortgages have decided
to stay put, but those who put

1139
01:41:44.479 --> 01:41:48.079
their homes on the market in the
spring generally did well. ADAM reports profits

1140
01:41:48.119 --> 01:41:54.039
on home sales rebounded in the second
quarter. The median nationwide home price was

1141
01:41:54.199 --> 01:41:59.079
up ten percent from the first quarter
to three hundred fifty thousand dollars. Early

1142
01:41:59.159 --> 01:42:03.199
bird dinners no longer just for senior
citizens and radio people who work morning drive.

1143
01:42:03.600 --> 01:42:09.640
YELP Purports restaurants now seat twice as
many niners between two and five PM,

1144
01:42:09.720 --> 01:42:13.239
as they did in twenty nineteen.
The Wall Street Journal says it's a

1145
01:42:13.279 --> 01:42:18.560
trend being driven by remote workers who
want social interactive over social interaction, I

1146
01:42:18.600 --> 01:42:23.760
should say, after they close their
laptops for the day, and Casey,

1147
01:42:23.960 --> 01:42:28.119
be glad, very glad. This
is radio. The picture that accompanies this

1148
01:42:28.319 --> 01:42:33.359
Women's Wear Daily article is hard to
unsee, but designers in Europe have responded

1149
01:42:33.399 --> 01:42:41.119
to scorching summer temperatures by introducing men's
suits that come with short pants. Casey,

1150
01:42:42.039 --> 01:42:44.680
I just I can't even with these
people. All right, thank you,

1151
01:42:44.760 --> 01:42:46.039
Jeff, appreciate it, man,
Okay, have a good day.

1152
01:42:46.359 --> 01:42:48.840
All right, they go Jeff Bellinger, who I don't know that he can

1153
01:42:48.880 --> 01:42:51.399
hear me because he turned it down, but we appreciate it. But you

1154
01:42:51.439 --> 01:42:58.640
know, now I can hear me. All right, let me destruct through

1155
01:42:58.680 --> 01:43:01.920
this. Uh oh hey, this
is uh, this is going on right

1156
01:43:01.960 --> 01:43:06.760
now, and it obviously needs some
more coverage. So I don't know if

1157
01:43:06.800 --> 01:43:14.079
you've heard, but the um the
solidarity right going on with the actors hitting

1158
01:43:14.119 --> 01:43:17.279
the picket lines in their poor people
clothes. Look at you, Mark Ruffalo,

1159
01:43:18.680 --> 01:43:25.079
and uh, you know, telling
the production the production houses. Uh,

1160
01:43:25.279 --> 01:43:30.079
we're we're here. With them,
and we're on strike and we want

1161
01:43:30.079 --> 01:43:36.800
what we want, um, except
a flurry of exemptions has now been requested,

1162
01:43:38.319 --> 01:43:41.880
all right, So I had to
figure out how this works. So

1163
01:43:42.000 --> 01:43:46.479
basically, sag AFTRA or any of
the or the Writers Union for that matter,

1164
01:43:47.239 --> 01:43:53.199
they can on a case by case
basis provide an exemption to one of

1165
01:43:53.279 --> 01:43:58.720
their members that would allow them to
actually do work. Right. They got

1166
01:43:58.720 --> 01:44:01.720
to go through this process, and
there's a couple of ways you can trigger

1167
01:44:01.720 --> 01:44:06.279
it. One is as if the
financing is entirely donation related, which is

1168
01:44:06.319 --> 01:44:12.199
why the Chosen production of the TV
show The Chosen, which is in its

1169
01:44:12.239 --> 01:44:15.319
fourth season now, they were allowed
an exemption. However, a lot of

1170
01:44:15.439 --> 01:44:20.840
top level actors are requesting them because
they want to be able to go out

1171
01:44:20.880 --> 01:44:25.840
and not necessarily film, but they
want to be able to go out and

1172
01:44:26.000 --> 01:44:30.600
do promotion, which is a huge
core component of what they agree to and

1173
01:44:31.000 --> 01:44:38.000
is attached to their salaries and their
deals that they get for doing the movies,

1174
01:44:38.039 --> 01:44:40.800
so they will get you know,
let's say, if you're Tom Cruise,

1175
01:44:40.800 --> 01:44:42.840
who, by the way, is
apparently one of the people who ask

1176
01:44:42.880 --> 01:44:46.079
for an exemption. So if you're
Tom Cruise and Let's say you get paid

1177
01:44:46.119 --> 01:44:50.840
thirty million for doing the movie and
you get some executive points, right,

1178
01:44:51.520 --> 01:44:57.159
So based on profitability of the movie, there's more money to be made as

1179
01:44:57.199 --> 01:45:02.079
well as whatever your contractual obligation ations
are, which includes promotion. So now

1180
01:45:02.279 --> 01:45:06.600
actors who find themselves hitting the picket
lines, who are not able to fulfill

1181
01:45:06.680 --> 01:45:13.039
their agreements on the part of promotion, are in danger of not receiving their

1182
01:45:13.079 --> 01:45:17.359
paychecks. So that's why they want
the exemptions so that they can go out

1183
01:45:17.560 --> 01:45:26.640
and work and make their money or
risk because they risk forfeiting, you know,

1184
01:45:26.760 --> 01:45:30.359
pay for these movies that they've already
filmed in most cases for not doing

1185
01:45:30.399 --> 01:45:40.439
the required promotion. Um, so
you're not on strike, right, How

1186
01:45:40.479 --> 01:45:43.920
the hell does how does that?
How is that solidarity? My friend?

1187
01:45:45.520 --> 01:45:47.600
If if you're like, oh,
we got to do something because the writers,

1188
01:45:47.760 --> 01:45:50.439
right, they don't. They they're
not having the ability. The don't

1189
01:45:50.439 --> 01:45:55.359
because they don't have to do promotion. So if you're if you're one of

1190
01:45:55.359 --> 01:45:59.319
these Hollywood A list dudes down there
for about an hour for a photo up

1191
01:45:59.359 --> 01:46:02.079
to show how in solidarity you are, and then you have to leave so

1192
01:46:02.199 --> 01:46:06.359
you can go do work and promotion. So that you can get your millions

1193
01:46:06.359 --> 01:46:14.039
of dollars. How it's I'm almost
beginning to come to the conclusion there might

1194
01:46:14.039 --> 01:46:20.239
be a bunch of hypocrites in in
the Hollywood. I know, how silly

1195
01:46:20.239 --> 01:46:25.319
of me. All Right, Thursday
in the bag, there we go.

1196
01:46:25.520 --> 01:46:29.039
I'm gonna go smash all of our
equipment with a bat and uh we'll,

1197
01:46:29.079 --> 01:46:31.680
you know, maybe talk to you
tomorrow A good one.
