Yeah, good morning, you've got the halfway point. It is Wednesday here
on the KCO Day radio program, and tomorrow's February, and that's a short
month, so you can, in much shorter order be like where's the time
gone? But we'll get there tomorrow. For now, we got mourn enough
to round out this very first month of twenty twenty four, and everything's going
great. Oh hunky dory man. You know, we got a group of
migrants who pummeled NYPD officers in your Times Square yesterday or the other day,
and then yesterday they released it with no bond, Like if we can't agree,
those dudes need to go, especially the one dude who he has this
charge. And then also two robberies with force or robberies with violence. However
they do it up there Macy's and a Nordstrom's near Times Square because he got
all day, he's got nothing to do with the ring leader here, so
he goes in there, grabs something once and for good measure, beats the
crap out of the store security auct in both instances no bond, so yeah,
that's gonna end well. And then they just overridd some vetos. They're
doing some stuff in for the NYPD where they now have to document every interaction,
but not in the way that they normally would like if you're a detective
working on summer, you're an officer trying to gather information to figure out the
hell happened somewhere. In this instance, every interaction with the public is a
separate piece of documentation, and it's pretty thorough, and it is on the
officer's perception of that person's gender, age, and race, and then descriptions
as to justify why, so that they can monitor whether they are talking to
more people of one race than others, which and I looked, I'm not
sure how that works if you are if you're an NYPD officer and you patrol
Harlem or Crown Heights, or you patrol I don't know, well, I
guess maybe in your Central Park would probably be I'm trying to think of the
largest divide there or racial breakdown. I don't know how that works, because,
like feasibly, if you're doing neighborhood patrolling and you're in a neighborhood that's
seventy percent minority, I feel like they're going to have an outsized number of
run ins. But the city council members is like, yeah, I don't
worry, Everything's going to be fine. No, it's nothing. So I
would expect in very short order, Ross will be getting some more New York
accents on our call in line as some of those officers get the hell out
of there, And I don't blame them. That's crazy, but not as
crazy as this. This, this is something, this is up in Pennsylvania,
all right. There are things you can do and there are things you
can't do on stream correct and in fact, it's an ever changing landscape as
we just went through. I don't know if there's a name for it.
We just went through all of this this weirdness where women just want to figure
out how much of their breasts they could get on stream, and it took
a lot of paths. Like you had streamers that were doing this thing where
they had the camera level right at cleavage and almost down although they were wearing
something that covered it, but it didn't look like it. So it's theater
of the mind. Uh. Then you could have what artistic there was some
artistic thing, and then women were painting their bodies like I don't even know
where it's at right now, where is it ross. Can you paint?
You can just paint your top and stream now or do they? Yeah,
that's not a thing anymore. Okay they can't. They quickly said, wow,
this is out of control. We cannot trust you guys. Do we
do it one eighty on that one? All right? So you can't.
You can't do a body paintwise? Okay, can you still do the hot
things? You can't? Maybe they changed it again. I think the hot
tubs are fine. The hot tubs are fine. You're wearing a bathing suit,
right, No, no, no, no, under under understood.
Can you can you do a streamholding your father's severed head? I would probably
say that that would probably go against t us. Okay, I'm not sure
I would hope so hear me out, though, Like, because everything is
people trying to find loopholes. What if what if you're doing what if you
say you're doing Hamlet? Because really rights Shakespeare? Yeah, yeah, yeah
yeah? Is it Hamlet? Is it Hamlet or Macbeth. Hamlet's the one
where he's holding the dan's skull? Right, Okay, I'm not sorry.
I'm not a Shakespeare expert, but this wasn't it? According to authorities?
Thirty two year old Justin Mohan was arrested in charge with murder in Pennsylvania hours
after going online and ranting for fourteen minutes while holding his father's severed head.
Moan is not a fan of the government, not a fan of Biden administration.
But it sounds like we're just the government in general. Although what is
this? He did use the term globalists at one point, so there's that.
His father, who is a or was a federal employee. I'm not
sure. Obviously they had a tough relationship, but yeah, Moan in custody.
His father was found by his wife beheaded inside the home the trio shared
in Philadelphia. He charged with murder in the first degree, abuse of a
corpse, possession of instrument of crime with intent. I don't know what that
is. How the stream go or the numbers for the stream, well,
I didn't even get to the really juicy part. I don't know it.
It was raised after six hours, so it's not there anymore. It was
up for six hours. Can you imagine to being this a viewer of this
and being like that, can't be a real head. No, I slowly
realized that the comments bright is slowly realizing that, oh, my god,
he's holding his dad's head now, Moan asylum. Yeah, jeez, let's
see here Moan held up the father's head. At doesn't say how far in?
But that doesn't This doesn't even make sense. They left the word out
here, and I'm very irritated. He. Moan also encouraged other children of
our family, members of federal employees to also quote take their head. So
that's nice. Moan, who claimed many of his followers thought he was the
Messiah. You know, it's easy to get a big head doing that.
I bet doing this even right we've done, there's some there's some egos.
Man. I'm sorry, shit, I didn't even mean that as a pun.
But this dude's the Messiah. And uh, listen to this speaking of
loopholes. Uh. He also, after you know, pointing this out and
ranting for a little while, said that he is. Uh. Yes.
Moan said many saw him as the Messiah, and so he wanted to honor
those followers, and so he decided that he would take on the task of
being the new president. So he declared himself the new president and then implemented
martial laws. So we're under martial law right now. I don't know if
you're aware of this. Yeah, I know it looks you know, it
looks kind of the same as you're getting ready doing the go to work and
uh, you know, get your corral the kids and all the stuff.
Just know you're under martial law this morning. And is that does that work?
I thought to do the martial law you had to be the you know,
you had to be in charge. But I guess since he declared himself
and that was good of him in the sense that he thinks, he said,
people thinks he's Messiah, all he wants is the presidency. So uh
the fourteen minute clip again, uh, remained up for six hours. We're
being taken down. Doesn't say the view count. Yeah, there are some
clips here. I'm a little has I'm not going to play this dude's clips
now. I got to play this clip. I'm sure they're completely coherent too.
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. A lot of cool graphics on the
screen and all my emotes. And my father is now in hell. Hold
on, he used a green screen. Really technical. Now he's in his
bedroom. Oh really, Okay, they didn't even he didn't make his bed
either. My father is now in hell for eternity to said, those commit
trees in and betray others, occupy the lowest pits of hell for all time.
Blah blah blah. All right, doesn't if they had the part where
he's I'm president now, yeah, believe it or not. Some other family
members tell The Daily Mail that Moan had been dealing with some issues for much
of his life. It doesn't say what they what they were. I'm not
gonna read the other details here, but this is, dude, this is
what this is what this is the evilness of the internet. So in the
story it says he has siblings and we acted. The police said that they
wanted to notify all of the family members since the video was out there,
so they like they were devoting all these resources and apparently uh one or some
of his followers sent the video to his sister. Who are you? What
lowest life form piece of garbage internet troll? Are you? See? Remember
we did that story last week about the college kids that were like hacked and
they were sent a photo that sent him to the hospital. It was so
bad, Like, I can't imagine that happening. You open up some random
email and there's like your your father, your brother, is somebody being horribly
attacked, right right. Oh, I don't I don't know. I mean,
obviously, this whole thing's horrible, but I just can't. I can't
comprehend. Where you see this and you got you laugh at yourself, like
you know what I'm gonna do. He probably probably in some internet forum bragging
about it right now. Uh, yeah, I don't know, man,
he looks like he's got some Oh there's the Yeah, it looks like I
who knows. Oh, okay, hold on. In the clip, he
also went on to say he's offering a one million dollar bounty for top government
officials, including Bill Barr. Well, Bill barr is not in the government
anymore, Christopher ray Well, he is. Good luck with that one.
And by the way, where do you have a million dollars? I'm looking
at your bedroom, bro, I'm not judging. It's like my bedroom,
let's see. He also declared war on US postal workers, the Federal Reserve
ANTIFA. This thing is long anyway, that's just just horrific. And then
the added bonus of some other ah, here we go, all right,
mon who railed against a network of evil, said that he became he became
aware of how dirty things were when he worked as a contractor for Microsoft and
saw the company was of eighty billions and taxes. But now it sounds like
they said they don't have any record of them working for Microsoft, and he
also had had trouble holding a job due to some emotional issues. Sounds like
this dude sent one hundred letters to the FBI to try to uncover it.
All. Right, well, there you go, good morning. I'd get
that to you nice and bright and early this morning. Sorry to hit you
with it. That thing went way darker because I literally was reading it about
two minutes before we went on the air, two minutes before we went on
the air. Once again, I again, unless I hear keywords that relate
to me, I tend to ignore whenever there's a recall thing that's, you
know, out there. However, it was one line of the recall that
was issued yes yesterday on some Toyotas and Pontiacs, where I gotta wonder,
what the hell is going on? So it's airbags again, which has been
this long national nightmare for old Corollas, Matrixes and rav fours. Except they
don't even want you to bring it into the dealership. According to the recall
notification if you own one of the affected vehicles, and again, go look
it up. If Toyota Matrix RAV four Corolla of certain years, go figure
it out. You've probably got notified. Don't even drive them, park them
wherever they are and contact the dealership. They will either do work on site
or they will no charge take them to the dealership because they figured out that
the airbag might be a shotgun. Whoops, that's a problem. Ross,
You've got airbags in your It's like a low key fear of mine now,
like the the air bag is just going to go off in my face for
no reason. No, no, no, no, it's far worse than
that. Oh no, the details are far worse that. When I say
it's like a shotgun, I mean it. I will explain exactly what it
is there, the fear is, and we will together go how the hell
does that happen? So, if that is your fear, like it is
Ross's fear, prepared to be terrified. Sorry, I promise there's a happy
story in the stack somewhere. I will find it and we will do it.
And it doesn't have to do with the DC comic universe either. More
on that as well. Your news coming up. It's Cacoday Radio program eight
eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four Hang on, we'll be back.
I think it is six thirty five. Things keep going bonkers man over
at Disney. It's just it's one story after another within the park. I
was reading yesterday they were taking down that Star that Star Trek ride or Star
Trek Star Wars ride that they put up in like middle twenty twenty two,
and it was it was up for eighteen months and they're tearing it down.
Wasn't that like the largest investment they had made in a ride or something,
or maybe it was the totality of what they were doing. But the the
Star Cruiser or whatever the thing is. Did that bomb so much? I
know the hotel bombed, but did the rides bomb so much that Disney is
getting rid of those? I guess. I don't know what the hell's going
on with that, man. I haven't been down there. And now this
apparently you can't even go to Walt Disney World Resort and slap the teenage hostess
at the restaurant at the Grand Floridio. Really like a new policy, I
guess. I guess By the way, this dude should have known better.
John Monroe, sixty four, of South Carolina arrested and charged with battery after
an alter case. So here's I already I read it, so let me
just give you the reader's digest because it's long. So apparently they're eating at
Citricos, which is, like I said's the Grand Floridian, and it's it's
an upscale restaurant, so it has a dress code, and basically the dress
code is not that much. It's like, hey, could you not come
in here in flip flops and swim trunks? And this this group of four,
two husbands, two wives, they show up. This dude's three sheets
to the wind. Apparently his own wife is like, he's hammered and he
needs to go. We don't want to. So the hostess is like,
hey, sir, I can't seat you. I can seat them, but
I can't seat you unless you change. And he said, well, I'm
gonna wait here with them until you seat them, and she's okay, well
that's fine. You know, you muna sit out in the hall there or
whatever and talk to your okay. And then when it came time to seat,
he just walked in like they were seating. She's like, nah,
can't do that, so he slapped her. This dude is the vice president
of Hospitality, Sales and Marketing for Sea Pines Resort, which I've stayed at,
and that's in Hilton Head. That is really nice. So this dude
literally is one of the muckety MUCKs who runs a huge hotel. It's more
than just a hotel. It's a lot going on there. But this,
you know, this huge vacation destination that in many ways operators kind of like
the Disney and by the way, also has dress codes, especially when you
go over by the golf course to get into various places. But no,
he just he just decided he was going to slap her three times and it
slaps the wrong word. He he got in her face and then used the
palm of his hand to repeatedly smack her forehead while saying her name. Can
you make a visual out of that, because I visualized that immediately right out
there, smacking her forehead Susan, Susan's. I don't know that that's her
name. It doesn't have her name, Susan, Susan, Susan. Listen,
and he's smacking her forehead while she's doing while he's doing it. But
apparently he can't do that for what they charge for a room at the Grand
Floridian. Though maybe he thought he maybe, although what they charge at Sea
Pines wasn't cheap either, maybe he thought he could. This is why you
don't stay. You don't stay on property. No, it's stupid because they
charge you ridiculous prices. And oh my god, we look. Really,
we could buy a house and that's what we typically do. Well, rent
out a house for like five hundred dollars a week. Done. You're just
gonna say, I could buy a house for which you have to say five
hundred as opposed to like spending this ungodly amount of money. And it's the
worst. Man. What you think you're gonna get, you're not gonna get.
We've walked into one of these rooms before. We had a friend that
was staying, and I'm sure it's gonna be super nice. We walk in
it's like really tiny, like Murphy beds and stuff, and no, no,
no, no, you do, dude, do do dude? They
they had there's some travel bloggers. Uh, this doer, this travel blogger
dude that I I'll watch his stuff sometimes because he kind of has my vibe.
He wants to go places where he's not usually around people. He's not
gonna fall into all the big tourist traps, you know, kind of independent
or whatever, but just wants to just he he travels like I travel,
So I appreciate that. But man, I saw him go to Disney,
and I click because I'm like, why are you at Disney? You know
it's straight and he and it was because they put him up at this new,
this brand new hotel. They tore one down. You're thinking it's gonna
be super nice, and he's like, yeah, we're gonna get it,
and we have a corner suite. I think it was fourteen hundred a night
or something. Because he discloses what the costs are, and I'm like,
all right, well, let's see what you get there. It opens it
up and what was the turby just used Murphy bed. It's got a Murphy
bed. The room's so small that you can't move around in it with the
bed deployed. And then right, and the worst part is, you know,
at night, you try to go to sleep, and a lot of
these Disney resorts, it's you've got people going up and down the hallways.
You've got kids, you know, good luck getting some sleep. Whereas we
can be like, hey, for five hundred dollars a week, we get
our entire house and we can take a break from all the noise. And
if Lincoln's having you know not, this is when he was younger, so
he's sort of getting worse when it comes to a lot of these areas,
but so so now more so than ever. If we did decide to go,
we can only go and like you know, we'll go for like an
hour and come home an hour and come home because it's like too much for
him. So we need a place where he can chill out, relax and
it'll be quiet. One of these hotels would not be it. And for
that much money, there is no way. And I'm easy to make happy,
right like if you and like, if I need a place to crash
for some reason, I could sleep on your floor to sleep in bed,
I could sleep in a futon on the couch on a murphy bed. But
if if I'm spending five hundred to one thousand dollars a night, You've got
to be kidding me, there's no way I wouldn't. Uh, well,
what was I gonna ask so that, but it's not gonna change. See
here's the you know, Disney people think it's easy because they're like, oh,
well, it's easier to get to the park, like you take the
bus or the tram or whatever it is. We're like, no, thank
you. I'd rather get in my car, drive down what is it called,
uh celebration or yeah, celebration, Yeah, right down that road and
actually get to the part. It's not hard. I've stayed. I wasn't
at Disney, but I was at I was at the golf They have like
five golf courses. This is out there's not Disney courses. And they have
a replica of Saint Andrew's and and so. And you're right there. You're
in what's called Doctor Jones or Doctor Phillips or something. And I didn't realize
how close I was to the main entrance of Disney until I tried to go
down this road to like this restaurant. I'm like, oh my, what
have I done? But I was two minutes away from the gate, and
I was in a neighborhood right and it was quiet, and so yeah,
dude, if I could get an Airbnb in there, and I was going
to Disney. I do that all day over, staying at the fourteen hundred
dollars Murphy bed place. We were watching because Mark, he likes to watch
those Disney videos. There's there's a group this is family she's been watching forever
called the Trackers. It's Tim Trackers Trackers, Ok. Yeah, and it's
him, his wife and their kid. And so they always go to these
big resorts and these fancy cruises and everything is super nice. Like I think
they stayed at the discontinued Disney Star Wars Star Wars Hotel or whatever it was.
The crew, yeah, and it's obviously doesn't look like it's worth the
money. But they recently went to a place that's it's for servicemen and service
women and people in the military. And I can't recall it Disney's Disney,
Yeah, and I can't remember if it's free or if there's like a massive
discount, but it's it's for active service member. Is he in the military
or he is not. So people in the comments were freaking out because they
went there and they were like, oh my god, this hotel is not
like regular Disney hotels. It is poverty. Look at these amenities. Oh
we would never pay for this. And it's like, listen, if you
are if you're used to sleeping on the ground in Fallujah, and then you're
on like R and R and you get to go to uh to Disney,
plus you get to go to like a massive discounter for free. I can't
remember what it's called. Yeah, what the what the what the resort is
called? Is it a lean to or is it just like it's like a
regular hotel. Listen, man, it's nice, but it's not like a
typical Disney hotel, right, but it's nice. It's like you would stay
there. I wouldn't have an issue with it because you're going to the park
anyway. But they are going off and he's like people in the comments are
like, hey, you shouldn't be there right now. You can go if
you're invited by somebody. I guess this is what they did. They get
somebody's past, but they're like, shut your face, hold dude, you
have no right. What are you even doing there? What do you And
then you're you're criticizing it, you know, maybe because your standards are a
bit higher. How do you not research your hotel as a travel If I'm
going to stay out there. They were well, they were well aware of
what it was, which it made it even worse, and they just decided
they'd run it through their same old filter. Yeah, that's not gonna go.
Well, did they have a Murphy bed though? I think it had
regular beds? Wow, so you get a regular bed at the supposed to
the Murphy bed suppose four a day or whatever it is. It's a corner
sweet ross. It's got two winds. Oh, it's very nice, one
looking one way and one looking out another, totally different directions. So ah,
you're just jealous. Yeah. Now the dude, the dude who I
watch, I can't. I can't remember his name right now. I'm sorry
because it's not his name. It's that he's got a name for the channel.
But you say, he goes and like you could see in his eyes
how sorry he was. He deviated from his normal travel stuff where I think
the last one he had rented a private island in the Caribbean somewhere that you
can run for like twelve hundred dollars a night, and was doing that kind
of thing, right, and then he goes, oh, I'm gonna go
to Disney for fourteen hundred night So imagine coming from a private island to a
murphy bed in a corner lot, look overlooking where the gator eight that kid.
But what you're not really thinking about is after you leave your fourteen hundred
dollars hotel room and take a bus to the park, right then you get
you stand in line for two hours to write space Mountain or whatever it is.
So, I mean, have you considered that I've read no, I
rented a disabled person. Oh yeah, you're gonna burn in hell have fun
with that. Yeah. By the way, why was it I remember the
numbers? Why is it remarkably less expensive to rent a person for a day
than to sleep in a murphy bed at Disney. That's a whole other thing
entirely right there. Six forty five. Hang on. So we have a
little spy report here from one of our fine listeners who said that during his
time in the military, he stayed there. He said, it's not free,
it's a nice play. I've stayed there and it's super cheap. Oh
he's on the Okay, well, wonderful. But there's another little nugget of
info here, and I think it's important. Yeah, Corey, what's up?
Hey? Yeah, I was just I was calling him about that dad
Military result. It's called Shades of Green. I stayed there myself. It's
actually pretty nice. I mean it's minutes from the tram. I mean,
room rates are based off your rank for active duty and retirees, but standard
rooms are like one hundred and seventy four dollars a night, and it goes
all the way up to like the Mega Suite, which is like eighteen hundred
square feet with four of bedrooms and that's seven hundred bucks a night. Oh,
it's not a murphy bed one half of a room. Okay, that
sounds good. I looked at that. I looked at the link. You
said, Yeah, it looks nice. It looks fine. It looks like
a place that any family in North Carolina traveling maybe to the mountains or to
the coast would definitely because this guy I saw them playing golf there. They
got the water slide and all that stuff. It looks like a place that
kids would love. Man. Oh, it's great because it's it's still on
the it's on the resort property, but it's not like it's kind of off
the side, so you know, it's a lot more quiet less people there.
I mean there's the military had resorts and like Hawaii on the North Island.
Yeah, I was telling Ross this. I stayed. I stayed in
one of your military hotels before. When I was attending a retirement ceremony.
I stayed at the stayed at that motel on Seymour Johnson And yeah, yeah,
so I stayed there. It was down there for a retirement thing.
And there's a couple of rules like I had if I didn't like get back
to the base in time. Like I was like, yeah, you don't
get on and stuff like that. But I remember walking in there and it's
everything you need, right, It's just very basic everything you need, and
it was it was fine and it wasn't expensive. But I'm looking at this
thing. I mean it looks like a straight up resort that families would go
to. So and by the way, it's not owned by Disney. This
is the nugget. Who owns it the military government. It's yeah, the
military day Well, I mean, like Camp Zuni actually had its own beach,
right, And one cool thing about that. Every once in a while
you'll see like an amphibious landing. You'll see LAVs or aav come on the
shore. So it's just a lot less people there. Like that boat of
immigrants who landed down in San Diego the other day and it looked like Normandy,
did you see that? Oh Okay, that'd be I well, you'd
be fine. You're like, ah, now, I understand why the you
know, the bunch of dudes look like seals are about to land where I'm
at. But you know, if you're down at Carolina Beach and that happened,
you might have questions. Is you know, if you're a topsail and
that slows down, you're gonna have a lot of questions. But all right,
well then then these travel bloggers, uh just trashed the the military hotel.
All right, whatever, all right, man, thanks appreciate it.
Yeah, a good one. Yeah, yeah, it makes it worse.
Right, It's like it's a military hotel. So you're there and you're trashing
it because it as that live up to you. You go Disney Hotel standards
where if like I said, if you're like somebody in your leave or R
and R, you're like, this is amazing. This is seventies not free
either right now, but compared to you know, the Disney hotels, it's
a great deal, especially if you're on leave, but also like you're you're
complaining about it and you're blogging about it, and there's somebody you're taking up
somebody's room like you shouldn't. What are you doing there? Yeah, that's
a good point. And it's not even a raise awareness thing because it's not
like other people can just randomly go out and do it. And I'm sure
that the of I'm sure that uh members of the military are not just familiar
with their perk, but probably as Corey was just pointing out, there's there
are a few military resorts and hotels, and they're in some pretty nice places,
including adjacent to Disney, if that's where you want to go. Oh
wait, hold on, hold on, Oh no, oh my god,
Ross, did you see this? Apparently an errant scud missile has just hit
the trackers homes? No where did where's the scud? Who has scuds?
Still? Oh? Here comes an F five. We don't know who that
is. Oh well, that's uh, that's unfortunate, all right eight eight
eight nine three four seven eight seven four. Dude, everyone's sending me their
Disney resort. Yeah, now you have to Here's the thing. Inherently,
I would know and I've never even been to Disney. They said, I've
been around Disney to go not be a Disney, which is very tough because
the Disney traffic. But I would, I would. Everything's relative. So
if I'm booking a hotel in some place where it's ungodly amounts and it's a
very situational thing, just to what you know, everyone's there for the same
reason kind of thing, I assume that the room is not going to be
commensurate based on the price versus if I was just booking a hotel in like
downtown Charlotte or something, you know what I mean. So, so like
those expectations are there, and I guess Disney just banks on the fact that
people are gonna be like, well, we're at Disney. We're already here,
already frustrated. I need a bottle of Jack Daniels. The kids won't
shut up that. You know, people put up with it, and that's
a calculation. They seem to be winning because that's at least one part of
their business where they're not totally getting their butt handed to them. Our number
two, let's get things going. And I retweeted that video that I made
mention to our caller about and I sent it to rout Ross. You hadn't
seen that, but I retweeted it, does that not look like D Day
landing craft? Just the way they're just hitting the beach man that is.
And that's in La Jolla, California too, I said, San Diego.
It's La Joya, which actually makes it more special because that's a bit of
an enclave and there's a whole lot of real woke folk down there. Man.
They're probably less so than some of the La Ones, but still still,
especially that beach area down there, Oh my goodness, very nice.
And you just see this this boat come, you know, busting straight in
and it looks all I look at all the water canisters and fuel canisters they
had on board because they unloaded them for a photo here, and it's just,
you know, it's just a standard standard boat. But you know,
they heavily patrol. The Coast Guard patrols pretty heavily, because more than one
person's thought, hey, I'll just go out around that seawall. If you
ever go down to the southern part of California. There, the very southern
tip, they have a seawall that juts out. Obviously, they do have
a wall there, but they also have a park where you can like play
with people on the other side of the border, like weird built in games
and stuff. But then they have a seawall that goes out. Because it's
not their first rodeo, they know what's up so and then they have ships
patrolling and all that. Remember they caught a submarine trying to come through there,
so I'm assuming the reason they had all that stuff is they realized they
had to go way out They probably had to go way way out there,
and they and they also worked their way up the coast, as Laoya is
not literally right on the bottom there, so they were probably out there for
a long time. But you just see this boat just put up on shore
and they're off. Although somebody did they drop their shoe, so he's going
to need a new shoe. And then just hey, walk on in man
craziness. All right, just run the subject of hotels. Let me just
I'll just do this now, New Hampshire. New Hampshire is now the proud
location of a of what is called the diaper Spa. It's not the only
one, but it is the one I saw in the story here. The
diaper Spa which is a hotel catering to adults who like to role play as
children, is about the creepiest thing I've seen today. According to the website,
activities include cuddle time, changing time, which answers my horrible question from
yesterday, let's see coloring and story time. It's filled with stuffed animals,
cribs, high chairs, and lots and lots of diapers. I tweeted this
out yesterday. There's a picture of the giant diapers. Where do you get
diapers that big? I'm what they're saying. Those are adult diapers. No,
they're not ross. Those are clearly diapers that are patterned for kids,
right, because I would think so, yeah, yeah, I mean that's
the one they got like space motif on one and a little fuzzy bunny on
the other. But they have changing time there, which, by the way,
if I didn't know you had changing time, and if you do and
you didn't call it the hotel incontinental, I don't even know what you're doing
with your life. But still I will say this though it looks the the
room looks bigger than the fourteen hundred dollar Disney suite. Now, if they
don't come in and change you like maybe you know, and it was next
to Disney. The adult sized crib is pretty creepy as well. Oh no,
man, And I see people are going ah, groomers, and it's
like, yeah, I mean I understand that that's that, but like,
technically that's there's if some adult wants to go in and pretend they're five or
two or whatever it is, and other adults are around them, and some
other adult literally has agreed to change their adult none of my business. Well
it is because you mark, you put it up on the internet so people
would come there, so I'm going to talk about it. But Okay,
although I believe it or not, some of the community say that there have
been some issues as the spa. The diaper Spa is located adjacent to a
public park where children play, and there have been situations. Obviously, if
you have a house full of people who are pretending to be children and they
see swing set outside, I think the urge to go out and participate is
a strong one. And then parents are like, Okay, we're going elsewhere
because you've got adults out there in onesies or whatever. So yeah, that
sounds like that's going to go well. But again, it's probably not fourteen
hundred dollars in the room, looks remarkably larger. So you got that going
for you. An influencer going viral yesterday after speaking about declining masculinity, where
have all the men gone? Okay, all right, you know this is
Look, this is a topic of discussion. You demonize, you demonize everything's
toxic masculinity. You neuter men in pop culture and commercials for years and movies
for years, and and you create a society where some of the more manly
characteristics, which I guess if people people are gonna straw man this and be
like, oh, you mean, like, you know, punching women and
stuff. No, you know, that's not what I mean. But some
of those manly characteristics are essentially being bred out of society. That's I think
a lot of people are wondering, is this is this? Is this good?
I would tell you it's not good, but because you kind of need
dudes when there's for for a lot of a lot of reasons. Like you
see, I saw them doing man on the street. I guess women on
the street and they're asking a bunch of women do we need men? And
all of them are like nah. Now again, those are the ones that
they put in the video, but it was a lot of them, and
it's like, well, let's see, we do most of the day Jewish
jobs, So unless you're gonna be doing that and uh, and then just
go through one hundred other reasons. Uh, the influencer, what is what
is the influencer's name? Roz Gabby? Yeah, Gertrude. Why do I
not see it starts with a G? Right? The influencer? Yeah,
what is what is the influencer's first name? Oh? Gore Lock? Gorlock
the Destroyer And if you don't know who that is, check on this the
irony and well, let me play the audio and then I'll explain the really
ironic part of this, shall we? All right, let's go to gor
Lock. I don't I'm not a big fan of toxic masculinity or like whatever,
like the the norms, I guess, but I like when there's just
like a little bit of that, like I'm the man and I'm gonna take
charge, you know, like because like why not, you know, I
feel like a lot of boys need to start being boys though, like when
it comes to like the male world, because a lot of men nowadays are
expecting princess treatment, and then it's like, okay, well I want that
energy just as much as but as bad as you do. For example,
like let's say get a flat tire on the side of the road and we're
together, you better know how to change that tire, Like you know how
to do these things, because if I have to call my dad just like
I said, no, no, sorry, sorry, babe, All right,
all right? What you know the irony is is Gorlock wrong? Ross?
Is Gorlock wrong? I don't think Gorlock's wrong. No, I don't
think I don't think Gorlock is wrong. Now there's a couple of things you
need to know. Uh, that's a dude. Gorlock is was born male,
identifies as female. I'm not sure the surgical situation. But so that's
where one of the men went right, So it's not really ironical, it's
more hypocritical. Yeah, well took one out of circulation. Yeah, but
I think Warlock speaking to the societal need to like pull a lot more than
one out of circulation, really, like you know, beat it out of
men to do that. By the way, would you stop and help somebody
change the tire? Would you along the freeway? Would you do it if
it was just a female. I did ever tell you about my reaction when
I was in sant when I when I first got to Santa Barbara from Wyoming,
so I saw have Wyoming plates on my truck. I'm down there and
there is on the on the one O one which runs right through Santa Barbara
on the way from downtown out towards you see Santa Barbara. I'm just I'm
just puttsing along on this thing, waiting to get off there, and there
is there are two women that are on the side of the road that are
clearly struggling because you can see them like frustrating. And and by the way,
traffic's moving very slow because it always does through there. So I'm creeping
up and I'm watching and they are They're clearly struggling with getting uh, lugs
loose. They have the car jacked up, which that's a whole other thing.
You want to get the lugs loose then, but whatever, And I
pull over literally behind them because I have that truck has a it's got a
toolkit in it. It has like a big tall jacket. I mean,
it's it's a it's a ranch truck loaded up man and I pull over there
and the one woman's fearful, she's looking at me like I'm a crazy person,
and the other woman did kind of like move closer. I was It's
like we're fine, We're fine, We're fine, And I'm like, all
right, I just got back on the highway. And it was just such
a weird reaction because in Wyoming, if you saw somebody broke down, they
quite literally it could be life or death. You could be so far in
the wrong situation from anything. I'm talking like, you can drive at night.
You can drive one hundred miles and not see another car coming the other
way. In some places, that's not an exaggeration either. So if you
saw somebody broke down and night was coming, or it's cold or something,
and you didn't stop, I mean, like we we were taught that that
was akin to assisting in whatever harm befell them. So my icy in that
was kind of the eye opening. I'm in southern California, now, what's
going on? But I also think the other reason that Gorlock doesn't do it
is I don't feel like if Gorlock leaned down to do the lugs, Gorlock's
coming up. What No, it's tiring. Is that what it is?
Exactly? No, it is, it is it is. Now how would
you overcome that and give yourself more energy? Well, I know some of
you would be like, Ah, what I'll do is I'll go get some
protein. Right. In fact, that's Russ, that's you, that's you.
Right, I was just talking a second ago. Could I had a
mouthful of beef jerky? Ah, yes, I love jerky man, Oh
it's so good. But yeah, no, but you're on You're you're the
protein. You like the protein. Right. I could talk about protein and
take for hours. I know that you've gone to the gym for the last
year and a half. Like I started on milk, started on milked.
That was five minutes of my before showtime. He's not wrong. And that's
why the body could only use twenty five grams, you know for muzzle synthesis
and anything even serving. The rest goes to energy because the body doesn't waste
it. Like for hours, I could talk about So I got this bruise.
I was banging my head against metal pole there so uh any who I
I throw this in here because uh, yesterday Vice decided they were going to
do a takedown. All you evil protein people. Yes, that's right.
Vice. Uh, you're probably you're probably eating a lot more protein than you
need. Americans are obsessed with protein. They eat a two times as much
as the federal governments recommended daily allowance, which again as the government so uh
and uh. They say that the sixty percent of US adults are trying to
get even more into their diets. Excessive protein consumption is making us sick and
wrecking the planet. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm going to pass on that information,
but I appreciate the effort. Thank you for the planet, bro.
And you're making yourself sick. Yeah, but I'm not seven. How horrible
you feel compared to the ross two years ago? Die would say that is
inaccurate. Okay, if you want to lose weight, the best thing you
can do is strength train and also like make sure your protein intake is good
every single day. If you want to build muscle, you need at least
one to like one point five grams of protein per pound of body weight.
So like right now I weigh like two o two, I would need like
two hundred and two grams of protein a day on top of the strength training
to put on muscle. Do you know what the recommended allotment of protein.
But I would I would say the minimum you should probably have every day is
like sixty five to seventy grams. Oh no, I'm sorry, it's fifty
fifty grams. Like on days that I that I don't go to the gym,
I got rest days, I do like one hundred and sixty five to
seventy grams. But on like actually active days, it's like you know the
two O two. Yeah, the government among their recommendations, which by the
way, these are the same folks who recommend seven to eleven or six to
eleven. Excuse me, Oh no, I got hiccups. Well, the
protein solve that you need you eat up to eleven servings of carbs and it
should make up the majority of your diet. Right. We were brought up
on that in the eighties. We were brought up on that stupid food pyramid,
which is complete bold like you look back at it now and it's you
know, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna pass on that, thank you,
But I appreciate the effort. Meat, milk products and then fats, oils
and sweets are the three knotty zones of the pyramids. Vegetables and fruits,
Milk and milk. Bread is the bottom. Milk and eggs are like the
greatest food ever. I like eggs. I don't drink as much milk as
I probably should, but I I'll kill So there was a buffet over the
over the last weekend. They had the hard boiled eggs. And if you
got a buffet and they got hard boiled eggs, I might take the bowl.
It's so funny they're saying, like fifty yeah, because my breakfast is
at least sixty grams of protein every morning, sixty to seventy. And I
will say, since they've started doing this, I'm full the rest of the
day, Like I'm not hungry the rest of the day. I have to
force myself to eat that remaining protein the rest of the day because I'm so
because the protein does the job in the morning. By the way, these
guys are full of crap, and you and I both know that they're concerned.
They're driving concern on us is the animal rights, environmentals and the planet
stuff. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what this is about.
This is they don't care. Vice doesn't care whether you're healthy or not.
They care that you're not some ogre is making it more difficult for them to
get whatever moon bat you know, fever dream they want. That's what this
is about. So but yeah, so they just want you to know,
and it's just everybody's just mocking them. And then also the uh you know,
there's the part where they're like, ah, so well the government says
right, so there is there is that because they're never wrong. No,
that's true, not a well, no, they are like some things,
but not when it comes to health issues. What you want to do,
just sit on your couch all day and just just pixie sticks and carbs,
that's what you want. Can I snort them? Or do I have to
like it like you're an elf? I'm gonna be Tony Montana to be great,
all right, I gotta I gotta take a break. I'm approaching it
from the media numbers and not just inherently what happened to you guys. So
it's gonna be it's gonna be clear. Look no further in the city of
Detroit. So the the ratings for the AFC and NFC Championship game were ridiculous,
between fifty five and sixty up to sixty four million at times. For
the AFC and I take up to sixty million for the NFC. But market
breakdowns, and this is this is where Ross and I swim because we're going
to talk about things like shares and things like that. But you need to
know. You need to know that in the city of Detroit, the NFC
Championship game, the one that they were leading by seventeen, so you just
know a spark of hope was likely ignited in a hopeless fan base. They
had a seventy nine share. To put that in perspective, Now, when
you say share, what you're talking about is you're talking about people who were
in fact engaged in consuming media. So if some guys out mowing his lawn,
that doesn't count to share. But you can calculate what percentage of the
population that is half. It comes out to about half when you look at
the night total total actual viewers and then a number of people within the that
particular media zone media market. Half. That's a record or a modern record,
because you got to go back to when there was three channels. I
guess so half of the city of Detroit, half of every person over six
or over they do it six plus if you were six years old or one
hundred and six. There's a coin flip chance you were watching Detroit Lions squander
that seventeen point lead. Brutal Man absolutely brutal. I was saying, like
the media numbers would have been absolutely ridiculous if you had like allions against the
Bills. I I just have no interest in watching Kansas City in San Francisco.
I have zero interest. I have this Yeah, I have this feeling
though, like I would be concerned, like like your fan base is would
have like, you know, the the Bills, you got the Bills Mafia,
you'd have like the Bills Navy, so you go beef with the because
the Buffalo's media share is always pretty damn big too, because like there's it's
like that and snow like and you know that gives you hope and I think,
yeah, that's where Superman revealed himself. Bro, that's a famous Is
there even a sign there? I bet there's not even a sign. I
mean, just to watch that because you know, some one team's walking away
with their first championship be like a huge deal, like two underdogs. Yeah,
and obviously San Francisco's got some rings, but it's been a little wise,
it's been a minute. So there's that, but no, I'm with
you. It's I would and you know what, even though Baltimore is won
Super Bowl, I would have I would have preferred to see Baltimore and not
just because of the Taylor Swift thing. But the thing is like I didn't
used to care at all about Taylor Swift. I was indifferent. It was
like whatever, I'm just so sick of, Like it's another personal It's like,
oh, you hate strong women. It's like, no, I just
it's over situation. It's like Star Wars thing. It's too much of it,
so I don't care about It's like and then you can start to hate
it, like I can't stand seeing this person go away. Yeah it's and
but then people I see all these and then I see all these idiots too,
or like these conservatives out there that are you know, penning these missives
that are about conspiracy theories and she's she's a she's a clone or you know,
going off, and I'm like, what I see most people beefing about
is two things. One that uh that if it enhances a platform that she
is utilized to speak out against their what they think politically, so inherently if
somebody is always going against what you want and they have a huge platform.
You're probably not gonna be a huge fan of them. But again that's fine,
that's yeah, it's a it's a free country. But the other thing
is too is if you feel as though a product that you do and a
way is changing and they're doing it. Yeah, because we see this all
the time. How many fan bases have been disappointed by big corporations in the
last ten years? What was trent was trending most of the day yesterday,
Yeah, like nearly all of them, nearly all of them, because you're
destroying what we love, like you're you're insulting the fan base. Yes,
So you know, people feel that there's it's a handful of wing nuts who
think that there's a you know, a secret military base under the stadium and
it's all as ssyop, right, And then but then I see like quote
unquote conservatives out there like Eric Erickson, who's a massive tool by the way
out there. Have I mentioned that before? Ross? Have I mentioned you
have? Yes? Okay, make sure uh who's out there and he is
he's doing what the left is doing, where he's putting everyone who might have
beef or any complaints into this box that there's some wild conspiracy theorists. And
it is what the left does on issues where somebody is bringing up a very
interesting point and they straw, man, we need to do more at the
border. Oh you want gator pits. Well, now that you mention it,
but no, that's not what I just said. I posted about the
inequality I feel is going on with the Roley Christmas Parade and the Palestinian protesters.
Right one is months in advance, with all the safety mechanisms possible,
is out there applying for a permit to do a thing that they've done for
eighty some years, and they get beat down, they get told no,
and then they get a little bone thrown to them. Another group, at
the drop of a hat can get a full police escort and security detail,
like it is a parade. And I pointed that out that I felt,
look, how can you have this policy and then and operate in that way.
It's insane. And there was some moon bad in my comments. She's
like, oh, you want them all arrested? Bah, And I'm like,
I didn't say that if breaking the law, you should arrest them,
but but for the purpose of this discussion. I just said, why,
if you're gonna do this, why make a big stink out of that?
It doesn't make sense. Now. I did see somebody and made a Taylor
Swift argument, which I thought was at least a good faith argument. And
I'll I'll tell me what you think, Taylor Swift? What is she famous
for from a relationship perspective? Being awful at them? Being awful at them?
And who does she normally date? Like? Effeminate male pop stars and
or actors? I think she's an actor was one of her more recent Yes,
right, but you know effeminate dudes. Well, I don't know if
I called John may Or that maybe a little, but still all right,
So who's she dating? Now? You would not describe Travis Kelsey as an
effeminate dude, would you? I meaner, bro, Well, I understand
that, and that's and again no, no, no no, and I
and I understand that that's but I but just purely from who she chose,
right, it's not right right? Right? And male sports dude? Yeah.
The argument was that it it, it bolsters, it fortifies your your
outlook, and specifically because you know there's this uh you know the idea that
men real men, that's what women want. They want real men, they
don't want this effeminate nonsense, and so like justifies your worldview. What's your
problem? And you know what, I think that's not that's an interesting argument
because it's not you know, it's not straw man, it's not any of
this. I don't necessarily think it's one hundred percent accurate. I think you're
I think she would just as gladly date an effeminate male pop star. Again,
do you know what I'm saying? But but I don't know. Maybe,
but not. Everything just gets stupid. It gets stupid real quick.
All right, speaking of stupid, No, no, I'm sorry. I
was not. I was gonna perfect though. I was gonna tease the story
was it was, I promise. I was going to talk about the judge,
the Elon the Elon Musk compensation ruling that we're going to. That's that's
my bed. That was it your bad universe. They didn't push the button,
did you? Or did a higher power? Have you pushed the button?
Yeah? That's the higher power? Yeah? Yeah, right. Remember
we learned this week that sometimes God will tell you to do a pump and
dump scheme on your congregation, so of of a bitcoin or whatever. It
was. So, dude, did you see that story? I did not.
His pastor and his wife. They're sitting in a magnificent mountain lake house
in the in the this huge window, and it just had like three hundred
thousand dollars in renovations. And it was because they made a cryptocurrency and they
got their parishioners to invest in it and then uh, and then they're like,
oh, we're gonna use this for land Rover and Homer model and all
this. But they said, God hold him to so h sometimes he wants
you to run a crypto pumping dump. So what why it doesn't tell me
to ever do anything like that? It was. It was beyond blasphemous there.
But anyway, all right, I'm sorry you got called stupid, but
yeah, no, it's fine. I've been called worse stuff. Yeah I
will. Here's how smart I am. If you're getting wet right now,
it's raining, how's that? And there is some rain up basically from about
the weather I have, believe it or not. I don't have a weather
rock. I have a weather stick, but same principle, the stick is
wet raining. Yeah, from Sandford and down just west of Fayetteville, there's
this little patch of showers or some also east of Greenville, heading out near
the outer banks around the triangles. Some maybe spotty shower too, but the
Triade looks like you've dried out and out in near Charlotte. All these showers
are just beate it all go away before lunchtime, and believe it or not,
we're starting to see some clearing to our west, and that'll get in
here upper forty, about normal. The normal high for everybody's pretty close to
fifty. Then milder for the first couple of days of the new month Tomorrow
upper fifties. Friday, low to mid sixties. A beautiful Let's just call
it Varmint Day because I had whether it's a groundhog or whatever people are doing,
we've become so worldly that you know any kind of animal I guess now
that you put out and say, well, if it sees a shadow and
runs back inside, whatever, But either way, it looks sunny here,
and then over the weekend it's going to be real nice temperatures a little above
normal with sunshine, mid upper fifties, and then it'll start going downhill.
A little bit for Sunday night, Monday and into Monday night, we've got
some rain and temperatures are going to be nearer above fifty. So it does
look like after a pretty dry week this week, mind it's rain today,
we'll get back into some wet weather by about Monday, but gorgeous starting this
afternoon, probably right through the upcoming weekend. You know, ironically, you're
absolutely accurate when you say varmint. In the state of Wyoming, anything that
is quote considered a varmit, you can you don't need a hunting license,
you don't even need to be from Wyoming, so you can go out prairie
dogs uh uh, rock chucks we call them in Wyoming, but you have
another name for him. Huh. They use them to predict weather, but
in Wyoming you can just go plink them off rocks. So well, and
if there's if there's such prognosticators, how do they not see it coming because
they just sit up on the rocks right And in Wyoming, is it any
varmit that sees the shadow runs away? You say, six more weeks of
winter, you have you have designated I'll tell you what runs away in Wyoming
when it sees a shadow. It's an animal when it sees my shadow.
Yeah, cast along the end of the right. Yeah yeah, they're like,
oh man, there's case. We gotta go. Anyway, all right,
I gotta I gotta roll Roster, wait do you have you're my wyoming
music? Ross? I would tell these stories that Ross would start playing music
over it. It's funny as hell, dude. Anyway, all right,
we got to roll, thanks man, Okay, yeah, oh they were
doing yeah yeah. And then back in my day, when the animals would
see a shadow and they determine it was mine, they'd be off, it's
Gonado. They'd run because they knew what was up. Bears, perry dogs,
it didn't matter. And that's the way we liked it. So there
you go. And then normally he'd play a goat bleep because he thinks that
funny. But anyway, all right, we got it. Thanks, Yeah,
no worries. Oh dude, what is going on? Seven eight?
Hang on? Among the younger set, they have they've discovered this really really
great music and it's but it's remix. It's mixed into house music, and
uh, the the kids just can't get enough of it. So what groundbreaking
artist has come out and is ripping up the earwaves, or at least the
house genre. Creed Man the absolute worst generation ever till I ever exist next
to Nickelback. Don't tell him, don't tell him. We'll mix him.
Hey, I got to hear this new stuff. You guys want to be
a rock star. I know you do. I destroyed a card because of
that band. You did. I'm sure you didn't. I was driving down
the road. I was in a jeep Patriot and Creed came on the radio
randomly, and I immediately pulled over the side of the road and set the
car and fire because I don't negotiate with terrorists at all. I will not.
Hey, it fell back. I had to do what I had to
do. Yeah, I mean, you got it. That's one way to
solve that. I guess. I think Scott doesn't Scott's staff is. Isn't
he in a movie coming out? Some big movie. I think he's in
some big movie because they need somebody who could sing. I can't remember what
it was. He's playing some famous somebody, some famous singer. But I
think maybe may maybe he won't do that. Now that the kids are all
they're like, man, this music's great. He told you about the time
that he relieved himself at a record dinner. Uh no, No, I
missed that one. I think that's the thing. Ad like, he's like
the restroom and then he went to the restaurant. Yeah. Like, Ray
had a major drinking problem, and that's one of the reasons I guess the
band went away. And then people were like, oh man, this creed
kind of sucks. And he was at a record I think it was back
in two thousand and four, two thousand and five. My brain's a little
hazy. I think it was in Salt Lake, and he was trying to
make like, you know, come back and be like, Hey, we're
gonna be a big band again, We're gonna get in the mainstream again.
And he was at this record meeting with my program director at the time and
the record rep whoever the hell it was, and they were at a restaurant
and he just got up in the middle of the restaurant, walked to the
corner of the restaurant and Pete in the corner. Didn't Ozzy Osbourne get up
on a table and you're innate. I don't know. I'm not even gonna
look that up. Just because I know I heard that one time, and
I'm sure it's true. I think, yeah, yeah, yeah, it
was, but I think it was at the label's office boardroom or something.
I'd be disappointed now that didn't happen. Yeah. Oh man, oh it's
crazy. Oh I just realized I forgot something. I was telling you about
the Toyota recalling all that over airbag issues, and I said, what caught
what I caught noticed of is it's Toyotas and pontiacs. Look it up.
See if you're in there, and it is, because they're like, don't
even bring it in the dealer, don't get in there, do not drive
it anywhere, don't bag it into your garage, don't take it out of
your garage. Just call us. We may we have some where people come
out and fix it on site, or we may, at no cost to
you, tow it to the you know, flat beded over to the dealer
to fix it. And it's it's horrible, like if you're already somebody who's
a little nervous around airbags, even though you tell yourself that's not necessarily reasonable,
but then you remember that they had the largest recall of anything ever and
it was an automotive and it was those air bags over the course of years.
So what happens is there's a little cap over the air bag that is
made of metal and it apparently if it gets you know, more than about
five years old, it sometimes breaks into a bunch of shrapnel. And then
when your air bag deploys, you have front loaded buckshot. So that's horrible.
You're not just getting a random air because like that's the that's people's concerned
that just it'll randomly open up. No, no, no, it's going
to open up and double lot's going to hit you in the face. So
so yeah, how does that happen? Glad to have you along here in
our number three phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four
Ross. We have some breaking news and uh, let's go ahead and do
this. The White House has announced that Joe Biden is headed to Palestine.
That's pretty that's crazy. Huh. I hope he wears his hard hat.
Uh well, ironically he will be because he's not going to the Middle East.
He's going to East Palestine. Ohio, Oh you know why? You
know what he's going there? He's going to be so confused. Way That's
what I'm just like, I please make sure that you draw, you delineate
this. But East Palestine, ohio, U is uh the the one year
anniversary of the train derailment, which his administration did such a great job with
obviously, and Pete Boodhagic and everybody else. Uh so uh yes, So
he's finally he's finally visiting there. And again, you know how I feel
about, Hey, you know this, this, oh, this thing just
happened. Why isn't the president there? Because there's the logistics of it are
a nightmare and I get it, but you have to then, like you
know, Bush got criticized for just flying and not landing, but you know
they still whether you agree with it or not, they every day they were
pounding on on this and what we're doing. Remember the FEMA director dude who
got fired, the brown or whatever anyway, so they they were all up
in it, the train derailment thing, like they were actively like Noah,
it's fine, No, it's fine. Oh no, the water it's great.
And you could almost get that famous like Aaron Brockovich scene where where she's
like she's like I brought the water from the wells and Hinckley or whatever like
you you they were pulling some weird stuff out of there, and then everyone
was like, oh no. The media is like, no, it's a
conspiracy. If you think that fish didn't have six eyes, you've never seen
a six eyed fish? What's wrong with you? So, yes, he's
headed. He's headed. That Away Box reached out to East Palestine Mayor Trent
Conaway to find out when he thought the most helpful time would be, because
that is literally how it was described, and the mayor said, quote,
in my personal opinion, the best time for him to come would be February
of twenty twenty five, when he's on his book tour. So it sounds
like the mayor is holding a little bit of a grudge there. Man.
He then said, quote, the President's always welcome in our town, adding
that being said, I don't know what he would do here. Yeah,
so that's that's the thing that's happening, I guess. So now, you
know, all right, get back over to this. You got a little
sidetracked there. This what's going on in Durham. Let's talk about this for
just a moment. You probably if you listened to the news, you may
have you know, seen or heard something about this. You got was it?
Eleven schools? Eleven schools closed today and it's the result of a sick
out. Got a bunch of bus drivers and other folks there who are like,
I don't feel well, and we all don't feel well. We're not
coming in. So what's the beef? Because I've heard it described as a
pay dispute, and that's kind of accurate, but yeah, I think it
also leads people to have an inaccurate understanding of how we got here. It's
not a pay dispute in the sense that they haven't got a raise for ten
years and they're just and enough is enough, and now that's what this is
about. That's not a new thing. What actually happened there is the school,
going back to last year, was paying all of not all of their
employees, but a bunch of the employees they're including the drivers. They were
paying them more than what they were owed. They were over paying them,
and I guess, I mean somebody had to notice. I don't know all
the behind the scenes stuff, but they were paying them more than they were
contracted to get, which in the case of bus drivers, is not a
lot of money, right. That is It's crazy how little we pay bus
drivers compared to other states. And I think a lot of it has to
do with North Carolina had you know, they had kids driving by that high
school kids driving buses back in the day, and you kind of make that
transition there. But and now the district wants to pay them what they are
contractually owed, which would result, I guess in a pay cut in the
sense that you've been being overpaid. I do not believe they're asking for the
money back, but they're just saying, hey, we're now going to go
to the rate that you're supposed to be paid. And they try it the
first time, they say they're going to do it, this happened. And
then they I think they allocated like five million dollars so they could continue to
overpay them. And and now this is this is where we are. So
yeah, there's I and I don't know, man, one couldn't happen to
a group of nicer folks. Those are it's all DEI sikkaphats on on that
board. So everybody fighting for the little guy. But and you, like
you can't even figure out how to pay people properly, which I don't know,
feel like is kind of a big deal considering it's your single largest expense
by far of running the school district. Personnel probably should get that one,
right. But yeah, so it's not as simple as they're just asking for
a raise. They you know, and they probably want a raise, and
who knows may even deserve a raise. A lot of people deserve raises that
have been just absolutely stagnant for years and years, and now everything costs more.
But that's not what this debates about. It's about you were being overpaid.
Now you're not gonna be overpaid. You're gonna be paid correctly, and
you're still doing a stick out. So if I guess we've got a kid
over in the district, at least now you know there's a little a little
more to that story there. Okay, all right, let's grab a couple
of phone calls. Oh wait, also, well hold on, let me
read an email real quick. Ross, we've irritated somebody. Now. I
don't understand the hate for Creed. I mean, I don't follow him around
or anything. But they've got good songs. Bullets is a good song,
then get a lot of play, and Nickelback isn't bad either, So all
right, listen, to whatever he wants, sir, Just know that Ross
destroyed a vehicle, and after he had he was forced to set it on
fire. After it came on the radio. He had to destroy vehicles.
So yeah, I'm sorry. I actually had the wrong information. Last time
I brought that up. I said it was the Patriots. Actually the twenty
nineteen Lambeau. Oh no, yeah, I got the Lambeau in the Patriot
confuted. I was driving the lamb Bay look right, you know. Yeah,
And actually all my guns were in the loomb. Oh. I was
just gonna ask for the guns in there. Oh Man, driving to work
and all of a sudden there comes up on the radio. You have to
pull over, pull over the side light your car and fire. Do not
negotiate with terrorists. Yeah, we'll not bend on this. It will not
break. Oh well, one of our audiences he's got. Well then,
sir, we tweeted out the the updated gen Z discovers Creed. We now
have a generation that knows Creed, but not the Holocaust. I mean yeah,
I say, listen, man, and I've said it. You know,
if there wasn't Creed, there wouldn't be Nickelback. But I'll go even
further back and say, if there wasn't pearl Jam, there wouldn't be Creed.
And I like pearl Jam back in the nineties, but pearl Jam was,
and then Creed was, and then Nickelback was. I saw the same
thing. But it's like, you know, you could put an album en
Z would love you, right, they could remix that. But thing is
like, it's like, you know how every time you could copy the copy,
it gets worse. I think that's what happened because you know pearl Jam.
And I'm gonna say this, and somebody's gonna call in with some obscure
thing. But for most of the most of the world, pearl Jam was
unique. Remember remember pearl Jam Nirvana era was embrazy. Yeah, man,
list of how unique their two sounds were. And yeah, the definitive sound
of the nineties. Yes, oh, no question, no ques, watch
any nineties rom com it's nothing but pearl Jam. There's nothing a Pearl Jam.
There's a little Creed in there. There's a couple other like better than
Ezra and a few others, but they embraced the grunge. They embraced all
of that. And you're right, as you get further down the road turns
into a thing. But like, I don't need them to tell me how
many times platinum Creed's first album went and not be able to tell me what
was going on in Germany in the nineteen early nineteen forties. Okay, I
have expectations. All right, to the phones, here we go, Donna,
what's up, Good morning, casey morning. I was wondering if you
were confusing the Alamo with a table, but I have since looked it up,
and you were right. Ozzie did urinate on a table. He was
asked to be quiet or toned down his language by some businessmen in a restaurant,
and he got fun. I thought it was yeah, I heard it
as his label. But yeah, yeah, he got up on the table
and urinated on their lunch. I am sorry that you had to Google search
that. And now that's forever in your algorithm. It is, it's all
the time Osbourne pantiless. So yeah, all this time, all I thought
he ever did was urinate on the Alamo. Would have said that Ozzie had
a long history of peing on things. I'm sure he did. Yes,
all right, well, thank you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I have a great gate all right, Yeah, we had Donna doing
the research. Ross just assumes he's got the greatest hits. That's so bad.
I'm actually sad it wasn't because the way I heard it, he was
like he was in the borderom of like Sony or something, which I don't
know why. That just made me happy, probably in the boardroom and he's
like, this could have been an email, screw it and peeing on this.
Yeah. By the way, people, a lot of things can be
emails. Okay, it's okay, And I know what you're saying. Ok
you see I said you guys, tout you guys. An email doesn't mean
I didn't see it. Hey, there's another option anyway, Zach, what's
up? Hey, Casey? I just wanted to say one thing, Guardian
the cree that not with Sandy Ross was completely justified in burning that car down.
How did you look with the band being after that last alter Bridge and
particularly March your money solos here the guitar and Idaya. I don't necessarily disagree
with you Tremanios. Yeah, absolutely, yeah, but there's a lot of
Yeah, there's a lot of Look, you know, let's I went back
to Nirvana. You know, the goal, his goal, the same.
Is it the same sound with when he went on to obviously food? But
what was the other one he did with h that actual rose in that thing.
They had some like super group for a little while, and they were
definitively different sounds. So yeah, the guitarist, you know, he's good.
Uh, that's that's not what it is. We're talking about the overall
sound and delivery of it. So any who, we got to cancel some
stuff. Let me get this canceled so you don't inadvertently do this stuff,
all right, Uh, we're canceling. Uh. Board games. So you
guys played board games. Guys like board games out there. Do you have
a particular game, maybe one that the family enjoys or that usually it's kind
of a family thing that rosster. You guys play board games? Do you
have board games? You won't play? Absolutely despise board games. Really.
I hate board games. And then what they try to do games I just
I was about to say what they try to do is they try to make
the board game into a video game and it's awful everything. It's like,
oh, it's Monopoly, but it's on the Xbox. I'm like, this
sucks. I don't want to play it. What h Yeah, they do
they jack stuff. So I I they had a what was it? It
wasn't a board game, I was so it was one of my last downloads.
And like even in like the you know how they have these ads that
they populate where it looks like the game is played this way, but it's
it's not. That's not the gameplayer seeing. They do it for a lot
of the stupid pay to win games like the Bejewels of the World or things.
But somebody was like, ah, we had the they just put out
the Oregon Trail, the it's the Organ Trail, you remember, and they
had like what look like literal screen shots from the updated not the straight two
E but the more updated one where the graphics were a little better, And
I'm like cool, So I download the damn thing. I didn't pay anything
for it, so I'm not out money here, and it's not the game
at all. They decided that they were going to make it some convoluted piece
of garbage. So yeah, yeah, no, I stream that because they
showed it. We were so excited marketing. I We're gonna stream it on
twitch at the Hayes for Shriff twitch channel, not one for self promotion,
but it has to do with the topic, so I feel like I need
to bring it up otherwise I'm deserving the audience. It's the Hayes for Sheriff
Twitch channel. Give it a follow to pay for a new lambou people what
a gun? Exceptional value that is. Anyway, we were going to stream
it and it was the same thing, like the screen cap was the old
school Apple two E, green and black. I'm like, this would be
a fun to stream. It'd be nostalgic. Everyone loves the organ guys of
college. You could put like members of the Chat right like on the tombstones,
or you can name your party after people and your should be great,
right, good? And we start playing it and it is this new The
graphics are great, but it's convoluted, it is complicated, and I hated
it. Yeah, so I'm with you. Unfortunately, though, we're talking
just about board games, uh and board games, and I want to make
sure that I read this how board games uphold colonial narratives, because what do
you do in a lot of board games, right, You're out there season
land season properties. Although they use the word sees in Monopoly, you buy
them, but then it creates a different classes of citizens. No, the
ones that they're the ones that they're really focused on are Katan, which I'm
not familiar with. I don't even is you're played, I haven't, but
it looks similar to like Stratigo or Risk at Risk. Yes, that's then
those are the games that they're upset about. Stratigo, Risk Catan and others
were let's see through the here we go ultimately through a set of game mechanics
that motivates resource extraction in the name of settling a supposed empty land. The
connection between the in game narrative and the political histories of North America and other
parts of the world is clear. It's clear that the Settlers of the game
is really about settling settler colonialism. This is so dumb. How many different
Like if that is your loose definition of colonialism, Like like some kid rolling
a six sided die so he can sit there and you know, sees his
dad's little chunk of land over there as part of a wholesome family game is
simply is going to teach this kid one day to go and I don't know,
take over a swath of Africa to extract its resources and abuse its people.
You all have lost your damn mind. And arguably taking other people's stuff
or property or land or title is all stuff you see in modern video games
as a pretty standard thing. So but hey, it's canceled. Everyone's got
to have something to be mad about. So you don't be teaching your kids
that. Instead, let them listen to the new creed. It's it's the
new hotness to quote Will Smith. All right, we'll be back heng On.
So this judge has invalidated his compensation package and people are losing the mind.
It's like it's fed billions of billions of dollars. What did he do
to earn that? Well, just to we're clear, it's it's stock allocse.
It's primarily what the beef is. And it was a compensation package and
nobody's disputing this. That was put forward by a compensation committee, which Elon
is not on, was then voted by shareholders at eighty percent approval, I
believe, or eighty one eighty or eighty one, I can't remember, but
at least eighty and oh yeah, I had targets. It's like when you
hear those baseball contracts or football contracts that are insane and then you read them
and you realize, yeah, it says three hundred mil. But if they
don't do this and they don't last this long and this happens, they're not
going to hit it. And that's what a lot of packages are. And
you know, I'm sure many of you out there maybe have some incentive or
bonus packages with your whorre we do. You know, that's and you know
that's the company in addition that they want to see certain goals met and they
felt that that is that's a way to empower employees that if they are meeting
certain goals, then they don't mind paying them more than others. And because
if those goals are getting met, the likelihood is that they're making more money.
Oh, by the way, following the awarding of the package by eighty
percent of the shareholders must grew the value of the company eight hundred percent,
which generally folks like now, I understand there is all of the stuff that
goes in with when he was buying Twitter, and you know, concerns that
investors had over on the Tesla side, but that's a different thing entirely.
That would be a that would be where shareholders could say, you know,
there's a fiduciary duty here and he's not doing it, and then fine,
go to court. But this judge just wholesales like, nah, I think
that's too much. Nope, I'm telling you death buy a thousand cuts.
You are seeing what happened from all guns man, all departments of the government.
Judges sitting here and just deciding that they can just unilaterally withdraw somebody's I
mean, just think about that. If you're working with your company and whatever
you do for a living, and your boss says to you, because the
shareholders are his boss, hey do this, and if you do this,
we'll pay you this much. And then you go out and you do that
thing, and your boss literally is like Okay, here's your money, and
then a judge is like, no, I think you overpaid. That's insane.
Even if you're talking about the kind of money you're talking about with Elon
Musk, it just smacks of all of this other stuff where they're just going
after this dude, because that is what the Left does with its political enemies
now. They want to decimate and destroy them. They want Egene Carroll on
Rachel Maddow yesterday talking about how she wants to take Rachel Maddow out to go
shopping and go get a penthouse and is eging Carol into Rachel. Oh anyway,
I don't know, but you know her lawyer sitting there and she's like,
she's joking. It is absolute insanity, But they don't care. They
don't care whether it's her and Reid Hoffman funding lawsuits who's also funding Nicki Haley's
campaign, Which it's just so weird. I understand Niki Haley and Trump don't
like each other, but people need to understand the politics in this thing.
And if you like Nicki Haley, fine again, I'm not telling you how
to vote for it. But this is the reality on the ground. So
yeah, they'll keep going after this, dude, no question. All right,
let me grab a call here, Janet, what's up? Hi?
Hey, I actually read Ozzie's autobiography and I just wanted to, he wrote,
I'm sure he wrote that, sitting there clacking away on the Yeah,
learned, dude, the bath had incident that was actually an accident. He
thought someone throw a toy bat up on the stage. Really, and he
said when he when he'd been into it in a pop, like he almost
lost it, like he had really work to figure out what to do and
to follow through, and it like literally defined his career. Uh yeah,
well, yeah, you ever like drink like coke, but you think it's
going to be sweet tea or sweet tea, and you think it's gonna be
coke, and you're like, can you imagine he bites in and he realizes
it's like a real bat does the does the does the sweet tea? Struggle
in your hands? Aren't you bring me the right away yet? When they're
after the concert? He said he went after the concert, but he said
it must have been stunned or something because it wasn't squirming. Oh well not
anymore, it's not. Yeah, that's what happened with those kittens. I
thought somebody threw me a toy kitten, and then I'm like, oh no,
and then like a whole litter, I thought that there were toys,
was right, all right, all right, yeah, I got confused.
These things happen. Oh, that's a very good point. The irony,
of course, is too that the total compensation package at the time actually grew.
The package grew for what was initially approved because the valuation of the company
grew eight hundred percent. Yeah, that's that's the other ironic thing. I'm
sorry, I'm jumping back and forth from beheading bats to a society of disgruntled
people who can't get a billionaire to fall in line, so they're gonna take
him down Part two, And it's just so in your face, and they
just don't care. What is this? Bus drivers part time? Jenre spect?
I no, no, no, you're absolutely right. But here's the
thing. If you need to bus people, joh is it John John?
If you need to bus people John, and you literally can't find bus drivers
because you are not paying as much as other part time jobs, then you
have to sit there and decide what are you going to do? Yeah,
I agree with you. I don't know how you would make bus driver full
time job. But you still have to be able to compensate enough people,
enough quality people that they'll drive kids to school if you're going to provide bus
service. So that's just the reality on the ground. Bouncing back to that
one, right there, All right? Eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four. Let's go ahead and chat with mister ray Stagic. No
not yet, Okay, all right, I was gonna make that. It's
probably because I called him stupid last hour, but I didn't I try.
I was gonna call a story stupid, and that Ross hit the weather sounder
at the right time and it just was a whole thing. So I didn't
mean to. But before the end of the show, let me just give
you a little quickie here, Oh the Stanley Cup insanity. We got ice
cream? And where is this? I have this audio. I'm gonna do
the Kurt Russell audio tomorrow. You're gonna want to hear that tomorrow. That's
awesome. Oh yeah, the fifteen minute cities are back and if you don't
like them, you're you're a horrible something person. Whatever. So things to
know, and we got a whole little little video on it right now.
Into a city where everything you need is just a short walk or bike ride
away, a place where work, groceries, schools, and parks are all
within a fifteen minute radius. Well, which, by the way, sounds
very nice if you're somebody who enjoys living in a city. It's nice to
be. There's a reason people live in certain parts of cities. And you
know, for those who want to live downtown obviously Raleigh, Greensboro, Winston,
Sale, you name it, everybody's just building Durham, right, so
that is being offered and then people make that choice and they go live there.
But that's that. Ain't what this is about. And wait to hear
who they decide the real enemy is. We'll get to that. We'll get
to that first race agent from the Weather channel. He is not stupid.
No, I thought maybe you were still bad. So no, well,
I mean occasionally, but usually that's on weekends. Now, I want to
ask you something. We had a very we had a very nice listener who
is wanting to wanting some some straight talk from our weather guy here, and
as her husband passed away and she's she's in her home and the husband used
to do a lot of stuff. But one of the things he used to
do was to make sure based on what's going on temperature wise, when they
would leave a little faucet running, a little water running. Sure, So
if you could give us a quick application of that too with the forecast,
that would be very helpful for I'm sure everybody actually, So yeah, I
mean, yeah, absolutely. And you know, my rule of thumb may
not be what you would hear from somebody else, but usually i'd say,
you know, what's the obvious if your thirty two degrees or forecasts to be
thirty two degrees or lower at night. But I really think it's more like
when you get mid and low twenties, and especially the teens and lower,
you know, use that threshold. I think it's really thirty or less.
You could never be too safe because there's other things that factor into it.
You know, the age of the house. A lot of times in the
older houses, some of the crawl spaces are not insulated. A lot of
the pipes an under there. So I just say, we ran into this
issue, right, It was a whole whole thing. Yeah, it was
the whole thing. Yeah. Yeah, and you know you have it at
you know, my daughter experienced it last year at their apartment complex. These
newer they're supposed to be more advanced, like buildings and the apartment complexes,
which they just throw up. I mean, you know, anytime you're going
to be in the twenties, I would certainly twenties in below. Certainly I
use a threshold of about thirty degrees and just just let it trip. I
mean, what does it hurt, as long as you remember that it's dripping
and that you started back on or off or whatever. Yeah, so now
we will be greeted with an opportunity to do so. Oh we won't.
And in the short term, the next five to seven days we may see
temperatures that get close to thirty two degrees, but certainly won't need to do
that. We are milder this morning by five to ten degrees. There's still
some showers hanging right around Fort Bragg and down your Rockingham and fayette Ville,
Fayeville, maybe some spotty showers near Raleigh, but the trend will be better
with some sunshines later today, probably a little bit fifties and could approach sixty
tomorrow, most of us bit upper fifties and sunny. We'll have sunny weather
for Friday, Groundhog Day and right through the weekend. The warmest days probably
tomorrow and again Friday, when Friday we could hit the low sixties, and
then back in the fifties over the weekend. Probably some rain as we get
into early next week. Okay, yeah, before I let rego, Ross,
did that fully address our listeners question? Oh? Completely, yes,
thank you? Okay, good because she said it to Ross, so I
didn't know exactly what she said. All right, very good, Thank you
so much, No problem, hope. Let's hope nobody has to think about
it at all until next year. Okay, I hope so fingers crossed.
All right, we'll talk tomorrow. Man, have a good one and we'll
come back. Chat with Jeff Bellinger next. Hang on eight fifty three Kcoday
Radio program. Let's get to your Bloomberg update now, Jeff Bellinger, hanging
out, Jeff. What's happening? Hallcod Morning, Casey. Stock market futures
mixed at this hour. The Dow futures are higher, SMP and Nasdaq futures
are lower. Private employers are still hiring, but the pace has slowed since
the start of the year. Adp out this morning with a report that one
hundred and seven thousand workers were added to payrolls this month, not as many
as economists expected. Boeing posted stronger than expected fourth quarter results, but announced
it is suspending its guidance for twenty twenty four. The company's message to investors
is that it will focus all of its attention on quality. Boeing safety has
to be its first priority. After a panel on an Alaska air jet blew
out earlier this month, the FED wraps up its policy meeting two o'clock this
afternoon. Economists think interest rates will be left unchanged. They will be very
interested in whether central bankers suggest their leaning toward cutting rates soon. Paramount Global
has received the takeover bid, sources tell Bloomberg. By Ron Allen is offering
to buy all of the outstanding shares of Paramount Global for fourteen point three billion
dollars. A judge in Delaware agreed with a Tesla shareholder that Elon Musk's pay
package at the electric car company is excessive. It's fifty five billion dollars.
If the ruling is upheld on appeal, it would mean a big bite out
of Musk's wealth. It could be a threat to his companies. Tesla is
incorporated in Delaware. After that ruling, Musk took to X to indicate he's
considering incorporating the company in Texas and home Depot has cut some jobs. That
has not said the casey how many workers were laid off or where. A
spokeswoman told the Atlanta Journal Constitution the cuts affected as small number of non store
roles Casey, so that would be the compensation package. Eighty percent of the
shareholders voted for and then one guy can sue. Wow, man, Okay,
strange days, Thank you, sir, appreciate it. Okay at that
day, all right, there you go. I mean just think about that.
Think of all the w stacking up there. Man, if you look
at this stuff purely from political Jean Carroll gets eighty three million, she's she's
obviously insane. I obviously I'm just but probably gonna assume me. So let
me say this. In my opinion, she appears to me to have issues.
All you gotta do is like watch her or read anything or listen to
anything. Remember the Anderson Cooper things she did back in the day where rape
was sexy, and I like people, I saw people analyzing this going,
look Donald. The reason is because Donald Trump's deposition is wacky, and that
is it is, it absolutely is. But hers had to be as well,
and from what I've seen of it, it is so you got to
figure out, Okay, well where's that divide? And the divide obviously location,
location, location in a lot of people's opinion. But I do digress
a real quickly couple things. The Stanley cups. You know, those people
are willing to beat other people at stores for them. They just found out
they have led in them, because of course they do well. Of course

this, one of the things that we mentally associate with quality is weight,

and it feels solid and even a little heftier than you thought it was going
