Remember I remember, all right, good morning everybody. It is since so
eight, it is Friday, it is the CaCO Day radio program. I'm
just telling ross off the here. I'm like, you know what, I
haven't had any complaints this week, uh, stack wise, Normally there's a
soft day or two or it's like it's all some like really although my voice
is going at this point, but I'm not gonna let that. I'm not
gonna let that slow me down. So we'll keep trucking with that. But
like I have, like every day, there's been a pretty good stack of
stuff. And you know, some days or some weeks it's one hundred percent
like hard news, and even if that's busy, it's kind of boring,
but not it's been a good mix this week, even with the hard news
stuff I have. I have wasted a novel a lot of time over the
last like well this morning and then last evening just reading the people who are
powed out of their minds over the Trump way in at his mug shot.
It's so great. So if you don't know, there was like there was
whole gambling man, there was like Vegas line and I'm not they might have
discounted the line. I didn't even actually look this morning. They had a
betting line with an over under of his way in for the mug shot yesterday,
and I want to say the over under was like two seventy three and
a half. I didn't see what it ended at, but it was that
when I looked at one point. Although people are all upset, this is
a Washington Post story what we learned about Trump's height and weight in the Georgia
booking. So you go in and part of the process, or at least
the stated process in Atlanta is the mug shot, but also a height and
weight and what was reported instead of two seventy three a half and a half
or somewhere around there. And let's say, you know Vegas books are pretty
accurate, is somebody who from time to time partakes in a little gambling,
not with real money. I would never do that, wink wink, not
not. But like on occasion, you'll you'll be watching a game and you'll
say to yourself, how do they know? Right You're watching a game that
in the first half you're like, ah, the under is so safe,
there's no way, and then like they get right there. It's it's it's
crazy man. So when you see something like this where they go two seventy
three and a half, there is you have to factor in what you think
it is versus what they think it is, but also in their mindset,
they're also calculating what people are gonna bet, and like the the mental science
of that is you have to think out of like sheer hatred for Trump,
that people are going to overestimate. So if you're the bookie and you think
it's like two fifty or two fifty five, you may say to yourself,
the better bet just to kind of spread the odds is to state that you
think it's higher. But you sall stuff that like people gamble think about so
that you can more effectively capture a larger percentage. So if you think,
oh, well everyone hates it's gonna bet more people hate Trump, that'll bet
just because of the sheer absurdity of it, We're going to to overestimate what
they what we think it is to spread the bet more evenly, and then
we can adjust the number. So like you have to think the bookies even
overestimated knowing that they thought the gamblers would more overestimate. Does that make sense?
Ross you're not a sports gambler. But does that make sense how I'm
kind of explaining it like you, because you think if you think more people
who dislike Trump are gonna bet you have to assume that they're going to think
he weighs more because they dislike him more. Does that make sense? Yeah?
No, it makes sense. Okay, all right, So with that
in mind, you even have to think the two seventy three and a half
is a lot more. However, in the released numbers, and this again,
this is a Washington Post story, the actual reported height and weight of
Trauma was six three two fifteen, which I don't know that I believe.
I feel like that's got to be a little bit of an underestimate. And
I really don't have a dog in this fight, do you know what I'm
saying? Yeah? No, I mean, obviously there's a big difference right
between because I saw people put in side by side comparisons of like there was
a UFC fighter at the same height at two fifteen of muscle and then Trump.
But there's a big difference between two fifteen and fat and two fifteen and
muscle. Yeah, Like I have my body fat is I think three percent.
I'm just estimating. Would you say that's accurate? Three percent? Sure?
What's wrong? Are you? You had allergies to sported? I mean
it sounds like your throat was a little of a clempt or whatever Myers used
to saying. No, But to your point, yes, you're absolutely right.
Two fifteen muscle at sixty three looks like different than right. You're sure
it's gonna wear you know you're gonna it's gonna fit you differently a little better.
That being said, I don't know if I believe it either well,
and and and that's the stupidity of all this, right because the Washington Post,
and I keep pointing out it's that then the reporter literally has to sit
down and do research on this, right, like this is the story.
So I will say this. I was at the gym today and I saw
the video of him coming out given a statement afterwards. He does look smaller
than he used to look. Yeah, he does look slimmer, and the
Tucker thing, even though he was he was leaned over. I will agree
with that, But to your point, I do I believe he's two sixteen,
two fifteen and sixtree No, no, no, no, no,
no, But but but it also doesn't matter, which is why this is
so This is so dumb that this irritated people, and not just people put
money on it, but people who wanted like as part of the There's a
reason one of the scenes that's remembered in Game of Thrones is the chick walking
with you know, with the bell person behind them for the public shaming,
right. They want all of that, They want every piece of it.
So the idea that that is what is reported is part of the problem.
They don't just want him charged or arrested or mug shotted or any of the
rest. They want every aspect of the shaming. And look, admittedly there's
probably a lot of you listening that would wet yourself over the possibility of Hillary
Clinton in an orange jumpsuit with an actual mud shot, But the reality is
that's not the part that matters. So, you know the fact that they
had and I haven't even looked, I have to suspect that Vegas invoked some
sort of there's some sort of nuance on the language for that bet, which
is why a lot of these prop bets are stupid. I was more surprised
by the tribal tattoos. Oh, like the full the yeah yeah, yeah,
yeah, well I mean in for a diamond for a dollar. Look
if you because he released the mug shot. It was he posted on Twitter
the mug shot and I know the twit yeah yeah yeah, I know you
were wanting him to handicap the dah that was a day late with me too,
like I wanted him to handicap the debate. But for him to post
that and now don juniors selling T shirts of the mug shot for like thirty
bucks a pop, we'll see t shirts are thirty posters or twenty and mugs
are sixteen. And I think he made like two million dollars selling that stuff,
And that also irritates people. But the Washington Post article, I kid
you not goes through it. Sorry, I'm flipping back like three different stories
this morning. So they go through and they do like analysis of why they
think it's inaccurate. While the booking records of many co defendants list each person's
heightweight, race, and hair and eye color, it's clear the statistics are
wrong. Dave Shade. For for example, former GOP chairman it was charged
listed on the booking record is five five wayne one fifty. However, in
his photos it appears he's much taller and more heavy set, and then they
go they go through a bunch of these. Trump's hair described as blonde or
strawberry, his eye color listed as blue. Juliani listed as five nine one
eighty over. Later in the day, numbers changed to five eleven two thirty.
Did you see one of these? So one of the people charged is
a lawyer who's black. Did you see what happened with this dude yesterday?
So he pulled up in an suv in front of the courthouse because he's like,
if it I'm gonna walk in all the cameras here whatever. So he
pulls up in front of the courthouse and literal parking that is for people going
in for exactly, you know, quick business, and like the whoever the
law I don't know if it's a sheriff's deputies for what, they wouldn't let
him in. So he's there to turn himself in, and they wouldn't let
him in because they're like, we don't know who you are to get out
of here, and he's like, I'm one of the people who was literally
supposed to turn myself in today. And like eventually he got in there and
did his thing. But yeah, the whole thing was crazy yesterday. But
yeah, they're selling like T shirts mug shot you know what, Ross,
I feel like you need to get you need to get arrested. Man,
Oh, you haven't seen the new T shirt we have, did you?
I'm sorry? Did you get arrested yesterday? Or so? It's your face?
What? What? What? It's a mug shot? And I said
what booger holes most wanted? I? Well, what is? I didn't
I didn't get arrested yesterday. I had a very like nothing day, yes
arrested in booger Hole, West Virginia. What did I get arrested in booger
disparaging the good people of booger Hole, West Virginia? I don't know how
like two hours yesterday, Gross, I'm not sure how. I despaired,
like I thought it was a place and we found out it was a place.
So I so I'm like booger holes most wanted? Am I? Actually?
You know, I haven't made a T shirt yet, But now that
I think about it, it's a good idea, no is it? Do
you think that's a good idea? But it wouldn't be true though. Also,
I don't Booger Hole I don't think has its own police force. It's
it's unincorporated or something. So so booger Hole's most wanted Huh. I'm just
dude. I more than three people having some sort of connection to Booger Hole
and listening to the show was amazing to me. My wife laughed that that
hard in the long time, dude, because it was so surprising that there's
no way that's a real place. And I racked my brain. I'm like,
subconsciously I had to have heard that at some point. But and the
fact that there's multiple boogers. Yeah, according to the shop, sixteen dollars
mugs, two versions of the posters nineteen ninety nine, and the T shirt
in twenty nine nine. Oh, it's fantastic. Uh, what a day,
And we got a whole show to go. Pete Calendar will join us
coming up at eight oh five. I wonder if he's ever been to Booger
Hole. I'd love to get into it, just burning time, man.
Plus we got a whole stack of other stuff to to come. Six twenty
one, let's take a break. Hang on the show. After the show
is on the iHeart Radio app search k c O Day for the podcast on
the iHeart Radio app. All right, good morning, it is uh six
twenty six k c O Day radio program. Yeah they are. They're big
mad over the Trump numbers. What was that ross? Rob Ryaner was found
dead? Under him? They found him? They found Rob Ryaner dead?
Oh wow, under five hundred copies of the mug shot there was on TMC
they were hosting a house down assuming pants. Yes, oh man died of
exhaustion exposure. It was bloodling. He's not really dead. Mentally, I
have to win, I dude, thinking of its speaking of like people who
were older. So I was reading I saw an article yesterday about Danny Treo,
the actor Machette, right, and it was like, Danny Trejo celebrates
fifty five years of sobriety. Sobriety, that's just a sobriety part. And
it's like, and I had to look it up. He's seventy nine.
He's a year off eighty. Danny Treo. He is older than they thought
he was. But yeah, I would have figured he was like late sixties,
early seventies. I saw him being interviewed on something not that long ago.
If you told me he was a year off eighty. But also it's
like you kind of built that into your image of Danny Trejo because one of
the facts that people know about him is like, dude was in he went
to prison. I think he was in San Quentin for years, right,
and then he got out and he was able to kind of parlay it into
Admittedly, he was always either the bad dude from any Latin gang or Native
American stuff. But like I realize, I don't remember Trejo when he had
a problem. He's been acting that long with you know, congrats for him,
but holy cow, but it's sad to hear that about Rob Reiner,
even if it's not true. It's not true. By the way, keeping
you connected. This is ninety four five w PTI in the Triad and one
O six one FM Talk in the Triangle. All right, good morning,
It is six thirty five. It ain't exactly tourist goring season, but I
like it. According to authorities, a tourist in Yellowstone was incredibly intoxicated.
After authorities say, and he's now banned from Yellowstone, which they don't screw
around. By the way, there is I actually knew somebody who was banned
from Yellowstone for like they banned him for ten years or something, and they
banned him for he was hunting south of Cook City, Montana. So he's
in Wyoming, even though Cook Cities in Montana, it's like barely in it's
this little strip and then if you go south to there, you're back in
Wyoming. He was hunting and he followed an animal technically into the park,
but the animal had been wounded by a guy, by a tourist he was
hunting with on a piece of private property. But he went in with the
tourist and because he was guide he can do a follow up shot. He
actually shot it and was field dressing it in the park and didn't rely,
and he got like a ten year ban even though like even authority, he
didn't get the hunting violation which they hunting in the park. I can't remember
what the charge was, but anyway, but like so this dude, forty
nine year old tourist, according to authorities, was in the park. Now
he's all the way in the park. He's in one of the thermal areas
in the Middle East from Michigan, and according to authorities, he was absolutely
hammered out of his gourd and was so intoxicated and under the influence of alcohol
or drugs that he he wandered into one of the hot springs. And it's
a good thing he picked correctly, because you know, one of the things
that is really illegal in Wyoming is or in Yellowstone, it's called hot footing,
which is literally going into one of the thermal springs. Now, I'm
not gonna lie to you. Some thermal springs, if you know what you're
doing, are pretty consistent on temperature and are right at a good temperature for
that. And I'm not saying it's something that I could tell you where to
do it. I mean probably not now I don't remember. But some people
will test the water, and what gets them in trouble is they don't realize
that just like the geysers on a bit of a rotation, you could like
be in one of these springs and think it's quite comfortable and in a matter
of seconds it's blistering your skin hot because there is that transition of really hot
water that comes in there. And then the other way people get themselves in
trouble is it temperature wise feels okay, but there is an emission of gas.
So and then when they're sitting in it. They're overcome with it.
This guy was just drunk when authorities say he wandered off the trail and gotten
into one of the hot springs. Thankfully, somebody caught him. This particular
hot spring, even though it sits at a comfortable ish temperature on a rotation
about every two hours, it has an emission of hot water which raises the
temperature to two hundred degrees. And they they found him prior to that,
or they found him actually it was heating up, but he but he survives.
So I have experienced with this. I actually did this in Red Dead
Redemption too accidentally. I said, what is this hole? What's down this
hole? Yeah? Yeah, it did not end well, no, no
it doesn't. They've there's been people that literally were dissolved. I can believe
it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's been people that have been dissolved
over the years where like the best guesses, they got in there and it
did not work out. But yeah, he just got really drunk and he's
like, I'm gonna go sit in that hot spring, and he did suffer.
Apparently he was able to pull himself out of there as it started warming
up. So that's good. But he did suffer for thermal burns to his
foot and leg. So yeah, you shouldn't do that unless you know what
you're doing. Like I could tell you right outside of Mammoth Hot Springs a
place you could do it where it really doesn't fluctuate that much. But just
saying, probably shouldn't do that, all right, six forty case Friday Edition.
Get somebody in trouble man. Let me flip back over to this dude.
I feel like my voice is like very wided today. That's very exciting.
Good thing for a Friday all right, So back to the Trump mug
shot and everything. So they're upset he's kids selling T shirts. Oh did
you say? Apparently Trump did something else yesterday which was rather interesting. According
to authorities, he sold for He's sold or turned over whatever mar Lago to
his kid, And some people are reading a lot into that. I mean,
I try to get that because now there's this second layer on some of
the investigative stuff down there in Florida. But yeah, Don Junior is apparently
now the listed owner of mar Lago, and I like, I'm sure there's
a lot of corporate stuff there and it's more complex than that. But people
lost their minds over that too. They're like, oh, he's trying to
trying to hide stuff, but it looks like they did it in the legal
way. And I suspect if the government wanted to lean into mar Lago for
whatever reason, they'd be able to do it because they didn't hide any of
that. So between between people upset that they don't think the weight matches and
the mar Lago thing, and then Don Junior selling T shirts, that's pretty
crazy. So are you gonna do a T shirt now? I guess since
apparently I'm the most wanted a booger Hole, or is that something you're actually
working out? You get your wife to design that stuff, don't you?
Yeah, she she typically does it. She's just like, hey, I'm
gonna make this. Well, she's good at it. Like get that.
So like the Boon Big Beer, even though that's not a real thing,
she did that, right, is a thing stopping in a Boon Big Beer
denier. So I did get some emails people are like, what Booger Hole
needs is any of the Booger Big Beer, which seems like a bit of
a knockoff. But we'll say, yeah, a little something for the tourists
right there. So anyway, people people upset over the you know, all
of the Trump Trump stuff, and they're back on Twitter and they're selling t
shirts and stuff Trump yesterday. Didn't see here is Trump by the way,
post smug Shotica. The should never happen. If you challenge an election,
you should be able to challenge an election. I thought the election was a
rigged election, the stolen election, and I should have every right to do
that. As you know, you have many people that you've been watching over
the years do the same thing, whether it's Hillary Clinton or Stacey Abrams or
many others. When you have that great freedom to challenge, you have to
be able to otherwise you're can have earned dishonest elections. What has taken place
here as a travesty of justice. We did nothing wrong. I did nothing
wrong, and everybody knows that. I've never had such support. And that
goes with the other ones too. What they're doing is election interference. They're
trying to interfere with an election. There's never been anything like it in our
country before. This is their way of campaigning. This is one instance,
but you have three other instances. It's election interference. And I did see
I did see the audience. Have you seen the audio clip of MSNBC post
twenty sixteen literally promoting the Democrats to kind of manipulate how the election the electors
work, Right, there's so there's a clip around where they have a legal
analyst on there and he's just like, so, what they need to do
is they need they call him faithless electors, right, they need to swap
out. And there are a lot of similarities to what they're accusing Trump of
doing, and of course that's what he's speaking to yesterday. But what captured
the attention was not Trump. It was one of his supporters who happens happens
to be a minority supporter, who was outside of the courthouse, ended up
on film rossa what did is a T shirt? Say? So, I
don't have to say it what it is? What the T shirts say?
It was wearing dear well, the abbreviated version of the guy outside up supporting
him as an N word for Trump, and did it? No? Did
not? Oh no, it is that something else that T shirt. I'm
probably not gonna buy you that one. I may buy you the Trump one
for your for your string, because I don't feel like you should wear that
and of course, uh, wearing a provocative T shirt like that meant he
was gonna get interviewed. I'm here to support President Trump. You wanna know
why I'm here to support President Trump because it undere black men like this for
decades, make up, charging and put on. So I know Trump is
innocent. I support Trump. I guess this corrupt two tiered justice system.
That's why I'm here to show my support. That's a black man for Trump.
And I'm wearing my shirt for Trump twenty and twenty four. And I
mean, now, what do you think about the indictments? Oh, it's
a bunch of books. It's going around the country. You know Fannis Fanny
Willis, she's ah, she went to school with my sister, she fully
Sully. So she's a puppet for the white liberal that that it's controlling everything.
She's in front, but the white liberal back there pulling no strings,
telling her what to do. That's what I think about. I'm making a
fool of herself. Do you think it's gonna help his election? Of course,
it's gonna elevate himorrow. I think we should make Trump king. That's
how I feel we should make him him wouldn't that be like kind of like
coming next day. No, that's no what Neil communists. Now, we're
just gonna make him king. But we still got out with freedom to the
right. Favorite thing he thought that, Yeah, Trump for King twenty four.
He's just messing with her. She has no idea, she's like communism.
Oh, not a communist gig, just a right, just a gig
like Fritz Charles, this king. But yeah, you know, it's still
love. It's not a democracy per se. But no, no, no,
no, no, it's not an off with his head king, just
a kig, dude. That's great. So yeah, it's just craziness all
around. And then some of the news reporting that picture the mug shot,
his first tweet in over two and a half years. Yep, Donald Trump
is back on Twitter. Mug shot August twenty fourth, twenty twenty three.
Election interference. Never surrender, Donald J. Trump dot com. All right.
So the point of it is, and I've read multiple story all of
that yesterday did nothing to diminish his poll numbers, and he ended up the
whole news cycle was him. Whether they're arguing about the weight that was stated,
whether they're talking to the Trump for King Dude or any of the rest
of it. They haven't. There hasn't been a significant poll release, but
just some of the you know, talking to the public stuff that they did,
like it did. It did nothing to diminish any of his poll numbers.
And now I think Fanny Wetser Bucket is sitting there talking about trying to
start to trial in October. So who the hell knows? Anyway, six
forty seven, take a break, be right back, hang on, thank
you. Jac Is on ninety four five PTI in the Triad and one oh
six one FM Talk in the Triangle. All right, good morning. It
is six fifty four here on the k c O Day radio program. Do
Do Do, Do Do. We're just taking a little football off the air
as the regular season creeps upon us. Yeah, I don't know, man.
I look over the NFC. There's some scary teams this year. Here's
the problem with the Vikings, because I'm just having this conversation yesterday. The
Vikings have a fundamentally okay team. I mean, look, they want a
crap ton of games last year, but they get embarrassed by the Giants in
the in the playoffs, it weren't good and the areas where they suffered.
They what they did is they basically did nothing. And this started as a
baseball discussion because I was asking Ross about the Yankees. Man, and your
point is valid, Houston, what was your comparison the Astros? They win
the World Series and they clean house. Yeah, they rebuilt the front office.
Whereas the Yankees they had a depressing season. And what did they do?
What do the cat Nothing? Not a damn thing. What'd you do
in the trade deadline? Nothing to do a damn thing. That's kind of
what the Vikings did. They didn't do anything. I think they'll still win
the division just because you know, the Packers gonna have to figure themselves out.
And even though the Bears and the Lions and middle are getting better.
Yeah whatever, but they really didn't do anything, and they It baffles But
when I look at like the NFC, I think San Francisco with Christian McCaffrey.
I know there's a lot of debate. Okay, who's gonna be the
quarterback, Who's gonna be Lance? Is it gonna be mister irrelevant? Whatever
I do, if everyone's healthy, I don't know if it matters. What
baffles me is the Eagles they were able to add so much talent, and
you know, you got at the salary cap and it almost didn't matter.
But like the Vikings from a defensive stand, they really didn't do anything.
And then they went and they drafted a receiver in the first round that I
don't think it's the first round receiver. It doesn't make any sense to me.
Your point to the Bills, I don't know, man, dude,
it drives me nuts, because this is what I was saying last year,
right, Like they I think they improved everywhere except where I wanted them to
improve, which is the old line. Because you look at the Eagles,
and you look a look at the Chiefs last year, right and they both
their quarterbacks both have all the time in the world to step step back and
figure stuff out. That's so, like the Eagles said, one of the
best old line in the league. Possibly, Yeah, No, I would
agree with that. Yeah. And they're all young too. They're really young,
that old line. So they're getting the benefit of some really young contracts,
which kind of explained some of the salary cap stuff. But I want
to say, like one of their rookies last year, he didn't give up
a single sect I mean b and then you know, then they over a
buffalo. You have Josh Allen running for his life like every other play.
Yeah, I think I saw a stat where he was like the most under
pressure in the entire year or something like that, Like we did the most
of the throws under pressure. Yeah, we signed a safety yesterday, uh
Gervase. And I think we cut one of our wide receivers. But AFCs
is gonna be tight because it's gonna be it is, like, I have
no idea they might Bills might end up third. Either way, it's our
year. I don't wanted to be confused. This is gonna be the year.
Well down, cook, you gotta face tell and cook so twice.
Yeah. I don't know what to make of the Jets yet. I don't
think that their line is gonna be that great. I think they're either going
to be great or awful, right, but they got a lot of talent
over there. NFC South. I don't even know what to do with the
NFC South, Like obviously, like the Panthers are not they're not hunting the
Super Bowl now, but they risked it all for what they brought in and
we'll see. I mean, obviously, the Panthers are an organization that was
absolutely revitalized with cam Newton and but man McCaffrey. A healthy McCaffrey is bonkers
as any of the any of those listening to your Panthers fans know should be
interesting. All right, Uh, we got we got other sporting news though,
Like I'm beginning to think that maybe there's some unhealthy stuff going on in
wrastling. I'll give you the details next. Oh no, louis to get
a crisis on our hair. Oh that's not good. Ros Are you familiar
with the buttlift crisis? Oh no, wow, this is not a little
thing either. All right. According to authorities, one of the formerly very
popular reconstruction surgery methods that was all the rage going back to well, I'm
I read this story once. I didn't mark anything, all right, So
folks getting the butt lifts apparently peaked back in twenty sixteen, twenty sixteen,
and at the time what was the very popular surgery for the less expensive way
of doing this was polymer filling, and in fact from twenty sixteen to twenty
twenty, actually going back to twenty twelve, but so twenty twelve to twenty
twenty. But the peak of which was twenty sixteen to twenty twenty. The
majority of women getting butt lifts utilized as polymer method, and only now are
they starting to fail, and some estimated the failure rate could be as much
as ten percent. Seen as a cheaper and less invasive alternative for fat grafting
utilizing polymer. The majority of lifts that were done reported to be done because
many of these lifts took place in other countries between twenty sixteen to twenty twenty,
where the polymer and now up to ten percent annually or failing, and
it's it's not good. Oh wow. In fact, plastic surgeons in the
US actually have a they've come up with a popular remedy for this, which
they are charging about five grand four which actually is more expensive than the procedure
was. And not everyone's able, not everyone's able to deal with it.
And now there's a whole story here about how they're fighting insurance companies. Should
insurance companies have liability and they're saying no because it was an elective surgery and
women are left literally with bags hanging off of them. Wow. During initial
treatment, women are not allowed to sit down for twenty days. Those getting
the FIXT surgery. While not limited to the butt enhancement, the very same
bipolymer treatment was used to enhance breasts, calf muscles, and even men seeking
enlargement he catchman drift. However, now is as soon as five years they're
seeing large scale failures. Well that's not good. In fact, even though
five thousand is the base rate, most extraction operations caused upwards of eleven thousand.
Okay, so five thousand is the reconstruction, So you're on the hook
for sixteen thousand, and on average people were paying about three thousand for the
surgery between three and five thousand. Well, there you go, something to
worry about. I guess if you wouldn't got to lift. Sorry, just
got distracted reading that story. Some of these photos are that is not good
man, all right? So how many of you like me are beginning to
think that maybe there's some inherently unhealthy practices in the world of pro wrestling,
although this one may be a little different. So for the second time this
week, dude, we didn't do the other story yesterday, did we?
We didn't know we did not. I'm just thinking about that. So I'm
gonna say second time this week and then let me let me reference the story
from yesterday because they are a little different. For the second time this week,
we have a former pro wrestler who has passed away. Yesterday it was
and then we didn't get into the story. Terry Funk, one of the
highest regarded wrestlers in history, has passed away the age of seventy nine.
So that's pretty damn good for a professional wrestler, though, dude, Yeah,
no, no, I'm just gonna say that. So that's that's arguably
a lot older than these stories where and they were saying he suffered from dementia.
Yes, Bunk had a career spanning from sixty five all the way to
twenty seventeen, including a rain as the nw A World Champion. That's obviously
very early in his career. He was also one of the pioneers of hardcore
style of wrastling, considered by fans as a consummate professional. He also started
in the movie Roadhouse. Well, they didn't star in it, but he
was in it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, a good movie. Did
they release the They haven't released the updated one, have they. I saw
a version on x or Twitter yesterday where it was a Roadhouse but just with
the Terry Funk scenes, okay, and I would have it was probably the
best, the best version I've ever seen. Who did they get in the
update? Who is it? Jillen Hall? Right? Uh? Yeah he
isn't, isn't it? Yeah? Yeah not see No. Funk also appeared
said in Rhodehouse, Paradise, Alley, the Ringer and over the Top conducting
in the Hall of Fame back in twenty eleven. However, the story yesterday
a much younger wrestler and apparently there's they think there's a COVID connection here,
and that is Bray Wyatt, who at the age of thirty six passed away.
They say that Wyatt suffered a heart attack following about of COVID. Let's
see here, when did he have the COVID? Well, he was thirty
six. Oh yeah, that's right. Having an updated on another story.
Sorry, bouncing around here this morning. So earlier this year, Bryant or
excuse me, bray Wyatt got COVID, which they say exasperbated a heart issue,
but unfortunately suffered a heart attack and passed away. He had been sidelined
with the illness though undisclosed, for several months, but now that's what they're
saying. Done it again thirty six? Yeah, yeah, I don't know.
I mean, obviously, when you get into these stories, a lot
of these stories, especially when you get into heart issues, you wonder what's
all there. I'm not saying that I know anything or accusing anything, but
you know, the age of thirty six. I mean, he's a bigger
dude, but you know, he's in a lot better health than most dudes
are having a heart attack at thirty six. But like, when I look
at like Bray Wyatt, he doesn't seem like because a lot of these guys,
at least before in the past or in the eighties and nineties, you
see like their build and you're like, that's not a natural build. That
has to be like steroids or h he didn't really have that sort of like
build. Yeah, it looks like it looks like a big, old,
good old yeah right. Yeah, let's see here. I was surprised to
learn I had no idea that he was the son of irs. Oh yeah,
yeah. Yeah. It's almost as if there's a little nepotism in the
in the business. Yeah, now come on, come on, man,
I'm just I'm just saying it appears that way. You know, I don't
know, but yeah, according to uh, let's see here. Sean ross
Sap, who reviewed in a report, revealed in a report that he had
suffered an exacerbated heart condition and never fully recovered and then suffered the fatal heart
attack on Thursday. But many had seen him on a road to recovery at
the time he suffered the heart attack there. So yeah, so the son
of irs. Huh, Well, he's got a whole family, right,
isn't it. There's a whole there's a whole clan. Man. Let's see
here. I remember which story they asked your list of the paragraph, and
I think it's the other story. So yeah, two wrastlers in one week.
Ah, here we go. Yeah, going back to the other story.
Yeah, and also going back to Terry Funk, there was there was
some family connection there as well. So all right eight eight eight nine three
four seven eight seven four coming up on the show, and we'll get into
this. We'll get some of your phone calls here pretty quick. We gotta
do this. This story, I guess, is gaining some traction. A
man who was fleeing a drug bust on a scooter is dead after they say,
an NYPD officer attempted to stop him in a rather unusual way. And
now I see that they're spinning this into a officer abuse. I'll let you
be the judge. I'll give you the details of the story. And apparently
we're making Godzilla. We're gonna go ahead and do this thing. So details
on what's going on in Japan right now seven sixteen, break and back in
a few hang on. Yes, this one oh six one FM Talk in
the Triangle and News Talk w PTI and the Triad. All right, welcome
back, seven twenty two, Good morning, Happy Friday. Pete Calendar will
join us, coming up eight oh five. So they've started to do it.
A water dump that has been on hold for quite some time of the
former Fukashima Daiachi plant. This would be the new plant that, going back
to an earthquake in twenty eleven, melted down and they've been holding wastewater since
twenty eleven. They've now decided to start venting that water into the ocean.
The decision a controversial one, as many concerned about the effects the wastewater could
have a marine life, particularly those having to do with seafood. I remember
there was a big flipout at the time because obviously there was a water discharge
at the time, and you had environmental groups that were saying that they were
they saw heightened readings as far away as like Washington and over on the US
coast, although then I saw that that wasn't true. So I don't know.
But a lot of this is predictive and it's very It's difficult too,
because a lot of the groups that are making predictions don't seem particularly unbiased on
this. I mean, obviously you have people for the plant who are like,
nah, everything's fine, and then you have environmental groups or like,
this is the end of ocean life, and logically you know it lies somewhere
in the middle. But there is the you know, there's potential for Godzilla.
So yeah, that going for us. Let's see scientists, so is
best I can tell The thought process is scientists say they can't rule out the
possibility of mutations, but they don't have any reason to believe that will necessarily
be the case. So again, somewhere in the middle. Although let's get
a new folklore thing, ross. Are you familiar with Japanese folklore animals?
Have you ever ever seen anything on this maybe perhaps all right. So one
of the things that I find as somebody likes to travel, and I especially
love learning about some of the culture stuff everywhere. One of the things that's
very interesting wherever you go is the the folklore animals. Right, So what
in the in the US? What do you think when I say folklore animals,
what I'm talking about Chubicadra, big Foot? Well right, moth man
would be one example, but more but the higher profile would be like Bigfoot.
So you know, things not just animals, but things that exist from
folklore standpoint, some of them in different countries are fascinating. Japans have to
be the craziest, hands down. So I went to Japan and I like,
we had a whole thing where this this, uh, this this,
uh, it's a woman, I can't remember whatever. We were being told
all about this, and I was I was bug eyed listening to it.
So you know, you have the different you have the different urban legends and
folklore stuff. So where it's they have a name for the thing in Lake
Champlain is a champ, right, They called champ all right, it's kind
of like the Lochness and society. But Japan has a crazy amount, and
I can't remember the actual Japanese name. Like, let me give you an
example. There's two that stand out in my mind. So one of them
is and it is I can't remember what town in Japan. It sounds the
one where they held the Olympics. I think it doesn't matter. So like
the folklore thing, it's not an animal per se. The other one is,
but this one's crazy. So, like the legend is, if you're
traveling on this road, there maybe what looks like an old man who flags
you down. But if you stop, all of a sudden, he removes
all of his clothes and then chases you backwards. And if he gets you
in a position, he bends over, spreads his but talks and instead of
there being normal anatomy, there there's an eyeball staring at you. And it's
like it's like it's like the legend. Yeah, he doesn't do anything to
you. I think the thing is he does it to see how people react
to it. But like that's a pretty sadass bigfoot, you know what I'm
saying. How are you supposed to react to it? Like you're supposed to
like three stooges like mow it I don't poke it think I don't remember.
I'm just like, all right, I'll look out for that. Sounds awful,
but he doesn't do anything to you. But the other one was and
again they have a name for this, and it escapes me, and I
was I remember laughing at that and like getting this stern look like don't you
don't don't make fun of the eyeball. But guy, the other one is
this raccoon thing. But his you know when I say twigs and berries when
I mean by berries, so he can shape shift his berries to make stuff
and chase you like he can make a boat out of him and stuff.
These are these are these, These are the big Foots of Japan. I
demand the Marvel movie right now. Oh my god, Smart talk all day
four five w PTI and the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in
the Triangle. Yeah good. I think about it, and I'm like,
maybe that's just me and a lot of people. Don't when you eat,
when you eat the pulled pork barbecue, do you put sauce or no sauce?
Bros? If it's vinegar based, I don't. Oh you don't put
any sun Yeah, Marky, but Marky doesn't like. She prefers it like
the like the like the hickory type, so she loves the sauce. I
just retweeted a photos so it's Josh Stein. Look it's a politician doing the
Hey look, how normal I am? Picture right, And it's not limited
to him, but he just want to put the photo out. And he
posted a picture of himself sitting at a table, says on the way to
Jacksonville, stopped in Kinston, n see barbecue restaurants for two hundred Alex,
who's got it? And it's just him smiling. I gotta play to barbecue
in front of him with some collards. Uh what is that the apples?
You get the apples? Yeah, stewed apples. Yeah. I would say
for me, it depends on what kind of barbecue it is and where it's
from. But there's no sauce on the on the pulled pork, and I'm
just like, come on, man, it's not exactly cal Cunningham or excuse
me, Joey Cunningham. But where's he's probably at what Kings if he's in
Kingston. But it's, hey, look how normal I am. I might
put some cold slaw on it. That's fun. Oh yeah, yeah,
No, no dude, I'm with you. I'll pull I'll still put the
sauce. But mixing the coleslaw into the into the pork, I am totally
down with that. I wonder who was it? What politician was it?
During the last presidential campaign, remember they were sitting across from Al Sharpton having
some sort of you know, repentance apology meeting, and they had the barbecue
in front of him. It looked so so awkward. It was collards,
right, it was that was boodage. Yeah, but it was I think
it had to do with a comment he made too. It was it was
like an apology type type meal. Oh what was it? I can't remember
it because there was there was an extra element to so that whole thing.
Hold on, let me see if I can find it. Because they were
criticizing him, not just for eating it, yeah, because he was he
was in New York. He went to that very famous soul food restaurant up
in bron up in the Bronx. Yeah. What was he made some He
looked so uncomfortable. It was just like, you know, this is what
I do. I mean, sill food with the you know, with al
Sharpton. Yeah, Sylvia's in all the time. Yeah, yeah, I
think that's what it was. Like, Oh, it's just me having normal
lunch. You're like, I don't know about all that. He looked.
There was there was some angle to it. I can't even remember, but
I do remember this story. But yeah, you gotta have sauce on their
band. But I don't know. Maybe I'm the one. Maybe there's a
lot of people don't like the sauce on there, so and I'm just being
a jerk because it's Friday whatever. Retweeting the photo, you can look at
it at Casey on the radio, Dude, did you see do you saw
many new followers we have and like almost all of them are lobbyists and election
folks. That's how you know it's the season, right. We get all
these follows from various packs and groups and lobby people, and for whatever reason,
there's just been like there's been like a dozen this week, and I'm
like, oh, I guess we're an election season, so they'll be reaching
out sooner rather than later. I'm sure. All right, let me let
me get in on this. An update to a story yesterday. So,
as we mentioned one of the planes for the Wagner group that reportedly was carrying
head of the group, Pregnazine, who not that long ago, was marching
his way into Moscow. And it was a whole thing, and the group
was upset and it was it was like a soft coup kind of thing.
And then all of a sudden it got worked out, and Putin's like,
no hard feelings. And as we mentioned on the show, if you're that
dude, don't go in a multi story building. I don't care that Putin
said, no hard feelings. And then yesterday the news that the plane was
fell from the sky, all right, and he along with nine others were
killed, three crew members, seven passengers, and they were suggesting that a
missile hit it. Now new information, this is according to US government sources.
They say it wasn't a missile. However, they do suspect that a
bomb was detonated on the planes. So I don't know that that changes anything.
But as par our discussion yesterday, as Ross pointed out too, you're
not exactly trying to hide it at that point, right, You're not pretending
like there was a flap failure, bomb or a missile doesn't matter. People
get the message. Although I did see enough people claiming that, oh,
well, he wasn't on that plane. He's just in hiding. Now.
I don't know about all that, but yeah, well, US officials say
that no definitive conclusion has been reached. Earlier reports that it may have been
a missile seem unlikely, and the the suspected cause was a bomb that went
off on the Embry Legacy six hundred, which is a mid size executive jet.
So again, I don't know that that changes anything, but you know,
same gist probably shouldn't have got on the plane. And as we mentioned
yesterday, him, I can see where you're kind of like, you're overconfident.
But I don't know if if you're anybody else, why you'd get on
the plane with that dude. You're like, no, I'll walk, I'll
walk to Moscow. I'll meet you guys there. I'm gonna hitchhike, take
an uber. You know pretty much he's going to move myself to Siberia.
I'm gonna go out. Yeah. Yeah, it's very nicest time of year.
Oh that's gorgeous, man, spray. You know, I got the
deer running around and stuff, and the bears and what could go right,
he speaking of bears. Ready for this. In Connecticut, government officials are
turning to a new solution after a near record number of bear encounters. Apparently
it's been a rather busy summer. So they go over some anecdotal stuff there
at the beginning, including a rather interesting scene where a thirty three year old
parents says that they hear their child yelling in the yard and a beard approached
the kid and was literally eating an ice cream cone out of the kid's hand,
a black bear, which eventually ran off when a mom came out.
But that's obviously very disconcerting. Now, government officials in Connecticut say that they
are considering a new solution guns. I'm going to repeat this one more time.
Yes, that's right. After a record number of human bear encounters,
wildlife officials in connecticuts say that they are considering a new solution to mitigate the
problem, and that is guns. Yeah. So, basically, in Connecticut,
they they got rid of the ability to go out and hunt bears in
a lot of instances, and believe it or not, that has led to
a largely increased bear population, which of course leads to more bears interacting with
humans for the purpose of binding food, not usually the humans, but you
know, human food, and if they have to, then humans. And
now they're wondering if maybe, just possibly one of the ways that they could
push back on that is to allow people to shoot some of the bears,
which they say would have the ad effect of decreasing what is a population that
is far exceeding what officials say is a safe number, but also also instilling
a natural fear within some of the bear population of interacting with humans. Boy,
that's that's pretty crazy. I'm pretty crazy idea right there. Who to
think that managing the population of something with you know, a legal hunting But
they say Connecticut is hardly an outlier. Bear sightings and interactions have risen in
many parts of the United States, including Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North
Carolina, in Maryland, where they say that some fifty years of evolving hunting
restrictions has had an effect of not just reviving low populations, but now since
they haven't changed anything, significantly increasing the amount of bears there. Well who,
yeah, absolutely who who Who's who is literally in charge of coming up
with ideas for you people? I'm here to tell you when it comes to
critters, guns, are a wonderful mitigator. And the fact that you're sitting
here scratching your head after fifty years going, man, I can't understand why
there's so many bears around people and don't really have a fear of them this
right here, man, So I'm glad they're at least thinking about it.
As you can imagine, many animal rights groups are upset. However, they
say that the population currently they estimated near thirty thousand, nearly double what they
recommend the population should be. So yeah, you're gonna have to plink a
few of them. I know you don't want to hear that, but that's
the reality, all right. Seven forty six ray staging from the Weather Channel.
You got bears up in your yard? Man, Maybe it's not as
bad as Georgia, but uh no, there's been some sightings. But yeah,
Connecticut apparently they're having a big issue with them, and they're like,
oh, maybe you should shoot some of them. Yeah, you'll put that
right under the category with snakes. I have more of a snake problem than
anything else. Although knock on wood, yeah I caught you get copper heads,
I'm assuming down there. Yeah, I've had Yeah, a couple in
my garage full grown. Oh really fun? Oh yeah, yep, full
grown. Uh not not recently, but over the last few years, like
name them or anything or no. No. One time a kids and wife
got in the car backed out and it was under the car in the garage.
Oh, that's terrifying because your leg was just there. So yep.
And you know it doesn't go well when your spouse or significant other, you
know, you're in the house and she calls and says, oh, there's
a snake in the You're like arguing. Meanwhile, there's this copper head in
the garage and you're arguing with each other about who's gonna Yeah, what do
you mean, who's gonna yeah, who's gonna get rid of it? Like
what you do? That's you? Brother? Well, I'm thinking about calling
the neighbor. Are you like reminding her? I thought we achieved the quality
that's true. No, no, no, I don't do that. No,
and the other one, yeah, the other one I don't. I
pulled in and I opened a garage door and there it was. I was
like, oh, that's great. So anyway to even they're even cold blood
and they're trying to get out of the heat. That's crazy stuff. Yeah
they are, and there's more heat. I didn't get into advisory criteria,
but hot enough like yesterday, try at ninety two trying out, think ninety
five or ninety six, and about that spread today, except it might be
like ninety four to ninety seven for today's hides with heat induces close to one
hundred. Now was this weak little disturbance approaching early tonight, so there may
be a couple of showers thunderstorms. High school football started right, yeah,
I know there were some games. So either way, if you are heading
out tonight, you may get hit with a rogue shower thunderstorm. And then
tomorrow afternoon we may have another chance of seeing some rogue showers, thunderstorms,
and still in the mid nineties, maybe some upper nineties for the triangle feeling
one hundred to one oh five, So tomorrow is probably hotter than today.
The relief will start oozing in here on Sunday, some afternoon showers, thunderstorms,
decent chants to miduper eighties. Then early next week I think we'll stay
in the low to mid eighties for a few days. I don't see any
real hot stuff coming back, but showers, thunder showers each day through at
least Tuesday, and by about that point, frankly will be a hurricane off
the coast. So if next week's your beach week, it's probably gonna get
a little bit rough outer banks, near the beaches of Virginia, Virginia Beach
at Delaware, et cetera, et cetera, as that sits out there,
and then something may try to get into the Gulf and develop Hurricane Center as
a hashed area with a seventy percent chance of developing in seven days in the
southern Gulf. So that might be something else we have to talk about next
week. So let me ask you a question. Yeah, how are you
a professional football player? He's starting what cornerback I believe for the Dallas Cowboys.
And you do not realize that when you like something on Twitter, people
can see it. Did you see the Trayvon Digs thing? I did not?
I did not. Please do tell. We don't have to now,
but please do tell. Oh, yeah, all right, I'll fill you
in in the next hour a little early. Yeah, we get a little
Oh, dear God, rosstus, I'm not gonna peak. Okay, Well,
don't, for love of God, don't google anything either, alright,
what he was liking? All right, thank you, seven forty nine case
O Day Radio program. Well that'll be a learning experience coming up here in
the next hour. Hang on one oh six one FM Talk and ninety four
five w PTI, two stations driving the best in talk. This is case
O Day and Carolina's Morning News. All right, good morning, it is
seven fifty four. All right, So how would they dis tracked out?
Have you seen the Trump mug shot yet? Well, if you haven't.
If you haven't, it's coming to a T shirt or a mug or a
poster near you, so is it. NB. So NBC's describing this an
angry looking Trump in the mug shot. Yeah, I don't know about all
that. I think when you look at the mug shot, yeah, you
see he's not smiling. It's not who is the former Speaker of the House
of Texas did remember he did the smiling mug shot and that was the whole
thing. He's not smiling in it. But the way that they're describing it
is they want they're trying to intimate that this mug shot is a picture of
a defeated, angry individual. And I don't know if I'm getting that vibe
ross you've seen the picture. Would you say that that's accurate or if that's
kind of wishful. I feel like that's kind of wishful on the part of
report orders, like he definitely chose the picture and the walls are closing in
finally and he knows it. But it's no I think I think it was
my choice. Yeah, no, no, no, there's no question.
Yeah. I feel like there's a little bit of projective, like he look,
he doesn't look happy in it, but you know whether that's motivated by
him feeling that the walls are closing in and all of that. I don't
know that I'm ready to go there. I do know that they've sold like
two million dollars in merch though, So so there's that roster. You're gonna
have to get arrested and we'll get your mug shot and you can make money
that way down and Georgia or someplace where they're gonna release your mug shot.
Would you go for smiling in that moment or are you gonna go for determined?
I would throw up the woo. You're gonna go full woo? Okay?
Would they allow that? I don't know. I mean, it's Atlanta,
so yeah, but I think that probably if you had your hands on
the picture, they're not going to allow that. But I don't know that
they could say very much about Look, they took a pick. Remember the
mug shot of the dude with gold spray paint Oliver's face. I mean,
this is amazing. Obviously you got some flexibility, That's all I'm saying.
But again, all you gotta do is you gotta read leg the Washington Post
article where they're all upset because they don't feel that he was accurately weighed,
and you realize that this was a for people don't like this was This was
meant to be a very festive occasion, and it just like it didn't hit
how they thought it was going to hit. His first tweet in two years,
it was simply Donald Trump dot com his website, as well as the
mug shot, under which it read election Interference, Never Surrender Donald J.
Trump dot com? Excuse me? Is the website there? And already they're
selling t shirts with it on it and mugs and posters in multiple sizes,
and they've sold a crap ton of them, Which how did you think that
was gonna go like, if if you had me again, hire me as
a consultant, I would have told you. For all the people are like,
this is it. We're gonna get a mug shot. It's gonna be
amazing. I'd have just told you he's just gonna put it on a T
shirt. Give me my money. There's your consultation. I'll be over here.
They're acting like they couldn't see it coming. All right, we'll talk
about that and much more. Pete calendar, it'll join us. It's Friday,
and boy one a week it's been. We'll get to all of it
coming up here in just a few minutes after news on the Casey O Day
radio program, hanging all right, good morning everybody, and welcome. It
is our number three here on your Friday eight h seven. You got another
headline here from NBC News him former President Trump's mugshot serves his evidence that he
is unfit to hold office. However, allies see the picture not as a
liability but as an asset. I'm telling you they're losing their damn minds over
the monetization of the mug shot, coupled with the reported weight and height not
being what they thought it was gonna be like like the victory lap isn't going
as it should. They estimate that so far they sold like two million in
merch two which I don't know how they determine that, but they probably sold
a crap ton. But to help me break it down, Pete Calendar or
Radio Buddy to the South Midday Charlotte WBT noon to three on the iHeart radio
app. Pete, how are you doing this morning? I am doing all
right. I'll do it. Connection sound. I feel like, yeah,
the phones are they're acting up with me a little bit. Yeah, it
is a little clippy there, so are you. I feel like you gotta
get arrested and get a mug shot man, like we could. We could,
we could hok a ton of merch. You know what I'm saying?
Oh no, what happened to Pete there? Well that's great, all right,
let me put them on a hold. Ross do your voodoo or whatever.
All right, he's gonna check that. Well, that's great. So
he just dropped off. He's probably in a bunker somewhere doing that. All
right, old chat. We'll chat with Pete here in just a moment.
Yeah, there's mugg in fact, I was just looking at one of Trump
Junior's tweets there he's like, don't worry. All profits go to the Legal
Defense Fund. Yeah, it's called the Free Trump Collection. All right,
Pete, how are you doing? Man? Does that sound better? Oh?
Yeah, that sounds much better. Okay, all right, very good.
I feel like it was probably on your end, not on my end,
I think. I mean, if I have to blame something somebody,
yeah, well look very well, it could be the case. I don't.
I don't even know. Man, Just every usually it's on a Monday
when stuff's melting down. Why not a Friday, we'll go with yeah,
why not? So yeah, Trump merch e three Trump Collection. This is
not going how I think opponents wanted it to go. And what I'm really
really I think it's funny. So do you see the Washington Post article?
They wrote a whole article trying to explain why the way in didn't yield the
results that they wanted and how there might be like it's a whole article this
morning. The headline is scrolling up here, what we learned about Trump's height
and wait at the Georgia booking And then they so then they talk about some
of the others that were booked, and how they don't feel that it meshes.
And then they point out the over under on the Vegas betting for his
weight, it was two hundred and seventy three and a half pounds, but
it's reported at six foot three two fifteen. Yeah, you're two fifteen plus.
Like, if you're the guy's waiting this, right, you're the you're
the guy's handicap in this one. You're going to handicap it where you think
the split is. But you're also going to adjust based on how you think
the people will be motivated, right, bet and you have to assume that
the people would bet on that or people who hate Trump, so they're going
to be motivated to go higher. So then you're going to lower that number
again to kind of sucker them in on the betting. But yeah, and
so even if they thought two seventy three and a half published, I think
of their minds, they were probably at ten pounds under that, knowing that
it would push some of the betting. Is there's So there are a couple
of aspects to this story, this little micro story inside the larger story that
I'm unclear on. Number one, I thought I thought fat shaming was not
to be done any longer. I thought, fat is beautiful and there's no
you should not be making any judgments or pronouncements or even noticing people's weight.
I thought, always knowing that it's a dude, you can do it.
Didn't you? Did you see an article where they're like, stop kidding yourself.
For men, the dad bod is not You're not allowed to go,
oh, I have a dad bod and it's okay because we're supposed to accept
ourselves. That was just seen as lazy, but for women it was okay.
So I think there is a double standard there. Okay, So all
right, well that that explains that, then double stinner. Okay. I'm
not even gonna ask about any kind of racial components to it. So let's
just But the next part is like why do you need the number? This
is another thing I don't understand for anybody who has done. Look, I've
done, you know, battled weight my entire life, and so I can
tell you a couple of things. Number One, fat weighs less than muscle.
Okay, So everybody who wants this higher number, you know you're just
going to then essentially the arguing that Trump's got a lot of muscle mass underneath
some of the the installations, shall we say, But I but I can
look at him like, I know what I weigh, I know what I
have weight. I mean at one point I was two fifty five. He's
much taller than I am, and he's as large as I was. And
so yeah, I know he doesn't weigh two fifteen. I know that.
I know what two fifteen looks like. I know what it feels like.
He does not way two fifteen. But here's the thing, why does anybody
care? I don't get it. Just look at him, right, If
you want to make the fat jokes, then you don't need the number.
I don't understand. You Just look at the visuals, which they have done,
right, They've been putting out the pictures of him playing the tennis and
the golf and all this other stuff. So why do you need the number
in order to mock the guy's weight. You've been doing just fine with the
visuals. So again, experience, man, it's part of the home I
guess they didn't get the jumpsuit, so yeah, yeah, and they so
they got the mug shot, which I was wondering the other day. You
know, who's going to make more money off of the mug shot? Is
it going to be the pro Trump people or the anti Trump people? And
I think at this point the pro Trump folks literally the campaign. I think
they've got an inside track on this, although I am kind of curious about
the branding of the line of merchandise that they have put out called never Surrender,
which he literally just did. He's surrendered to authorities. Now I understand
maybe there's the larger point of, you know, don't don't cave to the
witch hunt, don't cave to the you know, to the persecution. I
get that, but the picture you're using is literally from his surrendering, So
I don't know. I think they probably just should have done a different a
different brand name for it, or something well known to the brand name.
If you go to his website, which is on which is in the tweet,
he finally did tweets, something we were hoping on the show that he
would come back to Twitter to live tweet the debate, which would have been
amazing, but not. However, if you go to the website, it's
actually called the Free Trump Collection. Ah, let's see that makes more sense.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, But that's not the T shirt I want
and the one I want to get you. Did you see the black Trump
supporter they interviewed out front yesterday was making the rounds. I'll see. I
watched the T shirt that I think I'm gonna get for you because I do
that. Is that the one where he's interviewing a guy with a suit and
a like a wolf hat, a wolf mask or something. No. No,
In fact, here's the audio where he mentions, although it is bleeped,
what the T shirt says that picture foot hold on right one. Here
we go. I'm here to support President Trump. You want to know why
I'm here to support Brosident Trump because it unde a black me and like this
for decades, makeup, charging and put on. So I know Trump is
innocent. I support Trump. I guess this corrupt two tier justice system.
That's why I'm here to show my support. That's a black man for Trump
and I wear my shirt. Yeah, so nd words for Trump? Oh
yeah, you're looking for merch man. Uh. Well, I think the
important thing is that you know the legal defense gets funded. Uh And that's
people need to understand this too. Like you can make all the donations you
want to to any political candidate, just you know, have an idea that
the money that you're sending is going to to help his legal team. And
non Junior's uh tweet it says all proceeds going to the legal defense funds.
So I mean, they're not making funds about it. But right, good,
and that's yeah, that's appropriate. They should definitely tell people where the
money is going before they make the donations, right. I've also seen NBC
News has had a couple different takes on this, but driving the Trump mug
shot as a man who is angry and forlorn, I don't know if I
agree with that. Did he look remarkably comfortable in the Tucker interview? I'm
assuming you watch that? Yeah? I did. I watched. Did he
seems comfortable you? Yeah? I I don't know what they want. Obviously,
you get to pick your you know what your mug SHOT's gonna look like.
He didn't go. Who was the former Speaker of the House. Who
did the Smiley pick? Back in the day? Tom Delay? Tom Delay,
That's what it was. Yeah, No, it was Tom Delay,
right, And they're like, why is she smiling? And he's just like,
because you want to that's howl. Mug SHOT's gonna look. Trump is
very specific and the mug shot he's going for obviously that they're pushing. But
I don't know if I describe him as forlorn and defeated, which is you
know what they wanted. And yeah, yeah, when you go in it's
like Rick Perry, remember he did the same thing when they don't. Really,
that's that's one I'm thinking of, not Tom Okay. Yeah, it
was just like this big old grin, just smiling away and yeah, people
got all outraged about it. Yeah. I mean, when you know you're
gonna have your your mug shot done. I think what one of the attorneys,
Jenna Ellis she's made her too. Yeah, she was smiling and she's
made it her profile picture. Now. See that's the thing, like how
many posters and T shirts have you seen of famous stars? Right? Uh?
Singers or comedians Lenny Bruce for example, all of these these mug shots
David Bowie, yeah, Gary Busey, well okay that one. Yeah,
but like a lot of them are they've become iconic, you know, and
so there's a there's a there's a desire among these left Yeah, okay,
all right, So like, there is this desire among the left to like
get this out there because they think if they can use the theatrical performance that
they're going to somehow convince people that like Trump and support him that they're like,
oh, you know what, all this time, I didn't realize it,
but now I see the image and there's some music playing underneath it or
something, and so yes, the theatrical performance has now convinced me that all
of the last six years have been I've been in error, all the family
members that have disowned me, and all this, Like, there is a
sunk lost right now for people who have supported Trump and even people who have
defended Trump even if they didn't support him. People for example, like me,
I would defend Trump's supporters. I would defend Trump when he warranted defense,
And so there is a sunk cost. People are not going to now
just say, oh, you know what, the mugshot has convinced me I've
been wrong all this time. No, it's just it's proof that they are
correct. And there's a martyrdom side effect here happening, or not side effect
but direct effect happening. And I'm wondering if there is an Elba effect,
right, sort of Napoleon exiled to Elba, which is what he you know,
maybe Trump was just experiencing and now here he comes back. And I
think that people who are on the left and they're so desperate to get Trump
that you are creating even more of what you say you don't want, which
now I wonder is that actually what you don't want? And is this in
fact part of the game where you can then sort of antagonize and provoke people
into into misbehaving or acting you know, beyond a line or something. And
so this way you can then point to it, much like January sixth,
and say this is why we need to crack down even harder. Yeah,
no, that's probably not accurate. But like at every turn, man,
whether it's selling you know, a two million in merch which again I don't
know how to get to that estimate too. You know NBC with their headline,
well look at the president, right, Joe Biden his Twitter account sends
out a fundraising tweet saying, oh, apropos of nothing, but here's a
good time. This might be a good time to donate to me, and
they time it for justice. Trump's going in to surrender to the to the
jail. It's like, if you want to convey that this is not political,
you're doing it completely backwards. Yeah, now it's it removes the seriousness
of the of all of it. But but like it's totally predictable, you
know what I'm saying, Like, at no point, at no point in
my mind ahead of this, and I think he's gonna walk out, They're
going to release the mug shot and it's going to tank him in any way.
And and like there were analysts who I think honestly believe that once the
mug shot was there, to your point, yeah, the reality would set
in. And no, that's just not the case. Man. Yeah,
I don't understand that. I don't. It's this is why it's called Trump
derangement syndrome, right, it deranges thought processes, and I don't I don't
get this. I don't get it. I don't get the idea. I
don't also understand of viewing every single issue and event through the prism of Donald
Trump either, and that's pro war con by the way. Like I don't
understand why everybody has to view everything through this Trumpian lens. But this is
where we are, and I think it has a lot to do with like
laziness in the media. They just don't know how to do any other kind
of story except how does this impact Trump? Because they're just it's just a
hyper focus on the guy and uh. And I think also that they're terrified
of their political opponents. They're kind of terrified of losing control, which is,
by the way, why that guy's song I think took off that Oliver
Anthony guy, you know, Richmond, north of Richmond, Like that's a
he's what he's talking about is is is control a government that doesn't work for
most people. And you've got media focusing on this one guy and this this
horse race, constant horse race coverage, and it's not helpful at all.
And this is a known thing because and especially since like half of Washington has
been there since then. They're so old Bill Clinton and that video of him,
the deposition video, but people may not remember this. That had a
positive effect because when they pulled people on it, they they interpreted it is
this guy's been through two months now, they're just being mean, and so
it actually had a negative impact for Republicans. And I think that that is
something that they've they've remembered, and that's probably why there's a bit of timidness
within the Republican Party. But once that video of Clinton looking like he's getting
bullied, which was the interpretation of the public, was out, it actually
it started to turn the tide back in his favor. And like, that
is a lesson that is not I got about a minute. That's a lesson
that seemingly hasn't stuck with anyone in the media. That there's a lot of
people going, I don't like Trump. But at this point, it's not
just about Trump. It's about you all just being absolutely out of control with
the vengeance seeking and the double standard. Well, and this gets to the
John Locke Foundation just released its latest polling and it asks a couple of questions,
and you've got this large group I think it's a majority of the people
that are like, oh, yeah, Trump probably did something wrong and or
illegal, But an even larger group of respond and say, he's being prosecuted
for political purposes. Right, So even people who are like he didn't do
anything wrong, they still see it as a political quote witch hunt. Yeah,
now it's it's it's crazy town, man. But it will it will
continue on, and we'll parse whatever happens over the next week, next week,
but appreciate your time this morning, sir, have yourself a good one
and look for that T shirt. Okay, it's gonna be me, all
right, will thanks Katie. Yeah, I expect you to wear it posted
online. That's how it goes, All right, Peat calendar there joining us.
We're gonna take a break. Be right back on the case O Day
Radio program, keeping you connected. This is ninety four five w PTI in
the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle. All right,
well this, I think this captures the level of stupidity we're dealing with.
So so somebody I was joking with Pete about getting them the T shirt
the Trump supporter out there he's wearing. He's wearing a white shirt and on
the shirt it says n words for Trump. But then somebody jokes about setting
it out and another guy goes, no, that's inappropriate. I would point
out, looks like both of people are arguing are black and there, and
the argument is like, it's not offensive if it doesn't have the hard art
or it's different. And then the guy goes, We'll wait a second that
the guy's T shirt has when it says the N word. It says A
at the end, so it's not the hard art and the guy goes,
but he meant it, so therefore it is So I don't know what the
rule is, and I don't know that I'm in a position to know what
the rule is, quite honestly, but I'm just really confused. So I
don't know if I can get Pete the shirt or not yet. So so,
I mean, the rule is like everything else right there, it is
will it's what they wanted to be at the time to fit there, their
agenda and their needs. Like the rules constantly change, and that's the problem,
right right, But but but the shirt is obviously meant to shock,
right, we agree regardless. But I mean the guy, after hearing the
guy talk in the video, right, he sounds like he's joking around,
you know what I mean, Like he's having fun with it. You don't
think that's an actual pack out there? No, I do not, Okay,
all right, but it's like, well, hold on, if the
rule is it doesn't have the hard are, then it's meant in a positive
way, right because it's having to do these mental gymnastics is what they want
you to do, right, like that's the point of it. That's why
words don't mean what they mean anymore, like you know, chasing your own
tail over and over again. And while you're doing that, they're they're actually
pushing their own agenda forward, focusing on what they want to focus about.
Well, it's a waste of time. No, no, no, it
is. And but just be abbutently clear. It's not gonna change regardless how
I approach anything there, Like I'm not going to come to some conclusion where
I'm like, no, it all makes sense because to your point, yeah,
it's either just intentionally distractive or at least dishonest, and the way people
are arguing it and I just can't even so, but well, if that
guy's on a T shirt and he's for Trump and it's offensive. But if
Snoop Dogg says that every other word and the commercial for whatever he's sawing at
the time, that is fine, it's shut up, right. But then
if they're like, no, the spelling matters, and then you're like,
ah, but the spelling is what you say it should, and then well
that's not how they meant, you know, like the guy misspelled it accidentally,
you just well he meant it there, but he's just Domini can't spell.
So I guess who's doing the mental gymnastics. I don't know. Speaking
of mental gymnastics, this seems absolutely devious. So Krispy Kreme is debuting Pumpkin
Spies dog donuts. I think Jeff mentioned this the other day and I just
never came back around on it. This has got Now they're trying this is
this is this has gone too far. So tomorrow, which is National Dog
Day, because why not, Krispy kame a Crispy Kream will introduce Pumpkin Spice
doggie donuts. So now they gonna get your dog hooked on this crap.
Let's see, does it cost anything or is it a freebee if you come
in? Oh no, I guess you gotta buy him. Maybe there's a
sample. I don't know. According to the company, the dog treats,
which will be primarily peanut butter, so I know if people are probably concerned,
like you don't want to feed your dog that stuff or before you know
what, it's running around the house making a mess. Apparently it would be
ninety percent peanut butter, and we'll be a firm cookie or heart baked cookie
designed to appeal to intensive cheers. The dog biscuits will come in an assortment
of flavors, all with a pumpkin spice theme. So what happens if a
human eats it? It sounds like that'd probably be okay. Oh, that's
a good point. Krispy Kream doesn't allow pets inside their stores, with the
exception of service animals, so you'll have to get them in feach. I
guess your dog outside or back at home. All told, the dog friendly
biscuits will be available in three hundred and fifty six Krispy kreames. I don't
know what percentage of total that is, but most likely near where you are.
And yeah, it doesn't say where they're going to cost or if there'll
be a freebee option. So now you get your dog hooked on that crap?
Great? Absolutely great? All right, let's see here real quick,
let me fit this and I we're gonna talk to race staging. Oh yes,
and I gotta tell Ray all about the Dallas Cowboys player. He didn't
realize that when he likes something on Twitter, people can see that, which
caused a little bit of an issue for him earlier this week. So CNN
is announced that they may try the whole premium service again. If you remember,
CNN launched CNN Plus and it did not go well, to say the
very least, ended up costing some people their jobs. But apparently the media
conglomerate is calling now for a second try at a new streaming platform. This
will be called CNN Max and is set to launch here in about a month.
And I know you don't really care what's all on it, but it
is interesting after the they lost so much money on CNN Plus, Like I
can't remember what the investment was, but it was one of those numbers where
you're like, is CNN the brand even worth the amount of money that you
invested in that? And it happened so fast too, it did. It
was so fast, and it was so clear that it wasn't working, and
the amount of money that they spent up front was stupid, just stupid.
Let's see here say it will be different than the subscriber based CNN Plus in
that it will be included in the Max formerly known as Hboh great, So
I'm in some way, shape or form pain for this because I have Max.
You have Max right ross HBO Max. Oh you don't, Okay,
you got all the streaments or you don't have that one. Huh, but
how are you supposed to watch all the DC of superhero movies? I guess
I won't. Oh no, oh no, So it'll be part of the
Max. So they just did that too, where they move Max over and
it's got a bunch of the Discovery stuff on it. The only reason I
have I don't pay for it. Well I do pay for it, but
I don't pay separate for it. It's part of my AT and T service.
So there's that. But yeah, they kind of combined a bunch of
stuff. But you know, this is the model. This is again the
cable model that drove a lot of people away, where you know, there
was maybe ten channels you actually wanted, but that's not how it worked.
So either you would have the basic or you'd have the expansion of like sports
even though you wanted like two things or some of the others. And people
really like the subscription model because they get away from it. And of course
now that everyone's got their own streaming service, they've they've largely done away with
that and started to bundle. Because what was happening is you had these companies
that own like twenty cable channels, you know, maybe two that people really
wanted, but they would go to the cable providers and say, well,
you got to buy the bundle, and then that would of course be incorporated
in the bill. That irritated people, so they started to get away.
And now HBO or the parent company, basically has worked this in where again
you're paying maybe for what you want, and then a bunch of others which
will be incorporated in your bills. So you really didn't get away from anything,
all right, eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four race
stage chick from the Weather Channel. All right, So so your Cowboys guy,
right, so I don't know if you saw that. Okay, So
he is the younger brother of Ross's favorite white. Is that a favorite ride
receiver? Would you say? Yeah? I mean he used to be with
the Vikings And I don't know, but his younger brother is a secondary guy
for you guys. And uh he he woke up Monday or Tuesday morning and
was probably a little confused because he ended up having to shut his social media.
He didn't realize that when you like stuff on Twitter, people can see
that. Uh huh. And I don't know what he liked. I didn't
look well, I mean he can he he apparently is really into what what
Russell mayn't. I don't know how you're going to describe this, and you
don't google it at work. The woman, the woman is quite beautiful,
I will say that. And she didn't have she didn't have any clothes on.
But she is wearing something that one might strap to their body. Does
that make sense to you, right? Uh? Huh? Does that make
sense what she might be wearing. Yes, And apparently he's really really complimentary
of this thing that she has strapped to her body. And is it like
a gun or something? It is? It is? It is? It
is. It does have a belt ish look to it. Surely I am
innocent and confused, argue well, and I bet practice was just hell for
him that day, you know what I'm saying. On the guys got wind
of which is fun. Look, it's not like it's better than it's better
than the baseball players being lit up for like perhaps underage girlfriend kind of stuff.
Like there's nothing inherently illegal about it. But that's one of those things
where I don't know that that's a very comfort judging by how he reacted with
but how do you not know that that stuff is visible? If because he
did it wasn't like you started Twitter this week and like that was all and
he ended up having to purge a bunch of stuff. So you know what
it was, dude, was probably hacked. When you're famous and you're grilling,
right, the deviants are attracted to you like a magnet, and that's
what it was. I think that's what it was. He he literally wrote
comments about what he wanted to do too. That okay. Anyway, Well,
so you guys, you guys are a mess. I'm just saying in
general. Yeah, yeah, hopefully not getting in too much of a mess.
Is we get out of that and was pivoting whatever? Yeah, I
gotta moving along. Yeah, we've got more heat and probably ninety three to
ninety six the next few days, feeling close to our over one hundred.
There's no advisories. Maybe a passing shower thunderstorm tonight if you're heading out early,
probably between six p and midnight, and then over the weekend a better
chance on Sundays. We'll try to knock the heat down a little bit by
then and early next week some showers thuader showers and load amid eighties for high
temperatures, So two more days of a hot, humid weather and we'll jump
into the tropics too. If you're beach weeks next week, I'm likely going
to be some high surf and dangerous rip currents, beach erosion from Franklin,
which will be at our latitude sometime earlier. Middle of next week is a
hurricane, and then maybe something next week developing in the Southern Gulf, so
we'll be busy doing that. Wow. Okay, would you say temperatures are
gonna bottom out at all or well, I don't know about bottom out,
but you'll definitely feel difference, so load amid, Yeah, you feel it
the difference. All right? Yeah, alright, good, good, all
right, thank you sir. Have a good weekend. Yeah man, yeah,
yeah, there you go, Race Agic Weather Channel. We'll be back
hang on after the show is on the iHeart Radio app. Search case O
Day for the podcast on the iHeart Radio app. All right, good morning,
eight fifty three Friday is here and Jeff Bellingers here as well. Bloomberg
Update, Jeff, what's going on? Good morning, Casey. Futures suggest
stocks will start out higher this morning. Now futures are up one hundred sixty
one points at the moment, but assuming we do see early gains, they
may fade quickly depending on what Fed Chair Jerome Powell has to say when he
speaks at the Federal Reserve Symposium and Jackson Hall Powell will no doubt choose his
words carefully. Investors will be listening intently for any hints about whether further interest
rate hikes might be coming. Nearly three quarters of the truck drivers responding to

freight and an analytics there is a lot of physical and emotional stress. A
majority of drivers say nutrition, sleep and exercise or problems. They spend less
than twenty four hours a week at home. A third say they're on the
road more than forty nine hours a week. Latest quarterly results from Gap fell
short Wall Street estimates. The numbers suggest the retailer's new chief executive has a
big problem ahead. Nordstrom is the latest big retailer to mention losses from shoplifting
in its quarterly results. Earlier this week, Dick's Sporting goods Alta Beauty,

Okay, do the same, take care. Yeah, M a little
confused by this. Oh wait, hold on, I gotta grab a phone
call here. Oh it's Boston Paul. Well why not let's go ahead and
get this. Yes, Boston Paul, what do you want? But yeah,
that that Trump photo, I think it's pretty cool. And uh must
mean they need a new camera down there or something. Because every one of
those mug shots of everybody on his team has a shadow on the right side
of their face. But Trump Trump's is more details, like he leaned into
it a little bit. They must only have one light. How much can
you get away? You might know that, how much can you get away
doing in a mug shot before they're like, no, you need to stop
that. I would assume if you had your hands up something like that,
they're gonna make you do it again. Like there's a certain window for what
they want. Right. Well, I'm seeing them. I never did booking,
but I've seen them when they getting kicked off. Put him in the
cooler for a little while, bring them back out. You know, how
long do you want to be here for? You know that kind of thing.
Let's do it the right way, or we're going to be here all
day. They just set him down. There's nothing else that happens. Maybe
tune them up a little. I know how you guys will, like I
said I did, I never did any booking, but yeah, this this
things you could do to make people comply. Oh wow, okay, Ross
gonna miss the Flamingos. They're going away. Literally, you're just gonna bring
this up, and they got nineteen the nineteen Chilean Flamingos at the zoo.
I don't know, but Ross has a giant thing of sauce and I'm not
sure what he's using it for this weekend. So we go, all right,
you too, that's just a cool Well, I'll just put him on
holding in me too, hold on, yeah, get out of here.
Ross has a coincidence, right, they're getting rid of the flamingos at the
zoo this weekend, and you have an industrial size thing wing sauce, right,
complanesque because he said we were getting the air fryer the well, I
didn't say chance, yeah, chance. I was just being prepared for the
kin candy machine. I mean, you had promised. How big are the
wings? Got to be pretty decent size on them, right, I'm assuming,
although I don't think they're eating. Oh well, you know, we'll
never know because I don't know how you fact check this according Okay, So
fifteen of the Flamingos are going to the zoo in Greenville, right, Like,
nobody's gonna check that. I'm just saying we're bringing kay yeah, yeah,
that's a nice farm. They like it. Go down to Greenville.
Let's see. Okay, so they'll be joining the current flock. Oh okay,
so I'm sorry, the flock of nineteen. So there's fifteen going.
There's already nineteen at the zoo in Greenville. Well that's so many you're not
even counting, right, that's enough. You can be like if people go
to view them, like and you don't see all, what thirty four of
them? That's one of those where you be like, oh no, the
rest are in the you know, they're in the cave. They go over
there, it's fine. Oh yeah, I'm bet they're delicious. That's why
they don't say anything. But anyway, that's the thing. So on Saturday
ten to four is the Flamingo going away party. That's a zoo in Ashbro.
People are probably horrified. Whatever, it's Friday, you got the weekend
to get over it. But we'll see it back here Monday. How we going
