Open. Oh okay, Ross, I'm

11
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:47.879
kind. I can't even right now
that I'm missing it. You can't.

12
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:52.400
I can't even right now, can't
even what I I just I don't even

13
00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:57.760
know, can't function. Kid to
the show? Who U? Who are

14
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:06.120
you rooting for? Lee Trevino?
That was so fast? Why why would

15
00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:09.039
you say Lee Trevino? But because
he's the goat? No? No,

16
00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:12.520
no, no, no no no
no. Was it like did you read

17
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:15.840
something this morning? Dude? So? Really, the one of the only

18
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:21.719
golf players I know besides Tiger Woods
is Yeah, Trevino and Lee Trevina is

19
00:02:21.759 --> 00:02:23.599
because I played a golf game on
the Nest when I was a kid,

20
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:29.759
Like Lee Trevino had a game the
Nests. Yeah, okay, like he's

21
00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:32.639
on the cover. It was like
Lee Trevino something golf or whatever. Yeah,

22
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:38.599
so that's literally the only name I
know. So how was Lee Trevino

23
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:43.639
doing? I don't I'm asking you. No, no, no, I'm

24
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:51.439
asking you because you're just like a
leading the pack. Right what if I

25
00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:57.680
told you no? What if I
told you don't do it? You don't

26
00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:01.840
even know what I'm gonna tell you. He is, in fact not leading

27
00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:07.759
the pack. Oh yeah, Harmon's
leading the pack. You know that was

28
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:15.439
gonna be my next guest. Really
and then Harmon. What is Harmon's first

29
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:20.639
name? You know? Peter m
No starts with a B. I'll give

30
00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:23.479
you that, Brian. Okay,
all right, look at that. You

31
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:30.400
almost sound like you know what you're
talking about. Yeah, it's six under,

32
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:37.039
I think hold on, Sorry,
the TV's at a very weird angle,

33
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:38.759
so I have to like literally turn
all the way around. I need

34
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:47.199
to fix that. Ah, but
yeah, that's going on. So all

35
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:50.840
right, well look, no,
I'm sorry I said six hundred, he

36
00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:54.960
said eight under it's uh, it's
quite the butt whooping that's going on,

37
00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:59.199
all right, So Ross wants to
go home and see if Lee Trevino wins

38
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:08.039
it. I'm kind of of the
same opinion British Open's on Women's World Cups,

39
00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:16.120
going on, what are we even
doing? But alas it's Friday and

40
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:20.120
we got to do a show.
By the way, I've read three reviews

41
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:30.160
this morning of the new Barbie movie
and honestly, yeah, I just excuse

42
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:35.959
me, so they're coughing because I'm
laughing. I just assumed it was gonna

43
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:42.879
be dull drums and stupidity, and
but like in a good way, just

44
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:51.199
you know, just Hollywood weirdness,
because like the whole thing kind of creeps

45
00:04:51.240 --> 00:04:56.399
me out a little. But like
I saw a couple of people going,

46
00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:59.319
oh, no, the movie's good. So I'm like, well, you

47
00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:04.800
know what, maybe I should uh, maybe I should read a review that

48
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:12.560
actually covers what happens in the movie. Have you read any of this?

49
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:17.720
Ross? Have you read an actual
rundown of the Barbie movie? Like you

50
00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:21.480
have just seen some Twitter posts?
Okay, and I don't I don't actually

51
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:24.360
have any way to confirm what I'm
reading is true, you know what I

52
00:05:24.399 --> 00:05:29.120
mean? Alright, alright, alright, but what was the um what was

53
00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:33.240
the vibe you got from the Twitter
post super feminist movie? Ah? Yes,

54
00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:38.920
yes, yes, Ken is like
they're saying, like borderline autistic or

55
00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:44.079
something like he's listen an embarrassment and
it's just, you know, a fight

56
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:49.480
against the patriarchy. The entire movie
is that, just like a background fight

57
00:05:49.560 --> 00:06:01.360
against it. It like literally is
a plot point. So like the so

58
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:06.279
there's two worlds. There's the world
of Barbie and then there's reality, right,

59
00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:15.480
and like they are able to travel
in between would be the best way

60
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:20.160
that I've seen it described. And
like, Ken, who is would you

61
00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:26.480
say borderline autistic? Judging by the
little clip I saw, that's probably pretty

62
00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:32.639
accurate. Basically, he like hears
about the patriarchy and he's like that sounds

63
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:39.720
awesome. I would love to run
things, even though he comes across as

64
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:46.959
a little bit of an idiot,
and so he liked he like calls on

65
00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:55.759
his fellow bros To like implement that
in Barbie World or Barbie Land. I

66
00:06:55.839 --> 00:07:05.279
guess as it's described. And then
Barbie and her strong, strong female characters

67
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:11.839
have to like battle against that.
This sounds absolutely horrible, it sounds awful.

68
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:17.639
It's just you know what it sounds. It sounds wildly unnecessary, I

69
00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:24.720
guess would be the best way to
describe that. Like it's it's one thing

70
00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:29.839
to have that kind of like humming
in the background, because I just assumed

71
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:38.560
there was gonna be that element right
where Barbie is Captain Marvel. Yeah,

72
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:41.800
but you expected it sort of to
be in the background, right exactly.

73
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:46.319
I assume there's the Captain Marvel,
Barbie's Captain Marvel element, but not for

74
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:50.759
it to actually be the plot of
the movie. It's just like, I'm

75
00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:55.480
so sad. Everyone sounds strike,
I guess would be the best way I

76
00:07:55.519 --> 00:08:03.319
would describe that. So Margo Robbie
suddenly finds herself victims to the feeling of

77
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:07.600
the other realm, the other realm
being the patriarchy which Ken hear us about

78
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:16.160
and then tries to implement in the
Barbie land And excuse me, um,

79
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:20.720
that's where they run from there,
and there's there's there's like multiple Kens.

80
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:26.000
It's almost like a Chad situation.
All right, you know, let me

81
00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:30.399
do this, geez, excuse me, um, let me do this.

82
00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:39.320
I'm literally allergic to the plot.
Here, let me give you a rundown

83
00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:48.759
of what this movie is supposed to
be, what the actual storyline is,

84
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:54.559
as I understand, I have not
seen it. I know you're gonna be

85
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:58.519
shocked. There's a there's a strong
chance I don't, but I am happy

86
00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:05.960
to share the h the cliff notes
with you, and we'll do it next

87
00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:13.519
here on the case O Day radio
program, Your Day Smarter one oh six

88
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:31.600
one FM Talk and news Talk WPTI
More with Casey starts now, no,

89
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:35.200
no, no, no. That's
what's so interesting about it, because it

90
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:41.600
used to be if that was even
like a single element of the plot,

91
00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:48.240
that would have been the marketing.
Whereas now um as, And again I

92
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:56.399
haven't seen the movie, but when
I saw people commenting on it yesterday,

93
00:09:56.279 --> 00:10:03.000
I spent I don't know, probably
twenty minutes or so going out and seeking

94
00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:13.159
IMDb's rundown of it and the couple
reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and whatnot, because

95
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:22.000
look, Twitter's Twitter, right,
and you never know whether it's exaggerated or

96
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:26.639
not. As best I can tell, the entire plot of the Barbie movie

97
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:35.840
is Ken Ken here, excuse me, Ken, Here's about this awesome thing

98
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:45.200
called the patriarchy and decides they need
to implement that in Barbie Land because apparently

99
00:10:45.519 --> 00:10:52.679
Barbie and her friends and Skipper running
everything and and like that's the plot of

100
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:58.080
the movie. And I have seen
a crap ton of marketing on this and

101
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:05.039
I haven't seeing that communicated. I
guess is the point that I'm making?

102
00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:07.639
What is uh right? What were
you saying? You're uh, we were

103
00:11:07.639 --> 00:11:09.759
watching. I can't remember what you
were watching, but you know it went

104
00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:15.279
it went to commercial, and I
think it was a flow and progressive and

105
00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:18.000
you know, it's a big Barbie
house and everything was Barbie and Mark you

106
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:20.000
mentioned it while we were watching it. She said, I've never seen a

107
00:11:20.039 --> 00:11:26.600
movie with this amount of marketing.
Everything right now is Barbie themed, right,

108
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:28.559
Like it's pure. It looks like
Barbie. You're seeing all over products,

109
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:33.200
it's everywhere. The marketing for this
movie is is is It's ridiculous?

110
00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:35.679
Well, and yeah, and you
know what, I don't even begrudge them

111
00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:39.879
that because there I don't either.
I mean, it's super easy to market

112
00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:48.559
it, that's exactly it. And
them the secondary profiting right because you literally

113
00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:54.879
have all of the merch right there
is the ultimate product placement, right,

114
00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:58.960
the merch already exists. So I
got look, I got no beef there.

115
00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:05.279
It doesn't A Barbie movie doesn't doesn't
appeal to me, right right,

116
00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:07.879
Well, like Marky said, well
we saw the commercial. We started having

117
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.720
this conversation. Was, Yeah,
I'm seeing the marketing for it everywhere,

118
00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:18.759
but I have no idea what this
movie is about. So so when I

119
00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:26.799
see people summarizing in you know,
the length that a standard tweet is,

120
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:33.080
and they make it sound like that, it sounds so incredibly over the top,

121
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:41.519
to the point where, look,
a lot of people obviously want to

122
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:50.559
be first to the party when it
comes to their hot take on a particular

123
00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:54.799
movie. And you know, we
try to extract that information, little nuggets

124
00:12:54.840 --> 00:13:00.799
of info, and Ross and I
have spent in an order amount of time

125
00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:05.919
over the years talking about it,
right, little nuggets from the Star Wars,

126
00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:11.080
the latest three Star Wars two.
Um, well, I mean you

127
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:18.200
name it. But so in your
face and over the top is still somewhat

128
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:24.480
unusual. Right. There's there's elements
to movies where you're just like, are

129
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:28.679
you serious? That's part of it. And and and we can talk about

130
00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:37.320
Hollywood and like their complete lack of
giving a crap about appealing to the whitest

131
00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:43.679
audience. So when I saw people
claiming that was the plot point, even

132
00:13:43.720 --> 00:13:48.080
in this crazy world that we live
in, or or the plot, I

133
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:54.320
should say, I'm like, there's
no way it's that, do you know

134
00:13:54.320 --> 00:14:00.840
what I mean? Even with the
even with the injection of all of the

135
00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:07.039
woke crap that we've seen, I
like, and I brought up Captain Captain

136
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:11.399
Marvel is the biggest example, but
the plot of the movie is not.

137
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:20.840
Captain Marvel is just inherently from the
get go Awesome needs no training, men

138
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:24.759
suck any of the rest. It's
like, it's like smaller elements in the

139
00:14:24.799 --> 00:14:31.559
movie. What people are describing with
the Barbie movie is the movie, and

140
00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:35.080
that's what's incredible to me. But
I have not read anything in the last

141
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:46.320
twenty four hours that deviates from that. That's what That's what blows me away.

142
00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:52.840
So there's two worlds. There's the
Barbie world and then there's the regular

143
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:58.679
world. And Ken here's about the
patriarchy, and it is like, we

144
00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:03.919
got to bring that to the Barbie
world, which begs the question, is

145
00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:13.120
there some sort of aggressive matriarchy in
the Barbie World, And if so,

146
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:20.440
how is that not equally as problematic
as people describe the patriarchy? If I

147
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:26.600
could just analyze a Barbie movie for
a moment, I mean, it's already

148
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:31.879
a tough place to exist. Everyone's
a smoke show and nobody's got genitals right,

149
00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:39.799
which has to be frustrating, I
guess would be my take there.

150
00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:54.840
But to make that the literal narrative
of the movie just seems so incredibly out

151
00:15:54.840 --> 00:16:00.120
of touch and over the top.
But that's just me. Look, has

152
00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:02.919
anyone when does that? Did the
movie? The movie's open? Right?

153
00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:07.480
It? What? It came out
yesterday? I don't even know. I

154
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:15.000
saw an email from one of our
salespeople. There's some like Barbie premiere party

155
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:18.559
that one of our other stations is
doing. Did you want tickets to that?

156
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.639
By the way, apparently there's extra
tickets. Ross you want me to

157
00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:26.399
put you on the list? You
want to go? Are you really?

158
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:34.000
It's said that tomorrow is tomorrow's my
seventeenth wedding anniversary. Oh congrats seventeen seventeen.

159
00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:41.759
Ow I mean this seriously, congratulations. I can't think of a better

160
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:51.399
way to celebrate, right, smart
talk all DAYPTI in the Triad and one

161
00:16:51.480 --> 00:16:57.360
oh six one FM talk in the
Triangle. All right, good morning,

162
00:16:57.399 --> 00:17:06.720
it is six thirty five. You're
on the Case of Day radio program.

163
00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:10.400
People send him met Friday emails.
There's no way, there's no other way

164
00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:15.319
to describe it. I'm obviously I'm
aware of it because I posted it on

165
00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:19.480
the social media yesterday. Ross did
you see the Do you see the video

166
00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:26.000
on the social media of the person
rubbing like banana cream pile over their naked

167
00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:29.279
body in the Delhi section of the
groceries? You know what? I missed

168
00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:32.920
that one. Oh, we'll go
to the Twitter account. Oh, good

169
00:17:32.920 --> 00:17:37.039
lord, seriously, you didn't see
that. No, I did not see

170
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:41.119
this yesterday. I kind of stayed
off Twitter for the most part yesterday.

171
00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:45.119
Well, you know what, that's
a good decision most any day. Yeah,

172
00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:47.759
look at your banana pudding? Is
this all over his bare ass?

173
00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:52.680
Is that a here or she?
I believe it's a she? Oh my

174
00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:57.960
god? Watch the video. Go
ahead, So you're just seeing the screen

175
00:17:59.039 --> 00:18:02.279
cap right now. I'm watching the
video. Oh yeah, but I was

176
00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:06.279
just seeing it from behind and then
they turned around. Yeah, and I'm

177
00:18:06.319 --> 00:18:14.319
still not sure. I'll tell you
them the greatest. Yeah, you don't

178
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:18.440
even like you don't even like the
deli over at Walmart, right, it's

179
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:22.319
like a beef for you with the
pizza and all that. I don't really

180
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:26.839
have an issue with the deli or
not the deli, but like what we

181
00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:29.519
had this discussion one day. Oh
well yeah, that was the one time

182
00:18:29.559 --> 00:18:33.160
I went there. The guy was
wearing he was vaping in front of the

183
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:41.640
deli counter, wearing socks, crocs, a wife beater and a BMW hat

184
00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:48.160
but wearing clothes. Yes, so
arguably that is that is mildly better this

185
00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:55.839
video is. It's uncomfortable. There
is one saving grace though, like later

186
00:18:55.880 --> 00:18:57.799
in the video it's like five minutes
long. Yeah, they really like cake,

187
00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:03.599
do they? Though, I mean
they're rubbing the cake all over their

188
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:07.240
body. They're probably you know,
they're probably dieting and they just fell off

189
00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:11.319
the wagon. Does that really Does
that look like a diet person or well

190
00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:15.319
it looks like somebody that they should
be dieting. Yes, okay, yes,

191
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:18.039
And they were like, oh,
I need all the sugar. I'm

192
00:19:18.079 --> 00:19:22.319
pretty sure that's not how you get
the sugar in the system. I'm not

193
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:25.920
even as you know, I'm not
even somebody who likes sweets, and I

194
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:29.200
know that that is not the proper
way to good Lord, they're behind the

195
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:33.960
counter. Yeah, towards the end
of the video they go like in more

196
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:41.680
into like the display items and like
the act of God is there's like this

197
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:49.119
temporary cardboard display they're selling like Hawaiian
buns or something out of and thankfully they

198
00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:57.319
position themselves from the cameras slightly behind
that while they're rubbing the cake into the

199
00:19:57.359 --> 00:20:02.960
most sensitive of regions. I guess
it would be the best way to describe

200
00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:08.000
that. So, you know,
thank you to whoever at the grocery store

201
00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:14.599
is like, we need to set
up this temporary display because it does block

202
00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:19.319
some of the action, and you're
gonna want the action blocked, is the

203
00:20:19.359 --> 00:20:23.759
point that I'm making. But yeah, that thing goes on for like five

204
00:20:23.799 --> 00:20:26.279
minutes. All right, Well that's
going in the back. Ross was telling

205
00:20:26.279 --> 00:20:30.400
me something off. They are so
and I mean this. I mean this

206
00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:36.319
sincerely because I got tons of friends
people I know that are married, long

207
00:20:36.440 --> 00:20:40.480
term relationships anything. And I mean
this when I say, because you just

208
00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:45.119
mentioned you and the wife are having
the what seventeenth anniversary? Yeah, we've

209
00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:52.720
been together eighteen years but married seventeen. This is this is not radio fluff.

210
00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:59.559
I have other than you know,
humorous joking stuff. Right, I've

211
00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:06.400
never heard Ross ever say anything derogatory
about his relationship. And I mean that

212
00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:12.519
a thousand percent to the point where
I'm just like, it's so far in

213
00:21:12.599 --> 00:21:19.079
away from anybody else I know,
and so I mean sincere congratulations, But

214
00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:25.319
also I'm like, how is that
even possible? We have? We have

215
00:21:25.359 --> 00:21:30.039
a really good relationship. You know
how I am about I'm very unconfident about

216
00:21:30.079 --> 00:21:34.200
most things in my life, like
even the work in the radio show.

217
00:21:34.279 --> 00:21:37.799
And I'm constantly just as every day
is the last dat, yeah, and

218
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:42.400
like every other Like I've always been
an unconfident person. I am so secure

219
00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:47.400
in my relationship. We have such
a good relationship and it's an absolute blessing.

220
00:21:47.400 --> 00:21:51.240
And my wife is a saint.
It's it's it's literally it's it's amazing

221
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:55.640
and and and I mean that sincerely. The one thing that really keeps me

222
00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:57.160
up, well, there's two things
that keep me up at night when I

223
00:21:57.160 --> 00:22:00.000
tossed in turn, I can't sleep. One, I wonder who's gonna watch?

224
00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:03.680
And Mark he's the same way we
are. We're worried about who's going

225
00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:10.359
to take care of our child Lincoln
when we're gone, right, because he's

226
00:22:10.359 --> 00:22:12.400
always going to need somebody to watch
him, And that really, honestly keeps

227
00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:18.279
me up at night. It's it's
scary. The other thing that really makes

228
00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:23.680
me nervous at night is the thought
of and I have these thoughts is what

229
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:26.680
am I going to do when she's
gone? Or what is she going to

230
00:22:26.759 --> 00:22:30.559
do when I'm going? Like it
scares me because I really want to.

231
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:33.599
I want to appreciate every second I
have with her because I realize that time

232
00:22:33.680 --> 00:22:37.200
is fleeting, and it makes me
sad thinking about one day I'm not going

233
00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:42.519
to have her or she's not gonna
have me. Do you guys? Um?

234
00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:48.200
But do you are? You are? Are you guys a couple that

235
00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:53.319
takes anniversaries like very seriously? We
don't. We also don't take Valentine's Day

236
00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:57.319
seriously right right? And this is
what I'm asking too, But birthday birthdays

237
00:22:57.359 --> 00:23:00.240
too, it's the same. What
we like birthday birthdays are different. But

238
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:04.160
what we don't like the holidays where
you're supposed to celebrate each other. We

239
00:23:04.279 --> 00:23:08.920
what we like doing is random gifts
throughout the year. I think random gifts,

240
00:23:10.119 --> 00:23:11.799
unexpected gifts are the best kind because
you know, like you know,

241
00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:15.519
you're not doing it because there's a
date on the calendar right right, So

242
00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:17.160
if you get a present in the
mail, like, oh my god,

243
00:23:17.160 --> 00:23:18.759
I got you this jewelry for no
reason, you're like, wow, I

244
00:23:18.759 --> 00:23:26.319
think you appreciate that more a thousand
percent. Absolutely, but it doesn't feel

245
00:23:26.359 --> 00:23:30.480
it doesn't feel demanded upon. You
can celebrate the seventeenth year wedding anniversary tomorrow

246
00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:37.119
on the Hayes for Sheriff twitch channel. It's Hayes for Sheriff one word mark.

247
00:23:37.160 --> 00:23:40.119
He's going to be playing Red Dead
Redemption to Red Dead for the first

248
00:23:40.119 --> 00:23:44.680
time with her character. She's made
up Harry Cherry, so it's Dick Bickham's

249
00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:49.640
and Harry Cherry tomorrow on the Hayes
for Sheriff twitch channel, celebrating seventeen years

250
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.000
married. It's gonna be an event. Waity, wait, hold on,

251
00:23:53.119 --> 00:23:56.480
you just said you don't like calendar
dates and for celebration, and then you

252
00:23:56.559 --> 00:23:59.680
just well, I'm not doing this
for us. We're doing it for the

253
00:23:59.680 --> 00:24:03.440
people. Oh, we're doing it
for the for the community. Are you

254
00:24:03.440 --> 00:24:07.480
guys gonna pretend to eat emojis.
I did it last week with the olive

255
00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:10.319
Garden Brenton really, and I'm thinking
about making yeah, because he could do

256
00:24:10.359 --> 00:24:11.799
like one hundred bus and like they
pop up on the screen and I was

257
00:24:11.839 --> 00:24:15.880
like, oh, brand sticks,
yam, nom nom nom. And I

258
00:24:15.960 --> 00:24:18.759
was thinking about doing it with other
food too. Probably it's a lot of

259
00:24:18.759 --> 00:24:19.599
busy work and you have to program
it. But I was saying, like

260
00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:25.359
chicken wings, I don't know,
like protein powder, I've I have no

261
00:24:25.440 --> 00:24:27.680
idea, but it's probably that probably
wouldn't look like protein powder on screen,

262
00:24:27.720 --> 00:24:30.519
so I would have to do like
a tub of muscle milk or so I

263
00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:37.759
don't know powder like oh powder,
yam, wait a whole lot. Harry

264
00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:40.519
Cherry because that's your character. She
came up with this morning where I was

265
00:24:40.599 --> 00:24:41.839
driving to work where were texting.
She's like, what should have my character

266
00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:44.279
every name? I'm like, I
don't know. She's like, what about

267
00:24:44.279 --> 00:24:47.799
Harry Cherry? And I'm like,
that's great because that sounds like it's a

268
00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:52.920
dude's name, but obviously she's not
a dude, but she's a dude in

269
00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:56.799
the game, right, because that's
your character. So it's very twenty twenty

270
00:24:56.839 --> 00:24:59.759
three so it's sort of all works. So it's Dick Bickham's and Harry Cherry

271
00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:03.839
to sorrow on the Hayes for Sheriff
of Twitch Hill can't wait to see it

272
00:25:03.960 --> 00:25:07.599
seventeen years strong? Right, No, no, no, you got you

273
00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:11.960
gotta that's the hook. You gotta
get the hook in there, man,

274
00:25:11.519 --> 00:25:15.480
So you like guilt people into watching
that? Well, I told her too

275
00:25:15.599 --> 00:25:18.680
this morning, because you know she
works in marketing and social media. I

276
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:19.920
said, well, I'm gonna need
you to make a graphic for the stream

277
00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:23.039
and then a slide show for the
stream, and they need you to make

278
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:26.440
a pre and post video for the
stream, and then can you do a

279
00:25:26.480 --> 00:25:30.200
promotional event before the stream? And
She's just like, what the hell is

280
00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:36.359
happening? But you know, teamwork
makes the dream work. So I'm very

281
00:25:36.359 --> 00:25:42.039
excited tomorrow. It does sound like
a dude's name. However, I'm also

282
00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:48.000
of a child from time to time. I don't know. I don't know

283
00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:51.839
if people have picked up on that. Occasionally, Ross and I act a

284
00:25:51.839 --> 00:25:56.559
little immature here on the show.
And also the first vibe I got from

285
00:25:56.640 --> 00:26:07.279
that name and now I feel bad
is there's also like a vulgar that's well

286
00:26:07.319 --> 00:26:11.559
that's the point. Okay, So
it's dig Bickham's Yeah, no, I

287
00:26:11.640 --> 00:26:17.359
know. Yeah dude. The first
time I played Red Dead and I'm in

288
00:26:17.400 --> 00:26:21.440
that scene where you're like in the
opening spoiler alert. Well here's the thing.

289
00:26:21.480 --> 00:26:23.839
So, because the tutorial of that
game is like three hours long and

290
00:26:23.839 --> 00:26:26.200
you can't get out of the mountains, I'm going to play that today and

291
00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:30.440
tomorrow so she doesn't have to do
it. So when we start playing tomorrow,

292
00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:32.839
it'll just be free room, open
world. Otherwise it would be a

293
00:26:33.319 --> 00:26:36.119
because those wolves at me up,
yeah, do you know what I'm saying?

294
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:41.359
Just like because you're learning to you're
you're learning to aim and shoot.

295
00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:44.359
At that point, well, I
had to fight them off one stream without

296
00:26:44.359 --> 00:26:47.759
a weapon because somebody of a viewer
clicked the no no, you know,

297
00:26:48.160 --> 00:26:52.359
no gun button and then I had
to fight them off with my fists.

298
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:59.519
I got devoured for like an hour
straight. I mean, I had a

299
00:26:59.559 --> 00:27:04.599
gun and it didn't go well for
a while. So so what so you

300
00:27:04.599 --> 00:27:07.720
guys are doing that tomorrow? What
time is that? It would be an

301
00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:15.160
eight thirty pm Eastern Standard time on
the channel. Oh wow, Okay,

302
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:23.759
after the boy goes to bed,
n no, I'm numb. It's breadsticks.

303
00:27:23.839 --> 00:27:29.759
Yeah, dude, I think I
watched like five different, five different

304
00:27:29.839 --> 00:27:41.680
versions of that of various individuals seriously
doing that NPC thing, which I you

305
00:27:41.720 --> 00:27:47.200
know, if if I had to
make a list of things that I wish,

306
00:27:47.279 --> 00:27:51.799
I didn't know that's one of them. Immediately, however, I fell

307
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:56.599
into this rabbit hole. But then
I saw like follow up posts by like

308
00:27:56.920 --> 00:28:02.559
the two of the women, one
the one we talked about, and one

309
00:28:02.759 --> 00:28:07.240
this black woman whose name is Cherry
something Cherry I can't remember. She made

310
00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:12.920
like three grand. The other chick
made like six grand in an hour in

311
00:28:14.039 --> 00:28:18.319
an hour doing it, And you
know what, at that point, I'm

312
00:28:18.319 --> 00:28:23.880
just like, maybe we're doing it
wrong, sitting here grinding a way doing

313
00:28:23.880 --> 00:28:30.039
a three hour show five days a
week, where we sure as hell dont

314
00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:34.880
makes six grand an hour. But
then it also like communicated to me that

315
00:28:34.920 --> 00:28:41.559
there's all these people who find that
cash worthy and it's not even from like

316
00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:48.839
a cynical standpoint. The problem is
is the two women who made like three

317
00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:56.079
and six grand respectively are also only
fans porn actresses, So unfortunately, I

318
00:28:56.160 --> 00:29:06.039
think you have to have that background. But sixth grand got transferred for sitting

319
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:10.279
there pretending to eat emojis for an
hour. You see some of these videos

320
00:29:10.319 --> 00:29:12.559
and compared to the first one we
showed with the elf girl, who was

321
00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:17.720
also made more than six grands.
Yeah, but like you watch some of

322
00:29:17.759 --> 00:29:22.079
these other videos where they're trying to
do that and it's it's just not as

323
00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:25.880
good. Like you you could tell, like not to say like there's an

324
00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:27.960
abundant amount of talent needed to do
that, right to act like an NPC,

325
00:29:29.079 --> 00:29:32.839
but like there is a vast difference
between the video we played of her

326
00:29:32.880 --> 00:29:36.119
that we posted at a Casey on
the Radio Twitter and like some of these

327
00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:37.640
other ones, like this one girl
yesterday there was two of them. The

328
00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:41.240
one on the left looked like she
was having a seizure. Yeah, okay,

329
00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:42.880
that was just gonna mention that.
So those two the one who because

330
00:29:42.920 --> 00:29:47.960
I think she's being shocked or something. I have no idea, but I

331
00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:52.559
guess if that's your thing, more
power to you. But I don't enjoy

332
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:56.279
it unless it's like you're being taste, you know what I mean? Like

333
00:29:56.599 --> 00:29:59.079
whatever, well, maybe that's what
you get. Maybe you should have your

334
00:29:59.119 --> 00:30:03.279
wife taste you tomorrow. Do you
want to borrow a taser because I could

335
00:30:03.279 --> 00:30:04.960
get ahold, we have one.
I got her one for a birthday.

336
00:30:06.240 --> 00:30:11.400
Really, I'm just saying, man, if you know, it's for the

337
00:30:11.079 --> 00:30:17.160
it's for the budget, it's for
the fam. What is the how many

338
00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:22.880
bits does it take to have you
taste one hundred thousand bits? So that

339
00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:26.279
would be roughly a thousand dollars wait
for a thousand you'll get taste on straight

340
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:29.359
for those. Well, I'm not
saying I'm gonna do it. I'm saying

341
00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:30.480
if I did do, it's probably
what I would do. It would be

342
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:34.400
a ridiculous amount of money. Yeah, you should go higher than that because

343
00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:38.559
somebody literally would pay that. I'm
not saying that I would organize a group

344
00:30:38.799 --> 00:30:45.000
of fundraiser on online to make that
happen. I'm just saying you should probably

345
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:48.079
set your sides higher. Wait.
Wait, is that the same amount it

346
00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:52.920
takes you to wear like a lebron
hat or something that's completely different. That's

347
00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:56.599
time spent. Those are redemptions.
Oh okay, so you watch for an

348
00:30:56.680 --> 00:31:00.319
x amount of time and then you
can have me do certain things. See,

349
00:31:00.440 --> 00:31:03.880
okay, it's very complicated, all
right, So that's a thing tomorrow

350
00:31:04.400 --> 00:31:08.839
you know if you want on your
on your Saturday, all right eight eight

351
00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:17.960
eight nine three four seven eight seven
four h thirty huh eight thirty Eastern.

352
00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:22.559
Just for people wondering, all right, coming up on the show, we

353
00:31:22.640 --> 00:31:30.119
had more hearings up in DC,
and everything's insane. Everybody's in denial.

354
00:31:30.680 --> 00:31:37.079
Nobody cares from a network standpoint,
I noticed, but we will give you

355
00:31:37.119 --> 00:31:45.680
the details on that. Also an
update on the US soldiers, like I'm

356
00:31:45.799 --> 00:31:51.319
running to North Korea because a little
more is coming out with that right now.

357
00:31:51.400 --> 00:31:56.599
Eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four. We'll be back

358
00:31:56.599 --> 00:32:04.319
here in just a few keeping you
connected this WPTI in the Triad and one

359
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:13.240
six one FM talk in the Triangle. All right, good morning, it

360
00:32:13.359 --> 00:32:21.039
is uh six fifty six here on
the CaCO Day Radio program. So the

361
00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:27.400
um the fallout, I guess of
the visor plant. They're in Rocky Mount

362
00:32:27.440 --> 00:32:30.319
taking the direct hit of the tornado. Again look at it the pictures of

363
00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:37.440
this, and there was some videos
some dude took outside their yard or you

364
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:42.400
know, pointing out in their yard
show and they literally their roof being ripped

365
00:32:42.400 --> 00:32:46.599
away. I mean the fact that
nobody was killed, uh in this uh

366
00:32:46.680 --> 00:32:55.319
in this tornado down around Rocky Mount
is amazing, But when you look at

367
00:32:55.359 --> 00:33:00.519
this, uh, this visor plant
down there, it turned into this dumb

368
00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:07.680
debate over what all was inside.
And I probably got fifteen emails yesterday from

369
00:33:07.960 --> 00:33:19.880
folks who in two cases people who
worked there. And what that means for

370
00:33:20.160 --> 00:33:27.400
the medical I guess the drugs supply
here in the US is pretty crazy.

371
00:33:27.559 --> 00:33:30.920
That the the negative thought when you
sit here and look at this, and

372
00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:37.279
I'll give you the details to kick
off the next hour, is you know,

373
00:33:37.400 --> 00:33:39.759
you got it's not just COVID vaccine
or any of the rest. And

374
00:33:39.880 --> 00:33:46.119
I understand that that took over the
social media, but I didn't realize what

375
00:33:46.319 --> 00:33:59.519
percentage of Fiser's supply of intravenous medicines
and various other stuff that that particular Facility

376
00:33:59.599 --> 00:34:06.039
Act really provided, and it's pretty
substantial. But also there was the idea

377
00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:15.199
that there was opioid stuff and ketamine
and others. And obviously, and I

378
00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:20.599
understand why Feiser is not being one
hundred percent on what they're saying, but

379
00:34:20.800 --> 00:34:24.880
you know, the idea that these
drugs which addicts crave may have been literally

380
00:34:24.960 --> 00:34:30.880
dispersed into the woods. The security
issue that comes along with that, so

381
00:34:30.719 --> 00:34:37.039
I'll give you the follow up on
that coming up here in our number two.

382
00:34:37.079 --> 00:34:40.599
Also, Pete Callender joins us our
number three eight oh five. Lots

383
00:34:40.639 --> 00:35:24.880
to get into with him, so
hang on, all right, good morning

384
00:35:24.960 --> 00:35:32.559
man, Welcome. It is our
number two here on the case O Day

385
00:35:32.760 --> 00:35:37.840
Radio program. So during the break, I went to the old refrigerator.

386
00:35:39.440 --> 00:35:46.480
Whoever works at Gatorade in the variety
packs the plastic ones from Walmart? Could

387
00:35:46.519 --> 00:35:52.400
you just stop putting the orange ones
in there. I've got red, I've

388
00:35:52.400 --> 00:35:58.480
got lemon lime, I've got the
blue, I even uh, there's one

389
00:35:58.480 --> 00:36:02.599
other in there. We don't need
the orange. However, it's too good

390
00:36:02.639 --> 00:36:08.000
of a deal when you look at
buying them individually. So sorry, just

391
00:36:08.199 --> 00:36:15.960
using my platform for the betterment of
society because unfortunately that's all that's left in

392
00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:29.199
there. All right, m dude, So you thought Cocaine Bear was good,

393
00:36:30.079 --> 00:36:35.039
We got Cocaine Sharks coming up on
the show. Oh yeah, yeah,

394
00:36:35.159 --> 00:36:39.800
yeah, yeah. That's a Friday
thing that's happening here in just a

395
00:36:39.800 --> 00:36:45.320
little bit. But let me get
back to um as I mentioned, you

396
00:36:45.360 --> 00:36:49.000
know, actual news. Although cocaine
Sharks, if you're headed to the beach,

397
00:36:49.199 --> 00:36:53.719
might actually be actual news to you
probably don't want to tussle with them.

398
00:36:55.639 --> 00:37:01.519
So as you you you look the
impact of this e F three tornado

399
00:37:02.119 --> 00:37:09.400
that, among other things, severely
damage the Fiser plant. They're in Rocky

400
00:37:09.480 --> 00:37:17.079
Mount, and it's fascinating because I've
had multiple people too who worked there,

401
00:37:17.840 --> 00:37:22.400
and quite a few who used to
work there when it was I guess it

402
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:28.760
used to be Abbott. Again,
I don't know, so understand that my

403
00:37:28.880 --> 00:37:34.840
sourcing here is although these are listeners
that I know and recognize. So I'll

404
00:37:34.880 --> 00:37:37.400
take it for what it's worth.
And I didn't really get into it yesterday

405
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:40.280
because I don't want to be the
guy on the radio starting a thing.

406
00:37:42.000 --> 00:37:46.960
But I mean that's a real concern. Forget the you know, the COVID

407
00:37:47.079 --> 00:37:53.199
vaccine narrative and all of that that
permeated on social media. But you know,

408
00:37:53.320 --> 00:37:59.159
you go through there, there's a
lot of among other things, there

409
00:37:59.199 --> 00:38:07.280
are um but what damn it,
what is the term I'm looking for?

410
00:38:07.280 --> 00:38:15.079
Basically there there are regulated narcotics in
there, and you know, the idea

411
00:38:15.159 --> 00:38:21.159
that this tornado went through and literally, in addition to damaging the facility,

412
00:38:22.000 --> 00:38:27.719
literally spread this stuff around the last
thing you needed was like opioid addicts crawling

413
00:38:27.760 --> 00:38:30.800
around the woods nearby. Obviously,
officials have enough to deal with. But

414
00:38:30.880 --> 00:38:37.000
now that we're we're we're past that
to some extent, we can get into

415
00:38:37.079 --> 00:38:42.800
it. Um but you know the
list of things that people told me literally

416
00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:49.119
were in this warehouse. UM.
You know, it sounded obviously problematic.

417
00:38:49.239 --> 00:38:57.280
However, when you look at the
impact that that could have, UM this,

418
00:38:57.400 --> 00:39:02.039
you know, this facility has over
three thousand employees. I had no

419
00:39:02.159 --> 00:39:15.199
idea, and what is this?
Oh? Now I got a Walmart employee

420
00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:20.480
mad at me. Stop acting.
If we're the one who put the package

421
00:39:20.519 --> 00:39:29.039
together, we just sell it,
all right. I don't know if you

422
00:39:29.119 --> 00:39:39.000
know this. Walmart has an incredible
amount of control over what companies do and

423
00:39:39.199 --> 00:39:49.360
what they package for sale. And
I only know this because one of the

424
00:39:49.400 --> 00:39:52.320
things I used to do on the
radio is I used to do a hunting

425
00:39:52.360 --> 00:39:58.800
and fishing show in Minnesota and me
and a co host by name of Tim

426
00:39:58.880 --> 00:40:02.079
Lesmeister's is great outdoor rider. Tim's
great, great dude, one of the

427
00:40:02.559 --> 00:40:09.920
one of the nicest best people I've
ever known, and it comes across on

428
00:40:09.960 --> 00:40:14.760
the radio. So we were doing
this hunting and fishing show and it literally

429
00:40:14.880 --> 00:40:19.280
was syndicated, like thirty six stations. Was great. It was one of

430
00:40:19.280 --> 00:40:22.599
the hardest things to give up when
I moved to North Carolina because it actually

431
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:29.800
was pretty profitable. But we had
to deal with sponsors, and most of

432
00:40:29.800 --> 00:40:32.320
the sponsors were in the hunting and
fishing industry, and you know, the

433
00:40:32.719 --> 00:40:38.760
holy grail for them was to get
into Walmart. Obviously, and like Walmart

434
00:40:38.840 --> 00:40:45.440
would dictate what your packaging looked like, and you would do it because you

435
00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:50.400
wanted you wanted to be in the
stores so you can get rid of the

436
00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:54.639
orange. Is the point that I'm
making. But back to this, Okay,

437
00:40:54.760 --> 00:40:59.480
like including like Berkeley for those of
you who fish, obviously you're familiar

438
00:40:59.519 --> 00:41:04.920
with the name Berkeley Light. The
way stuff was packaged by Berkeley that you

439
00:41:04.960 --> 00:41:08.119
could buy in Walmart was dictated by
Walmart. And I can't remember the reasoning

440
00:41:08.159 --> 00:41:13.440
behind it, but that's the power
that they have and understandably, so obviously,

441
00:41:13.480 --> 00:41:15.199
if you're selling stuff, that's a
good place to sell stuff, so

442
00:41:15.679 --> 00:41:19.440
you can get rid of the orange. I don't want to hear your lazy

443
00:41:19.480 --> 00:41:29.400
emails any who. Back to this, So, Nash County Sheriff keyth Stone

444
00:41:29.519 --> 00:41:36.760
tells WRL News again, don't talk
to WRL, that fifty thousand palettes of

445
00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:45.639
medicine were destroyed. The facility produces
nearly twenty five percent of Fiser's sterile injectables.

446
00:41:45.719 --> 00:41:53.239
So and then obviously Fiser is the
I believe they're the largest US seller

447
00:41:53.480 --> 00:42:00.000
of some of these products. So
when you lose a fourth of the current

448
00:42:00.159 --> 00:42:06.360
supply, especially here on the East
Coast, as you can imagine, that's

449
00:42:06.400 --> 00:42:12.519
going to be impactful, even though
they it's not clear totally what the impact

450
00:42:12.599 --> 00:42:15.480
is going to be from a distribution
standpoint. I don't know the totality of

451
00:42:15.519 --> 00:42:25.639
Fiser's warehouses, but pretty crazy.
More than one hundred vehicles and storage trucks

452
00:42:25.639 --> 00:42:30.400
were damaged as well, and the
facility, as you can imagine, is

453
00:42:30.440 --> 00:42:35.760
closed till further notice. Totally figure
out what they're gonna do. But yeah,

454
00:42:35.800 --> 00:42:42.840
I mean thirty two hundred people.
Even though technically Rocky Mount is a

455
00:42:43.039 --> 00:42:50.000
separate radio market, which I always
thought was dumb, Rocky Mount Greenville is

456
00:42:50.039 --> 00:42:53.199
its own radio market, and you
know, technically it's not one we're in,

457
00:42:53.320 --> 00:42:58.639
although we show up in the ratings
there, so you know, in

458
00:42:58.679 --> 00:43:01.760
case you're wondering, um, so
we got a lot of folks to listen

459
00:43:01.800 --> 00:43:08.920
down there. I had no idea
the facility was that big. Let's see,

460
00:43:09.280 --> 00:43:17.159
um stay rep Alan Chesser, so
he represents nash County. You know

461
00:43:17.199 --> 00:43:22.079
what, I should have had him
on now that I realized the totality of

462
00:43:22.079 --> 00:43:30.239
this. If anyone's listening and oh
really no, no, no, say

463
00:43:30.280 --> 00:43:31.880
it on the air. So you
guys, so you follow each other on

464
00:43:31.880 --> 00:43:35.920
Twitter, I was gonna say,
I recognize the name there. Yeah,

465
00:43:35.920 --> 00:43:37.880
so I'll contact him and see if
he's available. Yeah, I'd like to

466
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:42.320
talk to him because I had Again, I had no idea that we're talking

467
00:43:42.360 --> 00:43:46.800
over three thousand people that worked there
until I read it literally right before the

468
00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:50.719
show this morning. So yeah,
reach out to reach out to him,

469
00:43:50.719 --> 00:43:53.840
see if you can get him to
call in. It's because he visited the

470
00:43:53.880 --> 00:43:58.840
plan on Thursday. Chester said it's
going to take some time to clean up.

471
00:43:58.920 --> 00:44:04.079
There's obviously economic impact obviously. Quote
it looks like a bomb went off,

472
00:44:04.239 --> 00:44:07.639
and Chester mentioned how authorities need to
make sure everything's account of it.

473
00:44:07.760 --> 00:44:09.639
Yeah, obviously. Again, this
is why I didn't deep dive into this

474
00:44:09.719 --> 00:44:16.440
yesterday because the thought was in my
brain, like tornado comes through and then

475
00:44:17.440 --> 00:44:24.840
there was a story where literally two
people were transported one hundred feet. Those

476
00:44:24.880 --> 00:44:30.239
are people, So think about an
individual versus you know, a box of

477
00:44:30.360 --> 00:44:37.039
a controlled whatever. And I didn't
want to get into it yesterday because you

478
00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:42.440
know, that's the kind of crap
that people would show up tom to look

479
00:44:42.480 --> 00:44:47.519
for stuff. But now we're we're
little ways away. So the plant produces

480
00:44:47.559 --> 00:44:53.840
injectables, IV, infusions, wide
variety of stuff. But there's also,

481
00:44:54.159 --> 00:45:04.719
as Chester points out here, there
are controlled substances. Let's see here.

482
00:45:04.760 --> 00:45:08.760
Fiser bought the plan back in twenty
fifteen. It encompasses more than one point

483
00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:15.760
for a million square feet of manufacturing
space, so twenty four football fields.

484
00:45:16.039 --> 00:45:20.519
I guess they have twenty two packaging
lines. So I don't know if that's

485
00:45:20.559 --> 00:45:27.199
the totality of what they produced,
but yeah, I just wanted to follow

486
00:45:27.280 --> 00:45:36.119
up on that because you know,
that sounds that sounds like obviously something that

487
00:45:36.159 --> 00:45:40.000
could have an impact if you're going
to the hospital this weekend or whatever.

488
00:45:40.079 --> 00:45:43.519
It is, all right now,
so here we go. Yeah, so

489
00:45:43.599 --> 00:45:51.159
this is again I'm I'm basing a
lot of this off of off of emails.

490
00:45:51.199 --> 00:45:54.480
So I used to work emailer rights. I used to work at an

491
00:45:54.519 --> 00:46:02.119
AVID distribution center. Opioids are stored
in a vault. Um, there may

492
00:46:02.159 --> 00:46:07.239
have been some desirable drug. Again, I don't know. I didn't dive

493
00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:10.800
into this yesterday because I don't want
to be the the you know, the

494
00:46:10.880 --> 00:46:16.760
jackass on the radio that may inspire
somebody. That means said, I don't

495
00:46:16.760 --> 00:46:23.119
know, man, I'm looking at
those pictures. Even if it's in a

496
00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:29.440
vault, I don't even know.
Oh sweet, Okay, all right,

497
00:46:29.639 --> 00:46:34.360
so I guess we're gonna chat with
the representative here. Well that's good,

498
00:46:35.599 --> 00:46:38.039
that's good, all right, So
let me do this. We'll take a

499
00:46:38.119 --> 00:46:44.480
break, come back and um,
maybe get a little more on what exactly

500
00:46:44.519 --> 00:46:49.199
this impact may look like and the
timeline. I mean, this day.

501
00:46:49.239 --> 00:46:52.760
This thing ain't getting fixed tomorrow.
So we'll get into that coming up here

502
00:46:52.800 --> 00:46:58.760
on the case O Day radio program
show. After the show on the radio

503
00:46:58.840 --> 00:47:02.119
app, search case O Day for
the podcast on the iHeart radio app.

504
00:47:05.039 --> 00:47:09.400
All right, seven twenty three,
let me jump into this representative Alan Chesser,

505
00:47:09.440 --> 00:47:16.480
who represents those you listening in a
good portion of the Rocky Mount area.

506
00:47:16.840 --> 00:47:20.960
Um, we're talking about the Fiser
plant down there. He's joining us

507
00:47:21.039 --> 00:47:23.400
this morning. How are you doing, sir? I'm doing all right,

508
00:47:23.440 --> 00:47:27.320
Tacy, how are you? Uh, well, I'm good. I had

509
00:47:27.400 --> 00:47:31.760
no idea until I started really diving
into this. Over three thousand people work

510
00:47:31.800 --> 00:47:37.280
at that Fiser plant. The photos
are obviously crazy yesterday. UM, you

511
00:47:37.320 --> 00:47:42.960
know, people are trying to ascertain
what happened. Uh. It doesn't look

512
00:47:43.000 --> 00:47:46.599
like anything is going to be back
in business anytime soon. So you went

513
00:47:46.679 --> 00:47:51.239
down there, you and Tim Moore, I guess what was the what was

514
00:47:51.320 --> 00:47:55.480
your your your thoughts when you were
down there. Oh? Yeah, I

515
00:47:55.480 --> 00:48:01.559
mean it's heavily impacted. It's heavily
damaged. Um. Some people they upgraded

516
00:48:01.599 --> 00:48:06.559
the tornado to an F three,
So originally we were told it was enough

517
00:48:06.599 --> 00:48:08.679
to set a little bit over one
hundred and fifty mile hour straight line wins

518
00:48:09.480 --> 00:48:12.920
um. The only thing I can
equate it too, is the back end

519
00:48:12.920 --> 00:48:16.280
of that building was like a bomb
went off. And given the nature of

520
00:48:16.559 --> 00:48:21.360
you know what what Fiser produces,
you're you're completely right. They're one of

521
00:48:21.400 --> 00:48:27.440
our largest employers in the county UM
and an integral part of our community here.

522
00:48:28.039 --> 00:48:31.519
So given the nature of what they
produce, there's controlled substances in that

523
00:48:31.559 --> 00:48:37.840
building. So accounting for all those
substances, accounting for every file that's been

524
00:48:37.639 --> 00:48:43.960
lost in the storm is of paramount
concern and it's going to take time to

525
00:48:44.000 --> 00:48:46.920
clean it up. What at the
state level, what is it you guys

526
00:48:47.159 --> 00:48:52.719
want to do? I'm assuming your
brain is churning. UM. Obviously this

527
00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:57.679
is you know, um, a
natural disaster, if you will. But

528
00:48:58.039 --> 00:49:00.880
what is the State of North Carolina
do and what is their representative in you

529
00:49:01.880 --> 00:49:07.400
hoping to do? Well? That
was the goal of yesterday was just getting

530
00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:12.159
um, I hate to use this
term, with the power brokers that be

531
00:49:12.400 --> 00:49:15.079
at the state level, representations from
the executive branch in the state, UM,

532
00:49:15.320 --> 00:49:20.559
the legislature out there to see the
damage for themselves. Because ultimately what

533
00:49:20.599 --> 00:49:24.360
we have to do is try to
streamline this siling process to either get FEMA

534
00:49:24.400 --> 00:49:30.719
funds in there or get some state
emergency relief in there, which is you

535
00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:34.920
know, a benefactor of hopefully Nash
count who will be a benefactor of some

536
00:49:35.000 --> 00:49:37.920
of the good fiscal policy that the
states followed over the years. And the

537
00:49:37.960 --> 00:49:40.280
surplus is putting money away for the
rainy day fund and the emergency funds for

538
00:49:40.280 --> 00:49:44.480
a time such as this, right, and let's let's just be clear.

539
00:49:44.639 --> 00:49:49.800
FEMA and the FEMA funds is essentially
an insurance program that the states pay into.

540
00:49:50.679 --> 00:49:52.639
So yeah, but there there are
certain levels that you have to hit

541
00:49:52.679 --> 00:49:57.559
to qualify that, right. I've
taught. I haven't talked to the governor

542
00:49:57.639 --> 00:50:00.679
himself, but I taught the representative
from his office, um, somewhere on

543
00:50:00.679 --> 00:50:07.360
site yesterday. Both. I believe
the governor is suffering with about of COVID

544
00:50:07.480 --> 00:50:10.440
right now. So well, yeah, I mean he's tweeting, so you

545
00:50:10.519 --> 00:50:14.599
know, he's awake and alert,
and this is you know, this is

546
00:50:14.639 --> 00:50:17.599
going back to where he's from.
Um. You know, this seems like

547
00:50:17.599 --> 00:50:21.679
one of those things where you guys
could all get along, you know what

548
00:50:21.719 --> 00:50:24.880
I'm saying. So, and there's
not many examples of that. Yeah,

549
00:50:25.679 --> 00:50:29.000
I think I think we are.
I think we're coming together. We had

550
00:50:30.039 --> 00:50:36.400
Secretary Buffalo out here yesterday. UM
and uh, you know the local city

551
00:50:36.400 --> 00:50:39.320
councilman that's from the particular ward that
was most heavily damaged, Ward seven.

552
00:50:39.559 --> 00:50:45.000
He's a registered Democrat as well.
But none of that comes up when we're

553
00:50:45.039 --> 00:50:49.039
driving around and checking on our constituents, checking our people and trying to help

554
00:50:49.039 --> 00:50:52.559
people. UM. It is a
very bi bipartisan effort going on right now.

555
00:50:52.880 --> 00:50:54.159
Yeah, No, I mean this
is this is when you all need

556
00:50:54.199 --> 00:50:58.360
to divorce that and you know,
just get down to doing it. So.

557
00:50:59.039 --> 00:51:01.960
Um, so I saw estimates two
to three years. I got about

558
00:51:02.000 --> 00:51:06.119
thirty seconds left, so I hate
to pinch you here, but two to

559
00:51:06.199 --> 00:51:09.960
three years over three thousand people working
there? Is that your understanding of how

560
00:51:09.960 --> 00:51:15.199
long it might take to get this
back up? I have not heard any

561
00:51:15.320 --> 00:51:19.760
estimates. We're going back out there
today to meet with the CEO of FISER

562
00:51:19.800 --> 00:51:22.840
and we're expected to get some updated
information today. All right, let me

563
00:51:22.880 --> 00:51:25.840
do this, Um gotta, I
gotta go to break. Let's let's make

564
00:51:25.840 --> 00:51:29.639
a plan to talk on Monday.
Maybe you'll have more info. But I

565
00:51:29.719 --> 00:51:36.840
appreciate you reaching out to us today. Ross set up, Thank you,

566
00:51:37.400 --> 00:51:42.440
JCS on ninety four five WPTI in
the Triad and one oh six one FM

567
00:51:42.519 --> 00:51:47.320
talk in the Triangle. All right, so we got stuff organized. Ross.

568
00:51:47.360 --> 00:51:52.480
What time we do in that Monday
with the eight oh five all right?

569
00:51:52.360 --> 00:51:59.239
So that'll give the representative more time
to ascertain a little more. But

570
00:51:59.760 --> 00:52:09.239
yeah, when you talk about Rocky
Mount and over three thousand jobs, which

571
00:52:09.800 --> 00:52:14.960
again I'm seeing estimates. Now take
it for what it's worth. These r

572
00:52:15.079 --> 00:52:21.199
estimates from people who are commenting in
news stories, um as to you know,

573
00:52:21.360 --> 00:52:23.719
how long it may take to get
that facility up. Somebody send me

574
00:52:23.719 --> 00:52:28.519
an email and they're probably right,
probably just gonna have to raise the whole

575
00:52:28.519 --> 00:52:37.199
thing and rebuild. So but that's
just me speculating. So we'll on Monday

576
00:52:37.960 --> 00:52:39.719
dive into that, and uh,
what what is Rocky Mount? Like?

577
00:52:39.800 --> 00:52:45.400
Fifty thousand people? Actually, hold
on, make sure I'm accurate here,

578
00:52:46.119 --> 00:52:49.920
do you do? You do?
You? Do? You do? Do

579
00:52:49.920 --> 00:52:55.320
you? Fifty four thousand according to
the UH numbers from twenty twenty one,

580
00:52:55.440 --> 00:53:00.719
So obviously that is a it's a
big slice of the population around the Rocky

581
00:53:00.719 --> 00:53:06.440
Mountain area. That's the city of
Rocky Mount. Obviously, I'm sure people

582
00:53:06.480 --> 00:53:09.000
come in from nearby communities, but
you get the gist of it. So

583
00:53:10.039 --> 00:53:15.639
we'll talk to Rep. Chester on
Monday and uh see what's going on over

584
00:53:15.679 --> 00:53:20.360
there. Let me grab a quick
phone call on this, Uh Scott,

585
00:53:20.440 --> 00:53:24.039
what's up, hey, Casey?
How you doing this morning? I'm pretty

586
00:53:24.039 --> 00:53:27.400
you know, it's Friday, sirs, so it's hard to hate, but

587
00:53:27.639 --> 00:53:31.960
great, Well, I haven't heard
anybody say anything about how this is going

588
00:53:32.039 --> 00:53:42.760
to affect the wildlife in in in
what sense all the medication that's spread out

589
00:53:42.840 --> 00:53:45.679
all over the area there. You
know, somebody send me an email about

590
00:53:45.719 --> 00:53:52.159
how we could get a Shark Nado
spin off or a cocaine bear. But

591
00:53:52.280 --> 00:54:00.519
with the giant hogs, which um
obvious obviously they got in a bus down

592
00:54:00.559 --> 00:54:04.079
there. Um. I'm still to
this day, I still think about hog

593
00:54:04.159 --> 00:54:07.360
Zilla, which I think it was
like Southerly Joco. But yeah, man,

594
00:54:07.960 --> 00:54:12.119
uh yeah, I don't want him
get ahold of any any drugs.

595
00:54:12.159 --> 00:54:19.320
So I'm with you. But you
know, also, okay, all right,

596
00:54:19.440 --> 00:54:22.280
look look at you, an animal
lover, sir. You're concerned about

597
00:54:22.400 --> 00:54:29.519
them, the critters. I understand
that. But yeah, I mean here

598
00:54:29.519 --> 00:54:35.920
in North Carolina, we got us
some giant ferrel hogs, man, and

599
00:54:36.159 --> 00:54:39.880
uh yeah, I don't want him
getting some you know, I don't want

600
00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:47.079
him getting a hold of any pharmaceuticals
for that matter. Holy cow, dude,

601
00:54:47.119 --> 00:54:51.719
I gotta tell you. Uh and
obviously some of you, obviously,

602
00:54:52.199 --> 00:54:55.400
uh, you probably hunt farrel hogs
a lot more than I do. I

603
00:54:55.480 --> 00:55:02.480
think twice, I literally twice.
Hovelina in Texas, which is from a

604
00:55:02.519 --> 00:55:08.559
size standpoint is nowhere compared to what
we have in North Carolina. But I

605
00:55:08.599 --> 00:55:15.360
did go on a hog hunt here
in North Carolina and that thing was aggressive.

606
00:55:15.280 --> 00:55:23.719
The dude missed the double lung boiler
shot and we got down there and

607
00:55:24.119 --> 00:55:29.679
yeah, like you don't recognize the
size of some of these things. So

608
00:55:29.840 --> 00:55:31.880
yeah, I don't want to gonna
get in a hold of pharmaceuticals. I'm

609
00:55:31.920 --> 00:55:36.880
with you, sir, but you
know, make a movie out of it.

610
00:55:36.960 --> 00:55:43.840
So you got that. Speaking of
meat, I'm not at all surprised

611
00:55:43.840 --> 00:55:52.119
by this a new study and that
it was part of the FDA's June twenty

612
00:55:52.199 --> 00:55:58.760
first follow up. So back in
June, the FDA approved the sale of

613
00:55:58.920 --> 00:56:02.119
lab grown meat. But as they
were doing it, the company is called

614
00:56:02.159 --> 00:56:07.360
good Meat. I believe that made
application. As they were doing it,

615
00:56:07.559 --> 00:56:12.320
they also announced that there was some
research being done, right, and they

616
00:56:12.320 --> 00:56:15.079
would take that into account as they
were because this is, you know,

617
00:56:15.159 --> 00:56:21.920
this is new ground, and I
have no desire to eat lab grown meat,

618
00:56:22.599 --> 00:56:25.559
just so we're abundantly clear, but
if you want to, you can

619
00:56:25.679 --> 00:56:32.800
now. However, as part of
that, they were wanting more research as

620
00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:38.639
they figure out the regulations that are
going to surround this and I find this

621
00:56:38.840 --> 00:56:52.280
very interesting. So apparently apparently lab
grown artificial meat actually has a larger carbon

622
00:56:52.480 --> 00:57:00.880
footprint currently then regular old you know, animals just in the tree additional sense.

623
00:57:02.280 --> 00:57:07.239
So only chicken has passed the official
government approval process, so that's what

624
00:57:07.280 --> 00:57:13.679
they're looking at. However, researchers
at the University of California Davis found that

625
00:57:13.719 --> 00:57:16.800
the environmental impacts of lab grown or
what is actually referred to. They don't

626
00:57:16.840 --> 00:57:22.880
call it lab grown, they call
it cultivated meat, is likely to be

627
00:57:23.239 --> 00:57:32.280
orders of magnitude their language higher than
their natural counterpart, based on production methods,

628
00:57:35.320 --> 00:57:39.480
which remember the lab grown meat was
all about this narrative. Than when

629
00:57:39.480 --> 00:57:45.960
it comes to you know, our
current agricultural environment and the meat that we

630
00:57:46.079 --> 00:57:51.840
produce, it's horrible, which is
why you see these stupid like Green New

631
00:57:51.960 --> 00:57:55.840
Deal inclusions where they want to get
rid of cows and build a train to

632
00:57:55.960 --> 00:58:02.039
Hawaii and you know, all the
stupid AOC crab But in reality, it

633
00:58:02.320 --> 00:58:09.920
is actually more energy intensive. Now
supporters say that's just a result of it

634
00:58:10.000 --> 00:58:15.639
being new and the research that's gone
with it, but once it becomes more

635
00:58:15.760 --> 00:58:21.920
mainstream, that number will drop and
they're probably not inaccurate on that. You

636
00:58:21.960 --> 00:58:27.360
know, anytime you get more into
a mass production kind of thing, it

637
00:58:27.400 --> 00:58:31.960
becomes easier and easier. That being
said, I saw several articles when this

638
00:58:32.000 --> 00:58:38.760
went through where people were of the
opinion that if you're all about the environment,

639
00:58:39.000 --> 00:58:43.880
you're a climate crusader. This is
the direction to go. And the

640
00:58:43.960 --> 00:58:47.079
reality is it's not just a little
more. It's like four and a half

641
00:58:47.159 --> 00:59:00.239
times more. According to UC Davis
researcher Derek Risner these studies lead author is

642
00:59:00.559 --> 00:59:07.000
so UC Davis actually has a cultivated
meat consortium, which couldn't sound more like

643
00:59:07.119 --> 00:59:19.400
a funnel for public dollars for various
connected education people. The artificial meat industry

644
00:59:19.400 --> 00:59:24.800
plans on creating lab grown meat using
primarily food grade ingredients and cultures, which

645
00:59:24.880 --> 00:59:30.280
is part of the purity process that
they're claiming that in and of itself obviously

646
00:59:31.199 --> 00:59:37.719
has a much larger carbon footprint,
described as pharma to food, which I

647
00:59:37.719 --> 00:59:40.559
think is a horrible description if you
want to get people to try it.

648
00:59:42.960 --> 00:59:51.639
The lab based meat had been promoted
as a more climate friendly alternative. However,

649
00:59:51.679 --> 01:00:00.119
it just doesn't live up to it. Let's see here once now again,

650
01:00:00.199 --> 01:00:05.119
this is this is if everybody gets
on board. Ross. Do you

651
01:00:05.159 --> 01:00:08.599
have any interest in eating lab grown
meat? Ever? Uh? No,

652
01:00:08.679 --> 01:00:10.840
I tried it the one time,
and they sat in my stomach forever.

653
01:00:12.480 --> 01:00:15.840
Well, that's not lab grown.
That was you're talking about the uh anything

654
01:00:15.880 --> 01:00:17.760
to do with it? I don't
anything to do with it. That was

655
01:00:17.800 --> 01:00:22.840
the impossible bird. So this is
actually protein, this is actually meat,

656
01:00:22.880 --> 01:00:25.880
but it's lab cultivated. So this
is actually something different. But you're right,

657
01:00:27.320 --> 01:00:30.960
that was the impossible whopper, right, you ate the impossible whopper there.

658
01:00:30.000 --> 01:00:32.519
My stomach was like, what is
this? And they sat there forever.

659
01:00:34.960 --> 01:00:38.360
Yeah. Now, to be fair, I probably have a bias literally

660
01:00:38.440 --> 01:00:43.719
growing up in the meat production industry, right with cows and stuff, But

661
01:00:45.039 --> 01:00:50.519
I got zero interest. However,
if the totality of the US population were

662
01:00:50.599 --> 01:00:59.159
to get on board the artificial lab
grown cultivated meat train, they estimate eventually

663
01:00:59.320 --> 01:01:05.719
it would have ninety two fewer carbon
emissions, which I don't believe because anytime

664
01:01:05.760 --> 01:01:10.199
I see these estimates that I never
actually live up to it. But right

665
01:01:10.199 --> 01:01:15.599
now it's uh, it's not even
close, and in a very negative way.

666
01:01:15.679 --> 01:01:19.559
All right, seven forty five k
c O day radio program Race A

667
01:01:19.679 --> 01:01:22.800
check from the Weather Channel, YO
yo yo, Hey, do you hear

668
01:01:22.840 --> 01:01:29.320
yourself? I do No, no, not yet. No echo, It's

669
01:01:29.360 --> 01:01:35.320
fixed. Okay, Yeah, Ross
was Yeah, I dude, the dude

670
01:01:35.360 --> 01:01:37.719
was putting in some time after the
show. It's just crazy. Yeah.

671
01:01:37.719 --> 01:01:40.400
It was like this big, long
like expo. I was like, all

672
01:01:40.400 --> 01:01:45.199
I needed to know Ross was it
was fixed. I did. Now.

673
01:01:45.280 --> 01:01:47.599
I feel bad though, because people
are like, your board is messed up.

674
01:01:47.679 --> 01:01:51.920
I'm like, how dare you,
sir? Yeah, how dare you

675
01:01:52.000 --> 01:01:55.719
mess with salt? Salt Ross's board? With the last thing I want to

676
01:01:55.719 --> 01:01:59.519
do. He's got a toy.
He's got it. Literally, it's decorated

677
01:01:59.559 --> 01:02:04.480
with toy. But oh yeah,
with the skeletor. Yeah, I got

678
01:02:04.079 --> 01:02:07.880
an I got an R two D
two Here, Darth Vader here in front

679
01:02:07.880 --> 01:02:10.360
of me. Dude. Have you
never seen a picture of us as studios?

680
01:02:10.400 --> 01:02:14.159
No? I may have, but
I don't remember. Dude. It

681
01:02:14.199 --> 01:02:19.599
looks like it looks like you ever
see like the nerd Collectible room or they

682
01:02:19.639 --> 01:02:22.559
have all this stuff. Yeah,
he's got a little bit of everything.

683
01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:27.199
Man. Oh wow. Oh yeah, okay, I'm glad we got it

684
01:02:27.239 --> 01:02:30.639
taking care of We were just we
were just chatting with um uh. The

685
01:02:31.239 --> 01:02:37.039
state representative from Nash County, where
the Fiser plan is right, and um,

686
01:02:37.679 --> 01:02:40.519
you know over three thousand people worked
there. I didn't get into it

687
01:02:40.639 --> 01:02:45.360
yesterday. I'm talking about it today
because the thought occurred. Obviously, they

688
01:02:45.400 --> 01:02:50.719
have controlled substances which you never knew
where the tornado may have tossed him.

689
01:02:50.760 --> 01:02:53.599
And I didn't want to be the
guy that encouraged like opioid addicts to go

690
01:02:53.760 --> 01:03:00.400
farm the woods nearby. But um, right, well we were a day

691
01:03:00.440 --> 01:03:05.079
in now, so they got security. But my point is, um,

692
01:03:07.000 --> 01:03:10.679
when you see the aerial footage of
this and you see did you see the

693
01:03:10.800 --> 01:03:15.440
video of the guy who's filming outside
of his double wide and the roof's getting

694
01:03:15.519 --> 01:03:17.440
ripped off? I mean I didn't
see that. I did see the aerial

695
01:03:17.440 --> 01:03:22.199
footage of the of the building.
I've been near a tornado. I couldn't

696
01:03:22.199 --> 01:03:25.079
actually see it. I could see
the I could see it start to circulate

697
01:03:25.679 --> 01:03:30.039
and then it moved. It was
several minutes later that it turned just terrifying.

698
01:03:30.119 --> 01:03:35.599
Man, just shows you we're so
we're such peons in the grand scheme

699
01:03:35.639 --> 01:03:37.880
again, the grand scheme of things. You're right, And you know the

700
01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:40.119
one thing I always like to say, and probably well, I don't.

701
01:03:40.480 --> 01:03:45.440
I'd like to say it more is
understand a few things. Showers, thunderstorms

702
01:03:45.039 --> 01:03:51.920
when they're in the forecast. Understand
this. All thunderstorms do rotate to some

703
01:03:52.280 --> 01:03:58.800
degree. So it's just sometimes the
dynamics are just the right place the wrong

704
01:03:58.840 --> 01:04:03.800
time, are just perfect for you
know, something to rotate and a thunderstorm

705
01:04:03.800 --> 01:04:09.880
to rotate a little better for the
worst and produce tornadoes. So you know,

706
01:04:09.960 --> 01:04:14.320
that messaging is it should always be
there. And there's thunderstorms and you

707
01:04:14.400 --> 01:04:16.239
may not even mentioned severe. You
know, we weren't in a watch or

708
01:04:16.280 --> 01:04:20.400
anything, but there were stronger storms
that come on in my messages. Anytime

709
01:04:20.440 --> 01:04:25.079
there's thunderstorms, you should get inside
anyway and then check out what's going on

710
01:04:25.559 --> 01:04:28.000
and see, you know, what
you need to do to keep your you

711
01:04:28.000 --> 01:04:30.320
know, try to keep your property
safe, but certainly your family. That's

712
01:04:30.559 --> 01:04:33.360
one of the biggest things. But
none of that is we go through the

713
01:04:33.400 --> 01:04:36.400
next few days. Sunny today.
Got a front coming in this afternoon.

714
01:04:36.800 --> 01:04:40.519
I'm limited moisture with it. I
think out near the outer banks of the

715
01:04:40.559 --> 01:04:44.920
beaches there may be some showers,
thundershowers upper eighties to low nineties tonight in

716
01:04:44.920 --> 01:04:47.760
the sixties tomorrow, maybe a shower
around otherwise part at least sunny. You'll

717
01:04:47.760 --> 01:04:50.599
feel a little difference in the air
mass, a little less humid, upper

718
01:04:50.639 --> 01:04:56.079
eighties and a chance of a shower
thundershower on Sunday afternoon. Mit upper eighties

719
01:04:56.079 --> 01:04:58.280
once again, but we're going back
to the nineties next week. Next week

720
01:04:58.320 --> 01:05:03.119
looks like again another high and potentially
dry week. So hot and dry with

721
01:05:03.239 --> 01:05:09.280
sunshine starting about Tuesday at least through
Thursday. All right, thank you sir,

722
01:05:09.519 --> 01:05:12.920
and we'll chat in an hour.
Appreciate all right, Coming up,

723
01:05:13.280 --> 01:05:17.480
we'll chat with Pete Calendar much sooner. That'll be an eight OZHO five And

724
01:05:18.079 --> 01:05:25.480
researchers say there's a bit of a
problem off the coast of Florida, and

725
01:05:25.960 --> 01:05:30.920
um, this sounds horrible. I'll
give you the details coming up on the

726
01:05:30.000 --> 01:05:34.960
case O Day Radio program. This
is one oh six one FM Talk in

727
01:05:35.000 --> 01:05:44.119
the Triangle and News Talk PTI in
the Triad. So for those of you

728
01:05:44.719 --> 01:05:51.519
who are plans of that open place
every day, fans of Shark Week,

729
01:05:53.519 --> 01:05:59.840
there is going to be a rather
interesting special as part of the programming offering.

730
01:06:00.880 --> 01:06:04.320
And it did. It didn't set
out to be that, So check

731
01:06:04.400 --> 01:06:12.800
this out here we go. What
is this guy's name? Anyway, he

732
01:06:12.880 --> 01:06:18.519
does. Tom Hurd, who is
a marine biologist actually has a pretty popular

733
01:06:18.559 --> 01:06:28.320
YouTube channel, was shooting a documentary
off the coast of Florida and with the

734
01:06:28.400 --> 01:06:34.119
intention that it would be part of
Discovery Shark Week. However, it turned

735
01:06:34.119 --> 01:06:42.480
into something he didn't expect. So
one of the things that down in Florida

736
01:06:42.840 --> 01:06:47.239
can be an issue is drugs literally
floating in the water or washing up on

737
01:06:47.280 --> 01:06:55.000
the beach. We see stories on
the regular about this, and it just

738
01:06:55.000 --> 01:06:57.679
so happened. They were shore where
were they should, down in the Keys,

739
01:06:57.800 --> 01:07:00.400
I think, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah. Along with a University

740
01:07:00.400 --> 01:07:05.840
of Florida environmental scientists, they were
down the Florida Keys and they were just

741
01:07:05.880 --> 01:07:14.639
they were shooting videos of hammerhead sharks
and sandbar sharks. However, they then

742
01:07:14.760 --> 01:07:20.280
noticed that there was packaging floating in
the water and they contacted authorities once they

743
01:07:20.320 --> 01:07:28.559
realized what was right. Obviously it
was cocaine. However, in that time

744
01:07:29.280 --> 01:07:35.400
they noticed something interesting. Literally,
shark after shark after shark coming up to

745
01:07:36.119 --> 01:07:47.840
the cocaine and eating it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The sharks were

746
01:07:47.880 --> 01:07:51.679
all about the cocaine, and in
fact, they got so much footage of

747
01:07:51.760 --> 01:07:56.119
these sharks, and then and then
they documented how the sharks were acting and

748
01:07:56.119 --> 01:07:59.320
you're not going to believe this.
Apparently they acted like they were on cocaine,

749
01:07:59.400 --> 01:08:02.119
so case you needs something to worry
about. In fact, it was

750
01:08:02.199 --> 01:08:06.880
so interesting to them that they changed
what they were doing as part of the

751
01:08:08.239 --> 01:08:15.239
documentary and they conducted an experiment so
they got they essentially recreated the packaging it

752
01:08:15.360 --> 01:08:17.560
didn't actually have cocaine in it,
and then they dropped it into the same

753
01:08:17.640 --> 01:08:21.920
water and sure enough, as it's
out there, all of a sudden,

754
01:08:21.960 --> 01:08:29.479
they observed sharks swimming straight to the
packages and trying to eat it. So

755
01:08:29.560 --> 01:08:33.159
that spawned what is going to be
a one hour documentary called Cocaine Sharks.

756
01:08:34.560 --> 01:08:38.279
Dude. If you need a reason
not to go to the beach, here

757
01:08:38.319 --> 01:08:45.520
it is. But apparently they say
that there is enough, There is enough

758
01:08:45.640 --> 01:08:50.520
regularity of drugs in the water,
which is baffling to me because I only

759
01:08:50.560 --> 01:08:56.000
see these stories sometimes that it literally
has trained the sharks to seek out these

760
01:08:56.000 --> 01:09:00.319
cocaine, which I don't know,
maybe they're just biting whatever is in the

761
01:09:00.359 --> 01:09:05.359
water. But also I don't want
to get in the water if cocaine sharks

762
01:09:05.359 --> 01:09:11.560
are around, so I don't know, maybe that is along with the the

763
01:09:11.720 --> 01:09:16.640
fentnol board. Maybe that's going to
be the latest iteration of weird animals specials.

764
01:09:17.000 --> 01:09:20.319
So Caine Sharks, by the way, premieres on the twenty sixth at

765
01:09:20.399 --> 01:09:59.560
this five days on scubby. If
you want to work, all right,

766
01:09:59.600 --> 01:10:01.760
good morning and everybody. It is
eight oh seven, it is Friday,

767
01:10:02.000 --> 01:10:09.760
and we got an hour to go
and then the sweet sweet smell at least

768
01:10:09.760 --> 01:10:14.039
for us, you all got to
go to work. But uh, of

769
01:10:14.239 --> 01:10:19.039
the weekend is upon us. But
before we get there, we had a

770
01:10:19.439 --> 01:10:25.479
crazy week, all sorts of insanity. To help digest just a little bit

771
01:10:25.520 --> 01:10:29.520
of that, our radio buddy to
the South Peak Calendar Midday's WBT. He's

772
01:10:29.520 --> 01:10:31.960
still got to work today. So
um, but you can catch that on

773
01:10:32.000 --> 01:10:35.760
the iHeart radio app. Sucker,
you got to go to work. What's

774
01:10:35.840 --> 01:10:42.479
up? I never stopped working?
Uh huh do you have? And I'm

775
01:10:42.520 --> 01:10:46.039
serious about this. So for for
Ross and I we're kind of on the

776
01:10:46.079 --> 01:10:51.560
same page. On the weekdays,
there's like this middle window during the day,

777
01:10:51.840 --> 01:10:57.239
right because you know, the show
happens, You've got production, you

778
01:10:57.279 --> 01:11:00.680
know, all this all the stuff
that nobody because everyone one just thinks we

779
01:11:00.720 --> 01:11:02.720
work three hours a day, right, Yeah, and then you have this

780
01:11:02.800 --> 01:11:08.039
middle part of the day and then
once I get into the latter part of

781
01:11:08.039 --> 01:11:14.119
the afternoon, I plug back in
and you know, put together the prep

782
01:11:14.159 --> 01:11:17.159
for the next day. Do you
have like this period of time which is

783
01:11:17.199 --> 01:11:21.239
like a sanity restorer where you just
kind of unplug or are you one of

784
01:11:21.239 --> 01:11:26.960
these guys who's always on. Well, I am a believer, and he

785
01:11:27.079 --> 01:11:30.720
who stops to sharpen the axe cuts
more wood, right, I do believe

786
01:11:30.800 --> 01:11:33.720
that, and I always advise you
got to unplug. I used to do

787
01:11:33.720 --> 01:11:39.600
it on weekends, and to some
extent I do sort of Friday afternoon after

788
01:11:39.640 --> 01:11:44.960
I get done, you know,
from like dinner time until probably Sunday morning,

789
01:11:45.000 --> 01:11:47.399
and then I kind of plug back
in. But just the nature of

790
01:11:47.439 --> 01:11:51.079
this of the shift that I do
noon to three, it's I mean I

791
01:11:51.119 --> 01:11:56.079
get up at five am, I
start you know, compiling the day's headlines,

792
01:11:56.199 --> 01:11:59.079
the show prep, and then you
know, you do the show and

793
01:11:59.119 --> 01:12:02.199
a lot of stuff acts really happens
on air live while I'm live, and

794
01:12:02.239 --> 01:12:08.039
so I'm kind of you know,
yeah, treading what's what's a I said,

795
01:12:08.079 --> 01:12:12.880
I'm so jealous, You're dude.
The ability to jip something, Yeah,

796
01:12:12.880 --> 01:12:16.640
it would be amazing. And you
just unless like Joe Biden's overseas wandering

797
01:12:16.680 --> 01:12:20.159
around, you know, some stage
he's unfamiliar with. I just I don't

798
01:12:20.199 --> 01:12:25.000
have that noon to three, right
he man, right, And so like

799
01:12:25.239 --> 01:12:28.600
over the last two days, I
was able to dip into the or jip

800
01:12:28.680 --> 01:12:31.680
joined in progress. I was able
to join in progress the some of the

801
01:12:31.720 --> 01:12:35.279
hearings that we're up on Capitol Hill, which we're which we're good to do.

802
01:12:35.600 --> 01:12:39.159
Um. You know. The downside
is that you you got a prep

803
01:12:39.239 --> 01:12:43.079
for the entire show, right,
So you're and my rule is two hours

804
01:12:43.079 --> 01:12:46.199
of prep for each hour on air. So a three hour shift means six

805
01:12:46.279 --> 01:12:50.520
hours of prep generally speaking. And
so you prep for Yeah, so you

806
01:12:50.560 --> 01:12:54.159
prep for all that stuff. I
mean, I don't have a guy like

807
01:12:54.319 --> 01:12:58.840
Ross, you know, doing all
of the producer in that Ross does for

808
01:12:58.920 --> 01:13:01.640
you. And so you know,
I just so I wake up, I

809
01:13:01.680 --> 01:13:04.720
start compiling it. I have a
Google document, I put all of my

810
01:13:04.760 --> 01:13:09.399
links into it, and then I
pull from there. I create the show

811
01:13:09.399 --> 01:13:13.880
out of that. And then after
I get done, I use them the

812
01:13:13.920 --> 01:13:17.279
document, I filter out the ones
that I didn't use, and that gets

813
01:13:17.279 --> 01:13:23.560
bumped to the next day. And
so right now my Google document is about

814
01:13:23.560 --> 01:13:27.960
thirty four pages and it's just headlines, it's just links to still. No,

815
01:13:28.039 --> 01:13:31.000
I'm looking at it right now and
it has last week's date on it.

816
01:13:31.079 --> 01:13:34.520
So or the one I send to
you, Yeah, the one I

817
01:13:34.520 --> 01:13:36.520
give to you. I have a
special one here. I can I can,

818
01:13:36.560 --> 01:13:39.960
I see I can change that one
for you. No, no,

819
01:13:39.960 --> 01:13:42.119
no, no, you can hold
on, hold on, hold on that

820
01:13:43.439 --> 01:13:45.479
speak of no. Yeah, look
at that. You just did that on

821
01:13:45.520 --> 01:13:49.399
the fly Hue twenty one. By
the way, I'm sorry, I'm a

822
01:13:49.520 --> 01:13:54.319
ross. What did you just ask
me? I'm just wanting if Pete is

823
01:13:54.399 --> 01:13:59.359
hiring Really we've been together twenty years? Have you heard the promos? Ten

824
01:13:59.479 --> 01:14:02.760
years? And just like it feels
more leaked ten, it feels more than

825
01:14:02.800 --> 01:14:10.079
ten. It's weird. It's probably
accurate, so so weird. Um I

826
01:14:10.239 --> 01:14:14.239
have in control of hiring decisions,
unfortunately. Yeah. No, people think

827
01:14:14.479 --> 01:14:16.039
I can put in a good word
for him. How many times you've got

828
01:14:16.079 --> 01:14:20.039
an email about some other thing on
the station and somebody's like you need to

829
01:14:20.079 --> 01:14:25.119
do something and I'm just like,
you think we control anything outside of our

830
01:14:25.199 --> 01:14:28.760
day part. Yeah, yeah,
it's And then there's the other side of

831
01:14:28.800 --> 01:14:31.840
that, which is that you're being
told what to say by filling the blank,

832
01:14:31.880 --> 01:14:35.920
you know, management powers that be
politicians or something. But yeah,

833
01:14:35.960 --> 01:14:39.760
no, I don't. I don't
ever get any direction. I never have

834
01:14:39.880 --> 01:14:42.439
it when I when I worked for
I Heeart as well, I was never

835
01:14:42.479 --> 01:14:46.119
told anything to say. I build
the show based on what I think people

836
01:14:46.159 --> 01:14:49.840
are interested in, what people need
to know about, and what interests me

837
01:14:50.159 --> 01:14:56.720
so and it just so happens that
those interests usually align well. And that's

838
01:14:57.520 --> 01:15:00.159
that's the key to it. That's
what makes U you know, makes people

839
01:15:00.199 --> 01:15:04.960
on the radio successful. Obviously they
share a lot of characteristics hopefully with the

840
01:15:05.000 --> 01:15:10.960
maximum amount of people out there,
and you know, the ratings come in.

841
01:15:11.279 --> 01:15:14.920
You've never had to fight that battle. There's been a couple of times

842
01:15:14.920 --> 01:15:17.159
over the years where I've had some
like did I ever tell you? Did

843
01:15:17.199 --> 01:15:19.880
I tell you about the Amber alert
conversation? I had one time with a

844
01:15:19.920 --> 01:15:26.399
salesperson, No, so this sales
and he meant, well, right,

845
01:15:26.600 --> 01:15:30.000
he doesn't work with us anymore,
but he meant well, he comes into

846
01:15:30.000 --> 01:15:34.800
the studio, as sometimes salespeople will
do after the show with an idea,

847
01:15:35.079 --> 01:15:40.199
and I appreciate them coming to me
because I don't want them assuming that you

848
01:15:40.239 --> 01:15:44.439
know, something that's outside of the
norm will just fit and then selling it

849
01:15:44.479 --> 01:15:46.279
because then it's a fad thing.
But he comes in and he goes,

850
01:15:46.439 --> 01:15:50.079
oh, I've got this company,
and I'm not gonna say which company it

851
01:15:50.279 --> 01:15:57.159
is, but basically it's a company
where their products help parents keep tabs on

852
01:15:57.199 --> 01:16:00.520
their kids. Okay, all right, great and good company by the way,

853
01:16:00.520 --> 01:16:03.159
good products they produce. But he
comes in, he goes, yeah,

854
01:16:03.199 --> 01:16:10.800
so what if we have a sponsor
for amber alerts? Right? And

855
01:16:10.800 --> 01:16:13.520
and I'm like, I'm looking at
him, I'm like, what do you

856
01:16:13.680 --> 01:16:17.159
mean by that? And what he
meant? So amber alerts, for those

857
01:16:17.199 --> 01:16:21.520
of you who don't know, are
part of the EAS system, which we

858
01:16:21.760 --> 01:16:26.680
do not control. You'll hear the
test. But also like when the storms

859
01:16:26.680 --> 01:16:31.039
were going through the other day,
and and and for amber alerts, they

860
01:16:31.119 --> 01:16:36.319
literally just play I'll get Ross can
because it happens in Ross's studio, and

861
01:16:36.399 --> 01:16:40.119
so he'll be like, EAS is
going off and I just have to keep

862
01:16:40.159 --> 01:16:44.920
talking even though uh, you know, some depending on which market. It's

863
01:16:44.960 --> 01:16:47.520
in half my audience can hear me. Um, And he goes, so

864
01:16:47.560 --> 01:16:50.520
I'm like, let me let me
run this by you. So you want

865
01:16:50.720 --> 01:16:57.239
you want some lead in right where
it's like coming up a kid's missing,

866
01:16:57.359 --> 01:17:01.760
but first and then conserment. And
like when I when I like played it

867
01:17:01.800 --> 01:17:04.159
out on the air forms, he
just kind of looked at me. He's

868
01:17:04.159 --> 01:17:06.359
like, yeah, that's probably not
gonna work, and then he was right,

869
01:17:08.079 --> 01:17:11.840
well, and the other thing is
the lack of consistency. I mean,

870
01:17:12.039 --> 01:17:15.760
you're it's almost like you're gonna have
to go out and start kidnapping kids

871
01:17:15.880 --> 01:17:20.079
in order to make sure that the
client gets enough play to warrant the thought.

872
01:17:24.039 --> 01:17:26.800
I don't know the amount of kids
I was. I went to Walmart

873
01:17:26.880 --> 01:17:30.119
did like the big shopping the other
day, and I'm just like the amount

874
01:17:30.159 --> 01:17:34.960
of untethered children just running around like
it wouldn't be hard, all right,

875
01:17:35.039 --> 01:17:38.840
Well yeah, okay, yeah.
I mean I think though, in order

876
01:17:38.840 --> 01:17:43.159
to get you know, to risk
selling and kidnapping charges, I mean I

877
01:17:43.159 --> 01:17:45.680
would expect to spend to be a
lot of money. The talency I would

878
01:17:45.720 --> 01:17:48.680
suspect would be in the probably millions
of dollars. No, No, I'm

879
01:17:48.680 --> 01:17:51.479
not doing the kidnap. That's on
the company and the sales guy. Oh

880
01:17:51.960 --> 01:17:57.920
oh yeah, so you went to
Walmart. So you're like, you're like

881
01:17:58.039 --> 01:18:02.239
Casey de Santis. Then yeah,
let me ask you a question on that.

882
01:18:02.399 --> 01:18:04.720
Yes, no, to some extent, but actually that I was going

883
01:18:04.760 --> 01:18:08.840
to go in a different direction.
Let me ask you this because you know,

884
01:18:09.119 --> 01:18:12.439
Twitter's, as says Pool, and
you know, anytime I see one

885
01:18:12.479 --> 01:18:16.359
of the bigger Twitter accounts, you
can tell which camp they're in, and

886
01:18:17.159 --> 01:18:21.039
you know, and most of it's
disingenuous, Like I don't even read him

887
01:18:21.079 --> 01:18:27.399
anymore. That being said, you
and I obviously spending an ordinate amount of

888
01:18:27.399 --> 01:18:31.079
time not just on Twitter but reading
stories and whatnot. Do you are you

889
01:18:31.239 --> 01:18:38.199
surprised with the momentum that the Santist
has versus what you thought it would be.

890
01:18:38.520 --> 01:18:41.720
I just want to point this is
not me picking sides. I just

891
01:18:42.880 --> 01:18:48.159
I'm I'm I'm slightly awestruck. And
maybe it's a product of media coverage with

892
01:18:48.560 --> 01:18:53.720
I thought the Santists would be.
Do you remember the governor of Wisconsin during

893
01:18:53.760 --> 01:18:58.880
the twenty sixteen election. You know, I got wrong, Scott, but

894
01:18:59.039 --> 01:19:02.920
he was everywhere right. He was
the show in he was the guy and

895
01:19:03.079 --> 01:19:09.800
about the time to Santis was shipping
kids to Martha's or excuse me, maybe

896
01:19:09.800 --> 01:19:15.600
there were some kids, but shipping
illegal immigrants to Martha's vineyard. Everyone was

897
01:19:15.680 --> 01:19:18.640
just assuming that you couldn't get away
from Scott Walker in the news, and

898
01:19:19.239 --> 01:19:23.640
I just don't feel like that's out
there. And the conspiracy, of course,

899
01:19:23.800 --> 01:19:27.279
is the media secretly wants Trump in
there because Joe Biden will beat him,

900
01:19:27.279 --> 01:19:30.760
blah blah blah, any you know, all that stupidity. But you

901
01:19:30.800 --> 01:19:33.600
know, some people are feeling that
frankly, his people around him are not

902
01:19:33.680 --> 01:19:38.640
doing a good job. What's your
take on that? So, first,

903
01:19:38.720 --> 01:19:44.560
the thing is that it's summer,
and so it's generally you know, slow

904
01:19:44.760 --> 01:19:49.399
news cycles in summertime. You've got
a media that is, uh, you

905
01:19:49.439 --> 01:19:55.520
know, constantly focused on the horse
race, and so they're not I mean,

906
01:19:55.560 --> 01:19:58.760
the best polling is the internal polling
that we never see, right,

907
01:19:58.920 --> 01:20:00.279
Right, So you got all these
polls that come out, and I tend

908
01:20:00.319 --> 01:20:04.000
to look at trend lines and particularly
not even in the matchups. I'm not

909
01:20:04.600 --> 01:20:08.840
I'm not so interested in the matchups
at this point because most Americans are not

910
01:20:08.920 --> 01:20:12.880
tuning in yet, right, they're
not paying attention to all of this stuff.

911
01:20:12.920 --> 01:20:16.760
So the people that follow it,
obviously, are the trends that I

912
01:20:16.800 --> 01:20:23.399
look at are the favorability numbers.
And when you've got president, you've got

913
01:20:23.399 --> 01:20:27.439
President Biden, and you've got former
President Trump, and they have they've got

914
01:20:27.479 --> 01:20:30.680
some serious problems with their favorability numbers. Now does that mean they don't win

915
01:20:30.720 --> 01:20:33.720
the primaries? No, of course
not. You know, Trump has a

916
01:20:33.800 --> 01:20:40.680
solid floor. The question is the
ceiling for him in a general election.

917
01:20:40.960 --> 01:20:43.239
You had a lot of people that
voted against him, and you had a

918
01:20:43.239 --> 01:20:45.439
lot of people that really, really, really really don't like him. And

919
01:20:45.800 --> 01:20:50.600
I do believe that because they tell
you they Democrats, particularly in North Carolina,

920
01:20:50.760 --> 01:20:57.439
their dream ticket for the Republicans is
a Trump Mark Robinson ticket because they

921
01:20:57.479 --> 01:21:00.319
think that that's going to give them
the best chance to win, because they

922
01:21:00.359 --> 01:21:08.199
believe these two candidates would be toxic
to a lot of moderate independent voters.

923
01:21:08.439 --> 01:21:11.199
I don't know if they're right about
that. I mean, they wanted Trump

924
01:21:11.239 --> 01:21:14.079
in twenty sixteen, and how did
that work out for them? You know?

925
01:21:14.159 --> 01:21:16.279
Not so well. So you know, the people are making all sorts

926
01:21:16.279 --> 01:21:20.800
of guesses. I am I am
one who wants to see the campaign unfold.

927
01:21:20.840 --> 01:21:25.159
I'm a patient guy, so I
like the people who get paid.

928
01:21:25.239 --> 01:21:28.279
It really is a phenomenal job.
I guess you just get paid to make

929
01:21:28.319 --> 01:21:31.079
all sorts of predictions about who wins, and then if you're wrong, nobody

930
01:21:31.079 --> 01:21:35.399
ever really you still get work after
that. So I don't understand, like

931
01:21:35.800 --> 01:21:41.760
why people believe these predictions, because
if people could accurately predict all of this

932
01:21:41.800 --> 01:21:44.840
stuff, I would like some lottery
numbers that would win. That would be

933
01:21:44.920 --> 01:21:47.359
very helpful to me. No,
no, no, I'm with you,

934
01:21:47.439 --> 01:21:53.359
and and you're you're you're diving deeper
than I guess. My question is I'm

935
01:21:53.399 --> 01:21:55.960
just my apologies. No no,
no, no, no no that I

936
01:21:55.960 --> 01:21:59.199
feel like I'm being censored. I
feel like I'm being censored. Well,

937
01:21:59.279 --> 01:22:01.520
look you should I had a ten
minute opening statement when you're only supposed to

938
01:22:01.560 --> 01:22:03.680
have five. We're gonna get into
that ur in the moment. No,

939
01:22:03.680 --> 01:22:06.600
no, no, I just mean, like, like, you know,

940
01:22:06.720 --> 01:22:12.640
the things that garner the media coverage, like shipping a bunch of you know,

941
01:22:12.880 --> 01:22:15.279
a flight to Martha's vineyard. Obviously
that was all over the place,

942
01:22:15.720 --> 01:22:19.039
Like the Santist, the stuff he
was doing when he was governor. I

943
01:22:19.119 --> 01:22:24.680
just I don't see that earned media
right now. And I don't know if

944
01:22:24.720 --> 01:22:29.640
that's because the media doesn't want to
cover it or the santist Is people are

945
01:22:29.720 --> 01:22:32.600
just not coming up with, you
know, bright ideas to get it.

946
01:22:33.039 --> 01:22:36.399
I'm a little surprised by that,
but I agree with you, it's very

947
01:22:36.479 --> 01:22:41.079
early. So I was I think
that taking your Ted on this, right,

948
01:22:41.119 --> 01:22:44.359
I think the initial strategy was very
much like a Ted Cruise strategy right

949
01:22:44.399 --> 01:22:48.079
in twenty sixteen. Ted Cruise did
not directly attack Donald Trump because he was

950
01:22:48.119 --> 01:22:51.239
thinking, and the campaign was thinking, that Trump will burn out and then

951
01:22:51.279 --> 01:22:56.239
Cruise will pick up all of those
voters. I think Vivic Remiswamy's camp is

952
01:22:56.239 --> 01:22:59.079
thinking sort of the same thing,
is that he's sort of the fallback guy.

953
01:22:59.159 --> 01:23:02.640
Right then, That's why he never
attacks Trump. Remeswami never goes directly

954
01:23:02.680 --> 01:23:06.279
at Trump. Same thing for De
Santis. You're walking a line where you

955
01:23:06.319 --> 01:23:11.079
cannot alienate the Trump voters because you're
going to need them. If not,

956
01:23:12.199 --> 01:23:14.359
you know, peeling some away in
the primary, you're going to need him

957
01:23:14.359 --> 01:23:15.720
in the general. And there are
a lot of people that are only Trumpers,

958
01:23:15.800 --> 01:23:17.960
right, You've got a lot of
never Trumpers, but there are only

959
01:23:18.039 --> 01:23:23.079
Trumps too, and so they won't
come over especially, I mean you see

960
01:23:23.079 --> 01:23:26.119
some of the more outlandish claims and
stuff that are going on. So,

961
01:23:26.279 --> 01:23:30.399
now what De Santis is doing,
and I think this is actually his strong

962
01:23:30.439 --> 01:23:33.560
suit, is going head on with
the media. He's going into these uh

963
01:23:33.840 --> 01:23:39.399
into these interviews with quote mainstream or
legacy media outlets, and I think he

964
01:23:39.439 --> 01:23:43.119
does well there. He did well
with the Jake Kapper interview. Didn't get

965
01:23:43.119 --> 01:23:46.239
a lot of coverage because he did
well, and Donald Trump got indicted,

966
01:23:46.279 --> 01:23:50.199
and so like there's another you know
component here is that, yeah, Trump,

967
01:23:50.279 --> 01:23:55.960
you know, gobbles up a lot
of the oxygen because he gets indicted

968
01:23:56.039 --> 01:24:00.840
and he's he's winning every single news
cycle because he gets indicted all the time

969
01:24:00.880 --> 01:24:04.960
apparently, and so there are all
these stories about the indictments and they're easy

970
01:24:05.039 --> 01:24:10.920
to do. People have inside sources
and stuff, and in those liberal outlets,

971
01:24:11.279 --> 01:24:14.159
that's what people want to read.
It's it's Trump porn. You know.

972
01:24:14.359 --> 01:24:16.079
I'm sorry, I don't need to
don't need to create a visual there,

973
01:24:16.119 --> 01:24:20.239
but like that's it's this focus on
Trump because that's what moves the meter

974
01:24:20.479 --> 01:24:25.760
for a lot of these legacy outlets, and so they can keep covering that

975
01:24:26.199 --> 01:24:29.880
and get the clicks and get the
traffic, and hey, you know what

976
01:24:29.920 --> 01:24:32.439
if it elevates Trump and his poll
numbers go up and he wins the primary,

977
01:24:32.479 --> 01:24:35.680
get him into the general even better
because they think they can beat him

978
01:24:35.680 --> 01:24:40.159
in the general. Well, it's
uh, you know, speaking of the

979
01:24:40.159 --> 01:24:44.920
the coverage there, Um, you're
obviously you you said you were jipping some

980
01:24:45.000 --> 01:24:51.000
of the whistleblower hearings. Um,
Jamie Raskin is all in right, He's

981
01:24:51.000 --> 01:24:56.560
willing to defend whatever there was.
And I only watched probably about thirty minutes

982
01:24:56.640 --> 01:25:01.880
live yesterday. There was there was
a vibe among the Democrats on the committee

983
01:25:01.880 --> 01:25:06.520
there, with the exception of the
ranking member who wants to make this all

984
01:25:06.560 --> 01:25:14.279
about racism, but there was a
vibe among Democrats where they looked beat down,

985
01:25:14.840 --> 01:25:17.960
do you like, to the point
where they didn't want to end up

986
01:25:17.960 --> 01:25:23.520
in any news story about this because
it's not going well for Biden. And

987
01:25:23.560 --> 01:25:28.119
I understand everyone's like the Kraken's coming
all the rest, but ultimately you could

988
01:25:28.199 --> 01:25:33.760
tell the enthusiasm for many of the
Democratic members just wasn't there yesterday well or

989
01:25:33.760 --> 01:25:38.640
the day before. So he had
yesterday was the sense of the weaponization of

990
01:25:38.680 --> 01:25:42.960
government right the censorship right hearing the
day before was the I R S whistleblower,

991
01:25:43.000 --> 01:25:47.720
and it's I agree they are not
addressing Democrats on those panels were not

992
01:25:47.760 --> 01:25:53.600
addressing the issue at hand. They
talked about everything, but they were talking

993
01:25:53.640 --> 01:25:57.760
about racism. They were talking about
you know, censor an RFK getting them

994
01:25:57.800 --> 01:26:01.960
off, talking about anti semitism yesterday, anything except to talk about the actual

995
01:26:02.079 --> 01:26:08.600
material of the hearing. The focus
of the hearing was whether or not government

996
01:26:09.000 --> 01:26:15.119
is pressuring or has pressured social media
companies to censor views that the government believes

997
01:26:15.239 --> 01:26:18.920
is double plus un good and it
has it has done that. This is

998
01:26:18.920 --> 01:26:26.319
the lawsuit what at a Missouri and
Arkansas and so they're not They don't address

999
01:26:26.640 --> 01:26:30.399
the core issue at play. They
didn't do it two days ago during the

1000
01:26:30.960 --> 01:26:38.239
IRS whistleblower There wasn't there wasn't a
single counter argument made. And I watched

1001
01:26:38.239 --> 01:26:41.960
all of that one, all five
and a half. Yeah. Yeah,

1002
01:26:42.199 --> 01:26:46.720
they presented no counter narrative except the
closest they came to a legitimate, plausible

1003
01:26:46.800 --> 01:26:53.520
counter explanation was this was the prosecutor's
discretion. But they had no answer for

1004
01:26:53.720 --> 01:26:58.720
all of the blocking that the assistant
US Attorney did Leslie Wolf up in Delaware

1005
01:26:58.960 --> 01:27:01.520
at every stage, and they wanted
to interview Hunter Biden, they wanted access

1006
01:27:01.560 --> 01:27:06.920
to Pepa. Do you want to
hang out for another segment? Yeah,

1007
01:27:06.920 --> 01:27:10.720
because otherwise I would feel like I'm
being censored. All right, so hang

1008
01:27:10.760 --> 01:27:21.640
on, We'll be right back with
Pete Calendar America one six one FM Talk

1009
01:27:21.920 --> 01:27:27.760
and ninety four five w PTI,
two stations driving the best in talk.

1010
01:27:28.319 --> 01:27:33.520
This is Casey O Day and Carolina's
Morning News. All right, welcome back,

1011
01:27:33.560 --> 01:27:39.520
eight thirty six. Good Friday morning
to you. Um, you got

1012
01:27:39.560 --> 01:27:43.079
Pete Calendars is still hanging out with
us. I'm appreciate it, sir.

1013
01:27:43.279 --> 01:27:46.000
I know, I'm sure you got
better things to do. But ABP,

1014
01:27:46.920 --> 01:27:55.359
what's that? ABP? Always be
prepping? Really? Is that a Glenn

1015
01:27:55.479 --> 01:28:00.479
Arry Glenn Ross been off there,
don't I don't know. ABC always been

1016
01:28:00.479 --> 01:28:04.279
closing? Yeah. I watched that
movie the other day and I have never

1017
01:28:04.319 --> 01:28:08.640
seen it, and I've been ridiculed
for Nazi having seen it. So it

1018
01:28:08.720 --> 01:28:11.079
is one of the movies I have
to see. I mean, you should

1019
01:28:11.119 --> 01:28:14.760
see it. I'm not going to
ridicule you. Um, it's a little

1020
01:28:14.880 --> 01:28:19.439
niche, but you know us working
around salespeople, so you know there's a

1021
01:28:19.720 --> 01:28:24.000
there's a certain element to that.
Um I was just reading something during the

1022
01:28:24.000 --> 01:28:26.079
bread I was going to go in
a different direction, but let me run

1023
01:28:26.119 --> 01:28:33.199
this by you because it's amazing.
Apparently the studio that produced the Oppenheimer movie,

1024
01:28:33.520 --> 01:28:41.720
which opens today, they they're a
little surprised. As part of their

1025
01:28:41.760 --> 01:28:47.479
worldwide release strategy, apparently they got
lukewarm reception from theaters in Japan, so

1026
01:28:47.600 --> 01:28:53.720
they've now decided that they're not going
to they haven't announced a date to release

1027
01:28:53.760 --> 01:28:58.960
it. Did they think that,
like that was gonna go well in Japan?

1028
01:28:59.479 --> 01:29:05.560
I mean, fran why which why
why Japan? Why would they have

1029
01:29:05.600 --> 01:29:10.760
a problem with the moving I can't
imagine. Ross made the point off the

1030
01:29:10.800 --> 01:29:14.560
area. He's like, look,
Japan wouldn't be what Japan is if it

1031
01:29:14.720 --> 01:29:18.039
literally wasn't for those bombs, which
you know, it's a little new once.

1032
01:29:18.159 --> 01:29:21.880
But that's that's a fair argument.
Yeah, at the risk of at

1033
01:29:21.880 --> 01:29:27.159
the risk of going down a path
that people can misconstrue and take out of

1034
01:29:27.199 --> 01:29:31.760
context. There is right, there
is this entire um line of thinking,

1035
01:29:31.800 --> 01:29:38.800
like alternative historical fiction, right,
where like, what what would have happened

1036
01:29:39.159 --> 01:29:42.560
had uh, you know, the
Battle of Gettysburg gone differently? Right,

1037
01:29:42.560 --> 01:29:45.760
would if they had gotten up on
top of a little round top earlier with

1038
01:29:45.840 --> 01:29:47.880
the Confederative one would have changed the
direction? Right, So all of that

1039
01:29:47.960 --> 01:29:53.359
kind of stuff. Um, there's
then this part is true, which is

1040
01:29:53.359 --> 01:29:59.600
like China, Um, their development
was actually stinied by their invention of paper

1041
01:29:59.600 --> 01:30:01.840
because used it for everything, which
was great for them at the time,

1042
01:30:01.880 --> 01:30:08.479
but then they weren't able to advance
and discover glassmaking, which held them back

1043
01:30:08.560 --> 01:30:12.000
in many other ways. Right.
So along those same lines, there is

1044
01:30:12.239 --> 01:30:15.399
there's called I think it's called like
the leap frog technological leap frog effect where

1045
01:30:15.760 --> 01:30:20.479
for example, a lot of countries
in Africa they don't have cable TV,

1046
01:30:20.880 --> 01:30:28.079
but they are more saturated on a
per capita basis with Wi Fi because that

1047
01:30:28.159 --> 01:30:31.960
was the technology of the day when
they could afford to start putting that stuff

1048
01:30:32.000 --> 01:30:36.600
in. And there is an argument
about Japan that because it was so devastated

1049
01:30:36.720 --> 01:30:42.520
much like Europe after World War Two, that they got to rebuild with new

1050
01:30:42.640 --> 01:30:47.199
stuff instead of being locked in like
old cities around the world that you like

1051
01:30:47.359 --> 01:30:55.199
New York city. That's like a
great saturation of satellite dishes and antenna because

1052
01:30:55.760 --> 01:31:00.800
running cable into all those old buildings
was virtually impossible. You know what that

1053
01:31:00.960 --> 01:31:04.000
is A that is a as somebody
who is a huge fan of history,

1054
01:31:04.119 --> 01:31:10.720
that makes abundance. I remember reading
a story about South Korea and they were

1055
01:31:10.760 --> 01:31:16.640
talking about, um, how forward
they were able to push technology because part

1056
01:31:16.680 --> 01:31:23.720
of it was other countries wanting to
basically give a big f you to China

1057
01:31:23.920 --> 01:31:29.680
and North Korea so that they you
know, they essentially we were willing to

1058
01:31:30.159 --> 01:31:34.199
make investments within the South Korean community, which allowed obviously that to grow into

1059
01:31:34.199 --> 01:31:36.840
what it is. So, yeah, I think you're one hundred percent right

1060
01:31:36.920 --> 01:31:42.239
man. Yeah, But of course
if you try to have nuanced discussions like

1061
01:31:42.359 --> 01:31:45.920
that, people start saying, oh, so, what you know, nuking

1062
01:31:45.000 --> 01:31:49.000
Japan and we're dropping an atomic bomb, you know, on two cities and

1063
01:31:49.239 --> 01:31:51.760
killing all those people, like that
was a good thing. Like, like,

1064
01:31:51.880 --> 01:31:56.920
I'm not saying that's a good thing
obviously, although it did I think,

1065
01:31:57.439 --> 01:32:00.920
uh it did change. It changed
the outcome of the war obviously,

1066
01:32:00.920 --> 01:32:04.680
and it was really the only way
to end it and to protect as many

1067
01:32:04.760 --> 01:32:09.359
lives as possible. That would have
been lost in uh, you know,

1068
01:32:09.920 --> 01:32:14.359
uh street to hand to hand combat
fighting for years and years and years.

1069
01:32:14.399 --> 01:32:18.159
So I mean war is the breakdown
of law. So there there's no there's

1070
01:32:18.159 --> 01:32:24.000
no more constraints, right, so
people rightfully want to avoid it. And

1071
01:32:24.079 --> 01:32:27.720
this actually ties back to sort of
that censorship argument, which is that if

1072
01:32:27.720 --> 01:32:33.960
we cannot have these political disagreements,
even about sensitive, nuanced topics, then

1073
01:32:34.319 --> 01:32:38.439
then all you're saying is Okay,
I can't comment on this thing, but

1074
01:32:38.600 --> 01:32:43.000
you can. And that's just a
mite makes right argument. And so the

1075
01:32:43.079 --> 01:32:46.640
only thing left, the only recourse
left is violence, is revolution, and

1076
01:32:46.680 --> 01:32:50.600
that's what is that that's what we
want to avoid, even because it's not.

1077
01:32:50.880 --> 01:32:55.000
That's what the moral thing to do. If you can, if you

1078
01:32:55.039 --> 01:33:00.279
can avoid violence and solve your differences
with words, then that's the pre rible

1079
01:33:00.359 --> 01:33:02.680
route to take. Yeah, I
think there. And they do this every

1080
01:33:02.760 --> 01:33:08.479
year on the anniversary of essentially that
week when we did drop the two bombs.

1081
01:33:08.840 --> 01:33:12.439
So and it's generally some moonbat professor
writes this thing where they're like,

1082
01:33:12.479 --> 01:33:16.640
we didn't need to do that,
and and and they are disingenuous about the

1083
01:33:16.680 --> 01:33:21.119
calculations that went into it, like
they painted as uh, you know,

1084
01:33:21.159 --> 01:33:25.960
a bunch of dudes in uniform wanted
to try out their new toy rather than

1085
01:33:26.680 --> 01:33:30.119
you know, the evaluation that by
doing this and putting to stop, um,

1086
01:33:30.159 --> 01:33:34.199
they had what they estimated to be
the body count, and it was

1087
01:33:34.399 --> 01:33:40.960
far more significant should that war have
drug out. So but I want to

1088
01:33:41.000 --> 01:33:44.239
real quickly go into different This is
why I held you over. Um.

1089
01:33:44.319 --> 01:33:47.640
Did you see the op ed piece
in the letter from the Harvard law professor

1090
01:33:47.680 --> 01:33:54.680
Mark Tushnitt Tushant Tushnit. Yeah,
I've seen his name coming across the trensom,

1091
01:33:54.800 --> 01:33:58.560
but I have not. I have
not explored that topic yet. All

1092
01:33:58.640 --> 01:34:02.359
right, real quick, I'll just
give you the readers digest because this is

1093
01:34:02.399 --> 01:34:09.840
what he's advocating, President Biden.
Do Tushnet who is he said some really

1094
01:34:10.079 --> 01:34:14.159
in saying crap over the years,
But if you want to talk about something

1095
01:34:14.239 --> 01:34:19.159
that would literally push us to the
brink of us not existing as a country

1096
01:34:19.159 --> 01:34:26.119
anymore, here it is. He
is urging President Biden to quote disobey gravely

1097
01:34:26.279 --> 01:34:33.680
mistaken Supreme Court rulings and instead adopt
the official policy position that the White House

1098
01:34:33.920 --> 01:34:41.239
will do what they're going to do
based on their own interpretation of the Constitution.

1099
01:34:42.720 --> 01:34:46.000
Um, he's got like six bullet
points or something. I told the

1100
01:34:46.039 --> 01:34:48.520
story and I just kind of glanced
at it. I did not go in

1101
01:34:48.560 --> 01:34:53.319
depth because I think you know,
people are yeah, people are pointing out

1102
01:34:53.359 --> 01:34:57.760
like what you're doing, I mean, which is kind of like ironic here

1103
01:34:57.880 --> 01:35:02.920
with what was Joe Biden positioned as
a restore to the norms? Right,

1104
01:35:03.000 --> 01:35:06.600
how dare Donald Trump blow up all
the norms? And of course this kind

1105
01:35:06.640 --> 01:35:12.079
of gets to that iron woke law
of projection, which is they are guilty

1106
01:35:12.079 --> 01:35:15.199
of that which they accuse you,
And this is another example of it.

1107
01:35:15.239 --> 01:35:18.720
They were also worried about Donald Trump's
mean tweets and look at this, He's

1108
01:35:18.800 --> 01:35:21.840
violating all of the norms and this
is not how we do things. And

1109
01:35:23.039 --> 01:35:27.399
now you've lost control of the Supreme
Court and all of a sudden, norms

1110
01:35:27.479 --> 01:35:31.319
right out the window. And we're
going to not basically just ignore the Supreme

1111
01:35:31.399 --> 01:35:34.359
Court. And yeah, sure,
what could go wrong? I mean,

1112
01:35:34.399 --> 01:35:40.800
you're overturning what one hundred hundred fifty
years of norms? Well yes, and

1113
01:35:41.319 --> 01:35:45.199
you know it reminds me of the
Harry Reid decision right where, but that

1114
01:35:45.239 --> 01:35:50.880
thing would pale in comparison to this. But yeah, every president then would

1115
01:35:50.880 --> 01:35:55.039
come in and go because that would
be the new standard, right, because

1116
01:35:55.079 --> 01:35:58.800
Republicans would do it if they got
the White House. Let's just be abundantly

1117
01:35:58.840 --> 01:36:00.520
honest. If that was the new
standard, they go all right, well

1118
01:36:00.560 --> 01:36:04.920
we're going to do this thing,
and pandemonium ensues. Well yeah, I

1119
01:36:04.920 --> 01:36:09.319
mean, and for the people who
were such the big defenders of democracy,

1120
01:36:09.359 --> 01:36:14.039
and you know, I'm high alert
for any kind of sign of um of

1121
01:36:14.159 --> 01:36:16.439
fascism. Well you know, and
this is what I is what I argued

1122
01:36:16.479 --> 01:36:19.840
to my liberal friends back when Trump
was in office, when they would start

1123
01:36:19.840 --> 01:36:23.960
talking about gun control. So why
would you want to give Donald Trump bull

1124
01:36:24.000 --> 01:36:27.520
of your guns? If he's a
fascist? Why wouldn't you want to have

1125
01:36:27.560 --> 01:36:30.960
some weaponry to protect yourself when he
takes everything over? And you know,

1126
01:36:31.039 --> 01:36:34.760
always be thinking in those terms that
there's that there's going to come a day

1127
01:36:34.760 --> 01:36:40.039
when someone you don't like is in
charge and pulling the levers of government,

1128
01:36:40.359 --> 01:36:44.239
and whatever power you give your guy, he's not going to be there forever

1129
01:36:44.640 --> 01:36:47.079
and someone else is going to be
pulling those levers, and you, you

1130
01:36:47.159 --> 01:36:51.840
know, you better make darn sure
that that you've not over empowered them to

1131
01:36:53.039 --> 01:36:55.800
ruin the country and your lives.
And this would be a really good example

1132
01:36:55.840 --> 01:36:59.119
of it. What if Trump wins
next year, you're going to so he

1133
01:36:59.159 --> 01:37:01.640
gets to ignore all Supreme Court rules. Well, they're arguing that he literally

1134
01:37:01.720 --> 01:37:08.399
is outlining a plan to seize quote
sees control of the government, and basically

1135
01:37:09.119 --> 01:37:14.319
everything that he proposed falls under the
veil of that branch of government, you

1136
01:37:14.359 --> 01:37:18.359
know, the executive branch. They
may not like it, where they're essentially

1137
01:37:18.479 --> 01:37:25.199
able to change out some bureaucrats,
but this is this is essentially deciding that

1138
01:37:25.239 --> 01:37:29.319
one of the branches doesn't exist anymore, and well for now, if we

1139
01:37:29.399 --> 01:37:31.880
can exist, if they control it, that's the key because and it really

1140
01:37:31.920 --> 01:37:36.239
lays bare the lie that they were
always like, oh judicial independence. No,

1141
01:37:36.520 --> 01:37:41.159
they were fine making those arguments when
they had control of the courts and

1142
01:37:41.279 --> 01:37:45.000
were able to divine new meanings behind
you know, one hundred year old texts.

1143
01:37:45.800 --> 01:37:48.439
That was fine. Now that they
don't control it anymore, it has

1144
01:37:48.520 --> 01:37:53.039
to be undermined. All right,
Pete, I appreciate you hanging on.

1145
01:37:53.159 --> 01:37:55.439
Got a couple of the gens and
there I got a roll man. We'll

1146
01:37:55.439 --> 01:37:58.840
talk next week. Okay, have
a great weekend, thanks guys. Yeah,

1147
01:37:58.880 --> 01:38:02.000
yeah, and let's go ahead and
chat weather with racet agent real quick.

1148
01:38:02.279 --> 01:38:04.960
What's going on, sir. Now, it's pretty nice out there this

1149
01:38:05.000 --> 01:38:09.520
morning, and the changes will be
a little drop in humidity and temperatures over

1150
01:38:09.560 --> 01:38:12.760
the weekend. Probably he's still going
to climb up eighties, low nineties today,

1151
01:38:12.800 --> 01:38:15.239
a little cloud at times, otherwise
sunshine, more clouds to the west

1152
01:38:15.520 --> 01:38:19.239
out into the mountains. I wouldn't
be shocked if there's a shower east as

1153
01:38:19.279 --> 01:38:24.039
you get out near the outer banks, with the front coming through around early

1154
01:38:24.119 --> 01:38:28.159
afternoon through the try in the triangle, then heading east later during peak heating.

1155
01:38:29.119 --> 01:38:31.760
Saturday, partial sunshine, there might
be a sprinkle of rain, upper

1156
01:38:31.760 --> 01:38:35.760
eighties, and then on Sunday it's
upper eighties around maybe a shower thuder shower

1157
01:38:35.760 --> 01:38:40.079
in the afternoon. Humidity is probably
coming down a little bit over the weekend,

1158
01:38:40.159 --> 01:38:43.159
with the temperatures coming down just a
bit. Next week, they'll look

1159
01:38:43.199 --> 01:38:47.479
sunny and hot starting about Tuesday,
and that he could last potentially for the

1160
01:38:47.479 --> 01:38:50.239
rest of the week. All right, appreciate it. Have a good weekend,

1161
01:38:50.239 --> 01:38:54.960
sir. Yeah, and we'll come
back and chat with Jeff Bellinger next,

1162
01:38:55.000 --> 01:39:11.239
Hang on Your Day, Smarter one
oh six one FM Talk and News

1163
01:39:11.279 --> 01:39:17.960
Talk nine four five WPTI more with
Casey starts now all right, Good morning.

1164
01:39:18.039 --> 01:39:23.800
It is eight fifty three and Jeff
Bellinger joins us from Bloomberg News.

1165
01:39:23.800 --> 01:39:26.840
What's up, Jeff, Well,
Good morning, Casey. Happy Friday.

1166
01:39:26.880 --> 01:39:30.520
Stock sended mixed yesterday. The Dow
extended its winning streak to a ninth session.

1167
01:39:30.840 --> 01:39:35.359
About the NASDAC and SNP both finished
lower. Futures are higher now this

1168
01:39:35.439 --> 01:39:40.279
morning. Right across the board,
SNP, NAZDAC and now futures all pointing

1169
01:39:40.399 --> 01:39:44.159
up. American workers feeling a little
more upbeat about the job market. A

1170
01:39:44.239 --> 01:39:48.199
survey by LinkedIn found that members confidence
and their ability to find or hold a

1171
01:39:48.319 --> 01:39:53.000
job is at its highest level in
four months, thanks to a slow down

1172
01:39:53.039 --> 01:39:58.119
in the number of layoffs and a
lowered risk of recession. AMC Entertainment tested

1173
01:39:58.119 --> 01:40:01.840
a policy of charging more for the
best seats in its movie theaters. Didn't

1174
01:40:01.840 --> 01:40:06.920
go over well with customers, so
AMC is abandoning that idea. AMC's next

1175
01:40:06.960 --> 01:40:12.720
test will involve a new type of
spacious front row seat that reclines, giving

1176
01:40:12.760 --> 01:40:16.439
the theater go or a better view
of the screen. Two federal agencies racing

1177
01:40:16.479 --> 01:40:21.279
concerns over medical tracking software, the
Department of Health and Human Services and the

1178
01:40:21.319 --> 01:40:27.319
Federal Trade Commission, have sent letters
to hospital systems and telehealth providers. The

1179
01:40:27.399 --> 01:40:33.239
agencies warned that online tracking programs integrated
into medical websites could lead to patients data

1180
01:40:33.319 --> 01:40:39.600
being disclosed to third parties. Officials
still assessing the extent of damage to the

1181
01:40:39.640 --> 01:40:44.239
Fiser plant in Rocky Mount that was
hit by a tornado this week. Hospital

1182
01:40:44.319 --> 01:40:47.880
drug buyers need to know whether a
shortage of medications could become worse. That

1183
01:40:48.039 --> 01:40:54.319
Fiser facility produces a large share of
the injectable drugs used by hospitals in the

1184
01:40:54.439 --> 01:41:00.279
US and overseas. And there's a
chance now that Microsoft and Activision blue It

1185
01:41:00.319 --> 01:41:03.720
could be able to settle the government's
anti trust concerns about their proposed merger.

1186
01:41:03.880 --> 01:41:10.279
Casey, The Federal Trade Commission has
paused its in house trial against the sixty

1187
01:41:10.359 --> 01:41:15.039
nine billion dollar deal, and that
opens the door to settlement talks. Casey.

1188
01:41:15.720 --> 01:41:18.079
Alrighty, Jeff, have yourself a
good weekend, sir, and we'll

1189
01:41:18.079 --> 01:41:20.600
talk Monday. Okay, you have
a good weekend as well. Take care

1190
01:41:20.600 --> 01:41:24.880
of all right there you go,
Jeff Flinger from Bloomberg News. Before we

1191
01:41:24.920 --> 01:41:30.279
head into the weekend. Unfortunately,
we got to do some canceling, and

1192
01:41:30.720 --> 01:41:38.159
frankly this is going to impact quite
a few of you. It's two taker

1193
01:41:38.199 --> 01:41:45.720
bills canceling. According to this piece
in The Guardian yesterday, traditional wives.

1194
01:41:46.359 --> 01:41:55.880
Yep, traditional wives canceled. So
I'm not gonna have enough time to read

1195
01:41:55.920 --> 01:42:00.159
all the goodness from this article,
but basically the gist is the traditional wife

1196
01:42:00.199 --> 01:42:11.159
subculture shares aesthetics and values, including
long floral dresses let's see here so long,

1197
01:42:12.479 --> 01:42:21.880
basically modest dresses that are problematic.
Also, the desire by some women

1198
01:42:21.960 --> 01:42:33.239
to stay at home and quote serve
their spouse domestically and sexually, all problematic.

1199
01:42:33.760 --> 01:42:41.199
So the gist is, according to
the feminist author here, any you

1200
01:42:41.199 --> 01:42:48.239
know, women who dress modestly,
women who choose to stay in the home,

1201
01:42:48.920 --> 01:42:53.720
and we're you know, uh caregiving
because they get into kids too,

1202
01:42:54.800 --> 01:42:57.920
you know, women who feel that
they have to have more than one kid

1203
01:42:59.000 --> 01:43:10.600
are tru referred to as trad wives
and our victims. Basically the aligned with

1204
01:43:10.680 --> 01:43:16.640
traditional Christian values of marriage and family
that previously shaped our civilization and subjugated women.

1205
01:43:19.199 --> 01:43:23.760
So, any of you listening who
are going to wear an outfit today,

1206
01:43:23.800 --> 01:43:26.960
Any of the ladies listening, you're
going to wear an outfit today where

1207
01:43:27.000 --> 01:43:31.560
you can't literally see your womb?
You are a victim of the patriarchy.

1208
01:43:31.720 --> 01:43:39.039
So and God forbid you stay home. But by the way, it's not

1209
01:43:39.119 --> 01:43:45.560
just stay at home wives. It's
also women who feel that they have an

1210
01:43:45.600 --> 01:43:50.479
obligation to either be the primary caregiver
or do the majority of chores around the

1211
01:43:50.520 --> 01:43:56.199
home. So even if you have
a job, you're on the list here.

1212
01:43:56.640 --> 01:44:03.840
But yeah, everything just so dumb. And then at the very end,

1213
01:44:03.880 --> 01:44:08.039
she also points out that the majority
of those who would fall into this

1214
01:44:08.199 --> 01:44:13.520
are quote unquote white, and she
writes, and of course they're white.

1215
01:44:14.760 --> 01:44:18.199
So, um, if I guess
if you're a white woman wearing a modest

1216
01:44:18.880 --> 01:44:26.760
dress or a long floral dress of
any sort today and you enjoy taking care

1217
01:44:26.800 --> 01:44:30.359
of your kids and or your spouse, um, you're you're the problem.

1218
01:44:30.600 --> 01:44:39.039
So don't do that. Ah,
I don't know anything about the author here.

1219
01:44:39.159 --> 01:44:41.840
Ross, what do you think the
over under is on? This person

1220
01:44:42.000 --> 01:44:45.079
is happy in their personal life?
Oh dude, they're miserable. She even

1221
01:44:45.079 --> 01:44:48.760
looks miserable. In her head shot
here, and even their cats are miserable.

1222
01:44:49.520 --> 01:44:56.640
How all the cats? That's like
fifteen cats. Yeah, you gonna

1223
01:44:56.680 --> 01:45:00.279
mentioned cats in here. I didn't
see anything about cats, So that's crazy.

1224
01:45:00.319 --> 01:45:06.800
Man. All the things you could
write about problematic and modern culture,

1225
01:45:08.319 --> 01:45:14.159
and your beef is with people who
are happy and don't flood it up around

1226
01:45:14.239 --> 01:45:19.399
town, God forbid. All right, on that note, little Chap Monday
