For those of you who don't know, I am broadcasting from our Greensboro station
ninety four to five WPTI, and specifically our brand new facilities would sit in
downtown High Point in this building they renovated. They got a food haul in
it. It's right next to the baseball stadium. I had some delicious tacos
and brisket yesterday, and it is really really cool to see what they have
done down here, except it's my first time in the building. Like they
moved in just like a couple weeks ago, and I haven't done at Greensboro
Broadcast since then. So I'm sitting there and I roll in this morning about
about twenty minutes for the show, go to scan my little fob. Now,
yesterday I was able to gain access to the buildings that somebody else's fob,
and then they gave me one yesterday after the show, once everybody got
here and I couldn't get the building standing out front had called poor Ross this
morning. I'm like, hey, buddy, I hope you got some evergreens
So I don't know what did you what did you play them? I didn't
even hear Pete counter from Friday, so did the police come by because I
called him and reported a prowler. Okay, I just want to say this
the you're not gonna get away with anything in High Point, Okay, So
for all of you little vandal pieces of garbage. If my experience, standing
on the front on Elm Street, which is where the studios are, it's
kind of main the main drags there, and like the amount of slow roll
eyeballing I got from members of the safety community, because there was even a
guy in a firefighter's at SUV this morning, Like what is that dude doing?
And I'm just standing there on the corner eating a banana. You know
what you do right before you heist something. I don't know. If you
guys know this, you don't want to You don't want to conduct a heist
with low potassium it has this is this is how they've caught many important guys.
Now I'm just standing there like I'm not trying to I mean, I
am trying to break in, but I'm not really trying to break in.
So and so one of the other morning shows had to. But they're like
doing a remote they're not even in the building right away because they're doing some
remote broadcastings. So one of them had, Oh dude, it's just what
a morning, What an absolute morning. But here we are trucking away with
our highly compressed mic sound banging away in my ear. But uh hey,
you know we'll go ahead and get through it all right. Coming up on
the show, we got rodeo bulls. I w I have literally been in
this situation. Thankfully there was not the injuries there was here. But I
have an escaped rodeo bullst worry, because of course I do. Actually I
have a couple if I think about it, but I have one that stands
out in my head. And the reason is you are bringing in a bunch
of animals, your rodeo bulls. You get the bucking horses, and you
know you've got them in a temporary setting if you've brought them over to like
a fair grounds or an arena where you've done this, and yeah, you're
gonna have a you know, a big complex shoot system back there. But
at the end of the day, they're amped up. They're there around a
bunch of people, usually a lot more than they are on a daily basis,
and literally their job is to be surly. Man. That's the gig.
You don't you don't. You don't show out on uh on. You
know, when it's your turn in the shoot, you're not long for the
shoot if you catch my drift. So plus you get you bring in flank
straps, and it's a whole thing. We don't have to get into that
part. But there's this video and Oregon where a rodeo bowl hopped a fence
surrounding the arena and then just started running through the concessions area. So and
you know, concessions over at an event like that, obviously you get you
know, you got people standing in a beer line, people buying hot dogs,
which probably if they're all beef, the bull is not pleased with.
And you know, you got people selling belt buckles and all sorts of stuff.
It's really a concessions area. And a good rodeo is a lot of
fun. There's a lot of cool stuff there. I'd mean, I I
do miss that aspect of all the different local county fairs and and summer rodeo
things around that was that was a really great part of growing up. But
we've had we had a bull get out once and yeah, it goes barreling
through there. Man, Except this one. The fair grounds in Johnson County.
There's no tea Johnson County, Wyoming, which is where I grew up.
The fair grounds are right in the elbow of where I twenty five and
I ninety meet, so where those two interstates converge on the edge of town.
The fair grounds are right there. And where the shoots are for all
the critters, they're on the backside, right adjacent to the interstate, just
down a hill. And this bull got out at the far And Rodeo one
September and goes barreling through. And you got to understand, people are camping
there, most of the traveler rodeo folks. They have like campers or tents.
The kids, we would we could tent camp out there, which we
would do, so you know, we're we're not around. The adults were
having fun breaking the law, and so everybody's there and this bull gets out,
and I want to say it was one of Jim Geiten's bulls, and
he has really good bucking bull stuff that he's brought into like PBR and stuff.
Anyway, so this bull gets out and just goes barreling through there.
And what killed me is like you had people diving into tents if you want
to do the math on that for a moment while your little pup boy scout
tent probably isn't gonna save you from the bull. But yeah, you make
rash decisions. But this thing really doesn't knock into people. Now, this
one in Oregon injured I think six people. Three people had to go to
the hospital. And he was the bounty bull, So you don't know what
that is. He that's like, that's like the badge of honor. Baby
that's the badass and gets out there knocks into a bunch of people. Our
bull did the thing. It I think it did hurt somebody, but not
bad. But then it kicked into genius mode, I guess, and it
figured out that the fence on the very south end of the property for the
fairgrounds, because there's not usually livestock, isn't that firm, and he just
goes right through it like the kool aid man. And we're watching this because
now everybody with a horse or a rope is trying to catch this thing because
they want to be the one that ropes a bull, which, by the
way, been there. Don't do that unless you got something to attach it
to, because you ain't gonna win and he goes barreling through there, runs
up the embankment is standing on I twenty five, stops and like a scene
out of a movie, a semi trailer comes flying around at you know,
like eighty and hits that thing square. The driver was fine, amazingly,
if you've never seen what a full sized bull will do to a anything,
it's really destructive and bad news for the bull too. So I was sitting
there watching that video and I'm like, yeah, this could have been so
much worse, and kind of like reminiscing on that thought there, man,
But yeah, bull knocking over garbage cans, sending people scrambling, lifts one
person off the ground, and then just runs over others. But it's a
crazy video. So since it's been a crazy morning, I thought I'd start
with a crazy video before we get to the crazy stupid news, which you
know, we got plenty of that as well, including we need to stop
an invasion. So there's yes, Yet this is not going to be purely
passive listening this morning. Something has happened. It's not okay. I see
that it is now a product of like under you know, based on a
news story the other day, which is kind of like running is there to
psyche you out so you don't see what's happening. And we're not gonna let
it happen. Not in America, not where the bulls can run free unless
your cow unless you cowboy up enough to stop them. So we're gonna cowboy
up. We'll do that next here on the CaCO Day Radio program, the
CaCO Day Radio Program phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven
four gonna be on the show. That's how we make it happen there.
Sorry, just checking something. Okay, ah, what a morning? What
a morning. By the way, there's one little nugget on the on the
rodeo bull story. In fact, I do have audio which I can now
access, so we get into this and you're not really gonna be able to
hear it. But the whole time that this bull is running a muck,
the crowd is doing a sing along because there's an event. Obviously there's a
rodeo event going on, so they're doing they're doing a sing along, and
so it's Lee Greenwood's God Bless the USA banging away while this bull is banging
away. Get the higher ground open. I will say this, I don't
understand this going to higher ground. It is my experience a bull will gladly
run up the hill it wants to. But okay, all rightbody behind me
was just yelling, and it was everybody was just trying to get out of
the way. Video is an inherently dangerous sport, and especially bull riding,
but it is a very rare occasion. We've never had it here at sister's
rodeo. It does happen, But what we do we plan for it?
I don't know I and it didn't look like it. It's a what happened
is exactly what happened, And I like, there's not some big game plan
at a row. If you go if you ever go out to Wyoming,
you go to Cody, Wyoming. They have they have rodeos literally all the
time for the tourists. In fact, a lot of guys that I grew
up with that did high school sports, uh, they would try to go
make money on the weekends going over and doing the Cody rodeos and uh yeah,
bull riding. I'll just tear you up. Every guy that I knew
roade bulls had his shoulder decided to not be attached to where it's supposed to
at least some point during his high school career. But it is Oregon,
so you know, we have to get a little touchy. Night was a
rarity as a stock contractor hired by the Sisters Rodeo and representing the Sisters Rodeo.
You know, that's not something that we ever want to have happened.
We obviously can't replicate that scenario, but we're gonna take him home, buck
him again, do some training with him, and try to you know,
never put him in that situation again. Uh again, I don't know what
the situation what he was bountyable, he was premiumble, they called different stuff,
a different rodeos, different names, but he's the man that day,
So I don't know. He had himself a big day other than that,
right, ye know, things are pretty boring, especially with uh if you're
when you're dealing with rodeo stock, because you're not you're not intermixing everybody.
But there you go, there's your there's your bull update for you. All
right, we gotta we gotta get into this. I became angry watching the
the flavor of this story, the way that it was being the way that
it was being covered, The narrative that had seemingly affixed here. And uh,
even though I'll bet that this guy is an a hole on wheels one
hundred percent, it's he didn't do anything wrong in my opinion. So this
guy, you know, up in New York, they got to have whoever
they're evil purse they're caring of the week is or this woman yelled at a
guy who's just he was out just bird watching, and then you find out
weeks and weeks or sometimes months later that this story's not as simple as that
she's not some racist Karen. Or remember the city bike nurse. Remember that
whole narrative with the city where the she stole that she was stealing the city
bike from these three young black men, and she's a big fat racist and
now she's crying because she wants them to be emmett tilled. Those are not
my words. That was actual analysis. If you remembered that story, well,
then it turned out she didn't. It turned out the day they were
trying to utilize a bike, because there are different let me be very clear,
there are different types of those electric bikes, and the new ones are
the ones you want. So what you had is they wanted to have the
ones that they used to get over there. I guess they wanted the new
ones there for later when they actually wanted to pay for them. So they
were running people off who were trying to get those new bikes and then they
would leave, but they weren't paying to use them right then. They just
wanted them there for later. So what was going on was way outside the
bounds of what should be going on and is dishonest. But the whole narrative
was and they immediately suspend her from her job. She's pregnant, and everyone
labeled her a big fat racist. Well now we have the the evil banker
New York City banker slugged woman at pride event. Oh man, and that
sounds horrible, right, You're the dude from Billions, right, You're just
walking through there punching LGBT people because I don't know your merger didn't go through
or whatever. I mean, that is the narrative they put out there,
and I'm reading this story and there's so much more to it. An investment
banker caught on video slugging a woman in the face during the Brooklyn Pride Parade
lashed out during an argument about the war and Gaza. A source said,
here's what actually happened. He didn't lash out during an argument because there was
just a verbal argument. It is so disingenuous. What is absolutely clear is
this dude. Dude comes walking out of where he lives. It's in Park
Slope, Brooklyn. It's basically Manhattan. It's hipster central by the way near
Williamsburg there, and so it's his it's his moon, batted up as any
slice of real estate in this whole us of a. So he comes walking
out of there and they're, you know, they're having all they're having all
this events, but they're also having protests that within the LGBT group there's the
pro Hamas folks and they're screaming at everybody, and he's not participating. We
have a behind the scenes controversy. I gotta I gotta bring some folks in
on. Poor Rosscott wrapped up in it. He didn't do anything, but
I'm as you know, I'm doing the show today from the Greensboro Studio,
our brand new studio facility where my fob didn't allow me to come in this
morning. So what a day. And I popped down in the studio here
for ninety four or five WPTI it's cool. I was talking to you to
say, it's like a spaceship in here. Love it. And then I
start trying to move stuff around. And you got to know that in a
radio studio you're gonna have three to four computers you're using simultaneously. And so
for me and I guess it's really the same for Ross, he's just on
the other side of it. We have what's called a next gen computer,
and next gen think of it as like the log if you ever see like
a radio log where they got all the stuff run. And that's one.
We have a call screener computer, so when you guys call in, he
has to go to that separate computer and then key in your name what you
want to talk about, and then I can then access it in my studio
to put you on the air or hang up on you if you're being dumb.
And then we have also your general catch hole, so you're gonna be
doing web browsing there. Your emails would probably be on that. And I'm
trying to think what I I guess audio editing for like putting podcasts together.
So anyway, you got three computers, so you got three separate mice monitors.
Sometimes you have a lot more than three, Like two of my computers
have double monitors. So again basically a spaceship. And you're using them,
and I use The way that I use them is I run mice with both
hands. Most people do, Ross does as well. You're you have mice
on the left and the right of you correct, okay, all right,
sandwich between a bunch of them. Yeah, yeah, and so you use
it. So I'm using my left handed my left hand here right now.
If I wanted to do the callscreen or if I want to play audio on
the button bar, that is the that's where you get you know, stuff
like that. Okay, and I start trying to use two of the mice.
The third one is my personal laptop and optical mouse with me, so
that works perfectly. The other two mice, the buttons are reversed. I
want you to understand what I'm telling you. So it's a mouse with the
rolling wheel in the middle and then the two top buttons. Some mice have
the other side one. These don't. They're a little you know, little
little novo mice. Pretty standard except when you go to then click, ah,
I want to use this mouse right here to click on my word document
that's got all my stories and to flip to another story in the navigation pain
and then you click it. It doesn't do anything. It does the thing
where it opens a little mini menu like that you want to expand collapse,
and you're like, what the heck did I hit the wrong button? And
I do this forever yesterday, And then I realized our program director has it
set up this way because he's the one who's primarily using this studio here for
all of his duties throughout the day. And I'm like, what is going
on? Jat my man? He goes, oh, yeah, no,
I'm left handed, so we have to reverse the buttons on the mice.
Now I'm not left handed. My sister is, and I remember as a
kid she had her scissors and she was very smug about it. Days are
my scissors, So of course I stole them because I'm big brother. Whatever
it's they're so important, man, I know, I look. I feel
bad about it now, but you know, when you're eight or ten,
what do you know? But I didn't know you guys did this to all
of your electronic equipment, render it useless. Because you also know another left
handed person that you've worked with for a long time now, because I am
left handed. Yes, yes, yeah, I didn't realize you guys screwed
everything up like this. I have never in my lifetime heard of this.
And I was up all night wrote tossing a turning in bed, trying to
figure out why it would even need to be a thing, like you said,
as a left handed person, there are things that are very hard or
almost impossible if you don't have them for a left hand like for instance,
like you said, the scissors. Now, a lot of people if you
are not left handed, you might not understand this because of the way that
the blades cross on a pair of scissors. If you're a left handed person
and you're using a basic pair of scissors, yes you can still cut the
paper, but it's hard to say, like cut over a line perfectly because
you can't see the line when you're cutting. Because of the way the blades
cross. Makes sense, makes sense, that is important to have. That
is a tool where when you use it, you'd be like, this is
hard. I need a different sort of tool, or I need to adapt
it or change it in some way. Same way with the basic thing like
writing on a piece of paper in elementary school when you're using the old you
know, the number two pencil, right, because if you're a right handed
person, you're writing left to right because that's how society works, and you
don't have to worry about smearing, well, not all of it. You
could convert to and start writing Arabic, which right correct correct, yes,
yes, but here in the United States that it's not what we do right.
So, as a left handed person writing when you're in grade school and
you know your your hands on the left, so your hand drops down and
you were going to naturally smear whatever you're writing, it's very hard to write
left to right and not smear your words. Basic stuff like this, where
you're like, this is the needs to change in some way. I have
never in my lifetime, and I've been using mouse as my entire life because
of the generation that we are right right, born in the late seventies,
early eighties, I've never in my lifetime used a mouse and been like this
is not workable or I need to change. I've never even thought of the
idea. It has never crossed my mind. I've never had an eye it's
never felt like an obstacle to me, like say a pair of scissors in
grade school. It's never been a thing as a left handed person. I've
never heard of this. And I was tossing and turning last night trying to
figure out if maybe it was me, right, I guess he called me
and he said he called me a derogatory term because he what I questioned it.
He goes, oh, no, that's what ross's left handed, He'll
tell you. And then I told you and you went, that's lunacy.
So I was tossing and turning lesson trying to figure out if maybe I'm weird
the way that I use it. But like I said, I've never it's
never even dawned on me that i'd have to change the buttons or if that
would even be possible. But like, I've never thought of it, like,
oh I wish these buttons were switched. It's making my life difficult.
It's never been a difficulty. So I came in this morning and the first
thing I did was I sat down because I was like, and maybe I
used the mouse in my right hand. I don't even realize it, and
the mouse on my left side controls the PC. I sit down on my
console here and my left hand goes in that mouse, and I'm going across
the screen in my PC and I'm closing stuff and I'm opening stuff and I'm
editing audio and it's no issue at all. Now the other one, I
have another one on my right hand side. This controls the next gen.
This controls the phone screener. I put my right hand down and I can
use it. Not an issue. It's not a problem. I can You're
a witch. I can use both simultaneously and not have any problem whatsoever.
And it would never even dawn on me that anything would possibly need to change.
Look, I'm opening closing a word document. I'm opening up a twitch.
I'm gonna check out the Hayes for sheriff. Oh wow, look that.
I'm gonna give myself some baby. You know I'm not one for self
promotion. So then over another one. Look at this. I'm I'm gonna
play a sound effect here, and it's not going to be a problem.
Are you ready for this? Here? All right? So, I don't
know, sounds like JT's story just got canceled. I don't understand. Not
only this, but they said it really did bother me because I never heard
this before. That maybe there's a problem with me as a left handed person.
Maybe it's me. I contacted a bunch of my left handed friends,
and oddly I have a lot of them. Maybe I don't know how this
worked out. It's one of these things where you got left handed militia.
What's going on here? So it's when they say, like my best friend
Michael in Chapel hillhere, I would have bouldozed his house one day. Yeah,
left hand best friend growing up in Schenectady, Phil left handed, old
interns left handed. So I contacted them and I'm like, hey, do
you have you guys? Do you guys switch your mouses around? Because you
have an issue with the mouse. And they had no idea what I was
talking about. And I explained it to him. I said, I said,
I have a boss who switches the left and right inputs on the mouse.
He says, because he's left handed. They said, we'd never heard
of that. Hold on, I'm gonna send him. I'm gonna send him
a text. We're gonna do it together. Hanging Hey, lefty, you're
getting demolished on the radio right now. Better dial in, But try to
get a phone with the numbers reversed and see how that works. Like,
I'm thinking about my my console, my radio board here. Now I love
being able to send our boss a message like that if you need to switch,
which is once again, I contacted a bunch of my left handed friends.
We've never heard of this for it, never even done. Was it
a thing like a pair of scissors where you're like, hey, I need
some different to do this task. Never even thought about if you're if you
need to switch the buttons on your mouse and he's in radio, then shouldn't
he also have to switch the entire layout of the console right, because the
concepts should be on the right and not the left. Yes, yes,
should be switched and then phones buried on the other side. Yes, yes,
it makes no sense. And this board, the new board in our
spaceship studio, allows you to assign each pot without having you know, normally
you'd have to rewire all that stuff, but you can just select it on
a digital screen here. And yet he was the last one to use it.
And I walked into the studio and he still had his stuff cued up
in here and it is laid out exactly as you would expect. Mike,
I'm on Mike, I'm on the first pot, which is the main microphone,
and then I got the return over tour. It's the middle of the
board, which is ross, and that creates a mixed minus here. That's
uh, you know how it's supposed to be. So it's just him,
is this story, I guess. And it doesn't matter. I mean,
if it works for him, if if it's easy, it matters for me
because I walk in here and I feel like I feel like a toddler.
I feel like I'm having a stroke right, Like my hand's not working because,
like you said, we've been using these computers, right, you've been
using a mouse since grade school forever. Yes, we play an Oregon Trail
or Lemonade Stand or whatever the game was at the time. You're used to
using it that way. Lemmons there love me some lemmings. Yes, And
I keep going back to the Paris scissors. There's never been a time where
I've used a mouse or I've been like this isn't workable. I need a
different tool, or I need to set it up different. It isn't like
a can opener or a Para scissors, or even like writing with a pencil
in grade school. Where you smear the ink. It's never been an issue
I and I, like I said, I was so so concerned. I'm
like, maybe it's my issue as a left handed person. I contacted my
left handed friends and they're all like that that is absurd. Why I think
I I mean, this is the same dude who's got a Boston Red Sox
tattoo and is a kiss fan. Like you know what I mean, like
maybe an intervention, I don't know. And then so yesterday he kept you'll
love this. So yesterday he kept like he would just pop over and say
stuff like, you know, back at the thirteen hundreds, the Catholic Church
should burn lefties. I'm not exaggerating, by the way. This is the
stuff he was coming over to me with. And then finally he walks over
and he says, you know, he was talking about how he went to
Catholic school and the nuns made him try to write with his right hand.
And I completely understand all of these things. And I've also experienced some things
like this this being said, with this specifick thing with the mouse having to
switch the buttons because you're quote left handed, I think he's doing it out
of spite to spite right handed people. And it was an attack I think
so, because it is years of pent up frustration. There's no mechanical reason
for it there. It isn't like a pair of scissors. I want to
know who. I want to know who at Lenovo or whatever, who makes
mice thought this was a feature we needed because he didn't. Obviously he didn't
like engineer the mouse. It came that way, so that's crazy. But
then he comes yeah, he comes over. He's like, yeah, so
we had one of the nuns to try to make me right with my right
hand, and I finally had had enough and I'm just like, yeah,
yeah, remember when they took the Native Americans hair, culture and language?
Tell me how they made you hold your pencil again? And then he just
goes damn. And then that was the end of the conversation yesterday. But
oh, anyway, I'm sorry. I got quickly constracted yesterday that I'm not
one to even engage and you know this, Yeah, yeah, I saw
the text, just like, I'm out of this conversation. But you did
though, you do see what But you engage, but you do so kind
of privately because it obviously costs you sleep. Do you know what I'm saying,
because I'm like, I don't understand why as a left handed person you
would need to do this like it. It's sort of like when you play
video games too, will you play Call of Duty? It's always made me
laugh as a left handed person where you can set up your controller for quote
left handed mode, where when you play Cold Duty, the trigger right if
you fire your gun in the game is the right trigger on the controller,
but you can switch it so it's the left one, all right. Why,
I don't know. I've seen I've seen, like with the Diablo game
on the computer thing they have like this this weird set up thing that you
can like autot of different games have And I'm probably not describing this correctly,
but it like changes a bunch of stuff and then you have to cross your
hands from using keyboard. And I'm just like, I don't I don't know
what that is, but I don't know, maybe that works for some people.
It was. It was just a rather interesting little little conversation anyway.
I just I had to bring it out because it's just one of the weirdest
things. And then I so in reality, he's kind of making you look
bad. Man, that's what I'm saying. He's throwing me into this madness
and this yeah. Yeah, Ross doesn't want I didn't want to argue about
this. He was talk about the crazy dude punching at the LGBT event.
Now, I will say because I've worked in JT studios in the past,
right I said, He's my first program director in Morehead City when I was
like super young, and I appreciate how his studio was set up for left
handed people. I will say this because the editing software we'd use for phones
was called what was Real Real to begin with, and then a box Pro.
Yeah, there's one sitting in here of ox Pro right now. Actually
it's on the right side of me. I actually managed for us to get
a vox Pro. I wanted so bad, Like I got a job offer,
yeah, and they were He was like, what are what are I
gonna do to keep you to stay here? And I was like, I
want to vox Pro and He's like done. I was going I want a
jingle package done. That was it. I was a masters you go for
the Mi Karta, you get the good one. But everything was on the
left hand side. And I did appreciate that that makes sense. Oh no,
the vox pros on the right here. Although it is movable, he's
got it wired so you can pick it up. It's on a base and
move it to either side. So koumba yan all that good stuff. All
right, there you go. Now you're up to speed on that. And
we trash talked the boss this morning. It's not even seven point thirty.
It's gonna be a good day. So I will get to the actual banker,
the evil banker just out randomly punching people who, if you really think
about it, is probably a dude you'd want to live next to. Yeah,
yeah, I said it. So we'll get into uh, all of
that coming up here in just a few minutes. Phone number eight eight eight
nine three four seven eight seven four hang on, Welcome back. It is
the Cacoday Radio program here at seven thirty five. Appreciate you joining us.
This stupid mouse, I swear man, you know what, you know what.
I'm just thinking about this. This will be the last left handed thing
for a moment. Ros. If this is what he want, I think
I should reverse the pedals on his car. Help the guy out right,
because that would that that would be an obvious thing that would be very helpful
if that's what we're gonna do, and I will I will agree not to
use the old intern hazing joke of sending them to engineering to retrieve a left
handed microphone. I will also avoid that. So see, I can change
I can change this guy up in New York, though I don't know about
all that, and I don't know that he should have to based on the
information that's out there. You have because look, if you have to come
up with a villain for you know, you're writing a Hollywood screenplay, rich
Manhattan investment banker is a pretty good villain, right. They don't care about
anything but money. They'll come in, they'll do a hostile takeover of a
business, they'll fire everybody. They're heartless. Oh, they're just awful people.
So it's pretty easy. When there's video of that dude punching some chick
who won't shut up that you know he's a monster, and it was in
an LGBT event in Brooklyn, in Park Slope. This guy's gotta go.
In fact, don't take my word for it. Take his neighbor who they
interviewed, who's got some stuff. She's got some thoughts, not at all,
like when we had, like I said, we have black parties,
was sitting outside, never says hid it aim being nothing And he's been here
a few years. Bad name. So when you've heard about it, I
believe it. But I heard about this. First of all, I worked
a parade with sir with the city Emergency Management, so we do security.
So I saw after it and I sent him to seventy Precinct Community Council.
I said, and they're like, we're looking into it. Never did I
think it would be my neighbor across the street. You're killing me, man,
wait till I tell me the video. I saw the video. It
was absolutely horrific, and I thought to myself, it's just like the random
people punching you know that we've heard about women, but no I can't.
And it was a hate killed, like a racist or something. I didn't
know what it came from, but I knew it came from a bad place.
And who is Never really think it's this guy across the street. But
he's the kind of guy. A black car picks him up at six am.
You don't see him. He doesn't talk to his neighbors, you know,
very just to himself. They also talked about how like his wife is
the same way and if they say hello to or she tends to ignore them
and just go in or out of their condo there that you know, it's
it's a nice building. He's probably what three four million dollar condo and and
so obviously he must be just a horrible person who wanted to punch somebody at
a pride parade. And that was the narrative that was out there and was
gladly New York Times carried that water. Everybody did. Well, that's not
what happened. According to the information we have now. What happened is the
dude comes out of his building is met with not just the Pride parade,
but also as they have infested everything else. You have the you know,
the the Yahamas group there, and they're literally they're also yelling at LGBT people
for not joining in their part of it. There'd being a general nuisance,
it sounded like. And this guy made a comment, and the comment he
made was one that you have thought of. By the way, four million
dollar condo, by the way, So the guy's doing okay, so it's
easy to demonize him. And he said, you guys are on the wrong
side. After getting literally in his face people demanding he, you know,
say genocide, say it, and he just looked at a bunch of a
bunch of protesters who simultaneously had the hamas scarf thing on and you know,
rainbow, all the rainbow stuff, and he said, you're on the wrong
side. That's not a new take, but it was enough to trigger the
protesters. According to even the statements from this woman who hates her neighbor,
he was covered in some sort of red liquid, little fake blood action.
According to the report, four people from the group who he had made the
comment to had been screaming at him, circled him physically keeping him from moving,
and then threw this liquid all over him. And as he's getting a
thrown one of them chest bumps, the dude who falls on the ground smashes
his knee and sliced his leg up. According to source, he stood up
and the closest of the four that had been circling him is this woman who's
still yelling, and he pops her and he hit her once and then used
that chaos to literally escape. The group. Did not throw any other punch,
did nothing, So I would ask you what the hell did this guy
do wrong? What did he What would your reaction be if somebody a group
of people surround you. All right, already, you're antenna's up. This
is not a good situation. Remember, we practice situational awareness here and you
should be aware that this is not a good situation. You're just trying to
go right. You don't want anything to do with it. Yeah, you
said you responded to something, but with words, and now they throw something
on it. You don't know if it's hydrochloric acid that's popular in the Middle
East, don't know if you've heard of that. If it's actual blood,
which is a huge hazardous issue. If one of these lunatics drew their own
blood to throw it on you. You throw blood or spit, you throw
a liquid like that on a police officer, See what charge you catch?
And how would you react? I think somebody get punched earlier. And I'm
not sitting here trying to sound like a bad ass. But if I don't
feel that I have egress and now you're throwing stuff on me, I'm going
to get physical with you immediately. This woman is calling him like a bad
neighbor. Yeah, it's a bad neighbor. He doesn't say hello, he
doesn't he keeps to himself. He sounds like a perfect neighbor to me.
I was just gonna say, Ross loves this guy perfect. Well, he
never will. He'll never talk to me. I won't even know he's there.
Sounds like he's a banker. He's very focused on his career and his
work. And six am, black car picks him up, takes him in.
He's probably there until late. Right he comes, he comes out of
his house, he sees his clown show outside this circus as side of the
street. He's like, well, you people, just shut up. I'm
trying to go to work. But I gotta live here, you know,
I don't Obviously, I would never want to live in New York City because
it sounds god awful. But even this small town wake forest, my small
street of mine. If I came out of my house, you know,
in the early morning hours to go to work, and I'm tired of I
focused. I got so much stuff to do during the day, and there's
all this stuff in from my house. I mean the same way too,
be like, go away, get off on my street, leave me alone,
and then you throw blood on the guy and then you surround him like
a crazy mob. What's he supposed to do? I'm surprised he didn't hit
more of you. The guy looks like he's fit too, obviously throw a
punt. And here's the thing. And I'm not I'm not encouraging people to
go out and hit somebody. But one of the things that people fail to
understand that can be a tactical advantage is in a situation, not everything's the
same. Don't take this Once you're in a position where you can use force,
don't use it sparingly. And that's not me telling you to go out
and mag dumb somebody. I'm talking about with your hands, right, because
the chances are these idiots who are screen at you and willing to throw blood
at you. Have you seen their stupid little training videos. If you come
out scary aggressive, it is so disarming to people you have. You have
flipped the script, right, not just I'm gonna shove you away, I'm
going to try to shoulder through there. You come out and and you know,
uh, millet. From a military standpoint, you talk to people who
operate in and in some of the Special Forces stuff, it is an overwhelming
show of force that they will utilize in situations because it's effing scary, and
that's what you want. You want them to rethink the whole thing that they're
doing right now. And if that's their friend getting butt over teakettle with you
one shotting them or doing something in that moment, they most of them will
not know how to react because they didn't expect it, because that doesn't happen
in Williamsburg. Because they're right and you're wrong, and they could do whatever
they want. And that is a moon. It is a moon, absolute
moon, bat Mecca. I've stayed there in a hotel across from Manhattan.
I don't know where you'd go. That would be the only thing concerning me.
And yet this guy is they're trying to make him the new hate filled.
He should be charged of the hate crime. He should have hit all
four of you. Sorry, and you're gonna be shocked to learn you're ready.
So what do you think? What do you think the woman who got
hit and her friends told the police Ross. Do you have that audio?
Do you dubbed that audio in? Oh? You didn't. Oh, that's
because they left, that's right, They not that they didn't just leave when
police tried to intervene, they de aret. They didn't have her under arrest,
but they were trying to find him. They literally blocked people from accessing
the person who had been assaulted so they could whisk her out of there.
Absolute lunacy. But that's the story. So when you hear it, understand
the rest of the details. All right, seven forty six race Stagic from
the Weather Channel. Try surrounding him. Good luck? Yeah, for yeah,
four hundred pound hippies. Oh you can't go anywhere. Yeah, yeah,
we'll see about that. And then they physically assault you. Not gonna
go. Well, you just survived all the sharks man, Yeah, they
just bought sharks. Yeah, so I did all around, all around?
Yeah yeah, yeah, and how do yeah? I mean is what it
is. But congrats to the wolf pack. Speaking of animals, right,
boy, they're hitting some missiles last night. Yeah, you're watching baseball.
But yeah, they'll go to a couple couple teams. Got a couple teams,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, quite a few. It's all acc sec
So we'll see how that goes. Virginia's in there, and Texas A and
M. That's right, Texas A and M is in the sec Now I
forget about that. But anyway, yeah, looking good. And as we
talked about yesterday, case and you reminded me, or actually told me,
I didn't forget because I never knew about the open start this week. The
warmer weather coming in just in time for Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
This is when we start seeing temperatures near or above ninety degrees hot.
This day looks like it's going to be Friday in and around the Triangle,
could get into the mid nineties, load of mid nineties for Saturday and Sunday
too. So the warm upcoming cloud sunshine today because we are seeing a little
cloud maybe a little fog this morning. Other than that, probably the best
day of the week, a low to mid eighties. Then we start sneaking
into the mid eighties tomorrow. Then we'll start the ninety plus run on Thursday.
It's probably gonna last to at least Monday. At this point when no
rain of any measurable amounts here in the forecast, not actually mentioned down in
South Florida, Central Florida, very heavy rainfall, and as of the eight
o'clock update from the Hurricane Center, what we're gonna pay attention to this maybe
for coastal areas as we get into next week, the southeast coast, there
is this area of rain and thunderstorms disorganized at this point, but as it
moves northeast and out over the Western Atlantic off the southeast coast, a very
small chance in seven days of it developing into something about twenty percent. So
we keep it eye on that for interest in the water. But right now,
doesn't thinking much about what's our first name? Do you? What do
you know at the top of your head? Alberto? Okay, all right,
yeah, well we'll wait and see and we will chat in an hour,
sir, thank you. Okay, yep, all right, there you
go, Race AJ from the Weather Channel. Now we mentioned the open.
You guys want to go anybody want to go to the open and we'll you
know, we'll take care of your food and drinks and we'll keep you cool
and shade it. I think that maybe we could hook something up. In
fact, stick around here in just a few minutes. I'll fill you in
on the details here on the CaCO Day Radio program seven fifty five here on
the CaCO Day Radio program. So we're not doing this right now. Okay,
put your listening. Ears on, we're not doing this right now,
so we will do this, uh what eight o'clock tomorrow, so twenty four
hours from now, No, not tomorrow, Thursday. What am I?
What do they want me to give this away? Hang on? It is
Thursday, right, So we'll be doing this forty eight hours from now.
So on Thursday at eight oh five, you'll want to be listencuz we're gonna
give away some some a couple passes for the US Open, but not just
hey, you can get into the gate. We're gonna we have some passes.
I was informed yesterday for what's called the Carolina Club Experience. So you
don't get parking with it, but you know, but there's lots of different
options all that good stuff. So you're on your own for that. That
being said, once you get to Pinehurst, Numero dose and you're gonna go
watch all the action and you know you want to be comfortable. They got
you covered, so basically you get it's on the sixteenth tea box, which
is great. That is a great place to watch from. That is an
absolute soul crushing hole there and it's so yes, do that and then so
you'll have a climate control facility. It's a big watch box. They got
food and drinks. They got televisions up in there, so even though you're
watching what's going on, you're paying attention to everything else that's going on.
They have private restrooms which are really nice. I'm telling you, if you
ever want to see what really good outhouses look like, go to a golf
tournament. Man. I know it's a little thing and it's weird, but
it's very but yes, you want these. So we have a pair and
that will be for Saturday. So also great time to go. Cut's been
made and now we're into the weekend. So on Thursday we'll do at eight
oh five, we'll do a call in. I'll tell you at the time
how it's gonna work, and you can maybe hook up with a couple of
these premium passes. You want to hear it absolutely bat crap, crazy drug
story of a man who took it too far in the woods. A man
is warning people not to chase rainbows or eternal life after he was persuaded by
a crooked psychic named Steve to do some quote pretty outlandish things. It what
why are you laughing? Have you had have you run into Steve? Before,
what did he try to tell you to do? Okay? In a
quest, the man says to quote live Forever, the quotes I'm about to
read you are insane. This is from the man. In hindsight, I
can see where I was blindsided by ambition and immortality to really question what was
going on at the time that according to Oh I love the dude's name,
the guy's name is Johnny Turnup, who is a semi professional long distance runner
and coach. Quote. But when you're lost in a forest and your mind
is fried from sleep deprivation and acid, it's easy to think hunting pigs while
naked is normal. I feel like I should read that line again. When
you're lost in a forest and your mind is fried from sleep deprivation and acid,
it's easy to think hunting pigs naked is normal. We've all been there,
right, Not judging this guy. Looking back, I can see I
was hoodwinked by psychic Steve. And while I feel his intentions were good,
I think he had been mixed up with necromancy for so long and spent so
much time in the company of cult leaders he didn't know the difference between reality
and fantasy. Well, that's I mean, that is something we have all
jokes aside experience. I can tell you when I was working with Papashango,
who is my personal shaman, I had the same issue. But once he
got into the necromancy, I can No, you can't bring the dead back.
I mean that you're you're asking for problems there, You're asking for trouble.
So I was like, Papashanka, are separate ways? I mean traditionally,
didn't you guys bury your cat in that cemetery up in Maine? Isn't
that exact? And then it came back. What's the problem. You sound
like a quitter, sir. What began is an innocent, illegal boar hunt.
What is this a real story? Yes? Yes, hold on,
that sounds like it sounds too good to be true. It's like that story
but the woman who buys the golden tickets to have and that's like you know,
satire sites, and it's not real. It's just really well written.
No, they have links in the story to the actual police report and everything.
All right, So what began is an innocent wild boar hunt became more
complicated for turn Up and friends when they're uh, some sort of something that
they were given by Steve, was spiked with acid. Steve, who also
had a spirit friend who was five hundred years old, had apparently instructed Steve
on what to tell them. He was attempting to mold their minds with the
LSD. Apparently, if you think you can live longer and healthier, you're
fine. The problem was the boar hunt quickly spun out of control as the
turnip said that he had been convinced that the pig they were after was actually
a magic pig or something. But basically police found the dude running around the
woods naked, tripping on LSD, saying that he was hunting an eternal life
pig, and they have issues with that, not the least of which is
apparently it's not hunting eternal life pig hunting season or something? Was he was
he hunting the eternal life pig with? Was it? Las? We're getting
there once we had discarded our clothes. It was a bit embarrassing because we
didn't know where to look. But then Paul, one of the other guys,
picked up his shotgun and screamed, he who dares And at that point
it was time for the hunt to commence, and then they you know,
they get in there, they're doing some hunting. It's nighttime. One of
them does have a gun, but apparently then they got a stick, and
the whole thing is crazy. But also this is the dude trying to remember
a lot of it. So any anyway, don't don't do that. I
know you wouldn't because you're a professional and incredibly responsible. But have you ever
known, ever in your lifetime, in these forty plus years on this planet,
someone who has experienced or experimented with a hallucinogenic drugs like LSD or mushrooms?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know like that I've
heard. Anyway, you could You could be sitting in your living room by
yourself and be terrified of your walls that are suddenly breathing on top of you
and and talking to you. And oh my god, I'm the Beatles and
I just played chess with God. These are things that could happen. Let
alone be in the woods naked with your boys a magic. It gives eternal
life. Can you imagine if all you had to do to live forever was
eat bacon? I'd beat But we don't live forever except vegans. It's just
wild. Everything's just people are absolutely out of their mind. Man. I
like how he's still kind of open to the possibility because they didn't get the
pig. Man, there's nothing but craziness. There's always next time, you
know. Well, yeah, I guess they killed a rabbit, though I
don't know if you get anything off the rabbit, which is one of the
charges here. I needed that this morning just to feel so normal. So
thank you, thank you very much for that, sir, appreciate it.
You probably don't want to hear turn up truck jokes, so we'll not do
that, all right. I gotta I gotta do a poll of the audience
to see if you're okay with something so much like the NFL. Major League
Baseball's deciding, hey, we're gonna do a bunch of these European games,
and also down in Latin America. I think they're doing Mexico City Series.
I think the Twins actually are tied up in one of them. I I
don't know how everyone feels about it. I know if I know the players
aren't necessarily big fans in the NFL, it because you gotta go and and
you know, you gotta even if you have like if it's a butt a
bye week. It's still there is there is a downside ross by the way,
Ross thinks that he was Apps and he kind of was. Mathematically the
Bills got screwed on this last year. But now I'm completely against them going
over and like, oh, we gotta spread the games, you know,
spread the word of the game over in Europe. I hate the European Games.
I hate them as somebody always ends up getting injured either on the on
the field over there or when they come back, because it completely messes with
you with the jet lag. You know, if you're like a West Coast
team where gets awful, man, it puts you like two weeks behind.
I hate I. Well, look I've traveled. I've traveled Europe, I've
traveled to Asia, Asia and Australia. You want to really kill yourself on
the hour change. If you can avoid light and alcohol, you like,
most of it will fix itself. If you get hammered on the plane,
or if if you start you know, looking at dusk and dawn and and
and like calibrating your calendar to it, it can screw you up. But
I every time I've been over to Europe, I've been fine, like almost
amazing. I think the issue with the Bills last year was I think they
got in on like I can't remember, it was like a Thursday or Friday,
and there was a six hour time difference, and then if they've been
playing over in Germany, there's like what goes up to eight or whatever,
and then they'd be on the field on Sunday and it was an early morning
game. It was like super early. And then I think they had a
there was something stupid, like they had like a Thursday game once they got
back, so they had like three or four days to rest. Yes,
you guys, mathematically they had a problem there, so and you lost that
game, right, Yeah. The Dolphins no something no to Jacksonville because they
were actually they were over there for three weeks or something. Yeah, that's
right. Yeah, they did backed the back. They were completely adjusted because
they had played over there the week before. Okay, I remember there was
something that sounded super sketch with the schedule when you were explaining it, because
it was more than just whining about it. It was like, yeah,
that is kind of messed up, but now Baseball's doing it. In fact,
the Mets series is going on over there and they have like the British,
Like a British soccer guy who works for TNT now who's doing baseball play
by play Over the last few years, they kind of rolled them over and
I don't know, man, it just does it hit the ear right to
hear a British dude doing baseball play by play. I think, like I
said, I'm against them playing. I don't like the games overseas. However,
I think a lot of these English broadcasters are just professional as all hell,
and I think it sounds amazing. I like listening to the play by
play. I remember there was one There was one game like years back now.
It was when in Duhar I think it was in Duharr when he was
on the Yankees and he hit a home run and think it that's who it
was. And I remember to this day, I still remember that call.
The the play by play guy was like absolute bucks office and it was amazing.
It was such a great play. They have some phrases and delivery styles,
but also I don't want them getting any of their British on stuff,
do you know what I mean? Like like we just all had to learn
about cricket the other day, right, and that's fine. That's that that's
your sport that we didn't know anything about, and then we beat you by
five ups or something, which is apparently a big deal. I don't even
know what the phrase is, but I know the other phrases are googly and
you guys sit around and eat cucumber sandwiches? What? What is? What?
What sport? Where you would you eat cucumber sandwiches? What's if I
tell you a sport? I hear what you're saying, but I'm still actually
hear the audio. I like it sounds good, but maybe it's just the
guy doing the play by play. But I have a feeling like, because
here's I have a feeling that the guy doing the play by play could It's
sort of like Morgan Freeman could could narrate anything and make it sound interesting,
Like I'd want him following me saying what I'm doing, and I think it
would find it entertaining. He's that it's a sandwich with the crust cut off,
like a picky toddler and cucumbers. Growing up poor in New York,
we had cucumber sandwiches with we would we would put the cucumber on the white
bread. And I don't think we would put anything on it. That was
the thing we ate as a poor family in New York. So I mean
tomatoes and mayo, butter, butter. We put butter on it. It
was good. Butter tomatoes and mayo. Tomatoes and mayo is the least meaty
sandwich that is still delicious. And that's because you put a leader. I'll
even put it in. I'll put it even. I'll put it in cucumber
sandwich for you guys. You put a leader of Duke's Mayo on it with
some l like heirloom tomatoes, and that is fine dining. Well. I
will also say that cucumber sandwich is one of my cucumber tomato sandwich is one
of my top three foods ever. Great. It's so good and slatter than
mayo though, right, yep, yeah, absolutely so you're getting your fat.
Don't worry, all right. So here is the uh what's this guy's
name, Darren Fletcher, and what he's calling is the end of the Mets
six' five win. They turned a double play on the Phillies to go
ahead and win one of the second game of the series. But it doesn't
matter anyway, So double play to end the game. Here is the final
call from Darren Fletcher. Tell me, tell me how you feel about this?
Smith agates, Castillanos wants to take his time, and who could blame
it in the circumstances. He must be feeling so much pressure out there.
Not the close off. I already stretching the imagination. That's Edwin Dias.
It's a closer by commit. See he's the man today with the pressure on
his shoulders and Castiano's bat explodes. Are they going to get the river at
hope? They gotta do? The couple pay to win the game. What
an end? The shots at bet, the run arounds at home, plaints
and the doll fighted into mcclub at the first Basement, Kate's alongso and the
New yorl nights. Somehow we've stunned the Phillies, honey, and they win
Game two in London, six five seventeen hits. What trauma? What a
game? What a finish? That's incredible. The run around the base,
what is that? The run around at the base? Dop. That is
a regular season game against the Phillies and the Mets. And he made it
sound bigger than the World Series. That was that guy's a professional. That
was great. I will take that any John Kruck, who doesn't even turn
his mic off to fart. Gimme John Cruck if the new Phillies playback,
will take that any day over Michael Kay and the Yankees. I'm over Michael
Kay. I really oh wow, Oh no, Britude, it's the same
call every time. Say it's the same. Climb over it. I wouldn't.
I think would be amazing to Betty's retired is if you were to combine
that dude, put him in the same booth that dude and John Sterling,
it'd be well through the modern science, you know, methods and stuff,
and just the comparison of the two. I just it sounds so soccery,
and I think that's what it is. It's just anytime I hear a voice
like that, it's either soccer, rugby. Right. I'm trying to think
of things where I've actually paid attention, and you just do you hear that
voice and you assume the sport, right, That's all. I don't know.
Man. I heard that and that sounded like the greatest game ever.
And it was just a mid season game against the Phillies Meds in London.
Then maybe they shouldn't have blown a thirteen colony lead and they could be calling
all this stuff America. Yeah. I don't know, I'm torn on it.
Whatever, he does have a lot of energy, I will give you
that, but uh, just what do you have sunflower seeds chewing tobacco?
What is It's a cucumber sandwich at the turn? It's not called the turn
shirts the seventh inning stretch. Think about it. We'll be back. It's
going to be an interesting general election and it is becoming clear the national media
is here for the heavy lift, and that is the destruction of Mark Robinson,
not just at the local level, not just a wral drawing political cartoons
where he's a clan member, which I guess if you're new to the area,
is a thing that happened. They drew a cartoon depicting the black lieutenant
governor, the first black lieutenant governor. I might add, I know they
normally like stuff like that in the progressive media. It's the first this.
Oh we just here, we have two NBA coaches, both black, and
let's ask about that at the finals that we played that audio yesterday for you
that day, it didn't like any of that, so they drew him as
a clan member, and that's at the local level. But what is now
happening. I went to Drudge yesterday, which I almost never do to pull
stories, but I do it because everything is so different there, and I
don't know if that's Dudge it is man. They hate, hate Donald Trump
and apparently hate Mark Robinson. It's wild. It's wild, and there's multiple
stories, don't I don't go to Drudge the same way I used to go
to a Drudge where it was a useful you know, a conglomeration of a
lot of the different sites where a lot of our stories might come from Daily
Caller and you know, normal associated press stuff, and where you know,
you just have this collective because it made it easy to peel the onion on
stuff. You know, if the main story is this, there's usually a
bunch of sub stories and a few of them are going to be useful.
Not now, not if you go there. Now it's I don't know if
Trump broke him over there or if it was you know, a lot of
people speculated was sold and some Moonbat's been doing it and Matt's on an NDA,
but also he's been a back and forth, dude. So I don't
know. I just know what is printed there and what is linked there,
and it tells a story. Right, if you put five links about a
larger topic, it becomes pretty easy to kind of figure out your take on
it, as weird as that sounds. And they had a bunch of Mark
Robinson his horrible stuff on there. In fact, let me let me go
there right now. And I just read you some of the some of the
headlines here. I was surprised because obviously this is a state governor's race,
all right, So if you go to Drudge right now, because I now
you all don't have to, can I'm gonna do it for you. Don't
give them the clicks if you don't want to. Alito caught on secret recording,
no compromising blah blah blah. McCrone. This, let's see here,
Trump suffers quadruple polling blow. Apparently everything's falling apart. Guy's gonna lose.
They got Rachel Maddow quote here, she like AOC. Rachel Maddow and AOC
over the last two days are both on record as saying that if Trump wins,
they're gonna put them in jail, which now I understand why people commit
voting fraud and vote one hundred times. I'm kidding. But also, Donald
Trump isn't going to put Rachel Maddow and Aos Oh my god, could you
believe if you put them in the same cell. Can you imagine having to
be in the next cell over doing you know, doing a dime for something
because I don't know, you drove across a mural in the street or whatever,
and you have to listen to those two. That's where you're like,
hey, can I be I can I go to death row? Can you
put me over there? You couldn't buy enough stuff from Red to shut him
up? Sorry, And then directly under it main page photo, here we
go, big picture of Mark Robinson standing there is looking scowling at something.
I don't know what it is, probably Greens City Council members, something kind
of famous for that. Republican gov nominee entertained conspiracy theories that the US government
was behind the attack on Pearl Harbor the death of General Patton. By the
way, the Pearl Harbor thing is a conspiracy, but there are a lot
of folks who misconstrue what the conspiracy is. The conspiracy is not that a
bunch of US Air Force or wasn't the Air Force at that point, but
whatever. But basically, a bunch of US military members bombed Pearl Harbor and
some they got a hold of some zeros or whatever and buzzed it and did
it. That's not the conspiracy. The conspiracy is that most of America did
not have an appetite for war. They had just come off World War One
or you know, which should have been a tip off that it was called
World War One, but I digress. That's a joke, by the way.
But they just come off the Great War. They don't want anything to
do with this, but some people did. FDR is definitely one of them,
if you want to get on the record with this stuff. And so
that there was a threat that this could happen, and some people took a
weight and see approached because they went, ah, you know, if this
does happen, then you know people will agree with what I want to do.
That's the conspiracy theory. Does that sound like it's outside the realm of
possibilities. Remember it was just a few years before that that the government was
poisoning liquor to kill people. I want to repeat this. It was within
what ten years, maybe just a little more, where the government was poisoning
random liquor so that people would stop violating prohibition. Can you imagine that story
breaking right now, right where they're just say, ah, we're having a
we're having too many there's too much alcoholism out there, so we're gonna randomly
poison every hundred bottle of Crown Royal or whatever it is. So I understand
that people might speculate on stuff like that, and frankly, you could make
a pretty convincing argument that even if it's subconsciously that people weren't doing everything that
maybe they should be doing. So that's where they're going to go and get
in there. And then it links over to a story from the New York
magazine Bark Robinson is Mega's great Black hope, and they give a recitation of
his Greensboro City Council speech, very you know, very flowery wording, and
that bart's well written. I think it's a fair assessment. But then immediately
they bring in an activist, a progressive activist, and some professors and it's,
by the way, it's the same professors that are always in the WRAL
articles. They seem to be kind of the go to if you want to
write a hit piece. He called joy Behar a she beast, referred to
Maxine Waters as old maxipad. You called him a clan member. I understand
it's all childish, but now and again, it's fine to analyze and look
at what he wrote and what he posted, and he should be asked about
it and the abortion thing, and we've asked him about it here on the
show. You are very opposed to this, yet you availed yourself of that
service in your younger years. And his answer, whether you like it or
not, was at the time, we thought that this was the right thing
to do, and through growth and spirituality and everything, we've come to the
conclusion that we were wrong, and we don't want others to make that mistake.
And you can think he's lying, you could think he's telling the truth
whatever, But what this entire article leads to is he's an idiot, he's
a moron. He's dumb. That's an actual quote. He's dumb. Where
is the where is the the one line here? Well, you get the
gist of it. And this woman's like, yeah, I tried to talk
to about this particular issue and then I realized he's a moron and he's too
dumb to get any of it. Well, how's he supposed to defend himself
against that? They keep trying to focus too in the article and like,
oh, well he you know, before doing this and being in front of
the Green Disversity Council whatever he was, he was working upholstery. They keep
focusing. Yeah, he kept They kept put and they kept in a derogatory
manner, say he's a reupholster, roll and I will I will take somebody
who does that, or a plumber, or a contractor, or an electrician
or a mechanic, I will take one. I will take one of those
over a thousand politicians any day. Yeah, who have never actually done or
or created or made anything of value. I'm sitting I'm sitting in downtown high
Point right now. I could throw a rock at probably one hundred people who
have spent the majority of their life in some capacity doing exact actly the kind
of jobs that Mark Robinson was doing. They're not illustrious, right, They're
not why the city of high Point was the show place, right. These
were the behind the scenes. These were the workers who actually made it happen.
And then had to watch all the rich buyers and everything come in here
and then the politicians give them keys to the city and crap. And I'm
on team Ross here. I'd rather walk across the street or go over to
the Irish bar they have over here where all the regular folks are hanging out.
And those those are the people that I would want to spend my time
with. And does that mean those are people that also can understand and relate
to the to the average person, because that's who they were, right,
They were just contributed. They said the job they were doing it, they
did a great job, they owned a business, whatever. I trust that
person to understand what I am going through. And I'll say this both the
politicians and the imposter. Some of them are dumb. Some people are not
traditionally intellectual. Some people are much more street smart then you're giving him credit
for. But the reality is to make that a derogatory thing is a grave
miscalculation and one that continually gets made that I don't understand anyway, Race Agic
Weather Channel. Sorry hitting him late, but he's got you know, basic
call me news for the most part, So uh, fire away, sir,
what do you got what? Oh? Oh, what is happening,
all right, all right, I don't know what's going on, all right,
so let me just do this. It's nice right now and probably still
be nice so though it get a little warmer by the weekend. Okay,
all right, there you go. Ray, are you there now? I
don't know what's going on? Hey, can you not hear Casey? He's
there, he can't hear us. All right, we're out. So there
you go. There's your weather, brought to you by Me and Ross and
a mixed minus. That ain't right. We'll be back with Jeff Bellinger.
Hang on, good morning. Case America's largest pharmacy, CVS, has its
store branded drugs recalled that a rate twice as it's as much as its competitors
Walgreen and three times more than Walmart. That's according to a Bloomberg analysis of
public records. Now. Some of the recalls Casey were due to contaminated water
being used to make pain and fever medications for kids, nasal sprays for babies
being made using the same machines used to produce pesticides, as well as kids
drugs being made too potent. CVS says they offer more than two thousand store
brand health and wellness products. The United Auto Workers federal corruption watchdog is investigating
union president Sean Faine for allegedly retaliating against other union officers. It's a thirty
six page report. Part of it claims that the union has stonewalled and not
cooperated in federal efforts to keep the union corruption free. The report also says
that Fine retaliated against the two officers for not approving expenditures that he sought on
official a strip of some of his duties overseeing the union's relationship with Stilantis.
An FDA advisory panel approving Eli Lilly's treatment for Alzheimer's disease. The advisors agreed
that the pharmaceutical giants new drug helps patients in the early stages of Alzheimer's and
that the benefits do outweigh the risks. The FDA is expected to make a
final decision on the drug by the end of the year. And finally,
Casey, let's look at the futures of the markets. Opening in about thirty
four minutes. Not good, A lot of red. The Dow is down
a third to one percent. Both the NASAC and the S and P are
both down around a quarter of one percent using a machine to make pesticides and
then baby medicine. Did I hear that correctly? Yeah? Probably not the
smartest thing they could do. That's the understatement of the day. All right,
Dan, thank you so much. I appreciate it. Thanks guying.
Oh my, yeah, Dan schwartzmen there, Bloomberg News. How does that
happen? How would that like? Think about that in your setting. Let's
say you're having to mix up some out know, some rat poison and you're
you know, like, you know what you know? It makes this a
lot easier to mix a sippy cup, throw the point and then you know,
don't worry, we'll hose it out and then you know, the kid
can have a sippy cup. That is wild. How anyone goes, Yeah,
no, that sounds like a good idea. Go ahead and do that,
man. But there's a lot of dumb people and much of the dismay
of New York Magazine. It's not just Mark Robinson. So you can sit
there and savage him in your stupid little news story here. I mean,
just all you gotta do is listen to analysis from like NBC News over Israel's
rescuing those hostages or excuse me. The hostage is being released, which is
how they worded it. Listen to Gabe Gutierrez. How this is somehow a
bad thing. Administration confirmed the US did not participate in militarily in the rescue
operation, but was provided intelligence and support of it, according to a US
official with knowledge of the matter. Still, there are concerns that Saturday's rescue
may hurt efforts to reach a ceasefire and free the remaining hostages, including the
eight Americans, three of which are believed to have been killed. Secretary of
State Anthony Blinken is in the region today to try and secure a deal,
but the rescue will likely make his efforts even more difficult, and that's why
the administration may negotiate directly with Hamas to release the remaining American hostile undermine Israel,
but the current proposal fails, according to US officials, they say this
latest rescue only strengthened Netanyahu's determination to keep pushing for military operations in Gaza instead
of pursuing a ceasefire. Yeah, so this is a bad thing. I
don't know if you know that, the rescue and the hostages, because then
it may make it harder to and to some extent, I understand why Hamas
would be cheesed over this. But one of the ways you could handle this
is, if you kill an American hostage glass I'm going to repeat that,
if you kill the eight American hostages, you live, it's all turned to
glass. Now maybe it's not as specific as that, but you don't get
to take and kill American hostages.
