So they're not. They're not going to make you do a road test,
aren't they. I was just thinking of that. So you don't have to
do a road test now. I haven't had to do the the in person
renewal yet. In North Carolina, ross has to be mine has done.
Next week you have to do a vision test and a knowledge test. Oh
thank god. So not but Jeff into the written test, which makes no
sense because I've had a license here for like sixteen years or whatever it is,
since two thousand and six. Yeah, when I when I moved to
Minnesota, they make you do the road test again, even though obviously I
was well passed. You know, sixteen I was in my twenties and I
had to do the road test and the dude said, because I did the
parallel park, no problem, but he got upset that I wasn't centered in
the space very much. And I'm like, the reason I'm not is you
picked a spot where the dude in front of me is he's having to be
back because the car in front of him already. You know, you know
how one car can throw all that off. So I'm like, I'm not
gonna center. I'm gonna pull to the back because when that dude backs out,
he's not gonna have enough room and I don't want to get hit.
So I'm like, I'm adapting to what's going on. He's like, well,
obviously we're not gonna be here for that. I just want to And
I'm like, well, you just like, this isn't my first rodeo.
It's muscle memory. That's how I would park in this scenario. And but
he gave me my license, so whatever. I can understand, like doing
the vision test again, right, because you're getting older. But it's weird
for me that you have to do the knowledge tests, like because I had
to print out my driver's record for as like a form of idea to bring
there, because yeah, it's super complicated with that as well. And it's
like so I just I'm trying to print it out here and all the printers
are messed up because of course. Well yeah, and you look at the
driver's whorecord. You're like, well, Ross, how many tickets have you
had since two thousand and six And the answer would be zero, right,
I had one ticket back in nineteen ninety nine before I moved to Omaha.
Ended up moving back here in two thousand and six. I think like,
if you have a driver's record with no tickets or nothing, it should be
like vision tests, Boom, you're good, You're good to go. You
should should give you a little trophy and just be like, don't even bother
coming in that pretty much that's what I think. Yeah, or like a
parade would be nice. Hold on, because the first time you renew you
can do it online. This is like a button click and boom, they
send you the license. Then like the next eight years or whatever the time
is, then you have to go in and do it again. So mine
because I did the online last time, so to be twenty twenty six,
so I don't have to deal with this for a little while. So kind
of feeling good about that. But that sucks, and uh, I'm sure
they'll probably have more interesting things by the time that rolls around to deal with.
Oh do you have the real ID? That's the thing, that's why
they're probably doing the paperwork. Do you have the one with the star on
it? I have the one they mailed to me whenever I renewed it.
So okay, that's what this is about. The real ID, which I'm
pretty sure was like supposed to be implemented like five years ago, but nobody
gives a crap, so they keep pushing it off. That's probably why you're
going to have all that stuff. I think you have a passport or not?
No, I wouldn't. Who am I asking? Geez? I was
gonna say, if you have one and it's the real one, I would
think that that would be adequate. But all right, well, good luck.
We got stuff to get to here. Obviously over the next three hours.
Also, Pete Calendar will join us up at eight to five. Pete
spends in an ordin an ordinate amount of time on Twitter, going back and
forth with people, and like yesterday he was arguing with a cartoon frog and
some beans. I just I just happened to go through and it shows up
in the timeline. I'm like, what is going on? So I'm gonna
ask him about that, But God bless him, because I want to just
post whatever I'm gonna post and roll right out of there. But that's the
algorithm. Now. I've seen two or three different people who are who are
getting a lot of visibility, and they say, if you make a post,
what you want to do is you want to respond at least two or
three times and all of a sudden it massively boost your thing. But but
you also have to have the blue check. Those two things will get you
a lot more frequency in people's timelines. So if you're that sort of person
who likes that you paid for the premium, answer a couple of people and
it'll work. Apparently, I don't know, all right, six twelve,
let me get let me do this just because I want to give you a
straight rundown and then just roll into this. We got meat stuff we got
veto override. Get into with that with Pete a little later, more Hawaii
insanity, and I can't. I mean, I understand I was going to
say something and it's sarcastic. Good. I could tweak one little thing in
here and the media would be having a feeding frenzy right now, and they've
chosen not to. Shockingly, obviously, you're dealing with politicians who are of
the appropriate party. But still, man, I'll give you a scenario where
if you tweaked one thing in here, they'd be losing their damn minds.
And we have examples of it. So all that and more coming up.
Six thirteen. Hang on, Thank you, JC is w PTI in the
triad and one six one FM talk in the triangle. So now I'm more
confused than anything. I don't I don't know what's going you know what this
all feels like. It feels like justifying staffing. Let it does. So
Rich called in and he renewed it the same exact boat as I am in
Johnston County. And all I needed, which makes sense, is this is
how it should be. Is your driver's license and take a vision test,
because which makes sense. So I go back onto the site and I realize
that the one link doesn't bring you to the correct page. It just brings
you to driver's license test, not renewal tests. And at the very bottom
of first one. Yeah, and at the very bottom of the original one.
You only need the IDs if you're replacing a stolen or lost ID,
which makes sense. But it's at the bottom. It's just it's the way
it's all clumped. Yeah. Stuff, it's the way all the lengths and
stuff are clumped together. Like. It doesn't make anything, it doesn't issue,
it's not directly what I'm looking for. It's all just like a big
mess. I know you're shocked. I am, I am app you could
knock me over with it. I'm just glad I'm seated and literally tethered to
the chair of this. You should have been prone, but that makes sense.
So if you're renewing the second time, if you've already done the online,
all you need is your driver's license, which makes sense, and take
a vision test because it makes sense. So that's fine. Now you know
what's gonna happen, right, I'm gonna go down there and I'm gonna have
knowing this, and then they're gonna be like, ooh, we need every
document you've ever had since you've been bored, and I'll be like, I
don't have that, and they'll be like, well you don't get your licens
today, move along, soun we got your driving record with nothing on it.
So if every prints out here, well I would still make a point
to, you know, give it to them. And then if they get
irritated and be like, let me tell you a story and they're not gonna
care. But I don't know, maybe it makes you feel better. Uh,
all right, I was stressing and I was like three years out,
So how bad is that? Yes, it's I did internalize it. It's
a little selfish, but I'm just like, maybe I'll just not drive ever
again in starting in twenty twenty six. Well, they don't want us to,
right, we're gonna we're gonna have nothing and we're gonna like it.
And then the only cars on the road will be robots to drive us and
uh and the elites, the elites will have cards but who the hell knows?
Man? All right, well, you know, bring it all with
you though, just you know the drill if you like, if you brought
everything, they'd be like, no, you don't need any of this,
right, and then if you don't, you know the drill, So all
right, Uh Now, I'm just really irritated with that. We should just
do like horrible DM these stories and I already printed out are you paid the
fifteen dollars this morning for my driver's record which I thought, after reading the
website I needed to bring to prove my ID. Maybe that's the test,
right, like the phishing stuff that our corporate security people do, right,
they just wanted to see read it all before you kicked into action. Unfortunately,
it doesn't feel that. I feel like you you failed now, but
you're on the app and you print out your driver's record and they're like here
it is in PDF form. You better save it because once you close out
of this window, you can't get it back again. You have to pay
fifteen dollars for us to regenerate the report, dude speaking, you know.
And there's a lot of different government site not just in the US that handles
it. So you literally when I entered Columbia and Ecuador on my vacation,
you have to go on this website and fill out basically a digital version of
the thing you used to have to write when you would go international. And
if it closes at any point, it starts over, but it starts over
where you have to then file a supplemental one because the other one's half in
the system. And I don't know if you know this. The government websites
in Columbia saw all right, awful, terrible. It closed the window twice,
so I had to then do a little supplement. I can't remember what
the thing's called. It was so annoying, and it was it was free,
so there was that, but it turned into a giant nightmare. And
when you're approaching because I'm doing it, I'm doing it literally in the airport,
when I'm in the line right, because I had no idea, and
I'm in the line and it took about an hour to get customs, and
I was probably five minutes or not Customs, but immigration. I was five
minutes from getting to that dude. And I saw somebody in front of me
who didn't have it done, and he was super angry. And there's dudes
with like guns everywhere, because you know, it is what it is.
And I'm like, oh, dear God, do not let me get up
to the window and not have this done. I do not want to go
to a Columbian prison. But then I had to show him on the phone
all of the documents, so the one that was completed and then the supplemental
of the other two, and he didn't even look at it. Couldn't have
cared less man. So I'm like, ah, this is gonna be horrible.
And the guys just waved it off let me in. So anyway,
all right, well good luck on that. Let me let me hit on
a couple other things here, alrighty, Sorry, I got like just like
brain fog this morning. Although ross is troubles are slowly bringing me around,
because then I started like internalizing and stressing over three years down the road.
All right, here we go. Word is acting all well word ish today.
So I you know, when we when we were going through all of
the details, and then of course all of the conspiracy theories, you know,
everything from space lasers to land grabs to books that were written by AI
but people think we're written first because it was planned. We're going over all
of that, and then we you know, get into the various government officials.
I left somebody out. I told you about the emergency management guy,
former chief of staff for the former mayor, had no experience. Obviously obviously
it showed with some decisions that were made. You have the chief of police,
who is the former strip commander for the Las Vegas Police, except he
left because he was the guy in command when the mass shooting took place.
And now you have this guy, this is what is his name, Khalio
Manuel. So he's deputy director of the Hawaii Commission on Water Resource. One
of the complaints that people have talked about is they limited water. They didn't
just turn it off, that was something that they did, but they also
limited water prior to remember, this took place over three days and then after
and so they're asking this guy what's up with that? And listening to him
explain his philosophy, which is not at all what was asked, is infuriating.
All right, So here is how he decides who gets water. You're
ready, all right? I hope you're sitting down. One. Water is
like taking it and looking at it from a holistic system perspective. And that's
not any different than how Hawaiians traditionally managed water. You know, in essence,
we treated at a native Hawaiians treated water is one of the earthly manifestations
of a god in a qua kane. And so that reverence for a resource
and that reciprocity in relationship was something that was really really important to our worldview
and and well being. Right, and and let me say this, if
if that's where you stop, fie got it? You're surrounded by water.
From a freshwater resource management standpoint, obviously, there's probably a lot of you
know, intricate things that go on there. I'm not sure. I mean,
they get they get a decent amount of rainfall, I'm not sure,
even though they have been in a drought how it normally is in Hawaii.
But the one time I was there, I was so young, I don't
I don't know, but I'm assuming it's not that big of an issue living
in an island and isolated from other you know, civilizations. And so I
think where it's shifted to today or over time is that we've become used to
looking at waters like something which we use and not necessarily something that we revere
as that thing that gives us life. Right, I mean to me,
it's a shift in value set, and you know, if we can start
to really look at how we as humans in an island can reconnect to that
traditional value set. So really my model is always like, let water connect
us and not divide us, like we can share it, but it requires
true conversation about equity. Okay, one somebody just had their house burned down
and didn't have access to water, doesn't give two flips about your equity.
And also the religious side, faith based water manager. Now, the media
is not freaking output when I when we get back, I'll explain why they
would in another scenario. Keeping you connected. This is ninety four five WPTI
in the Triad and one oh six one FM talk in the Triangle. All
right, somebody sent this email and it let me clarify this for you because
it is. It's a good question, and I took it for granted.
I realized I didn't mention it. So if they shut the water off and
people couldn't get water, then why how were they denying them? More so
than just shutting it off, they didn't just shut water off, they also
waited a very long time. And so people were wanting to access water that's
in these canals and streams in Hawaii. But you need permission even if the
damn things in your backyard, and the state wouldn't give permission to let firefighters
use it in some instances. So, and the guy who we just played
is the dude who's literally the planning guy on this who's talking about how it's
it's a religious thing. It's absolutely bonkers and nobody's losing their mind. But
let me, let me give you a scenario where they would let's say that
there was some person who worked here in the United States or here in the
state I should say, because Hawaii is worked in you know, water management,
and they told reporters after an incident where obviously everyone's upset that really the
way that they choose to allocate water in part is based on their religious beliefs.
And let's say that they were a Christian and I don't know what this
guy is, but he's talking about, you know, a religious aspect to
his decision making. And you know, so whoever's in charge was sitting there,
well, you know, I prayed about it. But Jesus didn't say
give him the water or Jesus said hold on to what we may need it
later. People be losing their flipping minds over it. The media would be
parked out wherever it is. R L'd be running pieces, the mcclad she'd
be doing their thing. It wouldn't go well. But this guy, because
he's talking about it through you know, through the vision of the ancient Hawaiian
culture and thoughts. And yes, I understand it's a cultural thing too,
but that's not what anybody wants to hear. They want to hear, cut
and dry, not what's your philosophy for how you do your job is,
but why in this instance you did these two things and then chose not to
do the other thing in this case with access to the water for even firefighting
crews. That's it. That's all they want answers to. And he's sitting
there like it's a getting to Know you interview, Absolutely crazy man. All
right, six thirty seven kc O Day radio program. What else will come
out of Hawaii? I don't know. Oh I saw this story, Yes,
sir, let me share this with you. This is a little conspiracy
attached here, fake meat, right, all the rage, story after story
after story, and of course you have you know, people of let's just
say significant means talking about Bill Gates and whatnot, who are pushing this at
every turn, and then we got all the story. Oh, they just
just to prove lab grown chicken, which sounds wonderful. So you would think
that as the price of meat goes up, and that's what we've seen in
the grocery store, that more people would make that transition. And that's I
think what they thought arguably. And here's the conspiracy. There are people like
AOC right, remember the little the little one sheeter on the Green New Deal
was talking about getting read all the cows. That is not just from a
climate change standpoint directly with you know, like cow emissions, but also it
drives up the price of available beef and then that forces people to make that
decision. That's a that's a government tactic as old as time you drive up
the cost of something so that what you want people to do becomes the decision
that they make, even though you basically remove the decision well as the price
one up. Something weird happened beyond meat. The number one retail seller of
plant based meat substitutes announced they lost fifty three million in the second quarter.
Impossible Foods is number two. They they just announced they planned to chop twenty
percent of their workforce. Impossible is repeatedly delayed and expected initial public offering since
twenty twenty one. Now coupled that with the employment announcement and people have a
lot of questions. US beef consumption rebounded to fifty nine pounds per capita in
twenty twenty two from a twenty seventeen low of fifty four, So people were
eating more beef, and as it got more expensive, they didn't stop.
I got a bunch of other anecdotal stuff here because it's New York Post,
that's New York related. But now the gist of it is is the more
they promote this, the less people eat it. I think they probably went
out and tried it and they went, nah, I'm good. Yeah,
Nope, not going to do that, And I don't know that you're going
to have quick acceptance of lab drown anything. I don't know if you know
this. People are a little sketchy when it comes to labs right now,
and it to me, it doesn't look appetizing. You can definitely tell the
difference, and we eat with our eyes obviously to some extent, so we'll
see. But ultimately, the upward price of actual protein on the hoofs,
so to speak, isn't driving more people to try the fake meat? Excuse
me? Yeah, what is this you do? Do? Yeah? And
the revenue fell forty percent too for beyond Meat. Even though they annouced bunching
new deals, people just ain't eating it. And they got a whole list
here of vegan restaurants that were literally planned or restaurants that were going to incorporate
this because people thought this is the direction they were gonna go, where they
made the decision not to. Plus, I think in the ross won from
Burger King and it lived with him for like three days. So take from
that what you will, all right, eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seventy four. I
do have one or two other little Maui stories, But it's more about the
reaction by the media. ABC News has been bullied into changing their headline and
change the story. And you read the story, you're like, why would
you change the headline? But of course they did get a people sending the
mean tweets and that's what you do. ABC News changes Mauie headline to appease
climate cultists. Is the twitchy headline on this. So their initial headline is
why climate change can't be blamed for the Maui wildfires. Well, there you
go. You have all of these different elements that are known from weather to
electrical maintenance and equipment that didn't didn't do what it was supposed to do and
in some cases actually believed to have started the fire. You have a dry
season right now. You have non native grasses that have been grown in abundance.
When there is a dry season, they're more fire prone and it's part
of feeding livestock there. And these were decisions that were made. Trust,
Hawaii doesn't just let you bring in a bunch of stuff. They made decisions
long ago that that was going to be okay. Yeah, going to Hawaii.
Moving to Hawaii's crazy. I know somebody who moved. I talked about
this the other day and like trying to get their pets there was bonkers.
Well, they ended up changing the headline after getting aggressive pushback. It now
reads why climate change can't be blamed entirely for the Maui wildfires. And then
they didn't change anything in the story. It's still a story about all the
things I just told you, and not about climate change. But they threw
the word entirely in there just to alleviate the pushback. A bunch of cowards.
Man, all right, six six forty three case O Day radio program.
Based on your experience with the fake meat the burger king incident, do
you think that anytime soon you'll sample that again? No, and I won't
because it was weird. Man. It just sat in my stomach forever.
It's not natural, it's weird. It's like made in the lab, like
Frankenstein. I don't want that crap. Well, the I think the problem
that they're running into two is I think people did sample it before. In
some cases they got it right or right enough, I guess would be the
way to say it right when when you roll that out and really put a
push on you want people to go, oh, this is pretty good,
and the reality was your experience was not a unique one. But the thing
is too like actual real meat, right, like beef or whatever you say,
like chicken, like it's good for you, it's really good for you.
And this stuff they're making for you is I don't hard pass. Nope,
not gonna do it. What's your what is your preferred protein? Uh?
Because at the moment, I take in about two hundred plus grams of
protein a day, all right, since I've been going to the gym.
A lot of it is protein powder. But I also do like chicken breasts,
and I do like eggs. Guy, I probably eat about six or
eight eggs a day. Well, And the reason is so the reason I
asked, I would say my favorite protein is just the basic egg, like
hard boiled. Yeah, and I think they're bigger. Problem is they Some
are, I don't want to say, more realistic than others, but there's
more work put into them that chicken. Did you see the pictures some of
this lab grown chicken. At least with the beef, they got it to
bleed, which just creeps me out anyway, But like the chicken doesn't look
like chicken. I don't even know how to describe it doesn't so like again,
you eat with your eyes, so the beef you can kind of make
it look like you can fool yourself. Well, yeah, I guess I
don't think they're going to be running tasters choice commercials. I think the problem
with me personally is I don't buy their hype and I don't buy their lives
that the actual meat is bad for me, because most of they're doing it
right because it's better for the environment. I don't even believe that, because
you have these labs that have to make this meat, and you're telling me
those labs are producing you know, carbon or whatever. Well you also,
but what you also need is you need the core components for it. So
some of it's pa base. They use peas, which means they have to
grow a crap ton keys, and it's all scale too, So you're right
right now, I don't think it's carbon neutral. No, it's the same
as you know when you're like, oh, I'm buying an electric car because
it's better for the environment, Well, where this electricity going that charges your
car? And where do those batteries come from? And who's making the batteries
and what does the earth look like that you know where the batteries come from
the lithium and all that, and so it's I don't believe any of it.
So yeah, I'm not eating your fake meat. Yeah, you got
to get people to sit around and not do it as a chore, to
actually want to do it. And at no point does anyone sit there and
go, you know what I could go for? Uh soy, hold on,
let me what is the actual name? Soy leguma globin synthesized from genetically
modified ease. You know, it's easier to say nobody ever, you know,
it's easier to say and better for you egg huh egg? Oh wow,
yeah, see it's very simple. Yeah, but it doesn't have leguma
globin. Well, actually, as you know, what is it, uh,
leg gloom globa globin is my passion, as you know, is Yeah,
what if that's just code for the stuff that you know what, I
bet that that's just code to the elites and it's the stuff they're pulling out
of the kids. Oh, but they can't call it that. So they're
like, oh man, we gotta come up with some how about leguma globin
synthesize from genetically modified east. Yes, that'll full him. It's totally not
the other thing. All right, sixty eight hang on one oh six one
FM talk in the Triangle and here's PTI in the triad. Alright four,
welcome back Cross and I are just talking about protein consumption. Yeah yeah,
yeah, yeah. So you're eating two hundred grams. It doesn't sound like
a lot, but in reality it's more than most people take in. You
don't realize, like if you're trying to build muscle right and on, especially
like a day that you work out, you're supposed to take one gram of
protein for every pound that you are. So for me at the moment,
I'm two hundred ten pounds, so that would be if I want to gain
muscle, at least two hundred ten pounds on a rest dates point seven,
which comes out to about one fifty one sixty. But you have no idea.
But these guys that go to the gym, like professional bodybuilders, right,
they're going every single day, and which you'll hear a lot from them,
is you know a lot of times the protein intake is harder than the
actual workout. Because I've heard these I've heard these guys talk about like like
they eat chicken breast. Yeah, and it's like in the morning in the
ad and that gets super old. Yeah. My thing, like the thing
I hated that my mom would make, Like we've talked about my dad in
the meat loaf. For me, it was chicken breast when it was chicken
breast day. I hate it because it's so bull there's no flavor there,
and that's the point. That's why it's great protein for you. Right.
But then you like, and I saw this guy, he's doing the Chris
Evans workout, the workout in the diet that Chris Evans did when he picked
up the role of Captain America to sort of you know, get bulk up.
And the guy couldn't even make it, like through the entire day.
He's like, I cannot do this. You know that I have a theory.
I have a theory too, and I think it's because it's BS man.
I think a lot of these Hollywood people, especially when you see like
I'll give an exactly Christian Bale going from The Machinist where he looks like a
Holocaust victim to Batman right in like The Dark Night or whatever it was,
they've got to be using some form of steroid. You can't go from looking
like you're in Dachau to looking like you're on the stage next to Arnold Shore,
you know, like like you're like a bodybuilder. Makes no sense.
And then like six seven months, I here's the thing. Don't tell me
how you're doing it, because I don't believe you. And then when they
put out these articles and like here's the whole program, and I know you
got like nutritionist, personal trainer there, plus the dude who comes by with
the doctor stuff. If you catch them adrift, right, didn't we just
find out all the Hollywood's on like that ozempic? Yeah, they're in the
the what is it for diabetes medication? Yeah? A lot of people think,
like, you know, if you just all these act you know,
if that is what they're doing, Like say Chris Evans is like, hey,
I'm just gonna gonna juice up. I want to be clear. We
don't. We're just right exactly, thank you. But you still have to
put in the work because there's this idea like if you do like an anabolic
steroid, you just like you know, inject yourself like you're like Ivan Drago
and you sit back in your recliner and you build muscle. You still have
to go and work out every day and put in the time. The difference
is right, the steroid allows you to work out longer, harder, and
and builds the muscle faster. So I'm not saying that they're not going to
the gym and they're not working out and they're not doing all that, but
there might be some shortcuts. Possibly believe you're disparaging Ivan Drago. I heard
you cheated. Oh cheater, Okay, look at that, just throwing it.
You know what, you're gonna get sued. But you know what you
can't beat sheer American determination and grit. No, that's that's what we're known
for. And apparently flying too many flags for some Australian chick earlier in the
week. But yeah, what was that? There was one thing I was
going to add there too. Oh and the plus the chicken they're eating.
You don't even get to do anything fun to it. No, it's boring,
It's what I'm saying. This is buh. But you know they're dedicated.
Who was I trying to think of the guy's name? Who is the
dude who was like everyone was fawning over him, and then he's deliver.
That's what it was like. I was like, I got this body,
I just eat tons of liver. Liver is my passion, this one I
either like, I don't know, dude. Yeah. He kept he kept
these interviews and he had like raw liver with them. Yeah, and that
was the thing. They're like, ah, we want to watch you eat
it. I'm like, yeah, dude, your body just doesn't sort of
look natural, like your muscles have muscles on top of muscles. Dude.
His apology was something else too. That was just crazy. I think we
played a little on the air. All right, hour in the books reminder
eight oh five peak calendar, we'll join us. We got an arcade insanity.
I'll tell you about that, and uh, what is with everything going
on? The number one story on New York Post yesterday was not what I
expect you, but it's the one everyone wanted to comment on and it's Friday,
so I'll bring it up. Okay, so we'll get into all that
coming up to the next hour. Hang on, Sorry, let's make me
sure this story is real. I just saw yeah, Eric, look at
that. Wow. All right, Well, we got college campus in Santity.
I'll get to that here coming up, because of course we do gotta
gotta hit him from all sides as quickly as possible. Oh, by the
way, Rols, did you see this yesterday? Project Veritas basically ended up
firing everybody. Remember they got rid of O'Keefe right the board, busting him
out of there, and he's like, I'm gonna go do my own thing,
and you guys are probably not gonna do well. Apparently after he left.
I don't know if donation stopped rolling in or it was just a mess
or what happened, but basically the what's her name, Hannah, Hannah Giles,
Giles, I think she was the one who do you remember You remember
the acorn thing with James O'Keeffe and the prostitute right where he's in his pimp
outfit, And I think that was Hannah Giles. So she stayed, and
according to some reports that were literally being funneled through the Veritas Twitter account by
employees who still had access, she ended up firing basically the entire staff,
at least the field staff, just you know, just a few central Here's
the tweet, all of production, all of field ops, all of comms,
all of legal only remaining our office admin HR person and a couple development
people in it. Good lord. Yeah, this after the Project Veritas account
tweeted ss Hannah just fired us all. Apparently only eighteen people are left on
the staff. Yeah. Man, they they obliterated that, pushing Heath out.
Now, look, you know, obviously there were some people had problems
working with them, but he was the face of your organization. And this
is what people predicted. Let's see here how much we talking. Well,
I don't believe that for a minute. Oh this is one of the attorneys.
All right, I'm not even gonna read that. I get a whole
laundry list here. Yep, So as predicted. Actually, I would argue
quicker than predicted. I think people thought they would at least get into the
election cycle, but not the case. All right, let me flip over
to this. So with like political news out there, obviously Biden stuff,
we'll get into some new stuff with does Joe Biden have a fake name?
That's the subject of some stuff that was just released, And of course the
Trump indictment in Georgia. And yet I go over the New York Post and
a lot of times you can, you know, depend on which pageron you
can see. Are these are the top stories. And I was baffled that
for the second day in a row, the thing that people want to read
and comment on the most on the New York Post is some chick putting a
TikTok out saying this. We do not have a regular side of the bed
that we sleep on. Last night, I slept on that side, and
then the night before, for like two or three nights in a row,
I slept on this side. It's never discussed. We just randomly pick a
side when we go to sleep. And whenever this has come up in conversation,
people act like that is the craziest thing they've ever heard. But I
don't know. We just never picked a side of the bed. So I'm
bringing it to TikTok to see if it is actually as crazy as everybody says.
It is okay, all right, And then obviously, but and I
understand why people are like, ah, she's nuts, Like I get I
don't. Look, I'm not even married, and I have there is a
side of my bed where all my stuff is right, It's the where the
alarm clock is, It's where I've got the tables run up from my phone
charger. It's the drawer that's got like you know, aspirin and allergy medicine
and everything in there. So if I need something, boom, it's right
there. And like, I'm not so how does that work? If you
do, you'd move all your crap one way or the other. How is
that even functional? I'm assuming Ross, I'm assuming you have delineated sides,
like oh, yeah, this woman's a lunatic, okay, Like you need
to put her in a padded room and enter a single bed and her husband.
Yeah, separate single beds like Cleaver family. Yeah. I mean like,
I'm assuming your side of the bed, you got all your stuff right
right, we both have our tables at the other side of the bed,
right, yes, yeah, And so if you did that, you'd have
to end up moving it because it's stuff you need right now. That's what
Uh, It's what irritated people right there? So uh is it? Now?
I've heard some women explain they want the guy nearer the door, so
you know, when the murderer comes in. I guess he gets murdered first
or something, which I am closer to the door, yes, m M
And I always thought that was weird logic. When it was explained to me,
I'm like, what what Why do I have to be murdered first?
I mean, what arguable? Because hear the man, dude, is your
responsibility? You die first? Same thing on like if the boat is sinking,
I understand the bill birthing. What are you, Billy Zane? No?
No, no, no, hear me out, hear me out?
All right? Uh? You know in that sense, if I'm murdered first,
then then you get murdered right, No, because that gives them a
time to run out and escape. Like if they wake up and the murderer
is over me, you know, doing you know, like stabbing me in
the face or something repeatedly, she will wake up, see me getting stabbed
in the face and goes and run out of the house to leave. You
have more of a chance then if the murderer just starts stabbing you in the
face. So I am a somebody who enjoys horror movies. So I'm gonna
go from that perspective. In those instances, except in very rare cases,
one of two things will happen. She will if she does run, she
will break a heel. I know, what you're saying. You're saying why
she had heels on, I don't know, see the movies or just scream
the whole time. Well, listen, I'm not saying you're going to escape
and you won't be also died. But I'm saying it gives you a chance
to at least try to get away. But if you place her closer to
the door and the murderer comes in, and now it's the opposite, right,
she's getting because the murder stabbed repeatedly in the face from the get go.
From the get go, you being you know, probably the stronger person
in your relationship, then that allows you to, you know, get your
crap together and maybe do something about it. Or you're passed out drunk or
there's that, or you're like, you're so high in medication you can't get
up. So she's just getting stabbed in the face. I'm just saying that
wouldn't wouldn't you want a better chance of at least one person surviving? I
would if I had the option, I would go with a third option,
okay, of not getting stabbed in the face, not having to run.
And I have a I have like a like a saw a type mechanism in
front of my door. So when you try to get in, there's like
a gatlin gun that just okay, turns you to miss. That's where I
would go with And that's currently when I have set up in my house.
You got a camera on that at least? Yeah, yeah, that's what
I currently have set up. So if you come into my house at night,
turned to miss by a gatling gun, by the way, and I
shall shall not be infringed. This is under the assumption that you do not
have a piece under your pillow or in you know, in your drawer any
of that. So we're just gonna operate. And because I this couple doesn't
in the video, doesn't strike me as they have an arsenal in a in
a big basement safe. Okay, So I remember in a lot of places,
good luck even getting a hold of that stuff. So how ross got
a gatling gun? I probably don't even want to Then once if you were
to somehow get past my door, gatling gun and you would get into the
bedroom, well, now you would assault somebody in the bed. You would
find out that what was actually in the bed were dummies. And we are
actually in a room underneath the bedroom in a room. Yeah, yeah,
that's how we sleep. But the haze compound. What was they remember that
bed that had like the cage underneath it that somebody was selling on Facebook.
It's a it's normal bed, but instead of the underside of the bed,
it literally is a cage. Because you know, that's some people's thing right
there. So in a way, that's your own little safe room down there.
It would be really hard to stab you if they can't get into the
cage. Are you talking like it's literally you can't even tell where it is.
You can't even tell that it's under No. Yeah, but they'd be
Sammy, They're like, well, they're like Alcatraz dummies in the bill it
worked. Yeah, that seems like it seems like a lot of effort,
man. And also, hey, when it comes to the protection of my
family, there is there's no such thing as too much effort. Well,
no, there's other things you can protect with and acquiring a gatling gun and
building a fake bedroom. That's the point I'm making. But you know,
you're right. You do your thing. Although if you do build a booby
trap in your house, like a lot of times, you're liable. Now
it's the dumbest thing. Yeah, I mean if you have like an h
o A no, remember that guy that guy built that. Remember the guy
built where was it It was in South Carolina or something. He built like
a Oh it's a crazy story, like a like a like a knife or
a spear or something that came out. And the problem was is like police
were going to like serve them some warrant or something and they noticed this stuff.
They ended up arresting that dude. Yeah, he was even more than
that. He had like a pit. He had like he had a shot
That's what it was. He had a shotgun shell. He had also rigged.
It wasn't a shotgun. It was in some sort of zip gun kind
of thing. And if you didn't know what you were doing, you get
you get loaded with buckshot man, and they're like, nah, you can't
do that. I mean, this country has fallen so far. I mean
Washington used to have a pungee pit in Mount Vernon. I mean that's true,
right on the on on the river side. So it was like scenic
while you were uh you know, throwing people in there. No, Ross
is right, I've been there all right seven seventeen Casey O Day Radio program
hang on smart Talk all day, five w PTI in the Triad and one
six one FM Talk in the Triangle. So you're saying you get a little
honeydew project or a little little handyman thing. Over the weekend, you're gonna
build a bunker bed or whatever people are sending you. I've had like five
friends slash listeners text me videos of bunker beds and you know, related issues
and do you have this bed? It's great. I mean you don't tell
them. You don't want people to know exactly what they're getting into in case
I want to rob you. Well, yes, the thing. I don't
want to give way too much information about, like you can side my house.
I could have mentioned how also in front of the Gatlin gun, I've
hired an actor to portray Josie Wales. Okay, so you got a clustwood
looking like running the running the Yeah. So if you get past the gun,
you're like, oh, I have no chance. You ripped off my
idea. I actually have a Rambo double and it's a jeep mount at fifty
cow. Very scared of that, dude, the boatman, the boatman,
scared of the boatman. Dude, Okay, all right, well that you
know, that might be the last thing you ever think. I'm just saying,
don't break in. I'll tell you. I'll tell you. The one
bed though that was do you ever see the earthquake bed? So they make
this bed and it's like it's like a hungry, hungry hippo. That's one
of the videos somebody sent me. Oh yeah, all right. So the
way it works is, you know, you're laying in bed, everything's fine,
and then an earthquake, and a strong enough one too, I guess,
you know, hit whatever the Richter scale necessary, and then it literally
just like snaps, shut in your cocoon, din there. And my first
thought when I saw this, because I guess I'm a jerk, is so
if the bed shakes too much, do you see whe I'm going with this?
Dude, I thought the same thing, And I'm like, and what
if perhaps that's going on and one of you is not lying all the way
down? Yeah, you're gonna get decapitated. Okay, all right, well
that's what I'm That's what I'm wondering. The first thing that thought, I'm
like, you better hope the earthquake does and you won't necessarily feel it because
you know. And then there's the part where do you have to remember to
hit the switch when other things are gonna like? I have so many questions,
but it didn't. It looked well designed, and it looked like it
with snapshut pretty quick because it has to. It's like an airbag. Man,
you forget to flip that switch and all of a sudden, you got
it. You know, you gotta get remarried, all right? Eight eight
eight nine three four seven eight seven four. Oh man, all right,
let me try to get something that's reasonably news worthy other than just a weird
saw references. So House Republicans are looking into President Joe Biden's alleged use of
a fake name to mask his identity as they ramp up an investigation, So
what do you think Joe Biden's fake name is? Or alleged fake name?
According to House over Sight chairman James Comer, they are requesting all unredacted records
and communications regarding Biden's official duties as vice president. This is based on a
series of emails where it appears that another individual, not Joe Biden, but
rather a name that maybe his alias, is either c seed on or referenced
in the email, the name is Robert L. Peters, which is wildly
uninventive. You know, say what you want, I will give Mitt Romney
credit. Do you remember what his Do you remember what his fake name was?
What was it? Pierre de Lecto? Right, and by credit,
I mean it's one of the dumbest fake names I think I've ever heard.
So, yeah, it was like Pierre de Lecto. And then oh,
what was Anthony Weiner's fake name? Carlos Danger? Carlos Danger. That's right,
Carlos. How could I forget Carlos Danger? Yeah, Mitt Romney was
Pierre de Lecto, and Carlos Danger was Anthony Weiner. And then then famously,
Michael Vick was Ron Mexico because that's what he that's the name he used
when he went to go to get an STD test, and people figured it
out, and then they were having customized NFL jerseys printed with Mexico on the
back, and literally, the NFL they made a lot of them before they
figured it out, and then they wouldn't let you put Mexico on the back
anymore. Don't forget Kelnton Jr. He was my concho. Okay, that's
not really That's all I'm saying shaking Bay, Jaco Bay. All right,
hang LuSE, We've got news for you. We'll dive into that insanity coming
up. K c O Day Radio program. Hang on one oh six one
FM Talk and ninety four five w PTI, two stations driving the best in
talk. This is case O Day and Carolina's Morning News. All right,
seven thirty six, Good morning, welcome back. It is the ca c
O Day Radio program. Boy Al Sharpton two weeks in a row, Buddy,
appreciate it. Yep. His expert analysis always always a fun time.
When I flip on the NBC for the MSNBC and what did we just have
with Sharpton? Uh? The other day? What was? What was he?
It was dumb whatever it was. And then, because it totally ignored
that time he literally whipped up a riot and an Orthodox Jewish man was murdered,
and some people wonder if the two were connected. Then I was reminded
of the time he was on camera buying drugs and everyone was pretty sure he
flipped to an FBI informant. So that's fun, but that doesn't stop him
from owen the time he didn't pay any taxes. His business owed a bunch
and maybe still does. I don't even know, but you know, bring
him in, bring him in to provide expert analysis, especially analysis surrounding Trump
like this and the racial language. I mean this woman to call a federal
office, I'll call a judge's chambers talking about to a slate using all a
word that rhymes would the N word Donald Trump? All right, yeah,
and let me just point it out because it's because he talked about this woman.
He he's on a larger tangent, but you'll hear and you just kind
of hurt it there. He's gonna he's gonna pull into Donald Trump, and
it's about it's about some naughty language and some very racist language. All right,
just keep that in mind as we go through this. Here we go,
and the racial language. I mean this woman to call a federal office
or call a judges chambers talking about to a slave using a word that rhymes
with the N word Donald Trump himself their leader using the term riggers, which
clearly rhymes with the N word. I mean years ago, thirty years ago,
be mochigans. I'm on the central part five or I'm talking about he
and within the last twenty four hours used the term riggers. Is this the
kind of party the Republicans want to show the country that they are. There's
no one the independence and running away from them to identify with blade racism and
blatant violence. Is not the party that we need. And as I've never
been a Republican, never leaning their way, but we need a two party
system, but we don't need one that pes itself in bigotry. Yeah,
and is used, of course that racist and inflammatory language for so long and
only leading into it further as he's dealing with Yeah, all right, so
and so now if a word rhymes with a bad word, we're not allowed
to use it. I'm really confused by the rule in this case. Rigors,
and we was referring to is individuals, a group of individuals, and
the rigging of election. So if you're talking about something people are doing and
the name of the thing that they're doing specifically rigging, then they would be
riggers. And Al Sharpton is convinced that, well, obviously what is going
on here is there just he's just trying to slip the N word in there.
No, he was using the word to literally describe what he's accusing people
of. And I was just saying how many how many different how many different
words rhyme with rigors back. There's a website I go to when i'm doing
uh yeah, here we go. If you're if you're doing like songs and
stuff. All right, so let's look at all the words we're not allowed
to use. Ross get the the taker bell already there we go. Okay,
because I suspect this is not going to be a short list. All
right, here we go. Alright, so the following words are canceled because
they rhyme. Was something that Al Sharpton's mad about. Biggers? Oh yep,
yep, yep. Oh, this is not good. I've I've actually
dealt with this. Chiggers. Have you ever had chiggers burrow in your lout's
miserable? A jigger that's a that's a bar thing, that's gotta go.
Oh no, triggers in whatever sets right because you've got firearm usage there,
you have, you know, things that set off blue haired college students obvious
that Trump was talking about tiggers, which at forty five isn't gonna catch the
he bounces. There's no way, no, that's that's it's not going to
happen. Oh no, clam diggers, clam diggers. These people out there
making sure that you have all of the shelled seafood you could ever want at
that all you can eat. Buffet out riggers. How many of you like?
Uh? Fishing boat fishing out riggers For those you don't know, those
are those like one looking things that hang off the side of the boats you
see when you go down to UH. I haven't told you we've we've reached
our taker bell limit. Oh no, so we have to pay more if
we want more? Do you want me to click yes, if you want
to upgrade. I don't want to, like, you know, put up
the company. Make it look like the one of the other shows bought it,
so we don't. All right, I'll check the box. Oh here's
somebody you look. You don't want to hire this person, but when you
need to, you're glad they're doing what they're doing because you don't want to
do it yourself. You're ready. Grave diggers, Grave diggers? What was
that? Okay? That was that was Paul Bear? It's pretty good,
Yeah it was. I thought he was in the room, or at least
the ghost of him. But also the monster truck's gonna have to change its
name, right, And there's not just one. There's a crap ton of
them. Man, this is and that's by the way, that's just one
racist word. There's other racist words that are the words that I guess I'll
Sharts would claim a racists that have a lot more things that rhyme with it.
But we're not gonna go down that road because some I'll get in trouble.
But yes, in this case, we had to cancel all those words.
So deep sea fishing enthusiasts, people dealing with the death of a loved
one, people who enjoy like clam chowder or whatever, people who get chiggers
and need to literally treat that because it's awful. It's just the worst.
Oh. Also the rigors of things, right, so you have people who
are wanting descriptive ways to describe challenges they faced, and just just a whole
lot of stuff that unfortunately is out. So there he goes. Want to
make sure you who are armed with all the words, you're not allowed to
us today. My mind is just going over all the other bad words and
all the things that rhyme with it. It's a long list, but for
now we're gonna go to weather stuff free staging here and all right, my
man, what's going on? Not a lot. It's gonna be a pretty
easy one for me over the next few days. If you want rain,
I got nothing. It might not rain here casey for the next seven days.
So okay, Yeah, try to get into that kind of weather pattern.
Well, if you do that and lower the temperature, people do.
Oh, this is so nice to go out and do stuff. Yeah,
we wish right, We're gonna increase the temperature and the humidity of course.
Yeah, and maybe rivals some of the hottest weather we've had so far this
summer. Early next week, as the ridge is going to slide east,
which elsewhere in the world of weather, is going to help category four Hurricane
Hillary weekend and head toward southern California. You haven't heard about that yet.
That will be in the headlines this weekend because it's the first time since the
National Hurricane Center has been issuing their cones of uncertainty, we know the cone
of death since two thousand and two that San Diego and Los Angeles have been
in that cone. So from a historical perspective for US meteorological type or weather
lovers, little exciting I hope they can escape the heavy rain and the flooding
and the winds. The winds should die down, but in southern California,
maybe some tropical storm force winds as it makes its approach and weekends. Over
the weekend, and our influence of the high pressure that's gonna help steer that
into California is going to be the building heat here upper eighties, maybe ninety
in some spots today and tomorrow ninety or just above for Sunday, and that's
when we'll start to see a south breeze and that increase in humidity and maybe
spend a couple of days in the upper nineties for the Triangle. Not quite
that warm for the tribe, but pretty close, probably going to between ninety
four ninety eight for Monday Tuesday, and then they come down to the low
nineties to the upper eighties on Wednesday Thursday, but no rain. Speaking of
tropics, the Atlantic's got four areas the Hurricane Center's watching over the next seven
days, but at this point, the one that's going to head into the
Gulf, there's only a low chance. The other three out in the central
Atlantic really don't look like they're gonna make much progress. Across the Atlantic,
but we'll keep an eye on. If they do, it'll still be next
week or beyond that they even get close to the east coast of the US,
so we'll see. Alrighty, talk to you in an hour, sir.
Appreciate it. All right, there you go, and coming up a
couple of quick stories and then Pete Calendar eight oh five, he'll join us.
You're on our Friday hang on your day Smarter one oh six one FM
Talk and News Talk five w PTI more with Casey starts all right, good
morning seven fifty one or fifty two rather coming up at five. Pet Calendar
joins sus A low us to get into from veto override insanity to apparently a
tweet that I missconstrued and everyone was taking out a context yesterday by a lawmaker
from APEX. But I don't know how you take it out of context because
it's like three words or something. Well, it's more it's like it's one
sentence. It's responding to another tweet. But maybe I just don't get it.
I did ask her to explain. I tweeted it out yesterday and we
have not heard anything, so maybe I misread it. A spoiler, I
didn't. I think she just realized the pushback she was gonna get for that.
So well, but that'll be coming up eight o five. Let me
get to a couple of things first. So I saw a couple of these
videos. This story emerged after a hashtag hashtag no bra and it I didn't
look. I didn't know what it was. I had to do the research
and it has apparently six hundred million tags so far on TikTok, and what
it is is gen z women. So basically you're looking at college age to
mid twenties. Really is the wheelhouse here on this who are taking on what
is called the no Broad challenge. And I'm telling you this because the way
that it's being sold when you watch a couple of these videos is that this
is some giant act that they just came up of, you know, pushing
back on the expectations of society. I don't know if you know this,
but feminist messaging with about not wearing bras and or perhaps even lighting them on
fire, that's not a thing you just came up with. And I know
that you think you're brave because the one girl's like, I know, we're
going to get pushed back in certain elements of society, and you have to
get comfortable with it. And but you know, we have to do this
to send a message. And I'm like, I don't know that you're going
to get the pushback you think you're going to get when a bunch of you
know, twenty three twenty four year old girls don't want to wear bras under
their their you know, under their T shirt or whatever, like I of
all the like the people blocking traffic are irritating the crap out of people.
I don't know that that's going to irritate at least half the population. So
anyway, that's that's an immense amount of it's you know what it is.
It's another in the long examples of this thing that you just thought of that
they then wrote a new story about. And everyone else who's even like five
years older than whoever's doing it, it's like, yeah, that's not new.
Like in New York, where they're like now people who are not even
related are living together to save money on rent. Oh you mean roommates.
Yeah, okay, all right, And there's been others, but yeah,
I know, in this case, it's feminist. It's a feminist pushback.
It's girl power and so not gonna do this. And I'm like, I
wouldn't. I wouldn't even around in the sixties. Like and I'm I'm aware
that this you're not. This is not new, but all right, whatever,
what whatever floats your boat. Okay, all right, check this out.
This story is bonkers. This is Atlanta. This is actually Decatur.
Decatur. That's a nice suburb. Rose Decatur is nice. I think it's
one of the nice ones. Yeah, okay, So this guy owns a
house there. He had it's a rental property and his previous tenant to parted.
He was trying to get it filled. So he goes over there and
when he walks on the property, he notices the part of the fence is
knocked down. There's a bunch of dogs kind of in the yard and also
on the outside because the fence is knocked down. And as he makes his
way in front of the property, he encounters a stranger waving a gun in
his face. He said, I ran, I didn't know what else to
do. Well, they calls police. Says, I think I got some
squatters in the house, and sure enough police show up. However, when
they arrive, the man who owns the home is standing out there. The
police go talk to the people inside inside the home at that exact time,
are weapons, a prostitute who is working out of the home, the dogs
and the people inside said no, no, this is our house. He
came over and was trying to he's a home invader, and police arrested the
guy who owns the house. Wouldn't believe him and apparently ignored the drug den,
house of prostitution stuff going on right in front of him. So they
take him back to the station or no, he was arrested and detained.
I don't think they got him back to the station, but they eventually figured
out, yeah, it's his house, but then told him, now you
got to go through the courts, and so he did. By the way,
two people have died of overdoses among the squatters, friends and fam And
this guy six months now can't get in his house and the city is writing
him code enforcement violations for not maintaining the property which he legally can't access,
and he says he doesn't know what he's going to get in there, and
believe it or not. In and around Atlanta and Decatur, it's it's got
a bit of a San Francisco feel where the courts don't want to deal with
it, and the response they well, he's got more than one house.
Yeah he does. You know why because he made an investment at one point,
took on the risk on the payments, and decided he was gonna maybe
I don't know how he if he lived in it and then bought another and
kept it or what, but he decided he was going to be a landlord.
You decide you're gonna be a piece of craft squatter with your drug den,
running a house of prostitution out of it, and your buddies keep odeon
in there, and police are doing nothing to nothing to help this guy.
Let's see the ACTI duty officer told said that he could not evict this.
It's a civil manner. It's a forty three hundred square foot house, five
bedrooms, five baths. Good lord, Yeah, sure, glad you pay
those taxes, aren't you, sir? And the part where they're riding him
tickets because his lawn's too long, but he can't go there because they point
a gun at him and he's already been told he's gonna go through the process.
That is just that is icing on the cake Man Government at its finals.
All right, good morning everybody, and welcome. It is eight o
seven here on your Friday Casey O Day radio program. I'm glad to have
your long phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four.
Hold onto that. We'll get back some calls in the back half of this
hour and a few stories I want to get into. But to help me
burn a half hour, we welcome in our radio buddy to the South Peak
calendar. How are you doing this morning, sir? Oh, I'm doing
all right? How are you? I'm pretty good. I there's a couple
of things I don't fe understand and I was hoping maybe you could help me
shed some light on this morning. I'll do my best, Casey, I
am a giver. Yeah, well, you know, put our heads together.
Yeah. So when the writer Will Dorn posts a tweet saying parents Bill
of Rights now law in North Carolina, we'll get to the overright stuff and
critics say it'll ban books. Supporters question whether some books are too mature for
elementary and he included photos of a book called It's Perfectly Normal and then and
then on the inside he there's there's illustrations of people getting it on and and
that book was advertised as good to go for fourth graders. And then one
of our elected officials, apex repped, Julie von Hoffen uh quote, tweeted
it and said, guess she's never heard of the internet. He's she's referenced
seen Amy Scott Gaily, who gave the book to Dorn and immediately was met
with pushbacks. She deleted it and then said I deleted a post because it
was clearly taken the wrong way. Guess I shouldn't post in the middle of
session. I'm not going to read the whole thing, but I wanted to.
That was the That was like one sentence, and it seemed pretty clear
to me, and that was if it's on the internet, then your kids
should be able to hexces us. I'm really confused. So she didn't mean
that. What did she mean? Well, I think and she went on
to say in that tweet something about how something to the effect of like,
hey, you know what, I was just, you know, on the
social media. I was on Twitter or I guess X, this is fair.
Let me read it actually verbatim, just because I want to be fair
about this, because I can't fathom what she meant. But I think she
meant what she wrote. She goes honestly, I guess I won't post in
the middle of session when people's rights are being attacked. I was, you
know, like the right to give that to a fourth grader. I was
upset sitting in a room being a witness to cruelty. It's tough. I'm
only human, although some on here seem to think otherwise. I don't.
I don't think she's non human. I think she is wildly partisan and misinformed.
And there's stuff on the Internet that's not age appropriate for me but that
you could stuff you can never unsee if you want, I'll give you some
search terms when we're done. But no, no oh, I thought,
yeah, no, I thought Elon musk is he's helping us all get to
that point by renaming his platform X. So this way we end up with
all sorts of sorts of inadvertent search results. But no, I think so
number one. I think really the big takeaway here is that she's the victim.
Right. She is the victim here because she was simply on the Twitter
machine opining about things and you know, fired off a tweet ill advised but
you know, she was just so darn triggered and upset at all of the
cruelty and such that really she cannot be blamed in all of the attacks against
her for pointing out like, hey, maybe everything on the Internet should not
be given to, you know, a seven year old, that there might
be some age appropriate material and age inappropriate material, and that we should maybe
kind of discern what goes into libraries and then into the little kid's hands.
But really, the key I think was that she was the victim in all
of that for people noticing her tweet. So first off, Second, well,
I would like to just introduce a term to democrats and media. But
I repeat myself. In North Carolina, the word is curate. Curate,
right it is. I thought so too when I stumbled upon this where I
did. It hasn't been in use for a long long time. It's like
I think it's like out of no, no, you are sir. You
curated boxes are a big thing. You never you've never seen these, so
you get like you get the club, like there's the one that advertised on
TV all the time where it's like cool stuff for dudes, right, and
like in the add they got like a knife and then some outdoor stuff and
some sunglasses, and then you get a specially quote curated box. So the
term is somewhat in fashion, but you're right, not widely used, but
a perfect right. So would that mean that all of the items that are
not in those boxes are banned? It does not, know, you can
still buy those on your own if you want them. Really, Oh okay,
So the reason I like, I stumbled upon this word and I thought,
this is a much better word to describe the selection of materials that are
going into libraries, because if you think about it, there are a lot
of books. I mean, if you go back throughout all of history and
you add them all together, there's really a lot of books. And I
don't think that we can buy one or multiple copies of every single book that's
ever been written for every single library, you know, It's just you would
have these huge buildings with all of these books. And look, some of
the books haven't even been reprinted in a while. So I think that libraries
may be looking to use the word here curate some of the material that they
make available because they can't. They can't put every book on every shelf,
right, so they have to make decisions about what books to put on the
shelves in the libraries, and that applies to the libraries at schools as well,
just like bookstores too. I think they actually have to They've got to
make some of these decisions too. So I would just helpfully, because you
know, I'm a giver, and I want to help the journalists in North
Carolina and in other states where these issues are being debated, that the word
you are looking for is curate. They want the librarians in the library is
to curate materials that are age appropriate. And that does not mean that the
books get banned. It means that you don't make the list of curation,
which is a form of the word curate. Yeah. Well, well,
you know what, I'm reminded of something and you'll have to you'll have to
fact check me on this. I believe that in some inferences, in both
libraries and museums, you see more in museums there might even be a job
title than in corporate. Really, yeah, like it's a whole profession or
something. And that makes sense though, Yeah, like that because especially in
a museum, uh, you know, because you've got to give a lot
more floor space to a single piece of art, you know, And yeah,
but you can't just pack them in like the book, yeah right right
right, the banana with the duct tape and all of that, right yeah,
or the crucifix in the urine. You've got to give a lot of
room, and even like more so nowadays it's even more important because you've got
to give a whole zone around pieces of art because people come in and glue
themselves to it and so you need way more space. So that means you
can't put as as many pieces of art. So yeah, it makes sense.
You would need somebody like full time to just, you know, decide
what pieces of art go in the museums. That makes sense. Yeah.
You know. By the way, have you watched the ever escalating videos of
the stop oil people like those truck drivers over in the UK. They're just
done with this. They're just great, do you see now? It's nuts?
So right, I saw that one with the female bodybuilder that just dragged
a woman off the street. But I saw one over the weekend and this
might be at this might be the solution, because I am all about solutions
as well, So here's this might be the solution. When you come across
one of these crazy people that have parked themselves in the middle of the road
in order to force every vehicle to idol and burn more gaseline in the process,
you know, all to obviously stop people from driving gas powered cars.
What one guy did was he he backed up, turned his vehicle around,
and then backed the vehicle right up next to the protester, putting the exhaust
pipe in the guy's face. Got a guy, you have you got to
have an older vehicle. You gotta have one. You cut the catalyte converter
off, I mean for maximum Well yeah, right, but yeah, I
mean but even so, like you've got this hot air coming out at you,
and you know, the smell of it and all that, and I'm
assuming it's like they're kryptonite because when I saw it it actually occur. The
protester guy just rolled right out of the road, just like went just like
got into the fetal position, rolled right out of the way. Well that's
what he's not committed. That's why you have to concrete your hand into the
road. You don't have to make those decisions. Here's another idea. Maybe
we start, uh, we take some tubes and we hook them to the
to the tailpipes and then we put them around the vehicle and push him to
the front of the vehicle. But this way, if we ever encounter these
moon bats, we don't have to turn the vehicles around because you know,
you could there could be a lot of traffic or something. So you just
put it around the side of the car, push it to the front,
or we just drive in reverse all the time. Oh well, even it's
called a snorkel peat ah. Yeah, you can get these outfitted on like
SUVs where you're gonna be driving through cricks and stuff. Yeah, yeah,
yeah. And now normally it goes way up above the passenger cabin, so
you give me maximum, but you could point that downward. I mean,
that would be a that'd be a lot easier. Actually, like a switch,
like a like the like the train lines have like a switch where you
would just like divert uh. You know, you'd cap the one that goes
to the pipe that goes up and you would just redirect it to the pipe.
You know, it's attached to the front of the vehicle. And this
way, if you encounter people, you just flip that switch and bam,
you got the exhaust going right in their faces. And then they'll get out
of your way, dude. We're probably we're probably getting written up right now
by one of the many Twitter accounts that I'm blocked from following from these two
guys are on the radio trying to poison the protesters. Yeah, just no,
I'm just I'm just testing their commitment. Did you see the video of
the two dudes who went to their little breakfast brunch thing and and launched the
rape whistles on balloons in the room? Awesome, oh my goodness. And
of course they're in the you know, they're in this cathedral of a room
with like thirty foot ceilings, so not not a thing they could do except
right, it was to run around with a ten foot ladder like that was
gonna help. But a right, it was. So because this was if
I recall correctly, the video is like these were, uh, this was
like some gathering of the just Stop Oil people. These are the people that
go into the middle of the road and stop everybody from you know, carrying
on their normal activities. And so these were counter demonstrators who crashed their just
Stop Oil event and they had helium balloons and they attached great whistles and they
would just set the whistle off and then let go of the balloon and it
would go all the way up to the top and it's like, yeah,
fifty feet up into the ceiling. And they launched like five or six of
them, and it became so loud that the just Stop oil people could not
carry on their with their little event. Yeah, and and and but at
the end of the video you see one of them walking around with like a
ten foot ladder rights. Yeah, yeah, it's gonna do anything. And
my other thought was, you know, they could make like a cheerleader pyramid,
but I didn't look like any of the dudes could be a base there,
So yeah, I don't know that there was one of the probably a
couple of the women, but yeah, it wasn't wasn't gonna work real quickly
on the override stuff. Six overrides, the you know, the world's coming
to an end looking at blue Twitter NC Blue Twitter stuff while they're going on.
But all of those overrides, three of them really kind of big deals.
And I know they're getting a lot of grief on the budgets aside from
the Democrats. This is what they fear. They want the budget done so
they can call the session because God knows that they're overriding, and I would
argue bipartisan overrides even yeah, even if they get one vote and it's a
Republican voting for a Democrat thing. The media uses bipartisans, So I'm going
to use it here because that's what happened, right. It was by Yeah,
it was by partisoning. Kudos to the two Democrats, one of whom
was quoted in one of the reports, And kudos to the reporter that asked
the Democrat. I believe it was Garland Pierce who was quoted and said who
had originally voted against the measure, but then went back to the district and
said that he had heard from constituents and people of both political parties that were
on board with the Specifically, it's the you know, the banning of the
surgeries, the transgender surgeries for miners and for the hormone across hormone treatments across
sex hormones and the puberty blockers, and look like the right and the Women's
fair ines fact right to keep the biological male or to keep males out of
competitive female sports in schools. And you know, I was talking about this
yesterday and I got a call from a friend and he's he was a former
lawyer for the Mecklenberg Democratic Party, and we talked for like half an hour
on the air, and finally at the end I asked him, well do
you think of that? Because he was trying to make the argument that this
is in small government and you don't trust the parents and that sort of thing.
And I said, well, do you believe that there is any element
whatsoever to the trans to the rise in transgenderism over the last five or six
years. Do you believe that there is any social contagion aspect to this?
And he wouldn't even acknowledge that there might be that there might be a small
component of social contagion. Didn't didn't the professor or Brown University publish literally of
that report, and then they they eviscerated this woman. So she did the
right because she found these pockets right right and was wondering, and they published
it, and they published in a legitimate journal, and everyone losed their minds,
so they unpublished it, and I don't know, she probably didn't even
work there anymore. They eviscerated that woman, right, And even if you
don't take the view that it is all due to a contagion. Even if
you don't take that view, but you have to acknowledge there is some level,
because there is a thing called rapid onset gender dyspor you where where mainly
adolescent and you know, teenage girls are all of a sudden, like their
whole friends set just all become trans. How does that happen? How is
it that you see this spike in over the last five to ten years in
Europe that where they've tracked this for longer and they've been doing the Dutch protocol,
uh, you know, affirmations that they've been doing that much lower.
Now they're reversing course on this and they're saying, whoa, whoa, whoa,
this isn't working and we're seeing a four thousand percent increase in trans girl
or you know, girls that want to be boys, and that there's something
else going on here. And if you can't even acknowledge that, how are
you supposed to have a conversation about it. Here's another thing that they try,
this emotional blackmail argument that you either have you know, do you want
to trans son or a dead daughter? Right, This idea that if you
don't don't affirm then your kid's going to kill themselves. You know, you're
also sending a message to those kids, by the way, right, you're
sending a message to those kids that transing will solve whatever dysphoric or mental issues
that they have pre existing the dysphoria, right, they have the like the
most of these kids have issues before they ever go down the pathway of transgenderism.
And so if you tell them that transing will solve your problems, and
if you don't get this stuff and you're going to kill yourself, are you
not then creating the very thing that you are saying you're trying to avoid.
But they never want to entertain this idea. They just think correlation is causation,
and that's that's not the case. It's not the case. And you
can't even have a discussion without getting canceled over the matter h thirty seconds.
Now, what are you going to do with your Monday? Since Trump's not
doing his pressure? No, yeah, no cracking. I am yeah,
I am completely shocked, Although I did like the excuse. It was like,
wow, you know, the lawyers say I shouldn't talk about it,
Well, yeah, I can totally see that, but I'm pretty sure the
lawyers would not be advising you to be ripping the prosecutors and the judges as
well. But there's there's nothing normal about any of this, obviously, No,
truly. Yeah, I knows. All right, Pete, I gotta
roll, have a good resting fast, see you all right, man,
you too, and we'll be back hanging on Everybody show. After the show.
He's on the iHeart Radio app. Search case o day for the podcast
on the iHeart Radio app. All right, good morning, it is eight
thirty five. We're gonna jam pack this last half hour because I got about
a thousand things I want to get to. So uh oh, by the
way, a little sports stuff yesterday, Browns Cleveland Browns uh kicker their place
kare Kade York And I don't. I'm not a I'm not a Browns fan,
so I don't. I don't follow all the team blog stuff. But
I did dip in a little with the various Twitter uh and who's the one
guy that's a big Browns for Cleveland McNeil. Right, guys got a bunch
of followers on there, and so he was retweeing a bunch of stuff.
There's been some disagreement over who's gonna be who should be the kicker? And
it's like between the fans and like management. So anyway that Kade York's supposed
to be the dude. And he hit a field goal in the first half
and this is all preseason, but made a field goal, and then the
team put this thing like, hey, Kade York's awesome post up and at
halftime he actually like repost did it right? Hey, look how awesome I
am. And the problem with that is is if you do that and then
in the second half you miss not one, but two game winning field goals,
people are gonna clown on you. And they did. And then he
did the worst thing he could possibly do. He deleted the post. It
was an Instagram post, which of course amplified it to about a hundred.
So yeah, so the dysfunction is is off to a good start over there.
I feel bad for Cleveland fans, man. I had no personal beef.
I just feel bad, like I want you guys. You know why,
because I want I want teams that are not the usual teams to win.
If my team's not going to, right, I'll give me a Buffalo
Bills win, all right, give me a Cleveland Browns win. Yeah,
I'll just if if, if, if I can't be the one I prefer
to see that kind of stuff, then just the usual suspects, over and
over. That being said, if you're the man, I don't know,
Ross's that rise to poverty, I think we have to throw poverty right.
If you're if he's screening in a call. Yeah, if if if you're
in a management fight and you're in the management and that's your dude and he's
missing two game winners, not only they're gonna gonna clown on him for sure,
but they're coming after you two man. So we'll see, all right,
little sports there for you. But we got some other stuff we've gotta
get into, including the Barnes and Noble Sniffer. What a creepy story this
is, and believe it or not, this is just a continuation of the
same crap that you see being problematic and much of southern California. Oh Ross,
I was asking, can we label the Brown's poverty now or do we
have to wait? I mean, two game winning field goals preseason after you
bragged on Instagram. I kind of feel like Elis Iris back to Browns fans
because they're so, uh we hear what I did? Right? Yeah?
Yeah I did. Yeah. So, I mean it does sound poverty yet,
but I mean I respect the fan base. I mean, can you
imagine having a kicker miss a game winning field goal like that? Oh surely
I cannot twice. So that's you're out because it was. I mean,
you would have to invest on a kicker now, somebody that never misses.
Uh huh okay, yeah that that whole thing's a mess. So anyway,
Barnes and Noble sniffer, that's the thing. He is. His name thirty
seven year old Calise Crowder. This is I have some questions about this.
So according to police, uh, the the sniffer who has a rap sheet
of forty arrests for sniffing women and child peeping and just a whole bunch of
fun stuff. Right, But of course he's out running around doing his thing.
I was arrested after a series a series of viral TikTok videos appeared showing
some dude following women around Barnes and Noble going like he's grabbing a book off
the bottom shelf and inches away sniffing their behinds, like you know, like
your dogs do when they go out, which I don't. I don't get
that, but you know not kind of seems well, well, a lot
weird. But also here's why would Barnes and Noble be your go to?
This is the same question I had. Do you remember that story we did
where there was the guy in the Walmart parking lot up by where was it?
It was up by uh one of the shot I can't remember what shopping
center was, but like, so he's out there and he's he was doing
this thing where he was like exposing himself the women that were walking out,
and I'm just like, bro, obviously you don't make good decisions. But
in addition to the other bad decisions you're making, is that gonna be your
your most your best hunting ground. You know what I'm saying. For your
little pervy action, which thankfully got him arrested, there's there's there's there's stories
were a much hotter collection of women for your little weird thing gather and because
Walmart's gonna be a lot of may no, gonna be a lot of that,
a lot of waiting. I'm just saying in the same way that like
Barnes and Noble, I don't know if it's a target rich and I guess
if he doesn't care. But again pointing out the fact that this dude has
forty arrests and going back to two thousand and five, and it's just about
every deviant, creepy, horrible sexual thing you can think of, and some
of it including children. And he's just he's just out this doubt doing his
thing, TikTok videos emerging, so and and and it literally took some public
demand for them to even like track him down. And who knows all told,
they say he did it to at least twenty women, that's what they
know of I mean, because there's gonna be a bunch that they never knew
that it happened because they're, you know, they're looking at the bookshelf.
He's doing his thing from out of view of them, and unless somebody says
something, maybe they didn't see him. Let's see here. Yeah, according
to detectives, they've known Crowder for years. Actually he's been a book forty
one times now because this was his forty first arrest. And don't worry,
they're going to do something this time. I'm not gonna stand for that.
So he might get a week Who the hell knows. Oh and then real
quick this ross. Did you see the question mark in space? Yeah?
Yeah, I saw that. Yep. Okay, all right, so there
is a photo that release since it's conspiracy Theory week, there was a photo
release by the James web Space Telescope. All right. Uh, and in
it there appears and I don't just mean it kind of looks like a question
mark. That straight up is a question mark. And you know it's when
you when you zoom in, you can kind of see what formulates that.
But that has some folks wondering is that some sort of sign? And I'm
like, that's really you think that. You think that, in an effort
to somehow announce their existence in a far off galaxy, that they went with
a question mark, which you're also assuming would be something symbols. That was
what I was gonna say. It's it's like it's a it's a thing on
Earth and not even in all languages and this what so you're saying it's universal.
I just didn't know that. I mean, I'm saying that's what they
have to be saying otherwise it makes sense. Yeah yeah, yeah, but
also what's the question like what the hell? Like maybe they get some of
our maybe they get Florida Man's stories and they just finally couldn't take it anymore,
and they're just like, what the what the hell is wrong with these
people? So maybe it is a message based on our own thing. You
know, here we go. Oh okay, I thought the Oh the one
guy deleted his tweet. Oh that's too bad. I had even bookmarked it.
Wo, I was gonna read it. Wasn't he's all in on this,
not the Florida Man thing, but like it's some sort of sign.
And it was like question, It was like, question, why they won't
tell you about us? So the guy's theory, the conspiracy theory, was
that the aliens put it up because they've been coming here for years, doing
their thing, flying around, getting on the camera, and still governments won't
tell them that. You know, the people that the we're here and the
aliens are mad because they made the effort. Was the was the was the
gist of this guy's little twitter Thor it could be a random formation of stars
and nebula whatever. I don't know. Wait, is there not a bowl
in the sky? What is there not a fish in the sky? Is
there not a giant Ladle north of me. I just assume that's what it
was. Or is that just what they painted on the inside of the dome?
So you know, you know, you know, you know too much.
Okay, you don't think it's aliens going, Oh well what they tell
them about us? Okay, all right, but the picture is cool anyway,
we'll tweet it out for a rased agent from the Weather Channel. Maybe
he has thoughts the space question mark. Yeah, but fly right by two?
Who is not pass you know? Locked the doors first? Yeah,
I hope they don't have blasters? Who is it? Kathleen Met The comedian
Kathleen Madigan had a whole bit about that. It's like, you know,
if you're an alien flying by, it's like driving by a rough part of
Alabama or something. Why would they stop? Yeah, hey, listen,
there's sometimes Yeah, there's probably worse, but I can guarantee if there's better.
I mean, you think of the galaxy not given if there isn't,
can I just be a nihilist for a moment? What if everything right?
If this? What if this is as good as it gets? Yeah?
Well, the good news about that is that will never know, right,
And if we want to think that way. We can think that way,
but we'll never know. We'll never know. But I can't imagine that this
is as good as a gay I mean, they listen, it's not that
bad. I mean, at least on an individual basis. So ross you're
hearing this right, like Earth, he hates Earth. He's like one,
He's like one of these people. He's like one of these guys, like,
wow, I wish we were more like Europe be proud. No,
just elements of it, and I think everybody has that, and there's probably
more elements that I like than I don't. Like. You just wondered that
one hundred twenty eight year old woman who said, like they were like,
you know, what's the secret to life? And she's just like, life
is nothing but pain and misery. Feel me now, even if I love
life, That's what I tell the reporter for bugging me. But oh,
look, all right, sorry, I gonna yeah, no problem. There's
not much I mean, slowly. The heat's gonna come back some decent days
coming up through about Saturday tomorrow, probably stay in the eighties today the coolest
or tomorrow the coolest, mid maybe upper eighties, and then the ninety degree
heat returns maybe a couple of days next week in the mid and upper nineties,
with the hottest readings being around the triangle. Maybe he's coming back to
and I don't see much rain, maybe even through all of next week.
All right, have a good weekend, sir, appreciate it. And Jeff
Bellinger's next hang on. All right, Good morning. It is eight fifty
three during Friday and Bloomberg Update final one of the week. Jeff Flinger,
what's happening well, Good morning. KSE stocks racked up more losses yesterday and
it looks like this is the pattern for today. The ADAW futures are down
one hundred eighty eight points at the moment. Crop prices have been in a
slump, but farmers are still upgrading machinery. Deer and Company posted stronger than
expected quarterly results this morning, and the company raced its southlook for the year,
saying demand for its iconic green machines remained strong from large scale farmers who
want newer, more advanced equipment. Economists in general are growing more upbeat about
the economy. Bloomberg touches base with a panel of experts each month. The
latest prediction is that the gross domestic product will increase at a one point six
percent annual rate in the third quarter. Just a month ago, the panel
was predicting GDP growth for the quarter would come in at half a percent.
The economists now expect modest growth instead of modest contraction in the fourth quarter.
Soaring mortgage interest rates made this a rough summer though. For the real estate
industry. Redfinn CEO Glenn Kellman was interviewed by market Watch. He said the
housing market has hit rock bottom. He says the only people who are moving
now are ones who absolutely have to. And Casey, Amazon dot Com is
soliciting videos from influencers to enhance its shopping feed. It is willing to pay,
but it made a really low ball offer that's being mocked on social media.
Amazon will pay twenty five dollars per video. Most content creators charged two
hundred dollars or more, and Bloomberg says this offer sparked a lot of lols
online. Casey, you know what, I get the pricing though, just
because like a bunch of people are going to do it, because then they'll
be one of the videos Amazon used, and that's going to get them follows.
So and could happen way too much time. Other hand, this is
yeah, all right, we'll have a good weekend, sir. We'll chat
Monday. Okay, okay, enjoy your weekend, Casey, take care.
Yep, there you go. Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg News. All right,
a couple of things before we get out of here. Uh, well,
you know what, Actually I'm gonna I was gonna go one direction. Let
me go this. A woman is accused of assaulting a kid looks maybe eight
eight years old, eight or nine with a ski ball at an arcade up
in New Jersey. This is in Cape May. All right, so there
is a video of this. Basically, there's this you see those this woman.
She's getting into some sort of verbal spat with a man who I don't
know if it's the kid's dad or just somebody in this group. And I
don't even know what the beef is, which stand at the ski ball machine.
And then at one point, as the as the dad after talking to
