1
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:45.600
All right, good morning everybody,
and welcome. It's well, normally it

2
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:48.280
would be to halfway point, but
then we really didn't have a Monday,

3
00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:55.880
so I don't know. One twenty
five of this week's efforts getting underway to

4
00:00:55.960 --> 00:01:02.039
day a c O Day radio program
coming up. Hollywood, gonna Hollywood.

5
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:07.400
I don't know what's going on with
this, so we one of the weirdest

6
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:12.920
movie premises I've seen. But Hollywood
is a buzz, so we'll try to

7
00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:21.840
make sense of what's going on there. We got six of the Georgia defendants,

8
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:30.079
including former North Carolina Congressman Mark Meadows, making their initial plea down in

9
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:37.640
Georgia, and Georgia is all about
some Rico stuff. They just found sixty

10
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.879
with sixty one others. He has
sixty one others to be charged under the

11
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:53.840
Ricos statue down there. Some might
argue that it's cover for other stuffs that

12
00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:57.719
they're doing. They're like doll so
you don't think they should use it.

13
00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:00.319
And then for this, I'll let
you be the judge when I explain what

14
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:07.799
they're talking about. How do find
it interesting? Because one could argue that

15
00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:14.800
many other municipalities and states they wanted
to go in this direction for kind of

16
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:22.400
this same stuff might have themselves a
little bit of a roadmap, but probably

17
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:25.840
not. Oh and now I guess
we're officially using the robot murdered dogs for

18
00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:36.000
security, So I can't decide whether
it'll be effective based on the terrifying videos

19
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:44.199
of them running around with oozies and
stuff, or it'll get parted out like

20
00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:50.439
hitchbot did. But we will share
that story for you. It's like I

21
00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:53.360
said last yesterday, Man, it's
just just a crazy week news wise,

22
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:59.560
but we will we will do our
bet. Oh and one of the one

23
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:04.879
of my favorite articles I've read in
a while is piece. It was penned

24
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:12.840
by a family from California, a
formally who decided they were going to move

25
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:19.199
to Texas, but they're gonna move
to Austin, so kind of Texas and

26
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:23.199
it's not living up to their moon
bad expectations. The irony, of course,

27
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:30.240
is they made the move right now. It was a job related move,

28
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:40.439
but they then wrote a whole article
about how Texas sucks. And again,

29
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:46.400
you moved to Austin, so I
don't know that you're getting the full

30
00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:55.039
Texas experience. But also to act
like there's zero difference and then complain about

31
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:59.360
all the stuff that you say you
didn't move away from because of you just

32
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:03.360
had to or job stuff and you
really love. I can't figure out what

33
00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:08.599
the heck's going on with this thing, but we will. We'll touch on

34
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:12.719
that, and then, you know, whatever other news is breaking out there,

35
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:17.959
including race stagic, where we'll just
have a kind of a moment of

36
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:21.759
silence and be like, what happened. Although I did see the new ap

37
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:27.000
pole and Clemson didn't leave the top
twenty five. They are twenty five,

38
00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:32.560
so they're not they haven't been excommunicated
yet. I don't know. Man,

39
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:38.319
Colorado jumps in there pretty deep,
and it's some other weirdness on that,

40
00:04:38.360 --> 00:04:42.839
but that's what people argue about,
and I don't I don't know whether that

41
00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:46.120
thing is really accurate. For the
first about four or five weeks, some

42
00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:56.399
would claim it's never accurate. But
what are you gonna do? Oh yeah,

43
00:04:56.439 --> 00:04:58.199
yeah, yeah, I don't worry. I got a hamster ball guy.

44
00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:04.480
He he's he's been on the show
before and he's from Florida, So

45
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:10.000
we'll leave. Maybe we'll get the
Florida man tune out, but it's it's

46
00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:14.839
not his first rodeo. He's kind
of an angry dude, all right.

47
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:20.240
So that's just a little snippet,
a little teaser if you will, of

48
00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:25.519
what's happening out there. I do
want to start with this though, because

49
00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:30.720
yesterday we did open the show with
a little burning Man discussion. People had

50
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:34.800
a lot of fun over the weekend
with the whole They send it to put

51
00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:36.720
a tweet out and they'd be like, hey, my friend just sent me

52
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:44.439
this picture from burning Man, and
then it's just movie pictures of any movie

53
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:48.439
where somebody is like engulfed in mud
and misery. Right, that's the joke.

54
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:53.079
So it's like a tray you from
never ending story like trying to tug

55
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:57.040
his horse out of the swamp of
sorrows. And I don't know, I

56
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:02.399
got a pretty good chuckle out of
it. Would you ever wonder whose fault

57
00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:09.199
it is that seventy thousand people who
decided to take a what we would refer

58
00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:13.920
to out west as a weather road. They call them weather roads, and

59
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:16.399
they if something is referred to as
a weather road, a lot of times

60
00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:19.360
will be signage on it. And
what they're pointing out is this is a

61
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:27.120
road that exists based on kind of
what the weather's doing. Get a lot

62
00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:29.759
of these in Wyoming, and it
just says, you're on your own.

63
00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:32.879
We don't grade this road. We
don't really do anything. If it really

64
00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:36.680
screws up, maybe somebody will come
in. We had a weather road near

65
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:47.920
us, and basically we had like
a community greater piece of heavy equipment that

66
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:54.680
was co owned by about ten different
ranching outfits. We would use for our

67
00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:58.639
own roads, but we might grade
the weather road and it just you know,

68
00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:01.879
it's just up to that. So
to have a single point of egress

69
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:09.800
for seventy thousand people in an area
that if it does rain it gets real

70
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:16.800
flash floody because it usually doesn't rain
and can obliterate obliterate the road doesn't seem

71
00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:21.480
like the best idea. Now I'm
not knocking it. I found myself literally

72
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:27.959
up in an area in the mountains
before where we had to kind of wade

73
00:07:27.959 --> 00:07:31.319
out the snow because we couldn't get
out of there otherwise just due to the

74
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:36.839
grade of the road and the steepness
of it coming out. And eventually what

75
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:42.399
we had to do is literally back
down part of the road with a winch

76
00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:46.079
around a tree. And even then
we were kind of sliding back and forth.

77
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:48.920
It was a mess, man,
But it was of our own doing.

78
00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:53.319
Now, that was just us.
I think there was three three vehicles

79
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:58.680
at that time, and we just
didn't realize how much snow we were going

80
00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:03.959
to get, but what it was. So the question becomes whose fault is

81
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:13.480
it? Is it those who decided
to use a single point of access in

82
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:18.639
an area where the road could disappear
in a matter of moments or turn into

83
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:26.439
a mud pit? Is it organizers
of burning man? Is it mother nature?

84
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:33.399
Well, luckily the clucking chickens over
at the view they were able to

85
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:37.759
get to the bottom of it yesterday, and I was kind of surprised about

86
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.559
this. This is one of the
many tragedies this this summer h due to

87
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:48.919
climate change. Of these is the
this is the one number one existential problem.

88
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.200
And it rained three months worth over
twenty four hours, So we're not

89
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:54.759
here, Republicans say, which,
by the way, in an area that

90
00:08:54.879 --> 00:09:01.360
gets very very very very very little
rainfall, the number of rainy days a

91
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:07.559
year is very minimal for it to
rain three months worth in twenty four hours,

92
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:13.320
which isn't exactly accurate. That was
a seasonal thing, but it's it's

93
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:20.960
easy because it may only rain once
every three months. You see what I'm

94
00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:24.720
saying. Like, if you were
to say Seattle got three months worth of

95
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:31.200
rain in twenty four hours, that'd
be a big damn deal. Right,

96
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:33.759
doesn't it take place in like a
dry river bed or something? Right,

97
00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:37.759
that's a which would which dry lake
or something? Yeah? Yeah, it

98
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:43.159
is a it is a dry lake. Yeah, pyramid lake. So it's

99
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:48.559
sometimes very rarely is it a lake, But sometimes it's a lake. Like

100
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:52.519
you know, when it rains once
every sometimes a couple of months, or

101
00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:56.879
once a month, or once every
three months. So for it to rain

102
00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:01.039
once every three If it only rains
once every three months and then it rained

103
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:05.960
one day, then you could say
that it rained three months worth of rain

104
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.559
in twenty four hours. But likely
what will happen is that lake two or

105
00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:16.120
three times a year will garner enough
water to kind of appear as a lake.

106
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:22.080
There's a lot of there's a lot
of sometimes lakes, not just in

107
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:26.320
Nevada. Most people don't realize that
when you're on the front range of Colorado,

108
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:33.120
Wyoming and eastern Montana, you're on
you're you're in the desert. It's

109
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:37.039
what is referred to from a topography
standpoint is high desert and it's based on

110
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.080
the rainfall. And I remember driving
through there being like it looks like a

111
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:48.200
palm went off here. Mmmmmmm.
So those those those natural drainages, they

112
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:52.600
exist and you see them and they
look empty, and sometimes they're not.

113
00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.000
I could there's a there's a dozen
places just around where I grew up,

114
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:01.879
and we get significantly more rain than
they do. I'm moistured than they do

115
00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:07.559
in northern Nevada there where there's just
not water, and then when there is

116
00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:11.480
a rainstorm, there's a water.
See. There's a lot in Texas too,

117
00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:16.519
especially West Texas. That's how that's
why people get trapped in a lot

118
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:22.279
of the flooding and stuff, because
they live around there, they move there,

119
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:26.559
or they go to an area very
infrequently, and where there normally isn't

120
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:35.000
a stream, there's there is a
cascade of water. But anyway, all

121
00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:37.639
right, So but I need a
name, Joy, I need a name

122
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:41.279
here that we can put for the
for the villain poster. You got anything,

123
00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:45.039
Oh, it's not man made.
It's not about fossil fuels. You

124
00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:46.639
know, when Trump was president,
all of that went up. The fossil

125
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:52.200
fuels went up and the regulations down
on it. Please don't vote for him.

126
00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:58.559
I'm begging you, get him out
of him. He's so dander But

127
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:03.279
I'm glad you mentioned because it's so
dangerous. It's you know, it's important

128
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:07.480
to keep mentioning and trying to see
how we help the Maui fires. How

129
00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:11.679
you know, the Nia and Florida's
a horrible, horrible lit Wait wait wait,

130
00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:16.240
hold on. See so the first
example you then go to after mentioning

131
00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:20.720
literally what is a lake, albeit
a dry one okay most of the time,

132
00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:30.879
and cut into the cut into the
the topography of riverbeds, which again

133
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:33.120
only acts only work. You know
how, you know how a lot of

134
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:37.159
people end up getting in trouble out
This happened in Utah a lot too.

135
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:46.240
Where they go up there in Utah
they have these amazing canyons of of the

136
00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:52.120
you know, with the deep red
hues and everything. I mean, just

137
00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:58.159
incredible stuff. And there's lots of
videos you can look this up where people

138
00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:01.480
are hiking up them and there may
be a little trickle stream, but the

139
00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:07.840
walls of the canyon going up literally
like ten twenty feet are just this amazing

140
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:11.320
carved sandstone, and there's some I
mean, there's some really cool stuff out

141
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:16.559
there. Arizona has one of the
most famous. And when you're looking at

142
00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:20.960
it, you're like, wow,
that's amazing. But at no point in

143
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:24.960
your head does it go, I
wonder how the sandstone got carved out there.

144
00:13:24.879 --> 00:13:28.440
That's so weird, man. And
then it could be raining, like

145
00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:33.240
fifty miles away, and then people
will be in these canyons and all of

146
00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:41.000
a sudden they have this old crap
moment because here comes a cascade of muddy

147
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:45.679
water. Because it's one of the
few times where where the rains coming.

148
00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:50.120
People have been killed in those scenarios
and horrible. Oh in the Maui fires,

149
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:54.480
I thought that that was man made. I thought we at least agreed

150
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:56.879
on all that. It's like a
nuclear bomb hit that poor place. Yeah,

151
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:01.080
and there are in grease. There
were fires in Italy. Yeah,

152
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:05.720
the Phoenix had a hundred grease.
They arrested what like sixty people for setting

153
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:13.039
the fires. Sixteen degree temperature.
Palm Springs must have been over one hundred.

154
00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:20.240
You ever been to Palm Springs,
which is in the desert. Yeah,

155
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:24.399
yeah, it probably was over a
hundred because that's it's really really hot.

156
00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:30.279
There are drying up. If we
don't have water, we can't exist.

157
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:35.200
Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, all right, because it's not

158
00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:43.200
enough water in the conversation that started
about flooding, what you say the conversation

159
00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:48.320
seems to be all over the place
and not based in reality. But yeah,

160
00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:52.519
but Trump, if you mentioned that, you should be arrested to Trump,

161
00:14:52.639 --> 00:15:00.960
let me look, come on,
uh so I is ross pointed out?

162
00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:07.320
Yes, the which is it on
the water? Which one do you

163
00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:15.559
want? And also it's like this
whole area where again like you're having to

164
00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:20.279
put you're having to like create pretend
you're gonna have to like you can't build

165
00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:22.720
a reservoir. We remember we did
this story. So they're like, ah,

166
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.360
beavers, remember how we used to
like chase them off. Now we're

167
00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:30.559
gonna let them build it because as
if the government, we can't actually build

168
00:15:30.600 --> 00:15:33.200
a reservoir because moonbats lose their mind. But if the beavers do it,

169
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:39.879
then it's not us doing it because
they all know, hey, you know

170
00:15:39.879 --> 00:15:43.519
it'd be a good idea, but
we have this many people reservoirs. Think

171
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:52.639
about it. We'll be back the
show after the show is on the iHeart

172
00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:58.399
Radio app search case O Day or
the podcast on the iHeart Radio app.

173
00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:04.919
What no, why would no?
No? No? People are you know,

174
00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:11.320
people are up and they're trying to
get no. Oh dear god.

175
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:15.679
No oh no, no, no, no no. Why would you retweet

176
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:25.080
that? Oh? Oh dear god. You notice it's in coach too,

177
00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:29.679
so I don't fly with the pores. Man Ross just retweeted a video the

178
00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:33.840
inside of the Are we just calling
it the booplane now or the diarrhea plane?

179
00:16:36.039 --> 00:16:41.240
Uh? That is awful. All
right, we'll be back hang on.

180
00:16:51.480 --> 00:16:56.159
Thank you. Casey is on ninety
four five w PTI and the Triad

181
00:16:56.320 --> 00:17:02.600
and one uh six one FM Talk
in the Triangle. All right, good

182
00:17:02.600 --> 00:17:12.359
morning, six thirty four here on
the case O Day radio program. I

183
00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:15.160
I didn't need to see that video, but if you want to see the

184
00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:22.599
video of the Delta flight from Atlanta
to Barcelona. They were not exaggerating in

185
00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:32.960
the written descriptions that it ran the
length of the plane. I have a

186
00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:38.119
question. So they turned around,
they turned around. They were at least

187
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:45.160
two hours out over international waters.
The total what is the total flight to

188
00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:49.519
Barcelona? Probably what eight hours?
I'm not sure what it is from Atlanta,

189
00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:53.519
so you know they're not a halfway
or anything, but there is significant

190
00:17:53.599 --> 00:18:00.359
distance and everyone wants to get to
Barcelona. And it's not like a fuel

191
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:07.480
issue. And you have to understand
two that they're gonna have at least another

192
00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:11.559
two hours of flying, right,
because they're going back to Atlanta and they're

193
00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:15.720
two hours away, so then it
would be at least half of it.

194
00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:22.599
How do you not just go to
Barcelona? Man? At some point if

195
00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:26.559
you're on there, I mean,
it sucks. Obviously. What you don't

196
00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:30.680
see in that is they're going down
the aisle and it's just devastation. Is

197
00:18:32.400 --> 00:18:37.559
every one of those seats adjacent's the
aisle likely had somebody sitting there who likely

198
00:18:37.599 --> 00:18:41.240
had a bag under the seat in
front of him, because there's you know,

199
00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:44.359
there's never enough overhead space, especially
in a wide body like that.

200
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:48.920
So when I say wide body,
you know you got the got seats on

201
00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:51.279
either side, but you also have
seats in the middles. You end up

202
00:18:51.279 --> 00:18:59.279
with two aisles, never enough overhead
space. So of course, right there's

203
00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:03.000
gonna be some friendly fire on those
bags too, right, And if you're

204
00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:07.559
the whoever that was, can you
imagine getting off the plane and they're like,

205
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:14.440
oh, we lost your luggage,
Jez, and then they find it

206
00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:18.119
it's just covered in poop. Why
wouldn't Why wouldn't be that it would have

207
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:23.000
to make an effort. Man,
Oh, it's just awful. And that

208
00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:26.920
person was just running down the aisle
well, and it looks like they were

209
00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:36.440
running from economy forward And I'm not
sure exactly the eight three fifty on the

210
00:19:36.480 --> 00:19:42.200
wide body what the laboratories look like. But if they're running forward, were

211
00:19:42.200 --> 00:19:47.240
they running to the first class business
class labatory because those are not for coach.

212
00:19:48.119 --> 00:19:52.279
They clearly state that no pores allowed. It's why they have that little

213
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:59.119
curtain. So they were trying to
break the rules. Man. I'm like,

214
00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:02.359
whenever I go in playing, I'm
super conscious about like what I'm gonna

215
00:20:02.359 --> 00:20:06.279
eat and stuff because I don't want
like the bubble gut and I don't want

216
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:11.319
to you know. I'm just you
know, I'm you know, I can't

217
00:20:11.400 --> 00:20:15.079
want to be the person us having
to use lavatory and yeah, like aggressive

218
00:20:15.079 --> 00:20:17.839
manner, and I care about my
fellow passengers, right, I'm trying to

219
00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:19.119
be you know, I'm trying to
think of them and I don't want like,

220
00:20:21.079 --> 00:20:25.599
you know that stench, Like I
don't want any gastinal intestinal problems because

221
00:20:25.720 --> 00:20:27.240
you see that picture, like,
oh my man, that's gross, but

222
00:20:27.319 --> 00:20:33.200
just imagine the stench. Oh yeah, and close space. You know.

223
00:20:33.559 --> 00:20:34.720
I told you, like when last
times it was on a plane, there's

224
00:20:34.759 --> 00:20:40.000
some dude who the moment, like
you hear the ding at ten thousand and

225
00:20:40.039 --> 00:20:45.519
you are already this dude is racing
for the bathroom and then he's in there

226
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:49.759
for a while and you just when
he comes out, you just know what's

227
00:20:49.839 --> 00:20:55.079
up. And it was confirmed when
I saw another woman then walk into it

228
00:20:55.759 --> 00:21:03.079
and uh come out looking like she
just stumbled upon like you know, under

229
00:21:03.119 --> 00:21:07.160
the floorboards of Dahmer's house, right, and they're like, you know what,

230
00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:11.079
i'ma I'll be I'm gonna be fine
for a while. I still had

231
00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:17.039
like hours of flight time left.
But at least that dude made it,

232
00:21:17.119 --> 00:21:25.839
you know what I'm saying. So
I don't know what's up gives new meaning

233
00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:27.839
to explosive, No, it,
I don't think it gives new meaning.

234
00:21:27.920 --> 00:21:32.240
I think it literally is the definition
of it. But you're right though,

235
00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:34.079
that makeup plane like the next day
or whatever, Like you can't get on

236
00:21:34.119 --> 00:21:37.559
that plane if you're that prob if
you're that person, yeah, because everybody

237
00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:41.720
knows you. Now now you have
to get on another flight. You're like

238
00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:45.759
charting a boat to go and wherever. You're like a bus or whatever.

239
00:21:45.920 --> 00:21:48.440
I'm not getting on a plane now. You use the Remember the boat Gretta

240
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:52.400
took over, right, She's like, Oh, I'm gonna go Green,

241
00:21:52.440 --> 00:21:55.319
I'm gonna take a boat over when
you came over to like where was it

242
00:21:55.359 --> 00:21:57.559
South America or whatever? Yeah,
except it was a boat crewed by like

243
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:00.720
six people who then had to lie
home. You're like, at this point,

244
00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:04.440
I'll even I'll rent a bouncy house
and go across. I'm not getting

245
00:22:04.440 --> 00:22:12.839
on a plane. What do you
think they ate? Probably Carrabas, But

246
00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:17.359
it's what did Carrabas ever due to
you? I mean, listen, it's

247
00:22:17.359 --> 00:22:19.960
just my opinion. I prefer olive
garden, Okay, authentic Italian cuisine.

248
00:22:19.960 --> 00:22:22.720
The chefs are trained in Tuscany.
Man. I know you've mentioned when you're

249
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:26.799
there your family. Yes, you
know. What's funny is now all I'm

250
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:30.400
getting on social media? We're watching
what are we watching? We were watching

251
00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:34.480
that Robert Pattinson Batman movie and we're
getting like targeted ads and stuff or whatever

252
00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:38.400
before and like everything, Now all
my targeted ads are for olive Garden.

253
00:22:38.839 --> 00:22:42.559
What a waste? Like they got
you. It's hilarious, Like what what

254
00:22:42.599 --> 00:22:45.519
do they need to spend? Alive
Garden didn't have to spend a red scent

255
00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:51.440
on marketing to you. That's just
like y'all should be paying me. This

256
00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:55.640
was wasted dollars. Man. That's
like going to like NC State's tail game,

257
00:22:55.759 --> 00:22:57.279
being like, who's I love to
tell you about the wolf pack?

258
00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:03.960
But we're sitting, you know,
we're watching the show and the ad starts

259
00:23:04.079 --> 00:23:07.359
and we Marky and I just look
at each other. We just started laughing.

260
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:11.119
Well, like this guy loves olive
Garden. Well maybe it's because you

261
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:15.519
were like posting pictures of olive garden. You did your whole thing with olive

262
00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:22.200
Garden. So Carrabas is your leading
suspect there. Do they have a Carrabas

263
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:26.599
in the in the Atlanta Airport?
Maybe I don't, Maybe they do.

264
00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:33.720
I don't know the big old airport
that or there's a place in Have you

265
00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:37.680
ever been a runsa runs? It
would make more sense considering the name is

266
00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:41.079
runs a yeah, no, no, no, No, it's an Italian

267
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:47.079
restaurant. It's it's it's an Italian
drive through restaurant Omaha, Nebraska. Okay,

268
00:23:47.119 --> 00:23:52.079
I don't think I'm near in the
Midwest. Is it is? It?

269
00:23:52.119 --> 00:23:56.200
Is? It not of Olive Garden
quality? It is not. But

270
00:23:56.240 --> 00:23:57.680
if you're looking for like a good
drive through, like a taco like the

271
00:23:57.720 --> 00:24:03.000
Taco Bell of Ohod like that.
Yeah, okay, so they're gonna say

272
00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:04.799
you can go to Olive Garden.
You don't have to get out of your

273
00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:08.480
car. They bring the food to
you. You got parking spots and everything.

274
00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:11.359
Drive through you like, you go
up to the window and you're like,

275
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:17.160
give me a basket of spaghetti or
whatever. That's just that sounds really

276
00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:19.359
messy to eat in your car,
especially if it's one of those baskets that

277
00:24:19.440 --> 00:24:23.400
has all the little events on it. But I'm not in the drive through

278
00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:27.160
Italian business. So what are you
gonna do? All right? Well,

279
00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:30.680
whatever they ate, man, it
didn't. It didn't agree with him,

280
00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:40.519
not at all. That is that
is horrific right there. Yeah, you're

281
00:24:40.559 --> 00:24:42.960
not on the next plane. You're
not on any plane. I I mean,

282
00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:47.000
they're probably not gonna kick you off
because it's not like you're meant to

283
00:24:47.079 --> 00:24:52.319
do that. But still, and
that's the other thing too, Even if

284
00:24:52.319 --> 00:24:55.880
you're not gonna get on the next
plane, you had to then spend two

285
00:24:55.960 --> 00:25:02.119
hours on that plane with everybody knowing
who you are, straight up knowing who

286
00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:07.480
you are. This is also why
even and I almost never never check luggage.

287
00:25:07.559 --> 00:25:15.160
I don't care where I'm going.
I can perfect I can perfectly easily

288
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:18.920
travel. How long was I in
Columbia, Ecuador? A week and a

289
00:25:18.920 --> 00:25:22.920
half plus, I'm out on an
island and I'm doing all that stuff I

290
00:25:22.960 --> 00:25:26.920
had. I had the big way
carry on, the biggest one carry on

291
00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:30.960
you can get. Don't check luggage, however, I do that, and

292
00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:36.319
then I have my backpack is what
I travel with, and in the backpack,

293
00:25:36.599 --> 00:25:38.720
away from the rest of the luggage, I will have one change of

294
00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:45.000
clothes on the off off, off
chance I get gate checked or I just

295
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:48.599
can't access it, and I just
like you got it. You gotta pull

296
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:52.920
one pair of pants and one T
shirt and some underwear and just stick it

297
00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:55.839
in, stick it in your backpack
there. Yeah, No checking baggage is

298
00:25:55.880 --> 00:25:59.119
the absolute worst. And then you've
got to worry about them losing your stuff,

299
00:25:59.119 --> 00:26:02.359
which is happening to be for New
York. Like you're at your destination,

300
00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:03.759
you have to wait like four or
five days from then the send your

301
00:26:03.839 --> 00:26:07.400
stuff or like even just getting off
the plane. At that point, I

302
00:26:07.440 --> 00:26:10.920
want to go. I don't want
to stand at the stupid carousel and wait

303
00:26:10.960 --> 00:26:15.640
for my bag. Right, No, I'm with you, man, Like

304
00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:18.039
last time I went home to New
York, like two pair of jeans,

305
00:26:18.759 --> 00:26:22.960
four T shirts, and like pajamas
and that was it. And you didn't

306
00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:26.359
even wear all of it. I
didn't. I'm always kicking myself because I'll

307
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:32.359
pack and then I'll be like,
h I didn't even wear all this stuff.

308
00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:37.920
Could have totally left more space.
But yeah, you never know.

309
00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:42.440
You could eat at a Carrabos or
Runza then, you know, dear God.

310
00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:47.240
Yeah, but I think once you're
a certain distance, you just gotta

311
00:26:47.279 --> 00:26:49.759
suck it up get to because like
the hassle over it, because I mean,

312
00:26:49.759 --> 00:26:56.079
I understand the smell, but eventually
you just you want to get to

313
00:26:56.119 --> 00:26:59.240
where you're going. And it sounds
like we weren't able to get on a

314
00:26:59.240 --> 00:27:03.319
plane for another eight hours after they
landed, so you know, you got

315
00:27:03.400 --> 00:27:07.079
half a day and if you got
something going on. That sucks, man.

316
00:27:08.079 --> 00:27:11.359
I remember one of the times I
went over to Ireland, we were

317
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:17.519
supposed to meet a group for it
weren't traveling and one of those big group

318
00:27:17.559 --> 00:27:21.480
things with all the buses. I
mean, God help me. But part

319
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:26.880
of what I was doing in Dublin
was it was a tour of the Guinness

320
00:27:26.920 --> 00:27:30.279
thing and the Jamison Distillery and a
few others, and so we bought this

321
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:34.160
whole thing and it took place over
two days and then you did some stuff

322
00:27:34.160 --> 00:27:37.559
and then the rest of it kind
of on your own. And I wanted

323
00:27:37.599 --> 00:27:40.200
to kick it off there and it
was it was much easier just to do

324
00:27:40.240 --> 00:27:44.920
it as part of this. And
got totally hosed trying to go through Newark

325
00:27:45.720 --> 00:27:48.279
and we got there and it was
just it was a whole thing. It

326
00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:49.440
was a whole nightmare, man,
just to try to meet up with the

327
00:27:49.480 --> 00:27:55.079
group, and then hadn't properly slept, and and then you're at the Guinness

328
00:27:55.160 --> 00:27:56.880
thing and you're in this big have
you ever been in the Guinness brewery?

329
00:27:56.920 --> 00:28:02.079
They had like this big ufo tower
above the brewery where after you go through

330
00:28:02.079 --> 00:28:04.440
it, they give you like a
rock or a stone and then that's your

331
00:28:04.480 --> 00:28:07.799
currency in this bar so you can
go drink a delicious guinness and stare out

332
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:14.279
over at all the construction cranes of
Dublin. And a time we showed up

333
00:28:15.359 --> 00:28:19.799
to the Guinness thing, they had
done the whole tour of the Guinness Brewery

334
00:28:21.279 --> 00:28:23.400
and it was just that part.
So I'm like there and I'm like trying

335
00:28:23.400 --> 00:28:26.240
to talk to it. I'm like, no, I gotta meet the group

336
00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:29.960
because we were going right from there
over the Jamison thing, and I'm like,

337
00:28:29.960 --> 00:28:32.920
I gotta meet the group and they're
up over there. I need by

338
00:28:32.920 --> 00:28:34.880
stone because I had actually been on
a tour once before, so I kind

339
00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:40.920
of knew what was up. And
that's no fun. Didn't get a chance

340
00:28:40.960 --> 00:28:44.480
to even go to the hotel and
unpack and do anything. It was just

341
00:28:45.920 --> 00:28:49.720
you're going to Barcelona, man,
which is a which is a beautiful city,

342
00:28:49.839 --> 00:28:53.440
but obviously you're going there for fun
and frivolity, the big party city.

343
00:28:53.480 --> 00:28:56.359
They do a similar thing too when
you go to the top of the

344
00:28:56.359 --> 00:29:00.519
boone big Beer. Okay, but
instead of a coin to give you like

345
00:29:00.519 --> 00:29:03.799
the tag you know, and it
can snap, it's a stone, right,

346
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:07.240
yeah, like a pebble. I'm
sorry to give you a what you

347
00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:11.640
know, you know the tab when
you open up a cand of beer and

348
00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:12.759
just rip it off. Yeah,
it's like one of those instead of a

349
00:29:12.759 --> 00:29:15.319
coin at the top of the boom
Big Beer. Yeah, this top of

350
00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:19.119
the boom Big Beer. Does it
spin like the holiday in downtown Raleigh used

351
00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:25.480
to with the restaurant before COVID.
It did okay, but they stopped it.

352
00:29:25.519 --> 00:29:26.960
They said for some reason, like
the spinning of the top of it

353
00:29:26.960 --> 00:29:30.240
would spread COVID more it was stupid. Well, our people get sick and

354
00:29:30.279 --> 00:29:34.119
they have asive, you know,
the top of the boom Big Beer.

355
00:29:36.599 --> 00:29:37.799
I mean, I can make these
jokes because it's not a real place,

356
00:29:37.839 --> 00:29:42.119
but holy cow, that would be
horrible if it was sor right, six

357
00:29:42.359 --> 00:29:51.799
forty seven coming up? Uh So, yesterday the White House honored a Vietnam

358
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:56.519
War vet. This guy's story is
pretty incredible. This Larry Taylor, like

359
00:29:56.880 --> 00:30:00.359
the whole I remember watching even before
he got this. I remember watching one

360
00:30:00.400 --> 00:30:06.200
of the YouTubers that kind of does
these history stories talking about this whole thing

361
00:30:06.279 --> 00:30:11.480
with a retired captain Larry Taylor,
and he's from Tennessee and basically he went

362
00:30:11.559 --> 00:30:19.359
full rambo man trying to rescue four
soldiers who were basically the command had been

363
00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:22.920
like, Nah, those guys are
done for. There's nothing we can do.

364
00:30:22.960 --> 00:30:25.599
And He's like, I don't know. I got a helicopter and a

365
00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:29.440
death wish. I'm gonna do this
thing. It's a pretty incredible story,

366
00:30:29.880 --> 00:30:36.000
although some are saying there was a
little there were some protocol issues on the

367
00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:38.279
part of the White House, specifically, you know, the president, I'll

368
00:30:38.359 --> 00:30:41.960
let you be the judge. We'll
get that story coming up. Case O

369
00:30:41.079 --> 00:30:55.359
Day Radio program, Thank you,
CAPTI in the Triad and one oh six

370
00:30:55.480 --> 00:31:00.279
one FM Talk in the Triangle.
All right, now, am I the

371
00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:07.079
end all the all arbiter on presidential
decorum? I am not, don't I

372
00:31:07.079 --> 00:31:11.960
don't know all the rules. And
I also understand too that sometimes you're gonna

373
00:31:11.960 --> 00:31:17.599
have an event that's going on,
and some it could be the president,

374
00:31:17.680 --> 00:31:21.000
could be, the governor, could
be whoever. They may dip into part

375
00:31:21.000 --> 00:31:23.720
of the event and leave due to
scheduling or security or whatever it is.

376
00:31:25.880 --> 00:31:30.519
However, there's a few things I
feel like you got to have your head

377
00:31:30.519 --> 00:31:36.119
in the game for the totality of
it. Like remember when they were offloading

378
00:31:36.160 --> 00:31:40.599
the coffins of the thirteen US service
members killed during the withdrawal of Afghanistan,

379
00:31:41.319 --> 00:31:51.079
and Biden looks over at his watch, which is somewhat is somewhat kind of

380
00:31:51.079 --> 00:31:53.960
reaction to people might do if they're
uncomfortable. And I guess I would feel

381
00:31:55.000 --> 00:32:00.319
a little uncomfortable if I botched that
and thirteen people were dead. But still

382
00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:02.640
it's not good optics. And when
you're at that level, you kind of

383
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:13.119
have to know. So when you're
doing the Medal of Honor ceremony, which

384
00:32:13.240 --> 00:32:17.480
you know you may do a couple
of times during your presidency, I feel

385
00:32:17.480 --> 00:32:25.519
like you gotta stay for the whole
thing, especially when you consider and it's

386
00:32:25.599 --> 00:32:30.839
not a posthumous thing where you've got
the guy in the room like this guy.

387
00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:37.200
Larry Taylor, retired captain served in
Vietnam from nineteen sixty seven to nineteen

388
00:32:37.279 --> 00:32:45.839
sixty eight, ran two thousand combat
missions. He was the leader of a

389
00:32:45.960 --> 00:32:52.079
helicopter lightfire support team during the two
thousand combat missions. Is documented to have

390
00:32:52.160 --> 00:33:00.440
come under fire three hundred and forty
times. So he's there eighteen months and

391
00:33:00.519 --> 00:33:08.960
he shot at every other day,
and then when he actually see the mental

392
00:33:09.000 --> 00:33:13.000
honor of honor for and I'll give
you the short story on it, but

393
00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:20.359
it's it's it's insane. Basically,
in June of sixty eight, during a

394
00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:25.799
battle of up Goo Kung, Taylor
was leader of the light fire support team

395
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:30.359
and they were tasked with helping four
soldiers who had been surrounded by the enemy

396
00:33:30.519 --> 00:33:37.240
during the reconnaissance mission and we're taking
heavy fire and Taylor and another helicopter provided

397
00:33:37.279 --> 00:33:42.319
air support for the soldiers. Eventually
they started to run out of AMMO and

398
00:33:42.359 --> 00:33:45.839
they were left to scout out an
escape route for the team. So now

399
00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:50.559
they're just doing you know, from
the air of visuals, and so he

400
00:33:50.599 --> 00:33:54.920
does that. He literally is coming
back to base and he finds out because

401
00:33:54.920 --> 00:33:59.279
it was sending another a huey end
to pull these guys out. He found

402
00:33:59.359 --> 00:34:01.880
out that the command scrapped the huey. They said, look, there's just

403
00:34:04.400 --> 00:34:09.119
there's too much fire coming in.
They're all probably dead. We're not going

404
00:34:09.199 --> 00:34:15.119
to send other personnel in there.
And he just went effort. He's gotten

405
00:34:15.119 --> 00:34:20.360
almost no AMMO, he's got almost
no fuel, and he's just like,

406
00:34:20.440 --> 00:34:24.199
yeah, we're gonna go get him. And he did. They reached the

407
00:34:24.280 --> 00:34:29.199
site, he landed, and just
even though he's getting fired at and just

408
00:34:29.280 --> 00:34:35.480
took off, running control, trying
climbs aboard. The whole thing is it's

409
00:34:35.480 --> 00:34:39.079
a Rambo movie, like he was
just sent in to take pictures and the

410
00:34:39.119 --> 00:34:44.000
president, after doing it, just
abruptly left the ceremony. Yesterday. It

411
00:34:44.079 --> 00:35:27.800
was so weird. All right,
I've been wanting everybody happy Wednesday, seven

412
00:35:27.840 --> 00:35:35.519
out six year on the PCO Day
radio program. Oh that's right, No,

413
00:35:35.719 --> 00:35:38.679
uh no, Mark Robinson a day
right. Ross normally would chat with

414
00:35:38.760 --> 00:35:45.960
him in the third hour. What
was did he give a reason you gotta

415
00:35:46.079 --> 00:35:52.480
give? You got a thing he's
doing? Or Ross is trying to eat

416
00:35:52.519 --> 00:35:55.920
stuff so we're bugging him. Did
you think it's a debate. I'm kidding.

417
00:35:55.920 --> 00:36:00.280
It's a joke. I'm kidding.
I'm kid it's a joke. Some

418
00:36:00.360 --> 00:36:07.280
of Robinson's opponents are unhappy because he
won't debate. He's basically he's he's adopted

419
00:36:07.320 --> 00:36:08.519
the Ted bud bottle, where he's
like, I'm so far ahead? Why

420
00:36:08.519 --> 00:36:15.480
should I which worked for for Ted? So any who? But are we

421
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:19.320
gonna get him next week? Or
is he just like I can't do this

422
00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:22.119
week and we'll catch him in two
weeks. We might be able to move

423
00:36:22.159 --> 00:36:24.840
it. Yeah, Okay, I
didn't see. I don't know the extent

424
00:36:24.880 --> 00:36:28.400
of your conversation. You just said
he's not on Yeah, this guy,

425
00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:32.039
pat Riley contacted me yesterday some about
all the fame coach pat right, No,

426
00:36:32.039 --> 00:36:35.239
no, who By the way,
I went to my high school in

427
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:37.159
our gymnasium is named after but no, oh, that's right, different guy.

428
00:36:37.480 --> 00:36:40.159
Yeah, okay, something to do
with the Board of Education. This

429
00:36:42.480 --> 00:36:45.119
boy, yeah, he does sit
on that as a lieutenant governor. So

430
00:36:46.480 --> 00:36:50.000
all right, we'll catch up to
that. I wanted to ask him about

431
00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:54.280
a few things. There's some uh
and and uh. They had they had

432
00:36:54.280 --> 00:36:59.800
a little pressure yesterday and some folks
gathered. It's really interesting to watch the

433
00:37:02.159 --> 00:37:09.159
folks up in Rockingham County. Over
all this U casino stuff there is there

434
00:37:09.239 --> 00:37:15.079
is a significant contingent of folks who
are not pleased with the idea of casino

435
00:37:15.320 --> 00:37:22.079
finding its way up to Rockingham County. And you know that is technically our

436
00:37:22.199 --> 00:37:30.280
w PTI station of License Tower area
is you know, that's Rockingham County.

437
00:37:30.360 --> 00:37:32.719
So I'm just I'm curious. Obviously, you got you got lawmakers that are

438
00:37:32.800 --> 00:37:37.920
happy they're sitting there looking at the
cash infusion, and let's face it,

439
00:37:37.960 --> 00:37:40.039
they've had a tough goal of it, from the from the beer plant closing

440
00:37:40.079 --> 00:37:45.400
down to some other stuff. And
the sheriff there we talked to kind of

441
00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:52.960
on the regular. So I'm a
lot of mixed emotions up there, and

442
00:37:53.199 --> 00:37:58.079
I don't know. Look, I
don't I don't live in Rockingham County.

443
00:37:58.719 --> 00:38:00.119
Obviously, we broadcast there. We
tell you we have a lot of fine

444
00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:07.639
folks who listen from the area.
Is it. Where are people's heads at

445
00:38:07.719 --> 00:38:12.360
on that? I mean, I
understand there's people who hold press conferences,

446
00:38:12.400 --> 00:38:14.400
and there's other people who are like, yeah, let's go ahead and do

447
00:38:14.480 --> 00:38:16.400
this thing. It seems like Burger
is a big fan of it, But

448
00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:22.840
what is what is the average Joe? Maybe just maybe you're just like,

449
00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:25.159
oh, it'd be nice to advocacino
over there, or I don't want all

450
00:38:25.159 --> 00:38:28.719
the stuff that comes with it.
However, you know, one of the

451
00:38:28.760 --> 00:38:31.840
things they talk about coming with it
outside of just the traditional gambling addiction and

452
00:38:31.880 --> 00:38:37.599
things like that, or you know, drug use being a problem, but

453
00:38:37.639 --> 00:38:44.239
mess already kind of a problem.
So maybe some of that financial revenue provides

454
00:38:44.320 --> 00:38:49.960
more resources. I don't know.
I admittedly I don't have I don't have

455
00:38:50.000 --> 00:38:53.679
an opinion, really hard opinion either
way. I can kind of see both

456
00:38:53.679 --> 00:39:00.679
sides. But if you're Rockingham County, you don't even have to travel that

457
00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:04.199
far if you want to go to
a casino to go up to the new

458
00:39:04.199 --> 00:39:07.360
one up in Virginia. So we
can take calls on that. What the

459
00:39:07.400 --> 00:39:10.800
hey eight eight eight nine three four
seven eight seven four. We'll throw that

460
00:39:10.840 --> 00:39:16.960
into the hopper today, but we'll
we'll maybe pick his brain on that coming

461
00:39:17.039 --> 00:39:29.280
up next time we have him on, because it tis curious. Let's see,

462
00:39:29.280 --> 00:39:30.559
I know, let's see. I
thought, well, Mark Walker was

463
00:39:30.559 --> 00:39:32.639
part of that presser, so I
don't think he's a fan of it.

464
00:39:32.760 --> 00:39:37.280
So I know where he's at.
I don't know where our state treasurer and

465
00:39:37.320 --> 00:39:39.320
all those folks are, but I
suspect it might become a bit of a

466
00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:45.360
campaign issue too, although we really
have Mark on not for campaign issues just

467
00:39:45.519 --> 00:39:52.039
due to equal time stuff, but
more lieutenant governor stuff. But like I

468
00:39:52.079 --> 00:39:53.280
said, we can throw that in
the hopper. People went awigh in on

469
00:39:53.320 --> 00:39:57.960
that eight eight eight nine three four
seven eight seven four, especially folks who

470
00:39:58.000 --> 00:40:02.880
live up in Rockingham County. You're
down with it. I mean, it's

471
00:40:02.880 --> 00:40:07.440
not gonna be a plethora of high
paying jobs, but there's some good ones

472
00:40:07.480 --> 00:40:13.039
in there. Plus to get to
work with Robert de Niro, that's a

473
00:40:13.039 --> 00:40:20.320
big deal, right, even if
he has like his titles always changing head

474
00:40:20.360 --> 00:40:22.760
of catering, all the different stuff, you know, to thwart the licensing

475
00:40:22.840 --> 00:40:30.480
board. Don't get in a car
with him, by the way, I

476
00:40:30.480 --> 00:40:34.000
don't know if you know that,
dude. It's a nice car. It

477
00:40:34.079 --> 00:40:37.639
was a really nice cause you see
his parking spot, like right there at

478
00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:43.199
the entry. Yeah, yeah,
at his top batch man. But you

479
00:40:43.239 --> 00:40:45.960
know, if you don't sink the
charges, what are you even doing?

480
00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:53.679
Rook Hey, just to be clear, Casey, we're not happy about it

481
00:40:53.719 --> 00:40:55.840
in Nash County. Yeah, I
know I should point that out to It

482
00:40:57.000 --> 00:41:00.800
was kind of talking about rocking him
because they had the the citizens gathering yesterday.

483
00:41:01.519 --> 00:41:06.599
But no, we're talking about several
casinos different places. See again,

484
00:41:06.719 --> 00:41:09.400
I don't I don't know. So
if you're not happy about it down there,

485
00:41:09.440 --> 00:41:17.719
why not Nash County. Obviously there's
there's more people, but that means

486
00:41:17.719 --> 00:41:24.519
there's also other alternative industry, and
I don't know, I do find it

487
00:41:24.599 --> 00:41:30.159
interesting. The media is very unhappy
about it because of like five thousand dollars

488
00:41:30.199 --> 00:41:35.679
campaign donations by several interests. Here
here's my thing, though, it's like

489
00:41:35.760 --> 00:41:40.320
anything else they're talking about maybe legalizing, it's I see this this path,

490
00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:45.079
whether it's like the sports book stuff, right, sports gambling stuff. They're

491
00:41:45.079 --> 00:41:46.880
like, all right, but we're
only gonna let you know, a handful

492
00:41:46.920 --> 00:41:50.320
of people do it. And then
you just kind of know the fixes in

493
00:41:51.599 --> 00:41:54.880
Like you know, Ross and I
couldn't start at casino, right because we

494
00:41:54.880 --> 00:41:58.719
don't have the lobbying efforts, the
infrastructure, any of that. But we

495
00:41:58.760 --> 00:42:02.480
couldn't. We couldn't know and you
know our own Biff Tannen style up,

496
00:42:02.800 --> 00:42:08.280
you know, pleasure Palace, right, We're not We're not We're not tight

497
00:42:08.320 --> 00:42:13.400
in enough. And you see that
anytime you see governments kind of deciding that

498
00:42:13.400 --> 00:42:15.719
they're going to expand this stuff,
like in Colorado when they first launched,

499
00:42:15.719 --> 00:42:19.000
they're like, all right, just
gonna be a handful of you, and

500
00:42:19.039 --> 00:42:22.880
it just happens to be all of
our friends who are actually gonna be able

501
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:28.239
to do it. And then they
quickly realized there that when you do that

502
00:42:28.480 --> 00:42:31.000
and you limit it and then you
tax it, that all of the people

503
00:42:31.000 --> 00:42:35.199
who are still doing it illegally.
They're just going to continue to operate because

504
00:42:35.199 --> 00:42:40.360
they're offering a cheaper product. They're
not in your little tax structure, and

505
00:42:40.400 --> 00:42:44.039
they got edged out and they're just
like, screw it, I'm gonna do

506
00:42:44.079 --> 00:42:51.280
this anyway. So yeah, just
uh, there's a lot going on there,

507
00:42:52.079 --> 00:42:55.880
just saying all right. So anyway, I was mentioning that yesterday you

508
00:42:55.960 --> 00:43:04.960
had the Medal of Honor ceremony this
Vietnam. That helicopter pilot some soldiers pinned

509
00:43:04.960 --> 00:43:07.360
down. They think all is lost. He actually thinks they're coming back to

510
00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:14.920
rescue these dudes. He finds out
they're not. Turns out helicopter around and

511
00:43:15.840 --> 00:43:20.320
with limited AMMO and almost no fuel, goes right in there. He was

512
00:43:20.360 --> 00:43:24.320
told just to take pictures. He
didn't give a crap man, and he

513
00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:36.519
spent most of his days in Vietnam
taking fire, and he didn't care.

514
00:43:36.519 --> 00:43:43.119
He said, I'm not leaving these
guys behind, just the stones, you

515
00:43:43.159 --> 00:43:46.920
know what I'm saying. So this
guy went through this eighteen months of hell,

516
00:43:47.079 --> 00:43:52.199
three hundred forty days under fire over
the course of eighteen months, put

517
00:43:52.280 --> 00:44:00.119
himself in in almost u sure life
ending danger, and somehow I was able

518
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:08.400
to prevail you stay for the whole
ceremony, is what I'm saying, if

519
00:44:08.440 --> 00:44:15.840
you're the president of the United States. But unfortunately he did not, and

520
00:44:16.000 --> 00:44:22.280
some people are wondering, what's what
was up with that? Why would you

521
00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:27.760
walk out? So he did the
obviously the photo op part of it,

522
00:44:27.840 --> 00:44:30.880
where he is uh, you know
he's uh was a pinning the medal,

523
00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:37.000
but he's providing the metal, uh, poking it around the captain's neck.

524
00:44:37.599 --> 00:44:40.480
Larry Taylor, by the way,
from where is he from? He's from

525
00:44:40.519 --> 00:44:50.559
West or from eastern Tennessee, right. And I don't know if you've known

526
00:44:50.599 --> 00:44:55.840
this, there's there's been some rough
optics surrounding this, uh, this president

527
00:44:57.000 --> 00:45:01.760
and the military lately. But you
had the stories of the gold Star families

528
00:45:01.800 --> 00:45:07.679
who were just like, you need
to stop talking to us. This is

529
00:45:07.000 --> 00:45:10.599
crazy. Like the conversations he was
having. You had that one dude who

530
00:45:12.920 --> 00:45:15.480
who was lying and he you know, he's lying in recovery at Walter Read

531
00:45:15.719 --> 00:45:19.920
his arm is gone. The President
is trying to shake that hand and then

532
00:45:20.000 --> 00:45:28.840
like gets down. It's just like, what do you want? You had

533
00:45:28.880 --> 00:45:31.559
all this stuff going on, you
stay for the Medal of Honors ceremony.

534
00:45:34.199 --> 00:45:38.320
Biden abruptly left the ceremony after fastening
the nation's highest military decoration around the neck

535
00:45:38.320 --> 00:45:46.280
of retired Army Captain Larry Taylor,
military veterans, slamming by and afterward arguing

536
00:45:46.320 --> 00:45:52.039
the commander in chief showed a startling
lack of respect part in my French.

537
00:45:52.199 --> 00:46:02.639
But what a I can't read that
I'd have to go back. Did the

538
00:46:02.679 --> 00:46:07.280
presidents always stay for the totality of
it because there's a closing there's a closing

539
00:46:07.400 --> 00:46:15.440
prayer, so they do it.
Then there's some more comments, there's some

540
00:46:15.519 --> 00:46:19.000
photos, and then there's a couple
other things. It's a it's not a

541
00:46:19.000 --> 00:46:23.760
ton of time after And what also
was interesting is the White House provides an

542
00:46:23.760 --> 00:46:31.039
official feed of the event, and
when the president leaves, they cut the

543
00:46:31.119 --> 00:46:37.119
feed, so anyone who was pulling
the video of the event, they didn't

544
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:43.760
even see the rest of the chaplain's
benediction. Because the president leaves the room,

545
00:46:43.760 --> 00:46:46.440
they cut the feed, so anyone
who was watching it via the White

546
00:46:46.440 --> 00:46:53.719
House stream they didn't even get to
see the whole event, So it became

547
00:46:53.920 --> 00:47:04.719
incredibly noticeable. All told, the
captain took in forty five minutes of intense

548
00:47:04.800 --> 00:47:13.960
ground fire as he had went back
in to extract the US Patrol group the

549
00:47:14.320 --> 00:47:19.159
rescue, something that had never been
accomplished or even attempted over the course of

550
00:47:19.239 --> 00:47:23.119
war. Showed a complete disregard for
his personal safety. This is part of

551
00:47:23.159 --> 00:47:32.960
the actual proclamation. Just craziness,
man, but like in a good way.

552
00:47:34.039 --> 00:47:36.679
Like you have to ask yourself in
that situation, because you're in a

553
00:47:36.760 --> 00:47:39.679
helicopter. You you've left the area, you're not getting shot at anymore,

554
00:47:40.760 --> 00:47:45.840
you're being told really not to go
back in there. You've got basically no

555
00:47:45.960 --> 00:47:52.719
ammo, you don't really have enough
fuel, and yet you still make that

556
00:47:52.800 --> 00:47:58.280
decision to dive right back into it. And you'd like to hope that that's

557
00:47:58.320 --> 00:48:00.679
the decision others would make in that
situation, but a lot of folks wouldn't.

558
00:48:05.599 --> 00:48:08.960
And actually, the larger telling of
the story, we're trying to have

559
00:48:09.039 --> 00:48:13.039
all of that in front of me
of this video I watched is pretty crazy

560
00:48:13.079 --> 00:48:20.719
because you you realize just how doomed
this whole thing was. But he didn't

561
00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:23.440
care, all right, eight eight
eight nine three four seven eight seven four.

562
00:48:23.480 --> 00:48:28.280
So we get into that casinos stuff, you name it, coming up

563
00:48:28.679 --> 00:48:31.400
a little Hollywood and sanity. We
got to get to and Florida Man.

564
00:48:32.000 --> 00:48:39.320
Well not just Florida Man. We
got Florida man and Florida wildlife which is

565
00:48:40.039 --> 00:48:44.480
very Florida man esque. We'll have
those stories in your calls coming up here

566
00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:49.400
on the case O Day Radio program. This is one oh six one FM

567
00:48:49.480 --> 00:48:53.639
Talk in the Triangle and nearest Talk
ninety four five w PTI in the Triad.

568
00:49:02.079 --> 00:49:06.800
All right, good morning and welcome
back. It is six twenty six

569
00:49:07.199 --> 00:49:15.119
here on the case O Day Radio
program. Alrighty we got some Florida We

570
00:49:15.119 --> 00:49:17.440
got some Florida stories. In fact, let me let me do this and

571
00:49:17.760 --> 00:49:20.840
we'll get one maybe two, and
then if now, we'll get the other

572
00:49:20.880 --> 00:49:29.039
one after the break. Yep,
Florida Man, Florida mans. Something in

573
00:49:29.079 --> 00:49:31.800
the water, the air or scent
that makes you do all that crazy crap.

574
00:49:31.880 --> 00:49:37.039
It's like the state is one week
done ass trap. Nowhere else has

575
00:49:37.079 --> 00:49:43.960
the Florida Man. It is almost
like as the Weird Factor climbs, you'll

576
00:49:44.000 --> 00:49:50.800
find out it happened in Florida every
time. Florida Man, Florida Man.

577
00:49:50.880 --> 00:49:52.840
If anyone can cheer me, if
you know you can, does mind life

578
00:49:52.840 --> 00:49:57.519
get crazy? But of course,
but it's not as bad crap crazy as

579
00:49:57.559 --> 00:50:01.079
yours. Nowhere else are you go
find him? They're so used to it,

580
00:50:01.159 --> 00:50:07.199
they don't mind him. Ready for
Florida now all right? Actually we

581
00:50:07.239 --> 00:50:08.199
have three of them, and just
realized we have three. Let me start

582
00:50:08.239 --> 00:50:13.719
with the Florida not man. But
you know how sometimes they say pets look

583
00:50:13.760 --> 00:50:20.360
along like their owners. This is
straight up Florida bear here man. So

584
00:50:20.559 --> 00:50:28.039
Officials in Lake Mary, Florida,
say a homeowner contacted them after a three

585
00:50:28.239 --> 00:50:34.599
legged bear broke through their screen door
under their into their lannai. All right,

586
00:50:34.679 --> 00:50:39.920
so one of those pools and closed
pools there and rated the drink fridge.

587
00:50:39.960 --> 00:50:44.840
Apparently they have an outdoor drink fridge. According to the family, just

588
00:50:44.960 --> 00:50:49.039
their thirteen year old was home when
it happened, and even though there was

589
00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:57.280
a wide variety of delicious refreshing beverages
in there, the bear just drank the

590
00:50:57.400 --> 00:51:04.440
white claws. So bears A little
ghetto man, a little trashy bear there,

591
00:51:07.239 --> 00:51:09.840
got three legs. Got a story. Yeah, you can't even fight

592
00:51:09.920 --> 00:51:15.440
off a three legged bear. Everyone
is so soft. You should just be

593
00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:22.360
happy you didn't get into the four
locos. Man, get your your bear

594
00:51:22.400 --> 00:51:25.440
stool and white claws that's a bear
you should be able to take. I

595
00:51:25.480 --> 00:51:29.719
don't care if you're thirteen year old. You're thirteen year old. Was the

596
00:51:29.719 --> 00:51:36.760
only one at home. Many smart
talk all day, four five PTI in

597
00:51:36.800 --> 00:51:44.800
the Triad and one six one FM
talk in the Triangle. So I'm just

598
00:51:44.840 --> 00:51:46.719
reading a little more of this bear
article that I mentioned. We just had

599
00:51:46.719 --> 00:51:51.719
a very short time there. So
down in Florida, a bear got three

600
00:51:51.800 --> 00:51:55.920
legs. Man broke into a house, went for the old drink fridge and

601
00:51:57.119 --> 00:52:00.400
started consuming apparently just the white claws, so kind of doing the homeowner a

602
00:52:00.480 --> 00:52:04.679
favor. And I was just like, man, if you can't, you

603
00:52:04.719 --> 00:52:15.320
can't take a three legged bear protect
your property. Although some of the comments

604
00:52:15.320 --> 00:52:20.880
are pretty interesting because residents in the
area say that it's a friendly bear who

605
00:52:21.039 --> 00:52:28.719
is is known within the community as
Tripod. You know, Rossa. Did

606
00:52:28.719 --> 00:52:30.960
you know that my nickname in high
school? Tripod? Did you know that?

607
00:52:34.039 --> 00:52:36.920
Fun fact? I didn't have a
food related one like all the other

608
00:52:36.920 --> 00:52:40.079
ones. I'll let you figure that
out. No, the okay here,

609
00:52:40.239 --> 00:52:45.239
let me just say this. It's
if it's a wild bear, it's not

610
00:52:45.360 --> 00:52:51.760
a friendly bear in the purest sense. This is how people end up you

611
00:52:51.800 --> 00:52:58.000
know under a bison. Okay,
hey, I know it looks pretty chill.

612
00:52:58.199 --> 00:53:00.039
I just wanted to get in the
lenai have some white claws, had

613
00:53:00.079 --> 00:53:05.519
to make a fun TikTok video all
that. But why don't you I don't

614
00:53:05.559 --> 00:53:09.320
know, why don't you go put
yourself between the white claws and the bear?

615
00:53:12.639 --> 00:53:14.960
I mean, chances are right may
just run away. It is a

616
00:53:15.000 --> 00:53:19.119
black bear. They can be somewhat
timid. But if it really wants those

617
00:53:19.159 --> 00:53:25.639
white claws, or if you really
want to pet it's babies, this is

618
00:53:25.639 --> 00:53:29.480
how you end up on the news. Well, parts of you, the

619
00:53:29.519 --> 00:53:31.360
part they found under the one tree, and then they're looking for the other

620
00:53:31.360 --> 00:53:37.719
parts and now you're on the news. But I'm glad you got a nickname

621
00:53:37.840 --> 00:53:51.039
for it. Is it a female? Yeah, it is female. Yeah,

622
00:53:50.840 --> 00:53:52.400
you probably don't want to go to
share a drink with it, all

623
00:53:52.480 --> 00:53:55.480
right? Other Florida stories real quick, here we go, Clearwater, Florida.

624
00:53:55.559 --> 00:54:02.360
A Lakeland man arrested and accused of
assaulting a person in Walgreens was snickers

625
00:54:02.400 --> 00:54:10.280
bars. Described as highly intoxicated,
twenty three year old apparently became agitated when

626
00:54:10.280 --> 00:54:15.960
employees at the Walgreens in Clearwater refused
to sell him a box of cigarettes,

627
00:54:16.880 --> 00:54:20.480
says sighting store pup. Maybe he
didn't have an ID. I mean he's

628
00:54:20.599 --> 00:54:22.960
legal, but he didn't have one. I don't know, but whatever,

629
00:54:22.039 --> 00:54:29.960
he's hammered. He wants the SIGs
and when refused, according to security footage,

630
00:54:30.639 --> 00:54:34.960
the man started then grabbing Snickers bars
out of the box that was sitting

631
00:54:34.960 --> 00:54:37.679
there. But you know they have
him up the counter there for all the

632
00:54:37.719 --> 00:54:43.920
different candies and pelting the store manager
with the Snickers bars in the face.

633
00:54:44.000 --> 00:54:49.800
Dude, you're doing the angry meme
all wrong. Bro. Another employee rushed

634
00:54:49.800 --> 00:54:52.679
over to help ordered him to leave
the store. Initially, he said that

635
00:54:52.760 --> 00:54:57.199
he was not trying to hit the
employees, he just was throwing them,

636
00:54:57.320 --> 00:55:02.400
but in the footage it's clear that
he's aiming right at the dude. Do

637
00:55:02.440 --> 00:55:07.239
you feel assaulted though, when somebody's
throwing delicious snickers at you? Though?

638
00:55:08.079 --> 00:55:12.719
If you like snickers, like hypothetic
ross, Let's say, stormed into your

639
00:55:12.760 --> 00:55:16.920
studio, I rate drunk, I
don't know whatever, and I started like

640
00:55:17.000 --> 00:55:22.760
pelting you with olive garden breadsticks.
Do you want me brought up on charges?

641
00:55:23.599 --> 00:55:28.280
It's like early birthday present, my
dude, you're like a week early.

642
00:55:29.239 --> 00:55:34.360
Uh, I mean that would be
like that, that would be that

643
00:55:34.360 --> 00:55:37.840
would be great. It would be
an amazing day, like it's your wedding

644
00:55:37.880 --> 00:55:45.480
and instead of rice, just boom
breadsticks'll follow you around like a Roman emperor

645
00:55:45.519 --> 00:55:50.719
with rose petals and stuff. But
instead they arrested him and he's charged with

646
00:55:50.800 --> 00:55:53.719
battery. Does he get to keep
the snickers? Because I'm sure they're gonna

647
00:55:53.840 --> 00:55:59.480
get him for the property too.
We still have something for his commissary.

648
00:56:00.280 --> 00:56:05.719
And finally, in our Florida Man
section slash Florida Bear section, the idiot

649
00:56:05.840 --> 00:56:08.800
in the giant hamster ball who wants
to run across the Atlantic is back at

650
00:56:08.840 --> 00:56:16.320
it. This guy has tried and
failed on numerous occasions. This time he

651
00:56:16.400 --> 00:56:22.840
got seventy miles offshore. I think
last time he barely got offshore, and

652
00:56:22.880 --> 00:56:24.760
all of a sudden, it's like
AH should have checked to see if there

653
00:56:24.880 --> 00:56:30.719
was waves and stuff, and of
course has to be rescued. In this

654
00:56:30.760 --> 00:56:40.679
case, the forty four year old
it was attempting to run to London did

655
00:56:40.719 --> 00:56:50.239
not farewell with Coast Guard officials when
additionally located in his bizarre hamster wheel contraption.

656
00:56:51.159 --> 00:56:54.159
Coast Guard officials say they attempted to
ask him standard questions based on the

657
00:56:54.199 --> 00:57:00.400
condition of the vessel, which had
actually tangled. So he's trying to and

658
00:57:00.400 --> 00:57:07.920
then he runs through wiring and Booey's
and gets caught. The coast guard determined

659
00:57:07.960 --> 00:57:15.280
that he was conducting a w They
describe his manifestly unsafe voyage the vessel,

660
00:57:15.519 --> 00:57:21.039
which is it doesn't look like one
of those softballs, you know, like

661
00:57:21.079 --> 00:57:25.159
people put themselves in and then roll
down the hills. It's it's like a

662
00:57:25.280 --> 00:57:34.360
metal drum cage. And then on
the edges it's got giant inflatable boois,

663
00:57:34.440 --> 00:57:38.679
so there's a lot of space in
there, and on the buoy part there's

664
00:57:39.119 --> 00:57:47.400
there's like paddles to propel oneself.
Howeveryone asks questions. Blucci was unable to

665
00:57:47.400 --> 00:57:52.079
provide officials with any registration for his
well, oh, they got him on

666
00:57:52.199 --> 00:57:54.599
registration for the water vehicle. Come
on, man, you know licensing that.

667
00:57:55.880 --> 00:57:59.599
I'm all fortately if some dude wants
to do this, you know my

668
00:57:59.639 --> 00:58:05.280
opinion, right, If you're like
I wanna I read the Kenticki book and

669
00:58:06.000 --> 00:58:08.840
I'm gonna I'm gonna chop this tree
down, build my own thing and I'm

670
00:58:08.840 --> 00:58:12.840
gonna float to Fiji. You want
to do that, go ahead, But

671
00:58:12.920 --> 00:58:23.760
my caveat is we're not rescuing you. So you're making it rain breadsticks on

672
00:58:23.920 --> 00:58:27.920
Ross? Is there a stripper pole
involved? Now? Why do you have

673
00:58:27.960 --> 00:58:32.440
to make this dirty? Sir?
That's why I use the wedding thing.

674
00:58:32.599 --> 00:58:38.400
This is a happy moment. Ross
doesn't have to be twirling to make it

675
00:58:38.519 --> 00:58:43.559
rain breadsticks. How do you think
a stripper would feel about that? Even

676
00:58:43.559 --> 00:58:45.719
though you're doing her a favor,
right, you go in, there probably

677
00:58:45.719 --> 00:58:51.239
be a work hazard for her,
right Why? Because they got a little

678
00:58:51.320 --> 00:58:52.840
like a little greasy. They're a
little greasy. You're putting on some weight.

679
00:58:52.920 --> 00:58:58.840
Not good. Oh so it's a
combination of your fingers or slippery And

680
00:58:59.159 --> 00:59:01.000
yeah, you don't want to up
being one of those you know the memes

681
00:59:01.079 --> 00:59:05.320
where you see the video or the
person jumps on the pole and the pole

682
00:59:05.360 --> 00:59:10.320
falls down. Yeah, those are
I see those a lot. I think

683
00:59:10.320 --> 00:59:14.159
you should balanced the bread stick.
Look, there's a lot of cardio that's

684
00:59:14.159 --> 00:59:16.639
being done there, right, Plus
sure, yeah, I mean if she's

685
00:59:16.679 --> 00:59:22.239
doing enough exercise to burn off the
calories she's consuming. Plus there's the possibility

686
00:59:22.760 --> 00:59:25.159
this is not you know, and
it's not one size fits all. But

687
00:59:25.199 --> 00:59:30.760
there's also the possibility that maybe there's
some other stuff being ingested that tends to

688
00:59:30.840 --> 00:59:35.920
keep the weight off. Do you
catch them adrift? Other than not talking

689
00:59:35.960 --> 00:59:39.440
about the delicious of meatballs U no, no, equally is addicting, though,

690
00:59:40.239 --> 00:59:47.119
but something else that somebody might take, parmesan cheese or something. I

691
00:59:47.199 --> 00:59:54.840
mean in the sense that you too
could cut it into a line, right,

692
00:59:55.159 --> 00:59:59.480
you know, and maybe if the
low light, if if like the

693
00:59:59.559 --> 01:00:01.679
police busted in for a moment,
they mean like they may think it's something

694
01:00:01.719 --> 01:00:07.360
else. This is confusing me because
you're at the Olive garden. When you're

695
01:00:07.400 --> 01:00:08.320
there, your family, So I
mean, this is not a this is

696
01:00:08.320 --> 01:00:12.400
a family program, I believe.
I don't. Yes, no, it

697
01:00:12.519 --> 01:00:14.519
is. That's why I used the
wedding thing, because what you know,

698
01:00:14.559 --> 01:00:17.920
it's family oriented. Right. It's
one of our PERV listeners who happens to

699
01:00:17.960 --> 01:00:22.559
be a Patriots fan who immediately like
this is where his mind goes and you

700
01:00:22.679 --> 01:00:25.440
understandably, so like when the head
of your organization is, uh, you

701
01:00:25.480 --> 01:00:30.000
know, going to a rub joint
for fifty dollars a pop. Right,

702
01:00:31.320 --> 01:00:37.800
there's a there's a whole just a
whole culture of you know, I'm not

703
01:00:37.880 --> 01:00:42.800
sure who the emailer is, but
from what I've heard, his opinion,

704
01:00:42.840 --> 01:00:46.239
they need to apologize and resign.
Okay, well that's that's a fair point

705
01:00:46.320 --> 01:00:52.119
right there. I mean, speaking
of the Patriots, did you see that

706
01:00:52.159 --> 01:00:57.079
their cornerback who was facing thirty years
in prison? Somehow yesterday we found himself

707
01:00:57.119 --> 01:01:00.679
a deal where they dropped the charges
and he just got like probation and now

708
01:01:00.719 --> 01:01:09.519
he can play week one. That's
lucky, huh, lucky stuff, especially

709
01:01:09.559 --> 01:01:13.639
when you're facing federal charge. What
was the reason for that? There had

710
01:01:13.679 --> 01:01:16.320
to be an actually reasoning behind it. What do you mean besides being you're

711
01:01:16.320 --> 01:01:19.920
a very important player that we can't
lose and not guilty? What was like?

712
01:01:19.960 --> 01:01:23.800
What was the reasoning? Uh?
He he you know, he was

713
01:01:23.800 --> 01:01:28.920
a whoopsie that he had. What
was he he was arrested for? He

714
01:01:28.960 --> 01:01:34.960
had multiple handguns and pieces of luggage
when he went to the airport. He

715
01:01:35.000 --> 01:01:37.039
didn't just forget one gun. He
had at least two, and then I

716
01:01:37.079 --> 01:01:42.480
think he had parts of another one, like he grabbed the he grabbed the

717
01:01:42.599 --> 01:01:46.920
range bag. I guess, I
don't know. So he just got up

718
01:01:46.920 --> 01:01:50.119
in court and said shall not be
infringe, and they were like, good

719
01:01:50.119 --> 01:01:55.800
point, Well, whatever was the
point at the court there, which you

720
01:01:55.800 --> 01:02:00.199
know, is a court that happens
to be here a bunch of Patriots fans.

721
01:02:00.480 --> 01:02:06.719
The thirty year potential is now forty
five hours community service and one year

722
01:02:06.840 --> 01:02:14.960
of unsupervised probation, so and then
he can play week one. So that's

723
01:02:15.000 --> 01:02:21.480
good anyway. So Coastguards dealing with
this dude, we got sidetracked and h

724
01:02:21.639 --> 01:02:24.239
let's just say he's he's not one
to answer any of these questions. He's

725
01:02:24.280 --> 01:02:29.199
basically taking the m I being detained, which ironically he was because he had

726
01:02:29.960 --> 01:02:34.960
put his hamster wheel through cables and
buoys that were you know, U measuring

727
01:02:35.000 --> 01:02:38.880
booty booi's used by the Coastguard as
well as the National Weather Service and stuff

728
01:02:38.920 --> 01:02:45.000
for and he just kind of a
trove through all that and wasn't going anywhere

729
01:02:45.000 --> 01:02:52.719
anyway. So but yeah, so
he's facing charges man right there, all

730
01:02:52.840 --> 01:02:59.800
right, seven forty six race staging
from the Weather Channel. Morning. Bro,

731
01:03:00.679 --> 01:03:06.400
I'm good, I'm good. It's
all good. Panic yet, bro,

732
01:03:07.199 --> 01:03:12.119
bro, what were you a couple
of fumbles and that's you were?

733
01:03:12.400 --> 01:03:19.119
Dam were? Oh my daughter was
oh yeah, I think I wouldn't without

734
01:03:21.800 --> 01:03:28.440
uh. I haven't really talked much
yesterday. She was very trite. Hey

735
01:03:28.480 --> 01:03:32.119
listen, it's oh man, the
smallest chances. Now you basically got to

736
01:03:32.159 --> 01:03:37.400
win out and it's it's not gonna
be. But they listened. Props the

737
01:03:37.440 --> 01:03:40.400
duke. They came in and you
could tell from the first couple of plays

738
01:03:40.400 --> 01:03:44.920
they were ready to play. Uh
huh, they were ready to play.

739
01:03:45.000 --> 01:03:47.480
And you know, and they still
a couple of fumbles, which you listen,

740
01:03:47.559 --> 01:03:52.480
coaching doesn't fumble footballs. I'm sorry, you know, and that's probably

741
01:03:52.480 --> 01:03:57.440
a different ball game, but couple. But the Duke was making mistakes.

742
01:03:57.639 --> 01:03:59.639
They made a lot of mistakes,
and they did the first half. I

743
01:03:59.639 --> 01:04:01.519
think they won all the penalties,
right, Yeah, they did. Up

744
01:04:01.559 --> 01:04:04.679
then Clemson, I've won the whole
game, one penalty the whole game,

745
01:04:04.679 --> 01:04:08.840
which is amazing to me. But
a lot of work to be done,

746
01:04:08.840 --> 01:04:12.039
and I wasn't so it looked like
the same old, same old On the

747
01:04:12.039 --> 01:04:15.599
offensive. I never in my life
I've seen so many screens and bubble screens

748
01:04:15.639 --> 01:04:19.079
and just these little swing passes in
the last couple of years. And I'm

749
01:04:19.119 --> 01:04:23.519
saying, like, in all of
football, what that play usually gains nothing.

750
01:04:23.519 --> 01:04:27.119
Whatever happened up throwing a ball down
the field anyway, I digress.

751
01:04:27.880 --> 01:04:33.400
You're still in the top twenty five, barely barely twenty five is part of

752
01:04:33.440 --> 01:04:36.000
the top twenty five, it is, it is last I checked that.

753
01:04:36.000 --> 01:04:41.599
Well, it's the part of the
top twenty five. But let's see hot

754
01:04:41.639 --> 01:04:44.440
there. And I know a lot
of people complaining about the heat at the

755
01:04:44.480 --> 01:04:46.719
game, even Monday night. And
now the heat continues. Yesterday record in

756
01:04:46.840 --> 01:04:49.559
Raleigh at ninety eight. Not at
the try it was still in the mid

757
01:04:49.639 --> 01:04:55.280
nineties. More heat today. The
records are a little hotter today they were

758
01:04:55.360 --> 01:04:59.000
yesterday. So although it's going to
be ninety eight again in the triangle,

759
01:04:59.039 --> 01:05:00.960
it's not going to be a record
probably like ninety four ninety five at the

760
01:05:01.000 --> 01:05:04.880
tryad lots of sunshine, load of
mid nineties tomorrow. Then we'll start backing

761
01:05:04.880 --> 01:05:10.480
it off by Friday with a few
showers thundershowers scattered around upper eighties to load

762
01:05:10.599 --> 01:05:14.599
nineties at the weekend, a few
showers and thundershowers by Saturday afternoon, and

763
01:05:14.639 --> 01:05:16.639
Sunday load of mid eighties for daytime
high. So I think we'll break this

764
01:05:16.679 --> 01:05:21.280
heat here as we look ahead toward
the weekend, more seasonable temperatures after a

765
01:05:21.320 --> 01:05:27.119
couple more hot days, today being
the hottest. Okay, all right,

766
01:05:27.639 --> 01:05:30.079
it's all good, it's fine,
all right, I'll be okay, all

767
01:05:30.159 --> 01:05:33.119
right, we'll check in on the
internetur okay, okay, all right,

768
01:05:33.159 --> 01:05:44.440
there you go. Race Dag recovering
seven forty nine. Hang on the show

769
01:05:44.559 --> 01:05:48.039
after the show's on the iHeart Radio
app. Search case O day for the

770
01:05:48.079 --> 01:05:55.639
podcast on the iHeart Radio app is
seven fifty four. Let me get to

771
01:05:55.719 --> 01:06:00.400
some phone call, kint a little
sidetrack by stickers and other stuff. One

772
01:06:00.400 --> 01:06:08.360
of the things we were mentioning was
the casinos and whatnot right, Rockingham County,

773
01:06:08.440 --> 01:06:16.320
Nash County. Various others had a
little had a little thing. What

774
01:06:16.519 --> 01:06:20.760
is going on here? Hold on? Yes, hot line is as Ray.

775
01:06:20.880 --> 01:06:27.199
What's up, mister stagec A good
morning? What I do? No,

776
01:06:27.199 --> 01:06:29.360
no, nothing nothing. I didn't
know he's putting me on now.

777
01:06:29.440 --> 01:06:32.440
I just wanted to make sure we
were off ended up dumping my coffee cup

778
01:06:32.519 --> 01:06:35.679
on me, so I didn't hope
that nobody heard me scream out in a

779
01:06:35.920 --> 01:06:41.840
loud kind of jubil Asian right when
the hot coffee just spilled up. Just

780
01:06:41.880 --> 01:06:45.800
make I did it myself. Oh
wow, you're just having a it's not

781
01:06:45.840 --> 01:06:51.800
a good week for you. It
wasn't Duke's quarterback or no, no,

782
01:06:53.079 --> 01:06:57.440
it wasn't knocked the mic stand over
and everything. So I'm just cleaned it

783
01:06:57.519 --> 01:07:00.400
up here. Just wanted to,
you know what, I'll be it look

784
01:07:00.519 --> 01:07:05.239
does it look like that delta flight? Now? It doesn't look like that.

785
01:07:05.440 --> 01:07:10.599
That's that's so Luckily the cup wasn't
full and it was only moderately hot

786
01:07:10.639 --> 01:07:14.519
because it's been sitting here since five
thirty when I usually bore that first cup.

787
01:07:14.559 --> 01:07:17.159
But yeah, so I'll be there
next hour. Just let everybody know

788
01:07:17.159 --> 01:07:20.400
if they heard a loud noise and
a thump, that's what it was.

789
01:07:20.440 --> 01:07:24.639
But I'll be back. Okay,
all right, We're glad you're okay.

790
01:07:24.840 --> 01:07:29.079
All right, Okay, thanks dude. What a what an absolute what an

791
01:07:29.079 --> 01:07:30.920
absolute hell week that dude's happen.
All right, let me grab a call

792
01:07:31.000 --> 01:07:35.639
in casino stuff, all right,
Chris, thanks for hanging on. What's

793
01:07:35.639 --> 01:07:43.840
going on either? Oh my call? Before we get to the topic,

794
01:07:43.880 --> 01:07:45.880
I called in amount. I just
want to say a huge fan and I

795
01:07:45.880 --> 01:07:50.199
appreciate you know what you're doing in
your radio station all the members of it

796
01:07:50.239 --> 01:08:00.000
are doing. But as a Christian
Conservative myself and a former slash current resident

797
01:08:00.159 --> 01:08:03.559
of Rockingham County, I grew up
in Rockingham County from there for twenty nine

798
01:08:03.639 --> 01:08:10.199
years of my life, I see
both sides of the field. So you

799
01:08:10.239 --> 01:08:14.639
know, I guess I'm not too
strong Christian values because I have gambled in

800
01:08:14.679 --> 01:08:19.000
the past, not severely or anything, but just for fun in the in

801
01:08:19.039 --> 01:08:24.479
the mountain casinos of North Carolina and
Cherokee. Yeah, but you know,

802
01:08:24.720 --> 01:08:29.159
being on the ground, I see
both sides. So you're right in your

803
01:08:29.199 --> 01:08:35.439
comment about drugs bringing drugs, you
know, more adamant, more fluent,

804
01:08:36.760 --> 01:08:40.920
I guess, to the streets,
but they're already there if anyone has ever

805
01:08:40.960 --> 01:08:45.359
been in Rockingham County. I'm from
Reedsville myself, but the neighboring town of

806
01:08:45.520 --> 01:08:50.399
Eden, they're just drug written already. So I don't see that argument at

807
01:08:50.439 --> 01:08:57.159
all. But Rockingham County, being
a conservative county, I just think that

808
01:08:57.159 --> 01:09:03.159
would raise a lot of red flags. I'm it's conservatives, you would admit,

809
01:09:03.239 --> 01:09:10.520
though, especially Eden, there's been
a lot of financial blows, manure

810
01:09:10.800 --> 01:09:15.880
plants, and various other things.
So and you know that's that is a

811
01:09:15.000 --> 01:09:18.680
cash infusion to the extent that it
is. It just comes to and Chris,

812
01:09:18.760 --> 01:09:20.800
I appreciate the call. I just
looked up at the clock. Thank

813
01:09:20.840 --> 01:09:26.079
you for calling in and listening this
morning. So appreciate it. Thank you.

814
01:09:26.560 --> 01:09:29.800
Yeah, you gotta you know,
you gotta figure out what is inherently

815
01:09:29.800 --> 01:09:36.399
this is gonna end up posthumous more
and I don't know the answer to that.

816
01:09:36.399 --> 01:09:39.960
That's why you gotta, you know, try to take an honest approach

817
01:09:40.000 --> 01:09:41.880
looking at these things. We can
get. Like I said, we get

818
01:09:41.880 --> 01:09:45.680
some more calls on that. We
get calls on apparently mister ts coming up.

819
01:09:46.199 --> 01:09:54.359
Also, we got to talk about
playlists by cabinet members and some concerns

820
01:09:54.439 --> 01:09:56.720
that people may have had. More
on that in a bit hang out.

821
01:10:24.720 --> 01:10:29.159
All right, good morning, and
welcome. It is eight oh six.

822
01:10:29.359 --> 01:10:33.880
You're on the k c O Day
radio program. Normally, since it is

823
01:10:33.920 --> 01:10:38.520
the first Wednesday, we do first
and third Wednesday, so we'd be chatting

824
01:10:38.680 --> 01:10:43.560
the Lieutenant governor. But he had
a thing, so I'm not gonna chat

825
01:10:43.640 --> 01:10:47.800
with anything, so we're tuning in
for that. It's not happening, okay,

826
01:10:47.880 --> 01:10:49.880
all right, but we got lots
of stuff to fill the time.

827
01:10:50.039 --> 01:10:56.199
So if you're not just a quick
reminder for everyone listening this morning on the

828
01:10:56.520 --> 01:10:59.479
Triad side of things, or if
you're anywhere else and you're headed to the

829
01:10:59.479 --> 01:11:09.720
Triad the Forsyth County Public Safety Building. So for sythe County shrifs, it's

830
01:11:09.760 --> 01:11:15.279
not a drive through, not a
drive through. Lots of things are drive

831
01:11:15.359 --> 01:11:20.640
throughs, right, biscuitvills, a
drive through, hardis is a drive through.

832
01:11:23.319 --> 01:11:28.760
Cookouts a drive through. For sythe
County Sheriff's office, not a drive

833
01:11:28.800 --> 01:11:35.319
through. I understand it could be
tough to keep this stuff straight. So

834
01:11:35.399 --> 01:11:42.560
apparently, yesterday, according to authorities, a man decided that it was a

835
01:11:42.640 --> 01:11:49.880
drive through. Lee Anthony Marcel Slyde
Junior, according to authorities, drove through

836
01:11:49.880 --> 01:11:55.760
the front doors of the Forsyth County
Public Safety Building. So you got administrative

837
01:11:55.800 --> 01:12:03.039
offices, community corrections, so like
parole and probation officer and yeah, just

838
01:12:03.800 --> 01:12:08.680
drove right through. So the public
lobby, by the way is closed for

839
01:12:08.840 --> 01:12:12.239
obvious reasons. If you thought you're
gonna go over the lobby today, that's

840
01:12:12.279 --> 01:12:15.920
not a happening because the dude drove
his car through there, allegedly, I

841
01:12:15.960 --> 01:12:26.279
guess. Thankfully no one was hurt. The Winston Salem Police investigated the crash,

842
01:12:26.399 --> 01:12:30.880
which Sheriff's office says has made the
front entrance unsafe for the public.

843
01:12:31.840 --> 01:12:38.640
Dude's charged with misdemeanor vandalism, breaking
and entering while I guess damaging the government

844
01:12:38.680 --> 01:12:43.600
building to facing a public building,
damage to real property, trespassing. He

845
01:12:43.640 --> 01:12:45.880
didn't have a valid license. They
got him for that, impaired driving,

846
01:12:46.720 --> 01:12:49.640
and he had a couple of warrants. Now why did he do it?

847
01:12:51.600 --> 01:12:57.920
Allegedly he told investigators he did it
because he was mad at his probation officer.

848
01:13:00.319 --> 01:13:08.560
I'll feel like that's gonna work out
for you, dude. I don't,

849
01:13:09.079 --> 01:13:12.239
Yeah, I don't. I don't. You could be mad at your

850
01:13:12.680 --> 01:13:17.399
your your probation officer might even be
justified, right, But how did you

851
01:13:17.520 --> 01:13:21.720
think driving through the lobby was gonna
do anything? That's something his his desk

852
01:13:21.840 --> 01:13:28.720
isn't there. I'm assuming did you
think it's every action movie ever where you

853
01:13:28.720 --> 01:13:32.000
can just keep driving through the totality
of the building. Because that doesn't generally

854
01:13:32.039 --> 01:13:35.039
work, especially a big building like
that, or they're gonna have support beams

855
01:13:35.039 --> 01:13:41.680
and stuff. You're not gonna win. So yeah, again, just a

856
01:13:41.720 --> 01:13:47.640
reminder not a drive through. Yeah. I don't know why we have to

857
01:13:47.680 --> 01:13:51.520
have these these little reminders, man, but we do. All right,

858
01:13:51.600 --> 01:14:00.199
quick call little man, what's going
on? Casey interrupt us to the Florida

859
01:14:00.279 --> 01:14:05.079
Man and throwing the candy bars.
If folks will remember, back in the

860
01:14:05.680 --> 01:14:09.640
I guess the mid eighties, during
the heyday of the A Team and Mister

861
01:14:09.760 --> 01:14:15.439
T's popularity, Snickers made a commercial
with mister T where he goes to the

862
01:14:15.479 --> 01:14:19.199
A Team deal and builds the big
Gatlin gun inside the barn and he explodes

863
01:14:19.239 --> 01:14:24.079
out. He starts shooting. This
thing is as big as a nose gun

864
01:14:24.119 --> 01:14:27.920
on the A ten warth hog.
Shooty Snickers at this fellow who's running down

865
01:14:27.920 --> 01:14:30.279
the sidewalk, kind of like a
Dylan mulvaney, tell him run like a

866
01:14:30.319 --> 01:14:34.199
man. I know he was in
there. He did one of the hand

867
01:14:34.479 --> 01:14:41.479
commercions recently. I haven't seen that, but you can find up on the

868
01:14:41.479 --> 01:14:44.960
online. It's still out there and
it is hilarious. Okay, all right,

869
01:14:45.000 --> 01:14:51.600
I'll check her out. Ross.
Did you notice anything in the background

870
01:14:51.600 --> 01:14:58.279
of that call? Are you listening
to the background of the last call?

871
01:15:00.279 --> 01:15:03.239
Did it? It sounded like we
weren't on delay. I hope he's streaming

872
01:15:03.279 --> 01:15:11.640
stuff because like I could hear normally
when when I'm okay, well yeah,

873
01:15:11.680 --> 01:15:16.800
but it was he listening on PTI. I'm not terrified. Ah, I

874
01:15:16.880 --> 01:15:19.000
was hearing my voicecoat. But by
the way, when he called the show

875
01:15:19.039 --> 01:15:21.279
and understanding, gonna keep listen,
I'm gonna come to you. So it'll

876
01:15:21.279 --> 01:15:27.199
be a little moment that you gotta
turn down your radio. Okay, Oh

877
01:15:27.239 --> 01:15:32.960
thank god. I just got incredibly
nervous, especially because we're gonna get into

878
01:15:33.000 --> 01:15:41.159
the rap lyrics thing and we'll we'll
dicey that topic. I'll look at this.

879
01:15:41.279 --> 01:15:44.079
Oh okay, all right, Well, one Mark not here. Another

880
01:15:44.119 --> 01:15:47.640
Mark is here, and he was
actually a part Mark Walker was talking about

881
01:15:47.640 --> 01:15:53.079
the casino thing. What's going on
this sporting sir? Okay, see,

882
01:15:53.159 --> 01:15:57.319
I hope you're doing well, pretty
good. We just we're just chatting with

883
01:15:57.359 --> 01:16:00.000
a resident of Rockingham County. Seems
a little we're on this. I know

884
01:16:00.119 --> 01:16:04.840
you were, you were up with
some of the citizens groups up there had

885
01:16:04.920 --> 01:16:09.239
some objections. I got to admit, I'm kind of tore on this thing

886
01:16:09.319 --> 01:16:15.119
because Eden's taken a bunch of gut
punches, right, you know this over

887
01:16:15.199 --> 01:16:20.680
the last few years from the beer
plan to many of the financial struggles,

888
01:16:21.239 --> 01:16:26.760
not just in Eden but other parts
of Rockingham County. And there's issues and

889
01:16:26.760 --> 01:16:30.359
I understand people think that there's going
to be additional issues with a casino,

890
01:16:30.520 --> 01:16:34.600
but there is also the financial impact. So talk about what folks were doing

891
01:16:34.680 --> 01:16:40.600
up there yesterday. Yeah, I
mean it all started a few months ago

892
01:16:40.800 --> 01:16:45.439
when a small group reached out to
some of their elected officials, Thunderberger,

893
01:16:45.479 --> 01:16:48.239
the commissioners, including within a governor
Mark Robinson, and they simply couldn't get

894
01:16:48.239 --> 01:16:53.000
a call back. And we've we
were privileged to represent these folks for six

895
01:16:53.079 --> 01:16:56.079
years in the US House. And
frankly, I live less than five miles

896
01:16:56.119 --> 01:17:00.159
from the proposed site. But there's
two points to be made here. One

897
01:17:00.239 --> 01:17:02.680
if you're arguing it against it from
a faith or a moral standpoint, If

898
01:17:02.680 --> 01:17:08.760
you look at if you look at
what they call problem gambling. According to

899
01:17:08.800 --> 01:17:15.239
the National Association of Addiction Professionals,
problem gambling is the highest suicide attempt at

900
01:17:15.319 --> 01:17:17.720
rate of any addictions. And plus, if you're looking at federal funding,

901
01:17:18.840 --> 01:17:23.600
unlike drug and alcohol treatment and all
that, if there is no funding to

902
01:17:23.640 --> 01:17:28.760
deal with people and approximately four million
people struggle with this. So there's one

903
01:17:28.800 --> 01:17:31.399
aspect from the faith and moral,
but the bigger issue for these people,

904
01:17:31.680 --> 01:17:35.439
and this is where I agree with
wherever you're all casinos, with the lack

905
01:17:35.479 --> 01:17:42.239
of transparency, just to come in
and plow through these rural counties and use

906
01:17:42.319 --> 01:17:46.319
them as to help with the budget
shortfall, giving no voice, giving no

907
01:17:46.439 --> 01:17:51.239
referendum, not even a vote really
in the state House. This was just

908
01:17:51.359 --> 01:17:56.600
planning to be packed away or tucked
away, i should say, in the

909
01:17:56.680 --> 01:18:00.239
overall budget. That was the big
issue. And then when you write the

910
01:18:00.319 --> 01:18:05.560
legislation that's designed for just one gaming
organization, that's chronyism, and that whether

911
01:18:05.600 --> 01:18:10.159
it's at the state level or the
federal level, that's the problem that I

912
01:18:10.279 --> 01:18:12.560
had with it. Look, if
you want to do it straight up,

913
01:18:12.840 --> 01:18:15.960
go ahead. From the libertarian side
of me, that's your decision. If

914
01:18:15.960 --> 01:18:19.199
you want to go spend your money, stupid probably, but that's your decision.

915
01:18:19.680 --> 01:18:23.640
But that was the problem these folks
had. That's where I was willing

916
01:18:23.720 --> 01:18:28.079
to help them get organized. We
had the largest ever turnout close to eight

917
01:18:28.199 --> 01:18:31.239
hundred people at the Commissioner's meeting just
a couple of weeks ago, and had

918
01:18:31.279 --> 01:18:35.199
a good crowd yesterday as they met
with their legislators. Well, I hear

919
01:18:35.239 --> 01:18:38.640
you on the chronism thing, because
like I, you know, if that

920
01:18:38.680 --> 01:18:42.279
passes, it's not like I can
just go up and give me a little

921
01:18:42.319 --> 01:18:45.079
plot of land and open up Casey's
gamble and pleasure palace, right, you

922
01:18:45.119 --> 01:18:48.039
know, like bift handon from back. I can't just go do that.

923
01:18:48.119 --> 01:18:50.720
It's going to be a handful of
folks. And you see this with expansion

924
01:18:50.760 --> 01:18:55.960
of like marijuana laws in different states
and various others. So I share that

925
01:18:56.039 --> 01:18:59.479
frustration. I think on the addiction
side, the only thing I'd say is,

926
01:18:59.560 --> 01:19:02.079
if I'm sitting up in Eden and
I want to go gamble on,

927
01:19:02.199 --> 01:19:06.920
something is really easy. I can
drive to the new casino up there.

928
01:19:08.399 --> 01:19:12.159
I can go online. I can
go to some of these sweepstakes parlors that

929
01:19:12.279 --> 01:19:15.800
still continue to exist. I can
just place bets with my buddies calling d

930
01:19:16.039 --> 01:19:19.159
don't watching golf. Do you know
what I'm saying? And I think that

931
01:19:19.239 --> 01:19:23.479
people are going to find that.
And you can argue that it makes it

932
01:19:23.560 --> 01:19:27.479
easier for them to find, but
really it makes one aspect of it easier

933
01:19:27.520 --> 01:19:31.800
to find. Not to mention the
state lotteries and like all those things exist

934
01:19:31.920 --> 01:19:36.399
out there, and the libertarian part
of me is with like, I get

935
01:19:36.479 --> 01:19:42.920
really uncomfortable when I see people whose
pure objection is one that is just a

936
01:19:43.000 --> 01:19:48.800
faith based objection. I know that
irritates some of my listeners because I share

937
01:19:48.920 --> 01:19:56.560
the I share the discomfort in the
targeting of the disrespect of Christian beliefs in

938
01:19:56.960 --> 01:20:00.319
so many issues, with things like
people wanted to take a moral state ants

939
01:20:00.399 --> 01:20:05.239
on using their artistry for baking cakes
and things like that. But in reality,

940
01:20:05.600 --> 01:20:10.920
if it simply exists and somebody has
a moral objection, they can simply

941
01:20:10.960 --> 01:20:14.439
not go to it. I understand
what I'm saying, Mark, I try

942
01:20:17.119 --> 01:20:21.680
and even as a former pastor,
identify what you're saying. There is a

943
01:20:21.800 --> 01:20:28.239
difference is for as what we believe
as Christians versus what the rights that people

944
01:20:28.319 --> 01:20:33.920
have, whatever your background, whatever
your sexual orientation, as the Constitution protects

945
01:20:34.039 --> 01:20:39.359
the individual rights, and when you're
in public office, your job is to

946
01:20:39.359 --> 01:20:45.199
defend that without discrimination. The point
being this, of course you did mention

947
01:20:45.399 --> 01:20:49.239
even in the closing of the Corselets, certain breweries and things, this is

948
01:20:49.239 --> 01:20:54.960
about twenty miles away from that part
of the county. But the point was

949
01:20:55.000 --> 01:20:59.319
being is that the people simply wanted
to have a vote or have their voices

950
01:20:59.399 --> 01:21:04.960
heard. And that's what I what
drove these folks. There's something about principled

951
01:21:05.079 --> 01:21:10.880
rural country folks. They just don't
get bought off and they dug their heels

952
01:21:10.880 --> 01:21:14.039
in. And this is a very
rare if they're able to win this,

953
01:21:14.640 --> 01:21:20.319
it's very rare that once checks have
been cashed, that you can actually overcome

954
01:21:20.560 --> 01:21:25.920
the powerful politicians. But it looks
like there is a chance to do this.

955
01:21:26.000 --> 01:21:28.840
I will tell you I don't think
it's been released it, but in

956
01:21:28.920 --> 01:21:32.159
the House caucus yesterday, the deal
was trying to find fifty percent of a

957
01:21:32.159 --> 01:21:36.760
House caucus for what I'm understanding,
that failed miserably. That's a huge step

958
01:21:36.880 --> 01:21:42.960
in a win for these rural counties
who simply don't want their entire community,

959
01:21:43.199 --> 01:21:46.960
the culture of their community completely changed
overnight. That was their biggest sue.

960
01:21:47.119 --> 01:21:49.840
Put a referentum on it. If
they voted, that's fine, but don't

961
01:21:49.880 --> 01:21:54.359
just force feed this to us.
What if county step up and say we

962
01:21:54.399 --> 01:21:58.239
do want this. So maybe it's
not Rockingham County, but maybe it's I

963
01:21:58.279 --> 01:22:01.039
don't know, Pender County down on
the coat story. You know what I'm

964
01:22:01.079 --> 01:22:06.760
saying. Yes, that's there.
That's they're right from A from a it's

965
01:22:06.880 --> 01:22:11.399
different to your point, it's different
how I morally feel about it. What

966
01:22:11.479 --> 01:22:15.760
should be legally allowed in f a
county or state vote something in this republic.

967
01:22:16.439 --> 01:22:19.479
This is the way that we do
things in America. And that was

968
01:22:19.520 --> 01:22:24.880
the point these folks make, because
the legislation wasn't for every county. You

969
01:22:24.960 --> 01:22:27.880
had to have less than a hundred
thousand. You had it all these different

970
01:22:27.880 --> 01:22:31.119
cypifications there. This is what they
had to follow through with. And they're

971
01:22:31.119 --> 01:22:34.319
like, wait a second, do
we not have any voice? You're going

972
01:22:34.359 --> 01:22:39.520
to put something here that's borders one
hundred and fifty feet of a camp with

973
01:22:39.720 --> 01:22:44.279
children that they are ministered to with
disabilities. That was a bad pr move,

974
01:22:44.319 --> 01:22:47.279
I think on their part. But
this is something that is a reminder

975
01:22:47.880 --> 01:22:53.279
that people can still rally together,
they can get organized, and they can

976
01:22:53.319 --> 01:22:57.520
make a difference and push back even
sometimes when the big government is coming from

977
01:22:57.520 --> 01:23:01.239
the Republican side. All right,
Mark appreciate it. Uh uh yeah,

978
01:23:01.239 --> 01:23:04.520
Well we'll obviously we're gonna keep following
this and we'll see. It's interesting they

979
01:23:04.520 --> 01:23:09.600
weren't able to get fifty percent there, but I don't suspect they're going to

980
01:23:09.680 --> 01:23:14.840
stop trying. So all right,
alright, all right, there you go.

981
01:23:15.800 --> 01:23:18.119
Yeah. I mean, if you're
you know, pick a k,

982
01:23:18.239 --> 01:23:21.279
if you're Ashe County up and you
know, way up in the mountains there,

983
01:23:24.520 --> 01:23:27.359
I don't know see my big,
my big deviation. And I know

984
01:23:27.399 --> 01:23:29.960
what you're to take people in saying
that is, I feel like there's a

985
01:23:30.000 --> 01:23:33.039
difference between government telling you you have
to do something or force you need to

986
01:23:33.039 --> 01:23:39.800
do something, versus when you're not
forced to do something, but maybe them

987
01:23:39.800 --> 01:23:44.479
doing something that you feel is not
morally within your religious structure, which is

988
01:23:44.520 --> 01:23:51.039
what the actual separation really is supposed
to be. But that that obviously is

989
01:23:51.119 --> 01:23:54.079
lost on a lot of folks.
All right, let me grat one more

990
01:23:54.119 --> 01:23:56.640
call on this since we're already in
it. Jeff, go right ahead.

991
01:23:57.960 --> 01:24:01.239
Hey, Casey, Yeah, I
had spoke with mak Walker about this,

992
01:24:01.319 --> 01:24:04.079
and I agree with him one hundred
percent. We don't want it. It's

993
01:24:04.119 --> 01:24:10.119
a poison pill. Uh. You
know, they're going to put this cancer

994
01:24:10.239 --> 01:24:16.039
cell right at the front door coming
into Madison on two twenty and in five

995
01:24:16.159 --> 01:24:21.279
years that cancer cell is going to
be stage four cancer throughout all the towns

996
01:24:21.319 --> 01:24:26.279
around here, and you can't stop
it. And that's not just hyperbole.

997
01:24:26.600 --> 01:24:30.319
That is coming from Sheriff Page,
who got up and talked about all manner

998
01:24:30.399 --> 01:24:35.640
of crime that come along with a
casino and we just don't want it.

999
01:24:36.359 --> 01:24:40.439
The early caller, I think his
name was Chris, was saying, well,

1000
01:24:40.479 --> 01:24:43.479
I see both sides of it,
and he lives in Reidsville and they

1001
01:24:43.520 --> 01:24:45.920
got crime. Yeah, they do
have crime in Reidsville and Eden, and

1002
01:24:45.960 --> 01:24:54.600
we don't want it here. What
is disappointing is I called Mark Robinson's office

1003
01:24:54.720 --> 01:24:58.840
about this, and I did get
a call back from his coordinator, and

1004
01:24:58.880 --> 01:25:04.840
she wanted a manner all detailed information
on meetings that we're going to be taking

1005
01:25:04.840 --> 01:25:06.840
place, and I said, look, I'm going to put you in touch

1006
01:25:06.880 --> 01:25:11.279
with this other lady that has a
lot more information about it than I do.

1007
01:25:11.960 --> 01:25:16.039
And she also spoke with her,
and then suddenly there was radio silence.

1008
01:25:16.159 --> 01:25:21.680
Nothing. Mark Robinson just he could
have got a hold of Phil Burger

1009
01:25:21.680 --> 01:25:28.199
because Phil Burger's wangling some things up
there in Raleigh too, which Phil Burger

1010
01:25:28.359 --> 01:25:32.640
and all these commissioners are going to
be in big trouble because they are nobody's

1011
01:25:32.680 --> 01:25:38.199
going to vote for these guys,
which is another bad thing for Robinham County

1012
01:25:38.600 --> 01:25:41.640
because it's going to be a big
snowball effect. Nobody's going to vote for

1013
01:25:41.640 --> 01:25:45.279
these commissioners. They're all Republicans,
nobody's going to vote for him, which

1014
01:25:45.279 --> 01:25:48.279
means it's a very good chance that
Democrats will take over, and then we

1015
01:25:48.319 --> 01:25:57.239
can expect a transformational change in our
county up here with primary and then,

1016
01:25:57.279 --> 01:26:02.000
Sir, I have a hard time
believing the well, that's what we yeah,

1017
01:26:02.079 --> 01:26:05.760
hold on. Let me just say
is I don't think that I think

1018
01:26:05.800 --> 01:26:13.359
the chances of Rockingham flipping blue,
even though I can understand where people would

1019
01:26:13.399 --> 01:26:15.520
would say, like this is not
the small dividing line that you saw when

1020
01:26:15.520 --> 01:26:19.680
people turned on McCary over toll roads, Rockingham is gonna be read. And

1021
01:26:19.760 --> 01:26:23.520
I think that if there is a
place where you have an easier chance of

1022
01:26:23.520 --> 01:26:27.479
flipping it, if that is the
appetite of the public, Rockingham would be

1023
01:26:27.520 --> 01:26:31.159
a good example, because I think
people do rally. You're passionate about this,

1024
01:26:31.199 --> 01:26:35.479
Mark said, eight hundred people showed
up to the meeting the other day.

1025
01:26:34.520 --> 01:26:40.800
I saw Mark's been at all of
them. Yeah, as far as

1026
01:26:40.800 --> 01:26:44.479
what Robinson's doing. I plan on
ask him about it today, but he

1027
01:26:44.560 --> 01:26:47.880
had the school, but it's on
the list. I hope you press him

1028
01:26:47.920 --> 01:26:53.600
hard on it because he has just
gone radio silent on us. Yeah.

1029
01:26:53.680 --> 01:26:55.720
Well, and I don't know.
Maybe he's doing something the bad. I

1030
01:26:56.199 --> 01:26:58.520
don't know, and I will I'm
happy to ask him about it. But

1031
01:26:58.560 --> 01:27:00.479
I will tell you this, I
don't think Phil Burger scared at Mark Robinson

1032
01:27:00.520 --> 01:27:04.359
in any way, shape or form. I think that well. I think

1033
01:27:04.880 --> 01:27:11.760
I think people fail to realize the
real levels levers of power that both more

1034
01:27:11.840 --> 01:27:14.960
in Burger. I mean those are
the most powerful people, especially with the

1035
01:27:15.000 --> 01:27:19.279
ability to override the governor. I
mean they're basically untouchable. So all right,

1036
01:27:19.399 --> 01:27:21.319
well, Jeff fight. Look,
I appreciate the call this morning.

1037
01:27:21.319 --> 01:27:26.000
I got a role, Thank you
very much. All Right, anyway,

1038
01:27:26.000 --> 01:27:29.279
it was went long in that segment, but that's okay. Did you all

1039
01:27:29.279 --> 01:27:33.840
see the big whoopsie in the Turkish
president air degons meeting with the Vladimir Putin

1040
01:27:33.960 --> 01:27:46.720
yesterday? Oh wait for this,
it's next rising Sundery one h six one

1041
01:27:46.800 --> 01:27:53.159
FM. Talk in the Triangle.
There's talk n w PTI in the triad.

1042
01:27:56.680 --> 01:28:00.640
All right, good morning, eight
thirty six, happy when everybody it

1043
01:28:00.760 --> 01:28:03.640
is the case O Day radio program. I'm not sure the protocol on this.

1044
01:28:06.239 --> 01:28:09.880
I don't know if somebody falls out
of a window or where we go

1045
01:28:10.119 --> 01:28:15.279
from here, but oh boy,
oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.

1046
01:28:15.439 --> 01:28:25.840
So the head of Turkey, President
ed Gun was having himself a little

1047
01:28:26.000 --> 01:28:30.000
a little sit down with the Vladimir
Putin, right, So it's that standard

1048
01:28:30.079 --> 01:28:34.079
thing you see anytime you got these
two world leaders the chairs and get the

1049
01:28:34.159 --> 01:28:39.760
flags behind them and they're having themselves
a little conversation and then a little Q

1050
01:28:39.920 --> 01:28:47.920
and a maybe after there was translators
in this instance because I guess, you

1051
01:28:48.000 --> 01:28:54.239
know, like they don't speak both
Turkish or both Russian. You want to

1052
01:28:54.279 --> 01:29:00.199
make sure. And there was a
little bit of an issue. A good

1053
01:29:00.279 --> 01:29:03.720
reminder too at this point the Turkey
is a NATO state because we thought that

1054
01:29:03.880 --> 01:29:05.920
was a good idea. So we
get some missiles put in there, but

1055
01:29:06.039 --> 01:29:12.800
whatever, But it does come with
certain obligations on the part of US and

1056
01:29:12.880 --> 01:29:17.560
other NATO members. So even though
it was a bit of a blunder between

1057
01:29:17.640 --> 01:29:25.600
those two countries, obviously there's some
US interest here. So at one point

1058
01:29:25.840 --> 01:29:30.439
and it's not abundantly clear exactly what
air Degne was getting at. And they

1059
01:29:30.479 --> 01:29:34.279
don't think it was his screw up. They think it was the interpreter.

1060
01:29:41.439 --> 01:29:46.399
We try to read this the well
here Basically, the interpreter, when interpreting

1061
01:29:46.520 --> 01:29:56.279
from Turkish to Russian, inadvertently said
that air air Degne declared war on Russia.

1062
01:29:57.399 --> 01:30:00.840
That's not what he said. But
how does it? Are there take

1063
01:30:00.880 --> 01:30:04.279
backs at that point? Can you
do TakeBack? SI's does that even?

1064
01:30:04.560 --> 01:30:08.720
Like? Did he just say he
wanted to nuke the Kremlin? What he

1065
01:30:08.800 --> 01:30:11.399
s like? I said, have
you seen Kremlin's? Oh? Oh no,

1066
01:30:11.560 --> 01:30:13.720
I have it in a while?
Doesn't hold up. It's been a

1067
01:30:15.000 --> 01:30:17.640
like, dude, you gotta get
that right. You know what I'm saying.

1068
01:30:18.560 --> 01:30:23.239
Here's one thing if they're like comparing
jets or something and there's a little

1069
01:30:23.239 --> 01:30:26.880
whoopsie, like uh, got the
wrong Gulf Stream number or something right,

1070
01:30:30.079 --> 01:30:35.680
but not ah, we declare war. Now. The reaction on the part

1071
01:30:35.720 --> 01:30:41.079
of Putin does he seemed to be
not But I think he even I think

1072
01:30:41.119 --> 01:30:45.960
he probably realized it was a whoopsie
even at the time. I think he

1073
01:30:46.039 --> 01:30:49.960
does have a little bit of Turkish
language skills or something. But still still

1074
01:30:50.119 --> 01:30:53.880
maybe it's one of those things where
have you ever told yourself over and over

1075
01:30:53.920 --> 01:30:57.039
again not to do something because you're
nervous you're gonna do it, and didn't

1076
01:30:57.199 --> 01:30:59.840
do it anyway, Maybe it was
like that, like the interpreter goes in,

1077
01:31:00.079 --> 01:31:01.439
like, whatever you do, don't
say that we're declaring war. Do

1078
01:31:01.600 --> 01:31:05.119
not say we're declaring war. And
as soon as they start really declaring war,

1079
01:31:05.880 --> 01:31:10.279
I think it's important. I think
it's important from an interpreter standpoint.

1080
01:31:11.560 --> 01:31:15.399
You gotta want, you gotta be
accurate, obviously, but you know on

1081
01:31:15.520 --> 01:31:21.800
occasion there's going to be things that
because sometimes things just don't translate exactly.

1082
01:31:24.479 --> 01:31:29.600
Like I have very minimal second language
skills, but as as I've gotten better

1083
01:31:29.720 --> 01:31:33.640
with it, like there's times where
I gotta sit there and go, well,

1084
01:31:33.800 --> 01:31:38.159
I don't even know exactly how that
would translate. So when somebody says,

1085
01:31:38.159 --> 01:31:40.079
well, what does this mean,
and you're like, it kind of

1086
01:31:40.199 --> 01:31:44.800
means, you find yourself saying that
what it kind of means is because it's

1087
01:31:44.880 --> 01:31:46.840
not. It's not. But when
you're an interpreter, you're beyond all that

1088
01:31:47.119 --> 01:31:53.000
because you're, especially at this level, you gotta have the skills, not

1089
01:31:53.199 --> 01:31:58.720
just for conversational interpretation, but for
very specific nuances. Yeah, I mean

1090
01:31:58.760 --> 01:32:01.199
certain languages don't even have words for
other things. You mean, yeah,

1091
01:32:01.720 --> 01:32:06.359
I heard Vietnam. It's really hard
to translate Vietamese. Reason I don't speak

1092
01:32:06.399 --> 01:32:11.800
any of that, but that probably
you know. So like when they tell

1093
01:32:11.880 --> 01:32:17.920
you that they're not holding an entire
group of POWs at this camp, they

1094
01:32:18.279 --> 01:32:20.680
you know, which they did,
and then we found out that's not the

1095
01:32:20.760 --> 01:32:26.640
case when they went into take like
you think that was an interpretation, Okay,

1096
01:32:26.880 --> 01:32:31.159
all right, but when you're at
this level, even though there's a

1097
01:32:31.239 --> 01:32:34.880
certain muscle memory to it on the
on the part of the interpreter, yeah,

1098
01:32:35.039 --> 01:32:39.319
you're obligated to interpret exactly. And
they say, it's why in a

1099
01:32:39.359 --> 01:32:44.039
lot of these instances they have an
interpreter who's working, because again there's a

1100
01:32:44.079 --> 01:32:45.920
trust issue. They have interpreters that
are working, but one that's working for

1101
01:32:46.000 --> 01:32:50.119
both sides, and then generally another
interpreter's kind of like on the side doing

1102
01:32:50.199 --> 01:32:57.760
stuff making sure the other ones are
because you can't you can't inject your own

1103
01:32:58.399 --> 01:33:06.319
interpretation if it doesn't mean exactly that. I was thinking of an example and

1104
01:33:06.359 --> 01:33:13.439
then I just it went away from
my head on something something that somebody said

1105
01:33:13.439 --> 01:33:16.920
in Spanish that I thought meant one
thing, but in reality it has a

1106
01:33:17.039 --> 01:33:23.319
very different meaning. I remember being
very confused by it until somebody who was

1107
01:33:23.399 --> 01:33:26.760
much much better at it I was
able to adequately explain to me. But

1108
01:33:26.840 --> 01:33:30.000
I realized, like that could be
a huge whoops. And it's one of

1109
01:33:30.079 --> 01:33:35.319
the problems that you have with like
translation apps when you go to translate things,

1110
01:33:35.359 --> 01:33:41.159
because you know, when you think
you're translating something and what was gosh,

1111
01:33:41.279 --> 01:33:45.880
what was it? It doesn't translate
exactly, especially when you get into

1112
01:33:46.239 --> 01:33:53.239
like slang, it's just you're just
dead in the water. So you know

1113
01:33:53.479 --> 01:33:58.319
things that if you were just too
directly interpret it wouldn't mean the slang that

1114
01:33:58.439 --> 01:34:05.279
you think it does. But when
it's something as important as and you're then

1115
01:34:05.359 --> 01:34:11.199
interpreter and you think, you know, this is gonna be a pretty everyone's

1116
01:34:11.720 --> 01:34:15.800
a good spirited conversation, there's not. There's not huge huge Turkish Russia issues.

1117
01:34:15.800 --> 01:34:20.560
I don't look, Russia has concerns
about US military sites within Turkey and

1118
01:34:20.640 --> 01:34:27.479
launch capabilities, but that's not what
this this little, this little gatherings for.

1119
01:34:28.039 --> 01:34:31.359
So when you hear and if you
think you here the president of Turkey

1120
01:34:31.439 --> 01:34:41.039
declaring war on Russia. You're I
guess you're obligated to exactly translate that,

1121
01:34:41.279 --> 01:34:43.920
but in your head you gotta be
like, am I sure that's what I

1122
01:34:44.039 --> 01:34:49.680
heard? Because I don't I didn't
see that coming. And then once you

1123
01:34:49.760 --> 01:34:53.680
declare war, is it like it's
like when you've declared a thumb war.

1124
01:34:53.840 --> 01:34:56.479
It's just on there's nothing you can
do. I don't know the rules of

1125
01:34:56.600 --> 01:35:00.279
declaring war. So maybe it's like
in the movies when you have to like

1126
01:35:00.399 --> 01:35:03.119
turn the keys to arm the nukes, like you need like three keys simultaneously.

1127
01:35:03.199 --> 01:35:08.039
Like maybe you would have to declare
war like three times. Yeah,

1128
01:35:08.119 --> 01:35:10.479
But the problem is just I don't
know, if you know this. Russia

1129
01:35:10.520 --> 01:35:15.640
seems a little unhinged on some of
this stuff, right, Like let's say

1130
01:35:15.680 --> 01:35:18.640
you were to hypothetically almost stage a
cub but then go, nah, I'm

1131
01:35:18.680 --> 01:35:25.520
just kidding, Like, it's pretty
obvious that he didn't he took that personally

1132
01:35:25.600 --> 01:35:28.680
right at this point, I mean, I don't. I don't see any

1133
01:35:28.720 --> 01:35:30.840
evidence pointing to that. I think
he gave him a promotion or whatever,

1134
01:35:30.960 --> 01:35:35.760
and the guy unfortunately died in a
plane crash. Yeah, that's this guy.

1135
01:35:36.600 --> 01:35:40.760
Well, technically I think there was
a bomb on board. They somebody

1136
01:35:40.880 --> 01:35:45.079
dis misplaced their bomb. These things
happen, so yeah, you gotta be

1137
01:35:45.159 --> 01:35:47.800
you gotta be really careful on that. So so I don't know, it

1138
01:35:47.840 --> 01:35:51.920
doesn't sound like we're going to World
War three though. Everything's good. But

1139
01:35:53.000 --> 01:35:56.039
again, everything was good with that
dude, right because Putin's like, nah,

1140
01:35:56.039 --> 01:36:00.319
I don't worry about it, almost
stage into coup and stuff. Totally

1141
01:36:00.399 --> 01:36:06.399
didn't mean that. And then yeah, everyone was fine, and then somebody

1142
01:36:06.399 --> 01:36:13.399
actually left the bomb over there,
this insanity. Man. The World Health

1143
01:36:13.479 --> 01:36:18.439
Organization is warning that super gonna rhea
cases are on the rise, So that's

1144
01:36:18.479 --> 01:36:25.880
good news, I guess. For
that's obviously not good news. Yeah,

1145
01:36:26.119 --> 01:36:30.640
what had been limited to certain regions
of the world. Ironically, they seem

1146
01:36:30.720 --> 01:36:35.840
to be the regions like where like
it was in like Thailand, and then

1147
01:36:35.920 --> 01:36:40.479
in the UK because a lot of
British tourists go there for like sex tourism

1148
01:36:40.560 --> 01:36:45.680
and stuff, and then like but
apparently now there's many many other hot spots

1149
01:36:45.720 --> 01:36:48.840
of this. So in case you
needed one other thing to worry about,

1150
01:36:54.840 --> 01:36:59.800
uh, super gonarrhea, which obviously
has a more technical name, is obviously

1151
01:37:00.119 --> 01:37:02.960
big concern because part of what makes
it super is not that it makes you

1152
01:37:03.079 --> 01:37:08.920
invisible or you learn to fly,
but rather it basically doesn't give a crap

1153
01:37:09.000 --> 01:37:15.560
about most antibiotics. They call it
ness saria. You shouldn't you should not

1154
01:37:15.720 --> 01:37:18.439
call it necessaria. You shouldn't have
anything that sounds like the word necessary,

1155
01:37:18.680 --> 01:37:30.279
and then followed by Ganerio. Uh. Yeah. As part of the World's

1156
01:37:30.279 --> 01:37:34.520
Sexual Health Day, which was apparently
Monday, okay, uh, the organization

1157
01:37:35.560 --> 01:37:42.960
listed several different concerns going forward,
and this was one of them. So

1158
01:37:43.079 --> 01:37:45.840
if you don't want to get it, baby, don't go to a opium

1159
01:37:45.960 --> 01:37:57.039
den slash pleasure palace in Thailand or
now twenty six other countries. So there

1160
01:37:57.079 --> 01:38:00.720
you go, all right. Eight
forty six race Agic for the weather Channel.

1161
01:38:00.760 --> 01:38:03.119
He's here, got no pants because
there's other one's were ruined by coffee.

1162
01:38:03.199 --> 01:38:10.079
But weather Man, goodness gracious,
we're doing well in terms of precipitation.

1163
01:38:10.199 --> 01:38:13.239
But the heat boy all the way
up there in the upper nineties,

1164
01:38:13.319 --> 01:38:15.039
and the Triangle yesterday, low nineties
at the try, and I think about

1165
01:38:15.039 --> 01:38:20.239
the same today. Ninety eight officially
for Raleigh, in about ninety four for

1166
01:38:20.720 --> 01:38:26.920
Green four for Winston, Sam Greensboro
might get the record at Raleigh. The

1167
01:38:27.000 --> 01:38:30.039
record is ninety eight degrees lower than
yesterday's record. At the bottom line is

1168
01:38:30.079 --> 01:38:32.880
it's hot and it's a little bit
humid too, so it'll feel over one

1169
01:38:33.000 --> 01:38:36.439
hundred still, sun MOADI bid nineties
for tomorrow. Then we'll start to see

1170
01:38:36.479 --> 01:38:41.119
some change come in for Friday with
a few showers Thutterer showers. Highs will

1171
01:38:41.119 --> 01:38:44.920
be a likely near ninety degrees with
the upper eighties. And then over the

1172
01:38:44.960 --> 01:38:47.840
weekend more seasonable temperature is closer to
normal with some scattered showers, even a

1173
01:38:47.880 --> 01:38:53.359
few thunderstorms for Saturday and Sunday.
Sunday afternoon looks like the better chance or

1174
01:38:53.399 --> 01:38:57.279
Saturday afternoon actually, so what temperature
is coming down, the rain chances might

1175
01:38:57.319 --> 01:39:00.600
go up a little, but another
couple of hot ones case he was hot

1176
01:39:00.640 --> 01:39:03.600
out there the last few days.
Certainly still hanging out this midsummertime heat here

1177
01:39:03.920 --> 01:39:06.920
late in summer. Yeah, we
can quit that. So, yeah,

1178
01:39:08.039 --> 01:39:11.199
we will do something about that.
That'd be great, all right, thank

1179
01:39:11.199 --> 01:39:14.840
you, sir, appreciate it,
Okay, and Jeff Bellinger, plus we'll

1180
01:39:14.880 --> 01:39:16.319
grab a call. We've got at
least one hanging out. We'll do it

1181
01:39:16.399 --> 01:39:30.720
next? Hang on smart Talk all
Day ninety four five w PTI in the

1182
01:39:30.880 --> 01:39:36.319
Triad and one oh six one FM
Talk in the Triangle. All right,

1183
01:39:36.439 --> 01:39:41.359
eight fifty two Bloomberg Update Now with
Jeff Bellinger. Jeff, What's going on

1184
01:39:42.319 --> 01:39:46.359
morning? Casey stocks pulled back yesterday, and it looks like investors aren't finished

1185
01:39:46.399 --> 01:39:49.880
with the selling. The now futures
are down eighty two points at the moment.

1186
01:39:50.279 --> 01:39:56.199
Home loan demand declined last week.
Mortgage bankers report total application volume was

1187
01:39:56.239 --> 01:40:00.239
down nearly three percent from the prior
week, and the banker's gay page of

1188
01:40:00.239 --> 01:40:04.119
applications for home purchases fell to a
twenty eight year low. It is expected

1189
01:40:04.159 --> 01:40:09.960
Amazon dot Com will face a new
Federal Trade Commission lawsuit, sources tell Bloomberg.

1190
01:40:10.199 --> 01:40:14.800
The agency will likely file suit later
this month. The FTEC legal action

1191
01:40:14.880 --> 01:40:19.319
this time around will reportedly target Amazon's
marketplace, where a third party merchant sell

1192
01:40:19.399 --> 01:40:26.119
products and pay commissions to Amazon.
Pandemic ere a federal aid to support daycare

1193
01:40:26.199 --> 01:40:30.119
centers set to expire at the end
of this month, and the Century Foundation

1194
01:40:30.319 --> 01:40:33.920
is sending out a warning. It
says childcare providers are already struggling with high

1195
01:40:33.960 --> 01:40:40.279
costs. And labor shortages. The
Foundation estimates as many as seventy thousand childcare

1196
01:40:40.399 --> 01:40:45.760
programs could be in danger of closing, possibly displacing more than three million children.

1197
01:40:45.239 --> 01:40:50.479
How Motivated Are You? New survey
indicates American workers motivation is slipping this

1198
01:40:50.640 --> 01:40:57.600
year. The ADP Research Institute's Employee
Motivation and Commitment Index is at the lowest

1199
01:40:57.720 --> 01:41:01.600
level since June of last year.
A piece as productivity is reduced when workers

1200
01:41:01.680 --> 01:41:06.600
are less engaged, and some of
the car rental agencies a Casey or pushing

1201
01:41:06.760 --> 01:41:13.079
electric vehicles now. For now,
most customers who prefer a traditional car or

1202
01:41:13.279 --> 01:41:16.159
suv can get one, but The
Wall Street Journal says some travelers have been

1203
01:41:16.560 --> 01:41:20.520
stuck with evs that they didn't really
want. The vehicles may not be properly

1204
01:41:20.720 --> 01:41:26.760
charged, they don't always come with
operating instructions, and finding charging stations along

1205
01:41:26.920 --> 01:41:30.199
roads or at hotels can be a
big challenge. Casey, Yeah, I

1206
01:41:30.319 --> 01:41:33.199
had when I runted a car here
not that long ago. They wanted to

1207
01:41:33.239 --> 01:41:35.640
sub me one. It wasn't the
one I thought I was going to get,

1208
01:41:35.640 --> 01:41:39.640
And I was like, right,
God, no, how about no?

1209
01:41:39.840 --> 01:41:43.920
Yeah? Because you just don't.
It'd be one thing if you're like

1210
01:41:44.079 --> 01:41:46.359
in your you know, you're in
your element, right, you know where

1211
01:41:46.359 --> 01:41:48.880
the stations are. Maybe you got
one at your house or whatever, like

1212
01:41:48.960 --> 01:41:51.760
you plan for it, but you're
in a weird city. I don't know

1213
01:41:51.800 --> 01:41:56.199
about that. But anyway, all
right, thank you, sir, appreciate

1214
01:41:56.199 --> 01:41:58.439
it. All right, have a
good day, take care. Yeah,

1215
01:41:58.479 --> 01:42:00.880
there you go. Jeff Bellinger,
Bomberg News. All right, quick phone

1216
01:42:00.920 --> 01:42:04.439
call. Doug's been hanging on on
the casino issue. Let's grab that dog.

1217
01:42:04.840 --> 01:42:09.119
What's going on. Hey, good
morning, Casey. How are you

1218
01:42:09.199 --> 01:42:14.039
today? I'm good, sir.
I just wanted to call in. Had

1219
01:42:14.119 --> 01:42:16.800
some folks alert me that you were
discussing the kid casinos. We went to

1220
01:42:18.000 --> 01:42:24.119
Raleigh yesterday and we've started a group
here in Rockingham County Citizens for Good Growth

1221
01:42:24.199 --> 01:42:31.439
in Rockingham County. I'm conservative,
but these Republicans, man, what they're

1222
01:42:31.479 --> 01:42:35.199
doing in the back rooms and the
halls of the Legislative building is ridiculous,

1223
01:42:35.319 --> 01:42:41.600
not letting the be into it from
the public on casinos and the fact that

1224
01:42:41.800 --> 01:42:45.399
Senator Burger has got money coming in
left and right from Cordish Group out of

1225
01:42:45.479 --> 01:42:50.079
Maryland. Three of the top people, the CEO of his wife and gentleman

1226
01:42:50.319 --> 01:42:56.600
named zeb Smith, giving him thirty
four thousand, five hundred dollars in November

1227
01:42:56.680 --> 01:43:00.399
and March was this year maxing out
the nation that they can give to him

1228
01:43:01.800 --> 01:43:06.560
for individual donations. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I would encourage people to

1229
01:43:06.600 --> 01:43:09.960
look at I'm sorry, I'm just
kind of pushing along because We've just got

1230
01:43:10.000 --> 01:43:12.920
a couple of minutes. So what
was I have? But you know,

1231
01:43:13.039 --> 01:43:16.000
that's not new in the sense that
you know, different business interests are gonna

1232
01:43:16.039 --> 01:43:20.960
lobby and I guess the question becomes, is it just because of the type

1233
01:43:21.000 --> 01:43:26.279
of business, Like if somebody wanted
to open a laser tag facility in Eden,

1234
01:43:28.159 --> 01:43:30.319
should the citizens even if that person
wants to go buy a piece of

1235
01:43:30.399 --> 01:43:33.359
property, should the citizens be like, nah, you can't use that piece

1236
01:43:33.399 --> 01:43:35.960
of property. I mean, don't
you kind of get out of that level

1237
01:43:36.039 --> 01:43:45.000
of democratic micromanagement that some people object
to. I don't know. The folks

1238
01:43:45.079 --> 01:43:48.199
that i'm I'm working with and the
friends that have come together, it's not

1239
01:43:49.039 --> 01:43:54.119
we're not against the gross This particular
kind of growth is not good. It's

1240
01:43:54.159 --> 01:43:57.600
not beneficial for the state. I
mean, it's going to be quick cash

1241
01:43:57.680 --> 01:44:00.000
for a casino, it's going to
be quick cash for the politicians that's got

1242
01:44:00.119 --> 01:44:08.760
investments. His friend David Cauchoo's buying
property nearby. It's not the kind of

1243
01:44:08.800 --> 01:44:12.640
growth that we need. Everybody understanding
growth that they never going to not make

1244
01:44:12.720 --> 01:44:17.720
money. I'm sorry, I'm just
trying to double's advocate you because it sounds

1245
01:44:17.720 --> 01:44:19.359
like you've got a lot of these
numbers in front of you. And I

1246
01:44:19.399 --> 01:44:23.159
appreciate that you're you know, you're
you're digging into this issue, and I

1247
01:44:23.199 --> 01:44:27.479
would encourage people to do that.
But the reality is there is a financial

1248
01:44:27.640 --> 01:44:31.600
benefit to the county. There are
jobs that are out there. The question

1249
01:44:31.720 --> 01:44:36.159
is going to be a total tally
of you know what those costs are associated

1250
01:44:36.239 --> 01:44:40.359
with it? And yeah, well
the jobs, the jobs that are going

1251
01:44:40.399 --> 01:44:44.640
to come to Rockingham Canny from this
Caseine Tho like he's stating five thousand across

1252
01:44:44.640 --> 01:44:48.359
the state with the three locations,
seventeen hundred and ninety in Rockingham Canny.

1253
01:44:48.720 --> 01:44:51.720
But the folks that come into manage
are not going to be from Rockingham Canny.

1254
01:44:51.720 --> 01:44:55.960
They're going to be people that they
bring in from their establishment that knows

1255
01:44:56.039 --> 01:44:59.439
the operation. The people here are
going to get the low hanging fruit.

1256
01:45:00.000 --> 01:45:02.159
You're not going to give them a
forty hour week jobs. Some of them,

1257
01:45:03.199 --> 01:45:06.760
I mean, they want to open
a Walmart. That's that's inherently another

1258
01:45:06.840 --> 01:45:12.159
issue that you that you have with
big box retailers. I'm just I'm just

1259
01:45:12.279 --> 01:45:15.520
saying, sir, I I really
want to see an entire balance sheet,

1260
01:45:15.560 --> 01:45:17.359
and I think the numbers that you
and your folks are pulling together, coupled

1261
01:45:17.439 --> 01:45:21.479
with whatever the argument's going to be
on the part of politicians who may support

1262
01:45:21.520 --> 01:45:25.039
this, it's going to be important. And thanks for your call for everyone

1263
01:45:25.159 --> 01:45:28.880
to, you know, look at
this stuff.
