Oh lady, good morning. Look, get a ziple a tea there,
Happy Monday. It is the cac O Day radio preference by Mike. All
right, there you go. Oh I got Lucy. Okay, then apparently
we have a phantom unscrew of locking equipment on equipment, so doesn't make any
sense. Let's you understand how are Mike's lock and unlocked? So all right,
wonderful. Uh so as we get things rolling here on Monday, it
is once again a fate. I feel like on Mondays we should just the
automatic assumption has rented different multiverse because like the last few weeks, over the
weekend there's been one of those stories around like what the hell is going on?
What? What? What? What? Even? To quote that guy
that meme? What even is that? And on Friday, shortly after okay,
thank you next gen. I appreciate that. Shortly after the show was
over, I you know, had nice little separation. There was just kind
of relaxing. Ross and I were talking off the air. Neither of us
accomplished anything of substance over the weekend, and it was fantastic. Am I
putting words in your mouth? By the way, you just said you didn't
do anything. But that's the kind of weekend I was looking for, and
then this happened. I've got the bags, my money likely, So my
box is, yeah, don't be a wet dog and say yam with a
homie, no cat, look with the grass. Look at my charts.
You're blowing money on sirpers and cars. You go into prison and on television
dogs. No one knows who you are. Keep painting on me on the
internet for my comments, sectional book carts, and I make rats off I
interest. Y'all live with your Paris nikky. Take some notes. I just
did this for fun. All my people download this. Let's get a Billboard
number one, the same rat, the same money car. No, no,
nope, Okay, I have to admit when I saw the little snippet
first, and I'm already this is where I mentally am at. Tell me
if this is where you're at, I've already transitioned to that's AI when I
look at stuff and I like, that was never AI was always a secondary
mindset. I I have made the transition to where trolls be trolling, and
I'm going to assume it's trolling if it doesn't fit, and then I have
to go prove it's not, which maybe healthy thing. But I found myself
going there on a couple videos last week were a couple of things I saw,
neither of which turned out to be any sort of deep fake, but
I went I went there, and I don't even know what to think of
that because it gets weird or not. Only is Ben Shapiro what do they
call it? They called featuring. I never understood this. Bro's helping me
out. You you were in music longer than I was. I didn't get
into the meat of featuring. But featuring's the thing now, right. It's
been that way for a while, right right right, And I was a
little I kind of you know, the last I'm trying to remember the last
feature, you know, it was that I remember that album where it was
like it included Santana in Matchbox Twenties, Rob Thomas and a bunch of others.
Like that was kind of at the end of my music radio career,
and that was kind of And now it's just like, if there's a popular
hip hop track, somebody's featuring, right, So in this case, I
guess Ben Shapiro would be featuring. And I have to admit I'm not super
familiar with this rapper. I've seen clips of the dude who is has given
him, you know, the platform there, and his songs are are rap
music for all practical purposes, pretty good in the sense of the genre and
not about slapping hose. He he definitely the rapper definitely approaches it from a
different angle, so i'd be I guess that'd be the way to say it.
But I'm not as educated in it, so I have only seen a
couple other things. But he's he has identity, and he is more I
don't even know if he's signed, but like he's got a gazillion followers,
and I guess in this day and age, I mean, there's this break
even point where you're better off not signing with management. So yeah, McDonald
is his atom. McDonald is his name. By the way, the song
is called Facts, and it's not just that snippet where he's you know,
he's in a little part of it. I mean, Ben Shapiro has the
number one hip hop track and the number one song in America by sales right
now, beating out Taylor Swift, who I understand is headed to the super
Bowl. By the way, I was I was informed of that over the
weekend multiple times, and then every single time this morning when I was just
thumbing through the you know where I normally go for the show to see if
there's anything from overnight, every single publication had a picture of not the team,
not Mahome and crew, not Andy Reid, the coach, you know,
high five and his guys if he can get his arm up. There
didn't have that. It's got Travis Kelcey and Taylor Swift kissing midfield. Which
is that going to be a thing at halftime with the super I don't even
know. I'm not sure how it goes, but I guess I'm sure of
how it goes. For Detroit. Man, I'm not piling on. I'm
really not. You're in the NFC North, so there's a little bit there,
but never a traditional thing. I I like, both games are going
to be a throwaway. Yesterday and then that got crazy man Detroit letting evaporate
a seventeen point lead. There was some controversy whether they should have kicked a
field goal. In hindsight, they probably should have all of that stuff,
and that sucks, man. But to whoever the piece of garbage on Fox
was, who said, oh, it's they've tied the largest margin of getting
your ass kicked in the second half in the NFC Championship game with the Minnesota
Vikings. Detroit gave up a seventeen point lead and the Vikings gave up a
seven point lead and in the first half and then they never let again.
So no, now we did get drug buddy. It was thirty eight seven,
but very poor research, sir, so do better. And I can't
remember which which idiot it was, because I was kind of walking around doing
some stuff and the game or the post game was on in the in the
periphery, but yeah, that was the weekend. So yeah, it's Taylor
Swift versus the forty nine ers, which is interesting when you consider the fan
base and the memes have begun. So this is probably why the New York
Times is trying to make Taylor Day in that op ed. Remember I don't
we'll see, but you know, San Francisco obviously big market chiefs, obviously
have a huge following, and Taylor's involved, and you know, if you
were one to sit there and say it's rigged, arguably this is kind of
best case scenario for the NFL am I wrong out of the four teams.
I don't think that I am. You got San Francisco, a storied franchise.
You've got you know, the young, exciting quarterback came out of nowhere,
mister irrelevant. You have the huge media market and if he loves that,
and while Kansas City isn't a huge media market, you got Taylor Swift.
Man, you got Taylor Swift. So you got that whole angle,
and you have a bunch of people who didn't really care about football walking around
in brand new Kansas City chiefs gear. How many times for those of you
who have went to an establishment to watch football? Right, you gather with
your buddies, I got, you know, one hundred TVs in there,
you elbow in soon you tell your wife you're gonna have two beers. That's
a lie. And you know all around you are fellow football fans. There's
a couple of good places, both in the Triad triangle. How many of
you have seen women in Taylor Swift. I'm customized jerseys, that's the thing,
and I have seen two this year. So you know, you order
the jersey and you get whatever name you want on the back. You put
Swift. Although I understand the NFL is now, because of course it'll be
a licensing thing. I saw somebody raising some stink over and I don't think
they stop to it. But I've seen two of those and at no point,
at no point did I and maybe I'm wrong, but we assume things.
Did I get the impression that they really cared about the game. Just
watch a body language and the lack of looking at the screen and them leaving
early in one case. In one of them, I saw so I don't
know, I don't know, but you know, chi ching. So there
you go. All right, six seventeen coming up on the show. Oh
man, got lots of audio for you today, lots of audio. We
have the cured Meats bandit, which I'm just saying, if you got a
neighborhood nuisance, I'd be down with this. And I saw a lot of
people. I saw a lot of different takes. If you have you seen
the video of a high school senior going to the school board meeting and talking
about quote book banning, it's it's more so than just your your you know,
your brainwash kid from TikTok showing up and being like, oh, they're
trying to burn the books whatever, because you can write that off to.
Oh, I guess depending on what you think, you can write that off
to the right, you can write that off to. They're not banning books,
they're curating in a library based on age appropriateness or any of that.
But I I the people who are defending this girl. I don't care what
her take is. This is this is way more than that. And I'm
gonna play the whole thing if you haven't heard it, and explain why I
think it's it's worse and again, not based on their opinion. We're all
allowed to have opinions. Many of our opinions will shift over the course of
our life. That being said, it's kind of dark man, and I
don't know what the relationship sounds like. It's a good relationship, so we'll
get into all that as well. Right now, it is six nineteen Kcoday
Radio program hang On one six one FM Talk PTI, two stations driving the
best in talk. This is Casey O Day and Carolina's Morning News. All
right, Good morning, six twenty three, and welcome back. It is
the Cacy O Day Radio program. Oh boy, we're gonna start this one.
I had a couple things that are a little more serious, and I
try to push those just a little. Does I understand getting that brain working
in the first few minutes ain't easy, But I will start with this this
young lady here. I saw this, and I saw people debating it,
and frankly, I thought it was going to be another one of those videos
where she's just like, it's just kool aid, but doesn't know the kool
aid. Saw it on TikTok, the teacher influenced, you know, whatever
it is. But she seemed she strikes me as a well spoken, probably
fairly intelligent young lady, and she is questioning what it is, she believes
what it is she thinks, and she's somewhat doing it through where she's trying
to evaluate, like how did I arrive at this? And there's two clear
separations. One she feels that everything that she thought she knew was propaganda from
her father. I'm going to play the audio, but it's gonna stretch over
this segment in next segment, so just hang with me. Propaganda from her
father and you know, rebelling upon that because you know, you think,
you know everything is a hallmark of being a teenager, and it can it
can manifest in political views, it can manifest and just basically you know the
rules and and how that goes. But this is this is deeper and darker.
So let's get into this. Because people saying, oh, it's just
normal rebellion, I think are missing a key part of this. Let's let's
let's play the first part. Chap In high school in my senior year,
and I have attended schools in the Chapin cluster since kindergarten. This is the
first District five board meeting i've attended, though I did watch the public participation
portion of the meeting that took place on January eighth. I was inspired to
come and speak today by my English teachers. In my high school years.
I have come to know most of the teachers in the department and found that
they are a brilliant and kind group of people who truly do act in the
interest of every student. I hold the utmost respect for them, and they
have taught me. As they have taught me so much in academics, extracurriculars,
and lifelong ethics. I am incapable of fully understanding the stress and responsibility
felt by teachers, parents, and the members of this board. I have
no years of experience being an educator. I have no college degree, I'm
not a parent. I'm barely even an adult. I'm just a high school
student. I'm here to make a point about the dangerous consequences of book banning
in public education. But I first want to share some of my backgrounds so
that you may get an idea of why this is so important to me.
Okay, all right, Like I said, well spoken, she seems confident
up there. That's good. That'll serve her, you know, going through
And I guess she goes to college and perhaps says the forward facing I'm I'm
I'm cool with all that. And obviously she's using the term book banning.
But again you can couch that with well, you know, you go to
the internet, that's what you see. It's where she goes next that I
I this is what separates it unfortunate to have both of my parents present and
involved in my everyday life. They support me, care for me, and
I love a comfortable life. I love both of my parents dearly. But
tonight I would like to focus on my father and then committently detrimental effect he
has had on my life. He's a conservative, Republican and a Christian.
Okay, all right, and that's going to be important. And then her
actual diet tribe. We're going to play that just because it's it's a little
longer, it's about two minutes, but scene center right. I don't like
this. I'm speaking out. I recognize that my experience is limited to being
a student, and I love my English teachers, which is that's good.
Hopefully you have some some teachers that inspire you, and I think we remember
the good teachers that we hadn't Again, not a problem, but this right
here, stet it up unfortunate to have both of my parents present and involved
in my everyday life. They support me, care for me, and I
love a comfortable life. I love both of my parents dearly. But tonight
I would like to focus on my father and the committently detrimental effect he has
had on my life. He's a conservative, Republican and a Christian. The
detrimental effect. Again, comfortable, sounds like she's getting a good education.
All of that. Just wait for the ungratefulness. It's happened. This is
one O six one FM Talk in the Triangle and News Talking ninety four to
five WPTI and the Triad all right, let's go ahead and get back to
this. Let us get back to this. So this young woman, she
is, she's eighteen, I'm assuming she's a senior, decided that she wanted
her voice heard on the quote unquote book banning. Right, so book banning
is the term. But again, no books are banned, they're just not
available for age appropriate reasons. And the argument should be there, right,
I do think this is appropriate. I don't think can especially she's eighteen.
She can go, she go buy whatever she wants, but you put it
under book banning because that sounds more not to eat. So here we are.
So I played the first part where she kind of talked about how she
in her opinion, when she was young, she was dumb, she didn't
question stuff, and then she had an epiphany in high school and realized realized
the problem is not her. The problem and all of her thoughts lie not
at the feet of both parents because she actually singles out one but dad.
And this is again, want's to play this the next audio. I want
to This is different from just some kid going in there and their parent in
the back shaking their head, going, well they're young, which is fine,
Like that's everyone expects that life cycle, right, not all the kids,
but you know how many of you had a kid to go off to
college and you come back and you're like, I'm sorry, the what,
the who? What now? But this is personal, man, and I'm
gonna play the short cut, and then here's the long cut. I want
you to listen to how she explains her life has gone unfortunate to have both
of my parents present and involved in my everyday life. They support me,
care for me, and I love a comfortable life. I love both of
my parents dearly. But tonight I would like to focus on my father and
then committatively detrimental effect he has had on my life. He's a conservative,
Republican and a Christian I am. I don't know if the parents are sitting
in there, but I mean, what a lead up? All right?
Here we go into the meet. For as long as I can remember,
he has instilled his political and religious values in me. As a child who
unquestioningly admired her father, I took him at his word and as one sided
bigoted beliefs became ingrained in my identity. When the topic of the twenty sixteen
presidential election arose at the fourth grade, lunch table, I would recite the
arguments my father made in favor of Trump. I ignorantly endorsed a man who
would have me suffer and even die in the name of political agendas at ten
years old, I'd know it, exposing me to diverse political perspectives. One
might argue that a fourth grade classroom is a fourth grade classroom is not the
place for political discussions, and if one is to arise, the teachers should
extricate themselves from the situation and dismiss the topic entirely. If the classroom is
not the place for such discussions, then where the home. My parents failed
me in that area of education, and I can assure you that mine were
not the only ones. If fourth grade students are old enough to hold conversations
about politics and current events themselves, and they are old enough to hear to
base that represent both sides and incorporate a variety of viewpoints. All right,
I'm sorry, I just realized I wrote the wrong time, so I sent
that to you, but you nailed it, So I stop it there.
All right, What the hell? I'm sorry, I don't look, I
don't have a kid. What the hell you didn't just say I used to
think this, and now I think this. You didn't. You didn't say
that. You talked about this, this life, this very comfortable life that
your parents give. I saw some people pay for what it's worth. I
saw some people commenting on on There was a local post of it, and
then some comments under it, and they were saying that her father is very
successful and have a very good life. I don't know. She says she
has a comfortable life, so take it at that. Uh, yeah,
you can tell she's listen, I'm from lower class. We can sense her
own yeah, yeah, yeah. This girl is rich, spoiled, and
she has no problem. So she's creating some to give herself an identity.
That's what's happening. And her and her dad should not pay for her college
well because they maybe she'll have to work for something and appreciate it. She
goes on to sit there and say too, and I'm not going to play
at all for that. But she basically says that her teachers never, she
never knew their she never she never got any politics from them, right,
because she's up there and she's like, oh, my dad only you know,
constantly's talking about politics, and well, that's what your teachers have been
doing to you and apparently it worked. Yeah, if she doesn't feel that
she's What she doesn't realize is even if you thought, even if you're only
one teacher, and even if you think she that teacher was non political,
and maybe they were. There's a hundred different influences every day. We talk
about them, right, we talk about you know what? Hang on,
just say I'm sorry, I gotta I gotta make room for this. Sorry
Florida man, you're off the button. Bar Ross, will you put the
satan thing up? Please? We didn't get to it. We're gonna get
to this. Do you have a thousand influences around you? And those influences
is are magnetized, magnified anytime you interact with pop culture, you watch uh,
you watch an award show, you follow any Hollywood or music person,
with a few exceptions in things that frankly, you just you don't expect there
are you know, there's a beef right now. I saw a guy who
speaks Japanese and he's got a YouTube channel and so he speaks Japanese. He's
a big anime dude, and I'm not into anime. That's not what hooked
me. Here. What hooked me is he was pointing out that the English
dubs and the English translations and close captioning on a lot of very famous UH
series that have now made their way to Netflix or various streaming services in quite
a few instances have been changed to incorporate either either change because they felt something
was problematic, or to incorporate all new stuff, like characters claiming that they're
non binary, which is not even a discussion that's having. They just literally
changed it. So this is hitting you everywhere all the time. And that's
fine, but you can't sit there and argue this. This this couple,
especially my father gave me this very comfortable life. He believes that. And
by the way, the fact that she's even there. I don't know if
she ran away from home or whatever, But why do I have this lingering
feeling that he probably was just like, all right, do what you're gonna
do, didn't preclude her from it, any of it. I don't know
the relationship. I'm guessing there, but it's hitting you over and over and
over. Uh. What is is this? Uh? I can't remember is
this on Hulu or net flicks, hold On or Amazon? Sorry? This
is a cut. I didn't get to the other day or last week,
so I don't have the story in front of me. Hang on, uh
Prime this is on Prime Video. And again this is more about secular non
secular here, but this is this is a show dealing with religion kind of.
I think, Ross, I gotta play the whole thing, don't I
the because it's just that it's it's something except I'm not gonna be watching.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is Uh, this is an animated show.
Does it have a maturity rating? It's an animated show. Here we
go, you do do do do? I just want to be clear who
it's aimed at, and it is about Satan kind of in this case,
Yeah, it is TV mature. Okay, all right, this is the
intro to the show. This is the Hey, how you doing? This
is a new show. Let me and let me violate the rule of show
not tell and give you a two minute oratory on what's up? I hope
you're all sitting down. Ross is currently prone strapped to one of those gurnies,
so just out of sheer safety because he knows I'm going to play this,
and he had to dub it in and almost was almost tragic and this
is just hey, this is a hot new show. By the way,
the rating on this thing is seven point six, which on IMDb is pretty
good. What is Shawshank like? Eight? All right, here is the
intro. Once upon a time there was a glowing city protected by golden gates
known as Heaven. He was ruled by beings a pure light, angels that
worshiped good and shielded all from evil. Lucifer was one of these angels.
Correct, he was a dreamer with fantastical ideas were all agation, but he
was seen as a troublemaker by the elders of Heaven, for they felt his
way of thinking was dangerous to the order of their world. So he watched
as the angels began to expand the universe in their ways. From the dust
of earth they created Adam and Lilith equals as the first of mankind. But
all right, so the look the lil of thing is not new, I
guess it. You know, if kids were to watch this, and maybe
they don't understand the totality and some of the maybe they'd be a little confused.
But again, all right, continue. Despite this, Adam demanded control
and Lilith refused to submit to his will, she fled the garden, drawn
in by her fierce independence. Lucifer found her, and the two rebellious dreamers
fell deeply in love, belave that Ross the original girl Boss, I don't
need no man. Together they wished to share the magic of free will with
you, humanity, offering the fruit of knowledge to Adam's new bride, Eve,
who gladly accepted. But this gift came with a curse, for with
this single act of disobedience, evil finally found its way into Earth. With
it a new realm of darkness and sin, and the order Heaven had worked
to maintain was shattered. As punishment for their reckless act, Heaven cast Lucifer
and his love into the dark pit he had created, never allowing him to
see the good that came from humanity, only the cruel and the wicked.
Ashamed, Lucifer lost his will to dream, but Lilith thrived, empowering to
mankind with her voice and her songs. And as the numbers of Hell grew,
so did its power. Threatened by this, Heaven made a truly heartless
decision that every year they would send down an army an extermination to ensure hell
and its sinners could never rise against them what was and her dream was passed
down to their precious daughter, the Princess of health. Don't worry, mom,
I'll make you proud. Oh that's you. Okay, okay, all
right, all right, man, it's so weird people have these conspiracy theories
that, like, you know, Hollywood is controlled by devil worshippers. It's
so weird. He's the victim. Ross. Come on, man, it's
so obvious the way, oh, the way she explained it. There,
what the whole I was gonna say, what the holy hell is that?
But look, then you've won. What in the world? Man? And
I'm not saying that's what triggered high school girl there who hates her dad and
probably still wants her college paid for? But what the hell? All right,
Look, I don't have kids. I don't have kids, but I
am curious about this as a parent. It's I understand the kids are going
to bell and I mean this I don't want I just don't want your instant
reflection on it, right, I don't want you to judge when you're you
know, a little upset because you're like, holy crap. I want you
to filter it as if it was your kid. And you know she's eighteen,
so they probably have planers. She probably been accepted to a school.
Payments may have been made. Would you honestly say no to her at that
point? Would you not? Or would you sit there and go you know
what, She'll get older, she'll get over it. She called you a
bigot. No, she's saying this now. People are like, oh,
well, if you stop making the payment, you're going to create like this
divide. That divide is already there. If she goes away to college,
some crazy liberal school, which she's probably gonna go to, Yeah, that
divide is going to get even bigger. But maybe if she just asked to
actually work for something, she'll appreciate her dad. Well, I don't know,
why would you pay for that? Why would you pay to create more
separation between you and your child? Well, that is the argument you probably
were. Well, but then shall probably cut you off, and I think
people will it's gonna happen anyway. That's gonna happen anyway at this point,
that's the track she's on. Yeah, but you don't tell yourself that if
you're just hoping for whatever you're hoping for Look, you know, we made
a lot of assumptions. Like I said, we had a family member went
through really bad drug addiction, and it was like there were decisions that were
made in the course of that not there. Some of it was cut off,
not cut off. And I saw people who normally ruled with an iron
fist who were just they were they were enabling to some extent, they were
enabling because the alternative was not going to be there, and they won't talk
to me. And so it's a powerful emotion. But yeah, yeah,
you're spot on. It's already there. So who the hell knows? And
by the way, anyone watching that Amazon show, Very Curious six forty eight,
Hang on Your Day, Smarter one O six one FM Talk and News
Talk ninety four or five w PTI more with Casey starts now all right,
six fifty five, let's get into it. We're gonna start with Lisa.
Lisa, good morning. Now you want to talk about this young woman at
the school board meeting, Go right ahead. I think you got it a
little bit mixed up. What I was calling in about is I was telling
laws that in nineteen sixty four, I went to North gram Elementary School down
Lance County and above all the water fountains. The teachers that put up posters
that said, we want clean water, we don't want gold water, and
they had pictures of glasses of clear water and then glasses of something you know,
murky looking water with its swirling and above all the water fountains. And
you know, at that time, I was on the second floor. I
don't know if they had it down lower for the you know, for the
younger kids, but I do know so I was a lever. Well,
so I guess folks would say, well, let me, let me devil's
advocate as I do. Folks would say, why is that deeply political to
want clean water? Because it very because it properly said bout Kennedy. Oh
okay, all right, Well see that's that's what I'm trying to get to.
Because if it was just, hey, we would love clean water,
I think people would overlook it. It's the Kennedy part obviously attached to the
foe. Yeah. I just want to make sure that the audience understood that.
Yeah. But this, uh, I what this young lady says that
her her teachers have never even expressed any of their political views, and what
is unfortunate. To your point is, you don't have to be sitting there
with somebody and having them tell you this is how it is, like she
claims her father does, but it sounds like he provides her a lot of
freedom. You just the influence is coming from everywhere, and whether you're drinking
water, you know, from the fountain, thanks for the call there,
at least I appreciate it. Or you're watching a show, or you're trying
to watch a Star Wars movie because you're like, ah, this is gonna
be exciting, and then you know that sets in, or anything news,
listening to quote unquote nonpartisan bureaucrats speak about stuff, everything is attempting to influence
you. And I don't just mean politically. It's everywhere. It's advertising,
it's marketing, it's influencers. And the sooner people understand that, even from
a non political perspective, the better off they're going to be. But admittedly,
when you're young, i'd like I didn't comprehend that to the extent that
I do now, and that's fine. But if this is this is the
hill you want to die on with your father again, I can't believe he's
gonna pay for your schooling. But I also, and I really do,
I also worry about that relationship because to Ross's point, people who say she
made them just cut off contact or resent you more, they're probably right.
And you know, you got to juggle that in your mind. What do
you do with that? Our phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four. We get some more calls coming up here in just a
few Also, uh oh, we got a fundraiser to tell you about.
So dig deep in those pockets. And let's talk protests, shall we.
We'll sup my notice over the weekend to hang on all right, Good morning
everybody, and welcome. It is seven oh six here on the Kcoday radio
program Monday Edison our number two. We played some audio. If you're just
joining us, I give you just a couple of snippets, and then we
get some calls and lots to get to. But I was normally I bypass
a lot of this stuff just because it turns into a fire hose and kids
showing up to a school board meeting and you know, embracing the woke like
I didn't even move the needle anymore. And I've often wonder what do the
parents think, and maybe the parents are the ones who encourage them. Maybe
the parents are absent. Maybe who knows. But the thing that stuck out
here is the espousing by this student about her family, and specifically her portrayal
of her father after pointing out that he is very involved in her life obviously
financially supports her. But above and beyond that, it actually, in a
weird way, it sounds like they love each other and have a good relationship,
and those can be mutually exclusive. But then it blows my mind where
she doesn't just say she disagrees. Why she even brought her parents up is
wildly unnecessary. Just have an opinion. But the cred here, right is
the rejection of her father. Right. That's the meat of this right here,
This is why, this is why it is different, unfortunate to have
both of my parents present and involved in my everyday life. They support me,
care for me, and I love a comfortable life. I love both
of my parents dearly. But tonight I would like to focus on my father
and then committantly detrimental effect he has had on my life. He's a conservative,
Republican and a Christian, Okay, all right? And you know,
maybe if she left it at that, But no one it's a detrimental effect,
is it? Because I got to tell you, I've I think we've
all been around people whose parents have had a quote unquote detrimental effect on their
life. And this ain't what it looks like. This looks like this looks
like a guy went to school with who was covered in cigarette like it was
an after school special, but for real, real and eventually was taken put
into foster care. And like his parents had a detrimental in that case,
I think it was just his mom by then. She had a pretty detrimental
effect on his life. And he's still he still was able to make some
of himself, So save me that. But you went further than that,
you said this. As long as I can remember, he has instilled his
political and religious values in me. Dad's Catholic, by the way, is
noted in the story. As a child who unquestioningly admired her father. I
took him out his word, and as one sided, bigoted beliefs became ingrained
in my identity. When the topic of the twenty sixteen presidential election arose at
the fourth grade lunch table, I would recite the arguments my father made in
favor of Trump. I ignorantly endorsed a man who would have me suffer and
even die in the name of political agendas. All right, I just I
can't where the hell does she get that? By the way, because she
just said that. She goes out to say, teachers and what drew you
to this conclusion and on the cusp of adulthood that he wants you to suffer
and die? Did you make that up all on your own or do you
think somebody influenced you? Because I feel like it's probably the second one,
Jamal, what's going on? Good morning to you? Hey, Casey,
can you hear me loud and clear? Can you hear me? Okay?
Number one, Casey Ross hit it on the head. She is a spoiled,
entitled, rotten bract, That's what she is. And see what you're
listening to is those parents whose kids misbehave They shut the doors in their house
and they stop around when you tell them, don't do this, and they
get mad. No, Because I'm gonna tell you something, I got two
daughters. My daughter would not in home wildest dream do something like that,
because I have already instilled something called resect and fear and my kids what they
know. You disrespect daddy. Daddy will tell your high part up wherever I
see I was raising Jamal hang on. I want to ask a question here
just because I think somebody who doesn't like you or this conversation saying it,
well, you know that's abusive because she has to be in lockstep. You
don't have a problem if your daughters think something different than you, as long
as they're respectful about it, I'm assuming, right, Yeah, Actually,
yes, I do have a problem because here's the thing. On my own
we raising straight standards of morality, and we're raising our daughters to be women
and Christians. See, the problem is too much of this crap step.
Then in the nineteen eighties when they start tearing down Christians home. See you
notice Christians have to allow stuff ta in their homes we don't believe in.
But you got these second lists and these non Christians will allow stuff that don't
allow stuff in that home. Okay, So no, you don't come in
my home because you're I won't train you up in the way you should go.
So no, you just don't think, no way you do, because
there's certain rules in this house you don't break. Now, when you get
eight, when you get married and older and on your own. And let's
say my daughter was crazy enough to say something, I will cut her fun
in from her college. She could not the pall. Yeah, I'm not
talking about her calling you a bigot. I mean, that's that's what brings
the story to this. I mean, that's what's so over the top here
where they purport to have a good relationship, but you want your daughter the
years to craig if I'm wrong. A good teacher like a good parent,
except there's one big difference. I think both contribute to a kid's ability to
gather information and learn. I think that's one of the most valuable tools that
I've had teachers teach me and parents. The difference is parents are going to
have more skin in the game, and they're not just going to tell you
how to arrive at it. They're going to try to lead you to what
has made them successful. You're family strong, all of that, and I
think she's she doesn't recognize the emotional side of that relationship with her father because
she now values a couple English teachers who may be very good teachers, far
more to the person who brought her into this world and has cared for her
for eighteen years. It's bonkers. So here's the thing. He here's the
thing, Casey number one. Would those parents allowed those teachers actually to have
that kind of influence When my kids come home for school, but they go
to a great Christian school. My kids go to a Christian academy. When
they come home. I still debrief my children the same way. When I
was in the army, if I went somewhere, we can't hey what happened?
We sit at the dinner table. How was your day? How was
your day? What would you talk now? This lady she bought a story
and let me tell you this case. When I was younger, we wrote
Jesse Hams in the fifth grade at Wilson Elementary, we wrote Jesse ham Senator
Jesse Hams to ask him, don't discontinue you free lunch. He was harming
black kids. My father hit the roof, came out to the school,
talked to my principal, talk to my teacher, talk to my guidance counsel.
And he told my teacher and my principal, if you ever teach my
child's tragh again. Al when somebody is going to jail, and somebody's going
to the hospital. That's what my daddy told the teacher, the principal,
and the guidance council because they made us in the fifth grade, right,
Jesse to him to tell him, don't take away free lunch. They never
did that again, if they know, none of my teachers ever talked taught
politics around me because my daddy established a law. And the law is,
you don't talk politics with my kids. That's his job. You don't teach
something different from the way I teach my kids at home, that's his job.
Now, once my daddy established that, people knew if Jama's children,
Jama's or Daddy came to that school because you Une did some and all they
are coming. So no, the parents have to establish that. And yes,
a child's job is not to teach the parents what to think. A
parents' job is to instruct the child and how to think and want to live.
Now, if they stray away, they do. But a parent's job
and so many people have this problem. They allowed their children. All gonna
let my children think what they want to think. No, no, that
was not a thing. In the fifties, sixties and seventies were built the
black family. The black family used to have structure, We had morality,
we had standards, and those standards were passed down from grandmama, granddaddy to
parent to child. But in the eighties where Oprah winfriend, all these people
who've never had kids come telling people how to do with kids. I'm like,
you don't have kids, but you're writing books about kids. So they
start coming with these books how to raise kids, and they them all,
I'm not gonna let you get away with that. I don't have kids and
I'm the best parent, Okay, I like, I got it all figured
out, man. So yeah, just saying, you gotta you gotta make
you gotta make room for that. I'm a genius on this topic. I
gotta roll them all. I gotta get at least more, but appreciate it.
Okay, Yeah, yeah, yeah, you got a problem to your
kids, just asked. But I'll give you the right advice because there's no
consequences for me, so makes it makes it a lot easier. Dallas,
what's up, hey man? How you doing today? Casey good? I
just want to throw throw something out to you. This is not just happening
with children as far as eighteen year olds or teenagers. I have a couple
of adult daughters that have gone completely woke, and basically my wife and I
have not been allowed to see our grandchildren for a year and a half.
We can't talk to them. Okay, I was just gonna ask the incident,
but it's I was gonna ask. Was there like a singular bloo?
Well no, Well, I will tell you this. We had a disagreement
which one of the one of them, Yeah, and it was really a
misunderstanding. But when we were approached by basically they wouldn't even talk to us.
They sent their husbands to talk to us and tell us that we were
toxic because of our beliefs, that our conservative Christian beliefs our toxic masculinity,
all the things that I was taught growing up. Yeah, I can ask
a question the husbands. The husbands that showed up, I'm sure they were
like kind of navy seal looking Adonna's students or well, it didn't happen at
all and at one time like that. But I've been told by both of
them over a period of time, just we don't want see in our life.
In fact, one of them predicted that we would grow old and lonely
and miserable because we would never see our child grandchildren again, because we be
little women. When I say things, Hey, listen, here's belittle in
women. When I tell my grandson not to hit girls, don't hit girls,
his mother gets upset because we don't hit anybody. There's no there's no
differentiation anytime we would talk about anything at the time where they know it like
little lessons you would learn from your grandparents. Yeah, the little lessons that
you learned and I learned from our grandparents. They're invaluable to us as far
as character and who we are as Christians and Americans. I mean literally,
I don't know how it happened, but basically, they hate America, they
hate God, they hate It's like all of a sudden and it was happening
right under our we were We were basically oblivious to a lot of this.
Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, dude, I'm sorry, man,
that's just that sounds awful. And I think we've talked on the show
where it's like the where you saw people right around the time Trump rolled in
that I told you, and this does not equal what you're going through.
That's your grandkids there, but I had someone i'd known all my life,
where I considered my second mom is just decided. She goes, I can't
talk to you anymore, and she just cut me off on social media.
And I didn't see it was my point either. So it's so shocking when
it happens. I'm so sorry for you. Man. Well here's yeah,
we had the Trump signs and we had all I mean, I'm very vocal.
I stand up for what I believe in, and I've made mistakes in
my life and I'm not perfect. But basically it's it's like you're going to
be banished from our lives forever because your thoughts and your ways and your They
couldn't even put a finger on it. There was no incident, nobody was.
I mean, we've we've done everything that we were taught growing up to
raise our children right. And so I'm not calling you to give you my
story and can plam calling you to encourage other people out there. It is
happening too that it's not you, it's it's going on. I mean,
this is the culture we're in now, and it's real. Well, Imber
Obama, remember under Obama with Pajama Boy, do you remember Pajama Boy,
right where the marketing healthcare it was. There was a moment there that was
where they ran a series. They had like a whole ad campaign and they
put out talking points and those talking points were Remember the whole flux of that
campaign was you're going to have your family corner during Thanksgiving and Christmas. So
uh, you know, be my disciple for universal healthcare or Obamacare. By
the time it took hold, and it was the weaponize, it was the
weaponizing well hold on Dallas. It was the weaponizing of the family there that
you know, you started to inch away because people used to put up with
relatives with different opinions and maybe justure they're not sitting next to them, you
know, but this is different. What's wrong with telling your kids, Hey,
your old grandpa is kind of nuts. You don't really know, but
we love him because he's your Grandpa's what's better than an old crazy cooter in
your in your you know what I'm saying. Yeah, that's the way we
did. We always everybody's got the crazy uncle, or don't get him started.
I don't know. I just figured I just realized I'm the crazy uncle.
So all right, thanks for that. So I got it. Now.
Now we're in people just shut each other off. Yeah yeah, well
look nobody wants to. It's it's tough to hear things you dissent with the
way, and thanks for the call there, Dallas. The way that it
used to be was you just roll your eyes and make sure, like I
said, make sure you're not seated next to that dude on Thanksgiving. But
you know, having a relative who is out there, even if you want
to portray it, is that that's that's the hallmark of a family unit.
You're tell me there's not one crazy person in your in your immediate family or
you know, let's go cousins kind of stuff too, So there's not one
ross. You don't have to name them. You got one person that's hours
of entertainment just when you talk about them from a family perspective. But they're
little nuts absolutely, So yeah, that's h And again each situation is going
to be different, but just I just don't want to be around them.
And it really tracks down to I don't want to be around people who are
going to say things that I might disagree with. So it became not just
the infiltration of traditional family things like hey, preach to your family Thanksgiving and
Christmas. But it then morphed into you know, you shouldn't even have to
listen to this, and you see it the influence a thousand ways talking about
climate stuff. Remember news agencies. Well, we're not gonna we're not gonna
have people rebutting any of this stuff. COVID same way, no people rebutting
it. That's the mindset. That's where we are hang on show. After
the show, it's on the iHeart radio app. Search cacoday for the podcast
on the iHeart radio app. Yeah, so we got that bigger conversation with
kids and behavior and things that they do, and especially when people are younger.
I mean, you know, the expectation is how they think it.
Fourteen is gonna be different than twenty one than thirty one. And you know,
the things you go through in life, they obviously shape who you are.
And some people learn. Some people don't because they don't either don't care,
or it's you know, it's enough to get by, so they're fine.
And you know, here's my take. If you're getting by and you're
not bothering anyone, I have no I'm not gonna sit there and tell you
to work on yourself. You do you man, if you're not bothering me
and I'm not having to pay for it, do whatever you want. But
here's the thing. It's only once you realize, hey, maybe I should
do something different, that you're ever going to really change and that that also
involves you figuring out your percentage of your liability and whatever bad choice you're making.
Look, sometimes people make bad choices and they still made the choice,
but there was there was influence, there were unique circumstances. Whatever, it
is, all right with that in mind, let me ask let me ask
a question. Ross. Did you ever have a period in your life when
you'd say you were irresponsible with money? Sure? Did? And how did
that? How did that manifest? Right? They manifested with you opening the
app on your phone going how do I have two dollars in here? What
happened? Right? Why not change that? This isn't fun? Yeah?
Yeah. And now obviously your mindset on money, if you're married, you
got the family, the mortgage, all that, it's it's it's I'm assuming
it's fundamentally changed, all of these experiences, But you recognize that at the
root of that was the decisions that you were making This is not me scolding
Ross because I'm the same way. I still make your responsible decisions. And
part of it is I have less responsibility to other people than say Ross does,
or many other people do. But I still recognize I have gotten a
whole lot better. But I recognize the twenty something year old me who's like,
yeah, for sure, Yeah, you just want to drive to Reno,
which was a thing that happened, and then we realized we don't have
any money. All right, we're dumb. My buddy's brother lived in Reno,
he had so like, we just had to get to Reno. It
was a whole thing, but like, it was a very responsible thing.
But here I was thinking that that was because I and my best friend at
the time, I thought that we made the decision. But now researchers would
like you to know it's not you, And I'm telling you. Every time
there is a behavior, a negative behavior, or something that complicates individuals' lives
where there is who clearly responsibility at least a percentage of it that lies with
the individual. The more that we go now, no, you have no
responsibility, the less inclined people are to change things because they don't think they
can. I don't think they can make the right decisions because they have idiot
researchers. You're ready for this. Money dysmorphia is alive and well, and
many unknowingly suffer from it without even knowing what it is. All right,
So you have a disease. You got a disease. It's not you.
It's that South Park episode where Kyle's father was like, he goes to AA,
He's like, I have a disease. But then he's like everything and
there's a there's a virgin Mary statue. I just realized I can't tell you
what happens in that episode. Yeah, watch that un Grown But yes,
now you're gonna be shocked to learn that scientists have noticed a few coinkitings,
coincidences. You ready a study. The new study suggests young people are most
likely to suffer from money dysmorphia. So let me get this straight. So
the younger you are, the less experience you have with money or at the
very least you know, paying all your bills on your own, and those
folks are likely to be less responsible with it. And you had then you
had to go out and you had to put a clinical title on this thing.
By the way, if you for those of you out there who maybe
you overspend and it's a conversation and your your relationship or whatever. Good,
there you go. You got money dysmorphia in fact, all right, so
wait hold on, here is here's how it's described. Money dysmorphia is defined
as having a distorted view of one's finances that could lead them to make poor
decisions, like I don't know all the clout chasing stuff you see on social
media right where how you're you're the people's perception of you and what you post
on social media is the most important version of you, which unfortunately is it's
it's the digital emergence of you know, clickish behavior that you already deal with
when you're young and coming up through school and you know, even obviously into
adult life. But that's what we're talking about here. The difference is now
you gotta go and you gotta yeah, you gotta post the h on the
Insta. So hip, I am got to post on the Insta this fabulous
thing you did you just did, which which would fall way outside of your
current financial situation. But it's it's the clicks that matter, and people find
themselves struggling to pay bills. The amount of credit card debt, especially among
younger folks, continues to go up and up and up and up. Is
that that person's fault or is that predatory credit card companies? But now money
just more if you have this is like when Tiger Woods is like, I
can't stop hooking up with hose right, it's not my fault. I have
a disease. You can, you just don't want to. That man walks
into a Perkins or a Denny's or whatever and takes out the hottest waitress,
which I don't depending on where you are, that's a was it Denny's or
a Perkins? I can't remember. He nabbed the one. But still,
holy crap. Man takes some responsibility. And the fact that it's a higher
threshold among younger folks who have less experience handling finances doesn't mean like you're mixing
causation here is bad with money, But it doesn't mean you'll always be bad
with money, or it does. You know, in a lot of times,
going back to our young lady there talking about her her dad, the
super bigot, a lot of the way that we handle finance is going to
be influenced by the way we watch our parents do it. I know,
right, crazy, I should get a study as well. But again,
it's not your fault. So they're terrible. Yes, we got that's a
new thing. We got a new phrase, and we have I forgot about
this. We have a canceled word. Unfortunately, we got a word that
gots to go. So you're gonna have to strike this immediately from a vocabulary
or risk having your child one day testify that you're a bigot than a school
board beating. All right, you ready for the word that's canceled, hysterical
or just hysterical. I don't know if hysteria, yeah, historical, hysterical
not historical, just change that. But hysterical is canceled, so need you
to not use that? Ross. Do you know why that word is canceled?
Uh? No idea. It's bossy, Remember bossy. It's because it
is a derogatory term that men will use to emotionally manipulate women or be derogatory
towards them in places such as the work space. No, I was told
it was fine. It's like you would you would agree that somebody being hysterical
in your mind is going to have a set of circumstances, like they're they're
not listening, maybe they're hyperventilating. Yeah, but I mean it can also
mean funny, it it can and yeah, but do you actually know what
the word means? Like this is this is like the root of the word,
the word Yeah, uh, womb woman, womb it's that's it's Latin
for women basically. Yeah, so they're like, oh, man, people
use this word to be derogatory when women are being very emotional. Sometimes I've
I've I've run into dudes that are hysterical in both senses, because there's obviously
there's the comedic sense, but no, they mean being derogatory. So yeah,
they're canceling a word that in the root language of the current language,
uh, was a well, a word that was used for woman, but
it more meant womb. And by the way, you can beef with that
because then you're like, ah, they just see him as a womb and
you know, back in the day they kind of did. But there you
go, So, uh, let's go ahead and get that canceled. But
you're right, I don't know how it works in a comedy club. All
right, speaking of comedy race agents here from the Weather Channel here all week
Oh wait, no are you? Yes? Yeah? Okay, all week?
Yeah, yes, February is a little bit on the Caribbean and vacation
with the Lions players or something. Though. Yeah, they kind of Uh
yeah, I was in and out of let's say, sleep for the second
half. But I heard some uh decisions you were made that maybe they should
have made different decisions. Uh well, when it's rigged, what can you
do? So yeah, that's when I'm assuming that Kelsey is getting married at
halftime to uh well, now you know all that drama told you about her
making it to the big game. Now she's got a show in Tokyo.
It's gotta fly back like twelve. My wife's telling me this, Oh,
come on, play along a little bit, will you. I'm I'm gonna
be forced to here. Yeah you are, Yeah, you will be.
You will be. But the teams that I thought would win did win,
So I guess I'm in a good play. The Lions had it, but
I really had I just thought San Franciscos would be too much. But anyway,
Yeah, I'm gonna have a lot to talk about. We're gonna have
come up with some topics because weatherwise, there's not gonna be much this week.
Are you not here? Yeah, well not here, dude. I
was on the weather page or the weather little weather tab earlier and they're talking
about blood rain. Okay, you got some to talk about. Bloo,
blood rain. Where was that? And in London is about to get a
bit of blood rain. But then we see, goodness, blood rain in
a while. Oh, we can't have that. No, can't have that.
By the way, blood let whoever it is go, okay, yeah,
I'll take somebody. Ye should shouldn't let him go, let him go?
All right? Yeah? It is Groundhog Day week, right, Yeah,
none of that. Maybe not much even in the way of rain tomorrow.
Oh it's two Thursday, Friday, the second, the second every year,
February second. You know, hyping it up here obviously, just you
know. Anyway, a little cloud this morning. It's gonna be sunny today
and tomorrow. Most of us near are just above fifty loads a knife gotten
colder down into the low thirties. Maybe a little rain around Wednesday, but
Thursday Friday look great, going back into the fifties, mid upper fifties,
maybe sixty degrees by the end of the week. As we get into Groundhog
Day on Friday, and it should be mostly sunny. And I took a
little peak of the weekend that also looks sunny too, So pretty tranquil week.
Just got that one chance of rain coming in here Tuesday night and Wednesday,
and that should about do it. No big arctic outbreak scene and no
big storms over the next five to seven days. All right. If we're
not having playoffs with the ground dolls this year, again, I don't want
any part of it. Because if once his Gobbler's knob iyo, it says
one thing and then the one here says something else, right, they should
have to fight I mean Mortal Kombat or glass disagree chickens. So all right,
what what build a Blasio murdered a groundhog on it? So I don't
want to hear it. All right, man, have a good one.
I appreciate it. Yep, yeah, oh man, I didn't realize Ross,
I didn't realize we're gonna we're gonna be back using Gobbler's nob for a
second week in a row. What an amazing news cycle, all right?
Seven forty eight hang on, thank you, Casey Is On ninety four five
PT. I in the triad and one six one M talk in the triangle.
Wait it's that Wait wait, hold on, hold on. I didn't
see the details of this. This dude assaulted a clerk at this the police
report it was this dude's name Mayhasu John Mayhaws. Anyway, went into a
circle K apparently got into a disagreement with one of the cashiers and decided,
as he was read when he got to the front, that he would wait
for the other cashier, and he said something to the cash here he didn't
want to go to It doesn't say whether they had beefs something. They didn't
know each other, so I don't know. But when the clerk's like,
no, I'm ready, according to police, the twenty seven year old reached
down to grab a chocolate egg and fired it directly into the forehead of the
clerk, and then jumped over the counter and punched him a couple of times.
So don't do that, are they? They have the Cadbury eggs out
at Circle K already? What come on, it's January? People, are
we already in full easter? I saw it at CBS last or two weeks
ago. I saw some stuff creeping in. But if we're up in the
circle ks now with the with the the easter stuff. Give it a rest
for five minutes. Man, unless like chocolate eggs and you're probably good.
But oh man, ah, let's he charged with. I'm gonna say it
because I don't want to want to don't email me ex salt. Okay,
it's there. I covered it. Not because it's clever, but no.
But also, you know, don't exalt or assault clerks of the circle k
Is that good? We can handle that? Wonderful? Speaking of AsSalt or
criminal behavior? What the hell's going on in New Jersey? Although if I
was to pick a state where this is going on, this would be tie
on the list. This is weird. It's a meat mystery. What is
this like on my camera? So I can't say the words that I exactly
use, But what is this? Feather Dority says she woke up Wednesday morning
to what she thinks is, of all things, pepperoni from the door to
the edge of the porch and then strategically placed down the stairs to the driveway.
Nothing on the driveway, and then four slices on the hood and four
slices on the trunk. All right, well, hold on I'm doing the
math here. Ross, that was like twelve slices of free pepperoni, right
at least twelve, four on the hood, four on the trunk, and
then how many stairs she has I don't know, but I'm going to assume
that there's a few. That's at least you got a baker's dozen a pepperoni.
Man, what's the problem We're trying to figure out? Who goes around
with two loaves of pepperoni and a knife in the middle of the night and
cuts it up into slices, throws it on people's property like you mean,
gives it to you. I have nothing better to do with your time,
an angel? Perhaps, I don't know. Tell me more about cured meats.
She called Menville Police to let them know what happened. She says she's
worried the grease from the meat sitting on her car could ruin the paint,
something that one local body shop says, sound strange, but it's possible.
But only can know them A car a pain, you know, if he's
don't see for a really long time, you know, can that much if
it is, and especially if it's a hot day. Was that dude Italian
that you were talking to I was having troiap place his accent. No he's
a Hispanic. Yeah, no, no, no, no, no,
I understand that because that's how I love the fact they actually, like,
you know, go to the to an auto shop. Yeah, they're really
investigating this. Yeah, but why did they they you did see what they
didn't do though, like they didn't talk to Mario or like they even make
an attempt. And you're in I have to assume in New Jersey, by
the way, you could also go to a uh, forget the body shop,
go to a butcher. I know there's Italian delicatessens. I mean you
do have the next cut to play? Yeah, oh that's the buddy cut.
Hay on, hay on, hay gun. Are did they? It
hurts the heart. Spending a lifetime in the business of Pepperoni, owner of
Manville Pizza, Anthony Daniello says, the meat looks larger than the kind you'd
use on pizza, certainly of the family of Pepperoni Salami exactly what one.
I can't be certain. It is funny, However, it's wrong. It's
wrong. There should not be trespassing. You should not be vandalizing people's properties
like you know, I mean, I even made a joke and called them
the Pepperoni bandits. Sodos's point and then the little hype up they went.
They couldn't look at all the footwork they put in on this, on this,
they went to a body shop. They went to a pizza place.
That's amazing you about effort there. I'm gonna take issue with the pizza guy.
I get my favorite pizza place in Minneapolis used the giant slices of pepperoni.
You know that the size of like a coaster, and I love those
instead of just the smaller ones. Is that just me? Or do you
not care? Ross? Do you like the big pepperonis? Man? Oh,
it just made for a bigger, greasy, just delicious. But by
the way, Russ, if I get mad at you, I want to
assault your house with smoked meat. You're fine with that, right? Yeah?
Yeah, it's fun. So hey, if you're the Pepperoni bandit your
mom, Yeah yeah, yeah, I just made a joke. Come on
by the house, lady. Oh Man, ain't no crazy like big dispute
Western kind cry. I shouldn't say that because it sounds like it was very
very one sided. Sorry, I'm just reading this crazy story from Hurricane West
Virginia because that was a weird name. And then I remember that we made
up a name in West Virginia one time and it turned out to be a
town. What was the name of that? What was the name? Again?
I can't remember. It was so stupid I couldn't believe it. So
Hurricane is downright normal. Apparently it's near Charleston, West Virginia. A West
Virginia woman is charged with well lots of stuff after she got into a confrontation
with her boyfriend. According to police, they got a domestic disturbance call via
the nine to one one. It was it was the boyfriend he called cops
said that she's she's out of she's out of her mind. She's hitting him
with stuff. In fact, she reportedly hit him with a flower pot,
a fish tank, and a bunch of other stuff. So and I guess
he didn't put hands on her. This kind of sat there and took it
and called nine one one. But when she wasn't getting the reaction she wanted
and she saw that he was called nine one one. Even after receiving what
police say were multiple lacerations, giants swelling bump on his head. She decided
then to go over to his terrarium or whatever wherever you keep. The reptiles
grabbed Quincy. Quincy is a gecko, or should I say was a gecko,
And when she didn't get the reaction she wanted, according to police,
she took the gecko, put it in the garbage disposal and turned it on.
So no more Quincy. When police arrived, they saw him, they
saw gecko pieces, they heard the story, and now she's charged with all
the stuff. But she claims that because one of the charges is a animal
cruelty, she didn't think because it was a lizard it counted like that.
Not She said it was not a mammal, which I guess in her mind
makes it different. So yeah, I guess I would take hold with the
gerbil flush. Was it a gerbil? That chick flush at the airport?
Maybe that? But yeah, no that counts even if it's a lizard and
a snake, even though I understand you snake people, but you do you
again, you're not hurting me. So there's that, all right. Let
me get into this. So yesterday, yesterday, pro Palestinian protest block streets
in downtown Raleigh again, this time before I get into a couple little thoughts
here from the quotes given by police too are a l This protest gathered on
East Hargan and Blunt Street. Do you know what's there? If you don't
live in Raleigh, maybe you don't. Do you know what's there? It's
kind of important. On the corner at East Hargan and Blunt Street. It's
a couple things there is. There's some la there's a nicely ocean restaurant.
It's a little hipster ish, but the soup is amazing. There is a
park, got a park they just redid it. Still still chock full of
homeless, but they got nice new benches and stuff. Let's see what's on
the upper part. It's a little parking lot there. No, no,
no, no, no. I can't remember what's on, But none of
those three corners are why I'm here. What's on the fourth corner is Marbles
Kids Museum, an Imax theater on a Sunday. And let me let me
tell you. Obviously, I've never drug kids to Marbles, but I've gone
to the movie theater a few times. And more importantly, for where you
may catch me on a Sunday is sometimes I like to go downtown and get
a bloody Mary and watch you know, early maybe some really sports coverage or
just any of it, like on a Sunday, and just make a lazy
day of it. And Anevita. I always when I go downtown to go
where I go, I park in that parking garage, which is kind of
right across from Marble, So you turn you go on Blood Street South and
then you turn into the garage and if you park there on the weekends,
it's it's damn full. And it's damn full because you got to be very
careful in that garage. They're because there are gaggles of families with very young
children. And you know how young kids are when they're going someplace. They're
excited to be going, right, They're like, oh, let me,
let me just run like the flash to get there. And you know,
they're little kids. They're not thinking about stuff. So I would say be
careful. But in my mind, I'm looking where this protest is. It
sounds angry, as many protests do, and I'm not interpreting it because I'm
an adult and I could factor a bunch of stuff in. And there's a
difference between people yelling and people yelling out of anger. But inevitably there are
some of that in a protest, and a kid's not making that distinction.
And so again, in the same way, I don't understand idiots gluing themselves
to the freeway rush hour. Who do you think you're convincing? That's what
I Who are you convincing? Because if you're somebody, even if you are
blissfully unaware of what's going on, and you want people to hear your side
of it and what you want, which, by the way, you're also
protesting for a ceasefire, which was offered and rejected, and now they're back
at the table. And again the ceasefire only required the release of hostages,
so you literally got you got what you wanted. But I kids, kids
can become overstimulated no matter who they are, what's going on. Different people
are different. But you know, as a little kid, if something is
really out of the ordinary, but it doesn't hit kids well, and if
they're young, they may look, they may just start crying, They may
become fearful. They may you know, as a little kid, they may
associate something that with something they like, with something they don't like like you
don't know what's going on. But here's the deal, regardless of whether I
agree with you, if I'm bringing my kid over here and they start bawling
because you all are screaming in front of the Marbles Kids Museum and blocking traffic
and police are there, so that's amping what kids are seeing. Nobody's listening
to that. And I feel like protests, and many, many protests on
the left, although arguably there's a very high profile one that had some similar
things to this that I arguably was on the right, is now to annoy
and I don't know who you're preaching to. So it's just the act of
going out and getting in people's faces that make you feel good. And I
feel like the thing you want is almost an afterthought. But there's a couple
of lines in this story. According to Raleigh police, police block the road
after protesters attempted to use a vehicle to lead the march. The officer said
the protesters normally inform police of their route so officers can block traffic to keep
people safe, but protesters did not inform them, and to that, I
would ask the City of Raleigh and the Mayor of Boldwood what the hell?
What is going on? I told you what happened a couple weeks ago at
that roundabout at Hillsboro. It was around eight o'clock at night. I was
coming back from I was I was down and carry at Raised Steakhouse IV,
meeting some friends down there. But and I had I had I wanted to
stop somewhere else on the way, so I cut through kind of my NC
state because I was at that shopping center off Western and I get to that
big roundabout and the car in front of me screeched to a halt. I
almost hit him. I ended up kind of putting a wheel up on that
center thing. And it was because a about ten trucks with Palestinian flags all
over it went through the roundabout at full speed, not stopping. They did
not have right of way because they were to the right of where we were
entering, and just blew through there. And I actually called a coppront amount.
I'm like, what the what the hell's going on? I say,
yeah, normally they tell us when they're doing that, they're not, And
I'm like that that's the criminal part, man. But on the blocking the
road and giving them, you know, police protection essentially, area to do
that. How is it that this group of protesters, at the drop of
a hat, either when they call or just in the moment, is immediately
given the ability to hold there. We'll call it a parade of ideas,
a march, and it's immediately acquiesced to. And yet the Christmas parade get
initially was told they can't do anything, and then they stripped away all the
things that make it easier to do a Christmas parade and provide more grandeur to
it. This is where the city of Raley's at here, and it's an
immense double standard. And I have to ask if there's any lawyers listening,
please help me, because I'm not a lawyer. Ross is not a lawyer.
We're not lawyers. The the both have a religious component. Would you
agree with Ross? Would you agree that there is a religious component to both
a Christmas parade and a pro Palestinian protest? Okay, even if it's not,
even if there's a lot of people who are secular who may involve themselves
with it, it's undeniable that it's there. And so with that in mind,
but also just you know, the equal like what happened to equal protection
under the law. How is there not a lawsuit over this? How is
somebody not suing the city of Raleigh when they decide that one group, at
the drop of a hat can get, you know, be able to take
something over and and police provide the barricades and everything necessary to do. I
mean, I understand that the safety portion of that, but how how is
that a thing that happens with zero planning and they're immediately immediately pacified and a
Christmas parade three months out initially is told no, and then this, And
yes, I am harping on this still because this seems like an issue.
Excuse me that if it was the other way around, Democrat lawyers would already
have lawsuits filed. And I use as evidence all the lawsuits all the time
over everything. It is abundantly clear. It is abundantly clear that there is
a double standard. There's equal protection in a variety of issues, but I
think this one is low hanging fruit man. And I saw somebody on there
after I posted, I'm like, well, that's weird because one group gets
this, the other group gets that, and she goes, ah, your
monsters, you just want to arrest everyone. And I didn't even use the
word to rest. That's one solution, I guess. But the other solution
is if you're going to you're going to adapt and allow this thing, then
it's it's farce cool that you wouldn't adapt and allow the Christmas parade to do
its thing. And I think if you ask most residents where they would feel
most comfortable with their family, they're gonna pick the parade and not the protest.
And that's not even necessarily reflection of the protests. Man, So am
I wrong? Lawyer folks out there? Eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four, Why is this stuff that seems so obviously not providing really
an equal take under the law, Like you know the eighty three million dollar
Trump decision. If you don't think that that was driven at least in part
by inherent bias there. But that's something lawyers are lawyering. This is just
people on the street doing this stuff. And yeah, I understand there's political
connections, but give me a break. And plus the idea that you got
to drag your kids for that screaming mob so they can go, I ros
revet to the museum part. I mean, what do they do with marbles?
I'm assume it's like hands on kids, science y stuff. We've never
been able to go in. Oh okay, yeah, we don't feel like
it would be a good thing for everyone else. Yeah, I's not over
stimulation. I know it's very popular because when I park in that parking garage,
there's there's there are more. There are more four year olds three that
can run a four to two forty I swear in that parking garage. So
it'll be very careful in there on the weekends. But yeah, like what,
I don't understand what's setting up in front of more and marbles accomplishes.
I thought you wanted to take it too, and I was. I was
referencing how I can think of a conservative thing and that's the truck thing up
in Canada, which then led to a variety of things that writers at SNL
have never heard of. And if you don't know what I'm talking about,
check this out. So SNL over the weekend, even though Joe Biden's running
around as confused as ever, they could have just done Joe Biden with his
hard hat backwards. If you don't know about this, I'm gonna get to
this. But you know, but they can't. They can't bring themselves to
do it. So what do they do? They decide to do a Trump
joke except out of twenty whatever, because there's a bunch of people in that
writer's room. I've seen, you know, a video like the process at
SNL and they go in there and it's like half the cast. And then
a bunch of other writers and a lot of people wrote for SNL that you
may not know, who went on to be very successful in a variety of
other things. Big, big, big names. Man, but not one
of them could be bothered to learn this term. Trump did have a slight
stumble this week while talking about banks, and he introduced an interesting new term
called d bank. We're also going to play strong protections to stop banks and
regulators from trying to dbank you. They want to dbank you, and we're
going to dbank. I don't know what the hell d bank means, but
he might have to take d ambulance to see the doctor. How is that?
How is it possible that we have a reporter in New Jersey over a
pepperoni left on a woman's car, who went and and he went to an
automotive shop, He went to an Italian owned pizza place, right, look
at everything he did, and the writers at SNL couldn't google D banking,
which I guess if you don't know, I mean, obviously inherently we're gonna
know what it is because we've covered a lot of stories and D banking would
be not just what you saw with the what the Canadian government did, but
also making it very very difficult for federal for banks who sell firearms. I
mean, I'm pretty sure and they know who Kanye West is too, right,
Yeah, I believe they. I believe they Kanye what? Oh yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, no they did. You're right,
the banks, we want nothing to do with you. It was a big
story and it's happened to quite a few people, but it became a it
became a political tactic with the with the guns thing, and it got a
little traction and I think they kind of backed off of That doesn't mean they're
done where they went. You know, you don't have to do business.
This is this tell This explains the detail to which politically they want to not
just beat their enemies at the at the polling place, but they want their
enemies completely in a way you could respect it from a warfare standpoint, right,
you just turn everything to miss But that's what they want to do.
So all right, well, now you can't bank, or you can't you
know, you won't be part of investment portfolios because we have these DEI requirements
or any of this. And you say, imagine right now if they froze
all your stuff. Think about that time you got a security freeze and all
you had to do was call. But in those five minutes you're like,
oh my gosh, I'm gonna starve. That's what they're doing. And with
Trump, they want banks to pledge not to do business with them, even
though ironically the very quote victim in that whole thing with the financial is a
bank who said, no, we deal with rich billionaires all the time,
so we take whatever they tell us. And then because of the size of
the loan, we got a whole team of people that make sure, you
know, we're comfortable. And by the way, he paid it all back.
That's d banking. What freezing accounts of people as part of the Trucker
protest D banking people going in and pressuring the various fundraising websites. It is
a form of it, and that nobody at SNL could be bothered to Google.
That is absolutely beyond me. But I shouldn't that guy, that pizza
guy or that's Pepperoni banded reporter did more actual reporter work than any of these
mainstream dudes doing Trump takedown pieces because think about it, there's stuff is phone
calls with their liberal buddies. They're not going places to look it up.
So yeah, D banking is a thing. SNL apparently doesn't know what it
is. Ah, But like I said, we got more and we'll get
to it coming up. Hang on, Eric smart talk all day ninety four
or five w PTI and the Triad and six one FM talk in the Triangle.
So piggybacking, welcome back, by the way, piggybacking on what went
down with the inability of anyone at SNL to understand d banking or they just
didn't care right and go oh what is this now? MSNBC has acknowledged that
they understand the term, but they say that it's a right wing fever dream
except in cases where hold on, I want to read the quote here correctly.
The issue in question, the financing of quote conservative extremism, has been
a source of angst for far right republicansah blah blahrights. You get the gist
there, they're just you know, once again, it's not happening. It's
that, it's that meme. You see, it's not happening. It is
happening, but it's great or so I can't remember all the steps in it.
Yeah, but like, how does that now? If you had an
honest broker on MSNBC on that panel, they might go all right, uh,
you know there's the part where a bank may not want to do business
with the clan or say, you know, who the hell knows what it
is? Right? And if you want to have that discussion in that realm,
I guess you can. But the it was an organized assault on banks
and to cow them from from doing any business with anyone in the gun industry,
which is perfectly legal. And and keep in mind, these are the
same folks who were really upset although now there's capitalism has emerged when many major
banks would not do business with dispensaries because it remains illegal under federal law.
Right, and they said, this isn't this isn't right. And what you
had is you had some like banks, quasi banks that build in and then
there are some banks that do do business. But that's not literally enshrined in
the constitution, So I mean, give me a break with all that.
But coupled with all that insanity. Oh and somebody pointed out that they very
well know what deep platforming is so they could figure it out. That's a
fair point. Let's head over to snopes, shall we also purported to be
a fair arbiter. A photo emerged of Joe Biden hanging with some union I
don't know what industry was, but some union workers, right, And so
they're on their high viz outfits. It's insuperior Wisconsin. And for whatever reason,
he decides to put a hard hat on, which is fine, but
I'm a firm believer if you're a politician you should not put a helmet or
hat on of like a helmet, a hard hat of any sort, cause
do caucus. So so he puts it on, and for those of you
who have worn a hard hat, you know how it works. The shell
is the shell, that's its own. Actually, no, you dubbed in
oil field Randos. He does a great job explaining this. Oilfield Rando,
who's a Twitter account, would be a good follow, but he'll explain it
better than me. But if you've worn a hard hat once, you understand,
because there's a little spinny thing on the back to tighten and loosen it,
what the front is and what the back is, and keep in mind
that it's also you're also able to reverse that. And you don't just turn
the hard hat around. The little thing that grabs your head. The part
that grabs your head is actually you can remove it and lock it back.
Well, he'll he'll explain it. But here's your hard hat to Tori.
Right, I've got some free times, so I'm gonna explain this because it's
apparently a debate. This is a hardhat. Okay, hard hat. The
back of my harthead in front of my hard hat, a hearthead is actually
two different components. This suspension here with this little wheel, and that makes
it tider a buser depending on how big your head is and the ship.
Wow, this suspension comes right out all right, right after all right,
And as you get the gist of it, and he's demonstrating this, and
he points out that sometimes you would reverse it if you're welding in a hard
hat, which maybe I don't know. I've welded in a hard hat and
I can't remember. But the point is if because of the way that that
thing fits with the little spinning wheel, there's more meat to that side of
the interior, why because if not, it would block your whole forehead out
you'd look stupid. Well what way do you think Joe Biden was wearing it?
Yes, and the things across his forehead. This is why. Again,
just don't put a hard hat or a helmet on, man, And
don't get in the tank. Why are you getting in the tank? Don't
get in the tank. And it wasn't just that, it wasn't just Joe
Biden putting it on wrong whatever, How many politicians have tried to do the
every man in a backfired? Remember cal cunning how excuse me, Jody Cunningham.
Cal Cunningham, remember that picture of him going I'm barbecuing, No,
you ain't. And by the way, that barbecue looks new. So and
and he was like, just don't do it because you look disingenuous. And
so Joe Biden putting it back on. He had the perfect excuse. You
could just be like he didn't know what the hell he's doing. Have you
seen him? But no, they had to take up mantles. So Snopes
decided that they would fact check whether in fact that he is how you wear
a hard hat when it's clearly even if people have never worn a hard hat,
it's clearly not so like if you put it on, even if you've
never seen a hard hat or the interior of it, if you put it
on and you had this thing hanging over the down your forehead, and it
would be remarkably uncomfortable too, because the way the weights ditry, like even
inherently, you'd be like, I don't think I'm doing this right. But
no, he rolled up there, and then Snopes and a couple others jumped
on and they said, no, this is a lie. He's not.
And then every guy and on the planet, and a whole bunch of women
too, who every day wear hard hats to go out and do their jobs,
which he's quickly trying to eliminate so you can go learn to code,
knows what's up. It was. It was explaining this and it's something I've
never seen before. Snopes took it from false to true. They didn't even
go in the mushy middle. They didn't do that thing that they tend to
do or they're like, uh, partially true, partially you know, and
then it's some weird explanation where they're willing to dig down for something to negate
the blame, whereas on the other side they will dig for anything and make
stuff up to make it false if they don't like the person. It never
becomes clearer there. But no, they want one hundred and eighty degrees on
this because everyone has ever worn a hard hats like, you're doing it wrong,
man, you're doing it wrong. And and I don't know if it's
still like this, but you know I did directional boring and roofing to make
ends meet, you know, college years and all that. That was my
summer gigs hard Hat City obviously, when you're down down in a hole and
you're you know, you're trying to punch piping through under an interstate like hard
Hat City. But the learning curve, man, you're a new guy there,
even though I was able to weld, which is why I was hired.
Like, dudes will make fun of you. The learned curves quick right
with a work crew, and if you're walking around with a with a hard
hat backwards, dudes are gonna screw with you. And there's I'm not gonna
get into it. There's a lot of ways you can mess with people on
a job site. All of it OSHO approved, I'm sure, but like
they weren't buying this BS and then they had to flip the whole thing.
So Snopes like at no point pulled up a picture of a hard hat for
some reason, and SNL didn't google d banking. And I'm telling you,
when you never get called out for it except just you know, a blowhards
like be on the radio, you get comfortable and let's like, like Gavin
Newsom said something to CBS News over the weekend. He said, this is
the best three years first three years of a presidency in modern history, referring
to Joe Biden, whose approval ratings just beat for low numbers Jimmy Carter's third
year. And when I say beat, I mean lower then so it's not
a win for him. But why that's why news some things he can say,
and that's why news out let's think they can treat you like you're an
idiot. We didn't know where how to wear a hard hat. What's funny
too, is Clobashard's there and she's a Minnesota Senator, And this isn't Wisconsin,
but it's right across the border. And none of the workers are wearing
their hard hat inside because they don't want to wear their hard hat. They're
not working, and I don't blame them. All right, raced agent from
the Weather Channel, he's in full protective year. He looks like one of
those guys he shows up after a typhoid outbreak. So right, yeah,
before they fully down, yeah directed, yep, Yeah, dopplers put out
a lot of radiation. Yeah, what's going on? Man? Pretty good
week for getting into the latter part of January and now the last month of
meteorological winter February. Not bad, not bad. Temptures are come down a
little bit from where we wore last week. I mean last week we spent
some days in the seventies. Now probably going to struggle a guyt the fifties
all week. But I should be a terrible week in terms of pre sip
sunshine. Seen a little cloud on satellite picture this morning. That's it.
Probably get to the little bit fifties a near freezing are just above tonight,
and then tomorrow will spend another day, likely in the mid fifties. So
I have some rain maybe sometime Tomorrow night to Wednesday. That storm doesn't look
like a bunch, more like a front coming in which may briefly drop temperatures,
but only a little bit. As we get toward Thursday, we should
see Wednesday temperatures get to the upper forties and then back into the mid fifties.
Thursday morning it'll be colder. So that's it for a precip and then
Friday looks good toour back in your sixty degree So lots of sunshine around the
next couple of days, maybe some rain Wednesday, and then getting milder again
as we get into a Thursday, first day February and groundhout day or Friday,
lots of sunshine and most of us will be around sixteen three. So
yeah, you know our we do, we do. They hit with you,
and then when I come back from the break, we chat with the
Bloomberg folks, right yep. And so we got Jeff Bellinger, who Jeff
Bellinger's seen more Indiana Jones movies than you. Oh you know, I clicked,
I clicked, got it and I was going to start it this weekend.
Yeah, well it's probably well, you know, Roboll's coming up it's
a great weekends. Youin't gonna watch that crap from Orlando, So maybe you
could do a little marathon. Man. You know what I'm gonna for you.
I will ross and I are going to quit. What's the first one?
What's the what do you don't? What do you you get? No?
Go away, You're gonna do the research. I'm like SNL and everybody
else. So all right, all right, do better and we'll we'll talk
tomorrow. I have we going there? All right? Race agic from the
Weather channel? Uh eight forty oh? Somebody always what's blood Rain? Why
are you guys talking about a video game? No? Blood Rain? Wait,
that would be horrible if that happened to London. Do you ever play
that video game Blood Rain? Ross? I remember that game from back in
the day. Oh yeah, like if yeah, if that went down,
Uh in London, you guys have bigger problems. It's Saharan sand that's in
the atmosphere and it has a rain, so they got big rain coming and
it'll just everything turns like not quite red, but it's pretty gross. So
that's blood Rain. It's not the video game because if everything would be read
there for different reasons, all right, eight forty seven and Hang one talks
an five WPTI two stations driving the best in talk. This is Cacoday and
Carolinas Morning News. All Right, good morning, happy Monday. If you're
such a thing as a fifty three or Bloomberg Update now with Jeff Blander.
Jeff, what's happening? Hello, Good morning, Casey. Stock Market futures

benefited as rates eased from their peak. Redfin reports a home buyer with a
budget of three thousand dollars a month has gained about forty thousand dollars in purchasing

buy a four hundred and sixteen thousand dollars house. Now that same budget is
enough to afford a four hundred and fifty three house. Late word came that
Amazon and I Robot have agreed to terminate their merger deal. That combination was
opposed by antitrust regulators in Europe. People know it's important to build a financial
cushion, but they're confronting the reality it can be very hard to save money.
Bank Rate reports more than half of American workers find it difficult or impossible
to bank enough money so they feel comfortable about emergencies, retirement, or other

factory upgrades this year. Manufacturers spent heavily in twenty twenty three, and Casey,
it was a slow weekend at the nation's movie theater. The Beekeeper from
Amazon MGM was the weekend's top money maker, with ticket sales coming in just
under seven and a half million dollars. Casey, all right, thank you,
Jeff, We'll chat tomorrow, sir, Going Hey, sounds good.
You have a good day. All right, there you go. Jeff Bellinger,
Bloomberg News, ROSSO was going to drag you into this movie discussion we're
about to have, but then I thought, now I won't do that.
So Dune two is it out? Or is it coming out? I honestly
I don't even pay attention now when stuff comes into theaters. But I watched
the new Dune that came out a few years ago. Okay, all right,
you gotta really be paying attention. You can't passibly watch it. But
I thought it was well done. Well, they're real excited about done too,
And they're so excited. They did something that occasionally you'll see movies do
where they partner to really stand out in the theater. And they touched all
bases from a bunch of kind of quirk show stuff. They're going to be
doing a few. They got like a whole list of stuff, but there's
only one I want to talk about. A customized Dune popcorn bucket. All
right, So you go to the theater, you get the popcorn bucket,
bounds of it, and then you go and you squirt I think a year's
worth of calories and cholesterol all over it and holy cow, delicious, right.
So the difference with this is it's your standard popcorn bucket, although it
does have doune on it, but it's got this lid, and the lid
is this is in the shape I'm assuming that's supposed to be the worm,
one of those big sand worms. And the lid is like two thirds the
height of the bucket itself, and it has a worm extending and at the
top it has the worm's mouth which you reach your hand into, and it's
got like barbed not barbed, like little plastic stopper things. I don't know
how to describe it. You have to see it, will tweet it out
and I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I I my childish, immature brain kicked
in in about one millisecond looking at this thing because I'm it also looks like
it's something that a guy can go to a counter and buy in a trench
coat along with a beer and be handed slathered in the greasiest, most lubricating
butter known demand, and be immediately handed to go into a dark theater.
And I can't be the only one who immediately went oh no, oh no.
And I don't know why it is remember the stupid like fake singing mouth
throat thing that scientists made and nothing in every post under it's just wood memes.
That's the vibe I'm getting off that popcorn thing? Ross, Am I
wrong? It looks a little you know, I don't know what you're talking
about. Do not, do not. We just you're the one who brought
the mouth thing to my attention. I'm pretty sure you're confusing me as somebody
else in the staff. Really, okay, it's been a busy day.
I'm not it's a popcorn bucket. What do you think does it? What
is it? What is it supposed to look like? Looks like a place
where you put your man part huh in a Florida theater and end up and
then it's gonna hap Well, I mean, it's none of my business,
is it. I'm not a perv. Not gonna be looking at that.
As long as you're not next to me. If you rose down, whatever
you do is your business. I feel like behind correctly behind me, it
would be more disconcerting because once you knew what was going on, you could
only hear it happening because you didn't dare turn around, and then you're at
some point you maybe is that, butter what is that? No, no,
no, no no no. That thing's wrong, man, that thing
is wrong, and I will I'm gonna say it. Look it up for yourself.
