WEBVTT

1
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:25.320
Alrighty, good morning. That was
nice. The very first second there,

2
00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:30.640
Dog's gross apologies, uh caz O
day radio program at a six a week

3
00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:37.960
and royal boy, what do we
got? Oh, we got we got

4
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:42.200
a few, We got some dudies, man, obviously the big story.

5
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:46.079
And of course it happened like after
I did the promo and got all the

6
00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:52.840
stuff ready for essay and we left, and finally we have the resignation there

7
00:00:52.960 --> 00:01:03.679
of the Harvard president kind of kind
of I mean from a title standpoint,

8
00:01:03.400 --> 00:01:08.719
excuse me, yes, but I
was just reading this morning that even though

9
00:01:08.760 --> 00:01:12.840
she's out as pres she still gets, you know, still a professor,

10
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:19.680
and they're gonna maintain the presidential salary, which is nine hundred thousand a year.

11
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:25.959
I don't know what a standard professor
makes, but obviously that is quite

12
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:32.599
a bit of excess. And the
reason, as you probably know, even

13
00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:42.159
if you're only lightly following the story, conservatives weaponizing plagiarism. Yes, yeah,

14
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:47.680
no, I ye, you probably
thought, well, maybe it was

15
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:56.120
that there seem to be these compounding
allegations of plagiarism coupled with the testimony in

16
00:01:56.319 --> 00:02:02.799
Congress which didn't go so well.
But you would be wrong. How do

17
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:07.520
I know. I've got media both
locally and nationally here to tell me.

18
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:15.840
Boy, where do we even start
with this? Let's start national, shall

19
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:21.840
we? All? Right? So
over at CNN, because of course,

20
00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:29.520
over at CNN, they decided they
were gonna have a little round table on

21
00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:38.360
the story after many many of their
reporters have been tweeting some interesting stuff following

22
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:44.479
the story. What's this guy's name? Matt Egan? So he gets drug

23
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:49.240
in to be the I guess,
the plagiarism analyst, the reporter there,

24
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:57.240
and I just he's got an interesting
take on what exactly that means. Here

25
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:04.080
we go these plagiarism allegations where Claudding
Gay has had to issue corrections, multiple

26
00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:08.159
corrections. Now we should note that
Clutting Gay has not been accused of stealing

27
00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:14.759
anyone's ideas in any of her writings. She's been accused of sort of more

28
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:20.479
like copying other people's writings without attribution. So it's been more sloppy attribution than

29
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:27.759
stealing anyone's ideas. Right, right, So not the thing but the thing?

30
00:03:29.639 --> 00:03:32.439
Right? I mean? Is he
making a distinction there? I mean,

31
00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:42.400
like because even his softer definition sounds
like exactly what plagiarism is I read

32
00:03:42.719 --> 00:03:46.680
If I read the transcripts, they're
presented as her summation of things, right,

33
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:53.879
And if it's her summation of information, which some of these passages are

34
00:03:53.960 --> 00:04:02.919
about, that's an idea, right. I'm really confused. I frankly,

35
00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:10.080
I am so disappointed. I'm not
in school now, like I might fall

36
00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:16.560
into that temptation. Man, it's
never it's never been easier to not do

37
00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:20.120
the work. And I'm not gonna
lie. I always tested well, I

38
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:26.560
got with I always knew the stuff, but I was crap on homework.

39
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:30.959
Man, hated homework, and so
there was going to be any deans or

40
00:04:30.959 --> 00:04:34.879
anything where I was getting lazy and
not doing it. It was homework,

41
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:39.720
not because I didn't know it,
just because I hated the busy work.

42
00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:51.519
I don't know that I would have
been able to resist stuff like this or

43
00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:58.000
not stuff like this stuff apparently,
which is different from what CNN interpreted that

44
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:04.399
she did. These plagiarism al Gay
has had to issue corrections, multiple corrections.

45
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:09.879
Now, we should note that cludding
Gay has not been accused of stealing

46
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:15.480
anyone's ideas in any of her writings. She's been accused of sort of more

47
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:20.240
like copying other people's writings without attribution. So it's been more sloppy attribution than

48
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:28.600
stealing anyone's ideas. All right,
Am I missing a distinction here? I

49
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:31.560
just want am? I like,
maybe I'm not understanding what he's saying.

50
00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:38.839
The difference is because she presented in
a couple that I literally the ones I

51
00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:46.680
just most recently read. She is
making a summation of somebody else's work.

52
00:05:46.839 --> 00:05:51.680
Yes, so there is a certain
complexity to this. So she's basically analyzing

53
00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:58.600
a study, right, that some
other person did. However, the analysis

54
00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:05.160
of the study is cut and pace
words of someone else's analysis. So let's

55
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:10.199
say that Ross did a study of
Ross. What are you doing a study

56
00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:14.040
of you? What do you need
government dollars for? What are you researching

57
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:20.160
fast casual Italian restaurants? Would that
work? That'd be great? Yeah?

58
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:25.480
Okay, all right. Ross is
doing a fast casual Italian restaurant research paper,

59
00:06:25.959 --> 00:06:28.959
and I want to talk about it, but I want to talk about

60
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:33.680
analysis of his methodology. So like, let's say he did it, but

61
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:39.040
he only went to Olive Garden,
Right, that would not some would say

62
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:46.560
that would not be a thorough analysis
of the nation's fast casual Italian restaurants if

63
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:51.439
you don't go to like Macaroni Grill
and you know whatever whatever other ones.

64
00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:56.920
All right, so let's say that
the analysis is being critical of him only

65
00:06:56.959 --> 00:07:01.600
going to Olive Garden. But let's
say that's funny. I didn't even write

66
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:06.560
the analysis. Let's say Kyle wrote
it in news, and then I printed

67
00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:12.600
what Kyle wrote, but didn't say
Kyle wrote it. How is that not

68
00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:17.399
stealing an idea even if I agree
with it or at the very least how

69
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:24.399
it's worded. That's what we're talking
about here, and that's what CNN went

70
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:29.079
with, and then Boyle pointed it
just go. This is went crazy town

71
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:34.959
from there, man, you had
you had what's your bucket? Who almost

72
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:43.959
got hied? I to bay Wells, e Ebram, Kendy, everyone just

73
00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:48.120
jumping out there and wril This morning, I wake up and this is their

74
00:07:48.160 --> 00:08:01.639
headline. Harvard president's resignation highlights new
conservative weapon against colleges plagiarism. Ah yeah,

75
00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:07.600
you know, in the world of
conservative seas pounds, that's a doozy.

76
00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:13.199
But that's especially I mean, she's
profited off of the stolen ideas,

77
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:16.120
right, because she's you know,
president of Harvard, and you have to

78
00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:18.480
you have to publish papers, and
they apparently they look at that when they,

79
00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:22.879
you know, should they hire you? So and you've already said her

80
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.360
salary was ridiculous, so she wrote
these papers. She stole the ideas.

81
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:31.559
Plagiarism is theft, right, and
now you're making all this ridiculous amount of

82
00:08:31.559 --> 00:08:35.919
money on it, I mean,
and still making it like your salary is

83
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:39.759
going to stay the same. Yeah, yeah, I just but it's not

84
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:43.000
plagiarism. Play. You know what
it reminds remember what Pee Goldberg when she

85
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:48.080
was what was she talking about where
she said it wasn't rape rate She was

86
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:52.200
talking about the director, right,
I think that's something like no, or

87
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.159
was it Cobe? No, it
was Kobe Bryant, that's what it was.

88
00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:01.600
Or on the view she said whoopy. Goldberg said, yeah, but

89
00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:07.039
it wasn't rape rape. I think
I probably have that audio somewhere and it's

90
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.799
like, eh, this is way
earlier than me too, and I that's

91
00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:18.120
what they're doing here. They're like, well, it wasn't plagiarism. Plagiarism,

92
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:22.399
Well there it is the new conservative
weapon and doozy of a headline and

93
00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:26.639
the analysis from CNN. I mean
the chef's kiss, the whoop the audio

94
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:31.360
is up there. Oh okay,
yeah, I mean because yeah, here

95
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:33.120
we go, this is this is
Whoopy's analysis. No, it was,

96
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.960
Yeah, there was a child in
the lest maybe I don't know it was

97
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:43.200
sometimes it was sometimes, but I
don't believe it was rape. Rape.

98
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:48.039
Yeah. Maybe that wasn't Kobe,
Maybe that was the director. The point

99
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:54.480
is she's making that equivocation, right, that wasn't rape rape And uh that

100
00:09:54.759 --> 00:09:58.440
was That was quite a while ago. And I you know, if you

101
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:00.639
just said that during me too,
I don't know that would have went.

102
00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:07.320
But it turned my head when I
saw those thing. I just think,

103
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:09.480
like, that's what makes it so
crazy. It's like, this is academia,

104
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:13.679
right, and one of the apparently
one of the most prestige universities in

105
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:16.919
the country, and there were to
be there because of your ideas and your

106
00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:24.240
accomplishments, right, and all of
her ideas are somebody else's ideas. Well.

107
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:26.840
Let's face you saw the David Hog
thing last weekend before he came back,

108
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:30.720
right, No, I missed it. Oh. His SAT score was

109
00:10:30.759 --> 00:10:37.759
like twelve forty. The average at
minimum is fifteen thirty. I was about

110
00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:39.919
to say it should definitely be over
fifteen, right, Yeah, no he

111
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:46.559
was. He was twelve something.
Yeah, twelve forty fifteen thirty is the

112
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:54.120
minimum generally, and he had.
All he could do was just post tweets

113
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:58.799
of telling people to touch grass.
Right, So so no, I mean

114
00:10:58.879 --> 00:11:05.200
the veneers off, but holy crap, how you're going. This is the

115
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:09.320
hill you want to die on today, and conservatives are the one weaponizing it.

116
00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:13.480
You ever upload a video to YouTube
and you put like two seconds of

117
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:18.080
somebody else's clip or audio in your
video to make a point of maybe you're

118
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:20.240
commenting, this is why I don't
put parody. This is why I don't

119
00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:24.080
put party songs up. They're perfectly
legal. And when I've challenged them,

120
00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:28.000
because immediately I'll get a strike,
right, and then I'll challenge it.

121
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:31.240
And in almost every case they said
fine, but it's such a pain in

122
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:35.200
the ass. I don't put parodies, right, and the YouTube will be

123
00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:37.879
like, hey, that that two
seconds isn't yours. So you know,

124
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:41.720
we can't monetize this video anymore.
You can't profit off that because it's not

125
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:45.320
your idea. Yeah, she's making
nine hundred thousand dollars on ideas that were

126
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:48.279
never hers. Wait what did did
you get a video nicked or something?

127
00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:52.320
No, it's very common. I
mean, it's it happens. Yeah.

128
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:54.120
I mean that's why I don't love
to upload to YouTube anymore from Twitch,

129
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:58.240
because like I use a lot of
sounders and you know, stuff like that.

130
00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:01.879
Can't do it? Can't do it? Yeah, well you can.

131
00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:07.240
You just got to go up to
Massachusetts itself a sweet gig. They're in

132
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:11.559
the you know, the halls of
havad and and profit. Of course you

133
00:12:11.639 --> 00:12:15.360
have to live in Boston or at
least around there, so you know,

134
00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:20.039
do with that what you will.
Six nineteen more to come, including speaking

135

background on this. Check. We got

137
00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:35.240
some great audio coming up for you. And Ross, did you see the

138
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:39.840
other tweet I sent out this morning
about what's going on down in Charlotte?

139
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:46.679
Am I a bad look? That's
a good thing, right, It's a

140
00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:54.279
good thing that they're doing with the
signs. It's a good thing. But

141
00:12:54.720 --> 00:13:01.240
you know, right now, certain
people who are childish or a little dark,

142
00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:05.879
they're gonna see that, and uh, well, I'll explain coming up

just got a short segment, so we'll

146
00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:30.840
get into audio here right after the
bottom of the hour. Uh, I

147
00:13:30.879 --> 00:13:33.639
can't if I meant Ross that I
met. No, I didn't mention this

148
00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:35.759
on you. I was telling Ross
this off the area yesterday. I was

149
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:41.679
talking talking with somebody who's a little
more into the MMA stuff than me,

150
00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:46.480
a little more die hard, and
I'm so I'm not super familiar with all

151
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:52.600
the different organizations other than obviously you
know Dana White UFC here, but you

152
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:56.799
know one of the other ones is
called what is it, the One Championship

153
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:01.399
and this is where you do like
the movie Time the kickboxing MMA. They

154
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:07.279
run all different styles of stuff,
and I guess they're the biggest just because

155
00:14:07.799 --> 00:14:13.840
they cover like Asia and a bunch
of other places. Again, not super

156
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:18.159
up on it, but here's why
I'm saying something. Ross. I guess

157
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:24.240
they want to do like a one
big tournament for the world of the best

158
00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:28.120
fighters across the spectrum. Dude,
that they're trying to do a kumitaate dude,

159
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:33.360
I'm all for it, yes,
yeah, and no real not the

160
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:37.480
not the one that doesn't mathematically work
that you've had explained to you, like

161
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:43.639
the real deal, but like,
like, how corporate do you make this

162
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:48.720
versus what it's supposed to be,
right with the secret invitations, the shady

163
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:56.320
stuff, the like how many how
many rounds was that? Like they did

164
00:14:56.480 --> 00:15:00.320
they did the audio, did the
math and Frank Dukes and they found it

165
00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:03.240
be around robin of fifteen hundred different
matches. Yeah, so we're gonna have

166
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:07.960
to we have to trim that down. But you're down for this, right

167
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:16.639
right, yes, Now the question
is how straight stereotype do you go with

168
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:20.600
all of the fighters? Right?
Oh? You got to you gotta stay

169
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:24.000
true to the to the original.
I mean you have to. It's gotta

170
00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:28.080
be eighties level, like you know
exactly where that dude's from, right,

171
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:31.039
Like, if we don't have like
a diabolical you know, the Asian dude

172
00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:35.039
blowing like sand in somebody's face at
the end of it, like I'm gonna

173
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:37.840
be disappointed. Wait, wait,
can that guy flex his peck? Oh

174
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:41.000
dude, Kenny, Oh my goodness, that's gonna be great. And then,

175
00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:43.879
for whatever reason, sometimes it's out
of South America and sometimes Africa,

176
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:48.799
you gotta have the really little dude
that hops around like in the crouch position

177
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:52.519
for whatever reason. I'm not familiar
with how that works, but there's always

178
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:58.000
that dude. You gotta have,
like a weird French guy. You know,

179
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:00.039
he's not gonna get anywhere. And
then do we go big dumb biker

180
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:03.679
dude from you have to go big
slabby American biker dude. You have to

181
00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:10.440
love it. And then Russia is
just exactly like from Rocky. I mean,

182
00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:17.159
how else do you do Russia without
Ivan drawgo So but yeah, man,

183
00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:18.519
I hope they get that thing Roland. I wouldn't even know how it

184
00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:25.440
would work, but I definitely tune
it. That would be amazing. All

185
00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:29.279
right, A little filler there.

193
00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:18.920
Starting Friday is fat Con and uh, let's see. In fact, let's

194
00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:23.279
go to one of the folks promoting
it on the twitters. She'll describe it

195
00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:27.240
for you. I'm going to hold
on. Here we go. I'm going

196
00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:30.759

00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:38.759
We will be celebrating fat libration,
body acceptance, and the power of being

199
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:41.759
in fact community. Well, okay, all right, look, I got

200
00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:45.480
no beef if people want to gather
for for whatever. But you know you're

201
00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:51.440
putting it out there, I'm at
least going to analyze how I feel this

202
00:17:51.519 --> 00:17:53.480
is going to go. So all
right, we're gonna do that. So

203
00:17:53.880 --> 00:18:02.480
like you mean the demanding the planes
change everything, that that kind of because

204
00:18:02.519 --> 00:18:06.240
I feel like that's the vibe I'm
getting here, demanding that what was it

205
00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:10.599
hotel hallways were wider, which I
don't know, they're usually pretty wide.

206
00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:14.920
But anyway, I'm sorry, tell
me more. Man over sixty hours of

207
00:18:14.960 --> 00:18:19.200
programming spanning from policy, legislation,
healthcare, community and visual arts, plus

208
00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:22.039
a ton more, this is sure
to be I'm sorry, what what?

209
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:33.440
I'm sorry? What more? And
also what's fat visual arts? I'm not

210
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:37.839
a skinny dude. Tell me,
but because I am unfamiliar with this particular

211
00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:49.640
creative outlet, is that like,
is that like making mashed potato sculpture?

212
00:18:49.680 --> 00:18:53.279
I don't know what that is,
but I do know that on top of

213
00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:57.000
it, they have a ton more? All right, continue, please,

214
00:18:57.319 --> 00:19:02.079
you don't want to miss the Vie
wants to be immaculate with a fat brunch,

215
00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:04.319

00:19:04.319 --> 00:19:11.440

220
00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:27.720
fat because I'm just I need security. There is so much to do.

221
00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:32.000
Plus there's some really cool experiences you
can sign up for, like some fat

222
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:36.720
liberation photo shoots, and some incredible
shopping experiences with two big lawns. Being

223
00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:40.039

who just accept you for who you are

224
00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:42.720
and get it is such a great
experience and I want every single person watching

225
00:19:42.759 --> 00:19:45.799
this to be able to have that
experience with us. Ticket sales for the

226
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:48.880
Fat Con are going to be ending
very soon, Okay, all right?

227
00:19:48.920 --> 00:19:53.640
And then again it kicks off on
the on Friday. Look, you want

228
00:19:53.720 --> 00:19:56.599
you want people, you want you
want to go to a place where a

229
00:19:56.640 --> 00:20:00.599
couple of fat people can just,
you know, be fine with each other

230
00:20:00.640 --> 00:20:03.200
and get along. Just go to
a bar, man, go to a

231
00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:06.440
rule, go to a go to
a country bar. For lack of a

232
00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:10.880
better words, everybody's fine. Occasionally
some fights, but you know, for

233
00:20:10.920 --> 00:20:14.480
the most part, you want to
go shoot pool with nobody cares. But

234
00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:17.279
no, if you want to go
to Seattle and spend three days doing it

235
00:20:17.319 --> 00:20:26.759
with art exhibitions, amazing buffets and
everything else, that's going that is yeah.

236
00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:30.160
And there's three days, so it
runs Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

237
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:36.200
Yeah, Well, who are the
speakers? I was gonna look that up

238
00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:37.480
this morning. Ross. You want
to go lie, you want to go

239
00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:40.759
live broadcasts from there? Now,
I say, I wouldn't have an issue.

240
00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:42.519
The food be amazing, planting.
I'm in the best shape of my

241
00:20:42.559 --> 00:20:45.680
life. Like I've go to Jim
Multime, I go in there, I'd

242
00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:51.240
feel even better about myself. Yeah, it's like you've got like the the

243
00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:55.119
super attractive hot women that always when
they take photos or post them online,

244
00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:57.559
they're always next to like their chubby
friend, right, because it makes them

245
00:20:57.599 --> 00:21:03.400
feel better about themselves. No,
look at you, now, look at

246
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:07.000
you trying to read into the motives
there, which you're probably right, but

247
00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:11.000
yeah, yeah, you go out
there. But but the difference is is

248
00:21:11.039 --> 00:21:15.480
I don't feel like, like,
did you did you hear anything in there

249
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:21.079
about not being fat? Which is
look if you want if you know,

250
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:23.480
I was aware that's that's not my
thing. But you know what I'm saying.

251
00:21:23.720 --> 00:21:27.240
I know I was wondering if there
was like a like can anyone go?

252
00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:32.720
Is a doctor going to be there? Hey? Like truth like profiling

253
00:21:32.759 --> 00:21:34.880
you as you walk in. I
don't know the answer to that. You

254
00:21:34.920 --> 00:21:37.119
know what it takes a buddy,
you got to leave, Like wait,

255
00:21:37.240 --> 00:21:41.960
so if you're not fat enough?
Yeah, but I'm sorry, sir,

256
00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:47.759
your b M I is not going
to get you in here, go to

257
00:21:47.519 --> 00:21:51.559
go over to uh, what's I'm
trying to remember the buffet restaurant. I

258
00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:53.079
was saying, Yeah, but I
go to go to Old Country or whatever

259
00:21:53.119 --> 00:22:00.000
and come back. Man, Oh
yeah, I wonder how much it costs

260
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:03.519
too. I doesn't even say we'll
see if we can get a media media

261
00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:10.000
passed there. So that's going on, and again I feel like it's gonna

262
00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:14.039
be a lot more of the hey, no, everything's fine, instead of

263
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:18.400
because it's focused on it. It's
not just neutral, you know what I'm

264
00:22:18.440 --> 00:22:22.759
saying. It's not the term that
confused me and her promo. There was

265
00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:26.960
the fat liberationists. Yes, like, wouldn't that be like losing the weight?

266
00:22:27.240 --> 00:22:33.440
No, I think it's about getting
two airline tickets for one so for

267
00:22:33.559 --> 00:22:37.440
the price of one. I guess
I don't know when when you've seen fat

268
00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:41.680
activists, what have they been asking
people to do? Basically, let them

269
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:48.119
watch the movie well, well,
yes that is one from an elevated but

270
00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:52.559
let me use my chair and watch
the damn movie Big. But it's mostly

271
00:22:52.640 --> 00:22:57.960
been hey, we need basically all
the civil rights protections and oh, by

272
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:03.319
the way, this is this is
fine, right, And then Nike's like,

273
00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:06.359
yeah, that's right, Let's run
a bunch of let's do a commercial

274
00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:10.880
shoot like this, Let's change Victoria's
secret, let's do all of this.

275
00:23:11.519 --> 00:23:15.640
Look, I know, I already
know what my doctor's going to say.

276
00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:19.480
Do you know what I'm saying?
Right? And I think you know people

277
00:23:19.519 --> 00:23:23.319
out there and it you know,
and it's on all levels, but it

278
00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:29.480
doesn't mean they're wrong. So then
you go and you do the things.

279
00:23:29.519 --> 00:23:32.720
You'll walk some more, you make
sure that your blood pressure is good,

280
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:36.440
and you and you know, and
then whatever level or journey that's on there,

281
00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:40.359
that's fine. But it's like I
have a feeling that if you were

282
00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:42.480
if you were in this group,
right, and you let's say you went

283
00:23:42.519 --> 00:23:45.960
to the next two fact cons and
you showed up at the third one and

284
00:23:47.119 --> 00:23:49.680
you're down like close to your goal
weight, they'd probably think you were a

285
00:23:49.759 --> 00:23:55.319
trader. Remember who was the singer
who lost the weight? They were lighting

286
00:23:55.400 --> 00:23:59.200
up the what's the British singer?
What is her to Adele? Right?

287
00:24:00.440 --> 00:24:03.240
Didn't Adele lose weight? And then
like people got mad at her? Yeah,

288
00:24:03.279 --> 00:24:06.400
no, she used to be a
joke. Like people used to make

289
00:24:06.400 --> 00:24:07.200
fun of her weight, and you
know, oh my god, she's wearing

290
00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:10.240
spanks and allose kinds of and then
she lost the weight and they're like,

291
00:24:10.240 --> 00:24:15.240
oh, you're not being true to
yourself, you know, and and good

292
00:24:15.279 --> 00:24:18.880
on her. She's just like she's
she's like, I'm adele. I don't

293
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:21.599
care, right, And if you
don't care, if you're happy, then

294
00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:23.039
you know, I just want people
to be happy. That's great, I

295
00:24:23.079 --> 00:24:26.440
know that. Like you said,
I went to the doctor and they're like,

296
00:24:26.519 --> 00:24:27.519
dude, you need to lose some
weight. And I sure did,

297
00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:32.240
right, Like I lost seventy five
pounds just eating plain baked potatoes. We've

298
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:33.599
talked about this before in the show. And now I go to the gym

299
00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:37.279
like all the time. I'm addicted
to it, right, and I personally

300
00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:40.680
I'm happier now and I feel better. But I mean, hey, if

301
00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:42.640
you feel great about yourself, like
if you're like Liz O, you go

302
00:24:42.759 --> 00:24:45.720
queen and go to the fat hunt, I don't care. Yeah, but

303
00:24:45.759 --> 00:24:48.799
the fact that you have to show
up to feel great about yourself, do

304
00:24:48.799 --> 00:24:52.559
you know what I'm saying? Makes
me think that maybe you don't feel great

305
00:24:52.599 --> 00:24:56.359
about yourself. And and that's fine, Like people are inherent I'm sure there's

306
00:24:56.359 --> 00:25:00.480
still things that bother you about yourself, even from a health perspective. Right,

307
00:25:00.839 --> 00:25:03.200
Oh no, no, I'm constantly
working on it, right yeah.

308
00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:07.359
Yeah. So anyway, Uh so
that's you know, if you need something

309
00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:11.079
to do this weekend, there you
go six forty three cac O Day radio

310
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:17.160
program. But whatever you do,
because I feel the temptation will be there,

311
00:25:17.680 --> 00:25:22.200
don't go to the McDonald's. Apparently
there is a there's some four D

312
00:25:22.440 --> 00:25:26.319
chess going on, and uh you
got to be really smart to figure it

313
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:32.839
out. And the apparently this woman
is I'll explain next hang out keeping you

314
00:25:32.920 --> 00:25:37.920
connected. This is ninety four to
five WPTI in the Triad and one on

315
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:41.200
six one FM Talk and the Triangle. All right, so I did find

316
00:25:41.240 --> 00:25:47.279
the I found the speaker's list and
programming lists for for the fact on there

317
00:25:47.400 --> 00:25:55.799
ross keynote speakers ready, three of
them, doctor Bianca Loreno, Tigris Osbourne,

318
00:25:56.640 --> 00:26:02.200
and uh the I guess the the
big speaker. I didn't mean it

319
00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:06.880
like that. A lot of booty, So there's gotta be some sort of

320
00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:11.759
like an adult star or something.
Right, Well, I did look up

321
00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:19.000
the bio hailing from the Bay Area. This internationally renowned cabaret and burlesque sensation

322
00:26:19.200 --> 00:26:25.640
nailed it. Yeah you did so. I don't know if you've given lessons

323
00:26:25.720 --> 00:26:32.279
or talking about that. Osborne is
a fat rights advocate. Hope she heart

324
00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:38.559
got some pronouns there? And where
does this woman other woman teach? I

325
00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:41.359
don't know. Oh, she does
stuff with Netflix. Well there you go.

326
00:26:42.839 --> 00:26:52.079
Okay, well that's that. And
then other speakers Angelina Moles, Saucy

327
00:26:52.279 --> 00:26:57.920
West, and the world famous Bob
I don't even know. All right,

328
00:26:57.960 --> 00:27:03.000
so there you go. Just a
little more info. Uh, use Ross's

329
00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:07.119
promo code if you book and have
fun over there? All right? So,

330
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:14.519
no, here's what I want to
look at the schedule. No,

331
00:27:14.759 --> 00:27:22.160
it is all it's all like you
look, everything's fine, and here's how

332
00:27:22.200 --> 00:27:26.440
to sue. I'm just kind of
looking at this. Oh wow, I

333
00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:37.720
can't ooh ooh wow. There's a
lot of really adult breakout groups here that

334
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:45.559
I like. Okay, all right, well have fun with that. Let

335
00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:48.680
me jump over to this. Let's
say you do wandering in the McDonald's nearby.

336
00:27:51.319 --> 00:27:53.240
I was just thinking, Ross,
can you imagine you're some like you.

337
00:27:53.400 --> 00:27:56.480
Let's say you work for one of
the you know, one of the

338
00:27:56.480 --> 00:28:00.680
North Carolina tech companies, right,
and you got to go, you know,

339
00:28:00.839 --> 00:28:03.039
new Year, got to go see
one of your big clients. And

340
00:28:03.079 --> 00:28:10.799
you're on that direct to Seattle on
Friday from Aready you right, you show

341
00:28:10.839 --> 00:28:14.039
up at the gate, You're like, what's going on? Man? Right?

342
00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:22.039
Why is everyone going to Seattle?
I just let you know that could

343
00:28:22.039 --> 00:28:26.440
be a thing. All right,
let me jump to this. I I

344
00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:32.720
don't know, man, I'm like, I think it's real. Ross.

345
00:28:32.720 --> 00:28:37.440
What do you think of the Israel
McDonald's thing? Real? Right? Oh?

346
00:28:37.440 --> 00:28:38.000
No, I don't think it's a
hoax at all. I think it's

347
00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:41.920
complete moonbat. But you know how
it is that you got to run.

348
00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:44.720
You got to run this now in
your head. No, I think I

349
00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:48.640
think absolutely complete moonbed. So what
did she get? She got to a

350
00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:52.079
mc chicken or something, and you
know, here's the deal. I don't

351
00:28:52.160 --> 00:28:56.720
I guess I don't know. Maybe
subconsciously I know what the packaging is supposed

352
00:28:56.720 --> 00:29:02.359
to look like on the different sandwiches. I just I don't know if it

353
00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:06.200
would stand out if I unwrapped it
and it was what I know I've gotten

354
00:29:06.200 --> 00:29:10.279
that wrapper before? Oh wow,
Like I can't remember. It was like

355
00:29:10.359 --> 00:29:12.799
either like a chicken, or like
the what's the fish sandwich they have?

356
00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:19.000
The is the fish filet of the
flame? Right? Yeah? I think

357
00:29:19.039 --> 00:29:22.079
that's when it comes in. And
then I think, you know, sometime

358
00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:25.799
you've been to stories before where you
know you have your favorite sandwich and sometimes

359
00:29:25.799 --> 00:29:27.200
it comes out in a different wrapper, and it's because they run out of

360
00:29:27.559 --> 00:29:30.440
the one they usually wrap it and
they're like, well, we need to

361
00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:33.400
wrap it up in some putting this
right? But you know why they run

362
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:38.920
out right? Well obviously the Jews? Yes, yes, how do we

363
00:29:38.960 --> 00:29:44.559
know? Listen to this chick coming
back in after eating the sandwich. Mind

364
00:29:44.599 --> 00:29:51.240
you, sandwich is done and she's
taken up her wrapper, which is white

365
00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:55.839
with blue lettering. So the word
McDonald's and the logo were in blue.

366
00:29:56.359 --> 00:29:59.160
The rest of the wrapper is white. Here we go. So I was

367
00:29:59.200 --> 00:30:02.640
starving, so I to get one
quick sandwich from here, and I thought

368
00:30:02.680 --> 00:30:08.039
they gave me the wrong sandwich.
But conveniently McDonald's change their packaging. Wow,

369
00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:15.000
what does that resemble? And at
first I'm watching this and I'm like,

370
00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:18.599
like she think the m me is
like, I mean, what what

371
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:21.920
the hell is her beef? And
then we get the big reveal is She

372
00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:25.480
now decides to go bug the poor
guy at the cash register. Yeah,

373
00:30:25.920 --> 00:30:30.799
what is the Yeah, what is
this new packaging chicken racker? Well?

374
00:30:30.799 --> 00:30:33.880
Why is it blue and white?
I don't, I don't know. I

375
00:30:33.920 --> 00:30:40.400
think you do know this isn't support
of Israel, right right? Because also

376
00:30:41.079 --> 00:30:45.720
this dude obviously sits in on all
the board meetings. I think that's pretty

377
00:30:45.720 --> 00:30:51.079
clear. The the you know,
the shift manager running the I'm not knocking

378
00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:53.759
on the guy because uh, you
know, good on him. I lost

379
00:30:53.799 --> 00:30:57.720
my crap. So if somebody needs
fifteen an hour, it's probably this guy.

380
00:30:57.799 --> 00:31:03.279
But uh, anyway, so she's
also assuming he's in on the plot.

381
00:31:04.640 --> 00:31:07.960
It was like that. Actually he
sends a few months ago because we

382
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:11.160
ran out of the regular long No, I don't think so this is Davisan's

383
00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:12.759
part of a zoo. No,
I mean we actually had that for a

384
00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:17.759
while though I was here two weeks
ago and it wasn't like that. I

385
00:31:17.799 --> 00:31:19.480
mean, we kind of stuff.
I know, I know this is not

386
00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:23.160
your fault because you're an employee,
but I think this is disgusting for them

387
00:31:23.200 --> 00:31:26.240
to do this. And I know
you in your heart, you know in

388
00:31:26.279 --> 00:31:30.160
your heart that this is clearly what
this rapper is for. But which,

389
00:31:30.160 --> 00:31:33.359
by the way, didn't you just
get done like saying that he was in

390
00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:37.440
on the plot, this guy behind
the register, like like like Oscar Schindler

391
00:31:37.519 --> 00:31:41.319
there, Yeah, yeah, hide, what's really going on? We know

392
00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:45.119
what you're doing, buddy. You
know, you know you were there,

393
00:31:45.200 --> 00:31:48.200
you made the decision. I mean, I know, I'm explaining it to

394
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:51.119
you. It is, this is
what it's for. This is the color

395
00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:55.440
of their flag. This is clearly
what they're doing and what they're showing to

396
00:31:55.480 --> 00:31:57.000
people. And I think it's disgusting. What do you mean what do you

397
00:31:57.000 --> 00:32:04.960
mean what are they doing? Is
is the McChicken somehow symbolism of what colonialism?

398
00:32:05.079 --> 00:32:08.400
Or I'm so confused, ma'am.
What do you want the guy to

399
00:32:08.440 --> 00:32:14.400
do? And it's not like you
know to that point too, that rapper

400
00:32:14.599 --> 00:32:17.440
exists, like Ross was mentioning,
that's a while. It may not always

401
00:32:17.480 --> 00:32:20.680
have the McChicken, I guess.
I don't know. I don't order the

402
00:32:20.759 --> 00:32:27.680
McChicken, but like it's I recognize
it as a rapper I've seen before,

403
00:32:28.039 --> 00:32:32.119
even if it's just subconsciously on something, you know, double cheeseburger, what

404
00:32:32.160 --> 00:32:36.480
the hell it is? But no, she's convinced it's an all out,

405
00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:38.359
which, by the way, can
you imagine if that poor woman lived here

406
00:32:38.400 --> 00:32:45.240
in the triangle, right she goes
over to goes over near Duke University or

407
00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:50.319
heads over to Chapel Hill, just
saying, ma'am, if if simple blue

408
00:32:50.359 --> 00:32:54.599
and white, uh, you know
a color usage is enough to trigger you,

409
00:32:55.200 --> 00:33:00.160
don't come to the triangle. You're
gonna I hate it right there.

410
00:33:01.640 --> 00:33:06.079
But yeah, you want to go
see that video tweeted out for you Casey

411
00:33:06.160 --> 00:33:12.440
on the radio and just backcrap crazy. But hey, good for the show.

412
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:14.920
We appreciate that. All right,
coming out, We got a little

413
00:33:15.200 --> 00:33:23.440
little football stuff here. We got
more more details on this, uh the

414
00:33:23.599 --> 00:33:29.839
Greensboro police officer sergeant to Philip Dell
Nicks in the death there just a little

415
00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:35.119
more detail. It looks like during
initial appearance about kind of the sequence of

416
00:33:35.240 --> 00:33:46.720
events which just continue to prove how
wildly unnecessary that like somebody has this mindset

417
00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:51.480
where they think that they can just
go do this and then if called on

418
00:33:51.559 --> 00:33:54.799
it, uh, if if it
you know what's being alleged here from a

419
00:33:54.880 --> 00:34:02.400
callous standpoint, we'll we'll bring up
to speed on what we what we learned

420
00:34:02.480 --> 00:34:08.039
yesterday. Well, and I'm gonna
roll this end filled story in there,

421
00:34:08.119 --> 00:34:14.400
so lots to get to phone number
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight

422
00:34:14.480 --> 00:34:17.599
seven four you want to be on
the show. And just a reminder,

423
00:34:17.639 --> 00:34:21.960
we were going to chat with the
Lieutenant governor to day. He had a

424
00:34:22.199 --> 00:34:28.079
thing, so we're gonna move that
interview to tomorrow at eight o'clock. So

425
00:34:28.320 --> 00:35:06.440
f yi on that and we'll be
back. All right, good morning,

426
00:35:06.480 --> 00:35:15.320
everybody's welcome. It is seven oh
six Bacoda Radio program. Boy, this

427
00:35:15.559 --> 00:35:24.079
is a fun read right here.
So it is a list of members of

428
00:35:24.119 --> 00:35:32.719
Congress, not all members, but
members who disclosed stocks stock investment accounts,

429
00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:37.119
and uh, it's a just to
look at how they did last year.

430
00:35:39.119 --> 00:35:43.800
Were you up? Were you down? And uh, what is the let's

431
00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:46.199
see what is the base that they're
using. The using the spy so they're

432
00:35:46.239 --> 00:35:54.159
using standard and poors ETF So basically
I'm probably explaining this a little wrong.

433
00:35:54.239 --> 00:35:59.880
Somebody can correct me, but basically
they're trying to get a baseline based on

434
00:36:00.199 --> 00:36:08.320
this this aggregate security which attracts multiple
stocks with an index. Okay, so

435
00:36:08.840 --> 00:36:12.880
you know if you were to you
know, you were just to come in

436
00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:20.280
and just basically invest in the Nasdaq
as a whole, or various conglomerates,

437
00:36:20.880 --> 00:36:25.320
a collection of stocks, spiders,
stuff or or whatever you can. You

438
00:36:25.320 --> 00:36:31.119
can tell what a big investor I
am. But also it gives you a

439
00:36:31.119 --> 00:36:37.079
pretty good idea of maybe what individuals
not in Congress could have been expected.

440
00:36:37.119 --> 00:36:45.719
If I guess they roughly went in
the same direction as as return and as

441
00:36:45.760 --> 00:36:50.599
we know, last year things were
things were interesting. But it doesn't mean

442
00:36:50.639 --> 00:36:52.559
people didn't make money. If you
knew the right stocks to invest in,

443
00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:55.800
you did pretty well. And Ross, let me tell you, these people

444
00:36:55.800 --> 00:37:04.199
are smart. I thought I would
assume they're just they're they're really busy and

445
00:37:04.800 --> 00:37:09.119
you know, really sitting down and
making those smart investments get those big returns.

446
00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:13.519
Do they have enough time in the
day. I don't know. I

447
00:37:13.519 --> 00:37:16.039
mean that's why they're in Washington,
right, because they're the smartest, the

448
00:37:16.039 --> 00:37:20.119
best of the best, right r
Yeah, right? What did your stock

449
00:37:20.159 --> 00:37:22.280
portfolio go up? I have to
check eBay and see what the value of

450
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:24.840
my action figures are. I can
get back to. It's continue a while

451
00:37:24.960 --> 00:37:29.079
at it all up. I'm sure
it's going through the roof, all right.

452
00:37:29.159 --> 00:37:35.000
So the the base here, this
spy they're balancing against was twenty four

453
00:37:35.079 --> 00:37:40.039
point eight percent, So like,
that's pretty generous, right. However,

454
00:37:43.239 --> 00:37:47.440
we have members and by the way, this runs the gamut. We had

455
00:37:47.480 --> 00:37:57.639
a member of Congress whose stock portfolio
increased two hundred and forty percent last year.

456
00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:01.079
That's pretty good, right. I'm
not I'm not an investment advisor,

457
00:38:01.199 --> 00:38:08.519
but if I was, and I
could, you know, create return and

458
00:38:08.559 --> 00:38:15.639
their trading options. Again, all
these these guys man, all right,

459
00:38:16.079 --> 00:38:20.000
hold ony, because I want to
get to some of the doozy's on this

460
00:38:20.079 --> 00:38:23.320
list. Plus look at and by
the way, yeah, there's several North

461
00:38:23.320 --> 00:38:29.599
Carolina members of Congress. Brian Higgins, who is a Democrat. I don't

462
00:38:29.599 --> 00:38:35.559
know where he got the two hundred
and forty percent, but David Rouser had

463
00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:40.960
one hundred and five point six percent
return, So you know there's a Republican.

464
00:38:43.079 --> 00:38:46.280
Let's see names. We know Nancy
Pelosi up sixty five and a half

465
00:38:46.400 --> 00:38:52.280
percent. And what you find out
too when you look at these is there's

466
00:38:52.320 --> 00:38:59.119
two or three big stocks, including
stocks that specifically got a big bounce because

467
00:38:59.159 --> 00:39:05.840
of decisions that were made by Congress. Navidia would be a great example that

468
00:39:05.840 --> 00:39:09.920
that was a banger and the Pelosi's
got right in front of that, along

469
00:39:09.960 --> 00:39:22.280
with several other members Deborah Ross of
forty six point one, there's at least

470
00:39:22.280 --> 00:39:25.400
two others. Sorry, it's just
a straight list, not broken down by

471
00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:31.480
state. Oh I'll tell you what
gets interesting though. All right, hold

472
00:39:31.519 --> 00:39:43.599
on, go back to the other
list. Where's the down Yeah, I

473
00:39:43.599 --> 00:39:45.840
want to see the ones that were
under that, because like there were also

474
00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:51.760
members that lost some money. Here
we go, this is the breakout I

475
00:39:51.800 --> 00:39:55.360
was looking for. And as you
look down the list, let's see Warren

476
00:39:55.440 --> 00:40:00.480
Davidson. I don't know, he's
a Republican from somewhere down seventy seven percent,

477
00:40:00.639 --> 00:40:07.239
Virginia Fox down eleven point four.
Now again this is this is going

478
00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:12.719
to come down to what moves you
made, whether you you know, you

479
00:40:12.760 --> 00:40:15.199
know what you chose to do with
this. In fact, I want to

480
00:40:15.199 --> 00:40:21.320
be sure on the parameters here.
Let's see here, all right. So

481
00:40:21.480 --> 00:40:28.239
this is just so you know.
Returns are calculated by estimating current stocks held

482
00:40:28.280 --> 00:40:32.519
in each member's portfolio, then calculating
year to date returns, and then the

483
00:40:32.840 --> 00:40:37.039
spy year to date included for comparison. It's not an easy thing to do

484
00:40:37.119 --> 00:40:42.440
on the radio. But I know
they all like to leave to be lobbyists.

485
00:40:42.440 --> 00:40:46.239
They should probably leave to be stock
advisors because these guys are killing it,

486
00:40:46.360 --> 00:40:52.360
man. And then we'll we'll have
to see on Ross's action figures.

487
00:40:52.360 --> 00:40:57.760
I gotta think you got an up
year, right, aren't. Collectible is

488
00:40:57.840 --> 00:41:01.280
like a thing to continue because people
like sticking their money in them. I

489
00:41:01.320 --> 00:41:07.760
think last year I was reading something
where like collectibles cards, things like that

490
00:41:07.840 --> 00:41:10.679
were growing in popularity. Also,
what about your cursed Aztec gold? What

491
00:41:10.800 --> 00:41:15.079
is that even worth? That has
to go? I'm not gonna lie.

492
00:41:15.119 --> 00:41:17.079
I'm kind of scared to check on
it. Yeah, well, I don't

493
00:41:17.159 --> 00:41:20.280
know. In the vault, you
know? Yeah, but you did the

494
00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:24.199
twenty three and me you're fine,
Remember right, it's only cursed if you

495
00:41:24.199 --> 00:41:29.280
have no Native American blood and you're
what zero point two percent or something that

496
00:41:29.599 --> 00:41:34.880
works. Oh well, I don't
know. I'm not not a curse gold

497
00:41:35.239 --> 00:41:39.800
expert, but that just seems the
logical way. Here's what I don't speaking

498
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:44.519
of logic, or in this case, the lack of logic, how is

499
00:41:44.559 --> 00:41:47.480
it if the NFL really like,
are they just of the opinion that there's

500
00:41:47.599 --> 00:41:53.039
no problem? That's what I think. That's what irritates people, because,

501
00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:58.039
like to air is human and you
got to figure out, all right,

502
00:41:58.039 --> 00:42:04.519
well, how do we mitigate that. But if you don't recognize that some

503
00:42:04.719 --> 00:42:12.239
people are better at this job than
others, and you're not going to reinvent

504
00:42:12.320 --> 00:42:16.119
the wheel mid season, but you
have to have some mechanism to go.

505
00:42:16.199 --> 00:42:21.519
You know what, when we have
the highest profile games, and this week

506
00:42:21.559 --> 00:42:25.039
there's some there's some big ones.
The Ravens game could be a big game.

507
00:42:25.079 --> 00:42:30.719
We'll see what happens there. There's
I believe the last game of the

508
00:42:30.800 --> 00:42:34.719
season is probably a pretty big game. That'd be uh, you know what's

509
00:42:34.760 --> 00:42:39.079
gonna happen with the Bills and the
Dolphins. Why do you why would you

510
00:42:39.199 --> 00:42:44.800
put the refs who are who have
now been on the hot seat several times,

511
00:42:45.679 --> 00:42:51.639
several times throughout the season, of
course most recently during the Lions Cowboys

512
00:42:51.679 --> 00:42:55.039
game last week and decide, yeah, you know what, that's who we

513
00:42:55.079 --> 00:43:01.119
need officiating our big games. Well
that's what the NFL announced at Allen who

514
00:43:01.719 --> 00:43:08.599
was the Lions Cowboys guy. There
was an issue the Steelers game earlier this

515
00:43:08.679 --> 00:43:15.559
season, and then the Kansas City
game against the Packers, all of which

516
00:43:16.519 --> 00:43:23.760
just universally regarded as horrible calls,
even among the most defensive fans. And

517
00:43:23.920 --> 00:43:29.639
that's the guy you're going to trot
out. I was gonna look this up.

518
00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:32.360
You don't ross you don't know who's
officiating your game, do you?

519
00:43:32.480 --> 00:43:35.800
I don't, But I know the
guy you're speaking about, like in the

520
00:43:35.800 --> 00:43:37.840
New York Post article. Yeah,
yeah, he's going to be doing the

521
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:43.280
raven Steelers game, right, which
is very like if the Bills lose that

522
00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:49.039
game on Sunday, they're out of
the playoffs. If the Steelers beat the

523
00:43:49.119 --> 00:43:52.400
Ravens. So I hope this dude
is a fan of the Ravens. I

524
00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:55.239
hope he's like a big Lamar Jackson
fan. He's like complete Lamar stan.

525
00:43:55.719 --> 00:43:59.079
I don't know what's motivating to do. I don't know. Maybe he's got

526
00:43:59.079 --> 00:44:00.679
something out of his mind, maybe
he's got something at home that's not going

527
00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:06.239
well. But there's there are three
big calls that this guy screwed the pooch

528
00:44:06.320 --> 00:44:10.679
on this year. And if you're
the NFL, anyone even pretend that you're

529
00:44:10.760 --> 00:44:15.000
trying to get the best out there, this is the mechanism for doing it

530
00:44:15.119 --> 00:44:25.360
right. Oh man, all right, we'll be back. Hang on the

531
00:44:25.599 --> 00:44:30.039
show. After the show is on
the iHeart Radio app. Search casey O'Day

532
00:44:30.159 --> 00:44:36.360
for the podcast on the iHeart Radio
app. Oh, one other football thing

533
00:44:36.440 --> 00:44:39.360
which could be interesting. I I
you know, maybe I got a little

534
00:44:39.360 --> 00:44:45.239
bias here is the relationship with the
Jets and Dalvin Cook, who used to

535
00:44:45.280 --> 00:44:53.639
be the running back there for the
the Vikings for Pro Bowls. Wint that

536
00:44:53.719 --> 00:44:59.960
out and then we can't manage our
cap, so off he went. They've

537
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:02.880
now essentially released him so he could
go to any team. He go to,

538
00:45:02.920 --> 00:45:07.440
some team going to the playoffs.
I'm just trying to think because he's

539
00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:13.280
obviously not done right. He's still
relatively young. He just went to the

540
00:45:13.320 --> 00:45:16.280
Pro Bowl, you know, the
Jets. It's just the whole system with

541
00:45:16.320 --> 00:45:21.480
everything going on, Aaron Rodgers out
and everything. He wasn't able to thrive

542
00:45:21.519 --> 00:45:25.920
there. But I guess my question
is what team needs Dalvin Cook? And

543
00:45:27.400 --> 00:45:30.280
is that like the Vikings, probably
aren't going to the playoffs, so I

544
00:45:30.280 --> 00:45:34.519
don't have to worry about it.
But I'm trying to think which team could

545
00:45:34.559 --> 00:45:37.719
get this dude, because he's really
good, or at least was really good,

546
00:45:37.719 --> 00:45:42.800
and I think he still is.
And I don't know man, I'd

547
00:45:42.840 --> 00:45:45.639
be a little nervous if I thought
my team was going to the playoffs.

548
00:45:45.639 --> 00:45:49.079
But I can't, for the life
of me think who would hire this dude?

549
00:45:50.480 --> 00:45:52.400
Like, you guys don't need him. No, we have his brother,

550
00:45:53.119 --> 00:45:57.599
right, we have James With the
Bills, they have so many running

551
00:45:57.599 --> 00:46:01.000
backs they haven't been using now with
Dorsey are our previous offensive coordinator, finally

552
00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:05.199
they started to use them. But
we have so many good running backs.

553
00:46:05.320 --> 00:46:08.000
James Cook, his brother, is
currently number three in rushing yards in the

554
00:46:08.119 --> 00:46:12.320
NFL. Oh so yeah, a
lot of like that's kind of like a

555
00:46:12.320 --> 00:46:14.360
stat that, like, you know, a lot of people haven't paid attention

556
00:46:14.360 --> 00:46:17.280
to. But yeah, he's like
he's number three, So well, I

557
00:46:17.280 --> 00:46:20.639
know it's I and I'm sorry,
I don't pay attention because it's not.

558
00:46:20.760 --> 00:46:25.199
You guys don't really have any like
MVP potential players, so in the discussion,

559
00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:30.360
So, yeah, get this.
Josh Allen is one rushing touchdown away

560
00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:35.960
from breaking OJ Simpson's team record of
rushing touchdowns in the season. He's won

561
00:46:36.000 --> 00:46:38.719
away, right, like once a
week, Ross has his stat I don't

562
00:46:38.719 --> 00:46:40.880
do you want to wait? Do
you want OJ stats? Though? I

563
00:46:40.920 --> 00:46:46.239
mean he hey, but I'm just
saying not guilty, right, well,

564
00:46:46.679 --> 00:46:51.320
no, not the one thing.
I mean, it's not like he's like

565
00:46:51.360 --> 00:46:55.000
some crazy New England Patriots player that
murdered a bunch of people. You're not

566
00:46:55.039 --> 00:47:00.960
guilty. So I mean the glove
don't fit, you got to quit that.

567
00:47:00.440 --> 00:47:04.559
Uh that's a that's a good point. Yeah, who am I to

568
00:47:04.599 --> 00:47:07.440
argue? All right? So so
yeah, no, you guys know,

569
00:47:07.519 --> 00:47:10.480
you guys are fine over there.
I am, and not just because you

570
00:47:10.559 --> 00:47:15.599
come in once a week. Uh, making the case. The fact that

571
00:47:15.719 --> 00:47:20.440
Josh Allen is not even in the
discussion, right, it's mind blowing.

572
00:47:20.440 --> 00:47:23.800
It makes no sense. It's just
idiots going lebar Jackson isn't quarterback enough?

573
00:47:23.960 --> 00:47:29.159
Right? And then like and then
race baiting former players like that's the that

574
00:47:29.360 --> 00:47:34.159
is the the crux of the conversation. And you know, if you look

575
00:47:34.159 --> 00:47:36.800
at the stats, I'm just saying, but like, I couldn't think of

576
00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:38.360
a team that would need him,
even though it looks like he's willing to

577
00:47:38.400 --> 00:47:40.400
work for not a lot of money. Yeah, I don't know. I

578
00:47:40.400 --> 00:47:45.159
don't have no idea where he'd go, but that that could be kind of

579
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:47.320
dangerous right there. I mean,
look what happened with mcca. Look at

580
00:47:47.400 --> 00:47:51.679
McCaffrey was able to really open up
in San France. Now he's surrounded with

581
00:47:51.719 --> 00:47:55.920
good people, but absolute game changer
is obviously you know, uh, you

582
00:47:55.960 --> 00:48:01.159
know North Carolinians. No McCaffrey when
he's not made to do literally everything is

583
00:48:01.639 --> 00:48:07.199
he's a hell of a player.
And I you know, I think that

584
00:48:07.239 --> 00:48:12.800
if McCaffrey's not there, San fran
wouldn't stand a chance. So we shall

585
00:48:12.840 --> 00:48:15.880
see, but things could get a
little interesting, all right, We got

586
00:48:15.920 --> 00:48:19.840
to talk, like I said,
and we'll do this right after the bottom

587
00:48:19.880 --> 00:48:25.000
of the hour. Just a little
more info on the shooting death of a

588
00:48:25.039 --> 00:48:31.320
member of the Greensboro Police a staff. He's just a shift serge and he's

589
00:48:31.320 --> 00:48:35.599
just sitting there. He's not even
on duty. He's apparently he's just chilling

590
00:48:36.039 --> 00:48:39.000
in the same place. He likes
to sit at the same sheets. Right.

591
00:48:39.400 --> 00:48:45.199
What I suspect probably hundreds of you
out there doing listening to me.

592
00:48:45.599 --> 00:48:50.519
Probably do right, you got your
place, you stop going to or from

593
00:48:50.599 --> 00:48:53.320
work, the regular gas station.
Maybe you talk to the clerk, talk

594
00:48:53.400 --> 00:48:58.400
to some of the people, you
grab coffee, shoot the breeze. Right,

595
00:48:58.920 --> 00:49:00.960
That's that's what's going on. That's
that's what this dude's doing. It

596
00:49:01.039 --> 00:49:10.079
little work done, maybe a little
whatever from inside and and he saw what

597
00:49:10.280 --> 00:49:15.760
appeared to be something that he needed
to intervene with, and he did,

598
00:49:16.239 --> 00:49:20.519
and it it led to this this
tragedy. And I hate to just call

599
00:49:20.559 --> 00:49:24.480
it a tragedy. It's a tragedy
for law enforcement and the people depend on

600
00:49:24.559 --> 00:49:31.559
them and and the and the families
here. But tragedy implies that I I

601
00:49:31.800 --> 00:49:37.280
don't want it to lessen the blame
here. And so now when you look

602
00:49:37.280 --> 00:49:40.719
at the series of events, it
just it seems that much more callous.

603
00:49:43.320 --> 00:49:49.000
So we'll get those details for you
here in in just a few minutes.

604
00:49:49.039 --> 00:49:52.199
And you know, speaking of unnecessary
and callous, how about this great was

605
00:49:52.239 --> 00:49:59.239
he great great grandfather, He was
a great great grandfather. Who's just sitting

606
00:49:59.280 --> 00:50:05.320
in his house. This is an
Enfield does eating some cereal mine in his

607
00:50:05.400 --> 00:50:09.480
own business, and a bullet comes
flind and through the window. He's an

608
00:50:09.519 --> 00:50:15.480
apartment complex. Obviously, it looks
like there had been some issues in the

609
00:50:15.519 --> 00:50:21.599
past. And you know, this
is why we have these conversations. This

610
00:50:21.639 --> 00:50:24.280
is why when I'm you know,
in whenever I talk about Durham, I

611
00:50:25.039 --> 00:50:29.880
go a lot to the same story
of like the little kid just going to

612
00:50:29.880 --> 00:50:32.480
get a snow cone, because you
know, as soon as you stop letting

613
00:50:32.519 --> 00:50:39.199
it shock your senses. I feel
like for some people who feel that this

614
00:50:39.400 --> 00:50:45.719
cost is worth it as long as
they can get whatever the social change that

615
00:50:45.760 --> 00:50:52.599
they want, then in a way
you're kind of acquiescing to whatever. So

616
00:50:53.079 --> 00:50:58.079
we're not gonna acquiesce. We're gonna
make sure you got the latest details.

617
00:50:58.119 --> 00:51:04.639
We'll do that coming up. It
is the Cacoday Radio program phone number eight

618
00:51:04.679 --> 00:51:07.079
eight eight nine three four seven eight
seventy four, and we'll learn about cyber

619
00:51:07.199 --> 00:51:13.440
kidnapping. Hold on, Thank you. Casey is on ninety four to five

620
00:51:13.719 --> 00:51:22.480
WPTI in the Triad and one six
one FM Talk in the Triangle. All

621
00:51:22.559 --> 00:51:30.920
right, good morning and welcome.
It is seven thirty five, so it's

622
00:51:30.960 --> 00:51:37.519
not far off what I think people
in vision probably happened. But we did

623
00:51:37.599 --> 00:51:45.079
get a more definitive timeline yesterday in
the shooting of a Greensboro police officer and

624
00:51:45.840 --> 00:51:52.719
now three people under arrest. It's
uh, it's now. It's not clear

625
00:51:52.760 --> 00:51:57.760
if he's in uniform here, I
didn't see, but he was off duty

626
00:51:57.800 --> 00:52:01.239
at the time. Sergeant Philip Dale
Nicks. He was at this sheets,

627
00:52:01.280 --> 00:52:07.440
it says sheets he always goes to. According to the district attorney, he

628
00:52:07.519 --> 00:52:09.360
frequented it, like to go there
in his downtime, get a little work

629
00:52:09.440 --> 00:52:15.440
done, shoot the breeze, get
a coffee, you know whatever. And

630
00:52:15.679 --> 00:52:20.039
according to the DA, Nix was
sitting outside at a table when he noticed

631
00:52:20.039 --> 00:52:24.159
a car parked in a handicapped spot. He did have his badge and gun,

632
00:52:24.199 --> 00:52:29.159
it's unclear whether it was in uniform, and he, you know,

633
00:52:29.239 --> 00:52:34.559
he did what his years of training
kind of you know, just innately does,

634
00:52:34.719 --> 00:52:39.920
and that is notice stuff, right, and he notices this car parked

635
00:52:39.920 --> 00:52:45.400
in the handicapped and it appears here
that the three individuals don't appear to be

636
00:52:45.440 --> 00:52:55.920
handicapped, so you know he's watching. According to DA Morrison and Foster,

637
00:52:57.119 --> 00:53:00.559
two of the individuals arrested, Each
stole five cases of what I believe they

638
00:53:00.599 --> 00:53:07.239
said was modello and then went out
to the car and that's when investigators say

639
00:53:07.320 --> 00:53:15.039
Nick approached the driver's side, at
which point it's alleged that Foster Zamir Foster

640
00:53:15.679 --> 00:53:22.360
opened fire and shot him five times. Let's see Foster and black Well no

641
00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:29.360
prior convictions. Morrison one of the
three has two felonies and they'll be back

642
00:53:29.400 --> 00:53:34.000
in court April second. So I
don't know how much of a conversation there

643
00:53:34.159 --> 00:53:38.280
was. I don't know if he
identified himself or if he was literally just

644
00:53:38.360 --> 00:53:45.400
going up to make contact. But
you know the audacity of the tragedy man,

645
00:53:46.239 --> 00:53:52.079
and you know where you see people
who feel in bold and just go

646
00:53:52.159 --> 00:53:58.239
in and take whatever they want.
Who's gonna stop me? And in this

647
00:53:58.440 --> 00:54:02.159
case, it looked like this this
guy may have stopped him. So I

648
00:54:02.199 --> 00:54:06.000
you know, I'll be curious obviously
as we get deeper into it, how

649
00:54:06.880 --> 00:54:13.440
you know whether there was a conversation, whether he identified But oh, look

650
00:54:13.480 --> 00:54:16.960
at that. Oh okay, all
right, we got Mark Walker calling in.

651
00:54:17.400 --> 00:54:21.480
Oh all right, so Mark actually
knows the family here. Let me

652
00:54:21.519 --> 00:54:27.519
do this Mark, what's going on
this morning? Hey, Happy New Year

653
00:54:27.599 --> 00:54:31.280
to you and Ross. Yeah,
it's a very it still has our community

654
00:54:31.320 --> 00:54:38.159
really. Dale Nicks was an incredible
guy, family man talking with his uncle

655
00:54:38.280 --> 00:54:45.039
just a couple of days ago their
family casey. They have one hundred and

656
00:54:45.079 --> 00:54:51.159
fifty eight years of community service community
service between the fire departments and the police

657
00:54:51.159 --> 00:54:58.519
department here in Greensboro. His his
lease specifically what he worked on was protecting

658
00:54:59.039 --> 00:55:04.599
victims of domestic violence. So it's
a huge loss for Greensboro. Once again,

659
00:55:04.679 --> 00:55:09.719
another senseless killing. Greensboro set a
record back in November of had many

660
00:55:09.800 --> 00:55:14.400
murders. We've got a great police
chief and John Thompson. In fact,

661
00:55:14.440 --> 00:55:19.360
we've had three police chiefs in the
last seven years. Wayne Scott is another

662
00:55:19.400 --> 00:55:22.719
one that was a great police chief. But the community is going to have

663
00:55:22.840 --> 00:55:25.719
to engage to shut some of this
stuff down. We can't put it all

664
00:55:25.719 --> 00:55:30.400
on law enforcement, but it's a
huge loss for our Greensboro community. I

665
00:55:30.440 --> 00:55:35.800
get frustrated, and maybe in a
way, I'm kind of the people who

666
00:55:35.920 --> 00:55:38.960
lash out over thoughts and prayers because
in their mind they, you know,

667
00:55:39.039 --> 00:55:45.360
many of them believe that the Republican
policy leads to this and throwing thoughts and

668
00:55:45.400 --> 00:55:49.000
prayers is too little, too late. But I said there, and I

669
00:55:49.039 --> 00:55:54.719
see statements by politicians who I don't
feel have law enforcement's best interests, and

670
00:55:54.760 --> 00:55:59.639
I hate to already get into this, but it's what's highlighted in all these

671
00:55:59.639 --> 00:56:02.159
stories. I don't care what Josh
Stein thinks, and I don't care what

672
00:56:02.239 --> 00:56:07.079
Governor Cooper thinks in the sense that
I haven't seen them be proactive on this

673
00:56:07.199 --> 00:56:14.480
stuff. So no, make a
point. Yeah, most definitely, and

674
00:56:14.519 --> 00:56:16.960
I think there's evidence to back it
up because over the last five or seven

675
00:56:17.039 --> 00:56:22.239
years, remember we if the police
departments in law enforcement, they had to

676
00:56:22.239 --> 00:56:24.519
go through all this non bias training
and all the different things that have been

677
00:56:24.559 --> 00:56:31.639
implemented, and we're setting records of
homicides in our cities when the Salem's another

678
00:56:31.679 --> 00:56:36.400
one here in the Triad, and
you talked about Durham as well. This

679
00:56:36.519 --> 00:56:40.599
is out of control. It is
not the police department hasn't been supported and

680
00:56:40.639 --> 00:56:44.599
we've seen this from the highest level. Not to rehash all of this,

681
00:56:44.800 --> 00:56:51.760
but former President Barack Obama showed that
it's okay to disrespect law enforcement and police

682
00:56:51.760 --> 00:56:55.400
departments even before you know all the
facts, when he blamed the Cambridge police

683
00:56:55.440 --> 00:57:00.000
officer from some kind of racial bias. This has been happening over the last

684
00:57:00.000 --> 00:57:04.679
ten or fifteen years, the lack
of respect, and this is the result

685
00:57:04.760 --> 00:57:09.199
when you have an eighteen year old
young man that can shoot a gentleman,

686
00:57:09.320 --> 00:57:15.440
a law enforcement officer that gives so
much back this community five times before he

687
00:57:15.559 --> 00:57:21.559
ever even hits the ground. That
shows you the depth of the depravity of

688
00:57:21.599 --> 00:57:24.800
our society when it comes to the
lack of respect not just for law enforcement,

689
00:57:24.880 --> 00:57:31.039
but for life itself. The whole
scenario. I saw people that were

690
00:57:31.039 --> 00:57:36.039
going well, you know, in
a way he's profiling. This is the

691
00:57:36.079 --> 00:57:39.079
stuff that also kills me. They're
going well, you know what he saw

692
00:57:39.119 --> 00:57:45.000
is saw he saw three black people
in a car in a handicap and he

693
00:57:45.039 --> 00:57:47.559
made assumptions. And I'm like,
no, he saw three able bodied people

694
00:57:47.639 --> 00:57:51.599
in a handicapped spot coming out with
a bunch of beer. And I don't

695
00:57:51.599 --> 00:57:53.519
know, maybe they gave him a
nervous look, but two of them are

696
00:57:53.599 --> 00:57:59.800
quite literally underage and appear to be
I would point out, and I'm like,

697
00:58:00.039 --> 00:58:02.239
we're going to get into the depths
of this crap. Well, we'll

698
00:58:02.239 --> 00:58:06.199
strow. You know, while we're
just days out of this, I don't

699
00:58:06.239 --> 00:58:10.320
know that anyone's learning their lesson.
Man. No, I'm a guy that's

700
00:58:10.320 --> 00:58:15.159
a twenty year veteran on the police
department. I'm going to trust his instincts,

701
00:58:15.280 --> 00:58:17.880
especially when you've got the kind of
record that Dale had Sergeant Dale Nicks

702
00:58:17.920 --> 00:58:23.119
did. That's the thing. We
no longer we give the criminals the benefit

703
00:58:23.159 --> 00:58:28.079
of the doubt as opposed to law
enforcement. That's what's changed in the last

704
00:58:28.119 --> 00:58:30.760
ten or fifteen years, and that's
one of the reasons that we're in the

705
00:58:30.800 --> 00:58:34.320
situation that we're in today. Yeah, all right, he Mark, appreciate

706
00:58:34.400 --> 00:58:38.159
you calling in this morning. And
again, you never you never want to

707
00:58:38.159 --> 00:58:43.679
start the new year with a story
like this, and and here we are,

708
00:58:44.079 --> 00:58:47.000
and who knows what numbers are.
We're looking at from a record perspective

709
00:58:47.039 --> 00:58:51.119
because now we got to beat last
year in several cities. So yeah,

710
00:58:51.239 --> 00:58:54.199
well, we appreciate you bringing this
up. Memorial services next week, and

711
00:58:54.239 --> 00:58:58.519
I know we talked about prayers,
but I've talked to the next family.

712
00:58:58.559 --> 00:59:01.559
They're very appreciative of the and acknowledgement
from the community. So we thank you

713
00:59:01.599 --> 00:59:04.880
for it. All right, I
have a good one there, Mark,

714
00:59:04.960 --> 00:59:07.920
appreciate it. And uh, let
me do this as we'll get more we

715
00:59:07.960 --> 00:59:12.800
can get more calls on this on
this but yeah, just a little better

716
00:59:12.840 --> 00:59:19.920
timeline as to how that went and
obviously more details forth coming on April.

717
00:59:20.000 --> 00:59:25.199
Second, how did that not hold? I swear I hit the hold there.

718
00:59:27.039 --> 00:59:30.960
Well anyway, Uh, but first
let's get rayed Stagic if he's ready

719
00:59:30.960 --> 00:59:36.280
to write for the Weather channel.
Hey, welcome back. Hey, Hey,

720
00:59:36.360 --> 00:59:39.400
how you doing? No? Are
we are we declaring you eligible to

721
00:59:39.440 --> 00:59:45.639
do the weather? Yeah? Why
not? How about that? Huh?

722
00:59:45.719 --> 00:59:51.400
Yeah? Yeah? What did I
miss? Going back to the Cowboys game?

723
00:59:51.519 --> 00:59:54.159
Oh yeah, just clicked. It
just clicked. Yeah, I mean

724
00:59:54.719 --> 01:00:00.559
yeah, so listen it wasn't for
a lucky ninety something yard pass, which

725
01:00:00.599 --> 01:00:06.320
it was lucky. Yeah, they
win. But listen, I do love

726
01:00:06.480 --> 01:00:10.880
and I mean love the element of
their being officials and umpires, and I

727
01:00:12.000 --> 01:00:15.199
do like replay to an extent.
I mean, we're not talking specifically about

728
01:00:15.199 --> 01:00:19.400
this case because who said what to
who and when? You know, they

729
01:00:19.519 --> 01:00:23.039
probably did and it's probably the wrong
call on that, but you know,

730
01:00:23.079 --> 01:00:27.039
you hear more and more about more
replay. There needs to be more like

731
01:00:27.280 --> 01:00:30.000
eventually, like baseball going away from
umpire No, no, no, why

732
01:00:30.039 --> 01:00:32.800
we want to do that. We
want to have this human l of the

733
01:00:32.920 --> 01:00:37.280
element into it, don't we,
right, No, Jerry Jones can't bribe

734
01:00:37.320 --> 01:00:42.039
an ai so no, well not
yet. Anyway, who knows he's looking.

735
01:00:42.320 --> 01:00:45.559
He was looking a little, uh, a little a little slower,

736
01:00:45.280 --> 01:00:49.920
he looked. Did you watch the
ceremony? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,

737
01:00:49.960 --> 01:00:52.599
yeah, that was pretty cool.
That was pretty cool. Now, whether

738
01:00:52.679 --> 01:00:54.960
or not their relationship is mended or
all, that was just for show,

739
01:00:55.360 --> 01:00:59.599
I don't know, but it looked
like they got along and they they needed

740
01:00:59.599 --> 01:01:04.280
to. So all right, Jerry, and I see that your boys hair

741
01:01:04.519 --> 01:01:08.320
is still Jimmy's hair is just still. And can I ask you a question?

742
01:01:08.400 --> 01:01:15.280
And maybe for Ross too, wouldn't
you love to have him on your

743
01:01:15.360 --> 01:01:20.599
sideline coach and your team? Still
to this day, I would love to

744
01:01:20.639 --> 01:01:25.400
have who Jimmy Johnson. Jimmy Johnson
absolutely, I mean, I think he'd

745
01:01:25.440 --> 01:01:29.199
be really good at defending the run, you know, teaching his team to

746
01:01:29.239 --> 01:01:32.159
defend. You know, right we
were brushing up the middle of the Cowboys.

747
01:01:32.199 --> 01:01:37.480
I'm sure he could really defend because
he wouldn't want that to happen repeatedly

748
01:01:37.559 --> 01:01:43.039
the entire game. Well, I'm
just I'm just saying I don't like that.

749
01:01:43.880 --> 01:01:45.559
I'm not going to say I dislike
McCarthy. I just love to have

750
01:01:45.639 --> 01:01:50.239
Jimmy Johnson back. Anyway. Anyway, a lot of tales to be told

751
01:01:50.239 --> 01:01:55.840
this weekend about placing and speaking of
events that involved sports. If you are

752
01:01:55.880 --> 01:01:59.920
a Tar Heel fan and you are
heading into Clemson, a little john for

753
01:02:00.119 --> 01:02:04.760
the noon tip off on Saturday.
There's a weather element tied to this.

754
01:02:05.639 --> 01:02:10.880
If you're leaving Saturday morning, give
yourself a little extra time. It's gonna

755
01:02:10.920 --> 01:02:15.760
be wet and it may be briefly
icy, especially the further west southwest you

756
01:02:15.800 --> 01:02:20.280
go, if you're heading out of
Raleigh and heading down into South Carolina going

757
01:02:20.320 --> 01:02:22.519
on to eighty five. I think
the interstates are gonna be okay, but

758
01:02:22.559 --> 01:02:29.559
there is a little bit of maybe
freezing drizzle or light freezing rain, especially

759
01:02:29.559 --> 01:02:34.480
as you go further west and southwest
out of the state and into South Carolina,

760
01:02:34.559 --> 01:02:37.719
and then rain, So either way
it's gonna be Slower're just telling everyone,

761
01:02:37.239 --> 01:02:42.119
especially gonna try to take one of
these side routes or something that everybody

762
01:02:42.119 --> 01:02:44.800
thinks maybe a little bit quicker.
Gon'll do it as I would. You

763
01:02:44.880 --> 01:02:47.480
just don't know, Yeah, yeah, the fastest whatever, right, yes,

764
01:02:47.559 --> 01:02:50.639
the super route. But anyway,
until then, we're in good shape.

765
01:02:50.639 --> 01:02:52.639
Low fifties today, near fifty tomorrow. There might be a little rain

766
01:02:52.760 --> 01:02:55.880
early tonight. Other than that,
no problems. Friday looks sunny. We're

767
01:02:55.880 --> 01:03:00.360
in the forties and it's Friday night, and Saturday we're mainly rain. Try

768
01:03:00.400 --> 01:03:02.599
a triangle into the mountains. There'll
be some snow and ice. There may

769
01:03:02.679 --> 01:03:07.800
briefly early Saturday morning be a little
bit of freezing rain or like freezing dur

770
01:03:07.960 --> 01:03:12.400
but not looking at big accumulations here. If you want accumulations head of the

771
01:03:12.440 --> 01:03:15.760
mountains, that's where there may be
some problems. Okay, all right,

772
01:03:15.800 --> 01:03:17.920
well, well that was a lot. Sorry, Look, some people be

773
01:03:17.960 --> 01:03:22.000
digging on that. Man, it'll
get up in the mountains, get a

774
01:03:22.000 --> 01:03:23.760
little snow up there. But yeah, yeah, it's just the ice that

775
01:03:23.880 --> 01:03:27.960
sucks. So all right, thank
you, appreciate it. Yep, there

776
01:03:27.960 --> 01:03:30.519
you go. Raced agic from the
Weather Channel. All Right, lots to

777
01:03:30.599 --> 01:03:35.519
get to. Like I said,
normally we'd have the Lieutenant Governor eighth five.

778
01:03:35.559 --> 01:03:39.440
We had to move that to tomorrow, so we will obviously still chat

779
01:03:39.480 --> 01:03:44.039
with him, and Lord knows,
there's enough to talk about, but there

780
01:03:44.039 --> 01:03:47.079
will be a twenty four hour delay, so we'll get back into it next

781
01:03:47.159 --> 01:03:52.159
cacoday. Your calls coming up.
Hang on. This is one six one

782
01:03:52.360 --> 01:03:58.000
FM Talk in the Triangle and News
Talk ninety four to five w PTI and

783
01:03:58.079 --> 01:04:01.199
the Triad. Oh man, oh
man. All right, wait, I

784
01:04:01.239 --> 01:04:06.559
just saw this story from the University
of Wisconts, Wisconsin lacrosse right there on

785
01:04:06.599 --> 01:04:13.599
the Minnesota border on the Mississippi River. They have a little problem. We'll

786
01:04:13.639 --> 01:04:20.159
get to that. But went around
out phone calls talking about the shooting death

787
01:04:20.239 --> 01:04:27.880
of Greensboro Sergeant Nix. Greensboro officer, Sergeant Nix chatting with Mark Walker there

788
01:04:27.920 --> 01:04:33.800
he's a little insight from the family
and what an absolutely heartbreaking and tragic story

789
01:04:33.800 --> 01:04:39.320
to start the new year with.
And we found just a little more detail

790
01:04:39.480 --> 01:04:44.800
during the initial appearance, Basically he
sees a car, he sees something doesn't

791
01:04:44.840 --> 01:04:49.199
look right in a handicap spot.
Obviously, you know handicaps are right there,

792
01:04:49.239 --> 01:04:55.199
so you're gonna part close for your
getaway. And here comes two out

793
01:04:55.199 --> 01:04:59.800
of the store with all the modello
and they don't look like they're of age.

794
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:02.920
And even though he's off duty,
the sergeant goes over to start some

795
01:05:02.960 --> 01:05:09.440
sort of inquiry and is immediately met
with a gunfire out the window, striking

796
01:05:09.519 --> 01:05:15.280
him five times over beer and you
got some people want to play games within

797
01:05:15.360 --> 01:05:19.360
and I just I don't know,
just kind of feel like the goal is

798
01:05:19.679 --> 01:05:24.119
we should look at any contributing factor
here and maybe go, hey, could

799
01:05:24.119 --> 01:05:28.679
we do better? Especially coupled with
the numbers that like the city of Greensboro

800
01:05:28.719 --> 01:05:33.880
itself saw and many others last year. Let me grab this called Lindsey.

801
01:05:34.400 --> 01:05:41.039
What's up? Hi? Good morning, how are you good? So I'm

802
01:05:41.079 --> 01:05:46.320
calling in because I run the nonprofit
back to Bluency right and you may be

803
01:05:46.400 --> 01:05:50.760
familiar with us, But what we
do is we assist the children and families

804
01:05:50.760 --> 01:05:56.719
of offstars killed in the line of
duty. And so with the situation with

805
01:05:56.920 --> 01:06:01.519
Sergeant Nix, even though he was
technically you know, when you're an officer,

806
01:06:02.239 --> 01:06:08.320
you're not really off duty, so
he was still performing in the capacity

807
01:06:08.920 --> 01:06:15.360
of the law enforcement profession. So
we are fundraising right now to help to

808
01:06:15.360 --> 01:06:21.199
just the wife and the children of
Sergeant Nicks. Okay, well, did

809
01:06:21.559 --> 01:06:27.480
you want to tell people like the
social media or the website or yeah?

810
01:06:27.519 --> 01:06:33.320
Absolutely so they can find us on
Facebook back to Blue NC Incorporated, or

811
01:06:33.440 --> 01:06:38.639
our website back to Blue andc dot
org. And we do have a GoFundMe

812
01:06:38.760 --> 01:06:43.199
listed on both right now. So
if you would like to assist the family,

813
01:06:43.960 --> 01:06:47.719
please visit and donate if you can, if not, share, and

814
01:06:47.840 --> 01:06:53.639
I encourage people to stop by the
station. They have a vehicle set up

815
01:06:53.679 --> 01:06:59.239
there where you can lay flowers and
pay your respects. And this has just

816
01:06:59.239 --> 01:07:03.480
been such a chargic situation with the
nonprofit. We're hoping to get through the

817
01:07:03.559 --> 01:07:09.519
end of the year with no more
law enforcement dusks. And unfortunately, Sergeant

818
01:07:09.599 --> 01:07:14.079
Nick's a twenty two year better and
lost his life just trying to, like

819
01:07:14.159 --> 01:07:18.119
you said, investigate a suspicious situation
and he gets so hot and killed over

820
01:07:18.760 --> 01:07:21.679
eighty four dollars worth of beer.
Yeah, I was gonna say, and

821
01:07:23.400 --> 01:07:28.440
I don't this is not too This
is not a judgment on his choice to

822
01:07:28.440 --> 01:07:30.559
do it, but it's just like
he went to go investigate something that's just

823
01:07:30.599 --> 01:07:34.559
so high school kids partying, do
you know what I mean? Just like

824
01:07:34.719 --> 01:07:39.400
exactly right, you know, something
like when I was like, if we

825
01:07:39.400 --> 01:07:43.199
were looking at sketching a parking lot, then like the one of the officers

826
01:07:43.199 --> 01:07:45.000
may come talk to us. So
he's just like, this is just so

827
01:07:45.199 --> 01:07:48.960
nonchalant. Are these kids still in
beer? I mean? And for it

828
01:07:49.000 --> 01:07:53.960
to escalate and apparently escalates so quickly, lindsay, do you I don't have

829
01:07:54.000 --> 01:07:57.960
it in front? How many law
enforcement officers did we lose in North Carolina

830
01:07:58.039 --> 01:08:08.000
last year? We lost five or
five or six officers this last year,

831
01:08:08.440 --> 01:08:12.639
and like I said, we always
stepped in to assist the department and the

832
01:08:12.639 --> 01:08:18.439
family. Sweet tend the funerals and
memorials. We provide support for the families.

833
01:08:18.479 --> 01:08:25.479
We have a chaplain that's twenty four
seven available confidentials. Anybody needs to

834
01:08:25.520 --> 01:08:30.159
talk to her. But definitely showing
support right now for the family is the

835
01:08:30.159 --> 01:08:35.279
biggest thing. The community coming together
and showing the family that the love and

836
01:08:35.319 --> 01:08:40.520
the support that we have for Sargeant
Nicks and law enforcement all around is definitely

837
01:08:40.600 --> 01:08:44.199
helpful at this time. All right, well I again back to blue and

838
01:08:44.239 --> 01:08:47.159
see I appreciate you calling in this
morning. Okay, thank you, all

839
01:08:47.279 --> 01:08:53.000
right, and again our phone number
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight

840
01:08:53.079 --> 01:08:56.680
seven four. And that's a good
point too, because like technically not on

841
01:08:56.800 --> 01:09:00.479
duty, but still performing law enforcement. Remember one of the one of the

842
01:09:00.520 --> 01:09:06.239
individuals killed in that the shooting,
I guess that was technically this year.

843
01:09:06.520 --> 01:09:13.119
I'm trying to do the calendar in
my head was folliops Thro who was literally

844
01:09:13.119 --> 01:09:20.560
going to work with you know,
one of the five people killed by this

845
01:09:21.720 --> 01:09:30.920
lunatic who again shot his own brothers. So yeah, it comes in all

846
01:09:30.000 --> 01:09:34.840
forms and folks out there helping.
So if you're so inclined, feel free

847
01:09:35.560 --> 01:09:40.960
back the blue All right, news
is next. Hang on, Oh and

848
01:09:41.000 --> 01:09:45.520
it's Wednesday already. I love those
four day weeks. Normally, since it

849
01:09:45.600 --> 01:09:49.279
is Wednesday and it's the first Wednesday
of the month, we would be chatting

850
01:09:49.319 --> 01:09:54.239
with Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson, but
we did have to move it a day.

851
01:09:54.399 --> 01:10:01.560
So bad's tomorrow, twenty four hours
from literally right now. Well we'll

852
01:10:01.680 --> 01:10:04.640
chat with him, and boyl boy, do I get a laundry list?

853
01:10:04.680 --> 01:10:12.880
All right? So check this check
this story out. University of Wisconsin lacrosse.

854
01:10:13.199 --> 01:10:15.359
I like rosse lacrosse, a nice
little talent. I lived in Minnesota,

855
01:10:15.359 --> 01:10:18.960
had a lot of friends down in
that area right on the Mississippi River.

856
01:10:19.000 --> 01:10:26.319
There. They do get a little
bad rap because it's kind of really

857
01:10:26.399 --> 01:10:33.439
methy. And there's a YouTube channel
called Code Blue Cams which goes really viral

858
01:10:34.840 --> 01:10:41.680
because they just have insane body cams. And but but all the camera or

859
01:10:41.720 --> 01:10:45.520
all of the cams seem to originate
from like western Wisconsin. So you see

860
01:10:45.560 --> 01:10:49.640
a lot of lacrosse people, which
is good because some of them are insanely

861
01:10:49.840 --> 01:10:58.119
entertaining, like Florida dude However,
this is in the world of academia a

862
01:10:58.199 --> 01:11:03.800
little dust up. Obviously, we've
seen where teachers who have decided, hey,

863
01:11:05.000 --> 01:11:10.800
i'll make some more money. How's
about we do I don't know.

864
01:11:11.439 --> 01:11:15.920
Porton have have been a story,
and they are several stories that we have

865
01:11:16.039 --> 01:11:21.680
done, including ones who even filmed
in their own classrooms. But you know,

866
01:11:21.960 --> 01:11:26.239
just the act of finding it out
and then the kids finding it out

867
01:11:26.359 --> 01:11:31.800
has undone many a career. Well, this is college and there's a lot

868
01:11:31.840 --> 01:11:40.920
more to it. The University of
Wisconsin Lacrosse chancellor has been fired because he

869
01:11:41.000 --> 01:11:48.760
is a side porn gig. The
chancellor of the University of Wisconsin Lacrosse God

870
01:11:48.800 --> 01:11:56.159
by the name of Joe Goo,
and a professor his wife named Carmen Wilson

871
01:11:58.520 --> 01:12:05.079
apparently have had a side hustle.
Looks like most of it was, Hey,

872
01:12:06.520 --> 01:12:11.760
here's a couple, and here's her
friend, and you know, fred

873
01:12:11.800 --> 01:12:15.640
his standard stuff if you will.
But they're not mass nothing. And while

874
01:12:15.680 --> 01:12:23.000
he does he doesn't mention the University
of Wisconsin Lacrosse, it's very clear it's

875
01:12:23.039 --> 01:12:26.960
one of the professors and the chancellor. And so now the Board of Regions,

876
01:12:27.359 --> 01:12:31.000
the president, Jay Rothman, issued
a statement saying they had learned of

877
01:12:31.039 --> 01:12:38.279
the conduct, called the actions abhorrent, and have parted ways. It looks

878
01:12:38.279 --> 01:12:40.840
like you'll probably get paid. I
mean I feel bad for these educators.

879
01:12:40.880 --> 01:12:44.079
I mean they're making no money,
and yeah, you have no other choice

880
01:12:44.079 --> 01:12:45.520
but to show your boobs or whatever. I mean, it's it's I mean,

881
01:12:45.520 --> 01:12:48.359
how much is he making there?
You think you know what? Well?

882
01:12:48.359 --> 01:12:54.840
Actually, as chancellor, how much? Hold on looking it up because

883
01:12:54.840 --> 01:12:59.640
actually I was just thinking that'll be
public record. Oh wow, oh two

884
01:12:59.720 --> 01:13:01.439
hundred in sixty two thousand. I
mean, you can't live off that.

885
01:13:01.800 --> 01:13:06.920
You can't show your lacrosse is relatively
you gotta do that much cheaper. It's

886
01:13:06.920 --> 01:13:12.159
probably very cheap. So you have
no no option, no option. Two

887
01:13:12.239 --> 01:13:23.039
hundred and sixty two thousand. Let's
see what uh average salary Lacrosse, wiscons.

888
01:13:24.760 --> 01:13:28.600
Yeah, it's it's much more blue
collar. What is the average salary?

889
01:13:29.079 --> 01:13:34.159
Uh forty seven thousand a year is
on average with a worker in Lacrosse,

890
01:13:34.159 --> 01:13:41.239
Wisconsin makes so and he was making
two sixty two and I don't know

891
01:13:41.279 --> 01:13:44.239
what she was making. I love. That's always like the excuse from these

892
01:13:44.239 --> 01:13:45.960
people when they get like, hey, we saw your video. We discovered

893
01:13:46.000 --> 01:13:48.640
it online. It's like, oh, well I'm making it. I'm poverty

894
01:13:49.000 --> 01:13:53.039
right, No, there's no other
option in this universe than for me to

895
01:13:53.079 --> 01:13:56.000
show my boobs or I don't know, maybe you're a whore, you know,

896
01:13:56.199 --> 01:14:00.840
maybe it's that so well that'll be
fair. Uh, this guy is

897
01:14:00.880 --> 01:14:04.159
a very highly placed horror. Okay, well oh he chance? Oh right,

898
01:14:04.199 --> 01:14:09.000
right right right y yeah wife,
Yeah, well he's a whore.

899
01:14:09.399 --> 01:14:13.640
They could only fire him because his
wife had actually already left the university last

900
01:14:13.720 --> 01:14:17.119
year. But uh yeah, so
there you go. Yeah, well,

901
01:14:17.159 --> 01:14:23.560
I mean they're but they're highly educated
horrors. Ross right, because and he

902
01:14:23.560 --> 01:14:28.439
has a PhD. So there you
go. Well let's see here. Yeah,

903
01:14:28.560 --> 01:14:33.800
two hundred and sixty two thousand,
gonza? Could you live off that?

904
01:14:34.000 --> 01:14:36.640
Probably not? Oh wait, I
shouldn't use the word gonzo? Should

905
01:14:36.640 --> 01:14:41.800
I could? I? Oh?
No? Yeah, this is no way.

906
01:14:41.960 --> 01:14:44.319
Yeah, look what happens. What
happens if you make two hundred and

907
01:14:44.359 --> 01:14:47.199
sixty two thousand a year and you
want to throw a drink in a in

908
01:14:47.239 --> 01:14:51.000
a person's face, right, you
can't even afford the fine, you know

909
01:14:51.039 --> 01:14:56.399
what I'm saying, right, because
the five is three thou right, Yeah,

910
01:14:56.439 --> 01:15:00.199
And you really make it like that's
you would be I would understand to

911
01:15:00.239 --> 01:15:02.960
why you would have to. Uh, you know at that point, if

912
01:15:03.000 --> 01:15:05.359
you're the owner of the panthers,
you got to show your boobs. Gotta

913
01:15:05.399 --> 01:15:09.840
do it. Do you think,
what are you? Three hundred thousand?

914
01:15:09.840 --> 01:15:12.000
Do you think? He blinks no. Once again, that's one of the

915
01:15:12.079 --> 01:15:14.319
reasons you become a billionaire, so
you can do stuff like that and not

916
01:15:14.399 --> 01:15:18.520
care well like you know, but
you should. You still should care about

917
01:15:18.520 --> 01:15:21.880
throwing drinks at people, right,
although you want to raise houses. It

918
01:15:21.920 --> 01:15:27.560
depends on the person, right,
Yeah, And if the three three hundred

919
01:15:27.600 --> 01:15:30.760
thousand went to them, like somebody
would go from really really upset on the

920
01:15:30.840 --> 01:15:36.520
sidewalk to probably just ecstatic, you
know what I'm saying, Yeah, you

921
01:15:36.600 --> 01:15:41.600
do that at the hidden camera,
right, if you're a billionaire. I'm

922
01:15:41.640 --> 01:15:43.920
not saying throw drinks at children,
but I mean, if there's somebody that

923
01:15:43.960 --> 01:15:49.960
deserves it well and fair, like
some children, arguably, what and they

924
01:15:50.520 --> 01:15:57.600
take a stand for not throwing drinks
at children. What if the children throw

925
01:15:57.680 --> 01:16:01.920
drinks at you first? I mean, well that changes everything. What if

926
01:16:02.000 --> 01:16:05.600
what if the parent of the child
then gets a three hundred thousand dollars check.

927
01:16:09.359 --> 01:16:12.560
It's just and it it's it's just
a drink. I mean, that'll

928
01:16:12.560 --> 01:16:15.039
buy some video games and a PS
five. I've just pointed that out right.

929
01:16:16.800 --> 01:16:20.199
That's that's gonna be a happy,
happy kid if he actually sees some

930
01:16:20.319 --> 01:16:23.760
of that. So I guess the
moral of the story is, if you're

931
01:16:23.800 --> 01:16:30.359
a chancellor at a at a big
major four year university, probably don't do

932
01:16:30.680 --> 01:16:32.319
side hustled. Although you know what, I shouldn't say that. I bet

933
01:16:32.359 --> 01:16:36.840
if he was the chancellor of the
University of California Santa Barbara probably do this.

934
01:16:39.000 --> 01:16:43.279
They probably put it in the news. Less I was to say,

935
01:16:43.279 --> 01:16:46.640
it's probably part of the gig yep. Yeah, uh well remember that uh

936
01:16:46.840 --> 01:16:51.199
that who was the the crazy professor
up at Berkeley who was like stalking that

937
01:16:51.279 --> 01:16:54.920
dude. She was doing port and
they were all like, uh sh it's

938
01:16:54.960 --> 01:16:59.479
so empowering. And I remember,
like, I'm like, I wonder why

939
01:16:59.520 --> 01:17:04.399
people are in your class. You
think everyone's there purely to learn about whatever.

940
01:17:04.520 --> 01:17:09.840
I can't remember what the hell she
taught was, but anyway, check

941
01:17:09.920 --> 01:17:18.800
this out. Benjamin kip Logan,
who is a long distance he's a runner,

942
01:17:19.000 --> 01:17:27.119
an Olympic runner. Okay, so
when did he last compete? Last

943
01:17:27.119 --> 01:17:30.000
compete in twenty twelve? Still no, yeah, I'm sorry, twenty twelve

944
01:17:30.000 --> 01:17:35.560
in the Olympics. But he continues
to compete and has placed well in the

945
01:17:35.800 --> 01:17:45.079
World Athletics Championship actually pretty recently.
So anyway, dude was stabbed to death.

946
01:17:45.399 --> 01:17:51.960
This is in Kenya. I think
he lives in Uganda, but his

947
01:17:53.039 --> 01:17:56.079
brother lives in Kenya, which is
why he was there, all right,

948
01:17:56.239 --> 01:17:59.560
And so at this point they're trying
to figure out who did it. I

949
01:17:59.560 --> 01:18:04.640
have a question, es and I
don't mean to be insensitive here, but

950
01:18:04.920 --> 01:18:13.920
even but even in Kenya, this
dude's easily probably what top twenty five fastest

951
01:18:13.960 --> 01:18:20.119
people, probably right, if he's
still competing at the in the upper echelon,

952
01:18:23.079 --> 01:18:27.279
and that's probably he's probably I probably
even not even top twenty five,

953
01:18:27.319 --> 01:18:33.000
maybe it's top ten. How do
you get stabbed or at the very least,

954
01:18:33.600 --> 01:18:39.920
how do you not have a really
concise suspect list if you're the police,

955
01:18:40.039 --> 01:18:41.560
right, like at this point,
it has to be like, well,

956
01:18:41.560 --> 01:18:44.800
like Barry Allen or something. Yes, okay, yes, it's the

957
01:18:44.880 --> 01:18:51.359
Flash or the other eight people who
might be faster than him. We do

958
01:18:51.399 --> 01:18:56.640
not know a motive, said the
police commander. But we do know it

959
01:18:56.880 --> 01:19:01.840
was murder and we are working diligent
le to speed up the investigation and book

960
01:19:01.880 --> 01:19:06.880
the killer or killers. So well, I would say this, you probably

961
01:19:06.880 --> 01:19:10.880
if you do figure out who it
is, you're gonna want to sneak up

962
01:19:10.920 --> 01:19:15.359
on them. Okay, don't let
them know you're coming or you know,

963
01:19:15.439 --> 01:19:18.920
good luck on that. So but
uh, yeah, I'm sorry. I

964
01:19:18.960 --> 01:19:23.000
don't know why my brain is so
horrific and works in that way, but

965
01:19:23.079 --> 01:19:25.399
I'm just like, how does he
how do you get I don't understand and

966
01:19:25.439 --> 01:19:32.119
getting shot, but like your fastest
due in the country, like you should.

967
01:19:32.479 --> 01:19:38.479
Probably I need to know more.
I guess I suspect there was an

968
01:19:38.520 --> 01:19:43.000
element of surprise there, all right, eight sixteen Cacoday radio program, and

969
01:19:43.000 --> 01:19:47.319
we got to talk about two things. I'm going to package dal these because

970
01:19:47.359 --> 01:19:56.960
I got two stories. One about
the first ever official law enforcement investigation into

971
01:19:58.640 --> 01:20:04.680
virtual sexual assault. Okay, so
that's that story number one. I'll learn

972
01:20:04.680 --> 01:20:11.760
about that and cyber kidnapping. Do
you guys know what cyber kidnap? I

973
01:20:11.840 --> 01:20:16.439
had no idea, So yes,
we'll get into the online weird and even

974
01:20:16.520 --> 01:20:26.079
criminal will do it. Coming up
next hang on smart talk all day ninety

975
01:20:26.159 --> 01:20:30.960
four or five w pt I in
the Triad and one six one FM Talk

976
01:20:30.079 --> 01:20:34.880
in the Triangle. No. I
had like I had like an hour of

977
01:20:34.920 --> 01:20:39.920
downtime yesterday where I just fell into
that trap I was explaining to Ross although

978
01:20:40.159 --> 01:20:42.319
you knew what it was, you
just didn't know about that name, right

979
01:20:43.520 --> 01:20:45.880
I. I just think it's in
the in the world of trying to make

980
01:20:45.960 --> 01:20:51.359
sense of you know this. I
don't say conspiracy theories necessarily, but like,

981
01:20:51.640 --> 01:20:55.760
you know, stuff you would hear
on art Bells, you know,

982
01:20:55.920 --> 01:21:00.439
show George Nori all that coast to
coast, right, I think that that's

983
01:21:00.560 --> 01:21:04.479
just I don't know if it's a
real lazy collection or theory, but uh,

984
01:21:04.560 --> 01:21:08.920
it's It's probably one of the easiest
things I've ever heard of. It

985
01:21:08.960 --> 01:21:12.199
was what ultra terrestrials. Yeah,
I didn't know about his name, but

986
01:21:12.199 --> 01:21:13.600
once you described it, I'm like, oh, yeah, I know what

987
01:21:13.680 --> 01:21:15.399
that is. All right. So
here's the premise. Take all the stuff,

988
01:21:15.520 --> 01:21:21.159
Take alien stuff, take ghosts,
poulture guys, take demonic possession.

989
01:21:21.960 --> 01:21:26.279
And so if you want to if
you want to believe in this, basically

990
01:21:26.479 --> 01:21:33.960
all of that is just quick little
visions or crossovers from other beans that are

991
01:21:34.000 --> 01:21:40.000
also here on Earth, but are
you know, are so far advanced interdimensionally

992
01:21:40.119 --> 01:21:44.800
that they don't like we're not on
their plane, they're not on ours.

993
01:21:44.840 --> 01:21:48.319
But occasionally there's bleedover and that's what's
people. That's what people see. So

994
01:21:48.800 --> 01:21:55.319
everything is all that. So you
only have to believe one thing that basically

995
01:21:55.359 --> 01:22:00.640
there's like fifth dimension beans that sometimes
don't mask or what. I don't know.

996
01:22:00.680 --> 01:22:05.520
So, but then you don't have
to worry about coming up with explanations

997
01:22:05.520 --> 01:22:10.479
for other stuff. I guess so
I couldn't believe. I hadn't heard the

998
01:22:10.560 --> 01:22:14.760
name of it before then. But
yeah, so there's there's something you want

999
01:22:14.760 --> 01:22:16.960
to kill a little time at work
today, feel free? All right,

1000
01:22:17.640 --> 01:22:29.119
two things. I'm going to tie
these together. I was not familiar with

1001
01:22:29.520 --> 01:22:32.760
the with one of these. One
of these things, it'll be the second

1002
01:22:32.800 --> 01:22:36.720
story. So we're all gonna learn
something, but let me start here.

1003
01:22:36.880 --> 01:22:50.479
Police in the UK have opened an
investigation into a virtual sexual assault virtual rape

1004
01:22:53.199 --> 01:23:00.439
after a child was attacked in a
virtual reality video game Yes Here We Go.

1005
01:23:00.520 --> 01:23:02.960
The girl, under the age of
sixteen, was said to have been

1006
01:23:03.000 --> 01:23:11.800
left distraught after her avatar was and
all of this is in quotes, was

1007
01:23:12.439 --> 01:23:18.479
gang rape by online strangers, while
the headset wearing victim did not suffer any

1008
01:23:18.600 --> 01:23:24.920
injuries as there was no physical attack. For the first time, law enforcement

1009
01:23:25.039 --> 01:23:31.680
has decided to get involved. Let's
see here, now, this was in

1010
01:23:33.000 --> 01:23:36.079
this was in the meta thing,
right, Yeah, it was. I

1011
01:23:36.600 --> 01:23:39.920
mean, what the hell are you
going to do here? Now? Don't

1012
01:23:39.960 --> 01:23:43.800
get me wrong, because they had
a little they had some like video of

1013
01:23:43.840 --> 01:23:48.960
this, and you have a you
got a bunch of scumbags that fully realizing

1014
01:23:49.000 --> 01:23:56.800
that at the very least they're emotionally
attempting to just be awful to this sixteen

1015
01:23:56.880 --> 01:24:04.479
year old, but also unplug it. I guess would be my thing.

1016
01:24:04.640 --> 01:24:08.680
And like I saw people saying that, They're like, oh, you're victim

1017
01:24:08.680 --> 01:24:14.640
blaming. But I look, I
put when I was sixteen, I would

1018
01:24:14.640 --> 01:24:15.600
know enough to get out of there. Well, I don't know, maybe

1019
01:24:15.600 --> 01:24:19.359
I would just run my mouth.
You know. Really the big social aspect

1020
01:24:19.399 --> 01:24:24.960
of video games hadn't really become a
thing when I was sixteen. But but

1021
01:24:25.119 --> 01:24:28.720
yeah, I don't even know how
you go about that with law enforcement,

1022
01:24:28.840 --> 01:24:34.640
and then what constitutes that is it? Now? They would argue that literally

1023
01:24:34.680 --> 01:24:39.479
making some of the statements that these
individuals were making that if they had been

1024
01:24:39.520 --> 01:24:43.439
done in public to the sixteen year
old, could have been problematic. And

1025
01:24:43.479 --> 01:24:45.960
also this is in the UK.
I think sixteen is the age of consent

1026
01:24:46.079 --> 01:24:54.039
in the UK. We just had
a story that mentioned that. So I

1027
01:24:54.079 --> 01:25:00.119
don't know what I just because here's
the thing. I just get very weary

1028
01:25:00.960 --> 01:25:05.840
of expanding law enforcement into more and
more digital nooks and crannies. I understand

1029
01:25:05.880 --> 01:25:11.760
that it's inevitable, right because the
way that people do things that may be

1030
01:25:11.840 --> 01:25:15.840
criminal, and there are definitely cyber
crimes that you can commit, but I

1031
01:25:15.880 --> 01:25:21.560
feel like this one also almost has
to have a physical component, because it

1032
01:25:21.640 --> 01:25:27.399
has to have like an it has
to have that element of danger, even

1033
01:25:27.399 --> 01:25:30.000
if it's just people threatening it.
And I don't know that you accomplish that,

1034
01:25:30.319 --> 01:25:32.920
especially when you hear the stuff that
people will say to each other in

1035
01:25:33.920 --> 01:25:41.960
other video games where they can communicate. According to new research, they estimate

1036
01:25:42.000 --> 01:25:46.479
that fifteen percent of kids between the
ages of five and ten have or regularly

1037
01:25:46.640 --> 01:25:50.079
use some sort of virtual headset.
I didn't realize it was that much.

1038
01:25:55.199 --> 01:25:58.560
And I don't even say and I
don't see a law enforcement side, really

1039
01:25:59.159 --> 01:26:03.800
them explain why this one is any
different except me speculating on maybe it's the

1040
01:26:03.920 --> 01:26:08.359
verbal part, but we'll see.
And it's in the UK, so they

1041
01:26:08.439 --> 01:26:11.319
got silly putty for laws when they
want to do stuff, all right,

1042
01:26:11.359 --> 01:26:16.000
So that was number one that I
kind of understand. But then I saw

1043
01:26:16.159 --> 01:26:20.960
this and this is just a weird
story. Here's the headline, missing foreign

1044
01:26:21.000 --> 01:26:30.159
exchange student found safe intent in Utah
in cyber kidnapping. Cyber kidnapping. Do

1045
01:26:30.199 --> 01:26:34.880
you know what that is? You
will, we'll explain it, and we'll

1046
01:26:35.039 --> 01:26:42.439
have to talk about the now ousting, the resignation of the HAVID president and

1047
01:26:42.479 --> 01:26:46.479
why none of it's her fault.
And CNN is oh my goodness, wait

1048
01:26:46.560 --> 01:26:54.039
till you hear the audio coming up. One six one FM Talk ninety four

1049
01:26:54.159 --> 01:26:59.680
five w PTI, two stations driving
the best in talk. This is Casey

1050
01:26:59.720 --> 01:27:08.840
Ode and Carolina's Morning News. Somebody
actually did the map here on what three

1051
01:27:08.880 --> 01:27:15.520
hundred thousand is to the panthers owner. If you were to compare that to

1052
01:27:15.960 --> 01:27:23.119
the average North Carolinian, it would
be the equivalent of a dollar forty four.

1053
01:27:23.600 --> 01:27:27.479
So yeah, yeah, I suppose
if you want to throw a drink

1054
01:27:27.520 --> 01:27:31.079
on somebody. That's almost a bargain
man, dollar ross. Would you pay

1055
01:27:31.079 --> 01:27:34.520
a dollar forty four to hit somebody
with a drink? I did, not

1056
01:27:34.600 --> 01:27:40.239
a kid Obviously we already discussed that. Of course you would dollar forty four

1057
01:27:40.319 --> 01:27:44.319
man, even especially right now when
everything's so damn expensive, that would you

1058
01:27:44.319 --> 01:27:46.079
would just do it because it felt
like a deal. All right, let

1059
01:27:46.119 --> 01:27:51.319
me get back to this, because
I didn't know what this was, and

1060
01:27:51.319 --> 01:27:57.279
it's kind it's crazy once you have
it explained to you. Cyber kidnapping.

1061
01:27:58.520 --> 01:28:02.319
So and here's the scenario. The
way down seventeen year old I believe he's

1062
01:28:02.359 --> 01:28:11.279
a Chinese foreign exchange student. Yes, Go's missing. Is the Utah can't

1063
01:28:11.319 --> 01:28:20.159
find him? Kidnappers had actually contacted
his family looks like his family in China,

1064
01:28:21.479 --> 01:28:25.680
saying that they had him and they
wanted to ransom. And I think

1065
01:28:25.720 --> 01:28:30.399
the family actually threw my mouse on
the ground. I think the family actually

1066
01:28:30.399 --> 01:28:41.359
did pay them something. But eventually
he's found. The teens family was not

1067
01:28:41.479 --> 01:28:44.960
aware he was missing. There was
no signs he was forcefully taken. It

1068
01:28:45.000 --> 01:28:48.199
was only when they were presented with
the hey, he's missing and nobody can

1069
01:28:48.239 --> 01:28:53.720
get in touch with him, and
I believe. The family that he stays

1070
01:28:53.800 --> 01:28:56.520
with said that they had heard him
moving around the house earlier, but they

1071
01:28:56.520 --> 01:29:04.760
didn't know where he was. Eventually, here's how the scam goes. First,

1072
01:29:04.840 --> 01:29:11.439
the student is contacted and he is
told by cyber kidnappers that he needs

1073
01:29:11.479 --> 01:29:17.880
to leave wherever he is go somewhere
for some period of time, and if

1074
01:29:17.880 --> 01:29:23.199
he doesn't, his family members will
be harmed. So he's being told that

1075
01:29:23.279 --> 01:29:29.920
they have the family members, the
family members after they get this kid,

1076
01:29:30.000 --> 01:29:30.880
and what they did, what he
did is he went about a bunch of

1077
01:29:30.920 --> 01:29:38.000
camping gear and went to some camp
near Provo, Utah and stayed there for

1078
01:29:38.239 --> 01:29:44.760
a day and a half. Then
they contact the family and tell them,

1079
01:29:44.800 --> 01:29:46.600
hey, we got them, and
then they're unable to find them. And

1080
01:29:46.880 --> 01:29:53.640
that's it. So nobody's ever physically
kidnapped. Two people are just independently threatened

1081
01:29:54.359 --> 01:30:01.640
and because they it creates this lack
of communication. There you go, excuse

1082
01:30:01.680 --> 01:30:04.920
me, throwing mouse on the ground, not drinking my water? What are

1083
01:30:04.960 --> 01:30:13.720
we doing? So yeah, that's
cyber kidnapping. I don't know man doing

1084
01:30:13.760 --> 01:30:20.359
that. Like now we have virtual
assaults that people are investigating. It is

1085
01:30:21.279 --> 01:30:26.640
a crazy, crazy new world out
there by the way, the seventeen year

1086
01:30:26.640 --> 01:30:33.600
old cold scared, but was located
inside a tent, like I said,

1087
01:30:33.600 --> 01:30:40.640
at a campsite near Provo, not
far from his house, but enough that

1088
01:30:40.680 --> 01:30:45.359
they were able to get you.
Well, Boston Paul is like, well,

1089
01:30:45.359 --> 01:30:47.800
that's not even a full beer.
Yes, I'm aware of Boston Paul,

1090
01:30:47.840 --> 01:30:51.680
that the beers are very expensive there
so, and that you wouldn't throw

1091
01:30:51.760 --> 01:30:56.680
beer because obviously that would be a
big waste. Oh, speaking of waste,

1092
01:30:56.760 --> 01:31:01.119
I'm glad we can get rid of
this. And uh, look,

1093
01:31:01.319 --> 01:31:06.479
don't shoot the messenger. I'm just
here to bring you the news. And

1094
01:31:08.520 --> 01:31:12.680
the news is we got to cancel
something. All right, you're ready,

1095
01:31:13.359 --> 01:31:15.960
And uh, by the way,
Uh, I'm gonna I'm gonna stereotype here,

1096
01:31:16.039 --> 01:31:18.319
little ladies. I think this is
gonna hit you a little harder,

1097
01:31:20.000 --> 01:31:30.000
but I don't I don't make the
rules. Scented candles, Yes, scented

1098
01:31:30.039 --> 01:31:36.600
candles now gots to go. No, not for racism or sexism or any

1099
01:31:36.600 --> 01:31:40.760
of the other isms, but rather, according to a new study, they

1100
01:31:41.079 --> 01:31:53.520
they're really bad for you. Let's
see here. Uh there's a excuse me,

1101
01:31:53.600 --> 01:31:58.239
I'm sitting here coughing up a long
give me a second, probably from

1102
01:31:58.239 --> 01:32:02.520
a scented candle I encountered over the
holidays. According to research from the Animals

1103
01:32:02.600 --> 01:32:09.079
of Medicine and Surgery, it has
now shown that many of the more popular

1104
01:32:09.119 --> 01:32:15.399
brands have scented candles, So Sugar
and Spice, Winter Wonderland, even Vanilla

1105
01:32:16.760 --> 01:32:21.760
show an increase in vertigo, headaches, respiratory issues, watery eyes, sneezing,

1106
01:32:21.880 --> 01:32:31.720
and stuff. He knows and most
likely should carry additional warnings for these

1107
01:32:31.760 --> 01:32:39.479
potential adverse effects. I I feel
like you probably shouldn't take any chances here.

1108
01:32:39.880 --> 01:32:42.560
Ross do you guys do the senate
candle thing around the pad? Get

1109
01:32:42.560 --> 01:32:48.399
some senate candle only to go on
into the paltrow once you why did you?

1110
01:32:48.680 --> 01:32:55.039
Oh? Do you think she has
a holiday version of that? Right?

1111
01:32:55.119 --> 01:32:59.840
Because, like for those of you
who don't know, she sells season

1112
01:33:00.199 --> 01:33:05.279
entrepreneur. Damn it, How do
I explain this? She sells a line

1113
01:33:05.319 --> 01:33:16.520
of senate candles, but it ain't
cinnamon or pumpkin spice or nutmeg or it.

1114
01:33:16.640 --> 01:33:24.640
The scent is her and a specific
part of her. Is this making

1115
01:33:24.720 --> 01:33:29.199
sense? Yeah? Yeah, that's
a scentate candle she sells. I'm just

1116
01:33:29.279 --> 01:33:32.960
wondering if like in the fourth quarter, right, they're like the Gwyneth holiday

1117
01:33:33.039 --> 01:33:38.640
candle, Right, so it's still
that, but like a little nutmeg or

1118
01:33:38.680 --> 01:33:41.920
something mixed in there. I don't, I don't know. I didn't reasearch.

1119
01:33:42.119 --> 01:33:44.560
Just a bit of gingerbread, you
know what I mean, right on

1120
01:33:44.680 --> 01:33:48.720
top of the normal. Right,
You're like, oh, is Gwyneth cooking

1121
01:33:49.079 --> 01:33:53.439
in the kitchen right now? Pantsless? What's going on? Actually, back

1122
01:33:53.479 --> 01:33:56.720
in the day, we used to
have tons of like those those candles around

1123
01:33:56.760 --> 01:33:59.680
the house, not Gwyenna's like regular
ones you'd get like Yankee candle and stuff.

1124
01:33:59.760 --> 01:34:01.079
Yeah, I don't think we have
any. I think we have like

1125
01:34:01.119 --> 01:34:03.520
one in the mantle. It's like
a joke one. It's it's uh,

1126
01:34:04.159 --> 01:34:10.600
it's a unicorn vomit. What what
Yeah, it's just a joke candles,

1127
01:34:10.720 --> 01:34:13.600
that's it's unicorn vomb I don't we've
never we've never lit it. I don't

1128
01:34:13.640 --> 01:34:15.199
know. Hold on, hold on? Could I offer a theory here?

1129
01:34:15.279 --> 01:34:18.520
Sure? Yeah, what if that
you were one of the few people to

1130
01:34:18.560 --> 01:34:24.279
buy that, but they made a
bunch of them and uh, Gwenn,

1131
01:34:24.319 --> 01:34:28.399
it's like, you know what,
what if I rebrand those and then she

1132
01:34:28.520 --> 01:34:30.399
got us for a deal, right, and then she sells them because she

1133
01:34:30.439 --> 01:34:33.439
sells them for like what fifty bucks
or something? It breaks out on her

1134
01:34:33.439 --> 01:34:36.880
goop website yet, STUPI yeah,
yeah, yeah, So what if it's

1135
01:34:36.920 --> 01:34:41.079
just that with a new label on
it, because that happens sometimes. How

1136
01:34:41.119 --> 01:34:48.000
would you be able to know?
I means unicorn vomit and her nether regions

1137
01:34:48.039 --> 01:34:53.039
don't smell the same. I mean, I I I guess, but maybe

1138
01:34:53.039 --> 01:34:56.439
you'd have to ask the dude from
Coldplay. Other than that, I I

1139
01:34:56.439 --> 01:35:00.199
don't know how you'd get there.
But yeah, Scented candles, according to

1140
01:35:00.239 --> 01:35:06.520
researchers, significant non disclosed, most
short term and potentially long term health risks

1141
01:35:08.159 --> 01:35:13.600
depending on the brand and airflow within
an area. Although you light a candle,

1142
01:35:13.680 --> 01:35:17.239
generally it's you're lighting a candle in
the winter, especially these winter candles,

1143
01:35:17.560 --> 01:35:21.439
I have a lot of air flow
through there. So there you go.

1144
01:35:21.680 --> 01:35:27.279
Better safe than sorry. No scented
candles, So there you go.

1145
01:35:27.399 --> 01:35:31.119
Race Stagic from the Weather Channel sended
candles, man could be bad for you.

1146
01:35:31.119 --> 01:35:35.720
Probably don't need those around the house. They're gonna be a problem for

1147
01:35:35.760 --> 01:35:41.119
the for the Stagic family. You
guys, do the Senate candles. Dude.

1148
01:35:41.199 --> 01:35:45.279
What Yeah, yeah, well they're
bad for you. So well,

1149
01:35:45.399 --> 01:35:48.560
I've been rid of those. Yeah. I've been trying to preach that message

1150
01:35:48.600 --> 01:35:51.720
for quite some time now. Yeah, but now you got science. So

1151
01:35:53.319 --> 01:35:57.239
well, I thought I had signs
when you know where the area where you

1152
01:35:57.239 --> 01:36:00.159
burn the candles in you could see
all the black kind of on the wall,

1153
01:36:00.000 --> 01:36:02.479
are on the ceiling or in the
bathroom, it gets on the mirror.

1154
01:36:02.479 --> 01:36:06.600
Two and it's like, listen,
this has to be bad for us.

1155
01:36:06.760 --> 01:36:13.920
But I'm no, I'm confused here. No, No, I go

1156
01:36:14.000 --> 01:36:15.640
with the science, right, yeah, all right, well do you got

1157
01:36:15.720 --> 01:36:18.399
more? Let me know how that
goes. Let's get some weather science.

1158
01:36:18.439 --> 01:36:23.199
What's happening. Yeah, we're going
to science the stuff out of this,

1159
01:36:23.359 --> 01:36:28.039
especially this upcoming weekend. First major
storm for some of the big cities in

1160
01:36:28.079 --> 01:36:31.159
the Northeast in a couple of years. An interesting fact take this to the

1161
01:36:31.199 --> 01:36:35.319
water cool with you. New York
City hasn't had an inch of snowfall in

1162
01:36:35.359 --> 01:36:40.840
Central Park in just about two years. Haven't had over four inches of snow

1163
01:36:40.960 --> 01:36:45.319
since the twenty ninth of January of
night of twenty twenty two, So it's

1164
01:36:45.359 --> 01:36:48.119
been over two years since they've had
a significant plowable snow, and that may

1165
01:36:48.159 --> 01:36:51.960
happen this weekend. We may get
a touch of wintery presepe here, but

1166
01:36:53.000 --> 01:36:56.239
I think it's going to be confined
into the mountains. We will see clouds

1167
01:36:56.279 --> 01:36:59.800
increase today, low fifties, a
little rain tonight early, and then mid

1168
01:36:59.840 --> 01:37:02.439
to upper thirties overnight, so chiley
start the Thursday, but a couple of

1169
01:37:02.479 --> 01:37:08.119
good looking days Thursday and Friday,
upper forties, maybe fifty for some,

1170
01:37:08.319 --> 01:37:11.279
especially in the Triangle. And then
as we get to Friday night and Saturday,

1171
01:37:11.279 --> 01:37:14.920
that's really the key where temperatures will
be close to or just below freezing.

1172
01:37:14.960 --> 01:37:18.680
On the onset of precipitation toward early
Saturday morning southwest to northeast, so

1173
01:37:18.760 --> 01:37:23.199
western North Carolina and the mountains,
it probably starts as snow and then's a

1174
01:37:23.199 --> 01:37:28.119
freezing rain for the Triad, a
little freezing rain or snow to start the

1175
01:37:28.159 --> 01:37:30.840
same thing for the Triangle very early
Saturday, but most of us change it

1176
01:37:30.960 --> 01:37:36.359
rain. I don't anticipate problems from
the Triad, East Mountains, places like

1177
01:37:36.439 --> 01:37:43.359
Ashville and even into Boon, especially
accumulating snow and ice, especially higher elevations

1178
01:37:43.479 --> 01:37:45.399
where there could be a couple of
inches of snow. I mentioned it last

1179
01:37:45.439 --> 01:37:48.800
hour. If you are traveling to
see the Tar Heels in Clemson, just

1180
01:37:48.800 --> 01:37:51.840
take it easy Saturday morning. If
you're traveling, it's a Nune tip off.

1181
01:37:53.319 --> 01:37:56.279
May want a little bit of extra
time to make it down eighty five.

1182
01:37:56.319 --> 01:37:59.680
I don't think icy on eighty five, but some of those arterial routes

1183
01:37:59.680 --> 01:38:01.279
as you go wes could get a
little bit tricky, so plan on some

1184
01:38:01.359 --> 01:38:03.960
so travel. Yeah, all right, by the way, you're happy with

1185
01:38:04.039 --> 01:38:10.960
the final college final coming up?
Or I am not dissatisfied. I'm on

1186
01:38:11.000 --> 01:38:13.840
the I'm on the side of where
Florida State should not have been there.

1187
01:38:14.439 --> 01:38:17.399
I don't know if Alabama was the
right choice, but that was a good

1188
01:38:17.439 --> 01:38:20.079
game, and so was the other
game. I thought, two real good

1189
01:38:20.079 --> 01:38:25.720
games. The Georgia Florida State game
was basically where college football is going if

1190
01:38:25.760 --> 01:38:29.840
they don't get rid of this portal
and declaring all before bull season. I

1191
01:38:29.840 --> 01:38:32.039
don't like any of that. Well, we'll see. That'll be one day,

1192
01:38:32.079 --> 01:38:33.960
but for now, I have a
good rest of your day, sir.

1193
01:38:34.079 --> 01:38:38.199
Sounds good, all right, and
we'll come back with Jeff Bellinger.

1194
01:38:38.239 --> 01:38:46.000
Hang on your day, smarter,
ONEm Talk and News Talk PTI more with

1195
01:38:46.239 --> 01:38:51.720
Casey. Starts now all right,
Good morning, eight fifty three Bloomberg up

1196
01:38:51.760 --> 01:38:56.199
Fate now with Jeff Bellinger. Jeff, what's going on? O? Good

1197
01:38:56.199 --> 01:39:00.960
morning, Casey. Stock market closed
mostly lower yesterday. The Blue chips did

1198
01:39:00.039 --> 01:39:04.319
manage a small gain, but right
now the futures are lower across the board.

1199
01:39:04.399 --> 01:39:09.439
Dow futures are down one hundred and
eighteen points. Apple shares were down

1200
01:39:09.439 --> 01:39:12.920
more than three and a half percent
yesterday, the biggest drop for the iPhone

1201
01:39:12.920 --> 01:39:17.640
maker since September. Barkley's analysts downgraded
to Apple before the start of trading yesterday,

1202
01:39:17.880 --> 01:39:23.439
saying demand for the iPhone fifteen appears
to be soft and they don't expect

1203
01:39:23.439 --> 01:39:28.640
new features or upgrades to make this
year's iPhone sixteen more compelling. In uptick

1204
01:39:28.680 --> 01:39:32.000
and mortgage interest rates and the Christmas
holiday wait on home loan demand. Last

1205
01:39:32.000 --> 01:39:36.880
week, mortgage bankers report applications to
finance a home purchase fell more than seven

1206
01:39:36.920 --> 01:39:42.680
and a half percent, the biggest
weekly declined since April. Total applications,

1207
01:39:42.680 --> 01:39:48.119
which include refi requests, went down
nearly eleven percent. Investors and economists expect

1208
01:39:48.119 --> 01:39:53.399
the Federal Reserve to start lowering interest
rates this year. The big questions are

1209
01:39:53.439 --> 01:39:57.920
when the rate cuts will begin and
how much will rates be reduced. Minutes

1210
01:39:57.920 --> 01:40:00.520
from the Fed's December meeting come out
the this afternoon, and they could offer

1211
01:40:00.560 --> 01:40:05.000
some clarity. A Bank Rate survey
found that economists are split on whether rate

1212
01:40:05.079 --> 01:40:09.760
cuts will start in the first or
the second half of the year. A

1213
01:40:09.760 --> 01:40:15.119
lot of streaming service subscribers are pushing
back against price increases canceling their subscriptions.

1214
01:40:15.359 --> 01:40:19.640
The Data analytics Company and Tenor reports
about a quarter of subscribers to major streaming

1215
01:40:19.720 --> 01:40:24.640
services have canceled at least three of
them over the last two years. Some

1216
01:40:24.840 --> 01:40:29.239
services may be willing to make concessions. A Florida resident told The Wall Street

1217
01:40:29.319 --> 01:40:33.000
Journal she was about to cancel Hulu
before it offered her six months of its

1218
01:40:33.039 --> 01:40:36.800
ad supported service for two ninety nine
a month, so she took it and

1219
01:40:36.880 --> 01:40:42.880
the Starbucks customer's Casey will find some
new food choices on the menu this morning.

1220
01:40:43.079 --> 01:40:45.840
The coffee giant has added a chicken, maple, butter and egg sandwich

1221
01:40:46.119 --> 01:40:50.560
and a potato cheddar and chive bait
to its menu. Starbucks also has a

1222
01:40:50.640 --> 01:40:56.479
vanilla being custard Danish on the menu
right now, that is a seasonal offering,

1223
01:40:56.560 --> 01:41:01.720
Casey. And it doesn't even compare
to the Biscuitville meat loaf breakfast sandwich

1224
01:41:01.960 --> 01:41:09.359
down here, man, I meat
the pleasure meat loaf, bacon, egg

1225
01:41:09.840 --> 01:41:15.399
sauce on a Southern biscuit. So
you try it. I yeah, I

1226
01:41:15.960 --> 01:41:19.000
having to have the pleasure. Okay. I don't think we have that chain

1227
01:41:19.039 --> 01:41:23.439
in this area, no, no, no, but I just wanted to

1228
01:41:23.439 --> 01:41:26.119
throw it out there because I did
try one. It was good. So

1229
01:41:26.560 --> 01:41:28.840
thank you, Jeff, appreciate it. Okay, have a good day,

1230
01:41:28.840 --> 01:41:30.319
Casey. Take care there you go, Jeff Pellinger. Although it is a

1231
01:41:30.359 --> 01:41:36.920
commitment, right because you'd probably just
do the bowl version of it, you

1232
01:41:36.920 --> 01:41:41.279
get all this stuff because it's also
a mess to eat all right. By

1233
01:41:41.319 --> 01:41:45.520
the way, do you guys see
did you see the video of Ramswami in

1234
01:41:45.760 --> 01:41:50.560
Iowa? Right? You know,
which is standard fair right? Running around?

1235
01:41:50.680 --> 01:41:56.720
There's always these moments in Iowa like
the remember the lady who just wanted

1236
01:41:56.840 --> 01:42:02.920
ranch dressing, the guy sitting at
the diner ignoring Baraco or the Barack Obama

1237
01:42:03.039 --> 01:42:06.439
Joe Biden. Right, he's just
sitting there and he probably was going to

1238
01:42:06.520 --> 01:42:12.319
ignore anyone, and then that turned
into a thing. So the veck sitting

1239
01:42:12.359 --> 01:42:15.520
there and he's talking. He's not
even talking to this dude. He's talking.

1240
01:42:15.600 --> 01:42:21.239
Somebody's complimenting his wife. And then
there's this this older gentleman and he's

1241
01:42:21.239 --> 01:42:26.199
in his you know, denim overalls, and he's there and he decides he's

1242
01:42:26.239 --> 01:42:30.119
going to jump in, and well, here's how that went. She'll be

1243
01:42:30.159 --> 01:42:36.039
set a good example for children in
this country. That's right. You've seen

1244
01:42:36.079 --> 01:42:40.920
her. Yeah, thank you,
thank you. She doesn't she doesn't make

1245
01:42:40.960 --> 01:42:45.600
a big production out of it.
Have axe handles wine either, No,

1246
01:42:45.079 --> 01:42:51.159
she does her She does her job
exactly. Thank you. Which, by

1247
01:42:51.199 --> 01:42:58.680
the way, is six axe handles
wide. I've just tried to I've tried

1248
01:42:58.720 --> 01:43:01.319
to visualize it. Actually, I
was saying the same exact thing. Is

1249
01:43:01.319 --> 01:43:04.760
that is that? Like wait,
is that super wide? I don't know.

1250
01:43:04.800 --> 01:43:09.279
I feel like that's like maybe E
feel like like like thors like storm

1251
01:43:09.319 --> 01:43:12.359
breaker, like the big gass axe
has like whatever at the end. But

1252
01:43:12.520 --> 01:43:15.279
is the handle that long? I
mean, it's not length, it's width,

1253
01:43:15.399 --> 01:43:19.199
right, he said, is wide
as six right axe handles? Like?

1254
01:43:19.319 --> 01:43:23.359
I don't know. I think I'm
just trying to like any every action

1255
01:43:23.399 --> 01:43:29.319
handle like I own a couple like
the handle is you know, it's not

1256
01:43:29.359 --> 01:43:31.239
even it's not even the width of
a remote, you know what I'm saying.

1257
01:43:32.439 --> 01:43:36.000
So like I feel like six of
those would be holy with. So

1258
01:43:36.079 --> 01:43:41.279
I don't know, but uh,
you know, thank you, thank you

1259
01:43:41.319 --> 01:43:46.119
to that guy for at least bringing
up this very important discussion. So maybe

1260
01:43:46.159 --> 01:43:50.399
it's just maybe it's because I've never
heard the saying, so maybe there's a

1261
01:43:50.399 --> 01:43:58.560
different measurement unit and that would be
uh, very very wide. But also

1262
01:43:59.039 --> 01:44:01.560
yeah, obviously the way he answered, he was sticking with Mornber because I

1263
01:44:01.560 --> 01:44:09.159
think she's a Yale a Yale PhD
for whatever that's worth. But there you

1264
01:44:09.239 --> 01:44:13.199
go, just you know, the
locker room talking, except it's in the

1265
01:44:13.239 --> 01:44:16.159
line at the coffee shop or wherever
they are. All right, there you

1266
01:44:16.199 --> 01:44:20.720
go. Another one in the books. Tomorrow, Lieutenant Governor, don't forget

1267
01:44:20.760 --> 01:44:25.119
eighth five. Stephen Kennell joined us
too. We got to talk about Star

1268
01:44:25.159 --> 01:44:30.439
Wars and their new direction. We'll
get into that with the bounding into comics.

1269
01:44:30.439 --> 01:44:30.560
Guy all Tomorrow's
