WEBVTT

1
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:38.320
Remember, uh, can we push
the start off for like, I don't

2
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:47.359
know, like fifteen minutes. I
hate Mondays. We look at that Pater

3
00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:50.640
didn't go down the rain pipe.
All right, Good morning six o eight,

4
00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:59.039
a c O day radio program.
What a bunch of insanity going on

5
00:00:59.119 --> 00:01:03.120
today? It's gonna be I I
say it's a Monday. But admittedly,

6
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:06.760
when I was putting the show prep
together yesterday and look at some of the

7
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:10.120
stuff we're gonna get into, I'm
like, I kind of like the stack

8
00:01:10.200 --> 00:01:15.400
today. It feels a little Thursday
ish. I don't know why Thursday gets

9
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:23.319
a good stack sometimes. So we'll
get into that. Ross. Could you

10
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:27.079
give me a favor. I just
realized this. Would you please go into

11
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:33.879
the music directory and I'm not gonna
tell people why and see if we have

12
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:42.439
the queen greatest hit Fat Bottomed Girls, And if so, please apply that

13
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:46.040
to my button barrow. Will you
all right? Ross, gonna get into

14
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:53.519
that. That's something I just saw. You're thinking that song right now,

15
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:57.680
it's in your head. You haven't
even heard it yet. Well, if

16
00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.439
it's bouncing around in your head,
I just want you to know you're horrible

17
00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:04.040
person. So there's a little a
little snippet of why we might be getting

18
00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:10.319
into that. Oh it's gonna be
a day. Also, you know why.

19
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:16.639
One of the things that I find
really fun is do you remember how

20
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:30.080
gleeful and fun it was around these
parts when Shia Lebuff the actor the Transformer

21
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:37.639
dude slash very early on he will
Not Divide Us Trump dude decided that because

22
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:42.479
people kept messing with his he will
not Divide US flag on his little video

23
00:02:42.680 --> 00:02:46.680
artwork in New York, he was
going to move it to BFE America somewhere,

24
00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:50.960
So we put it in a field
on an up and had an upward

25
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:57.159
facing camera. When you just tell
us in a field somewhere, could be

26
00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:00.120
anywhere, could be anywhere in the
world, actually, although I think he

27
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:05.800
indicated it was in the US,
and it just kind of shot up.

28
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:09.080
You could see some some plants around
there, a little bit of a tree,

29
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:15.159
but then you could just see the
flag and then the sky and he's

30
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:21.080
like, ha ha, now this
will it will wave proudly on the internet

31
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:25.719
forevers, right, And what happened? The internet happened. Yeah, a

32
00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:30.319
lot of people with a lot of
time on their hands, and I don't

33
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:38.000
know exactly how long it took them, but they to determine where that flag

34
00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:46.439
was. A group of four chan
or rehdators or whoever it was. They

35
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:53.759
matched the sky with star charts,
then contrails and plane you know planes,

36
00:03:53.800 --> 00:04:01.199
and then the contrails that they leave. They mapped the flight pass across America

37
00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:05.919
to find because they got it narrowed
down. Then they got it more narrowed

38
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:10.479
down with the flight pass and the
time the planes crossed, they're, oh,

39
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:15.520
yeah, this craziness. And then
anyone in the group that was in

40
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:23.560
the area then drove around this you
know few square miles on roads where fields

41
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:27.439
would be, you know, rural
roads, honking their horn because Shiah had

42
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:32.160
left the audio up. And then
when they heard the horn, others who

43
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:35.120
were then watching the stream were like, hey, we hear you, bro.

44
00:04:35.879 --> 00:04:40.879
And then they were able to visually
locate it and it was somewhere I

45
00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:45.000
think it was in Tennessee or something, Jessie or Kentucky or some rural park,

46
00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:49.199
and they went and they captured the
flag because you you essentially created capture

47
00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:56.720
the flag that was the Internet being
the Internet. And then if I remember

48
00:04:56.720 --> 00:05:01.040
correctly, they then moved the Internet
the flag over to the UK and put

49
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:08.639
it on top of a building that
had like a bunch of communist journalists newspaper

50
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:15.480
thing in there, and then people
zip lined from another building. Now,

51
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:19.959
obviously they didn't need the zip line
because obviously they would have to have access

52
00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:24.319
to complete the zip line, but
they wanted to make it as dramatic as

53
00:05:24.399 --> 00:05:33.600
possible, and they went and they
did it there. I really enjoyed all

54
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:38.920
of that, and I didn't have
to lift. That was entertainment for days

55
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:49.360
watching that crap playout. Because the
Internet, while they get a lot wrong,

56
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:53.920
especially when it comes to uncovering stuff
looking at you, Boston bombing,

57
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:04.519
they're also somewhat under feed it on
stuff. If they want to find somebody,

58
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:10.040
they'll find somebody. And unfortunately that's
somebody, and we're gonna get into

59
00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:12.360
the story a little later. I
just want to tease this big time.

60
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:20.519
That story was apparently a dude who
couldn't just ride around on his bike and

61
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:28.959
mind his business. He had to
go screw with people's property. And so

62
00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:33.600
I was watching the story play out
yesterday and I was wildly amused, especially

63
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:40.480
because it's going to include something that
has happened in a couple of stories that

64
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:45.480
we've talked about on this show,
and a little reminder for you about how

65
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:49.399
much of your life is out there
on the internet. So we'll get into

66
00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:55.600
that here on our lovely, lovely
Monday. All right, well, let

67
00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:58.360
me do this. I'll give you
a bigger rundown. We'll get some stuff

68
00:06:58.360 --> 00:07:02.000
and calls and audio, and I
will do it because you know, we're

69
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:14.439
kind of have to. Six fourteen
hang on this one oh six one FM

70
00:07:14.519 --> 00:07:20.959
Talk in the Triangle and here's Talk
five w PTI in the Triad. All

71
00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:27.079
right, good morning, six nineteen
here on the case O Day Radio program,

72
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:32.680
phone number eight eight eight nine three
four seven eight seven four Do do

73
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:38.120
you do? Do? So you
and the fam go catch the Blue Beetle

74
00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:44.720
over the weekend. Ross number one
movie in the country or no video game

75
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:49.079
movie or not video game superhero movie. That's the poverty spider Man iron Man

76
00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:54.040
movie from DC. Yeah, I
see what it looks like. Anyway,

77
00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:59.759
I don't know much about Blue Beetle
except like two things. One, I

78
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:03.680
recognize some of the people involved,
so obviously they put some money behind it,

79
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:11.319
so we got that. And I
found it very interesting in talking about

80
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:15.720
so in the movie apparently, and
I haven't seen the movie. Ross called

81
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:26.319
it poverty, so I'm assuming he
hasn't the movie. The character, and

82
00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:33.559
then of course the the bad guy
right garnered a lot of discussion in the

83
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:39.759
case of Baine. All right,
So Bain, if you remember, is

84
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:48.399
obviously a bad guy, has appeared
in multiple DC outings. Probably the highest

85
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:50.960
profile was at the third. It
was the third of the Nolan Batman's right.

86
00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:54.279
Was Bain the third? Yeah,
because Joker was second, Bain was

87
00:08:54.360 --> 00:09:00.639
third, and then no Joker,
I can't know it, right, yeah,

88
00:09:00.679 --> 00:09:03.080
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ros Alt Google was

89
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:07.960
first and then I'm trying. Okay, So but the carry And it was

90
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.559
funny too because right around that time
was when Mitt Romney was running for president

91
00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:13.799
and they're like, oh, they
created a character because Bain Capital and it's

92
00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:18.559
Mitt Romney, And I'm like that
that's been there a while. He's been

93
00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:24.919
in the comics a while, and
arguably I would say, if I had

94
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:31.399
to pick Superhero movie bad guys,
Baine's one of my favorite, Right do

95
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:35.480
you ever rank him? Ross?
Baine's gotta be one of the kids Dan

96
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:41.639
Baine, because he's pro mask d
Why do you quote him all the time

97
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:45.720
on the show because it's funny.
It is funny because you can say you

98
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:48.679
do anything in the dark. Ross
is running the show in the dark right

99
00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:50.120
now. I don't know if you
know this. Well, that's because the

100
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:56.519
lights don't work. But yeah,
it's correct. It's Monday, Monday,

101
00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:01.080
find out what's broken. The generators
powering down? So oh hey, bad

102
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.960
blide out to see it's gonna blow
all right. So anyway, so Bain

103
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:16.000
obviously has a then in the Blue
Beetle, and the director of Blue Beetle

104
00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:26.279
was given all these interviews talking about
talking about what Bain was, actually what

105
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:28.600
he's based on, what he represents. In fact, here let me play

106
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:35.000
a snippet for you from one of
those interviews explaining the motivation for the bad

107
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:41.639
guy Baine, the character of Bain, the formation of this you villain.

108
00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:45.759
I think, in his own right, he's also a hero in his story.

109
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:50.679
So whether whatever happens at the end
that might have gotten distorted because of

110
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:54.279
what was done to him, I
think that what he represents is a lot

111
00:10:54.360 --> 00:11:01.360
of their own known or forgotten or
brush under the rug history of interventionism in

112
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:05.279
Latin America and the Caribbean by the
US. So basically Baine is a character

113
00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:16.080
that was created to represent the meddling
of the CIA in Central America and Latin

114
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.960
America. He's including Grenada and there, I guess. And what was interesting

115
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:24.480
is like he kept saying that.
But after the first few times, literally

116
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:31.600
the dude who invented Bain, right, the comic book guy, he just

117
00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:41.399
posted on response to one of those, he's like, that's horse right,

118
00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:46.000
that's not true. So this guy
just like, I just decided what this

119
00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:50.240
guy is and what his motivation is. They just decided, asked my character,

120
00:11:50.600 --> 00:11:52.919
and now now he was creative,
and then the guy who created him

121
00:11:52.960 --> 00:12:00.440
is like and then they kept running
articles even though it was known the guy

122
00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:07.000
who literally created Bain was on record
is that's not right. They would just

123
00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:13.240
run these glowing articles about the character
of Bain, the formation of this you

124
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:16.240
know villain. I think in his
own right, he's also a hero in

125
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:22.200
his story. So whether whatever happens
at the end that might have gotten distorted

126
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:26.159
because of what was done to him. I think that what he represents is

127
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:31.440
a lot of their own known or
forgotten or brush under the rug history of

128
00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:37.200
interventionism in Latin America and the Caribbean. Right, Okay, well, agree

129
00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:41.080
that the mask that Bain wears the
symbolic of the mask of sis male heterosexuality.

130
00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:45.559
Right, I mean that's been proven
as it sends it on their if.

131
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:52.799
Yeah, yeah, that's and nobody
cares like the guy he's like,

132
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:58.360
no, I created Bain, that's
not it, not it, not it.

133
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:01.960
And then he just kept running that
garbage. And I think, I

134
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:05.000
think what they're trying to do is
is moonbat overload man from a movie perspective,

135
00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:09.919
because they realize you can snipe them
one by one and special projects.

136
00:13:09.960 --> 00:13:13.879
I think snow White's going to be
a special project. But keep going.

137
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:18.399
And let me tell you, if
there's one comic book universe that doesn't need

138
00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:26.679
any more struggles, it's DC.
Okay, if you're the guy in charge

139
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:30.000
of the DC universe, looking at
what Marvel was able to extol from the

140
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:35.559
first one two, probably two and
a half of the series, I mean,

141
00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:37.600
how much money do they make?
All the money? Right, all

142
00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:39.720
the money they made, all the
money and DC came out there, and

143
00:13:39.759 --> 00:13:43.720
don't get me wrong, they Wonder
Woman did well. I thought, though

144
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:46.559
I thought Wonder Woman was a good
movie. I have a problem with the

145
00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:50.960
DC movies and maybe it's just my
eyes, but I swear man, when

146
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:56.679
you combine like the when you compare
the visual effects and the CGI of Marvel

147
00:13:56.840 --> 00:14:01.720
versus DC, there's no comparison.
Marvel is clear, it is vibrant,

148
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:07.639
and every single DC movie seems to
have this weird, bluish like orange filter

149
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.440
to it, and it just doesn't
look good. I know the Flash got

150
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:16.919
a lot of grief because it was
exceptionally bad, but all of them,

151
00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:20.960
when you look at even Aquaman,
it's bad. The CGI is just not

152
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:24.200
good. I think if if I
DC admitted that they wanted the CGI to

153
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:26.840
be better, that's why it's gonna
be better in the second one. But

154
00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:30.879
I don't that may have been just
trying to sell ticket. If I'm on

155
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:35.879
DC, you've got to see that
there's a Marvel just looks good, So

156
00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:39.639
it just looks clear. Yeah,
you're you're right. So with that,

157
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:43.679
coupled with the fact that some of
them in real bombs, why as the

158
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:50.519
studio and I find I think it's
very funny too in another movie story we

159
00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:54.840
have later. I think some of
that plays into this why why these studios

160
00:14:54.879 --> 00:15:01.639
love these unknown directors, but why
these studios want to add this to yet

161
00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:09.000
another reason to irritate people, especially
since Baine's a known commodity kind of because

162
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:16.039
most most people are into this genre
probably saw the Nolan Batman Baine running around,

163
00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:22.000
you know, with his run around
with his mask and and kicking Batman,

164
00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:28.080
breaking Batman's back and every spoiler everything
that happened in there, and like,

165
00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:31.600
so they have some they already have
a little bit of backstory, although

166
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:39.279
I guess you haven't seen it.
It's not as clear and concise a backstories

167
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:43.519
you think it is. You'll you'll
figure that out. But but you have

168
00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:48.360
this But why why do any why
let this dude sit down and do any

169
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:52.000
of this? And then when the
guy who calls it out instead of just

170
00:15:52.080 --> 00:15:54.200
going quietly and being like, all
right, I'm not going to bring that

171
00:15:54.240 --> 00:16:00.360
up in interviews, you keep running
that garbage. But they do, and

172
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:06.200
uh, we'll be here to cover
it all. Right. Coming up on

173
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:11.159
the show, we figured out where
the aliens on the Moon are. That's

174
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:15.559
like, that's not the first craft
that that happened too. For whatever reason,

175
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:18.080
it's really hard to go to that
place. It's a part of the

176
00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:21.720
moon, so that's probably where the
basis and it would make sense. So

177
00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:30.120
they could see us first look at
everything in a two D model. So

178
00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:34.360
we'll get to that. An update
on Oliver Anthony. We got Arson bicyclist

179
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:38.120
in sand. It's gonna be a
busy morning, so buckle and get some

180
00:16:38.200 --> 00:16:41.759
coffee, stop hitting the snooze,
do your thing, join us, and

181
00:16:42.039 --> 00:16:51.639
we'll be back after the news.
The show. After the show is on

182
00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:56.320
the iHeart radio app. Search casey
O day for the podcast on the iHeart

183
00:16:56.440 --> 00:16:59.600
radio app. Well, you know
what we did. We can just dive

184
00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:03.120
into there. That's fine. Cross
and I were just talking off the year

185
00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:07.400
about this, but let's get it
because it was quite the buzz. And

186
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:12.119
then, for reasons I do not
understand, Elon Musk decided to go after

187
00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:19.319
James Woods. All right, So
on Friday, Elon Musk said that the

188
00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:26.640
block feature could be greatly limited on
x formerly known as Twitter, stripping the

189
00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:33.000
social media platform of a feature long
scene as a protection against harassment. All

190
00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:37.519
right, So let me just give
you a little housekeeping on this and we'll

191
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:41.440
get into the article. So currently, if you're not on the Twitter,

192
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:45.799
I guess those you on the Twitter, you probably you already know this.

193
00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:53.759
So if somebody is annoying or harassing
or threatening or whatever. You have a

194
00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:56.720
few, you have a couple of
different ways you can deal with it.

195
00:17:57.240 --> 00:18:04.519
One of them and i've this is
what you do for annoying people. One

196
00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:10.559
of the things you can do with
is mute. And if you mute somebody,

197
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:17.640
they don't know that they're muted,
so they'll still they'll see your stuff,

198
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.759
they'll still have whatever they want to
say comment on there, and when

199
00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:26.160
they do it, it posts and
then they go about their day and wonder

200
00:18:26.200 --> 00:18:33.279
why nobody, you know, really
thought they were awesome. Because I think

201
00:18:33.279 --> 00:18:38.240
it has some limiting factor on how
it will appear on the suggested side as

202
00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:41.319
So and so commented that you follow. But if they go and they read

203
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:45.079
under you, they may see it, but you're not going to see it

204
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:52.240
kind of. So that's one thing. So that user doesn't know that you

205
00:18:52.359 --> 00:18:57.680
took action, that they're screaming into
the void. And I think we've talked

206
00:18:57.720 --> 00:19:03.079
about this on the air in some
way that brings me satisfaction. Ross you

207
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:06.000
run the same page, right,
oh yeah, completely, yeah, yeah

208
00:19:06.079 --> 00:19:08.559
yeah. Let them let them still
do their busy work while never getting their

209
00:19:08.599 --> 00:19:15.519
satisfaction. However, and this is
what we were just talking about. I

210
00:19:15.640 --> 00:19:21.079
said, it only kind of doesn't
show it to you as you know,

211
00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:26.039
as you if you read the responses
to a tweet you send out, you'll

212
00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:30.480
see the responses, but then you'll
also see where a response should be a

213
00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:36.519
little thing that says, this was
posted by somebody you muted, and if

214
00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:37.519
you want to see it, then
there's a button you can click right,

215
00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:40.880
And it's sort of like, you
know, don't push that button, sort

216
00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:41.960
of vibe to it where like I
can now I've got to see what it

217
00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:45.599
is and then like what's the point. You don't have to know, but

218
00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:48.240
I'm saying the tendencies and be like, oh, it's wearing a short skirt

219
00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:52.400
button right, Yeah, okay.
I only tend to block people that ruin

220
00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:56.759
the vibe that like that. Yeah, I don't. I don't want to

221
00:19:56.839 --> 00:20:00.599
put them on the level with people
who are harassing doc seen or trying to

222
00:20:00.640 --> 00:20:03.359
commit crimes threatening murder. Comes.
I even like mute people that just ruin

223
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:07.279
the vibe, meaning I see I
see Twitter like me as you on your

224
00:20:07.319 --> 00:20:11.240
Twitter stream the first time. Yes, so I see it as sort of

225
00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:14.240
like the way I see it,
like people like, oh, it's the

226
00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:18.599
public four. It's a town square. I see my page and my posts

227
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:21.880
as like a party I'm having at
my house. And if everybody is in

228
00:20:21.920 --> 00:20:25.519
the comments and having a good time
and joking, great, and then some

229
00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:30.640
d bag comes in and starts to
ruin the vibe completely, isn't reading the

230
00:20:30.680 --> 00:20:33.400
room or doing it on purpose,
Then I'm gonna mute you. And if

231
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:36.400
it is repeatedly, then I'm gonna
block you. That's how you see it,

232
00:20:36.680 --> 00:20:40.319
and the way the way I also
see block is you do have the

233
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:41.680
right to say what you want to
say, but you don't have the right

234
00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:45.559
to have me have to listen to
it. Right, So having that same

235
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:48.839
partying analogy. Right, So we're
having a party in my house, everybody's

236
00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:52.480
having a good time. I kicked
the one person out and he's in.

237
00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:56.519
Now he's on the side of the
street and he's screaming and he's yelling at

238
00:20:56.559 --> 00:21:00.920
my house. I have the right
to close my window and pay you no

239
00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:03.759
mind. That, in my opinion, is how it should be. Right.

240
00:21:04.160 --> 00:21:07.039
You don't have the right to be
like, no, you can't close

241
00:21:07.039 --> 00:21:07.720
your window. You have to listen
to me. No, I don't.

242
00:21:08.680 --> 00:21:14.000
So when is the party? Uh? What what party. What's that now?

243
00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:18.240
You said we're having a party at
your house, did I? Yeah?

244
00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:21.680
Yeah, yeah, I'm a secret. You got a whole freaking dance

245
00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:25.400
room with furries and a disco ball. Yeah. I mean you got the

246
00:21:25.480 --> 00:21:29.880
space Bide sentient invitation. It's coming
in the mail, buddy, yes,

247
00:21:30.079 --> 00:21:33.279
okay, So I just just keep
looking at the mail. Huh why would

248
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:34.880
you send snail mail? People do
evites? Now? Yeah? Have you

249
00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:40.839
seen these? Or or since you
got some weird calligraphy a little invitation it's

250
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:44.079
a stone tablet because he needs so
much to me. Yeah, okay,

251
00:21:44.759 --> 00:21:45.920
keep waiting for it. Yeah,
it's gonna be a very heavy box,

252
00:21:47.519 --> 00:21:51.079
heavy parcel. Those are Glenn Beck
books. We already opened the box.

253
00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:56.799
Remember, all right, I'll wait
from my invitation. Yes, so with

254
00:21:56.920 --> 00:22:02.200
block obviously then but then the person
knows, hey, I've been blocked,

255
00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:08.440
and so Must said, there's so
many layers this, so Must said,

256
00:22:08.680 --> 00:22:12.000
they want to under it. Here's
the reason that I feel, and I

257
00:22:12.039 --> 00:22:18.400
think most people who use Twitter probably
think Elon Must wants this. And that

258
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:22.759
is because when you see ads that
you're scrolling your timeline, they're associated their

259
00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:26.079
ads, but associated with a Twitter
account. Now they've done a couple of

260
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:33.240
things to them. It used to
say promotion at the bottom, and now

261
00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:37.519
it doesn't say that, but next
to where the little three circles are where

262
00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:42.119
you clicked to do to interact with
the tweet, it now says ad ad

263
00:22:42.359 --> 00:22:48.839
ad And in a way that's kind
of interesting because now you've scrolled down and

264
00:22:48.839 --> 00:22:52.119
if you want to go back to
actually block that ad, which people do,

265
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:55.279
I've done that or I've just gotten
sick of the same ad over and

266
00:22:55.359 --> 00:23:03.720
over, or it's obviously pretty scummy
where I've I've literally blocked blocked those stuff,

267
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:10.279
And that's not good news for you
know, for revenue for Twitter,

268
00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:15.079
limiting impressions and if enough people do
it, Like I get why Elon must

269
00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:18.720
doesn't want that, but isn't the
easier solution unless I'm missing the motivation here,

270
00:23:19.960 --> 00:23:25.559
just to not allow people to block
those we just ross and I figured

271
00:23:25.599 --> 00:23:29.160
out last week when we, uh, what do we do? We quote

272
00:23:29.160 --> 00:23:32.440
tweeted or retweeted? We just retweeted
something, right, Dad? No,

273
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:41.680
the the Ukrainian Yes, the Ukrainian
spokesperson who the transwoman American woman who's now

274
00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:47.599
the English communications person for the Ukrainian
military yes, yeah, you quote.

275
00:23:47.640 --> 00:23:49.279
You just retweeted that because we're talking
about it on the air, and then,

276
00:23:49.319 --> 00:23:52.759
for whatever reason, we're not able
to unretweeted. I have never seen

277
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:56.319
that before on Twitter, and I
can't. I if you repost a post

278
00:23:56.359 --> 00:24:00.799
on X right, what happens is
you can undo it if you're like,

279
00:24:00.839 --> 00:24:03.319
oh, that was an accident.
So I was on my show's account,

280
00:24:03.799 --> 00:24:07.759
as I am every every morning,
trying to post stuff on the SHO account.

281
00:24:07.720 --> 00:24:10.720
I was on the wrong account.
So I reposted that tweet or that

282
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:12.559
X whatever it's called on my account, and then I said, what's your

283
00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:15.519
personal I went, whoop, see
I made a mistake. So I went

284
00:24:15.559 --> 00:24:21.160
to unrepost it, and it's impossible. Now I went back to every other

285
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:23.759
post that I retweeted over the weekend. Not an issue. To this date,

286
00:24:23.839 --> 00:24:30.799
I still can't unpost that post.
That's super weird. Yeah, a

287
00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:34.720
little bit, But you could do
that to the advertisers tweets things. You

288
00:24:34.759 --> 00:24:40.000
know what I'm saying. Don't let
people block them. That's the solution here.

289
00:24:40.039 --> 00:24:41.359
There has to be some way for
him to do it. Now,

290
00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:47.559
there's a couple of things. Let
me Devil's advocate this argument because I had

291
00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:51.160
people literally going, hey, you
don't this is how I this is what

292
00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:55.839
people use to stop people who are
harassing them. And in a much more

293
00:24:55.960 --> 00:25:00.960
wild West setting, which Elon Musk
has promised and I think to some extent

294
00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:04.119
delivered. Right, there's a lot
we had a lot. I'm seeing a

295
00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:07.000
lot more of the accounts that I
actually follow, which was this weird thing

296
00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:11.000
with Twitter where I follow all these
accounts and then never show up in my

297
00:25:11.079 --> 00:25:14.839
news. For you, now you
can just see the stuff you followed,

298
00:25:14.839 --> 00:25:18.720
but also you get a nice smattering. There's accounts that we followed for years

299
00:25:18.759 --> 00:25:22.000
where I swear I've never seen any
of their tweets in my timeline until Muss

300
00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:26.119
took over, and now I am
seeing them. And I to the point

301
00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:29.359
where I would see something that somebody
else would send me, I would go

302
00:25:29.400 --> 00:25:32.759
to their account because I'm like,
maybe we got unfollowed or something and I

303
00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:38.079
didn't. I was just never getting
served their product, and so I like

304
00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:45.519
that. But if you're going to
have the more Community Square or the Ross

305
00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:49.079
ross Fest, we're calling that ross
Fest the party. I'm waiting for my

306
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:52.240
invitation for her. No, that's
trademark. That's gonna be the olive garden.

307
00:25:52.240 --> 00:25:56.839
See you can't call it that.
Oh okay, well I'll wait for

308
00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:03.319
the invitation and well whatever, Ross
is a big party analogy if you use

309
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:11.200
that, yes, it's it's understandable
why you'd want to have that, but

310
00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:15.359
it would. This is why I'm
gonna use the town square instead of your

311
00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:17.960
party, because your party is by
invitation, which I'm waiting for. I'm

312
00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:22.440
sure it's gonna show. You know, the town square. If you're truly

313
00:26:22.559 --> 00:26:26.839
making it a place where everyone can
be heard, you do want to equip

314
00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:30.720
people with those tools, because yes, people do go on there and they

315
00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:34.960
do docs, and they do harass, and they do threaten. Right,

316
00:26:36.240 --> 00:26:42.039
ask ask a female conservative pundent on
Twitter how many rape threats that they get

317
00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:48.119
on the regular? Now? How
many of those are series? I don't

318
00:26:48.160 --> 00:26:52.680
know most of her people for shock
value, But why should you have to

319
00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:56.200
put up with that? And if
you mute them, yeah, they're screaming

320
00:26:56.240 --> 00:26:59.440
into the void. See, the
thing is if you block them. All

321
00:26:59.480 --> 00:27:03.359
right, So let's say that I
wanted to harass somebody wanted to harass me,

322
00:27:03.599 --> 00:27:10.079
Okay, right, Hypothetically they wanted
to harass me, and they either

323
00:27:10.240 --> 00:27:12.400
one did it from an account that
they now know I blocked, right,

324
00:27:12.759 --> 00:27:17.359
because I do this because we had
the show account blocked, not for harassment,

325
00:27:17.440 --> 00:27:22.039
but for like some moonbat in North
Carolina. One of these activists will

326
00:27:22.039 --> 00:27:26.559
post something and I'll ask a question
like politely, and then I'll get blocked.

327
00:27:26.759 --> 00:27:27.759
But if I want to go see
how the thread worked out, I

328
00:27:27.799 --> 00:27:32.119
just flip over to my personal account
and go. Look. So if you

329
00:27:32.200 --> 00:27:37.680
block somebody, they know that you
block them, so you know, if

330
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:41.559
they wanted to then I don't know, create another account. It come like

331
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:44.640
it would give them the most matter
to me, Like if if they want

332
00:27:44.680 --> 00:27:47.200
to do a burner account or a
second account and look fine, but once

333
00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:49.200
they start acting a fool again,
I'm gonna block that one. And you

334
00:27:49.240 --> 00:27:52.240
get some people that are like super
excited when people block them. It's weird.

335
00:27:53.119 --> 00:27:56.680
Yeah yeah, right the log who'll
block me? I'm like, I

336
00:27:56.720 --> 00:28:02.000
don't know if this like yeah a
line of forward is this? Uh?

337
00:28:02.160 --> 00:28:08.279
Some moonbat Twitter account here and they
just block people for breathing. I'm assuming

338
00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:11.599
they look at timelines and then they
just block, so it must be what

339
00:28:11.640 --> 00:28:17.319
they do all day. But like
it's like a badge of honor, right,

340
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:18.880
to a lot of people, it
is right to get I saw a

341
00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:22.319
whole thread of people were like,
oh we got block, we got block,

342
00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:26.160
we got blocked. They were very
excited. But but back to my

343
00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:29.880
scenario, but at least there's some
time there. If somebody's harassing you and

344
00:28:29.960 --> 00:28:32.960
you block them, they immediately know. If they think if they're muted,

345
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:37.240
there may be this this respite where
they don't know that they're muted. You

346
00:28:37.240 --> 00:28:41.119
know what I'm saying, Most people
don't know still piling their garbage on so

347
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:47.200
they don't have to create accounts like
KCO d R H one two, you

348
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:51.119
know what I'm saying, like where
it's obvious somebody's trying to get around it,

349
00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:55.079
so they don't have to use their
personal account to say what they really

350
00:28:55.119 --> 00:29:03.240
think. That would be a scenario, an allegory. You keep pointing to

351
00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:07.359
that account, and I keep telling
you that it is not anything to do

352
00:29:07.440 --> 00:29:18.559
with me. Literally has our initials
M. It's annoying the account. Yeah,

353
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:21.319
the account is funny. And now
I figured out who it is though,

354
00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:25.440
which makes it even better. Oh
good, Okay. The best thing

355
00:29:25.480 --> 00:29:30.119
to do on Twitter is the soft
block. Are you familiar with the soft

356
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:33.599
block? Tell me tell me more. This is the greatest thing ever.

357
00:29:34.079 --> 00:29:40.880
So if you block somebody and immediately
unblock that person, it removes them from

358
00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:45.079
following you, but they don't know
you did it. Oh, so that

359
00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:48.720
is my new go to. It
is the greatest thing ever. And I

360
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:51.960
discovered it by accident because I blocked
somebody and then I felt bad about it,

361
00:29:52.000 --> 00:29:53.960
and then I unblocked him, and
I was there. It was not

362
00:29:55.319 --> 00:29:57.400
everything's done about you. So I
went back to their account. I realized,

363
00:29:57.400 --> 00:30:00.920
oh my god, they're not following
me anymore. And that's how it

364
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:03.200
works. So that person is harassing
you and they're being a jerk, right,

365
00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:07.160
And to keep posting in your kind
of resets the relationship. Not that,

366
00:30:07.240 --> 00:30:10.480
but you're not going to show up
in their feet anymore. No,

367
00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:11.960
no, no, that's what I
mean. It resets the relationship with that

368
00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:15.599
person, like you never saw that. It's gonna be like your account no

369
00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:18.319
longer exists to their accounts, so
when they're scrolling their feet, they're no

370
00:30:18.359 --> 00:30:21.400
longer going to see it. Now. If they happen to think, hey,

371
00:30:21.480 --> 00:30:23.279
I haven't seen Ross's post in a
while, and they go into my

372
00:30:23.319 --> 00:30:26.640
page and see that, they're un
following me or that they in followed me.

373
00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:30.720
Most of the time they assume that
Twitter made a mistake and they'll send

374
00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:36.160
you a message like Twitter keeps on
following me from your page. And it's

375
00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:41.200
hilarious. It's absolutely and you're like, yeah, I don't know anything about

376
00:30:41.200 --> 00:30:44.680
that, buddy. It's weird,
but it's so great because you're just not

377
00:30:44.759 --> 00:30:48.720
going to show up in the couch
laughing it is, so it's hilarious.

378
00:30:48.839 --> 00:30:52.880
Yeah, without the mask, it's
so great. I was unaware. It

379
00:30:53.000 --> 00:30:56.319
is a game changer. It is
called the soft block, and it's great.

380
00:30:57.440 --> 00:31:02.519
So look, if the you would
agree that the problem, if you

381
00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:06.599
were to think it out, is
probably people block blocking advertisers, right,

382
00:31:06.880 --> 00:31:11.119
I know I do all the time. But every single must thinking probably is

383
00:31:11.160 --> 00:31:15.160
that right, yeah, because he's
losing out probably on views and clicks and

384
00:31:15.160 --> 00:31:18.839
revenue, so right. And of
course then they wanted to make it where

385
00:31:18.839 --> 00:31:22.559
they get because the thing now that
everyone loves to do when must does something,

386
00:31:22.599 --> 00:31:27.240
as they run to EU regulators,
these unelected bureaucrats over there and they're

387
00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:32.079
like, oh, there's Walt stand
and Apple, Oh you can't put this

388
00:31:32.200 --> 00:31:36.079
on the Apple store. And that's
literally there's articles out this morning where you

389
00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:40.200
have to have this block feature,
and one of the designers, one of

390
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:45.920
the engineers, Tracy Chow, who
builds software, says it modifications could ruin

391
00:31:45.000 --> 00:31:52.039
the mute function. However, one
of must designers said that they as a

392
00:31:52.079 --> 00:32:00.319
product developer, they are looking at
making the mute features stronger by adding several

393
00:32:00.359 --> 00:32:06.160
of the functions of the block feature, such as preventing people to reply to

394
00:32:06.200 --> 00:32:09.920
tweets or quote them, and by
transferring block lists to mute lists. That's

395
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:13.960
the other thing. These big lists. We're on one of the lists.

396
00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:16.680
Did you know that ross, We're
on one of the moon batt lists.

397
00:32:16.720 --> 00:32:22.319
I'm not surprised. Somebody's somebody sent
me a while ago they I'd see if

398
00:32:22.319 --> 00:32:24.400
I can find I thought I sent
it to you. Maybe I didn't.

399
00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:30.279
But basically you can get these You
can get these lists just like follow lists

400
00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:36.759
that are designed blocklists. And so
if you're if you want to operate and

401
00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:39.319
you never want to have some jackass
radio host on there, you can get

402
00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:44.799
a list of all these jackass radio
hosts such as myself, and then when

403
00:32:44.880 --> 00:32:47.960
you on your Twitter account, you
just and then it goes through and blocks

404
00:32:49.000 --> 00:32:52.480
him. And these lists are extensive, and there's some political lists going on

405
00:32:52.519 --> 00:33:05.160
out there that are crazy with a
ton of people. So they share those

406
00:33:05.200 --> 00:33:07.200
around and some people are like,
oh, must is trying to combat that.

407
00:33:07.440 --> 00:33:15.559
I don't know that he cares.
So the real financial impact is you

408
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:17.720
get the EU people to say they'll
screw with him. Apple to say that,

409
00:33:17.880 --> 00:33:21.799
ah, if they don't do anything, or if they do that,

410
00:33:21.839 --> 00:33:24.119
then we'll take him out of the
app store, and you know that's how

411
00:33:24.119 --> 00:33:27.920
they're going to go around for this. But here's where it gets crazy.

412
00:33:28.400 --> 00:33:30.359
So people have a lot of thoughts
on this. I understand that you can

413
00:33:30.400 --> 00:33:34.599
weigh in if you want. However, this is what I don't understand.

414
00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:40.200
So James Wood, so you all
know, the actor who was very very

415
00:33:40.200 --> 00:33:45.000
present on Twitter and then got eighty
six under the old Twitter and brought back,

416
00:33:46.400 --> 00:33:52.160
said, if Elon Musk removes the
ability to block concerted harassment by trolls

417
00:33:52.240 --> 00:33:58.279
or organized political entities, how will
X be any different than Jack Dorsey's Twitter.

418
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:01.720
Musk, whom I once championed,
is only doing this to protect his

419
00:34:01.839 --> 00:34:07.400
advertisers. Anyway, users of X
are mere pawns to turn the site into

420
00:34:07.440 --> 00:34:12.519
an electronic shopping mall. The man
I thought was a defender of free speech

421
00:34:12.639 --> 00:34:16.000
is not just is now another greedy
capitalist. Disappointing but not surprising. So

422
00:34:16.119 --> 00:34:20.519
look, James Wood, some people
are couching. As James Wood just criticized

423
00:34:20.559 --> 00:34:22.599
it, he obviously went all in. When we come back, I'll tell

424
00:34:22.639 --> 00:34:27.559
you what Elon must retweet or posted
back to him that has people scratching their

425
00:34:27.559 --> 00:34:32.639
heads because somebody it's like a one
of those hungry Snickers commercials. It really

426
00:34:32.719 --> 00:34:37.239
wasn't a good look. Would be
my two cents on it, but we'll

427
00:34:37.320 --> 00:34:43.599
let you decide at six fifty two
k c O Day Radio program. Hang

428
00:34:43.639 --> 00:34:49.320
on, all right, so we
get you Elon his response to James Wood

429
00:34:49.400 --> 00:34:52.840
and your phone calls coming up right
after the news k c O Day Radio

430
00:34:52.960 --> 00:35:21.719
program. All right, good morning
everybody, and welcome back at his seven

431
00:35:21.880 --> 00:35:24.320
zero seven here on the k c
O Day Radio program. We're gonna talking

432
00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:32.199
a little about the Twitter x whatever
and uh Elon on Friday saying that,

433
00:35:32.679 --> 00:35:36.320
you know, we might do away
with the block feature, Like I understand

434
00:35:36.360 --> 00:35:40.119
why he didn't lock the block like
the block feature because people block advertisers.

435
00:35:40.960 --> 00:35:50.239
I'm guilty. I'm sure others are
guilty as well. But what it just

436
00:35:50.320 --> 00:35:54.639
seems like it's something you could have
fixed and not uh turned it into this.

437
00:35:54.800 --> 00:35:59.880
Although maybe he thinks it's good public
pub I don't know, because an

438
00:36:00.119 --> 00:36:01.880
got activists running and saying, Wow, we're gonna get Apple to take it

439
00:36:01.880 --> 00:36:07.159
out of the store. The EU's
gonna ban it wahahaha, neither of which

440
00:36:07.159 --> 00:36:12.880
will likely happen. Then, dude, I did a Google Chrome update,

441
00:36:12.960 --> 00:36:15.239
and when it updates, even though
I've never allowed to send notifications, now

442
00:36:15.239 --> 00:36:20.480
it's sending me stupid entertainment stories every
five minutes in a little annoying thing.

443
00:36:20.519 --> 00:36:27.039
I'll fix that during the break.
Thank you for that, Google. So

444
00:36:27.440 --> 00:36:30.440
yeah, there's changes you couldn't made, like don't let people block in And

445
00:36:30.480 --> 00:36:31.719
I saw somebody push back and go, well, if you don't let people

446
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:36.599
block the advertisers, then they'll get
irritated and leave because they're not used to

447
00:36:36.599 --> 00:36:40.199
that. I'm like, have you
been on YouTube without being I guess premium

448
00:36:40.199 --> 00:36:45.519
YouTube. That's how it works,
right, If you don't have premium YouTube

449
00:36:45.519 --> 00:37:30.719
and you want to go watch something
one oh six one FM Talk and ninety

450
00:37:30.760 --> 00:37:37.679
four five w PTI two stations driving
the best end Talk this is Casey o

451
00:37:37.800 --> 00:37:42.960
Day and Carolina's Morning News. Well
that's what I get for teasing the Monday

452
00:37:43.039 --> 00:37:46.079
gods on equipment stuff or or maybe
e laund in it, I don't know,

453
00:37:46.360 --> 00:37:51.599
or Google because I was complaining about
Chrome sending me all these stupid notifications

454
00:37:51.639 --> 00:37:55.880
after an update. But whatever,
I'd hate to have to accidentally have the

455
00:37:55.920 --> 00:38:00.599
studio burned down. Actually should make
our jokes because we've got an Arson story

456
00:38:00.599 --> 00:38:02.679
coming up. I'm gonna get to
that here in just a moment. But

457
00:38:04.280 --> 00:38:07.639
what I was saying with Twitter,
like this was all avoidable and all he

458
00:38:07.679 --> 00:38:13.800
had to do was just be like, we're gonna not let you block advertisers

459
00:38:13.840 --> 00:38:19.559
anymore, or we're going to create
a combination block mute and here's the features,

460
00:38:19.559 --> 00:38:22.199
and then see what people think.
So James Woods posts this thing on

461
00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:31.920
there, and for no reason I
can understand he Elon responds to James woods

462
00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:35.639
criticism, which is more than just
the block. I mean, he's like,

463
00:38:35.719 --> 00:38:37.400
you're a greedy capitalist, You're not
the defender of free speech. I

464
00:38:37.400 --> 00:38:42.920
thought you were disappointing, not surprising. So obviously something stuck in Woods is

465
00:38:42.960 --> 00:38:47.000
Crows as well, and then Elon
wrote, then delete your account. And

466
00:38:47.440 --> 00:38:52.440
so even people who I think are
probably pretty staunch Elon supporters didn't really like

467
00:38:52.719 --> 00:38:58.400
him laying into James Woods of all
people. It's just super weird. I

468
00:38:58.400 --> 00:39:00.760
read. I'm like, I think
Elon might need like a nap or like

469
00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:06.320
a vacation or something is breaking.
I don't know, but I you know,

470
00:39:06.559 --> 00:39:13.119
let's let's be honest. We've all, like quick response tweeted something in

471
00:39:13.159 --> 00:39:15.760
which we kind of had and it's
a little different when you're Elon Musk,

472
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:20.159
right, it's different when you own
the site, right, So, and

473
00:39:20.199 --> 00:39:22.840
then his excuse to us he was
why he was blocking people was super weird,

474
00:39:24.039 --> 00:39:27.320
Yeah, because it was read it. Everything's a meme, man,

475
00:39:27.559 --> 00:39:30.639
it was just weird. He was
like, I guess people who block people

476
00:39:30.800 --> 00:39:32.920
don't like to be blocked. How
is it like to taste your own medicine?

477
00:39:34.119 --> 00:39:37.199
And I felt like the Anchorman meme
where it's like that makes no sense,

478
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:39.039
Like I read it over and over
again, like I don't understand what

479
00:39:39.440 --> 00:39:45.559
he's saying here makes no don't know, don't it just seems it just appears

480
00:39:46.639 --> 00:39:49.960
this could have been easily avoided.
I guess was my point? All right,

481
00:39:50.039 --> 00:39:51.960
let me grab a couple of calls, and we get into the arts

482
00:39:52.000 --> 00:39:53.599
and he start, did you want
to add some No? Okay, all

483
00:39:53.679 --> 00:39:57.719
right, let me have a couple
of calls. Jamal, you're up first,

484
00:39:57.760 --> 00:40:01.159
go ahead? What casey? Like
I said, I'm one of the

485
00:40:01.239 --> 00:40:07.000
people who Elon Musk allowed my other
account to come back, and I will.

486
00:40:07.239 --> 00:40:12.559
And now I'm able to follow you
guys, able to get notification from

487
00:40:12.559 --> 00:40:15.039
you all, which is good because, like let's say, like if I'm

488
00:40:15.119 --> 00:40:19.079
up under a building, or let's
say like if you guys are really talking

489
00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:22.079
about something that's really really good,
what you want, joy you all the

490
00:40:22.079 --> 00:40:24.840
time you always are. I'm able
to but share it, retweet it,

491
00:40:27.079 --> 00:40:31.079
speak about it as well, so
I'll be honest. The new Twitter he

492
00:40:31.400 --> 00:40:35.440
you know, because I guess he
let me back. That's why I'm I

493
00:40:35.599 --> 00:40:39.519
like it. But the thing about
you can't block somebody, I'm gonna tell

494
00:40:39.559 --> 00:40:45.159
you like this because I'm someone who
get the old guy you sell out even

495
00:40:45.159 --> 00:40:50.840
tell I'm those type of emails or
those type of tweets, I'm gona this.

496
00:40:51.880 --> 00:40:58.400
I mute you because as long as
you keep coming back and speaking on

497
00:40:58.519 --> 00:41:01.679
my page, guess what you bling
traffic? You bring track but do you

498
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:06.079
bring views. I do the same
fingale Instagram, and then I restrict the

499
00:41:06.159 --> 00:41:10.000
comments. So then if I'm able
to if I'm able to like it,

500
00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:13.880
then I share it, then I
let people see it. If I don't,

501
00:41:13.880 --> 00:41:20.280
oh well let's just stay muted.
So yeah, that's a good point.

502
00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:22.480
Look you I recognize, and I'm
sure you do that. There are

503
00:41:22.559 --> 00:41:29.360
situations where people are using Twitter and
access to somebody as a way to do

504
00:41:29.480 --> 00:41:31.760
something that rises to the level of
criminal harassment. I'll give you an example

505
00:41:32.719 --> 00:41:37.119
that was used there and I understand
it where you had people who like,

506
00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:42.440
let's say there was an abusive relationship
in one of the partners literally had a

507
00:41:42.480 --> 00:41:46.159
restraining order against the other one,
and then that individual decides to harass them

508
00:41:46.199 --> 00:41:50.400
on Twitter. Yes, there's a
criminal element to that, but shouldn't that

509
00:41:50.440 --> 00:41:52.239
person be able to block so they
don't have to deal with that? And

510
00:41:52.400 --> 00:41:55.159
I think so, yeah, I
would agree. But if you if,

511
00:41:55.440 --> 00:41:58.920
if you, just if you want
to make it so the advertisers can't get

512
00:41:58.920 --> 00:42:02.000
blocked, fine, and then do
that. And then if you say strengthen

513
00:42:02.039 --> 00:42:06.440
the mute, say you're combining it, but have the features where you can

514
00:42:06.480 --> 00:42:12.039
actually purge that person and and this
was all unnecessary. That's all I'm saying.

515
00:42:12.079 --> 00:42:15.000
So I hear you, Jamal appreciate
the PULPM. All right, thanks

516
00:42:15.039 --> 00:42:21.679
Casey, Yeah yeah, yeah,
all right. So Jamal is just happy

517
00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:24.679
to be back. Didn't he used
to? Like doesn't he lead the league?

518
00:42:24.719 --> 00:42:29.000
And strikes over on Facebook or something. I don't know if he's even

519
00:42:29.039 --> 00:42:31.639
back on there, dude, I
have no idea. You got a gazillion

520
00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:35.320
followers. It's like, because he
said an email, he's like, I've

521
00:42:35.400 --> 00:42:37.960
struck again. See. I know
a lot of people like that sort of

522
00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:40.039
negative engagement because it could brings some
traffic, but personally, I don't care.

523
00:42:40.760 --> 00:42:45.159
Right well, but if you're somebody
who's and I point this out he

524
00:42:45.280 --> 00:42:50.840
had he had a lot of people
on Facebook and now Twitter, it's a

525
00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:55.679
big it's a big hurdle to get
up to. It's what impressions based,

526
00:42:55.679 --> 00:43:00.440
but you can actually monetize it.
Is it like fifteen million impressions or something

527
00:43:00.559 --> 00:43:05.119
or I'm not sure the number of
it. But if you're somebody who's striving

528
00:43:05.159 --> 00:43:07.840
for that, yeah, you're gonna
want all the engagement you want. And

529
00:43:07.880 --> 00:43:12.119
even if it's somebody calling you whatever. I don't know, Bill, what's

530
00:43:12.199 --> 00:43:19.519
up if they're gross? Is right? Some time ago they the movie Compty,

531
00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:22.280
decided to go digital, so instead
of making films, they started making

532
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:28.239
cassettes with like hard drives. They
ship them out to the theaters and they

533
00:43:28.239 --> 00:43:30.639
were okay, but you know they
didn't you didn't have the quality you had

534
00:43:30.639 --> 00:43:35.119
with film. So now all the
manufacturers are going back to film, like

535
00:43:35.480 --> 00:43:38.960
Barbie and Oppenheimer, and you can
actually see the difference in the films.

536
00:43:40.039 --> 00:43:44.079
And the other drawback was after about
ten years, all the people who knew

537
00:43:44.079 --> 00:43:47.760
how to run the theaters of the
projectors have retired or gone away. So

538
00:43:47.800 --> 00:43:52.320
now there's a big push and try
and find people who can actually run run

539
00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:54.440
theaters, going to run the movies
through the through the pecs. So how

540
00:43:54.480 --> 00:44:00.639
does this play sixteen hour days?
Right? So how does us tie into

541
00:44:00.679 --> 00:44:05.559
the DC versus Marvel thing we were
having earlier? Well, it's it's the

542
00:44:05.679 --> 00:44:09.360
quality. It's the systems that they
use that they use for projecting the cassette

543
00:44:09.440 --> 00:44:14.760
versus the film. Right. But
but but Ross's complaint, Yeah, but

544
00:44:14.840 --> 00:44:17.719
Ross's complaint that when you look at
the CGI it has either a hue or

545
00:44:17.800 --> 00:44:22.760
looks different is not simply because in
the theater it looks that way. If

546
00:44:22.800 --> 00:44:27.840
you would you watch it on DVD
or streaming or whatever. He's not wrong.

547
00:44:28.760 --> 00:44:31.119
So that's not a film issue.
That's not a projector issue. That's

548
00:44:31.159 --> 00:44:37.840
the whatever CGI level of CGI they
want to use, unless it's the delivery

549
00:44:37.840 --> 00:44:42.239
system is the problem what they're using
to do the filming, because you can

550
00:44:42.280 --> 00:44:45.280
even see it in certain films are
are going to be darker than others.

551
00:44:45.599 --> 00:44:47.320
Yeah, I just I don't know
how that would All of the DC ones

552
00:44:47.320 --> 00:44:52.559
would transfer over that way and have
a very similar look. But maybe Bill

553
00:44:52.559 --> 00:44:57.440
Sorry, I just cut Bill off. He's gonna mute me or block me,

554
00:44:57.639 --> 00:45:00.320
but I can't block me if Ellen
does this thing. But whatever.

555
00:45:01.039 --> 00:45:06.119
Yeah, yeah, I don't.
I think it's just it's a and I'm

556
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:09.039
sure that there's this. There's also
a look that they're going for. I

557
00:45:09.360 --> 00:45:13.079
give you an example. We got
a story in the stack. Let me

558
00:45:13.119 --> 00:45:15.159
just hit this real quick, and
we're gonna get into the bicycle insanity because

559
00:45:15.360 --> 00:45:23.159
it just made me laugh. Do
you know they're making another Twister? Yes?

560
00:45:24.280 --> 00:45:29.280
Yes, a movie that couldn't scream
more one off if you tried,

561
00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:36.480
and was based on a story by
Michael Crichton, right of Jurassic Park fame,

562
00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:42.440
and quite a few others. Joy
Michael Crichton. So the So the

563
00:45:42.440 --> 00:45:46.960
the original Twisters from nineteen ninety six. By the way, I'm sure most

564
00:45:46.960 --> 00:45:51.280
of you saw that movie. It
was very, very popular. It had

565
00:45:51.440 --> 00:45:55.679
it Girl of the Moment, Helen
Hunt and Bill Paxton, and they were

566
00:45:55.760 --> 00:45:59.599
running around chasing tornadoes. That's what
you need to know. If you haven't

567
00:45:59.599 --> 00:46:01.000
seen it, go watching. And
it was a pretty good movie. And

568
00:46:01.199 --> 00:46:07.519
I remember too talking about special effects. It was one or like it's amazing,

569
00:46:07.039 --> 00:46:12.320
And it was amazing because as you
read the article, you realize that

570
00:46:12.440 --> 00:46:15.840
when they did the movie, they
didn't have the technology they have right now.

571
00:46:19.000 --> 00:46:22.840
So right back in the day,
they used a real cow, well

572
00:46:22.920 --> 00:46:24.400
not a real cow, no,
it's a real living cow. Man.

573
00:46:24.440 --> 00:46:28.960
They propelled it through the sky.
Okay, it's a stunt cow. Yeah,

574
00:46:29.079 --> 00:46:32.719
you just go hire a stunt right. But to Ross's kind of point,

575
00:46:34.800 --> 00:46:37.760
they really were throwing all that crap
around. So when you saw a

576
00:46:37.880 --> 00:46:40.639
car and a bunch of ice come
fly, now that a tornado. That's

577
00:46:40.719 --> 00:46:46.599
because they created a machine to launch
a car and all of that. You

578
00:46:46.639 --> 00:46:51.920
know, hail and other store debris. They were launched. That was all

579
00:46:52.000 --> 00:46:57.440
real stuff, and it was ungodly
expensive and complicated to shoot, as you

580
00:46:57.480 --> 00:47:00.800
can imagine, because you gotta get
you gotta get that ac or I gotta

581
00:47:00.840 --> 00:47:04.320
go find another car to launch.
So they were doing all that the real

582
00:47:04.440 --> 00:47:09.320
they went through forty cows. Well
there's a lot of cows. AOC was

583
00:47:09.360 --> 00:47:17.719
pleased the good. Yeah. So
so now they're making Twisters another movie,

584
00:47:17.760 --> 00:47:22.800
and the original the director of the
original movie is he's not a big fan.

585
00:47:25.440 --> 00:47:30.840
He said, they're gonna screw it
up because while he said Twister helped

586
00:47:30.880 --> 00:47:35.239
advance the use of visual effects,
visual effects are when they say visual effects.

587
00:47:35.280 --> 00:47:40.639
In this case, they're talking about
actually utilizing real stuff, actually launching

588
00:47:40.800 --> 00:47:49.000
a cow or more likely a car, and and having to do it that

589
00:47:49.039 --> 00:47:52.000
way. And the CGI today just
doesn't look like that, and bad CGI,

590
00:47:52.159 --> 00:47:55.920
he's right, doesn't. He also
says something interesting. He also points

591
00:47:55.920 --> 00:48:00.159
out that the guy that got to
direct it, he is a fan of

592
00:48:00.239 --> 00:48:04.320
Lee Isaac Chung, but he says
it's interesting nowadays as a retired director.

593
00:48:04.360 --> 00:48:08.559
He said he's eighty now or something
seventy nine. He said that the reason

594
00:48:08.719 --> 00:48:13.800
studios are moving into inexperienced directors.
It's kind of what they did to the

595
00:48:13.800 --> 00:48:16.840
Hollywood Star. We've had this conversation
on the air. Is because they're more

596
00:48:16.880 --> 00:48:23.159
controllable, he said, quote,
don't forget the main reason they keep finding

597
00:48:23.199 --> 00:48:27.719
younger, inexperienced directors is they want
to be able to fully control them.

598
00:48:28.000 --> 00:48:30.719
They want to have really good ads, writers, producers, cinematographers, so

599
00:48:30.719 --> 00:48:36.159
they have all the help they can
get. But ultimately, the director is

600
00:48:36.639 --> 00:48:38.639
the studio is going to tell them
what's in the movie. I know this

601
00:48:38.719 --> 00:48:43.800
firsthand. He's not wrong. And
like I said, we had the discussion

602
00:48:43.840 --> 00:48:50.119
about the Hollywood Star, who's the
last Hollywood star arguably out there? I

603
00:48:50.119 --> 00:48:54.239
mean there's arguably there's probably a handful
Tom Cruise, but Tom Cruise is is

604
00:48:54.320 --> 00:48:58.679
top of the And when I say
Hollywood stars, I mean like you hear

605
00:48:58.760 --> 00:49:00.760
that person's doing a movie, you
go see it because that's person's there.

606
00:49:01.519 --> 00:49:07.679
Whereas and the Marvel movies were a
good example, you weren't going because of

607
00:49:07.719 --> 00:49:12.719
the person playing the characters, even
though they're quote big stars. Now,

608
00:49:13.320 --> 00:49:16.280
ultimately just because so and so is
in a movie. It's not like when

609
00:49:16.320 --> 00:49:20.480
Clint Eastwood had a new movie coming
out right, and you go see it

610
00:49:20.519 --> 00:49:22.239
because you're like, that's Clint Eastwood. Let's go see what he's doing.

611
00:49:23.079 --> 00:49:25.639
And it could be it could be
anything. It could be uh, you

612
00:49:25.679 --> 00:49:30.519
know, him living in Detroit surrounded
by among neighbors. It could be him

613
00:49:30.599 --> 00:49:36.000
muling drugs. It could be you
know what was the last one. It

614
00:49:36.039 --> 00:49:38.920
was a crime macho or whatever.
Like it ran the gamut, But people

615
00:49:39.079 --> 00:49:45.280
go see it because it was Clint
Eastwood and now and there. That's kind

616
00:49:45.320 --> 00:49:49.159
of how it is. Look,
if you're a studio and this, by

617
00:49:49.159 --> 00:49:51.559
the way, this is I'm probably
get in trouble for this. This is

618
00:49:51.599 --> 00:49:59.559
not just something in the in the
in the TV or film industry. It

619
00:49:59.679 --> 00:50:04.599
runs the gamut of entertainment. One
of the most expensive element or one of

620
00:50:04.639 --> 00:50:09.519
the most expensive elements that's controllable,
are staffing costs. And when you get

621
00:50:09.960 --> 00:50:14.639
when you get somebody who is legacy
to the point that Clint Eastwood is,

622
00:50:15.000 --> 00:50:19.440
it removes your ability to control things
and sometimes gets more expensive. When you

623
00:50:19.519 --> 00:50:27.159
got to hire a Tom Cruise,
it gets very expensive. So and and

624
00:50:27.280 --> 00:50:32.920
we've seen it in all sorts of
entertainment mediums where it's more about the product

625
00:50:34.039 --> 00:50:37.960
rather than the person that is the
face of the product. And plus it

626
00:50:38.079 --> 00:50:45.920
also insulates you from the cancel stuff
too. This is I mean so in

627
00:50:45.960 --> 00:50:47.000
a way, I guess I kind
of get that little part of it.

628
00:50:50.199 --> 00:50:53.079
So if you have, you know
the conundrum that they were in with the

629
00:50:53.119 --> 00:50:59.880
Flash movie, Well, the problem
is they had started shooting that they could

630
00:51:00.199 --> 00:51:04.960
easily swapped out the Flash. If
they had not begun principal filming, it

631
00:51:04.960 --> 00:51:07.280
would be a new Flash guy.
Nobody would think of it. They would

632
00:51:07.320 --> 00:51:09.559
not be like, oh no,
Ezra Miller has to be the Flash because

633
00:51:09.559 --> 00:51:15.679
he was the Flash and some of
the other DC proms, well, that's

634
00:51:15.679 --> 00:51:17.800
what you're doing here, And I
think he makes a pretty good point.

635
00:51:17.880 --> 00:51:21.320
So anyway, all right, that's
enough on that, because we got to

636
00:51:21.320 --> 00:51:28.039
get into the story of a well
an alleged arsonist. I'll let you be

637
00:51:28.119 --> 00:51:35.400
the judge, and how technology and
the Internet and us always being watched may

638
00:51:35.440 --> 00:51:43.280
have played into this story, which
made me chuckle. That's next Your day

639
00:51:43.440 --> 00:51:49.239
Smarter one oh six one FM Talk
and News Talk nine four five w PTI

640
00:51:49.719 --> 00:51:57.119
more with Casey Starts. Now,
all right, good morning, welcome back

641
00:51:57.159 --> 00:52:00.280
in his seven thirty five and I
want to tell you two story. He's

642
00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:05.880
one from right here in North Carolina
and another one h well all over the

643
00:52:05.920 --> 00:52:10.199
world in secret places we probably shouldn't
have known about, and how they interconnect.

644
00:52:12.159 --> 00:52:16.079
So I was watching this insanity play
out over the weekend and it was

645
00:52:16.119 --> 00:52:19.840
one of the it was it's one
of those stories where it's just made to

646
00:52:19.880 --> 00:52:24.400
go viral. Right. So it's
a homeowner. He's got a nest or

647
00:52:24.480 --> 00:52:30.199
ring camera or whatever out as many
do, and on his property he has

648
00:52:30.320 --> 00:52:37.840
a banner that says try I think
it's a Trump won, Trump won all

649
00:52:37.920 --> 00:52:43.639
right or Trump twenty twenty four sign
notes says Trump one. I'm looking at

650
00:52:43.679 --> 00:52:47.320
it right now, okay. And
he's got that prominently displayed in his yard.

651
00:52:47.400 --> 00:52:53.360
Like so many homes around North Carolina, this case in Raleigh have signs

652
00:52:53.360 --> 00:52:59.760
in new yard and they could be
Trump won, they could be what was

653
00:52:59.800 --> 00:53:02.400
the what was the sign that person
had forever just up the road from the

654
00:53:02.440 --> 00:53:07.119
station for what was it? For
pocahonas right? It was Elizabeth Warren sign

655
00:53:07.239 --> 00:53:13.719
or something in their yard. Uh. And then they had an AOC sign

656
00:53:14.760 --> 00:53:21.280
right up by the oh where a
New Hope Church road is in Atlantic Avenue

657
00:53:22.679 --> 00:53:24.880
Ross it was Elizabeth Warren right that
he had a sign forever or she.

658
00:53:25.039 --> 00:53:28.920
I don't know who there it was
Elizabeth Warren sign. Yeah, yeah,

659
00:53:29.000 --> 00:53:35.480
yeah, all right, so Ross
is eating an egg. I'm disturbing him.

660
00:53:35.760 --> 00:53:38.519
You gotta get the protein, manu. So anyway, so they had

661
00:53:38.599 --> 00:53:43.400
Liz so whatever. And we've done
many, many, many stories about people

662
00:53:43.440 --> 00:53:46.760
with signs in their yard. They
had a person getting mad at a dude

663
00:53:46.760 --> 00:53:50.039
who had a sign in a tree
up in wake Forest, and then there

664
00:53:50.119 --> 00:53:53.679
was the guy who made videos of
him electrifying the sign, which made for

665
00:53:53.719 --> 00:53:57.320
some hilarious content, and then the
police like, yeah, you shouldn't do

666
00:53:57.360 --> 00:53:59.400
that. So anyway, this guy
doesn't have any of that. He just

667
00:53:59.440 --> 00:54:05.039
got a sign out there telling you
what he thinks. And as you can

668
00:54:05.079 --> 00:54:07.800
imagine, that irritates some people,
especially. This is a neighborhood that's inside

669
00:54:07.840 --> 00:54:14.199
the belt line. This is near
five Points. This is not too far.

670
00:54:14.320 --> 00:54:15.840
Actually, I won't tell you where
I live, but I'll tell you

671
00:54:15.880 --> 00:54:23.079
where my house is, and it's
not too far from this. And there

672
00:54:23.119 --> 00:54:29.480
are a lot of people, especially
people who moved into that area. See,

673
00:54:29.480 --> 00:54:32.000
the trick was to move like ten
years ago when it was still affordable

674
00:54:32.000 --> 00:54:36.119
to move over there. But as
a result, there's a lot of people

675
00:54:36.159 --> 00:54:38.280
that moved in, came from California, had so much equity they were paying

676
00:54:38.360 --> 00:54:44.920
cash for those houses. It's crazy. So there is a definitive moon vat

677
00:54:45.079 --> 00:54:47.239
vibe in that area. So some
guy with a sign that says Trump,

678
00:54:47.280 --> 00:54:52.320
one's gonna draw attention. But that's
his prerogative. Whatever. It's a sign.

679
00:54:52.400 --> 00:54:54.360
You move on. Even if you
go, oh, look at this

680
00:54:54.400 --> 00:54:58.480
idiot, you still move on.
That's it. That's how you deal with

681
00:54:58.519 --> 00:55:02.840
that, if you if you just
agree with him. But in these two

682
00:55:02.960 --> 00:55:07.440
videos that were posted, you see
a guy on a bicycle. One is

683
00:55:07.719 --> 00:55:12.079
August twelfth, and these are important. I bet him telling you the dates

684
00:55:12.119 --> 00:55:15.440
because I think some people are trying
to push back on this, but they

685
00:55:15.440 --> 00:55:22.199
don't understand what's happening. So one
is August twelfth, and it's daytime,

686
00:55:22.280 --> 00:55:27.679
it's seven fourteen in the morning,
and you see his bicyclists kind of pull

687
00:55:27.760 --> 00:55:30.000
onto the grass where this sign is. There's an American flag next to it,

688
00:55:31.000 --> 00:55:38.079
and he starts kicking it with his
little bicycle shoe, and you know

689
00:55:38.239 --> 00:55:43.480
it doesn't really do anything. It's
obviously got some it's durable, and he

690
00:55:43.559 --> 00:55:50.920
moves on. However, if you
keep watching, there's a second clip and

691
00:55:52.239 --> 00:55:54.760
I'm gonna retweet. I'm gonna retweet
this right now, just so it's right.

692
00:55:55.519 --> 00:55:58.599
No, I don't want to quote, tweet, stop it, just

693
00:55:58.719 --> 00:56:04.639
retweet. Ah, why are you
doing this? Repost? Excuse me?

694
00:56:05.280 --> 00:56:08.360
All right? So in the video, then you see another from August fifteenth,

695
00:56:08.360 --> 00:56:13.559
this one at four nineteen in the
morning, and in this instance a

696
00:56:13.679 --> 00:56:17.199
bicyclist appearing to be in pretty much
the same outfit, though now it's dark

697
00:56:17.239 --> 00:56:20.679
so it's harder to make out the
detail of it, but it's definitely the

698
00:56:20.679 --> 00:56:25.400
bicycle shorts with the helmet and all
the stuff comes back, and in the

699
00:56:25.519 --> 00:56:34.440
video they have one of those barbecue
lighters and they light it up the sign.

700
00:56:34.920 --> 00:56:37.679
They do push the American flag kind
of out of the way at first,

701
00:56:37.719 --> 00:56:42.440
so there's that. But they arson
somebody's property, is what it appears

702
00:56:42.480 --> 00:56:49.800
to show in this video, and
that got posted. Journalist Stephen Horne did

703
00:56:49.800 --> 00:56:52.199
a piece on this. He interviewed
and talked to a cats who took two

704
00:56:52.719 --> 00:57:01.400
our cats. Excuse me, we
make sure here real quick, because I

705
00:57:01.400 --> 00:57:05.920
want to clarify, because there's two
people, one more prominent than the other

706
00:57:05.960 --> 00:57:08.039
with this name, and I don't
think they're the same person, So I

707
00:57:08.079 --> 00:57:16.159
think it's important too. Hold on, what is going on, dude,

708
00:57:16.159 --> 00:57:20.519
do not update your chrome. I'm
just telling you, do not update your

709
00:57:20.599 --> 00:57:23.440
chrome. All right, So John
Kane, the owner of the sign,

710
00:57:23.599 --> 00:57:27.360
I don't believe it's the same.
Judgment by the picture, I don't think

711
00:57:27.400 --> 00:57:30.239
it's the John Kine, the developer, the North Hills guy, But I

712
00:57:30.239 --> 00:57:34.800
don't know. Maybe he just looks
really young, or he used a younger

713
00:57:34.800 --> 00:57:37.400
pig. I've actually seen him,
so that would have to be like a

714
00:57:37.480 --> 00:57:40.480
much younger picture I'm not aware of. But anyway, he posted these videos

715
00:57:40.519 --> 00:57:45.079
online and it drew interest, and
it drew interest from like Tim Pool,

716
00:57:45.320 --> 00:57:50.880
Benny Johnson and others, because you
know, this is one of this is

717
00:57:50.880 --> 00:57:57.800
a very chewable viral thing. And
so the journalist here, Stephen Horne,

718
00:57:57.880 --> 00:58:07.199
who he's the one who also did
the stories on the arrest of the the

719
00:58:07.400 --> 00:58:12.480
quote anti mask protesters and all of
that insanity and all of that legal behind

720
00:58:12.519 --> 00:58:17.920
the scenes maneuvering, which by the
way, sounds incredibly troubling that we covered

721
00:58:17.960 --> 00:58:22.760
on the show here. Also,
I believe I saw a piece he did

722
00:58:22.800 --> 00:58:30.000
where he was interviewing Democrats who donated
but who showed to have donated like fifteen

723
00:58:30.119 --> 00:58:35.000
thousand to Act Blue. And they're
interviewing this guy who is obviously a guy

724
00:58:35.000 --> 00:58:37.920
who donates a Democrat causes, but
he's like a senior dude on a fixed

725
00:58:37.960 --> 00:58:42.599
income, so he's given twenty here, fifty there, and he's like,

726
00:58:42.719 --> 00:58:46.039
there's no way I made a fifteen
thousand dollar donation. So it's you know,

727
00:58:46.079 --> 00:58:52.679
it's very in line with some of
that new age kind of investigative journalism.

728
00:58:52.679 --> 00:58:58.199
It's good stuff. So in this
case, the story is then goes

729
00:58:58.280 --> 00:59:02.679
viral through the article and then hitting
some of the big Twitter folks and before

730
00:59:02.719 --> 00:59:07.840
you know, there's an eleven thousand
dollar reward for the identity of whoever the

731
00:59:07.920 --> 00:59:13.400
cyclist is. All right, So
this is where this is where technology comes

732
00:59:13.400 --> 00:59:15.920
in, and this is where my
second story comes in. A while ago,

733
00:59:16.159 --> 00:59:22.400
we did a show, or did
a story on this show about Strava

734
00:59:22.599 --> 00:59:27.360
and it was the military was not
pleased with this. And Strava is a

735
00:59:28.320 --> 00:59:32.039
is an account that you can get
to map your workouts. So if you're

736
00:59:32.039 --> 00:59:37.079
on a bicycle, if you kayak
or canoe, if you run, you

737
00:59:37.320 --> 00:59:40.480
have it on a smart watch or
whatever, you do your thing, and

738
00:59:40.519 --> 00:59:44.239
it literally will draw a map of
what you're doing, and it gives you

739
00:59:44.239 --> 00:59:47.480
a bunch of feedback, distance,
weather condition, you name it, right.

740
00:59:47.960 --> 00:59:52.880
And it's shareable too, right,
because you know you got online,

741
00:59:52.880 --> 00:59:55.920
you gotta be able to share stuff
and show everybody what you're doing so they

742
00:59:55.960 --> 00:59:59.559
can see, ah, look,
so and so did go out for a

743
00:59:59.639 --> 01:00:07.280
run. The problem arose is that
members of our Special Forces, who obviously

744
01:00:07.280 --> 01:00:12.800
are gonna you know, they're gonna
be big on the PT they were using

745
01:00:12.800 --> 01:00:15.599
the Strata app to map their runs
that they were doing, and in some

746
01:00:15.679 --> 01:00:23.360
cases these runs were taking place in
places where it wasn't the world wasn't aware

747
01:00:23.480 --> 01:00:29.840
that the US had Special Forces soldiers
stationed there. They either didn't know it

748
01:00:29.960 --> 01:00:32.119
was a base or it's a CIA
side or whatever. So you can understand

749
01:00:32.159 --> 01:00:37.239
that that's a problem. And so
they had to eighty six that. And

750
01:00:37.400 --> 01:00:40.840
you know, nobody's doing anything that
they think is wrong. But people were

751
01:00:40.880 --> 01:00:45.679
able to make that connection and go, why is I know this person is

752
01:00:45.719 --> 01:00:50.360
a military operator and this guy is
too, and they're all jogging in the

753
01:00:50.400 --> 01:00:52.079
morning in this place. Why are
they in this place? And then you

754
01:00:52.119 --> 01:00:58.000
know the mass starts. Well,
now there's eleven thousand dollars reward. Whether

755
01:00:58.039 --> 01:01:00.639
they were driven out of money or
idology. People went to work, and

756
01:01:00.679 --> 01:01:06.159
when the internet goes to work,
look, they'll get a lot wrong.

757
01:01:06.800 --> 01:01:10.440
We've seen cases where they identified suspects
who clearly weren't and it was it was

758
01:01:10.480 --> 01:01:15.760
really really bad. But a lot
of times we're able to find stuff.

759
01:01:15.800 --> 01:01:17.360
And that's why I told the shy
lab buff story early in the show.

760
01:01:17.880 --> 01:01:25.079
So somebody figured out what was up
with a guy? A guy here in

761
01:01:25.199 --> 01:01:30.119
Raleigh. Should I put his name? I guess it's in the article.

762
01:01:30.119 --> 01:01:35.679
It's in the article, and understand
that this is their suspicion, and I

763
01:01:35.679 --> 01:01:40.039
want you to read the evidence we
read. We've retweeted the article that basically

764
01:01:40.119 --> 01:01:46.960
shows a registered Democrat guy he I
think he works in mortgages or whatever,

765
01:01:47.920 --> 01:01:53.800
uploaded his bicycle rides to his Strava
account, and those account on the dates

766
01:01:54.159 --> 01:02:00.280
literally show him not just going by
the house, but the Strava app also

767
01:02:00.400 --> 01:02:05.840
shows when you stop and so on
the app you can see at the exact

768
01:02:05.920 --> 01:02:13.400
time matching the video from the homeowner. This individual who looks because they had

769
01:02:13.480 --> 01:02:17.159
pictures of them and you match the
pictures up in specifically some very unique tattoos

770
01:02:17.159 --> 01:02:22.840
on his forearms which match you can
see on the app. He posted evidence

771
01:02:22.880 --> 01:02:28.599
of him literally stopping in front of
this guy's house. It appears on the

772
01:02:28.679 --> 01:02:35.559
HAP. So I talked about idiots
making the police's job easy, like you

773
01:02:35.559 --> 01:02:39.119
know, people holding fat stacks of
cash, bragging about bank robberies on Facebook,

774
01:02:39.480 --> 01:02:44.079
or a guy who googles how to
dispose of a body that weighs exactly

775
01:02:44.119 --> 01:02:50.559
what is now missing wife weighs?
Now you got this? So I look,

776
01:02:50.599 --> 01:02:55.679
I hope Rallig police are up in
on this. Get busy man.

777
01:02:58.079 --> 01:03:00.159
And it's all because you had to
have the latest, greatest and bragged to

778
01:03:00.239 --> 01:03:07.159
people about your bicycle route and for
those going well to be believed he's always

779
01:03:07.320 --> 01:03:09.599
they were accusing the homeowner of doing
it. I saw some people saying,

780
01:03:09.599 --> 01:03:14.599
well, he likes uh, you
know, he's active, and why would

781
01:03:14.639 --> 01:03:17.719
this guy always be in a bicycle
outfit? Well, ones at seven in

782
01:03:17.760 --> 01:03:22.480
the morning and on at four fifteen
in the morning. The one at seven

783
01:03:22.639 --> 01:03:25.559
fifteen in the morning is a Saturday
and the one at four fifteen is a

784
01:03:25.639 --> 01:03:30.239
Tuesday, And that makes sense.
So if you're somebody who bicycles in the

785
01:03:30.239 --> 01:03:32.559
morning as part of your health routine
on work days, you got to do

786
01:03:32.599 --> 01:03:37.239
it a hell of a lot earlier
than you can on a Saturday if you're

787
01:03:37.280 --> 01:03:38.480
a five day a week er.
Right, So you get up, you

788
01:03:38.519 --> 01:03:44.599
do the bikecride, you come home, eat whatever, shower that I'm at

789
01:03:44.599 --> 01:03:46.239
the gym or at a two thirty
three o'clock on the weekdays and on the

790
01:03:46.239 --> 01:03:51.360
weekend, and yesterday when at seven
thirty, right, So that actually matches

791
01:03:51.480 --> 01:03:54.840
with how people would generally continue to
do their workout on a weekend versus a

792
01:03:54.880 --> 01:04:00.599
weekday. And I just love the
technical aspect of people snitching on himself is

793
01:04:00.639 --> 01:04:05.039
so great, so great. So
yeah, this is crazy town, man.

794
01:04:05.679 --> 01:04:12.119
This story just made me laugh.
So dig into it and Raley PD

795
01:04:12.280 --> 01:04:15.559
I. I hope we're going to
do something here if because it sounds like

796
01:04:15.559 --> 01:04:18.280
there's a lot of evidence in your
lap. And I think the homeowner actually

797
01:04:18.280 --> 01:04:21.679
paid the dude who figured it out
thousand dollars, which was his end of

798
01:04:21.679 --> 01:04:27.280
the reward. We'll see if the
other two who offered five k keep up,

799
01:04:27.320 --> 01:04:32.280
but eleven thousand for day's work sleuthing
on the internet can't beat that seven

800
01:04:32.400 --> 01:04:35.159
forty oh crap race stage, Like, sorry, buddy, we had just

801
01:04:35.199 --> 01:04:40.159
a fun story here, so sorry
to leave you hanging there this morning problem

802
01:04:40.159 --> 01:04:45.760
sunny and hot, try to okay, Well, it was a little Santiago

803
01:04:45.840 --> 01:04:47.599
wish. I mean, let's just
I was looking at the forecast yesterday,

804
01:04:47.679 --> 01:04:51.559
right five day on my phone.
I'm like, ah, yeah, and

805
01:04:53.000 --> 01:04:56.480
we could be mid upper nineties.
We make it a little dip Thursday to

806
01:04:56.559 --> 01:05:00.679
closer to ninety oper eighties, low
nineties, but for this week it basically

807
01:05:00.760 --> 01:05:03.440
low mid nineties. Today, Tomorrow
lots of sunshine, might see some cloud

808
01:05:03.480 --> 01:05:06.880
at times. Even Wednesday, with
that little dip coming in, may stay

809
01:05:06.920 --> 01:05:11.159
in the eighties, but by Friday
we're back in the mid upper nineties.

810
01:05:11.159 --> 01:05:14.400
On the warmer championships will be the
triangle towards the Try at a few degrees

811
01:05:14.719 --> 01:05:16.639
cooler and in the mountain's core than
that. Probably not till the end of

812
01:05:16.639 --> 01:05:21.800
the weekend we get a break.
Hillary made headlines over the weekend heavy rainfall.

813
01:05:23.159 --> 01:05:28.760
The center did not come ashore in
southern California was the Baja Mexico where

814
01:05:28.760 --> 01:05:31.800
it came on shore, so there
was not a landfall, so to say,

815
01:05:31.840 --> 01:05:36.880
in the US, but still life
threatening flooding continuing as that moisture continues

816
01:05:36.880 --> 01:05:40.679
to go north. Yeah, and
I look, I don't I don't wish

817
01:05:40.679 --> 01:05:45.000
anybody ill will, but some of
the some of the stories after knowing that,

818
01:05:45.559 --> 01:05:49.960
mate, I'm like, I don't
think they would survive a hurricane coming

819
01:05:49.960 --> 01:05:55.199
to shore in North Carolina. You
know what I'm saying. Good people people

820
01:05:55.239 --> 01:05:57.880
are like odd's the end times,
It's all gone, And I'm like,

821
01:05:58.119 --> 01:06:00.719
yeah, well, a part of
it too is that, you know,

822
01:06:00.920 --> 01:06:05.119
usually you get weakening of these systems, and it's all about the climate too.

823
01:06:05.159 --> 01:06:08.559
I mean all seriousness. If you
get three inches of rain, it's

824
01:06:08.599 --> 01:06:13.000
a disaster there, and it's almost
the entire rainfall for some of these cities

825
01:06:13.039 --> 01:06:15.400
that they get in an entire year, like pop Springs. Now, imagine

826
01:06:15.400 --> 01:06:18.760
if they've gotten what we get on
the East Coast or the Southeast or the

827
01:06:18.800 --> 01:06:24.119
Gulf Coast where you're talking twenty twenty
five inches of rain and some of our

828
01:06:24.239 --> 01:06:29.519
landfalling tropical systems in the more common
areas they got that, forget it.

829
01:06:29.800 --> 01:06:31.800
I mean all bets would be off. So they still had their fair share

830
01:06:31.800 --> 01:06:35.199
of damage and clean up continuing.
Some of that moisture starting to get into,

831
01:06:35.199 --> 01:06:39.239
believe it or not, parts of
the Pacific, Northwest, Montana and

832
01:06:39.320 --> 01:06:43.159
even Wyoming, which may sound familiar
to you. It's okay, we'll shoot

833
01:06:43.199 --> 01:06:45.440
at it. So yeah, we'll
probably all right, all right, have

834
01:06:45.480 --> 01:06:48.760
a god one b feel later.
Oh yeah, we love shooting it stuff.

835
01:06:48.760 --> 01:06:58.639
All right, we'll be back.
Hang on, keeping you connected w

836
01:06:58.880 --> 01:07:05.519
PTI Triad and one o six one
FM Talk Dan the Triangle. All right,

837
01:07:05.559 --> 01:07:10.480
here we go. It is seven
fifty five our phone number eight eight

838
01:07:10.519 --> 01:07:14.639
eight nine three four seven eight seven
four. And you know when we get

839
01:07:14.679 --> 01:07:19.320
signs burning and people taking out there, Now it's more fun when it's a

840
01:07:19.440 --> 01:07:24.320
candidate doing it to his opposition signs. But you know, we're not that

841
01:07:24.480 --> 01:07:30.719
far from the election cycle where all
that insanity will unfold. But the part

842
01:07:30.800 --> 01:07:36.880
where people tattle on themselves digitally and
they don't realize it for some reason.

843
01:07:36.920 --> 01:07:45.199
Man, it really I love those
stories because it's just crazy town. It

844
01:07:45.280 --> 01:07:48.239
is also a good reminder like how
much is tracking you each every day,

845
01:07:48.800 --> 01:07:51.599
how screwge you are, and a
lot of it, but also how dumb

846
01:07:51.639 --> 01:07:55.440
people can be. Like the guy
I mentioned, the guy who was searching

847
01:07:55.519 --> 01:07:59.159
how to dispose of a woman's body, the ways one hundred and thirty six

848
01:07:59.199 --> 01:08:01.079
pounds are like, you're one hundred
thirty six pound. Life is missing?

849
01:08:01.920 --> 01:08:08.960
What could have happened? Like?
Police gotta love this stuff. Oh,

850
01:08:09.000 --> 01:08:13.840
it's got to make your life easy. So hopefully they drilled down on it.

851
01:08:15.880 --> 01:08:17.199
I only have a couple all right, Oh good, Okay, So

852
01:08:17.239 --> 01:08:20.960
the guy wrote the story is on
the phone. All right, Well,

853
01:08:21.000 --> 01:08:24.159
we'll talk to him after the bottom
of the hour, because I don't want

854
01:08:24.159 --> 01:08:26.199
to just talk to him for two
minutes, and I want to ask him

855
01:08:26.319 --> 01:08:30.640
solve. I want to ask him
too about the the donors too. Those

856
01:08:30.760 --> 01:08:35.600
videos were bonkers from a few weeks
ago if you don't remember those. Basically,

857
01:08:35.760 --> 01:08:45.239
there's some big old, big old
contributions on Act Blue, like big

858
01:08:45.279 --> 01:08:50.680
contributions and an individual's names who either
don't appear to be somebody who could afford

859
01:08:50.680 --> 01:08:57.119
those levels of contributions, or people
who when journalists went and talked to him

860
01:08:57.119 --> 01:09:00.720
outright said no, I didn't donate
that. But also we're very adamant that

861
01:09:00.760 --> 01:09:04.920
they do donate to the you know, the Act Blue kind of causes,

862
01:09:05.039 --> 01:09:08.880
just in much smaller amounts. So
that leads you to wonder We'll wait a

863
01:09:08.880 --> 01:09:14.000
second. Are they is it bad
accounting or are they intentionally trying to hide

864
01:09:14.119 --> 01:09:20.039
large infusions of money by claiming they
come from these individual donors, or as

865
01:09:20.079 --> 01:09:25.760
some would call it, a crime, some would even call it a large

866
01:09:25.800 --> 01:09:30.800
scale group commission of a crime.
Almost recoish. But we don't use that

867
01:09:30.920 --> 01:09:35.720
for anything nowadays. That was just
for the mob back in the day,

868
01:09:35.800 --> 01:09:40.800
so probably I don't have to worry
about that. But yeah, so we

869
01:09:40.920 --> 01:09:45.199
got you know, we're getting ready
to step into stupid and nowadays with all

870
01:09:45.239 --> 01:09:47.960
the cameras and people having their own, it's so easy to have a nest

871
01:09:48.039 --> 01:09:56.199
or a ring camera, and you
know, all the shenanigans that were almost

872
01:09:56.239 --> 01:10:00.359
anecdotal at Sunday are now there for
our eyeballs. Go see about social media

873
01:10:00.399 --> 01:10:05.199
and internet sluice can do their thing. Oh it's amazing. All right,

874
01:10:05.199 --> 01:10:09.800
so we'll talk a little more about
that. We've got some cancelations and a

875
01:10:09.960 --> 01:10:15.520
new twist on what your kids should
be learning in school from some of these

876
01:10:15.800 --> 01:10:45.319
really creepy teachers. Hang on,
all right, good morning, everybody,

877
01:10:45.600 --> 01:10:47.239
welcome, It is our number street. I knew this was gonna be a

878
01:10:47.239 --> 01:10:56.279
fun show. It has blown by
which I Welcome on a Monday. Welcome

879
01:10:56.279 --> 01:10:59.239
on a Monday. Stuff coming from
all. I got a bunch of stuff

880
01:10:59.239 --> 01:11:01.159
and I got to get to in
this last hour. I was mentioning you

881
01:11:01.359 --> 01:11:05.640
go watch the video. I just
I like watching this stuff. You know

882
01:11:05.720 --> 01:11:10.279
why, because it's in a way, it's kind of like an episode of

883
01:11:10.319 --> 01:11:14.239
a show where the Internet gets a
hole to some like a dog with a

884
01:11:14.319 --> 01:11:18.640
chew toy man and they just start
delving in. And for anyone who occasionally

885
01:11:18.680 --> 01:11:23.359
likes to go down a rabbit hole, it's like having people go down a

886
01:11:23.439 --> 01:11:28.720
rabbit hole for you. And that
emerged when a homeowner posted a video of

887
01:11:30.079 --> 01:11:32.600
a guy who's dressed his you know, a guy who's bicycling right with the

888
01:11:32.680 --> 01:11:36.359
tight shirt, the logos and the
shorts and the shoes and the helmet and

889
01:11:36.399 --> 01:11:43.960
everything daytime, coming through kicking his
Trump one sign on his yard. This

890
01:11:44.119 --> 01:11:50.960
is ib inside the belt Line Raleigh
area. And then days later, at

891
01:11:51.039 --> 01:11:56.399
like four something in the morning,
coming through and literally arsoning the sign.

892
01:11:57.279 --> 01:12:00.720
So there, you know, there's
there's shot from the homeowner's camera. You

893
01:12:00.760 --> 01:12:05.279
can kind of see the dude.
He's got some really distinct tattoos, like

894
01:12:05.520 --> 01:12:11.920
really distinct and the search was on
and people are like, I'll put some

895
01:12:11.960 --> 01:12:14.720
money towards that, and before you
knew it, there was eleven thousand dollars

896
01:12:14.800 --> 01:12:18.560
reward and Sluice took to it,
and I was just kind of watching this

897
01:12:18.560 --> 01:12:26.439
this go and they eventually some guy
figured out that somebody was uploading their bicycle

898
01:12:26.560 --> 01:12:30.279
routes on the very same app that
got some of our military guys in a

899
01:12:30.319 --> 01:12:34.319
little bit of hot water because their
fitness trackers, which map out where you

900
01:12:34.800 --> 01:12:40.319
run or bike or canoe or whatever, kayak, whatever your thing is,

901
01:12:41.199 --> 01:12:46.399
and it just so happened to show
corresponding with those cameras, an individual who

902
01:12:46.439 --> 01:12:51.720
in his photos has tattoos that looked
to be the same. Not just going

903
01:12:51.800 --> 01:12:56.720
by there, but you can see
when they stopped there because it logs that

904
01:12:56.800 --> 01:13:00.359
too. So in a way,
you're narking on yourself on the inner net.

905
01:13:00.039 --> 01:13:05.000
And so I was watching these stories
unfold a few articles locally here by

906
01:13:05.399 --> 01:13:11.560
Stephen Horne is the author of those
articles, and it's just one of those

907
01:13:11.640 --> 01:13:14.680
viral things. He's actually on the
phone, so we're gonna talk to him.

908
01:13:14.720 --> 01:13:16.239
So I was given that big build
up. Steven, how you doing

909
01:13:16.239 --> 01:13:23.920
this morning? Good? I'm good
sir, all right, So I had

910
01:13:24.239 --> 01:13:27.520
I don't know, I take Do
you remember do you remember the shy La

911
01:13:27.600 --> 01:13:30.159
buff flag thing where the Internet figured
out where he was flying that flag in

912
01:13:30.359 --> 01:13:35.920
Rule Tennessee or whatever. Yeah,
yeah, I'm a little bit aware of

913
01:13:35.920 --> 01:13:40.520
that, not too much though,
but but it is the it is the

914
01:13:40.560 --> 01:13:45.359
digital tattletale, the and the lengths
that the Internet's willing to go through.

915
01:13:45.439 --> 01:13:49.600
So how did you get a hold
of this story from the homeowner? Or

916
01:13:49.600 --> 01:13:53.399
did you just see it on Twitter
and you went out and decided this is

917
01:13:53.439 --> 01:13:57.279
something you wanted to cover. Yeah? Yeah, So I came across's video

918
01:13:57.359 --> 01:14:00.840
on Twitter. I would have had
about like a thousands and I was like,

919
01:14:00.920 --> 01:14:03.920
hey, you know, I'm I'm
always looking for stuff happening in the

920
01:14:03.960 --> 01:14:08.520
local area. And so I was
like, hey, you know John Kane,

921
01:14:10.399 --> 01:14:13.720
the you know, the name stuck
out to me a little bit because

922
01:14:14.399 --> 01:14:16.520
you know, I did a little
bit of coverage when he was running for

923
01:14:16.560 --> 01:14:24.640
the chair of the North Carolina jop
Convention this year. It's not the same

924
01:14:24.720 --> 01:14:27.960
John Kane though, the developer,
right, it's a different John Kane.

925
01:14:28.640 --> 01:14:31.000
I think it might be his son. I'm not don't care about that now,

926
01:14:31.520 --> 01:14:34.680
all right, I just want to
because people are like because the picture

927
01:14:34.760 --> 01:14:39.800
didn't comport with the age of the
individual. And I've actually met Yeah,

928
01:14:39.960 --> 01:14:43.479
it's not like seven year or eighty. I can tell you that. All

929
01:14:43.520 --> 01:14:45.640
right, all right, cool,
cool, So so you see this,

930
01:14:45.800 --> 01:14:48.760
yeah, and a little profile because
you're right in Greensboro. He was wanted

931
01:14:48.760 --> 01:14:54.439
to be party chair. And so
you get this thing and you put it

932
01:14:54.439 --> 01:14:59.960
forward and then a couple like Benny
Johnson and a few others, Tim Pool

933
01:15:00.520 --> 01:15:03.439
uh and others. They they they
proffer some money, right, and it

934
01:15:03.560 --> 01:15:08.960
was eleven thousand dollars, and the
internet went to work. Yeah, yeah,

935
01:15:09.039 --> 01:15:12.880
so I think I was Saturday morning
when it started to go viral with

936
01:15:13.079 --> 01:15:15.800
some yeah, some larger account chang
the video. I think, yeah,

937
01:15:15.880 --> 01:15:18.800
like Citizen Free Press was one of
the first. And you know, yeah,

938
01:15:18.840 --> 01:15:24.039
Tim Coole, Benny Johnson offered you
know, additional reward on top of

939
01:15:24.039 --> 01:15:31.079
the thousand dollars that Kane had offered
himself. What now, And so the

940
01:15:31.079 --> 01:15:35.000
the the smoking guns, so to
speak, because you did an updated article

941
01:15:35.039 --> 01:15:42.439
which we retweeted one. Those tattoos
look the same. Those are very distinctive

942
01:15:42.439 --> 01:15:46.239
tattoos, you would agree yeah.
Yeah, so it's like a pig tattoo

943
01:15:46.319 --> 01:15:50.760
on his enter armor, like a
ligne with some crosses, you know,

944
01:15:50.840 --> 01:15:56.359
not not exactly sure, that signifies
that pretty distinctive. Yeah, police love

945
01:15:56.399 --> 01:16:00.319
this stuff. And then we get
into this strack of stuff and we did

946
01:16:00.319 --> 01:16:03.319
the story on the show and you
mentioned it in your article where they were

947
01:16:03.319 --> 01:16:10.479
figuring out where like clandestine uh CIA
bases were based on. Some of our

948
01:16:10.520 --> 01:16:13.680
soldiers just wanted to stay in shape
and it was a little bit of a

949
01:16:13.760 --> 01:16:15.840
problem. But it shows you just
how much stuff is out there on the

950
01:16:15.840 --> 01:16:19.199
internet. Now, you're an investigative
reporter. Would that be a fair assessment

951
01:16:19.239 --> 01:16:23.960
of what your job title is.
Yeah. I like doing that. You

952
01:16:24.000 --> 01:16:27.439
know, I do some other journalism
stuff as well, but that's why my

953
01:16:27.640 --> 01:16:30.760
favorite stuff that I do is the
investigative stuff. How much fun is it

954
01:16:30.800 --> 01:16:34.800
in the digital age to dig into
that stuff considering that a lot of people

955
01:16:34.840 --> 01:16:42.039
don't realize how much they're leaving out
there. Yeah, I mean it can

956
01:16:42.119 --> 01:16:45.119
be be kind of fun, you
know, and you're you're poking around and

957
01:16:45.199 --> 01:16:48.720
stuff that most people don't realize it
out there, you know. Job,

958
01:16:48.800 --> 01:16:53.600
I think it's sort of interesting because
it's not like there, it's not like

959
01:16:53.640 --> 01:16:57.960
this data out there and people don't
realize that they're they're actively posting, you

960
01:16:58.000 --> 01:17:00.720
know, the route of their run
and they're out to go on. Now,

961
01:17:00.760 --> 01:17:03.239
maybe they don't realize how it could
be used negatively against them, but

962
01:17:03.359 --> 01:17:08.399
like they're they're explicitly getting this out
there because you know, they want to

963
01:17:08.039 --> 01:17:12.359
their pends be like, oh wow, you know he rode however many miles

964
01:17:12.399 --> 01:17:15.600
today, I'm gonna write that many
miles tomorrow. Yeah, Which, by

965
01:17:15.600 --> 01:17:19.520
the way, I like that aspect
of it because you know, with especially

966
01:17:19.560 --> 01:17:23.560
with people are trying to keep a
fitness routine, it's good to you know,

967
01:17:23.600 --> 01:17:26.760
some people have workout buddies or you
got friends and you want to you

968
01:17:26.800 --> 01:17:30.039
want to keep people motivated, and
like, I like the competitive nature of

969
01:17:30.079 --> 01:17:35.560
that. But the downside is that
this stuff exists and it's out there,

970
01:17:35.680 --> 01:17:41.720
and people don't realize how quickly your
data can also be used to determine you

971
01:17:42.479 --> 01:17:45.680
might have done something in the case
of like the Google searches that we see

972
01:17:45.720 --> 01:17:51.479
in some of these stories where people
are googling some really specific stuff when their

973
01:17:53.000 --> 01:17:57.960
wife goes missing, and what are
police supposed to think? So let me

974
01:17:58.000 --> 01:18:00.760
ask you this just because I have
you on the phone here quick. Was

975
01:18:00.800 --> 01:18:05.279
that you doing the interview with those
Act Blue donors in those videos that I

976
01:18:05.279 --> 01:18:11.279
saw? All right? I love
me? All right. So there's a

977
01:18:11.359 --> 01:18:15.119
video you did and you're talking to
this guy. He's elderly, gentleman,

978
01:18:15.239 --> 01:18:18.680
he's on a fixed income. These
are his words, and you're you're talking

979
01:18:18.680 --> 01:18:21.399
about donations he made and the little
ones. He's like, yeah, I

980
01:18:21.479 --> 01:18:26.159
might have made that fifty dollars for
this pack, fifty dollars for that pack.

981
01:18:26.560 --> 01:18:30.079
And at one point you bring up
a fifteen thousand dollars donation. I

982
01:18:30.159 --> 01:18:33.479
believe it was to Act Blue.
That was the total of donations. Oh

983
01:18:33.640 --> 01:18:39.760
Act Blue during that two year period, the one singular donation. But in

984
01:18:39.800 --> 01:18:43.720
your mind, and judging from what
I saw, this guy is unabashedly a

985
01:18:43.720 --> 01:18:48.439
Democratic donor, right he is,
for sure. And and but when you

986
01:18:48.520 --> 01:18:51.920
hit him with that number, he
was like, yeah, there's no way

987
01:18:53.000 --> 01:18:57.119
I donated fifteen thousand dollars. And
some people are saying, well, you

988
01:18:57.159 --> 01:18:59.680
know, it's like you ever gone
out and you spent too much money when

989
01:18:59.720 --> 01:19:02.319
you were with your friends, you
know, partying or whatever. This is

990
01:19:02.359 --> 01:19:09.359
not that. This is way in
excess of what this guy probably felt that

991
01:19:09.399 --> 01:19:14.000
he spent whatever happened with that,
because he wasn't the only one. You

992
01:19:14.039 --> 01:19:17.199
talked to a few different people,
because it really looks like either there's some

993
01:19:17.239 --> 01:19:24.279
bad accounting going on or perhaps shenanigans, as they say, yeah, I

994
01:19:24.319 --> 01:19:27.800
mean, I haven't really heard of
anything happening. You know. This was

995
01:19:28.000 --> 01:19:32.239
that inspired by investations that O'Keefe media
group with James o'keefer was doing across the

996
01:19:32.279 --> 01:19:40.000
country. So, as I note
in my story at the time, I

997
01:19:40.039 --> 01:19:45.720
believe it was Marco Rubio and Matt
Gates who had filed legislation and Congress sort

998
01:19:45.760 --> 01:19:50.119
of relating to trying to resolve some
of us requiring sort of an actual air

999
01:19:50.239 --> 01:19:57.640
of security when credit cards are being
used for online donations to ensure that you

1000
01:19:57.640 --> 01:20:00.439
know, the name being given for
that VC record match the name on the

1001
01:20:00.520 --> 01:20:06.199
card or whatnot. I haven't really
heard any update or any other investigations by

1002
01:20:06.279 --> 01:20:12.199
the actual authorities into that. Okay, And we're not we're not talking about

1003
01:20:12.279 --> 01:20:15.880
campaign donations and individual candidates, which
have federal limits. We're talking about larger

1004
01:20:15.920 --> 01:20:20.720
donations. So I guess the act. Yeah, the pack, So the

1005
01:20:20.760 --> 01:20:26.399
accusation is there are people and we
don't know, but there are people who

1006
01:20:26.439 --> 01:20:30.760
are either trying to disguise large scale
donations either by people who I guess in

1007
01:20:30.800 --> 01:20:34.920
America who don't want that out there. But the other thing is obviously groups

1008
01:20:35.000 --> 01:20:41.800
from outside the US who may want
to donate who may not be able to

1009
01:20:42.680 --> 01:20:47.119
make other types of contributions, but
also the candidate or the party doesn't want

1010
01:20:47.159 --> 01:20:51.720
that associated. It's just about confusing
where it's coming from. And unfortunately you

1011
01:20:51.800 --> 01:20:57.600
got to lay it off on somebody, and these donors acted like they had

1012
01:20:57.640 --> 01:21:01.880
no idea what you were talking about. So yeah, that's a million dollar

1013
01:21:02.039 --> 01:21:05.279
question, is if the money isn't
coming from this donor, where is the

1014
01:21:05.319 --> 01:21:10.399
money coming from? And why are
they trying to hide that? Yeah?

1015
01:21:10.399 --> 01:21:15.520
What's your you gotta what's your sub
stack? You are ill? You can

1016
01:21:15.560 --> 01:21:18.920
go to this week in the Triangle
dot com, all right, and you

1017
01:21:19.039 --> 01:21:21.520
got stuff on there. We got
a bunch of listeners in the Triad too,

1018
01:21:21.520 --> 01:21:25.399
so maybe you have to go over
and super sluice some stuff there too.

1019
01:21:25.439 --> 01:21:29.880
So but I appreciate you calling in
man because I thank you. I

1020
01:21:29.920 --> 01:21:32.079
got a good laugh out of the
story yesterday. All right, that's uh,

1021
01:21:32.119 --> 01:21:34.640
we'll put him on holder. What

1035
01:22:46.560 --> 01:22:53.239
we appreciate it so definitely. By
my buddy. We cycle a lot.

1036
01:22:53.359 --> 01:22:57.319
He's a he's pretty wealth. He's
a lawyer. Got some nice rides at

1037
01:22:57.399 --> 01:23:04.000
fifteen grand plus and they followed his
Strava to his address and nails him one

1038
01:23:04.119 --> 01:23:11.039
night. And you now can hide
your start and endpoint on Strava. Before

1039
01:23:11.119 --> 01:23:13.319
you couldn't and you had to think
about it. You know, I better

1040
01:23:13.359 --> 01:23:16.479
start my Strava about a block away. So, yeah, your refo's out

1041
01:23:16.479 --> 01:23:19.880
there and you don't even think about
it. Yeah, especially the part where

1042
01:23:19.920 --> 01:23:25.399
you can see you can where you
stop right, it literally tells you how

1043
01:23:25.399 --> 01:23:28.399
long you stop too. I mean
it's more than just a map, it's

1044
01:23:28.520 --> 01:23:31.960
it's a lot of deep Yeah,
we put out there. So it stopped

1045
01:23:31.960 --> 01:23:35.000
at my last crash too. Yeah, so why did you Why did your

1046
01:23:35.079 --> 01:23:39.159
lawyer now explain this to me?
You say they got him? Why did

1047
01:23:39.199 --> 01:23:45.399
he hide it? Was? It
was he didn't That was before the app

1048
01:23:45.920 --> 01:23:47.880
had that feature on it. And
uh, you know, you don't even

1049
01:23:47.920 --> 01:23:50.039
think about it. You leave out
of your house to go to a ride

1050
01:23:50.920 --> 01:23:58.399
and there's your start point. Yeah
yeah, but but but what happened?

1051
01:23:58.760 --> 01:24:01.119
What happened your buddy though you mentioned
the bike, does somebody steal his bike?

1052
01:24:01.199 --> 01:24:03.640
Oh? Oh, a bunch of
bikes? Well yeah, he is

1053
01:24:03.640 --> 01:24:08.920
a Quiver and uh they're all very
nice custom bottom custom, and yeah they

1054
01:24:09.000 --> 01:24:12.159
nailed him for a few bikes.
Oh no, that makes so they were

1055
01:24:12.279 --> 01:24:14.800
so people would look at the app, they look at the pictures of these

1056
01:24:14.800 --> 01:24:17.000
bikes. I saw somebody looked up
the bike in this story we were doing.

1057
01:24:17.039 --> 01:24:19.880
It was like seven grand I can't
imagine. But hey, if you're

1058
01:24:19.880 --> 01:24:23.439
into it, you're into it.
What I spend money on stupid stuff?

1059
01:24:23.479 --> 01:24:28.840
I'm into but ups that boy.
Yeah, I probably past that woos boy

1060
01:24:28.920 --> 01:24:32.720
every day. But yeah, exactly, It's like, but so, spend

1061
01:24:32.720 --> 01:24:34.760
your money how you want. But
I could see if you're a thief,

1062
01:24:34.800 --> 01:24:38.319
you're look, you're sitting there and
you're looking at some of these bikes at

1063
01:24:38.479 --> 01:24:41.920
you know, ten thousand dollars or
seven thousand or fifteen or whatever it is,

1064
01:24:42.600 --> 01:24:46.319
and now guys telling you where it's
stored. Ye know, criminals are

1065
01:24:46.319 --> 01:24:48.720
crafty. Man. Yeah, I
could see that would be a problem.

1066
01:24:48.760 --> 01:24:54.359
So I understand why people would want
to make that adjustment and the app would

1067
01:24:54.399 --> 01:24:58.000
have to adjust. Apparently this dude
didn't get the memo on, you know,

1068
01:24:58.159 --> 01:25:01.800
on the Crime Commission part of it, potentially allegedly, so I probably

1069
01:25:01.840 --> 01:25:09.600
listened belt that's why that's from my
house is. Oh I'm sorry, I'm

1070
01:25:09.600 --> 01:25:12.199
sorry, are you except for something? I just don't tell anyone what I

1071
01:25:12.239 --> 01:25:14.640
do, all right, So I
have a good one, all right.

1072
01:25:16.199 --> 01:25:20.880
It's very moonbatty in there. Uh
a little bit, a little bit,

1073
01:25:21.079 --> 01:25:29.640
all right, I gotta hit this. I simultaneously feel bad for this guy

1074
01:25:30.039 --> 01:25:32.600
because his son is the one who
put him on on on, but it

1075
01:25:32.720 --> 01:25:36.600
send and put him on to blast
him, but it's turned into a whole

1076
01:25:36.600 --> 01:25:41.640
thing. The other thing over the
weekend was that I was watching this actually

1077
01:25:41.720 --> 01:25:45.119
dates back to last week, but
I didn't see it till this weekend.

1078
01:25:45.840 --> 01:25:53.239
Is there's a guy who posted a
series of family chats. So there's you

1079
01:25:53.279 --> 01:25:56.960
know, like iPhone chats, they
have one where the whole family's on there.

1080
01:25:57.000 --> 01:26:00.079
I'm sure a lot of you have
a family thread as well. And

1081
01:26:00.960 --> 01:26:05.159
it was his dad, who's fifty
nine, had went and seen the Barbie

1082
01:26:05.159 --> 01:26:11.079
movie and did a review. He
wrote like a whole review and it was

1083
01:26:11.119 --> 01:26:13.920
just supposed to be for the family, but his kid decided, hey,

1084
01:26:13.960 --> 01:26:19.239
I'm gonna put this online and it
went viral like that because dad really liked

1085
01:26:19.239 --> 01:26:24.640
the Barbie movie. But he made
a couple of pretty bold statements in there.

1086
01:26:25.079 --> 01:26:30.359
Now, this guy's from New York. It does read as though there's

1087
01:26:30.399 --> 01:26:32.520
probably some blue politics there. But
I just want to read part of this

1088
01:26:32.640 --> 01:26:38.800
to you because I look, his
kid posted there. He didn't post it

1089
01:26:38.800 --> 01:26:41.600
on the internet. I think people
should probably not be trying to hunt this

1090
01:26:41.680 --> 01:26:45.239
dude down. But it's funny,
he said. Quote. Barbie takes on

1091
01:26:45.279 --> 01:26:51.199
the patriarchy with surgical precision. She
even takes down the greatest movie of all

1092
01:26:51.359 --> 01:26:58.479
time, The Godfather, as a
movie men feel compelled to man explain to

1093
01:26:58.600 --> 01:27:03.479
women. Here Barbie is saying,
step aside Godfather, there is now something

1094
01:27:03.600 --> 01:27:09.399
newer, bigger, and much more
profound and important to talk about. Yeah,

1095
01:27:10.199 --> 01:27:15.840
what what I mean? One of
my favorite bosses ever? It was

1096
01:27:15.880 --> 01:27:19.479
a female and that's one of her
favorite movies. So Barbie, no The

1097
01:27:19.520 --> 01:27:25.239
Godfather? Oh but has she heard
of Barbie? I believe she has.

1098
01:27:25.359 --> 01:27:28.000
Yes, is the one I'm thinking
of? It probably is, yeah,

1099
01:27:29.079 --> 01:27:32.199
yeah, yeah, yeah, I
bet she's heard of Barbie because she,

1100
01:27:32.279 --> 01:27:39.079
you know, works in this industry. So so, Roster, you're gonna

1101
01:27:39.079 --> 01:27:42.840
adjust your list because you're what Godfather
won two? And then Joe Dirt right

1102
01:27:42.920 --> 01:27:45.800
corruptly right, not necessarily in that
order, but yes, So now what

1103
01:27:45.920 --> 01:27:49.520
Joe Dirt. Make it kicks,
right, because if it's better than Godfather,

1104
01:27:49.600 --> 01:27:53.199
there's no way the Barbie movie is
better than Joe Dirt. Come on,

1105
01:27:53.279 --> 01:27:57.199
Joe Dirt's dropping the four. No
more medals, no medals for Joe.

1106
01:27:58.560 --> 01:28:04.600
Gotta see it anyway, We'll be
back. Thank you. Is f

1107
01:28:05.279 --> 01:28:10.840
w PTI in the Triad and one
oh six one FM talk in the Triangle,

1108
01:28:14.520 --> 01:28:18.880
all right, eight thirty six casey
O day radio program Man. What

1109
01:28:19.000 --> 01:28:21.760
a day? What a day?
What a day? What a day is

1110
01:28:21.760 --> 01:28:24.840
gonna be when they get ahold of
your kids too? By the way,

1111
01:28:26.840 --> 01:28:31.119
man, so I was reading this, this is bonkers. Ross gets your

1112
01:28:31.359 --> 01:28:34.640
search engine ready. I'm gonna have
to have you research some stuff because I

1113
01:28:34.640 --> 01:28:41.920
didn't want to look it up logging
under Kyle or something. Probably what you

1114
01:28:41.920 --> 01:28:46.920
should do, all right. So
a teacher, an instructor, however you

1115
01:28:46.960 --> 01:28:54.640
want to describe it, who was
initially at a very high profile school in

1116
01:28:54.640 --> 01:29:03.079
New York called the Dalton School,
which is yeah, big deal, was

1117
01:29:03.119 --> 01:29:10.039
holding some really creepy like sex head
stuff in there and handing out stuff to

1118
01:29:10.119 --> 01:29:15.840
kids and irritated even enough really rich
moonbats to finally get eighty six has emerged

1119
01:29:15.880 --> 01:29:24.720
now with a group that is putting
together porn literacy curriculum for schools and getting

1120
01:29:24.760 --> 01:29:28.560
a lot of a lot of volunteers
where schools were like yeah no, as

1121
01:29:28.600 --> 01:29:31.359
part of our sex head training,
what we need is we need adults to

1122
01:29:31.439 --> 01:29:38.960
come into children and explain pornography to
them. That don't get me wrong with

1123
01:29:39.039 --> 01:29:45.000
the advent of the internet, as
a parent is looking to what kind of

1124
01:29:45.039 --> 01:29:49.279
information and discussion they're going to have
with the child, it is a separate

1125
01:29:49.359 --> 01:29:54.840
deal. No longer are the days
of if kids want to get ahold of

1126
01:29:54.840 --> 01:30:00.359
that stuff, they got to find
dad's magazines hidden somewhere, or you know,

1127
01:30:00.439 --> 01:30:03.079
sneak a peek in the secret room
of the video store. Now it's

1128
01:30:03.119 --> 01:30:11.039
out there, man, it's out
there. And so I understand from an

1129
01:30:11.159 --> 01:30:15.199
educational component, it just falls in
line with a lot of other stuff where

1130
01:30:15.199 --> 01:30:18.279
people are like, well, you
know, maybe this is a conversation better

1131
01:30:18.319 --> 01:30:24.840
for parents, But when you start
getting into the intricacies of adult material like

1132
01:30:24.960 --> 01:30:30.520
that, there are there are understandable
nuances. And I think one of the

1133
01:30:30.520 --> 01:30:35.760
big things that people would say that
should be communicated when it is appropriate time

1134
01:30:35.800 --> 01:30:45.479
to communicate it is that that's not
necessarily real life. Okay, that's not

1135
01:30:45.840 --> 01:30:49.319
that's not what you should be striving
for. And I understand that. However,

1136
01:30:49.760 --> 01:30:56.560
putting together these giant curriculums, which
is now this woman's grift and charging

1137
01:30:57.399 --> 01:31:01.279
forty forty some thousand for it,
uh, and schools signing up, she

1138
01:31:01.439 --> 01:31:06.039
got fired into a much better life. And it's really creepy. Some audio

1139
01:31:06.079 --> 01:31:11.920
emerged of her and some of her
folks talking about the and this is the

1140
01:31:11.920 --> 01:31:15.600
softer version, talking about exactly what
they're wanting to communicate to kids and why

1141
01:31:15.640 --> 01:31:19.159
they think it should and uh,
judgment by that video, I don't if

1142
01:31:19.199 --> 01:31:23.359
I had a kid, I wouldn't
want any of these people near my dude.

1143
01:31:23.359 --> 01:31:27.079
I agree, right, Like when
you watch the video, like they's

1144
01:31:27.279 --> 01:31:30.840
especially the one person in the video, the dude is a creeper. They're

1145
01:31:30.840 --> 01:31:32.760
doing the Southwest. Yeah, uh
uh huh. Yeah. I don't want

1146
01:31:32.760 --> 01:31:34.760
to I don't want to talk to
if I had a kid, I don't

1147
01:31:34.760 --> 01:31:38.119
want to talk to about anything.
And I'm watching it because you know,

1148
01:31:38.159 --> 01:31:40.600
I loaded the audio there and I'm
watching the video. I'm like, you're

1149
01:31:40.640 --> 01:31:43.119
telling me that one person in this
video was like, hey, this is

1150
01:31:43.239 --> 01:31:48.159
kind of weird. They're all leaned
in forward, like, yeah, let's

1151
01:31:48.159 --> 01:31:51.680
do this. That dude is really
leaned in forward. Do you think he's

1152
01:31:51.720 --> 01:32:00.880
there just a hook up with the
other three? Un me? I don't

1153
01:32:00.920 --> 01:32:03.720
think. I'm sorry put you in
this position. Yeah, I don't.

1154
01:32:03.720 --> 01:32:08.920
I knew what I was doing.
I don't think you'd be interested. Oh

1155
01:32:09.079 --> 01:32:10.800
right, that's so weird. All
right, all right, all right,

1156
01:32:10.840 --> 01:32:14.840
well hold on, let's play the
audio. Here we go. Oh wait,

1157
01:32:14.840 --> 01:32:16.359
hold on not hearing it? All
right, let me try again.

1158
01:32:16.399 --> 01:32:23.199
Here we go. But I I
agree. I think porn literacy works in

1159
01:32:23.239 --> 01:32:26.119
a very similar way as media literacy. And I do have to give a

1160
01:32:26.119 --> 01:32:30.439
shout out to doctor Bianco Laudana because
she also taught me a lot about what

1161
01:32:30.520 --> 01:32:38.039
I do know about porn literacy.
I think it's a great tool. They,

1162
01:32:38.399 --> 01:32:41.520
you know, Corey and Justin touched
on the five core concepts and the

1163
01:32:41.560 --> 01:32:45.439
five key questions that. By the
way, whatever that audio is, the

1164
01:32:45.479 --> 01:32:51.000
slushy sound on it just it makes
it extra creepy. It's just people really

1165
01:32:51.039 --> 01:32:55.800
a tubid thing going on or what's
happening here? I don't know that was

1166
01:32:56.119 --> 01:32:59.760
that was something I'm thinking of.
But remember she got fired literally for doing

1167
01:32:59.760 --> 01:33:02.560
a course on tubiting. That's what
you got fired and that was the course.

1168
01:33:03.039 --> 01:33:08.520
Yes, so it's funny you should
reference that. All right, let's

1169
01:33:08.520 --> 01:33:12.800
continue That are a part of media
literacy and understanding who created this message,

1170
01:33:12.840 --> 01:33:15.840
why was it created, what are
the messages that are being set, and

1171
01:33:16.039 --> 01:33:20.760
what it allows young people to do
and adults alike, to be honest,

1172
01:33:21.880 --> 01:33:28.079
is it helps us kind of critically
examine and makes sense that the sexualized images

1173
01:33:28.159 --> 01:33:32.239
that we are seeing are coming across. So it's the basic understanding that whether

1174
01:33:32.319 --> 01:33:39.319
or not you're seeking out pornography on
purpose or completely by accident, understanding that

1175
01:33:39.359 --> 01:33:42.920
it does have a message, and
this message can affect the way that you

1176
01:33:43.079 --> 01:33:46.840
feel about yourselves or your others,
or your relationship with sex and sexuality.

1177
01:33:48.520 --> 01:33:54.560
And so the main goal of porn
literacy is really for people to critique what

1178
01:33:54.600 --> 01:33:59.640
they are consuming and to construct their
own meanings from the content, rather than

1179
01:33:59.720 --> 01:34:02.520
just being affected by it. Right, So it's kind of like creating a

1180
01:34:02.560 --> 01:34:09.880
toolbox before you are affected by any
sort of media. Poor literacy, of

1181
01:34:09.880 --> 01:34:14.840
course, is more focused on sexualized
right. Okay, all right, slashy

1182
01:34:14.920 --> 01:34:24.239
sound look creepy. There's a there's
a hint of I understand. I understand

1183
01:34:24.279 --> 01:34:30.479
the perspective of maybe parents out there
want to know how exactly do I talk

1184
01:34:30.479 --> 01:34:33.920
to my kid about things that they
may see on the internet. Right,

1185
01:34:34.359 --> 01:34:39.520
And everyone's gonna have to come to
that formulation. But I want to be

1186
01:34:39.600 --> 01:34:43.680
clear when you get into the slide
show and the curriculum that this woman's pushing.

1187
01:34:44.960 --> 01:34:49.640
This is not stuff you happened onto
these kids. And I'll get into

1188
01:34:49.920 --> 01:34:55.119
what I can. There's gonna be
a lot of stuff. There's stuff here

1189
01:34:55.199 --> 01:35:00.039
I've never heard of. Get what
I'm saying. So now this is it

1190
01:35:00.399 --> 01:35:03.840
feels almost promotion e And that's where
parents lose their mind. And some school

1191
01:35:03.840 --> 01:35:06.680
districts there in New York have already
hired this woman to come in and do

1192
01:35:06.760 --> 01:35:11.640
this class, and parents are like, what the hell's going on? Because

1193
01:35:11.640 --> 01:35:15.279
it's more than just the tube and
stuff where he thought his camera was off.

1194
01:35:15.359 --> 01:35:17.880
Some of his colleagues are kind of
hot. He's watching Tentacle whatever because

1195
01:35:17.960 --> 01:35:23.680
that other guys sent it to I
don't know, but this is more than

1196
01:35:23.760 --> 01:35:28.119
that. And sometimes and she's talking
about, well, what's the message being

1197
01:35:28.119 --> 01:35:32.800
conveyed here? Sometimes it's just porn, you know what I mean? There's

1198
01:35:32.840 --> 01:35:40.960
not some deeper understanding. This is
a slide show. We need to let

1199
01:35:41.039 --> 01:35:45.439
you know a class. This isn't
really how a pawn shop works. No,

1200
01:35:45.000 --> 01:35:48.399
so like just goes slide to slide
in the most popular light. What

1201
01:35:48.399 --> 01:35:53.840
are you doing stopped? What if? What if I hire a realist?

1202
01:35:53.960 --> 01:35:57.079
Or if I want to go view
a house? How does that work?

1203
01:35:58.000 --> 01:36:04.159
And I show up and there's a
smoke female agent? Right? I I

1204
01:36:04.279 --> 01:36:08.399
have to think like people are aware, ay, and look, kids aren't

1205
01:36:08.439 --> 01:36:11.800
dumb. Don't get me wrong.
There's still some stuff in there that obviously

1206
01:36:11.920 --> 01:36:15.760
is corruptible. And really the bigger
I think corruptible side of it is the

1207
01:36:16.840 --> 01:36:21.600
idea that people feel that that is, you know, in the from a

1208
01:36:21.640 --> 01:36:28.640
generational standpoint where being online and every
you know, I want to be an

1209
01:36:28.680 --> 01:36:31.399
influencer, I want to be a
YouTuber, I want to be whatever that

1210
01:36:31.560 --> 01:36:36.439
one of the past out there.
That's a road to easy money for people.

1211
01:36:36.520 --> 01:36:41.720
Maybe Hey, you turned eighteen and
now you're the catch me outside girl

1212
01:36:41.760 --> 01:36:45.319
and you just made a million dollars
And that's that's a very hard allure that's

1213
01:36:45.319 --> 01:36:49.560
out there. And that's and that's
why it's important that parents discuss. It's

1214
01:36:49.560 --> 01:36:55.039
the problem is, I don't think
they're discussing this from a perspective of trying

1215
01:36:55.039 --> 01:37:00.840
to explain the part where who is
the actress the porn actress who quit and

1216
01:37:01.399 --> 01:37:05.279
I can't remember her name, but
she was She did a very very in

1217
01:37:05.399 --> 01:37:12.920
depth interview and she talked about Miya
Khalifa. Nah wasn't her? I was

1218
01:37:12.960 --> 01:37:17.880
thinking that, But was Riley something
or Riley She did an interview. She

1219
01:37:17.960 --> 01:37:23.000
was very Riley Reid. She was
really popular, and then she didn't interview

1220
01:37:23.039 --> 01:37:25.920
and she's just like, none of
my family talks to me. Oh yeah,

1221
01:37:25.920 --> 01:37:28.640
but she's still an only fans,
right, yeah, well yes,

1222
01:37:28.920 --> 01:37:30.520
but she'll say one thing in the
interview and she'll cry and sob and then

1223
01:37:30.520 --> 01:37:33.520
she'll leave the link for her only
fans. Well, I think she I

1224
01:37:33.520 --> 01:37:38.560
think the deal was she quit and
then she was like, oh, oh,

1225
01:37:38.720 --> 01:37:41.600
money's not coming in, and then
went back to it. But by

1226
01:37:41.640 --> 01:37:44.279
then she was already all in it. But I think she was being pretty

1227
01:37:44.279 --> 01:37:45.359
honest. And there she's like,
none of my family talks to me,

1228
01:37:46.399 --> 01:37:54.720
and relationships like there's no there's no
venue or there's no boundaries what that should

1229
01:37:54.760 --> 01:37:58.920
look like? And and I'm sure
they're not in this I'll give you a

1230
01:37:58.960 --> 01:38:01.319
little more of what they are wanting
to teach the kids. But understand this

1231
01:38:01.399 --> 01:38:05.199
is the stuff being pushed off real
quick though. Racet Agac, let's chat

1232
01:38:05.239 --> 01:38:10.159
with him for a moment, and
well, we're doing okay. California is

1233
01:38:10.159 --> 01:38:13.640
doing their thing. They're getting a
lot of rain here. You're gonna wish

1234
01:38:13.680 --> 01:38:17.079
it was raining because it'll stop your
skin from bursting into flat Yeah, lots

1235
01:38:17.119 --> 01:38:20.520
of sudden screen for heading out.
Mid upper nineties. Next couple of days

1236
01:38:20.560 --> 01:38:24.840
may stay in the low nineties,
try a west end of the mountains,

1237
01:38:24.880 --> 01:38:27.880
but a couple of hot ones.
We'll get a little dip in temperatures.

1238
01:38:27.960 --> 01:38:30.439
Wednesday, we'll back down into the
mid eighties, but starting that slow climb

1239
01:38:30.520 --> 01:38:33.960
again by Thursday, back up close
to ninety. Then maybe the mid nupper

1240
01:38:34.039 --> 01:38:39.039
nineties. Returning for Friday and Saturday. It's not until later in the weekend

1241
01:38:39.039 --> 01:38:42.640
we may see a cool off which
may continue longer term into next week.

1242
01:38:42.760 --> 01:38:46.720
So hot week for the most part, most days above ninety degrees except Wednesday,

1243
01:38:46.920 --> 01:38:49.680
and then I think again by Sunday
those numbers will start coming down.

1244
01:38:50.119 --> 01:38:57.199
And speaking of Hillary, now,
a post tropical cyclone, the tropical Atlantics

1245
01:38:57.239 --> 01:39:00.960
on fire right now. There are
one two renamed tropical storms. None of

1246
01:39:00.960 --> 01:39:04.479
them are forecast to come in and
get close to the US mainland. There's

1247
01:39:05.079 --> 01:39:09.479
an invest area in the Gulf of
Mexico heading towards Texas. It actually has

1248
01:39:09.479 --> 01:39:14.000
an eighty percent chance of developing.
And with the three storms I think Gert,

1249
01:39:14.039 --> 01:39:16.159
Franklin and Emily out in the Atlantic, we would be on the h

1250
01:39:16.159 --> 01:39:20.640
storm and that could be Harold trying
to form in the Gulf of Mexico and

1251
01:39:20.680 --> 01:39:25.560
to be good news for South Texas
because it stays weak. But believe it

1252
01:39:25.640 --> 01:39:29.800
or not, with all those names
storms in the Atlantic case right now,

1253
01:39:29.840 --> 01:39:33.960
it looks like none of those three
are going to head close enough to the

1254
01:39:34.039 --> 01:39:38.600
US mainland to make any significant impacts, if any at all. So quite

1255
01:39:38.640 --> 01:39:42.439
amazing. Okay, all right,
thank you, sir. Chat tomorrow with

1256
01:39:42.479 --> 01:39:44.640
you. Yeah, sounds good.
All right, we'll come back. Jeff

1257
01:39:44.680 --> 01:40:00.399
Bellinger's next hang on, This is
one FM talk in the Triangle and AI

1258
01:40:00.640 --> 01:40:04.880
can the Triad alright, A fifty
three Bloomberg update now, Jeff Ballinger,

1259
01:40:05.199 --> 01:40:09.079
what's going on? Well, good
morning, Case. It's been a rough

1260
01:40:09.159 --> 01:40:12.840
stretch for Wall Street three, losing
weeks in a row. This is the

1261
01:40:12.880 --> 01:40:16.359
worst streak since February. Futures all
pointing a little bit higher this morning.

1262
01:40:16.640 --> 01:40:20.520
We'll see if we can rebound some
the Dow futures or up sixty points.

1263
01:40:20.600 --> 01:40:25.960
At the moment, investors are anxious
to hear what Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell

1264
01:40:26.039 --> 01:40:30.159
will say when he speaks at a
FED symposium in Jackson, holl on Friday.

1265
01:40:30.359 --> 01:40:33.520
Reports on home sales and durable goods
orders, and the release of quarterly

1266
01:40:33.560 --> 01:40:39.239
results from Nvidia, Lowe's, Macy's, Gap, and Peloton will get attention

1267
01:40:39.279 --> 01:40:44.000
in the days leading up to that
speech. Business economists are feeling more confident.

1268
01:40:44.119 --> 01:40:49.119
Nearly seventy percent of the experts survey
by the National Association for Business Economics

1269
01:40:49.119 --> 01:40:54.600
are at least somewhat optimistic that the
FED can get inflation down to two percent

1270
01:40:54.880 --> 01:41:00.840
without causing a recession. American Airlines
taking the travel website skip lag to court.

1271
01:41:00.920 --> 01:41:04.359
The carrier says skip lagged is not
authorized to sell tickets for its flights,

1272
01:41:04.600 --> 01:41:10.319
and it is deceiving customers with claims
that it uses loopholes and ticket pricing

1273
01:41:10.560 --> 01:41:15.359
so it can offer lower fares.
Meta Platforms reportedly is set to turn up

1274
01:41:15.399 --> 01:41:19.840
the competitive heat on Elon Musk's ex
messaging platform. The Wall Street Journal says

1275
01:41:19.920 --> 01:41:26.399
Meta will launch a web version of
its Threads microblogging app. New service being

1276
01:41:26.399 --> 01:41:30.960
introduced by career Builder with pay per
resume. Companies looking to fill openings will

1277
01:41:31.000 --> 01:41:35.560
be charged only for the resumes they
use. Career Builder doesn't say how much

1278
01:41:35.600 --> 01:41:41.159
it will charge for each resume.
And Casey, the newest thing from Dominoes

1279
01:41:41.319 --> 01:41:47.319
is pepperoni stuffed cheesy breads, available
nationwide starting today. Casey, So it's

1280
01:41:47.319 --> 01:41:50.720
pizza, I can assume because I
remember, like the stuff crust, they

1281
01:41:50.760 --> 01:41:55.199
had a trademark on and somebody tried
to do it and they follow a lawsuit.

1282
01:41:55.840 --> 01:41:59.640
So now that it's cheesy bread,
it doesn't counter or what, well,

1283
01:41:59.640 --> 01:42:01.319
the chie it's not the cheesy bread
is not part of a pizza,

1284
01:42:01.399 --> 01:42:05.279
so it probably doesn't count. Yeah, like they found a loophole. All

1285
01:42:05.359 --> 01:42:08.880
right, Well, I'll probably still
sue each other because that's what they do.

1286
01:42:08.960 --> 01:42:12.960
So the pizza wars have begun,
thank you? Okay, A yeah,

1287
01:42:13.000 --> 01:42:15.319
I have a good one, all
right, pizza wars. ROSSI ready

1288
01:42:15.319 --> 01:42:19.560
for pizza wars. I'm good with
pizza wars. Let them sue each other.

1289
01:42:19.800 --> 01:42:26.079
What's the best delivery pizza of the
chains in the Hayes household? Probably

1290
01:42:26.119 --> 01:42:32.359
Marcos. Like Marcos, it's pretty
good. M I mean, I'd get

1291
01:42:32.399 --> 01:42:35.439
down with some stuff crust. Don't
get me wrong. I do think when

1292
01:42:35.439 --> 01:42:39.079
Dominoes did their thing where like we're
gonna get better, they did get a

1293
01:42:39.079 --> 01:42:43.439
little better. But you know,
the garlic sauce with the Papa John's is

1294
01:42:43.439 --> 01:42:46.399
pretty good. I don't know,
it's it comes down to do they cook

1295
01:42:46.439 --> 01:42:49.640
it right and what's on there?
Jets I like Jet pizza, that's pretty

1296
01:42:49.640 --> 01:42:54.000
good. Some people think it's weird
because the way they do the toppings.

1297
01:42:54.279 --> 01:42:57.720
I don't know. We got choices, but I'm talking about the chains.

1298
01:42:57.760 --> 01:43:02.479
There's some smaller ones that I would
I am more inclined to go to personally,

1299
01:43:02.600 --> 01:43:06.239
But if you've got to do the
chains, some good choices, all

1300
01:43:06.279 --> 01:43:09.960
right. Anyway, back to these
pervs you want to get into your kids

1301
01:43:10.199 --> 01:43:12.960
classroom just to show, you know, they just want to send a message

1302
01:43:13.000 --> 01:43:15.600
that you know, you may see
some stuff on the Internet and that's not

1303
01:43:15.640 --> 01:43:20.239
how real life is, which is
true. But also this isn't necessarily debate

1304
01:43:20.279 --> 01:43:25.800
about that. It's a debate about
who should be doing that. The problem

1305
01:43:25.880 --> 01:43:29.239
is when you get into the slide
show, it's about a lot more than

1306
01:43:29.319 --> 01:43:32.800
that, and there's like there's a
whole aspect on social justice in there.

1307
01:43:33.720 --> 01:43:38.439
Especially. I'm going to try to
be as delicate as possible, but basically

1308
01:43:39.399 --> 01:43:44.920
when it comes to adult kind of
stuff on the internet, there is it

1309
01:43:45.359 --> 01:43:53.279
seems to be more around the mail
experience and that he's having a good time

1310
01:43:53.319 --> 01:43:57.800
if you know what I mean,
and that, and so they have a

1311
01:43:57.800 --> 01:44:01.239
whole thing there about how it's you
know, the patriarchy is embedded with it.

1312
01:44:01.479 --> 01:44:06.960
It never mind that literally that's their
customer for the most part. But

1313
01:44:08.079 --> 01:44:12.479
also they start getting into all of
these terms. Let's see, can't say

1314
01:44:12.560 --> 01:44:15.600
that one that one step mom can
say that, but they mean in a

1315
01:44:15.640 --> 01:44:21.520
different way, Nope, can't say
that. And they also start teaching in

1316
01:44:21.560 --> 01:44:27.880
a positive fashion the virtues of different
things because they want to They want kids

1317
01:44:27.880 --> 01:44:30.560
to understand that, you know,
even if you're into something that your friends

1318
01:44:30.560 --> 01:44:40.000
aren't, that it's okay. And
it includes sections on incest, barely legal

1319
01:44:41.640 --> 01:44:50.119
vanilla, I guess, which is
you know, regular regular waterboard electro what

1320
01:44:50.520 --> 01:44:58.279
rob I'm not familiar ross would you
Google, Waterboard Internet froze up right now.

1321
01:44:58.840 --> 01:45:02.039
I told we were we teach the
story. You have the story down,

1322
01:45:02.079 --> 01:45:05.720
so I need to know what water
board like. Throat. He can't

1323
01:45:05.760 --> 01:45:12.640
believe it. It's all it's all
