00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:44.439
Well, good morning everybody in Happy
Friday. It is the Casey Oda Radio

2
00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:52.240
program. Unfortunately, I was greeted
with the three worst words you can ever

3
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:57.640
see when you turn on your computer
this morning. Kyle, what do you

4
00:00:57.679 --> 00:01:00.520
think the three worst words are you
could see when you turn on your computer

5
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:06.120
this morning. I'm gonna go with
something involving updates that is correct, updates

6
00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:10.359
were installed. Do we know do
we know what that has screwed up?

7
00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:15.599
Yet? No? No, everything
looks as it's supposed to. It's not

8
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:19.719
asking me to shut it down and
restart it. But once I passed the

9
00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:26.079
signing screen, it's and I signed
yet, and I didn't look like I

10
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:30.280
clack clack clack signing in. And
then I got up and went to the

11
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:34.879
bathroom and went and got like a
gatorade and all that, and then I

12
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:38.480
rolled back sit down in front of
the computer. I'm like, oh,

13
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:46.079
no, no, So we're gonna
find out on this adventure together on what's

14
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:49.159
going on with this. This is
the call screen computers. Hey, you

15
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:52.599
know the call the next gen one's
working fine, So the call screener here,

16
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:55.719
it does take about a half hour
from the time I log on to

17
00:01:55.799 --> 00:02:00.560
the time that I can launch the
program. Oh wow, yep, I'm

18
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:07.879
sure that's a design right. Oh
man, Hey, speaking of by design,

19
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:09.680
I don't know if it's by design, but I find it very interesting.

20
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:13.240
I was reading two stories this where
neither of which are in the pack,

21
00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:16.159
so you haven't seen these. But
so I'm reading two stories this morning,

22
00:02:16.759 --> 00:02:23.120
and I got I got some questions. So this is CNN, So

23
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:32.199
take it for what it's worth.
Rome in crisis as Italian pasta prices sore.

24
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:38.240
So they're having a pasta shortage over
in Italy and it's so bad at

25
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:46.280
such a staple that their version of
like the FBI, is investigating as to

26
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:50.759
what's going on here, because obviously
that's not a thing that can happen.

27
00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:55.560
You can't have the pasta prices going
wacky. So does anybody else find it

28
00:02:55.759 --> 00:03:05.000
very interesting that after utilizing a week's
worth of vacation, Ross has been able

29
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:08.639
to turn his attention to testing the
never endedness of the never ending postable,

30
00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:15.400
and simultaneously we find out at the
end of the week that Italy's almost out

31
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:20.960
of pasta Or is that just am
I just a conspiracy theorist trying to connect

32
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:29.400
two things? Because I feel like
they may be related. I don't know.

33
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:32.479
I don't know the answer. I'm
just saying I find it the timing

34
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:38.840
to be very interesting. And as
you can imagine, if you're in Italy,

35
00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:44.719
running out of pasta is a bit
of a process. Although I just

36
00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:47.520
assumed if you live in Italy you
would never use premade pasta. That's a

37
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:53.039
joke, by the way. That's
why there's all different brands over there.

38
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:55.439
But you would never, I tell
anyone, So, like, could you

39
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:59.439
really complain about it? Wouldn't you
just suck it up and make your own?

40
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:06.479
Don't know. I wonder when it
hits America. I mean, sure,

41
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:13.719
Italy is Italy, but God help
us if it hits here. Gotta

42
00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:15.920
have the pasta. You guys eat
a lot of pasta, Kyle Fair,

43
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:20.040
Do you eat real pasta? By
real? Do you mean I make it

44
00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:23.959
myself? No? No, no, no, no no. But it's

45
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:26.800
not some weird sweet thing, right, oh no, real pasta? Yeah?

46
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:31.240
Oh okay, all right, So
you your your whole family could be

47
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:38.040
impacted. What's that? So some
crap out there? I'm sure there is,

48
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:43.759
because pasta has animal products, right, there's bugs and everything. Right,

49
00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:46.800
Well, I was I met the
eggs, but you know whatever,

50
00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:53.160
I don't know, but yeah,
no, My theory is RASA has been

51
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:57.839
over it. It's like when they
kicked Peter out of the Chinese buffet on

52
00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:01.240
Family Guy, except they didn't do
it because you know, he's wearing that

53
00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:05.560
sheriff's hat and they're intimidated or something. I don't know, but I found

54
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:09.000
that very interesting. This morning,
you were just at all of garden.

55
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:12.319
Did they have pasta? You know, they still did as of as of

56
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:15.199
last night. The family became part
of that family. It was a good

57
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:21.519
time. Kyle was bragging this morning, just we did. And then he's

58
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:26.160
like, yeah, well I took
the family to Olive Garden and then he

59
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:30.920
grabbed a wad of hundreds and used
him to light a soy cigar. So

60
00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:35.879
it was it was very disgusting.
Now, so that's uh, that's it's

61
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:42.319
apparently a big national crisis over there. So running out of pasta van I

62
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:45.639
don't know what they're gonna do.
All right, six thirteen case O Day

63
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:48.199
Radio program coming up on the show
eight oh five Peak Calendar will join us.

64
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:53.800
He'll be um. We got all
sorts of fun stuff to a chit

65
00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:57.759
chat about uh, we gotta for
some reason, I got a ton of

66
00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:04.040
California stories, not just because of
the Supreme Court kind of screwed pork producers

67
00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:10.639
a little bit. But I guess
I I battle with this, So I'll

68
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:15.279
lay it out. I'll lay it
out for you and I'll see what you

69
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:19.879
think. Because they did take the
less government approach, at least the less

70
00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:26.560
federal government approach, which you know
that that's generally I'm a big fan of

71
00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:31.920
that. But the ripples of that
court case could be very impactful, especially

72
00:06:31.959 --> 00:06:38.279
here in North Carolina. We got
what or two hogs laying around. Don't

73
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:43.199
know if you know that, maybe
if you're new here. Yip yip yip

74
00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:47.199
yip yeup. In fact, we
have a whole political empire and town that's

75
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:53.959
basically built on rent in space for
hogs. It's a really amazing story.

76
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:00.600
And the Chinese are involved too,
all right, so we'll get to we'll

77
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:05.480
get to that. Plus you know, just the standard Friday fun and frivolity

78
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:10.000
and screaming about stuff. Okay,
all right, everything you've come to expect

79
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:19.639
on the way hang on a new
decade on the calendar and celebrating ten years

80
00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:24.279
on the air. This is one
oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle

81
00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:30.360
and News Talk n w PTI and
the Triad. Do you know who the

82
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:32.360
dumbest person on the planet is?
Now? I just I just thought of

83
00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:36.839
this during the during the break.
Remember how we finally figured out why somebody

84
00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:43.040
dumped five hundred pounds of pasta along
a creek in New Jersey. And it

85
00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:46.519
wasn't some weird take over the planet
thing. It was some guy whose mom

86
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:50.920
died and she had been hoarding five
hundred pounds of pasta. That poor bastard.

87
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:54.959
If we're about to have a big
pasta run, that guy was sitting

88
00:07:55.000 --> 00:08:01.759
on a gold mine. That's a
craig. I was like, I could

89
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:05.600
have retired. He was like,
it was like a dude who bought bitcoin

90
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:11.360
back when you could pay for pizza
with a hundred of them and then forgot

91
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:15.560
about it for fifteen years. And
he just took all that pasta ahead of

92
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:20.160
the Great Pasta Shortage I've named it, and just dumped it there on the

93
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:28.360
side of the creek. What an
idiot man. Pastaflation. We just do

94
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:33.519
pasta puns on the story too,
if you won add one yesterday, but

95
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:39.360
I'll work it in again, right
whoever whoever's responsible for pastaflation in the form

96
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:43.840
of sixteen and a half percent year
over year should go to the Penna tentry.

97
00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:48.480
Uh, preposterous, that's right,
look at that. Kyle's all in

98
00:08:48.559 --> 00:09:03.120
on this. What what obviously is
causing them to wonder how the hell we

99
00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:09.039
got here? Is wheat isn't up. In fact, the price of wheat's

100
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:13.200
fallen year over year, and obviously
wheat is the main ingredient in pasta.

101
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:30.120
So what the heck here? People
sending me weird pasta memes. We're doing

102
00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:33.840
pasta puns right now, so,
uh, you know, just so as

103
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:35.639
you know, all right, So, yeah, we got that story there

104
00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:43.799
eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four You want to be on

105
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:46.960
the show, that's how you make
that happen. So then I was reading

106
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:50.240
this story. It actually I was
reading two different stories. But have you

107
00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:56.440
read about um these? And of
course it's Silicon Valley, which you know,

108
00:09:56.440 --> 00:09:58.759
everything's going swimmingly there, and no
worry, we'll get into the Twitter

109
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:03.120
new I know, so you're very
amped for that this morning. But I

110
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:05.960
want to grab a little chunk of
audio which we didn't do before the show

111
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:13.080
that I just saw, So hang, loose. Um. So basically they're

112
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:24.039
they're they're talking about these guys that
they're talking about, these guys that micro

113
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:28.759
doose. Do you know what this
is? So they take small doses of

114
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:37.799
narcotics throughout the day and like in
some cases like acid, hallucinogenic mushrooms.

115
00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:41.679
Um, there's one guy, there
was one dude who was taking small doses

116
00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:48.639
of ketamine and they swear that like
it helps the performance frames. I don't

117
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:54.279
know how horse tranquilizer frames the mind. Um, I'm not clear. Although

118
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:56.639
if I had known you you get
so much money for it. You know,

119
00:10:56.720 --> 00:11:01.039
growing up we had horse tranquilizers.
I never thought to put one in

120
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:05.320
my mouth. Um. But yeah, they're like they're they're sitting there like,

121
00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:09.000
oh no, this is the secret
to being efficient, being able to

122
00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:11.759
get things done all day. And
I'm like, it's not some new secret

123
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:18.480
you cracked. Have you ever heard
of musicians or you know, people in

124
00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:24.919
entertainment. Michael Jackson will be a
good example. Right, they get up,

125
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:28.279
they got some doctor on standby,
give him, give him a little

126
00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:33.879
juice, and throughout the day you
would, uh, you'd faint from just

127
00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:41.720
hearing the list of substance to substances
they're jamming in their bodies and then when

128
00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:45.720
it's night, night time out they
go. Marilyn Monroe talked about this.

129
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:50.039
It's it's not a new thing.
But also, why are you so stupid

130
00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:54.240
You're giving an interview about how you
do ketamine at work? I mean,

131
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:56.799
granted, I know you're part of
a startup, and you know, you're

132
00:11:56.000 --> 00:12:01.240
you're you're the world, You're oyster, and you're setting your own parameters and

133
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:05.559
you're you're in charge. But what
if that doesn't work and you got to

134
00:12:05.559 --> 00:12:09.559
go get another job? I mean, by google your name and you're bragging

135
00:12:09.559 --> 00:12:18.080
about how much ketamine you're snorting,
who's hiring you? Unless I don't know,

136
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:24.720
it's like a ketamine study or something. I was unaway, but it

137
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:26.759
just what struck me about it is
not that they were doing it, but

138
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:31.600
that they thought that them in you
know, working high you know, high

139
00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:37.039
amount of hours, high stress positions, think that doing drugs, a regiment

140
00:12:37.080 --> 00:12:41.919
of drugs throughout the day to maximize
your you're awake time is some sort of

141
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:46.919
new concept that they just discovered.
I'm like, nah, I would I

142
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:50.399
would, I would look to Hollywood
or I don't know a World War two

143
00:12:50.519 --> 00:13:00.600
Germany. Right, Hitler was given
his dudes meth he himself was on a

144
00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:05.000
wide variety of things. So I
just I love. I love when we

145
00:13:05.080 --> 00:13:09.559
reinvented stuff and then we write articles
about it, like, oh, the

146
00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:15.679
housing prizes are crazy. So what
New York Zelenials have figured out how to

147
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:20.320
do is there'll be two people.
They'll run a two bedroom apartment together,

148
00:13:20.519 --> 00:13:24.440
but they're not related, they're not
in a relationship. They just lived there,

149
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:26.600
one in one bedroom, one in
the other. It's crazy, this

150
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:33.200
co living oimy roommates. Yeah,
yeah, I'd heard of that. So

151
00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:37.320
we'll tack this one up there as
you got another example of that. All

152
00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:45.279
right, let's talk about California real
quick being a Silicon valley. You obviously

153
00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:50.960
heard the news last week the California's
Reparations Committee has recommended that they give was

154
00:13:52.000 --> 00:14:01.440
at one point two million dollars each
to any qualified black California Californian. But

155
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:05.679
that's only half of the fun.
Oh and did you see Gavin Newsom isn't

156
00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:11.320
coming out and endorsing that. Let's
show you how disingenuousness Galue is. Because

157
00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:16.120
he loved the idea of reparations.
But now he might you know, he's

158
00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:22.200
looking to potentially running for president,
and he's seeing the poll numbers, and

159
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:26.440
most of America thinks that's stupid,
right, most of California does too,

160
00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:33.360
believe it or not, But they
also are demanding the state of California apologize.

161
00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:35.919
And they have released the list of
what they have to apologize for.

162
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:43.559
And I guess, I guess the
apology is to anyone who's black and lives

163
00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:52.039
in California. So, um,
this is apparently what they will officially apologize

164
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:56.120
over. I was just looking at
this list, all right. They will

165
00:14:56.159 --> 00:15:03.039
apologize a for a former Confederates serving
as the first acting president of the University

166
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:09.080
of California. They will apologize for
California not passing antislavery laws despite being admitted

167
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:15.120
to the Union as a free state. So they didn't have slaveries, so

168
00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:22.360
they didn't pass laws barring something.
They didn't have Confederate monuments. I guess

169
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:31.559
that's just a blanket apology. Zoning
ordinances targeting black people, suppressing the Black

170
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:35.240
Panther Party in the sixties and seventies. Well, I don't know if you

171
00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.519
know this, but the Black Panther
Party specifically in California in the sixties and

172
00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:50.159
seventies, they did some stuff and
I don't mean Marchham with signs developing oil

173
00:15:50.200 --> 00:16:03.960
and gas projects a sorry, terminating
affirmative action programs in public employment, racial

174
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:07.559
disparities in the child welfare system,
law enforcement, prison, pop jury service,

175
00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:15.879
healthcare physicians and licensed attorneys, and
licensing requirements excluding black people from skilled

176
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:22.039
jobs. Is that a thing?
I look, that's not a thing.

177
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:26.679
That's an opinion where they think that
licensing in general. And if you want

178
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:29.279
to have a debate about that,
fine, But it's one more item on

179
00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:33.639
here that I've got to destroy because
they're wrong, and it has to do

180
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.120
with Ronald Reagan. And I'll get
into that story coming up right after the

181
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:52.440
news hang on ten years of news
twice an hour and smart talk all day

182
00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:57.320
four five WPTI in the Triad and
one oh six one FM Talk in the

183
00:16:57.399 --> 00:17:03.519
Triangle. Well Well well, well, well six thirty four good morning,

184
00:17:03.599 --> 00:17:07.400
case O Day radio program. You're
going to be shocked to learn that the

185
00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:15.480
reparations panel out in California that's decided
that state of California should pay one point

186
00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:22.200
two million dollars to each and every
qualifying whatever that means. Black resident of

187
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:30.920
California also has included a list of
apologies, official apologies. And I'm looking

188
00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:37.319
at this thing this morning and I
noticed something, right I read you.

189
00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:42.240
Most of the list pretty standard stuff, real open ended stuff. There's some

190
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:48.880
stuff I don't fully understand, like
are they are there business licenses that are

191
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:52.960
not available to people of all races? I couldn't find any, but that's

192
00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:57.200
something they want. But one of
the main apologies they've asked for is an

193
00:17:57.240 --> 00:18:10.799
apology over Ronald Reagan coining the term
welfare queen. The terminology this is from

194
00:18:10.799 --> 00:18:17.119
the committee. The terminology conjures stereotypes
of single black women as hypersexualized, aggressive,

195
00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:23.279
and dependent on government income with frivolous
spending habits, despite that the majority

196
00:18:23.279 --> 00:18:30.559
of welfare recipients are white. This
racist label blamed African American women for shortfalls

197
00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:36.640
in the US's social safety net and
suggested they were more responsible for their poverty

198
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:45.359
than others. We demand an apology
by then from on behalf of then Governor

199
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:49.000
Reagan, who also had been reported
to have made racist remarks elsewhere, including

200
00:18:51.200 --> 00:18:56.000
in private regarding African delegates to the
UN. I'm not super familiar with they're

201
00:18:56.039 --> 00:19:03.079
referencing there, but I have seen
this before. You know why the state

202
00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:08.000
of California should not apologize for Ronald
Reagan coining the term welfare queen? Can

203
00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:15.079
anybody guess why? Because he didn't. This is why when I this is

204
00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:19.839
why I pound on stuff like the
Charlottesville stuff or the hands up, don't

205
00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:26.400
shoot. It shows you how many
of these things can get baked in or

206
00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:30.119
Sarah Palin, I could see Russia
from my front porch. It shows you

207
00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:34.319
and then it makes you question how
many things in history are just wrong.

208
00:19:36.880 --> 00:19:41.119
That's why it's always fascinating when you
find out more about stuff. Do you

209
00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:44.799
do you know about the Boston Tea
Party? Or do you know about the

210
00:19:44.839 --> 00:19:49.000
Boston Tea Party and the intricacies behind
it? Because there's two levels of knowing

211
00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:52.200
what's up there. I'm not going
to delve into all of that, but

212
00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:57.880
if that piqued your interest, you
know, google what was the Boston Tea

213
00:19:57.920 --> 00:20:02.720
Party really about? Or are also
about? Or I can't remember what the

214
00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:06.359
name of the video was fascinating and
they cited their sources in it. So

215
00:20:06.519 --> 00:20:11.119
I love learned about a history.
But let me explain to you why Reagan

216
00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:15.839
didn't invent welfare queen and who did
so? Ronald Reagan gave a speech,

217
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:22.319
and in the speech he was he
was talking about different examples, but one

218
00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:25.559
of the things that he talked about
was a story that had been in the

219
00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:27.799
news. This was in nineteen seventy
six. It was in the news,

220
00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:33.519
and this was, by the way, after he was governor, he was

221
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:37.880
not even governor anymore. But he
gave a speech and he commented on an

222
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:45.400
article about a woman from Chicago named
Linda Taylor, and Linda basically had cobbled

223
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:52.839
together a hundred and fifty thousand dollars
a year in welfare payments from various social

224
00:20:52.880 --> 00:21:00.519
safety net programs in nineteen seventy six. What's one hundred what's a hund fifty

225
00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:07.079
thousand dollars worth today of one hundred
and fifty thousand nineteen seventy six money,

226
00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:11.480
Kyle? Can you can you uh
convert that real quick? While I'm still

227
00:21:11.519 --> 00:21:15.559
talking, I want to know what
one hundred and fifty thousand a year because

228
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:18.960
Chicago was expensive, Yeah, that
would be seven hundred ninety nine, seven

229
00:21:18.079 --> 00:21:23.839
hundred twenty six dollars and seventy one
Since in today's eight hundred thousand bucks.

230
00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:29.839
Right, that's a lot of money
eight hundred eight hundred you think you could

231
00:21:29.839 --> 00:21:33.000
get by maybe maybe you guys go
to all Garden twice a week. Whoo,

232
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.440
that's what I'm saying. Man,
So she so, And he was

233
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:41.680
talking about these programs being broken,
and he was citing a story that had

234
00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:48.720
outraged a lot of people, including
people who probably very much thought that they

235
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:52.480
needed this wide variety of social safety
net programs. He was talking about accountability

236
00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:56.640
of it, but he was also
talking about this story that had shocked people.

237
00:21:57.720 --> 00:22:00.799
She figured out how to manipulate the
system, and some of it was

238
00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:04.119
through fraud, I might add,
but she was able to get eight hundred

239
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:11.400
thousand dollars a month. Was crazy. And that was it. That was

240
00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:14.599
the extent to what she spoke.
Do you know who actually used the term

241
00:22:14.640 --> 00:22:23.160
welfare queen? Writers at the Chicago
Tribune. That's how they headline this story

242
00:22:23.160 --> 00:22:27.279
about Linda Taylor when the story broke, welfare queen because she's living like a

243
00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:33.359
queen and she's on welfare. And
so by Reagan talking about it, Chicago

244
00:22:33.440 --> 00:22:41.640
Tribune including in further coverage. So
you now have because you have the initial

245
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:45.359
stories. But now you have the
story where Reagan's quoted as even the former

246
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:48.839
governor of California said something blah blah
blah, and then they put it in

247
00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:53.440
their subheadline. It gets attributed even
though it's not in quotes in the article.

248
00:22:55.400 --> 00:23:00.480
So this committee who who is trying
to determine historically whether people who were

249
00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:10.480
never slaves surrounded by people who never
own slaves have some sort of historical right

250
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:17.960
to these big old pots of money
and apparently a list of apologies, and

251
00:23:18.039 --> 00:23:25.440
they can't even be bothered to do
their research. Whole thing's bonkers, man,

252
00:23:25.480 --> 00:23:33.759
But it's California, and so that's
you know, it doesn't even shock

253
00:23:33.839 --> 00:23:37.440
the senses when you read that it's
going on. Oh, which is just

254
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:44.480
crazy. All right. So yesterday
Elon must mentioned that there's going to be

255
00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:51.759
a new CEO, and really all
that we knew was that it's a woman

256
00:23:51.960 --> 00:23:57.640
or identifies as a woman based on
pronoun usage. All right, He said

257
00:23:57.680 --> 00:24:07.400
that she would be starting here in
six weeks, but they didn't say who

258
00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:11.880
it was. However, it doesn't
sound like it's a very well kept secret,

259
00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:18.240
if if some of the reporting this
morning is to be believed, because

260
00:24:21.079 --> 00:24:25.839
they think they found out who it
is, and UM, let's just say

261
00:24:25.880 --> 00:24:33.039
there's uh, there's tape on all
this, and um, if she is

262
00:24:33.079 --> 00:24:37.680
in fact going to be the new
CEO of of Twitter, I think a

263
00:24:37.680 --> 00:24:42.160
lot of people are going to have
some questions about this particular decision. The

264
00:24:42.200 --> 00:24:52.720
woman's name is Linda Jacarino, and
um, she's worked in a variety of

265
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:56.240
you know, corporate entities, work
for Comcast, a bunch of others.

266
00:24:56.279 --> 00:24:59.240
In fact, let me do let
me do this because I want to give

267
00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:02.039
you her bio, but I want
to play some audio from her as well.

268
00:25:02.680 --> 00:25:07.720
And again, this has not been
confirmed by Elon, but I'm seeing

269
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:15.440
it with enough people reporting it that
I think it's it's probably this is probably

270
00:25:15.480 --> 00:25:21.079
who it is. So I will
get into who this woman is and what

271
00:25:21.160 --> 00:25:23.559
people are saying, and we'll play
a little snippet of sound from her.

272
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:33.759
No, not her World Economic Forum
speech. Yeah, yeah, yep,

273
00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:41.160
she's she lots of pictures of her
speaking over there. But instead we'll go

274
00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:49.000
back to the summer of the summer
of mostly peaceful protests and how her her

275
00:25:49.160 --> 00:25:57.000
as a it's a big wig.
I think a Comcast at the time decided

276
00:25:57.000 --> 00:26:00.599
that they were going to respond,
So all that more coming up six forty

277
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:14.640
three, Hang on ten years of
news twice an hour and smart talk all

278
00:26:14.720 --> 00:26:19.440
day, four five WPTI in the
Triad and one oh six one FM Talk

279
00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:23.519
in the Triangle. All right,
here we go everything you wanted to know

280
00:26:23.640 --> 00:26:27.480
about the woman who's purported to be
the new CEO of Twitter here in the

281
00:26:27.519 --> 00:26:32.200
next few weeks. Because I see
people online and I feel like they've done

282
00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:34.880
half their research but not the other
half. So I want to try to

283
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:40.079
be fair here because I think this
is important. Now. Admittedly, one

284
00:26:40.119 --> 00:26:42.880
of my favorite things really on the
whole Twitter front is mostly watching people whine

285
00:26:42.920 --> 00:26:45.599
about stuff like, oh, they
put a blue chuck bark on me,

286
00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:49.559
So that's where I get my entertainment. But I also understand that there are

287
00:26:49.559 --> 00:26:55.039
a lot of folks sitting there and
looking at Twitter as kind of the last

288
00:26:55.079 --> 00:27:00.440
bastion of social media where you might
just get an edge of allowability to uh,

289
00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:06.559
you know, proper ideas that maybe
aren't mainstream without getting your hand slapped,

290
00:27:06.559 --> 00:27:11.279
although you know that stuff still happens. So when Wall Street Journal,

291
00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:15.640
in New York Times and several others
started saying this is most likely the new

292
00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:21.960
CEO. Obviously people started to look
into her and during her time she's been

293
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:26.240
she's been with NBC Universal Comcast for
like twenty years. I think she was

294
00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:30.160
a turner prior to that, so
really just a couple of gigs. She's

295
00:27:30.480 --> 00:27:36.880
she's head of advertising for him.
She is, she's the the top dog

296
00:27:36.920 --> 00:27:42.759
in NBC Universal when it comes to
global advertising, so very very upper upper

297
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:49.599
echelon and UM. As a result, she also at a time when everything

298
00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:53.759
was going on with UM, all
of these corporations wanting to get on board

299
00:27:53.799 --> 00:28:02.200
with BLM and everything, she was
the one who on a on a team's

300
00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:07.519
meeting or a zoom meeting, there's
video of talking about how they're dealing with

301
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:12.240
it. Because she has board position, she is part of the World Economics

302
00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:17.200
Forum's task force. I think she's
chairwoman of the task Force on Future of

303
00:28:17.279 --> 00:28:21.720
Work and sits on the board for
Media, Entertainment and Culture. So anytime

304
00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:26.480
people hear World Economic Forum, they
rightfully raise an eyebrow. However, what

305
00:28:26.640 --> 00:28:27.599
you may not know about her,
well, actually, let me play the

306
00:28:27.599 --> 00:28:32.960
audio here. She is talking about
just a little bit of one of the

307
00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:40.480
initiatives that the Comcast side of things
within NBC Universal is deciding to undertake can

308
00:28:40.559 --> 00:28:47.519
talk about, you know, things
that my company is doing to accelerate,

309
00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:52.839
right, to accelerate what we were
doing already, but realizing that it wasn't

310
00:28:52.960 --> 00:28:59.720
enough. So what immediately started happening
was that, under the leadership of Brian

311
00:28:59.799 --> 00:29:06.000
Roberts and Jeff Scholl, Comcast set
up a fund to the value of a

312
00:29:06.119 --> 00:29:11.000
hundred million dollars to fight social justice
inequality. All right, so you know,

313
00:29:11.119 --> 00:29:15.160
and that's what you saw all of
these big sea level sweet muckety muck's

314
00:29:15.200 --> 00:29:21.759
doing at that time, right,
and so people see this, they see

315
00:29:21.759 --> 00:29:23.759
the World Economic Forum stuff, and
they're on Twitter and they're freaking out.

316
00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:29.400
Well, it was fun while it
lasted, is essentially the verbiage there.

317
00:29:29.440 --> 00:29:33.200
But maybe did I don't know if
you knew this. Do you know who

318
00:29:33.279 --> 00:29:45.319
Linda Yacarino is friends with Donald Trump? Let that set in again. Now

319
00:29:45.319 --> 00:29:48.680
to what extent they're friends, I
don't know, but enough that when Trump

320
00:29:49.279 --> 00:29:57.319
was elected president, he tapped her
to sit he appointed her to what specifically

321
00:29:57.440 --> 00:30:03.000
was it. She was one of
his political appointees I think was the sports

322
00:30:03.519 --> 00:30:07.799
Yeah, sports fitness and nutrition.
Yeah, you know, and that's that's

323
00:30:07.799 --> 00:30:10.440
one of those you know, hey, thanks for being a friend, or

324
00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:15.119
bundling or you know, thank you
kind of things. Right where there's prestige

325
00:30:15.160 --> 00:30:21.240
attached to it. You get to
your opinion rises to the top when recommendations

326
00:30:21.240 --> 00:30:23.799
are being made. But you know
that's not something you generally just dole out

327
00:30:23.799 --> 00:30:33.200
to know somebody don't know. And
advertising is going to be Twitter's challenge,

328
00:30:33.440 --> 00:30:40.559
especially advertising in an environment where you
have the rest of the media coming after

329
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:47.319
you, and you're going to be
fundamentally reinventing some of what Twitter does if

330
00:30:47.400 --> 00:30:52.799
things like Tucker Carlson moving to show
there and others emerges, because you're gonna

331
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:56.920
have you're gonna have to monetize all
of that advertising and media is always your

332
00:30:57.000 --> 00:31:03.680
challenge, right we work in media. Obviously, you know half half the

333
00:31:03.720 --> 00:31:08.119
battle is us putting on a show
and getting you all to listen to it,

334
00:31:08.160 --> 00:31:11.440
and we appreciate that. But on
the other side, even if everyone

335
00:31:11.480 --> 00:31:15.160
in the entire state of North Carolina
listened to the show, if the company

336
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:22.079
is not able to sell ads and
monetize it, that from a business perspective,

337
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:27.039
it doesn't have value other than obviously
all of the great information and laughs,

338
00:31:27.079 --> 00:31:32.400
we provide who did you see everybody
she follows on Twitter? I did

339
00:31:32.480 --> 00:31:36.079
not see that list. You want
me to share? Yeah, go,

340
00:31:36.079 --> 00:31:44.960
go go. She follows cat turd
okay, but also Rhonda Santis, Babylon

341
00:31:45.039 --> 00:31:53.039
b Libs of TikTok, Sydney Powell. And again, I don't know everybody's

342
00:31:53.079 --> 00:31:56.559
speculating right now, but I saw
a lot of people that were talking about

343
00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:04.480
the World Economic Forum stuff and yeah, I hear you and that where she's

344
00:32:04.519 --> 00:32:09.599
talking about these equity initiatives. But
also I bet there were a lot of

345
00:32:09.640 --> 00:32:14.359
CEOs that during that summer of twenty
twenty, when the companies were making these

346
00:32:14.480 --> 00:32:21.480
ransom payments, um that you know, just realized that the best business decision

347
00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:23.759
was to bear and grinned. Now, that may not be acceptable for some

348
00:32:23.839 --> 00:32:28.119
people saying, no, you gotta
take a stand. You gotta gotta be

349
00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:32.200
willing to push back on that garbage
right where you're getting where even after we

350
00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:37.880
find out that the the BLM people
are buying all these houses. Uh,

351
00:32:37.920 --> 00:32:40.440
these companies that were on that had
pledged all this money, they just they

352
00:32:40.519 --> 00:32:45.960
just did it. They just kept
giving the money. So I'm just saying

353
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:50.799
I don't know, but I feel
like you should have you should know all

354
00:32:50.839 --> 00:32:58.039
of that. Yeah, she served
as on President Trump's counsel of Sports,

355
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:05.599
So I don't know, but I
do know that somebody with an advertising background

356
00:33:05.720 --> 00:33:12.599
is going to be immensely valuable to
Elon. And you know what, maybe

357
00:33:12.599 --> 00:33:19.680
she's all in on the equity inclusion
and you know where it becomes to the

358
00:33:19.680 --> 00:33:22.160
point like that Silicon Valley person who
was supposed to be in charge of making

359
00:33:22.200 --> 00:33:27.160
sure that the bank was, you
know, not putting all its apples in

360
00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:30.440
one basket. That individual, that
vice president has spent most of her time

361
00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:36.720
just organizing equity stuff and Pride Month
celebrations and whatnot. So I don't know

362
00:33:36.759 --> 00:33:40.039
where her head's at, but I
do know that it's a more complex background

363
00:33:42.200 --> 00:33:45.400
than some of what I'm seeing there. So hey, I don't know.

364
00:33:45.480 --> 00:33:52.359
We'll see again. It's not even
been confirmed, but feasibly it would make

365
00:33:52.400 --> 00:33:59.000
sense considering what she's been at for
twenty some years for NBC and Turner before

366
00:33:59.039 --> 00:34:06.960
that, and where Twitter needs to
focus its energies to spend forty four billion

367
00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:10.840
dollars. You want to make sure
that you're on the path to solvency,

368
00:34:13.360 --> 00:34:17.519
all right? Eight eight eight nine
three four seven eight seventy four. That's

369
00:34:17.519 --> 00:34:22.079
the phone number you want to weigh
in on this? Uh, go right

370
00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:27.000
ahead. Who did you think it
was gonna be? Michelle Malkin? I

371
00:34:27.119 --> 00:34:37.679
mean it makes sense. Actually,
all right, news coming up a loose

372
00:34:37.840 --> 00:35:16.639
case O Day radio program. All
right, good morning everybody, and we're

373
00:35:16.679 --> 00:35:20.760
welcome, and he is seven h
seven here on the k c O Day

374
00:35:20.920 --> 00:35:24.159
Radio program, our number two.
There was one other thing I wanted to

375
00:35:24.199 --> 00:35:29.920
add on our little like get to
know your thing with the woman who is

376
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:37.119
it's not confirmed, but it's basically
being reported. It's not very well kept

377
00:35:37.159 --> 00:35:42.920
secret, the woman who's likely been
tapped to be CEO of Twitter. See

378
00:35:42.920 --> 00:35:49.800
people are already debating this on Twitter, which is good. And there's a

379
00:35:49.800 --> 00:35:55.239
couple of things that make people nervous
who liked the new direction of Twitter.

380
00:35:55.320 --> 00:36:00.800
One is her involvement with the World
Economic Forum, chairman of one of the

381
00:36:00.840 --> 00:36:07.079
committees, SIT's on another and she's
coming from NBC. And also there's a

382
00:36:07.400 --> 00:36:13.239
you know, a hostage video of
her talking about equity initiatives. At the

383
00:36:13.280 --> 00:36:17.679
time, all of that was going
on and companies were just writing blank checks

384
00:36:17.719 --> 00:36:22.880
to BLM, who was then buying
a bunch of houses with it, and

385
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:25.880
in many cases not taking that money
and even turning it back to the communities

386
00:36:27.039 --> 00:36:30.079
which it fundraised. Out of right. There's many, many, many of

387
00:36:30.079 --> 00:36:36.639
the families of some of the cases
that were highlighted by Black Lives Matter that

388
00:36:36.800 --> 00:36:38.679
said them, all that money rolled
in and they never saw any of it

389
00:36:38.719 --> 00:36:45.320
within their local community. Craziness.
Man, So people look at that.

390
00:36:45.360 --> 00:36:50.400
But what I don't see a lot
of discussion around is Jakarina was an appointee

391
00:36:50.400 --> 00:36:54.039
of Trump. Down. That's not
to say Trump hasn't brought in folks and

392
00:36:54.119 --> 00:37:00.960
put confidence in folks who turned out
to be snakes. Many many, many

393
00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:07.519
examples of that, but it is
a politically appointed position. Also, Jaquarino,

394
00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:13.400
following must acquisition, this is prior
to her I guess reportedly being tapped

395
00:37:13.400 --> 00:37:21.360
to be CEO, was actually defending
Twitter basically where when companies were who just

396
00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:25.480
decided to recoil because activists were getting
to them and you know, pause some

397
00:37:25.559 --> 00:37:32.840
of their partnerships. She actually posted
a statement in support of Twitter saying,

398
00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:37.679
quote, let's see you. I'm
not going to read all of this.

399
00:37:37.639 --> 00:37:42.519
We heard very clearly this week the
Twitter is committed to freedom of speech,

400
00:37:42.679 --> 00:37:47.960
not freedom of reach, accountability and
ultimate transparency. These are things we should

401
00:37:47.960 --> 00:37:52.679
all be able to get behind as
creators of culture and conversation on Twitter.

402
00:37:52.760 --> 00:37:57.400
All of us in the media and
marketing industry have a responsibility to do our

403
00:37:57.440 --> 00:38:01.400
part. The doors open to give
feedback and prove if you have concerns this

404
00:38:01.480 --> 00:38:06.360
platform, which is beloved by hundreds
of millions of people around the world.

405
00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:10.239
So let's all jump in and keep
proposing solutions and make sure that Twitter two

406
00:38:10.280 --> 00:38:19.039
point zero can take flight pun intended. All right, So I mean that's

407
00:38:17.719 --> 00:38:23.159
that sounds like she's defending Twitter.
So I don't know, but I wanted

408
00:38:23.199 --> 00:38:27.719
you to be armed with all of
the info as people lose their flipping minds

409
00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:34.400
on the social media's this morning.
But you know, it's easy to not

410
00:38:34.519 --> 00:38:43.480
have confidence as you're sitting there and
you're looking at the modern offerings of entertainment

411
00:38:43.480 --> 00:38:50.440
out there. Case in point,
how many of you were into Transformers when

412
00:38:50.440 --> 00:38:54.440
you were a kid? I know, I was, Kyle. Were you

413
00:38:54.440 --> 00:39:00.239
on the Transformer bandwagon back in the
day? Heck yeah, how cool was

414
00:39:00.280 --> 00:39:07.079
that? And then obviously the you
know, Transformers revitalized with the movies all

415
00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:12.239
seventeen of them or whatever there is. Though it's ridiculous, but they were

416
00:39:12.239 --> 00:39:20.199
big movies. People enjoyed many of
them, I guess, And I think

417
00:39:20.199 --> 00:39:22.199
they have another one coming up too. I think the summer right like,

418
00:39:22.239 --> 00:39:32.679
they're releasing another Transformers. However,
they also have a Transformer cartoon which I

419
00:39:32.719 --> 00:39:39.119
did not know, called Transformers Earth
Spark, which I guess that goes along

420
00:39:39.119 --> 00:39:44.079
when you got a hot intellectual property
and you wanting to promote your movies.

421
00:39:44.480 --> 00:39:45.639
I mean, back in the day, this is how it was done.

422
00:39:46.280 --> 00:39:51.119
Transformers learned when they were cutting teeth
back in the day that you gotta have

423
00:39:51.199 --> 00:39:52.480
the kids cartoon. Then he can
have the movies, that he can have

424
00:39:52.559 --> 00:39:54.760
the toys, that he can have
all the you know, all the merch.

425
00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:05.639
But rather rather than being a cartoon, I guess that you know,

426
00:40:05.719 --> 00:40:12.599
just your standard practice kid's cartoon about
Transformers and autobots and Decepticons and you know,

427
00:40:12.679 --> 00:40:17.119
all of the all of the you
know, the within that genre.

428
00:40:17.239 --> 00:40:22.039
There. Uh No, they've decided
that it's not some world ending thing where

429
00:40:22.440 --> 00:40:27.880
optimist Prime has to save the day. Instead, they want to they want

430
00:40:27.880 --> 00:40:31.519
to have a different conversation with your
kids. So if you just put on

431
00:40:31.639 --> 00:40:36.079
transformers because it looked like a cartoon
and you're familiar with the product. I

432
00:40:36.119 --> 00:40:42.400
just want you to understand what's going
on on the cartoon. Can you switch

433
00:40:45.960 --> 00:40:51.039
life stage announced I gave them he
or she just doesn't fitch, who I

434
00:40:51.079 --> 00:41:01.679
am my apologies? Please switch their
piece. Yes, that's right, they're

435
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:07.000
in there. They're stopping the saving
of the world or the universe or whatever

436
00:41:07.079 --> 00:41:13.960
currently was imperiled. To make sure
that they all understand nightshades umu pronouns.

437
00:41:15.960 --> 00:41:21.119
It's a damn car. Can it
just be like regular unleaded No, it's

438
00:41:21.199 --> 00:41:30.920
they them, it's multiple cars.
Stop being a bigot. Thanks, I'm

439
00:41:30.960 --> 00:41:40.599
Sam, I'm she babe. You
already know that. See you thought it

440
00:41:40.639 --> 00:41:45.320
was just a car. It's not
just a car. Just make it stop.

441
00:41:45.480 --> 00:41:50.639
Sometimes it's a truck. That was
my only line of thinking. If

442
00:41:50.639 --> 00:41:53.079
they're going with they them, is
it just a marketing ploy so they can

443
00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:59.320
introduce something that doesn't just go from
a murder bot to a Camaro, but

444
00:41:59.480 --> 00:42:01.760
rather go from a Camaro to a
murder bot to a four D F one

445
00:42:01.880 --> 00:42:07.920
fifty. Because admittedly, what if
you found out that the transformer you had

446
00:42:07.960 --> 00:42:13.880
back in the day couldn't just transform
to one vehicle, but two. That

447
00:42:13.920 --> 00:42:16.800
would be the one you'd want,
right, That's the one I would have

448
00:42:16.880 --> 00:42:20.800
wanted as a kid. You don't
even have to wrap it up in all

449
00:42:20.840 --> 00:42:24.079
the pronouns stuff. You're telling me
that I can and it'll break in five

450
00:42:24.119 --> 00:42:28.840
seconds because mine did. But you're
telling me I can go from you know,

451
00:42:29.000 --> 00:42:36.239
robot superhero to two different kinds of
vehicles. I'm in hook me up.

452
00:42:36.480 --> 00:42:39.119
Hey, Okay, I don't know
what I'm safe when I'm with my

453
00:42:39.199 --> 00:42:47.440
friends or other non binary people,
non binary people who are female or male.

454
00:42:49.760 --> 00:42:53.360
Oh I'm sorry. Yeah, I
shouldn't have assumed. I always knew

455
00:42:53.400 --> 00:43:00.760
my pronouns felt right. But what
a wonderful word or a wonderful experience.

456
00:43:05.880 --> 00:43:12.119
You know the best part about robots
talking about binary or being non binary?

457
00:43:14.880 --> 00:43:19.559
Kyle, what do we call the
code that's utilized to run robotics and electronics

458
00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:23.840
and computers and stuff. Well,
that that is binary. It's binary code

459
00:43:23.880 --> 00:43:30.599
ones and zero. You can't you
can't be an autobot it be non binary.

460
00:43:30.599 --> 00:43:34.440
It doesn't Okay, now I know
they're saying, Wow, Actually what

461
00:43:34.440 --> 00:43:38.840
it is is it's the all spark
by just don't just don't do it.

462
00:43:39.079 --> 00:43:42.079
Oh, I know you want to
pick up the but don't do it.

463
00:43:43.679 --> 00:43:51.119
So now we got to have Transformers
with with pronoun discussions for the kids,

464
00:43:51.239 --> 00:43:54.760
you know, for the kids.
Meanwhile, the asteroids getting closer to Earth,

465
00:43:54.760 --> 00:43:58.800
and nobody's doing a damn thing because
they're sitting around trying to figure out

466
00:43:58.840 --> 00:44:02.199
who's you know, which pronou button
they're gonna wear on a kid's cartoon.

467
00:44:05.000 --> 00:44:08.960
So I, man, I do
not envy you. Parents. Used to

468
00:44:08.960 --> 00:44:12.840
be you could just kind of dip
your toe in the water on a particular

469
00:44:12.880 --> 00:44:15.320
series or something and be like,
all right, that's fine. Kid wants

470
00:44:15.360 --> 00:44:17.119
to watch that, that's fine.
Yeah. We had a deal. If

471
00:44:17.159 --> 00:44:20.960
there was a show that we wanted
to watch, my mom wanted to know

472
00:44:21.000 --> 00:44:27.440
what it was, and she'd watch
an episode and she'd be like a yeah,

473
00:44:27.519 --> 00:44:30.000
you're nay, and then, you
know, passively, if we were

474
00:44:30.039 --> 00:44:34.440
running around being jackasses quoting something and
she didn't like it, she may dip

475
00:44:34.480 --> 00:44:37.199
her toe back in to see what's
going on. But for the most part

476
00:44:37.760 --> 00:44:40.559
she was able to do that.
You turn on Transformer cartoon, most people

477
00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:44.039
are just gonna be like, Noah, it's you know, it's just transformers.

478
00:44:46.840 --> 00:44:59.199
Well sometimes it ain't. Seven to
sixteen Hang on one oh six one

479
00:44:59.280 --> 00:45:04.639
FM Talk and nine four five w
PTI, two stations driving the best in

480
00:45:04.800 --> 00:45:15.400
talk. This is casey Oda and
Carolina's Morning News all right, seven twenty

481
00:45:15.400 --> 00:45:23.239
two casey Oda Radio program Bone number
eight eight eight ninety three four seven eight

482
00:45:23.280 --> 00:45:28.239
seven four. And that's not the
only thing lurking in the kids um kids

483
00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:30.920
programming. Um. Oh you know
what I didn't pull up, Kyle.

484
00:45:30.039 --> 00:45:35.239
Did you ever hear the song where
they're talking about um equity and one of

485
00:45:35.280 --> 00:45:37.559
the characters is Ross and it's the
two Australian chicks singing it. No,

486
00:45:38.719 --> 00:45:44.079
he thought it was the greatest piece
of audio ever. Oh man, now

487
00:45:44.119 --> 00:45:46.920
I gotta find I don't even know
what that would be called in the system.

488
00:45:47.000 --> 00:45:55.920
It's from like two months ago,
but I'll find. I will attempt

489
00:45:55.960 --> 00:45:59.320
to find it. But let me
let me go on the path I was

490
00:45:59.360 --> 00:46:02.559
going. So, yes, there
you go in the Transformers. It's a

491
00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:07.079
whole there's a whole segment of one
of the shows where they're talking about being

492
00:46:07.159 --> 00:46:15.159
binary and stuff. And then somebody
corrected me. Apparently apparently there were a

493
00:46:15.199 --> 00:46:19.880
couple transformers, one a decepticon named
Astro could be both a spaceship and a

494
00:46:19.920 --> 00:46:25.639
train, and an autobody could be
a car and a helicopter. So so

495
00:46:25.719 --> 00:46:29.199
there you go. We didn't even
know it back in the day when we

496
00:46:29.199 --> 00:46:31.880
were kids. Man, we had
no Optimix Prime. We'll have to add

497
00:46:31.920 --> 00:46:40.119
an X to that Optimix prime.
See see how much better all the cartoons

498
00:46:40.119 --> 00:46:45.679
are getting for your kids, and
it's everywhere. They just had. Netflix

499
00:46:45.719 --> 00:46:52.159
has that show with the Ridley Jones
or whatever for preschoolers. And one of

500
00:46:52.159 --> 00:47:07.400
the characters who's a bison, just
came out as non binary or he doesn't

501
00:47:07.519 --> 00:47:15.000
feel right to me. Sorry,
let me tell you what bison are.

502
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:22.119
Bison are delicious, but they're not
running around having he gets you know the

503
00:47:22.159 --> 00:47:25.920
pronouns right. They're delicious and they're
fun to watch. Tourists get too close

504
00:47:27.000 --> 00:47:35.599
to other than that, don't care
what's this other? See Kyle, you're

505
00:47:36.079 --> 00:47:39.000
how old is your youngest? You're
out of this hell? Oh and I

506
00:47:39.039 --> 00:47:44.519
feel so lucky about this. My
youngest just turned fourteen yesterday. Actually,

507
00:47:44.559 --> 00:47:47.519
all right, so you're you're out
of this hell? Done with it because

508
00:47:47.519 --> 00:47:51.000
some of this stuff I don't know. I don't know how I wouldn't lose

509
00:47:51.039 --> 00:47:54.000
my damn mind listening. What is
this from Disney Junior. It's a song

510
00:47:54.079 --> 00:48:00.400
for the kids about micro impressions.
Come on, hey, Gabriel, I

511
00:48:00.440 --> 00:48:05.079
didn't know that was your mom.
Your skin is so much darker than hers.

512
00:48:05.400 --> 00:48:08.559
Hold it. Did that comment make
you feel unomfortable? That's a micro

513
00:48:08.599 --> 00:48:15.280
aggression? What's a microaggression? A
microaggression is when someone says it does something

514
00:48:15.320 --> 00:48:17.639
that makes you feel bad, sometimes
just because of your race. But you

515
00:48:17.679 --> 00:48:21.840
know what, he's wrong. It
should be proud of your skin. It's

516
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:25.920
what makes you you, I know, just how you feel lovely sad?

517
00:48:25.440 --> 00:48:30.360
And he said that aful thing and
you don't know what to do. That's

518
00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:36.000
not okay to say it. That's
a beautiful skin to then you're fussing a

519
00:48:36.159 --> 00:48:39.280
problem with it. I can't,
I can't. It's Friday. I'm not

520
00:48:39.320 --> 00:48:45.239
gonna do this to myself and everyone
else did she? Was she derogatory towards

521
00:48:45.280 --> 00:48:49.519
the girl's skin color? By the
way, in that clip, it was

522
00:48:49.599 --> 00:48:52.320
just a little you know, a
little kid talking to another little kid,

523
00:48:52.559 --> 00:48:58.960
right, making an observation about,
you know something that there's little graces probably

524
00:48:59.079 --> 00:49:04.440
doesn't do what adult brain does.
And go okay, or most of the

525
00:49:04.480 --> 00:49:07.519
time just ignore the situation. But
if we start to process it, one

526
00:49:07.519 --> 00:49:10.920
of two things arises in our mind
that if I've never met her father,

527
00:49:12.000 --> 00:49:16.400
perhaps her father is black, right, because right, momskin was lighter than

528
00:49:16.440 --> 00:49:22.920
her skin, right. Or there's
the possibility that it's a step parents situation

529
00:49:22.119 --> 00:49:27.559
or adopted. But mostly just don't
care. But little kids care and ask

530
00:49:27.639 --> 00:49:36.239
about stuff. They're not microaggressing you. They see something which doesn't compute with

531
00:49:36.280 --> 00:49:39.519
their little kid brain because you know, they don't have the totality of experience

532
00:49:39.559 --> 00:49:46.679
there. And yeah, I just
believe I had a kid, I'd just

533
00:49:46.719 --> 00:49:50.400
be like, no, you're outside
all day with a stick and some mud.

534
00:49:50.559 --> 00:49:55.039
Just have fun. Choose your own
adventure. Here's mister Rogers on VHS

535
00:49:55.079 --> 00:50:02.480
something Man Something that's craziness all right
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight

536
00:50:02.599 --> 00:50:09.440
seven four. The world is going
on? Uh, coming up on the

537
00:50:09.480 --> 00:50:14.159
show Pete Calendar. He'll be joining
us at eight o five. Don't want

538
00:50:14.159 --> 00:50:19.480
to miss that. We got all
sorts of fun stuff to get into.

539
00:50:20.400 --> 00:50:25.039
Also check this out. This guy
California ends up in the in the stack

540
00:50:25.119 --> 00:50:30.360
this much, but it did just
to just give you more of a highlight

541
00:50:30.360 --> 00:50:35.440
of how well things are going in
in California. This guy works at Vaughns.

542
00:50:36.119 --> 00:50:39.119
Vaughns is like the big grocery store
chain there. Okay, it's gonna

543
00:50:39.159 --> 00:50:43.079
be your standard, middle of the
road grocery store. When I when I

544
00:50:43.119 --> 00:50:46.000
was down there for school, we
had a Vaughns right near me and that's

545
00:50:46.000 --> 00:50:52.360
where I did him, a shopping
standard grocery store. But it's in California,

546
00:50:52.480 --> 00:50:55.559
so also it deals with a lot
of theft. People coming in loading

547
00:50:55.639 --> 00:51:00.400
up carts, just walking the hell
out of there, people shoplifting other stuff

548
00:51:00.440 --> 00:51:04.320
they had. You know, things
are all up in cases. You know,

549
00:51:04.320 --> 00:51:08.559
it's it's the dream. Well,
this guy worked, worked, being

550
00:51:08.599 --> 00:51:13.239
the operative word at one of those
Vaughans. Wait till you hear his story.

551
00:51:13.920 --> 00:51:23.119
He's fired now. Just doomed man, Just a doomed, doomed place.

552
00:51:23.599 --> 00:51:27.840
And it's so beautiful too. It's
such a tragedy. More on that

553
00:51:27.880 --> 00:51:42.039
in a moment your day Smarter and
celebrating ten years and keeping you better informed.

554
00:51:42.320 --> 00:51:47.280
One oh six one FM Talk and
News Talk n w PTI more with

555
00:51:47.519 --> 00:51:54.880
Casey starts now all right, seven
thirty six, Good morning, everybody,

556
00:51:54.880 --> 00:52:00.679
Happy Friday, coming up in a
half hour peek calendar, radio buddy who

557
00:52:01.119 --> 00:52:05.920
Friday, chitchat thing and mobob we
do that'll be happen in eight oh five.

558
00:52:06.000 --> 00:52:13.880
We got lots to get into a
few other things, a few other

559
00:52:13.960 --> 00:52:16.239
things on here. We got to
uh, we got to talk about first.

560
00:52:16.679 --> 00:52:24.159
First, NYPD is literally being investigated
by the They have like a watchdog

561
00:52:24.199 --> 00:52:32.280
oversight thing up there. Why are
they investigating the NYPD because the NYPD didn't

562
00:52:32.320 --> 00:52:40.519
immediately arrest Daniel Penny and charge him. That's right, a spokeswoman for the

563
00:52:40.519 --> 00:52:45.920
Civilian Complaint Review Board. Daniel Penny, by the way, is the marine

564
00:52:45.159 --> 00:52:50.760
on the subway who restrained You know, the guy was just trying to be

565
00:52:50.800 --> 00:52:57.719
a Michael Jackson impersonator and wasn't violently
threatening people and has a giant history that

566
00:52:57.719 --> 00:53:01.000
while Penny may not have known about, if you watched the whole video,

567
00:53:04.519 --> 00:53:12.039
guy wasn't just moonwalking. So but
a spokeswoman for the Civilian Complaint Board confirmed

568
00:53:12.079 --> 00:53:17.960
Thursday that a complaint has been filed
with the agency in a formal probe is

569
00:53:19.039 --> 00:53:22.719
underway to see if there was any
wrong doing in the decision to not charge

570
00:53:22.760 --> 00:53:29.480
Penny after he was questioned by police
following the death of Jordan Neely and then

571
00:53:29.480 --> 00:53:31.679
obviously, you know, all the
protesters came out. It's the it's the

572
00:53:31.719 --> 00:53:37.079
current Michael Brown caused a jour and
Alvin Bragg, of course, he had

573
00:53:37.079 --> 00:53:44.519
to jump on the bandwagon. So
now he's charged. Is so he's turned

574
00:53:44.599 --> 00:53:53.000
himself intoday and is expected to be
charged with second agree manslaughter and h I

575
00:53:53.039 --> 00:53:58.480
don't know. I'd like to be
surprised because it's New York and maybe New

576
00:53:58.559 --> 00:54:01.920
Yorkers have had enough of this crow, but I'm not real hopeful for the

577
00:54:02.000 --> 00:54:09.519
dude the second degree. They may
be able to get it to a point

578
00:54:09.519 --> 00:54:14.519
where he doesn't go to jail,
which of course that in and of itself.

579
00:54:14.559 --> 00:54:22.000
I'm sure we'll start some sort of
protest that'll be mostly peaceful, but

580
00:54:22.800 --> 00:54:25.039
Bragg. Not only is Bragg going
to go forward with this because of course

581
00:54:25.079 --> 00:54:30.880
he is, that's who he is, but also they're gonna go after the

582
00:54:31.000 --> 00:54:36.199
NYPD because this is what the activists
wants, so they will continue to erode

583
00:54:37.039 --> 00:54:43.559
once again the ability of law enforcement
to do their job. And my question

584
00:54:43.639 --> 00:54:45.719
is, well, you're going to
charge him, are you going to You're

585
00:54:45.719 --> 00:54:49.519
gonna You're gonna charge the other people
in that video who are participating and holding

586
00:54:49.519 --> 00:54:55.840
the guy down because one of those
is he's a black dude. I'm just

587
00:54:55.880 --> 00:54:59.599
curious. I just I want to
know what the activists want, because this

588
00:54:59.639 --> 00:55:01.320
won't be enough. They want him
charged with, you know, needle in

589
00:55:01.360 --> 00:55:07.519
the arm murder or something. The
maximum penalty for that charge would be up

590
00:55:07.519 --> 00:55:10.519
to like fifteen years, so it's
not like it's just a hand slap he's

591
00:55:10.599 --> 00:55:21.800
charged with. Ironically, of course, that's this is where you're going to

592
00:55:21.840 --> 00:55:27.880
expend your energy, and you probably
wouldn't have crazy people costing folks on the

593
00:55:27.920 --> 00:55:31.719
subway if you were actually committed to
I don't know, locking criminals up.

594
00:55:32.280 --> 00:55:37.119
I think the part where he tried
to snatch a seven year old previously probably

595
00:55:37.119 --> 00:55:42.079
should have landed him a little jail
time. I'm pretty sure if I rolled

596
00:55:42.119 --> 00:55:45.400
into a Harris Teeter and try to, you know, steal your seven year

597
00:55:45.400 --> 00:55:54.320
old, that's probably something I should
go to jail four. Right, We

598
00:55:54.400 --> 00:55:58.360
used to call that kidnapping back in
the day, So I don't know,

599
00:55:59.519 --> 00:56:01.920
but yep, no, they're gonna
move forward with that, and uh it's

600
00:56:02.000 --> 00:56:07.920
New York and uh, dude's probably
screwed. But I would love to be

601
00:56:07.960 --> 00:56:12.039
surprised on this here, and you
know what, I'd love to hear more

602
00:56:12.079 --> 00:56:16.559
information and evidence too. It would
excuse me. UM, I told you

603
00:56:16.599 --> 00:56:23.159
I got a buddy who um worked
worked well military, but then he worked

604
00:56:23.519 --> 00:56:30.519
in the federal prison system and he
was talking about how the you know,

605
00:56:30.559 --> 00:56:32.800
the specifics around a chokehold and all
that stuff. He didn't even learn that

606
00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:37.239
in the military. He did learn
it, um when he when he started

607
00:56:37.280 --> 00:56:43.599
working for the federal prison system,
and he immediately looked at that one.

608
00:56:43.679 --> 00:56:46.000
Nope, that's not the right way
to do that. But you have does

609
00:56:46.119 --> 00:56:52.280
does this marine know that? I
don't know. So these are the kinds

610
00:56:52.280 --> 00:56:55.440
of things that they'll probably get into. But ultimately you could yeah, you

611
00:56:55.480 --> 00:57:00.079
could see this coming, all right. Eight eight eight nine seven eight seven

612
00:57:00.239 --> 00:57:10.760
four. Check this out. This
guy is a Vaughn's worker in California,

613
00:57:12.119 --> 00:57:15.280
all right. His name is Austin
Cheryl. He's twenty three. He's worked

614
00:57:15.280 --> 00:57:24.239
for Vaughns for three years. He
um, and he also has m Is

615
00:57:24.239 --> 00:57:28.880
it a cognitive impairment? I can't. I don't know exactly what it is.

616
00:57:29.880 --> 00:57:34.480
I don't know if it's an autism
spectrum or or what but but for

617
00:57:34.519 --> 00:57:38.960
all practical purposes, he goes to
work, does his job, and since

618
00:57:39.079 --> 00:57:43.880
the new year, right, we're
just going to start since the new year,

619
00:57:44.639 --> 00:57:49.719
so five five months and twelve days
in, well, four months and

620
00:57:49.760 --> 00:57:57.920
twelve days in. This is what
has happened to mister Cheryl. Back on

621
00:57:58.039 --> 00:58:01.880
January nineteenth. He's taking track,
goes into the alley behind the store.

622
00:58:01.880 --> 00:58:07.800
Outside there's two people that are attempting
to steal pallets and pallets with stuff on

623
00:58:07.880 --> 00:58:13.519
him. I guess there's been a
delivery. He tells him not to,

624
00:58:14.159 --> 00:58:16.679
So what do they do? One
of them punches him in the face,

625
00:58:17.840 --> 00:58:22.760
the other one pepper sprays him,
and then they give him a few kicks

626
00:58:23.880 --> 00:58:30.119
before he's able to scramble back inside
and shut the door. Well, he

627
00:58:30.239 --> 00:58:32.639
tells his manager, they called the
police. There you go, all right.

628
00:58:32.679 --> 00:58:38.599
That's that's number one. Number two
happened March seventeenth. Again, he's

629
00:58:38.639 --> 00:58:43.960
taking trash out, goes out to
the dumpster. There is literally a dude

630
00:58:43.960 --> 00:58:50.360
in the alley waiting for him,
or waiting for anybody I suppose, who

631
00:58:50.400 --> 00:58:57.440
pulls out a knife and stabs him. Except and this was lucky he stabbed

632
00:58:57.519 --> 00:59:04.360
him. But mister Shery had a
rolled up like a roll of trash bags,

633
00:59:05.639 --> 00:59:08.239
right, and he had it in
his pocket of his apron, and

634
00:59:08.400 --> 00:59:15.599
that's what the knife went into.
How lucky is that because if not I

635
00:59:15.639 --> 00:59:17.519
had gone right in his gut,
and who knows what would have happened.

636
00:59:19.360 --> 00:59:23.559
So I ended up stabbing the trash
bags. So that's incident number two.

637
00:59:23.760 --> 00:59:28.119
All the while, he's telling his
manager and he's telling him like he's got

638
00:59:28.119 --> 00:59:32.119
like PTSD from this. He almost
died, he can't sleep, he's terrified,

639
00:59:32.800 --> 00:59:36.480
and they're just like, God,
yeah, you're fine, You're fine.

640
00:59:38.679 --> 00:59:44.039
So just two weeks later, he's
back at work and there is a

641
00:59:44.079 --> 00:59:51.119
man who is going bonkers in the
store. He's inebriated or he's dealing with

642
00:59:51.159 --> 00:59:54.960
mental health issues they don't know at
the time, and he was harassing female

643
00:59:54.960 --> 01:00:00.280
shoppers. He's run around screaming at
him. Cheryl is kind of a big

644
01:00:00.400 --> 01:00:02.639
dude. Happened to be in one
of the aisles where this guy came into

645
01:00:02.679 --> 01:00:06.559
and was screaming at a woman,
and he went over to see what was

646
01:00:06.599 --> 01:00:08.880
wrong, and he said, at
that point, you could see it on

647
01:00:08.880 --> 01:00:12.840
the video. The guy gets right
in his face. He's cussing him out.

648
01:00:12.840 --> 01:00:17.159
He's threatening to kill him, and
Cheryl's just standing there and he backs.

649
01:00:17.360 --> 01:00:22.000
Cheryl backs away. The guy follows, gets in his face again,

650
01:00:22.719 --> 01:00:27.880
screaming at him, spitting in his
face. Cheryl backs away again. The

651
01:00:28.000 --> 01:00:31.000
third time he gets up to him, he makes physical contact with Cheryl,

652
01:00:31.039 --> 01:00:44.440
and Cheryl instinctively pushes him off.
Eventually, the guy retreated. Police came.

653
01:00:44.519 --> 01:00:47.519
They apprehend him in the parking lot. Sure enough, inebriated. All

654
01:00:47.599 --> 01:00:51.840
right, So what do you think
happened after that? Well, Cheryl said

655
01:00:51.880 --> 01:00:55.920
he actually filed acclaim for workman's comp
following all three of the assaults and almost

656
01:00:57.000 --> 01:01:00.760
being stabbed to death because he was
having nightmares and panic at tax and nobody

657
01:01:00.760 --> 01:01:06.960
at the store seemed to care.
So he takes the time off the worker's

658
01:01:06.960 --> 01:01:12.960
top time off, goes and avails
himself of some mental health services. Returns

659
01:01:13.000 --> 01:01:21.000
to work nine days later and finds
out he's suspended pending an investigation, and

660
01:01:21.079 --> 01:01:24.159
then another nine days after that they
terminate him because, quote, he touched

661
01:01:24.159 --> 01:01:30.079
a customer. That's the California you
get, that's the experience you get.

662
01:01:30.079 --> 01:01:35.440
And Van should be ashamed of themselves. Man, this is exactly the guy

663
01:01:35.480 --> 01:01:37.239
you want is a guy who wanted
to work for you. He enjoyed his

664
01:01:37.360 --> 01:01:40.199
job, he almost got stabbed at
death taking the trash out, and you

665
01:01:40.239 --> 01:01:45.800
fire him. Good job, everybody. Seven forty five Race Stagic from the

666
01:01:45.800 --> 01:01:49.320
weather channels. You're ray, we
got a problem. Yeah, we got

667
01:01:49.320 --> 01:01:53.119
a problem. So the FBI of
Italy, whatever that organization is, is

668
01:01:53.199 --> 01:02:00.639
investigating because while the price of wheat
hasn't gone up, pasta is. Uh,

669
01:02:00.679 --> 01:02:04.880
they're having a ration pasta. They're
running out of pasta and pasta the

670
01:02:04.920 --> 01:02:09.599
cost of it's up like almost twenty
percent. What the hell? How would

671
01:02:09.599 --> 01:02:13.039
you like to be that poor bastard
to throw all that pasta out along the

672
01:02:13.079 --> 01:02:17.000
creek the other day. Yeah,
we're gonna get a lust to shortage.

673
01:02:17.400 --> 01:02:22.000
I'm thinking World War three is nigh. So have you had a week in

674
01:02:22.039 --> 01:02:27.000
your career? We've had two pasta
stories in the same week. But that's

675
01:02:27.079 --> 01:02:30.760
strange, I'm sure because Ross likes
to talk about olive garden all the time.

676
01:02:30.800 --> 01:02:34.400
So I got you, I got
you. Well, they should be

677
01:02:34.480 --> 01:02:37.639
making it from scratch anyway, so
maybe there's a shortage. Ah here,

678
01:02:37.679 --> 01:02:42.360
we did I tell you? Or
did I tell you? I was saying

679
01:02:42.400 --> 01:02:45.480
that's what Italians are gonna say.
But they all buy the premade anyway.

680
01:02:45.480 --> 01:02:47.440
If you ever go to Italy,
there's so much premade pasta for sales,

681
01:02:47.440 --> 01:02:52.960
not even funny. Yeah, it's
I think I posted on Twitter about it.

682
01:02:52.000 --> 01:02:55.119
I'm like, I just thought Grandma
made at all and it's just it's

683
01:02:55.360 --> 01:03:00.920
like two frigging aisles in this one
story. Yeah it's two. H it's

684
01:03:00.760 --> 01:03:05.320
once a week. You know,
we pasta like maybe twice a year.

685
01:03:05.440 --> 01:03:07.440
We actually make it. So it's
great when you make it, don't get

686
01:03:07.440 --> 01:03:10.039
me wrong, Man, it is. Oh, it's it's a different experience,

687
01:03:10.159 --> 01:03:14.320
especially nice nice stick noodles. I
like them that one. There's Italian,

688
01:03:14.320 --> 01:03:17.079
the Italian restaurant that I really like. Um, they make their own

689
01:03:17.119 --> 01:03:20.800
pasta, but only three of the
pastas they make, so you got to

690
01:03:20.800 --> 01:03:23.119
know which ones you're ordering. But
man, what a difference. If it's

691
01:03:23.119 --> 01:03:28.239
fresh pasta. I love it all
right anyway, Well so they're gonna write

692
01:03:28.280 --> 01:03:32.760
in Italy or something, Okay,
but meanwhile we're here. All's good.

693
01:03:32.920 --> 01:03:37.639
Huh, Yeah, all's good.
This afternoon. I still, like I

694
01:03:37.679 --> 01:03:39.159
was thinking the last couple of days, think there'll be some pop up shower

695
01:03:39.199 --> 01:03:44.639
thunder showers, probably from the triad
at west end of the mountains, a

696
01:03:44.679 --> 01:03:47.239
guidance suggesting that, you know,
as they try to come east, it'll

697
01:03:47.280 --> 01:03:52.559
be after peak heating, and they'll
diminish a bit as you get toward the

698
01:03:52.599 --> 01:03:54.800
triangle. So there'll be a difference
if you're going west to east with that

699
01:03:54.920 --> 01:03:59.239
chance of showers. Better west today, warm and humid. Otherwise load amid

700
01:03:59.320 --> 01:04:02.119
eighties tonight the low sixties, and
we'll have everybody get under the gun tomorrow

701
01:04:02.119 --> 01:04:05.360
in the afternoon especially, got kind
of like this week, low trying to

702
01:04:05.400 --> 01:04:10.199
come over the top of us,
and in the afternoon some widely scattered showers

703
01:04:10.239 --> 01:04:12.639
thunderstorms. Now it does rain for
hours and hours, you know what the

704
01:04:12.719 --> 01:04:15.800
drill. It rains, you get
mad, and then it stops and the

705
01:04:15.840 --> 01:04:17.119
sun may come out and it dries
out and you're like, oh, okay,

706
01:04:17.159 --> 01:04:19.320
it's not going to rain all day. So that's kind of what we're

707
01:04:19.320 --> 01:04:24.199
doing Saturday and even on Sunday.
But there's less of a chance for Mother's

708
01:04:24.280 --> 01:04:26.880
Day Sunday, which is good news. It's still near eighty and I think

709
01:04:26.920 --> 01:04:29.800
early next week it's going to a
pretty nice week. The first three days

710
01:04:29.800 --> 01:04:32.519
at least look pretty pleasant with some
comfortable temperatures. Might not get out of

711
01:04:32.559 --> 01:04:35.159
the low seventies on Monday, maybe
a few showers. Then Tuesday, Wednesday

712
01:04:35.199 --> 01:04:39.320
look pretty good. Let mom know
you love her, take her out for

713
01:04:39.400 --> 01:04:44.239
ghost on Sunday and a giant could. Probably I could. I'll have to

714
01:04:44.280 --> 01:04:46.719
take the mother in law. But
oh, I'm not going to make the

715
01:04:46.880 --> 01:04:50.719
Yeah, I'm not making the eleven
hundred mile trip. So all right,

716
01:04:50.880 --> 01:04:55.000
Well, you do what you gotta
do. And if you said I will

717
01:04:55.320 --> 01:04:57.920
talk to you, then we'll talk
to you one more time today. So

718
01:04:57.920 --> 01:05:10.840
sounds good man, all right,
we'll come back. Hang on celebrating ten

719
01:05:10.920 --> 01:05:15.320
years of keeping you connected. This
is ninety four five WPTI in the Triad

720
01:05:15.519 --> 01:05:23.440
and one oh six one FM Talk
in the Triangle. Interesting ruling up in

721
01:05:23.800 --> 01:05:28.519
Virginia on Wednesday might be flying under
the radar for a lot of folks.

722
01:05:28.559 --> 01:05:33.880
A federal judge ruled on Wednesday that
federal laws requiring individuals to be at least

723
01:05:33.880 --> 01:05:45.079
twenty one years of age to purchase
handguns are unconstitutional because the statutes and regulations

724
01:05:45.079 --> 01:05:49.159
in question are not consistent with our
nation's history and tradition. They therefore cannot

725
01:05:49.199 --> 01:05:57.480
stand, wrote US Distory Judge Robert
Payne. He's a H. W.

726
01:05:57.760 --> 01:06:05.320
Bush appointee. Payne's ruling came in
a lawsuit filed by John Frasier against the

727
01:06:05.880 --> 01:06:11.440
Bureau of ATF. Essentially, Fraser
is rejected when he attempted to purchase a

728
01:06:11.480 --> 01:06:15.280
handgun last May because he was twenty
and not twenty one. Basically made the

729
01:06:15.360 --> 01:06:18.639
argument that if you're protecting a firearm, a firearms, a firearm, and

730
01:06:18.639 --> 01:06:23.079
if an eighteen year old who's an
adult can which is already even of itself

731
01:06:23.119 --> 01:06:26.480
an age restriction, this is where
I wonder if this is gonna get a

732
01:06:26.480 --> 01:06:30.679
little slippery. And I don't know, I don't know, but it's,

733
01:06:31.119 --> 01:06:34.079
you know, it's it's the kind
of it's it's one of those kinds of

734
01:06:34.119 --> 01:06:39.960
cases that could find itself a test
case moving up. And it's not the

735
01:06:40.000 --> 01:06:43.519
only ruling that maybe a test case. This is why w RL is so

736
01:06:43.639 --> 01:06:45.199
clinchy on this. So I'm gonna
I was gonna get into this with Pete

737
01:06:45.239 --> 01:06:49.840
just a little too uh. This
more versus Harper, which is basically a

738
01:06:50.280 --> 01:06:56.960
jerrymandering lawsuit. Right, even though
the State Supreme Court in North Carolina has

739
01:06:59.320 --> 01:07:05.400
revisit did decision and on another case, this one continues to be on a

740
01:07:05.440 --> 01:07:13.880
pathway to the US Supreme Court,
and basically everybody but but more wants to

741
01:07:15.559 --> 01:07:18.920
wants to pull it off the docket. And I'll tell you why. Let

742
01:07:18.920 --> 01:07:23.440
me explain to you why activists don't
want this thing going to the Supreme Court.

743
01:07:24.000 --> 01:07:29.519
They don't want the Supreme Court ruling
in a way where they can't file

744
01:07:30.480 --> 01:07:34.159
gobs of lawsuits. Right. They
don't need a definitive ruling on jerrymandering,

745
01:07:34.320 --> 01:07:41.000
basically saying that and more specifically about
legislative power, because that's a worst case

746
01:07:41.079 --> 01:07:45.960
scenario for them, And the way
that they write this article too, it's

747
01:07:46.000 --> 01:07:53.519
just garbage man. Without getting into
too many of the technicalities, the case

748
01:07:53.599 --> 01:07:58.320
began it as an appeal of a
jerrymandering lawsuit in North Carolina. They appealed

749
01:07:58.440 --> 01:08:02.159
arguing state courts shouldn't be allowed to
rule the legislature's actions on constitutional it's a

750
01:08:02.199 --> 01:08:08.199
separation of powers issue. And then
this line right here quote the argument based

751
01:08:08.199 --> 01:08:13.400
on an obscure political theory called the
independence day legislature doctrine. That is not

752
01:08:13.519 --> 01:08:16.840
an obscure theory. You may disagree
with it. But that's not some fringe

753
01:08:16.960 --> 01:08:25.159
theory. That's the position of quite
a few lawmakers, specifically GOP lawmakers.

754
01:08:25.319 --> 01:08:30.640
Is it self serving? You bet
it is. Ironically, it's a theory

755
01:08:30.640 --> 01:08:34.359
that's been argued from the other side
based on the makeup of certain legislatures.

756
01:08:35.319 --> 01:08:41.479
But it would require the US Supreme
Court to quote undue generations of legal precedents

757
01:08:41.520 --> 01:08:46.279
surrounding the idea of checks and balances, not necessarily it. Actually, this

758
01:08:46.399 --> 01:08:50.600
is answering a gray area, and
the problem is is you're an activist group.

759
01:08:50.640 --> 01:08:55.920
The gray areas where you thrive.
If you're looking to manipulate things right

760
01:08:55.960 --> 01:09:00.439
around voting time. This is a
gray area where you thrive. So if

761
01:09:00.479 --> 01:09:09.279
you get a definitive answer on this
and it prevails in favor of GOP lawmakers

762
01:09:09.279 --> 01:09:15.319
in North Carolina, then filing all
of these lawsuits all across the nation becomes

763
01:09:15.399 --> 01:09:19.000
much more difficult because there's recent precedent
from the US Supreme Court on this.

764
01:09:19.960 --> 01:09:25.960
And I'm dumbing it down quite a
bit, but that's the gist here in

765
01:09:26.000 --> 01:09:29.279
my opinion. Maybe I'm totally wrong. Maybe some lawyer wants to call and

766
01:09:29.359 --> 01:09:33.159
correct me, and that's fine,
but that's where I'm at on that real

767
01:09:33.239 --> 01:09:35.840
quick, Jamal. I just got
about a minute, go ahead. I

768
01:09:35.840 --> 01:09:40.159
didn't even have that. I got
thirty seconds. Hey, kay see,

769
01:09:40.199 --> 01:09:43.439
I just wanted to say this,
this wall for them to convict, to

770
01:09:43.600 --> 01:09:47.239
try to charge mist opinion. But
this have been going on for years.

771
01:09:47.279 --> 01:09:51.199
They have been trying to condition people
and a lot of black folks. We

772
01:09:51.319 --> 01:09:56.479
don't like this igner state in the
community, our community display. But what

773
01:09:56.680 --> 01:10:00.479
people trying to do is normalize.
It's ignors like you the last past,

774
01:10:00.560 --> 01:10:03.640
Jamal, Jamal, I, I
just I'm sorry, man, I gotta

775
01:10:03.640 --> 01:10:40.920
go to break. I got a
hard break. Okay, all right,

776
01:10:40.960 --> 01:10:45.079
good morning everybody, and uh happy
Friday eight seven now case O Day radio

777
01:10:45.199 --> 01:10:54.880
program Mother's Day Weekend staring at you
just out just one more day, just

778
01:10:55.039 --> 01:10:57.960
one more day and you can go
do all the Mother's Day stuff and to

779
01:10:58.039 --> 01:11:02.119
talk about that and much sports are
radio Buddy to the South Peak calendar from

780
01:11:02.159 --> 01:11:06.680
mid days on WBT and via the
iHeart Radio app, Like take your mom

781
01:11:06.720 --> 01:11:13.920
to an abortion rally. Yeah there's
options, right, I'm look, yeah,

782
01:11:13.920 --> 01:11:16.560
it's what a way to celebrate Mother's
Day, Mother's Day weekend, you

783
01:11:16.600 --> 01:11:21.800
know, just it just take her
to an abortion rally celebrate the quote reproductive

784
01:11:23.840 --> 01:11:29.520
healthcare, which spoiler alert, abortion
is not reproduction. I don't know who

785
01:11:29.560 --> 01:11:33.039
needs to hear that, but apparently
they do. You do it more than

786
01:11:33.079 --> 01:11:36.720
once you're reproducing the abortion, you
know the Oh that's a fair point.

787
01:11:36.720 --> 01:11:42.720
I hadn't considered that. So yeah, so multiple abortions is reproductive healthcare.

788
01:11:43.399 --> 01:11:45.960
I guess. Yeah. It's the
way the left uses language like this that

789
01:11:46.039 --> 01:11:49.199
you know, if you control the
language, you control the debate. And

790
01:11:49.520 --> 01:11:55.560
they're constantly trying these different words,
different um you know, branding efforts,

791
01:11:55.600 --> 01:12:00.720
euphemisms, right, they in order
to mask what is what is occurring,

792
01:12:00.840 --> 01:12:05.319
right, I think that's um,
it occurs in I mean illegal immigration debate,

793
01:12:05.359 --> 01:12:09.720
the same thing, right, You
can't call them illegal aliens any longer

794
01:12:09.760 --> 01:12:15.720
that it became undocumented now migrants and
such and like, I like unauthorized immigrants.

795
01:12:15.720 --> 01:12:18.680
I think that's a fair that's a
fair description. It's you know,

796
01:12:18.720 --> 01:12:26.720
putting commuication. You gotta go California's
undocumented traveler, Oh my goodness, yeah,

797
01:12:26.800 --> 01:12:30.520
right, because they're they're traveling CE
So well, yeah, I guess

798
01:12:30.560 --> 01:12:33.520
that's yeah. Well, and it
like homeless, you can't say homeless right

799
01:12:33.560 --> 01:12:38.640
now, if you know people who
are experiencing houselessness or something like that.

800
01:12:38.720 --> 01:12:43.479
It's right, yeah, the constant
manipulation of the language, um, and

801
01:12:43.640 --> 01:12:45.119
it's done in order to you know, put people on their you know,

802
01:12:45.520 --> 01:12:50.319
uh, on their heels, so
they are constantly worried about saying the wrong

803
01:12:50.359 --> 01:12:55.119
thing or offending uh and thereby being
on the quote, you know, wrong

804
01:12:55.279 --> 01:12:59.640
side of the issue or history as
it were. And uh. They Once

805
01:12:59.640 --> 01:13:02.119
you can get people into that kind
of position, then you know, you

806
01:13:02.239 --> 01:13:06.439
control the course of the discussion and
you can lead them where you would like

807
01:13:06.479 --> 01:13:11.119
to lead them. And that's precisely
what the left does, particularly on the

808
01:13:11.119 --> 01:13:15.520
abortion topic, where you see these
kinds of word games played all the time,

809
01:13:15.560 --> 01:13:18.680
and of course, you know,
their allies in the media amplify and

810
01:13:18.760 --> 01:13:25.960
regurgitate the very uh, you know, presumed euphemisms as truth. Right.

811
01:13:26.000 --> 01:13:29.680
They just they they they part the
same lines that are fed to them by

812
01:13:29.720 --> 01:13:34.079
the Democrats and it's it's it's super
frustrating, but it's part for the course,

813
01:13:34.479 --> 01:13:38.199
but that's sort of the nature of
the game. Right now. What

814
01:13:38.199 --> 01:13:41.239
what does Cooper hope to gain from
this? I mean, I would understand

815
01:13:41.239 --> 01:13:45.840
if there was some strategies. It
just pure fundraise and pub he's I mean,

816
01:13:45.880 --> 01:13:49.960
he's not changing anyone's minds. No, No, I think there's um.

817
01:13:50.000 --> 01:13:55.039
I think there's probably some bit of
a flex occurring, like, hey,

818
01:13:55.079 --> 01:13:58.199
I'm not a lane duck. You
know. Uh see, if we

819
01:13:58.279 --> 01:14:01.239
can you know, mobilize the truths, maybe intimidate and bully some people,

820
01:14:01.279 --> 01:14:06.199
because remember, it's not stochastic terrorism
when the left does it, it's totally

821
01:14:06.199 --> 01:14:11.760
different. So when you whip up
a mob angry about something and you catastrophize

822
01:14:11.800 --> 01:14:15.239
everything, you know, this is
actually a ban of all abortions, when

823
01:14:15.279 --> 01:14:19.920
it's actually not, and it's actually
a very moderate position. It's a compromised

824
01:14:19.960 --> 01:14:26.640
position that the Republicans have offered up
and passed, and none of that matters.

825
01:14:27.239 --> 01:14:29.840
And I think it is fundraising,
you know. I think that's the

826
01:14:30.840 --> 01:14:33.039
primary benefit, is that they can
fundraise off of it. But I think

827
01:14:33.079 --> 01:14:40.760
they also believe that this is the
issue that prevented them from getting completely wiped

828
01:14:40.880 --> 01:14:45.159
out in the mid terms nationally.
And I think and it falls under this

829
01:14:45.239 --> 01:14:50.319
larger heading of healthcare, which I
think is why they keep saying abortion healthcare

830
01:14:50.479 --> 01:14:56.239
or reproductive healthcare. They keep throwing
the word healthcare in there, and I

831
01:14:56.319 --> 01:15:00.279
think it's because they believe that that
is a winning issue for them, going

832
01:15:00.319 --> 01:15:02.920
back to you know, Medicaid expansion, which is now going to be off

833
01:15:02.920 --> 01:15:08.079
the table for them. So they
have to try to connect healthcare to their

834
01:15:08.079 --> 01:15:11.880
electoral prospects and this is I think
a way that they do it. Plus

835
01:15:12.119 --> 01:15:15.960
it's a way that they can try
to drive a wedge between female voters in

836
01:15:15.239 --> 01:15:20.920
Republican U elected officials and candidates.
I think that's one of the one of

837
01:15:20.920 --> 01:15:25.239
the benefits they see. Well,
I do love the word game man,

838
01:15:25.720 --> 01:15:29.359
like, you know, gender affirming
healthcare is one of the other ways they

839
01:15:29.479 --> 01:15:36.720
like to twist that or Michael Jackson
themed hungry busker right right, So,

840
01:15:38.319 --> 01:15:44.520
um, is anyone surprised that that
brag charged that dude facing up to fifteen

841
01:15:44.600 --> 01:15:47.159
years he's expected to turn himself in
today? This uh, this marine this

842
01:15:47.640 --> 01:15:54.520
penny. Yeah, And I'd like
to be surprised and have the jury,

843
01:15:54.760 --> 01:15:58.920
which is made up of New Yorkers
who obviously are mostly Democrats. However,

844
01:15:59.720 --> 01:16:03.520
all so we're people who probably have
been spat on on the subway. I'd

845
01:16:03.560 --> 01:16:09.880
love them to maybe just nullify this. Am I dreaming or for what do

846
01:16:09.960 --> 01:16:13.560
you think. I think you're dreaming, But man, it would be a

847
01:16:13.600 --> 01:16:16.199
really that would be a really cool
dream, right to have the jury just

848
01:16:16.279 --> 01:16:19.479
be like, no, we've been
on the subway. We know exactly what

849
01:16:19.600 --> 01:16:25.600
happened, and now he didn't do
anything wrong here now and I don't know.

850
01:16:25.640 --> 01:16:27.319
I don't know what the letter of
the law is going to be and

851
01:16:27.359 --> 01:16:30.199
what they're going to prosecute. I
don't don't know all the details. And

852
01:16:30.199 --> 01:16:34.079
I never predict jury outcomes because I'm
terrible at it, So who knows what

853
01:16:34.119 --> 01:16:36.359
they will do. But yeah,
I mean the cards are going to be

854
01:16:36.399 --> 01:16:39.920
stacked against him, it being a
you know, a New York jury,

855
01:16:39.920 --> 01:16:44.800
and if Bragg tries to make this
a racialized kind of crime, the uh

856
01:16:45.279 --> 01:16:48.359
no, no, I mean it
is possible. It's possible. I mean

857
01:16:48.479 --> 01:16:53.359
I do know. Did he charge
any of the other people that helped?

858
01:16:53.920 --> 01:16:58.199
But you know, it's weird,
it's weird. I earlier I was wondering

859
01:16:58.239 --> 01:17:02.680
the same thing allowed because remember correctly
on the video, Yeah, it wasn't

860
01:17:02.680 --> 01:17:06.680
a bunch of white dudes, uh
it was. It was it was this

861
01:17:08.079 --> 01:17:14.119
racial melting pot that we so often
hear about that really was down there on

862
01:17:14.159 --> 01:17:17.359
the ground helping to restrain this guy. Yeah, like a united colors of

863
01:17:17.479 --> 01:17:24.239
Benetton. Uh kind of real you
know imagery there, really you know,

864
01:17:24.399 --> 01:17:29.039
unified in their attempt to you know, keep somebody who was saying that he

865
01:17:29.079 --> 01:17:30.640
didn't care if he went to jail, He didn't care if he went to

866
01:17:30.720 --> 01:17:34.039
jail for life. He was yelling
and screaming at people and accosting them on

867
01:17:34.039 --> 01:17:36.640
the subway. And that's the thing, like you said, like, if

868
01:17:36.640 --> 01:17:40.880
you're if you are in a big
city and you take mass transit, this

869
01:17:40.960 --> 01:17:45.039
is a regular recurrence for you.
And I heard, um there was a

870
01:17:45.079 --> 01:17:47.159
woman who was like, look,
I got an assaulted on the on the

871
01:17:47.199 --> 01:17:50.520
train. Some crazy person you know, elbowed me in the face and stuff.

872
01:17:50.520 --> 01:17:56.000
And that's just sort of the price
you pay for for living in Brooklyn.

873
01:17:56.079 --> 01:18:00.319
And yeah, and I'm just kind
of thinking, so that's that's the

874
01:18:00.319 --> 01:18:05.359
tradeoff, Like that's yeah, yeah, right, Is that going to go

875
01:18:05.359 --> 01:18:08.720
on the posters? Is that go
on the brochure? You know, come

876
01:18:08.760 --> 01:18:13.359
live in Brooklyn and you know,
you get the vibrant street life and simply

877
01:18:13.399 --> 01:18:16.199
for the price of you know,
being assaulted on a regular basis. And

878
01:18:16.239 --> 01:18:20.600
I don't know, if that's the
cell that the lefties think it is,

879
01:18:20.680 --> 01:18:24.359
I'm not sure. A lot of
people. I know a lot of people

880
01:18:24.399 --> 01:18:27.640
are not interested in it. There
was a story what Today about the assistant

881
01:18:27.680 --> 01:18:31.159
prosecutor fleeing Chicago. She's like,
I'm not raising my kids in this city.

882
01:18:31.319 --> 01:18:35.000
So I think people are starting to
kind of wake up to this,

883
01:18:35.000 --> 01:18:40.199
this bargain that they have been offered, and I don't think they are interested

884
01:18:40.600 --> 01:18:43.520
so much in it anymore. Well, so, okay, so you have

885
01:18:43.560 --> 01:18:45.399
to have urine thrown on you once
a year, maybe by a homeless person,

886
01:18:45.439 --> 01:18:50.600
but you do have access to like
artists and picklers, right, So

887
01:18:50.840 --> 01:18:56.840
I know that's that's the tradeoff.
It's riots or the the insanity there.

888
01:18:57.279 --> 01:19:00.960
I don't know. I would like
to think that a factors in to people's

889
01:19:00.960 --> 01:19:05.399
thought process, but as we've seen
up in New York with the Trump Ejean

890
01:19:05.560 --> 01:19:10.720
Carroll stuff, and I don't know
what the answer is to this pete because

891
01:19:11.159 --> 01:19:15.079
if if people could sit there and
just go which you already kind of can,

892
01:19:15.439 --> 01:19:18.279
you can claim that you can't get
a fair trial somewhere, and they've

893
01:19:18.279 --> 01:19:24.760
moved trials previously, but to the
extent that if you're a Republican charged in

894
01:19:24.800 --> 01:19:29.399
Washington, DC, or you're seeing
on the conservative side of an issue charged

895
01:19:29.439 --> 01:19:33.199
in New York, you don't stand
a chance. But I also don't know

896
01:19:33.279 --> 01:19:38.439
that you want to make it super
easy to move stuff, because any criminal

897
01:19:38.479 --> 01:19:42.800
defendant would then ask to go see
one of those woke sorrows das. Do

898
01:19:42.840 --> 01:19:45.479
you know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, So how do you deal

899
01:19:45.520 --> 01:19:48.640
with that? Well, maybe we
could come up with I don't know,

900
01:19:48.720 --> 01:19:55.079
like some sort of like a neutral
standard. I'm just spitballing here, but

901
01:19:55.239 --> 01:19:58.840
maybe like we could write them down
and everybody could see them in a list,

902
01:19:58.920 --> 01:20:02.079
and we'd like codify it, and
then everybody wouldn't would they see them?

903
01:20:02.079 --> 01:20:03.800
Though? What if they can?
I don't know, what if they're

904
01:20:03.840 --> 01:20:09.279
blindfolded or something. That's a good
point. Yeah, yeah, I just

905
01:20:09.399 --> 01:20:13.319
I feel like if we had a
set of neutral rules that everybody agreed to

906
01:20:13.359 --> 01:20:16.199
follow, and then if you broke
the neutral rules, then then you would

907
01:20:16.239 --> 01:20:19.520
get whatever the punishment would be it's
attached to that rule, and it wouldn't

908
01:20:19.600 --> 01:20:24.800
matter any of those things, like
your politics wouldn't matter, your race wouldn't

909
01:20:24.840 --> 01:20:27.119
matter, and gender like all of
that stuff. We would all just kind

910
01:20:27.119 --> 01:20:30.880
of be equal under these codes.
I think that would be a way to

911
01:20:30.159 --> 01:20:32.920
equity. Mean, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a great

912
01:20:32.920 --> 01:20:35.800
way to Yeah, if we frame
it as equity, maybe we get buy

913
01:20:35.880 --> 01:20:45.600
it. Oh wow, yeah yeah, I think yeah. Together and spend

914
01:20:45.680 --> 01:20:48.920
several months jotting this down. Yeah
yeah, it seems like, um,

915
01:20:48.960 --> 01:20:53.880
it seems like this could be like
civilizationally relevant. Like we I think we

916
01:20:53.920 --> 01:20:59.039
may have I think we may have
just solved like the world's problems with that

917
01:20:59.159 --> 01:21:01.039
if we all just have a set
of rules and we all follow the neutral

918
01:21:01.119 --> 01:21:05.119
rules, can in a couple hundred
years down the road, can we be

919
01:21:05.199 --> 01:21:11.960
demonized while largely ignored for accomplishing this
and then demonized for everything else having to

920
01:21:12.000 --> 01:21:15.800
do with society at large? Yeah? Yeah, that probably is our fate,

921
01:21:16.039 --> 01:21:21.159
no doubt. Good. Do you
ever have those weeks on radio Pete

922
01:21:21.159 --> 01:21:26.920
where you just like constantly You're like, am I awake? Is this going

923
01:21:27.000 --> 01:21:29.920
on? I mean, I've got
we've got headlines with everything, all the

924
01:21:30.279 --> 01:21:34.640
stories down in Texas right with Carlo. I'm calling him Carlos bigs beat because

925
01:21:34.640 --> 01:21:41.199
I don't like using dirtbags minds.
Thank you? Where you have this this

926
01:21:41.279 --> 01:21:45.439
guy with the freshest of fresh tattoos. Who's on this Russian thing? And

927
01:21:45.840 --> 01:21:53.039
don't worry. This media outlet,
which is basically a funnel for government stuff,

928
01:21:53.079 --> 01:21:58.119
including the CIA actions in the past, is pulling together all of this

929
01:21:58.239 --> 01:22:03.359
information to rate this picture of a
Hispanic whose parents don't even speak English,

930
01:22:03.720 --> 01:22:09.800
white supremacist who went and shot up
a place but didn't kill a single black

931
01:22:09.880 --> 01:22:14.920
or Jewish person, And like the
whole time, I'm just I have I

932
01:22:15.000 --> 01:22:18.560
have scars all over my skin from
pinching myself. What the hell is going

933
01:22:18.600 --> 01:22:25.359
on? Well, I think we
have identified the second I think this is

934
01:22:25.399 --> 01:22:30.880
the second white Hispanic. The second
white is the other one being George Zimmerman,

935
01:22:30.039 --> 01:22:32.479
remember from the ray Von Mark right, yes, yeah, yeah,

936
01:22:32.520 --> 01:22:36.920
so this may be the second white
Hispanic, which I mean the right,

937
01:22:38.000 --> 01:22:41.840
that would make sense. It is. It is kind of comical, and

938
01:22:41.880 --> 01:22:45.279
I do wonder at the same thought, like, okay, so the guy,

939
01:22:45.920 --> 01:22:47.840
the guy's name comes out and it's
and I don't say the names either,

940
01:22:48.960 --> 01:22:53.880
and he has a Hispanic sounding name. I'm sorry if that triggers some

941
01:22:53.960 --> 01:22:56.800
people, but it is a Hispanic
name, and I say, oh,

942
01:22:56.800 --> 01:22:59.880
okay, well this is interesting.
And of course everybody rushes to write there

943
01:23:00.079 --> 01:23:03.319
narrative in the immediate aftermath of these
tragedies, because you know, their narratives

944
01:23:03.720 --> 01:23:09.279
have to be the ones that take
hold and then harden and calcifying, become

945
01:23:09.439 --> 01:23:13.199
quote the truth, like hands up, don't shoot, and then everybody will

946
01:23:13.239 --> 01:23:15.359
just you know, sort of run
with that forever, even if it's a

947
01:23:15.640 --> 01:23:20.000
legend, right, you print the
legend, so the the initial aftermath you

948
01:23:20.039 --> 01:23:24.239
can see the narrative being crafted.
And then, like you said, like

949
01:23:24.279 --> 01:23:27.880
this, this social media stuff starts
coming out and it's like, okay,

950
01:23:27.920 --> 01:23:31.520
I've never heard of. This platform
in and of itself doesn't mean anything.

951
01:23:31.640 --> 01:23:34.640
There's lots of stuff I've never heard
of. But then I see it's dot

952
01:23:34.800 --> 01:23:40.239
RU and I'm like, really,
this is a Russian thing, and it's

953
01:23:40.239 --> 01:23:43.000
always the Russians, right, I'm
like, oh, man, I mean,

954
01:23:43.159 --> 01:23:45.680
which is kind of cool. Well, it's kind of cool because like

955
01:23:45.960 --> 01:23:47.920
remember when we were growing up,
the Russians are always the bad guys,

956
01:23:47.920 --> 01:23:50.720
the Soviets, right, they were
always the new guys. And then yeah,

957
01:23:50.760 --> 01:23:55.199
and then and then the wall comes
down and it's like okay, where

958
01:23:55.239 --> 01:23:57.800
some of you guys are okay and
all this and then we needed, you

959
01:23:57.800 --> 01:24:00.359
know, somebody else to be the
bad guys in all the movies and stuff,

960
01:24:00.680 --> 01:24:03.439
and we realize like, oh,
we can't make anybody else the bad

961
01:24:03.479 --> 01:24:09.880
guys biggause then we're accused of racism
or ethnicism or something, and so you

962
01:24:09.920 --> 01:24:12.439
can't do it, like you can't
make like, uh, you know,

963
01:24:12.560 --> 01:24:15.800
Muslim terrorists. But it was a
little while. I mean there was a

964
01:24:15.439 --> 01:24:19.960
moment, yeah, just a brief
moment, but then that gun right right,

965
01:24:20.239 --> 01:24:23.399
and then and then it was like, oh, backlash, We can't

966
01:24:23.399 --> 01:24:25.760
have these people being the bad guys
anymore. So it's like, oh,

967
01:24:25.800 --> 01:24:30.960
then it became the breakaway Soviet Republic, right then those became like so they're

968
01:24:30.039 --> 01:24:33.039
terrorists but they're still white, So
like that was okay. So now with

969
01:24:33.079 --> 01:24:38.000
the rise of the Russians again,
um, we can have bad guys in

970
01:24:38.119 --> 01:24:41.439
movies and not have to worry about
the race card being played again. So

971
01:24:41.479 --> 01:24:44.840
that's pretty neat. So I welcome
that aspect of it. But yes,

972
01:24:44.880 --> 01:24:49.399
I'm I'm I'm kind of perplexed at
this guy's use of that social media and

973
01:24:49.439 --> 01:24:55.560
the posting of this stuff and then
the fact that there was like zero engagement

974
01:24:55.720 --> 01:25:00.800
with any of his stuff, like
nobody, not alike, not a comment,

975
01:25:00.279 --> 01:25:04.000
nothing, It's just it's almost as
if he was screaming into the abyss

976
01:25:04.159 --> 01:25:08.920
or somebody constructed the profile. I'm
not saying that that's what happened. I'm

977
01:25:08.920 --> 01:25:13.960
just saying, well, TikTok post, I don't know if you know this.

978
01:25:16.000 --> 01:25:20.239
So, I mean, that's all
just one like by So the Jewish

979
01:25:20.279 --> 01:25:24.239
woman that runs the account is a
Nazi, I believe. I think that's

980
01:25:24.239 --> 01:25:29.479
how that works, yepp. And
then what was the uh he watched a

981
01:25:29.520 --> 01:25:32.720
Timpool video or something? Oh?
Man, that's too bad. I liked

982
01:25:32.760 --> 01:25:36.119
him Pool. So I guess he's
canceled. I guess we can everybody's canceled.

983
01:25:36.119 --> 01:25:40.640
Man, can you I can't watch
him? Can you imagine how?

984
01:25:40.920 --> 01:25:45.119
And then real quickly just I'm sorry, I gotta do one story that's not

985
01:25:45.720 --> 01:25:48.359
just the most depressing crap ever.
Man, Uh, well, not for

986
01:25:48.479 --> 01:25:51.680
us. Did you see Italy?
Did you see what they're melting out in

987
01:25:51.720 --> 01:25:59.039
Italy? And they have like their
their version of the FBI investigating no pasta

988
01:25:59.239 --> 01:26:01.880
shortage and the prices are up twenty
percent, but the price of flower isn't

989
01:26:01.960 --> 01:26:06.239
up, and so there's like a
big pasta conspiracy and people are hoarding pasta.

990
01:26:06.800 --> 01:26:13.279
It's the most Italian story ever.
Well, no, it would have

991
01:26:13.359 --> 01:26:16.199
to include something about like young men
living with their mothers well into like their

992
01:26:16.239 --> 01:26:19.319
forties. I think that's who do
you think it's hoarding the pasta? Why

993
01:26:19.359 --> 01:26:24.760
do you think MoMA have the pasta? Remember you saw the speaking of pasta.

994
01:26:24.880 --> 01:26:28.800
You saw that that there's the resolution
of the pasta dumper up in New

995
01:26:28.880 --> 01:26:30.479
Jersey, right, you saw what
happened. They figured I did not.

996
01:26:30.560 --> 01:26:36.279
I I I completely I've been I
completely ignored the pasta h story at a

997
01:26:36.359 --> 01:26:41.279
Jersey doing man, I'm sorry,
I was looking. I was I was

998
01:26:41.319 --> 01:26:45.359
getting ready for the big the marathon
down at the Texas border. I was

999
01:26:45.399 --> 01:26:48.840
waiting for the starter pistol to go
off, and we were doing all the

1000
01:26:48.840 --> 01:26:51.399
prep that went off. It went
off. I don't know if you've seen,

1001
01:26:53.239 --> 01:26:57.479
they're moving, Holy crap. Um
No, So the pasta dumper I

1002
01:26:57.520 --> 01:27:00.720
just got about a minute. The
pasta dumper turned out of a sun dude.

1003
01:27:00.800 --> 01:27:02.159
His mom died. He went into
her house and she had like five

1004
01:27:02.279 --> 01:27:06.159
hundred pounds of pasta. She was
ordin pasta, and so he just thought,

1005
01:27:06.279 --> 01:27:10.199
yeah, it's food. So he
dumped it out on the creekside and

1006
01:27:10.239 --> 01:27:13.399
then just the moisture around there and
it rained. That's what cooked did,

1007
01:27:13.439 --> 01:27:17.439
so to speak. But now this
poor dumb bastard was sitting on five hundred

1008
01:27:17.439 --> 01:27:21.079
pounds of pasta, and now over
in Italy there's a pasta shortage and they

1009
01:27:21.159 --> 01:27:27.039
got their version of the FBI investigating. What an opportunity lost for that guy

1010
01:27:27.079 --> 01:27:31.560
in Jersey. He could have sent
him that over black market pasta and he

1011
01:27:31.600 --> 01:27:35.960
could have made a killing. And
I'm telling you it's just one of those

1012
01:27:36.000 --> 01:27:40.640
things where he just got a just
a week What a difference. So it's

1013
01:27:40.640 --> 01:27:44.319
like that guy who bought pizza for
like one hundred bitcoins that one time.

1014
01:27:44.399 --> 01:27:45.680
So screwed. All right, Pete
calendar, we got a roll man.

1015
01:27:46.079 --> 01:27:48.520
Thank you very much. Having a
good weekend, sir. Okay, thank

1016
01:27:48.560 --> 01:27:51.479
you, Yeah you too, Casey. All right, we'll be right back

1017
01:27:53.239 --> 01:28:08.279
to live. I'm your day Smarter
and celebrating ten years of keeping you better

1018
01:28:08.279 --> 01:28:14.640
informed one oh six one FM Talk
and News Talk nine four five WPTI More

1019
01:28:14.960 --> 01:28:23.319
with Casey starts now. So I
thought we weren't supposed to culturally appropriate stuff.

1020
01:28:24.680 --> 01:28:30.239
I just try to go by the
rules or at the very least maliciously

1021
01:28:30.359 --> 01:28:35.640
comply. I only ask because there's
been a lot of discussion following the unveiling

1022
01:28:35.680 --> 01:28:50.840
of Netflix's new portrayal of Cleopatra and
among the most angry egypt So I guess

1023
01:28:51.000 --> 01:29:00.039
in that sense that would be their
culture, right, maybe possibly just a

1024
01:29:00.039 --> 01:29:12.520
little bit. Okay, Cleopatra,
who was um Macedonian Greek, mostly there's

1025
01:29:12.520 --> 01:29:16.239
a little bit of some other stuff
in there, obviously was not a dark

1026
01:29:16.319 --> 01:29:21.560
skinned woman. That's the reality of
it, based on her heritage. Okay,

1027
01:29:23.520 --> 01:29:29.000
However, Egypt is on the African
continent. This is the portrayal then

1028
01:29:29.079 --> 01:29:31.079
that they wanted to go through,
and they're already doing stuff where they're making

1029
01:29:31.520 --> 01:29:38.159
one of the other quin which queen
was it? Like they're they're they're recasting

1030
01:29:38.680 --> 01:29:45.920
racially, recasting members of the British
royal family. Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and

1031
01:29:45.960 --> 01:29:51.479
Antiquities released a statement condemning the Jada
Pinkett Smith produced docuseries, claiming it doesn't

1032
01:29:51.479 --> 01:30:00.399
reflect history, Cleopatra light skin and
Greek features. The origin statement says insisting

1033
01:30:00.439 --> 01:30:05.279
the project should be based on historically
and scientific facts. Historical and scientific facts

1034
01:30:05.279 --> 01:30:12.960
to ensure that history and civilizations are
not falsified. So as a result,

1035
01:30:13.359 --> 01:30:18.000
the state TV for Egypt is going
to do their own docuseries, except they're

1036
01:30:18.039 --> 01:30:24.520
going to change this so that it
meets the you know, the facts of

1037
01:30:25.039 --> 01:30:30.239
history there. And I'm just curious. This sounds like I can't think of

1038
01:30:30.279 --> 01:30:32.680
another scenario where you could just go
in and be like, nah, we're

1039
01:30:32.720 --> 01:30:35.520
just going to do this. I
don't care what your culture is. I

1040
01:30:35.560 --> 01:30:40.680
don't care what she says, I
don't care about the historical facts and go

1041
01:30:40.760 --> 01:30:45.560
in a different direction. Right,
And people have put those posters up on

1042
01:30:45.600 --> 01:30:47.560
Twitter. I've seen I know you've
seen some of the memes right where it's

1043
01:30:47.600 --> 01:30:54.079
like twelve Years of Slave starring Ryan
Gosling or roots and then you know it's

1044
01:30:54.399 --> 01:31:00.960
basically the brat pack in there.
But you know, when Egypt's telling you

1045
01:31:01.000 --> 01:31:04.279
it ain't right and you're going ahead
in your Netflix, I don't know.

1046
01:31:04.319 --> 01:31:08.800
I feel like this is cultural appropriation, but maybe I don't understand how it

1047
01:31:08.800 --> 01:31:12.840
works. Maybe I'm just a big
dummy. So those of you who hate

1048
01:31:12.840 --> 01:31:15.720
me who seem to listen on Fridays, I appreciate that. I don't know

1049
01:31:15.760 --> 01:31:16.840
what you guys are doing. The
rest of the week if you're hating on

1050
01:31:16.920 --> 01:31:21.399
somebody else. But I appreciate you
listening in on Fridays. Glad to have

1051
01:31:21.560 --> 01:31:29.439
you sending me you're angry angry,
I love it. And if you send

1052
01:31:29.479 --> 01:31:31.319
me something that's just actually sounds like
you're trying to have a discussion, I

1053
01:31:31.399 --> 01:31:36.359
might even answer it. I know, crazy, right, So check this

1054
01:31:36.439 --> 01:31:44.680
out, because of course you knew
this was happening. AI getting reagant up.

1055
01:31:45.560 --> 01:31:49.479
I don't think it's any big secret
that the current AI that is most

1056
01:31:49.640 --> 01:31:59.159
is most off quoted chat GPT is
clearly demonstrating a liberal bias. Kyle,

1057
01:31:59.199 --> 01:32:02.439
do you play on the AI at
all? You get on there and screw

1058
01:32:02.479 --> 01:32:05.399
around with some of the stuff,
doing searchers and whatnot all the time.

1059
01:32:05.760 --> 01:32:09.680
Okay, I thought so. I
thought Ross had mentioned that you're really into

1060
01:32:09.720 --> 01:32:14.640
it. Would you say that there
is a bias in your opinion with the

1061
01:32:14.800 --> 01:32:17.479
chat GPT or you just not really
delved into that side of it. I

1062
01:32:17.760 --> 01:32:23.159
don't know that I've played around too
much with that in terms of looking for

1063
01:32:23.199 --> 01:32:26.760
a bias. I've seen a lot
of the stuff on Twitter where folks have

1064
01:32:27.039 --> 01:32:29.319
asked it, you know, is
it okay to be white? Is it

1065
01:32:29.359 --> 01:32:31.239
okay to be black? And I'm
familiar with the answers they've gotten there.

1066
01:32:31.760 --> 01:32:36.319
There's just so much of how you
frame these questions and the prior prompts that

1067
01:32:36.439 --> 01:32:41.560
you give the tool. Sure,
I really haven't played around looking for a

1068
01:32:41.560 --> 01:32:44.239
bias. Well you're not using it
for like anime or something, aren't you?

1069
01:32:44.279 --> 01:32:47.960
No? Okay, good, So
creepy man, are you talking about

1070
01:32:48.000 --> 01:32:53.600
when they they make it work with
mid journey to generate the images. I'm

1071
01:32:53.640 --> 01:32:59.560
just saying yes, but people then
would and then you know what they were

1072
01:32:59.560 --> 01:33:01.159
immediately trying to do as they were
trying to do that and then make it

1073
01:33:01.239 --> 01:33:06.039
like anime porns. So oh yeah, dude, you gotta there's some Twitter

1074
01:33:06.119 --> 01:33:11.920
threads that I wish I would have
never seen. We'll just leave it right

1075
01:33:11.960 --> 01:33:16.359
there. So anyway, so you're
aware obviously of that perceived bias, asking

1076
01:33:16.439 --> 01:33:20.760
like, write me a poem admiring
Donald Trump, Write me a poem admiring

1077
01:33:20.880 --> 01:33:26.319
Joe Biden. One it will one, it won't. Tons and tons of

1078
01:33:27.640 --> 01:33:36.159
examples. Well, now they've unveiled
a new AI tool that's right created Tusk

1079
01:33:36.560 --> 01:33:43.279
browser. That's the browser tusk like
an elephant tusk, and it includes an

1080
01:33:43.279 --> 01:33:50.279
AI tool known as Gipper. The
tool nicknamed in honor of Ronald Reagan.

1081
01:33:51.800 --> 01:33:59.840
The bot uses chat GPT technology but
has been modified in programmed to act conservative.

1082
01:34:01.520 --> 01:34:08.399
The look at this rather than just
striving for something that is a perfection

1083
01:34:08.479 --> 01:34:12.760
of non bias, where it treats
everything it gets in in the same way

1084
01:34:12.760 --> 01:34:15.159
when it puts it out. Now, I understand you're talking about AI,

1085
01:34:15.279 --> 01:34:18.960
so you want it to evolve on
stuff. But I told you, if

1086
01:34:19.199 --> 01:34:24.560
if the one that gets adopted and
is utilized the most has that liberal bias,

1087
01:34:24.680 --> 01:34:30.520
then it just it's gets so much
harder to undo. But I don't

1088
01:34:30.560 --> 01:34:38.199
know if maybe you'll have more fun
with the Gipper answering questions for you.

1089
01:34:39.119 --> 01:34:41.920
I'll tell you what's gonna happen is
moonbats are gonna go in. They're gonna

1090
01:34:41.960 --> 01:34:45.159
ask it questions to try to try
to get it to say something that they

1091
01:34:45.199 --> 01:34:47.960
can claim as racist, Oh yeah, just wait for it, or or

1092
01:34:49.039 --> 01:34:54.359
transphobic. I think that's probably the
one they'll go, you know, because

1093
01:34:54.479 --> 01:34:58.000
lastly, Gipper, how many genders
are there? And as soon as it

1094
01:34:58.079 --> 01:35:00.239
spits two out, they'll lose They're
flipping minds, and then you'll see the

1095
01:35:00.279 --> 01:35:04.520
same stuff that you saw thrown on
Twitter, but kind of from the reverse.

1096
01:35:10.119 --> 01:35:15.000
Let's see here, AI designers created
Tusk. The AI tool attached to

1097
01:35:15.119 --> 01:35:20.119
Tusk, which is an Internet browser, is Gipper. We believe the conservatives

1098
01:35:20.119 --> 01:35:25.239
are subject to oppressive cancel culture that
now includes AI, and are expected to

1099
01:35:25.359 --> 01:35:29.960
exist in a society that tells them
what to think and act by the progressive

1100
01:35:30.079 --> 01:35:34.640
left, said Tusk founder and CEO
Jeff Bermant. It's time for a truthful

1101
01:35:34.680 --> 01:35:39.640
AI chatbot to take to the market
by store, take the market by storm,

1102
01:35:39.640 --> 01:35:43.880
and remove the barriers the radical left
to big tech have put in place.

1103
01:35:45.880 --> 01:35:48.880
So that's a thing that's an option. So a Gipper, by the

1104
01:35:48.880 --> 01:35:55.560
way, is kind of abbreviated,
and the spell is gippr. There's no

1105
01:35:55.720 --> 01:35:59.399
other vowel there, just gippr.
If you want to google that, and

1106
01:35:59.439 --> 01:36:01.800
I think you need the Tusk browser. I have not played with this thing,

1107
01:36:01.840 --> 01:36:05.439
but I did find it kind of
interesting because now all of a sudden

1108
01:36:05.479 --> 01:36:11.079
everyone's got their AI working. Isn't
that weird too? Like everyone's were,

1109
01:36:11.199 --> 01:36:14.560
well, we're working on AI for
years, and then like in like a

1110
01:36:14.560 --> 01:36:23.760
few months, everyone's got there's market
ready, totally alien technology anyway, eight

1111
01:36:23.840 --> 01:36:28.159
forty three Race Stagic from the Weather
Channel. He's here using alien technology,

1112
01:36:28.880 --> 01:36:34.800
pictures from space, uses pictures from
space. I enough pictures are a fair

1113
01:36:34.840 --> 01:36:40.000
word. Oh is he not there
yet? Roh row? I hit him

1114
01:36:40.000 --> 01:36:41.960
too. All right, Well,
we're gonna sit here and we're gonna wait

1115
01:36:42.000 --> 01:36:45.920
on him like you're waiting for your
you know, your kid's supposed to come

1116
01:36:45.960 --> 01:36:47.479
out because you're picking him up from
school. You're just sitting there waiting,

1117
01:36:48.560 --> 01:36:54.319
waiting, staring off into the abyss, waiting for Race Stagic. But I'm

1118
01:36:54.399 --> 01:36:57.319
here, Oh hey there, y'all. Yeah, Well, you know,

1119
01:36:57.439 --> 01:37:00.199
sometimes they getting hung up. I
do an old colleague of mine belie even

1120
01:37:00.239 --> 01:37:02.399
or not call me, and I
used to work with like twenty yeah,

1121
01:37:02.439 --> 01:37:04.680
about twenty years ago. So it's
like I gotta go. I gotta go.

1122
01:37:04.680 --> 01:37:09.039
But yet people that's hard to get
off the phone. So I'm sorry,

1123
01:37:09.199 --> 01:37:14.840
I mean, like ruin your rep
They saved? Did I fall for

1124
01:37:14.960 --> 01:37:16.960
hitting me on time today? So
did I? Did I mentione? You

1125
01:37:17.039 --> 01:37:21.800
saved me? Oh? Yes,
yes, you were all good man.

1126
01:37:21.960 --> 01:37:27.399
The weather is pretty good too,
as it's uh gonna stay dry for most

1127
01:37:27.439 --> 01:37:31.359
of us. M last couple of
days been mentioning west and probably from the

1128
01:37:31.479 --> 01:37:35.800
Tryad west into the mountains. Isolated
late day showers, thunder showers this afternoon

1129
01:37:35.840 --> 01:37:40.640
early tonight. That's probably going to
happen, but most of us probably don't

1130
01:37:40.640 --> 01:37:43.520
get much rain load. A mid
eighties even take us through the weekend,

1131
01:37:43.600 --> 01:37:46.119
little community around two. But I
think everybody is going to get a few

1132
01:37:46.119 --> 01:37:50.720
showers thunderstorms as we go through Saturday
and Sunday, with a better chance being

1133
01:37:50.760 --> 01:37:55.279
Saturday, which is good since its
Mother's Day, and then some dryer air

1134
01:37:55.359 --> 01:37:59.960
getting in here. Next week we
are heading into the Atlantic hurricanes. He's

1135
01:38:00.000 --> 01:38:02.479
and I can't believe it already.
And I don't know if you caught the

1136
01:38:02.520 --> 01:38:06.000
conundrum yesterday, Casey. I mean, I know you're always glued to the

1137
01:38:06.000 --> 01:38:10.239
weather channel, cable network, um
when you get off the air, But

1138
01:38:10.720 --> 01:38:17.319
did you I have yah to sit
at home with that apparatus attached to my

1139
01:38:17.399 --> 01:38:20.640
face with that weather channel. I
know that's exactly what you do. But

1140
01:38:21.279 --> 01:38:26.439
quickly, a couple of things.
The most strange thing, in my opinion,

1141
01:38:26.760 --> 01:38:30.760
that happened yesterday is that they went
back and analyzed the storm in January

1142
01:38:30.760 --> 01:38:33.520
that we were talking about, and
they actually slapped a label on it yesterday

1143
01:38:34.079 --> 01:38:39.600
of subtropical storm. They didn't give
it a name, which would be the

1144
01:38:39.680 --> 01:38:45.960
A Storm or lean um, but
it did get t TD status and it's

1145
01:38:46.000 --> 01:38:50.319
it's confusing. But the message that
I'm going to relay is that you may

1146
01:38:50.359 --> 01:38:54.680
see that we have had a subtropical
storm, and sometimes they give them names,

1147
01:38:54.680 --> 01:39:00.439
but they didn't for this one.
So long story st the nerdiest a

1148
01:39:00.520 --> 01:39:06.199
controversy exactly heard exactly there's about it. Then there's not a single person that's

1149
01:39:06.199 --> 01:39:13.279
ever talked to a woman involved in
this discussion, is there No? I

1150
01:39:13.319 --> 01:39:15.880
mean, you're relaying information, you're
not at the meat of this. But

1151
01:39:15.000 --> 01:39:20.680
whoever's debating ad back in the back
rooms. Right. So here's what happens

1152
01:39:20.720 --> 01:39:25.199
when we get the next disturbance,
at least the way I understand it,

1153
01:39:25.199 --> 01:39:28.760
and I could be wrong. So
let's say we get a tropical depression,

1154
01:39:29.239 --> 01:39:33.880
right, it would be t D
two, but if it does get a

1155
01:39:33.960 --> 01:39:38.680
name, it would be the A
Storm. So that's kind of the whole

1156
01:39:38.680 --> 01:39:43.680
systems. Throw it away. We're
done, and they're gonna start issuing tropical

1157
01:39:43.680 --> 01:39:46.840
outlooks here in a couple of days
May fifteenth, that's earlier than they have

1158
01:39:46.960 --> 01:39:50.520
in the past. Usually they start
them with the beginning of the hurricane season

1159
01:39:50.560 --> 01:39:56.960
the Atlantic, So visionist history on
y tropical storm. This is where we

1160
01:39:56.960 --> 01:40:00.279
are. So now, if you're
not confused up, we'll be sure to

1161
01:40:00.319 --> 01:40:05.000
confuse you even more as we get
into great perfect can't. You're welcome bring

1162
01:40:05.000 --> 01:40:08.800
out a good week right now,
we meet that, all right, Thank

1163
01:40:08.800 --> 01:40:11.439
you for having a good weekend,
and we'll come back chat with Jeff Belinger

1164
01:40:11.520 --> 01:40:25.199
next, a new decade on the
calendar and celebrating ten years on the air.

1165
01:40:25.479 --> 01:40:29.159
This is one oh six one FM
Talk in the Triangle and near's talk

1166
01:40:29.279 --> 01:40:33.199
nine four five WPTI in the Triad. All right, eight fifty two Bloomberg

1167
01:40:33.239 --> 01:40:38.359
Update, now, Jeff Belinger,
what's happened well the morning case The stocks

1168
01:40:38.359 --> 01:40:42.880
were mixed yesterday. Futures are pointing
higher this morning. The Dow futures are

1169
01:40:42.920 --> 01:40:47.039
up one hundred eleven points. Optimists
in Washington say the postponement of a high

1170
01:40:47.119 --> 01:40:53.039
level meeting on the debt ceiling maybe
a positive development. At President Biden and

1171
01:40:53.079 --> 01:40:57.800
how Speaker Kevin McCarthy were scheduled to
meet again today. That's been put off

1172
01:40:57.880 --> 01:41:01.399
until sometime next week. The whole
is that this is an indication staff level

1173
01:41:01.439 --> 01:41:05.920
talks in making headway and aids to
the two leaders will continue their discussions.

1174
01:41:06.239 --> 01:41:13.279
Southwest Airlines pilots authorized to strike.
There's frustration over the pace of contract negotiations,

1175
01:41:13.520 --> 01:41:17.439
and pilots were virtually unanimous in giving
their union leaders their backing should they

1176
01:41:17.479 --> 01:41:20.600
decide to call for a walk out. The vote does not mean a strike

1177
01:41:20.640 --> 01:41:26.279
will begin soon. Airline labor negotiations
or subject to the Railway Labor Act,

1178
01:41:26.520 --> 01:41:30.560
and a strike would not be legal
until several conditions are met. A Twitter

1179
01:41:30.640 --> 01:41:34.520
posting by Elon Musk said he's chosen
a CEO to run the short messaging service

1180
01:41:34.760 --> 01:41:40.399
and that she will start in about
six weeks. Musk did not identify his

1181
01:41:40.560 --> 01:41:45.279
choice, but The Wall Street Journal
has reported that Linda Jakarino, currently an

1182
01:41:45.279 --> 01:41:49.840
executive at NBCUniversal, has been in
talks to become the Twitter boss. Tesla's

1183
01:41:49.880 --> 01:41:55.720
tweaked the US prices of its electric
vehicles again, this time making them more

1184
01:41:55.760 --> 01:41:59.640
expensive. In the third change in
less than a month, Tesla raised the

1185
01:41:59.680 --> 01:42:03.960
price of its Model X modelsque Base
and Plaid evs by one thousand dollars.

1186
01:42:04.159 --> 01:42:09.119
It added two hundred fifty dollars to
the price of the model. Y Lift

1187
01:42:09.199 --> 01:42:13.119
is still making tweaks to its business
model, looking to be more competitive with

1188
01:42:13.239 --> 01:42:17.760
Uber. The latest change is to
discontinued share rides. A Lift CEO David

1189
01:42:17.880 --> 01:42:21.600
Risher says, the problem with shared
trips is that they take people out of

1190
01:42:21.640 --> 01:42:26.359
their way, and a Casey,
it's good to fly first class if you

1191
01:42:26.399 --> 01:42:30.239
can afford it, and the airlines
are making it even better. Some carriers

1192
01:42:30.279 --> 01:42:34.520
first class cabins resemble many hotel rooms
now. They have sofas, double beds,

1193
01:42:34.600 --> 01:42:39.880
televisions, desks, wardrobes, and
mini bars. Some even have showers.

1194
01:42:39.920 --> 01:42:44.359
The airlines just betting Casey that more
well to do customers will be willing

1195
01:42:44.359 --> 01:42:47.800
to splurge on travel after being grounded
so long during the pandemic. Casey,

1196
01:42:48.359 --> 01:42:54.079
Okay, well, they've definitely got
the prices to match the words splurge,

1197
01:42:54.119 --> 01:42:56.840
because yes, they do nuts right
now. So all right, thank you

1198
01:42:56.920 --> 01:42:59.079
much, appreciate it. Having good
weekend, sir, You do the same.

1199
01:42:59.119 --> 01:43:00.479
Talk to you Monday. All right, there you go, Jeff Bellinger,

1200
01:43:00.880 --> 01:43:09.119
Bloomberg News joining us. I'm not
sure how you think this is gonna

1201
01:43:09.159 --> 01:43:15.680
go, sir, but that's okay. Police say a man held two women

1202
01:43:15.840 --> 01:43:21.079
hostage? And where's this? Lincoln, Nebraska? A man held two women

1203
01:43:21.199 --> 01:43:27.880
hostage Thursday? During an armed standoff? What's he armed? With a stick

1204
01:43:27.880 --> 01:43:36.159
of dynamite? Dispatchers were notified by
passers by that a man was holding two

1205
01:43:36.159 --> 01:43:42.439
women hostage in a car. The
caller told authorities the man was threatening to

1206
01:43:42.520 --> 01:43:49.479
detonate a stick of dynamite if anyone
got too close. Then the vehicle started

1207
01:43:49.560 --> 01:43:51.840
driving around. I don't know if
he's driving or the one of the woman's

1208
01:43:51.920 --> 01:43:58.079
driving, but whatever. The eventually
deputy stopped the vehicle and they were able

1209
01:43:58.119 --> 01:44:00.760
to talk the dude down from it. How do you think that's gonna go?

1210
01:44:04.319 --> 01:44:11.680
I mean, they're probably not gonna
shoot at you. So there's that.

1211
01:44:14.199 --> 01:44:21.000
What was the they portrayed it in
a movie or there was a story.

1212
01:44:21.079 --> 01:44:25.319
I remember reading a story about somebody
who shot a guy who was wearing

1213
01:44:25.319 --> 01:44:31.439
a suicide vest over in a rack
Afghanistan. He was Afghanistan and you ended

1214
01:44:31.520 --> 01:44:36.520
up detonating something on there. Try
and remember where I read that. There

1215
01:44:36.600 --> 01:44:41.479
was video, That's why people were
all freaked out. But yeah, so

1216
01:44:41.880 --> 01:44:45.359
stick of dynamite. I'm glad it
came to a fine conclusion. But I

1217
01:44:45.399 --> 01:44:49.760
mean, what is he like if
if you're gonna then use it, Let's

1218
01:44:49.760 --> 01:44:53.560
say that you're gonna use it on
the officer. I'm not encouraging you to

1219
01:44:53.600 --> 01:44:56.279
do that. You gotta get the
lighter out of your pocket, you gotta

1220
01:44:56.319 --> 01:45:00.079
light the thing, you gotta throw
the thing. I'm huming that that was

1221
01:45:00.119 --> 01:45:05.840
the detonation, uh methodology being a
standard stick of dynamite. So I don't

1222
01:45:05.840 --> 01:45:11.359
know, or do you get one
of those long fuses right and it's burning,

1223
01:45:11.439 --> 01:45:14.039
burning, burning, but you got
your fingers wet and you're just kind

1224
01:45:14.039 --> 01:45:17.239
of waiting. I don't know how
to properly do that. But however he

1225
01:45:17.279 --> 01:45:23.479
did it, he ended up getting
taken into custody. So there's there's that

1226
01:45:25.000 --> 01:45:30.920
also apparently. Uh oh geez,
yeah, I'm not gonna be able to

1227
01:45:30.960 --> 01:45:32.359
fit that in. I was gonna
try to jam this one other story in

1228
01:45:32.439 --> 01:45:36.119
here. We'll save that for Monday. You know the Jeremy's chocolates. Do

1229
01:45:36.159 --> 01:45:41.279
you know what those are? So
that's Jeremy uh what's his name? Boring

1230
01:45:41.399 --> 01:45:46.119
or whatever? From Daily Wire.
When Hershey's was doing all their shenanigans,

1231
01:45:46.119 --> 01:45:51.800
they put out some chocolate bars and
they had he hymns and she hers and

1232
01:45:53.439 --> 01:45:57.760
ones had nuts and ones didn't.
I remember that, all right, So

1233
01:45:57.840 --> 01:46:00.359
some college professor, well I'll just
real quick, I'll do this. I'm

1234
01:46:00.359 --> 01:46:04.920
already into it. A college professor
at a community college in California and Fresno

1235
01:46:06.159 --> 01:46:12.720
has been put on leave and is
under investigation because done did it done?

1236
01:46:13.119 --> 01:46:16.760
Among an offering of candy that he
had in his classroom, he had some

1237
01:46:16.800 --> 01:46:23.239
of these little chocolate bars, which
apparently were very popular. However, one

1238
01:46:23.279 --> 01:46:27.560
of the students noticed on the chocolate
bar that they were described as a he

1239
01:46:27.880 --> 01:46:33.359
hymn bar which had nuts and she
hers that didn't, and conniption fit ensued,

1240
01:46:33.680 --> 01:46:39.840
reported and now they're investigating. So
ironically, everyone kind of seemed to

1241
01:46:39.840 --> 01:46:44.399
like the chocolate. So there's that, all right, Have a good weekend,

1242
01:46:44.439 --> 01:46:45.680
everybody, see you back here bright
and early Monday.
