1
00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:47.359
Remember all right, good morning everybody. It is six or seven here on

2
00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:54.240
the case of your game radio program. Glad to have you along. Oh

3
00:00:56.600 --> 00:01:02.159
is it Friday? Must be Friday. Oh no, it's Wednesday. All

4
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:04.480
right, just check the calendar,
so suck it up. Three more days

5
00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:12.959
here we go. We have like
a really interesting variety, and I know

6
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:19.599
that we strive for variety here on
the show. But and I'm a little

7
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:29.760
I'm a little salty because I don't
want to overshare. But like, do

8
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:32.280
you ever eat something? I mean, you're just like, and uh,

9
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:38.959
I guess I'm gonna be up forever, which unfortunately gives you a lot of

10
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:46.319
time to like doom stroll a doomscroll
emails and social media and all the rest.

11
00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:56.680
And I'm like, all right,
get up, go take something,

12
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.120
you know, like peptobismal kind of
thing, and hopefully you can get a

13
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:06.400
few more hours sleep. That didn't
happen, that was just done. So

14
00:02:06.439 --> 00:02:09.360
I'm like sending emails to Ross in
the middle of the night. I'm glad

15
00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:13.879
you were up because I didn't.
Then I didn't look like a psychopath because

16
00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:15.199
you did the you did the morning
gym thing, right, Yeah, I

17
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:17.439
was at the gym in like two
thirty eight, So your email came in.

18
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:21.000
I was like, what is he
doing up? I mean, maybe

19
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:30.120
he's at the gym two I had
uh a uh ACP, and I'm pretty

20
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:31.960
sure that's what it was. Yes, Jay, do you like acp?

21
00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:38.560
Uh arrows come pooh? That was
I thought it was like opp no,

22
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:39.719
no, no, if you go
like a Mexican restaurant, no, yeah,

23
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:45.520
you know me, I know I'm
down with opeople So um no,

24
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:49.919
I don't, dude, I ate
something. I got up. My body's

25
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:52.960
like, yeah, you need to
get up and um and then I'm just

26
00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:59.639
like doom scrolling stuff. And unfortunately
I'm sitting there and I'm watching video of

27
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:07.479
it. We'll get into it.
I'll play the audio of report and this

28
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:14.520
is this is not new. It's
actually it was down in Charlotte and it

29
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:20.120
happened at the end of last month, but I hadn't seen it at a

30
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:28.439
time in North Carolina when there is
a very big, real conversation going on,

31
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:39.919
complete with legislation and everything else,
about how we how we educate kids?

32
00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:46.000
Right, do we do it and
all of the resources are directed at

33
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:55.000
public schools, or do we take
a more competitive approach by attaching the dollars

34
00:03:55.039 --> 00:04:03.400
to the kids and letting parents be
the arbiter of what is best for their

35
00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:15.560
kid, and creating competition through vouchers
for private schools, a larger selection of

36
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:20.319
charter schools, and of course public
education. And I happen I happen to

37
00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:26.879
be in the camp for the second
one for a wide variety of reasons,

38
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:33.120
but nothing. There's very few things
that make me sure of my position.

39
00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:46.680
Then watching those who are in the
seats of power of public education, in

40
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:54.000
this case, the second largest school
district in North Carolina. A lot of

41
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:58.199
people think Charlotte's the biggest, but
it's actually technically the second, and Wake

42
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:09.639
County's the biggest. But I digress. Apparently not learn anything from what we

43
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:16.920
saw up in Virginia and Loudon County. It's brutal. So there is a

44
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:26.360
very real issue in Charlotte schools with
sexual assault. There have been several instances,

45
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.519
and one of the reporters there is
trying to get anybody on the school

46
00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:36.120
board to talk about it. And
yes, I understand that when it comes

47
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:44.439
to individualized cases, there are certain
restrictions where schools are not allowed to get

48
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:49.279
into those individual cases or board members
for that matter, one hundred percent agree.

49
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:55.399
However, when you want to talk
about the larger issue, like do

50
00:05:55.480 --> 00:06:00.839
you think school districts are doing enough
to address what is an issue that parents

51
00:06:00.839 --> 00:06:03.720
are concerned about? Ie parents being
the voters, and of course the funding

52
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:13.040
being taxpayer funding. That video made
me so angry to the point where I'm

53
00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:17.160
like, I took some peptobismo.
I looked over at the clock. I'm

54
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:19.759
like, you know, maybe I
could go back to sleep for an hour

55
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:26.920
or something, and it just wasn't
happening at that point. So I see

56
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:31.519
that, and then I see this
story this morning, and actually Ross and

57
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:46.839
I talked about this last night.
This this family in Clayton, this mom

58
00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:54.600
named Nancy Norris, whose daughter is
Abbey, who goes to Clayton High School.

59
00:06:56.199 --> 00:07:04.399
And so now I'm already really bothered
by this video from Charlotte where the

60
00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:09.240
board members don't seem to give a
crap. And frankly, Ross, when

61
00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:13.480
you watched that video this morning,
did it remind you of anything the board

62
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:16.720
members the way that they came across
in that video. Did it remind you

63
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:25.959
of another video that caused a huge
stir which actually people were misinterpreting off the

64
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:30.480
bat and then we found out more. But did it remind you of another

65
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:34.360
viral video from I don't know a
couple of years ago based out of DC.

66
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:43.160
Frankly somebody who was high school age
at the time. I mean it

67
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:45.759
angered an upset me. But no, which one are you thinking of?

68
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:55.040
Do you remember the original narrative off
of these students in DC where one of

69
00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:59.279
them was sitting there and he quote
unquote had a smug look on his face

70
00:07:59.399 --> 00:08:05.040
and obviously was being very insulting to
I don't know native American elder, right,

71
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:07.639
So Nicholas Sandman, Yeah, no, I couldn't see the comparison there,

72
00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:16.240
But it was the reaction on that
video that really launched it forward.

73
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:20.079
And initially when I watched the Saldman
video, it made me angry, right

74
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:22.120
because because it was all out of
context, you knew it was out of

75
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:26.240
context. But when he processed it
the way that it was being sold,

76
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:30.240
You're like, what a smug piece
of right, And in retrospect he realized

77
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:33.600
he was. He had an incredible
amount of self control there, Yeah,

78
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:39.759
well, and a self control,
but also he was probably mentally terrified by

79
00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:43.840
this terrified it's the wrong word.
He was remarkably uncomfortable. He didn't know

80
00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:46.440
how to act, and that's how
he chose to act. And I don't

81
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:52.360
blame him for it, But those
school board members are adults, Man,

82
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:58.440
and the very same narrative that was
created around Salman in that video looks it

83
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:05.200
is those visceral reactions that you get
when you watch the Charlotte school board members,

84
00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:09.159
who if one of them had just
said, look, I'm very concerned

85
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:16.039
about anything having to do with sexual
assault within the schools, and we are.

86
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:18.399
You know, we're investigating. We'll
get to the bottom of it.

87
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:22.240
But just know that I take this
very seriously. There would be no viral

88
00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:24.240
video. But instead what you had
is you had a bunch of board members

89
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:31.320
like pretending to be on their phones, the one lady smirking, it's just

90
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:37.440
so bad. And then I couple
it with this Johnston County school under fire.

91
00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:46.879
After this mom and I'll explain why
she's upset. Is is is just

92
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:58.120
trying to deal with one of the
many, many, many challenges that she

93
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:09.159
no doubt faces every every day with
the situation that her daughter's in the situation

94
00:10:09.240 --> 00:10:16.000
being the daughter deals with brittle bone
disease. She has a lot of challenges

95
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:28.840
and the the way that it comes
across, and I'll let you be the

96
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:37.679
judge of whether things were intentional things
weren't. The fact remains that it was

97
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:45.759
such an easy thing not to not
to end up a news story, and

98
00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:48.879
yet it did. And like I
said, I'm gonna give you the details

99
00:10:48.519 --> 00:10:54.039
here in just a moment. There
is a statement from the school. But

100
00:10:54.080 --> 00:11:01.000
what a time to have these stories
in the mix at the very same time

101
00:11:01.799 --> 00:11:11.879
that public school advocates are screaming bloody
murder over parents wanting more choice. It's

102
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:18.039
a really bad look. So we'll
dive into the details of both of those.

103
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:20.279
We got lots to get to,
but right now it's six or eighteen.

104
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:31.600
We'll take a break, be right
back, hang on, thank you.

105
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:37.519
Casey is on w PTI in the
Triad and one six one FM Talk

106
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:46.759
in the Triangle. All right,
good morning, it is six twenty three

107
00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:54.080
here on the case O Day Radio
program. I'm not gonna be able to

108
00:11:54.120 --> 00:12:01.279
get book excuse me, both these
stories in right away, but we'll start

109
00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:05.960
down that road. Wait, hold
on, is somebody mad at me over

110
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:13.320
something? I haven't even started saying
stuff? So savior hate people. Don't

111
00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:20.840
worry. Okay, all right,
we'll get to that here momentarily. Chill

112
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:28.759
out. Ah, it's only Wednesday. How's that smoke going? By the

113
00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:33.679
way, you realize that, like
there's a warning and you're not supposed to

114
00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:37.759
go outside today, So just f
y, I er all right, let

115
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:45.840
me start in, um, let
me start in Clayton. So, um,

116
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:50.639
here's here's the gist of the story. You have this, You have

117
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:56.000
this girl. Her mom's speaking out. Mom's name is Nancy, daughter's name

118
00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:05.159
is Abby. Abbey is dealing with
health issues, and specifically brittle bone disease,

119
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:13.879
which is a genetic disorder in which
bones fracture break easily. You know,

120
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:18.080
there's there's a lot going on there, and obviously and her daughter's in

121
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:26.679
a wheelchair as a result. But
um, the daughter also is a cheerleader

122
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:33.480
at Clayton High School. This is
the part that baffles me. However,

123
00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:43.120
when it came came time for the
yearbook to come out, mom, by,

124
00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:46.200
I'm assuming, buys the yearbook.
I don't know if they still force

125
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:52.679
you to pay for him, but
whatever, and opens the yearbook expecting to

126
00:13:52.679 --> 00:13:54.840
see pictures of her daughter, which, by the way, there's lots of

127
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:58.720
pictures that mom posted on social media. Girls in the uniforms, she's got

128
00:13:58.720 --> 00:14:03.279
the poms. Yes she's in her
wheelchair, and but she's part you know,

129
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:09.000
she's on the cheerleading team. Starts
combing through there and guess what,

130
00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:18.840
no pictures of the daughter every other
cheerleader boom in the in the yearbook and

131
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:24.960
asked, what I think is a
very fair question, how the hell did

132
00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:33.840
that happen? Which I'm of the
same light. I don't understand that because

133
00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:35.320
back in the day, when I
was in school, when it came to

134
00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:43.399
clubs or athletics, you know,
football, cheerleading, the forensics club,

135
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:50.200
whatever it was, there was always
a group photo. So because I did

136
00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:56.000
football, I did wrestling one year, but I did football, and there

137
00:14:56.000 --> 00:15:00.000
it was. I also did fa
and every year that I did those things,

138
00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:03.879
group photo in there. So I
don't even understand how you have a

139
00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:09.840
photo of all the cheerleaders and yet
you leave out the one special needs student.

140
00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:15.039
And I think that's really what hooked
people's interest here. I sent this

141
00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:18.279
story to you last night at like
yeah, yeah, yeah, forty five.

142
00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:20.360
And if I'm sending you a story
forty five, you know that I'm

143
00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:22.279
really pissed off about something, right, Oh yeah, I can really relate

144
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:26.679
to this story. You know,
the issue that happened with Lincoln in his

145
00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:28.840
yearbook. Just a few weeks ago. I had posted about it on social

146
00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:31.320
media. I took it down because
it started getting attention, and Mark he

147
00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:35.039
was like, I don't want to
just school, which is why I didn't

148
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:35.600
bring it up. By the way, yeah, I am complete, So

149
00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:41.600
listen. We had a similar instance
with Lincoln. His yearbook came out in

150
00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:46.120
the back of the yearbook and the
theme of the yearbook was spreading kindness around,

151
00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:48.279
like confetti or something like that.
Yeah, And then on the cover

152
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:52.679
of the yearbook was very diverse and
YadA YadA, And in the back of

153
00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:56.039
it was a tribute to the ongoing
fifth graders going to middle school, and

154
00:15:56.360 --> 00:16:00.639
every single fifth grader at this school
was there above their head there was a

155
00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:03.159
bubble that said what they wanted to
be when they grew up. So it'd

156
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:07.519
be like, you know, little
Timmy, I want to be a twitch

157
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:08.399
star, whatever the hell it would
be, right, yeah, yeah,

158
00:16:08.600 --> 00:16:12.200
there was one child missing in the
entire section of the yearbook. One fifth

159
00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:15.600
grader. You want to guess who
it was. I mean it was our

160
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:19.759
child was Lincoln, who was in
the special needs class due to autism,

161
00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:25.279
and we were absolutely heartbroken. So
I understand. I saw this story yesterday,

162
00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:27.879
send it to you. It is
so frustrating that they're constantly going on

163
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:32.519
about diversity and inclusion and then when
it really comes down to it, these

164
00:16:32.559 --> 00:16:36.159
school board they just they're dropping the
ball these school districts. It makes no

165
00:16:36.200 --> 00:16:40.240
sense. It is so frustrating.
It's like they don't count, as though

166
00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:42.879
Lincoln doesn't have right aspirations. All
right, we're gonna get into more of

167
00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:51.279
this coming up, Hang up,
keeping you connected. This is ninety four

168
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:56.960
Clive WPTI in the Triad at one
six one FM Talk in the Triangle.

169
00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:04.759
All right, here we go,
six thirty five. So let me get

170
00:17:04.759 --> 00:17:11.559
back to these storeys. And it
looks I think they're really important, especially

171
00:17:12.319 --> 00:17:18.680
arguably even more important when it comes
to the bigger debate at a time when

172
00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:27.720
North Carolina is looking to expand choice
for parents in how they educate their kids

173
00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:33.680
to make it more accessible for most
people, not just you know, really

174
00:17:33.799 --> 00:17:38.400
rich people like I don't know,
Roy Cooper, our governor who chose to

175
00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:47.960
avail himself of private schooling for his
daughter, which you know, cool,

176
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:51.680
go ahead and do that. The
reality is that doesn't work for most families.

177
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:59.799
Doesn't work. However, if you're
able to utilize the literally the dollar

178
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:04.920
that are set aside for your kid
and you get more choice out of it,

179
00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:11.319
I think that's a benefit. And
I see one of the big pushbacks

180
00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:17.599
is, well, you know private
schools are not accountable. Do you feel

181
00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:22.240
the public schools are accountable right now? So when you have stories that made

182
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.759
people question that, it's just a
really bad time for that considering the larger

183
00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:34.599
debate. So for this young lady
who Abbey Norris, this student at Clayton

184
00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:40.759
High School, who's on the cheerleading
team but also is dealing with significant challenges

185
00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:45.960
which have caused her to be bullied
significantly because you know, kids are horrible

186
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:56.400
sometimes for her to still put herself
out there by joining the cheerleading team and

187
00:18:56.440 --> 00:19:00.000
then to not appear in her own
yearbook. By the way, somebody just

188
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:03.119
sent me an email and said that
yearbooks are eighty five dollars. Is that

189
00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:07.119
true? I think it was the
same guy that was on hold and he

190
00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:14.119
had a drop. Yeah, yeah, eighty five bucks. That blows my

191
00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:18.480
mind. Man. Uh sorry,
he's got a little sidetracked with it.

192
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:22.440
I don't remember what my yearbook was, but I'm damn sure it wasn't eighty

193
00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:25.720
five dollars because I wouldn't have had
one. There's the same, yeah,

194
00:19:25.799 --> 00:19:27.920
same. My mom would have been
like, yeah, go look at the

195
00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:33.480
mirror, right, you know.
But anyway, but for her to get

196
00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:36.839
out there, and even in the
face of all of the challenges with her

197
00:19:36.880 --> 00:19:41.039
medical issues she's dealing with with you
know, being being a student who's in

198
00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:48.720
a wheelchair, and you know,
the inevitable comments, even even if they're

199
00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:57.000
just misunderstandings right where kids have questions, it's still for her to not appear

200
00:19:57.799 --> 00:20:07.519
in the yearbook is insane to me. And it's especially insane because she's on

201
00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:11.240
she's in a team. She's on
a team. She's on the cheerleading squad.

202
00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:18.559
I don't know how that works.
The issue you dealt with Lincoln was

203
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:21.880
they were cobbling all the fifth graders
together. Is he the only fifth grader

204
00:20:21.920 --> 00:20:25.359
in the special needs class? He
is? Yeah, And okay, listen,

205
00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:27.279
Lincoln's principle is amazing that the team
there is great. We do love

206
00:20:27.319 --> 00:20:30.680
his school. But it was heartbreaking
and the like to turn on that page

207
00:20:30.680 --> 00:20:33.200
and there's all the fifth graders with
the bubbles over there heads saying, you

208
00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:34.400
know what we want to be when
we grow up or move on, and

209
00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:37.359
Lincoln wasn't there. And I hate
to break it to he has dreams and

210
00:20:37.400 --> 00:20:41.240
aspirations too, And I had posted
something in social media took it down because

211
00:20:41.240 --> 00:20:45.480
it started getting a really good response
and Marky was like, you're gonna make

212
00:20:45.480 --> 00:20:48.440
our life at school hell. And
it's a good point because listen, having

213
00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:51.519
this job, it makes things weird
enough as it is, right, because

214
00:20:51.519 --> 00:20:53.920
things can get super political and I
try to be quiet, but it's out

215
00:20:53.960 --> 00:20:56.880
there, like it's a thing,
right, like like you know, he's

216
00:20:56.880 --> 00:21:00.359
a guy from the radio show and
it's a political d a show and it

217
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:02.720
could be weird, and we don't
want to make it complicated for Lincoln,

218
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:04.000
like it's a thing that it's a
thing that happens. It's the reality of

219
00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:08.240
the situation. So it's yeah,
no, So she contacts the pay for

220
00:21:08.279 --> 00:21:11.720
you to feast upon them if you
want to, and you don't. And

221
00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:14.279
I don't want it though, Like
there's there's no part of me that wants

222
00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:15.119
to do that. I don't.
I want to be drama free. I

223
00:21:15.119 --> 00:21:18.839
don't. I'm not a fan of
drama right at all, especially when it

224
00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:21.240
comes to my kid. I don't
want to make it more complicated for him

225
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:23.359
or to have somebody be pissed off
or take it out on him because the

226
00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:26.440
politics. It's stupid, right,
So I took down that post. I

227
00:21:26.519 --> 00:21:30.359
was like, I'm not I'm gonna
avoid it. The principle did eventually get

228
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:33.559
back, and it's listen, it's
simply an issue of being you know,

229
00:21:33.839 --> 00:21:37.200
it's not intentional there, it's no
way, there's no you know, there's

230
00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:41.319
no they're not doing it to be
mean, it's not into They just forgot.

231
00:21:41.359 --> 00:21:45.559
The person in charge of the fifth
grade class taking the picture forgot that

232
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:47.839
there might be a fifth grader in
the special needs class, you know,

233
00:21:47.880 --> 00:21:52.960
for autism, just completely overlooked it. And that's sad, right like,

234
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:56.519
And listen, I hopefully this happened
to us this year so it won't happen

235
00:21:56.599 --> 00:22:00.960
to another family in the future.
That's the way we're looking at it now,

236
00:22:02.440 --> 00:22:06.359
right, And there is one unique
circumstance. So the in this case,

237
00:22:06.440 --> 00:22:11.240
this Abbey Girl, she attends via
the virtual academy. However, she

238
00:22:11.400 --> 00:22:18.519
does participate in person in the activities, including cheerleading, which is not unusual.

239
00:22:18.720 --> 00:22:22.200
Um, you know, there's there's
lots of situations where kids are either

240
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:26.960
homeschooled or virtual academy. However,
when it comes to sports, they are

241
00:22:26.039 --> 00:22:30.400
able to participate based on their residency. That being said, it is the

242
00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:36.119
part where she's on a team,
which I don't under like, I don't

243
00:22:36.200 --> 00:22:41.680
understand how it happens. However,
the impact of it, you would agree,

244
00:22:41.960 --> 00:22:48.880
is more significant, right because you
are already a student who is non

245
00:22:48.000 --> 00:22:53.920
traditional? Would that would that be
a fair like? His kids are aware

246
00:22:53.960 --> 00:23:00.599
of that. So especially these circumstances
not treated as their peers are. It's

247
00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:03.720
got to cut deeper, man,
it does. Especially listen, especially with

248
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:11.000
the focus now in schools about diversity
inclusion. How you know, everybody's we're

249
00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:15.240
going to treat everybody equity, right, And it's like, okay, well,

250
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:18.119
when we're talking about the smallest minority
in a school, that would be

251
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:23.759
the special needs students, right,
So what are we doing here? So

252
00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:29.440
I sit there and I see this
story and then I see this video from

253
00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:34.880
where down in Charlotte they're dealing with
some parents who are very concerned about alleged

254
00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:42.920
sexual assaults at the schools now is
that the school's fault. Not necessarily right.

255
00:23:44.039 --> 00:23:48.440
You can't always control what the kids
do, but you need to deal

256
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:52.599
with it, and you need to
not try to cover it up as you

257
00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:57.079
saw up in Virginia, which caused
all of that ruckus because the superintendent's like,

258
00:23:57.200 --> 00:24:03.599
nah, nothing's happened, even though
they this girl had been sexually assaulted

259
00:24:03.680 --> 00:24:08.599
in the bathroom. In this case
it was by a trans student. But

260
00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:12.960
it doesn't even matter that it was
a trans student, just the fact that

261
00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:18.480
somebody was sexually assaulted at school and
you didn't do any of the things you're

262
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:22.079
required to do. People people obviously
have a problem with that, right,

263
00:24:22.359 --> 00:24:26.920
parents have an issue with that.
And when you have more than one instance

264
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:33.079
that is being alleged, as they
do down in Charlotte, and people don't

265
00:24:33.119 --> 00:24:37.799
think that the district is being proactive, it is a It is an important

266
00:24:37.839 --> 00:24:44.480
news story, but nobody wants to
talk about it down there. Why because

267
00:24:44.559 --> 00:24:49.599
there are social justice issues. We'll
just throw that out there. There are

268
00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:57.480
social justice If you are at SJW
leftist board member and you hear the accusations

269
00:24:59.000 --> 00:25:03.759
and then you start rather than just
thinking about it purely from maybe one student

270
00:25:04.000 --> 00:25:10.119
or multiple students actually did this to
another student. That's the way you should

271
00:25:10.119 --> 00:25:14.799
approach it. But instead you start
going, well, you know, we

272
00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:19.359
have you know, we have diversity
issues here, and just all you have

273
00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:22.880
to do is sit there and say, look, we're aware of this.

274
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:30.759
We obviously our hands are tied on
discussing the progress and discipline of individual students,

275
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:34.519
but just know that we take it
very seriously. I know it sounds

276
00:25:34.559 --> 00:25:38.119
like a canned answer, but that's
all you have to do. And instead

277
00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:44.720
you have a reporter in Charlotte at
a school board meeting. You have to

278
00:25:44.759 --> 00:25:47.440
watch the video. We got that
for you. We tweeted it out.

279
00:25:47.519 --> 00:25:52.839
It's on our web page at Casey
on the radio and the school board.

280
00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:59.119
They're literally doing nothing right there other
than pretending to be on their phone ignoring

281
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:03.119
this reporter. Does no one think
it's a problem that CMS parents have to

282
00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:10.680
call WBTV because the school won't handle
their child's reported sexual assault appropriately? Miss

283
00:26:10.759 --> 00:26:14.759
Klein, do you have a problem
with that, miss easily? Why does

284
00:26:14.799 --> 00:26:18.839
this keep happening? Does it bother
you that this keeps happening? This is

285
00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:26.279
a pattern, mister Rankin, surely
you have to be bothered that Charlotte Mecklenburg

286
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:30.720
Schools didn't call police and didn't fill
out Title nine paperwork, which, by

287
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:34.079
the way, they are legally obligated
to do. And it is what the

288
00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:40.559
folks in Virginia got in trouble for
and even got charged with. Remember the

289
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:48.680
superintendent got charged up there for not
meeting their legal obligations based on those types

290
00:26:48.720 --> 00:26:56.200
of allegations. Why does this keep
happening so you have nothing to say to

291
00:26:56.240 --> 00:27:02.519
these parents who keep calling us for
help. I assure you he's not alone

292
00:27:02.559 --> 00:27:07.119
in a room talking to himself.
There is. There is at least seven

293
00:27:07.119 --> 00:27:11.359
other individuals in that room, and
you could hear a pin drop, Miss

294
00:27:11.440 --> 00:27:18.039
day Lahara. Do you have an
answer for these parents? Miss none?

295
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:21.119
Do you have anything to say to
these parents who keep calling us because they

296
00:27:21.160 --> 00:27:26.000
can't get help from the school district? Ma'am? Are you turning your back

297
00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:30.359
on parents who are worried about their
children? She's not on the phone,

298
00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:34.680
No, she's not. It's clearly
visible. And by the way, this

299
00:27:36.000 --> 00:27:40.559
report was his name, Nick Coxner. I see people accusing him of quote

300
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:44.599
ambushing them as somebody who covered school
boards. Let me let me explain to

301
00:27:44.599 --> 00:27:48.559
you how this happens. You disingenuous
pieces of crap. I used to have

302
00:27:48.599 --> 00:27:52.359
to go and cover school boards.
Right, you sit at the meeting,

303
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:56.799
when the meeting's over, if you
have a question, because you can't ask

304
00:27:56.880 --> 00:28:00.319
questions you as the reporter covering,
Yet you go up and you ask the

305
00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:04.680
board members. That is where I
got most of my audio and news stuff.

306
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:10.920
And he's asking legitimate questions. So
for people going, well, he's

307
00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:15.960
ambushing them. No, this is
literally the moment when you ask the questions

308
00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:23.160
of the board members. As a
reporter, you may call them throughout the

309
00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:27.000
day, you may, you know, schedule an interview other than that,

310
00:28:27.079 --> 00:28:33.960
But after the board meeting is when
you get the quote unquote actualities. That's

311
00:28:33.960 --> 00:28:38.640
how this is done. I did
it for years. Why won't Why won't

312
00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:48.200
any school board members say anything about
the district's inability to respond to these ma'am,

313
00:28:48.160 --> 00:28:55.000
you have nothing to say about personnel
matter. We're not asking about a

314
00:28:55.000 --> 00:28:57.079
personnel matter, and I appreciate that
we're not at this point even asking about

315
00:28:57.119 --> 00:29:03.079
a specific case. My question is
why have three parents in the last three

316
00:29:03.160 --> 00:29:07.960
months had to call WBTV instead of
the school district to get any action out

317
00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:11.480
of Charlotte Mecklenburgh Schools. That's not
a personnel matter, and that's not a

318
00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:15.680
specific case. This is a culture
inside the district that you are elected to

319
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:25.160
lead. Does that bother you?
You can't get your kids out of there

320
00:29:25.160 --> 00:29:30.279
fast enough. In January, doctor
Hill said that parents shouldn't have to call

321
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:33.880
WBTV to get help from the school
board. She said, parents should be

322
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:37.240
calling the school. But that has
happened three times now in three months and

323
00:29:37.279 --> 00:29:41.960
the school hasn't helped them. Is
that acceptable, Miss Dalahar? Is that

324
00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:48.480
acceptable? It's acceptable to the board. No one has anything to say.

325
00:29:49.240 --> 00:29:53.000
By the way, again, I
hate leaving long pauses, but they speak

326
00:29:53.039 --> 00:30:02.799
louder than almost anything he's saying.
This is is one of the multitude of

327
00:30:02.839 --> 00:30:04.119
reasons. And for those of you
go, well, what's going to be

328
00:30:04.160 --> 00:30:08.720
the difference at a private school.
Number of things. One, you can

329
00:30:08.799 --> 00:30:17.279
sue the private school. Two if
that went viral and the leadership of a

330
00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:23.480
private school was intentionally ignoring or not
meeting their obligations as it pertained to sexual

331
00:30:23.519 --> 00:30:32.200
assault. This is where choice comes
back into effect. If your kid is

332
00:30:32.240 --> 00:30:36.680
at a school and you have a
multitude of options. And at that school,

333
00:30:37.039 --> 00:30:45.720
other students are being sexually assaulted and
nobody's doing anything about it. Are

334
00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:51.920
you, as a parent not taking
that into account? Well, now imagine

335
00:30:51.960 --> 00:30:56.680
you don't have that choice. And
that's the situation that many parents down in

336
00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:03.240
Charlotte are dealing with. And not
a single one of these pieces of crap

337
00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:07.799
who were elected to be there will
even answer the question in the generic.

338
00:31:10.200 --> 00:31:12.559
They can even give a stand by
answer, and that would have appeased most

339
00:31:12.599 --> 00:31:17.759
people. You got to watch the
video though. It is awkward, uncomfortable

340
00:31:17.799 --> 00:31:22.079
and intentional, and it's up on
our blog and we tweeted it out.

341
00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:25.759
Check it out at Casey on the
Radio six forty nine to hang on.

342
00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:36.240
This is one O six one FM
Talk in the Triangle and News Talk nine

343
00:31:36.359 --> 00:31:42.000
five w PTI in the Triad.
All right, let's jamal. I'm gonna

344
00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:45.599
let you know right now. I
only got about two minutes and it's a

345
00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:48.680
hard break, so bit it in
serve, but go right, Okay,

346
00:31:51.119 --> 00:31:53.400
First of all, I want the
of course of say, that's heartbreak of

347
00:31:53.519 --> 00:31:57.960
what they did to Lincoln Bross the
Sun, that's unfairble case, my children

348
00:31:59.039 --> 00:32:04.480
vote apart Christian private school. And
you know what I really wish sometimes the

349
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:09.759
Republican Party can act like the Democrat
Party and give the Republican base what we

350
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:15.759
want every time we put these people
in office. We want the money to

351
00:32:15.799 --> 00:32:22.519
follow the cheats. If I don't
have my child and dumb public schools,

352
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:27.240
thank god that I don't, because
they are horrible. If I don't have

353
00:32:27.319 --> 00:32:31.279
my children and dumb public schools,
the money shall follow my wife and myself

354
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:37.240
to where we put our styled children. The reason why so many people are

355
00:32:37.319 --> 00:32:42.599
so big on keeping things in public
schools, it's because that's why they can

356
00:32:42.680 --> 00:32:46.079
adopt your nature children, but just
your will. Look how many times,

357
00:32:46.160 --> 00:32:51.119
case I just want to let people
know. When you hear diversity inclusion,

358
00:32:51.440 --> 00:32:55.440
that means exclude straight white Christian males
or Christians or white males. Or if

359
00:32:55.440 --> 00:33:00.000
you hear somebody to say we need
more givacity, we need even more inclusion,

360
00:33:00.039 --> 00:33:02.039
and that means we don't want white
nails. Okay, just let people

361
00:33:02.039 --> 00:33:08.519
another. But Casey, these people
sit here and adopt huts they want,

362
00:33:08.640 --> 00:33:13.279
they want to do, throw nows
against your back. How much stuff has

363
00:33:13.359 --> 00:33:16.440
came out about the like that we're
happening in Landing County. The little girl

364
00:33:16.519 --> 00:33:21.759
got raped because they wanted to say
it's okay for boys to use the girl's

365
00:33:21.839 --> 00:33:24.799
bathroom. Kind of find out little
girl got raped. They threw the demand

366
00:33:24.920 --> 00:33:28.319
on the print. That couldn't have
been me. I would cross my mind.

367
00:33:28.920 --> 00:33:30.839
Two kids got raped. Let's just
be very clear. Remember they've been

368
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:37.319
the same boy by the same boy. Yeah, hunt who was dressing up?

369
00:33:37.599 --> 00:33:42.400
These are the poem with public schools. Public schools are so focused on

370
00:33:42.519 --> 00:33:45.039
diversity needs and equal here casey,
just they match you this one question?

371
00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:51.119
Please can't the answer this? If
the black community is thirteen percent of the

372
00:33:51.200 --> 00:33:58.079
populsation, how can we demand equal
representation to people who are sixty percent of

373
00:33:58.079 --> 00:34:01.960
the population. Lutino a twenty percent
in the population. So one is if

374
00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:06.759
we had something, if you had
Jamal, I told you, man,

375
00:34:06.880 --> 00:34:29.400
I am out of time, but
I hear question you're asking, So m

376
00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:58.719
all right, just uh, I'm
this thing's gonna get messy um and it's

377
00:34:58.760 --> 00:35:05.519
Florida, so what the hell?
Look, I don't know one hundred percent

378
00:35:05.719 --> 00:35:09.199
what happened here there. As you
can imagine, there are multiple different stories.

379
00:35:09.239 --> 00:35:13.519
But here's what I do know,
and don't worry. If you're like,

380
00:35:13.559 --> 00:35:17.079
what is he talking about, I'll
explain. I don't know what happened,

381
00:35:17.079 --> 00:35:22.599
but this is the headline. This
is associated Press story, which of

382
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:28.599
course is then being rerun. I
saw it to WRL. But white woman

383
00:35:28.679 --> 00:35:36.760
who fatally shot black neighbor is arrested
in Florida. A Florida woman accused of

384
00:35:36.800 --> 00:35:43.199
fatally shooting her neighbor last week in
the violent culmination of what the sheriff described

385
00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:50.480
as a two and a half year
feud. This is o'calla Florida. So

386
00:35:50.840 --> 00:35:55.559
obviously, right there in the headline, rather than just you know, neighbor

387
00:35:55.639 --> 00:36:00.719
shoots neighbor and is now arrested,
it's white woman fatally shot black neighbor arrested

388
00:36:00.760 --> 00:36:06.360
in Florida. So we have the
racial component. And one of the reasons

389
00:36:06.679 --> 00:36:16.360
is there is an allegation that the
white woman in question had used racist language

390
00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:23.079
previously. And again, you got
a neighbor feud, so obviously lots of

391
00:36:23.079 --> 00:36:30.320
people make an allegations here. I
did the woman who was shot use racist

392
00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:36.119
I don't know. He's Here's what
I know. One woman shot another woman

393
00:36:36.199 --> 00:36:42.199
and did so through a door.
So already you're getting into sticky territory.

394
00:36:45.960 --> 00:36:51.800
But this thing's ready to go.
You got all of the social justice folks

395
00:36:52.599 --> 00:36:55.760
ready to go. If you don't
know the backstory, let me get into

396
00:36:55.800 --> 00:37:06.199
this. And of course they're blaming
racism and Florida's standiard ground law. Well,

397
00:37:06.239 --> 00:37:09.519
if if she's been arrested, and
I guess if law enforcement doesn't feel

398
00:37:09.599 --> 00:37:13.639
she met the requirements of the standard
ground law, then I don't know how

399
00:37:13.679 --> 00:37:22.840
you blame it, But whatever,
this whole thing's messy. Authorities came under

400
00:37:22.840 --> 00:37:25.840
pressure Tuesday to arrest and charge a
white woman who fired through the front door

401
00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:30.800
and killed a black neighbor, in
a case that has put Florida's divisive standiard

402
00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:45.039
ground law back in the spotlight.
Sheriff Billy Woods is the main law enforcement

403
00:37:45.039 --> 00:37:46.360
guy here in Okalla. All right, so the sheriff said, this is

404
00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:50.480
not a strand of standard ground case, but quote, simply a killing in

405
00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:55.639
our opinion. And if that's the
case, fine, nobody begrudges if somebody

406
00:37:55.679 --> 00:38:01.360
discharged a firearm did so in a
reckless manner and didn't quote, you know,

407
00:38:01.480 --> 00:38:06.159
fear for their life or the lives
of others, you know, which

408
00:38:06.199 --> 00:38:12.239
is kind of a very basic thing, then nobody begrudges you arresting them.

409
00:38:13.039 --> 00:38:15.800
But here's the backstory, and obviously
there's two and a half years of stuff,

410
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:24.239
but here's the most recent and detectives
investigated for about a week and this

411
00:38:24.320 --> 00:38:31.320
is the conclusion that they came to. All right, so let me get

412
00:38:31.360 --> 00:38:37.119
down to it. Of course,
the story is written pure social justice and

413
00:38:37.639 --> 00:38:40.159
if you if you don't know what
happened, it's kind of hard to follow

414
00:38:40.199 --> 00:38:46.280
the pattern. According to the woman
arrested, the woman she shot had been

415
00:38:46.599 --> 00:38:52.639
quote trying to break down her door
prior to her discharging the firearm. And

416
00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:57.440
look, here's the case. If
somebody's kicking your door in and means to

417
00:38:57.480 --> 00:39:05.559
do you harm and like that isn't
necessarily a nonjustifiable shooting. There's there's I'm

418
00:39:05.599 --> 00:39:08.320
not a lawyer, but there's lots
going on here. And it actually started

419
00:39:08.360 --> 00:39:20.840
with kids playing on a piece of
property and the shooter apparently telling him that's

420
00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:22.719
not that's not this is private property. To get the hell out of here.

421
00:39:23.639 --> 00:39:30.079
And she may or may not have
thrown a skate. However, when

422
00:39:30.119 --> 00:39:34.840
the kids left, apparently one of
the kids. Initially they didn't leave,

423
00:39:34.880 --> 00:39:37.480
and then when they did, one
of the kids left an iPad, which

424
00:39:37.480 --> 00:39:44.760
the woman retrieved and took himTo her
home, at which point the woman who

425
00:39:44.840 --> 00:39:51.360
was shot the mother of some of
the kids that were playing. Witnesses say

426
00:39:51.400 --> 00:39:55.039
that she went over to the white
woman's home to retrieve the iPad, I

427
00:39:55.079 --> 00:40:00.960
guess, and had quote knocked on
the neighbors door. So this comes down

428
00:40:01.000 --> 00:40:04.920
to is she knocking on the door
or is she you know, kicking the

429
00:40:04.960 --> 00:40:07.440
damn thing, trying to trying to
get it open, and you know,

430
00:40:07.920 --> 00:40:12.039
screamings I'm gonna, I'm you know, I'm gonna, I'm gonna do something

431
00:40:12.119 --> 00:40:16.119
to you. Detectives investigated and according
to their investigation, and I don't know

432
00:40:16.159 --> 00:40:21.360
how many witnesses they talked to,
they didn't feel that the shooting was justified,

433
00:40:22.159 --> 00:40:27.199
all right, according to all right, witness these are child. Witnesses

434
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:30.559
told police that a dispute ensued over
the children's tablet, and said that the

435
00:40:30.599 --> 00:40:36.320
woman had thrown a roller skate at
the juveniles, did not hit them,

436
00:40:36.320 --> 00:40:40.039
but threw one atom after she had
told them to get off her land,

437
00:40:40.920 --> 00:40:45.519
and according to the kids, when
she did so, she referred to the

438
00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:52.480
children using quote racial slurs. So
you know, I got one story here,

439
00:40:52.559 --> 00:40:58.559
one story there, I don't know. According to authorities, the children

440
00:40:58.599 --> 00:41:01.199
then left the area after the altercation, but left an iPad which the woman

441
00:41:01.239 --> 00:41:06.599
took. When one of the children
went to the residence to retrieve it,

442
00:41:07.360 --> 00:41:13.119
she threw it, hitting the child
and cracking the screen, according to the

443
00:41:13.280 --> 00:41:17.400
child, The police report did not
confirm that the woman had thrown the iPad.

444
00:41:19.000 --> 00:41:22.639
However, it did talk about oh, and it did say it was

445
00:41:22.679 --> 00:41:28.800
not able to confirm or deny allegations
that one the iPad was thrown, or

446
00:41:28.840 --> 00:41:35.199
that racial slurs were directed at kids. However, mom hears this, right,

447
00:41:35.599 --> 00:41:37.679
and you know, put yourself in
the woman who got shot shoes.

448
00:41:37.800 --> 00:41:42.639
She hears her kids are over playing
in on a piece of property. Now,

449
00:41:42.760 --> 00:41:46.159
kids are kids in the sense that
they see like an open field,

450
00:41:46.159 --> 00:41:49.719
even if it is private property,
they may go in there and play.

451
00:41:51.719 --> 00:41:55.639
I understand that. But mom hears
this, sees there's a broken iPad,

452
00:41:55.840 --> 00:42:00.400
and you know, here's the story. So she goes over to front this

453
00:42:00.519 --> 00:42:05.960
woman. However, now, adults
at the scene told police that the victim

454
00:42:06.000 --> 00:42:09.760
had begun knocking on the neighbor's door, at which point a weapon was fired

455
00:42:10.119 --> 00:42:15.719
through the door, which hit Owens
and killed her. The woman who was

456
00:42:15.800 --> 00:42:20.400
killed her last name is Owens,
at which point she staggered back, collapsed

457
00:42:20.400 --> 00:42:23.559
beneath a tree, and was in
the process of calling nine to one when

458
00:42:23.960 --> 00:42:32.280
she lost consciousness. There's lots of
info here, and a lot of it's

459
00:42:32.320 --> 00:42:35.599
he said, she said, she
said, she said, or whatever.

460
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:45.320
M Yeah, here's the thing.
This is where it gets messy, right,

461
00:42:45.360 --> 00:42:47.360
you should if she did throw a
skate at the kids, which you

462
00:42:47.639 --> 00:42:53.639
shouldn't do. I don't know how
that you're you're allowed to use I'm not

463
00:42:53.719 --> 00:42:58.880
justifying this. That's you know,
throwing a rollerblade at a bunch of kids

464
00:42:59.000 --> 00:43:02.679
is stupid. However, in the
state of Florida, you're allowed to use

465
00:43:02.800 --> 00:43:07.280
non deadly force to protect your property. But is a bunch of kids,

466
00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:12.400
you know, sitting there and I
don't even know if it's her property.

467
00:43:12.400 --> 00:43:15.440
They don't even speak to that in
this police report. The point that I'm

468
00:43:15.480 --> 00:43:22.239
making is from the get go,
this is being portrayed as a racial crime.

469
00:43:22.360 --> 00:43:29.280
However, the only racial component is
a statement by a kid and maybe

470
00:43:29.280 --> 00:43:32.320
the kids one hundred percent accurate.
That being said, it sounds like there

471
00:43:32.400 --> 00:43:39.079
was a feud going on for quite
some time, and it was she didn't

472
00:43:39.159 --> 00:43:44.519
this woman didn't like kids playing on
her property or being loud in the neighborhood.

473
00:43:44.679 --> 00:43:50.679
And there was some other issues about
music. And look, I encourage

474
00:43:50.679 --> 00:43:52.440
you to read all of it,
but just know that when you see stories,

475
00:43:52.599 --> 00:44:01.880
it's all being pitched in this racial
component. I don't know. Now,

476
00:44:02.079 --> 00:44:07.360
there's also a claim that as the
woman was in in the words of

477
00:44:07.960 --> 00:44:15.119
her the witness quote knocking on the
door versus the statement from the woman who

478
00:44:15.199 --> 00:44:20.199
shot, saying she was trying to
use force to get through the door.

479
00:44:21.239 --> 00:44:28.079
Um, they do agree that at
one point the woman said I've got a

480
00:44:28.159 --> 00:44:36.280
gun and I'm going to start shooting
through the door, which you know,

481
00:44:36.679 --> 00:44:39.639
if if that was happening, I
don't know that that's unreasonable. But so

482
00:44:39.639 --> 00:44:49.199
whole thing's messy. By the way, that's just to be clear, um,

483
00:44:49.800 --> 00:44:52.000
that that statement is attributed not to
the woman who shot, but to

484
00:44:52.079 --> 00:44:58.119
the woman who was either knocking or
attempting to break down the door. That's

485
00:44:58.159 --> 00:45:01.840
the claim that the woman who was
shot yelled, quote, I've got a

486
00:45:01.920 --> 00:45:07.840
gun and I'm going to start shooting
through this door. But that's also claimed

487
00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:13.119
by the woman who opened fire,
which obviously if nobody else says that's what's

488
00:45:13.159 --> 00:45:17.719
happened, it's it's self serving.
So but here's what I would argue,

489
00:45:19.440 --> 00:45:23.480
wait for more of this to come
out, but know that most of the

490
00:45:23.519 --> 00:45:28.800
coverage is going to be now fed
to you through this racial component, and

491
00:45:28.960 --> 00:45:34.760
it could run the gamut from justified
shooting too, you know, clan member

492
00:45:34.800 --> 00:45:38.519
opening fire because now it's her chance. I suspect it lies somewhere in between.

493
00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:46.280
They're going over some of the legal
here. Sorry, I'm kind of

494
00:45:46.320 --> 00:45:52.000
digesting this at the very same time
as I'm sharing it with you because I

495
00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:59.880
have not seen the police report until
now. Let's go. They're just talking

496
00:46:00.000 --> 00:46:02.000
about Florida's stuff, all right.
So, UM, you know, if

497
00:46:02.000 --> 00:46:05.599
you're interested in that story, you
want to know more, I would encourage

498
00:46:05.639 --> 00:46:07.559
you to, you know, get
all the facts, figure out who's saying

499
00:46:07.599 --> 00:46:14.800
what happened, and and and also
what investigators have to say. But um,

500
00:46:15.840 --> 00:46:17.880
make up your own mind whether you
feel that this is some super duper

501
00:46:17.960 --> 00:46:27.599
racial hate crime or murder or justifiable
homicide, because obviously it could be a

502
00:46:27.639 --> 00:46:30.519
whole lot of stuff anyway. Eight
eight eight nine three four seven eight seven

503
00:46:30.639 --> 00:46:37.199
four. Um, I know we'll
be hearing more about that, all right,

504
00:46:37.280 --> 00:46:42.960
coming up, Um, we got
speaking of hate crimes. Ross,

505
00:46:43.000 --> 00:46:45.880
you're been to la Oh. I
know you have because you went to that

506
00:46:45.920 --> 00:46:49.440
producer's house, right, you did
the American idol? Yeah? Yeah,

507
00:46:49.800 --> 00:46:53.480
and then what do you guys like
pee behind his side? But someone in

508
00:46:53.519 --> 00:46:58.840
another radio station didn't happen to pee
behind his grand piano in front of his

509
00:46:58.880 --> 00:47:02.719
wall of Grammys. I've admitted to
taking photo. They specifically told us listen,

510
00:47:04.280 --> 00:47:08.119
do not touch the Grammys. They
left the room. Sure makes sense.

511
00:47:08.199 --> 00:47:12.719
Yeah, and me and my radio
buddies, we we picked up the

512
00:47:12.760 --> 00:47:15.679
Grammys. We took photos like,
you know, like an acceptance, like,

513
00:47:15.679 --> 00:47:16.599
oh I can't believe it. What
a Grammy? Right, and we

514
00:47:16.639 --> 00:47:20.079
posted them at the time. I
think it was my Space at the time.

515
00:47:20.840 --> 00:47:23.159
How that being said, I am
not the one that peed behind the

516
00:47:23.159 --> 00:47:29.920
grand piano. Okay, Well you
seem very I don't like the accusation,

517
00:47:30.079 --> 00:47:35.079
very defensive. I don't like your
tone. Okay. Um was that where

518
00:47:35.199 --> 00:47:37.760
was where was this house like Beverly
Hills? Yeah? No, it was

519
00:47:37.800 --> 00:47:43.639
like the Beverly like but the Hollywood
area, Hollywood Hills. Yeah, And

520
00:47:43.679 --> 00:47:46.239
we hadn't take they gave they drove
us out. It was out like in

521
00:47:46.239 --> 00:47:51.039
the middle of nowhere until like Malibu
or whatever. And then they we had

522
00:47:51.119 --> 00:47:53.199
to take golf carts up all the
way up to the hill up to his

523
00:47:53.239 --> 00:47:57.920
mansion because it's literally on like this
ginormous hill. Well, Malibu is not

524
00:47:58.000 --> 00:48:00.239
Hollywood Hills. Wherever the hell it
was, man, it was it was.

525
00:48:00.920 --> 00:48:05.719
We were in Hollywood obviously for like
the show's stuff. Right, Okay,

526
00:48:07.079 --> 00:48:09.480
do you remember when you were in
Hollywood? Um, do you remember

527
00:48:09.480 --> 00:48:14.320
thinking, Wow, this is Maga
Country? Uh? Did not feel that

528
00:48:14.360 --> 00:48:19.199
way. I don't know David Foster's
Um, you know, it's politics.

529
00:48:19.199 --> 00:48:21.679
I'm gonna sure what it is.
But I mean he's obviously got a lot

530
00:48:21.679 --> 00:48:23.239
of money, so he might be
a Republican. No, no, no,

531
00:48:23.280 --> 00:48:25.880
I'm not talking about his foster necessarily. I'm just like, what was

532
00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:30.480
your feeling when you were in the
Hollywood area, obviously like the show taping

533
00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:32.559
and stuff, which is probably studio
city near Hollywood. Mean, i mean

534
00:48:32.559 --> 00:48:37.639
it's Hollywood, so Maga country,
right, Obviously it was sort of the

535
00:48:37.679 --> 00:48:42.239
opposite. Oh he felt it was
the opposite. Well, that's weird because

536
00:48:42.519 --> 00:48:49.760
I saw the story yesterday about Elliott
Page former what Ellen Page um from the

537
00:48:49.840 --> 00:48:59.480
Juno Movies, um who um was
verbally attacked and threatened by a crazed transphobic

538
00:48:59.559 --> 00:49:05.960
man in West Hollywood, which is
extra weird if you don't know the Los

539
00:49:06.039 --> 00:49:09.760
Angeles area. Obviously, it is
a very liberal area. However, West

540
00:49:09.800 --> 00:49:19.920
Hollywood is arguably the mecca of it, especially on the LGBT front. Okay,

541
00:49:20.320 --> 00:49:24.719
remember the remember the mayor dude who
like kept having his boyfriend his young

542
00:49:24.800 --> 00:49:29.480
boyfriends like method and it was like
a whole They ended up arresting that guy.

543
00:49:29.760 --> 00:49:32.920
Yeah, guy had bad luck.
Yeah that was West Hollywood, where

544
00:49:32.960 --> 00:49:40.800
he was an elected official and giant
Biden owner. Okay, so when we

545
00:49:40.840 --> 00:49:50.519
come back, Elliott Page claims that
that they were confronted by just some random,

546
00:49:50.599 --> 00:49:54.239
crazy transphobic person. How do I
know, Because it's just one of

547
00:49:54.239 --> 00:50:00.840
the many anecdotes that have ended up
in their new book, which just so

548
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:06.920
happens to come out this week.
And I don't know, I'm getting some

549
00:50:06.920 --> 00:50:09.000
small lead vibes. I don't know. I'll lay it out for you.

550
00:50:09.239 --> 00:50:14.880
We'll let you be the judge figure
out what happened. But it's a pretty

551
00:50:14.920 --> 00:50:19.519
crazy trend in these big, big, big lib areas. So details on

552
00:50:19.599 --> 00:50:22.679
that and much more coming your way. K c O Day Radio program back

553
00:50:22.679 --> 00:50:30.119
in a few one oh six one
FM Talk and nine five w PTI,

554
00:50:30.559 --> 00:50:37.079
two stations driving the best in talk. This is case O Day and Carolina's

555
00:50:37.159 --> 00:50:50.000
Morning News. All right, good
morning, it is seven thirty five here

556
00:50:50.039 --> 00:50:57.599
on the k c O Day Radio
program. Wow, that didn't last long.

557
00:50:58.440 --> 00:51:00.960
So, I don't know if you
saw the story up in New York.

558
00:51:01.119 --> 00:51:12.480
They city's got some new vending machines. They're free though, so you

559
00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:20.119
know there's that what's in them crack
pipes, lip balm, and narcan.

560
00:51:23.400 --> 00:51:30.960
The vending machines, which initially were
placed in Brooklyn, lasted one day before

561
00:51:30.079 --> 00:51:37.480
they were completely emptied. In fact, they didn't even last a day.

562
00:51:37.679 --> 00:51:43.679
So they put him in there in
the morning and by one pm everything inside

563
00:51:43.760 --> 00:51:45.960
was gone. Actually it has more
than that. What else's in their condoms

564
00:51:45.960 --> 00:51:57.360
are in there? That's nice drug
testing strips. Oh, this is great

565
00:51:57.400 --> 00:52:05.159
self described crack smoker Minotia Coalpe.
So the so the media shows up.

566
00:52:05.360 --> 00:52:07.440
They you know, they got the
new vending machines. They're gonna go do

567
00:52:07.480 --> 00:52:13.440
a story and they see this woman
around eleven am getting some items out of

568
00:52:13.440 --> 00:52:20.199
there. Self described crack smoker,
you might as well use. Enthusiast Minosha

569
00:52:20.280 --> 00:52:27.920
Coupe showed up to the machine just
as New York Post reporter was there.

570
00:52:28.679 --> 00:52:36.039
However, apparently made a last minute
decision not to not to get anything else

571
00:52:36.119 --> 00:52:45.880
after initially getting one of the free
crack pipes, and said that the crack

572
00:52:45.920 --> 00:52:50.840
pipes are not good. She said
that she wished the city officials instead had

573
00:52:50.880 --> 00:53:00.119
put pyrex because it's thicker and better
for smoking crack. So she she wants

574
00:53:00.159 --> 00:53:02.679
smoke crack. She's a big fan
of crack. She shows up where there's

575
00:53:02.719 --> 00:53:08.199
free crack pipes. However, she
then complains because they're not up to her

576
00:53:08.559 --> 00:53:16.039
standards. She says, these crack
pipes that they're giving away are too thin,

577
00:53:16.880 --> 00:53:21.440
and if you smoke a lot of
crack, you could end up burning

578
00:53:21.480 --> 00:53:23.079
your lips. Well, God forbid, that's why they have the lip bomb.

579
00:53:23.079 --> 00:53:30.679
Woman, you got the lip bomb? Would asked how much crack she

580
00:53:30.800 --> 00:53:36.039
normally smokes, She says, God, a little here and there. I

581
00:53:36.039 --> 00:53:40.920
also smoke weed, but I don't
ever lace none my stuff with stuff.

582
00:53:43.480 --> 00:53:49.000
Well that's good, glad. She
clarified that ross do you ever laced your

583
00:53:49.199 --> 00:53:52.960
Do you doune lace your stuff with
stuff or you prefer not to dune lace

584
00:53:52.039 --> 00:53:55.840
your stuff with stuff? Which team
are you on? I'm more of a

585
00:53:55.880 --> 00:54:05.119
classicist, like in original originalists.
Yeah, originalists, So you're done lacing

586
00:54:05.199 --> 00:54:08.440
your stuff with stuff. Does she
want like the like the vintage Piratex crack

587
00:54:08.480 --> 00:54:13.239
pipe they sell down at the flea
market. Yes, yeah, she feels

588
00:54:13.239 --> 00:54:16.000
that the ones that are the free
ones that are in here. Um,

589
00:54:16.639 --> 00:54:22.320
that stuff's expensive. Man. People
go crazy over those people because, like

590
00:54:22.400 --> 00:54:24.119
you know, Lincoln needs to go, like to go down to the fairgrounds

591
00:54:24.119 --> 00:54:28.360
the flea market there, and there's
this one woman because Markie went through a

592
00:54:28.360 --> 00:54:31.440
phase of collecting pirates bowls, and
there's one woman known down to the flea

593
00:54:31.519 --> 00:54:36.119
market known for this and she's got
her one little cubby there and it's like

594
00:54:36.960 --> 00:54:44.000
just old no Pyrex bowls, and
but they're super expensive. Oh a nuts.

595
00:54:44.039 --> 00:54:45.960
So yeah, dude, people are
nuts over them. So I'm just

596
00:54:45.000 --> 00:54:50.440
wondering, like, what what kind
of Pirex does this passionate woman about crack

597
00:54:50.760 --> 00:54:54.559
want. Well, that's what she
wants. She wants Pyrex. Apparently these

598
00:54:54.599 --> 00:55:00.199
are not made out of pirates,
so they're they're I mean, she's just

599
00:55:00.239 --> 00:55:04.840
being ridiculous, now, well is
she? I mean, this is a

600
00:55:04.880 --> 00:55:08.559
woman who done doesn't lace her stuff
with stuff, so obviously you know she

601
00:55:08.679 --> 00:55:13.199
probably knows what she's talking about.
Is is what I'm saying. How can

602
00:55:13.239 --> 00:55:15.280
you have an idea like this where
if we're just as somebody or throw it

603
00:55:15.320 --> 00:55:17.719
as like right, like, hey, I want to have a vending machine

604
00:55:17.719 --> 00:55:23.679
full of crackhead stuff and condoms and
condoms like yes, wouldn't your first idea

605
00:55:23.719 --> 00:55:27.320
be like someone's gonna break into that, like the hitchpot thing, remember,

606
00:55:27.320 --> 00:55:31.000
like someone's gonna murder that bot free, it's free, all the stuff,

607
00:55:31.440 --> 00:55:34.159
it's gonna take it? Then,
like, what are you even thinking?

608
00:55:34.440 --> 00:55:37.079
Have you ever met a crackhead before? I have? Yeah, they're big

609
00:55:37.119 --> 00:55:43.800
fans of taking all the stuff.
Yeah yeah, well except this crackhead who

610
00:55:44.119 --> 00:55:45.719
is not a fan of the current
pipe situation. Not even that. Have

611
00:55:45.760 --> 00:55:49.320
you ever done a radio remote before
where you have a bin full of T

612
00:55:49.440 --> 00:55:52.519
shirts that are free? Oh?
Yea? How how fast does that last?

613
00:55:53.800 --> 00:55:58.039
I had? I remember not just
T shirts but CDs. I remember

614
00:55:58.039 --> 00:56:00.320
doing some at the fair one time, and it was like one per family,

615
00:56:00.800 --> 00:56:05.199
and like somebody hurts. Some people
in line heard that, and I

616
00:56:05.320 --> 00:56:09.000
watched them scatter and pretend they didn't
know each other so they could all get

617
00:56:09.000 --> 00:56:12.800
a free thing. Right, So
now take called about on it, and

618
00:56:12.800 --> 00:56:16.840
they're like, well, technically,
uh, tactically worst, uh, you

619
00:56:16.920 --> 00:56:20.840
know, that's I don't know,
I don't know who that is. But

620
00:56:20.920 --> 00:56:22.920
and then she's like, no,
but it's my step sister or something like

621
00:56:23.719 --> 00:56:30.039
right, right, and multiplied by
a thousand because you're a crackhead. But

622
00:56:30.079 --> 00:56:32.159
a discerning crackhead. Knowing this,
they still pass and say, Yeah,

623
00:56:32.199 --> 00:56:35.239
we're gonna this is gonna be a
thing. We're gonna the vending machine.

624
00:56:35.719 --> 00:56:42.559
Mm hmm, I mean it's uh, and this is just the start.

625
00:56:42.599 --> 00:56:45.800
According to city officials and New York
future machines may include syringes. Well they

626
00:56:45.880 --> 00:56:52.960
better get high quality ones, uh, to a cater to heroin addicts,

627
00:56:58.519 --> 00:57:04.679
why the hell not? Oh?
And apparently with the narcan they just they

628
00:57:04.679 --> 00:57:07.280
assume that some of the people are
taking them all out of there and then

629
00:57:07.280 --> 00:57:09.079
selling them. Right, they're not
even keeping them on their person, should

630
00:57:09.119 --> 00:57:13.559
they od they realized, hey,
you know what, you can sell those

631
00:57:14.199 --> 00:57:17.519
which apparently you were just talking about
crackheads apparently as something else that crackheads like

632
00:57:17.599 --> 00:57:22.719
to do. Sell whatever they can. You know why, because then you

633
00:57:22.719 --> 00:57:30.519
can buy crack. Who knew?
I just wonder how much these things are.

634
00:57:30.679 --> 00:57:35.960
Sorry, I'm scanning this article.
How much is the free crack pipe

635
00:57:36.480 --> 00:57:43.920
vending machine? Slash condom program doesn't
say, just says this is an initiative

636
00:57:44.519 --> 00:57:51.000
by Mayor Eric Adams, blah blah
blah. Come on, there's no dollar

637
00:57:51.039 --> 00:57:53.800
amount in this article. I have
to know whatever it is. By the

638
00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:57.480
way, whatever they tell you it
costs, I'm sure it costs twice then

639
00:57:58.719 --> 00:58:01.960
absolutely bonkers. Man. You know
what else's bonkers? Raced agent from the

640
00:58:01.960 --> 00:58:07.079
Weather Channel trying to smoke you out. Crazy stuff. Man, dude,

641
00:58:07.199 --> 00:58:09.840
it's like the weather like dad,
don't go outside today if you're in central

642
00:58:09.880 --> 00:58:15.000
North Carolina. Yeah, the whole
state EPA has put air quality alerts out

643
00:58:15.000 --> 00:58:21.400
for now. We like attack the
Canadians. What's going on here? Seriously.

644
00:58:21.440 --> 00:58:23.719
The only other time I remember this
being likeness with that warning was there

645
00:58:23.840 --> 00:58:27.679
was a huge It was a few
years ago. There was huge fires out

646
00:58:27.679 --> 00:58:31.400
by like Lake Lure in western North
Carolina, and there were a few others,

647
00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:35.599
and I remember how eerie it was, and now it's like it's coming

648
00:58:35.679 --> 00:58:38.280
from Canada. Really yeah, but
this is where we be. So you

649
00:58:38.440 --> 00:58:45.719
get two hundred and thirty nine wildfires
burning in Canada, and wildfire meaning I

650
00:58:45.719 --> 00:58:47.719
think it's a thousand acres or more. Yeah, it's either one hundred or

651
00:58:47.719 --> 00:58:52.320
thousand. Either way, there's a
threshold. And they've already burned about let's

652
00:58:52.360 --> 00:58:59.360
say six million acres. Typically in
a year, six point eight million acres

653
00:58:59.440 --> 00:59:01.400
is the average. So they've already
burned this year in Canada in terms of

654
00:59:01.400 --> 00:59:07.800
wildfire almost their entire year allotment or
what actually actually happens during the average year

655
00:59:07.840 --> 00:59:09.840
or so, they're above average.
It's been very dry, obviously, and

656
00:59:09.960 --> 00:59:15.800
that's smoke now with the trajectory coming
in from the north northwest as driven even

657
00:59:15.840 --> 00:59:19.480
as far south now as North Georgia. Are quality alerts all across the state

658
00:59:19.519 --> 00:59:22.159
today, unhealthy air mass. I
might even smell a little smoke in the

659
00:59:22.159 --> 00:59:25.719
air, the hazy sunshine. Maybe
a few showers as we go through later

660
00:59:25.800 --> 00:59:30.039
this morning and into the afternoon,
especially a better chance mid to late afternoon,

661
00:59:30.119 --> 00:59:35.239
so we'll go triad coming from the
northwest and across the triangle, maybe

662
00:59:35.239 --> 00:59:38.280
a few thunderstorms, but nothing in
the way of severe weather. Upper seventies

663
00:59:38.280 --> 00:59:40.679
today, then the front and go
south will be in the pleasant mid upper

664
00:59:40.760 --> 00:59:45.039
fifties tomorrow morning, so a little
cooler and at a beautiful end of the

665
00:59:45.079 --> 00:59:49.639
week for Thursday and Friday, Hovering
on either side of eighty and overnight lows

666
00:59:49.679 --> 00:59:52.239
in the low fifties, we may
see some forties in some spots, especially

667
00:59:52.320 --> 00:59:55.719
the further west you go by Friday
morning and right now shape it up for

668
00:59:55.719 --> 01:00:00.840
a warmer and beautiful weekend. Middle
eighties for most, could get close to

669
01:00:00.920 --> 01:00:06.039
ninety in the Triangle on Sunday.
Um. Not really sure how long it's

670
01:00:06.039 --> 01:00:08.639
smoke's gonna stick around. I mean, there's nothing that actually predicts, you

671
01:00:08.679 --> 01:00:12.360
know, forecast days in advance,
but I think at least through today,

672
01:00:12.400 --> 01:00:15.320
maybe tomorrow. I'm not quite sure
we lose this haze and smoke, as

673
01:00:15.360 --> 01:00:19.599
there's nothing really to move things along
all that quickly. So yeah, kind

674
01:00:19.639 --> 01:00:21.519
of touch and go. Looks pretty, I mean, the sun looks like

675
01:00:21.519 --> 01:00:24.199
a star out there in some spots, but kind of nasty. Casey,

676
01:00:24.440 --> 01:00:28.519
and you must have seen some of
the shots from Yankee Stadium last night on

677
01:00:28.559 --> 01:00:32.039
the news. Yeah, but then
I'm don't care. Oh hey, now,

678
01:00:32.679 --> 01:00:36.719
uh huh, yeah, that's that's
what I said. I said right

679
01:00:36.800 --> 01:00:39.599
though he went there. But but
I was pretty actually was watching like a

680
01:00:39.639 --> 01:00:45.559
live cam from the h on the
Empire State Building or something this morning,

681
01:00:45.559 --> 01:00:51.960
and it's like you can't even see
it lose again. Yeah, that's no,

682
01:00:52.119 --> 01:00:55.280
shut up. Really, I think
I have you judges on the injured

683
01:00:55.320 --> 01:01:00.559
reserve or something, or I haven't
been paying at I was saying, I

684
01:01:00.559 --> 01:01:02.719
was gonna pay attention to after the
All Star break because it's just what's the

685
01:01:02.840 --> 01:01:07.679
point. But now I found this
out, I was gonna make a smog

686
01:01:07.760 --> 01:01:10.000
joke. That's awful. Yeah,
well this is not the year. You

687
01:01:10.039 --> 01:01:14.119
know who lit the fire, Ross, Aaron Boone, so he needs to

688
01:01:14.119 --> 01:01:17.280
be sitting to the sun. I
hate that, Aaron Boon. All right,

689
01:01:19.000 --> 01:01:22.480
well we'll truck through. We'll talk
to you in an hour or sounds

690
01:01:22.519 --> 01:01:23.440
good? All right? By the
way, Ross, I figured out how

691
01:01:23.480 --> 01:01:27.480
much these vending machines got. How
much this is before they put anything in

692
01:01:27.519 --> 01:01:30.280
it because they have to be customized. How much do you think one vending

693
01:01:30.320 --> 01:01:32.920
machine costs? I mean, because
it's a government vending machine. So remember

694
01:01:32.920 --> 01:01:37.119
when they had the tents. Where
was it in Seattle or San Francisco?

695
01:01:37.159 --> 01:01:39.639
No, San Francisco, And they
were like five thousand or ten thousand dollars

696
01:01:39.679 --> 01:01:45.880
tents for homeless people did the same
thing, same costs eleven thousand dollars for

697
01:01:46.000 --> 01:01:50.920
one vending machine before you put any
which is just gonna get ransacked, and

698
01:01:50.960 --> 01:01:53.719
just well they had already did that. They had it as by like one

699
01:01:54.000 --> 01:02:01.440
completely incompetent. And then the woman
who does done, not mixed stuff,

700
01:02:01.519 --> 01:02:07.519
was stuff. After they were done
talking to her, another man quote approached

701
01:02:09.920 --> 01:02:14.400
and started screaming at the reporter.
I don't care what the f you put

702
01:02:14.400 --> 01:02:17.559
in there. You're better off moving
that and putting an ambulance in there.

703
01:02:19.480 --> 01:02:24.840
What and then yelled as he and
this is the actual word from as he

704
01:02:24.920 --> 01:02:32.400
quote danced off yelled, yeah,
boy, was it flavor? Flav This

705
01:02:32.519 --> 01:02:37.639
whole article is insane. But I
guess you're all your quotes are from crackheads.

706
01:02:37.679 --> 01:02:42.480
So what you won? All right? Seven forty seven eleven thousand dollars

707
01:02:42.559 --> 01:02:47.320
for a vending machine? Of course, it is all right. We'll be

708
01:02:47.320 --> 01:02:58.199
back. Hang on your day.
Smarter one FM Talk and News PTI more

709
01:02:58.519 --> 01:03:08.840
with Casey Arts Now they're all and
they're gonna put twenty of these vending machines.

710
01:03:08.840 --> 01:03:16.000
I'm sorry, I just keep digesting
this story. I'm pretty sure ross

711
01:03:16.079 --> 01:03:20.800
the food vending machine in the break
room, right, So we got three

712
01:03:20.840 --> 01:03:22.320
in the break room. We got
a coke machine, pepsi machine, but

713
01:03:22.360 --> 01:03:25.920
we also have one of the random
food ones. So it's got everything from

714
01:03:25.960 --> 01:03:29.320
it. Actually, you know,
it's got gatorades in there, but it

715
01:03:29.360 --> 01:03:32.280
also has you know, like kit
cats and bags of peanuts and all that.

716
01:03:32.559 --> 01:03:37.639
But the point is that vending machine. You can put whatever you want

717
01:03:37.679 --> 01:03:39.880
there. And that's we've seen that
because I've been here with the you know,

718
01:03:40.000 --> 01:03:44.199
in Raleigh since two thousand and six. I've known that vending machine.

719
01:03:44.719 --> 01:03:50.800
It's gone through three different like themes
and reiterations right right back in the day,

720
01:03:50.960 --> 01:03:52.960
versions of all the bad stuff.
Back in the day, it was

721
01:03:52.000 --> 01:03:55.320
like normal vending machine stuff and then
yeah, now it's now it's like super

722
01:03:55.400 --> 01:04:00.679
healthy stuff. But it's the same
machine, meaning whatever the size of the

723
01:04:00.719 --> 01:04:03.480
item is, you can find a
spot for it, which is the insanity

724
01:04:03.719 --> 01:04:10.719
of spending eleven thousand dollars on a
customized machine when crack pipes are roughly the

725
01:04:10.800 --> 01:04:14.679
size of the candy bars. Do
you know what I'm saying? Like,

726
01:04:14.760 --> 01:04:17.559
I don't understand it, but maybe
they they're like worried that, you know,

727
01:04:17.639 --> 01:04:20.400
like the crackhead like runs up to
like, oh I need a narcan

728
01:04:20.480 --> 01:04:27.119
it like it gets stuck like a
TwixT bar or something sending you a message,

729
01:04:27.119 --> 01:04:29.760
you know what I'm saying. Right, It's like nope, no,

730
01:04:30.000 --> 01:04:35.199
this is it? That would be
awkward, right, find somebody odeed right

731
01:04:35.199 --> 01:04:39.760
in front of it and there's just
a narcan can like leaning against the glass

732
01:04:39.800 --> 01:04:45.320
there. Well that's a morbid thought. Um, all right, a couple

733
01:04:45.360 --> 01:04:49.480
of things. By the way,
I don't understand why they are expending an

734
01:04:49.480 --> 01:04:54.960
ounce of effort on this. This
is amazing, this story right here.

735
01:04:54.960 --> 01:04:58.440
I gotta tell I'm jealous that I'm
not back in high school in Wyoming,

736
01:04:58.440 --> 01:05:00.840
because me and my buddies would have
thought this was I've told you there were

737
01:05:00.840 --> 01:05:04.760
big fans of tourist goring season.
Right. There's not a lot to do,

738
01:05:04.880 --> 01:05:08.880
not a lot of entertainment Wyoming.
You got to pick your own adventure.

739
01:05:08.960 --> 01:05:13.320
But once the Yellowstone opened up,
there was more than enough stories.

740
01:05:13.320 --> 01:05:16.079
And already this year we had the
idiot who grabbed the baby bison, which

741
01:05:16.079 --> 01:05:21.679
had to be euthanized because the herd
wouldn't let it back in. So we

742
01:05:21.800 --> 01:05:26.639
had the woman on the boardwalk film
and TikTok's with a bison. That didn't

743
01:05:26.679 --> 01:05:32.000
work out well. And now this
you're ready. A viral video has Yellowstone

744
01:05:32.039 --> 01:05:45.400
Park officials searching for a man after
several videos emerged of him repeatedly jumping out

745
01:05:45.400 --> 01:05:57.719
of a vehicle and harassing bears.
Why or why this will dude, don't

746
01:05:57.760 --> 01:06:02.320
do anything? In fact, you
don't not actually let me correct myself.

747
01:06:02.559 --> 01:06:10.039
Here's what I want you to do. Go and like his post, encourage

748
01:06:10.119 --> 01:06:15.119
him, okay, in like,
this is great. This is why we

749
01:06:15.239 --> 01:06:19.119
opened Yellowstone. This is what Teddy
Roosevelt talked about. This is what we

750
01:06:19.159 --> 01:06:23.280
want because in the video, here's
what you see. So you see a

751
01:06:23.320 --> 01:06:27.000
Toyota pull over on the side of
the road. There's a bear there.

752
01:06:28.039 --> 01:06:30.960
Not all that uncommon. I've spent
many, many, many, many many

753
01:06:31.039 --> 01:06:35.119
many hours driving in and around Yellowstone
Park. My uncle worked there. I'd

754
01:06:35.159 --> 01:06:40.679
go spend parts of my summer there. In fact, I used to like

755
01:06:40.760 --> 01:06:43.960
to drive around and then whip over
the side of the road and then like

756
01:06:44.119 --> 01:06:48.840
start pretend like it was taking pictures
into an empty field because all the other

757
01:06:49.199 --> 01:06:54.280
cars would pull over and then I'd
take off, and then they would just

758
01:06:54.320 --> 01:06:57.360
be there, Oh well, what's
over there? And because I was,

759
01:06:57.480 --> 01:07:00.079
you know, I was a jerk
um. But in the video, this

760
01:07:00.119 --> 01:07:03.280
guy jumps out of the car and
there's a bear. There is a bear

761
01:07:03.360 --> 01:07:08.840
there, and in this case,
a black bear. I wish he'd upgrade

762
01:07:08.840 --> 01:07:12.840
to grizzly, rushes over and starts
grunning at the bear, which of course

763
01:07:12.920 --> 01:07:15.480
runs off nine point nine percent of
the time unless he got cubs black bears

764
01:07:15.599 --> 01:07:21.000
getting out of there. They booked
man and then turns back towards the camera,

765
01:07:21.239 --> 01:07:27.320
rips his shirt off, and starts
crouching and snarling like a gorilla while

766
01:07:27.360 --> 01:07:34.599
flexing his muscles. I want you
to do nothing park officials except encourage this,

767
01:07:35.719 --> 01:07:44.840
like it, retweet it. This
is self correcting and by all means,

768
01:07:44.880 --> 01:07:47.440
I want his buddy to keep filming
it too. And then when when

769
01:07:47.440 --> 01:07:53.639
that day comes when he decides to
bull rush a bear because he didn't look

770
01:07:53.639 --> 01:07:57.519
to see that there was a cub
over there, and this goes wildly differently,

771
01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:06.719
I demand that that video be uploaded. The video published to the Instagram

772
01:08:06.760 --> 01:08:15.239
account turns of Yellowstone. Good Lord
Park spokeswoman Linda Veris assured the public the

773
01:08:15.280 --> 01:08:18.880
park is looking into it, and
pointed out that the incident would likely be

774
01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:24.239
a misdemeanor, which could earn you
six months in jail and five thousand dollars

775
01:08:24.279 --> 01:08:32.439
fines. What terrifies Yellowstone authorities is
this trend could end up a chi Oh

776
01:08:32.520 --> 01:08:36.920
this is is this a thing?
Is this a challenge? Oh? I'm

777
01:08:36.960 --> 01:08:44.239
here for this. Get him to
do it with moose too. People underestimate

778
01:08:44.760 --> 01:08:47.600
how much a moose wants to kill
you and how big they are too,

779
01:08:48.000 --> 01:08:51.479
yes, oh yeah, yeah yeah. And the Shires that the shire mooses

780
01:08:51.479 --> 01:08:55.840
that they're not even like the Canadian
sized ones. They're actually quite a bit

781
01:08:55.840 --> 01:08:59.800
small in the Canadian ones. And
they're still gigantic. Oh yeah, let's

782
01:09:00.039 --> 01:09:26.960
encourage this. We film it all. All right, Good morning, everybody,

783
01:09:26.960 --> 01:09:30.880
It is eight oh six. You're
on the case O Day Radio program,

784
01:09:30.920 --> 01:09:34.039
our number three. Glad to have
you along. And I guess that's

785
01:09:34.079 --> 01:09:45.920
it. That's over. Referring to
the Rhonda Santis campaign, CNN has with

786
01:09:45.119 --> 01:09:53.800
quite the takedown yesterday, Ross,
I'm assuming you fell out of your chair

787
01:09:53.840 --> 01:09:57.079
when you saw this groundbreaking report from
CNN because you had to dub it in.

788
01:09:57.319 --> 01:10:02.800
So I mean it was shot.
It were you shook? Were you

789
01:10:02.840 --> 01:10:08.159
shooking? I was shoken? He
was show wow all the way to a

790
01:10:08.279 --> 01:10:13.199
show. All right, So everyone
sit down, ready yourself. CNN they

791
01:10:13.279 --> 01:10:15.319
got him, We got him.
It's that meme. We got him.

792
01:10:15.439 --> 01:10:19.760
Here we go. Also this morning, new details about the close relationship between

793
01:10:19.800 --> 01:10:26.199
Republican presidential candidate Rhnda Santis and Supreme
Court Justice Clarence Thomas. It has to

794
01:10:26.239 --> 01:10:30.079
do with one connection really, Leonard
Leo, a conservative activist who had previously

795
01:10:30.119 --> 01:10:34.520
advised both the Santis and Donald Trump
on judicial nominations. Leo is also friends

796
01:10:34.560 --> 01:10:39.159
with Justice Thomas. So three years
ago, at an event for the Florida

797
01:10:39.199 --> 01:10:44.079
chapter of the Federalist Society, de
Santis said this about Justice Thomas. This

798
01:10:44.159 --> 01:10:46.880
is a justice that has the courage
of his convictions, and he's willing to

799
01:10:46.920 --> 01:10:51.960
apply the constitution, you know,
regardless of any criticism that he may face,

800
01:10:53.319 --> 01:10:58.000
because I do think he is our
greatest living justice. Thank you.

801
01:11:00.880 --> 01:11:04.399
And after that speech to Santist,
Thomas and Leo all went out to dinner.

802
01:11:04.840 --> 01:11:15.680
Oh no, probably it's some horrible
place that discriminates or something or who

803
01:11:15.680 --> 01:11:17.680
the hell knows. All right,
so let me get this straight. So

804
01:11:17.840 --> 01:11:25.560
your takedown of De Santis is he
was in an event three years ago with

805
01:11:25.640 --> 01:11:33.640
Clarence Thomas, after which he went
out to dinner with him. There's got

806
01:11:33.640 --> 01:11:35.600
to be more to this. Oh, I'm sorry, Ross is in.

807
01:11:35.800 --> 01:11:39.560
It's in cut two, right,
the really damning stuff. I'm sorry,

808
01:11:39.960 --> 01:11:44.640
I should there's two cuts here.
I was premature. Let's go to cut

809
01:11:44.640 --> 01:11:49.119
two. I'm sure this is where
the land mine actually lives. Let's do

810
01:11:49.199 --> 01:11:53.079
this. Yeah, morning, Kate. Didn't you like that big bear hug

811
01:11:53.119 --> 01:11:56.079
at the end there? That event
was, you know, part of the

812
01:11:56.159 --> 01:12:00.279
roots of this very tight relationship between
Rond de Santis, Leonard Lee, and

813
01:12:00.359 --> 01:12:02.920
Clarence Thomas all have many things in
common, and they all focus on the

814
01:12:03.000 --> 01:12:08.760
judiciary. And Rohn De Santis now
as a candidate, is taking a page

815
01:12:08.760 --> 01:12:13.239
from the Donald Trump playbook and running
on the Supreme Court. And he's doing

816
01:12:13.279 --> 01:12:17.159
it in part by holding up Clarence
Thomas as a model. Okay, um,

817
01:12:17.600 --> 01:12:25.640
do you think allow me seeing do
you do you somehow feel that voters,

818
01:12:25.960 --> 01:12:30.319
regardless of which side of the aisle
they're on, don't think that Ron

819
01:12:30.399 --> 01:12:40.119
De Santis probably thinks that Clarence Thomas
is good at his job. This is

820
01:12:40.159 --> 01:12:43.960
this is what I don't understand.
This is the inability of folks over at

821
01:12:43.960 --> 01:12:47.479
CNN, MSNBC and others to separate
themselves in the same way that do you

822
01:12:47.479 --> 01:12:54.399
remember all of the RBG right,
Ruth Bader um was who was it was

823
01:12:54.520 --> 01:12:58.079
Stephen Colbears at the gym with her
or something. Do you remember that,

824
01:12:58.680 --> 01:13:00.880
like gaul she works out out.
And then you had all these politicians because

825
01:13:00.920 --> 01:13:04.560
they knew that she wasn't gonna be
around a very long time. You had

826
01:13:04.560 --> 01:13:09.920
all these politicians who wanted to align
themselves with Ginsburg, right, And at

827
01:13:09.960 --> 01:13:14.600
no point did I go, oh, man, I can't believe that this

828
01:13:14.680 --> 01:13:19.680
Democratic politician has a high opinion of
Ruth Bader Ginsburg. You know why,

829
01:13:19.720 --> 01:13:27.319
because that's just it's logical. And
then there was a quote unquote bear hug

830
01:13:27.359 --> 01:13:30.279
which they slowed down to make it
more dramatic by the way, in the

831
01:13:30.399 --> 01:13:40.239
end the clip, man, I
can't imagine why. Yesterday Tucker Carlson got

832
01:13:40.279 --> 01:13:45.520
what twenty five times the viewers of
any CNN primetime show with a ten minute

833
01:13:45.520 --> 01:13:56.119
clip he uploaded to Twitter, which
of course caused caused the more traditional mainstream

834
01:13:56.159 --> 01:14:03.239
media reporters to lose their damn mind. I would point out, it's you

835
01:14:03.239 --> 01:14:05.960
know, it's people in the same
social stratus, right level, are going

836
01:14:06.000 --> 01:14:10.760
to hang out with each other.
Right, he's a high profile governor.

837
01:14:11.680 --> 01:14:13.920
Yeah, you're conservative, judge,
you have a lot in common. Why

838
01:14:13.960 --> 01:14:15.159
wouldn't you. But they're trying to
make it out like, oh my,

839
01:14:15.279 --> 01:14:18.319
can you believe he's hanging out with
Clarence Thomas because they've been trying recently,

840
01:14:18.359 --> 01:14:23.520
like there's been this trend of trying
to make Clarence Thomas like a boogeyman or

841
01:14:23.520 --> 01:14:27.920
a monster, like it's more so
than usual. Yeah, well, you

842
01:14:27.960 --> 01:14:30.000
know, because that's why they started
ramping all these hit pieces out there,

843
01:14:30.000 --> 01:14:34.479
like can you believe that Clarence Thomas
is what wasn't even his kid? Right?

844
01:14:34.520 --> 01:14:39.319
It was some basically a kid that
he took under his wing and was

845
01:14:39.479 --> 01:14:42.720
a godson and then he adopted him
or something or didn't even I don't even

846
01:14:42.760 --> 01:14:45.079
know they really adopted him. And
they're like, and then a rich guy

847
01:14:45.239 --> 01:14:50.720
paid for his schooling and it's Clarence
Thomas's not his kid, but kind of

848
01:14:50.720 --> 01:14:56.039
his kid, and I'm like,
oh, okay, I'm not I'm not

849
01:14:56.079 --> 01:15:00.720
picking up on what's the problem here. So somebody who is not Clarence Thomas's

850
01:15:00.720 --> 01:15:03.960
relative, a person paid for that
individual would go to school, but Clarence

851
01:15:04.000 --> 01:15:09.000
Thomas had an affinity for that individual. And they're like, see, this

852
01:15:09.079 --> 01:15:14.520
is the scandal right here. And
they were rolling all that stuff out because

853
01:15:15.640 --> 01:15:25.600
in the same way that they accused
Republicans of essentially demonizing and attempting to destroy

854
01:15:25.720 --> 01:15:30.920
the fabric of America, right,
they're trying to destroy people's trust in government

855
01:15:30.960 --> 01:15:34.680
or any of the rest. They
took it upon themselves to one percent,

856
01:15:34.800 --> 01:15:40.800
following Row, to try to delegitimize
the Supreme Court. And then that's the

857
01:15:40.880 --> 01:15:44.560
language you see, right, Remember
AOC out there and she's like, just

858
01:15:44.640 --> 01:15:50.800
ignore what they say. Really,
and and many many, many others have

859
01:15:50.920 --> 01:15:57.119
made very similar comments where they're just
like Chuck Schumer was just Chuck Schumer was

860
01:15:57.199 --> 01:16:03.319
just questioning the legitimacy of the Supreme
Court over a decision that was unanimous.

861
01:16:04.560 --> 01:16:10.079
I'm going to repeat that, Chuck
Schumer just lost his crap like last week

862
01:16:10.760 --> 01:16:15.640
over a Supreme Court decision and he
called it, you know, a hijack

863
01:16:15.760 --> 01:16:23.239
Supreme Court, except it was a
unanimous decision. That's as dumb as the

864
01:16:23.319 --> 01:16:30.239
people who blamed jerrymandering for Senate elections. Okay, but yeah, that's the

865
01:16:30.319 --> 01:16:32.039
bombshell, sir. I probably should
have warned you a little more before we

866
01:16:32.079 --> 01:16:36.680
got into it. It's very,
very troubling, all right. I saw

867
01:16:36.720 --> 01:16:42.439
this article yesterday and then I realized
that apparently a bunch of you are weird

868
01:16:44.600 --> 01:16:47.880
how subtitles took over TV. Just
just go with me for a moment,

869
01:16:48.000 --> 01:16:58.239
how subtitles took over TV. So
it's some writer for The Atlantic who apparently

870
01:16:58.479 --> 01:17:03.920
was kind of monitoring how people in
and around him watch TV, and he

871
01:17:03.960 --> 01:17:06.560
just doesn't understand. He says,
it's not just you. The first time

872
01:17:06.600 --> 01:17:11.439
it happened, I assumed it was
a millennial thing. Our younger neighbors had

873
01:17:11.479 --> 01:17:15.560
come over with their kids and a
projector for backyard movie night. I said,

874
01:17:15.600 --> 01:17:19.319
as the opening scene began, hey, you left the subtitles on?

875
01:17:20.279 --> 01:17:24.840
Oh? The husband said, we
always leave the subtitles on. So the

876
01:17:24.880 --> 01:17:29.600
whole crux of this article is this
reporter doesn't understand that a lot of people

877
01:17:29.680 --> 01:17:34.119
watch TV with the subtitles on.
Now, they point out obviously there it's

878
01:17:34.199 --> 01:17:39.920
not weird in cases of where there's
you know, other languages, okay,

879
01:17:40.560 --> 01:17:46.159
or if people have hearing issues.
However, anyone who does not meet those

880
01:17:46.239 --> 01:17:50.600
particular requirements, either you're not watching
a foreign movie and you do not suffer

881
01:17:50.680 --> 01:17:56.279
from a hearing impairment. If you
watch TV or movies with the subtitles on,

882
01:17:56.640 --> 01:18:05.279
you're a freak show. Um,
I turn them on and I hear

883
01:18:05.359 --> 01:18:09.359
fine, dude, I love them
on. Yes, Well, for us,

884
01:18:09.439 --> 01:18:12.079
you know, having a child with
autism, there's a lot of noises

885
01:18:12.399 --> 01:18:15.720
house, right, There's like,
you know, repeat a lot of words,

886
01:18:15.840 --> 01:18:17.840
or there's certain noises he likes to
make, and you know it's just

887
01:18:17.920 --> 01:18:20.560
you know, it's just what he
does. So sometimes it's hard to hear

888
01:18:20.600 --> 01:18:25.520
the TV. But also here's the
thing there recently, the sound design of

889
01:18:25.560 --> 01:18:30.960
some movies are the action will be
super loud, right, and the dialogue

890
01:18:30.000 --> 01:18:33.239
will be like they're whispering. It's
like the mix is wrong and it really

891
01:18:33.279 --> 01:18:35.600
annoys me. It's so bad.
And I don't know when this started,

892
01:18:35.600 --> 01:18:38.239
but it's awful, you know what
I'm saying. Like, if you're watching

893
01:18:38.239 --> 01:18:41.319
a movie, absolutely I can't hear
you. What is it, but then

894
01:18:41.359 --> 01:18:44.359
like an action scene like a car
will crash or something will blow up,

895
01:18:44.479 --> 01:18:45.960
and it'll be like fifty times louder, and you're like, now you gotta

896
01:18:46.000 --> 01:18:49.000
turn it down. So you need
to turn the captions on so you understand

897
01:18:49.000 --> 01:18:53.159
what they're saying, because the sound
design is so bad. Even now the

898
01:18:53.239 --> 01:18:57.119
TV. The TV in my living
room and then the TV in my bedroom,

899
01:18:57.159 --> 01:19:00.399
they both have like it's called sound
sync or something than or whatever.

900
01:19:00.439 --> 01:19:02.520
We're it's supposed to level the sound. It doesn't do it. It's exactly

901
01:19:02.560 --> 01:19:06.800
to your point. So I have
the option of either rumbling my living room

902
01:19:08.199 --> 01:19:13.479
okay every time there is you know, very loud noises, or turning it

903
01:19:13.520 --> 01:19:17.279
down to a level where the guy
down the next block can't hear it.

904
01:19:17.560 --> 01:19:21.840
But turning the subtitles on. I
have no hearing impairments. I hear fine,

905
01:19:23.399 --> 01:19:26.920
however that it's twofold. One is
that and two. A lot of

906
01:19:26.960 --> 01:19:30.399
times I'm doing something else while the
TV or movies on, like I'm doing

907
01:19:30.439 --> 01:19:33.720
prep or whatever, right, so
I've got it going, and sometimes I'll

908
01:19:33.760 --> 01:19:38.239
hear something because I'm not really paying
attention, and if I look up right

909
01:19:38.239 --> 01:19:42.239
away, while I may not understood
what they said the sub but it's about

910
01:19:42.279 --> 01:19:45.760
that time the subtitles showing. So
I want to know who the freak shows

911
01:19:45.760 --> 01:19:49.840
are who aren't turning their subtitles on. I just assume that you did that,

912
01:19:51.159 --> 01:19:57.199
especially in like in your case where
you have a bunch of ambient noise.

913
01:19:57.239 --> 01:20:00.239
I live alone and I still turn
the damn things on for that exact

914
01:20:00.279 --> 01:20:04.119
reason right there. So, but
this guy gets so snobby and he's just

915
01:20:04.479 --> 01:20:11.680
I can't who cares? Who cares
if they turned the subtitle on? And

916
01:20:11.760 --> 01:20:17.119
this damn story had like nine thousand
frigging comments or something with everyone saying they

917
01:20:17.199 --> 01:20:20.800
leave the subtitles on. All right, so do you do you turn them

918
01:20:20.840 --> 01:20:26.479
on? And if you don't,
why are you not watching movies and TV?

919
01:20:26.640 --> 01:20:29.279
Correctly? That would be my question? All right, eight eight eight

920
01:20:29.399 --> 01:20:32.520
nine three four seven eight seven four. We'll start that fight. That's fine.

921
01:20:33.039 --> 01:20:38.800
Absolutely. Also, speaking of movies, we got a Spider Man thing.

922
01:20:39.359 --> 01:20:44.840
Um, I don't know. I
honestly, I haven't even paid attention

923
01:20:44.840 --> 01:20:46.960
to this movie. I understand that
it's very popular. But of course,

924
01:20:47.079 --> 01:20:55.520
now apparently now that it's Pride month
and there's some secret LGBT stuff in there.

925
01:20:55.560 --> 01:20:58.720
According to the Internet and I'll throw
it out for you. Oh and

926
01:20:58.720 --> 01:21:03.079
we got to get them. The
vicious transphobic attack story of Elliott Page in

927
01:21:03.279 --> 01:21:10.600
West Hollywood. All that more coming
up here on the CaCO Day Radio program,

928
01:21:10.720 --> 01:21:15.840
Keeping you Connected. This is ninety
four five WPTI in the Triad and

929
01:21:15.000 --> 01:21:23.000
one oh six one FM Talk in
the Triangle. All right, it's a

930
01:21:23.239 --> 01:21:30.920
twenty three good morning here on the
Cacoday Radio program, Actor Elliott Page has

931
01:21:30.960 --> 01:21:43.800
shared a very personal story about that
time they were in West Hollywood standing on

932
01:21:43.840 --> 01:21:48.159
a corner there, headed over to
a convenience store having left a nearby theater,

933
01:21:49.119 --> 01:22:00.359
when Page says a transphobic, crazed
man approached and started screaming. It

934
01:22:00.439 --> 01:22:06.079
caused Page to say, um,
that right there was the reason, quote

935
01:22:06.079 --> 01:22:13.880
I need a gun. What happened? Apparently the man approached in West Hollywood,

936
01:22:14.319 --> 01:22:19.199
I e Maga Country and yelled quote, I'm going to effing gay bash

937
01:22:19.319 --> 01:22:29.359
you, you British word for cigarette, which caused the actor to bolt towards

938
01:22:29.399 --> 01:22:40.520
the store in fear. There's didn't
report it or anything, I guess.

939
01:22:42.079 --> 01:22:48.479
All right, So now the loop
inside the Loop in Chicago and West Hollywood

940
01:22:49.119 --> 01:22:58.439
Mega Country just so as you know, obviously very very dangerous. But luckily,

941
01:22:58.840 --> 01:23:01.800
luckily Page was able to share this
story, and it just so happens

942
01:23:01.840 --> 01:23:06.199
to be right around the time that
Page's new book is out. Yes,

943
01:23:06.319 --> 01:23:15.880
that's right, part of the new
book called Page Boy. Um I saw

944
01:23:15.199 --> 01:23:21.800
a rundown. Basically, it's Page
talking about all of the Hollywood starlets back

945
01:23:21.840 --> 01:23:30.640
when Page was still Ellen Page that
m Page hooked up with like Juno Cole's

946
01:23:30.199 --> 01:23:35.640
co star and a few others.
So but also this, um, this

947
01:23:35.680 --> 01:23:45.439
whole thing where the guy, the
transphobe wanted to uh to do things horrible

948
01:23:45.479 --> 01:23:49.319
things, i e. Gay bashing, and Page was able to escape.

949
01:23:50.439 --> 01:23:56.439
So just look for it in the
new book Page Boy. What a coincidence

950
01:23:59.119 --> 01:24:02.960
West Hollywood. I'm telling you,
if you've ever been to West Hollywood,

951
01:24:03.039 --> 01:24:11.560
it makes the story that much more
shocking. Because I have some questions,

952
01:24:11.680 --> 01:24:14.239
but you know, it was a
while ago, so we'll probably never get

953
01:24:14.279 --> 01:24:19.279
answers. All right, check this
out speak speaking of stories, I got

954
01:24:19.359 --> 01:24:25.920
questions about. A British woman is
standing trial for allegedly tricking a female teen

955
01:24:26.640 --> 01:24:35.000
into having a romantic relationship by posing
as a man and then stealing the woman's

956
01:24:35.039 --> 01:24:40.279
glasses when they hooked up, which
I don't know why you need glasses.

957
01:24:40.319 --> 01:24:44.399
I mean, he can feel stuff, you know what I'm saying. Yes,

958
01:24:44.520 --> 01:24:46.359
a twenty one year old is accused
of duping a nineteen year old,

959
01:24:46.359 --> 01:24:51.680
So this isn't some weird underage thing. Georgia Billham accused of duping the nineteen

960
01:24:51.760 --> 01:24:57.520
year old woman by creating fake social
media accounts using the alias George Perry.

961
01:24:58.640 --> 01:25:02.760
And then eventually the couple met,
and eventually they became romantically involved. And

962
01:25:02.960 --> 01:25:10.319
uh, this woman stole the other
woman's glasses, so I guess they could

963
01:25:10.399 --> 01:25:12.720
keep up the ruse. It's a
woman, by the way, Ross does

964
01:25:12.760 --> 01:25:15.319
that look like a man at all
when you're putting it when you're pulling the

965
01:25:15.399 --> 01:25:19.640
article together, Like, did you
did you look at the picture? That's

966
01:25:19.680 --> 01:25:24.880
the the woman in the article is
the woman who purportedly was trying to pass

967
01:25:24.920 --> 01:25:29.720
as a man and then stole the
other person's glasses. I don't get it,

968
01:25:29.720 --> 01:25:31.279
And especially when you look at the
picture from back when it happened.

969
01:25:34.039 --> 01:25:36.680
Whole thing's weird. But the fact
that it's going to trial, man,

970
01:25:36.760 --> 01:25:42.960
I don't know who says I'm going
to gabe ash you I know, I

971
01:25:43.079 --> 01:25:50.359
know This is why I have questions. Somebody just emailed it. It sounds

972
01:25:50.399 --> 01:25:55.399
what is it? The kids say, sounds a little suss. But it's

973
01:25:55.399 --> 01:25:57.800
in the new book, so make
sure you read that, all right.

974
01:25:57.840 --> 01:26:01.479
We got to talk real quickly about
the pgator. Dude, there's some PJ

975
01:26:01.640 --> 01:26:08.520
golfers who are beyond mad and with
good reason. And I don't even know

976
01:26:08.560 --> 01:26:12.840
if it's one hundred percent why they
say that they're mad, because there's um

977
01:26:13.079 --> 01:26:15.960
there's a very significant component of this
that I didn't see getting a lot of

978
01:26:16.000 --> 01:26:19.600
discussion. But for those of you
don't know, the PGA tour is going

979
01:26:19.640 --> 01:26:28.520
to merge with that Saudi offshoot tour, the the Live Live lav Tour,

980
01:26:29.640 --> 01:26:33.319
which coaxed away a bunch of big
time stars for giant piles of money.

981
01:26:34.760 --> 01:26:40.600
And the commissioner of the PGA looks
like a jackass. So we'll get the

982
01:26:40.600 --> 01:26:44.359
details coming up right after the news
here on the k c O Day radio

983
01:26:44.439 --> 01:26:56.920
program show. After the show is
on the iHeartRadio app. Search case O

984
01:26:57.039 --> 01:27:02.880
Day for the podcast on the iHeart
radio app. Holy caw, look at

985
01:27:02.920 --> 01:27:18.039
this busy, busy busy man.
Ross's truck trap has um gotten three hits

986
01:27:18.159 --> 01:27:26.079
today for actually yesterday. So yeah, anytime there is an accident and it's

987
01:27:26.079 --> 01:27:29.920
a truck halling stuff, we see
if we want it. And it just

988
01:27:30.000 --> 01:27:32.119
so happened like one day there was
like chicken wings and stuff. So now

989
01:27:32.199 --> 01:27:35.760
I'm convinced ross is causing this.
Luckily, in all three cases it doesn't

990
01:27:35.800 --> 01:27:40.079
seem to be any injuries. So
all right, what do you want to

991
01:27:40.119 --> 01:27:43.199
hear? You want to hear about
the solo one that you're getting first,

992
01:27:43.359 --> 01:27:46.119
or the one truck that hit the
other truck and both overturned the truck that

993
01:27:46.199 --> 01:27:50.840
hit the other truck. All right, so this authorities say what was this

994
01:27:54.159 --> 01:28:00.199
road? Road? Was this on? Do do do do? I doesn't

995
01:28:00.239 --> 01:28:05.720
say, uh, Interstate seventy okay, all right, Um, A truck

996
01:28:05.880 --> 01:28:14.520
hauling cows, so beef, you
got beef there apparently got into an accident

997
01:28:14.640 --> 01:28:20.079
and overturned as it struck another truck
hauling pallets of bud ice. So it's

998
01:28:20.079 --> 01:28:25.760
a twofer get steak and bud ice, which is still But I didn't realize

999
01:28:25.760 --> 01:28:28.199
bud ice was still a thing.
I mean, I like the steak.

1000
01:28:29.399 --> 01:28:31.680
I mean that's a definite wind.
All right, all right, good with

1001
01:28:31.840 --> 01:28:39.079
that. I just didn't know bud
ice was around anymore, So there you

1002
01:28:39.119 --> 01:28:41.239
go. Although it doesn't. It
was gonna say you can resell it,

1003
01:28:41.359 --> 01:28:44.800
but uh, you know, you
see what they're selling bud products for right

1004
01:28:44.840 --> 01:28:51.239
now. So I really you're gonna
go drop that off at the homeless shelf.

1005
01:28:51.359 --> 01:28:56.399
Yeah, we'll enjoy it. That's
how nice of you. And in

1006
01:28:56.520 --> 01:29:03.920
a separate crash um, a truck
overturned spilling its entire contents of twenty two

1007
01:29:04.119 --> 01:29:10.920
tons of industrial glue. Ah,
how would you like to have to clean

1008
01:29:11.039 --> 01:29:16.680
that up? Yeah, authorities say
a truck hauling twenty two thousand what is

1009
01:29:16.720 --> 01:29:20.840
the glue for carpet glues? Twenty
two tons of carpet glue? Oh?

1010
01:29:20.960 --> 01:29:27.439
Man, look, this picture is
all over the road. That's gonna suck.

1011
01:29:27.560 --> 01:29:32.640
I don't even know how you get
that off there. Get a bunch

1012
01:29:32.680 --> 01:29:38.800
of the you know the orange shop, you know, the shop hand washed

1013
01:29:38.840 --> 01:29:43.640
with the pummice in a spread that
all over the road. Maybe, I

1014
01:29:43.720 --> 01:29:50.479
don't know. Oh there's a and
then there's some idiot driving through it.

1015
01:29:50.640 --> 01:29:55.119
Oh that's gonna go well for you, sir. Yeah, you're never getting

1016
01:29:55.159 --> 01:29:59.920
that off your car, all right? So a three for the glues probably

1017
01:30:00.199 --> 01:30:03.760
cash, but at least it got
stakes out of the deal craziness. Minor

1018
01:30:03.840 --> 01:30:11.119
injuries reported in both cases, but
everyone's fine. Other than that, it

1019
01:30:11.199 --> 01:30:14.279
looks like the cows are all alive, So good news there. They're gonna

1020
01:30:14.279 --> 01:30:16.199
stay fresh. All right. Let
me hit on this story real quick.

1021
01:30:17.000 --> 01:30:21.920
So the PGA yesterday announced something that
less than a year ago they swore would

1022
01:30:23.000 --> 01:30:29.560
never happen. And in fact,
the PGA, as famous golfers including Phil

1023
01:30:29.640 --> 01:30:36.000
Mickelson and many other big names,
said yes to the Upstart Live Golf tournament,

1024
01:30:36.199 --> 01:30:42.680
which is owned and funded the majority, but at least in part,

1025
01:30:42.840 --> 01:30:47.600
by the Saudi royal family. Technically, there's a fund that they use for

1026
01:30:47.720 --> 01:30:54.600
stuff to It's like when they were
talking about maybe buying the WWE. It's

1027
01:30:54.640 --> 01:30:59.239
an investment fund. However, obviously
the seeds of which lie with the Saudi

1028
01:30:59.319 --> 01:31:03.279
royal family. And so they did
this, and they paid crap tons of

1029
01:31:03.319 --> 01:31:06.000
money and they made big offers.
I think they offered tiger Woods, like

1030
01:31:06.159 --> 01:31:11.319
eight hundred million dollars or something because
they got stupid money to throw around,

1031
01:31:11.479 --> 01:31:15.760
and golfers went and it was the
big you know, it was a big

1032
01:31:15.880 --> 01:31:19.359
scandal, and everyone's like, these
golfers were monsters. How dare they played

1033
01:31:19.479 --> 01:31:25.840
golf and receive a check at least
in part from the people who murdered Kashagi

1034
01:31:26.159 --> 01:31:30.880
or in you had a nine to
eleven families group that came out, you

1035
01:31:30.960 --> 01:31:32.920
know, since the majority of the
people involved in nine to eleven were actually

1036
01:31:32.920 --> 01:31:36.640
Saudi citizens, and they had a
problem with it, and folks from the

1037
01:31:36.720 --> 01:31:43.000
PGA, who obviously they were trying
to protect their own product, you know,

1038
01:31:43.079 --> 01:31:45.439
And it really started with a lot
of beef on the part of the

1039
01:31:45.520 --> 01:31:47.760
golfers on the tour saying that they
weren't getting a fair shake. So it

1040
01:31:48.000 --> 01:31:56.239
was ripe for plucking people, they
claimed, you know. Essentially they got

1041
01:31:56.279 --> 01:32:01.159
on the nine to eleven bandwagon.
Absolutely yeah, PGA chairman he was on

1042
01:32:01.279 --> 01:32:06.039
there. How dare these folks,
how dare they do this? These people

1043
01:32:06.079 --> 01:32:10.439
are not allowed to They're not gonna
be We're gonna take their PGA tour cards,

1044
01:32:10.520 --> 01:32:13.880
they can't play, they're dead to
us. Whatever. And as a

1045
01:32:14.000 --> 01:32:16.039
result, there was a lot of
pressure on what golfers decided to do,

1046
01:32:16.680 --> 01:32:20.520
and you know, others joined and
went over to this tour which hasn't had

1047
01:32:20.600 --> 01:32:28.000
the most rating success, but the
PGA has actually been quite vocal to their

1048
01:32:28.039 --> 01:32:33.319
current television and partners saying you better
not do business with them. So arguably

1049
01:32:33.399 --> 01:32:38.079
that that and that caused lawsuits,
and there's tons There was tons of lawsuits

1050
01:32:38.159 --> 01:32:45.840
up till yesterday for a variety of
things, basically because that really sounds like

1051
01:32:45.279 --> 01:32:53.079
um illegal business practices. But I
digress. And players were shamed into not

1052
01:32:53.359 --> 01:32:57.880
taking those big paychecks and stay with
the PGA, and so all those decisions

1053
01:32:57.920 --> 01:33:03.279
were made until yesterday when out of
the blue, the PGA announced that they

1054
01:33:03.399 --> 01:33:10.279
were joining forces with the upstart Golf
Tour and that all the players who went

1055
01:33:10.760 --> 01:33:14.760
will have the opportunity, obviously to
get their PGA card back, and if

1056
01:33:14.840 --> 01:33:17.760
they're still top ranked players, they'll
be able to do that. Well,

1057
01:33:18.439 --> 01:33:23.439
as you can imagine, that irritated
everybody. When Jay Monahan, who had

1058
01:33:23.479 --> 01:33:28.439
been out there screaming bloody murder about
this and calling everyone traders, was happy

1059
01:33:28.479 --> 01:33:33.560
to sign on the dotted line and
even let the Live Golf guy technically have

1060
01:33:33.920 --> 01:33:41.680
the top spot on the board for
it. Oh, it's bonkers, And

1061
01:33:42.119 --> 01:33:44.760
you know everyone's talking about this because
they didn't tell any of the players.

1062
01:33:45.119 --> 01:33:48.079
Here's the problem. Every one of
those players who went to the you know,

1063
01:33:48.199 --> 01:33:56.119
the golf tournament, now the upstart
one. They got these big paychecks,

1064
01:33:57.119 --> 01:34:00.439
they're still owed moneies. It doesn't
matter that they're gonna so they stand

1065
01:34:00.520 --> 01:34:06.960
to make a crap ton more money
than their counterparts who didn't who decided you

1066
01:34:08.000 --> 01:34:10.199
know what, I don't I don't
want to do this, I you know

1067
01:34:10.399 --> 01:34:13.800
the I don't like the idea of
playing for the saudiast or I want to

1068
01:34:13.880 --> 01:34:15.680
remain loyal to the PGA Tour.
I don't think it's gonna be well.

1069
01:34:16.039 --> 01:34:20.000
They all missed the boat because they
were told that if they left and they

1070
01:34:20.039 --> 01:34:27.399
took those paychecks, they'd never play
in the PGA again, with the exception

1071
01:34:27.560 --> 01:34:30.279
of some of the some of the
majors, and just a couple other things.

1072
01:34:32.119 --> 01:34:39.960
So how how mad must they be
if you're if you're a reasonably recognizable

1073
01:34:40.039 --> 01:34:45.039
golfer and maybe you're pulling down,
you know, three to five million a

1074
01:34:45.119 --> 01:34:48.199
year because you know, you win
a tournament and you do well in some

1075
01:34:48.359 --> 01:34:54.199
others, and you turned down I
don't know, fifty eighty million dollars guaranteed

1076
01:34:55.840 --> 01:34:59.000
a year. A year later,
only to find yourself, you would have

1077
01:34:59.000 --> 01:35:02.039
found yourself back in the same situation
how poed must you be right now?

1078
01:35:02.720 --> 01:35:08.159
So I don't know what's going to
happen here. Obviously everybody's mad. Norman

1079
01:35:08.279 --> 01:35:12.319
was ripping the PGA. Greg Norman, Tiger Woods and McElroy, who spoke

1080
01:35:12.399 --> 01:35:15.359
out against the circuit, would have
had, you know, because they were

1081
01:35:15.439 --> 01:35:17.880
offered. I think the biggest piles
of money. Offering Woods eight hundred million

1082
01:35:17.920 --> 01:35:21.199
dollars is bonkers. I mean East
Tiger Woods, and I love watching them

1083
01:35:21.199 --> 01:35:24.880
when he's on play golf, But
I don't know how you thought you'd get

1084
01:35:24.880 --> 01:35:30.720
eight hundred million out of them.
But that's it. Now they're back,

1085
01:35:30.079 --> 01:35:33.880
they're gonna rejoin and everybody it'll be
like nothing ever happened except a bunch of

1086
01:35:33.960 --> 01:35:39.279
players who took that chance. They're
gonna get a big pile of money for

1087
01:35:40.199 --> 01:35:44.720
putting up with it for a year. And anyone who didn't it's stuck loyal.

1088
01:35:45.039 --> 01:35:48.640
They were just betrayed by their leadership. Absolutely crazy. All right,

1089
01:35:48.720 --> 01:35:53.399
eight forty five, let's get race
stag It from the Weather Channel to give

1090
01:35:53.439 --> 01:35:58.399
you your smoke and weather report.
Well took a look at radar and a

1091
01:35:58.520 --> 01:36:01.800
shower start to come in Rockymcasswell Counties
a little ahead of schedules, so some

1092
01:36:01.920 --> 01:36:06.800
of this rain a little aggressive here
this morning. So showers now starting to

1093
01:36:06.840 --> 01:36:12.199
get in through parts north of Greensboro, north of Raleigh, Durham and getting

1094
01:36:12.239 --> 01:36:15.359
up and starting to come in and
move slowly to the south. So showers

1095
01:36:15.399 --> 01:36:18.000
developing here as we continue to head
through this morning and into the afternoon.

1096
01:36:18.039 --> 01:36:21.239
We've got an air quality alert.
We've got smoke in the air from wildfires.

1097
01:36:21.279 --> 01:36:25.640
Maybe the rain will help clean it
out a little bit. Temperatures mid

1098
01:36:25.720 --> 01:36:28.720
upper seventies today. There might even
be a rumble of thunder mixed in here,

1099
01:36:29.000 --> 01:36:31.199
and we'll have some showers of afternoon
through tonight, tapering although pretty early,

1100
01:36:31.239 --> 01:36:35.560
mid upper fifties as this front goes
south, leaving us with what more

1101
01:36:35.640 --> 01:36:39.560
sunshine for Thursday and Friday, and
not quite sure we'll get the haze of

1102
01:36:39.600 --> 01:36:43.960
the smoke back in the atmosphere,
but we'll drop the humidity on either side

1103
01:36:44.000 --> 01:36:46.560
of eighty degrees for daytime highs both
days. Beautiful days with lows in the

1104
01:36:46.640 --> 01:36:50.960
low fifties, maybe some upper forties
by Friday morning. Weekend looks warmer with

1105
01:36:51.039 --> 01:36:56.239
plenty of sunshine, So casey rain's
breaking out a little bit earlier than anticipated

1106
01:36:56.560 --> 01:37:00.159
starting to see some of those showers
now in a line basically from let's say

1107
01:37:00.920 --> 01:37:06.920
just getting into Alamanson, Orange Counties
and coming south southeast slowly, so if

1108
01:37:06.920 --> 01:37:11.039
you're getting rain, it looks like
we are going to see more. Continue

1109
01:37:11.079 --> 01:37:14.159
to push south over the next few
hours, so a little ahead of schedule.

1110
01:37:14.199 --> 01:37:16.439
But hey, sometimes that happens.
Okay, Hey, you know,

1111
01:37:16.520 --> 01:37:19.279
if it does anything to knock the
smoke down, we'll appreciate it. Yeah,

1112
01:37:19.279 --> 01:37:24.600
I hope. So right, we'll
see thank you, have a good

1113
01:37:24.640 --> 01:37:35.399
and we'll come back. Chat with
Jeff Bellinger next, hang on, thank

1114
01:37:35.479 --> 01:37:41.920
you. Casey is on w PTI
in the Triad and one on six one

1115
01:37:42.000 --> 01:37:45.520
FM Talk in the Triangle. Eight
fifty four your Bloomberg comp date now,

1116
01:37:45.600 --> 01:37:51.239
Jeff Bellinger, what's happening morning,
Casey. Stock Market futures are obviously hired

1117
01:37:51.319 --> 01:37:55.359
now futures or up eight points,
so it looks like we could have a

1118
01:37:55.680 --> 01:38:00.800
positive start, although no great rally. Home loan demand and still weakening.

1119
01:38:00.880 --> 01:38:05.359
Mortgage bankers report applications for new mortgages
and refi requests have declined for a fourth

1120
01:38:05.520 --> 01:38:11.840
straight week. More banks are relying
on AI powered chat bots to deliver customer

1121
01:38:11.920 --> 01:38:16.760
service but the Consumer Financial Protection Board
says that's a risky way to reduce headcount.

1122
01:38:16.840 --> 01:38:21.479
The agency says chat bots not only
alienate some customers, they can also

1123
01:38:21.600 --> 01:38:27.479
give wrong answers, and a reversal
of farmers groups remote work policy has led

1124
01:38:27.560 --> 01:38:31.079
to a staff revolt. Casey,
the insurance company told employees last year that

1125
01:38:31.239 --> 01:38:34.560
most of them would be remote workers, so a lot of workers moved,

1126
01:38:34.640 --> 01:38:39.359
sold their second cars, or expanded
their home offices. Now, the Wall

1127
01:38:39.439 --> 01:38:43.920
Street Journal says an internal memo has
gone out telling employees they'll have to be

1128
01:38:44.000 --> 01:38:46.800
in the office three days a week. Casey, All right, Jeff,

1129
01:38:46.840 --> 01:38:49.000
thank you, appreciate it. So, okay, have a good day.

1130
01:38:49.239 --> 01:38:55.760
Yeah you too. This is crazy
this story. Apparently there is an epidemic

1131
01:38:55.840 --> 01:39:01.479
in Maine. According to official is
in Maine, they're warning the public after

1132
01:39:01.800 --> 01:39:09.800
no less than five different fires,
two vehicles, and three homes have struck

1133
01:39:09.920 --> 01:39:15.279
this year after squirrels electrocuted themselves,
burst into flames, and then from there

1134
01:39:15.920 --> 01:39:21.039
often running oh wait, hold on, we're gonna do this story do do

1135
01:39:21.159 --> 01:39:25.079
do do do? Forgot we have
a day. We have a song for

1136
01:39:25.159 --> 01:39:30.199
this all right, hold on,
um purp, you turn the butt bar

1137
01:39:30.359 --> 01:39:41.119
up. There the squirrel to the
test. They too through them. You

1138
01:39:41.279 --> 01:39:47.640
guess the rest electrocution man, they
fry and watch again. Next to swaming

1139
01:39:47.720 --> 01:39:53.800
squirrels in the sky. They who
watch for flaming squirrels in the sky and

1140
01:39:53.920 --> 01:40:00.680
the sky fire, they die.
Whole bunch of best. I think that

1141
01:40:00.840 --> 01:40:09.279
a Finish swam is the best.
The Finnish squirm is the best. The

1142
01:40:09.520 --> 01:40:14.960
Finnish squam is the best. Quote
Keeled Kemper, biologists with the main Department

1143
01:40:15.000 --> 01:40:17.119
of Fisheries and Wildlife, says,
quote, there is no critter more out

1144
01:40:17.159 --> 01:40:21.920
to burn your house down than a
squirrel. I think cats probably, they're

1145
01:40:21.920 --> 01:40:26.319
always plot and evil. But yeah, in this case, three different homes

1146
01:40:26.359 --> 01:40:32.000
in Maine and two vehicles have fallen
victim two squirrels who have chewed through either

1147
01:40:32.119 --> 01:40:35.279
power wires or, in the case
of one of the vehicles, the actual

1148
01:40:35.399 --> 01:40:44.079
electrical under the hood. Ah,
they're saying. One of the ways the

1149
01:40:44.119 --> 01:40:46.239
best way is to avoid it is
obviously to make your home squirrel proof,

1150
01:40:46.399 --> 01:40:51.039
but also avoid leaving any food out, and that includes feeding birds, So

1151
01:40:51.199 --> 01:40:56.520
don't do that and check this out. Speaking of epidemics, a man has

1152
01:40:56.560 --> 01:41:01.119
been arrested after a series of burglaries
where the only thing stolen were the victims

1153
01:41:01.279 --> 01:41:09.000
adult toys. Benjamin nad Rowski reportedly
broke into at least four home He probably

1154
01:41:09.039 --> 01:41:11.840
broke into more. I bet there's
people who got their stuff stolen who didn't

1155
01:41:11.840 --> 01:41:14.199
call, right. You know,
they don't want to call the police and

1156
01:41:14.319 --> 01:41:18.960
be like, yeah, my giant
you know insert fallis looking thing was stolen,

1157
01:41:19.119 --> 01:41:26.239
right, But four people did.
Eventually he was arrested after attempting another

1158
01:41:26.319 --> 01:41:30.600
one and some homee nearby homeowners saw
him. Police showed up, arrested him,

1159
01:41:30.600 --> 01:41:31.800
and he told them he wasn't stealing
anything. He was there to buy

1160
01:41:31.880 --> 01:41:35.680
weed, which is a horrible alibi, except they were unable to recover the

1161
01:41:36.199 --> 01:41:42.600
stolen adult toys initially because they say
he was giving them away his birthday presence.

1162
01:41:45.920 --> 01:41:54.119
Who who is giving people for their
birthday a used adult toy? Are

1163
01:41:54.199 --> 01:41:59.520
you taking that of? It's your
birthday? Ross, I got you something

1164
01:41:59.560 --> 01:42:04.359
by the way, late birthday.
Uh, I don't wrap that. You're

1165
01:42:04.399 --> 01:42:09.560
gonna love it. You're gonna love
it. So anyway, So yeah,

1166
01:42:09.600 --> 01:42:13.520
he's under arrest. Craziness all right, we gotta roll see tomorrow
