thank you, thank you appreciate it. We are taking this on Leap Day.
Yes, you know, if we didn't have Leap Day, you would
literally have Christmas in July because the Earth excuse me, yeah, the Earth,
that would be the planet that we're on. This Earth, it's Earth.
Right, is that one that discover week on Earth? The Earth?
What was to go around the Sun? Three hundred and sixty five days,
five minutes, five hours, and twenty eight minutes. So every four years
that's a day. Oh okay, so every one hundred years we would be
way off. Yeah right, so every century, so every I think it
would take like six hundred years. You would have Christmas in July literally in
the northern hemisphere, and it would take like another eight hundred and fifty years
to get it back to December. So they explained how it all works.
Oh, Gregorians got it right? Yeah, with the calendar. How is
that possible? How is that possible that they got it right? People?
Yeah? I know, but I mean it's like, yeah, he think
has got it right. They had a pyramid that was Yeah, they did,
but there's no more incas, so I don't know. Maybe they that's
the one thing they got right. I don't know. I'm just saying to
you that, like, did we Okay, so are we smarter today or
dumber today? Than a great question. I think we have more knowledge.
I don't know if we're smarter. Does that make sense? Yes? Of
course I think that everything I think everything in life that people had to figure
out the sun and the moment this and then that, and we just kind
of go, yeah, there, the mood's made of cheese. I don't
know, all right, Yeah, I think everything in life has a price,
And I think like the price of having knowledge at your fingertips is that
we get stupider, we get dumber. So instead of memorizing things or knowing
things, I can look it up, like things that like twenty years ago
or thirty years ago, I should say, we didn't we needed to know
it just wouldn't look up. Yeah, you know what I'm saying, Like
they should tell us you're not gonna have a calculator when you get older,
look right, right right, But like you got kids who can't even like
they don't even know, like this is this is a true story. College
God, here we go, college kids. Okay, one from when I
was in college. All right, what what what did you see? What
did you not know? Oh? I knew? Well I had to drive.
I went. I went to my professor, doctor Mary lo Picaro.
Uh huh was she there when you were there? I don't know? And
I said, hey, I have to leave class early after drive home to
vote. It was the Bush Gore election. Okay. And she goes,
okay, and somebody goes, you could just go vote in the school gym.
I go, no, my residence is still back home. I go,
is your home residence here? Yeah? She goes, well, no,
I live in Syracuse. I go, yeah, that if you want
to vote today, go out of the gym. Let's see what they say.
Okay, So that's you know what I'm saying. I yeah, I
don't know whether to forgive somebody for that or not. At a young age.
Well, because we've been allowed so many liberty in life to have the
luxury of not considering those things, well, uh yes, I think about
our parents, like had to drive stick shift, they had to like know
how to like you know, pay mortgages and taxes and do all these crazy
things that were like, hey, I'm twenty eight eight, dad, how
does this work? Yeah? Well okay, But so I I don't.
But again, I don't know if that's ignorant. I would call it ignorant,
which then I guess you could say is kind of dumb. But I
don't know that. It doesn't mean you're not smart. If them, No,
I don't think I don't think that's the case. I think that we
were allowed to be more ignorant. Well, I don't. Yeah, but
we didn't teach I don't know if we if it was civics, we didn't.
You remember, they used to call it civics. We didn't have to
really have civics for me either. But but I didn't know that our parents
generation. Yeah, you're right, but I didn't know that. They didn't
have regents math. They taught you business math. I like math, you
could use not math that like. Okay, we're gonna learn trig today.
At the end of the month. I will have towards the end of there
will be a podcast that will air that I taped earlier today with a gentleman
from the Ukraine, Okay, who went back there. He is of Jewish
descendant, was originally working on a documentary about the Holocaust and a certain part
of Ukraine that was very involved in the Soviets, and his parents were Soviet
Jews. His dad, as a Jewish Man, rose to a captain in
the Soviet Army. It's a really interesting conversation. But the fact that the
shit we don't know about the world is amazing, because you know, when
the USSR broke up. We you forget that. You know, Ukrainians were
proud. Think of America. You're proud, right, Yeah, a lot
of people are very proud Americans. We're proud of our country, especially if
you've been here for generations in your family and you know, you built something
here and you have kind of roots and all that. Well, that's what
people have around the world. And some other comes in and annexes it and
takes it over and says this is ours. And then all of a sudden
that falls apart, the iron curtain comes crashing down, and now you've got
somebody coming back and going, oh no, I'm taking it back. I'm
taking it back, and I want to take back all the way to Madrid
and uh. You know, so there's there's there's some great, great concern
there. But it's just amazing to me because I don't think, like a
lot of times, you know, people don't understand why the Eastern Block of
Europe with Yugoslavia didn't work. Well, you had you had Slavics and you
had other people, and you said you're a country, yes, and they
went, well, we hate each other. Yeah, you know what I'm
saying or we don't get along. Hey, what about us? What about
us? We want our own little space here, and it becomes territorial.
I mean, I don't know, but it's amazing as you're pointing this out,
how much we don't know and how much we do take for granted.
You're right because we've had the luxury and the ability to do that. So
thank a grandparent, thank a veteran that we have these freedoms. Yeah,
yeah, serious, Yeah, the freedom of the freedom of ignorance. Think
about that. Yeah, we have the freedom of ignorance. Well, bally
do we not know? We don't have to know. No, we don't
have to know. And anything you really want to know, you can look
up. If you're quick on your feet, you can make it seem like
you know everything. Oh I try every day. My wife usually catches me,
though she's quicker than I am. No, but I'm saying like,
if you read and you can make it sound like you know, you look
up enough information, and you got to make sure it's good information, because
well, there's things nowadays on the worldwide internets that you can't really tell what's
real or not. For example, I'll play this for you. Baltimore City
police have charged demand. Thirty one year old Dwayne Townsend is charged with indecent
exposure and disorderly conduct on several occasions dating back to November twenty eighteen. Hey,
you see, that's what the problem mean is. Now, it's a
beautiful day. I want to come outside with my shirt off, and I
would job get trying to get my body back in cheap, and all of
a sudden, I get like, I'm mad, I don't know where about
a cop and uh, you know it's scared to hit out of me.
I was so scared, y'all. I dodnet own myself and I'm talking about
I was wet. I would wet it in a well and a bubble bath,
drinking a bottle of water. Okay, And to myself, I said,
in decent exposure, Hold up, wait a minute, something right?
What you want me to do? I'm a man. You want me to
put on a brawl man? That bra strap or snapped like a budget cord.
Just go. And you know, I just came out of court and
they just gave me two court dates go for each titty. So if you're
watching this, they asked the news banner, down you it looks just like
the guy in the mugshot. Yeah you I want to let him to say
the radio television can't say the word titty yeah, each titty yeah. And
then that lady's laugh. Back at the newsroom, there's a woman laughing,
and you go, is this I had to go it is this real?
I go, there's no way this is real. It isn't him up.
This is the guy better than any Christmas present you ever see. Have you
seen that video a comedian going viral? And turns out he's from Lafayette.
That video was a parody about a recent national news story, And turns out
it's also not this comedian's first time getting some national attention. Three's on the
Street Tonight, Victor George's has the story all new tonight at ten. If
you've been online the past couple of days, you've probably come across this video.
Last time I checked, it had two point four million views on YouTube.
It's creator, James Bates, tells me, although his videos are now
down to a formula, he's still overwhelmed with the reaction. It's the real
because I don't really know what to do with all of the attention, So
he just takes news clips and then puts himself in there with their news Like
this time around is based on a news story about a passenger taped to the
seat after attacking a flight attendant on a flight to Miami. Although that did
happen, his video is just for fun. He plays the flight attendant that
allegedly taped him enter the seats. A lot of his content is parodies of
interviews you might reel in local news channels. Just like KATC in the interviews,
I just always make some type of sound. I didn't know they're that
good. Let's try. That's the tape that he would do, And I
did the wrap them up on the tape the and now about to hit the
two hundred thousand subscribers mark on YouTube anyway. So, I mean, the
thing is like, when you first see that, you go, Okay,
this gotta be a joke, except that everything's matching. The thing that stood
out for me was he's not standing outside of a courtroom. He's in a
parking lot of like a strip mall Right, Now, is it possible that
let's that's where news people get a lot of their interviews, right, But
is it possible that that's where the court was? Like He's like, he's
coming, I guess. So I'm looking at it, going, yeah,
it's something right here. So I had to do a little bore digging.
But just think you're moving through. You could go like, if I told
you that was a real news story, would you have believed it? Yeah,
yeah, I could believe it. And especially if you see it we're
hearing the audio, it sounds a little different when when I'm hearing it,
I didn't go along. I mean, like news clips don't go like enough.
People talking don't go that long, you know, because usually the reporter
has to interrupt. But that wasn't all and he continues on one neighbor said,
and then the neighbor talks. But it's usually like a five second bike
that thirty seconds. All the social media stuff and we see so many things,
and that's where I always worry sometimes now with the amount of information that
we get that I'm not saying that the information that you're getting is necessarily wrong,
but I think that you gotta look. You got to look a little
deeper on some things. On some things, I think if we you know
what I mean, some things, Yeah, I think you gotta go a
little bit deeper, especially the stuff that you go, wait a second,
if it sounds too weird, if you got something in the back of your
head going, well that what But hey, god, you were defending one.
And I wasn't even gonna bring this up, but I'm just thinking of
it now. The kitty litter box things sounded so absurd to me. And
here's why I heard that in church you could have and then I went looked
it up and oh, yeah, this happens. Yes, but it didn't.
And it was because there's no way in a public school that could let
somebody shit in a litter box and leave it there. They couldn't do that.
That's why I'm going that made no sense. But my thing is like,
and I get it, it fuels a whole narrative of people that don't
like things that are happening, you know what I mean. But that that's
all I'm saying. I don't mean to pick on that story. I'm just
saying that. Well, here's the other thing, is like, I'm changing
my views a little bit on some things with social media. I saw someone
today who I don't know them. I may have met them once somehow I'm
friends with them on social media, but I think I have been for a
number of years. I think they were a fan of I think the break
Room when we did that original. Yes, and the person got divorced and
post a lot of things in response to their ec No. No, nope,
they've just become more vocal. No, they're posting things like I'm out,
you know, I'm feeling good. You know. Basically, I would
say it would be almost like an attention getting thing. It would be one
of these things that would normally hang with my new boom. No, not
even no, No, It's basically like I'm I'm depressed when I'm getting up
and I'm moving okay, you know what I mean, Like I'm having a
hard time, but every day, you know, still try to do my
best. And I would make because it would be selfies, yeah, and
I would and I would be like, oh god, it's another attention seeking
person. And then I stopped today and I thought, well, hang on
a second, maybe this isn't a bad thing. Somebody actually clearly is going
through a hard time. And the one thing that you feel when you go
through a hard time, and anybody who has lost a loved one to suicide
or maybe has attempted at some point or had somebody who has attempted. I
think most of that is I believe that most people I'm basing this on nothing
but gut. I don't ever want to be accused of like, yeah,
you try to tug like a doctor. I just think that most of those
people are looking for an escape, escape from a situation that they're incurrently.
And I don't know that if there was some other means that it would be
as drastic. Does that make sense? Like I see no way out but
this. I can't handle this anymore. It's terrible, it's sad. But
I thought, this is another thing where it's somebody who sad and the one
thing you never want to feel is alone and like there's no way out.
And I read some of the comments and I thought, maybe this isn't so
bad. You know, you can scroll by and not have to because I
look at it and I think my first gut reaction is like, yeah,
here we go, right, here we go. My life's so bad it
sucks. What am I gonna do? And I thought, well, hold
on a second, that's not that's not the case. I mean it is,
but it's not. It's somebody who's getting support from a community of people
knowing they're not alone, and maybe somebody picks up the phone and calls and
says, hey, how are you doing today. I saw that, and
I hope you're okay. I've done that with people. I've done that with
people too, the f off but yeah, I've done that with people and
they're like, I appreciate you. Check it out. Wait wait wait wait,
someone someone you called to check up told you to f off. Yeah.
I sent him a text, Hey, hey, man, seeing like
a lot of stuff from you lately online. Yeah, you're right, yeah,
And he basically said, yeah, it's none of your business. Yeah
that's what I said. I say that, I go okay, Like,
this is one guy we both know, and he was in the radio business.
He wasn't well known, and he got he got laid off years ago.
But he's always wanted to do radio. He loves radio. But and
he's taking this job at a local grocery chain, let's say, and he's
no, no, no, no, And crowds is never I don't think
I've ever seen crones in a movie. He's a happy guy. So no,
but this guy is just he was always miserable and I saw a couple
opportunities that I thought could help this dude. Opportunities like work, opportunities like
radio, not just radio, but just in general. Like you lived in
the vicinity, and I'm like, all you had to do is basically be
competent to do this job and it paid a lot more. And I said,
listen, hey, there's an opportunity in your neighborhood to do this.
He goes, what what if you sign up five friends, you get a
freebie or something like that. I go, Okay, you know what,
I'm done trying to help you. Man, go back and smoke some more.
Potcha can't for what do you care? But the point is, like
you're tried to help nobody. Yeah, but he was reaching out. He's
letting the world know. Well, that's true. That is a weird thing.
I would have reached out if he wasn't, you know, if he
was everything fifteen minutes right. And this person too, was putting up a
thing where you go, I almost as though, you know, I I'm
feeling good to You're looking for that encouragement, And I thought, if this
helps you wonderful, what do I care. I'm still gonna laugh behind your
back. It's fine. So there's this one guy who we know whom declared
himself an alcoholic and posted it on social media. Because I'm not the kind
of alcoholic you think I am, Like, don't talk about it. I
don't know. I don't know you should. In other words, I don't
have a drinking problem where I need to drink every day. I have the
drinking problem where when I have one leads it to which leads a form makes
me very angry. He can't stop, right, yeah, he goes.
But I don't even need to drink every day. But I think I'm an
alcoholic. So thoughts and prayers are welcome, and I could use your encouragement.
So all these people locally and some heavy hitters are like, this is
so good view to post this. Man, I wish you the best best
to help for you. Man, Are you gonna get me in any kind
of trouble? Because if I know two days years ago, this is years
ago, I'm gonna know. I'm gonna write down on who I think it
is. Okay, all right, all right, and then you you tell
me if I'm right, alrong, keep going. Keep Two days later,
people, I guess people started calling him out, saying dude, you're not
really an alcoholic, You're an attention horror stop it really yeah, yeah,
I knew it. And then he starts going off about how people are me
and I'm like, no, I'm with them, dude, you're not an
alcoholic attention Okay, but but but here's here's what see, this is where
I get is why this to bring it back to you're saying, this is
why we get sarcastic and facetious when people post those fishing type of posts.
Yes, but this is why we can't take it back. But I don't
react to them, and I am entertained by it. I am I am
entertained. You know, I this the person that I'm talking about, uh,
is an attractive person, but clearly in pain. And I thought,
I don't know why all of a sudden hit me and think, I'm like,
what, Maybe this is a good thing, Maybe it's nice. Maybe
this is a plus side of social media. Right. Not everybody's built moran,
But you're absolutely right. They broke the moll when they made you know,
they didn't, but they did. I'm just saying like, okay,
But then on the other side, when it comes to and and and there's
something where if a woman posts one thing, I maybe it's misogynistic of me.
I don't know, but I would have a little more empathy when a
woman is saying something and being honest. And I think women are I will
always think that the feminine, I'll call it, that is more emotionally intelligent.
Yes, I really do. And I think like most guys now they
have the advantage though, because they are the pursued. Yes, but I
also think, but well, okay, but I also think the guys are
both through nurture and nature both I think just don't have it. I think
naturally we don't sometimes get it or not have to worry. Well, we
don't get it. We don't get some of these. There's a disconnect in
some of the emotional stuff, like always but we have feelings for things.
But then we're also told a man because women are trained, not trained,
but like genetically are supposed to be mothers. Yes, nurturing right, they
also have to worry about more as the I don't want to say weaker vessel
of the male and female species, but they are the ones that need to
be protected more than we do. Like you and I don't have to worry
about going in the parking lot to worry about getting jumped or working by.
Maybe I do, maybe I should, And that goes to your point of
emotional intelligence. Black again anyway, No, no, no, no,
that's fine. But the one you're talking about, it is it is odd
and I think there I will tell you off air, I say, off
air, but off microphone. What what I really think is is the thing
there? Okay, yeah, all right, because you know, look I
would. I did go for an alcohol evaluation. I remember I did do
that, like eighty days or something without a drink. Yeah, I almost
went ninety. I was trying to go ninety and like you were, you
were like mister club soda guy. I went to a Katie Center. But
I did it because should have a taste. Something happened and it was one
of those things again more social situation, but social situation that I didn't keep
a lid on and I can't, and there are times I can't keep a
lid on, and I wouldn't. I have a history, a family history
of alcoholism, a long family history of alcoholism. So I thought, now
this isn't good, and I just went All I do was talk to somebody
and then I went. Now the evaluation, it seems like to be an
alcoholic. It's like I felt as though they're going, do you sniff a
wine cork, you're an alcoholic. I don't know, don't they lord the
standards? I don't know. I can't say. Back in mind, Dave,
if you want to be an alcoholic, you had to hurd it.
Look you're not you're not out there. I've had family members they couldn't buy
the kid's shoes because they drank the money away, like the day's pay,
whatever it was. And then we're going back, we're going back at we're
going back at generation or two generations for me, two generations. But that's
not that long ago. You know, if we say generations every twenty five
years, you're not that long ago, right. People that I was aware
of were aware of the story. People I knew, right my grandparents' stuff.
It was that generation. And so you go, yeah, that's a
problem. I was never there. No, I was never there. I
think there's like a spectrum yes of right, But I mean, and and
neither were people that I that I was depended upon. They weren't certainly held
down jobs and things, but I you know, I had a battle with
the bottle. Well, I had that friend I was telling you about,
right who who didn't invite me to his intervention. Yeah, he just quit
drinking that day. Yeah, he never had. He went he went to
not a meeting, but he went to a counselor. Yeah, he has
an addrex sise in like ten years. I'll tell you my theory on this.
And I don't know even I was kind of fooled, like I didn't
know you were an alcoholic. Well, the idea that it's a disease,
we're told it's a disease. I'm not sure that I agree with that.
I agree with you, and I think people get very angry at me.
And I'm not saying that that's that there isn't something and then and all these
rehab facilities and it's wonderful, and I hope that you do change your life,
and I hope that you have a better life, and I hope that
you're able to hold a job and relationships and all these things, and that
the bottle doesn't get in the way or whatever it is. But I think
that a lot of times there's some kind of deeper emotional pain and you're medicating
it and I think if you get to the root of whatever that is.
I don't know what it is, neither do you exactly, but if you
would allow yourself to I don't know what it is. I'm not a big
talk therapy fan, but hey, you got to start somewhere, you know,
figuring stuff out. What is it that is made you go here?
And then does your body become dependent upon it and stuff like that? Yeah,
yes, so could it become to Maybe I don't it can, but
like you don't wake up in the morning after years of sobriety that you know
what? Man, But there is sometimes suburban say what Dan, that's a
lot of character. I know, I'm just craving some bourbon. You know
what bourbon taste? Not really, I don't know. I don't know what
the story is, and I'm sure people will get upset, but I usually
think there's some underlying thing that you're trying to mask. And a lot of
times there's a term for people who do what your friend did, and that's
a dry drunk. And it's somebody who puts one addiction with another. Now
all of a sudden, they're working out all the time and that's their thing,
or they immerse themselves into work where they immerse themselves into being sober and
preaching, and again not bad, better than the alternative, clearly, but
but I think there's still all that pain that is there. He's still there.
Don't you love the guy who quits a habit, and that has to
educate everybody else. We work with a guy like that to quit smoking,
and then he decided to go tell the world about how bad smoking was.
Why I know, and I'm gonna die. I can't. I can't laugh
again. I find it someone entertaining and I go, it doesn't really I
don't know why I do this, but it doesn't really affect my life.
And as long as they're happy, and if they feel good about what they're
doing, I I care. They don't skin off my ass. No,
and I'm not going to stop to listen to you either. I got shit
to do. You talk good for you by man, I don't good for
you? Good for you? Patronizing and shitty. Yeah, to be honest
with you, that's that's great. It's great. Hey, I gotta go
to Wegmans. Man. I I did see something today to real quick that
eighty nine percent of people, according to UH today dot you gov dot com
survey, eighty nine percent of people say they've been in love. I'm wondering
who these others are. I'm not kidding. My first thought was, wow,
I don't know anybody who at some point in their life wasn't in love
or said they were in love or felt like they were in love. Maybe
they aren't sure definition of love. They told them what they had was lust
or infatuation, but real love. Okay, but okay, but eleven percent,
that's a lot of people. I'd saying one in ten or more exactly
more, a little more than ten. Yea in ten that says they've never
been in love. I bet they loved the bottle. They love something.
All right, Well, we'll take a moment. I want to try to
call a person who's been on the program before. Okay, do you remember
Tabitha? Oh yeah, she was the one who had the French bulldog ripped
out of her hand. I think some Kevin sent me this. I think
there's a warrant out for her, like an Old West style warrn for real,
for real. I don't know, I don't I just want to do
you see this woman responding I've been corresponding with her. I'll tell you this
young lady is a hustler, like she works really hard. I wonder if
she was trespassing somewhere for what her new business is, which is abandoned uh
storage sheds. She goes in and just cleans out the junk. I would
not be surprised if there was a miscommunication somewhere where whoever owned stores unit x
y Z thought that that Danny had abandoned it because he hasn't paid in six
months, and figured, fuck it, we're opening up. If you find
things, you know, we're auctioning this stuff off. And she went in
there and I don't know that's I'm hoping it's that. But we'll try to
call her. We may not get her, and if we don't get her,
that's fine. I have I have another story that's gonna make everybody squirm.
Wow. Yes, we'll get to the paxt oh lots unpacked. Next.

Hi, guys, my name is Christine. I'm otherwise known as missus
Alfie, and I'm just wondering can you let Alfie know on his way home
can he pick up some bread and some SAMs? And also we went to
Alaska at the beginning of July. Okay, by guys, and be sure
to like and subscribe to Bilified wherever you get your podcast or here when Alfie
was on Oh yeah, yeah ye, well yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah yeah yeah, yoh yeah. Now I remember, I remember,
yeah, that's right, yes, And I didn't mean to play that
one again. But I think Alfie gets a kicked out of kick his wife
called. I want to try to call uh. This woman, Tabitha.
Tabitha. Tabitha was the one who had the French bulldog snatched out of her
arms and then she ran after it grabbed on tried to climb through the window
to get the French bulldog back. It was literally like this woman drove by,
reached out and snatched it out of her hands at a gas station,
and then she chased this woman down. I think it was Monroe Ave in
the city of Rochester. A lot of a lot of things just going on
with UH with Tabitha. So I just I don't know that she'll answer,
but I'm secretly hoping that she will because I have a question for Tabitha,
and by the way, hustler making it work. You know, I am
impressed by the things I see with her, But I don't I don't think
she's gonna answer. Maybe maybe she'll call us back later on the advice of
my attorney to don't count it. That's funny. I don't usually answer the
fate. I get a lot of calls from people on Facebook. Oh do
you really? Yeah? I used to too, until I got rid of
it. I don't. Sometimes they don't answer because I don't. I always
think, well, maybe they butt dialed. Is it amazing how we used
to pay for phone calls? Yeah? Facebook, maybe I have butt dialed
or something. But no, All right, well we'll wait on that.
U. Saint John Fisher went into lockdown yesterday and I saw that friend of
mine who uh and we'll talk to Deputy Hurley about that at seven thirty.
Uh. But a friend of mine who's a professor over there, I thought
he did a pretty good thing. He sent me video of him. He
allegedly broke into the dean's office and found a bottle of Jamison and got Dixie
little Dixie cups and handed out shots to the students that were twenty one.
I think mostly he was higher level, class level, Yeah, something like
that. So most of them were twenty one, and they're out in the
hallway and he goes, well, I don't know if I'll get in trouble,
but I thought, if the school goes into lockdown, and you don't
know why. Your mind races a million different ways. So to have somebody
who's I thought it was I know this is this is a way overused term
brilliant, but I thought it was brilliant in that I made you think of
something other than And that's exactly what I mean when I say go for the
better feeling thought. You know, if this thought makes you feel shitty,
go for the better feeling thought. There's got to be something that that's better.
Wasn't that the premise of the movie Life is Beautiful being detained by the
Germans, and so to get to so the guy doesn't scare his kid,
right, he says, we're going on a competition to win a tank y.
Yeah. It was amazing, amazing, brilliant. Yeah, so totally
distracted and I felt sort of that was what this this professor was doing last
night when he sent me the video, and I thought that to me was
a great thing because we don't know anymore. You don't know if he goes
into lockdown, you think somebody's shooting immediately, Yeah, I would assume I
would probably think, God, who farted? You know what I mean?
Something stupid? However, that doesn't mean that's how everybody is. And I
don't know. It's funny is that you know, you and I both went
there and Fisher, Like I used to tell people when I went back home,
I go, it's like the safest place in America. Like nothing even
remotely dangerous happens there. And I can't say that anymore now after this incident
that happened last night, because like, like nothing ever happened. I remember
some things happening when you were there. Yeah, I mean I know that
Jennifer Coomb was killed, but that was that was off campus. Oh yeah,
oh you mean on campus. I'm talking about, like I don't even
on those park acres in Pittsford that they like, like the brag of a
forty five park like acres or they call them. Nothing ever happens then,
No, no, no, no, no, nothing, No, that's
true. The only thing they get jel for is underage drinking. Yeah all
right, all right now I don't remember that at all. Yeah nothing,
no, nothing does. That's a fair point. I didn't, uh,
because I remember a couple of different I remember a fight that was pretty bad,
but it was at off campus. House of our stuff happens all the
time. Yeah, hear the news like every six months or something, you
know, Yeah, but I had to compare schools Now. Listen, this
is a news story that came today, and you answer forgive me because of
course the buttons changed colors, not me. And I don't know what now
I've got too pink. I don't know how that happened. Okay, I
don't know idea, but this is a very bizarre news story. And I
saw it and I thought, how does this happen? How does this happen?
And that's not it? Wait, this is it? Yeah, this
is it because it took a how does this happen? Listen to this story?
It is outraged. For a couple hours, my face just started swelling,
so my lips swelled. I could hardly talk. My whole face felt
like it was on fire. First Coast News is not okay. Algy attack,
well, it sounds like that, right, sounds like an allergy attack.
Yeah. Not identifying the man from this procedure, but the patient said
he began feeling off in October of twenty twenty three, thirty years ago.
He had neuroblastoma, which removed a cancerous tumor in his nose and left him
with an extremely compromised immune system over the course of a few hours. OK
so he has a compromised immune systems, probably deals with a lot of sinus
stuff like that, you know, colds, things that are yeah that most
of us would be able to turn up, light off. Yeah hours.
Last week, his face became extremely swollen. I started getting those bleeds,
constant nosebleeds. I couldn't even get up to go to the bathroom without my
nose starting to bleed. And that's when he went to HCA Florida Memorial Hospital.
When I went for the examination, factor goes, I see movement.
Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, what is up his nose? It's
is this will freak you out, This will freak out. We would smell
it, right, you would, Okay, but it's a weird thing.
Like the other thing is I have a deviated septum from getting punched in the
face. So my nose is all crooked. I can't tell. If you
look at it close enough, you can, but it's look it's a it's
a good sized nose anyway. So uh yeah, So I I get up
in the morning and I'll take a tissue sometimes and twist it. This is
really lovely, And I'll go up the nostril side because there's a big you
make a U turn and go out the other side. No, but there's
a big bubble on one side, so I go up around it and try
to pull things out. Sometimes it gets stuck up there. That it's lovely.
It's a lovely thing. So I'm thinking, that's with this guy.
How did you not go up if you know what I mean, and try
to see what's in there? What was it? Doctor David Charlson was the
e n T on call that night. We took a little camera and we
looked in the nose and that's when things dramatically changed, dramatically changed. Dan
was it pieces of his brain. That's a good thing because like the Egyptians
when the used to remove I watched this on NCIS last night, they remove
your brain through your nose, which I knew back at sixth grade. But
the reminder was last night at NCIS, my wife watches these shows to fall
asleep. Oh yes, that's your story, that's her bedtime story. Was
watching doctor Mallard, who recently passed away. They removed the braid through the
nose. Tissue, Jeff Rove. So I'm wondering maybe it's pieces of his
brain. Are cot dozens of bugs alive and feeding on the inside of the
patient's nose and sinus cavity. Size wise, you know, there was variations,
but but some of the larger ones were as probably as big as the
end of my pinky. Ah, the end of your pinky, Dan,
right here, Look at the end of your pinky. Now, your pinky's
bigger than mine. Yeah, I have small hands. No, but that's
still a good sized bug in your nose. That's a good sized bug in
your nose, just hanging out. How did you get there digging it?
Great question? Great question. Compromised immune system. I don't know that an
immune system fights off something that's coming in bugs, don't know. I knew
he was in big trouble. There was erosion that was occurring. Up erosion
and that's not erosion, folks. Was like they they the inside of this
man's nasal cavity there what we call the skull base, that was in very
close proximity to his eye and his brain, so they could have gotten up
into his brain. Oh my gosh. Right, and his whole face had
swollen up, and that was his indicator to go. Doctor Carlson immediately tried
to remove the bugs. Now, listen to this. Tries to remove the
bugs operative word try. We initially attempted to try to remove these via suction
with a little device, but it ended up clogging up the suction. There
were they were large enough. I couldn't get him through the section. Oh
my gosh, they plugged up the vacuum. Some of them were so big
that the thing they stuck in his nose couldn't get through. How in the
hell Now, I don't know. I wish I could find this guy because
I have lots of questions, including I know I already know the answer,
you have no woman in your life. Yeah, there is no way they
would have interviewed the wife. There's no way he has a wife. They
would have been interviewed the wife. You'd have to interview the wife. You'd
have to put the wife on camp. I'm not even saying that. If
she refused and said I don't want to, I can. I'm uncomfortable.
There's no way he's waiting as long as he did to go to the doctor.
One. Because this was began in October of twenty twenty three. We're
talking about it now. This is a recent news story. I don't I'm
not gonna say that it happened this week, but sometime this month. So
we're October, November, December, January, four months later. Stand what
I'm saying. That's one bugs colonized against sid your navy. Two How dirty
is your house? Yes, Doug Phelps, how dirty is your house?
Part of that Thursday night you know? And uh one of my acts is
going to be about the old ladies and uh, you know, bugs in
my notes. So wait, so my question is if it's that dirty?
No way, no way. I remember I was so happy as a child,
so excited when I got sent home from school because they found lice in
my hair so you could stay home. Yeah, I didn't want to be
in school. Oh my gosh, she's going to be so embarrassed. My
parents were mortified. But it wasn't. We're the last family. No,
it wasn't. There was another kid, I remember his first and last name,
Patrick Rolf. Oh this poor guy. And Patrick was like, welcome
to Billified Patrick, Patrick. I don't know what happened to Patrick, you
kid, I don't know, but out Patrick had it, and I sat
next to Patrick, so they popped over and it was like all of us
in a vicinity the school crabs no jump. Yeah it was Patrick rolf Me,
Ricky Hare, Nancy har Ricky Hare got righty hair, Ricky hair,
h A r E. Ricky Harris, guy's got tattooed down. I remember
Ricky Hare's dad was from Scotland and he loved a CD. S Oh yeah,
of course he did that. The first man that came to mind,
I'm sure he's got it cut his I don't know. Ricky Hare's dad was
very It was cool guy, Ricky Rackman. But we're in third, second
or second or maybe second grade and I was just happy to go home.
That's usually where life starts, the second grade. But let me just say
again, disgusting your parents mortified. We don't keep a house like did you
have like I remember, it was like you had it by the special shampoo
my hair rit Yeah, my had the little stops a fine tooth, so
you had turned had it. My sister got it. So they stopped doing
this. So here's what happened back in Silver Creak picture at Silver Creek nineteen
eighty seven. Right, So there was a lice breakout in the school.
In Missus Fox's class, God Rest her soul, third grade, they had
to like exterminate the classes. It weird that my head feels it to you
as we're talking about this. It was mine too. So then all of
a sudden there were more and more kids getting lice. It was going through
the school, so they had to like call off school for a couple of
days. So of course, my next door neighbor decides that she's going to
use this opportunity to run for school board and she made a freaking career out
of the Channel two news was talking about the lice lice outbreak in Silver Creek
Central School and so like my sister had it, so we all had to
get checked sure lice. H What they found out was like the kids would
get to bring a special person of the nurse bring home a teddy bear.
Right. So but in the eighties where we didn't know any better, and
so they all share these stuffed animals and that's how it would spread from kid
to kid. Right. I remember the nurse, Missus Blackburn, I think
her name was Blackbird or or she got remarried. She was a redhead,
but she had short red hair, but always always in my perverted third grade
mind. Go and I didn't even know this at the time, but I
always thought, I bet she was really pretty when she was younger. Now,
I would go, man, you should have seen her in twenty years
ago. Terrible. Well you bring up the school nurse and the lice.
Yeah, so we used to have to go to get lice checks. Yeah,
so they break the stick and they go through your hair. And I
gotta tell you this is gonna sound really strange, but I loved it.
Yeah, it was so soothing. Yeah. I would ask missus Becker,
can I go get a light check? She goes, you don't have lice.
You just got checked like two months ago. Yeah, but I I
you know, I really could use a lif She would just like the way
it felt. Yeah, she would call my mother, your son doesn't have
lice. Remember he's going to get license. Did you say some of your
family says about you? What do they say about you that I'm on the
spectrum? Yeah, so hang on, hang on a second, hang on
now, since my wife, sensory is a big deal, sensory issues,
So that's a sensory thing. I like the way it feels it and so
if I could go back and do it again, I would. Yeah,
okay, So sensory stuff and like do you like soft sometimes soft blankets,
soft things, sometimes rough thing like a sock with certain things on it,
help a kid. And there's just different stuff. You may be deep tissue
massages. Fucking no, I'm totally kidding you, but yeah, I no,
no, I'm not. It is that's all real. Sensory things are
very real with with people and helping kids. That's why some some kids,
some people, not kids, anybody, human beings. Some people like to
you know, like be tight, have the blankets tight around them because it
just feels cozy. It's a sensory thing. Yeah, it just feels better.
It's all. I'm a very ugly guy. Back to that's my wife.
My wife the point of annoyance. She's like, I can't sleep,
you're breathing heavy in the ear, you're snoring. I put an extra waist.
Smell that good? All right? Now back to the man with the
books. I did too, and I have an issue. I have another
issue. Really, we got to get to that. We'll get to it.
I do too, But this is the bugs in the nose back to
the bugs in the nose. I just said, the lice and how upset
my mom and the house. Oh my god, people won't want to come
here. I think we're dirty. Blah blah bob. By the way,
if you have lice in your hair, it means you have really clean hair.
Lice can't be can't hang on to like dirty hair. I don't know
if you knew that. It's one of those things where, oh, Patrick
Raf didn't have clean hair dirty for some reason, the cement that the lice
used to build their nests in your head. No, no, for real,
like, they can't attach the dirty hair. You don't know, Okay,
fine, what do I know? You don't. So we ended up
having to remove them one by one using different instrument, take on different because
they couldn't suck him out of his nose his nose. Did they put him
out or could they put it? You can't break through your nose? Well,
listen to and it hurt because they weren't coming willingly either. One hundred
and fifty bugs in the lot of states were fifty bugs. They had to
pull out one hundred and fifty bugs. You just they got them all they
were pulled out of the patient's nose and have been sent off to an epidemiologist
to determine what type of bug they are. They they're called again. They
were upright against his skull base right underneath the brain. Had they gone through
that, they could have killed him. This case is extremely rare. There's
nothing like it documented in the United States. Yeah, okay, thank got
nothing like it documented in the United States. However, well I don't know.
I mean it could I mean, could it be that someone died and
we I'm too sure an autopsy they would have found it. So nothing documented.
So where does this come from? And where in the world is it
happening? And why would it happen here? Is this something that happens like
in South America where people I don't know. Listen to this guy, And
while doctor Carlson doesn't want to cause widespread pan, he does caution people with
compromised immune systems. Certainly, if you're going to be around the dirty environment
and those hands need to be washed, I know that I have to change
my lifestyle. Yeah with soap, soap down South they call it soap.
Let me introduce you to a bad water as far as how I handle fish
before I would so fish, So I don't know if he's a fisherman.
And then you wonder whether parasites or something in the fish. And then he
picked his nose, which sounds silly. Yeah, happen rinse my hands in
the river, you know now, so he would rinse his hands in the
river. So I don't know what this guy is a lot of questions,
Yeah, I got a lot of questions. Well, I'll use a cleaner
to just do a better job in between and make sure I don't touch my
nose with my hands. The patient was given an anti parasitic and will be
evaluated three to four times a year, but is expected to make a full
recovery. Reporting in Jacksonville, Rich Donaldley, First Coast News on your Side.
So this is Florida. So the guy is fishing, washes his hands
in the river. Who knows what? How filthy dirty the water is?
Usually you would think of the waters, you know, pretty clean. A
lot of people think you wash your hands a Lake Ontario billy. There you
go there, Well, hang on, I've jumped into Lake Ontario. Yeah
but yeah, okay, did you jump in with the idea that when I
get home, I'm going to bathe. I don't know. I think there
were times I jumped in the bay and I didn't bathe. All right,
I might have gone to bed, well, might have passed that, okay,
but I remember I used to jump off a boat a lot many There
was a period of time in my life where I spent a lot of time
down there. Okay, yeah, yeah, because no, I understand,
I hear what you're saying. There are other people, though, Dan,
that believe that that water holds all the knowledge of the world, and god
like it is the most There are people that believe that, oh you know,
Jesus was baptized. That's well, that's part of the reason he was
dunk. He wasn't sprinkled yet people. All right, So anyway, uh
A bizarre story, Yeah, scary story. We've heard of things in people's
ears and stuff not good. This was bizarre. And they show you in
the news. They even go graphic. You have to click it twice because
you want to see it. But they look like maggots like you would see
you ever see maggots in a garbage can or something. Yeah, they look
like that, and they're like digging into the guys nose and eating away and
it's a moist environment. And did the ASBA c A show up and say
no, you cannot kill the maggots. We'll take them. They did with
us one, Yes they did. That's right when I was going to do
the goldfish Goldfish experiment. That's a good one. I forgot that. That
was a great show. Yeah, I forgot. That was one of our
top ten shows maybe top five. That won you an award. Yeah at
the Morning Show boot camp. You want like five hundred bucks or bit of
the ear. Yeah, I did. That is true, That is true.
A lot of people were jealous. I yeah. It also caused problems
within the radio community. Yeah it did. You're right. I did forgot
about that. We had whatever, I don't know, good time. Yeah,
but it's all out in the book. It's coming out. There's a
lot of work. I'm I'm I'm I'm tired. I'm tired, and I'm

word for you was temperance. Remember that. This year, my word for
you is Sabbath. Yeah, take one day off a week. Well,

it staying here. And the reason I would stay here and i'd be here

oreos. There was traditional and vanilla, and they were there because I whatever,
for whatever reason, they were there and there were some left, and
I thought, well, I won't have any, so I ate something else.
And then I'm like, yeah, all right, I'll have a couple.

these just to get rid of them. And then my stomach hurts after these.
And this morning it was bombs away from my from my bed. No

when I farted. Oh, it was like, would need to sleeve?

weight and it's annoying me. And you know, I shot a different kind
of video today. I'm like, Jesus Christ, is it weird that?

party wonders or hopes that I have bugs in my stomach? That but this
weight gain that I've had, is it my fault? That's somehow I got
a Parasiteli me, I'm a big bone. It's a genetic problem. No,

is the story that thirteen Wham had at midday today regarding Saint John Fisher University
going into lockdown. I I didn't hear about it till almost eight o'clock at
night. A video showed up after that, but I don't know if this

No, that's okay. Hey, I'm just saying for people may know what
POT is, and I don't even know what POT stands for. I couldn't
tell you, but I heard it the other day. Actually yeah, yeah,
but I wouldn't know if you asked me on Jeopardy again. Then into
lockdown, joining us. I'm happy Fridman the Monroe County Sheriff's Office announcing the
arrest of nineteen year old Shalom Matthews. That incident began around five point thirty
yesterday when deputies say Matthews tried to stab a staff member inside her campus office.
Yeah, Shalom is a woman. Her name is Shalom, which means
peace. Right. No, this was a guy, she said her Shalom.
I thought was No, Shalom's the dude. Oh okay, I thought
maybe woman, the woman as a professor. Okay, but Shalom means peace.
Yeah, that's why I was like, Shalom stabbed Malome from Brighton stab
Yeah, okay. Well at the Wegman School of Pharmacy. According to the
felony complaint, that employee told officers Matthews came to her office around that time
seeking guidance and appeared to be in distress. Matthews allegedly told her he lived
off campus and could not go home out of fear of his father would kill
him over his failing grades. Ah ah, failing grades. I don't think
I ever worried. I think every kid went we were gonna coo me,
but we knew they weren't going to kill as we should get BAKA around this
kid. Y, Yeah, I knows and back home. But I don't
think, I don't. I don't know. So he says, my grades
are failing, So I don't know if he was there to try to get
her to change a grade, so he threatened with a knife. I don't
know. The complaint says the employee reportedly offered him mental health support, but
he declined, stood up from his chair, pulled a knife from his coat
pocket, and tried to stab her. She told deputies she was able to
fight back, getting a hold of the knife. Yeah, so she got
the knife. This is a very bizarre thing, right, Yeah, like
that's some that's scary quick thinking on her part and forcing him from her office.
She then called nine to one one, leading to that lockdown. Matthews
was later arrested at a plug. Well. Now, okay, so she
threw up. I'm assuming I'm inserting things here that I have no idea what
happened. She's able to wrestle the knife away, force this guy out of
her room. I'm sure she locks the door and calls nine to one one.
Now we don't know where he is. Got to go on lockdown absolutely,
yes, anythink, Yeah, we don't know what he's capable of.
I know he had a knife. I don't know if he had anything else.
Plaza on Jefferson Road around twelve thirty this morning and a statement on social
media the university thanked a lot you said so with the Jefferson plaza at twelve
thirty this morning they found Yeah, enforcement as well as the community for their
patients during that investigation. Matthews is facing two charges attempted kidnapping and attempted sex
abuse after allegedly threatening her with a knife with the intent of tying her up
and sexually assaulting her. He was arrainged this morning and is being held on
bail. We're this is why we need to talk to deputy her life.
The Sheriff's office and the university will hold a joint news conference. Yeah,
there was a news conference. They were updating social all kinds of things.
Who will call it je So two weird things that connected me to this story
sort of yesterday. Yeah, I had an opportunity to lacrosse game yesterday and
I turned it down. Okay, that was on campus. I would have
been there all night. Second thing, I almost went to dairy queen at
the Jefferson Plaza after the podcast last night, we were this kid would have
been Deputy Hurley. How are you, sir? Goodn't you doing well?
We were just playing the news clip about the incident with Shalom I think it
was the name. They said, Shalom Matthews, who was from Brighton and
arrested. But it was this morning he got arrested at the Jefferson Plaza.
I was on Jefferson Road, Yeah, named Henrietta. Yep. The deputy
spotted his vehicle and made a traffic stop at about twelve thirty, just after
twelve thirty in the morning. So this was yesterday at five thirty, correct
when this first went down at Saint John Fisher in the in the School of
Pharmacy. Correct. Okay, So I'm trying to put this together. I'm
assuming from the news story we hear that he went there to say, I
can't go home. I'm failing now. Grades aren't coming out. I don't
believe I think grades right, grades will come out until May May. I
mean we're in semester number two. Yeah, at Fisher, and it's not
like they said progress reports home, and manah, maybe they do. We're
in high school halfway through. If you were failing, well, unless they
give you an online portal and his father has access to it. I don't
think he's paying the bill. I'm not. I don't want to assume that's
not fair. But I was just thinking, there are ways to high set
of your parents. I have to burn mine. So this guy says,
my father's gonna kill me. And then when she offers him mental health counseling,
saying hey, you can go talk to somebody, he stands up and
pulls the knife out that that we know where does the sexual ast assault attempts
come from? So this part's tricky, right because you know all the stuff
that has put out we uh, you know, we do the investigation.
After he was pulled over, he was detained, he was taken back for
questioning. Part of the interview with him, and some of the evidence that
we had found led to the arrest for those charges. You know, the
court paperwork that they're reading from kind of alludes a little bit to it,
but you know, the rest we can't go too much more into because it's
got it. Still, he has the right to affair trial, so you
can't totally tip the hand and skew any possible jury members. Understood, understood,
But so uh you know, and I spoke earlier and you said,
you know, one of the things that the police teach citizens is uh,
run hide, fight, right, absolutely, Yeah, run run away and
hide, and if there is nowhere to run and hide, then fight as
much as you can. Yeah, don't try to fight. No, no,
no, no, unless you unless you you have nowhere to go.
Well, this professor is in her office. Were she running her hiding?
Yeah? What's you gonna do? They're not very big. I've been in
them. Yeah, even in the new buildings. Uh. So she this
woman is to be I almost want to say commended. I mean, I
don't know if she knows self defense or whatever, but she got the knife
away and got the young man out of her office. Yeah. Again,
this is the best possible scenario. Right, you have someone who seems to
be emotionally disturbed, they display an edged weapon. Obviously the intent there is
to cause bodily harm or you know the threat of bodily harm. So fearing
for your life or the life or another, you can absolutely protect yourself.
And that's what she did. She managed to get the knife away from him,
like you said, shove him outside of the office and lock the door.
The knife was still inside the office, so now he didn't have the
weapon, and then it was up to us to find him. Man.
Kind of a scary thing because once he's out, you don't know, maybe
he's got another weapons stat somewhere else to be in his car, if he's
a commuter, does he have more and you don't know where he is on
the campus. Clearly he probably left that building, but where is he and
exactly, Yeah, that's a pretty scary thing. And in today's world,
you know, you hear lockdown, your mind goes to the worst case scenario,
absolutely, especially on a campus right any kind of educational place, because
unfortunately we've seen this far too many times. So our first concern is absolutely
the safety of all the students and the staff there. You know, they
go into shelter in place. We start searching with every resource we have.
Luckily, the New York State Police helped us out. They sent you know,
multiple troopers there to help us, because you look the size of that
campus and you're doing room to room, door to door, building to building
searches to make sure someone's not hiding in there. Like he said, we
knew he had one knife, we don't know if he had two. We
don't know if he had three. Is he going to the car to grab
a gun. We don't know. And until we can prove any of those
aren't true, we're going to check to make sure they aren't. So,
you know, luckily we had our bloodhound peak there and she actually ended up
tracking straight to a room where later on, through surveillance video, we found
out that he was hiding in for a little bit. Really he was gone,
but yeah, she earned her amazing notes, took her took her handler
right to the room he was originally he was here some kind of the toilet.
It was swagger, I know it, man beech Wood. It's so
it's it's sad because, I mean, who who knows this? This could
clearly be someone who's just having a mental break and not doing well in school
and really really concerned about the parental reaction to this, right, I mean
that really could be the case. And then you just you just snapped and
you went. So his thought process was, I'll go to the professor.
She better change by grade or else oh my goodness, right, or you're
just stuck. Yeah, because it had to be premeditated to a certain point
unless you walk around. I don't know what kind of knife it was.
Can you tell us that? I do ort know. Originally it was described
as like a steak knife, so not like a giant Rambo knife or anything.
Oh, that's what I mean. So I wonder if he went to
the cafeteria first. I'm sorry, So I'm not trying to make light of
this. No, but this guy's a complete amateur. Well I'm not trying
to make again, I'm not trying to make light of it. But it's
like he clearly didn't take this through. No. I think he had a
break, a mental like just lost his Yeah, which is sad because you
go, you're so young, who gives you shit? I had to take
a year off from Saint John Fisher Trust and it went back. I got
it. In the eighteen years have been doing this job. One of the
most frustrating things just trying to figure out the why, right, And one
of the best pieces of advice I ever got was you can't rationalize and irrational
act and it just you know, people's houses getting broken into and things get
stolen, and yeah, property and your your heart broken over that. But
it always seems to be the well, why did they come to my house?
Why did they do that? Right? And you're just you're pretty much
never going to get that and and even cases like this, is it emotionally
disturbed? Is it a pre planned thing? We don't know. But for
us, again, the most important part is the safety of everybody else.
I wonder what happens to this guy down the line. And here's what I
mean. Clearly, you get some help, we fixed, some things can
be adjusted and fixed. But do they allow him to come back and finish
as a matriculating student. And I'm not saying this to be funny or anything.
I don't know. You are a an institution. You have an obligation
to protect everybody who's there, you know, and you don't want to put
them in any danger. And at the same time, what's the Christian thing
to do? They are a a Bible based well but but you know,
I mean a Brazilian college, which is a sect of Catholicism. And what
do you do do you say, hey, we forgive And this is the
thing. I don't know. There is precedent from when I went to school
a similar situation which I'll tell you about after and they let they had to
let this deputy. They had to let the guy back into school and he
graduated. Yeah, and it led to a controversy, and I'll tell you
about that. I'm sure, I'm sure it does. But that that's interesting.
Well, I'm glad everything ended up fine. And I I have a
friend who works over there and sent me video that he was teaching at the
time, and uh kind of did something that would just distract the students a
little bit to keep their minds and made it a little lighter in the classroom
and stuff. Because I think that it's a scary situation. You just don't
know, and that's you know, I guess the question to you is,
when we hear lockdown, you want to make sure that everybody's kind of following
the rules correct. Absolutely. Again, put yourself in our shoes. We're
we're going through all of the buildings. We're looking for this person. And
in the back of your mind, this could be the scariest day of your
life. Right, you don't know what you're responding to, but you want
to find this person. You want to make sure that everybody's safe. And
you also, you know, part of that lockdown is making sure that there
aren't people wandering the hall. So as US police are coming through and checking
systematically, looking through everywhere, you don't have to stop people say who are
you? Where are you? You know what I'm saying, like, you
shouldn't have people that are just wandering the halls because now are they the suspect?
Are they not the suspect? So it really benefits everybody for the lockdown.
And I got to say, you know, the students and the staff
were fantastic last night. I was there and when they released the lockdown,
everybody came out. Nobody was complaining. Everybody understood. They were super grateful.
They were thanking all of us for our service and everything that we do.
And it was just really really nice to see the appreciation and just the
absolute collaboration with everybody to make sure that, you know, everybody did what
they were supposed to do. Deputy, I'm very disappointed in you because you
sound surprised, but you were at our alma madas Saint John Fisher University.
I would expect nothing less. It's like Disney, nothing less. I would
expect nothing less. Than than absolute gratitude. And yeah, no, but
I I that's a good point that people would be not frustrated, you know.
Ohky you got oh it's a big nothing burger Man. Well, you
know, and we don't know, and that that's I think. You know,
it's the biggest human conundrum with death and everything, the fear of the
unknown, and we know, and so you know you want to make sure
that you're taking every precaution. Well, I thank you and behalf for seet
John Fisher University, and thank you for agree to come on any other fun
things happening in the wide world of Deputy Hurley. I'm dying to know who
the person is that has the warrant on your show. Oh okay, all
right, I'll tell you. I think we should do that one in the
studio next time. We could. No, So, I got a text
from one of the guys on the show, Kevin and Kevin Kevin sent me
and it says it's from Greece. It's the Greece Police Department and it's hashtag
mug shot Monday. Did you know that that De Grease police had mug shot
Monday? I have seen it yet. Okay, So mug shot Monday,
and it says wanted charges criminal tampering in the third, menacing in the second,
burglary in the first, and they have this person's name down as Tabitha
five five, one hundred and twenty pounds. Well, I think it's this
woman that we've had on the program before because she was involved in a news
story where her French bulldog was ripped out of her hands at a gas station.
She had a little puppy and some lady said, oh, can I
see it? And she reached out her car and snatched it. So Tabitha
raced after the car, got dragged down Monrue Avenue, trying to open the
door, punching the woman through the face, you know, through the window,
all this stuff. The car drives off. Tabitha eventually does get the
dog back and winds up, I don't know, almost becoming friends. But
she told us the whole story. I wish I knew exactly what episode it
was on our podcast. And then so I've been trying to I've been corresponding
with her and I wanted to get her on and ask her is this her?
But maybe I shouldn't because that would tip her off to the fact that
but she's got to know, she's got to know that mugshot mugshot Monday,
and I think it is this the same woman and we've seen her picture before.
Hang on, this is it Danny mugshot Monday. She actually looks pretty
peaceful in this moment. Yeah, I mean she does. But I mean,
and I wonder, and I say this, Deputy, because she uh,
she also has gotten into a new business where she buys abandoned items from
abandoned storage units. Right, somebody stopped paying on the storage unit. So
now she's flipping, yes, and she's doing some flipping and stuff like that.
So it could very easily be that you were in a place that maybe
you didn't know you shouldn't be, and you wind up getting charged with trespassing
and burglary or whatever because you got in there and maybe you took something not
knowing. I don't know. I'm hoping that it's a little more innocent than
that. However, she it's mugshot Monday, and I'm pretty sure it's her.
Very interesting, Yeah, it is is interesting. Let me ask you
a question. If you ever put a mugshot up like a woman, right,
and they give their height and weight and let's say, like, you
know, not sight, Thank you, thank you. Has that ever happened?
You ever got like a complaint or a lawsuit for misjudging their weight?
You know, it's actually not a bad strategy to get someone to turn themselves
in. Oh my god, you're put it down. You got to you
gotta go twenty pounds over. Yeah, she's five five goddamn, I'm not
you need to take that down. They show up to the police station with
a scale. I don't prove it, so it can't be me. That's
not it can't be me. All right, Well, Deputy Hurley, I
hope things continue to go well. Thank you for giving us some time tonight,
and thanks for keeping Fisher safe. Yes, we'll keeping all of them
in Roe count Yeah, absolutely any time, guys. Thank you so much.
All right, and take care, deputy. So yeah, when I
went to school, I'm not gonna say the guy's name, but I'll give
you enough clues. This guy actually we talked about. You did not know
him. This guy was actually in the news for throwing his kid into a
chair and getting like nailed for like child abuse or something at one point at
a soccer game. It made the news, so this guy apparently got a
failing grade in a calm class, and he's, yeah, yeah, tell
me at that school. And so he sent a threatening letter to a professor
that we know, and she had a pet ferret, and he and the
girlfriend threatened to kill the pet ferret. So this professor runs to a priest
who's down the hall, say, I've been threatened and who had a ferret?
Oh? Well, I don't know who had a ferret. I don't
want, I don't want to say her name, but just hang on.
She had Yeah, she had a fet ferret. Yeah, I didn't know
this either. I found this out like you did. So this guy threatened
to kill her and her ferret. So she runs to one of the one
of the priests. The priest, like you know, brings her to the
uh the front office, you know, the security office. They find the
guy, who did They throw him out of school, all right, He
was supposed to graduate with me. He ends up graduating a year later.
They had to let him back in the school. Okay, okay. And
when it came time to now our one of our favorite professor, doctor Seward,
would be the announcer at graduation, and he refused to call this kid's
name a graduation because of what happened, so he decided to retire from being
the graduation announcer that year. This guy went on to become the deputy mayor
of East Rochester. Oh really yeah, yeah, he also got introll for
throat, like for like some incident in a soccer game where he threw his
kid in a chair or something and it's white. That's a baby. You
can't do that. He's a look. I mean like this guy had some
temper issues, but yeah, threatened, threaten the perfer killed the professor and
her ferret. I always think if you had a ferret as a pet,
it's a little weird. But I went to a fisher out right kindergarten had
ferret outside of Dorsey Hall. Yeah, there is a ferret buried. I
think you told me, yes, there's a ferret buried outside Dorsey Hall North.
So I think that's the guys, the one that's closer to the like
to the campus, the campus, okay, because you go over here,
you're further away here. Yeah, this guy had a ferret and I think
his roommate used to get high and blow pot smoke into the ferret's face and
then somebody gave the ferret gum, and the ferret I know, I think
they got high and gave it. Somehow the ferret got gum. That's I
don't know. I was not involved in this. And uh, the ferret
died. So we I think we buried the ferret. Right, we waited
to dark, we went out, and so we gotta show them we buried
the ferret. Like on the road when you ride in and you look to
your right, the ferri is buried somewhere, right, kidding the ferret.
But I always dot ferris like I didn't. I don't get pets that I
like. I don't get iguanas. I don't get lizards. I don't get
snakes as pets. I don't get it. Give me a dog, yeah,
cat, I can, I mean domesticated. I'm not a cat person.
One of my kids one of the cat. Cat cats could be okay.
But if you get like an animal, well, I like a dog.
Dog, I can talk to a dog. Dog almost responds to me,
gives me that cock eyed look. I like a dog. I'm okay
with dogs and these other things. I don't get it. It's almost like
either dog, cat or goldfish, right, if there's no fish, I
can see any other shoe. Yeah, any other animal. Though. It's
like you got to prove something. You're trying to prove something. I got
a tarantula. Why, well, this guy had a taransola too, and
then the tarantula got out. No he uh. We went away on break
and somebody left the window open a crack, and I guess he left the
transla there with enough food that you don't. He defeated a lot. It
was in his case. Came back the translate had frozen to death and died.
Oh wow, yeah, okay. And so everybody's in watching a movie
in somebody's dorm room and this guy comes in like he's got the translant he
would take it out, and he pretends to trip, and the translor comes
like it's gonna land on us. You never saw more guys in their late
teens early twenties fucking screech and run. I mean, like just everybody's off
the couch. We're diving places because it just fucking tr And he's laughing his
dick off, going it's dead, it's dead, it's dead. Don't worry
about cause I think somebody's ready to like squash it. He's just dead.
He had a transla He had the ferret on campus in a campus dorm.
Like, I don't think he could do that. No, you can't.
No, But you know what, Well, there were a couple of basketball
players when I was a freshman or sophomore that had a pet boa. Yeah
that's another one. I don't get it. And they made him get rid
of it and then somebody found him out. Yeah, he's the other thing
too, Deputy Hurly, they're on lockdown last night. Man, he's got
that dog. What if you got the booze and you're underage in that?
They got to going for that. Yeah, but you know what, you
never does like smelling. We have to smell. The dog is looking for
that one cent. But what was the set though, do they have like
the guys sin, I don't know. They they found his ze. Do
you still have a scent special scent? Well? Yeah, I think each
I think so. It smells like shalom. Oh yeah, it's definitely shalom.

I heard this as a kid in high school. My my my favorite teacher
would talk to you about everything, and he would always go man dealdering aluminum
and dealdring it's not bad. You're rubbing out on your body. And for
whatever reason, I had done that weird diet where you had to do like
different dealdoring and stuff, and I don't know, a couple of years ago,
I thought, you know what, I'm gonna get off this aluminum stuff.
I'm gonna stop using the men's dove and I started using Tom's. And
I told you I bought two because I would all of a sudden catch a
whiff of bo coming from me. Oh my god. So I kept one
here in the studio. And then I decided I don't really like Toms.
It's not working. So I have something called Well Jesus Christ, this is
like putting on It's tough, it pulls the hairs, it's not smooth.

app, and you can't have to subscribe to it, but sometimes you can
get like some free advice on it. It's called Think Dirty, and it's
about all the chemicals that you put on your body. Deodorant, hair spray,
shaving cream, r you name it. And I realized that all the
crap I was putting on me was like on a scale of zero to ten
means zero means completely clean, ten meaning the worst thing can put on your
body. Were like in the eight nines and tens, old spice deodorant,
high endurance, that suff and I'm an old spice guy, like you could

would used the soap, I would use the deodorant. I had the hair
gel and the body spray, and I just I just smelled lick a million
bucks. And I looked this stuff up and realized, oh my gosh,
my hormones are all the whack because I'm putting this stuff on. So I
switched to this stuff called Schmid's deoder, which I found it Whole Foods.
And it's like it's like taking like chalk to your You put on a shirt,
a black shirt, you have these white streaks underneath. So now I
just don't wear it at all. Also, I'm going out somewhere, what
do you wear? No deodorant? I just I just don't worry. I
don't word like I'm not wearing any right now. God damn, that's what
it is. Something in this fucking studio. I No, it's not me,

big joke. But I yeah, because I remember English leather. But the
drakar was the one that, like I wore that a lot, and I
wore that I was sneaking out of my house to meet some girls. And
I've told this story before, but I'll tell it again because that's what I
do in this podcast. Uh. My parents had there were three of us.
It was a ranch house, and so my dad built me a room
in the basement and then replaced the windows with these windows that would fold in.

got a worst grade. Okay, I'll tell you that. I'll tell you
the whole story. So I was going out. I had the biggest crush
on this girl and she was a year ahead of me, so I was
going to go. So I sneak out of my house and I was going
to meet them. And it was probably I'm going to say, half mile
from my house where I needed to go, Okay, And it was one
of these nights where the moon was full and my parents. It was warm
because my parents was the only room they had the air conditioner, so they
had the air conditioning going and they had put a TV in the room,
so I lower the window I had. I wanted my I didn't want to
bed in my room. I had a convertible couch convertible so it would be
cool, be like a dorm room or whatever. So I I do the
Uh. I crawl out the window and I'm sneaking by and I see my
parents. I'm freezing, and I like, not freezing and cold, but
like freeze, almost like you're playing freeze tag. Make sure that they I
can see the TV flickering a little bit, and I can hear the air
conditioner, and uh, and I just go. I just go for it.
And they didn't hear anything. So I go down. Now these are
like cart paths, these country roads that I lived on, and a car's
coming up the road. Well, I don't want to be seen because it
could be a neighbor that would recognize me or something. So I'm diving into
woods. Then I get down to the end. I have to hop over
a barbed wire fence into a field and lay on the other side of a
rock wall as cars are going by with the cowfield. And then I had
to run up this like it was a this one road it was hicks Hill.
This is the name of the road and Hicks Hill. I had to
run up the road and then down the road and I meet them. Well,
I had Jakarrod, you put your car with a little bit of your
body lather when you're sweating a little bit. Now you got a fucking cloud.
You got a cloud of just stench. So I so the girls pull
up. Yeah, the girls pull up and I get in the front seat,
and I can tell by the girl that's driving sleep well, because you
could smell it. I mean, Dan, it was probably within a ten
foot radius around me, like, you got it, and it's your car,
and noir. And I remember getting in and uh, I think we
all we did was go to a diner or something, but uh no,
we went back to a party in the field and then to a diner.
And and so there are the two other guys who were in their class in
the backseat, but I didn't know it, and they're like hey, and
I mean I was so embarrassed, and then they're like cracking the windows and
stuff. It was terrible. But I wore the djakar thinking that it was
gonna be my thing. Teenagers, Yeah, we do have to clone it
well, so it was, it was, and you overdid it and it
was just ridiculous. I wear no cologne I used. I use one a
soap that you can't really find anymore. It was a commercial soap. You
can't really find it. No, and you find that anywhere, including the
dollar store. Coast I forgot about it. I love coasts, I love
coast, the ocean, whatever thing. I've used it since the early nineties,
late eighties, I use it, and I have had women go,
oh, you smell good. I got nothing else on but the soap.
Wow. Yeah, so I that's all I That's the only thing I put
on, and then the deodorant battle over. I'm going back to aluminum.
Fucking something's gonna get so. In the nineties they had more soap commercials and
shampoo or so they had like zest est fully caught Irish Spring, the Manley
soape, Yeah, beave us a but hit me for the Manly Slope and
Beavis likes it too. But they had uh remember Lever two thousand? Yes,
yes, all your two thousand. Come on, we gotta try this
last week. You wanted to try Zest the week before you want to try
Irish spray now you want to try a leave two thousand? How much is
soap with what you got? You know? Then the colognes. Yeah,
Curve was the big colone I add to this day. I still love it.
It still smells good. If I see you like you ever go to
a bathroom in a restaurant and you got the guy going, hey, Sarah,
how are you today? I'm like, I'm well, hey, let
me help you out. I go, oh, you got Curve here?
I'll give you a dollar, yeah, because and I'll spray it out because
I still miss the smelly. Let me ask you though, when you wore
Curve and it's just like a shitty song. There's some shitty, shitty,
awful, terribly fucking shitty songs that I love, And the reason I love
them is it was the sweet spot of life. It was that time where
it brings you back to a time the song brings back in the memory.
That's why we love him. That's why there's yeah like come on Ilean by
Dexy's been brings you back, right, It brings me back to a certain
time. Curve do that for you, because there's a perfume for a woman
that does it for me obsession. Poison Okay, I've never heard of it.
Yeah, you're too young, but poison would be one that I remember.
This girl, the girl that I was meeting, uh like when I
think I took her to my prom and I remember she wore poison. Wow,
yep, And I remember I just I remember seeing the bottle or something
and whatever it just locked and it seared right in the front of my brand.
I can't remember anything else. I remember poison. Yeah. Now,
you ever have a guy come up to you and ask you what you're wearing?
No? So when I was working at w h AM, the sales
guy who you and I both know, he voices a lot of commercials.
So I went. His son had a band, and I went and watched
it, and I was talking to his wife for a while. The next
Monday, can I talk to you? Yeah, sure, Yeah, it's
gonna sound like a weirdo. But my wife was wondering. I think it's
called Fierce by Abercrobby. My wife is obsessed with that scent. I want
to who gets some after work there where? Can you get that? The
Abercromby? Still great? Okay? Yeah? Next next thing, you know,
there's like fifty year old dudes walking around like smelling like fierce at work.
I don't know, I don't know, I don't I'm too much.
I'm I'm starting to fear that I am weird in certain ways and I don't
what do you mean? Do you? What makes you? Cologne? Doesn't?
Like I haven't bought a bottle of Colonne. I know I did,
I did. I wore some lighter I always liked the lighter spray. Like.
I would go to bed bathroom beyond your yes, no bathroom, body
bath and body works, bath and body works, and there was some kind
of cheap but light sprays. No. This was a cologne though for guys.
Yeah, and it was just a light like yeah, it was okay.
Like did you ever get the magazine in the library, the Rolling Stone?
I came in everything start ye, you start putting it on? Yeah.
Well, we had a teacher in the eighth grade. We all we
would get magazines and he would make you go through and pull out all the
ads first, so sometimes they would be in there, so we would be
wiping them on each other. I remember wiping them up. This kid,
Paul Schardy was a really big kid. I remember wiping it on his back,
so you could I go this way, We're gonna know when you're coming,
right, you can smell them. So my father never wore alone,
but he had a distinct set, like a talcum powder and real print.
Right, gotta need that stuff if they have to advertise it, it's probably
not good that the hi karate shit made me laugh. That is funny.
It is very different. Uh, somebody, this is what I meant to
read last night, and there's a bunch of things I didn't get to last
night. You want to talk about give advice first or cereal for breakfast?
Advice first or cereal for breakfast? We could tackle both, all right,
well we yes, we will. Let's do Let's do cereal for breakfast.
Okay, so cereal for the for breakfast. It's something that was great when
you would have as a parent, you would call it an upside down day.
A lot of times you did that because he means cre dinner. I'm
sorry, cereal for dinner. Upside down to day. Correct, that's when
I get your father's not hope or having cereal for dinner. Yes, kids
loved it. It was out of the ordinary. We have pancakes tomorrow.
It felt special. Right. A lot of times she did it because he
had no money and it was the easiest thing. Eggs were cheaper, You
could make pancakes. You made it fun, but it was breakfast was cheaper
to make than than dinner right at steak, whatever, meat loaf, whatever
you're gonna do, uh, chicken. So this this is the CEO of
Kellogg's. He's catching some flak because he was talking on a I'm like CNBC
or something about trying to rebuild the company. It tends to be a great
destination when consumers are under pressure. So some of the things that we're doing
is first messaging. We got to reach the consumer where they are. So
we're advertising about cereal for dinner. If you think about the cost of cereal
for a family versus what they might otherwise do, that's going to be much
more affordable. The other places that we like to go is it's much more
affordable. And I don't know why people and he made it sound like so
matter of fact, but it's not a I mean, look, he's not
wrong. He's not wrong, but not wrong, but like wrong. Hey,
hey, you know what it's like. We used to go to the
Morning show boot camp, right and somebody. They'd have the panelists of four
major companies come on to give us advice if we had any questions, and
some would ask questions, so what do you do about like massive layoffs?
And it's like, hey, look, good luck man, and you would
start laughing, wait what yeah? What? Because like because they offered really
no advice, I was like, what is this oh Nia in Nashville,
Like they had like all these like CEOs or these important people in radio program
director. This is at the morning show boot campragnas, So they had a
Q and A with like the future of the business right and like in radio
guys like there were layoffs all the time, and they just kept cutting and
cutting and cutting and it never stopped. And somebody goes, you know what
am I supposed to do? My show's been reduced down there, like it's
been cutting half. You know, I don't I can't even afford a producer.
And the guy goes, well, you know the cuts aren't going to
stop, man, So hey, good luck to you, and you just
start cracking up. You and Tommy were like laughing. Everyone else is looking
back at us, and you're like, you know what though, because he's
not giving you a solution you wanted. See this tough crap, and that's
what this guy is telling you. Hey, cereal for breakfast, man.
The economy sucks. Do what you can. Kellogg's are great. The thing
is like, stop, I'm sorry, No, you're not, you're not.
You don't give me back in radio. But just that that not a
statement of the of the of the serial reminded me of that. No good
luck. Here's what I would say, though, we got to stop looking.
We got to stop looking for others to solve our problems. Yeah right,
and we have to realize, as uncomfortable as it is, whatever is
going on in your life, you had something to do with it. You
ain't look and go, well, if that person didn't do this, I
wouldn't be here if they hadn't done xt you have. I know it sounds
voodooish and all, but you do, you know, you do have a
way of controlling that. So stop looking to this guy. He's just trying
to sell fucking cereal man, that's all. It's all he's trying to do.
So And what's the greatest way to sell something. Play in your fears,
Play on your fears, Play on everybody's fears. Of nuclear holocaust,
nuclear holocaust. I love Golden Graf, but I'm just saying like that that's
what it is. And I think if we all, if you take it
step back and you try to stop looking at these can't afford vegetables. Yeah,
Raisin Bran has two scoops in every bowl. But my point is like
you gotta stop looking for others. I'm not saying solve your problems or give
you the solution. I believe where Danny and I disagree spiritually is that I
believe that we are God is in you. You've got the I'll call it.
You call it God, I'll call it infinite intelligence. This planet doesn't
I didn't get up this morning and go outside and pull a zip string to
make sure the Earth is still spinning, you know what I mean. I
don't think about it. I got up, there was sun, it was
cold today, the moon that I don't do that. Those are all important
things to keep our planet the way it is. So there has to be
a greater intelligence. It just there's no other explanation as a creator. But
I do believe it's all evolving. And I think that inside of you,
you you inherently know, you know right, And we love to tell somebody
when they're wrong and they're gonna be danned, but we don't really know.
So I just that's why I say follow your gut on all things. And
I know it's an offshoot and a little bit of a tangent from the ceial
guy, but the cereal guy is telling me something. Why don't you get
all pissed off at the serial guy? I don't understand why people get pissed
off about anything. I don't because we live in a twenty four hour news
cycle work, I know, But I mean, everyone's got to watch my
good buddy, Dan Marilla, Yes, you know, do you know my
good friend familiar with that? And Dan gets himself very twisted about things on
the news and stuff. And I'm not saying I'm not believe me. I'm
not saying I'm not saying you're wrong, but why not do you have a
permit? But what I'm saying is like I had a conversation today with the
Ukrainian uh, the gentleman from the Ukraine who did a documentary, and the
stuff he says is scary. It's very scary. It is it's very scary
what he's saying and then there's a bunch of people. But I feel like
we get bits of information and we glom onto that and it becomes our becomes
our belief, it becomes our fact. All belief is is the thought you
think over and over and over. So now all of a sudden we believe.
And I'll just bring this up as an example. The ninety three billion
dollars, whatever the amount of money is. Yeah, that's going. It's
not all a blank check, but it's not going as it's not going as
a blank check. It's going really as equipment because, as he said,
some other countries have sent things, And I go, yeah, they sent
your broken sheit goes, yeah, forty percent of the tanks they got over
there didn't work in the beginning, right, I go, yeah, but
they're decoys, is what I said to him. But and it's an interesting
conversation. But the point of it is, I believe that Republicans would vote
for this because there isn't a Republican that doesn't have knowledge of what Putin's trying
to do. According to the propaganda. Maybe I don't know entirely. This
is what this gentleman is telling me. They want to run their tanks through
Europe right to Madrid. They want to burn down Paris. They want to
that's the prefects. The whole thing with Germany that they never stopped at Munich
if they should have stopped him, and so this is the thing. So
but we don't want to put our guys there. No, So everybody is
looking at this going and in the Ukraine putin saying you were part of the
USSR. You're coming back a yeah, and Poland is coming back and this
is it. And we're talking about a guy who served in the Soviet Army
and his father as a as a Russian Jew, very Rare rose to captain
of the Soviet Army. But they all live here now why? Okay,
So that's an interesting part of the conversation. But his point made me think
like, okay, well, maybe it's smart that we're sending the money or
that well equate it to money, but equipment cost money. It's right cost
money to do that. We don't have it, so we're giving it to
you. That's something instead of putting our own soldiers there and interfering. But
the idea that we don't know this person, and I think if you talk
to even some leaders would go unpredictable dictator dangerous can get to you. Is
also saying that Alaska is Russian, is Russians and wants it back. I
haven't heard it. I don't know. I'm not reading the propaganda. I
don't speak the language, so I'm trusting in somebody else's information. He did
go there, He did do that. I think the reason that we hear,
well, yeah, because we're not. People feel like we're not taking
care of our own. But there are plenty of social services here that are
still getting money and still doing things. So I'm not sure about that.
But I think that the reason it's getting shot down is there's a lot of
stuff hidden in this bill. Yes, and that's the stuff that we don't
know and we don't fully understand. So what happens is I feel like a
lot of people here ninety three billion, well, I can't even take it.
And my Republican favorite senator shooting this down. He's not shooting it down
for the reason you think. He's not saying we shouldn't do that. I
think if you put his feet to the fire, he's gonna go, Yeah,
we got to do something to stop this guy without setting off a World
War. This is the only way we can really kind of do that.
But there's so much shit hidden in here. And oh, by the way,
all they're doing is throwing US twenty million dollars to protect the border.
We need a little bit more than that, because that's not going to do
enough. We are, you know, and we can't. We have to
have a better way of vetting this thing, so if we can find a
compromise. But we're not finding a compromise, and that's the problem. And
so what all people are hearing is Republicans have are back. They're not sending
our money to the Ukraine. And don't I don't think that that's entirely the
story. Again my opinion opinion. I'll always say between halfway between fact and
fiction. But from what I'm reading, what I'm hearing, and when I
sat across from someone who served in the Soviet army said to me that man
is unpreductile and extremely dangerous. He's also very paranoid. Yeah, well,
I mean, you know the gentleman who is just assassinated. Yes, that's
what I mean. That's one story. You got another like Washington, I'm
sorry, Wall Street Journal reporter who's still over there held reactive. So this
is the problem. And his point is like, look, they're and it,
there's no plan to stop, and they've already secured they have twenty percent
of Ukrainia or Ukraine excuse me, Ukrainia would be Ukrainium. Ukraine is under
Russian occupation. Now that's not a large it's not the majority of the country,
but slowly, slowly, slowly, And uh, you think you think
he's going to stop there, No, of course not. And that and
that is exactly what the point is. And so the rest of you know,
that's where I think. I think America is seeing this, and I
think it no matter who's in that office, something will be done there.
The reason this is happening is it's not a it's not a balance bill.
And what do they call it? Pork? There's a lot of pork in
this. There's a lot pork in this. Yeah, I mean there's also
can we find a way to fix that. I think a lot of people
on those rights I don't want to hear a guy like Schumer, our own
senator, telling us that, well, if you don't okay this bill,
your boys are gonna go fight this war. Yeah, And it's like what
about the southern border and so, and that's where like it gets tricky.
But I understand where like you're, you're, you're the person you talk to
is coming from on this Putin's got to be stopped. Well, that's all
they're saying. And he's going, Look, he'll get to you, he'll
get to anybody. Now, that to me sounds almost paranoid, right,
I like, I like my bubble, and maybe it's a naive bubble.
I don't know, but I would say, uh, I don't. I
do think that those with the I don't mean intelligence by your mind, but
the intelligence the information would probably say, yeah, we need to do something,
but this bill isn't the right thing. Adjust it. We need to
adjust it. There's got to be more give and take in this than than
what's there. And I think that's the stuff. It's atiation. But but
we don't know. But but that's not what we're hearing. That's not what's
being reported. Yes, you understand that we're just being told to talk because
on the news and most of the stuff we get is sound bites, right
or so some things are taken out of context of it. That's why I
say, now more than ever. I'm I feel like we're the most informed
misinformed people ever because there's so much information and not any of it is necessarily
a complete and utter lie. That's not true either, but some of it
taken out of context, and hear it here and her there that we're not
getting maybe the right thing. Here's a story that I'm actually I've written about
in the Times in Wayne County coming out Saturday. Merril Hodge. If I
say Merril Hodge, you know who who he is. Yeah, he played
running back for the Bears and the Steelers, and he when he when it
comes to quarterbacks of the NFL Draft that he's not a draft prognosticator, but
he knows when a quarterback isn't going to be that good. He's been pretty
good at it. He could pick the right ones and he's rarely wrong.
And he came out and said that Caleb Williams, who's supposed to be the
best quarterback coming out in the draft, sids guys like Trevor Lawrence and Andrew
Luck and John Elway meaning can't miss isn't that special and neither is the guy
behind him, Drake May. He's not saying he's going to be a bust.
He's just saying that, Hey, Bears, you're drafting first, beware,
do your due diligence on this guy, because I don't think he is
going to be the guy that you think. The media says. He's at
our Canaandigua Academy graduate. Now General Mansold of of Chicago Bears should be fired
if he doesn't trade Justin Fields and take Caleb Williams with the number one overall
pick. And I'm going, boy, that that seems a little extreme.
It does. I would think that who's to say that you couldn't find great
value in four other picks for that number one pick, right, some being
in the first round. That's what and what Merril Hodge is saying. He's
not saying. I'm not saying he's going to be a bust. What I'm
saying is he's not a slam dunk. So the Bears need to consider their
options, including Justin Fields, who's already on the roster. But this has
been taken by the media to say Meryl Hodge says that this kid's a bust,
and that's not the case. He's just saying buy or beware, you
know, be careful, right, But because everyone's got to have a hot
take, and we can't just have an original hot take. Our hot take
has to be based on somebody else's hot take. And so that's what people
are doing. And then so Meryl Hodge went on some shows and said,
look, I think he had an elite accuracy, but he realized on his
feet too much. He goes, that could be a problem when it comes
to the NFL. Because again, so to your point that we're just taking
the headline, you just take the headline and the same thing. And I
think the same thing with this, but the difference here is one is potentially
lives. But I know, I don't know. It is great, great,
and now yeah, I have trying to bring it homely. Meryl Hodge
has been right about Tim Tebow it's young and CJ Stroud he said that the
Panthers should have taken he Johnny Manzelly was righting about Johnny Manzel. So like
when Merril says something it has weight behind it and saying buyer beware, and
Drake may too was Merrily Lynch No was he f Hutton when he f Hunting
talks It's the wrong one. I was thinking of China. Think of Meryl.
That was my d Danny. Any big plans for the weekend my niece's
birthday party? Now how old she gonna be? Five? So oh,
this is fantastic, big deal. This is what is Uncle Dan getting.
I got our a couple of barbies and a I hope she's not listening because
I don't want to spoil the surprise. Yes, got a couple of barbies
and also got her a bracelet making kitchen nice. So now here's the thing.
Yeah, it's the first time I see my mother and my brother and
his kids since before Christmas. So now I got to bring Christmas presents for
the other kid, so my other kids, right, but I have to
do it in a way that stealth, no, so that my kniece doesn't
see it, so it doesn't rain on her parade. I got you.
Wow, good luck with all right? What going on? I'm gonna learn
how to edit a certain style of video with green screen in there. It's
great. Yeah, I'm very excited about that. Make sure you take a
day off in between. I probably won't. My name is Bill Moran.
