WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:04.200
We mentioned KFC running out of chicken
or whatever. I think we're all out

2
00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:08.439
of bleeps, so just under the
wire, but God forbid we get something

3
00:00:08.480 --> 00:00:15.039
else. Man. I'm uh,
everybody's got a potty mouth. And all

4
00:00:15.080 --> 00:00:20.839
of our audio cuts today, oh
except one right hold on, yeah,

5
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:27.160
no, every single one but one. Somebody is swearing like a sailor a

6
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:32.479
sailor, so poor Ross had to
dub and bleep that. So you know,

7
00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:35.600
if it ain't what you call the
show, just be nice, very

8
00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:43.759
busy, very busy this morning,
this after so many amazing videos emerged yesterday

9
00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:46.399
that I didn't even know where to
start, but I think I do because

10
00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:51.719
I was just talking about with Ross
and I'm glad because I had a lingering

11
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:55.119
question. And this is why we
do. This is why we have discussions,

12
00:00:55.159 --> 00:01:00.799
because people can provide perspectives that you
don't think about. Did you all

13
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:04.879
see the mom? Was he ten
or eleven? Of a ten year old

14
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:11.319
a boy? She's sitting in her
car, you know, filming a rant

15
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:15.640
video, which is not unusual.
That's what people do. They sit in

16
00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:21.239
their car and they film content.
And she is she's no pro filming content

17
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:30.400
because she's she only fans model,
so you know, not new to her

18
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:36.840
now. She's obviously clothed in this, but she's really upset. And she's

19
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:42.200
upset because I remember that kid I
mentioned. Apparently they can cut into your

20
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:46.359
only fans in time, and she
decides to post this insane video and I

21
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:52.959
know everyone's screaming, dps all of
that. Do I worry for the kid's

22
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:57.840
future? Yeah, I don't know
that she's being abusive sitting there and ranting

23
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:00.319
in a video, because I don't
know how much she's embellished, how much

24
00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:09.039
it's not, but she clearly does. She clearly has an interesting way of

25
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:14.639
prioritizing things, Okay, And don't
get me wrong, I understand, like,

26
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:17.840
if that's her only source of income, could be frustrated. You know,

27
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:22.560
when my mom worked, obviously,
you know, because my parents were

28
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:28.159
split up, she worked, and
and we if we cut into that and

29
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:32.080
she felt it was unnecessary, she
would she'd let us know. I remember

30
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:36.599
when I when I flipped the little
uh little dirt bike and I broke my

31
00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:39.319
arm. I called her. I
called her at work first, and she's

32
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:44.240
like, tell me, and I
didn't. I didn't do a good job

33
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:47.039
of telling her about it. And
then I saw one of our friends,

34
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:50.639
family friends, who looked at my
arm and went, oh, my gosh,

35
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:53.520
is the bone supposed to be protruding? You didn't need to know that.

36
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:57.680
And then my mom felt horrible.
But at first thing she told me

37
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.560
is put some tussin on it,
suck it up. I'll be home later.

38
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:07.599
But I don't know. Let's listen
to this. I am so,

39
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:12.800
by the way, why did you
edit a wookie into this? What do

40
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:19.680
you it's it stands on its own. We don't need a wookie edited into

41
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:25.960
this this woman's video, I am
so what if that's the thing, her

42
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:31.240
her thing that makes her stand out
on the only fans? I know that's

43
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:38.759
niche, But I have to assume
of the folks cruising that website, there's

44
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:39.800
got to be at least one.
It's like, all right, I need

45
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:46.439
a naked girl who sounds like a
wookie and then subscribe, you know,

46
00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:51.560
subscribes immediately. That's my theory.
All right. Anyway, back to this,

47
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:59.400
I am so pissy today, just
just downright monson. Oh no,

48
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:01.439
today, yeah, wow. I
had to come up here. I had

49
00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:05.400
to come up here eleven o'clock in
the afternoon. That's prime time. When

50
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:14.680
that's prime time. Okay, she's
doing at Little Winky Winky. One.

51
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:19.759
Eleven is not in the afternoon that
I'm that I'm pretty sure of. So

52
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:26.839
I'm gonna assume she means eleven AM
in the morning. How is that prime

53
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:30.279
time for shitting around pantsils at a
computer? What am I missing here?

54
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:33.839
What are you all doing during the
day? Yeah? No, she's thinking

55
00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:36.240
about it from a streamer's point of
view. So I mean, you've got

56
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:41.120
to think about the entire globe.
So actually eleven o'clock would be peak because

57
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:45.439
it's sort of like it's evening right
in the UK or in Europe, and

58
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:50.199
you get half of the United States. It's actually the best time to stream

59
00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:54.879
eleven in the afternoon somewhere around there. Yeah, run noon, Yeah,

60
00:04:55.000 --> 00:05:00.160
eleven in the afternoon. Like pervs
from the UK who are like lag On

61
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.480
and stuff like that, or like
the naked Wookie with Bulgaria or Germany or

62
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:08.000
whatever. Yet, yes, that
they're into. Imagine what the German people

63
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:12.319
are asking you to do. I
don't want to I'm gonna pass on that

64
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:15.360
one, okay, all right,
all right, So uh see, this

65
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:16.959
is like I said, this is
why extra perspectives are good because I didn't

66
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:19.439
think of that initially. I just
assumed, like, I don't want to,

67
00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:21.800
I don't want to walk down to
the sales department. Yeah no,

68
00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:25.680
No, it's not like everybody wherever
she's broadcasting from. It's the whole planet.

69
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:29.639
So all right, she's a PERV
for the entire world. Oh good

70
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:33.680
for her, Yes, yes,
but I mean I mean if you're a

71
00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:38.920
fan that pays. Yeah, I
was just gonna say, well, and

72
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:42.319
and the problem she ran into is
that everyone's you know, like started dosing

73
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:44.920
all of her stuff, but or
not dogs, they were just putting it

74
00:05:44.920 --> 00:05:51.279
out there. I heard on Twitter
that on several threads. Yeah, because

75
00:05:51.240 --> 00:05:55.800
it's a Europe makes sense, right, You're not, She's not. She's

76
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:58.920
not doing it to time out in
mirror, Mark Miramar, you know what

77
00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:02.199
I'm saying? Or uh, former
Burma right, so you gotta be core.

78
00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:06.519
I would assume those are your pockets
of money US obviously, and UK

79
00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:14.600
and western Western Europe and uh the
Japanese Chinese market has to be big too,

80
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:17.360
man, So yeah, no,
that makes sense. I'm sorry.

81
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:20.959
Anyway, what were you saying,
young lady? If you know what I

82
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:27.199
mean, we do know what the
man is So that's partly why I'm cranky.

83
00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:29.879
But I'm cranky because my child,
My child is ten. I had

84
00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:30.759
to come up to the school and
I had to pick him up. Why

85
00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:33.120
why did I have to pick this
kid up? I had to pick this

86
00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:36.120
kid up because he's a man.
Okay, he's a little man, and

87
00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:41.800
he's got a weak as stomach like
most men do. Huh. So somebody

88
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:44.720
busted ass in the library. He
threw up not one time, not two

89
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:48.879
times, but three. I ate
Rocky Mountain oysters from I uh, all

90
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:53.480
my life, so don't even tell
me about having oh stomach. Now,

91
00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:55.720
to be fair, I'm probably you
probably not who I should be going to

92
00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:58.879
battle with over putting something like that
in their mouth. But I just,

93
00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:00.720
you know, don't give me that
crap. So you got a kid,

94
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:06.519
I know, if you know,
sometimes kids get sick. I don't have

95
00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:10.800
kids. That's why I'm great at
this. I know that inherent I just

96
00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:15.800
inherently know that. So your kid
got sick times in the library. Literally,

97
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:18.240
the nurse calls and she's like,
you're gonna have to come pick up

98
00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:24.199
here shown ray cop taters vahmadad three
times and the library like that is that

99
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:30.399
concerning three? Is it like one
after another where it's all kind of considered

100
00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:32.199
part of the same. It was
it three different incidents. We know what

101
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:42.199
the kickoff incident was, but is
that concerning from a parent standpoint? Apparently

102
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.720
it was for the school because he's
you know, covering everything up. But

103
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:51.040
yeah, so they called you and
like, hey, your kids doing this,

104
00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:57.759
even though the reason stated by the
child was that his friend broke win.

105
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:01.199
I'm not going to play the rest
of her insanity, but and that's

106
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:05.079
a prompt. So she goes on
this tirade about having to go snatch her

107
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:07.680
kid up from there because it's prime
time. And again, do I think

108
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:13.639
the family services people are overreacting?
Probably a little. Now. I know

109
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:16.439
there's some people think, hey,
if you have kids in the house and

110
00:08:16.759 --> 00:08:22.680
you work in any of that,
then anything having to do with that industry,

111
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:28.519
then you shouldn't have kids. And
I think I recognize that that opinions

112
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:37.320
out there. I don't know if
that necessarily works, however, I don't

113
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:39.360
like, I don't know if she
calculated that it would go viral to the

114
00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:46.200
point where she it would financially help. And you know what, it probably

115
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:52.720
has about a bunch of people sitting
around their desk eleven am in the afternoon

116
00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:54.559
googling this chick's name trying to figure
it out. Oh, no, she's

117
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:58.240
going to profit from this, that's
what. That's the part that really chaps

118
00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:03.639
people's behind. Yeah. I think
I'm guessing that her entire delivery in the

119
00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:09.720
video is for that reason, even
the wookie, I think the entire Yeah,

120
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:13.519
the the entire delivery. It's because
she's thinking it's going to profit her

121
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:16.600
or you know, she's she's making
a video for her audience who was used

122
00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:18.200
to seeing her a certain way.
So she's posting it right to be like,

123
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:20.919
hey, this is why I'm not
being a whore on the internet today

124
00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:26.120
for you guys. Oh that's fair. And that shirt doesn't look like a

125
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:30.440
shirt you would walk into your kids'
school and am I Am I off here?

126
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:33.320
Although maybe I don't know. I
don't know. So some of the

127
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:37.039
kids walk around school and so what
do you do? All right? So

128
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:39.080
that's that's just that's just getting it
started this morning. We got so much

129
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:43.720
more to get to and it will
commence coming up here on the KCO Day

130
00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:52.240
radio program as the mayor down in
Athens Clark County, Georgia Mayor Kelly Gertz

131
00:09:52.440 --> 00:10:01.600
is his name. He was updating
folks on the the murder of the twenty

132
00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:07.480
two year old nursing students, the
apprehension of a twenty six year old illegal

133
00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:13.639
immigrant from Venezuela, who, as
we documented, had had multiple encounters a

134
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.480
variety of places, not the least
of which was being arrested after entering the

135
00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:22.600
country illegally and making his way to
New York. Caught some charges there,

136
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.159
a bench created, a bench warrant, went down to Georgia, caught some

137
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:33.720
charges there, was literally arrested on
warrants each and every time. The departments

138
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:39.440
didn't wait for the detainer request or
honor it. So I don't even I

139
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:41.960
don't even know if they look at
him anymore with some of these policies,

140
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:46.200
and he just kept doing what he
was doing, and according to authorities,

141
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:54.039
that culminated when he when he saw
this woman on the walking trail. I'm

142
00:10:54.080 --> 00:11:00.320
sure there's more backstory we're going to
learn here on what the allegations and the

143
00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:05.279
you know, the timeline, but
then reportedly drug her into the woods and

144
00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:13.559
savagely assaulted her, not just with
his own body, but with objects and

145
00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:20.159
then smashed her skull in. It's
really grewsome stuff. And so that's what

146
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:24.360
this mayor is having to do a
press conference on. Although I did see

147
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:28.120
the New York Post they ran a
headline they were getting just toasted for yesterday

148
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:33.240
or they were saying that he might
have killed her because he she started struggling

149
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:39.360
and it might have spooked him.
It really was a bad headline. And

150
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:43.720
when they were trying to get at
I have no idea. I mean,

151
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:50.720
inherently I would have said, look, if your business is violent assaults,

152
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:56.159
I think you know going into it
that the person your victim might put up

153
00:11:56.159 --> 00:12:00.360
a fight. But that's another thing. So that you know, a lot

154
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:03.240
of people found that insensitive. Well, then the mayor held his press conference,

155
00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:09.600
and I want you to I'm to
listen to this room of his own

156
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:16.399
constituents. Right, this is this
is these are the voters. As he

157
00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:20.759
starts, Mayor e splaining, I
guess is what we're gonna call it.

158
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:28.399
Just just listen to this insanity.
Liar, you a lawyer, your guilty

159
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:37.919
and all right. That is the
public reacting to this, Uh, this

160
00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:43.960
odd take. The mayor attempting to
give the most recent updates in the case,

161
00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:48.879
and you heard several protesters interrupt the
event. But in the in the

162
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:56.240
comments, he's just like he said, am I gonna read all of it?

163
00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:01.039
Here? He goes, He says, I want to say that we

164
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:05.200
center our work here in Athens Clark
County on people's humanity, and part of

165
00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:13.519
everybody's humanity is the expectation of human
dignity. And that was a quote that

166
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:18.240
he that this mayor is referring to, and what he was referencing as a

167
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:26.679
resolution that he and his cohorts passed
during Donald Trump's presidency but blamed Trump for

168
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:33.039
tensions between American citizens and illegal immigrants. So for him to lean into that

169
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:39.039
literally lean into, you know,
a resolution. And this is why I

170
00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:43.840
told you because you saw this stuff
past during Trump and where you have these

171
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:50.039
these bodies, elected bodies at a
local level, past these stupid resolutions that

172
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:54.159
had you know, there's there's no
teeth to any of it. Well,

173
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:56.720
the difference is here he found the
teeth, and the teeth was to literally

174
00:13:56.759 --> 00:14:01.919
go back to this very political thing
that they passed so that they could crap

175
00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:07.120
on a president they don't like,
and that irritated some of the constituents there

176
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:11.799
and then you and then you bring
it up at a press conference where people

177
00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:15.480
want to know, what the hell
are you going to do so that if

178
00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:20.519
this doesn't happen again? And I
look, is that reactionary to the point

179
00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:24.039
where a single mayor can't stop all
crime? Yes? But what this guy

180
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:31.639
doesn't understand is your attitude has shown
that you are You're fine with many of

181
00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:37.120
the things that got us here today, right, mayorc Is and Biden going

182
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:46.039
in and immediately undoing ninety some immigration
related things that the Trump administration had done.

183
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:48.080
And then everyone just goes, oh, well, the one thing was

184
00:14:48.120 --> 00:14:52.000
going away because COVID, Well what
about the other ninety seven? Right?

185
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:56.879
Or we're a welcoming city and then
people show up. I'm like, oh,

186
00:14:56.039 --> 00:15:01.240
we're not like that, right?
Come on? Man? I figure

187
00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:05.039
like W R. E. L
and like the McClatchy folks that just ignored

188
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:09.440
this, which in and of itself
would have been hypocritical, but actually leaned

189
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:20.759
in it. So I'm not going
to give the specifics much energy. Uh,

190
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:24.960
But I do think it's interesting in
the current political climate when a dude

191
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:33.320
went to jail for seven months for
sharing a Hillary Clinton meme which was about

192
00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:37.960
you know, voting which looked to
be parody or when to vote look to

193
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:43.039
be parody, and mirrored to a
bunch of other stuff. But I was

194
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:50.279
told that that was election interference.
I don't know how this isn't if if

195
00:15:50.320 --> 00:16:00.879
that's your definition. So some some
moonbats leftists to say, hey, let's

196
00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:10.720
create a viral comedic campaign attacking Mark
Robinson. So that's you know, they

197
00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:15.720
threw it up out there and got
billboards, got a website, and they

198
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:21.320
have they have a play on his
name, which instead of Robinson, it's

199
00:16:21.399 --> 00:16:25.080
Rottenson, right, And that's Look, if you if they want to go

200
00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:30.639
at whatever, you know, do
your thing. But the the energy of

201
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:34.960
it would make if the casual observer
perhaps think that there's another candidate. But

202
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:41.519
more so than that, some of
the quotes they use are not quotes from

203
00:16:41.639 --> 00:16:45.600
him. And look, there's a
lot of Mark Robinson quotes, even if

204
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:48.919
you want to trim the context out
that I've seen people go after him used.

205
00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:53.240
But some of these are just straight
up made up. And I guess

206
00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:57.799
my question is for ahead. This
headline from w r e O Mark Rottenson

207
00:16:57.919 --> 00:17:04.599
website uses controversial techniques to lampoon GOP
candidates. No, no, no,

208
00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:11.440
no no. Is it controversial techniques
or is it literally arguably worse than the

209
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:15.319
one off Hillary Clinton meme, because
I feel like it is because you're ascribing

210
00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:19.759
to him a bunch of stuff he
didn't say, But also you might be

211
00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:26.480
causing confusion in the mind of the
voters, So hell if I do.

212
00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:30.319
It's just getting so nasty out there, even in the primaries, man,

213
00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:37.079
but just in general at that a
time when I'm here and everyone go,

214
00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:41.599
we have to save democracy, we
have to save decency, and apparently the

215
00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:48.119
only way to accomplish that is to
be as undemocratic and as undecent as you

216
00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:56.200
could possibly muster. And I guess
at least that's across the political aisle.

217
00:17:56.519 --> 00:18:02.880
Even some of the primary stuff's getting
super nasty. You have, uh,

218
00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:07.799
whether you have buck Out and Smith, the emails I get are just insane

219
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:12.000
on that stuff. Did you see
the Mark Walker AI stuff? Yes?

220
00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:19.519
Yes, the yes? I mean
how immediate was that? Do you remember

221
00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:22.559
when your fear like, oh,
you know, in the future you have,

222
00:18:22.720 --> 00:18:26.920
But I listened to the ice.
It's such it's bad audio Like,

223
00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:29.720
it doesn't to me anyway, because
that we've talked to Mark so much.

224
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:33.960
Yeah, but I don't think it
sounds like him, right, because we've

225
00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:37.440
talked to Mark so much over the
year, right, right, Perhaps I

226
00:18:37.480 --> 00:18:40.880
guess the average person when you wouldn't
know. Maybe, But like I listened

227
00:18:40.920 --> 00:18:42.599
to that, I'm like, it
sounds like a really bad Mark Walker impression,

228
00:18:44.359 --> 00:18:45.680
right, But it doesn't. But
it's not presented as one. I

229
00:18:45.680 --> 00:18:51.759
think maybe that's what like it If
it is that in the way that people

230
00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:56.279
were putting it out, like you
should, it should one hundred percent say

231
00:18:56.319 --> 00:18:59.039
this. We think this is funny
parody of him, right right. It

232
00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:00.839
doesn't come across as it's trying to
be a parody. It's coming across as

233
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:04.440
like this is real phone call audio
or whatever. Right, Yeah. And

234
00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:07.960
if you don't know, well I
was going to get into that a little

235
00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:14.160
later, and you could I was
kind of teeing up for it. Well,

236
00:19:14.240 --> 00:19:15.039
yeah, we'll get into the detail. I want to finish this,

237
00:19:15.079 --> 00:19:18.640
but we'll get into the details of
that here. But yeah, I mean

238
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:26.279
it's just like the standard that they
use is a reasonable person and that's not

239
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:33.960
just a sanity judgment call, like
we wouldn't be a reasonable person in whether

240
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:41.400
we recognize the voice of a longtime
politician in North Carolina because we interact with

241
00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:45.400
them on a much more frequent basis, except for a certain senator who haunts

242
00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:49.200
your children's dreams. But but even
that, I could pick out his voice.

243
00:19:49.279 --> 00:19:52.400
And I know, maybe it's just
inherent what we do. Somebody just

244
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:56.480
strolling on Twitter who's you know,
doesn't really pay attention until maybe the week

245
00:19:56.519 --> 00:20:00.400
of the election. I don't I
don't know they beat that. I think

246
00:20:00.480 --> 00:20:03.119
that there are people who would think, no, that's that's the thing that

247
00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:08.559
happened. So that's where we get
dicey on this, and and then to

248
00:20:08.640 --> 00:20:18.400
see this thing which sounds far more
injurious, potentially injurious, that these individuals

249
00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:22.200
are doing, which again I don't
have I don't have a problem with lampooing

250
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:27.039
politicians. Man, I'm here for
it. I love it. But the

251
00:20:27.079 --> 00:20:33.880
difference is here is the people who
were like, oh, not a big

252
00:20:33.920 --> 00:20:38.359
deal, screamed bloody murder and literally
got a dude thrown in jail for seven

253
00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:45.319
months for a meme because that was
a bridge too far. And what I

254
00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:52.039
won't suffer is hypocrisy on that front. Either it's okay or it's not.

255
00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:56.160
Okay, and you need to have
a set set of standards why and if

256
00:20:56.200 --> 00:21:02.240
you are representing somebody to have said
something thing and you know it to be

257
00:21:02.319 --> 00:21:07.160
false, because today I am mocked
up not very well, I might add,

258
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:14.319
as Ross pointed out, if if
if that's the case, and uh,

259
00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:18.440
you do with full knowledge too,
or you were making up quotes right

260
00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:22.440
wholesale it you know what it is. It's the Sarah Palin thing. Again,

261
00:21:23.640 --> 00:21:26.720
I can see Russia. She never
said that. Tina Face said that.

262
00:21:29.119 --> 00:21:30.880
She was talking about the fact that
if you are standing in part of

263
00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:40.000
Alaska you can see Russia. Not
in Wasilla, but uh, you get

264
00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:44.319
out in the Ileutian Island chains uh
big big Diami, little dimy boom,

265
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:48.880
you're staring at Russia. Check it
out on a map. Check but work.

266
00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:52.799
And she was just talking about how
they, you know, we share

267
00:21:52.799 --> 00:21:56.680
it. She shares it, shares
a border with Russia. Think about it.

268
00:21:56.759 --> 00:22:07.599
It's the only it's the only US
state that shares a border with a

269
00:22:07.000 --> 00:22:12.799
country outside of our own hemisphere or
our own yeah, our own hemisphere.

270
00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:18.319
Like that's what she was talking about. But the other quote was much funnier,

271
00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:21.880
and it was snl and it was
the one that people used. And

272
00:22:21.920 --> 00:22:27.799
so if you're going to ascribe things
too candidates as having said them, where

273
00:22:27.839 --> 00:22:33.160
is that line? And I don't
necessarily I don't know. I tend to

274
00:22:33.160 --> 00:22:34.480
have a pretty wide view on this
stuff. But as soon as you start

275
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:38.920
throwing people in jail for memes,
or going up and trying to get a

276
00:22:38.920 --> 00:22:48.720
black forklift driver fired for a video
and then docks him and have Facebook help

277
00:22:48.799 --> 00:22:55.119
you dox him, and everything that's
going on with the attack of the political

278
00:22:55.200 --> 00:22:57.440
enemies, you see how mad everyone
is that the Supreme Court is actually going

279
00:22:57.480 --> 00:23:07.359
to hear the the Trump issue on
whether whether he has the protection of the

280
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:12.480
office or doesn't have it when it
comes to what they say was election interference,

281
00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:19.440
trying to steal the election. I
just if those are your standards,

282
00:23:19.480 --> 00:23:22.240
then I don't know how you just
say this is controversial. You should be

283
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:26.839
screaming bloody murder. It's also dumb. All right, I'll figure out on

284
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:30.119
the Mark Walker thing too. Let's
do this, Let's hit our break,

285
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:34.359
We'll be back. CaCO Day Radio
program CaCO Day Radio programs. We got

286
00:23:34.359 --> 00:23:45.880
into a whole discussion. There's lots
of different examples, but it's coming at

287
00:23:45.960 --> 00:23:48.720
us faster than I think a lot
of people thought it would, and it

288
00:23:48.759 --> 00:23:52.319
will only get better. I know
that's cliche to say, but it's true.

289
00:23:55.240 --> 00:24:00.799
It's just, you know, it's
just inherently how technology works. AI

290
00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:07.640
generated content from even a year ago
is clearly distinguishable side by side stuff generated

291
00:24:08.400 --> 00:24:12.519
now, and not just with the
Gemini stuff we're making fun of, but

292
00:24:12.559 --> 00:24:18.640
I mean the actual Hey, let's
let's put this person, especially the the

293
00:24:18.680 --> 00:24:25.720
whole issue with the AI pornography,
right, it's so convincing that people might

294
00:24:25.880 --> 00:24:32.920
think that that Hollywood starlet or I've
seen it done to political pundits, you

295
00:24:32.960 --> 00:24:36.319
know, that may be an actual
video. So when you get when it

296
00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:41.839
when it starts entering into whether it
is through the use of AI or just

297
00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:45.319
through the expenditure of a crap ton
of money, and it is being put

298
00:24:45.319 --> 00:24:51.920
out there in an effort to aid
or harm a candidate, even if the

299
00:24:51.960 --> 00:24:57.440
candidate themselves didn't. And I'm making
the air quotes because you know, the

300
00:24:57.480 --> 00:25:07.519
whole packs can't qu coordinate with candidates. Thing if if if you don't think

301
00:25:07.559 --> 00:25:14.240
that that's being done with you know, just a little bit of disconnect,

302
00:25:14.720 --> 00:25:21.559
then you don't know nothing there's a
reason that candidates will literally they'll film a

303
00:25:21.640 --> 00:25:25.119
bunch of b roll stuff, right, So it's then with their family,

304
00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:27.960
they're they're helping an old lady across
the street. Oh look, I rescued

305
00:25:27.960 --> 00:25:33.680
a cat. Whatever, And then
they'll send it over there and there's a

306
00:25:33.720 --> 00:25:36.720
clear narrative with a lot of this
stuff, and then the packs will use

307
00:25:36.759 --> 00:25:41.200
it to package ads on issues on
behalf of candidates. Did they coordinate?

308
00:25:42.559 --> 00:25:49.160
We'll let you be the judge on
that. So I see this yesterday and

309
00:25:49.319 --> 00:25:53.559
there's video, and yes, is
does it look like it's well done?

310
00:25:55.319 --> 00:26:03.119
No? That being said in it? Reportedly? Well, I got to

311
00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:11.160
turn on there. Here we go. In it, you see the Mark

312
00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:15.680
Walker in his video of something he
did. He's sitting in his car right

313
00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:21.640
because we're films videos now, and
Frank, I remember what he was talking

314
00:26:21.640 --> 00:26:25.880
about in the original video. But
actually, hang on, I think he

315
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:30.240
was talking about Yeah, he was
talking about the incident down in Georgia.

316
00:26:30.519 --> 00:26:38.440
And so then what happens is this
organization First Freedom's Foundation, So they're a

317
00:26:38.880 --> 00:26:45.359
First Amendment pack I guess. And
in it they run audio next to the

318
00:26:45.480 --> 00:26:51.200
video and it makes it and it's
made to sound like Walker's claiming to be

319
00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:57.279
in over his head. He lies, ragging about lying to people, and

320
00:26:57.359 --> 00:27:03.119
then he feels that one of his
primary opponents will win because he is more

321
00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:08.440
qualified. Now, look that was
real audio you captured of a candidate going

322
00:27:08.680 --> 00:27:11.960
ah, oh man, this is
I don't know what I'm gonna do.

323
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:15.519
I you know, crazy is the
guy I'm running against. He's much more

324
00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:21.319
qualified. Like, if that was
real, that's campaign ending stuff, right

325
00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:30.200
that lets donors know you're not serious. That's and so I sit here and

326
00:27:30.359 --> 00:27:37.440
I don't see it presented. I'm
staring at the tweet from the organization where

327
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:41.240
the video was put out, and
in it it's now deleted the tweet,

328
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:48.079
but I have a screenshot here.
In the tweet, it says the truth

329
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:52.799
was revealed by a previous Walker supporter
who got this voicemail that Walker is in

330
00:27:52.880 --> 00:28:00.039
over his head and feels Christian Castelli
will win because he is more qualified.

331
00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:04.359
So the way that it's present and
then hashtag truth matters. So the way

332
00:28:04.359 --> 00:28:11.519
that it's presented is it's it's it's
telling the person who who views it that

333
00:28:11.599 --> 00:28:15.519
the audio isn't going to line up
with that video, right, It's not

334
00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:19.640
it's it's it's provides that dividing line. So any doubts you may have had

335
00:28:19.680 --> 00:28:22.599
where you're sitting there and you're you're
seeing the video go with the audio doesn't

336
00:28:22.599 --> 00:28:26.440
line up. If you read the
body of the post, it tells you

337
00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:33.519
that this is a voicemail that a
supporter got and then felt bad about I

338
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:37.480
guess, and then shared and and
that's why they're running. So yeah,

339
00:28:37.519 --> 00:28:45.039
an effort is being made to deflect
from any visual problems. So I don't

340
00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:53.559
know how you argue that that's parody
or lampooning or quote controversial techniques. That's

341
00:28:53.599 --> 00:29:03.160
from the w R a L headline
and the Mark Robinson stuff, and I

342
00:29:03.200 --> 00:29:10.640
don't I don't know that anyone want
to be held accountable, but that's what

343
00:29:10.680 --> 00:29:15.200
it. I'm not going to play
it because again I gave you an accro

344
00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:18.200
rendition of what it was, and
it's out there. You want to go

345
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:26.279
hashtag and see poll, you'll find
it. But I don't know. And

346
00:29:26.319 --> 00:29:33.559
then I saw people accusing Mark of
doing it to create controversy, so you

347
00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:36.680
know, like forty chess stuff.
So everyone's just out of their damn minds.

348
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:40.640
That's the only that's the only conclusion
I can come to on this stuff.

349
00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:45.119
But yeah, now that I now
that I see the folks who are

350
00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:52.839
most irritated about this and demanding jail
time for me making all of a sudden

351
00:29:52.839 --> 00:30:00.759
start referring to these things as controversial
techniques? Is is re really rich to

352
00:30:00.839 --> 00:30:03.839
me? All right? Eight eight
eight nine three four seven eight seven four

353
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:08.599
eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seven four Because you know, sometimes

354
00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:15.400
people, I says, sometimes the
stuff is clearly for entertainment. What was

355
00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:18.839
the example we're talking about off the
oh, the Alex Jones thing, right,

356
00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:25.640
I don't think it's it injures or
doesn't injure Alex Jones that somebody did

357
00:30:25.640 --> 00:30:27.680
an AI of him reading Lord of
the Rings right, Well, yeah,

358
00:30:27.799 --> 00:30:30.559
especially when you sell it as,
hey, this is AI of Elex Jones

359
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:33.960
doing Lord of the Rings right right. But even if you said it was

360
00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:36.960
him, I don't know that it
would change people's opinion on him, Do

361
00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:41.119
you know what I'm saying? Because
it's it's Alex Jones. Like the stuff

362
00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:42.880
we have in the computer is amazing. Here is by the way, if

363
00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:48.240
you haven't heard it, here is
Alex Jones reading Lord of the Rings AI

364
00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:51.920
style or an AI doing it Hi, Alex Jones. Here we find ourselves

365
00:30:51.960 --> 00:30:56.319
in the Shires. A crossfaited Sam
wise Gamgi has stumbled his way to bag

366
00:30:56.559 --> 00:31:00.440
end. Sam takes a swan dive
into a flower bed as a relax play,

367
00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:03.640
but then discovers that the birthday boy
Bilbo Baggins isn't alone. Gandalf,

368
00:31:03.680 --> 00:31:07.640
the gray who hates globalists, is
inside the Hobbit hole. Suddenly Gandalf notices

369
00:31:07.680 --> 00:31:11.960
Sam in a huge way. When
the Wizard accuses the young Hobbit of eavesdropping,

370
00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:15.519
Sam, still sufficiently trashed from the
party, replies, I ain't been

371
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:18.759
dropping no eves, sir, honest. Now let's just take a pause here.

372
00:31:19.279 --> 00:31:26.599
Unrelated to the story, I can't
stand these demon vampires running the country.

373
00:31:26.839 --> 00:31:30.720
All right, good morning everybody.
It is seven oh six here on

374
00:31:30.759 --> 00:31:37.640
the Cacoday radio program. Yeah,
test to see if it's AI. It's

375
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:41.279
like Mark Walker's calling the show right
now. His ears were his ears were

376
00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:45.319
buzzing or tingling or whatever that's saying
is ross? Did do we know if

377
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:51.759
that's AI or is it Mark?
Do we have ask it to create an

378
00:31:51.880 --> 00:31:53.960
image of a white family and if
he refuses, hang up on him.

379
00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:59.359
Okay, because it's Google Gemini.
All right, no, anyway, all

380
00:31:59.400 --> 00:32:02.559
right, I'm just talking about this
Mark, how you doing this morning?

381
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:07.119
If it is you, what's up? Well? I was going to tell

382
00:32:07.160 --> 00:32:08.680
you'se a deep sake voice, but
it kind of sounds a little bit like

383
00:32:08.720 --> 00:32:13.039
me on anyway, So I don't
know how that would translate on radio without

384
00:32:13.039 --> 00:32:15.680
the video. We're doing great,
hope you and Ross are doing wonderful.

385
00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:20.559
Uh yeah, but you know,
also people are making we're are I don't

386
00:32:20.559 --> 00:32:23.240
know. We don't know if it's
AI generated or somebody who's doing a bad

387
00:32:23.240 --> 00:32:30.519
impersonation of you. But what is
clear to me is that if you read

388
00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:34.880
the body of the tweet, it
is clearly one presented in a way that

389
00:32:34.920 --> 00:32:39.960
it is you. But also it
provides cover for anyone who would notice that

390
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:44.000
your lips don't jive with the voice, because you would say, oh,

391
00:32:44.079 --> 00:32:46.839
well that's a voicemailer plane And they're
just using a picture of Mark's video to

392
00:32:47.799 --> 00:32:53.960
remind me what he looks like.
How's that working out for you? The

393
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:59.319
hell's going on? Yeah? Well, you know this started a couple of

394
00:32:59.319 --> 00:33:04.400
months ago. The first ones were
a little bit more middle school, if

395
00:33:04.440 --> 00:33:07.440
you will, they had pictures and
videos of Jim and Tammy say Baker,

396
00:33:07.440 --> 00:33:12.880
and they would have my wife and
myself, you know, where it was

397
00:33:12.880 --> 00:33:15.000
actually Jim and Tammy Fay talking about
the infidelity, but would have our names

398
00:33:15.079 --> 00:33:19.160
underneath it. And I did reach
out to the opponent that said, look,

399
00:33:19.720 --> 00:33:22.160
as an opponent, I'm fair game. Do what you got to do,

400
00:33:22.279 --> 00:33:25.240
but it's usually taboo to bring the
wife or family into these kinds of

401
00:33:25.240 --> 00:33:29.359
things. So that kind of went
away, and then it started building back

402
00:33:29.440 --> 00:33:31.920
up, and then a couple of
days ago was what kind of shocked us.

403
00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:35.519
All. There's two of them.
There's one that you're referencing, and

404
00:33:35.519 --> 00:33:40.440
then there's another one where they put
the caption over my lips where it looks

405
00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:45.279
a little bit more authentic, I
guess if you will. But it's a

406
00:33:45.319 --> 00:33:50.119
different day. It's a different day
that you're seeing now people doing these kinds

407
00:33:50.160 --> 00:33:53.440
of things. Well, and you
know, the web or the account to

408
00:33:53.440 --> 00:34:00.799
put it up is identified as a
first was the first Amendment pack. So

409
00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:08.239
I mean candidates can't coordinate with packs, right, they cannot? That is

410
00:34:08.320 --> 00:34:15.199
that is against yes, So I'm
assuming your opponent said I had nothing to

411
00:34:15.199 --> 00:34:22.159
do with this, and well,
the question is if they didn't have anything

412
00:34:22.159 --> 00:34:27.199
to do with it and it's not
provable, I mean, the question becomes

413
00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:32.039
is is how closely do you think
candidates do coordinate? And I gave an

414
00:34:32.039 --> 00:34:37.039
example earlier of like the b roll
stuff. Because it's not your first rodeo.

415
00:34:37.079 --> 00:34:39.559
You served in Congress for what three
terms? Right, you said you've

416
00:34:39.599 --> 00:34:45.079
been surrounded by the swamp? Does
it happen? Does it not happen?

417
00:34:45.519 --> 00:34:50.079
And if it is, how does
it happen? Okay, well you give

418
00:34:50.119 --> 00:34:52.880
us a little behind the scenes here. Okay, So you have for for

419
00:34:53.119 --> 00:34:57.760
federal campaigns and campaigns that are on
national level, sometimes maybe state, but

420
00:34:58.119 --> 00:35:00.320
on the federal level, where you're
talking about a great deal of money,

421
00:35:00.320 --> 00:35:05.519
sometimes millions of dollars, sometimes tens
of millions of dollars. There's what they

422
00:35:05.519 --> 00:35:10.800
call a firewall between that's supposed to
be built between the campaign and whatever pack

423
00:35:10.920 --> 00:35:15.480
might be supporting. You could be
multiple packs. There's not to be any

424
00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:19.480
coordination for exactly. The candidate cannot
call and say, look, I saw

425
00:35:19.519 --> 00:35:22.000
this direct mail piece that you put
out on me, could you say it

426
00:35:22.039 --> 00:35:24.599
this way? Or how much are
you spending on this? That's illegal?

427
00:35:25.239 --> 00:35:30.360
Sometimes from what I understand, and
guys have talked to I think there's a

428
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:34.960
little bit of layover there as far
as helping the guide exactly how that money

429
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:38.960
might be spent, whether it's attacking
opponent or whether it's a piece that's promoting

430
00:35:39.400 --> 00:35:44.280
your campaign or your background or your
record. It does happened a lot.

431
00:35:44.719 --> 00:35:47.039
I think where the investigation is now, I think they're really looking into this

432
00:35:47.119 --> 00:35:52.760
for the first time. Two names
have surface that have contributed to this one

433
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:57.960
opponent's campaign that are actually connected with
it. So it kind of makes you

434
00:35:58.119 --> 00:36:02.559
wonder, is there more to the
story here without having the full evidence yet,

435
00:36:02.559 --> 00:36:07.559
we're kind of remaining its focused on
where we need to be, which

436
00:36:07.599 --> 00:36:09.760
is winning this seat and going in
and fighting to secure the border, which

437
00:36:09.800 --> 00:36:14.119
is the number one thing in the
country right now. That's so so this

438
00:36:14.280 --> 00:36:17.360
was designed to be a distraction.
We're gonna We're gonna let the stories and

439
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:22.320
the legal and the people that explore
the legal options that are necessary. We're

440
00:36:22.320 --> 00:36:24.480
gonna try to stay focused on what
we're doing here in central North Carolina.

441
00:36:25.159 --> 00:36:30.679
The example that I gave earlier was
let's say that you wanted ads, you

442
00:36:30.760 --> 00:36:35.000
wanted packs to run ads about the
border you mentioned the border, let's just

443
00:36:35.000 --> 00:36:37.440
go with the border. And if
your campaign went and shot a bunch of

444
00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:43.880
b roll of you walking along the
border, shaking hands with border patrol guards,

445
00:36:44.719 --> 00:36:47.800
you know all of that, and
then you send that out right,

446
00:36:47.920 --> 00:36:52.119
here's stuff you can use or make
available on your website, as candidates do,

447
00:36:53.360 --> 00:36:57.159
and then the packs pick it up
because you know, wink wink,

448
00:36:57.239 --> 00:37:00.360
nod, nod, that's where I
time to see this stuff, because I

449
00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:02.199
see the b roll stuff that people
post, and then all of a sudden,

450
00:37:02.239 --> 00:37:07.159
it's a commercial for a pack friendly
to a candidate, and that in

451
00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:12.559
and of itself sounds like it's definitely
not within the spirit of what was hoping

452
00:37:12.599 --> 00:37:16.719
to be prevented, not within the
spirit, but that's exactly what they do

453
00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:22.119
to be able to. The campaign
puts out something and then the pack simply

454
00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:23.440
says, well, we didn't we
didn't coordinate with him. This was in

455
00:37:23.480 --> 00:37:29.239
the public domain, so we just
grabbed it from there. But the average

456
00:37:29.320 --> 00:37:34.159
person or maybe even the train die
when you see that, it does not

457
00:37:34.280 --> 00:37:36.960
register on you that this is coming
from a pack. That's why it's very

458
00:37:36.960 --> 00:37:39.559
small print. You actually think this
is the campaign sending it out, which

459
00:37:39.599 --> 00:37:43.800
is what the what the pack is
trying to make it look like at the

460
00:37:43.920 --> 00:37:49.679
end of the day. Okay,
what if you say that they're investigating this.

461
00:37:49.800 --> 00:37:53.000
I was given some other examples with
the Mark Rottenson thing. Are you

462
00:37:53.000 --> 00:37:59.440
familiar with the Mark Robinson parody?
I have not seen that, Okay,

463
00:37:59.440 --> 00:38:01.960
but it's got billboards and a really
nice website, and in it they're attributing

464
00:38:02.039 --> 00:38:07.840
quotes of Marx, generally out of
conduct or out of context, but quotes.

465
00:38:07.960 --> 00:38:12.280
And then there's other quotes that attributed
to him that are not quotes of

466
00:38:12.320 --> 00:38:15.400
his and it's under their saying,
it's under the spirit of lampooning. And

467
00:38:15.440 --> 00:38:20.480
I'm reminded of the Sarah Pale and
Tina Fey thing with I can see Russia,

468
00:38:20.519 --> 00:38:24.400
Yes, and it's a powerful tool. And I see the very same

469
00:38:24.480 --> 00:38:30.039
media that applauded when a dude got
seven months in prison for sending a meme

470
00:38:30.119 --> 00:38:37.000
out, referring to it as controversial
techniques. So like, even in the

471
00:38:37.039 --> 00:38:39.960
evaluation of this, and so my
question to you as a candidate, should

472
00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:45.119
people be able to lampoon you?
And where is the line on that the

473
00:38:45.159 --> 00:38:50.280
truth? The truth is yes,
yes, they should be able to lampoon

474
00:38:51.079 --> 00:38:55.199
candidates, members of Congress, elected
officials. I know that made the brides

475
00:38:55.239 --> 00:38:59.440
people. I think that's part of
your first the first Amendment, because your

476
00:38:59.480 --> 00:39:04.840
your freedom is spach. It's always
been look at some of the lampooning,

477
00:39:04.880 --> 00:39:07.199
if you will, in the early
cartoons or or founding Fathers and some of

478
00:39:07.199 --> 00:39:10.559
the things back then, that was
just part of it. I think it

479
00:39:10.639 --> 00:39:15.920
crosses the line with a technology where
you think you're watching a candidate actually say

480
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:21.559
these words. I think it's in
the law in this AI is early on,

481
00:39:21.679 --> 00:39:25.079
but they've already addressed it some that's
where you have some legal issues and

482
00:39:25.119 --> 00:39:29.880
it crosses the line. And I
think that's the difference. But as far

483
00:39:29.920 --> 00:39:32.559
as being fair game, man,
when you sign up for this, you

484
00:39:32.599 --> 00:39:36.519
better put your big pants on because
this is part of it and it should

485
00:39:36.519 --> 00:39:39.079
be. That's one of the ways
that people can hold their elected officials accountable.

486
00:39:40.400 --> 00:39:45.159
Yeah, but it's only going to
get worse, right, So even

487
00:39:45.159 --> 00:39:49.599
if that was somebody who it wasn't
a computer generated voice. It was just

488
00:39:49.639 --> 00:39:53.199
somebody doing an impression right of you
or any candidate for that matter. Eventually,

489
00:39:53.360 --> 00:39:55.760
and we're actually here now, I
mean, we're to the point where

490
00:39:55.800 --> 00:40:00.039
if I wanted to, if I
wanted to make you say something, and

491
00:40:00.039 --> 00:40:02.599
and I had access to AI to
do it, it wouldn't be that hard.

492
00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:07.920
You don't have to be a graphic
designer, so you could, I

493
00:40:07.920 --> 00:40:12.079
guess you could argue that the laws
they're currently in place, it's about enforcement,

494
00:40:12.280 --> 00:40:15.920
right, That's really like, that's
that's how it breaks down on so

495
00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:19.880
many issues in society. You don't
think there needs to be more laws,

496
00:40:20.239 --> 00:40:22.920
is what I'm asking. No,
no, no, no, I don't

497
00:40:22.960 --> 00:40:27.719
think so. I enforce what we
have. There's some very clear, strong

498
00:40:27.800 --> 00:40:30.239
language I think it came out in
twenty twenty dealing with these kinds of things

499
00:40:30.239 --> 00:40:35.159
that if you do this then then
that's it's a federal violation of the law.

500
00:40:36.639 --> 00:40:38.679
Yeah, I don't I'm not advocating
for any additional law. I'm not

501
00:40:38.760 --> 00:40:42.760
whining about it. It is what
it is. We're going to share,

502
00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:47.360
as we have on our social media, exactly what some of these packs are

503
00:40:47.360 --> 00:40:51.480
trying to do. In fact,
they spent over one point one I think

504
00:40:51.480 --> 00:40:54.199
one now closing in a one point
one and a half million dollars just attacking

505
00:40:54.239 --> 00:40:59.199
that's right here in the triad,
which you know that's a design that you're

506
00:40:59.400 --> 00:41:04.719
that you're not wanted by these DC
superpacks that should be part of the process.

507
00:41:04.800 --> 00:41:07.599
And so we're we're we're holding her
on and but yeah, as far

508
00:41:07.599 --> 00:41:09.599
as additional lulls, no, let's
let's let's fight this thing out. Let's

509
00:41:09.639 --> 00:41:13.800
keep moving, Okay, and thank
you for calling this morning, because now

510
00:41:13.880 --> 00:41:15.239
Ross can cut up all your voice
stuff. And wait till you hear what

511
00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:19.639
you're gonna say later, Mark,
it'll be crazy. Well we're still saying

512
00:41:19.639 --> 00:41:22.599
it. We're still checking to see
if his name surfaces, because I know

513
00:41:22.639 --> 00:41:24.599
where he is on this AI step
and I think he's pretty in depth on

514
00:41:24.679 --> 00:41:28.199
it. Oh yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, all right, Oh

515
00:41:28.280 --> 00:41:31.119
thanks thanks for calling in on this, Mark, appreciate him. All right,

516
00:41:31.199 --> 00:41:34.679
kaye bye bye? All right,
there you go. Uh so,

517
00:41:35.079 --> 00:41:37.599
yeah, everything's just h we got
day, we got, you know,

518
00:41:38.199 --> 00:41:43.199
a week to go primary and then
the whole general. Yeah, buckle in

519
00:41:43.360 --> 00:41:46.119
kids seven sixteen to hang on.
And in the few short minutes there of

520
00:41:46.159 --> 00:41:51.360
our break, I think I solved
these you know, I try to be

521
00:41:51.400 --> 00:41:54.239
a problem solver. It's what we
do here on the show. I think

522
00:41:54.519 --> 00:42:04.519
rather than campaigns, uh naked me
fights for office, but not both of

523
00:42:04.559 --> 00:42:07.760
them. One skin's one shirts.
They can flip a coin or something,

524
00:42:07.320 --> 00:42:12.119
and then we just solve all our
problems, because holy crap, did you

525
00:42:12.199 --> 00:42:22.400
see this? Where's the police?
You defunded him? Still, this is

526
00:42:22.480 --> 00:42:31.440
what you do with our hero Vernus
boor Walls, right. Yeah, Although

527
00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:37.639
admittedly that's a little different than some
of the videos I've seen from what Venice

528
00:42:37.639 --> 00:42:43.320
Beach has turned into. In the
video, you see what do you think

529
00:42:43.400 --> 00:42:47.559
naked shit goes one hundred pounds?
Maybe I can't. She's she's much shorter

530
00:42:47.559 --> 00:42:52.039
than her opponent, very very skinny. I'd like to know what her diet

531
00:42:52.159 --> 00:43:00.800
is, although I can guess,
and it's you know, methy. So

532
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:07.519
anyway, she is stark naked and
another woman who is easily twice her size.

533
00:43:07.119 --> 00:43:15.519
The video shows them in where the
battle has begun, and what's crazy

534
00:43:15.800 --> 00:43:22.679
is the woman with clothes on.
It appears that she has like an old

535
00:43:22.760 --> 00:43:29.599
mace in her hand, which is
I don't Maybe that's preferred because of how

536
00:43:29.639 --> 00:43:31.920
California is falcon sealk carry. Maybe
people have to get maces. I don't

537
00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:36.840
know. But what's even crazier,
like a moment later then they both have

538
00:43:37.000 --> 00:43:43.760
maces and even though you think there's
no way crazy naked chick is winning this

539
00:43:43.840 --> 00:43:46.719
thing. All of a sudden,
the tables get turned and now she's dual

540
00:43:46.760 --> 00:43:50.880
wielding the maces. Because it looks
like the other one, I just throws

541
00:43:50.960 --> 00:43:52.559
the thing at her, and again, I don't know if they're maces or

542
00:43:52.599 --> 00:43:55.559
a stick with barbed wire on the
end. It's hard to tell. But

543
00:43:57.320 --> 00:44:04.440
didn't see that coming. And a
reminder at discount the the super almost superhuman

544
00:44:04.559 --> 00:44:08.599
power of crazy, because boy,
the tables turned real quick on that one.

545
00:44:10.719 --> 00:44:17.639
But you know that'd be far more
entertaining than all all this campaign stuff

546
00:44:19.320 --> 00:44:27.320
that that we that we talk about. Well, the videos blurred so and

547
00:44:27.679 --> 00:44:30.840
some of you might, I guess
maybe that makes you disappointed, but you

548
00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:36.480
gotta watch it. And so tweet
that out at Casey on on the radio,

549
00:44:37.519 --> 00:44:40.280
on the on the Twitter there,
Ross, are you like me?

550
00:44:40.480 --> 00:44:45.000
You thought there's no way the naked
chicks winning when he first started that because

551
00:44:45.000 --> 00:44:49.119
she looked down. She looked down
for the count. Man. Yeah,

552
00:44:49.239 --> 00:44:55.000
I didn't have her winning that dual
wheel twenty pounds? Man, what's that?

553
00:44:55.039 --> 00:44:58.840
She's like twenty pounds? Yeah,
that's what I'm saying, Like she's

554
00:44:58.840 --> 00:45:01.599
one hundred pounds. I'd be surp. I did not see that outcome.

555
00:45:01.679 --> 00:45:07.559
But it's California, man, and
they, you know, the Florida of

556
00:45:07.639 --> 00:45:13.000
the West, for stuff like this
arguably their own fault. So there it

557
00:45:13.039 --> 00:45:16.480
was yesterday at the lake. I
was just relax and I know, I

558
00:45:16.519 --> 00:45:20.280
was trying to, you know,
relax a little bit and decompress. And

559
00:45:20.320 --> 00:45:23.119
you will not believe what came out
of the lake. A medieval mace.

560
00:45:23.480 --> 00:45:27.920
Oh my gosh. Yeah. I
posted the comment on your uh yeah,

561
00:45:28.000 --> 00:45:30.440
yeah, on your tweet yesterday on
the Twitter. So there it is in

562
00:45:30.480 --> 00:45:34.599
the grass. Yeah, that's weird
because that's like you found, like you

563
00:45:34.599 --> 00:45:37.519
had three when you get three swords
already and now a mace. Right,

564
00:45:37.559 --> 00:45:39.599
And some people are saying is because
I'm the chosen one and I listened it

565
00:45:39.599 --> 00:45:42.480
was windy, so you never know
what's going to come out of the lake.

566
00:45:43.559 --> 00:45:45.800
Yeah, that's not really how that
works. But I mean sometimes it

567
00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:49.800
is dangerous. Got ice on lake, so that can get thrown on the

568
00:45:49.840 --> 00:45:52.760
shore. And then there's this I
can't remember that the term is, but

569
00:45:52.800 --> 00:45:58.159
when the water temperature literally turns over
in lakes. You see it more up

570
00:45:58.199 --> 00:46:01.719
in the north when they where they
freeze. But I've never seen metallic objects

571
00:46:01.960 --> 00:46:06.800
rise. It's usually just you know, weeds and stuff. So good for

572
00:46:06.840 --> 00:46:13.239
you, man. I did see
one comment on it where they were trying

573
00:46:13.239 --> 00:46:15.119
to like, is that the Germanic
mace? Or it's too small? So

574
00:46:16.559 --> 00:46:20.800
uh do you know? Uh?
Y, I looked at a lake mace.

575
00:46:21.559 --> 00:46:24.119
Oh it's an enchanted lake mace.
All right, Well, what are

576
00:46:24.119 --> 00:46:29.320
you gonna do? Is h what's
it imbued with? Is it fire?

577
00:46:29.960 --> 00:46:34.760
Supreme supreme executive power? Oh that's
okay. That's not a class in the

578
00:46:35.119 --> 00:46:38.400
Diablo game, but apparently it is
in real life. But yeah, I

579
00:46:38.400 --> 00:46:43.840
go see all that insanity. We
have it for you at Casey on the

580
00:46:44.199 --> 00:46:51.039
Radio Aco DA radio program. Remember
the Wendy's story, we talked about where

581
00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:59.159
the CEO of Wendy's, he's on
a call with investors, and he was

582
00:46:59.239 --> 00:47:07.519
talking about new digital boards that would
allow essentially price adjustments during peak times,

583
00:47:07.639 --> 00:47:13.599
right surge pricing as most people refer
to it. And I'm mincing words a

584
00:47:13.599 --> 00:47:16.920
little because wait to hear their update. And we talked about it, and

585
00:47:17.239 --> 00:47:24.519
all of the internet did and everybody, even Jeff gave us some flavor from

586
00:47:24.559 --> 00:47:29.440
other radio stations he does business reports
on, and it was not being well

587
00:47:29.480 --> 00:47:38.400
received there either. Even though a
lot of industries use surge pricing ride sharing

588
00:47:38.440 --> 00:47:46.599
services, hotels, airlines, tickets, well, that's not what they meant,

589
00:47:46.960 --> 00:47:52.880
according to Wendy's No. In fact, they said, first off,

590
00:47:53.000 --> 00:47:58.880
they didn't say surge pricing, and
that's I guess technically true. They referred

591
00:47:58.880 --> 00:48:05.880
to it as dynamic pricing, but
then went on to use an example that

592
00:48:06.159 --> 00:48:10.119
is surge pricing. Whether you call
it dynamic pricing, it doesn't matter,

593
00:48:10.480 --> 00:48:19.559
it's what happens. Then the example
that was used by the CEO to this,

594
00:48:19.679 --> 00:48:22.519
here we go to highlight how the
experiment would work. Tanner that's his

595
00:48:22.639 --> 00:48:27.960
last name, suggested the price of
an item could go up by as much

596
00:48:28.000 --> 00:48:32.239
as a dollar during peak lunch and
dinner hours and have the increase reflected in

597
00:48:32.280 --> 00:48:37.159
the digital menus the company will use
to constantly update the exact cost. That

598
00:48:37.320 --> 00:48:42.840
is literally what was explained to investors. So whether they call it serge or

599
00:48:42.920 --> 00:48:46.000
dynamic is fine. But then they're
like, nah, we didn't mean that.

600
00:48:46.519 --> 00:48:53.880
What we meant is it will allow
us to let's see here, here

601
00:48:53.880 --> 00:48:57.920
we go. The clarification issue from
Wendy said One, they never used the

602
00:48:58.000 --> 00:49:01.480
term surge pricing. Two they say
the new menu boards will make price changes

603
00:49:01.599 --> 00:49:07.760
on the fly possible, and that
they only ever plan to use this feature

604
00:49:07.920 --> 00:49:15.599
for deals or discounts. So if
on you know, tomorrow's the first day

605
00:49:16.199 --> 00:49:21.000
of March, right, so if
they have a if Wendy's going to do

606
00:49:21.000 --> 00:49:23.519
a special where they're you know,
their number one is a dollar off for

607
00:49:23.559 --> 00:49:25.960
the month of March or whatever,
you know, whatever the special is,

608
00:49:28.119 --> 00:49:30.719
rather than an employee having to go
and I guess make the changes. We're

609
00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:35.679
using the little letters or what you
know, the little slide things they have

610
00:49:35.840 --> 00:49:38.639
for their menu boards. Uh,
it could just float. Somebody just push

611
00:49:38.639 --> 00:49:45.039
a button at each Q and all
the Wendy's menus will update. And he

612
00:49:45.079 --> 00:49:50.760
says that because he thinks we're stupid. The fact is you put it out

613
00:49:50.840 --> 00:49:54.079
there man. In the same way, remember BMW floated the subscription model for

614
00:49:54.199 --> 00:50:00.719
things like heated seats, and with
the you know, the way that was

615
00:50:00.760 --> 00:50:05.400
going to work was BMW was they
rather than not. You know, if

616
00:50:05.440 --> 00:50:09.159
you go to buy a new BMW
and you opt for the trim package that

617
00:50:09.280 --> 00:50:13.480
has the heated seats, then your
car would be built out with it,

618
00:50:13.960 --> 00:50:16.039
and if you didn't, then they
wouldn't put it on there and you wouldn't

619
00:50:16.079 --> 00:50:21.559
have to pay for whatever that cost
is. BMW said what they wanted to

620
00:50:21.599 --> 00:50:27.440
do is they basically wanted to include
these features, these premium options features,

621
00:50:27.440 --> 00:50:34.320
so heated or cooled seats, they
have a cruise control, proprietary cruise control

622
00:50:34.360 --> 00:50:39.239
on BMW's a couple other things.
And if at any point the consumer who

623
00:50:39.280 --> 00:50:43.559
owned the car, or perhaps the
person who bought the car next time,

624
00:50:43.639 --> 00:50:50.840
wanted to turn them on, they
could pay a monthly subscription price and that

625
00:50:50.880 --> 00:50:53.239
went over like a lead balloon.
So you know, don't act like you

626
00:50:53.280 --> 00:50:58.199
didn't put it out there, dude, because the example that you used was

627
00:50:58.280 --> 00:51:04.320
not a deal. It was you
saying, if we wanted an item to

628
00:51:04.400 --> 00:51:07.559
be as much as one dollar up
during peak lunch or dinner hours, then

629
00:51:07.800 --> 00:51:13.440
we could constantly update the exact cost. You're just reacting to the fact that

630
00:51:13.480 --> 00:51:16.519
people went this sucks, and look
who didn't tell you it sucks. This

631
00:51:16.920 --> 00:51:23.119
is a room full of investors because
they're probably thinking this will make us more

632
00:51:23.159 --> 00:51:30.599
money, right, so that's I
understand their motivation, but own it.

633
00:51:30.760 --> 00:51:32.280
That's all you know, that's all
I want, just own it. But

634
00:51:32.559 --> 00:51:36.239
again now they're saying, now,
no, no, it wasn't that,

635
00:51:36.360 --> 00:51:39.440
it was this other thing, and
it just allows us to implement deals faster.

636
00:51:40.880 --> 00:51:45.039
So if you're buying that, fine, But that is the official clarification

637
00:51:45.199 --> 00:51:51.039
from Wendy's on on that story that
we did. All right, eight eight

638
00:51:51.119 --> 00:51:54.079
eight nine three four seven eight seven
four. We'll be chatting with Steven Kent

639
00:51:54.480 --> 00:52:00.960
coming up here at eight oh five. We got a lot of stuff to

640
00:52:01.000 --> 00:52:10.519
get into with him. But I
do want to touch on the Miami Heralds

641
00:52:12.320 --> 00:52:15.800
who did no research. And when
I say no research, I don't mean

642
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:19.559
they didn't check in with like other
parts of the country. I mean like

643
00:52:19.920 --> 00:52:23.320
they obviously they they don't even have
a clear view on what happens within their

644
00:52:23.360 --> 00:52:29.840
own state. They just let the
wope take over man and so they wrote

645
00:52:29.840 --> 00:52:34.119
that possibly the dumbest op ed you
could, you could muster out of Miami,

646
00:52:34.800 --> 00:52:38.079
because of course, they wanted to
make it a big racial issue rather

647
00:52:38.159 --> 00:52:45.239
than recognizing how spring break is handled
not just in South Beach, not just

648
00:52:45.360 --> 00:52:51.320
whatever has them butt hurt, but
literally the other communities, including those in

649
00:52:51.360 --> 00:52:57.039
Florida. Redneck Riviera looking at you, which already do the things that the

650
00:52:57.079 --> 00:53:00.639
city of Miami, Miami Beach,
I should say, is plan on doing.

651
00:53:00.159 --> 00:53:02.480
But if you, you know,
if you can turn it into a

652
00:53:02.519 --> 00:53:07.039
really divisive issue, then by by
all means, go with that absolutely.

653
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:16.119
And speaking of the woke stuff,
interesting little something from Duke's medical school and

654
00:53:16.559 --> 00:53:22.320
some videos that I previously it looks
like they were quite proud of, which

655
00:53:22.320 --> 00:53:28.880
have now been memory hold. And
this was part of a larger thread and

656
00:53:28.519 --> 00:53:32.559
and a series of stories that was
done by Daily Wire and Ben Shapiro,

657
00:53:35.320 --> 00:53:38.599
and it it went, they went
out and they didn't have to look very

658
00:53:38.599 --> 00:53:44.400
hard because again this stuff was literally
posted on their websites. In many instances,

659
00:53:45.440 --> 00:53:52.519
are decisions medical decisions being made based
on what is best for the patient

660
00:53:53.719 --> 00:53:59.599
or are they being made for other
reasons? And if they are being made

661
00:53:59.639 --> 00:54:05.679
for other reasons, what are they
and what impact will that have on patient

662
00:54:05.760 --> 00:54:08.280
care? Those are legitimate? Those
are I think those are legitimate questions,

663
00:54:08.360 --> 00:54:12.599
especially when you have people on the
record, and we'll play some audio coming

664
00:54:12.679 --> 00:54:16.639
up here in the next segment.
You have people on the record explaining why

665
00:54:16.679 --> 00:54:22.920
they're making certain choices. And it
was Duke Duke. And then Wake Forest.

666
00:54:22.039 --> 00:54:27.400
You had the student at wake Forest
who joked, they said they were

667
00:54:27.480 --> 00:54:39.360
joking about missing a vein intentionally or
accidentally air quotes because they became irritated with

668
00:54:39.480 --> 00:54:45.320
the politics of a particular patient.
So you're talking about, you know,

669
00:54:45.480 --> 00:54:49.559
jabbing a needle into somebody and doing
it. And I look, I notoriously

670
00:54:49.840 --> 00:54:53.960
when I've had to get ivs or
things, I've they've had to in some

671
00:54:54.079 --> 00:55:00.360
cases if they couldn't find the vein
and I and if the deep veins or

672
00:55:00.400 --> 00:55:04.199
whatever you want to call it,
I've literally had to have them go in

673
00:55:04.280 --> 00:55:07.320
on the top of the hand with
something called like a butterfly or whatever.

674
00:55:07.760 --> 00:55:13.599
I do not recommend them at all, ever, ever, ever, So

675
00:55:13.800 --> 00:55:17.559
I don't necessarily I'm not necessarily bothered
by needles, but it sucks. And

676
00:55:17.639 --> 00:55:22.039
so that was a That was just
one example. That's the wake Forest one.

677
00:55:22.079 --> 00:55:24.480
Wait till you hear the Duke one. But first we're gonna hear from

678
00:55:25.639 --> 00:55:30.880
raced Agent with the Weather Channel.
He tries to dig himself out of whatever

679
00:55:30.920 --> 00:55:38.039
this is this morning. Yeah,
well it's big changes. Looking at a

680
00:55:38.079 --> 00:55:43.360
couple of things in terms of numbers. Temperature drops in twenty four hours,

681
00:55:43.400 --> 00:55:45.760
like twenty five to thirty degrees and
twenty four hours ago, so we all

682
00:55:45.840 --> 00:55:49.440
knew what was coming. We're just
kind of like shocked when it finally gets

683
00:55:49.440 --> 00:55:52.760
here. Low mid thirties for most
of us this morning. There are some

684
00:55:52.079 --> 00:55:58.599
forty degree tempts in around the triangle
right now at the airport's thirty seven forty

685
00:55:58.639 --> 00:56:05.079
down and done down near Hartnett County
Airport, mid corn of the west.

686
00:56:05.119 --> 00:56:07.639
And the bottom line is it's not
gonna stick around. This has been really

687
00:56:07.639 --> 00:56:09.800
what's been happening all winter. We
get these little cold shots, they stick

688
00:56:09.840 --> 00:56:14.280
around briefly, then they go away. So as we go through today,

689
00:56:14.360 --> 00:56:19.400
some clouds. I'm a little disappointed
in the sunshine fourcass. I thought there'd

690
00:56:19.400 --> 00:56:22.480
be more sun. There will be, but it won't be as much as

691
00:56:22.599 --> 00:56:24.199
I was thinking yesterday. Well a
loa to mid fifties should do it.

692
00:56:24.320 --> 00:56:28.079
Yeah, I know, So it
won't be bright and sunny. The good

693
00:56:28.119 --> 00:56:30.199
news is there's not much wind left. We've got a little rain tomorrow,

694
00:56:30.199 --> 00:56:32.760
but I think it's going to be
later in the day, mid to late

695
00:56:32.800 --> 00:56:37.079
afternoon from west to east and an
east breeze. It's going to keep us

696
00:56:37.119 --> 00:56:39.800
in the low fifties, and then
that rain should end by about midday Saturday,

697
00:56:39.880 --> 00:56:44.480
better afternoon, milder. We're quickly
back to the low to mid sixties

698
00:56:44.480 --> 00:56:49.400
and near seventy by Sunday and some
low seventies early next week. So not

699
00:56:49.480 --> 00:56:52.920
back casey though again a lot of
times when you get these strong cold fronts

700
00:56:52.920 --> 00:56:59.719
coming in, you know this winter, basically what's happening is happening again,

701
00:57:00.039 --> 00:57:01.800
sticks around a couple of days,
and it goes away. And that's basically

702
00:57:01.880 --> 00:57:06.320
what's happening. And we'll be back
to some better weather but little rain to

703
00:57:06.440 --> 00:57:08.239
end our week later tomorrow. But
I think seventy five percent of tomorrow is

704
00:57:08.239 --> 00:57:13.360
probably dry and most of the weekend
is dry and much milder. All Right,

705
00:57:13.400 --> 00:57:15.679
Can I and I switch gears just
real quick? Something much more impactful

706
00:57:15.719 --> 00:57:21.239
in our lives? Yep? Did
you see the crazy mace fight with the

707
00:57:21.239 --> 00:57:24.360
two ladies, one of them naked
out in California? I did not see

708
00:57:24.400 --> 00:57:28.440
that. It's on the Twitter.
You should see it. Oh yeah,

709
00:57:28.519 --> 00:57:31.159
I don't want to spoil it for
you, but there's a big there's a

710
00:57:31.280 --> 00:57:36.159
Shamalan and twist in that thing.
Man, you think it's going one way,

711
00:57:36.199 --> 00:57:38.159
and then it goes the other and
the one on our Twitter's blurred,

712
00:57:38.320 --> 00:57:44.599
so they all right, let us
know what you think. So all right,

713
00:57:44.599 --> 00:57:47.039
thanks man. Okay, there you
go very stage at Cough to brighten

714
00:57:47.119 --> 00:57:50.880
his day, and I would encourage
you all to do the same because it

715
00:57:51.000 --> 00:57:55.280
is hi hilarious and thankfully happening all
the way over there. So you got

716
00:57:55.320 --> 00:58:00.119
that, Okay, all right?
So these videos would these videos, what

717
00:58:00.320 --> 00:58:05.599
did they hold? Why are they
gone? And do you feel what we're

718
00:58:05.639 --> 00:58:08.840
about to hear is in the best
interest of the patients. We'll let you

719
00:58:08.880 --> 00:58:12.760
be the judge. Coming up next. Hang on, Haitlyn Clark's stuff,

720
00:58:12.880 --> 00:58:22.559
just because the way that I see
her being analyzed by people that clearly looks

721
00:58:22.719 --> 00:58:30.360
to be racial. Racial, okay, lot racial. And so I was

722
00:58:30.639 --> 00:58:35.960
I was here for it yesterday.
So Clark sheep, she set another record

723
00:58:36.079 --> 00:58:42.760
yesterday, had some like disgustingly gigantic
victory. How much they dominate one eight

724
00:58:42.840 --> 00:58:46.880
to sixty, kick the crap out
of Minnesota. She had a triple double?

725
00:58:47.000 --> 00:58:54.079
What was the what was the actual
record? She sent? So I'll

726
00:58:54.119 --> 00:59:01.679
be interested to watch the ESPN analysis
today. Okay, So that was enough

727
00:59:01.719 --> 00:59:06.719
to put her the all time,
all time leading scorer in the history of

728
00:59:06.800 --> 00:59:19.199
major women's college basketball, and that
includes both iterations of it. So yeah,

729
00:59:19.400 --> 00:59:23.519
how many points thirty six hundred and
fifty, which is just stupid when

730
00:59:23.519 --> 00:59:27.840
you consider it has to be accomplished
over a certain number of years, right,

731
00:59:27.880 --> 00:59:31.559
because it's not like the pros.
You got eligibility, as much eligibility

732
00:59:31.559 --> 00:59:36.599
as you got, that's when you
got to do it. So yeah,

733
00:59:36.599 --> 00:59:38.840
I did find that amusing. Speaking
of colleges and stuff, in this case,

734
00:59:38.880 --> 00:59:43.960
I don't find amusing. Let me
flip back to this. Souke Medical

735
00:59:44.000 --> 00:59:50.199
School had some videos that literally they
posted in it. In the videos which

736
00:59:50.199 --> 00:59:59.199
have now disappeared somehow following the Ben
Shapiro reporting. You see one of the

737
00:59:59.239 --> 01:00:07.800
doctors raman, I'm pronouncing that correctly
talking about DEEI, you know, diversity,

738
01:00:07.880 --> 01:00:14.719
equity and inclusion, not equality,
and how that comports with the decisions

739
01:00:14.760 --> 01:00:19.320
that they're making over at Duke.
And some would say it wasn't a good

740
01:00:19.360 --> 01:00:21.280
look. Let's get into it.
You know. The thing is we are

741
01:00:21.280 --> 01:00:24.039
in the south, right, and
unlike a lot of the like hospitals in

742
01:00:24.039 --> 01:00:29.599
the northeast and the west, we
serve a very southern population. This is

743
01:00:29.599 --> 01:00:32.920
not a VIP hospital. People are
not like flying in from Qatar to get

744
01:00:32.920 --> 01:00:37.719
treated here. We treat patients who
are just from the community in the South.

745
01:00:38.239 --> 01:00:42.159
And yes, my heart sings every
time I go into a room and

746
01:00:42.199 --> 01:00:45.800
I watch them watching Fox News,
or they have a manga hat on,

747
01:00:45.119 --> 01:00:50.119
or they're wearing a Confederate belt.
Right, these are the patients that we

748
01:00:50.199 --> 01:00:53.400
treat. But Geraldine, I will
say that the one very good thing about

749
01:00:53.400 --> 01:00:57.159
the South that I enjoy is exactly
what I alluded to earlier, is that

750
01:00:57.199 --> 01:01:00.320
we don't treat VIPs. We treat
people from our community. And our community,

751
01:01:00.360 --> 01:01:07.119
as all we explained, is majority
non white, and it is wonderful

752
01:01:07.199 --> 01:01:12.039
to treat such a diverse group of
people in every regard. And that's not

753
01:01:12.079 --> 01:01:15.440
an experience that I had in my
sabbis and other places. All that my

754
01:01:15.519 --> 01:01:21.079
friends have training in other programs.
Okay, and I'm just softening up for

755
01:01:21.119 --> 01:01:23.440
the other cut. But so that
gives you, I guess, a little

756
01:01:23.480 --> 01:01:32.440
flavor of kind of the mindset of
this physician. It sounds some people think

757
01:01:32.440 --> 01:01:39.000
that it makes it sounds as though
it's a little derogatory about folks in North

758
01:01:39.039 --> 01:01:43.519
Carolina or folks in the South,
as he keeps saying, I'll let you

759
01:01:43.559 --> 01:01:52.639
be the judge of that. But
is this mindset perhaps impacting in how medicine

760
01:01:52.760 --> 01:01:57.320
is delivered? That's really I think
we're most of the concern lies. Let's

761
01:01:57.360 --> 01:02:04.760
continue with this Ushian video twenty twenty
and George Floyd and those events happened and

762
01:02:04.840 --> 01:02:10.039
sort of collectively galvanize the consciousness of
Duke University and suddenly our department to try

763
01:02:10.079 --> 01:02:17.239
to do something and recognizing this like
centuries long history of racism and slavery in

764
01:02:17.360 --> 01:02:23.280
which Duke University essentially was founded on
which it was founded, and that's when

765
01:02:23.320 --> 01:02:28.599
we sort of had to confront the
history of institution, the history of our

766
01:02:28.639 --> 01:02:35.840
department, the walls of white men
that are draped across our hallways. And

767
01:02:36.639 --> 01:02:39.599
that's when we started to start to
think that maybe something should change something.

768
01:02:39.760 --> 01:02:44.239
All right, And okay, all
right, so you're talking about you're talking

769
01:02:44.239 --> 01:02:50.039
about an era that obviously predates probably
this doctor being alive and certainly me.

770
01:02:51.239 --> 01:02:54.360
But that's not the experience. Ross. Do you ever go to Duke Medical

771
01:02:55.480 --> 01:02:59.519
for anything near used to do?
I've been to Duke on a couple of

772
01:02:59.519 --> 01:03:02.119
different Asians for things. Uh,
my primary was there for a while.

773
01:03:05.519 --> 01:03:08.480
It wasn't all just white dudes in
there. So like this guy is sitting

774
01:03:08.480 --> 01:03:15.480
there that obviously currently wasn't the state
just before George Floyd, and he's kind

775
01:03:15.519 --> 01:03:22.119
of applying that it was and it
wasn't. Uh, there are there are

776
01:03:22.199 --> 01:03:24.800
lots. There are a lot of
doctors who this guy appears that his heritage

777
01:03:25.440 --> 01:03:32.079
appears to be an Indian. I
would place it. And uh there what

778
01:03:32.159 --> 01:03:37.519
one of the the doctor, the
the dermatologist doctor is he's from India that

779
01:03:37.559 --> 01:03:45.320
I go to. So but and
I like him because he has he doesn't

780
01:03:45.320 --> 01:03:49.360
want to mince words, joke nothing. He says, boom, let's get

781
01:03:49.400 --> 01:03:52.199
to it. And I like that
because I don't want to be there and

782
01:03:52.920 --> 01:03:54.880
right doesn't want to be staring at
you know, me with a shirt off.

783
01:03:54.920 --> 01:03:59.280
The weather going to be turning around. A little race stagic coming up

784
01:03:59.320 --> 01:04:02.360
later in the hour. He'll fill
you in on that, but first we

785
01:04:02.400 --> 01:04:08.679
got we got to talk about all
the Hollywood and adjacent insanity. And to

786
01:04:08.760 --> 01:04:14.199
do that we welcome in Steven kent
Are. I don't want to call you

787
01:04:14.280 --> 01:04:16.280
NERD correspondent, but it's kind of
stuck, sir, so you just know

788
01:04:16.360 --> 01:04:20.199
what NERD correspondent is. Just fine. My dad's been calling me that since

789
01:04:20.239 --> 01:04:24.159
I was five. Okay, all
right, cool, cool, they're on

790
01:04:24.199 --> 01:04:29.480
the same page as the Nerd Correspondent
tell me about the unknown. I'm very

791
01:04:29.519 --> 01:04:34.400
curious about this new Willy Wonka character
because I didn't see that. Kevin Dude,

792
01:04:34.519 --> 01:04:40.480
how great is Twitter right now?
On that story. I spent most

793
01:04:40.480 --> 01:04:45.320
of last night trying to explain this
Willy Wonka Glasgow story to both my wife

794
01:04:45.400 --> 01:04:49.199
and my daughter and explained just why
it was so funny, and I basically

795
01:04:49.280 --> 01:04:53.280
just landed on, you know,
let's make candy like a Mets lab and

796
01:04:54.079 --> 01:04:57.519
in the middle of Scotland and try
to get it to the kids enjoyed.

797
01:04:58.599 --> 01:05:01.000
Well, there's so many elements.
So like, that's a reference to that

798
01:05:01.159 --> 01:05:06.079
beaker set in front of the umpa
the umpah, the one who looks like

799
01:05:06.760 --> 01:05:11.800
she wants to like they should put
a jump net behind that woman's station because

800
01:05:11.840 --> 01:05:16.920
she looks miserable to be there.
But the backstory is like she thought the

801
01:05:16.920 --> 01:05:19.639
way Ross was explaining it to me
because I didn't see I didn't see that

802
01:05:19.679 --> 01:05:23.840
other post. But he's like she
was told basically she was going to have

803
01:05:23.960 --> 01:05:27.719
like a Scrooge McDuck vault full of
candy, right, they kind of get

804
01:05:27.800 --> 01:05:30.039
swim around in and and just be
able to give it to kids, which

805
01:05:30.239 --> 01:05:33.199
if you like kids, that's a
pretty good gig, right, And it

806
01:05:33.320 --> 01:05:39.199
was clearly that clearly wasn't happening.
And then you find out it's because the

807
01:05:39.320 --> 01:05:46.920
kids are over being absolutely terrified by
a combination of I guess the Willy Wonka

808
01:05:47.000 --> 01:05:49.159
actor. In fact, here we
got some audio of this. So the

809
01:05:49.199 --> 01:05:55.039
first red flight for me was when
I was cast as Willy Wonka. Anyone

810
01:05:55.079 --> 01:05:58.800
who looks at me and thinks Willy
Wonka and not umpa Lumpa is out of

811
01:05:58.840 --> 01:06:02.119
their mind. I give off major
rump a lumper energy. I got cast

812
01:06:02.159 --> 01:06:08.559
as the part on the Thursday,
was told that I needed to lend the

813
01:06:08.599 --> 01:06:13.440
script for the Friday, all right, and they posit here. And this

814
01:06:13.679 --> 01:06:17.400
is where this goes downhill, because
way do you hear how this script emerge

815
01:06:17.840 --> 01:06:23.079
that involved this character playing Willy Wonka, who is a character that people are

816
01:06:23.079 --> 01:06:27.639
familiar with, and then the killer
from Scream shows up from behind a mirror

817
01:06:27.719 --> 01:06:30.920
or something. How did we get
here? This is the answer to that

818
01:06:30.920 --> 01:06:35.760
that problems, send it over.
The script was fifteen pages monologue, pretty

819
01:06:35.840 --> 01:06:43.559
much of AI generated gibberish. One
of my favorite lines was there is a

820
01:06:43.599 --> 01:06:47.239
man who lives here. His name
is not known, so we call him

821
01:06:47.599 --> 01:06:57.280
the Unknown. The Unknown is an
evil chocolate maker who lives in the walls.

822
01:07:00.559 --> 01:07:04.400
All right, it's I haven't been
I you know what? You gave

823
01:07:04.440 --> 01:07:09.159
me flashbacks too. Do you remember
the the update to OZ what was it

824
01:07:09.199 --> 01:07:14.039
back to OZ or whatever? Yeah, with the roller skate dudes, I

825
01:07:14.119 --> 01:07:19.039
remember that was that was nightmare fuel
for for kids, my era of kids.

826
01:07:19.599 --> 01:07:23.639
I mean, this is this is
still just like the Unknown, this

827
01:07:23.840 --> 01:07:29.880
blacked blacked out creatures like a lost
member of the band slip knot trying to

828
01:07:29.920 --> 01:07:33.039
be in an Oopa Lupa territory.
Pretty frightening. I watched that video.

829
01:07:33.039 --> 01:07:36.239
I would not go to that show. No No, No, and the

830
01:07:36.320 --> 01:07:41.320
kid You can hear the kids literally
start to cry when when the character because

831
01:07:41.320 --> 01:07:45.079
they're kids and they just now,
all of a sudden there's a demon appearing

832
01:07:45.559 --> 01:07:47.840
Baba Duke, and and they were
what were they charge of their charge for

833
01:07:47.960 --> 01:07:54.960
forty five bucks to get in there? I mean, what doll like fire

834
01:07:55.079 --> 01:07:59.440
festival all over again. No,
Like, at least Fire Festival was in

835
01:07:59.519 --> 01:08:02.559
a funday destination, right, you
know you're in the Caribbean, you got

836
01:08:02.559 --> 01:08:05.239
that. I mean, yeah,
there's packs of wild dogs and people are

837
01:08:05.239 --> 01:08:09.280
tweeting how do I make a spear? And that sucks, but you know,

838
01:08:09.360 --> 01:08:12.360
at least at least it's sunny and
nice. You're just in this gloomy

839
01:08:12.440 --> 01:08:16.359
gym and you don't want to take
your kids for a day out inside a

840
01:08:16.479 --> 01:08:20.960
dank warehouse. No, no,
I I well, actually it's actually it

841
01:08:21.000 --> 01:08:24.920
is a concert venue. I looked
up the actual venue because it does it

842
01:08:24.960 --> 01:08:28.159
just looks like it looks like an
airplane hangar or something. But it's like

843
01:08:28.239 --> 01:08:32.079
it's where the hold concerts and stuff
in Glasgow there. So it's just dude,

844
01:08:32.119 --> 01:08:38.600
it's It's provided some of the funniest
entertainment that I've seen on Twitter,

845
01:08:38.600 --> 01:08:41.760
and quite sometimes we need to laugh, we need to laugh. Well,

846
01:08:41.800 --> 01:08:46.039
I think Ross Ross was on Twitter
coming out. He was he's realized you

847
01:08:46.039 --> 01:08:48.600
can make a bunch of cash.
You don't have to do anything with a

848
01:08:48.680 --> 01:08:54.159
star trek wrestling, combo things.
So we'll see how that pans out here

849
01:08:54.680 --> 01:08:58.479
on us soil. But I do
have to will buy the first ticket.

850
01:08:59.439 --> 01:09:01.359
Well yeah, and then you'll also
be the first person to testify at the

851
01:09:01.399 --> 01:09:05.359
fraud trials. Have that going for
you? All right? Let me slip

852
01:09:05.359 --> 01:09:11.880
over to just a couple other things
here. I see this as moonbat on

853
01:09:11.920 --> 01:09:15.199
moonbat violence. We use the term
moon bat around here, but leftists on

854
01:09:15.279 --> 01:09:20.239
leftist violence. So I'm fine with
it. But Disney Plus is Star Wars

855
01:09:20.239 --> 01:09:25.000
spinoff called The Bad I haven't watched
The Bad Batch, right, so I

856
01:09:25.000 --> 01:09:27.760
don't know if I don't know if
it's good or not. I guess maybe

857
01:09:27.800 --> 01:09:31.880
you can fill me in there.
However, one of the composers who contributed

858
01:09:31.920 --> 01:09:39.319
to the show in the credits was
dead named right using the old pre transition

859
01:09:40.039 --> 01:09:45.039
name, and people lost their crap
over this, and x account highlighted it.

860
01:09:45.039 --> 01:09:49.319
It goes viral. Now the social
justice guys are screaming at Disney,

861
01:09:49.760 --> 01:09:55.000
and it's like, you know what, this is the audience Disney clearly wants,

862
01:09:55.199 --> 01:09:58.520
or at the very least many other
content creators clearly want. Right,

863
01:09:59.039 --> 01:10:02.560
So this is what you get?
Am I is that too cynical? You

864
01:10:02.640 --> 01:10:04.800
do get what you deserve. Now, I'll give you a little bit of

865
01:10:04.840 --> 01:10:11.039
backstory. A The Bad Batch animated
series that takes place right after Star Wars

866
01:10:11.119 --> 01:10:14.079
episode three, so it's the very
beginning of the Rise of the Empire.

867
01:10:14.439 --> 01:10:17.479
It's a fine show. It's completely
forgettable, but it is not bad.

868
01:10:18.479 --> 01:10:24.920
And the score is done by the
Kiner family. So these are three composers,

869
01:10:25.000 --> 01:10:30.039
Kevin Kiner, Sean Kiner and the
son Dean Kiner. All three of

870
01:10:30.079 --> 01:10:33.079
them do Star Wars scores together.
They did the Ahsoka show, They've done

871
01:10:33.880 --> 01:10:38.600
parts of Star Wars, the Clone
Wars, and now they did the Bad

872
01:10:38.680 --> 01:10:43.960
Batch together. Now Dean Kiner is
now Deanna Kiner as you transgender and is

873
01:10:44.000 --> 01:10:47.520
now identifying as a woman, and
so the credits here. Still it's really

874
01:10:47.520 --> 01:10:51.720
remarkable that they did this because it
had to have been a clerical error marked

875
01:10:51.920 --> 01:10:58.159
Deanna Kiner down as Dean Kiner,
and so Daughters of Ferrix and some lefties

876
01:10:58.319 --> 01:11:03.039
on Twitter have completely lost their minds
and taken upon themselves to be aggrieved by

877
01:11:03.079 --> 01:11:06.680
this, which you know, I
just kind of find kind of bizarre because

878
01:11:06.720 --> 01:11:12.880
you would think that Deanna Kiner and
the Kiner family would pretty much just handle

879
01:11:12.960 --> 01:11:16.840
this themselves, and they probably were
going to without the daughter Sepherics or whatever

880
01:11:16.880 --> 01:11:21.840
they are basically claiming the scalp of
Jennifer Corbett, who heads the show,

881
01:11:23.520 --> 01:11:28.920
as a victory. But yeah,
but is it okay that I go good?

882
01:11:29.399 --> 01:11:31.680
Right? And because it makes me
feel a little bad? And you're

883
01:11:31.760 --> 01:11:39.840
right, this doesn't seem to be
elevated by Kiner. It's obviously people on

884
01:11:39.920 --> 01:11:45.760
the periphery. That being said,
details, especially when talking about Star Wars

885
01:11:45.800 --> 01:11:50.159
stuff, you know, people will
fight over minute details for well they still

886
01:11:50.159 --> 01:11:55.119
do you know the who shot first? Thing? Right? This is it's

887
01:11:55.159 --> 01:11:59.199
not going to escape scrutiny, even
if it is a clerical error. So

888
01:11:59.520 --> 01:12:01.680
I'm not a prize that it got
as beloved. Now, that's right.

889
01:12:01.720 --> 01:12:06.680
You build the audience that you deserve, and Disney has gotten themselves an audience

890
01:12:06.720 --> 01:12:13.800
that just completely hounds them and drags
their production crews over the coals anytime they

891
01:12:13.840 --> 01:12:17.199
make any kind of error as far
as leftists are concerned on Twitter, and

892
01:12:17.239 --> 01:12:21.319
the biggest mistake that they make is
they continue to talk back to them.

893
01:12:21.800 --> 01:12:26.319
What they need to understand at some
point is that you don't work for these

894
01:12:26.359 --> 01:12:30.439
people, the activists on Twitter.
So you know, Jennifer Corbett, who

895
01:12:30.439 --> 01:12:35.640
heads up the Bad Batch, did
respond as well as the Disney Help Disney

896
01:12:35.640 --> 01:12:41.600
Plus helpline, which is just kind
of bizarre. But Jennifer Corba mentioned that

897
01:12:41.640 --> 01:12:45.239
it was a clerical error and they're
going to fix it. And I'm guessing

898
01:12:45.279 --> 01:12:49.319
now she's going to start asking for
forgiveness before they call for her ousting from

899
01:12:49.359 --> 01:12:54.920
Disney altogether. Do you think Disney
would No, I don't think so.

900
01:12:55.079 --> 01:12:59.119
I think somebody just made a mistake
somewhere in the production lines. But you

901
01:12:59.159 --> 01:13:01.800
know, the thing about the far
left fans of Star Wars who live on

902
01:13:01.840 --> 01:13:08.079
Twitter and harass the staff and crew
all day is that at some point they

903
01:13:08.119 --> 01:13:12.359
always tend to listen to these people
just so that they can make them go

904
01:13:12.479 --> 01:13:16.159
away. But I've got a tip
for Disney, which is the mute button.

905
01:13:16.520 --> 01:13:20.119
I've been using it generously this morning
on this very subject. Yeah.

906
01:13:20.239 --> 01:13:24.920
No, it's a big fan of
that. In fact, I've been doing

907
01:13:24.920 --> 01:13:29.680
a lot of it because I'm i
am I'm at my wits end on people

908
01:13:30.079 --> 01:13:35.399
dumping content into the threads of another
unrelated post just because it's high profile,

909
01:13:36.119 --> 01:13:40.520
right, So it's like it'll be
some here's a news story and then there's

910
01:13:40.720 --> 01:13:45.000
you know, it's it's engagement farming
and it's annoyed and I just I've I've

911
01:13:45.000 --> 01:13:47.880
turned into the old man on Twitter
where I just start I just block it

912
01:13:47.960 --> 01:13:53.359
or mute these accounts. Now I'm
just done with it. You saw,

913
01:13:53.960 --> 01:13:56.159
let's do this. I want to
hit a break. Did you? Did

914
01:13:56.199 --> 01:14:00.199
you see the thread last week?
We didn't get into it on what Musk

915
01:14:00.279 --> 01:14:04.000
and other like these changes, these
bigger changes they want to make on Twitter

916
01:14:05.119 --> 01:14:09.479
too. No, I haven't.
Okay, well, you know I'm gonna

917
01:14:09.520 --> 01:14:12.880
have to find that. I'll give
you an example of a couple of them.

918
01:14:13.039 --> 01:14:16.079
But you know what, maybe actually
let me do this because it's pretty

919
01:14:16.159 --> 01:14:18.680
lengthy and I don't know that I
could get you up to speed on this,

920
01:14:18.720 --> 01:14:20.960
and I want to have that conversation. We might do that next week

921
01:14:21.039 --> 01:14:24.720
because that's when they're going to start
rolling some of them out, they said,

922
01:14:25.119 --> 01:14:27.680
as we get into the next month. But I do have something else

923
01:14:27.720 --> 01:14:31.479
I want to chat with you about. So we are with Stephen Kent.

924
01:14:31.560 --> 01:14:34.840
Will take a break, be right
back, hang on continuing our conversation with

925
01:14:35.159 --> 01:14:41.800
Stephen Kent for all things entertainment,
the intersection of entertainment and politics. That

926
01:14:41.840 --> 01:14:45.479
seems to be where we lie.
Although I was laughing during the break as

927
01:14:45.479 --> 01:14:50.319
something you tweeted out about a half
hour ago. Steven, you're exactly right

928
01:14:50.359 --> 01:14:55.199
on the Mitch McConnell's sub headline.
They've been sitting on that thing forever.

929
01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:06.680
Get out of the way. Yeah. Yeah, I'm disappointed to to learn

930
01:15:06.760 --> 01:15:11.439
that he's actually not stepping down till
November. I got too excited about the

931
01:15:11.439 --> 01:15:15.800
headlines of Mitch mcconnald's departure, and
now I saw the fine print of November

932
01:15:15.319 --> 01:15:18.079
and kind of like Joe Biden,
I'm like, wait, this guy is

933
01:15:18.119 --> 01:15:21.640
gonna make it that long. I
don't think so, you know, and

934
01:15:21.840 --> 01:15:27.960
there is going there is a significant
amount of upheaval and change coming the way

935
01:15:28.000 --> 01:15:31.600
of Republicans, both elected as well
as the party apparatus, obviously with McDaniel

936
01:15:32.520 --> 01:15:38.079
and I guess you have what two
or three resignations coming up within the RNC

937
01:15:38.840 --> 01:15:43.960
and Mitch McConnell, and I guess
we will see what emerges there and whether

938
01:15:44.039 --> 01:15:46.439
we find it more palatable. You
know, we saw it with the Speaker

939
01:15:46.479 --> 01:15:49.680
of the House, the McCarthy thing, and I guess I would ask many

940
01:15:49.720 --> 01:15:54.720
of the people who really wanted him
out, do you feel like it's going

941
01:15:54.760 --> 01:15:58.960
better? With the new guy.
And I don't know the answer to that,

942
01:15:59.119 --> 01:16:03.880
especially when it comes to things like
that whole funding debacle that had border

943
01:16:03.880 --> 01:16:08.640
stuff and they didn't have border stuff, So I don't that's what do you

944
01:16:08.640 --> 01:16:11.520
what do you think? Do you
think you think there's a little buyer beware

945
01:16:11.720 --> 01:16:15.720
on on these force changes? Do
you think it's a good thing? Well,

946
01:16:15.880 --> 01:16:18.840
what I am certain of is that
whoever places Mitch McConnell will probably be

947
01:16:19.000 --> 01:16:24.520
named John John something will be the
news speaker of the House. That's a

948
01:16:24.560 --> 01:16:30.760
pretty good bet. John Cornyn SENA
yeah, yeah, Senate Minority or majority

949
01:16:30.840 --> 01:16:32.880
leader. Thank you. That's the
only thing we can be sure of.

950
01:16:33.319 --> 01:16:35.600
Okay, all right, well I
guess I'm not in that lottery, so

951
01:16:35.640 --> 01:16:40.720
I'll move on. I saw this
yesterday. I like both the both the

952
01:16:40.760 --> 01:16:45.920
actors so and it's always interesting to
think this out Alan rich And and if

953
01:16:46.159 --> 01:16:50.399
you guys out there don't know,
he is the new Jack Reacher and arguably

954
01:16:50.520 --> 01:16:56.960
the much better Jack Reacher. I
have enjoyed the series there. However,

955
01:16:57.000 --> 01:17:01.680
he was doing an interview with Men's
Health and and at one time he was

956
01:17:02.760 --> 01:17:10.840
up to play four in the MCU, which he said he didn't take it

957
01:17:10.960 --> 01:17:15.399
seriously. He was told it was
his to lose, but he didn't.

958
01:17:15.880 --> 01:17:19.920
He just and I guess maybe if
you think about the time frame in which

959
01:17:19.920 --> 01:17:24.000
you're trying to evaluate, hey,
is this going to be a big deal,

960
01:17:24.239 --> 01:17:29.319
you really only have iron Man to
go on and him not getting it.

961
01:17:29.359 --> 01:17:33.399
Eventually the park goes to Chris Hemsworth, and I again, I like

962
01:17:33.479 --> 01:17:39.479
both actors, but I don't know
that Thor could be Thor with Alan or

963
01:17:39.880 --> 01:17:45.279
Richan and any better than Helmsworth was. Yeah, No, I don't think

964
01:17:45.279 --> 01:17:49.319
so. I was actually watching these
audition tapes from the early MCU the other

965
01:17:49.399 --> 01:17:53.600
day when I saw this article go
up, and it's just always interesting with

966
01:17:53.680 --> 01:17:58.279
actors who they think that they are
cut out to play when they go into

967
01:17:58.319 --> 01:18:00.479
an audition, and then who they
actually up being cast as. Because Tom

968
01:18:00.880 --> 01:18:05.600
Hitdleston, who ended up playing Loki, he was trying out for four and

969
01:18:05.720 --> 01:18:11.520
it's it's impossible to imagine a guy
is kind of wiry and snake looking as

970
01:18:11.560 --> 01:18:16.000
Tom Hiddleston, who's perfect for a
deceptive villain like Loki being in the armor

971
01:18:16.000 --> 01:18:19.079
of Thor. And Chris Hemsworth,
I mean, I don't know. I

972
01:18:19.079 --> 01:18:23.039
guess his audition, like, he
didn't take it seriously either. It was

973
01:18:23.039 --> 01:18:28.600
a goofball audition, but goofball,
tall, dashing, strong, That is

974
01:18:28.680 --> 01:18:32.279
kind of what Thor is all about. But you know, then you've got

975
01:18:32.319 --> 01:18:38.479
people like Chris Pratt, who ended
up playing star Lord in Guardians of the

976
01:18:38.520 --> 01:18:43.159
Galaxy, and he's coming off of, you know, being type cast as

977
01:18:43.199 --> 01:18:45.680
the guy in the office, and
for him to try to break out of

978
01:18:45.720 --> 01:18:50.319
that rut and get his career restarted
as an action hero, that must have

979
01:18:50.560 --> 01:18:58.319
been the most intimidating audition you could
possibly imagine, because nobody took Chris Pratt

980
01:18:58.319 --> 01:19:02.039
seriously. He was still working on
parts or Parks and Records, but he

981
01:19:02.079 --> 01:19:05.479
was still working on that, and
he said, I'm the chubby, funny

982
01:19:05.479 --> 01:19:11.079
guy, and he was talking about
how he had to literally transition from a

983
01:19:11.079 --> 01:19:15.800
health standpoint to do it. So
obviously he did take that very seriously.

984
01:19:15.880 --> 01:19:19.079
And again, these are characters you
can't imagine other people playing. As much

985
01:19:19.079 --> 01:19:23.840
as I like Richen and Jack Reacher, I don't think he could have pulled

986
01:19:23.840 --> 01:19:28.159
off Dad Bod Thor and you know, that whole series of events because that's

987
01:19:28.199 --> 01:19:30.960
all about really comedy at that point. Yeah, I think that's where the

988
01:19:31.000 --> 01:19:35.000
fat suit comes in handy for the
people who are not going to be like

989
01:19:35.279 --> 01:19:40.920
lifestyle career actors. And I do
like Richen, but I just don't see

990
01:19:41.000 --> 01:19:45.239
him in that kind of way.
That guy takes fitness way too seriously.

991
01:19:45.000 --> 01:19:47.159
But you know, it does remind
me of like how you know, when

992
01:19:47.159 --> 01:19:51.159
you get a role, it completely
changes your life. And I think about

993
01:19:51.199 --> 01:19:56.560
Star Wars often and all the people
who auditioned in the early aughts of Star

994
01:19:56.600 --> 01:19:59.239
Wars, like Kurt Russell, who
was going, you know, in the

995
01:20:00.319 --> 01:20:04.520
to be Han solo, as well
as Burt Reynolds, like these are people

996
01:20:04.600 --> 01:20:10.560
whose lives would have been completely upended
and changed. Their legacy is completely different

997
01:20:11.000 --> 01:20:14.720
if they had gotten those roles.
Phone number eight eight eight ninety three four

998
01:20:14.880 --> 01:20:17.720
seven eight seven four. All right, we're gonna get a little rapid fire

999
01:20:17.800 --> 01:20:24.840
here. You probably have seen in
Illinois a judge, a Cook County,

1000
01:20:24.920 --> 01:20:32.479
so Chicago judge who yesterday just decided
that Trump can't be on the ballot.

1001
01:20:32.680 --> 01:20:38.239
And in Illinois they actually this actually
had been a challenge previously, right,

1002
01:20:38.319 --> 01:20:41.640
they were one of the states take
this up, and the Illinois State Board

1003
01:20:41.640 --> 01:20:45.520
of Elections actually rendered a ruling on
it already saying that no, you can't

1004
01:20:45.640 --> 01:20:51.279
keep them off the ballot. So
activists went out and they found this judge

1005
01:20:51.319 --> 01:20:58.399
who ruled that you can. And
what is this idiot's name, Tracy Porter.

1006
01:21:00.520 --> 01:21:06.000
Now what becomes fascinating is when you
figure out what kind of judge she

1007
01:21:06.239 --> 01:21:15.560
is. Porter who presides over minor
traffic violations and class A misdemeanor matters.

1008
01:21:15.560 --> 01:21:27.119
So she is an at large judge
who handles traffic violations and class A misdemeanor

1009
01:21:27.159 --> 01:21:31.520
matters. So you know you're talking
about like, actually, I don't know

1010
01:21:31.560 --> 01:21:36.560
in Illinois specifically what falls in there, but it's low level stuff like disturbing

1011
01:21:36.600 --> 01:21:43.720
the peace, things like that.
That is who apparently has decided that she

1012
01:21:43.880 --> 01:21:46.840
is in a position to rule whether
a federal candidate can be on the ballot

1013
01:21:46.840 --> 01:21:51.560
there. And of course this is
what judge shopping looks like. I don't

1014
01:21:51.600 --> 01:21:55.880
know that I've had to see them
go this deep on the bench before,

1015
01:21:55.920 --> 01:22:01.199
but hey, they found one,
and so quickly you'll quickly get overturned,

1016
01:22:01.239 --> 01:22:06.199
obviously, but and there will be
no penalty for it when it couldn't appear

1017
01:22:06.279 --> 01:22:10.680
more political if you tried. So, yeah, I just wanted you to

1018
01:22:10.720 --> 01:22:17.319
know that little nugget of background,
because it gave me both a horrible feeling

1019
01:22:17.319 --> 01:22:21.199
inside but also did chuckle just a
little. All right, we got lots

1020
01:22:21.199 --> 01:22:24.479
of stuff up on the Twitter.
I mean, I encourage you to see.

1021
01:22:24.520 --> 01:22:30.119
We got the crazy California mace fight. That's a thing. We got

1022
01:22:30.159 --> 01:22:34.760
an only fans. She's also a
mom. She's his only fans, but

1023
01:22:34.800 --> 01:22:39.880
also as a mom to a ten
year old. She's really upset because she

1024
01:22:40.000 --> 01:22:44.199
had to stop only fans ying is
what we'll call that, and had to

1025
01:22:44.239 --> 01:22:47.039
go pick her kid up from school
because he's projectile vomiting all over the place

1026
01:22:47.159 --> 01:22:51.039
multiple times, and she's losing her
mind over that. So you can watch

1027
01:22:51.079 --> 01:23:01.840
that insanity and feel better about your
parenting. And this. So yesterday there

1028
01:23:01.880 --> 01:23:08.159
this clip which is about a thirty
second clip of somebody who is who's obviously

1029
01:23:08.319 --> 01:23:14.760
a cyber expert, who is detailing
as part of a criminal proceeding, you

1030
01:23:14.800 --> 01:23:17.239
know, is what he found,
right, So he's he's he's the computer

1031
01:23:17.359 --> 01:23:20.079
nerd that they have dig through.
And then they take the stand to say,

1032
01:23:20.159 --> 01:23:24.159
yes, we were able to pull
this ip or see these things,

1033
01:23:24.279 --> 01:23:29.119
or that here's the digital footprint,
and and and so it's it's really it's

1034
01:23:29.279 --> 01:23:32.039
usually not the most exciting part of
the case, but it got really interesting.

1035
01:23:32.119 --> 01:23:35.600
And I saw people saying that it
was from the continuation of the Fanny

1036
01:23:35.680 --> 01:23:45.039
Willis hearing, but it's not.
It actually is part of the hearing going

1037
01:23:45.079 --> 01:23:51.319
on with the armor, the the
the the Hollywood woman who provides firearms for

1038
01:23:51.479 --> 01:23:58.680
movie sets, and specifically rust the
alet where Alec Baldwin shot and killed the

1039
01:23:58.880 --> 01:24:03.119
uh one of the workers there,
and so it's part of that trial.

1040
01:24:03.600 --> 01:24:08.840
However, it's not something I've ever
heard in court. Listen to this.

1041
01:24:08.960 --> 01:24:18.159
What's the owner name of this film? The name that would appear, say

1042
01:24:18.159 --> 01:24:30.439
a Bluetooth device is found online,
which is gorilla grip. Well, okay,

1043
01:24:30.680 --> 01:24:32.760
Hentelly kind of doesn't want to say
it, but he's got to,

1044
01:24:33.119 --> 01:24:42.640
and we had to bleep it.
But it's gorilla grip. And then we

1045
01:24:42.640 --> 01:24:46.039
had to bleep a word. And
it's a word that you could use in

1046
01:24:47.199 --> 01:24:53.800
more colloquial manner to describe a certain
part of a woman. And I heard

1047
01:24:53.840 --> 01:24:57.119
that yesterday and I got I gotta
be honest. As I get older,

1048
01:24:58.359 --> 01:25:03.239
I feel more and more immature that
the if you so, I got an

1049
01:25:03.239 --> 01:25:09.039
iPhone and I have an iPad,
and obviously there's interconnectivity. I can hotspot

1050
01:25:09.079 --> 01:25:12.319
all of that, but the devices
have individual names, and so if you're

1051
01:25:12.359 --> 01:25:15.039
in public and let's say you were
trying to connect a Bluetooth of device,

1052
01:25:15.119 --> 01:25:17.399
you can see a lot of the
other Bluetooth stuff around you, right,

1053
01:25:17.520 --> 01:25:20.279
Or if you're looking for Wi Fi
networks, if I haven't hot spotted,

1054
01:25:20.319 --> 01:25:25.520
you could see the name of the
network. And I've always found it very

1055
01:25:25.560 --> 01:25:29.720
amusing on my phone, and it's
been this way since I think I got

1056
01:25:29.720 --> 01:25:33.600
my first iPhone that could do this. It's always been Uncle Touchy's puzzle basement.

1057
01:25:34.039 --> 01:25:36.279
And every now and then, if
I'm in a public setting and I'm

1058
01:25:36.319 --> 01:25:42.000
hot spotting over the laptop or something, and you can see somebody connecting and

1059
01:25:42.039 --> 01:25:44.479
kind of giving a quizzical look,
and I have to wonder if they see

1060
01:25:44.479 --> 01:25:48.159
that. That being said, I
feel a lot better now because this also

1061
01:25:48.279 --> 01:25:53.359
is supposed to be a grown adult. Oh and my iPad is Hunter Biden's

1062
01:25:53.399 --> 01:25:56.560
laptop. So if you're ever in
public, can you see those around I

1063
01:25:56.600 --> 01:26:00.439
may be nearby, is what I'm
saying. But uh, yeah, I

1064
01:26:00.479 --> 01:26:03.880
saw most people I think who came
across that yes, they were told it

1065
01:26:03.920 --> 01:26:06.880
was part of the Fanny Willis thing, and I just want to, you

1066
01:26:06.960 --> 01:26:12.399
know, put the accurate information out
there, but it doesn't become less funny,

1067
01:26:12.680 --> 01:26:15.439
because that's like, that's the fear, right, If I could for

1068
01:26:15.560 --> 01:26:19.680
just a moment like that, one
day you'll be sitting in court and your

1069
01:26:19.680 --> 01:26:25.000
Google search history will be in there. Right, that's the that's the stuff

1070
01:26:25.039 --> 01:26:28.039
you don't think about until it's time
to do that. Before then, he

1071
01:26:28.199 --> 01:26:30.720
just look at this, I had
this funny network name. Look at this,

1072
01:26:30.399 --> 01:26:34.239
and now when there's some guy reading
it into the record in court,

1073
01:26:34.720 --> 01:26:42.640
the fun vanishes. So perhaps a
cautionary tale there. All right, just

1074
01:26:42.680 --> 01:26:45.680
saw this and we're coming off the
mace thing. So I thought, well,

1075
01:26:45.760 --> 01:26:49.560
let's let's go ahead and chat about
this, cause I don't remember this

1076
01:26:49.720 --> 01:26:55.560
when I was in school. I
do remember that we did do archery in

1077
01:26:55.760 --> 01:27:02.279
Pe and it kind of didn't go
well because instead of just we're out on

1078
01:27:02.279 --> 01:27:05.079
the football field is where we'd shoot. You have to know my high school,

1079
01:27:05.119 --> 01:27:10.359
the football field was lower than the
school. It's the very top of

1080
01:27:10.359 --> 01:27:14.079
the hill and you walk down to
it and then directly across from it is

1081
01:27:14.600 --> 01:27:19.600
a huge slope there's a park and
it's also where everyone goes to sled in

1082
01:27:19.640 --> 01:27:23.239
the winter if they lived in town
of Buffalo, Wyoming. And it goes

1083
01:27:23.279 --> 01:27:30.239
down into the central park there.
But it's a huge, huge open area.

1084
01:27:30.279 --> 01:27:32.600
And like some of the idiots I
went to school with, we're trying

1085
01:27:32.640 --> 01:27:35.600
to see how far they could shoot
aerrows. So that wasn't good. That

1086
01:27:35.720 --> 01:27:42.359
being said, this is just this
is far crazier. A teacher in New

1087
01:27:42.399 --> 01:27:51.039
Mexico is in a little bit of
trouble. A lawsuit now pending. This

1088
01:27:51.159 --> 01:28:00.159
after the high school, the New
Mexico High School teacher organized sword fights in

1089
01:28:00.239 --> 01:28:03.079
class and there and there's video,
by the way, and what you see

1090
01:28:03.159 --> 01:28:10.520
is you see two students with swords
going at each other and there is some

1091
01:28:10.600 --> 01:28:15.119
protective gear and it's not it is
not fencing with the ball tips and the

1092
01:28:15.159 --> 01:28:18.159
full protective gear. It's clearly not
that. And in fact, I know

1093
01:28:18.199 --> 01:28:24.359
it's not that because one of the
students who said that she was she was

1094
01:28:24.399 --> 01:28:28.399
only doing this at the behest of
the teacher who demanded her to do it.

1095
01:28:30.119 --> 01:28:38.920
She was injured pretty good. Let's
see here the civil action filed by

1096
01:28:38.359 --> 01:28:44.520
the guardians of the students are the
grandparents. But according to the lawsuit,

1097
01:28:44.880 --> 01:28:49.800
during the duel, which I'm guessing
she lost, right, well, I

1098
01:28:49.840 --> 01:28:55.800
mean, how these things work,
she sustains severed nerves and tendons. It's

1099
01:28:55.840 --> 01:29:00.560
a huge gash there. The former
let's see, former chemistry teacher and assistant

1100
01:29:00.640 --> 01:29:08.439
principle are named in the lawsuit.
The swords was a katana and a and

1101
01:29:08.680 --> 01:29:12.479
I guess a more traditional style fencing
sword, but not one with a blunted

1102
01:29:12.560 --> 01:29:15.039
tip, one that clearly could draw
blood, because that's what she got hacked

1103
01:29:15.039 --> 01:29:19.000
with. So you have Ninjas sword
versus you know, like French style sword.

1104
01:29:19.199 --> 01:29:23.640
And this is going on in the
middle of class, and it's chemistry,

1105
01:29:23.640 --> 01:29:27.279
and I'm trying to figure out how
the hell that connects to chemistry like

1106
01:29:27.640 --> 01:29:32.560
metal shop maybe or pe maybe,
even though it's a horrible idea, but

1107
01:29:33.199 --> 01:29:35.880
every day I see one of these
stories and I'm like, how did you

1108
01:29:36.039 --> 01:29:43.760
think that was a good idea?
How did you now? As a high

1109
01:29:43.800 --> 01:29:46.199
school student, I'd be crazy entertained, like, oh my gosh, look

1110
01:29:46.239 --> 01:29:50.880
what they're letting us do. But
in this case, again a significant injury,

1111
01:29:50.880 --> 01:29:57.479
big old lawsuit, and the reason
the assistant principle is in there is

1112
01:29:57.520 --> 01:30:01.520
Following the injury and the chemistry teacher
laning to the assistant principle how it happened.

1113
01:30:02.000 --> 01:30:05.479
The assistant principal, rather than immediately
calling nine to one one, uh,

1114
01:30:05.560 --> 01:30:11.520
basically, I decided, well we'll
call it. We'll call her grandparents

1115
01:30:11.560 --> 01:30:15.159
to come and pick her up first, and then waited for twenty minutes and

1116
01:30:15.159 --> 01:30:17.520
didn't tell the family exactly what the
problem was. And then, as you

1117
01:30:17.520 --> 01:30:21.960
can imagine, they finally about thirty
minutes later, Grandpa arrived and off to

1118
01:30:23.000 --> 01:30:26.880
the hospital they went. So there
you go. Don't let your students fight

1119
01:30:26.920 --> 01:30:29.680
with swords bribably, I can end, well, all right, raced Agic

1120
01:30:29.680 --> 01:30:32.439
from the Weather Channel has never been
in a duel this year. How do

1121
01:30:32.479 --> 01:30:35.640
you how that's in New Mexico?
How do in an American high school?

1122
01:30:35.680 --> 01:30:39.920
You go, all right, kids, we're gonna have unprotected, real deal

1123
01:30:40.039 --> 01:30:45.359
sword fights. Go and think you're
not gonna lose your job. Maybe you

1124
01:30:45.479 --> 01:30:50.640
wanted to lose real live swords that
are not even like fake. No,

1125
01:30:50.640 --> 01:30:57.039
no one of the girls got she
got slashed, significant injury. It's terrible,

1126
01:30:57.399 --> 01:31:01.079
it's terrible. She should get better
swords. So maybe think of a

1127
01:31:01.159 --> 01:31:03.920
different teacher that's rude. All right, So what do you got real quick

1128
01:31:03.920 --> 01:31:09.359
inter Nutshell, Yeah, a little
overcast, not rain making clouds. It's

1129
01:31:09.439 --> 01:31:13.079
been a high level of overcast,
low fifties today, so temper just have

1130
01:31:13.159 --> 01:31:15.720
to come down and come down quite
a bit, especially this morning. I

1131
01:31:15.760 --> 01:31:19.359
know everybody felt the change. Rain
probably later tomorrow afternoon, mid to late

1132
01:31:19.399 --> 01:31:23.960
afternoon, still cool, little mid
fifties, but that should taper off about

1133
01:31:23.960 --> 01:31:26.760
midday Saturday, and then we'll kind
of reset. We'll get back to the

1134
01:31:26.800 --> 01:31:30.319
milder weather for Saturday afternoon, cloudy
load to mid sixties, and then on

1135
01:31:30.399 --> 01:31:35.239
Sunday partial sun and Monday partial sun
with clouds will be right around seventy degrees.

1136
01:31:35.279 --> 01:31:38.800
So this is nice, little cool
snap and then a little wet weather

1137
01:31:38.800 --> 01:31:41.720
for your Friday evening plans as we
get into March, and then the first

1138
01:31:41.720 --> 01:31:45.439
weekend of March. Actually not too
bad. Temperature slightly above average. Okay,

1139
01:31:45.479 --> 01:31:47.720
all right, I appreciate it.
Several chat tomorrow, have it going

1140
01:31:48.520 --> 01:31:51.720
yep, And Jeff Bellinger joins us
in a few hangout. I didn't see

1141
01:31:51.720 --> 01:31:56.520
it in your list, Jeff Bellinger, but we were laughing earlier. Apparently

1142
01:31:56.920 --> 01:32:00.840
Wendy's is rethinking. Did you see
you see update on that insanity They backed

1143
01:32:00.840 --> 01:32:03.359
away from it. Yeah, this, I did have it in the list.

1144
01:32:03.880 --> 01:32:09.239
I've said this may help to turn
around what's been a bad week for

1145
01:32:09.359 --> 01:32:15.479
Wendy's restaurants that serve breakfast, giving
away cinnabon pull aparts to celebrate Leap Day

1146
01:32:15.840 --> 01:32:19.359
and reiterated that earlier this week Wendy's
had to back off on that plan to

1147
01:32:19.560 --> 01:32:25.439
attest surge pricing of some menu items. I stand corrected right now, All

1148
01:32:25.520 --> 01:32:28.920
right, yep, the idea just
went over like a lead a balloon with

1149
01:32:29.319 --> 01:32:34.359
consumers stocks. Casey staged a modest
retreat yesterday, but it looks like we'll

1150
01:32:34.359 --> 01:32:41.000
have a turnaround today. The Federal
Reserve's favored inflation gauge came in as expected.

1151
01:32:41.039 --> 01:32:44.760
It's called the PCE Cordy Flator.
Last month, it was up two

1152
01:32:44.840 --> 01:32:48.079
point eight percent from January of last
year, but because that was sort of

1153
01:32:48.119 --> 01:32:53.399
baked into the markets, it was
expected. The futures staging a sort of

1154
01:32:53.439 --> 01:32:56.720
relief rally. They were lower until
that came out. Right now, the

1155
01:32:56.760 --> 01:33:00.199
Dow futures are up sixty points.
The Labor Department to two hundred and fifteen

1156
01:33:00.239 --> 01:33:05.319
thousand new claims for unemployment benefits last
week that was thirteen thousand more than the

1157
01:33:05.359 --> 01:33:10.600
prior week, and report out this
morning. Casey says it's become a lot

1158
01:33:10.680 --> 01:33:15.199
harder for would be car buyers to
get auto loans. Cox Automotive says lenders

1159
01:33:15.239 --> 01:33:18.159
have tightened their standards. They're worried
now about the risks of defaults. With

1160
01:33:18.319 --> 01:33:23.680
soaring interest rates and high car prices
squeezing budgets, a lot of Americans,

1161
01:33:23.720 --> 01:33:28.439
even with good credit scores, are
having more trouble than usual getting loan approvals.

1162
01:33:28.520 --> 01:33:30.319
In Casey, all right, well
that's not a bubble. That's probably

1163
01:33:30.359 --> 01:33:33.079
going to be horrible at some point. Thank you much, Jeff, appreciate

1164
01:33:33.119 --> 01:33:36.399
it. Okay, all right,
have a good day. All those defaults,

1165
01:33:36.640 --> 01:33:42.439
that's why they're concerned, all right, I Q Jeff and not having

1166
01:33:42.479 --> 01:33:45.800
it and is right there, And
I swear I scanned his stack by the

1167
01:33:45.840 --> 01:33:47.920
way. Over the break, I
did read a little more on the New

1168
01:33:47.960 --> 01:33:56.399
Mexico stude could I wanted to figure
out how a chemistry teacher incorporates sword battles

1169
01:33:56.439 --> 01:34:00.840
in there? And it says here
in this other article, the it was

1170
01:34:01.479 --> 01:34:09.560
they were teaching about metal and bonding
and metal melding, which yeah, I

1171
01:34:09.640 --> 01:34:13.960
guess, but then I saw it's
in Albuquerque, and I realized this is

1172
01:34:14.000 --> 01:34:19.720
not remotely the worst thing that a
high school chemistry teacher in Albuquerque has ever

1173
01:34:19.800 --> 01:34:25.119
done. So, I mean,
that's a really really high bar. That's

1174
01:34:25.119 --> 01:34:28.359
where That's where Breaking Bad was right
Albuquerque. Am I correct on that.

1175
01:34:28.600 --> 01:34:31.560
I never watched the show, but
Ross did so. But yeah, so

1176
01:34:32.079 --> 01:34:36.479
you know, by that standard,
this is nothing, man, This is

1177
01:34:36.560 --> 01:34:41.239
fine. And finally, the Miami
Herald is upset. If you didn't know

1178
01:34:41.439 --> 01:34:47.600
the city of Miami Beach right South
Beach, that area they are. They're

1179
01:34:47.640 --> 01:34:53.960
doing a lot of tweaks for spring
break this year after what was absolutely insane

1180
01:34:54.039 --> 01:34:58.159
spring breaks the last two years you
had. You had restaurants that literally had

1181
01:34:58.159 --> 01:35:00.720
to get people to fight people who
trying to leave and not pay for their

1182
01:35:00.760 --> 01:35:05.159
meals because it was so frequent.
There were shootings. The guy with the

1183
01:35:05.279 --> 01:35:10.199
Joker tattoo on his face that was
wanting to sue rock Star for inclusion and

1184
01:35:10.279 --> 01:35:15.399
grand theft, that's where his video
emerged. There was it was absolutely out

1185
01:35:15.399 --> 01:35:19.560
of control. So they started making
some changes, including closing parking garages and

1186
01:35:19.600 --> 01:35:24.520
a few other things to limit the
ability of people to get in and out

1187
01:35:24.520 --> 01:35:27.840
of there and perhaps keep the crowds
down. Well, now the paper says

1188
01:35:27.880 --> 01:35:31.000
they're doing it to be racist.
This headline, how far can a city

1189
01:35:31.039 --> 01:35:36.119
go to keep black spring break crowds
out? Miami Beach tests the limits and

1190
01:35:36.239 --> 01:35:40.039
so you know, they throw that, they roll that hand grenade in there,

1191
01:35:40.079 --> 01:35:44.640
and at no point did the reporter
go, I wonder what other cities

1192
01:35:44.720 --> 01:35:48.840
do. I wonder how they handle
it. And they didn't even have to

1193
01:35:48.920 --> 01:35:54.479
leave the state. If you go
to the Panama City, all of these

1194
01:35:54.479 --> 01:35:59.800
things that the city that Miami is
wanting to do or Miami Beach, they

1195
01:36:00.119 --> 01:36:02.920
they already do. And the spring
break crowd in the you know, the

1196
01:36:02.960 --> 01:36:10.039
redneck riviera there is, I would
say, from what I've seen during the

1197
01:36:10.079 --> 01:36:16.720
bill O'Reilly investigative reports and whatnot,
that's predominantly a white crowd there. And

1198
01:36:16.800 --> 01:36:19.920
so the paper's thrown all this around
and they didn't even bother to see that

1199
01:36:20.000 --> 01:36:23.560
this is exactly how other cities have
tried to handle this
