Speaker 1: Dana Lashes of surd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech.
Speaker 2: It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida man.
Speaker 3: I'm not quite sure how something like this happens, but
it did. This is Fox thirty five and Orlando. A
Florida man allegedly swapped tags and stole a six five
hundred dollars piece of art for just fifty dollars. It
was in Lakeworth Beach, Florida. Six thousand, five hundred dollars.
He swapped a tag for fifty dollars at a business.
How are you a business and you don't know it?
It was a Palm Beach County Sheriff's office that responded.
They put photos on their Facebook page. They don't know
who the guy is.
Speaker 4: They're still trying to fight him.
Speaker 3: That seems a little crazy. Uh, how do you he would?
I mean he was able to pay for it. If
you're the cashier, you don't know that that's the big
expensive piece of art that you got, well then it's
worth less than worth less than fifty. So that guy
got robbed. That guy got robbed. If it was so,
they're looking for him. They're asking people to call Crime stoppers.
That's just a weird it's a weird story. Does it
even happen? Also, let's see here this m a machete threat.
Machete threat leads to a dramatic window escape and pursuit.
I'm trying to open this, but my mail is everything's
slow right now. This is k HQ Channel seven ABC.
The Pensacola, Florida. A Florida man is in jail following
a series of I would say dramatic events where victims
were threatened with a machete. The suspect jumped out of
a window and was evolved in a getaway. Roderick lewis
thirty nine years old.
Speaker 4: He is thirty nine.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, was charged with aggravated battery with the weapon,
resisting an officer without violence, and he had possession of marijuana.
His girlfriend, it's always a Crystal, forty one year old,
Crystal Sorrel damn you Crystal was charged with fleeing eluding.
Deputies were called to a custody dispute and apparently Louis
drove up in a jeep, got out with a machete
in his hand, and threatened them before leaving. According to
Escambia County Sheriff's office threatened the victims. He jumped through
a glass window while he was how do you do
it while you're detained? According to authorities, they claimed that
Lewis ran from deputies and got away. The next day,
a deputy saw Lewis's jeep. Sorel was driving and Lewis
was in the passenger seat. Deputy tried to get sold
to stop. She refused. Sped sped away seventy miles per hour,
So they conducted a pit maneuver. I don't know what
that is, but it sounds cool, which made the jeep
stop and Lewis took off running. And is that where
they throw the spikes down.
Speaker 2: It's when they bumped the back of the car to
the left of the right, depending which side of the
car they're on, and then it spins.
Speaker 4: Nice.
Speaker 2: That's the maneuver.
Speaker 4: Don't try that at home, kids.
Speaker 3: They finally caught him in the backyard of a home
and they arrested him. So he was he had injuries
and he's got as visible by his mugshot, he is
on thirteen thousand dollars bond uh. Okay this I'm immediately
getting into this a shrink wrap floor to man tried
to check in his luggage at the Miami International Airport.
It's like a flat Stanley maneuver. Remember flat Stanley. Many
things are not permitted in check bags, but apparently people
I don't know, so this is this is a story.
It was August twenty seventh when this happened, and they
said that a man who was described as tightly swaddled
and shrink wrap good heavens, tightly swaddled, hopped up on
the Airlines check encounter and a companion guided him to
the baggage dropped counter where he picked up the barcode
scanner and checked his actual dude friend wrapped up in
shrink wrapped for the flight. And then he sat on
the scale and people were like just looking.
Speaker 4: They were bewildered.
Speaker 3: It didn't say how much you weighed, but they said
that I don't care about how much it would they
just share videos of it, and I mean, that's he
tried to do it.
Speaker 4: I don't know if he made it on there. I
don't think you can do that.
Speaker 3: I think that there's like federal regulation what if you
identify as luggage though I.
Speaker 2: Wonder if it's even pressurized the same. I'm sure the
temperature is not the same.
Speaker 4: My temperature is totally not the same.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't even try it.
Speaker 3: That's why they say like short nosed dogs like Bracia
Fallx don't do well when you, you know, if you
check them. This has to be so stressful. I mean,
think about it, like flying anyway stressful. I can't imagine
being an animal being boarded. But the dude, though, what
if he identifies as a piece of luggage? Think about it?
Who are you to question his pronouns? What if he
identified his luggage? And also, how do you get out
of the shrink wrap? I would already be freaking out.
I don't like to be constrained like that. That would
it bothers me even thinking about it, that he's all
shrink wrap.
Speaker 4: That's just weird. People are weird. Why do they do this?
I don't know.
Speaker 3: And a Florida woman is accused of king chater on
a man's car. Alana Ohen, eighteen, faces charge is a
criminal mischief and she looks proud about it. Pombey, Florida.
She was arrested after she heavily damaged Feller's car. Twenty
three year old Charles Cooler and yeah, apparently there was
a little bit of a domestic incident and then she
found out that he cheated and then wrote cheater and
a little male copulatory organ ket it on the hood.
I can't say what it is.
Speaker 1: I played a famous supporting character, Sam Wise Gamgee and
the Lord of Drinks trilogy, and people have told me
for the last twenty four years since they've been watching that,
how much they feel that Sam is a hero. We've
been watching Kamala Harris in a very powerful supporting role
for the last three and a half years. She's now
stepped out. She's ready, she's strong, and I just want
to I don't want to miss this moment in history.
Speaker 3: You know, he blocked me on X Sam Wise, gamg
Gamgy Doris Days his mom and that dude blocked he
was an Ensino man on Austin Aston.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Oh, Patty Duke whatever, one of them blondes from the fifties,
Patty Duke whatever, that's his That was his mom. I
he blocked me after Parkland and I never was like
really mean or anything, but he was just a just
he was just a bag of male copulatory organs. I
just have no he was just like he was a
little jerk.
Speaker 4: I can't. It almost ruins it for me.
Speaker 3: Sam Way's games, you though, he's trying to compare Kamala
Harris to his character in what way welcome back to
the program? I know we have other audio we could play,
but I was like, no, I have to have this one.
Welcome back Dana Lash with you top of the second hour.
I cause you guys know, I'm a huge Lord of
the Rings fan, never fail. I can bring any situation back.
Why are you not eing like that, any situation back
to Lord of the Rings. Everything in life can be
walk right to Lord of the Rings, every single thing.
And you know, he's sort of like Sarmon switching sides there,
That's what he's like. And Kamala Harris, Kamala Harris would
be more like that one orc that tried and failed
to go after the Hobbits. You know what I mean,
just saying because she failed, that's my whole thing, Like
she was carrying out somebody's stuff and she couldn't do it.
Speaker 4: I don't know, I why are they going to do that?
Why do they have to do that?
Speaker 3: He's not the only cause it's Venice Film Festival, so
all the celebrities are there, and of course everybody's asking
these celebrities about Kamala Harris, which nothing is going to convince,
you know, flyover America to support Kamala Harris. Like asking
all of these overfed celebrities at the Venice Film Festival
to weigh in on what they think of her.
Speaker 4: You know, that's nothing. Nothing's going to do that.
Speaker 3: Come on, I mean, that's really I think a lot
of people were really they didn't know which way they
were going to go until Ben Stiller talked about it.
I'm not gonna hate on Ben Stiller because I will
say he's never been a jerk about it, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 4: Like Ben Stiller. Okay, ben Stiller.
Speaker 3: Can be wrong on Kamala Harris, that's fine, and he
can talk about you know, whatever he thinks, changes, et cetera.
I don't know why they need change. I mean, they've
been in charge for the past four years, so why
do you need change. In fact, he talks about it
here audio sound bout eleven. He's not a jerk.
Speaker 4: Not like Sean asked in is listen good good?
Speaker 1: You might answer this a quick question while you came
and what you like about Harris Platform.
Speaker 5: It was just very excited about moving forward and all
the energy and excitement that's around this movement right now.
Speaker 2: So that's why I'm.
Speaker 5: Here, because it's time for change and it seems like it's happening.
Speaker 4: You think she'll be able to sustain the momentum post
convention for sure? Do you think the race is going
to be close?
Speaker 5: It's going to be close, but you know everybody's motivated
at the work can make it happen. So and she's
and she and Tim Walls are just study incredible candidates.
Speaker 3: I mean, he's so wrong. He's so wrong it hurts me.
It's like kicking my soul in the jimmies if it
had those. It's so he's so wrong because I don't
dislike him, but he's not a jerk. He's entitled to
be wrong, and he was nice about being wrong, right.
He was like, I just think they're great candidates. He
didn't go, I think there are candidates are amazing in
Years of the Devil. He didn't say that he's so wrong,
but he wasn't a jerk. So I can accept that, right,
I can't accept Sean Assen like arguing with people on
X and being a jerk and then blocking people right
and left, or Mark Hamill, I mean, golly, that guy.
Yeah he's he's well, I would that's not toxic masculinity.
Oh that's right, Yeah, he's toxic femininity. Yeah, he just
looks toxic. He looks he just doesn't look like a
nice guy, or saying he was never a good actor,
that's why he never really. I mean, people consider and
talk about his voice acting. But okay, anyway, but Ben
Stiller's not a jerk about it, So I don't If
you're not a jerk, I'm cool with you. But if
you're mean, then I just feel like it's my duty
to you know, I'll match your energy. So pick how
we're gonna feel today. You know this, let's this, We'll
go with it like that. I don't get why they're
so excited about her now. They they loathed her. I
kept seeing I kept seeing this video and we we
can't play it because we'll probably get dinged on YouTube
that it's a Daily Show compilation. They made so much
fun of her. That was what a year ago. They
came out with this video a year ago and they
made so much fun of her. So much fun of her,
and now they're, oh, we're so excited. I mean, there's
so much excitement about this movement.
Speaker 4: What movement? They keep saying change and forward? What are
they changing from? We will?
Speaker 3: Well, you know, I guess you have to say change
because you can't go same. That doesn't sell as well.
Everyone's broke, and you have to act like it's someone
else's fault, even though you've been in charge for the
past four years.
Speaker 4: She's been vice president. Now they act like we don't
know where she came from.
Speaker 3: She's a breath of fresh air. She's been in the
Senate and then the vice president.
Speaker 4: What are you talking about? She's been here this whole
damn time. You guys are asking for a change from her.
I just can't. I can't get I can't get over it.
So I don't get it.
Speaker 3: I don't I don't understand what they're Make it make sense,
Make this make sense. But they're all the celebrities, they're
all in they're all in uh Venice for the Venice
Film Festival, and of course they're all going to be
asked this. I now, her interview is tonight Airs Tonight
with Dana Bash. Are we going to get some more
of a I don't know audio sound by eight. Explain

one big team, understanding all of the different parts that
fit together to create a team.
Speaker 2: She took four sentences to say one sentence.
Speaker 3: And she's talking to a high school band, you know,
high school kids.
Speaker 4: What is the team?
Speaker 2: Can you explain to us what a team is?

lot of bit of all.
Speaker 3: The trains or people are out there like, no, it's
SiZ say it's the way sid say, it's SiZ say,

Tell them Dana sent you.
Speaker 2: And now all of the news you would probably miss.
It's time for Dana's quick five.
Speaker 3: Nevada politician Robert Tellis was found guilty of killing journalist
Jeff Jerman and sentenced to life in prison yesterday. He
fatally stabbed this reporter in twenty twenty two. Democrat was
Clark County Public Administrator he looked down and shook his head.
I guess he thinks he should be able to stab
people to death and there not being any consequences. They
said that, according to the judge, the verdict should send
a message that can't silence the media, et cetera, et cetera.
Tell Us stabbed this guy, this Las Vegas Review Journal
order after a German exposed corruption in Tellus's office that
destroyed his political career and ended his marriage. And German
story was focusing on this hostile work environment in his
office and how because apparently there were people coming forward
and blowing the whistle on it. There was bullying, retaliation,
and an inappropriate relationship between tell Us and a staffer,
all of which he denied, and then the guy was
found dead outside of his house. So I'm just yeah,
and it's just weird to be that. In the video
when the verdict was read, he was shaking his head out.
By the way, he's a Democrat, in case she didn't know,
his party rhymes with Shemocrat Democrat Democratic.
Speaker 4: They just killed people.
Speaker 3: Living in tree field filled neighborhoods may reduce the risk
of heart disease. I don't understand what they said that
eight thousand trees planted in areas of South Louisville, Kentucky
as part of a research trial, and they used blood
and samples too. I think that there's probably more to
it than that, but let's just be dumb and say trees.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the trees.
Speaker 3: All of a sudden, everybody gets nicer and everyone's health
magically gets better. A ton officials shut down a boy's
ice cream stand, and then fundraisers and death threats followed.
Yeah America, Norwood, Massachusetts, bored and looking for something to do,
this little boy named Danny Doherty hatch to plan to
raise money for this brother's hockey team. He sold homemade
ice cream. He was selling vanilla shaved chocolate and fluff
or nutter to about twenty people. Then he got a
letter from Norwood Board of Health saying that you have
to shut it down. They said that the twelve year
old set up violated their food code because apparently the
state of Massachusetts doesn't think that people who go and
buy ice cream from a twelve year old stand might
not realize that a twelve year old made it and
might mistake themselves for being in a professional grocery store,
you know, because there isn't any other indications to let
them know that they're two separate areas and two separate
situations and they don't know which one they may be in. Yeah,
so they actually had to take it down, and then
the officials, I mean, they received a wave of pushback.
And I really am I supposed to be feel bad
for anybody in the story other than the twelve year old,
because I don't. I really don't. The kid's mom encouraged
our son to start.
Speaker 4: I thought it was great.
Speaker 3: You know, he could be out there doing drugs or
you know, shooting people up all the Chicago. But hey,
what he's not. He's out there making money like a
good little capitalist. And you can't have that in Massachusetts.
Speaker 4: No money to be made.
Speaker 3: Killing of invasive owls is to ramp up on the
West coast in a bid to save the native birds.
I love it when leftists discover cling herds. They're like, wow,
we're gonna have to kill some of them to save them.
You mean, like calling the herds what you always bitch
and moan about whenever ranchers and farmers do it. Us
wildlife officials are drastically scaling up efforts to kill invasive
barred owls. They're crowding out imperiled native owls. Can I
have some, Like, why don't you just make it to
where I can have some of them as pets.
Speaker 4: I've always wanted an owl. I have a horror story
about it.
Speaker 3: Now, well, let's not talk about that right now. Also,
Peloton is horrible, and they're slammed for charging a ninety
five dollars activation fee because people are selling I have
a Peloton bike if anybody wants to buy it, I've
used it five times. The ninety five dollars activation fee
because they're trying to get more money now that people
are reselling them. So there's this Washington Free Beacon piece,
Washington Free Beacon that has this peace out, and they
noted that apparently she said that she had worked at
McDonald's doing fries, but she never mentioned it until she
ran for president, right, so she said I did fry.
She claims that she worked at McDonald's. This is another
big thing. Now she said she worked at McDonald's after
she but her after she graduated college. They noted that
her resume doesn't mention this.
Speaker 4: And she was on.
Speaker 3: I think it was Drew Barrymore show, because this came
back up now in the Campaig and one of them said, oh,
I heard a rumor that you worked at McDonald's and
she goes, yes, I did. I did fries and then
I was the cashier and you know, ha haha. She's
just like us, right, that's e And this now that there,
now the campaign is trying to leverage this as a
way of, I think, trying to humanize her.
Speaker 4: Look, she's just like you. She also worked.
Speaker 3: At McDonald's or something to that effect, and I don't
know because now nobody can find anything about it. And
then there's the Politico. There was the thing in Politico,
uh that had a campaign ad and it was an
early cut so it hasn't aired yet, and it was
August fourteenth, and they said that she worked at McDonald's
to pay her way through college. So it went from casually,
I worked at McDonald's, I did fries, and then I
did this too. She had to work at McDonald's to
pay her way through college. And that's the way that
the campaign is representing it. And the Free Politico ran
that story and the Free Beacon was asking, Okay, well,
when did she work there. Why is this only now
just coming up? And is that true? And it sounds
weird to ask whether or not that's true. But then
when you consider her running mate and all this stuff,
the goofy stuff that he's light about. I don't understand
why people lie over the most, the easiest, most demonstrably
proven false things. I will never in all of my
years that will never understand why people lie about this
stupid stuff?
Speaker 4: Why why would you.
Speaker 3: Make up a thing about it I work and then
turn it into a big thing that you know you're
going to get.
Speaker 4: Fact checked on. Why would you do that?
Speaker 3: So then the New York Times apparently wrote about how
she went returned to the Bay Area. I'm reading this
returned to the Bay Area for a summer during college
when she worked at a McDonald's in Alameda, next to
Oakland and she was attending college at Howard University in DC.
They said some of the details of the job varied,
others are murky, okay. And then she had her memoir
that she came out with ahead of her twenty twenty
primary run, in which she said that she held many
jobs in college and she didn't mention McDonald's. Then she
just said she held many jobs in college, and then
she had a whole chapter per Free Beacon devoted to
the industry's quote unquote starvation wages. She also doesn't mention
it in her two thousand and nine book and the
other I don't know how many biographies of this woman
we need.
Speaker 4: There was like four of them.
Speaker 3: Apparently there's another one in twenty one that doesn't mention it.
But now the campaign's making a big deal out of it.
So of course, you know, the Free Beacon's like, let's
go out and look. So they went and they were
looking at all of this and apparently there's no evidence
of it. She only lists like three jobs on this
one application. This was Hasting's College of Law. She only
listened to to one. She never mentioned McDonald's. She only
listened like, listed like three other jobs. Is she like,
is this like poverty cosplay? So you're faking this so
that you can seem like you're one of the people.
I'm just trying to understand, you know, her her approach here.
I can't stand when people do that either, you know
what I can't. That's another thing I can't. I'm gonna
tell you all something that I can't I also cannot stand.
I cannot stand when people fake being country. That aggravates
me to no when and these these politicians and they
see it with Waltz and I see what these other
people they do this all the time like they're totally
you know, regular, average, everyday coast to coastal people. Then
they go over to fly over Nation and all of
a sudden they get a twang and then they try
to play up like redneck roots or something. You're never
gonna full actual rednecks playing as a redneck.
Speaker 4: You're never gonna do this.
Speaker 3: You're never gonna go to Appalachia Country and like fake
out people and acting like you're you're one of them,
And never gonna go to southern Missouri and fake people
out and act like you're one of them. You're never
gonna go to Texas and you know, in East Texas
and fake people out and act like you're one of them.
It's never gonna happen. I don't know why people try
to do this. You're not gonna act like you're one
of the poors or one of the proletariat or one
of the plebs. You're not gonna fake people out. They
can see you coming a mile away, and the only
people who buy into it are the people who are
blind enough and stupid enough to vote for you, regardless.
Speaker 4: Why they do this, I have no clue. I do
not get it.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 3: Bill Clinton used to do that all the time. I
remember when I was in high school, and I always
thought it was weird. Well, helly, yeah, Biden's done it.
Biden's like, yeah, he got lean. I mean, You're not gonna.
Speaker 4: Fool these people. These people.
Speaker 3: Look, I'm gonna tell you cause I got friends who
are from Appalachia, and then I've got family from southern Missouri.
You're talking about hibilis and moonshiners. You are not gonna
freak out people whose entire families have come up running
away from the system trying to make that moonshine. You
are not gonna You're not gonna face them people out.
They are used to sniffing you out. They know you.
You're a fed, they know you. Why do you think
that you're I don't get this. They just think everybody's dumb,
is what it is.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: The whole thing, though, is fascinating to me. Why they
and then they get they get themselves in trouble. I
don't know if this is because okay, so this is only.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: I think the interview has already been.
Speaker 3: Pre taped, so I doubt this story is gonna come up.
But I do think it's an interesting question. Why do
you feel the need to fake this stuff? What is
it about your candidacy that you feel like you need
to manufacture backgrounds like this? Why can't you just reach
people through your policy instead of having to fabricate this,
you know, fantastical background for yourself. That would be a
tough question for them, wouldn't it. Yeah, And I think
that's one that she'd answer.
