Speaker 1: It wasn't just as somebody messed with Ross's board. It's
Speaker 1: that they cleaned it yesterday. And then to clean it
Speaker 1: you have to like remove of stickers and you got
Speaker 1: to lift the whole thing up, and like if you
Speaker 1: bump one setting like ten decibels, he notices. Now they like,
Speaker 1: but they didn't put the stickers back where they normally go,
Speaker 1: and so we didn't even know if the show was
Speaker 1: going to work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, your microphone stickers moved over to the other side,
Speaker 2: and the one is missing, and mine was all over
Speaker 2: the place, and like buttons were up and down. I'm like,
Speaker 2: what happened here? Man?
Speaker 1: The thing that you wanted to happen just in the
Speaker 1: you know, but in a hurricane esque manner.
Speaker 2: So like, hey, I need that one button fixed, and
Speaker 2: they're like, sure, we'll do that, and then all over
Speaker 2: the board.
Speaker 1: Well, we don't even know if that button's fixed. Well,
Speaker 1: I guess we'll find out here at whenever I go
Speaker 1: to break right, So fingers crossed for that. Maybe we
Speaker 1: should run a betting pool. See how that goes.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: Any who, Good morning to all of you, Happy Friday.
Speaker 1: You made it this far, and if you think about it,
Speaker 1: next Friday, we won't even be here. Do you see
Speaker 1: Trevor's email yesterday? He's falling into the thing again, isn't he.
Speaker 2: I was gonna rin him back and be like, listen, man,
Speaker 2: I talked to Tim. He's a high up in the company.
Speaker 2: You probably never heard of him, but yeah, wow, Tim
Speaker 2: said we should take the entire week off, but he
Speaker 2: doesn't want it to get docked off of our alloted
Speaker 2: time for vacation. Is a great dude, Yeah, Tim is like,
Speaker 2: just take it, but actually put your hours in like normal.
Speaker 2: You know, I wanted to affect your vacation time that
Speaker 2: you have.
Speaker 1: You know, it's a very patriotic thing Tim's doing, you know,
Speaker 1: so we can maximum celebrate this country.
Speaker 2: But I didn't get back to him.
Speaker 1: M hm, did you No, I was very busy yesterday.
Speaker 1: I was very busy wearing a red, white and blue
Speaker 1: hat and then running into somebody who looks at me
Speaker 1: and goes, oh, your Bill's fan too, even though the
Speaker 1: hat clearly says red Moose Brewing. So then so clearly
Speaker 1: it's a listener who understands your obsession with the Bills
Speaker 1: assumed I was a Bills fan, which means when we
Speaker 1: talk about the Bills. We always talk about the Vikings,
Speaker 1: so he just tunes me out and then assume, as
Speaker 1: I'm a Bills fan, but I'm trying to use SUBTRIFUSI
Speaker 1: around it. So now I can't wear this hat if
Speaker 1: people are thinking I'm a Bills fan, not because I
Speaker 1: dislike the Bills. The Bills and the Vikings have so
Speaker 1: much in common. Four time losers A kicker one year
Speaker 1: was our downfall, like a good kicker who just had
Speaker 1: a bad moment, Like we don't do fire tables, but
Speaker 1: we do tailgate in you know, fifty thousand below degree weather.
Speaker 1: So I'm not offended by it. But come on, bro, No,
Speaker 1: I say you're head this morning. What I did was
Speaker 1: I read it? Oh did you and you came to
Speaker 1: a conclusion that it was not a Bills hat?
Speaker 2: That is correct.
Speaker 1: Yes, ross has a Bill's lunch box in there.
Speaker 2: Do you have it today?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, there it is.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and he's got his hat and his lunch.
Speaker 1: But you try do you have a Bill's trapper keeper
Speaker 1: to today?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: No, no, I got my my piggy wiggly hat today. Oh, yes,
Speaker 1: day you had the Bill's hat. You know once we started,
Speaker 1: He's not wearing a hat, headphones.
Speaker 2: But yesterday I was like in full Bill's regalia, Bill's
Speaker 2: Homer gear. I had my Bill's cooler lunch box, my
Speaker 2: Bill's hat, and I was wearing my Bill's cover like
Speaker 2: a jacket thing. So he's got his Bill's thong on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's every morning man, so really yeah, so uh yeah, yeah, words, words.
Speaker 2: Bro, I'm not gonna lie. Sometimes I walk and walk
Speaker 2: around and I'm like, this is a bit too much.
Speaker 2: Maybe they gotta think I'm Marv Levy. It's funny.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, No, this has a brewery in Pittsburgh. Guys
Speaker 1: are big listeners, so let me get him a shout
Speaker 1: out there. So AnyWho, all right, So that's uh, that's
Speaker 1: that's how we're getting going this morning.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 1: Coming up on the show, Pete Callender will join us.
Speaker 1: That'll be at eight o five. Looking forward to that.
Speaker 1: I sent him that promo you made, Pete. I'm like
Speaker 1: or the Rejoiner. If you guys haven't heard it, we'll
Speaker 1: just listen throughout the show and now, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: use it as bait. We're not gonna play it for
Speaker 1: you right now. You gotta listen. Then we come back
Speaker 1: from break right before we talk. In some of the segments,
Speaker 1: you will hear it. It's really really fazy, he laughed.
Speaker 1: I'm like, bro, you should you can steal that. You're
Speaker 1: not gonna hurt Ross's feelings. So anyway, we'll talk to
Speaker 1: Pete because Lord knows, there's a enough going on. So
Speaker 1: I see that we've now transitioned from because the.
Speaker 2: Media is so predictable.
Speaker 1: We've transitioned from well, I don't know if those bombs
Speaker 1: really blew anything up, because now it's becoming apparent it
Speaker 1: clearly clearly did have multiple other reports, so I know
Speaker 1: they still don't believe it, but they have to have
Speaker 1: kind of pivots. So now we're gonna fixate on the
Speaker 1: fact that I ran, uh, you know, just took all
Speaker 1: that uranium out of there, because there were some trucks
Speaker 1: that showed up a few days before. They might have
Speaker 1: moved some stuff, but like everybody's an expert, and they're
Speaker 1: saying stuff because you know, Trump said I don't have
Speaker 1: the thing in front. But Trump basically said, you.
Speaker 2: Don't just move.
Speaker 1: You don't show up with an F two point fifty
Speaker 1: and move that. And then people are like, well, I mean,
Speaker 1: we're only talking about a few hundred pounds blah blah blah,
Speaker 1: and you could carry that in a future because they
Speaker 1: think you carry it in there in your hands or something. Right,
Speaker 1: you just go in there and grab the glowy rocks
Speaker 1: and get out of there.
Speaker 2: H You put it in the cooler with the wheels,
Speaker 2: and then you drag it through the sand.
Speaker 1: Oh, go get one of those beach buggy things that
Speaker 1: doesn't actually even work that well because sand. Right, So
Speaker 1: they're like, God, if you guys just go in and
Speaker 1: you know, load up their pockets and go out there,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, then the satellite would show bodies, right,
Speaker 1: because that's not how it works, you absolute adult. So
Speaker 1: we're gonna have this argument today. I guess this is
Speaker 1: going this is what the media is going to fixate on.
Speaker 1: Super excited about that, And NBC News has the breaking
Speaker 1: nest hold on it must have done something to my
Speaker 1: board too, because I clearly did not turn those off
Speaker 1: yesterday and I did not de select them. But also
Speaker 1: my board doesn't look like it was cleaned since the Bisentennial.
Speaker 1: So anyway, the breaking nest of news from NBC News
Speaker 1: that I will share with you here we go, you
Speaker 1: might want to sit down for this ross? Are you
Speaker 1: sitting down for this breaking news? You know I went
Speaker 1: pron okay, Oh, it's on a Bill's yoga, Matt, Where
Speaker 1: did that come from? Man, he's got everything. San Francisco
Speaker 1: bookstore stops selling JK. Rallying titles due to Harry Potter's
Speaker 1: authors anti transviews. They wrote a whole damn breaking news
Speaker 1: story that a single bookstore at San Francisco says they're
Speaker 1: not selling Harry Potter books anymore.
Speaker 2: You know this is probably gonna break JK. Rowling. You
Speaker 2: think this is the straw? Right? That's it?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: Man?
Speaker 1: She has done a bookstore at San Francisco called Booksmith
Speaker 1: in the hate Ashbury. So literally, they're like in the
Speaker 1: moon Battist of moona the moon battiest part of a
Speaker 1: moon battist city. One bookstore is one. It's one bookstore
Speaker 1: not selling Harry Potter titles.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: Booksmith, which opened in nineteen seventy Did I get enough
Speaker 1: breaking news on this because it's labeled break news? Booksmith,
Speaker 1: which opened in nineteen seventy six, said the final straw
Speaker 1: came last month, when Rolling announced on social media she
Speaker 1: would use her personal wealth to fund JK Ralling Women's Fund,
Speaker 1: which describes itself as a legal fund to support excuse me,
Speaker 1: individuals and organizations fighting to retain women's sex based rights
Speaker 1: in the workplace, in public life, and in protected female spaces.
Speaker 1: Though the fund doesn't mention trans people specifically, I want
Speaker 1: you to understand that somebody purporting to be a journalist
Speaker 1: wrote the next two things I'm going to read you
Speaker 1: has been vocally opposed to trans women's inclusion in women's
Speaker 1: spaces and proponents of efforts to restrict trans rights. See,
Speaker 1: we throw this rights thing in there. There is no
Speaker 1: there is no inherent right. That's not that's not a right.
Speaker 1: You don't have a right to be able to use
Speaker 1: a specific bathroom because that is not what That is
Speaker 1: not a sex based discrimination, and that is what is
Speaker 1: in the law.
Speaker 2: Understand this.
Speaker 1: The Obama administration wanted to pretend that sex and gender
Speaker 1: were the same after we were told that they weren't
Speaker 1: for years, just so they didn't have to try to
Speaker 1: get this included within civil rights legislation. That was that's
Speaker 1: not a thing. I know, you guys wanted it to
Speaker 1: be a thing, and Obama and uh, Loretta the Age.
Speaker 1: At the time, they tried to make it a thing,
Speaker 1: but it's not a thing, and subsequent court rulings have
Speaker 1: pointed out that those those things are not the same word.
Speaker 2: But whatever.
Speaker 1: With this announcement, we've decided to stop carrying her books,
Speaker 1: aid Booksmith in a statement on it Instagram.
Speaker 2: We don't know, dude.
Speaker 1: I laughed after our meeting or after our client thing
Speaker 1: the other day when that salesperson came up and was like,
Speaker 1: what's Ross, what's your Instagram? You're like, I just gave
Speaker 1: a look. I'm like, no, Ross, what's your blue Sky?
Speaker 1: What's your Yeah, you know I know of that one either. Oh,
Speaker 1: it's so weird. With this announcement, we've decided to stop
Speaker 1: carrying her books. We don't know exactly what our new
Speaker 1: women's fund will entail. Well, hold on, so you've made
Speaker 1: this this decision. NBC News sent a national reporter out
Speaker 1: to cover this breaking news, and you just said you're
Speaker 1: boycotting a thing you don't understand.
Speaker 2: Good on you.
Speaker 1: A representative for Rallying said the authors was unavailable for
Speaker 1: common and probably then immediately text her I was like,
Speaker 1: better better downsize these.
Speaker 2: Boycotts because you see them all the time in social media.
Speaker 2: We're like, we're gonna boycott her, We're going to bring
Speaker 2: down JK. I don't think they understand how much money
Speaker 2: she has. Like here's the thing, Like everything could disappear tomorrow,
Speaker 2: like all the books. Yes, right, she could go her
Speaker 2: the rest of her lifetime, her life span. I was
Speaker 2: selling another book. She's a billionaire. She has so much money. Yeah,
Speaker 2: she's kind of set. You're not going to break the woman.
Speaker 2: They have theme parks and merchandise and come on, what
Speaker 2: are you even doing here? Oh, here's the really reporter
Speaker 2: eat party ready, because this is this is is Edward R.
Speaker 2: Murrow style journalism right here, just the facts, right. Her
Speaker 2: views have become more extreme over the years. We you've
Speaker 2: now made a judgment call as a reporter. By the way,
Speaker 2: the majority of people in the country in which you're
Speaker 2: reporting agree with her. And I don't mean fifty one percent,
Speaker 2: it's like seventy seventy some percent, eighty percent on polling.
Speaker 2: As it pertains to h inclusion of women's sports and
Speaker 2: uh and uh and uh like locker room stuff, you know,
Speaker 2: and their their law system over there, like their legal
Speaker 2: system has pretty much backed her up as well, like
Speaker 2: their version of the Supreme Court over there, like yeah,
Speaker 2: the big ruler this year. Yeah, I had a lot
Speaker 2: of respects. They're ahead of us when it comes to
Speaker 2: this stuff like they you know, hey, the bathroom stuff
Speaker 2: and the surgery for teens, like they've already like gone
Speaker 2: a different direction. So I mean her her point of
Speaker 2: view is the mainstream legal point of view now.
Speaker 1: According to the reporter here, her views have become more
Speaker 1: extreme over the years, with her recently referring to trans
Speaker 1: women as men on social media. In August, she also
Speaker 1: perpetrated misinformation that Algerian Olympic boxer a main khaliphism. Man,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry this story was printed yesterday. When did we
Speaker 1: have the story the other day when they DNA tested
Speaker 1: that person and determined they were a man. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: was like a month ago, like a month ago, So
Speaker 1: the NBC News didn't get that story. Who is this report?
Speaker 1: Was this a little to Joe Your cobby is a
Speaker 1: reporter for NBC out Okay, so she is a LGBT
Speaker 1: I guess focused NBC News reporter who had no interest
Speaker 1: in the story. Where the box the Regulatory Committee for
Speaker 1: Boxing International Boxing, which the story just happened, Joe.
Speaker 2: This is actually from Sports Illustrated a day ago. Well,
Speaker 2: what do they know about sports anyway? Boxing chief demands
Speaker 2: a main Khaliph be stripped of gold medal for quote
Speaker 2: abnormal test results.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well abnormal is one way to write. Arguably they
Speaker 1: were normal. Yes, some would say so.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh man, I'm sorry to hit you with that breaking
Speaker 1: news this morning, but one bookstore in one city, in
Speaker 1: one country is not going to sell JK. Rollings Harry
Speaker 1: Potter series anymore. And now she'll starve to death and
Speaker 1: it's all your fault. See this on Twitter. So that
Speaker 1: breaking news NBC news story we just did. Somebody posted
Speaker 1: a bunch of social media posting the comments from this
Speaker 1: bookstore is banning the JK. Ralling and the bookstore has
Speaker 1: been on a diatribe for the last year over book bands,
Speaker 1: and they donate copies of these apparently these books that
Speaker 1: were banned, which by the way, they're not banned, right
Speaker 1: if you're able to purchase them and distribute them and
Speaker 1: sell them, they're clearly not banned. They are age appropriated
Speaker 1: in schools, which is something we do. There's a reason
Speaker 1: that you can't go check out in the movie section
Speaker 1: of somebody these school libraries, Debbie does Dallas. Okay, but
Speaker 1: if that is happening at your school, let me know,
Speaker 1: because what the hell. Yeah, it's not a book band,
Speaker 1: and they've been absolutely apoplectic over it, and so they've
Speaker 1: been shipping books to like Missouri and other states to
Speaker 1: be distributed to the to the utes and then they're like, ah,
Speaker 1: we're going to do the thing, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: you didn't do a book band.
Speaker 2: You decide.
Speaker 1: You made a decision based on what you think your
Speaker 1: customers want, and that decision probably will play well in
Speaker 1: the moonbattiest section of San Francisco. Austin Paul got you
Speaker 1: in a box this morning for no reason that I
Speaker 1: understand why he didn't just send this yesterday, which means
Speaker 1: he's been either sitting on it for twenty four hours
Speaker 1: or you know, it was not sober. He wants you
Speaker 1: to know that New Balance, the shoes that you talked
Speaker 1: about enjoying yesterday were founded in Boston. Yeah, guys, you're
Speaker 1: gonna have to burn them. Tell them to do it,
Speaker 1: you know what. Tell We'll tell people you're burning them
Speaker 1: to protest. JK and NBC News We can write a
Speaker 1: story about you.
Speaker 2: I set them on fire, and I step on our books.
Speaker 2: It's going to take both the city of Boston as
Speaker 2: well as JK Rowling down. This is the one.
Speaker 1: We invented new ballanced shoes. You also invented meanness, all right,
Speaker 1: and rudeness. Congrats on that. I understand why the British
Speaker 1: are like, We'm not to shoot some.
Speaker 2: Of these guys. So I'm kidding. I'm kidding. My hatred
Speaker 2: for Boston isn't necessarily the city, right, It's it's like,
Speaker 2: it's you know.
Speaker 1: It's the sports fans sports thing. Yeah, I'm a Bills
Speaker 1: fan and the Patriots beat our ass for decades and
Speaker 1: I'm a little salty, a little better about that still, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, and then also baseball.
Speaker 2: That's all comes down to. I visited Boston many times.
Speaker 2: It's a nice city.
Speaker 1: I loved back in the day. You still like going
Speaker 1: to tower records there?
Speaker 2: It was fun. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Uh, anyway, thank you for that. I will say this,
Speaker 1: I nineteen o six, Really what I first, New balanced
Speaker 1: shoes kind of came into fashion what like fifteen years ago.
Speaker 2: They're playing the long game, dude.
Speaker 1: No, it's just that's pure Boston just you know, really lazy.
Speaker 1: You'll get around to it. So yeah, now that fits,
Speaker 1: all right, Boston Paul er excited, I think it is.
Speaker 1: He's still butt hurt that there's another Paul. He's he's
Speaker 1: like a jealous woman who saw your new coworker. He's
Speaker 1: kind of hot, and she's like, did you talk to
Speaker 1: dev at work today? Yeah, that's what's going on here.
Speaker 1: He's he's jelly. It's okay, Boston Paul. You're the og man,
Speaker 1: You're the oest of Gez. So you got that going
Speaker 1: for you, all right, six thirty seven here on the
Speaker 1: CaCO Day Radio program. Uh, Boston Paul, this story, this
Speaker 1: next story or this question probably not one you can
Speaker 1: answer because people handing out new Balance shoe facts. That's
Speaker 1: a pretty white thing to do. Jamal Bowman, on the
Speaker 1: other hand, wants to talk about the black experience. So
Speaker 1: this is former Congressman Jamal Bowman. Uh uh, fire alarm
Speaker 1: pullar enthusiast. That dude who said this yesterday? Why and
Speaker 1: this is what it was taught? Okay, So he's addressing
Speaker 1: why there are there are specifically higher issue or higher
Speaker 1: rates of things like diabetes and various other health concerns
Speaker 1: within the black community. I mean and that and that
Speaker 1: is statistically correct. Some things are more prevalent within the
Speaker 1: black community. A lot of these things are are are
Speaker 1: more prevalent in uh in lower socioeconomic communities.
Speaker 2: It's a lot of its nutrition stuff.
Speaker 1: These are all valid discussions, right absolutely, since you have
Speaker 1: a higher propensity in many communities if you are poor
Speaker 1: to also be black. That is like, it makes sense
Speaker 1: why this is. By the way, I'm not advocating for it.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying that there are explanations and there are
Speaker 1: discussions that you can have and we and we're having
Speaker 1: a big one of those. As it pertains to welfare benefits.
Speaker 1: It is not just about the black community, but is
Speaker 1: about the health of people who utilize food substance progress
Speaker 1: subsistence programs. But Bowman's decided to go in a different
Speaker 1: direction on this. So rather than having any of those
Speaker 1: adult discussions or medical discussions, he's convinced that black health
Speaker 1: issues are because and I'm going to read this verbatim
Speaker 1: because it's insane enough I don't want to get tagged
Speaker 1: with it. So quoted, quote quote quote, Jamal Bowman blames
Speaker 1: black health issues on being called the N word every day?
Speaker 2: Is that happening? Is that? I mean maybe by each other?
Speaker 2: Is that?
Speaker 1: Is he trying to make an introspective point of that. No,
Speaker 1: he's not. I just I just want to clarify, that's
Speaker 1: not he's claiming that people who are not black every
Speaker 1: day are calling people who are black the N word
Speaker 1: in the And so if you're black, every day somebody
Speaker 1: calls you a hard r and it's and it's contributing
Speaker 1: to negative health. I And by the way, if that's happening,
Speaker 1: that's a problem. That's that's a real problem.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: I would say the vast majority of people are uncomfortable
Speaker 2: with that word. Yes, you know, if you disagree with that, Okay,
Speaker 2: that's fine, it's your opinion. But that's you know, that
Speaker 2: is most people. Most people are like that. That makes
Speaker 2: me uncomfortable on abro. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Also, if somebody, if if that works you, I mean,
Speaker 1: if somebody, you'd be canceled in a heartbeat, well you
Speaker 1: would say you can round the number, uh per week
Speaker 1: will go perk. How many black people per week do
Speaker 1: you call the hard art of their face?
Speaker 2: That would be absolutely zero? Oh okay, all right, going back,
Speaker 2: let me check my files here going back about forty
Speaker 2: six years forty five years.
Speaker 1: Now, somebody we work with did call Ross the N
Speaker 1: word and he was like, hey, no, it's his friend,
Speaker 1: but it's like the dude's black. Just to be clear,
Speaker 1: but that other thing, if that's how I need to
Speaker 1: So for any of my black listeners, who Jamal Bowman
Speaker 1: wouldn't believe we have any and he would be wrong clearly,
Speaker 1: as evidenced by Jamal and many others who have called
Speaker 1: over the years. Is this literally like every day some
Speaker 1: dude and Coveralls comes over to you and screams the
Speaker 1: N word at you? Is that your daily experience living
Speaker 1: here in North Carolina wherever you might be streaming the
Speaker 1: show from. I want to know. I want to know.
Speaker 1: And again he's not claiming in the with the a
Speaker 1: you know, where it may be two black guys talking
Speaker 1: and they use the N word with each other. He's
Speaker 1: he's claiming that white people are screaming hard are every
Speaker 1: day at black people and that it's contributing to it's
Speaker 1: making them unhealthy. So eight eight eight nine three four
Speaker 1: seven eight seven four I'm just curious how many times
Speaker 1: a day this happens. I had no idea until Jamal
Speaker 1: Bowman just told me. I want to be.
Speaker 2: Educated on this.
Speaker 1: Because here's the problem, and I understand that it's it's
Speaker 1: it's just a minuscule possibility. I think there's a possibility
Speaker 1: that Jamal Bowman is lying.
Speaker 2: Wait, are you see he's making stuff up.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying he thought that was the button to
Speaker 1: open the door, right, remember that. He's like, ah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's how you open the door by pulling the red
Speaker 1: thing on the wall that we've seen in every building
Speaker 1: throughout the entirety of our lives. If you're Jamal Bowman
Speaker 1: in our age, is.
Speaker 2: The one thing you learn in school is hey, don't
Speaker 2: pull that unless you really need to pull that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like you have a test coming up or something.
Speaker 1: Did you did you know how long did you believe
Speaker 1: that if you pull it, squidding could come out at you?
Speaker 2: Did you ever have that?
Speaker 1: That was the thing that I literally had teachers tell
Speaker 1: us like, if you pull that, it'll shoot ink on
Speaker 1: you said, we'll know who pulled it.
Speaker 2: No, I didn't. I didn't hear that. But what we
Speaker 2: were told was if you pulled it, there was like
Speaker 2: it's sort of like when you shoot a gun. There's residue,
Speaker 2: you know, on your hand, right, like right, you put
Speaker 2: it under a light. We were told that if you
Speaker 2: pull it, there's like a light that can shine on
Speaker 2: your hand to show that you pulled it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's not that unless you're a kid, then there is.
Speaker 1: And don't pull fire alight.
Speaker 5: I know.
Speaker 2: If you're in school, that's the thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, school was yeah, different, totally different. We are also
Speaker 1: told in the we go to the pool, because we
Speaker 1: had a big city pool, that if you if you
Speaker 1: go number one in it, there's a chemical in there
Speaker 1: that will turn the water green and we'll know and
Speaker 1: then you'll be banned from the pool. Let's just say, uh,
Speaker 1: the test did not determine that to be true. So anyway,
Speaker 1: I love dude. What was the craziest crap that adults
Speaker 1: told you as a kid just to get you to
Speaker 1: not do stuff or to do stuff?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Oh, you do that?
Speaker 1: Your face, you make that face, your face is gonna
Speaker 1: freeze that way.
Speaker 2: But yeah, no, the.
Speaker 1: Pull the fire alarm thing and then the pool thing.
Speaker 1: It was a very long time as a kid. I
Speaker 1: assume those to be true because adults that I trusted
Speaker 1: were telling me that. Now I realized why they were
Speaker 1: telling me that, and I'm cool with that. I think
Speaker 1: you should lie to children. I saw I saw an
Speaker 1: interview with some parenting advocate who's like, you should never
Speaker 1: lie to children, even even the positive lies, And you
Speaker 1: would you adults out there know exactly the positive lies
Speaker 1: that I'm referring to, but you should. You should never
Speaker 1: lie to children about that. You should never lie to
Speaker 1: children about anything. And I'm like, no, you got to
Speaker 1: lie to children sometimes, Roz. I was watching an interview
Speaker 1: of these parents. There's like woke parenting advocates like, oh,
Speaker 1: you can't lie to your kids about anything, even the
Speaker 1: fun stuff, you know, things around holidays and various things,
Speaker 1: like they can't lie to children. And I'm like, why
Speaker 1: would you? Why would you rob that child of that?
Speaker 1: Why would you rob that child of that? You absolute
Speaker 1: lunatic anyway, six forty five, hang on, hang on, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna find the I'm gonna find the pitch, so we
Speaker 1: get it. We get all sorts of interview pitches. Most
Speaker 1: of them are awful, and they're from people you've never
Speaker 1: heard of, because you know, somebody is trying to somebody
Speaker 1: wants to raise their corporate profile. Or whatever, so they
Speaker 1: hire a PR person to send out these horrible, horrible
Speaker 1: ideas for interviews. They're not they're entertaining to nobody. But
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people who do this kind of
Speaker 1: radio who can't that just do interviews, and if some
Speaker 1: of them doing very well and they have high level guests,
Speaker 1: Joe Rogan to be a good example of that. But
Speaker 1: most of the ones that you get in your inbox
Speaker 1: or dog crap. And I don't know if anybody, I
Speaker 1: don't know who's booking him. But every now and then
Speaker 1: I see one or a name I recognize, and this
Speaker 1: one hit me yesterday, and my first thing I said
Speaker 1: is I thought he died. So I got an interview
Speaker 1: pitch for hold On, hold On because I don'ton't even
Speaker 1: see what the premise is real quick, this one from yesterday, Yeah,
Speaker 1: here we go. It's Heyksey, would you like to have
Speaker 1: Dick Morris on the show to talk about the big
Speaker 1: beautiful Bill? And I'm thinking back, I'm like, honestly, I
Speaker 1: thought Dick Morris had died when he left The five.
Speaker 1: I knew he had some issue to some health issues.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, thought he passed away too. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 2: not rooting for his death. I want to be clear.
Speaker 2: Just I haven't seen him anywhere like anything like videos, audio. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so is he still alive?
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know. They're pitching him for an interview.
Speaker 1: I almost do. I want to book it to see
Speaker 1: if it's a ghost like it's all echoey yeah, or
Speaker 1: it's just his publicist with a Ouiji board and you
Speaker 1: can hear it moving around.
Speaker 2: She's answering questions. I can't talk now. I'm booking pap
Speaker 2: huw Canada. Oh really yeah?
Speaker 1: All right, Well Lost does most of the book and
Speaker 1: he's got some thoughts on immigration and where this is
Speaker 1: gonna go. Okay, yeah, all right, good good.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I tried.
Speaker 1: I tried to book The Founding Fathers one time, and
Speaker 1: it didn't it. We didn't get the effect that we wanted.
Speaker 1: So we get we get pitches from psychics, right and then,
Speaker 1: but and every now and then you get the ones
Speaker 1: that will talk to dead people, which are the worst
Speaker 1: of the psychics. In my pit ross, those are the
Speaker 1: ones you hate the most, where people are like, yeah,
Speaker 1: come talk, Come pay me money and I'll talk to
Speaker 1: your mother for you, dude.
Speaker 2: It pisses me off so bad. Yeah, even when George
Speaker 2: Nori has them on and he's been for a while now,
Speaker 2: passed like I don't know, forever now, he's had been
Speaker 2: on like a big psychic kick, and it drives me nuts.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, I'm like, let's let's book this chick
Speaker 1: and we'll get the Founding fathers to answer questions. But
Speaker 1: apparently it doesn't work like that. And then when I
Speaker 1: asked how does it work? I never got a satisfactory answer,
Speaker 1: so that didn't work. And then we had another psychic
Speaker 1: on one time because it was around Halloween, and she wasn't able.
Speaker 2: To do it either.
Speaker 1: So oh no, oh yeah, dude, have you I gotta
Speaker 1: find what this is. I saw the weirdest thing yesterday.
Speaker 1: So there's like a female QAnon liberal QAnon thing. Now
Speaker 1: did you know this? They have like a there's a
Speaker 1: name for it, and I wanted to dig a little
Speaker 1: more into It's like the four Am Club, I think
Speaker 1: is what they call themselves. And they're just and they
Speaker 1: believe are are you sitting down? They believe that we
Speaker 1: have been jettisoned into an alternative timeline because Kamala Harris
Speaker 1: actually won the election and so they're now trapped in
Speaker 1: this alternative timeline and they need to figure out how
Speaker 1: to get back because cheetoh Leani right, you know the
Speaker 1: Orange Man bad now. Ross and I have speculated that
Speaker 1: we are in an alternative timeline for much dumber things,
Speaker 1: but we also don't believe it most of the time.
Speaker 1: Although that fire what was that fireball yesterday? What's up
Speaker 1: with that?
Speaker 2: What's going on? A man? That's an origin story waiting
Speaker 2: to happen.
Speaker 1: There are things got about to go bad man. So
Speaker 1: like good origin story like Superman or bad origin story
Speaker 1: like every you know, insert murder alien horror movie.
Speaker 2: I think it's like a marketing thing for the new
Speaker 2: Superman movie. Wow, that'd be good. Remember how back in
Speaker 2: the day the clowns were yes for the dumb it
Speaker 2: movie or whatever that clown movie was that there, and
Speaker 2: all of suddenly the murderous clowns were seen everywhere and
Speaker 2: people were taking videos of the clowns, and there was
Speaker 2: clowned by the bus stop.
Speaker 1: The clown almost got murdered over in Greensboro. Around Greensboro,
Speaker 1: some guy was like, went and got a gun or
Speaker 1: some woman went and got a gun when they saw
Speaker 1: the clown on other side of this field, and I
Speaker 1: predicted some clown.
Speaker 2: And get murdered. Yeah, that was kayel he just landed.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I'm looking forward to that. That that's uh,
Speaker 1: you know, good things come from that. It's just the
Speaker 1: all the other ones. I've seen bad things come from those,
Speaker 1: really bad things. So we'll have to wait and see. No,
Speaker 1: I haven't even seen a satisfactory answer on what that was.
Speaker 1: I've seen the video. You watch the videos right there.
Speaker 2: You couldn't miss hm yesterday there are yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I don't know, well was going on, you know,
Speaker 1: videos from all over the Carolinas.
Speaker 2: Man. I saw some crazy videos coming out of Japan too,
Speaker 2: where there were like some like pink or some the
Speaker 2: lights were like shooting. It was super weird. People are like,
Speaker 2: what the hell's going on in Japan?
Speaker 1: And then I did see people because and this is
Speaker 1: the problem with the AI now, I saw people who
Speaker 1: wanted the clicks, so they created crazy versions of what
Speaker 1: actually happened, like this is from my porch. And then
Speaker 1: they were getting like the numbers they were putting up
Speaker 1: on what was clearly fake. Guys, you got to get
Speaker 1: better at it.
Speaker 2: I heard Elon Musk has created some sort of like suit,
Speaker 2: like some sort of iron suit.
Speaker 5: Oh.
Speaker 2: I think it's iron man. I'm not sure what that is,
Speaker 2: but it's some sort of iron suit that he can
Speaker 2: fly around and fight evil with. And I believe he
Speaker 2: was testing it and they would high altitude test. Maybe
Speaker 2: it froze up. Yeah, yeah, that happened. You know, you
Speaker 2: go up too high and you frozen and then you
Speaker 2: fall out. Yeah, that's what happened. Then you never do
Speaker 2: it again.
Speaker 1: Right, you wouldn't weaponize that, right, No, okay, all right,
Speaker 1: So speaking of that, don't watch Ironheart. Don't do it.
Speaker 1: Don't do it. Oh dude, I've heard some things, Oh,
Speaker 1: don't do it, so like, uh, it's what I did
Speaker 1: not realize. And I only realized it because then after
Speaker 1: I turned it off after twenty minutes, I went and
Speaker 1: actually watched Critical Drinkers thing on it. So Disney shot
Speaker 1: this thing like four years ago at the height of
Speaker 1: all of the moon bat and then the BLM stuff,
Speaker 1: and so it's it's just there's a reason they've been
Speaker 1: sitting on this thing.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: We have received, we have been overwhelmed with Dick Morris sightings.
Speaker 1: So all right, So and nobody can answer whether it's
Speaker 1: a ghost or dot Ross even asked.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I was on the phone with a very
Speaker 2: nice lady. Yeah, incredibly nice. She's called the show before
Speaker 2: and she's fantastic. And she told me that he's on Newsmax.
Speaker 2: And I, you know, I guess you get like an
Speaker 2: hour show or it's a two hour show or something.
Speaker 2: And I said, well, how do you know it's not
Speaker 2: a ghost, And she said, well, I can't tell you.
Speaker 2: And I said, well, what proof do you have, madam,
Speaker 2: that it is not a ghost. And she had no proof, okay,
Speaker 2: And what was the other thing? Somebody said, he also
Speaker 2: does a show in New York, a local like WABC
Speaker 2: or something, a two hour show. I guess, I believe
Speaker 2: you on the weekend at the WABC.
Speaker 1: Okay, but that's a that's a New York thing, so
Speaker 1: all right, And then he's on the Newsmax. Although your
Speaker 1: lady was nice, some guy was a real a hole
Speaker 1: in an email to me. Look, sir, I I don't
Speaker 1: sit around and watch Newsmax. But let me explain why. Well,
Speaker 1: let me let me help. So let's say you I
Speaker 1: don't know what your job is, sir, who decided to
Speaker 1: swear at me in this email. But let's say you,
Speaker 1: I'm assuming you're probably I don't know, an erotic messuse
Speaker 1: for lonely businessmen. So do you when you're done being
Speaker 1: an erotic messuse for lonely businessmen at work? Do you
Speaker 1: go home and erotically massaged lonely businessman? Do you understand
Speaker 1: the point that I'm making. So when Ross and I leave,
Speaker 1: I don't go turn and it's not newsmacs necessarily unless
Speaker 1: there's a big breaking story, then I'll throw some news on.
Speaker 1: But I try to have some separation there because later
Speaker 1: in the afternoon, I got to stick my head back
Speaker 1: into that wood chipper that is our news cycle, so
Speaker 1: I can prepare the show. And then the moment I'm
Speaker 1: done with that and I send all the stuff to Ross, nothing,
Speaker 1: I'm not watching the news again.
Speaker 2: We read a lot of news. We seal the news
Speaker 2: most of the time. When people send us stories, we've
Speaker 2: already seen it.
Speaker 1: But by the way, you can still send us stuff.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying don't, but I'm saying we read a
Speaker 1: lot and we see a lot. But that being said,
Speaker 1: we don't spend the entire day watching Fox News or Newsmax,
Speaker 1: or we don't sit around and watch the news.
Speaker 2: I have a life.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know, and if you watch news, that's
Speaker 1: fine and that's what you want to do. I just
Speaker 1: it's just because it's the job and we have we
Speaker 1: it's just a fire hose for all the other ways
Speaker 1: that it comes in because we have access to things
Speaker 1: that most people don't with like a you know, ap feeds,
Speaker 1: we have all the Fox News products since we broadcast it.
Speaker 1: We have all these other things there, which really kind
Speaker 1: of streamlines and facilitates the ability for us to do
Speaker 1: what we do. Coupled with the fact that, yeah, we've
Speaker 1: spent some time on Twitter.
Speaker 2: Yeah. But also you know, I also don't sit around
Speaker 2: listening to talk radio all because like, if you're an
Speaker 2: electrician and that's your life, or you're an electrician when
Speaker 2: you go home or erotic massuse for businesses when you
Speaker 2: go home, do you watch YouTube videos or shows or
Speaker 2: content or I'm being an electrician, right, yeah? Or do
Speaker 2: you have like a way to unwind and you have
Speaker 2: other stuff that you watch and do?
Speaker 5: Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: That's all so, And again nobody can answer whether Dick
Speaker 1: Morris is a ghost. So we're still we have no proof. Yeah,
Speaker 1: one way or the other. It's up in the air.
Speaker 1: We don't know. So send me emails swearing at me.
Speaker 1: It's that simple, you said, emails. Be angry but yeah,
Speaker 1: because you know, remember what happened to Poort Chad's mom?
Speaker 4: Was it?
Speaker 2: Chad?
Speaker 1: Okay, you had a bad day that still gets referenced
Speaker 1: every now and then. Don't be an a hole and
Speaker 1: we'll be good to go. Okay, all right, wonderful.
Speaker 2: They can't believe you don't just taking all this content
Speaker 2: twenty fourth seven. You're a you're a globalist, you're a fraud,
Speaker 2: you're a hoax. You've been exposed.
Speaker 1: I just I did spend an order amount of time
Speaker 1: trying to figure out if those were that was an
Speaker 1: alien coming to murderous yesterday with the fireball thing. Oh,
Speaker 1: you know, every now and then I break away, all right,
Speaker 1: uh oh, we got some sad news. I don't have
Speaker 1: it in front of me. Go ahead, Ross, go ahead.
Speaker 2: Hold on.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm sorry, I thought you had it right there.
Speaker 2: Hold on, man, No, I got it, yeah, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: all right, I got it. Okay, he's got it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Duke's a hazard Star Richard Hurst, what a deputy clean
Speaker 2: dead at seventy nine. He never got them. That's sad, man.
Speaker 1: Do you imagine you spent your whole life, that's your thing,
Speaker 1: your whole life, only to be out outdone by the
Speaker 1: by those duke boys man or deputy cleatus. Now, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: what a dude. I understand that.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: It's like it's it's like verboating to sit there and
Speaker 1: like show it and run it and reruns. Although I'm
Speaker 1: sure that someone is, but like, that was a good show.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry the car bothers you. That was a great man.
Speaker 1: I loved watching that, and I wasn't necessarily watching it live.
Speaker 1: I was watching it in the secondary reruns.
Speaker 2: Every every kid watched that show, especially if you're like,
Speaker 2: you know, if you were born when we were born,
Speaker 2: you watched it, you know, growing up to the eighties,
Speaker 2: he watched this show. It was like it was like
Speaker 2: he watched the eight team. It was his cultural phenomena,
Speaker 2: that's the thing. And every kid had one of those cars.
Speaker 2: I don't care if it was like, you know, I
Speaker 2: had a matchbox car. Oh, right to General Lee throwing
Speaker 2: off everything is canceled. Yeah sorry, buddy, Oh I've been
Speaker 2: moved to Newsmax, it's.
Speaker 1: Better than erotic messeuse for lonely businessman. Unless that's your passion,
Speaker 1: then you know you do you send me crappy emails?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 1: So ripped up Andy Cleatus. But yeah, man, what a
Speaker 1: great show, what an absolutely great show.
Speaker 4: What is this?
Speaker 1: Oh, Boston Paul even was a Newsmax emailer, Boston Paul.
Speaker 1: But he didn't swear at me, so I'll be nice.
Speaker 2: What is this?
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it is all right? So, uh he couldn't
Speaker 1: call in. Alan wrote and he said, look, I'm black.
Speaker 1: I listen to you guys. He goes, I don't even
Speaker 1: like you guys most days. Well, he goes, the other
Speaker 1: people who call me the N word are literally other
Speaker 1: black guys, And what does it say? And I don't
Speaker 1: like it and I bring it up and then they
Speaker 1: get mad at me. I'm a yeah, I like, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is going back to the Jamal Bowman story. He
Speaker 1: said that the health issues within the black community are
Speaker 1: because black people are literally called the hard are N
Speaker 1: word every day, And I'm just like, I feel like
Speaker 1: we'd hear about that if that was happening more, we'd
Speaker 1: hear more about that. So anyway, all right seven thirteen
Speaker 1: here on the Cacoday radio program, h Keith Oberman is
Speaker 1: just what a special what a special dude that guy is?
Speaker 2: Wait, Keith Oberman is still alive? Well, you know what,
Speaker 2: I don't know that we have any proof of that,
Speaker 2: do we? Is he a ghost?
Speaker 1: The only thing I ever see anytime I see a
Speaker 1: video of Keith Oberman's on Twitter, and some of you
Speaker 1: lunatics thought Greta was on a conference call with half
Speaker 1: the era of world yesterday doing a power fist and
Speaker 1: speaking perfect. You gotta get better at figuring out whether
Speaker 1: stuff isn't true or not. That's a first video Ross
Speaker 1: saw this morning.
Speaker 2: No, So I get up at I slept a little
Speaker 2: late today because it's Friday. So I slept till three
Speaker 2: point thirty. My alarm goes off, which it typically doesn't,
Speaker 2: and I get up and I opened my phone and
Speaker 2: the you know, the kitchen is all dark. I try
Speaker 2: to be like a ninja in the morning, not to
Speaker 2: wake everybody up, but I mean I'm in the kitchen.
Speaker 2: I open up my phone and it's like that first
Speaker 2: glare from your phone when you're still groggy. He's out
Speaker 2: of your eyes, and I'm like oh, let me open
Speaker 2: up Twitter to see if the world blew up. And
Speaker 2: I open it up and I have a bunch of
Speaker 2: people sent me a message and they're like, dude, check
Speaker 2: out this video. Can't believe this. Oh wow, look this
Speaker 2: is crazy. Is this real? And I watched the thing
Speaker 2: and it's grogginess for about five seconds, and I say,
Speaker 2: that's AI.
Speaker 1: It's clearly AI. Yeah, yeah, we're dude. It has with
Speaker 1: It's like I was saying with the with the the
Speaker 1: spaceball thing, you got to say with the fireball people
Speaker 1: then just start making their own so they could get
Speaker 1: clicks through. And then by then you had to figure
Speaker 1: out what is and what isn't real. And I don't know,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe one of the things that Twitter's gonna happen,
Speaker 1: because here's the problem. I don't know that I trust
Speaker 1: the social media companies to accurately do this. And that
Speaker 1: is tag. You know, use a tag if somebody uploads
Speaker 1: a video that's a I. In the same way that
Speaker 1: if we if we use our social media around here
Speaker 1: and are promoting a client and we've received compensation for it,
Speaker 1: you're legally required not just us, but influencers whatever you
Speaker 1: have to put ad in there or there's a few
Speaker 1: a few ways that you can do it, but you
Speaker 1: have to give notice. It's a legal requirement. You can
Speaker 1: get in trouble with the Federal Trade Commission if you don't,
Speaker 1: and they have come after in some more more so
Speaker 1: like Instagram influencers, you have to disclose it. Because radio
Speaker 1: we've been doing it for so long. We have a
Speaker 1: system when we're on the air, you know, Casey Ross
Speaker 1: here for and then you hear it in that capacity
Speaker 1: that's you know, that's disclosed. And when I'm talking to something,
Speaker 1: I'll always tell you if this is a client or not,
Speaker 1: if it's a client of ours, I always kind of
Speaker 1: casually mention it because I believe that you should have
Speaker 1: to disclose with the AI. It just it makes it
Speaker 1: a tougher experience. Not to say that there's not really
Speaker 1: fun cool AI stuff. There's some great stuff. I'm really
Speaker 1: I don't know about you. I am enjoying the heck
Speaker 1: out of all of these really creative videos of like
Speaker 1: historical things but they're vloggers, like the Redcoats thing we
Speaker 1: had the other day. Did you Ross? Did you watch
Speaker 1: that organ trail one? That's great?
Speaker 2: Yeah know, it's fantastic. Yeah, when they're like, you know,
Speaker 2: they're like obviously they're all dying, and she's talking about
Speaker 2: they're trying to manifest positive energy because it's like through
Speaker 2: the lens of a twenty twenty five influencer. Correct.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I love the part where he's like, all right,
Speaker 1: I can like carry one hundred pounds. Time to go
Speaker 1: shoot ten pounds of meat. I don't know about you,
Speaker 1: but I did a lot of hunting on the old
Speaker 1: Oregon Trail in the day, like way too much. The
Speaker 1: teacher come over, it's like you're hunting again.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he took us to the Apple back lab. So
Speaker 1: this is what's happening. Deal with it?
Speaker 2: What a journey to you know, for them to make
Speaker 2: that journey just so their descendants could live in twenty
Speaker 2: twenty five Portland.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's oh between the dysentery and the gout. And
Speaker 1: I didn't chalk the wagon properly man to end up
Speaker 1: there or well, it wasn't just it was Wilmette Valley
Speaker 1: and then all the way up into Washington there too.
Speaker 1: That's what settled that whole area. That and a little
Speaker 1: tiny gold rush thing. But yeah, can you imagine you
Speaker 1: get your ancestors made it through all that, and then
Speaker 1: you get murdered in the middle of Chaz Chop and
Speaker 1: they won't let an ambulance in.
Speaker 2: Ain't right, man, it ain't right. BJ what's up? Hello? Yeah, hey,
Speaker 2: go right ahead.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can hear you.
Speaker 3: Uh no, man, I just wanted to comment on the
Speaker 3: actor playing please and the Dukes of Hazzard died whenever.
Speaker 3: Whenever I heard the music playing, I honestly saw John
Speaker 3: Schneider or Tom wopat like the bo Luther passed away.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh no, oh, yeah, well I kind
Speaker 1: of realized that when I started playing it, and then
Speaker 1: I didn't tip Ross off to have the story open
Speaker 1: on his phone, and that thought crossed my mind, like, oh,
Speaker 1: or days it'll be like, oh they all died.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it.
Speaker 3: Was yeah, yeah, it was funny. I was actually talking
Speaker 3: to a coworker about it yesterday. So for reference, I'm
Speaker 3: thirty one, so obviously I didn't grow up with it,
Speaker 3: but I remember watching the reruns of it in the real,
Speaker 3: real late nineties. Yeah, and when I was in when
Speaker 3: I was in when I was in middle school. This
Speaker 3: was like the mid two thousands. CMT was showing the
Speaker 3: reruns of it, and that for a couple of years
Speaker 3: of my childhood became like my identity. I absolutely love
Speaker 3: the heck out of that show, and uh had the
Speaker 3: video game for it. The Dukes of Hazard turned to
Speaker 3: General Lee and you know the song and all that dazz.
Speaker 5: It's a good show.
Speaker 2: Wo.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, sir, I just can't you got canceled. So you're canceled?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, gum man. Yeah, I didn't learn from Ross's
Speaker 3: to say.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, nobody does.
Speaker 1: All right, thanks, That's why you make them so you
Speaker 1: guys can learn so you don't get canceled by the
Speaker 1: wocarate or whatever. All right, seven nineteen, hang on, and
Speaker 1: now my inbox is filling up with people creating ai
Speaker 1: of Dick Morris as a ghost. So the show's come
Speaker 1: full circle today. All right, we got to do another duke. Oh,
Speaker 1: by the way, I just remembered something. It was the
Speaker 1: dumbest argument I think I've ever participated in.
Speaker 2: And this is you have to understand.
Speaker 1: This is pre everyone had a cell phone that you
Speaker 1: could search the Internet on, so like if you didn't know,
Speaker 1: you had to wait figure out who's right. When I
Speaker 1: was doing when I was first doing radio. People would
Speaker 1: call the radio station in the evenings drunk at the
Speaker 1: bar to have me settle bets for them. That was
Speaker 1: the thing back in the day, because you know, apparently
Speaker 1: I'm just sitting around waiting for their calls.
Speaker 2: So I went there.
Speaker 1: There's a dude to car. He's not a friend of mine,
Speaker 1: but he's a friend of a friend. And we're all
Speaker 1: sitting in this truck and I can't remember where we're driving,
Speaker 1: and that song comes, uh the Way, the Good Old
Speaker 1: Boys song comes on, and this dude went, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I love Willie Nelson. And I'm like, that's not Willie Nelson, Dude,
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? Willie Nelson sounds like Willie Nelson.
Speaker 1: Nobody else sounds like Willy Nelson. And that c literally
Speaker 1: is not that's Whylon Jennings. He goes, no, No, it's
Speaker 1: the guy who did look about Texas. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: that's Waylon Jennings.
Speaker 2: I discovered this new band right. They're called the Highwaymen.
Speaker 1: Oh, really tell me more.
Speaker 2: We're not going to believe this. Yeah, it's for Willie
Speaker 2: Nelson's they cloned him. Oh yeah, I'm serious, man. I
Speaker 2: had I listened to the Highwaymen. Highwaymen song. It's in
Speaker 2: my my mix yesterday driving over to a client meeting.
Speaker 2: You know you're a band when you have a song
Speaker 2: that's the name of your band, right, But even that lineup, oh.
Speaker 1: My god, it's the greatest supergroup ever.
Speaker 2: It's like it's they're the avengers of a band. Like
Speaker 2: the lineup of that band. The Highwayman absolutely insane.
Speaker 1: It's I think it's because country. He doesn't get it.
Speaker 1: It's the best. It's the greatest super group ever. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't care.
Speaker 2: You can.
Speaker 1: You know, people may go Crosby Steels, Nash Young. That's great.
Speaker 1: I'm glad you liked those guys. It's not the Highwayman.
Speaker 1: It's not the Highwayman, all right, Anthony, real quick, what's up?
Speaker 4: So years ago, my son he loved Dukes Hazard as
Speaker 4: much as I did. He's eighteen, but he was at
Speaker 4: the time. Anyway, he came James Bess came to a
Speaker 4: restaurant in Young's Will called Griffin's. It's no longer there,
Speaker 4: and my my wife got my son up there and
Speaker 4: he was able to get a picture with James best.
Speaker 4: But I was also going to say fun fact about
Speaker 4: Duke sa Hazard, the actor who played Bear Bryant in
Speaker 4: the Forrest Gump, was actually Enis. It's funny, Uh, Buddy Astrayer,
Speaker 4: I think his name is.
Speaker 1: I would put our audience up on a Dukes of
Speaker 1: Hazzard quiz show against any audience in radio.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: I love it, all right, Anthony, real quick. Uh, there's
Speaker 1: one for you. And you said your son was eighteen
Speaker 1: when he watched this.
Speaker 4: No, he's eighteen now, he was like five.
Speaker 1: Oh he's an adult now, Okay, he's canceled, all right,
Speaker 1: get out of here. So that's unfortunate. And then I
Speaker 1: just did something and I knew it was going to
Speaker 1: irritate me. And I don't know why I did it.
Speaker 1: I knew it was going to happen. I called up
Speaker 1: a list. I just wanted to see a list like
Speaker 1: Rolling Stone greatest supergroups ever? And you know who's not
Speaker 1: in there, The highwayman Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Christoperson.
Speaker 2: I mean, just.
Speaker 1: What's happening you absolute adults?
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 1: Ross you want to know the bet? You want to
Speaker 1: know the greatest supergroups? The Traveling Wilbury's third.
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 1: So uh and that had no Now we'll say this
Speaker 1: that was very short lived. It had Dylan Harrison Petty.
Speaker 1: I think Roy Orbison was in there too for a minute.
Speaker 1: That's pretty good. Yeah, that's pretty stacked. That's that's pretty good.
Speaker 1: And I'm not asking. I'm not trying to rank these
Speaker 1: even though they did. I'm just saying, if you don't
Speaker 1: have the highwaymen in this conversation, then you can't report
Speaker 1: on music. Okay, Crosby Steel's Nash reference that sometimes young
Speaker 1: sometimes no Young and cream, which I mean, yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: Eric Clapton, Bruce ginger Baker I think was the Yeah
Speaker 1: ginger Baker, but no offense. Eric Clapton is an amazing artist.
Speaker 1: I don't know if does that count as a supergroup.
Speaker 1: I don't know. And some people would say the Eagles,
Speaker 1: but I don't think you can do supergroups because they
Speaker 1: then split into their own stuff. Henley did his thing,
Speaker 1: and then obviously Joe Walsh did his thing, but they
Speaker 1: were the Eagles first.
Speaker 2: I think these people though, or they're underestimating the power
Speaker 2: of just alone Johnny Cash and Innings, but them alone.
Speaker 4: Sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it sounds like the list is biased towards you know,
Speaker 2: rock as opposed to country. Yeah, what are some other
Speaker 2: honorable mentions here the firm?
Speaker 1: Come on, I mean I'm down with Jimmy Page, don't
Speaker 1: get me wrong, but no Paul Rodgers, okay, audio slave,
Speaker 1: stop it, stop it, Chris Cornell great, Morello great, but
Speaker 1: still yeah, there's a little bit of bias there. Oh
Speaker 1: all right, so do we have all right? So Ross
Speaker 1: we know more about the fireball in the sky. You said,
Speaker 1: let's say you had a sign site you had you
Speaker 1: got audio from some scientists explaining what this thing? Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, because I don't have it on my button bar,
Speaker 1: That's why I almost missed it.
Speaker 2: So because there's many people saying that it was I
Speaker 2: believe that it was a meteor, you place. So they
Speaker 2: talked to a scientists who explained if it was a
Speaker 2: meteor or not. Should I play that?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, let's depend.
Speaker 1: I want to know what it is. I haven't heard
Speaker 1: this yet from the scientist.
Speaker 2: It ain't a meteor. O cat Is it came out
Speaker 2: of the sky?
Speaker 1: Well, I'm sure it did.
Speaker 2: It sounds sciencey.
Speaker 4: There is a big old frozen chunkin.
Speaker 2: What I mean?
Speaker 1: Confirm that was not airliner poop? Okay, it's how how
Speaker 1: big would have had to pin for what was seen
Speaker 1: in the sky. Man, you think they're what do you
Speaker 1: think they're serving on that airline burritos? But I mean,
Speaker 1: and then they did the Dave Matthews driving through Chicago thing.
Speaker 1: It was going on, Oh jeez, can't win, man.
Speaker 2: Can't win.
Speaker 1: Uh So Pete Hegseth decided he was going to uh
Speaker 1: field another round o questions yesterday, and they just got
Speaker 1: progressively dumber because I pointed out at the beginning of
Speaker 1: the show, we have made this transition from well, I
Speaker 1: don't think you guys bombed anything real well because preliminary, leaky,
Speaker 1: leaky reports and now with assessment damages from literally other countries,
Speaker 1: countries who, by the way, are not big fans of
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, they've they've kind of moved a little way
Speaker 1: from that, and now they're into, well, they moved all
Speaker 1: the uranium so they didn't hit anything, which is dumb
Speaker 1: for a thousand reasons. One, even if they did, you're
Speaker 1: implying that they did it in a little pickup trucks,
Speaker 1: so you think they moved it with their hands, which
Speaker 1: is not gonna work out. But two, it's not just
Speaker 1: the uranium, it's the centrifugias and the equipment necessary to
Speaker 1: enrich it, and that stuff is really tightly controlled. He's
Speaker 1: gonna be very noticeable as they go to attempt to
Speaker 1: acquire more of those parts. And you don't just move
Speaker 1: that with some trucks, you know, just you know, just
Speaker 1: you know, move that with some trucks. Okay, you're all lunatics, man.
Speaker 1: And then of course the New York Times piece to
Speaker 1: resistance was, of course the boys comment our our boys
Speaker 1: did a good job. And then of course they became
Speaker 1: offended because women fly planes too. The problem is he
Speaker 1: might have I think they might have actually meant specifically
Speaker 1: the crew who I would not be surprised if that
Speaker 1: crew didn't get a little video call, a little a
Speaker 1: little something from heg Seth or you know, whether Joint
Speaker 1: chiefs or maybe even the President saying hey, this is
Speaker 1: so important, this is great, thank you for what you're doing,
Speaker 1: and let's let's make this happen. Because that's a bit
Speaker 1: the details of that mission are pretty crazy. You take
Speaker 1: off Missouri, gonna fly for thirty six hours, where refuel
Speaker 1: you along the way. You're gonna get into Iranian apace,
Speaker 1: who's really mad at us right now? And they killed it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they killed it man. And so that came up again yesterday.
Speaker 1: Here is that exchange. This is how it should have gone.
Speaker 1: The first time.
Speaker 7: Acknowledged the female pilots that also participated in this mission.
Speaker 8: The early messages that you sent out only congratulated the boys.
Speaker 9: So when I say something like our boys and bombers, see,
Speaker 9: this is the kind of thing the press does.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 9: Of course, the chairman mentioned a female bomber pilot. That's fantastic.
Speaker 9: She's fantastic, she's a hero. I want more female bomber pilots.
Speaker 9: I hope the men and women of our country sign
Speaker 9: up to do such brave and audacious things. But when
Speaker 9: you spin it as because I say our boys and
Speaker 9: bombers as a common phrase, I'll keep saying things like that,
Speaker 9: whether they're men or women. Very proud of that female pilot,
Speaker 9: just like I'm very proud of those male pilots. And
Speaker 9: I don't care if it's a male or a female
Speaker 9: in that cockpit, and the American people don't care. But
Speaker 9: it's the obsession with race and gender in this department
Speaker 9: that's change priorities.
Speaker 2: We don't do that anymore.
Speaker 9: We don't play your little games.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just like you know boys in Blue and all
Speaker 1: the cops are men, right, because that's just a known fact.
Speaker 1: Absolutely so. Yeah, Hag said. What he's referencing is they
Speaker 1: pointed out that there is a there's there. I think
Speaker 1: there's two b two pilots that are women. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: there's a didn't miss was it miss America? A fighter
Speaker 1: a fighter jet pilot like the most one of the
Speaker 1: last two or something. She's also like a Rhodes scholar
Speaker 1: or something like that. She checking all the boxes. Good
Speaker 1: on her, and you know it's probably smart enough to
Speaker 1: know that that wasn't a slight.
Speaker 2: But I digress. All right, Oh, tell Jamal to hang on.
Speaker 1: I got We're gonna do weather and then I'll I'll
Speaker 1: chat with him in the next segment here right when
Speaker 1: we get back. But Jeff Maher from the Weather Channel,
Speaker 1: he's he's hanging out. What's going on, Jeff.
Speaker 10: Mar you know it's more hot and humid weather had Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 10: just some time for our last week in June. And
Speaker 10: we'll also have a few showers on thunderstorts to die,
Speaker 10: but most of those will hold off until later this afternoon.
Speaker 10: So we'll start off with sunshine. The eventual high in
Speaker 10: ninety six, but it feels more like one hundred and
Speaker 10: one two in you factory in the humidity, and look
Speaker 10: for a few scattered after me at evening thunderstorms to
Speaker 10: pop up, partly cloudy overnight down to seventy three. We're
Speaker 10: not going to have much of a change with the
Speaker 10: weather pattern into the weekend. That means some early sunshine
Speaker 10: followed by scattered afternoon storms highs tomorrow and on Sunday
Speaker 10: in the mid nineties. That heated decks again close to
Speaker 10: one hundred manufactured humidity and a little bit drier as
Speaker 10: we start off with me Monday with sunshine and I
Speaker 10: eventually headed to ninety four degrees.
Speaker 1: All right, Jeff, talk to you in an hour, Thank you, sir.
Speaker 2: Sure, all right, Ross.
Speaker 1: I hope we don't get too much rain, too much water,
Speaker 1: that would be that'd be that'd be horrible, right.
Speaker 2: I didn't expect that was gonna be dead on them. Sorry.
Speaker 2: There was another news package yesterday.
Speaker 1: Is this they were talking about I think it was
Speaker 1: Minneapolis who were talking about all the rain they were
Speaker 1: getting up there. This guy sounds like he's running while
Speaker 1: they're in our viewing him too.
Speaker 2: I didn't expect that was going to be dead.
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, all right, we'll be back. Hang on, talk
Speaker 1: about water floatation fund devices. What one a breadstick is
Speaker 1: would be great?
Speaker 10: Right?
Speaker 2: I would think the breadstick would be the superior pole
Speaker 2: flu like noodle thing?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Or if you want to go bigger, you want to
Speaker 1: expand it. You know, you ever see like the pool
Speaker 1: behind boat toys? Have you ever seen the giant banana?
Speaker 2: I have yet?
Speaker 1: Yeah, where there's like three handlebars on three people who
Speaker 1: ride a pool behind a boat that as a breadstick.
Speaker 2: You're buying that today?
Speaker 1: And what pasta do you go with?
Speaker 2: By the way, I mean, I don't know. That's a
Speaker 2: that's a tough question, and I think is a question
Speaker 2: we've all asked ourselves throughout the years.
Speaker 1: Right, Really, if I if there was a floatation fun
Speaker 1: devices themed after Olive Garden pasta, what would it be?
Speaker 2: You're not going to go angel hair pasta? No, he'd
Speaker 2: sink right.
Speaker 1: Maybe for a tiny little kid now, a ravioli'd be interesting,
Speaker 1: you know for a float where you lay on it? Right,
Speaker 1: did you get a couple of people on the old Ravioli,
Speaker 1: so that'd probably be good. But it looks like, let's
Speaker 1: see here they have floating Fetaicini taking it easy, tortal Tortelloni.
Speaker 1: Which one's the Tortaloni?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Well, I know I got a very important thing. I
Speaker 1: got a google here, and you all have to sit
Speaker 1: while I google it.
Speaker 2: I heard the pool floating is there? They're manufactured in Tuscany, though,
Speaker 2: is that true?
Speaker 1: I mean it probably starts with the T and ends
Speaker 1: with I wan, but you know, maybe maybe by the
Speaker 1: way I got ross at present.
Speaker 2: I'm super excited you sent the photo the markie.
Speaker 1: What's the what's the name brand of that water?
Speaker 2: I don't know if I can pronounce it. It's a
Speaker 2: quah okay aqua pana, It's a pc q u a.
Speaker 1: Now why would I get him a glass bottle of
Speaker 1: water from?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 2: Tell the tell natural spring water from Tuscany. This is
Speaker 2: what they boil the pot olive.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's true. No, it is this spring
Speaker 1: water from Tuscany because it's really that water is expensive,
Speaker 1: so so is olive garden. You get what you know,
Speaker 1: you get what you pay for.
Speaker 2: Man but you.
Speaker 1: Need like twenty of those bottles to do the you know,
Speaker 1: po big pasta boil for them. So anyway, he's got
Speaker 1: Tuscan water in there. Now I'm gonna get you a
Speaker 1: Tuscan Raider too. Do you want one of those? Oh wait,
Speaker 1: that's a different one. That's a different one.
Speaker 4: Huh.
Speaker 1: But why did they do Tuscany like that? By the way,
Speaker 1: that's my question.
Speaker 2: Why would you do that?
Speaker 1: What did he have a bad Olive Garden experience before
Speaker 1: they made the movie.
Speaker 2: He's like, I'll show.
Speaker 1: Them to make these maniacs from Tuscany. Yeah, that'll show them.
Speaker 1: So Ross has Tuscan water. Now, fine dining man, fine dining.
Speaker 1: Oh wait, hold on, it was figured out what a
Speaker 1: Tortaloni is. I know what a Tortellini is.
Speaker 2: Acknowledged he puts the Ford leader on.
Speaker 1: Wow, dude, I hit the wrong keyboard. I moved some
Speaker 1: stuff around today because one of my computers is acting
Speaker 1: like an absolute jerk, so it was firing stuff on
Speaker 1: the button bar. I stopped playing all right, sorry, and
Speaker 1: I forgot I had the hot keys. Well that's Tortellini.
Speaker 1: I want Tortelloni. Show me a picture of Tortelloni keeps
Speaker 1: trying to correct me, like I'm dumb. I olive garden, did.
Speaker 2: It not me?
Speaker 1: No pool noodles for you, sir, Chicken Tortaloni. Just show
Speaker 1: me a picture of Tortelloni, so I know, okay, all right,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's like it's the circular ravioli with the
Speaker 1: stuff stuff to side.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it's a float tube. That's just a it's a
Speaker 1: it's an inflatable float tube. That's all that is. That practical,
Speaker 1: that's practical. And then relaxing rigatoni. Rigatoni sounds like that
Speaker 1: wouldn't be a very good one, Like you'd sink that's
Speaker 1: what you get somebody you want them to drown? What'd
Speaker 1: you get? Got you the rigatoni? Ah you don't. You
Speaker 1: don't love me as much as the other kids. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that thing is not hydrodynamic or whatever the word would
Speaker 1: be for that. So for radio buddy from down south
Speaker 1: who did not get struck with pieces of the meteorite yesterday,
Speaker 1: joining us, how you doing, sir?
Speaker 5: I am I am intact.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And then he brought up a horrifying point reference
Speaker 1: to the old Stephen kingbook Tommy Knockers, which also started
Speaker 1: with a meteorite, but went in a very different direction
Speaker 1: where everyone.
Speaker 5: Think, yeah, didn't he I want to say, like I'm
Speaker 5: trying to remember if that was, like was that well
Speaker 5: where like some guy out in the middle of nowhere
Speaker 5: finds and I believe it was Stephen King who actually
Speaker 5: played this role where he was like some you.
Speaker 1: Know, was a crash ship and something else. The meteorite
Speaker 1: might have been something else, right.
Speaker 5: And he like dug it, he found it, He dug
Speaker 5: it out, and then he like picked it up and
Speaker 5: touched it or something. And the next thing he starts
Speaker 5: getting like grass or or moss growing all over and
Speaker 5: then and then he like just you know, spoiler alert,
Speaker 5: he like you know, kills himself in the bathtub after
Speaker 5: he's completely.
Speaker 1: Covered spoiler alert. Stephen King book. But yeah, how how
Speaker 1: I love Stephen King books so much? And to then
Speaker 1: now know who Stephen King is?
Speaker 5: Yeah for real? Yeah, yeah, you know it. And I
Speaker 5: loved the Dark Tower series, yes, and and I quit reading.
Speaker 5: I think the fourth book may have been the last
Speaker 5: one that I read. He and like I've lost tracking this.
Speaker 5: I got on Twitter back in you know, two thousand
Speaker 5: and nine, and I seem to recall reading his stuff
Speaker 5: pretty early on. He was an early adopter of Twitter
Speaker 5: as well, and that's when I started seeing just his
Speaker 5: completely unhinged hot takes. And it's the same thing with
Speaker 5: you know in the journalism world, where you know, you
Speaker 5: read these pieces by individuals and you think, oh, this
Speaker 5: is a solid piece or whatever, and then you read
Speaker 5: what they think about stuff in their last guarded moments
Speaker 5: and you're like, oh my gosh, I can't trust anything
Speaker 5: this person says anymore. No.
Speaker 1: Well, it's like Keith Oberman. I just love Oberman on
Speaker 1: Sports Center, y Ross and I've talked about this a lot.
Speaker 1: And that guy you never liked him on sports Well
Speaker 1: just on Sports Center.
Speaker 5: Okay, Nope, no, never liked him.
Speaker 2: But now boy mask is off.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and frankly, he needs probably one of the masks
Speaker 1: from the Hannibal, you know, like.
Speaker 2: Silence of the Lambs and a straight jacket. Yeah, just
Speaker 2: so he doesn't harm himself. All right.
Speaker 1: So here's the over under. Did the meteorite do more
Speaker 1: damage than our.
Speaker 2: What's sixteen? How many?
Speaker 1: How many of those bunker buster things did we actually
Speaker 1: drop on Iran?
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like a dozen of them.
Speaker 1: What dozen was just the one facility? I think then
Speaker 1: it was sixteen tollers. So but it doesn't matter which
Speaker 1: did more damage our b two bombers or that meteorite
Speaker 1: at work, you know, because this has been the fascination
Speaker 1: of the media all week.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it's it's once again another example like how
Speaker 5: you can be president, but you just can't govern, you know,
Speaker 5: because you've got people inside of your quote administration, although
Speaker 5: they're not they're they're part of the you know, the
Speaker 5: bureaucracy or the deep state, as Trump World calls it.
Speaker 1: And well, then let me say this, because I know
Speaker 1: where you're going with this. It's not just his administration
Speaker 1: who may have leaked that. Yeah, this that report was
Speaker 1: provided to members of the House and Senate committees that
Speaker 1: have oversight on this.
Speaker 5: Correct, right, And so I saw a headline earlier this
Speaker 5: morning that Trump claims he knows you know, who leaked it.
Speaker 5: And maybe he does, maybe he does not. I don't know.
Speaker 5: I have taken so like my rule of thumb now
Speaker 5: for all things Trump administration is let's give it a
Speaker 5: little time, Let's wait and see. Yeah, because everybody rushing
Speaker 5: to try to frame the narrative immediately when you don't know. No,
Speaker 5: but like in the immediate aftermath of the bombing, run
Speaker 5: everybody's running around claiming that they know exactly, you know,
Speaker 5: what the impact was and was it totally destroyed, was
Speaker 5: it not destroyed?
Speaker 2: Whatever?
Speaker 5: And you don't know. There's no way you could know that.
Speaker 5: And if you do find out, it's going to be
Speaker 5: from intelligence services, and then you're going to have to
Speaker 5: weigh that information too. So I kind of look at
Speaker 5: I try to look at incentives, like what incentive does
Speaker 5: somebody have to say we did not, you know, successfully
Speaker 5: wipe out the facilities. Right, So if somebody's telling me that, oh,
Speaker 5: we didn't do it, it didn't happen, it wasn't good, Well, okay,
Speaker 5: do you have an incentive to tell me that versus
Speaker 5: what might be the truth that we did knock them
Speaker 5: all out? Right, just like Trump has an incentive to
Speaker 5: say we did knock them all out, and I.
Speaker 1: Think Iran has an incentive to say that we knocked
Speaker 1: them all out. That's what people that are forgetting here
Speaker 1: Iran going Yep, he blew it all up. I guess
Speaker 1: we're done. That's what they're going to tell you.
Speaker 5: Right, and initially they said the opposite. Initially they said there.
Speaker 1: Was no well because they wanted to, you know, he
Speaker 1: had to look strong in that moment.
Speaker 2: But I think, right, yeah, and.
Speaker 5: Now they're saying, oh, yeah, heavily damaged. Right, So you
Speaker 5: don't know what they're saying. And you know, they may
Speaker 5: have shifted their their cost benefit analysis of saying it
Speaker 5: was completely destroyed. So this way they can pursue it.
Speaker 5: But in the Israelis, like, they have incentives, right, they're
Speaker 5: incentive You would think if they want to keep you know,
Speaker 5: engaging in warfare against Iran, you would think that they
Speaker 5: would say that it was not successful. But there's an
Speaker 5: incentive for them to you know, flatter Trump in the
Speaker 5: US in order to keep you know, close alliance. And
Speaker 5: so it's it's all very difficult. And so when you
Speaker 5: get handed this intel that says we have very low
Speaker 5: confidence in this assessment, first off, like that's and.
Speaker 1: That has an asterisk on it. Yeah, that's an important point, yes.
Speaker 5: Right, and that was important to note that was omitted
Speaker 5: from the initial reports in the media. They did not
Speaker 5: convey that to their audience. Now they later came back
Speaker 5: and stuck that in and then they're like, we stand
Speaker 5: by our reporting. Well you stand by it now. But
Speaker 5: the initial reports were obviously intended to undermine the message
Speaker 5: that Trump was sending out there, and you have to
Speaker 5: ask yourself, what is the incentive to do so it's
Speaker 5: to weaken Donald Trump, but also it's to make Americans
Speaker 5: demoralized about their own nation and its own ability to
Speaker 5: run this kind of an operation, which what it seems
Speaker 5: like was successful, it does appear to be successful at
Speaker 5: this time. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I think the other side of that too is
Speaker 1: as to why they're I don't want to say backtracking
Speaker 1: a little, but trying to reimagine history, is because I
Speaker 1: think they in their quest to get Donald Trump, it
Speaker 1: also came across to a lot of people that they
Speaker 1: were not being very complementary of the beat while simultaneously
Speaker 1: not being complementary of our military personnel. And then the
Speaker 1: New York Times whining because they said boys, right, and
Speaker 1: so I think that might play a little into it.
Speaker 5: So yeah, yeah, right, yeah, it's like, oh gosh, how
Speaker 5: do we you know, how do we frame this as
Speaker 5: not being anti military but just against the leader of
Speaker 5: the military, right, But yet you're criticizing the operation that
Speaker 5: the leader didn't do, but the military it did itself.
Speaker 5: So yeah, this and look, I think the proof is
Speaker 5: going to be, uh, you know, does Iran actually come
Speaker 5: to the table and have some sort of negotiation at
Speaker 5: this point, because that is not something that a wrong
Speaker 5: I think would do if they still maintain nuclear capabilities.
Speaker 5: Now they may have some other capabilities, they may have
Speaker 5: some other uh you know, ace up their sleeves so
Speaker 5: to speak, that they may try to do. I don't know.
Speaker 5: I don't trust the Iranians because you know, they want
Speaker 5: to murder all Americans.
Speaker 1: Death to America means come on.
Speaker 5: Like the fiery but mostly peaceful.
Speaker 1: Did you hear the CNN analysis where the woman was
Speaker 1: talking about how she was in around while they were
Speaker 1: chanting death to Americas, but they were very nice to her, right.
Speaker 5: It's in a good way. It's like, see, this is
Speaker 5: this is what it's Western conceit. Okay, this is the
Speaker 5: belief that, oh, everybody thinks like I do, and if
Speaker 5: we just give them it's if we just give them,
Speaker 5: you know, enough money, or we give them enough tolerance,
Speaker 5: and then they'll like us. And it is that is
Speaker 5: a conceit. Okay, you are projecting onto a different people
Speaker 5: your thought process and what you value and what you
Speaker 5: reject and accept. They have a different calculus, Okay, And
Speaker 5: when they are telling you that they want to murder
Speaker 5: you all and then they actually take steps to do that,
Speaker 5: you should believe them. You should trust that their actions
Speaker 5: are matching their death chance. It's like this, oh uh, jihad,
Speaker 5: it just.
Speaker 1: Means personally, Yeah, that's that was the most recent one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's the other one.
Speaker 5: Right, It's like, oh, look, even the Holocaust Museum uses
Speaker 5: intifada to describe the Warsaw ghetto uprising in Poland against
Speaker 5: the Nazis in a last stand by Jews before they
Speaker 5: were all slaughtered. So well, when you're translating, when you're
Speaker 5: translating that uprising into Arabic, then yes, I guess the
Speaker 5: word intifada would work. However, the intifada as being used
Speaker 5: now context matters, means the Intifada that is exemplified by
Speaker 5: the Second Intifada that was waged against the Israelis, right,
Speaker 5: murdering hundreds and hundreds of innocent civilians in a terrorism campaign.
Speaker 1: No, they just want to sign They want to go
Speaker 1: on a dual vacation to both a river and the sea.
Speaker 1: Don't you're reading too much into this?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 1: Hey, I got to ask you, though, how excited are you?
Speaker 1: You got to be in a great mood? You could
Speaker 1: you own your house in Charlotte? Are you bought a
Speaker 1: house down there?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Well, I mean the bank owns it for now.
Speaker 1: Well hell, but it's just it's it's gonna be worth
Speaker 1: so much more money, true, because that had that thing
Speaker 1: up in New York. And I saw last year that
Speaker 1: North Carolina surpassed Florida for New York transplants, so yay
Speaker 1: for us. I have to assume that he the the
Speaker 1: final purge will be coming if this guy is the mayor,
Speaker 1: judging by his laundry list of priorities, which includes, oh,
Speaker 1: that's right, let's let's have government run grocery stores, which,
Speaker 1: by the way, I've seen those in some common countries.
Speaker 2: The selection is not great.
Speaker 5: No, Tucker Croston seemed very uh, he seemed he seemed
Speaker 5: very impressed by Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but the Cuban ones are crazy because it'll be
Speaker 1: one aisle with one type of one thing and it's
Speaker 1: the whole isle, and then the next one has nothing
Speaker 1: in it.
Speaker 2: It's crazy.
Speaker 1: So so my value is going up.
Speaker 2: That's great.
Speaker 1: Uh. The the craziness part is if you're a renter,
Speaker 1: that'll drive prices up while this dude simultaneously freezes rent
Speaker 1: in New York.
Speaker 2: So that's a fun twist.
Speaker 5: You're ignoring that. The best part of his tax plan, though.
Speaker 1: Is it the legalized prostitutions, which he'd have to subsidize,
Speaker 1: because if you can't afford a hook or that's not fair, right,
Speaker 1: and I have it instead of snap card, you can
Speaker 1: call it a snit.
Speaker 2: Well you get it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, so yeah, you would have to act
Speaker 5: and you would have to redistribute those services based on equity, right,
Speaker 5: so you would have to adjust for that. No, My
Speaker 5: favorite is he wants to shift the tax burden from
Speaker 5: over taxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes.
Speaker 5: This is right from his website, to more expensive homes
Speaker 5: in richer and whiter neighborhoods. So he wants to increase
Speaker 5: property taxes on white people.
Speaker 1: Oh well, I thought he meant white buildings. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: I was so confused. Yeah, no, you no, Do you
Speaker 1: think it's helpful? Do you think it's helpful now that
Speaker 1: you have the John Birch Society. You have the young
Speaker 1: Republicans and others that are on this twitterjiha to get
Speaker 1: this guy deported. I understand the frustration, but like the
Speaker 1: whole point of what's going on right now is there's
Speaker 1: a legal path and a not legal path, and we
Speaker 1: because the media for too long has refused to acknowledge
Speaker 1: the existence of the duality of these things. So as
Speaker 1: frustrated as I do like that he's got beef with
Speaker 1: Fitty sent too now, but I so so you think
Speaker 1: of the if he is mayor, it's not going to
Speaker 1: go well, is what I'm picking up from you.
Speaker 5: Oh No, And that's the thing. If it goes well
Speaker 5: for him and his and his priorities, his agenda, it
Speaker 5: will go very not well for the residents and also
Speaker 5: but it will go very well I think for other cities. Looks.
Speaker 5: I talked about this on I guess it was Monday
Speaker 5: or whenever, after the primary Whinever Tuesday. So yeah, Charlotte
Speaker 5: is the second largest financial capital in America, behind only
Speaker 5: New York. And I said, I opened my show, I said,
Speaker 5: if the banks in Charlotte are not right now hiring
Speaker 5: headhunters to go after these finance and banking people up
Speaker 5: in New York if they're not like I actually just
Speaker 5: heard yesterday that one of the oldest, biggest law firms
Speaker 5: in Charlotte was moving out of the Bank of America building.
Speaker 5: They've been basically, you know, forced to move from what
Speaker 5: I understand, because the bank needs the floors.
Speaker 1: Well, it's not just employees. I think you're going to
Speaker 1: see wholesale financial you know, headquarters in New York move
Speaker 1: out of there. In Charlotte, Florida got a bunch of them.
Speaker 1: But I think that Charlotte, Raleigh, you know, the North
Speaker 1: Carolina at large may very well feel that. So I
Speaker 1: guess that's in that positive But again, the trickle down
Speaker 1: impact everybody else.
Speaker 2: Gurge your loins man.
Speaker 5: Well, and I would say there is a benefit to
Speaker 5: you know, spreading these financial service and industry members, you know,
Speaker 5: outside of just one district like New York City. There
Speaker 5: is a benefit to that sort of a decentralization. If
Speaker 5: they pick up and move to different states, that might
Speaker 5: be a benefit rather than concentrating at all, you know,
Speaker 5: in one three block area. So like that's there may
Speaker 5: be benefits, But for the people who are living in
Speaker 5: New York this, like there's a reason communism fails, and
Speaker 5: this guy is going to have tried it correctly yet
Speaker 5: So well, and that's the thing too, like he's a
Speaker 5: member of the Assembly, and if he wanted to do
Speaker 5: this stuff, why didn't he do it already? You know?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think Clomo pointed that out. He's like, hey,
Speaker 1: these things you want to do are almost exclusively done
Speaker 1: by the job you're currently.
Speaker 5: In, right, yeah, right, yeah, classic Nepo baby, Trustafarian kid.
Speaker 5: You know dad was a well professor. Yeah, well he
Speaker 5: was an colonialist professor. Yeah, his mom was the filmmaker,
Speaker 5: and his dad was a Columbia University professor, because of
Speaker 5: course he's a Columbia you professor, of course.
Speaker 1: All right, real quick, So the city of Charlotte hates
Speaker 1: Tesla's Yeah.
Speaker 5: Apparently, Oh no, no, the city council woman who removed it.
Speaker 5: It's a list of approved and Tesla has been on
Speaker 5: this list for evs for you knowever, and for just
Speaker 5: out of the blue, she pulled that list and said
Speaker 5: they should not get any contracts and she cited safety concerns.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, not no offered, no evidence offered, no research offered,
Speaker 1: no comparative analysis with the other carmakers that are on
Speaker 1: that list.
Speaker 5: She just said she had some safety concerns about this
Speaker 5: this brand and had nothing to do with Elon Musk.
Speaker 5: Nothing to do with Elon Musk. And six of the
Speaker 5: Democrats on the council approved that.
Speaker 2: So we made it.
Speaker 5: About a week. Yeah, a week without a Charlotte City
Speaker 5: Council scandal.
Speaker 1: I mean, you guys are putting up real numbers, and
Speaker 1: I appreciate we are. I really I think Raleigh Greensborough
Speaker 1: need to kick it into high gear because we've had
Speaker 1: some stuff. Don't get me wrong. The Christmas Parade to
Speaker 1: Bacle might be the worst among them. But you guys
Speaker 1: just every week producing, all right, Pete, I really appreciate it. Man,
Speaker 1: hang on the line. I want to ask you something
Speaker 1: off the air. Yeah, okay, all right, so Pete calendar
Speaker 1: there put him on hold without hanging up on him.
Speaker 1: Here on the Cacoda Radio program. Lots more to get
Speaker 1: into in our final half hour, got news and all
Speaker 1: that coming up.
Speaker 2: Hang on.
Speaker 1: I lost my AirPods. Now, they were the older ones.
Speaker 1: I had them forever. They weren't really holding a great charge,
Speaker 1: But I'm cheap and they worked whatever. So I was
Speaker 1: waiting for him to give up the ghost and they
Speaker 1: just did it all at once because I left him somewhere.
Speaker 1: So I yesterday was like, all right, I got to
Speaker 1: get some new ones. There's no way in hell I
Speaker 1: was going to go over the Apple store just for those,
Speaker 1: because you can buy them in a lot of different retailers.
Speaker 1: And so I found the retailer that had they had
Speaker 1: them like I think it was thirty dollars off, so
Speaker 1: I got a pretty good deal there. Went over to
Speaker 1: the store to go pick them up, and I was
Speaker 1: in there and nobody knows how to access them. And
Speaker 1: that's only after I found the one employee who I'm
Speaker 1: pretty sure was trying to hide from me. And this
Speaker 1: is I'm not going to tell you which store it is,
Speaker 1: but it's a big chain retail store, and I mean
Speaker 1: in a larger size too, where they got a bunch
Speaker 1: of stuff retails cooked.
Speaker 2: Man, Man, there are so many industries that are cooked,
Speaker 2: like completely since COVID. Like it's just some people just
Speaker 2: don't care anymore, or they use COVID as an excuse.
Speaker 1: Now, conceptually you could pivot, and you know, cause I
Speaker 1: like the pick it up at the store option if
Speaker 1: I need it, because then I can get it all prepaid.
Speaker 1: We're good to go, right, just swing in there. I
Speaker 1: didn't do that. I just I just figured out if
Speaker 1: they had any in stock, which it said they did.
Speaker 1: But I walked into that store and I couldn't find
Speaker 1: a nobody. No, And I finally found a guy who
Speaker 1: super nice guy got him for me. Yeah, but then
Speaker 1: when you find somebody, you got to hope that they're
Speaker 1: capable of like doing anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, the other person was like, I don't know where
Speaker 1: those are, and I'm like, well, I can see some,
Speaker 1: but if you have to go in the back and
Speaker 1: get when this guy got he you know, got it
Speaker 1: real quick. So I get them out of the box
Speaker 1: and I go to plug them in, uh to, because
Speaker 1: I got the charger in the vehicle to plug him
Speaker 1: in the thing that plugs my iPhone, it's.
Speaker 2: A different plug now. It's a different plug now.
Speaker 1: So I now have three Apple devices that all require
Speaker 1: a different charging plug.
Speaker 2: And that's no way intentional.
Speaker 1: Right, Well, so Apple going now to the straits, the
Speaker 1: UBC or whatever it is. They kind of had their
Speaker 1: hand forced in that a little bit by the European union.
Speaker 1: But also we're kind of getting threatened by lawmakers because
Speaker 1: they were doing all this other these other cables, and
Speaker 1: people are like this is bs, But in reality it
Speaker 1: was good for them because then they got to change
Speaker 1: to a different cable. But now that I know that,
Speaker 1: you know, an Android plug will also work for that,
Speaker 1: I've actually it'd probably be like some weird power difference
Speaker 1: and I'll cook the headphones. I don't know it came
Speaker 1: with a cable. But still it's just the the annoyance
Speaker 1: of the whole process.
Speaker 2: I still I don't like earbuds. I hate earbuds. I'm
Speaker 2: still like I'm I'm I'm so old school with this,
Speaker 2: Like I still want the wired headphones, Like I still
Speaker 2: want those, and I just can't. I can't deal with
Speaker 2: the earbuds. Man.
Speaker 1: Here's why I love the earbuds because if I'm using them,
Speaker 1: Let's say you're in a situation where you're streaming something
Speaker 1: off your phone, maybe you're listening, maybe you're on an
Speaker 1: airplane or something, right, and you got that thing streaming,
Speaker 1: you got it plugged in there on your seat. If
Speaker 1: you go up to use like the rest of or whatever,
Speaker 1: your music never stops. So then you don't have to
Speaker 1: interact with people, which is really the main goal of
Speaker 1: those things.
Speaker 2: But if you're wired, it's really cool because you go
Speaker 2: to the gym and then while you're working out the
Speaker 2: chords swinging gold up into everything and yeah, phones keep
Speaker 2: flying off your head and they knock out the influencer.
Speaker 2: Idiot next to you as trying to film and they're fantastic.
Speaker 1: Okay, hopefully he doesn't get strangled with that chord for
Speaker 1: filming in the bathroom. By the way, I keep seeing
Speaker 1: more of that. Is that not against Jim rules to
Speaker 1: film yourself in the mirror? Clearly in the locker room.
Speaker 2: I would think it is. Yeah, okay, all right. So
Speaker 2: you talk about like younger kids and like these like
Speaker 2: industries where like a lot of times they try to
Speaker 2: hide from doing work because they've seen that too. No,
Speaker 2: come on, but it's funny. So we do the drive
Speaker 2: up at you know, like say like a target, like
Speaker 2: you go and you do the drive up and uh,
Speaker 2: I've we've seen this numerous times. So we have two
Speaker 2: vehicles and Markey's vehicle is the newer one. It's like
Speaker 2: a twenty twenty four okay, but it doesn't have the
Speaker 2: button in the back that closes the back gate. Right,
Speaker 2: so you have to go out. Oh no, which is
Speaker 2: no big deal, I know, and you have to you
Speaker 2: go out and just close it on your own. But
Speaker 2: these kids will come out with your order and they
Speaker 2: put this stuff in the back and this has happened
Speaker 2: numerous times now, and they just walk away. No, no,
Speaker 2: it's even worse than walking away. So they'll look up
Speaker 2: right for the button. Yeah, stuff in the back, and
Speaker 2: they look up for the button and there's no button there.
Speaker 2: And this has happened like three times now, three different people.
Speaker 2: They'll the kids and they're they're like sixteen, seventeen, eighteen
Speaker 2: at the at the oldest. Right.
Speaker 6: They'll look up and they'll they'll push an imaginary button
Speaker 6: that isn't there, and they walk away because they they're
Speaker 6: looking up and they panic and they're like, is that
Speaker 6: a rotary phone?
Speaker 1: I don't know how to shut up the tag of
Speaker 1: the back of the car, and they just they try
Speaker 1: to play it cool, but inside their head they're panicking
Speaker 1: because they're sure and they don't know how to close
Speaker 1: the back of the car the trunk. They have no idea,
Speaker 1: So they push an imaginary button and they slowly walk
Speaker 1: away and.
Speaker 2: They ghost you. They don't look at you at all.
Speaker 2: They're just like, I'm going back in the store now.
Speaker 2: It's the best thing in the world. I love that,
Speaker 2: manst out laughing every single time. I love that.
Speaker 1: Do they what do you say, imaginary butt?
Speaker 2: Are they?
Speaker 1: Are they pushing something that at least is like an
Speaker 1: indention or something.
Speaker 2: No, there's not.
Speaker 6: They walk up and they just go.
Speaker 2: And they walk away.
Speaker 1: They're like a pretend a pretend hand washer. At that point,
Speaker 1: what Jeff mar really wants to do weather Fast, He's
Speaker 1: gonna have to hang on in a second. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? Because you know you can't
Speaker 1: ask them. You have some of the brave kids of this,
Speaker 1: the braver younger kids. They're the ones that come out
Speaker 1: without the face mask and that you're twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: the brave ones. The kids will go, so do I
Speaker 1: just like close it? I just like use my hands
Speaker 1: and I touched the trunk and I close it, and
Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, just slam me shut. And they're like
Speaker 1: oh and they close and they're super excited.
Speaker 2: Before that was wild.
Speaker 1: This is like what it was like the Live of
Speaker 1: the nineteen hundreds, dude. So here's the other thing, because
Speaker 1: I almost had the reverse of it. But this is
Speaker 1: the different in the generations, right, So I uh, one
Speaker 1: of the hotels I stayed at as part of the travels,
Speaker 1: not the one in Nashville. Just to be clear, this
Speaker 1: is not our client's hotel. It has it has it
Speaker 1: doesn't have buttons in the elevator. You have a pad
Speaker 1: outside the elevator. You hit the floor number you want,
Speaker 1: and then it'll think for a moment and then it
Speaker 1: will assign you an elevator because there's like four or
Speaker 1: six depending on how which of the hallways you're in,
Speaker 1: and then you and it's just weird though, because at
Speaker 1: first you try, you're like, it wasn't clicking with me
Speaker 1: because I'd never seen that in a hotel before. Maybe
Speaker 1: you guys have seen it. I had never seen one
Speaker 1: where you have this like iPad thing on the outside.
Speaker 1: You select your thing and then it'll assign you one
Speaker 1: and then all you have to.
Speaker 2: Do is get in.
Speaker 1: It'll take you there and if you know where to look,
Speaker 1: you can confirm it's your elevator. They have like a
Speaker 1: screen inside the door, so not inside the elevator, but
Speaker 1: on the side of the door, so like, a younger
Speaker 1: person probably figure it out. But if they didn't, I
Speaker 1: think they just take the stairs.
Speaker 4: Not me.
Speaker 1: I walked right back into the lobby. I'm like, this
Speaker 1: is dumb. How does this work? This is a dumb
Speaker 1: thing you've done. There's no buttons in the elevator. I
Speaker 1: thought I was walking into a trap from the movie Saw? Like,
Speaker 1: how do you if there's a problem, how do.
Speaker 2: You call doors closed? I should not have stayed here.
Speaker 1: All right, let me grab weather and we'll do some
Speaker 1: phone calls the last even if anything's good. Jeff mar
Speaker 1: from the Weather Channel here, all right, I'm sorry, I'm
Speaker 1: doing the old man get off my lawn thing.
Speaker 2: But whatever, I hear you. Yeah, just make it make
Speaker 2: it easy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, not too bad for us.
Speaker 10: As we start off this morning, we'll see some sunshine,
Speaker 10: another hot window this afternoon up to ninety six, the
Speaker 10: heating dex into the triple digits, and as temperatures heat
Speaker 10: up some afternoon and evening thunder storms may develop. Alver
Speaker 10: night party cloudy down to seventy three. We're not going
Speaker 10: to have much of a change at all the weather
Speaker 10: pattern for the weekend. That means morning sunshine followed by
Speaker 10: scattered afternoon and early evening thunder storms each day. I
Speaker 10: temperature tomorrow and Sunday in the mid nineties that he
Speaker 10: did dex though each afternoon flirting with one hundred degrees.
Speaker 5: That's all.
Speaker 10: How do we feel at times when you factor in
Speaker 10: the humidity level?
Speaker 1: All right, Jeff, thank you, stay cool and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: have a good weekend. Okay, thanks, all right, and then
Speaker 1: we'll come back with mister Jeff Bellinger here in just
Speaker 1: a few minutes and maybe a few phone calls, hang on,
Speaker 1: what's going on?
Speaker 7: Oh, good morning, casey. Investors are upbeat today about trade
Speaker 7: and interest rates. Commerce Secretary Howard Nick told Bloomberg the
Speaker 7: trade understanding that was reached with China last month has
Speaker 7: been finalized. Chinese officials have since echoed the Secretary's comments
Speaker 7: about the deal it has stabilized US China ties. Let
Speaker 7: Nick said the White House is looking to reach agreements
Speaker 7: with ten major trading partners in the next two weeks.
Speaker 7: As for interest rates, there's still optimism that rates will
Speaker 7: be lowered later in the year, even though a majority
Speaker 7: of the Fed officials who have commented recently have said
Speaker 7: it's probably not going to happen next month. Stock market
Speaker 7: futures higher right across the board this morning. Now futures
Speaker 7: rough one hundred and thirty eight points. The inflation gauge
Speaker 7: favored by the Federal Reserve ticked higher last month. The
Speaker 7: PCE Price index rose a tenth of a percent, the
Speaker 7: core PCE up two tenths percent. The inflatent gauge part
Speaker 7: of the monthly report on personal income and spending both
Speaker 7: were down in May, and comes by four tenths percent,
Speaker 7: spending by one tenth of a percent. Targets trying a
Speaker 7: couple of new things and some of its stores workers
Speaker 7: are able to use smartphones to lock and unlock the
Speaker 7: display cases that hold items that are easily and often stolen.
Speaker 7: It's faster than using keys on its website. Target is
Speaker 7: offering bundles of items and testing bulk sales of some products.
Speaker 7: Wants to determine whether that strategy will give sales a boost.
Speaker 7: The worst may be over for Nike, the sports where
Speaker 7: company says it's year long sales decline has hit bottom.
Speaker 7: This suggests strategic moves by CEO Elliott Hill. They're paying off.
Speaker 7: Nike shares are up strongly in pre market trading up
Speaker 7: eleven percent right now, and Casey, buy some extra stamps
Speaker 7: next time you're at a post office. A Postal Service
Speaker 7: spokesman told USA Today the agency's oversight board is considering
Speaker 7: raising the price of forever stamps and some other products,
Speaker 7: and if the hikes are approved, it's likely they will
Speaker 7: take effect on July thirteenth.
Speaker 2: Casey, all right.
Speaker 1: Thank you much, Jeff. I have yourself a good weekend.
Speaker 1: We'll talk Monday.
Speaker 7: Okay, sounds good.
Speaker 5: Take care.
Speaker 2: There you go.
Speaker 1: Jeff Bellinger from Bloomberg News. I was Ross. I are
Speaker 1: still laughing about the phantom button with the kids. I
Speaker 1: will tell you. I remember so a few years ago.
Speaker 1: How old is that? I think he was sixteen or
Speaker 1: seventeen at the time. So it's my bud, my buddy's son,
Speaker 1: and he I'm doing something on the computer, but he
Speaker 1: was kind of he wanted to show me something and
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, hold on, I'm doing this. I don't
Speaker 1: have it saved. He's like, well, just you know, save
Speaker 1: it real quick and I'll show you. Just click the
Speaker 1: save square. And I'm like, does what is the saves square?
Speaker 1: And then it dawned upon me because Ross you know
Speaker 1: in the Microsoft if the home has a little house
Speaker 1: logo next to it, and new has like a piece
Speaker 1: of paper, and then Open has a little open folder.
Speaker 1: So next to the save square is a picture of
Speaker 1: a of a disc, a computer disc. I'm like, that's
Speaker 1: a disc. That's that a It's yeah, it's a square.
Speaker 1: It's a bit because it's not just a square. It
Speaker 1: has the little upper part too. If you look at
Speaker 1: the logoing, they.
Speaker 2: Have no idea what the original picture was supposed to be,
Speaker 2: like you.
Speaker 1: And then I said, I said, that's how hard do
Speaker 1: you even? Have you heard of a floppy disc?
Speaker 2: They're probably also confused if you're talking about emblems on
Speaker 2: an iPhone, like they probably confused by the phone icon
Speaker 2: as well. Ah yeah, because it's the old rotary phone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, or the handset Yeah for sure, that's yeah. He's like,
Speaker 1: just click the safe square. I'm like, but it's not
Speaker 1: a thing anyway. All right, Hey, Donna, what's up?
Speaker 2: How are you?
Speaker 11: Did you miss me?
Speaker 2: I did?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw that you. You went on a Twitter
Speaker 1: tangent over the last like twelve hours. All right, I
Speaker 1: guess she's feeling better. She's back, so I am bad.
Speaker 11: The hero So have you had a chance to see
Speaker 11: the latest Atlantic piece.
Speaker 8: Boat Jaws.
Speaker 1: I saw everyone writing about the fiftieth anniversary. What did
Speaker 1: the Atlantic do? I'm sure it's horrible.
Speaker 5: Oh yes, of.
Speaker 11: Course it portrays divisions very differently than the novels that
Speaker 11: inspired it.
Speaker 2: In in what sense?
Speaker 11: Oh god, well, let's see in ways that anticipated a
Speaker 11: fight that has arguably defined American politics since twenty sixteen,
Speaker 11: which I find ironic. While Tyler A. Harper goes on
Speaker 11: to attack Matt Hooper, the arrogant credential expert, predential expert
Speaker 11: study quote unquote as.
Speaker 4: The bad guy, Well he has a firewall.
Speaker 1: Oh there it is the blockbuster, the blockbuster, the captured
Speaker 1: or growing American.
Speaker 2: You know that, dude, the stupid shark. The first thing
Speaker 2: is eating is.
Speaker 1: A blonde hair, blue eyed bubble head named Chrissy.
Speaker 11: And it was a Democrat.
Speaker 2: Man you met, and you meant you met paywall, not firewall.
Speaker 11: So just yeah, I met paywall, paywall. You know that
Speaker 11: the Democrat was the mayor. He wanted to keep the
Speaker 11: beaches open, right, he didn't care.
Speaker 1: How about about politics? And I could have defeated that
Speaker 1: shark in a minute.
Speaker 11: Wait a minute, the small business owners didn't want to
Speaker 11: be on welfare all winter. And actually it was the
Speaker 11: arrogant credential expert who ultimately did chill DAGs because he
Speaker 11: gave h Yeah, he plugged the idea about the tank.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I could have handled this in a minute,
Speaker 1: all right, Donnie, ever been in the house. It's got
Speaker 1: a big dog and like a cat, who runs that
Speaker 1: relationship usually.
Speaker 2: The cat, that's right.
Speaker 1: So if they'd have just thrown cats at the shark,
Speaker 1: this thing would have been over in a minute, damn right.
Speaker 2: Yeah. In fact, there's a bunch of sharks. I gotta
Speaker 2: I gotta let you go. I can get one more call.
Speaker 2: Yeah you too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know, hopefully Ray brought some cats with
Speaker 1: him because they alpha whatever they get around. Boston Paul
Speaker 1: not to be confused with Denver Paul.
Speaker 2: What's up?
Speaker 8: Who use the stamps anymore? I was just calling to
Speaker 8: ask you a few days are they going to sell
Speaker 8: lucy cigarettes.
Speaker 1: Me at the government? I see what, I know what
Speaker 1: you're doing. Ever since Ross joked that I scream now,
Speaker 1: Boston Paul sent me an email every morning, go why
