Speaker 1: I have been absolutely not doing my job this morning.
Speaker 1: I blame one of you, and I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 1: is it a guy thing? Ross? Are you? Were you
Speaker 1: aware they were demolitioning the Tropicana Casino in Vegas, like
Speaker 1: right now or about a half hour ago. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: they're doing the whole big employee. Can you imagine? Can
Speaker 1: you imagine if you're if you're a crew and you
Speaker 1: were like nine tenths of the way through your hest planning,
Speaker 1: how you must feel watching that because I didn't know
Speaker 1: what was happening. All right, you're getting ready, You got
Speaker 1: the digging machine from the chunnel, get all your dudes.
Speaker 1: You probably paid out some bribes, so you're financially invested
Speaker 1: in well, the chunnel thing too. And and then uh no,
Speaker 1: Ocean's eleven style thing because they just put a bunch
Speaker 1: of dynamite.
Speaker 2: Didn't it.
Speaker 1: So I guess that's where they're building the baseball field
Speaker 1: in Vegas. I don't no, you know, you know what
Speaker 1: I was just thinking of this? Yeah, I have actually
Speaker 1: stayed at the Tropic Canna way back in the day,
Speaker 1: and it wasn't nice then, so I can't even imagine
Speaker 1: what it looks like inside right now. But well now
Speaker 1: now it's not an issue. But yeah, building demolition. One
Speaker 1: of our listeners sent it to me, Mitch, thank you, Mitch.
Speaker 1: Like I had like an instant four year old boy reaction.
Speaker 1: I'm like, they're gonna blow a building up. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go watch that. So I sat there and had to
Speaker 1: listen to these idiots bloviate. And then the first time
Speaker 1: I'm watching, I'm watching on like a Bally stream, and
Speaker 1: then they're like two minutes in there, like you need
Speaker 1: a Bally account to continue, and and then so I
Speaker 1: had to go find another one. But holy hell, man,
Speaker 1: oh like like flies to well, you know, bees to honey,
Speaker 1: so to speak. So h yeah, that was that was
Speaker 1: pretty cool And I would I would have told you
Speaker 1: about it before I didn't know. Yeah, you tell how
Speaker 1: many guys don't want to push the big comically sized
Speaker 1: plunge your thing once in their life. It doesn't have
Speaker 1: to be for a Vegas casino, although that's a pretty
Speaker 1: good get. It could be I don't know, for a
Speaker 1: New Mine. It could be your your your arch nemesis house.
Speaker 1: I mean, but the push and the big, the big
Speaker 1: plunger thing, bully hells, I want to do that at
Speaker 1: least once any is anybody in demolition out there? Can
Speaker 1: I come push a plunger on something. I don't know why.
Speaker 1: I just had this urge watching that so and why
Speaker 1: should it be billionaires in business suits at five in
Speaker 1: the morning doing it? Well, I guess it'd be like
Speaker 1: two thirty in the morning their time or something. Is
Speaker 1: there on they're on West Coast. I don't know, man AnyWho.
Speaker 1: That's the thing that happened. So there you are armed
Speaker 1: with a little information to get things rolling alrighty coming
Speaker 1: up on the show, we were floating this theory yesterday
Speaker 1: right the burn it all down and you know, Joe
Speaker 1: Biden's intentionally doing things to undermine Kamala or really undermine anybody.
Speaker 1: And you know what, as more and more stuff comes out,
Speaker 1: we had reports yesterday they don't like each other that
Speaker 1: I'm not shocked about. I never got the vibe that
Speaker 1: they were besties, even if she stood in the field
Speaker 1: with the phone to your ear and was just so proud.
Speaker 1: It has been contentious and now she's got to go
Speaker 1: out and she, essentially I thought, had to run under
Speaker 1: the premise that everything's sucks, which she is, which, of course,
Speaker 1: if you're Joe Biden and you know you have a
Speaker 1: moment to actually be cognitive about it, that's pretty damned
Speaker 1: and Sultan. But also what he has nothing to lose
Speaker 1: right there's there is nothing for him to lose. He's
Speaker 1: not going to run for elected office anymore. They'll, like,
Speaker 1: you know, they'll give him some honorarium stuff like that,
Speaker 1: but nobody's hiring him. He's not going to jump into
Speaker 1: a CEO's position at a tech company. And so what
Speaker 1: does it matter? How do I know? There's apparently a
Speaker 1: book coming out to where Joe Biden lays at the
Speaker 1: feet of Barack Obama the current putin situation for basically
Speaker 1: not doing anything with the annexation of Crimea. So what
Speaker 1: am I supposed to think he or maybe maybe his
Speaker 1: wife is doing. I don't know, but I am more
Speaker 1: and more convinced of that. And meanwhile, even though she's running,
Speaker 1: essentially everything sucks right now, I'll be here to fix it.
Speaker 1: She still went on the View yesterday and said.
Speaker 3: This, would you have done something differently than President Biden? Well,
Speaker 3: if anything, would you have done something differently than President Biden?
Speaker 3: During the past four years?
Speaker 4: There is not a thing that comes to mind in
Speaker 4: terms of and I've been a part of most of
Speaker 4: the decisions that have had impact.
Speaker 1: But I am so confused. Wasn't that the thing that
Speaker 1: him saying that about her was detrimental? And then she
Speaker 1: comes out and says that, don't worry. Later she'll blame
Speaker 1: Trump for I don't know everything, But like, how am
Speaker 1: I supposed to read her? I mean, I understand that
Speaker 1: people like this is not a smart woman, but she's smart.
Speaker 1: She's been in politics to the you know, California politics
Speaker 1: is its own thing, but she's she's been in politics
Speaker 1: long enough. You don't say that unless you want to
Speaker 1: say that, right. I am so incredibly confused. But yeah,
Speaker 1: so she was on the view. We got a little
Speaker 1: more audio from that also coming up on the show.
Speaker 1: Let's see here more on the DeSantis thing too. She lobbed,
Speaker 1: you know, she loved that bomb out. I tried to
Speaker 1: call him and he didn't pick up the phone and
Speaker 1: he wouldn't talk to me, And she got absolutely leveled
Speaker 1: by Ron DeSantis but also Joe Biden yesterday, I did
Speaker 1: it again. You can't convince me otherwise over you know
Speaker 1: what's happening down in Florida, which of course we'll talk
Speaker 1: about with Ray Stagic as the as the show unfold. Normally,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't dig into other local radio shows.
Speaker 1: Everybody can just kind of go do their own thing.
Speaker 1: I mean, sure, but it's you know, the national public radio,
Speaker 1: or it's you know, some sort of large podcast or
Speaker 1: rogan whatever that'll get coverage, so I don't normally lean
Speaker 1: into it. Somebody sent me an interview yesterday of the
Speaker 1: mayor of Chimney Rock, obviously one of the communities absolutely devastated,
Speaker 1: and I I'm listening to it two different ways. I'm
Speaker 1: listening to it. It's a host. I believe he's from Greenville,
Speaker 1: South Carolina, right, I have to look. But he's interviewing
Speaker 1: the mayor, and there's this weird exchange about the woman
Speaker 1: apparently who died in Chimney Rock, right, because they had
Speaker 1: one fatality, and that's what they're talking about. And I
Speaker 1: can't tell if it's people nervously flushing out a story
Speaker 1: or maybe the host nervously laughing. It's really weird, and
Speaker 1: so I want to play that for you. I'm just
Speaker 1: curious your opinion. I'm not here to I don't even
Speaker 1: know if I'm mad, because I just I don't understand
Speaker 1: the range of emotions there, and I don't under but
Speaker 1: I also understand and I have done this but early
Speaker 1: in my career, where when you're not cognizant of it,
Speaker 1: the way you're reacting to something that some people are
Speaker 1: saying is in and of itself a tacit endorsement, right,
Speaker 1: And so you got to be careful. It's with the
Speaker 1: words that you use. You know, if you say something
Speaker 1: like that's right and it's not right, you're still kind
Speaker 1: of signing on for it. So you know, normally you
Speaker 1: give a hm hm hm, and you know, you move
Speaker 1: the conversation along or whatever they're explaining. But and you
Speaker 1: got to be very careful. You don't sign you don't
Speaker 1: sign on for it. And one of the ways that
Speaker 1: people when they're a little nervous about something that a
Speaker 1: guest is satan and I've seen this before, they'll laugh nervously.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's what's going on here, but
Speaker 1: the whole thing seems incredibly disrespectful. But again, I'll let
Speaker 1: you be the judge. So all that and more. Oh,
Speaker 1: and Trump has no filter, man gets no filter. If
Speaker 1: you haven't heard, if you if you know, you know,
Speaker 1: and if you don't you will know soon. But first
Speaker 1: a break six sixteen. Hang on, I know you got
Speaker 1: your hands full with the dude who literally came in
Speaker 1: the day after the Afghan withdraw and was getting ready
Speaker 1: to do in an election day attack. You guys are
Speaker 1: busy with that, so let me let me clarify. But
Speaker 1: several listeners have said, hey, buddy, I know you want
Speaker 1: to blow something up. Let's shoot some Tannerite stuff. And
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. Always fun, always a good time, Russ.
Speaker 1: I think that would be fun. That'd be a fun
Speaker 1: thing for you to do. Shoot Tanner right. I think
Speaker 1: you get so much more joy if whatever you were
Speaker 1: shooting exploded like a car bomb. On the other side,
Speaker 1: but it's not the same detonating a giant, thousand room
Speaker 1: casino shooting up your old washing machine two different things.
Speaker 5: Now, do you like push the plunger down and look
Speaker 5: at it or do you like turn away from it
Speaker 5: and walk away in slow motion?
Speaker 1: Oh that's behind you?
Speaker 6: Like?
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, you practice one that you watch. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: if he doesn't immediately detonate either you push the lever
Speaker 1: down and you're walking and you've got a distance, so
Speaker 1: you know, you can feel the heat.
Speaker 5: It's the Joker walking out from the hospital in the
Speaker 5: dark night.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's one of the most icon There's a whole
Speaker 1: documentary it's called walking Away. It's not like super super professional,
Speaker 1: and it was on YouTube. It was well done. So
Speaker 1: I'm like walking Away and it's just shows in movies
Speaker 1: like all of the Fame. I like, that's a that's
Speaker 1: one that's like a big iconic thing in movies. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I love those compilation videos. Then you get into the
Speaker 5: sunglasses too. I watched another one recently because we've gotten
Speaker 5: really into the watching it home at night, the Mission
Speaker 5: Impossible series. Oh, you just got into that because I
Speaker 5: sort of missed the entire thing and I've really been
Speaker 5: enjoying it. Yeah, okay, good, Yeah, So but I saw
Speaker 5: one really it gets away by the way, Okay, good.
Speaker 1: Sorry.
Speaker 5: I saw one though, where it was just a compilation
Speaker 5: of Tom Cruise running in all his movies because he
Speaker 5: does a lot of running and he has he has
Speaker 5: like a specific form to him when he runs, like
Speaker 5: his arms are bent in a certain way, and it's great.
Speaker 5: It's like one movie to the next to the next
Speaker 5: to the next, going like spanning decades.
Speaker 1: Of just him running. I mean, you know it's funny
Speaker 1: because you say that, and in my mind I could
Speaker 1: immediately picture how he runs yep, just because you've seen
Speaker 1: it so many damn times.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: All right, so, how how deep are you?
Speaker 7: What is there?
Speaker 1: Seven of those? I think we finished seven and a half, right,
Speaker 1: seven and a half?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 5: Eight is coming out because the last one, I guess
Speaker 5: was a two parter. Yeah, we just finished five I
Speaker 5: think or was it six? Lost Track? I think it's five.
Speaker 5: I think Fallout was next, which I believe was six.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I got to do a good binge. You know what
Speaker 1: I haven't done. I'll try to remember the last time
Speaker 1: I did it a Bond binge. But then you got
Speaker 1: to make decisions like do you just do Connery Bond?
Speaker 1: For the older Bonds? Do you do? You do you
Speaker 1: watch all of them? What do you think of the
Speaker 1: Pierce Brosnan era? I mean, it's look, the dude who
Speaker 1: plays Bond now, great, but Pierce Brosnan was a good
Speaker 1: nineties Bond, right, because yeah, he was sort of like
Speaker 1: our childhood Bond.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: It was just I don't know how to describe like
Speaker 1: it works in the nineties, it doesn't work in the
Speaker 1: gritty twenty twenties. Piers Prosden couldn't do it.
Speaker 5: Plus, I mean thanks that we got Goldennight the video
Speaker 5: game from him.
Speaker 1: So oh yeah, yeah, you know how many hours I
Speaker 1: spent sitting somewhere sniping my friends. Oh I missed that game, dude.
Speaker 1: That was the That was the original Battle Riale with
Speaker 1: your friends games for me. Yeah, And I'm not saying,
Speaker 1: you know one thing when you're playing a game together,
Speaker 1: I understand that, But like just we had we had
Speaker 1: one up at the cabin. We had an old system
Speaker 1: up at the cabin, even after it was getting dated.
Speaker 1: And you know, you're up there in wilderness, you're getting
Speaker 1: ready to go hunt elk the next day, you're excited
Speaker 1: and we're up till three in the morning proximity mining dudes.
Speaker 1: It's it was a ride of passage. But no, that's
Speaker 1: why Piers Prosdon worked then. Although what was he had
Speaker 1: a movie that came out Is it November?
Speaker 2: Man?
Speaker 1: I like five six years ago. I was pretty good,
Speaker 1: a little grittier than the Bondy portrayed. But all right, now,
Speaker 1: now I got a you know, pick some rainy weather
Speaker 1: and give me a little bomb thing.
Speaker 5: I think November Man was in that genre of older
Speaker 5: retired assassin, so.
Speaker 1: It to come out it was pure Taken. It was
Speaker 1: pure Taken copy right because Taken instigated that and we
Speaker 1: were And it was also the era of the expendables
Speaker 1: when Taken came out right, so like there was there's
Speaker 1: the there's just a window for things.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I saw yesterday on Twitter that
Speaker 1: blew my mind. It was about a two minute compilation
Speaker 1: obviously a student project, and it's just somebody from the
Speaker 1: AV class walking around a high school I think in
Speaker 1: Florida in nineteen ninety seven or eight, so essentially when
Speaker 1: I graduated, were ross graduated and then just asking them
Speaker 1: what their favorite move or what their favorite song is,
Speaker 1: and it's all stuff you've heard of. But just I'm
Speaker 1: sitting there, I'm like, is that how we looked? Is
Speaker 1: that what we were wearing to school? Just thinking back, man,
Speaker 1: it just looks so dated and I felt so old
Speaker 1: watching that. Have you guys, maybe you watched the Colbert Show.
Speaker 1: I do not. I don't even know what his show's called.
Speaker 1: Is he he's the one who took over for Leno.
Speaker 1: I don't not Leno, but yeah, but that is he
Speaker 1: The Tonight Show is Colbert The Tonight Show. Okay, I
Speaker 1: know he's got dancing needles. He's the Late Show, so
Speaker 1: he's Letterman Show. That's how I remember these. They will
Speaker 1: forever be those. For some of you, it'll be Carson's show.
Speaker 1: I get that. It's you know, it's your age, but
Speaker 1: one's Letterman Show and the other one's uh Letto Show. Sorry,
Speaker 1: just the way that it is for me, so I
Speaker 1: can't keep track. But anyway, she's with Colbert, and oddly
Speaker 1: she's drinking a beer. We're not gonna deep dive of
Speaker 1: that part of it. She's like drinking a beer because
Speaker 1: of the way that she's portrayed as an alcoholic to
Speaker 1: show that she's not. I'm not sure the logic here.
Speaker 1: I didn't watch the I scanned what was going on
Speaker 1: and my brain started to hurt. But that's not why
Speaker 1: we're here. We're here for this. She then did one
Speaker 1: of her accents right, And I don't mean like she
Speaker 1: went to the South and she got a twang, or
Speaker 1: she went to Boston and she put marbles in her mouth.
Speaker 1: I mean she did an accent, and it's not for
Speaker 1: any reason that I can understand. And it's just so
Speaker 1: weird because you know, essentially that's going to be a
Speaker 1: neutral audience. It's a nationwide show. You don't have to
Speaker 1: lean into anything. Sound like you. But it's the accent
Speaker 1: she did. Let me play it before I tell you,
Speaker 1: because I think you'll pick up them.
Speaker 4: Have you no empathy, man, you know, for the suffering
Speaker 4: of other people?
Speaker 1: Have you no sense of purpose?
Speaker 2: What? Dude?
Speaker 1: That is so bizarre? Can I say this? If there's
Speaker 1: one accent you shouldn't lean into, right, If there's if
Speaker 1: there's one accent out there, right, if you want to
Speaker 1: do Russian, I mean, it's gonna be weird. But you
Speaker 1: know you want to uh, I don't know. You want
Speaker 1: to have a frame, you want to do a fake French,
Speaker 1: froggy accent whatever. Jamaica is not the thing you need
Speaker 1: to be leaning into because somebody might because if they
Speaker 1: google Kamala and Jamaica. You're right, you're talking about like
Speaker 1: the family history in that area.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: Well, actually, if they google it, they probably won't see
Speaker 1: that because sure, that's memory hold over on Google. But
Speaker 1: there's a possibility like, oh, she's doing a Jamaican accent,
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Oh my gosh, the largest slave in
Speaker 1: the in Jamaica, the largest plantation. Yeah so but that
Speaker 1: with the beer is like a super strange bit too, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't I'm gonna approach it was worked out. I
Speaker 1: just know the way that it looked when I watched
Speaker 1: about two minutes of it on on Twitter.
Speaker 5: Yes, but it's like a you know, recovering alcoholic. Myself,
Speaker 5: I could say, like, you know, that's that bit is
Speaker 5: I'm going to prove to you I'm not an alcoholic
Speaker 5: by drinking this beer right now?
Speaker 1: That didn't work? Is that not how you change alcoholism?
Speaker 1: You threatened it with a beer in a good time. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna show you who's in charge here man, it's me.
Speaker 1: Oh and then so what's the thing. You have the
Speaker 1: beer and you don't fight or have eight others? I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't understand the challenge.
Speaker 5: I guess well she's on the screen. Yeah, but it
Speaker 5: reminds me of the bit they did with Scott hall Wegg.
Speaker 5: You know he had he had a horrible alcohol problem
Speaker 5: and every thing goes Yeah, it does, everything does, And
Speaker 5: what they did is they were like, you know what
Speaker 5: we're gonna do, Scott, We're going to turn your alcoholism
Speaker 5: into a bit and we're gonna have you drunk, and
Speaker 5: we're gonna have you know, you know, walking around and
Speaker 5: passing out in the ring. And believe it or not,
Speaker 5: that wasn't the healthiest thing for them to do. Sort
Speaker 5: of backfired on them.
Speaker 1: Oh wow. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Imagine him like chugging the beer in the in the
Speaker 5: in the ring and then suddenly going into his razor
Speaker 5: remote accent from w WF.
Speaker 1: You know, I remember, I remember seeing people that were
Speaker 1: mad over uh, stone Cold, just you know, with the
Speaker 1: whole beer thing he did, which is iconic right in
Speaker 1: the from a wrestling perspective. But they're like, it's promoting alcoholism.
Speaker 1: Well no, well the difference was he wasn't an alcoholic. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: This is my point. Yeah, this is my point, Like
Speaker 1: if people are up in uh you know, I got
Speaker 1: their shorts in a bunch over Stone Cold, smashing beers
Speaker 1: and stuff, and there's not that story out there. The
Speaker 1: Scott Hall stuff must have just blew their damn minds.
Speaker 1: The There was an era, absolutely off the rails era
Speaker 1: within within wrestling, and you know, it's it's how you
Speaker 1: perceive it. Obviously there's what's going on now man McMahon
Speaker 1: stepping down and some of the other stuff, but also
Speaker 1: there was just we've talked about it on the show,
Speaker 1: like the characters that she would have out there, even
Speaker 1: you know fifteen years ago, you couldn't have that. What
Speaker 1: did you say? What was the thing you sent me?
Speaker 1: It was a tag team? There is? Is that real?
Speaker 1: I just want to make sure is that real?
Speaker 5: Because I was sending it out to friends yesterday because
Speaker 5: it came across my ex feet and I forgot I
Speaker 5: had forgotten.
Speaker 1: About I get a random text from Raw.
Speaker 5: So I say the screen cap of it, like, you know,
Speaker 5: like the photo of it, and it's just a two
Speaker 5: girls go into the rings and their their ring name
Speaker 5: was the Lesbians. Yeah, they were known as the Lesbians
Speaker 5: during the you know, the Late Attitude era or whatever,
Speaker 5: and it was it was something that Bischoff came up
Speaker 5: with to improve ratings. And that's why I sent you
Speaker 5: the second follow up photo explaining what the screen green
Speaker 5: shot was, because when you see the screenshot and you're
Speaker 5: not familiar, right, you think it's a joke, like You're like,
Speaker 5: there's no way that was your name coming to the Ringley.
Speaker 5: I mean like Finkle like you. I could still hear
Speaker 5: in my head, like Finkle going the lesbians?
Speaker 1: Were they lesbians? I don't know if they ever broke kfe,
Speaker 1: but I don't know who is Asasha Brian and Jenny Lane. Okay,
Speaker 1: well those are not not known people. They wrestled under
Speaker 1: other stuff too, right, I recognize, Hey, man, it was
Speaker 1: a different time. What was there? What was their signature move?
Speaker 1: I don't I don't recall.
Speaker 5: Oh okay, it was one of those things where I
Speaker 5: had completely forgotten about it and then I saw it
Speaker 5: and I was like, oh my god, Yes, I.
Speaker 1: Could speculate, but then we get fired. So that's just
Speaker 1: the fact that you roll that man. Some people have
Speaker 1: no Trump's got no filter. Trump's got it. Did you
Speaker 1: all right? You're probably you're aware of this, right, So
Speaker 1: you know he does this thing when he's when he's talking, Yeah,
Speaker 1: because he's a lot of times he's just he's you know,
Speaker 1: he's just free rolling man, just stream of consciousness. And
Speaker 1: he'll he'll stop and then he'll be like where my
Speaker 1: and then insert whoever it is, and it's caused people
Speaker 1: to get upset. What did he say, where's my black guys?
Speaker 1: One time? And everyone lost their damn mind? But they
Speaker 1: were black guys for Trump or whatever the name was,
Speaker 1: right anyway, So that's going on. So he's I think
Speaker 1: that's at mar a Lago where he's giving that speech
Speaker 1: doesn't matter and he stops and he says this. It's
Speaker 1: hard to hear. He says, where are gays for Trump?
Speaker 1: And there's uh, I'm assuming it's the black dude that
Speaker 1: you see at the end. Anyways, black dude, I don't know,
Speaker 1: just dressed in like, you know, a suit but no
Speaker 1: tie kind of thing, in a cowboy hat, right, and
Speaker 1: Trump goes, you don't look gay, and then they all
Speaker 1: start laughing. I'm just like, holy hell, man. So it's uh,
Speaker 1: it's it's good to be in radio and need a
Speaker 1: bunch of audio because folks, uh.
Speaker 4: Empathy, man, I'm sorry, you know, for the suffering of
Speaker 4: other people.
Speaker 1: All right, you need to have a red stripe, And
Speaker 1: why wouldn't you drink a red stripe too? I was
Speaker 1: just thinking of that. I think it was that, you know,
Speaker 1: it's a standard American logger. They get a red stripe.
Speaker 1: Really own it and one of those rosta banana hats.
Speaker 1: I'm sure. I'm sure the internet will have her photoshop
Speaker 1: by lunch.
Speaker 5: Like the the accent thing, the coding thing is super
Speaker 5: weird when it comes to her. And somebody had mentioned like,
Speaker 5: please put her in front of a group of Asian
Speaker 5: American voters, please just please so we can hear the accent.
Speaker 1: Somebody, isn't it illegal to actually drink out call to no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: no no, it's illegal to be drunk and in control
Speaker 1: of broadcavies. You're going back to like old FCC stuff.
Speaker 1: So because we you know, we had a lot of
Speaker 1: a lot of the same stuff in the world of radio,
Speaker 1: we cut our teeth through. So all right, anyway, six
Speaker 1: forty four Cacy O Day Radio Program. When we come back,
Speaker 1: how dire is it down in Florida? If I get
Speaker 1: and we'll we'll talk to Ray later in the show
Speaker 1: about this. Hopefully I got it. He's very very busy today,
Speaker 1: so I have to be judicious with his time. But yeah,
Speaker 1: this thing hasn't even hit yet, and you got people
Speaker 1: run around, go well, we need a category six hurricane.
Speaker 1: And it's interesting because the people who are screaming at
Speaker 1: the loudest. Are also the people who in every other
Speaker 1: tweet are like, see this hurricane. Yeah, that's climate change.
Speaker 1: We're all going to die. And so pardon me if
Speaker 1: I feel there might be a motivation all of you
Speaker 1: sending Look, all of you sending me what you think
Speaker 1: was the tag team wrestling girls signature move. I promise
Speaker 1: you in the world of I got you beat, but
Speaker 1: we ain't gonna get into it. Okay, So no, just
Speaker 1: f I'm not ignoring your emails, but that's that's where
Speaker 1: we're going to cut that off, all right, six forty
Speaker 1: five pc O Day radio program. So a couple things,
Speaker 1: A couple things I saw yesterday surrounding what's going on
Speaker 1: down in Florida and what should be aiden by all
Speaker 1: accounts and absolutely devastating hurricane approach overnight tonight. I'm not
Speaker 1: sure the exact timeline here, but I know it's this
Speaker 1: evening into overnight. So you see him, Do you see
Speaker 1: the interview there? Apparently there's a dude with one leg
Speaker 1: who lives on a little, tiny, busted sailboat. They're in Tampa.
Speaker 1: I didn't see exactly where it is, but he's on
Speaker 1: his boat and he's not leaving, and they call him
Speaker 1: Lieutenant Dan by the way, which is what so they're interviewed.
Speaker 1: I'm like, why they call him? Then then they show
Speaker 1: he's missing a leg. I'm like, oh, okay, but the
Speaker 1: dude's like, I'm in a boat, man. If the water
Speaker 1: gets high, the boat goes up. And like, I'm sure
Speaker 1: others have explained that that's not the only consideration. But
Speaker 1: what was weird as a reporter's interviewing him, and at
Speaker 1: no point the reporter go, yeah, you know what, if
Speaker 1: it's one hundred and twenty mile an hour winds, doesn't
Speaker 1: really matter. So I have this big story about how
Speaker 1: he's going to ride it out, and nobody can convince
Speaker 1: him otherwise. So I mean, that's an absolute tragedy if
Speaker 1: that's the case. So but yeah, the one hundred or
Speaker 1: the one hundred and sixty mile per hours, which currently
Speaker 1: is what Milton had, I guess that says of what
Speaker 1: two hours ago? Yeah, the expected landfall just south of Sarasota,
Speaker 1: so pretty much where Ray and I were talking about yesterday,
Speaker 1: kind of by Bradenton down there, if you know the
Speaker 1: Tampa area, that's where they have that high bridge and
Speaker 1: that's where the Florida National Guards dug in there at
Speaker 1: the trop Man because the baseball stadiums all the way
Speaker 1: down there. So this thing is gonna get nasty. And
Speaker 1: everyone I know in Tampa that I that I talked to,
Speaker 1: they're all gone, man, they're absolutely out of there. So
Speaker 1: we'll get into well, I didn't talk to Randy, So
Speaker 1: Randy's gonna ride that out at the iHeart Studios or not.
Speaker 1: iHeart she works, she was iHeart still, she's retired. That's
Speaker 1: what it was. Where does she live? Do you know
Speaker 1: in the Tampa area? What I mean? Cause there's clear
Speaker 1: water right, there's beach side and then there's you know,
Speaker 1: you get all you go, you're in the swamp pretty
Speaker 1: quick when you get on oother side of Tampa there.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be there. You know who else is sticking
Speaker 1: is doctor Campbell. I talked to him yesterday. Uh, doctor
Speaker 1: Kevin Campbell. For those who listened to the show for
Speaker 1: a while, he decided he went down to Florida. And
Speaker 1: who decided he was going to doctor down there? Apparently
Speaker 1: there's a lot of old people. I don't know. The
Speaker 1: Heart doctor is probably good business. He's he's not in Tampa.
Speaker 1: But he's basically in the path and he asked if
Speaker 1: he asked if tomorrow morning he can call in. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, can you? I don't know, dude, So
Speaker 1: we may get a first hand report from him. He's
Speaker 1: on the other side of the state. I just want
Speaker 1: to be clear, but still within the path where this
Speaker 1: thing's moving. What it looks like when it gets to him,
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I don't know that I'd stick around,
Speaker 1: all right, So Randy's riding it out in Campbell but
Speaker 1: not in the Tampa area. Well, look, if you've friends
Speaker 1: or relatives or anyone down there, man, when the mayor's
Speaker 1: out there saying if you stay, you die. And don't
Speaker 1: get me wrong, it's like, because I see people going, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, it's a chicken little it's the COVID stuff
Speaker 1: all over again. And yeah, and this is about squandering credibility,
Speaker 1: which we've talked about on this show a lot. Right,
Speaker 1: when you have public officials going up there like a
Speaker 1: game of Thrones, warning and going it will be the
Speaker 1: winter of your death, right, remember that? How weird that
Speaker 1: was when you had that level of apps just absolute
Speaker 1: exaggeration to things as people's experience showed them. It becomes
Speaker 1: harder for public officials to sit there and say things
Speaker 1: like that and for people to take you here. As
Speaker 1: crazy as that sounds, but you shouldn't need a public
Speaker 1: official to look at the map and the pictures from
Speaker 1: the ISS and space that you guys happen to see
Speaker 1: those pictures yesterday to know that you probably shouldn't be there,
Speaker 1: or at the very least you shouldn't be if you're
Speaker 1: over on the beach side of Tampa, or really anywhere
Speaker 1: near the bay for that matter. So anyway, we'll see
Speaker 1: how that plays out. In fact, hold on, I actually
Speaker 1: have a where is that? This was the other warning
Speaker 1: they cave yesterday. Listen to this.
Speaker 8: In Hillsborough County, the evacuation order is mandatory in some places.
Speaker 8: That means authorities cannot force people from their homes.
Speaker 1: But if you remain there, you could die. My men
Speaker 1: and women could die trying to rescue you.
Speaker 8: For those in the mandatory evacuation zones who decide to
Speaker 8: stay put, Florida officials have a dire warning.
Speaker 1: You probably need to write your name and permanent marker
Speaker 1: on your arm so that people know who you are
Speaker 1: when they get to you afterwards, or you could write
Speaker 1: somebody else's to mess with them, but or you could leave.
Speaker 1: Maybe you should pick the third one. But yeah, they're
Speaker 1: not you know, and they say stuff like that, and
Speaker 1: people are going to question it. The news will tell
Speaker 1: you they're question it because of people like me, right, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, with sharing any of the stuff from the
Speaker 1: North Carolina mountains. But you did. Some people are just
Speaker 1: not gonna listen, right. This is evidenced in every one
Speaker 1: of these situations. Some people sitting there and they've decided
Speaker 1: that it's more important to be able to I don't know,
Speaker 1: try to mitigate damage or stop looters or whatever the
Speaker 1: logic is, over their own personal safety because they sit
Speaker 1: there and go, this is all I got and it's
Speaker 1: a sad situation. But you can't discount the level of
Speaker 1: increased distrust as it pertains to one weather events or
Speaker 1: anything climate related. After you've been telling people every moment
Speaker 1: of my life, literally every moment I've been alive, let's
Speaker 1: see here, all right, eight eight eight nine three four
Speaker 1: seven eight seven four. I got to deal with this first.
Speaker 1: You said, there's a drunk man on the phone, All right,
Speaker 1: hold on, hello, Hello, sir.
Speaker 9: Hello, Jamela wants you to know it. Don't be happy
Speaker 9: if come your.
Speaker 1: Way, don't you No, no, yeah, yeah, for people don't
Speaker 1: know when I first brought that story up. I'm looking
Speaker 1: at my email and Boston Paul is offended. She's drinking
Speaker 1: a beer on Coldbert.
Speaker 9: Well, you know, you think she would have kept.
Speaker 1: It, possibly throw stones in the glassiest of houses, go
Speaker 1: right ahead, you think.
Speaker 9: She would have kept it, you know, real political and
Speaker 9: just went with the butt right, you know, but you
Speaker 9: know they went with a Mella highlights. But anyway, yeah, yeah, see.
Speaker 1: What it was.
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah.
Speaker 9: My nephew is Saint Pete and he and his family
Speaker 9: black bags and they got a airbnb over Boca. I
Speaker 9: would suggest you get that psychology if you're there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I hear you watching watch the interviews
Speaker 1: with a with an amputee in a small boat that
Speaker 1: looks like it's held together with duct tape. You know
Speaker 1: what's coming. By the way, quick question, while I have
Speaker 1: you and you're reasonably sober, explain to me why uh
Speaker 1: what the hell is wrong with your your team there? Bro,
Speaker 1: what your Pepper's been doing? What's your yes?
Speaker 9: Listen, listen, it's gonna take if they win five or
Speaker 9: six games this year.
Speaker 1: I'll be ignoring that part. Huh, you're the bar where
Speaker 1: Safety was arrested for assault, strangulation, and drug charges.
Speaker 9: Don't running man be happy all right.
Speaker 2: For you?
Speaker 1: Well? All right, I got it. I can't no more. Goodbye. Well,
Speaker 1: the screener was labeled accurately. I guess I didn't want
Speaker 1: to talk about the jabrill jabrill pepper although you know,
Speaker 1: look innocent until proven guilty. And he says one of
Speaker 1: the Patriots players basically is accused of beating up his girl.
Speaker 1: But uh he says it was her who threw herself
Speaker 1: down the stairs or fell down the stairs or something
Speaker 1: because she was drunk, because he wouldn't do something adult
Speaker 1: with her. So I don't know, but you know that's
Speaker 1: that's his side. Since I'm gonna put the story out there,
Speaker 1: all right, let me uh let me flip over to
Speaker 1: this to you a little little sidetracked there, all right?
Speaker 1: So uh well, you know, since we're already in the
Speaker 1: gutter there, maybe I'll just throw these two stories together.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: Is this what we're going to get? This slow drip
Speaker 1: of these uh diddy stories? Man? Because every time I
Speaker 1: see one of these, they creep me out more than
Speaker 1: the previous one. So if you don't know, the newest
Speaker 1: story on the the Sean Diddy Combs freak Offs still
Speaker 1: so weird, is that I remember they had like a thousand,
Speaker 1: a thousand, this is the description from the prosecute, A
Speaker 1: thousand bottles of lubricant and baby oil. But you went
Speaker 1: to Costco and you got a little crazy kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: So apparently, according to the latest allegations, it wasn't just
Speaker 1: baby oil or lubricant, but rather it was dosed and
Speaker 1: they would rub and I don't mean use it just
Speaker 1: in that area. I mean that they would cover them
Speaker 1: up so they're all shiny, oily and the whole time
Speaker 1: when they're rubbing them down inside of the of the
Speaker 1: baby oil. I guess in that case is rhypnal, the
Speaker 1: date rape drug. That's the allegation you have. What is this?
Speaker 1: Let's see. Ariel Mitchell Kid is a lawyer for the accuser.
Speaker 1: She said that, let's see, Yeah, she had been covered
Speaker 1: in lubricant that was mixed with date rapro hypnol and
Speaker 1: then visually viciously assaulted by three individuals, including Ditty. His
Speaker 1: bodyguard and then a third friend is what it says, dude,
Speaker 1: we got to get names. Can you you know would
Speaker 1: be the greatest day is if on the very same
Speaker 1: day the ditty, the Didty List and the Epstein list
Speaker 1: came out. Can you imagine the reckoning that would be
Speaker 1: out there if we have appetite for it? Of course,
Speaker 1: because I've noticed a lot of the me two people
Speaker 1: are really silent with the absolute treasure trove of Doug
Speaker 1: Emhoff stuff. Kamala's husband basically, he is exactly it's put
Speaker 1: Boston Paul in a home man, send me emails. He
Speaker 1: is exactly the caricature that they you know, that they
Speaker 1: called up and this took place in la you know,
Speaker 1: basically rich powerful men and you know, in their positions
Speaker 1: of power and requiring you know, hot female subordinates to
Speaker 1: flirt with or perhaps even more and if they didn't
Speaker 1: it would cost them their job. Right, It's the whole
Speaker 1: power imbalance, right, We heard that a whole bunch like
Speaker 1: it's the cookie cutter caricature. And there's a lot there
Speaker 1: except most of the reportings being done by the Daily Mail.
Speaker 1: So a British publication is the only one who seems
Speaker 1: to really care about this. Do you know what the
Speaker 1: Washington Post was reporting on today? I guess technically yesterday,
Speaker 1: but I'm telling you about today. Oh oh yeah, no,
Speaker 1: the Washington Washington Post, they decided that they had to
Speaker 1: go run a story. So this is not at all
Speaker 1: a distraction. The Washington Post is saying that Trump, because
Speaker 1: of course you knew it was gonna be Trump, Trump
Speaker 1: influenced and controlled the Brett Kavana investigation. Good, yeah, we're
Speaker 1: going back to that. We're going back to the you know,
Speaker 1: the magical letter that came out of Diane Feinstein's pocket. Oh,
Speaker 1: I had this so I didn't want to have to
Speaker 1: use it before we tumbled into rape conga lines and
Speaker 1: I can't remember the term for drinking too much beer
Speaker 1: and throwing up, but like all of these things that
Speaker 1: just you didn't expect to see in a Supreme Court
Speaker 1: nomination hearing, and then they got crazier and crazier, and
Speaker 1: piles of women coming out, and a lawyer, a crooked
Speaker 1: lawyer who is now in jail for attempting to extort
Speaker 1: Nike and others, was on CNN like one hundred and
Speaker 1: thirty times, mostly with Brian Stelter, who was telling him
Speaker 1: he should be president. The absolute lunacy of the whole era.
Speaker 1: Would you would think they'd have egg on their face,
Speaker 1: But no, The Washington Post decided we're going to rehash that,
Speaker 1: and basically it's the allegation is one that was already
Speaker 1: out there, Basically that Trump hurried the investigation. Well wasn't
Speaker 1: just Trump?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: Remember they negotiated this literally in the committee because what
Speaker 1: the Democrats wanted initially, they wanted them to withdraw the nomination,
Speaker 1: right they and they're just like, we can't believe that
Speaker 1: these allegations are out here. You didn't immediately withdraw him? Well, no,
Speaker 1: why would? Why would? Why didn't you bring this up
Speaker 1: initially too, By the way, only after he thought it
Speaker 1: was going, well do you do, you bring it up?
Speaker 1: And then they thought, well, if they did an investigation,
Speaker 1: that would require them to withdraw because it would take
Speaker 1: so long. Well, they said, no, we're not going to
Speaker 1: do that because then you pull this stunt every damn time.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna do it. We've already done an investigation,
Speaker 1: but we will wait. Remember they waited a certain number
Speaker 1: of days went around, and they said, look, most of
Speaker 1: the stuff we cover there's not there there, But you're
Speaker 1: not going to hold up an entire process on an allegation,
Speaker 1: many of which are provably not true. Others are just
Speaker 1: kind of he said. She said, but also her friend
Speaker 1: is agreeing with him. She never saw them together, but
Speaker 1: the whole thing was insane. This is what the Washington
Speaker 1: Post is running pieces about. Let me grab that. We
Speaker 1: got some more audio going to get into two and
Speaker 1: much more to come CaCO Day Radio program. Hang on,
Speaker 1: do you want to hear ego?
Speaker 2: Man?
Speaker 1: I was going to share this yesterday I did and
Speaker 1: get around to it. All right, you're ready Juicymolier, Jesse Smolett,
Speaker 1: But obviously Chappelle's name is far funnier, so we'll go
Speaker 1: with that. So he you know, he's in OJ mode
Speaker 1: right now. I don't know. You probably have seen some
Speaker 1: of this, right, Oh well, we're gonna find who really
Speaker 1: did this. And uh, there's a report that came out
Speaker 1: saying that he has essentially spent all of his millions
Speaker 1: three million just on appealing his conviction. Okay, I look,
Speaker 1: I understand you don't want the felony on your record
Speaker 1: all of that, but it's twofold. He is appealing his conviction,
Speaker 1: but also he is adamant that it is the first
Speaker 1: step to figuring out what really happened, and it's it's
Speaker 1: clear you probably weren't gonna work, although you may in
Speaker 1: the future, but you weren't going to work at Empire anymore.
Speaker 1: I don't know that show's not even on the air,
Speaker 1: is it not anymore? I don't think it is, and
Speaker 1: probably weren't going to see a lot of top tier
Speaker 1: opportunities come your way, but maybe down the road. You
Speaker 1: got to sit back there, dude, I know that you
Speaker 1: got this conviction, but you're not gonna like so for
Speaker 1: you then to squander your money has to absolutely be
Speaker 1: about ego, absolutely, because he is he is adamant that
Speaker 1: it happened, even though he paid for it with a check,
Speaker 1: because people go, how could you be sure? You don't know?
Speaker 1: And you're right, I don't know exactly what happened, but
Speaker 1: I know the thing immediately didn't sound right, And there's
Speaker 1: pictures of the of the two buying, you know, literally
Speaker 1: the things used. There's the check. The check thing will
Speaker 1: blow my mind forever, like who pays for their own
Speaker 1: assault with a check? But I digress. So as you know,
Speaker 1: as they're going through through all of this and you
Speaker 1: see it all that, So in my mind I have
Speaker 1: a stronger suspicion that he is the one who did
Speaker 1: it than not. But like that doesn't sit well with
Speaker 1: this dude. So he's willing to squander what he could
Speaker 1: have lived the rest of his life on responsibly. He
Speaker 1: could have lived off the interest. I don't know how
Speaker 1: much he has exactly, but three million spent there, probably
Speaker 1: spend a million or more before he had four or
Speaker 1: five million maybe more to put that in the bank,
Speaker 1: Go do your thing, live on an island somewhere. But
Speaker 1: he can't, like his ego won't let him. And you
Speaker 1: know some of that was the OJ stuff, the OJ stuff,
Speaker 1: which is crazy. Ooh, I'm gonna all right, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: write a book called If I Did It and explain
Speaker 1: how I would do it, like the audacity of that
Speaker 1: back in the day. But this dude's poor. In every
Speaker 1: penny he had, he's going to be broke and still
Speaker 1: a felon over read because remember what they believe the
Speaker 1: motivation was with Smolette was he didn't feel that he
Speaker 1: was he was being taken. He thought he was being
Speaker 1: taken advantage of by the producer's vampire with what they
Speaker 1: paid him, and he wanted more money. And I guess
Speaker 1: he concocted in his mind if he became the symbol
Speaker 1: of this hate crime, it would raise his profile and
Speaker 1: that would eventually lead to more money. Well, you bet wrong, man,
Speaker 1: it did raise your profile. You got that part right.
Speaker 1: It's like it's like you made a genie wish and
Speaker 1: didn't word it correctly, and now you're gonna throw all
Speaker 1: your money away. Just was trying to go at it.
Speaker 1: I've seen this. I've seen this in the entertainment industry before.
Speaker 1: I know a radio I have a friend of mine
Speaker 1: as a radio host who sued another radio host and
Speaker 1: they sued each other, and they spent seven figures seven
Speaker 1: figures suing each other back and forth. It's just it's
Speaker 1: it's wild. If you probably know who it is, I'm
Speaker 1: not going to get into it here, but and I'm like,
Speaker 1: why are you why why are you doing this? Why
Speaker 1: why spend all of this? But in what happened, nothing nothing,
Speaker 1: just lawsuit city, nothing, there's money down the drain man,
Speaker 1: And I you know, good on the lawyers for figuring
Speaker 1: out I guess we're they're good in this case that
Speaker 1: Juicy Smoley Hash has a bank roll man basically putting
Speaker 1: together some sort of package, obviously to try to mitigate
Speaker 1: and help the folks who were damaged out there in
Speaker 1: western North Carolina. Sorry, I just I had reload this
Speaker 1: story because I'm dumb and I want to make sure
Speaker 1: I had the correct updated one. Okay, So yeah, lawmakers
Speaker 1: say they're ready to okay a package. It'll be two
Speaker 1: hundred seventy three million in disaster relief. I don't think
Speaker 1: that'll be all of it, obviously, and then you have
Speaker 1: the federal portion, and that's kind of in line with
Speaker 1: what we've seen with other hurricanes, if maybe a little
Speaker 1: lower on the state side. But again, I don't know
Speaker 1: that it's the totality of it. Going back like Matthew.
Speaker 1: With Matthew, I think the state spent slightly more, and
Speaker 1: I wonder if the damages from Matthew are like I
Speaker 1: feel like this has to be worse, right, But I
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm speculating here. I don't know, and you
Speaker 1: know it'll take a long time, but let's see here,
Speaker 1: Senator Kevin Corbin. Of course, Aril's got that dude, because
Speaker 1: he was out scolding people for sharing videos, has seen
Speaker 1: the devastation all too close. He represents the eight westernmost
Speaker 1: counties in the state. Four have extensive and widespread damage.
Speaker 1: Hey would and others. I know you know that. But
Speaker 1: he said that even though the outpoint of help and
Speaker 1: donations from across the state has been overwhelming and helpful,
Speaker 1: it was time that the General Assembly did something. House
Speaker 1: Speaker More said, the disasters pale in comparison to what
Speaker 1: happened in western North Caroline. Okay, so good. That's that's
Speaker 1: what I needed to hear. I want to hear one
Speaker 1: of these lawmakers realizing that the Saint Matthew. I don't
Speaker 1: get me wrong, some of you listening, we're absolutely devastated
Speaker 1: by Matthew. It was in said to drive a forty
Speaker 1: like you're going down to Wilmington, and then about what Wallace,
Speaker 1: there's a lake, there's remember all the dead fish on
Speaker 1: the road. Newburn? It was Have you been to Newburn
Speaker 1: since Matthew? You haven't, and you've been before. You should
Speaker 1: looks a little different, but just the sheer size of
Speaker 1: this storm. So I expect this will be an opening volley.
Speaker 1: My question please, this is all I ask. Do not
Speaker 1: stuff any moon back stuff into this. Do not stuff
Speaker 1: anything in here that doesn't have to do with this.
Speaker 1: And I haven't seen any indication that they are, but
Speaker 1: I'm telling you it's why it's among one of the
Speaker 1: slimiest things that we see out there. If you guys
Speaker 1: try to turn this into it. This isn't just me
Speaker 1: yelling at the Republicans in charge, and I understand they
Speaker 1: have veto proof majority, and also it's going to be
Speaker 1: hard for Cooper to veto stuff that's storm made. That
Speaker 1: being said, don't try to muck this up any of
Speaker 1: you on any side to do what you gotta do.
Speaker 1: You can fight about the other stuff later. Okay, here's
Speaker 1: this is why I wanted this other story, all right,
Speaker 1: So more estimates the total damage could be over ten
Speaker 1: billion dollars, which would absolutely eclipse any any natural disaster
Speaker 1: that North Carolina has faced and had to recover financially from,
Speaker 1: even when in weighted dollars. Makers are expected to let's
Speaker 1: see October twenty fourth. No, now that's their other one
Speaker 1: that's scheduled out. When are they gonna when are they
Speaker 1: actually gonna vote on this? Pretty quick? I guess all right,
Speaker 1: So that and then they have a special one day
Speaker 1: session that they had already structured for the twenty fourth
Speaker 1: of October. So if they need to take up any
Speaker 1: other issues disaster response, additional funding needed, they'll do another
Speaker 1: bite at the apple. Okay, So they'll do this one
Speaker 1: pretty quick, probably this week, and then on the twenty
Speaker 1: fourth if they need to do more, and by then
Speaker 1: we should start to have some semblance of an idea
Speaker 1: of what actual costs are in many of these communities.
Speaker 1: The state also, and this is a good thing, even
Speaker 1: though I'm told it's not, the state has significant reserves
Speaker 1: North Carolina, which I remember when I moved here thirteen
Speaker 1: years ago. Whatever Bev Purdue was taking teacher pay raises
Speaker 1: away and furloughing employees. We were we were in a
Speaker 1: bad place. But now the state of North Carolina, if
Speaker 1: you include all the reserve funds, is sitting on roughly
Speaker 1: three billion dollars, which is a low tax is gone.
Speaker 1: I don't know that I always like, but here you go,
Speaker 1: this is this is, this is what this is for.
Speaker 1: Let's see. They also have seven hundred and thirty three
Speaker 1: million in an emergency response and disaster reserve account the
Speaker 1: state's rainy Day Fund four point seven five billions. So
Speaker 1: that's not moneies that are allocated for flexible things necessarily,
Speaker 1: but moneies they're sitting on. So yeah, you guys, you
Speaker 1: guys have a you got a bunch of our money.
Speaker 2: So this.
Speaker 1: I just speak for me. Go ahead and use it.
Speaker 1: So yeah, go ahead and use it. So we'll report
Speaker 1: on that obviously as as an unfold. All right, So
Speaker 1: I played some audio and if you're just joining us,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play it again because I want to make
Speaker 1: I said something that was inaccurate and I want to
Speaker 1: make sure that I say it accurately. I was sharing
Speaker 1: with you this little snippet of a radio interview that
Speaker 1: was done by the Chimney Rock Mayor pro tem. I
Speaker 1: said mayor. It's mayor pro tem, but you know, local
Speaker 1: government official, elected official in Chimney Rock doing an interview
Speaker 1: and there's this a really weird exchange that happens, and
Speaker 1: it's hard. It's hard for me to judge because on
Speaker 1: this show we joke about a lot of stuff, and
Speaker 1: so it's pretty serious stuff. And it absolutely is a
Speaker 1: way to we use humor. One is a way to
Speaker 1: deal with some of this stuff. But two, I think
Speaker 1: people when they're approaching, especially information within a tragedy, that
Speaker 1: is how a lot of people deal with it. So
Speaker 1: they may gravitate towards that. But also, if people listen,
Speaker 1: I've had this conversation a thousand times. People go, all right,
Speaker 1: you should just talk about politics. Well, no, we are.
Speaker 1: We have a much broader audience than other, you know,
Speaker 1: typical talk radio, right wing talk radio shows. So if
Speaker 1: people are listening and they are having fun with us,
Speaker 1: well we have to talk about more serious stuff, maybe
Speaker 1: they're there to listen to it. I think that that's
Speaker 1: an advantage this though, this just kind of it. It's
Speaker 1: just a creepy thing to make a joke about, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play it for you, but maybe I'm maybe
Speaker 1: I'm the one overreacting. You can go ahead and let
Speaker 1: me know. So here is the Mayor pro tem of
Speaker 1: Chimney Rock chatting with a talk host down in South Carolina.
Speaker 1: I mean, the other thing was that you guys have
Speaker 1: bodies all over the place.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, there's one laying right by me right No.
Speaker 1: Now, now she it's now. When he asked that question,
Speaker 1: he's asking it in an in an illustrioive way. Right,
Speaker 1: there's it's not sar Kata know how to describe it,
Speaker 1: like he's asking that question. He doesn't necessarily mean that,
Speaker 1: but he's he's speaking to the urgency of what's going
Speaker 1: on there. I don't know that i'd have worded it
Speaker 1: like that, but who knows, maybe I would so, But
Speaker 1: she's the one who then cracks the joke. But then
Speaker 1: he laughs. I'm just saying, ugh, But I don't know
Speaker 1: if that was a nervous laugh on his end, going
Speaker 1: oh my god, did you just say that. I mean
Speaker 1: the other thing was that you guys have bodies all
Speaker 1: over the place.
Speaker 6: Oh, yeah, there's one laying right by me, right. No,
Speaker 6: we had one fatality in this area, right, and it
Speaker 6: was something that someone chose to stay in her home.
Speaker 6: She was an elderly, invalid woman that was not She
Speaker 6: did not want to leave. The firefighters offered to carry
Speaker 6: her out, neighbors tried to get her out, and she
Speaker 6: said absolutely not. And her house was taken away by
Speaker 6: the flood with her in it. So that was our
Speaker 6: one and only fatality, that's it. Yeah, and it was
Speaker 6: of her choice. So there are other fatalities in North Carolina,
Speaker 6: but not here.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, and and then there's a little more
Speaker 1: to do here.
Speaker 5: That's so, that's so inappropriate for a government official to
Speaker 5: even be making that joke. If we were going to
Speaker 5: make that joke in the show, we'd be fired. Well,
Speaker 5: that's such an inappropriate joke to be in that position.
Speaker 1: What's what's crazy to me is she had this information,
Speaker 1: like I didn't know the narrative of the person who
Speaker 1: died in Chimney Rock, right, I just saw. I just
Speaker 1: got a list. Here's all the plate, here's all the
Speaker 1: counties where the deaths where, Here's how many that we
Speaker 1: know of. But she knows this sad story. What a
Speaker 1: sad story, this elderly woman. It doesn't sound like she's
Speaker 1: got family people around her, even though you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: the firefighters came out. There was only so much you
Speaker 1: can do. And she's it's like, this elderly, lonely woman
Speaker 1: just said, no, I'm gonna I died alone. That's that's
Speaker 1: an incredibly sad story. So when you know that, when
Speaker 1: you know that and you're going to be delivering it
Speaker 1: to this dude, don't open with a joke, even if
Speaker 1: he gives you an opening.
Speaker 5: Even the opening he gave her, though, I mean, it's
Speaker 5: an honest question because you're hearing these stories come out
Speaker 5: of there, right. We know we know for like, Marky
Speaker 5: knows somebody firsthand who had over in western North Carolina.
Speaker 5: I can't remember that where specifically it was, but she
Speaker 5: was telling me yesterday that she had bodies in her backyard. Yeah,
Speaker 5: and like, and they're finding them in trees and the like,
Speaker 5: you know, and creeks and stuff, and it's just like,
Speaker 5: this is something that's really happening there for you to
Speaker 5: be a government like an elected government official representing the
Speaker 5: people and making a joke about it. I mean, like
Speaker 5: you say, we make a lot of jokes on the show.
Speaker 5: Do you have any jokes on this topic we've made,
Speaker 5: like on the topic of western North Carolina.
Speaker 1: I dude, let me go to the let me go
Speaker 1: to the tally board.
Speaker 5: Oh, it looks like none, right, because it's inappropriate, and
Speaker 5: we know we would get not only but I wouldn't
Speaker 5: make them.
Speaker 1: Listen.
Speaker 5: I had people during when this was happening, right when
Speaker 5: we were off last week, sending me a boone big
Speaker 5: beer memes. Right, I didn't think they were funny. I'm
Speaker 5: not posting them. I had people. I didn't mention it,
Speaker 5: you know, because it's inappropriate. It's not you you can
Speaker 5: say it's because we've been in this had this job
Speaker 5: in this industry for a while. It has nothing to
Speaker 5: do with this job. It has to be with being
Speaker 5: a person who grows up, who is a human being, who,
Speaker 5: once you're a human being, you understand that that there's
Speaker 5: a certain there's a time and a place for things,
Speaker 5: and that is inappropriate. That person cannot And I guess
Speaker 5: what I'm reading about this mayor pro tem is she's
Speaker 5: a she's a transplant, right, she's not from the area.
Speaker 1: No, that didn't Yeah, I guess she came out hearing.
Speaker 5: I just that is crazy to me. And when it
Speaker 5: comes to the host laughing, that could be nervous laughter.
Speaker 5: I don't know, Yeah, because I was born on this yea,
Speaker 5: if I want to attack some guy, uh, if that's
Speaker 5: how he deals with it.
Speaker 1: But he sounds like a very competent host his deliveries,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like he sounds he sounds
Speaker 1: like a guy who hosts a talk show and that
Speaker 1: has probably done it for a while. So I don't
Speaker 1: know but he didn't make the joke. He just it's
Speaker 1: the way he responded to it's it's the story is
Speaker 1: about her, and it is baffling to me that that's
Speaker 1: the direction that you chose to go. But also that's
Speaker 1: why I throughout the conversation. Maybe it's the gallowed humor thing.
Speaker 1: It's how some people deal with it. I mean, knowing
Speaker 1: having knowledge of that story, what happened to this woman,
Speaker 1: this poor woman, Like that's a that's a heavy thing
Speaker 1: to carry around, especially if you're an elected official there,
Speaker 1: especially if you know for a fact the fire went
Speaker 1: over and negotiated with her and try to get her
Speaker 1: out of there. And where's the family in this? Does
Speaker 1: she have family? Maybe she doesn't have family.
Speaker 5: There's a reason people say too soon, right, and this
Speaker 5: is the reason, like too soon for that joke.
Speaker 1: Sorry? Yeah, And you know every other day of the
Speaker 1: year you want to call and do the boom big
Speaker 1: beer joke and make my life miserable. Fine, but you
Speaker 1: know right now, pause, and those are the decisions you
Speaker 1: have to make. I can't tell you the amount of
Speaker 1: times I am mid sentenced and in my mind, I'm like,
Speaker 1: you know what, maybe I'm not going to go there,
Speaker 1: and it's not even necessarily like earlier when we were joking,
Speaker 1: when we were talking about WWE and stuff, and we
Speaker 1: were pointing out some of the nineties two thousands era
Speaker 1: stuff that just wouldn't fly today, Like you got to
Speaker 1: know when to say when look at that bringing a
Speaker 1: beer beer slogan there, All right, seven forty eight, let's
Speaker 1: not keep ray waiting. It's a busy weather day, Ray,
Speaker 1: what's going on?
Speaker 2: My man?
Speaker 7: Hey, good morning, Casey. Our weather really doesn't change much.
Speaker 7: We've been saying it for the last that seems like
Speaker 7: week worse more that we've really got nothing. There might
Speaker 7: be a little patchy fog this morning, otherwise, sunshine, a
Speaker 7: little bit of a down to the warm up. Low
Speaker 7: to mid seventies today, maybe closer to the upper sixties
Speaker 7: to low seventies tomorrow. A little bit breezy too tomorrow
Speaker 7: with that cooler air coming in. And then Friday, another
Speaker 7: seventy degree day before we get near eighty in some spots,
Speaker 7: especially the Triangle by the end of the weekend. The
Speaker 7: weekend is going to beautiful. We may have some lows
Speaker 7: late week in the mid number forties, and then even
Speaker 7: next week more dry weather expected late week, we may
Speaker 7: start seeing some moisture. Try to get back in here.
Speaker 7: Add for Milton, speaking of powerful category five storm right
Speaker 7: now one hundred and sixty mile per hour maximum sustained
Speaker 7: winds and some advisories up for the coast the southeast
Speaker 7: coast of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia for maybe
Speaker 7: some water rise or some limited surge and some coastal
Speaker 7: beach erosion. And so most of the issues at least
Speaker 7: for the Carolinas and southeast Georgia are likely going to
Speaker 7: be out near the Atlantic. Here inland, none of the
Speaker 7: impact is getting this far inland. So powerful storm forecasts
Speaker 7: to make landfall sometime around midnight or just thereafter now
Speaker 7: near Sarah So did the center anyway has a category
Speaker 7: for one hundred and thirty mile p hour storm at
Speaker 7: least that's the latest from the Hurricane Center.
Speaker 1: Casey, all right, all right, there you go, raised agic
Speaker 1: from the Weather Channel. We got to hit a break.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. And these are good theories. And
Speaker 1: this is why I'm bringing it to you that maybe
Speaker 1: the maybe she was annoyed at the question she was
Speaker 1: getting from the host. Was he asking about conspiratorial stuff.
Speaker 1: I will tell you this because we didn't we didn't
Speaker 1: load the whole interview. Obviously, what would The other questions
Speaker 1: did involve some some things that have been floating around
Speaker 1: that were unverified, and obviously she was asked about it.
Speaker 1: I don't know if they were big conspiracy stuff. Was
Speaker 1: what was the one immediately before? I'm sorry, I have
Speaker 1: a little transcript thing here, all right, So anyway, so
Speaker 1: this is money. Monday afternoon is when the interview happened.
Speaker 1: Just for context there and one of the questions surrounded
Speaker 1: a viral video that was circulating claiming that there was
Speaker 1: a meeting between local, state, and federal officials where decisions
Speaker 1: are being made. I don't think this is the raise
Speaker 1: the town, nobody lives her anymore video. I think it's
Speaker 1: a different one. So yeah, look, that's why this is
Speaker 1: the process though. Okay, this is what I've been wishing
Speaker 1: the media would do. Right, don't just sit there and say, oh, well,
Speaker 1: Roy Cooper said all this stuff is malarkey, Well go
Speaker 1: investigate it. Some of it probably is. That's what people
Speaker 1: do during these Most of them are easy to spot.
Speaker 1: Be quite honest with you, if you've done this for
Speaker 1: more than five minutes, but there's some out there that
Speaker 1: deserve Look the rotor wash video, right, that's not a
Speaker 1: conspiracy anymore. The North Carolina National Guard has said that
Speaker 1: that was theirs and that the crew is grounded right now,
Speaker 1: which I hate to see if we got if we
Speaker 1: have trained soldiers that are at you know, have the
Speaker 1: ability to fly helos, which is something we kind of
Speaker 1: need right now. I hate that this is the thing,
Speaker 1: but also that's a huge problem. Would happen good rock
Speaker 1: and roll? Here is the Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson, or,
Speaker 1: as the media has described him, the man missing in
Speaker 1: action because he didn't show up for a vote or something.
Speaker 1: Where have you been hiding, sir?
Speaker 2: We're hey, hey, Katie, how you doing. I've been up
Speaker 2: and spending most of my time up in west of
Speaker 2: North Carolina.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, yeah, because I made a show like you
Speaker 1: just you just disappeared, And I'm like, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I saw a video of Mark here and he was
Speaker 1: moving some stuff there and talking to some folks there,
Speaker 1: and so, uh off, I want to get into your experience,
Speaker 1: but I want to ask you a question just because
Speaker 1: I want to put this to rest, because you know,
Speaker 1: people are like, well, Mark didn't vote on this stuff.
Speaker 1: If Mark doesn't vote as part of your your obligate,
Speaker 1: your Council of State obligations, one, that's not unusual. In two,
Speaker 1: that just confirms passage. If for the other people voting, right,
Speaker 1: this is a thing that happens all the time. Because
Speaker 1: they're trying to use that to say you don't care
Speaker 1: while you're simultaneously.
Speaker 2: Up in the mountains man, right, yeah, you know, essentially
Speaker 2: a no vote was a yes vote. I mean, if
Speaker 2: the vote passed, they didn't need me. I mean, this
Speaker 2: is this is ridiculous media narrative, is what this is.
Speaker 2: These folks are out of their minds. They have highlighted
Speaker 2: the fact that I missed this vote that didn't count.
Speaker 2: But they when I was up in western North Carolina
Speaker 2: Saturday evening, Sunday, Sunday, all day long, traveling the places
Speaker 2: that have just been destroyed. When I was flying goods
Speaker 2: in on Monday with civilian volunteers. When we were up
Speaker 2: there on Tuesday, I did not see one single solitary
Speaker 2: news camera following me. Isn't that bazaar? Not one single
Speaker 2: military reporter, nobody knocked on my door and asked me, hey,
Speaker 2: how was your trip up the west of North Carolina?
Speaker 2: What was going on? They were knocking all my door
Speaker 2: out to the lines and trash from CNN, and they
Speaker 2: were asking me questions about an inconsequential vote, a vote
Speaker 2: that didn't matter, that was essentially a yes vote that
Speaker 2: still passed. But they did not ask me about the
Speaker 2: things that I've seen in the West of North Carolina.
Speaker 2: Our current news leada right now, the legacy media, it's
Speaker 2: discussing the things that they do they except with sitting
Speaker 2: their newsrooms and try to figure out ways to destroy
Speaker 2: people that they don't like instead of actually delivering the
Speaker 2: news of people. And we got to change that base.
Speaker 2: And I think the way we do is by turning
Speaker 2: to television off well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but never the radio, just to be clear. So
Speaker 1: with that in mind, you are venting one of my frustrations.
Speaker 1: And I want to turn this over to what you've
Speaker 1: seen here in a moment. But one of the biggest
Speaker 1: frustrations that I and a lot of other people have
Speaker 1: is we're seen. You know, it's a fire hose, you
Speaker 1: just of information and video and people saying this is
Speaker 1: my experience. You know, I tried to get help and
Speaker 1: it didn't work, or I did get help and look
Speaker 1: who helped me with a mule string? Right, it's it's
Speaker 1: the good, the bad, and everything in between. And there
Speaker 1: is this drum beat from a lot of politicians and
Speaker 1: the news media even saying, you know everything, unless it
Speaker 1: comes straight from us, don't you believe it? And to
Speaker 1: your point, how the hell are they supposed to know
Speaker 1: if this stuff is true? If they're not up there
Speaker 1: investigating the claims that people are making about inefficiencies or
Speaker 1: ways to do better, or really any of it. Because
Speaker 1: I haven't seen them on spot reporting that the national
Speaker 1: networks up there.
Speaker 2: I have not either. I've seen them follow around Velvet
Speaker 2: and Cooper every chance they get. I've seen them do
Speaker 2: the things they want to do. The news media does
Speaker 2: what it wants to do, they don't actually do reporting. Again,
Speaker 2: if this is a case of being fair and ballot,
Speaker 2: this is a case of wanting to tell the truth,
Speaker 2: a news crew would have all us up there. They
Speaker 2: will say, hey, he's taking up supplies, he's going up there,
Speaker 2: Let's go see what he's going actually going to go do.
Speaker 2: Let's go investigate to see if he actually is delivering
Speaker 2: supplies and visiting these places, it didn't happen. It's all
Speaker 2: over Twitter. It's all over Twitter comments that I made
Speaker 2: on Facebook fifteen years ago. They're glad to put that
Speaker 2: out and talk about that. But what we did last week,
Speaker 2: they don't want to talk about it, which highlights the
Speaker 2: fact they don't want to talk about the real issues
Speaker 2: in this race. Casey, I've been telling everybody everybody that
Speaker 2: can everywhere, this race here this year really buols down
Speaker 2: to the same thing that all races should boil down to.
Speaker 2: And it's one single solitary word. It's not politics, it's
Speaker 2: not personalities. It's politics, or it's a policy. Policy is
Speaker 2: what matters. Who's going to pass the policies is going
Speaker 2: to help our state and our nation to be better.
Speaker 2: That's what folks need to think about when they go
Speaker 2: to the voting polls, not these silly commercials, not the
Speaker 2: news media. They need to look at the facts of
Speaker 2: how our whether or not our government is a fish,
Speaker 2: and if it is, who got it there and who
Speaker 2: passed the policies to make that happen, And if it's not,
Speaker 2: who could path the policies to get it to that place.
Speaker 2: So I've been telling everybody that because the news media
Speaker 2: and the Democrats certainly don't want to talk about that issue.
Speaker 1: Let me let's let's let's talk about the folks out
Speaker 1: in the mountains. And just to be clear, because I
Speaker 1: can already see this coming, this is Mark's regularly scheduled interview, right,
Speaker 1: So he didn't come on and go, hey, can I
Speaker 1: come over and talk about because I was up there
Speaker 1: and he didn't even know. I didn't tell him I
Speaker 1: was going to askhim or anything, because I can already
Speaker 1: sniff this out. But here's the question. I do want
Speaker 1: to ask you, what, in your time up there talking
Speaker 1: to folks help and you've been all over what is
Speaker 1: the most horrific thing that you've seen that people need
Speaker 1: to know so that they can prepare themselves for some
Speaker 1: of these stories we still don't know about yet. And
Speaker 1: what is the most hopeful thing that you've seen in
Speaker 1: this last.
Speaker 2: Week's market, The most distressing thing, the most heartbreaking thing,
Speaker 2: the most worrisome thing. Right now, it's the amount of
Speaker 2: people who are missing. We've met people who have family
Speaker 2: members who are missing. That one gentleman in particular, I
Speaker 2: met his family is I think his brother and sister
Speaker 2: in law were in a trailer in a campground. They
Speaker 2: were washed away. They found the trailer, but they have
Speaker 2: not found them. And that's the story that we heard
Speaker 2: repeated over and over again of the missing. And we
Speaker 2: are praying vehemently that these people are found and that
Speaker 2: the death toll won't be as devastating as some think
Speaker 2: it may be. But the loss of life, certainly, certainly
Speaker 2: is the most distressing thing that we heard. The loss
Speaker 2: of property. I mean, my goodness, some of those landscapes
Speaker 2: up there, they're unrecognizable, places like Swannanoah and the old
Speaker 2: Fort U and other places on up higher in the
Speaker 2: higher country. I mean these places there, they're unrecognizable. I
Speaker 2: forty where it washed away. I mean, the incredible power
Speaker 2: that water to wash that highway way the way it did.
Speaker 2: That's going to be a while before it's fixed. But
Speaker 2: I can tell what the hand down is. The best
Speaker 2: thing that we saw. The best thing that we saw
Speaker 2: was the Appalachian spirit up there, that volunteer spirit, those folks,
Speaker 2: neighbors coming together to help neighbors. Is a lot of
Speaker 2: folks up there that would not be making it through
Speaker 2: this right now if it was not for the volunteers
Speaker 2: and not just the volunteers that live up there, but
Speaker 2: also volunteers that have come from every state of communities
Speaker 2: all around this state. Things have been donated case everything
Speaker 2: from helicopter helicopters and few to shoes and socks. Folks
Speaker 2: are are given. They're giving up their time, they're giving
Speaker 2: them their money, they're giving them their resources, and they're
Speaker 2: making things happen up there for their neighbors. And that's
Speaker 2: the best thing that I think that I saw the
Speaker 2: entire time that I was up there.
Speaker 1: I got about a minute. Looks like they're going to
Speaker 1: put a package out. It's not being billed as the
Speaker 1: end all be all. There may be more. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be about what two hundred and seventy dollars. Luckily, the
Speaker 1: state of North Carolina is sitting pretty flow us on
Speaker 1: some of the reserve accounts in your that's not going
Speaker 1: to be enough, right from what you've seen, I'm assuming, well, I've.
Speaker 2: Already had that conversation with some leadership, and of course
Speaker 2: you know, this is just a preliminary amount of money.
Speaker 2: The longer term fix is going to require longer, longer
Speaker 2: term strategy for spending. So we have to sit down
Speaker 2: and look at what the longer term needs are and
Speaker 2: target the places and prioritize and all those good things.
Speaker 2: And so there will be more coming. But this is
Speaker 2: just a preliminary amount that's coming out for some immediate
Speaker 2: fixes that we need right at this moment.
Speaker 1: Okay, and obviously there's gonna be the revenue laws from
Speaker 1: fall leaf season Tourism's it'll be a long time before
Speaker 1: we know. Mark. I'll let you get to it. I
Speaker 1: know you got to form your head of two, but
Speaker 1: I appreciate you a few minutes this morning.
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you, We appreciate that. Thank you. Trason, good
Speaker 2: talk to you. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So look at that. We were able to locate the
Speaker 1: Lieutenant governor, apparently the only folks in the media who could.
Speaker 1: So we're good Ross found him. He's like a Carmen
Speaker 1: San Diego enthusiast. Anyway, eight twenty three, we'll take a break,
Speaker 1: be right back. Some of these stories we're going to
Speaker 1: talk about. First this Maryland State Police have agreed to
Speaker 1: a three million dollar payout to black female applicants who
Speaker 1: failed the basic tests. So you know they got a
Speaker 1: basic test. You want to apply to the state police.
Speaker 1: Here's how you do it take this test, and you
Speaker 1: got to meet this number. And you know it's all
Speaker 1: disclosed everything. They were told there is a test. They
Speaker 1: were told in detail what would be on the test,
Speaker 1: and they decided, Well, the reason I failed, obviously is
Speaker 1: racism and sexism. And I can't disagree with them because
Speaker 1: state officials just agreed by paying them for this insanity.
Speaker 1: By the way, you think you could pass the test? Ross,
Speaker 1: You think you could pass the Maryland State Police test
Speaker 1: enough so you could become a Maryland State Police officer.
Speaker 1: I'm not so sure. And let me do that. I'll
Speaker 1: give it. I'll give it a shot, all right. I
Speaker 1: got a handful of questions here. Let's go ahead and
Speaker 1: dive into this. All right, spell the word knives, O
Speaker 1: k N I vees knives. Look at that. You're you're
Speaker 1: on your way? Oh really? I thought it? Okay? All right,
Speaker 1: hold on, all right, So, in preparing to report on
Speaker 1: a home burglary, an officer list four items stolen. These
Speaker 1: are their values. What is the total value? You ready?
Speaker 1: Fifteen dollars for stereo, four hundred dollars for TV, one
Speaker 1: hundred dollars for a gold chain, and forty dollars for
Speaker 1: radio fifteen hundred, four hundred, one hundred and then forty
Speaker 1: loan dollars two thousanty bucks. Oh wow, you are so fast. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that is the correct answer. Look at that. You're almost
Speaker 1: a police office, policed office.
Speaker 5: I've got what it takes the next answer. No matter
Speaker 5: what the question, my answer is going to be tas them.
Speaker 1: That's he's not a question, that's not the But that's
Speaker 1: not one of the questions here. Oh it's you know,
Speaker 1: so much of this is spelling. Some of us just
Speaker 1: you gotta visually see it. But if you see it,
Speaker 1: you realize how simple all of them, all of this is.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: All right, one more and if you pass this, you're
Speaker 1: chief of Maryland State Police. Are you ready? Officer Jones?
Speaker 1: Tase him? What I haven't even told you what Officer
Speaker 1: Jones is doing? Trust he's out untrusted? Okay, well Jones.
Speaker 1: Officer Jones sounds like a good guy. Here's why. Officer
Speaker 1: Jones normally works from three to eleven PM. However, at
Speaker 1: ten fifty six or ten to fifty five PM, he
Speaker 1: got on a scene of an accident and had to
Speaker 1: remain there till one thirty, So he normally gets off
Speaker 1: at eleven, he had to remain till one thirty. How
Speaker 1: long passed his regular shift? Did Jones work two and
Speaker 1: a half hours and five you gott add the five
Speaker 1: minutes in five minutes? No tas Wait, there's no tasing
Speaker 1: in this. It's an accident, man, You're not your tasing
Speaker 1: accident victims. Now do you hear how that makes you sound?
Speaker 1: You show up on this, you show up in your
Speaker 1: squad car on the scene, You're like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: there's been a rollover, right, this woman strapped in the car.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. We should get the jaws of life.
Speaker 5: It's amazing how often we watch on Patrol Live. Yeah,
Speaker 5: might answer to any situation there in his taser.
Speaker 1: You know what. A lot of times it's the way
Speaker 1: you should get. It works out a lot of times.
Speaker 1: I'm like, look, he ran, won have been held a
Speaker 1: run if you tasted him. Yeah, that's true. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: there's videos of people that are in a dead run
Speaker 1: getting taste and then just pancatune.
Speaker 5: You can We've watched it so much now you can
Speaker 5: tell when people are gonna run. You can just tell.
Speaker 5: Like a lot of times, like so they like pull
Speaker 5: them out of the car for like a traffic thing
Speaker 5: or whatever, like, well, let's search your car.
Speaker 1: You're a little suspicious.
Speaker 5: They take them out, and like if they if they
Speaker 5: get out and they start if they bring out their
Speaker 5: phone and they're just talking on their phone the entire
Speaker 5: time and ignoring the police officer and just sort of
Speaker 5: like looking around and like.
Speaker 1: They're just gonna forget the right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Like every time they break out their phone and
Speaker 5: they do the entire I'm gonna ignore you thing, they
Speaker 5: end up taking off tase them.
Speaker 1: These are accident victims. I understand what you're saying. That's
Speaker 1: at least somebody has suspected of something. This is an
Speaker 1: accident victim who needs who needs the jaws of life,
Speaker 1: who needs extracted from a vehicle. You're gonna hit that
Speaker 1: poor woman with a taser, well, arguably she probably could
Speaker 1: have drove better. Those questions are pretty ridiculous, though, dude.
Speaker 1: And there's a bunch more. They're just really hard to
Speaker 1: do verbally, but it is. It's basically like the scene
Speaker 1: in Idiocracy where you're sticking blocks through the holes and
Speaker 1: then the dude's like covering up his blocks, like I'm
Speaker 1: sorry if you're not passing that test and you're still
Speaker 1: mad to the point where you get lawyers to go
Speaker 1: out and shake down. Look, they just settled because politics.
Speaker 1: Let's face it, you can't you can't convince me. You
Speaker 1: can't convince me that that's racist or sexist or any
Speaker 1: of that garbage. In fact, the test in and of
Speaker 1: itself had been altered, removing a good portion of the
Speaker 1: grammar section. Which that's a bad idea, right there. Man.
Speaker 1: You know, you're a police officer. You need to be
Speaker 1: able to clearly communicate with people. You need to be
Speaker 1: able to note things accurately in reports. But yeah, they
Speaker 1: so they dumbed this thing down. Anyway. According to the lawsuit,
Speaker 1: applicants were allowed to take the test four times per
Speaker 1: year and had to get a seventy percent. But if
Speaker 1: they if they fail four times straight, they have to
Speaker 1: wait a year before they take it again. And for
Speaker 1: somehow that's super racist and sexist. Oh yeah, they got
Speaker 1: three million dollars out of it, So there you go. Also, this,
Speaker 1: I said, it's a half hour of just insanity. I
Speaker 1: don't I'm trying to. I don't understand why sixty minutes
Speaker 1: does this. It's only going to cause controversy. I understand
Speaker 1: you can't run if you're doing an edited interview. Arguably
Speaker 1: you shouldn't. You should be doing a live interview with
Speaker 1: the president, you know, with somebody's running for president. So
Speaker 1: we don't wonder what was out there. We saw Trump
Speaker 1: get into it with sixty minutes. He released the whole thing.
Speaker 1: It changed the narrative that they were saying, kam la haarah,
Speaker 1: same deal, same deal. Obviously that didn't look like it
Speaker 1: went well for we played you the audio yesterday. So
Speaker 1: what do they do as part of the They then
Speaker 1: edit what they did show, so they only showed what
Speaker 1: was edited already, and they left stuff out in fact
Speaker 1: on the on their sixty minutes page, I have a
Speaker 1: section where it's the outtakes there, not outakes, but stuff
Speaker 1: that didn't make it in there. And that's selective, by
Speaker 1: the way, it's not all of it. And what was
Speaker 1: crazy is they There's a couple questions where they asked
Speaker 1: comed like who is our nemesis? Right which country? And
Speaker 1: she said I ran And she gave a seemingly coherent
Speaker 1: answer that probably aligns with Trump's opinion of Iran, although
Speaker 1: he's probably got personal beef perhaps so like like, why
Speaker 1: would you leave that out of what you aired if
Speaker 1: you weren't trying to decap this one. That's so that's
Speaker 1: its own conspiracy theory. But what I don't understand is
Speaker 1: they then altered and edited stuff they aired on TV.
Speaker 1: So you've already aired it, why would you alter it?
Speaker 1: And I'll give you an example. We played this yesterday
Speaker 1: for you. Okay, this was Kamala the net Yahoo question.
Speaker 1: All right, check this out.
Speaker 8: But it seems that Prime Minister Netanyah who is not listening.
Speaker 4: Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted
Speaker 4: in a number of movements in that region by Israel
Speaker 4: that were very much prompted by or a result of
Speaker 4: many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen.
Speaker 1: In the region. What it's it's a word salad, it's
Speaker 1: it's not coherent, and she looks nervous delivering it. But
Speaker 1: that's that's history. That's the reality. So when you're putting
Speaker 1: this stuff, you know, archived online so that people can
Speaker 1: access it, and then you change it, what am I
Speaker 1: supposed to think here, by the way, is the new edit?
Speaker 1: This is now? If you go to sixty minutes, you
Speaker 1: will see he is the version that is there available
Speaker 1: for people wanting to review it without having to dig
Speaker 1: into stuff. But on their website, this is what this
Speaker 1: is what that question now sounds like.
Speaker 8: But it seems that Prime Minister Netanyah, who is not listening, we.
Speaker 4: Are not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for
Speaker 4: the United States to be clear about where we stand
Speaker 4: on the need for this war to end.
Speaker 1: What even is that? I mean, those are not remotely
Speaker 1: the same answers, I understand. You know, with Barack Obama.
Speaker 1: When Barack Obama came into office, we had to make
Speaker 1: a decision, and I remember having this conversation. Barack Obama
Speaker 1: paused a lot a lot. Roy Cooper does it a
Speaker 1: little bit, especially when he's doing his folksy thing, but
Speaker 1: like Barack Obama would pause a lot. And so the
Speaker 1: discussion we had to have. Because I'm the one editing
Speaker 1: the audio at that point, I'm like, do I remove
Speaker 1: these just yeah.
Speaker 5: So I started here in twenty eleven, right, So Barack
Speaker 5: Obama was in office, and I remember, and this is
Speaker 5: we didn't you and I did not have a conversation
Speaker 5: about this. I remember being here before everybody else and
Speaker 5: loading Barack Obama audio and consciously having to make the
Speaker 5: decision do I cut these pauses out?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Because he would pause so much he was Glenn Beck.
Speaker 1: Glenn Beck does that too. That's a whole that's a
Speaker 1: whole industry joke. But yeah, And because pauses, even though
Speaker 1: they're not sound, are context. And you hear the pause
Speaker 1: in Kamala's voice with the original clearly what people would
Speaker 1: gather seeing the look on her face, but also hearing
Speaker 1: that pause is that she's struggling for words. She's struggling
Speaker 1: for a coherent answer to a question she should have anticipated.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, these are these are things that
Speaker 1: we decide all the time. But the biggest thing is
Speaker 1: you got to ask yourself, I take this out, does
Speaker 1: it change the context? And if it changes the context,
Speaker 1: you don't clip it. You don't change it, not if
Speaker 1: you want to be intellectually honest about things. All right,
Speaker 1: O Day radio program were going to Ray Roll. Oh man,
Speaker 1: you guys are having and I hear you have a
Speaker 1: tech stuff. I just had some tech thing.
Speaker 2: Did you.
Speaker 7: I'm it seems like a couple of spots I've had
Speaker 7: tech issues. Ours was intern at home and then FTP were.
Speaker 1: Just yeah, FTP stuff. I wonder if there's some bigger
Speaker 1: issue going on.
Speaker 7: So you had that too on your end.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, our call screener is it's a you know,
Speaker 1: a lot of this stuff is virtual networks. So like
Speaker 1: the call screener, like INSS Ross's studios, in my studio,
Speaker 1: the call screeners are on a virtual network. It's not
Speaker 1: just came right, and so when that happens, it happened.
Speaker 1: Interesting anyway. All right, man, let's let's get to the
Speaker 1: the nitty gritty here. Still awful, right, yeah, still offul
Speaker 1: And now people are like, we need a cat six.
Speaker 1: I don't want to get into that, but no, what
Speaker 1: can people expect?
Speaker 7: Well here, obviously we're gonna go with the same message.
Speaker 7: It's gonna be beautiful. Temperatures of go up and down
Speaker 7: countee eighty degrees returned by the weekend, staying dry out
Speaker 7: near the coast. Actually, we do have some watches tropical
Speaker 7: storm watches for the coastal waters of some beach erosion
Speaker 7: and water rise. Looks like they start from about Wilmington
Speaker 7: give or Takedown through the South Carolina beaches where we
Speaker 7: even have a tropical storm warning. So that's about as
Speaker 7: close as any of the impacts as we go through
Speaker 7: tomorrow come from Milton, but it's gonna be rough out
Speaker 7: there in the water. Some small craft advisories also, but
Speaker 7: dry for everybody else. Milton was taken down to a
Speaker 7: CAT four with the eight o'clock update, but still one
Speaker 7: fifty five forecast to come in near Sarasota now at
Speaker 7: one thirty, so minimal low end CAT four, but it
Speaker 7: doesn't really matter. Three Cap four not gonna make much
Speaker 7: of a difference historic water rise forecast. If some of
Speaker 7: these are realized, some of these water rises ten fifteen
Speaker 7: feet in the highest peak of the storms are getting
Speaker 7: controlled by the way. Yeah, there's there's a lot.
Speaker 1: Like I saw one of the weather the women weather reporters.
Speaker 1: She's got like the raging waters behind her. It's a
Speaker 1: whole green screen thing. It was amazing.
Speaker 7: So yeah, it's it's pretty incredible with that and IMR
Speaker 7: stuff is.
Speaker 1: But yeah, water.
Speaker 7: Rise, if the track changes, it's it's I don't think
Speaker 7: it's going to be by much. But you know, now
Speaker 7: we're talking about places like a Fort Myers that was
Speaker 7: devastated by Ian and those areas, and you know, Sarasota
Speaker 7: could be the Bulls Eye right now around midnight, you're
Speaker 7: just thereafter for landfall, but already seeing some of the rain.
Speaker 7: It's kind of detached from the main circulation, but there's
Speaker 7: already been heavy rain and severe weather in parts of
Speaker 7: central and South Florida.
Speaker 1: So well, it's begun. Well, you got a long day ahead.
Speaker 1: I don't know if we'll even be talking to you
Speaker 1: tomorrow or maybe somebody, but we'll get through it, and
Speaker 1: I appreciate it, Okay,
